Overview of the Contract
What is the purpose of this Contract, and what is it designed to do?
The purpose of the Contract is to help individuals who are seeking long-term, tax-deferred accumulation of funds. Purchasing the Contract as an investment vehicle for a Qualified Retirement Plan does not provide any additional tax advantage beyond that already available through the Qualified Retirement Plan. Therefore, the individual should have reasons other than tax deferral to purchase this product.
The Contract can be used to supplement Your retirement income by providing a stream of income payments during the payout phase. It also offers death benefits to protect Your designated beneficiaries. This Contract may be appropriate if You have a long investment time horizon. It is not intended for people who may need to make early or frequent withdrawals or intend to engage in frequent trading in the Underlying Funds.
To determine the Contract You own, look in the bottom left-hand corner of Your Contract for the form number. This prospectus applies to all HMLIC Contracts with a form number of ICC16-469 or IC-469 immediately followed by any combination of 3 letters and/or numbers.
How Do I Accumulate Assets in this Contract and Receive Income from the Contract?
Your Contract has two phases: 1) an accumulation (savings) phase; and 2) a payout (income) phase.
1) Accumulation (Savings) Phase
The accumulation phase is the period of time (often several years or even decades) during which You are making premium payments into Your Contract. To help You accumulate assets, You can invest Your premium payments in:
Underlying Funds (mutual funds), a broad range of varying asset categories (such as lifecycle/target date, large company value, small company growth, and bond funds, among others). Each has its own investment strategies, investment advisers, expense ratios, and returns; and
a fixed account option, which offers a guaranteed interest rate during a selected period. The guaranteed rate is established at issue and will be re-determined every 5 years thereafter but will never be less than 1%. The fixed account is part of HMLIC’s general account.
A list of Underlying Funds in which You can invest is provided in Appendix A: Underlying Funds Available Under the Contract.
2) Payout (Income) Phase
You can elect to annuitize Your Contract and turn Your Account Value into a stream of income payments (sometimes called Annuity Payments), at which time the accumulation phase of the Contract ends. These payments may continue for a fixed period of years, for Your entire life, or for the longer of a fixed period or Your life. The payments may also be fixed or variable. Variable payments will vary based on the performance of the Investment Options You select.
Please note that if You annuitize, Your investments will be converted to income payments and You may no longer be able to choose to withdraw money at will from Your Contract. All benefits (including guaranteed minimum death benefits and living benefits) terminate upon annuitization.
What are the Primary Features and Options that this Contract Offers?
Accessing Your money. Until You annuitize, You have full access to Your money. You can choose to withdraw Your Account Value at any time (although if You withdraw early, You may have to pay a surrender charge and/or income taxes, including a tax penalty if You are younger than age 59 ½).
Loans. Loans may be available in certain Qualified Contracts, except for IRA contracts issued under IRC Sections 408 and 408A, if allowed by the Qualified Retirement Plan. The terms of such loans are subject to the provisions of the plan and the IRC.
Tax treatment. You can transfer money between Investment Options without tax implications, and earnings (if any) on Your investments are generally tax-deferred. You are taxed only when: (1) You make a withdrawal; (2) You receive an income payment from the Contract; or (3) upon payment of a death benefit.
6

 

Death benefits. Your Contract includes a basic death benefit that will pay Your designated beneficiaries the greater of: (1) the Account Value; or (2) the Net Premium paid, less an adjustment for any withdrawals and a reduction for any outstanding loan balance. An adjustment for any withdrawal is determined by dividing the withdrawal amount by the Account Value immediately prior to the withdrawal and multiplying the resulting fraction by the death benefit immediately prior to the withdrawal.
Portfolio rebalancing and dollar cost averaging. At no additional charge, You may select portfolio rebalancing, which automatically rebalances the Investment Options You select to maintain Your chosen mix of Investment Options. Alternately, at no additional charge, You may select dollar cost averaging, which automatically transfers a specific amount of money from the fixed account to the Investment Options You have selected, at set intervals over a specific period of time.
Benefits Available Under the Contract
The following table summarizes information about the benefits available under the Contract.
Name of benefit Purpose Is Benefit Standard or Optional Maximum Fee Brief Description of Restrictions/Limitations
Death Benefit If You die before the Annuity Date and while the Contract is in force, pays Your designated beneficiaries the greater of: (1) the Account Value; or (2) the Net Premium paid, less an adjustment for any withdrawals and a reduction for any outstanding loan balance Standard None None
Portfolio Rebalancing Automatically rebalances the Investment Options You select (either monthly, quarterly or annually) to maintain Your chosen mix of investment option Standard None Cannot use with the dollar cost averaging option
Dollar Cost Averaging Automatically transfers a specific amount of money from the Fixed Account to the Investment Options Your have selected, at set intervals over a specific period of time. Standard None Cannot use with the portfolio rebalancing option
Buying the Contract
How Do I Purchase the Personal Retirement Planner Qualified Variable Annuity Contract?
To purchase a Contract, You must complete an application bearing all requested signatures and a client profile form, in those instances when the purchase of this product was the result of a recommendation. For 457(b) and 401 Contracts the employer will purchase the Contract on behalf of the employee, but the employee will be required to complete an application and client profile form in those instances, when the purchase of this product was the result of a recommendation.
How Much Can I Contribute and How are My Contributions Invested?
Your premium payments will be invested in the Investment Options that You choose.
7

