We rely on statements made in the application for the policy. These statements, in the absence of fraud, are deemed representations and not warranties. 2.3 MODIFICATION No one can change any part of this policy except the Owner and one of our officers. Both must agree to a change, and it must be in writing. No agent may change this policy or waive any of its provisions. 2.4 INCONTESTABLE CLAUSE We will not contest this policy from its Policy Date. 2.5 MISSTATEMENT OF AGE OR SEX We have the right to correct benefits for misstated Age or sex. In such an event, benefits will be the amount the premium actually paid would have bought at the correct Age or sex. 2.6 RETURN OF POLICY AND POLICY SETTLEMENT We reserve the right to have this policy sent to the Company for any: a. modification; b. death settlement; c. surrender; d. assignment; e. change of Owner or Beneficiary; f. election; or g. exercise of any policy privilege. 2.7 TERMINATION This policy ends when any one of the following events occurs: a. the Owner requests that the policy be canceled; 8 b. the Annuitant dies; c. the policy is surrendered; or d. all of the value is applied to a fixed payment option. We also reserve the right to terminate the policy if the accumulated value is $0 on any Policy Anniversary. 2.8 NONPARTICIPATION This policy does not share in the Company's surplus or profits. SECTION 3 -- OWNERSHIP AND BENEFICIARY 3.1 OWNERSHIP The Owner has all rights, title and interest in the policy prior to the Retirement Date and while the Annuitant is living. You may exercise all rights and options stated in the policy, subject to the rights of any irrevocable Beneficiary. Upon the death of any Owner, the interest of any surviving Owner will take precedence over the interest of any Beneficiary. 3.2 BENEFICIARY Beneficiaries are as named in the application, unless changed by the Owner. Unless the beneficiary designation provides otherwise, if any Beneficiary in a class dies before the Annuitant, that Beneficiary's interest will pass to the other Beneficiaries in the class. Secondary or contingent Beneficiaries will have the right to receive the death benefit only if no primary Beneficiary survives. If no Beneficiary survives the Annuitant, the death benefit will be paid in one sum to the Owner, if living; otherwise to the Owner's estate. In finding and identifying Beneficiaries we may rely on sworn statements, other facts, or evidence we deem satisfactory. Any benefits we pay based on such information will be a valid discharge of our duty up to the amount paid. 3.3 CHANGE OF OWNER OR BENEFICIARY The Owner may change ownership or the beneficiary designation at any time during the lifetime of the Annuitant unless otherwise provided in the current designation. Any change is subject to the following rules: a. the change must be made in writing on a form acceptable to the Company; b. it must be signed by all irrevocable Beneficiaries; c. if the Owner is more than one person, the written notice for change must be signed by all persons named as Owner; d. the form must be sent to our Home Office and recorded by the Company; e. the change will take effect on the date signed, but it will not apply to any payment or action by us before we record the form; and f. a change of beneficiary designation will automatically revoke any previous designations. 3.4 ASSIGNMENT No assignment of this policy will bind us unless: a. it is in writing on a form acceptable to us; b. it is signed by all persons named as Owner and all irrevocable Beneficiaries; and c. it is received by the Company at our Home Office. We will not be responsible for the validity 9 of an assignment. SECTION 4 -- PREMIUMS 4.1 PREMIUM PAYMENT Premium payments may be made at any time subject to the terms of this policy. However, we reserve the right to limit or restrict the amount of a premium payment as we deem appropriate. Premiums are to be paid at our Home Office. 4.2 ALLOCATION OF PREMIUM The Owner will determine the percentage of premium that will be allocated to each subaccount of the Variable Account and to the Declared Interest Option. The Owner may choose to allocate all the premium, a percentage or nothing to a particular subaccount or to the Declared Interest Option. Any allocation must be for at least 10% of the individual premium payment. A fractional percent may not be chosen. On the Policy Date, premiums will be initially allocated to the money market subaccount. On the 11th day following the Policy Date, we will transfer part or all of the accumulated value in the money market subaccount to the subaccounts or the Declared Interest Option in accordance with the premium