Title of Securities Being Registered: VAROOM® Flexible Premium Variable Annuity

 

VAROOM® Variable Annuity
May 1, 2021

National Integrity Life Insurance Company
Separate Account I of National Integrity Life Insurance Company

This prospectus describes a flexible premium variable annuity contract. This prospectus contains information about Separate Account I of National Integrity Life Insurance Company (Separate Account I) and the contract that you should know before investing. You should read this prospectus and any supplements, and retain them for future reference.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has not approved or disapproved these securities or determined that this prospectus is adequate. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

A registration statement relating to this contract, which includes a Statement of Additional Information (SAI) dated May 1, 2021, material incorporated by reference, and other information about Separate Account I and National Integrity Life Insurance Company, has been filed with the SEC (file numbers 811-04846 and 333-167372). The SAI is incorporated by reference into this prospectus. A free copy of the SAI is available by sending in the form on the last page of this prospectus, or by writing or calling our Administrative Office listed in the Glossary. The SEC maintains a website at www.sec.gov that contains the SAI and other information that is filed electronically with the SEC. The table of contents for the SAI is at the end of Part 9 of this prospectus.

The contract must be issued as a traditional IRA, Roth IRA, or SEP IRA (collectively referred to as IRAs). This contract does not provide the tax advantages typically provided by an annuity contract. The tax advantages of this contract exist solely through its qualification as an IRA.

Except for the Fidelity VIP Government Money Market Portfolio, the Funds available for investment under this contract are also available for direct purchase by the general public.

Two of the reasons Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) are attractive to direct purchasers are tax efficiency and cost-effectiveness.  Tax efficiency associated with ETFs will not be realized by purchasing this contract because this contract is an IRA.  The ETFs in which the subaccounts invest are cost-effective, but that cost-effectiveness will be reduced by the expenses of this contract. These expenses include the administration expenses that are used, in part, to reimburse us for the cost and commissions associated with investing in the underlying ETFs.

If you purchase shares of these Funds directly from a broker-dealer, you will not pay separate account expenses, but may pay commissions. You will also not have access to an annuity benefit, a guaranteed Death Benefit and an optional guaranteed living benefit. Because of these additional separate account expenses, which affect your contract values and the returns on your investment, you should refer only to information about returns on the Subaccount Units available through this contract, and should not refer to information about returns on these Funds that may be available through other sources.

This annuity is not a deposit of a bank or other financial institution. It is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund or other federal entity. It is subject to investment risks, including possible loss of the principal amount invested.

This prospectus does not constitute an offering in any jurisdiction where such offering may not lawfully be made. No person is authorized to make any representations in connection with this offering other than those contained in this prospectus.

You may invest your premiums in any of the Subaccounts listed below.

Summary of Contract

This Contract is an IRA

This contract is a variable annuity that must be issued as an Individual Retirement Annuity (IRA) as defined by section 408(b), 408(k) or 408A of the Tax Code. The contract itself does not provide the tax advantages typically provided by a variable annuity. The tax advantages available with this contract exist solely through the contract's qualification as an IRA.

You should read Part 8, “Tax Aspects of the Contract” for more information and consult a tax advisor about your particular circumstances. Most of the withdrawals you make before you are 59½ years old are subject to a 10% federal tax penalty on the amounts withdrawn.

VN-9


You may want to purchase ETFs through a variable annuity issued as an IRA vs. directly though the IRA for several reasons, including, but not limited to, that this annuity provides a guaranteed minimum death benefit, access to guaranteed annuitization that can provide income for life and offers an optional living benefit that can provide income for life.

Parties to the Contract

National Integrity Life Insurance Company - “We,” “our,” “us,” “the Company” and “National Integrity Life” mean National Integrity Life Insurance Company.
Owner - “You” and “your” mean the owner. This variable annuity contract is a contract between you and us. You, as the owner, have certain rights under the contract. Because this contract is an IRA, joint owners are not allowed and you may not transfer ownership.
Annuitant - You are the Annuitant, the person whose life is used to determine the Maturity Date of the contract and the amount of the annuity benefit, when elected. The Annuitant must be a natural person, and cannot be changed after the Contract Date. Joint Annuitants are not allowed until an Annuity Option is elected and will have no effect until the Annuity Date.
Beneficiary - The beneficiary is the person or persons who will receive the Death Benefit upon your death prior to the Annuity Date and upon election of Annuity Benefit, to receive any remaining payments. See Part 5, sections titled “Death Benefit,” “Selecting and Changing Your Beneficiary,” and “Maturity Date and Annuity Options.”
Custodial Account - If the contract is purchased through an established IRA custodial account, the contract owner will be considered the account, the Annuitant will generally be you as the account owner, and the account must be the beneficiary.
Covered Person - A person covered under one of the GLWB Riders. See Part 6.

Your Rights and Benefits

As the owner of the contract, you have the following rights:

To contribute, transfer and withdraw money. See Part 5.
To invest your premiums in the Investment Options. See Part 3.
To elect the optional benefits available at the time you purchase the annuity contract (for an additional cost). See Part 6.
To elect an Annuity Option. See Part 5, section titled "Maturity Date and Annuity Option."
To name one or more beneficiaries to receive the Death Benefit. See Part 5, sections titled "Death Benefit" and “Selecting and Changing Your Beneficiary.” If the owner is a custodian, the owner must name itself as the sole beneficiary.

Your rights are subject to the rules and significant limitations stated in your contract, in this prospectus and under the Tax Code.

Investment Goals and Risks

This contract allows you to accumulate money for retirement or other long-term goals. This contract is intended for long-term investing only and is not intended as a vehicle for frequent trading. Transfers among Subaccounts are strictly limited under the terms of this contract. See Part 5, section titled "Allocations and Transfers."

An investment in any of the Subaccounts carries with it certain risks, including the risk that the value of your investment will decline and you could lose money. The Subaccounts invest in ETFs (except the Fidelity VIP Government Money Market Portfolio), each of which invests primarily in either common stocks or bonds. You could lose money if one or more of the issuers of stocks or bonds held by the ETFs become financially impaired or if the market as a whole declines. There is also the inherent risk that holders of common stock generally are behind creditors and holders of preferred stock for payments in the event of the bankruptcy of a stock issuer. Holders of
VN-10


corporate bonds are subject to issuer risk as well as credit risk (the risk that the issuer will default on its payment obligations under the bond) and interest rate risk (the risk that changes in interest rates may reduce (or increase) the market value of the bond). Some of the Subaccounts invest in Funds that invest in high yield securities that are rated below investment grade, commonly referred to as “junk bonds.” High yield securities may be subject to greater levels of credit or default risk than higher-rated securities. Some of the Subaccounts also invest in securities issued by companies in foreign countries, which means that world events, such as political upheaval, financial troubles, pandemics or natural disasters, will adversely affect the value of these securities. Foreign investments are also subject to currency risk, which is the chance that the value of a foreign investment, measured in U.S. dollars, will decrease because of unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates. Some of the Subaccounts may be exposed to a greater extent to certain industries or sectors, such as the real estate sector. To the extent a Subaccount may be more exposed to a particular industry or sector, it is more susceptible to the risks associated with that industry or sector.

Shares of ETFs may trade at a discount from their net asset value in the secondary market. This risk is separate and distinct from the risk that the net asset value of the ETF shares may decrease. The amount of such discount from net asset value is subject to change from time to time in response to various factors.

For a complete discussion of the risks associated with investing in any particular Subaccount, see the prospectus of the corresponding Fund.

Account Value and Surrender Value

Your Account Value consists of the values of your Investment Options added together. Any amount allocated to a Subaccount will go up or down in value depending on the investment performance of the Fund. The value of premiums allocated to the Subaccounts is not guaranteed. Your Account Value also is subject to charges. See Part 4.

Your Surrender Value is equal to your Account Value, minus any withdrawal charge and applicable premium tax. See Part 4.

Your minimum Account Value is $5,000 if this Contract is issued in New York and $2,000 if this Contract is issued in any other state. If the Account Value goes below the minimum Account Value and we have received no premiums from you for three years if this Contract is issued in New York and two years if this Contract is issued in any other state, we may terminate the contract and pay you the Account Value. We will notify you in advance and will give you at least 60 days to contribute additional premium to bring the Account Value above the minimum if you wish to keep your contract in force. The minimum Account Value does not apply if you have a GLWB Rider.

If you take withdrawals (other than the Free Withdrawal Amount or RMD), this contract also requires that you have a minimum Account Value of $20,000 remaining after the withdrawal. (Please note that you may fully surrender your contract at any time.) This rule does not apply if you have a GLWB Rider. See Part 5, section titled “Withdrawals.”

Your Right to Revoke (Free Look Period)

You may cancel your contract within 10 days after you receive it by returning it to our Administrative Office by mail, postmarked within the 10-day period. We will extend the 10-day period if required by state law. If you cancel your contract, we will return your Account Value, which may be more or less than your original premium depending upon the investment performance of the Subaccounts you selected and any applicable charges. You bear the investment risk, as well as any fees and charges incurred, during the free look period. See Part 4 for more discussion of the fees and charges. Some states require that we return your premium, or some amount other than your Account Value. In that case, we will return the greater of the amount required by state law and your Account Value.


VN-11


Part 2 – National Integrity Life and the Separate Account
National Integrity Life Insurance Company

National Integrity Life is a stock life insurance company organized under the laws of New York on November 22, 1968. Our principal executive office is located at 400 Broadway, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202. We are authorized to sell life insurance and annuities in eight states and the District of Columbia. National Integrity Life is a subsidiary of The Western and Southern Life Insurance Company, a life insurance company organized under the laws of the State of Ohio on February 23, 1888.

National Integrity Life guarantees certain amounts under the contract. We refer to these guaranteed amounts as “insurance obligations,” such as income payments under the GLWB Rider after your Account Value is exhausted. In this case, we will pay you the income payments from our General Account. Benefit amounts paid from the General Account are subject to our financial strength and claims paying ability and our long-term ability to make such payments. There are risks to purchasing any insurance product.

The Western and Southern Life Insurance Company, National Integrity Life’s parent company, has guaranteed the insurance obligations of National Integrity Life to its contract owners, including the owners of this contract (the Guarantee). Amounts covered by the Guarantee are subject to the financial strength and claims paying ability of The Western and Southern Life Insurance Company. The Guarantee does not guarantee investment performance on the portion of your Account Value invested in the Subaccounts. The Guarantee provides that contract owners can enforce the Guarantee directly.

Separate Account I

Separate Account I of National Integrity Life Insurance Company was established in 1986, and is maintained under the insurance laws of the State of New York. The Separate Account is a unit investment trust, which is a type of investment company governed by the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act).

Under New York law, we own the assets of our Separate Account and use them to support the Subaccounts of your contract and other variable annuity contracts. You participate in the Separate Account in proportion to the amounts in your contract. National Integrity Life Insurance Company is responsible for all obligations under the contract.

Income, gains and losses, whether realized or unrealized, from assets allocated to the Separate Account are credited to or charged against the Separate Account without regard to our other income, gains or losses. The assets of the Separate Account may not be charged with the liabilities arising out of our other businesses. We may allow fees that are owed to us to stay in the Separate Account, and, in that way, we can participate proportionately in the Separate Account. We may also periodically withdraw amounts that are earned and owed to us from the Separate Account.

Subaccounts

The Separate Account is divided into Subaccounts. Each Subaccount invests in shares of a Fund with the same name. The Subaccounts available in this contract are listed in Part 3. We may add, substitute or close Subaccounts from time to time, and we may limit the amount of your investment in one or more of the Subaccounts on a nondiscriminatory basis.

Each Subaccount available in this contract (except for the Fidelity VIP Government Money Market Portfolio) invests in the shares of a distinct ETF. Each ETF available through a Subaccount is a registered investment company. ETF shares are traded throughout the day on exchanges, such as the NYSE Arca, Inc. ETF shares may trade at, above or below their net asset value; however, for purposes of valuing the Subaccount Units, we will use the daily closing price of each ETF on its primary exchange.

Each ETF available through a Subaccount in this contract seeks investment results that correspond to an index. The returns on the ETF shares will not precisely correlate with the performance of the index. You cannot invest directly in an index. You may want to purchase this variable annuity instead of one that does not invest in passively
VN-12


managed ETFs for several reasons, including, but not limited to, that the underlying fund costs are substantially lower than those of most variable annuities on the market today.

Distribution of Variable Annuity Contracts

Touchstone Securities, Inc., an affiliate of National Integrity Life, serves as the principal underwriter for our variable annuity contracts. Touchstone Securities, Inc. and National Integrity Life are under the common control of the same parent company: The Western and Southern Life Insurance Company. The principal business address of Touchstone Securities is 400 Broadway, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202. The contracts are sold by individuals who are licensed insurance agents and registered representatives of broker-dealers or financial institutions that have entered into distribution agreements with us.

ETF Custodian

Mid Atlantic Trust Company (MATC), a South Dakota registered non-depository trust company, is the custodian for the ETFs held by the Subaccounts. MATC provides certain services to the Separate Account, including custody of and accounting services for the ETFs owned by the Separate Account. MATC also facilitates execution of the purchase and sale of the ETFs through third-party broker-dealers. We pay for these services under an agreement with MATC. The third-party broker-dealers, working with MATC, provide the ETFs to the Separate Account at the daily closing price of each ETF on its primary exchange. These brokerage fees are paid by MATC.

The services of MATC and the third-party broker-dealers underlie the process supporting this variable annuity and the subaccounts’ investments. If either MATC or the third-party broker-dealers terminate or significantly modify the services provided to us, we will seek to replace those services through other providers or through other methods. If suitable replacement services are not available, we will take such other actions or make changes in how we operate as allowed by law and your annuity contract to mitigate any adverse effects on the Separate Accounts, you and us to the greatest extent reasonably possible. These actions could include working directly with broker-dealers to purchase ETFs; bringing in-house the services being provided by MATC; and/or making available index mutual funds as underlying investment options. While we believe it is highly unlikely, it is possible that under a worst-case scenario we would be required to disallow additional contributions into the contract, and that transfers could only be made into the money market subaccount (although your then-current allocations would not be affected).

Changes in How We Operate

We can change how the Company or our Separate Account operates, subject to the approval of federal or state regulators when required by the 1940 Act or other applicable laws. We will notify you if any changes result in a material change in the Funds or Investment Options. We may take one or more of the following actions:
combine the Separate Account with any other separate account we own;
transfer assets of the Separate Account to another separate account we own;
add, remove, substitute, close, change, combine or limit investment in Subaccounts or withdraw assets relating to your contract from one Subaccount and put them into another;
register or end the registration of the Separate Account under the 1940 Act;
operate our Separate Account under the direction of a committee or discharge a committee at any time (the committee may be composed of a majority of persons who are “interested persons” of National Integrity Life);
restrict or eliminate any voting rights of owners or others that affect our Separate Account;
cause one or more Subaccounts to invest in a fund other than or in addition to the Funds;
operate our Separate Account or one or more of the Subaccounts in any other form the law allows, including a form that allows us to make direct investments; we may make any legal investments we wish;
make any changes required by the 1940 Act or other federal securities laws;
make any changes necessary to maintain the status of the contracts as annuities and/or IRAs under the Tax Code; or
make other changes required under federal or state law relating to annuities.

Part 3 – Your Investment Options

You may invest your premiums in the Subaccounts, the Fixed Account, or both, subject to any restrictions described in this prospectus. If you purchase one of the GLWB Riders, your Investment Options are limited. See Part 6.

Each Subaccount invests in the shares of a distinct Fund. Each Subaccount and its corresponding Fund share the same name. The value of your Subaccount will vary with the performance of the corresponding Fund. For a full description of each Fund, see that Fund’s prospectus and SAI.

The Fund Families and the Funds

Below is a description of each ETF Fund family, iShares and The Vanguard Group, as well as the Fidelity Variable Insurance Products, which offers the Government Money Market Portfolio in this annuity, followed by a brief description of each Fund.

Static Asset Allocation Models

We may offer one or more asset allocation models in connection with your variable annuity at no extra charge. Asset allocation is the process of investing in different asset classes – such as equity funds, fixed income funds, and alternative funds – depending on your personal investment goals, tolerance for risk, and investment time
VN-16


horizon. By spreading your money among a variety of asset classes, you may be able to reduce the risk and volatility of investing, although there are no guarantees.

We have no discretionary authority or control over your choice of Subaccounts or your other investment decisions. We may make available educational information and materials, such as a risk tolerance questionnaire, that may help you select an asset allocation model, but we do not recommend asset allocation models or otherwise provide advice about whether an asset allocation model may be appropriate for you.

Our asset allocation models are "static."  Although we may change or terminate asset allocation models we are offering to new contract purchasers, we will not change your allocations unless you advise us to do so. You will not be notified if the models are terminated or changed. You will not be provided with information regarding any terminations or changes to the asset allocation models. If you elect to invest using an asset allocation model, and if you elect automatic rebalancing, we will continue to rebalance your percentage allocations among the Funds in your existing model.  

You should consult your investment professional periodically to consider whether any model you have selected is still appropriate for you. You may choose to invest in an asset allocation model or change your asset allocation at any time, subject to the limitations stated in your contract and this prospectus. See Part 5, section titled “Allocations and Transfers.”

Asset allocation does not ensure a profit, guarantee that your Account Value will increase or protect against a decline if market prices fall. An asset allocation model may not perform as intended. Any asset allocation models offered are based on then-available Funds in this annuity. We may discontinue, add, eliminate or change the models at any time.

The Fixed Account

Our Fixed Account is offered through our General Account, which also supports any portion of the Death Benefit, the annuity benefit, and any guarantees under a Rider that are in excess of Account Value. The General Account is not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or the 1940 Act. Disclosures regarding the Fixed Account and the General Account are subject to certain provisions of the federal securities laws relating to the accuracy and completeness of statements made in prospectuses.

Systematic Transfer Option (STO)
We offer a STO (a Fixed Account) that provides a fixed interest rate on each premium allocated to the STO. That interest rate is guaranteed for that premium while in the STO period selected. Available STO periods are six months or one year. All STO premiums will be automatically transferred into the Subaccounts within either six months or one year of your premium payment into the STO, depending on which STO period you select. You can invest in either the six-month or one-year STO at any one time, but not both. We require a minimum premium to the STO of $6,000 to fund the six-month STO or $12,000 to fund the one-year STO. We will automatically transfer equal amounts monthly for the six-month STO and either monthly or quarterly for the one-year STO. Once you have invested premium in a STO, it cannot be transferred from the STO except as the automatic transfers described above.

The STO is available for new premiums only. You cannot transfer from the Subaccounts into the STO. See “Systematic Transfer Program” in Part 9 for more details on this program. If you elect a GLWB Rider, the STO is only available for your initial premium received by us on or before the Contract Date.

Part 4 – Deductions and Charges

Separate Account Charges

We deduct a daily charge equal to an annual effective rate of 1.75% of your Account Value in each of the Subaccounts to cover our separate account charges, which include

mortality and expense risk charge of 1.00%; and
administration expense charge of 0.75%.
VN-17



A portion of the separate account charges pays us for assuming the mortality risk and the expense risk under the contract. The mortality risk, as used here, refers to our risk that Death Benefits are greater than anticipated, or that annuitants, as a class of persons, will live longer than estimated and we will be required to pay out more annuity benefits than anticipated. The expense risk is our risk that the expenses of administering the contract will exceed the reimbursement for administrative expenses.

The administration expense charge is used to reimburse us for administrative expenses, including, but not limited to, processing applications, issuing contracts, processing customer orders and other requests, making investments, providing regular reports and confirmations to customers, providing reports and updates to regulators, maintaining accounting records for each contract owner, administering income payments, furnishing accounting and valuation services (including the calculation and monitoring of the daily Unit Values), reconciling and depositing cash receipts, and providing forms.

The administration expense charge also reimburses us for the cost and commissions associated with investing in the underlying ETFs, including brokerage commissions. The brokerage commissions associated with the ETF trades will be paid directly by MATC to the executing broker, and indirectly by us under an arrangement with MATC. See Part 2, section titled “ETF Custodian.” This arrangement is a proprietary fee arrangement based on a percentage of assets invested in the ETFs. Ultimately, this cost is passed along to you as part of this administrative expense.

The administration expense charge may also reimburse us for the costs of distribution of this variable annuity. We expect to make a profit from the separate account charges. The separate account charges cannot be increased without your consent.

Fund Expenses

The net asset value of the Fund shares reflects investment management fees and other expenses that have already been deducted from the assets of the Funds. Please refer to Part 1, section titled “Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses,” and the individual Fund’s prospectus for details on Fund expenses.

Withdrawal Charge

If you withdraw your premiums, you may be charged a withdrawal charge of up to 7% of the premium. The amount of the withdrawal charge is a percentage of each premium withdrawn and not of the Account Value. The charge varies, depending upon the "age" of the premiums included in the withdrawal. The “age” of a premium is the number of years that have passed since each premium was paid.
Premium
Year
Charge as a Percentage of the Premium Withdrawn
17%
27%
36%
45%
54%
thereafter
0

When you take a withdrawal, the oldest premium is treated as the first withdrawn, then next oldest and so on. Any gain or earnings in your contract come out only after an amount equal to all your premiums, and any applicable charges on those premiums, is withdrawn. Please note, however, that for tax purposes, withdrawals are generally considered to be gain first. See Part 8.

Because the withdrawal charge applies to each premium, if your Account Value has declined due to poor performance of your selected Subaccounts or you have taken previous withdrawals, including the Free Withdrawal Amount, the withdrawal charge may be greater than the amount available for withdrawal. In some instances, your Account Value may be positive, but you will not have money available to withdraw due to the amount of the
VN-18


withdrawal charge still applicable to your premiums. A withdrawal charge applies to the withdrawal charge amount itself since this amount is part of the premium withdrawn.

You may take your Free Withdrawal Amount each Contract Year without paying a withdrawal charge. More details on the Free Withdrawal Amount are in Part 5, in the section titled "Free Withdrawal Amount."

We will not deduct a withdrawal charge from:
the Death Benefit; or
a withdrawal used to buy an immediate annuity from us after the first Contract Anniversary with either: (i) life contingencies; or (ii) a period certain that provides for fixed payments over 10 or more years.

If you take withdrawals (other than the Free Withdrawal Amount or RMD), this contract also requires that you have a minimum Account Value of $20,000 remaining after the withdrawal. (Please note that you may fully surrender your contract at any time.) This rule does not apply if you have a GLWB Rider. See Part 5, section titled “Withdrawals.”

For more information and examples of application of the withdrawal charge, see Appendix B.

Reduction or Elimination of the Withdrawal Charge

We can reduce or eliminate the withdrawal charge for individuals or a group of individuals if we anticipate expense savings. We may do this based on the size and type of the group, the amount of the premium, or whether there is some relationship with us. Examples of these relationships would include being an employee of National Integrity Life or an affiliate, receiving distributions or making internal transfers from other contracts we issued, or transferring amounts held under qualified plans that we, or our affiliates, sponsored. We will not unlawfully discriminate against any person or group if we reduce or eliminate the withdrawal charge.

Commission Allowance and Additional Payments to Distributors

We generally pay a commission to the sales representative equal to a maximum of 6% of premiums, and up to 0.70% trail commission paid on Account Value starting in the second Contract Year. Commissions may vary due to differences between states, sales channels, sales firms and special sales initiatives.

A broker-dealer or financial institution that distributes our variable annuity contracts may receive additional compensation from us for training, marketing or other services provided. These services may include special access to sales staff and advantageous placement of our products. We do not make an independent assessment of the cost to the broker-dealer or financial institution of providing such services.

National Integrity Life has agreements with some broker-dealer firms under which we pay varying amounts, but no more than 0.25% of Account Value, for enhanced access to their registered representatives. This payment to broker-dealer firms is separate from and in addition to brokerage commissions paid to our distributors from your Distribution Charge. The broker-dealer firms are American Portfolios Financial Services, Inc., BBVA Securities, Inc., BOK Financial Securities, Inc., Cadaret, Grant & Co., Inc., Cetera Investment Services LLC, Commerce Brokerage Services, Inc., CUNA Mutual Insurance Agency, CUSO Financial Services, LP, Fifth Third Securities, Inc., Frost Brokerage Services, Inc., Hancock Investment Services, Inc., Huntington Securities, Inc., Infinex Investments, Inc., LPL Financial LLC, M&T Securities, Inc., PNC Investments LLC, and US Bancorp Investments, Inc.

Depending on the arrangements in place at any particular time, a broker-dealer, and the registered representatives associated with it, may have a financial incentive to recommend a particular variable annuity contract. This could create a conflict of interest between the broker-dealer or the registered representative and the customer. These payments could provide incentive to a broker-dealer or registered representative to recommend a Contract that is not in your best interest. You can find more about compensation in the SAI.

Optional Benefit Charges

You may purchase one of the GLWB Riders offered with this contract, which provide optional benefits for an additional cost. The additional cost of the Riders, along with complete details about their benefits, is provided in Part 6.
VN-19



Tax Reserve

In the future, we may charge for taxes or set aside reserves for taxes, which will reduce the investment performance of the Subaccounts.

State Premium Tax

We will not deduct state premium taxes from your premiums before investing them in the Investment Options, unless required by your state law. If you elect an Annuity Option, we will deduct any applicable state premium taxes from the amount available for the Annuity Option. State premium taxes currently range from 0 to 1.0% for IRAs.

Part 5 – Terms of Your Variable Annuity

Purchasing the Contract

If you wish to purchase a contract, you must apply for it through an authorized sales representative. The sales representative will send your completed application to us, and we will decide whether to accept or reject it. If we accept your application, we will issue a contract and send it to you either directly or through your sales representative.