 

  Qualified Policies (Purchased using pre-tax dollars)
Minimum Initial Annual Premium $25 per month
Minimum Subsequent Annual Premiums $300 annually
Maximum Subsequent Premiums (per Contract Year after 1st Contract Anniversary) As permitted by IRS regulations
Maximum Total Premiums $1,000,000 without Our prior approval
* We reserve the right to reject any premium payments for any reason. We may also permit You to invest more than the maximum amounts listed above if You obtain Our prior approval.
After Your initial premium payment, You are not required to make any additional premium payments under Your Contract.
When Will Any Premium Payments that I Make be Credited to My Account?
Net Premium payments allocated to the Separate Account will be applied at the applicable Accumulation Unit Value next determined following receipt in good form (sufficiently clear so that We do not need to exercise any discretion to follow such instructions). The minimum premium payment for the Contract is $25 per month or $300 per year. HMLIC limits the maximum cumulative premium to $1 million without Our prior approval. After the first Contract Year, We reserve the right to limit premium payments to a maximum of $25,000 each Contract Year.
Allocation of Net PremiumsWhen You complete Your application, You will give Us instructions on how to allocate Your Net Premium payments among the fixed account and/or the available Subaccounts. The amount You direct to a particular Subaccount or to the fixed account must be in whole number percentages from 5% to 100% of the Net Premium payment. If You make additional premium payments, We will allocate the Net Premiums in the same manner as Your initial Net Premium payment. A request to change the allocation of premium payments will be effective on the Valuation Date of receipt of the request in good form.
Premium payments allocated to the Separate Account are credited on the basis of Accumulation Unit Value. The number of Accumulation Units purchased by Your premium payments is determined by dividing the dollar amount credited to each Subaccount by the applicable Accumulation Unit Value next determined following receipt of the payment at Our Home Office. The value of an Accumulation Unit is affected by the investment experience of the Underlying Fund, expenses and the deduction of certain charges under the Contract.
Accumulation Units are valued on each Valuation Date. If We receive Your premium payment before 3:00 p.m. Central Time (or before the close of the NYSE, if earlier), We will process the order using the applicable Subaccount Accumulation Unit Value determined at the close of that Valuation Date. If We receive Your premium payment at or after 3:00 p.m. Central Time (or at or after the close of the NYSE if earlier), We will process the order using the applicable Subaccount Accumulation Unit Value determined at the close of the next Valuation Date.
Surrendering Your Contract or Making withdrawals: Accessing the Money in Your Contract
Can I Access the Money in My Account During the Asset Accumulations (Savings) Phase?
Yes. However, withdrawal of Account Value from Qualified Contracts (other than traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs) are subject to any restrictions imposed by the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) or under the Qualified Retirement Plan. However, if not restricted by the IRC or Qualified Retirement Plan under which the Contract is issued, You may surrender the Contract or withdraw part of Your Account Value for cash before Annuity Payments begin.
What is the Process to Request a Withdrawal of Money from My Contract?
You may request a surrender or a partial withdrawal by submitting a signed, HMLIC form to HMLIC at Our Home Office at P.O. Box 4657, Springfield, Illinois 62708-4657. The kind of HMLIC form to be used will depend on whether any proceeds from the withdrawal/surrender are to be sent to any party other than the Contract Owner. A Contract Owner may request a HMLIC withdrawal/surrender form by writing to P.O. Box 4657, Springfield, Illinois 62708-4657or by calling 800-999-1030 or may down load the form on Our secure website at horacemann.com.
For each withdrawal, You may specify the account(s) from which the withdrawal will be deducted. Unless You specify otherwise, withdrawals will be deducted from the fixed account and the Subaccount(s), each in proportion to their share of the sum of the Account Value in these accounts. The Account Value will be reduced by the amount We distribute, per Your request, any applicable surrender charges and/or any applicable taxes. Withdrawals from the Contract will reduce the Account Value, the amount available
8

