Title of Securities Being Registered: Group or Individual Deferred Variable Annuity Contracts
* Pursuant to Rule 429(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, Registrant has included a combined prospectus under
this Registration Statement which includes all the information which would currently be required in a prospectus
relating to the following earlier Registration Statement: 33-87932.

 


 

PART A


 

ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company
Variable Annuity Account B of ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company
 
Deferred Variable Annuity Contract
 
 
ING MARATHON PLUS

 
 
 
April 29, 2011
 
The Contracts. The contracts described in this prospectus are group or individual “Marathon Plus” deferred
variable annuity contracts issued by ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our”).
They are issued to you, the contract holder, as either a nonqualified deferred annuity; a qualified individual
retirement annuity (“IRA”) under section 408(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Tax Code”); a
qualified Roth IRA under section 408A of the Tax Code; or as a qualified contract for use with certain employer
sponsored retirement plans. Prior to May 1, 1998, the contracts were available as tax-deferred annuities as described
under section 401(a) of the Tax Code. The contracts are not available as SIMPLE IRAs under Tax Code section
408(p). We do not currently offer this contract for sale to new purchasers.
 
Why Reading this Prospectus Is Important. This prospectus contains facts about the contracts and their
investment options that you should know before purchasing. This information will help you decide if the contracts
are right for you. Please read this prospectus carefully.
 
Investment Options. The contracts offer variable investment options and fixed interest options. When we establish
your account you instruct us to direct account dollars to any of the available options.
 
Variable Investment Options. These options are called subaccounts. The subaccounts are within Variable Annuity
Account B (the “separate account”), a separate account of the Company. Each subaccount invests in one of the
mutual funds listed on this page. Earnings on amounts invested in a subaccount will vary depending upon the
performance of its underlying fund. You do not invest directly in or hold shares of the funds.
 
The Funds. Information about the funds in which the subaccounts invest is located in Appendix III - Description of
Underlying Funds and in each fund prospectus. A prospectus containing more information on each Underlying Fund
may be obtained by calling our Customer Service Center at 1-800-531-4547. You may also obtain a prospectus or
SAI for any of the funds by calling that number. Read this prospectus in conjunction with the fund prospectuses, and
retain the prospectuses for future reference. 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 email address shown
on the front of the fund’s summary prospectus.
 
Getting Additional Information. You may obtain free of charge the April 29, 2011, Statement of Additional
Information (“SAI”) about the separate account by indicating your request on your application or calling us at
1-800-531-4547. You may also obtain free of charge the most recent annual and/or quarterly report of ING Life
Insurance and Annuity Company by calling us at that number. The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
also makes available to the public reports and information about the separate account and the funds. Certain reports
and information, including this prospectus and SAI, are available on the EDGAR Database on the SEC website,
www.sec.gov, or at the SEC Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. You may call 1-202-942-8090 or

reports and other information about the separate account and the funds, after paying a duplicating fee, by sending an
email request to publicinfo@sec.gov or by writing to the SEC Public Reference Room, 100 F Street, N.E., Room
1580, Washington, D.C. 20549-0102. The SAI table of contents is listed in this prospectus. The SAI is incorporated

CONTRACT OVERVIEW  
 
The following is intended as a summary. Please read each section of this prospectus for additional detail.
 
Questions:  
 
Contacting the Company. To answer your questions, contact your sales representative or write or call our
Customer Service Center at:  
 
ING  
P.O. Box 9271

Sending Forms and Written Requests in Good Order. If you are writing to change your beneficiary, request a
withdrawal or for any other purpose, contact us or your sales representative to learn what information is required for
the request to be in “good order.” We can only act upon requests that are received in good order.
 
Generally, a request is considered to be in “good order” when it is signed, dated and made with such clarity and
completeness that we are not required to exercise any discretion in carrying it out.

If using the U.S. Postal Service: If using express mail:
ING ING
Attn: Customer Service Center Attn: Customer Service Center
P.O. Box 9271 909 Locust Street
Des Moines, IA 50306-9271 Des Moines, IA 50309-2899
 
Express mail packages should not be sent to the P.O. Box address.
 
Contract Design:  
 
The contract described in this prospectus is a group or individual deferred variable annuity contract. It is intended to
be a retirement savings vehicle that offers a variety of investment options to help meet long-term financial goals.
The term “contract” in this prospectus refers to individual contracts and to certificates issued under group contracts.
 
Contract Facts:  
 
Free Look/Right to Cancel. You may cancel your contract within ten days (some states require more than ten days)
of receipt. See “Right To Cancel.”  
 
Death Benefit. Your beneficiary may receive a financial benefit in the event of your death prior to the income
phase. Any death benefit during the income phase will depend upon the income phase payment option selected. See
“Death Benefit” and “The Income Phase.”  
 
Withdrawals. During the accumulation phase you may withdraw all or part of your account value. Certain fees,
taxes and early withdrawal penalties may apply. In addition, the Tax Code restricts full and partial withdrawals in
some circumstances. See “Withdrawals.” Amounts withdrawn from the Guaranteed Account may be subject to a
market value adjustment. See Appendix I.  
 
Systematic Distribution Options. These are made available for you to receive periodic withdrawals from your
account, while retaining the account in the accumulation phase. See “Systematic Distribution Options.”
 
Fees and Expenses. Certain fees and expenses are deducted from the value of your contract. See “Fee Table” and
“Fees.”  
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 1

 


 

Taxation. You will generally not pay taxes on any earnings from the annuity contract described in this prospectus
until they are withdrawn. Tax-qualified retirement arrangements (e.g., IRAs, 401(a) and 457 plans) also defer
payment of taxes on earnings until they are withdrawn. If you are considering funding a tax-qualified retirement
arrangement with an annuity contract, you should know that the annuity contract does not provide any additional tax
deferral of earnings beyond the tax deferral provided by the tax-qualified retirement arrangement. However,
annuities do provide other features and benefits which may be valuable to you. You should discuss your decision
with your financial representative.  
 
Taxes will generally be due when you receive a distribution. Tax penalties may apply in some circumstances. See
“Federal Tax Considerations.”  
 
Use of an Annuity Contract in an IRA or other Qualified Plan. 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 an Individual
Retirement Account or other qualified retirement account, an annuity contract is not necessary to obtain this
favorable tax treatment. However, annuities do provide other features and benefits (such as the guaranteed death
benefit or the option of lifetime income phase options at established rates) which may be valuable to you. You
should discuss your alternatives with your sales representative taking into account the additional fees and expenses
you may incur in an annuity. See “Purchase and Rights.”
 
 
 
CONTRACT PHASES  
 
I. The Accumulation Phase (accumulating dollars under your contract)
 
STEP 1: You provide us with your completed application and initial purchase payment. We establish an account
for you and credit that account with your initial purchase payment. If you elected the premium bonus option we will
also credit your account with a premium bonus.  
 
STEP 2: You direct us to invest your purchase payment and the premium bonus, if applicable, in one or more of the
following investment options:  
 
· Fixed Interest Options; or  
· Variable Investment Options. (The variable investment options are the subaccounts of Variable Annuity
  Account B. Each one invests in a specific mutual fund.)
 
STEP 3: Each subaccount you select purchases shares of its assigned fund.
 
II. The Income Phase (receiving income phase payments from your contract)
 
When you want to begin receiving payments from your contract you may select from the options available. The
contract offers several income phase payment options (see “The Income Phase”). In general, you may:
 
· Receive income phase payments for a specified period of time or for life;
 
· Receive income phase payments monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually;
 
· Select an income phase payment option that provides for payments to your beneficiary; or
 
· Select income phase payments that are fixed or vary depending upon the performance of the variable
  investment options you select.

Fees Deducted by the Funds                  
 
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. The minimum and maximum expenses listed below are  
based on expenses for the Trust or Fund’s most recent fiscal year ends without taking into account any fee waiver or  
expense reimbursement arrangements that may apply. 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 Expenses       Minimum   Maximum  
(expenses that are deducted from Trust or Fund assets, including          
management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees1, and   0.34 % 1.31 %
other expenses):                  
 
1 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 are made by the funds or the funds’ affiliates to the Company and do not  
increase, directly or indirectly, the fees and expenses shown above. See “Fees – Fund Expenses” for additional information.  
 
Examples                      
 
These examples are intended to help you compare the costs of investing in the contract with the cost of investing in  
other variable annuity contracts. These costs include contract owner transaction expenses, applicable to each type of  
contract, contract fees, separate account annual expenses, and Trust or Fund fees and expenses. The examples  
assume that you invest $10,000 in the contract for the time periods indicated. The examples also assume that your  
investment has a 5% return each year and assumes the maximum fees and expenses of the contracts and of any of  
the Trusts or Funds without taking into account any fee waiver or expense reimbursement arrangements that may  
apply.                      
 
Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:  
 
For Contracts Other Than Roth IRA Contract Issued Outside of the State of New York      
 
1 ) If you withdraw your entire account value at the end of the applicable time period:  
    1 year   3 years   5 years   10 years  
    $965 $ 1,415 $ 1,891 $ 2,953      
2 ) If you do not withdraw your entire account value or if you select an income phase  
    payment option at the end of the applicable time period:*          
    1 year   3 years   5 years   10 years  
    $265 $ 815 $ 1,391 $ 2,953      
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP   5              

 


 

For Contracts Issued In the State of New York        
 
1 ) If you withdraw your entire account value at the end of the applicable time period:
    1 year 3 years   5 years   10 years
    $979 $1,357 $ 1,760 $ 3,088
2 ) If you do not withdraw your entire account value or if you select an income phase
    payment option at the end of the applicable time period:*    
    1 year 3 years   5 years   10 years
    $279 $857 $ 1,460 $ 3,088
 
* This example does not apply during the income phase if you selected a nonlifetime income phase payment option with
variable payments and take a lump-sum withdrawal after payments start. In this case the lump-sum payment is treated as a
withdrawal during the accumulation phase and may be subject to an early withdrawal charge (refer to Example 1).
 
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 “Fees - Fund
Expenses” for more information.          
 
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 “Fees – 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        
 
Understanding Condensed Financial Information. In Appendix IV of this prospectus, we provide condensed
financial information about the Variable Annuity Account B (the separate account) subaccounts you may invest in
through the contract. 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.    
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP     6    

 


 

INVESTMENT OPTIONS  
 
The contract offers variable investment options and fixed interest options.
 
Variable Investment Options. These options are called subaccounts. The subaccounts are within Variable Annuity
Account B (the “separate account”), a separate account of the Company. Each subaccount invests in a specific
mutual fund. You do not invest directly in or hold shares of the funds.
 
· Mutual Fund (Fund) Descriptions: We provide brief descriptions of the funds in Appendix III.
  Investment results of the funds are likely to differ significantly and there is no assurance that any of the
  funds will achieve their respective investment objectives. 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. Unless otherwise noted, all funds are diversified as defined under the
  Investment Company Act of 1940. Refer to the fund prospectuses for additional information. Fund
  prospectuses may be obtained, free of charge, from our Customer Service Center at the address and phone
  number listed in “Contract Overview - Questions: Contacting the Company,” by accessing the SEC’s
  website 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 in a “Master-Feeder” or “Fund of Funds” structure and may have higher fees and
  expenses than a fund that invests directly in debt and equity securities.
· ING GET U.S. Core Portfolio (formerly known as, and referred to herein as, “GET Fund”). A 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. 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 any maintenance fees or 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. The guarantee does
not promise that you will earn the fund’s minimum targeted return referred to in the investment objective.
 
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 guarantee will not apply to these amounts
or to amounts deducted as a maintenance fee, if applicable. The GET Fund subaccount is not available for the dollar
cost averaging program or the account rebalancing program.
 
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 GET Fund investment
option, including charges and expenses.  
 
Fixed Interest Options. If available in your state, the fixed interest option is the ILIAC Guaranteed Account (the
“Guaranteed Account”) or the Fixed Account. The Guaranteed Account offers certain guaranteed minimum interest
rates for a stated period of time. Amounts must remain in the Guaranteed Account for specific periods to receive the
quoted interest rates, or a market value adjustment will be applied. The market value adjustment may be positive or
negative. The Fixed Account guarantees payment of the minimum interest rate specified in the contract. The Fixed
Account is only available in certain states. For a description of these options, see Appendices I and II and the
Guaranteed Account prospectus.  
 
Selecting Investment Options  
 
· Choose options appropriate for you. Your sales representative can help you evaluate which investment
  options may be appropriate for your financial goals, investment time horizon and risk tolerance. You
  should periodically review these factors to determine if you need to change your investment strategy.
 
· Understand the risks associated with the options you choose. Some subaccounts invest in funds that are
  considered riskier than others. Funds with additional risks are expected to have values that rise and fall
  more rapidly and to a greater degree than other funds. For example, funds investing in foreign or
  international securities are subject to risks not associated with domestic investments, and their investment
  performance may vary accordingly. Also, funds using derivatives in their investment strategy may be
  subject to additional risks.  
 
· Be informed. Read this prospectus, the fund prospectuses, the Guaranteed Account and Fixed Account
  appendices and the Guaranteed Account prospectus.
 
Limits on Availability of Options. Some funds or fixed interest options may be unavailable through your contract
or in your state. We may add, withdraw or substitute funds, subject to the conditions in your contract and
compliance with regulatory requirements. In the case of a substitution, the new fund may have different fees and
charges than the fund it replaced.  
 
Limits on How Many Investment Options You May Select. Although there is currently no limit, we reserve the
right to limit the number of investment options you may select at any one time or during the life of the contract. For
purposes of determining any limit, each subaccount and each guaranteed term of the Guaranteed Account, or an
investment in the Fixed Account in certain contracts where the Guaranteed Account is not available, will be
considered an option.  
 
Additional Risks of Investing in the Funds (Mixed and Shared Funding). “Shared funding” occurs when shares
of a fund, which the subaccounts buy for variable annuity contracts, are also bought by other insurance companies
for their variable annuity contracts.  
 
“Mixed funding” occurs when shares of a fund, which the subaccounts buy for variable annuity contracts, are bought
for variable life insurance contracts issued by us or other insurance companies.
 
· Shared - bought by more than one company  
· Mixed - bought for annuities and life insurance
 
It is possible that a conflict of interest may arise due to mixed and/or shared funding, which could adversely impact
the value of a fund. For example, if a conflict of interest occurred and one of the subaccounts withdrew its
investment in a fund, the fund may be forced to sell its securities at disadvantageous prices, causing its share value
to decrease. Each fund’s Board of Directors or Trustees will monitor events to identify any conflicts which may
arise and to determine what action, if any, should be taken to address such conflicts.
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 8

 


 

TRANSFERS AMONG INVESTMENT OPTIONS (EXCESSIVE TRADING POLICY)
 
You may transfer amounts among the available subaccounts. During the accumulation phase we allow you 12 free
transfers each calendar year. We reserve the right to charge $10 for each additional transfer. We currently do not
impose this charge. During the income phase, if approved in your state, transfers are limited to four per year and
allowed only if you select variable payments.  
 
Transfers from the Guaranteed Account are subject to certain restrictions and may be subject to a market value
adjustment. Transfers from the Fixed Account are subject to certain restrictions, and transfers into the Fixed
Account from any of the other investment options are not allowed. Transfers must be made in accordance with the
terms of your contract.  
 
Transfer Requests. Requests may be made in writing, by telephone or, where applicable, electronically.
 
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.  
 
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.
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 9

 


 

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
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.
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 10

 


 

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.  
 
Value of Your Transferred Dollars. The value of amounts transferred into or out of subaccounts will be based on
the subaccount unit values next determined after we receive your transfer request in good order at our Customer
Service Center or, if you are participating in the dollar cost averaging or account rebalancing programs, after your
scheduled transfer or reallocation.  
 
Telephone and Electronic Transactions: Security Measures. To prevent fraudulent use of telephone and
electronic transactions (including, but not limited to, internet transactions), we have established security procedures.
These include recording calls on our toll-free telephone lines and requiring use of a personal identification number
(PIN) to execute transactions. You are responsible for keeping your PIN and account information confidential.
Please be advised that the risk of a fraudulent transaction is increased with telephone or electronic transactions (for
example, a facsimile withdrawal request form), even if appropriate identifying information is provided. If we fail to
follow reasonable security procedures, we may be liable for losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent telephone or
other electronic transactions. We are not liable for losses resulting from telephone or electronic instructions we
believe to be genuine. If a loss occurs when rely on such instructions, you will bear the loss.
 
The Dollar Cost Averaging Program. Dollar cost averaging is an investment strategy whereby you purchase fixed
dollar amounts of an investment at regular intervals, regardless of price. Under this program a fixed dollar amount is
automatically transferred from certain subaccounts, the Guaranteed Account or Fixed Account to any of the other
subaccounts. A market value adjustment will not be applied to dollar cost averaging transfers from a guaranteed
term of the Guaranteed Account during participation in the dollar cost averaging program. If such participation is
discontinued, we will automatically transfer the remaining balance in that guaranteed term to another guaranteed
term of the same duration, unless you initiate a transfer into another investment option. In either case a market value
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 11

 


 

adjustment will apply. See Appendix III for more information about dollar cost averaging from the Guaranteed
Account. If dollar cost averaging is stopped with respect to amounts invested in the Fixed Account, the remaining
balance will be transferred to the money market subaccount.
 
Dollar cost averaging neither ensures a profit nor guarantees against loss in a declining market. You should consider
your financial ability to continue purchases through periods of low price levels. There is no additional charge for this
program and transfers made under this program do not count as transfers when determining the number of free
transfers that may be made each calendar year. For additional information about this program, contact your sales
representative or call us at the number listed in “Contract Overview - Questions: Contacting the Company.”
 
In certain states purchase payments allocated to the Fixed Account may require participation in the dollar cost
averaging program.  
 
The Account Rebalancing Program. Account rebalancing allows you to reallocate your account value to match the
investment allocations you originally selected. Only account values invested in the subaccounts may be rebalanced.
We automatically reallocate your account value annually (or more frequently as we allow). Account rebalancing
neither ensures a profit nor guarantees against loss in a declining market. There is no additional charge for this
program and transfers made under this program do not count as transfers when determining the number of free
transfers that may be made each account year. You may participate in this program by completing the account
rebalancing section of your application or by contacting us at the address and/or number listed in “Contract
Overview - Questions: Contacting the Company.”  
 
 
PURCHASE AND RIGHTS  
 
How to Purchase: Please note that this contract is no longer available for purchase, although you may continue to
make purchase payments under existing contracts. We and our affiliates offer various other products with different
features and terms than these contracts that may offer some or all of the same funds. These products have different
benefits, fees and charges, and may offer different share classes of the funds offered in this contract that are less
expensive. These other products may or may not better match your needs. You should be aware that there are
alternative options available, and, if you are interested in learning more about these other products, contact your
registered representative.  
 
· Individual Contracts. In some states, where group contracts are not available, you may purchase the
  contract directly from us by completing an application and delivering it and your initial purchase payment
  to us. Upon our approval we will issue you a contract and set up an account for you under the contract.
   
· Group Contracts. In most states we have distributors, usually broker-dealers or banks, who hold the
  contract as a group contract (see “Other Topics - Contract Distribution”). You may purchase an interest (or,
  in other words, participate) in the group contract by contacting a distributor and completing an application
  and delivering it with your initial purchase payment to that distributor. Upon our approval, we will set up
  an account for you under the group contract and issue you a certificate showing your rights under the
  contract.  
 
· Joint Contracts (generally spouses). For a nonqualified contract, you may participate in a group contract as
  a joint contract holder. References to “contract holder” in this prospectus mean both contract holders under
  joint contracts. Tax law prohibits the purchase of qualified contracts by joint contract holders.

Factors to Consider in the Purchase Decision. You should discuss you decision to purchase a contract with your
sales representative. You should understand the investment options it provides, its other features, the risks and
potential benefits it includes, and the fees and expenses you will incur. You should take note of the following issues,
among others:  
 
1 . Long-Term Investment - This contract is designed for people seeking long-term tax-deferred accumulation of
    assets, generally for retirement or other long-term purposes. Early withdrawals may cause you to incur
    surrender charges and/or tax penalties. The value of deferred taxation on earnings grows with the amount of
    time funds are left in the contract. You should not buy this contract if you are looking for a short-term
    investment or expect to need to make withdrawals before you are 59½.
 
2 . Investment Risk - The value of investment options available under this contract may fluctuate with the markets
    and interest rates. You should not buy this contract in order to invest in these options if you cannot risk getting
    back less money than you put in.  
 
3. Features and Fees - The fees for this contract reflect costs associated with the features and benefits it provides.
In some cases, you have the option to elect certain benefits that carry additional charges. As you consider this
contract, you should determine the value that these various benefits and features have for you, taking into
account the charges for those features.  
 
4 . Exchanges - If this contract will be a replacement for another annuity contract, you should compare the two
    contracts carefully. You should consider whether any additional benefits under this contract justify any
    increased charges that might apply. Also, be sure to talk to your sales representative or tax adviser to make
    sure that the exchange will be handled so that it is tax-free.
 
Maximum Issue Age. The maximum issue age for you and the annuitant (if you are not the annuitant) on the date
we establish your account is 90 (age 85 for those contracts issued in New York and Pennsylvania).
 
