Flexible Premium Deferred Variable Annuity Contract

issued by Depositor

THE VARIABLE ANNUITY Life Insurance Company

in connection with

The Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company Separate Account A

This variable annuity has several investment choices - Variable Portfolios (which are subaccounts of the separate account) and available Fixed Account options. Each Variable Portfolio invests exclusively in shares of one of the Underlying Funds listed in Appendix A to this prospectus.

Please read this prospectus carefully before investing and keep it for future reference. It contains important information about the variable annuity, including a description of all material features of the contract.

If you are a new investor in the contract, you may cancel your contract within 10 days of receiving it without paying fees or penalties. In some states, this cancellation period may be longer. Upon cancellation, you will receive either a full refund of the amount you paid with your application or your total contract value. You should review this prospectus, or consult with your financial representative, for additional information about the specific cancellation terms that apply.
If you are considering funding a tax-qualified retirement plan (e.g., IRAs, 401k or 403b plans) with an annuity, you should know that an annuity does not provide any additional tax deferral treatment of earnings beyond the treatment provided by the tax-qualified plan itself. You should fully discuss this decision with your financial representative.

The Company offers several different variable annuity contracts to meet the diverse needs of our investors. Our contracts may provide different features, benefits, programs, and investment options offered at different fees and expenses. You should carefully consider among other things, whether the features of this contract and the related fees provide the most appropriate solution to help you meet your retirement savings goals.

Beneficiary - The person you designate to receive any benefits under the contract if you or, in the case of a non-natural Owner, the Annuitant dies. If your contract is jointly owned, you and the joint Owner are each other’s primary Beneficiary.

Continuation Contribution - An amount by which the death benefit that would have been paid to the spousal Beneficiary upon the death of the original Owner exceeds the contract value as of the Good Order date. We will contribute this amount, if any, to the contract value upon spousal continuation.

Continuing Spouse - Spouse of original contract Owner at the time of death who elects to continue the contract after the death of the original contract Owner.

Feeder Funds - Each of the following Feeder Funds invests exclusively in shares of a corresponding Master Fund: SA American Funds Global Growth, SA American Funds Growth, SA American Funds Growth-Income, SA American Funds Asset Allocation, and SA American Funds VCP Managed Allocation Variable Portfolios.

Fixed Account - An account, if available, in which you may invest money and earn a fixed rate of return. Fixed Accounts are obligations of the General Account.

Fund-of-Funds - An Underlying Fund that pursues its investment goal by investing its assets in a combination of other Underlying Funds.

General Account - The Company’s account, which includes any amounts you have allocated to available Fixed Accounts and the Secure Value Account, including any interest credited thereon, and amounts owed under your contract for death benefits and/or Living Benefits which are in excess of portions of contract value allocated to the Variable Portfolios.

Income Phase - The period upon annuitization during which we make annuity income payments to you.

Insurable Interest - Evidence that the Owner(s), Annuitant(s) or Beneficiary(ies) will suffer a financial loss at the death of the life that triggers the death benefit. Generally, we consider an interest insurable if a familial relationship and/or an economic interest exists. A familial relationship generally includes those persons related by blood or by law. An economic interest exists when the Owner has a lawful and substantial economic interest in having the life, health or bodily safety of the insured life preserved.

Latest Annuity Date - The first NYSE business day of the month following your 95th birthday.

Trusts - Collectively refers to the AIM Variable Insurance Funds (Invesco Variable Insurance Funds), Franklin Templeton Variable Insurance Products Trust, Goldman Sachs Variable Insurance Trust, Lord Abbett Series Fund, Inc., PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust, Seasons Series Trust, and SunAmerica Series Trust.

Underlying Funds - The underlying investment portfolios of the Trusts in which the Variable Portfolios invest.

Variable Portfolio(s) - The variable investment options available under the contract. Each Variable Portfolio, which is a subaccount of the Separate Account, invests in shares of one of the Underlying Funds. Each Underlying Fund has its own investment objective.

Charges for Early

Withdrawals

You may be subject to charges for early withdrawals. Withdrawal charges do not apply to

certain withdrawals including withdrawals up to the annual penalty-free withdrawal amount

which equals 10% of your Purchase Payments not yet withdrawn.

If you withdraw money from your contract within 7 years following each Purchase Payment,

you may be assessed a withdrawal charge of up to 8%, as a percentage of each Purchase

Payment withdrawn.

For example, if you were to withdraw $100,000 during a withdrawal charge period, you

could be assessed a withdrawal charge of up to $8,000 if your maximum withdrawal charge

is 8%.

Not a Short-Term Investment	•This contract is not designed for short-term investing and may not be appropriate for an investor who needs ready access to cash. •Charges may apply to withdrawals. Withdrawal charges could significantly reduce the value of your investment or the amount that you receive upon taking a withdrawal. Withdrawals may also reduce or terminate contract guarantees. •The benefits of tax deferral, long-term income, and optional Living Benefit guarantees mean that this contract is generally more beneficial to investors with a long investment time horizon.
Risks Associated with Investment Options	•An investment in this contract is subject to the risk of poor investment performance and can vary depending on the performance of the investment options available under the contract. •Each investment option (including each Fixed Account option) has its own unique risks. •You should review the investment options before making an investment decision.

	RESTRICTIONS
Investments	•Certain investment options may not be available under your contract. •You may transfer funds between the investment options, subject to certain restrictions. •Your transfers between the Variable Portfolios are subject to policies designed to deter frequent and short-term trading. •The minimum transfer amount is $100. If less than $100 would remain in an investment option after a transfer, the entire amount must be transferred. •Your ability to transfer amounts to a Fixed Account option may be restricted. •We reserve the right to remove or substitute Underlying Funds as investment options.	Investment Options
Optional Benefits	•Additional restrictions and limitations apply under the contract’s optional benefits. •If you elect an optional Living Benefit: ○Not all investment options may be available and you must invest in accordance with the applicable investment requirements. ○We reserve the right to modify the investment requirements in the future. ○You may be required to invest a certain percentage of your contract value in a certain investment option, including the Secure Value Account which is only available with certain optional Living Benefits. Special transfer and withdrawal restrictions may apply. •Withdrawals that exceed limits specified by the terms of an optional benefit may reduce the value of the benefit by reducing the benefit by an amount greater than the value withdrawn and could terminate the benefit.	Optional Living Benefits Death Benefits
	TAXES
Tax Implications	•You should consult with a tax professional to determine the tax implications of an investment in and payments received under the contract. •If you purchase the contract through a tax-qualified plan or individual retirement account (IRA), there is no additional tax benefit under the contract. •Earnings under your contract are taxed at ordinary income tax rates when withdrawn.

	CONFLICTS OF INTEREST	Location in Prospectus
Investment Professional Compensation	Your financial representative may receive compensation for selling this contract to you in the form of commissions, additional cash compensation, and/or non-cash compensation. We may share the revenue we earn on this contract with your financial representative’s firm. Revenue sharing arrangements and commissions may provide selling firms and/or their registered representatives with an incentive to favor sales of our contracts over other variable annuity contracts (or other investments) with respect to which a selling firm does not receive the same level of additional compensation. You should ask your financial representative about how they are compensated.	Payments in Connection with Distribution of the Contract
Exchanges	Some financial representatives may have a financial incentive to offer you a new contract in place of the one you already own. You should exchange a contract you already own only if you determine, after comparing the features, fees, and risks of both contracts, that it is better for you to purchase the new contract rather than continue to own your existing contract.

OVERVIEW OF THE CONTRACT

Purpose of the Contract

The contract is designed to help you invest on a tax-deferred basis, meet long-term financial goals, and plan for your retirement. You can accumulate assets by investing in the contract’s investment options and then later convert those accumulated assets into a stream of guaranteed income payments from us. The contract includes certain death benefit options that may help financially protect your beneficiaries in the event of your death. Optional Living Benefits may also be available under the contract, which are designed to help you achieve your financial goals and protect against certain financial risks.

This contract may be appropriate for you if you have a long investment time horizon and the contract’s terms and conditions are consistent with your financial goals. It is not intended for people whose liquidity needs require early or frequent withdrawals or for people who intend to frequently trade in the contract’s Variable Portfolios.

Phases of the Contract

Like all deferred annuities, the contract has two phases: (1) the Accumulation Phase (for savings) and (2) the Income Phase (for income).

Accumulation Phase. During the Accumulation Phase, you invest the money under your contract in one or more available investment options to help you build assets on a tax-deferred basis. The available investment options may include:

•

Variable Portfolios. When you invest in a Variable Portfolio, you are indirectly investing in the Variable Portfolio’s Underlying Fund. The Underlying Funds have different investment objectives, strategies, and risks. You can gain or lose money if you invest in a Variable Portfolio.
Additional information about each Underlying

Fund is provided in an appendix to this prospectus. Please see APPENDIX A – UNDERLYING FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER THE CONTRACT.

•

Fixed Accounts. When you invest in a Fixed Account option, your principal is guaranteed and earns interest based on a rate set and guaranteed by the Company.

The amount of money you accumulate under your contract depends (in part) on the performance of the investment options you choose. You may transfer money between investment options during the Accumulation Phase, subject to certain restrictions and possible fees. Your accumulated assets impact the value of your contract’s benefits during the Accumulation Phase, including the death benefit and any optional Living Benefits, as well as the amount available for withdrawal.

Income Phase. When you are ready to receive guaranteed income under the contract, you can switch to the Income Phase, at which time you will start to receive annuity income payments from us. This is also referred to as “annuitizing” your contract. You generally decide when to annuitize your contract, although there are restrictions on the earliest and latest times that your contract may be annuitized. If you do not annuitize or surrender your contract before the latest annuitization date, your contract will be automatically annuitized.

You can choose from the available annuity income options, which may provide income for life, for an available period of time, or a combination of both. You can also choose to receive payments on a variable or fixed basis, or some combination of both. If the payments are fixed, the dollar amount of each payment will not change. If the payments are variable, the dollar amounts for the payments will fluctuate.

There is no death benefit during the Income Phase. Annuity payments may be payable after death depending on the annuity income option that you selected. You cannot take

withdrawals of contract value or surrender the contract during the Income Phase. If you own an optional Living Benefit at the time that you annuitize the contract, you may choose to take annuity income payments in accordance with that Living Benefit. Otherwise, your optional Living Benefit terminates at the beginning of the Income Phase.

Contract Features

Accessing Your Money. You may withdraw money from your contract at any time during the Accumulation Phase. If you make a withdrawal, you may have to pay a withdrawal charge and/or income taxes, including a tax penalty if you are younger than age 59½. Withdrawals may negatively impact the value of your contract’s benefits, and may cause an optional Living Benefit to terminate.

Tax Treatment. You can transfer money between investment options without tax implications, and earnings (if any) on your investments are generally tax-deferred. Earnings are not taxed until they are distributed, which may occur when making a withdrawal, upon receiving an annuity payment, or upon payment of the death benefit.

Optional Living Benefits. You may be able to elect (or may have elected) one of the optional Living Benefits under the contract for an additional fee. Certain Living Benefits are no longer available for election, and any Living Benefit that is available must be elected at the time that the contract is purchased. Each Living Benefit is designed to provide limited protection from unfavorable investment performance during the Accumulation Phase, and can also provide a guaranteed income stream that may last as long as you live.

Death Benefits. If you die during the Accumulation Phase, the Company pays a death benefit to your beneficiary or beneficiaries. The contract includes a Contract Value death benefit equal to the value of the contract at no additional charge. If you elect an optional death benefit (either the Return of Purchase Payment or Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit) for an additional fee, a greater amount may be payable upon death.

Additional Features and Services. Additional features and services under the contract are summarized below. There are no additional charges associated with these features and services unless otherwise noted. Not all features and services may be available under your contract.

•

Secure Value Account. Under certain optional Living Benefits, which include an additional charge, a certain percentage of your investment must be allocated to the Secure Value Account. As a Fixed Account option, amounts allocated to the Secure Value Account are guaranteed with respect to principal and a guaranteed rate of interest.

•

Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) Fixed Accounts. If you invest in a DCA Fixed Account, interest is credited to amounts allocated to that DCA Fixed Account and your money is systematically

transferred from the DCA Fixed Account to one or more investment options over a specified period of time. Automatic transfers do not count towards the number of free transfers per contract year.

•

Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) Program. The DCA program allows you to systematically transfer a specified dollar amount or percentage of contract value from an investment option to one or more eligible investment options. Automatic transfers do not count towards the number of free transfers per contract year.

•

Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program. This program allows you to have your investments periodically rebalanced so that the resulting allocations are consistent with your current investment instructions. Automatic rebalances do not count towards the number of free transfers per contract year.

•

Systematic Withdrawal Program. This program allows you to receive periodic withdrawals from your contract on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis.

•

Automatic Payment Plan. This program allows you to make automatic subsequent Purchase Payments, once you have contributed at least the minimum initial Purchase Payment.

Fee Table FOR CONTRACTS ISSUED ON OR AFTER OCTOBER 13, 2020

Footnotes to the Fee Table:

2 Base Contract Expenses: If you do not elect any optional features, your total Base Contract Expense would be 1.15% annually.

Beneficiary Expenses if Extended Legacy is Elected

If your Beneficiary elects to take the death benefit amount under the Extended Legacy Program, we will deduct an annual Base Contract Expense of 1.15% which is deducted daily from the average daily ending net asset value allocated to the Variable Portfolios. Please see Extended Legacy Program under DEATH BENEFITS.

4 The current initial annual fee rate is set forth in the Rate Sheet Supplement and is guaranteed not to change for the first Benefit Year. Subsequently, the fee rate may change quarterly subject to the parameters identified in the table below. Any fee adjustment is based on a non-discretionary formula tied to the change in the Volatility Index (“VIX®”), an index of market volatility reported by the Chicago Board Options Exchange. In general, as the average value of the VIX decreases or increases, your fee rate will decrease or increase accordingly, subject to the maximums identified in the Fee Table and the minimums described below. Please see APPENDIX C — FORMULA AND EXAMPLES OF CALCULATIONS OF THE POLARIS INCOME MAX AND POLARIS INCOME PLUS DAILY FLEX FEE. If you purchased your contract prior to May 1, 2023, please see APPENDIX G — LIVING BENEFITS FOR CONTRACTS ISSUED PRIOR TO MAY 1, 2023 for the initial annual fee rate applicable to your contract. If you purchased your contract on or after May 1, 2023, please see APPENDIX J - LIVING BENEFIT RATES FOR CONTRACTS ISSUED ON OR AFTER MAY 1, 2023

Number of Covered Persons	Minimum Annual Fee Rate	Maximum Annualized Fee Rate Decrease or Increase Each Benefit Quarter*
One Covered Person	0.60%	±0.40%
Two Covered Persons	0.60%	±0.40%

The fee rate can increase or decrease no more than 0.10% each quarter (0.40%/ 4). If you change your Income Option election on the Activation Date, the quarterly fee rate can increase no more than 0.1625% [(0.40% + 0.25%)/ 4] for the first Benefit Quarter immediately following the Activation Date.

5 If you elect Polaris Income Max or Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex and you change your Income Option on the Activation Date, the Lifetime Income Option Change Fee will be assessed and deducted from your contract value starting on the first Benefit Quarter Anniversary following the Activation Date and quarterly thereafter. The fee is calculated as a percentage of the Income Base. The sum of the Living Benefit fee and Lifetime Income Option Change fee

cannot exceed the Maximum Annual Fee shown in the Optional Living Benefits fee table.

Footnotes to the Fee Table:

1 In Pennsylvania and Texas, any transfer over the limit of 15 will incur a $10 transfer fee.

2 Base Contract Expenses: If you do not elect any optional features, your total Base Contract Expense would be 1.15% annually for contracts issued on or after May 1, 2017 and 1.30% for contracts issued prior to May 1, 2017.

Beneficiary Expenses if Extended Legacy is Elected

3 The fee is calculated as a percentage of the Income Base which determines the basis of the guaranteed benefit. The annual fee is deducted from your contract value at the end of the first quarter following election and quarterly thereafter. For a complete description of how the Income Base is calculated, please see OPTIONAL LIVING BENEFITS below. If you purchased your contract prior to May 1, 2023, please see APPENDIX G — LIVING BENEFITS FOR CONTRACTS ISSUED PRIOR TO May 1, 2023, for a description of the Living Benefit you may have elected.

4 The Initial Annual Fee Rate is guaranteed not to change for the first Benefit Year. Subsequently, the fee rate may change quarterly subject to the parameters identified in the table below. Any fee adjustment is based on a non-discretionary formula tied to the change in the Volatility Index (“VIX®”), an index of market volatility reported by the Chicago Board Options Exchange. In general, as the average value of the VIX decreases or increases, your fee rate will decrease or increase accordingly, subject to the maximums identified in the Fee Table and the minimums described below. If you purchased your contract prior to October 9, 2017, please see APPENDIX G — LIVING BENEFITS FOR CONTRACTS ISSUED PRIOR TO MAY 1, 2023 for applicable formula.

(Contracts issued on or after October 9, 2017)

	Minimum Annual Fee Rate	Maximum Annualized Fee Rate Decrease or Increase Each Benefit Quarter*
One Covered Person	0.60%	±0.40%
Two Covered Persons	0.60%	±0.40%

The fee rate can increase or decrease no more than 0.10% each quarter (0.40%/ 4). For Polaris Income Plus Flex and Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex only, if you change your Income Option election on the Activation Date, the quarterly fee rate can increase no more than 0.1625% [(0.40% + 0.25%)/4] for the first Benefit Quarter immediately following the Activation Date.

(Contracts issued prior to October 9, 2017)

	Minimum Annual Fee Rate	Maximum Annualized Fee Rate Decrease or Increase Each Benefit Quarter*
One Covered Person	0.60%	±0.25%
Two Covered Persons	0.60%	±0.25%

The fee rate can increase or decrease no more than 0.0625% each quarter (0.25%/ 4).

5 If you elect Polaris Income Plus Flex or Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex and you change your Income Option on the Activation Date, the Lifetime Income Option Change Fee will be assessed and deducted from your contract value starting on the first Benefit Quarter Anniversary following the Activation Date and quarterly thereafter. The fee is calculated as a percentage of the Income Base. The sum of the Living Benefit fee and Lifetime Income Option Change fee cannot exceed the Maximum Annual Fee shown in the Optional Living Benefits fee table.

Examples

These examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the contract with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts. These costs include transaction expenses, annual contract expenses, and annual Underlying Fund expenses.

The expense examples below assume that you invest $100,000 in the contract for the time periods indicated; your investment has a 5% return each year; and you incur the maximum or minimum fees and expenses of the Underlying Funds as indicated in the examples.

The first Maximum Expense Examples reflect the most expensive possible combination of charges (including additional charges for optional benefits) for any version of the contract since inception. The second Maximum Expense Examples reflect the most expensive possible combination of charges (including additional charges for optional benefits) for current offerings of the contract. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs at the end of the stated period would be the amounts set forth in the tables below.

Maximum Expense Examples

(assuming annual contract expenses of 1.55% (including the Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit), the optional Polaris Income Plus Daily feature (for the first year calculated at the initial annual fee rate of 1.45% and at the maximum annual fee rate of 2.70% for remaining years) and investment in an Underlying Fund with total expenses of 1.84%*)

If you surrender your contract at the end of the applicable time period:

1 year	3 years	5 years	10 years
$12,158	$22,309	$32,197	$56,801

(2)

If you do not surrender or if you annuitize your contract at the end of the applicable time period:

1 year	3 years	5 years	10 years
$4,158	$16,309	$28,197	$56,801

Minimum Expense Examples

Additional Expense Example Information

In addition to the stated assumptions, the Expense Examples also assume that no transfer fees were imposed. Although premium taxes may apply in certain states, they are not reflected in the Expense Examples.

If you elected other optional features, your expenses would be lower than those shown in the Maximum Expense Examples. The first Maximum Expense Examples assume that the Income Base which is used to calculate the Polaris Income Plus Daily fee equals contract value, that no withdrawals are taken during the stated period, there are two Covered Persons and that the annual maximum fee rate of 2.70% has been reached after the first year. The second Maximum Expense Examples assume that the Income Base which is used to calculate the Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex fee equals contract value, that no

withdrawals are taken during the stated period, there are two Covered Persons and that the annual maximum fee rate of 2.50% has been reached after the first year. The current initial annual fee rate may be higher or lower. Please see the Rate Sheet Supplement.

If you elected optional features, you do not pay fees for optional features once you begin the Income Phase (annuitize your contract); therefore, your expenses will be lower than those shown here. Please see ANNUITY INCOME OPTIONS below.

The 1 year Maximum Expense Example reflect the SunAmerica Series Trust 0.70% fee waiver.

The 1 year Minimum Expense Example reflects the Goldman Sachs Variable Insurance Trust 0.03% fee waiver.

These examples should not be considered a representation of past or future expenses. Actual expenses may be greater or less than those shown.

Principal Risks Of Investing In The Contract

Risk of Loss. Variable annuities involve risks, including possible loss of principal. Your losses could be significant. This contract is not a deposit or obligation of, or guaranteed or endorsed by, any bank. This contract is not federally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board, or any other agency.

Short-Term Investment Risk. This contract is not designed for short-term investing and may not be appropriate for an investor who needs ready access to cash. The benefits of tax deferral, long-term income, and Living Benefit protections mean that this contract is more beneficial to investors with a long investment time horizon.

Withdrawal Risk. You should carefully consider the risks associated with withdrawals under the contract. Withdrawals may be subject to significant withdrawal charges. If you make a withdrawal prior to age 59½, there may be adverse tax consequences, including a 10% IRS penalty tax. A withdrawal may reduce the value of your standard and optional benefits. For instance, a withdrawal will reduce the value of the death benefit. In addition, a withdrawal could reduce the value of an optional Living Benefit by an amount greater than the amount withdrawn and could result in termination of the benefit. A total withdrawal (surrender) will result in the termination of your contract. We may defer payment of withdrawals from a Fixed Account option (including the Secure Value Account) for up to six months when permitted by law.

Variable Portfolio Risk. Amounts that you invest in the Variable Portfolios are subject to the risk of poor investment performance. You assume the investment risk. You can gain or lose money if you invest in these Variable Portfolios. Each Variable Portfolio’s performance depends on the performance of its Underlying Fund. Each Underlying Fund has its own investment risks, and you are exposed to the Underlying Fund’s investment risks when you invest in a Variable Portfolio. You are responsible for allocating Purchase Payments to the Variable Portfolios that are appropriate for you based on your own individual circumstances, investment goals, financial situation, and risk tolerance. You bear the risk of any decline in contract value resulting from the performance of the Variable Portfolio you have selected. In making your investment selections, you should investigate all information available to you including the Underlying Fund’s prospectus, statement of additional information and annual and semi-annual reports. We do not provide investment advice, nor do we recommend or endorse any particular Underlying Fund.

Selection Risk. The optional benefits under the contract were designed for different financial goals and to protect against different financial risks. There is a risk that you may not choose, or may not have chosen, the benefit or benefits (if any) that are best suited for you based on your present or future needs and circumstances, and the benefits

that are more suited for you (if any) may no longer be available. In addition, if you elected an optional benefit and do not use it, or if the contingencies upon which the benefit depend never occur, you will have paid for a benefit that you may not use or benefit from.

Investment Requirements Risk. If you elect an optional Living Benefit, you will be subject to investment requirements that limit the investment options that are available to you and limit your ability to take certain actions under the contract. These investment requirements are designed to reduce our risk that we will have to make payments to you from our own assets. In turn, they may also limit the potential growth of your contract value and the potential growth of your guaranteed benefits.

Managed Volatility Fund Risk. Certain Underlying Funds, including some Underlying Funds that are available under certain optional Living Benefits’ investment requirements, utilize managed volatility strategies. These risk management techniques help us manage our financial risks associated with the contract’s guarantees, like living and death benefits, because they reduce the incidence of extreme outcomes including the probability of large gains or losses. However, these strategies can also limit your participation in rising equity markets, which may limit the potential growth of your contract value and the potential growth of your guaranteed benefits. Certain Underlying Funds advised by our affiliate employ such risk management strategies, which may help us manage our financial risks.

Purchase Payment Risk. Your ability to make subsequent Purchase Payments is subject to certain restrictions. We reserve the right to refuse any Purchase Payment(s), limit the amount of subsequent Purchase Payment(s) with advance notice based on age as shown below and election of optional benefit(s), and may require our prior approval before accepting Purchase Payments greater than the Purchase Payments Limit as defined in the Glossary. There is no guarantee that you will always be permitted to make Purchase Payments.

Minimum Contract Value Risk. Where permitted by state law, we may terminate your contract if your contract value is less than $2,500 as a result of withdrawals and/or fees and charges. We will provide you with 60 days written notice that your contract is being terminated. At the end of the notice period, we will distribute the contract’s remaining value to you.

Financial Strength and Claims-Paying Ability Risk. All guarantees under the contract that are paid from our general account (including under any Fixed Account option) are subject to our financial strength and claims-paying ability.

Business Disruption. Our business is also vulnerable to disruptions from natural and man-made disasters and catastrophes, such as but not limited to hurricanes, windstorms, flooding, earthquakes, wildfires, solar storms, war or other military action, acts of terrorism, explosions

and fires, pandemic (such as COVID-19) and other highly contagious diseases, mass torts, failure of telecommunications or other critical infrastructure and other catastrophes. A natural or man-made disaster or catastrophe may negatively affect the computer and other systems on which we rely, and may also interfere with our ability to receive, pickup and process mail, to calculate Accumulation Unit Values (“AUVs”), process other contract-related transactions, or otherwise provide our services, or have other possible negative impacts. While we have developed and put in place what we believe to be appropriate business continuity and disaster recovery plans and procedures to mitigate operational risks and potential losses related to business disruptions resulting from natural and man-made disasters and catastrophes, there can be no assurance that we, our agents, the Underlying Funds or our service providers will be able to successfully avoid negative impacts resulting from such disasters and catastrophes.

Cybersecurity Risk. We rely heavily on interconnected computer systems and digital data to conduct our variable product business activities. Because our variable product business is highly dependent upon the effective operation of our computer systems and those of our business partners and service providers, our business is vulnerable to physical disruptions and utility outages, and susceptible to operational and information security risks resulting from information systems failure (e.g., hardware and software malfunctions), cyber-attacks, user error or other disruptions to the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of such systems and data. These risks include, among other things, the theft, misuse, corruption, disclosure and destruction of sensitive business data, including personal information, maintained on our or our business partners’ or service providers’ systems, interference with or denial of service attacks on websites and other operational disruptions and/or unauthorized release of confidential customer information, including as a result of social engineering attacks or employee malfeasance. Such systems failures and cyber-attacks or incidents affecting us, any third-party administrator, the Underlying Funds, intermediaries and other affiliated or third-party service providers, as well as our distribution partners, may adversely affect us and your contract value. For instance, systems failures and cyber-attacks may interfere with our processing of contract transactions, including the processing of orders from our website, our distribution partners, or with the Underlying Funds, impact our ability to calculate AUVs, cause the release and possible destruction of confidential customer or business information, impede order processing, subject us and/or our service providers, distribution partners and other intermediaries to regulatory fines and enforcement action, litigation risks and financial losses and/or cause reputational damage. Cyber security risks may also impact the issuers of securities in which the Underlying Funds invest, which may cause the affected Underlying Funds to lose value. There may be an increased risk of cyber-attacks during periods of geo-political or military conflict. Despite our implementation

of policies and procedures, which we believe to be reasonable, that address physical, administrative and technical safeguards and controls and other preventative actions to protect our systems and sensitive business and customer information and reduce the risk of cyber-incidents, there can be no assurance that we or our distribution partners or the Underlying Funds or our service providers will avoid cyber-attacks or information security breaches in the future that may affect your contract and/or personal information.

Purchasing a Polaris Platinum ELITE
Variable Annuity

When you purchase a variable annuity, a contract exists between you and the Company. You are the Owner of the contract.

Maximum Issue Age

We will not issue a contract to anyone age 86 or older on the contract issue date. The age requirements may vary depending on your election of an optional death benefit or other available optional feature:

Without Optional Benefits	With Optional Living Benefit	With Optional Maximum Anniversary Death Benefit
85	80*	80

If a second Covered Person is added or if one of the original Covered Persons is changed to a different Covered Person, the second Covered Person must meet the above age requirements at the time of addition. Please see OPTIONAL LIVING BENEFITS.

Note: In general, we will not issue a Qualified contract to anyone who is age 72 or older, unless it is shown that the minimum distribution required by the IRS is being made. Please see TAXES.

Joint Ownership

A Non-Qualified contract may be jointly owned by a spouse or non-spouse. Joint owners possess an equal and undivided interest in the contract. The age of the older Owner is used to determine the availability of most age driven benefits.

The addition of a joint Owner after the contract has been issued is contingent upon prior review and approval by the Company.

We will not issue a Qualified contract with joint owners, in accordance with tax law.

Spouse

Your spouse (as determined for federal tax law purposes) may jointly own the contract. In certain states, domestic or civil union partners (“Domestic Partners”) qualify for treatment as, or are equal to, spouses under state law.

Non-Spouse

In certain states, we may issue the contract to non-spousal joint owners. Non-spousal joint Owners and Domestic Partners should consult with their tax adviser and/or financial representative as, they may not be able to fully benefit from certain benefits and features of the contract such as the optional Living Benefits, if applicable, and Spousal Continuation of the death benefit.

Please see APPENDIX B — STATE CONTRACT AVAILABILITY AND/OR VARIABILITY for a list of states that require that benefits and features be made to domestic or civil union partners.

Non-Natural Ownership

A trust, corporation or other non-natural entity may only own this contract if such entity has sufficiently demonstrated an Insurable Interest in the Annuitant selected.

At its sole discretion, the Company reserves the right to decline to issue this contract to certain entities. We apply various considerations including but not limited to:

•

Estate planning,

•

Tax consequences, and

•

The propriety of this contract as an investment consistent with a non-natural Owner’s organizational documentation.

For more information on non-natural ownership, please see TAXES. You should consult with your tax and/or legal advisor in connection with non-natural ownership of this contract.

Assignment of the Contract/Change of Ownership

You may assign this contract before beginning the Income Phase. We will not be bound by any assignment until we receive and process your written request at our Annuity Service Center and you have received confirmation.

•

Your rights and those of any other person with rights under this contract will be subject to the assignment.

•

We are not responsible for the validity, tax or other legal consequences of any assignment.

•

An assignment will not affect any payments we may make or actions we may take before we receive notice of the assignment.

