ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

Separate Account B of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

Deferred Combination Variable and Fixed Annuity Prospectus


ING GOLDENSELECT ESII

May 1, 2009

     This prospectus describes ING GoldenSelect ESII, a group and individual deferred combination variable annuity contract (the “Contract”) offered for sale by ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (“ING USA,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) through Separate Account B (the “Separate Account”). The Contract is available in connection with certain retirement plans that qualify for special federal income tax treatment (“qualified Contracts”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Tax Code”), as well as those that do not qualify for such treatment (“non-qualified Contracts”).

     The Contract provides a means for you to allocate your premium payments in one or more subaccounts, each of which invest in a single investment portfolio. You may also allocate premium payments to our Fixed Account with guaranteed interest periods. Your contract value will vary daily to reflect the investment performance of the investment portfolio(s) you select and any interest credited to your allocations in the Fixed Account. For Contracts sold in some states, not all Fixed Interest Allocations or subaccounts are available. The investment portfolios available under your Contract are listed on the next page.

     You have a right to return a Contract within 10 days after you receive it for a refund of the adjusted contract value (which may be more or less than the premium payments you paid), or if required by your state, the original amount of your premium payment. In no event does the Company retain any investment gain associated with a Contract that is free looked. Longer free look periods apply in some states and in certain situations. Your free look rights depend on the laws of the state in which you purchase the Contract.

     Replacing an existing annuity with the Contract may not be beneficial to you. Your existing annuity may be subject to fees or penalties on surrender, and the Contract may have new charges.

<R>

Notice to Existing Contract Owners

This prospectus will be delivered to prospective purchasers in connection with sales occurring on and after May 1, 2009, as well as to owners having purchased the Contract earlier. The Contract is sold on a continuous basis. And the prospectus is updated at least annually, including for any changes with the Contract, like the Company: introducing or discontinuing the availability of a rider; liberalizing a benefit or exercising any rights reserved under the Contract or a rider; or altering administrative procedures. The Company may also make subaccount changes (investment portfolios of the Trusts or Funds available under the Contract). Any change may or may not apply to an existing Contract. The prospectus reflects the status of the Contract (and rider availability) as of May 1, 2009 and therefore may contain information that is inapplicable to your Contract. In the event of any conflict with the prospectus, the terms of your Contract and any riders will control.

     subject to the maximum charge. We promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years.

Any such fees deducted from fund assets are disclosed in the Fund or Trust prospectuses. The Company may also receive additional compensation from certain funds for administrative, recordkeeping or other services provided by the Company to the funds or the funds’ affiliates.
  These additional payments are made by the funds or the funds’ affiliates to the Company and do not increase, directly or indirectly, the fees and expenses shown above.

Example

</R>

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Contract with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts.

<R>

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Contract for the time periods indicated. The costs reflected are the maximum charges for the Contract with the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit and the most expensive combination of riders possible: Earnings Multiplier Benefit and ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year, and assumes the maximum Trust or Fund fees and expenses. Excluded are premium taxes and any transfer charges.

</R>

Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

<R>
1)  If you surrender or annuitize your contract at the end of the applicable time period: 
  1 year  3 years  5 years  10 years 
  $1,436  $2,520  $3,615  $6,478 
2)  If you do not surrender your contract:     
  1 year  3 years  5 years  10 years 
  $636  $1,920  $3,215  $6,478 

</R>

Compensation is paid for the sale of the Contracts. For information about this compensation, see “Other Contract Provisions – Selling the Contract.”

Fees Deducted by the Funds

     Fund Fee Information. The fund prospectuses show the investment advisory fees, 12b-1 fees and other expenses including service fees (if applicable) charged annually by each fund. Fund fees are one factor that impacts the value of a fund share. Please refer to the fund prospectuses for more information and to learn more about additional factors.

<R>

The Company may receive compensation from each of the funds or the funds’ affiliates based on an annual percentage of the average net assets held in that fund by the Company. The percentage paid may vary from one fund company to another. For certain funds, some of this compensation may be paid out of 12b-1 fees or service fees that are deducted from fund assets. Any such fees deducted from fund assets are disclosed in the fund prospectuses. The Company may also receive additional compensation from certain funds for administrative, recordkeeping or other services provided by the Company to the funds or the funds’ affiliates. These additional payments may also be used by the Company to finance distribution. These additional payments are made by the funds or the funds’ affiliates to the Company and do not increase, directly or indirectly, the fund fees and expenses. Please see “Charges and Fees – Trust and Fund Expenses” for more information.

