ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York
Separate Account NY-B of ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York
Deferred Combination Variable and Fixed Annuity Prospectus
ING EMPIRE TRADITIONS VARIABLE ANNUITY

 

April 29, 2011

 

This prospectus describes ING Empire Traditions Variable Annuity, a deferred combination variable and fixed
annuity contract (the “Contract”) offered for sale by ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York (“ReliaStar of
NY,” the “Company,” “we” or “our”) through Separate Account NY-B (the “Separate Account”). The Contract was
available in connection with certain retirement plans that qualify for special federal income tax treatment (“qualified
Contracts”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Tax Code”), as well as those that do not
qualify for such treatment (“non-qualified Contracts”). As of March 15, 2010, we are no longer offering this
Contract for sale to new purchasers.

The Contract provides a means for you to allocate your premium payments and any associated premium credits,
if applicable, in one or more subaccounts, each of which invest in a single investment portfolio. You may also
allocate premium payments and any associated premium credits, if applicable, to our Fixed Interest Division with
guaranteed interest periods. Your contract value will vary daily to reflect the investment performance of the
investment portfolio(s) you select and any interest credited to your allocations in the Fixed Interest Division. Some
guaranteed interest periods or subaccounts may not be available. The investment portfolios available under your
Contract are listed on the back of this cover.

You have a right to return a Contract within 10 days after you receive it for a refund of the adjusted contract
value, less any premium credits, if applicable (which may be more or less than the premium payments you paid).
Longer free look periods apply in certain situations.

Replacing an existing annuity with the Contract may not be beneficial to you. Your existing annuity may
be subject to fees or penalties on surrender, and the Contract may have new charges.

This prospectus provides information that you should know before investing and should be kept for future
reference. A Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”), dated April 29, 2011, has been filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). It is available without charge upon request. To obtain a copy of this
document, write to our Customer Service Center at P.O. Box 9271, Des Moines, Iowa 50306-9271 or call (800) 366-
0066, or access the SEC’s website (http://www.sec.gov). When looking for information regarding the contracts
offered through the prospectus, you may find it useful to use the number assigned to the registration statement under
the Securities Act of 1933. The number is 333-85618. The table of contents of the SAI is on the last page of this
prospectus and the SAI is made part of this prospectus by reference.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has not approved or disapproved these securities or passed
upon the adequacy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The Contract has a premium credit option that is available for an additional charge. The expenses for a contract
providing a premium credit, as this Contract does, may be higher than for contracts not providing a premium credit.
Over time, and under certain circumstances, the amount of the premium credit may be more than offset by the
additional fees and charges associated with the premium credit. See “The Annuity Contract – Additional Credit to
Premium” for further information about the terms of the premium credit option. See “Charges and Fees – Charges
Deducted from the Subaccounts – Premium Credit Option Charge” for further information about the additional fees and
charges associated with the premium credit option.

Allocations to a subaccount investing in a Trust or Fund (investment portfolio) is not a bank deposit and
is not insured or guaranteed by any bank or by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other
government agency.

We pay compensation to broker/dealers whose registered representatives sell the Contract. See “Other
Contract Provisions – Selling the Contract” for further information about the amount of compensation we
pay.

The investment portfolios are listed on the next page.

1 Optional rider charges are expressed as a percentage, rounded to the nearest hundredth of one percent. The basis
  for an optional rider charge may be a charge base, benefit base or contract value, as applicable. Optional rider
  charges are deducted from the contract value in your subaccount allocations. You may add only one optional
  rider to your Contract.  
 
2 The MGAB Charge Base is calculated based on total premiums and any premium credits, if applicable, within a
  two-year period from the rider date. Please see “Charges and Fees - Optional Rider Charges – Minimum
  Guaranteed Accumulation Benefit (MGAB)” and “Living Benefit Riders – Minimum Guaranteed Accumulation
  Benefit Rider (the “MGAB” rider)” later in this prospectus for more information.

3 The MGIB Benefit Base is equal to the greater of the MGIB Rollup Base and the MGIB Ratchet Base and is
calculated based on eligible premiums and premium credits, if applicable. Please see “Charges and Fees –
Optional Rider Charges – Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit (MGIB)” and “Living Benefit Riders –
Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit Rider (the “MGIB rider”)” later in this prospectus for more information.
 
4 The ING LifePay Plus Base is calculated based on premium, excluding any premium credits, if this rider is
elected at contract issue. The ING LifePay Plus Base is calculated based on contract value, excluding any
premium credits applied during the preceding 36 months, if this rider is added after contract issue. The current
annual charge is 0.60% if this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009. The current annual charge can
change upon a reset after your first five contract years. But you will never pay more than new issues of this rider,
subject to the maximum annual charge. Please see “Charges and Fees – Optional Rider Charges – ING LifePay
Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (ING LifePay Plus) Rider Charge” and “Living Benefit Riders –
ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider” later in this
prospectus.
 
5 The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is calculated based on premium, excluding any premium credits, if this rider is
elected at contract issue. The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is calculated based on contract value, excluding any
premium credits applied during the preceding 36 months, if this rider is added after contract issue. The current
annual charge is 0.80% if this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009. The current annual charge can
change upon a reset after your first five contract years. But you will never pay more than new issues of this rider,
subject to the maximum annual charge. Please see “Charges and Fees – Optional Rider Charges – ING Joint
LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (ING Joint LifePay Plus) Rider Charge” and “Living
Benefit Riders – ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”)
Rider” later in the prospectus.

 

The next two tables show the total annual charges you could pay based on the amounts you have invested in
the subaccounts (unless otherwise indicated), for the Contract and each death benefit and the most expensive
combination of riders possible. Maximum and current charges are shown, but not the Annual Contract
Administrative Charge. Also, these tables do not show the Trust or Fund Expenses. Please note that the bases for
some charges may differ somewhat. For example, the charge for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is based on the
ING Joint LifePay Plus Base, which can be higher than contract value, leading to higher charges than would be the
case if it were based on contract value. Nevertheless, for purposes of these tables, we have assumed that the value
of the amounts invested in the subaccounts and the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base are both the same as the contract
value. The charge for the Premium Credit Option lasts for your first seven contract years following the credit.

Separate Account Annual Charge Tables      
 
MAXIMUM CHARGES Option   Option   Option  
  Package I   Package II   Package III  
Mortality & Expense Risk Charge 1.10 % 1.30 % 1.45 %

The next item shows the minimum and maximum total operating expenses charged by a Trust or Fund that you
may pay periodically during the time that you own the Contract. More detail concerning each Trust or Fund’s fees
and expenses is contained in the prospectus for each Trust or Fund.

Total Annual Trust or Fund Operating Expenses1 Minimum   Maximum  
(expenses that are deducted from Trust or Fund assets, including        
management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other 0.52 % 1.59 %
expenses):        

 

1 No waiver or reimbursement arrangements are reflected. These expenses reflect the expenses of the other (acquired)
funds with a fund of funds. No Trust or Fund currently charges a redemption fee. For more information about
redemption fees, please see “Charges and Fees – Charges Deducted From the Contract Value – Redemption Fees.”

 

Example

This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Contract with the cost of investing in other
variable annuity contracts. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Contract for the time periods
indicated. The costs reflected are the maximum charges for the Contract with the most expensive death benefit
option and the most expensive living benefit rider. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return
each year and assumes the maximum Trust or Fund Expenses. Excluded are the premium credit option and its
charge, premium taxes and any transfer charges.

Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

  1) If you surrender or annuitize* your contract at the end of the applicable time period:
  1 year   3 years   5 years   10 years
$1,170 $2,350 $3,483 $6,327
  2) If you do not surrender your contract:        
  1 year   3 years   5 years   10 years
$570 $1,750 $2,983 $6,327

 

* Surrender charges may apply if you choose to annuitize your Contract within the first year, and
  under certain circumstances, within the first seven contract years.

 

Compensation is paid for the sale of the Contracts. For information about this compensation, see “Other Contract
Provisions Selling the Contract.”

Fees Deducted by the Funds

Fund Fee Information. The fund prospectuses show the investment advisory fees, 12b-1 fees and other
expenses including service fees (if applicable) charged annually by each fund. Fund fees are one factor that impacts
the value of a fund share. Please refer to the fund prospectuses for more information and to learn more about
additional factors.

The Company may receive compensation from each of the funds or the funds’ affiliates based on an annual
percentage of the average net assets held in that fund by the Company. The percentage paid may vary from one
fund company to another. For certain funds, some of this compensation may be paid out of 12b-1 fees or service
fees that are deducted from fund assets. Any such fees deducted from fund assets are disclosed in the fund
prospectuses. The Company may also receive additional compensation from certain funds for administrative,
recordkeeping or other services provided by the Company to the funds or the funds’ affiliates. These additional
payments may also be used by the Company to finance distribution. These additional payments are made by the
funds or the funds’ affiliates to the Company and do not increase, directly or indirectly, the fund fees and expenses.
Please see “Charges and Fees – Trust and Fund Expenses” for more information.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

In the case of fund companies affiliated with the Company, where an affiliated investment adviser employs
subadvisers to manage the funds, no direct payments are made to the Company or the affiliated investment adviser
by the subadvisers. Subadvisers may provide reimbursement for employees of the Company or its affiliates to
attend business meetings or training conferences. Investment management fees are apportioned between the
affiliated investment adviser and subadviser. This apportionment varies by subadviser, resulting in varying amounts
of revenue retained by the affiliated investment adviser. This apportionment of the investment advisory fee does not
increase, directly or indirectly, fund fees and expenses. Please see “Charges and Fees – Trust and Fund Expenses”
for more information.

How Fees are Deducted. Fees are deducted from the value of the fund shares on a daily basis, which in turn
affects the value of each subaccount that purchases fund shares.

CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
Accumulation Unit
We use accumulation units to calculate the value of a Contract. Each subaccount of Separate Account NY-B of
ReliaStar of NY (“Separate Account NY-B”) has its own accumulation unit value. The accumulation units are
valued each business day that the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading. Their values may increase or
decrease from day to day according to a Net Investment Factor, which is primarily based on the investment
performance of the applicable investment portfolio. Shares in the investment portfolios are valued at their net asset
value.
 
Tables containing (i) the accumulation unit value history of each subaccount of Separate Account NY-B offered in
this prospectus and (ii) the total investment value history of each such subaccount are presented in Appendix A —
Condensed Financial Information – for the lowest and highest combination of asset-based charges. The numbers
show the year-end unit values of each subaccount from the time purchase payments were first received in the
subaccounts under the Contract. Complete information is available in the SAI.
 
The Net Investment Factor
The Net Investment Factor is an index number which reflects certain charges under the Contract and the investment
performance of the subaccount. The Net Investment Factor is calculated for each subaccount as follows:

 

1 ) We take the net asset value of the subaccount at the end of each business day.
 
2 ) We add to (1) the amount of any dividend or capital gains distribution declared for the subaccount and
    reinvested in such subaccount. We subtract from that amount a charge for our taxes, if any.
 
3 ) We divide (2) by the net asset value of the subaccount at the end of the preceding business day.
 
4 ) We then subtract the applicable daily charges from the subaccount: the mortality and expense risk
    charge; the asset-based administrative charge; the premium credit option charge, if applicable; any
    optional rider charges; and, for the GET Fund subaccount only, the daily GET Fund guarantee charge.

 

Calculations for the subaccounts are made on a per share basis.

The Net Rate of Return equals the Net Investment Factor minus one.

Financial Statements
The statements of assets and liabilities, the statements of operations, the statements of changes in net
assets and the related notes to financial statements for Separate Account NY-B and the financial statements and
the related notes to financial statements for ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of NY are included in the
Statement of Additional Information.

RELIASTAR OF NY SEPARATE ACCOUNT NY-B
 
ReliaStar of NY Separate Account NY-B (“Separate Account NY-B”) was established as a separate account of First
Golden American Life Insurance Company of New York (“First Golden”) on June 13, 1996. It became a separate
account of ReliaStar of NY as a result of the merger of First Golden into ReliaStar of NY effective April 1, 2002. It
is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”).
Separate Account NY-B is a separate investment account used for our variable annuity contracts. We own all the
assets in Separate Account NY-B but such assets are kept separate from our other accounts.
 
Separate Account NY-B is divided into subaccounts. Each subaccount invests exclusively in shares of one
investment portfolio of a Trust or Fund. Each investment portfolio has its own distinct investment objectives and
policies. Income, gains and losses, realized or unrealized, of a portfolio are credited to or charged against the
corresponding subaccount of Separate Account NY-B without regard to any other income, gains or losses of the
Company. Assets equal to the reserves and other contract liabilities with respect to each are not chargeable with
liabilities arising out of any other business of the Company. They may, however, be subject to liabilities arising
from subaccounts whose assets we attribute to other variable annuity contracts supported by Separate Account NY-
B. If the assets in Separate Account NY-B exceed the required reserves and other liabilities, we may transfer the
excess to our general account. We are obligated to pay all benefits and make all payments provided under the
Contracts.
 
Unlike Separate Account NY-B, the general account is not segregated or insulated from the claims of the
Company’s creditors.
 
Note: Other variable annuity contracts invest in Separate Account NY-B but are not
discussed in this prospectus. Separate Account NY-B may also invest in other investment portfolios which are not
available under your Contract. Under certain circumstances, we may make certain changes to the subaccounts. For
more information, see “The Annuity Contract — Addition, Deletion, or Substitution of Subaccounts and Other
Changes.”

 

RELIASTAR LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK
 
ReliaStar of NY is a New York stock life insurance company originally incorporated on June 11, 1917 under the
name The Morris Plan Insurance Society. ReliaStar of NY is authorized to transact business in all states, the District
of Columbia, the Dominican Republic and the Cayman Islands and is principally engaged in the business of
providing individual life insurance and annuities, employee benefit products and services, retirement plans, and life
and health reinsurance. Until October 1, 2003, ReliaStar of NY was a wholly owned subsidiary of Security-
Connecticut Life Insurance Company (“Security-Connecticut”). Effective October 1, 2003, Security-Connecticut
merged with and into its parent, ReliaStar Life Insurance Company (“ReliaStar”). ReliaStar is an indirect wholly
owned subsidiary of ING Groep, N.V. (“ING”), a global financial services holding company, based in The
Netherlands. Although we are a subsidiary of ING, ING is not responsible for the obligations under the Contract.
The obligations under the Contract are solely the responsibility of ReliaStar of NY.
 
Directed Services LLC, the distributor of the Contracts and the investment manager of the ING Investors Trust, is
also a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of ING. ING also indirectly owns ING Investments, LLC and ING

As part of a restructuring plan approved by the European Commission, ING has agreed to separate its banking and
insurance businesses by 2013. ING intends to achieve this separation by divestment of its
insurance and investment management operations, including the Company. ING has announced that it will explore
all options for implementing the separation including initial public offerings, sales or combinations thereof.

Regulatory Matters
As with many financial services companies, the Company and its affiliates periodically receive informal and formal
requests for information from various state and federal governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations in
connection with inquiries and investigations of the products and practices of the Company or the financial services
industry. Some of these investigations and inquiries could result in regulatory action against the Company. The
potential outcome of such action is difficult to predict but could subject the Company or its affiliates to adverse
consequences, including, but not limited to, settlement payments, penalties, fines, and other financial liability. It is
not currently anticipated that the outcome of any such action will have a material adverse effect on ING or ING’s
U.S.-based operations, including the Company. It is the practice of the Company and its affiliates to cooperate fully
in these matters.

Product Regulation. Our products are subject to a complex and extensive array of state and federal tax,
securities and insurance laws, and regulations, which are administered and enforced by a number of governmental
and self-regulatory authorities. Specifically, U.S. federal income tax law imposes requirements relating to
nonqualified annuity product design, administration, and investments that are conditions for beneficial tax treatment
of such products under the Internal Revenue Code. (See “Federal Tax Considerations” for further discussion of
some of these requirements.) Failure to administer certain nonqualified contract features (for example, contractual
annuity start dates in nonqualified annuities) could affect such beneficial tax treatment. In addition, state and federal
securities and insurance laws impose requirements relating to insurance and annuity product design, offering and
distribution, and administration. Failure to meet any of these complex tax, securities, or insurance requirements
could subject the Company to administrative penalties, unanticipated remediation, or other claims and costs.

THE TRUSTS AND FUNDS
 
You will find information about the Trusts and Funds currently available under your Contract in “Appendix
B — The Investment Portfolios.” A prospectus containing more information on each Trust or Fund may be
obtained by calling our Customer Service Center at 800-366-0066. You should read the prospectus carefully
before investing.
 
Certain funds are designated as “Master-Feeder” or “Retirement Funds.” Funds offered in a Master-Feeder structure
(such as the American Funds) or fund of funds structure (such as the Retirement Funds) may have higher fees and
expenses than a fund that invests directly in debt and equity securities. Consult with your investment professional to
determine if the Portfolios may be suited to your financial needs, investment time horizon and risk tolerance. You
should periodically review these factors to determine if you need to change your investment strategy.
 
In the event that, due to differences in tax treatment or other considerations, the interests of contract owners of
various contracts participating in the Trusts conflict, we, the Boards of Trustees or Directors of Trusts or Funds, and
any insurance companies participating in the Trusts or Funds will monitor events to identify and resolve any
material conflicts that may arise.
 
ING GET U.S. Core Portfolio
An ING GET U.S. Core Portfolio (“GET Fund”) series may be available during the accumulation phase of the
Contract. We make a guarantee, as described below, when you allocate money into a GET Fund series. Each GET
Fund series has an offering period of six months which precedes the guarantee period. The GET Fund investment
option may not be available under your Contract or in your state. The GET Fund may not be available through all
broker dealer selling firms.
 
You may not allocate money into a GET Fund series if you elect an optional benefit rider. Effective June 21,
2007, no new series of the GET Fund are available.
 
Various series of the GET Fund may be offered from time to time, and additional charges will apply if you elect to
invest in one of these series. The Company makes a guarantee when you direct money into a GET Fund series. We
guarantee that the value of an accumulation unit of the GET Fund subaccount for that series under the Contract on
the maturity date will not be less than its value as determined after the close of business on the last day of the
offering period for that GET Fund series. If the value on the maturity date is lower than it was on the last day of the
offering period, we will add funds to the GET Fund subaccount for that series to make up the difference. This
means that if you remain invested in the GET Fund series until the maturity date, at the maturity date, you will
receive no less than the value of your separate account investment directed to the GET Fund series as of the last day
of the offering period, less charges not reflected in the accumulation unit value and any amounts you transfer or
withdraw from the GET Fund subaccount for that series. The value of dividends and distributions made by the GET
Fund series throughout the guarantee period is taken into account in determining whether, for purposes of the
guarantee, the value of your GET Fund investment on the maturity date is no less than its value as of the last day of
the offering period. If you withdraw or transfer funds from a GET Fund series prior to the maturity date, we will
process the transactions at the actual unit value next determined after we receive your request. The GET Fund
subaccount is not available for dollar cost averaging or automatic rebalancing.

Before the maturity date, we will send a notice to each contract owner who has allocated amounts to the GET Fund
series. This notice will remind you that the maturity date is approaching and that you must choose other investment
options for your GET Fund series amounts. If you do not make a choice, on the maturity date we will transfer your
GET Fund series amounts to another available series of the GET Fund that is then accepting deposits. If no GET
Fund series is then available, we will transfer your GET Fund series amounts to the fund or funds that we designate.

Please see the ING GET U.S. Core Portfolio prospectus for a complete description of the ING GET U.S. Core
Portfolio investment option, including charges and expenses.

Covered Funds and Special Funds
For purposes of determining benefits under the living benefit riders, we assign the investment options (the
investment portfolios available under your Contract) to one of two categories, Covered Funds or Special Funds.
Allocations to Covered Funds participate fully in the calculations to determine the value of your guaranteed benefits
under a living benefit rider. Allocations to Special Funds could affect the optional benefit rider guarantee that may
otherwise be provided because Special Funds do not participate fully in the calculations to determine the value of
your guaranteed benefit under a living benefit rider. Assets in Covered Funds generally provide a higher living
benefit than those allocated to Special Funds. Designation of investment options under these categories may vary by
benefit. Please see “Living Benefit Riders” for more information.

We may, with 30 days notice to you, designate any investment option as a Special Fund, but only with respect to
new premiums added to such investment option and also with respect to new transfers to such investment option.

Restricted Funds
Restricted Funds are not related specifically to the living benefit riders. Rather, Restricted Funds are investment
options for which we have limited the amount that may be invested, either on an aggregate basis or an individual
basis. We may designate any investment option as a Restricted Fund and limit the amount you may allocate or
transfer to a Restricted Fund. We may also change the limitations on existing Contracts with respect to new
premiums added to the investment options and with respect to new transfers to the investment options. We may
establish any such limitation, at our discretion, as a percentage of premium or contract value or as a specified dollar
amount and change the limitation at any time. To the extent an investment option is designated both a Restricted
Fund and a Special Fund, allocations to such investment option may limit your participation in the determination of
your guaranteed benefits under a living benefit rider as well as the amount you may allocate to such investment
option.

Currently, we have not designated any investment option as a Restricted Fund. We may, with 30 days notice
to you, designate any investment portfolio as a Restricted Fund or change the limitations on existing contracts with
respect to new premiums added to such investment portfolio and also with respect to new transfers to such
investment portfolio. If a change is made with regard to designation as a Restricted Fund or applicable limitations,
such change will apply only to transactions effected after such change and will not apply to amounts that may
exceed these limitations due solely to a change in designation.

We limit your investment in the Restricted Funds on both an aggregate basis for all Restricted Funds and for each
individual Restricted Fund. The aggregate limits for investment in all Restricted Funds are expressed as a
percentage of contract value, percentage of premium and maximum dollar amount. Currently, your investment in
two or more Restricted Funds would be subject to each of the following three limitations: no more than 30 percent
of contract value; up to 100 percent of each premium; and no more than $999,999,999. We may change these limits,
at our discretion, for new contracts, premiums, transfers or withdrawals.

In addition to limiting your investment in the Restricted Funds on an aggregate basis, we limit your investment in
each individual Restricted Fund. The limits for investment in each Restricted Fund are expressed as a percentage of
contract value, percentage of premium and maximum dollar amount. Currently, the limits for investment in an
individual Restricted Fund are the same as the aggregate limits set forth above. We may change these limits, at our
discretion, for new contracts, premiums, transfers or withdrawals.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

We monitor the aggregate and individual limits on investments in Restricted Funds for each transaction (e.g.
premium payments, reallocations, withdrawals, dollar cost averaging). If the contract value in the Restricted Fund
has increased beyond the applicable limit due to market growth, we will not require the reallocation or withdrawal of
contract value from the Restricted Fund. However, if an aggregate limit has been exceeded, withdrawals must be
taken either from the Restricted Funds or taken pro-rata from all investment options in which contract value is
allocated, so that the percentage of contract value in the Restricted Funds following the withdrawal is less than or
equal to the percentage of contract value in the Restricted Funds prior to the withdrawal.

We will allocate pro-rata the portion of any premium payment that exceeds the limits with a Restricted Fund to your
other investment option choices not designated as Restricted Funds, or to a specially designated subaccount if there
are none (currently, the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio), unless you instruct us otherwise.

We will not permit a transfer to the Restricted Funds to the extent that it would increase the contract value in the
Restricted Fund or in all Restricted Funds to more than the applicable limits set forth above. We will not limit
transfers from Restricted Funds. If the result of multiple reallocations is to lower the percentage of total contract
value in Restricted Funds, the reallocation will be permitted even if the percentage of contract value in a Restricted
Fund is greater than its limit.

Please see “Withdrawals” and “Transfers Among Your Investments (Excessive Trading Policy)” in this prospectus
for more information on the effect of Restricted Funds.

CHARGES AND FEES
 
We deduct the Contract charges described below to compensate us for our cost and expenses, services provided and
risks assumed under the Contracts. We incur certain costs and expenses for distributing and administering the
Contracts, including compensation and expenses paid in connection with sales of the Contracts, for paying the
benefits payable under the Contracts and for bearing various risks associated with the Contracts. Some of the
charges are for optional riders, so they are only deducted if you elect to purchase the rider. The amount of a
Contract charge will not always correspond to the actual costs associated with the charge. For example, the
surrender charge collected may not fully cover all of the distribution expenses incurred by us with the service or
benefits provided. In the event there are any profits from fees and charges deducted under the Contract, including
the mortality and expense risk charge and rider and benefit charges, we may use such profits to finance the
distribution of Contracts. The expenses for a contract providing a premium credit, as this Contract does, may be
higher than for contracts not providing a premium credit. Over time, and under certain circumstances, the amount of
the premium credit may be more than offset by the additional fees and charges associated with the premium credit.
 
Charge Deduction Subaccount
You may elect to have all charges, except daily charges, against your contract value deducted directly from a single
subaccount designated by the Company. Currently we use the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio for this purpose. If you
do not elect this option, or if the amount of the charges is greater than the amount in the designated subaccount, the
charges will be deducted as discussed below. You may cancel this option at any time by sending notice to our
Customer Service Center in a form satisfactory to us.
 
Charges Deducted from the Contract Value
We deduct the following charges from your contract value:
 
Surrender Charge. We will deduct a contingent deferred sales charge (a “surrender charge”) if you surrender
your Contract or if you take a withdrawal in excess of the Free Withdrawal Amount during the 7-year period from
the date we receive and accept a premium payment. The surrender charge is a percentage of each premium payment
withdrawn. This charge is intended to cover sales expenses that we have incurred. The surrender charge will be
based on the total amount withdrawn, including the amount deducted for the surrender charge. It will be deducted
from the contract value remaining after you have received the amount requested for withdrawal. The surrender
charge is not based on or deducted from the amount you requested as a withdrawal. We may in the future reduce or
waive the surrender charge in certain situations and will never charge more than the maximum surrender charges.

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

11


 

The percentage of premium payments deducted at the time of surrender or excess withdrawal depends on the
number of complete years that have elapsed since that premium payment was made. We determine the surrender
charge as a percentage of each premium payment withdrawn as follows:
 
Complete Years Elapsed 0   1   2   3   4   5   6   7 +
Since Premium Payment                                
Surrender Charge (as a percentage of 6 % 6 % 6 % 6 % 5 % 4 % 3 % 0 %
Premium Payment)                                

 

Nursing Home Waiver. You may withdraw all or a portion of your contract value without a surrender charge
if:

1 ) at the time you first begin receiving care, more than one contract year has elapsed since the contract
    date;
2 ) the withdrawal is requested during the period of care or within 90 days after the last day of care; and
3 ) you have spent at least 45 days during a 60 day period in such nursing care facility.

 

You must submit satisfactory written proof of illness or incapacity. We may require an examination, at our cost, by
a physician of our choice. We will not waive the early withdrawal charge if you were in a nursing care facility for at
least one day during the two week period immediately preceding or following the contract date. It will also not
apply to Contracts where prohibited by state law. Please note that these withdrawals are subject to the premium
credit recapture provisions.

Terminal Illness Waiver. You may withdraw all or a portion of your contract value without a surrender
charge if:

1 ) You are first diagnosed by a qualified medical professional, on or after the first contract anniversary, as
    having a terminal illness; and
 
2 ) You submit satisfactory written proof of illness.

 

We may require an examination, at our cost, by a physician of our choice.

Free Withdrawal Amount. The Free Withdrawal Amount is 10% of contract value, based on the contract
value on the date of the withdrawal, less any withdrawals during that contract year. Under Option Package III, any
unused percentage of the 10% Free Withdrawal Amount from a contract year will carry forward into successive
contract years, based on the percentage remaining at the time of the last withdrawal in that contract year. In no
event will the free withdrawal amount at any time exceed 30% of contract value.

Surrender Charge for Excess Withdrawals. We will deduct a surrender charge for excess withdrawals which
may include a withdrawal you make to satisfy required minimum distribution requirements under the Tax Code. We
consider a withdrawal to be an “excess withdrawal” when the amount you withdraw in any contract year exceeds the
Free Withdrawal Amount. When you are receiving systematic withdrawals, any combination of regular withdrawals
and systematic withdrawals taken will be included in determining the amount of the excess withdrawals. Systematic
withdrawals are periodic scheduled withdrawals of a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of contract
value. For more information about systematic withdrawals, please see “Withdrawals – Systematic Withdrawals.”
An excess withdrawal is a partial surrender of the Contract subject to a surrender charge, which we will deduct from
the contract value that remains after an excess withdrawal in proportion to your subaccount allocations.

For the purpose of calculating the surrender charge for an excess withdrawal: (a) we treat premiums as being
withdrawn on a first-in, first-out basis; and (b) amounts withdrawn which are not considered an excess withdrawal
are not considered a withdrawal of any premium payments. We have included an example of how this works in
Appendix D. Earnings for purposes of calculating the surrender charge for excess withdrawals may not be the same
as earnings under federal tax law.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

Premium Taxes. We may make a charge for state and local premium taxes depending on your state of
residence. The tax can range from 0% to 3.5% of each premium payment. We have the right to change this amount
to conform with changes in the law or if you change your state of residence. There is currently no premium tax in
the State of New York.

We deduct the premium tax from your contract value on the income phase payment start date. In the event that you
have selected the Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit rider and you elect to receive income payments under it
rather than the Contract, then we will deduct the premium tax from the MGIB Benefit Base. However, some
jurisdictions impose a premium tax at the time that initial and additional premiums are paid, regardless of when the
income phase payments begin. In those states we may defer collection of the premium taxes from your contract
value and deduct it when you surrender the Contract, when you take an excess withdrawal, or on the income phase
payment start date.

Administrative Charge. We deduct an annual administrative charge on each Contract anniversary, or if you
surrender your Contract prior to a Contract anniversary, at the time we determine the cash surrender value payable to
you. The amount deducted is $30 per Contract unless waived under conditions established by ReliaStar of NY. We
deduct the charge proportionately from all subaccounts in which you are invested. If there is no contract value in
those subaccounts, we will deduct the charge from your Fixed Interest Allocations starting with the guaranteed
interest periods nearest their maturity dates until the charge has been paid.

Transfer Charge. We currently do not deduct any charges for transfers made during a contract year. We have
the right, however, to assess up to $25 for each transfer after the twelfth transfer in a contract year. If such a charge
is assessed, we would deduct the charge from the subaccounts and the Fixed Interest Allocations from which each
such transfer is made in proportion to the amount being transferred from each such subaccount and Fixed Interest
Allocation unless you have chosen to have all charges deducted from a single subaccount. The charge will not apply
to any transfers due to the election of dollar cost averaging, automatic rebalancing and transfers we make to and
from any subaccount specially designated by the Company for such purpose.

Overnight Charge. You may choose to have a $20 overnight charge deducted from the amount of a withdrawal
you would like sent to you by overnight delivery service.

Redemption Fees. If applicable, we may deduct the amount of any redemption fees imposed by the underlying
portfolios as a result of withdrawals, transfers or other fund transactions you initiate. Redemption fees, if any, are
separate and distinct from any transaction charges or other charges deducted from your contract value. For a more
complete description of the funds’ fees and expenses, review each fund’s prospectus.

Charges Deducted from the Subaccounts

Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. The mortality and expense risk charge is deducted each business day.
The amount of the mortality and expense risk charge depends on the option package you have elected. The option
packages constitute different levels of death benefit coverage that are available with the Contract. Please see “Death
Benefit Choices” for more information. The charge is deducted on each business day and is a percentage of average
daily assets based on the assets you have in each subaccount. The mortality and expense risk charge compensates
the Company for death benefit and annuitization risks and the risk that expense charges will not cover actual
expenses. In the event there are any profits from the mortality and expense risk charge, we may use such profits to
finance the distribution of contracts and the premium credit option.

Option Package I Option Package II Option Package III
    Annual     Annual     Annual
    Charge     Charge     Charge

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

Asset-Based Administrative Charge. The amount of the asset-based administrative charge, on an annual
basis, is equal to 0.15% of the assets you have in each subaccount for each since the previous business day. The
charge is deducted on each business day at the rate of .0004% from your assets in each subaccount.

Premium Credit Option Charge. The amount of the asset-based premium credit option charge, on an annual
basis, is equal to 0.50% of the assets you have in each subaccount. The charge is deducted from your assets in each
subaccount on each business day at the rate of 0.0014% for seven years following credit of the premium credit. This
charge will also be deducted from amounts allocated to the Fixed Interest Division, resulting in a 0.50% reduction in
the interest which would otherwise have been credited to your Contract during the seven contract years following
credit of the premium credit. The cost of providing the premium credit is generally covered by the premium credit
option charge, the recapture schedule for forfeiture of the credit on surrenders, withdrawals and death, and, to some
degree, by the mortality and expense risk charge. We expect to make a profit on those contracts under which the
premium credit option is elected.

Optional Rider Charges. Some features and benefits of the Contract, if available, are available by rider for an
additional charge. Please check your application for the Contract to be sure. Once elected, a rider cannot be
canceled independently of the Contract. So long as the rider is in effect, we will deduct a separate quarterly charge
for the optional benefit rider through a pro-rata reduction of the contract value of the subaccounts in which you are
invested. We deduct the rider charge on each of the Contract’s quarterly anniversary dates (defined below) in
arrears, meaning we deduct the first charge on the first quarterly anniversary date following the rider date. If the
rider is added to an existing Contract, the first quarter’s charge will be reduced proportionally for the portion of the
quarter that the rider was not in effect. Rider charges are expressed as a percentage, rounded to the nearest
hundredth of one percent.

A “quarterly anniversary date” is the date three months from the contract date that falls on the same date in the
month as the contract date. For example, if the contract date is February 12, the quarterly anniversary date is May
12. If there is no corresponding date in the month, the quarterly anniversary date will be the last date of such month.
If the quarterly anniversary date falls on a weekend or a holiday, we will use the value as of the subsequent business
day.

For a description of the rider and the defined terms used in connection with the riders, see “Living Benefit Riders.”

Minimum Guaranteed Accumulation Benefit (MGAB). The charge for the MGAB rider is as follows:
 
Waiting Period As an Annual Charge As a Quarterly Charge
10 Year 0.65% of the MGAB Charge Base 0.17% of the MGAB Charge Base

 

The MGAB Charge will be charged during the 10-year waiting period starting on the rider date and ending on
the MGAB Benefit Date. The MGAB Charge Base is the total of premiums and any premium credits, if applicable,
added during the two-year period commencing on the rider date if you purchase the rider on the contract date, or,
your contract value on the rider date plus premiums and any premium credits, if applicable, added during the two-
year period commencing on the rider date if you purchased the rider after the contract date, reduced pro-rata for all
withdrawals taken while the MGAB rider is in effect, including any systematic withdrawals, and reduced pro-rata
for any transfers between subaccounts or between a subaccount and a Fixed Interest Allocation made during the
three-year period before the MGAB date. Withdrawals and transfers may reduce the applicable MGAB Charge
Base by more than the amount withdrawn or transferred. See “Living Benefit Riders.”

Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit (MGIB). The charge for the MGIB rider is as follows:
 
Current Annual Charge Maximum Annual Charge
(Charge Deducted Quarterly)  
0.75% of the MGIB Benefit Base 1.50% of the MGIB Benefit Base

 

Please see “Living Benefit Riders - Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit Rider (the “MGIB Rider”)” for a
description of the MGIB Benefit Base and the MGIB Rate.

ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (ING LifePay Plus) Rider Charge. The
charge for the ING LifePay Plus rider, a living benefit, is deducted quarterly from your contract value:

Maximum Annual Charge   Current Annual Charge  
2.00 % 0.70 %

 

The current annual charge is 0.60% if you purchased this rider before February 2, 2009. The charge is a percentage
of the ING LifePay Plus Base, which we deduct in arrears based on the contract date (contract year versus calendar
year). In arrears means the first charge is deducted at the end of the first quarter following the rider effective date.
If the rider is elected at contract issue, the rider effective date is the same as the contract date. If the rider is added
after contract issue, the rider effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract
anniversary. The charge will be pro-rated when the rider is terminated. Charges will also be pro-rated when your
rider enters either the Automatic Periodic Benefit Status or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. (No charge
is deducted thereafter.) Automatic Periodic Benefit Status or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs if
your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions are met. The current charge can change upon a reset
after your first five contract years. You will never pay more than new issues of this rider, subject to the maximum
annual charge. For more information about how this rider works, including when Lifetime Automatic Periodic
Benefit Status begins, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING LifePay Plus/Joint LifePay Plus Minimum
Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Riders.”

Please Note: The above information pertains to the form of the ING LifePay Plus rider which was available for sale
from May 1, 2009 until March 15, 2010. If you purchased a prior version of the ING LifePay Plus rider, please see
Appendix H for more information.

ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (ING Joint LifePay Plus) Rider
Charge. The charge for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, a living benefit, is deducted quarterly from your contract
value:

Maximum Annual Charge   Current Annual Charge  
2.50 % 0.90 %

 

The current annual charge is 0.80% if you purchased this rider before February 2, 2009. The charge is a percentage
of the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base, which we deduct in arrears based on the contract date (contract year versus
calendar year). In arrears means the first charge is deducted at the end of the first quarter following the rider
effective date. If the rider is elected at contract issue, the rider effective date is the same as the contract date. If the
rider is added after contract issue, the rider effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly
contract anniversary. The charge will be pro-rated when the rider is terminated. Charges will also be pro-rated
when your rider enters either the Automatic Periodic Benefit Status or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status.
(No charge is deducted thereafter.) Automatic Periodic Benefit Status or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit
Status occurs if your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions are met. The current charge can be
subject to change upon a reset after your first five contract years. You will never pay more than new issues of this
rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. For more information about how this rider works, including when
Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status begins, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING Joint LifePay Plus
Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Rider.”

Please Note: The above information pertains to the form of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider which was available
for sale from May 1, 2009 until March 15, 2010. If you purchased a prior version of the ING LifePay Plus rider,
please see Appendix H for more information.

ING GET U.S. Core Portfolio Guarantee Charge. Effective June 21, 2007, no new series of the GET Fund are
available. The GET Fund guarantee charge is deducted each business day during the guarantee period if you elect to
invest in the GET Fund. The amount of the GET Fund guarantee charge is 0.50% and is deducted from amounts
allocated to the GET Fund investment option. This charge compensates us for the cost of providing a guarantee of
accumulation unit values of the GET Fund subaccount. See “The Trust and Funds- ING GET U.S. Core Portfolio.”

Trust and Fund Expenses
As shown in the fund prospectuses and described in the “Fees Deducted by the Funds” section of this prospectus,
each fund deducts management fees from the amounts allocated to the fund. In addition, each fund deducts other
expenses which may include service fees that may be used to compensate service providers, including the company
and its affiliates, for administrative and contract owner services provided on behalf of the fund. Furthermore,
certain funds may deduct a distribution or 12b-1 fee, which is used to finance any activity that is primarily intended
to result in the sale of fund shares. For a more complete description of the funds’ fees and expenses, review
each fund’s prospectus.

The company may receive substantial revenue from each of the funds or the funds’ affiliates, although the amount
and types of revenue vary with respect to each of the funds offered through the Contract. This revenue is one of
several factors we consider when determining the Contract fees and charges and whether to offer a fund through our
policies. Fund revenue is important to the company’s profitability, and it is generally more profitable for us
to offer affiliated funds than to offer unaffiliated funds. You should evaluate the expenses associated with the
funds available through this contract before making a decision to invest.

Assets allocated to affiliated funds, meaning funds managed by Directed Services LLC, ING Investments, LLC or
another company affiliate, generate the largest dollar amount of revenue for the company. Affiliated funds may also
be subadvised by a company affiliate or by an unaffiliated third party. Assets allocated to unaffiliated funds,
meaning funds managed by an unaffiliated third party, generate lesser, but still substantial dollar amounts of revenue
for the company. The company expects to make a profit from this revenue to the extent it exceeds the company’s
expenses, including the payment of sales compensation to our distributors.

Revenue Received from Affiliated Funds.

The revenue received by the company from may be deducted from fund assets and may
include:

· A share of the management fee ;
· Service fees ;
· For certain share classes, compensation paid from 12b-1 ; and
· Other revenues that may be based either on an annual percentage of average net assets held in the fund by
  the company or a percentage of the fund’s management fees.

 

In the case of affiliated funds subadvised by
unaffiliated third parties, any sharing of the management fee between the company and the affiliated investment
adviser is based on the amount of such fee remaining after the subadvisory fee has been paid to the unaffiliated
subadviser. Because subadvisory fees vary by subadviser, varying amounts of revenue may be retained by the
affiliated investment adviser and ultimately shared with the Company. The Company may also receive additional
compensation in the form of intercompany payments from an affiliated fund’s investment advisor or the investment
advisor’s parent in order to allocate revenue and profits across the organization.
These intercompany payments and other revenue received from affiliated funds
provide the company with a financial incentive to offer affiliated funds through the contract rather than unaffiliated
funds.

Revenue Received from Unaffiliated Funds. Revenue received from each of the unaffiliated funds
or their affiliates is based on an annual percentage of the average net assets held in that fund by the company. Some
unaffiliated funds or their affiliates pay us more than others and some of the amounts we receive may be significant.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

16


 

The revenue received by the company or its affiliates from unaffiliated funds may be deducted from fund
assets and may include:

· Service fees;
 
· For certain share classes, compensation paid from 12b-1 fees
  ; and
 
· Additional payments for administrative, recordkeeping or other services that we provide to the funds or
  their affiliates, such as processing purchase and redemption requests, and mailing fund prospectuses,
  periodic reports and proxy materials. These additional payments do not increase directly or indirectly the
  fees and expenses shown in each fund’s prospectus. These additional payments may be used by us to
  finance distribution of the contract.

 

If the unaffiliated fund families currently offered through the
contract that made cash payments to us were individually ranked according to the total amount they paid to the
company or its affiliates in 2010, in connection with the registered annuity contracts issued by the company, that
ranking would be as follows:

· BlackRock Variable Series Funds, Inc.

If the revenues received from the affiliated funds were taken into account when ranking the funds according to the
total dollar amount they paid to the company or its affiliates in 2010, the affiliated funds would be at the top of the
list.

In addition to the types of revenue received from affiliated and unaffiliated funds described above, affiliated and
unaffiliated funds and their investment advisers, subadvisers or affiliates may participate at their own expense in
company sales conferences or educational and training meetings. In relation to such participation, a fund’s
investment adviser, subadviser or affiliate may help offset the cost of the meetings or sponsor events associated with
the meetings. In exchange for these expense offset or sponsorship arrangements, the investment adviser, subadviser
or affiliate may receive certain benefits and access opportunities to company sales representatives and wholesalers
rather than monetary benefits. These benefits and opportunities include, but are not limited to co-branded
marketing materials, targeted marketing sales opportunities, training opportunities at meetings, training modules for
sales personnel and opportunity to host due diligence meetings for representatives and wholesalers.

Certain funds may be structured as “fund of funds.” These funds may have higher fees and expenses than a fund
that invests directly in debt and equity securities because they also incur the fees and expenses of the underlying
funds in which they invest. These funds are affiliated funds, and the underlying funds in which they invest may be
affiliated funds as well. The fund prospectuses disclose the aggregate annual operating expenses of each
fund and its corresponding underlying fund or funds. The funds
are identified in the investment option list in the front of this prospectus.

Please note that certain management personnel and other employees of the company or its affiliates may receive a
portion of their total employment compensation based on the amount of net assets allocated to affiliated funds. See
also “Other Contract Provisions – Selling the Contract.”

THE ANNUITY CONTRACT
 
The Contract described in this prospectus is a deferred combination variable and fixed annuity contract. The
Contract provides a means for you to invest in one or more of the available mutual fund portfolios of the Trusts and
Funds through Separate Account NY-B. It also provides a means for you to invest in a Fixed Interest Allocation
through the Fixed Interest Division. See Appendix C and the Fixed Interest Division Offering Brochure for more
information on the Fixed Interest Division. If you have any questions concerning this Contract, contact your
registered representative or call our Customer Service Center at 1-800-366-0066.

Contract Date and Contract Year
The date the Contract became effective is the contract date. Each 12-month period following the contract date is a
contract year.

Contract Owner
You are the contract owner. You are also the annuitant unless another annuitant is named in the application. You
have the rights and options described in the Contract. One or more persons may own the Contract. If there are
multiple owners named, the age of the oldest owner will determine the applicable death benefit if such death benefit
is available for multiple owners. In the event a selected death benefit is not available, Option Package I will apply.

The death benefit becomes payable when you die. In the case of a sole contract owner who dies before the income
phase begins, we will pay the beneficiary the death benefit then due. The sole contract owner’s estate will be the
beneficiary if no beneficiary has been designated or the beneficiary has predeceased the contract owner. In the case
of a joint owner of the Contract dying before the income phase begins, we will designate the surviving contract
owner as the beneficiary. This will override any previous beneficiary designation. See “Joint Owner,” below.

Joint Owner
For non-qualified Contracts only, joint owners may be named in a written request before the Contract is in effect.
Joint owners may independently exercise transfers and other transactions allowed under the Contract. All other
rights of ownership must be exercised by both owners. Joint owners own equal shares of any benefits accruing or
payments made to them. All rights of a joint owner end at death of that owner if the other joint owner survives. The
entire interest of the deceased joint owner in the Contract will pass to the surviving joint owner and the death benefit
will be payable. Joint owners may only select Option Package I.

Any addition or deletion of a joint owner is treated as a change of owner which may affect the amount of the death
benefit. See “Change of Contract Owner or Beneficiary,” below. If you have elected Option Package II or III, and
you add a joint owner, if the older joint owner is attained age 85 or under, the death benefit from the date of change
will be the Option Package I death benefit. If the older joint owner’s attained age is 86 or over on the date of the
ownership change, the death benefit will be the cash surrender value. The mortality and expense risk charge going
forward will reflect the change in death benefit. Note that returning a Contract to single owner status will not restore
any death benefit. Unless otherwise specified, the term “age” when used for joint owners shall mean the age of the
oldest owner.

Annuitant
The annuitant is the person designated by you to be the measuring life in determining income phase payments. On
and after May 1, 2009, a joint annuitant may also be designated. The annuitant’s age determines when the income
phase must begin and the amount of the income phase payments to be paid. In the case of a non-natural owner and
joint annuitants, the oldest annuitant’s age is used. You are the annuitant unless you choose to name another person.
The annuitant may not be changed after the Contract is in effect, except as described below.

The contract owner will receive the annuity benefits of the Contract if the annuitant is living on the income phase
payment start date. If the annuitant dies before the income phase payment start date and a contingent annuitant has
been named, the contingent annuitant becomes the annuitant (unless the contract owner is not an individual, in
which case the death benefit becomes payable).

If there is no contingent annuitant when the annuitant dies before the income phase payment start date, the contract
owner will become the annuitant. In the event of joint owners, the youngest will be the contingent annuitant, unless
you elect otherwise. The contract owner may designate a new annuitant within 60 days of the death of the annuitant.

When the annuitant dies before the income phase payment start date and the contract owner is not an individual, we
will pay the designated beneficiary the death benefit then due. If a beneficiary has not been designated, or if there is
no designated beneficiary living, the contract owner will be the beneficiary. If the annuitant was the sole contract
owner and there is no beneficiary designation, the annuitant’s estate will be the beneficiary.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

18


 

Regardless of whether a death benefit is payable, if the annuitant dies and any contract owner is not an individual,
distribution rules under federal tax law will apply. You should consult your tax advisor for more information if the
contract owner is not an individual.

Beneficiary
The beneficiary is named by you in a written request. The beneficiary is the person who receives any death benefit
proceeds and who may become the successor contract owner if the contract owner who is a spouse (or the annuitant
if the contract owner is other than an individual) dies before the income phase payment start date. We pay death
benefits to the primary beneficiary (unless there are joint owners, in which case death proceeds are payable to the
surviving owner(s)).

If the beneficiary dies before the annuitant or the contract owner, the death benefit proceeds are paid to the
contingent beneficiary, if any. If there is no surviving beneficiary, we pay the death benefit proceeds to the contract
owner’s estate.

One or more persons may be a beneficiary or contingent beneficiary. In the case of more than one beneficiary, we
will assume any death benefit proceeds are to be paid in equal shares to the surviving beneficiaries, unless you
indicate otherwise in writing.

Change of Contract Owner or Beneficiary
During the annuitant’s lifetime, you may transfer ownership of a non-qualified Contract. A change in ownership
may affect the amount of the death benefit, the guaranteed minimum death benefit and/or the death benefit option
applied to the Contract. The new owner’s age, as of the date of the change, will be used as the basis for determining
the applicable benefits and charges. The new owner’s death will determine when a death benefit is payable.

If you have elected Option Package I, the death benefit will continue if the new owner is age 85 or under on the date
of the ownership change. For Option Package II or III, if the new owner is age 79 or under on the date that
ownership changes, the death benefit will continue. If the new owner is age 80 to 85, under Option Package II or
III, the death benefit will end, and the death benefit will become the Option Package I death benefit. For all death
benefit options, 1) if the new owner’s attained age is 86 or over on the date of the ownership change, or 2) if the new
owner is not an individual (other than a Trust for the benefit of the owner or annuitant), the death benefit will be the
cash surrender value. The mortality and expense risk charge going forward will reflect the change in death benefit.
Please note that once a death benefit has been changed due to a change in owner, it will not be restored by a
subsequent change to a younger owner.

