     (i)  Contract Payments shall be paid to the Owner on the Interest Payment
          Dates, if any, and the Repayment Dates. All monies payable to or by
          the Insurance Company under this Contract shall be made via wire
          transfer in immediately available funds or other mutually agreed upon
          method in the Currency. (INSERT IF INTEREST BEARING CONTRACT) [The
          amount of the Contract Payment for an Interest Payment Date shall
          include accrued but previously unpaid Interest plus any Additional
          Amounts which may be due and owing at such time. If an Interest
          Payment Date is also a Repayment Date, the Contract Payment will
          include the portion of the Deposit scheduled to be repaid on such date
          plus Interest accrued but not previously paid in accordance with
          Schedule A. If a Repayment Date is not also an Interest Payment Date,
          the Contract Payment will include the portion of the Deposit scheduled
          to be repaid on such date plus any Additional Amounts which may be due
          and owing at such time, but will not include any accrued but
          previously unpaid Interest; provided, however, that if on the
          Repayment Date, a percentage of the balance of the Guaranteed Fund is
          specified in Schedule A to be paid to the Owner, then such payment
          will include a pro rata portion of Interest and the Deposit.] If [an
          Interest Payment Date and/or] a Repayment Date is also the Maturity
          Date, the Contract Payment will equal (a) the balance of the
          Guaranteed Fund on that date, plus (b) Additional Amounts which may be
          due and owing at that time, if any. Concurrent with the Insurance
          Company making such Contract Payment on the Maturity Date, all rights
          and obligations under this Contract shall terminate.

     (ii) In addition to the scheduled payments set forth in Section 3.1(i)
          (INSERT THE FOLLOWING IF AN EXTENDIBLE NOTE SERIES) [and Section 3.7],
          in the event that the Trust purchases some or all of the Notes in the
          open market (or otherwise) with the prior written consent of the
          Insurance Company as to both the making of such purchase and the
          purchase price to be paid for such Notes (such right of consent to be
          exercised in the Insurance Company's sole discretion), a Contract
          Payment equal to such portion (or the entirety) of the current balance
          of the Deposit in the Guaranteed Fund as may be necessary to fund the
          purchase of such Notes shall be paid to or at the direction of the
          Trust on such date or dates to which the Trust and the Insurance
          Company may agree. [If the purchase price for the Notes the Trust is
          purchasing includes a premium above the outstanding principal of such
          Notes, the Insurance Company will also pay to the Trust an additional
          amount equal to such excess.] Upon such payment, the balance of the
          Deposit shall be reduced (a) with respect to any purchase of Fixed
          Rate Notes or Floating Rate Notes by the Trust, by an amount equal to
          the aggregate principal amount of the Notes as purchased (or the
          portion thereof applicable to this Contract), and (b) with respect to
          any purchase of Notes other than Fixed Rate Notes or Floating Rate
          Notes by the Trust, by an amount to be agreed between the Trust and
          the Insurance Company to reflect such Contract Payment under this
          Contract.

     (iii) If a Contract Payment is not made as scheduled due to the closure,
          for any reason, of the wire transfer system(s) or financial market(s)
          in one or more Principal Financial Centers, that Contract Payment
          shall be paid on the first Business Day thereafter that the relevant
          systems and markets are open. In the event a Contract Payment is so
          delayed, the total dollar amount of the delayed Contract Payment when
          paid shall [be increased to include Interest earned and credited on
          the delayed Contract Payment amount at the then existing Interest Rate
          from the date such payment was scheduled to be made up to, but not
          including, the date the delayed Contract Payment is made. Contract
          Payments scheduled to be made subsequent to the delayed Contract
          Payment shall remain unchanged by the delay.] OR [remain unchanged and
          shall include only such amounts of Interest and Deposit as were
          originally included in that payment, with subsequent scheduled
          Contract Payments also unchanged by the delay.]

     (iv) Notwithstanding any provision in this Contract which may be to the
          contrary, no adjustments will be made to amounts owed hereunder if a
          Contract Payment is delayed as a result of the Owner's failure to
          provide complete and accurate wire transfer instructions to the

     (V)  [Contract Payments will be computed on a book value basis (INSERT IF

          Contract, plus accrued Amortized Amounts, less previous Contract
          Payments, if any),] without adjustment for investment gain or loss.]

     (vi) Unless a different Business Day Convention is specified in Schedule A
          with regard to certain Contract Payments, all Contract Payments shall
          be subject to the Business Day Convention specified in Section I of
          Schedule A.