Your Rights Under the Contract  
 
·   Individual Contracts. You have all contract rights.
 
·   Group Contracts. The holder of the group contract has title to the contract and, generally, only the right to
    accept or reject any modifications to the contract. You have all other rights to your account under the
    contract.  
 
·   Joint Contracts. Joint contract holders have equal rights under the contract with respect to their account. All
    rights under the contract must be exercised by both joint contract holders with the exception of transfers
    among investment options. See the “Death Benefit” section for the rights of the surviving joint contract
    holder upon the death of a joint contract holder prior to the income phase start date.
 
Purchase Payment Methods. The following purchase payment methods are allowed:
 
·   One lump sump;  
·   Periodic payments; or  
·   Transfer or rollover from a pre-existing retirement plan or account.*
 
We reserve the right to reject any payments to a prospective or existing account without advance notice.
 
* In some states an IRA contract can only accept a lump-sum, rollover payment.
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 13

 


 

Purchase Payment Amounts.      
The minimum initial purchase payment amounts are as follows:    
 
  Nonqualified   Qualified
 
Minimum Initial Purchase Payment $5,000 $ 1,500
 
Additional purchase payments must be at least $50 (we may change this amount from time to time). A purchase
payment of more than $1,500,000 will be allowed only with our consent.    
 
Acceptance or Rejection of Your Application. We must accept or reject your application within two business days
of receipt. If the application is incomplete, we may hold any forms and accompanying purchase payment(s) for five
business days. We may hold purchase payments for longer periods, pending acceptance of the application, only with
your permission. If the application is rejected, the application and any purchase payments will be returned to you.
 
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.    
 
Allocating Purchase Payments to the Investment Options. We will allocate your purchase payments among the
investment options you select. Allocations must be in whole percentages and there may be limits on the number of
investment options you may select. When selecting investment options you may find it helpful to review the
“Investment Options” section.      
 
 
RIGHT TO CANCEL      
 
When and How to Cancel. You may cancel your contract within ten days of receipt (some states require more than
ten days) by returning it to our Customer Service Center along with a written notice of cancellation.
 
Refunds. We will issue you a refund within seven days of our receipt of your contract and written notice of
cancellation. Unless your state requires otherwise or unless you purchased an IRA, your refund will equal the
purchase payments made plus any earnings or minus any losses attributable to those purchase payments allocated
among the subaccounts. In other words, you will bear the entire investment risk for amounts allocated among the
subaccounts during this period and the amount refunded could be less than the amount paid. If your state requires or
if you purchased an IRA, we will refund all purchase payments made.    
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 14    

 


 

If the purchase payments for your canceled contract came from a rollover from another contract issued by us or one  
of our affiliates where an early withdrawal charge was reduced or eliminated, the purchase payments will be  
restored to your prior contract.    
 
 
FEES    
 
The following repeats and adds to information provided in the “Fee Table” section. Please review both sections for  
information on fees.    
 
TRANSACTION FEES    
 
Early Withdrawal Charge    
Withdrawals of all or a portion of your account value may be subject to a charge. In the case of a partial withdrawal  
where you request a specified dollar amount, the amount withdrawn from your account will be the amount you  
specified plus adjustment for any applicable early withdrawal charge.  
 
Amount. A percentage of the purchase payments that you withdraw. The percentage will be determined by the early  
withdrawal charge schedule that applies to your account.

1 If the purchase payment is a rollover from another contract issued by us or one of our affiliates and the early withdrawal  
charge has been waived, the early withdrawal charge will be based on the number of completed account years since the date  
of the initial purchase payment to the former contract.    
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 15  

 


 

Purpose. This is a deferred sales charge. It reimburses us for some of the sales and administrative expenses
associated with the contract. If our expenses are greater than the amount we collect for the early withdrawal charge,
we may use any of our corporate assets, including potential profit that may arise from the mortality and expense risk
charge, to make up any difference.  
 
First In, First Out. The early withdrawal charge is calculated separately for each purchase payment withdrawn. For
purposes of calculating your early withdrawal charge, we consider that your first purchase payment to the account
(first in) is the first you withdraw (first out).  
 
For example: For contracts other than Roth IRAs issued outside of New York, we calculate the early withdrawal
charge based on the number of years since the purchase payment was received. If your initial purchase payment was
made three years ago, we will deduct an early withdrawal charge equal to 6% of the portion of that purchase
payment withdrawn. The next time you make a withdrawal we will assess the charge against the portion of the first
purchase payment that you did not withdraw and/or your subsequent purchase payments to your account in the order
they were received.  
 
For Roth IRAs, we calculate the early withdrawal charge based on the number of completed account years. If three
years have elapsed since your initial purchase payment was made, we will deduct an early withdrawal charge equal
to 2% of the portion of that purchase payment withdrawn. The next time you make a withdrawal we will assess the
charge against the portion of the first purchase payment that you did not withdraw and/or your subsequent purchase
payments to your account in the order they were received.
 
Earnings may be withdrawn after all purchase payments have been withdrawn. There is no early withdrawal charge
for withdrawal of earnings.  
 
Free Withdrawals. There is no early withdrawal charge if, during each calendar year, the amount withdrawn is
10% or less (for contracts issued in New York, 15% or less on the first withdrawal each calendar year after the first
account year) than:  
 
· Your account value as of the last valuation day of the preceding calendar year or the date of your first
  purchase payment, whichever is later (if approved in your state); or
 
· Your account value on the next valuation day after we receive your withdrawal request.
 
The free withdrawal amount will be adjusted for amounts withdrawn under a systematic distribution option or taken
as a required minimum distribution during the calendar year.
 
Waiver. The early withdrawal charge is waived for purchase payments withdrawn if the withdrawal is:
 
· Used to provide income phase payments to you;
 
· Paid due to the annuitant’s death during the accumulation phase in an amount up to the sum of purchase
  payments made, minus the total of all partial withdrawals, amounts applied to an income phase payment
  option and deductions made prior to the annuitant’s death;
 
· Paid upon a full withdrawal where your account value is $2,500 or less and no part of the account has been
  withdrawn during the prior 12 months;  
 
· Taken because of the election of a systematic distribution option but, with respect to the Systematic
  Withdrawal Option (SWO) and the Life Expectancy Option (LEO), only to the extent that the amount taken
  is 10% or less (15% or less for contracts issued in the State of New York) of your account value on the later
  of the date we established your account or the most recent anniversary of that date (see “Systematic
  Distribution Options”);  
 
· Applied as a rollover to certain Roth IRAs issued by us or an affiliate;
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 16

 


 

· If approved in your state, taken under a qualified contract, when the amount withdrawn is equal to the
  minimum distribution required by the Tax Code for your account calculated using a method permitted
  under the Tax Code and agreed to by us (including required minimum distributions using the Estate
  Conservation Option (ECO) systematic distribution option); or
· Paid upon termination of your account by us (see “Other Topics - Involuntary Terminations”).
Nursing Home Waiver. You may withdraw all or a portion of your account value without an early withdrawal
charge if:  
· More than one year has elapsed since the account effective date;
· The withdrawal is requested within three years of the annuitant’s admission to a licensed nursing care
  facility (in New Hampshire non-licensed facilities are included); and
· The annuitant has spent at least 45 consecutive days in such nursing care facility.
We will not waive the early withdrawal charge if the annuitant was in a nursing care facility on the date we
established your account. It will also not apply if otherwise prohibited by state law.
Annual Maintenance Fee  
Maximum Amount. $30.00  
When/How. Each year during the accumulation phase we deduct this fee from your account value. We deduct it on
your account anniversary and at the time of full withdrawal. It is deducted proportionally from each investment
option.    
Purpose. This fee reimburses us for our administrative expenses related to the establishment and maintenance of
your account.  
Elimination. We will not deduct the annual maintenance fee if your account value is $50,000 or more on the date
this fee is to be deducted.  
Transfer Charge  
Amount. During the accumulation phase we currently allow you 12 free transfers each calendar year. We reserve
the right to charge $10 for each additional transfer. We currently do not impose this charge.
Purpose. This charge reimburses us for administrative expenses associated with transferring your dollars among
investment options.  
Overnight Charge. You may choose to have this $20 charge for overnight delivery deducted from the amount of a
withdrawal you would like sent to you by overnight delivery.
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.

FEES DEDUCTED FROM INVESTMENTS IN THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT    
Mortality and Expense Risk Charge      
Maximum Amount. During the accumulation phase the amount of this charge depends upon which contract you  
purchase. The amount of this charge, on an annual basis, is equal to the following percentages of your account value  
invested in the subaccounts:      
Contracts Issued Outside of the State of New York    
· Contracts other than Roth IRAs Issued before May 1, 1998 1.25 %
· Contracts Issued on or after May 1, 1998, and all Roth IRA Contracts 1.10 %
Contracts Issued in the State of New York      
· All Contracts   1.25 %
During the income phase this charge, on an annual basis, is equal to 1.25% of amounts held in the subaccounts. See  
“The Income Phase – Charges Deducted.”      
When/How. We deduct this charge daily from the subaccounts corresponding to the funds you select. We do not  
deduct this charge from any fixed interest option.      
Purpose. This charge compensates us for the mortality and expense risks we assume under the contract.  
· The mortality risks are those risks associated with our promise to make lifetime income phase payments  
  based on annuity rates specified in the contract.    
· The expense risk is the risk that the actual expenses we incur under the contract will exceed the maximum  
  costs that we can charge.      
If the amount we deduct for this charge is not enough to cover our mortality costs and expenses under the contract,  
we will bear the loss. We may use any excess to recover distribution costs relating to the contract and as a source of  
profit. We expect to make a profit from this charge.      
Administrative Expense Charge      
Maximum Amount. During the accumulation phase the amount of this charge, on an annual basis, is equal to  
0.15% of your account value invested in the subaccounts. There is currently no administrative expense charge  
during the income phase. We reserve the right, however, to charge an administrative expense charge of up to 0.25%  
during the income phase.      
When/How. If imposed, we deduct this charge daily from the subaccounts corresponding to the funds you select.  
We do not deduct this charge from the fixed interest options. This charge may be assessed during the accumulation  
phase or the income phase. If we are currently imposing this charge when you enter the income phase, the charge  
will apply to you during the entire income phase.      
Purpose. This charge helps defray our administrative expenses that cannot be covered by the mortality and expense  
risk charge described above. This charge is not intended to exceed the average expected cost of administering the  
contract. We do not expect to make a profit from this charge.    
ING GET U.S. Core Portfolio Guarantee Charge      
Maximum Amount. 0.50%, but only if you elect to invest in the GET Fund investment option.  
When/How. We deduct this charge daily during the guarantee period from amounts allocated to the GET Fund  
investment option.      
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 18    

 


 

Purpose. This charge compensates us for the cost of providing a guarantee of accumulation unit values of the GET
Fund subaccount. See “Investment Options-Variable Investment Options.
 
REDUCTION OR ELIMINATION OF CERTAIN FEES
 
When sales of the contract are made to individuals or a group of individuals in a manner that results in savings of
sales or administrative expenses, we may reduce or eliminate the early withdrawal charge, annual maintenance fee,
mortality and expense risk charge or administrative expense charge. Our decision to reduce or eliminate any of these
fees will be based on one or more of the following:  
 
· The size and type of group to whom the contract is offered;
 
· The amount of expected purchase payments;
 
· A prior or existing relationship with the Company, such as being an employee or former employee of the
  Company or one of our affiliates, receiving distributions or making transfers from other contracts issued by
  us or one of our affiliates or transferring amounts held under qualified retirement plans sponsored by us or
  one of our affiliates;  
 
· The type and frequency of administrative and sales services provided; or
 
· The level of annual maintenance fees and early withdrawal charges.
 
In the case of an exchange of another contract issued by us or one of our affiliates where the early withdrawal charge
has been waived, the early withdrawal charge for certain contracts offered by this prospectus may be determined
based on the dates purchase payments were received in the prior contract.
 
The reduction or elimination of any of these fees will not be unfairly discriminatory against any person and will be
done according to our rules in effect at the time the contract is issued. We reserve the right to change these rules
from time to time. The right to reduce or eliminate any of these fees may be subject to state approval.
 
FUND EXPENSES  
 
As shown in the fund prospectuses, 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. You should evaluate the expenses associated with
the funds available through this contract before making a decision to invest.
 
The company may receive substantial revenue from each of the funds or from 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 contract fees and charges and whether to offer a fund through
our contracts. 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.
 
Assets allocated to affiliated funds, meaning funds managed by Directed Services 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.  
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 19

 


 

Types of Revenue Received from Affiliated Funds.
 
The types of revenue received by the company from affiliated funds may include:
 
· A share of the management fee deducted from fund assets;
 
· Service fees that are deducted from fund assets;
 
· For certain share classes, compensation paid out of 12b-1 fees that are deducted from fund assets; 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.
 
These revenues may be received as cash payments or according to a variety of financial accounting techniques that
are used to allocate revenue and profits across the organization. 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 receives additional amounts
related to affiliated funds in the form of intercompany payments from the fund’s investment adviser or the
investment adviser’s parent. These revenues provide the company with a financial incentive to offer affiliated funds
through the contract rather than unaffiliated funds.  
 
Types of 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.
 
The types of revenues received by the company or its affiliates from unaffiliated funds include:
 
· For certain funds, compensation paid from 12b-1 fees or service fees that are deducted from fund assets;
  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 prospectus. These additional payments may be used by us to finance
  distribution of the contract.  
 
These revenues are received as cash payments, and 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, that ranking would be as follows:
 
· FidelityInvestments®  
· Calvert Funds  
 
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
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 20

 


 

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 “Master-Feeder” or “Fund of Funds.” Funds offered in a Master-Feeder structure
(such as the ING American Funds Portfolios) or “Fund of Funds” structure (such as the ING Strategic Allocation
Portfolios) 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 portfolio and its corresponding underlying fund or funds. The "master-feeder"
and "fund of funds” available under the contract are identified in the list of investment portfolios toward 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. For
more information, please see “Other Topics – Contract Distribution.”
 
PREMIUM AND OTHER TAXES  
 
Maximum Amount. Some states and municipalities charge a premium tax on annuities. These taxes currently range
from 0% to 4%, depending upon the jurisdiction.  
 
When/How. We reserve the right to deduct a charge for premium taxes from your account value or from purchase
payments to the account at any time, but not before there is a tax liability under state law. For example, we may
deduct a charge for premium taxes at the time of a complete withdrawal or we may reflect the cost of premium taxes
in our income phase payment rates when you commence income phase payments.
 
We will not deduct a charge for any municipal premium tax of 1% or less, but we reserve the right to reflect such an
expense in our annuity purchase rates.  
 
In addition, we reserve the right to assess a charge for any federal taxes due against the separate account. See
“Federal Tax Considerations.”  
 
 
YOUR ACCOUNT VALUE  
 
During the accumulation phase your account value at any given time equals:
 
· The current dollar value of amounts invested in the subaccounts; plus
· The current dollar values of amounts invested in the fixed interest options, including interest earnings to
  date.  
 
Subaccount Accumulation Units. When you select a fund as an investment option, your account dollars invest in
“accumulation units” of the Variable Annuity Account B subaccount corresponding to that fund. The subaccount
invests directly in the fund shares. The value of your interests in a subaccount is expressed as the number of
accumulation units you hold multiplied by an “accumulation unit value,” as described below, for each unit.
 
Accumulation Unit Value (AUV). The value of each accumulation unit in a subaccount is called the accumulation
unit value or AUV. The AUV varies daily in relation to the underlying fund’s investment performance. The value
also reflects deductions for fund fees and expenses, the mortality and expense risk charge and the administrative
expense charge (if any) and, for amounts allocated to the ING GET U.S. Core Portfolio subaccount only, the GET
Fund guarantee charge. We discuss these deductions in more detail in “Fee Table” and “Fees.”
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 21

 


 

Valuation. We determine the AUV every normal business day after the close of the New York Stock Exchange
(normally at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time). At that time we calculate the current AUV by multiplying the AUV last
calculated by the “net investment factor” of the subaccount. The net investment factor measures the investment
performance of the subaccount from one valuation to the next.
 
Current AUV = Prior AUV x Net Investment Factor  
 
Net Investment Factor. The net investment factor for a subaccount between two consecutive valuations equals the
sum of 1.0000 plus the net investment rate.  
 
Net Investment Rate. The net investment rate is computed according to a formula that is equivalent to the
following:    
 
· The net assets of the fund held by the subaccount as of the current valuation; minus
 
· The net assets of the fund held by the subaccount at the preceding valuation; plus or minus
 
· Taxes or provisions for taxes, if any, due to subaccount operations (with any federal income tax liability
  offset by foreign tax credits to the extent allowed); divided by
 
· The total value of the subaccount’s units at the preceding valuation; minus
 
· A daily deduction for the mortality and expense risk charge, the administrative expense charge, if any, and
  any other fees deducted from investments in the separate account, such as guarantee charges for the ING
  GET U.S. Core Portfolio. See “Fees.”  
 
The net investment rate may be either positive or negative.
 
Hypothetical Illustration. As a hypothetical illustration assume that your initial purchase payment to a qualified
contract is $5,000 and you direct us to invest $3,000 in Fund A and $2,000 in Fund B. Also assume that on the day
we receive the purchase payment the applicable AUVs after the next close of business of the New York Stock
Exchange (normally at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) are $10 for Subaccount A and $20 for Subaccount B. Your account
is credited with 300 accumulation units of Subaccount A and 100 accumulation units of Subaccount B.
 
Step 1:   You make an initial purchase payment of $5000.
 
Step 2:      
 
  A. You direct us to invest $3,000 in Fund A. The purchase payment purchases 300 accumulation units of
    Subaccount A ($3,000 divided by the current $10 AUV).
  B. You direct us to invest $2,000 in Fund B. The purchase payment purchases 100 accumulation units of
    Subaccount B ($2,000 divided by the current $20 AUV).
 
Step 3:   The separate account purchases shares of the applicable funds at the then current market value (net
    asset value or NAV).  
 
Each fund’s subsequent investment performance, expenses and charges, and the daily charges deducted from the
subaccount, will cause the AUV to move up or down on a daily basis.
 
Purchase Payments to Your Account. If all or a portion of your initial purchase payment is directed to the
subaccounts, it will purchase subaccount accumulation units at the AUV next computed after our acceptance of your
application as described in “Purchase and Rights.” Subsequent purchase payments or transfers directed to the
subaccounts will purchase subaccount accumulation units at the AUV next computed following our receipt of the
purchase payment or transfer request in good order. The AUV will vary day to day.

WITHDRAWALS  
 
You may withdraw all or a portion of your account value at any time during the accumulation phase (for contracts
issued in New York, partial withdrawals are not available in the first account year unless they are taken under a
systematic distribution option).  
 
Steps for Making a Withdrawal  
 
· Select the withdrawal amount.  
 
  (1 ) Full Withdrawal: You will receive, reduced by any required withholding tax, your account value
      allocated to the subaccounts, the Guaranteed Account (plus or minus any applicable market value
      adjustment) and the Fixed Account, minus any applicable early withdrawal charge and annual
      maintenance fee.  
 
  (2 ) Partial Withdrawal (Percentage or Specified Dollar Amount): You will receive, reduced by any
      required withholding tax, the amount you specify, subject to the value available in your account.
      However, the amount actually withdrawn from your account will be adjusted by any applicable early
      withdrawal charge and any positive or negative market value adjustment for amounts withdrawn from
      the Guaranteed Account. See Appendices I and II and the Guaranteed Account prospectus for more
      information about withdrawals from the Guaranteed Account and the Fixed Account.
 
· Select investment options. If you do not specify this, we will withdraw dollars in the same proportion as the
  values you hold in the various investment options from each investment option in which you have an
  account value.  
 
· Properly complete a disbursement form and deliver it to our Customer Service Center.
 
Calculation of Your Withdrawal. We determine your account value every normal business day after the close of
the New York Stock Exchange (normally at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time). We pay withdrawal amounts based on your
account value as of the next valuation after we receive a request for withdrawal in good order at our Customer
Service Center.  
 
Delivery of Payment. Payments for withdrawal requests will be made in accordance with SEC requirements.
Normally, your withdrawal amount will be sent no later than seven calendar days following our receipt of your
properly-completed disbursement form in good order.
 
