Supplement dated December 23, 2008 to the Contract Prospectus dated April 28, 2008, as amended

The following information updates and amends certain information contained in your variable annuity Contract
Prospectus dated April 28, 2008. Please read it carefully and keep it with your current Contract Prospectus for future
reference. If you have any questions, please call our Customer Service Center at 1-800-366-0066.

The following contains changes to the contract’s MGIB rider, ING LifePay Plus rider, and ING Joint LifePay Plus rider,
and applies to contracts or riders issued on or after January 12, 2009, subject to state approval.

1.    The “Optional Rider Charges” sub-section of the “Fees and Expenses” section on page 2 of your Contract
Prospectus is deleted and replaced with the following:
 

Optional Rider Charges1

      Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit rider:

          As an Annual Charge
    (Charge Deducted Quarterly)
      0.60% of the MGIB Benefit Base2

    ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit rider3 :

    As an Annual Charge - Currently
    (Charge Deducted Quarterly)
    Maximum Annual Charge
      0.65% of the ING LifePay Plus Base     1.30% of the ING LifePay Plus Base

    (Charge Deducted Quarterly)
    Maximum Annual Charge
      0.90% of the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base     1.50% of the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base

         1   Optional rider charges are expressed as a percentage, rounded to the nearest hundredth of one percent. The basis for an
optional rider charge is sometimes a benefit base or contract value, as applicable. Optional rider charges are deducted
from the contract value in your subaccount allocations (and/or your Fixed Interest Allocations if there is insufficient
contract value in the subaccounts). These tables contain the charges for the current versions of these riders. For
information about previous versions of these riders, including charges, see Appendix K and Appendix L.
2 For more information about how the MGIB Benefit Base is determined, please see “Optional Riders–Minimum
Guaranteed Income Benefit (MGIB) Rider–Determining the MGIB Benefit Base.”
3 The ING LifePay Plus Base is calculated based on premium if this rider is elected at contract issue. The current annual 
charge is 0.55% for riders issued prior to January 12, 2009. The ING LifePay Plus Base is calculated based on contract
value if this rider is added after contract issue. The charge for this rider can increase upon an Annual Ratchet once the
Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, subject to the maximum charge. We promise not to increase the charge for your first
five rider years. For more information about the ING LifePay Plus Base and Annual Ratchet, please see “Charges and
Fees–Optional Rider Charges–ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (ING LifePay Plus) Rider
Charge” and “Optional Riders–ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”)
Rider–Annual Ratchet.”
4 The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is calculated based on premium if this rider is elected at contract issue. The current
annual charge is 0.80% for riders issued prior to January 12, 2009. The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is calculated based
on contract value if this rider is added after contract issue. The charge for this rider can increase upon an Annual Ratchet
once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, subject to the maximum charge. We promise not to increase the charge for
your first five rider years. For more information about the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base and Annual Ratchet, please see
“Charges and Fees–Optional Rider Charges–ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (ING
Joint LifePay Plus) Rider Charge” and “Optional Riders–ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal
Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider–Annual Ratchet.”

2.      The first two paragraphs of the “ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (ING LifePay Plus)
Rider Charge” sub-section of the “Charges and Fees” section on page 13 of your Contract Prospectus are deleted
and replaced with the following:
 
The charge for the ING LifePay Plus rider, a living benefit, is deducted quarterly from your contract value:

