NOTICE OF REORGANIZATIONS

Effective after the close of business on March 12, 2010, the following investment portfolios indicated as Disappearing Portfolios will reorganize into and become part of the investment portfolios indicated as Surviving Portfolios:

                               Disappearing Portfolios  Surviving Portfolios

Important Information Regarding Reorganizations:

These reorganizations will be administered pursuant to a proposed Agreement and Plan of Reorganization by the Board of Trustees of the Disappearing Portfolios. Shareholders of Record on December 11, 2009 will receive a proxy in the mail. The reorganization agreement will be subject to shareholder approval at a special meeting of the shareholders to be held on February 19, 2010. If shareholder approval is obtained, it is expected that the reorganizations will take place after the close of business on March 12, 2010, resulting in a shareholder of a given Disappearing Portfolio becoming a shareholder of the corresponding Surviving Portfolio. Each shareholder will thereafter hold shares of the Surviving

Portfolio having equal aggregate value as shares of the Disappearing Portfolio, and the Disappearing Portfolio will no longer be available under the contract.

Unless you provide us with alternative allocation instructions, all future allocations directed to a given Disappearing Portfolio will be automatically allocated to the corresponding Surviving Portfolio.

References to the Disappearing Portfolios in the prospectus and Statement of Additional Information are hereby deleted, effective after the close of business on March 12, 2010.

NOTICE OF LIQUIDATION

Effective after the close of business on March 12, 2010, the following investment portfolio indicated as a Liquidating Portfolio will reorganize into and become part of the investment portfolio indicated as a Surviving Portfolio:

Liquidating Portfolio  Surviving Portfolio 
Federated International Equity Fund II  Federated Prime Money Market Fund II 

Important Information Regarding Liquidation:

The liquidation will be administered pursuant to a Plan of Liquidation which was approved by the Board of Trustees of the Liquidating Portfolio on August 14, 2009. The liquidation is expected to take place after the close of business on March 12, 2010. The liquidation will occur because the Board of Trustees of the Liquidating Portfolio concluded that it is in the best interest of shareholders to liquidate the Liquidating Portfolio due to its asset size.

Starting on or about January 12, 2010, you may reallocate contract value in the Liquidating Portfolio to another investment portfolio currently available under the contract. Contract value remaining in the Liquidating Portfolio on the liquidation date will be placed in the Surviving Portfolio. Thereafter, the Liquidating Portfolio will no longer be available under the contract.

Unless you provide us with alternative allocation instructions, all future allocations directed to the Liquidating Portfolio will be automatically allocated to the Surviving Portfolio. It is important to request a reallocation before the liquidation date if you do not want your contract value in the Liquidating Portfolio to be placed in the Surviving Portfolio.

References to the Liquidating Portfolio in the prospectus and Statement of Additional Information are hereby deleted, effective on and after March 12, 2010.
