·	allocate Premium payments among the available investment options and Transfer Account Value among available investment options as your investment objectives change; and

Summary of the Policy and its Benefits

This is a summary of some of the most important features of your Policy. The Policy is more fully described in the remainder of this prospectus. Please read this prospectus carefully. Unless otherwise indicated, the description of the Policy in this prospectus assumes that the Policy is in force, there is no Policy Debt and current federal tax laws apply.

1. Corporate-Owned Variable Life Insurance. We will issue Policies to corporations and employers and to certain individuals to provide life insurance coverage in connection with, among other things, deferred compensation plans and employer-financed insurance purchase arrangements. We will issue Policies on the lives of prospective Insureds who meet our underwriting standards.

2. The Series Account. We have established a separate account to fund the variable benefits under the Policy. The assets of the Series Account are insulated from the claims of our general creditors.

3. Premium Payments. You must pay us an Initial Premium to put your Policy in force. The minimum Initial Premium will vary based on various factors, including the age of the Insured and the death benefits option you select, but may not be less than $100.00. Thereafter, you choose the amount and timing of Premium payments, within certain limits.

4. Fixed Account. You may allocate some or all of your net payments and/or make Transfers from the Sub-Accounts to the Fixed Account. The Fixed Account is part of our General Account. We own the assets in the General Account, and we use these assets to support our insurance and annuity obligations other than those funded by our separate accounts. These Fixed Account assets are subject to our general liabilities from business operations. Subject to applicable law, we have sole discretion over investment of the Fixed Account assets. We bear the full investment risk for all amounts allocated or transferred to the Fixed Account.

We guarantee that the amounts allocated to the Fixed Account will be credited interest at a net effective annual interest rate of at least 3.00%. At our discretion, we will review the interest rate at least once a year. We may reset the interest rate monthly. The Fixed Account is not affected by the investment performance of the Sub-Accounts. Policy value in the Fixed Account will be reduced by the Policy fees and charges we deduct and the effects of any Policy transactions (loans, withdrawals, and Transfers) on your Policy value in the Fixed Account.

5. Free Look Period. You may return your Policy to us for any reason within ten days of receiving it, or such longer period as required by applicable state law, and depending on state law, receive (i) the greater of your Premiums, less any withdrawals, or your Account Value, or (ii) your Account Value plus the return of any Expense Charges deducted.

6. Investment Options and Funds. You may allocate your net Premium payments among the available investment divisions ("Divisions") or the Fixed Account.

Each Division invests exclusively in shares of a single Fund. Each Fund has its own distinct investment objective and policies, which are described in the accompanying prospectuses for the Funds.

You may Transfer amounts from one Division to another or the Fixed Account, subject to the restrictions described herein.

7. Death Benefit. You may choose from among two death benefit options –

1.	a fixed benefit equal to the Total Face Amount of your Policy; or

2.	a variable benefit equal to the sum of the Total Face Amount and your Account Value.

For each option, the death benefit may be greater if necessary to satisfy federal tax law requirements.

We will deduct any outstanding Policy Debt and unpaid Policy charges before we pay a death benefit. In addition, prior partial withdrawals may reduce the Death Benefit Proceeds under the first option.

At any time, you may increase or decrease the Total Face Amount, subject to our approval and other requirements set forth in the Policy.

After the first Policy Year, you may change your death benefit option once each Policy Year.

8. Account Value. Your Account Value will reflect –

1.	the Premiums you pay;

2.	the investment performance of the Divisions you select;

3.	the value of the Fixed Account.

4.	any Policy loans or partial withdrawals;

5.	your Loan Account balance; and

6.	the charges we deduct under the Policy.

9. Accessing Your Account Value. You may borrow from us using your Account Value as collateral. Loans may be treated as taxable income if your Policy is a "modified endowment contract" (“MEC”) for federal income tax purposes and you have had positive net investment performance.

You may surrender your Policy for its Cash Surrender Value plus return of expense charge, if applicable. There are no surrender charges associated with your Policy.

You may withdraw a portion of your Account Value at any time while your Policy is in force.

A withdrawal may reduce your death benefit.

We will charge an administrative fee not greater than $25 per withdrawal on partial withdrawals after the first in a Policy Year.

10. Supplemental Benefits. The following optional riders are available –

1.	term life insurance; and

2.	change of Insured.

We will deduct the cost, if any, of the rider(s) from your Account Value on a monthly basis.

11. Paid-Up Life Insurance. If the Insured reaches Attained Age 121 and your Policy is in force, the Account Value, less Policy Debt, will be applied as a single Premium to purchase "paid-up" insurance. Your Account Value will remain in the Series Account allocated to the Divisions or the Fixed Account in accordance with your instructions. The death benefit under this paid-up insurance will be fixed by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”) for Insureds age 99. As your Account Value changes based on the investment experience of the Divisions, the death benefit will increase or decrease accordingly.

12. Reinstatement. If your Policy terminates due to insufficient value, we will reinstate it within three years at your Request, subject to certain conditions.

13. Surrenders. You may surrender your Policy for its Cash Surrender Value at any time while the Insured is living. If you do, the insurance coverage and all other benefits under the Policy will terminate.

If you withdraw part of the Cash Surrender Value, your Policy’s death benefit may be reduced and you may incur taxes and tax penalties.

14. Partial Withdrawal. You may Request a partial withdrawal of Account Value at any time while the Policy is in force. The amount of any partial withdrawal must be at least $500 and may not exceed 90% of your Account Value less the value of the Loan Account.

The Death Benefit Proceeds and your Account Value will be reduced by the amount of any partial withdrawals.

15. Policy Loans. You may borrow from us using your Account Value as collateral. You may Request a Policy loan of up to 90% of your Account Value, decreased by the amount of any outstanding Policy Debt on the date the Policy loan is made.

The minimum Policy loan amount is $500.

16. Changes in Total Face Amount. You may increase or decrease the Total Face Amount of your Policy at any time. Each increase or decrease in the Total Face Amount must be at least $25,000. Minimum face amount is $100,000.

Policy Risks

1. Account Value Not Guaranteed. Your Account Value is not guaranteed. Your Account Value fluctuates based on the performance of the investment options you select. The investment options you select may not perform to your expectations. Your Account Value may also be affected by charges under your Policy.

2. Not Suitable as Short-Term Savings Vehicle. The Policy is designed for long-term financial planning. Accordingly, you should not purchase the Policy if you need access to the Account Value within a short time. Before purchasing a Policy, consider whether the long-term nature of the Policy is consistent with the purposes for which it is being considered.

3. Risk of Contract Lapse. Your Policy may terminate if your Account Value at the beginning of any Policy Month is insufficient to pay the Policy’s monthly charges.

If your Policy would terminate due to insufficient value, we will send you notice and allow you a 61-day grace period.

If, within the grace period, you do not make a Premium payment sufficient to cover all accrued and unpaid charges and deductions, your Policy will terminate at the end of the grace period without further notice.

4. Limitations on Withdrawals. Partial withdrawals of Account Value are permitted at any time the Policy is in force. As noted above, the amount of any partial withdrawal must be at least $500 and may not exceed 90% of your Account Value less the value of the Loan Account. A maximum administrative fee of $25 will be deducted from your Account Value for all partial withdrawals after the first made in the same Policy Year. Please note that withdrawals reduce your Account Value and your Death Benefit Proceeds. In addition, withdrawals may have tax consequences.

5. Limitations on Transfers. Subject to our rules as they may exist from time to time, you may at any time Transfer to another Division all or a portion of the Account Value allocated to a Division. Certain limitations apply to Transfers into and out of the Fixed Account. See "Fixed Account Transfers" on xx.

6. Limitations or Charges on Surrender of Policy. You may surrender your Policy for its Cash Surrender Value at any time while the Insured is living. Upon surrender of your Policy, the insurance coverage and all other benefits under the Policy will terminate.

There are no surrender charges associated with your Policy. However, the surrender of your Policy may have tax consequences.

7. Risks of Taking a Policy Loan. As noted above, you may Request a Policy loan of up to 90% of your Account Value, decreased by the amount of any outstanding Policy Debt on the date the Policy loan is made. The minimum Policy loan amount is $500.

Taking a Policy loan may increase the risk that your Policy will lapse, will reduce your Account Value, and may reduce the death benefit. In addition, if your Policy is a MEC for tax purposes, taking a Policy loan may have tax consequences.

8. Adverse Tax Consequences. Your Policy is structured to meet the definition of a life insurance contract under the Code. Current federal tax law generally excludes all death benefits from the gross income of the Beneficiary of a life insurance policy. Generally, you are not taxed on any increase in the Account Value until it is withdrawn, but are taxed on surrender proceeds and the proceeds of any partial withdrawals if those amounts, when added to all previous non-taxable distributions, exceed the total Premium paid. Amounts received upon surrender or withdrawals in excess of Premiums are treated as ordinary income.

Under certain circumstances, a Policy may become a MEC for federal tax purposes. This may occur if you reduce the Total Face Amount of your Policy or pay excessive Premiums. We will monitor your Premium payments and other Policy transactions and notify you if a payment or other transaction might cause your Policy to become a MEC without your written permission. We will not invest any Premium or portion of a Premium that would cause your Policy to become a MEC, but instead will promptly refund the money to you. If you elect to have a MEC contract, you can return the money to us with a signed form of acceptance.

Under current tax law, Death Benefit Proceeds under MECs generally are excluded from the gross income of the Beneficiary. Withdrawals and Policy loans, however, are treated first as income, to the extent of any gain, and then as a return of Premium. The income portion of the distribution is includable in your taxable income and taxed at ordinary income tax rates. A 10% penalty tax is also generally imposed on the taxable portion of any amount received before age 59 ½.

Fund Risks

The Policy currently offers several variable investment options, each of which is a Division of the Series Account. Each Division uses its assets to purchase, at their net asset value, shares of a Fund. The Divisions are referred to as “variable” because their investment experience depends upon the investment experience of the Funds in which they invest.

We do not guarantee that the Funds will meet their investment objectives. Your Account Value may increase or decrease in value depending on the investment performance of the Funds. You bear the risk that those Funds may not meet their investment objectives. A comprehensive discussion of the risks of each Fund may be found in each Fund’s prospectus, including detailed information concerning investment objectives, strategies, and their investment risk. You may obtain a copy of the Fund prospectuses without charge by contacting us at 888-353-2654. If you received a summary prospectus for a fund, please follow the directions on the first page of the summary prospectus to obtain a copy of the fund's prospectus.

Description of Depositor, Registrant, and Funds

Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company

Great-West is a stock life insurance company organized under the laws of the state of Colorado. Our offices are located at 8515 East Orchard Road, Greenwood Village, Colorado 80111.

We are authorized to do business in 49 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands and Guam. We issue individual and group life insurance policies and annuity contracts and accident and health insurance policies.

Great-West is a wholly owned subsidiary of GWL&A Financial, Inc., a Delaware holding company. GWL&A Financial, Inc. is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Great-West Lifeco Inc., a Canadian holding company. Great-West Lifeco Inc. is a subsidiary of Power Financial Corporation, a Canadian holding company with substantial interests in the financial services industry. Power Financial Corporation is a subsidiary of Power Corporation of Canada, a Canadian holding and management company. Mr. Paul Desmarais, through a group of private holding companies that he controls, has voting control of Power Corporation of Canada.

The Series Account

The Series Account is a segregated asset account of Great-West. We use the Series Account to fund benefits payable under the Policy. The Series Account may also be used to fund benefits payable under other life insurance policies issued by us.

We own the assets of the Series Account, which we hold separate and apart from our General Account assets. The income, gains or losses, realized or unrealized, from assets allocated to the Series Account are credited to or charged against the Series Account without regard to our other income, gains or losses. The income, gains, and losses credited to, or charged against, the Series Account reflect the Series Account’s own investment experience and not the investment experience of Great-West’s other assets. The assets of the Series Account may not be used to pay any liabilities of Great-West other than those arising from the Policies (and any other life insurance policies issued by us and funded by the Series Account).

In calculating our corporate income tax liability, we derive certain corporate income tax benefits associated with the investment of company assets, including Series Account assets that are treated as company assets under applicable income tax law. These benefits, which reduce our overall corporate income tax liability may include dividends received deductions and foreign tax credits which can be material. We do not pass these benefits through to the Series Account or our other separate accounts, principally because: (i) the great bulk of the benefits results from the dividends received deduction, which involves no reduction in the dollar amount of dividends that the Series Account receives; and (ii) under applicable income tax law, Owners are not the owners of the assets generating the benefits.

Great-West is obligated to pay all amounts promised to Owners under the Policies (and any other life insurance policies issued by us and funded by the Series Account).

We will at all times maintain assets in the Series Account with a total market value at least equal to the reserves and other liabilities relating to the variable benefits under all policies participating in the Series Account.

The Series Account is divided into Divisions. Each Division invests exclusively in shares of a corresponding Fund. We may in the future add new or delete existing Divisions. The income, gains or losses, realized or unrealized, from assets allocated to each Division are credited to or charged against that Division without regard to the other income, gains or losses of the other Divisions.

All amounts allocated to a Division will be used to purchase shares of the corresponding Fund. The Divisions will at all times be fully invested in Fund shares. We maintain records of all purchases and redemptions of shares of the Funds.

The Investment Options and Funds

The Policy offers a number of Divisions or Sub-Accounts. Each Division invests in a single Fund. Each Fund is a mutual fund registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), or a separate series of shares of such a mutual fund. More comprehensive information, including a discussion of potential risks, is found in the current prospectuses for the Funds. The fund prospectuses should be read in connection with this prospectus. YOU MAY OBTAIN A PROSPECTUS AND, IF AVAILABLE, A FUND SUMMARY, CONTAINING COMPLETE INFORMATION ON EACH FUND, WITHOUT CHARGE, UPON REQUEST BY CONTACTING US AT 888-353-2654. If you received a summary prospectus for a Fund, please follow the directions on the first page of the summary prospectus to obtain a copy of the Fund's prospectus.

Each Fund holds its assets separate from the assets of the other Funds, and each Fund has its own distinct investment objective and policies. Each Fund operates as a separate investment fund, and the income, gains and losses of one Fund generally have no effect on the investment performance of any other Fund.

