QUALIFICATION AS LIFE INSURANCE
It is the intent that this policy be considered as life insurance for tax
purposes under Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or any other
equivalent section of the Code.
To ensure that the policy qualifies, one of the following tests will apply to
the policy. The test you elected is shown in the Policy Information section.
Your election cannot be changed after issue. We reserve the right to refuse any
premium payments that would cause the policy to fail the test you elected.
GUIDELINE PREMIUM TEST. Under this test, the sum of premiums paid into the
policy may not at any time exceed the guideline premium limitation as of such
time. The guideline premium limitation, is as of any date, the greater of:
(a) the Guideline Single Premium, or
(b) the sum of the Guideline Level Premiums to such date.
If you elected this test, the Guideline Single Premium and the Guideline Level
Premium are shown in the Policy Information section.
CASH VALUE ACCUMULATION TEST. Under this test, the Policy Value may not at any
time exceed the net single premium. The net single premium is the one payment
that would be needed on a specific date to provide the Death Benefit under this
policy. It is computed using the same mortality table and interest rate
specified under the How Values Are Computed provision.
PAYMENT OF PREMIUMS
No insurance will take effect under this policy before we approve the
application and receive the initial premium.
The minimum initial premium is one-twelfth of the No-Lapse Guarantee Premium
shown in the Policy Information section.
(continued)
Page 6
<PAGE> 30
PAYMENT OF PREMIUMS (continued)
Subsequent premiums can be paid at any time at our Service Office, and in any
amount subject to any limitations of the life insurance qualification test you
elect. Any excess premium will be refunded immediately. On request, we will give
you a receipt signed by one of our officers.
You may pay premiums until the life insured reaches Attained Age 100, at which
time, Monthly Deductions will cease and no further premiums may be paid.
We reserve the right to request that you provide us with satisfactory evidence
of insurability if a premium payment would result in an increase in the Death
Benefit that is greater than the increase in Policy Value.
ALLOCATION OF PREMIUM PAYMENTS. You may allocate premiums to any of the
Investment Accounts and/or the Fixed Account. Unless you change the initial
premium allocation specified in your application for this policy, it will
continue to apply to additional premium payments.
Allocation percentages must be zero or a whole number not greater than 100. The
sum of the allocation percentages must equal 100. You may change the allocation
percentages by Written Request to our Service Office. The change will take
effect as of the date we receive your request at our Service Office. You may
also change your allocation percentages by telephone if a currently valid
authorization form is on file with us.
CONTINUATION OF INSURANCE UPON DISCONTINUANCE OF PREMIUM PAYMENTS. If you
discontinue paying premiums, we will continue taking the Monthly Deductions due
from the accumulated Policy Value. Your insurance coverage will continue subject
to the No-Lapse Guarantee provision and the Grace Period section of the Policy
Termination provision.
NO-LAPSE GUARANTEE
Your policy includes a No-Lapse Guarantee. The guarantee period applicable to
this policy is shown in the Policy Information section.
During your No-Lapse Guarantee Period, if the Net Cash Surrender Value falls to
zero or below, your policy will not go into default provided it satisfies the
cumulative premium test.
CUMULATIVE PREMIUM TEST. The test will be performed at the beginning of any
Policy Month that your policy would otherwise be in default in the absence of
the No-Lapse Guarantee. Your policy will satisfy the test if the sum of the
premiums paid, less any Policy Debt, and less any Gross Withdrawals taken on or
before the date of the test, is equal to or greater than the sum of the monthly
No-Lapse Guarantee Premiums due from the Policy Date to the date of the test.
The test will exclude any period during which the life insured was totally
disabled if the Total Disability Waiver Of Monthly Deductions Supplementary
Benefit is included in the policy.
The No-Lapse Guarantee Premium is shown as an annualized amount in the Policy
Information section.
The No-Lapse Guarantee Premium will change if any of the following changes occur
under your policy:
(a) you add, terminate or change a Supplementary Benefit;
(b) you change the Death Benefit Option under your policy;
(c) there is a decrease in the Face Amount of insurance due to a partial
withdrawal;
(d) you change the Face Amount of insurance; or
(e) there is a change in the life insured's Risk Classification.
We will inform you of any change to the No-Lapse Guarantee Premium resulting
from any such change. The revised premium will be effective from the date of the
change. For the purpose of performing the cumulative premium test, we will use
the No-Lapse Guarantee Premium in effect as of the Policy Date up to the date of
the change, including any revised premium in effect as of the date of a prior
change.

<PAGE> 31
POLICY TERMINATION
DEFAULT. Unless the policy has met the No-Lapse Guarantee requirements, it will
go into default if, at the beginning of any Policy Month, the Net Cash Surrender
Value would go to zero or below after we take the Monthly Deduction that is due
for that month.
GRACE PERIOD. We will allow 61 days from the date that the policy goes into
default, for you to pay the amount that is required to bring the policy out of
default. At least 30 days prior to the termination of coverage, we will send a
notice to your last known address, specifying the amount you must pay to bring
the policy out of default. If we have notice of a policy assignment on file at
our Service Office, we will also mail a copy of the notice of the amount due to
the assignee on record.
The amount required to bring the policy out of default is equal to (a) plus (b)
plus (c) where:
(a) is the amount necessary to bring the Net Cash Surrender Value to zero, if
it is less than zero, at the date of default; and
(b) is the Monthly Deduction due on the date of default, plus the next two
Monthly Deductions; and
(c) is the applicable Premium Charge.
If the policy is in the No-Lapse Guarantee Period, then the following amount, if
less than the amount stated above, will bring the policy out of default. This
amount is equal to (a) plus (b), where:
(a) is the amount, if any, necessary to satisfy the No-Lapse Guarantee
cumulative premium test at the date of default; and
(b) is the No-Lapse Guarantee Premium for the next two Policy Months.
If the amount necessary to bring the policy out of default has not been paid by
the end of the grace period, the policy will terminate.
TERMINATION DATE. This policy terminates on the earliest of the following
events:
(a) the end of the grace period for which you have not paid the amount
necessary to bring the policy out of default;
(b) surrender of the policy for its Net Cash Surrender Value; or
(c) the death of the life insured.
