                         ADDITIONAL DEATH BENEFIT RIDER

We issued this rider as a part of the policy to which it is attached.

This rider will pay an Additional Death Benefit amount equal to a percentage of
the gains accumulated in the policy since the rider was added.  This Additional
Death Benefit will be paid whenever death proceeds are payable on the base
policy to which this rider is attached.

This rider will be considered terminated when the policy is annuitized or
surrendered, or an Additional Death Benefit is paid under the terms of this
rider.  You may also terminate this benefit at any time by notifying us at our
service center.  Once terminated, this rider may be re-elected.  However, a new
rider will be issued and the Additional Death Benefit amount will be re-
determined.

DEFINITIONS

Rider Anniversary
The anniversary of the Rider Date for each year the rider remains in force.

Rider Date
The date that this rider is added to the policy.

Rider Earnings
The policy gains accrued and not previously withdrawn since the Rider Date.  On
a given date, this amount is equal to: the death proceeds of the base policy;
minus the Policy Value of the base policy on the Rider Date; minus premiums paid
after the rider date; plus amounts withdrawn from the Policy Value after the
Rider Date that exceed the Rider Earnings on the date of the withdrawal.

ADDITIONAL DEATH BENEFIT AMOUNT
If death proceeds are payable under the terms of the base policy to which this
rider is attached, this rider will pay an Additional Death Benefit equal to the
Additional Death Benefit Factor multiplied by the Rider Earnings on the date
used to calculate the death proceeds.

ADDITIONAL DEATH BENEFIT PREMIUM
We will deduct a fee from the Policy Value on each Rider Anniversary and a pro-
rated fee on the termination date of the rider.  The Rider Fee is equal to the
Policy Value at the time the fee is deducted, multiplied by the Rider Fee
Percentage shown on the first page of this rider.  The fee will be deducted from
each subaccount and fixed account in proportion to the amount of Policy Value in
each account.  This fee will not be deducted after the policy is annuitized.

SPOUSAL CONTINUATION
If a death occurs and the deceased's spouse, if any, is continuing the base
policy in lieu of receiving the death proceeds, the continuing spouse has the
following options:

o  Terminate the Additional Death Benefit Rider and receive a one-time Policy
   Value increase equal to the amount of the Additional Death Benefit.

o  Continue the Additional Death Benefit Rider without the one-time Policy Value
   increase.  An Additional Death Benefit Amount would then be paid upon the
   death of the continuing spouse.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional Death Benefit Calculations:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rider Earnings = death proceeds - policy value on the Rider Date - premium payments after the Rider Date +
withdrawals that exceed Rider Earnings on date of withdrawal = $225,000 - $100,000 - $25,000 + $0                       $100,000

Additional Death Benefit Amount = Additional Death Benefit Factor * Rider Earnings = 10% * $100,000                     $ 10,000

Total death proceeds = death proceeds on base policy + Additional Death Benefit Amount = $225,000 + $10,000             $235,000

ADDITIONAL DEATH BENEFIT RIDER

We issued this rider as a part of the policy to which it is attached.

This rider will pay an Additional Death Benefit Amount equal to a percentage of
the gains accumulated in the policy since the rider was added plus a percentage
of any remaining death proceeds from the day the rider was added. This
Additional Death Benefit, if any, will be paid whenever death proceeds are
payable on the base policy to which this rider is attached.

This rider will be considered terminated when the policy is annuitized or
surrendered, or an Additional Death Benefit is paid or added to the policy
under spousal continuation under the terms of this rider. You may also cancel
this benefit at any time by notifying us at our service center. However, if the
rider is terminated it can not be re-elected within a year after it was last
terminated. Once re-elected, a new rider will be issued and the Additional
Death Benefit amount will be re-determined.

DEFINITIONS

Future Growth
The policy gains accrued and not previously withdrawn since the Rider Date. On a
given date, this amount is equal to: the death proceeds of the base policy on
that date; minus the death proceeds of the base policy on the Rider Date; minus
premiums paid after the rider date; plus amounts withdrawn from the Policy
Value after the Rider Date that exceed the Future Growth immediately prior to
the withdrawal. This amount may be zero, but will never be less than zero.

Rider Anniversary
The anniversary of the Rider Date for each year the rider remains in force.

Rider Benefit Base
This amount is equal to the Future Growth plus a remaining amount of initial
death proceeds. The remaining amount of initial death proceeds is defined as the
Initial Death Benefit Option, as shown above, multiplied by the death proceeds
of the base policy on the Rider Date; minus amounts withdrawn from the Policy
Value after the Rider Date that exceed the Future Growth immediately prior to
the withdrawal. This amount may be zero, but will never be less than zero.

Rider Date
The date that this rider is added to the policy.

Rider Fee
A Rider Fee is deducted annually on each Rider Anniversary prior to
annuitization. The Rider Fee amount is equal to the Rider Fee Percentage above
multiplied by the Policy Value on the date the fee is deducted. We will also
deduct this fee upon full surrender of the policy or other termination of the
rider. The Rider Fee is deducted pro rata from each Investment Option. The fee
is deducted even during periods when the Additional Death Benefit rider would
not pay any benefit.

ADDITIONAL DEATH BENEFIT AMOUNT
If death proceeds are payable under the terms of the base policy to which this
rider is attached, this rider will pay an Additional Death Benefit. If death
occurs prior to the fifth Rider Anniversary, the rider will pay an Additional
Death Benefit equal to the sum of all Rider Fees paid since the Rider Date. If
death occurs on or after the fifth Rider Anniversary, the rider will pay an
Additional Death Benefit equal to the rider Benefit Percentage multiplied by the
Rider Benefit Base on the date used to calculate the death proceeds.

SPOUSAL CONTINUATION
If a death occurs and the base contract gives the spouse the right to continue
the contract, and the deceased's spouse, if any, is continuing the base policy
in lieu of receiving the death proceeds, the continuing spouse will receive a
one-time Policy Value increase equal to the amount of the Additional Death
Benefit. At this time the rider would terminate.

Additional Death Benefit Example:
The Additional Death Benefit rider is added to a new policy opened with $100,000
initial premium. The Rider Benefit is 40%. The client chose a 75% Initial Death
Benefit Option with a Rider Fee of 0.60%. On the first and second Rider
Anniversaries, the Policy Value is $110,000 and $95,000 respectively when the
Rider Fees are deducted. The client adds $25,000 premium in the third Rider Year
when the Death Proceeds are equal to $115,000 and then takes a withdrawal of
$35,000 during the fourth Rider Year when the Death Proceeds are equal to
$145,000. After five years, the Death Proceeds have grown to $130,000.