The Funds are NOT available to the general public directly. The Funds are available as investment options in variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by life insurance companies or, in some cases, through participation in certain qualified pension or retirement plans.

Some of the Funds have been established by investment advisers that manage publicly available mutual funds having similar names and investment objectives. While some of the Funds may be similar to, and may in fact be modeled after publicly available mutual funds, the Funds are not otherwise directly related to any publicly available mutual fund. Consequently, the investment performance of publicly available mutual funds and any similarly named Fund may differ substantially.

Payments We Receive. Some of the Funds’ investment advisers or affiliates may compensate us for providing the administrative, recordkeeping and reporting services they would normally be required to provide for individual shareholders or cost savings experienced by the investment advisers or affiliates of the Funds. Such compensation is typically a percentage of Series Account assets invested in the relevant Fund and generally may range up to 0.35% of net assets. GWFS Equities, Inc. (“GWFS”), a broker-dealer and subsidiary of Great-West and the principal underwriter and distributor of the Policy, may also receive Rule 12b-1 fees (ranging up to 0.25%) directly from certain Funds for providing distribution related services related to shares of Funds offered in connection with a Rule 12b-1 plan. If GWFS receives 12b-1 fees, combined compensation for administrative and distribution related services generally ranges up to 0.60% annually of Series Account assets invested in a Fund.

If you purchased the Policy through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Funds and their related companies may pay the intermediary for services provided with regard to the sale of Fund shares to the Divisions under the Policy. The amount and/or structure of the compensation can possibly create conflict of interest as it may influence the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to present this Policy (and certain Divisions under the Policy) over other investment alternatives. The variations in compensation, however, may also reflect differences in sales effort or ongoing customer services expected of the broker-dealer or other intermediary or your salesperson. You may ask your salesperson about variations and how he or she and his or her broker-dealer are compensated for selling the Policy or visit your financial intermediary's Web site for more information.

Payments We Make. In addition to the direct cash compensation described above for sales of the Policies, Great-West and/or its affiliates may also pay GWFS agents additional cash and non-cash incentives to promote the sale of the Policies and other products distributed by GWFS, including Portfolios of Maxim Series Fund, which are available Funds under the Policies. Great-West and/or its affiliates may sponsor various contests and promotions subject to applicable FINRA regulations in which GWFS agents may receive prizes such as travel awards, merchandise and cash. Subject to applicable FINRA regulations, Great-West and/or its affiliates may also pay for travel expenses, meals, lodging and entertainment of salespersons in connection with educational and sales promotional programs and sponsor speakers, educational seminars and charitable events.

Cash incentive payments may vary depending on the arrangement in place at any particular time. Cash incentives payable to GWFS agents may be based on certain performance measurements, including a percentage of the net amount invested in certain Funds available under the Policy. These additional payments could be viewed as creating conflicts of interest. In some cases, the payment of incentive-based compensation may create a financial incentive for a GWFS agent to recommend or sell the Policy instead of other products or recommend certain Funds under the Policy over other Funds, which may not necessarily be to your benefit.

The investment policies of the Funds are briefly described below:

Alger Portfolios (advised by Fred Alger Management, Inc.)

Alger Small Cap Growth Portfolio (Class I-2 Shares) seeks long-term capitalization. The Fund focuses on small, fast growing companies that the manager believes offer innovative products, services or technologies to a rapidly-expanding marketplace. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities of companies that, at the time of purchase, have total market capitalization with the range of the companies included in the Russell 2000 Growth Index or the S&P SmallCap 600 Index, as reported by the indexes as of the most recent quarter end.

American Century Variable Portfolios, Inc.

American Century VP Value Fund (Class I Shares) seeks long-term capital growth. Income is a secondary objective. The portfolio managers look for stocks of companies of all sizes that they believe are undervalued at the time of purchase. The managers use a value investment strategy that looks for companies that are temporarily out of favor in the market. The managers attempt to purchase the stocks of these undervalued companies and hold each stock until it has returned to favor in the market and the price has increased to, or is higher than, a level the managers believe more accurately reflects the fair value of the company.

American Century Investment Management, Inc is the adviser for the Fund.

American Century VP VistaSM Fund (Class I Shares) seeks long-term capital growth. The portfolio managers primarily look for stocks of medium-sized and smaller companies they believe will increase in value over time, using an investment strategy developed by American Century Investments. In implementing this strategy, the portfolio managers use a bottom-up approach to stock selection. This means that managers make their investment decisions based primarily on their analysis of individual companies, rather than on broad economic forecasts. Management of the Fund is based on the belief that, over the long term, stock price movements follow growth in earnings and revenues. The portfolio managers’ principal analytical technique involves the identification of companies with earnings and revenues that are not only growing, but growing at an accelerating pace.

Maxim U.S. Government Mortgage Securities Portfolio (formerly known as Maxim U.S. Government Securities Portfolio) seeks the highest level of return consistent with preservation of capital and substantial credit protection. Under normal circumstances, this Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in mortgage-related securities that have been issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or one of its agencies or instrumentalities. The Fund will invest in private mortgage pass-through securities and collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”). CMOs may be issued by private issuers and collateralized by securities issued or guaranteed by the (i) U.S. Government, (ii) agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. Government, or (iii) private originators. The Fund will invest in commercial mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, and investment grade corporate bonds. This Fund will focus on relative value of the security by analyzing the current and expected level of interest rates, and current and historical asset yields versus treasury yields. The Fund also invests in mortgage dollar rolls with up to 20% of its net assets. In a mortgage dollar roll transaction, the Fund sells securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously contracts to repurchase substantially similar securities (the same type, issuer, term and coupon) on a specified future date from the same party.

Maxim Lifetime Asset Allocation Portfolios

Maxim Lifetime 2015 Portfolio II – Class T The Fund seeks capital appreciation and income consistent with its current asset allocation. After 2015 (“transition year”), the investment objective is to seek income and, secondarily, capital growth. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in a professionally selected mix of other mutual funds (“Underlying Portfolios”) that is tailored for investors planning to retire in (or otherwise begin using the invested funds on), or close to, 2015. Depending on its risk profile and proximity to the transition year, each Fund employs a different combination of investments among different Underlying Portfolios in order to emphasize, as appropriate, growth, income and/or preservation of capital. The Fund currently expects (as of the date of this Prospectus) to invest 40-60% of its net assets in Underlying Portfolios that invest primarily in equity securities and 40-60% of its net assets in Underlying Portfolios that invest primarily in fixed income securities. Over time, the Fund's asset allocation strategy will become more conservative, with greater emphasis on investments that provide for income and preservation of capital, and less on those offering the potential for growth. MCM uses asset allocation strategies to allocate assets among the Underlying Portfolios. The Fund will automatically rebalance its holdings of the Underlying Portfolios on a monthly basis to maintain the appropriate asset allocation.

The Fund currently expects (as of the date of this Prospectus) to invest 60-80% of its net assets in Underlying Portfolios that invest primarily in equity securities and 20-40% of its net assets in Underlying Portfolios that invest primarily in fixed income securities. Over time, the Fund's asset allocation strategy will become more conservative, with greater emphasis on investments that provide for income and preservation of capital, and less on those offering the potential for growth. MCM uses asset allocation strategies to allocate assets among the Underlying Portfolios. The Fund will automatically rebalance its holdings of the Underlying Portfolios on a monthly basis to maintain the appropriate asset allocation.

PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (advised by Pacific Investment Management Company, LLC)

PIMCO VIT High Yield Portfolio (Administrative Shares) seeks maximum total return, consistent with preservation of capital and prudent investment management. The Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of high yield securities (“junk bonds”), which may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts, or swap agreements, rated below investment grade but rated at least Caa by Moody’s, or equivalently rated by S&P or Fitch, or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality, subject to a maximum of 5% of its total assets in securities rated Caa by Moody’s, or equivalently rated by S&P or Fitch, or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. The remainder of the Portfolio’s assets may be invested in investment grade Fixed Income Instruments. The average portfolio duration of this Portfolio normally varies within two years (plus or minus) of the duration of the Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield BB-B Rated Constrained Index, which as of March 31, 2010 was 4.40 years. The Portfolio may invest up to 15% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries. The Portfolio may invest up to 20% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies and may invest beyond this limit in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Portfolio will normally limit its foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 20% of its total assets.

PIMCO VIT Low Duration Portfolio (Administrative Shares) seeks maximum total return, consistent with preservation of capital and prudent investment management. The Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 65% of its total assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments of varying maturities, which may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts, or swap agreements. The average portfolio duration of this Portfolio normally varies from one to three years based on PIMCO’s forecast for interest rates. The Portfolio invests primarily in investment grade debt securities, but may invest up to 10% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”) rated B or higher by Moody’s, or equivalently rated by S&P or Fitch, or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. The Portfolio may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies, and may invest beyond this limit in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Portfolio will normally limit its foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 20% of its total assets. The Portfolio may invest up to 10% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries.

PIMCO VIT Real Return Portfolio (Administrative Shares) seeks maximum real return, consistent with preservation of real capital and prudent investment management. The Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its net assets in inflation-indexed bonds of varying maturities issued by the U.S. and non-U.S. governments, their agencies or instrumentalities and corporations, which may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities that are structured to provide protection against inflation. The value of the bond’s principal or the interest income paid on the bond is adjusted to track changes in an official inflation measure. The U.S. Treasury uses the Consumer Price Index for Urban Consumers as the inflation measure. Inflation-indexed bonds issued by a foreign government are generally adjusted to reflect a comparable inflation index, calculated by that government. “Real return” equals total return less the estimated cost of inflation, which is typically measured by the change in an official inflation measure. Effective duration takes into account that for certain bonds expected cash flows will fluctuate as interest rates change and is defined in nominal yield terms, which is market convention for most bond investors and managers. Durations for real return bonds, which are based on real yields, are converted to nominal durations through a conversion factor, typically between 20% and 90% of the respective real duration.

All security holdings will be measured in effective (nominal) duration terms. Similarly, the effective duration of the Barclays Capital U.S. TIPS Index (formerly named the Lehman Brothers U.S. TIPS Index) will be calculated using the same conversion factors. The effective duration of this Portfolio normally varies within three years (plus or minus) of the effective duration of the Barclays Capital U.S. TIPS Index, which as of March 31, 2010 was 6.34 years.

The Portfolio invests primarily in investment grade securities, but may invest up to 10% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”) rated B or higher by Moody’s, or equivalently rated by S&P or Fitch, or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. The Portfolio may invest up to 10% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries. The Portfolio also may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies, and may invest beyond this limit in U.S. dollar denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Portfolio will normally limit its foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 20% of its total assets. The Portfolio is non-diversified, which means that it may invest its assets in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund.

PIMCO VIT Total Return Portfolio (Administrative Shares) seeks maximum total return, consistent with preservation of capital and prudent investment management. The Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 65% of its total assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments of varying maturities, which may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts, or swap agreements. The average portfolio duration of this Portfolio normally varies within two years (plus or minus) of the duration of the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Index (formerly named the Lehman Brothers U.S. Aggregate Index), which as of March 31, 2010 was 4.68 years.

The Portfolio invests primarily in investment grade debt securities, but may invest up to 10% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”) rated B or higher by Moody’s, or equivalently rated by S&P or Fitch or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. The Portfolio may invest up to 15% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries. The Portfolio may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies, and may invest beyond this limit in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers.

You should contact your representative for further information on the availability of the Divisions.

Each Fund is subject to certain investment restrictions and policies that may not be changed without the approval of a majority of the shareholders of the Fund. See the Fund prospectuses for further information.

We automatically reinvest all dividends and capital gain distributions from the Funds in shares of the distributing Fund at their net asset value. The income and realized and unrealized gains or losses on the assets of each Division are separate and are credited to, or charged against, the particular Division without regard to income, gains or losses from any other Division or from any other part of our business. We will use amounts you allocate to a Division to purchase shares in the corresponding Fund and will redeem shares in the Funds to meet Policy obligations or make adjustments in reserves. The Funds are required to redeem their shares at net asset value and to make payment within seven days.

The Funds may also be available to separate accounts offering variable annuity, variable life products and qualified plans of other affiliated and unaffiliated insurance companies, as well as our other separate accounts. Although we do not anticipate any disadvantages to this, there is a possibility that a material conflict may arise between the interests of the Series Account and one or more of the other separate accounts participating in the Funds. A conflict may occur due to a change in law affecting the operations of variable life and variable annuity separate accounts, differences in the voting instructions of Owners and those of other companies, or some other reason. In the event of conflict, we will take any steps necessary to protect Owners, including withdrawal of the Series Account from participation in the Funds that are involved in the conflict or substitution of shares of other Funds.

Voting. We are the legal owner of all shares of the Funds held in the Divisions of the Series Account. In general, you do not have a direct right to vote the Fund shares held in the Divisions of the Series Account. However, under current law, you are entitled to give us instructions on how to vote the shares held in the Divisions. At regular and special shareholder meetings, we will vote the shares held in the Divisions in accordance with those instructions received from Owners who have an interest in the respective Divisions.

We will vote shares held in each Division for which no timely instructions from Owners are received, together with shares not attributable to a Policy, in the same proportion as those shares in that Division for which instructions are received.

The number of shares in each Division for which instructions may be given by an Owner is determined by dividing the portion of the Account Value derived from participation in that Division, if any, by the value of one share of the corresponding Fund. We will determine the number as of the record date chosen by the Fund. Fractional votes are counted. Voting instructions will be solicited in writing at least 14 days prior to the shareholders' meeting.

We may, if required by state insurance regulators, disregard voting instructions if those instructions would require shares to be voted so as to cause a change in the sub-classification or investment policies of one or more of the Funds, or to approve or disapprove an investment management contract. In addition, we may disregard voting instructions that would require changes in the investment policies or investment adviser, provided that we reasonably disapprove of those changes in accordance with applicable federal regulations. If we disregard voting instructions, we will advise you of that action and our reasons for it in our next communication to Owners.

This description reflects our current view of applicable federal securities law. Should the applicable federal securities laws change so as to permit us to vote shares held in the Series Account in our own right, we may elect to do so.