Reinstating a Full Withdrawal. Within 30 days after a full withdrawal, if allowed by law and the contract, you
may elect to reinstate all or a portion of your withdrawal. We must receive any reinstated amounts within 60 days of
the withdrawal. We reserve the right, however, to accept a reinstatement election received more than 30 days after
the withdrawal and accept proceeds reinstated more than 60 days after the withdrawal. We will credit your account
for the amount reinstated based on the subaccount values next computed following our receipt of your request and
the amount to be reinstated. We will credit the amount reinstated proportionally for annual maintenance fees and
early withdrawal charges imposed at the time of withdrawal. We will deduct from the amounts reinstated any annual
maintenance fee which fell due after the withdrawal and before the reinstatement. We will reinstate in the same
investment options and proportions in place at the time of withdrawal. If you withdraw amounts from a series of the
ING GET U.S. Core Portfolio and then elect to reinstate them, we will reallocate your GET amounts among other
investment options in which you invested on a pro-rata basis. Previously, we would have reinstated them in an ING
GET U.S. Core Portfolio series that was then accepting deposits. However, since June 21, 2007, no new series of the
GET Fund are available. The reinstatement privilege may be used only once. Special rules apply to reinstatements of
amounts withdrawn from the Guaranteed Account (see Appendix I and the Guaranteed Account prospectus). We
will not credit your account for market value adjustments that we deducted at the time of your withdrawal or refund
any taxes that were withheld. Seek competent advice regarding the tax consequences associated with reinstatement.
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 23

 


 

SYSTEMATIC DISTRIBUTION OPTIONS  
 
Systematic distribution options may be exercised at any time during the accumulation phase. The following
systematic distribution options may be available:  
 
· SWO - Systematic Withdrawal Option. SWO is a series of automatic partial withdrawals from your
  account based on a payment method you select. Consider this option if you would like a periodic income
  while retaining investment flexibility for amounts accumulated in the account.
 
· ECO - Estate Conservation Option. ECO offers the same investment flexibility as SWO, but is designed
  for those who want to receive only the minimum distribution that the Tax Code requires each year. Under
  ECO we calculate the minimum distribution amount required by law, generally at age 70½, and pay you
  that amount once a year. ECO is not available under nonqualified contracts. An early withdrawal charge
  will not be deducted from and a market value adjustment will not be applied to any part of your account
  value paid under an ECO.  
 
· LEO - Life Expectancy Option. LEO provides for annual payments for a number of years equal to your life
  expectancy or the life expectancy of you and a designated beneficiary. It is designed to meet the
  substantially equal periodic payment exception to the 10% premature distribution penalty under Tax Code
  section 72. See “Federal Tax Considerations.”
 
Other Systematic Distribution Options. We may add additional systematic distribution options from time to time.
You may obtain additional information relating to any of the systematic distribution options from your sales
representative or by calling us at the number listed in “Contract Overview—Questions: Contacting the Company.”
 
Systematic Distribution Option Availability. Withdrawals under a systematic distribution option are limited to
your free withdrawal amount. See “Fees – Early Withdrawal Charge – Free Withdrawals.” If allowed by applicable
law, we may discontinue the availability of one or more of the systematic distribution options for new elections at
any time and/or to change the terms of future elections.
 
Eligibility for a Systematic Distribution Option. To determine if you meet the age and account value criteria and
to assess terms and conditions that may apply, contact your sales representative or the Company at the number listed
in “Contract Overview—Questions: Contacting the Company.”
 
Terminating a Systematic Distribution Option. You may revoke a systematic distribution option at any time by
submitting a written request to our Customer Service Center. ECO, once revoked, may not, unless allowed under the
Tax Code, be elected again.  
 
Charges and Taxation. When you elect a systematic distribution option your account value remains in the
accumulation phase and subject to the charges and deductions described in the “Fees” and “Fee Table” sections.
Taking a withdrawal under a systematic distribution option, or later revoking the option, may have tax
consequences. If you are concerned about tax implications, consult a qualified tax adviser before electing an option.

DEATH BENEFIT  
This section provides information about the death benefit during the accumulation phase. For death benefit
information applicable to the income phase, see “The Income Phase.”
Terms to Understand:  
Account Year/Account Anniversary: A period of 12 months measured from the date we established your account
and each anniversary of this date. Account anniversaries are measured from this date.
Annuitant(s): The person(s) on whose life(lives) or life expectancy(ies) the income phase payments are based.
Beneficiary(ies): The person(s) or entity(ies) entitled to receive death benefit proceeds under the contract.
Claim Date: The date proof of death and the beneficiary’s right to receive the death benefit are received in good
order at our Customer Service Center. Please contact our Customer Service Center to learn what information is
required for a request for payment of the death benefit to be in good order.
Contract Holder (You/Your): The contract holder of an individually owned contract or the certificate holder of a
group contract. The contract holder and annuitant may be the same person.
Market Value Adjustment: An adjustment that may be made to amounts withdrawn from the Guaranteed
Account. The adjustment may be positive or negative.
During the Accumulation Phase  
When is a Death Benefit Payable? During the accumulation phase a death benefit is payable when the contract
holder or the annuitant dies. If there are joint contract holders, the death benefit is payable when either one dies.
Who Receives Death Benefit Proceeds? If you would like certain individuals or entities to receive the death benefit
when it becomes payable, you may name them as your beneficiaries. However, if you are a joint contract holder and
you die, the beneficiary will automatically be the surviving joint contract holder. In this circumstance any other
beneficiary you have named will be treated as the primary or contingent beneficiary, as originally named, of the
surviving joint contract holder. The surviving joint contract holder may change that beneficiary designation. If you
die and no beneficiary exists, the death benefit will be paid in a lump sum to your estate.
Designating Your Beneficiary. You may designate a beneficiary on your application or by contacting your sales
representative or us as indicated in “Contract Overview - Questions: Contacting the Company.”
Death Benefit Amount  
Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit. If approved in your state, upon the death of the annuitant the death benefit
will be the greater of:  
(1) The account value on the claim date; or  
(2) The minimum guaranteed death benefit as of the date of death, adjusted for purchase payments made and
  any amounts deducted from your account (including withdrawals, payments made under an income phase
  payment plan and fees and expenses) since the date the minimum guaranteed death benefit was determined.
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 25

 


 

Determining the Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit. On the day we establish your account, the minimum
guaranteed death benefit equals the amount of your initial purchase payment. Thereafter, the minimum guaranteed
death benefit is determined once a year on the account anniversary (until the account anniversary immediately
before the annuitant’s 85th birthday) and equals the greater of:
 
(1) The minimum guaranteed death benefit as last determined, adjusted for any purchase payments made and
  any amounts deducted from your account (including withdrawals, payments made under an income phase
  payment plan and fees and expenses) since the date the minimum guaranteed death benefit was determined;
  or  
 
(2) Your account value on that account anniversary.
 
After the annuitant’s 85th birthday, the minimum guaranteed death benefit equals the minimum guaranteed death
benefit on the account anniversary immediately before the annuitant’s 85th birthday, adjusted for payments made
and any amounts deducted from your account (including withdrawals, payments made under an income phase
payment plan and fees and expenses) since that account anniversary.
 
Death Benefit Greater than the Account Value. If the alternative death benefit is greater than the account value as
of the date of death, the amount by which the death benefit exceeds the account value will be deposited and
allocated to the money market subaccount available under the contract, thereby increasing the account value
available to the beneficiary to an amount equal to the death benefit.
 
Prior to the election of a death benefit payment by the beneficiary, the account value will remain in the account and
continue to be affected by the investment performance of the investment option(s) selected. The beneficiary has the
right to allocate or transfer any amount to any available investment option (subject to a market value adjustment, as
applicable). The amount paid to the beneficiary will equal the adjusted account value on the day the payment is
processed. Unless your beneficiary elects 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 on this account may be less than under other settlement options, and the Company seeks to earn 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 law, you should see “Required Distributions upon Contract Owner’s 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 the Customer Service Center.
 
Death Benefit Amounts in Certain Cases  
 
If the Contract Holder is not the Annuitant. Under nonqualified contracts only, the alternative death benefit
described above will not apply if the contract holder who is not the annuitant dies. Rather, the death benefit proceeds
will be equal to the account value on the date the request for payment is received, plus or minus any market value
adjustment. An early withdrawal charge may apply to any full or partial payment of this death benefit.
 
If the spousal beneficiary continues the account at the death of the contract holder who was not the annuitant, the
annuitant will not change and the alternative death benefit described above will not apply on the death of the spousal
beneficiary. Rather, the death benefit proceeds will equal the account value on the date the request for payment is
received, plus or minus any market value adjustment, and minus any early withdrawal charge, if approved in your
state. If your state has not approved deduction of an early withdrawal charge in this situation, then an early
withdrawal charge will apply only to payments made since the death of the original contract holder/annuitant.
 
If the Spousal Beneficiary Continues the Account. If the spousal beneficiary continues the account at the death of
the contract holder who was also the annuitant, the spousal beneficiary will become the annuitant. In this
circumstance the death benefit payable at the death of a spousal beneficiary shall equal the account value on the date
the request for payment is received, plus or minus any market value adjustment and minus any applicable early
withdrawal charge applicable to payments made since the death of the original contract holder/annuitant.
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 26

 


 

Alternative Death Benefit. If the minimum guaranteed death benefit is not approved in your state, the following
death benefit will apply:  
 
Upon the death of the annuitant, the death benefit will be the greatest of:
 
(1 ) The total payments made to your account, adjusted for any amounts deducted from your account (including
    withdrawals, payments made under an income phase payment plan and fees and expenses);
 
(2 ) The highest account value on any account anniversary until the account anniversary immediately before the
    annuitant’s 75th birthday or date of death, whichever is earlier, adjusted for payments made and any
    amounts deducted from your account (including withdrawals, payments made under an income phase
    payment plan and fees and expenses) since that account anniversary; or
 
(3 ) The account value as of the date of death.  
 
Guaranteed Account. For amounts held in the Guaranteed Account, see Appendix I for a discussion of the
calculation of the death benefit.  
 
Death Benefit - Methods of Payment  
 
For Qualified Contracts. Under a qualified contract if the annuitant dies the beneficiary may choose one of the
following three methods of payment:  
 
·   Apply some or all of the account value, plus or minus any market value adjustment, to any of the income
    phase payment options (subject to the Tax Code distribution rules). See “Federal Tax Considerations;”
 
·   Receive, at any time, a lump-sum payment equal to all or a portion of the account value, plus or minus any
    market value adjustment; or  
 
·   Elect SWO or ECO or LEO (described in “Systematic Distribution Options”), provided the election would
    satisfy the Tax Code minimum distribution rules.
 
Payments from a Systematic Distribution Option. If the annuitant was receiving payments under a systematic
distribution option and died before the Tax Code’s required beginning date for minimum distributions, payments
under the systematic distribution option will stop. The beneficiary, or contract holder on behalf of the beneficiary,
may elect a systematic distribution option provided the election is permitted under the Tax Code minimum
distribution rules. If the annuitant dies after the required beginning date for minimum distributions, payments will
continue as permitted under the Tax Code minimum distribution rules, unless the option is revoked.
 
Distribution Requirements. Subject to Tax Code limitations, a beneficiary may be able to defer distribution of the
death benefit. Death benefit payments must satisfy the distribution rules in Tax Code Section 401(a)(9). See
“Federal Tax Considerations.”  
 
For Nonqualified Contracts.  
 
(1 ) If you die and the beneficiary is your surviving spouse, or if you are a non-natural person and the annuitant
    dies and the beneficiary is the annuitant’s surviving spouse, then the beneficiary becomes the successor
    contract holder. In this circumstance the Tax Code does not require distributions under the contract until the
    successor contract holder’s death.  
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 27

 


 

    As the successor contract holder, the beneficiary may exercise all rights under the account and has the  
    following options:    
    (a) Continue the contract in the accumulation phase;  
    (b) Elect to apply some or all of the account value, plus or minus any market value adjustment, to any of  
      the income phase payment options; or    
    (c) Receive at any time a lump-sum payment equal to all or a portion of the account value, plus or any  
      market value adjustment.    
    If you die and are not the annuitant, an early withdrawal charge will apply if a lump sum is elected.  
(2 ) If you die and the beneficiary is not your surviving spouse, he or she may elect option 1(b) or option 1(c)  
    above (subject to the Tax Code distribution rules).  
    In this circumstance the Tax Code requires any portion of the account value, plus or minus any market  
    value adjustment, not distributed in installments over the beneficiary’s life or life expectancy, beginning  
    within one year of your death, must be paid within five years of your death. See “Federal Tax  
    Considerations.”    
(3 ) If you are a natural person but not the annuitant and the annuitant dies, the beneficiary may elect option  
    1(b) or 1(c) above. If the beneficiary does not elect option 1(b) within 60 days from the date of death, the
    gain, if any, will be included in the beneficiary’s income in the year the annuitant dies.  
Payments from a Systematic Distribution Option. If the contract holder or annuitant dies and payments were  
made under SWO, payments will stop. A beneficiary, however, may elect to continue SWO.  
Taxation. In general, payments received by your beneficiary after your death are taxed to the beneficiary in the  
same manner as if you had received those payments. Additionally, your beneficiary may be subject to tax penalties  
if he or she does not begin receiving death benefit payments within the time-frame required by the Tax Code. See  
“Federal Tax Considerations.”    
 
THE INCOME PHASE    
During the income phase you stop contributing dollars to your account and start receiving payments from your  
accumulated account 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, 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 account will continue in the accumulation phase until you properly initiate income phase payments. Once an  
income phase payment option is selected it may not be changed.  
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 28  

 


 

What Affects Payment Amounts. Some of the factors that may affect the amount of your income phase payments
include your age, gender, account value, the income phase payment option selected, the number of guaranteed
payments (if any) selected and whether you select fixed, variable or a combination of both fixed and variable
payments and, for variable payments, the assumed net investment rate selected.
 
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.
 
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. See
“Contract Overview - Questions: Contacting the Company.”
 
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 account 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.
 
Restrictions on Start Dates and the Duration of Payments. Income phase payments may not begin during the
first account year, or, unless we consent, later than the later of:
 
(a) The first day of the month following the annuitant’s 85th birthday; or
 
(b) The tenth anniversary of the last purchase payment made to your account (fifth anniversary for contracts
  issued in Pennsylvania).  
 
Income phase payments will not begin until you have selected an income phase payment option. Failure to select an
income phase payment option by the later of the annuitant’s 85th birthday or the tenth anniversary of your last
purchase payment (the fifth anniversary for contracts issued in Pennsylvania) may have adverse tax consequences.
You should consult with a qualified tax adviser if you are considering either of these courses of action.
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 29

 


 

For qualified contracts only, income phase payments may not extend beyond:
 
(a) The life of the annuitant;  
 
(b) The joint lives of the annuitant and beneficiary;
 
(c) A guaranteed period greater than the annuitant’s life expectancy; or
 
(d) 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 95. For contracts issued in New York, income phase payments may not begin later than
the first day of the month following the annuitant’s 90th birthday.
 
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. We make a daily deduction for mortality and 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 this deduction from the subaccounts you select, even though we no longer assume any
mortality risks. We may also deduct a daily administrative charge from amounts held in the subaccounts. See
“Fees.”    
 
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 your beneficiary elects otherwise, the distribution will
generally be made into an interest bearing account, backed by our general account. Thjis 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 on this account may be less than interest paid on other
settlement options, and the Company seeks toearn a profit on these accounts. 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 holder. 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
account dollars, 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” for additional information.

Income Phase 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 under the contract.
 
Lifetime Income Phase Payment Options
Life Income Length of Payments: For as long as the annuitant lives. It is possible that only one payment
will be made if the annuitant dies prior to the second payment’s due date.
  Death Benefit - None: All payments end upon the annuitant’s death.
Life Income - Length of Payments: For as long as the annuitant lives, with payments guaranteed for your
Guaranteed choice of 5 to 30 years or as otherwise specified in the contract.
Payments Death Benefit - Payment to the Beneficiary: If the annuitant dies before we have made all
  the guaranteed payments, we will continue to pay the beneficiary the remaining payments,
  unless the beneficiary elects to receive a lump-sum payment equal to the present value of the
  remaining guaranteed payments.
Life Income - Length of Payments: For as long as either annuitant lives. It is possible that only one payment
Two Lives will be made if both annuitants die before the second payment’s due date.
  Continuing Payments: When you select this option you choose for:
  (a) 100%, 66 2/3% or 50% of the payment to continue to the surviving annuitant after the first
    death; or  
  (b) 100% of the payment to continue to the annuitant on the second annuitant’s death, and 50%

Two Lives - 30 years or as otherwise specified in the contract.
Guaranteed Continuing Payments: 100% of the payment to continue to the surviving annuitant after the
Payments first death.  
  Death Benefit - Payment to the Beneficiary: If both annuitants die before we have made all

  unless the beneficiary elects to receive a lump-sum payment equal to the present value of the
  remaining guaranteed payments.
Life Income -Cash Length of Payments: For as long as the annuitant lives.
Refund Option Death Benefit - Payment to the Beneficiary: Following the annuitant’s death, we will pay a

only)      
Nonlifetime Income Phase Payment Option

Nonlifetime - Length of Payments: You may select payments for 5 to 30 years. In certain cases a lump-sum
Guaranteed payment may be requested at any time (see below).
Payments Death Benefit - Payment to the Beneficiary: If the annuitant dies before we make all the
    guaranteed payments, we will continue to pay the beneficiary the remaining payments, unless
    the beneficiary elects to receive a lump-sum payment equal to the present value of the
    remaining guaranteed payments. We will not impose any early withdrawal charge.
Lump-Sum Payment: If the “Nonlifetime - Guaranteed Payments” option is elected with variable payments, you may
request at any time that all or a portion of the present value of the remaining payments be paid in one lump sum. Any
such lump-sum payment will be treated as a withdrawal during the accumulation phase and we will charge any
applicable early withdrawal charge. See “Fees - Early Withdrawal Charge.” Lump-sum payments will be sent within
seven calendar days after we receive the request for payment in good order at the Customer Service Center.
Calculation of Lump-Sum Payments: If a lump-sum payment is available under the income phase payment options
above, the rate used to calculate the present value of the remaining guaranteed payments is the same rate we used to
calculate the income phase payments (i.e., the actual fixed rate used for fixed payments or the 3½% or 5% assumed net
investment rate used for variable payments).  
 
 
 
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:    
 
· 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 premium payments 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
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.  
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 33

 


 

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 premium 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.  
 
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 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.  
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 35

 


 

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 (c) 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;    
· 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.    
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 38  

 


 

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;  
· The withdrawal amount is paid to an alternate payee under a QDRO; 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:    
 
· 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 Tax Code Section 403(b),
the Treasury Regulations, and, if applicable, the Plan under which the assets in your contract are covered. In  
accordance with Tax 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 Tax 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 Tax 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.    
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 39  

 


 

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.  
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 40  

 


 

  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.
 
  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.
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 41

 


 

  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 Guaranteed Minimum Income Feature
 
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 Guaranteed Minimum Income Feature 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.
 
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 tax advisor. In certain states, to the extent that an annuity contract or
certificate accords 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.

OTHER TOPICS  
 
Variable Annuity Account B  
 
We established Variable Annuity Account B (the “separate account”) in 1976 as a continuation of the separate
account established in 1974 under Arkansas Law of Aetna Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company. The separate
account was established as a segregated asset account to fund variable annuity contracts. The separate account is
registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “40 Act”). It also meets the
definition of “separate account” under the federal securities laws.
 
The separate account is divided into subaccounts. The subaccounts invest directly in shares of a pre-assigned fund.
 
Although we hold title to the assets of the separate account, such assets are not chargeable with the liabilities of any
other business that we conduct. Income, gains or losses of the separate account are credited to or charged against the
assets of the separate account without regard to other income, gains or losses of the Company. All obligations
arising under the contract are obligations of the Company.
 
The Company  
 
We issue the contract described in this prospectus and are responsible for providing each contract’s insurance and
annuity benefits.  
 
We are a stock life insurance company organized under the insurance laws of the State of Connecticut in 1976 and
an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ING Groep N.V., a global financial institution active in the fields of
insurance, banking and asset management. Through a merger our operations include the business of Aetna Variable
Annuity Life Insurance Company (formerly known as Participating Annuity Life Insurance Company, an Arkansas
life insurance company organized in 1954). Prior to January 1, 2002, the Company was known as Aetna Life
Insurance and Annuity Company. 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 ING Life Insurance and
Annuity Company.  
 
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 a combination thereof.
 
We are engaged in the business of selling life insurance and annuities. Our principal executive offices are located at:
 
One Orange Way
Windsor, Connecticut 06095-4774
 
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.
 
Contract Distribution    
 
The Company’s subsidiary, ING Financial Advisers, LLC, serves as the principal underwriter (distributor) for the
contracts. ING Financial Advisers, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, is registered as a broker-dealer with
the SEC. ING Financial Advisers, LLC is also a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.
(“FINRA”) and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. ING Financial Advisers, LLC’s principal office is
located at One Orange Way, Windsor, Connecticut 06095-4774.
 
This contract is no longer available for new purchasers.  
 
The contracts are offered to the public by individuals who are registered representatives of ING Financial Advisers,
LLC or other broker-dealers which have entered into a selling arrangement with ING Financial Advisers, LLC. We
refer to ING Financial Advisers, LLC and the other broker-dealers selling the contracts as “distributors.”
 
All registered representatives selling the contracts must also be licensed as insurance agents for the Company.
 
The following is a list of broker/dealers that are affiliated with the Company:
 
· ING Financial Partners, Inc. · Systematized Benefits Administrators, Inc.
 
Registered representatives of distributors who solicit sales of the contracts typically receive a portion of the
compensation paid to the distributor in the form of commissions or other compensation, depending upon the
agreement between the distributor 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 distributors through fees and charges imposed under the contracts.
 