REINSTATEMENT
You can ask us to reinstate your policy only if it terminates at the end of a
grace period in which you did not make a required payment. You can reinstate the
policy if you:
(a) make a Written Request for reinstatement within 5 years after the date
your policy terminates;
(b) provide us with evidence of insurability satisfactory to us on the life
insured; and
(c) pay a premium equal to the amount that was required to bring the policy
out of default immediately prior to termination, plus the amount needed to
keep the policy in force to the next scheduled date for payment of the
Planned Premium.
If we approve your request,
(a) the reinstatement date will be the later of the date we approve your
request or the date we receive the required payment at our Service Office;
(b) any Surrender Charges will be reinstated to the amount they were at the
date of default;
(c) any remaining Surrender Charge Period will be reinstated to what it was at
the date of default; and
(d) the Policy Value on the date of reinstatement, prior to the crediting of
any Net Premium paid on the reinstatement, will be equal to the Policy
Value on the date the policy terminated.

INSURANCE BENEFIT
If the life insured dies while the policy is in force, we will pay the Insurance
Benefit on receiving due proof of death, subject to the Age and Sex, Suicide and
Validity provisions.
If the life insured dies after we receive a request from you to surrender the
policy, there will be no Insurance Benefit. We will pay the amount payable under
the Surrender and Withdrawals provision instead.
INSURANCE BENEFIT. The Insurance Benefit payable is:
(a) the Death Benefit as described below; plus
(b) any amounts payable under any Supplementary Benefits that form part of the
policy; less
(c) the value of the Policy Debt as of the date of death.
If the life insured dies during a grace period, the Insurance Benefit described
above will be modified as follows:
(a) the Insurance Benefit will be reduced by any outstanding Monthly
Deductions due; and
(b) the Policy Value used in the calculation of the Death Benefit will be the
Policy Value as of the default date.
DEATH BENEFIT. The Death Benefit will depend on whether Death Benefit Option 1,
2 or 3 is in effect on the date of death.
Under Option 1, the Death Benefit is the Face Amount of the policy at the date
of the life insured's death.
Under Option 2, the Death Benefit is the Face Amount of the policy, plus the
Policy Value at the date of the life insured's death.
Under Option 3, the Death Benefit is the Face Amount of the policy, plus the
Premium Death Benefit Account at the date of the life insured's death.
If any partial withdrawals are made, the Death Benefit, whether it is Option 1,
2 or 3, will be less than it would be if no withdrawals were made. Making a
partial withdrawal will result in a reduction in the Face Amount of insurance
for Death Benefit Option 1 and, in certain circumstances, for Death Benefit
Option 3. See the Surrender and Withdrawals provision for details.
MINIMUM DEATH BENEFIT. If you elected the Guideline Premium Test, the sum of the
Death Benefit as described above and the Benefit payable under any Supplementary
Term Insurance on the life insured will never be less than the Policy Value at
the date of death, multiplied by the applicable percentage in the table below.

by reducing the above Applicable Percentages proportionately.
-------------------------------------------------------------
If you elected the Cash Value Accumulation Test, on any date the sum of the
Death Benefit as described above, plus the Benefit payable under any
Supplementary Term Insurance on the life insured will always be equal to the
amount required on such date to produce a Policy Value that does not exceed the
net single premium required to fund future benefits under the policy.
(continued)
Page 9
<PAGE> 33
INSURANCE BENEFIT (continued)
PAYMENT OF INSURANCE BENEFIT. We will pay the Insurance Benefit in one lump sum
with interest calculated from the date of the life insured's death to the date
of payment. The rate will be at the rate prescribed by the state. If the state
does not specify the interest rate, we will use the rate for insurance benefits
left on deposit with us.
POLICY VALUE
When we receive your premium payments at our Service Office, we subtract the
Premium Charge which will not exceed the amount shown in the Policy Information
section and allocate the balance (the Net Premium) as described below.
INITIAL NET PREMIUM. Based on your allocation instructions we will allocate your
initial Net Premium plus any earned interest on the later of the date our
underwriters approve the application and issuance of the policy or the Business
Day we receive the initial premium at our Service Office. For premiums received
prior to the underwriting decision we will credit interest as of the date we
received the initial premium payment at the rate of return then being earned on
allocations to the Money Market Trust. This initial allocation will become your
Policy Value to which subsequent Net Premiums will be allocated.
SUBSEQUENT NET PREMIUMS. As of the Business Day we receive your subsequent
premium payments at our Service Office, we will add your Net Premium to your
Policy Value, allocating it according to your instructions. We will do this
before we take any deductions due as of that Business Day. However, if evidence
of insurability is required for any premium, we will add it to your Policy Value
as of the Business Day our underwriters approve the evidence, but before we take
any deductions due as of that Business Day.
MONTHLY DEDUCTIONS. At the beginning of each Policy Month, a deduction is taken
from your Net Policy Value to cover specified charges including the cost to
provide the insurance coverage. Monthly Deductions are calculated from the
Policy Date. If you requested a Policy Date which precedes the date on which we
receive the initial premium, Monthly Deductions due for the period prior to
receipt of the initial premium will be taken on the date we receive the initial
premium.
Monthly Deductions are due until the Policy Anniversary on which the life
insured reaches Attained Age 100. If the policy is in force on that date, it
will remain in force without further premium payments or Monthly Deductions,
subject to the Policy Loan Conditions provision.
If the Additional Life Supplementary Benefit is part of your policy, the Monthly
Deductions for that benefit will continue to be deducted until the benefit
terminates.
The Monthly Deduction for any Policy Month is the sum of the following charges
determined as of the beginning of that month:
(a) the Administration Charge;
(b) the Asset-Based Risk Charge;
(c) the Cost of Insurance Charge; and
(d) any applicable Charge for any Supplementary Benefits you have added to
your policy.
The Cost of Insurance Charge is described below. The other charges will not
exceed the amounts and durations shown in the Policy Information section.
You may give us instructions specifying the accounts (Fixed and Investment
Accounts) from which you request us to take the Monthly Deductions and in what
proportion. We will take the deductions according to your instructions if we
approve your request and you have sufficient funds in the accounts. However, we
will deduct the Asset-Based Risk Charge only from the value of each Investment
Account.
