===========================================================================
Beneficiary and Payments
to Beneficiary
===========================================================================
What death benefits are paid if the annuitant or owner dies before settlement?
If the  annuitant  or owner dies  before  settlement  while this  contract is in
force, we will pay the beneficiary the accumulation value.
The  accumulation  value will be determined as of the date on which due proof of
death is received at our home office.
The above  amount  will be  payable  in a lump sum upon  receipt of due proof of
death of the annuitant.
Instead  of a lump  sum,  payment  may be made  under an  annuity  payment  plan
provided amounts are calculated in accordance with the Code, and:
1.      the beneficiary elects the plan within 60 days after we receive due
        proof of death; and
2.      payments begin no later than one year after the date of death; and
3.      the plan provides  equal or  substantially  equal payments over a period
        which does not exceed the life of the beneficiary or the life expectancy
        of the beneficiary.
In this event,  the  references  to  "annuitant"  in the annuity  payment  plans
section will apply to the beneficiary.
To whom are the death benefits payable?
Benefits  will  be paid  equally  to all  primary  beneficiaries  surviving  the
annuitant.  If none  survive,  proceeds  will be paid equally to all  contingent
beneficiaries surviving the annuitant. If no beneficiary survives the annuitant,
we will pay the benefits to you, if living, otherwise to your estate.
30370C
Who is the beneficiary?
The beneficiary or beneficiaries are as named in the application unless you have
since changed the  beneficiary as provided  below.  If the  beneficiary has been
changed,  we will pay any  benefits  in  accordance  with  your  last  change of
beneficiary request.
How do you change the beneficiary?
You may  change  the  beneficiary  any time  while  the  annuitant  is living by
satisfactory  written  request to us. Once the change is recorded by us, it will
take  effect as of the date of your  request,  subject  to any  action  taken or
payment made by us before the recording.
What is the spouse's option to continue this contract?
If the  annuitant's  death  occurs  before  the  settlement  date and before the
annuitant's  age  70  1/2,  the  annuitant's   spouse,  if  designated  as  sole
beneficiary,  may elect in writing to postpone receipt of the death benefit and,
instead,  continue  this  contract in force.  The election by the spouse must be
made within 60 days after we receive  due proof of death.  The  contract  may be
continued  in force  only  until  the date on which  the  annuitant  would  have
attained age 70 1/2. Any annuity  payment plan later  elected by the spouse must
provide amounts calculated in accordance with the Code.
What if the annuitant dies after settlement?
If the annuitant dies after settlement,  the amount payable,  if any, will be as
provided in the annuity plan then in effect.
===========================================================================
Purchase Payment
===========================================================================
What is the purchase payment for this contract?
The  purchase  payment for this  contract is shown under  contract  data.  It is
payable to us on or before the date we deliver this contract. It must be paid or
mailed to us at our home office or to an authorized agent.
30370C
===========================================================================
Accumulation Value,
Cash Surrender Value,
Market Adjusted Value
===========================================================================
How is the accumulation value determined?
On the contract  date, the  accumulation  value of this contract is the purchase
payment.  Thereafter,  interest accrues from day to day for the guarantee period
at the rate shown under contract data. This rate represents an effective  annual
yield. At no time while the contract is in force shall interest accrue at a rate
less than 3% compounded  annually.  The accumulation  value will be adjusted for
any amounts surrendered.
Are there premium tax charges?
We reserve  the right to deduct an amount  from the  accumulation  value of this
contract at the time that any applicable  premium taxes not previously  deducted
are payable.
If a tax is payable at the time of your  purchase  payment  and we choose to not
deduct it at that  time,  we further  reserve  the right to deduct it at a later
date.
How are renewal guarantee periods determined?
At the end of any guarantee  period,  a renewal  guarantee period will begin. We
will  notify you in writing 45 days before the renewal  guarantee  period.  Each
renewal  guarantee  period will be one year unless you elect a different  length
from those offered at the time. We must receive your written request at least 15
days before the renewal  date.  The renewal  guarantee  period may never  extend
beyond the settlement date.