We reserve the right not to recognize any assignment, as determined in our sole discretion, if it changes the risk profile of the contract owner, if no Insurable Interest exists, or if not permitted by the Internal Revenue Code.

Please see TAXES for details on the tax consequences of an assignment. You should consult a qualified tax adviser before assigning the contract.

Termination of the Contract for Misstatement and/or Fraud

The Company reserves the right to terminate the contract at any time if it discovers a misstatement or fraudulent representation of any information provided in connection with the issuance or ongoing administration of the contract.

If we learn of a misstatement of age, we reserve the right to fully pursue our remedies including revocation of any age-driven benefits and/or termination of the contract. Please see APPENDIX B — STATE CONTRACT AVAILABILITY AND/OR VARIABILITY for specific information.

Allocation of Purchase Payments

In order to issue your contract, we must receive your initial Purchase Payment and all required paperwork in Good Order, including Purchase Payment allocation instructions.

An initial Purchase Payment is the money you give us to purchase a contract. Any additional money you give us to invest in the contract after purchase is a subsequent Purchase Payment.

Minimum Initial and Subsequent Purchase Payments

	Minimum Initial Purchase Payment	Minimum Subsequent Purchase Payment	Minimum Automatic Subsequent Purchase Payment
Qualified(1)	$4,000	$500	$100
Non-Qualified(1)	$10,000	$500	$100

(1)

These amounts depend upon whether a contract is Qualified or Non-Qualified for tax purposes. For further explanation, please see TAXES.

Purchase Payment Restrictions

We will not allow anyone age 86 or older to add subsequent Purchase Payments after the contract issue date. The attained age restrictions to add subsequent Purchase Payments may vary depending on your election of an optional living benefit or optional death benefit as follows:

Without Optional Benefits	With Optional Living Benefit	With Optional Maximum Anniversary Death Benefit
86	81	81

We reserve the right to refuse any Purchase Payment(s), limit the amount of subsequent Purchase Payment(s) with advance notice and restrict allowance of Purchase Payment(s) based on age as shown above and election of optional benefit(s).

We reserve the right to require Company approval prior to accepting Purchase Payments greater than the Purchase Payments Limit as defined in the Glossary.

•

For contracts owned by a non-natural Owner, we reserve the right to require prior Company approval to accept any Purchase Payment.

•

Purchase Payments that would cause total Purchase Payments in all contracts issued by VALIC, American General Life Insurance Company (“AGL”) and/or The United States Life Insurance Company in the City of New York (“US Life”) to the same Owner and/or Annuitant to exceed the Purchase Payments Limit may also be subject to Company pre-approval.

Submission of Purchase Payments

Purchase Payments will be priced when received at the Annuity Service Center. Delivery of Purchase Payments to any other address may result in a delay in crediting your contract until the Purchase Payment is received at the Annuity Service Center.

Regular Mail:

Purchase Payments submitted by check must be sent to the Premium Processing Center at the following address:

The Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company

Premium Processing Center

P.O. Box 101641

Pasadena, CA 91189-1641

Express Delivery:

Purchase Payments sent by overnight or express delivery must be sent to the Premium Processing Center at the following address:

JPM Chase-VALIC 101641

Premium Processing Center

2710 Media Center Drive

Building #6, Suite 120

Los Angeles, CA 90065-1750

Receipt of Purchase Payments:

Purchase Payments will be picked up at the mailing addresses noted above and forwarded to our Annuity Service Center. Purchase Payments, however, are not considered received by us until received at our Annuity Service Center in Good Order.

We allocate your Purchase Payment to your contract as of the date such Purchase Payment is priced. Initial Purchase Payments received at the Annuity Service Center in Good Order before Market Close will be priced within two NYSE business days after it is received. Initial Purchase Payments received at the Annuity Service Center in Good Order after Market Close will be priced within two NYSE business days after the next NYSE business day.

If we do not have complete information necessary to issue your contract, we will contact you. If we do not receive the

necessary information within five NYSE business days, we will obtain your permission to keep your money until we get the information necessary to issue the contract, or we will send your money back to whomever we received the funds.

Any subsequent Purchase Payment will be priced as of the day it is received by the Annuity Service Center in Good Order before Market Close. If the subsequent Purchase Payment is received at the Annuity Service Center in Good Order after Market Close, it will be priced as of the next NYSE business day.

We invest your subsequent Purchase Payments in the Variable Portfolios and available Fixed Accounts according to any allocation instructions that accompany the subsequent Purchase Payment. If we receive a Purchase Payment without allocation instructions, we will invest the Purchase Payment according to your allocation instructions on file.

Automatic Payment Plan:

Once you have contributed at least the minimum initial Purchase Payment, you can establish an Automatic Payment Plan that allows you to make subsequent Purchase Payments. We reserve the right to modify, suspend or terminate the Automatic Payment Plan at any time should subsequent Purchase Payments no longer be accepted and will notify you prior to exercising that right.

Accumulation Units

We credit your contract with Accumulation Units when you allocate a Purchase Payment to the Variable Portfolios. We determine the value of each Accumulation Unit at the close of every NYSE business day. The value of an Accumulation Unit goes up and down based on the performance of the Variable Portfolios and the fees and expenses under your contract.

The number of Accumulation Units you are credited is calculated the day we process your Purchase Payment. Please see ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS.

The Accumulation Unit value is determined by multiplying the Accumulation Unit value for the preceding NYSE business day by a factor for the current NYSE business day.

The factor is determined by:

dividing the net asset value per share of the Underlying Fund at the end of the current NYSE business day, plus any dividend or capital gains per share declared on behalf of the Underlying Fund as of that day, by the net asset value per share of the Underlying Fund for the previous NYSE business day; and

multiplying it by one minus all applicable daily asset based charges.

We determine the number of Accumulation Units credited to your contract by dividing the Purchase Payment by the Accumulation Unit value for the specific Variable Portfolio.

Example:

We receive a $25,000 Purchase Payment from you on Wednesday. You allocate the money to Variable Portfolio A. We determine that the value of an Accumulation Unit for Variable Portfolio A is $11.10 at Market Close on Wednesday. We then divide $25,000 by $11.10 and credit your contract on Wednesday night with 2,252.2523 Accumulation Units for Variable Portfolio A.

Performance of the Variable Portfolios and the insurance charges under your contract affect Accumulation Unit values. These factors cause the value of your contract to go up and down.

Free Look

You may cancel your contract within ten days after receiving it. We call this a “free look.” Your state may require a longer free look period. Please check your contract or with your financial representative.

To cancel, mail the contract along with your written free look request to:

Annuity Service Center

P.O. Box 15570

Amarillo, Texas 79105-5570.

If you decide to cancel your contract during the free look period we will refund the following:

•

The value of your contract on the day we receive your request in Good Order if received before Market Close.

•

The value of your contract on the next NYSE business day, if the free look request is received after Market Close.

IRA and State Free Look Restrictions

Certain states require us to return your Purchase Payments upon a free look request. Contracts issued as an IRA require the full return of Purchase Payments upon a free look.

If your contract was issued either in a state requiring return of Purchase Payments or as an IRA, and you cancel your contract during the free look period, we return the greater of:

(1)

Purchase Payments; or

(2)

the value of your contract on the day we receive your request in Good Order.

With respect to these contracts, we reserve the right to invest your money in a money market portfolio during the free look period. We will allocate your money according to your instructions at the end of the applicable free look period.

Please see your contract and APPENDIX B – STATE CONTRACT AVAILABILITY AND/OR VARIABILITY for information about the free look period in your state.

Exchange Offers

From time to time, we allow you to exchange an older variable annuity issued by the Company or one of its affiliates, for a newer product with different features and benefits issued by the Company or one of its affiliates. Such an exchange offer will be made in accordance with applicable federal securities laws and state insurance rules and regulations. We will provide the specific terms and conditions of any such exchange offer at the time the offer is made.

Investment Options

You may allocate purchase payments using one or a combination of the investment options and Fixed Accounts, as may be available under your contract:

•

Variable Portfolios

•

Fixed Accounts

•

Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account

•

Secure Value Account (optional Living Benefit only)

If you elect an optional Living Benefit, not all investment options may be available and you must allocate your Purchase Payments in accordance with the applicable investment requirements. Please see Investment Requirements For Optional Living Benefits in APPENDIX A – UNDERLYING FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER THE CONTRACT for the specific investment requirements applicable to your Living Benefit.

Variable Portfolios

The Variable Portfolios available under the contract invest in the Underlying Funds of the Trusts. Additional Variable Portfolios may be available in the future.

Information regarding each Underlying Fund, including (i) its name, (ii) its type, (iii) its investment advisor and any sub-investment advisor, (iv) current expenses, and (v) performance is available in an appendix to this prospectus. See APPENDIX A – UNDERLYING FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER THE CONTRACT.

Each Underlying Fund has issued a prospectus that contains more detailed information about the Underlying Fund. Read these prospectuses carefully before investing. Paper or electronic copies of the Underlying Fund prospectuses may be obtained by calling (855) 421-2692 or visiting our website at www.corebridgefinancial.com/ProductProspectuses.

You may also obtain information about the Underlying Funds by accessing the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s website at www.sec.gov.

From time to time, certain Variable Portfolio names are changed. When we are notified of a name change, we will make changes so that the new name is properly shown. However, until we complete the changes, we may provide

you with various forms, reports and confirmations that reflect a Variable Portfolio’s prior name.

Certain Underlying Funds offered under this contract have similar investment objectives to other Underlying Funds managed by the same advisor or subadvisor. The investment results of the Underlying Funds, however, may be higher or lower than such other Underlying Funds. We do not guarantee or make any representation that the investment results of any of the Underlying Funds will be comparable to the investment results of any other Underlying Fund managed by the same advisor or subadvisor.

You can gain or lose money if you invest in these Variable

Portfolios. You are responsible for allocating Purchase

Payments to the Variable Portfolios as appropriate for your

own individual circumstances, investment goals, financial

situation and risk tolerance. You should periodically review

your allocations and values to ensure they continue to suit

your needs. You bear the risk of any decline in contract

value resulting from the performance of the Variable

Portfolio you have selected. In making your investment

selections, you should investigate all information available

to you including the Underlying Fund’s prospectus,

statement of additional information and annual and

semi-annual reports.

We do not provide investment advice, nor do we

recommend or endorse any particular Underlying Fund.

Please consult your financial representative regarding which of these Variable Portfolios are appropriate for your risk tolerance.

You should read the prospectuses for the Trusts carefully for detailed information about the Underlying Funds, including each Underlying Fund’s investment objective and risk factors.

Selection of Underlying Funds

The Underlying Funds offered through this contract are selected by us and we may consider various factors in the selection process, including but not limited to: asset class coverage, the strength of the investment advisor’s or subadvisor’s reputation and tenure, brand recognition, the alignment of the investment objectives of an Underlying Fund with our hedging strategy, performance and the capability and qualification of each investment firm.

Another factor we may consider is whether the Underlying Fund or its service providers (i.e. the investment advisor and/or subadvisor(s)) or their affiliates will make payments to us or our affiliates in connection with certain administrative, marketing and support services, or whether the Underlying Fund’s service providers have affiliates that can provide marketing and distribution support for sales of the contract. Please see PAYMENTS IN CONNECTION WITH DISTRIBUTION OF THE CONTRACT below.

We review the Underlying Funds periodically and may make changes if we determine that an Underlying Fund no longer

satisfies one or more of the selection criteria and/or if the Underlying Fund has not attracted significant allocations from contract Owners.

Fund-of-Funds

Certain Underlying Funds invest substantially all their assets in other Underlying Funds. These arrangements are referred to as Fund-of-Funds or Master-Feeder Funds, as described below. Expenses for a Fund-of-Funds may be higher than that for other funds because a Fund-of-Funds bears its own expenses and indirectly bears its proportionate share of expenses of the Underlying Funds. As a result, you will pay higher fees and expenses under the Fund-of-Funds structure than if you invested directly in each of the Underlying Funds held in the Fund-of-Funds structure. This will reduce your investment return.

Master-Feeder Funds

Under the Master-Feeder Funds structure, the Feeder Funds do not buy individual securities directly. Rather, each Feeder Fund invests all of its investment assets in a corresponding Master Fund, which invests directly in individual securities.

Under the Master-Feeder structure, you will pay higher fees and expenses than if you invested in an Underlying Fund that invests directly in the same individual securities as the Master Fund. We offer other variable annuity contracts which include Variable Portfolios that invest directly in the Master Funds without investing through a Feeder Fund and they currently assess lower fees and expenses than the Master-Feeder Funds.

Each Feeder Fund may withdraw all its assets from a Master Fund if the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Feeder Fund determines that it is in the best interest of the Feeder Fund and its shareholders to do so.

Volatility Control Funds

Certain Underlying Funds advised by our affiliate employ risk management strategies that are intended to control the Underlying Funds’ overall volatility and to reduce the downside exposure of the Underlying Funds during significant market downturns. Conversely, these Variable Portfolios could limit the upside participation of these Underlying Funds in rising equity markets relative to other Underlying Funds.

These risk management techniques help us to manage our financial risks associated with guarantees, like the living and death benefits because this managed volatility strategy reduces the incidence of extreme outcomes including the probability of large gains or losses.

Trusts

We offer Underlying Funds of affiliated and unaffiliated Trusts. The Trusts serve as the underlying investment vehicles for other variable annuity contracts issued by the Company as well as by other insurance companies.

Neither the Company nor the Trusts believe that offering shares of the Trusts in this manner disadvantages you. The Trusts are monitored for potential conflicts. The Trusts may

have other Underlying Funds, in addition to those listed here, that are not available for investment under this contract.

Unaffiliated Trusts

We offer Underlying Funds of the following unaffiliated Trusts:

•

AIM Variable Insurance Funds (Invesco Variable Insurance Funds) – Series II Shares

•

Franklin Templeton Variable Insurance Products Trust – Class 2 Shares

•

Goldman Sachs Variable Insurance Trust – Class Service Shares

•

Lord Abbett Series Fund, Inc. – Class VC Shares

•

PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust – Class Advisor Shares

Affiliated Trusts

We offer Underlying Funds of the following affiliated Trusts at least in part because they are managed by SunAmerica Asset Management, LLC (“SAAMCo”), an affiliate of the Company. SAAMCo engages subadvisors to provide investment advice for certain Underlying Funds. The Company and/or its affiliates may be subject to certain conflicts of interest as the Company may derive greater revenues from Variable Portfolios offered by a Trust managed by an affiliate than certain other available Variable Portfolios.

•

Seasons Series Trust – Class 3 Shares

•

SunAmerica Series Trust – Class 3 Shares

Substitution, Addition or Deletion of Variable Portfolios

We may, subject to any applicable law, make certain changes to the Variable Portfolios offered in your contract. We may offer new Variable Portfolios or stop offering existing Variable Portfolios. New Variable Portfolios may be made available to existing contract Owners, and Variable Portfolios may be closed to new or subsequent Purchase Payments, transfers or allocations. In addition, we may also liquidate the shares of any Variable Portfolio, substitute the shares of one Underlying Fund held by a Variable Portfolio for another and/or merge Variable Portfolios or cooperate in a merger of Underlying Funds. To the extent required by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, we may be required to obtain SEC approval or your approval.

Fixed Accounts

Your contract may offer a Fixed Account for a guaranteed period. Your Fixed Account interest crediting rates are guaranteed for amounts allocated to each Fixed Account for up to 1 year. Thereafter, for Fixed Accounts other than Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account options (as described below), we will declare annual Fixed Account crediting rates each contract year, and this rate will never be lower than

the minimum guarantee rate as referenced in your contract. Factors that influence the declared Fixed Account renewal rate include, but are not limited to, the level of US treasury rates, credit spreads on corporate bonds and other fixed income instruments, company asset-liability matching strategies, the length of the contract withdrawal charge period and the number of years since your annuity contract was issued. You may obtain current interest rates by calling the Annuity Service Center or by speaking with your financial representative.

Please check with your financial representative regarding the availability of a Fixed Account. Allocations to the Fixed Account are obligations of the General Account. In reliance on certain exemptions and exclusions, interests in the General Account are not registered as securities under the Securities Act of 1933 and not registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. However, the disclosures in the prospectus about the Fixed Accounts are subject to certain provisions of the federal securities laws regarding the accuracy and completeness of disclosures. Please see GENERAL ACCOUNT below.

Minimum Guaranteed Interest Rate

We guarantee that the interest rate credited to amounts allocated to any Fixed Account guarantee periods will never be less than the guaranteed minimum interest rate specified in your contract. Once the rate is established, it will not change for the duration of the guarantee period. The minimum guaranteed interest rate can vary but is never lower than 1%. We determine which, if any, guarantee periods will be offered at any time in our sole discretion, unless state law requires us to do otherwise.

Interest Rate Categories

There are three categories of interest rates for money allocated to the Fixed Accounts. The applicable rate is guaranteed until the corresponding guarantee period expires. With each category of interest rate, your money may be credited a different rate as follows:

•

Initial Rate: The rate credited to any portion of the initial Purchase Payment allocated to a Fixed Account.

•

Current Rate: The rate credited to any portion of a subsequent Purchase Payment allocated to a Fixed Account.

•

Renewal Rate: The rate credited to money transferred from a Fixed Account or a Variable Portfolio into a Fixed Account and to money remaining in a Fixed Account after expiration of a guarantee period.

Transfers/Withdrawals from Fixed Accounts

There are no restrictions with respect to transferring out of or taking a withdrawal from a Fixed Account. If you make a transfer out of or a withdrawal from a Fixed Account prior to the end of a guarantee period, you will be credited

the interest earned up to the time of transfer or withdrawal. When a guarantee period ends, you may leave your money in the same Fixed Account or you may reallocate your money to another Fixed Account, if available, or to the Variable Portfolios. If you do not want to leave your money in the same Fixed Account, you must contact us within 30 days after the end of the guarantee period and provide us with new allocation instructions. We do not contact you. If you do not contact us, your money will remain in the same Fixed Account where it will earn interest at the renewal rate then in effect for that Fixed Account.

We reserve the right to defer payments for a withdrawal from a Fixed Account for up to six months.

If available through our Dollar Cost Averaging Program, you may systematically transfer interest earned in available Fixed Accounts into any of the Variable Portfolios on a monthly basis. Systematic transfers may be started, changed or terminated at any time by contacting our Annuity Service Center.

Check with your financial representative about the current availability of this service.

Fixed Account Restrictions

At any time we are crediting the minimum guaranteed interest rate specified in your contract, we reserve the right to restrict your ability to invest into the Fixed Accounts. All Fixed Accounts may not be available in your state. Please check with your financial representative regarding the availability of Fixed Accounts.

Secure Value Account

If you elect a Living Benefit, a certain percentage of your investment is automatically allocated to the Secure Value Account. The Secure Value Account is only available with the election of a Living Benefit and you may not reallocate your money from the Secure Value Account to another Fixed Account, if available, or to the Variable Portfolios when the guarantee period ends. Please see Investment Requirements for Optional Living Benefits in APPENDIX A – UNDERLYING FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER THE CONTRACT. Allocations to the Secure Value Account are obligations of the General Account. Please see GENERAL ACCOUNT below.

Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Accounts

You may invest initial and/or subsequent Purchase Payments in the dollar cost averaging (“DCA”) Fixed Accounts, if available. The minimum Purchase Payment amounts are as follows:

DCA Fixed Account	Minimum Purchase Payment
6-Month	$600
12-Month	$1,200

•

The DCA Fixed Accounts only accept initial and subsequent Purchase Payments because they are offered as “source” accounts exclusively to facilitate the DCA Program for a specified time period.

•

You may not make a transfer from a Variable Portfolio or available Fixed Account into a DCA Fixed Account. Please see DOLLAR COST AVERAGING PROGRAM below for more information.

•

Unless otherwise directed by you, any Purchase Payment less than the above minimum amounts will automatically be allocated to available investment options according to your current allocation instructions on file.

DCA Interest Rate Crediting

DCA Fixed Accounts credit a fixed rate of interest and can only be elected to facilitate a DCA Program. Interest is credited to amounts allocated to the DCA Fixed Accounts while your money is transferred to available investment options over certain specified time frames. The interest rates applicable to the DCA Fixed Accounts may differ from those applicable to any other Fixed Account but will never be less than the minimum guaranteed interest rate specified in your contract. The minimum guaranteed interest rate can vary but is never lower than 1%. However, when using a DCA Fixed Account, the annual interest rate is paid on a declining balance as you systematically transfer your money to available investment options. Therefore, the actual effective yield will be less than the stated annual crediting rate. We reserve the right to change the availability of DCA Fixed Accounts offered, unless state law requires us to do otherwise.

Dollar Cost Averaging Program

Under the DCA Program, you systematically transfer a specified dollar amount or percentage of contract value from a Variable Portfolio, available Fixed Account or DCA Fixed Account (“source account”) to any available investment options (“target account”).

The DCA Program allows you to invest gradually in available investment options at no additional cost. The DCA Program is designed to lessen the impact of market fluctuations on your investment. However, the DCA Program can neither guarantee a profit nor protect your investment against a loss. When you elect the DCA Program, you are continuously investing in securities fluctuating at different price levels. You should consider your tolerance for investing through periods of fluctuating price levels.

Example of DCA Program

Assume that you want to move $750 each month from one Variable Portfolio to another Variable Portfolio over six

months. You set up a DCA Program and purchase Accumulation Units at the following values:

Month	Accumulation Unit Value	Units Purchased
1	$7.50	100
2	$5.00	150
3	$10.00	75
4	$7.50	100
5	$5.00	150
6	$7.50	100

You paid an average price of only $6.67 per Accumulation Unit over six months, while the average market price actually was $7.08. By investing an equal amount of money each month, you automatically buy more Accumulation Units when the market price is low and fewer Accumulation Units when the market price is high. This example is for illustrative purposes only.

DCA Program Guidelines

•

Fixed Accounts are not available as target accounts for the DCA Program.

•

Transfers occur on a monthly periodic schedule.

•

The minimum transfer amount under the DCA Program is $100 per transaction, regardless of the source account.

•

Transfers resulting from your participation in the DCA Program are not counted towards the number of free transfers per contract year.

Allocation of Subsequent Purchase Payments to DCA Program

If you have not elected an optional Living Benefit and you choose to allocate subsequent Purchase Payments to an active DCA Program with an available Fixed Account serving as the source account, the rate applicable to that Fixed Account at the time we receive the subsequent Purchase Payment will apply. Further, we will begin transferring subsequent Purchase Payments into your target account allocations on the same day of the month as the initial active DCA Program. Therefore, you may not receive a full 30 days of interest prior to the first transfer to the target account(s). Please see DOLLAR COST AVERAGING FIXED ACCOUNTS above for more information.

Termination of DCA Program

You may terminate the DCA Program at any time. If you terminate the DCA Program and money remains in the DCA Fixed Account(s), we transfer the remaining money according to your current allocation instructions on file.

Upon notification of your death, we will terminate the DCA Program and transfer the remaining money according to the current allocation instructions on file.

Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program

Market fluctuations may cause the percentage of your investment in the Variable Portfolios to differ from your original allocations. Automatic Asset Rebalancing typically involves shifting portions of your money into and out of investment options so that the resulting allocations are consistent with your current investment instructions.

Under the Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program:

•

You may elect to have your investments in the Variable Portfolios and/or Fixed Accounts, if available, periodically rebalanced to return your allocations to preselected percentages for no additional charge.

•

At your request, rebalancing occurs on a quarterly, semiannual or annual basis.

•

Transfers resulting from your participation in this program are not counted against the number of free transfers per contract year.

Changes to Rebalancing Instructions

If you make a transfer, you must provide updated rebalancing instructions. If you do not provide new rebalancing instructions at the time you make such transfer, we will change your ongoing rebalancing instructions to reflect the percentage allocations among the new Variable Portfolios and/or Fixed Accounts, if available, resulting from your transfer which will replace any previous rebalancing instructions you may have provided (“Default Rebalancing Instructions”). You may change any applicable Default Rebalancing Instructions at any time by contacting the Annuity Service Center. If we cannot complete automatic rebalancing according to your current instructions due to Variable Portfolio changes, we reserve the right to allocate the applicable amounts that would have been transferred to the impacted Variable Portfolio(s) to a money market option available under the contract.

Upon notification of your death, we will terminate the Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program.

Mandatory Rebalancing with Election of a Living Benefit

If you elect an optional Living Benefit, we will automatically enroll you in the Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program with quarterly rebalancing. If at any point, for any reason, your rebalancing instructions would result in allocations inconsistent with the investment requirements, we will revert to the last compliant instructions on file and we will notify you of such reversion. If we cannot complete automatic rebalancing according to your current instructions due to Variable Portfolio changes (including closures, substitutions, or mergers), we reserve the right to allocate the applicable amounts that would have been transferred to the impacted Variable Portfolio(s) to a money market option available under the contract. In addition, any amount of your

investment allocated to the Secure Value Account cannot be rebalanced. Please see OPTIONAL LIVING BENEFITs below.

Automatic asset rebalancing will continue if it is a requirement of an optional Living Benefit that remains in effect pursuant to your Spousal Beneficiary’s election of Spousal Continuation.

We reserve the right to modify, suspend or terminate the Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program at any time and we will notify you 30 days prior to exercising that right. In the event of modification, we will administer the program according to the parameters of the modification. In the event of suspension or termination of the program, we will no longer administer the program and your investments will no longer be rebalanced.

Transfers During the Accumulation Phase

Subject to the Company’s rules, restrictions and policies (including short term trading policies) described below, you may transfer funds between the Variable Portfolios and/or any available Fixed Accounts.

•

Funds already in your contract cannot be transferred into the DCA Fixed Accounts, if available.

•

You must transfer at least $100 per transfer.

•

If less than $100 remains in any Variable Portfolio or Fixed Account after a transfer, that amount must be transferred as well.

Please see APPENDIX B - STATE CONTRACT AVAILABILITY AND/OR VARIABILITY for state-specific fees.

Accepting Transfer Requests

We cannot guarantee that we will be able to accept telephone, fax and/or internet transfer instructions at all times. Any telephone, fax or computer system, whether it is yours, your broker-dealer’s, or ours, can experience outages or delays for a variety of reasons and may prevent our processing of your transfer request. If telephone, fax and/or internet access is unavailable, you must make your transfer request in writing by U.S. Mail to our Annuity Service Center at the address above.

We reserve the right to modify, suspend or terminate telephone, fax and/or internet transfer privileges at any time and we will notify you prior to exercising the right of suspension.

Pricing Transfer Requests

Any transfer request will be priced as of the day it is received by us in Good Order if the request is received before Market Close. If the transfer request is received after Market Close, the request will be priced as of the next NYSE business day.

Short-Term Trading Policies

This variable annuity contract is not designed to support frequent trading or trading strategies that seek to benefit from short-term price fluctuations or price inefficiencies in the Variable Portfolios of this product (“Short-Term Trading”) and we discourage Short-Term Trading as more fully described below.

Risks of Short-Term Trading

Short-Term Trading may create risks that may result in adverse effects on the investment return of the Underlying Fund in which a Variable Portfolio invests. Such risks may include, but are not limited to: (1) interference with the

management and planned investment strategies of an Underlying Fund; (2) dilution of the interests in the Underlying Fund due to practices such as “arbitrage”; and/or (3) increased brokerage and administrative costs due to forced and unplanned fund turnover. These circumstances may reduce the value of the Variable Portfolio. In addition to negatively impacting the Owner, a reduction in contract value may also be harmful to Annuitants and/or Beneficiaries.

We have adopted the following administrative procedures to discourage Short-Term Trading which are summarized below.

Standard U.S. Mail Policy

Under the Standard U.S. Mail Policy, all transfers must be submitted by U.S. Mail for 12-months. The 15th transfer in a 12-month look-back period (“12-Month Rolling Period”) triggers the Standard U.S. Mail Policy.

Transfer Requests under the U.S. Mail Policy

•

While the U.S. Mail Policy is in effect, we will not accept transfer requests sent by any other method except U.S. Mail.

•

Transfer requests required to be submitted by U.S. Mail can only be cancelled by a written request sent by U.S. Mail with the appropriate paperwork received prior to the execution of the transfer.

•

All transfers made on the same day prior to Market Close are considered one transfer request for purposes of applying the Short-Term Trading policy and calculating the number of free transfers.

•

Transfers resulting from your participation in the DCA or Automatic Asset Rebalancing Programs are not included for the purposes of determining the number of transfers before applying the Standard U.S. Mail Policy.

•

We apply the Standard U.S. Mail Policy uniformly and consistently to all contract Owners except for omnibus group contracts. See Omnibus Group Contracts below for more information.

Example

For example, if you made a transfer on August 21, 2025 and within the previous twelve months (from August 22, 2024 forward) you made 15 transfers including the August 21st transfer, then all transfers made for twelve months after August 21, 2025 must be submitted by U.S. Mail (from August 22, 2025 through August 21, 2026).

Accelerated U.S. Mail Policy

We may become aware of transfer patterns among the Variable Portfolios and/or Fixed Accounts which appear to be Short-Term Trading or otherwise detrimental to the Variable Portfolios but have not yet triggered the Standard

U.S. Mail Policy described above. If such transfer activity comes to our attention, we may require you to adhere to our Standard U.S. Mail Policy prior to reaching the specified number of transfers.

Additional Short-Term Trading Restrictions

To the extent we become aware of Short-Term Trading activities which cannot be reasonably controlled solely by the Standard U.S. Mail Policy or the Accelerated U.S. Mail Policy, we reserve the right to evaluate, in our sole discretion, whether to:

impose further limits on the size, manner, number and/or frequency of transfers you can make;

impose minimum holding periods;

reject any Purchase Payment or transfer request;

terminate your transfer privileges; and/or

request that you surrender your contract.

We will notify you in writing if your transfer privileges are modified, suspended or terminated. In addition, we reserve the right not to accept or otherwise restrict transfers from a third party acting for you and not to accept pre-authorized transfer forms.

Enforcement Determination Factors

Some of the factors we may consider when determining whether to accelerate the Standard U.S. Mail Policy, reject transfers or impose other conditions on transfer privileges include:

•

the number of transfers made in a defined period;

•

the dollar amount of the transfer;

•

the total assets of the Variable Portfolio involved in the transfer and/or transfer requests that represent a significant portion of the total assets of the Variable Portfolio;

•

the investment objectives and/or asset classes of the particular Variable Portfolio involved in your transfers;

•

whether the transfer appears to be part of a pattern of transfers to take advantage of short-term market fluctuations or market inefficiencies;

•

the history of transfer activity in the contract or in other contracts we may offer; and/or

•

other activity, as determined by us, that creates an appearance, real or perceived, of Short-Term Trading or the possibility of Short-Term Trading.