To apply for a contract, you must be of legal age to enter into a contractual relationship under applicable state law, generally 18 years old. You must be no older than 80 at the time of application.

This contract must be issued as an IRA. Subject to various rules and limitations, the Tax Code permits you to transfer or roll over money tax-free from one IRA to another IRA or from certain other qualified plans, such as a 401(k) plan, to an IRA. See Part 8.

If you are transferring money from another annuity contract that is an IRA to acquire this contract, you should carefully compare this contract to your current contract. You may have to pay a withdrawal charge under your current contract to transfer to this contract, and this contract has its own withdrawal charges that would apply to you. The other fees and charges under this contract may be higher (or lower), and the benefits may be different, than those of your current contract. In addition, you may have to pay federal income and penalty taxes on the transfer if it does not qualify for tax-free transfer or rollover treatment. You should not transfer from another annuity contract unless you determine that the transfer is right for you. Please note that the person who sells you this contract generally will earn a commission on the sale. You should also consult a tax advisor before requesting a tax-free transfer or rollover.

Premium Payments
Minimum initial premium
$25,000
Minimum additional premium
$1,000
Maximum total premium without prior approval
$1,000,000
Maximum additional premium
up to applicable IRA limits each calendar year plus permissible transfers and rollovers


 
Because the initial premium must be $25,000 or more, the contract can only be purchased by transfer or rollover from an existing IRA or from certain other qualified plans, such as a 401(k) or a 403(b) plan. You can make additional premium payments at any time before age 81, or earlier if limited by the Tax Code. For example, you cannot contribute new premiums other than transfers and rollovers to a traditional IRA for the calendar year in which you reach the qualified age under IRS regulations (for an owner that reached age 70½ on or before December 31, 2019, age 70½, and for an owner that reaches age 70½ on or after January 1, 2020, age 72), and thereafter.
 
 
You must determine whether any premium qualifies as a permissible contribution subject to favorable tax treatment under the Tax Code. You must also determine whether such amount qualifies as a permissible transfer or rollover contribution under the Tax Code. For example, you cannot roll over from a SIMPLE IRA during the first two years of
VN-20


participation in the SIMPLE IRA and a roll over of an after-tax contribution that had been made to a Roth IRA may be a taxable event. You cannot roll over distributions from an existing IRA or from certain other qualified plans that are part of a series of substantially equal payments made over your life expectancy, distributions made for a specified period of 10 years or more, RMD distributions or hardship distribution. For more information about limitations, see Part 8, section titled “Rollovers and Transfers.”

If you transfer or roll over money into this contract in the calendar year on or after you reach the qualified age under IRS regulations, you must take your RMD for the current calendar year before you purchase this contract.

We may refuse additional premiums if: (1) you have allocated some or all of the premium to an Investment Option, to which we are no longer accepting additional premiums; (2) the additional premium does not meet our minimum additional premium amount or exceeds our maximum premium amount for the annuity contract or for a specific Investment Option; (3) the total premiums paid under all annuity contracts issued by us, or our affiliates, on your life exceed $1,000,000; (4) we believe that the additional premium is being made by or on behalf of an institutional investor; or (5) for any reason allowed by law. You cannot purchase this contract with a rollover or transfer of death benefits from another annuity.

Your premiums are invested in the Investment Options you select. Each premium is credited as of the date we receive the premium in Good Order at our Administrative Office, except that additional time is allowed for the application of the initial premium under Rule 22c-1 of the 1940 Act. Good Order means complete information we require to process your application or any request.

Initial premium allocated to the subaccounts will be priced at the unit value determined no later than two business days after receipt of a completed application (including all necessary related information).  If the application is not complete, we may retain the initial premium for up to five business days while attempting to complete it.  If the application is not completed within five business days, you will be informed of the reason for the delay.  The initial premium will be returned unless you specifically allow us to hold the premium until the application is completed.

Once received in Good Order, premiums allocated to Subaccounts are used to purchase Units at the Unit Value as of the next close of the New York Stock Exchange.

Each additional premium will be credited to your Subaccount under your stated allocation as of the date we have received the premium in Good Order at our Administrative Office. If you submit a different allocation, a 60-day waiting period will start before you can make a subsequent transfer or allocation change. See Part 5, section titled "Allocations and Transfers."

All premiums are deemed received when they are received in Good Order at our Administrative Office.

Units in Our Separate Account

Your investment in the Subaccounts is used to purchase Units. On any given day, the value you have in a Subaccount is the number of Units you own in that Subaccount multiplied by the Unit Value. The Units of each Subaccount have a different Unit Value.

Units are purchased when you contribute new premium to your contract or transfer amounts to a Subaccount. Units are redeemed (sold) when you make withdrawals or transfer amounts out of a Subaccount into a different Subaccount. We also redeem Units to pay the Death Benefit or if you elect an Annuity Option, or as permitted or required by law. The number of Units purchased or redeemed in any Subaccount is calculated by dividing the dollar amount of the transaction by the next computed Unit Value for that Subaccount, calculated as of the next close of business of the New York Stock Exchange.

Each Unit represents a fractional undivided interest in the assets held in the related Subaccount. If Units of any Subaccount are redeemed, the fractional undivided interest represented by each remaining Unit will be increased. If additional Units are issued by any Subaccount, the fractional undivided interest represented by each remaining Unit will be decreased. Units will remain outstanding until redeemed by a contract owner.

VN-21


If we make a mistake in executing any purchase or redemption, we will reprocess, if necessary, any trades made in error and ensure that you receive the correct Unit Values. We will put you in the same position you otherwise would have been in. Depending on the change in Unit Values between the error and correction, we may experience a gain or loss as a result of any reprocessing.

The Unit Value of each Subaccount will fluctuate with the investment performance of the corresponding Fund, which reflects the investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Fund, and the Fund’s expenses.

How We Determine Unit Value

We determine the Unit Value for each Subaccount after the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, which is normally 4 p.m. Eastern Time on each Business Day. To value your Subaccount Units invested in ETFs, we use the daily closing price of each ETF on its primary exchange. Note that the ETF shares may trade at a discount from the net asset value of the ETF. To value your Subaccount Units invested in the Fidelity VIP Government Money Market Portfolio, we use the daily net asset value provided by Fidelity for the VIP Government Money Market Portfolio. In addition to the Fund shares, the Subaccounts that invest in the ETFs also hold an accrual for any dividends or other distributions declared by the ETF, which will be reinvested in the ETF on the next Business Day after payment.

The Unit Value of each Subaccount for any Business Day is equal to the Unit Value for the previous Business Day, multiplied by the net investment factor for that Subaccount on the current Business Day. The net investment factor measures the investment performance of a Subaccount from one Business Day to the next.

We determine the net investment factor by dividing the net asset value of the Subaccount for that valuation period by the net asset value of the Subaccount for the preceding valuation period. We subtract from that result the daily equivalent of the annual separate account charges for each calendar day since the last day that a Unit Value was determined (for example, a Monday calculation will include charges for Saturday and Sunday).

Generally, this means that we adjust Unit Values to reflect the change in value of the Fund shares, for the separate account charges and, if elected, the GLWB Rider charge.

Allocations and Transfers

Only one investment allocation to the Subaccounts may be in place at any time on your contract. This allocation applies to your current investment, future premiums, and rebalancing. In addition to your one allocation to the Subaccounts, you may allocate some or all of your initial premium and additional new premium to the STO. Transfers from the STO to the Subaccounts must be according to your one investment allocation to the Subaccounts.

You may reallocate all or part of your Account Value among the Subaccounts; however, each reallocation triggers a 60-day waiting period before you can make another allocation change. A transfer between or among Subaccounts is an “allocation change.” Here are the details:

A 60-day waiting period applies after your initial allocation on the Contract Date. This means you must wait 60 days after the contract is issued before you make an allocation change.
A 60-day waiting period applies after any voluntary allocation change. This means you must wait 60 days after the date you make an allocation change before you make another allocation change.
The following allocation changes will not trigger the 60-day waiting period:
automatic rebalancing;
automatic transfers from the STO;
reallocation as a result of any material change in a Fund or a Subaccount (see Part 2, section titled “Changes in How We Operate”);
automatic transfers that take place upon cancellation of a GLWB Rider, unless you make additional voluntary allocation changes in connection with the GLWB Rider cancellation.

Allocations and transfers are restricted further if you have a GLWB Rider. See Part 6.
VN-22



To request a reallocation, you may write to our Administrative Office at the address in the Glossary. Mail sent to any other address may not be in Good Order. You may also contact your sales representative to request a reallocation. Each request for a reallocation or transfer must specify:
the contract number; and
the Subaccounts and allocation percentages stated in whole percentages.

If one portion of a reallocation request involving multiple Subaccounts violates our policies or is not in Good Order, the entire request will not be processed. You will need to resubmit a request that is in Good Order for your reallocation to be processed.

You may also request a reallocation through our telephone transfer service using your personal identifiers. We will honor telephone instructions from any person who provides correct identifying information. We are not responsible for fraudulent telephone requests we believe to be genuine according to these procedures. Accordingly, you bear the risk of loss if unauthorized persons make reallocations on your behalf. Telephone reallocations may be requested from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on any day we are open for business. We do not guarantee that we will be able to accept transaction instructions via telephone at all times, and we reserve the right to limit, restrict or terminate telephonic transaction privileges at any time.

If we receive your request in Good Order at our Administrative Office before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (normally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on a Business Day, you will receive the Unit Values for the Subaccounts as of the close of business on the day you call.

Requests received at our Administrative Office at or after the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (normally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on a Business Day, or received on a day other than a Business Day, will be processed using Unit Values as of the close of business on the next Business Day. We will confirm all reallocations in writing.

Detrimental Effect of Trading on Unit Values

This contract is intended for long-term investing only and is not intended as a vehicle for frequent trading. Reallocations (transfers) among Subaccounts are strictly limited under the terms of this contract. See Part 5, section titled "Allocations and Transfers." We may refuse any reallocation request for an owner or certain owners if we believe, in our sole discretion, that a specific request or group of requests may have a detrimental effect on Unit Values. We will notify you or your designated representative if your requested reallocation is not made.

Specific Notice Regarding the Use of this Annuity for Market Timing or Frequent Trading

This contract is not designed to serve as a vehicle for trading in response to short-term fluctuations in the market. You cannot engage in intra-day trading of the ETFs available through the Subaccounts. Any person that intends to engage in stale price arbitrage, utilize market timing practices or make frequent transfers for any reason should not purchase this contract.

If we determine, in our sole discretion, that a contract owner is attempting to engage in improper trading, we may revoke their same-day reallocation/transfer privileges and require their trades to be submitted via U.S. Mail or overnight delivery service. We may reject transactions made in violation of our market timing policies. We may modify these restrictions at any time in our sole discretion.

Withdrawals

You may make withdrawals as often as you wish, subject to the following rules:
Each withdrawal must be at least $250.
Your Account Value remaining after a partial withdrawal, including any withdrawal charge, must be at least $20,000. (Please note that you may fully surrender your contract at any time.) This rule does not apply to a withdrawal of your Free Withdrawal Amount, your RMD, or if you have a GLWB Rider.

VN-23


Unless you request a withdrawal from a specific Investment Option, we will take the withdrawal from your Investment Options, pro rata, in the same proportion their value bears to your total Account Value. For example, if your Account Value is divided in equal 25% portions among four Subaccounts, when you make a withdrawal, 25% of the withdrawal will come from each of your four Subaccounts.

Withdrawals are processed when a request is received in Good Order at our Administrative Office. When you take a withdrawal from a Subaccount, Units are redeemed at the Unit Value as of the next close of the New York Stock Exchange.

The total amount deducted from your Account Value will be the withdrawal amount requested, plus any withdrawal charge that applies (see Part 4, section titled "Withdrawal Charge"). The amount you receive will be the amount you requested, less any applicable tax withholding. Withdrawals are handled differently if you elect a GLWB Rider. See Part 6.

Withdrawals are attributed to your Account Value in the following order: (1) any remaining Free Withdrawal Amount; (2) premiums that are no longer subject to a withdrawal charge and have not yet been withdrawn; (3) premiums subject to a withdrawal charge; and (4) any gain, interest, or other amount that is not considered a premium. Your investment comes out first, beginning with the oldest premium first, then next oldest and so on. Any gain or earnings in your contract come out only after an amount equal to all premiums, and any applicable charges on those premiums, are withdrawn. Please note, however, that for tax purposes, withdrawals prior to the annuity starting date are considered to be gain first. See Part 8.

Your financial professional or a third party may have offered you asset allocation or investment advisory services for your contract. Fees you pay for such investment advisory services are in addition to any contract charges. While we no longer accept these arrangements, if you already have them in place the payments are withdrawals from your Account Value and will be subject to any applicable withdrawal charge. We will withdraw the requested payment according to the third party's instructions (including instructions about which Subaccounts to withdraw the fee from) and send you a confirmation of the transaction. We will not verify the accuracy of the amount being requested.

Examples of withdrawals and the application of a withdrawal charge are located in Appendix B.

Additional restrictions apply to withdrawals if you have a GLWB Rider. See Part 6.

Your Death Benefit is reduced by withdrawals on a proportional basis. See Part 5, section titled "Death Benefit."

Most of the withdrawals you make before you are 59½ years old are subject to a 10% federal tax penalty. See Part 8.

Free Withdrawal Amount

You may take your Free Withdrawal Amount each Contract Year without paying a withdrawal charge. The Free Withdrawal Amount is the greater of:
10% of your Account Value on the date of the withdrawal, minus any partial withdrawals taken during the current Contract Year; or
10% of your Account Value at your most recent Contract Anniversary, minus any partial withdrawals taken during the current Contract Year. (During your first Contract Year, this amount is 10% of your initial premium received on the Contract Date.)

If your RMD (based on the fair market value of this contract only as calculated by us) is greater than your Free Withdrawal Amount, we will allow you to take the RMD as your Free Withdrawal Amount, but only once each Contract Year. Because your RMD is based on a calendar year, you should plan in advance to coordinate your RMD with your available Free Withdrawal Amount.

If you do not take the Free Withdrawal Amount in any one Contract Year, you cannot add it, or any unused portion of it, to the next year’s Free Withdrawal Amount.

VN-24


The Free Withdrawal Amount does not apply to a full surrender. Taking your Free Withdrawal Amount will not reduce the total withdrawal charge applicable to your premium. If you take a subsequent withdrawal for more than the Free Withdrawal Amount or if you surrender the contract, we will assess any applicable withdrawal charge on the amount of your premiums withdrawn, which are not reduced for any Free Withdrawal Amount you have taken.

The Free Withdrawal Amount is available for withdrawal only. The Free Withdrawal Amount is not available for transfer to another IRA or other qualified contract or account.

Timing of Payment of a Withdrawal or Surrender

We normally send you partial or full withdrawals (or apply your Account Value to the purchase of an Annuity Option) within seven days after receipt of the required form at our Administrative Office. However, we can defer our action for any period during which:

(1)the New York Stock Exchange has been closed, other than a weekend or holiday, or trading on it is restricted;

(2)an emergency exists as determined by the SEC so that disposal of securities is not reasonably practicable or it is not reasonably practicable for the Separate Account fairly to determine the value of its net assets; or

(3)the SEC, by order, permits us to defer action in order to protect persons with interests in the Separate Account.

Assignments

This contract is an IRA and you are not legally permitted to assign, pledge or otherwise transfer the contract. Pledging or assigning an IRA can cause loss of qualified status and result in some or all of the Account Value being included in your income. A 10% federal tax penalty also may apply.

Death Benefit

We will pay the Death Benefit to your properly designated beneficiary if you die before the Annuity Date.

The Death Benefit amount will be the greater of:
1.the Account Value on the Death Benefit Date; and
2.your total premiums minus proportionate adjustments for partial withdrawals, including any withdrawal charge. A proportional adjustment means that your Death Benefit will be reduced by the same percentage as your withdrawal bears to your Account Value at the time of withdrawal.

Example of the effect of withdrawals on the Death Benefit:
if your Death Benefit is $100,000 and your current Account Value is $80,000,
and you take a withdrawal of $10,000,
we will reduce your Death Benefit by 12.5% because that is the same percentage that your withdrawal bears to the Account Value at the time of the withdrawal
        ($10,000 / $80,000);
therefore, your Death Benefit is reduced by $12,500.

Because the Account Value at the time of the withdrawal in this example is less than the Death Benefit, the Death Benefit is decreased by a larger dollar amount than the partial withdrawal amount.

This example is for illustrative purposes only and does not predict results.

Your beneficiary generally has a choice of how to receive the Death Benefit.

1.The beneficiary may take a lump sum. If the beneficiary elects this option, we will pay the Death Benefit to the beneficiary.

VN-25


2.The beneficiary may defer for up to five years. If the beneficiary elects this option, we will allow the beneficiary to keep the Death Benefit invested in the available Subaccounts for a period of up to five years. Separate account charges will continue to apply. At the end of five years, the entire amount must be paid to the beneficiary.

3.The beneficiary may treat the contract as an inherited IRA. If the beneficiary elects this option, we will allow the beneficiary to keep the Death Benefit amount invested in the available Subaccounts. Separate account charges will continue to apply. The beneficiary must choose to receive the Death Benefit as either:

a)    an immediate annuity with a life contingency; or
b)    substantially equal payments over his or her life expectancy or other payout period as defined by the Tax Code. Certain beneficiaries may choose the longer of his or her life expectancy or the deceased owner’s life expectancy (both as defined by the Tax Code) if the owner dies after the Required Beginning Date; for other beneficiaries, the payout period may be limited to 5 or 10 years. (For Roth IRAs, the owner is presumed to have died before the Required Beginning Date.)

Distributions must begin by December 31 of the calendar year after the owner’s death; however if the beneficiary is your spouse and has elected this option, distributions may begin at the end of the calendar year in which the owner would have reached the qualified age under IRS regulations, if later. A spouse also may elect to continue the contract as described below in the section titled “Spousal Continuation.” If the beneficiary fails to make an election within a reasonable time, we may automatically process the claim as if option two were elected.

The following restrictions apply to the inherited IRA contract: (i) the inherited IRA owner may not add premium to the contract; (ii) the Death Benefit available to the beneficiary of the inherited IRA owner is the Account Value on the Death Benefit Date after the death of the inherited IRA owner; and (iii) the beneficiary of the inherited IRA owner will be required to receive the remaining Account Value either in a lump sum, over five or ten years or over the life expectancy of the inherited IRA owner as determined by the Tax Code.

For more information on inherited IRAs, see Part 8, section titled “Inherited IRAs” and IRS Publication 590. You should seek independent tax advice.

If your beneficiary is not a human being, the beneficiary must elect either a lump sum or deferral for up to five years. If the owner is a trust, custodian or other entity, the owner must name itself as the sole beneficiary.

Spousal Continuation

If your sole primary beneficiary is your spouse, the contract may be continued in your spouse’s name as the owner. If spousal continuation is elected, we will increase the continued contract’s Account Value to the same amount that would have been paid to your surviving spouse had he or she taken the Death Benefit as a lump sum distribution. This increase will be added to the Subaccounts you have selected on a pro rata basis. For example, if the Account Value at death was $100,000, but we would have paid out a Death Benefit of $115,000, the surviving spouse’s contract will continue with $115,000 as the Account Value.

All terms and conditions of the contract continue to apply including the withdrawal charge. When the surviving spouse dies, the Death Benefit will be paid to the beneficiary named by the surviving spouse.

A same-sex surviving spouse is recognized as your spouse under the Tax Code and will qualify for the federal tax advantages of spousal continuation.

The survivor of a civil union or domestic partnership is not recognized as your spouse under the Tax Code and the federal tax advantages of spousal continuation are not available. The survivor of a civil union or domestic partnership may elect to continue the contract under its terms. The continuation of the contract by such surviving civil union or domestic partner, however, is treated as an ordinary transfer of ownership and will be a taxable event.

VN-26


Selecting and Changing Your Beneficiary

You may name one or more beneficiaries as primary or contingent beneficiaries. The Death Benefit will be paid to your primary beneficiaries who are alive at the time of your death. If no primary beneficiary survives your death, then the Death Benefit will be paid to your contingent beneficiaries, if any. If no beneficiary survives your death (primary or contingent) or none has been named, the Death Benefit will be paid to your estate.

If multiple beneficiaries in either category (primary or contingent) are named, the Death Benefit will be split into equal shares among the beneficiaries in that category who are alive at the time of your death, unless you specify otherwise in your beneficiary designation.

If you die on or after the Annuity Date and before the entire interest in the contract has been distributed, then the rest of the annuity must be distributed to the beneficiary at least as quickly as the method in effect when you died.

You may change any beneficiary by sending the appropriate form in Good Order to the Administrative Office. We may limit the number of beneficiaries you can have at one time. Please consult your financial professional and tax advisor to properly identify your beneficiaries so that the Death Benefit is paid as you intend. Please be sure to name your spouse as your sole primary beneficiary so that spousal continuation of the contract can occur, if that is your intention. You may wish to name a contingent beneficiary in case your spouse dies before you. If the owner is a custodian, the owner must name itself as the sole beneficiary.

Filing Death Claims

To file a death claim, the beneficiary must promptly submit an original certified death certificate and company death claim paperwork that is in Good Order, including the beneficiary's election of how they wish to receive the Death Benefit proceeds. On the date we first receive notice of the owner’s death, we will stop all pending automatic transactions including rebalancing and systematic withdrawals; however, any money in the STO will be transferred to the Subaccounts according to the owner’s allocation.

During the period from the date of death until we receive all required paperwork in Good Order, the Account Value will remain invested in the Subaccounts as allocated by you at the time of your death. As a result, the Account Value continues to reflect the investment performance of the Subaccounts during this period and will be subject to market fluctuations. Separate account charges will continue to apply.

If there are multiple beneficiaries, after one beneficiary submits death claim paperwork, the Death Benefit will be calculated and the first beneficiary will receive payment according to his or her election. The remaining beneficiaries’ share of the Death Benefit will be invested in the Subaccounts as allocated by you at the time of your death and subject to market fluctuations.

Maturity Date and Annuity Option

Your Annuity Option is available anytime on or after your first Contract Anniversary until the Maturity Date. You may elect your Annuity Option by writing to the Administrative Office any time on or after your first Contract Anniversary and before the Maturity Date. Upon the Maturity Date, you may elect to receive a lump sum of your Account Value, or you may elect an Annuity Option.

An Annuity Option can provide for fixed payments, which may be made monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually. For any annuity, the minimum payment must be at least $100. If the minimum monthly payment under a guaranteed Annuity Option would be less than $20, we will pay you a lump sum of your Account Value instead. All Annuity Options are funded through our General Account.

The amount applied toward the purchase of a guaranteed Annuity Option under the contract will be the Account Value less any premium tax. The guaranteed Annuity Options are single life and ten years certain or joint life and ten years certain. These options provide a fixed life income annuity with 10 years of payments guaranteed.

We will also use the Account Value less any premium tax to determine your annuity payments if you select a nonguaranteed Annuity Option with either (i) life contingencies, or (ii) a period certain that provides for fixed
VN-27


payments over ten or more years. If you select any other nonguaranteed Annuity Option, the amount applied to determine your annuity payments will be the Surrender Value, or if this Contract is issued in New York, the amount applied to determine your annuity payments under (ii) above will be the greater of the Surrender Value or 95% of your Account Value.

We currently offer additional Annuity Options listed below; however, we may eliminate or change the non-guaranteed options available at any time:

period-certain annuity, which provides for fixed payments for a fixed period. The fixed periods available may vary from time to time and the fixed period selected may not extend past your life expectancy. The amount is determined by the period you select. If the Annuitant dies before the end of the period selected, the beneficiary will receive the remaining periodic payments.
period-certain life annuity, which provides for fixed payments for at least the period selected and after that for the life of the Annuitant or the lives of the Annuitant and any joint Annuitant under a joint and survivor annuity. The fixed periods available may vary from time to time. If the Annuitant (or the Annuitant and the joint Annuitant under a joint and survivor annuity) dies before the fixed period selected ends, the remaining payments in the fixed period will go to the beneficiary.
life only annuity, which provides fixed payments for the life of the Annuitant, or until the Annuitant and joint Annuitant both die under a joint and survivor annuity. Once the Annuitant (or last joint Annuitant) dies, no further payments will be made and no value remains for any beneficiaries.

If you have not already selected a form of Annuity Option, we will contact you prior to your Maturity Date. You can tell us at that time if you would like a lump sum payment, or select the type of annuity you want. If we do not receive your election on or before your Maturity Date, you will automatically receive the single life and ten-year certain Annuity Option guaranteed under the contract.

Annuity Payments

Once payments begin under an Annuity Option, payments will not change. The size of payments will depend on the amount applied to the Annuity Option, the form of Annuity Option you chose and, in the case of an Annuity Option with life contingencies, on the Annuitant's age and sex (where permissible).

If the age or sex of an Annuitant has been misstated, you will receive the benefits that would have been purchased at the correct age and gender. Any overpayments or underpayments made by us will not be charged or credited with interest, unless required by your state. If we have made overpayments because of incorrect information about age or gender, we will deduct the overpayment from the next payment or payments due. We add underpayments to the next payment.

How You Make Requests and Give Instructions

When you write to our Administrative Office, use the address listed in the Glossary of this prospectus. We cannot honor your requests unless they are in proper and complete form. Whenever possible, use one of our printed forms, which may be obtained from our Administrative Office.