Commission Payments. Persons who offer and sell the contracts may be paid a commission. The maximum
percentage amount that may be paid with respect to a given purchase payment is the first-year percentage which
ranges from 0% to a maximum of 7.0% of the first year of payments to an account. Renewal commissions paid on
payments made after the first year and asset-based service fees may also be paid. In addition, we may also pay
ongoing annual compensation of up to 1.00% of the commissions paid during the year in connection with certain
premium received during that year, if the registered representative attains a certain threshold of sales of Company
contracts. Individual registered representatives may receive all or a portion of compensation paid to their distributor,
depending upon the firm’s practices. Commissions and annual payments, when combined, could exceed 7.0% of
total premium payments. To the extent permitted by SEC and FINRA rules and other applicable laws and
regulations, we may also pay or allow other promotional incentives or payments in the form of cash payments or
other compensation to distributors, which may require the registered representative to attain a certain threshold of
sales of Company products.    
 
We may also enter into special compensation arrangements with certain distributors based on those firms’ aggregate
or anticipated sales of the contracts or other criteria. These special compensation arrangements will not be offered to
all distributors, and the terms of such arrangements may differ among distributors based on various factors. Any
such compensation payable to a distributor will not result in any additional direct charge to you by us.
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 44  

 


 

Some sales personnel may receive various types of non-cash compensation as special sales incentives, including
trips, and we may also pay for some sales personnel to attend educational and/or business seminars. Any such
compensation will be paid in accordance with SEC and FINRA rules. Management personnel of the Company, and
of its affiliated broker-dealers, may receive additional compensation if the overall amount of investments in funds
advised by the Company or its affiliates meets certain target levels or increases over time. Compensation for certain
management personnel, including sales management personnel, may be enhanced if the overall amount of
investments in the contracts and other products issued or advised by the Company or its affiliates increases over
time. Certain sales management personnel may also receive compensation that is a specific percentage of the
commissions paid to distributors or of purchase payments received under the contracts.
 
In addition to direct cash compensation for sales of contracts described above, ING Financial Advisers, LLC may
also pay distributors 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

  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 contracts.

top of the list.  
 
This is a general discussion of the types and levels of compensation paid by us for the sale of our variable annuity
contracts. It is important for you to know that the payment of volume- or sales-based compensation to a distributor
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.    
 
Payment Delay or Suspension  
 
We reserve the right to suspend or postpone the date of any payment of benefits or values under any one of the
following circumstances:  
· On any valuation date when the New York Stock Exchange is closed (except customary weekend and
  holiday closings) or when trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted;
 
· When an emergency exists as determined by the SEC so that disposal of the securities held in the
  subaccounts is not reasonably practicable or it is not reasonably practicable to fairly determine the value of
  the subaccount’s assets; or  
 
· During any other periods the SEC may by order permit for the protection of investors.
 
The conditions under which restricted trading or an emergency exists shall be determined by the rules and
regulations of the SEC.  
 
Voting Rights  
 
Each of the subaccounts holds shares in a fund and each is entitled to vote at regular and special meetings of that
fund. Under our current view of applicable law, we will vote the shares for each subaccount as instructed by persons
having a voting interest in the subaccount. If you are a contract holder under a group contract, you have a fully
vested interest in the contract and may instruct the group contract holder how to direct the Company to cast a certain
number of votes. We will vote shares for which instructions have not been received in the same proportion as those
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 46

 


 

for which we received instructions. Each person who has a voting interest in the separate account will receive
periodic reports relating to the funds in which he or she has an interest, as well as any proxy materials and a form on
which to give voting instructions. Voting instructions will be solicited by a written communication at least 14 days
before the meeting.  
 
The number of votes (including fractional votes) you are entitled to direct will be determined as of the record date
set by any fund you invest in through the subaccounts.
 
· During the accumulation phase the number of votes is equal to the portion of your account value invested
  in the fund, divided by the net asset value of one share of that fund.
 
· During the income phase the number of votes is equal to the portion of reserves set aside for the contract’s
  share of the fund, divided by the net asset value of one share of that fund.
 
Contract Modifications  
 
We may change the contract as required by federal or state law or as otherwise permitted in the contract. In addition,
we may, upon 30 days’ written notice to the group contract holder, make other changes to a group contract that
would apply only to individuals who become participants under that contract after the effective date of such
changes. If a group contract holder does not agree to a change, we reserve the right to refuse to establish new
accounts under the contract. Certain changes will require the approval of appropriate state or federal regulatory
authorities.  
 
Transfer of Ownership: Assignment  
 
We will accept assignments or transfers of ownership of a nonqualified contract or a qualified contract where such
assignments or transfers are not prohibited, with proper notification. The date of any assignment or transfer of
ownership will be the date we receive the notification at our Customer Service Center. An assignment or transfer of
ownership may have tax consequences and you should consult with a tax adviser before assigning or transferring
ownership of the contract.  
 
An assignment of a contract will only be binding on the Company if it is made in writing and sent to the Company at
our Customer Service Center. We will use reasonable procedures to confirm that the assignment is authentic,
including verification of signature. If we fail to follow our own procedures, we will be liable for any losses to you
directly resulting from such failure. Otherwise, we are not responsible for the validity of any assignment. The rights
of the contract holder and the interest of the annuitant and any beneficiary will be subject to the rights of any
assignee we have on our records.  
 
Involuntary Terminations  
 
We reserve the right to terminate any account with a value of $2,500 or less immediately following a partial
withdrawal. However, an IRA may only be closed out when payments to the contract have not been received for a
24-month period and the paid-up annuity benefit at maturity would be less than $20 per month. If such right is
exercised, you will be given 90 days’ advance written notice. No early withdrawal charge will be deducted for
involuntary terminations. We do not intend to exercise this right in cases where the account value is reduced to
$2,500 or less solely due to investment performance.  
 
Legal Proceedings  
 
We are not aware of any pending legal proceedings that involve the variable account 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
 
 
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP 47

 


 

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.
 
ING Financial Advisers, 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. ING Financial Advisers, 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.

APPENDIX I  
 
 
ILIAC GUARANTEED ACCOUNT
 
The ILIAC Guaranteed Account (the Guaranteed Account) is a fixed interest option available during the
accumulation phase under the contract. This Appendix is only a summary of certain facts about the
Guaranteed Account. Please read the Guaranteed Account prospectus carefully before investing in this
option.    
 
In General. Amounts invested in the Guaranteed Account earn specified interest rates if left in the Guaranteed
Account for specified periods of time. If you withdraw or transfer those amounts before the specified periods elapse,
we may apply a market value adjustment (described below) which may be positive or negative.
 
· When deciding to invest in the Guaranteed Account, contact your sales representative or the Company to
  learn: The interest rate(s) we will apply to amounts invested in the Guaranteed Account. We change the
  rate(s) periodically. Be certain you know the rate we guarantee on the day your account dollars are invested
  in the Guaranteed Account. Guaranteed interest rates will never be less than an annual effective rate of 3%.
 
· The period of time your account dollars need to remain in the Guaranteed Account in order to earn the
  rate(s). You are required to leave your account dollars in the Guaranteed Account for a specified period of
  time in order to earn the guaranteed interest rate(s).
 
Deposit Period. During a deposit period, we offer a specific interest rate for dollars invested for a certain
guaranteed term. For a specific interest rate and guaranteed term to apply, account dollars must be invested in the
Guaranteed Account during the deposit period for which that rate and term are offered.
 
Interest Rates. We guarantee different interest rates, depending upon when account dollars are invested in the
Guaranteed Account. For guaranteed terms one year or longer, we may apply more than one specified interest rate.
The interest rate we guarantee is an annual effective yield. That means the rate reflects a full year’s interest. We
credit interest daily at a rate that will provide the guaranteed annual effective yield over one year. Guaranteed
interest rates will never be less than an annual effective rate of 3%. Among other factors, the safety of the interest
rate guarantees depends upon the Company’s claims-paying ability.
 
Guaranteed Terms. The guaranteed term is the period of time account dollars must be left in the Guaranteed
Account in order to earn the guaranteed interest rate. For guaranteed terms one year or longer, we may offer
different rates for specified time periods within a guaranteed term. We offer different guaranteed terms at different
times. We also may offer more than one guaranteed term of the same duration with different interest rates. Check
with your sales representative or our Customer Service Center to learn what terms are being offered. The Company
also reserves the right to limit the number of guaranteed terms or the availability of certain guaranteed terms.
 
Fees and Other Deductions. If all or a portion of your account value in the Guaranteed Account is withdrawn or
transferred, you may incur one or more of the following:
 
· Market Value Adjustment (MVA) - as described in this appendix and in the Guaranteed Account
  prospectus;  
 
· Tax penalties and/or tax withholding - see “Federal Tax Considerations;”
 
· Early withdrawal charge - see “Fees;” or  
 
· Maintenance fee - see “Fees.”  
 
We do not make deductions from amounts in the Guaranteed Account to cover mortality and expense risks. Rather,
we consider these risks when determining the interest rate to be credited.
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP I-1

 


 

Market Value Adjustment (MVA). If your account value is withdrawn or transferred from the Guaranteed
Account before the guaranteed term is completed, an MVA may apply. The MVA reflects investment value changes
caused by changes in interest rates occurring since the date of deposit. The MVA may be positive or negative.
 
If interest rates at the time of withdrawal or transfer have increased since the date of deposit, the value of the
investment decreases and the MVA will be negative. This could result in your receiving less than the amount you
paid into the Guaranteed Account. If interest rates at the time of withdrawal or transfer have decreased since the date
of deposit, the value of the investment increases and the MVA will be positive.
 
MVA Waiver. For withdrawals or transfers from a guaranteed term before the guaranteed term matures, the MVA
may be waived for:  
 
· Transfers due to participation in the dollar cost averaging program;
 
· Withdrawals taken due to your election of SWO or ECO (described in “Systematic Distribution Options”),
  if available;  
 
· Withdrawals for minimum distributions required by the Tax Code and for which the early withdrawal
  charge is waived; and  
 
· Withdrawals due to your exercise of the right to cancel your contract (described in “Right to Cancel”).
 
Death Benefit. When a death benefit is paid under the contract within six months of the date of death, only a
positive aggregate MVA amount, if any, is applied to the account value attributable to amounts withdrawn from the
Guaranteed Account. This provision does not apply upon the death of a spousal beneficiary or joint contract holder
who continued the account after the first death. If a death benefit is paid more than six months from the date of
death, a positive or negative aggregate MVA amount, as applicable, will be applied, except under certain contracts
issued in the State of New York.  
 
Partial Withdrawals. For partial withdrawals during the accumulation phase, amounts to be withdrawn from the
Guaranteed Account will be withdrawn pro-rata from each group of deposits having the same length of time until
the maturity date (“Guaranteed Term Group”). Within each Guaranteed Term Group, the amount will be withdrawn
first from the oldest deposit period, then from the next oldest and so on until the amount requested is satisfied.
 
Guaranteed Terms Maturity. As a guaranteed term matures, assets accumulating under the Guaranteed Account
may be (a) transferred to a new guaranteed term, (b) transferred to other available investment options, or (c)
withdrawn. Amounts withdrawn may be subject to an early withdrawal charge, taxation and, if you are under age
59½, tax penalties may apply.  
 
If no direction is received from you at our Customer Service Center by the maturity date of a guaranteed term, the
amount from the maturing guaranteed term will be transferred to a new guaranteed term of a similar length. If the
same guaranteed term is no longer available, the next shortest guaranteed term available in the current deposit period
will be used. If no shorter guaranteed term is available, the next longer guaranteed term will be used.
 
If you do not provide instructions concerning the maturity value of a maturing guaranteed term, the maturity value
transfer provision applies. This provision allows transfers or withdrawals without an MVA if the transfer or
withdrawal occurs during the calendar month immediately following a guaranteed term maturity date. This waiver
of the MVA only applies to the first transaction regardless of the amount involved in the transaction.
 
Under the Guaranteed Account each guaranteed term is counted as one funding option. If a guaranteed term matures
and is renewed for the same term, it will not count as an additional investment option for purposes of any limitation
on the number of investment options.  
 
Subsequent Purchase Payments. Purchase payments received after your initial purchase payment to the
Guaranteed Account will be allocated in the same proportions as the last allocation, unless you properly instruct us
 
 
ILIAC Marathon Plus – INGMARP I-2

 


 

to do otherwise. If the same guaranteed term(s) is not available, the next shortest term will be used. If no shorter
guaranteed term is available, the next longer guaranteed term will be used.
 
Dollar Cost Averaging. The Company may offer more than one guaranteed term of the same duration and credit
one with a higher rate contingent upon use only with the dollar cost averaging program. If amounts are applied to a
guaranteed term which is credited with a higher rate using dollar cost averaging and the dollar cost averaging is
discontinued, the amounts will be transferred to another guaranteed term of the same duration and an MVA will
apply.  
 
Transfer of Account Dollars. Generally, account dollars invested in the Guaranteed Account may be transferred
among guaranteed terms offered through the Guaranteed Account and/or to other investment options offered through
the contract. However, transfers may not be made during the deposit period in which your account dollars are
invested in the Guaranteed Account or for 90 days after the close of that deposit period. We will apply an MVA to
transfers made before the end of a guaranteed term. The 90-day wait does not apply to (1) amounts transferred on
the maturity date or under the maturity value transfer provision; (2) amounts transferred from the Guaranteed
Account before the maturity date due to the election of an income phase payment option; (3) amounts distributed
under the ECO or SWO (see “Systematic Distribution Options”); and (4) amounts transferred from an available
guaranteed term in connection with the dollar cost averaging program.
 
Transfers after the 90-day period are permitted from guaranteed term(s) to other guaranteed term(s) available during
a deposit period or to other available investment options. Transfers of the Guaranteed Account values on or within
one calendar month of a term’s maturity date are not counted as one of the 12 free transfers of accumulated values in
the account.  
 
Reinstating Amounts Withdrawn from the Guaranteed Account. If amounts are withdrawn and then reinstated
in the Guaranteed Account, we apply the reinstated amount to the current deposit period. This means the guaranteed
annual interest rate and guaranteed terms available on the date of reinstatement will apply. We reinstate amounts
proportionately in the same way as they were allocated before withdrawal. We will not credit your account for
market value adjustments that we deducted at the time of withdrawal or refund any taxes that were withheld.
 
The Income Phase. The Guaranteed Account cannot be used as an investment option during the income phase.
However, you may notify us at least 30 days in advance to elect a fixed or variable payment option and to transfer
your Guaranteed Account dollars to the general account or any of the subaccounts available during the income
phase. Transfers made due to the election of a lifetime income phase payment option will be subject to only a
positive aggregate MVA.  
 
Distribution. The Company’s subsidiary, ING Financial Advisers, LLC (“ING Financial”) serves as the principal
underwriter of the contract. ING Financial, a Delaware limited liability company, is registered with the Securities
and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a broker-dealer and is a member of the
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. From time to time ING
Financial may offer customers of certain broker-dealers special guaranteed rates in connection with the Guaranteed
Account offered through the contract and may negotiate different commissions for these broker-dealers.

APPENDIX II  
 
 
FIXED ACCOUNT
 
General Disclosure.  
· The Fixed Account is an investment option available during the accumulation phase under the contract.
· Amounts allocated to the Fixed Account are held in the Company’s general account which supports
  insurance and annuity obligations.  
· Interests in the Fixed Account have not been registered with the SEC in reliance on exemptions under the
  Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  
· Disclosure in this prospectus regarding the Fixed Account may be subject to certain generally applicable
  provisions of the federal securities laws relating to the accuracy and completeness of the statements.
· Disclosure in this appendix regarding the Fixed Account has not been reviewed by the SEC.
· Additional information about this option may be found in the contract.
 
Interest Rates.  
· The Fixed Account guarantees that amounts allocated to this option will earn the minimum interest rate
  specified in the contract. We may credit a higher interest rate from time to time, but the rate we credit will
  never fall below the guaranteed minimum specified in the contract. Amounts applied to the Fixed Account
  will earn the interest rate in effect at the time money is applied. Amounts in the Fixed Account will reflect a
  compound interest rate as credited by us. The rate we quote is an annual effective yield. Among other
  factors, the safety of the interest rate guarantees depends upon the Company’s claims-paying ability.
 
· Our determination of credited interest rates reflects a number of factors, including mortality and expense
  risks, interest rate guarantees, the investment income earned on invested assets and the amortization of any
  capital gains and/or losses realized on the sale of invested assets. Under this option we assume the risk of
  investment gain or loss by guaranteeing the amounts you allocate to this option and promising a minimum
  interest rate and income phase payment.
 
Dollar Cost Averaging. Amounts you invest in the Fixed Account must be transferred into the other investment
options available under the contract over a period not to exceed 12 months. If you discontinue dollar cost averaging,
the remaining balance amounts in the Fixed Account will be transferred into the money market subaccount available
under the contract, unless you direct us to transfer the balance into other available options.
 
Withdrawals. Under certain emergency conditions we may defer payment of any withdrawal for a period of up to
six months or as provided by federal law.  
 
Charges. We do not make deductions from amounts in the Fixed Account to cover mortality and expense risks. We
consider these risks when determining the credited rate. If you make a withdrawal from amounts in the Fixed
Account, an early withdrawal charge may apply. See “Fees.”
 
Transfers. During the accumulation phase you may transfer account dollars from the Fixed Account to any other
available investment option. We may vary the dollar amount that you are allowed to transfer, but it will never be less
than 10% of your account value held in the Fixed Account.
 
By notifying the Customer Service Center at least 30 days before income phase payments begin, you may elect to
have amounts transferred to one or more of the subaccounts available during the income phase to provide variable
payments.

APPENDIX III  
 
DESCRIPTION OF UNDERLYING FUNDS
 
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. 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, 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 email address
shown on the front of the fund’s summary prospectus. You may also obtain a prospectus or SAI for any of the funds
by calling that number.  
 
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 offered in a "master-feeder" or “fund of funds” structure and may have higher fees and expenses than a fund that
invests directly in debt and equity securities. The "master-feeder" and “fund of funds” available under the contract are identified in the
list of investment portfolios toward the front of this prospectus.
 
Consult with your investment professional to determine if the portfolios may be suited to your financial needs,
investment time horizon and risk tolerance level. You should periodically review these factors to determine if you
need to change your investment strategy.

GENERAL INFORMATION AND HISTORY
 
ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company (the “Company,” we, us, our) is a stock life insurance company which
was organized under the insurance laws of the State of Connecticut in 1976. Prior to January 1, 2002, the Company
was known as Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company. Through a merger, it succeeded to the business of Aetna
Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company (formerly Participating Annuity Life Insurance Company organized in
1954).
 
The Company is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of ING Groep N.V., a global financial institution active in the
fields of insurance, banking and asset management and is a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut
Holdings Inc. The Company is engaged in the business of issuing life insurance policies and annuity contracts. Our
Home Office is located at One Orange Way, Windsor, Connecticut 06095-4774.
 
The Company serves as the depositor for the separate account.
 
Other than the mortality and expense risk charge and administrative expense charge, described in the prospectus, all
expenses incurred in the operations of the separate account are borne by the Company. However, the Company does
receive compensation for certain administrative or distribution costs from the funds or affiliates of the funds used as
funding options under the contract. (See “Fees” in the prospectus).
 
The assets of the separate account are held by the Company. The separate account has no custodian. However, the
funds in whose shares the assets of the separate account are invested each have custodians, as discussed in their
respective prospectuses.
 
From this point forward, the term “contract(s)” refers only to those offered through the prospectus.
 
 
VARIABLE ANNUITY ACCOUNT B
 
Variable Annuity Account 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. 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 contract. 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, under all contracts, or under all plans.
 
A complete description of each fund, including its investment objective, policies, risks and fees and expenses, is
contained in the fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information.
 
 
OFFERING AND PURCHASE OF CONTRACTS
 
The Company’s subsidiary, ING Financial Advisers, LLC serves as the principal underwriter for contracts. ING
Financial Advisers, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, is registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC. ING
Financial Advisers, LLC is also a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority and the Securities Investor
Protection Corporation. ING Financial Advisers, LLC’s principal office is located at One Orange Way, Windsor,
Connecticut 06095-4774. ING Financial Advisers, LLC offers the securities under the Contracts on a continuous
basis, however, the Contract is no longer available to new purchasers. A description of the manner in which
contracts are purchased may be found in the prospectus under the sections entitled “Contract Ownership and Rights”
and “Your Account Value.”
 
Compensation paid to the principal underwriter, ING Financial Advisers, LLC, for the years ending December 31,
2010, 2009 and 2008 amounted to $1,947,487.78, $1,658,134.85 and 2,501,353.46, respectively. These amounts
reflect compensation paid to ING Financial Advisers, LLC attributable to regulatory and operating expenses
associated with the distribution of all registered variable annuity products issued by Variable Annuity Account B of
ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company.

INCOME PHASE PAYMENTS
 
When you begin receiving payments under the contract during the income phase (see “Income Phase” in the
prospectus), the value of your account is determined using accumulation unit values as of the tenth valuation before
the first income phase payment is due. Such value (less any applicable premium tax charge) is applied to provide
payments to you in accordance with the income phase payment option and investment options elected.
 
