    The following replaces the “How we calculate the Annual Maximum” provision of the “Income Payments” section
        of the Income Benefit Rider.

    

    

    How we calculate the Annual Maximum for Level Income

    On the Income Benefit Date, the Annual Maximum is equal to the greater of the Lifetime Income Percentage for
        the Level Income Payment Option multiplied by the Contract Value, or the Level Income Guarantee Payment Percentage multiplied by the Adjusted Purchase Payments if all of the following are met:

    
      	
              ·

            	
              Level Income is selected as the Income Payment Option;

            


    

    
      	
              ·

            	
              On the Issue Date, the Covered Person(s) did not exceed the Maximum Issue Age for Level Income
                  Guarantee; and

            


    

    
      	
              ·

            	
              On the Income Benefit Date, the Covered Person(s) do not exceed the Maximum Exercise Age for Level
                  Income Guarantee.

            


    

    The Maximum Issue Age for Level Income Guarantee and the Maximum Exercise Age for Level Income Guarantee are
        shown on the Income Benefit Rider Contract Schedule. If the above criteria are not met, on the Income Benefit Date, the Annual Maximum is equal to the Lifetime Income Percentage for the Level Income Payment Option multiplied by the Contract Value.

    

    

    On each Income Benefit Anniversary thereafter, we calculate the Annual Maximum based on the Level Income
        Payment Option and the Contract Value. If your Quarterly Contract Anniversary and your Income Benefit Anniversary are not the same, the Contract Charges accrued but not deducted since your last Quarterly Contract Anniversary will not decrease the
        Contract Value until the next Quarterly Contract Anniversary.  The Annual Maximum will never decrease unless you take an Excess Withdrawal.

    

    

    How we calculate the Annual Maximum for Increasing Income

    On the Income Benefit Date, the Annual Maximum is equal to the Lifetime Income Percentage for the Increasing
        Income Payment Option and multiplied by the Contract Value. On each Income Benefit Anniversary thereafter, we calculate the Annual Maximum based on the Increasing Income Payment Option and the Contract Value. If your Quarterly Contract Anniversary
        and your Income Benefit Anniversary are not the same, the Contract Charges accrued but not deducted since your last Quarterly Contract Anniversary will not decrease the Contract Value until the next Quarterly Contract Anniversary.  The Annual
        Maximum will never decrease unless you take an Excess Withdrawal.

    The following is added to the “Income Payments” section of the Income Benefit Rider.

    

    

    How we calculate the Level Income Guarantee Payment Percentage

    On the Income Benefit Date, your Level Income Guarantee Payment Percentage is based on the Age of the Covered
        Person(s). After the Income Benefit Date, the Level Income Guarantee Payment Percentage will not change.

    The following replaces the “Misstatement of Age of a Covered Person” paragraph of the “General Provisions”
        section of the Income Benefit Rider.

    

    

    Misstatement of Age of a Covered Person

    If there is a misstatement of the Age of a Covered Person, we will adjust the Annual Maximum based on the
        correct Lifetime Income Percentage or Level Income Guarantee Payment Percentage, as applicable.  If the misstatement caused an underpayment, we will pay you the difference in one payment.  If the misstatement caused an overpayment, we will reduce
        your next Income Payment by the amount of the difference.  If the amount of the difference is larger than your next Income Payment, we will reduce the subsequent Income Payment, and so on until the entire difference has been subtracted.  Any
        underpayment or overpayment will not include interest.