         Maximum Annual Charge Current Annual Charge
  1.30% 0.65%

This quarterly charge is a percentage of the ING LifePay Plus Base. The current annual charge is 0.55% for riders
issued prior to January 12, 2009. We deduct the charge in arrears based on the contract date (contract year versus
calendar year). In arrears means the first charge is deducted at the end of the first quarter from the contract date. If
the rider is elected at contract issue, the rider effective date is the same as the contract date. If the rider is added
after contract issue, the rider and charges will begin on the next following quarterly contract anniversary. A
quarterly contract anniversary occurs each quarter of a contract year from the contract date. The charge will be pro-
rated when the rider is terminated. Charges will no longer be deducted once your rider enters Lifetime Automatic
Periodic Benefit Status. Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs if your contract value is reduced to zero
and other conditions are met. We reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING LifePay Plus rider upon an
Annual Ratchet (Quarterly Ratchet for riders issued prior to January 12, 2009) once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase
begins. You will never pay more than new issues of this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. We will not
increase the charge for your first five years after the effective date of the rider. For more information about how this
rider works, including when Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status begins, please see “Optional Riders–ING
LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Rider.”

3.      The first paragraph of the “ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (ING LifePay Plus)
Rider Charge” sub-section of the “Charges and Fees” section on page 14 of your Contract Prospectus is deleted and
replaced with the following:

The charge for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, a living benefit, is deducted quarterly from your contract value:

         Maximum Annual Charge Current Annual Charge
  1.50% 0.90%

This quarterly charge is a percentage of the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base. The current annual charge is 0.80% for
riders issued prior to January 12, 2009. We deduct the charge in arrears based on the contract date (contract year
versus calendar year). In arrears means the first charge is deducted at the end of the first quarter from the contract
date. If the rider is elected at contract issue, the rider effective date is the same as the contract date. If the rider is
added after contract issue, the rider and charges will begin on the next following quarterly contract anniversary. A
quarterly contract anniversary occurs each quarter of a contract year from the contract date. The charge will be pro-
rated when the rider is terminated. Charges will no longer be deducted once your rider enters Lifetime Automatic
Periodic Benefit Status. Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs if your contract value is reduced to zero
and other conditions are met. We reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING LifePay Plus rider upon an
Annual Ratchet (Quarterly Ratchet for riders issued prior to January 12, 2009) once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase
begins. You will never pay more than new issues of this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. We will not
increase the charge for the first five years after the effective date of the rider. You will never pay more than new
issues of this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. For more information about how this rider works,
including when Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status begins, please see “Optional Riders–ING Joint LifePay
Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Rider.”

4.      The fifth sentence in the “Highlights” subsection of the “ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal
Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider section on page 27 of your Contract Prospectus is deleted and replaced with the
following:

  The ING LifePay Plus Base is eligible for Annual Ratchets and 6% Compounding Step-Ups (Quarterly Ratchets
and 7% Compounding Step-Ups for riders issued before January 12, 2009), and subject to any
adjustment for any
Excess Withdrawals.

X.70600-08F                                      2 of 7                                      December 2008

5.     The fifth sentence in the “Highlights” subsection of the “ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal
Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider section on page 35 of your Contract Prospectus is deleted and replaced
with the following:

  The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is eligible for Annual Ratchets and 6% Compounding Step-Ups (Quarterly
Ratchets and 7% Compounding Step-Ups for riders issued before January 12, 2009), and subject to any adjustment
for any
Excess Withdrawals.

6. The “Quarterly Ratchet” and “7% Compounding Step-Up” subsections of the “ING LifePay Plus Minimum
Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider section on page 28 of your Contract Prospectus is
deleted and replaced with the following:

  Annual Ratchet. The ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated on each contract anniversary -- to equal the greater of:
a) the current ING LifePay Plus Base; or b) the current contract value. We call this recalculation an Annual Ratchet.

  For riders issued before January 12, 2009, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated on each quarterly contract
anniversary (once each quarter of a contract year from the contract date). In this circumstance, we call this
recalculation a Quarterly Ratchet.

  Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, we reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING LifePay Plus
rider upon an Annual Ratchet. You will never pay more than new issues of the ING LifePay Plus rider, subject to
the maximum annual charge, and we will not increase this charge for your first five years after the rider effective
date. We will notify you in writing not less than 30 days before a charge increase. You may avoid the charge
increase by canceling the forthcoming Annual Ratchet, and our written notice will outline the procedure you will
need to follow to do so. Please note, however, that from then on the ING LifePay Plus Base would no longer be
eligible for
any Annual Ratchets, so the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage would not be eligible to
increase. More information about the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage is below under “Maximum Annual
Withdrawal.” Our written notice will also remind you of the consequences of canceling the forthcoming Annual
Ratchet.

