Extended Legacy Program Guide




What is the Extended Legacy Program?



The Extended Legacy Program is a death claim settlement program that provides claimants of
SunAmerica variable annuities the opportunity to defer the distribution of claim proceeds while
retaining full discretionary access to them.




Extended Legacy Program



There are two options for this program.



Option 1 This option enables the claimant to defer taking a full distribution until December
31st of
the year containing the fifth anniversary of the deceased’s death. Any amounts
remaining in the account as of that date will automatically be distributed to the claimant. The
claimant may take discretionary distributions of up to 100% of the current value of the death claim
proceeds at any time during the five year period.



Option 2 This option enables the claimant to receive annual required minimum distributions,
generally over the claimant’s life expectancy, beginning no later than December 31st of
the year following the year of the deceased’s death. The claimant may take discretionary
distributions of up to 100% of the current value of the death claim proceeds at any time.



Both options have tax implications that should be considered before making a decision. We recommend
that you discuss your situation with a tax professional.




Program Availability



The Extended Legacy Program is available to claimants of products listed on page 2. One or both
options referenced above may not be available to certain claimants. Please review the Variable
Annuity Death Claim form (SA2200POS, U2200POS in NY) for additional information. Contact our
Annuity Service Center at (800) 445-7862 for information regarding availability.




How Do I Use This Guide?



If you elect the Extended Legacy Program, the applicable fees, features and investment options
available to you may differ from the fees, features and investment options available to the
original deceased Owner.



To review the applicable fees, features and investment options available to you:





	1.	 	Identify the product to which you are a claimant. The product name can be found in the
upper-right corner of the deceased’s last quarterly statement. If this same product name is in the
list of products on page 2 of this guide, you are eligible for the Extended Legacy Program. If this
product name is not in this list, this program is not available to you. Contact our Annuity Service
Center if you need assistance.
	 
	2.	 	Review the Variable Portfolio investment options available to you. Refer to the product
prospectus you received with this Guide that lists the investment options available to you.
Additional information regarding the investment options can be found in the fund prospectus
available at sunamerica.com or through our Annuity Service Center. You will be mailed a copy of the
fund prospectus for the available investment options if you elect the Extended Legacy Program.
	 
	3.	 	Write your investment allocation instructions on the Death Claim form. Indicate your investment
allocation instructions on page 10, Section I, of the Variable Annuity Death Claim form.
	 
	4.	 	Review the product prospectus disclosure. The product prospectus you received with this Guide
includes important information about the administrative features available to you. Please review
the sections of the prospectus related to Investment Options, Transfers, Dollar Cost Averaging,
Systematic Withdrawal, Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program, Extended Legacy Program, Separate
Account Expenses, Taxes and Other Information.
