Supplement dated December 6, 2024 to the
Summary Prospectus for New Investors dated May 1, 2024
This supplement to the summary prospectus for your individual variable annuity contract describes Lincoln ProtectedPay® and Estate LockSM, a combination Living Benefit and Death Benefit rider, available for purchase beginning January 28, 2025 (subject to state availability and broker dealer
approval).
OVERVIEW
Lincoln ProtectedPay® and Estate LockSM is an
optional combination Living Benefit Rider and Death Benefit rider. These riders are designed to work in conjunction with each other and may not be purchased separately. The rider provides:
|
•
|
Guaranteed lifetime periodic withdrawals up to the Protected Annual Income amount which is based upon a Protected Income Base;
|
|
•
|
An Enhancement amount added to the Protected Income Base if certain criteria are met;
|
|
•
|
Account Value Step-ups of the Protected Income Base to the Contract Value if the Contract Value is equal to or greater than the Protected Income Base after the Enhancement; and
|
|
•
|
Age-based increases to the Protected Annual Income amount (after reaching a higher age-band and after an Account Value Step-up); and
|
|
•
|
a Death Benefit payable to the Beneficiary of your Contract upon the death of the Annuitant.
|
Lincoln ProtectedPay® and Estate LockSM may be
elected only at the time the Contract is issued (subject to state approval) and only if the Contractowner/Annuitant is 35 to 75 years of age at the time the contract is issued. The initial Purchase Payment must be at least $25,000. Rider elections
are subject to Home Office approval if Purchase Payments total $2 million or more. You may not voluntarily terminate the Lincoln ProtectedPay® and
Estate LockSM rider.
The Living Benefit portion of the rider provides flexible investment and income choices to meet your individual needs by offering two options:
|
•
|
Lincoln ProtectedPay Select Core® and Estate LockSM,
|
|
•
|
Lincoln ProtectedPay Secure Core® and Estate LockSM.
|
If you purchase a Lincoln ProtectedPay® and Estate LockSM,
you will be required to adhere to Investment Requirements, which will limit your ability to invest in certain Subaccounts offered in your Contract. The Lincoln ProtectedPay Select
Core® and Estate LockSM option has less restrictive Investment Requirements than the Lincoln ProtectedPay Secure Core® and Estate LockSM option.