  For riders issued before January 12, 2009, we reserve the right to increase the charge for this rider upon a Quarterly
Ratchet once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins. You will never pay more than new issues of the rider, subject
to the maximum charge, and we promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. Canceling a
forthcoming Quarterly Ratchet to avoid the charge increase will have the same outcome as noted above.

  6% Compounding Step-Up. The ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated on each of the first ten contract
anniversaries after the rider effective date, SO LONG AS no withdrawals were taken during the preceding contract
year. The recalculated ING Joint LifePay Plus Base will equal the greatest of a) the current ING Joint LifePay
Plus Base; b) the current contract value; and c) the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base on the previous contract
anniversary, increased by 6%, plus any premiums received and minus any withdrawals for payment of third-party
investment advisory fees since the previous contract anniversary. We call this recalculation a 6% Compounding
Step-Up.

  Please note there are no partial 6% Compounding Step-Ups. The 6% Compounding Step-Up is not pro-rated. For
riders added to existing contracts (a post contract issuance election), the first opportunity for a 6% Compounding
Step-Up will not be until the first contract anniversary after a full contract year has elapsed since the rider effective
date.

  For riders issued before January 12, 2009, the step-up is 7%, which we call a 7% Compounding Step-Up. The 7%
Compounding Step-Up is
not pro-rated.

7. The “Quarterly Ratchet” and “7% Compounding Step-Up” subsections of the “ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum
Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider section on page 36 of your Contract Prospectus
is deleted and replaced with the following:

  Annual Ratchet. The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is recalculated on each contract anniversary -- to equal the
greater of: a) the current ING Joint LifePay Plus Base; or b) the current contract value. We call this recalculation an
Annual Ratchet.

X.70600-08F                                      3 of 7                                      December 2008

  For riders issued before January 12, 2009, the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is recalculated on each quarterly
contract anniversary (once each quarter of a contract year from the contract date). In this circumstance, we call this
recalculation a Quarterly Ratchet.

  Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, we reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING Joint LifePay
Plus rider upon an Annual Ratchet. You will never pay more than new issues of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider,
subject to the maximum annual charge, and we will not increase this charge for your first five years after the rider
effective date. We will notify you in writing not less than 30 days before a charge increase. You may avoid the
charge increase by canceling the forthcoming Annual Ratchet. Our written notice will outline the procedure you
will need to follow to do so. Please note, however, that from then on the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base would no
longer be eligible for
any Annual Ratchets, so the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage would not be eligible
to increase. More information about the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage is below under “Maximum Annual
Withdrawal.” Our written notice will also remind you of the consequences of canceling the forthcoming Annual
Ratchet.

  For riders issued before January 12, 2009, we reserve the right to increase the charge for this rider upon a Quarterly
Ratchet once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins. You will never pay more than new issues of the rider, subject
to the maximum charge, and we promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. Canceling a
forthcoming Quarterly Ratchet to avoid the charge increase will have the same outcome, as noted above.

  6% Compounding Step-Up. The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is recalculated on each of the first ten contract
anniversaries after the rider effective date, SO LONG AS no withdrawals were taken during the preceding contract
year. The recalculated ING Joint LifePay Plus Base will equal the greatest of a) the current ING Joint LifePay
Plus Base; b) the current contract value; and c) the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base on the previous contract
anniversary, increased by 6%, plus any premiums received and minus any withdrawals for payment of third-party
investment advisory fees since the previous contract anniversary. We call this recalculation a 6% Compounding
Step-Up.

