Key Terms
These terms can help you understand details about your Contract.
Annuitization start date: The date when annuity payments begin according to the applicable annuity payment plan.
Contract: A deferred annuity contract that permits you to accumulate money for retirement by making one or more purchase payments. It provides for lifetime or other forms of payouts beginning at a specified time in the future.
Contract value: The total value of your contract at any point in time. The contract value is the sum of the contract value in the Regular Fixed Account, contract value in the Special DCA Fixed Account, contract value in the Variable Account, and contract value in the GPAs.
Contract year: A period of 12 months, starting on the effective date of your Contract and on each anniversary of the effective date.
Fixed account: Part of our general account which includes the regular fixed account and the Special DCA fixed account. Amounts you allocate to this account earn interest at rates that we declare periodically.
Funds: A portfolio of an open-end management investment company that is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in which the Subaccounts invest.  May also be referred to as an underlying Fund. 
Guarantee Period Accounts (GPAs): A nonunitized separate account to which you may allocate purchase payments or transfer contract value of at least $1,000. These accounts have guaranteed interest rates for guarantee periods we declare when you allocate
purchase payments or transfer contract value to a GPA. These guaranteed rates and periods of time may vary by state. Unless an exception applies, transfers or surrenders from a GPA done more than 30 days before the end of the guarantee period will receive a market value adjustment, which may result in a gain or loss of principal.
Market Value Adjustment (MVA): A positive or negative adjustment assessed if any portion of a Guarantee Period Account is surrendered or transferred more than 30 days before the end of its guarantee period.
Rider: You receive a rider to your contract when you purchase optional benefits. The rider adds the terms of the optional benefit to your Contract.
Separate Account: An insulated segregated account, the assets of which are invested solely in an underlying Fund. We call this the Variable Account.
Service Center: Our department that processes all transaction and service requests for the Contracts. We consider all transaction and service requests received when they arrive in good order at the Service Center. Any transaction or service requests sent or directed to any location other than our Service Center may end up delayed or not processed. Our Service Center address and telephone number are listed on the first page of the prospectus.
Subaccount: A division of the Variable Account, each of which invests in one Fund.
Variable account: Refers to the RiverSource Variable Account 10, a Separate account established to hold Contract owners’ assets allocated to the Subaccounts, each of which invests in a particular Fund.

Risk of Loss You can lose money by investing in this Contract including loss of principal. Principal Risks
Not a Short-Term Investment • The Contract is not a short-term investment and is not appropriate for an investor who needs ready access to cash.
• The RAVA 5 Advantage and RAVA 5 Select contracts have surrender charges which may reduce the value of your Contract if you withdraw money during the surrender charge period. Surrenders may also reduce or terminate contract guarantees.
• The benefits of tax deferral, long-term income, and optional living benefit guarantees mean the contract is generally more beneficial to investors with a long term investment horizon.

  CONFLICTS OF INTEREST Location in Statutory Prospectus
Investment Professional Compensation Your investment professional may receive compensation for selling this Contract to you, in the form of commissions, additional cash benefits (e.g., bonuses), and non-cash compensation. This financial incentive may influence your investment professional to recommend this Contract over another investment for which the investment professional is not compensated or compensated less. About the Service Providers
Exchanges If you already own an annuity or insurance Contract, some investment professionals may have a financial incentive to offer you a new Contract in place of the one you own. You should only exchange a Contract you already own 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.
