IMPORTANT INFORMATION YOU SHOULD CONSIDER ABOUT THE CONTRACT
An investment in the contract is subject to fees, risks, and other important considerations, some of which are briefly summarized in the following table. You should review the prospectus for additional information about these topics. 
Fees, Expenses and Adjustments
Location in
Prospectus
Are There
Charges or
Adjustments
for Early
Withdrawals?
Yes.
B Series: If you withdraw money during the first 7 years following your last
premium payment, you may be assessed a surrender charge of up to 8% of the
premium withdrawn, declining to 0% over that time period. Surrender charges
will reduce the value of your contract if you withdraw money during that time.
For example, if you make an early withdrawal, you could pay a surrender
charge of up to $8,000 on a $100,000 investment. This loss will be greater if
there are taxes or tax penalties.
L Series: If you withdraw money during the first 4 years following your last
premium payment, you may be assessed a surrender charge of up to 8% of the
premium withdrawn, declining to 0% over that time period. Surrender charges
will reduce the value of your contract if you withdraw money during that time.
For example, if you make an early withdrawal, you could pay a surrender
charge of up to $8,000 on a $100,000 investment. This loss will be greater if
there are taxes or tax penalties.