The annuity option tables found in the contract show, for each option, the amount of the first payment for each
$1,000 of value applied. Thereafter, variable payments fluctuate as the Annuity Unit value(s) fluctuates with the
investment experience of the selected investment option(s). The first and subsequent payments also vary depending
on the assumed net investment rate selected (3.5% or 5% per annum). Selection of a 5% rate causes a higher first
payment, but payments will increase thereafter only to the extent that the net investment rate increases by more than
5% on an annual basis. Payments would decline if the rate failed to increase by 5%. Use of the 3.5% assumed rate
causes a lower first income phase payment, but subsequent income phase payments would increase more rapidly or
decline more slowly as changes occur in the net investment rate.
 
When the income phase begins, the annuitant is credited with a fixed number of Annuity Units (which does not
change thereafter) in each of the designated investment options. This number is calculated by dividing (a) by (b),
where (a) is the amount of the first payment based upon a particular investment option, and (b) is the then current
Annuity Unit value for that investment option. As noted, Annuity Unit values fluctuate from one valuation to the
next (see “Account Value” in the prospectus); such fluctuations reflect changes in the net investment factor for the
appropriate subaccount(s) (with a ten day valuation lag which gives the Company time to process payments) and a
mathematical adjustment which offsets the assumed net investment rate of 3.5% or 5% per annum.
 
The operation of all these factors can be illustrated by the following hypothetical example. These procedures will be
performed separately for the investment options selected during the income phase.
 
EXAMPLE:
 
Assume that, at the date payments are to begin, there are 3,000 accumulation units credited under a
particular contract or account and that the value of an accumulation unit for the tenth valuation prior to
retirement was $13.650000. This produces a total value of $40,950.
 
Assume also that no premium tax charge is payable and that the annuity table in the contract provides, for the
payment option elected, a first monthly variable payment of $6.68 per $1,000 of value applied; the annuitant’s first
monthly payment would thus be 40.950 multiplied by $6.68, or $273.55.
 
Assume then that the value of an Annuity Unit upon the valuation on which the first payment was due was
$13.400000. When this value is divided into the first monthly payment, the number of Annuity Units is determined
to be 20.414. The value of this number of Annuity Units will be paid in each subsequent month.
 
Suppose there were 30 days between the initial and second payment valuation dates. If the net investment factor
with respect to the appropriate subaccount is 1.0032737 as of the tenth valuation preceding the due date of the
second monthly income phase payment, multiplying this factor by .9971779* = .9999058^30 (to take into account
30 days of the assumed net investment rate of 3.5% per annum built into the number of Annuity Units determined
above) produces a result of 1.000442. This is then multiplied by the Annuity Unit value for the prior valuation
($13.400000 from above) to produce an Annuity Unit value of $13.405928 for the valuation occurring when the
second income phase payment is due.
 
The second monthly income phase payment is then determined by multiplying the number of Annuity Units by the
current Annuity Unit value, or 20.414 times $13.405928, which produces a payment of $273.67.
 
*If an assumed net investment rate of 5% is elected, the appropriate factor to take into account such assumed rate
would be .9959968 = .9998663^30.

SALES MATERIAL AND ADVERTISING
 
We may include hypothetical illustrations in our sales literature that explain the mathematical principles of dollar
cost averaging, compounded interest, tax deferred accumulation, and the mechanics of variable annuity contracts.
We may also discuss the difference between variable annuity contracts and other types of savings or investment
products such as, personal savings accounts and certificates of deposit.
 
We may distribute sales literature that compares the percentage change in accumulation unit values for any of the
subaccounts to established market indices such as the Standard & Poor’s 500 Stock Index and the Dow Jones
Industrial Average or to the percentage change in values of other management investment companies that have
investment objectives similar to the subaccount being compared.
 
We may publish in advertisements and reports, the ratings and other information assigned to us by one or more
independent rating organizations such as A.M. Best Company, Standard & Poor’s Corporation and Moody’s
Investors Service, Inc. The purpose of the ratings is to reflect our financial strength and/or claims-paying ability. We
may also quote ranking services such as Morningstar’s Variable Annuity/Life Performance Report and Lipper’s
Variable Insurance Products Performance Analysis Service (VIPPAS), which rank variable annuity or life
subaccounts or their underlying funds by performance and/or investment objective. We may categorize funds in
terms of the asset classes they represent and use such categories in marketing material for the contracts. We may
illustrate in advertisements the performance of the underlying funds, if accompanied by performance which also
shows the performance of such funds reduced by applicable charges under the separate account. We may also show
in advertisements the portfolio holdings of the underlying funds, updated at various intervals. From time to time, we
will quote articles from newspapers and magazines or other publications or reports such as The Wall Street Journal,
Money magazine, USA Today and The VARDS Report.
 
We may provide in advertising, sales literature, periodic publications or other materials information on various
topics of interest to current and prospective contract holders or participants. These topics may include the
relationship between sectors of the economy and the economy as a whole and its effect on various securities
markets, investment strategies and techniques (such as value investing, market timing, dollar cost averaging, asset
allocation, constant ratio transfer and account rebalancing), the advantages and disadvantages of investing in tax-
deferred and taxable investments, customer profiles and hypothetical purchase and investment scenarios, financial
management and tax and retirement planning, and investment alternatives to certificates of deposit and other
financial instruments, including comparison between the contracts and the characteristics of and market for such
financial instruments.

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 Variable Annuity Account B of ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company 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.

VARIABLE ANNUITY ACCOUNT B OF
ING LIFE INSURANCE AND ANNUITY COMPANY
Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization

Variable Annuity Account B of ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company (the “Account”) was established by ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company (“ILIAC” or the “Company”) to support the operations of variable annuity contracts (“Contracts”). The Company 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.

The Account is registered as a unit investment trust with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Account is exclusively for use with Contracts that may be entitled to tax-deferred treatment under specific sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. ILIAC provides for variable accumulation and benefits under the Contracts by crediting annuity considerations to one or more divisions within the Account or the 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 ILIAC may conduct, but obligations of the Account, including the promise to make benefit payments, are obligations of ILIAC. Under applicable insurance law, the assets and liabilities of the Account are clearly identified and distinguished from the other assets and liabilities of ILIAC.

At December 31, 2010, the Account had 137 investment divisions (the “Divisions”), 34 of which invest in independently managed mutual funds and 103 of which invest in mutual funds managed by affiliates, either Directed Services LLC (“DSL”), or ING Investments, LLC (“IIL”).

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.

VARIABLE ANNUITY ACCOUNT B OF
ING LIFE INSURANCE AND ANNUITY COMPANY
Notes to Financial Statements

 

Federal Income Taxes

Operations of the Account form a part of, and are taxed with, the total operations of ILIAC, 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 ILIAC.

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 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, ILIAC will contribute additional funds to the benefit proceeds. Conversely, if amounts allocated exceed amounts required, transfers may be made to ILIAC. Prior to the annuity date, the Contracts are redeemable for the net cash surrender value of the Contracts.

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) ILIAC related to gains and losses resulting from actual mortality experience (the full responsibility for which is assumed by ILIAC). Any net unsettled transactions as of the reporting date are included in Due 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 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

104


 

VARIABLE ANNUITY ACCOUNT B OF
ING LIFE INSURANCE AND ANNUITY COMPANY
Notes to Financial Statements

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.

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.

105


 

VARIABLE ANNUITY ACCOUNT B OF
ING LIFE INSURANCE AND ANNUITY COMPANY
Notes to Financial Statements

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 ILIAC’s expenses in connection with the issuance and administration of the Contracts. Following is a summary of these charges:

Mortality and Expense Risk Charges

ILIAC 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 1.50% 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 up to 0.25% of the assets attributable to the Contracts.

106


 

VARIABLE ANNUITY ACCOUNT B OF
ING LIFE INSURANCE AND ANNUITY COMPANY
Notes to Financial Statements

Contract Maintenance Charges

An annual Contract maintenance fee of up to $40 may be deducted from the accumulation value of Contracts to cover ongoing administrative expenses, as specified in the Contract.

Contingent Deferred Sales Charges

For certain Contracts, a contingent deferred sales charge (“Surrender Charge”) is imposed as a percentage that ranges up to 7.00% of each premium payment if the Contract is surrendered or an excess partial withdrawal is taken, as specified in the Contract.

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 4.00% of premiums.

Other Contract Charges

Under the Fixed/Variable Single Premium Immediate Annuity contract, an additional annual charge of 1.00% is deducted daily from the accumulation values for contractowners who select the Guaranteed Minimum Income feature. For Deferred Variable Annuity contracts, an additional annual charge of up to 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 0.50% is deducted daily from the accumulation values for contractowners who select the Premium Bonus Option feature.

Fees Waived by ILIAC

Certain charges and fees for various types of Contracts are currently waived by ILIAC. ILIAC reserves the right to discontinue these waivers at its discretion or to conform with changes in the law.

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 Money Market 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 the average net assets of each respective Fund.

Management fees were also paid indirectly to DSL, an affiliate of the Company, in its capacity as investment manager to ING Investors Trust and ING Partners, Inc. The Trusts’ advisory agreement provided for fees at annual rates ranging up to 1.25% of the average net assets of each respective Fund.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

The Board of Directors

ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholder’s equity, 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 include 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.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company and subsidiaries at December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, in 2009 the Company changed its method of accounting for the recognition and presentation of other-than-temporary impairments.

1.                                    Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company (“ILIAC”) is a stock life insurance company domiciled in the state of Connecticut. ILIAC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) are providers of financial products and services in the United States.  ILIAC is authorized to conduct its insurance business in all states and the District of Columbia.

 

The consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, include ILIAC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, ING Financial Advisers, LLC (“IFA”) and Directed Services LLC (“DSL”).  ILIAC is a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc. (“Lion” or “Parent”), which is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of ING Groep N.V. (“ING”). ING is a global financial services holding company based in the Netherlands, with American Depository Shares listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “ING.”

 

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, sales, or a combination thereof. 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.

 

Description of Business

 

The Company offers qualified and nonqualified annuity contracts that include a variety of funding and payout options for individuals and employer-sponsored retirement plans qualified under Internal Revenue Code Sections 401, 403, 408, and 457, as well as nonqualified deferred compensation plans. The Company’s products are offered primarily to individuals, pension plans, small businesses, and employer-sponsored groups in the health care, government, and education markets (collectively “not-for-profit” organizations) and corporate markets. The Company’s products are generally distributed through pension professionals, independent agents and brokers, third party administrators, banks, dedicated career agents, and financial planners.

 

Products offered by the Company include deferred and immediate (payout annuities) annuity contracts.  Company products also include programs offered to qualified plans and nonqualified deferred compensation plans that package administrative and record-keeping services along with a variety of investment options, including affiliated and nonaffiliated mutual funds and variable and fixed investment options. In addition, the

Company offers wrapper agreements entered into with retirement plans, which contain certain benefit responsive guarantees (i.e., liquidity guarantees of principal and previously accrued interest for benefits paid under the terms of the plan) with respect to portfolios of plan-owned assets not invested with the Company. The Company also offers pension and retirement savings plan administrative services.

 

The Company has one operating segment.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

 

Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses

 

In July 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-20, “Receivables (Accounting Standards CodificationTM (“ASC”) Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses” (“ASU 2010-20”), which requires certain existing disclosures to be disaggregated by class of financing receivable, including the rollforward of the allowance for credit losses, with the ending balance further disaggregated on the basis of impairment method.  For each disaggregated ending balance, an entity is required to also disclose the related recorded investment in financing receivables, the nonaccrual status of financing receivables, and impaired financing receivables.

 

ASU 2010-20 also requires new disclosures by class of financing receivable, including credit quality indicators, aging of past due amounts, the nature and extent of troubled debt restructurings and related defaults, and significant purchases and sales of financing receivables disaggregated by portfolio segment.

 

In January 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-01, which temporarily delays the effective date of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings in ASU 2010-20.

 

The provisions of ASU 2010-20 were adopted by the Company on December 31, 2010, and are included in the Financial Instruments footnote to the consolidated financial statements, as well as the Reinsurance section below, except for the disclosures that include information for activity that occurs during a reporting period, which are effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2010, and the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings.  As the pronouncement only pertains to additional disclosure, the adoption had no effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives

 

In March 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-11, “Derivatives and Hedging (ASC Topic 815): Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives” (“ASU 2010-11”), which clarifies that the only type of embedded credit derivatives that are exempt from

 

C-11

(A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

bifurcation requirements are those that relate to the subordination of one financial instrument to another.

 

The provisions of ASU 2010-11 were adopted by the Company on July 1, 2010.  The Company determined, however, that there was no effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows upon adoption, as the guidance is consistent with that previously applied by the Company under ASC Topic 815.

 

Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements

 

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure (ASC 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 Company on January 1, 2010, and are included in the Financial Instruments footnote to the consolidated financial statements, 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.  As the pronouncement only pertains to additional disclosure, the adoption had no effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary

 

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-02 “Consolidations (ASC Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary – a Scope Clarification,” (“ASU 2010-02”), which clarifies that the scope of the decrease in ownership provisions applies to the following:

 

C-12



 

ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company and Subsidiaries

(A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

§                             A subsidiary or group of assets that is a business or nonprofit activity;

§                             A subsidiary that is a business or nonprofit activity that is transferred to an equity method investee or joint venture; and

§                       An exchange of a group of assets that constitutes a business or nonprofit activity for a noncontrolling interest in an entity (including an equity method investee or joint venture).

 

ASU 2010-02 also notes that the decrease in ownership guidance does not apply to sales of in substance real estate and expands disclosure requirements.

 

The provisions of ASU 2010-02 were adopted, retrospectively, by the Company on January 1, 2010.  The Company determined, however, that there was no effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, or 2008, as there were no decreases in ownership of a subsidiary during those periods.

 

Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved in Variable Interest Entities

 

In December 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-17, “Consolidations (ASC Topic 810): Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved in Variable Interest Entities,” (“ASU 2009-17”), which eliminates the exemption for qualifying special-purpose entities (“QSPEs”), as well as amends the consolidation guidance for variable interest entities (“VIEs”), as follows:

 

§                          Removes the quantitative-based assessment for consolidation of VIEs and, instead, requires a qualitative assessment of whether an entity has the power to direct the VIE’s activities, and whether the entity has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to reserve benefits that could be significant to the VIE; and

§                             Requires an ongoing reassessment of whether an entity is the primary beneficiary of a VIE.

 

In addition, in February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-10, “Consolidation (ASC Topic 810): Amendments for Certain Investment Funds” (ASU 2010-10), which primarily defers to ASU 2009-17 for an investment in an entity that is accounted for as an investment company.

 

The provisions of ASU 2009-17 and ASU 2010-10 were adopted on January 1, 2010. The Company determined, however, that there was no effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows upon adoption, as the consolidation conclusions were consistent with those under previous accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”). The disclosure provisions required by ASU 2009-17 are presented in the Financial Instruments footnote to these consolidated financial statements.

Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets

 

In December 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-16 “Transfers and Servicing (ASC Topic 860): Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets” (“ASU 2009-16”), which eliminates the QSPE concept and requires a transferor of financial assets to:

 

§                             Consider the transferor’s continuing involvement in assets, limiting the circumstances in which a financial asset should be derecognized when the transferor has not transferred the entire asset to an entity that is not consolidated;

§                             Account for the transfer as a sale only if an entity transfers an entire financial asset and surrenders control, unless the transfer meets the conditions for a participating interest; and

§                             Recognize and initially measure at fair value all assets obtained and liabilities incurred as a result of a transfer of financial assets accounted for as a sale.

 

The provisions of ASU 2009-16 were adopted on January 1, 2010. The Company determined, however, that there was no effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows upon adoption, as the Company did not have any QSPEs under previous US GAAP, and the requirements for sale accounting treatment are consistent with those previously applied by the Company under US GAAP.

 

Measuring the Fair Value of Certain Alternative Investments

 

In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-12, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC Topic 820): Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent)” (“ASU 2009-12”), which allows the use of net asset value to estimate the fair value of certain alternative investments, such as interests in hedge funds, private equity funds, real estate funds, venture capital funds, offshore fund vehicles, and funds of funds.  In addition, ASU 2009-12 requires disclosures about the attributes of such investments.

 

The provisions of ASU 2009-12 were adopted by the Company on December 31, 2009.  The Company determined, however, that there was no effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows upon adoption, as its guidance is consistent with that previously applied by the Company under US GAAP.  The disclosure provisions required by ASU 2009-12 are presented in the Investments footnote to these consolidated financial statements.

 

Subsequent Events

 

In May 2009, the FASB issued new guidance on subsequent events, included in ASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events,” which establishes:

 

C-14



 

ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company and Subsidiaries

(A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

§

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 Company 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 a Securities and Exchange Commission (“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 Company determined that there was no effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows upon adoption, as the guidance is consistent with that previously applied by the Company under U.S. auditing standards. The disclosure provisions included in ASC Topic 855, as amended, are presented in the Organization and Significant Accounting Policies footnote to these consolidated financial statements.

 

Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments

 

In April 2009, the FASB issued new guidance on recognition and presentation of other-than-temporary impairments, included in ASC Topic 320, “Investments-Debt and Equity Securities,” which requires:

 

§

Noncredit related impairments to be recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), if management asserts that it does not have the intent to sell the security and that it is more likely than not that the entity will not have to sell the security before recovery of the amortized cost basis;

§

Total other-than-temporary impairments (“OTTI”) to be presented in the Statement of Operations with an offset recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the noncredit related impairments;

§

A cumulative effect adjustment as of the beginning of the period of adoption to reclassify the noncredit component of a previously recognized other-than-temporary impairment from Retained earnings (deficit) to Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss); and

§

Additional interim disclosures for debt and equity securities regarding types of securities held, unrealized losses, and other-than-temporary impairments.

 

These provisions, as included in ASC Topic 320, were adopted by the Company on April 1, 2009.  As a result of implementation, the Company recognized a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $151.7 after considering the effects of

 

C-15

deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”) and income taxes of $(134.0) and $46.9, respectively, as an increase to April 1, 2009 Retained earnings (deficit) with a corresponding decrease to Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

 

In addition, the Company recognized an increase in amortized cost for previously impaired securities due to the recognition of the cumulative effect of change in accounting principle as of April 1, 2009, as follows:

Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

 

In March 2008, the FASB issued new guidance on disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities, included in ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” which requires enhanced disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, fair value amounts of, and gains and losses on, derivative instruments, and credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements, including:

 

§

How and why derivative instruments are used;

§

How derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under US GAAP for derivative and hedging activities; and

§

How derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial statements.

 

These provisions, as included in ASC Topic 815, were adopted by the Company on January 1, 2009 and are included in the Financial Instruments footnote to these consolidated financial statements.  As the pronouncement only pertains to additional disclosure, the adoption had no effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

Accounting for Costs Associated with Acquiring or Renewing Insurance Contracts

 

In October 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-26, “Financial Services - Insurance (ASC Topic 944): Accounting for Costs Associated with Acquiring or Renewing Insurance Contracts” (“ASU 2010-26”), which clarifies what costs relating to the acquisition of new or renewal insurance contracts qualify for deferral.  Costs that should be capitalized include (1) incremental direct costs of successful contract acquisition and (2) certain costs related directly to successful acquisition activities (underwriting, policy issuance and processing, medical and inspection, and sales force contract selling) performed by the insurer for the contract. Advertising costs should be included in deferred acquisition costs only if the capitalization criteria in the US GAAP direct-response advertising guidance are met.  All other acquisition-related costs should be charged to expense as incurred.

 

The provisions of ASU 2010-26 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2011, and should be applied prospectively. Retrospective application is permitted, and early adoption is permitted at the beginning of an entity’s annual reporting period.  The Company is currently in the process of determining the impact of adoption of the provisions of ASU 2010-26.

 

Consolidation Analysis of Investments Held through Separate Accounts

 

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-15, “Financial Services - Insurance (ASC Topic 944): How Investments Held through Separate Accounts Affect an Insurer’s Consolidation Analysis of Those Investments” (“ASU 2010-15”), which clarifies that an insurance entity generally should not consider any separate account interests held for the benefit of policy holders in an investment to be the insurer’s interests, and should not combine those interests with its general account interest in the same investment when assessing the investment for consolidation.

 

The provisions of ASU 2010-15 are effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The amendments are to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods as of the date of adoption.  The Company does not expect any effect on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows upon adoption, as the guidance is consistent with that previously applied by the Company under ASC Topic 944.

 

Accounting Policy Change

 

During the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company concluded that it should change its accounting for realized capital gains (losses) and unrealized capital gains (losses) on investments supporting experience-rated products.  The impact of this change in accounting policy on the Company’s financial statements is immaterial to all periods presented.  Therefore, this correction is reflected in the fourth quarter of 2010 (the period

 

C-17

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

in which the change was made).  Certain reclassifications, which increased (decreased) Realized gains (losses) and Interest credited and other benefits by $11.3 and $614.4 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, were made in connection with this change, and had no impact on net income.  This change in accounting policy has no impact on individual customer account values and no impact on credited rates for experience-rated products.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial information to conform to the current year classifications.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, certain money market instruments, and other debt issues with a maturity of 90 days or less when purchased.

