Overview of the Policy
What is the purpose of the Policy?
Lincoln LifeGoalsSM  is a flexible premium variable life insurance policy. Its primary purpose is to provide Policy Owners with death benefit protection. In exchange for your Premium Payments, upon the death of the Insured, we will pay the Beneficiary a death benefit. For Policy Owners who need death benefit protection, the Policy can also be a helpful financial tool for financial and investment planning.
The Policy may not be appropriate if you do not have a long term investment time horizon. Although Policy Owners have access to their money at any time, it is not intended for people who may need to make frequent withdrawals or access their money within a short time frame, as such withdrawals can reduce the level of death benefit protection.
When do I have to pay Premiums and how do they get invested?
After the initial Premium Payment is made, you should pay your Planned Premium to allow you the full benefit, as illustrated, after the Target Age. If you pay the No-Lapse minimum premium, the payments will carry the Policy to your chosen Target Age. You may generally select and vary the frequency and the amount of any Premium Payments up to the Insured’s Attained Age of 121.
We allocate your Premium Payment at your direction among the Policy’s Sub-Accounts. Please see Principal Risks of Investing in the Policy in the prospectus for more information. Monies allocated to the Sub-Account purchase shares of funds that follow investment objectives similar to the investment objectives of the corresponding Sub-Account. We refer to these funds as “Underlying Funds,” and they are collectively known as the Elite Series. More information about the Underlying Funds is provided in an Appendix. Please see Appendix A: Funds Available Under the Policy. Comprehensive information on the funds may be found in the funds’ prospectuses which are available online at www.lfg.com/VULprospectus. You can also obtain this information at no cost by calling 1-800-487-1485 or by sending an email request to CustServSupportTeam@lfg.com.
Although Premium Payments are not required, from time to time, there may be insufficient value to cover the Policy’s Monthly Deductions. If this happens, a Premium Payment will be needed in order to ensure that Policy’s Cash Value is sufficient to pay the Monthly Deductions. If a Premium Payment is not made, the Policy will lapse.
What are the primary features and options that the Policy Offers?
Death Benefit Protection. Upon the death of the Insured, we will pay your designated Beneficiary a death benefit. See the Death Benefit section of this prospectus for more information.
Access to Policy Values through Surrenders and Withdrawals. You may request a Full Surrender of your Policy, and we will pay you its Cash Value. You may also take a Withdrawal, which is a portion of the Cash Value.
Loans. You may take a loan on the Policy, which is subject to interest.
Transfers. Generally, you may transfer funds among the Sub-Accounts. We offer Automatic Rebalancing as an automated transfer program. You may incur an additional fee for transfers.
Tax Treatment. Variable life insurance policies have significant tax advantages under current tax law. Policy values accumulate on a tax-deferred basis until withdrawn, and transfers from one Sub-Account to another generate no current taxable gain or loss.

Standard DEATH BENEFITS
The “Death Benefit Proceeds” is the amount payable to the Beneficiary upon the death of the Insured. Loans, loan interest, Withdrawals, and overdue charges (such as Monthly Deductions), if any, are deducted prior to payment of the Death Benefit Proceeds. Certain policy options may impact the amount payable as Death Benefit Proceeds in your Policy.
Death Benefit Proceeds
The Death Benefit Proceeds payable upon the death of the Insured will be the greater of:
1) the amount determined under the Death Benefit Option in effect on the date of the Insured’s death, plus any amount payable upon death from other benefits, less any Debt and less any Withdrawals processed after the Insured’s date of death; or
2) an amount equal to the Accumulation Value on the date of the Insured’s death, multiplied by the applicable percentage shown in the Corridor Percentages Table in the Policy Specifications, plus any amount payable upon death from benefits, less any Debt and less any Withdrawals processed after the Insured’s date of death. (Please note that the investment performance of the Sub-Accounts you have chosen will impact the Accumulation Value and therefore may affect the amount of Death Benefit Proceeds payable.)
Death Benefit Options
Death Benefit Option 2 is the Death Benefit Option in effect on the Policy Date as shown in the Policy Specifications and as described below. Death Benefit Option 1 will be available if you choose to elect a change during the Death Benefit Option Change Period as described in the Changes in Insurance provision of your Policy.
Option Death Benefit Option Variability
1 The Life Insurance Amount on the date of the Insured’s death. None, level death benefit
2 The Life Insurance Amount on the date of the Insured’s death plus the Accumulation Value on the date of death, less any Withdrawals processed after the Insured’s date of death. May increase or decrease over time, depending on the amount of Premium paid and the investment performance of the Sub-Accounts.
A Withdrawal after the date of death is an amount we may have paid to the Owner after the date of the Insured’s death but before the death of the Insured was reported to us.
The Death Benefit Option in effect will impact the Cost of Insurance Charge because the Cost of Insurance Charge is based upon the Net Amount at Risk. The Net Amount at Risk for your Policy is the difference between the death benefit and the Accumulation Value of your Policy. Therefore, for example, if you choose Death Benefit Option 1, if your Accumulation Value increases (because of positive investment results), your Cost of Insurance Charge may be less than if your Accumulation Value did not increase or declined. (See section headed “Cost of Insurance” for discussion of Cost of Insurance Charges.)
The death benefit payable under any of the death benefit options will also be reduced by the amount necessary to repay the Debt in full and, if the Policy is within the Grace Period, any payment required to keep the Policy in force.
Withdrawals may also reduce the death benefit payable under any of the death benefit options (See section headed “Policy Surrenders - Withdrawal” for details as to the impact a Withdrawal will have on the death benefit payable under each option.)

