**GLOSSARY OF TERMS**

------

We have tried to make this prospectus as easy to read and understand as possible. By the nature of the contract, however, certain technical words or terms are unavoidable. We have identified the following as some of these words or terms.

**Accumulation Phase:** The period that begins with the Contract Date (which we define below) and ends when you start receiving income payments, or earlier if the contract is terminated through a full withdrawal or payment of a Death Benefit.

**Annuitant:** The person whose life determines how long the Contract lasts and the amount of income payments that we will pay. If the Annuitant dies before the Annuity Date, the Co-Annuitant (if any) becomes the Annuitant if the contract's requirements for changing the Annuity Date are met. If, upon the death of the Annuitant, there is no surviving eligible Co-Annuitant, and the Owner is not the Annuitant, then the Owner becomes the Annuitant.

**Annuity Date:** The date when income payments are scheduled to begin. You must have our permission to change the Annuity Date. If the Co-Annuitant becomes the Annuitant due to the death of the Annuitant, and the Co-Annuitant is older than the Annuitant, then the Annuity Date will be based on the age of the Co-Annuitant, provided that the Contract's requirements for changing the Annuity Date are met (e.g., the Co-Annuitant cannot be older than a specified age). If the Co-Annuitant is younger than the Annuitant, then the Annuity Date will remain unchanged.

**Beneficiary:** The person(s) or entity you have chosen to receive a Death Benefit.

**Bonus:** The additional 1% of your Purchase Payments that we add to the value of your contract. This amount is based on the Purchase Payments you make during the first three years you own the contract. This Bonus payment is discretionary in later years. Payment of the Bonus amount may be limited to $1,000 each contract year. This amount is referred to in your contract as an "additional amount."

**Co-Annuitant:** The person shown on the contract data pages who becomes the Annuitant (if eligible) upon the death of the Annuitant if the contract's requirements for changing the Annuity Date are met. No Co-Annuitant may be designated if the owner is a non-natural person.

**Contract Date:** The date we accept your initial purchase payment and all necessary paperwork in Good Order in the Prudential Annuity Service Center. Contract anniversaries are measured from the Contract Date. A contract year begins on the Contract Date or on a contract anniversary.

**Contract Owner, Owner, or You:** The person entitled to the ownership rights under the contract.

**Contract Value:** This is the total value of your contract, equal to the sum of the values of your investment in each investment option you have chosen. Your Contract Value will go up or down based on the performance of the investment options you choose.

**Credit:** An amount we allocate to your Annuity's Account Value each time you make a Purchase Payment. The amount of the Credit is payable from our general account. The amount of the Credit depends on the cumulative amount of Purchase Payments you have made to your Annuity, payable as a percentage of each specific Purchase Payment.

**Death Benefit:** If a Death Benefit is payable, the Beneficiary you designate will receive, depending on the age of the Annuitant at death, either the Contract Value or the total invested Purchase Payments reduced proportionally by withdrawals, or a potentially greater amount related to Variable Option appreciation.

**Fixed Interest Rate Option:** An investment option that offers a fixed rate of interest for a one-year period.

**Good Order:** An instruction received at the Prudential Annuity Service Center, utilizing such forms, signatures and dating as we require, which is sufficiently clear that we do not need to exercise any discretion to follow such instructions.

**Portfolio:** Any underlying mutual fund which may be selected as an investment option by the owner. The terms "Fund" and "Portfolio" are used interchangeably. Some of the Portfolios use the term "Fund" and others use the term "Portfolio" in their respective prospectuses.

**Prudential Annuity Service Center:** For general correspondence: P.O. Box 7960, Philadelphia, PA 19176. For express overnight mail: 1600 Malone Street, Millville, NJ 08332. The phone number is 1-888-PRU-2888. Prudential's website is <u>www.prudential.com/annuities</u>.

**Purchase Payments:** The amount of money you pay us to purchase the contract. Generally, you can make additional Purchase Payments at any time during the Accumulation Phase.