Applicability to Third Party Trading Services

The Standard and Accelerated U.S. Mail Policies are applied uniformly and consistently to contract Owners utilizing third party trading services/strategies performing asset allocation services for a number of contract Owners at the same time. You should be aware that such third party trading services may engage in transfer activities that can also be

detrimental to the Variable Portfolios, including trading relatively large groups of contracts simultaneously. These transfer activities may not be intended to take advantage of short-term price fluctuations or price inefficiencies. However, such activities can create the same or similar risks as Short-Term Trading and negatively impact the Variable Portfolios as described above.

Deterrence Limitations

Notwithstanding the administrative procedures above, there are limitations on the effectiveness of these procedures. Our ability to detect and/or deter Short-Term Trading is limited by operational systems and technological limitations, as well as our ability to predict strategies employed by contract Owners (or those acting on their behalf) to avoid detection. We cannot guarantee that we will detect and/or deter all Short-Term Trading and it is likely that some level of Short-Term Trading will occur before it is detected and steps are taken to deter it. To the extent that we are unable to detect and/or deter Short-Term Trading, the Variable Portfolios may be negatively impacted as described above.

Additionally, the Variable Portfolios may be harmed by transfer activity related to other insurance companies and/or retirement plans or other investors that invest in shares of the Underlying Fund. Moreover, our ability to deter Short-Term Trading may be limited by decisions by state regulatory bodies and court orders which we cannot predict.

You should be aware that the design of our administrative procedures involves inherently subjective decisions which we attempt to make in a fair and reasonable manner consistent with the interests of all Owners of this contract. We do not enter into agreements with contract Owners whereby we permit or intentionally disregard Short-Term Trading.

Omnibus Group Contracts

Omnibus group contracts may invest in the same Underlying Funds available in your contract but on an aggregate, not individual basis. Thus, we have limited ability to detect Short-Term Trading in omnibus group contracts and the Standard U.S. Mail Policy does not apply to these contracts. Our inability to detect Short-Term Trading may negatively impact the Variable Portfolios as described above.

We reserve the right to modify the policies and procedures described in the TRANSFERS DURING THE ACCUMULATION PHASE section at any time. To the extent that we exercise this reservation of rights, we will do so uniformly and consistently unless we disclose otherwise.

Underlying Funds’ Short-Term Trading Policies

Please note that the Underlying Funds have their own policies and procedures (outlined in their respective prospectus) with respect to frequent purchases and redemptions of their respective shares which may be more or less restrictive than ours.

•

We reserve the right to enforce these Underlying Fund policies and procedures, including, but not limited to, the right to collect a redemption fee on shares of the Underlying Fund if imposed by such Underlying Fund’s Board of Trustees/Directors. As of the date of this prospectus, none of the Underlying Funds impose a redemption fee.

•

We also reserve the right to reject, with or without prior notice, any purchase, transfer or allocation into a Variable Portfolio if the corresponding Underlying Fund will not accept such purchase, transfer or allocation for any reason.

We are obligated to execute instructions from the Underlying Funds to restrict or prohibit further purchases or transfers in an Underlying Fund under certain circumstances.

Processing Omnibus Orders

Many investments in the Underlying Funds outside of these contracts are omnibus orders from intermediaries such as other separate accounts or retirement plans. If an Underlying Fund’s policies and procedures fail to successfully detect and discourage Short-Term Trading, there may be a negative impact to the Owners of the Underlying Fund. If an Underlying Fund believes that an omnibus order we submit may reflect transfer requests from Owners engaged in Short-Term Trading, the Underlying Fund may reject the entire omnibus order and delay or prevent us from implementing your transfer request.

Required Information Sharing

Under rules adopted by the SEC, we also have written agreements with the Underlying Funds that obligate us to, among other things, provide the Underlying Funds promptly upon request certain information about you (e.g., your social security number) and your trading activity.

Transfers During the Income Phase

During the Income Phase, only one transfer per month is permitted between the Variable Portfolios. No other transfers are allowed during the Income Phase. Transfers will be effected for the last NYSE business day of the month in which we receive your request for the transfer.

You may not use the DCA Program or the Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program during the Income Phase.

Voting Rights

The Company is the legal owner of the Trusts’ shares. However, when an Underlying Fund solicits proxies in conjunction with a shareholder vote, we must obtain your instructions on how to vote those shares. We vote all of the shares we own in proportion to your instructions. This includes any shares we own on our own behalf. As a result of this proportionate voting, the vote of a small number of contract Owners can determine the outcome of a vote.

Should we determine that we are no longer required to vote in the manner described above, we will vote the shares in our own right.

Access to your Money

You can access money in your contract in one of the following ways:

•

Partial Withdrawal;

•

Systematic Withdrawal;

•

Total Withdrawal (also known as surrender); or

•

Annuity Income Payment (during Income Phase).

Withdrawals made prior to age 59½ may result in a 10% IRS penalty tax. Certain Qualified plans restrict and/or prohibit your ability to withdraw money from your contract. Please see TAXES.

Minimum Withdrawal Amount and Minimum Contract Value

	Minimum Withdrawal Amount	Minimum Contract Value(1)
Partial Withdrawal	$1,000	$2,500(2)
Systematic Withdrawal	$100	$2,500(2)

(1)

The value left in any Variable Portfolio or available Fixed Account must be at least $100 after a withdrawal.

(2)

The total contract value must be at least $2,500 after a withdrawal.

Where permitted by state law, we may terminate your contract if your contract value is less than $2,500 as a result of withdrawals and/or fees and charges. We will provide you with 60 days written notice that your contract is being terminated. At the end of the notice period, we will distribute the contract’s remaining value to you.

If you elected an optional Living Benefit, withdrawals taken under the parameters of the feature that reduce contract value below the minimum contract value will not terminate your contract. Please see OPTIONAL LIVING BENEFITs below.

Penalty-Free Withdrawal Amount

Your contract provides for a penalty-free withdrawal amount each contract year during the applicable withdrawal period. The penalty-free withdrawal amount is the portion of your contract that we allow you to take out without being charged a withdrawal charge. The penalty-free withdrawal amount does not reduce the basis used to calculate future annual penalty-free withdrawals and withdrawal charges.

Your maximum annual penalty-free withdrawal

amount equals 10% of remaining Purchase Payments not

yet withdrawn each contract year, and still subject to

withdrawal charges.

If you elect an optional Living Benefit, please see

Penalty-Free Withdrawal Amount under "What are the

effects of withdrawals on Polaris Income Max?" and

"What are the effects of withdrawals on Polaris Income

Plus Daily Flex?" under OPTIONAL LIVING

BENEFITS below.

Purchase Payments that are no longer subject to a withdrawal charge and not previously withdrawn may also be withdrawn penalty-free.

If, in any contract year, you choose to take less than the full penalty-free withdrawal amount, then you may not carry over the unused amount as an additional penalty-free withdrawal in subsequent years.

Assessment of Withdrawal Charges

We deduct a withdrawal charge applicable to any amount of a partial or total withdrawal in excess of your penalty-free withdrawal amount made before the end of the withdrawal charge period. Before purchasing this contract, you should consider the effect of withdrawal charges on your investment if you need to withdraw more than the annual penalty-free amount during the withdrawal charge period. You should fully discuss this decision with your financial representative.

The withdrawal charge percentage is determined by the number of years the Purchase Payment has been in the contract at the time of the withdrawal. Please see WITHDRAWAL CHARGES and EXPENSES.

When you make a partial withdrawal, we deduct it from any remaining annual penalty-free withdrawal amount first, next from remaining Purchase Payments on a first-in, first-out basis, and then from any remaining contract value. This means that you will access your Purchase Payments that are lower or no longer subject to withdrawal charges before those Purchase Payments that are still subject to withdrawal charges or higher withdrawal charges.

If you request a total withdrawal (surrender) of your contract, we may also deduct any premium taxes, if applicable. If you fully surrender your contract, withdrawal charges will be assessed against the amount of Purchase Payments subject to withdrawal charges. This means that, if you surrender your contract while withdrawal charges still apply, any prior penalty-free withdrawal amounts taken in the current contract year are not subtracted from the total Purchase Payments still subject to withdrawal charges. Please see EXPENSES.

Calculating Withdrawal Charges

For the purpose of calculating the withdrawal charge if you request a total withdrawal of your contract, any prior penalty-free withdrawal amount, including a required minimum distribution, in the current contract year is not subtracted from the total Purchase Payments still subject to withdrawal charges.

Example:

For example, you make an initial Purchase Payment of $100,000. For purposes of this example we will assume a 0% growth rate over the life of the contract, no subsequent Purchase Payments and no election of optional features, if applicable. In contract year 2, you take out your maximum penalty-free withdrawal of $10,000. After that penalty-free withdrawal your contract value is $90,000. In the 3rd contract year, you request a total withdrawal of your contract. We will apply the following calculation:

A–(B × C)=D, where:

A=
Your contract value at the time of your request for withdrawal ($90,000)

B=
The amount of your Purchase Payments still subject to withdrawal charge ($100,000)

C=
The withdrawal charge percentage applicable to the age of each Purchase Payment (assuming 5% is the applicable percentage) [B × C=$5,000]

D=
Your full contract value ($85,000) available for total withdrawal

Required Minimum Distributions

If you are taking required minimum distributions applicable to this contract only, we waive any withdrawal charges applicable to those withdrawals. Please see TAXES for details regarding required minimum distributions.

Annuity Income Payments

Any time after your second contract anniversary, you may receive annuity income payments for a specified period of time and at a frequency as elected by you. We will waive any applicable withdrawal charges upon processing of your request to annuitize the contract. Please see ANNUITY INCOME OPTIONS.

Processing Withdrawal Requests

A request to access money from your contract, as outlined above, must be submitted in writing and in Good Order to the Annuity Service Center at the following address. Withdrawals are processed effective the date they are deemed in Good Order and payments are made within 7 days. If you take a partial withdrawal, you can choose whether any applicable withdrawal charges are deducted from the amount withdrawn or from the contract value remaining after the amount withdrawn. If you fully surrender your contract value, we deduct any applicable withdrawal charges from the amount surrendered.

For withdrawals of $500,000 and more, you are required to include a signature guarantee issued by your broker-dealer which verifies the validity of your signature.

Annuity Service Center

P.O. Box 15570

Amarillo, TX 79105-5570

Any request for withdrawal will be priced as of the day it is received by us in Good Order at the Annuity Service Center, if the request is received before Market Close. If the request for withdrawal is received after Market Close, the request will be priced as of the next NYSE business day. Withdrawals are processed effective the date they are deemed in Good Order and payments are made within 7 days.

We may be required to suspend or postpone the payment of a withdrawal for any period of time when: (1) the NYSE is closed (other than a customary weekend and holiday closings); (2) trading with the NYSE is restricted; (3) an emergency exists such that disposal of or determination of the value of shares of the Variable Portfolios is not reasonably practicable; (4) the SEC, by order, so permits for the protection of contract Owners.

Additionally, we reserve the right to defer payments for a withdrawal from a Fixed Account for up to six months.

Partial, Systematic, and Required Minimum Distributions

Partial withdrawals, systematic withdrawals and required minimum distributions will be made proportionately from each Variable Portfolio and the Fixed Account in which you are invested, unless you provide different instructions.

If you surrender your contract, we may deduct any premium taxes, if applicable. Please see EXPENSES.

Optional Living Benefit Withdrawals

Partial Withdrawals under an optional Living Benefit must be deducted proportionately from each Variable Portfolio and Secure Value Account in which you are invested. You cannot request withdrawals from one or more specific funds in which you are invested.

Total Withdrawals

We calculate withdrawal charges upon total withdrawal of the contract on the day after we receive your request in Good Order. Any prior penalty-free withdrawal amount in the current contract year is not subtracted from the total Purchase Payments still subject to withdrawal charges. We will return your contract value less any applicable fees and charges within 7 calendar days of the request.

Systematic Withdrawal Program

During the Accumulation Phase, you may elect to receive periodic withdrawals under the Systematic Withdrawal Program for no additional charge. Under the program, you may choose to take monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or

annual payments from your contract. Electronic transfer of these periodic withdrawals to your bank account is available.

Please contact our Annuity Service Center which can provide the necessary enrollment forms. A withdrawal charge may apply if the amount of the periodic withdrawals in any year exceeds the penalty-free withdrawal amount permitted each year.

If you elect a Living Benefit and choose to receive periodic withdrawals under the Systematic Withdrawal Program on or after the Activation Date, you must request withdrawals on the appropriate Living Benefit enrollment form. The Systematic Withdrawal Program may not be established before the Activation Date. If we receive your request on another form, your request will not be processed. The Systematic Withdrawal Program for contracts with a Living Benefit is designed to provide withdrawal amounts within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount. Any amounts taken above your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount while enrolled in the Systematic Withdrawal Program will eliminate the remaining systematic withdrawals within the same contract year and may permanently reduce future guaranteed withdrawal amounts. The Systematic Withdrawal Program will be re-established in the following contract year after such withdrawals, and the annualized systematic withdrawals will be adjusted to account for the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount. If you must take Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) from this contract and want to ensure that these withdrawals will not permanently reduce future guaranteed withdrawal amounts on or after the Activation Date, your total distribution(s) during the current contract year must not exceed the greater of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount under the Living Benefit or the RMD amount as calculated by our Annuity Service Center. You may establish a Systematic Withdrawal Program to take your RMD, which will ensure the amount taken does not exceed either the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount under the Living Benefit or RMD amount as calculated by our Annuity Service Center.

Upon notification of your death, we will terminate the Systematic Withdrawal Program.

We reserve the right to modify, suspend or terminate the Systematic Withdrawal Program at any time and we will notify you prior to exercising that right.

Nursing Home Waiver

If you are confined to a nursing home for 60 days or longer, we may waive the withdrawal charge on partial or total withdrawals made while you are in a nursing home or within 90 days after you leave the nursing home.

•

You cannot use this waiver during the first 90 days after your contract is issued.

•

The confinement period for which you seek the waiver must begin after you purchase your contract.

•

We will only waive withdrawal charges on withdrawals paid directly to the contract owner, and not to a third party or other financial services company.

In order to use this waiver, you must submit the following documents to the Annuity Service Center:

a doctor’s note recommending admittance to a nursing home;

an admittance form which shows the type of facility you entered; and

the bill from the nursing home which shows that you met the 60 day confinement requirement.

Please see APPENDIX B — STATE CONTRACT AVAILABILITY AND/OR VARIABILITY for state specific information regarding the availability of the Nursing Home Waiver.

Optional Living Benefits

General Information Applicable to All Living Benefits

These optional Living Benefits are designed for individuals and their spouses who are seeking participation in the growth potential of the stock market and desire protection features that provide guaranteed lifetime/retirement income. The Living Benefits are designed to provide the contract owner(s) lifetime income with the flexibility to activate income at any time. Polaris Income Max allows the contract owner guaranteed rising income through Income Credits prior to the Activation Date. Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex allows the contract owner greater flexibility of investment options while providing the ability for the Income Base to step up more frequently to Step-up Values. If a contract is jointly owned by non-spousal joint Owners (which can include Domestic Partners) and either Owner dies, the surviving Owner must make an election in accordance with the death benefit provisions of the contract

in compliance with the IRC, which terminates the Living Benefit. Please see DEATH BENEFITS below. Accordingly, the surviving Owner may not receive the full benefit of the Living Benefits.

Any withdrawals taken may be subject to a 10% IRS tax penalty if you are under age 59½ at the time of the withdrawal. For information about how the Living Benefit is treated for income tax purposes, you should consult a qualified tax adviser concerning your particular circumstances. In addition, if you have a Qualified contract, tax law and the terms of the plan may restrict withdrawal amounts.

Certain Living Benefits are no longer offered or have changed since first being offered. If your contract was issued prior to May 1, 2023, please see APPENDIX G — LIVING BENEFITS FOR CONTRACTS ISSUED PRIOR TO May 1, 2023 for details regarding those benefits.

Below is a glossary of Living Benefit Terms and a summary of the key features of the optional Living Benefits offered in your contract.

Protected Income Payment

The amount to be paid each year over the lifetime of the Covered Person(s) after the Activation Date, if and when the contract value is reduced to zero, but the Income Base is still greater than zero or if the Latest Annuity Date has been reached.

Overview of Living Benefits

The optional Living Benefits are designed to help you create a guaranteed income stream based on a series of withdrawals you may take from your contract that may last as long as you live, or as long as you and your spouse live. As long as you take these withdrawals within the parameters of the Living Benefit, you will receive a guaranteed income stream for life even if the entire contract value has been reduced to zero. Alternatively, you should know that you may also receive annuity income payments for life if you annuitize your contract. Please see ANNUITY INCOME OPTIONS below.

You may elect one of the optional Living Benefits, both of which are guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits, for an additional fee only at the time of contract issue. The Living Benefits may offer protection in the event your contract value declines due to unfavorable investment performance, if you live longer than expected or combination of these factors. You may never need to rely on this protection as the benefit’s value is dependent on your contract’s performance, your withdrawal activity and your longevity. If you do not expect to take any withdrawals, then electing the Living Benefit would not be appropriate. Though the optional Living Benefits offer additional protections, the additional fee associated with the benefits has the impact of reducing the net investment return. If you elect a Living Benefit, prior to activating Lifetime Income, any withdrawal that reduces the contract value to zero will terminate the contract including its optional Living Benefit. However, although market performance and fees can reduce the contract value to zero, they will not result in the termination of your contract and its benefits.

Excess Withdrawals may significantly reduce the value of or terminate the Living Benefit; therefore, election of the Living Benefit may not be appropriate for a contract owner who intends to take withdrawals greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount allowable under the Living Benefit.

Please see POLARIS INCOME MAX and POLARIS INCOME PLUS DAILY FLEX below for a more detailed description of each Living Benefit following the summary for information regarding how the benefit works, its availability,

applicable restrictions, fees and additional considerations. You should consider each Living Benefit thoroughly and understand it completely before deciding to elect a Living Benefit.

Polaris Income Max and Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex

How does Polaris Income Max work?

Polaris Income MaxSM locks in the greater of two values to determine the Income Base. The Income Base is initially equal to the first Purchase Payment. The Income Base is automatically locked in on each Benefit Year Anniversary, as the greater of (1) the Higher Anniversary Value, or (2) the Income Base increased by any available Income Credit.

Polaris Income Max offers guaranteed lifetime income plus the opportunity to increase income by locking in the greater of either the contract’s Higher Anniversary Value, or an Income Base with an annual Income Credit, if any. If you elect Polaris Income Max, you may choose from Income Options 1, 2 or 3, but must elect the date on which your Lifetime Income is activated (the “Activation Date”).

Polaris Income Max allows you flexibility to make a one-time change to your initial elections of: 1) Covered Person(s) (the “Covered Person Change”) and 2) Income Options (the “Income Option Change”) on the Activation Date. The Covered Person Change is also permitted where there is a marriage, divorce, or death prior to the Activation Date (the “Life Change Event”) of one of the original Covered Person(s). You may take withdrawals prior to the Activation Date and those withdrawals will not lock in the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage and Protected Income Payment Percentage. However withdrawals taken prior to the Activation Date will reduce the Income Base, Income Credit Base, and Purchase Payments in the same proportion by which the contract value is reduced by the withdrawal.

The annual Income Credit is an amount we may add to the Income Base each year prior to the Activation Date. The Income Credit is determined by multiplying the Income Credit Percentage by the Income Credit Base.

Prior to Activation Date, if withdrawals are taken, the Income Credit amount is reduced because it will be based on the proportionately reduced Income Credit Base.

On or after the Activation Date, the Income Credit will no longer be available.

Please see “How do increases to the Income Base and Income Credit Base work under Polaris Income Max?” below.

How does Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex work?

Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex® offers guaranteed lifetime income plus the opportunity to increase income by locking in Step-up Values. If you elect Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex, you may choose from Income Options 1, 2, or 3,

but must elect the date on which your Lifetime Income is activated (the “Activation Date”).

Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex allows you flexibility to make a one-time change to your initial elections of: 1) Covered Person(s) (the “Covered Person Change”) and 2) Income Option (the “Income Option Change”) on the Activation Date. The Covered Person(s) Change is permitted where there is a marriage, divorce, or death prior to the Activation Date (the “Life Change Event”) of the original Covered Person(s). At least one of the original named Covered Person(s) must remain on the contract. You may take withdrawals prior to the Activation Date and those withdrawals will not lock in the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage and Protected Income Payment Percentage. However, withdrawals taken prior to the Activation date will reduce the Income Base and Purchase Payments in the same proportion by which the contract value is reduced by the withdrawal.

Prior to the Activation Date, the Income Base step-ups, if any, occur on a daily basis. The Income Base is the basis for the Covered Person(s)’ Lifetime Income. The Income Base is initially equal to the first Purchase Payment, increased by any subsequent Purchase Payments, if any, and reduced proportionately for any withdrawals made. In addition, you will be eligible for the Minimum Income Base on every Benefit Year Anniversary prior to the Activation Date. The Minimum Income Base is a specified percentage of the Purchase Payment(s). The Purchase Payment(s) used to calculate the Minimum Income Base are reduced for any withdrawals taken prior to the Activation Date.

On or after the Activation Date, the Minimum Income Base will no longer increase on future Benefit Anniversaries. Please see “How do increases to the Income Base work under Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex?” below.

Please consult with your financial representative regarding which Living Benefit is appropriate for you.

The Initial Annual Fee Rate, Minimum Income Base Percentage, Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages, Protected Income Payment Percentages, and Income Credit Percentage are set forth in the Rate Sheet Supplement that must accompany this prospectus. If you

need another copy of the prospectus or Rate Sheet Supplement, please call us at the Annuity Service Center at (800) 445-7862 or visit our website at www.corebridgefinancial.com/ProductProspectuses. All Rate Sheet prospectus supplements will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and are available on the EDGAR system at www.sec.gov, file number 333-201800.

Are there investment requirements if I elect a Living Benefit?

Yes, you must allocate your assets, including Purchase Payments and the Continuation Contribution, if any, to a combination of the Secure Value Account and Variable Portfolios as detailed below.

With respect to amounts allocated to the Secure Value Account, the crediting interest rate will never be less than the guaranteed minimum interest rate specified in your contract. The crediting interest rate, once established, will not change for each allocation to the Secure Value Account for the duration of the guarantee period. The guarantee period for the Secure Value Account is a one year period that automatically renews every year from the date of each allocation to the Secure Value Account, unless the Living Benefit has been cancelled. Each allocation to the Secure Value Account may have different crediting interest rates. You may not reallocate your money in the Secure Value Account to a DCA Fixed Account or Fixed Account, if available, or to the Variable Portfolios at any time unless the Living Benefit is cancelled.

You may use available DCA Fixed Accounts to invest your target allocations in accordance with the investment requirements.

Please see Investment Requirements for Optional Living Benefits in APPENDIX A - UNDERLYING FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER THE CONTRACT for specific investment requirements applicable to your Living Benefit.

How do my investment requirements impact my feature and contract?

Before you elect a Living Benefit, you should carefully consider whether the investment requirements associated with the Living Benefits meet your investment objectives and risk tolerance.

restrictions would reduce the likelihood that the Company would use its own assets to make payments in connection with the Living Benefit guarantee. You may never need to rely on this protection as the benefit’s value is dependent on your contract’s performance, your withdrawal activity and your longevity. Though the optional Living Benefits offer additional protections, the additional fee associated with the benefits has the impact of reducing the net investment return. Please consult your financial representative regarding which Variable Portfolios are appropriate for the Living Benefit you elected.

To be considered in Good Order, your allocation instructions for any Purchase Payment as well as your target allocations if you invest in a DCA Fixed Account must comply with the investment requirements, provided under Investment Requirements for Optional Living Benefits in APPENDIX A - UNDERLYING FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER THE CONTRACT, for the amount not invested in the Secure Value Account. You may not transfer any amounts between the Secure Value Account and the Variable Portfolios or DCA Fixed Accounts. The Secure Value Account may not be used as a target account if you are using the DCA Program to comply with investment requirements. You may not request any specific amount of any withdrawal to be deducted solely from the Secure Value Account. Rather, any withdrawal reduces the amount invested in the Secure Value Account in the same proportion that the withdrawal reduces the contract value.

We may revise the investment requirements for any existing contract to the extent that Variable Portfolios are added, deleted, substituted, merged or otherwise reorganized. We will promptly notify you in writing of any changes to the investment requirements due to additions, deletions, substitutions, mergers or reorganizations of the investment options. The required allocation percentage to the Secure Value Account will not change for the life of your contract.

Rebalancing and Investment Requirements

We will automatically enroll you in the Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program with quarterly rebalancing. If rebalancing instructions are not provided, we will align your rebalancing allocations with your Purchase Payment allocation instructions, or if using a DCA Fixed Account, your target DCA instructions. We require quarterly rebalancing because market performance, transfers, and withdrawal activity may result in your contract’s allocations going outside these requirements. Quarterly rebalancing will ensure that your allocation will continue to comply with the investment requirements for this feature.

we will update your ongoing rebalancing instructions to reflect the percentage allocations resulting from that transfer (“Default Rebalancing Instructions”) which will replace any previous rebalancing instructions you may have provided.

If at any point, for any reason, your rebalancing instructions would result in allocations inconsistent with the investment requirements, we will revert to the last compliant instructions on file. You can modify your rebalancing instructions, as long as they are consistent with the investment requirements, at any time by calling the Annuity Service Center. If we cannot complete automatic rebalancing according to your current instructions due to Variable Portfolio changes (including closures, substitutions, or mergers), we reserve the right to allocate the applicable amounts that would have been transferred to the impacted Variable Portfolio(s) to a money market option available under the contract. Please see AUTOMATIC ASSET REBALANCING PROGRAM above.

We will not rebalance amounts in the Secure Value Account or DCA Fixed Accounts under the Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program.

What are the factors used to calculate Polaris Income Max?

The Lifetime Income offered by Polaris Income Max is calculated by considering the factors described below.

First,we determine if the Anniversary Value is the Higher Anniversary Value. The Anniversary Value equals your contract value on any Benefit Year Anniversary.

Second,we determine the Income Base which initially is equal to the first Purchase Payment. The Income Base is increased by each Purchase Payment received and is reduced proportionately for any withdrawals taken prior to the Activation Date and Excess Withdrawals taken on or after the Activation Date.

Third,we determine the Income Credit Base which is used solely as a basis for calculating the Income Credit prior to the Activation Date. The initial Income Credit Base is equal to the first Purchase Payment. The Income Credit Base is increased by each Purchase Payment received and is reduced proportionately for any withdrawals taken prior to the Activation Date.

Fourth, we determine the Income Credit. The Income Credit is equal to the applicable Income Credit Percentage multiplied by the Income Credit Base on each Benefit Year Anniversary, prior to the Activation Date. On or after the Activation Date, the Income Credit will no longer be available.

Date but your Income Base is greater than zero, the Protected Income Payment Percentage represents the percentage of the Income Base you will receive each Benefit Year thereafter until the death of the Covered Person(s).

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage and Protected Income Payment Percentage are determined by three factors upon the Activation Date: 1) whether there is one or two Covered Person(s); 2) the age of the Covered Person(s); and 3) the Income Option elected. Additionally, if applicable to the Income Option you elect, the Protected Income Payment Percentage may differ depending on whether withdrawals are taken before age 65 and if a new Higher Anniversary Value is achieved on or after the Covered Person(s) 65th birthday.

Please see the Rate Sheet Supplement that must accompany this prospectus for the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, Protected Income Payment Percentage, and Income Credit Percentage. If you need another copy of the prospectus or Rate Sheet Supplement, please call us at the Annuity Service Center at (800) 445-7862 or visit our website at www.corebridgefinancial.com/ProductProspectuses. All Rate Sheet Supplements will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and are available on the EDGAR system at www.sec.gov, file number 333-201800.

Sixth, we determine the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount, which represents the maximum amount that may be withdrawn each Benefit Year on or after the Activation Date, while the contract value is greater than zero, without reducing the Income Base. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount is calculated by multiplying the Income Base by the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage. If your contract value is reduced to zero after activating Lifetime Income, but your Income Base is greater than zero, the Protected Income Payment is determined by multiplying the Income Base when contract value is reduced to zero by the applicable Protected Income Payment Percentage.

Finally, we determine the Excess Withdrawals, if any. Excess Withdrawals are withdrawals taken after the Activation Date that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount in any Benefit Year. An Excess Withdrawal reduces your Income Base on the date the Excess Withdrawal occurs. Any Excess Withdrawal reduces the Income Base in the same proportion by which the contract value is reduced by the Excess Withdrawal. Please see “What are the effects of withdrawals on Polaris Income Max?” below.

Please see Appendix D – OPTIONAL LIVING BENEFITS EXAMPLES for detailed numerical examples of how your Living Benefit is calculated.

What are the factors used to calculate Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex?

The Lifetime Income offered by Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex is calculated by considering the factors described below.

First, we determine the Step-up Values which are values used to determine the Income Base. The initial Step-up Value is equal to the contract value. Then, on any day that the contract value is greater than the Income Base on that day, the Income Base is stepped up to that value. The Step-up Value is determined daily prior to the Activation Date.

Second, we determine the Income Base, which initially is equal to the first Purchase Payment. The Income Base is increased by each subsequent Purchase Payment received, and is reduced proportionately for any withdrawals taken prior to the Activation Date and Excess Withdrawals taken on or after the Activation Date.

Third, if you do not activate Lifetime Income before each Benefit Year Anniversary up to the Activation Date, an annual Minimum Income Base Percentage will be applied to Purchase Payments received. Further, any withdrawals taken prior to activating Lifetime Income will proportionately reduce the Purchase Payments used in the calculation of the Minimum Income Base.

Fourth, we determine the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, which represents the maximum percentage of the Income Base that can be withdrawn each Benefit Year on or after the Activation Date and while the contract value is greater than zero, without reducing the Income Base. If your contract value is reduced to zero after the Activation Date but your Income Base is greater than zero, the Protected Income Payment Percentage represents the percentage of the Income Base you will receive each Benefit Year thereafter until the death of the Covered Person(s).