allocation percentages shown in the application. Subsequent premiums will be allocated in accordance with the premium allocation percentages shown in the application or the most recent written instructions of the Owner. The Owner may change the allocation for future premiums at any time, subject to the following rules: a. the policy must be in force; b. there must be an accumulated value; c. the change must be in writing on a form acceptable to us; d. the form must be signed by the Owner; and e. the change will take effect no later than the Business Day following the date we receive the signed form at our Home Office. A change of allocation of future premiums does not affect current accumulated values. SECTION 5 -- DEATH BENEFITS 5.1 DEATH BENEFIT AT DEATH OF ANNUITANT PRIOR TO RETIREMENT DATE If the Annuitant dies prior to the Retirement Date and the Annuitant is not an Owner, we will pay the death benefit to the Beneficiary. The Beneficiary may elect to apply this sum under one of the annuity payment options as Payee. See Section 5.2 if you are the Annuitant. We will pay the death benefit to the Beneficiary: a. if the Annuitant dies before the Retirement Date; b. within two months after receipt by us of due proof of the Annuitant's death; c. if the policy is in force on the date of the Annuitant's death; and d. subject to the terms and conditions of this policy. 5.2 DEATH OF OWNER If an Owner dies prior to the Retirement Date and the Owner's spouse is a surviving Beneficiary or a surviving joint Owner, the policy may be continued to the extent of such spouse's interest in the 10 policy. If an Owner dies prior to the Retirement Date and the Owner's spouse is neither a surviving Beneficiary nor a surviving joint Owner, we will pay the Death Benefit to the Beneficiary in one sum within 5 years of the deceased Owner's death. The Beneficiary may elect (within 60 days of the date we receive Due Proof of Death) to apply this sum under one of the annuity payment options as Payee, provided: a. payments under the annuity payment option begin not later than 1 year after the Owner's death; and b. payments will be payable for the life of the Beneficiary, or over a period not greater than the Beneficiary's life expectancy. If any Owner dies on or after the Retirement Date, but before all proceeds payable under this contract have been distributed, we will continue payments to the Annuitant (or, if the deceased Owner was the Annuitant, to the Beneficiary) under the payment method in effect at the time of the deceased Owner's death. For purposes of this section, if any Owner of this contract is not an individual, the death of the Annuitant shall be treated as the death of an Owner. 5.3 DEATH BENEFIT AT DEATH OF ANNUITANT DURING ACCUMULATION PERIOD If the Annuitant's Age on the Policy Date is: a. less than 76, the death benefit will be equal to the greater of: i. the sum of all premium payments less the sum of all partial withdrawal reductions, as of the date Due Proof of Death is received, ii. the accumulated value as of the date Due Proof of Death is received, or iii. the Performance Enhanced Death Benefit (PEDB) amount as of the date Due Proof of Death is received; The Performance Enhanced Death Benefit (PEDB) amount on the Policy Date is zero. The PEDB amount is recalculated on each Policy Anniversary. At the time of each recalculation, the PEDB amount is equal to the greater of: 1. the previous PEDB amount, or 2. the accumulated value as of the calculation date; In addition, these events cause a recalculation: 1. with each additional premium payment, the PEDB is increased by the amount of each additional premium, and 2. with each partial withdrawal reduction, the PEDB amount is decreased by the amount of each partial withdrawal reduction; We will recalculate the PEDB as described above until the Policy Anniversary immediately prior to the Annuitant's age 91. After that, the PEDB amount is recalculated only for additional premium payments or partial withdrawal 11 reductions as described above. b. 76 or greater, the death benefit is equal to the greater of: i. the sum of all premium payments less the sum of all partial withdrawal reductions, as of the date Due Proof of Death is received, or ii. the accumulated value as of the date Due Proof of Death is received; For purposes of this section, partial withdrawal reduction is equal to "a" times "b" divided by "c" where: a. is the death benefit immediately prior to withdrawal; b. is the amount of the partial withdrawal; and c. is the accumulated value immediately prior to withdrawal. Notwithstanding any other provision of this policy, the policy will