Abandoned or Unclaimed Property

Every state has laws that generally provide for payment to the state of unclaimed property, including proceeds of annuity contracts, under various circumstances.  This is called escheatment.  In addition to the state unclaimed property laws, we may be required to escheat property pursuant to regulatory demand, finding, agreement or settlement. To help prevent escheatment, it is important that you keep your contact information on file with us up to date, including the names, addresses, phone numbers, social security numbers and dates of birth for owners, annuitants, beneficiaries and other payees.  Such updates must be communicated in Good Order to our Administrative Office.



VN-28


Part 6 – Optional Benefits

You may purchase one of the optional GLWB Riders offered with this contract, which provides additional benefits for an additional charge. You may only elect a Rider at the time of application. Benefits under a Rider will replace or supplement the standard contract benefits. Charges for an optional benefit Rider are in addition to the standard contract charges. Be sure you understand the charges. Carefully consider whether you need the benefit and whether it is appropriate for your particular circumstances. Also consider whether you can buy the benefit more cheaply as part of the variable annuity or with a separate contract.

Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit

Each Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit (GLWB) is an optional Rider you may purchase for an additional charge. You may select the Individual GLWB Rider or the Spousal GLWB Rider.

The GLWB Rider guarantees lifetime payments for you (or you and your covered spouse if you elect the Spousal GLWB Rider) regardless of how your investments perform, as long as the Rider is in effect. You are the covered person under the Individual GLWB Rider. You and your spouse are the covered persons under the Spousal GLWB Rider. If you take Nonguaranteed Withdrawals, as explained below, your Benefit Base will decrease immediately, your lifetime payments may decrease and the Rider may terminate.

Lifetime Payout Amount (LPA)
The LPA is the amount we guarantee you can receive each calendar year for your lifetime (or for as long as either you or your covered spouse is alive if you elect the Spousal GLWB Rider). You are eligible to begin receiving your LPA on the LPA Eligibility Date.

For the Individual GLWB Rider, the LPA Eligibility Date is the earlier of the following:
January 1st after the calendar year in which you turn age 60 (if you turn age 60 on January 1st, your LPA will be available beginning on that day); or
the Contract Date, if you are age 60 or older at the time you purchase your contract. The LPA available during the calendar year in which you purchase your contract will be prorated for the portion of the calendar year remaining.

For the Spousal GLWB Rider, the LPA Eligibility Date is the earlier of the following:
January 1st after the calendar year in which the younger of you or your spouse turns age 60 (if the younger of you or your spouse turns age 60 on January 1st, your LPA will be available beginning on that day); or
the Contract Date, if the younger of you or your spouse is age 60 or older at the time you purchase your contract. The LPA available during the calendar year in which you purchase your contract will be prorated for the portion of the calendar year remaining.

The LPA is equal to the applicable Withdrawal Percentage multiplied by the Benefit Base on January 1st each year on or after the LPA Eligibility Date. For the Spousal GLWB Rider, that amount is then multiplied by 90% (this 90% is called the Spousal Factor).

Withdrawal Percentage - The applicable Withdrawal Percentage is determined by the following formula:

A + B + C, where:

(A)is the Age Based Percentage stated on the chart below:
Age*Age Based Percentage
60-644.00%
65-694.50%
70-745.00%
75 and above5.50%

VN-29


*The Age Based Percentage is determined by your age (or the age of the younger of you or your spouse if you have elected the Spousal GLWB Rider). The Age Based Percentage is locked in on the date of the first withdrawal from the contract on or after the LPA Eligibility Date.

(B)is the cumulative Deferral Percentage. The cumulative Deferral Percentage begins at zero and increases by 0.10% for each complete calendar year that you do not take a withdrawal.

(C)is a First-Year Deferral Percentage stated on the chart below:
Contract DateFirst-Year Deferral Percentage
January 1-March 310.075%
April 1-June 300.050%
July 1-September 300.025%
October 1-December 310.000%

The First-Year Deferral Percentage is a one time addition to your Withdrawal Percentage that varies based on your Contract Date, provided you do not take a withdrawal in the calendar year containing the Contract Date.

Benefit Base - Your initial Benefit Base is equal to your initial premium received by us on the Contract Date. Your Benefit Base will be adjusted as follows:

1.On each Contract Anniversary, your Benefit Base will be compared to your Account Value and if the Account Value is greater than the Benefit Base, we will step up your Benefit Base to equal the Account Value.
2.If you take a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal, we will immediately decrease your Benefit Base as described in the section titled “Nonguaranteed Withdrawal” below.
3.On the date we receive an additional premium during the first Contract Year, we will immediately increase your Benefit Base by the amount of the additional premium. Additional premiums received after the first Contract Year will not increase your Benefit Base. They will, however, increase the Account Value, which is used to determine if a step up applies on the next Contract Anniversary.

The Benefit Base is used only to calculate the LPA and Rider charge. The Benefit Base is not available for withdrawal or payable as a death benefit.

If you (or the younger of you and your spouse if you have elected the Spousal GLWB Rider) have reached the LPA Eligibility Date on the Contract Date, your LPA for the calendar year that contains the Contract Date will be prorated for the portion of the calendar year remaining. The factor used to prorate the LPA is the number of days remaining in the calendar year (not including the Contract Date) divided by the number of days in the calendar year.

If you withdraw less than the LPA in any calendar year, you cannot carry over or add the remaining LPA to withdrawals made in future years.

If your RMD is greater than the LPA for any calendar year, the LPA will be set equal to the RMD for that calendar year as long as calendar year withdrawals are limited to the RMD.

Nonguaranteed Withdrawal
Before your LPA Eligibility Date, a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal is the total amount of any withdrawal, including any withdrawal charge.

On or after your LPA Eligibility Date, a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal is all or a portion of any withdrawal, including any withdrawal charge, that, when combined with your total withdrawals for that calendar year, exceeds your LPA.

If you take a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal, your Benefit Base will immediately decrease by the adjusted Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount. The adjusted Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount is defined as the Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount multiplied by the greater of 1.0 and the ratio of Benefit Base to Account Value (Benefit Base divided by Account Value), where both values are determined immediately before the Nonguaranteed
VN-30


Withdrawal. The Account Value immediately before the Nonguaranteed Withdrawal means that the Account Value will be reduced by any remaining LPA prior to the calculation.
Taking Nonguaranteed Withdrawals could reduce your future benefits by more than the dollar amount of the Nonguaranteed Withdrawals.

The example below demonstrates how a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal affects the Benefit Base, using the following assumptions:

Individual GLWB in effect
Benefit Base = $100,000
Account Value = $85,000
LPA = $5,000
One withdrawal is taken during the calendar year = $7,000
Withdrawal taken after LPA Eligibility Date
No withdrawal charge applies.

The Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount is $2,000, which is equal to your total calendar year withdrawals ($7,000) minus your LPA ($5,000). The adjusted Nonguaranteed Withdrawal is $2,500:

$2,500 = $2,000 (Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount) x the greater of 1.0 or [$100,000 (Benefit Base immediately before the Nonguaranteed Withdrawal) / $80,000 (Account Value immediately before the Nonguaranteed Withdrawal)]

Your Benefit Base will be reduced by $2,500 to $97,500.

Other Important Facts about Withdrawals

You will not receive the intended benefit of this Rider if you take Nonguaranteed Withdrawals. Nonguaranteed Withdrawals can have a significant negative effect on your Benefit Base and your LPA.

A withdrawal charge may apply. If you withdraw more than your Free Withdrawal Amount (10% of the Account Value in any Contract Year) but the withdrawal does not exceed your LPA, any applicable withdrawal charge will be waived. If you withdraw more than the Free Withdrawal Amount and any portion of the withdrawal is a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal, a withdrawal charge, if any, will be applied on the entire amount that is greater than the Free Withdrawal Amount. See Part 4, “Withdrawal Charge” and Part 5, “Withdrawals." Following is an example of how a withdrawal charge may apply:

Assume:
Individual GLWB in effect
Premium:                        $40,000
    Account Value before withdrawal:            $18,000
    Withdrawal charge percentage applicable to premium:     6%
    Lifetime Payment Amount:                $ 2,000

Case 1: Owner requests withdrawal of $2,000 (LPA)
The Free Withdrawal Amount is calculated as $18,000 x 10% = $1,800. The $2,000 requested withdrawal is greater than the remaining Free Withdrawal Amount; however, it does not exceed the LPA. No withdrawal charge will apply.

Case 2: Owner requests withdrawal of $2,500
The Free Withdrawal Amount is $1,800. Since the requested withdrawal exceeds the LPA, withdrawal charges will apply. After applying the withdrawal first to the Free Withdrawal Amount, this leaves $700 ($2,500 - $1,800), which will be subject to a withdrawal charge of $42 ($700 x 6%).

VN-31


Withdrawals must be taken pro rata from your Investment Options. You cannot make a withdrawal from specific Investment Options.

You may not take a withdrawal on your Contract Date.

If you request a withdrawal, we will withdraw the total amount you requested from your Account Value, however the amount you receive will be net of tax withholding and withdrawal charge, if applicable.

You must use our withdrawal form to request withdrawals. Contact our Administrative Office to obtain the form.

GLWB Rider Charge
The GLWB Rider charge is a daily charge taken from the Account Value in your Subaccounts. The charge is in addition to the separate account charges for the contract and reduces your Unit Values. The charge varies depending on which GLWB Investment Strategy you choose. The following table shows the effective annual rates for the Rider charge:

GLWB Investment Strategy
Current GLWB ChargeCurrent GLWB Charge with Total Separate Account Expenses
Strategy 1 – Basic Allocation0.60%2.35%
Strategy 2 – Self Style Allocation
0.80%2.55%

We may increase the annual charge for the GLWB Rider up to the maximum of 1.50%. The maximum GLWB charge with total separate account charges is 3.25% for either GLWB Investment Strategy.

If we do increase the charge, we will give you prior written notice of each increase. If you do not wish to accept an increase, you may elect to either

cancel the Rider; or
continue the Rider with a reduction in the Withdrawal Percentage as determined by us, effective at the time of the Rider charge increase. The maximum reduction in the Withdrawal Percentage is 1.00%, regardless of the number of Rider charge increases.

We do not deduct the Rider charge during the Guaranteed Payment Phase.

The GLWB Rider charge is the same for the Individual GLWB Rider and the Spousal GLWB Rider. The LPA is adjusted downward – by the Spousal Factor of 90% – for the Spousal GLWB Rider instead of an additional charge.

GLWB Investment Strategies
If you purchase a GLWB Rider, you must allocate your premium to only one of the two GLWB Investment Strategies described below. Once you select a GLWB Investment Strategy, you cannot switch to another GLWB Investment Strategy. As a result of the GLWB Rider investment restrictions, you will always have some degree of exposure to the market. You cannot eliminate this exposure even during periods of market volatility. These GLWB Investment Strategies are designed for long-term investors seeking withdrawal guarantees. (Note that the Subaccounts available in the GLWB Investment Strategies are also available without the Rider.)

The GLWB Investment Strategies are intended in part to reduce the risk of investment losses that could require us to use our own assets to make payments under the GLWB Rider. The GLWB Investment Strategies are designed to lower the volatility of returns from your Subaccounts. Subaccounts that are available without limitation (if the GLWB Rider is not selected) may offer the potential for higher returns. Before you select the GLWB Rider, you and your financial representative should carefully consider whether the GLWB Investment Strategies available with the Rider meet your investment objectives and risk tolerance.

GLWB Investment Strategy 1 Basic Allocation
You must allocate your premium according to one of the three models: Blend, Growth or Value. You may reallocate from one model to another, as discussed below.

For more information about these Subaccounts, including information relating to their investment objectives and policies, and the risks of investing, see Part 3, as well as the Fund prospectuses. You can obtain a copy of the Fund prospectuses by contacting our Administrative Office listed in the Glossary. You should read the Fund prospectuses carefully before investing.
In addition to your allocation to one of the two GLWB Investment Strategies, you may invest some or all of your initial premium received by us on the Contract Date in the STO. Transfers from the STO to the Subaccounts must be according to GLWB Investment Strategy and allocation you have selected. See Part 3, section titled “The Fixed Account” for more information about the STO.

Subject to required approvals by federal and state authorities, we may add, remove, change, close, substitute or limit investment in the GLWB Investment Strategies or the Subaccounts at any time.

VN-33


Allocations and Transfers for the GLWB
In addition to the allocation and transfer rules under the contract (See Part 5, section titled "Allocations and Transfers"), the following additional rules and limitations apply to your allocations and transfers:

Your one allocation allowed on the contract must meet the requirements of one of the two GLWB Investment Strategies.
Your Account Value will be automatically rebalanced to your allocation percentages each contract quarter.
You cannot move from one GLWB Investment Strategy to another.
In GLWB Investment Strategy 1, you can reallocate your Account Value invested in one model to another model. The reallocation will reset your Account Value to the required percentages for the new model. Each reallocation triggers the 60-day waiting period before you can make another reallocation.
In GLWB Investment Strategy 2, you can reallocate your Account Value invested in Strategy 2 as long as your new allocation is within the minimum and maximum allocation percentages for each group. Each reallocation triggers the 60-day waiting period before you can make another reallocation.

Your financial professional or a third party may have offered you asset allocation or investment advisory services related to this annuity contract or Rider for an additional fee to be deducted from your contract. Such fees are considered withdrawals and could cause a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal. Therefore, if you purchase a GLWB Rider, we do not recommend using this annuity contract to pay for such services.

Withdrawal Protection for Required Minimum Distributions
If your contract is a traditional IRA or a SEP IRA, you may be required to withdraw money in order to satisfy minimum distribution requirements imposed by the Tax Code after you reach the qualified age under IRS regulations (for an owner that reached age 70½ on or before December 31, 2019, age 70½, and for an owner that reaches age 70½ on or after January 1, 2020, age 72).

We will calculate the RMD for this annuity contract based on its prior calendar year-end fair market value. We do not consider your other assets or distributions in making this calculation. This is the RMD protected under the GLWB Riders except if you elect the spousal Rider, and your spouse is more than 10 years younger than you. In that case, due to your age difference, you will be required to take your RMD for this annuity contract before the LPA Eligibility Date; if you take your RMD from this contract’s Account Value, each withdrawal will be a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal until the LPA Eligibility Date is reached. You are solely responsible for meeting all requirements of the Tax Code.

After the LPA Eligibility Date, you may take the greater of your LPA or your RMD each calendar year. In the year you turn the qualified age the Tax Code provides that you may take your first RMD prior to April 1st of the following calendar year; however, with a GLWB Rider, you must take your first annual RMD in the calendar year you turn the qualified age in order to avoid a potential Nonguaranteed Withdrawal.

We may make any changes we deem necessary to comply with the tax laws. We are not liable for any tax consequences you incur arising from this contract or your obligations under the Tax Code. You should discuss these matters with your tax advisor prior to electing a GLWB Rider.

Continuation of the Spousal GLWB at Owner’s Death
Married spouses – If your covered spouse is recognized under the Tax Code, including same-sex spouses, he or she will have the option to continue the contract and the GLWB Rider at the time of your death. Your covered spouse will become the owner and Annuitant of the contract and all terms and conditions of the contract continue to apply. See Part 5, section titled “Spousal Continuation.”

Civil Union or Domestic Partners – for civil union or domestic partners as defined by state law, the covered partner may continue to receive the LPA under the terms of the Rider. Due to federal tax laws, however, not all terms of the contract can be applied. If the covered partner wishes to continue receiving the LPA, he or she must elect to treat the contract as an inherited IRA. See Part 5, section titled “Death Benefit.” All provisions of the contract and the GLWB Rider still apply, except (i) the covered partner must take at least the RMD each calendar year (caution: this may cause a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal if the LPA Eligibility Date has not been reached); (ii) the covered partner cannot add premium to the contract; (iii) the Death Benefit available to the beneficiary of the covered partner is
VN-34


limited to the Account Value on the Death Benefit Date; and (iv) the beneficiary of the covered partner will be required to receive the remaining Account Value either in a lump sum, over five years or over the life expectancy of the covered partner as determined by the Tax Code. These restrictions are required by the Tax Code.

Guaranteed Payment Phase
The Guaranteed Payment Phase begins on or after the LPA Eligibility Date if either:
Before the Maturity Date, the Account Value reduces to zero (other than as a result of a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal or the voluntary election of an Annuity Option).
On the Maturity Date, you elect to continue to receive annual payments equal to the then current LPA through a life only Annuity Option (or joint life if you have elected the Spousal GLWB Rider and both you and your covered spouse are still living). If you do not elect the LPA Annuity Option, you will automatically receive a single life and 10-year certain Annuity Option under your Contract.

When the contract begins the Guaranteed Payment Phase, we will send you a written notice and any remaining LPA that you have not taken during the current calendar year. (If your contract enters the Guaranteed Payment Phase on the Maturity Date, we will set your Account Value to zero.) Beginning the next calendar year, and in each calendar year during the Guaranteed Payment Phase, you will receive your LPA. The Guaranteed Payment Phase will continue until the death of the owner (or owner and covered spouse if the Spousal GLWB is elected).

Once the Guaranteed Payment Phase begins, all other rights, benefits, values and charges under the contract and the GLWB Rider will terminate, except those described in this section and in the "Cancellation and Termination of Rider" section below. The Guaranteed Payment Phase will end if the Rider terminates. See "Cancellation and Termination of Rider" section below. We should be notified immediately upon the death of the owner (or covered spouse if the Spousal GLWB is elected).

Cancellation and Termination of Rider
You may cancel the Rider during the first 45 days of each Contract Year beginning on the fifth Contract Anniversary. Upon termination of the Rider, the Rider charge will no longer be assessed. All other charges will remain in effect.

This Rider will terminate automatically on the earliest of the following dates:
1.for the Individual GLWB Rider, the date you die, and for the Spousal GLWB Rider, the date the later of you or your covered spouse dies;
2.the date the Account Value equals zero due to a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal;
3.the date that ownership of the contract or Rider is transferred or the contract, Rider or any benefits under the contract or Rider are assigned unless: in New York, the new owner is a covered person; in New Hampshire and Vermont the new owner assumes full ownership of the contract and is essentially the same person as the current owner (e.g. a change to a court appointed guardian representing the owner during the owner’s lifetime) or the new owner is a covered person;
4.on the Maturity Date, unless you elect to receive your LPA through a life only Annuity Option, or joint life only Annuity Option if you have elected the Spousal GLWB Rider and your covered spouse is still living;
5.the date you voluntarily elect an Annuity Option under the contract;
6.the date you cancel the GLWB Rider; or
7.the date you surrender the contract.

Once cancelled or terminated, this Rider may not be reinstated.

Additional Rules
The following additional rules apply if you elect a GLWB Rider:

You must be between 45 and 80 years old on the Contract Date in order to elect the Individual GLWB Rider. In order to elect the Spousal GLWB Rider, the younger of you or your spouse must be at least 45 years old and the older of you or your spouse must be no more than 80 years old on the Contract Date.
The Company may refuse to accept additional premiums on a nondiscriminatory basis at any time.
We may require proof that you (or your covered spouse) are living at any time.
You cannot switch from an Individual GLWB Rider to a Spousal GLWB Rider or vice versa.
Income Plus Withdrawal Program is not available.
Choices Plus Required Minimum Distribution Program is not available.
VN-35


Customized Asset Rebalancing Program is not available.
Systematic withdrawal of RMD only is not available.

Additional Rules that Apply to the Spousal GLWB Rider
1.Only your legal spouse (as defined by applicable state law) on the Contract Date may be named as a covered person under the Spousal GLWB Rider.
2.You must name your spouse as your sole primary beneficiary.
3.You cannot add or change a spouse as a covered person.
4.If your marriage is terminated (such as by divorce or dissolution) or your spouse dies, your spouse is automatically removed as a covered person. If you subsequently remarry, you cannot add the new spouse.
5.You must provide us with notice of the divorce or termination of marriage.
6.Once the spouse is removed as a covered person, lifetime withdrawals under the Spousal GLWB Rider are no longer guaranteed for the lives of both you and your spouse. (If a spouse is removed, you can name a new beneficiary to receive the Death Benefit.)
7.If a spouse is removed and is no longer a covered person, the LPA Eligibility Date and the Age Based Percentage are still based on the younger of you or your (now removed) spouse.
8.If a spouse is removed and is no longer a covered person, the Spousal Factor of 90% will continue to apply to your LPA calculation.

Should You Purchase the GLWB Rider?
The addition of a GLWB Rider to your annuity contract may not be right for you. For example:

if you are purchasing the GLWB Rider to meet income needs, you should consider whether an immediate annuity is better suited to your situation;
if you do not expect to take withdrawals while this Rider is in effect, you do not need a GLWB Rider because the benefit is accessed through withdrawals; or
if you are likely to need to take withdrawals prior to your LPA Eligibility Date or in an amount that is greater than the LPA or RMD for this contract only, you should carefully evaluate whether a GLWB Rider is appropriate, due to the negative effect of Nonguaranteed Withdrawals on your Benefit Base.
If your spouse is 10 or more years younger than you, the Spousal GLWB Rider may not be suitable for you.

Benefits paid may not exceed the charges associated with the Rider depending on how long the covered person lives.

You should consult with your tax advisor and financial representative and carefully consider your alternatives before deciding if a GLWB Rider is suitable for your needs.

Examples
Please see Appendix C for hypothetical examples that illustrate how the GLWB Riders work.

Part 7 – Voting Rights

How Fund Shares Are Voted

National Integrity Life is the legal owner of the Fund shares held by the Separate Account. As a shareholder, we have the right to vote on certain matters with respect to the Funds. Among other things, we may vote to elect the Fund’s Board of Directors, to ratify the selection of independent auditors, and on any other matters described in a current prospectus or statement of additional information for each Fund, or any matter requiring a vote by shareholders under the 1940 Act.

Whenever a shareholder vote is taken, we will give you the opportunity to tell us how to vote the number of shares attributable to the Units in your contract. We will send you proxy materials and a form for giving us voting instructions.

If we do not receive instructions in time from all contract owners, we will vote shares for which we have not received instructions in the same proportion as we vote shares for which we have received instructions. As a result of this
VN-36


proportional voting, the vote of a small number of contract owners may determine the outcome of a proposal. We may vote any shares that we are entitled to vote directly, because of amounts we have accumulated in our Separate Account, as we deem appropriate. If the federal securities laws or regulations or interpretations of them change so that we are permitted to vote shares in our own right or to restrict contract owner voting, we may do so.

Fund shares are sold to investors other than us. Therefore, the shares voted by all shareholders will dilute the effect of voting instructions received by us from our contract owners.

How We Determine Your Voting Shares

You vote only on matters concerning the Funds that correspond to the Subaccounts in which you are invested on the record date set by the Funds. We determine the number of shares you vote by dividing your Account Value in each Subaccount by the total value of assets in the Subaccount multiplied by the number of shares in the Subaccount.

Part 8 – Tax Aspects of the Contract

Tax Status of the Contract

This contract is only available as a traditional IRA, Roth IRA, or SEP IRA. If you were able to purchase this contract as other than an IRA, the contract would not satisfy the diversification requirements under federal tax law to be treated as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes, and you would be currently taxed on your investment and gain.

Variable annuity contracts (other than certain pension and qualified retirement plan contracts, including IRAs) are generally not treated as annuities for federal income tax purposes, and thus lose their tax-deferred character, if they do not satisfy certain diversification requirements set forth in Section 817(h) of the Tax Code. Investing in the ETF shares that are "publicly available," i.e., that can be purchased directly without purchasing a variable annuity or life insurance contract, is incompatible with these requirements. Accordingly, standing alone, the contract would not be treated as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes. However, we believe that an individual purchasing a contract as an IRA will not be taxed currently on the investment and gain.

Contracts that qualify as IRAs are not subject to restrictions against investing in publicly available investments if the contracts meet certain requirements set forth by the IRS. We believe this contract will meet those requirements, although there is no guarantee that this will be the case. If this contract is not maintained as an IRA, the taxes on the contributions and any income or gain on the investments will not be deferred (or for a Roth IRA, taxes on the income and gain will not be free from federal income tax) and the tax treatment will be uncertain.

Types of IRAs

Traditional IRAs
Section 408 of the Tax Code permits eligible individuals to contribute to an individual retirement program known as an IRA. An IRA can be in the form of a trust or custodial account or an annuity. An individual may make annual contributions to an IRA of up to the lesser of the limit specified in the Tax Code ($6,000 for 2021 and subject to annual cost-of-living adjustments for later years) or 100% of compensation includible in the individual's gross income. For an individual age 50 or older, the limit is increased by $1,000. The contributions may be deductible in whole or in part, depending on the individual's income and whether the individual or spouse participates in an employer sponsored retirement plan. Contribution limits set by the Tax Code are cumulative limits that apply to all traditional and Roth IRAs owned by an individual. Distributions from another IRA or certain eligible employer plans may be transferred or "rolled over" into an IRA on a tax-deferred basis without regard to these limits. Amounts in the IRA are taxed when distributed from the IRA at ordinary income tax rates. A 10% penalty tax (discussed below) generally applies to distributions made before age 59½, subject to certain exceptions. IRAs have minimum distribution rules (also discussed below) that govern the timing and amount of required distributions from traditional IRAs.

VN-37


SEP IRAs
Section 408 of the Tax Code permits SEP IRAs, which are a type of IRAs that allows employers to contribute to IRAs on behalf of their employees. Employer contributions made to an employee's SEP IRA cannot exceed the lesser of (1) 25% of the employee's compensation, and (2) a limit specified in the Tax Code ($58,000 for 2021, subject to annual cost-of-living adjustments for later years). Distributions from SEP IRAs are subject to the same restrictions and rules that apply to IRA distributions.