(continued)
Page 10
<PAGE> 34
POLICY VALUE (continued)
Absent such a request that has been approved by us, or if you do not have
sufficient funds in an account, we will take the Monthly Deductions (except for
the Asset-Based Risk Charge) from the Fixed Account and the Investment Accounts
in the same proportion that the value in each of these accounts bears to the Net
Policy Value immediately prior to the deduction. We will deduct the Asset-Based
Risk Charge only from the value of each Investment Account.
COST OF INSURANCE CHARGE. The Cost of Insurance for a specific Policy Month is
determined as the rate for the Cost of Insurance for that month, as described
below, multiplied by the net amount at risk.
For Death Benefit Options 1 and 3, the net amount at risk is equal to the
greater of zero, or the result of (a) minus (b), where:
(a) is the Death Benefit as of the first day of the Policy Month, divided by
the Death Benefit Discount Factor shown in the Policy Information section;
and
(b) is the Policy Value as of the first day of the Policy Month after the
deduction of the monthly Cost of Insurance for the life insured.
For Death Benefit Option 2 the net amount at risk is equal to the Face Amount of
insurance.
The rates for the Cost of Insurance, as of the Policy Date and subsequently for
each Face Amount increase, are based on the life insured's Age, Sex, Risk
Classification, net amount at risk, and duration that the coverage has been in
force. We will re-determine Cost of Insurance rates from time to time on a basis
that does not discriminate unfairly within any class of life insured.
The Cost of Insurance calculation will reflect any Additional Rating shown in
the Policy Information section. The Cost of Insurance rates will never exceed
those shown in the Table of Guaranteed Maximum Cost of Insurance Rates on Page 4
plus any Additional Rating.
OTHER DEDUCTIONS. We will deduct a Surrender Charge if during the Surrender
Charge Period shown in the Policy Information section:
(a) you surrender the policy for its Net Cash Surrender Value;
(b) you make partial withdrawals; or
(c) you do not pay an amount due at the end of a grace period, and the policy
terminates.
See the Surrender and Withdrawals provision for details.
POLICY VALUE COMPOSITION
Your Policy Value at any time is equal to the sum of the values you have in the
Loan Account, the Fixed Account and the Investment Accounts.
LOAN ACCOUNT VALUE. The amount you have in the Loan Account at any time equals:
(a) amounts transferred to it for loans or borrowed loan interest; plus
(b) interest credited to it; less
(c) amounts transferred from it for loan repayment.
For the details of the Loan Account see the Policy Loan Conditions provision.
FIXED ACCOUNT VALUE. The amount you have in the Fixed Account at any time
equals:
(a) Net Premiums allocated to it; plus
(b) amounts transferred to it; plus
(c) interest credited to it; less
(d) amounts deducted from it; less
(e) amounts transferred from it; less
(f) amounts withdrawn from it.
(continued)
Page 11
<PAGE> 35
POLICY VALUE COMPOSITION (continued)
Interest will be credited to amounts in the Fixed Account at an effective annual
rate of no less than the Fixed Account Rate shown in the Policy Information
Section. The actual interest rate used will be set by us from time to time. For
all transactions, interest is calculated from the date of the transaction.
INVESTMENT ACCOUNT VALUE. The amount you have in an Investment Account at any
time equals the number of units in that Investment Account, multiplied by the
unit value of the corresponding Sub-Account at that time.
The number of units in an Investment Account at any time equals (a) minus (b),
where:
(a) is the number of units credited to the Investment Account because of:
(1) Net Premiums allocated to it; and
(2) amounts transferred to it; and
(b) is the number of units canceled from the Investment Account because of:
(1) amounts deducted from it;
(2) amounts transferred from it; and
(3) amounts withdrawn from it.
The number of units credited or canceled for a given transaction is equal to the
dollar amount of the transaction, divided by the unit value as of the Business
Day of the transaction. See the Unit Value Calculation section of the Separate
Account and Sub-Accounts provision for details on how unit values are
determined.
POLICY LOAN CONDITIONS
At any time while this policy is in force and has an available loan value, you
can get a loan by Written Request. We may require a loan agreement from you as
the policy is the only security for the loan.
AVAILABLE LOAN VALUE. The available loan value on any date is the Net Cash
Surrender Value, less estimated interest and future Monthly Deductions due to
the next Policy Anniversary.
LOAN ACCOUNT. When you take out a loan, or when loan interest charges are
borrowed, we will do a transfer from the Fixed Account and/or one or more of the
Investment Accounts into the Loan Account. Amounts we transfer into the Loan
Account cover the loan principal plus loan interest due to the next Policy
Anniversary.
A Loan Sub-Account exists for each Investment Account and for the Fixed Account.
Amounts transferred to the Loan Account are allocated to the appropriate Loan
Sub-Account to reflect the account from which the transfer was made.
You may tell us how much of the amount to be transferred to the Loan Account you
wish to allocate to your value in the Fixed Account and each of the Investment
Accounts. If you do not tell us, we will allocate the amounts to be transferred
in the same proportion that your value in the Fixed Account and the Investment
Accounts bears to the Net Policy Value.
When an amount to be transferred is allocated to an Investment Account, we will
redeem units of that Investment Account sufficient in value to cover the
allocated amount. These transfers do not count as a transfer for the purposes of
the Transfers section of the Investment Options provision.
Interest is credited to the Loan Account and interest is also charged on the
Policy Debt, as described under the Loan Interest Charged and the Loan Interest
Credited sections of this provision.
(continued)
Page 12
<PAGE> 36
POLICY LOAN CONDITIONS (continued)
LOAN INTEREST CHARGED. Interest will accrue daily on loans. In the event that
you do not pay the Loan Interest Charged in any Policy Year, it will be borrowed
against the policy and added to the Policy Debt in arrears at the Policy
Anniversary. We will allocate the amount borrowed for interest payment in the
same proportion that your value in the Fixed Account and the Investment Accounts
bears to the Net Policy Value as of the Policy Anniversary.
Loan interest will continue to be charged if there is an outstanding loan when
Monthly Deductions and premium payments cease at the life insured's Attained Age
100.
The policy will go into default at any time the Policy Debt exceeds the Policy
Value. At least 61 days prior to termination, we will send a notice to your last
known address. If you had filed a notice of assignment with us, we will also
send a copy of the notice to the last known address of the assignee on record.
Payment of the loan interest during the 61-day grace period will bring the
policy out of default.