be administered in accordance with Section 72(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. SECTION 6 -- VARIABLE ACCOUNT 6.1 VARIABLE ACCOUNT We own the assets of the Variable Account. We will value the assets of the Variable Account each Business Day. The assets of such account will be kept separate from the assets of our General Account and any other separate accounts. Income, and realized and unrealized gains or losses from assets in the Variable Account will be credited to or charged against such account without regard to our other income, gains or losses. That portion of the assets of the Variable Account which equals the reserves and other policy liabilities of the policies which are supported by the Variable Account will not be charged with liabilities arising from any other business we conduct. We have the right to transfer to our General Account any assets of the Variable Account which are in excess of such reserves and other policy liabilities. While the Variable Account is registered with the SEC and thereby subject to SEC rules and regulations, it is also subject to the laws of the State of Iowa which regulate the operations of insurance companies incorporated in Iowa. We also reserve the right to transfer assets of the Variable Account, which we determine to be associated with the class of policies to which this policy belongs, to another separate account. If this type of transfer is made, the term "Variable Account," as used in this policy, shall then mean the Variable Account to which the assets were transferred. When permitted by law, we also reserve the right to: a. deregister the Variable Account under the Investment Company Act of 1940; b. manage the Variable Account under the direction of a committee; c. restrict or eliminate any voting rights of Owners, or other persons who have voting rights as to the Variable Account; and d. combine the Variable Account with other separate accounts. 6.2 SUBACCOUNTS The Variable Account is divided into subaccounts. Subject to obtaining any 12 approvals or consents required by applicable law, we reserve the right to eliminate or combine any subaccounts and the right to transfer the assets of one or more subaccounts to any other subaccount. We also reserve the right to add new subaccounts and make such subaccounts available to any class or series of policies as we deem appropriate. Each new subaccount would invest in a new investment option of a Fund, or in shares of another investment company. The Owner will determine the percentage of premium that will be allocated to each subaccount in accordance with the allocation of premium provision. 6.3 FUND INVESTMENT OPTIONS The Funds have one or more investment options each of which corresponds to one of the subaccounts of the Variable Account. Premiums allocated to a subaccount will automatically be invested in the Fund investment option associated with that subaccount. The Owner will share only in the income, gains or losses of the investment option(s) where shares are held. We have the right, subject to compliance with any applicable laws, to make: a. additions to; b. deletions from; or c substitutions for; the shares of a Fund investment option that are held by the Variable Account or that the Account may purchase. We also reserve the right to dispose of the shares of an investment option of the Fund listed on the policy data pages and to substitute shares of another investment option of such Fund or another mutual Fund investment option: a. if the shares of the investment option are no longer available for investment; or b. if in our judgment further investment in the investment option should become inappropriate in view of the purposes of the Variable Account. In the event of any substitution or change, we may, by appropriate endorsement, make such changes in this and other policies as may be necessary or appropriate to reflect the substitution or change. 6.4 TRANSFERS The Owner may transfer all or part of the accumulated value among the subaccounts of the Variable Account and between the subaccounts and the Declared Interest Option, subject to the following rules: a. the transfer request must be in writing on a form acceptable to us; b. the form must be signed by the Owner; c. the transfer will take effect as of the end of the Valuation Period during which we receive the signed form at our Home Office; d. the Owner may transfer amounts among the subaccounts of the Variable Account an unlimited number of times in a Policy Year; e. the Owner may transfer amounts from the Declared Interest Option to the Variable Account an unlimited number of times; amounts transferred from the