Roth IRAs
Section 408A of the Tax Code permits certain eligible individuals to make non-deductible contributions to a Roth IRA in cash or as a rollover or transfer from another Roth IRA or other IRA. Only individuals with income below certain amounts specified in the Tax Code may contribute to a Roth IRA. An eligible individual may make annual contributions to a Roth IRA of up to the lesser of the limit specified in the Tax Code ($6,000 for 2021 and subject to annual cost-of-living adjustments for later years) or 100% of compensation includible in the individual's gross income. For an individual age 50 or older, the limit is increased by $1,000. Contribution limits set by the Tax Code are cumulative limits that apply to all traditional and Roth IRAs owned by an individual. A rollover from, or conversion of, an IRA to a Roth IRA is generally subject to tax on the full amount rolled over or converted.

You should consult a tax advisor before converting amounts to a Roth IRA or combining any converted amounts with any other Roth IRA contributions, including any other conversion amounts from other tax years.

Distributions from a Roth IRA generally are not taxed, except that, once aggregate distributions exceed contributions to the Roth IRA, income tax and a 10% penalty tax (discussed below) may apply to distributions made (1) before age 59 1/2 (subject to certain exceptions), or (2) during the five taxable years starting with the year in which the first contribution is made to the Roth IRA or, in general, any other Roth IRA.

Rollovers and Transfers

In many circumstances you may move money tax-free from one IRA to another IRA or from other qualified plans, such as a 401(k) plan or 403(b) tax sheltered annuities, to an IRA by means of a direct rollover or a transfer. You may roll over, directly or indirectly, any eligible rollover distribution. An eligible rollover distribution is defined generally as any distribution of all or part of the balance from a qualified plan, except you cannot roll over the following taxable distributions from a plan or IRA:
any distribution that is part of a series of substantially equal payments made over your life expectancy;
any distribution made for a specified period of 10 years or more;
any distribution that is an RMD; or
any hardship distribution.

Also, you cannot roll over from a SIMPLE IRA during the first two years of participation in the SIMPLE IRA and a roll over of an after-tax contribution that had been made to a Roth IRA may be a taxable event.

You can make only one rollover from an IRA to another (or the same) IRA in any 12-month period, regardless of the number of IRAs you own. The limit will apply by aggregating all of an individual’s IRAs, including SEP and SIMPLE IRAs as well as traditional and Roth IRAs, effectively treating them as one IRA for purposes of the limit. Trustee-to-trustee transfers between IRAs are not limited. Rollovers from traditional IRAs to Roth IRAs (“conversions”) are not limited.

Tax laws are complex and your individual situation is unique. You should always consult a tax advisor before you move or attempt to move assets between any IRA or qualified plan and another qualified contract or plan.

Early Distributions

Premature distributions are subject to an additional penalty tax equal to 10% of the amount of any payment from your IRA that is includible in your income. This penalty is in addition to ordinary income tax.

VN-38


Some distributions will be exempt from the additional federal tax. There is an exception to this 10% additional federal tax for:

1)    distributions made on or after the date you (or the Annuitant as applicable) reach age 59 ½;
2)        distributions following your death or disability (or the Annuitant as applicable) (for this purpose “disability” is defined in Code Section 72(m)(7));
3)        distributions paid in series of substantially equal payments made annually (or more frequently) for your life (or life expectancy) or joint lives (or life expectancies) of you and designated beneficiary;
4)    distributions made to you after separation from service after attaining age 55 (does not apply to IRAs);
5)        distributions made to you to the extent such distributions do not exceed the amount allowable as a deduction under Code Section 213 to you for amounts paid during the taxable year for medical care (determined without regard to whether you itemize deductions for such taxable year);
6)        distributions to an alternate payee pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order (within the meaning of Code Section 414(p)(1));
7)        distributions from an IRA for the health insurance (as described in Code Section 213)(d)(1)(D)) for you and your spouse and dependents if you have received unemployment compensation for at least 12 weeks (this exception will no longer apply after you have been re-employed for at least 60 days);
8)        distributions from an IRA made to you, to the extent such distributions do not exceed your qualified higher education expenses (as defined in Code Section 72(t)(7)) for the tax year;
9)        distributions from an IRA which are qualified first-time homebuyer distributions (as defined in Code Section 72(t)(8));
10)    distributions made to a reservist called to active duty after September 11, 2001, for a period in excess of 179 days (or for an indefinite period), from IRAs or amounts attributable to elective deferrals under a 401(k) plan made during such active period; and
11)    distributions made on account of an IRS levy upon a qualified contract.

With respect to 3) above, if the series of substantially equal periodic payments is modified (other than by reason of death or disability) before the close of the 5-year period beginning with the date of the first payment and after you attain age 59 ½, or before you attain age 59 ½, then the tax for the year of the modification is increased by the 10% additional federal tax, plus interest for the tax years in which the exception was used. You should consult with your tax adviser before taking any partial withdrawals from your Contract.

Required Minimum Distributions (RMD)

For traditional and SEP IRAs, RMDs generally must commence no later than April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the owner reaches the qualified age under IRS regulations (for an owner that reached age 70½ on or before December 31, 2019, age 70½, and for an owner that reaches age 70½ on or after January 1, 2020, age 72). The distribution required by April 1 is the distribution required for the year in which the owner actually turns the qualified age. Unless an exemption is otherwise available, you must take distributions for each calendar year after the year the owner turns the qualified age by December 31 of that year. The amount of the RMD is based on the prior year-end fair market value of your contract.

If your contract provides an additional benefit, such as the optional GLWB Rider, the fair market value of your contract may increase by the actuarial present value of the benefit. Therefore, the amount of the RMD you must take may increase.

If you have more than one IRA, the distributions required by the Tax Code for all IRAs in the aggregate may be met by taking distributions from one or more of your IRAs. Please note, however, that only the RMD as defined in the Glossary (for this contract only one time each Contract Year) is protected from a withdrawal charge (see Part 5, section titled “Free Withdrawal Amount”) and from being a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal if you have a GLWB Rider (See Part 6, section titled “Withdrawal Protection for Required Minimum Distributions.)

Failure to comply with the RMD rules applicable to qualified contracts may result in the imposition of an excise tax. This excise tax generally equals 50% of the amount by which an RMD exceeds the actual distribution from the contract.
VN-39



Roth IRAs do not require distributions at any time prior to the owner's death.

Inherited IRAs

The death benefit paid under this contract may be extended as an inherited IRA. This occurs if, after the death of the owner, the owner's beneficiary directs that the death proceeds be titled as an inherited IRA. See Part 5, section titled “Death Benefit.” The owner's beneficiary of the original IRA contract will become the inherited IRA owner and may name his or her own beneficiary in the event of death.

The inherited IRA owner may invest in the Subaccounts then available under the contract. Separate account charges will continue to apply. The inherited IRA owner must take RMDs beginning on or before December 31 of the calendar year after the original owner’s death. If the beneficiary is a spouse and has elected this option, distributions may begin at the end of the calendar year in which the owner would have reached the qualified age for purposes of IRS regulations (for an owner that reached age 70½ on or before December 31, 2019, age 70½, and for an owner that reaches age 70½ on or after January 1, 2020, age 72), if later.

Compliance with the SECURE Act

The Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement Act of 2019, as amended (the “SECURE Act”) substantially changes the tax rules that allowed inherited IRA owners to stretch distributions from their inherited IRAs over their life expectancies. Pursuant to the SECURE Act, notwithstanding any provision in the contract to the contrary, beginning with an owner’s death in 2020, an inherited IRA owner will generally be required to distribute the entire IRA balance within 10 years of the owner’s death.

Under the new rule, an inherited IRA owner who is not an “eligible designated beneficiary” under the Tax Rules, generally must receive the entire death benefit within 10 years of the annuity owner’s death. Eligible designated beneficiaries may still elect to take distributions over their life expectancy or over a period not extending beyond their life expectancy, but the 10-year requirement applies when they die. Eligible designated beneficiaries include: (1) the owner’s surviving spouse, (2) the owner’s minor child (until the child reaches the age of majority, at which time the 10-year rule begins to apply), (3) a disabled person, (4) a chronically ill person, or (5) an individual who is not more than 10 years younger than the owner. The inherited IRA owner’s status as an eligible designated beneficiary is determined on the date of the owner’s death. The five-year rule still applies to non-designated beneficiaries (i.e., beneficiaries that are not human beings).

National Integrity Life does not provide tax advice. Please consult your personal financial or tax advisor if you have any questions regarding the impact of the SECURE Act on your designation of beneficiary(ies) and any death benefit paid under this contract.

RMD based on a maximum 10-year period.

The following restrictions apply to the inherited IRA contract: (i) the inherited IRA owner may not add premium to the contract; (ii) the Death Benefit available to the beneficiary of the inherited IRA owner is the Account Value on the Death Benefit Date after the death of the inherited IRA owner; (iii) the beneficiary of the inherited IRA owner will be required to receive the remaining Account Value either in a lump sum, over five or ten years or over the life expectancy of the inherited IRA owner as determined by the Tax Code.

A tax penalty applies if the inherited IRA owner fails to take the RMD. The tax penalty equals 50% of the excess of the RMD over the amount actually withdrawn from the inherited IRA during the calendar year.

For more information on inherited IRAs, see IRS Publication 590. Seek independent tax advice.

Federal and State Income Tax Withholding

We may be required to withhold federal income taxes on all distributions unless the eligible recipients elect not to have any amounts withheld and properly notify us of that election.

Certain states have indicated that pension and annuity withholding will apply to payments made to their residents. Generally, an election out of federal withholding will also be considered an election out of state withholding. For more information concerning a particular state, call our Administrative Office listed in the Glossary.

Tax Status of the Company

Under existing federal income tax laws, we do not pay tax on investment income and realized capital gains of the Separate Account. We do not anticipate that we will incur any federal income tax liability on the income and gains earned by the Separate Account. The Company, therefore, does not impose a charge for federal income taxes. If federal income tax law changes and we must pay tax on some or all of the income and gains earned by the Separate Account, we may impose a charge against the Separate Account to pay the taxes. We can also set up reserves for taxes. We receive a tax deduction for dividends received by the Funds.

Transfers among Subaccounts

There will not be any current tax liability if you transfer any part of the Account Value among the Subaccounts of your contract.

VN-41


Seek Tax Advice

National Integrity Life does not act as your tax or legal advisor. This discussion of the federal income tax treatment of the contract is not designed to cover all situations and is not intended to be tax advice. It is based upon our understanding of the present federal income tax laws as currently interpreted by the IRS and various courts. The IRS or the courts may change their views on the treatment of these contracts. Future legislation may have a negative effect on annuity contracts or IRAs. Also, we have not attempted to consider any applicable state or other tax laws.

Because of the complexity of the tax laws and the fact that tax results will vary according to the particular circumstances, anyone considering buying a contract, selecting an Annuity Option under the contract, or receiving annuity payments under a contract should consult a qualified tax advisor.

You should carefully consider the advantages and disadvantages of owning a variable annuity as an IRA or tax-qualified plan, as well as the costs and benefits of the contract (including the death benefits, income benefits and other non-tax-related benefits), before you purchase the contract as an IRA.

This contract includes an enhanced death benefit and offers an optional living benefit. The IRS requires an actuarial present value of enhanced benefits to be added to the Account Value for purposes of calculating the fair market value of the annuity and determining the RMD.

The IRS has not reviewed the contract for qualification as an IRA and we make no guarantees that the contract will so qualify. National Integrity Life does not guarantee the tax status, federal, state, or local, of any contract or any transaction involving the contracts.

Part 9 – Additional Information
Systematic Withdrawal Program

We offer a program that allows you to pre-authorize periodic withdrawals from your contract prior to your Annuity Date. You can choose to have withdrawals made monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually and can specify the day of the month (other than the 29th, 30th or 31st) on which the withdrawal is to be made. If you do not select how often you want to receive withdrawals, we will make them on a monthly basis. You may specify a dollar amount or an annual percentage to be withdrawn, such as the Free Withdrawal Amount. The minimum Systematic Withdrawal is $100. If you do not have enough Account Value to make the withdrawal you have specified, no withdrawal will be made and your enrollment in the program will end. You may specify an account for direct deposit of your Systematic Withdrawals. Direct deposit is required for monthly withdrawals. Withdrawals under this program are subject to withdrawal charges, if any (see Part 4, section titled "Withdrawal Charge") and to income tax and a 10% tax penalty if you are under age 59½. See Part 8.

To enroll in our Systematic Withdrawal Program, send the appropriate form to our Administrative Office. You may terminate your participation in the program upon prior written notice. We may terminate or change the Systematic Withdrawal Program at any time.

Cyber Security and Certain Business Continuity Risks
We rely heavily on interconnected computer systems and digital data to conduct our variable product business activities. Because our variable product business is highly dependent upon the effective operation of our computer systems and those of our business partners, our business is potentially vulnerable to disruptions from utility outages and other problems, and susceptible to operational and information security risks resulting from information systems failure, including hardware and software malfunctions and cyber-attacks. These risks include, among other things, the theft, misuse, corruption and destruction of data maintained online or digitally, interference with or denial of service attacks on websites and other operational disruption and unauthorized release of confidential customer information. Such systems failures and cyber-attacks affecting us, the underlying Funds, the principal underwriter and other affiliated or third-party service providers may adversely affect us and your Contract Value. For instance, cyber-attacks may interfere with our processing of contract transactions, including the processing of orders with the underlying Funds; cause the release and possible destruction of confidential customer or business information;
VN-42


subject us and/or our service providers and intermediaries to regulatory fines and financial losses; and/or cause reputational damage. Cyber security risks may also affect the issuers of securities in which the underlying Funds invest, which may cause the underlying Funds to lose value. There can be no assurance that we, the underlying Funds or our service providers will avoid losses affecting your Contract that result from cyber-attacks or information security breaches in the future. In addition to cyber security risks, we are subject to business interruption risks caused by catastrophes, both natural and man-made, including those associated with pandemics, terrorist attacks, fires or inclement weather events. Such events may cause systems upon which we rely to be inaccessible to our employees, customers, service providers or intermediaries for an extended period of time, causing a negative impact on our ability to provide services and products. These risks also apply to other insurance and financial services companies and businesses.
Anti-Money Laundering
Federal laws designed to counter terrorism and prevent money laundering by criminals might in certain circumstances require us to reject a premium payment and/or “freeze” an owner’s account. If these laws apply in a particular situation, we would not be allowed to pay any request for surrenders (either full or partial), or death benefits, make transfers, or continue making annuity payments absent instructions from the appropriate federal regulator. We may also be required to provide information about you and your Contract to government agencies or departments.

Income Plus Withdrawal Program

We offer an Income Plus Withdrawal Program that allows you to pre-authorize substantially equal periodic withdrawals, based on your life expectancy as defined by the Tax Code, from your contract anytime before you reach age 59½. You will not have to pay a tax penalty for these withdrawals, but they will be subject to ordinary income tax. See Part 8. Once you begin receiving your withdrawals under this program, you should not change or stop the withdrawals until the later of:
the date you reach age 59½; and
five years from the date of the first withdrawal under the program.

If you change or stop the withdrawals or take an additional withdrawal, you may have to pay a 10% penalty tax that would have been due on all prior withdrawals made under the Income Plus Withdrawal Program before you reached the date described above, plus interest.

You may choose to have withdrawals made monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually and may specify the day of the month (other than the 29th, 30th or 31st) on which the withdrawal is made. You may specify an account for direct deposit of your withdrawals. Direct deposit is required for monthly withdrawals. We will calculate the amount of the withdrawal, subject to a $100 minimum. We are not responsible for any tax or other liability you may incur if our good faith calculations are not correct. You should consult with your tax advisor to ensure these withdrawals are appropriate to your situation.

If on any withdrawal date you do not have enough Account Value to make the withdrawals you specified, no withdrawal will be made and your enrollment in the program will end.

To enroll in our Income Plus Withdrawal Program, send the appropriate form to our Administrative Office. You may end your participation in the program upon prior written notice. We may terminate or change the Income Plus Withdrawal Program at any time. This program is not available in connection with the Systematic Withdrawal Program. Withdrawals under this program are subject to a withdrawal charge, if any. See Part 4, section titled "Withdrawal Charge."

This program is not available with a GLWB Rider. See Part 6.

Choices Plus Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) Program

We offer a Choices Plus RMD Program that allows you to pre-authorize withdrawals from your IRA after you attain the qualified age under IRS regulations (for an owner that reached age 70½ on or before December 31, 2019, age 70½, and for an owner that reaches age 70½ on or after January 1, 2020, age 72). The Tax Code requires that you
VN-43


take minimum distributions beginning on or before April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which you turn the qualified age. The distribution required by April 1 is the distribution required for the year you actually turn the qualified age. Unless an exemption is otherwise available, you must take distributions for each calendar year after the year you turn the qualified age by December 31 of that year. These withdrawals are subject to ordinary income tax. See Part 8.

You can choose the Choices Plus RMD Program at any time you have reached the qualified age for purposes of IRS regulations by sending the election form to our Administrative Office. You can choose to have withdrawals made monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually and can specify the day of the month (other than the 29th, 30th, or 31st) on which the withdrawal is made. You may specify an account for direct deposit of your withdrawals. Direct deposit is required for monthly withdrawals. As a convenience, we will calculate the amount of the withdrawals. We are not responsible for any tax or other liability you may incur if our good faith calculations are not correct. You should consult with your tax advisor to ensure these withdrawals are appropriate to your situation.

Withdrawals of Account Value that are made as part of the Choices Plus program are not subject to a withdrawal charge, as long as you do not take additional withdrawals. You may end your participation in the program upon prior written notice. We may terminate or change the Choices Plus RMD Program at any time.

This program is not available with a GLWB Rider. See Part 6, section titled "Withdrawal Protection for Required Minimum Distributions."

Systematic Transfer Program

We offer a Systematic Transfer Program where we accept new premiums into a Systematic Transfer Option (STO), which is a Fixed Account, and make transfers out of the STO to one or more Subaccounts on a monthly or quarterly basis. We will transfer your STO premiums in approximately equal installments of at least $1,000 monthly over a six-month or monthly or quarterly over a one-year period, depending on the options you select. You can only invest in either the six-month or one-year STO at any one time, but not both. If you do not have enough Account Value in the STO to transfer to each Subaccount specified, a final transfer will be made on a pro rata basis and your enrollment in the program will end. All interest accrued and any Account Value remaining in the STO at the end of the period during which transfers are scheduled to be made will be transferred at the end of that period on a pro rata basis to the Subaccounts you chose for this program. You cannot transfer Account Value into the STO.

Transfers made under our Systematic Transfer Program do not trigger a 60-day waiting period. See Part 4, section titled “Allocations and Transfers.”

To enroll in our Systematic Transfer Program, send the appropriate form to our Administrative Office. We can end the Systematic Transfer Program in whole or in part, or restrict premiums to the program.

This program is available with a GLWB Rider only for the initial premium we received on the Contract Date. See Part 6.

Customized Asset Rebalancing Program

Asset rebalancing allows you to maintain a diversified investment mix that is appropriate for your goals and risk tolerance. Because your different Subaccounts will experience different gains and losses at different times, your asset allocation may shift from your preferred mix. Asset rebalancing periodically resets your investments to your original allocations, ensuring that your asset mix stays in line with your investment strategy.

We offer a Customized Asset Rebalancing Program that allows you to have your investments rebalanced to your allocation percentages periodically. You can choose to rebalance quarterly, semi-annually or annually.

The Account Value in the currently available Subaccounts will automatically be rebalanced back to your allocation percentages by selling all existing Units subject to rebalancing and repurchasing Units according to your allocation. You will receive a confirmation notice after each rebalancing. Subaccounts that are closed to new purchases, and the Fixed Account, are not included in the Customized Asset Rebalancing Program.

VN-44


Transfers under our Customized Asset Rebalancing Program do not trigger a 60-day waiting period. See Part 4, section titled “Allocations and Transfers.”

To enroll in our Customized Asset Rebalancing Program, send the appropriate form to our Administrative Office. You may terminate your participation in the program upon prior written notice. We may end or change the Customized Asset Rebalancing Program at any time. We recommend you consult with your financial professional when establishing your allocation.

This program is not available with a GLWB Rider because quarterly rebalancing is required. See Part 6.

Legal Proceedings

National Integrity Life is a party to litigation and arbitration proceedings in the ordinary course of its business. None of these matters is expected to have a material adverse effect on National Integrity Life.

Appendix B – Withdrawal Charge Examples

We allow two ways for you to request withdrawals. In the first method, you receive the amount requested, and any withdrawal charge is taken from the Account Value. This reduces your Account Value by the amount of the withdrawal charge in addition to the amount you requested. This is the method used unless you request otherwise or unless you have elected one of the GLWB Riders. In the second method, you receive less than you requested if a withdrawal charge applies because the Account Value is reduced by the amount of the requested withdrawal and any withdrawal charge is taken from that amount.

For both methods, withdrawals are attributed to amounts in the following order:
1.    any Free Withdrawal Amount (except in the case of a surrender);
2.    premiums that are no longer subject to a withdrawal charge and have not yet been withdrawn (premiums are withdrawn from oldest to youngest);
3.    premiums subject to a withdrawal charge that have not yet been withdrawn (premiums are withdrawn from oldest to youngest);
4.    any gain, interest or other amount that is not considered a premium.

Example Assumptions
Assume one premium is paid, no previous withdrawals have been taken, and the Account Value at the time of the withdrawal is higher than the Account Value on the most recent Contract Anniversary:
    Premium:                             $50,000
    Account Value before withdrawal:                $60,000
    Requested withdrawal:                        $16,000
    Withdrawal charge percentage applicable to the premium:    6%

Taxes are not considered in this example.

Using the First Method
The Free Withdrawal Amount is calculated as:

$6,000 = $60,000 (Account Value on the date of the withdrawal) x 10% (free withdrawal percentage) - $0 (previous partial withdrawals during the current Contract Year).

After first applying the withdrawal to the Free Withdrawal Amount, the amount of the withdrawal still to be applied is:

$10,000 = $16,000 (requested withdrawal) - $6,000 (Free Withdrawal Amount).

There are no premiums that are no longer subject to a withdrawal charge, so the withdrawal is next applied to the premium subject to a withdrawal charge. The withdrawal charge for this method is calculated as:
    
$638.30 = $10,000 (portion of the withdrawal still to be attributed) x 6% (withdrawal charge percentage) / (1 – 6%) (one minus the withdrawal charge percentage).

Using this method, you will receive $16,000; however, the total Account Value withdrawn is:

$16,638.30 = $16,000 (requested withdrawal) + $638.30 (withdrawal charge).

The amount of premium still subject to a withdrawal charge is:

$39,361.70 = $50,000 (premium) - $10,638.30 (portion of withdrawal attributed to premium including the withdrawal charge).

Note, the withdrawal charge does not just apply to the premium withdrawn ($10,000 x 6%). It also applies to the withdrawal charge itself as indicated by the (1- 6%) factor in the withdrawal charge formula.


VN-56


Using the Second Method
The Free Withdrawal Amount is calculated as:

$6,000 = $60,000 (Account Value on the date of the withdrawal) x 10% (free withdrawal percentage) - $0 (previous partial withdrawals during the current Contract Year).

After first applying the withdrawal to the Free Withdrawal Amount, the amount of the withdrawal still to be attributed is:

$10,000 = $16,000 (requested withdrawal) - $6,000 (Free Withdrawal Amount).

There are no premiums that are no longer subject to a withdrawal charge, so the withdrawal is next applied to the premium subject to a withdrawal charge. The withdrawal charge for this method is calculated as:

$600 = $10,000 (portion of the withdrawal still to be attributed) x 6% (withdrawal charge percentage).

Using this method, the total Account Value withdrawn is $16,000; however, you will receive:

$15,400 = $16,000 (requested withdrawal) - $600 (withdrawal charge).

The amount of premium still subject to a withdrawal charge is:

$40,000 = $50,000 (premium) - $10,000 (portion of withdrawal attributed to premium including the withdrawal charge).

Note the second method will produce the same withdrawal charge as the first method if the requested withdrawal under the second method is the same as the total Account Value withdrawn in the first method. For example, a requested withdrawal of $16,638.30 using the second method produces the same $638.30 withdrawal charge as shown in the first method above.


This example is for illustrative purposes only and does not predict results.

Appendix C

Illustrations of Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit

The following examples demonstrate how the GLWB Riders work, based on the stated assumptions. These examples are for illustration only, and do not predict future investment results.

Example #1
This example illustrates the Individual GLWB Rider where withdrawals equal to the Lifetime Payout Amount (LPA), as well as a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal, have been taken, additional premiums have been added and increases to the Withdrawal Percentage and step-ups have been applied. It also illustrates payments for the life of the covered person even though the Account Value has been reduced to zero. All amounts in the table are rounded to the nearest $1.00 in this example.

Assumptions:
The Contract Date is June 27.
The Owner's age on Contract Date is 60 years.
The Initial premium was $100,000; additional premiums of $10,000 were paid in calendar years 2 and 10.
A Nonguaranteed Withdrawal equal to $776 is taken in calendar year 14.
Withdrawals equal to LPA are taken in calendar years 6-13, and calendar years 15+.
No withdrawals are taken that would result in withdrawal charges under the contract.
The RMD is not higher than the LPA in any calendar year.
The Rider remains in effect during the period covered in this example.

(A)    The covered person's age for each year is as of January 1. Also, on each January 1, the LPA is equal to the applicable Withdrawal Percentage multiplied by the Benefit Base.

(B)    In any year that an additional premium is added, it is assumed to be added on February 10. For purposes of this example, we selected February 10 as the assumed date of additional premium payments. Since premiums may be paid throughout the year, we hoped to accurately demonstrate the effect on the contract values by using a date other than the Contract Anniversary and January 1, which are the two key dates in the GLWB Rider calculations.