Fixed Account

The Fixed Account is part of our General Account. We assume the risk of investment gain or loss on this amount. All assets in the General Account are subject to our general liabilities from business operations. The Fixed Account does not participate in the investment performance of the Sub-Accounts.

The Fixed Account is not registered with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933. Neither the Fixed Account nor the General Account have been registered as an investment company under the 1940 Act. As a result, neither the Fixed Account nor the General Account are generally subject to regulation under either Act. However, certain disclosures may be subject to generally applicable provisions of the federal securities laws regarding the accuracy of statements made in registration statements.

The Fixed Account offers a guarantee of principal, after deductions for fees and expenses. We also guarantee that you will earn interest at a rate of at least 3% per year on amounts in the Fixed Account. We do not rely on predetermined formulas to set Fixed Account interest rates. We will review the interest rate at least once a year, but at the Company’s discretion we may reset the interest rate monthly.

The Fixed Account may not be available in all states.

Employer-Financed Insurance Purchase Arrangements--Tax and Other Legal Issues

In addition to corporations and other employers, the Policy is also available for purchase by individuals whose employers will pay some or all of the Premiums due under the Policy pursuant to an employer-financed insurance purchase arrangement. In such cases, references in this prospectus to the “Owner” of the Policy will refer to the individual and, depending on the context, references to the “payment of premiums” will refer to payments to Great-West under the Policy by the employer and/or by the employee.

Employers and employees contemplating the purchase of a Policy as a part of an employer-financed insurance purchase arrangement should consult qualified legal and tax counsel with regard to the issues presented by such a transaction. For this purpose, an employer-financed insurance purchase arrangement is a plan or arrangement which contemplates that an employer will pay one or more Premiums for the purchase of a Policy that will be owned, subject to certain restrictions, by an employee or by a person or entity designated by the employee.

The general considerations applicable to such a purchase include the following:

1.	Payments by the employer under an employer-financed insurance purchase arrangement will only be deductible for income tax purposes when the payments are taxable to the employee with respect to whom they are made.

2.	Imposition of certain types of restrictions, specifically a substantial risk of forfeiture, on the purchased Policy may defer both the deductibility of the payments to the employer and their taxability to the employee.

3.	The payment of some or all of the Premiums by the employer may create an ERISA welfare benefit plan which is subject to the reporting, disclosure, fiduciary and enforcement provisions of ERISA.

4.	The payment of some or all of the Premiums by the employer will not prevent the Owner from being treated as the owner of the Policy for federal income tax purposes.

5.	Under some circumstances, the failure of the employer to make one or more of the planned Premiums under the Policy may cause a lapse of the Policy.

An employee considering whether to participate in an employer-financed insurance purchase arrangement should consider whether the financial and tax benefits of the ownership of the Policy outweigh the costs, such as sales loads and cost of insurance charges that will be incurred as a result of the purchase and ownership of the Policy.

7.	An employee considering whether to participate in an employer-financed insurance purchase arrangement should consider whether the designation of another person or entity as the owner of the Policy will have adverse consequences under applicable gift, estate, or inheritance tax laws.

8.	An employee considering whether to participate in an employer-financed insurance purchase arrangement should consider whether the financial performance of the Policy will support any planned withdrawals or borrowings under the Policy.

In an employer-financed insurance purchase arrangement, the procedures described below on page xx which are designed to prevent or minimize market timing and excessive trading by Owners may, in certain circumstances, require us to perform standardized trade monitoring; in other circumstances such monitoring will be performed by the Fund. Certain Funds require us to provide reports of the Owner’s trading activity, if prohibited trading, as defined by the Fund, is suspected. The determination of whether there is prohibited trading based on the Funds’ definition of prohibited trading may be made by us or by the Fund. The Fund determines the restrictions imposed, which could be one of the four restrictions described on page xx or restricting the Owner from making Transfers into the identified Fund for the period of time specified by the Fund.

Charges and Deductions

Expense Charge Applied to Premium. We will deduct a maximum charge of 10% from each Premium payment, which is broken down as follows. A maximum of 6.5% will be deducted as sales load to compensate us in part for sales and promotional expenses in connection with selling the Policies, such as commissions, the cost of preparing sales literature, other promotional activities and other direct and indirect expenses. A maximum of 3.5% of Premium will be used to cover Premium taxes and certain federal income tax obligations resulting from the receipt of Premiums. All states and some cities and municipalities impose taxes on Premiums paid for life insurance, which generally range from 2% to 4% of Premium but may exceed 4% in some states. The amount of your state's Premium tax may be higher or lower than the amount attributable to Premium taxes that we deduct from your Premium payments.

The current expense charge applied to Premium for sales load is 2.5% of Premium up to target and 1.0% of Premium in excess of target for Policy Years 1 through 10. Your target Premium will depend on the initial Total Face Amount of your Policy, your Issue Age, your sex (except in unisex states), and rating class (if any). Thereafter, there is no charge for sales load. The current expense charge applied to Premium to cover our Premium taxes and the federal tax obligation described above is 3.5% in all Policy Years.

Where permitted by applicable state insurance law and for corporate owned policies only, if your Policy is surrendered for the Surrender Benefit (Account Value less any outstanding Policy loans and less accrued loan interest) within the first six Policy Years, we will return a percentage of the expense charge. The return of expense charge will be a percentage of your Account Value on the date the Request for surrender was received by us at our Corporate Headquarters. This amount will be in addition to the Surrender Benefit.

The return of expense charge is based on the following:

Policy Year	Percentage of Account Value Returned
Year 1	7%
Year 2	6%
Year 3	5%
Year 4	4%
Year 5	3%
Year 6	2%
Year 7	1%
Year 8+	0%

As described under the heading "Term Life Insurance Rider" on page xx, we may offer a term life insurance rider that may have the effect of reducing the sales load you pay on purchasing an equivalent amount of insurance. We offer this rider in circumstances that result in the savings of sales and distribution expenses and administrative costs. To qualify, a corporation, employer, or other purchaser must satisfy certain criteria such as, for example, the number of Policies it expects to purchase and the expected Total Face Amount under all such Policies. Generally, the sales contacts and effort and administrative costs per Policy depend on factors such as the number of Policies purchased by a single Owner, the purpose for which the Policies are purchased, and the characteristics of the proposed Insureds. The amount of reduction and the criteria for qualification are related to the sales effort and administrative costs resulting from sales to a qualifying Owner. Great-West from time to time may modify on a uniform basis both the amounts of reductions and the criteria for qualification. Reductions in these charges will not be unfairly discriminatory against any person, including the affected Owners funded by the Series Account.

Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. This charge is for the mortality and expense risks we assume with respect to the Policy. It is based on an annual rate that we apply against each Division of the Series Account on a daily basis. We convert the mortality and expense risk charge into a daily rate by dividing the annual rate by 365. The mortality and expense risk charge will be determined by us from time to time based on our expectations of future interest, mortality experience, persistency, expenses and taxes, but will not exceed 0.90% annually. Currently, the charge is 0.50% for Policy Years 1 through 20 and 0.10% thereafter.

The mortality risk we assume is that the group of lives insured under the Policies may, on average, live for shorter periods of time than we estimated. The expense risk we assume is that the costs of issuing and administering Policies may be more than we estimated.

Monthly Deduction. We make a monthly deduction from your Account Value on the Policy Date and the first day of each Policy Month. This monthly deduction will be charged proportionally to the amounts in the Divisions.

The monthly deduction equals the sum of (1), (2), (3) and (4) where:

(1)	is the cost of insurance charge (the monthly risk charge) equal to the current monthly risk rate (described below) multiplied by the net amount at risk divided by 1,000;

(2)	is the service charge;

(3)	is the monthly cost of any additional benefits provided by riders which are a part of your Policy; and

(4)	is any extra risk charge if the Insured is in a rated class as specified in your Policy.

The net amount at risk equals:

·	the death benefit divided by 1.00327374; less

·	your Account Value on the first day of a Policy Month prior to assessing the monthly deduction.

If there are increases in the Total Face Amount other than increases caused by changes in the death benefit option, the monthly deduction described above is determined separately for the initial Total Face Amount and each increase in the Total Face Amount. In calculating the net amount at risk, your Account Value will first be allocated to the most recent increase in the death benefit and then to each increase in the Total Face Amount in the reverse order in which the increases were made.

Monthly Risk Rates. The monthly risk rate is used to determine the cost of insurance charge (monthly risk charge) for providing insurance coverage under the Policy. The monthly risk rate is applied to the amount at risk. The monthly risk rates (except for any such rate applicable to an increase in the Total Face Amount) are based on the length of time your Policy has been in force and the Insured's sex (in the case of non-unisex Policies) and Issue Age. If the Insured is in a rated class as specified in your Policy, we will deduct an extra risk charge that reflects that class rating. The monthly risk rates applicable to each increase in the Total Face Amount are based on the length of time the increase has been in force and the Insured's sex (in the case of non-unisex Policies), Issue Age, and class rating, if any. The monthly risk rates will be determined by us from time to time based on our expectations of future experience with respect to mortality, persistency, interest rates, expenses and taxes, but will not exceed the guaranteed maximum monthly risk rates based on the 2001 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary, Age Nearest Birthday, Male/Female, Smoker/Non-Smoker Ultimate Mortality Table ("2001 CSO"). Currently, the guaranteed minimum monthly risk charge is $0.02 per $1000 and the guaranteed maximum is $83.33 per $1000. If your Policy is issued in Montana, unisex rates are charged and these rates will never exceed the male Smoker Ultimate Mortality Table.

The guaranteed maximum monthly risk rates reflect any class rating applicable to the Policy. We have filed a detailed statement of our methods for computing Account Values with the insurance department in each jurisdiction where the Policy was delivered. These values are equal to or exceed the minimum required by law.

The monthly risk rate is greater on policies that require less underwriting to be performed regardless of the health of the individual. Monthly risk rate charges will be greatest on guaranteed issue policies, followed by simplified issue policies, then fully underwritten policies.

Service Charge. We will deduct a maximum of $15 from your Account Value on the first day of each Policy Month to cover our administrative costs, such as salaries, postage, telephone, office equipment and periodic reports. This charge may be increased or decreased by us from time to time based on our expectations of future expenses, but will never exceed $15 per Policy Month. The service charge will be deducted proportionally from the Divisions. The current service charge is $10 per Policy Month for Policy Years 1 through 3 and $7.50 per Policy Month thereafter.

Transfer Fee. A maximum administrative charge of $10 per Transfer of Account Value from one Division to other Divisions will be deducted from your Account Value for all Transfers in excess of 12 made in the same Policy Year. The allocation of your Initial Premium from the Maxim Money Market Division to your selected Divisions will not count toward the 12 free Transfers. Similarly, Transfers made under dollar cost averaging and periodic rebalancing under the rebalancer option are not subject to the fee and do not count as Transfers for this purpose (except a one-time rebalancing under the rebalancer option will count as one Transfer). All Transfers Requested on the same Business Day will be aggregated and counted as one Transfer. The current charge is $10 per Transfer.

Partial Withdrawal Fee. A maximum administrative fee of $25 will be deducted from your Account Value for all partial withdrawals after the first made in the same Policy Year. The partial withdrawal fee will be deducted proportionally from all Divisions.

Surrender Charges. Your Policy has no surrender charges.

Change of Death Benefit Option Fee. A maximum administrative fee of $100 will be deducted from your Account Value each time you change your death benefit option. The change of death benefit fee will be deducted proportionally from all Divisions.

Fund Expenses. You indirectly bear the charges and expenses of the Funds whose shares are held by the Divisions to which you allocate your Account Value. The Series Account purchases shares of the Funds at net asset value. Each Fund's net asset value reflects investment advisory fees and administrative expenses already deducted from the Fund's assets. For more information concerning the investment advisory fees and other charges against the Funds, see the Fund prospectuses and the statements of additional information for the Funds, which are available upon Request.

We may receive compensation from the investment advisers or administrators of the Funds. Such compensation will be consistent with the services we provide or the cost savings resulting from the arrangement and, therefore, may differ between Funds. See "Payments We Receive" on page xx.

General Description of Policy

Unless otherwise indicated, the description of the Policy in this prospectus assumes that the Policy is in force, there is no Policy Debt and current federal tax laws apply. The Policy described in this prospectus is offered to corporations and other employers to provide life insurance coverage in connection with, among other things, deferred compensation plans and employer-financed insurance purchase arrangements. We issue Policies on the lives of prospective Insureds who meet our underwriting standards.

Policy Rights

Owner. While the Insured is alive, unless you have assigned any of these rights, you may:

·	transfer ownership to a new Owner;

·	name a contingent owner who will automatically become the Owner of the Policy if you die before the Insured;

·	change or revoke a contingent owner;

·	change or revoke a Beneficiary (unless a previous Beneficiary designation was irrevocable);

·	exercise all other rights in the Policy;

·	increase or decrease the Total Face Amount, subject to the other provisions of the Policy; and

·	change the death benefit option, subject to the other provisions of the Policy.

When you transfer your rights to a new Owner, you automatically revoke any prior contingent owner designation. When you want to change or revoke a prior Beneficiary designation, you have to specify that action. You do not affect a prior Beneficiary when you merely transfer ownership, or change or revoke a contingent owner designation.

You do not need the consent of a Beneficiary or a contingent owner in order to exercise any of your rights. However, you must give us written notice satisfactory to us of the Requested action. Your Request will then, except as otherwise specified herein, be effective as of the date you signed the form, subject to any action taken before it was received by us.

Beneficiary. The Beneficiary has no rights in the Policy until the death of the Insured, except an irrevocable Beneficiary cannot be changed without the consent of that Beneficiary. If a Beneficiary is alive at that time, the Beneficiary will be entitled to payment of the Death Benefit Proceeds as they become due.

Policy Limitations

Allocation of Net Premiums. Except as otherwise described herein, your net Premium will be allocated in accordance with the allocation percentages you select. Percentages must total 100% and can be up to two decimal places.

We will credit Premium payments received prior to the end of the free look period as described in the “Free Look Period” section of this prospectus on page xx.

You may change your allocation percentages at any time by Request.

Transfers Among Divisions. Subject to our rules as they may exist from time to time, you may at any time after the Free-Look Period Transfer to another Division all or a portion of the Account Value allocated to a Division. We will make Transfers pursuant to a Request.

