Target Premium: A premium amount specified by the Company based on the Specified Amount of the Policy, any optional additional benefits elected by the Policyowner, and individual characteristics of the Joint Insureds (e.g., age, sex, and underwriting class).

FEES AND EXPENSES |

|
Charge for Early Withdrawal |
If you make a partial withdrawal from your Policy in any Policy Year, we assess a Partial Withdrawal Fee equal to the lesser of $25 or 2% of the amount withdrawn to compensate us for costs incurred in accomplishing the withdrawal. We deduct this fee from Accumulated Value.
For example, if you were to make a partial withdrawal (of more than $1,250) when your Accumulated Value is $100,000, you would be assessed a Partial Withdrawal Fee of $25.
If you make a full surrender of your Policy during the first 10 Policy Years, or during the first 10 Policy Years following an increase in Specified Amount (to the extent of the increase), we assess a Surrender Charge that varies based on the Policy Year and the individual characteristics of the Joint Insureds (e.g., age, sex, and underwriting class). You should view the specifications page of your Policy for rates applicable to your Policy. The maximum Surrender Charge for any Policy is $54.26 per $1,000 of Specified Amount. We deduct this charge from the amount surrendered.
For example, if you were to make a full surrender during the first Policy Year after your Policy purchase (and your Specified Amount is $100,000), then you could be assessed a charge of up to $5,426. |
Charges and Deductions |

Transaction Charges |
In addition to Surrender Charges, you may also be charged for other transactions. These charges include transfer charges and the premium expense charge. |

These fees and expenses may be set based on characteristics of the Joint Insureds under the Policy (e.g., age, |

Not a Short-Term Investment |
This Policy is not a short-term investment vehicle and is not appropriate for an investor who needs ready access to cash. · We apply a Partial Withdrawal Fee with respect to a partial withdrawal made during any Policy Year. · We apply a Surrender Charge with respect to a full surrender during the first 10 Policy Years, and during the first 10 Policy Years following an increase in Specified Amount. · The foregoing charges will reduce the value of your Policy, and are minimized the longer you hold the Policy. · Tax deferral is more beneficial to investors with a long time horizon. |

Risks Associated with Investment Options |
An investment in the Policy is subject to the risk of poor investment performance, and can vary depending on the performance of the Investment Options.
Each Investment Option (including the Declared Interest Option) has its own unique risks. You should review these Investment Options before making an investment decision. |

Insurance Company Risks |
An investment in the Policy is subject to the risks related to EquiTrust Life Insurance Company, including that any obligations (including under the Declared Interest Option), guarantees, or benefits of the Policy are subject to the claims-paying ability of the Company. More information about the Company, including its financial strength ratings, is available by calling toll-free at 1-877-249-3689 or writing to: EquiTrust Life Insurance Company, PO Box 9253, Des Moines, IA 50306-9253. |

|
Policy Lapse |
The Policy may lapse if after the first 3 Policy Years the Net Surrender Value is insufficient on a Monthly Deduction Day to cover the monthly deduction and a Grace Period expires without a sufficient payment. The Policy will not lapse if you selected the optional Death Benefit Guarantee Rider and you have paid sufficient premiums to meet the cumulative death benefit guarantee monthly premium requirement on each Monthly Deduction Day. We will notify you that the Policy will lapse at the end of the Grace Period unless you make a sufficient payment. If your Policy lapses, no death benefit will be payable under the Policy.
Whether a Policy lapses depends on the level of Net Surrender Value, which is affected by the amount of premiums you paid, the amount of withdrawals you took, the amount of Policy Debt, and the investment performance of the Investment Options and the Declared Interest Option. Poor investment performance, high amounts of Policy Debt or withdrawals, and payment of insufficient premiums increases the risk of Policy lapse.
Prior to the Maturity Date, you may apply to reinstate a lapsed Policy at any time within 5 years of the Monthly Deduction Day immediately preceding the Grace Period which expired without payment of the required premium. Among the items you must submit in your reinstatement application is a premium that, after the deduction of the premium expense charge, is at least sufficient to cover the monthly Policy expenses for the 2 Policy Months prior to the lapse and to keep the Policy in force for three months. |

Investments |
Currently, the first twelve transfers in a Policy Year may be effected without a transfer charge. But we impose a transfer charge of $25 for the thirteenth and each subsequent transfer in a Policy Year.
Only one transfer per Policy Year is permitted between the Declared Interest Option and the Variable Account.
We reserve the right, subject to compliance with applicable law, to make additions to, deletions from or substitutions for the shares of the Investment Options that the Variable Account holds or that the Variable Account may purchase. |

We offer several optional riders under the Policy. The insurance features added through these riders include, among other things, automatic cost of living increase of Specified Amount, prevention of Policy lapse, and term life insurance. The optional riders may be terminated in certain circumstances, such as in the case of Policy lapse. We do not have the right to terminate an optional benefit in our sole discretion.

Tax Implications |
You should consult with a tax professional to determine the tax implications of an investment in and payments received under the Policy.

|
Investment Professional Compensation |
We have discontinued new sales of the Policies to the public. We summarize below the kinds of compensation paid in connection with past sales of the Policy and on an ongoing basis.
Investment professionals receive compensation for selling the Policy to investors (e.g., in the form of cash commission payments). In addition to commissions and other forms of cash compensation, certain investment professionals also may receive non-cash compensation. Non-cash compensation can entail payment for conferences, seminars, meals, sporting events, theater performances, travel, lodging and/or entertainment as well as prizes and awards. Finally, investment professionals may receive other payments from the Company for services that do not directly involve the sale of the Policies, including payments made for the recruitment and training of personnel, production of promotional literature and similar services.
These investment professionals have a financial incentive to offer or recommend the Policy over another investment. |
Distribution of the Policies |
|
Exchanges |
Because the Policy is no longer sold, you would not be affected by a scenario in which you are asked to replace an existing life insurance policy you own with a new purchase of this Policy. In general, you should be aware that some investment professionals may have a financial incentive to offer you a new policy in place of the Policy you already own. Thus, in general, you should only exchange your life insurance Policy if you determine, after comparing the features, fees, and risks of both policies, that it is preferable for you to purchase the new policy rather than continue to own the existing Policy. |

The current expenses and performance information below reflects fees and expenses of the Investment Options, but do not reflect the other fees and expenses that your Policy may charge. Expenses would be higher and performance would be lower if these other charges were included. Each Investment Option’s past performance is not necessarily an indication of future performance.