Death Benefit Qualification Test
This Policy is issued with the “Guideline Premium Test” defined in Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended (“Code”). The Guideline Premium Test calculates the maximum amount of Premium that may be paid to provide the desired amount of insurance for an Insured of a particular age. Because payment of a Premium amount in excess of this amount will disqualify the Policy as life insurance, we will return to you any amount of such excess. The test also applies a prescribed percentage factor, to determine a minimum ratio of death benefit to Accumulation Value. A table of the applicable percentage factors will be included as a part of the Policy Specifications when you receive your Policy.
Should you have any questions regarding the Guideline Premium Test, please consult with a qualified tax advisor.
Please ask your registered representative for illustrations which demonstrate the impact of the Guideline Premium Test on your Policy.
Payment of Death Benefit Proceeds
Proof of death should be furnished to us at our Administrative Office as soon as possible after the death of the Insured. This notification must include a certified copy of an official death certificate, a certified copy of a decree of a court of competent jurisdiction as to the finding of death, or any other proof satisfactory to us.
After receipt at our Administrative Office of proof of death of the Insured, the Death Benefit Proceeds will ordinarily be paid within seven days. The proceeds will be paid in a lump sum or in accordance with any settlement option selected by the Owner or the Beneficiary. Payment of the Death Benefit Proceeds may be delayed if your Policy is contested or if Separate Account Values cannot be determined.
Every state has unclaimed property laws which generally declare property, including monies owed (such as death benefits) to be abandoned if unclaimed or uncashed after a period (typically three to five years) from the date the property is intended to be delivered or date the death benefit is due and payable. For example, if the payment of a death benefit has been triggered and, if after a thorough search, we are still unable to locate the Beneficiary of the death benefit, or the Beneficiary does not come forward to claim the death benefit in a timely manner, the death benefit will be paid to the abandoned property division or unclaimed property office of the state in which the Beneficiary or the Owner last resided, as shown on our books and records, or to our state of domicile. This “escheatment” is revocable, however, and the state is obligated to pay the death benefit (without interest) if your Beneficiary steps forward to claim it with the proper documentation. To prevent such escheatment, it is important that you contact us and update your Beneficiary designations, including addresses, if and as they change.
Other Benefits Available Under the Policy
In addition to the Death Benefit under the Policy, other standard and optional benefits may also be available to you. The following table summarizes information about those benefits. Information about the fees associated with each benefit included in the table may be found in the Fee Table.