Transfers may be Requested by indicating the Transfer of either a specified dollar amount or a specified percentage of the Division's value from which the Transfer will be made.

Transfer privileges are subject to our consent. We reserve the right to impose limitations on Transfers, including, but not limited to: (1) the minimum amount that may be Transferred; and (2) the minimum amount that may remain in a Division following a Transfer from that Division.

A fee of $10 per Transfer will apply for all Transfers in excess of 12 made in a Policy Year. We may increase or decrease the Transfer charge; however, it is guaranteed to never exceed $10 per Transfer. All Transfers Requested on the same Business Day will count as only one Transfer toward the 12 free Transfers. The Transfer of your Initial Premium from the Maxim Money Market Portfolio Division to your selected Divisions does not count toward the 12 free Transfers. Likewise, any Transfers under dollar cost averaging or periodic rebalancing of your Account Value under the rebalancer option do not count toward the 12 free Transfers (a one time rebalancing, however, will be counted as one Transfer).

Fixed Account Transfers. Transfers into the Fixed Account are limited to once every 60 days. Transfers from the Fixed Account may only be made once per year. The maximum to be transferred out will be the greater of 25% of your balance in the Fixed Account or the amount of the transfer in the previous 365 day period.

Market Timing & Excessive Trading. The Policies are intended for long-term investment and not for the purpose of market timing or excessive trading activity. Market timing activity may dilute the interests of Owners in the Funds. Market timing generally involves frequent or unusually large transfers that are intended to take advantage of short-term fluctuations in the value of a Fund's portfolio securities and the reflection of that change in the Fund's share price. In addition, frequent or unusually large transfers may harm performance by increasing Fund expenses and disrupting Fund management strategies. For example, excessive trading may result in forced liquidations of portfolio securities or cause the Fund to keep a relatively higher cash position, resulting in increased brokerage costs and lost investment opportunities.

We maintain procedures designed to discourage market timing and excessive trading by Owners. As part of those procedures, we will rely on the Funds to monitor for such activity. If a Fund believes such activity has occurred, we will scrutinize the Owner’s activity and request a determination from the Fund as to whether such activity constitutes market timing or excessive trading. If the Fund determines that the activity constitutes market timing or excessive trading, we will contact the Owner in writing to request that market timing and/or excessive trading stop immediately. We will then provide a subsequent report of the Owner's trading activity to the Fund. If the Fund determines that the Owner has not ceased improper trading, and upon request of the Fund, we will inform the Owner in writing that a trading restriction is being implemented. The four possible trading restrictions are:

Restrict the Owner to inquiry-only access for the web and voice response unit so that the Owner will only be permitted to make Transfer Requests by written Request mailed to us through U.S. mail ("U.S. Mail Restriction"); the Owner will not be permitted to make Transfer Requests via overnight mail, fax, the web, or the call center. Once the U.S. Mail Restriction has been in place for 180 days, the restricted Owner may Request that we lift the U.S. Mail Restriction by signing, dating and returning a form to us whereby the Owner acknowledges the potentially harmful effects of market timing and/or excessive trading on Funds and other investors, represents that no further market timing or excessive trading will occur, and acknowledges that we may implement further restrictions, if necessary, to stop improper trading by the Owner;

·	Close the applicable Fund to all new monies, including contributions and Transfers in;

·	Restrict all Owners to one purchase in the applicable Fund per 90 day period; or

·	Remove the Fund as an investment option and convert all allocations in that Fund to a different investment option.

The discretionary nature of our procedures creates a risk that we may treat some Owners differently than others.

Our market timing and excessive trading procedures are such that we do not impose trading restrictions unless or until a Fund first detects and notifies us of potential market timing or excessive trading activity. Accordingly, we cannot prevent all market timing or excessive trading transfer activity before it occurs, as it may not be possible to identify it unless and until a trading pattern is established. To the extent the Funds do not detect and notify us of market timing and/or excessive trading or the trading restrictions we impose fail to curtail it, it is possible that a market timer or excessive trader may be able to make market timing and/or excessive trading transactions with the result that the management of the Funds may be disrupted and the Owners may suffer detrimental effects such as increased costs, reduced performance, and dilution of their interests in the affected Funds.

We endeavor to ensure that our procedures are uniformly and consistently applied to all Owners, and we do not exempt any Owners from these procedures. In addition, we do not enter into agreements with Owners whereby we permit market timing or excessive trading. Subject to applicable state law and the terms of each Policy, we reserve the right without prior notice to modify, restrict, suspend or eliminate the Transfer privileges (including telephone Transfers) at any time, to require that all Transfer Requests be made by you and not by your designee, and to require that each Transfer Request be made by a separate communication to us. We also reserve the right to require that each Transfer Request be submitted in writing and be signed by you.

The Funds may have adopted their own policies and procedures with respect to frequent purchases and redemptions of their respective shares. The prospectuses for the Funds should describe any such policies and procedures. The frequent trading policies and procedures of a Fund may be different, and more or less restrictive, than the frequent trading policies and procedures of other Funds and the policies and procedures we have adopted to discourage market timing and excessive trading. For example, a Fund may impose a redemption fee. Owners should also be aware that we may not have the contractual obligation or the operational capacity to apply the frequent trading policies and procedures of the respective Funds that would be affected by the Transfers.

We may revise our market timing and excessive trading policy and related procedures at our sole discretion, at any time and without prior notice, as we deem necessary or appropriate to comply with state or federal regulatory requirements or to impose additional or alternative restrictions on Owners engaging in market timing or excessive trading. In addition, our orders to purchase shares of the Funds are generally subject to acceptance by the Fund, and in some cases a Fund may reject or reverse our purchase order. Therefore, we reserve the right to reject any Owner's Transfer Request if our order to purchase shares of the Fund is not accepted by, or is reversed by, an applicable Fund.

You should note that other insurance companies and retirement plans may invest in the Funds and that those companies or plans may or may not have their own policies and procedures on frequent transfers. You should also know that the purchase and redemption orders received by the Funds generally are “omnibus” orders from intermediaries such as retirement plans or separate accounts funding variable insurance contracts. Omnibus orders reflect the aggregation and netting of multiple orders from individual retirement plan participants and/or individual owners of variable insurance contracts. The nature of such orders may limit the Funds' ability to apply their respective frequent trading policies and procedures. As a result, there is a risk that the Funds may not be able to detect potential market timing and/or excessive trading activities in the omnibus orders they receive. We cannot guarantee that the Funds will not be harmed by transfer activity relating to the retirement plans and/or other insurance companies that invest in the Funds. If the policies and procedures of other insurance companies or retirement plans fail to successfully discourage frequent transfer activity, it may affect the value of your investments in the Funds. In addition, if a Fund believes that an omnibus order we submit may reflect one or more Transfer Requests from an Owner engaged in frequent transfer activity, the Fund may reject the entire omnibus order and thereby interfere with our ability to satisfy your Request even if you have not made frequent transfers. For Transfers into more than one investment option, we may reject or reverse the entire Transfer Request if any part of it is not accepted by or is reversed by a Fund.

Exchange of Policy. You may exchange your Policy for a new policy issued by Great-West that does not provide for variable benefits. The new policy will have the same Policy Date, Issue Age, and Insured as your Policy on the date of the exchange. The exchange must be made within 24 Policy Months after the Issue Date of your Policy and all Policy Debt must be repaid.

The cash value of your current Policy will be applied to the new policy as the Initial Premium.

Age Requirements. An Insured's Issue Age must be between 20 and 85 for Policies issued on a fully underwritten basis and between 20 and 70 for Policies issued on a guaranteed underwriting or a simplified underwriting basis.

Policy or Registrant Changes

Addition, Deletion or Substitution of Investment Options. Shares of any or all of the Funds may not always be available for purchase by the Divisions of the Series Account, or we may decide that further investment in any such shares is no longer appropriate. In either event, shares of other registered open-end investment companies or unit investment trusts may be substituted both for Fund shares already purchased by the Series Account and/or as the security to be purchased in the future, provided that these substitutions have been approved by the SEC, to the extent necessary. We also may close a Division to future Premium allocations and Transfers of Account Value. A Division closing may affect dollar cost averaging and the rebalancer option. We reserve the right to operate the Series Account in any form permitted by law, to take any action necessary to comply with applicable law or obtain and continue any exemption from applicable laws, to assess a charge for taxes attributable to the operation of the Series Account or for other taxes, as described in "Charges and Deductions" beginning on page xx of this prospectus, and to change the way in which we assess other charges, as long as the total other charges do not exceed the maximum guaranteed charges under the Policies. We also reserve the right to add Divisions, or to eliminate or combine existing Divisions or to Transfer assets between Divisions, or from any Division to our General Account. In the event of any substitution or other act described in this paragraph, we may make appropriate amendment to the Policy to reflect the change.

Entire Contract. Your entire contract with us consists of the Policy, including the attached copy of your application and any attached copies of supplemental applications for increases in the Total Face Amount, any endorsements and any riders. Any illustrations prepared in connection with the Policy do not form a part of our contract with you and are intended solely to provide information about how values under the Policy, such as Cash Surrender Value, death benefit and Account Value, will change with the investment experience of the Divisions, and such information is based solely upon data available at the time such illustrations are prepared.

Alteration. Sales representatives do not have any authority to either alter or modify your Policy or to waive any of its provisions. The only persons with this authority are our president, secretary, or one of our vice presidents.

Modification. Upon notice to you, we may modify the Policy if such a modification –

·	is necessary to make the Policy or the Series Account comply with any law or regulation issued by a governmental agency to which we are, or the Series Account is, subject;

·	is necessary to assure continued qualification of the Policy under the Code or other federal or state laws as a life insurance policy;

·	is necessary to reflect a change in the operation of the Series Account or the Divisions; or

·	adds, deletes or otherwise changes Division options.

We also reserve the right to modify certain provisions of the Policy as stated in those provisions. In the event of any such modification, we may make appropriate amendment to the Policy to reflect such modification.

Assignments. During the lifetime of the Insured, you may assign all or some of your rights under the Policy. All assignments must be filed at our Corporate Headquarters and must be in written form satisfactory to us. The assignment will then be effective as of the date you signed the form, subject to any action taken before we received it. We are not responsible for the validity or legal effect of any assignment.

Notice and Elections. To be effective, all notices and elections under the Policy must be in writing, signed by you, and received by us at our Corporate Headquarters. Certain exceptions may apply. Unless otherwise provided in the Policy, all notices, Requests and elections will be effective when received at our Corporate Headquarters complete with all necessary information.

Account Value

Your Account Value is the sum of your interests in each Division you have chosen, plus your interests in the Fixed Account, plus the amount in your Loan Account. The Account Value varies depending upon the Premiums paid, expense charges applied to Premium, mortality and expense risk charge, service charges, monthly risk charges, partial withdrawals, fees, Policy loans and the net investment factor (described below) for the Divisions to which your Account Value is allocated and the interest credited to the Fixed Account.

We measure the amounts in the Divisions in terms of Units and Unit Values. On any given date, your interest in a Division is equal to the Unit Value multiplied by the number of Units credited to you in that Division. Amounts allocated to a Division will be used to purchase Units of that Division. Units are redeemed when you make partial withdrawals, undertake Policy loans or Transfer amounts from a Division, and for the payment of service charges, monthly risk charges and other fees. The number of Units of each Division purchased or redeemed is determined by dividing the dollar amount of the transaction by the Unit Value for the Division. The Unit Value for each Division was established at $10.00 for the first Valuation Date of the Division. The Unit Value for any subsequent Valuation Date is equal to the Unit Value for the preceding Valuation Date multiplied by the net investment factor (determined as provided below). The Unit Value of a Division for any Valuation Date is determined as of the close of the Valuation Period ending on that Valuation Date.

Transactions are processed on the date we receive a Premium at our Corporate Headquarters or upon approval of a Request. If your Premium or Request is received on a date that is not a Valuation Date, or after the close of the NYSE on a Valuation Date, the transaction will be processed on the next Valuation Date.

The Account Value attributable to each Division of the Series Account on the Policy Date equals:

·	that portion of net Premium received and allocated to the Division, plus

·	that portion of net Premium received and allocated to the Fixed Account, less

·	the service charges due on the Policy Date, less

·	the monthly risk charge due on the Policy Date, less

·	the monthly risk charge for any riders due on the Policy Date.

We apply your Initial Premium on the Policy Date, which will be the Issue Date (if we have already received your Initial Premium) or the Business Day we receive a Premium equal to, or in excess of, the Initial Premium after we have approved your application.

The Account Value attributable to each Division of the Series Account on the subsequent Valuation Dates is equal to:

·	the Account Value attributable to the Division on the preceding Valuation Date multiplied by that Division's net investment factor, plus

·	that portion of net Premium received and allocated to the Division during the current Valuation Period, plus

·	that portion of the value of the Loan Account Transferred to the Division upon repayment of a Policy loan during the current Valuation Period, plus

·	any amounts Transferred by you to the Division from another Division during the current Valuation Period, less

·	any amounts Transferred by you from the Division to another Division during the current Valuation Period, less

·	that portion of any partial withdrawals deducted from the Division during the current Valuation Period, less

·	that portion of any Account Value Transferred from the Division to the Loan Account during the current Valuation Period, less

·	that portion of fees due in connection with a partial withdrawal charged to the Division, less

·	if the first day of a Policy Month occurs during the current Valuation Period, that portion of the service charge for the Policy Month just beginning charged to the Division, less

·	if the first day of a Policy Month occurs during the current Valuation Period, that portion of the monthly risk charge for the Policy Month just beginning charged to the Division, less

·	if the first day of a Policy Month occurs during the current Valuation Period, that Division's portion of the cost for any riders and any extra risk charge if the Insured is in a rated class as specified in your Policy, for the Policy Month just beginning.