You have the right to change beneficiaries during the annuitant’s lifetime unless you have designated an irrevocable
beneficiary. If you have designated an irrevocable beneficiary, you and the irrevocable beneficiary may have to act
together to exercise some of the rights and options under the Contract. You may also restrict a beneficiary’s right to
elect an annuity option or receive a lump sum payment. If so, such rights or options will not be available to the
beneficiary. In the event of joint owners, all must agree to change a beneficiary.

In the event of a death claim, we will honor the form of payment of the death benefit specified by the beneficiary to
the extent permitted under Section 72(s) of the Tax Code. You may also restrict a beneficiary’s right to elect an
income phase payment option or receive a lump-sum payment. If so, such rights or options will not be available to
the beneficiary.

All requests for changes must be in writing and submitted to our Customer Service Center in good order. Please
date your request. The change will be effective as of the day you sign the request. The change will not affect any
payment made or action taken by us before recording the change.

A change of owner likely has tax consequences. See “Federal Tax Considerations” in this prospectus.

Purchase and Availability of the Contract

We are no longer offering the Contract for sale to new purchasers.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

19


 

There are three option packages available under the Contract. You select an option package at the time of
application. Each option package is unique. The minimum initial payment to purchase the Contract depends on the
option package that you elect.

  Option Package I Option Package II Option Package III
Minimum Initial $15,000 (non-qualified) $5,000 (non-qualified) $5,000 (non-qualified)
Payment $1,500 (qualified) $1,500 (qualified) $1,500 (qualified)

 

The maximum issue age is 80 or younger at the time of application to purchase a Contract with Option Package I.
With Option Package II or Option Package III, the maximum issue age is also 80 or younger at the time of
application, SO LONG AS you elect the MGAB rider, the ING LifePay Plus rider or the ING Joint LifePay Plus
rider. Otherwise, the maximum issue age is 75 for a Contract with Option Package II or Option Package III. Before
April 28, 2008, the maximum issue age was 80 for a Contract with either Option Package II or Option Package III.

You may make additional premium payments up to the contract anniversary after your 86th birthday. The minimum
additional premium payment we will accept is $50 regardless of the option package you select. Under certain
circumstances, we may waive the minimum premium payment requirement. We may also change the minimum
initial or additional premium requirements for certain group or sponsored arrangements. Any initial or additional
premium payment that would cause the contract value of all annuities that you maintain with us to exceed
$1,500,000 requires our prior approval.

The Contract is designed for people seeking long-term tax-deferred accumulation of assets, generally for retirement
or other long-term purposes. The tax-deferred feature is more attractive to people in high federal and state tax
brackets. You should not buy this Contract: (1) if you are looking for a short-term investment; (2) if you cannot risk
getting back less money than you put in; or (3) if your assets are in a plan which provides for tax-deferral and you
see no other reason to purchase this Contract. When considering an investment in the Contract, you should
consult with your investment professional about your financial goals, investment time horizon and risk
tolerance.

Replacing an existing insurance contract with this Contract may not be beneficial to you. Before purchasing
the Contract, determine whether your existing contract will be subject to any fees or penalties upon
surrender. Also, compare the fees, charges, coverage provisions and limitations, if any, of your existing
contract with those of the Contract described in this prospectus.

IRAs and other qualified plans already have the tax-deferral feature found in this Contract. For an additional cost,
the Contract provides other features and benefits including death benefits and the ability to receive a lifetime
income. You should not purchase a qualified Contract unless you want these other features and benefits, taking into
account their cost. See “Charges and Fees” in this prospectus. If you are considering an Enhanced Death Benefit
Option and your contract will be an IRA, see “Federal Tax Considerations Tax Consequences of Living
Benefits and Death Benefit” in this prospectus.

Loans are not allowed on a Contract issued as a Tax Code Section 403(b) annuity.

We and our affiliates offer other variable products that may offer some of the same investment portfolios. These
products have different benefits and charges, and may or may not better match your needs. If you are interested in
learning more about these other products, contact our Customer Service Center or your registered representative.

Crediting of Premium Payments
We will process your initial premium and any premium credits, if applicable, within 2 business days after receipt
and allocate the payment according to the instructions you specify at the accumulation unit value next determined, if
the application and all information necessary for processing the Contract are complete. Subsequent premium
payments will be processed within 1 business day if we receive all necessary information. In certain states we also
accept initial and additional premium payments by wire order. Wire transmittals must be accompanied by sufficient
electronically transmitted data. We may retain your initial premium payment for up to 5 business days while
attempting to complete an incomplete application. If the application cannot be completed within this period, we will

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

20


 

inform you of the reasons for the delay. We will also return the premium payment immediately unless you direct us
to hold the premium payment until the application is completed. If you choose to have us hold the premium
payment, it will be held in a non-interest bearing account.

If a subaccount is not available or requested in error, we will make inquiry about a replacement subaccount. If we
are unable to reach you or your representative within 5 days, we will consider the application incomplete. Once the
completed application is received, we will allocate the payment to the subaccounts of Separate Account NY-B
specified by you within 2 business days.

If your premium payment was transmitted by wire order from your broker-dealer, we will follow one of the
following two procedures after we receive and accept the wire order and investment instructions. The procedure we
follow depends on state availability and the procedures of your broker-dealer.

1 ) If either your state or broker-dealer do not permit us to issue a Contract without an application, we
    reserve the right to rescind the Contract if we do not receive and accept a properly completed
    application or enrollment form within five days of the premium payment. If we do not receive the
    application or form within five days of the premium payment, we will refund the contract value plus
    any charges we deducted, and the Contract will be voided. Some states require that we return the
    premium paid, in which case we will comply.
 
2 ) If your state and broker-dealer allow us to issue a Contract without an application, we will issue and
    mail the Contract to you or your representative, together with a Contract Acknowledgement and
    Delivery Statement for your execution. Until our Customer Service Center receives the executed
    Contract Acknowledgement and Delivery Statement, neither you nor the broker-dealer may execute
    any financial transactions on your Contract unless they are requested in writing by you. We may
    require additional information before complying with your request (e.g. signature guarantee).

 

We will make inquiry to discover any missing information related to subsequent payments. We will allocate the
subsequent payment(s) pro-rata according to the current variable subaccount allocation unless you specify
otherwise. Any fixed allocation(s) will not be considered in the pro-rata calculations. If a subaccount is no longer
available (including due to a fund purchase restriction) or requested in error, we will allocate the subsequent
payment(s) proportionally among the other subaccount(s) in your current allocation. For any subsequent premium
payments, the payment and any premium credits, if applicable, designated for a subaccount of Separate Account
NY-B, will be credited at the accumulation unit value next determined after receipt of your premium payment and
instructions.

Once we allocate your premium payment and any premium credit, if applicable, to the subaccounts selected by you,
we convert the premium payment into accumulation units. We divide the amount of the premium payment allocated
to a particular subaccount by the value of an accumulation unit for the subaccount to determine the number of
accumulation units of the subaccount to be held in Separate Account NY-B with respect to your Contract. The net
investment results of each subaccount vary with its investment performance.

We may require that an initial premium designated for a subaccount of Separate Account NY-B or the Fixed Interest
Division be allocated with the added premium credit, if applicable, to a subaccount specially designated by the
Company (currently, the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio) during the free look period. After the free look period, we
will convert your contract value (your initial premium plus any earnings less any expenses) into accumulation units
of the subaccounts you previously selected. The accumulation units will be allocated based on the accumulation
unit value next computed for each subaccount. Initial premiums designated for Fixed Interest Allocations will be
allocated to a Fixed Interest Allocation with the guaranteed interest period you have chosen; however, in the future
we may allocate the premiums to the specially designated subaccount during the free look period.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

21


 

Additional Credit to Premium
At the time of application, you may elect the premium credit option. If you so elect, a credit will be added to your
Contract based on all premium payments received during the first contract year (“initial premium”). The credit will
be 4% of the initial premium and will be allocated among each subaccount and Fixed Interest Allocation you have
selected in proportion to your allocation of the applicable premium in each investment option.

Currently, the premium credit option is available only if elected at the time of application prior to issuance of the
Contract and in combination with the Contract’s other optional riders, subject to the following limitation. For
Contracts purchased before September 4, 2007, the premium credit option was not available with the MGIB rider.
We reserve the right to make the premium credit option available to inforce contract owners. Also, the premium
credit option may not be available through all broker-dealers.

We may increase, decrease or discontinue the premium credit at our discretion. We will give you at least 45 days
notice of any planned change to the premium credit option.

The daily mortality and expense risk charge and the daily administrative charge under this Contract are greater than
that under contracts not providing a premium credit. There is also a separate charge for the premium credit which is
an asset-based charge deducted daily from your contract value. Please see “Charges and Fees” for a description of
this charge.

The premium credit constitutes earnings (and not premiums paid by you) for federal tax purposes.

In any of the following circumstances, we deduct part or all of a premium credit from the amount we pay to you or
your beneficiary:

1 ) If you return your Contract within the free look period, we will deduct the entire premium credit from
    the refund amount;
 
2 ) If a death benefit becomes payable, we will deduct any premium credits added to your Contract after or
    within 12 months of the date of death; and
 
3 ) If you surrender your Contract or take a withdrawal, we will deduct a portion of the premium credit
    added to your contract value based on the percentage of first year premium withdrawn and the contract
    year of surrender or withdrawal in accordance with the following table:

 

Contract Year of Percentage of Premium Credit  
Surrender or Forfeited (based on percentage of  
Withdrawal first year premium withdrawn)  
Years 1-2 100 %
Years 3-4 75 %
Years 5-6 50 %
Year 7 25 %
Years 8+ 0 %

 

If we deduct a credit from any amount we pay to you, we will deduct the full dollar amount of the premium credit.
You will retain any gains, and you will also bear any losses, that are attributable to the premium credit we deduct.
No forfeiture of premium credit applies to withdrawals of contract value representing the annual free withdrawal
amount or to withdrawals of contract value representing earnings.

There may be circumstances under which the contract owner may be worse off from having received a
premium credit. For example, this could occur if the contract owner returns the Contract during the
applicable free look period. Upon a free look, we recapture the premium credit that had been credited. If the
state law provides that contract value is returned on a free look, and if the performance of the applicable
subaccounts has been negative during that period, we will return the contract value less the premium credit.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

22


 

Negative performance associated with the premium credit will reduce the contract value more than if the
premium credit had not been applied.

Income Phase Payment Start Date
The income phase payment start date is the date you start receiving income phase payments under your Contract.
The Contract, like all deferred variable annuity contracts, has two phases: the accumulation phase; and the income
phase. The accumulation phase is the period between the contract date and the income phase payment start date.
The income phase begins when you start receiving regular income phase payments from your Contract on the
income phase payment start date.

Anti-Money Laundering
In order to protect against the possible misuse of our products in money laundering or terrorist financing, we have
adopted an anti-money laundering program satisfying the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act and other current
anti-money laundering laws. Among other things, this program requires us, our agents and customers to comply with
certain procedures and standards that serve to assure that our customers’ identities are properly verified and that
premiums and loan repayments are not derived from improper sources.

Under our anti-money laundering program, we may require policy owners, insured persons and/or beneficiaries to
provide sufficient evidence of identification, and we reserve the right to verify any information provided to us by
accessing information databases maintained internally or by outside firms.

We may also refuse to accept certain forms of premium payments or loan repayments (traveler’s cheques, cashier's
checks, bank drafts, bank checks and treasurer's checks, for example) or restrict the amount of certain forms of
premium payments or loan repayments (money orders totaling more than $5,000.00, for example). In addition, we
may require information as to why a particular form of payment was used (third party checks, for example) and the
source of the funds of such payment in order to determine whether or not we will accept it. Use of an unacceptable
form of payment may result in us returning the payment and not issuing the Contract.

Applicable laws designed to prevent terrorist financing and money laundering might, in certain
circumstances, require us to block certain transactions until authorization is received from the appropriate
regulator. We may also be required to provide additional information about you and your policy to
government regulators.

Our anti-money laundering program is subject to change without notice to take account of changes in applicable
laws or regulations and our ongoing assessment of our exposure to illegal activity.

Administrative Procedures
We may accept a request for Contract service in writing, by telephone, or other approved electronic means, subject
to our administrative procedures, which vary depending on the type of service requested and may include proper
completion of certain forms, providing appropriate identifying information, and/or other administrative
requirements. We will process your request at the contract value next determined only after you have met all
administrative requirements. Please be advised that the risk of fraudulent transaction is increased with telephonic or
electronic instructions (for example, a facsimile withdrawal request form), even if appropriate identifying
information is provided.

Contract Value
We determine your contract value on a daily basis beginning on the contract date. Your contract value is the sum of
(a) the contract value in the Fixed Interest Allocations, and (b) the contract value in each subaccount in which you
are invested.

Contract Value in the Subaccounts. On the contract date, the contract value in the subaccount in which you
are invested is equal to the initial premium paid plus any premium credit, if applicable, that was designated to be
allocated to the subaccount. On the contract date, we allocate your contract value to each subaccount and/or a Fixed
Interest Allocation specified by you.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

23


 

On each business day after the contract date, we calculate the amount of contract value in each subaccount as
follows:

1 ) We take the contract value in the subaccount at the end of the preceding business day.
2 ) We multiply (1) by the subaccount’s Net Rate of Return since the preceding business day.
3 ) We add (1) and (2).
4 ) We add to (3) any additional premium payments plus any premium credits, if applicable, and then add
    or subtract any transfers to or from that subaccount.
5 ) We subtract from (4) any withdrawals and any related charges, and then subtract any contract fees and
    premium taxes.

 

Cash Surrender Value
The cash surrender value is the amount you receive when you surrender the Contract. The cash surrender value will
fluctuate daily based on the investment results of the subaccounts in which you are invested and interest credited to
Fixed Interest Allocations. See the Fixed Interest Division Offering Brochure for a description of the calculation of
values under any Fixed Interest Allocation. We do not guarantee any minimum cash surrender value. On any date
during the accumulation phase, we calculate the cash surrender value as follows: we start with your contract value,
then we deduct any surrender charge, any charge for premium taxes, the annual contract administrative fee, and any
other charges incurred but not yet deducted.

Surrendering to Receive the Cash Surrender Value. You may surrender the Contract at any time while the
annuitant is living and before the income phase payment start date. A surrender will be effective on the date your
written request and the Contract are received at our Customer Service Center. We will determine and pay the cash
surrender value at the price next determined after receipt of all paperwork required in order for us to process your
surrender. Once paid, all benefits under the Contract will be terminated. For administrative purposes, we will
transfer your money to a specially designated subaccount (currently the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio) prior to
processing the surrender. This transfer will have no effect on your cash surrender value. You may receive the cash
surrender value in a single sum payment or apply it under one or more annuity options. We will usually pay the
cash surrender value within 7 days.

Consult your tax advisor regarding the tax consequences associated with surrendering your Contract. A surrender
made before you reach age 59½ may result in a 10% tax penalty. See “Federal Tax Considerations” for more
details.

The Subaccounts
Each of the subaccounts of Separate Account NY-B offered under this prospectus invests in an investment portfolio
with its own distinct investment objectives and policies. Each subaccount of Separate Account NY-B invests in a
corresponding portfolio of a Trust or Fund.

Addition, Deletion or Substitution of Subaccounts and Other Changes
We may make additional subaccounts available to you under the Contract. These subaccounts will invest in
investment portfolios we find suitable for your Contract. We may also withdraw or substitute investment portfolios,
subject to the conditions in your Contract and compliance with regulatory requirements, including prior SEC
approval.

We may amend the Contract to conform to applicable laws or governmental regulations. If we feel that investment
in any of the investment portfolios has become inappropriate to the purposes of the Contract, we may, with approval
of the SEC (and any other regulatory agency, if required), combine two or more accounts or substitute another
portfolio for existing and future investments. If you have elected the dollar cost averaging, systematic withdrawals,
or automatic rebalancing programs or if you have other outstanding instructions, and we substitute or otherwise
eliminate a portfolio which is subject to those instructions, we will execute your instructions using the substitute or

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

24


 

proposed replacement portfolio unless you request otherwise. The substitute or proposed replacement portfolio may
have higher fees and charges than any portfolio it replaces.

We also reserve the right, subject to SEC approval, to: (i) deregister Separate Account NY-B under the 1940 Act;
(ii) operate Separate Account NY-B as a management company under the 1940 Act if it is operating as a unit
investment trust; (iii) operate Separate Account NY-B as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act if it is operating
as a managed separate account; (iv) restrict or eliminate any voting rights as to Separate Account NY-B; and (v)
combine Separate Account NY-B with other accounts.

We will, of course, provide you with written notice before any of these changes are effected.

The Fixed Interest Allocation (Fixed Interest Division)
The Fixed Interest Allocation is the Fixed Interest Division, which is part of the ReliaStar of New York general
account. The general account contains all of the assets of ReliaStar of New York other than those in certain separate
accounts. Allocation of any amount to the Fixed Interest Division does not entitle you to share directly in the
performance of these assets. Assets supporting amounts allocated to the Fixed Interest Division are available to
fund the claims of all classes of our customers, owners, and other creditors. See Appendix C and the Fixed Interest
Division Offering Brochure for more information. You may not allocate contract value to the Fixed Interest
Division if you elect one of the living benefit riders.

Other Contracts
We and our affiliates offer various other products with different features and terms than the Contracts, and that may
offer some or all of the same investment portfolios. These products have different benefits, fees and charges, and
may or may not better match your needs. Please note that some of the Company’s management personnel and
certain other employees may receive a portion of their employment compensation based on the amount of Contract
values allocated to investment portfolios of Trusts or Funds affiliated with ING. You should be aware that there are
alternative options available, and, if you are interested in learning more about these other products, contact our
Customer Service Center or your registered representative. Also, broker/dealers selling the Contract may limit its
availability or the availability of an optional feature (for example, by imposing restrictions on eligibility), or decline
to make an optional feature available. Please talk to your registered representative for further details.

LIVING BENEFIT RIDERS
 
You may elect one of the optional benefit riders discussed below. You may add only one of these riders to your
Contract. Each rider has a separate charge. Please note that if you elect one of the living benefit riders, you
may not allocate premium or contract value to the GET Fund or to the Fixed Interest Allocations. Once
elected, the riders generally may not be cancelled. You may not remove the rider and charges will be assessed
regardless of the performance of your Contract. The optional benefit riders terminate upon surrender of the
Contract. Please see “Charges and Fees — Optional Rider Charges” for information on rider charges.
 
The optional riders may not be available for all investors. You should analyze each rider thoroughly and
understand it completely before you select it. The optional riders do not guarantee any return of principal or
premium payments and do not guarantee performance of any specific investment portfolio under the
contract. The ING LifePay Plus and ING Joint LifePay Plus riders may also impact the death benefit
amount under the Contract. More information about earlier versions of the guaranteed withdrawal benefit
riders (including lifetime versions) is in the Appendices. You should consult a qualified financial adviser in
evaluating the riders. Our Customer Service Center may be able to answer your questions. The telephone
number is (800) 366-0066.
 
Minimum Guaranteed Accumulation Benefit Rider (the “MGAB Rider”). The MGAB rider is an optional
benefit which provides you with an MGAB intended to guarantee a minimum contract value at the end of a specified
waiting period. The waiting period is 10 years, beginning on the rider date, and the MGAB Charge is deducted only
during the 10 year waiting period. Only premiums added to your Contract during the first two-year period after your
rider date and any premium credits, if applicable, are included in the MGAB Base. Any additional premium

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

25


 

payments added after the second rider anniversary are not included in the MGAB Base. Thus, the MGAB rider may
not be appropriate for you if you plan to add substantial premium payments after your second rider anniversary. If
you elect the MGAB rider, you may not allocate contract value to the GET Fund subaccount or to the Fixed Interest
Division.

The MGAB is a one-time adjustment to your contract value if your contract value on the MGAB Date is less than
the MGAB Base. The MGAB Date is the next business day after the applicable waiting period. We calculate your
Minimum Guaranteed Accumulation Benefit on this date. The MGAB rider may offer you protection if your
Contract loses value during the MGAB waiting period. For a discussion of the charges we deduct under the MGAB
rider, see “Optional Rider Charges.”

The MGAB rider has a waiting period of ten years and, other than for certain transfers, guarantees that your contract
value at the end of ten years will at least equal your initial premium payment plus the premium credit, if applicable,
reduced pro-rata for withdrawals. Transfers between subaccounts or between a subaccount and a Fixed Interest
Allocation within 3 years of the MGAB Date will also reduce the MGAB Base pro-rata (see examples below).

Calculating the MGAB. We calculate your MGAB as follows:

1 ) We first determine your MGAB Base. The MGAB Base is only a calculation used to determine the
    MGAB. It does not represent a contract value, nor does it guarantee performance of the subaccounts in
    which you are invested. It is also not used in determining the amount of your annuity income, cash
    surrender value and death benefits.
 
    If you purchase the MGAB optional rider as of the contract date, the MGAB Base is the initial
    premium, and the premium credit, if applicable, increased by eligible premiums, less all withdrawals
    and, less transfers made within 3 years prior to the MGAB Date. Eligible premiums are premiums
    added within two years after the rider date. Premiums added in the third and later rider years are not
    included in the MGAB Base.
 
    If you purchase the MGAB optional benefit rider after the contract date, contract value is used as the
    initial value. The MGAB Base equals the contract value, plus eligible premiums, adjusted for
    withdrawals and transfers.
 
    We use the MGAB Charge Base to determine the periodic MGAB rider charges. The MGAB Charge
    Base equals the eligible premiums, plus any premium credits, if applicable, adjusted for subsequent
    withdrawals and transfers. Withdrawals reduce the MGAB Base and MGAB Charge Base on a pro-
    rata basis. The percentage reduction in the MGAB Base and the MGAB Charge Base equals the
    percentage reduction in contract value resulting from the withdrawal. This means that the MGAB
    Base and MGAB Charge Base are reduced for withdrawals by the same proportion that the withdrawal
    reduces the contract value. For example, if the contract value is reduced by 25% as the result of a
    withdrawal, the MGAB Base and the MBAG Charge Base are also reduced by 25% (rather than by the
    amount of the withdrawal).
 
    Any transfer between subaccounts or between a subaccount and a Fixed Interest Allocation within 3
    years of the MGAB Date reduces the MGAB Base and MGAB Charge Base on a pro-rata basis, based
    on the percentage of contract value transferred. Adjustments for such transfers are made as if the
    transfer was a withdrawal followed by a premium payment to the new investment option, which is not
    an eligible premium for MGAB benefit purposes.
 
2 ) We then subtract your contract value on the MGAB Date from your MGAB Base. The contract
    value that we subtract includes both the contract value in the subaccounts in which you are invested
    and the contract value in your Fixed Interest Allocations, if any.
 
3 ) Any positive difference is your MGAB. If there is a MGAB, we will automatically credit it on the
    MGAB Date to the subaccounts in which you are invested pro-rata based on the proportion of your
    contract value in the subaccounts on that date. If you do not have an investment in any subaccount on

the MGAB Date, we will allocate the MGAB to the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio on your behalf. After
we credit the MGAB, the amount of your annuity income, cash surrender value and death benefits will
reflect the crediting of the MGAB to your contract value to the extent the contract value is used to
determine such value.

Purchase. The MGAB rider is no longer available for purchase. To purchase the MGAB rider, you must have
been age 80 or younger on the rider date. The waiting period must end at or before your annuity start date. The
MGAB rider must have been purchased (i) on the contract date, and (ii) within 30 days following the contract date.
For contracts issued more than 30 days before the date this rider first became available in your state, the Company
could, in its discretion allow purchase of this rider beyond such date.

The MGAB Charge Base. The MGAB Charge Base is the total of premiums and premium credits, if
applicable, added during the two-year period commencing on the rider date if you purchase the rider on the contract
date, or your contract value on the rider date plus premiums and premium credits, if applicable, added during the
two-year period commencing on the rider date if you purchased the rider after the contract date, reduced pro-rata for
all withdrawals taken while the MGAB rider is in effect, and reduced pro-rata for transfers made during the three
year period before the MGAB Date. Withdrawals and transfers may reduce the applicable MGAB Charge Base by
more than the amount withdrawn or transferred.

The MGAB Date. The MGAB Date is the date the MGAB rider becomes effective. If you purchased the
MGAB rider on the contract date or added the MGAB rider within 30 days following the contract date, the MGAB
Date is your 10th contract anniversary. If you added the MGAB rider during the 30-day period preceding your first
contract anniversary after the date of this prospectus, your MGAB Date will be the first contract anniversary
occurring after 10 years after the rider date. The MGAB rider is not available if the MGAB Date would fall beyond
the latest annuity start date.

Notification. We will report any crediting of the MGAB in your first quarterly statement following the MGAB
Date.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the MGAB rider, you may not cancel it unless you cancel the Contract
during the Contract’s free look period, which also automatically cancels the MGAB rider. Once the Contract
continues beyond the free look period, you may not cancel the MGAB rider.

Termination. The MGAB rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefit offered by the rider is
intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The
MGAB rider automatically terminates if you:

· annuitize, surrender or otherwise terminate your Contract during the accumulation phase; or
· die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple contract owners, or at death
  of annuitant if contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue
  the Contract.

 

The MGAB rider will also terminate if there is a change in contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary
continuation on your death), including addition of a joint owner.

Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit Rider (the “MGIB Rider”). The MGIB rider is an optional benefit which
guarantees a minimum amount of annuity income will be available to you if you annuitize on the MGIB Date (as
defined below), regardless of fluctuating market conditions. Please note that if you elect the MGIB rider, you may
not allocate contract value to the Fixed Interest Division. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the MGIB rider.
The minimum guaranteed amount of annuity income will depend on the amount of premiums you pay during the
five contract years after you purchase the rider, the MGIB Rate (as defined below), the adjustment for Special Fund
transfers, and any withdrawals you take while the MGIB rider is in effect. Investing in Special Funds may limit the
MGIB benefit because for purposes of determining the MGIB Benefit Base, Special Funds allocations are not
subject to accumulation at the MGIB Rate, and withdrawals and transfers from Special Funds are not dollar-for-
dollar, but pro-rata, meaning the MGIB Benefit Base may be reduced by the same proportion that contract value
allocated to Special Funds is reduced. For Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased on and after September 4,
2007, the minimum guaranteed amount will also include any eligible premium credits.

Purchase. The MGIB rider is no longer available for purchase , including purchase by owners of existing
Contracts. Previously, you must have been age 75 or younger on the rider date and the ten-year waiting period must
end at or prior to the latest annuity start date to purchase the MGIB rider. Before April 28, 2008, the maximum age
was 79. Some broker dealers may limit availability of the rider to younger ages. The MGIB rider must have been
purchased on the contract date. Previously, the Company in its discretion could allow the purchase of this rider after
the contract date. There is a ten-year waiting period before you can annuitize under the MGIB rider. If you
purchased this rider prior to August 21, 2006, the features and benefits of your rider may differ from those described
below, please refer to your contract for more details.

The MGIB Date. The MGIB Date is the date on which you may exercise your right to begin receiving annuity
income payments pursuant to the MGIB Rider. The MGIB Date always coincides with your Contract’s anniversary
date. You may not exercise your right to begin receiving annuity income payments pursuant to the MGIB Rider
until the MGIB Date that is at least ten years after the rider date.

Charges. The charge we deduct under the MGIB Rider is 0.75% of the MGIB Benefit Base. The calculation
of the MGIB Benefit Base is described in “Determining the MGIB Annuity Income,” below. The MGIB rider
automatically terminates if the contract value is insufficient to pay the charge for the MGIB rider.

How the MGIB Rider Works. Ordinarily, the amount of income that will be available to you on the annuity
start date is based on your contract value, the annuity option you selected and the guaranteed or the income factors
in effect on the date you annuitize. If you purchase the MGIB rider, the amount of income that will be available to
you upon annuitization on the MGIB Date is the greatest of:

1 ) your annuity income based on your contract value on the MGIB Date applied to the guaranteed income
    factors specified in your Contract for the annuity option you selected;

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

28


 

2 ) your annuity income based on your contract value on the MGIB Date applied to the then-current
    income factors in effect for the annuity option you selected; or
 
3 ) the MGIB annuity income based on your MGIB Benefit Base on the MGIB Date applied to the MGIB
    income factors specified in your rider for the MGIB annuity option you selected. Prior to applying the
    MGIB income factors, we will adjust the MGIB Benefit Base for any premium tax recovery that would
    otherwise apply at annuitization.

 

The guaranteed factors contained in the MGIB rider generally provide lower payout per $1,000 of value applied than
the guaranteed factors found in your Contract. Although the minimum income provided under the rider can be
determined in advance, the contract value in the future is unknown, so the income provided under a contract with the
MGIB rider attached may be greater or less than the income that would be provided under the Contract without the
rider. Generally, the income calculated under the rider will be greater than the income provided under the Contract
whenever the MGIB Benefit Base (greater of the Rollup and Ratchet Bases) is sufficiently in excess of the contract
value to offset the additional conservatism reflected in the rider’s income factors compared to those in the Contract.
The income factors in the MGIB rider generally reflect a lower interest rate and more conservative mortality than
the income factors in the Contract. The degree of relative excess that the income factors require to produce more
income will vary for each individual circumstance. If the contract value exceeds the MGIB Benefit Base at time of
annuitization, the Contract will always produce greater income than the rider. Please see Appendix E — Examples
of Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit Calculation.

The MGIB Benefit Base is only a calculation used to determine the MGIB annuity income. The MGIB Benefit Base
does not represent a contract value, nor does it guarantee performance of the subaccounts in which you are invested.
It is also not used in determining the amount of your cash surrender value and death benefits. Any reset of contract
value under provisions of the Contract or other riders will not increase the MGIB Benefit Base or Maximum MGIB
Base (as defined below).

The MGIB Benefit Base is tracked separately for Covered and Special Funds, based on initial allocation of premium
and any premium credit, if applicable. Contract value (not eligible premium) is used as the initial value if the rider
is added after the contract date. The MGIB Benefit Base also will include subsequent eligible premiums, if any,
which are premiums and related premium credits paid within five years of purchasing the MGIB rider. (Premiums
and related premium credits paid after the rider date are excluded.) The following investment options are designated
as Special Funds for purposes of calculating the MGIB Benefit Base: the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio. The
ProFunds VP Rising Rates Opportunity Portfolio is also a Special Fund, but closed to new allocations, effective
April 30, 2007. For more information about Covered Funds and Special Funds, please see “The Trust and Funds -
Covered Funds and Special Funds.”

Prior to your latest annuity start date, you may choose to exercise your right to receive payments under the MGIB
rider. Payments under the rider begin on the MGIB Date. We require a 10-year waiting period before you can
annuitize the MGIB rider benefit. The MGIB must be exercised in the 30-day period prior to the end of the waiting
period or any subsequent contract anniversary. At your request, the Company may in its discretion extend the latest
contract annuity start date without extending the MGIB Date.

Determining the MGIB Annuity Income. On the MGIB Date, we calculate your MGIB annuity income as
follows:

1 ) We first determine your MGIB Benefit Base: The MGIB Benefit Base is equal to the greater of the
    MGIB Rollup Base and the MGIB Ratchet Base.
 
    a) Calculation of MGIB Rollup Base
 
      The MGIB Rollup Base is equal to the lesser of the Maximum MGIB Base and the sum of (a), and
      (b) where:
 
      (a) is the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds;
      (b) is the MGIB Rollup Base for Special Funds;

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

29


 

The Maximum MGIB Base applicable to the MGIB Rollup Base is 250% of eligible premiums
(including any related premium credits), adjusted pro-rata for withdrawals. This means that the
Maximum MGIB Base is reduced for withdrawals by the same proportion that the withdrawal
reduces the contract value. The Maximum MGIB Base is not allocated by Fund category.

The MGIB Rate. Calculation of the MGIB Rollup Base will be impacted by the MGIB Rate.
The MGIB Rate is an annual effective rate at which the eligible premiums (including any related
premium credits) accumulate, which is currently 6%. As noted below, eligible premiums
(including any related premium credits) accumulate at the MGIB Rate only up until the oldest
contract owner reaches age 80 or the MGIB Rollup Base reaches the Maximum MGIB Base, and
only to the extent that premiums are invested in Covered Funds.

For example, assume a contract was issued on September 4, 2007 with an initial premium of
$10,000, and the issue age of the contract owner was age 60, with an MGIB Date of September 4,
2017. Assuming 100% of the premium was allocated to Covered Funds, the MGIB Rollup Base
would be $17,908 on the MGIB Date, the result of the $10,000 initial premium multiplied by the
6% MGIB Rate annually for the 10-year period between the issue date and the MGIB Date.

For Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased before May 1, 2009, the MGIB Rate is 7%.

The MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Covered Funds equals the eligible premiums (including
any related premium credits), allocated to Covered Funds, adjusted for subsequent withdrawals
and transfers taken or made while the MGIB rider is in effect, accumulated at the MGIB Rate to
the earlier of the oldest owner reaching age 80 and the MGIB Rollup Base reaching the Maximum
MGIB Base. The MGIB Rollup Base accumulates at 0% thereafter. The MGIB Rate is currently
6% (7% for Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased before May 1, 2009). The MGIB Rate is an
annual effective rate. We may, at our discretion, discontinue offering this rate. The MGIB Rate
will not change for those contracts that have already purchased the MGIB rider.

The MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Special Funds equals the eligible premiums (including any
related premium credits), allocated to Special Funds, adjusted for subsequent withdrawals and
transfers taken or made while the MGIB rider is in effect. The MGIB Rate does not apply to the
MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Special Funds, so the MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Special
Funds does not accumulate.

Withdrawals reduce the MGIB Rollup Base on a pro-rata basis. The percentage reduction in the
MGIB Rollup Base for each Fund category (i.e., Covered or Special) equals the percentage
reduction in contract value in that Fund category resulting from the withdrawal. This means that
the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds is reduced for withdrawals by the
same proportion that the withdrawal reduces the contract value allocated to Covered Funds or
Special Funds. For example, if the contract value in Covered Funds is reduced by 25% as the
result of a withdrawal, the MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Covered Funds is also reduced by 25%
(rather than by the amount of the withdrawal).

Because the MGIB Rollup Base is tracked separately for Covered and Special Funds, when you
make transfers between Covered and Special Funds, there is an impact on the MGIB Rollup Base.
Net transfers between Covered Funds and Special Funds will reduce the MGIB Rollup Base
allocated to Covered Funds or Special Funds, as applicable, on a pro-rata basis. This means that
the MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Covered Funds or Special Funds will be reduced by the same
percentage as the transfer bears to the contract value allocated to Covered Funds or Special Funds.
For example, if the contract value in Covered Funds is reduced by 25% as the result of the
transfer, the MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Covered Funds is also reduced by 25% (rather than
by the amount of the transfer). The resulting increase in the MGIB Rollup Base allocated to
Special Funds will equal the reduction in the MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Covered Funds.
Transfers from Special Funds to Covered Funds are treated in the same way.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

  In a case where the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds is greater than the contract value in
  Covered Funds, a transfer from Covered Funds will result in the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered
  Funds being reduced by a dollar amount that is higher than the dollar amount of the transfer. A
  higher reduction to the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds will have a larger negative impact
  on the MGIB Benefit Base, potentially reducing the minimum guaranteed amount of annuity
  income upon annuitization under the MGIB rider. This means the benefit you receive under the
  MGIB rider will not be as great because of the transfer.
 
  For example, assume the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds prior to a transfer from Covered
  Funds was $12,000 at a time that the contract value in Covered Funds was $10,000. If the contract
  owner transferred 25% of this $10,000 ($2,500) from the contract value in the Covered Funds, it
  would result in a 25% decrease in the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds, or $3,000 ($12,000
  * 25%), which is $500 more than the amount actually transferred from the Covered Funds.
 
b) Calculation of MGIB Ratchet Base
 
  The MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds equals:
 
  · on the rider date, eligible premiums (including any related premium credits) or the contract
    value (if the rider is added after the contract date) allocated to Covered Funds and Special
    Funds;
 
  · on each contract anniversary prior to attainment of age 90, the MGIB Ratchet Base for
    Covered Funds and Special Funds is set equal to the greater of:
 
    1 ) the current contract value allocated to Covered Funds and Special Funds (after any
        deductions occurring on that date); and
 
    2 ) the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds from the prior contract
        anniversary, adjusted for any new eligible premiums (including any related premium
        credits), withdrawals attributable to Covered Funds or Special Funds, and transfers.
 
        For Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased before February 2, 2009, the MGIB
Ratchet Base for Covered and Special Funds is recalculated on each “quarterly
        anniversary date” prior to attainment of age 90. A “quarterly anniversary date” is the
        date three months from the contract date that falls on the same date in the month as the
        contract date. For example, if the contract date is February 12, the quarterly anniversary
        date is May 12. If there is no corresponding date in the month, the quarterly anniversary
        date will be the last date of the month.
 
        Whenever the date falls on a weekend or holiday, we will use the value as of the
        subsequent business day.
 
  · at other times, the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds is the MGIB
    Ratchet Base from the prior contract anniversary (quarterly anniversary date for Contracts
    with the MGIB rider purchased before February 2, 2009), adjusted for subsequent eligible
    premiums (including any related premium credits), withdrawals attributable to Covered Funds
    or Special Funds, and transfers.
 
  Withdrawals reduce the MGIB Ratchet Base on a pro-rata basis. The percentage reduction in the
  MGIB Ratchet Base for each fund category (i.e., Covered Funds and Special Funds) equals the
  percentage reduction in contract value in that fund category resulting from the withdrawal. This
  means that the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds is reduced for
  withdrawals by the same proportion that the withdrawal reduces the contract value allocated to
  Covered Funds and Special Funds. For example, if the contract value in Covered Funds is

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

31


 

reduced by 25% as the result of a withdrawal (including surrender charge), the MGIB Ratchet
Base allocated to Covered Funds is also reduced by 25% (rather than the amount of the
withdrawal).

 

2) Then we determine the MGIB annuity income by multiplying your MGIB Benefit Base (adjusted
for any surrender charge and premium taxes) by the income factor, and then divide by $1,000.

MGIB Income Options

The following are the MGIB Income Options available under the MGIB Rider:

(i) If MGIB Benefit exercised at ages 10-73:
  Income for Life (Single Life or Joint with 100% Survivor) with no more than a 10 year certain fixed
  period.
 
(ii) If MGIB Benefit exercised at ages 74-89:
  Income for Life (Single Life or Joint with 100% Survivor) with no more than a six year certain period.
 
(iii) Any other income plan offered by the Company in conjunction with the MGIB rider on the MGIB
  Date.

 

For Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased before September 4, 2007, the exercise ranges were 10 to 74 and 75 to
89. Also, the period certain was seven years instead of six if the MGIB rider is to be exercised during the later age
range.

Once during the life of the Contract, you have the option to elect to apply up to 50% of the MGIB Benefit Base to
one of the MGIB Income Options available under the Rider. This option may only be exercised in the 30-day period
prior to a contract anniversary at or after the end of the waiting period. The portion of the MGIB Benefit Base so
applied will be used to determine the MGIB income, as is otherwise described in the prospectus. The Contract Value
will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. Any subsequent exercise of your right to receive payments under the MGIB
rider must be for 100% of the remaining value. The exercise of this partial annuitization of the MGIB Benefit Base
does not affect your right to annuitize under the Contract without regard to the rider. The amount applied to the
partial annuitization will be treated as a withdrawal for purposes of adjusting contract and rider values.

Investment Option Restrictions. For Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased on and after September 4,
2007, there is an asset allocation requirement. We require that your contract value be allocated in accordance with
certain limitations in order to mitigate the insurance risk inherent in our guarantee to provide you with a guaranteed
minimum amount of annuity income if you annuitize on the MGIB Date (subject to the terms and conditions of the
MGIB rider). There are Accepted Funds, Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds for purposes of this asset
allocation requirement. We are not currently applying this asset allocation requirement to the MGIB rider.

Accepted Funds. Currently, the Accepted Funds are:  
 
BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund ING Retirement Conservative Portfolio
ING American Funds Asset Allocation Portfolio ING Retirement Growth Portfolio
ING American Funds World Allocation Portfolio ING Retirement Moderate Growth Portfolio
ING Invesco Van Kampen Equity and Income ING Retirement Moderate Portfolio
Portfolio  
ING Liquid Assets Portfolio ING T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio
ING MFS Total Return Portfolio Fixed Interest Allocation
ING Oppenheimer Active Allocation Portfolio  

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

32


 

If this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009, the following are additional Accepted Funds:
 
ING Franklin Templeton Founding Strategy Portfolio  
ING WisdomTreeSM Global High-Yielding Equity Index Portfolio
 
We may change these designations at any time upon 30 days written notice to you. If a change is made, the
change will apply to contract value allocated to such portfolios after the date of the change.
 
Fixed Allocation Funds. Currently, the Fixed Allocation Funds are:
 
ING American Funds Bond Portfolio ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio
ING BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio ING U.S. Bond Index Portfolio
ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio  

 

You may allocate contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING
Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds
Automatic Rebalancing.

Other Funds. All portfolios available under the contract other than the Accepted Funds or Fixed
Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less
than a percentage of the total contract value allocated to both the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any
MGIB Rebalancing Date (as defined below), then we will automatically rebalance the contract value allocated to the
Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that the appropriate percentage of this amount is allocated to the Fixed
Allocation Funds. This is called Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing and the percentage is stated in your
Contract. Currently, the minimum Fixed Allocation Fund percentage is zero – we are not currently imposing these
asset allocation requirements. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.
Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis among the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds and will be the last
transaction processed on that date.

The MGIB Rebalancing Dates occur on each annual contract anniversary and after any one of the following
transactions:

1 ) receipt of additional premiums;
2 ) transfer or reallocation among Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or
    specifically directed by you; and
3 ) withdrawals from a Fixed Allocation Fund or Other Fund.

 

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the contract.
However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with
the investment option restrictions noted above, then Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur
immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix G - Examples of
Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.” You will be notified that Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic
Rebalancing has occurred, along with your new allocations, by a confirmation statement that will be mailed to you
after Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred.

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in reallocation into the Fixed
Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in them. See “Appendix G – Examples of Fixed
Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the MGIB rider, you are
providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including
reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the MGIB rider if you do not wish to
have your contract value reallocated in this manner.

Relationship of Accepted Funds, Other Funds and Fixed Allocation Funds to Special Funds, Covered
Funds and Restricted Funds. In general, Special Funds, Covered Funds and Restricted Funds impact the value of
certain benefits available under living benefit riders, while Accepted Funds and Other Funds relate to the asset
allocation requirements required under the living benefit riders. Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing and
its fund designations (Accepted Funds, Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds) are in addition to the designations
for purposes of calculating the MGIB Benefit Base (Covered Funds and Special Funds). Please see “The Trusts and
Funds – Covered Funds and Special Funds” and “The Trusts and Funds – Restricted Funds.” Because of this, your
ability to allocate your entire contract value to all Covered Funds for purposes of calculating the MGIB Benefit Base
is subject to Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. In the event you allocate contract value to Covered
Funds for the purposes of calculating the MGIB Benefit Base that are considered Other Funds for purposes of the
above asset allocation requirements, you will be required to satisfy the asset allocation requirements of Fixed
Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. However, we are not currently imposing these asset allocation
requirements.

In the event an investment option was designated a Restricted Fund, any allocations to a specific investment option
would be further limited to the investment limitations of these funds. Please see “The Trusts and Funds – Restricted
Funds.” Currently, no investment options are designated as a Restricted Fund.

It is possible for an investment option to have two different designations: An Accepted Fund for purposes of Fixed
Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may also be a Special Fund for purposes of calculating the MGIB Rollup
Base. While Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, and so your
allocation to that investment option as an Accepted Fund would not be subject to Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic
Rebalancing, the MGIB Rollup Base is impacted as a consequence in as much as your allocation to that investment
division as a Special Fund would not accumulate at the MGIB Rate of 6% per year (7% for Contracts with the
MGIB rider purchased before May 1, 2009). Therefore, if we were currently imposing the asset allocation
requirements, and a contract owner wished to avoid this result, he or she could allocate among the remaining
Accepted Funds, as well as among the remaining Other Funds that are not designated as Special Funds (subject to
Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing).

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the MGIB rider, you may not cancel it unless you: a) cancel the Contract
during the Contract’s free look period; b) surrender the Contract; c) begin the income phase and start receiving
annuity payments; or d) otherwise terminate the Contract pursuant to its terms. These events automatically cancel
the MGIB rider. Once the Contract continues beyond the free look period, you may not cancel the MGIB rider.

Termination. The MGIB rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefit offered by the rider is
intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The
MGIB rider automatically terminates if you:

· annuitize, surrender or otherwise terminate your Contract during the accumulation phase;
 
· do not have contract value that is sufficient to pay the charge for the MGIB rider; or
 
· die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple contract owners, or at death
  of annuitant if contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue
  the Contract.

 

Change of Owner or Annuitant. The MGIB rider will also terminate upon a change of ownership, including
adding a joint owner. Once you purchase the MGIB rider, the annuitant may not be changed except when an
annuitant who is not a contract owner dies prior to annuitization, in which case a new annuitant may be named in
accordance with the provisions of your Contract. The MGIB Base is unaffected and continues to accumulate.

In addition to spousal continuation, the following transactions are not considered a change of ownership for
purposes of termination of the MGIB rider:

1 ) Transfers from custodian to custodian;

2 ) Transfers from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to that same individual;
3 ) Transfers from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
4 ) Collateral assignments;
5 ) Transfers from trust to trust where the contract owner and the grantor of the trust is the same
    individual;
6 ) Transfers from an individual to a trust where the contract owner and the grantor of the trust is the same
    individual; or
7 ) Transfers from a trust to an individual where the contract owner and the grantor of the trust is the same
    individual.

 

Notification. On or about 30 days prior to the MGIB Date, we will provide you with notification which will
include an estimate of the amount of MGIB annuity benefit available if you choose to exercise it. We will determine
the actual amount of the MGIB annuity benefit as of the MGIB Date.

The MGIB rider does not restrict or limit your right to annuitize the Contract at any time permitted under
the Contract. The MGIB rider does not restrict your right to annuitize the Contract using contract values
that may be higher than the MGIB annuity benefit.

The benefits associated with the MGIB rider are available only if you annuitize your Contract under the
rider and in accordance with the provisions set forth above. Annuitizing using the MGIB may result in a
more favorable stream of income payments, and different tax consequences, under your Contract. Because
the MGIB rider is based on conservative actuarial factors, the level of lifetime income that it guarantees may
be less than the level that might be provided by the application of your Contract value to the Contract’s
applicable annuity factors. You should consider all of your options at the time you begin the income phase of
your Contract.

ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider. The ING LifePay
Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum
level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of the annuitant, even if these withdrawals deplete
your Contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are concerned that you may outlive your
income.

Important Note: The below information pertains to the ING LifePay Plus rider which was available for
sale from January 28, 2008 through March 15, 2010. Please see Appendix H if you purchased ING
LifePay, the prior form of this rider.

 

Purchase. Beginning on and after January 28, 2008, you may elect to purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider.
The annuitant must be the owner or one of the owners, unless the owner is a non-natural owner. Joint annuitants are
not allowed. The maximum issue age is 80. The issue age is the age of the owner (or the annuitant if there are joint
owners or the owner is non-natural) on the Contract anniversary on which the rider is effective. The ING LifePay
Plus rider is subject to broker/dealer availability. The ING LifePay Plus rider will not be issued until your contract
value is allocated in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option
Restrictions,” below. Please note that with the ING LifePay Plus rider, you cannot allocate contract value to a
Fixed Interest Division at any time.

The ING LifePay Plus rider is no longer available for purchase, including purchase by owners of existing Contracts.
Previously, Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 were eligible for the ING LifePay Plus rider, subject to
the conditions, requirements and limitations of the prior paragraph. Such Contracts must not already have had a
living benefit rider. Or if your Contract met the above eligibility date and had the ING LifePay rider, you could
upgrade to the ING LifePay Plus rider for a limited time. There is an election form for this purpose. Please contact
the Customer Service Center for more information.

Rider Date. The rider date is the date the ING LifePay Plus rider becomes effective. If you purchase the ING
LifePay Plus rider when the Contract is issued, the rider effective date is also the Contract date. If the rider is
added after contract issue, the rider effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly
contract anniversary.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you: a) cancel
the Contract during the Contract’s free look period; b) surrender the Contract; c) begin the income phase and
start receiving annuity payments; or d) otherwise terminate the Contract pursuant to its terms. These events
automatically cancel the ING LifePay Plus rider.

Termination. The ING LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered
are intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase.
The optional rider automatically terminates if you:

1 ) terminate your Contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender your Contract,
    or begin receiving income phase payments in lieu of payments under the ING LifePay Plus rider; or
 
2 ) die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of
    annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue
    the Contract.