Declared Interest Option are 13 considered transferred on a last-in-first-out basis; f. the first 12 transfers in each Policy Year will be made without a transfer charge; thereafter, each time amounts are transferred a transfer charge may be imposed; this transfer charge is shown on the Policy Data pages; g. the accumulated value on the date of the transfer will not be affected by the transfer except to the extent of the transfer charge that will be deducted on a pro rata basis from the Declared Interest Option and/or the subaccounts to which the transfer is made; h. the Owner must transfer at least: i. a total of $100, or ii. the total accumulated value in the subaccount or the total accumulated value in the Declared Interest Option, if the total amount transferred is less than $100; i. no more than 25% of the accumulated value in the Declared Interest Option may be transferred at one time unless the balance in the Declared Interest Option after the transfer would be less than $1,000; if the balance in the Declared Interest Option would fall below $1,000, the entire accumulated value in the Declared Interest Option may be transferred. SECTION 7 -- ACCUMULATED VALUE BENEFITS 7.1 ACCUMULATED VALUE The accumulated value of this policy will be the sum of: a. the variable accumulated value; plus b. the Declared Interest Option accumulated value. All of the values are the same or more than the minimums set by the laws of the state where the policy is delivered. 7.2 SURRENDER VALUE The surrender value of this policy will be the accumulated value less any Surrender Charge. All of the values are the same or more than the minimums set by the laws of the state where the policy is delivered. 7.3 VARIABLE ACCUMULATED VALUE The initial variable accumulated value is the total amount of premium, if any, allocated to the money market subaccount valued no later than the Business Day following the day we receive a completed application and the minimum initial premium. After such date, the policy's variable accumulated value is equal to the sum of the policy's accumulated value in each subaccount. The value in a subaccount is equal to "a" multiplied by "b" where: a. is the current number of subaccount units; and b. is the current unit value. The variable accumulated value will vary from Business Day to Business Day reflecting changes in "a" and "b" above. 7.4 SUBACCOUNT UNITS When transactions are made which affect the variable accumulated value, dollar amounts are converted to subaccount units. The number of subaccount units for a transaction is determined by dividing 14 the dollar amount of the transaction by the current unit value. The number of units for a subaccount increases when: a. premiums are allocated to that subaccount; or b. transfers from the Declared Interest Option or other subaccounts are credited to that subaccount. The number of units for a subaccount decreases when: a. the Owner makes a surrender or partial withdrawal from that subaccount; b. transfers are made from that subaccount to the Declared Interest Option or other subaccounts; or c. the Annual Administrative Charge shown on the Policy Data pages is deducted (the Annual Administrative Charge will be prorated among the subaccounts and the Declared Interest Option). 7.5 UNIT VALUE The unit value for each subaccount was set initially at $10.00 when the subaccounts first purchased Fund shares. The unit value for each subsequent Valuation Period is calculated by dividing "a" by "b", where: a. is: i. the value of the net assets of the subaccount at the end of the preceding Valuation Period, plus ii. the investment income and capital gains, realized or unrealized, credited to the net assets of that subaccount during the current Valuation Period, minus iii. the capital losses, realized or unrealized, charged against those net assets during the current Valuation Period, minus iv. any amount charged against the subaccount for taxes, or any amount set aside during the Valuation Period by the Company as a provision for taxes attributable to the operation or maintenance of that subaccount, minus v. the mortality and expense risk shown on the Policy Data pages; this charge may go up or down but will never exceed 0.0034035% of the net daily assets in that subaccount for the current Valuation Period; the maximum charge corresponds to a charge of 1.25% per year of the average daily net assets of the subaccount for mortality and expense risks; b. is the number of units outstanding at the end of the preceding Valuation Period. We will value the net assets in each subaccount at their fair market value in accordance with accepted accounting practices and applicable laws and regulations. 