Net Investment Factor. The net investment factor for each Division for any Valuation Period is determined by deducting the mortality and expense risk charge for each day in the Valuation Period from the quotient of (1) and (2) where:

(1) is the net result of:

·	the net asset value of a Fund share held in the Division determined as of the end of the current Valuation Period, plus

·	the per share amount of any dividend or other distribution declared on Fund shares held in the Division if the "ex-dividend" date occurs during the current Valuation Period, plus or minus

·	a per share credit or charge with respect to any taxes incurred by or reserved for, or paid by us if not previously reserved for, during the current Valuation Period which are determined by us to be attributable to the operation of the Division; and

(2) is the net result of:

·	the net asset value of a Fund share held in the Division determined as of the end of the preceding Valuation Period, plus or minus

·	a per share credit or charge with respect to any taxes incurred by or reserved for, or paid by us if not previously reserved for, during the preceding Valuation Period which are determined by us to be attributable to the operation of the Division.

The Fixed Account Value is:

·	Premiums allocated to the Fixed Account; plus

·	Sub-Account Value transferred to the Fixed Account; plus

·	Interest credited to the Fixed Account; minus

·	Partial withdrawals from the Fixed Account including any applicable partial withdrawal charges; minus

·	Loans from the Fixed Account; minus

·	Transfers from the Fixed Account, including any applicable transfer charges

During any Policy Month the Fixed Account Value will be calculated on a consistent basis. For purposes of crediting interest, policy value deducted, transferred or withdrawn from the Fixed Account is accounted for on a first in first out basis.

The mortality and expense risk charge for the Valuation Period is the annual mortality and expense risk charge divided by 365 multiplied by the number of days in the Valuation Period.

The net investment factor may be greater or less than or equal to one.

Splitting Units. We reserve the right to split or combine the value of Units. In effecting any such change, strict equity will be preserved and no such change will have a material effect on the benefits or other provisions of your Policy.

Other Provisions and Benefits

Misstatement of Age or Sex (Non-Unisex Policy). If the age or (in the case of a non-unisex Policy) sex of the Insured is stated incorrectly in your Policy application or rider application, we will adjust the amount payable appropriately as described in the Policy.

If we determine that the Insured was not eligible for coverage under the Policy after we discover a misstatement of the Insured's age, our liability will be limited to a return of Premiums paid, less any partial withdrawals, any Policy Debt, and the cost for riders.

Suicide. If the Insured, whether sane or insane, commits suicide within two years after your Policy's Issue Date (one year if your Policy is issued in Colorado or North Dakota), we will not pay any part of the Death Benefit Proceeds. We will pay the Beneficiary the Premiums paid, less the amount of any Policy Debt, any partial withdrawals and the cost for riders.

If the Insured, whether sane or insane, commits suicide within two years after the effective date of an increase in the Total Face Amount (one year if your Policy is issued in Colorado or North Dakota), then our liability as to that increase will be the cost of insurance for that increase and that portion of the Account Value attributable to that increase. The Total Face Amount of the Policy will be reduced to the Total Face Amount that was in effect prior to the increase.

Incontestability. All statements made in the application or in a supplemental application are representations and not warranties. We relied and will continue to rely on those statements when approving the issuance, increase in face amount, increase in death benefit over Premium paid, or change in death benefit option of the Policy. In the absence of fraud, we can use no statement in defense of a claim or to cancel the Policy for misrepresentation unless the statement was made in the application or in a supplemental application. In the absence of fraud, after the Policy has been in force during the lifetime of the Insured for a period of two years from its Issue Date, we cannot contest it except for non-payment of Premiums. However, any increase in the Total Face Amount which is effective after the Issue Date will be incontestable only after such increase has been in force during the lifetime of the Insured for two years from the effective date of coverage of such increase.

Paid-Up Life Insurance. When the Insured reaches Attained Age 121 (if your Policy is in force at that time), the entire Account Value of your Policy (less outstanding Policy Debt) will be applied as a single Premium to purchase "paid-up" insurance. Outstanding Policy Debt will be repaid at this time. This repayment may be treated as a taxable distribution to you if your Policy is not a MEC. The net single Premium for this insurance will be based on the 2001 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary, Sex Distinct, Non-Smoker Mortality Table and 4% interest. The cash value of your paid-up insurance, which initially is equal to the net single Premium, will remain in the Divisions of the Series Account in accordance with your then current allocation. While the paid-up life insurance is in effect your assets will remain in the Series Account. You may change your Division allocation instructions and you may Transfer your cash value among the Divisions. All charges under your Policy, to the extent applicable, will continue to be assessed, except we will no longer make a deduction each Policy Month for the monthly risk charge. Your death benefit will be fixed by the Code for insured age 99. As your cash value changes based on the investment experience of the Divisions, the death benefit will increase or decrease accordingly. You may surrender the paid-up insurance Policy at any time and, if surrendered within 30 days of a Policy Anniversary, its cash value will not be less than it was on that Policy Anniversary. Please see "Federal Income Tax Considerations -- Treatment When Insured Reaches Attained Age 121" on page xx.

Supplemental Benefits. The following supplemental benefit riders are available, subject to certain limitations. An additional monthly risk charge will be assessed for each rider that is in force as part of the monthly deduction from your Account Value. If a supplemental benefit rider is terminated, the monthly risk charge for such rider will end immediately. See fee tables beginning on page x.

Term Life Insurance Rider. This rider provides term life insurance on the Insured. Coverage is renewable annually until the Insured's Attained Age 121. The amount of coverage provided under this rider varies from month to month as described below. We will pay the rider's death benefit to the Beneficiary when we receive Due Proof of death of the Insured while this rider is in force.

This rider provides the same three death benefit options as your Policy. The option you choose under the rider must at all times be the same as the option you have chosen for your Policy. The rider's death benefit will be determined at the beginning of each Policy Month in accordance with one of those options. For each of the options, any outstanding Policy Debt will reduce your death benefit.

If you purchase this rider, the Total Face Amount shown on your Policy's specifications page will be equal to the minimum amount of coverage provided by this rider plus the base face amount (which is the minimum death benefit under your Policy without the rider’s death benefit). The minimum allocation of Total Face Amount between your Policy and the rider is 10% and 90% at inception, respectively. The total Death Benefit Payable under the rider and the Policy will be determined as described in "Death Benefit" below, using the Total Face Amount shown on your Policy’s specifications page.

Coverage under this rider will take effect on the latter of:

·	the Policy Date of the Policy to which this rider is attached; or

·	the date this rider is delivered and the first rider premium is paid to the Company

The monthly risk rate for this rider will be the same as that used for the Policy and the monthly risk charge for the rider will be determined by multiplying the monthly risk rate by the rider's death benefit. This charge will be calculated on the first day of each Policy Month and added to the Policy's monthly risk charge.

If you purchase this rider, the sales load and return of expense charge will be proportionately lower as a result of a reduction in commission payments. Commissions payable to sales representatives for the sale of the Policy are calculated based on the total Premium payments. As a result, this rider generally is not offered in connection with any Policy with annual Premium payments of less than $100,000, except for policies issued on a guaranteed issue basis. In our discretion, we may decline to offer this rider or refuse to consent to a proposed allocation of coverage between a Policy and term rider.

If this rider is offered, the commissions will vary depending on the allocation of your coverage between the Policy and the term rider. The same initial Death Benefit will result in the highest commission when there is no term rider, with the commission declining as the portion of the Death Benefit coverage allocated to the term rider increases. Thus, the lowest commission amount is payable, and the lowest amount of sales load deducted from your Premiums will occur, when the maximum term rider is purchased.

You may terminate this rider by Request. This rider also will terminate on the earliest of the following dates:

·	the date the Policy is surrendered or terminated;

·	the expiration of the grace period of the Policy; or

·	the death of the Insured.

Change of Insured Rider. This rider permits you to change the Insured under your Policy or any Insured that has been named by virtue of this rider. Before we change the Insured you must provide us with (1) a Request for the change signed by you and approved by us; (2) Evidence of Insurability for the new Insured; (3) evidence that there is an insurable interest between you and the new Insured; (4) evidence that the new Insured's age, at the nearest birthday, is under 70 years; and (5) evidence that the new Insured was born prior to the Policy Date. We may charge a fee for administrative expenses when you change the Insured. The minimum charge is $100 per change and the maximum charge is $400 per change. When a change of Insured takes effect, Premiums will be based on the new Insured's age, sex, mortality class and the Premium rate in effect on the Policy Date.

Report to Owner. We will maintain all records relating to the Series Account and the Divisions and the Fixed Account. We will send you a report at least once each Policy Year within 30 days after a Policy Anniversary. The report will show current Account Value, current allocation in each Division, death benefit, Premiums paid, investment experience since your last report, deductions made since the last report, and any further information that may be required by laws of the state in which your Policy was issued. It will also show the balance of any outstanding Policy loans and accrued interest on such loans. There is no charge for this report.

In addition, we will send you the financial statements of the Funds and other reports as specified in the 1940 Act. We also will mail you confirmation notices or other appropriate notices of Policy transactions quarterly or more frequently within the time periods specified by law. Please give us prompt written notice of any address change. Please read your statements and confirmations carefully and verify their accuracy and contact us promptly with any questions.

Dollar Cost Averaging. By Request, you may elect dollar cost averaging in order to purchase Units of the Divisions over a period of time. There is no charge for this service.

Dollar cost averaging permits you to automatically Transfer a predetermined dollar amount, subject to our minimum, at regular intervals from any one or more designated Divisions to one or more of the remaining, then available Divisions. The Unit Value will be determined on the dates of the Transfers. You must specify the percentage to be Transferred into each designated Division. Transfers may be set up on any one of the following frequency periods: monthly, quarterly, semiannually, or annually. The Transfer will be initiated one frequency period following the date of your Request. We will provide a list of Divisions eligible for dollar cost averaging that may be modified from time to time. Amounts Transferred through dollar cost averaging are not counted against the 12 free Transfers allowed in a Policy Year. You may not participate in dollar cost averaging and the rebalancer option (described below) at the same time. Participation in dollar cost averaging does not assure a greater profit, or any profit, nor will it prevent or necessarily alleviate losses in a declining market. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or terminate dollar cost averaging at any time.

Rebalancer Option. By Request, you may elect the rebalancer option in order to automatically Transfer Account Value among the Divisions on a periodic basis. There is no charge for this service. This type of transfer program automatically reallocates your Account Value so as to maintain a particular percentage allocation among Divisions chosen by you. The amount allocated to each Division will grow or decline at different rates depending on the investment experience of the Divisions. Rebalancing does not change your Premium allocation unless that option is checked on the rebalancer Request. Your Premium allocation can also be changed by written Request at the address on the first page of this prospectus.

You may Request that rebalancing occur one time only, in which case the Transfer will take place on the date of the Request. This Transfer will count as one Transfer towards the 12 free Transfers allowed in a Policy Year.

You may also choose to rebalance your Account Value on a quarterly, semiannual, or annual basis, in which case the first Transfer will be initiated one frequency period following the date of your Request. On that date, your Account Value will be automatically reallocated to the selected Divisions. Thereafter, your Account Value will be rebalanced once each frequency period. In order to participate in the rebalancer option, your entire Account Value must be included. Transfers made with these frequencies will not count against the 12 free Transfers allowed in a Policy Year.

You must specify the percentage of Account Value to be allocated to each Division and the frequency of rebalancing. You may terminate the rebalancer option at any time by Request.

You may not participate in the rebalancer option and dollar cost averaging at the same time. Participation in the rebalancer option does not assure a greater profit, or any profit, nor will it prevent or necessarily alleviate losses in a declining market. The Company reserves the right to modify, suspend, or terminate the rebalancer option at any time.

Non-Participating. The Policy does not pay dividends.

Premiums

Policy Application, Issuance and Initial Premium. To purchase a Policy, you must submit an application to our Corporate Headquarters. We will then follow our underwriting procedures designed to determine the insurability of the applicant. We may require full underwriting, which includes a medical examination and further information, before your application may be approved. We also may offer the Policy on a simplified underwriting or guaranteed issue basis. Applicants must be acceptable risks based on our applicable underwriting limits and standards. We will not issue a Policy until the underwriting process has been completed to our satisfaction. We reserve the right to reject an application for any lawful reason or to "rate" an Insured as a substandard risk, which will result in increased monthly risk rates. The monthly risk rate also may vary depending on the type of underwriting we use.

You must specify certain information in the application, including the Total Face Amount, the death benefit option and supplemental benefits, if any. The Total Face Amount generally may not be decreased below $100,000.

Upon approval of the application, we will issue to you a Policy on the life of the Insured. A specified Initial Premium must be paid before we issue the Policy. The effective date of coverage for your Policy (which we call the "Policy Date") will be the date we receive a Premium equal to or in excess of the specified Initial Premium after we have approved your application. If your Premium payment is received on the 29th, 30th or 31st of a month, the Policy will be dated the 28th of that month.

We generally do not accept Premium payments before approval of an application; however, at our discretion, we may elect to do so. While your application is in underwriting, if we accept your Premium payment before approval of your application, we will provide you with temporary insurance coverage in accordance with the terms of our temporary insurance agreement. In our discretion, we may limit the amount of Premium we accept and the amount of temporary coverage we provide. If we approve your application, we will allocate your Premium payment to the Series Account or Fixed Account on the Policy Date, as described below. Otherwise, we will promptly return your payment to you. We will not credit interest to your Premium payment for the period while your application is in underwriting.

We reserve the right to change the terms or conditions of your Policy to comply with differences in applicable state law. Variations from the information appearing in this prospectus due to individual state requirements are described in supplements that are attached to this prospectus or in endorsements to the Policy, as appropriate.

Free Look Period. During the free look period (ten days or longer where required by state law), you may cancel your Policy. If you exercise the free look privilege, you must return the Policy to our Corporate Headquarters or to the representative from whom you purchased the Policy.

Generally, net Premium will be allocated to the Divisions you selected on the application. However, under certain circumstances described below, the net Premium will first be allocated to the Maxim Money Market Division and remain there until the next Valuation Date following the end of the free look period. On that date, the Sub-Account value held in the Maxim Money Market Division will be allocated to the Division(s) selected by you. If your Premium payments are received after 4:00 PM EST/EDT, such payments will be credited on the next Valuation Date. Regardless of when the payment is credited, you will receive the utilized values from the date we received your payment.

During the free look period, you may not change your Division allocations but you may change your allocation percentages.

Policies returned during the free look period will be void from the Issue Date. In some states, we will refund your current Account Value plus the return of any expense charges deducted. In those states, this amount may be higher or lower than your Premium payments, which means you bear the investment risk during the free look period.