The  accumulation  value on the renewal  date will be equal to the  accumulation
value at the end of the  guarantee  period  just  ending.  This  value will earn
interest at the renewal guarantee rate. Upon written request,  within 45 days of
the renewal  guarantee  period, we will notify you of the renewal guarantee rate
then in effect for contracts renewing at that time. The actual renewal guarantee
rate will be determined on the renewal date.
30370C
What is the market adjusted value and how is it determined?
The market adjusted value is the  accumulation  value on any date before the end
of the current  guarantee period adjusted by a formula.  The formula  adjustment
reflects the relationship between:
1.      the interest rate we are then crediting for new contract sales and
        renewals (Form 30370) for the time remaining in your contract's current
        guarantee period; and
2.      the  guaranteed  interest  rate  applicable to your  contract's  current
        guarantee period.
The market adjusted value may be more or less than the accumulation value.
The market adjusted value formula is as follows:
market adjusted value         =              renewal value
                                             (1 + ic + .0025)(N + t)
where:  renewal value         =       the accumulation value at the end of your
                                      current guarantee period.
               N              =       the number of complete contract years to
                                      the end of your guarantee period.
               t              =       the  fraction  of  the  contract   year
                                      remaining to the end of your contract year
                                      (for example,  if 180 days remain in a 365
                                      day contract year, t would be .493)
               ic             =       the current rate offered for new contract
                                      sales and renewals (Form 30370) for the
                                      number of years left in your guarantee
                                      period (straight line interpolation 
                                      between whole year rates). If N is
                                      zero, ic is the rate for one year
                                      guarantee periods.
30370C
The market value adjustment is as follows:
market value adjustment  =  market adjusted value - accumulation value
There will be no market  value  adjustment  made on the last day of a  guarantee
period.
Can you request surrender of any amounts under this contract before settlement?
Yes. By written request to us and subject to the rules below you may:
1.  surrender this contract for the total cash surrender value;
2. partially surrender this contract for a part of the cash surrender value.
How is the cash surrender value determined?
The cash surrender value is the market  adjusted value less a surrender  charge.
The surrender charge is based on the amount surrendered and the contract year in
which the  surrender is made.  The schedule of surrender  charges is shown under
contract data.
After  the  first  contract  anniversary,  surrender  charges  will not apply to
surrenders of amounts totaling up to 10% of the contract  accumulation  value as
of the last contract anniversary.
What are the rules for a surrender or partial surrender?
The amount  surrendered and any applicable  market value adjustment or surrender
charge will be deducted from the accumulation  value of the contract on the date
of surrender.  You may surrender all or a portion of the cash  surrender  value.
However,  the accumulation  value that remains after a partial surrender must be
at least $2,000. Any partial surrender must be at least $250.
The  surrender  payment will  normally be mailed to you within seven days of the
receipt of your written request.
Upon  surrender  of this  contract  for the total  cash  surrender  value,  this
contract  will  terminate.  We may require that you return this  contract to our
home office before we pay the total cash surrender value.
30370C
What distributions are prohibited if your contract is a TSA?
To meet the  requirements  of  Section  403(b)  of the  Code,  unless  otherwise
provided in the Code, no amounts may be distributed unless you have:
1.  attained age 59 1/2; or
2.  separated from service; or
3.  died; or
4.  become  disabled  (as  defined  in  Section  72(m)(7)  of  the  Code;  or
5.  encountered  hardship  (within the meaning of Section  403(b) of the Code);
    and then only such amounts as the Code may provide.
We will require  satisfactory written proof of the event(s) in items 1 through 5
above prior to any distribution from the contract.
Can we delay or suspend payment of a partial or full surrender?
We may defer payment of any partial or full surrender for a period not to exceed
6 months from the date we receive your surrender request or the period permitted
by state  insurance law, if less. If we defer payment more than 30 days, we will
pay annual interest of at least 3% on the amount deferred.
Will you receive information about your contract values?
Yes.  At  least  once a year we will  send  you a  statement  showing  both  the
accumulation value and the cash surrender value of this contract.  The statement
will specify the surrender  charge and market value adjustment used to determine
the  cash  surrender  value.  This  statement  will  be  based  on any  laws  or
regulations that apply.
We will also notify you 45 days before the end of a guarantee period  concerning
renewal  periods  available  and your right to surrender  without a market value
adjustment on the last day of your guarantee period.
