Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule 477 under the
Securities Act of 1933, Nationwide Life Insurance Company ("Nationwide") respectfully requests the withdrawal of the Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 filed March 1, 2021, File No. 333-229802, together with all exhibits
thereto and correspondence filed therewith (the "Amendment").
Nationwide is making this request
because it determined that registration of additional securities was necessary and therefore a new registration statement on Form S-1 was required. Nationwide subsequently filed a registration statement on Form S-1 to
register the additional securities (File No. 333-255535). Accordingly, Nationwide respectfully requests effectiveness of this withdrawal to be as soon as practicable.
Nationwide confirms that: (i) the
Amendment has not automatically become effective nor been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission; and (ii) no securities have been sold pursuant to the Amendment.
If you have any questions
concerning this matter, please contact me at 614-249-7001.
Sincerely yours,
Nationwide Life Insurance
Company