  Please note there are no partial 6% Compounding Step-Ups. The 6% Compounding Step-Up is not pro-rated. For
riders added to existing contracts (a post contract issuance election), the first opportunity for a 6% Compounding
Step-Up will not be until the first contract anniversary after a full contract year has elapsed since the rider effective
date.

  For riders issued before January 12, 2009, the step-up is 7%, which we call a 7% Compounding Step-Up. The 7%
Compounding Step-Up is
not pro-rated.

8.      The first two paragraphs of the “Maximum Annual Withdrawal” subsection of the “ING LifePay Plus Minimum
Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider section on page 29 of your Contract Prospectus is
deleted and replaced with the following:

  Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is the amount that the ING LifePay Plus rider
guarantees to be available for withdrawal from the contract in any contract year. The Maximum Annual
Withdrawal is first calculated when the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins and equals the Maximum Annual
Withdrawal Percentage, based on the annuitant’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base.

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:

                 Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage          Age  
4% 59½ - 64
5% 65+

           The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is thereafter recalculated whenever the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated 
           (for example, upon an Annual Ratchet or 6% Compounding Step-Up). In addition, the Maximum Annual 
           Withdrawal Percentage can increase with the Annual Ratchet as the annuitant grows older.

9.     The last sentence of the third paragraph of the “Required Minimum Distribution” subsection of the “ING LifePay
Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider section on page 30 and the “ING Joint
LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider section on page 37 of
your Contract Prospectus are deleted and replaced with the following:

  Please note that there is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount for Annual Ratchets
(Quarterly Ratchets for riders issued before January 12, 2009) or upon spousal continuation of the ING
LifePay Plus rider.

10. The fourth paragraph of the “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” subsection of the “ING LifePay Plus
Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider section on page 30 of your Contract
Prospectus is deleted and replaced with the following:

  In the event contract value is reduced to zero before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, Lifetime Automatic
Periodic Benefit Status is deferred until the contract anniversary on or after the annuitant is age 59½. During this
time, the ING LifePay Plus rider’s death benefit remains payable upon the annuitant’s death, and the ING LifePay
Plus rider remains eligible for the 6% Compounding Step-Ups (7% Compounding Step-Ups for riders issued before
January 12, 2009). Once the ING LifePay Plus rider enters the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, periodic
payments will begin in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage multiplied by the
ING LifePay Plus Base.

11. The second sentence of the fourth paragraph of the “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” subsection of the
“ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider section on
page 38 of your Contract Prospectus is deleted and replaced with the following:

  During this time, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider’s death benefit remains payable upon the annuitant’s death, and
the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider remains eligible for the 6% Compounding Step-Ups (7% Compounding Step-Ups
for riders issued before January 12, 2009).

12. The “Investment Option Restrictions” and “Accepted Funds” subsections of the “ING LifePay Plus Minimum
Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider section on page 31 and the “ING Joint LifePay Plus
Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider section on page 39 of your Contract
Prospectus are deleted and replaced with the following:

  Investment Option Restrictions. While this rider is in effect, there are limits on the portfolios to which your
contract value may be allocated. Contract value allocated to portfolios other than Accepted Funds will be
rebalanced so as to maintain at least a specified percentage of such contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds,
which percentage depends on the rider’s purchase date:

        Rider Purchase Date Fixed Allocation Fund Percentage
Currently 30%
Before January 12, 2009 25%
Before October 6, 2008 20%

         See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below for more information. We have these investment 
         option restrictions to lessen the likelihood we would have to make payments under this rider. We require this 
         allocation regardless of your investment instructions to the contract. The rider will not be issued until your contract 
         value is allocated in accordance with these investment option restrictions. The timing of when and how we apply 
         these investment option restrictions is discussed further below.
         