The effective annual Loan Interest Charged Rate is shown in the Policy
Information section.
We will increase the Loan Interest Charged Rate at any time it is determined
that the rate being charged would cause a loan to be taxable under any
applicable ruling, regulation or court decision. We will increase the Loan
Interest Charged Rate to an amount that would result in the transaction being
treated as a loan under federal tax law.
Any change in the Loan Interest Charged Rate will apply to loans you take out
after the change.
LOAN INTEREST CREDITED. Interest will accrue daily to amounts in the Loan
Account. The effective annual Loan Interest Credited Rate is the difference
between the Loan Interest Charged Rate and the Loan Interest Credited
Differential.
The Maximum Loan Interest Credited Differential is shown in the Policy
Information section. Subject to the maximum, we may change the differential as
of 90 days after we send you written notice of such change.
LOAN REPAYMENT. You may repay the Policy Debt in whole or in part at any time
prior to the death of the life insured and while the policy is in force. When
you repay a loan, we credit the amount to the Loan Account, and make a transfer
to the Fixed Account and/or the Investment Accounts.
We will allocate loan repayments as follows:
(a) first to the Fixed Account, until the associated Loan Sub-Account is
reduced to zero;
(b) then to each Investment Account in the same proportion that the value in
the corresponding Loan Sub-Account bears to the value of the Loan Account.
While a loan exists, we will treat the amounts you pay as premiums, unless you
request in writing that they be treated as loan repayments. However, when a
portion of the Loan Account amount is allocated to the Fixed Account, we reserve
the right, where permitted by state law, to require that premium payments be
applied as loan repayments.
SURRENDER AND WITHDRAWALS
SURRENDER OF THE POLICY. You may surrender this policy for its Net Cash
Surrender Value at any date prior to the death of the life insured, by making a
Written Request for surrender and sending us the policy. After we receive your
Written Request to surrender the policy, no insurance will be in force. We will
determine the Net Cash Surrender Value as of the end of the Business Day on
which we receive the policy and your Written Request to surrender it.
During the Surrender Charge Period, we will deduct a Surrender Charge from your
Policy Value if you surrender the policy for its Net Cash Surrender Value or if
it terminates at the end of a grace period. See the Policy Information section.
(continued)
Page 13
<PAGE> 37
SURRENDER AND WITHDRAWALS (continued)
If you have increased the Face Amount of insurance, the Surrender Charge will be
the sum of the Surrender Charge for the initial Face Amount plus the Surrender
Charge for each increase as shown in the Policy Update page amending the policy.
No additional Surrender Charge will be imposed on any portion of an increase in
Face Amount that restores a prior decrease.
PARTIAL NET CASH SURRENDER VALUE WITHDRAWAL. By Written Request, you may make a
request to withdraw a portion of the Net Cash Surrender Value of your policy as
a partial withdrawal.
You may specify the accounts from which we should make the partial Net Cash
Surrender Value withdrawal. If we do not receive such instructions, we will make
the withdrawal in the same proportion that the value in the Fixed Account and
the Investment Accounts bears to the Net Policy Value.
Partial withdrawals will be subject to the following conditions:
(a) they can only be made after the first Policy Anniversary and not more
frequently than once each Policy Month;
(b) we will do the withdrawal as of the end of the Business Day on which we
receive your Written Request;
(c) we will deduct the applicable pro-rata Surrender Charge if the partial
withdrawal occurs during the Surrender Charge Period;
(d) we will reduce the amount of the withdrawal if the amount in all accounts
is not sufficient to pay the withdrawal plus the pro-rata Surrender
Charge; and
(e) we will reduce the amount of the withdrawal if it would otherwise cause
the Face Amount of insurance to fall below the Minimum Face Amount shown
in the Policy Information section.
The pro-rata Surrender Charge we deduct from the Policy Value at the time of a
partial Net Cash Surrender Value withdrawal made during the Surrender Charge
Period will equal the sum of the pro-rata Surrender Charge for the initial Face
Amount and any increase in Face Amount.
The pro-rata Surrender Charge for the initial Face Amount or any increase in
Face Amount will equal (a) divided by (b), multiplied by (c), where:
(a) is the amount of the partial Net Cash Surrender Value withdrawal;
(b) is the Net Cash Surrender Value prior to the withdrawal; and
(c) is the current total Surrender Charge prior to the withdrawal.
We will allocate the deduction of the pro-rata charge for the withdrawal to the
Fixed Account and the Investment Accounts in the same proportion that the
withdrawal from each account bears to the total withdrawal.
If the withdrawal plus the pro-rata Surrender Charge allocated to a particular
account are greater than the value of that account, we will reduce the portion
of the withdrawal allocated to that account. We will reduce the allocated
portion so that the withdrawal plus the pro-rata charge allocated to the account
equal the value of the account.
If Death Benefit Option 1 is in effect at the time of the withdrawal, the Face
Amount will be reduced:
(a) by the amount of the withdrawal plus the pro-rata Surrender Charge, if at
the time of the withdrawal the Death Benefit equals the Face Amount;
otherwise
(b) by the amount, if any, by which the withdrawal plus the pro-rata Surrender
Charge exceeds the difference between the Death Benefit and the Face
Amount. This section (b) applies when the Death Benefit is determined in
accordance with the Minimum Death Benefit provision.
(continued)
Page 14
<PAGE> 38
SURRENDER AND WITHDRAWALS (continued)
If Death Benefit Option 3 is in effect at the time of the withdrawal and the
withdrawal plus the pro-rata Surrender Charge exceeds the Premium Death Benefit
Account, the Face Amount of insurance will be reduced:
(a) by the amount by which the withdrawal plus the pro-rata Surrender Charge
exceeds the Premium Death Benefit Account, if at the time of the
withdrawal the Death Benefit equals the Face Amount plus the Premium Death
Benefit Account; otherwise
(b) by the amount, if any, by which such excess exceeds the difference between
the Death Benefit and the Face Amount plus the Premium Death Benefit
Amount. This section (b) applies when the Death Benefit is determined in
accordance with the Minimum Death Benefit provision.
If there has been a prior increase in Face Amount, then the Face Amount will be
decreased in the same order as if you had requested the decrease. See the
Decrease in Face Amount section of the Changing The Death Benefit Option or The
Face Amount provision.