Buying the Policy
Premiums
You may select and vary the frequency and the amount of Premium Payments and the allocation of Premium Payments. After the initial Premium Payment is made there is no minimum Premium required, except to keep the Policy in force. Premium Payments may be required from time to time in order to ensure that the Cash Value of the Policy is sufficient to pay the Monthly Deductions. Otherwise, the Policy will lapse. (See the “Lapse and Reinstatement” section of this prospectus). Premiums may be paid any time before the Insured attains age 121, subject to our right to limit the amount or frequency of additional Premium Payments. (See the “Planned Premiums; Additional Premiums” section of this prospectus).
The initial Premium must be paid for policy coverage to be effective.
Allocation of Premium Payments
The Policy allows you to allocate Premium Payments to a Separate Account. We will direct any Premium Payment into the Separate Account according to the account allocation instructions you provide.
You first designate the allocation of Premium Payments among the Sub-Accounts on a form provided by us for that purpose. Premium Payments will be allocated on the same basis as the initial Premium Payment unless we are instructed otherwise, in writing. You may change the allocation of Premium Payments among the Sub-Accounts at any time.
The amount of Premium Payments allocated to the Sub-Accounts must be in whole percentages and must total 100%. We credit Premium Payments to your Policy as of the end of the “Valuation Period” in which it is received in
11

 

Good Order at our Administrative Office. Premium Payments received from you or your broker-dealer in Good Order at our Administrative Office prior to the close of the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time on a business day), will be processed using the accumulation unit value computed on that Valuation Date. Premium Payments received in Good Order after market close will be processed using the accumulation unit value computed on the next Valuation Date. Premium Payments submitted to your registered representative will generally not be processed by us until they are received from your representative’s broker-dealer.  Premium Payments placed with your broker-dealer after market close will be processed using the accumulation unit value computed on the next Valuation Date. There may be circumstances under which the NYSE may close early (prior to 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). In such instances, Premium Payments received after such early market close will be processed using the accumulation unit value computed on the next Valuation Date.
The Valuation Period is the time between “Valuation Days”. A Valuation Day is every day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open and trading is unrestricted. Your policy values are calculated on every Valuation Day.
Planned Premiums; Additional Premiums
Planned Premiums are the amount of periodic Premium (as shown in the Policy Specifications) you choose to pay the Company on a scheduled basis. This is the amount for which we send a Premium reminder notice. We reserve the right to stop sending Premium reminder notices if no Premium Payment has been made within 2 Policy Years. Premium Payments may be billed annually, semi-annually, or quarterly. You may arrange for monthly pre-authorized automatic Premium Payments at any time. In addition to any Planned Premium, you may make additional Premium Payments.
Unless you specifically direct otherwise, any payment received (other than any Premium Payment necessary to prevent, or cure, Policy Lapse) will be applied as Premium and will not repay any outstanding loans.
You may increase Planned Premiums, or pay additional Premiums, subject to certain limitations. We reserve the right to limit the amount or frequency of additional Premium Payments. You may decrease Planned Premiums. However, doing so will impact your policy values and may impact how long your Policy remains in force.
We may require evidence of insurability if any payment of additional Premium (including Planned Premium) would increase the difference between the Life Insurance Amount and the Accumulation Value. If we are unwilling to accept the risk, your increase in Premium will be refunded without interest.
We may decline any additional Premium (including Planned Premium) or a portion of a Premium that would cause total Premium Payments to exceed the limit for life insurance under federal tax laws. Our test for whether or not your Policy exceeds the limit is referred to as the Guideline Premium Test. The excess amount of Premium will be returned to you. We may accept alternate instructions from you regarding any excess Premium. Refer to the section headed “Tax Issues” for more information.
How your policy can lapse
If at any time:
1) the Cash Value of the Policy is insufficient to pay the Monthly Deduction,
2) the Overloan Protection Provision is not activated; and
3) the provisions of the No-Lapse Enhancement Provision are not preventing termination of the Policy, then all coverage will terminate. This is referred to as “Policy Lapse”.
The Cash Value may be insufficient:
1) because it has been exhausted by earlier deductions;
2) as a result of poor investment performance;
3) due to Withdrawals;
12

 