 

Investments

 

All of the Company’s fixed maturities, except those accounted for using the fair value option, and equity securities are currently designated as available-for-sale.  Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value and unrealized capital gains (losses) on these securities are recorded directly in Shareholder’s equity, after adjustment, if any, for related changes in DAC, value of business acquired (“VOBA”), and deferred income taxes.  Fixed maturities accounted for using the fair value option are reported at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the Statement of Operations.

 

Other-Than-Temporary Impairments

 

The Company analyzes its general account investments to determine whether there has been an other-than-temporary decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis. Factors considered in this analysis include, but are not limited to, the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost, the issuer’s financial condition and near-term prospects, future economic conditions and market forecasts, interest rate changes, and changes in ratings of the security.

 

C-18



 

ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company and Subsidiaries

(A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

When assessing the Company’s intent to sell a security or if it is more likely than not it will be required to sell a security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, management evaluates facts and circumstances such as, but not limited to, decisions to rebalance the investment portfolio and sales of investments to meet cash flow needs.

 

When the Company has determined it has the intent to sell or if it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell a security before recovery of its amortized cost basis and the fair value has declined below amortized cost (“intent impairment”) the individual security is written down from amortized cost to fair value and a corresponding charge is recorded in Net realized capital gains (losses) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations as an OTTI.  If the Company does not intend to sell the security nor is it more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, but the Company has determined that there has been an other-than-temporary decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis, the OTTI is bifurcated into the amount representing the present value of the decrease in cash flows expected to be collected (“credit impairment”) and the amount related to other factors (“noncredit impairment”).  The credit impairment is recorded in Net realized capital gains (losses) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The noncredit impairment is recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

In order to determine the amount of the OTTI that is considered a credit impairment, the Company utilizes the following methodology and significant inputs:

 

§

Recovery value is estimated by performing a discounted cash flow analysis based upon the best estimate of expected future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate implicit in the underlying debt security. The effective interest rate is the current yield prior to impairment for a fixed rate security or current coupon yield for a floating rate security.

§

Collectability and recoverability are estimated using the same considerations as the Company uses in its overall impairment analysis which includes, but is not limited to, the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost, the issuer’s financial condition and near-term prospects, future economic conditions and market forecasts, interest rate changes, and changes in ratings of the security.

§

Additional factors considered for structured securities such as RMBS, CMBS and other ABS include, but are not limited to, quality of underlying collateral, anticipated loss severities, collateral default rates, and other collateral characteristics such as vintage, repayment terms, and the geographical makeup of the collateral.

Purchases and Sales

 

Purchases and sales of fixed maturities and equity securities, excluding private placements, are recorded on the trade date. Purchases and sales of private placements and mortgage loans are recorded on the closing date.

 

Valuation of Investments and Derivatives

 

The Company utilizes a number of valuation methodologies to determine the fair values of its financial assets and liabilities in conformity with the concepts of “exit price” and the fair value hierarchy as prescribed in ASC Topic 820.  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, comparisons to internal pricing models, back testing to recent trades, or monitoring of trading volumes.

 

All valuation methods and assumptions are validated at least quarterly to ensure the accuracy and relevance of the fair values.  There were no material changes to the valuation methods or assumptions used to determine fair values during 2010, except for the Company’s use of commercial pricing services to value certain collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMO-Bs”) which commenced in the first quarter of 2010. CMO-Bs were previously valued using an average of broker quotes when more than one broker quote is provided.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value, and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements.

 

Fair Value Hierarchy

 

The Company has categorized its financial instruments into a three-level hierarchy based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique.

 

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.

 

C-20



 

ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company and Subsidiaries

(A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

Financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on the Consolidated 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.

 

The following valuation methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating reported values for the investments and derivatives described below:

 

Fixed maturities: The fair values for the actively traded marketable bonds are determined based upon the quoted market prices and are classified as Level 1 assets.  Assets in this category would primarily include certain US Treasury securities.  The fair values for marketable bonds without an active market, excluding subprime residential mortgage-backed securities, are obtained through several commercial pricing services, which provide the estimated fair values, and are classified as Level 2 assets.  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.  This category includes US and foreign corporate bonds, Asset-backed Securities (“ABS”), US agency and government guaranteed securities, Commercial Mortgage-backed Securities (“CMBS”), and Residential Mortgage-backed Securities (“RMBS”), including CMO-Bs.

 

Generally, the Company does not obtain more than one vendor price from pricing services per instrument. The Company uses a hierarchy process in which prices are obtained from a primary vendor, and, if that vendor is unable to provide the price, the next vendor in the hierarchy is contacted until a price is obtained or it is determined that a price cannot be obtained from a commercial pricing service. 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.

Broker quotes and prices obtained from pricing services are reviewed and validated monthly through an internal valuation committee price variance review, comparisons to internal pricing models, back testing to recent trades, or monitoring of trading volumes. At December 31, 2010, $73.3 and $13.2 billion of a total of $17.4 billion in fixed maturities were valued using unadjusted broker quotes and unadjusted prices obtained from pricing services, respectively, and verified through the review process. The remaining balance in fixed maturities consisted primarily of privately placed bonds valued using matrix-based pricing model.

 

All prices and broker quotes obtained go through the review process described above including valuations for which only one broker quote is obtained.  After review, for those instruments where the price is determined to be appropriate, the unadjusted price provided is used for financial statement valuation. If it is determined that the price is questionable, another price may be requested from a different vendor. The internal valuation committee then reviews all prices for the instrument again, along with information from the review, to determine which price best represents “exit price” for the instrument.

 

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.

 

Trading activity for the Company’s RMBS, particularly subprime and Alt-A RMBS, declined during 2008 as a result of the dislocation of the credit markets.  The Company continued to obtain pricing information from commercial pricing services and brokers. However, the pricing for subprime and Alt-A RMBS did not represent regularly occurring market transactions since the trading activity declined significantly in the second half of 2008.  As a result, the Company concluded in the second half of 2008 that the market for subprime and Alt-A RMBS was inactive and classified these securities as Level 3 assets. The Company did not change its valuation procedures, which are consistent with those used for Level 2 marketable bonds without an active market, as a result of determining that the market was inactive. Due to increased trade activity of Alt-A RMBS during the second half of 2009, the Company determined that the Alt-A RMBS should be transferred to Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy as its overall assessment of the market was that it was active. The market for subprime RMBS remains largely inactive, and as such these securities will remain in Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.  The Company will continue to monitor market activity for RMBS to determine proper classification in the valuation hierarchy.

Equity securities, available-for-sale: 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 equities or equity securities not traded on an exchange, are valued by sources such as analytics or brokers and are classified as Level 3 assets.

 

Cash and cash equivalents, Short-term investments, and Short-term investments under securities loan agreement: 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. Other short-term investments are valued and classified in the fair value hierarchy consistent with the policies described herein, depending on investment type.

 

Derivatives: The carrying amounts for these financial instruments, which can be assets or liabilities, reflect the fair value of the assets and liabilities.  Derivatives are carried at fair value (on the Consolidated Balance Sheets), which is determined using the Company’s derivative accounting system in conjunction with observable key financial data from third party sources, such as yield curves, exchange rates, Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) 500 Index prices, and London Inter Bank Offered Rates (“LIBOR”), or through 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.  It is the Company’s policy to transact only with investment grade counterparties with a credit rating of A- or better. The Company’s own credit risk is also considered and incorporated in the Company’s valuation process. 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 credit default swaps 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.

 

Product guarantees: The Company records product guarantees, which can be either assets or liabilities, for annuity contracts containing guaranteed credited rates in accordance with ASC 815.  The guarantee is treated as an embedded derivative or a stand-alone derivative (depending on the underlying product) and is required to be reported at fair value.  The fair value of the obligation is calculated based on the income approach as described in ASC 820.  The income associated with the contracts is projected using actuarial and capital market assumptions, including benefits and related contract charges, over the anticipated life of the related contracts.  The cash flow estimates are produced by using stochastic techniques under a variety of risk neutral scenarios and other best estimate assumptions.  These derivatives are classified as Level 3 liabilities or assets. Explicit risk margins in the actuarial assumptions underlying valuations are included, as well as an explicit recognition of all nonperformance risks as required by US GAAP.  Nonperformance risk for product guarantees contains adjustments to the fair values of these contract liabilities related to the current credit standing of ING and the

Company based on credit default swaps with similar term to maturity and priority of payment.  The ING credit default spread is applied to the discount factors for product guarantees in the Company’s valuation model in order to incorporate credit risk into the fair values of these product guarantees.  As of December 31, 2010, the overall value of the derivative liability decreased.  This decrease was mainly due to an increase in interest rate levels, and also benefited from the change in credit spread of ING in relation to prior periods which decreased the derivative liability.

 

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.

 

The following investments are reported at values other than fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and therefore are not categorized in the fair value hierarchy:

 

Mortgage loans on real estate: Mortgage loans on real estate are reported at amortized cost, less impairment write-downs and allowance for losses. 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 lower of 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. The carrying value of the impaired loans is reduced by establishing a permanent write-down recorded in Net realized capital gains (losses).

 

Policy loans: The reported value of policy loans is equal to the carrying, or cash surrender, value of the loans. Policy loans are fully collateralized by the account value of the associated insurance contracts.

 

Loan - Dutch State obligation: The reported value of the State of the Netherlands (the “Dutch State”) loan obligation is based on the outstanding loan balance plus any unamortized premium.

 

Limited partnerships/corporations: The carrying value for these investments, primarily private equities and hedge funds, is determined based on the Company’s degree of influence over the investee’s operating and financial policies along with the percent of the investee that the Company owns. Those investments where the Company has determined it has significant influence are accounted for under the equity method, with the remainder accounted for under the cost method.

 

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on available market information and judgments about various financial instruments, such as estimates of

 

C-24

timing and amounts of future cash flows.  Such estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument, nor do they consider the tax impact of the realization of unrealized capital gains (losses).  In many cases, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets, nor can the disclosed value be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments.

 

Repurchase Agreements

 

The Company engages in dollar repurchase agreements with mortgage-backed securities (“dollar rolls”) and repurchase agreements with other collateral types to increase its return on investments and improve liquidity. Such arrangements typically meet the requirements to be accounted for as financing arrangements. The Company enters into dollar roll transactions by selling existing mortgage-backed securities and concurrently entering into an agreement to repurchase similar securities within a short time frame in the future at a lower price. Under repurchase agreements, the Company borrows cash from a counterparty at an agreed upon interest rate for an agreed upon time frame and pledges collateral in the form of securities. At the end of the agreement, the counterparty returns the collateral to the Company and the Company, in turn, repays the loan amount along with the additional agreed upon interest. Company policy requires that at all times during the term of the dollar roll and repurchase agreements that cash or other collateral types obtained is sufficient to allow the Company to fund substantially all of the cost of purchasing replacement assets. Cash collateral received is invested in short-term investments, with the offsetting collateral liability included in Borrowed money on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  At December 31, 2010, the carrying value of the securities pledged in dollar rolls and repurchase agreement transactions was $216.7. At December 31, 2009, there were no securities pledged in dollar rolls and repurchase agreement transactions.  The repurchase obligation related to dollar rolls and repurchase agreements, including accrued interest, totaled $214.7 and $0.1, respectively at December 31, 2010 and 2009, and is included in Borrowed money on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition to the purchase obligation at December 31, 2010, the Company did not have any collateral posted by the counterparty in connection with the increase in the value of pledged securities that will be released upon settlement.

 

The Company also enters into reverse repurchase agreements.  These transactions involve a purchase of securities and an agreement to sell substantially the same securities as those purchased.  Company policy requires that, at all times during the term of the reverse repurchase agreements, cash or other collateral types provided is sufficient to allow the counterparty to fund substantially all of the cost of purchasing replacement assets. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company did not have any securities pledged under reverse repurchase agreements.

 

The primary risk associated with short-term collateralized borrowings is that the counterparty will be unable to perform under the terms of the contract.  The Company’s

 

C-25

exposure is limited to the excess of the net replacement cost of the securities over the value of the short-term investments, an amount that was immaterial at December 31, 2010.  The Company believes the counterparties to the dollar rolls, repurchase, and reverse repurchase agreements are financially responsible and that the counterparty risk is minimal.

 

Securities Lending

 

The Company engages in securities lending whereby certain securities from its portfolio are loaned to other institutions for short periods of time.  Initial collateral, primarily cash, is required at a rate of 102% of the market value of the loaned domestic securities.  The collateral is deposited by the borrower with a lending agent, and retained and invested by the lending agent according to the Company’s guidelines to generate additional income.  The market value of the loaned securities is monitored on a daily basis with additional collateral obtained or refunded as the market value of the loaned securities fluctuates. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the fair value of loaned securities was $651.7 and $339.5, respectively, and is included in Securities pledged on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

Derivatives

 

The Company’s use of derivatives is limited mainly to 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.

 

The Company enters into interest rate, equity market, credit default, and currency contracts, including swaps, caps, floors, and options, to reduce and manage risks associated with changes in value, yield, price, cash flow, or exchange rates of assets or liabilities held or intended to be held, or to assume or reduce credit exposure associated with a referenced asset, index, or pool.  The Company also utilizes options and futures on equity indices to reduce and manage risks associated with its annuity products.  Open derivative contracts are reported as either Derivatives or Other liabilities, as appropriate, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Changes in the fair value of such derivatives are recorded in Net realized capital gains (losses) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

If the Company’s current debt and claims paying ratings were downgraded in the future, the terms in the Company’s derivative agreements may be triggered, which could negatively impact overall liquidity.  For the majority of the Company’s counterparties, there is a termination event should the Company’s long-term debt ratings drop below BBB+/Baa1.

 

The Company also has investments in certain fixed maturity instruments, and has issued certain products with guarantees, that contain embedded derivatives whose market value is at least partially determined by, among other things, levels of or changes in domestic

and/or foreign interest rates (short-term or long-term), exchange rates, prepayment rates, equity markets, or credit ratings/spreads.

 

Embedded derivatives within retail annuity products are included in Future policy benefits and claims reserves on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and changes in the fair value are recorded in Interest credited and benefits to contract owners in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

DAC and VOBA

 

General

 

DAC represents policy acquisition costs that have been capitalized and are subject to amortization.  Such costs consist principally of certain commissions, underwriting, contract issuance, and certain agency expenses, related to the production of new and renewal business.

 

VOBA represents the outstanding value of in force business capitalized in purchase accounting when the Company was acquired and is subject to amortization.  The value is based on the present value of estimated profits embedded in the Company’s contracts.

 

US GAAP guidance for universal life and investment-type products, such as fixed and variable deferred annuities, indicates DAC and VOBA are amortized, with interest, over the life of the related contracts in relation to the present value of estimated future gross profits from investment, mortality, and expense margins, plus surrender charges.

 

Internal Replacements

 

Contract owners may periodically exchange one contract for another, or make modifications to an existing contract.  Beginning January 1, 2007, these transactions are identified as internal replacements and are accounted for in accordance with US GAAP guidance for DAC related to modification or exchange of insurance contracts.

 

Internal replacements that are determined to result in substantially unchanged contracts are accounted for as continuations of the replaced contracts.  Any costs associated with the issuance of the new contracts are considered maintenance costs and expensed as incurred. Unamortized DAC and VOBA related to the replaced contracts continue to be deferred and amortized in connection with the new contracts.  Internal replacements that are determined to result in contracts that are substantially changed are accounted for as extinguishments of the replaced contracts, and any unamortized DAC and VOBA related to the replaced contracts are written off to Net amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and value of business acquired in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Unlocking

 

Changes in assumptions can have a significant impact on DAC and VOBA balances and amortization rates.  Several assumptions are considered significant in the estimation of future gross profits associated with variable deferred annuity products.  One of the most significant assumptions involved in the estimation of future gross profits is the assumed return associated with the variable account performance. To reflect the volatility in the equity markets, this assumption involves a combination of near-term expectations and long-term assumptions regarding market performance. The overall return on the variable account is dependent on multiple factors, including the relative mix of the underlying sub-accounts among bond funds and equity funds, as well as equity sector weightings. Other significant assumptions include surrender and lapse rates, estimated interest spread, and estimated mortality.

 

Due to the relative size and sensitivity to minor changes in underlying assumptions of DAC and VOBA balances, the Company performs quarterly and annual analyses of DAC and VOBA. The DAC and VOBA balances are evaluated for recoverability.

 

At each evaluation date, actual historical gross profits are reflected, and estimated future gross profits and related assumptions are evaluated for continued reasonableness.  Any adjustment in estimated future gross profits requires that the amortization rate be revised (“unlocking”), retroactively to the date of the policy or contract issuance. The cumulative unlocking adjustment is recognized as a component of current period amortization. In general, sustained increases in investment, mortality, and expense margins, and thus estimated future gross profits, lower the rate of amortization. Sustained decreases in investment, mortality, and expense margins, and thus estimated future gross profits, however, increase the rate of amortization.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation.  Expenditures for replacements and major improvements are capitalized; maintenance and repair expenditures are expensed as incurred.

 

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, total accumulated depreciation and amortization was $102.6 and $99.5, respectively. Depreciation on property and equipment is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets with the exception of land and artwork, which are not depreciated or amortized. The Company’s property and equipment are depreciated using the following estimated useful lives.

Reserves

 

The Company records as liabilities reserves to meet the Company’s future obligations under its variable annuity and fixed annuity products.

 

Future policy benefits and claims reserves include reserves for deferred annuities and immediate annuities with and without life contingent payouts.

 

Reserves for individual and group deferred annuity investment contracts and individual immediate annuities without life contingent payouts are equal to cumulative deposits, less charges and withdrawals, plus credited interest thereon, net of adjustments for investment experience that the Company is entitled to reflect in future credited interest. Credited interest rates vary by product and range from 0% to 7.8% for the years 2010, 2009, and 2008.  Reserves for group immediate annuities without life contingent payouts are equal to the discounted value of the payment at the implied break-even rate.

 

Reserves for individual immediate annuities with life contingent payout benefits are computed on the basis of assumed interest discount rates, mortality, and expenses, including a margin for adverse deviations.  Such assumptions generally vary by annuity type plan, year of issue, and policy duration.  For the years 2010, 2009, and 2008, reserve interest rates ranged from 4.5% to 6.0%.

 

The Company records reserves for product guarantees, which can be either assets or liabilities, for annuity contracts containing guaranteed credited rates.  The guarantee is treated as an embedded derivative or a stand-alone derivative (depending on the underlying product) and is reported at fair value in accordance with the requirements of US GAAP guidance for insurance companies, derivatives, and fair value measurements.  The fair value of the obligation is calculated based on the income approach.  The income associated with the contracts is projected using relevant actuarial and capital market assumptions, including benefits and related contract charges, over the anticipated life of the related contracts. The cash flow estimates are produced by using stochastic techniques under a variety of risk neutral scenarios and other best estimate assumptions.  Explicit risk margins in the actuarial assumptions underlying valuations are included, as well as an explicit recognition of all nonperformance risks beginning January 1, 2008 with the adoption of new US GAAP guidance on fair value measurements. Nonperformance risk for product guarantees contain adjustment to the fair value of these contract liabilities related to the current credit standing of ING and the Company based

on credit default swaps with similar term to maturity and priority of payment.  The ING credit default spread is applied to the discount factors for product guarantees in the Company’s valuation model in order to incorporate credit risk into the fair value of these product guarantees.

 

Unpaid claims and claim expenses for all lines of insurance include benefits for reported losses and estimates of benefits for losses incurred but not reported.

 

Certain variable annuities offer guaranteed minimum death benefits (“GMDB”). The GMDB is accrued in the event the contract owner account value at death is below the guaranteed value and is included in reserves.

 

The Company’s domestic individual life insurance business was disposed of on October 1, 1998 pursuant to an indemnity reinsurance agreement. The Company includes an amount in Reinsurance recoverable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, which equals the Company’s total individual life reserves. Individual life reserves are included in Future policy benefits and claims reserves on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

For most annuity contracts, charges assessed against contract owner funds for the cost of insurance, surrenders, expenses, and other fees are recorded as revenue as charges are assessed.  Other amounts received for these contracts are reflected as deposits and are not recorded as premiums or revenue.  When annuity payments with life contingencies begin under contracts that were initially investment contracts, the accumulated balance in the account is treated as a single premium for the purchase of an annuity and reflected in both Premiums and Interest credited and other benefits to contract owners in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

Premiums on the Consolidated Statements of Operations primarily represent amounts received for immediate annuities with life contingent payouts.

 

Separate Accounts

 

Separate account assets and liabilities generally represent funds maintained to meet specific investment objectives of contract owners who bear the investment risk, subject, in limited cases, to certain minimum guarantees.  Investment income and investment gains and losses generally accrue directly to such contract owners.  The assets of each account are legally segregated and are not subject to claims that arise out of any other business of the Company or its affiliates.

 

Separate account assets supporting variable options under variable annuity contracts are invested, as designated by the contract owner or participant (who bears the investment risk subject, in limited cases, to minimum guaranteed rates) under a contract, in shares of

 

C-30



 

ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company and Subsidiaries

(A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

mutual funds that are managed by the Company or its affiliates, or in other selected mutual funds not managed by the Company or its affiliates.

 

The Company reports separately, as assets and liabilities, investments held in the separate accounts and liabilities of separate accounts if:

 

§

such separate accounts are legally recognized;

§

assets supporting the contract liabilities are legally insulated from the Company’s general account liabilities;

§

investments are directed by the contractholder; and

§

all investment performance, net of contract fees and assessments, is passed through to the contractholder.