 

The ING LifePay Plus rider will also terminate if there is a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal
beneficiary continuation on your death). Other circumstances that may cause the ING LifePay Plus rider to
terminate automatically are discussed below.

How the ING LifePay Plus Rider Works. The ING LifePay Plus rider has both phases and statuses. Through
the lifetime of the ING LifePay Plus rider, you will be in one of two phases: the Growth Phase or the Withdrawal
Phase. As detailed below, the Growth Phase begins on the effective date of the rider and ends as of the business day
before you take your first withdrawal, or on your Contract’s annuity start date. See “The Income Phase –
Restrictions on Start Dates and the Duration of Payments.” During the Growth Phase, no benefits under the ING
LifePay Plus rider are being paid out; rather, during the Growth Phase, premiums and investment growth under your
contract continue to accumulate. The Withdrawal Phase follows the Growth Phase and begins once you take your
first withdrawal or annuity payment, whichever occurs first. During the Withdrawal Phase, you may withdraw
guaranteed amounts from your Contract, subject to the terms and conditions noted in this section.

During the Withdrawal Phase, this rider has four different statuses that come in a pair to fulfill your withdrawal
guarantee: Guaranteed Withdrawal Status and Automatic Periodic Benefit Status; and Lifetime Guaranteed
Withdrawal Status and Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Together, these status pairs operate to fulfill the
rider’s withdrawal guarantee and depend on how old your annuitant is when you take your first withdrawal.

Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins on the date of the first withdrawal, ONLY IF the quarterly contract
anniversary following the annuitant reaching age 59½ has not yet passed, and continues until certain circumstances
occur as noted in “Guaranteed Withdrawal Status” below. Thereafter, Automatic Periodic Benefit Status would
begin ONLY IF your contract value is depleted to zero for reasons other than withdrawals that exceed the Maximum
Annual Withdrawal, as discussed more thoroughly below. In Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are no longer
entitled to make withdrawals. Instead, under the ING LifePay Plus rider, you will begin to receive periodic
payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal until the MGWB Base is exhausted.
Alternatively, in the event your contract value is depleted because of withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal, then Automatic Periodic Benefit Status would not begin. Rather, the Contract and the ING LifePay
Plus rider will terminate without value. While the Withdrawal Phase of your rider may begin in Guaranteed
Withdrawal Status, your rider may not enter Automatic Periodic Benefit Status

Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins on the date of the first withdrawal, provided the quarterly contract
anniversary following the annuitant’s age 59½ has passed, and continues until certain circumstances occur as noted
in the “Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status” below. Thereafter, Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

36


 

would begin ONLY IF you contract value is depleted to zero for reasons other than withdrawals that exceed the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal, as discussed more thoroughly below. In Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit
Status, you are no longer entitled to make withdrawals. Instead, under the ING LifePay Plus rider, you will begin to
receive periodic payments in an amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Alternatively, in the event your
contract value is depleted because of withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, then Lifetime
Automatic Periodic Benefit Status would not begin. Rather, the Contract and the ING LifePay Plus rider will
terminate without value.

Benefits paid under the ING LifePay Plus rider require the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The
ING LifePay Plus Base (referred to as the “MGWB Base” in the Contract) is used to determine the Maximum
Annual Withdrawal and is calculated as follows:

1 ) If you purchased the ING LifePay Plus rider on the Contract date, the initial ING LifePay Plus Base is
    equal to the initial premium (excluding any credit on the premium, or premium credit, available with your
    Contract).
 
2 ) If you purchased the ING LifePay Plus rider after the Contract date, the initial ING LifePay Plus Base is
    equal to the Contract value on the effective date of the rider (excluding any premium credits applied during
    the preceding 36 months).

 

During the Growth Phase, the ING LifePay Plus Base is increased dollar-for-dollar by any premiums received,
excluding any applicable premium credits (“eligible premiums”). In addition, on each contract anniversary, the ING
LifePay Plus Base is recalculated as the greater of:

· The current ING LifePay Plus Base; or
· The current Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the 36 months preceding the
  calculation). This is referred to as the annual “ratchet.”

 

If this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated on each quarterly
contract anniversary (once each quarter of a contract year from the contract date). This is referred to as a quarterly
“ratchet.”

Also, on each of the first ten contract anniversaries ONLY after the Annuitant has reached age 59½, the ING
LifePay Plus Base is recalculated as the greatest of:

· The current ING LifePay Plus Base; or
· The current Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the 36 months preceding the
  calculation); and
· During the Growth Phase, the ING LifePay Plus Base on the previous contract anniversary, increased by
  6%, plus any eligible premiums and minus any third-party investment advisory fees paid from your
  contract during the year. This is referred to as an annual “step-up.” (Any premium credits applied are
  excluded from the eligible premiums with a step-up.) If this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009,
  the annual step-up is 7%.

 

Please note that there are no partial step-ups. Step-ups are not pro-rated. So for existing Contracts to which this
rider is attached (a post Contract issuance election), the first opportunity for a step-up will not be until the first
contract anniversary after a full contract year has elapsed since the rider effective date, SO LONG AS the Annuitant
is at least age 59½.

Say for example that with a Contract purchased on January 1, 2007, the contract owner decides to add LifePay Plus
on March 15, 2007. The rider effective date is April 1, 2007, which is the date of the Contract’s next following
quarterly contract anniversary. Because on January 1, 2008 a full contract year will not have elapsed since the rider
effective date, the ING LifePay Plus Base will not be eligible for a step-up. Rather, the first opportunity for a step-
up with this Contract is on January 1, 2009, assuming the Annuitant is age 59½.

This rider has no cash value. You cannot surrender the Contract for the ING LifePay Plus Base. The ING LifePay
Plus Base is not available to annuitize.

Currently, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are eligible premiums for purposes of
determining the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. If this rider was purchased before
February 2, 2009, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are not eligible premiums, but do
increase the Contract value used to determine the reset Maximum Annual Withdrawal under the benefit reset feature
of the ING LifePay Plus rider (see “ING LifePay Plus Reset,” below). We reserve the right to discontinue allowing
premium payments during the Withdrawal Phase.

Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date of the first withdrawal, ONLY IF the quarterly
contract anniversary has not passed on which or after the annuitant is age 59½. While the ING LifePay Plus rider is
in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, withdrawals in a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will
reduce the ING LifePay Plus Base dollar-for-dollar. Withdrawals while the ING LifePay Plus rider is in Guaranteed
Withdrawal Status are not guaranteed for the lifetime of the annuitant. This status will then continue until the
earliest of:

1 ) quarterly contract anniversary following the annuitant reaching age 59½, provided the contract owner
    does not decline the change to Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status;
2 ) reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base to zero, at which time the rider will terminate;
3 ) the date annuity payments begin (see “The Income Phase”);
4 ) reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual
    Withdrawal;
5 ) reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual
    Withdrawal (see “Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
6 ) the surrender of the Contract;
7 ) the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural
    owner), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract; or
8 ) automatic reset into the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

 

You will receive prior notice, of not less than 30 days, if you are in the Guaranteed Withdrawal Status and become
eligible for the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This notice will explain the change, its impact to you and
your options. You may decline this change.

Please note that with the automatic reset into the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, it is possible that the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal, as recalculated, will be less, due to your withdrawals (and reduction of the ING
LifePay Plus Base as a result) while the rider was in the Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. See Appendix F,
Illustration 6, for an example. Also please note, however, that by declining automatic reset into the Lifetime
Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, your ING LifePay Plus Base will not thereafter be automatically reset – to the then
current Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the 36 months preceding the calculation) if
the contract value is higher – as it could be while the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. No further
resets will be available. For more information, please see “ING LifePay Plus Reset” below.

If you decline the automatic reset, your rider will continue in the Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. There will not be
another opportunity to automatically reset into the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. Thereafter, in the event
contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal, including due to poor market performance, your rider’s status will change to Automatic Periodic
Benefit Status. In Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, other than the payments as provided under the ING LifePay
Plus rider, the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits). In the event contract value is

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

38


 

reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Contract and rider will
terminate without value. For more information about the effect of a withdrawal reducing the Contract value to zero,
please see “Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” below.

Please see below for more information about each of this rider’s four different statuses.

Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date of your first withdrawal, SO LONG
AS the quarterly contract anniversary has passed on which or after the annuitant is age 59½. Or for Contracts in
Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins upon automatic reset. This status
continues until the earliest of:

1 ) the date annuity payments begin (see “The Income Phase”);
2 ) reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual
    Withdrawal;
3 ) reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual
    Withdrawal (see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
4 ) the surrender of the Contract; or
5 ) the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural
    person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

 

The rider’s status changes to Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status in the event Contract value is reduced to
zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including due to poor
market performance. In Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, other than the payments as provided under the
ING LifePay Plus rider, the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits). Otherwise, if
Contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Contract and
rider will terminate without value. For more information about the effect of a withdrawal reducing the Contract
value to zero, please see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” below. As described below, certain features
of the ING LifePay Plus rider may differ depending on whether you are in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is
determined on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins. It equals a percentage of the greater of 1) the Contract
value and 2) the ING LifePay Plus Base as of the last day of the Growth Phase. The first withdrawal after the
effective date of the rider (which causes the end of the Growth Phase) is treated as occurring on the first day
of the Withdrawal Phase, after calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual
Withdrawal percentage, which varies by age of the annuitant on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins, is as
follows:

    Maximum Annual  
Annuitant Age   Withdrawal Percentage  
0-64 * 4 %*
65-75   5 %
76-80   6 %
81 + 7 %

 

*If the Withdrawal Phase begins before the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the annuitant
reaches age 59½, withdrawals in a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will reduce the
ING LifePay Plus Base dollar-for-dollar, under what we refer to as the “Standard Withdrawal Benefit.”
Then, on the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the annuitant reaches age 59½, the ING LifePay
Plus Base will automatically be reset to the current Contract value (excluding any premium credits
applied during the preceding 36 months), if greater, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be
recalculated.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

39


 

If this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:

    Maximum Annual  
Annuitant Age   Withdrawal Percentage  
0-75 * 5 %*
76-80   6 %
81 + 7 %

 

*If the Withdrawal Phase begins before the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the annuitant reaches
age 59½, withdrawals in a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will reduce the ING LifePay
Plus Base dollar-for-dollar, under what we refer to as the “Standard Withdrawal Benefit.” Then, on the
quarterly contract anniversary on or after the annuitant reaches age 59½, the ING LifePay Plus Base will
automatically be reset to the current Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the
preceding 36 months), if greater, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be recalculated.

Once determined, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage never changes for the Contract, except as
provided for under spousal continuation. See “Continuation After Death – Spouse,” below. This is important
to keep in mind in deciding when to take your first withdrawal because the younger you are at that time, the
lower the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage.

If the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while you are in the ING LifePay Plus rider’s
Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, then you may elect a life only annuity option, in lieu of the
Contract’s other annuity options, under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the
Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is subject to change depends on the extent of your withdrawals.
The amount of your withdrawal or withdrawals in any Contract year that, when added together, do not exceed
the Maximum Annual Withdrawal do not reduce the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. However, if the total
amount of your withdrawals in any Contract year exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, then the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced in the same proportion as the contract value is reduced by the
amount of the excess withdrawal.

For this purpose, an excess withdrawal is the lesser of the amount by which your total withdrawals in a
Contract year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the amount of your present request for a
withdrawal. The amount of any applicable premium credit deduction (recapture) or surrender charges are not
included in determining whether the total amount of your withdrawals in a Contract year exceeds the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal and triggers a pro-rata reduction. However, in the event that the Maximum
Annual Withdrawal is to be subject to a pro-rata reduction because of an excess withdrawal, the amount by
which the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced will include any premium credit deduction and
surrender charges. See Appendix F, Illustrations 1 and 2 for examples of this concept.

Required Minimum Distributions. Withdrawals taken from the Contract to satisfy the Required
Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code are considered withdrawals for purposes of the ING LifePay
Plus rider and will begin the Withdrawal Phase if the Withdrawal Phase has not already started. Any such
withdrawal that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for a specific Contract year will not be deemed
excess withdrawals in that Contract year for purposes of the ING LifePay Plus rider, subject to the following
rules:

1 ) If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before
    January 31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual
    Withdrawal on that date, an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the
    Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

40


 

2 ) Once you have taken the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year, the dollar
    amount of any additional withdrawals will count first against and reduce any unused Additional
    Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount
    for the current calendar year – without being deemed an excess withdrawal.
 
3 ) In the event of any withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and all available
    Additional Withdrawal Amounts, the dollar amount of these withdrawals will be deemed excess
    withdrawals that cause the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be reduced on a pro-rata basis, as
    described above.
 
4 ) The Additional Withdrawal Amount is available on a calendar year basis and recalculated every
    January, reset to equal that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year that
    exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date. Any unused amount of the Additional
    Withdrawal Amount carries over into the next calendar year and is available through the end of that
    year, at which time any amount remaining will expire.
 
5 ) The Additional Withdrawal Amount does not change in the event you choose to reset the Maximum
    Annual Withdrawal Amount. See “ING LifePay Plus Reset Option” below. The Additional
    Withdrawal Amount is only subject to change when the Additional Withdrawal Amount is reset as
    described above.

 

See Appendix F, Illustrations 3 and 4.

Investment Advisory Fees. Withdrawals taken pursuant to a program established by the owner for the
payment of investment advisory fees to a named third party investment adviser for advice on management of
the Contract’s values will not cause the Withdrawal Phase to begin. During the Growth Phase, such
withdrawals reduce the ING LifePay Plus Base on a dollar-for-dollar basis, and during the Withdrawal Phase,
these withdrawals are treated as any other withdrawal.

Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the Contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of
the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Contract and the rider will terminate without value due to the pro-rata
reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal” above.

If the Contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal while the rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the rider will enter Automatic Periodic Benefit
Status and you are no longer entitled to make withdrawals. Instead, under the ING LifePay Plus rider, you will
begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, until the
remaining ING LifePay Plus Base is exhausted.

When the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1 ) the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under
    the ING LifePay Plus rider;
2 ) no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3 ) any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

 

During Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal
to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will continue until the ING LifePay Plus Base is
reduced to zero, at which time the rider will terminate without value.

If when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status your net withdrawals to date are
less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you the difference
immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full Contract year following the date
the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Under a systematic
withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be
withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at
the time the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the
Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal
amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual
Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments
were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the
payments will be made at the end of the half-Contract year or Contract year, as applicable.

Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the Contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in
excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Contract and the rider will terminate without value due to the
pro-rata reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal” above.

If the Contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal while the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the rider will enter Lifetime
Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are no longer entitled to make withdrawals. Instead, under the ING
LifePay Plus rider, you will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum
Annual Withdrawal.

When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1 ) the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under
    the ING LifePay Plus rider;
2 ) no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3 ) any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

 

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount
that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the annuitant at
which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic
Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the annuitant’s death.

If when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status your net withdrawals to
date are less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you the difference
immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full Contract year following the date
the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Under a systematic
withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon percentage of the contract value will be withdrawn
from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time
the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the
Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal
amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual
Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments
were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the
payments will be made at the end of the half-Contract year or Contract year, as applicable.

ING LifePay Plus Reset. Once the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins and the Maximum
Annual Withdrawal has been determined, on each contract anniversary we will increase (or “reset”) the ING
LifePay Plus Base to the current Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the 36 months
preceding the calculation), if the Contract value is higher. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal will also be
recalculated, and the remaining portion of the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be available for

withdrawal immediately. This reset ONLY occurs when the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status,
and is automatic.

If this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009, the ING LifePay Plus Base and Maximum Annul
Withdrawal is reset on each quarterly contract anniversary.

We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider with a reset. In this event, you will receive prior notice,
of not less than 30 days, which explains the change, its impact to you and your options. You may decline this
change (and the reset). Please note, however, that by declining a reset, your ING LifePay Plus Base will not
thereafter be reset, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will also not be recalculated; no further resets will be
available.

Investment Option Restrictions. While this rider is in effect, there are limits on the portfolios to which your
Contract value may be allocated. Contract value allocated to portfolios other than Accepted Funds will be
rebalanced so as to maintain at least a specified percentage of such Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds,
which percentage depends on the rider’s purchase date:

Rider Purchase Date Fixed Allocation Fund Percentage  
On or after February 2, 2009 30 %
Before February 2, 2009 20 %

 

See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below for more information. We have these investment
option restrictions to lessen the likelihood we would have to make payments under this rider. We require this
allocation regardless of your investment instructions to the Contract. The rider will not be issued until your Contract
value is allocated in accordance with these investment option restrictions. The timing of when and how we apply
these restrictions is discussed further below.

Accepted Funds. Currently, the Accepted Funds are:  
 
BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund ING Retirement Conservative Portfolio
ING American Funds Asset Allocation Portfolio ING Retirement Growth Portfolio
ING American Funds World Allocation Portfolio ING Retirement Moderate Growth Portfolio
ING Invesco Van Kampen Equity and Income ING Retirement Moderate Portfolio
Portfolio  
ING Liquid Assets Portfolio ING T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio
ING MFS Total Return Portfolio Fixed Interest Allocation
ING Oppenheimer Active Allocation Portfolio  
 
If this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009, the following are additional Accepted Funds:
 
ING Franklin Templeton Founding Strategy Portfolio  
ING WisdomTreeSM Global High-Yielding Equity Index Portfolio
 
No rebalancing is necessary when Contract value is allocated entirely to Accepted Funds. We may change
these designations at any time upon 30 days notice to you. If a change is made, the change will apply to
Contract value allocated to such portfolios after the date of the change.
 
Fixed Allocation Funds. Currently, the Fixed Allocation Funds are:
 
ING American Funds Bond Portfolio ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio
ING BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio ING U.S. Bond Index Portfolio
ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio  

 

You may allocate your contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING
Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds
Automatic Rebalancing.

Other Funds. All portfolios available under the Contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed
Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is
less than the specified percentage of the total Contract value allocated to both the Fixed Allocation Funds and
Other Funds on any ING LifePay Plus Rebalancing Date, we will automatically rebalance the Contract value
allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that the specified percentage of this amount is
allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. The specified percentage depends on the rider’s purchase date.
Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done
on a pro-rata basis from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds and will be the last transaction
processed on that date. The ING LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on each Contract anniversary and after
the following transactions:

1 ) receipt of additional premiums;
2 ) transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or
    specifically directed by you; and
3 ) withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

 

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the
Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of
compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic
Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See
“Appendix G – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.” You will be notified that Fixed
Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred, along with your new allocations, by a confirmation
statement that will be mailed to you after Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred.

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the
Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in them. See “Appendix G – Examples
of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING LifePay
Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these
transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING
LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay Plus rider and charges will terminate on the date of
death of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner), or the annuitant if there is a non-natural
owner.

Continuation After Death – Spouse. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the
Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue on the
next quarterly contract anniversary, provided the spouse becomes the annuitant and sole owner.

If the rider is in the Growth Phase at the time of spousal continuation:

1 ) The rider will continue in the Growth Phase;
2 ) On the date the rider is continued, the ING LifePay Plus Base will be reset to equal the greater of the
    ING LifePay Plus Base and the then current Contract value;
3 ) The ING LifePay Plus charges will restart and be the same as were in effect prior to the claim date;
4 ) Ratchets, which stop on the claim date, are restarted, effective on the date the rider is continued;

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

44


 

5 ) Any remaining step-ups will be available, and if the rider is continued before an annual contract
    anniversary when a step-up would have been available, then that step-up will be available;
 
6 ) The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage will be determined as of the date of the first
    withdrawal, whenever it occurs, and will be based on the spouse’s age on that date; and
 
7 ) The rider’s Standard Withdrawal Benefit will be available until the quarterly contract anniversary on or
    after the spouse is age 59½.

 

If the rider is in the Withdrawal Phase at the time of spousal continuation:

1 ) The rider will continue in the Withdrawal Phase.
 
2 ) The rider’s charges will restart on the date the rider is continued and be the same as were in effect prior
    to the claim date.
 
3 ) On the quarterly Contract anniversary that the date the rider is continued:
 
    (a) If the surviving spouse was not the annuitant before the owner’s death, then the ING LifePay
      Plus Base will be reset to the current Contract value and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is
recalculated by multiplying the new ING LifePay Plus Base by the Maximum Annual
      Withdrawal percentage based on the surviving spouse’s age on that date. Withdrawals are
      permitted pursuant to the other provisions of the rider. Withdrawals causing the Contract value
      to fall to zero will terminate the Contract and the rider.
 
    (b) If the surviving spouse was the annuitant before the owner’s death, then the ING LifePay Plus
      Base will be reset to the current Contract value, only if greater, and the Maximum Annual
      Withdrawal is recalculated by multiplying the new ING LifePay Plus Base by the Maximum
      Annual Withdrawal percentage based on the surviving spouse’s age on that date. Withdrawals
      are permitted pursuant to the other provisions of the rider.
 
4 ) The rider charges will restart on the quarter Contract anniversary that the rider is continued and will be
    the same as were in effect prior to the claim date.

 

Effect of ING LifePay Plus Rider on Death Benefit. If you die before Lifetime Automatic Periodic
Benefit Status begins under the ING LifePay Plus rider, the death benefit is payable, but the rider terminates.
However, if the beneficiary is the owner’s spouse, and the spouse elects to continue the Contract, the death
benefit is not payable until the spouse’s death. Thus, you should not purchase this rider with multiple
owners, unless the owners are spouses. See “Death of Owner or Annuitant” and “Continuation After Death –
Spouse,” above for further information.

While in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if the owner who is not the annuitant dies, we will
continue to pay the periodic payments that the owner was receiving under the ING LifePay Plus rider to the
beneficiary. While in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if an owner who is also the annuitant dies,
the periodic payments will stop. No other death benefit is payable.

While the rider is in Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if the owner dies, the remaining ING LifePay Plus Base
will be paid to the beneficiary in a lump sum.

Change of Owner or Annuitant. Other than as provided above under “Continuation After Death- Spouse,”
you may not change the annuitant. The rider and rider charges will terminate upon change of owner, including
adding an additional owner, except for the following ownership changes:

1 ) spousal continuation as described above;
2 ) change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

45


 

3 ) change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual;
4 ) change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5 ) collateral assignments;
6 ) change in trust as owner where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same
    individual;
7 ) change of owner from an individual to a trust where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust
    are the same individual; and
8 ) change of owner from a trust to an individual where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust
    are the same individual.

 

Surrender Charges. If you elect the ING LifePay Plus rider, your withdrawals will be subject to surrender
charges if they exceed the free withdrawal amount, so long as there is contract value from which to take your
withdrawals. However, once your Contract value is zero, any periodic payments under the ING LifePay Plus rider
would not be subject to surrender charges. Moreover, with no contract value, none of your contract level recurring
charges (e.g., the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge) would be deducted. See Appendix F for examples.

Loans. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the ING LifePay Plus rider.

Taxation. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING LifePay Plus
Rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider. The
ING Joint LifePay Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will
guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of both you and your spouse,
even if these withdrawals deplete your contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are
married and are concerned that you and your spouse may outlive your income.

Important Note: The Below information pertains to the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider which was available
for sale from January 28, 2008 through March 15, 2010. Please see Appendix H if you purchased ING
Joint LifePay, the prior form of this rider.

 

Purchase. Beginning on and after January 28, 2008, you may elect to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus
rider. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is only available for purchase by individuals who are married at the time of
purchase and eligible to elect spousal continuation (as defined by the Tax Code) when the death benefit becomes
payable. We refer to these individuals as spouses. Certain ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations are
required in order to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. See “Ownership, Annuitant, and Beneficiary
Requirements,” below. The maximum issue age is 80. Both spouses must meet these issue age requirements on the
contract anniversary on which the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is effective. The issue age is the age of the owners
on the Contract anniversary on which the rider is effective. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is subject to
broker/dealer availability. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will not be issued until your contract value is allocated
in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below. Please
note that with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you cannot allocate contract value to a Fixed Interest
Division at any time.

The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is no longer available for purchase, including purchase by owners of existing
Contracts. Previously, Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 were eligible for the ING Joint LifePay Plus
rider, subject to the conditions, requirements and limitations of the prior paragraph. Such Contracts must not
already have had a living benefit rider. Or if your Contract met the above eligibility date and had the ING Joint
LifePay rider, you could upgrade to the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider for a limited time. There is an election form
for this purpose. Please contact our Customer Service Center for more information.

Ownership, Annuitant, and Beneficiary Designation Requirements. Certain ownership, annuitant, and
beneficiary designations are required in order to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. These designations
depend upon whether the contract is issued as a nonqualified contract, an IRA or a custodial IRA. In all cases, the
ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations must allow for the surviving spouse to continue the contract
when the death benefit becomes payable, as provided by the Tax Code. Non-natural, custodial owners are only
allowed with IRAs (“custodial IRAs”). Joint annuitants are not allowed. The necessary ownership, annuitant and/or
beneficiary designations are described below. Applications that do not meet the requirements below will be
rejected. We reserve the right to verify the date of birth and social security number of both spouses.

Nonqualified Contracts. For a jointly owned contract, the owners must be spouses, and the annuitant
must be one of the owners. For a contract with only one owner, the owner’s spouse must be the sole primary
beneficiary, and the annuitant must be one of the spouses.

IRAs. There may only be one owner, who must also be the annuitant. The owner’s spouse must be the
sole primary beneficiary.

Custodial IRAs. While we do not maintain individual owner and beneficiary designations for IRAs held
by an outside custodian, the ownership and beneficiary designations with the custodian must comply with the
requirements listed in “IRAs” above. The annuitant must be the same as the beneficial owner of the custodial
IRA. We require the custodian to provide us the name and date of birth of both the owner and the owner’s
spouse.

Rider Date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider date is the date the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider becomes
effective. If you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider when the contract is issued, the ING Joint LifePay Plus
rider date is also the contract date. If the rider is added after contract issue, the rider effective date will be the date
of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you: a)
cancel the contract during the contract’s free look period; b) surrender the Contract; c) start receiving annuity
payments; or d) otherwise terminate the Contract pursuant to its terms. These events automatically cancel the ING
Joint LifePay Plus rider.

Termination. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits
offered are intended to be available to you and your spouse while you are living and while your contract is in the
accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you:

1 ) terminate your contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender your Contract,
    or begin receiving income phase payments in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider;
 
2 ) die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die in the case of joint owners, or death of annuitant
    if the contract is a custodial IRA), unless your spouse elects to continue the contract (and your spouse
    is active for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider); or
 
3 ) change the owner of the contract (other than a spousal continuation by an active spouse).

 

See “Change of Owner or Annuitant,” below. Other circumstances that may cause the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider
to terminate automatically are discussed below.

Active Status. Once the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has been issued, a spouse must remain in “active” status
in order to exercise rights and receive the benefits of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider after the first spouse’s death
by electing spousal continuation. In general, changes to the ownership, annuitant, and/or beneficiary designation
requirements noted above will result in one spouse being designated as “inactive.” Inactive spouses are not eligible
to continue the benefits of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider after the death of the other spouse. Once designated
“inactive,” a spouse may not regain active status under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. Specific situations that will
result in a spouse’s designation as “inactive” include the following:

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

47


 

1 ) For nonqualified contracts where the spouses are joint owners, the removal of a joint owner (if that
    spouse does not automatically become sole primary beneficiary pursuant to the terms of the contract),
    or the change of one joint owner to a person other than an active spouse.
 
2 ) For nonqualified contracts where one spouse is the owner and the other spouse is the sole primary
    beneficiary, as well as for IRA contracts (including custodial IRAs), the addition of a joint owner who
    is not also an active spouse or any change of beneficiary (including the addition of primary
    beneficiaries).
 
3 ) In the event of the death of one spouse (in which case the deceased spouse becomes inactive).

 

An owner may also request that one spouse be treated as inactive. In the case of joint-owned contracts, both
contract owners must agree to such a request. An inactive spouse is not eligible to exercise any rights or receive any
benefits under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. However, all charges for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will
continue to apply, even if one spouse becomes inactive, regardless of the reason. You should make sure you
understand the impact of beneficiary and owner changes on the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider prior to
requesting any such changes.

A divorce will terminate the ability of an ex-spouse to continue the contract. See “Divorce,” below.

How the ING Joint LifePay Plus Rider Works. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has both phases and
statuses. Through the lifetime of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you will be in one of two phases: the Growth
Phase or the Withdrawal Phase. As detailed below, the Growth Phase begins on the effective date of the rider and
ends as of the business day before you take your first withdrawal, or on your Contract’s annuity start date. See “The
Income Phase – Restrictions on Start Dates and the Duration of Payments.” During the Growth Phase, no benefits
under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider are being paid out; rather, during the Growth Phase, premiums and
investment growth under your contract continue to accumulate. The Withdrawal Phase follows the Growth Phase
and begins once you take your first withdrawal or annuity payment, whichever occurs first. During the Withdrawal
Phase, you may withdraw guaranteed amounts from your Contract, subject to the terms and conditions noted in this
section.

During the Withdrawal Phase, this rider has four different statuses that come in a pair to fulfill your withdrawal
guarantee: Guaranteed Withdrawal Status and Automatic Periodic Benefit Status; and Lifetime Guaranteed
Withdrawal Status and Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Together, these status pairs operate to fulfill the
rider’s withdrawal guarantee and depend on how old the youngest active spouse is when you take your first
withdrawal.

Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins on the date of the first withdrawal, ONLY IF the quarterly contract
anniversary following the youngest active spouse’s 65th birthday has not yet passed, and continues until certain
circumstances occur as noted in “Guaranteed Withdrawal Status” below. Thereafter, Automatic Periodic Benefit
Status would begin ONLY IF your contract value is depleted to zero for reasons other than withdrawals that exceed
the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, as discussed more thoroughly below. In Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you
are no longer entitled to make withdrawals. Instead, under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you will begin to
receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal until the ING Joint
LifePay Plus Base is exhausted. Alternatively, in the event your contract value is depleted because of withdrawals
that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, then Automatic Periodic Benefit Status would not begin. Rather, the
Contract and the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will terminate without value. While the Withdrawal Phase of your
rider may begin in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, your rider may not enter Automatic Periodic Benefit Status.

Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins on the date of the first withdrawal, provided the quarterly contract
anniversary following the youngest active spouse’s 65th birthday has passed, and continues until certain
circumstances occur as noted in the “Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status” below. Thereafter, Lifetime
Automatic Periodic Benefit Status would begin ONLY IF you contract value is depleted to zero for reasons other
than withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, as discussed more thoroughly below. In Lifetime
Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are no longer entitled to make withdrawals. Instead, under the ING Joint

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

48


 

LifePay Plus rider, you will begin to receive periodic payments in an amount equal to the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal. Alternatively, in the event your contract value is depleted because of withdrawals that exceed the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal, then Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status would not begin. Rather, the
Contract and the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will terminate without value.

Benefits paid under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider require the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base (referred to as the “MGWB Base” in the contract) is used to determine the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal and is calculated as follows:

1 ) If you purchased the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider on the contract date, the initial ING Joint LifePay Plus
    Base is equal to the initial premium (excluding any premium credit available with your Contract).
 
2 ) If you purchased the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider after the contract date, the initial ING Joint LifePay Plus
    Base is equal to the contract value on the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider (excluding any
    premium credits applied during the preceding 36 months).

 

During the Growth Phase, the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is increased dollar-for-dollar by any premiums received,
excluding any applicable premium credits (“eligible premiums”). In addition, on each contract anniversary, the ING
Joint LifePay Plus Base is recalculated as the greater of:

· The current ING Joint LifePay Plus Base; or
· The current Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the 36 months preceding the
  calculation). This is referred to as the annual “ratchet.”

 

If this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009, the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is recalculated on each
quarterly contract anniversary (once each quarter of a contract year from the contract date). This is referred to as a
quarterly “ratchet.”

Also, on each of the first five contract anniversaries ONLY after the youngest active spouse reaches age 65, the ING
Joint LifePay Plus Base is recalculated as the greatest of:

· The current ING Joint LifePay Plus Base; or
· The current Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the 36 months preceding the
  calculation); and
· During the Growth Phase, the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base on the previous contract anniversary, increased
  by 6%, plus any eligible premiums and minus any third-party investment advisory fees paid from your
  contract during the year. This is referred to as an annual “step-up.” (Any premium credits applied are
  excluded from the eligible premiums with a step-up.) If this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009,
  the annual step-up is 7%.

 

Please note that there are no partial step-ups. Step-ups are not pro-rated. So for existing Contracts to which this
rider is added (a post Contract issuance election), the first opportunity for a step-up will not be until the first contract
anniversary after a full contract year has elapsed since the rider date, SO LONG AS the youngest active spouse is at
least age 65.

Say for example that with a Contract purchased on January 1, 2007, the contract owner decides to add Joint LifePay
Plus on March 15, 2007. The rider effective date is April 1, 2007, which is the date of the Contract’s next following
quarterly contract anniversary. Because on January 1, 2008 a full contract year will not have elapsed since the rider
effective date, the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base will not be eligible for a step-up. Rather, the first opportunity for a
step-up with this Contract is on January 1, 2009, assuming the youngest active spouse is age 65.

This rider has no cash value. You cannot surrender the Contract for the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base. The ING
Joint LifePay Plus Base is not available to annuitize.

Currently, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are eligible premiums for purposes of
determining the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. If this rider was purchased

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

49


 

before February 2, 2009, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are not eligible premiums, but
do increase the contract value used to determine the reset Maximum Annual Withdrawal under the benefit reset
feature of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider (see “ING Joint LifePay Plus Reset,” below). We reserve the right to
discontinue allowing premium payments during the Withdrawal Phase.

Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date of the first withdrawal, ONLY IF the quarterly
contract anniversary has not passed on which or after the youngest active spouse is age 65. While the ING Joint
LifePay Plus rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, withdrawals in a contract year up to the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal will reduce the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base dollar-for-dollar. Withdrawals while the ING Joint
LifePay Plus rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status are not guaranteed for the lifetime of the annuitant. This
status will then continue until the earliest of:

1 ) quarterly contract anniversary following the youngest active spouse’s 65th birthday, provided the
    contract owner does not decline the change to Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status;
2 ) reduction of the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base to zero, at which time the rider will terminate;
3 ) the date annuity payments begin (see “The Income Phase”);
4 ) reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual
    Withdrawal;
5 ) reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual
    Withdrawal (see “Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
6 ) the surrender of the Contract;
7 ) the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural
    owner), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract; or
8 ) automatic reset into the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

 

You will receive prior notice, of not less than 30 days, if you are in the Guaranteed Withdrawal Status and become
eligible for the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This notice will explain the change, its impact to you and
your options. You may decline this change.

Please note with the automatic reset into the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, it is possible that the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal, as recalculated, will be less due to your withdrawals (and reduction of the ING Joint
LifePay Plus Base as a result) while the rider was in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. See Appendix F, Illustration 6,
for an example. Also please note, however, that by declining automatic reset into the Lifetime Guaranteed
Withdrawal Status, your ING Joint LifePay Plus will not thereafter be automatically reset – to the then current
contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the 36 months preceding the calculation) if the
contract value is higher – as it could be while the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. No further
resets will be available. For more information, please see “ING Joint LifePay Plus Reset” below.

If you decline the automatic reset, your rider will continue in the Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. There will not be
another opportunity to automatically reset into the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. Thereafter, in the event
contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal, including due to poor market performance, your rider’s status will change to Automatic Periodic
Benefit Status. In Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, other than the payments as provided under the ING Joint
LifePay Plus rider, the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits). In the event contract
value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Contract and rider will
terminate without value. For more information about the effect of a withdrawal reducing the contract value to zero,
please see “Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below.

Please see below for more information about each of this rider’s four different statuses.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

50


 

Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date of the first withdrawal, SO LONG
AS the quarterly contract anniversary has passed on which or after the youngest active spouse is age 65. Or for
Contracts in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins upon automatic
reset. This status continues until the earliest of:

1 ) the date annuity payments begin (see “The Income Phase”);
2 ) reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
3 ) reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual
    Withdrawal (see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
4 ) the surrender of the contract; or
5 ) the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural
    owner), unless your active spouse beneficiary elects to continue the contract.

 

The rider’s status changes to Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status in the event contract value is reduced to
zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including due to poor
market performance. In Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, other than the payments as provided under the
ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits). Otherwise, if
contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Contract and
rider will terminate without value. For more information about the effect of a withdrawal reducing the Contract
value to zero, please see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” below. As described below, certain features
of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider may differ depending on whether you are in the Lifetime Guaranteed
Withdrawal Status.

Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is determined
on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins. It equals a percentage of the greater of 1) the contract value and 2)
the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base as of the last day of the Growth Phase. The first withdrawal after the effective
date of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider (which causes the end of the Growth Phase) is treated as occurring on
the first day of the Withdrawal Phase, immediately after calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The
Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage, which varies by age of the youngest active spouse on the date the
Withdrawal Phase begins, is as follows:

Youngest Active   Maximum Annual  
Spouse’s Age   Withdrawal Percentage  
0-64 * 4 %*
65-75   5 %
76-80   6 %
81 + 7 %

 

*If the Withdrawal Phase begins before the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the younger
spouse reaches age 65, withdrawals in a contract year up to 4% will reduce the ING Joint LifePay Plus
Base dollar-for-dollar, under what we refer to as the “Standard Withdrawal Benefit.” Then, on the
quarterly contract anniversary on or after the younger spouse reaches age 65, the ING Joint LifePay
Plus Base will automatically be reset to the current Contract value (excluding any premium credits
applied during the preceding 36 months), if greater, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be
recalculated.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

51


 

If this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:

Youngest Active   Maximum Annual  
Spouse’s Age   Withdrawal Percentage  
0-75 * 5 %*
76-80   6 %
81 + 7 %

 

*If the Withdrawal Phase begins before the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the younger spouse
reaches age 65, withdrawals in a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will reduce the ING
Joint LifePay Plus Base dollar-for-dollar, under what we refer to as the “Standard Withdrawal Benefit.” Then,
on the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the younger spouse reaches age 65, the ING Joint LifePay Plus
Base will automatically be reset to the current Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the
preceding 36 months), if greater, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be recalculated.

Once determined the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage never changes for the contract. This is
important to keep in mind in deciding when to take your first withdrawal because the younger you are at that
time, the lower the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage.

If the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while you are in the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider’s
Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, then you may elect a life only annuity option, in lieu of the Contract’s
other annuity options, under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the Contract and equal
annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, provided that, if both spouses are active, payments
under the life only annuity option will be calculated using the joint life expectancy table for both spouses. If
only one spouse is active, payments will be calculated using the single life expectancy table for the active
spouse.

Whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is subject to change depends on the extent of your withdrawals.
The amount of your withdrawal or withdrawals in a contract year that, when added together, do not exceed the
Maximum Withdrawal Amount do not reduce the Maximum Withdrawal Amount. However, if the total
amount of your withdrawals in any contract year exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, then the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced in the same proportion as the contract value is reduced by the
excess withdrawal.

For this purpose, an excess withdrawal is the lesser of the amount by which your total withdrawals in a contract
year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the amount of your present request for a withdrawal. The
amount of any applicable premium credit deduction (recapture) or surrender charges are not included in
determining whether the total amount of your withdrawals in a contract year exceeds the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal and triggers a pro-rata reduction. However, in the event that the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is
to be subject to a pro-rata reduction because of an excess withdrawal, the amount by which the Maximum
Annual Withdrawal will be reduced will include any premium credit deduction and surrender charges. See
Appendix FI, Illustrations 1 and 2 for examples of this concept.

Required Minimum Distributions. Withdrawals taken from the contract to satisfy the Required
Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code are considered withdrawals for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay
Plus rider, and will begin the Withdrawal Phase if the Withdrawal Phase has not already started. Any such
withdrawal that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for a specific contract year will not be deemed
excess withdrawals in that contract year for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, subject to the
following:

1 ) If the contract owner’s Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or
    before January 31 of that year), applicable to the contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual
    Withdrawal on that date, an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the
    Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

52


 

2 ) Once you have taken the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current contract year, the dollar
    amount of any additional withdrawals will count first against and reduce any unused Additional
    Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount
    for the current contract year – without being deemed an excess withdrawal.
 
3 ) In the event of any withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and all available
    Additional Withdrawal Amounts, the dollar amount of these withdrawals will be deemed excess
    withdrawals that cause the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be reduced on a pro-rata basis, as
    described above.
 
4 ) The Additional Withdrawal Amount is available on a calendar year basis and is recalculated every
    January, reset to equal that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year that
    exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date. Any unused amount of the Additional
    Withdrawal Amount carries over into the next calendar year and is available through the end of that
    year, at which time any remaining amount will expire.
 
5 ) The Additional Withdrawal Amount does not change in the event you choose to reset the Maximum
    Annual Withdrawal Amount. See “ING Joint LifePay Plus Reset Option” below. The Additional
    Withdrawal Amount is only subject to change when the Additional Withdrawal Amount is reset as
    described above.

 

See Appendix F, Illustrations 3 and 4.

Investment Advisory Fees. Withdrawals taken pursuant to a program established by the owner for the
payment of investment advisory fees to a named third party investment adviser for advice on management of
the contract’s values will not cause the Withdrawal Phase to begin. During the Growth Phase, such withdrawals
reduce the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base on a dollar-for-dollar basis, and during the Withdrawal Phase, these
withdrawals are treated as any other withdrawal.

Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the Contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of
the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Contract and the rider will terminate without value due to the pro-rata
reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal” above.

If the Contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal while the rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the rider will enter Automatic Periodic Benefit
Status and you are no longer entitled to make withdrawals. Instead, under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you
will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, until
the remaining ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is exhausted.

When the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1 ) the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under
    the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider;
2 ) no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3 ) any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

 

During Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal
to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will continue until the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is
reduced to zero, at which time the rider will terminate without value.

If when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status your net withdrawals to date
are less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you the difference

immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full Contract year following the date
the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

You may elect to receive systematic payments pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Under a systematic
withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of contract value will be withdrawn
from your Contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time
the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract
more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such
that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such
payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made
monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the payments will be made
at the end of the half-Contract year or Contract year, as applicable.

Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in
excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the contract and the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will terminate
without value due to the pro-rata reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,”
above.

If the contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal while the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the ING Joint
LifePay Plus rider will enter Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are no longer entitled to make
withdrawals. Instead, under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider you will begin to receive periodic payments in an
annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

When the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1 ) the contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under the
    ING Joint LifePay Plus rider;
2 ) no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3 ) any other riders attached to the contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

 

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount
that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The time period for which we will make these payments will
depend upon whether one or two spouses are active under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider at the time this
status begins. If both spouses are active under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, these payments will cease upon
the death of the second spouse, at which time both the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and the contract will
terminate without further value. If only one spouse is active under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, the
payments will cease upon the death of the active spouse, at which time both the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider
and the contract will terminate without value.

If when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status your net
withdrawals to date are less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you
the difference immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full contract year
following the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid
annually thereafter.

You may elect to receive systematic payments pursuant to the terms of the contract. Under a systematic
withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be
withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at
the time the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving
systematic withdrawals under the contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at
the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each contract year will equal the
annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

54


 

set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually
or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-contract year or contract year, as applicable.

ING Joint LifePay Plus Reset. Once the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins and the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been determined, on each contract anniversary we will increase (or “reset”)
the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base to the current Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during
the 36 months preceding the calculation), if the Contract value is higher. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal
will also be recalculated, and the remaining portion of the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be available
for withdrawal immediately. This reset ONLY occurs when the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal
Status, and is automatic.

If this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009, the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base and Maximum Annual
Withdrawal is reset on each quarterly contract anniversary.

We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider with a reset. In this event, you will receive prior notice,
of not less than 30 days, which explains the change, its impact to you and your options. You may decline this
change (and the reset). Please note, however, that by declining a reset, your ING Joint LifePay Plus Base will
not thereafter be reset, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will also not be recalculated; no further resets
will be available.

Investment Option Restrictions. While this rider is in effect, there are limits on the portfolios to which your
contract value may be allocated. Contract value allocated to portfolios other than Accepted Funds will be
rebalanced so as to maintain at least a specified percentage of such contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds,
which percentage depends on the rider’s purchase date:

Rider Purchase Date Fixed Allocation Fund Percentage  
On or After February 2, 2009 30 %
Before February 2, 2009 20 %

 

See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below. We have these investment option restrictions to
lessen the likelihood we would have to make payments under this rider. We require this allocation regardless of
your investment instructions to the Contract. The rider will not be issued until your Contract value is allocated in
accordance with these investment option restrictions. The timing of when and how we apply these restrictions is
discussed further below.

Accepted Funds. Currently, the Accepted Funds are:  
 
BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund ING Retirement Conservative Portfolio
ING American Funds Asset Allocation Portfolio ING Retirement Growth Portfolio
ING American Funds World Allocation Portfolio ING Retirement Moderate Growth Portfolio
ING Invesco Van Kampen Equity and Income ING Retirement Moderate Portfolio
Portfolio  
ING Liquid Assets Portfolio ING T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio
ING MFS Total Return Portfolio Fixed Interest Allocation
ING Oppenheimer Active Allocation Portfolio  
 
If this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009, the following are additional Accepted Funds:
 
ING Franklin Templeton Founding Strategy Portfolio  
ING WisdomTreeSM Global High-Yielding Equity Index Portfolio
 
No rebalancing is necessary when Contract value is allocated entirely to Accepted Funds. We may change
these designations at any time upon 30 days notice to you. If a change is made, the change will apply to
Contract value allocated to such portfolios after the date of the change.

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

55


 

Fixed Allocation Funds. Currently, the Fixed Allocation Funds are:

ING American Funds Bond Portfolio ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio
ING BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio ING U.S. Bond Index Portfolio
ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio  

 

You may allocate contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING
Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds
Automatic Rebalancing.

Other Funds. All portfolios available under the contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed
Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is
less than the specified percentage of the total contract value allocated to both the Fixed Allocation Funds and
Other Funds on any ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Date, we will automatically rebalance the contract
value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that the specified percentage of this amount is
allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. The specified percentage depends on the rider’s purchase date.
Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done
on a pro-rata basis from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds and will be the last transaction
processed on that date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on each contract anniversary and
after the following transactions:

1 ) receipt of additional premiums;
2 ) transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or
    specifically directed by you; and
3 ) withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

 

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the
contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the contract causes the allocations to be out of
compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic
Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See
“Appendix G – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.” You will be notified that Fixed
Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred, along with your new allocations, by a confirmation
statement that will be mailed to you after Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred.

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the
Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in them. See “Appendix G – Examples
of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING Joint
LifePay Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these
transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING
Joint LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your contract value reallocated in this manner.

Divorce. Generally, in the event of a divorce, the spouse who retains ownership of the contract will continue to
be entitled to all rights and benefits of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, while the ex-spouse will no longer have any
such rights or be entitled to any such benefits. In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal
Status, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider continues, and terminates upon the death of the owner (first owner in the
case of joint owners, or the annuitant in the case of a custodial IRA). Although spousal continuation may be
available under the Tax Code for a subsequent spouse, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider cannot be continued by the
new spouse. As the result of the divorce, we may be required to withdraw assets for the benefit of an ex-spouse.
Any such withdrawal will be considered a withdrawal for purposes of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount. In
other words, if a withdrawal incident to a divorce exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount, it will be
considered an excess withdrawal. See “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above. As noted, in

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

56


 

the event of a divorce there is no change to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and we will continue to deduct
charges for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, there will be no change to the periodic
payments made. Payments will continue until both spouses are deceased.

Death of Owner. The death of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner, or for custodial IRAs,
the annuitant) may cause the termination of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and its charges, depending upon
whether one or both spouses are in active status at the time of death, as described below.

1 ) If both spouses are in active status: If the surviving spouse elects to continue the contract and
    becomes the sole owner and annuitant, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will remain in effect pursuant
    to its original terms and ING Joint LifePay Plus coverage and charges will continue. As of the date the
    contract is continued, the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base will be reset to the current Contract value, if
    greater, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be recalculated as the Maximum Annual
    Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the new ING Joint LifePay Plus Base on the date the contract is
    continued. However, under no circumstances will this recalculation result in a reduction to the
    Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
 
    If the surviving spouse elects not to continue the contract, ING Joint LifePay Plus rider coverage and
    charges will cease upon the earlier of payment of the death benefit or notice that an alternative
    distribution option has been chosen.
 
2 ) If the surviving spouse is in inactive status: The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider terminates and ING
    Joint LifePay Plus coverage and charges cease upon the date of death of the last Active Spouse.

 

Change of Owner or Annuitant. Other than as a result of spousal continuation, you may not change the
annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and rider charges will terminate upon change of owner, including
adding an additional owner, except for the following ownership changes:

1 ) spousal continuation by an active spouse, as described above;
2 ) change of owner from one custodian to another custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
3 ) change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual (in order to
    avoid the owner’s spouse from being designated inactive, the owner’s spouse must be named sole
    beneficiary under the contract);
4 ) change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5 ) collateral assignments;
6 ) for nonqualified contracts only, the addition of a joint owner, provided that the additional joint owner
    is the original owner’s spouse and is active when added as joint owner;
7 ) for nonqualified contracts, removal of a joint owner, provided the removed joint owner is active and
    becomes the primary contract beneficiary; and
8 ) change of owner where the owner becomes the sole primary beneficiary and the sole primary
    beneficiary becomes the owner if both were active spouses at the time of the change.