Certain states require that we return the greater of your Account Value (less any surrenders, withdrawals and distributions already received) or the amount of the Premiums received. In those states, we will allocate your net Premium payments to the Maxim Money Market Division. We will Transfer the Account Value in that Division to the other Divisions of the Series Account in accordance with your most recent allocation instructions on file at the end of the free look period.

Premium. All Premium payments must be made payable to "Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company" and mailed to our Corporate Headquarters. The Initial Premium will be due and payable on or before your Policy's Issue Date. The minimum Initial Premium will vary based on various factors, including the age of the Insured and the death benefits option you select, but may not be less than $100. You may pay additional Premium payments to us in the amounts and at the times you choose, subject to the limitations described below. To find out whether your Premium payment has been received, contact us at the address or telephone number shown on the first page of this prospectus.

We reserve the right to limit the number of Premium payments we accept on an annual basis. No Premium payment may be less than $100 per Policy without our consent, although we will accept a smaller Premium payment if necessary to keep your Policy in force. We reserve the right to restrict or refuse any Premium payments that exceed the Initial Premium amount shown on your Policy. We also reserve the right not to accept a Premium payment that causes the death benefit to increase by an amount that exceeds the Premium received. Evidence of insurability satisfactory to us may be required before we accept any such Premium.

We will not accept Premium payments that would, in our opinion, cause your Policy to fail to qualify as life insurance under applicable federal tax law. If a Premium payment is made in excess of these limits, we will accept only that portion of the Premium within those limits, and will refund the remainder to you.

Net Premiums. The net Premium is the amount you pay as the Premium less any expense charges applied to Premiums. See "Charges and Deductions - - Expense Charge Applied to Premium," on page xx.

Planned Periodic Premiums. While you are not required to make additional Premium payments according to a fixed schedule, you may select a planned periodic Premium schedule and corresponding billing period, subject to our limits. We will send you reminder notices for the planned periodic Premium, unless you Request to have reminder notices suspended. You are not required, however, to pay the planned periodic Premium; you may increase or decrease the planned periodic Premium subject to our limits, and you may skip a planned payment or make unscheduled payments. Depending on the investment performance of the Divisions you select, the planned periodic Premium may not be sufficient to keep your Policy in force, and you may need to change your planned payment schedule or make additional payments in order to prevent termination of your Policy.

Death Benefits

Death Benefit. If your Policy is in force at the time of the Insured's death, we will pay the Beneficiary an amount based on the death benefit option you select once we have received Due Proof of the Insured's death. The amount payable will be:

·	the amount of the selected death benefit option, less

·	the value of any Policy Debt on the date of the Insured's death, less

·	any accrued and unpaid Policy charges.

We will pay this amount to the Beneficiary in one lump sum, unless the Beneficiary and we agree on another form of settlement. We will pay interest, at a rate not less than that required by law, on the amount of Death Benefit Proceeds, if payable in one lump sum, from the date of the Insured's death to the date of payment.

In order to meet the definition of life insurance under the Code, section 7702 of the Code defines alternative testing procedures for the minimum death benefit under a Policy. See "Federal Income Tax Considerations - Tax Status of the Policy," on page xx. Your Policy must qualify under the cash value accumulation test (“CVAT”).

Under the CVAT testing procedures, there is a minimum death benefit required at all times equal to your Account Value multiplied by a pre-determined factor. The factors used to determine the minimum death benefit vary by age. The factors (expressed as percentages) used for the CVAT are set forth in your Policy.

The Policy has two death benefit options.

Option 1. The "Level Death" Option. Under this option, the death benefit is –

·	the Policy's Total Face Amount on the date of the Insured's death less any partial withdrawals; or, if greater,

·	the Account Value on the date of death multiplied by the applicable factor shown in the table set forth in your Policy.

This death benefit option should be selected if you want to minimize your cost of insurance (monthly risk charge).

Option 2. The "Coverage Plus" Option. Under this option, the death benefit is –

·	the sum of the Total Face Amount and Account Value of the Policy on the date of the Insured's death less any partial withdrawals; or, if greater,

·	the Account Value on the date of death multiplied by the applicable factor shown in the table set forth in your Policy.

This death benefit option should be selected if you want your death benefit to increase with your Account Value.

Your Account Value and death benefit fluctuate based on the performance of the investment options you select and the expenses and deductions charged to your account. See the “Account Value” and “Charges and Deductions” sections of this prospectus.

There is no minimum death benefit guarantee associated with this Policy.

Changes in Death Benefit Option. After the first Policy Year, but not more than once each Policy Year, you may change the death benefit option by Request. Any change will be effective on the first day of the Policy Month following the date we approve your Request. A maximum administrative fee of $100 will be deducted from your Account Value each time you change your death benefit option.

A change in the death benefit option will not change the amount payable upon the death of the Insured on the date of change. Any change is subject to the following conditions:

·	If the change is from option 1 to option 2, the new Total Face Amount, at the time of the change, will equal the prior Total Face Amount less the Account Value. Evidence of insurability may be required.

·	If the change is from option 2 to option 1, the new Total Face Amount, at the time of the change, will equal the prior Total Face Amount plus the Account Value.

Changes in Total Face Amount. You may increase or decrease the Total Face Amount of your Policy at any time within certain limits.

Minimum Changes. Each increase or decrease in the Total Face Amount must be at least $25,000. We reserve the right to change the minimum amount by which you may change the Total Face Amount.

Increases in Total Face Amount. To Request an increase in Total Face Amount, you must provide satisfactory evidence of the Insured's insurability. Once approved by us, an increase will become effective on the Policy Anniversary following our approval of your Request, subject to the deduction of the first Policy Month's monthly risk charge, service charge, any extra risk charge if the Insured is in a rated class and the cost of any riders.

Each increase to the Total Face Amount is considered to be a new segment to the Policy. When an increase is approved, Premium is allocated against the original Policy segment up to the seven-pay Premium limit established on the Issue Date. Any excess Premium is then allocated toward the new segment. Each segment will have a separate target Premium associated with it. The expense charge applied to Premium is higher up to target and lower for Premium in excess of the target as described in detail in the “Charges and Deductions” section of this prospectus. The expense charge formula will apply to each segment based on the target Premium for that segment. In addition, each segment will have a new incontestability period and suicide exclusion period as described in the "Other Provisions and Benefits" section of this prospectus.

Decreases in Total Face Amount. A decrease in Total Face Amount will become effective at the beginning of the next Policy Month following our approval of your Request. The Total Face Amount after the decrease must be at least $100,000.

For purposes of the incontestability provision of your Policy, any decrease in Total Face Amount will be applied in the following order:

·	first, to the most recent increase;

·	second, to the next most recent increases, in reverse chronological order; and

·	finally, to the initial Total Face Amount.

Surrenders and Withdrawals

Surrenders. You may surrender your Policy for its Cash Surrender Value at any time while the Insured is living. If you do, the insurance coverage and all other benefits under the Policy will terminate. To surrender your Policy, contact us at the address or telephone number shown on the first page of this prospectus. We will send you the paperwork necessary for you to Request the surrender of your Policy. The proceeds of a surrender will be payable within seven days of our receipt of the completed Request.

We will determine your Cash Surrender Value as of the end of the first Valuation Date after we receive your Request for surrender.

If you withdraw part of the Cash Surrender Value, your Policy's death benefit will be reduced and you may incur taxes and tax penalties.

You may borrow from us using your Account Value as collateral.

A surrender may have tax consequences, including tax penalties. See “Federal Income Tax Considerations – Tax Treatment of Policy Benefits,” beginning on page xx of this prospectus.

Partial Withdrawal. You may Request a partial withdrawal of Account Value at any time while the Policy is in force. The amount of any partial withdrawal must be at least $500 and may not exceed 90% of your Account Value less the value of the Loan Account. A partial withdrawal fee will be deducted from your Account Value for all partial withdrawals after the first made during the same Policy Year. This administrative fee is guaranteed to be no greater than $25. To Request a partial withdrawal, contact us at the address or telephone number shown on the first page of this prospectus. We will send you the paperwork necessary for you to request a withdrawal from your Policy. The proceeds of any such partial withdrawal will be payable within seven days of our receipt of the completed Request.

The Death Benefit Proceeds will be reduced by the amount of any partial withdrawals.

Your Account Value will be reduced by the amount of a partial withdrawal. The amount of a partial withdrawal will be withdrawn from the Divisions in proportion to the amounts in the Divisions bearing on your Account Value. You cannot repay amounts taken as a partial withdrawal. Any subsequent payments received by us will be treated as additional Premium payments and will be subject to our limitations on Premiums.

A partial withdrawal may have tax consequences. See "Federal Income Tax Considerations - - Tax Treatment of Policy Benefits," beginning on page xx of this prospectus.

Loans

Policy Loans. You may Request a Policy loan of up to 90% of your Account Value, decreased by the amount of any outstanding Policy Debt on the date the Policy loan is made less any accrued loan interest and less the current monthly deductions remaining for the balance of the Policy Year. When a Policy loan is made, a portion of your Account Value equal to the amount of the Policy loan will be allocated to the Loan Account as collateral for the loan. This amount will not be affected by the investment experience of the Series Account while the loan is outstanding and will be subtracted from the Divisions in proportion to the amounts in the Divisions bearing on your Account Value. The minimum Policy loan amount is $500.

The interest rate on the Policy loan will be determined annually, using a simple interest formula, at the beginning of each Policy Year. That interest rate will be guaranteed for that Policy Year and will apply to all Policy loans outstanding during that Policy Year. Interest is due and payable on each Policy Anniversary. Interest not paid when due will be added to the principal amount of the loan and will bear interest at the loan interest rate.

Presently, the maximum interest rate for Policy loans is the Moody's Corporate Bond Yield Average - Monthly Average Corporates, which is published by Moody's Investor Service, Inc. If the Moody’s Corporate Bond Yield Average ceases to be published, the maximum interest rate for Policy loans will be derived from a substantially similar average adopted by your state's Insurance Commissioner.

We must reduce our Policy loan interest rate if the maximum loan interest rate is lower than the loan interest rate for the previous Policy Year by one-half of one percent or more.

We may increase the Policy loan interest rate but such increase must be at least one-half of one percent. No increase may be made if the Policy loan interest rate would exceed the maximum loan interest rate. We will send you advance notice of any increase in the Policy loan rate.

Interest will be credited to amounts held in the Loan Account using a compound interest formula. The rate will be no less than the Policy loan interest rate then in effect less a maximum of 0.9%.

All payments we receive from you will be treated as Premium payments unless we have received notice, in form satisfactory to us, that the funds are for loan repayment. If you have a Policy loan, it is generally advantageous to repay the loan rather than make a Premium payment because Premium payments incur expense charges whereas loan repayments do not. Loan repayments will first reduce the outstanding balance of the Policy loan and then accrued but unpaid interest on such loans. We will accept repayment of any Policy loan at any time while the Policy is in force. Amounts paid to repay a Policy loan will be allocated to the Divisions in accordance with your allocation instructions then in effect at the time of repayment. Any amount in the Loan Account used to secure the repaid loan will be allocated back to the Sub-Accounts.

A Policy loan, whether or not repaid, will affect the Death Benefit Proceeds, payable upon the Insured's death, and the Account Value because the investment results of the Divisions do not apply to amounts held in the Loan Account. The longer a loan is outstanding, the greater the effect is likely to be, depending on the investment results of the Divisions while the loan is outstanding. The effect could be favorable or unfavorable.

Lapse and Reinstatement

Lapse and Continuation of Coverage. If you cease making Premium payments, coverage under your Policy and any riders to the Policy will continue until your Account Value, less any Policy Debt, is insufficient to cover the monthly deduction. When that occurs, the grace period will go into effect.

Grace Period. If the first day of a Policy Month occurs during the Valuation Period and your Account Value, less any Policy Debt, is not sufficient to cover the monthly deduction for that Policy Month, then your Policy will enter the grace period described below. If you do not pay sufficient additional Premiums during the grace period, your Policy will terminate without value.

The grace period will allow 61 days for the payment of Premium sufficient to keep the Policy in force. Any such Premium must be in an amount sufficient to cover deductions for the monthly risk charge, the service charge, the cost for any riders and any extra risk charge if the Insured is in a rated class for the next two Policy Months. Notice of Premium due will be mailed to your last known address or the last known address of any assignee of record at least 31 days before the date coverage under your Policy will cease. If the Premium due is not paid within the grace period, then the Policy and all rights to benefits will terminate without value at the end of the 61-day period. The Policy will continue to remain in force during this grace period. If the Death Benefit Proceeds become payable by us during the grace period, then any due and unpaid Policy charges will be deducted from the amount payable by us.

Termination of Policy. Your Policy will terminate on the earliest of the date we receive your Request to surrender, the expiration date of the grace period due to insufficient value or the date of death of the Insured. Upon lapse or termination, the Policy no longer provides insurance benefits.

Reinstatement. Before the Insured's death, we will reinstate your Policy, provided that the Policy has not been surrendered, and provided further that:

·	you make your reinstatement Request within three years from the date of termination;

·	you submit satisfactory Evidence of Insurability to us;

·	you pay an amount equal to the Policy charges which were due and unpaid at the end of the grace period;

·	you pay a Premium equal to four times the monthly deduction applicable on the date of reinstatement; and

·	you repay or reinstate any Policy loan that was outstanding on the date coverage ceased, including interest at 6.00% per year compounded annually from the date coverage ceased to the date of reinstatement of your Policy.

A reinstated Policy's Total Face Amount may not exceed the Total Face Amount at the time of termination. Your Account Value on the reinstatement date will reflect:

·	the Account Value at the time of termination; plus

·	net Premiums attributable to Premiums paid to reinstate the Policy; less

·	the monthly expense charge; less

·	the monthly cost of insurance charge applicable on the date of reinstatement; less

·	The expense charge applied to Premium.

The effective date of reinstatement will be the date the application for reinstatement is approved by us.