Please see the Rate Sheet Supplement that must accompany this prospectus for the applicable Minimum Income Base Percentage, Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage and Protected Income Payment Percentage. If you need another copy of the prospectus, please call us at the Annuity Service Center at (800) 445-7862 or visit our website at www.corebridgefinancial.com/ProductProspectuses. All Rate Sheet prospectus supplements will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and are available on the EDGAR system at www.sec.gov, file number 333-201800.

Fifth, we determine the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount, which represents the maximum amount that may be withdrawn each Benefit Year on or after the Activation Date, while the contract value is greater than zero, without reducing the Income Base. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount is calculated by multiplying the Income Base by the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage. If your contract value is reduced to zero after activating Lifetime Income, but your Income Base is greater than zero, the Protected Income Payment is determined by multiplying the Income Base when contract value is reduced to zero by the applicable Protected Income Payment Percentage.

Please see Appendix D – OPTIONAL LIVING BENEFITS EXAMPLES for detailed numerical examples of how your Living Benefit is calculated.

How do increases to the Income Base and Income Credit Base work under Polaris Income Max?

On each Benefit Year Anniversary, prior to the Activation Date, the Income Base is automatically increased to the greater of (1) the Higher Anniversary Value; or (2) the current Income Base plus the Income Credit, if any.

On each Benefit Year Anniversary prior to the Activation Date, if the Income Base is increased to a Higher Anniversary Value, the Income Credit Base is also automatically increased to that Higher Anniversary Value. The Income Credit Base is not increased if an Income Credit is added to the Income Base.

Increases to your Income Base occur on Benefit Year Anniversaries while the contract value is greater than zero. However, Purchase Payments increase your Income Base and Income Credit Base at the time they are received. Since Higher Anniversary Values are determined only on the Benefit Year Anniversaries, your Income Base and Income Credit Base will not increase if your contract value is higher on days other than the Benefit Year Anniversaries.

On or After Activation Date, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount is recalculated each time there is an increase in the Income Base. Accordingly, if the sum of withdrawals in any Benefit Year does not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount for that year, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount will not change for the next year unless your Income Base is increased.

How do increases to the Income Base work under Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex?

Prior to the Activation Date, the Income Base is increased daily to the Step-up Value and by subsequent Purchase Payments, if any.

Additionally, prior to the Benefit Year Anniversary, the Income Base will be increased to at least the Minimum Income Base on the Benefit Year Anniversary as a specified percentage of the Purchase Payments.

On or after the Activation Date, the Income Base is increased only on the Benefit Year Anniversary by looking back to the Higher Step-up Value since the Activation Date (“first look-back”) or, if one or more Excess Withdrawals have been taken in that Benefit Year, to the Higher Step-up Value since the last Excess Withdrawal. The Income Base will no longer be increased to the Minimum Income Base on the Benefit Year Anniversary on or after the Activation Date.

After the first look-back, the Income Base is increased only on the Benefit Year Anniversary by looking back to the Higher Step-up Value since the last Benefit Year Anniversary. If one or more Excess Withdrawals have been taken in that Benefit Year, the Income Base is increased on the Benefit Year Anniversary by looking back to the Higher Step-up Value since the last Excess Withdrawal.

What are the effects of withdrawals on Polaris Income Max?

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount, the Income Base and the Income Credit Base may change over time as a result of the timing and amount of any withdrawals.

Prior to the Activation Date

Any withdrawal, including penalty-free withdrawals, in a Benefit Year reduces the Income Base and Income Credit Base on the date the withdrawal occurs and in the same proportion by which the contract value is reduced by the withdrawal. This may result in a lower amount of Lifetime Income when Lifetime Income withdrawals are activated.

Additionally, any withdrawal taken will reduce the Income Credit. The reduction to the Income Credit Base will result in a lowered Income Credit amount being applied to the Income Base prior to the Activation Date. In addition, these withdrawals will not lock-in your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage or Protected Income Payment Percentage, if applicable because your Lifetime Income withdrawals have not been activated.

On or after the Activation Date

Amount in any year will not be recalculated solely as a result of taking less than the entire Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount in the prior year. Please note that if you delay taking withdrawals for too long, you may limit the number of remaining years (due to your life expectancy) in which you may take withdrawals.

Penalty-Free Withdrawal Amount: Your Lifetime Income is free of withdrawal charges. However, if you take a withdrawal after the Activation Date which is greater than your Lifetime Income, that amount is treated as an Excess Withdrawal. Such withdrawal may be subject to charges and could result in your contract value being reduced to zero which would significantly reduce or eliminate the value of electing a Living Benefit.

For example, if you elected a Living Benefit and your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (MAWA) on or after the Activation Date is $6,000 (assuming Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage of 6%, $100,000 Income Base and $100,000 Contract Value), your penalty-free withdrawal amount would be $10,000. That means that the $6,000 MAWA for that contract year would not be assessed a withdrawal charge because it is within the penalty-free withdrawal amount and was taken on or after the Activation Date. You may also take up to an additional $4,000 that contract year on or after the Activation Date as a penalty-free withdrawal amount; however, this $4,000 would be considered an Excess Withdrawal under the Living Benefit which proportionally reduces the Income Base and future Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amounts. In the event you take Excess Withdrawals on or after the Activation Date that are greater than your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount, your contract value could be reduced to zero.

Excess Withdrawals may significantly reduce the value of or terminate the Living Benefit.

For example, assume that your contract value is $106,000, your Income Base is $120,000, your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount is $6,000, and your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage is 5%. Withdrawals greater than $6,000 would be an Excess Withdrawal. You request a withdrawal of $11,000, of which $5,000 is in excess of your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount. Your Income Base will be reduced proportionately to $114,000 as follows: $120,000 x {1 – [($11,000 - $6,000)/ ($106,000 - $6,000)]} = $114,000. The new Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount will now be 5% of the Income Base: 5% x $114,000 which is $5,700.

by the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage. The last recalculated Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount in a given Benefit Year is available for withdrawal at the beginning of the next Benefit Year and may be lower than the previous Benefit Year’s Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount.

When the contract value is less than the Income Base, Excess Withdrawals will reduce the Income Base by an amount which is greater than the amount of the Excess Withdrawal. The impact of withdrawals on specific factors is further explained below:

Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount: If the sum of withdrawals in any Benefit Year does not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount for that year, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount will not change for the next year unless your Income Base is increased. If you take an Excess Withdrawal, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount will be recalculated by multiplying the reduced Income Base by the existing Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage. This recalculated Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount is available for withdrawal at the beginning of the next Benefit Year and may be lower than your previous Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount.

Protected Income Payment: If the Income Base is greater than zero, but the contract value has been reduced to zero due to unfavorable investment performance, deduction of fees, or withdrawals within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount, we will pay any remaining Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount for the current Benefit Year. Thereafter, you will receive the Protected Income Payment each year over the remaining lifetime of the Covered Person(s) which is calculated by multiplying the Income Base when contract value is reduced to zero by the applicable Protected Income Payment Percentage. The Income Base is no longer increased on Benefit Year Anniversaries after the contract value has been reduced to zero. As a result, the Protected Income Payment is calculated once and will not change. Please see “What happens if the contract value is reduced to zero while the Income Base is greater than zero?” below.

All withdrawals from the contract, including Lifetime Income withdrawals, will reduce your contract value and your death benefit and may impact other provisions of your contract. Unfavorable investment experience and/or fees will also reduce your contract value. Lifetime Income withdrawals are deducted proportionately from each Variable Portfolio and Secure Value Account in which you are invested. Please see ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY above and EXPENSES below.

What are the effects of withdrawals on Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex?

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount, the Income Base and the Purchase Payment(s) used in the calculation

of the Minimum Income Base may change over time as a result of the timing and amount of any withdrawals.

Prior to the Activation Date

Any withdrawal, including penalty-free withdrawals, in a Benefit Year reduces the Income Base on the date the withdrawal occurs and in the same proportion by which the contract value is reduced by the withdrawal. This may result in a lower amount of Lifetime Income when Lifetime Income withdrawals are activated.

On or after the Activation Date

Lifetime Income withdrawals during a Benefit Year that in total are less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount will not reduce the Income Base. However, if you choose to take less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount in any Benefit Year, you may not carry over the unused amount for withdrawal in subsequent years. Your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount in any year will not be recalculated solely as a result of taking less than the entire Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount in the prior year. Please note that if you delay taking withdrawals for too long, you may limit the number of remaining years (due to your life expectancy) in which you may take withdrawals.

Excess Withdrawals may significantly reduce the value of or terminate the Living Benefit.

Excess Withdrawals reduce your Income Base on the date the Excess Withdrawal occurs. Any Excess Withdrawal in a Benefit Year reduces the Income Base in the same proportion by which the contract value is reduced by the amount in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (“Excess Withdrawal”). As a result of a reduction of the Income Base, the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount will be equal to the reduced Income Base multiplied by the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage. The last recalculated Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount in a given Benefit Year is available for withdrawal at the beginning of the next Benefit Year and may be lower than the previous Benefit Year’s Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount.

is calculated by multiplying the Income Base when contract value is reduced to zero by the applicable Protected Income Payment Percentage. The Income Base is no longer increased on Benefit Year Anniversaries after the contract value has been reduced to zero. As a result, the Protected Income Payment is calculated once and will not change. Please see “What happens if the contract value is reduced to zero while the Income Base is greater than zero?” below.

Minimum Income Base: If you activate Lifetime Income, the Minimum Income Base will no longer increase on future Benefit Anniversaries.

Look-back Periods: If you take one or more Excess Withdrawals in a Benefit Year, the Income Base may be increased on the Benefit Year Anniversary by looking back only to the Higher Step-up Value since the last Excess Withdrawal. This means that if you take an Excess Withdrawal, you lose the opportunity to lock in a potentially higher Step-up Value that may have occurred prior to that Excess Withdrawal during that Benefit Year.

How can I change my Income Option Election?

You may change your Income Option election on the Activation Date. If you change your Income Option election on the Activation Date, an annualized fee applies. Once Lifetime Income begins, you may not change your Income Option election.

What is the fee for Polaris Income Max and Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex?

The fee for Polaris Income Max and Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex is calculated as a percentage of the Income Base and deducted from the contract value on a quarterly basis beginning on the first Benefit Quarter Anniversary following the Benefit Effective Date. Please see APPENDIX B - STATE CONTRACT AVAILABILITY AND/OR VARIABILITY for state specific information regarding the assessment of the fee. After the first Benefit Year, on each Benefit Quarter Anniversary, we will (1) deduct the fee in effect for the previous Benefit Quarter; and (2) determine the fee rate applicable to the next Benefit Quarter. In addition, if you change your Income Option on

the Activation Date, your annual fee will increase on the next Benefit Quarter Anniversary. Please see fee table below:

Polaris Income Max Fee
Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex Fee

Number of Covered Persons	Maximum Annual Fee Rate	Minimum Annual Fee Rate	Maximum Annualized Fee Rate Decrease or Increase Each Benefit Quarter*
One Covered Person	2.50%	0.60%	±0.40%
Two Covered Persons	2.50%	0.60%	±0.40%

The quarterly fee rate can increase or decrease no more than 0.10% each quarter (0.40%/ 4). If you change your Income Option election on the Activation Date, the quarterly fee rate can increase no more than 0.1625% [(0.40% + 0.25%)/ 4] for the first Benefit Quarter immediately following the Activation Date.

Please see the Rate Sheet Supplement that must accompany this prospectus for the applicable initial annual fee rate.

If you change your Income Option election on the Activation Date, an annualized fee applies. The fee is calculated as a percentage of the Income Base and deducted from the contract value on a quarterly basis beginning on the first Benefit Quarter Anniversary following the Activation Date:

Lifetime Income Option Change Fee*

0.25%

The fee is deducted quarterly, and the quarterly fee rate is 0.0625% (0.25%/4). The sum of the Living Benefit feature fee rate and Lifetime Income Option Change fee rate cannot exceed the Maximum Annual Fee Rate stated in the table above.

The initial annual fee rate is guaranteed not to change for the first Benefit Year. Subsequently, the fee rate may change quarterly subject to the parameters identified in the table above. Any fee adjustment is based on a non-discretionary formula tied to the change in the Volatility Index (“VIX®”), an index of market volatility reported by the Chicago Board Options Exchange. In general, as the average value of the VIX decreases or increases, your fee rate will decrease or increase accordingly, subject to the minimums and maximums identified in the table above.

Should the VIX no longer be appropriate or available, we would substitute the VIX with another measure of market volatility for determining the fee. If we substitute the VIX, we will notify you; however, the maximum and minimum annual fee rates described in this prospectus are guaranteed for the life of your contract. Please see APPENDIX C — FORMULA AND EXAMPLES OF CALCULATIONS OF THE POLARIS INCOME MAX AND POLARIS INCOME PLUS DAILY FLEX FEE.

you pay since the fee rate is assessed against the Income Base, assuming that the annual fee rate has not decreased as described above. Please note that this means the addition of an Income Credit prior to the Activation Date will lead to paying a higher fee in any given period than without the addition of the Income Credit because the Income Credit may increase the Income Base. You will be assessed a non-refundable fee each quarter regardless of whether you activate Lifetime Income.

For Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex, an increase in the Income Base due to attaining a new Step-up Value or an addition of subsequent Purchase Payment(s) will result in an increase to the amount of the fee you pay since the fee rate is assessed against the Income Base, assuming that the annual fee rate has not decreased as described above.

If your contract value falls to zero, the fee will no longer be deducted. We will not assess the quarterly fee if you annuitize your contract or if a death benefit is paid before the end of a Benefit Quarter. If the Living Benefit is still in effect while your contract value is greater than zero, and you surrender your contract, we will assess a pro-rata charge for the fee applicable to the Benefit Quarter in which the surrender occurs if you surrender your contract before the end of a Benefit Quarter. The pro-rata fee is calculated by multiplying the fee by the number of days between the date when the prior fee was last assessed and the date of surrender, divided by the number of days between the prior and the next Benefit Quarter Anniversaries.

What happens if the contract value is reduced to zero while the Income Base is greater than zero?

Prior to the Activation Date,
If the contract value is reduced to zero as a result of any withdrawal, but the Income Base is greater than zero, the contract will be terminated including any optional benefits and features.

On or after the Activation Date,
If the contract value is reduced to zero, but the Income Base is greater than zero, we will pay the remaining Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount for that Benefit Year. Thereafter we will pay the Protected Income Payment over the remaining lifetime of the Covered Person(s).

If an Excess Withdrawal reduces your contract value to zero, no further benefits are payable under the contract and your contract along with the Living Benefit will terminate.

If your contract value is reduced to zero, you may no longer make transfers, and no death benefit is payable. Therefore, you should be aware that, particularly during times of unfavorable investment performance, Excess Withdrawals taken under the Living Benefit may reduce the contract value to zero, thereby terminating any other benefits of the contract.

When the contract value equals zero but the Income Base is greater than zero, to receive any remaining Living Benefit, you must select one of the following:

The Protected Income Payment divided equally and paid on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual frequency as selected by you until the date of death of the Covered Person(s); or

Any option mutually agreeable between you and us.

Once you elect an option above, it cannot be changed. If you do not select an option above, the remaining benefit will be paid as option 1 above. This amount will be divided equally and paid on a quarterly basis until the date of death of the Covered Person(s). No amount is payable thereafter.

Please refer to the Rate Sheet Supplement for the Initial Annual Fee Rate, Minimum Income Base Percentage, Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages, Protected Income Payment Percentages, and Income Credit Percentage applicable to your Living Benefit.

Additional important information
applicable to all optional living benefits

When and how may I elect a Living Benefit?

A Living Benefit must be elected at the time of contract issue (the “Benefit Effective Date”). You may elect to have the Living Benefit cover only your life or the lives of both you and your spouse, the “Covered Person(s).” If the contract is not owned by a natural person, references to Owner(s) apply to the Annuitant(s). To elect the Living Benefit, Covered Person(s) must meet the minimum and maximum age requirements. The age requirements vary depending on the type of contract and the number of Covered Persons. The age requirements for optional death benefits and other optional features may be different than those listed here. You must meet the age requirements for those features in order to elect them.

Polaris Income Max:

Number of Owners	Covered Person
Number of Owners	Minimum Age(1)	Maximum Age(2)
One Owner	50	80
Joint Owners(3)	50	80

(1)

Minimum Age must be met by any Covered Person(s) as of the Contract Issue Date.

(2)

Maximum Age cannot be exceeded by any Covered Person(s) as of the date added.

(3)

Joint Owners may choose which of the two Owners will be the Covered Person. The Beneficiary’s age is not considered in determining the maximum issue age of the second Covered Person.

Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex:

Number of Owners	Covered Person
Number of Owners	Minimum Age(1)	Maximum Age(2)
One Owner	45	80
Joint Owners(3)	45	80

(2)

Maximum Age cannot be exceeded by any Covered Person(s) as of the date added.

(3)

Joint Owners may choose which of the two Owners will be the Covered Person. The Beneficiary’s age is not considered in determining the maximum issue age of the second Covered Person.

What are the allowable changes to Covered Person(s) prior to the Activation Date?

You may make changes to your Covered Person(s) prior to the Activation Date for specific Life Change Events as defined below by submitting the appropriate Covered Person(s) Change form. Note: Any Covered Person being added must meet the above minimum and maximum age requirements.

•

Marriage – If there is one Covered Person, you may add your spouse as the second Covered Person;

•

Divorce – If there are two Covered Persons, you may remove one of the Covered Persons as a result of divorce;

•

Death – Upon the death of one of the Covered Persons, you may remove the deceased Covered Person.

What are the allowable changes to Covered Person(s) on the Activation Date?

Number of Owners and Covered Persons	Allowed Changes to Covered Person(s) on the Activation Date
Single Owned Contract & One Covered Person	Add Spouse as the second Covered Person
Single Owned Contract & Two Covered Persons(1)	Remove or Change the second Covered Person who is not the Single Owner
Jointly Owned Contract & One Covered Person	Add Joint Owner as the second Covered Person
Jointly Owned Contract & Two Covered Persons(1)	Remove or Change either Covered Person

(1)

You must keep at least one of the original Covered Person(s) if requesting to remove or change either Covered Person. Note: If a second Covered Person or if one of the original Covered Person(s) is changed, Covered Person(s) must meet the above minimum and maximum age requirements.

Your Lifetime Income will change as a result of removing or adding a Covered Person(s).

If I own a Qualified contract, how do Required Minimum Distributions impact my Living Benefit?

Prior to the Activation Date, Required Minimum Distributions (“RMD”) will proportionately reduce the Income Base, Income Credit Base, if applicable, and the Purchase Payments used to calculate the Minimum Income Base, if applicable.

On or after the Activation Date, as the original Owner, or Continuing Spouse (two Covered Persons elected) electing to treat the annuity contract as their own, if you are taking required minimum distributions (“RMD”) from this contract, and the amount of the RMD (based only on the contract to which the feature is elected and using the Uniform Lifetime Table or Joint Life Expectancy Table from the regulations under the Internal Revenue Code) is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount in any given Benefit Year, no portion of the RMD will be treated as an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “What are the effects of withdrawals on Polaris Income Max?”and“What are the effects of withdrawals on Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex?”above.

Any withdrawal taken before you activate Lifetime Income (including RMDs) will result in a reduction of the amount of future withdrawals of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (MAWA).

We will provide RMD favorable treatment, in each Benefit Year, to the greater of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount or the RMD amount. Any portion of a withdrawal in a Benefit Year which exceeds the greater of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount or RMD amount will be considered an Excess Withdrawal. If you must take RMD from this contract and want to ensure that these withdrawals are not considered Excess Withdrawals, your total distribution(s) during the current contract year must not exceed the greater of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount or the RMD amount as calculated by our Annuity Service Center. Therefore, if you plan to take an Excess Withdrawal, then this feature may not be appropriate for you.

The age at which you must begin taking RMDs is 73 (if you were born January 1, 1951 or later), 72 (if you were born on or after July 1, 1949, and before January 1, 1951), or 70 ½ (if you were born before July 1, 1949).

If you are transferring from another company and have already reached the age you must begin taking RMDs, you should take the current tax year’s RMD prior to the transfer, as we cannot systematically calculate the RMD as we do not possess the valuation for the previous year end. Further, if you are turning the age you must begin taking RMDs, you should know that although tax code allows for deferral of the first withdrawal to April of the tax year following your attainment of the age you must begin taking RMDs, doing so may result in subsequent withdrawals being treated as Excess Withdrawals for that Benefit Year.

What happens to my Living Benefit upon a spousal continuation if I elected one Covered Person and if the contract value is greater than zero?

Prior to the Activation Date, if the single Covered Person dies, the surviving Spousal Joint Owner or Spousal Beneficiary may elect to:

Make a death claim, which terminates the Living Benefit and the contract; or

Continue the contract and the Living Benefit as a new single Covered Person. The Continuing Spouse will receive the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount upon Lifetime Income Activation and the Protected Income Payment after the contract value goes to zero. The Continuing Spouse cannot add a new Covered Person. Upon the death of the Continuing Spouse, the Beneficiary must make a death claim, which terminates the Living Benefit and the contract.

If an Owner that is not the single Covered Person dies, the surviving Spousal Joint Owner who is the Covered Person may elect to:

Make a death claim, which terminates the Living Benefit and the contract; or

Continue the contract and the Living Benefit as the current single Covered Person. The Continuing Spouse will receive the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount upon Lifetime Income Activation and the Protected Income Payment after the contract value goes to zero. The Continuing Spouse cannot add a new Covered Person. Upon the death of the Continuing Spouse, the Beneficiary must make a death claim, which terminates the Living Benefit and the contract.

On or after the Activation Date, if the single Covered Person dies, the surviving Spousal Joint Owner or Spousal Beneficiary may elect to:

Make a death claim, which terminates the Living Benefit and the contract; or

Continue the contract, without the Living Benefit.

If an Owner that is not the single Covered Person dies, the surviving Spousal Joint Owner who is the Covered Person may elect to:

Make a death claim, which terminates the Living Benefit and the contract; or

Continue the contract with the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount and Protected Income Payment.

Note: At any time, if, the contract value goes to zero due to a withdrawal, the Spousal Beneficiary cannot continue the contract.

What happens to my Living Benefit upon a spousal continuation if I elected two Covered Persons and if the contract value is greater than zero?

Prior to the Activation Date, upon death of the first of the two Covered Persons, the surviving Covered Person (Spousal Joint Owner or Spousal Beneficiary) may elect to:

Make a death claim, which terminates the Living Benefit and the contract; or

Continue the contract as a single Covered Person. The Continuing Spouse will receive the Maximum

Annual Withdrawal Amount upon Lifetime Income Activation and the Protected Income Payment after the contract value goes to zero. The Continuing Spouse cannot add a new Covered Person. Upon the death of the Continuing Spouse, the Beneficiary must make a death claim, which terminates the Living Benefit and the contract.

Note: Prior to the Activation Date, if the contract value goes to zero due to a withdrawal, the Living Benefit and the contract terminate, and the Spousal Beneficiary cannot continue the contract.

On or after the Activation Date, upon the first of the two Covered Person’s death, the surviving Covered Person (Spousal Joint Owner or Spousal Beneficiary) may elect to:

Make a death claim, which terminates the Living Benefit and the contract; or

Continue the contract, with the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount and Protected Income Payment.

Note: On or after the Activation Date, if the contract value goes to zero due to: a) a withdrawal taken within the parameters of the Living Benefit, the Spousal Beneficiary can continue the Living Benefit as the surviving Covered Person with the current Protected Income Payment for their lifetime or b) an Excess Withdrawal, the Living Benefit and contract will terminate, and the Spousal Beneficiary cannot continue the contract.

The components of the Living Benefit in effect at the time of Spousal Continuation will not change. The surviving Covered Person can elect to receive withdrawals in accordance with the provisions of the Living Benefit elected based on the age of the younger Covered Person on the Activation Date. If Lifetime Income was not activated prior to the Spousal Continuation, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage and the Protected Income Payment Percentage will be based on the age of the surviving Covered Person on the Activation Date. Please see “How does Polaris Income Max work?” and “How does Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex work?” above.

For Polaris Income Max only

For Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex only

If Spousal Continuation occurs, the Continuing Spouse will continue to receive any increase to the Income Base for Step-up Values and the Continuing Spouse will also be eligible to receive the Minimum Income Base on Benefit Year Anniversaries prior to the Activation Date. On or after the Activation Date, the Continuing Spouse is no longer eligible for any further adjustments to the Minimum Income Base.

Can a non-spousal Beneficiary elect to receive any remaining benefits under my Living Benefit upon the death of the second spouse?

No. Upon the death of the Covered Person(s), if the contract value is greater than zero, a non-spousal Beneficiary must make an election under the death benefit provisions of the contract, which terminates the Living Benefit. Please see DEATH BENEFITS below.

What happens to my Living Benefit upon the Latest Annuity Date?

On the Latest Annuity Date, if the contract value is greater than zero, You must select one of the following options:

Annuitize by selecting from choices a. or b. below:

elect to begin one of the Annuity Income Payment Options set forth in Your Contract. If you choose this option, We will apply the contract value to provide annuity income payments under the contract’s annuity provisions as described under ANNUITY INCOME OPTIONS; or

elect to receive Lifetime Income under Your Living Benefit option by means of an Annuitization while any of the last named Covered Person(s) is living. If You have already activated Lifetime Income under the Living Benefit, You will continue to receive Lifetime Income by means of an Annuitization as described below. If you have not yet activated Lifetime Income, you may activate Lifetime Income by means of an Annuitization as described under ANNUITY INCOME OPTIONS; or

Fully surrender your Contract

Note: Under 1b) upon annuitization you will receive the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount for a fixed period while you are alive. The fixed period is determined by dividing the contract value as of the Latest Annuity Date by the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount. After that fixed period ends, you will receive the Protected Income Payment, which is calculated by multiplying the Income Base as of the Latest Annuity Date by then applicable Protected Income Payment Percentage, paid until the death(s) of all Covered Person(s). The amount of each such payment will equal the Protected Income Payment amount divided according to the payment frequency you selected.

payments, which would equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount as long as the contract value is greater than zero, or the Protected Income Payment if the contract value goes to zero, in accordance with option 1b) above, divided equally and paid on a monthly frequency until the death(s) of all of the last named Covered Person(s).

Can I elect to cancel my Living Benefit?

The Living Benefit may not be cancelled by you prior to the 5th Benefit Year Anniversary unless you surrender your contract. The Living Benefit may be cancelled by you on or after the 5th Benefit Year Anniversary and the cancellation will be effective as outlined in the table below.

Cancellation Request Received	Cancellation Effective Date
Years 1-5	5th Benefit Year Anniversary
Years 5+	Benefit Quarter Anniversary following the receipt of the cancellation request

Once cancellation is effective, the guarantees under the Living Benefits are terminated. In addition, the investment requirements for the Living Benefits will no longer apply to your contract. You may not re-elect or reinstate the Living Benefit after cancellation.

If there are two Covered Persons, upon the death of the first Covered Person, the surviving Covered Person (generally, the Continuing Spouse) may cancel the Living Benefit on or after the 5th Benefit Year Anniversary and the cancellation will be effective as outlined in the table above. Upon the cancellation effective date of the Living Benefit, there will be one final fee applicable to the Benefit Quarter in which the cancellation occurs, on the same Benefit Quarter Anniversary. Thereafter, the fee will no longer be charged.

What happens to the Secure Value Account and Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program instructions if I elect to cancel Polaris Income Max or Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex?

Amounts allocated to the Secure Value Account will be automatically transferred to the 1-Year Fixed Account, if available. If the 1-Year Fixed Account is not available in the state in which your contract was issued, amounts will be transferred to a money market or similar portfolio. From the day following the automated transfer from the Secure Value Account, you may transfer this amount to another available investment option under the contract for a period of 90 days during which the transfer will not count against the annual number of free transfers or U.S. Mail transfers, or incur a transfer fee. You may move your funds out of the 1-Year Fixed Account or a money market or similar portfolio, as applicable, at any time.

instructions on file and that transfer will not result in new Default Rebalancing Instructions. On or after cancellation of these features, you may provide new rebalancing instructions or you may choose to terminate the Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program by contacting the Annuity Service Center. Please see APPENDIX B – STATE CONTRACT AVAILABILITY AND/OR VARIABILITY for state specific information regarding amounts allocated to the Secure Value Account and Automatic Asset Allocation Rebalancing Program upon cancellation of any Living Benefit.

Are there circumstances under which my Living Benefit will be automatically cancelled?

The Living Benefit and Lifetime Income will automatically be cancelled upon the occurrence of one of the following:

(i)

Annuitization of the contract; or

(ii)

Termination or surrender of the contract; or

(iii)

A death benefit is paid resulting in the contract being terminated; or

(iv)

Any withdrawal prior to the Activation Date that reduces the Contract Value to zero; or

(v)

On or after the Activation Date, any Excess Withdrawal that reduces the contract value and Income Base to zero; or

(vi)

Death of the Covered Person, if only one is elected after Lifetime Income has been activated; or, if two Covered Persons are elected, death of the surviving Covered Person; or

(vii)

A change that removes all of the original Covered Persons from the contract; or

(viii)A Change of the Owner or Assignment; or

(ix)

You elect to cancel Your Living Benefit.

If a change of ownership occurs from a natural person to a non-natural entity, the original natural Owner(s) must also be the Annuitant(s) after the ownership change to prevent termination of the Living Benefit. A change of ownership from a non-natural entity to a natural person can only occur if the new natural Owner(s) was the original natural Annuitant(s) in order to prevent termination of the Living Benefit. Any ownership change is contingent upon prior review and approval by the Company.

Any amounts that we may pay under the feature in excess of your contract value are subject to the Company’s financial strength and claims-paying ability.

Death Benefits

You must elect one of the death benefit options at the time you purchase your contract. Some options are available for an additional fee, as described later in this section. Once elected, you cannot change your death benefit option. You

should discuss the available options with your financial representative to determine which option is best for you.

Certain death benefit options are either no longer offered or have changed since first being offered. If your contract was issued between May 1, 2017 and September 8, 2019 please see APPENDIX I – DEATH BENEFITS FOLLOWING SPOUSAL CONTINUATION BETWEEN MAY 1, 2017 AND SEPTEMBER 8, 2019 for details regarding those death benefit options. If your contract was issued prior to May 1, 2017, please see APPENDIX F – DEATH BENEFITS AND SPOUSAL CONTINUATION DEATH BENEFITS FOR CONTRACTS ISSUED PRIOR TO May 1, 2017 for details regarding those death benefit options.