 

Surrender Charges. If you elect the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, the amount of your withdrawals will be
subject to surrender charges if they exceed the free withdrawal amount, so long as there is contract value from which
to take your withdrawals. However, once your contract value is zero, any periodic payments under the ING Joint
LifePay Plus rider would not be subject to surrender charges. Moreover, with no contract value, none of your

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

57


 

contract level recurring charges (e.g., the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge) would be deducted. See Appendix F
for examples.

Loans. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

Federal Tax Considerations. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the
ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death
Benefit

WITHDRAWALS
 
Any time during the accumulation phase and before the death of the contract owner, except under certain qualified
contracts, you may withdraw all or part of your money. Keep in mind that if you request a withdrawal for more than
90% of the cash surrender value, and the remaining cash surrender value after the withdrawal is less than $2,500, we
will treat it as a request to surrender the Contract. If any single withdrawal or the sum of withdrawals exceeds the
Free Withdrawal Amount, you may incur a surrender charge. There is no surrender charge if, during each contract
year, the amount withdrawn is 10% or less of your contract value on the date of the withdrawal, less prior
withdrawals during that contract year. Under Option Package III, any unused percentage of the 10% Free
Withdrawal Amount from a contract year will carry forward into successive contract years, based on the percentage
remaining at the time of the last withdrawal in that contract year. In no event will the Free Withdrawal Amount at
any time exceed 30% of contract value. Please see Appendix D, Surrender Charge for Excess Withdrawals
Example.
 
You need to submit to us a written request specifying the Fixed Interest Allocations or subaccounts from which
amounts are to be withdrawn, otherwise the withdrawal will be made on a pro-rata basis from all of the subaccounts
in which you are invested. If there is not enough contract value in the subaccounts, we will deduct the balance of
the withdrawal from your Fixed Interest Allocations starting with the guaranteed interest periods nearest their
maturity dates until we have honored your request. We will determine the contract value as of the close of business
on the day we receive your withdrawal request at our Customer Service Center. The contract value may be more or
less than the premium payments made.
 
Your withdrawals under the ING LifePay Plus or ING Joint LifePay Plus riders will be subject to surrender charges
if they exceed the free withdrawal amount. However, once your contract value is zero, the periodic payments to
which you may be entitled under these optional riders will not be subject to surrender charges.
 
If any limitation on allocations to the Restricted Funds has been exceeded, subsequent withdrawals must be taken so
that the percentage of contract value in the Restricted Funds following the withdrawal would not be greater than the
percentage of contract value in the Restricted Funds prior to the withdrawal. So, in this event, you would either
need to take your withdrawal from the Restricted Funds or pro-rata from all variable subaccounts.
 
Please be aware that the benefit we pay under certain optional benefit riders may be reduced by any withdrawals you
take while the optional rider is in effect. Withdrawals may be subject to taxation and tax penalties. Other than the
surrender charge, there is no separate charge for electing any of the withdrawal options.
 
We offer the following three withdrawal options:
 
Regular Withdrawals
After the free look period, you may make regular withdrawals. Each withdrawal must be a minimum of $100.
 
Systematic Withdrawals
You may choose to receive automatic systematic withdrawal payments (1) from the contract value in the
subaccounts in which you are invested, or (2) from the interest earned in your Fixed Interest Allocations. Systematic
withdrawals may be taken monthly, quarterly or annually. If you have contract value allocated to one or more
Restricted Funds, and you elect to receive systematic withdrawals from the subaccounts in which you are invested,

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

58


 

the systematic withdrawals must be taken pro-rata from all subaccounts in which contract value is invested. If you
do not have contract value allocated to a Restricted Fund and choose systematic withdrawals on a non pro-rata basis,
we will monitor the withdrawals annually. If you subsequently allocate contract value to one or more Restricted
Funds, we will require you to take your systematic withdrawals on a pro-rata basis from all subaccounts in which
contract value is invested. There is no additional charge for this feature.

You decide the date on which you would like your systematic withdrawals to start. This date must be at least 30
days after the Contract Date and no later than the 28th day of the month. Subject to these rules, if you have not
indicated the date, your systematic withdrawals will occur on the next business day after your Contract Date (or the
monthly or quarterly anniversary thereof) for your desired frequency.

Each systematic withdrawal amount must be a minimum of $100. The amount of your systematic withdrawal can
either be (1) a fixed dollar amount, or (2) an amount based on a percentage of the contract value. Both forms of
systematic withdrawals are subject to the following maximum, which is calculated on each withdrawal date:

  Maximum Percentage  
Frequency of Contract Value  
Monthly 0.83 %
Quarterly 2.50 %
Annually 10.00 %

 

A fixed dollar systematic withdrawal of less than $100 on any withdrawal date will terminate your systematic
withdrawal. If the amount to be withdrawn would exceed the applicable maximum percentage of your contract
value on any withdrawal date, we will automatically reduce the amount withdrawn so that it equals such percentage.
Thus, your fixed dollar systematic withdrawals will never exceed the maximum percentage. If you want fixed dollar
systematic withdrawals to exceed the maximum percentage and are willing to incur associated surrender charges,
consider the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature which you may add to your regular systematic withdrawal
program.

If your systematic withdrawal is based on a percentage of contract value and the amount to be withdrawn based on
that percentage would be less than $100, we will contact you and seek alternative instructions. Unless you provide
alternative instructions, if the systematic withdrawal would exceed the maximum percentage, we will send the
amount, and then automatically cancel your systematic withdrawal option.

Systematic withdrawals from Fixed Interest Allocations are limited to interest earnings during the prior month,
quarter, or year, depending on the frequency you chose. A Fixed Interest Allocation may not participate in both the
systematic withdrawal option and the dollar cost averaging program at the same time.

You may change the amount or percentage of your systematic withdrawal once each contract year or cancel this
option at any time by sending satisfactory notice to our Customer Service Center at least 7 days before the next
scheduled withdrawal date. If you submit a subsequent premium payment after you have applied for systematic
withdrawals, we will not adjust future withdrawals under the systematic withdrawal program unless you specifically
request that we do so.

The systematic withdrawal option may commence in a contract year where a regular withdrawal has been taken but
you may not change the amount or percentage of your withdrawals in any contract year during which you have
previously taken a regular withdrawal. You may not elect the systematic withdrawal option if you are taking IRA
withdrawals.

Subject to availability, a spousal or non-spousal beneficiary may elect to receive death benefits as payments over the
beneficiary’s lifetime (“stretch”). “Stretch” payments will be subject to the same limitations as systematic
withdrawals, and non-qualified “stretch” payments will be reported on the same basis as other systematic
withdrawals.

Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature. You may add the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature to
your regular fixed dollar systematic withdrawal program. This feature allows you to receive a systematic

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

59


 

withdrawal in a fixed dollar amount in addition to your systematic withdrawal program regardless of any surrender
charges. Systematic withdrawals from Fixed Interest Allocations under the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal
Feature are available only in connection with Section 72(q) or 72(t) distributions. You choose the amount of the
fixed systematic withdrawals, which may total up to an annual maximum of 10% of your contract value as
determined on the day we receive your election of this feature. The maximum limit will not be recalculated when
you make additional premium payments, unless you instruct us to do so. We will assess a surrender charge on the
withdrawal date if the withdrawal exceeds the maximum limit as calculated on the withdrawal date. We will apply
the surrender charge directly to your contract value (rather than to the systematic withdrawal) so that the amount of
each systematic withdrawal remains fixed.

Fixed dollar systematic withdrawals which are intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 72(q) or 72(t) of the
Tax Code may exceed the maximum. Such withdrawals are subject to surrender charges when they exceed the
applicable maximum percentage.

IRA Withdrawals
If you have a non-Roth IRA Contract and will be at least age 70½ during the current calendar year, you may elect to
have distributions made to you to satisfy requirements imposed by federal tax law. IRA withdrawals provide payout
of amounts required to be distributed by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) rules governing mandatory
distributions under qualified plans. We will send you a notice before your distributions commence. You may elect
to take IRA withdrawals at that time, or at a later date. You may not elect IRA withdrawals and participate in
systematic withdrawals at the same time. If you do not elect to take IRA withdrawals, and distributions are required
by federal tax law, distributions adequate to satisfy the requirements imposed by federal tax law may be made.
Thus, if you are participating in systematic withdrawals, distributions under that option must be adequate to satisfy
the mandatory distribution rules imposed by federal tax law.

You choose the frequency of your IRA withdrawals (monthly, quarterly or annually) and the start date. This date
must be at least 30 days after he Contract Date and no later than the 28th day of the month. Subject to these rules, if
you have not indicated the date, your IRA withdrawals will occur on the next business day after your Contract Date
for your desired frequency.

You may request that we calculate for you the amount that is required to be withdrawn from your Contract each year
based on the information you give us and various choices you make. For information regarding the calculation and
choices you have to make, see the SAI. Or, we will accept your written instructions regarding the calculated amount
required to be withdrawn from your Contract each year. The minimum dollar amount you can withdraw is $100.
When we determine the required IRA withdrawal amount for a taxable year based on the frequency you select, if
that amount is less than $100, we will pay $100. At any time where the IRA withdrawal amount is greater than the
contract value, we will cancel the Contract and send you the amount of the cash surrender value.

You may change the payment frequency of your IRA withdrawals once each contract year or cancel this option at
any time by sending satisfactory notice to our Customer Service Center at least 7 days before the next scheduled
withdrawal date.

Consult your tax adviser regarding the tax consequences associated with taking withdrawals. You are
responsible for determining that withdrawals comply with applicable law. A withdrawal made before the taxpayer
reaches age 59½ may result in a 10% penalty tax. See “Federal Tax Considerations” for more details.

TRANSFERS AMONG YOUR INVESTMENTS (EXCESSIVE TRADING POLICY)
 
You may transfer your contract value among the subaccounts in which you are invested and your Fixed Interest
Allocations at the end of the free look period until the income phase payment start date. Please note that if you elect
one of the living benefit riders, you may not allocate contract value to the Fixed Interest Allocations. Transfers to a
GET Fund series may only be made during the offering period for that GET Fund series. We currently do not
charge you for transfers made during a contract year, but reserve the right to charge $25 for each transfer after the
twelfth transfer in a contract year. We also reserve the right to limit the number of transfers you may make and

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

60


 

may otherwise modify or terminate transfer privileges if required by our business judgment or in accordance
with applicable law.

If you allocate contract value to an investment option that has been designated as a Restricted Fund, your ability to
transfer contract value to the Restricted Fund may be limited. A transfer to the Restricted Funds will not be
permitted to the extent that it would increase the contract value in the Restricted Fund to more than the applicable
limits following the transfer. We do not limit transfers from Restricted Funds. If the result of multiple reallocations
is to lower the percentage of total contract value in the Restricted Fund, the reallocation will be permitted even if the
percentage of contract value in the Restricted Fund is greater than the limit.

Transfers will be based on values at the end of the business day in which the transfer request is received at our
Customer Service Center.

The minimum amount that you may transfer is $100 or, if less, your entire contract value held in a subaccount or a
Fixed Interest Allocation.

To make a transfer, you must notify our Customer Service Center and all other administrative requirements must be
met. Any transfer request received after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time or the close of regular trading on the New York
Stock Exchange will be effected on the next business day. Separate Account NY-B and the Company will not be
liable for following instructions communicated by telephone or other approved electronic means that we reasonably
believe to be genuine. We may require personal identifying information to process a request for transfer made over
the telephone, over the internet or other approved electronic means. Please be advised that the risk of a fraudulent
transaction is increased with telephonic or electronic instructions, even if appropriate identifying information is
provided.

Limits on Frequent or Disruptive Transfers.

The contract is not designed to serve as a vehicle for frequent transfers. Frequent transfer activity can disrupt
management of a fund and raise its expenses through:

· Increased trading and transaction costs;
· Forced and unplanned portfolio turnover;
· Lost opportunity costs; and
· Large asset swings that decrease the fund's ability to provide maximum investment return to all contract
  owners.

 

This in turn can have an adverse effect on fund performance. Accordingly, individuals or organizations that use
market-timing investment strategies or make frequent transfers should not purchase the Contract.

Excessive Trading Policy. We and the other members of the ING family of companies that provide multi-fund
variable insurance and retirement products, have adopted a common Excessive Trading Policy to respond to the
demands of the various fund families that make their funds available through our products to restrict excessive fund
trading activity and to ensure compliance with Rule 22c-2 of the 1940 Act.

We actively monitor fund transfer and reallocation activity within our variable insurance products to identify
violations of our Excessive Trading Policy. Our Excessive Trading Policy is violated if fund transfer and
reallocation activity:

· Meets or exceeds our current definition of Excessive Trading, as defined below; or
· Is determined, in our sole discretion, to be disruptive or not in the best interests of other owners of our
  variable insurance and retirement products.

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

61


 

We currently define Excessive Trading as:

· More than one purchase and sale of the same fund (including money market funds) within a 60 calendar
  day period (hereinafter, a purchase and sale of the same fund is referred to as a “round-trip”). This means
  two or more round-trips involving the same fund within a 60 calendar day period would meet our definition
  of Excessive Trading; or
· Six round-trips involving the same fund within a twelve month period.

 

The following transactions are excluded when determining whether trading activity is excessive:

· Purchases or sales of shares related to non-fund transfers (for example, new purchase payments,
  withdrawals and loans);
· Transfers associated with scheduled dollar cost averaging, scheduled rebalancing or scheduled asset
  allocation programs;
· Purchases and sales of fund shares in the amount of $5,000 or less;
· Purchases and sales of funds that affirmatively permit short-term trading in their fund shares, and
  movement between such funds and a money market fund; and
· Transactions initiated by us, another member of the ING family of insurance companies or a fund.

 

If we determine that an individual or entity has made a purchase of a fund within 60 days of a prior round-trip
involving the same fund, we will send them a letter (once per year) warning that another sale of that same fund
within 60 days of the beginning of the prior round-trip will be deemed to be Excessive Trading and result in a six
month suspension of their ability to initiate fund transfers or reallocations through the Internet, facsimile, Voice
Response Unit (VRU), telephone calls to the ING Customer Service Center, or other electronic trading medium that
we may make available from time to time (“Electronic Trading Privileges”). Likewise, if we determine that an
individual or entity has made five round-trips involving the same fund within a rolling twelve month period, we will
send them a letter warning that another purchase and sale of that same fund within twelve months of the initial
purchase in the first round-trip in the prior twelve month period will be deemed to be Excessive Trading and result
in a suspension of their Electronic Trading Privileges. According to the needs of the various business units, a copy
of the warning letters may also be sent, as applicable, to the person(s) or entity authorized to initiate fund transfers
or reallocations, the agent/registered representative or investment adviser for that individual or entity. A copy of the
warning letters and details of the individual’s or entity’s trading activity may also be sent to the fund whose shares
were involved in the trading activity.

If we determine that an individual or entity has violated our Excessive Trading Policy, we will send them a letter
stating that their Electronic Trading Privileges have been suspended for a period of six months. Consequently, all
fund transfers or reallocations, not just those which involve the fund whose shares were involved in the activity that
violated our Excessive Trading Policy, will then have to be initiated by providing written instructions to us via
regular U.S. mail. Suspension of Electronic Trading Privileges may also extend to products other than the product
through which the Excessive Trading activity occurred. During the six month suspension period, electronic “inquiry
only” privileges will be permitted where and when possible. A copy of the letter restricting future transfer and
reallocation activity to regular U.S. mail and details of the individual’s or entity’s trading activity may also be sent,
as applicable, to the person(s) or entity authorized to initiate fund transfers or reallocations, the agent/registered
representative or investment adviser for that individual or entity and the fund whose shares were involved in the
activity that violated our Excessive Trading Policy.

Following the six month suspension period during which no additional violations of our Excessive Trading Policy
are identified, Electronic Trading Privileges may again be restored. We will continue to monitor the fund transfer
and reallocation activity, and any future violations of our Excessive Trading Policy will result in an indefinite
suspension of Electronic Trading Privileges. A violation of our Excessive Trading Policy during the six month
suspension period will also result in an indefinite suspension of Electronic Trading Privileges.

We reserve the right to suspend Electronic Trading Privileges with respect to any individual or entity, with or
without prior notice, if we determine, in our sole discretion, that the individual’s or entity’s trading activity is

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

disruptive or not in the best interests of other owners of our variable insurance products, regardless of whether the
individual’s or entity’s trading activity falls within the definition of Excessive Trading set forth above.

Our failure to send or an individual’s or entity’s failure to receive any warning letter or other notice contemplated
under our Excessive Trading Policy will not prevent us from suspending that individual’s or entity’s Electronic
Trading Privileges or taking any other action provided for in our Excessive Trading Policy.

We do not allow exceptions to our Excessive Trading Policy. We reserve the right to modify our Excessive Trading
Policy, or the policy as it relates to a particular fund, at any time without prior notice, depending on, among other
factors, the needs of the underlying fund(s), the best interests of contract owners and fund investors and/or state or
federal regulatory requirements. If we modify our policy, it will be applied uniformly to all contract owners or, as
applicable, to all contract owners investing in the underlying fund.

Our Excessive Trading Policy may not be completely successful in preventing market timing or excessive trading
activity. If it is not completely successful, fund performance and management may be adversely affected, as noted
above.

Limits Imposed by the Funds. Each underlying fund available through the variable insurance and retirement
products offered by us and/or the other members of the ING family of insurance companies, either by prospectus or
stated contract, has adopted or may adopt its own excessive/frequent trading policy, and orders for the purchase of
fund shares are subject to acceptance or rejection by the underlying fund. We reserve the right, without prior notice,
to implement fund purchase restrictions and/or limitations on an individual or entity that the fund has identified as
violating its excessive/frequent trading policy and to reject any allocation or transfer request to a subaccount if the
corresponding fund will not accept the allocation or transfer for any reason. All such restrictions and/or limitations
(which may include, but are not limited to, suspension of Electronic Trading Privileges and/or blocking of future
purchases of a fund or all funds within a fund family) will be done in accordance with the directions we receive from
the fund.

Agreements to Share Information with Fund Companies. As required by Rule 22c-2 under the 1940 Act, we
have entered into information sharing agreements with each of the fund companies whose funds are offered through
the contract. Contract owner trading information is shared under these agreements as necessary for the fund
companies to monitor fund trading and our implementation of our Excessive Trading Policy. Under these
agreements, the company is required to share information regarding contract owner transactions, including but not
limited to information regarding fund transfers initiated by you. In addition to information about contract owner
transactions, this information may include personal contract owner information, including names and social security
numbers or other tax identification numbers.

As a result of this information sharing, a fund company may direct us to restrict a contract owner’s transactions if
the fund determines that the contract owner has violated the fund’s excessive/frequent trading policy. This could
include the fund directing us to reject any allocations of premium or contract value to the fund or all funds within the
fund family.

Dollar Cost Averaging
You may elect to participate in our dollar cost averaging (DCA) program through either the ING Liquid Assets
Portfolio or a Fixed Interest Allocation, subject to availability, starting 30 days after the Contract Date. These
investment options serve as the source accounts from which we will, on a monthly basis, automatically transfer a set
dollar amount of money to the subaccounts you specify. There is no additional charge for dollar cost averaging.
Dollar cost averaging is not available with automatic rebalancing and may be subject to limited availability with
systematic withdrawals.

We also may offer DCA Fixed Interest Allocations for durations of 6 months and 1 year, subject to availability,
exclusively for use with the dollar cost averaging program. Transfers made pursuant to a dollar cost averaging
program do not count toward the 12-transfer limit on free transfers. There is no additional charge for the dollar cost
averaging program.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

63


 

The dollar cost averaging program is designed to lessen the impact of market fluctuation on your investment. Since
we transfer the same dollar amount to other subaccounts each month, more units of a subaccount are purchased if
the value of its unit is low and fewer units are purchased if the value of its unit is high. Therefore, a lower than
average value per unit may be achieved over the long term. However, we cannot guarantee this. When you elect the
dollar cost averaging program, you are continuously investing in securities regardless of fluctuating price levels.
You should consider your tolerance for investing through periods of fluctuating price levels.

Dollar cost averaging requires a minimum monthly transfer amount of $100. We will transfer all your money
allocated to that source account into the subaccount(s) you specify in equal payments over the relevant duration.
The last payment will include earnings accrued over the duration. If you make an additional premium payment into
a Fixed Interest Allocation subject to dollar cost averaging, the amount of your transfers under the dollar cost
averaging program remains the same, unless you instruct us to increase the transfer amount.

If you do not specify the subaccounts to which the dollar amount of the source account is to be transferred, we will
transfer the money to the subaccounts in which you are invested on a proportional basis, subject to any fund
purchase restrictions. The transfer date is the same day each month as your contract date. If, on any transfer date,
your contract value in a source account is equal to or less than the amount you have elected to have transferred, the
entire amount will be transferred and the program will end. You may terminate the dollar cost averaging program at
any time by sending satisfactory notice to our Customer Service Center at least 7 days before the next transfer date.
A Fixed Interest Allocation or DCA Fixed Interest Allocation may not participate in the dollar cost averaging
program and in systematic withdrawals at the same time.

You are permitted to transfer contract value to a Restricted Fund, subject to the limitations described above in this
section and in “Trust and Funds – Restricted Funds.” Compliance with the individual and aggregate Restricted Fund
limits will be reviewed when the dollar cost averaging program is established. Transfers under the dollar cost
averaging program must be within those limits. We will not review again your dollar cost averaging election for
compliance with the individual and aggregate limits for investment in the Restricted Funds except in the case of the
transactions described below.

· Amount added to source account: If you add amounts to the source account which would increase the
  amount to be transferred under the dollar cost averaging program, we will review the amounts to be
  transferred to ensure that the individual and aggregate limits are not being exceeded. If such limits would
  be exceeded, we will require that the dollar cost averaging transfer amounts be changed to ensure that the
  transfers are within the limits based on the then current allocation of contract value to the Restricted
  Fund(s) and the then current value of the amount designated to be transferred to that Restricted Fund(s).
 
· Additional premium paid: Up to the individual Restricted Fund percentage limit may be allocated to a
  Restricted Fund. If more than the individual limit has been requested to be allocated to a Restricted Fund,
  we will look at the aggregate limit, subtract the current allocation to Restricted Funds, and subtract the
  current value of amounts to be transferred under the dollar cost averaging program to Restricted Funds.
  The excess, if any, is the maximum that may be allocated pro-rata to Restricted Funds.
 
· Reallocation request is made while the dollar cost averaging program is active: If the reallocation would
  increase the amount allocated to Restricted Funds, the maximum that may be so allocated is the individual
  Restricted Fund percentage limit, less the current allocation to Restricted Funds and less the current value
  of any remaining amounts to be transferred under the dollar cost averaging program to the Restricted
  Funds.

 

The GET Fund may not be included in a dollar cost averaging program. We may in the future offer additional
subaccounts or withdraw any subaccount or Fixed Interest Allocation to or from the dollar cost averaging program,
stop offering DCA Fixed Interest Allocations or otherwise modify, suspend or terminate this program. Of course,
such change will not affect any dollar cost averaging programs in operation at the time. Transfers made pursuant to
a dollar cost averaging program do not count toward the 12-transfer limit on free transfers.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

Automatic Rebalancing
If you have at least $10,000 of contract value invested in the subaccounts of Separate Account NY-B, you may elect
to have your investments in the subaccounts automatically rebalanced. You are permitted to reallocate between
Restricted and non-Restricted Funds, subject to the limitations described above in this section and in “Trust and
Funds – Restricted Funds.” If the reallocation would increase the amount allocated to the Restricted Funds, the
maximum that may be so allocated is the individual Restricted Fund percentage limit, less the current allocation to
all Restricted Funds. Automatic rebalancing is subject to any fund purchase restrictions; however, transfers made
pursuant to automatic rebalancing do not count toward the 12-transfer limit on free transfers. Amounts allocated to
the GET Fund will not be affected by automatic rebalancing. There is no additional charge for this feature.

We will transfer funds under your Contract on a quarterly, semi-annual, or annual calendar basis among the
subaccounts to maintain the investment blend of your selected subaccounts. The minimum size of any allocation
must be in full percentage points. Rebalancing does not affect any amounts that you have allocated to the Fixed
Interest Division. The program may be used in conjunction with the systematic withdrawal option only if
withdrawals are taken pro-rata. Automatic rebalancing is not available if you participate in dollar cost averaging.
Automatic rebalancing will not take place during the free look period.

To participate in automatic rebalancing, send satisfactory notice to our Customer Service Center. We will begin the
program on the last business day of the period in which we receive the notice. You may cancel the program at any
time. The program will automatically terminate if you choose to reallocate your contract value among the
subaccounts or if you make an additional premium payment or partial withdrawal on other than a pro-rata basis.
Additional premium payments and partial withdrawals effected on a pro-rata basis will not cause the automatic
rebalancing program to terminate.

DEATH BENEFIT CHOICES
 
Death Benefit During the Accumulation Phase
During the accumulation phase, a death benefit is payable when either the contract owner or the first of joint owners
(under Option Package I only) or the annuitant (when a contract owner is not an individual) dies. Assuming you are
the contract owner, your beneficiary will receive a death benefit unless the beneficiary is your surviving spouse and
elects to continue the Contract. The death benefit paid depends on the option package you have chosen. The death
benefit value is calculated as of the claim date (the close of the business day on which we receive written notice and
due proof of death, as well as any required paperwork, at our Customer Service Center). If your beneficiary elects to
delay receipt of the death benefit until a date after the time of death, the amount of the benefit payable in the future
may be affected. The proceeds may be received in a single sum, applied to any of the income phase payment
options or, if available, paid over the beneficiary’s life expectancy. (See “Systematic Withdrawals” above.) A
beneficiary’s right to elect an income phase payment option or receive a lump sum payment may have been
restricted by a contract owner. If so, such rights or options will not be available to the beneficiary.
 
If we do not receive a request to apply the death benefit proceeds to an income phase payment option, we will make
a single sum distribution. Unless you elect otherwise, the distribution will generally be made into an interest bearing
account, backed by our general account. This account is not FDIC insured and can be accessed by the
beneficiary through a draftbook feature. The beneficiary may access death benefit proceeds at any time
without penalty. Interest credited under this account may be less than under other
settlement options, and the Company seeks to make a profit on these accounts. We will generally distribute
death benefit proceeds within 7 days after our Customer Service Center has received sufficient information to make
the payment. For information on required distributions under federal income tax laws, you should see “Federal Tax
Considerations – Required Distributions upon Death.” At the time of death benefit election, the beneficiary may
elect to receive the death benefit proceeds directly by check rather than through the draftbook feature of the interest
bearing account by notifying our Customer Service Center.
 
You may select one of the option packages described below which will determine the death benefit payable. Option
Packages II and III are not available where the Contract is held by joint owners. A change in ownership of the
Contract may affect the amount of the death benefit payable.

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

65


 

The death benefit may be subject to certain mandatory distribution rules required by federal tax law.

The death benefit depends upon the option package in effect on the date the contract owner dies.

The differences are summarized as follows:

  Option Package I Option Package II Option Package III
Death Benefit The greatest of: The greatest of: The greatest of:
on Death of the (1 ) the Standard Death (1 ) the Standard Death (1 ) the Standard Death
Owner:     Benefit*;     Benefit*;     Benefit*;
  (2 ) the contract value*; or (2 ) the contract value*; (2 ) the contract value*;
  (3 ) return of premium. (3 ) return of premium; or (3 ) return of premium; or
        (4 ) the Annual Ratchet (4 ) the Annual Ratchet
            death benefit*.     death benefit*.

 

* less any premium credits added after or within 12 months prior to death.

Return of premium equals premiums paid, excluding any premium credits, reduced pro-rata for withdrawals.

The Standard Death Benefit equals total premium payments plus premium credits reduced pro-rata for
withdrawals.

The Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit equals the maximum contract value on each contract anniversary
occurring on or prior to attainment of age 90, adjusted for new premiums and premium credits and reduced pro-rata
for withdrawals. On the contract date, the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit equals the initial premium plus
any premium credit.

The pro-rata withdrawal adjustment to the guaranteed death benefit amount under Option Package I, II or III is equal
to (1) divided by (2), with the result multiplied by (3) where:

(1 ) is the Contract Value withdrawn;
(2 ) is the Contract Value immediately prior to the withdrawal; and
(3 ) is the amount of the applicable death benefit immediately prior to the withdrawal.

 

The reduction in the guaranteed death benefit may be greater than the amount withdrawn. Any premium credit
added after or within 12 months prior to the date of death is forfeited, and is not included in the Contract Value for
purposes of calculating the Standard Death Benefit or the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit.

Transfers Between Option Packages. You may transfer from one option package to another on each contract
anniversary. A written request for such transfer must be received at our Customer Service Center within 60 days
prior to the contract anniversary. No transfers between option packages are permitted: 1) after you attain age 80; or
2) if the Contract is owned by joint owners. A change of owner may cause an option package transfer on other than a
contract anniversary. If you transfer from Option I to Option II or III, the Annual Ratchet Death Benefit will equal
the contract value on the effective date of the transfer.

Death Benefit During the Income Phase
If any contract owner or the annuitant dies during the income phase, we will pay the beneficiary any certain benefit
remaining under the income phase payment option in effect at the time.

Continuation after Death — Spouse
If at the contract owner’s death, the surviving spouse of the deceased contract owner is the beneficiary and such
surviving spouse elects to continue the contract as his or her own the following will apply:

If the guaranteed death benefit as of the date we receive due proof of death, minus the contract value also on that
date, is greater than zero, we will add such difference to the contract value. We will allocate such addition to the
variable subaccounts in proportion to the contract value in the subaccounts, unless you direct otherwise. If there is
no contract value in any subaccount, the addition will be allocated to the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio, or its
successor. Such addition to contract value will not affect the guaranteed death benefit. If the guaranteed death
benefit is less than or equal to the contract value, the contract value will not change.

The death benefits under each of the available options will continue based on the surviving spouse’s age on the date
that ownership changes. If death occurs during the first contract year, the premium credit will not be forfeited upon
spousal continuation, and the premium credit option charge will continue for the remainder of the seven-year period.
The premium credit will be subject to recapture upon surrender of the Contract or partial withdrawal, in accordance
with the premium credit forfeiture schedule. Subsequent premium payments made by the continuing spouse during
the first contract year will be subject to the premium credit option charge and the premium credit forfeiture schedule.
See “The Annuity Contract Additional Credit to Premium.”

If death occurs after the first contract year, the premium credit will not be forfeited upon spousal continuation, and
the premium credit option charge will continue for the remainder of the seven year period. The premium credit will
not be subject to forfeiture upon surrender of the Contract or partial withdrawals.

At subsequent surrender, any surrender charge applicable to premiums paid prior to the date we receive due proof of
death of the contract owner will be waived. Any premiums paid later will be subject to any applicable surrender
charge.

Any addition to contract value, as described above, is available only to the spouse of the owner as of the date of
death of the owner if such spouse under the provisions of the contract elects to continue the contract as his or her
own.

Continuation after Death — Non Spouse
If the beneficiary or surviving joint owner is not the spouse of the owner, the contract may continue in force subject
to the required distribution rules of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Tax Code”) apply. See next section, “Required
Distributions upon Contract Owner’s Death.”

If the guaranteed death benefit as of the date we receive due proof of death, minus the contract value also on that
date, is greater than zero, we will add such difference to the contract value. We will allocate such addition to the
variable subaccounts in proportion to the contract value in the subaccounts, unless you direct otherwise. If there is
no contract value in any subaccount, the addition will be allocated to the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio, or its
successor. Such addition to contract value will not affect the guaranteed death benefit. If the guaranteed death
benefit is less than or equal to the contract value, the contract value will not change.

If death occurs within 12 months of a premium credit being applied, the premium credit will be forfeited and not
included in the calculation of either the contract value, the Standard Death Benefit or the Annual Ratchet Enhanced
Death Benefit.

The death benefit terminates upon continuation. At subsequent surrender, any surrender charge applicable to
premium payments paid prior to the date we receive due proof of death of the contract owner will be waived. No
additional premium payments may be made.

Required Distributions Upon Contract Owner’s Death
We will not allow any payment of benefits provided under a non-qualified Contract which do not satisfy the
requirements of Section 72(s) of the Tax Code.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

67


 

If any owner of a non-qualified contract dies before the income phase payment start date, the death benefit payable
to the beneficiary calculated as described under “Death Benefit Choices” in this prospectus, will be distributed as
follows: (a) the death benefit must be completely distributed within 5 years of the contract owner’s date of death; or
(b) the beneficiary may elect, within the 1-year period after the contract owner’s date of death, to receive the death
benefit in the form of an annuity from us, provided that (i) such annuity is distributed in substantially equal
installments over the life of such beneficiary or over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of such
beneficiary; and (ii) such distributions begin not later than 1 year after the contract owner’s date of death.

Notwithstanding (a) and (b) above, if the sole contract owner’s sole beneficiary is the deceased owner’s surviving
spouse, then such spouse may elect to continue the Contract under the same terms as before the contract owner’s
death. Upon receipt of such election from the spouse at our Customer Service Center: (1) all rights of the spouse as
contract owner’s beneficiary under the Contract in effect prior to such election will cease; (2) the spouse will
become the owner of the Contract and will also be treated as the contingent annuitant, if none has been named and
only if the deceased owner was the annuitant; and (3) all rights and privileges granted by the Contract or allowed by
ReliaStar of NY will belong to the spouse as contract owner of the Contract. This election will be deemed to have
been made by the spouse if such spouse makes a premium payment to the Contract or fails to make a timely election
as described in this paragraph. If the owner’s beneficiary is a nonspouse, the distribution provisions described in
subparagraphs (a) and (b) above, will apply even if the annuitant and/or contingent annuitant are alive at the time of
the contract owner’s death.

Subject to availability, and our then current rules, a spousal or non-spousal beneficiary may elect to receive death
benefits as payments over the life expectancy of the beneficiary (“stretch”). “Stretch” payments will be subject to
the same limitations as systematic withdrawals, and non-qualified “stretch” payments will be reported on the same
basis as other systematic withdrawals.

If we do not receive an election from a non-spouse owner’s beneficiary within the 1-year period after the contract
owner’s date of death, then we will pay the death benefit to the owner’s beneficiary in a cash payment within five
years from the date of death. We will determine the death benefit as of the date we receive proof of death. We will
make payment of the proceeds on or before the end of the 5-year period starting on the owner’s date of death. Such
cash payment will be in full settlement of all our liability under the Contract.

The death benefits under any of the Options will terminate. At subsequent surrender, any surrender charge
applicable to premiums paid prior to the date we receive due proof of death of the contract owner will be waived.
Premiums are not permitted after such date.

If a contract owner dies after the income phase payment start date, we will continue to distribute any benefit payable
at least as rapidly as under the annuity option then in effect. All of the contract owner’s rights granted under the
Contract or allowed by us will pass to the contract owner’s beneficiary.

If a Contract has joint owners we will consider the date of death of the first joint owner as the death of the contract
owner and the surviving joint owner will become the beneficiary of the Contract. If any contract owner is not an
individual, the death of an annuitant shall be treated as the death of the owner.

Effect of ING LifePay Plus and ING Joint LifePay Plus Riders on Death Benefit
Please see “ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider – Death of
Owner or Annuitant” for information about the effect of the ING LifePay Plus rider on the death benefit under your
Contract and a description of the impact of the owner’s or annuitant’s death on the ING LifePay Plus rider. Please

Owner or Annuitant” for information about the effect of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider on the death benefit under
your Contract and a description of the impact of the owner’s or annuitant’s death on the ING Joint LifePay Plus
rider.

THE INCOME PHASE
 
During the income phase, you stop contributing dollars to your contract and start receiving payments from your
accumulated contract value.
 
Initiating Payments. At least 30 days prior to the date you want to start receiving payments, you must notify us in
writing of all of the following:

 

· Payment start date;
· Income phase payment option (see the income phase payment options table in this section);
· Payment frequency (i.e., monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually);
· Choice of fixed, and, if available at the time an income phase payment option is selected, variable or a
  combination of both fixed and variable payments; and
· Selection of an assumed net investment rate (only if variable payments are elected).

 

Your Contract will continue in the accumulation phase until you properly start income phase payments. Once an
income phase payment option is selected, it may not be changed. Our current annuity options provide only for fixed
payments.

What Affects Payment Amounts? Some of the factors that may affect the amount of your income phase payments
include: your age; gender; contract value; the income phase payment option selected; the number of guaranteed
payments (if any) selected; whether you select fixed, variable or a combination of both fixed and variable payments;
and, for variable payments, the assumed net investment rate selected. Variable payments are not currently available.

Fixed Payments. Amounts funding fixed income phase payments will be held in the Company’s general account.
The amount of fixed payments does not vary with investment performance over time.

Variable Payments. Amounts funding your variable income phase payments will be held in the subaccount(s) you
select. Not all subaccounts available during the accumulation phase may be available during the income phase.
Payment amounts will vary depending upon the performance of the subaccounts you select. For variable income
phase payments, you must select an assumed net investment rate. Variable payments are not currently available.

Assumed Net Investment Rate. If you select variable income phase payments, you must also select an assumed
net investment rate of either 5% or 3½%. If you select a 5% rate, your first income phase payment will be higher,
but subsequent payments will increase only if the investment performance of the subaccounts you selected is greater
than 5% annually, after deduction of fees. Payment amounts will decline if the investment performance is less than
5%, after deduction of fees.

If you select a 3½% rate, your first income phase payment will be lower and subsequent payments will increase
more rapidly or decline more slowly depending upon changes to the net investment rate of the subaccounts you
selected. For more information about selecting an assumed net investment rate, call us for a copy of the SAI.

Minimum Payment Amounts. The income phase payment option you select must result in:

· A first income phase payment of at least $50; and
· Total yearly income phase payments of at least $250.

 

If your contract value is too low to meet these minimum payment amounts, you will receive one lump-sum payment.
Unless prohibited by law, we reserve the right to increase the minimum payment amount based on increases
reflected in the Consumer Price Index-Urban (CPI-U) since July 1, 1993.

Betterment of Rates. If the payments under the Income Phase Payment Option that you elect would be lower than
the payments that would be provided using the same value (greater of cash surrender value or 95% of contract value)

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

69


 

under a single premium immediate annuity then offered by us, you will receive the larger payments under your
payment option.

Restrictions on Start Dates and the Duration of Payments. Income phase payments may not begin during the
first contract year, or, unless we consent, later than the later of:

· The first day of the month following the annuitant’s 90th birthday; or
· The tenth anniversary of the last premium payment made to your Contract.

 

Income phase payments will not begin until you have selected an income phase payment option. If there are
surrender charges remaining on the income phase payment start date, your income phase payment option must be
either a life annuity or have a period certain of at least 10 years. Failure to select an income phase payment option
by the later of the annuitant’s 85th birthday or the tenth anniversary of your last premium payment may have adverse
tax consequences. You should consult with a qualified tax adviser if you are considering delaying the selection of
an income phase payment option before the later of these dates.

For qualified contracts only, income phase payments may not extend beyond:

1 ) The life of the annuitant;
2 ) The joint lives of the annuitant and beneficiary;
3 ) A guaranteed period greater than the annuitant’s life expectancy; or
4 ) A guaranteed period greater than the joint life expectancies of the annuitant and beneficiary.

 

When income phase payments start, the age of the annuitant plus the number of years for which payments are
guaranteed may not exceed 100.

If income phase payments start when the annuitant is at an advanced age, such as over 85, it is possible that the
Contract will not be considered an annuity for federal tax purposes.

See “Federal Tax Considerations” for further discussion of rules relating to income phase payments.

Charges Deducted

· If you elect a life income payment option, we make a daily deduction for mortality and expense risks equal
  to 1.25% of amounts invested in the subaccounts. If variable income phase payments are selected, we
  make a daily deduction for expense risks from amounts held in the subaccounts. Therefore, if you choose
  variable income phase payments and a nonlifetime income phase payment option, we still make a
  deduction from the subaccounts you select, even though we no longer assume mortality risks. The amount
  of this charge, on an annual basis, is equal to 1.25% of amounts invested in the subaccounts. See “Fees and
  Expenses.”
 
· An administrative expense charge of 0.15% applies during the income phase. We deduct this charge daily
  from the subaccounts corresponding to the funds you select. The charge applies during the entire income
  phase. See “Fees and Expenses.”
 
· If the premium credit option was elected, the premium credit option charge of 0.50% continues during the
  income phase for the remainder of the seven year period from the addition of the premium credit. We
  deduct this charge daily from your contract value in both the subaccounts and the Fixed Interest Division.
  See “Fees and Expenses.”

Death Benefit during the Income Phase. The death benefits that may be available to a beneficiary are outlined in
the income phase payment options table below. If a lump-sum payment is due as a death benefit, we will make
payment within seven calendar days after we receive proof of death acceptable to us and the request for the payment
in good order at our Customer Service Center. Unless you elect otherwise, the distribution will be made into an
interest bearing account, backed by our general account, that is accessed by the beneficiary through a checkbook
feature. The beneficiary may access death benefit proceeds at any time without penalty. If continuing income phase
payments are elected, the beneficiary may not elect to receive a lump sum at a future date unless the income phase
payment option specifically allows a withdrawal right. We will calculate the value of any death benefit at the next
valuation after we receive proof of death and a request for payment. Such value will be reduced by any payments
made after the date of death.

Beneficiary Rights. A beneficiary’s right to elect an income phase payment option or receive a lump-sum payment
may have been restricted by the contract owner. If so, such rights or options will not be available to the beneficiary.

Partial Entry into the Income Phase. You may elect an income phase payment option for a portion of your
contract value, while leaving the remaining portion invested in the accumulation phase. Whether the Tax Code
considers such payments taxable as income phase payments or as withdrawals is currently unclear; therefore, you
should consult with a qualified tax adviser before electing this option. The same or different income phase payment
option may be selected for the portion left invested in the accumulation phase.

Taxation. To avoid certain tax penalties, you or your beneficiary must meet the distribution rules imposed by the
Tax Code. Additionally, when selecting an income phase payment option, the Tax Code requires that your expected
payments will not exceed certain durations. See “Federal Tax Considerations.”

Payment Options
The following table lists the income phase payment options and accompanying death benefits available during the
income phase. We may offer additional income phase payment options under the Contract from time to time. Once
income phase payments begin, the income phase payment option selected may not be changed.

Terms to understand:
Annuitant(s): The person(s) on whose life expectancy(ies) the income phase payments are based.

Beneficiary(ies): The person(s) or entity(ies) entitled to receive a death benefit, if any, under the income phase
payment option selected.

Lifetime Income Phase Payment Option

OTHER CONTRACT PROVISIONS
 
Reports to Contract Owners
We confirm purchase, transfer and withdrawal transactions usually within 5 business days of processing. We may
also send you a quarterly report within 31 days after the end of each calendar quarter. The report will show the
contract value, cash surrender value, and the death benefit as of the end of the calendar quarter. The report will also
show the allocation of your contract value and reflects the amounts deducted from or added to the contract value.
You have 30 days to notify our Customer Service Center of any errors or discrepancies. We will notify you when
any shareholder reports of the investment portfolios in which Separate Account NY-B invests are available. We will
also send any other reports, notices or documents we are required by law to furnish to you.
 
Suspension of Payments
The Company reserves the right to suspend or postpone the date of any payment or determination of values, beyond
the seven permitted days, on any business day (1) when the New York Stock Exchange is closed; (2) when trading
on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted; (3) when an emergency exists as determined by the SEC so that the
sale of securities held in Separate Account NY-B may not reasonably occur or so that the Company may not
reasonably determine the value of Separate Account NY-B’s net assets; or (4) during any other period when the SEC
so permits for the protection of security holders. We have the right to delay payment of amounts from a Fixed
Interest Allocation for up to 6 months.
 
In Case of Errors in Your Application
If an age or gender given in the application or enrollment form is misstated, the amounts payable or benefits
provided by the Contract shall be those that the premium payment would have bought at the correct age or sex.

Assigning the Contract as Collateral
You may assign a non-qualified Contract as collateral security for a loan but you should understand that your rights
and any beneficiary’s rights may be subject to the terms of the assignment. An assignment likely has federal tax
consequences. You must give us satisfactory written notice at our Customer Service Center in order to make or
release an assignment. We are not responsible for the validity of any assignment.

Contract Changes — Applicable Tax Law
We have the right to make changes in the Contract to continue to qualify the Contract as an annuity under applicable
federal tax law. You will be given advance notice of such changes.

Free Look
You may cancel your Contract within your 10-day free look period. We deem the free look period to expire 15 days
after we mail the Contract to you. Your state may require a longer free look period under certain circumstances. To
cancel, you need to send your Contract to our Customer Service Center or to the agent from whom you purchased it.
We will refund the contract value. For purposes of the refund during the free look period, we exclude any premium
credit and include a refund of any charges deducted from your contract value. Because of the market risks
associated with investing in the portfolios, the contract value returned may be greater or less than the premium
payment you paid. We may, at our discretion, require that premiums designated for investment in the subaccounts
as well as premiums designated for a Fixed Interest Allocation be allocated to the specially designated subaccount
(currently, the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio) during the free look period. Your free look rights depend on the laws of
the state in which you purchase the Contract. Your Contract is void as of the day we receive your Contract and
cancellation request. We determine your contract value at the close of business on the day we receive your written
request. If you keep your Contract after the free look period and the investment is allocated to a subaccount
specially designated by the Company, we will put your money in the subaccount(s) chosen by you, based on the
accumulation unit value next computed for each subaccount, and/or in the Fixed Interest Allocation chosen by you.

Special Arrangements
We may reduce or waive any Contract, rider, or benefit fees or charges for certain group or sponsored arrangements,
under special programs, and for certain employees, agents, and related persons of our parent corporation and its
affiliates. We reduce or waive these items based on expected economies, and the variations are based on differences
in costs or services.

Selling the Contract
Our affiliate, Directed Services LLC, 1475 Dunwoody Drive, West Chester, Pennsylvania 19380 is the principal
underwriter and distributor of the Contract, as well as of contracts issued by our affiliates, ING USA Annuity and
Life Insurance Company and ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company. Directed Services LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company, is registered with the SEC as a broker/dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., or FINRA.

Directed Services LLC does not retain any commissions or compensation that we pay to it for Contract sales.
Directed Services LLC enters into selling agreements with affiliated and unaffiliated broker/dealers to sell the
Contracts through their registered representatives who are licensed to sell securities and variable insurance products,
which representatives we refer to as selling firms. Selling firms are also registered with the SEC and are FINRA
member firms.

The following selling firms are affiliated with the Company and have entered into selling agreements with Directed Services LLC for the sale of our variable annuity contracts:

· ING Financial Advisers, LLC
· ING Financial Partners, Inc.

 

Directed Services LLC pays selling firms compensation for the promotion and sale of the Contracts. Registered
representatives of the selling firms who solicit sales of the Contracts typically receive a portion of the compensation
paid by Directed Services LLC to the selling firm in the form of commissions or other compensation, depending on
the agreement between the selling firm and the registered representative. This compensation, as well as other
incentives or payments, is not paid directly by contract owners or the Separate Account. We intend to recoup this
compensation and other sales expenses paid to selling firms through fees and charges imposed under the Contracts.

Directed Services LLC pays selling firms for Contract sales according to one or more schedules. This compensation
is generally based on a percentage of premium payments. Selling firms may receive commissions of up to 7.5% of
premium payments. In addition, selling firms may receive ongoing annual compensation of up to 1.25% of all, or a
portion, of values of Contracts sold through the firm. Individual representatives may receive all or a portion of
compensation paid to their selling firm, depending on their firm’s practices. Commissions and annual
compensation, when combined, could exceed 7.5% of total premium payments.

Directed Services LLC has special compensation arrangements with certain selling firms based on those firms’
aggregate or anticipated sales of the Contracts or other criteria. These special compensation arrangements will not
be offered to all selling firms, and the terms of such arrangements may differ among selling firms based on various
factors. Any such compensation payable to a selling firm will not result in any additional direct charge to you by us.

In addition to the direct cash compensation for sales of Contracts described above, Directed Services LLC may also
pay selling firms additional compensation or reimbursement of expenses for their efforts in selling the Contracts to
you and other customers. These amounts may include:

· Marketing/distribution allowances which may be based on the percentages of premium received, the
  aggregate commissions paid and/or the aggregate assets held in relation to certain types of designated
  insurance products issued by the Company and/or its affiliates during the year;
 
· Loans or advances of commissions in anticipation of future receipt of premiums (a form of lending to
  agents/registered representatives). These loans may have advantageous terms such as reduction or
  elimination of the interest charged on the loan and/or forgiveness of the principal amount of the loan,
  which terms may be conditioned on fixed insurance product sales;
 
· Education and training allowances to facilitate our attendance at certain educational and training
  meetings to provide information and training about our products. We also hold training programs from
  time to time at our expense;
 
· Sponsorship payments or reimbursements for broker/dealers to use in sales contests and/or meetings
  for their agents/registered representatives who sell our products. We do not hold contests based solely
  on the sales of this product;
 
· Certain overrides and other benefits that may include cash compensation based on the amount of
  earned commissions, agent/representative recruiting or other activities that promote the sale of
  policies; and

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

74


 

· Additional cash or noncash compensation and reimbursements permissible under existing law. This
  may include, but is not limited to, cash incentives, merchandise, trips, occasional entertainment, meals
  and tickets to sporting events, client appreciation events, business and educational enhancement items,
  payment for travel expenses (including meals and lodging) to pre-approved training and education
  seminars, and payment for advertising and sales campaigns.

