RISKS
Location in Statutory Prospectus
Risk of Loss
You can lose money by investing in a Policy.
PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY - Risk of Loss; Not a Short Term Investment
Not a Short-Term Investment
The Policy is not a short-term investment and is not appropriate for an investor that needs ready access to cash. If you take a withdrawal, any surrender charge will reduce the value of your Policy.
Risks of Underlying Funds
An investment in the Policy is subject to the risk of poor investment performance and can vary depending on the performance of the Underlying Funds. Each Underlying Fund has its own unique risks. A comprehensive discussion of the risks of each Underlying Fund may be found in the Underlying Fund’s prospectus. You should review these investment options before making an investment decision.
PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY - Risks of Underlying Funds
Insurance Company Risks
An investment in the Policy is subject to the risks related to the Company. Any obligations (including under the Fixed Accounts), guarantees, or benefits are subject to the claims-paying ability of the Company. More information about the Company, including its financial strength ratings, is available at https://investors.principal.com/investor-relations/our-business/credit-ratings/default.aspx.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE POLICY - General Account
Contract Lapse
When the Policy lapses, it terminates with no value and no longer provides any life insurance benefit upon the death of the Insured. Poor investment performance, partial surrenders, or policy loans may increase the risk of lapse. If your Policy lapses, you can only reinstate it under certain conditions, including making certain payments.
PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY - Policy Termination (Lapse)

RESTRICTIONS
Location in Statutory Prospectus
Investments
While you may transfer amounts in the Divisions (which invest in shares of a corresponding Underlying Fund) and Fixed Accounts, certain restrictions and transfer fees apply with regard to the number and amount of such transfers. Transfers are also subject to the excessive trading and market timing polices described in this prospectus.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE POLICY - Limitations on Transfers
We reserve the right to remove or substitute Underlying Funds as investment options.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE POLICY - Reservation of Rights
Optional Benefits
Some optional benefits under the Policy are subject to limitations, restrictions, and additional charges, including with respect to their availability and the amounts that may be paid under such benefits.
OPTIONAL BENEFITS UNDER THE POLICY
Withdrawals may reduce the value of a benefit by an amount greater than the value withdrawn, which could significantly reduce the value or even terminate the benefit.
OPTIONAL BENEFITS UNDER THE POLICY
Not all of the options described in the prospectus are available or approved for use in every state.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE POLICY - Material State Variations

TAXES
Location in Statutory Prospectus
You should consult with a tax professional to determine the tax implications of an investment in, and payments received under, the Policy.

TAX ISSUES RELATED TO THE POLICY

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Location in Statutory Prospectus
Investment Professional Compensation
The Company pays compensation to broker-dealers, financial institutions and other parties for the sale of the Policy, including commissions on premiums paid on the Policy. The Company and/or its affiliates may also pay other amounts such as marketing allowances, expense reimbursements and education payments. Such compensation may influence the financial intermediary or sales representative to recommend the purchase of this Policy over competing policies or over other investment options.
PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY - Conflicts of Interest
Exchanges
Some financial representatives may have a financial incentive to offer a new policy in place of the one you already own. You should only exchange an existing Policy if you determine, after comparing the features, fees and risks of both policies, that it is preferable to purchase the new policy rather than continue to own an existing Policy.

APPENDIX A

UNDERLYING FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER THE POLICY

The following is a list of Underlying Funds currently available under the Policy, which is subject to change. Before you invest, you should review the prospectuses for the Underlying Funds, as may be amended from time to time. These prospectuses contain more information about the Underlying Funds and their risks. You can find the prospectuses and other information about the Underlying Funds online at www.principal.com/VULIncome4Report. You can also request this information at no cost by calling 1-800-247-9988 or by sending an email request to lifeinsurance@principal.com.

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

Some of the Underlying Funds are “funds of funds.” A fund of funds is a mutual fund that invests primarily in a portfolio of other mutual funds. Operating expenses shown for a fund of funds include the fees and expenses that such fund incurs indirectly as a result of investing in other funds. More detail about the risks of investing in a fund of funds is available in such fund’s prospectus.

The availability of investment options may vary depending in your financial professional or your financial professional's firm. See GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE POLICY - Financial Intermediary Variations in the prospectus.