7.6 DECLARED INTEREST OPTION ACCUMULATED VALUE The Declared Interest Option accumulated value as of the 11th day following the Policy Date is the accumulated value allocated to the Declared Interest Option as of that date. Thereafter, the Declared Interest Option accumulated value changes every Valuation Period. 15 The Declared Interest Option accumulated value increases when: a. premiums are allocated to the Declared Interest Option; b. transfers from the subaccounts are credited to the Declared Interest Option; or c. any interest is credited to the Declared Interest Option. The Declared Interest Option accumulated value decreases when: a. the Owner makes a partial withdrawal from the Declared Interest Option; b. transfers are made from the Declared Interest Option to the subaccounts; or c. the Annual Administrative Charge shown on the Policy Data pages is deducted (the Annual Administrative Charge will be prorated among the subaccounts and the Declared Interest Option). For the purposes of the above calculation, interest does not accrue on amounts deducted for policy charges, on amounts transferred from or on amounts surrendered or withdrawn from the Declared Interest Option. Interest is accrued on the accumulated value of the Declared Interest Option on a daily basis and is credited no less frequently than once a Policy Year. 7.7 DECLARED INTEREST OPTION INTEREST The guaranteed minimum interest rate applied to the Declared Interest Option accumulated value is an effective rate of 3% per year. Interest in excess of the minimum rate may be applied. The amount of the excess interest credited for any Policy Year will be set by us at the start of that Policy Year and will be guaranteed for such year. The Declared Interest Option interest rate may vary according to the amount of the Declared Interest Option Accumulated Value, as shown on the Policy Data pages. 7.8 SURRENDER Before the Retirement Date and while the Annuitant lives, the Owner may surrender the policy, subject to the following rules: a. the Owner must send a written request to us along with such information or evidence as may be required by law or as may be needed to process the request; b. the amount of any such surrender will be paid in cash at the Owner's request or we will apply part or all of it under a payment option; c. the amount of accumulated value surrendered may be subject to a Surrender Charge; and d. upon surrender, the policy will terminate. 7.9 SURRENDER CHARGE The Surrender Charge period begins on the Policy Date; the Surrender Charge varies by Policy Year as shown on the Policy Data pages. If all of the accumulated value is applied to a payment option agreement under payment option B, C, D, I or II, the Surrender Charge will be reduced as follows: a. if option C, I or II is used, the Surrender Charge will be zero; or 16 b. if option B or D is used, the Surrender Charge schedule will be carried forward into the payment option agreement; however, the fixed number of years for which payment will be made is added to the number of years the policy has been in force to determine what the charge will be (for purposes of determining the fixed number of years under option D, the interest rate currently offered on the effective date of the payment option agreement will be used). No Surrender Charge will apply if the proceeds are applied to a variable payment option. 7.10 TEN PERCENT WITHDRAWAL PRIVILEGE Each Policy Year after the first Policy Year, the Owner may withdraw up to 10% of accumulated value under the policy without being subject to the Surrender Charge (the "ten percent withdrawal amount"). Under the ten percent withdrawal privilege, the Owner may withdraw up to the ten percent withdrawal amount through a single withdrawal or multiple withdrawals in a Policy Year. For purposes of determining the ten percent withdrawal amount, we calculate the percentage of accumulated value a withdrawal represents at the time of withdrawal. The unused portion of the ten percent withdrawal amount in a Policy Year will not carry over to any subsequent Policy Year. 7.11 WAIVER OF SURRENDER CHARGE The Owner may make a partial withdrawal or full surrender without incurring a Surrender Charge if the Annuitant becomes eligible for waiver of the Surrender Charge. The waiver of the Surrender Charge is subject to the following rules: a. we must receive a written request on a form acceptable to us signed by the Owner; b. the policy must be in force or not providing benefits under any payment option; and c. proof must be provided of the Annuitant's Eligibility for Waiver of Surrender Charge, including an attending physician's statement and any other proof we may require; we reserve the right to seek a second medical opinion or have an examination of the Annuitant performed at our expense by a physician we choose. 