ROTH INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITY (“ROTH IRA”) ENDORSEMENT 

The provisions in this Roth IRA Endorsement (the “Endorsement”) are effective as of the issue date for the attached annuity contract (the
“Contract”) as a Roth IRA (or the date it has been converted to a Roth IRA), unless a later date is specified under the federal tax law with respect to a provision hereunder. 

The provisions below this paragraph, through Article VIII, of this Endorsement are word-for-word identical to the operative provisions in Articles I
through VIII of IRS Form 5305-RB (dated March 2002) and are deemed to meet the statutory requirements for a Roth IRA. These provisions are clarified in accordance with more recent IRS guidance in Article IX below. 

This Endorsement is made a part of the annuity contract to which it is attached, and the following provisions apply in lieu of any provisions in the
contract to the contrary. 
 The annuitant is establishing a Roth Individual Retirement Annuity (Roth IRA) under section 408A of the Internal Revenue
Code to provide for his or her retirement and for the support of his or her beneficiaries after death. 
 Article I 

Except in the case of a rollover contribution described in section 408A(e), a re-characterized contribution described in section 408A(d)(6), or an IRA
Conversion Contribution, the issuer will accept only cash contributions up to $3,000 per year for tax years 2002 through 2004. That contribution limit is increased to $4,000 for tax years 2005 through 2007 and $5,000 for 2008 and thereafter. For
individuals who have reached the age of 50 before the close of the tax year, the contribution limit is increased to $3,500 per year for tax years 2002 through 2004, $4,500 for 2005, $5,000 for 2006 and 2007, and $6,000 for 2008 and thereafter. For
tax years after 2008, the above limits will be increased to reflect a cost-of-living adjustment, if any. 
 Article II 

 

	 	1.	 The contribution limit described in Article I is gradually reduced to $0 for higher income annuitants. For a single
annuitant, the annual contribution is phased out between adjusted gross income (AGI) of $95,000 and $110,000; for a married annuitant filing jointly, between AGI of $150,000 and $160,000; and for a married annuitant filing separately, between AGI of
$0 and $10,000. In the case of a conversion, the issuer will not accept IRA Conversion Contributions in a tax year if the annuitant’s AGI for the tax year the funds were distributed from the other IRA exceeds $100,000 or if the annuitant is
married and files a separate return. Adjusted gross income is defined in section 408A(c)(3) and does not include IRA Conversion Contributions. 

  

	 	2.	 In the case of a joint return, the AGI limits in the preceding paragraph apply to the combined AGI of the annuitant and
his or her spouse 

 Article III 
 The
annuitant’s interest in the contract is nonforfeitable and nontransferable. 
 Article IV 

 

	 	1.	 The contract does not require fixed contributions. 

 

	 	2.	 Any dividends (refund of contributions other than those attributable to excess contributions) arising under the contract
will be applied (before the close of the calendar year following the year of the dividend) as contributions toward the contract. 

 Article V

  

	 	1.	 If the annuitant dies before his or her entire interest in the contract is distributed to him or her and the
annuitant’s surviving spouse is not the designated beneficiary, the remaining interest in the contract will be distributed in accordance with (a) below or, if elected or there is no designated beneficiary, in accordance with (b) below:

  

					
	ML-22503 (09/12)	 	1	 	

	 	(a)	 The remaining interest in the contract will be distributed, starting by the end of the calendar year following the year
of the annuitant’s death, over the designated beneficiary’s remaining life expectancy, or a period no longer than such remaining life expectancy, as determined in the year following the death of the annuitant. Life expectancy is determined
using the single life table in Regulations section 1.401(a)(9)-9. 

  

	 	(b)	 The remaining interest in the contract will be distributed by the end of the calendar year containing the fifth
anniversary of the annuitant’s death. 

  

	 	2.	 If the annuitant’s surviving spouse is the designated beneficiary, such spouse will then be treated as the
annuitant. 

 Article VI 
  

	 	1.	 The annuitant agrees to provide the issuer with all information necessary to prepare any reports required by sections
408(i) and 408A(d)(3)(E), Regulations sections 1.408-5 and 1.408-6, or other guidance published by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). 

  

	 	2.	 The issuer agrees to submit to the IRS and annuitant the reports prescribed by the IRS. 

Article VII 
 Notwithstanding any other articles which may be
added or incorporated, the provisions of Articles I through IV and this sentence will be controlling. Any additional articles inconsistent with section 408A, the related regulations, or other published guidance will be invalid. 