30370C
===========================================================================
Annuity Payment Plans
===========================================================================
When will annuity payments begin?
The first payment will be made as of the settlement date. Before payments begin,
we will require  satisfactory  proof that the  annuitant  is alive.  We may also
require  that you  exchange  this  contract for a  supplemental  contract  which
provides the annuity payments.
Can you change the settlement date?
Yes. Tell us the new date by written request. If you select a new date, it must
be at least 30 days after we receive your written request at our home office.
The settlement date cannot be earlier or later than such date as may be required
or permitted by law or the applicable retirement plan.
Notwithstanding  either of the above,  the settlement  date cannot be later than
the later of:
1.  the contract anniversary nearest the annuitant's 85th birthday; or
2. the 10th contract anniversary.
What are the annuity payment plans?
There are different ways to receive annuity payments. We call these plans.
Plan  A - This  provides  monthly  annuity  payments  for  the  lifetime  of the
annuitant. No payments will be made after the annuitant dies.
Plan  B - This  provides  monthly  annuity  payments  for  the  lifetime  of the
annuitant  with a guarantee by us that  payments will be made for a period of at
least five, ten, or fifteen years. You must select the guaranteed period.
Plan  C - This  provides  monthly  annuity  payments  for  the  lifetime  of the
annuitant with a guarantee by us that payments will be made for a certain number
of months.  We determine  the number of months by dividing  the market  adjusted
value applied under this plan by the amount of the monthly annuity payment.
30370C
Plan D - We call this a joint and survivor life annuity.  Monthly  payments will
be paid for the lifetime of the annuitant and a joint annuitant. When either the
annuitant or joint annuitant dies, we will continue to make monthly payments for
the lifetime of the  survivor.  No payments will be paid after the death of both
the annuitant and joint annuitant.
Plan E - This  provides  monthly fixed dollar  annuity  payments for a period of
years. The period of years may be no less than 10 nor more than 30.
What are the requirements for selecting a plan?
You may elect by written  notice to us at any time at least 30 days prior to the
settlement date to have the market adjusted value applied on the settlement date
to provide:
1.      a lump-sum payment as a result of a total surrender as provided under
        the cash surrender value provision of this contract; or
2.      one of the annuity payment plans shown herein. Amounts payable under any
        such annuity  payment plan will be  calculated  in  accordance  with the
        Code.
        Any such annuity payment plan must be provided:
        a.     in equal or substantially equal payments over a period no longer
               than the life of the annuitant or over the life of the annuitant
               and a joint annuitant; or
        b.     in equal or substantially equal payments over a period which does
               not  exceed the life  expectancy  of the  annuitant,  or the life
               expectancy of the annuitant and a joint annuitant.
        c.     any annuity  payment plan  selected  must also,  if selected by a
               non-spouse   beneficiary,   meet  the  incidental  death  benefit
               requirements under the Code.
If, at least 30 days before the  settlement  date,  we have not  received at our
home  office  your  written  request  to select a plan,  we will  make  payments
according to Plan B with  payments  guaranteed  for 10 years,  unless  otherwise
required by the Code.
If the amount to be applied to a plan is not at least $2,000, or if payments are
to be made to other than a natural person,  we have the right to make a lump-sum
payment of the cash surrender value.
30370C
How will payments be made?
Payments will be made by us by check.  The check must be personally  endorsed by
the payee or payees as well as the annuitant (or joint  annuitant under Plan D).
If the annuitant or joint  annuitant does not endorse the check,  other evidence
must be furnished to show that the annuitant or joint annuitant is still alive.

Table of Settlement Rates
===========================================================================
What will be the amount of the monthly annuity payments?
The amount of each monthly  annuity  payment for each $1,000 of market  adjusted
value  applied  under any payment plan will be based on our Table of  Settlement
Rates in effect at the time of the first  payment.  The amounts will not be less
than those shown in the table below.
The amount of such payments  under plans A, B, and C will depend on the adjusted
age of the annuitant on the  settlement  date. The amount of such payments under
plan D will depend on the adjusted age of the annuitant and the joint  annuitant
on the settlement  date.  Adjusted age means the age on the annuitant's  nearest
birthday  minus an  "adjustment"  based on the calendar year of the birth of the
annuitant as follows:
Calendar                                     Calendar