7.12 PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL While the Annuitant lives and prior to the Retirement Date, the Owner may withdraw a portion of the accumulated value, subject to the following rules: a. the amount of any partial withdrawal must be at least $500; b. if the surrender value after a partial withdrawal is less than $2,000, we have the right to pay the remaining surrender value to the Owner as a full surrender; c. the accumulated value will be reduced by the amount of any partial withdrawal and any Surrender Charge applying to such withdrawal; the Owner may tell us how to allocate a partial withdrawal among the subaccounts and the Declared Interest Option; if the Owner does not so instruct, we will prorate the partial withdrawal among the subaccounts 17 and the Declared Interest Option; the allocation will be in the same proportion that the accumulated value in each of the subaccounts and the accumulated value in the Declared Interest Option bears to the total accumulated value on the date we receive the request; and d. amounts withdrawn from the Declared Interest Option are considered withdrawn on the last-in-first-out basis. 7.13 DELAY OF PAYMENT Proceeds from full surrenders and partial withdrawals will usually be mailed to the Owner within 7 days after the Owner's signed request is received in our Home Office. We will usually mail any death claim proceeds within 7 days after we receive Due Proof of Death. We have the right to delay such payment whenever: a. the New York Stock Exchange is closed other than on customary weekends and any holiday closing; b. trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted as determined by the SEC; c. the SEC, by order, permits postponement for the protection of policyowners; or d. as a result of an emergency, as determined by the SEC, it is not reasonably possible to dispose of securities or to determine the value of the net assets of the Variable Account. We have the right to defer payment which is derived from any amount paid to us by check or draft until we are satisfied the check or draft has been paid by the bank on which it is drawn. We also have the right to delay payment from the Declared Interest Option for up to 6 months from the date we receive the Owner's request for full surrender, partial withdrawal or transfer. 7.14 TAX CHARGES The Company may deduct state and local government premium tax from the accumulated value, if such taxes are applicable in your state. The Company may also make a charge against the accumulated value of this policy for any tax or economic burden on the Company resulting from the application of federal, state or local tax laws that the Company determines to be properly attributable to the separate account or the policies. The charge will be applied by: a. redeeming the number of subaccount units from the Separate Account equal to the pro rata share of the charge applicable to the subaccounts; or b. deducting from the Declared Interest Option accumulated value the pro rata portion of the charge applicable to the Declared Interest Option. 7.15 ANNUAL REPORT At least once each year we will send a report, without charge, to the Owner which shows: a. all premiums paid and charges made since the last report; b. the current accumulated value including the value in each subaccount and the Declared Interest Option; and c. any partial withdrawals since the last report. An illustrative report will be sent to the Owner upon request. A fee may be charged for this report. 18 SECTION 8 -- PAYMENT OPTIONS The provisions in this section apply to both the fixed and variable payment options. 8.1 PAYEE(S) is the primary Payee(s) as named in the payment option agreement. Upon the death of the primary Payee or the last survivor in a class of Payees, it means any contingent Payees who become Payees under this agreement. The interest of any Payee in a class who dies before the Payee will pass to any survivors of the class, share and share alike, unless otherwise provided in the payment option agreement. If no Payee in a class survives, we will pay the proceeds to the next contingent Payee(s). If no contingent Payee survives, we will pay the proceeds to the estate of the last Payee to die. 8.2 PROCEEDS means the total amount the Payee applies to a fixed or variable payment option on the effective date of the payment option agreement. 