Article VIII 
 This Endorsement will be amended as necessary
to comply with the provisions of the Code, the related regulations, and other published guidance. Other amendments may be made with the consent of the persons whose signatures appear on the contract. 

Article IX 
  

	A.	Clarifications of Terms Used in This Endorsement 

  
  

	 	1.	 The term “issuer,” “we” or “us” means Brighthouse Life Insurance Company of NY.

  

	 	2.	 The term “annuitant,” “you” or “your” refers to the individual who is the measuring life,
as well as the individual owner (or “owner”), under this Contract. The term “Contract” also may refer to a certificate issued under a group annuity contract. No joint owner or contingent annuitant may be named under this
Contract. If this is an inherited IRA within the meaning of Code Section 408(d)(3)(c) maintained for the benefit of a designated beneficiary of a deceased individual, references in this document to “annuitant,” “owner,”
“you” or “your” are to the deceased individual. 

  

	 	3.	 The term “article” as used in Article VII may include any provision of the Contract (including any rider or
endorsement). 

  

	B.	Clarifications of Articles I-VIII and Other Contract Provisions 

  

	 	1.	 The Contract as modified by this Endorsement is intended to qualify as part of a tax-qualified retirement arrangement,
plan or contract that meets the requirements of section 408A and any applicable Treasury Regulations, i.e., to qualify as a Roth IRA. To achieve these purposes, the provisions of this Endorsement shall control if they are in conflict with those
of the Contract, and the provisions of this Endorsement and the Contract (including any other rider or endorsement that does not specifically override this provision) shall be interpreted to ensure or maintain such tax qualification, despite any
other provision to the contrary. Payments and distributions under this Contract shall be made in a time and manner necessary to maintain such a tax qualification under the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). We
reserve the right to amend this Endorsement or the Contract to comply with any applicable changes in the Code or any regulations or other published guidance relating thereto, or to reflect any clarifications that may be needed or are appropriate to
maintain such tax qualification. We will send you a copy of any such amendment, and when required by law, we will obtain the approval of the appropriate regulatory authority or of the annuitant. 

  

					
	ML-22503 (09/12)	 	2	 	

	 	2.	 No benefits under the Contract may be transferred, sold, assigned, borrowed, or pledged as collateral for a loan, or as
security for the performance of an obligation, or for any other purpose, to any person, except that the Contract may be transferred under a divorce or separation instrument described in section 408(d)(6). 

 

					
	         3.    
	 	  (a)      	 	 Maximum Permissible Amount. Except in the case of a qualified rollover contribution, a nontaxable transfer from an individual
retirement plan under Section 7701(a)(37) of the Code, or a recharacterization (as defined in (f) below), ongoing contributions to this Contract (if permitted) must be in cash and the total of such contributions to all the individual owner’s
Roth IRAs for a taxable year shall not exceed the applicable amount (as defined in (b) below), or the individual owner’s compensation (as defined in (h) below), if less, for that taxable year (or such other amount provided by applicable federal
tax law). Any contribution described in the previous sentence that may not exceed the lesser of the applicable amount or the individual owner’s compensation is referred to as a “regular contribution.” A “qualified rollover
contribution” is a rollover contribution of a distribution from an eligible retirement plan described in section 402(c)(8)(B) (or such other amounts provided by applicable federal tax law). If the distribution is from an IRA, the rollover must
meet the requirements of section 408(d)(3), except the one-rollover-per-year rule of section 408(d)(3)(B) does not apply if the rollover contribution is from an IRA other than a Roth IRA (a “nonRoth IRA”). If the rollover
contribution is from an eligible retirement plan other than an IRA, the rollover must meet the requirements of section 402(c), 402(e)(6), 403(a)(4), 403(b)(8), 403(b)(10), 408(d)(3) or 457(e)(16), as applicable, Contributions may be limited under
(c) through (e) below.

  

	 	(b)	 Applicable Amount. The applicable amount is determined below: 

 

	 	(i)	 If the individual owner is under age 50, the applicable amount is $5,000 for any taxable year beginning in 2008 and
years thereafter. After 2008, the $5,000 amount will be adjusted by the Secretary of the Treasury for cost-of-living increases under section 219(b)(5)(D). Such adjustments will be in multiples of $500. 