We do not pay a death benefit if:

•

your contract value is reduced to zero; or

•

you die after you begin the Income Phase. Your Beneficiary would receive any remaining guaranteed annuity income payments in accordance with the annuity income option you selected. Please see ANNUITY INCOME OPTIONS.

We pay a death benefit to your Beneficiary(ies) if you die during the Accumulation Phase. The death benefit will become payable upon death of the following individual.

Owner	Payable Upon Death of
Natural persons	Owner (or first to die, if jointly owned)
Non-natural person (e.g. Trust)	Annuitant

Beneficiary Designation

You must notify us in writing of the Beneficiary(ies) who will receive any death benefit payments under your contract. You may change the Beneficiary at any time, unless otherwise specified below.

•

If your contract is jointly owned, the surviving joint Owner must be the sole primary Beneficiary. Any other individual you designate as Beneficiary will be the contingent Beneficiary.

•

If the Owner is a non-natural person then joint Annuitants, if any, shall be each other’s sole primary Beneficiary, except when the Owner is a charitable remainder trust.

•

If the Owner is a trust, whether as an agent for a natural person or otherwise, you should consult with your tax and/or legal adviser to determine whether this contract is an appropriate trust investment.

Death Benefit Processing

We process death benefit requests when we receive all required documentation, including satisfactory proof of death, in Good Order, at the Annuity Service Center.

Satisfactory proof of death includes, but may not be

limited to:

(1)A certified copy of the death certificate; or

(2)A certified copy of a decree of a court of

competent jurisdiction as to the finding of death;

(3)A written statement by a medical doctor who

attended the deceased at the time of death.

When Death Benefits are Calculated

•

All death benefit calculations are made as of the day required documentation is received in Good Order at the Annuity Service Center before Market Close. If the death benefit request is received after Market Close, the death benefit calculation will be made as of the next NYSE business day.

The contract value will remain invested pursuant to the Owner's latest allocation instructions on file subject to the limitations described in this prospectus, until we receive notification of death and/or death claim paperwork in Good Order. Thereafter, a beneficiary may elect one of the death settlement options by contacting the Annuity Service Center.

If we receive notification of the Owner’s death before any previously requested transaction is completed (including systematic transfer and withdrawal programs), we will cancel the previously requested transaction.

For contracts in which the aggregate of all Purchase Payments in contracts issued by any Corebridge Financial company to the same Owner/Annuitant are in excess of the Purchase Payments Limit, we reserve the right to limit the death benefit amount that is in excess of contract value at the time we receive all paperwork and satisfactory proof of death. Any limit on the maximum death benefit payable would be mutually agreed upon in writing by you and the Company prior to purchasing the contract.

Death Benefit Settlement Options

Your Beneficiary must elect one of the following settlement options after providing required documentation, including satisfactory proof of death, in Good Order.

•

Lump sum payment; or

•

Annuity Income Option; or

•

Continue the contract as the spousal Beneficiary, or under a Beneficiary continuation option; or

•

Payment option that is mutually agreeable between you and us

In general, the death benefit must be paid within 5 years of the date of death unless the Beneficiary elects to have it payable in the form of an annuity income option. If the Beneficiary elects an annuity income option, it must be paid over the Beneficiary’s life expectancy or a shorter period. Payments associated with such election must begin within one year of death. Federal tax law may limit the

Beneficiary’s death benefit and payout options available after your death. Please see ANNUITY INCOME OPTIONS.

Beneficiary Continuation Programs

Please consult a tax adviser regarding tax implications about your particular circumstances if you are considering a Beneficiary Continuation option.

Extended Legacy Program

The Beneficiary to an existing contract issued by the Company may elect the Extended Legacy Program. The program may not be elected in conjunction with any other settlement option.

Upon election of the Extended Legacy Program:

•

The contract continues in Owner’s name for the benefit of the Beneficiary who elected the Extended Legacy Program.

•

The Beneficiary may withdraw all or a portion of the contract value at any time and withdrawals are not subject to withdrawal charges.

•

The Beneficiary may choose to participate in the Systematic Withdrawal Program and the Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program.

Upon election of the Extended Legacy Program, the beneficiary may choose to receive the death benefit under (1) a 5-year settlement option or (2) in the form of withdrawals for a longer period of time:

Under the 5-year settlement option, the Beneficiary may take withdrawals as desired, but the death benefit proceeds must be distributed no later than five years from the date of death of the Owner of the contract.

Note: If an IRA Owner died prior to January 1, 2020, the 5-year settlement option is not available if the date of the Owner's death occurred after the required beginning date for distributions.

If the beneficiary elects to take the death benefit in the form of withdrawals over a longer period of time:

•

Generally, IRS required minimum distributions must be made at least annually over a period not to exceed the Beneficiary’s life expectancy as determined in the calendar year after the Owner’s death, with the flexibility to withdraw more than the IRS required minimum distribution.

•

Payments must begin no later than the first anniversary of death for Non-Qualified contracts or December 31 of the year following the year of death for IRAs.

Note: for IRAs, if the Owner’s death occurred on or after January 1, 2020, choosing to receive the death benefit in the form of withdrawals for a longer period of time is only available for a Spousal Beneficiary or a Non-Spousal Beneficiary who is less than 10 years younger than the IRA

Owner. Other Non-Spousal Beneficiaries may instead elect the 5-year settlement option, if available.

If the contract value is less than the death benefit amount as of the date we receive satisfactory proof of death and all required documentation in Good Order, we will increase the contract value by the amount which the death benefit exceed contract value.

We will process an Extended Legacy election as of the

date we receive the following in Good Order at the Annuity

Service Center:

•Death Claim form electing Extended Legacy

Program; and

•Satisfactory proof of death of the original Owner.

Upon the Beneficiary’s request to our Annuity Service Center, we will provide a prospectus and Extended Legacy Guide, with important information including expenses, investment options and administrative features. The prospectus that the Beneficiary will receive may be for a different product than the original Owner purchased.

The Extended Legacy Guide includes important information regarding the program offered to Beneficiaries on or after September 20, 2020.

Inherited Account Program

The Inherited Account Program, if available, can allow a Beneficiary of another company’s annuity contract to transfer their inherited Non-Qualified deferred annuity or certain Beneficiaries to transfer their inherited IRA to fund a new contract issued by the Company.

•

The Beneficiary of the transferred contract becomes the Owner (as the Beneficiary of the deceased) of the contract issued by us.

The Internal Revenue Code requires minimum distributions from inherited IRAs and inherited Non-Qualified deferred annuity contracts.

•

Once the contract is issued, a Systematic Withdrawal Program must be established and cannot be terminated.

Death Benefit Defined Terms

The term “Net Purchase Payment” is used frequently in describing the death benefit payable. Net Purchase Payment is an on-going calculation. It does not represent a contract value.

We determine Net Purchase Payments as Purchase Payments less adjustments for withdrawals. Net Purchase Payments are increased by the amount of subsequent Purchase Payments, if any, and reduced for withdrawals, if any, in the same proportion that the contract value was reduced on the date of such withdrawal.

The term “Withdrawal Adjustment” is used, if you have elected a Living Benefit, to describe the way in which the amount of the death benefit will be adjusted for withdrawals depending on when you take a withdrawal and the amount of the withdrawal.

Prior to the Activation Date: Any withdrawal taken reduces the death benefit proportionately by the percentage by which each withdrawal reduced the contract value.

On or after the Activation Date: Any withdrawal taken reduces the death benefit as follows:

Withdrawal taken:	Withdrawal Amount
	Up to MAWA	In Excess of MAWA
Before your 81st birthday	By the dollar amount which equals each withdrawal taken	Proportionately by the percentage by which Excess Withdrawal reduced the contract value
On or after your 81st birthday	Proportionately by the percentage that withdrawals reduced the contract value

•

If cumulative Lifetime Income withdrawals for the current contract year are taken prior to your 81st birthday and are less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount, the amount of adjustment will equal the amount of each Lifetime Income withdrawal.

•

If cumulative Lifetime Income withdrawals for the current contract year are taken prior to your 81st birthday and are in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount, the contract value and the death benefit are first reduced by the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount. The resulting death benefit is further adjusted by the withdrawal amount in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (Excess Withdrawal) by the percentage by which the Excess Withdrawal reduced the resulting contract value.

•

Any Lifetime Income withdrawal taken on or after your 81st birthday, the amount of adjustment is determined by the percentage by which each Lifetime Income withdrawal reduced the contract value.

The term “withdrawals” as used in describing the death benefit options is defined as withdrawals and the fees and charges applicable to those withdrawals.

The Company does not accept Purchase Payments from anyone age 86 or older. Therefore, the death benefit calculations assume that no Purchase Payments are received on or after your 86th birthday.

Death Benefit Options

Contract Value Death Benefit

The Contract Value death benefit is equal to the contract value on the business day during which we receive all required documentation.

The following Return of Purchase Payment death benefit and the Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit are calculated differently depending on whether you have also elected one of the Living Benefits described above.

Return of Purchase Payment Death Benefit

For an additional fee, you may elect the Return of Purchase Payment death benefit described below which can provide greater protection for your beneficiaries. You may only elect the Return of Purchase Payment death benefit at the time you purchase your contract and you cannot change your election thereafter at any time. The annualized fee for the Return of Purchase Payment death benefit is 0.15% of the average daily net asset value allocated to the Variable Portfolios. You may pay for the optional death benefit and your Beneficiary may never receive the benefit once you begin the Income Phase. The Return of Purchase Payment death benefit can only be elected prior to your 86th birthday.

The following describes the Return of Purchase Payment death benefit without election of a Living Benefit:

The death benefit is the greater of:

Contract value; or

Net Purchase Payments.

The following describes the Return of Purchase Payment death benefit with election of a Living Benefit:

The death benefit is the greater of:

Contract value; or

Purchase Payments reduced by:

any Withdrawal Adjustments, as defined above, if the Living Benefit has not been terminated; or

any Withdrawal Adjustments, as defined above, prior to the date the Living Benefit is

terminated; and reduced for any withdrawals in the same proportion that the withdrawal reduced the contract value on the date of such withdrawal on or after the date the Living Benefit is terminated.

Please see APPENDIX H – DEATH BENEFITS EXAMPLES for examples of how your death benefit is calculated.

Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit

For an additional fee, you may elect the Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit described below which can provide greater protection for your Beneficiaries. You may only elect the Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit at the time you purchase your contract and you cannot change your election thereafter at any time. The fee for the Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit is 0.40% of the average daily net asset value allocated to the Variable Portfolios. You may pay for the optional death benefit and your Beneficiary may never receive the benefit once you begin the Income Phase. The Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit can only be elected prior to your 81st birthday.

The following describes the Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit without election of a Living Benefit:

The death benefit is the greatest of:

Contract value; or

Net Purchase Payments; or

Maximum anniversary value on any contract anniversary prior to the earlier of your 83rd birthday or date of death, plus Purchase Payments received since that anniversary; and reduced for any withdrawals since that anniversary in the same proportion that the withdrawal reduced the contract value on the date of such withdrawal. The anniversary value for any year is equal to the contract value on the applicable contract anniversary.

The following describes the Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit with election of a Living Benefit:

The death benefit is the greatest of:

Contract value; or

Purchase Payments reduced by:

any Withdrawal Adjustments, if the Living Benefit has not been terminated; or

any Withdrawal Adjustments, prior to the date the Living Benefit is terminated; and reduced for any withdrawals in the same proportion that the withdrawal reduced the contract value on the date of such withdrawal on or after the date the Living Benefit is terminated; or

Maximum anniversary value on any contract anniversary prior to the earlier of your 83rd birthday or date of death and reduced by:

any Withdrawal Adjustments since that contract anniversary, if the Living Benefit has not been terminated; or

any Withdrawal Adjustments since that contract anniversary, prior to the date the Living Benefit is terminated; and reduced for any withdrawals in the same proportion that the withdrawal reduced the contract value on the date of such withdrawal on or after the date the Living Benefit is terminated.

The anniversary value for any year is equal to the contract value on the applicable anniversary.

Please see APPENDIX H – DEATH BENEFITS EXAMPLES for examples of how your death benefit is calculated.

Spousal Continuation

The Continuing Spouse may elect to continue the contract after your death. A spousal continuation can only take place once, upon the death of the original Owner of the contract.

Upon election of Spousal Continuation:

•

Generally, the contract, its benefits and elected features, if any, remain the same.

•

Continuing Spouse is subject to the same fees, charges and expenses applicable to the original Owner of the contract. Please see EXPENSES.

•

Continuing Spouse may not terminate the Return of Purchase Payment or the Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit if elected at contract issue.

•

Continuing Spouse will be subject to the investment risk of Variable Portfolios, as was the original Owner.

Non-spousal joint Owners (including Domestic Partners) are not eligible for spousal continuation, under current tax law.

Upon a spousal continuation, we will contribute to the contract value an amount by which the death benefit that would have been paid to the Beneficiary upon the death of the original Owner, exceeds the contract value as of the Good Order date (“Continuation Contribution”), if any. The Continuation Contribution is not considered a Purchase Payment for the purposes of any other calculations except the death benefit following the Continuing Spouse’s death.

We will process a spousal continuation as of the date we

receive the following at the Annuity Service Center:

•Death Claim form; and

•Satisfactory proof of death of the original Owner.

We will add any Continuation Contribution as of the date we receive both the Continuing Spouse’s written request to

continue the contract and satisfactory proof of death of the original Owner (“Continuation Date”) at the Annuity Service Center.

The age of the Continuing Spouse on the Continuation Date will be used to determine any future death benefits under the contract. If you elected the Return of Purchase Payment or the Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit, the death benefit payable upon the Continuing Spouse’s death would differ depending on the Continuing Spouse’s age on the Continuation Date. Please see APPENDIX E – DEATH BENEFITS FOLLOWING SPOUSAL CONTINUATION for a discussion of the death benefit calculations upon a Continuing Spouse’s death.

Please see APPENDIX I – DEATH BENEFITS FOLLOWING SPOUSAL CONTINUATION BETWEEN MAY 1, 2017 AND SEPTEMBER 8, 2019 for a discussion of the death benefit calculations upon a Continuing Spouse’s death.

Please see APPENDIX F – DEATH BENEFITS AND SPOUSAL CONTINUATION DEATH BENEFITS FOR CONTRACTS ISSUED PRIOR TO MAY 1, 2017 for details regarding those benefits.

Please see OPTIONAL LIVING BENEFITS above for information on the effect of Spousal Continuation on these benefits.

Expenses

We may deduct the following fees and expenses if applicable from your contract, as described later in this section.

•

Base Contract Expenses

•

Withdrawal Charges

•

Underlying Fund Expenses

•

Contract Maintenance Fee

•

Transfer Fee

•

Optional Living Benefit Fee

•

Optional Death Benefit Fee

Fees and expenses associated with your contract reduce your investment return. Before purchasing this contract, you should consider the effect of fees and expenses on your investment. You should fully discuss this decision with your financial representative. We will not increase certain contract fees, such as the Base Contract Expense or withdrawal charges for the life of your contract. Underlying Fund investment management fees may increase or decrease. Some states may require that we charge less than the amounts described below. Please see APPENDIX B — STATE CONTRACT AVAILABILITY AND/OR VARIABILITY for state-specific expenses.

We intend to profit from the sale of the contracts. Our profit may be derived as a result of a variety of pricing factors including but not limited to the fees and charges assessed

under the contract and/or amounts we may receive from an Underlying Fund, its investment advisor and/or subadvisors (or affiliates thereof). Please see PAYMENTS IN CONNECTION WITH DISTRIBUTION OF THE CONTRACT below. The fees, charges, amounts received from the Underlying Funds (or affiliates thereof) and any resulting profit may be used for any corporate purpose including supporting marketing, distribution and/or administration of the contract and, in its role as an intermediary, the Underlying Funds.

Base Contract Expenses

1.15%

(annualized charge as a percentage of the average daily ending net asset value allocated to Variable Portfolios)

The Base Contract Expense (also referred to as Separate Account Charge) compensates the Company for the mortality and expense risk and the costs of contract distribution assumed by the Company.

Generally, the mortality risks assumed by the Company arise from its contractual obligations to make annuity income payments after the Annuity Date and to provide a death benefit. The expense risk assumed by the Company is that the costs of administering the contracts and the Separate Account will exceed the amount received from the fees and charges assessed under the contract. There may not necessarily be a relationship between the administrative charge imposed under the contract and the amount of expenses that may be attributable to the contract.

If these charges do not cover all of our expenses, we will pay the difference. Likewise, if these charges exceed our expenses, we will keep the difference. The mortality and expense risk charge is expected to result in a profit. Profit may be used for any cost or expense including supporting distribution. Please see PAYMENTS IN CONNECTION WITH DISTRIBUTION OF THE CONTRACT below.

If your Beneficiary elects to take the death benefit amount under the Extended Legacy Program, we will deduct an annual Base Contract Expense of 1.15% of the average daily ending net asset value allocated to the Variable Portfolios. Please see Extended Legacy Program under DEATH BENEFITS.

Withdrawal Charges

The contract provides a penalty-free withdrawal amount every contract year. Please see ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY above. You may incur a withdrawal charge if you take a withdrawal in excess of the penalty-free withdrawal amount and/or if you fully surrender your contract. Withdrawal Charges reimburse us for the cost of contract sales, expenses associated with issuing your contract and other acquisition expenses.

We apply a withdrawal charge against each Purchase Payment you contribute to the contract. After a Purchase Payment has been in the contract for 7 complete years, a withdrawal charge no longer applies to that Purchase Payment. The withdrawal charge percentage declines over time for each Purchase Payment in the contract. The withdrawal charge schedule is as follows:

Withdrawal Charge Schedule

Years Since Purchase Payment Receipt	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8+
Withdrawal Charge	8%	7%	6%	5%	4%	3%	2%	0%

When calculating the withdrawal charge, we treat withdrawals as coming first from the Purchase Payments that have been in your contract the longest, which means the Purchase Payments that have the lowest Withdrawal Charge percentages. However, for tax purposes, per IRS requirements, your withdrawals are considered as coming first from taxable earnings, then from Purchase Payments, which are not taxable if your contract is Non-Qualified. Please see ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY above.

If you take a partial withdrawal, you can choose whether any applicable withdrawal charges are deducted from the amount withdrawn or from the contract value remaining after the amount withdrawn. If you fully surrender your contract value, we deduct any applicable withdrawal charges from the amount surrendered.

We will not assess a withdrawal charge when we pay a death benefit or when you annuitize your contract.

Withdrawals made prior to age 59½ may result in tax penalties. Please see TAXES below.

Underlying Fund Expenses

There are deductions from and expenses paid out of the assets of each Underlying Fund. Detailed information about these deductions and expenses can be found in the prospectuses for the Underlying Funds.

Investment Management Fees

Investment management fees are set by the Underlying Funds’ own board of directors, and may vary. These fees are not fixed or specified in your annuity contract.

Each Variable Portfolio purchases shares of a corresponding Underlying Fund. The Accumulation Unit value for each purchased Variable Portfolio share reflects the investment management fees and other expenses of the corresponding

Underlying Funds. If you invest in a Master Fund, the Accumulation Unit value will also reflect the investment management fee and other expenses of the corresponding Master Fund.

12b-1 Fees

Certain Underlying Funds available in this product, including the Feeder Funds, assess a 12b-1 fee of 0.25% of the average daily net assets allocated to those Underlying Funds. Over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment.

There is an annualized 0.25% fee applicable to Class 3 shares of Seasons Series Trust and SunAmerica Series Trust, Class 2 shares of Franklin Templeton Variable Insurance Products Trust, Series II shares of AIM Invesco Insurance Funds (Invesco Variable Insurance Funds), Advisory Class Shares of PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust, and Class Service shares of Goldman Sachs Variable Insurance Trust. This amount is generally used to pay financial intermediaries for services provided over the life of your contract.

The 12b-1 fees compensate us for costs associated with the servicing of these shares, including, but not limited to, reimbursing us for expenditures we make to registered representatives in selling firms for providing services to contract Owners who are indirect beneficial Owners of these shares and for maintaining contract Owner accounts.

Contract Maintenance Fee

During the Accumulation Phase, we deduct a contract maintenance fee of $50 from your contract once per year on your contract anniversary. This charge compensates us for the cost of administering your contract. The fee is deducted proportionately from your contract value on your contract anniversary by redeeming the number of Accumulation Units invested in the Variable Portfolios and the dollar amount invested in available Fixed Accounts which in total equal the amount of the fee. If you withdraw your entire contract value, we will deduct the contract maintenance fee from that withdrawal.

If your contract value is $75,000 or more on your contract anniversary date, we currently waive this fee. This waiver is subject to change without notice.

Please see APPENDIX B — STATE CONTRACT AVAILABILITY AND/OR VARIABILITY for the state-specific Contract Maintenance Fee.

Transfer Fee

After 15 Transfers

$25

We permit 15 free transfers between investment options each contract year. We charge you $25 for each additional

transfer that contract year. The transfer fee compensates us for the cost of processing your transfer.
In Pennsylvania and Texas, any transfer over the limit of 15 will incur a $10 transfer fee.

Optional Living Benefit Fees

The Living Benefit fees will be calculated as a percentage of the Income Base for all years in which the Living Benefits are in effect. The Living Benefit fee is charged and received by the Company in consideration of the Living Benefit guarantees provided to you.

The fee is deducted proportionately from your contract value by redeeming the number of Accumulation Units invested in the Variable Portfolios and the value in the Secure Value Account, which in total equals the amount of the fee. If your contract value is reduced to zero before the Living Benefit has been cancelled, the fee will no longer be assessed.

We will not assess a quarterly fee if you annuitize your contract or if a death benefit is paid before the end of the Benefit Quarter. If the Living Benefit is still in effect while your contract value is greater than zero, and you surrender your contract, we will assess a pro-rata charge for the fee applicable to the Benefit Quarter in which the surrender occurs if you surrender your contract before the end of a Benefit Quarter. The pro-rata fee is calculated by multiplying the fee by the number of days between the date the fee was last assessed and the date of surrender, divided by the number of days between the prior and the next Benefit Quarter Anniversaries.

Polaris Income Max Fee
Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex Fee

Number of Covered Persons	Maximum Annual Fee Rate	Minimum Annual Fee Rate	Maximum Annualized Fee Rate Decrease or Increase Each Benefit Quarter*
One Covered Person	2.50%	0.60%	±0.40%
Two Covered Persons	2.50%	0.60%	±0.40%

The fee rate can decrease or increase no more than 0.10% each quarter (0.40%/ 4). If you change your Income Option election on the Activation Date, the quarterly fee rate can increase no more than 0.1625% [(0.40% + 0.25%)/ 4] for the first Benefit Quarter immediately following the Activation Date.

Please see the Rate Sheet Supplement that must accompany this prospectus for the applicable initial annual fee rate.

Lifetime Income Option Change Fee*

0.25%

The initial annual fee rate is guaranteed not to change for the first Benefit Year. Subsequently, the fee rate may change quarterly subject to the parameters identified in the table above. After the first Benefit Year, on each Benefit Quarter Anniversary, we will (1) deduct the fee in effect for the previous Benefit Quarter; and (2) determine the fee rate applicable to the next Benefit Quarter. Any fee adjustment is based on a non-discretionary formula tied to the change in VIX. In general, as the average value of the VIX decreases or increases, your fee rate will decrease or increase accordingly, subject to the minimums and maximum identified in the table above.

Any fee adjustment is based on a non-discretionary formula tied to the VIX. In general, as the average value of the VIX decreases or increases, your fee rate will decrease or increase accordingly, subject to the minimums and maximum identified in the table above.

Please see APPENDIX B — STATE CONTRACT AVAILABILITY AND/OR VARIABILITY for state specific information regarding the assessment of the fee.

Please see APPENDIX C — FORMULA AND EXAMPLES OF CALCULATIONS OF THE POLARIS INCOME MAX AND POLARIS INCOME PLUS DAILY FLEX FEE.

If your contract was issued prior to May 1, 2023, please see APPENDIX G — LIVING BENEFITS FOR CONTRACTS ISSUED PRIOR TO MAY 1, 2023, for applicable fees. If you purchased your contract on or after May 1, 2023, please see APPENDIX J - LIVING BENEFIT RATES FOR CONTRACTS ISSUED ON OR AFTER MAY 1, 2023

Return of Purchase Payment Death Benefit Fee

If you elect the Return of Purchase Payment death benefit, the annualized fee is 0.15% of the average daily ending net asset value allocated to the Variable Portfolio(s).

Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit Fee

If you elect the Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit, the fee is 0.40% of the average daily ending net asset value allocated to the Variable Portfolio(s).

Premium Tax

Certain states charge the Company a tax on Purchase Payments that ranges from 0% to 3.5%. Some states assess this premium tax when the contract is issued while other states only assess the tax upon annuitization. The Company may advance any tax amount due, but we will deduct such amount from your contract value only when and if you begin the Income Phase (annuitization).

Income Taxes

We do not currently deduct income taxes from your contract. We reserve the right to do so in the future.

Reduction or Elimination of Fees, Expenses and Additional Amounts Credited

Sometimes sales of contracts to groups of similarly situated individuals may lower our fees and expenses. We determine which groups are eligible for this treatment. Some of the criteria we evaluate to make a determination are size of the group; amount of expected Purchase Payments; relationship existing between us and the prospective purchaser; length of time a group of contracts is expected to remain active; purpose of the purchase and whether that purpose increases the likelihood that our expenses will be reduced; and/or any other factors that we believe indicate that fees and expenses may be reduced.

The Company may make such a determination regarding sales to its employees, its affiliates’ employees and employees of currently contracted broker-dealers; its registered representatives; and immediate family members of all of those described. Currently, the Company credits an additional amount to contracts sold to the following groups: (1) employees of the Company and its affiliates, and their immediate family members; (2) appointed agents and registered representatives of broker-dealers that sell the Company’s and its affiliates’ variable contracts, and the agents’ and registered representatives’ immediate family members; (3) trustees of mutual funds offered in the Company’s and its affiliates’ variable contracts. The additional amount credited to a contract sold to one of the above individuals will generally equal the commission payable on the initial purchase payment for the contract. This means that the additional amount will generally be 6.00% of the initial Purchase Payment.

Payments in connection with distribution of the contract

Payments We Make

The Contracts are sold by licensed insurance agents who are registered representatives of broker-dealers, which are members of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, unless such broker-dealers are exempt from the broker-dealer registration requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Commissions. Registered representatives of broker-dealers (“selling firms”) licensed under federal securities laws and state insurance laws sell the contract to the public. The selling firms have entered into written selling agreements with the Company and Corebridge Capital Services, Inc., the distributor of the contracts. We pay commissions to the selling firms for the sale of your contract. The selling firms are paid commissions for the promotion and sale of the contracts according to one or more schedules. The amount

and timing of commissions will vary depending on the selling firm and its selling agreement with us. For example, as one option, we may pay upfront commission only, up to a maximum 6.25% of each Purchase Payment you invest. Another option may be a lower upfront commission on each Purchase Payment, with a trail commission of up to a maximum 1.00% of contract value annually for the life of the contract.

The registered representative who sells you the contract typically receives a portion of the compensation we pay to his/her selling firm, depending on the agreement between the selling firms and its registered representative and their internal compensation program.

Additional Payments. VALIC sometimes retains and compensates business consultants to assist VALIC in marketing group employee benefit services to employers. VALIC business consultants are not associated persons of VALIC and are not authorized to sell or market securities or insurance products to employers or to group plan participants. The fees paid to such business consultants are part of VALIC’s general overhead and are not charged back to employers, group employee benefit plans or plan participants.

In addition, the Company and Corebridge Capital Services, Inc., the distributor, may enter into marketing and/or sales agreements with certain broker-dealers regarding the promotion and marketing of the Contracts. The sales commissions and any marketing arrangements as described are paid by the Company and are not deducted from Purchase Payments. We anticipate recovering these amounts from the fees and charges collected under the Contract. Please see EXPENSES above.

Payments We Receive

We and our affiliates may directly or indirectly receive revenue sharing payments from the Trusts, their investment advisors, subadvisors and/or distributors (or affiliates thereof), in connection with certain administrative, marketing and other services we provide and related expenses we incur. The availability of these revenue sharing arrangements creates an incentive for us to seek and offer Underlying Funds (and classes of shares of such Underlying Funds) that pay us higher amounts. Other Underlying Funds (or available classes of shares) may have lower fees and better overall investment performance. Not all Trusts pay the same amount of revenue sharing. Therefore, the amount of fees we collect may be greater or smaller based on the Underlying Funds you select.

We and our affiliates generally receive three kinds of payments described below.

Rule 12b-1 or Service Fees. We receive 12b-1 fees of up to 0.25% or service fees of up to 0.50% of the average daily net assets in certain Underlying Funds, including the Feeder Funds that are attributable to the contract and to certain other variable insurance products that we and our affiliates

issue. Rule 12b-1 fees and service fees paid out of Underlying Fund assets will reduce the amount of assets that otherwise would be available for investment, and reduce the Underlying Fund’s investment return. The dollar amount of asset-based payments we receive from the Underlying Funds is not set and will fluctuate over time depending on the Underlying Funds’ net asset value and the amount of assets invested.

Administrative, Marketing and Support Service Fees. We receive compensation of up to 0.525% annually based on assets under management from certain Trusts’ investment advisors, subadvisors and/or distributors (or affiliates thereof). These payments may be derived, in whole or in part, from the profits the investment advisor realizes on the investment management fees deducted from assets of the Underlying Funds or wholly from the assets of the Underlying Funds. Contract Owners, through their indirect investment in the Trusts, bear the costs of these investment management fees, which in turn will reduce the return on your investment. The payments we receive are generally based on assets under management from certain Trusts’ investment advisors or their affiliates and vary by Trust. Some investment advisers, subadvisors and/or distributors (or affiliates thereof) pay us more than others. The amount may be significant. Such amounts received from SAAMCo, an affiliate under common control with the Company, are not expected to exceed 0.50% annually based on assets under management.

Other Payments. Certain investment advisors, subadvisors and/or distributors (or affiliates thereof) may help offset the costs we incur for marketing activities and training to support sales of the Underlying Funds in the contract. These amounts are paid voluntarily and may provide such advisors, subadvisors and/or distributors access to national and regional sales conferences attended by our employees and registered representatives. The amounts paid depend on the nature of the meetings, the number of meetings attended, the costs expected to be incurred and the level of the advisor’s, subadvisor’s or distributor’s participation.