(C)    Any step-up is applied on the Contract Anniversary, which is June 27 of each year.

VN-59


(D)    Any withdrawal is assumed to occur one time per year on October 8. For purposes of this example, we selected October 8 as the assumed date of withdrawals. Since withdrawals may be made throughout the year, we hoped to accurately demonstrate the effect on the contract values by using a random date other than the Contract Anniversary and January 1, which are the two key dates in the GLWB Rider calculations.

(E)    The hypothetical Account Value on the Contract Anniversary and on the date of the withdrawal includes deduction of all separate account charges and is before any withdrawal.

(F)    The first calendar year begins on June 27, the Contract Date. On this day, the Benefit Base ($100,000) is set equal to the initial premium ($100,000).
The Withdrawal Percentage (4.00%) is equal to the Age Based Percentage (4.00%) plus the cumulative Deferral Percentage (0%) plus the First Year Deferral Percentage (0%).

Since the covered person is at least age 60 on the date the Rider is issued, the LPA is available. It is calculated as the Withdrawal Percentage multiplied by the Benefit Base:
•    4.0% (Withdrawal Percentage) x $100,000 (Benefit Base) = $4,000 (LPA).

Since this is the first calendar year, the LPA is multiplied by a pro rata portion of the calendar year that remains. The pro rata factor is the number of days remaining in the calendar year divided by the total number of days in the calendar year:
•    187 (Days remaining in calendar year) / 365 (Total days in calendar year assuming a non-leap year) x $4,000 (LPA) = $2,049 (1st Year LPA).

(G)    Since no withdrawal was taken in calendar year 1 and since the Contract Date was June 27, the First Year Deferral Percentage is determined as 0.050%. The Withdrawal Percentage (4.050%) is equal to the Age Based Percentage (4.00%) plus the cumulative Deferral Percentage (0%) plus the First Year Deferral Percentage (0.050%).
The LPA is determined as the Withdrawal Percentage multiplied by the Benefit Base:
•    4.050% (Withdrawal Percentage) x $100,000 (Benefit Base) = $4,050 (LPA).

(H)    An additional premium of $10,000 is made during calendar year 2. Since this premium is during the first Contract Year, the Benefit Base is increased by the amount of the premium.
•    $100,000 (Benefit Base) + $10,000 (additional premium amount) = $110,000 Benefit Base after the additional premium.

(I)    In calendar year 2, the Benefit Base increases to $112,614 because the hypothetical Account Value on the Contract Anniversary ($112,614) is larger than the Benefit Base ($110,000). In calendar years 3 and 4, the Benefit Base again increases to the Account Value, because the Account Value on the Contract Anniversary is larger than the Benefit Base. In calendar years 5 and later, the Benefit Base is always larger than the Account Value on the Contract Anniversary, and thus is not stepped up.

(J)    Since no withdrawal was taken in calendar year 2, the cumulative Deferral Percentage is increased by 0.10%. The Withdrawal Percentage (4.150%) in calendar year 3 is equal to the Age Based Percentage (4.00%) plus the cumulative Deferral Percentage (0.10%) plus the First Year Deferral Percentage (0.050%).
The LPA is determined as the Withdrawal Percentage multiplied by the Benefit Base:
•    4.150% (Withdrawal Percentage) x $112,614 (Benefit Base) = $4,673 (LPA).

VN-60


Since no withdrawal was taken in calendar year 3, the cumulative Deferral Percentage is again increased by 0.10%. The Withdrawal Percentage (4.250%) in calendar year 4 is equal to the Age Based Percentage (4.00%) plus the cumulative Deferral Percentage (0.20%) plus the First Year Deferral Percentage (0.050%).
The LPA is determined as the Withdrawal Percentage multiplied by the Benefit Base:
•    4.250% (Withdrawal Percentage) x $116,985 (Benefit Base) = $4,972 (LPA).

Since no withdrawal was taken in calendar year 4, the cumulative Deferral Percentage is again increased by 0.10%. The Withdrawal Percentage (4.350%) in calendar year 5 is equal to the Age Based Percentage (4.00%) plus the cumulative Deferral Percentage (0.30%) plus the First Year Deferral Percentage (0.050%).
The LPA is determined as the Withdrawal Percentage multiplied by the Benefit Base:
•    4.350% (Withdrawal Percentage) x $121,300 (Benefit Base) = $5,277 (LPA).

(K)    Since no withdrawal was taken in calendar year 5, the cumulative Deferral Percentage is again increased by 0.10%. The Age Based Percentage has changed to 4.50% because the covered person is now 65. The Withdrawal Percentage (4.950%) in calendar year 6 is equal to the Age Based Percentage (4.50%) plus the cumulative Deferral Percentage (0.40%) plus the First Year Deferral Percentage (0.050%).
The LPA is determined as the Withdrawal Percentage multiplied by the Benefit Base:
•    4.95% (Withdrawal Percentage) x $121,300 (Benefit Base) = $6,004 (LPA).

Because there is a withdrawal during calendar year 6, the Age Based Percentage is locked at 4.50%.

(L)    An additional premium of $10,000 is made during calendar year 10. Since this premium is paid after the first Contract Year, the premium has no impact on the Benefit Base. All premiums received are immediately applied to the Account Value. For this example, we have used hypothetical Account Values in an effort to reflect market fluctuations between -6% and +6% annually. In the case of this $10,000 additional premium in Contract Year 10, the premium was applied to the Account Value, but because the hypothetical Account Value also reflects market losses, the $10,000 additional premium, assumed to be made on February 10, had declined in value by the Contract Anniversary on June 27.
The evolution of the hypothetical Account Value can be seen by tracking the Account Value from June 27 of year 9 to year 10. The Account Value goes from $99,338 to $102,098 throughout the year, an increase of $2,760. During that Contract Year, there is a $6,004 withdrawal taken on October 8 and a $10,000 premium applied the following February 10; the premium is $3,996 larger than the withdrawal. That means the market experience resulted in a downward movement of $1,236 ($3,996 - $2,760) throughout the year.
      $99,338          Account Value on June 27 of year 9
•    -   $6,004          Withdrawal on October 8
•    +$10,000          Premium on February 10
•    -   $1,236          Market experience
    = $102,098       Account Value on June 27 of year 10

(M)    In calendar year 14, a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal in the amount of $776 ($6,780 amount withdrawn - $6,004 LPA) is taken. The Adjusted Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount is the Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount multiplied by the greater of 1.0 and the ratio of the Benefit Base to the Account Value, where both values are calculated immediately before the Nonguaranteed Withdrawal. For this calculation, the Account Value before the Nonguaranteed Withdrawal is $72,977, equal to the Account Value before any withdrawal ($78,981) minus the LPA ($6,004).It is calculated as follows:
VN-61


•    $776 (Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount) x the greater of 1.0 and 1.6622 ($121,300 Benefit Base divided by $72,977 Account Value) = $1,290 (Adjusted Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount).

The Benefit Base is reduced by the Adjusted Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount:
•    $121,300 (Benefit Base) - $1,290 (Adjusted Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount) = $120,010 Benefit Base after the Nonguaranteed Withdrawal.

(N)    In calendar year 27, the Account Value is reduced to zero after the withdrawal; however, the Benefit Base is greater than zero. Therefore, the Rider enters Guaranteed Payment Phase and payments of the LPA continue.

VN-62


Example #2

This example illustrates the Spousal GLWB Rider where withdrawals equal to the LPA as well as Nonguaranteed Withdrawals have been taken and increases to the Withdrawal Percentage have been applied. It also illustrates the termination of the Rider if the Account Value is reduced to zero by a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal. All amounts in the table are rounded to the nearest $1.00 in this example.

Assumptions:

•    The Contract Date is August 8.
•    The covered persons' ages on Contract Date are: owner is 60 and spouse is 57.
•    The Initial premium is $100,000; no additional premiums are paid.
    Withdrawals equal to LPA are taken in calendar years 4-13.
•    A Nonguaranteed Withdrawal equal to $10,000 in calendar year 3.
• Full Account Value is withdrawn in calendar year 14.
•     No withdrawals are taken that would result in withdrawal charges under the contract.
    The RMD is not higher than the LPA in any calendar year.
•    The Rider remains in effect during the period covered in this example.

(A)    The covered persons' ages for each year are as of January 1. Also, each January 1 on or after the LPA Eligibility Date, the LPA is equal to the applicable Withdrawal Percentage multiplied by the Benefit Base.
VN-63



(B)    Any applicable step-up is applied on the Contract Anniversary, which is August 8 of each year.

(C)    Any applicable withdrawal is assumed to occur one time per year on October 8. For purposes of this example, we selected October 8 as the assumed date of withdrawals. Since withdrawals may be made throughout the year, we hoped to accurately demonstrate the effect on the contract values by using a random date other than the Contract Anniversary and January 1t, which are the two key dates in the GLWB Rider calculations.

(D)    The hypothetical Account Value on the Contract Anniversary and on the date of the withdrawal includes deduction of all separate account charges and is before any withdrawal.

(E)    The first calendar year begins on August 8, the Contract Date. On this day, the Benefit Base ($100,000) is set equal to the initial premium ($100,000). Since the LPA is not available until the LPA Eligibility Date, the Withdrawal Percentage and the LPA are not applicable.

(F)    In calendar year 2, the Benefit Base increases to $103,610 because the hypothetical Account Value on the Contract Anniversary ($103,610) is larger than the Benefit Base ($100,000). In calendar year 3, the Benefit Base again increases to the Account Value, because the Account Value on the Contract Anniversary is larger than the Benefit Base. In calendar years 4 and later, the Benefit Base is always larger than the Account Value on the Contract Anniversary, and thus is not stepped up.

(G)    In calendar year 3, a Nonguaranteed Withdrawal in the amount of $10,000 is taken. The Adjusted Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount is the Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount multiplied by the greater of 1.0 or the ratio of the Benefit Base to the Account Value, where both values are calculated immediately before the Nonguaranteed Withdrawal. It is calculated as follows:

•    $10,000 (Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount) x the greater of 1.0 and 0.9935 ($106,597 Benefit Base divided by $107,299 Account Value) = $10,000 (Adjusted Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount).

The Benefit Base is reduced by the Adjusted Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount:
$106,597 (Benefit Base) - $10,000 (Adjusted Nonguaranteed Withdrawal amount) =$96,597 Benefit Base after the Nonguaranteed Withdrawal.

(H)    January 1 of calendar year 4 is the LPA Eligibility Date; thus, the LPA is now available. Since no withdrawal was taken in calendar year 1 and since the Contract Date was August 8, the First Year Deferral Percentage is 0.025%. Since no withdrawal was taken in calendar year 2, the cumulative Deferral Percentage is 0.10%. The Age Based Percentage (4.00%) is based on the age of the younger covered person. The Withdrawal Percentage (4.125%) is equal to the Age Based Percentage (4.00%) plus the Cumulative Deferral Percentage (0.10%) plus the First Year Deferral Percentage (0.025%).

The LPA is determined as the Withdrawal Percentage multiplied by the Benefit Base multiplied by the Spousal Factor:
•    4.125% (Withdrawal Percentage) x $96,597 (Benefit Base) x 90% (Spousal Factor) = $3,586 (LPA).

Because there is a withdrawal during calendar year 4, the Age Based Percentage is locked at 4.0%.

(I)    A Nonguaranteed Withdrawal reduces the Account Value to zero in calendar year 14 and the Rider and annuity contract terminate.

General Information and History

National Integrity Life Insurance Company (National Integrity) is a New York life insurance company organized on November 22, 1968. The administrative office is located at 400 Broadway, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202. National Integrity, the depositor of Separate Account I, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Integrity Life Insurance Company (Integrity), an Ohio life insurance company, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Western and Southern Life Insurance Company (WSLIC), an Ohio life insurance company organized on February 23, 1888. WSLIC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Western & Southern Financial Group, Inc., an Ohio corporation, which is wholly owned by Western & Southern Mutual Holding Company, an Ohio mutual insurance holding company.

Administration and Distribution of the Contracts

Administration
National Integrity has responsibility for administration of Separate Account I (the Separate Account) and the variable annuity contracts issued through the Separate Account (Contracts). National Integrity has entered into Service Agreements with Integrity and WSLIC to provide certain services, including administrative services for the Separate Account and the Contracts. Compensation for these services, which is paid by National Integrity, is based on the charges and expenses incurred by the service provider, and will reflect actual costs to the extent reasonably possible.

Custodian
Mid Atlantic Trust Company (MATC), 330 South Poplar, Suite 103, Pierre, SD 57501, is the custodian for the exchange-traded funds (ETFs) held by the Subaccounts. MATC provides certain services to the Separate Account, including custody of and accounting services for the ETFs owned by the Separate Account. MATC also facilitates execution of the purchase and sale of the ETFs through broker-dealers.

Underwriter
Touchstone Securities, Inc. (Touchstone Securities), 400 Broadway, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202, an indirect subsidiary of WSLIC and an affiliate of National Integrity, is the principal underwriter of the Contracts. Touchstone Securities is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a broker-dealer and is a member in good standing of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). The Contracts are offered through Touchstone Securities on a continuous basis. The amount of distribution allowances paid to Touchstone Securities, the principal underwriter, for



all variable annuity contracts issued by National Integrity was $1,799,873 in 2020, $2,229,165 in 2019, and $2,265,535 in 2018. Touchstone Securities did not retain distribution allowances during these years.

Sales
The Contracts are sold by insurance agents licensed in the states where the Contracts may be lawfully sold.  The agents are also registered representatives of broker-dealers, which are registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are members of FINRA.
 
We make payments to the broker-dealer firms that distribute our variable annuity contracts in the form of commissions and other incentives. We may make payments in the form of expense reimbursements or marketing allowances to the broker-dealers that distribute our Contracts in exchange for privileges, including additional or special access to broker-dealers' sales staff, opportunities to provide and attend training and other conferences, and marketing enhancements of our Contracts. The method for calculating any additional compensation may include consideration of the level of sales or assets attributable to the firm. Not all broker-dealers receive additional compensation and the amount of compensation varies by firm. These payments could be significant to a firm, and could create a conflict of interest between the firm or representative and the customer. These payments could provide incentive to a firm or representative to recommend a Contract that is not in a customer’s best interest. We generally choose to compensate broker-dealers that have a strong capability to distribute the Contracts and that are willing to cooperate with our promotional efforts.

The following list includes the names of firms that received expense reimbursement or marketing allowance payments of more than $5,000 with respect to variable annuities sold for National Integrity and its parent company, Integrity Life Insurance Company, during the last calendar year.

Performance Data and Illustrations

We may provide performance information and illustrations using performance information. Performance information may be based on historical returns of the subaccounts. At any time in the future, performance will likely be higher or lower than in the past. Historical performance does not predict future results.

Performance Data
In advertisements or in information furnished to you, we may provide the average annual total return and the cumulative total return of the units of the subaccounts. The money market option may also from time to time include the yield and effective yield of its units. Performance information is computed separately for each subaccount in accordance with the formulas described below.

Total return reflects all aspects of the return of a subaccount, including the automatic reinvestment of all distributions and the deduction of all charges that apply on an annual basis. Performance represents annualized percentage change in net assets of a subaccount, based on a hypothetical $1,000 investment, the performance of the underlying portfolios and the charges that would have been made during the periods shown. Premium taxes, if applicable, are not reflected.

Average annual total returns are calculated by determining the growth or decline in value of a hypothetical investment in the subaccount over certain periods, including 1, 3, 5, and 10 years and then calculating the annually compounded percentage rate that would have produced the same result if the rate of growth or decline in value had been constant over the period. 

Investors should realize that a subaccount's performance is not constant over time, but changes from year to year, and that the average annual returns represent the averages of historical periods as opposed to the actual historical performance of a subaccount during any portion of the period shown. Average annual returns are calculated using this formula:

P (1+T)n = ERV, where P is a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000, T is the average annual total return, n is the number of years, and ERV is the redeemable value at the end of the period.

2


Standardized returns are average annual total returns calculated from the subaccount inception date, which represents the date the subaccount was available in the Contract. Standardized returns reflect the deduction of all Contract expenses, including underlying fund expenses, the annual separate account charges and the withdrawal charge. The cost of the optional guaranteed lifetime withdrawal benefit rider is not included. If the cost of the rider were included, the returns would be lower.

Non-standardized returns are calculated from the fund inception date, which represents the inception date of the underlying fund, rather than the date it was included in the Contract. Performance that predates the inclusion in the Contract is hypothetical and has been adjusted to include Contract expenses. Two sets of non-standardized returns may be presented, each reflecting the deduction of underlying fund expenses and the annual separate account charge. One set also reflects the withdrawal charge. The cost of the guaranteed lifetime withdrawal benefit rider is not included. If the cost of the rider were included, the returns would be lower.

Cumulative total returns are unaveraged and reflect the simple percentage change in the value of a hypothetical investment in the subaccount over a stated period of time. In addition to the period since inception, cumulative total returns may be calculated on a year-to-date basis at the end of each calendar month in the current calendar year. The last day of the period for year-to-date returns is the last day of the most recent calendar month at the time of publication.

Yields quoted in advertising reflect the change in value of a hypothetical investment in a subaccount over a stated period of time, not taking into account capital gains or losses, or any withdrawal charge. Yields are annualized and stated as a percentage.

Current yield and effective yield are calculated for the money market option. Current yield is based on the change in the value of a hypothetical investment (exclusive of capital changes) over a particular 7-day period, less Contract charges that would have applied during the period (the base period), and stated as a percentage of the investment at the start of the base period (the base period return). The base period return is then annualized by multiplying by 365/7, with the resulting yield figure carried to at least the nearest hundredth of one percent.

Effective yield assumes that all dividends received during an annual period have been reinvested. This compounding effect causes effective yield to be higher than current yield. Calculation of effective yield begins with the same base period return used in the calculation of current yield, which is then annualized to reflect weekly compounding pursuant to the following formula:    

Effective Yield = [(Base Period Return + 1)365/7] – 1

Individualized Illustrations
National Integrity may provide computer-generated illustrations using programs available through third party firms to provide registered representatives and existing or potential Contracts owners with individualized hypothetical illustrations. The illustrations may include contract values and returns for some or all of the subaccounts. Such illustrations may include graphs, bar charts and other types of formats.

Hypothetical values may be based on: (i) the results of a hypothetical contribution to a Contract invested in a single or multiple subaccounts using standardized and non-standardized average annual returns; or (ii) the results of a hypothetical contribution to a Contract using either static or variable assumed rates of return, as allowed by law.

Distributions From Tax-Favored Qualified Retirement Programs

Distributions from qualified plans are subject to ordinary income tax. Special rules may apply to withdrawals from certain types of qualified plans, including Roth IRAs. You should consult with your tax adviser to determine how these rules affect the distribution of your benefits.

Section 72(t) of the Internal Revenue Code provides that any amount received under a qualified contract, which is included in income, may be subject to an additional federal tax. The amount of the additional federal tax is equal to 10% of the amount that is included in income. Some distributions will be exempt from the additional federal tax. There is an exception to this 10% additional federal tax for:

3


1)    distributions made on or after the date you (or the Annuitant as applicable) reach age 59 ½;
2)    distributions following your death or disability (or the Annuitant as applicable) (for this purpose “disability” is defined in Code Section 72(m)(7);
3)    distributions paid in series of substantially equal payments made annually (or more frequently) for your life (or life expectancy) or joint lives (or life expectancies) of you and designated beneficiary;
4)    distributions made to you after separation from service after attaining age 55 (does not apply to IRAs);
5)    distributions made to you to the extent such distributions do not exceed the amount allowable as a deduction under Code Section 213 to you for amounts paid during the taxable year for medical care (determined without regard to whether you itemize deductions for such taxable year);

7)    distributions from an IRA for the health insurance (as described in Code Section 213(d)(1)(D)) for you and your spouse and dependents if you have received unemployment compensation for at least 12 weeks (this exception will no longer apply after you have been re-employed for at least 60 days);
8)    distributions from an IRA made to you, to the extent such distributions do not exceed your qualified higher education expenses (as defined in Code Section 72(t)(7)) for the tax year;
9)    distributions from an IRA which are qualified first-time homebuyer distributions (as defined in Code Section 72(t)(8));
10)    distributions made to a reservist called to active duty after September 11, 2001, for a period in excess of 179 days (or for an indefinite period), from IRAs or amounts attributable to elective deferrals under a 401(k) plan made during such active period;
11)    distributions made on account of an IRS levy upon a qualified contract; and
12)    distributions from an eligible retirement plan (including an IRA) of up to $5,000 made to you with respect to any qualified birth or adoption.

With respect to 3) above, if the series of substantially equal periodic payments is modified (other than by reason of death or disability) before the close of the 5-year period beginning with the date of the first payment and after you attain age 59 ½, or before you attain age 59 ½, then the tax for the year of the modification is increased by the 10% additional federal tax, plus interest for the tax years in which the exception was used. You should consult with your tax adviser before taking any partial withdrawals from your Contract.

Participants in qualified plans (other than IRAs), with the exception of five-percent owners, must begin receiving distributions by April 1 of the calendar year following the later of either (i) the year in which the participant reaches the qualified age under IRS regulations (for an owner that reached age 70½ on or before December 31, 2019, age 70½, and for an owner that reaches age 70½ on or after January 1, 2020, age 72) or (ii) the calendar year in which the participant retires. Owners of traditional IRAs and 5% owners of qualified plans must begin receiving distributions by April 1 of the calendar year following the year in which the owner or participant reaches the qualified age under IRS regulations. Owners of Roth IRAs are not required to take distributions during their lifetime. Distributions from certain TSA plans can be deferred until age 75. After death, distribution rules apply to traditional and Roth IRAs. If you do not take mandatory distributions, you may owe a 50% penalty tax on any difference between the required distribution amount and the amount distributed.

Distributions from qualified plans (other than traditional IRAs) in the form of a lump sum settlement, partial withdrawal, or periodic annuity payments for a fixed period of fewer than 10 years, are subject to mandatory federal income tax withholding of 20% of the taxable amount of the distribution, unless (i) the payee directs the transfer of such amounts to another qualified plan or traditional IRA; or (ii) the payment is a minimum distribution required under the Internal Revenue Code. The taxable amount is the amount of the distribution less the amount allocable to after-tax contributions. All other types of taxable distributions are subject to a 10% federal income tax withholding unless the payee elects not to have withholding apply.

We are not permitted to make distributions from a Contract unless a request has been made. It is therefore your responsibility to comply with the minimum distribution rules. You should consult your tax adviser regarding these rules and their proper application.

The above description of the minimum distribution requirements and the federal income tax consequences of distributions from tax-favored retirement plans, which may be funded by the Contract, is only a brief summary and is not intended as tax advice. The rules governing the provisions of plans are extremely complex and often difficult

to comprehend. If you do not fully comply with all rules, which are subject to change, you may suffer adverse tax consequences. You should consult a qualified and competent tax adviser prior to adopting a plan or purchasing a Contract in connection with a tax-favored plan.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors of National Integrity Life Insurance Company and
The Contract Owners of Separate Account I of National Integrity Life Insurance Company

Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of each of the subaccounts listed in Appendix A that comprise Separate Account I of National Integrity Life Insurance Company (the Separate Account), as of December 31, 2020, the related statements of operations and the statements of changes in net assets for each the periods indicated in Appendix A, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each subaccount as of December 31, 2020, the results of its operations and changes in its net assets for each of the periods indicated in Appendix A, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Separate Account’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on each of the subaccounts’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Separate Accounts in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2020, by correspondence with the fund companies or their transfer agents, as applicable. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Separate Account’s auditor since 1993.

National Integrity Life Insurance Company Separate Account I (”the Separate Account”) is a unit investment trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), established by the National Integrity Life Insurance Company (the “Company”), a life insurance company that is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Integrity Life Insurance Company (“Integrity”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Western and Southern Life Insurance Company. The Separate Account was established on May 19, 1986, under the insurance laws of the State of New York, for the purpose of issuing variable annuity contracts (“Contracts”).

In addition, certain contract holders may also allocate or transfer their account values to options held in the Company’s general account. Such options include a guaranteed interest division, a quarterly rate option or a Systematic Transfer Option (“STO”). All STO contributions must be transferred to other investment divisions or to a guaranteed rate option within either six months or one year of the contribution.

Mid Atlantic Trust Company (“MATC”), a South Dakota registered non-depository trust company, is the custodian for the Vanguard ETFs and the iShares ETFs held by the subaccounts.

The contract holder’s account value in a subaccount will vary depending on the performance of the corresponding Underlying Fund. The Separate Account currently has 104 investment subaccounts available. The investment objective of each subaccount is to invest in the corresponding Underlying Fund. Refer to each Underlying Fund’s prospectus for a description of investment objectives.

Under applicable insurance law, the assets and liabilities of the Separate Account are clearly identified and distinguished from the Company’s other assets and liabilities. The portion of the Separate Account’s assets applicable to contract holders’ accounts is not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business the Company may conduct.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”).

Investments

Investments in shares of the Underlying Funds are valued at fair value as determined by the closing net asset value per share on December 31, 2020. The difference between cost and fair value is reflected as unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments.


20

Separate Account I
of
National Integrity Life Insurance Company
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Share transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of the Underlying Funds’ shares of the Funds are determined based on identified cost basis.

Capital gain distributions are included in the realized gain distributions line on the Statements of Operations. Dividends are included in the reinvested dividends line on the Statements of Operations. Dividends and capital gain distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and capital gain distributions from the Underlying Funds’ are reinvested in the respective Underlying Funds and are reflected in the unit values of the subaccounts.