 

	 	(ii)	 If the individual owner is 50 or older, the applicable amount under paragraph (i) above is increased by $1,000 for any
taxable year beginning in 2006 and years thereafter. 

  

	 	(c)	 Regular Contribution Limit. The maximum regular contribution that can be made to all the individual owner’s Roth
IRAs for a taxable year is the smaller amount determined under (i) or (ii) below. 

  

	 	(i)	 The maximum regular contribution is phased out ratably between certain levels of modified adjusted gross income
(“modified AGI”), as defined in (g) below, in accordance with the following table: 

  

							
	 Filing Status
	 	 Full Contribution
	 	 Phase-Out Range
	 	 No Contribution

	
	Modified AGI            
				
	Single or Head of Household	 	$95,000 or less	 	Between $95,000
and $110,000	 	$110,000 or more
				
	Joint Return or Qualifying Widow(er)	 	$150,000 or less	 	Between $150,000
and $160,000	 	$160,000 or more
				
	Married - Separate Return $0	 		 	Between $0 and $10,000	 	$10,000 or more

 If the individual owner’s modified AGI for a
taxable year is in the phase-out range, the maximum regular contribution determined under this table for that taxable year is rounded up to the next multiple of $10 and is not reduced below $200. After 2006, the dollar amounts above will be adjusted
by the Secretary of the Treasury for cost-of-living increases under section 408A(c)(3). Such adjustments will be in multiples of $1,000. 
  

	 	(ii)	 If the individual owner makes regular contributions to both Roth and nonRoth IRAs for a taxable year, the maximum
regular contribution that can be made to all such individual’s Roth IRAs for that taxable year is reduced by the regular contributions made to such individual’s nonRoth IRAs for the taxable year. 

  

					
	ML-22503 (09/12)	 	3	 	

	 	(d)	 Inherited IRA. If this is an inherited IRA within the meaning of Code Section 408(d)(3)(c), no additional contributions
will be accepted. 

  

	 	(e)	 SIMPLE IRA Limits.   No contribution shall be allowed into this Contract under a SIMPLE IRA plan established
by any employer pursuant to section 408(p). Also, no transfer or rollover of funds attributable to contributions made by a particular employer under its SIMPLE IRA plan shall be allowed into this Contract from a SIMPLE IRA, that is, an IRA used
in conjunction with a SIMPLE IRA plan, prior to the expiration of the 2-year period beginning on the date the individual owner first participated in that employer’s SIMPLE IRA plan. 

 

	 	(f)	 Recharacterization.   A regular contribution to a nonRoth IRA may be recharacterized pursuant to the rules in
Treas. Reg. § 1.408A-5 as a regular contribution to this Roth IRA (if permitted), subject to the limits in (c) above. 

  

	 	(g)	 Modified AGI.   For purposes of (c) above, an individual owner’s modified AGI for a taxable year is
defined in section 408A(c)(3) and does not include any amount included in adjusted gross income as a result of a qualified rollover contribution (a “conversion”). 

 

	 	(h)	 Compensation.   For purposes of (a) above, compensation is defined as wages, salaries, professional fees, or
other amounts derived from or received for personal services actually rendered (including, but not limited to commissions paid salesmen, compensation for services on the basis of a percentage of profits, commissions on insurance premiums, tips, and
bonuses) and includes earned income, as defined in section 401(c)(2) (reduced by the deduction the self-employed individual owner takes for contributions made to a self-employed retirement plan). For purposes of this definition,
section 401(c)(2) shall be applied as if the term trade or business for purposes of section 1402 included service described in subsection (c)(6). Compensation does not include amounts derived from or received as earnings or profits from
property (including but not limited to interest and dividends) or amounts not includible in gross income (determined without regard to Code Section 112). Compensation also does not include any amount received as a pension or annuity or as deferred
compensation. The term “compensation” shall include any amount includible in the individual owner’s gross income under section 71 with respect to a divorce or separation instrument described in subparagraph (A) of
section 71(b)(2). In the case of a married individual filing a joint return, the greater compensation of his or her spouse is treated as his or her own compensation, but only to the extent that such spouse’s compensation is not being used
for purposes of the spouse making an IRA contribution. The term “compensation” also includes any differential wage payments as defined in Code Section 3401(h)(2). 

 

	 	(i)	 The owner shall have the sole responsibility for determining whether any contribution satisfies applicable income tax
requirements. 

