Important Information about the Substitutions.

  • Pursuant to the schedule outlined below, subaccounts which invest in the Substitute Funds will be available through your variable annuity contract and all references in your Contract Prospectus, Contract Prospectus Summary and SAI to the name of a Replaced Fund will be replaced with the name of the corresponding Substitute Fund.
  • Pursuant to the schedule outlined below, the subaccounts which invest in the Replaced Funds will no longer be available through your variable annuity contract.
  • The fund substitutions will be accomplished pursuant to the following schedule.
  •  
     

    A.

    For contracts administered on our OMNI and RPS administrative systems, the fund substitutions will occur on April 15, 2005, at which time both existing investments and ongoing allocations to the Replaced Funds will be substituted with the corresponding Substitute Fund.

         
     

    B.

    For contracts administered on our ACES administrative system, the fund substitution will occur as follows:

         
       

    1.

    On April 8, 2005, ongoing allocations to the Replaced Funds will be substituted with allocations to the corresponding Substitute Funds. No further allocations to the Replaced Funds will be allowed after this date.

       

    2.

    On April 8, 2005, for those contracts in which a participant or contract owner has invested in 18 funds over the life of the contract, existing investments in the Replaced Funds will also be substituted with the corresponding Substitute Fund. Please see your contract prospectus or prospectus summary for more information regarding this 18 fund limit.

       

    3.

    On April 15, 2005, all remaining existing investments in the Replaced Funds will be substituted with the corresponding Substitute Fund.

           
     

    In the limited circumstance where a contract holder or participant invested in one or more of the Replaced Funds has invested in 18 funds over the life of their certificate or contract and has an existing loan under that contract, the fund substitution will not occur pursuant to the above schedule. For these contracts, current allocations to a Replaced Fund will continue to be allowed until we apply the fund substitution to these contracts, currently planned for the fourth quarter of 2005. However, effective April 8, 2005 the Replaced Funds will be closed to transfers and new allocations (including an increase to current allocations). We will notify those participants and contract holders impacted by this delayed schedule prior to the date of the fund substitution applicable to these contracts.

       
    • Prior to the effective date of the substitutions and for thirty days thereafter you may transfer amounts allocated to the subaccounts which invest in the Replaced Funds to any other subaccount or any available fixed account free of charge.
  • Prior to the effective date of the substitutions and for thirty days thereafter any transfer from a subaccount which invests in a Replaced Fund to any other subaccount or any available fixed account will not count as a transfer when imposing any applicable restriction or limit on transfers.
  • You will not incur any fees or charges or any tax liability because of the substitutions, and your account value immediately before the substitutions will equal your account value immediately after the substitutions.
  • The investment objective and policies of each Substitute Fund are the same as, similar to or consistent with the investment objective and policies of the corresponding Replaced Fund. The investment objective of each Substitute Fund is more fully described in each Substitute Fund's prospectus and one-page summary.
  • The total expenses of each Substitute Fund are less than or equal to the total expenses of the corresponding Replaced Fund. The total expenses of each Substitute Fund are more fully described in each Substitute Fund's prospectus and one-page summary.
  • A prospectus or one-page summary for each of the Substitute Funds have been previously sent to you or accompanies this supplement. Read these prospectuses or one-page summaries carefully before deciding what to do with amounts allocated to subaccounts which invest in the Replaced Funds. Should you need additional prospectuses or one-page summaries, please call the number listed in your Contract Prospectus or Contract Prospectus Summary.
