IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY

 

Information about the Security Life of Denver Insurance Company found in your policy prospectus and Statement of Additional Information is deleted and replaced with the following:

 

Security Life of Denver Insurance Company (“Security Life,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “company”) issues the variable universal life insurance policy described in this prospectus and is responsible for providing the policy’s insurance benefits. All guarantees and benefits provided under the policy that are not related to the variable account are subject to the claims paying ability of the company and our general account. We are a stock life insurance company organized in 1929 and incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado. We are admitted to do business in the District of Columbia and all states except New York. Our headquarters is at 8055 East Tufts Avenue, Suite 650, Denver, Colorado 80237.

 

We are an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Voya Financial, Inc. (“VoyaTM”), which until April 7, 2014, was known as ING U.S., Inc. In May, 2013, the common stock of Voya began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “VOYA” and Voya completed its initial public offering of common stock.

 

Voya is an affiliate of ING Groep N.V. (“ING”), a global financial institution active in the fields of insurance, banking and asset management. In 2009 ING announced the anticipated separation of its global banking and insurance businesses, including the divestiture of Voya, which together with its subsidiaries, including the company, constitutes ING’s U.S.-based retirement, investment management and insurance operations. As of March 25, 2014, ING’s ownership of Voya was approximately 43%. Under an agreement with the European Commission, ING is required to divest itself of 100% of Voya by the end of 2016.

The following chart lists the funds that are, effective May 1, 2014, available through the policies, along with each fund’s investment adviser/subadviser and investment objective. More detailed information about these funds can be found in the current prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for each fund.

There is no assurance that the stated investment objectives of any of the funds will be achieved. Shares of the funds will rise and fall in value and you could lose money by allocating policy value to the subaccounts that invest in the funds. Shares of the funds are not bank deposits and are not guaranteed, endorsed or insured by any financial institution, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

Policy owners who have policy value allocated to one or more of the subaccounts that correspond to these funds may leave their policy value in those subaccounts, but future allocations and transfers into those subaccounts are prohibited. If your most recent premium allocation instructions includes a subaccount that corresponds to one of these funds, premium received that would have been allocated to a subaccount corresponding to one of these funds may be automatically allocated among the other available subaccounts according to your most recent premium allocation instructions. If your most recent allocation instructions do not include any available funds, you must provide us with alternative allocation instructions or the premium payment will be returned to you. You may give us alternative allocation instructions by contacting Customer Service at P.O. Box 5065, Minot, ND 58702-5065, 1-877-253-5050 or www.ingservicecenter.com. See the Transfers section of your policy prospectus for information about making fund allocation changes.

 

Your failure to provide us with alternative allocation instructions before we return your premium payment(s) may result in your policy entering the 61 day grace period and/or your policy lapsing without value.

NOTICE OF AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT UPCOMING FUND REORGANIZATIONS

 

The following information only affects you if you currently invest in or plan to invest in the subaccounts that correspond to the funds referenced below.

 

The Board of Trustees of Voya Investors Trust approved a proposal to reorganize certain funds. Subject to shareholder approval, effective after the close of business on or about July 18, 2014 (the “Reorganization Effective Date”), the following Merging Funds will reorganize with and into the following Surviving Funds.

 

Merging Funds

Surviving Funds

VY BlackRock Health Sciences Opportunities Portfolio (Class I)

Voya Large Cap Growth Portfolio (Class I)

VY BlackRock Large Cap Growth Portfolio (Class I)

VY Marsico Growth Portfolio (Class I)

VY MFS Total Return Portfolio (Class I)

VY Invesco Equity and Income Portfolio (Class I)

VY MFS Utilities Portfolio (Class S)

Voya Large Cap Value Portfolio (Class I)

 

Voluntary Transfers Before the Reorganization Effective Date. Prior to the Reorganization Effective Date, you may transfer amounts allocated to a subaccount that invests in a Merging Fund to any other available subaccount or to the fixed account. See the Transfers section of your policy prospectus for information about making subaccount transfers, including applicable restrictions and limits on transfers.

 

On the Reorganization Effective Date. On the Reorganization Effective Date, your investment in a subaccount that invests in a Merging Fund will automatically become an investment in the subaccount that invests in the corresponding Surviving Fund with an equal total net asset value. You will not incur any tax liability because of this automatic reallocation, and your policy value immediately before the reallocation will equal your policy value immediately after the reallocation.

 

Automatic Investment in Class I Shares. On the Reorganization Effective Date, all existing account balances invested in Class S shares of the VY MFS Utilities Portfolio will automatically become investments in Class I shares of the Voya Large Cap Value Portfolio. Class I shares have 0.25% lower total fund expenses than Class S shares, and the effect of this transaction is to give policy owners an investment in a similar fund managed by the same investment adviser at a lower cost.

Automatic Fund Reallocation After the Reorganization Effective Date. After the Reorganization Effective Date, the Merging Funds will no longer be available through your policy. Unless you provide us with alternative allocation instructions, after the Reorganization Effective Date all allocations directed to a Subaccount that invested in a Merging Fund will be automatically allocated to the Subaccount that invests in the corresponding Surviving Fund. See the Transfers section of your policy prospectus for information about making fund allocation changes.

 

Allocation Instructions. You may give us alternative allocation instructions at any time by contacting Customer Service at P.O. Box 5065, Minot, ND 58702-5065, 1-877-253-5050 or www.ingservicecenter.com.