  

	 	4.	 No amount is required to be distributed prior to the death of the individual owner for whose benefit the Contract was
originally established. If this is an inherited IRA within the meaning of the Code Section 408(d)(3)(C), this paragraph does not apply. However, prior to the time you reach the Maximum Annuity Date or maturity date under this contract (as the case
may be), we will send you information about annuity payment options so that you may consider whether to continue the deferral of distributions under your Roth IRA contract provisions or begin to receive annuity payments or other withdrawals from
your Contract. 

  

					
	           5.
	 	      (a)    	 	 Notwithstanding any provision of this Roth IRA Contract to the contrary, the distribution of the individual owner’s interest
in the Roth IRA shall be made in accordance with the requirements of section 408(b)(3), as modified by section 408A(c)(5), and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, the provisions of which are herein incorporated by this reference. If
distributions are not made in the form of an annuity on an irrevocable basis (except for acceleration), then distribution of the interest in the Roth IRA (as determined under section 5(c), below) must satisfy the requirements of
section 408(a)(6), as modified by section 408A(c)(5) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, rather than the distribution rules in paragraphs 5(b), (c), (d) and (e) below.

  

	 	(b)	 Upon the death of the individual owner, his or her entire interest shall be distributed at least as rapidly as follows:

  

	 	(i)	 If the designated beneficiary is someone other than such individual’s surviving spouse, the entire interest shall
be distributed, starting by the end of the calendar year following the calendar year of such individual’s death, over the life of the designated beneficiary or over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the designated
beneficiary, with such life expectancy determined using the age of the beneficiary as of his or her birthday in the year following the year of such individual’s death, or, if elected, in accordance with paragraph (b)(iii) below. If this is an
inherited IRA within the meaning of Code Section 408(d)(3)(C) established for the benefit of a non-spouse 

  

					
	ML-22503 (09/12)	 	4	 	

	 	 
designated beneficiary by a direct trustee-to-trustee transfer from a retirement plan of a deceased individual under § 402(c)(11), then, notwithstanding any election made by the deceased
individual, the non-spouse designated beneficiary may elect to have distributions made under this paragraph if the transfer is made no later than the end of the year following the year of death. 

 

	 	(ii)	 If such individual’s sole designated beneficiary is such individual’s surviving spouse, the entire interest
shall be distributed, starting by the end of the calendar year following the calendar year of such individual’s death (or by the end of the calendar year in which such individual would have attained age
70 1⁄2, if later), over such spouse’s life or over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the surviving spouse, or, if elected, in
accordance with paragraph (b)(iii) below. If such surviving spouse dies before required distributions commence to him or her, the remaining interest shall be distributed, starting by the end of the calendar year following the calendar year of such
spouse’s death, over such spouse’s designated beneficiary’s remaining life expectancy determined using such beneficiary’s age as of his or her birthday in the year following the death of such spouse, or, if elected, shall be
distributed in accordance with paragraph (b)(iii) below. If such surviving spouse dies after required distributions commence to him or her, any remaining interest shall continue to be distributed under the contract option chosen

  

	 	(iii)	 If there is no designated beneficiary, or if applicable by operation of paragraph (b)(i) or (b)(ii) above, the entire
interest shall be distributed by the end of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of such individual’s death (or of the spouse’s death in the case of the surviving spouse’s death before distributions are required to begin
under paragraph (b)(ii) above). 

  

	 	(iv)	 Life expectancy is determined using the Single Life Table in Q&A-1 of Treas. Reg. § 1.401(a)(9)-9. If
distributions are being made to a surviving spouse as the sole designated beneficiary, such spouse’s remaining life expectancy for a year is the number in the Single Life Table corresponding to such spouse’s age in the year. In all other
cases, remaining life expectancy for a year is the number in the Single Life Table corresponding to the beneficiary’s age in the year specified in paragraph (b)(i) or (ii) and reduced by 1 for each subsequent year. 

 

	 	(c)	 The “interest” in the Roth IRA includes the amount of any outstanding rollover, transfer and
recharacterization under Q&As-7 and -8 of Treas. Reg. § 1.408-8. Also, prior to the date that the Contract is annuitized, the “interest” in the Contract includes the actuarial present value of any additional benefits
provided under this IRA Contract (such as survivor benefits in excess of the dollar amount credited to Your beneficiary under the Contract) under Q&A-12 of Section 1.401(a)(9)-6 of the Income Tax Regulations. 