8.3 CHOOSING AN OPTION The Owner may choose to have the proceeds of this policy paid under a payment option. After the death of an Annuitant who is an Owner, the Beneficiary may choose an option if the Owner had not done so before the Annuitant's death. If the Beneficiary does not choose a payment option, we will pay the proceeds of this policy according to the Company's published default payment option in effect on the date of death. If the deceased Annuitant was an Owner, see Section 5.2 as to certain limitations as to a Beneficiary's right to choose a payment option. We may also fulfill our obligation under this policy by paying the proceeds in one sum if: a. the proceeds are less than $2,000; b. periodic payments become less than $20; or c. the Payee is an assignee, estate, trustee, partnership, corporation or association. 8.4 PAYMENT OPTION AGREEMENT; EFFECTIVE DATE We will send a payment option agreement if any payment option is chosen. If all of the value of this policy is applied to a fixed payment option, the payment option agreement will replace this policy. If any of the value is applied to a variable payment option, this policy will remain in force; however, if all of the value is applied to a variable payment option, the Annual Administrative Charge and the charges for riders, if any, will no longer apply. All sums to be paid by the Company under this policy are considered paid when tendered by us at our Home Office. If a payment option has been chosen by the Owner, it is effective on the date the proceeds of this policy are due. If a Beneficiary chooses a payment option, it is effective on the date the election is received by us. The first payment under Option B, C or D is due on the effective date. The first payment under Option A is due at the end of the payment period chosen. 8.5 DEATH OF PAYEE If a Payee dies, any remaining payments will be paid to a contingent Payee. If no Payee survives, we will pay the commuted value of any remaining payments to the estate of the last Payee to die. 19 8.6 WITHDRAWAL OF PROCEEDS The Payee may not withdraw the funds under a payment option unless agreed to in the payment option agreement. We have the right to defer a withdrawal from a fixed payment option for up to 6 months. We may also refuse to allow partial withdrawals of less than $500. 8.7 CLAIMS OF CREDITORS Payments under any payment option will be exempt from the claims of creditors to the maximum extent allowed by law. SECTION 9 -- FIXED PAYMENT OPTIONS 9.1 FIXED PAYMENT OPTION CHOICES The fixed payment options, which are supported by the Company's General Account, are: OPTION A -- PROCEEDS LEFT AT INTEREST The proceeds will be left with the Company to earn interest. The Payee may leave the interest with the Company to accumulate or receive payments of interest only. If the Payee elects to receive interest payments, interest will be paid every 1, 3, 6 or 12 months. The rate of interest will be determined by the Company. OPTION B -- PAYMENT FOR A DESIGNATED NUMBER OF YEARS The proceeds will be paid out in equal installments for a designated number of years. OPTION C -- PAYMENT OF LIFE INCOME Payments will continue for the lifetime of the Payee, but for not less than the guaranteed period. The Owner or Payee may choose one of the guaranteed periods shown in the Option C - Payment of Life Income table in this policy. OPTION D -- PAYMENT OF A DESIGNATED AMOUNT The proceeds will be paid out in equal installments of a specified amount. The payments will continue until all proceeds plus interest have been paid out. OTHER OPTIONS The proceeds may be paid in any other manner requested and agreed to by us, or under any other payment options made available by the Company. 9.2 INTEREST AND MORTALITY The minimum interest rate used in computing any fixed payment option is 3% per year. Higher interest rates may be used on the effective date of the payment option agreement. We may at any time declare additional interest on these funds. The amount of additional interest and how it is determined will be set by the Company. The mortality table that is used for Option C is the "Annuity 2000" individual annuity mortality table. 20 FIXED PAYMENT OPTION TABLES (PER $1,000 OF PROCEEDS)