3.2  Optional Redemptions or Repayments

     If so specified in Schedule A and subject to any restrictions provided

     Payments in an amount sufficient to redeem or repay the Notes backed by

     contained in such Notes. The Insurance Company may require reasonable

     and conditions described in the prospectus, prospectus supplement and/or
     pricing supplement applicable to such Note(s).

3.6  Additional Amounts

     (i)  All payments due to be made by the Insurance Company to the Owner
          under the terms of this Contract will be made without any withholding
          or deduction for or on account of any Taxes unless the Insurance
          Company has specified in Schedule A that they have agreed to pay
          Additional Amounts or such withholding or deduction is required by
          law. Subject to Section 4.3, if such withholding or deduction is
          required by law and the Insurance Company has specified in Schedule A
          that they have agreed to pay Additional Amounts, the Insurance Company
          will pay such Additional Amounts as may be required so that the amount
          received by the Trust or a Beneficial Note Owner under its Note(s), as
          applicable (net of any such withholding or deduction under this
          Contract or any Note(s)), will equal the amount that would have been
          paid under this Contract or under any such Note(s), as the case may
          be, had no such deduction or withholding been required.

     (ii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Insurance Company
          shall not be required to make any payment of any Additional Amounts in
          accordance with Section 3.6(i) for or on account of:

          (a)  any Taxes imposed which would not have been imposed but for the
               existence of (1) any present or former connection between the
               Trust or a Beneficial Note Owner and the United States,
               including, without limitation, being or having been a citizen or
               resident thereof, or being or having been present therein or
               engaged in a trade or business therein, or (2) the Trust's or
               such Beneficial Note Owner's status as incorporated therein, or
               having or having had a permanent establishment therein, or being
               or having been a controlled foreign corporation, a personal
               holding company, a passive foreign investment company, a
               corporation that has accumulated earnings to avoid United States
               federal income tax or a private foundation or other tax-exempt
               organization, or being or having been an actual or constructive
               owner of 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all
               shares of the Insurance Company;

          (b)  any Taxes imposed which would not have been imposed but for the
               presentation by the Trust of this Contract or by a Beneficial
               Note Owner of any related Note(s) to the Trust (where
               presentation is required) for payment on a date more than 30 days
               after the date on which such payment becomes due and payable or
               the date on which payment is duly provided for, whichever occurs
               later, except to the extent the Trust or the Beneficial Note
               Owner would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had this
               Contract or the Note(s), as the case may be, been presented on
               the last day of such period of [30 days];

          (c)  any Taxes which are imposed or withheld solely by reasons of the
               failure of the Trust or a Beneficial Note Owner to comply with
               certification, identification or information reporting
               requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or
               connection with the United States of the Trust or Beneficial Note
               Owner, if compliance is required by statute, by regulation of the
               United States Treasury Department, by judicial or administrative
               interpretation of such statute or regulation or by an applicable
               income tax treaty to which the United States is a party as a
               precondition to exemption from such Taxes;

          (d)  any inheritance, gift, estate, personal property, sales or
               transfer Taxes;


                                     Page 9
<PAGE>
          (e)  any Taxes that are payable otherwise than by withholding from
               payments in respect of this Contract or the related Notes;

          (f)  any Taxes which are imposed by reason of the Trust or a
               Beneficial Note Owner being or having been a bank for United
               States federal income tax purposes whose receipt of interest on
               the Notes is described in section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code;

          (g)  any Taxes imposed by reason of payments on this Contract or the
               related Notes being treated as contingent interest described in
               section 871(h)(4) of the Code;

          (h)  any Taxes that would not have been imposed but for an election by
               the Trust or a Beneficial Note Owner the effect of which is to
               make payment in respect of the Notes subject to United States
               federal income tax;

          (i)  any tax, duty, levy, assessment or governmental charge of any
               taxing authority other than the United States, any political
               subdivision thereof or any authority or agency therein or thereof
               having the power to tax; or

          (j)  any combination of items (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h)
               and (i) above.

               York City time, on the last Business Day in such notice period,
               at which time such election notice will become irrevocable.

     (ii) If, on an Election Date, the Owner does not notify the Insurance
          Company as provided in Section 3.7(i) that it is electing to extend
          the Initial Maturity Date or notifies the Insurance Company that it is
          extending the Initial Maturity Date with respect to only a portion of
          the Deposit, such portion of the Deposit for which the Initial
          Maturity Date has not been extended