Each time we deduct the pro-rata Surrender Charge for a partial withdrawal, we
will reduce the remaining Surrender Charge in the same proportion that the
Surrender Charge deducted bears to the total Surrender Charge immediately before
the partial withdrawal.
Partial Net Cash Surrender Value withdrawals do not affect the Face Amount of
your policy if Death Benefit Option 2 is in effect. Nor do partial Net Cash
Surrender Value withdrawals affect the Face Amount of your policy if Death
Benefit Option 3 is in effect and the amount of the withdrawal plus the pro-rata
Surrender Charge does not exceed the Premium Death Benefit Account.
CHANGING THE DEATH BENEFIT OPTION OR THE FACE AMOUNT
You may change your Death Benefit Option or your Face Amount of insurance by
Written Request. Such changes are subject to the general conditions of this
provision and the conditions described in the section for each type of change.
The following general conditions apply to changes in Death Benefit Option or
Face Amount of insurance:
(a) changes may be made once in each Policy Year after the first Policy
Anniversary;
(b) changes will take effect as of the beginning of the next Policy Month
following the date we approve the request; and
(c) we reserve the right to limit any changes that would cause this policy to
fail to qualify as life insurance under the Internal Revenue Code.
A Death Benefit Option Change or a Face Amount Change will cause a change in the
No-Lapse Guarantee Premium. These changes will also cause a change in the
Guideline Single Premium and Guideline Level Premium if you have elected the
Guideline Premium Test for the policy. An additional Surrender Charge Premium
Limit will be associated only with the new Face Amount if it has been added
after restoring prior decreases.
We will inform you of the new premium amounts at the time of the change.
CHANGE FROM DEATH BENEFIT OPTION 1 TO OPTION 2.
The Face Amount of insurance after the change from Option 1 to Option 2 is equal
to the Face Amount immediately before the change minus the Policy Value on the
effective date of the change.
(continued)
Page 15
<PAGE> 39
CHANGING THE DEATH BENEFIT OPTION OR THE FACE AMOUNT (continued)
CHANGE FROM DEATH BENEFIT OPTION 2 TO OPTION 1.
The Face Amount of insurance after the change from Option 2 to Option 1 is equal
to the Face Amount immediately before the change plus the Policy Value as of the
effective date of the change.
CHANGE FROM DEATH BENEFIT OPTION 3 TO OPTION 1.
The Face Amount of insurance after the change from Option 3 to Option 1 is equal
to the Face Amount immediately before the change plus the Premium Death Benefit
Account on the effective date of the change.
We will not allow a change in the Death Benefit Option if it would cause the
Face Amount to decrease below the Minimum Face Amount shown in the Policy
Information section.
We will not increase the Surrender Charge because of an increase in the Face
Amount solely due to a change in the Death Benefit Option.
DECREASE IN FACE AMOUNT. The Minimum Face Amount Decrease is shown in the Policy
Information section. We may change this amount as of 90 days after we send you
written notice of the change.
We will not allow a decrease:
(a) if it is for the reduction or termination of a prior Face Amount increase
which has been in force for less than one year; or
(b) if it would cause the Face Amount to go below the Minimum Face Amount
shown in the Policy Information section.
When you request a decrease in the Face Amount of insurance, we will reduce the
Face Amount in the following order:
(a) the amounts of insurance provided by any increases you may have requested
to the policy Face Amount, starting with the most recent increase until
all such increases are reduced; then
(b) the initial Face Amount of the policy.
INCREASE IN FACE AMOUNT. For an increase in the Face Amount of insurance you
must provide us with evidence of insurability on the life insured that is
satisfactory to us. The Minimum Face Amount Increase is shown in the Policy
Information section. We may change this amount as of 90 days after we send you
written notice of the change.
We reserve the right to refuse a Face Amount increase if the life insured's
Attained Age at the date the increase would be effective is greater than the
maximum issue age for new policies at that time.
The Face Amount of insurance will increase in the following order:
(a) we will restore the Face Amount reduced by the most recent decrease first;
followed by
(b) the next most recent decrease until all decreases are restored; then
(c) we will add the new Face Amount of insurance.
There will be no new Surrender Charge or Surrender Charge Premium Limit
associated with the restoration of prior decreases under (a) or (b) above.
However, there will be a new Surrender Charge and Surrender Charge Premium Limit
associated with the new Face Amount under (c). We will inform you of the new
Surrender Charge and Surrender Charge Premium Limit at the time of the increase.
(continued)
Page 16
<PAGE> 40
CHANGING THE DEATH BENEFIT OPTION OR THE FACE AMOUNT (continued)
You will not necessarily have to pay additional premium with an increase in Face
Amount, but the new Surrender Charge and Surrender Charge Premium Limit may
require an additional premium payment to prevent the policy from going into
default.
For Surrender Charge purposes, the premiums attributable to the new Face Amount
will not exceed the Surrender Charge Premium Limit associated with that
increase.
RIGHT TO CANCEL INCREASES
If you request an increase in Face Amount which results in a new Surrender
Charge and Surrender Charge Premium Limit, you have the same rights to cancel
the increase as described on the front cover of this policy, under the Right to
Return Policy. If canceled, the Policy Value, the Surrender Charge and the
Surrender Charge Premium Limit will be recalculated to the amounts they would
have been, had the increase not taken place. You may request a refund for all or
a portion of premiums paid during this period. Upon payment of the refund, we
will recalculate the Policy Value, the Surrender Charge and the Surrender Charge
Premium Limit to the amounts they would have been, had the premiums not been
paid.
SEPARATE ACCOUNT AND SUB-ACCOUNTS
The Separate Account is authorized to invest in the shares of Manufacturers
Investment Trust, or another management investment company. Each Sub-Account of
the Separate Account purchases shares of a corresponding fund of Manufacturers
Investment Trust or another management investment company.
FUND SUBSTITUTION. An available fund might, in our judgment, become unsuitable
for investment by a Sub-Account. This might happen because of a change of
investment policy; or a change in the applicable laws or regulations; or because
the shares are no longer available for investment; or for some other reason.
If an available fund becomes unsuitable for investment, we have the right to
substitute another fund or another management investment company. Before doing
this, we would first seek, where required, approval from the Securities and
Exchange Commission and the Insurance Commissioner of the State shown in the
Policy Information section.