 

We may pay commissions, dealer concessions, wholesaling fees, overrides, bonuses, other allowances and benefits
and the costs of all other incentives or training programs from our resources, which include the fees and charges
imposed under the Contract.

The following is a list of the top 25 selling firms that, during 2010, received the most compensation, in the
aggregate, from us in connection with the sale of registered annuity contracts issued by us, ranked by total dollars
received:

1 . Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC 14 . ING Financial Partners, Inc. CAREER
2 . LPL Financial Corporation 15 . Wells Fargo Investments LLC
3 . Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Inc. 16 . Woodbury Financial Services Inc.
4 . ING Financial Partners Inc. 17 . Morgan Keegan and Company Inc.

12 . Securities America Inc. 25 . PrimeVest Financial Services Inc.
13 . Financial Network Investment Corporation      

 

Directed Services LLC may also compensate wholesalers/distributors, and their sales management personnel, for
Contract sales within the wholesale/distribution channel. This compensation may be based on a percentage of
premium payments and/or a percentage of Contract values. Directed Services LLC may, at its discretion, pay
additional cash compensation to wholesalers/distributors for sales by certain broker-dealers or “focus firms.”

We do not pay any additional compensation on the sale or exercise of any of the Contract’s optional benefit riders
offered in this prospectus.

This is a general discussion of the types and levels of compensation paid by us for sale of our variable annuity
contracts. It is important for you to know that the payment of volume- or sales-based compensation to a selling firm
or registered representative may provide that registered representative a financial incentive to promote our contracts
over those of another company, and may also provide a financial incentive to promote one of our contracts over
another.

OTHER INFORMATION
 
Voting Rights
We will vote the shares of a Trust owned by Separate Account NY-B according to your instructions. However, if
the 1940 Act or any related regulations should change, or if interpretations of it or related regulations should change,
and we decide that we are permitted to vote the shares of a Trust in our own right, we may decide to do so.
 
We determine the number of shares that you have in a subaccount by dividing the Contract’s contract value in that
subaccount by the net asset value of one share of the portfolio in which a subaccount invests. We count fractional
votes. We will determine the number of shares you can instruct us to vote 180 days or less before a Trust
shareholder meeting. We will ask you for voting instructions by mail at least 10 days before the meeting. If we do
not receive your instructions in time, we will vote the shares in the same proportion as the instructions received from
all contracts in that subaccount. We will also vote shares we hold in Separate Account NY-B which are not
attributable to contract owners in the same proportion. The effect of proportional voting is that a small number of
contract owners may decide the outcome of a vote.
 
State Regulation
We are regulated by the Insurance Department of the State of New York. We are also subject to the insurance laws
and regulations of all jurisdictions where we do business. The variable Contract offered by this prospectus has been
approved where required by those jurisdictions. We are required to submit annual statements of our operations,
including financial statements, to the Insurance Departments of the various jurisdictions in which we do business to
determine solvency and compliance with state insurance laws and regulations.
 
Legal Proceedings
We are not aware of any pending legal proceedings that involve Separate Account NY-B as a party.
 
The Company is involved in threatened or pending lawsuits/arbitrations arising from the normal conduct of
business. Due to the climate in insurance and business litigation/arbitration, suits against the Company sometimes
include claims for substantial compensatory, consequential or punitive damages and other types of relief. Moreover,
certain claims are asserted as class actions, purporting to represent a group of similarly situated individuals. While it
is not possible to forecast the outcome of such lawsuits/arbitrations, in light of existing insurance, reinsurance and
established reserves, it is the opinion of management that the disposition of such lawsuits/arbitrations will not have a
materially adverse effect on the Company’s operations or financial position.
 
Directed Services LLC, the principal underwriter and distributor of the contract, is a party to threatened or pending
lawsuits/arbitration that generally arise from the normal conduct of business. Some of these suits may seek class
action status and sometimes include claims for substantial compensatory, consequential or punitive damages and
other types of relief. Directed Services LLC is not involved in any legal proceeding that, in the opinion of
management, is likely to have a material adverse effect on its ability to distribute the contract.

 

FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
 
Introduction
This section discusses our understanding of current federal income tax laws affecting the contract. Federal income
tax treatment of the contract is complex and sometimes uncertain. You should keep the following in mind when
reading it:

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

76


 

Your tax position (or the tax position of the designated beneficiary, as applicable) determines federal taxation
of amounts held or paid out under the contract;
Tax laws change. It is possible that a change in the future could affect contracts issued in the past;
This section addresses some but not all applicable federal income tax rules and does not discuss federal estate
and gift tax implications, state and local taxes, or any other tax provisions; and
We do not make any guarantee about the tax treatment of the contract or transactions involving the contract.

 

We do not intend this information to be tax advice. For advice about the effect of federal income taxes or any other
taxes on amounts held or paid out under the contract, consult a tax adviser.

Types of Contracts: Non-Qualified or Qualified
The Contract may be purchased on a non-tax-qualified basis (non-qualified contracts) or purchased on a tax-
qualified basis (qualified contracts).

Non-qualified contracts are purchased with after tax contributions and are not related to retirement plans that receive
special income tax treatment under the Tax Code.

Qualified Contracts are designed for use by individuals whose premium payments are comprised solely of proceeds
from and/or contributions under retirement plans that are intended to qualify for special income tax treatment under
Sections 401, 408 or 408A, and some provisions of 403 and 457 of the Tax Code.

Effective January 1, 2009, except in the case of a rollover contribution as permitted under the Tax Code or as a
result of an intra-plan exchange or plan-to-plan transfer described under the Final Regulations, contributions to a
section 403(b) tax sheltered annuity contract may only be made by the Employer sponsoring the Plan under which
the assets in your contract are covered subject to the applicable Treasury Regulations and only if the Company, in its
sole discretion, agrees to be an approved provider.

Taxation of Non-Qualified Contracts

Premiums
You may not deduct the amount of your premiums to a non-qualified contract.

Taxation of Gains Prior to Distribution
Tax Code Section 72 governs taxation of annuities in general. We believe that if you are a natural person you
will generally not be taxed on increases in the value of a non-qualified Contract until a distribution occurs or until
annuity payments begin. This assumes that the Contract will qualify as an annuity contract for federal income tax
purposes. For these purposes, the agreement to assign or pledge any portion of the contract value generally will be
treated as a distribution. In order to be eligible to receive deferral of taxation, the following requirements must be
satisfied:

Diversification. Tax Code Section 817(h) requires that in a nonqualified contract the investments of the
funds be “adequately diversified” in accordance with Treasury Regulations in order for the Contract to qualify as an
annuity contract under federal tax law. The separate account, through the funds, intends to comply with the
diversification requirements prescribed by Tax Code Section 817(h) and by the Treasury in Reg. Sec. 1.817-5,
which affects how the funds’ assets may be invested. If it is determined, however, that your Contract does not
satisfy the applicable diversification requirements and rulings because a subaccount’s corresponding fund fails to be
adequately diversified for whatever reason, we will take appropriate steps to bring your Contract into compliance
with such regulations and rulings, and we reserve the right to modify your Contract as necessary to do so.

Investor Control. Although earnings under non-qualified contracts are generally not taxed until
withdrawn, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has stated in published rulings that a variable contract owner will be
considered the owner of separate account assets if the contract owner possesses incidents of investment control over
the assets. In these circumstances, income and gains from the separate account assets would be currently includible
in the variable contract owner’s gross income. Future guidance regarding the extent to which owners could direct
their investments among subaccounts without being treated as owners of the underlying assets of the separate
account may adversely affect the tax treatment of existing contracts. The Company therefore reserves the right to

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

77


 

modify the contract as necessary to attempt to prevent the contract holder from being considered the federal tax
owner of a pro rata share of the assets of the separate account.

Required Distributions. In order to be treated as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes, the
Tax Code requires any non-qualified Contract to contain certain provisions specifying how your interest in the
Contract will be distributed in the event of your death. The non-qualified Contracts contain provisions that are
intended to comply with these Tax Code requirements, although no regulations interpreting these requirements have
yet been issued. When such requirements are clarified by regulation or otherwise, we intend to review such
distribution provisions and modify them if necessary to assure that they comply with the applicable requirements.

Non-Natural Holders of a Non-Qualified Contract. If you are not a natural person, a non-qualified
contract generally is not treated as an annuity for income tax purposes and the income on the contract for the taxable
year is currently taxable as ordinary income. Income on the contract is any increase in the contract value over the
“investment in the contract” (generally, the premiums or other consideration you paid for the contract less any
nontaxable withdrawals) during the taxable year. There are some exceptions to this rule and a non-natural person
should consult with its tax adviser prior to purchasing the Contract. When the contract owner is not a natural
person, a change in the annuitant is treated as the death of the contract owner.

Delayed Annuity Starting Date. If the Contract’s annuity starting date occurs (or is scheduled to occur) at
a time when the annuitant has reached an advanced age (e.g., after age 85), it is possible that the Contract would not
be treated as an annuity for federal income tax purposes. In that event, the income and gains under the Contract
could be currently includible in your income.

Taxation of Distributions

General. When a withdrawal from a non-qualified Contract occurs, the amount received will be treated as
ordinary income subject to tax up to an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the contract value (unreduced by the
amount of any surrender charge) immediately before the distribution over the contract owner’s investment in the
contract at that time. Investment in the contract is generally equal to the amount of all premiums to the contract,
plus amounts previously included in your gross income as the result of certain loans, assignments or gifts, less the
aggregate amount of non-taxable distributions previously made.

In the case of a surrender under a non-qualified Contract, the amount received generally will be taxable only to the
extent it exceeds the contract owner’s investment in the contract (cost basis).

10% Penalty Tax. A distribution from a non-qualified Contract may be subject to a federal tax penalty
equal to 10% of the amount treated as income. In general, however, there is no penalty on distributions:

made on or after the taxpayer reaches age 59½;
made on or after the death of a contract owner (the annuitant if the contract owner is a non-natural
person);
attributable to the taxpayer’s becoming disabled as defined in the Tax Code;
made as part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least annually) over your life or life
expectancy or the joint lives or joint life expectancies of you and your designated beneficiary; or
the distribution is allocable to investment in the contract before August 14, 1982.

 

The 10% penalty does not apply to distributions from an immediate annuity as defined in the Tax Code. Other
exceptions may be applicable under certain circumstances and special rules may be applicable in connection with
the exceptions enumerated above. A tax adviser should be consulted with regard to exceptions from the penalty tax.

Tax-Free Exchanges. Section 1035 of the Tax Code permits the exchange of a life insurance, endowment
or annuity contract for an annuity contract on a tax-free basis. In such instance, the “investment in the contract” in
the old contract will carry over to the new contract. You should consult with your tax advisor regarding procedures
for making Section 1035 exchanges.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

78


 

If your Contract is purchased through a tax-free exchange of a life insurance, endowment or annuity contract that
was purchased prior to August 14, 1982, then any distributions other than annuity payments will be treated, for tax
purposes, as coming:

First, from any remaining “investment in the contract” made prior to August 14, 1982 and exchanged into
the Contract;
Next, from any “income on the contract” attributable to the investment made prior to August 14, 1982;
Then, from any remaining “income on the contract;” and
Lastly, from any remaining “investment in the contract.”

 

The IRS has concluded that in certain instances, the partial exchange of a portion of one annuity contract for another
contract will be tax-free. Pursuant to IRS guidance, receipt of withdrawals, surrenders or annuity payments
(annuitizations) from either the original contract or the new contract during the 12 month period following the
partial exchange may retroactively negate the partial exchange. If the partial exchange is retroactively negated, the
partial surrender of the original contract will be treated as a withdrawal, taxable as ordinary income to the extent of
gain in the original contract and, if the partial exchange occurred prior to you reaching age 59½ , may be subject to
an additional 10% tax penalty. A taxable event may be avoided if requirements identified as a qualifying event are
satisfied. We are not responsible for the manner in which any other insurance company, for tax reporting purposes,
or the IRS, with respect to the ultimate tax treatment, recognizes or reports a partial exchange. We strongly advise
you to discuss any proposed 1035 exchange or subsequent distribution within 12 months with your tax advisor prior
to proceeding with the transaction.

Taxation of Annuity Payments. Although tax consequences may vary depending on the payment option
elected under an annuity contract, a portion of each annuity payment is generally not taxed and the remainder is
taxed as ordinary income. The non-taxable portion of an annuity payment is generally determined in a manner that
is designed to allow you to recover your investment in the contract ratably on a tax-free basis over the expected
stream of annuity payments, as determined when annuity payments start. Once your investment in the contract has
been fully recovered, however, the full amount of each subsequent annuity payment is subject to tax as ordinary
income.

On September 27, 2010, President Obama signed into law the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010, which included
language that permits the partial annuitization of non-qualified annuities, effective for amounts received in taxable
years beginning after December 31, 2010. The provision applies an exclusion ratio to any amount received as an
annuity under a portion of an annuity provided that the annuity payments are made for a period of 10 years or more
or for life. Pending the issuance of clarifying guidance, the application of this law change is unclear. Please consult
your tax adviser before electing a partial annuitization.
Death Benefits. Amounts may be distributed from a Contract because of your death or the death of the
annuitant. Generally, such amounts are includible in the income of the recipient as follows: (i) if distributed in a
lump sum, they are taxed in the same manner as a surrender of the Contract, or (ii) if distributed under a payment
option, they are taxed in the same way as annuity payments. Special rules may apply to amounts distributed after a
Beneficiary has elected to maintain Contract value and receive payments.

Different distribution requirements apply if your death occurs:

After you begin receiving annuity payments under the Contract; or
Before you begin receiving such distributions.

 

If your death occurs after you begin receiving annuity payments, distributions must be made at least as rapidly as
under the method in effect at the time of your death.

If your death occurs before you begin receiving annuity payments, your entire balance must be distributed within
five years after the date of your death. For example, if you died on September 1, 2010, your entire balance must

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

79


 

be distributed by August 31, 2015. However, if distributions begin within one year of your death, then payments
may be made over one of the following timeframes:

Over the life of the designated beneficiary; or
Over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the designated beneficiary.

 

If the designated beneficiary is your spouse, the contract may be continued with the surviving spouse as the new
contract owner. If the contract owner is a non-natural person and the primary annuitant dies, the same rules apply
on the death of the primary annuitant as outlined above for the death of a contract owner.

The Contract offers a death benefit that may exceed the greater of the premium payments and the contract value.
Certain charges are imposed with respect to the death benefit. It is possible that these charges (or some portion
thereof) could be treated for federal tax purposes as a distribution from the Contract.

Assignments and Other Transfers. A transfer, pledge or assignment of ownership of a non-qualified
contract, the selection of certain annuity dates, or the designation of an annuitant or payee other than an owner may
result in certain tax consequences to you that are not discussed herein. The assignment, pledge or agreement to
assign or pledge any portion of the contract value generally will be treated as a distribution. Anyone contemplating
any such transfer, pledge, assignment, or designation or exchange, should consult a tax adviser regarding the
potential tax effects of such a transaction.

Immediate Annuities. Under Section 72 of the Tax Code, an immediate annuity means an annuity (1)
which is purchased with a single premium, (2) with annuity payments starting within one year from the date of
purchase, and (3) which provides a series of substantially equal periodic payments made annually or more
frequently. While this Contract is not designed as an immediate annuity, treatment as an immediate annuity would
have significance with respect to exceptions from the 10% early withdrawal penalty, to contracts owned by non-
natural persons, and for certain exchanges.

Multiple Contracts. Tax laws require that all non-qualified deferred annuity contracts that are issued by a
company or its affiliates to the same contract owner during any calendar year be treated as one annuity contract for
purposes of determining the amount includible in gross income under Tax Code Section 72(e). In addition, the
Treasury Department has specific authority to issue regulations that prevent the avoidance of Tax Code Section
72(e) through the serial purchase of annuity contracts or otherwise.

Withholding. We will withhold and remit to the IRS a part of the taxable portion of each distribution
made under a Contract unless the distributee notifies us at or before the time of the distribution that he or she elects
not to have any amounts withheld. Withholding is mandatory, however, if the distributee fails to provide a valid
taxpayer identification number or if we are notified by the IRS that the taxpayer identification number we have on
file is incorrect. The withholding rates applicable to the taxable portion of periodic annuity payments are the same
as the withholding rates generally applicable to payments of wages. In addition, a 10% withholding rate applies to the
taxable portion of non-periodic payments. Regardless of whether you elect to have federal income tax withheld, you
are still liable for payment of federal income tax on the taxable portion of the payment.

Certain states have indicated that state income tax withholding will also apply to payments from the contracts made
to residents. Generally, an election out of federal withholding will also be considered an election out of state
withholding. In some states, you may elect out of state withholding, even if federal withholding applies. If you
need more information concerning a particular state or any required forms, please contact our Customer Service
Center.

If you or your designated beneficiary is a non-resident alien, then any withholding is governed by Tax Code Section
1441 based on the individual’s citizenship, the country of domicile and treaty status, and we may require additional
documentation prior to processing any requested transaction.

Taxation of Qualified Contracts

General
The Contracts are primarily designed for use with IRAs under Tax Code Sections 401, 408 or 408A, and some
provisions of 403 and 457 (We refer to all of these as “qualified plans”). The tax rules applicable to participants in
these qualified plans vary according to the type of plan and the terms and conditions of the plan itself. The ultimate
effect of federal income taxes on the amounts held under a Contract, or on annuity payments, depends on the type of
retirement plan and your tax status. Special favorable tax treatment may be available for certain types of
contributions and distributions. In addition, certain requirements must be satisfied in purchasing a qualified contract
with proceeds from a tax-qualified plan in order to continue receiving favorable tax treatment.

Adverse tax consequences may result from: contributions in excess of specified limits; distributions before age 59½
(subject to certain exceptions); distributions that do not conform to specified commencement and minimum
distribution rules; and in other specified circumstances. Some qualified plans may be subject to additional
distribution or other requirements that are not incorporated into the Contract. No attempt is made to provide more
than general information about the use of the Contracts with qualified plans. Contract owners, annuitants, and
beneficiaries are cautioned that the rights of any person to any benefits under these qualified plans may be subject to
the terms and conditions of the plans themselves, regardless of the terms and conditions of the Contract. The
Company is not bound by the terms and conditions of such plans to the extent such terms contradict the Contract,
unless we consent.

Contract owners and beneficiaries generally are responsible for determining that contributions, distributions and
other transactions with respect to the contract comply with applicable law. Therefore, you should seek competent
legal and tax advice regarding the suitability of a contract for your particular situation. The following discussion
assumes that qualified contracts are purchased with proceeds from and/or contributions under retirement plans or
programs that qualify for the intended special federal tax treatment.

Tax Deferral
Under the federal tax laws, earnings on amounts held in annuity contracts are generally not taxed until they are
withdrawn. However, in the case of a qualified plan (as defined in this prospectus), an annuity contract is not
necessary to obtain this favorable tax treatment and does not provide any tax benefits beyond the deferral already
available to the qualified plan itself. Annuities do provide other features and benefits (such as guaranteed living
benefits and/or death benefits or the option of lifetime income phase options at established rates) that may be
valuable to you. You should discuss your alternatives with your financial representative taking into account the
additional fees and expenses you may incur in an annuity.

Section 401(a), 401(k), Roth 401(k), and 403(a) Plans. Sections 401(a), 401(k), and 403(a) of the Tax
Code permit certain employers to establish various types of retirement plans for employees, and permits self-
employed individuals to establish these plans for themselves and their employees. These retirement plans may
permit the purchase of Contracts to accumulate retirement savings under the plans. Employers intending to use the
Contract with such plans should seek competent legal advice.

The contracts may also be available as a Roth 401(k), as described in Tax Code Section 402A, and we may set up
accounts for you under the Contract for Roth 401(k) contributions (“Roth 401(k) accounts”). Tax Code Section
402A allows employees of certain private employers to contribute after-tax salary contributions to a Roth 401(k),
which provides for tax-free distributions, subject to certain restrictions.

Individual Retirement Annuities. Section 408 of the Tax Code permits eligible individuals to contribute
to an individual retirement program known as an Individual Retirement Annuity (“IRA”). IRAs are subject to limits
on the amounts that can be contributed, the deductible amount of the contribution, the persons who may be eligible,
and the time when distributions commence. Contributions to IRAs must be made in cash or as a rollover or a
transfer from another eligible plan. Also, distributions from IRAs, individual retirement accounts, and other types of
retirement plans may be “rolled over” on a tax-deferred basis into an IRA. If you make a tax-free rollover of a
distribution from an IRA you may not make another tax-free rollover from the IRA within a 1-year period. Sales of
the contract for use with IRAs may be subject to special requirements of the IRS.

The IRS has not reviewed the contracts described in this prospectus for qualification as IRAs and has not addressed,
in a ruling of general applicability, whether the contract’s death benefit provisions comply with IRS qualification
requirements.

Roth IRAs. Section 408A of the Tax Code permits certain eligible individuals to contribute to a Roth IRA.
Contributions to a Roth IRA are subject to limits on the amount of contributions and the persons who may be
eligible to contribute, are not deductible, and must be made in cash or as a rollover or transfer from another Roth
IRA or other IRA. Certain qualifying individuals may convert an IRA, SEP, or a SIMPLE to a Roth IRA. Such
rollovers and conversions are subject to tax, and other special rules may apply. If you make a tax-free rollover of a
distribution from a Roth IRA to another Roth IRA, you may not make another tax-free rollover from the Roth IRA
within a 1-year period. A 10% penalty may apply to amounts attributable to a conversion to a Roth IRA if the
amounts are distributed during the five taxable years beginning with the year in which the conversion was made.

Sales of a contract for use with a Roth IRA may be subject to special requirements of the IRS. The IRS has not
reviewed the contracts described in this prospectus for qualification as IRAs and has not addressed, in a ruling of
general applicability, whether the contract’s death benefit provisions comply with IRS qualification requirements.

Section 403(b) Tax-Sheltered Annuities. The contracts are no longer available for purchase as Tax Code
section 403(b) tax-sheltered annuities. Existing contracts issued as Tax Code section 403(b) tax-sheltered annuities
will continue to be maintained as such under the applicable rules and regulations.

The Treasury Department has issued regulations which generally take effect on January 1, 2009. Existing contracts
will be modified as necessary to comply with these regulations where allowed, or where required by law in order to
maintain their status as section 403(b) tax-sheltered annuities. The final regulations include: (a) the ability to
terminate a 403(b) plan, which would entitle a participant to a distribution; (b) the revocation of IRS Revenue
Ruling 90-24, and the resulting increase in restrictions on a participant’s right to transfer his or her 403(b) accounts;
and (3) the imposition of withdrawal restrictions on non-salary reduction contribution amounts, as well as other
changes.

Contributions
In order to be excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes, total annual contributions to
certain qualified plans are limited by the Tax Code. You should consult with your tax adviser in connection with
contributions to a qualified contract.

Distributions – General
Certain tax rules apply to distributions from the Contract. A distribution is any amount taken from a Contract
including withdrawals, annuity payments, rollovers, exchanges and death benefit proceeds. We report the taxable
portion of all distributions to the IRS.

Section 401(a), 401(k) and 403(a) Plans. Distributions from these plans are taxed as received unless one
of the following is true:

The distribution is an eligible rollover distribution and is rolled over to another plan eligible to receive
rollovers or to a traditional IRA in accordance with the Tax Code;
You made after-tax contributions to the plan. In this case, depending upon the type of distribution, the
amount will be taxed according to the rules detailed in the Tax Code; or
The distribution is a qualified health insurance premium of a retired safety officer as defined in the
Pension Protection Act of 2006.

 

A payment is an eligible rollover distribution unless it is:
 
part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least one per year) made over the life
expectancy of the participant or the joint life expectancy of the participant and his designated beneficiary
or for a specified period of 10 years or more;
a required minimum distribution under Tax Code Section 401(a)(9);
a hardship withdrawal;

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

82


 

otherwise excludable from income; or
Not recognized under applicable regulations as eligible for rollover.

 

The Tax Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distribution from a Contract used with a
401(a), 401(k) or 403(a) plan unless certain exceptions, including one or more of the following, have occurred:

You have attained age 59½;
You have become disabled, as defined in the Tax Code;
You have died and the distribution is to your beneficiary;
You have separated from service with the sponsor at or after age 55;
The distribution amount is rolled over into another eligible retirement plan or to an IRA in accordance
with the terms of the Tax Code;
You have separated from service with the plan sponsor and the distribution amount is made in
substantially equal periodic payments (at least annually) over your life or the life expectancy or the joint
lives or joint life expectancies of you and your designated beneficiary;
The distribution is made due to an IRS levy upon your plan;
The withdrawal amount is paid to an alternate payee under a Qualified Domestic Relations Order
(QDRO); or
The distribution is a qualified reservist distribution as defined under the Pension Protection Act of 2006
(401(k) plans only).

 

In addition, the 10% penalty tax does not apply to the amount of a distribution equal to unreimbursed medical
expenses incurred by you during the taxable year that qualify for deduction as specified in the Tax Code. The Tax
Code may provide other exceptions or impose other penalties in other circumstances.

Individual Retirement Annuities. All distributions from an IRA are taxed as received unless either one of
the following is true:

The distribution is rolled over to another IRA or to a plan eligible to receive rollovers as permitted under
the Tax Code; or
You made after-tax contributions to the IRA. In this case, the distribution will be taxed according to rules
detailed in the Tax Code.

 

The Tax Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distribution from an IRA unless certain
exceptions, including one or more of the following, have occurred:

You have attained age 59½;
You have become disabled, as defined in the Tax Code;
You have died and the distribution is to your beneficiary;
The distribution amount is rolled over into another eligible retirement plan or to an IRA in accordance
with the terms of the Tax Code;
The distribution is made due to an IRS levy upon your plan; or
The distribution is a qualified reservist distribution as defined under the Pension Protection Act of 2006.

 

In addition, the 10% penalty tax does not apply to a distribution made from an IRA to pay for health insurance
premiums for certain unemployed individuals, a qualified first-time home purchase, or for higher education
expenses.

Roth IRAs. A qualified distribution from a Roth IRA is not taxed when it is received. A qualified
distribution is a distribution:

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

83


 

Made after the five-taxable year period beginning with the first taxable year for which a contribution was
made to a Roth IRA of the owner; and
Made after you attain age 59½, die, become disabled as defined in the Tax Code, or for a qualified first-
time home purchase.

 

If a distribution is not qualified, generally it will be taxable to the extent of the accumulated earnings. A partial
distribution will first be treated as a return of contributions which is not taxable and then as taxable accumulated
earnings.

The Tax Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distribution from a Roth IRA that is not a
qualified distribution unless certain exceptions have occurred. In general, the exceptions for an IRA listed above
also apply to a distribution from a Roth IRA that is not a qualified distribution or a rollover to a Roth IRA that is not
a qualified rollover contribution. The 10% penalty tax is also waived on a distribution made from a Roth IRA to pay
for health insurance premiums for certain unemployed individuals, used for a qualified first-time home purchase, or
for higher education expenses.

403(b) Plans. Distributions from your contract are subject to the requirements of Code Section 403(b), the
Treasury Regulations, and, if applicable, the Plan under which the assets in your contract are covered. In
accordance with Code Section 403(b) and the Treasury Regulations, we have no responsibility or obligation to make
any distribution (including distributions due to loans, annuity payouts, qualified domestic relations orders, hardship
withdrawals and systematic distributions options) from your contract until we have received instructions or
information from your Employer and/or its designee or, if permitted under Code Section 403(b) and the Treasury
Regulations, you in a form acceptable to us and necessary for us to administer your contract in accordance with
Code Section 403(b) the Treasury Regulations, and, if applicable, the Plan.

All distributions from these plans are taxed as received unless one of the following is true:

The distribution is an eligible rollover distribution and is rolled over to another plan eligible to receive
rollovers or to a traditional IRA in accordance with the Tax Code;
You made after-tax contributions to the plan. In this case, depending upon the type of distribution, the
amount will be taxed according to the rules detailed in the Tax Code; or
The distribution is a qualified health insurance premium of a retired public safety officer as defined in the
Pension Protection Act of 2006.

 

A payment is an eligible rollover distribution unless it is:
 
Part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least one per year) made over the life
expectancy of the participant or the joint life expectancy of the participant and his designated beneficiary
or for a specified period of 10 years or more;
A required minimum distribution under Tax Code section 401(a)(9);
A hardship withdrawal;
Otherwise excludable from income; or
Not recognized under applicable regulations as eligible for rollover.
 
The Tax Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distribution from a contract used with a
403(b) plan, unless certain exceptions have occurred. In general, the exceptions for an IRA listed above also apply
to a distribution from a 403(b) plan, plus in the event you have separated from service with the sponsor at or after
age 55, or you have separated from service with the plan sponsor and the distribution amount is made in
substantially equal periodic payments (at least annually) over your life or the life expectancy or the joint lives or
joint life expectancies of you and your designated beneficiary. In addition, the 10% penalty tax does not apply to
the amount of a distribution equal to unreimbursed medical expenses incurred by you during the taxable year that
qualify for deduction as specified in the Tax Code. The Tax Code may provide other exceptions or impose other
penalty taxes in other circumstances.

Distribution of amounts restricted under Tax Code section 403(b)(11) may only occur upon your death, attainment
of age 59½, severance from employment, disability or financial hardship. Such distributions remain subject to other
applicable restrictions under the Tax Code and the regulations.

Lifetime Required Minimum Distributions (Sections 401(a), 401(k), Roth 401(k), 403(a), 403(b) and
IRAs only).

To avoid certain tax penalties, you and any designated beneficiary must also meet the minimum
distribution requirements imposed by the Tax Code. These rules may dictate the following:

Start date for distributions;
The time period in which all amounts in your account(s) must be distributed; and
Distribution amounts.

 

Start Date and Time Period. Generally, you must begin receiving distributions by April 1 of the
calendar year following the calendar year in which you attain age 70½. We must pay out distributions from the
contract over a period not extending beyond one of the following time periods:

Over your life or the joint lives of you and your designated beneficiary; or
Over a period not greater than your life expectancy or the joint life expectancies of you and your
designated beneficiary.

 

Distribution Amounts. The amount of each required distribution must be calculated in accordance
with Tax Code Section 401(a)(9). The entire interest in the account includes the amount of any outstanding rollover,
transfer, recharacterization, if applicable, and the actuarial present value of other benefits provided under the
account, such as guaranteed death benefits.

50% Excise Tax. If you fail to receive the minimum required distribution for any tax year, a 50%
excise tax may be imposed on the required amount that was not distributed.

Lifetime Required Minimum Distributions are not applicable to Roth IRAs during your lifetime. Further
information regarding required minimum distributions may be found in your contract.

Required Distributions Upon Death (Sections 401(a), 401(k), Roth 401(k), 403(a), 403(b), IRAs and
Roth IRAs Only). Different distribution requirements apply after your death, depending upon if you have been
receiving required minimum distributions. Further information regarding required distributions upon death may be
found in your contract.

If your death occurs on or after you begin receiving minimum distributions under the contract, distributions
generally must be made at least as rapidly as under the method in effect at the time of your death. Tax Code Section
401(a)(9) provides specific rules for calculating the required minimum distributions after your death.

If your death occurs before you begin receiving minimum distributions under the contract, your entire balance must
be distributed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the date of your death. For
example, if you died on September 1, 2010, your entire balance must be distributed to the designated beneficiary
by December 31, 2015. However, if distributions begin by December 31 of the calendar year following the
calendar year of your death, and you have named a designated beneficiary, then payments may be made over either
of the following time frames:

Over the life of the designated beneficiary; or
Over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the designated beneficiary.

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

85


 

Start Dates for Spousal Beneficiaries. If the designated beneficiary is your spouse, distributions
must begin on or before the later of the following:

December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year of your death; or
December 31 of the calendar year in which you would have attained age 70½.

 

No designated beneficiary. If there is no designated beneficiary, the entire interest generally must be
distributed by the end of the calendar containing the fifth anniversary of the contract owner’s death.

Special Rule for IRA Spousal Beneficiaries (IRAs and Roth IRAs Only). In lieu of taking a
distribution under these rules, if the sole designated beneficiary is the contract owner’s surviving spouse, the spousal
beneficiary may elect to treat the contract as his or her own IRA and defer taking a distribution until his or her own
start date. The surviving spouse is deemed to have made such an election if the surviving spouse makes a rollover to
or from the contract or fails to take a distribution within the required time period.

Withholding
Any taxable distributions under the contract are generally subject to withholding. Federal income tax liability
rates vary according to the type of distribution and the recipient’s tax status.

401(a), 401(k), Roth 401(k), 403(a) and 403(b). Generally, distributions from these plans are subject to
mandatory 20% federal income tax withholding. However, mandatory withholding will not be required if you elect
a direct rollover of the distributions to an eligible retirement plan or in the case of certain distributions described in
the Tax Code.

IRAs and Roth IRAs. Generally, you or, if applicable, a designated beneficiary may elect not to have tax
withheld from distributions.

Non-resident Aliens. If you or your designated beneficiary is a non-resident alien, then any withholding is
governed by Tax Code section 1441 based on the individual’s citizenship, the country of domicile and treaty status,
and we may require additional documentation prior to processing any requested distribution.

Assignment and Other Transfers

IRAS and Roth IRAs. The Tax Code does not allow a transfer or assignment of your rights under these
contracts except in limited circumstances. Adverse tax consequences may result if you assign or transfer your
interest in the contract to persons other than your spouse incident to a divorce. Anyone contemplating such an
assignment or transfer should contact a qualified tax adviser regarding the potential tax effects of such a transaction.

Section 403(b) Plans. Adverse tax consequences to the plan and/or to you may result if your beneficial
interest in the contract is assigned or transferred to persons other than:

A plan participant as a means to provide benefit payments;
An alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order in accordance with Tax Code section
414(p); or
The Company as collateral for a loan.

 

Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit

Living Benefits. Except as otherwise noted below, when a withdrawal from a nonqualified contract occurs
under the ING LifePay Plus or ING LifePay Plus rider, the amount received will be treated as ordinary income
subject to tax up to an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the contract value (unreduced by the amount of any
deferred sales charge) immediately before the distribution over the contract owner’s investment in the contract at
that time.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

86


 

Investment in the contract is generally equal to the amount of all contributions to the contract, plus amounts
previously included in your gross income as the result of certain loans, assignments, or gifts, less the aggregate
amount of non-taxable distributions previously made. For nonqualified contracts, the income on the contract for
purposes of calculating the taxable amount of a distribution may be unclear. For example, the living benefits
provided under the ING LifePay Plus or ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, as well as the market value adjustment, could
increase the contract value that applies. Thus, the income on the contract could be higher than the amount of income
that would be determined without regard to such a benefit. As a result, you could have higher amounts of income
than will be reported to you. In addition, payments under any guaranteed payment phase of such riders after the
contract value has been reduced to zero may be subject to the exclusion ratio rules under Tax Code Section 72(b) for
tax purposes.

Enhanced Death Benefits. The Contract offers a death benefit that may exceed the greater of the premium
payments and the contract value. It is possible that the IRS could characterize such a death benefit as other than an
incidental death benefit. In addition, the provision of such benefits may result in currently taxable income to
contract owners, and the presence of the death benefit could affect the amount of required minimum distributions.
Finally, certain charges are imposed with respect to some of the available death benefits. It is possible those charges
(or some portion thereof) could be treated for federal tax purposes as a distribution from the Contract.

Possible Changes in Taxation
Although the likelihood of legislative change and tax reform is uncertain, there is always the possibility that the tax
treatment of the Contracts could change by legislation or other means. It is also possible that any change could be
retroactive (that is, effective before the date of the change). You should consult a tax adviser with respect to
legislative developments and their effect on the Contract.

Same-Sex Marriages
Pursuant to Section 3 of the federal Defense of Marriage Act (“DOMA”), same-sex marriages currently are not
recognized for purposes of federal law. Therefore, the favorable income-deferral options afforded by federal tax law
to an opposite-sex spouse under Code sections 72(s) and 401(a)(9) are currently NOT available to a same-sex
spouse. Same-sex spouses who own or are considering the purchase of annuity products that provide benefits based
upon status as a spouse should consult a qualified tax adviser. In certain states, to the extent that an annuity contract
or certificate offers to spouses other rights or benefits that are not affected by DOMA, same-sex spouses remain
entitled to such rights or benefits to the same extent as any Contract Owner’s spouse.

Taxation of Company
We are taxed as a life insurance company under the Tax Code. The Separate Account is not a separate entity from
us. Therefore, it is not taxed separately as a “regulated investment company,” but is taxed as part of the Company.

We automatically apply investment income and capital gains attributable to the separate account to increase reserves
under the contracts. Because of this, under existing federal tax law we believe that any such income and gains will
not be taxed to the extent that such income and gains are applied to increase reserves under the contracts. In
addition, any foreign tax credits attributable to the separate account will be first used to reduce any income taxes
imposed on the separate account before being used by the Company.

In summary, we do not expect that we will incur any federal income tax liability attributable to the separate account
and we do not intend to make any provision for such taxes. However, changes in federal tax laws and/or their
interpretation may result in our being taxed on income or gains attributable to the separate account. In this case, we
may impose a charge against the separate account (with respect to some or all of the Contracts) to set aside
provisions to pay such taxes. We may deduct this amount from the separate account, including from your account
value invested in the subaccounts.

APPENDIX B

 

The Investment Portfolios
 
During the accumulation phase, you may allocate your premium payments and contract value to any of the
investment portfolios available under this Contract. They are listed in this appendix, plus any Fixed Interest
Allocation. You bear the entire investment risk for amounts you allocate to any investment portfolio, and you may
lose your principal.
 
The investment results of the mutual funds (funds) are likely to differ significantly and there is no assurance that any
of the funds will achieve their respective investment objectives. You should consider the investment objectives, risks
and charges and expenses of the funds carefully before investing. Please refer to the fund prospectuses for this and
additional information.
 
Shares of the funds will rise and fall in value and you could lose money by investing in the funds. Shares of the funds are
not bank deposits and are not guaranteed, endorsed or insured by any financial institution, the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation or any other government agency. Except as noted, all funds are diversified, as defined under the Investment
Company Act of 1940. Fund prospectuses may be obtained free of charge, from our Customer Service Center at the address
and telephone number listed in the prospectus, by accessing the SEC’s web site or by contacting the SEC Public Reference
Room. If you received a summary prospectus for any of the funds available through your contract, you may also obtain a
full prospectus and other fund information free of charge by either accessing the internet address, calling the telephone
number or sending an email request to the contact information shown on the front of the fund's summary prospectus.
 
Certain funds offered under the contracts have investment objectives and policies similar to other funds managed by
the fund’s investment adviser. The investment results of a fund may be higher or lower than those of other funds
managed by the same adviser. There is no assurance and no representation is made that the investment results of any
fund will be comparable to those of another fund managed by the same investment adviser.
 
Certain funds are designated as “Master-Feeder” or “Retirement Funds.” Funds offered in a Master-Feeder structure
(such as the American Funds) or fund of funds structure (such as the Retirement Funds) may have higher fees and
expenses than a fund that invests directly in debt and equity securities. Consult with your investment professional to
determine if the investment portfolios may be suited to your financial needs, investment time horizon and risk
tolerance. You should periodically review these factors to determine if you need to change your investment
strategy.

APPENDIX D

 

Surrender Charge for Excess Withdrawals Example
 
The following assumes you made an initial premium payment of $10,000 and additional premium payments of
$10,000 in each of the second and third contract years, for total premium payments under the Contract of $30,000.
It also assumes a withdrawal at the end of the third contract year of 30% of the contract value of $35,000 and that
Option Package I was selected.
 
In this example, $3,500 (10% of contract value) is the maximum free withdrawal amount that you may withdraw
without a surrender charge. The total withdrawal would be $10,500 ($35,000 x .30). Therefore, $7,000 (10,500 –
3,500) is considered an excess withdrawal of a part of the initial premium payment of $10,000 and would be subject
to a 6% surrender charge of $420 ($7,000 x .06). The amount of the withdrawal paid to you will be $10,500, and in
addition, $420 will be deducted from your contract value.
 
This example does not take into account deduction of any premium taxes.

The Accumulation Rates shown under “Contract” are hypothetical and intended to illustrate various market
conditions. These rates are assumed to be net of all fees and charges except the rider charge. Fees and charges are
not assessed against the MGIB Rollup Rate.
 
How the MGIB Rollup and MGIB Ratchet values are determined:
 
The MGIB Rollup Base is equal to the initial contract value (or initial premium) accumulating at the MGIB Rate of
6% until the MGIB Date (7% for Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased before May 1, 2009). The MGIB Rate is
an annual effective rate. The MGIB Rate for any allocations to the designated Special Fund is 0%.

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

The MGIB Ratchet Base is equal to initial contract value (or initial premium) on the rider date. On each contract
anniversary, the MGIB Ratchet Base is set equal to the greater of: 1) the current contract value; and 2) the MGIB
Ratchet Base on the prior business day.

For example, with a contract accumulation rate of 8% (Example 3), the MGIB Rollup Base and the MGIB Ratchet
Base are determined as follows:

Age   Contract Value   MGIB Rollup     MGIB Ratchet
55 $ 100,000 $100,000 $ 100,000  
56 $ 107,199 $106,000 (=$100,000 * (1+6%)) $ 107,199

For Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased between February 2, 2009 and May 1, 2009, the MGIB Rollup Base

credit deduction, if applicable. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals,
$4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $200 of surrender charges and premium
credit deduction, if applicable. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal, $5,000, then there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $7,000 ($3,000 + $500 + $1,500 + $300 + $1,500 + $200). The
adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum
Annual Withdrawal ($7,000 - $5,000 = $2,000), and the amount of the current gross withdrawal ($1,500 + 200 =
$1,700. Because total gross withdrawals within the contract year prior to this withdrawal ($5,300) had already
exceeded the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the entire gross withdrawal is considered an excess withdrawal.

If the Contract Value before this withdrawal is $50,000, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by
3.40% ($1,700 / $50,000) to $4,830 ((1 - 3.40%) * $5,000).

Illustration 2: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges and premium credit
deduction, if applicable. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges and premium credit
deduction, if applicable. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500,
do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges and premium credit
deduction, if applicable. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,
$5,000, there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. However, because only $4,500 in gross
withdrawals was taken during the contract year prior to this withdrawal, $500 of the $1,500 gross withdrawal is not
considered excess.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500). The adjustment is the
lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,
$1,000, and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $1,500.

If the Contract Value before this withdrawal is $50,000, and the Contract Value is $49,500 after the part of the gross
withdrawal that was within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is
reduced by 2.02% ($1,000 / $49,500) to $4,899 ((1 - 2.02%) * $5,000).

Illustration 3: A withdrawal exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount but does not exceed the
Additional Withdrawal Amount.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. The Required Minimum Distribution for the current calendar
year applicable to this contract is determined to be $6,000. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the
excess of this amount above the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000).

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges and premium credit
deduction, if applicable. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges and premium credit
deduction, if applicable. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500,
do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges and premium credit
deduction, if applicable. Total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000,
however, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not adjusted until the Additional Withdrawal Amount is exhausted.
The amount by which total net withdrawals taken exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 -
$5,000), is the same as the Additional Withdrawal Amount, so no adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal
is made. If total net withdrawals taken had exceeded the sum of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the
Additional Withdrawal Amount, then an adjustment would be made to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Illustration 4: The Additional Withdrawal Amount at the end of the calendar year before it is withdrawn.

Assume the most recent contract date was July 1, 2007 and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. Also
assume RMDs, applicable to this contract, are $6,000 and $5,000 for 2008 and 2009 calendar years respectively.

Between July 1, 2007 and December 31, 2007, a withdrawal of $5,000 is taken which exhausts the Maximum
Annual Withdrawal.

On January 1, 2008, the Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of the 2008 RMD above the
existing Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000. Note that the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has
been exhausted however is still used to calculate the Additional Withdrawal Amount.

The owner now has until December 31, 2009 to take the newly calculated Additional Withdrawal Amount of
$1,000. The owner decides not to take the Additional Withdrawal Amount of $1,000 in 2008.

On January 1, 2009, the Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of the 2009 RMD above the
existing Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $0 ($5,000 - $5,000). Note that the Additional Withdrawal Amount of
$1,000 from the 2008 calendar year carries over into the 2009 calendar year and is available for withdrawal.

Illustration 5: The Reset Occurs.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000 and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage is 5%.

One year after the first withdrawal is taken, the contract value has increased to $120,000, and the Reset occurs. The
Maximum Annual Withdrawal is now $6,000 ($120,000 * 5%).

One year after the Reset, the contract value has increased further to $130,000. The Reset occurs again, and the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal is now $6,500 ($130,000 * 5%).

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

F2


 

If the contract value has fallen to $100,000 on the next contract anniversary (quarterly contract anniversary if the
rider was purchased before February 2, 2009), the Reset will not occur and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal would
not be recalculated.

Illustration 6: The Reset from Guaranteed Withdrawal Status into Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

Assume the first withdrawal is taken in the first contract year when the Annuitant is age 56, thus beginning the
Withdrawal Phase in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. Also assume that at the time of the first withdrawal, the
LifePay Plus Base is $100,000 before the withdrawal and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000 ($100,000 *
5%).

Withdrawals are also taken from the contract in an amount equal to the MAW at the beginning of each of the next
three contract years, each withdrawal resulting in a dollar for dollar reduction to the LifePay Plus Base.

After the withdrawal is taken at the beginning of the fourth contract year, the Annuitant is now age 59 ½, the MAW
is still $5,000, and the LifePay Plus Base has been reduced to $80,000.

On the quarterly contract anniversary following the date the Annuitant reaches age 59 ½, the rider will enter
Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status and the MAW will be recalculated to equal the appropriate MAW% times
the current MGWB Base, or $4,000 ($80,000 * 5%).

Illustration 7: A withdrawal exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount and the Additional
Withdrawal Amount.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. The Required Minimum Distribution for the current calendar
year applicable to this contract is determined to be $6,000. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the
excess of this amount above the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000).

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum
Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum
Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. Total net
withdrawals taken, $8,000, exceed the sum of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional Withdrawal
Amount, $6,000, and there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $8,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $3,500). The adjustment is the
lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the sum of the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal and the Additional Withdrawal Amount ($8,000 - $6,000 = $2,000), and the amount of the current gross
withdrawal ($3,500).

If the Contract Value before this withdrawal is $50,000, and the Contract Value is $48,500 after the part of the gross
withdrawal that was within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is
reduced by 4.12% ($2,000 / $48,500) to $4,794 ((1 - 4.12%) * $5,000).

Illustration 8: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum

Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum
Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. Because total net
withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, there is an adjustment to the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal. However, because only $4,500 in gross withdrawals was taken during the contract
year prior to this withdrawal, $500 of the $1,500 gross withdrawal is not considered excess.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500). The adjustment is the lesser
of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000,
and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $1,500.

If the Contract Value after the part of the gross withdrawal that was within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $500,
is $49,500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 2.02% ($1,000 / $49,500) to $4,899 ((1 - 2.02%)
* $5,000).

Another withdrawal is taken during that same contract year in the amount of $400 net, with $100 of surrender
charges. Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,500 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500 + $500). The
adjustment to the MAW is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,500, and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $500.

If the Contract Value before this withdrawal is $48,500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by
1.03% ($500 / $48,500) to $4,849 ((1 – 1.03%) * $4,899).

APPENDIX G

 

Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing

 

The following examples are designed to assist you in understanding how Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic
Rebalancing works. The examples assume that there are no investment earnings or losses.

I. Subsequent Payments

A. Assume that on Day 1, an owner deposits an initial payment of $100,000, which is allocated 100% to Accepted
Funds. No Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing would occur, because this allocation meets the required
investment option allocation.

B. Assume that on Day 2, the owner deposits an additional payment of $500,000, bringing the total contract value
to $600,000, and allocates this deposit 100% to Other Funds. Because the percentage allocated to the Fixed
Allocations Funds (0%) is less than 30% of the total amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and the Other
Funds, we will automatically reallocate $150,000 from the amount allocated to the Other Funds (30% of the
$500,000 allocated to the Other Funds) to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Your ending allocations will be $100,000 to
Accepted Funds, $150,000 to the Fixed Allocation Funds, and $350,000 to Other Funds.

II. Partial Withdrawals

A. Assume that on Day 1, an owner deposits an initial payment of $100,000, which is allocated 65% to Accepted
Funds ($65,000), 30% to the Fixed Allocation Funds ($30,000), and 5% to Other Funds ($5,000). No Fixed
Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing would occur, because this allocation meets the required investment option
allocation.