 

	 	(d)	 For purposes of paragraph 5(b)(ii) above, required distributions are considered to commence on the date distributions
are required to begin to the surviving spouse under such paragraph. However, if distributions start prior to the applicable date in the preceding sentence, on an irrevocable basis (except for acceleration) under an annuity contract meeting the
requirements of Treas. Reg. § 1.401(a)(9)-6, then required distributions are considered to commence on the annuity starting date. 

  

	 	(e)	 If the sole designated beneficiary is the individual owner’s surviving spouse, the spouse may elect to treat the
Roth IRA as his or her own Roth IRA. This election shall be deemed to have been made if such surviving spouse makes a contribution to the Roth IRA or fails to take required distributions as a beneficiary. 

 

	 	(f)	 The required minimum distributions payable to a designated beneficiary from this Roth IRA may be withdrawn from another
Roth IRA the beneficiary holds from the same decedent in accordance with Q&A-9 of §1.408-8 of the Income Tax Regulations. 

  

	 	(g)	 The owner or the owner’s beneficiary, as applicable, shall have the sole responsibility for requesting or arranging
for distributions that comply with this Endorsement and applicable income tax requirements. 

  

	 	6.	 If your Contract contains any provisions relating to federal tax requirements for any Traditional, SEP or SIMPLE IRA
contract that do not apply to Roth IRAs, they are hereby deleted by this Endorsement. This includes, but is not limited to, provisions relating to required minimum distribution (“RMD”) requirements during your life that apply to any
Traditional, SEP or SIMPLE IRA but do not apply to your Roth IRA, such as: 

  

	 	(a)	 Automatic sending of information about income plans when you attain age 70 or starting income payments on the April 1
following the calendar year you attain age 70  1⁄2, or 

  

					
	ML-22503 (09/12)	 	5	 	

	 	(b)	 Waiver of withdrawal charges on withdrawals required to avoid federal income tax penalties or to satisfy such pre-death
RMD income tax rules. 

 In addition, any references to unisex rates in the Annuity Table or the use of such rates for SEP or SIMPLE
IRAs are deleted. 
  

	 	7.	 Notwithstanding Article IV above, no dividends are paid under this Contract. 

 

	 	8.	 If (a) no premiums have been received for two full consecutive contract years, (b) the account balance is less than
$2,000, and (c) the paid-up annuity benefit at maturity or the Maximum Annuity Date would be less than $20 per month, we may choose either (i) to accept additional future premium payments under the Contract, or (ii) where otherwise permitted by law
and the terms of the Contract, to terminate the Contract by a lump sum payment of the then present value of the paid-up benefit. 

All other terms and conditions of the Contract remain unchanged. 

Brighthouse Life Insurance Company of NY has caused this Endorsement to be signed by its Secretary.

 BRIGHTHOUSE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NY 

285 Madison Avenue 
 New York, NY 10017 

INDIVIDUAL NON-QUALIFIED ANNUITY ENDORSEMENT 

This Endorsement forms a part of the Contract or Certificate to which it is attached (the “Contract”). This Endorsement is being added to the
Contract as of its issue date in order to clarify the Contract provisions that help maintain the Contract’s tax qualification as an annuity contract for federal tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as subsequently amended (the
“Code”). To achieve these purposes, the Contract provisions are clarified to provide as follows, despite any other provision to the contrary in the Contract (including any endorsement or rider thereto): 

 

	I.	 Required Distributions Before or After the Annuity Starting Date 

 

	 	A.	 Death of Owner or Primary Annuitant, or Change of Primary Annuitant 

Subject to the alternative election, spouse beneficiary and interpretative provisions in subsection B or C immediately below, or in the Tax
Qualification provisions below: 
  

	 	1.	 If any Owner dies on or after the Annuity Starting Date (see paragraph C.1 below) and before the entire interest in this
Contract has been distributed, the remaining portion of such interest shall be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution being used as of the date of such death; 

 

	 	2.	 If any Owner dies before the Annuity Starting Date, the entire interest in this Contract shall be distributed within 5
years after such death; 

  

	 	3.	 If the Owner is not an individual, then for purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph 1 or 2, (a) the Primary
Annuitant (see paragraph C.2 below) under this Contract shall be treated as the Owner, and (b) any change in the Primary Annuitant allowed by this Contract shall be treated as the death of the Owner; and 

 

	 	4.	 Any postponement of the Annuity Starting Date, if allowed by this Contract, may not be postponed beyond the Primary
Annuitant’s attaining age 95, without a written election to extend the Annuity Starting Date by the Owner (if available at the time of the election) prior to age 95 and not without our consent. 