The Separate Account’s investments are held at fair value. Fair value is the price that the Separate Account would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair Value is established using a three-level hierarchy based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assessment regarding the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Separate Account’s investments are assigned a level based upon the observability of the inputs that are significant to the overall valuation. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below.

Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices in active markets.
    Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology are observable, directly or indirectly.
    Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and reflect assumptions on the part of the reporting entity.

The Separate Account’s investments are valued as Level 1. There were no transfers between levels 1, 2, and 3 during the year. The Separate Account’s policy is to recognize the transfers in and transfers out of levels at the beginning of the annual reporting period.

Unit Value

Unit values for the subaccounts are computed at the end of each business day. The unit value is equal to the unit value for the preceding business day multiplied by a net investment factor. This net investment factor is determined based on the net asset value of the Underlying Fund, reinvested dividends and capital gains, and the daily asset charge for the mortality and expense risk and certain administrative charges, as applicable.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Taxes

Operations of the Separate Account are included in the income tax return of the Company, which is taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”). The Separate Account is not taxed as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the IRC. Under the provisions of the policies, the Company has the right to charge the Separate Account for federal income tax attributable to the Separate Account. No charge is currently being made against the Separate Account for such tax since, under current tax law, the Company pays no tax on investment income and capital gains reflected in variable life insurance policy reserves. However, the Company retains the right to charge for any federal income tax incurred, which is attributable to the Separate Account if the law is changed. Charges for state and local taxes, if any, attributable to the Separate Account may also be made.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with the US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is exposed to risk associated with the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and is actively monitoring developments through governmental briefings and the relevant health authorities. The effects of the outbreak on the Company are uncertain and difficult to predict, as the situation continues to evolve. Risks include (but are not limited to) the disruption of business operations due to changing work environments for employees, agents and distributors, and business partners; potential economic hardship of policyholders and issuers of investments held by the Separate Account; and disruptions of product marketing and sales efforts. The Separate Account has business continuity plans in place to mitigate the risks posed to business operations by disruptive incidents such as these.

Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events though the issuance of these financial statements and
determined that no additional disclosures are required.

Fourteen contracts are currently included in the Separate Account. The products are stated in the table below, along with the mortality and expense charges and the annual administration fee:

5. Financial Highlights

A summary of net assets, unit values and units outstanding for variable annuity contracts, investment income and expense ratios, excluding expenses of the underlying funds and total returns are presented for each period ended December 31. The ranges of lowest to highest unit values and total return are based on the product groupings that represent lowest and highest expense ratio amounts. The first unit value presented in the range of each subaccount within the table corresponds to the highest expense ratio for each subaccount presented within the table. The first total return presented in the range of each subaccount within the table corresponds to the highest expense ratio for each subaccount presented within the table. Therefore, some individual contract ratios are not within the ranges presented. The financial highlights include historical highlights for funds that may no longer be offered in the current year statements.

** Investment income ratio amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the subaccount from the Underlying Fund net of management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by the average net assets. These ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense risk and administrative charges, that result in direct reductions in the unit values. The recognition of investment income by the subaccount is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the Underlying Fund in which the subaccounts invest. Therefore, the Investment Income Ratio is greatly affected by the amount of subaccount assets that are present on specific dividend record dates.

*** Expense ratio amounts represent the annualized contract expenses of the subaccount, consisting primarily of mortality and expense risk and administrative charges, for each period indicated. The ratios include only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values. Charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units and expenses of the underlying fund are excluded.

**** Total return amounts represent the total return for the periods indicated, including changes in the fair value of the Underlying Fund, which includes expenses assessed through the reduction of unit values. The ratio does not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units. Subaccounts with a date notation indicate the effective date of that investment option in the variable account. The total return is calculated for the period indicated or from the effective date through the end of the reporting period.

Report of Independent Auditors

The Board of Directors
National Integrity Life Insurance Company

We have audited the accompanying statutory-basis financial statements of National Integrity Life Insurance Company (the Company), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related statements of operations, changes in capital and surplus, and cash flow for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes to the financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the New York Department of Financial Services, Division of Insurance. Management also is responsible for the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
As described in Note 1 to the statutory-basis financial statements, the Company prepared these financial statements using accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the New York Department of Financial Services, Division of Insurance, which is a basis of accounting other than U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The variances between such practices and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and the effects on the accompanying financial statements are described in Note 1.

Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
In our opinion, because of the significance of the matter described in the Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles paragraph, the statutory-basis financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2020 and 2019, or the results of its operations or its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020.

Opinion on Statutory-Basis of Accounting
In our opinion, the statutory-basis financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, on the basis of accounting described in Note 1.

1. Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Policies
National Integrity Life Insurance Company (the Company) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Integrity Life Insurance Company (Integrity), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Western and Southern Life Insurance Company (Western and Southern). The Company, domiciled in the state of New York and currently licensed in eight states and the District of Columbia, specializes in the asset accumulation business with particular emphasis on retirement savings and investment products. The Company also offers interest-sensitive life insurance products. For the year ended December 31, 2020, approximately 93.7% of the gross premiums and annuity considerations for the Company were derived from New York. Fort Washington Investment Advisors, Inc. (Fort Washington), a registered investment adviser, is a nonlife insurance subsidiary of Western and Southern and is the investment manager for the Company.
State regulatory authorities have powers relating to granting and revoking licenses to transact business, the licensing of agents, the regulation of premium rates and trade practices, the form and content of insurance policies, the content of advertising material, financial statements and the nature of permitted practices.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of statutory-basis financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the New York Department of Financial Services, Division of Insurance (the Department). The National Association of Insurance Commissioners’ (NAIC) Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual (NAIC SAP or SSAP) has been adopted as a component of prescribed or permitted practices by the State of New York. These practices differ in some respects from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The more significant differences follow.
Investments
Investments in debt securities and mandatory redeemable preferred stocks are reported at amortized cost or fair value based on the NAIC rating; for GAAP, such fixed maturity investments are designated at purchase as held-to-maturity, trading or available-for-sale. Held-to-maturity fixed investments are reported at amortized cost, and the remaining fixed maturity investments are reported at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in the statement of operations for those designated as trading and as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss) for those designated as available-for-sale.

All single-class and multiclass mortgage-backed/asset-backed securities (e.g., CMOs) are adjusted for the effects of changes in prepayment assumptions on the related accretion of discount or amortization of premium of such securities using the retrospective method. The prospective method is used to determine amortized cost for securities that experience a decline that is deemed to be other-than-temporary. Securities that are in an unrealized loss position which the Company intends to sell, or does not have the intent and ability to hold until recovery, are written down to fair value as a realized loss. Securities that are in an unrealized loss position which the Company has the intent and ability to hold until recovery are written down to the extent the present value of expected future cash flows using the security’s effective yield is lower than the amortized cost. For GAAP purposes, all securities, purchased or retained, that represent beneficial interests in securitized assets (e.g., CMO, CBO, CDO, CLO, MBS and ABS securities), other than high credit quality securities, are adjusted using the prospective method when there is a change in estimated future cash flows. If it is determined that a decline in fair value is other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the security is written down to the extent the present value of expected future cash flows using the security’s effective yield is lower than the amortized cost. If high credit quality securities are adjusted, the retrospective method is used.
The Company monitors other investments to determine if there has been an other-than-temporary decline in fair value. Factors that management considers for each identified security include the following:
The extent and length of time the fair value has been below the book/adjusted carrying value;
The reasons for the decline in value;
Specific credit issues related to the issuer and current economic conditions, including the current and future impact of any specific events;
For structured investments (e.g., residential mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities and other structured investments), factors such as overall deal structure and the Company’s position within the structure, quality of underlying collateral, delinquencies and defaults, loss severities, recoveries, prepayments and cumulative loss projections are considered;
For all equity securities and other debt securities with credit-related declines in fair value, the Company’s intent and ability to hold the security long enough for it to recover its value to book/adjusted carrying value; and
For all other debt securities with interest-related declines in fair value, the Company’s intent to sell the security before recovery of its book/adjusted carrying value.
If the decline is judged to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge to fair value is recorded as a net realized capital loss in the period the determination is made. Under GAAP, if the decline is judged to be other-than-temporary because the Company has the intent to sell the debt security or is more likely than not to be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery, an impairment charge to fair value is recorded as a net realized capital loss. If the decline is judged to be other-than-temporary because the Company does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security due to expected credit losses, an impairment charge is recorded to net realized capital loss as the difference between amortized cost and the net present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate implicit in the debt security prior to impairment.

Under a formula prescribed by the NAIC, the Company defers the portion of realized capital gains and losses on sales of fixed income investments, principally debt securities and mortgage loans, attributable to changes in the general level of interest rates and amortizes those deferrals over the remaining period to maturity of the individual security sold using the seriatim method. The net deferral is reported as the interest maintenance reserve (IMR) in the accompanying balance sheets. Realized capital gains and losses are reported in income net of federal income tax and transfers to the IMR. Under GAAP, realized capital gains and losses are reported in the the statements of operations on a pretax basis in the period that the assets giving rise to the gains or losses are sold.
The asset valuation reserve (AVR) provides a valuation allowance for invested assets. The AVR is determined by an NAIC prescribed formula with changes reflected directly in capital and surplus. AVR is not recognized for GAAP.
Policy Acquisition Costs
The costs of acquiring and renewing business are expensed when incurred. Under GAAP, policy acquisition costs, related to traditional life insurance and certain long-duration accident and health insurance policies sold, to the extent recoverable from future policy revenues, would be deferred and amortized over the premium-paying period of the related policies using assumptions consistent with those used in computing policy benefit reserves; for universal life insurance and investment products, to the extent recoverable from future gross profits, deferred policy acquisition costs are amortized generally in proportion to the present value of expected gross profits from surrender charges and investments, mortality, and expense margins.
Nonadmitted Assets
Certain assets designated as “nonadmitted” (principally a portion of deferred tax assets), and other assets not specifically identified as admitted assets within the NAIC’s Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual, are excluded from the accompanying balance sheets and are charged directly to accumulated surplus. Under GAAP, such assets are included in the balance sheets.
Premiums and Benefits
Revenues for universal life and annuity policies with mortality or morbidity risk, except for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts, consist of the entire premium received, and benefits incurred represent the total of death benefits paid and the change in policy reserves. Premiums received for annuity policies without mortality or morbidity risk and for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts are recorded using deposit accounting, and credited directly to an appropriate policy reserve account, without recognizing premium income. Under GAAP, premiums received in excess of policy charges would not be recognized as premium revenue and benefits would represent the excess of benefits paid over the policy account value and interest credited to the account values.
Benefit Reserves
Certain policy reserves are calculated using statutorily prescribed interest and mortality assumptions rather than on estimated expected experience or actual account balances as would be required under GAAP.

December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018
Reinsurance
A liability for reinsurance balances is required to be provided for unsecured policy reserves ceded to reinsurers not authorized to assume such business. Changes to those amounts are credited or charged directly to capital and surplus. Under GAAP, an allowance for amounts deemed uncollectible would be established through a charge to earnings.
Policy and contract liabilities ceded to reinsurers have been reported as reductions of the related reserves rather than as assets as would be required under GAAP. Commissions allowed by reinsurers on business ceded are reported as income when incurred rather than being deferred and amortized with policy acquisition costs as required under GAAP.
Deferred Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets are recorded for the amount of gross deferred tax assets expected to be realized in future years, and a valuation allowance is established for deferred tax assets not meeting a more-likely-than-not realization threshold. Deferred tax assets are limited to 1) the amount of federal income taxes paid in prior years that can be recovered through loss carrybacks for existing temporary differences that reverse during a time frame corresponding with Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tax loss carryback provisions, not to exceed three years, including amounts established in accordance with the provision of SSAP No. 5R, plus 2) for entities who meet the required realization threshold in SSAP No. 101, the lesser of the remaining gross deferred tax assets expected to be realized within three years of the balance sheet date or 15% of capital and surplus excluding any net deferred tax assets, electronic data processing equipment and operating software and any net positive goodwill, plus 3) the amount of remaining gross deferred tax assets that can be offset against existing gross deferred tax liabilities. The remaining deferred tax assets are nonadmitted. Under GAAP, a deferred tax asset is recorded for the amount of gross deferred tax assets expected to be realized in all future years, and a valuation allowance is established for deferred tax assets not meeting a more-likely-than-not realization threshold.
Statements of Cash Flow
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments in the statements of cash flow represent cash balances and investments with initial maturities of one year or less. Under GAAP, the corresponding captions of cash and cash equivalents include cash balances and investments with initial maturities of three months or less.
Other significant statutory accounting practices follow.

Restricted Assets
The Company has assets pledged as collateral, or otherwise not exclusively under control of the Company, totaling $173.7 million and $162.8 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These assets are primarily collateral pledged to the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB). These restricted assets are discussed in more detail in their relevant section.
Investments
Debt securities, common stocks, preferred stocks, and short-term investments are stated at values prescribed by the NAIC, as follows:
Debt securities not backed by other loans are principally stated at amortized cost using the interest method.
Single-class and multiclass mortgage-backed/asset-backed securities are valued at amortized cost using the interest method including anticipated prepayments. Prepayment assumptions are obtained from Bloomberg and broker-dealer prepayment models or derived from empirical data and are based on the current interest rate and economic environment. The retrospective adjustment method is used to value all such securities except securities that are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired and securities that are principal-only or interest-only, which are valued using the prospective method.
Unaffiliated common stocks, other than FHLB stock, are unrestricted and reported at fair value utilizing publicly quoted prices from third-party pricing services and the related unrealized capital gains and losses are reported in capital and surplus along with any adjustment for federal income taxes. FHLB stock is carried at cost and is restricted. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company owned $9.5 million and $9.5 million, of FHLB stock, respectively. The FHLB stock is held in conjunction with the issuance of deposit contracts to the FHLB. See Note 9 for further description.
Redeemable preferred stocks that have characteristics of debt securities and are rated as medium quality or better are reported at cost or amortized cost. All other redeemable preferred stocks are reported at the lower of cost, amortized cost or fair value. Perpetual preferred stocks that have the characteristics of equity securities and are rated as medium quality or better are reported at cost. All other perpetual preferred stocks are reported at the lower of cost or fair value utilizing publicly quoted prices from third-party pricing services and the related unrealized capital gains and losses are reported in capital and surplus along with any adjustment for federal income taxes.
Short-term investments include investments with remaining maturities of one year or less at the date of acquisition and are principally stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.
Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are principally stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.
Joint ventures, partnerships, and limited liability companies are carried at the Company’s interest in the underlying audited GAAP equity of the investee. Undistributed earnings allocated to the Company are reported in the change in net unrealized capital gains or losses. Distributions from earnings of the
11

National Integrity Life Insurance Company
Notes to Financial Statements (Statutory-Basis)
December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018
investees are reported as net investment income when received. Because of the indirect nature of these investments, there is an inherent reduction in transparency and liquidity and increased complexity in valuing the underlying investments. As a result, these investments are actively managed by the Company’s management via detailed evaluation of the investment performance relative to risk.
Mortgage loans are reported at unpaid principal balances, less an allowance for impairment. A mortgage loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all principal and interest amounts due according to the contractual terms of the mortgage agreement. When management determines foreclosure is probable, the impairment is other than temporary; the mortgage loan is written down to realizable value and a realized loss is recognized.
Policy loans are reported at unpaid principal balances.
Debt securities and other loan interest are credited to income as it accrues. Dividends are recorded as income on ex-dividend dates. To the extent income is uncertain, due and accrued income is excluded and treated as nonadmitted through surplus.
Realized capital gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method.
Premiums
Life and accident and health premiums are recognized as revenue when due. Premiums for annuity policies with mortality and morbidity risk, except for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts, are also recognized as revenue when due. Premiums received for annuity policies without mortality or morbidity risk and for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts are recorded using deposit accounting.
Policy Reserves
Life and annuity reserves are developed by actuarial methods and are determined based on published tables using statutorily specified interest rates and valuation methods that will provide, in the aggregate, reserves that are greater than or equal to the minimum or guaranteed policy cash values or the amounts required by the Department. The Company waives deduction of deferred fractional premiums on the death of life and annuity policy insureds and does not return any premium beyond the date of death. Surrender values on policies do not exceed the corresponding benefit reserves. Policies issued subject to multiple table substandard extra premiums are valued on the standard reserve basis which recognizes the nonlevel incidence of the excess mortality costs. Additional reserves are established when the results of cash flow testing under various interest rate scenarios indicate the need for such reserves, or the net premiums exceed the gross premiums on any insurance in-force.
For policies issued in 2020 or after, life insurance reserves are developed using principle-based policyholder and asset assumptions with margins and floored at formulaic reserves based upon published tables using statutorily specified interest rates and valuation methods.

12

National Integrity Life Insurance Company
Notes to Financial Statements (Statutory-Basis)
December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018
The mean reserve method is used to adjust the calculated terminal reserve to the appropriate reserve at December 31. Mean reserves are determined by computing the regular mean reserve for the plan at the rated age and holding, in addition, one-half of the extra premium charge for the year. Policies issued after July 1 for substandard lives, are charged an extra premium plus the regular premium for the true age. Mean reserves are based on appropriate multiples of standard rates of mortality. An asset is recorded for deferred premiums net of loading to adjust the reserve for modal premium payments.
For substandard table ratings, mean reserves are based on 125% to 500% of standard mortality rates. For flat extra ratings, mean reserves are based on the standard or substandard mortality rates increased by 1 to 25 deaths per thousand.
Tabular interest, tabular less actual reserves released, and tabular cost have been determined by formula as prescribed by the NAIC. Tabular interest on funds not involving life contingencies was derived from basic data.
Variable annuities are reserved under VM-21 and are based on principle-based policyholder and asset assumptions with margins and floored at cash values and additional prescribed NY Regulation 213 methods and assumptions.
Contracts issued that do not incorporate mortality or morbidity risk, such as guaranteed interest contracts, are accounted for as deposit-type contracts. Amounts received as payments and amounts withdrawn on deposit-type contracts are recorded directly to the liability for deposit-type contracts.
The establishment of appropriate reserves is an inherently uncertain process, and there can be no assurance that the ultimate liability will not exceed the Company’s policy reserves and have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. Due to the inherent uncertainty of estimating reserves, it has been necessary, and may over time continue to be necessary, to revise estimated future liabilities as reflected in the Company’s policy reserves.
Reinsurance
Reinsurance premiums and benefits paid or provided are accounted for on a basis consistent with those used in accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of the reinsurance contracts.
Securities Lending
At December 31, 2020, the Company had loaned various debt securities, preferred stocks and common stocks as part of a securities lending program administered by Deutsche Bank, of which the fair value was $51.2 million and $15.6 million in the general and separate account, respectively. At December 31, 2019, the Company had loaned various debt securities, preferred stocks and common stocks as part of a securities lending program administered by Deutsche Bank, of which the fair value was $39.8 million and $7.0 million in the general and separate account, respectively. The Company maintains effective control over all loaned securities and, therefore, continues to report such securities as invested assets in the balance sheets.
13

National Integrity Life Insurance Company
Notes to Financial Statements (Statutory-Basis)
December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018
The Company requires at the initial transaction that the fair value of the cash collateral received must be equal to 102% of the fair value of the loaned securities. The Company monitors the ratio of the fair value of the collateral to loaned securities to ensure it does not fall below 100%. If the fair value of the collateral falls below 100% of the fair value of the securities loaned, the Company nonadmits that portion of the loaned security. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not nonadmit any portion of the loaned securities.
The Company reports all collateral on the balance sheet with an offsetting liability recognized for the obligation to return the collateral. Collateral for the securities lending program is managed by Deutsche Bank, an unaffiliated agent. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, total collateral, which approximated $68.4 million and $47.8 million, respectively, was invested in cash equivalents and was included in securities lending reinvested collateral assets on the balance sheet.
At December 31, 2020, the collateral for all securities on loan could be requested to be returned on demand by the borrower. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the fair value of the total collateral in the general account was $52.4 million and $40.7 million. The fair value of the total collateral in the separate account was $16.0 million and $7.1 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, which was all managed by an unaffiliated agent.
The aggregate collateral broken out by maturity date is as follows at December 31, 2020:

National Integrity Life Insurance Company
Notes to Financial Statements (Statutory-Basis)
December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018
The Company does not accept collateral that is not permitted by contract or custom to sell or repledge. The Company does not have any securities lending transactions that extend beyond one year from the reporting date.
Separate Accounts
Separate account assets and liabilities reported in the accompanying balance sheets represent funds that are separately administered, principally for nonguaranteed variable annuity contracts and guaranteed market value adjustment annuity contracts. Assets held in the separate account supporting variable annuities are carried at fair value. Assets held in the separate account supporting market value adjusted annuities are carried at the general account basis. These separate account assets are considered legally insulated from the general account. Surrender charges collectible by the general account in the event of annuity contract surrenders are reported as a negative liability rather than an asset. Policy-related activity involving cash flow, such as premiums and benefits, are reported in the accompanying statements of operations in separate line items combined with related general account amounts. Investment income and interest credited on deposits held in guaranteed separate accounts are included in the accompanying statements of operations as a net amount included in net transfers to (from) separate accounts. The Company receives administrative fees for managing the nonguaranteed separate accounts and other fees for assuming mortality and certain expense risks.
Federal Income Taxes
Western and Southern files a consolidated income tax return with its eligible subsidiaries and affiliates, including the Company. The provision for federal income taxes is allocated to the Company using a separate return method based upon a written tax-sharing agreement. The benefits from losses of subsidiaries and affiliates, which are utilized in the consolidated return, will be retained by the subsidiaries and affiliates under the tax-sharing agreement. Western and Southern pays all federal income taxes due for all members of the consolidated group. The Company will then charge or reimburse, as the case may be, the members of the group an amount consistent with the method described in the tax-sharing agreement.
The Company includes interest and penalties in the federal income tax line on the statements of operations.
Accounting Changes
The Company did not have any material accounting changes in 2020, 2019, or 2018.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is exposed to risk associated with the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and is actively monitoring developments through governmental briefings and the relevant health authorities. The effects of the outbreak on the Company are uncertain and difficult to predict, as the situation continues to evolve. Risks include (but are not limited to) the disruption of business operations due to changing work environments for employees, agents and distributors, and business partners; potential economic hardship of policyholders and issuers of investments held by the Company; and disruptions of

product marketing and sales efforts. The Company has business continuity plans in place to mitigate the risks posed to business operations by disruptive incidents such as these.
Subsequent Events
The Company recognizes in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the balance sheet date. For nonrecognized subsequent events that must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading, the Company is required to disclose the nature of the event as well as an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Management has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of these financial statements on April 13, 2021.

3. Fair Values of Financial Instruments
Included in various investment-related line items in the financial statements are certain financial instruments carried at fair value. Other financial instruments are periodically measured at fair value such as when impaired or, for certain bonds and preferred stocks, when carried at the lower of cost or market.
The Company uses fair value measurements to record the fair value of certain assets and liabilities and to estimate the fair value of financial instruments not recorded at fair value but required to be disclosed at fair value. Certain financial instruments, particularly policyholder liabilities other than investment-type contracts, are excluded from this fair value discussion.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value have been classified, for disclosure purposes, based on the following hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out of levels at the beginning of the quarterly reporting period.
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company’s Level 1 assets and liabilities primarily include exchange-traded equity securities and mutual funds, including those which are part of the Company’s separate account assets.
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The Company’s Level 2 assets and liabilities primarily include municipal bonds, NAIC 6 industrial and miscellaneous bonds, and initially rated NAIC 6 residential mortgage-backed securities representing senior and subordinated tranches in securitization trusts containing residential mortgage loans, including those which are part of the Company's separate account assets. The Company determined fair value through the use of third-party pricing services utilizing market observable inputs.
Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The Company does not have any significant assets or liabilities carried at fair value that meet the definition of Level 3.
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on available market information and judgments about the financial instrument, including discount rates, estimates of timing, amount of expected future cash flows and the credit standing of the issuer. Such estimates do not consider the tax impact of the realization of unrealized gains or losses.
For Level 3 investments, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets. In addition, the disclosed fair value may not be realized in the immediate settlement of the financial instrument.
Certain investments utilize net asset value (NAV) as a practical expedient for fair value. These investments are reported separately from the hierarchy. Common stock utilizing NAV consists of an investment in a business development corporation as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940.

