Throughout the PAYOUT PHASE section of your Contract, the term "Cash Value" is

may be any plan then offered by us.
Income Base
The Income Base is the greater of Income Base A or Income Base B.
Income Base is used solely for the purpose of calculating the Guaranteed Income
Benefit and does not provide a Cash Value or guarantee performance of any
investment option.
Income Base A.

o After the Rider Date, Income Base A is recalculated as follows on the
Contract anniversary and when a purchase payment or withdrawal is made.

The Guaranteed Income Benefit amount is determined by applying the Income Base
less any applicable taxes to the guaranteed rates for the Income Plan elected by

The following changes are made to your Contract.
Death Benefit Combination The Death Benefit provision of your Contract is
modified as follows:
If the Owner is a natural person, the Death Benefit Combination applies only to
the death of the Owner. If the Owner is not a natural person, the Death Benefit
Combination applies only to the death of the Annuitant. This is unlike the death
benefit defined in the Death Benefit provision of your Contract which may apply
to the death of the Annuitant even if the Owner is a natural person.
The Death Benefit will be the greatest of the values stated in your Contract, or
the value of the Death Benefit Combination.
The Death Benefit Combination is equal to the greater of two separately

below.
After the Rider Date, the Death Benefit Combination is recalculated when a
purchase payment or withdrawal is made or on a Contract anniversary as follows:

o On the Rider Date, Death Benefit A is equal to the Cash Value.

payment or a withdrawal is made or on a Contract anniversary as follows:

recently calculated Death Benefit A plus the purchase payment.
o For withdrawals for all ages, Death Benefit A is equal to the most recently
calculated Death Benefit A reduced by a withdrawal adjustment defined
below.
o Death Benefit A will be recalculated for purchase payments, for withdrawals
and on Contract anniversaries until the first Contract anniversary after
the 85th birthday of the oldest Owner or, if the Owner is not a living
individual, the oldest Annuitant.
In the absence of any withdrawals or purchase payments, Death Benefit A will be
the greater of the Cash Value on the Rider Date and all Contract anniversary
Cash Values between the Rider Date and the date we calculate the Death Benefit.
Death Benefit B

On the Rider Date, Death Benefit B is equal to the Cash Value. After the
Rider Date, Death Benefit B plus any subsequent purchase payments and less

anniversary after the 85th birthday of the oldest Owner or, if the Owner is
not a living individual, the oldest Annuitant.
Withdrawal Adjustment
The withdrawal adjustment is equal to (1) divided by (2) with the result
multiplied by (3) where:

(2) = the Cash Value immediately prior to the withdrawal.
(3) = the most recently calculated Death Benefit A or B, as applicable