Deferral of Payment. We will usually pay any amount due from the Series Account within seven days after the Valuation Date following your Request giving rise to such payment or, in the case of death of the Insured, Due Proof of such death. Payment of any amount payable from the Series Account on death, surrender, partial withdrawal, or Policy loan may be postponed whenever:

·	the NYSE is closed other than customary weekend and holiday closing, or trading on the NYSE is otherwise restricted;

·	the SEC, by order, permits postponement for the protection of Owners; or

·	an emergency exists as determined by the SEC, as a result of which disposal of securities is not reasonably practicable, or it is not reasonably practicable to determine the value of the assets of the Series Account.

Federal Income Tax Considerations

The following summary provides a general description of the federal income tax considerations associated with the Policy and does not purport to be complete or to cover all situations. This discussion is not intended as tax advice. You should consult counsel or other competent tax advisers for more complete information. This discussion is based upon our understanding of the Internal Revenue Service’s (the "IRS") current interpretation of current federal income tax laws. We make no representation as to the likelihood of continuation of the current federal income tax laws or of the current interpretations by the IRS. We do not make any guarantee regarding the tax status of any Policy or any transaction regarding the Policy.

The Policy may be used in various arrangements, including non-qualified deferred compensation or salary continuance plans, split dollar insurance plans, executive bonus plans, retiree medical benefit plans and others. The tax consequences of such plans may vary depending on the particular facts and circumstances of each individual arrangement. Therefore, if the use of the Policy in any such arrangement is contemplated, you should consult a qualified tax adviser for advice on the tax attributes and consequences of the particular arrangement.

Tax Status of the Policy

A Policy has certain tax advantages when treated as a life insurance contract within the meaning of section 7702 of the Code. We believe that the Policy meets the section 7702 definition of a life insurance contract and will take whatever steps are appropriate and reasonable to attempt to cause the Policy to comply with section 7702. We reserve the right to amend the Policies to comply with any future changes in the Code, any regulations or rulings under the Code and any other requirements imposed by the IRS.

Diversification of Investments. Section 817(h) of the Code requires that the investments of each Division of the Series Account be "adequately diversified" in accordance with certain Treasury Department regulations. Disqualification of the Policy as a life insurance contract for failure to comply with the diversification requirements would result in the imposition on you of federal income tax at ordinary income tax rates with respect to the earnings allocable to the Policy in the year of the failure and all prior years prior to the receipt of payments under the Policy. We believe that the Divisions will be adequately diversified.

Policy Owner Control. In connection with its issuance of temporary and proposed regulations under Section 817(h) in 1986, the Treasury Department announced that those regulations did not "provide guidance concerning the circumstances in which investor control of the investments of a segregated asset account may cause the investor (i.e., the Owner), rather than the insurance company to be treated as the owner of the assets in the account" (which would result in the current taxation of the income on those assets to the Owner). In Revenue Ruling 2003-91, the IRS provided such guidance by describing the circumstances under which the owner of a variable contract will not possess sufficient control over the assets underlying the contract to be treated as the owner of those assets for federal income tax purposes. Rev. Rul. 2003-91 states that the determination of whether the owner of a variable contract is to be treated as the owner of the assets held by the insurance company under the contract will depend on all of the facts and circumstances. We do not believe that your ownership rights under the Policy would result in your being treated as the Owner of the assets of the Policy under Rev. Rul. 2003-91. However, we do not know whether additional guidance will be provided by the IRS on this issue and what standards may be contained in such guidance. Therefore, we reserve the right to modify the Policy as necessary to attempt to prevent an Owner from being considered the owner of a pro rata share of the assets of the Policy.

The following discussion assumes that your Policy will qualify as a life insurance contract for federal income tax purposes.

Tax Treatment of Policy Benefits

Life Insurance Death Benefit Proceeds. In general, the amount of the Death Benefit Payable under your Policy is excludible from your gross income under the Code.

If the death benefit is not received in a lump sum and is, instead, applied under a proceeds option agreed to by us and the Beneficiary, payments generally will be prorated between amounts attributable to the death benefit, which will be excludible from the Beneficiary's income, and amounts attributable to interest (occurring after the Insured's death), which will be includable in the Beneficiary's income.

Tax Deferred Accumulation. Any increase in your Account Value is generally not taxable to you. If you receive or are deemed to receive amounts from the Policy before the Insured dies, see the following section entitled “Distributions” for a more detailed discussion of the taxability of such payments.

Depending on the circumstances, any of the following transactions may have federal income tax consequences:

·	the exchange of a Policy for a life insurance, endowment or annuity contract;

·	a change in the death benefit option;

·	a Policy loan;

·	a partial surrender;

·	a complete surrender;

·	a change in the ownership of a Policy;

·	a change of the named Insured; or

·	an assignment of a Policy.

In addition, federal, state and local transfer and other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of Death Benefit Proceeds will depend on your circumstances and those of the named Beneficiary. Whether partial withdrawals (or other amounts deemed to be distributed) constitute income subject to federal income tax depends, in part, upon whether your Policy is considered a MEC.

Surrenders. If you surrender your Policy, you will recognize ordinary income to the extent the Account Value exceeds the "investment in the contract," which is generally the total of Premiums and other consideration paid for the Policy, less all amounts previously received under the Policy to the extent those amounts were excludible from gross income.

Modified Endowment Contracts. Section 7702A of the Code treats certain life insurance contracts as MECs. In general, a Policy will be treated as a MEC if total Premiums paid at any time during the first seven Policy Years exceed the sum of the net level Premiums which would have been paid on or before that time if the Policy provided for paid-up future benefits after the payment of seven level annual Premiums ("seven-pay test"). In addition, a Policy may be treated as a MEC if there is a "material change" of the Policy.

We will monitor your Premium payments and other Policy transactions and notify you if a payment or other transaction might cause your Policy to become a MEC. We will not invest any Premium or portion of a Premium that would cause your Policy to become a MEC without instruction to do so from you. We will promptly notify you or your agent of the excess cash received. We will not process the Premium payment unless we receive a MEC acceptance form or Policy change form within 48 hours of receipt of the excess funds. If paperwork is received that allows us to process the excess cash, the effective date will be the date of the new paperwork.

Further, if a transaction occurs which decreases the Total Face Amount of your Policy during the first seven years, we will retest your Policy, as of the date of its purchase, based on the lower Total Face Amount to determine compliance with the seven-pay test. Also, if a decrease in Total Face Amount occurs within seven years of a "material change," we will retest your Policy for compliance as of the date of the "material change." Failure to comply in either case would result in the Policy's classification as a MEC regardless of our efforts to provide a payment schedule that would not otherwise violate the seven-pay test.

The rules relating to whether a Policy will be treated as a MEC are complex and cannot be fully described in the limited confines of this summary. Therefore, you should consult with a competent tax adviser to determine whether a particular transaction will cause your Policy to be treated as a MEC.

Distributions

Distributions Under a Policy That Is Not a MEC. If your Policy is not a MEC, a distribution is generally treated first as a tax-free recovery of the "investment in the contract," and then as a distribution of taxable income to the extent the distribution exceeds the "investment in the contract." An exception is made for cash distributions that occur in the first 15 Policy Years as a result of a decrease in the death benefit or other change that reduces benefits under the Policy that are made for purposes of maintaining compliance with section 7702. Such distributions are taxed in whole or part as ordinary income (to the extent of any gain in the Policy) under rules prescribed in section 7702.

If your Policy is not a MEC, Policy loans and loans secured by the Policy are generally not treated as distributions. Such loans are instead generally treated as your indebtedness.

Finally, if your Policy is not a MEC, distributions (including distributions upon surrender), Policy loans and loans secured by the Policy are not subject to the ten percent additional tax applicable to distributions from a MEC.

Distributions Under Modified Endowment Contracts. If treated as a MEC, your Policy will be subject to the following tax rules:

·	First, partial withdrawals are treated as ordinary income subject to ordinary income tax up to the amount equal to the excess (if any) of your Account Value immediately before the distribution over the "investment in the contract" at the time of the distribution.

·	Second, Policy loans and loans secured by a Policy are treated as partial withdrawals and taxed accordingly. Any past-due loan interest that is added to the amount of the loan is treated as a loan.

·	Third, a ten percent additional penalty tax is imposed on that portion of any distribution (including distributions upon surrender), Policy loans, or loans secured by a Policy, that is included in income, except where the distribution or loan is made to a taxpayer that is a natural person, and:

1.	made when the taxpayer is age 59½ or older;

2.	attributable to the taxpayer becoming disabled; or

3.	is part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) for the duration of the taxpayer’s life (or life expectancy) or for the duration of the longer of the taxpayer’s or the Beneficiary's life (or life expectancies).

Multiple Policies. All MECs issued by us (or our affiliates) to you during any calendar year will be treated as a single MEC for purposes of determining the amount of a Policy distribution that is taxable to you.

Treatment When Insured Reaches Attained Age 121. As described above, when the Insured reaches Attained Age 121, we will issue you a "paid-up" life insurance Policy. We believe that the paid-up life insurance Policy will continue to qualify as a "life insurance contract" under the Code. However, there is some uncertainty regarding this treatment. It is possible, therefore, that you would be viewed as constructively receiving the Cash Surrender Value in the year in which the Insured attains age 121 and would realize taxable income at that time, even if the Death Benefit Proceeds were not distributed at that time. In addition, any outstanding Policy Debt will be repaid at that time. This repayment may be treated as a taxable distribution to you, if your contract is not a MEC.

Federal Income Tax Withholding. We are required to withhold 10% on that portion of a Policy distribution that is taxable, unless you direct us in writing not to do so at or before the time of the Policy distribution. As the Owner you are responsible for the payment of any taxes and early distribution penalties that may be due on Policy distributions.

Actions to Ensure Compliance with the Tax Law. We believe that the maximum amount of Premiums we intend to permit for the Policies will comply with the Code definition of a "life insurance contract." We will monitor the amount of your Premiums, and, if you pay a Premium during a Policy Year that exceeds those permitted by the Code, we will promptly refund the Premium or a portion of the Premium before any allocation to the Funds. We reserve the right to increase the death benefit (which may result in larger charges under a Policy) or to take any other action deemed necessary to ensure the compliance of the Policy with the federal tax definition of a life insurance contract.

Trade or Business Entity Owns or Is Directly or Indirectly a Beneficiary of the Policy. Where a Policy is owned by other than a natural person, the Owner's ability to deduct interest on business borrowing unrelated to the Policy can be impacted as a result of its ownership of cash value life insurance. No deduction will be allowed for a portion of a taxpayer's otherwise deductible interest expense unless the Policy covers only one individual, and such individual is, at the time first covered by the Policy, a 20 percent owner of the trade or business entity that owns the Policy, or an officer, director, or employee of such trade or business.

Although this limitation generally does not apply to Policies held by natural persons, if a trade or business (other than one carried on as a sole proprietorship) is directly or indirectly the Beneficiary under a Policy (e.g., pursuant to a split-dollar agreement), the Policy will be treated as held by such trade or business. The effect will be that a portion of the trade or business entity's deduction for its interest expenses will be disallowed unless the above exception for a 20 percent owner, employee, officer or director applies.

The portion of the entity's interest deduction that is disallowed will generally be a pro rata amount which bears the same ratio to such interest expense as the taxpayer's average unborrowed cash value bears to the sum of the taxpayer's average unborrowed cash value and average adjusted bases of all other assets. Any corporate or business use of the life insurance should be carefully reviewed by your tax adviser with attention to these rules as well as any other rules and possible tax law changes that could occur with respect to corporate-owned life insurance.

Employer-Owned Life Insurance. The Pension Protection Act of 2006 added a new section to the Code that denies the tax-free treatment of death benefits payable under an employer-owned life insurance contract unless certain notice and consent requirements are met and either (1) certain rules relating to the insured employee’s status are satisfied or (2) certain rules relating to the payment of the “amount received under the contract” to, or for the benefit of, certain beneficiaries or successors of the insured employee are satisfied. The new rules apply to life insurance contracts owned by corporations (including S corporations), individual sole proprietors, estates and trusts and partnerships that are engaged in a trade or business. Any business contemplating the purchase of a Policy on the life of an employee should consult with its legal and tax advisers regarding the applicability of the new legislation to the proposed purchase.

Split Dollar Life Insurance. A tax adviser should also be consulted with respect to the 2003 split dollar regulations if you have purchased or are considering the purchase of a Policy for a split dollar insurance plan. Any business contemplating the purchase of a new life insurance contract or a change in an existing contract should consult a tax adviser.

There may also be an indirect tax upon the income in the Policy or the proceeds of a Policy under the federal corporate alternative minimum tax, if the policy owner is subject to that tax.

Other Employee Benefit Programs. Complex rules may apply when a Policy is held by an employer or a trust, or acquired by an employee, in connection with the provision of employee benefits. These Policy owners also must consider whether the Policy was applied for by, or issued to, a person having an insurable interest under applicable state law, as the lack of insurable interest may, among other things, affect the qualification of the Policy as life insurance for federal income tax purposes and the right of the Beneficiary to death benefits. Employers and employer-created trusts may be subject to reporting, disclosure and fiduciary obligations under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. You should consult your legal adviser.

Policy Loan Interest. Generally, no tax deduction is allowed for interest paid or accrued on any indebtedness under a Policy.

Our Taxes. We are taxed as a life insurance company under part I of subchapter L of the Code. The operations of the Series Account are taxed as part of our operations. Investment income and realized capital gains are not taxed to the extent that they are applied under the Policies. As a result of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990, we are generally required to capitalize and amortize certain Policy acquisition expenses over a ten year period rather than currently deducting such expenses. This so-called "deferred acquisition cost" tax ("DAC tax") applies to the deferred acquisition expenses of a Policy and results in a significantly higher corporate income tax liability for Great-West. We reserve the right to adjust the amount of a charge to Premium to compensate us for these anticipated higher corporate income taxes.

A portion of the expense charges applied to Premium is used to offset the federal, state or local taxes that we incur which are attributable to the Series Account or the Policy. We reserve the right to adjust the amount of this charge.

Summary.

·	We do not make any guarantees about the Policy's tax status.

·	We believe the Policy will be treated as a life insurance contract under federal tax laws.

·	Death benefits generally are not subject to federal income tax.

·	Investment gains are normally not taxed unless distributed to you before the Insured dies.