In addition, we (and our affiliates) may receive occasional gifts, entertainment or other compensation as an incentive to market the Underlying Funds and to cooperate with their marketing efforts. As a result of these payments, the investment advisors, subadvisors and/or distributors (or affiliates thereof) may benefit from increased access to our wholesalers and to our affiliates involved in the distribution of the contract.

Annuity Income Options

The Income Phase

What is the Income Phase?

During the Income Phase, we use the money accumulated in your contract to make regular payments to you. This is known as “annuitizing” your contract. At this point, the Accumulation Phase ends. You will no longer be able to take withdrawals of contract value and all other features and benefits of your contract will terminate, including your ability to surrender your contract.

Beginning the Income Phase is an important event. You have different options available to you. You should discuss your options with your financial representative and/or tax adviser so that together you may make the best decision for your particular circumstances.

When does the Income Phase begin?

Generally, you can annuitize your contract any time after your second contract anniversary (“Annuity Date”) and on or before the Latest Annuity Date, defined below, by completing and mailing the Annuity Option Selection Form to our Annuity Service Center.

If you do not request to annuitize your contract on the Annuity Date of your choice, your contract will be annuitized on the Latest Annuity Date. If your contract is jointly owned, the Latest Annuity Date is based on the older Owner’s date of birth. Your Latest Annuity Date is defined as the first NYSE business day of the month following your 95th birthday.

How do I elect to begin the Income Phase?

You must select one of the annuity income payment options, listed below, that best meets your needs by mailing a completed Annuity Option Selection Form to our Annuity Service Center. If you do not select an annuity income payment option, your contract will be annuitized in accordance with the default annuity income payment option specified under Annuity Income Options below.

What is the impact on the living and death benefits if I annuitize?

If you annuitize, you may choose to take annuity income payments or withdrawals under your Living Benefit. Prior to annuitizing, you should seek advice on whether taking annuity income payments under the contract or guaranteed withdrawals under a Living Benefit are more advantageous to you. Upon annuitizing the contract, the death benefit will terminate. If your contract value is reduced to zero prior to annuitization as a result of receiving guaranteed withdrawals under the Living Benefit, you will receive your Protected Income Payment under the Living Benefit. Please see OPTIONAL LIVING BENEFITs and DEATH BENEFITS above.

Annuity Income Options

You must send a written request to our Annuity Service Center to select an annuity income option. Once you begin receiving annuity income payments, you cannot change your annuity income option. If you elect to receive annuity income payments but do not select an annuity income option, your annuity income payments shall be in accordance with Option 4 for a period of 10 years; for annuity income payments based on joint lives, the default is Option 3 for a period of 10 years. Generally, the amount of each annuity income payment will be less with greater frequency of payments or if you chose a longer period certain guarantee.

We base our calculation of annuity income payments on the life expectancy of the Annuitant and the annuity rates set forth in your contract. In most contracts, the Owner and Annuitant are the same person. The Owner may change the Annuitant if different from the Owner at any time prior to the Annuity Date. The Owner must notify us if the Annuitant dies before the Annuity Date and designate a new Annuitant. If we do not receive a new Annuitant election, the Owner may not select an annuity income option based on the life of the Annuitant.

If the contract is owned by a non-natural Owner, the Annuitant cannot be changed after the contract has been issued and the death of the Annuitant will trigger the payment of the death benefit.

If you elect a lifetime based annuity income option without a guaranteed period, your annuity income payments depend on longevity only. That means that you may potentially not live long enough to receive an annuity income payment. If you die before the first annuity income payment, no annuity income payments will be made.

Annuity Income Option 1 – Life Income Annuity

This option provides annuity income payments for the life of the Annuitant. Annuity income payments end when the Annuitant dies.

Annuity Income Option 2 – Joint and Survivor Life Income Annuity

This option provides annuity income payments for the life of the Annuitant and for the life of another designated person. Upon the death of either person, we will continue to make annuity income payments during the lifetime of the survivor. Annuity income payments end when the survivor dies. For Qualified contracts, under certain circumstances, the survivor’s annuity income payments may be limited based on the Internal Revenue Code.

Annuity Income Option 3 – Joint and Survivor Life Income Annuity with 10 or 20 Years Guaranteed

This option is similar to Option 2 above, with an additional guarantee of payments for at least 10 or 20 years, depending on the period chosen. If the Annuitant and the survivor die before all of the guaranteed annuity income

payments have been made, the remaining annuity income payments are made to the Beneficiary under your contract. A guarantee of payments greater than 10 years may not be available to all Beneficiaries. For Qualified contracts, under certain circumstances the survivor's annuity income payments may be limited based on the Internal Revenue Code.

Annuity Income Option 4 – Life Income Annuity with 10 or 20 Years Guaranteed

This option is similar to income Option 1 above with an additional guarantee of payments for at least 10 or 20 years, depending on the period chosen. If the Annuitant dies before all guaranteed annuity income payments are made, the remaining annuity income payments are made to the Beneficiary under your contract. A guarantee of payments greater than 10 years may not be available to all Beneficiaries. For Qualified contracts, under certain circumstances the Beneficiary’s annuity income payments may be limited based on the Internal Revenue Code.

Annuity Income Option 5 – Income for a Specified Period

This option provides annuity income payments for a guaranteed period ranging from 5 to 30 years, depending on the period chosen. If the Annuitant dies before all the guaranteed annuity income payments are made, the remaining annuity income payments are made to the Beneficiary under your contract. A guarantee of payments for more than 10 years may not be available to all Beneficiaries. For Qualified contracts, under certain circumstances the Beneficiary’s annuity income payments may be limited based on the Internal Revenue Code. Additionally, if variable annuity income payments are elected under this option, you (or the Beneficiary under the contract if the Annuitant dies prior to all guaranteed annuity income payments being made) may redeem any remaining guaranteed variable annuity income payments after the Annuity Date. Upon your request, the contract may be commuted if a period certain annuitization income option has been elected. The amount available upon such redemption would be the discounted present value of any remaining guaranteed annuity income payments that would reflect the fluctuating trading costs for liquidating the securities in place to pay for these contractual obligations. The detrimental impact depends on the nature of the securities (and which may include short-term, medium term, and/or long-term investments) resulting in varying losses to the Company.

The value of an Annuity Unit, regardless of the option chosen, takes into account Base Contract Expense which includes a mortality and expense risk charge. Since Option 5 does not contain an element of mortality risk, no benefit is derived from this charge.

Please see the Statement of Additional Information for a more detailed discussion of the annuity income options.

Please see OPTIONAL LIVING BENEFITS above for annuity income options available under the Living Benefits.

Fixed or Variable Annuity Income Payments

You can choose annuity income payments that are fixed, variable or both. Unless otherwise elected, if at the date when annuity income payments begin you are invested in the Variable Portfolios only, your annuity income payments will be variable and if your money is only in Fixed Accounts at that time, your annuity income payments will be fixed in amount. Further, if you are invested in both Fixed Accounts and Variable Portfolios when annuity income payments begin, your payments will be fixed and variable, unless otherwise elected. If annuity income payments are fixed, the Company guarantees the amount of each payment. If the annuity income payments are variable, the amount is not guaranteed and may fluctuate as described under ANNUITY INCOME PAYMENTS below.

Annuity Income Payments

We make annuity income payments on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis as elected by you. You instruct us to send you a check or to have the payments directly deposited into your bank account. If state law allows, we distribute annuities with a contract value of $5,000 or less in a lump sum. Also, if state law allows and the selected annuity income option results in annuity income payments of less than $50 per payment, we may decrease the frequency of payments.

If you are invested in the Variable Portfolios after the Annuity Date, your annuity income payments vary depending on the following:

•

for life income options, your age when annuity income payments begin; and

•

the contract value attributable to the Variable Portfolios on the Annuity Date; and

•

the 3.5% assumed investment rate used in the annuity table for the contract; and

•

the performance of the Variable Portfolios in which you are invested during the time you receive annuity income payments.

If you are invested in both the Fixed Accounts and the Variable Portfolios after the Annuity Date, the allocation of funds between the Fixed Accounts and Variable Portfolios also impacts the amount of your annuity income payments.

The value of fixed annuity income payments, if elected, will not be less than 1%. The value of variable annuity income payments, if elected, is based on an assumed interest rate (“AIR”) of 3.5% compounded annually. Variable annuity income payments generally increase or decrease from one annuity income payment date to the next based upon the performance of the applicable Variable Portfolios. If the performance of the Variable Portfolios selected is equal to

the AIR, the annuity income payments will remain constant. If performance of Variable Portfolios is greater than the AIR, the annuity income payments will increase and if it is less than the AIR, the annuity income payments will decline.

Deferment of Payments

We may defer making fixed payments for up to six months, or less if required by law. Interest is credited to you during the deferral period. Please see ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY above for a discussion of when payments from a Variable Portfolio may be suspended or postponed.

Taxes

The Federal income tax treatment of annuity contracts or retirement plans/programs is complex and sometimes uncertain. The discussion below is intended for general informational purposes only and are not intended as tax advice, either general or individualized, nor should they be interpreted to provide any predictions or guarantees of a particular tax treatment. Such discussions generally are based upon the Company’s understanding of current tax rules and interpretations, and may include areas of those rules that are more or less clear or certain. This discussion also does not address other Federal tax consequences (including consequences of sales to foreign individuals or entities), state or local tax consequences, estate or gift tax consequences, or the impact of foreign tax laws, associated with your contract.

Tax laws are subject to legislative modification, and while many such modifications will have only a prospective application, it is important to recognize that a change could have a retroactive effect as well. As a result, you should always consult a tax adviser about the application of tax rules found in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“IRC” or the Code), Treasury Regulations and applicable Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) guidance to your individual situation. We do not guarantee the tax status or treatment of your annuity.

Section 72 of the Code governs taxation of annuities in general. A natural owner is not taxed on increases in the value of a contract until distribution occurs, either in the form of a non-annuity distribution (or deemed distribution) or as annuity income payments under the annuity option elected. For a lump-sum payment received as a total surrender (total redemption), the recipient is taxed on the portion of the payment that exceeds the cost basis of the contract. For a payment received as a withdrawal (partial redemption), federal tax liability is determined on a last-in, first-out basis, meaning taxable income is withdrawn before the cost basis of the contract is withdrawn. A different rule applies to Purchase Payments made (including, if applicable, in the case of a contract issued in exchange for a prior contract) prior to August 14, 1982. Those Purchase Payments are considered withdrawn first for federal income tax purposes, followed by earnings on those Purchase

Payments. For Non-Qualified contracts, the cost basis is generally the Purchase Payments. The taxable portion of the lump-sum payment is taxed at ordinary income tax rates. Tax penalties may also apply.

If you purchase your contract under one of a number of types of employer-sponsored retirement plans, as an individual retirement annuity, or under an individual retirement account, your Contract is referred to as a Qualified Contract. Examples of qualified plans or arrangements are: Individual Retirement Annuities and Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), Roth IRAs, Tax-Sheltered Annuities (also referred to as 403(b) annuities or 403(b) contracts), plans of self-employed individuals (often referred to as H.R. 10 Plans or Keogh Plans), pension and profit sharing plans including 401(k) plans, and governmental 457(b) plans. Typically, for employer-sponsored retirement plans and tax-deductible IRA contributions, you have not paid any tax on the Purchase Payments used to buy your contract and therefore, you have no cost basis in your contract. However, you normally will have a cost basis in a Roth IRA, a designated Roth account in a 403(b), 401(k), or governmental 457(b) plan, and you may have cost basis in a traditional IRA or in another Qualified contract.

For annuity income payments, the portion of each payment that is in excess of the exclusion amount is includible in taxable income. The exclusion amount for payments based on a fixed annuity option is determined by multiplying the payment by the ratio that the cost basis of the Contract (if any, and adjusted for any period or refund feature) bears to the expected return under the Contract. The exclusion amount for payments based on a variable annuity option is determined by dividing the cost basis of the Contract (adjusted for any period certain or refund guarantee) by the number of years over which the annuity is expected to be paid. Payments received after the investment in the Contract has been recovered (i.e. when the total of the excludable amount equals the investment in the Contract) are fully taxable. The taxable portion is taxed at ordinary income tax rates. For certain types of qualified plans there may be no cost basis in the Contract within the meaning of Section 72 of the Code. Owners, annuitants and beneficiaries under the Contracts should consult a tax advisor for advice about the tax consequences of any distributions.

Annuity Contracts in General

The IRC provides for special rules regarding the tax treatment of annuity contracts.

•

Generally, taxes on the earnings in your annuity contract are deferred until you take the money out.

•

Qualified contracts that satisfy specific IRC requirements automatically provide tax deferral regardless of whether the underlying contract is an annuity, a trust, or a custodial account.

•

Different rules and tax treatment apply depending on how you take the money out and whether your contract is Qualified or Non-Qualified.

Non-Qualified Contract

If you do not purchase your contract under an employer-sponsored retirement plan/arrangement, or an Individual Retirement Account or Individual Retirement Annuity (“IRA”), including a Roth IRA, your contract is referred to as a Non-Qualified contract.

Qualified Contract

If you purchase your contract under an employer-sponsored retirement plan/arrangement or an Individual Retirement Account or Individual Retirement Annuity (“IRA”), including Roth IRA, your contract is referred to as a Qualified contract. Taxation of owners in each qualified plan varies with the type of plan and terms and conditions of each specific plan. Owners and Beneficiaries are cautioned that benefits under a qualified plan may be subject to limitations under the IRC and the employer-sponsored plan, in addition to the terms and conditions of the contracts issued pursuant to the plan.

Employer-sponsored plans/arrangements include:

•

Tax-Sheltered Annuities (also referred to as 403(b) annuities)

•

Plans of self-employed individuals (often referred to as H.R. 10 Plans or Keogh Plans)

•

Pension and profit sharing plans including 401(k) plans, and governmental 457(b) plans

If you are purchasing the contract as an investment vehicle for a trust under a Qualified contract, you should consider that the contract does not provide any additional tax-deferral benefits beyond the treatment provided by the trust itself.

In addition, if the contract itself is a qualifying arrangement (as with a 403(b) annuity or IRA), the contract generally does not provide tax deferral benefits beyond the treatment provided to alternative qualifying arrangements such as trusts or custodial accounts. However, in both cases the contract offers features and benefits that other investments may not offer. You and your financial representative should carefully consider whether the features and benefits, including the investment options, lifetime annuity income options, and protection through Living Benefits, death benefits and other benefits provided under an annuity contract issued in connection with a Qualified contract are suitable for your needs and objectives and are appropriate in light of the expense.

On December 20, 2019, the Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement (“SECURE”) Act was signed into law as part of larger appropriations legislation. Additionally, The SECURE 2.0 Act OF 2022 (“SECURE

2.0”) was passed on December 29, 2022. SECURE and SECURE 2.0 include many provisions affecting Qualified Contracts including:

•

an increase in the age at which required minimum distributions (RMDs) generally must commence. The updated RMD ages are:

○

Age 75, if you were born on or after January 1, 1960.

○

Age 73 if you were born on or after January 1, 1951, and before January 1, 1960.

○

Age 72 if you were born on or after July 1, 1949, and before January 1, 1951.

○

Age 70 ½ if you were born before July 1, 1949.

•

new limitations on the period for beneficiary distributions following the death of the plan participant or IRA owner (when the death occurs on or after January 1, 2020;

•

elimination of the age 70 ½ restriction on traditional IRA contributions for tax years beginning 2020 (combined with an offset to the amount of eligible qualified charitable distributions (QCDs) by the amount of post-70 ½ IRA contributions);

•

new exceptions to the 10% additional tax on early distributions, for the qualified birth or adoption of a child, which also became an allowable plan distribution event for terminal illnesses, and for eligible distributions for domestic abuse victims;

•

expansion of distribution and loan (including loan repayment) rules for qualified disaster recovery distributions from certain employer-sponsored retirement plans and IRAs; and

•

reduction of the earliest permissible age for in-service distributions from pension plans and certain Section 457 plans to 59 ½.

The foregoing is not an exhaustive list. The SECURE Act and SECURE 2.0 included many additional provisions affecting Qualified Contracts. Additionally, SECURE 2.0 introduced numerous provisions into law that take effect after 2023.

Some provisions in the Act are subject to the terms of an employer’s retirement plan and IRA and may not be available with your annuity. You should consult with your financial professional or personal tax advisor if you are impacted by these changes.

Tax Treatment of Purchase Payments

Non-Qualified Contract

In general, your cost basis in a Non-Qualified contract is equal to the Purchase Payments you put into the contract. You have already been taxed on the Purchase Payments you contributed in your Non-Qualified contract.

Qualified Contract

Typically, for employer sponsored plans/arrangements and tax-deductible IRA contributions, you have not paid any tax on the Purchase Payments contributed to your contract and therefore, you have no cost basis in your contract. However, you normally will have cost basis in a Roth IRA, a designated Roth account in a 403(b), 401(k), or governmental 457(b) plan, and you may have cost basis in a traditional IRA or in another Qualified contract.

The following are general summary descriptions of the types of qualified plans with which the contracts may be used. Such descriptions are not exhaustive and are for general information purposes only. The tax rules regarding qualified plans are very complex and will have differing applications depending on individual facts and circumstances. Each purchaser should obtain competent tax advice prior to purchasing a contract issued under a qualified plan. Contracts issued pursuant to qualified plans include special provisions restricting contract provisions that may otherwise be available and described in this prospectus. Generally, contracts issued pursuant to qualified plans are not transferable except upon surrender or annuitization. Various penalty and excise taxes may apply to contributions or distributions made in violation of applicable limitations. Furthermore, certain contractual withdrawal penalties and restrictions may apply to surrender from Qualified contracts. You should consult a qualified tax advisor associated with any questions related to the contribution to or distribution or transfer from a qualified plan or IRA, or Roth IRA.

Note that the Company no longer issues new qualified contracts other than IRAs or ROTH IRAs.

Qualified Contract - Plans of Self-Employed Individuals: “H.R. 10 Plans”

Section 401 of the Code permits self-employed individuals to establish qualified plans for themselves and their employees, commonly referred to as “H.R. 10” or “Keogh” Plans. Contributions made to the plan for the benefit of the employees will not be included in the gross income of the employees, for federal tax purposes, until distributed from the plan if certain conditions are met. The tax consequences to owners may vary depending upon the particular plan design. However, the Code places limitations and restrictions on these plans, such as: amounts of allowable contributions; form, manner and timing of distributions; vesting and non-forfeitability of interests; nondiscrimination in eligibility and participation; and the tax treatment of distributions, withdrawals and surrenders. Purchasers of contracts for use with an H.R. 10 Plan should obtain competent tax advice as to the tax treatment and suitability of such an investment.

Qualified Contract—Tax-Sheltered Annuity (403(b))

Section 403(b) of the Code permits the purchase of “tax-sheltered annuities” by public schools and not-for-profit organizations described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code. These qualifying employers may make contributions to the

contracts for the benefit of their employees. Such contributions are not includible in the gross income of the employee until the employee receives distributions from the contract if certain conditions are met. The amount of contributions to the tax-sheltered annuity is limited to certain maximums imposed by the Code, adjusted annually. One of these limits, on the amount that the employee may contribute on a voluntary basis, is imposed by the annuity contract as well as by the Code. Furthermore, the Code sets forth additional restrictions governing such items as transferability, distributions, nondiscrimination and withdrawals. Any employee should obtain competent tax advice as to the tax treatment and suitability of such an Investment.

On July 26, 2007, the Treasury Department published comprehensive 403(b) regulations that were largely effective on January 1, 2009. Included in the requirements under the regulations was a requirement that employers maintain their 403(b) plans pursuant to a written plan. Effective January 1, 2009 the Company no longer accepts new Purchase Payments (including contributions, transfers and exchanges) into new or existing 403(b) annuities. You may wish to discuss the regulations and/or the general information above with your tax adviser.

Qualified Contract—Individual Retirement Annuities (IRA) or Roth IRA

The IRA Disclosure Statement, ROTH IRA Disclosure Statement, or Traditional, SEP, and Roth Individual Retirement Annuity (IRA) Combined Disclosure Statement which was received at the time of original issue of your IRA or Roth IRA contains information about eligibility, contribution limits, distribution restrictions and other tax information.

Individual Retirement Annuities

Section 408(b) of the Code permits eligible individuals to contribute to an individual retirement program known as a traditional “Individual Retirement Annuity” (“IRA”). Under applicable limitations, certain amounts (adjusted annually) may be contributed to an IRA which will be deductible from the individual’s gross income. The ability to deduct an IRA contribution to a traditional IRA is subject to limits based upon income levels, retirement plan participation status, and other factors. IRAs are subject to limitations on eligibility, contributions, transferability and distributions. Purchasers of contracts to be qualified as IRAs should obtain competent tax advice as to the tax treatment and suitability of such an investment.

Roth IRAs

Section 408A of the Code permits an individual to contribute to an individual retirement program called a Roth IRA. Contributions to a Roth IRA are not deductible but distributions are tax-free if certain requirements are satisfied. Unlike traditional IRAs, to which everyone can contribute even if they cannot deduct the full contribution, Roth IRAs have income limitations on who can establish

such a contract. All persons may be eligible to convert a distribution from an employer-sponsored plan or from a traditional IRA into a Roth IRA. Conversions or rollovers from qualified plans into Roth IRAs normally require taxes to be paid on any previously untaxed amounts included in the amount converted.

Qualified Contract—Pension and Profit Sharing Plans

Section 401(a) of the Code permits certain employers to establish various types of retirement plans, including 401(k) plans, for employees. However, governmental employers may not establish new 401(k) plans. These retirement plans may permit the purchase of the contracts to provide benefits under the plan. Contributions to the plan for the benefit of employees will not be includible in the gross income of the employee until distributed from the plan if certain conditions are met. The tax consequences to owners may vary depending upon the particular plan design. However, the Code places limitations on all plans on such items as amount of allowable contributions; form, manner and timing of distributions; investing and non-forfeitability of interests; nondiscrimination in eligibility and participation; and the tax treatment of distributions, withdrawals and surrenders. Purchasers of contracts for use with pension or profit sharing plans should obtain competent tax advice as to the tax treatment and suitability of such an investment.

Qualified Contract— Deferred Compensation Plans — Section 457(b)

Under Section 457(b) of the Code, governmental and certain other tax-exempt employers may establish, for the benefit of their employees, deferred compensation plans, which may invest in annuity contracts. The Code, as in the case of employer sponsored retirement plans generally establishes limitations and restrictions on eligibility, contributions and distributions. Under these plans, contributions made for the benefit of the employees will not be includible in the employees’ gross income until distributed from, or in some cases made available under the plan.

Funds in a non-governmental 457(b) plan remain assets of the employer and are subject to claims by the creditors of the employer. All 457(b) plans of state and local governments must hold assets and income in a qualifying trust, custodial account, or annuity contract for the exclusive benefit of participants and their Beneficiaries.

Tax Treatment of Distributions

Distributions from Non-Qualified Contracts

Federal tax rules generally require that all Non-Qualified contracts issued by the same company to the same policyholder during the same calendar year will be treated as one annuity contract for purposes of determining the taxable amount upon distribution. Such treatment may result in adverse tax consequences including more rapid taxation of the distributed amounts from such combination of contracts. For purposes of this rule, contracts received in

a Section 1035 exchange will be considered issued in the year of the exchange. (However, the contracts may be treated as issued on the issue date of the contract being exchanged, for certain purposes, including for determining whether the contract is an immediate annuity contract.) Owners should consult a tax adviser prior to purchasing more than one Non-Qualified annuity contract from the same issuer in any calendar year.

The taxable portion of any withdrawals, whether annuity income payment or other withdrawal, generally is subject to applicable state and/or local income taxes, and may be subject to an additional 10% penalty tax unless withdrawn in conjunction with the following circumstances:

•

after attaining age 59½;

•

when paid to your Beneficiary after you die;

•

after you become disabled (as defined in the IRC);

•

when paid as a part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for your life (or life expectancy) or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of you and your designated Beneficiary for a period of 5 years or attainment of age 59½, whichever is later;

•

under an immediate annuity contract;

•

when attributable to Purchase Payments made prior to August 14, 1982.

Partial or Total Withdrawals

If you make partial or total withdrawals from a Non-Qualified contract, the IRC generally treats such withdrawals as coming first from taxable earnings and then coming from your Purchase Payments. Purchase Payments made prior to August 14, 1982, however, are an important exception to this general rule, and for tax purposes generally are treated as being distributed first, before either the earnings on those contributions, or other Purchase Payments and earnings in the contract.

Annuitization

If you annuitize your contract, a portion of each annuity income payment will be considered, for tax purposes, to be a return of a portion of your Purchase Payment, generally until you have received all of your Purchase Payment. The portion of each annuity income payment that is considered a return of your Purchase Payment will not be taxed.

Annuity to Annuity Transfer

A transfer of contract value to another annuity contract generally will be tax reported as a distribution unless we have sufficient information, on a form satisfying us, to confirm that the transfer qualifies as an exchange under IRC Section 1035 (a “1035 exchange”). Partial exchanges may be treated in a similar manner as 1035 exchanges of the entire contract. Revenue Procedure 2011-38 provides that on or after October 24, 2011 a direct transfer of a portion of the cash surrender value of an existing annuity

contract for a second annuity contract, regardless of whether the two annuity contracts are issued by the same or different companies, will be treated as a tax-free exchange under Code section 1035 if no amounts, other than amounts received an annuity for a period of 10 years or more or during one or more lives, are received under the original contract or the new contract during the 180 days beginning on the date of the transfer (in the case of a new contract, on the date the contract is placed in-force). Owners should seek their own tax advice regarding such transactions and the tax risks associated with subsequent surrenders or withdrawals.

Additional Tax on Net Investment Income

Information in this section generally does not apply to Qualified contracts, however taxable distributions from such contracts may be taken into account in determining the applicability of the Modified Adjusted Gross Income (“MAGI”) threshold.

Under Federal Tax law, there is a tax on net investment income, at the rate of 3.8% of applicable thresholds for MAGI based on type of filer. Further information may be found on www.irs.gov. An individual with MAGI in excess of the threshold will be required to pay this 3.8% tax on net investment income in excess of the applicable MAGI threshold. For this purpose, net investment income generally will include taxable withdrawals from a Non-Qualified contract, as well as other taxable amounts including amounts taxed annually to an Owner that is not a natural person (see Contracts Owned by a Trust or Corporation below).

Distributions from Qualified Contracts

Generally, you have not paid any taxes on the Purchase Payments used to buy a Qualified contract. As a result, most amounts withdrawn from the contract or received as annuity income payments will be taxable income. Exceptions to this general rule include withdrawals attributable to after-tax amounts permitted under the employer’s plan or contributed to a Roth IRA or non-deductible traditional IRA. Please consult your tax or legal advisors with regard to any tax reporting associated with a distribution from a traditional IRA that contains cost basis.

Withdrawals from other Qualified contracts are often limited by the IRC and by the employer-sponsored plan/arrangement.

The taxable portion of any withdrawal or annuity income payment from a Qualified contract (except for Tax-Sheltered Annuities) will be subject to an additional 10% penalty tax, under the IRC, except in the following circumstances:

•

after attainment of age 59½;

•

when paid to your Beneficiary after you die;

•

after you become disabled (as defined in the IRC);

•

after you become terminally ill;

•

as a part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for your life (or life expectancy) or the joint lives (or joint expectancies) of you and your designated Beneficiary for a period of 5 years or attainment of age 59½, whichever is later;

•

dividends paid with respect to stock of a corporation described in IRC Section 404(k);

•

payments up to the amount of your deductible medical expenses (without regard to whether you itemize deductions for the taxable year);

•

for payment of health insurance if you are unemployed and meet certain requirements;

•

distributions from IRAs for qualifying higher education expenses or first home purchases, with certain limitations;

•

payments to certain individuals called up for active duty after September 11, 2001;

•

payments up to $3,000 per year for health, life and accident insurance by certain retired public safety officers, which are federal income tax-free;

•

distributions for parents after the “qualified birth or adoption” of a new child (subject to limitations);

•

certain amounts to a domestic abuse victim;

•

certain amounts for emergency personal expenses;

•

withdrawals of net income on excess IRA contributions returned by the due date of your tax return.

Non-IRA contracts:

•

amounts distributed from a Code Section 457(b) plan other than to the extent such amounts in a governmental Code Section 457(b) plan represent rollovers from an IRA or employer-sponsored plan to which the 10% penalty would otherwise apply and which are treated as distributed from a Qualified plan for purposes of the premature distribution penalty;

•

payments to employees after separation from service after attainment of age 55 (does not apply to IRAs);

•

payments from a tax-qualified plan or section 403(b) plan made after you separate from service if you provided firefighting services and you (1) will be at least age 50 in the year of the separation or (2) have at least 25 years of service under the Plan (does not apply to IRAs); and

•

transfers to alternate payees pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order (does not apply to IRAs).

Annuitization

Unlike a Non-Qualified contract, if you annuitize your Qualified annuity contract the entire annuity income payment will be considered income, for tax purposes.

Direct and Indirect Rollovers

Under certain circumstances, you may be able to transfer amounts distributed from your employer sponsored plan/arrangement to another eligible plan or IRA. Generally, a distribution may be eligible for rollover but certain types of distributions cannot be rolled over, such as distributions received on account of:

(a)

a required minimum distribution,

(b)

a hardship withdrawal, or

(c)

a series of substantially equal payments (at least annually) made over your life expectancy or the joint life expectancies of you and your designated Beneficiary or a distribution made for a specified period of 10 years or more.

The IRS issued Announcement 2014-32 confirming its intent to apply the one-rollover-per-year limitation of 408(d)(3)(B) on an aggregate basis to all IRAs that an individual owns. This means that an individual cannot make a tax-free IRA-to-IRA rollover if he or she has made such a rollover involving any of the individual’s IRAs in the current tax year. If an intended rollover does not qualify for tax-free rollover treatment, contributions to your IRA may constitute excess contributions that may exceed contribution limits. This one-rollover-per-year limitation does not apply to direct trustee-to-trustee transfers. You should always consult your tax adviser before you move or attempt to move any funds.

The IRC limits the withdrawal of an employee’s elective deferral Purchase Payments from a Tax-Sheltered Annuity (TSA) contract under IRC 403(b) and certain other Qualified Contracts. Generally, withdrawals can only be made when an Owner:

•

reaches age 59½;

•

severs employment with the employer;

•

dies;

•

birth or adoption of child (subject to limitations);

•

becomes disabled (as defined in the IRC); or

•

experiences a financial hardship (as defined in the IRC).*

In the case of hardship, the Owner can only withdraw Purchase Payments.