 

to purchase annuity payments under the Contract, and the Death Benefit. Any partial withdrawal is subject to a $100 minimum and may not reduce the Contract Owner’s Account Value to less than $100. Withdrawals from the Contract will reduce the Account Value, the amount available to purchase annuity payments under the Contract, and the Death Benefit.
The surrender or partial withdrawal of Variable Account Value (including a rollover, exchange, etc.) is determined on the basis of the accumulation Unit Value. Withdrawals and surrenders will be processed either on a Valuation Date specified by You in a request, provided the Valuation Date specified occurs on or after receipt of the request in good form at Our Home Office, or on the Valuation Date following the receipt of such request in good form at Our Home Office. HMLIC ordinarily completes a transaction within seven calendar days after receipt of a request in good form for a partial withdrawal or surrender.
Can I Access the Money in My Account During the Annuity (Income) Phase?
You will receive payments under the Annuity Payment option You select. However, You generally may not take any other withdrawals.
Additional Information About Fees
The following tables describe the fees and expenses that You will pay when buying, owning, and surrendering the Contract. Please refer to Your Contract data page for information about the specific fees You will pay each year based on the options You have elected.
The first table describes the fees and expenses that You will pay at the time that You buy the Contract, surrender or make withdrawals from the Contract, or transfer Account Value between Investment Options. State premium taxes may also be deducted.
Transaction Expenses
Sales Load Imposed on Purchases (as a percentage of purchase payments) None
Deferred Sales Load (or Surrender Charge) (as a percentage of amount surrendered) 1 None
Exchange Fee None
1 If Your Contract is issued on or after May 1, 2020, there are currently no surrender charges. If Your Contract was issued prior to May 1, 2021 there were no surrender charges (Your Contract data pages reflect a surrender charge of 0%, and We cannot later impose a surrender charge).
We reserve the right to add surrender charges for Contracts issued in the future. If We elect to implement surrender charges, the maximum surrender charge is a percentage of the amount surrendered (year 1, 7%, year 2, 6.5%, year 3, 6%, year 4, 5.5%, year 5 5% and thereafter 0%). Surrender charges are subject to further modification by Us, but shall apply only to Contracts issued after the date of implementation.

(1) We deduct a pro rata portion of the administrative expense (annual maintenance fee) upon the surrender of the Contract. We sometimes use multiple Contract numbers, with the same first nine digits in the numbers, to segregate multiple sources of funds for a Contract Owner, such as employee versus employer. In these situations, We will deduct only one annual maintenance fee per year for those multiple Contract numbers. We reserve the right to change the annual maintenance fee for Contracts issued in the future.
The next item shows the minimum and maximum total operating expenses charged by the Underlying Funds that You may pay periodically during the time that You own the Contract.