 

The Company reports separate account assets and liabilities that meet the above criteria at fair value based on the fair value of the underlying investments.  Investment income and net realized and unrealized capital gains (losses) of the separate accounts, however, are not reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.  The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows do not reflect investment activity of the separate accounts.

 

Reinsurance

 

The Company utilizes indemnity reinsurance agreements to reduce its exposure to losses from GMDBs in its annuity insurance business. Reinsurance permits recovery of a portion of losses from reinsurers, although it does not discharge the Company’s primary liability as the direct insurer of the risks. The Company evaluates the financial strength of potential reinsurers and continually monitors the financial strength and credit ratings of its reinsurers. Only those reinsurance recoverable balances deemed probable of recovery are reflected as assets on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

The Company has a significant concentration of reinsurance arising from the disposition of its individual life insurance business. In 1998, the Company entered into an indemnity reinsurance agreement with a subsidiary of Lincoln National Corporation (“Lincoln”).  The Lincoln subsidiary established a trust to secure it obligations to the Company under the reinsurance transaction.  Of the Reinsurance recoverable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, $2.3 billion and $2.4 billion at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, is related to the reinsurance recoverable from the subsidiary of Lincoln under this reinsurance agreement.

 

Income Taxes

 

ILIAC files a consolidated federal income tax return with ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc. (“ING AIH”), an affiliate, and certain other subsidiaries of ING AIH. ILIAC is party to a federal tax allocation agreement with ING AIH and its subsidiaries that are part of the group whereby ING AIH charges its subsidiaries for federal taxes each

The Company did not have any investments in a single issuer, other than obligations of the U.S. government and government agencies and the Dutch State loan obligation, with a carrying value in excess of 10% of the Company’s Shareholder’s equity at December 31, 2010 and 2009.

 

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, fixed maturities with fair values of $13.4 and $12.9, respectively, were on deposit as required by regulatory authorities.

 

The Company invests in various categories of collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), including CMOs that are not agency-backed, that are subject to different degrees of risk from changes in interest rates and defaults.  The principal risks inherent in holding CMOs are prepayment and extension risks related to dramatic decreases and increases in interest rates resulting in the prepayment of principal from the underlying mortgages, either earlier or later than originally anticipated.  At December 31, 2010 and 2009, approximately 36.5% and 29.4%, respectively, of the Company’s CMO holdings were invested in those types of CMOs which are subject to more prepayment and extension risk than traditional CMOs, such as interest-only or principal-only strips.

 

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 including the Company, 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 US with a book value of $36.0 billion, including book value of $802.5 of the Alt-A RMBS portfolio owned by the Company (with respect to the Company’s portfolio, the “Designated Securities Portfolio”) (the “ING-Dutch State Transaction”).  As a result of the risk transfer, the

 

C-34

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

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 approximately 10% of par value.  In addition, under the Back-Up Facility, other fees were paid both by the Company and the Dutch State.  Each ING company participating in the ING-Dutch State Transaction, including the Company remains the legal owner of 100% of its Alt-A RMBS portfolio and will remain exposed to 20% of any results on the portfolio.  The ING-Dutch State Transaction closed 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 order to implement that portion of the ING-Dutch State Transaction related to the Company’s Designated Securities Portfolio, the Company entered into a participation agreement with its affiliates, ING Support Holding B.V. (“ING Support Holding”) and ING pursuant to which the Company conveyed to ING Support Holding an 80% participation interest in its Designated Securities Portfolio and will pay a periodic transaction fee, and received, as consideration for the participation, an assignment by ING Support Holding of its right to receive payments from the Dutch State under the Illiquid Assets Back-Up Facility related to the Company’s Designated Securities Portfolio among, ING, ING Support Holding and the Dutch State (the “Company Back-Up Facility”).  Under the Company Back-Up Facility, the Dutch State is obligated to pay certain periodic fees and make certain periodic payments with respect to the Company’s Designated Securities Portfolio, and ING Support Holding is obligated to pay a periodic guarantee fee and make periodic payments to the Dutch State equal to the distributions it receives with respect to the 80% participation interest in the Company’s Designated Securities Portfolio.  The Dutch State payment obligation to the Company under the Company Back-Up Facility is accounted for as a loan receivable for US GAAP and is reported in Loan - Dutch State obligation on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

Upon the closing of the transaction on March 31, 2009, the Company recognized a gain of $206.2, which was reported in Net realized capital gains (losses) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

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 $4.2 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, and the Company recognized a gain of $0.3 contemporaneous with the closing of the ING-Dutch State Transaction, which was reported in Net realized capital gains (losses) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

As part of the final restructuring plan submitted to the European Commission (“EC”) in connection with its review of the Dutch state aid to ING (the “Restructuring Plan”), ING

has agreed to make additional payments to the Dutch State corresponding to an adjustment of fees for the Back-Up Facility. Under this new agreement, the terms of the ING-Dutch State Transaction which closed on March 31, 2009, including the transfer price of the Alt-A RMBS securities, will remain unaltered and the additional payments will not be borne by the Company or any other ING U.S. subsidiaries.

 

Variable Interest Entities

 

The Company holds certain VIEs for investment purposes.  VIEs may be in the form of private placement securities, structured securities, securitization transactions, or limited partnerships. The Company has reviewed each of its holdings and determined that consolidation of these investments in the Company’s financial statements is not required, as the Company is not the primary beneficiary, because the Company does not have both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation or right to potentially significant losses or benefits, for any of its investments in VIEs. Rather, the VIEs are accounted for using the cost or equity method of accounting. The Company provided no non-contractual financial support and its carrying value represents the Company’s exposure to loss. The carrying value of collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) of $0.6 and $0.1 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, is included in Limited partnerships/corporations on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Income and losses recognized on these investments are reported in Net investment income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, unrealized capital losses on fixed maturities decreased by $433.4. Lower unrealized losses are due to declining yields and the overall tightening of credit spreads since the end of 2009, leading to the increased value of fixed maturities.

 

At December 31, 2010, the Company held 1 fixed maturity with an unrealized capital loss in excess of $10.0.  The unrealized capital loss on this fixed maturity equaled $10.0, or 4.3% of the total unrealized capital losses, as of December 31, 2010.  At December 31, 2009, the Company held 8 fixed maturities with unrealized capital losses in excess of $10.0.  The unrealized capital losses on these fixed maturities equaled $118.2, or 17.7% of the total unrealized capital losses, as of December 31, 2009.

 

All investments with fair values less than amortized cost are included in the Company’s other-than-temporary impairment analysis, and impairments were recognized as disclosed in “Other-Than-Temporary Impairments,” which follows this section. After detailed impairment analysis was completed, management determined that the remaining investments in an unrealized loss position were not other-than-temporarily impaired, and therefore no further other-than-temporary impairment was necessary.

Net Realized Capital Gains (Losses)

 

Net realized capital gains (losses) are comprised of the difference between the amortized cost of investments and proceeds from sale and redemption, as well as losses incurred due to credit-related and intent-related other-than-temporary impairment of investments and changes in fair value of fixed maturities accounted for using the fair value option and derivatives. The cost of the investments on disposal is determined based on specific identification of securities. Net realized capital gains (losses) on investments were as follows for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008.

Transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2

 

Certain U.S. Treasury securities valued by commercial pricing services where prices are derived using market observable inputs have been transferred from Level 1 to Level 2.  These securities for the year ended December 31, 2010, include U.S. Treasury strips of $60.6 in which prices are modeled incorporating 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. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out as of the beginning of the reporting period.

Valuation of Financial Assets and Liabilities

 

As described below, certain assets and liabilities are measured at estimated fair value on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, further disclosure of estimated fair values is included in this Financial Instruments footnote. The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The exit price and the transaction (or entry) price will be the same at initial recognition in many circumstances. However, in certain cases, the transaction price may not represent fair value. The fair value of a liability is based on the amount that would be paid to transfer a liability to a third-party with an equal credit standing. Fair value is required to be a market-based measurement which is determined based on a hypothetical transaction at the measurement date, from a market participant’s perspective. The Company considers three broad valuation techniques when a quoted price is unavailable: (i) the market approach, (ii) the income approach and (iii) the cost approach. The Company determines the most appropriate valuation technique to use, given the instrument being measured and the availability of sufficient inputs. The Company prioritizes the inputs to fair valuation techniques and allows for the use of unobservable inputs to the extent that observable inputs are not available.

 

The Company utilizes a number of valuation methodologies to determine the fair values of its financial assets and liabilities in conformity with the concepts of “exit price” and the fair value hierarchy as prescribed in ASC Topic 820. 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, comparisons to internal pricing models, back testing to recent trades, or monitoring of trading volumes.

 

All valuation methods and assumptions are validated at least quarterly to ensure the accuracy and relevance of the fair values. There were no material changes to the valuation methods or assumptions used to determine fair values during 2010, except for the Company’s use of commercial pricing services to value CMO-Bs which commenced in the first quarter of 2010. CMO-Bs were previously valued using an average of broker quotes when more than one broker quote is provided.

 

Level 3 Financial Instruments

 

The fair values of certain assets and liabilities are determined using prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement (i.e., Level 3 as defined by ASC 820), including but not limited to liquidity spreads for investments within markets deemed not currently active. 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. In addition, the Company has determined, for certain financial instruments, an active market is such a significant input to determine fair value that the presence of an inactive market may lead to classification in Level 3. In light of the methodologies employed to obtain the fair value of financial assets and liabilities classified as Level 3, additional information is presented below, with particular attention addressed to the reserves for product guarantees due to the impact on the Company’s results of operations.

The transfers out of Level 3 during the year ended December 31, 2010 in fixed maturities, including securities pledged, are primarily due to the Company’s use of commercial pricing services to value CMO-Bs. 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. The CMO-Bs had previously been valued by using the average of broker quotes when more than one broker quote is provided.

 

The remaining transfers in and out of Level 3 for fixed maturities, equity securities and separate accounts during the year ended December 31, 2010 are due to the variation in inputs relied upon for valuation each quarter. Securities that are primarily valued using independent broker quotes when prices are not available from one of the commercial pricing services are reflected as transfers into Level 3, as these securities are generally less liquid with very limited trading activity or where less transparency exists corroborating the inputs to the valuation methodologies. When securities are valued using more widely available information, the securities are transferred out of Level 3 and into Level 1 or 2, as appropriate.

The following disclosures are made in accordance with the requirements of ASC Topic 825 which requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. 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, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument.

 

ASC Topic 825 excludes certain financial instruments, including insurance contracts, and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements.  Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.

 

The following valuation methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of the following financial instruments which are not carried at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and therefore not categorized in the fair value hierarchy:

 

Limited partnerships/corporations: The fair value for these investments, primarily private equities and hedge funds, is estimated based on the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) as provided by the investee.

 

Mortgage loans on real estate: The fair values for mortgage loans on real estate are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses and rates currently being offered in the marketplace for similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings. Loans with similar characteristics are aggregated for purposes of the calculations.

 

Loan - Dutch State obligation: The fair value of the Dutch State loan obligation is estimated utilizing discounted cash flows from the Dutch Strip Yield Curve.

 

Policy loans: The fair value of policy loans is equal to the carrying, or cash surrender, value of the loans.  Policy loans are fully collateralized by the account value of the associated insurance contracts.

 

Investment contract liabilities (included in Future policy benefits and claims reserves):

 

With a fixed maturity: Fair value is estimated by discounting cash flows, including associated expenses for maintaining the contracts, at rates, which are market risk-free rates augmented by credit spreads on current Company credit default swaps. The augmentation is present to account for non-performance risk. A margin for nonfinancial risks associated with the contracts is also included.

 

Without a fixed maturity: Fair value is estimated as the mean present value of stochastically modeled cash flows associated with the contract liabilities relevant to both the contractholder and to the Company. Here, the stochastic valuation scenario set is consistent with current market parameters, and discount is taken using stochastically evolving short risk-free rates in the scenarios augmented by credit spreads on current Company debt. The augmentation in the discount is present to account for non-performance risk. Margins for non-financial risks associated with the contract liabilities are also included.

Notes receivable from affiliates: Estimated fair value of the Company’s notes receivable from affiliates is based upon discounted future cash flows using a discount rate approximating the current market rate.

 

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on available market information and judgments about various financial instruments, such as estimates of timing and amounts of future cash flows. Such estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument, nor do they consider the tax impact of the realization of unrealized capital gains (losses). In many cases, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets, nor can the disclosed value be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments. In evaluating the Company’s management of interest rate, price, and liquidity risks, the fair values of all assets and liabilities should be taken into consideration, not only those presented above.

As of December 31, 2010, all commercial mortgage loans are held-for-investment.  The Company diversifies its commercial mortgage loan portfolio by geographic region and property type to reduce concentration risk.  The Company manages risk when originating commercial mortgage loans by generally lending only up to 75% of the estimated fair value of the underlying real estate.  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. 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.

The Company believes it has a high quality mortgage loan portfolio with 100% of commercial mortgages classified as performing.  The Company defines delinquent commercial mortgage loans consistent with industry practice as 60 days past due.  As of December 31, 2010, there were no commercial loans classified as delinquent.  The Company’s policy is to recognize interest income until a loan becomes 90 days delinquent or foreclosure proceedings are commenced, at which point interest accrual is discontinued. Interest accrual is not resumed until past due payments are brought current. At December 31, 2010, there were no commercial mortgage loans on nonaccrual status.

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.

 

The carrying values and unpaid principal balances (prior to any charge-off) of impaired commercial mortgage loans were as follows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

See the Organization and Significant Accounting Policies footnote for disclosure regarding the Company’s purpose for entering into derivatives and the policies on valuation and classification of derivatives. In addition, the Company’s derivatives are generally not accounted for using hedge accounting treatment under US GAAP, as the Company has not historically sought hedge accounting treatment. The Company enters into the following derivatives:

 

Interest rate caps: Interest rate caps are used to manage the interest rate risk in the Company’s fixed maturity portfolio.  Interest rate caps are purchased contracts that are used by the Company to hedge annuity products against rising interest rates.

 

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.

 

Foreign exchange swaps: Foreign exchange swaps are used to reduce the risk of a change in the value, yield, or cash flow with respect to invested assets.  Foreign exchange swaps represent contracts that require the exchange of foreign currency cash flows for U.S. dollar cash flows at regular interim periods, typically quarterly or semi-annually.

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 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 credit protection) or will be required to make an additional payment (sold credit protection) equal to par minus recovery value of the swap contract.

 

Forwards: Certain forwards are acquired to hedge the Company’s CMO-B portfolio against movements in interest rates, particularly mortgage rates. On the settlement date, the Company will either receive a payment (interest rate drops on owned forwards or interest rate rises on purchased forwards) or will be required to make a payment (interest rate rises on owned forwards or interest rate drops on purchased forwards).

 

Futures: Futures contracts are used to hedge against a decrease in certain equity indices. Such decreases may result in a decrease in variable annuity account values, which would increase the possibility of the Company incurring an expense for guaranteed benefits in excess of account values.  A decrease in variable annuity account values would also result in lower fee income.  A decrease in equity markets may also negatively impact the Company’s investment in equity securities.  The futures income would serve to offset these effects. Futures contracts are also used to hedge against an increase in certain equity indices.  Such increases may result in increased payments to contract holders of fixed indexed annuity contracts, and the futures income would serve to offset this increased expense.

 

Swaptions: Swaptions are used to manage interest rate risk in the Company’s collateralized mortgage obligations portfolio.  Swaptions are contracts that give the Company the option to enter into an interest rate swap at a specific future date.

 

Managed Custody Guarantees: The Company issued certain credited rate guarantees on externally managed variable bond funds that represent stand alone derivatives. The market value is partially determined by, among other things, levels of or changes in interest rates, prepayment rates, and credit ratings/spreads.

 

Embedded derivatives: The Company also has investments in certain fixed maturity instruments, and has issued certain retail annuity products, that contain embedded derivatives whose market value is at least partially determined by, among other things, levels of or changes in domestic and/or foreign interest rates (short-term or long-term), exchange rates, prepayment rates, equity rates, or credit ratings/spreads.

Credit Default Swaps

 

The Company has entered into various credit default swaps. When credit default swaps are sold, the Company assumes credit exposure to certain assets that it does not own.

Credit default swaps may also be purchased to reduce credit exposure in the Company’s portfolio. Credit default swaps involve a transfer of credit risk from one party to another in exchange for periodic payments. These instruments are typically written for a maturity period of five years and do not contain recourse provisions, which would enable the seller to recover from third parties. The Company has International Swaps and Derivatives Associations, Inc. (“ISDA”) agreements with each counterparty with which it conducts business and tracks the collateral positions for each counterparty. To the extent cash collateral is received, it is included in Payables under securities loan agreement, including collateral held, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and is reinvested in short-term investments.  Collateral held is used in accordance with the Credit Support Annex (“CSA”) to satisfy any obligations. Investment grade bonds owned by the Company are the source of noncash collateral posted, which is reported in Securities pledged on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In the event of a default on the underlying credit exposure, the Company will either receive an additional payment (purchased credit protection) or will be required to make an additional payment (sold credit protection) equal to par minus recovery value of the swap contract. At December 31, 2010, the fair value of credit default swaps of $6.7 and $14.7 was included in Derivatives and Other liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At December 31, 2009, the fair value of credit default swaps of $0.2 and $53.5 was included in Derivatives and Other liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the maximum potential future exposure to the Company on the sale of credit protection under credit default swaps was $625.6 and $84.4, respectively.

5.                                    Capital Contributions, Dividends and Statutory Information

 

ILIAC’s ability to pay dividends to its parent is subject to the prior approval of insurance regulatory authorities of the State of Connecticut for payment of any dividend, which, when combined with other dividends paid within the preceding twelve months, exceeds the greater of (1) ten percent (10.0%) of ILIAC’s earned statutory surplus at the prior year end or (2) ILIAC’s prior year statutory net gain from operations.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2010, ILIAC paid a $203.0 dividend on its common stock to its Parent.  During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, ILIAC did not pay any dividends on its common stock to its Parent. On October 30, 2010, IFA paid a $60.0 dividend to ILIAC, its parent, which was eliminated in consolidation.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2010, ILIAC did not receive any capital contributions from its Parent. On November 12, 2008, ING issued to The State of the Netherlands (the “Dutch State”) non-voting Tier 1 securities for a total consideration of EUR 10 billion.  On February 24, 2009, $2.2 billion was contributed to direct and indirect insurance company subsidiaries of ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc. (“ING AIH”), of which $365.0 was contributed to the Company.  The contribution was comprised of the proceeds from the investment by the Dutch State and the redistribution of currently existing capital within ING.  During 2008, ILIAC did not receive any cash capital contributions from Lion.

On February 18, 2011, ILIAC received a $150.0 capital contribution from its Parent as part of the redistribution of currently existing capital within ING US Insurance Operations.

 

The State of Connecticut Insurance Department (the “Department”) recognizes as net income and capital and surplus those amounts determined in conformity with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Department, which differ in certain respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  Statutory net income (loss) was $66.0, $271.6, and $(428.4), for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively.  Statutory capital and surplus was $1.7 billion and $1.8 billion as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  As specifically prescribed by statutory accounting practices, statutory surplus as of December 31, 2010 included the impact of the $150.0 capital contribution received by ILIAC from its Parent on February 18, 2011.

 

Effective December 31, 2009, the Company adopted Actuarial Guideline 43 – Variable Annuity Commissioners Annuity Reserve Valuation Method (“AG43”) for its statutory basis of accounting.  The adoption of AG43 resulted in higher reserves than those calculated under previous standards by $97.9.  Where the application of AG43 produces higher reserves than the Company had otherwise established under previous standards, the Company may request permission from the Department to grade-in the impact of higher reserve over a three year period.  The Company elected this grade-in provision, as allowed under AG43 and as approved by the Department, which allows the Company to reflect the impact of adoption of $97.9 over a three year period.  The impact of the grade-in for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was a $23.0 and $32.6, respectively, increase in reserves and a corresponding decrease in statutory surplus.

 

Effective December 31, 2009, the Company adopted SSAP No. 10R, Income Taxes, for its statutory basis of accounting.  This statement requires the Company to calculate admitted deferred tax assets based upon what is expected 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.  If the Company’s risk-based capital (“RBC”) levels, after reflecting the above limitation, exceeds 250% of the authorized control level, the statement increases the limitation on admitted deferred tax assets from what is 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 to 15%.  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%) that some portion of or all of the gross deferred tax assets will not be realized. To temper this positive RBC impact, and as a temporary measure at December 31, 2009 only, a 5% pre-tax RBC charge must be applied to the additional admitted deferred tax assets generated by SSAP 10R.  The adoption for 2009 had a December 31, 2009 sunset; however, during 2010, the 2009

adoption, including the 5% pre-tax RBC charge, was extended through December 31, 2011.  The effects on the Company’s statutory financial statements of adopting this change in accounting principle were increases to total assets and capital and surplus of $68.9 and $51.1 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  This adoption had no impact on total liabilities or net income.