To the extent permitted by applicable federal and state law, we also have the
right, without your approval, to:
(a) create new separate accounts;
(b) combine any two or more separate accounts including the Separate Account;
(c) make available additional Sub-Accounts investing in additional Funds of
Manufacturers Investment Trust, or another investment company;
(d) eliminate existing Sub-Accounts and stop accepting new allocations and
transfers into the corresponding Fund;
(e) operate the Separate Account as a management investment company under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 or in any other form permitted by law;
(f) de-register the Separate Account under the Investment Company Act of 1940;
(g) transfer assets between the Separate Account and other separate accounts;
and
(h) combine Sub-Accounts or to transfer assets in one Sub-Account to another
Sub-Account.
UNIT VALUE CALCULATION. We will determine the unit values for each Sub-Account
as of the end of each Business Day. When we need to determine a Policy Value or
an amount after the end of a Business Day, or on a day that is not a Business
Day, we will do so as of the next Business Day.
(continued)
Page 17
<PAGE> 41
SEPARATE ACCOUNT AND SUB-ACCOUNTS
(continued)
The value of a unit of each Sub-Account was initially fixed at $10 for the first
Business Day that an amount was allocated, or transferred to the particular
Sub-Account. For any subsequent Business Day, the unit value for that
Sub-Account is obtained by multiplying the unit value for the immediately
preceding Business Day by the net investment factor for the particular
Sub-Account on such subsequent Business Day.
NET INVESTMENT FACTOR. The net investment factor for a Sub-Account on any
Business Day is equal to (a) divided by (b), where:
(a) is the net asset value of the underlying Fund shares held by that
Sub-Account as of the end of such Business Day before any policy
transactions are made on that day; and
(b) is the net asset value of the underlying Fund shares held by that
Sub-Account as of the end of the immediately preceding Business Day after
all policy transactions were made for that day.
We reserve the right to adjust the above formula for any taxes determined by us
to be attributable to the operations of the Sub-Account.
SEPARATE ACCOUNT ASSETS. The assets held in each Sub-Account are used to support
the Policy Values of Single Premium and Flexible Premium Variable Life Insurance
policies. The Separate Account will be used to fund only variable life insurance
benefits.
Income, gains and losses of the Separate Account are credited to, or charged
against, the applicable Sub-Accounts without regard to our other income, gains
and losses.
The assets of the Separate Account are our property. The part of the assets that
is equal to the Investment Account values in respect of all Single Premium and
Flexible Premium Variable Life Insurance policies will not be charged with
liabilities from any other business we conduct. We can transfer to our general
account, Separate Account assets in excess of the liabilities of the Separate
Account arising under the Single Premium and Flexible Premium Variable Life
Insurance policies supported by the Separate Account.
INVESTMENT OPTIONS
TRANSFERS. By Written Request you may transfer portions of your Policy Value
among the Investment Accounts and the Fixed Account. We will also permit
telephone transfers if a currently valid authorization form is on file with us.
Transfers are subject to the following restrictions:
(a) you can make as many transfers in a Policy Year as you want. There is no
charge for the first twelve transfers in any Policy Year. If you make more
than twelve transfers in any Policy Year, the Transfer Fee shown in the
Policy Information section will apply to each subsequent transfer in that
Policy Year. We will consider all transfer requests received on the same
Business Day as one transfer;
(b) you may transfer the Policy Value from any of the Investment Accounts to
the Fixed Account without incurring the transfer charges in (a) above,
provided such transfers occur within:
(1) eighteen months after the Issue Date, as shown in the Policy
Information section of this policy; or
(2) the later of (i) or (ii) below:
(i) 60 days from the effective date of a material change in the
investment objectives of any of the Sub-Accounts; or
(ii) 60 days from the notification date of any such change.
(c) the maximum amount that you can transfer out of the Fixed Account in any
one Policy Year is limited to the greater of:
(1) the Fixed Account Maximum Transfer Percentage shown in the Policy
Information section, multiplied by the value in the Fixed Account at
the previous Policy Anniversary; or
(continued)
Page 18
<PAGE> 42
INVESTMENT OPTIONS (continued)
(2) the Fixed Account Maximum Transfer Amount shown in the Policy
Information section.
(d) any transfer out of the Fixed Account may not involve a transfer to the
Investment Account for the Money Market Trust;
(e) transfer privileges are subject to any restrictions we or the
Manufacturers Investment Trust may impose; and
(f) transfer privileges may be terminated at any time.
ASSET ALLOCATION BALANCER TRANSFERS. If you elect this option, we will
automatically transfer amounts among your specified Investment Accounts in order
to maintain your designated percentage in each account. We will effect the
transfers six months after the Policy Date and each six month interval
thereafter.
The Asset Allocation Balancer Charge for transfers under this option will not
exceed the amount shown in the Policy Information section of this policy. We
will provide you with 90 days written notice of any change in the current
amount.
When you change your premium allocation instructions, your Asset Allocation
Balancer will change so the two are identical. This change will automatically
occur unless you instruct us otherwise, or a Dollar Cost Averaging request is in
effect.
We reserve the right to cease to offer this option as of 90 days after we send
you written notice.
DOLLAR COST AVERAGING. If you elect this option, we will automatically transfer
amounts each month from one Investment Account to one or more of the other
Investment Accounts or the Fixed Account. You must select the amount to be
transferred and the accounts.
If the value in the Investment Account from which the transfer is being made is
insufficient to cover the transfer amount, we will not effect the transfer and
we will notify you.
The Dollar Cost Averaging Charge for transfers under this option will not exceed
the amount shown in the Policy Information section of this policy. We will
provide you with 90 days written notice of any change in the current amount.
We reserve the right to cease to offer this option as of 90 days after we send
you written notice.
AGE AND SEX
If the Age or Sex of the life insured was misstated in the application, we will
change the Face Amount of insurance. The new Face Amount will be determined so
that the Death Benefit will be that which the most recent Cost of Insurance
deduction would have purchased for the correct Age and Sex.
SUICIDE
If within two years after the Issue Date the life insured dies by suicide, while
sane or insane, the policy will terminate and our liability will be limited to:
(a) the premiums paid; less
(b) any partial Net Cash Surrender Value withdrawals; and less
(c) the Policy Debt.