Overview of the Contract
What is the purpose of this Contract, and what is it designed to do?
The purpose of the Contract is to help individuals who are seeking long-term, tax-deferred accumulation of funds
The Contract can be used to supplement Your retirement income by providing a stream of income payments during the payout phase. It also offers death benefits to protect Your designated beneficiaries. This Contract may be appropriate if You have a long investment time horizon. It is not intended for people who may need to make early or frequent withdrawals or intend to engage in frequent trading in the Underlying Funds.
To determine the Contract You own, look in the bottom left-hand corner of Your Contract for the form number. This prospectus applies to all HMLIC Contracts with a form number of ICC16-469 or IC-469 immediately followed by any combination of 3 letters and/or numbers.
How Do I Accumulate Assets in this Contract and Receive Income from the Contract?
Your Contract has two phases: 1) an accumulation (savings) phase; and 2) a payout (income) phase.
1) Accumulation (Savings) Phase
The accumulation phase is the period of time (often several years or even decades) during which You are making premium payments into Your Contract. To help You accumulate assets, You can invest Your premium payments in:
Underlying Funds (mutual funds), a broad range of varying asset categories (such as lifecycle/target date, large company value, small company growth, and bond funds, among others). Each has its own investment strategies, investment advisers, expense ratios, and returns; and
a fixed account option, which offers a guaranteed interest rate during a selected period. The guaranteed rate is established at issue and will be re-determined every 5 years thereafter but will never be less than 1%. The fixed account is part of HMLIC’s general account.
A list of Underlying Funds in which You can invest is provided in Appendix A: Underlying Funds Available Under the Contract.
2) Payout (Income) Phase
You can elect to annuitize Your Contract and turn Your Account Value into a stream of income payments (sometimes called Annuity Payments), at which time the accumulation phase of the Contract ends. These payments may continue for a fixed period of years, for Your entire life, or for the longer of a fixed period or Your life. The payments may also be fixed or variable. Variable payments will vary based on the performance of the Investment Options You select.
Please note that if You annuitize, Your investments will be converted to income payments and You may no longer be able to choose to withdraw money at will from Your Contract. All benefits (including guaranteed minimum death benefits and living benefits) terminate upon annuitization.
What are the Primary Features and Options that this Contract Offers?
Accessing Your money. Until You annuitize, You have full access to Your money. You can choose to withdraw Your Account Value at any time (although if You withdraw early, You may have to pay a surrender charge and/or income taxes, including a tax penalty if You are younger than age 59 ½).
Tax treatment. You can transfer money between Investment Options without tax implications, and earnings (if any) on Your investments are generally tax-deferred. You are taxed only when: (1) You make a withdrawal; (2) You receive an income payment from the Contract; or (3) upon payment of a death benefit.
Death benefits. Your Contract includes a basic death benefit that will pay Your designated beneficiaries the greater of: (1) the Account Value; or (2) the Net Premium paid, less an adjustment for any withdrawals and a reduction for any outstanding loan balance. An adjustment for any withdrawal is determined by dividing the withdrawal amount by the Account Value immediately prior to the withdrawal and multiplying the resulting fraction by the death benefit immediately prior to the withdrawal.
Portfolio rebalancing and dollar cost averaging. At no additional charge, You may select portfolio rebalancing, which automatically rebalances the Investment Options You select to maintain Your chosen mix of Investment Options. Alternately, at no additional charge, You may select dollar cost averaging, which automatically transfers a specific amount of money from the fixed account to the Investment Options You have selected, at set intervals over a specific period of time.

After Your initial premium payment, You are not required to make any additional premium payments under Your Contract.
When Will Any Premium Payments that I Make be Credited to My Account?
7

 

Net Premium payments allocated to the Separate Account will be applied at the applicable Accumulation Unit Value next determined following receipt in good form (sufficiently clear so that We do not need to exercise any discretion to follow such instructions). The minimum premium payment for the Contract is $25 per month or $300 per year. HMLIC limits the maximum cumulative premium to $1 million without Our prior approval. After the first Contract Year, We reserve the right to limit premium payments to a maximum of $25,000 each Contract Year.
Allocation of Net PremiumsWhen You complete Your application, You will give Us instructions on how to allocate Your Net Premium payments among the fixed account and/or the available Subaccounts. The amount You direct to a particular Subaccount or to the fixed account must be in whole number percentages from 5% to 100% of the Net Premium payment. If You make additional premium payments, We will allocate the Net Premiums in the same manner as Your initial Net Premium payment. A request to change the allocation of premium payments will be effective on the Valuation Date of receipt of the request in good form.
Premium payments allocated to the Separate Account are credited on the basis of Accumulation Unit Value. The number of Accumulation Units purchased by Your premium payments is determined by dividing the dollar amount credited to each Subaccount by the applicable Accumulation Unit Value next determined following receipt of the payment at Our Home Office. The value of an Accumulation Unit is affected by the investment experience of the Underlying Fund, expenses and the deduction of certain charges under the Contract.
Accumulation Units are valued on each Valuation Date. If We receive Your premium payment before 3:00 p.m. Central Time (or before the close of the NYSE, if earlier), We will process the order using the applicable Subaccount Accumulation Unit Value determined at the close of that Valuation Date. If We receive Your premium payment at or after 3:00 p.m. Central Time (or at or after the close of the NYSE if earlier), We will process the order using the applicable Subaccount Accumulation Unit Value determined at the close of the next Valuation Date.
Surrendering Your Contract or Making withdrawals: Accessing the Money in Your Contract
Can I Access the Money in My Account During the Asset Accumulations (Savings) Phase?
Yes. However, withdrawal of Account Value is subject to any restrictions imposed by the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). However, if not restricted by the IRC, You may surrender the Contract or withdraw part of Your Account Value for cash before Annuity Payments begin.
What is the Process to Request a Withdrawal of Money from My Contract?
You may request a surrender or a partial withdrawal by submitting a signed, HMLIC form to HMLIC at Our Home Office at P.O. Box 4657, Springfield, Illinois 62708-4657. The kind of HMLIC form to be used will depend on whether any proceeds from the withdrawal/surrender are to be sent to any party other than the Contract Owner. A Contract Owner may request a HMLIC withdrawal/surrender form by writing to P.O. Box 4657, Springfield, Illinois 62708-4657or by calling 800-999-1030 or may down load the form on Our secure website at horacemann.com.
For each withdrawal, You may specify the account(s) from which the withdrawal will be deducted. Unless You specify otherwise, withdrawals will be deducted from the fixed account and the Subaccount(s), each in proportion to their share of the sum of the Account Value in these accounts. The Account Value will be reduced by the amount We distribute, per Your request, any applicable surrender charges and/or any applicable taxes. Withdrawals from the Contract will reduce the Account Value, the amount available to purchase annuity payments under the Contract, and the Death Benefit. Any partial withdrawal is subject to a $100 minimum and may not reduce the Contract Owner’s Account Value to less than $100. Withdrawals from the Contract will reduce the Account Value, the amount available to purchase annuity payments under the Contract, and the Death Benefit.
The surrender or partial withdrawal of Variable Account Value (including a rollover, exchange, etc.) is determined on the basis of the accumulation Unit Value. Withdrawals and surrenders will be processed either on a Valuation Date specified by You in a request, provided the Valuation Date specified occurs on or after receipt of the request in good form at Our Home Office, or on the Valuation Date following the receipt of such request in good form at Our Home Office. HMLIC ordinarily completes a transaction within seven calendar days after receipt of a request in good form for a partial withdrawal or surrender.
Can I Access the Money in My Account During the Annuity (Income) Phase?
You will receive payments under the Annuity Payment option You select. However, You generally may not take any other withdrawals.