B. Assume that on Day 2, the owner requests a partial withdrawal of $29,000 from the Fixed Allocation Funds.
Because the remaining amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds ($1,000) is less than 30% of the total amount
allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and the Other Funds, we will automatically reallocate $800 from the Other
Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds, so that the amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds ($1,800) is 30% of
the total amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds ($6,000).

APPENDIX H

 

ING LifePay and ING Joint LifePay

 

(Available for Contracts issued on and after September 4, 2007 through January 28, 2008.)

ING LifePay Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (ING LifePay) Rider. The ING LifePay rider
generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of
annual withdrawals from the Contract for the life of the annuitant, even if these withdrawals deplete your Contract
value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are concerned that you may outlive your income.

Purchase. In order to elect the ING LifePay rider, the annuitant must be the owner or one of the owners, unless
the owner is a non-natural owner. Joint annuitants are not allowed. The minimum issue age is 55 and the maximum
issue age is 80. The issue age is the age of the owner (or the annuitant if there are joint owners or the owner is non-
natural) on the Contract anniversary on which the rider is effective. Some broker-dealers may not offer the ING
LifePay rider, or may limit the maximum issue age to ages younger than age 80, but in no event lower than age 55.
We reserve the right to change the minimum or maximum issue ages on a nondiscriminatory basis. The ING
LifePay rider is available for Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 that do not already have a living
benefit rider. The ING LifePay rider will not be issued if the initial allocation to investment options is not in
accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below. Also, the
ING LifePay rider will not be issued if any contract value is allocated to a Fixed Interest Division, nor may you
subsequently allocate contract value to a Fixed Interest Division. The Company in its discretion may allow the rider
to be elected during the 30-day period preceding a Contract anniversary. Such election must be received in good
order, including compliance with the investment restrictions described below. The rider will be effective as of that
Contract anniversary.

Rider Date. The rider date is the date the ING LifePay rider becomes effective. If you purchase the ING
LifePay rider when the Contract is issued, the rider date is also the Contract date.

Charge. The charge for the ING LifePay rider is as follows:

Current Annual Charge Maximum Annual Charge if Reset Option
(Charge Deducted Quarterly) Elected
0.50% of the contract value 1.20% of the contract value

 

We deduct the quarterly charge in arrears based on the contract date (contract year versus calendar year). In
arrears means the first charge is deducted at the end of the first quarter from the contract date. If the rider is
added after contract issue, the charges will still be deducted on quarterly contract anniversaries, but the first
charge will be pro-rated based on what is owed at the time the rider is added through the contract quarter end.
Similarly, the charge is pro-rated based on what is owed at the time the rider is terminated. Charges are
deducted during the period starting on the rider date and up to your rider’s Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit
Status. Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs if your contract value is reduced to zero and other
conditions are met. We may increase the charge for this rider if you elect the reset option after your first five
contract years, but subject to the maximum annual charge. For more information about how this rider works,
including when Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status begins, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING
LifePay Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Rider.”
 
No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING LifePay rider, you may not cancel it unless you: a) cancel the
Contract during the Contract’s free look period; b) surrender the Contract; c) begin the income phase and start
receiving annuity payments; or d) otherwise terminate the Contract pursuant to its terms. These events
automatically cancel the ING LifePay rider.

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H1


 

Termination. The ING LifePay rider is a “living benefit” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are
intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The
optional rider automatically terminates if you:
 
1 ) annuitize or terminate your Contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender
    your Contract, or begin receiving annuity payments under the ING LifePay rider; or
 
2 ) die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of
    annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue
    the Contract.

 

The ING LifePay rider will also terminate if there is a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal
beneficiary continuation on your death). Other circumstances that may cause the ING LifePay rider to
terminate automatically are discussed below.

How the ING LifePay Rider Works. The ING LifePay rider has both phases and statuses. Through the
lifetime of the ING LifePay rider, you will be in one of two phases: the Growth Phase or the Withdrawal Phase. As
detailed below, the Growth Phase begins on the effective date of the rider and ends as of the business day before you
take your first withdrawal, or before you begin to receive annuity payments. The Growth Phase is subject to the
latest date for annuitization allowed under your Contract. See “The Income Phase – Restrictions on Start Dates and
the Duration of Payments.” During the Growth Phase, no benefits under the ING LifePay rider are being paid out;
rather, during the Growth Phase, premiums and investment growth under your Contract continue to accumulate.
The Withdrawal Phase follows the Growth Phase and begins once you take your first withdrawal or annuity
payment, whichever occurs first. During the Withdrawal Phase, you may withdraw guaranteed amounts from your
Contract, subject to the terms and conditions noted in this section.

During the life of the rider, it will also be treated as in one of two statuses: Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status
or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Together, these statuses operate to fulfill the rider’s withdrawal
guarantee. Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins on the date the rider is issued and continues until certain
circumstances occur as noted in “Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status,” below. Lifetime Automatic Periodic
Benefit Status is a status that only begins if your contract value is depleted to zero for reasons other than
withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, as discussed more thoroughly below. In Lifetime
Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are no longer entitled to make withdrawals. Instead, under the ING LifePay
rider, you will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
If your contract value is depleted because of withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, then the
Contract and the ING LifePay rider will terminate without value. While all riders begin in Lifetime Guaranteed
Withdrawal Status, not all riders will enter Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status.

Benefits paid under the ING LifePay rider require the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The ING
LifePay Base (referred to as the “MGWB Base” in the Contract) is used to determine the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal and is calculated as follows:

1 ) If you purchased the ING LifePay rider on the Contract date, the initial ING LifePay Base is equal to
    the initial premium, plus premium credits.
 
2 ) If you purchased the ING LifePay rider after the Contract date, the initial ING LifePay Base is equal to
    the Contract value on the effective date of the rider.
 
3 ) The initial ING LifePay Base is increased dollar-for-dollar by any premiums received during the
    Growth Phase and premium credits, if applicable (“eligible premiums”). The ING LifePay Base is also
    increased to equal the Contract value if the Contract value is greater than the current ING LifePay
    Base, on each Contract quarterly anniversary after the effective date of the rider and during the Growth
    Phase. The ING LifePay Base has no additional impact on the calculation of annuity payments or
    withdrawal benefits.

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H2


 

Currently, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are not eligible premiums for purposes of
determining the ING LifePay Base or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal; however, we reserve the right to treat such
premiums as eligible premiums at our discretion, in a nondiscriminatory manner. Premiums received during the
Withdrawal Phase do increase the Contract value used to determine the reset Maximum Annual Withdrawal if you
choose to reset the ING LifePay rider (see “ING LifePay Reset Option,” below). We reserve the right to discontinue
allowing premium payments during the Withdrawal Phase.

Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the effective date of the rider and continues
until the earliest of:

1 ) the date annuity payments begin (see “The Income Phase”);
2 ) reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
3 ) reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual
    Withdrawal;
4 ) the surrender of the Contract; or
5 ) the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners, or the annuitant, in the case of a
    custodial IRA), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

 

The rider’s status changes to Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status in the event contract value is reduced to
zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including due to poor
market performance. In Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, other than the payments as provided under the
ING LifePay rider, the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits). If contract value is
reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Contract and rider will
terminate without value. For more information about the effect of a withdrawal reducing the contract value to zero,
please see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below. As described below, certain features of the ING
LifePay rider may differ depending on whether you are in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is determined
on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins. It equals a percentage of the greater of 1) the Contract value and 2)
the ING LifePay Base as of the last day of the Growth Phase. The first withdrawal after the effective date of the
rider (which causes the end of the Growth Phase) is treated as occurring on the first day of the Withdrawal
Phase, immediately after calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal
percentage, which varies by age of the annuitant on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins, is as follows:

    Maximum Annual  
Annuitant Age   Withdrawal Percentage  
55-64   4 %
65-75   5 %
76-80   6 %
81 + 7 %

 

Once determined, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage never changes for the Contract, except as
provided for under spousal continuation. See “Continuation After Death – Spouse,” below. This is important to
keep in mind in deciding when to take your first withdrawal because the younger you are at that time, the lower
the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage.

If the ING LifePay rider is in the Growth Phase, and the annuity commencement date is reached, the rider will
enter the Withdrawal Phase and annuity payments will begin. In lieu of the annuity options under the Contract,
you may elect a life only annuity option under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the
Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H3


 

Whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is subject to change depends on the extent of your withdrawals.
The amount of your withdrawal or withdrawals in a contract year that, when added together, do not exceed the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal do not reduce the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. However, if the total amount
of your withdrawals in any Contract year exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, then the Maximum
Annual Withdrawal will be reduced in the same proportion as the contract value is reduced by the amount of the
excess withdrawal.

For this purpose, an excess withdrawal is the lesser of the amount by which your total withdrawals in a Contract
year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the amount of your present request for a withdrawal. The
amount of any applicable premium credit deduction (recapture) or surrender charges are not included in
determining whether the total amount of your withdrawals in a Contract year exceeds the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal and triggers a pro-rata reduction. However, in the event that the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is
to be subject to a pro-rata reduction because of an excess withdrawal, the amount by which the Maximum
Annual Withdrawal will be reduced will include any premium credit deduction and surrender charges. See
Illustrations 1 and 2 below for examples of this concept.

Required Minimum Distributions. Withdrawals taken from the Contract to satisfy the Required
Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code are considered withdrawals for purposes of the ING LifePay rider
and will begin the Withdrawal Phase if the Withdrawal Phase has not already started. Any such withdrawal,
which exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for a specific Contract year, will not be deemed excess
withdrawals in that Contract year for purposes of the ING LifePay rider, subject to the following rules:

1 ) If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January
    31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that
    date, an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum
    Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
 
2 ) Once you have taken the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year, the dollar
    amount of any additional withdrawals will count against and reduce the Additional Withdrawal
    Amount without being deemed an excess withdrawal.
 
3 ) In the event of any withdrawals that exceed both the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional
    Withdrawal Amount, the dollar amount of these withdrawals will be deemed excess withdrawals that
    cause the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be reduced on a pro-rata basis, as described above.
 
4 ) The Additional Withdrawal Amount is available on a calendar year basis and recalculated every
    January, reset to equal that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year that
    exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date. Any unused amount of the Additional
    Withdrawal Amount does not carry over into the next calendar year.
 
5 ) The ING LifePay rider cannot accommodate any grace periods allowed for Required Minimum
    Distributions pursuant to the Tax Code.
 
6 ) The Additional Withdrawal Amount does not change in the event you choose to reset the Maximum
    Annual Withdrawal Amount. See “ING LifePay Reset Option” below. The Additional Withdrawal
    Amount is only subject to change when the Additional Withdrawal Amount is reset as described
    above.

 

See Illustrations 3 and 4 below.

Investment Advisory Fees. Withdrawals taken pursuant to a program established by the owner for the
payment of investment advisory fees to a named third party investment adviser for advice on management of
the Contract’s values will not cause the Withdrawal Phase to begin. During the Growth Phase, such
withdrawals reduce the ING LifePay Base in the same proportion as contract value is reduced by the amount of
these fees. During the Withdrawal Phase, these withdrawals are treated as any other withdrawal.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the Contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in
excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Contract and the rider will terminate without value due to the
pro-rata reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above.

If the Contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal while the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the rider will enter Lifetime
Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are no longer entitled to make withdrawals. Instead, under the ING
LifePay rider, you will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal.

When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1 ) Other than as provided under the ING LifePay rider, the Contract will provide no further benefits
    (including death benefits);
2 ) no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3 ) any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

 

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount
that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the annuitant at
which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic
Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the annuitant’s death.

If when the ING LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status your net withdrawals to date
are less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you the difference
immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full Contract year following the date
the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Under a systematic
withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be
withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at
the time the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals
under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in
equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual
Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments
were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the
payments will be made at the end of the half-Contract year or Contract year, as applicable.

ING LifePay Reset Option. Beginning one year after the Withdrawal Phase begins, you may choose to
reset the Maximum Annual Withdrawal when the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, as recalculated, would be
greater than your current Maximum Annual Withdrawal, based on the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal
percentage times Contract value. You must elect to reset by a request in a form satisfactory to us. On the date
the request is received (the “Reset Effective Date”), the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will increase to be equal
to the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage times the Contract value on the Reset Effective
Date. (For your Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage, see “Determination of the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal” above.) The reset option is only available when the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal
Status. We reserve the right to limit resets to the contract anniversary.

After exercising the reset option, you must wait one year before electing to reset again. We will not accept a
request to reset if the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal on the date the request is received would be less than
your current Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

If the reset option is exercised, the charge for the ING LifePay rider will be equal to the charge then in effect for
a newly purchased rider but will not exceed the maximum annual charge of 1.20%. However, we guarantee that
the rider charge will not increase for resets exercised within the first five contract years. See Illustration 4
below.

Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING LifePay rider is in effect, there are limits on the portfolios to
which your Contract value may be allocated. Contract value allocated to portfolios other than Accepted Funds will
be rebalanced so as to maintain at least 20% of such Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds. See “Fixed
Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below. We have these restrictions to mitigate the insurance risk inherent
in our guarantees with this rider. We require this allocation regardless of your investment instructions to the
Contract. The timing of when and how we apply these restrictions is discussed further below.

Accepted Funds. Currently, the Accepted Funds are:  
 
BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund ING Retirement Conservative Portfolio
ING American Funds Asset Allocation Portfolio ING Retirement Growth Portfolio
ING American Funds World Allocation Portfolio ING Retirement Moderate Growth Portfolio
ING Invesco Van Kampen Equity and Income ING Retirement Moderate Portfolio
Portfolio  
ING Liquid Assets Portfolio ING T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio
ING MFS Total Return Portfolio Fixed Interest Allocation
ING Oppenheimer Active Allocation Portfolio  
 
If this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009, the following are additional Accepted Funds:
 
ING Franklin Templeton Founding Strategy Portfolio  
ING WisdomTreeSM Global High-Yielding Equity Index Portfolio
 
We may change these designations at any time upon 30 days notice to you. If a change is made, the change
will apply to Contract value allocated to such portfolios after the date of the change.
 
Fixed Allocation Funds. Currently, the Fixed Allocation Funds are:
 
ING American Funds Bond Portfolio ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio
ING BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio ING U.S. Bond Index Portfolio
ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio  

 

You may allocate contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING
Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds
Automatic Rebalancing.

Other Funds. All portfolios available under the Contract other than the Accepted Funds or Fixed
Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is
less than 20% of the total Contract value allocated to both the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any
ING LifePay Rebalancing Date, we will automatically rebalance the Contract value allocated to the Fixed
Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that 20% of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds.
Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done
on a pro-rata basis from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds and will be the last transaction
processed on that date. The ING LifePay Rebalancing Dates occur on each Contract anniversary and after the
following transactions:

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H6


 

1 ) receipt of additional premiums;
2 ) transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or
    specifically directed by you;
3 ) withdrawals from a Fixed Allocation Fund or Other Fund.

 

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the
Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of
compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic
Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See
“Appendix G – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.” You will be notified that Fixed
Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred, along with your new allocations by a confirmation
statement that will be mailed to you after Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred.

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the
Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in them. See “Appendix G – Examples
of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING LifePay
rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions,
including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING LifePay rider
if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay rider and charges terminate on the earlier of:

1 ) if the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal status, the date of receipt of due proof of death
    (“claim date”) of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner) or the annuitant if there
    is a non-natural owner; or
 
2 ) the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit status.

 

Under 1), above, the rider terminates on the death of the first owner, even if the owner is not the annuitant.
Thus, you should not purchase this rider with multiple owners, unless the owners are spouses. Under 2),
above, we will continue to pay the periodic payments that the owner was receiving under the LifePay rider to
the annuitant. No other death benefit is payable in this situation.

Continuation After Death – Spouse. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the
Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue,
provided the following conditions are met:

1 ) The spouse is at least 55 years old on the date the Contract is continued; and
2 ) The spouse becomes the annuitant and sole owner.

 

If the rider is in the Growth Phase at the time of spousal continuation:
1 ) The rider will continue in the Growth Phase;
2 ) On the date the rider is continued, the ING LifePay Base will be reset to equal the greater of the
    ING LifePay Base and the then current Contract value;
3 ) The ING LifePay charges will restart and be the same as were in effect prior to the claim date; and
4 ) The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage will be determined as of the date of the first
withdrawal, whenever it occurs, and will be based on the spouse’s age on that date.

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H7


 

If the rider is in the Withdrawal Phase at the time of spousal continuation:
 
1 ) The rider will continue in the Withdrawal Phase.
 
2 ) On the Contract anniversary following the date the rider is continued:
 
    (a) If the surviving spouse was not the annuitant before the owner’s death, the Maximum Annual
      Withdrawal is recalculated by multiplying the Contract value on that Contract anniversary by
      the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage based on the surviving spouse’s age on that
      Contract anniversary. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is considered to be zero until this
      recalculation, so withdrawals pursuant to the rider cannot be utilized. Withdrawals are
      permitted pursuant to the other provisions of the Contract. In other words, withdrawals
      during this time will not be subject to the guarantees of this rider. Withdrawals causing the
      Contract value to fall to zero will terminate the Contract and the rider.
 
    (b) If the surviving spouse was the annuitant before the owner’s death, the Maximum Annual
      Withdrawal is recalculated as the greater of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on the claim
      date (adjusted for excess withdrawals thereafter) and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal
      resulting from multiplying the Contract value on that Contract anniversary by the Maximum
      Annual Withdrawal percentage. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal does not go to zero on
      the claim date, which is the date of receipt of due proof of death, and withdrawals may
      continue under the rider provisions.

 

3 ) The rider charges will restart on the Contract anniversary following the date the rider is continued
    and will be the same as were in effect prior to the claim date.

 

Effect of ING LifePay Rider on Death Benefit. If you die before Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit
Status begins under the ING LifePay rider, the death benefit is payable, but the rider terminates. However, if
the beneficiary is the owner’s spouse, and the spouse elects to continue the Contract, the death benefit is not
payable until the spouse’s death. Thus, you should not purchase this rider with multiple owners, unless the
owners are spouses. See “Death of Owner or Annuitant” and “Continuation After Death – Spouse” above for
further information.
 
While in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if the owner who is not the annuitant dies, we will
continue to pay the periodic payments that the owner was receiving under the ING LifePay rider until the death
of the annuitant. While in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if an owner who is also the annuitant
dies, the periodic payments will stop. No other death benefit is payable.
 
Change of Owner or Annuitant. Other than as provided above under “Continuation After Death- Spouse,”
you may not change the annuitant. The rider and rider charges will terminate upon change of owner, including
adding an additional owner, except for the following ownership changes:
 
1 ) spousal continuation as described above;
 
2 ) change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;
 
3 ) change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual;
 
4 ) change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
 
5 ) collateral assignments;
 
6 ) change in trust as owner where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same
    individual;

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

7 ) change of owner from an individual to a trust where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust
    are the same individual; and
 
8 ) change of owner from a trust to an individual where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust
    are the same individual.

 

Surrender Charges. If you elect the ING LifePay rider, the amount of your withdrawals will be subject to
surrender charges and any recapture of credits if they exceed the free withdrawal amount. However, once your
Contract value is zero, the periodic payments under the ING LifePay rider are not subject to surrender charges, nor
will these amounts be subject to any other charges under the Contract. See Appendix H for examples.

Loans. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the ING LifePay rider.

Taxation. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING LifePay rider,
see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

ING Joint LifePay Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (ING Joint LifePay) Rider. The ING Joint
LifePay rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum
level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of both you and your spouse, even if these
withdrawals deplete your contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are married and are
concerned that you and your spouse may outlive your income.

Purchase. The ING Joint LifePay rider is only available for purchase by individuals who are married at the
time of purchase and eligible to elect spousal continuation (as defined by the Tax Code) when the death benefit
becomes payable. We refer to these individuals as spouses. Certain ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary
designations are required in order to purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider. See “Ownership, Annuitant and
Beneficiary Requirements,” below.

The minimum issue age is 55 and the maximum issue age is 80. Both spouses must meet these issue age
requirements on the contract anniversary on which the ING Joint LifePay rider is effective. The issue age is the age
of the owners on the Contract anniversary on which the rider is effective. Some broker dealers may not offer the
ING Joint LifePay rider, or may limit the maximum issue age to ages younger than age 80, but in no event lower
than age 55. We reserve the right to change the minimum or maximum issue ages on a nondiscriminatory basis.
The ING Joint LifePay rider is available for Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 that do not already
have a living benefit rider. The ING Joint LifePay rider will not be issued if the initial allocation to investment
options is not in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,”
below. Also, the ING Joint LifePay rider will not be issued if any contract value is allocated to a Fixed Interest
Division, nor may you subsequently allocate contract value to a Fixed Interest Division. The Company in its
discretion may allow the ING Joint LifePay rider to be elected during the 30-day period preceding a contract
anniversary. Such election must be received in good order, including owner, annuitant, and beneficiary designations
and compliance with the investment restrictions described below. The ING Joint LifePay rider will be effective as
of that contract anniversary.

Ownership, Annuitant and Beneficiary Designation Requirements. Certain ownership, annuitant and
beneficiary designations are required in order to purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider. These designations depend
upon whether the contract is issued as a nonqualified contract, an IRA or a custodial IRA. In all cases, the
ownership, annuitant and beneficiary designations must allow for the surviving spouse to continue the contract when
the death benefit becomes payable, as provided by the Tax Code. Non-natural, custodial owners are only allowed
with IRAs (“custodial IRAs”). Joint annuitants are not allowed. The necessary ownership, annuitant and/or
beneficiary designations are described below. Applications that do not meet the requirements below will be
rejected. We reserve the right to verify the date of birth and social security number of both spouses.

Nonqualified Contracts. For a jointly owned contract, the owners must be spouses, and the annuitant
must be one of the owners. For a contract with only one owner, the owner’s spouse must be the sole primary
beneficiary, and the annuitant must be one of the spouses.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H9


 

IRAs. There may only be one owner, who must also be the annuitant. The owner’s spouse must be the
sole primary beneficiary.

Custodial IRAs. While we do not maintain individual owner and beneficiary designations for IRAs held
by an outside custodian, the ownership and beneficiary designations with the custodian must comply with the
requirements listed in “IRAs” above. The annuitant must be the same as the beneficial owner of the custodial
IRA. We require the custodian to provide us the name and date of birth of both the owner and the owner’s
spouse.

Rider Date. The ING Joint LifePay rider date is the date the ING Joint LifePay rider becomes effective. If you
purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider when the contract is issued, the ING Joint LifePay rider date is also the
contract date.

Charge. The charge for the ING Joint LifePay rider is as follows:

Current Annual Charge Maximum Annual Charge if Reset Option
(Charge Deducted Quarterly) Elected
0.75% of the contract value 1.50% of contract value

 

We deduct the quarterly charge in arrears based on the contract date (contract year versus calendar year). In
arrears means the first charge is deducted at the end of the first quarter from the contract date. If the rider is
added after contract issue, the charges will still be deducted on quarterly contract anniversaries, but the first
charge will be pro-rated based on what is owed at the time the rider is added through the contract quarter end.
Similarly, the charge is pro-rated based on what is owed at the time the rider is terminated. Charges are
deducted during the period starting on the rider date and up to your rider’s Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit
Status. Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs if your contract value is reduced to zero and other
conditions are met. We may increase the charge for this rider if you elect the reset option after your first five
contract years, but subject to the maximum annual charge. For more information about how this rider works,
including when Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status begins, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING
Joint LifePay Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Rider.” If you surrender or annuitize your Contract,
the charge is pro-rated based on what is owed at the time. We reserve the right to change the charge for this
rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. If changed, the new charge will only apply to riders issued after
this change.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider, you may not cancel it unless you: a) cancel
the contract during the contract’s free look period; b) surrender the contract; c) begin the income phase and start
receiving annuity payments; or d) otherwise terminate the contract pursuant to its terms. These events
automatically cancel the ING Joint LifePay rider.

Termination. The ING Joint LifePay rider is a “living benefit” which means the guaranteed benefits offered
are intended to be available to you and your spouse while you are living and while your contract is in the
accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you:

1 ) annuitize or terminate your contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender
    your Contract, or begin receiving annuity payments in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay
    rider;
 
2 ) die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die in the case of joint owners, or death of annuitant
    if the contract is a custodial IRA), unless your spouse elects to continue the contract (and your spouse
    is active for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay rider): or
 
3 ) change the owner of the contract (other than a spousal continuation by an active spouse).

 

See “Change of Owner or Annuitant,” below. Other circumstances that may cause the ING Joint LifePay rider
to terminate automatically are discussed below.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H10


 

Active Status. Once the ING Joint LifePay rider has been issued, a spouse must remain in “active” status in
order to exercise rights and receive the benefits of the ING Joint LifePay rider after the first spouse’s death by
electing spousal continuation. In general, changes to the ownership, annuitant, and/or beneficiary designation
requirements noted above will result in one spouse being designated as “inactive.” Inactive spouses are not eligible
to continue the benefits of the ING Joint LifePay rider after the death of the other spouse. Once designated
“inactive,” a spouse may not regain active status under the ING Joint LifePay rider. Specific situations that will
result in a spouse’s designation as “inactive” include the following:

1 ) For nonqualified contracts where the spouses are joint owners, the removal of a joint owner (if that
    spouse does not automatically become sole primary beneficiary pursuant to the terms of the contract),
    or the change of one joint owner to a person other than an active spouse.
 
2 ) For nonqualified contracts where one spouse is the owner and the other spouse is the sole primary
    beneficiary, as well as for IRA contracts (including custodial IRAs), the addition of a joint owner who
    is not also an active spouse or any change of beneficiary (including the addition of primary
    beneficiaries).
 
3 ) In the event of the death of one spouse (in which case the deceased spouse becomes inactive).

 

An owner may also request that one spouse be treated as inactive. In the case of joint-owned contracts, both
contract owners must agree to such a request. An inactive spouse is not eligible to exercise any rights or receive any
benefits under the ING Joint LifePay rider. However, all charges for the ING Joint LifePay rider will continue
to apply, even if one spouse becomes inactive, regardless of the reason. You should make sure you
understand the impact of beneficiary and owner changes on the ING Joint LifePay rider prior to requesting
any such changes.

A divorce will terminate the ability of an ex-spouse to continue the contract. See “Divorce,” below.

How the ING Joint LifePay Rider Works. The ING Joint LifePay rider has both statuses and phases.
Through the lifetime of the ING Joint LifePay rider, you will be in one of two phases: the Growth Phase or the
Withdrawal Phase. As detailed below, the Growth Phase begins on the effective date of the rider and ends as of the
business day before you take your first withdrawal, or before you begin to receive annuity payments. The Growth
Phase is subject to the latest date for annuitization allowed under your Contract. See “The Income Phase –
Restrictions on Start Dates and the Duration of Payments.” During the Growth Phase, no benefits under the ING
Joint LifePay rider are being paid out; rather, during the Growth Phase, premiums and investment growth under your
Contract continue to accumulate. The Withdrawal Phase follows the Growth Phase and begins once you take your
first withdrawal or annuity payment, whichever occurs first. During the Withdrawal Phase, you may withdraw
guaranteed amounts from your Contract, subject to the terms and conditions noted in this section.

During the life of the rider, it will also be treated as in one of two statuses: Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status
or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Together, these statuses operate to fulfill the rider’s withdrawal
guarantee. Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins on the date the rider is issued and continues until certain
circumstances occur as noted in “Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status,” below. Lifetime Automatic Periodic
Benefit Status is a status that only begins if your contract value is depleted to zero for reasons other than
withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, as discussed more thoroughly below. In Lifetime
Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are no longer entitled to make withdrawals. Instead, under the ING Joint
LifePay rider, you will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal. If your contract value is depleted because of withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal, then the Contract and the ING Joint LifePay rider will terminate without value. While all riders begin
in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, not all riders will enter Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status.

Benefits paid under the ING Joint LifePay rider require the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The
ING Joint LifePay Base (referred to as the “MGWB Base” in the contract) is used to determine the Maximum
Annual Withdrawal and is calculated as follows:

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H11


 

1 ) If you purchased the ING Joint LifePay rider on the contract date, the initial ING Joint LifePay Base is
    equal to the initial premium, plus premium credits.
 
2 ) If you purchased the ING Joint LifePay rider after the contract date, the initial ING Joint LifePay Base
    is equal to the contract value on the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay rider.
 
3 ) The initial ING Joint LifePay Base is increased dollar-for-dollar by any premiums received during the
    Growth Phase and premium credits, if applicable (“eligible premiums”). The ING Joint LifePay Base
    is also increased to equal the contract value if the contract value is greater than the current ING Joint
    LifePay Base, valued on each quarterly contract anniversary after the effective date of the ING Joint
    LifePay rider during the Growth Phase. The ING Joint LifePay Base has no additional impact on the
    calculation of annuity payments or withdrawal benefits.

 

Currently, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are not eligible premiums for purposes of
determining the ING Joint LifePay Base or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal; however, we reserve the right to treat
such premiums as eligible premiums at our discretion, in a nondiscriminatory manner. Premiums received during
the Withdrawal Phase do increase the contract value used to determine the reset Maximum Annual Withdrawal if
you choose to reset the ING Joint LifePay rider (see “ING Joint LifePay Reset Option,” below). We reserve the
right to discontinue allowing premium payments during the Withdrawal Phase.

Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the effective date of the rider and continues
until the earliest of:

1 ) the date annuity payments begin (see “The Income Phase”);
2 ) reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
3 ) reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual
    Withdrawal;
4 ) the surrender of the Contract; or
5 ) the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners, or the annuitant, in the case of a
    custodial IRA), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

 

The rider’s status changes to Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status in the event contract value is reduced to
zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including due to poor
market performance. In Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, other than payments as provided under the
ING Joint LifePay rider the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits). If contract value is
reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount, the Contract and rider will
terminate without value. For more information about the effect of a withdrawal reducing the contract value to zero,
please see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below. As described below, certain features of the ING
Joint LifePay rider may differ depending on whether you are in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H12


 

Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is determined
on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins. It equals the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by
the greater of the contract value and the ING Joint LifePay Base, as of the last day of the Growth Phase. The
first withdrawal after the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay rider (which causes the end of the Growth
Phase) is treated as occurring on the first day of the Withdrawal Phase, immediately after calculation of the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage, which varies by age of the
youngest active spouse on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins, is as follows:

Annuitant Age   Maximum Annual  
    Withdrawal Percentage  
55-64   4 %
65-75   5 %
76-80   6 %
81 + 7 %

 

Once determined the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage never changes for the contract. This is
important to keep in mind in deciding when to take your first withdrawal because the younger you are at that
time, the lower the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage.

If the ING Joint LifePay rider is in the Growth Phase, and the annuity commencement date is reached, the ING
Joint LifePay rider will enter the Withdrawal Phase and annuity payments will begin. In lieu of the annuity
options under the Contract, you may elect a life only annuity option under which we will pay the greater of the
annuity payout under the Contract and annual payments equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, provided
that, if both spouses are active, payments under the life only annuity option will be calculated using the joint life
expectancy table for both spouses. If only one spouse is active, payments will be calculated using the single life
expectancy table for the active spouse.

Whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is subject to change depends on the extent of your withdrawals.
The amount of your withdrawal or withdrawals in a contract year that, when added together, do not exceed the
Maximum Withdrawal Amount do not reduce the Maximum Withdrawal Amount. However, if the total
amount of your withdrawals in any contract year exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, then the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced in the same proportion as the contract value is reduced by the
amount of the excess withdrawal.

For this purpose, an excess withdrawal is the lesser of the amount by which your total withdrawals in a Contract
year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the amount of your present request for a withdrawal. The
amount of any applicable premium credit deduction (recapture) or surrender charges are not included in
determining whether the total amount of your withdrawals in a Contract year exceeds the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal and triggers a pro-rata reduction. However, in the event that the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is
to be subject to a pro-rata reduction because of an excess withdrawal, the amount by which the Maximum
Annual Withdrawal will be reduced will include any premium credit deduction and surrender charges. See
Illustrations 1 and 2 below for examples of this concept.

Required Minimum Distributions. Withdrawals taken from the contract to satisfy the Required
Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code are considered withdrawals for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay
rider, and will begin the Withdrawal Phase if the Withdrawal Phase has not already started. Any such
withdrawal, which exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for a specific contract year, will not be deemed
excess withdrawals in that contract year for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay rider, subject to the following:

1 ) If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January
    31 of that year), applicable to this contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that
    date, an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum
    Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H13


 

2 ) Once you have taken the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current contract year, the dollar
    amount of any additional withdrawal will count against and reduce the Additional Withdrawal Amount
    without being deemed an excess withdrawal.
 
3 ) In the event of any withdrawals that exceed both the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional
    Withdrawal Amount, the dollar amount of these withdrawals will be deemed excess withdrawals that
    cause the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be reduced on a pro-rata basis, as described above.
 
4 ) The Additional Withdrawal Amount is available on a calendar year basis and recalculated every
    January, reset to equal the portion of the Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year that
    exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Any unused amount of the Additional Withdrawal
    Amount does not carry over into the next calendar year.
 
5 ) The ING Joint LifePay rider cannot accommodate any grace periods allowed for Required Minimum
    Distributions pursuant to the Tax Code.
 
6 ) The Additional Withdrawal Amount does not change in the event you choose to reset the Maximum
    Annual Withdrawal Amount. See “ING Joint LifePay Reset Option” below. The Additional
    Withdrawal Amount is only subject to change when the Additional Withdrawal Amount is reset as
    described above.

 

See Illustrations 3 and 4 below.

Investment Advisory Fees. Withdrawals taken pursuant to a program established by the owner for the
payment of investment advisory fees to a named third party investment adviser for advice on management of
the contract’s values will not cause the Withdrawal Phase to begin. During the Growth Phase, such withdrawals
reduce the ING Joint LifePay Base in the same proportion as contract value is reduced by the amount of these
fees. During the Withdrawal Phase, these withdrawals are treated as any other withdrawal.

Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in
excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the contract and the ING Joint LifePay rider will terminate
without value due to the pro-rata reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,”
above.

If the contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal while the ING Joint LifePay rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the ING Joint
LifePay rider will enter Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are no longer entitled to make
withdrawals. Instead, under the ING Joint LifePay rider you will begin to receive periodic payments in an
annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

When the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1 ) other than as provided under the ING Joint LifePay rider, the contract will provide no further benefits
    (including death benefits);
2 ) no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3 ) any other riders attached to the contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

 

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount
that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The time period for which we will make these payments will
depend upon whether one or two spouses are active under the ING Joint LifePay rider at the time this status
begins. If both spouses are active under the ING Joint LifePay rider, these payments will cease upon the death
of the second spouse, at which time both the ING Joint LifePay rider and the contract will terminate without
further value. If only one spouse is active under the ING Joint LifePay rider, the payments will cease upon the

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H14


 

death of the active spouse, at which time both the ING Joint LifePay rider and the contract will terminate
without value.

If when the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, your net withdrawals to
date are less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you the difference
immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full contract year following the date
the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid
annually thereafter.

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the contract. Under a systematic
withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be
withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at
the time the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving
systematic withdrawals under the contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at
the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each contract year will equal the
annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously
set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually
or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-contract year or contract year, as applicable.

ING Joint LifePay Reset Option. Beginning one year after the Withdrawal Phase begins, you may choose to
reset the Maximum Annual Withdrawal when the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, as recalculated, would be greater
than your current Maximum Annual Withdrawal, based on the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage
times contract value. You must elect to reset by a request in a form satisfactory to us. On the date the request is
received (the “Reset Effective Date”), the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will increase to be equal to the applicable
Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage times the contract value on the Reset Effective Date. (For your
Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage, see “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal” above). The
reset option is only available when the ING Joint LifePay rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. We
reserve the right to limit resets to the contract anniversary.

After exercising the reset option, you must wait one year before electing to reset again. We will not accept a request
to reset if the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal on the date the request is received would be less than your current
Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

If the reset option is exercised, the charge for the ING Joint LifePay rider will be equal to the charge then in effect
for a newly purchased rider but will not exceed the maximum annual charge of 1.50%. However, we guarantee that
the ING Joint LifePay rider charge will not increase for resets exercised within the first five contract years. See
Illustration 4 below.

Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING Joint LifePay rider is in effect, there are limits on the
portfolios to which your contract value may be allocated. Contract value allocated to portfolios other than Accepted
Funds will be rebalanced so as to maintain at least 20% of such contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds. See
“Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below. We have these restrictions to mitigate the insurance risk
inherent in our guarantees with this rider. We require this allocation regardless of your investment instructions to
the Contract. The timing of when and how we apply these restrictions is discussed further below.

Accepted Funds. Currently, the Accepted Funds are:  
 
BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund ING Retirement Conservative Portfolio
ING American Funds Asset Allocation Portfolio ING Retirement Growth Portfolio
ING American Funds World Allocation Portfolio ING Retirement Moderate Growth Portfolio
ING Invesco Van Kampen Equity and Income ING Retirement Moderate Portfolio
Portfolio  
ING Liquid Assets Portfolio ING T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio
ING MFS Total Return Portfolio Fixed Interest Allocation
ING Oppenheimer Active Allocation Portfolio

If this rider was purchased before February 2, 2009, the following are additional Accepted Funds:
 
ING Franklin Templeton Founding Strategy Portfolio  
ING WisdomTreeSM Global High-Yielding Equity Index Portfolio
 
We may change these designations at any time upon 30 days notice to you. If a change is made, the change
will apply to contract value allocated to such portfolios after the date of the change.
 
Fixed Allocation Funds. Currently, the Fixed Allocation Funds are:
 
ING American Funds Bond Portfolio ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio
ING BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio ING U.S. Bond Index Portfolio
ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio  

 

You may allocate contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING
Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds
Automatic Rebalancing.

Other Funds. All portfolios available under the contract other than the Accepted Funds or Fixed
Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is
less than 20% of the total contract value allocated to both the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any
ING Joint LifePay Rebalancing Date, we will automatically rebalance the contract value allocated to the Fixed
Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that 20% of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds.
Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done
on a pro-rata basis from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds and will be the last transaction
processed on that date. The ING Joint LifePay Rebalancing Dates occur on each contract anniversary and after
the following transactions:

1 ) receipt of additional premiums;
2 ) transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or
    specifically directed by you; and
3 ) withdrawals from a Fixed Allocation Fund or Other Fund.

 

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the
contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the contract causes the allocations to be out of
compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic
Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See
“Appendix G – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.” You will be notified that Fixed
Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred, along with your new allocations, by a confirmation
statement that will be mailed to you after Fixed Allocation Funds Rebalancing has occurred.

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the
Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in them. See “Appendix G – Examples
of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING Joint
LifePay rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these
transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING
Joint LifePay rider if you do not wish to have your contract value reallocated in this manner.

Divorce. Generally, in the event of a divorce, the spouse who retains ownership of the contract will continue to
be entitled to all rights and benefits of the ING Joint LifePay rider, while the ex-spouse will no longer have any such
rights or be entitled to any such benefits. In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status,
the ING Joint LifePay rider continues, and terminates upon the death of the owner (first owner in the case of joint

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H16


 

owners, or the annuitant in the case of a custodial IRA). Although spousal continuation may be available under the
Tax Code for a subsequent spouse, the ING Joint LifePay rider cannot be continued by the new spouse. As the
result of the divorce, we may be required to withdraw assets for the benefit of an ex-spouse. Any such withdrawal
will be considered a withdrawal for purposes of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount. In other words, if a
withdrawal incident to a divorce exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount, it will be considered an excess
withdrawal. See “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above. As noted, in the event of a divorce
there is no change to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and we will continue to deduct charges for the ING Joint
LifePay rider.

In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, there will be no change to the periodic
payments made. Payments will continue until both spouses are deceased.

Death of Owner. The death of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner, or for custodial IRAs,
the annuitant) during Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status may cause the termination of the ING Joint LifePay
rider and its charges, depending upon whether one or both spouses are in active status at the time of death, as
described below.

1 ) If both spouses are in active status: If the surviving spouse elects to continue the contract and
    becomes the sole owner and annuitant, the ING Joint LifePay rider will remain in effect pursuant to its
    original terms and ING Joint LifePay coverage and charges will continue. As of the date the contract
    is continued, if the Contract is in the Growth Phase, then the ING Joint LifePay Base will be increased
    to equal the contract value, if greater. Otherwise, if the Contract is in the Withdrawal Phase, then the
    Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be set to the greater of the existing Maximum Annual Withdrawal
    or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the contract value on the date the
    contract is continued. Such a reset will not count as an exercise of the ING Joint LifePay Reset
    Option, and rider charges will not increase.
 
    If the surviving spouse elects not to continue the contract, ING Joint LifePay rider coverage and
    charges will cease upon the earlier of payment of the death benefit or notice that an alternative
    distribution option has been chosen.
 
2 ) If the surviving spouse is in inactive status: The ING Joint LifePay rider terminates and ING Joint
    LifePay coverage and charges cease upon proof of death.

 

Change of Owner or Annuitant. Other than as a result of spousal continuation, you may not change the
annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay rider and rider charges will terminate upon change of owner, including adding an
additional owner, except for the following ownership changes:

1 ) spousal continuation by an active spouse, as described above;
2 ) change of owner from one custodian to another custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
3 ) change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual (in order to
    avoid the owner’s spouse from being designated inactive, the owner’s spouse must be named sole
    beneficiary under the contract);
4 ) change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5 ) collateral assignments;
6 ) for nonqualified contracts only, the addition of a joint owner, provided that the additional joint owner
    is the original owner’s spouse and is active when added as joint owner;
7 ) for nonqualified contracts, removal of a joint owner, provided the removed joint owner is active and
    becomes the primary contract beneficiary; and

 

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H17


 

8 ) change of owner where the owner becomes the sole primary beneficiary and the sole primary
    beneficiary becomes the owner if both were active spouses at the time of the change.

 

Surrender Charges. If you elect the ING Joint LifePay rider, the amount of your withdrawals will be subject
to surrender charges and any recapture of credits if they exceed the free withdrawal amount. However, once your
contract value is zero, the periodic payments under the ING Joint LifePay rider are not subject to surrender charges,
nor will these amounts be subject to any other charges under the contract. See below for examples.

Federal Tax Considerations. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the
ING Joint LifePay rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death
Benefit.”

ING LifePay and ING Joint LifePay Partial Withdrawal Amount Examples. The following are examples of
adjustments to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal:

Illustration 1: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including surrender and/or MVA charges.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $500 of surrender charges, and/or MVA
charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $300 of surrender charges, and/or MVA
charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed
the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $200 of surrender charges, and/or MVA
charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, then there
is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $7,000 ($3,000 + $500 + $1,500 + $300 + $1,500 + $200). The
adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum
Annual Withdrawal ($7,000 - $5,000 = $2,000), and the amount of the current gross withdrawal ($1,500 + 200 =
$1,700.

If the Account Value before this withdrawal is $50,000, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 3.40%
($1,700 / $50,000) to $4,830 ((1 - 3.40%) * $5,000).

Illustration 2: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA
charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA
charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed
the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA
charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, there is an
adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

H18


 

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500). The adjustment is the lesser
of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000,
and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $1,500.

If the Account Value after the part of the gross withdrawal that was within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $500,
is $49,500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 2.02% ($1,000 / $49,500) to $4,899 ((1 - 2.02%)
* $5,000).

Illustration 3: A withdrawal exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount but does not exceed the
Additional Withdrawal Amount.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. The RMD for the current calendar year applicable to this
contract is determined to be $6,000. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of this amount
above the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000).

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA
charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA
charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed
the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA
charges. Total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, however, the
Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not adjusted until the Additional Withdrawal Amount is exhausted. The amount by
which total net withdrawals taken exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000), is the same
as the Additional Withdrawal Amount, so no adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is made. If total net
withdrawals taken had exceeded the sum of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional Withdrawal
Amount, then an adjustment would be made to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Illustration 4: An Additional Withdrawal Amount expires at the end of the calendar year before it is
withdrawn.

Assume the most recent contract date was July 1, 2007 and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. Also
assume RMDs, applicable to this contract, are $6,000 and $5,000 for the 2008 and 2009 calendar years respectively.

Between July 1, 2007 and December 31, 2007 a withdrawal of $5,000 is taken which exhausts the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal.

On January 1, 2008, the Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of the 2008 RMD above the
existing Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000). Note that the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has
been exhausted however is still used to calculate the Additional Withdrawal Amount.

The owner now has until December 31, 2008 to take the newly calculated Additional Withdrawal Amount of
$1,000. The owner decides not to take the Additional Withdrawal Amount of $1,000 in 2008.

On January 1, 2009, the Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of the 2009 RMD above the
existing Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $0 ($5,000-$5,000). Note that the Additional Withdrawal Amount of
$1,000 from the 2008 calendar year does not carry over to the 2009 calendar year.

Illustration 5: The Reset Option is utilized.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000 and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage is 5%.

One year after the first withdrawal is taken, the contract value has increased to $120,000, and the Reset Option is
utilized. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is now $6,000 ($120,000 * 5%).

One year after the Reset Option was first utilized, the contract value has increased further to $130,000. The Reset
Option is utilized again, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is now $6,500 ($130,000 * 5%).

APPENDIX I

 

Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit

 

Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Rider (MGWB). Effective September 4, 2007, the MGWB rider is
no longer available. The MGWB rider, marketed under the name, ING PrincipalGuard Withdrawal Benefit, is an
optional benefit which guarantees that if your contract value is reduced to zero, you will receive periodic payments.
The amount of the periodic payments is based on the amount in the MGWB Withdrawal Account. Only premiums
added to your Contract during the first two-year period after your rider date are included in the MGWB
Withdrawal Account. Any additional premium payments added after the second rider anniversary are not included
in the MGWB Withdrawal Account. Thus, the MGWB rider may not be appropriate for you if you plan to add
substantial premium payments after your second rider anniversary. If you elect the MGWB rider, you may not
allocate contract value to the GET Fund or the Fixed Interest Division. For Contracts purchased on and after
August 7, 2006, the MGWB rider was available if you elected the premium credit option. (Otherwise, the MGWB
rider was not available with the premium credit option).

The guarantee provides that, subject to the conditions described below, the amount you will receive in periodic
payments is equal to your Eligible Payment Amount adjusted for any prior withdrawals. Your Eligible Payment
Amount depends on when you purchase the MGWB rider and equals:

1 ) if you purchased the MGWB rider on the contract date: your premium payments received during the first
    two contract years;
 
2 ) if you purchased the MGWB rider after the contract date: your contract value on the Rider Date, including
    any premiums received that day, and any subsequent premium payments received during the two-year
    period commencing on the Rider Date.

 

To maintain the guarantee, withdrawals in any contract year may not exceed 7% of your Eligible Payment Amount
adjusted, as defined below. If your contract value is reduced to zero, your periodic payments will be 7% of your
Eligible Payment Amount every year. Payments continue until your MGWB Withdrawal Account is reduced to zero.
Please note that before Automatic Periodic Benefit status is reached, withdrawals in excess of the free withdrawal
amount will be subject to surrender charges. Once your contract reaches Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, the
periodic payments paid under the MGWB rider are not subject to surrender charges.

The MGWB Withdrawal Account is equal to the Eligible Payment Amount adjusted for any withdrawals. The
Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (or “MAW”) is equal to 7% of the Eligible Payment Amount. Withdrawals
up to the MAW will reduce the value of your MGWB Withdrawal Account by the dollar amount of the withdrawal.
Any withdrawals greater than the MAW will cause a reduction in the MGWB Withdrawal Account by the
proportion that the excess withdrawal bears to the remaining contract value after the withdrawal of the MAW.

Any withdrawals greater than the MAW will also cause a reduction in the Eligible Payment Amount by the
proportion that the excess portion of the withdrawal bears to the contract value remaining after withdrawal of the
MAW at the time of the withdrawal. Examples of excess withdrawals are at the end of this appendix.

Once your contract value is zero, any periodic payments paid under the MGWB rider also reduce the MGWB
Withdrawal Account by the dollar amount of the payments. If a withdrawal reduces the MGWB Withdrawal
Account to zero, the MGWB rider terminates and no further benefits are payable under the rider.

There are tax implications of withdrawals and payments under the MGWB rider. See “Withdrawals” and “Federal
Tax Considerations” in the prospectus for more information. You should not make any withdrawals if you wish
to retain the option to elect the Step-Up Benefit (see below).

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

I1


 

The MGWB Withdrawal Account is only a calculation which represents the remaining amount available for periodic
payments. It does not represent a contract value, nor does it guarantee performance of the subaccounts in which you
are invested. It will not affect your annuitization, surrender and death benefits.

Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. You may continue to make withdrawals in any amount permitted under your
Contract so long as your contract value is greater than zero. See “Withdrawals” in the prospectus. However,
making any withdrawals in any year greater than the MAW will reduce the Eligible Payment Amount and payments
under the MGWB rider by the proportion that the withdrawal bears to the contract value at the time of the
withdrawal. The MGWB rider will remain in force and you may continue to make withdrawals each year so long as:

1 ) your contract value is greater than zero;
2 ) your MGWB Withdrawal Account is greater than zero;
3 ) you have not reached your latest allowable annuity start date;
4 ) you have not elected to annuitize your Contract; and
5 ) you have not died (unless your spouse has elected to continue the Contract), changed the ownership of
    the Contract or surrendered the Contract.

 

The standard Contract provision limiting withdrawals to no more than 90% of the cash surrender value is not
applicable under the MGWB rider.

Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Under the MGWB rider, in the event your contract value is reduced to
zero, your Contract is given Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if:

1 ) your MGWB Withdrawal Account is greater than zero;
2 ) you have not reached your latest allowable annuity start date;
3 ) you have not elected to annuitize your Contract; and
4 ) you have not died, changed the ownership of the Contract or surrendered the Contract.

 

Once your Contract is given Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you the annual MGWB periodic
payments, beginning on the next contract anniversary until the earliest of: (i) your Contract’s latest annuity start
date; (ii) the death of the owner; or (iii) your MGWB Withdrawal Account is exhausted. These payments are equal
to the lesser of the remaining MGWB Withdrawal Account or the MAW. We will reduce the MGWB Withdrawal
Account by the amount of each payment. Once your Contract is given Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will
not accept any additional premium payments in your Contract, and the Contract will not provide any benefits except
those provided by the MGWB rider. Any other rider terminates. Your Contract will remain in Automatic Periodic
Benefit Status until the earliest of: (i) payment of all MGWB periodic payments; (ii) payment of the Commuted
Value (defined below); or (iii) the owner’s death.

On the Contract’s latest annuity start date, in lieu of making the remaining MGWB periodic payments, we will pay
you the Commuted Value of your MGWB periodic payments remaining. We may, at our option, extend your
annuity start date in order to continue the MGWB periodic payments. The Commuted Value is the present value of
any then-remaining MGWB periodic payments at the current interest rate plus 0.50%. The current interest rate will
be determined by the average of the Ask Yields for U.S. Treasury STRIPS as quoted by a national quoting service
for period(s) applicable to the remaining payments. Once we pay you the last MGWB periodic payment or the
Commuted Value, your Contract and the MGWB rider terminate.

Reset Option. Beginning on the fifth contract anniversary following the Rider Date, if the contract value is
greater than the MGWB Withdrawal Account, you may choose to reset the MGWB Rider. The effect will be to
terminate the existing MGWB Rider and add a new MGWB Rider (“New Rider”). The MGWB Withdrawal
Account under the New Rider will equal the contract value on the date the New Rider is effective. The charge for
the MGWB under the New Rider and any right to reset again will be based on the terms of the New Rider when it is
issued. We reserve the right to limit the reset election to contract anniversaries only. If you elect the Reset Option,
the Step-Up benefit is not available.

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

I2


 

Step-Up Benefit. If the Rider Date is the same as the Contract Date, beginning on the fifth contract anniversary
following the Rider Date, if you have not made any previous withdrawals, you may elect to increase the MGWB
Withdrawal Account, the adjusted Eligible Payment Amount and the MAW by a factor of 20%. This option is
available whether or not the contract value is greater than the MGWB Withdrawal Account. If you elect the Step-
Up Benefit:

1 ) we reserve the right to increase the charge for the MGWB Rider up to a maximum annual charge of
    1.00% of contract value;
 
2 ) you must wait at least five years from the Step-Up date to elect the Reset Option.

 

The Step-Up Benefit may be elected only one time under the MGWB Rider. We reserve the right to limit the
election of The Step-Up benefit to contract anniversary only. Please note that if you have a third party investment
advisor who charges a separate advisory fee, and you have chosen to use withdrawals from your Contract to pay this
fee, these will be treated as any other withdrawals, and the Step-Up Benefit will not be available.

Death of Owner
Before Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The MGWB rider terminates on the first owner’s date of death
(death of annuitant, if there is a non-natural owner), but the death benefit is payable. However, if the beneficiary is
the owner’s spouse, the spouse elects to continue the Contract, and the contract value steps up to the minimum
guaranteed death benefit, the MGWB Withdrawal Account and MAW are also reset. The MGWB charge will
continue at the existing rate. Reset upon spousal continuation does not affect any then existing Reset Option.

During Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The death benefit payable during Automatic Periodic Benefit
Status is your MGWB Withdrawal Account which equals the sum of the remaining MGWB periodic payments.

Purchase and Charge. To purchase the MGWB rider, you must be age 80 or younger on the Rider Date. The
MGWB rider must be purchased on the contract date. The charge for the MGWB rider is as follows:

Maximum Annual Charge if Step-Up Current Annual Charge
Benefit Elected (Charge Deducted Quarterly)
1.00% of the contract value 0.45% of the contract value

 

Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (MGWB). The annual charge for the MGWB rider is 0.45%
(0.12% quarterly) of the contract value. Before May 1, 2005, the annual charge was 0.35% of the contract value.
The charge is deducted from the contract value on each quarterly contract anniversary date, in arrears. We will
deduct charges during the period starting on the rider date and up to your Contract’s Automatic Periodic Benefit
Status. Automatic Periodic Benefit Status will occur if your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions
are met. Please see “Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit - Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” in this
prospectus. If you elect the Step-Up Benefit, we reserve the right to increase the charge for the MGWB rider,
subject to the maximum annual charge of 1.00% of contract value. If you surrender or annuitize your Contract, we
will deduct a pro-rata portion of the charge for the current quarter based on the current quarterly charge rate
immediately prior to the surrender or annuitization.

MGWB Excess Withdrawal Amount Examples
The following are examples of adjustments to the MGWB Withdrawal Account and the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal Amount for transfers and withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (“Excess
Withdrawal Amount”).

Example # 1: Contract Value is greater than the MGWB Withdrawal Account

Assume the Contract Value (CV) before the withdrawal is $120,000, the Eligible Payment Amount (EPA) is
$100,000, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (MAW) is $7,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account
(“Withdrawal Account”) is $80,000, and a withdrawal of $10,000 is made. The effect of the withdrawal is
calculated as follows:

ING Empire Traditions – 85618

I3


 

The new CV is $110,000 ($120,000 - $10,000).
The Excess Withdrawal Amount is $3,000 ($10,000 - $7,000).

The MGWB Withdrawal Account is first reduced dollar-for-dollar by the portion of the withdrawal up to the
MAW to $73,000 ($80,000 - $7,000), and is then reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal
Amount to the CV (after being reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $71,061.95 ($73,000 * (1 - $3,000 /
$113,000)).

The EPA is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal Amount to the CV (after being
reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $97,345.13 ($100,000 * (1 - $3,000 / $113,000)). The MAW is then
recalculated to be 7% of the new EPA, $6,814.15 ($97,345.13 * 7%).

Example # 2: Contract Value is less than the MGWB Withdrawal Account

Assume the Contract Value (CV) before the withdrawal is $60,000, the Eligible Payment Amount (EPA) is
$100,000, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (MAW) is $7,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account
(“Withdrawal Account”) is $80,000, and a withdrawal of $10,000 is made. The effect of the withdrawal is
calculated as follows:

The new CV is $50,000 ($60,000 - $10,000).
The Excess Withdrawal Amount is $3,000 ($10,000 - $7,000).

The MGWB Withdrawal Account is first reduced dollar-for-dollar by the portion of the withdrawal up to the
MAW to $73,000 ($80,000 - $7,000), and is then reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal
Amount to the CV (after being reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $68,867.92 ($73,000 * (1 - $3,000 /
$53,000)).

The EPA is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal Amount to the CV (after being
reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $94,339.62 ($100,000 * (1 - $3,000 / $53,000)). The MAW is then
recalculated to be 7% of the new EPA, $6,603.77 ($94,339.62 * 7%).

Example # 3: Contract Value is equal to the MGWB Withdrawal Account

Assume the Contract Value (CV) before the withdrawal is $80,000, the Eligible Payment Amount (EPA) is
$100,000, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (MAW) is $7,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account
(“Withdrawal Account”) is $80,000, and a withdrawal of $10,000 is made. The effect of the withdrawal is
calculated as follows:

The new CV is $70,000 ($80,000 - $10,000).
The Excess Withdrawal Amount is $3,000 ($10,000 - $7,000).

The MGWB Withdrawal Account is first reduced dollar-for-dollar by the portion of the withdrawal up to the
MAW to $73,000 ($80,000 - $7,000), and is then reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal
Amount to the CV (after being reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $70,000.00 ($73,000 * (1 - $3,000 /
$73,000)).

The EPA is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal Amount to the CV (after being

Introduction
This Statement of Additional Information provides background information regarding Separate Account NY-B.

Description of ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York
ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York (“RLNY”) is a New York stock life insurance company
originally incorporated on June 11, 1917 under the name, The Morris Plan Insurance Society. RLNY is
authorized to transact business in all states, the District of Columbia, the Dominican Republic and the
Cayman Islands and is principally engaged in the business of providing individual life insurance and
annuities, employee benefit products and services, retirement plans, and life and health insurance. Until
October 1, 2003, RLNY was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Security-Connecticut Life Insurance Company
(“Security-Connecticut”). Effective October 1, 2003, Security-Connecticut merged with and into its
parent, ReliaStar Life Insurance Company (“ReliaStar”). ReliaStar is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary
of ING Groep, N.V. (“ING”), a global financial services holding company based in The Netherlands.
RLNY’s financial statements appear in the Statement of Additional Information.

RLNY, an affiliate of ING USA, is licensed to do variable annuity business in the state of New York.

Separate Account NY-B of ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York
Separate Account NY–B is a separate account established by the Company for the purpose of funding
variable annuity contracts issued by the Company. The separate account is registered with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended. Purchase payments to accounts under the contract may be allocated to one or more of the
subaccounts. Each subaccount invests in the shares of only one of the funds offered under the contracts.
We may make additions to, deletions from or substitutions of available investment options as permitted by
law and subject to the conditions of the contract. The availability of the funds is subject to applicable
regulatory authorization. Not all funds are available in all jurisdictions or under all contracts.

Safekeeping of Assets
RLNY acts as its own custodian for Separate Account NY–B.

The Administrator
On November 8, 1996, First Golden American Life Insurance Company of New York (“First Golden”) and
ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (“ING USA”) entered into an administrative service
agreement pursuant to which ING USA agreed to provide certain accounting, actuarial, tax, underwriting,
sales, management and other services to First Golden. Beginning on April 1, 2002, the effective date of
the merger of First Golden into RLNY (“merger date”), the expenses incurred by ING USA in relation to
this service agreement will be reimbursed by RLNY on an allocated cost basis. As of the merger date,
RLNY will be obligated to reimburse these expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and
2008, RLNY incurred expenses of $0, $0 and $0, respectively, under the agreement with ING USA.

Also on November 8, 1996, First Golden, ING USA and Directed Services LLC entered into a service
agreement pursuant to which First Golden and ING USA agreed to provide Directed Services LLC certain
of its personnel to perform management, administrative and clerical services and the use of certain of its
facilities. As of the merger date, RLNY will provide its personnel to provide such services. RLNY
expects to charge Directed Services LLC for such expenses and all other general and administrative costs,
first on the basis of direct charges when identifiable and second allocated based on the estimated amount
of time spent by RLNY’s employees on behalf of Directed Services LLC. For the year ended December
31, 2010, there were no charges to ING USA and Directed Services LLC for these services.

Experts
The statements of assets and liabilities of Separate Account NY-B as of December 31, 2010, and the
related statements of operations and changes in net assets for the periods disclosed in the financial
statements, and the statutory basis financial statements of ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York
as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010,
included in the Statement of Additional Information, have been audited by Ernst & Young LLP,
independent registered public accounting firm, as set forth in their reports thereon appearing elsewhere
herein, and are included in reliance upon such reports given on the authority of such firm as experts in
accounting and auditing.

The primary business address of Ernst & Young LLP is Suite 1000, 55 Ivan Allen Jr. Boulevard,
Atlanta, GA 30308.

Distribution of Contracts
The offering of contracts under the prospectus associated with this Statement of Additional Information is
continuous. Directed Services LLC, an affiliate of RLNY, acts as the principal underwriter (as defined in
the Securities Act of 1933 and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the variable
insurance products (the “variable insurance products”) issued by RLNY. The contracts are distributed
through registered representatives of other broker-dealers who have entered into selling agreements with
Directed Services LLC. For the years ended 2010, 2009 and 2008 commissions paid by ING USA,
including amounts paid by its affiliated Company, ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York, to
Directed Services LLC aggregated $3,678,585, $6,918,468 and $17,072,601 respectively. As of the
merger date, RLNY became the depositor for these variable insurance products. All commissions received
by the distributor were passed through to the broker-dealers who sold the contracts. Directed Services
LLC is located at 1475 Dunwoody Drive, West Chester, Pennsylvania 19380-1478.

Published Ratings
From time to time, the rating of RLNY as an insurance company by A.M. Best Company may be referred
to in advertisements or in reports to contract owners. Each year A.M. Best Company reviews the financial
status of thousands of insurers, culminating in the assignment of Best’s Ratings. These ratings reflect their
current opinion of the relative financial strength and operating performance of an insurance company in
comparison to the norms of the life/health insurance industry. Best’s ratings range from A++ to F. An
A++ and a A+ rating means, in the opinion of A.M. Best, that the insurer has demonstrated the strongest
ability to meet its respective policyholder and other contractual obligations.

Accumulation Unit Value
The calculation of the Accumulation Unit Value (“AUV”) is discussed in the prospectus and below. Note
that in your Contract, contract value is referred to as accumulation value. The following illustrations show
a calculation of a new AUV and the purchase of Units (using hypothetical examples). Note that the
examples below are calculated for a Contract issued with the Annual Ratchet Death Benefit Option, the
death benefit option with the highest mortality and expense risk charge. The mortality and expense risk
charge associated with the Standard Death Benefit Option is lower than that used in the examples and
would result in higher AUV’s or contract values.

Illustration of Calculation of AUV    
Example 1.    
1 . AUV, beginning of period $ 10.00000000
2 . Value of securities, beginning of period $ 10.00000000
3 . Change in value of securities   0.10000000
4 . Gross investment return (3) divided by (2)   0.01000000
5 . Less daily mortality and expense charge   0.00003446
6 . Less asset based administrative charge   0.00000411
7 . Net investment return (4) minus (5) minus (6)   0.00996163
8 . Net investment factor (1.000000) plus (7)   1.00996163
9 . AUV, end of period (1) multiplied by (8) $ 10.09961430
 
Illustration of Purchase of Units (Assuming No State Premium Tax)    
Example 2.    
1 . Initial Premium Payment $ 1,000
2 . AUV on effective date of purchase (see Example 1) $ 10.00000000
3 . Number of Units purchased [(1) divided by (2)]   100.00000000
4 . AUV for valuation date following purchase (see Example 1) $ 10.09961430
5 . Contract Value in account for valuation date following    
    purchase [(3) multiplied by (4)] $ 1,009.96

 

Performance Information
From time to time, we may advertise or include in reports to contract owners performance information for
the subaccounts of Separate Account NY–B, including the average annual total return performance, yields
and other nonstandard measures of performance. Such performance data will be computed, or
accompanied by performance data computed, in accordance with standards defined by the SEC.

Except for the Liquid Assets subaccount, quotations of yield for the subaccounts will be based on all
investment income per unit (contract value divided by the accumulation unit) earned during a given 30-day
period, less expenses accrued during such period. Information on standard total average annual return
performance will include average annual rates of total return for 1, 5 and 10 year periods, or lesser periods
depending on how long Separate Account NY–B has been investing in the portfolio. We may show other
total returns for periods of less than one year. Total return figures will be based on the actual historic
performance of the subaccounts of Separate Account NY–B, assuming an investment at the beginning of
the period when the separate account first invested in the portfolio and withdrawal of the investment at the
end of the period, adjusted to reflect the deduction of all applicable portfolio and current contract charges.
We may also show rates of total return on amounts invested at the beginning of the period with no
withdrawal at the end of the period. Total return figures which assume no withdrawals at the end of the
period will reflect all recurring charges, but will not reflect the surrender charge. In addition, we may
present historic performance data for the investment portfolios since their inception reduced by some or all
of the fees and charges under the Contract. Such adjusted historic performance includes data that precedes
the inception dates of the subaccounts of Separate Account NY-B. This data is designed to show the
performance that would have resulted if the Contract had been in existence before the separate account
began investing in the portfolios.

3


 

Current yield for the Liquid Assets subaccount is based on income received by a hypothetical investment
over a given 7-day period, less expenses accrued, and then “annualized” (i.e., assuming that the 7-day
yield would be received for 52 weeks). We calculate “effective yield” for the Liquid Assets subaccount in
a manner similar to that used to calculate yield, but when annualized, the income earned by the investment
is assumed to be reinvested. The “effective yield” will thus be slightly higher than the “yield” because of
the compounding effect of earnings. We calculate quotations of yield for the remaining subaccounts on all
investment income per accumulation unit earned during a given 30-day period, after subtracting fees and
expenses accrued during the period, assuming no surrender. You should be aware that there is no
guarantee that the Liquid Assets subaccount will have a positive or level return.

We may compare performance information for a subaccount to: (i) the Standard & Poor’s 500 Stock
Index, Dow Jones Industrial Average, Donoghue Money Market Institutional Averages, or any other
applicable market indices; (ii) other variable annuity separate accounts or other investment products
tracked by Lipper Analytical Services (a widely used independent research firm which ranks mutual funds
and other investment companies), or any other rating service; and (iii) the Consumer Price Index (measure
for inflation) to determine the real rate of return of an investment in the Contract. Our reports and
promotional literature may also contain other information including the ranking of any subaccount based
on rankings of variable annuity separate accounts or other investment products tracked by Lipper
Analytical Services or by similar rating services.

Performance information reflects only the performance of a hypothetical contract and should be considered
in light of other factors, including the investment objective of the investment portfolio and market
conditions. Please keep in mind that past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

Other Information
Registration statements have been filed with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended, with
respect to the Contracts discussed in this Statement of Additional Information. Not all of the information
set forth in the registration statements, amendments and exhibits thereto has been included in this
Statement of Additional Information. Statements contained in this Statement of Additional Information
concerning the content of the Contracts and other legal instruments are intended to be summaries. For a
complete statement of the terms of these documents, reference should be made to the instruments filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
The Board of Directors and Stockholder
ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York

 

We have audited the accompanying statutory basis balance sheets of ReliaStar Life Insurance
Company of New York (the “Company,” an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of ING America
Insurance Holdings, Inc.), as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statutory basis
statements of operations, changes in capital and surplus, and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting
as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company presents its financial statements
in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by New York Department of
Commerce, Division of Insurance (“New York Insurance Department”), which practices differ
from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The variances between such practices and
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles are described in Note 1. The effects on the
financial statements of these variances are not reasonably determinable but are presumed to be
material.

In our opinion, because of the effects of the matter described in the preceding paragraph, the
financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles, the financial position of ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of
New York at December 31, 2010 and 2009, or the results of its operations or its cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010.


 

However, in our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York at
December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting practices
prescribed or permitted by the New York Insurance Department.
 
As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company changed its method of
accounting for income taxes in 2009.

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

1 . Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
 
    ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York (the "Company") is domiciled in New
    York and is a wholly owned subsidiary of ReliaStar Life Insurance Company
    ("ReliaStar"), a Minnesota domiciled insurance company. ReliaStar is a wholly owned
    subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc. (“Lion”), a Connecticut domiciled non-
    insurance holding company. Lion, in turn, is a wholly owned subsidiary of ING America
    Insurance Holdings, Inc. (“ING AIH”), a Delaware domiciled non-insurance holding
    company. The Company’s ultimate parent is ING Groep, N.V. (“ING”), a global
    financial services company based in the Netherlands.
 
    Description of Business
 
    The Company principally provides and distributes life insurance and related financial
    services products, including individual life insurance and annuities, group life, and health
    products and services. The Company’s strategy is to offer a wide variety of products and
    services designed to address customers’ needs for financial security, especially tax
    advantaged savings for retirement and protection in the event of death. The Company is
    presently licensed in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
 
    Use of Estimates
 
    The preparation of the financial statements of the Company requires management to
    make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements
    and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as
    more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and
    disclosed herein.
 
    Recently Adopted Accounting Principles
 
    Effective December 31, 2010, the Company adopted Statement of Statutory Accounting
    Principles (“SSAP”) No. 100, Fair Value Measurements (SSAP No. 100). This statement
    defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and establishes the
    following disclosure requirements about fair value:
 
    § Fair value measurements at the reporting date and the source of the fair value
      measurement;
    § The level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall;
    § Significant transfers in and out of Level 3;
    § Purchases, sales, issuances, and settlement in the Level 3 fair value measurements
      reconciliation;
    § Fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities (i.e.
      disaggregated);
    § Valuation techniques and inputs used for Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair value
      measurements.

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

The adoption had no impact on the Company’s Balance Sheet or Statement of
Operations. See footnote 12
 
Effective December 31, 2010, the Company adopted SSAP No. 91R, Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. The
statement initially established statutory accounting principles for transfers and servicing
of financial assets. Amendments to the statement were made in 2010 to clarify that the
adequacy of collateralization should be measured based on the fair value of the collateral
obtained. Under the revised standard, securities pledged as collateral that may be sold or
repledged by the transferor or its agent are reclassified on the Company's balance sheet
separately from assets not so encumbered. Reporting of collateral on the Company's
balance sheet is determined by the administration of the program and is presented
accordingly. The adoption of SSAP No. 91R had no impact on the net income or surplus
of the Company. See Note 3 for additional discloses required by the standard.
 
Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted SSAP No. 43R, Loan-backed and
Structured Securities. This statement provides guidance on recording other-than-
temporary impairments (“OTTI”) on loan-backed and structured securities. When the
holder of a loan-backed or structured security with an unrealized loss position either has
the intent to sell the security or does not have the intent and ability to hold the security for
a period of time sufficient to recover the amortized cost basis, the security must be
written down to fair value.
 
When the holder of a loan-backed or structured security in an unrealized loss position
does not intend to sell the security and has the intent and ability to hold the security for a
period of time sufficient to recover the amortized cost, the holder of the security must
compare the present value of the expected future cash flows for this security to its
amortized cost. If the present value of the expected future cash flows for the security is
lower than its amortized cost, the security is written down to its present value of the
expected future cash flows.
 
In both instances noted above, the total loss recorded is bifurcated between the interest
related loss and the non-interest related loss. The interest related portion shall be recorded
through the IMR and the non-interest related portion shall be recorded through the AVR.
The effects on the Company's 2009 financial statements of adopting this change in
accounting principle at July 1, 2009 were decreases in total admitted assets of $0.8, total
liabilities of $0.3, and capital and surplus of $0.5. This adoption had no impact on net
income.
 
Effective December 31, 2009, the Company adopted SSAP No. 10R, Income Taxes. This
statement requires the Company to calculate admitted deferred tax assets based upon the
gross admitted deferred asset to reverse within one year with a cap on the admitted
portion of the deferred tax asset of 10% of capital and surplus for its most recently filed
statement with the domiciliary state commissioner. If the Company’s risk-based capital

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

(“RBC”) levels, after reflecting the above limitations, exceeds 250% of the authorized
control level, the statement increases the limitation on admitted deferred tax assets from
the deferred asset expected to reverse in one year to what is expected to reverse over the
next three years and increases the cap on the admitted portion of the deferred tax asset
from 10% of capital and surplus for its most recently filed statement with the domiciliary
state commissioner to 15% of capital and surplus for its most recently filed statement
with the domiciliary state commissioner. Other revisions in the statement include
requiring the Company to reduce the gross deferred tax asset by a statutory valuation
allowance adjustment if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than
not (a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that some portion or all of the gross deferred
tax assets will not be realized. The effects on the Company's 2009 financial statements of
adopting this change in accounting principle at December 31, 2009 were increases to
capital and surplus and total admitted assets of $7.3. This adoption had no impact on net
income or total liabilities. The increase in capital and surplus related to the cumulative
effect of adopting this change in accounting principle is disclosed in a separate line in the
Statements of Changes in Capital and Surplus.
 
Effective December 31, 2009, the Company adopted Actuarial Guideline 43 – Variable
Annuity Commissioners Annuity Reserve Valuation Method (“AG43”). The NAIC
replaced the existing formula-based reserve standard methodology (AG34 – Death
Benefits and New York Regulation 128 for living benefits (“Reg 128”) with a stochastic
principles-based methodology (AG43) for determining reserves for all individual variable
annuity contracts with and without guaranteed benefits and all group annuity contracts
with guarantees issued on or after 1/1/1981. Variable payout annuity contracts are also
subject to AG43. Under the requirements of AG43, there is no cumulative effect of
adopting AG43. Reserves calculated using AG43 were higher than reserves calculated
under AG34 and Reg 128 by $46.7. Where the application of AG43 produces higher
reserves than the Company had otherwise established under AG34 and Reg 128, the
Company may request a grade-in period, not to exceed three years, from the Domiciliary
Commissioner. The grading shall be done only on reserves on the contracts in-force as of
December 31, 2009. The reserves under the old basis and the new basis shall be
compared each year with two-thirds of the difference subtracted from the reserve under
the new basis in 2009 and one-third of the difference subtracted from the new basis in
2010. The Company did not elect the grade-in provision, therefore reserves at December
31, 2009 reflect the full impact of the adoption of AG43.
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in
conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the New York Insurance
Department, which practices differ from United States generally accepted accounting
principles (“GAAP”). The more significant variances from GAAP are:

 

10


 

RELIASTAR LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK
Notes to Financial Statements – Statutory Basis
December 31, 2010
(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

Investments: Investments in bonds and mandatorily redeemable preferred stocks are
reported at amortized cost or fair value based on the NAIC rating; for GAAP, such fixed
maturity investments are designated at purchase as held to maturity, trading or available
for sale. Held to maturity investments are reported at amortized cost, and the remaining
fixed maturity investments are reported at fair value with unrealized capital gains and
losses reported in operations for those designated as trading and as a separate component
of other comprehensive income in stockholder’s equity for those designated as available
for sale.
 
Management regularly reviews the value of the Company’s investments in bonds and
mandatorily redeemable preferred stocks. If the value of any investment falls below its
cost basis, the decline is analyzed to determine whether it is an other than temporary
decline in value. To make this determination for each security, the following are some of
the factors considered:
 
§ The length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been below cost.
§ The financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer of the security,
  including any specific events that may affect its operations or earnings potential.
§ Management’s intent and ability to hold the security long enough for it to recover
  its value.
 
Based on the analysis, management makes a judgment as to whether the loss is other than
temporary. If the loss is other than temporary, an impairment charge is recorded within
net realized investment gains (losses) in the Statements of Operation in the period the
determination is made.
 
The Company invests in structured securities including mortgage backed securities/
collateralized mortgage obligations, asset backed securities, collateralized debt
obligations, and commercial mortgage backed securities. For these structured securities in
unrealized loss positions in the periods after the adoption of Statement of Statutory
Accounting Principles (“SSAP”) No. 43R, Loan-backed and Structured Securities,
management determines whether it has the intent to sell or the intent and ability to hold
the security for a period of time sufficient to recover the amortized cost. If management
has the intent and ability to hold the security to recovery, the Company must compare the
present value of the expected future cash flows for this security to its carrying value. If
the present value of the expected future cash flows for the security is lower than its
carrying value, the security is written down to its present value of the expected future
cash flows.
 
When an OTTI is recorded because there is intent to sell or the holder does not have the
intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to recover the
amortized cost basis, the security is written down to fair value. The total loss recorded is
bifurcated between the interest related loss and the non-interest related loss. The interest
related portion shall be deferred through the interest maintenance reserve (“IMR”) and

 

11


 

RELIASTAR LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK
Notes to Financial Statements – Statutory Basis
December 31, 2010
(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

the non-interest related portion shall be included in the asset valuation reserve (“AVR”)
formula prescribed by the NAIC.
 
For these structured securities held in periods prior to the adoption of SSAP No. 43R,
management compared the undiscounted projected future cash flows to the carrying value
and an OTTI was considered to have occurred when the undiscounted cash flows were
less than the carrying value.
 
For GAAP, when a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, the
loss which is calculated as the difference between the securities carrying value and fair
value is recorded in net realized capital gains (losses) in its entirety or bifurcated between
net realized capital gains (losses) and accumulated other comprehensive income, as
appropriate.
 
Realized gains and losses on investments are reported in the Statements of Operations net
of federal income tax and transfers to the IMR. Under GAAP, realized capital gains and
losses are reported in the Statements of Operations on a pretax basis in the period that the
asset giving rise to the gain or loss is sold.
 
SSAP No. 31, Derivative Instruments (“SSAP 31”) applies to derivative transactions
entered into prior to January 1, 2003. The Company also follows the hedge accounting
guidance in SSAP No. 86, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
(“SSAP 86”) for derivative transactions entered into or modified on or after January 1,
2003. Under SSAP 86, derivatives that are deemed effective hedges are accounted for
entirely in a manner which is consistent with the underlying hedged item. Derivatives
used in hedging transactions that do not meet the requirements of SSAP 86 as an
effective hedge are carried at fair value with the change in value recorded in surplus as
unrealized gains or losses. Embedded derivatives are not accounted for separately from
the host contract. Under GAAP, the effective and ineffective portions of a single hedge
are accounted for separately. For effective cash flow hedges, changes in fair value are
credited or charged directly to a separate component of shareholder’s equity rather than
to income as required for fair value hedges. An embedded derivative within a contract
that is not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risk of the host
contract is accounted for separately from the host contract and valued and reported at fair
value, and the change in fair value is recognized in income.
 
Mortgage Loans: Mortgage loans are reported at amortized cost, less write down for
impairments. If the value of any mortgage loan is determined to be impaired (i.e., when
it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the
contractual terms of the loan agreement), the carrying value of the mortgage loan is
reduced to either the present value of expected cash flows from the loan, discounted at
the loan’s effective interest rate, or fair value of the collateral. For those mortgages that
are determined to require foreclosure, the carrying value is reduced to the fair value of the
underlying collateral, net of estimated costs to obtain and sell at the point of foreclosure.

 

12


 

RELIASTAR LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK
Notes to Financial Statements – Statutory Basis
December 31, 2010
(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

The carrying value of the impaired loans is reduced by establishing a permanent write-
down recorded in net realized capital gains (losses). Under GAAP, in addition to
impairments of specific mortgage loans, an allowance is recorded for probable incurred,
but not specifically identified, losses related to factors inherent in the lending process.
 
Valuation Reserves: The AVR is intended to establish a reserve to offset potential credit
related investment losses on most invested asset categories. AVR is determined by an
NAIC prescribed formula and is reported as a liability rather than as a valuation
allowance or an appropriation of surplus. The change in AVR is reported directly to
unassigned surplus.
 
Interest Maintenance Reserve: Under a formula prescribed by the NAIC, the Company
defers the portion of realized gains and losses on sales of fixed income investments,
principally bonds, derivatives, and mortgage loans, attributable to changes in the general
level of interest rates and amortizes those deferrals over the remaining period to maturity
based on groupings of individual securities sold in five year bands. The Company’s net
deferral of IMR is reported as a liability in the accompanying Balance Sheets.
 
Policy Acquisition Costs: The costs of acquiring and renewing business are expensed
when incurred. Under GAAP, acquisition costs related to traditional life insurance, to the
extent recoverable from future policy revenues, are deferred and amortized over the
premium paying period of the related policies using assumptions consistent with those
used in computing policy benefit reserves. For universal life insurance and investment
products, to the extent recoverable from future gross profits, acquisition costs are
amortized generally in proportion to the present value of expected gross profits from
surrender charges and investment, mortality, and expense margins.
 
Premiums: Life premiums are recognized as revenue when due. Premiums for annuity
policies with mortality and morbidity risk, except for guaranteed interest and group
annuity contracts, are also recognized as revenue when due. Premiums received for
annuity policies without mortality or morbidity risk and for guaranteed interest and group
annuity contracts are recorded using deposit accounting.
 
Under GAAP, premiums for traditional life insurance products, which include those
products with fixed and guaranteed premiums and benefits and consist primarily of whole
life insurance policies, are recognized as revenue when due. Group insurance premiums
are recognized as premium revenue over the time period to which the premiums relate.
Revenues for universal life, annuities and guaranteed interest contracts consist of policy
charges for the cost of insurance, policy administration charges, amortization of policy
initiation fees and surrender charges assessed during the period.
 
Benefit and Contract Reserves: Life policy and contract reserves under statutory
accounting practices are calculated based upon both the net level premium and
Commissioners’ Reserve Valuation methods (“CRVM”) using statutory rates for

 

13


 

RELIASTAR LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK
Notes to Financial Statements – Statutory Basis
December 31, 2010
(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

mortality and interest. GAAP requires that policy reserves for traditional products be
based upon the net level premium method utilizing reasonably conservative estimates of
mortality, interest, and withdrawals prevailing when the policies were sold. For interest
sensitive products, the GAAP policy reserve is equal to the policy fund balance plus an
unearned revenue reserve which reflects the unamortized balance of early year policy
loads over renewal year policy loads.
 
Reinsurance: For business ceded to unauthorized reinsurers, statutory accounting
practices require that reinsurance credits permitted by the treaty be recorded as an
offsetting liability and charged against unassigned surplus. Under GAAP, an allowance
for amounts deemed uncollectible would be established through a charge to earnings.
Statutory income recognized on certain reinsurance treaties representing financing
arrangements is not recognized on a GAAP basis.
 
Policy and contract liabilities ceded to reinsurers have been reported as reductions of the
related reserves rather than as assets as required under GAAP.
 
Commissions allowed by reinsurers on business ceded are reported as income when
received rather than being deferred and amortized with deferred policy acquisition costs
as required under GAAP.
 
Gains and losses generated in certain reinsurance transactions are deferred and amortized
over the remaining life of the business for GAAP purposes. For statutory, losses are
recognized immediately in income, with gains reported as a separate component of
surplus and amortized over the remaining life of the business.
 
Nonadmitted Assets: Certain assets designated as “nonadmitted,” principally disallowed
deferred federal income tax assets, disallowed interest maintenance reserves, non
operating software, past due agents’ balances, furniture and equipment, intangible assets,
and other assets not specifically identified as an admitted asset within the NAIC
Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual, are excluded from the accompanying
Balance Sheets and are charged directly to unassigned surplus. Under GAAP, such assets
are included in the Balance Sheets.
 
Employee Benefits: For purposes of calculating the Company’s pension and
postretirement benefit obligations, only vested participants and current retirees are
included in the valuation. Under GAAP, active participants not currently vested are also
included.
 
Universal Life and Annuity Policies: Revenues for universal life and annuity policies
consist of the entire premium received and benefits incurred represent the total of death
benefits paid and the change in policy reserves. Under GAAP, premiums received in
excess of policy charges would not be recognized as premium revenue and benefits

 

14


 

RELIASTAR LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK
Notes to Financial Statements – Statutory Basis
December 31, 2010
(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

would represent the excess of benefits paid over the policy account value and interest
credited to the account values.
 
Policyholder Dividends: Policyholder dividends are recognized when declared. Under
GAAP, dividends are recognized over the term of the related policies.
 
Deferred Income Taxes: Deferred tax assets are provided for and admitted to an amount
determined under a standard formula. This formula considers the amount of differences
that will reverse over the next year, taxes paid in prior years that could be recovered
through carrybacks, surplus limits, and the amount of deferred tax liabilities available for
offset. For periods after the adoption of SSAP No. 10R, Income Taxes, and assuming
certain minimum thresholds are met, the formula allows the Company to consider the
amount that is expected to reverse over the next three years rather than the single year
under SSAP No. 10. SSAP No. 10R also requires the Company to reduce the gross
deferred tax asset by a statutory valuation allowance adjustment if, based on the weight
of available evidence, it is more likely than not (a likelihood of more than 50 percent)
that some portion or all of the gross deferred tax assets will not be realized. Any deferred
tax assets not covered under the formula are nonadmitted. Deferred taxes do not include
any amounts for state taxes. Under GAAP, a deferred tax asset is recorded for the amount
of gross deferred tax assets that are expected to be realized in future years and a valuation
allowance is established for the portion that is more likely than not realizable.
 
Statements of Cash Flows: Cash and short term investments in the Statements of Cash
Flows represent cash balances, demand deposits and short-term fixed maturity
investments with initial maturities of one year or less at the date of acquisition. Under
GAAP, the corresponding caption of cash and cash equivalents includes cash balances
and investments with initial maturities of three months or less. Other invested assets
include cash loaned through the Company’s reciprocal loan program.
 
Reconciliation to GAAP: The effects of the preceding variances from GAAP on the
accompanying statutory basis financial statements have not been determined, but are
presumed to be material.
 
Other significant accounting practices are as follows:
 
Investments: Investments are stated at values prescribed by the NAIC, as follows:
 
Bonds not backed by other loans are principally stated at amortized cost using the
effective interest method.
 
Loan backed securities are stated at either amortized cost or the lower of amortized cost
or fair value. Amortized cost is determined using the effective interest method and
includes anticipated prepayments. The retrospective adjustment method is used to
determine the amortized cost for the majority of loan-backed and structured securities.

 

15


 

RELIASTAR LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK
Notes to Financial Statements – Statutory Basis
December 31, 2010
(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

For certain securities the prospective adjustment method is used, including interest only
securities and securities that have experienced an other-than-temporary impairment.
 
Redeemable preferred stocks rated as high quality or better are reported at cost or
amortized cost. All other redeemable preferred stocks are reported at the lower of cost,
amortized cost, or fair value and nonredeemable preferred stocks are reported at fair
value or the lower of cost or fair value.
 
Common stocks are reported at fair value and the related unrealized capital gains/losses
are reported in unassigned surplus along with adjustment for federal income taxes.
 
The Company’s use of derivatives is primarily for economic hedging purposes to reduce
the Company’s exposure to cash flow variability of assets and liabilities, interest rate risk,
credit risk, and market risk. For those derivatives in effective hedging relationships, the
Company values all derivative instruments on a consistent basis with the hedged item.
Upon termination, gains and losses on instruments are included in the carrying values of
the underlying hedged items and are amortized over the remaining lives of the hedged
items as adjustments to investment income or benefits from the hedged items. Any
unamortized gains or losses are recognized when the underlying hedged items are sold.
The unrealized gains and losses from derivatives not designated as accounting hedges are
reported at fair value through surplus. Upon termination, interest related gains and losses
are included in IMR and are amortized over the remaining lives of the derivatives; other
gains and losses are added to the AVR. The Company enters into the following
derivatives:
 
§ Interest rate swaps: Interest rate swaps are used to manage the interest rate risk in
  the Company’s fixed maturity portfolio, as well as the Company’s liabilities.
  Interest rate swaps represent contracts that require the exchange of cash flows at
  regular interim periods, typically monthly or quarterly. The net interest effect of
  such swap transactions is reported as an adjustment of interest income from the
  hedged items as incurred.
 
§ Credit default swaps and total return swaps are utilized to replicate the investment
  characteristics of permissible investments using the derivative in conjunction with
  other investments. Replicated (synthetic) assets filed with the NAIC SVO result in
  both the derivative and cash instrument being carried at amortized cost. The
  replication practices are in accordance with SSAP No. 86.
 
§ Credit default swaps: Credit default swaps are used to reduce the credit loss
  exposure with respect to certain assets that the Company owns, or to assume credit
  exposure on certain assets that the Company does not own. Payments are made to or
  received from the counterparty at specified intervals and represents amounts for the
  purchase or sale of credit protection. In the event of a default on the underlying
  credit exposure, the Company will either receive an additional payment (purchased

 

16

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

  credit protection) or will be required to make an additional payment (sold credit
  protection) equal to par minus recovery value of the swap contract.
 
§ Futures: The Company utilizes futures contracts in a dynamic hedge of their
  variable annuity products.
 
§ Options: Call options are used to hedge against an increase in the various equity
  indices. Such increase may result in increased payments to contract holders of fixed
  indexed annuity contracts, and the options offset this increased expense. Put options
  are used to hedge the liability associated with embedded derivatives in certain
  variable annuity contracts and as part of a hedging program designed to mitigate the
  impact of potential declines in equity markets and their impact on regulatory
  capital. Options are reported at fair value.
 
Contract loans are reported at unpaid principal balances.
 
The Company does not currently engage in reverse repurchase agreements and reverse
dollar repurchase agreements, but has in prior years. Such arrangements typically meet
the requirements to be accounted for as financings. For both reverse repurchase
agreements and reverse dollar repurchase agreements, company policies require that at all
times during the respective agreement term, cash or other collateral types obtained is
sufficient to allow the Company to find substantially all of the cost of purchasing
replacement assets from others. Cash collateral received is used for general liquidity
purposes and the offsetting collateral liability is included in borrowed money on the
Balance Sheets.
 
The Company engages in securities lending whereby certain domestic bonds from its
portfolio are loaned to other institutions for short periods of time. Collateral, primarily
cash, which is in excess of the fair value of the loaned securities, is deposited by the
borrower with a lending agent, and retained and invested by the lending agent to generate
additional income for the Company. The Company does not have access to the collateral.
The Company’s policy requires a minimum of 102% of the fair value of securities loaned
to be maintained as collateral. The fair value of the loaned securities is monitored on a
daily basis with additional collateral obtained or refunded as the fair value fluctuates.
Short term investments are reported at amortized cost which approximates fair value.
Short term investments include investments with maturities between one year and three
months at the date of acquisition.
 
Partnership interests, which are included in other invested assets, are reported at the
underlying audited GAAP equity of the investee. Changes in surplus from distributions
are reported in investment income.
 
Realized capital gains and losses are determined using the first in first out method.

Cash on hand includes cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are short term investments that
are both readily convertible to cash and have an original maturity date of three months or
less.
 
Aggregate Reserve for Life Policies and Contracts: Life, annuity, and accident and health
reserves are developed by actuarial methods and are determined based on published
tables using statutorily specified interest rates and valuation methods that will provide, in
the aggregate, reserves that are greater than or equal to the minimum or guaranteed policy
cash value or the amounts required by law. Interest rates range from 2.25% to 8.75% for
2010.
 
The Company waives the deduction of deferred fractional premiums upon the death of
the insured. It is the Company’s practice to return a pro rata portion of any premium paid
beyond the policy month of death, although it is not contractually required to do so for
certain issues.
 
The methods used in valuation of substandard policies are as follows:
 
For life, endowment and term policies issued substandard, the standard reserve during the
premium paying period is increased by 50% of the gross annual extra premium. Standard
reserves are held on Paid-Up Limited Pay contracts.
 
For reinsurance accepted with table rating, the reserve established is a multiple of the
standard reserve corresponding to the table rating.
 
For reinsurance with flat extra premiums, the standard reserve is increased by 50% of the
flat extra.
 
The amount of insurance in force for which the gross premiums are less than the net
premiums, according to the standard of valuation required by the New York Insurance
Department, is $18.3 billion and $18.4 billion at December 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively. The amount of premium deficiency reserves for policies on which gross
premiums are less than the net premiums is $83.0 and $105.2 at December 31, 2010 and
2009, respectively. The Company anticipates investment income as a factor in the
premium deficiency calculation in accordance with SSAP No. 54, Individual and Group
Accident and Health Contracts.
 
The tabular interest has been determined from the basic data for the calculation of policy
reserves for all direct ordinary life insurance and for the portion of group life insurance
classified as group Section 79. The method of determination of tabular interest of funds
not involving life contingencies is as follows: current year reserves, plus payments, less
prior year reserves, less funds added.

Reinsurance: Reinsurance premiums, commissions, expense reimbursements, and
reserves related to reinsured business are accounted for on a basis consistent with those
used in accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of the reinsurance
contracts. Reserves are based on the terms of the reinsurance contracts and are consistent
with the risks assumed. Premiums and benefits ceded to other companies have been
reported as a reduction of premium revenue and benefits expense. Amounts applicable to
reinsurance ceded for reserves and unpaid claim liabilities have been reported as
reductions of these items, and expense allowances received in connection with
reinsurance ceded have been reflected in operations.
 
Electronic Data Processing Equipment: Electronic data processing equipment is carried
at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation for major classes of such assets is
calculated on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset.
 
Participating Insurance: Participating business approximates less than 2.0% of the
Company’s ordinary life insurance in force and 5.3% of premium income. The amount of
dividends to be paid to participating policyholders is determined annually by the Board of
Directors. Amounts allocable to participating policyholders are based on published
dividend projections or expected dividend scales. Dividends expense of $0.9, $0.9 and
$0.8 was incurred in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
Benefit Plans: The Company, through its parent or affiliates, provides noncontributory
retirement plans for substantially all employees and certain agents. Pension costs are
charged to operations as contributions are made to the plans. The Company also provides
a contributory retirement plan for substantially all employees.
 
Nonadmitted Assets: Nonadmitted assets are summarized as follows:

 

    December 31  
    2010   2009
    (In Thousands)
Deferred federal income taxes $ 74,480 $ 79,943
Agents’ debit balances   319   329
Deferred and uncollected premiums   1,316   1,914
Other   6,983   5,584
Total nonadmitted assets $ 83,098 $ 87,770

 

Changes in nonadmitted assets are generally reported directly in unassigned surplus as an
increase or decrease in nonadmitted assets.
 
Claims and Claims Adjustment Expenses: Claims expenses represent the estimated
ultimate net cost of all reported and unreported claims incurred through December 31,
2010. The Company does not discount claims and claims adjustment expense reserves.
Such estimates are based on actuarial projections applied to historical claim payment

data. Such liabilities are considered to be reasonable and adequate to discharge the
Company’s obligations for claims incurred but unpaid as of December 31, 2010.
 
Guaranteed Benefits: For variable annuity guarantees, Actuarial Guideline 43 – Variable
Annuity Commissioners Annuity Reserve Valuation Method (“AG43”), is followed.
This guideline interprets how to apply the NAIC Commissioners’ Annuity Reserve
Valuation Method to Variable Annuities. The greater of the result under a single
deterministic “Standard Scenario” and the average of the most severe 30% of randomly
generated stochastic scenarios is held. Both reinsurance and hedging are also reflected.
Taxes are not incorporated. All assumptions for the Standard Scenario are prescribed. For
the stochastic scenarios, equity market returns must meet a calibration test. All other
assumptions are set by the actuary using prudent best-estimates. AG43 replaces Actuarial
Guidelines 34 and Reg 128 for Variable Annuities effective December 31, 2009. Per
AG43, the reserve as of January 1, 2009 shall be the sum of the reserves from the asset
adequacy analysis requirements in AG34 and Reg 128. Therefore, there was no
cumulative effect of adopting AG 43 in 2009. Where the application of AG43 produces
higher reserves that the Company had otherwise established under AG 34 and Reg 128,
the Company may request a grade-in period, not to exceed three years, from the
Domiciliary Commissioner (“Commissioner”). The grading shall be done only on
reserves on the contracts in-force as of the current year. The reserves under the old basis
and the new basis shall be compared each year with two-thirds of the difference
subtracted from the reserve under the new basis in the current year and one-third of the
difference subtracted from the new basis in the upcoming year. The Company did not
elect the grade-in provision, therefore reserves at December 31, 2010 and 2009 reflect the
full impact of the initial adoption of AG43.
 
Separate Accounts: Most separate account assets and liabilities held by the Company
represent funds held for the benefit of the Company’s variable life and annuity policy and
contract holders who bear all of the investment risk associated with the policies. Such
policies are of a non-guaranteed nature. All net investment experience, positive or
negative, is attributed to the policy and contract holders’ account values. The assets and
liabilities of these accounts are carried at fair value and are legally segregated and are not
subject to claims that arise out of any other business of the Company.
 
Reserves related to the Company’s mortality risk are included in life and annuity
reserves. These reserves include reserves for guaranteed minimum death benefits (before
reinsurance) that totaled $5.9 and $20.8 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
The operations of the separate accounts are not included in the accompanying financial
statements.

 

2 . Permitted Statutory Basis Accounting Practices
 
    The financial statements of the Company are presented on the basis of accounting
    practices prescribed or permitted by the New York Insurance Department. The New York
    Insurance Department recognizes only statutory accounting practices prescribed or

    permitted by the State of New York for determining and reporting the financial condition
    and results of operations of an insurance company and for determining its solvency under
    the New York Insurance Laws. The NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual
    has been adopted as a component of prescribed or permitted practices by the State of
    New York. The New York Commissioner of Insurance has the right to permit other
    specific practices that deviate from prescribed practices.        
 
    The Company is required to identify those significant accounting practices that are
    permitted, and obtain written approval of the practices from the New York Insurance
    Department. As of December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, the Company had no such
    permitted accounting practices.

The Company does not originate or purchase subprime or Alt-A whole-loan mortgages.
The Company does have exposure to Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities (“RMBS”)
and asset-backed securities (“ABS”). Subprime lending is the origination of loans to
customers with weaker credit profiles. The Company defines Alt-A Loans to include
residential mortgage loans to customers who have strong credit profiles but lack some
prime element(s), such as documentation to substantiate income. Commencing in the
fourth quarter of 2007, the Company expanded its definition of Alt-A loans to include
residential mortgage loans to borrowers that would otherwise be classified as prime but

whose loan structure provides repayment options to the borrower that increase the risk of
default. The Company classifies any securities backed by residential mortgage collateral
not clearly identifiable as prime or subprime into the Alt-A category.
 