Additional plan limitations may also apply.Amounts held in a TSA contract as of December 31, 1988 are not subject to these restrictions except as otherwise imposed by the plan.

There are certain exceptions to these restrictions which are generally based upon the type of investment arrangement, the type of contributions, and the date the contributions were made. Transfers of amounts from one Qualified contract to another investment option under the same plan,

or to another contract or account of the same plan type or from a qualified plan to a state defined benefit plan to purchase service credits are not considered distributions, and thus are not subject to these withdrawal limitations. Such transfers may, however, be subject to limitations under the annuity contract or plan.

Transfers among 403(b) annuities and/or 403(b)(7) custodial accounts generally are subject to rules set out in the plan, the IRC, treasury regulations, IRS pronouncements, and other applicable legal authorities.

Required Minimum Distributions

Information in this section generally does not apply to Non-Qualified contracts.

Failure to satisfy the minimum distribution requirements may result in a tax penalty. You should consult your tax adviser for more information.

Commencement Date

Generally, the IRC requires that you begin taking annual distributions from Qualified annuity contracts by April 1 of the calendar year following the later of (1) the calendar year in which you attain age:

•

Age 75 if you were born January 1, 1960 or later.

•

Age 73 if you were born on or after January 1, 1951, and before January 1, 1960.

•

Age 72 if you were born on or after July 1, 1949, and before January 1, 1951.

•

Age 70 ½ if you were born before July 1, 1949.

or (2) the calendar year in which you sever employment from the employer sponsoring the plan. If you own a traditional IRA, you must begin receiving minimum distributions by April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which you reach age:

•

Age 75 if you were born January 1, 1960 or later.

•

Age 73 if you were born on or after January 1, 1951, and before January 1, 1960.

•

Age 72 if you were born on or after July 1, 1949, and before January 1, 1951.

•

Age 70 ½ if you were born before July 1, 1949.

If you choose to delay your first distribution until the year after the year in which you reach the applicable RMD age or sever employment, as applicable, then you will be required to withdraw your second required minimum distribution on or before December 31 in that same year. For each year thereafter, you must withdraw your required minimum distribution by December 31.

Combining Distributions from Multiple Contracts

If you own more than one IRA, you may be permitted to take your annual distributions in any combination from your IRAs. A similar rule applies if you own more than one TSA. However, you cannot satisfy this distribution requirement for

your IRA contract by taking a distribution from a TSA, and you cannot satisfy the requirement for your TSA by taking a distribution from an IRA.

Automatic Withdrawal Option

You may elect to have the required minimum distribution amount on your contract calculated and withdrawn each year under the automatic withdrawal option. You may select monthly, quarterly, semiannual, or annual withdrawals for this purpose. This service is provided as a courtesy and we do not guarantee the accuracy of our calculations. Accordingly, we recommend you consult your tax adviser concerning your required minimum distribution.

Impact of Optional Benefits

IRS regulations require that the annuity contract value used to determine required minimum distributions include the actuarial present value of other benefits under the contract, such as enhanced death benefits and/or Living Benefits. As a result, if you request a minimum distribution calculation, or if one is otherwise required to be provided, in those specific circumstances where this requirement applies, the calculation may be based upon a value that is greater than your contract value, resulting in a larger required minimum distribution. This regulation does not apply to required minimum distributions made under an irrevocable annuity income option. You should discuss the effect of these regulations with your tax adviser.

Tax Treatment of Death Benefits

The taxable amount of any death benefits paid under the contract are taxable to the Beneficiary. The rules governing the taxation of payments from an annuity contract, as discussed above, generally apply whether the death benefit is paid as lump sum or annuity income payments. Estate taxes may also apply.

Enhanced death benefits are used as investment protection and are not expected to give rise to any adverse tax effects. However, the IRS could take the position that some or all of the charges for these death benefits should be treated as a partial withdrawal from the contract. In that case, the amount of the partial withdrawal may be includible in taxable income and subject to the 10% penalty if the Owner is under 59½, unless another exception applies. You should consult your tax adviser for more information.

If you own a Qualified contract and purchase an enhanced death benefit, the IRS may consider these benefits “incidental death benefits” or “life insurance.” The IRC imposes limits on the amount of the incidental benefits and/or life insurance allowable for Qualified contracts and the employer-sponsored plans under which they are purchased. If the death benefit(s) selected by you are considered to exceed these limits, the benefit(s) could result in taxable income to the Owner of the Qualified contract, and in some cases could adversely impact the qualified status of the Qualified contract or the plan. You should

consult your tax adviser regarding these features and benefits prior to purchasing a contract.

Tax Treatment of Optional Living Benefits

Generally, we will treat amounts credited to the contract value under the optional Living Benefit guarantees, for income tax purposes, as earnings in the contract. Thus, payments of Living Benefits are treated as taxable withdrawals to the extent there are taxable gains in the contract value. Payments in accordance with such guarantees after the contract value has been reduced to zero may be treated for tax purposes as amounts received as an annuity, if the other requirements for such treatment are satisfied. All payments or withdrawals after cost basis has been reduced to zero, whether or not under such a guarantee, will be treated as taxable amounts. If available and you elect an optional Living Benefit, the application of certain tax rules, including those rules relating to distributions from your contract, are not entirely clear. Such benefits are not intended to adversely affect the tax treatment of distributions or of the contract. However, you should be aware that little guidance is available. You should consult a tax adviser before electing an optional Living Benefit.

Contracts Owned by a Trust or Corporation

A Trust or Corporation or other Owner that is not a natural person (“Non-Natural Owner”) that is considering purchasing this contract should consult a tax adviser.

Generally, the IRC does not confer tax-deferred status upon a Non-Qualified contract owned by a Non-Natural Owner for federal income tax purposes. Instead in such cases, the Non-Natural Owner pays tax each year on the contract’s value in excess of the Owner’s cost basis, and the contract’s cost basis is then increased by a like amount. However, this treatment is not applied to a contract held by a trust or other entity as an agent for a natural person nor to contracts held by Qualified Plans.

Withholding

Taxable amounts distributed from annuity contracts are subject to federal and state income tax reporting and withholding. In general, we will withhold federal income tax from the taxable portion of such distribution based on the type of distribution and, in certain cases, the amount of your distribution. An election out of withholding must be made in accordance with the IRS guidance as directed on forms that we provide. If an election out of withholding or election of another amount is not made, withholding is imposed (1) for periodic payments, at the rate that would be imposed if the payments were wages, and the payee was single with no adjustments, or (2) for other distributions, at the rate of 10%. If you are a U.S. person (which includes a resident alien), and your address of record is a non-U.S. address, we

are required to withhold income tax unless payments are directed to your U.S. residential address.

State income tax withholding rules vary and we will withhold based on the rules of your state of residence.

Special tax rules apply to withholding for nonresident aliens, and we generally withhold income tax for nonresident aliens at a 30% rate. A different withholding rate may be applicable to a nonresident alien based on the terms of an existing income tax treaty between the United States and the nonresident alien’s country. You should consult your tax adviser as to the availability of an exemption from, or reduction of, such tax under an applicable income tax treaty, if any.

Any income tax withheld is a credit against your income tax liability. Regardless of the amount withheld by us, you are liable for payment of federal and state income tax on the taxable portion of annuity distributions. You should consult with your tax adviser regarding the payment of the correct amount of these income taxes and potential liability if you fail to pay such taxes.

20% Withholding on Eligible Rollover Distributions

For certain qualified employer sponsored plans, we are required to withhold 20% of the taxable portion of your withdrawal that constitutes an “eligible rollover distribution” for Federal income taxes. An “eligible rollover distribution” is the taxable portion of any amount received by a covered employee from a retirement plan qualified under Sections 401 or 403 or, if from a plan of a governmental employer, under Section 457(b) of the Code, or from a tax-sheltered annuity qualified under Section 403(b) of the Code. This requirement is mandatory and cannot be waived by the owner.

You may avoid withholding if you directly transfer a withdrawal from this Contract to another qualified plan or IRA. Similarly, you may be able to avoid withholding on a transfer into the Contract from an existing qualified plan you may have with another provider by arranging to have the transfer made directly to us. Contract Owners should consult a tax advisor for any questions.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”)

A Contract Owner who is not a “United States person” which is defined to mean:

•

a citizen or resident of the United States

•

a partnership or corporation created or organized in the United States or under the law of the United States or of any state, or the District of Columbia

•

any estate or trust other than a foreign estate or foreign trust (see Internal Revenue Code section 7701(a)(31) for the definition of a foreign estate and a foreign trust)

should be aware that FATCA provides that a 30% withholding tax will be imposed on certain gross payments

(which could include distributions from cash value life insurance or annuity products) made to a foreign entity if such entity fails to provide applicable certifications under a Form W-9, Form W-8 BEN-E, Form W-8IMY, or other applicable form. Certain withholding certifications will remain effective until a change in circumstances makes any information on the form incorrect. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any Form W-8 (including the Form W-8 BEN-E and Form W-8IMY), is only effective for three years from date of signature unless a change in circumstances makes any information on the form incorrect. An entity, for this purpose, will be considered a foreign entity unless it provides an applicable withholding certification to the contrary. The Contract Owner must inform the Company within 30 days of any change in circumstances that makes any information on the form incorrect by furnishing a new IRS Form W-9, Form W-8 BEN-E, Form W-8IMY, or other applicable form. Contract Owners should consult a tax advisor as to the availability of any exemption under an applicable income tax treaty, if any.

Gifts, Pledges and/or Assignments of a Contract

Non-Qualified Contracts

If you transfer ownership of your Non-Qualified contract to a person other than your spouse (or former spouse incident to divorce) as a gift you will pay federal income tax on the contract’s cash value to the extent it exceeds your cost basis. The recipient’s cost basis will be increased by the amount on which you will pay federal taxes. In addition, the IRC treats any assignment or pledge (or agreement to assign or pledge) of any portion of a Non-Qualified contract as a withdrawal.

Qualified Contracts

The IRC prohibits Qualified annuity contracts including IRAs from being transferred, assigned or pledged as security for a loan.

This prohibition, however, generally does not apply to loans under an employer-sponsored plan (including loans from the annuity contract) that satisfy certain requirements, provided that:

•

the plan is not an unfunded deferred compensation plan; and

•

the plan funding vehicle is not an IRA.

Another exception to this rule includes an assignment pursuant to a domestic relations order meeting the requirements of the plan or arrangement under which the contract is issued (for many plans, a Qualified Domestic Relations Order, or QDRO), or, in the case of an IRA, pursuant to a decree of divorce or separation maintenance or a written instrument incident to such decree. You should consult a tax advisor as to the availability of these exceptions.

Diversification and Investor Control

Diversification

For a contract to be treated as a variable annuity for Federal income tax purposes, the underlying investments under the variable annuity must be “adequately diversified”. Treasury Regulations provide standards that must be met to comply with the rules. Under the regulations an investment portfolio will be deemed adequately diversified if (1) no more than 55% of the value of the total assets of the portfolio is represented by any one investment; (2) no more than 70% of the value of the total assets of the portfolio is represented by any two investments; (3) no more than 80% of the value of the total assets of the portfolio is represented by any three investments; and (4) no more than 90% of the value of the total assets of the portfolio is represented by any four investments. For purposes of determining whether or not the diversification standards imposed on the underlying assets of variable contracts by Section 817(h) of the Code have been met, “each United States government agency or instrumentality shall be treated as a separate issuer.” If the variable annuity fails to comply with these diversification standards, you could be required to pay tax currently on the excess of the Contract Value over the contract Purchase Payments. We expect that the manager of the Underlying Funds monitors the Funds so as to comply with these Treasury Regulations.

These requirements generally do not apply to Qualified contracts, which are considered “Pension Plan Contracts” for purposes of these Code requirements.

Investor Control

These investor control limitations generally do not apply to Qualified contracts, which are referred to as “Pension Plan Contracts” for purposes of this rule, although the limitations could be applied to Qualified contracts in the future.

Under certain circumstances, you, and not the Company, could be treated as the owner of the Underlying Funds under your Non-Qualified contract, based on the degree of control you exercise over the underlying investments. If this occurs, you may be currently taxed on income and gains attributable to the assets under the contract.

There is little guidance in this area, and the determination of whether you possess sufficient incidents of ownership over Variable Portfolio assets to be deemed the owner of the Underlying Funds depends on all of the relevant facts and circumstances. However, IRS Revenue Ruling 2003-91 provides that an annuity owner’s ability to choose among general investment strategies either at the time of the initial purchase or thereafter, does not constitute control sufficient to cause the contract holder to be treated as the owner of the Variable Portfolios. The Revenue Ruling provides that if, based on all the facts and circumstances, you do not have direct or indirect control over the Separate Account or any Variable Portfolio asset, then you do not possess sufficient incidents of ownership over the assets supporting the annuity to be deemed the owner of the assets for federal income tax purposes. We do not know what limits may be

set by the IRS in any future guidance that it may issue and whether such limits will apply to existing contracts.

While we believe the contract does not give you investment control over the Underlying Funds, we reserve the right to modify the contract as necessary in an attempt to prevent you from being considered as the owner of the assets of the contract for purposes of the Code.

Our Taxes

The Company is taxed as a life insurance company under the Code. For federal income tax purposes, the Separate Account is not a separate entity from the Company and its operations form a part of the Company. We are entitled to certain tax benefits related to the investment of company assets, including assets of the Separate Account, which may include the foreign tax credit and the corporate dividends received deduction. These potential benefits are not passed back to you, since we are the owner of the assets from which tax benefits may be derived.

Other Information

The Distributor

Corebridge Capital Services, Inc., 30 Hudson Street, 16th Floor, Jersey City, NJ 07302, distributes the contracts. Corebridge Capital Services, Inc., an affiliate under common control with the Company, is a registered broker dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). No underwriting fees are retained by Corebridge Capital Services, Inc. in connection with the distribution of the contracts.

The Company

The Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company (“VALIC”) is a life insurance company organized under the laws of the state of Texas. Its home office is 2929 Allen Parkway, Houston, Texas 77019.

Operation of the Company

The operations of the Company are influenced by many factors, including general economic conditions, monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government, and policies of state and other regulatory authorities. The level of sales of the Company’s financial and insurance products is influenced by many factors, including general market rates of interest, the strength, weakness and volatility of equity markets, terms and conditions of competing financial and insurance products and the relative value of such brands.

The Company is exposed to market risk, interest rate risk, contract Owner behavior risk and mortality/longevity risk. Market volatility may result in increased risks related to guaranteed death and Living Benefits on the Company’s financial and insurance products, as well as reduced fee income in the case of assets held in separate accounts,

where applicable. These guaranteed benefits are sensitive to equity market and other conditions. The Company primarily uses capital market hedging strategies to help cover the risk of paying guaranteed Living Benefits in excess of account values as a result of significant downturns in equity markets or as a result of other factors. The Company has treaties to reinsure a portion of the guaranteed minimum income benefits and guaranteed death benefits for equity and mortality risk on some of its older contracts. Such risk mitigation may or may not reduce the volatility of net income and capital and surplus resulting from equity market volatility.

The Company is regulated for the benefit of contract Owners by the insurance regulator in its state of domicile; and also by all state insurance departments where it is licensed to conduct business. The Company is required by its regulators to hold a specified amount of reserves in order to meet its contractual obligations to contract Owners. Insurance regulations also require the Company to maintain additional surplus to protect against a financial impairment the amount of which is based on the risks inherent in the Company’s operations.

The Separate Account

VALIC Separate Account A is a separate account of VALIC, under Texas law. It may be used to support the contract and other variable annuity contracts, and used for other permitted purposes.

The Separate Account is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Purchase Payments you make that are allocated to the Variable Portfolios are invested in the Separate Account. The Company owns the assets in the Separate Account and invests them on your behalf, according to your instructions. Purchase Payments invested in the Separate Account are not guaranteed and will fluctuate with the value of the Variable Portfolios you select. Therefore, you assume all of the investment risk for contract value allocated to the Variable Portfolios. These assets are kept separate from our General Account and may not be charged with liabilities arising from any other business we may conduct. Additionally, income gains and losses (realized and unrealized) resulting from assets in the Separate Account are credited to or charged against the Separate Account without regard to other income gains or losses of the Company.

You benefit from dividends received by the Separate Account through an increase in your unit value. The Company expects to benefit from these dividends through tax credits and corporate dividends received deductions; however, these corporate deductions are not passed back to the Separate Account or to contract Owners.

The General Account

Obligations that are paid out of the Company’s general account (“General Account”) include any amounts you have allocated to available Fixed Accounts and the Secure Value Account, including any interest credited thereon, and amounts owed under your contract for death and/or Living Benefits which are in excess of portions of contract value allocated to the Variable Portfolios. The obligations and guarantees under the contract are the sole responsibility of the Company. Therefore, payments of these obligations are subject to our financial strength and claims paying ability, and our long term ability to make such payments.

The General Account assets are invested in accordance with applicable state regulation. These assets are exposed to the typical risks normally associated with a portfolio of fixed income securities, namely interest rate, option, liquidity and credit risk. The Company manages its exposure to these risks by, among other things, closely monitoring and matching the duration and cash flows of its assets and liabilities, monitoring or limiting prepayment and extension risk in its portfolio, maintaining a large percentage of its portfolio in highly liquid securities and engaging in a disciplined process of underwriting, reviewing and monitoring credit risk. With respect to the Living Benefits available in your contract, we also manage interest rate and certain market risk through a hedging strategy in the portfolio and we may require that those who elect a Living Benefit allocate their Purchase Payments in accordance with specified investment parameters.

Legal Proceedings

There are no pending legal proceedings affecting the Separate Account. Various federal, state or other regulatory agencies may from time to time review, examine or inquire into the operations, practices and procedures of the Company, such as through financial examinations, subpoenas, investigations, market conduct exams or other regulatory inquiries. Based on the current status of pending regulatory examinations, investigations and inquiries involving the Company, the Company believes that none of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the ability of the principal underwriter to perform its contract with the Registrant or of the depositor to meet its obligations under the variable annuity contracts.

Various lawsuits against the Company have arisen in the ordinary course of business. As of the date of this prospectus, the Company believes that none of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the ability of the principal underwriter to perform its contract with the Registrant or of the depositor to meet its obligations under the variable annuity contracts.

Appendix C – Formula and Examples of Calculations of the Polaris Income MAX
and Polaris Income Plus DAILY Flex Fee

The fee for Polaris Income Max and Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex is assessed against the Income Base and deducted from the contract value at the end of each Benefit Quarter.

Polaris Income Max and Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex Fee

Number of Covered Persons	Maximum Annual Fee Rate	Minimum Annual Fee Rate	Maximum Annualized Fee Rate Decrease or Increase Each Benefit Quarter*
One Covered Person	2.50%	0.60%	±0.40%
Two Covered Persons	2.50%	0.60%	±0.40%

The fee rate can decrease or increase no more than 0.10% each quarter (0.40%/4). If you change your Income Option election on the Activation Date, the quarterly fee can increase no more than 0.1625% [(.40% + 0.25%)/4] on the first Benefit Quarter Anniversary following the Activation Date.

Please see the Rate Sheet Supplement that must accompany this prospectus for the applicable initial annual fee rate.

Lifetime Income Option Change Fee*

0.25%

The sum of the Living Benefit fee and Lifetime Income Option Change fee cannot be more than 0.625% (2.50%/4) for each Benefit Quarter. The sum of the Living Benefit feature fee rate and Lifetime Income Option Change fee rate cannot exceed the Maximum Annual Fee Rate stated in the table above.

The initial annual fee rate is guaranteed for the first Benefit Year. Subsequently, the fee rate may change quarterly subject to the parameters identified in the table above. Any fee rate adjustment is based on the non-discretionary formula stated below which is tied to the change in the Volatility Index (“VIX”), an index of market volatility reported by the Chicago Board Options Exchange. The fee rate is based on the quarterly average of the daily VIX squared values (VIX multiplied by VIX on the same day) as of Market Close on each day during the Benefit Quarter for which the fee is being calculated (the “Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2)”). In general, as the Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2) decreases or increases, your fee rate will decrease or increase accordingly, subject to the maximums and minimums identified in the table above.

If you change your Lifetime Income Option on the Activation Date, the Lifetime Income Option Change fee will be assessed and deducted from your contract value starting on the first Benefit Quarter Anniversary following the Activation Date and quarterly thereafter. The fee is calculated as a percentage of the Income Base. The sum of the Living Benefit fee and Lifetime Income Option Change fee cannot exceed the Maximum Annual Fee Rate shown in the table above.

The non-discretionary formula used in the calculation of the annual fee rate applicable after the first Benefit Year is:

Initial Annual Fee Rate + {0.05% x [Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2)/33 – 10]}

You may find the value of the VIX for any given day by going to the Chicago Board Options Exchange website, www.cboe.com.

Please see APPENDIX G — LIVING BENEFIT FOR CONTRACTS ISSUED PRIOR TO MAY 1, 2023 for applicable fee rates if your contract was issued prior to May 1, 2023. If you purchased your contract on or after May 1, 2023, please see APPENDIX J - LIVING BENEFIT RATES FOR CONTRACTS ISSUED ON OR AFTER MAY 1, 2023

Example

Assumptions:

•

Polaris Income Max Lifetime Income Option 1 for one Covered Person was elected at issue.

•

The initial annual fee rate is 1.45%

•

The assumed Quarterly Averages (Daily VIX2) are as displayed from the table below:

Benefit Quarter	Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2)	Calculated Formula Value*	Annual Fee Rate	Quarterly Fee Rate**
1st	525.71	N/A	1.45%	0.3625%
2nd	412.12	N/A	1.45%	0. 3625%
3rd	770.25	N/A	1.45%	0.3625%
4th	573.97	N/A	1.45%	0.3625%
5th	204.42	1.26%	1.26%	0.3150%

The Calculated Formula Value equals the number resulting from the application of the formula stated above. This amount is compared to the minimum and maximum fee and the maximum quarterly fee increase or decrease to determine the annual fee rate each quarter.

The Quarterly Fee Rate is the Annual Fee Rate divided by 4.

The Annual Fee Rates and Quarter Fee Rates are calculated as follows:

In the 5th Benefit Quarter, the Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2) is 204.42. We calculate the Annual Fee Rate in the 5th Benefit Quarter as follows:

Step 1:

Calculation of the Annual Fee Rate

Initial Annual Fee Rate + {0.05% x [Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2)/33 – 10]}

1.45% + {0.05% x [204.42/33 – 10]}

1.45% + [0.05% x (–3.81)]

1.45% + (–0.19%) = 1.26% (Annual Fee Rate)

C-1

Step 2:

Determine whether the Annual Fee Rate calculated in Step 1 is within the Maximum or Minimum Annual Fee Rate and within the Maximum Quarterly Annualized Fee Rate Increase or Decrease

1.45% – 1.26% = 0.19% which is within 0.40% of the previous Annual Fee Rate (1.45%).

1.26% is higher than the Minimum Annual Fee Rate (0.60%) and is lower than Maximum Annual Fee Rate (2.50%)

Therefore, the Annual Fee Rate for the 5th Benefit Quarter is 1.26%

The Quarterly Fee Rate is 0.3150% (or 1.26% divided by 4).

After the 5th Benefit Quarter, until the 12th Benefit Quarter, the assumed Quarterly Averages (Daily VIX2) are as displayed from the table below:

Benefit Quarter	Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2)	Calculated Formula Value	Annual Fee Rate	Quarterly Fee Rate
6th	351.93	1.48%	1.48%	0.3700%
7th	307.03	1.42%	1.42%	0.3550%
8th	602.30	1.86%	1.82%	0.4550%
9th	698.25	2.01%	2.01%	0.5025%
10th	323.74	1.44%	1.61%	0.4025%
11th	525.72	1.75%	1.75%	0.4375%
12th	765.45	2.11%	2.11%	0.5275%

The Annual Fee Rates and Quarterly Fee Rates are calculated as follows:

In the 8th Benefit Quarter, the Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2) increases to 602.30. We calculate the Annual Fee Rate on the 8th Benefit Quarter Anniversary as follows:

Step 1:

Calculation of the Annual Fee Rate

Initial Annual Fee Rate + {0.05% x [Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2)/33 – 10]}

1.45% + {0.05% x [602.30/33 – 10]}

1.45% + [0.05% x (8.25)]

1.% + 0.41% = 1.86% (Annual Fee Rate)

Step 2:

Determine whether the Annual Fee Rate calculated in Step 1 is within the Maximum or Minimum Annual Fee Rate and within the Maximum Quarterly Annualized Fee Rate Increase or Decrease

1.86% – 1.42% = 0.44% which is more than 0.40% higher of the previous Annual Fee Rate of 1.42%.

The Annual Fee Rate is adjusted to be exactly 0.40% higher than the previous Annual Fee Rate, which is 1.82% (1.42% + 0.40%). This is within the Minimum and Maximum Annual Fee Rates.

Therefore, the Quarterly Fee Rate is 0.4550% (or 1.82% divided by 4).

In the 10th Benefit Quarter, the Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2) decreases to 323.74. We calculate the Annual Fee Rate on the 10th Benefit Quarter Anniversary as follows:

Step 1:

Calculation of the Annual Fee Rate

Initial Annual Fee Rate + {0.05% x [Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2)/33 – 10]}

1.45% + {0.05% x [323.74/33 – 10]}

1.45% + [0.05% x (–0.19)]

1.45% + (–0.01%) = 1.44% (Annual Fee Rate)

Step 2:

Determine whether the Annual Fee Rate calculated in Step 1 is within the Maximum or Minimum Annual Fee Rate and within the Maximum Quarterly Annualized Fee Rate Increase or Decrease

2.01% – 1.44% = 0.57% which is more than 0.40% Quarterly Annualized Fee Rate Decrease from the previous Annual Fee Rate of 2.01%.

The Annual Fee Rate is adjusted to be exactly 0.40% lower than the previous Annual Fee Rate, which is 1.61% (2.01% – 0.40%).

Therefore, the Quarterly Fee Rate is 0.4025% (or 1.61% divided by 4).

Assume that Lifetime Income is activated and Lifetime Income Option 1 was changed to Lifetime Income Option 2 during the 13th Benefit Quarter.

The assumed Quarterly Averages (Daily VIX2) are as follows:

Benefit Quarter	Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2)	Calculated Formula Value	Annual Fee Rate	Quarterly Fee Rate	Annual Lifetime Income Option Change Fee	Quarterly Lifetime Income Option Change Fee
12th	765.45	2.11%	2.11%	0.5275%	N/A	N/A
13th	957.12	2.40%	2.50%	0.6250%	0.10%	0.0250%
14th	1,025.43	2.50%	2.50%	0.6250%	0.00%	0.0000%
15th	721.89	2.04%	2.35%	0.5875%	0.25%	0.0625%
16th	207.38	1.26%	1.95%	0.4875%	0.25%	0.0625%

On every Benefit Quarter after the 14th, the combined Annual Fee Rate, which includes the Income Option Change Fee, will continue to increase or decrease depending on the movement of the Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2), subject to the Minimum and Maximum Annual Fee Rates shown above.

C-2

In the 13th Benefit Quarter, the Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2) increases to 957.12. We calculate the Annual Fee Rate on the 13th Benefit Quarter Anniversary as follows:

Step 1:

Calculation of the Annual Fee Rate

Initial Annual Fee Rate + {0.05% x [Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2)/33 – 10]}

1.45% + {0.05% x [957.12/33 – 10]}

1.45% + (0.05% x 19)

1.45% + 0.95% = 2.40% (Annual Fee Rate without Lifetime Income Option Change Fee)

Step 2:Determine whether the Annual Fee Rate calculated in Step 1 is within the Maximum or Minimum Annual Fee Rate and within the Maximum Quarterly Annualized Fee Rate Increase of Decrease

2.40% - 2.11% = 0.29% which is within 0.40% of the previous Annual Fee Rate (2.11%). This is within the Minimum and Maximum Annual Fee Rates.

Step 3:

Combine the Annual Fee Rate calculated in Step 2 with the Lifetime Income Option Change Fee Rate of 0.25% to determine that it is within the Maximum Annual Fee Rate.

2.40% + 0.25% = 2.65% which is within the Maximum Annual fee Rate (2.50%).

The sum of the Living Benefit fee and the Lifetime Income Option Change fee is adjusted to be 2.50%. Therefore, the Lifetime Income Option Change fee charged is 0.10% (2.50% - 2.40%), and the Quarterly Fee Rate is 0.6250% (or 2.50% divided by 4).

In the 14th Benefit Quarter, the Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2) increases to 1,025.43. We calculate the Annual Fee Rate on the 14th Benefit Quarter Anniversary as follows:

Step 1:

Calculation of the Annual Fee Rate

Initial Annual Fee Rate + {0.05% x [Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2)/33 – 10]}

1.45% + {0.05% x [1,025.43/33 – 10]}

1.45% + (0.05% x 21.07)

1.45% + 1.05% = 2.50% (Annual Fee Rate without Lifetime Income Option Change Fee)

Step 2:Determine whether the Annual Fee Rate calculated in Step 1 is within the Maximum or Minimum Annual Fee Rate and within the Maximum Quarterly Annualized Fee Rate Increase of Decrease

2.50% - 2.50% = 0.00% which is within 0.40% of the previous Annual Fee Rate (2.50%).

Step 3:

Combine the Annual Fee Rate calculated in Step 2 with the Lifetime Income Option Change Fee Rate of 0.25% to determine that it is within the Maximum Annual Fee Rate.

2.50% + 0.25% = 2.75% which is higher than the Maximum Annual fee Rate (2.50%). The sum of the Living Benefit fee and the Lifetime Income Option Change fee is adjusted to be 2.50%.

Therefore, the Lifetime Income Option Change fee charged is 0.00% (2.50% - 2.50%), and the Quarterly Fee Rate is 0.6250% (or 2.50% divided by 4).

After the 14th Benefit Quarter, the combined Annual Fee Rate will continue to increase or decrease depending on the movement of the Quarterly Average (Daily VIX2). If your contract value falls to zero, the fee will no longer be deducted.

C-3

Appendix D – Optional Living Benefits Examples

The following examples demonstrate how increases to the Income Base and withdrawals taken from the contract affect the values of the currently offered Living Benefits – Polaris Income Max and Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex. The examples are based on a hypothetical contract over an extended period of time and do not assume any specific rate of return nor do they represent how your contract will actually perform.