·	If you pay more Premiums than permitted under the seven-pay test, your Policy will be a MEC.

·	If your Policy becomes a MEC, partial withdrawals, Policy loans and surrenders may incur taxes and tax penalties.

Corporate Tax Shelter Requirements

The Company does not believe that any purchase of a Policy by an Owner pursuant to this offering will be subject to the tax shelter registration, customer list or reporting requirements under the Code and implementing regulations. All Owners that are corporations are advised to consult with their own tax and/or legal counsel and advisers, to make their own determination as to the applicability of the disclosure requirements of IRC § 6011 and Treas. Reg. Section 1.6011-4 to their federal income tax returns.

Legal Proceedings

There are no pending legal proceedings that would have an adverse material effect on the Series Account or on GWFS. Great-West is engaged in various kinds of routine litigation that, in our judgment, is not material to its total assets or material with respect to the Series Account.

Legal Matters

Beverly A. Byrne, Chief Compliance Officer & Legal Counsel, Financial Services, of Great-West, has passed upon all matters of Colorado law pertaining to the Policy, including the validity of the Policy and our right to issue the Policy under Colorado law. The law firm of Jorden Burt LLP, 1025 Thomas Jefferson St., N.W., Suite 400, East Lobby, Washington, D.C. 20007-5208, serves as special counsel to Great-West with regard to the federal securities laws.

Financial Statements

Great-West's consolidated financial statements, which are included in the Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”), should be considered only as bearing on our ability to meet our obligations with respect to the death benefit and our assumption of the mortality and expense risks. They should not be considered as bearing on the investment performance of the Fund shares held in the Series Account.

General Information and History of Great-West and the Series Account

Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company (“Great-West,” the “Company,” “we” or “us”) is a stock life insurance company that was originally organized under the laws of the state of Kansas as the National Interment Association. Our name was changed to Ranger National Life Insurance Company in 1963 and to Insuramerica Corporation prior to changing to our current name in February 1982. In September 1990, we redomesticated under the laws of Colorado.

We are authorized to do business in forty-nine states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands and Guam. We issue individual and group life insurance policies and annuity contracts and accident and health insurance policies.

We established the COLI VUL-2 Series Account of Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company (the “Series Account”) in accordance with Colorado law on November 25, 1997. The Series Account is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

State Regulation

We are subject to the laws of Colorado governing life insurance companies and to regulation by Colorado’s Commissioner of Insurance, whose agents periodically conduct an examination of our financial condition and business operations. We are also subject to the insurance laws and regulations of all the jurisdictions in which we are authorized to do business.

We are required to file an annual statement with the insurance regulatory authority of those jurisdictions where we are authorized to do business relating to our business operations and financial condition as of December 31st of the preceding year.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The financial statements of each of the investment divisions of the COLI VUL-2 Series Account of Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company and the consolidated financial statements of Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company and subsidiaries included in this Prospectus and the related financial statement schedule included elsewhere in the Registration Statement have been audited by [ ] , an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their reports appearing herein and elsewhere in the Registration Statement which report on the consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule of Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company and subsidiaries expresses an unqualified opinion and includes an explanatory paragraph referring to the change in accounting for the recognition and presentation of other-than temporary impairments for certain investments, as required by accounting guidance adopted on April 1, 2009, and both have been so included in reliance upon the reports of such firm given upon their authority as experts in accounting and auditing.

Underwriters

The offering of the Policy is made on a continuous basis by GWFS Equities, Inc. ("GWFS Equities"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Great-West, whose principal business address is 8515 East Orchard Road, Greenwood Village, Colorado 80111. GWFS Equities is registered with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") as a broker-dealer and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”).

GWFS Equities has received no underwriting commissions in connection with this offering in each of the last three fiscal years.

Licensed insurance agents will sell the Policy in those states where the Policy may be lawfully sold. Such agents will be registered representatives of broker-dealers registered under the Exchange Act, which are members of FINRA and which have entered into selling agreements with GWFS Equities. GWFS Equities also acts as the general distributor of certain annuity contracts issued by us. The maximum sales commission payable to our agents, independent registered insurance agents and other registered broker-dealers is 70% of Premium up to the first year target Premium and 7% of the portion of the first year Premium above the target. In addition, asset-based trail commissions may be paid. A sales representative may be required to return all or a portion of the commissions paid if: (i) a Policy terminates prior to the second Policy Anniversary; or (ii) a Policy is surrendered for the Surrender Benefit within the first six Policy Years and applicable state insurance law permits a return of expense charge.

Underwriting Procedures

We will issue on a fully underwritten basis applicants up to 300% of our standard current mortality assumptions. We will issue on a simplified basis based on case characteristics, such as required Policy size, average age of group and the industry of the group using our standard mortality assumptions. We will issue on a guaranteed basis for larger groups based on case characteristics such as the size of the group, Policy size, average age of group, industry, and group location.

Item 29.

Indemnification. Provisions exist under the Colorado Business Corporation Act and the Bylaws of Great-West whereby Great-West may indemnify a director, officer or controlling person of Great-West against liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933. The following excerpts contain the substance of these provisions:

Colorado Business Corporation Act

Article 109 - INDEMNIFICATION

Section 7-109-101. Definitions.

As used in this Article:

(1) "Corporation" includes any domestic or foreign entity that is a predecessor of the corporation by reason of a merger, or other transaction in which the predecessor's existence ceased upon consummation of the transaction.

(2) "Director" means an individual who is or was a director of a corporation or an individual who, while a director of a corporation, is or was serving at the corporation's request as a director, an officer, an agent, an associate, an employee, a fiduciary, a manager, a member, a partner, a promoter, or a trustee of, or to hold any similar position with, another domestic or foreign entity or employee benefit plan. A director is considered to be serving an employee benefit plan at the corporation's request if the director’s duties to the corporation also impose duties on, or otherwise involve services by, the director to the plan or to participants in or beneficiaries of the plan. “Director” includes, unless the context requires otherwise, the estate or personal representative of a director.

(3) "Expenses" includes counsel fees.

(4) "Liability" means the obligation incurred with respect to a proceeding to pay a judgment, settlement, penalty, fine, including an excise tax assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan, or reasonable expenses.

(5) "Official capacity" means, when used with respect to a director, the office of director in the corporation and, when used with respect to a person other than a director as contemplated in Section 7-109-107, the office in a corporation held by the officer or the employment, fiduciary, or agency relationship undertaken by the employee, fiduciary, or agent on behalf of the corporation. "Official capacity" does not include service for any other domestic or foreign corporation or other person or employee benefit plan.

(6) "Party" includes a person who was, is, or is threatened to be made a named defendant or respondent in a proceeding.

(7) "Proceeding" means any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative and whether formal or informal.

Section 7-109-102. Authority to indemnify directors.

(1) Except as provided in subsection (4) of this section, a corporation may indemnify a person made a party to the proceeding because the person is or was a director against liability incurred in the proceeding if:

(a)

The person conducted himself or herself in good faith; and

(b)

The person reasonably believed:

(I) In the case of conduct in an official capacity with the corporation, that his or her conduct was in the corporation's best interests; and

(II) In all other cases, that his or her conduct was at least not opposed to the corporation's best interests; and

(c)

In the case of any criminal proceeding, the person had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

(2) A director's conduct with respect to an employee benefit plan for a purpose the director reasonably believed to be in the interests of the participants in or beneficiaries of the plan is conduct that satisfies the requirements of subparagraph (II) of paragraph (b) of subsection (1) of this section. A director's conduct with respect to an employee benefit plan for a purpose that the director did not reasonably believe to be in the interests of the participants in or beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed not to satisfy the requirements of subparagraph (a) of subsection (1) of this section.

(3) The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, is not, of itself, determinative that the director did not meet the standard of conduct described in this section.

(4) A corporation may not indemnify a director under this section:

(a) In connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation in which the director was adjudged liable to the corporation; or

(b) In connection with any proceeding charging that the director derived an improper personal benefit, whether or not involving action in an official capacity, in which proceeding the director was adjudged liable on the basis that he or she derived an improper personal benefit.

(5) Indemnification permitted under this section in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of a corporation is limited to reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding.

Section 7-109-103. Mandatory Indemnification of Directors.

Unless limited by the articles of incorporation, a corporation shall indemnify a person who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any proceeding to which the person was a party because the person is or was a director, against reasonable expenses incurred by him or her in connection with the proceeding.

Section 7-109-104. Advance of Expenses to Directors.

(1) A corporation may pay for or reimburse the reasonable expenses incurred by a director who is a party to a proceeding in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding if:

(a) The director furnishes the corporation a written affirmation of the director’s good-faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct described in Section 7-109-102;

(b) The director furnishes the corporation a written undertaking, executed personally or on the director's behalf, to repay the advance if it is ultimately determined that he or she did not meet such standard of conduct; and

(c) A determination is made that the facts then known to those making the determination would not preclude indemnification under this article.

(2) The undertaking required by paragraph (b) of subsection (1) of this section shall be an unlimited general obligation of the director but need not be secured and may be accepted without reference to financial ability to make repayment.

(3) Determinations and authorizations of payments under this section shall be made in the manner specified in Section 7-109-106.

Section 7-109-105. Court-Ordered Indemnification of Directors.

(1) Unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation, a director who is or was a party to a proceeding may apply for indemnification to the court conducting the proceeding or to another court of competent jurisdiction. On receipt of an application, the court, after giving any notice the court considers necessary, may order indemnification in the following manner:

(a) If it determines the director is entitled to mandatory indemnification under section 7-109-103, the court shall order indemnification, in which case the court shall also order the corporation to pay the director's reasonable expenses incurred to obtain court-ordered indemnification.

(b) If it determines that the director is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification in view of all the relevant circumstances, whether or not the director met the standard of conduct set forth in section 7-109-102 (1) or was adjudged liable in the circumstances described in Section 7-109-102 (4), the court may order such indemnification as the court deems proper; except that the indemnification with respect to any proceeding in which liability shall have been adjudged in the circumstances described Section 7-109-102 (4) is limited to reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding and reasonable expenses incurred to obtain court-ordered indemnification.

Section 7-109-106. Determination and Authorization of Indemnification of Directors.

(1) A corporation may not indemnify a director under Section 7-109-102 unless authorized in the specific case after a determination has been made that indemnification of the director is permissible in the circumstances because he has met the standard of conduct set forth in Section 7-109-102. A corporation shall not advance expenses to a director under Section 7-109-104 unless authorized in the specific case after the written affirmation and undertaking required by Section 7-109-104(1)(a) and (1)(b) are received and the determination required by Section 7-109-104(1)(c) has been made.

(2) The determinations required by under subsection (1) of this section shall be made:

(a) By the board of directors by a majority vote of those present at a meeting at which a quorum is present, and only those directors not parties to the proceeding shall be counted in satisfying the quorum; or

(b) If a quorum cannot be obtained, by a majority vote of a committee of the board of directors designated by the board of directors, which committee shall consist of two or more directors not parties to the proceeding; except that directors who are parties to the proceeding may participate in the designation of directors for the committee.

(3) If a quorum cannot be obtained as contemplated in paragraph (a) of subsection (2) of this section, and the committee cannot be established under paragraph (b) of subsection (2) of this section, or even if a quorum is obtained or a committee designated, if a majority of the directors constituting such quorum or such committee so directs, the determination required to be made by subsection (1) of this section shall be made:

(a) By independent legal counsel selected by a vote of the board of directors or the committee in the manner specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of subsection (2) of this section or, if a quorum of the full board cannot be obtained and a committee cannot be established, by independent legal counsel selected by a majority vote of the full board of directors; or

(b) By the shareholders

(4) Authorization of indemnification and advance of expenses shall be made in the same manner as the determination that indemnification or advance of expenses is permissible; except that, if the determination that indemnification or advance of expenses is permissible is made by independent legal counsel, authorization of indemnification and advance of expenses shall be made by the body that selected such counsel.

Section 7-109-107. Indemnification of Officer, Employees, Fiduciaries, and Agents.

(1) Unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation:

(a) An officer is entitled to mandatory indemnification under section 7-109-103, and is entitled to apply for court-ordered indemnification under section 7-109-105, in each case to the same extent as a director;

(b) A corporation may indemnify and advance expenses to an officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent of the corporation to the same extent as a director; and

(c) A corporation may indemnify and advance expenses to an officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent who is not a director to a greater extent, if not inconsistent with public policy, and if provided for by its bylaws, general or specific action of its board of directors or shareholders, or contract.

Section 7-109-108. Insurance.

A corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of a person who is or was a director, officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent of the corporation, or who, while a director, officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent of the corporation, is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee, fiduciary, or agent of any other domestic or foreign entity or of an employee benefit plan, against liability asserted against or incurred by the person in that capacity or arising from the person’s status as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify the person against such liability under the Section 7-109-102, 7-109-103 or 7-109-107. Any such insurance may be procured from any insurance company designated by the board of directors, whether such insurance company is formed under the laws of this state or any other jurisdiction of the United States or elsewhere, including any insurance company in which the corporation has an equity or any other interest through stock ownership or otherwise.

Section 7-109-109. Limitation of Indemnification of Directors.

(1) A provision treating a corporation's indemnification of, or advance of expenses to, directors that is contained in its articles of incorporation or bylaws, in a resolution of its shareholders or board of directors, or in a contract, except for an insurance policy or otherwise, is valid only to the extent the provision is not inconsistent with Sections 7-109-101 to 7-109-108. If the articles of incorporation limit indemnification or advance of expenses, indemnification or advance of expenses are valid only to the extent not inconsistent with the articles of incorporation.

(2) Sections 7-109-101 to 7-109-108 do not limit a corporation's power to pay or reimburse expenses incurred by a director in connection with an appearance as a witness in a proceeding at a time when he or she has not been made a named defendant or respondent in the proceeding.

Section 7-109-110. Notice to Shareholders of Indemnification of Director.

If a corporation indemnifies or advances expenses to a director under this article in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation, the corporation shall give written notice of the indemnification or advance to the shareholders with or before the notice of the next shareholders' meeting. If the next shareholder action is taken without a meeting at the instigation of the board of directors, such notice shall be given to the shareholders at or before the time the first shareholder signs a writing consenting to such action.