 

	 	B.	 Alternative Election and Spousal Beneficiary Provisions That Satisfy Distribution Requirements

 Subject to any restrictions imposed by any regulations or other published guidance from the IRS interpreting Code section 72(s):

  

	 	1.	 If any portion of the interest of an Owner described in subsection A immediately above is payable to or for the benefit
of an individual designated as a beneficiary by an Owner, and such beneficiary elects after such death to have such portion distributed over a “Qualifying Distribution Period” (described herein) that is allowed by this Contract upon such
death, then for purposes of satisfying the requirements of paragraph A.1 or A.2 immediately above, such portion shall be treated as distributed entirely on the date such periodic distributions begin. A “Qualifying Distribution Period” is a
period that (a) does not extend beyond such beneficiary’s life (or life expectancy) and (b) starts within one year after such death. 

  

	 	2.	 Such a designated beneficiary includes any individual joint Owner or successor Owner who becomes entitled to any portion
of such an interest upon an Owner’s death, or any other individual who controls the use of the cash value of such a portion upon an Owner’s death. Any designated beneficiary may elect any settlement or other distribution option that is
allowed by this Contract upon an Owner’s death if the option is for a Qualifying Distribution Period. In determining which distribution options can qualify for such a Qualifying Distribution Period, we may treat any Contract amount that is
payable upon an Owner’s death to a trust (or other entity) for the benefit of an individual beneficiary as an interest (or portion thereof) that is payable for the benefit of such a designated beneficiary under this subsection B, where such
individual beneficiary certifies to us that he or she (a) is treated as the tax owner of such a trust amount for federal income tax purposes (e.g., under Code section 671- 678) and (b) can compel its distribution to himself or herself from such
trust. 

  

					
	ML-22504 (09/12)	 	1	 	

	 	3.	 If any portion of the interest of an Owner described in subsection A immediately above is payable to or for the benefit
of such Owner’s surviving spouse (e.g., as a result of such spouse being a joint Owner), then such spouse shall be treated as the Owner with respect to such portion for purposes of the requirements of subsection A. Where such spouse is the sole
designated beneficiary of this Contract upon such Owner’s death, such spouse may elect to continue this Contract as the Owner, and we may treat such spouse as the annuitant if such deceased Owner was the annuitant and no other surviving
annuitant has been designated. 

  

	 	C.	 Interpretative Provisions 

 
 Subject to any contrary provisions in any regulations or other
published guidance from the IRS interpreting Code section 72(s): 
  

	 	1.	 The Annuity Starting Date means the first day of the first period for which an amount is received as an annuity under
the Contract, as defined in Code section 72(c)(4) (and any regulations thereunder). 

  

	 	2.	 The Primary Annuitant means the individual, the events in the life of whom are of primary importance in affecting the
timing or amount of the payout under the Contract, as defined in Code section 72(s)(6)(B) (and any regulations thereunder). 

  

	 	3.	 We will treat any holder of this Contract as its Owner for purposes of subsection A or B immediately above where
necessary or appropriate. 

  

	 	4.	 Paragraphs A.1 and A.2 immediately above shall not apply to this Contract if it was issued before January 19, 1985, and
was not materially changed on or after such date. 

  

	 	5.	 Paragraph A.3 immediately above shall not apply to this Contract if it was issued before April 23, 1987, and was not
materially changed on or after such date. 

  

	II.	 Tax Qualification 

This Contract is intended to qualify as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes and to satisfy the applicable requirements of Code section
72(s). To achieve these purposes, the provisions of this Contract (including this endorsement and any other endorsement or rider to the Contract) are to be interpreted to ensure or maintain such a tax qualification, despite any other provision to
the contrary. Payments and distributions under this Contract shall be made in a time and manner necessary to maintain such a tax qualification under the applicable provisions of the Code. We reserve the right to amend this Contract to reflect any
clarifications that may be needed or are appropriate to maintain such a tax qualification or to conform this Contract to any applicable changes in the tax qualification requirements. We will send you a copy of any such amendment, and when required
by law, we will obtain the approval of the appropriate regulatory authority. 
 All other provisions of this Contract remain unchanged. 

Brighthouse Life Insurance Company of NY has caused this Endorsement to be signed by its Secretary.