National Integrity Life Insurance Company
Notes to Financial Statements (Statutory-Basis)
December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018
The investment can be sold or transferred with prior consent from the corporation. The NAV for this investment is $14.97. The Company does not intend to sell any investments utilizing NAV.
As described below, certain fair values are determined through the use of third-party pricing services. Management does not adjust prices received from third parties; however, the Company does analyze the third-party pricing services’ valuation methodologies and related inputs and performs additional evaluation to determine the appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy. The Company performs annual due diligence of third-party pricing services, which includes assessing the vendor’s valuation qualifications, control environment, analysis of asset class-specific valuation methodologies and understanding of market observable assumptions and unobservable assumptions, if any, employed in the valuation methodology. Care should be exercised in deriving conclusions about the Company’s business, its value or financial position based on the fair value information of financial instruments presented below. The following discussion describes the valuation methodologies utilized by the Company for assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value.
Debt and Equity Securities
The fair values of debt securities and asset/mortgage-backed securities have been determined through the use of third-party pricing services utilizing market observable inputs. Private placement securities trading in less liquid or illiquid markets with limited or no pricing information are valued using either broker quotes or by discounting the expected cash flows using current market-consistent rates applicable to the yield, credit quality and maturity of each security.
The fair values of actively traded equity securities and exchange traded funds (including exchange traded funds with debt like characteristics) have been determined utilizing publicly quoted prices obtained from third-party pricing services. The fair values of certain equity securities for which no publicly quoted prices are available have been determined through the use of third-party pricing services utilizing market observable inputs. Actively traded mutual funds are valued using the net asset values of the funds.
Mortgage Loans
The fair values for mortgage loans, consisting principally of commercial real estate loans, are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for similar loans collateralized by properties with similar investment risk. The fair values for mortgage loans in default are established at the lower of the fair value of the underlying collateral less costs to sell or the carrying amount of the loan.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments
The fair values of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are based on quoted market prices or stated amounts.
Securities Lending Reinvested Collateral Assets
The fair values of securities lending reinvested collateral assets are determined through the use of third-party sources utilizing publicly quoted prices.
25

Notes to Financial Statements (Statutory-Basis)
December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018
Other Invested Assets
Other invested assets primarily include surplus debentures for which fair values have been determined through the use of third-party pricing services utilizing market observable inputs.
Assets Held in Separate Accounts
Assets held in separate accounts primarily include debt securities, equity securities, mutual funds and mortgage loans. The fair values of these assets have been determined using the same methodologies as similar assets held in the general account.
Life and Annuity Reserves for Investment-Type Contracts and Deposit Fund Liabilities
The fair value of liabilities for investment-type contracts is based on the present value of estimated liability cash flows, which are discounted using rates that incorporate risk-free rates and margins for the Company’s own credit spread and the riskiness of cash flows. Key assumptions to the cash flow model include the timing of policyholder withdrawals and the level of interest credited to contract balances. Fair values for insurance reserves are not required to be disclosed. However, the estimated fair values of all insurance reserves and investment contracts are taken into consideration in the Company’s overall management of interest rate risk.
Securities Lending Liability
The liability represents the Company’s obligation to return collateral related to securities lending transactions. The liability is short-term in nature and therefore, the fair value of the obligation approximates the carrying amount.
Separate Account Liabilities
Certain separate account liabilities are classified as investment contracts and are carried at an amount equal to the related separate account assets. Carrying value is a reasonable estimate of the fair value as it represents the exit value as evidenced by withdrawal transactions between contract holders and the Company.

At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had $69.5 million and $65.3 million respectively, invested in various private debt funds managed by Fort Washington.
The Company did not have any amounts receivable from parent, subsidiaries and affiliates as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company had $1.5 million and $1.7 million payable to parent, subsidiaries and affiliates as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Western and Southern guarantees the payment of the Company’s policyholder obligations. In the unlikely event the guarantee would be triggered, Western and Southern may be permitted to take control of the Company’s assets to recover all or a portion of the amounts paid under the guarantee.

5. Reinsurance
Certain premiums and benefits are ceded to other insurance companies under various reinsurance agreements. The ceded insurance agreements provide the Company with increased capacity to write larger risks and maintain its exposure to loss within its capital resources.

In 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not commute any ceded reinsurance nor did it enter into or engage in any agreement that reinsures policies or contracts that were in-force or had existing reserves as of the effective date of such agreements.
At December 31, 2020, the Company has no reserves ceded to unauthorized reinsurers. Amounts payable or recoverable for reinsurance on policy and contract liabilities are not subject to periodic or maximum limits.
Neither the Company nor any of its related parties, control directly or indirectly, any reinsurers with whom the Company conducts business. No policies issued by the Company have been reinsured with a foreign company, which is controlled, either directly or indirectly, by a party not primarily engaged in the business of insurance. The Company does not have any reinsurance agreements in effect under which the reinsurer may unilaterally cancel the agreement. At December 31, 2020, there are no reinsurance agreements in effect such that the amount of losses paid or accrued exceed the total direct premium collected. The Company remains obligated for amounts ceded in the event that the reinsurers do not meet their obligations.
There would be no reduction in surplus at December 31, 2020, if all reinsurance agreements were cancelled.

10. Separate Accounts
The Company’s guaranteed separate account consists of non-indexed, guaranteed rate options that include market value adjustments. The guaranteed rate options are sold in fixed annuity products and as investment options within the Company’s variable annuity products. These guaranteed rate options carry a minimum interest guarantee based on the guarantee period selected by the policyholder. The fixed annuity products offered provide a death benefit equal to the account value. The fixed investment options within the Company’s variable annuity products provide the death benefits listed below for variable annuities.
The Company’s nonguaranteed separate accounts consist of subaccounts available through variable annuities and group variable universal life insurance. The net investment experience of each subaccount is credited directly to the policyholder and can be positive or negative. The variable annuities include guaranteed minimum death benefits that vary by product and include optional death benefits available on some products. The death benefits offered by the Company include the following: account value, return of premium paid, a death benefit that is adjusted after seven years to the current account value, and a death benefit that is adjusted annually to the current account value. Some variable annuities also provide living benefits, which include guaranteed accumulation amounts on a date certain, guaranteed minimum withdrawal amounts and guaranteed minimum lifetime withdrawal amounts. The death benefit under the group variable universal life insurance policies may vary with the investment performance of the underlying investments in the separate accounts.
To compensate the general account for risk taken, the separate accounts paid risk charges of $1.2 million, $1.2 million, $1.4 million, $1.1 million and $0.9 million in 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, and 2016, respectively. The Company’s general account paid $0.1 million, $0.0 million, $0.2 million, $0.1 million and $0.1 million towards separate account guarantees in 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, and 2016, respectively.

Report of Independent Auditors

The Board of Directors
The Western and Southern Life Insurance Company

We have audited the accompanying statutory-basis financial statements of The Western and Southern Life Insurance Company (the Company), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related statements of operations, changes in capital and surplus, and cash flow for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes to the financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Ohio Department of Insurance. Management also is responsible for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
As described in Note 1 to the statutory-basis financial statements, the Company prepared these financial statements using accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Ohio Department of Insurance, which is a basis of accounting other than U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The variances between such practices and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and the effects on the accompanying financial statements are described in Note 1.

Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
In our opinion, because of the significance of the matter described in the Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles paragraph, the statutory-basis financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2020 and 2019, or the results of its operations or its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020.

Opinion on Statutory-Basis of Accounting
In our opinion, the statutory-basis financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, on the basis of accounting described in Note 1.

1. Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Policies
The Western and Southern Life Insurance Company (the Company) is a stock life insurance company that offers primarily individual traditional and whole life insurance policies. The Company is licensed in 46 states and the District of Columbia. For the year ended December 31, 2020, approximately 68.7% of the gross premiums and annuity considerations for the Company were derived from California, Illinois, Indiana, North Carolina, Ohio, and Pennslyvania. The Company is domiciled in Ohio. The Company is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Western & Southern Mutual Holding Company (Mutual Holding), a mutual holding company formed pursuant to the insurance regulations of the State of Ohio. Ohio law requires Mutual Holding to hold at least a majority voting interest in the Company. Currently, Mutual Holding indirectly holds 100% of the voting interest through Western & Southern Financial Group, Inc. (WSFG), its wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company wholly owns the following insurance entities: Western-Southern Life Assurance Company (WSLAC), Columbus Life Insurance Company (Columbus Life), Integrity Life Insurance Company (Integrity) and Gerber Life Insurance Company (Gerber Life). Integrity Life Insurance Company wholly owns National Integrity Life Insurance Company (National).
State regulatory authorities have powers relating to granting and revoking licenses to transact business, the licensing of agents, the regulation of premium rates and trade practices, the form and content of insurance policies, the content of advertising material, financial statements and the nature of permitted practices.
Included within the financial statements, the Company has established and operates a closed block for the benefit of holders of most participating individual ordinary and weekly industrial life insurance policies issued on or before the formation of Mutual Holding in 2000 (the Closed Block). Assets have been allocated to the Closed Block in an amount that is expected to produce cash flows which, together with anticipated revenue from the policies included in the Closed Block, are reasonably expected to be sufficient to support the Closed Block policies, the continuation of policyholder dividends, in aggregate, in accordance with the 2000 dividend scale if the experience underlying such scale continues, and for appropriate adjustments in the dividend scale if the experience changes. Invested assets allocated to the Closed Block consist primarily of high-quality debt securities, mortgage loans, policy loans, short-term investments, other invested assets, and securities lending reinvested collateral. Invested assets of $1,979.7 million and $1,993.5 million were allocated to the Closed Block as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The assets allocated to the Closed Block inure solely for the benefit of the Closed Block policyholders and will not revert to the benefit of the Company. The purpose of the Closed Block is to protect the policy dividend expectations of these policies after the formation of Mutual Holding. The Closed Block will continue in effect until the last policy in the Closed Block is no longer in force.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of statutory-basis financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Notes to Financial Statements (Statutory-Basis)

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Ohio Department of Insurance (the Department). The National Association of Insurance Commissioners’ (NAIC) Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual (NAIC SAP or SSAP) has been adopted as a component of prescribed or permitted practices by the State of Ohio. These practices differ in some respects from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The more significant differences follow.
Investments
Investments in debt securities and mandatory redeemable preferred stocks are reported at amortized cost or fair value based on the NAIC’s rating; for GAAP, such fixed maturity investments are designated at purchase as held-to-maturity, trading or available-for-sale. Held-to-maturity fixed investments are reported at amortized cost, and the remaining fixed maturity investments are reported at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in the statement of operations for those designated as trading and as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss) for those designated as available-for-sale.
All single-class and multiclass mortgage-backed/asset-backed securities (e.g., CMOs) are adjusted for the effects of changes in prepayment assumptions on the related accretion of discount or amortization of premium of such securities using the retrospective method. The prospective method is used to determine amortized cost for securities that experience a decline that is deemed to be other-than-temporary. Securities that are in an unrealized loss position which the Company intends to sell, or does not have the intent and ability to hold until recovery, are written down to fair value as a realized loss. Securities that are in an unrealized loss position which the Company has the intent and ability to hold until recovery are written down to the extent the present value of expected future cash flows using the security’s effective yield is lower than the amortized cost. For GAAP purposes, all securities, purchased or retained, that represent beneficial interests in securitized assets (e.g., CMO, CBO, CDO, CLO, MBS and ABS securities), other than high credit quality securities, are adjusted using the prospective method when there is a change in estimated future cash flows. If it is determined that a decline in fair value is other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the security is written down to the extent the present value of expected future cash flows using the security’s effective yield is lower than the amortized cost. If high credit quality securities are adjusted, the retrospective method is used.
The Company monitors other investments to determine if there has been an other-than-temporary decline in fair value. Factors that management considers for each identified security include the following:
The extent and length of time the fair value has been below the book/adjusted carrying value;
The reasons for the decline in value;
Specific credit issues related to the issuer and current economic conditions, including the current and future impact of any specific events;
For structured investments (e.g., residential mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities and other structured investments), factors such as overall deal structure and the Company’s position within the structure, quality of underlying collateral, delinquencies and defaults, loss severities, recoveries, prepayments and cumulative loss projections are considered;
8

The Western and Southern Life Insurance Company
Notes to Financial Statements (Statutory-Basis)
December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018
For all equity securities and other debt securities with credit-related declines in fair value, the Company’s intent and ability to hold the security long enough for it to recover its value to book/adjusted carrying value; and
For all other debt securities with interest-related declines in fair value, the Company’s intent to sell the security before recovery of its book/adjusted carrying value.
If the decline is judged to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge to fair value is recorded as a net realized capital loss in the period the determination is made. Under GAAP, if the decline is judged to be other-than-temporary because the Company has the intent to sell the debt security or is more likely than not to be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery, an impairment charge to fair value is recorded as a net realized capital loss. If the decline is judged to be other-than-temporary because the Company does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security due to expected credit losses, an impairment charge is recorded to net realized capital loss as the difference between amortized cost and the net present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate implicit in the debt security prior to impairment.
Investments in real estate are reported net of required obligations rather than on a gross basis as for GAAP. Real estate owned and occupied by the Company is included in investments rather than reported as an operating asset as under GAAP, and investment income and operating expenses include rent for the Company’s occupancy of those properties.
Under a formula prescribed by the NAIC, the Company defers the portion of realized capital gains and losses on sales of fixed income investments, principally debt securities and mortgage loans, attributable to changes in the general level of interest rates and amortizes those deferrals over the remaining period to maturity based on groupings of individual security sold in five-year bands. The net deferral is reported as the interest maintenance reserve (IMR) in the accompanying balance sheets. Realized capital gains and losses are reported in income net of federal income tax and transfers to the IMR. Under GAAP, realized capital gains and losses are reported in the statement of operations on a pretax basis in the period that the assets giving rise to the gains or losses are sold.
The asset valuation reserve (AVR) provides a valuation allowance for invested assets. The AVR is determined by an NAIC prescribed formula with changes reflected directly in capital and surplus. AVR is not recognized for GAAP.
Subsidiaries
The accounts and operations of the Company’s subsidiaries are not consolidated with the accounts and operations of the Company as would be required under GAAP.

Policy Acquisition Costs
The costs of acquiring and renewing business are expensed when incurred. Under GAAP, policy acquisition costs, related to traditional life insurance and certain long-duration accident and health insurance policies sold, to the extent recoverable from future policy revenues, would be deferred and amortized over the premium-paying period of the related policies using assumptions consistent with those used in computing policy benefit reserves; for universal life insurance and investment products, to the extent recoverable from future gross profits, deferred policy acquisition costs are amortized generally in proportion to the present value of expected gross profits from surrender charges and investments, mortality, and expense margins.
Nonadmitted Assets
Certain assets designated as “nonadmitted” (principally investments in unaudited subsidiaries and controlled and affiliated entities, goodwill in excess of the admission limit, and a trademark license agreement), and other assets not specifically identified as admitted assets within the NAIC’s Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual, are excluded from the accompanying balance sheets and are charged directly to accumulated surplus. Under GAAP, such assets are included in the balance sheets.
Premiums and Benefits
Revenues for universal life and annuity policies with mortality or morbidity risk, except for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts, consist of the entire premium received, and benefits incurred represent the total of death benefits paid and the change in policy reserves. Premiums received for annuity policies without mortality or morbidity risk and for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts are recorded using deposit accounting, and credited directly to an appropriate policy reserve account, without recognizing premium income. Under GAAP, premiums received in excess of policy charges would not be recognized as premium revenue and benefits would represent the excess of benefits paid over the policy account value and interest credited to the account values.
Benefit Reserves
Certain policy reserves are calculated using statutorily prescribed interest and mortality assumptions rather than on estimated expected experience or actual account balances as would be required under GAAP.
Reinsurance
A liability for reinsurance balances is required to be provided for unsecured policy reserves ceded to reinsurers not authorized to assume such business. Changes to those amounts are credited or charged directly to capital and surplus. Under GAAP, an allowance for amounts deemed uncollectible would be established through a charge to earnings.
Policy and contract liabilities ceded to reinsurers have been reported as reductions of the related reserves rather than as assets as would be required under GAAP. Commissions allowed by reinsurers on business ceded are reported as income when incurred rather than being deferred and amortized with policy acquisition costs as required under GAAP.

For purposes of calculating the Company’s pension and postretirement benefit obligations, vested participants, non-vested participants and current retirees are included in the valuation. The prepaid pension asset resulting from the excess of the fair value of plan assets over the benefit obligation, which is nonadmitted under statutory accounting rules, is included in other comprehensive income under GAAP.
Deferred Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets are recorded for the amount of gross deferred tax assets expected to be realized in future years, and a valuation allowance is established for deferred tax assets not meeting a more-likely-than-not realization threshold. Deferred tax assets are limited to 1) the amount of federal income taxes paid in prior years that can be recovered through loss carrybacks for existing temporary differences that reverse during a time frame corresponding with Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tax loss carryback provisions, not to exceed three years, including amounts established in accordance with the provision of SSAP No. 5R, plus 2) for entities who meet the required realization threshold in SSAP No. 101, the lesser of the remaining gross deferred tax assets expected to be realized within three years of the balance sheet date or 15% of capital and surplus excluding any net deferred tax assets, electronic data processing equipment and operating software and any net positive goodwill, plus 3) the amount of remaining gross deferred tax assets that can be offset against existing gross deferred tax liabilities. The remaining deferred tax assets are nonadmitted. Under GAAP, a deferred tax asset is recorded for the amount of gross deferred tax assets expected to be realized in all future years, and a valuation allowance is established for deferred tax assets not meeting a more-likely-than-not realization threshold.
Policyholder Dividends
Policyholder dividends are recognized when declared rather than over the term of the related policies.
Statements of Cash Flow
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments in the statements of cash flow represent cash balances and investments with initial maturities of one year or less. Under GAAP, the corresponding captions of cash and cash equivalents include cash balances and investments with initial maturities of three months or less.
Other significant statutory accounting practices follow.

Restricted Assets
The Company has assets pledged as collateral, or otherwise not exclusively under control of the Company, totaling $132.6 million and $181.0 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These assets are primarily collateral held in relation to the Company's securities lending program. These restricted assets are discussed in more detail in their relevant section.
Investments
Debt securities, common stocks, preferred stocks, and short-term investments are stated at values prescribed by the NAIC, as follows:
Debt securities not backed by other loans are principally stated at amortized cost using the interest method.
Single-class and multiclass mortgage-backed/asset-backed securities are valued at amortized cost using the interest method including anticipated prepayments. Prepayment assumptions are obtained from Bloomberg and broker-dealer prepayment models or derived from empirical data and are based on the current interest rate and economic environment. The retrospective adjustment method is used to value all such securities except securities that are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired and securities that are principal-only or interest-only, which are valued using the prospective method.
Unaffiliated common stocks are reported at fair value utilizing publicly quoted prices from third-party pricing services and the related unrealized capital gains and losses are reported in capital and surplus along with any adjustment for federal income taxes.
Redeemable preferred stocks that have characteristics of debt securities and are rated as medium quality or better are reported at cost or amortized cost. All other redeemable preferred stocks are reported at the lower of cost, amortized cost or fair value. Perpetual preferred stocks that have the characteristics of equity securities and are rated as medium quality or better are reported at cost. All other perpetual preferred stocks are reported at the lower of cost or fair value utilizing publicly quoted prices from third-party pricing services and the related unrealized capital gains and losses are reported in capital and surplus along with any adjustment for federal income taxes.
There are no restrictions on unaffiliated common or preferred stocks.
Short-term investments include investments with remaining maturities of one year or less at the date of acquisition and are principally stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.
Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are principally stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.
The Company’s insurance subsidiaries are reported at their underlying audited statutory equity. The Company’s noninsurance subsidiaries are reported based on underlying audited GAAP equity. The net change in the subsidiaries’ equity is included in capital and surplus.

Joint ventures, partnerships, and limited liability companies are carried at the Company’s interest in the underlying audited GAAP equity of the investee. Undistributed earnings allocated to the Company are reported in the change in net unrealized capital gains or losses. Distributions from earnings of the investees are reported as net investment income when received. Because of the indirect nature of these investments, there is an inherent reduction in transparency and liquidity and increased complexity in valuing the underlying investments. As a result, these investments are actively managed by the Company’s management via detailed evaluation of the investment performance relative to risk.
Mortgage loans are reported at unpaid principal balances, less an allowance for impairment. A mortgage loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all principal and interest amounts due according to the contractual terms of the mortgage agreement. When management determines foreclosure is probable, the impairment is other than temporary; the mortgage loan is written down to realizable value and a realized loss is recognized.
Policy loans are reported at unpaid principal balances.
Real estate occupied by the Company and real estate held for the production of income are reported at depreciated cost net of related obligations. Real estate that the Company has the intent to sell is reported at the lower of depreciated cost or fair value, net of related obligations. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the properties.
Property acquired in the satisfaction of debt is recorded at the lower of cost less accumulated depreciation or fair market value.
Debt securities and other loan interest are credited to income as it accrues. Dividends are recorded as income on ex-dividend dates. To the extent income is uncertain, due and accrued income is excluded and treated as nonadmitted through surplus.
The Company utilizes customized call and put options to hedge market volatility related to the S&P 500 index . At the beginning of these contracts, a premium is either paid or received for transferring the related risk. The options are not designated as a hedge for accounting purposes and are carried at fair value on the balance sheet with changes in fair value recorded in surplus. The related gains and losses from terminations or expirations are recorded in realized capital gains and losses.
Realized capital gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method.
Premiums
Life and accident and health premiums are recognized as revenue when due. Premiums for annuity policies with mortality and morbidity risk, except for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts, are also recognized as revenue when due. Premiums received for annuity policies without mortality or morbidity risk and for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts are recorded using deposit accounting.

Policy Reserves
Life, annuity and accident and health disability benefit reserves are developed by actuarial methods and are determined based on published tables using statutorily specified interest rates and valuation methods that will provide, in the aggregate, reserves that are greater than or equal to the minimum or guaranteed policy cash values or the amounts required by the Department. The Company waives deduction of deferred fractional premiums on the death of life and annuity policy insureds and does return any premium beyond the date of death. Surrender values on policies do not exceed the corresponding benefit reserves. Policies issued subject to multiple table substandard extra premiums are valued on the standard reserve basis which recognizes the nonlevel incidence of the excess mortality costs. Additional reserves are established when the results of cash flow testing under various interest rate scenarios indicate the need for such reserves, or the net premiums exceed the gross premiums on any insurance in-force.
For policies issued in 2020 or after, life insurance reserves are developed using principle-based policyholder and asset assumptions with margins and floored at formulaic reserves based upon published tables using statutorily specified interest rates and valuation methods.

Formulaic policy reserves for life insurance and supplemental benefits are computed on the Commissioner’s Reserve Valuation Method. The following mortality tables and interest rates are used:

Other benefits (including annuities):
Various, 2-1/2% - 8-1/4%1.2 1.3 
100.0 %100.0 %
The mean reserve method is used to adjust the calculated terminal reserve to the appropriate reserve at December 31. Mean reserves are determined by computing the regular mean reserve for the plan at the rated age and holding, in addition, one-half of the extra premium charge for the year. Policies issued after July 1 for substandard lives, are charged an extra premium plus the regular premium for the true age. Mean reserves are based on appropriate multiples of standard rates of mortality. An asset is recorded for deferred premiums net of loading to adjust the reserve for modal premium payments.
For substandard table ratings, mean reserves are based on 125% to 500% of standard mortality rates. For flat extra ratings, mean reserves are based on the standard or substandard mortality rates increased by 1 to 25 deaths per thousand.

Notes to Financial Statements (Statutory-Basis)
December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018
As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, reserves of $17.2 million and $20.8 million, respectively, were recorded on in-force amounts of $961.2 million and $1,033.8 million, respectively, for which gross premiums are less than the net premiums according to the standard of valuation required by the Department. The Company anticipates investment income as a factor in the premium deficiency calculation for all accident and health contracts.
Tabular interest, tabular less actual reserves released, and tabular cost have been determined by formula. Tabular interest on funds not involving life contingencies is calculated as one-hundredth of the product of such valuation rate of interest times the mean of the amount of funds subject to such valuation rate of interest held at the beginning and end of the year of valuation.
The establishment of appropriate reserves is an inherently uncertain process, and there can be no assurance that the ultimate liability will not exceed the Company’s policy reserves and have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. Due to the inherent uncertainty of estimating reserves, it has been necessary, and may over time continue to be necessary, to revise estimated future liabilities as reflected in the Company’s policy reserves.
Policyholders’ Dividends
The amount of policyholders’ dividends to be paid (including those on policies included in the Closed Block) is determined annually by the Company’s Board of Directors. The aggregate amount of policyholders’ dividends is related to actual interest, mortality, morbidity and expense experience for the year and judgment as to the appropriate level of statutory surplus to be retained by the Company.
Policy and Contract Claims
Policy and contract claims in process of settlement represent the estimated ultimate net cost of all reported and unreported claims incurred through December 31, 2020 and 2019. The reserves for unpaid claims are estimated using individual case-basis valuations and statistical analysis. These estimates are subject to the effects of trends in claim severity and frequency. Although considerable variability is inherent in such estimates, management believes that the reserves for claims are adequate. The estimates are continually reviewed and adjusted as necessary as experience develops or new information becomes known; such adjustments are included in current operations.
Reinsurance
Reinsurance premiums and benefits paid or provided are accounted for on a basis consistent with those used in accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of the reinsurance contracts.

Securities Lending
At December 31, 2020, the Company had loaned various debt securities, preferred stocks and common stocks as part of a securities lending program administered by Deutsche Bank, of which the fair value was $66.0 million and $24.6 million in the general and separate account, respectively. At December 31, 2019, the Company had loaned various debt securities, preferred stocks and common stocks as part of a securities lending program administered by Deutsche Bank, of which the fair value was $77.6 million and $53.0 million in the general and separate account, respectively. The Company maintains effective control over all loaned securities and, therefore, continues to report such securities as invested assets in the balance sheets. The general account collateral is managed by both an affiliated and unaffiliated agent. The separate account is managed by an unaffiliated agent.
The Company requires at the initial transaction that the fair value of the cash collateral received must be equal to 102% of the fair value of the loaned securities. The Company monitors the ratio of the fair value of the collateral to loaned securities to ensure it does not fall below 100%. If the fair value of the collateral falls below 100% of the fair value of the securities loaned, the Company nonadmits that portion of the loaned security. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not nonadmit any portion of the loaned securities.
The Company reports all collateral on the balance sheet with an offsetting liability recognized for the obligation to return the collateral. Collateral for the securities lending program is either managed by an affiliated agent of the Company or is managed by Deutsche Bank, an unaffiliated agent. Collateral managed by an affiliated agent, which approximated $24.6 million and $51.7 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, is invested primarily in investment-grade debt securities and cash equivalents and is included in the applicable amount on the balance sheets because the funds are available for the general use of the Company. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, collateral managed by an unaffiliated agent, which approximated $42.8 million and $27.7 million respectively, was invested in cash equivalents and was included in securities lending reinvested collateral assets on the balance sheet.
At December 31, 2020, the collateral for all securities on loan could be requested to be returned on demand by the borrower. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the fair value of the total collateral in the general account was $67.4 million and $79.4 million, respectively. The fair value of the total collateral in the separate account was $25.1 million and $54.2 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, which was all managed by an unaffiliated agent.
The aggregate collateral broken out by maturity date is as follows at December 31, 2020:

At December 31, 2020, all of the collateral held for the securities lending program was invested in tradable securities that could be sold and used to pay for the $67.5 million and $25.1 million in the general and separate accounts, respectively, in collateral calls that could come due under a worst-case scenario where all collateral was called simultaneously.
The Company does not accept collateral that is not permitted by contract or custom to sell or repledge. The Company does not have any securities lending transactions that extend beyond one year from the reporting date.
Separate Account
The Company maintains a separate account, which holds all of the Company’s pension plan assets. The assets of the separate account consist primarily of marketable securities, which are recorded at fair value. These assets are considered legally insulated from the general accounts.
There are no separate account liabilities that are guaranteed by the general account. (See Note 10 for further discussion on the general account’s responsibility as it relates to the obligations of the Company’s pension plan).
The activity within the separate account, including realized and unrealized gains or losses on its investments, has no effect on net income or capital and surplus of the Company. The Company’s statements of operations reflect annuity payments to pension plan participants and other expenses of the separate account, as well as the reimbursement of such expenses from the separate account.