4) due to Debt for Policy Loans; or
5) because of a combination of any of these factors.
If we have not received your Premium Payment (or payment of Debt on Policy Loans) necessary so that the Cash Value of your Policy is sufficient to pay the Monthly Deduction amount on a Monthly Anniversary Day, we will send a written notice to you, or any assignee of record. The notice will state the amount of the Premium Payment (or payment of Debt on Policy Loans) that must be paid to avoid termination of your Policy.
If the amount stated in the notice is not paid to us within the Grace Period and any Premium Reserve Accumulation Value automatically transferred at the end of the Grace Period is also insufficient to keep the Policy in force, then the Policy will terminate. The Grace Period is the later of (a) 31 days after the notice was mailed, and (b) 61 days after the Monthly Anniversary Day on which the Monthly Deduction could not be paid. If the Insured dies during the Grace Period, we will deduct any charges due to us from any death benefit that may be payable under the terms of the Policy.
Reinstatement of a Lapsed Policy
If your Policy has lapsed and the Insured has not died since lapse, you may reinstate your Policy within five years of the Policy Lapse date, provided:
1) it has not been surrendered;
2) there is an application for reinstatement in writing;
3) satisfactory evidence of insurability is furnished to us and we agree to accept the risk for the Insured;
4) we receive a payment sufficient to keep your Policy in force for at least two months after the date of reinstatement; and
5) any loan interest accrued during the Grace Period is paid and any remaining Debt is either paid or reinstated.
The reinstated Policy will be effective as of the Monthly Anniversary Day on or next following the date on which we approve your application for reinstatement. Your Accumulation Value at reinstatement will be the Premium Payment then made less all Monthly Deductions due. If a Policy Loan is being reinstated, the Policy's Accumulation Value at reinstatement will be the Accumulation Value on the date the Policy Lapsed plus the Premium Payment made less all Monthly Deductions due.
Making withdrawals: accessing the money in your policy
You may surrender your Policy at any time for its Cash Value, while this Policy is in force and the Insured is living, by utilizing the online service or by sending us a written request for surrender. If you surrender your Policy, all coverage will automatically terminate and may not be reinstated. Consult your tax advisor to understand tax consequences of any surrender you are considering.
The Cash Value of your Policy is the amount you can receive by surrendering the Policy. The Cash Value is the Policy’s Accumulation Value less any Debt. Policy Debt includes loans under the Policy.
If we receive a surrender or Withdrawal request in Good Order at our Administrative Office before the close of the New York Stock Exchange (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time on a business day), we will process the request using the accumulation unit value computed on that Valuation Date.  If we receive a surrender or Withdrawal request in our Administrative Office after market close, we will process the request using the accumulation unit value computed on the next Valuation Date.  There may be circumstances under which the New York Stock Exchange may close early (prior to 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). In such circumstances, surrenders or Withdrawals requested after such early market close will be processed using the accumulation unit value computed on the next Valuation Date.
Any surrender results in a withdrawal of values from the Sub-Accounts that have values allocated to them. Any surrender from a Sub-Account will result in the cancellation of Variable Accumulation Units. The cancellation of
13

 

such units will be based on the Variable Accumulation Unit Value determined at the close of the Valuation Period during which the surrender is effective. Surrender proceeds will generally be paid within seven days of our receipt of your request.
Withdrawal
You may make a Withdrawal of a portion of your policy values. You must request a Withdrawal by utilizing the online service or in writing. The amount of any Withdrawal may not exceed 90% of the Policy's Cash Value as of the date of your request for a Withdrawal. We may limit Withdrawals to the extent necessary to meet the federal tax law requirements. If you wish to make a Withdrawal in excess of 90% of the Cash Value of your Policy, you must specifically request a Full Surrender of your Policy. Your Policy’s Cash Value equals the Policy’s Accumulation Value less any Debt. Policy Loans are Debt under your Policy and will reduce the Cash Value available to you.
Withdrawals will reduce the Accumulation Value and may reduce the Life Insurance Amount.
If Death Benefit Option 1 is in effect, the Death Benefit Proceeds will be reduced. The Life Insurance Amount may also be reduced. The amount of the reduction will be equal to the greater of:
a. zero; or
b. an amount equal to the amount of the Withdrawal minus the greater of i) zero or ii) result of [(1) minus (2)] divided by (3) where:
(1) is an amount equal to the Accumulation Value on the Valuation Day immediately prior to the Withdrawal multiplied by the applicable percentage shown in the Corridor Percentages Table in the Policy Specifications;
(2) is the Life Insurance Amount immediately prior to the Withdrawal; and
(3) is the applicable percentage shown in the Corridor Percentages Table in the Policy Specifications.
If the Death Benefit Option 2 is in effect, the Death Benefit Proceeds will be reduced by the amount of the Withdrawal. The Life Insurance Amount will not be reduced.
Withdrawal proceeds will generally be paid within seven days of our receipt of your request.