**Registered Separate Account:** (Separate Account) Prudential Qualified Individual Variable Contract Account (QVIP), which holds the assets supporting the Variable Options. Assets held in the Registered Separate Account are kept separate from all of our other assets and may not be charged with liabilities arising out of any other business we may conduct.

**Separate Account:** Purchase Payments allocated to the variable investment options are held by us in a Separate Account called the Prudential Qualified Individual Variable Contract Account. The Separate Account is set apart from all of the general assets of Prudential.

**Statement of Additional Information:** A document containing certain additional information about the Qualified Variable Investment Plan variable annuity. We have filed the Statement of Additional Information with the Securities and Exchange Commission and it is legally a part of this prospectus. To learn how to obtain a copy of the Statement of Additional Information, see the front cover of this prospectus.

**Variable Option:** A division of the Registered Separate Account. The Variable Option also may be referred to in this prospectus and the Annuity as a Variable Sub-account or Sub-account.

**The additional information below may be applicable to the Portfolios listed in the above table.**

PGIM Fixed Income is a business unit of PGIM, Inc.

PGIM Investments LLC manages each of the Portfolios of The Prudential Series Fund (PSF).

PGIM Investments LLC manages each of the Portfolios of the Advanced Series Trust (AST). AST Investment Services, Inc. serves as co-manager, along with PGIM Investments LLC, to many of the Portfolios of AST.

PGIM Real Estate is a business unit of PGIM, Inc.

1. **These Portfolios are also offered in other variable annuity contracts that utilize a predetermined mathematical formula to manage the guarantees offered in connection with optional benefits.** 

Those other variable annuity contracts offer certain optional living benefits that utilize a predetermined mathematical formula (the "formula") to manage the guarantees offered in connection with those optional benefits. The formula monitors each contract Owner's Account Value daily and, if necessary, will systematically transfer amounts among investment options. The formula transfers funds between the Variable Options for those variable annuity contracts and an AST Bond Portfolio Variable Option or a fixed account (those AST Bond Portfolios or a fixed account may not be available in connection with the annuity contracts offered through this prospectus). **You should be aware that the operation of the formula in those other variable annuity contracts may result in large-scale asset flows into and out of the underlying Portfolios that are available with your contract. These asset flows could adversely impact the underlying Portfolios, including their risk profile, expenses and performance**. Because transfers between the Variable Options and the AST Bond Variable Option or a fixed account can be frequent and the amount transferred can vary from day to day, any of the underlying Portfolios could experience the following effects, among others:

(1) a Portfolio's investment performance could be adversely affected by requiring a subadvisor to purchase and sell securities at inopportune times or by otherwise limiting the subadvisor's ability to fully implement the Portfolio's investment strategy;

(2) the subadvisor may be required to hold a larger portion of assets in highly liquid securities than it otherwise would hold, which could adversely affect performance if the highly liquid securities underperform other securities (e.g., equities) that otherwise would have been held; and

(3) a Portfolio may experience higher turnover and greater negative asset flows than it would have experienced without the formula, which could result in higher operating expense ratios and higher transaction costs for the Portfolio compared to other similar funds.

The efficient operation of the asset flows among Portfolios triggered by the formula depends on active and liquid markets. If market liquidity is strained, the asset flows may not operate as intended. For example, it is possible that illiquid markets or other market stress could cause delays in the transfer of cash from one Portfolio to another Portfolio, which in turn could adversely impact performance.

Before you allocate to the Variable Option with the AST Portfolios listed above, you should consider the potential effects on the Portfolios that are the result of the operation of the formula in the variable annuity contracts that are unrelated to your Variable Annuity. Please work with your financial professional to determine which Portfolios are appropriate for your needs.

♦ **This information includes annual expenses that reflect temporary or other fee reductions or waivers. Please see the Portfolio prospectus for additional information.** 

**Fixed Options**

The following is a list of Fixed Options currently available under the Contract. We may change the features of the Fixed Options listed below, offer new Fixed Options, and terminate existing Fixed Options. We will provide you with written notice before doing so. For more information about the Fixed Options, see "Description of Insurance Company, Registered Separate Account, and Investment Options" in the statutory prospectus.
