______________

(1)Mortality rates vary by age and demographic characteristic such as gender. Mortality rate assumptions are based on a combination of company and industry experience. A mortality improvement assumption is also applied. For any given contract, mortality rates vary throughout the period over which cash flows are projected for purposes of valuating the embedded derivatives.

(2)For Lapses, Withdrawals, and Utilizations the rates were weighted by counts, for Mortality weighted average rates are shown for all ages combined and for Withdrawals the weighted averages were based on an estimated split of partial withdrawal and dollar-for-dollar withdrawals.
