GENERAL PROVISIONS


 


Entire Contract


The
Contract, this Certificate and any endorsements attached hereto, and the
Application, a copy of which is attached, constitute the entire contract. A
Certificate is a summary of the Contract.


 


5

















 


Modification


No
change or waiver of the terms of this Contract is valid unless made by us, in
Writing, and approved by our President, Vice President, or Secretary. We
reserve the right to change the provisions of the Contract and this Certificate
issued under the Contract to conform to any applicable laws, regulations or
rulings issued by a governmental agency.


 


Error in Age or Sex


Questions
in the Application concern the Annuitant’s date of birth and sex. If the date
of birth or sex given is not correct, the benefits under this Contract shall be
adjusted to the amount which would have been payable at the correct age and
sex. If we made any underpayments on account of any misstatement, the amount of
any underpayment shall be immediately paid in one sum. Any overpayments made
shall be deducted from the current or succeeding payments due under the
Contract.


 


Assignment


Upon
notice to us, you may assign your rights under this Contract. The assignment
must be in Writing and filed with us. We assume no responsibility for the
validity of any assignment. Any claim under any assignment shall be subject to
proof of interest and the extent of the assignment.


 


Settlement


Any
payment by us under this Contract is payable at our Home Office. The
Participant may elect to apply settlement proceeds, including any full or
partial surrender proceeds or the death benefit, to any payout option offered
by us for such payments at the time the election is made.


 


Facility of Payment


If
the Annuitant or Beneficiary is incapable of giving a valid receipt for any
payment, we may make such payment to whomever has assumed his or her care and
principal support. Any such payment shall fully discharge us to the extent of
that payment.


 


Proof of Age


Proof
of age is required before the first payment under an Annuity Option involving
lifetime payments.


 


Annual Reports


We
will send you a report at least once per year showing your Account Value,
Sub-Account Values and interest credited.


 


Annuity Commencement Date Changes


Upon
thirty days notice in Writing, you may change the Annuity Commencement Date.
The proposed Annuity Commencement Date you select cannot be before the end of
any Guaranteed Period or later than the Certificate Year closest to the Annuitant’s
85th birthday.


 


6
















 


Protection of Proceeds


To
the extent permitted by law, no benefits payable under this Certificate will be
subject to the claims of creditors of any payee.


 


CONTROL PROVISIONS


 


Annuitant


The
Participant may change the Annuitant prior to the Annuity Commencement Date.
The request must be in Writing. Once it is received and acknowledged at our
Home Office, any change will relate back to and take effect on the date the
request was signed. The Annuitant is the “Payee” for the purposes of the
Annuity Table.


 


Beneficiary


The
Beneficiary will be as shown in the Application. You may change the Beneficiary
at any time. To make a change, we must receive a written request satisfactory
to us at our Home Office. If the Beneficiary has been designated irrevocably,
however, such designation cannot be changed or revoked without the
Beneficiary’s written consent. Any such change will relate back to and take
effect on the date the request was signed. We will not be liable for any
payment we make before such request has been received and acknowledged at our
Home Office. Any payment which has become due to an Annuitant and has not been
paid prior to his or her death shall be paid to the Primary Beneficiary, if
living; otherwise to the Contingent Beneficiary.


 


Death of the Annuitant or Participant


If
an Annuitant is not a Participant and dies prior to the Annuity Commencement
Date, the Participant first named on the Application will become the new
Annuitant unless the Participant designates otherwise. If any Participant is
not a natural person, the death or change of the Annuitant will be treated as
the death of a Participant. If any Participant dies while this Certificate is
in force prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, a Death Benefit will be
payable to the Beneficiary.


 


Death Benefit


The
Death Benefit will be determined as of the date due proof of death is received
by the Company. If a claim for the Death Benefit is received at our Home Office
within 6 months of the date of death, the Death Benefit will equal the greater
of: (1) the Account Value, less applicable Premium Taxes; or (2) the
Net Account Value. If a claim is received past 6 months after the date of
death, the Death Benefit will equal the Net Account Value. If any Participant
of this Certificate is not a natural person, upon the change of the Annuitant,
the Death Benefit will equal the Net Account Value. Only one Death Benefit is
payable under this Certificate, even though the Certificate may continue beyond
a Participant’s death.


 


The
Death Benefit may be taken in one sum immediately. In all events, the entire
Death Benefit, including any interest accrued thereon, must be distributed
within five years of the date of death unless:


 


7

















 


(a)                                  it is payable over the life
of the Beneficiary with distributions beginning within one year of the date of
death; or


 


(b)                                 it is payable over a period
not extending beyond the life expectancy of the Beneficiary with distributions
beginning within one year of the date of death; or


 


(c)                                  the deceased Participant’s
spouse is the Beneficiary and, in lieu of receiving the Death Benefit,
continues the Certificate and becomes the new Participant.


 


If
the deceased Participant’s spouse continues the Certificate and becomes the new
Participant, upon such spouse’s death, a Death Benefit will become payable to
the new Beneficiary (determined at the time of the spouse’s death). the Death
Benefit, including any interest accrued thereon must be distributed within five
years of the spouse’s death.


 


PREMIUM TAXES


 


Premium
Taxes (including any related retaliatory taxes, if any) will be deducted, if
applicable. Premium Taxes may be deducted, as provided under applicable law,
from the Annuity Deposit when received, upon full or partial surrender, or from
the amount applied to effect an Annuity at the time the annuity payments
commence. Premium Taxes may also be deducted from the Death Benefit.