         Accepted Funds. Currently, the Accepted Funds are:

            ING Liquid Assets Portfolio
     ING Solution 2015 Portfolio
     ING Solution 2025 Portfolio
     ING Solution 2035 Portfolio
     ING Solution Income Portfolio

X.70600-08F                                      5 of 7                                      December 2008


If this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009, the following are additional Accepted Funds:

   ING Franklin Templeton Founding Strategy Portfolio; and
   ING WisdomTreeSM Global High-Yielding Equity Index Portfolio

  No rebalancing is necessary when contract value is allocated entirely to Accepted Funds. We may change these
designations at any time upon 30 days notice to you. If a change is made, the change will apply to contract value
allocated to such portfolios after the date of the change.

13.     The first sentence of the first paragraph of the “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing” section of the
“ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider section on page 31 of
your Contract Prospectus is deleted and replaced with the following:

  Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than
the specified percentage noted above of the total contract value allocated among the Fixed Allocation Funds and
Other Funds on any ING LifePay Plus Rebalancing Date, we will automatically rebalance the contract value
allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that a specified percentage of this amount is allocated
to the Fixed Allocation Funds. The specified percentage depends on the rider’s purchase date, as noted in
“Investment Options Restrictions,” above.

14. The first sentence of the first paragraph of the “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing” section of the
“ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider section on page 39

“Investment Options Restrictions,” above.

Item 26. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control with the Depositor or Registrant

Incorporated herein by reference to Item 28 in Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration
Statement on Form N-6 for Security Life Separate Account L1 of Security Life of Denver
Insurance Company (File No. 333-153338), as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on November 14, 2008.

Item 27. Number of Contract Owners

As of November 28, 2008, there were 324,189 qualified contract owners and 204,682 non-
qualified contract owners in ING USA’s Separate Account B.

Item 28. Indemnification

ING USA shall indemnify (including therein the prepayment of expenses) any person who is or
was a director, officer or employee, or who is or was serving at the request of ING USA as a
director, officer or employee of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise for expenses (including attorney’s fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him with respect to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceedings against him by reason of the fact that he is or was such a
director, officer or employee to the extent and in the manner permitted by law.

ING USA may also, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify any other person who is or was
serving ING USA in any capacity. The Board of Directors shall have the power and authority to
determine who may be indemnified under this paragraph and to what extent (not to exceed the
extent provided in the above paragraph) any such person may be indemnified.

ING USA or its parents may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any such person or
persons to be indemnified under the provision in the above paragraphs, against any such liability
to the extent permitted by law.

A corporation may procure indemnification insurance on behalf of an individual who is or was a
director of the corporation. ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc. maintains a Professional
Liability umbrella insurance policy issued by an international insurer. The policy covers ING
America Insurance Holdings, Inc. and any company in which ING America Insurance Holdings,
Inc. has a controlling interest of 50% or more. This would encompass the principal underwriter
as well as the depositor. Additionally, the parent company of ING America Insurance Holdings,
Inc., ING Groep N.V., maintains an excess umbrella cover with limits in excess of $125,000,000.


The policy provides for the following types of coverage: errors and omissions/professional
liability, directors and officers, employment practices, fiduciary and fidelity.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant, as provided
above or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such
indemnification by the Depositor is against public policy, as expressed in the Securities Act of
1933, and therefore may be unenforceable. In the event that a claim of such indemnification
(except insofar as it provides for the payment by the Depositor of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding)
is asserted against the Depositor by such director, officer or controlling person and the SEC is
still of the same opinion, the Depositor or Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question of whether such indemnification by the Depositor is against public policy as expressed
by the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 29. Principal Underwriter

     (a)      At present, Directed Services LLC, the Registrant’s Distributor, serves as principal
underwriter for all contracts issued by ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance
Company. Directed Services LLC is the principal underwriter for Separate Account
A, Separate Account B, Separate Account EQ (formerly Equitable Life Insurance
Company of Iowa Separate Account A), ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New
York Separate Account NY-B, Alger Separate Account A of ING USA and the ING

Investors Trust.