If the life insured dies by suicide, while sane or insane, within two years
after the effective date of an increase in Face Amount, the Death Benefit for
that increase will be limited to the Monthly Deductions taken for the increase.
We reserve the right under this provision to obtain evidence of the manner and
cause of death of the life insured.
PROTECTION AGAINST CREDITORS
If permitted by state law, all payments shall be exempt from the debts and
contracts of the owners and beneficiaries, and from seizure by court order.
Page 19
<PAGE> 43
CURRENCY AND PLACE OF PAYMENT
All payments to or by us will be in U.S. currency. We will make payments from
our Service Office. We may require proof that the person claiming any payment is
entitled to it.
CONTRACT
The policy, application, supplementary benefits, and any endorsements form your
whole contract. A copy of the application is attached to the policy and deemed a
part of it.
We will not be bound by any statement that is not in the application or the
policy. Only our President or one of our Vice-Presidents can agree to amend or
modify the policy or waive any of its provisions. Any change must be in writing.
Statements made by you or the life insured are representations, not warranties,
unless fraud is involved. We will not use any statement by you or the life
insured to deny a claim, unless it is written in the application or any
supplement to the application.
VALIDITY
We have the right to contest the validity of this policy based on
misrepresentations made in the initial application or an application for policy
change that requires evidence of insurability. However, we cannot contest the
validity of your policy after it has been in force during the life insured's
lifetime for two years from the Issue Date.
We cannot contest the validity of an increase in Face Amount or the addition of
a Supplementary Benefit after such increase or addition has been in force during
the life insured's lifetime for two years from the date of such increase or
addition.
We can contest after two years if the policy has been reinstated and has been in
force during the life insured's lifetime for less than two years from the
reinstatement date. If this is the case, we can only contest the validity in
respect of any fact material to the reinstatement that was misrepresented.
NON-PARTICIPATING
Your policy is non-participating. It does not earn dividends.
ANNUAL STATEMENT
Within 30 days after each Policy Anniversary, we will send you a report showing:
(a) the Death Benefit;
(b) the Policy Value;
(c) the current allocation of money in the Fixed Account, the Loan Account and
each of the Investment Accounts;
(d) the value of the units in each Investment Account;
(e) any Loan Account balance and loan interest charged since the last report;
(f) the premiums paid and policy transactions for the year; and
(g) any further information required by law.
TAX CONSIDERATIONS
It is the intent that this policy be considered as life insurance for tax
purposes, to comply with Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or
any other equivalent section of the code. We reserve the right to limit the
amount of premiums paid for this policy, or to make any other reasonable
adjustments to the terms or conditions of this policy if it becomes necessary to
allow it to qualify as life insurance.
We do not give tax advice, and this provision should not be construed to
guarantee that the policy will be treated as life insurance or that the tax
treatment of life insurance will never be changed by the future actions of any
tax authority.
Page 20
<PAGE> 44
RIGHT TO POSTPONE PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
We reserve the right to postpone the payment of Net Cash Surrender Values,
partial Net Cash Surrender Value withdrawals, policy loans and the portion of
the Insurance Benefit that depends on Investment Account values, for any period
during which:
(a) the New York Stock Exchange (Exchange) is closed for trading (other than
customary week-end and holiday closings), or trading on the Exchange is
otherwise restricted;
(b) an emergency exists as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC), as a result of which disposal of securities held in the Separate
Account or determining the value of the Separate Account's net assets is
not reasonably practicable, or the SEC requires that trading be
restricted; or
(c) the SEC permits a delay for the protection of policyholders.
We also reserve the right to postpone payments for up to six months if such
payments are based on values that do not depend on the investment performance of
the Sub-Accounts.
In addition, we may deny transfers under the circumstances stated in (a), (b)
and (c) above, and in the Transfers section of the Investment Options provision.
BENEFICIARY
The following four sections will apply unless there is a beneficiary appointment
in force that provides otherwise.
BENEFICIARY CLASSIFICATION. You can appoint beneficiaries for the Insurance
Benefit in three classes: primary, secondary and final. Beneficiaries in the
same class will share equally in the Insurance Benefit payable to them.
PAYMENT TO BENEFICIARIES. We will pay the Insurance Benefit:
(a) to any primary beneficiaries who are alive when the life insured dies; or
(b) if no primary beneficiary is then alive, to any secondary beneficiaries
who are then alive; or
(c) if no primary or secondary beneficiary is then alive, to any final
beneficiaries who are then alive.
CHANGE OF BENEFICIARY. Until the life insured's death you can change the
beneficiary by Written Request unless you make an irrevocable designation. We
are not responsible if the change does not achieve your purpose. The change will
take effect as of the date you signed such request. It will not apply to any
payments we made or any action we may have taken before we received your Written
Request.
DEATH OF BENEFICIARY. If no beneficiary is alive when the life insured dies, the
Insurance Benefit will be payable to you; or to your estate if you are the life
insured. Unless otherwise provided, if a beneficiary dies before the seventh day
after the death of the life insured, we will pay the Insurance Benefit as if the
beneficiary had died before the life insured.
OWNERSHIP AND ASSIGNMENT
Until the life insured's death, without the consent of any beneficiary, except
an irrevocable beneficiary, you as owner can:
(a) receive any amount payable under your policy;
(b) exercise all rights and privileges granted by the policy; and
(c) assign the policy.
An assignment does not bind us until we receive it at our Service Office. We are
not responsible for its validity or its effects. It should be filed with us in
duplicate. We will return a copy.
(continued)
Page 21
<PAGE> 45
OWNERSHIP AND ASSIGNMENT (continued)
CHANGE OF OWNER. Until the life insured's death, the owner can change the
ownership of the policy by Written Request. The change will take effect as of
the date you signed the Written Request. It will not apply to any payments we
made or any action we may have taken before we received your Written Request.
TRUSTEE OWNER. Should the owner be a trustee, payment to the trustee(s) of any
amount to which the trustee(s) is (are) entitled under the policy, either by
death or otherwise, will fully discharge us from all liability under the policy
to the extent of the amount so paid.
JOINT OWNERSHIP. Two or more owners will own the policy as joint tenants with
right of survivorship, unless otherwise requested on the application or in any
subsequent assignment of the policy. On death of any of the owners, the deceased
owner's interest in the policy passes to the surviving owner(s).
