PURCHASE PAYMENT ACCUMULATION
OPTIONAL DEATH BENEFIT ENDORSEMENT
This Endorsement is made a part of, and subject to, the other terms and
conditions of the Contract to which it is attached.
This Endorsement modifies the AMOUNT OF DEATH BENEFIT under the DEATH OF OWNER
BEFORE THE ANNUITY DATE and is effective on the Contract Date.
The following are added under the DEFINITIONS section of the Contract:
CONTINUATION DATE
The Date on which We receive, in Our Service Center: (a) the spousal
Beneficiary's written request to continue the Contract in force, and
(b) Due Proof of Death of the Contract Owner. If We receive (a) and (b)
on different dates, the Continuation Date will be the date on which We
receive the additional requirement.
NET PURCHASE PAYMENT
The sum of all Purchase Payments, reduced for any partial withdrawals
(and any fees or charges applicable to such withdrawals) in the same
proportion that the Contract Value was reduced on the date of such
withdrawal.
AMOUNT OF DEATH BENEFIT
If You are age 80 or younger on the Contract Date, and You die prior to the
Annuity Date, the amount of the Death Benefit will be determined based upon the
Death Benefit option You selected on the Application. Once a Death Benefit
option is selected it cannot be changed or terminated.
PURCHASE PAYMENT ACCUMULATION OPTIONAL DEATH BENEFIT CHARGE
On an annual basis, this charge equals [.25%] of Your average daily ending value
of the assets attributable to the Accumulation Units of the Subaccount(s) to
which the Contract is allocated. We deduct this charge daily.
This charge is in addition to the charges in Your Contract.
PURCHASE PAYMENT ACCUMULATION OPTIONAL DEATH BENEFIT
As of the date We receive Due Proof of Death, the Death Benefit will be the
greater of:
(a) The Contract Value; or
(b) Purchase Payment(s) reduced for any partial withdrawals (and any fees
or charges applicable to such withdrawals), in the same proportion that
the Contract Value was reduced on the date of such withdrawal,
compounded at [5%] interest up to the earlier of Your attainment of age
80 or the date of death, plus any Purchase Payment(s) reduced for any
partial withdrawals (and any fees or charges applicable to such
withdrawals) in the same proportion that the Contract Value was reduced
on the date of such withdrawal recorded after the date of death. This
benefit will not exceed two times the Net Purchase Payment(s).

EARNINGS ENHANCEMENT
The Earnings Enhancement is an amount, as described in the Earnings Enhancement
table below that can increase the Death Benefit. Earnings equal the excess of
Your Contract Value over Net Purchase Payment(s) as of the date of death. If You
have earnings in Your Contract at the time We receive Due Proof of Death, We
will add a Percentage of Earnings to the amount of Your Death Benefit, subject
to a maximum benefit described in the Maximum Benefit Percentage defined below.
This Percentage of Earnings is an amount calculated using the percentages
described in the Earnings Enhancement table below. The Percentage of Earnings of
the Net Purchase Payment(s) depends on how long Your Contract was in force prior
to the date of Your death. This benefit is in addition to the Purchase Payment
Accumulation Death Benefit.