 

6.                                    Additional Insurance Benefits and Minimum Guarantees

 

The Company calculates an additional liability for certain GMDBs and other minimum guarantees in order to recognize the expected value of these benefits in excess of the projected account balance over the accumulation period based on total expected assessments.

 

The Company regularly evaluates estimates used to adjust the additional liability balance, with a related charge or credit to benefit expense, if actual experience or other evidence suggests that earlier assumptions should be revised.

 

As of December 31, 2010, the separate account liability for guaranteed minimum benefits and the additional liability recognized related to minimum guarantees were $6.1 billion and $4.4, respectively. As of December 31, 2009, the separate account liability for guaranteed minimum benefits and the additional liability recognized related to minimum guarantees were $6.9 billion and $3.6, respectively.

 

The aggregate fair value of equity securities, including mutual funds, supporting separate accounts with additional insurance benefits and minimum investment return guarantees as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, was $6.1 billion and $6.9 billion, respectively.

and $5.0, respectively, related to foreign tax credits, the benefit of which is uncertain.  The change in net unrealized capital gains (losses) includes an increase (decrease) in the tax valuation allowance of $(68.7), $(38.2), and $(6.4) for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively.

 

Tax Sharing Agreement

 

Under the intercompany tax sharing agreement, ILIAC has a payable to and a receivable from ING AIH of $49.3 and $23.9 for federal income taxes as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The Company had $0.0 and $24.8 of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, which would affect the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized.

 

Interest and Penalties

 

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in current income taxes and income tax expense (benefit) on the Balance Sheet and the Statement of Operations, respectively. The Company had accrued interest of $0.0 and $3.3 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The decrease in accrued interest during the year ended December 31, 2010 is primarily related to the settlement of the 2004 through 2008 federal audits.

 

Tax Regulatory Matters

 

In September 2010, the Internal Revenue Service (“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 on 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 IRS and has agreed to participate in the Compliance Assurance Program (“CAP”) for tax years 2009 and 2010.  It is anticipated that the IRS audit of the 2009 tax year will be finalized within the next twelve months.  Upon finalization of the IRS examination, it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by up to $23.0.

 

8.                                    Benefit Plans

 

Defined Benefit Plan

 

ING North America Insurance Corporation (“ING North America”) sponsors the ING Americas Retirement Plan (the “Retirement Plan”), effective as of December 31, 2001. Substantially all employees of ING North America and its affiliates (excluding certain employees) are eligible to participate, including the Company’s employees other than Company agents. The Retirement Plan was amended and restated effective January 1, 2008. The Retirement Plan was amended on July 1, 2008, related to the admission of the employees from the acquisition of CitiStreet LLC (“CitiStreet”) by Lion, and ING North America filed a request for a determination letter on the qualified status of the Retirement Plan, but has not yet received a favorable determination letter. Additionally, effective January 1, 2009, the Retirement Plan was amended to provide that anyone hired or rehired by the Company on or after January 1, 2009, would not be eligible to participate in the Retirement Plan.

 

The Retirement 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 Retirement Plan earns a benefit under a final average compensation formula. Subsequent to December 31, 2001, ING North America is responsible for all Retirement Plan liabilities. The costs allocated to the Company for its employees’ participation in the Retirement Plan were $27.2, $22.3, and $14.0 for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively, and are included in Operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

Defined Contribution Plan

 

ING North America sponsors the ING Americas Savings Plan and ESOP (the “Savings Plan”). Substantially all employees of ING North America and its affiliates (excluding certain employees, including but not limited to Career Agents) are eligible to participate, including the Company’s employees other than Company agents. Career Agents are certain, full-time insurance salespeople who have entered into a career agent agreement

with the Company and certain other individuals who meet specified eligibility criteria.  The Savings Plan is a tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan, which includes an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) component. The Savings Plan was amended and restated effective January 1, 2008 and subsequently amended on July 1, 2008, with respect to the admission of employees from the acquisition of CitiStreet by Lion. The Savings Plan was most recently amended effective January 1, 2011 to permit Roth 401(k) contributions to be made to the Plan. ING North America filed a request for a determination letter on the qualified status of the Plan and received a favorable determination letter dated May 19, 2009. Savings Plan benefits are not guaranteed by the PBGC. The Savings Plan allows eligible participants to defer into the Savings Plan a specified percentage of eligible compensation on a pre-tax basis. ING North America matches such pre-tax contributions, up to a maximum of 6.0% of eligible compensation. 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. The cost allocated to the Company for the Savings Plan were $10.7, $8.9, and $10.3, for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively, and are included in Operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

Non-Qualified Retirement Plans

 

Through December 31, 2001, the Company, in conjunction with ING North America, offered certain eligible employees (other than Career Agents) a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and an Excess Plan (collectively, the “SERPs”). Benefit accruals under Aetna Financial Services SERPs ceased, effective as of December 31, 2001 and participants begin accruing benefits under ING North America SERPs.  Benefits under the SERPs are determined based on an eligible employee’s years of service and average annual compensation for the highest five years during the last ten years of employment.

 

The Company, in conjunction with ING North America, sponsors the Pension Plan for Certain Producers of ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company (formerly the Pension Plan for Certain Producers of Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company) (the “Agents Non-Qualified Plan”). This plan covers certain full-time insurance salespeople who have entered into a career agent agreement with the Company and certain other individuals who meet the eligibility criteria specified in the plan (“Career Agents”). The Agents Non-Qualified Plan was terminated effective January 1, 2002. In connection with the termination, all benefit accruals ceased and all accrued benefits were frozen.

 

The SERPs and Agents Non-Qualified Plan, are non-qualified defined benefit pension plans, which means all the SERPs benefits are payable from the general assets of the Company and Agents Non-Qualified Plan benefits are payable from the general assets of the Company and ING North America. These non-qualified defined benefit pension plans are not guaranteed by the PBGC.

Assumptions

 

The weighted-average assumptions used in the measurement of the December 31, 2010 and 2009 benefit obligation for the SERPs and Agents Non-Qualified Plan, were as follows:

 

 

 

2010

 

2009

Discount rate at end of period

 

5.50%

 

6.00%

Rate of compensation increase

 

3.00%

 

1.50%

 

In determining the discount rate assumption, the Company utilizes current market information provided by its plan actuaries (particularly the Citigroup Pension Discount Curve Liability Index), including a discounted cash flow analysis of the Company’s pension obligation and general movements in the current market environment. The discount rate modeling process involves selecting a portfolio of high quality, noncallable bonds that will match the cash flows of the Retirement Plan. Based upon all available information, it was determined that 5.5% was the appropriate discount rate as of December 31, 2010, to calculate the Company’s accrued benefit liability.

Stock Option and Share Plans

 

Through 2010, ING sponsored the ING Group Long-Term Equity Ownership Plan (“leo”), which provides employees of the Company who are selected by the ING Executive Board with options and/or performance shares.  The terms applicable to an award under leo are set out in an award agreement, which is signed by the participant when he or she accepts the award.

 

Options granted under leo are nonqualified options on ING shares in the form of American Depository Receipts (“ADRs”). Leo options have a ten (10) year term and vest three years from the grant date. Options awarded under leo may vest earlier in the event of the participant’s death, permanent disability or retirement.  Retirement for purposes of leo means a participant terminates service after attaining age 55 and completing 5 years of service.  Early vesting in all or a portion of a grant of options may also occur in the event the participant is terminated due to redundancy or business divestiture. Unvested options are generally subject to forfeiture when a participant voluntarily terminates

 

C-66

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

employment or is terminated for cause (as defined in leo). Upon vesting, participants generally have up to seven years in which to exercise their vested options. A shorter exercise period applies in the event of termination due to redundancy, business divestiture, voluntary termination or termination for cause. An option gives the recipient the right to purchase an ING share in the form of ADRs at a price equal to the fair market value of one ING share on the date of grant. On exercise, participant’s have three options (i) retain the shares and remit a check for applicable taxes due on exercise, (ii) request the administrator to remit a cash payment for the value of the options being exercised, less applicable taxes, or (iii) retain some of the shares and have the administrator liquidate sufficient shares to satisfy the participant’s tax obligation.  The amount is converted from Euros to U.S. dollars based on the daily average exchange rate between the Euro and the U.S. dollar, as determined by ING.

 

Awards of performance shares may also be made under leo.  Performance shares are a contingent grant of ING stock, and, on vesting, the participant has the right to receive a cash amount equal to the closing price per ING share on the Euronext Amsterdam Stock Market on the vesting date times the number of vested Plan shares.  Performance shares generally vest three years from the date of grant, with the amount payable based on ING’s share price on the vesting date.  Payments made to participants on vesting are based on the performance targets established in connection with leo and payments can range from 0% to 200% of target.  Performance is based on ING’s total shareholder return relative to a peer group as determined at the end of the vesting period. To vest, a participant must be actively employed on the vesting date, although immediate vesting will occur in the event of the participant’s death, disability or retirement.  If a participant is terminated due to redundancy or business divestiture, vesting will occur but in only a portion of the award. Unvested shares are generally subject to forfeiture when an employee voluntarily terminates employment or is terminated for cause (as defined in leo).  Upon vesting, participants have three options (i) retain the shares and remit a check for applicable taxes due on exercise, (ii) request the administrator to remit a cash payment for the value of the shares, less applicable taxes, or (iii) retain some of the shares and have the administrator liquidate sufficient shares to satisfy the participant’s tax obligation. The amount is converted from Euros to U.S. dollars based on the daily average exchange rate between the Euro and the U.S. dollar, as determined by ING.

 

The Company was allocated from ING compensation expense for the leo options and performance shares of $3.4, $3.7, and $4.1, for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively.

 

For leo, the Company recognized tax benefits of $0.7, $0.1, and $0.7, in 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively.

 

Commencing in 2011, ING introduced a new long-term equity and deferred bonus plan, the Long-Term Sustainable Performance Plan (“LSPP”).  The terms applicable to an award under the LSPP will be set out in a grant agreement which is signed by the

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

participant when he or she accepts the award.  The LSPP will provide employees of the Company who are selected by the ING Executive Board with performance shares and will also require deferral of discretionary incentive bonus awards in excess of EU 100,000.  The performance shares awarded under the LSPP will be a contingent grant of ING ADR units and on settlement, the participant will have the right to either receive ING ADR units in kind or a cash amount equal to the closing price per ING share on the Euronent Amsterdam Stock Market on the settlement date times the number of vested ADR units, subject to achievement during the vesting period of performance targets based on return of equity and employee engagement. The excess bonus amount will be held in deferred ING ADR units or in a deferred cash account, or some combination thereof, depending on the total amount of the incentive bonus award, generally subject to vesting in three equal tranches over the three year period commencing on the date of incentive bonus payment.  Unlike the leo plan, no options on ING shares in the form of ADRs will be granted under the LSPP.  To vest in performance shares, deferred shares or deferred cash, an employee must generally be actively employed on the settlement date, although immediate full and partial vesting in the event of normal age or early retirement, death or disability, or termination due to redundancy or business divestiture will occur, similar to the vesting treatment in the leo plan.

 

In addition, the Company, in conjunction with ING North America, sponsors the following benefit plans:

 

§

The ING 401(k) Plan for ILIAC Agents, which allows participants to defer a specified percentage of eligible compensation on a pre-tax basis. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company match equals 60% of a participant’s pre-tax deferral contribution, with a maximum of 6% of the participant’s eligible pay. A request for a determination letter on the qualified status of the ING 401(k) Plan for ILIAC Agents was filed with the IRS on January 1, 2008. A favorable determination letter was received dated January 5, 2011.

§

The Producers’ Incentive Savings Plan, which allows participants to defer up to a specified portion of their eligible compensation on a pre-tax basis. The Company matches such pre-tax contributions at specified amounts.

§

The Producers’ Deferred Compensation Plan, which allows participants to defer up to a specified portion of their eligible compensation on a pre-tax basis.

§

Certain health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees and their eligible dependents. The post retirement health care plan is contributory, with retiree contribution levels adjusted annually and the Company subsidizes a portion of the monthly per-participant premium. Beginning August 1, 2009, the Company moved from self-insuring these costs and began to use a private-fee-for-service Medicare Advantage program for post-Medicare eligible retired participants. In addition, 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. The Company continues to offer access to medical coverage until retirees become eligible for Medicare. The life insurance plan provides a flat amount of noncontributory coverage and optional contributory coverage.

§

The ING Americas Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, which is a non-qualified defined benefit restoration pension plan.

§

The ING Americas Deferred Compensation Savings Plan, which is a deferred compensation plan that includes a 401(k) excess component.

 

The benefit charges allocated to the Company related to these plans for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, were $11.9, $12.1, and $13.9, respectively.

Investment Advisory and Other Fees

 

Effective January 1, 2007, ILIAC’s investment advisory agreement to serve as investment advisor to certain variable funds offered in Company products (collectively, the “Company Funds”), was assigned to DSL. ILIAC is also compensated by the separate accounts for bearing mortality and expense risks pertaining to variable life and annuity contracts.

The total amount of compensation and fees received by the Company from the Company Funds and separate accounts totaled $246.1, $212.3, and $255.2, (excludes fees paid to ING Investment Management Co.) in 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively.

C-72



 

ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

ILIAC incurred no interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008.  At December 31, 2010 and 2009, ILIAC had no amounts outstanding under the revolving note facility.

 

Windsor Property Loan

 

On June 16, 2007, the State of Connecticut acting by the Department of Economic and Community Development (“DECD”) loaned ILIAC $9.9 (the “DECD Loan”) in connection with the development of the corporate office facility located at One Orange Way, Windsor, Connecticut that serves as the principal executive offices of the Company (the “Windsor Property”). The loan has a term of twenty years and bears an annual interest rate of 1.00%. As long as no defaults have occurred under the loan, no payments of principal or interest are due for the initial ten years of the loan. For the second ten years of the DECD Loan term, ILIAC is obligated to make monthly payments of principal and interest.

 

The DECD Loan provided for loan forgiveness during the first five years of the term at varying amounts up to $5.0 if ILIAC and its affiliates met certain employment thresholds at the Windsor Property during that period.  On December 1, 2008, the DECD determined that the Company had met the employment thresholds for loan forgiveness and, accordingly, forgave $5.0 of the DECD Loan to ILIAC in accordance with the terms of the DECD Loan. The DECD Loan provides additional loan forgiveness at varying amounts up to $4.9 if ILIAC and its ING affiliates meet certain employment thresholds at the Windsor Property during years five through ten of the loan. ILIAC’s obligations under the DECD Loan are secured by an unlimited recourse guaranty from its affiliate, ING North America Insurance Corporation.

 

At both December 31, 2010 and 2009, the amount of the loan outstanding was $4.9 which was reflected in Notes payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

Also see Financing Agreements in the Related Party Transactions footnote.

 

 

11.                            Reinsurance

 

At December 31, 2010, the Company had reinsurance treaties with 6 unaffiliated reinsurers covering a significant portion of the mortality risks and guaranteed death benefits under its variable contracts.  At December 31, 2010, the Company did not have any outstanding cessions under any reinsurance treaties with affiliated reinsurers.  The Company remains liable to the extent its reinsurers do not meet their obligations under the reinsurance agreements.

 

On October 1, 1998, the Company disposed of its individual life insurance business under an indemnity reinsurance arrangement with a subsidiary of Lincoln for $1.0 billion in cash.  Under the agreement, the Lincoln subsidiary contractually assumed from the

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

Company certain policyholder liabilities and obligations, although the Company remains obligated to contract owners.  The Lincoln subsidiary established a trust to secure its obligations to the Company under the reinsurance transaction.

 

The Company assumed $25.0 of premium revenue from Aetna Life, for the purchase and administration of a life contingent single premium variable payout annuity contract. In addition, the Company is also responsible for administering fixed annuity payments that are made to annuitants receiving variable payments. Reserves of $11.5 and $11.6 were maintained for this contract as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

 

Reinsurance ceded in force for life mortality risks were $17.4 billion and $18.6 billion at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, net receivables were comprised of the following:

Leases

 

Prior to December 31, 2008, the Company leased certain office space and certain equipment under various operating leases and paid substantially all expenses associated with its leased and subleased office properties. Any expenses not paid directly by the Company were paid for by an affiliate and allocated back to the Company.  However, as of December 31, 2008, all of the Company’s expenses for leased and subleased office properties will be paid for by an affiliate and allocated back to the Company, as all operating leases were terminated or consolidated by ING AIH during the fourth quarter of 2008, which resulted in the Company no longer being party to any operating leases. For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, rent expense for leases was $4.0, $5.1, and $6.1, respectively.

Commitments

 

Through the normal course of investment operations, the Company commits to either purchase or sell securities, commercial mortgage loans, or money market instruments, at a specified future date and at a specified price or yield.  The inability of counterparties to honor these commitments may result in either a higher or lower replacement cost.  Also, there is likely to be a change in the value of the securities underlying the commitments.

 

At December 31, 2010, the Company had off-balance sheet commitments to purchase investments equal to their fair value of $336.3, of which $144.0 was with related parties.  At December 31, 2009, the Company had off-balance sheet commitments to purchase investments equal to their fair value of $305.1, of which $218.5 was with related parties.  During 2010 and 2009, $69.1 and $46.8, respectively, was funded to related parties under these commitments.

 

Collateral

 

Under the terms of the Company’s Over-The-Counter Derivative ISDA Agreements (“ISDA Agreements”), the Company may receive from, or deliver to, counterparties, collateral to assure that all terms of the ISDA Agreements will be met with regard to the CSA.  The terms of the CSA call for the Company to pay interest on any cash received equal to the Federal Funds rate.  As of December 31, 2010, the Company held $4.7, of cash collateral, which was included in Payables under securities loan agreement, including collateral held, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2009, the Company did not hold any cash collateral. In addition, as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company delivered collateral of $93.8 and $130.3, respectively, in fixed maturities pledged under derivatives contracts, which was included in Securities pledged on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

Litigation

 

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/ arbitrations, 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.

  Section 33-779 of the Connecticut General Statutes (“CGS”) provides that a corporation may provide
  indemnification of or advance expenses to a director, officer, employee or agent only as permitted by
  Sections 33-770 to 33-778, inclusive, of the CGS. Reference is hereby made to Section 33-771(e) of the
  CGS regarding indemnification of directors and Section 33-776(d) of CGS regarding indemnification
  of officers, employees and agents of Connecticut corporations. These statutes provide in general that
  Connecticut corporations incorporated prior to January 1, 1997 shall, except to the extent that their
  certificate of incorporation expressly provides otherwise, indemnify their directors, officers, employees
  and agents against “liability” (defined as the obligation to pay a judgment, settlement, penalty, fine,
  including an excise tax assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan, or reasonable expenses
  incurred with respect to a proceeding) when (1) a determination is made pursuant to Section 33-775
  that the party seeking indemnification has met the standard of conduct set forth in Section 33-771 or (2)
  a court has determined that indemnification is appropriate pursuant to Section 33-774. Under Section
  33-775, the determination of and the authorization for indemnification are made (a) by two or more
  disinterested directors, as defined in Section 33-770(3); (b) by special legal counsel; (c) by the
  shareholders; or (d) in the case of indemnification of an officer, agent or employee of the corporation,
  by the general counsel of the corporation or such other officer(s) as the board of directors may specify.
  Also Section 33-772 with Section 33-776 provide that a corporation shall indemnify an individual who
  was wholly successful on the merits or otherwise against reasonable expenses incurred by him in
  connection with a proceeding to which he was a party because he is or was a director, officer,
  employee, or agent of the corporation. Pursuant to Section 33-771(d), in the case of a proceeding by or
  in the right of the corporation or with respect to conduct for which the director, officer, agent or
  employee was adjudged liable on the basis that he received a financial benefit to which he was not
  entitled, indemnification is limited to reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding
  against the corporation to which the individual was named a party.
 
  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 Connecticut, ING America

Item 32. Undertakings
Registrant hereby undertakes:
(i) to file a post-effective amendment to this registration statement on Form N-4 as frequently as is
  necessary to ensure that the audited financial statements in the registration statement are never
  more than sixteen months old for as long as payments under the variable annuity contracts may be
  accepted;
(ii) to include as part of any application to purchase a contract offered by a prospectus which is part of
  this registration statement on Form N-4, a space that an applicant can check to request a Statement
  of Additional Information or a post card or similar written communication affixed to or included
  in the Prospectus that the applicant can remove to send for a Statement of Additional Information;
  and
(iii) to deliver any Statement of Additional Information and any financial statements required to be
  made available under this Form N-4 promptly upon written or oral request.
 
The Company hereby represents that it is relying upon and complies with the provisions of Paragraphs (1) through
(4) of the SEC Staff's No-Action Letter dated November 28, 1988 with respect to language concerning withdrawal
restrictions applicable to plans established pursuant to Section 403(b) of the Internal Revenue Code. See American
Counsel of Life Insurance; SEC No-Action Letter, [1988 WL 1235221 *13 (S.E.C.)]
 
Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,
officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the 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 it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company represents that the fees and charges deducted under the contracts covered
by this registration statement, in the aggregate, are reasonable in relation to the services rendered, expenses expected
to be incurred, and the risks assumed by ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company.
 
The Depositor and Registrant rely on SEC regulation.