Additional Information About Fees
The following tables describe the fees and expenses that You will pay when buying, owning, and surrendering the Contract. Please refer to Your Contract data page for information about the specific fees You will pay each year based on the options You have elected.
The first table describes the fees and expenses that You will pay at the time that You buy the Contract, surrender or make withdrawals from the Contract, or transfer Account Value between Investment Options. State premium taxes may also be deducted.
Transaction Expenses
Sales Load Imposed on Purchases (as a percentage of purchase payments) None
Deferred Sales Load (or Surrender Charge) (as a percentage of amount surrendered) 1 None
Exchange Fee None
1 If Your Contract is issued on or after May 1, 2020, there are currently no surrender charges. If Your Contract was issued prior to May 1, 2021 there were no surrender charges (Your Contract data pages reflect a surrender charge of 0%, and We cannot later impose a surrender charge).
We reserve the right to add surrender charges for Contracts issued in the future. If We elect to implement surrender charges, the maximum surrender charge is a percentage of the amount surrendered (year 1, 7%, year 2, 6.5%, year 3, 6%, year 4, 5.5%, year 5 5% and thereafter 0%). Surrender charges are subject to further modification by Us, but shall apply only to Contracts issued after the date of implementation.
The next table describes the fees and expenses that You will pay each year during the time that You own the Contract (not including Underlying Fund fees and expenses).
Annual Contract Expenses
Administrative Expenses  
For Contracts issued on and After May 1, 2019 $ 35
For Contracts issued Prior to May 1, 2019 $ 25
Base Contract Expenses (as a percentage of average Account Value) 1.25%
Optional Benefit Expenses (as a percentage of benefit base or other (e.g., average Account Value)) N/A
(1) We deduct a pro rata portion of the administrative expense (annual maintenance fee) upon the surrender of the Contract. We sometimes use multiple Contract numbers, with the same first nine digits in the numbers, to segregate multiple sources of funds for a Contract Owner, such as employee versus employer. In these situations, We will deduct only one annual maintenance fee per year for those multiple Contract numbers. We reserve the right to change the annual maintenance fee for Contracts issued in the future.
The next item shows the minimum and maximum total operating expenses charged by the Underlying Funds that You may pay periodically during the time that You own the Contract. A complete list of Underlying Funds available under the Contract, including their annual expenses, may be found at the back of this document.

Example
This Example is intended to help You compare the cost of investing in the Contract with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts. These costs include transaction expenses, annual Contract expenses, and Annual Portfolio Company Expenses.
The Example assumes that You invest $100,000 in the Contract for the time periods indicated. The Example also assumes that Your investment has a 5% return each year and assumes the most expensive combination of Annual Portfolio Company Expenses and optional benefits available for an additional charge. Although Your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, Your costs would be:
