Each Reorganization is subject to approval by the shareholders of the relevant Target Portfolio. In addition, contract owners will be allowed one free transfer out of a Target Portfolio during the period within 60 days of the effective date of a Reorganization (i.e., from 60 days before to 60 days after the effective date of the Reorganization). Additional information will be included in a Proxy Statement/Prospectus relating to the applicable Reorganization, each of which is anticipated to be mailed to Target Portfolio shareholders in the fourth quarter of 2022. A special meeting of each of the Target Portfolio's shareholders will be held in the first quarter of 2023 to solicit shareholder approval of the applicable Reorganization.

If approved by the applicable Target Portfolio's shareholders, pursuant to each Reorganization, the assets and liabilities of each Target Portfolio would be exchanged for shares of the Acquiring Portfolio, and Target Portfolio shareholders would become shareholders of the Acquiring Portfolio. No charges would be imposed in connection with the Reorganizations. The Acquiring Portfolio shares to be received by the Target Portfolio shareholders in the Reorganizations would be equal in value to the Target Portfolio shares held by such shareholders immediately prior to such Reorganization. The Target Portfolios and the Acquiring Portfolios anticipate obtaining an opinion of counsel to the effect that the Reorganizations will not result in any adverse federal income tax consequences to either the Target Portfolios or the Acquiring Portfolios, or their respective shareholders.
If the required shareholder approvals are obtained and all required closing conditions are satisfied, including receipt of the tax opinion, it is expected that the proposed Reorganizations will be completed in, or around, the first quarter of 2023, or as soon as reasonably practicable once shareholder approval is obtained.
THIS SUPPLEMENT SHOULD BE READ AND RETAINED FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