Federal Income Taxes
The Company files a consolidated income tax return with its eligible subsidiaries and affiliates. The provision for federal income taxes is allocated to the individual companies using a separate return method based upon a written tax-sharing agreement. Under the agreement, the benefits from losses of subsidiaries and affiliates are retained by the subsidiary and affiliated companies. The Company pays all federal income taxes due for all members of the group. The Company then immediately charges or reimburses, as the case may be, the members of the group an amount consistent with the method described in the tax-sharing agreement.
The Company includes interest and penalties in the federal income tax line on the statements of operations.
Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions
The Company accounts for its postretirement benefits other than pensions on an accrual basis. The postretirement benefit obligation for current retirees and fully eligible employees is measured by estimating the actuarial present value of benefits expected to be received at retirement using explicit assumptions.
Actuarial and investment gains and losses arising from differences between assumptions and actual experience upon subsequent remeasurement of the obligation may be recognized as a component of the net periodic benefit cost in the current period or amortized. The net gain or loss will be included as a component of net postretirement benefit cost for a year if, as of the beginning of the year, the unrecognized net gain or loss exceeds 10% of the postretirement benefit obligation. That gain or loss, if not recognized immediately, will be amortized over the average life expectancy of the employer’s fully vested and retiree group.
Accounting Changes
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company changed its deferred tax assets admission calculation related to clarification updates to Statement of Statutory Accounting Principles 101 - Income Taxes, Exhibit A - Implementation Question and Answers, in the Accounting Practices & Procedures Manual. The Company has recorded a $2.1 million increase to surplus as a result of the change in application of the admission criteria through cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles on the statements of changes in capital and surplus.
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company updated mortality assumptions on certain traditional life reserves. This resulted in a change of statutory reserve valuation that is required to be recorded directly to surplus rather than as part of the reserve change recognized in the statements of operations. As a result, the Company has recorded a $0.7 million decrease to surplus as a result of the change in valuation bases through the change in reserve on account of change in valuation basis line on the statements of changes in capital and surplus.

Business Combinations
On December 31, 2018, the Company purchased 100% of the common stock of Gerber Life from Nestlé S.A. ("Nestlé") for an aggregate purchase price of $1,565.5 million, including direct acquisition costs of $9.3 million. Included in the aggregate purchase price is a long-term license to use Gerber Life intellectual property in connection with financial services. Gerber Life is an insurer that operates primarily in the juvenile life insurance and medical stop-loss insurance markets. Gerber Life is New York-domiciled and is licensed in 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and certain Canadian provinces. In 2019, the Company received $8.2 million from Nestlé as an adjustment to the purchase price of Gerber Life.

Simultaneously to, and in contemplation of, the purchase of Gerber Life, the Company paid for a long-term license to use Gerber Life intellectual property in connection with financial services. The stated purchase price in the trademark license agreement was $300.0 million. The fair value of the trademark license agreement in isolation was determined to be $102.0 million; as a result, the book value of the asset was reduced by $198.0 million through surplus in the line titled trademark license agreement adjustment on the statements of changes in capital and surplus. The adjustment to the book value of the trademark license agreement had no impact on the Company's total capital and surplus, as the trademark license agreement asset is non-admitted and the change to the book value was offset by a change in the associated non-admitted asset.

Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is exposed to risk associated with the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and is actively monitoring developments through governmental briefings and the relevant health authorities. The effects of the outbreak on the Company are uncertain and difficult to predict, as the situation continues to evolve. Risks include (but are not limited to) the disruption of business operations due to changing work environments for employees, agents and distributors, and business partners; potential economic hardship of policyholders and issuers of investments held by the Company; and disruptions of product marketing and sales efforts. The Company has business continuity plans in place to mitigate the risks posed to business operations by disruptive incidents such as these.
Subsequent Events
On March 22, 2021, the Company contributed $100.0 million in cash to Columbus Life.
The Company recognizes in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the balance sheet date. For nonrecognized subsequent events that must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading, the Company is required to disclose the nature of the event as well as an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Management has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of these financial statements on April 13, 2021.

Derivative Instruments
The Company entered into an equity hedge program designed to hedge the market value risks associated with the broad equity market. Hedging this risk reduces the economic sensitivity to price declines. At the beginning of these contracts, a premium is either paid or received for transferring the related risk. The options are not designated as a hedge for accounting purposes and are carried at fair value on the balance sheet with changes in fair value recorded in surplus. The related gains and losses from terminations or expirations are recorded in realized capital gains and losses. The change in fair value was $(0.7) million, $(49.8) million, and $0.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. The net gain/(loss) recognized through net income within realized gains and losses was $(58.8) million,$0.0 million, and $81.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively.
The Company has entered into a collateral agreement with the counterparty whereby under certain conditions the counterparty is required to post assets on the Company’s behalf. The posted amount is equal to the difference between the net positive fair value of the option and the agreed upon thresholds that are based on the credit rating of the counterparty. Inversely, if the net fair value of the option is negative, then the Company may be required to post assets using similar thresholds. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, $34.2 million and $41.7 million, respectively, of cash collateral has been posted by the Company.

3. Fair Values of Financial Instruments
Included in various investment-related line items in the financial statements are certain financial instruments carried at fair value. Other financial instruments are periodically measured at fair value such as when impaired or, for certain bonds and preferred stocks, when carried at the lower of cost or market.
The Company uses fair value measurements to record the fair value of certain assets and liabilities and to estimate the fair value of financial instruments not recorded at fair value but required to be disclosed at

Notes to Financial Statements (Statutory-Basis)

fair value. Certain financial instruments, particularly policyholder liabilities other than investment-type contracts, are excluded from this fair value discussion.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value have been classified, for disclosure purposes, based on the following hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out of levels at the beginning of the quarterly reporting period.
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company’s Level 1 assets and liabilities primarily include exchange-traded equity securities and mutual funds, including those which are part of the Company’s separate account assets.
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The Company’s Level 2 assets and liabilities primarily include debt securities within the Company’s separate account for which public quotations are not available, but that are priced by third-party pricing services or internal models using observable inputs. Also included in Level 2 assets and liabilities are NAIC 4 rated preferred stock, NAIC 6 rated bonds, options, and stock warrants. The fair value of these instruments is determined through the use of third-party pricing services or models utilizing market observable inputs.
Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The Company’s Level 3 assets and liabilities primarily include certain debt securities and private equity securities within the Company’s separate account that must be priced using non-binding broker quotes or other valuation techniques that utilize significant unobservable inputs. Also included in Level 3 assets and liabilities are preferred stocks being priced by utilizing recent financing for similar securities.
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on available market information and judgments about the financial instrument, including discount rates, estimates of timing, amount of expected future cash flows and the credit standing of the issuer. Such estimates do not consider the tax impact of the realization of unrealized gains or losses.
For Level 3 investments, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets. In addition, the disclosed fair value may not be realized in the immediate settlement of the financial instrument.
Certain investments utilize net asset value (NAV) as a practical expedient for fair value. These investments are reported separately from the hierarchy. Investments utilizing NAV consist mainly of equity interest in limited partnerships and limited liabilities in the separate account. These investments contain fixed income, common stock, and real estate characteristics. The interests in these partnerships can be sold or transferred with prior consent from the general partner. The average remaining life of the investments is 21.5 years. The Company's unfunded commitment for these investments is $18.8 million. In addition, a collective trust in the separate account utilizing NAV is primarily investing in domestic fixed income securities. Shares in the trust can be redeemed at their net asset value. The NAV for this investment is $12.07. The Company does not intend to sell any investments utilizing NAV.

As described below, certain fair values are determined through the use of third-party pricing services. Management does not adjust prices received from third parties; however, the Company does analyze the third-party pricing services’ valuation methodologies and related inputs and performs additional evaluation to determine the appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy. The Company performs annual due diligence of third-party pricing services, which includes assessing the vendor’s valuation qualifications, control environment, analysis of asset class-specific valuation methodologies and understanding of market observable assumptions and unobservable assumptions, if any, employed in the valuation methodology. Care should be exercised in deriving conclusions about the Company’s business, its value or financial position based on the fair value information of financial instruments presented below. The following discussion describes the valuation methodologies utilized by the Company for assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value.
Debt and Equity Securities
The fair values of debt securities and asset/mortgage-backed securities have been determined through the use of third-party pricing services utilizing market observable inputs. Private placement securities trading in less liquid or illiquid markets with limited or no pricing information are valued using either broker quotes or by discounting the expected cash flows using current market-consistent rates applicable to the yield, credit quality and maturity of each security.
The fair values of actively traded equity securities and exchange traded funds (including exchange traded funds with debt like characteristics) have been determined utilizing publicly quoted prices obtained from third-party pricing services. The fair values of certain equity securities for which no publicly quoted prices are available have been determined through the use of third-party pricing services utilizing market observable inputs. Actively traded mutual funds are valued using the net asset values of the funds. The fair value of equity securities included in Level 3 has been determined by utilizing recent financing for similar securities.
Mortgage Loans
The fair values for mortgage loans, consisting principally of commercial real estate loans, are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for similar loans collateralized by properties with similar investment risk. The fair values for mortgage loans in default are established at the lower of the fair value of the underlying collateral less costs to sell or the carrying amount of the loan.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments
The fair values of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are based on quoted market prices or stated amounts.
Securities Lending Reinvested Collateral Assets
The fair values of securities lending reinvested collateral assets are determined through the use of third-party sources utilizing publicly quoted prices.
29

Notes to Financial Statements (Statutory-Basis)
December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018
Other Invested Assets
Other invested assets primarily include surplus debentures for which fair values have been determined through the use of third-party pricing services utilizing market observable inputs.
Derivative Instruments
The fair values of free-standing derivative instruments, primarily options and stock warrants, are determined through the use of third-party pricing services or models utilizing market observable inputs.
Cash Collateral Receivable
The receivable represents the obligation to return cash collateral the Company has posted relating to derivative instruments. The fair value is based upon the stated amount.
Assets Held in Separate Accounts
Assets held in separate accounts include debt securities, equity securities, mutual funds, private equity, and private debt fund investments. The fair values of debt securities, equity securities and mutual funds have been determined using the same methodologies as similar assets held in the general account. The fair values of private equity and private debt fund investments have been determined utilizing the net asset values of the funds.
Life and Annuity Reserves for Investment-Type Contracts and Deposit Fund Liabilities
The fair value of liabilities for investment-type contracts is based on the present value of estimated liability cash flows, which are discounted using rates that incorporate risk-free rates and margins for the Company’s own credit spread and the riskiness of cash flows. Key assumptions to the cash flow model include the timing of policyholder withdrawals and the level of interest credited to contract balances. Fair values for insurance reserves are not required to be disclosed. However, the estimated fair values of all insurance reserves and investment contracts are taken into consideration in the Company’s overall management of interest rate risk.
Securities Lending Liability
The liability represents the Company’s obligation to return collateral related to securities lending transactions. The liability is short-term in nature and therefore, the fair value of the obligation approximates the carrying amount.

The Company did not have any amounts payable to parent, subsidiaries and affiliates as of December 31, 2020 or 2019. The terms of the settlement generally require that these amounts be settled in cash within 30 days.
The Company has entered into multiple reinsurance agreements with affiliated entities. See Note 5 for further description.

5. Reinsurance
Certain premiums and benefits are assumed from and ceded to other insurance companies under various reinsurance agreements. The ceded reinsurance agreements provide the Company with increased capacity to write larger risks and maintain its exposure to loss within its capital resources.
The Company had a modified coinsurance agreement with Integrity until it was recaptured on November 1, 2018. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company assumed structured settlements, guaranteed rate option annuities, and accumulation products written before July 1, 2002, and Integrity retained the reserves and the related assets of this business. At the date of recapture, there was no impact to net income or surplus.

Certain premiums and benefits are ceded to other unaffiliated insurance companies under various reinsurance agreements. The majority of the ceded business is due to ceding substandard business to reinsurers (facultative basis).

December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had a liability for federal tax loss contingencies of $2.9 million. An estimate of the amount of any increase in the Company's liability related to any federal tax loss contingencies during the twelve month period ending December 31, 2021, cannot be made.

7. Capital and Surplus
The Company is required by statutory regulations to meet minimum risk-based capital standards. Risk-based capital is a method of measuring the minimum amount of capital appropriate for an insurance company to support its overall business operations in consideration of its size and risk profile. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company exceeded the minimum risk-based capital.
Ohio insurance law limits the amount of dividends that can be paid to a parent in a holding company structure without prior approval of the regulators to the greater of 10% of statutory surplus or statutory net income as of the preceding December 31 less any dividends paid in the preceding 12 months, but only to the extent of earned surplus as of the preceding December 31. Based on these limitations, the Company is able to pay dividends of up to $565.8 million by the end of 2021 without seeking prior regulatory approval based on capital and surplus of $5,657.7 million at December 31, 2020.
The Company issued surplus notes ("the Notes") on January 23, 2019, with an aggregate principal amount of $500.0 million, an annual interest rate of 5.15%, and a maturity date of January 15, 2049, in exchange for $497.4 million in cash.

As of December 31, 2020$497,604 $25,750 $50,928 $— 
As of December 31, 2019$497,519 

Interest on the Notes is paid semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year. The Notes were issued pursuant to Rule 144A as defined by the Securities Act of 1933 and are administered by the Bank of New York Mellon.
The Notes are unsecured and subordinated to all present and future indebtedness, policy claims and “prior claims” (those claims referred to in classes 1 through 7 of Section 3903.42 of the Ohio Revised Code) against the Company. Under Ohio insurance laws, the Notes are not part of the legal liabilities of the Company. Each payment of principal of, interest on or redemption price with respect to the Notes, may be made only with the prior approval of the Ohio Director of Insurance (the “Director”), and only out of surplus earnings.
Subject to the approval of the Director, the Company has the option to redeem the Notes (i) in whole within 90 days after the occurrence of a “Tax Event” where the Company receives an opinion of tax counsel that there is a more than insubstantial risk that interest payable on the Notes is not deductible by the Company, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed (the ‘‘Par Value Redemption Price’’), (ii) in whole or in part, on or after January 23, 2024 but prior to July 15, 2048, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (a) the Par Value Redemption Price or (b) the sum of the present value of the remaining scheduled principal and interest payments on the Notes from the redemption date to July 15, 2048, discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis at an adjusted treasury rate plus 35 basis points or (iii) in whole or in part, on or after July 15, 2048, at the Par Value Redemption Price, plus, in each case of (i), (ii) and (iii), accrued and unpaid interest payments on the Notes to be redeemed to the redemption date.
In the event the Company was subject to a liquidation event, the Notes would have preference over the common shareholders. No affiliates of the Company hold any of the Notes.

At December 31, 2020, the Company has future commitments to provide additional capital contributions of $401.8 million to investments in joint ventures, limited partnerships and limited liability companies.
The Company guarantees the payment of all policyholder obligations of each of the following wholly-owned subsidiaries: WSLAC, Columbus Life and Integrity. In addition, the Company guarantees all policyholder obligations of National and The Lafayette Life Insurance Company (Lafayette Life), an affiliated entity which is wholly-owned by the Company’s parent, WSFG. Guarantees on behalf of wholly-owned subsidiaries or on behalf of related parties that are considered to be unlimited (as in the case of the guarantee on behalf of Lafayette Life) are exempt from the initial liability recognition criteria and therefore no liability has been recognized in the financial statements. Due to the unlimited nature of the guarantees, the Company is unable to estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments under the guarantees. In the unlikely event the guarantees would be triggered, the Company may be permitted to take control of the underlying assets to recover all or a portion of the amounts paid under the guarantees.
The Company has guaranteed two mortgage loans in which the borrower is an affiliated limited liability company involved in development of real estate. These guarantees have a maximum exposure to the Company of $26.6 million for Canal Senate Apartments, LLC, and $14.4 million for 506 Phelps Holdings, LLC, in the event the real estate collateral of the affiliated limited liability company is not sufficient to cover the payment of the loan. The fair value of the real estate collateral at December 31, 2020, was approximately $48.5 million and $26.6 million, respectively. These loans mature in August 2022 and February 2024, respectively.
The Company has guaranteed a portion of the payment of mortgage loans made by its wholly-owned subsidiary, WSLAC, to two affiliated limited liability companies, Cranberry NP Hotel Company and Sundance Hotel, LLC, in the amounts of $9.2 million and $14.7 million, respectively. The guarantees have a maximum exposure to the Company of $4.7 million and $6.5 million in the event the real estate collateral of the affiliated limited liability company is not sufficient to cover the payment of the loan. The fair value of the real estate collateral at December 31, 2020, was approximately $6.7 million and $7.9 million. These loans mature in October 2021 and January 2024, respectively.

Interest rate changes may have temporary effects on the sale and profitability of annuity products offered by the Company. Although the rates offered by the Company are adjustable in the long-term, in the short-term they may be subject to contractual and competitive restrictions, which may prevent timely adjustment. The Company’s management constantly monitors interest rates with respect to a spectrum of

The Company’s pension liability was $36.6 million and $23.5 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
The Company utilizes a full yield curve approach in the estimation of liabilities, service cost, and interest cost for pension and postretirement benefits by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used in the determination of the benefit obligation to the relevant projected cash flows. The yield curve utilized in the cash flow analysis is comprised of highly rated (Aaa or Aa) corporate bonds. The discount rate was decreased from 3.44% at December 31, 2019, to 2.80% at December 31, 2020. This resulted in a $114.0 million increase in the pension benefit obligation in 2020. The discount rate was decreased from 4.39% at December 31, 2018, to 3.44% at December 31, 2019. This resulted in a $133.3 million increase in the pension benefit obligation in 2019.
The Company employs a prospective building block approach in determining the long-term expected rate of return for plan assets. Historical returns are determined by asset class. The historical relationships between equities, fixed income securities, and other assets are reviewed. The Company applies long-term asset return estimates to the plan’s target asset allocation to determine the weighted-average long-term return. The Company’s long-term asset allocation was determined through modeling long-term returns and asset return volatilities and is guided by an investment policy statement created for the plan.

The plan employs a total return investment approach whereby a mix of fixed income and equity investments are used to maximize the long-term return of plan assets for a prudent level of risk. Risk tolerance is established through careful consideration of plan liabilities, plan funded status, and corporate financial condition. The total portfolio is structured with multiple sub-portfolios, each with a specific fixed income or equity asset management discipline. Each sub-portfolio is subject to individual limitations and performance benchmarks as well as limitations at the consolidated portfolio level. Quarterly asset allocation meetings are held to evaluate portfolio asset allocations and to establish the optimal mix of assets given current market conditions and risk tolerance. Investment mix is measured and monitored on an ongoing basis through regular investment reviews, annual liability measurements, and periodic asset/liability studies.
The Company’s pension plan assets consist primarily of debt and equity securities, mutual funds and private equity funds, all of which are carried at fair value.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels.
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company’s Level 1 assets primarily include exchange-traded equity securities and mutual funds.
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The Company’s Level 2 assets include certain debt securities for which public price quotations are not available, but that use other market observable inputs from third-party pricing service quotes or internal valuation models using observable inputs. Level 2 assets also include private funds that invest primarily in domestic debt securities where the Company has the right to redeem its interest at net asset values. The underlying debt securities within these funds employ similar valuation methodologies as the Company’s other investments in debt securities.
Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The Company’s Level 3 assets primarily include private equity fund interests.

Debt Securities
The fair values of actively traded debt securities have been determined through the use of third-party pricing services utilizing market observable inputs.
Equity Securities
The fair values of actively traded equity securities have been determined utilizing publicly quoted prices from third-party pricing services.
Mutual Funds
The fair values of mutual funds have been determined utilizing the net asset values of the funds.
Private Equity and Fixed Income Funds
The fair values of private equity and fixed income funds have been determined utilizing the net asset values of the funds.
Other Assets
Other assets primarily include securities lending reinvested collateral and a group annuity contract. The fair value of securities lending reinvested collateral assets are from third-party sources utilizing publicly quoted prices. The group annuity contract is carried at cash surrender value, which approximates fair value.

For measurement purposes of the postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2020, a 5.35 percent annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered health care benefits is assumed for 2021. The rate was assumed to decrease gradually to 4.75 percent for 2029 and remain at that level thereafter.
At December 31, 2020, the assets of the Company’s pension include approximately $148.7 million invested in the Touchstone Family of Funds, which are administered by the Company, and $213.9 million invested in private equity and fixed income funds managed by Fort Washington Investment Advisors, Inc. At December 31, 2019, the assets of the Company’s pension include approximately $105.9 million invested in the Touchstone Family of Funds, which are administered by the Company, $205.3 million invested in private equity and fixed income funds managed by Fort Washington Investment Advisors, Inc.

The Company did not make any contributions to the pension plan in 2020 and 2019. The Company does not anticipate a required contribution to the pension plan during 2021.
In 2020, the Company entered into a group annuity contract with WSLAC to transfer risk and administration costs associated with their pension benefit obligations. This reduced plan assets and the pension benefit obligation by $38.7 million. Future changes in plan assets and obligations will no longer reflect the participants included in the transfer.
The Company made contributions to the postretirement medical plan of $7.2 million in 2020 and expects to contribute $88.8 million between 2021 and 2028, inclusive. The Company received no subsidies in 2020. The Company’s postretirement medical plan did not collect the Medicare Part D Subsidy for claims activity occurring after January 1, 2013.
The Company sponsors a contributory employee retirement savings plan covering substantially all eligible, full-time employees. This plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). The Company’s contributions to the plan are based on a combination of the employee’s contributions to the plan and a percentage of the employee’s earnings for the year. The total of the Company’s contributions to the defined contribution plan were $6.8 million, $6.2 million, and $5.4 million for 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Item 27.    Number of Contract Owners

As of April 7, 2021, 19 qualified and non-qualified contracts issued pursuant to this registration statement were outstanding.

Item 28.    Indemnification

National Integrity's By-Laws provide, in Article VII, Section 7.1 provides:

To the extent permitted by the laws of the State of New York, subject to all applicable requirements thereof:

(a) any person made or threatened to be made a party to any action or proceeding, whether civil or criminal, by reason of the fact that he, his testator, or intestate, is or was a director, officer, employee or incorporator of the Company shall be indemnified by the Company;

(b) any person made or threatened to be made a party to any action or proceeding, whether civil or criminal, by reason of the fact that he, his testator or intestate serves or served any other organization on any capacity at the request of the Company may be indemnified by the Company; and

(c) the related expenses of any such person in any other of said categories may be advanced by the Company.

Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the
18

NAT VAROOM    April 2021

opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 32.    Undertakings

The Registrant hereby undertakes:

(a)to file a post-effective amendment to this registration statement as frequently as is necessary to ensure that the audited financial statements of the Registrant, Depositor and Guarantor in the registration statement are never more than 16 months old for so long as payments under the variable annuity contracts may be accepted;

(b)to include either (1) as part of any application to purchase a contract offered by the prospectus, a space that an applicant can check to request a Statement of Additional Information, or (2) a postcard or similar written communication affixed to or included in the prospectus that the applicant can remove to send for a Statement of Additional Information;

(c)to deliver any Statement of Additional Information and any financial statements required to be made available under this Form, including the WSLIC financial statements, promptly upon written or oral request; and

(d)to update the registration statement if WSLIC terminates its guarantee to National Integrity policyholders.

During any time there are insurance obligations outstanding and covered by its guarantee (Guarantee) issued by WSLIC, filed as an exhibit to this registration statement, National Integrity hereby undertakes to provide notice to contract owners promptly after the happening of significant events related to the Guarantee. These significant events include: (i) termination of the Guarantee that has a material adverse effect on the contract owner's rights under the Guarantee; (ii) a default under the Guarantee that has a material adverse effect on the contract owner's rights under the Guarantee; or (iii) the insolvency of WSLIC.

Pursuant to Section 26(f) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, National Integrity represents that the aggregate charges under the variable annuity contract described in this Registration Statement are reasonable in relation to the services rendered, the expenses expected to be incurred, and the risks assumed by National Integrity.

National Integrity represents that it recognizes the requirements of Section 17(h) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, specifically that it shall not protect or purport to protect any director or officer of the Registrant or Depositor against any liability to them or to their security holders to which he would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his office.