The market for securities collateralized by subprime mortgages has been in a period of
extended distress and uncertainty with regards to credit performance. Underlying
collateral has continued to reflect the problems associated with a housing market that has
seen substantial price declines and an employment market that has declined significantly
and remained under stress. Credit spreads have widened meaningfully from issuance and
rating agency downgrades have been widespread and severe within the sector. Over the
course of 2009 and 2010, price transparency and liquidity for bonds backed by subprime
mortgages have improved with reduced volatility across broader risk markets. In
managing it risk exposure to subprime mortgages, ING takes into account collateral
performance and structural characteristics associated with its various positions. It
constructs various scenarios to project forward looking cash flows for each bond. ING’s
views are updated quarterly to ensure other than temporary impairments are properly
recorded.

Transfer of Alt-A RMBS Participation Interest
 
On January 26, 2009, ING announced it reached an agreement, for itself and on behalf of
certain ING affiliates, with the Dutch State on an Illiquid Assets Back-up Facility (the
“Back-up Facility”) covering 80% of ING’s Alt-A residential mortgage-backed securities
(“Alt-A RMBS”). Under the terms of the Back-up Facility, a full credit risk transfer to
the Dutch State was realized on 80% of ING’s Alt-A RMBS owned by ING Bank, FSB
and ING affiliates within ING Insurance Americas with a book value of $36.0 billion.
The Company did not participate in this portion of the Back-up Facility. As a result of
the risk transfer, the Dutch State will participate in 80% of any results of the ING Alt-A
RMBS portfolio. The risk transfer to the Dutch State took place at a discount of 10% of
par value. In addition, under the Back-up Facility, other fees were paid both by ING
affiliates and the Dutch State. Each ING company participating in the ING-Dutch State
Transaction remains the legal owner of 100% of its Alt-A RMBS portfolio and will

 

25

remain exposed to 20% of any results on the portfolio. The ING-Dutch State Transaction
closed on March 31, 2009, with the affiliate participation conveyance and risk transfer to
the Dutch State described in the succeeding paragraph taking effect as of January 26,
2009.
 
In a second transaction, known as the Step 1 Cash Transfer, a portion of the Company’s
Alt-A RMBS which had a book value of approximately $65.0 was sold for cash to an
affiliate, Lion II Custom Investments LLC (“Lion II”). Immediately thereafter, Lion II
sold to ING Direct Bancorp the purchased securities (the “Step 2 Cash Transfer”).
Contemporaneous with the Step 2 Cash Transfer, ING Direct Bancorp included such
purchased securities as part of its Alt-A RMBS portfolio sale to the Dutch State. The
Step 1 Cash Transfer closed on March 31, 2009 contemporaneous with the closing of the
ING-Dutch Transaction.
 
Since the Company had the intent to sell as of December 31, 2008, a portion of its Alt-A
RMBS as part of the Step 1 Cash Transfer, the Company evaluated the securities for
impairment under INT 06-07: Definition of Phrase “Other Than Temporary” and SSAP
No. 43, “Loan-backed and Structured Securities.” Per SSAP No. 43, the book value of
the other-than-temporary impaired security must be written down to the estimated
undiscounted future cash flows. In applying of SSAP No. 43, the Company considered
the estimated undiscounted future cash flows for the impairment to be the remaining
undiscounted cash flows on the security over its expected life. Since the estimated
undiscounted future cash flow from these securities exceeded the carrying value of the
securities at December 31, 2008, no impairment was recorded. The Company recorded a
realized loss of $4.5 related to this transaction during the first quarter of 2009. See the
ING Restructuring Plan disclosure in Commitments and Contingencies for more on this
transaction.
 
Mortgage Loans
 
All mortgage loans are evaluated by seasoned underwriters, including an appraisal of
loan-specific credit quality, property characteristics, and market trends, and assigned a
quality rating using the Company’s internally developed quality rating system. As of
December 31, 2010 and 2009, the distribution based upon this quality rating system is as
follows:

Loan performance is continuously monitored on a loan-specific basis through the review
of borrower submitted appraisals, operating statements, rent revenues and annual
inspection reports, among other items. This review ensures properties are performing at a
consistent and acceptable level to secure the debt.
 
All commercial mortgages are rated for the purpose of quantifying the level of risk.
Those loans with higher risk are placed on a watch list and are closely monitored for
collateral deficiency or other credit events that may lead to a potential loss of principal or
interest. If the value of any mortgage loan is determined to be impaired (i.e., when it is
probable that the Company will be unable to collect on all amounts due according to the
contractual terms of the loan agreement), the carrying value of the mortgage loan is
reduced to either the present value of expected cash flows from the loan, discounted at
the loan’s effective interest rate, or fair value of the collateral. As of December 31, 2010
and 2009, the Company held no impaired mortgage loans. For the same periods, no
commercial mortgage loans were past due.
 
The maximum and minimum lending rates for long term mortgage loans during 2010
were 5.5% and 5.5%. Fire insurance is required on all properties covered by mortgage
loans and must at least equal the excess of the loan over the maximum loan which would
be permitted by law on the land without the buildings. Generally all risk coverage at
replacement cost is required for a property securing real estate finance investments.
 
As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company held no mortgages with interest more
than 180 days overdue. No interest was past due as of December 31, 2010 and 2009.
 
The Company had no impaired mortgage loans for 2010, 2009 or 2008.
 
Net Realized Capital Gains and Losses
 
Realized capital gains (losses) are reported net of federal income taxes and amounts

    Low-Income Housing Tax Credits
 
    The Company had a carrying value of $0.4 in Low-Income Housing Tax Credits
    (“LIHTC”) at December 31, 2010. The tax credits are projected to expire in 2018. The
    Company is indifferent to the holding period of the investments as the credits are
    guaranteed by a third party. The Company is unaware of any current regulatory reviews
    of the LIHTC property.
 
 
4 . Derivative Financial Instruments Held for Purposes Other than Trading
 
    Premiums paid for the purchase of interest rate contracts are included in other invested
    assets on the Balance Sheets and are being amortized to interest expense over the
    remaining terms of the contracts or in a manner consistent with the financial instruments
    being hedged.
 
    Amounts paid or received, if any, from such contracts are included in interest expense or
    income on the Statements of Operations. Accrued amounts payable to or receivable from
    counterparties are included in other liabilities or other invested assets. Gains or losses
    realized as a result of early terminations of interest rate contracts are amortized to
    investment income over the remaining term of the items being hedged to the extent the
    hedge is considered to be effective; otherwise, they are recognized upon termination.
 
    Derivatives that are designated as being in an effective hedging relationship are reported
    in a manner that is consistent with the hedged asset or liability. Derivative contracts that
    are matched or otherwise designated to be associated with other financial instruments are
    recorded at fair value if the related financial instruments mature, are sold, or are
    otherwise terminated or if the interest rate contracts cease to be effective hedges.
    Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated in effective hedging relationships
    are recorded as unrealized gains and losses in surplus.
 
    The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by counterparties
    on certain derivative contracts; however, the Company does not anticipate
    nonperformance by any of these counterparties. The amount of such exposure is
    generally the unrealized gains in such contracts. The Company manages the potential
    credit exposure from interest rate contracts through careful evaluation of the
    counterparties’ credit standing, collateral agreements, and master netting agreements.
 
    The Company sells credit default swap protection, in conjunction with other investments,
    to replicate the income characteristics of otherwise permitted investments. The standard
    contract is five or seven years. In the event of default of the reference entity, the
    Company would be required to pay the notional amount of contract. At December 31,
    2010, the total amount would be $50.0.

7 . Employee Benefit Plans
 
    Defined Benefit Plan: ING North America Insurance Corporation (“ING North
    America”) sponsors the ING Americas Retirement Plan (the “Qualified Plan”), effective
    as of December 31, 2001. Effective January 1, 2009, the Qualified Plan is no longer
    available to new employees or re-hires. Employees of ING North America and its
    subsidiaries and affiliates (excluding certain employees) hired prior to January 1, 2009
    will continue to be eligible to participate in the Qualified Plan.
 
    The Qualified Plan is a tax qualified defined benefit plan, the benefits of which are
    guaranteed (within certain specified legal limits) by the Pension Benefit Guaranty
    Corporation (“PBGC”). As of January 1, 2002, each participant in the Qualified Plan
    (except for certain specified employees) earns a benefit under a final average
    compensation formula. The costs allocated to the Company for its employees’
    participation in the Qualified Plan were $2.1, $1.8 and $1.0 for 2010, 2009 and 2008,
    respectively. ING North America is responsible for all Qualified Plan liabilities.
 
    Defined Contributions Plans: ING North America sponsors the ING Savings Plan and
    ESOP (the “Savings Plan”). Substantially all employees of ING North America and its
    subsidiaries and affiliates (excluding certain employees) are eligible to participate,
    including the Company’s employees other than Company agents. The Savings Plan is a
    tax qualified profit sharing and stock bonus plan, which includes an employee stock
    ownership plan (“ESOP”) component. Savings Plan benefits are not guaranteed by the
    Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC’). The Savings Plan allows eligible
    participants to defer into the Savings Plan a specified percentage of eligible compensation
    on a pretax basis. ING North America matches such pretax contributions, up to a
    maximum of 6% of eligible compensation. All matching contributions are subject to a 4
    year graded vesting schedule (although certain specified participants are subject to a 5
    year graded vesting schedule). All contributions made to the Savings Plan are subject to
    certain limits imposed by applicable law. Expense for matching contribution allocated to
    the Company was $0.7 and $0.8 for 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
    Other Benefit Plans: In addition to providing retirement plan benefits, the Company, in
    conjunction with ING North America, provides certain supplemental retirement benefits
    to eligible employees and health care and life insurance benefits to retired employees and
    other eligible dependents. The supplemental retirement plan includes a nonqualified
    defined benefit pension plan, and a nonqualified defined contribution plan, which means
    all benefits are payable from the general assets of the Company. The postretirement
    health care plan is contributory, with retiree contribution levels adjusted annually. The
    life insurance plan provides a flat amount of noncontributory coverage and optional
    contributory coverage
 
    Effective October 1, 2009, the Company no longer subsidizes medical premium costs for
    early retirees. This change does not impact any participant currently retired and receiving

    coverage under the plan or any employee who is eligible for coverage under the plan and
    whose employment ended before October 1, 2009.
 
8 . Separate Accounts

    benefit of certain policy and contract holders who bear the investment risk. Revenues and

The valuation allowance adjustment to gross deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2010
and 2009 was $2.8 and $1.4, respectively. The net change in the total valuation allowance
adjustment for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was an increase of $1.4 and
$1.4, respectively due to the application of SSAP 10R. The valuation allowance
adjustment at 2010 and 2009 is related to capital losses and foreign tax credits as it is
unlikely that the Company will be able to realize sufficient taxable capital gain income to
offset taxable capital losses or utilize foreign tax credits.

The change in deferred income taxes reported in surplus before the consideration of
nonadmitted assets is comprised of the following components:

    December 31

The Company had $0.0, $0.6 and $0.6 of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31,
2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively, that would affect the Company’s effective tax rate if
recognized.

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax
benefits in Federal income taxes and Federal income tax expense on the Balance Sheets
and Statements of Operations, respectively. The Company had accrued interest of $0.0
and $0.1 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 respectively. The decrease during the period
ended December 31, 2010 is primarily related to the settlement of the 2004-2008 federal
audits.

In September 2010, the IRS completed its examination of the Company’s returns through
tax year 2008. The provision for the year ended December 31, 2010 reflected non-
recurring favorable adjustments, resulting from a reduction in the tax liability that was no
longer deemed necessary based upon the results of the IRS examination, monitoring the
activities of the IRS with respect to certain issues with other taxpayers and the merits of
the Company’s positions.

    The Company is currently under audit by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for tax
    years 2009 and 2010 and it is expected that the examination of tax year 2009 will be
    finalized within the next twelve months. Upon finalization of the IRS examination it is
    reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits will increase by up to $0.2. The
    Company and the IRS have agreed to participate in the Compliance Assurance Program
    (“CAP”) for tax years 2009 and 2010.
 
10 . Reinsurance
 
    The Company is involved in both ceded and assumed reinsurance with other companies
    for the purpose of diversifying risk and limiting exposure on larger risks. To the extent
    that the assuming companies become unable to meet their obligations under these
    treaties, the Company remains contingently liable to its policyholders for the portion
    reinsured. To minimize its exposure to significant losses from retrocessionaire
    insolvencies, the Company evaluates the financial condition of the retrocessionaire and
    monitors concentrations of credit risk.

 

    The Company’s ceded reinsurance arrangements reduced certain items in the
    accompanying financial statements by the following amounts:    
 
          Year ended December 31  
        2010   2009   2008
            (In Thousands)  
    Premiums $ 121,699 $ 123,288 $ 135,242
    Benefits paid or provided   51,495   38,122   47,499
    Policy and contract liabilities at year end   519,230   435,653   356,412
 
    The Company does not have any reinsurance agreements in effect under which the
    reinsurer may unilaterally cancel the agreement.        
 
    Assumed premiums amounted to $0, $2.7 and $5.4 for 2010, 2009 and 2008,
    respectively.            
 
11 . Capital and Surplus            
 
    Under New York insurance regulations, the Company is required to maintain a minimum
    total capital and surplus of $6.0. Additionally, the amount of dividends which can be paid
    by the Company to its shareholder without prior approval of the Superintendent of the
    State of New York is limited to the lesser of the net gain from operations excluding
    realized capital gains or 10% of surplus at December 31 of the preceding year.  
 
    On November 12, 2008, ING issued to the Dutch State non-voting Tier 1 securities for a
    total consideration of Euro 10 billion. On February 24, 2009, $2.2 billion was contributed
    to direct and indirect insurance company subsidiaries of ING AIH, of which $90.0 was
    contributed to the Company, effective for December 31, 2008. The contribution was

 

48

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)
 
    comprised of the proceeds from the investment by the Dutch government and the
    redistribution of currently existing capital within ING. The Company did not pay
    dividends to ReliaStar during 2010 or 2009. The New York Insurance Department does
    not require notice or approval for ordinary dividends.
 
    Life and health insurance companies are subject to certain Risk Based Capital (“RBC”)
    requirements as specified by the NAIC. Under those requirements, the amount of capital
    and surplus maintained by a life and health insurance company is to be determined based
    on the various risk factors related to it. At December 31, 2010, the Company meets the
    RBC requirements.
 
12 . Fair Values of Financial Instruments
 
    In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates
    using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly
    affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash
    flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by
    comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in
    immediate settlement of the financial instrument. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value
    amounts presented herein do not represent the underlying value of the Company.
 
    Life insurance liabilities that contain mortality risk and all nonfinancial instruments have
    been excluded from the disclosure requirements. However, the fair values of liabilities
    under all insurance contracts are taken into consideration in the Company’s overall
    management of interest rate risk, such that the Company’s exposure to changing interest
    rates is minimized through the matching of investment maturities with amounts due under
    insurance contracts.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair
value disclosures for financial instruments in the accompanying financial statements and
notes thereto:

Cash, cash equivalents and short term investments: The carrying amounts reported in
the accompanying Balance Sheets for these financial instruments approximate their
fair values.

Bonds and equity securities: The Company utilizes a number of valuation
methodologies to determine the fair values of its bonds, preferred stocks and common
stocks reported herein in conformity with the concepts of “exit price” and the fair
value measurement as prescribed in SSAP No. 100, Fair Value Measurements
(“SSAP 100”). Valuations are obtained from third party commercial pricing services,
brokers, and industry-standard vendor-provided software that models the value based
on market observable inputs. The valuations obtained from brokers and third-party
commercial pricing services are non-binding. The valuations are reviewed and
validated monthly through the internal valuation committee price variance review,

50

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

comparisons to internal pricing models, back testing to recent trades, or monitoring of
trading volumes.
 
Fair values of privately placed bonds are determined using a matrix-based pricing
model and are classified as Level 2 assets. The model considers the current level of
risk-free interest rates, current corporate spreads, the credit quality of the issuer, and
cash flow characteristics of the security. Also considered are factors such as the net
worth of the borrower, the value of collateral, the capital structure of the borrower,
the presence of guarantees, and the Company’s evaluation of the borrower’s ability to
compete in its relevant market. Using this data, the model generates estimated market
values, which the Company considers reflective of the fair value of each privately
placed bond.
 
For securities not actively traded, fair values are estimated using values obtained from
independent pricing services or, in the case of private placement investments, are
estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows. The discount rates used
vary as a function of factors such as yield, credit quality, and maturity, which fall
within a range between 1.15% and 30% over the total portfolio. Effective December
31, 2010, the Company statutory fair values represent the amount that would be
received to sell securities at the measurement date (i.e. “exit value” concept).
 
Mortgage loans: Estimated fair values for commercial real estate loans were
generated using a discounted cash flow approach. Loans in good standing are
discounted using interest rates determined by U.S. Treasury yields on December 31
and spreads applied on new loans with similar characteristics. The amortizing features
of all loans are incorporated in the valuation. Where data on option features is
available, option values are determined using a binomial valuation method, and are
incorporated into the mortgage valuation. Restructured loans are valued in the same
manner; however, these loans were discounted at a greater spread to reflect increased
risk.
 
Derivative financial instruments: Fair values for derivative financial instruments are
based on broker/dealer valuations or on internal discounted cash flow pricing models,
taking into account current cash flow assumptions and the counterparties’ credit
standing.
 
The carrying value of all other financial instruments approximates their fair value.
 
Included in various investment related line items in the financial statements are certain
financial instruments carried at fair value. Other financial instruments are periodically
measured at fair value, such as when impaired, or, for certain bonds and preferred stock
when carried at the lower of cost or market.

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

The fair value of an asset is the amount at which that asset could be bought or sold in a
current transaction between willing parties, that is, other than in a forced or liquidation
sale. The fair value of a liability is the amount at which that liability could be incurred or
settled in a current transaction between willing parties, that is, other than in a forced or
liquidation sale.
 
Fair values are based on quoted market prices when available. When market prices are
not available, fair value is generally estimated using discounted cash flow analyses,
incorporating current market inputs for similar financial instruments with comparable
terms and credit quality (matrix pricing). In instances where there is little or no market
activity for the same or similar instruments, the Company estimates fair value using
methods, models and assumptions that management believes market participants would
use to determine a current transaction price. These valuation techniques involve some
level of management estimation and judgment which becomes significant with
increasingly complex instruments or pricing models. Where appropriate, adjustments are
included to reflect the risk inherent in a particular methodology, model or input used.
 
The Company's financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value have been classified,
for disclosure purposes, based on a hierarchy defined by SSAP 100 and ASC Subtopic
820-10, formerly FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements.
 
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs
(Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the
hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant
to the fair value measurement of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities recorded
at fair value on the Balance Sheets are categorized as follows:
 
§ Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active
  market.
§ Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable
  either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
  Level 2 inputs include the following:
  a) Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
  b) Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active
    markets;
  c) Inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable; and
  d) Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market
    data through correlation or other means.
§ Level 3 - Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both
  unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These
  valuations, whether derived internally or obtained from a third party, use critical
  assumptions that are not widely available to estimate market participant
  expectations in valuing the asset or liability.

Bonds: Securities that are carried at fair value on the balance sheet are classified as Level
2 or Level 3. Level 2 bond prices are obtained through several commercial pricing
services, which incorporate a variety of market observable information in their valuation
techniques, including benchmark yields, broker-dealer quotes, credit quality, issuer
spreads, bids, offers and other reference data to provide estimated fair values. Privately
placed bond fair value are determined using a matrix-based pricing model and are
classified as Level 2 assets. When a price cannot be obtained from a commercial pricing
service, independent broker quotes are solicited. Securities priced using independent
broker quotes are classified as Level 3. Over the course of 2009 and 2010, price
transparency and liquidity for bonds backed by subprime mortgages have improved with
reduced volatility across broader risk markets. The Company monitors the market for
subprime and continues to categorize these securities as Level 3 in the valuation
hierarchy.

Common Stock: Fair values of publicly traded equity securities are based upon quoted
market price and are classified as Level 1 assets. Other equity securities, typically private

54


 

RELIASTAR LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

equities or equity securities not traded on an exchange, are valued by other sources such
as analytics or brokers and are classified as Level 3 assets.
Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments: The carrying amounts for cash
reflect the assets’ fair values. The fair values for cash equivalents and short-term
investments are determined based on quoted market prices. These assets are classified as
Level 1.
 
Derivatives: The carrying amounts for these financial instruments, which can be assets or
liabilities, reflect the fair value of the assets and liabilities. Certain derivatives are carried
at fair value (on the Balance Sheets), which is determined using the Company’s
derivative accounting system in conjunction with observable key financial data, such as
yield curves, exchange rates, Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) 500 Index prices, and London
Inter Bank Offered Rates (“LIBOR”), which are obtained from third party sources and
uploaded into the system. For those derivatives that are unable to be valued by the
accounting system, the Company typically utilizes values established by third party
brokers. Counterparty credit risk is considered and incorporated in the Company’s
valuation process through counterparty credit rating requirements and monitoring of
overall exposure. The Company’s own credit risk is monitored by comparison of credit
ratings from national rating services. It is the Company’s policy to transact only with
investment grade counterparties with a credit rating of A- or better. Valuations for the
Company’s futures contracts are based on unadjusted quoted prices from an active
exchange and, therefore, are classified as Level 1. The Company also has certain Options
that are priced using models that primarily use market observable inputs, but contain
inputs that are not observable to market participants, which have been classified as Level
3. However, all other derivative instruments are valued based on market observable
inputs and are classified as Level 2.
 
Assets held in separate accounts: Assets held in separate accounts are reported at the
quoted fair values of the underlying investments in the separate accounts. Mutual funds,
short-term investments and cash are based upon a quoted market price and are included in
Level 1.The underlying instruments in bonds have valuations that are obtained from
third-party commercial pricing services and brokers and are classified in the fair value
hierarchy consistent with the policies described above for fixed maturities.
 
The Company did not have any security transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during
2010.

The transfers out of Level 3 during the year ended December 31, 2010 are primarily due
to the Company's use of commercial pricing services to value certain multiclass
residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”). These services incorporate a variety of
market observable information in their valuation techniques, including benchmark yields,
broker-dealer quotes, credit quality, issuer spreads, bids, offers and other reference data
and have been classified as Level 2. These Multiclass RMBS had previously been valued
by using the average of broker quotes when more than one broker quote was provided.

13 . Commitments and Contingencies
 
    Investment Purchase Commitments: As part of its overall investment strategy, the
    Company has entered into agreements to purchase securities of $6.7 and $3.9 at
    December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company is also committed to provide
    additional capital contributions to partnerships of $10.4 and $12.1 at December 31, 2010
    and 2009, respectively.
 
    Operating Leases: The Company is party to certain cost sharing agreements with other
    affiliated ING United States companies. Included in these cost sharing arrangements is
    rent expense, which is allocated to the Company in accordance with systematic cost
    allocation arrangements. The Company incurred minimal rent expense during years
    ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 under this cost sharing methodology.
 
    The Company does not have any minimum aggregate rental commitments under the cost
    sharing arrangements and service agreements. The Company does not have any future
    minimum lease payment receivables under the cost sharing arrangements and service
    agreements.
 
    The Company is not involved in any sale leaseback transactions.
 
    Legal Proceedings: The Company is involved in threatened or pending
    lawsuits/arbitrations arising from the normal conduct of business. Due to the climate in
    insurance and business litigation/arbitration, suits against the Company sometimes
    include claims for substantial compensatory, consequential or punitive damages and other
    types of relief. Moreover, certain claims are asserted as class actions, purporting to
    represent a group of similarly situated individuals. While it is not possible to forecast the
    outcome of such lawsuits/arbitrations, in light of existing insurance, reinsurance and
    established reserves, it is the opinion of management that the disposition of such
    lawsuits/arbitrations will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s
    operations or financial position.
 
    Regulatory Matters: As with many financial services companies, the Company and its
    affiliates periodically receive informal and formal requests for information from various
    state and federal governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations in connection
    with inquiries and investigations of the products and practices of the Company or the
    financial services industry. Some of these investigations and inquiries could result in
    regulatory action against the Company. The potential outcome of such action is difficult
    to predict but could subject the Company or its affiliates to adverse consequences,
    including, but not limited to, settlement payments, penalties, fines, and other financial
    liability. It is not currently anticipated that the outcome of any such action will have a
    material adverse effect on ING or ING’s U.S.-based operations, including the Company.
    It is the practice of the Company and its affiliates to cooperate fully in these matters.

In addition to responding to governmental and regulatory requests on fund trading issues,
ING management, on its own initiative, conducted, through special counsel and a
national accounting firm, an extensive internal review of mutual fund trading in ING
insurance, retirement, and mutual fund products. The goal of this review was to identify
any instances of inappropriate trading in those products by third parties or by ING
investment professionals and other ING personnel.
 
The internal review identified several isolated arrangements allowing third parties to
engage in frequent trading of mutual funds within the variable insurance and mutual fund
products of certain affiliates of the Company, and identified other circumstances where
frequent trading occurred despite measures taken by ING intended to combat market
timing. Each of the arrangements has been terminated and disclosed to regulators, to the
independent trustees of ING Funds (U.S.) and in Company reports previously filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended.
 
Action may be taken by regulators with respect to certain ING affiliates before
investigations relating to fund trading are completed. The potential outcome of such
action is difficult to predict but could subject certain affiliates to adverse consequences,
including, but not limited to, settlement payments, penalties, and other financial liability.
It is not currently anticipated, however, that the actual outcome of any such action will
have a material adverse effect on ING or ING’s U.S. based operations, including the
Company.
 
Liquidity: The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are product charges, investment
income, premiums, proceeds from the maturity and sale of investments, and capital
contributions. Primary uses of these funds are payments of commissions and operating
expenses, interest credits, investment purchases, and contract maturities, death benefits,
withdrawals, and surrenders.
 
The Company’s liquidity position is managed by maintaining adequate levels of liquid
assets, such as cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments. Asset/liability
management is integrated into many aspects of the Company’s operations, including
investment decisions, product development, and determination of crediting rates. As part
of the risk management process, different economic scenarios are modeled, including
cash flow testing required for insurance regulatory purposes, to determine that existing
assets are adequate to meet projected liability cash flows. Key variables in the modeling
process include interest rates, anticipated contract owner behavior, and variable separate
account performance. Contract owners bear the investment risk related to variable
annuity products, subject, in limited cases, to certain minimum guaranteed rates.
 
The fixed account liabilities are supported by a general account portfolio principally
composed of fixed rate investments with matching duration characteristics that can
generate predictable, steady rates of return. The portfolio management strategy for the

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

fixed account considers the assets available-for-sale. This strategy enables the Company
to respond to changes in market interest rates, prepayment risk, relative values of asset
sectors and individual securities and loans, credit quality outlook, and other relevant
factors. The Company’s asset/liability management discipline includes strategies to
minimize exposure to loss as interest rates and economic and market conditions change.
In executing this strategy, the Company uses derivative instruments to manage these
risks. The Company’s derivative counterparties are of high credit quality.
 
During 2009, the Company took certain actions to reduce its exposure to interest rate and
market risks. These actions included reducing guaranteed interest rates for new business,
reducing credited rates on existing business, curtailing sales of some products,
reassessment of the investment strategy with a focus on U.S. Treasury and investment
grade assets, as well as hedging certain funds which previously were not hedged and
continuing a hedging program to mitigate the impact of potential declines in equity
markets and their impact on regulatory capital. During 2010, the Company continued
monitoring these initiatives and their impacts on earnings, capital, and liquidity. The
Company will continue monitoring these initiatives going forward and will determine
whether further actions are necessary.
 
ING Restructuring Plan: On October 26, 2009, ING announced the key components of
the final Restructuring Plan ING submitted to the European Commission (“EC”) as part
of the process to receive EC approval for the state aid granted to ING by the Dutch State
in the form of EUR 10 billion Core Tier 1 securities issued on November 12, 2008 and
the ING-Dutch State Transaction. As part of the Restructuring Plan, ING has agreed to
separate its banking and insurance businesses by 2013. ING intends to achieve this
separation by divestment of its insurance and investment management operations,
including the Company. ING has announced that it will explore all options for
implementing the separation including initial public offerings, sales or combinations
thereof. In November 2009, the Restructuring Plan received formal EC approval and the
separation of insurance and banking operations and other components of the
Restructuring Plan were approved by ING shareholders. ING also reached an agreement
with the Dutch State to alter the repayment terms of the Core Tier 1 securities in order to
facilitate early repayment and ING repurchased in December 2009 EUR 5 billion of the
total EUR 10 billion Core Tier 1 securities issued to the Dutch State. As part of the
Restructuring Plan, ING also agreed to make additional payments to the Dutch State
corresponding to an adjustment of fees for the Back-Up Facility. In total, these extra
payments amounted to a net present value of EUR 1.3 billion, and were recorded by ING
as a one-time pre-tax charge in the fourth quarter of 2009. The terms of the ING-Dutch
State Transaction which closed on March 31, 2009, including the transfer price of the
Alt-A RMBS securities, remained unaltered and the additional payments were not borne
by the Company or any other ING U.S. subsidiaries. In order to finance the repayment of
EUR 5 billion Core Tier 1 securities and the associated costs as well as to mitigate the
capital impact of the additional payments for the Back-Up Facility, ING launched a
capital increase without preferential subscription rights for holders of (bearer depositary

    receipts for) ordinary shares of up to EUR 7.5 billion in November 2009. The rights issue
    was completed in December 2009. Proceeds of the issue in excess of the above amounts
    will be used to strengthen ING’s capital position.
 
    On January 28, 2010, ING announced the filing of its appeal with the General Court of
    the European Union against specific elements of the EC’s decision regarding the ING
    Restructuring Plan. Despite the appeal, ING is committed to executing the formal
    separation of banking and insurance and the divestment of the latter as announced on
    October 26, 2009. In its appeal, ING contests the state aid calculation the EC applied to
    the reduction in repayment premium agreed upon by ING and the Dutch State in
    connection with ING’s December 2009 repayment of the first EUR 5 billion of Core Tier
    1 securities. ING is also appealing the disproportionality of the price leadership
    restrictions imposed on ING with respect to the European financial sector.
 
    On November 10, 2010, ING announced that while the option of one global initial public
    offering (“IPO”) remains open, ING and its U.S. insurance affiliates, including the
    Company, are going to prepare for a base case of two IPOs: one Europe-led IPO and one
    separate U.S.-focused IPO.
 
    On October 27, 2009, subsequent to the announcement of the Restructuring Plan, the
    insurance financial strength ratings of the Company and ING’s other primary U.S.
    insurance companies were downgraded by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. to A2 from
    A1 and by Fitch Ratings Ltd to A- from A.
 
14 . Financing Agreements
 
    The Company maintains a revolving loan agreement with Bank of New York Mellon,
    (“Mellon"). Under this agreement, the Company can borrow up to $30.0 from Mellon.
    Interest on any borrowing accrues at an annual rate equal to: (1) the cost of funds for
    Mellon for the period applicable for the advance plus 0.35% or (2) a rate quoted by
    Mellon to the Company for the borrowing. Under this agreement, the Company incurred
    minimal interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008,
    respectively. Additionally, there were no amounts payable to Mellon at December 31,
    2010 and 2009.
 
    The Company maintains a reciprocal loan agreement with ING AIH to promote efficient
    management of cash and liquidity and to provide for unanticipated short-term cash
    requirements. Under this agreement, which expired and was renewed February 1, 2009,
    the Company and ING AIH can borrow up to 5% of the Company’s net admitted assets
    as of December 31 of the preceding year from one another. Interest on any Company
    borrowing is charged at the rate of ING AIH’s cost of funds for the interest period plus
    0.15%. Interest on any ING AIH borrowings is charged at a rate based on the prevailing
    interest rate of U.S. commercial paper available for purchase with a similar duration. The
    receivable for these loans are reported as an asset in cash and short term investments.

    The payable is recorded in borrowed money. Under this agreement, the Company
    incurred no interest income for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008.
 
    Through this reciprocal loan agreement, the Company had borrowed $175.5 and repaid
    $175.5 in 2010; had no borrowing in 2009, and borrowed $384.0 and repaid $384.0 in
    2008. These borrowings were on a short term basis, at an interest rate that approximated
    current money market rates and excludes borrowings from reverse dollar repurchase
    transactions. Interest expense on borrowed money was minimal during 2010, 2009 and
    2008, respectively.
 
    The Company is the beneficiary of letters of credit totaling $32.4; terms of the letters of
    credit provide for automatic renewal upon anniversary unless otherwise canceled or
    terminated by the ceding company or the letter of credit provider.
 
15 . Related Party Transactions
 
    Cost Sharing Arrangements: Management and services contracts and all cost sharing
    arrangements with other affiliated ING United States companies are allocated among
    companies in accordance with systematic cost allocation methods.
 
    Investment Management: The Company has entered into an investment advisory
    agreement with ING Investment Management, LLC (“IIM”) under which IIM provides
    the Company with investment management services. The Company has entered into an
    administrative services agreement with IIM under which IIM provides the Company with
    asset liability management services. Beginning in 2010, IIM began using competitive
    market rates to bill the Company for both the asset management and ancillary services it
    provides. Total fees under the agreement were approximately $2.7, $2.1, and $2.5 for the
    years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
    Services Agreements: The Company has entered into a services agreement with each of
    its affiliated insurers, ING North America and ING Financial Advisers, LLC (“ING FA”)
    whereby the affiliated insurers, ING North America and ING FA, provide certain
    administrative, management, professional, advisory, consulting and other services to the
    Company. The total expenses incurred for all of these services were $38.5, $38.4 and
    $54.5 for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
    Tax Sharing Agreements: The Company has entered into federal tax sharing agreement
    with members of an affiliated group as defined in Section 1504 of the Internal Revenue
    Code of 1986, as amended. The agreement provides for the manner of calculation and
    the amounts/timing of the payments between the parties as well as other related matters in
    connection with the filing of consolidated federal income tax returns.
 
    Reinsurance: During 2010 and 2009, the Company had no ceded premium or ceded
    reserves to affiliates. During 2008, the Company ceded premium and ceded reserves to
    ReliaStar of $65.8 and $82.6, respectively. The amount of insurance in force ceded to

    ReliaStar was $10,542 at December 31, 2008. The Company realized a deferred gain
    after tax of $40.0 on the 2008 reinsurance transaction.
 
16 . Guaranty Fund Assessments
 
    Insurance companies are assessed the costs of funding the insolvencies of other insurance
    companies by the various state guaranty associations, generally based on the amount of
    premium companies collect in that state. The Company accrues the cost of future
    guaranty fund assessments based on estimates of insurance company insolvencies
    provided by the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty
    Associations and the amount of premiums written in each state. The Company has
    estimated this liability to be $4.1 and $0.2 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009,
    respectively, and has recorded a liability in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the
    Balance Sheets. The Company has also recorded an asset in other assets on the Balance
    Sheets of $0.2 and $0.2 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, for future
    credits to premium taxes for assessments already paid.

    features was $3.0, $3.6 and $3.5 for December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively.

    December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively. The amount of net group health
    premium written by the Company that was subject to retrospective rating features was
    $0.1, $0.1 and $0.1 for December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively.  This

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged
to perform an audit of the Account’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included
consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
the Account’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An
audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2010, by correspondence with the transfer agents
or custodian.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of each of the respective Divisions constituting ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of
New York Separate Account NY-B at December 31, 2010, the results of their operations and changes in
their net assets for the periods disclosed in the financial statements, in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.

RELIASTAR LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK
SEPARATE ACCOUNT NY-B
Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization

ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York Separate Account NY-B (the “Account”)
was established by First Golden American Life Insurance Company of New York (“First
Golden”) to support the operations of variable annuity contracts (“Contracts”). The
Account became a separate account of ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York
(“RLNY” or the “Company”) as a result of the merger of First Golden into RLNY
effective April 1, 2002. RLNY is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of ING America
Insurance Holdings, Inc. (“ING AIH”), an insurance holding company domiciled in the
State of Delaware. ING AIH is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of ING Groep, N.V.
(“ING”), a global financial services holding company based in The Netherlands.

As part of a restructuring plan approved by the European Commission (“EC”), ING has
agreed to separate its banking and insurance businesses by 2013. ING intends to achieve
this separation by divestment of its insurance and investment management operations,
including the Company. ING has announced that it will explore all options for
implementing the separation including one or more initial public offerings (“IPOs”), sales
or a combination thereof. On November 10, 2010, ING announced that while the option
of one global IPO remains open, ING and its U.S. insurance affiliates, including the
Company, are going to prepare for a base case of two IPOs: one Europe-led IPO and one
separate U.S. focused IPO.

Operations of the Account commenced on May 19, 1997. The Account is registered as a
unit investment trust with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended. RLNY provides for variable accumulation and
benefits under the Contracts by crediting annuity considerations to one or more divisions
within the Account or the RLNY fixed separate account, which is not part of the Account,
as directed by the contractowners. The portion of the Account’s assets applicable to
Contracts will not be charged with liabilities arising out of any other business RLNY may
conduct, but obligations of the Account, including the promise to make benefit payments,
are obligations of RLNY. Under applicable insurance law, the assets and liabilities of the
Account are clearly identified and distinguished from the other assets and liabilities of
RLNY.

At December 31, 2010, the Account had, under ING GoldenSelect, ING Empire, ING
Simplicity, ING Architect, and ING Rollover Contracts, 123 investment divisions (the
“Divisions”), 18 of which invest in independently managed mutual funds and 105 of
which invest in mutual fund portfolios managed by an affiliate, either Directed Services
LLC (“DSL”) or ING Investments, LLC (“IIL”). The assets in each Division are invested
in shares of a designated Fund (“Fund”) of various investment trusts (the “Trusts”).

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Account:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from reported results using those
estimates.

Investments

Investments are made in shares of a Division and are recorded at fair value, determined
by the net asset value per share of the respective Division. Investment transactions in each
Division are recorded on the trade date. Distributions of net investment income and
capital gains from each Division are recognized on the ex-distribution date. Realized
gains and losses on redemptions of the shares of the Division are determined on a first-in,
first-out basis. The difference between cost and current market value of investments
owned on the day of measurement is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation
of investments.

Federal Income Taxes

Operations of the Account form a part of, and are taxed with, the total operations of
RLNY, which is taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code.
Earnings and realized capital gains of the Account attributable to the contractowners are
excluded in the determination of the federal income tax liability of RLNY.

Contractowner Reserves

The annuity reserves of the Account are represented by net assets on the Statements of
Assets and Liabilities and are equal to the contractowners’ aggregate account values of
the contractowners invested in the Account Divisions. To the extent that benefits to be
paid to the contractowners exceed their account values, RLNY will contribute additional
funds to the benefit proceeds. Conversely, if amounts allocated exceed amounts required,
transfers may be made to RLNY.

All Contracts in the Account are currently in the accumulation period. Prior to the annuity
date, the Contracts are redeemable for the net cash surrender value of the Contracts.

RELIASTAR LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK
SEPARATE ACCOUNT NY-B
Notes to Financial Statements

    Changes from Principal Transactions
 
    Included in Changes from Principal Transactions on the Statements of Changes in Net
    Assets are items which relate to contractowner activity, including deposits, surrenders and
    withdrawals, benefits, and contract charges. Also included are transfers between the
    fixed account and the Divisions, transfers between Divisions, and transfers to (from)
    RLNY related to gains and losses resulting from actual mortality experience (the full
    responsibility for which is assumed by RLNY). Any net unsettled transactions as of the
    reporting date are included in Payable to related parties on the Statements of Assets and
    Liabilities.
 
    Subsequent Events
 
    The Account has evaluated subsequent events for recognition and disclosure through the
    date the financial statements as of December 31, 2010 and for the years ended
    December 31, 2010 and 2009, were issued.
 
 
3 . Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
 
    Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements
 
    In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting
    Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure (Topic
    820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements,” (“ASU 2010-06”), which
    requires several new disclosures, as well as clarification to existing disclosures, as
    follows:
 
    § Significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and
      the reason for the transfers;
    § Purchases, sales, issuances, and settlement, in the Level 3 fair value measurements
      reconciliation on a gross basis;
    § Fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities (i.e.,
      disaggregated); and
    § Valuation techniques and inputs for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value
      measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3 fair value measurements.
 
    The provisions of ASU 2010-06 were adopted by the Account on January 1, 2010, except
    for the disclosures related to the Level 3 reconciliation, which are effective for fiscal
    years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal
    years. The Account determined, however, that there was no effect on the Account’s
    disclosures, as the guidance is consistent with that previously applied by the Account
    under FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM (“ASC”) Topic 820, “Fair Value
    Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC Topic 820”). As the pronouncement only pertains

 

92


 

RELIASTAR LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK
SEPARATE ACCOUNT NY-B
Notes to Financial Statements

to additional disclosure, the adoption had no effect on the Account’s net assets and results
of operations.
 
Subsequent Events
 
In May 2009, the FASB issued new guidance on subsequent events, included in ASC
Topic 855, “Subsequent Events,” which establishes:
 
§ The period after the balance sheet date during which an entity should evaluate
  events or transactions for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial
  statements;
§ The circumstances under which an entity should recognize such events or
  transactions in its financial statements; and
§ Disclosures regarding such events or transactions and the date through which an
  entity has evaluated subsequent events.
 
These provisions, as included in ASC Topic 855, were adopted by the Account on
June 30, 2009. In addition, in February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09,
“Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure
Requirements,” which clarifies that an SEC filer should evaluate subsequent events
through the date the financial statements are issued and eliminates the requirement for an
SEC filer to disclose that date, effective upon issuance. The Account determined that
there was no effect on the Account’s net assets and results of operations upon adoption,
as the guidance is consistent with that previously applied by the Account under US
auditing standards. The disclosure provisions included in ASC Topic 855, as amended,
are presented in the Significant Accounting Policies footnote.
 
Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability
Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly
 
In April 2009, the FASB issued new guidance on determining fair value when the volume
and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying
transactions that are not orderly, included in ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements
and Disclosures,” which confirms that fair value is the price that would be received to sell
an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date under current market conditions. In addition, this guidance, as
included in ASC Topic 820:
 
§ Clarifies factors for determining whether there has been a significant decrease in
  market activity for an asset or liability;
§ Requires an entity to determine whether a transaction is not orderly based on the
  weight of the evidence; and
§ Requires an entity to disclose in interim and annual periods the input and valuation
  technique used to measure fair value and any change in valuation technique.

 

93


 

RELIASTAR LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK
SEPARATE ACCOUNT NY-B
Notes to Financial Statements

These provisions, as included in ASC Topic 820, were adopted by the Account on
April 1, 2009. The Account determined, however, that there was no effect on the
Account’s net assets and results of operations upon adoption, as its guidance is consistent
with that previously applied by the Account under US GAAP.

4 . Financial Instruments
 
    The Account invests assets in shares of open-end mutual funds, which process orders to
    purchase and redeem shares on a daily basis at the fund's next computed net asset values
    (“NAV”). The fair value of the Account’s assets is based on the NAVs of mutual funds,
    which are obtained from the custodian and reflect the fair values of the mutual fund
    investments. The NAV is calculated daily upon close of the New York Stock Exchange
    and is based on the fair values of the underlying securities.
 
    The Account’s financial assets are recorded at fair value on the Statements of Assets and
    Liabilities and are categorized as Level 1 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009,
    respectively, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique below. The
    Account had no financial liabilities as of December 31, 2010.
 
    The ASC Topic 820 fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in
    active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to
    unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within
    different levels of the hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level
    input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
 
    § Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active
      market.
    § Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable
      either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
      Level 2 inputs include the following:
      a) Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
      b) Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active
        markets;
      c) Inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable; and
      d) Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market
        data through correlation or other means.
    § Level 3 - Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both
      unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These
      valuations, whether derived internally or obtained from a third party, use critical
      assumptions that are not widely available to estimate market participant
      expectations in valuing the asset or liability.

5. Charges and Fees

Under the terms of the Contracts, certain charges are allocated to the Contracts to cover
RLNY’s expenses in connection with the issuance and administration of the Contracts.
Following is a summary of these charges:

Mortality and Expense Risk Charges

RLNY assumes mortality and expense risks related to the operations of the Account and,
in accordance with the terms of the Contracts, deducts a daily charge from the assets of
the Account. Daily charges are deducted at annual rates of up to 1.85% of the average
daily net asset value of each Division of the Account to cover these risks, as specified in
the Contracts.

Asset Based Administrative Charges

A daily charge to cover administrative expenses of the Account is deducted at an annual
rate of 0.15% of assets attributable to the Contracts.

Contract Maintenance Charges

An annual Contract maintenance fee of $30 may be deducted from the accumulation
value of Contracts to cover ongoing administrative expenses, as specified in the
Contracts.

Contingent Deferred Sales Charges

A contingent deferred sales charge (“Surrender Charge”) is imposed as a percentage of
each premium payment if the Contract is surrendered or an excess partial withdrawal is
taken during the seven-year period from the date a premium payment is received, as
specified in the Contracts. The following table reflects the Surrender Charge that is
assessed based upon the date a premium payment is received.

Transfer Charges

A transfer charge of up to $25 may be imposed on each transfer between Divisions in
excess of twelve in any one calendar year.

Premium Taxes

For certain Contracts, premium taxes are deducted, where applicable, from the
accumulation value of each Contract. The amount and timing of the deduction depends
on the contractowner’s state of residence and currently ranges up to 4.0% of premiums.

Other Contract Charges

For certain Contracts, an additional annual charge of 0.50% is deducted daily from the
accumulation value for amounts invested in the ING GET U.S. Core Portfolio Funds. In
addition, an annual charge of up to 0.60% is deducted daily from the accumulation value
for contractowners who select the Optional Asset-Backed Premium Credit feature.

6. Related Party Transactions

During the year ended December 31, 2010, management fees were paid indirectly to IIL,
an affiliate of the Company, in its capacity as investment adviser to the ING Balanced
Portfolio, Inc., ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio, ING Strategic Allocation Portfolios,
Inc., ING Variable Funds, ING Variable Insurance Trust, ING Variable Portfolios, Inc.,
and ING Variable Products Trust. The annual fee rate ranged from 0.08% to 0.95% of

A The Investment Income Ratio represents dividends received by the Division, excluding capital gains distributions divided by the average net assets.
  The recognition of investment income is determined by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying fund in which the Division invests.

ITEM 26: PERSONS CONTROLLED BY OR UNDER COMMON CONTROL WITH THE
  DEPOSITOR OR REGISTRANT
 
Incorporated herein by reference to Item 26 in Post-Effective Amendment No. 57 to a Registration
Statement on Form N-4 for Variable Annuity Account C of ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company
(File No. 033-75962), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 6, 2011.
 
ITEM 27: NUMBER OF CONTRACT OWNERS
 
As of February 28, 2011 there are 3,805 qualified contract owners and 2,119 non-qualified contract
owners.  

 

ITEM 28: INDEMNIFICATION
 
ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York (“RLNY”) shall indemnify (including therein the
prepayment of expenses) any person who is or was a director, officer or employee, or who is or was
serving at the request of RLNY as a director, officer or employee of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise for expenses (including attorney’s fees), judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him with respect to any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceedings against him by reason of the fact that he is or was such a
director, officer or employee to the extent and in the manner permitted by law.
 
RLNY may also, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify any other person who is or was serving RLNY
in any capacity. The Board of Directors shall have the power and authority to determine who may be
indemnified under this paragraph and to what extent (not to exceed the extent provided in the above
paragraph) any such person may be indemnified.

 


 

A corporation may procure indemnification insurance on behalf of an individual who is or was a director
of the corporation. Consistent with the laws of the State of New York, ING America Insurance Holdings,
Inc. maintains Professional Liability and fidelity bond insurance policies issued by an international
insurer. The policies cover ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc. and any company in which ING
America Insurance Holdings, Inc. has a controlling financial interest of 50% or more. These policies
include either or both the principal underwriter, the depositor and any/all assets under the care, custody
and control of ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc. and/or its subsidiaries. The policies provide for the
following types of coverage: errors and omissions/professional liability, employment practices liability
and fidelity/crime (a/k/a “Financial Institutional Bond”).
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant, as provided above or otherwise,
the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification by the Depositor is
against public policy, as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, and therefore may be unenforceable. In
the event that a claim of such indemnification (except insofar as it provides for the payment by the
Depositor of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted against the Depositor by such director, officer or
controlling person and the SEC is still of the same opinion, the Depositor or Registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by the Depositor is against public
policy as expressed by the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.
 
ITEM 29: PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER
 
(a) In addition to the Registrant, Directed Services LLC serves as principal underwriter for all contracts
issued by ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company through its Separate Accounts A, B and EQ
and Alger Separate Account A and ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York through its Separate
Account NY-B. Also, Directed Services LLC serves as investment advisor to ING Investors Trust and
ING Partners, Inc.
