SPECIAL DOLLAR COST AVERAGING

This endorsement is part of the Contract and is effective upon the Contract Date.

Special Dollar Cost Averaging Program

You may elect to participate in a Special Dollar Cost Averaging Program at any time, by completing the appropriate form. You may only make lump sum rollover or direct transfer Contributions to a Special Dollar Cost Averaging Program. We transfer a portion of each amount allocated to the account (including accrued interest) to the Investment Options according to your allocation instructions on a systematic monthly basis, such that all amounts are transferred out of the account by the end of the program. The first transfer date will be the same day of the month as the Contract Date, provided it is a Business Day otherwise it will be the first Business Day thereafter, or one month from the date the first Contribution is allocated to a Special Dollar Cost Averaging program, but not later than the 28th day of the month. Each program is for a [three, six, or twelve] month period or such other period we may make available to you in the future. Each period will have a different interest rate that is set at the beginning and will not change until the end of the period. The minimum initial amount that you may allocate to a Special Dollar Cost Averaging program is [$2,000]. You may elect to make subsequent Contributions to an existing Special Dollar Cost Averaging Program. The minimum subsequent Contribution amount that may be made to an existing program is [$250]. Subsequent Contributions to an existing Special Dollar Cost Averaging Program will not extend the expiration date of that program.

You may have only one Special Dollar Cost Averaging Program in effect at a time and that period cannot be changed once selected. At the expiration of a Special Dollar Cost Averaging Program, you may start a new program with a new period for future lump sum rollovers or direct transfer Contributions.

Any amount held in an account for Special Dollar Cost Averaging becomes part of our general assets, which support the guarantees of the Contract and other contracts. We will credit the amount of each Contribution allocated to and remaining in an account for Special Dollar Cost Averaging with interest at the effective annual rate (compounded daily) that was applicable to your program on the Transaction Date of the Contribution. We may set different rates for programs of a different duration.