21 SECTION 10 -- VARIABLE PAYMENT OPTIONS 10.1 VARIABLE PAYMENT OPTION CHOICES The variable payment options are: OPTION I -- PAYMENT OF LIFE INCOME Payments will continue for the lifetime of the Payee, but for not less than the guaranteed period. The Owner or Payee may choose one of the guaranteed periods shown in the Variable Payment Option I table in this policy. OPTION II -- PAYMENT OF JOINT AND SURVIVOR LIFE INCOME Payments will continue as long as one or both of two Payees are alive. 10.2 ANNUITY UNIT An accounting unit of measure used to calculate the amount of payments. 10.3 FIXED INTEREST OPTION Is an allocation choice whereby payments made are based on a guaranteed interest rate equal to the assumed interest rate. The fixed interest option is supported by the General Account. The Payee may allocate proceeds to the fixed interest option and any of the subaccounts. 10.4 ALLOCATION On the date the proceeds are applied to a variable payment option, the Payee(s) will determine the percentage of proceeds that will be allocated to the subaccounts and to the fixed interest option. Any allocation must be for at least 10% of the proceeds. A fractional percent may not be chosen. 10.5 EXCHANGES OF ANNUITY UNITS The Payee(s) may exchange annuity units of one subaccount for those of another on a dollar equivalent basis. The Payee(s) may exchange annuity units among the subaccounts an unlimited number of times in a contract year. The following rules apply to exchanges: a. the exchange request must be in writing on a form acceptable to us; and b. the exchange will take effect as of the end of the Valuation Period during which we receive the request at our Home Office. 10.6 COMMUTED VALUE The value payable at full surrender of the variable payment option will be equal to: a. the commuted value of payments remaining in the guaranteed period, if any; minus b. a commutation fee varying by contract year since the effective date of the payment option agreement as shown below:
CONTRACT YEAR COMMUTATION FEE OF PAYMENT (AS A PERCENT OF OPTION ORIGINAL PROCEEDS) -------------------------------------------- 1 7% 2 6 3 5 4 4 5 3 6 2 Thereafter 0
The interest rate used to compute the commuted value of any unpaid payments remaining in the guaranteed period will be the assumed interest rate. Each payment under a variable payment option will be assumed to be equal to the number of 22 annuity units times the applicable annuity unit value. 10.7 AMOUNT OF VARIABLE PAYMENTS The amount of the first payment under a variable payment option is equal to: a. the number of thousands of dollars of proceeds applied to the option; times b. the factor per $1,000 for the option, from the Variable Payment Option Tables. The amount of each later payment is equal to the sum for each subaccount of the number of annuity units times the applicable annuity unit value as of the end of the Valuation Period on the payment date selected. 10.8 ANNUITY UNIT VALUE The number of annuity units credited under a variable payment option for each subaccount is equal to: a. the amount of the first payment; times b. the initial subaccount percentage allocation; divided by c. the applicable annuity unit value as of the option's effective date. The number of annuity units remains constant. However, if the Payee(s) exchange annuity units among the subaccounts, the units are exchanged on a dollar equivalent basis. The annuity unit values depend on the assumed interest rate and on the net investment factor. An annuity unit value is determined for each subaccount for each Valuation Period. The annuity unit value of each subaccount for its first Valuation Period was set at $1.00. Each annuity unit value for each later Valuation Period is equal to: a. the annuity unit value for the immediately preceding Valuation Period; times b. the net investment factor for that Valuation Period; times c. the daily assumed interest factor for each day in that Valuation Period. 10.9 NET INVESTMENT FACTOR The net investment factor for each subaccount for each Valuation Period is determined by dividing "a" by "b" and subtracting "c" from the result, where: a. is equal to the net assets of the subaccount as of the end of the Valuation Period; plus the amount of all investment income and capital gains, realized or unrealized, credited to the net assets of the subaccount during the Valuation Period; minus the amount of capital losses, realized or unrealized, charged against the net assets during the Valuation Period; b. is equal to the net assets of the subaccount for the immediately preceding Valuation Period; and c. is a charge no greater than 0.0034035% of the net assets in the subaccount for each day in the Valuation Period. 10.10 ASSUMED INTEREST RATE AND FACTOR The assumed interest rate in the Variable Payment Option Tables is 5% per year. The daily assumed interest factor derived from an assumed interest rate of 5% is 0.9998663. We may also offer other assumed interest rates and other variable 23 payment options from time to time, which may be available at the time a payment option is elected. 434-062(05-02) 24 VARIABLE PAYMENT OPTION TABLES
