  7. IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND STATE REQUIRED NOTICES
To help the government fight the funding for terrorism and money-laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions
to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. What this means for you — when you
apply for an annuity, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you.
We may also ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents. If you wish to have a more detailed explanation of
our
information practices, please write to: Customer Service Center, ING Annuities, 909 Locust Street, Des Moines, IA 50309-
2899.
Pursuant to federal law (the Defense of Marriage Act of 1996), certain favorable federal tax treatment available to
opposite-sex spouses is not available to same-sex spouses. For instance, federal tax law allows a surviving spouse who is
designated the beneficiary under an annuity to continue the annuity when the owner dies. This alternative death benefit option
is not available to a same-sex spouse beneficiary. If you are a same-sex spouse, we suggest that you consult with a tax
advisor prior to purchasing an annuity contract, such as this one, which provides spousal benefits.
Below are notices that apply only in certain states. Please read the following carefully to see if any apply in your
state. Arkansas, Louisiana, Maine, New Mexico, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Washington, West Virginia: Any person who
knowingly and with intent to injure, defraud or deceive any insurance company, submits an application for insurance containing
any materially false, incomplete, or misleading information, or conceals for the purpose of misleading, any material fact, is guilty
of insurance fraud, which is a crime and in certain states, a felony. Penalties may include imprisonment, fine, denial of benefits,
or civil damages.
Arizona: On receiving your written request, we will provide you with information regarding the benefits and provisions
of the annuity contract for which you have applied. If you are not satisfied, you may cancel your contract by returning
it within 10 days, or within 30 days if you are 65 years of age or older on the date of the application for the annuity,
after the date you receive it. Any premium paid for the returned contract will be refunded without interest.
Colorado: It is unlawful to knowingly provide false, incomplete, or misleading facts or information to an insurance company for
the purpose of defrauding or attempting to defraud the company. Penalties may include imprisonment, fines, denial of
insurance, and civil damages. Any insurance company or agent of an insurance company who knowingly provides false,
incomplete, or misleading facts or information to a policy holder or claimant for the purpose of defrauding or attempting to
defraud the policy holder or claimant with regard to a settlement or award payable from insurance proceeds shall be
reported to the Colorado Division of Insurance within the Department of Regulatory Agencies.
District of Columbia: WARNING: It is a crime to provide false or misleading information to an insurer for the purpose of
defrauding
the insurer or any other person. Penalties include imprisonment and/or fines. In addition, an insurer may deny insurance benefits,
if
false information materially related to a claim was provided by the applicant.
Florida: ANY PERSON WHO KNOWINGLY AND WITH INTENT TO INJURE, DEFRAUD, OR DECEIVE ANY INSURER FILES A
STATEMENT
OF CLAIM OR AN APPLICATION CONTAINING ANY FALSE, INCOMPLETE, OR MISLEADING INFORMATION IS GUILTY
OF A FELONY
OF THE THIRD DEGREE.
Kentucky: Any person who knowingly and with intent to defraud any insurance company or other person files an application for
insurance containing any materially false information or conceals, for the purpose of misleading, information concerning any
fact
material thereto commits a fraudulent insurance act, which is a crime.
Maryland: Any person who knowingly and willfully presents a false or fraudulent claim for payment of a loss or benefit or who knowingly and
willfully presents false information in an application for insurance is guilty of a crime and may be subject to fines and confinement in
prison. New Jersey: Any person who includes any false or misleading information on an application for an insurance policy
is subject to criminal and civil penalties.
Pennsylvania: Any person who knowingly and with intent to defraud any insurance company or other person files an application
for insurance or statement of claim containing any materially false information or conceals for the purpose of
misleading,
information concerning any fact material thereto commits a fraudulent insurance act, which is a crime and subjects such person
to



criminal and civil penalties.
Virginia: Any person who, with the intent to defraud or knowing that he is facilitating a fraud against an insurer, submits an
application or files a claim containing a false or deceptive statement may have violated the state law.

SPECIAL REMARKS   

By signing below, I acknowledge receipt of the prospectus. My signature also serves as a representation that: (a) all
statements
and answers in this form, which include my allocation instructions indicated in Section 10, are complete and true to the best
of
my knowledge and belief and may be relied upon in determining whether to issue the applied for annuity; and (b) the owner has
an insurable interest, as defined above and in more detail in the prospectus, in the life of the annuitant. Only the owner and the
Company have the authority to modify this form. After reviewing my financial information, I believe this contract is suitable and
will meet my financial goals and objectives. I understand that the contract value and variable annuity payments may increase
or decrease depending on the results of the variable sub-accounts, and that no minimum contract value or variable annuity
payment
is guaranteed. I understand that when based on the investment experience of the variable separate account, the variable
annuity cash surrender values may increase or decrease on any day and that no minimum value is guaranteed. I understand
that Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) already provide tax deferral like that provided by the contract. For an additional
cost, this contract provides additional features and benefits, including death benefits and the ability to receive a lifetime
income. I understand that
I should purchase an annuity contract only if I have taken into account the cost of these features and benefits. The death
benefit
is the greater of the accumulation value or premium(s) paid adjusted pro rata for withdrawals. The death benefit allocated to
the variable sub-accounts will be automatically reallocated to ING Money Market upon the date we receive proof of death. I
understand that any withdrawals taken prior to age 65 or in excess of the then current maximum annual withdrawal (MAW) will
result in a pro rata reduction to the benefit base and the future MAW. I also understand that the MAW schedule will be
determined upon the first withdrawal (including any withdrawal to satisfy RMD requirements), which may prevent the
participation in a higher MAW schedule. Additional information about the contract can be found in the prospectus.
TAXPAYER CERTIFICATION
Under penalties of perjury, my/our signature(s) certifies/certify that:
1. The number shown on this form is my correct taxpayer identification number (or I am waiting for a number to be issued to me).
2. I am not subject to backup withholding because (a) I have not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) that I
am subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest or dividends, or (b) the IRS has notified me that
am
no longer subject to backup withholding.
3. I am a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien.
The IRS does not require your consent to any provision of this document other than the certifications required to avoid
backup withholding.