 


SURRENDERS - TERMINATION


 


Full
surrenders may be made at any time. Partial surrenders may only be made if each
remaining Sub-Account Value is at least $10,000. You must specify the
Sub-Accounts from which the partial surrender is to be made. If the Sub-Account
specified has the same Guaranteed Period as any other Sub-Account, the partial
surrender must come from the Sub-Account with the shortest time remaining in
the Guaranteed Period.


 


Surrender
Charges and Market Value Adjustments will not apply to full or partial
surrenders made at the end of an Initial or Subsequent Guaranteed Period. The
Surrender Value will equal the Sub-Account Value on this date. A request for a
surrender at the end of an Initial or Subsequent Guaranteed Period must be
received in Writing within twenty days prior to the end of such an Initial and
Subsequent Guaranteed Period.


 


The
Surrender Value will be calculated by the Company using the following formula:


 


(A - S - M - P), where:


 


A = the amount of the full or
partial surrender;


S = the amount of Surrender
Charge;


M = the amount of the Market
Value Adjustment;


P = the amount of unpaid Premium
Taxes, if any.


 


The
Company may defer payment of any partial or full surrender for the period
permitted by law. In no event will this deferral of payment exceed 6 months
from the date of receipt of the election to surrender partially or fully.


 


8

















 


Interest Withdrawals


If
you notify the Company in Writing at any time during the current Certificate
Year, the Company will send you all or a portion of the interest credited
during the prior Certificate Year. You may only make one withdrawal during a
Certificate Year. No Surrender Charge or Market Value Adjustment will be
imposed on such interest withdrawals.


 


INTEREST CREDITED AND GUARANTEED PERIODS


 


The
portion of each Annuity Deposit allocated to a Sub-Account will earn interest
at the Initial Guaranteed Interest Rate for each Certificate Year during the
Initial Guaranteed Period selected for that Sub-Account. A Guaranteed Period is
the period of years for which a rate of interest is guaranteed. You may select
from any Guaranteed Period offered by the Company under the Contract at the
time the Annuity Deposit or transfer is made. However, Guaranteed Periods
cannot extend beyond the Annuity Commencement Date.


 


You
may not transfer a Sub-Account Value to any existing or new Sub-Account(s) prior
to the end of the Sub-Account’s Guaranteed Period. At the end of any Guaranteed
Period a Subsequent Guaranteed Period will begin. Unless you elect a different
duration from among those then offered by us within twenty days prior to the
end of the previous Guaranteed Period, your Sub-Account Value will be
automatically transferred to a Subsequent Guaranteed Period of either (1) the
same duration as your previous Guaranteed Period if then offered by us; or (2) the
shortest duration then offered by us which is closest to the same duration as
your previous Guaranteed Period.


 


Your
Sub-Account Value at the beginning of any Subsequent Guaranteed Period will be
equal to your Sub-Account Value at the end of the Guaranteed Period just
ending. The Sub-Account Value will earn interest at the Subsequent Guaranteed
Interest Rate for each Certificate Year in the Subsequent Guaranteed Period. At
your request within twenty days prior to the end of any Guaranteed Period, the
Company will notify you of the then effective Subsequent Guaranteed Interest
Rate. The actual Subsequent Guaranteed Interest Rate will be determined at the
beginning of the Subsequent Guaranteed Period.


 


ANNUITY OPTIONS


 


Annuity Benefit


If
the Annuitant is alive on the Annuity Commencement Date and unless directed
otherwise, the Company will apply the Net Account Value according to the
Annuity Option elected.


 


You
may elect to have all or a part of the Net Account Value applied on the Annuity
Commencement Date under any of the Annuity Options described below. In the
absence of an election, the Net Account Value will be applied on the Annuity
Commencement Date under Option 2 - Life Income with Payments for a 10 Year
Guaranteed Period. Elections of any of these options must be made in Writing to
the Company at least 30 days prior to the date such election is to become
effective.


 


9

















 


If
the Annuitant or Participant dies on or after the Annuity Commencement Date,
any remaining payments will be distributed at least as rapidly as under the
method of distribution being used at the time of death.


 


Annuity Options


 


Option 1 - Payment For a Fixed Period. Equal monthly
payments will be made for any period of not less than 5 nor more than 30 years.
The amount or each payment depends on the total amount applied, the period
selected and the monthly payment rates we are using when the first payment is
due.


 


Option 2 - Life Income with Payments for a Guaranteed Period.
Equal monthly payments are based on the life of the named Annuitant.
Payments will continue for the lifetime of that person with payments guaranteed
for 10 or 20 years. Payments stop at the end of the selected guaranteed period
or when the named person dies, whichever is later.


 


Option 3 - Payments of a Fixed Amount. Equal monthly
payments will be for an agreed fixed amount. The amount of each payment may not
be less than $10 for each $1,000 applied. Interest will be credited each month
on the unpaid balance and added to it. This interest will be at a rate set by
us, but not less than an effective interest rate of 4% per year. Payments
continue until the amount we hold runs out. The last payment will be for the
balance only.


 


Minimum Amounts - We reserve the right to pay
the total amount of this Certificate in one lump sum, if less than $5,000. If
monthly payments are less than $100, we may make payments quarterly,
semi-annually, or annually, at our option.


 


All
elected Annuity Options must comply with current Federal and state statutes and
Internal Revenue Service Regulations. If we have available, at the time an
Annuity Option is elected, options or rates on a more favorable basis than
those guaranteed, the higher benefits shall apply.


 


ANNUITY TABLES


 


The
attached Annuity Tables show the dollar amount of the monthly payments for each
$1,000 applied. The tables are based on the 1983 Individual Annuitant Mortality
Table A projected 4 years with interest at 4% per annum. One year will be
deducted from the attained age of the Annuitant for every three completed years
beyond the year 1987.
