(1) Consists primarily of changes in MRB assets and liabilities due to aggregation impacts related to fund performance and other assumptions and the impact of changes in actual to expected policyholder behavior.

(2) Net amount at risk (“NAR”) is the current guaranteed minimum benefit in excess of the current account balance as of the balance sheet date. For guaranteed living benefits (“GLBs”), the guaranteed minimum benefit is calculated based on the present value of GLB payments. Our variable annuity products may offer more than one type of guaranteed benefit rider to a policyholder. In instances where more than one guaranteed benefit feature exists in a contract, the guaranteed benefit rider that provides the highest NAR is used in the calculation.