Any rights and privileges that may be exercised by the owner, may be exercised
only with the consent of all joint owners.
SUCCESSOR OWNER. Upon the owner's death during the life insured's lifetime, a
named successor owner will, if then living, have all the owner's rights and
interest in the policy. Until the life insured's death, the owner, without the
consent of any beneficiary or any successor owner, can cancel or change the
designation of successor owner. This may be done from time to time by agreement
in writing with us.
HOW VALUES ARE COMPUTED
We provide Cash Surrender Values that are at least equal to those required by
law. A detailed statement of the method of computing the values of this policy
has been filed with the Insurance Department of the State shown in the Policy
Information section.
We base reserves on the Commissioners 1980 Standard Ordinary Smoker or
Non-Smoker Mortality Table. We also use these tables in determining Guaranteed
Maximum Cost of Insurance Rates.
In computing values related to amounts in the Fixed Account we use the same rate
as the Fixed Account Rate shown in the Policy Information section.

SUPPLEMENTARY BENEFIT
SUPPLEMENTARY TERM INSURANCE
This benefit is part of your policy. Except where the benefit provides
otherwise, it is subject to all the provisions of your policy.
The life insured for this benefit is the same person who is the life insured
under your policy, as shown in the Policy Information section.
EFFECTIVE DATE. The Effective Date for this benefit is shown in the Policy
Information section.
BENEFIT. This benefit provides an additional insurance amount which is level
term life insurance. On receiving due proof that the life insured died while the
benefit was in force, we will pay the benefit amount to the same beneficiary and
in the same manner as the proceeds payable under your policy.
BENEFIT AMOUNT. The Benefit Amount is shown in the Policy Information section.
CHANGING THE BENEFIT AMOUNT. The Benefit Amount can be increased or decreased
only when a corresponding change occurs under your policy resulting from your
Written Request to change the policy Face Amount. The change in the Benefit
Amount will be subject to the following:
(a) the amount of the change will be in the same percentage as the change in
the Face Amount under your policy;
(b) the change will be subject to the same policy conditions that apply to
changing the Face Amount of your policy;
(c) the change will take effect on the same Effective Date as the Face Amount
change under your policy; and
(d) a decrease in the Face Amount of your policy could cause this benefit to
terminate as described in the Termination section below.
BENEFIT COST. The monthly cost of the benefit is one of the Monthly Deductions
under your policy. The monthly cost is equal to (a) multiplied by (b), where:
(a) is the monthly cost of insurance rate per $1,000 of benefit amount; and
(b) is the benefit amount divided by $1,000.
Solely for purposes of determining the monthly cost for this benefit:
(a) if the Death Benefit selected is Option 1, then at the beginning of any
Policy Month in which the Policy Value exceeds the Face Amount of your
policy, we will consider the Benefit Amount to be reduced by such excess;
or
(b) if the Death Benefit selected is Option 3, then at the beginning of any
Policy Month in which the Policy Value exceeds the Face Amount of your
policy plus the sum of the premiums paid to date, we will consider the
Benefit Amount to be reduced by such excess.
The rates for the Cost of Insurance are based on the life insured's Age, Sex,
Risk Classification, and the duration that the coverage has been in force. The
rates for the Cost of Insurance under this benefit will always be less than or
equal to the rates for the Cost of Insurance under the policy. We will
re-determine Cost of Insurance rates from time to time, on a basis that does not
discriminate unfairly within any class of lives insured.
The Cost of Insurance calculation will reflect any Additional Rating shown in
the Policy Information section. The Cost of Insurance rates will never exceed
those shown in the Table Of Guaranteed Maximum Cost Of Insurance Rates on page 4
of your policy, increased for any Additional Rating.
VALIDITY. We cannot contest the validity of this benefit after it has been in
force during the life insured's lifetime for two years from the Effective Date
of this benefit.

For an increase in the Benefit Amount, the validity period will start on the
Effective Date of the increase.
SUICIDE. If the life insured dies by suicide, while sane or insane, within two
years after the Effective Date of this benefit, this benefit will terminate and
we will pay only the amount of Monthly Deductions charged for the benefit.
If the life insured dies by suicide, while sane or insane, within two years
after the effective date of an increase in Benefit Amount, for that increase we
will pay only the Monthly Deductions taken for the increase.
NO-LAPSE GUARANTEE. The No-Lapse Guarantee in your policy applies to this
benefit only during the first two Policy Years.
DEATH BENEFIT GUARANTEE. If the Death Benefit Guarantee is included in your
policy, it does not apply to this benefit.
DEFAULT. This benefit will not go into default during the first two Policy Years
if the No-Lapse Guarantee requirements are met under your policy. Otherwise,
this benefit will go into default if, at the beginning of any Policy Month, the
Net Cash Surrender Value under your policy would go to zero or below after we
take the Monthly Deduction that is due for that month. After the second Policy
Year, this benefit could go into default even if your policy does not go into
default.
GRACE PERIOD. We will allow 61 days from the date that this benefit goes into
default, for you to pay the amount that is required to bring this benefit out of
default or it will terminate. At least 30 days prior to the termination of
coverage, we will send a notice to your last known address, specifying the
amount you must pay to bring this benefit out of default. If we have notice of a
policy assignment on file at our Service Office, we will also mail a copy of the
notice of the amount due to the assignee of record.
The amount required to bring this benefit out of default is equal to (a) plus
(b) plus (c) where:
(a) is the amount necessary to bring the Net Cash Surrender Value under your
policy to zero, if it is less than zero, at the date of default of this
benefit; and
(b) is the monthly cost of this benefit due on the date of default of this
benefit, plus the cost for the next two Policy Months; and
(c) is the applicable Premium Charge.
TERMINATION. The benefit terminates on the earliest of:
(a) termination of your policy, or
(b) the end of the grace period for which you have not paid the amount
necessary to bring this benefit out of default;
(c) the date there is a decrease in the Face Amount of your policy which would
cause the amount of this benefit to fall below the Minimum Benefit shown
in the Policy Information section;
(d) the Policy Anniversary nearest the date the life insured reaches Attained
Age 100; or
(e) the Policy Anniversary following the date we receive your Written Request
for termination of this benefit.
This benefit cannot be reinstated after it terminates.