Examples 1-7 below assume election of Polaris Income Max Living Benefit for one Covered Person based on the assumptions shown below. Your percentages may differ based on the Income Option you elected and the Covered Person's age on the Activation Date. These examples are intended to demonstrate how the living benefits are calculated. Please see the Rate Sheet Supplement that must accompany this prospectus for the Income Credit Percentage, Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage and Protected Income Payment Percentage applicable to your contract.

Example 1: Initial Values

The values shown below are based on the following assumptions:

•

Benefit Effective Date = contract issue date

•

Covered Person = Owner age 65 on the Benefit Effective Date

•

Initial Purchase Payment = $100,000

•

Income Credit Percentage = 5.25%

•

Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage = 6.25%

Values as of	Purchase Payments Invested	Contract Value	Income Base	Income Credit Base	Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount upon Activation
Benefit Effective Date	$100,000	$100,000	$100,000	$100,000	$6,250

•

Income Base = Initial Purchase Payment = $100,000

•

Income Credit Base = Initial Purchase Payment = $100,000

•

Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount = Income Base x Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage

= $100,000 x 6.25% = $6,250, if Lifetime Income is activated

Example 2: Impact of Adding Subsequent Purchase Payments and Attaining Higher Anniversary Values

The values shown below are based on the assumptions stated in Example 1 above, in addition to the following:

•

Subsequent Purchase Payment invested in the first Benefit Year = $60,000.

•

Subsequent Purchase Payment invested in the second Benefit Year = $90,000.

•

No withdrawals taken in the first 2 Benefit Years.

Values as of	Purchase Payment Invested	Assumed Contract Value	Anniversary Value	Income Base	Income Credit Base	Income Credit	Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount upon Activation
Benefit Effective Date	$100,000	$100,000	—	$100,000	$100,000	—	$6,250
Year 1	$60,000	$165,000	—	$160,000	$160,000	—	$10,000
1st Anniversary	—	$170,000	$170,000	$170,000	$170,000	$8,400	$10,625
Year 2	$90,000	$255,000	—	$260,000	$260,000	—	$16,250
2nd Anniversary	—	$287,000	$287,000	$287,000	$287,000	$13,650	$17,938

The values of the feature are impacted by adding subsequent Purchase Payments and attaining Higher Anniversary Values as follows:

•

The Income Base, Income Credit Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (“MAWA”) are recalculated at the time each subsequent Purchase Payment is received.

D-1

•

The Income Base and Income Credit Base are increased to a Higher Anniversary Value on each Benefit Year Anniversary if the Anniversary Value is greater than the current Income Base plus the Income Credit; and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (“MAWA”) is recalculated based on the value of the new Income Base, available only if Lifetime Income is activated.

○

In year 1, a subsequent Purchase Payment of $60,000 was added. The Income Base and Income Credit Base were increased to $160,000 ($100,000 + $60,000); and the MAWA was increased to $10,000 ($160,000 x 6.25%).

○

On the 1st Benefit Year Anniversary, the Income Base and Income Credit Base were increased to $170,000 ($170,000 is greater than $160,000 + $8,400 Income Credit); and the MAWA was increased to $10,625 ($170,000 x 6.25%).

○

In year 2, a subsequent Purchase Payment of $90,000 was added. The Income Base and Income Credit Base were increased to $260,000 ($170,000 + $90,000); and the MAWA was increased to $16,250 ($260,000 x 6.25%).

○

On the 2nd Benefit Year Anniversary, the Income Base and Income Credit Base were increased to $287,000 ($287,000 is greater than $260,000 + $13,650 Income Credit); and the MAWA was increased to $17,938 ($287,000 x 6.25%).

Example 3: Impact of Income Credit on Income Base and Income Credit Base

The values shown below are based on the assumptions stated in Examples 1 and 2 above, in addition to the following:

•

An Income Credit was added to the Income Base on the third Benefit Year Anniversary, prior to the Activation Date.

As of	Assumed Contract Value	Withdrawal Taken	Anniversary Value	Income Base	Income Credit Base	Income Credit	Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount upon Activation
2nd Anniversary	$287,000	—	$287,000	$287,000	$287,000	$13,650	$17,938
3rd Anniversary	$300,000	—	$300,000	$302,068	$287,000	$15,068	$18,879

•

When the Income Base is increased due to the addition of the Income Credit, the Income Credit Base is not increased.

Note: The Income Credit Base is increased by the addition of the subsequent Purchase Payments and when the Income Base is increased to a Higher Anniversary Value (as shown in Example 2 above).

Example 4: Impact of Taking Withdrawals prior to the Activation Date

The values shown below are based on the assumptions stated in Examples 1, 2, and 3 above, in addition to the following:

•

A withdrawal of $5,000 was taken in the fourth Benefit Year, prior to the Activation Date.

•

Assumed Contract Value is prior to the Withdrawal Taken.

As of	Assumed Contract Value	Withdrawal Taken	Anniversary Value	Income Base	Income Credit Base	Income Credit	Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount upon Activation
3rd Anniversary	$300,000	—	$300,000	$302,068	$287,000	$15,068	$18,879
Year 4	$305,000	$5,000	—	$279,116	$282,295	—	$18,570
4th Anniversary	$312,000	—	$312,000	$312,000	$14,820	$14,820	$19,500

•

The Income Base and Income Credit Base are reduced in the same proportion by which the contract value is reduced by the pre-Income Activation withdrawal amount.

○

In year 4, the reduction proportion was 1.6393% ($5,000/$305,000); the reduced Income Base was $297,116 ($302,068 x [1 – 1.6393%] and Income Credit Base was $282,295 ($287,000 x [1 – 1.6393%]).

○

On the 4th Benefit Year Anniversary, the Income Base and Income Credit Base were increased to $312,000 (Anniversary Value $312,000 is greater than $297,116 + $14,820 Income Credit) and the MAWA was increased to $19,500 ($312,000 x 6.25%).

Example 5: Impact of Taking Withdrawals up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount after the Activation Date

The values shown below are based on the assumptions stated in Examples 1, 2, 3 and 4 above, in addition to the following:

•

A withdrawal of 100% of MAWA was taken in the fifth Benefit Year, after the Activation Date.

As of	Assumed Contract Value	Withdrawal Taken	Anniversary Value	Income Base	Income Credit Base	Income Credit	Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount
4th Anniversary	$312,000	—	$312,000	$312,000	$312,000	$14,820	$19,500
Year 5	$302,000	$19,500	—	$312,000	—	—	$19,500
5th Anniversary	$305,000	—	$305,000	$312,000	—	—	$19,500

•

In year 5, a Lifetime Income amount of $19,500 was withdrawn.

The values of the feature are impacted by the Lifetime Income withdrawal taken as follows:

•

The Income Base is not reduced because the amount of the Lifetime Income withdrawal taken was less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (“MAWA”).

•

No Income Credit is available after the Activation Date.

Example 6: Impact of Taking Excess Withdrawals (in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount) after the Activation Date

The values shown below are based on the assumptions stated in Examples 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 above, in addition to the following:

•

Withdrawals of 8% of Income Base taken in the sixth and seventh Benefit Years.

As of	Assumed Contract Value	Withdrawal Taken	Anniversary Value	Income Base	Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount
5th Anniversary	$305,000	—	$305,000	$312,000	$19,500
Year 6	$305,000	$24,960	—	$306,033	$19,127
6th Anniversary	$280,000	—	$290,000	$306,033	$19,127

7th Anniversary	$260,000	—	$230,000	$299,982	$18,749

The values of the feature are impacted by taking withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (“MAWA”) after the Activation Date as follows:

•

The Income Base is reduced by the same proportion by which the contract value is reduced by the amount in excess of the MAWA.

○

In year 6, the reduction proportion was 1.9124% ([$24,960 - $19,500] / [$305,000 - $19,500]); the Income Base was reduced to $306,033 ($312,000 x [1 – 1.9124%]); and the MAWA was reduced to $19,127 ($306,033 x 6.25%).

○

In year 7, the reduction proportion was 1.9772% ([$24,483 – $19,127] / [$290,000 - $19,127]); the Income Base was reduced to $299,982 ($306,033 x [1 – 1.9772%]); and the MAWA was reduced to $18,749 ($299,982 x 6.25%).

•

The MAWA is recalculated based on the reduced Income Base.

The values shown below are based on the assumptions stated in Examples 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 above, in addition to the following:

•

Contract values as shown below and reduced to $0 in Year 11 due to fees charged and market conditions.

•

Protected Income Payment Percentage = 4.0%

•

No withdrawals taken after the seventh Benefit Year.

Values as of	Assumed Contract Value	Anniversary Value	Income Base	Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount	Protected Income Payment

11th Anniversary	$0	$0	$299,982	—	$11,999

•

The Protected Income Payment of $11,999 ($299,982 x 4%) will be paid annually for the lifetime of the Covered Person.

Examples 8-13 below assume election of Polaris Income Daily Flex Living Benefit for one Covered Person based on the assumptions shown below. Your percentages may differ based on the Income Option you elected and the Covered Person's age on the Activation Date. These examples are intended to demonstrate how the living benefits are calculated. Please see the Rate Sheet Supplement that must accompany this prospectus for the Minimum Income Base Percentage, Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage and the Protected Income Payment Percentage applicable to your contract.

Example 8: Initial Values

The values shown below are based on the following assumptions:

•

Benefit Effective Date = contract issue date

•

Covered Person = Owner age 65 on the Benefit Effective Date

•

Initial Purchase Payment = $100,000

•

Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage = 6.00%

Value as of	Purchase Payments Invested	Contract Value	Minimum Income Base	Income Base	Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount upon Activation
Benefit Effective Date	$100,000	$100,000	$100,000	$100,000	$6,000

•

Minimum Income Base = Income Base = Initial Purchase Payment = $100,000

•

Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount = Income Base x Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage

= $100,000 x 6.00% = $6,000, if Lifetime Income is activated

Example 9: Impact of Increase in Income Base due to Daily Step-up Values, Adding Subsequent Purchase Payments, and Minimum Income Base at Benefit Year Anniversaries prior to the Activation Date

The values shown below are based on the assumptions stated in Example 8 above, in addition to the following:

•

Subsequent Purchase Payment invested in the 1st Benefit Year = $60,000

•

Subsequent Purchase Payment invested in the 2nd Benefit Year = $90,000

•

No withdrawals taken in the first 2 Benefit Years

•

Annual Minimum Income Base Percentage = 5.00%

D-4

•

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amounts in this example are only available if Lifetime Income is activated

Values as of	Purchase Payment Invested	Assumed Contract Value	Step-up Value	Minimum Income Base	Income Base	Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount upon Activation
Benefit Effective Date	$100,000	$100,000	—	$100,000	$100,000	$6,000

2nd Anniversary	—	$279,000	—	$270,500	$280,000	$16,800

The values of the feature are impacted by attaining the daily Step-up Values, adding subsequent Purchase Payments, and comparing to the Minimum Income Base at Benefit Year Anniversaries when no Lifetime Income withdrawals have been taken as follows:

•

If no withdrawals have been taken, the Income Base is increased to the Step-up Values on a daily basis and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (“MAWA”) is recalculated based on the new Income Base, only available after Lifetime Income is activated.

•

The Income Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (“MAWA”) are recalculated at the time each subsequent Purchase Payment is received.

○

In year 1 – day 25, the Income Base was increased to the Step-up Value of $102,000 (Contract Value $102,000 is greater than the current Income Base $100,000) and the MAWA was increased to $6,120 ($102,000 x 6.00%).

○

In year 1 – day 105, the Income Base was increased to the Step-up Value of $105,000 (Contract Value $105,000 is greater than the current Income Base $102,000) and the MAWA was increased to $6,300 ($105,000 x 6.00%)

○

In year 1 – day 200, the Minimum Income Base was increased to $160,000 ($100,000 + $60,000 subsequent Purchase Payment), the Income Base was increased to $165,000 ($105,000 + $60,000 subsequent Purchase Payment) and the MAWA was increased to $9,900 ($165,000 x 6.00%).

•

While no Lifetime Income withdrawals have been taken, the Income Base continues to be increased to the Step-up Values on a daily basis and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (“MAWA”) is recalculated based on the new Income Base. At Benefit Year Anniversaries, the Income Base can also step up to the Minimum Income Base if the Minimum Income Base is greater than the current Income Base.

○

In year 1 – day 300, the Income Base was increased to the Step-up Value of $166,000 (Contract Value $166,000 is greater than the current Income Base $165,000) and the MAWA was increased to $9,960 ($166,000 x 6.00%).

○

On the 1st Benefit Year Anniversary, the Income Base was increased to the Minimum Income Base of $168,000 ($160,000 x 105%, Minimum Income Base $168,000 is greater than both Step-Up Value $167,000 and current Income Base $166,000) and the MAWA was increased to $10,080 ($168,000 x 6.00%).

○

In year 2 – day 180, the Income Base was increased to $258,000 ($168,000 + $90,000 subsequent Purchase Payment), and the MAWA was increased to $15,480 ($258,000 x 6.00%).

○

In year 2 – day 250, the Income Base was increased to the Step-up Value of $280,000 (Contract Value $280,000 is greater than the current Income Base $258,000) and the MAWA was increased to $16,800 ($280,000 x 6.00%).

○

On the 2nd Benefit Year Anniversary, the Income Base remained unchanged at $280,000 (current Income Base $280,000 is greater than Minimum Income Base $270,500 ($160,000 1st year Purchase Payments x 110% + $90,000 2nd year Purchase Payment x 105%)) and the MAWA also remained unchanged at $16,800.

If your contract was issued between May 1, 2017 and September 8, 2019 and you did not elect the Polaris Income Plus Flex or Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex Living Benefit, please see APPENDIX I - DEATH BENEFITS FOLLOWING SPOUSAL CONTINUATION BETWEEN MAY 1, 2017 AND SEPTEMBER 8, 2019.

Please see this Appendix for the death benefits following spousal continuation applicable to your contract if:

•

your contract was issued on or after September 9, 2019; or

•

your contract was issued between May 1, 2019 and September 8, 2019 and you elected either the Polaris Income Plus Flex or Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex Living Benefit.

The following details the Contract Value, Return of Purchase Payment and Maximum Anniversary Value death benefits payable upon the Continuing Spouse’s death. The death benefit we will pay to the new Beneficiary chosen by the Continuing Spouse varies depending on the death benefit option elected by the original Owner of the contract, whether a Living Benefit was elected, the age of the Continuing Spouse as of the Continuation Date and the Continuing Spouse’s date of death.

Capitalized terms used in this Appendix have the same meaning as they have in the prospectus.

We define “Continuation Net Purchase Payments” as Net Purchase Payments made on or after the Continuation Date. For the purpose of calculating Continuation Net Purchase Payments, the amount that equals the contract value on the Continuation Date, including the Continuation Contribution, is considered the initial Continuation Purchase Payment. We define “Continuation Purchase Payments” as Purchase Payments made on or after the Continuation Date.

The term “withdrawals” as used in describing the death benefits is defined as withdrawals and the fees and charges applicable to those withdrawals.

•

If cumulative withdrawals for the current contract year are taken prior to the Continuing Spouse’s 81st birthday and are less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount, the amount of adjustment will equal the amount of each withdrawal.

•

If cumulative withdrawals for the current contract year are taken prior to the Continuing Spouse’s 81st birthday and are in excess of the Maximum

Annual Withdrawal Amount, the contract value and the death benefit are first reduced by the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount. The resulting death benefit is further adjusted by the withdrawal amount in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (“Excess Withdrawal”) by the percentage by which the Excess Withdrawal reduced the resulting contract value.

•

If a withdrawal is taken on or after the Continuing Spouse’s 81st birthday, the amount of adjustment is determined by the percentage by which the withdrawal reduced the contract value.

Contract Value Death Benefit Payable Upon Continuing Spouse’s Death

The Contract Value death benefit, included in the contract for no additional fee, will be equal to the contract value on the business day during which we receive all required documentation.

The Return of Purchase Payment death benefit and the Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit, if elected, are calculated differently depending on whether the original Owner had elected a Living Benefit, described above.

Return of Purchase Payment and Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit Payable Upon Continuing Spouse’s Death:

The following describes the Return of Purchase Payment death benefit and the Maximum Anniversary Value death benefit without election of a Living Benefit:

Return of Purchase Payment death benefit

If the Continuing Spouse is age 85 or younger on the Continuation Date, the death benefit will be the greater of:

G-1

For Polaris Income Max, the current Anniversary Value that is greater than the current Income Base.

Income Base

Income Credit

Applicable to Polaris Income Max only, the Income Credit is an amount that may be added to the Income Base prior to the Activation Date as shown in the following table:

Optional Living Benefit	Income Credit (as a percentage of the Income Credit Base)	Income Credit Availability Prior to the Activation Date
Polaris Income Max	7.00% (For contracts issued on or after July 25, 2022) 5.25% (For contracts issued prior to July 25, 2022)	The Income Credit base and Income Base are reduced proportionately for any withdrawals taken prior to the Activation Date
Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex	Not available

Income Credit Base

Applicable to Polaris Income Max only, the Income Credit Base is used solely as a basis for calculating the Income Credit prior to the Activation Date.

How does Polaris Income Max work?

G-2

Polaris Income Max allows you flexibility to make a one-time change to your initial elections of: 1) Covered Person(s) (the “Covered Person Change”) and 2) Income Options (the “Income Option Change”) on the Activation Date. The Covered Person Change is also permitted where there is a marriage, divorce, or death prior to the Activation Date (the “Life Change Event”) of one of the original Covered Person(s). You may take withdrawals prior to the Activation Date and those withdrawals will not lock in the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage and Protected Income Payment Percentage. However, withdrawals taken prior to the Activation Date will reduce the Income Base, Income Credit Base, and Purchase Payments in the same proportion by which the contract value is reduced by the withdrawal.

The annual Income Credit is an amount we may add to the Income Base each year prior to Income Activation. The Income Credit is determined by multiplying the applicable Income Credit Percentage by the Income Credit Base.

Prior to Activation Date, if withdrawals are taken, the Income Credit amount is reduced because it will be based on the proportionately reduced Income Credit Base.

On or after the Activation Date, the Income Credit will no longer be available.

Please see “How do increases to the Income Base and Income Credit Base work under Polaris Income Max?” below.

How does Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex work?

Activation Date will reduce the Income Base and Purchase Payments in the same proportion by which the contract value is reduced by the withdrawal.

On or after the Activation Date, the Minimum Income Base will no longer increase on future Benefit Anniversaries. Please see “How do increases in the Income Base work under Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex?” below.

Please see Investment Requirements for Optional Living Benefits in APPENDIX A – UNDERLYING FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER THE CONTRACT for the investment requirements associated with these optional Living Benefits.

What determines the amount I can receive each year?

The amount that you receive depends on whether there are one or two Covered Person(s), the age of the Covered Person(s) and whether your contract value is greater than or equal to zero on the Activation Date.

While the contract value is greater than zero and on or after the Activation Date, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage represents the percentage of your Income Base used to calculate the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount that you may withdraw each Benefit Year without decreasing your Income Base. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage differs depending on whether there are one or two Covered Person(s) and the age of the Covered Person(s) on the Activation Date.

If your contract value has been reduced to zero or the Latest Annuity Date is reached, the Protected Income Payment Percentage represents the percentage of your Income Base used to calculate the Protected Income Payment that you will receive each year over the remaining lifetime of the Covered Person(s). The Protected Income Payment Percentage differs depending on whether there are one or two Covered Person(s) and the age of the Covered Person(s) on the Activation Date. Please see “What happens if the contract value is reduced to zero while the Income Base is greater than zero?”and “What happens to my living benefit upon the Latest Annuity Date?”below.

Are there investment requirements if I elect a Living Benefit?

Yes, you must allocate your assets, including Purchase Payments and the Continuation Contribution, if any, to a combination of the Secure Value Account and Variable Portfolios in accordance with the investment requirements. Please see Investment Requirements for Optional Living Benefits in APPENDIX A – UNDERLYING FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER THE CONTRACT for the investment requirements associated with this optional Living Benefit.

G-8

Account to a DCA Fixed Account or Fixed Account, if available, or to the Variable Portfolios at any time unless the Living Benefit is cancelled.

You may use available DCA Fixed Accounts to invest your target allocations in accordance with the investment requirements.

How do my investment requirements impact my feature and contract?

Before you elect a Living Benefit, you should carefully consider whether the investment requirements associated with the Living Benefits meet your investment objectives and risk tolerance.

The investment requirements may reduce the need to rely on the guarantees provided by these Living Benefits because they allocate your investment across asset classes and potentially limit exposure to market volatility. As a result, you may have better, or worse, investment returns by allocating your investments more aggressively. Therefore, the investment restrictions reduce the Company’s risk that the contract value will be reduced to zero before the Covered Person(s)’ death. Withdrawals taken while the contract value is greater than zero are withdrawals of the contract owner’s own money. Thus, these investment restrictions would reduce the likelihood that the Company would use its own assets to make payments in connection with the Living Benefit guarantee. You may never need to rely on this protection as the benefit’s value is dependent on your contract’s performance, your withdrawal activity and your longevity. Though the optional Living Benefits offer additional protections, the additional fee associated with the benefits has the impact of reducing the net investment return. Please consult your financial representative regarding which Variable Portfolios are appropriate for the Living Benefit you elected.

To be considered in Good Order, your allocation instructions for any Purchase Payment as well as your target allocations if you invest in a DCA Fixed Account must comply with the investment requirements, provided under Investment Requirements for Optional Living Benefits in APPENDIX A – UNDERLYING FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER THE CONTRACT, for the amount not invested in the Secure Value Account. You may not transfer any amounts between the Secure Value Account and the Variable Portfolios or DCA Fixed Accounts. The Secure Value Account may not be used as a target account if you are using the DCA Program to comply with investment requirements. You may not request any specific amount of any withdrawal to be deducted solely from the Secure Value Account. Rather, any withdrawal reduces the amount invested in the Secure Value Account in the same proportion that the withdrawal reduces the contract value.

investment requirements due to additions, deletions, substitutions, mergers or reorganizations of the investment options. The required allocation percentage to the Secure Value Account will not change for the life of your contract.

Rebalancing and Investment Requirements

Automatic transfers and/or systematic withdrawals will not result in rebalancing before the next automatic quarterly rebalancing occurs. The day following any transfer or withdrawal you initiate, we will rebalance in accordance with your most current and compliant Automatic Asset Rebalancing instructions on file. If you do not provide new rebalancing instructions at the time you initiate a transfer, we will update your ongoing rebalancing instructions to reflect the percentage allocations resulting from that transfer (“Default Rebalancing Instructions”) which will replace any previous rebalancing instructions you may have provided.

We will not rebalance amounts in the Secure Value Account or DCA Fixed Accounts under the Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program.

What are the factors used to calculate Polaris Income Max?

The Lifetime Income offered by Polaris Income Max is calculated by considering the factors described below.

First,we determine if the Anniversary Value is the Higher Anniversary Value. The Anniversary Value equals your contract value on any Benefit Year Anniversary.

Third,we determine the Income Credit Base which is used solely as a basis for calculating the Income Credit prior to

G-9

the Activation Date. The initial Income Credit Base is equal to the first Purchase Payment. The Income Credit Base is increased by each Purchase Payment received and is reduced proportionately for any withdrawals taken prior to the Activation Date.

Fourth, we determine the Income Credit. The Income Credit is equal to the Income Credit Percentage of 5.25% multiplied by the Income Credit Base on each Benefit Year Anniversary prior to the Activation Date. On or after the Activation Date, the Income Credit will no longer be available.

Fifth, we determine the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, which represents the maximum percentage of the Income Base that can be withdrawn each Benefit Year on or after the Activation Date and while the contract value is greater than zero, without reducing the Income Base. If your contract value is reduced to zero after the Activation Date but your Income Base is greater than zero, the Protected Income Payment Percentage represents the percentage of the Income Base you will receive each Benefit Year thereafter until the death of the Covered Person(s).

contract value is reduced by the Excess Withdrawal. Please see “What are the effects of withdrawals on Polaris Income Max?” below.

What are the factors used to calculate Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex?

The Lifetime Income offered by Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex is calculated by considering the factors described below.

Third, if you do not activate Lifetime Income before each Benefit Year Anniversary up to the Activation Date, an annual Minimum Income Base Percentage of 5% will be applied to Purchase Payments received. Further, any withdrawals taken prior to activating Lifetime Income will proportionately reduce the Purchase Payments used in the calculation of the Minimum Income Base.

G-10

reducing the Income Base. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount is calculated by multiplying the Income Base by the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage. If your contract value is reduced to zero after activating Lifetime Income, but your Income Base is greater than zero, the Protected Income Payment is determined by multiplying the Income Base when contract value is reduced to zero by the applicable Protected Income Payment Percentage.

How do increases to the Income Base and Income Credit Base work under Polaris Income Max?

How do increases to the Income Base work under Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex?

Prior to the Activation Date, the Income Base is increased daily to the Step-up Value and by subsequent Purchase Payments, if any.

Additionally, prior to the Benefit Year Anniversary, the Income Base will be increased to at least the Minimum

Income Base on the Benefit Year Anniversary as a specified percentage of the Purchase Payments.

What are the effects of withdrawals on Polaris Income Max?

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount, the Income Base and the Income Credit Base may change over time as a result of the timing and amount of any withdrawals.

Prior to the Activation Date

Additionally, any withdrawal taken will reduce the Income Credit. The reduction to the Income Credit Base will result in a lowered Income Credit amount being applied to the Income Base. In addition, these withdrawals will not lock-in your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage or Protected Income Payment Percentage, if applicable because your Lifetime Income withdrawals have not been activated.

On or after the Activation Date

Penalty-Free Withdrawal Amount: Your Lifetime Income is free of withdrawal charges. However, if you take a withdrawal after the Activation Date which is greater than

G-11

your Lifetime Income, that amount is treated as an Excess Withdrawal. Such withdrawal may be subject to charges and could result in your contract value being reduced to zero which would significantly reduce or eliminate the value of electing a Living Benefit.

Excess Withdrawals may significantly reduce the value of or terminate the Living Benefit.

For example, assume that your contract value is $106,000, your Income Base is $120,000, and your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount is $6,000 and your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage is 5%. Withdrawals greater than $6,000 would be an Excess Withdrawal. You request a withdrawal of $11,000, of which $5,000 is in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount. Your Income Base will be reduced proportionately to $114,000 as follows: $120,000 x {1 – [($11,000 - $6,000)/($106,000 - $6,000)]} = $114,000. The new Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount will now be 5% of the Income Base: 5% x $114,000 which is $5,700.

When the contract value is less than the Income Base, Excess Withdrawals will reduce the Income Base by an

amount which is greater than the amount of the Excess Withdrawal. The impact of withdrawals on specific factors is further explained below:

What are the effects of withdrawals on Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex?

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount, the Income Base and the Purchase Payment(s) used in the calculation of the Minimum Income Base may change over time as a result of the timing and amount of any withdrawals.

Prior to the Activation Date

G-12

On or after the Activation Date

Excess Withdrawals may significantly reduce the value of or terminate the Living Benefit.

For example, assume that your contract value is $106,000, your Income Base is $120,000, your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount is $6,000 and your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage is 5%. Withdrawals greater than $6,000 would be an Excess Withdrawal. You request a withdrawal of $11,000, of which $5,000 is in excess of your Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount. Your Income Base

will be reduced proportionately to $114,000 as follows: $120,000 x {1 – [($11,000 - $6,000)/($106,000 - $6,000)]} = $114,000. The new Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount will now be 5% of the Income Base: 5% x $114,000 which is $5,700.

Minimum Income Base: If you activate Lifetime Income, the Minimum Income Base will no longer increase on future Benefit Anniversaries.

How can I change my Income Option Election?

What is the fee for Polaris Income Max and Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex?

The fee for Polaris Income Max and Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex is calculated as a percentage of the Income Base and deducted from the contract value on a quarterly basis beginning on the first Benefit Quarter Anniversary following the Benefit Effective Date. In Connecticut, Hawaii, Missouri, Oregon, Texas, Vermont, Virginia and Washington, the charge will be deducted pro-rata from Variable Portfolios only. After the first Benefit Year, on each Benefit Quarter Anniversary, we will (1) deduct the fee in effect for the previous Benefit Quarter; and (2) determine the fee rate applicable to the next Benefit Quarter. In addition, if you change your Income Option on the Activation Date, your

annual fee will increase on the next Benefit Quarter Anniversary. Please see fee table below:

Polaris Income Max Fee
Polaris Income Plus Daily Flex Fee

For contracts issued between May 3, 2021 and April 30, 2023

Number of Covered Persons	Initial Annual Fee Rate	Maximum Annual Fee Rate	Minimum Annual Fee Rate	Maximum Annualized Fee Rate Decrease or Increase Each Benefit Quarter*
One Covered Person	1.45%	2.50%	0.60%	±0.40%
Two Covered Persons	1.45%	2.50%	0.60%	±0.40%

Lifetime Income Option Change Fee*

0.25%

The initial Annual Fee Rate is guaranteed not to change for the first Benefit Year. Subsequently, the fee rate may change quarterly subject to the parameters identified in the table above. Any fee adjustment is based on a non-discretionary formula tied to the change in the Volatility Index (“VIX®”), an index of market volatility reported by the Chicago Board Options Exchange. In general, as the average value of the VIX decreases or increases, your fee rate will decrease or increase accordingly, subject to the minimums and maximums identified in the table above.

G-14

For Polaris Income Max, an increase in the Income Base due to an addition of an Income Credit, attaining a new Higher Anniversary Value or an addition of subsequent Purchase Payments will result in an increase to the amount of the fee you pay since the fee rate is assessed against the Income Base, assuming that the annual fee rate has not decreased as described above. Please note that this means the addition of an Income Credit prior to the Activation Date will lead to paying a higher fee in any given period than without the addition of the Income Credit because the Income Credit may increase the Income Base. You will be assessed a non-refundable fee each quarter regardless of whether you activate Lifetime Income.

What happens if the contract value is reduced to zero while the Income Base is greater than zero?

Prior to the Activation Date,
If the contract value is reduced to zero due to a withdrawal, but the Income Base is greater than zero, the contract will be terminated including any optional benefits and features.

If an Excess Withdrawal reduces your contract value to zero, no further benefits are payable under the contract and your contract along with the Living Benefit will terminate.

When the contract value equals zero but the Income Base is greater than zero, to receive any remaining Living Benefit, you must select one of the following:

The Protected Income Payment divided equally and paid on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual frequency as selected by you until the date of death of the Covered Person(s); or

Any option mutually agreeable between you and us.