In the case of fund companies affiliated with the Company, where an affiliated investment adviser employs subadvisers to manage the funds, no direct payments are made to the Company or the affiliated investment adviser by the subadvisers. Subadvisers may provide reimbursement for employees of the Company or its affiliates to attend business meetings or training conferences. Investment management fees are apportioned between the affiliated investment adviser and subadviser. This apportionment varies by subadviser, resulting in varying amounts of revenue retained by the affiliated investment adviser. This apportionment of the investment advisory fee does not increase, directly or indirectly, fund fees and expenses. Please see “Charges and Fees – Trust and Fund Expenses” for more information.

     How Fees are Deducted. Fees are deducted from the value of the fund shares on a daily basis, which in turn affects the value of each subaccount that purchases fund shares.

CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Accumulation Unit

We use accumulation units to calculate the value of a Contract. Each subaccount of Separate Account B has its own accumulation unit value. The accumulation units are valued each business day that the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading. Their values may increase or decrease from day to day according to a Net Investment Factor, which is primarily based on the investment performance of the applicable investment portfolio. Shares in the investment portfolios are valued at their net asset value.

Tables containing (i) the accumulation unit value history of each subaccount of ING USA Separate Account B offered in this prospectus and (ii) the total investment value history of each such subaccount are presented in “Appendix A — Condensed Financial Information” – for the lowest and highest combination of asset–based charges. The numbers show the year-end unit values of each subaccount from the time purchase payments were first received in the subaccounts under the Contract. Complete information is available in the SAI.

The Net Investment Factor

The Net Investment Factor is an index number which reflects certain charges under the Contract and the investment performance of the subaccount. The Net Investment Factor is calculated for each subaccount as follows:

1)      We take the net asset value of the subaccount at the end of each business day.
2)      We add to (1) the amount of any dividend or capital gains distribution declared for the subaccount and reinvested in such subaccount. We subtract from that amount a charge for our taxes, if any.
3)      We divide (2) by the net asset value of the subaccount at the end of the preceding business day.
4)      We then subtract the applicable daily charges from the subaccount; the mortality and expense risk charge; the asset-based administrative charge; and any optional rider charges.

Calculations for the subaccounts are made on a per share basis.

The Net Rate of Return equals the Net Investment Factor minus one.

Financial Statements

The financial statements of the Separate Account and ING USA can be found in the SAI. The financial statements of the Separate Account include information about all contracts offered through the Separate Account. The financial statements of ING USA should only be considered as bearing on the Company’s ability to meet its contractual obligations under the Contracts. ING USA’s financial statements do not bear on the future investment experience of the assets held in the Separate Account.

ING USA SEPARATE ACCOUNT B

ING USA Separate Account B (“Separate Account B”) was established as a separate account of the Company on July 14, 1988. It is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Separate Account B is a separate investment account used for our variable annuity contracts. We own all the assets in Separate Account B but such assets are kept separate from our other accounts.

Separate Account B is divided into subaccounts. Each subaccount invests exclusively in shares of one investment portfolio of a Trust or Fund. Each investment portfolio has its own distinct investment objectives and policies. Income, gains and losses, realized or unrealized, of a portfolio are credited to or charged against the corresponding subaccount of Separate Account B without regard to any other income, gains or losses of the Company. Assets equal to the reserves and other contract liabilities with respect to each are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business of the Company. They may, however, be subject to liabilities arising from subaccounts whose assets we attribute to other variable annuity contracts supported by Separate Account B. If the assets in Separate Account B exceed the required reserves and other liabilities, we may transfer the excess to our general account. When we deduct the fees we charge for the Contract, these would constitute excess assets that we would transfer to the general account. We are obligated to pay all benefits and make all payments provided under the Contracts, and will keep the Separate Account fully funded to cover such liabilities.

Note: We currently offer other variable annuity contracts that invest in Separate Account B, but are not discussed in this prospectus. Separate Account B may also invest in other investment portfolios which are not available under your Contract. Under certain circumstances, we may make certain changes to the subaccounts. For more information, see “The Annuity Contract — Addition, Deletion, or Substitution of Subaccounts and Other Changes.”

Regulatory Matters

</R>

As with many financial services companies, the Company and its affiliates have received informal and formal requests for information from various state and federal governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations in connection with inquiries and investigations of the products and practices of the financial services industry. In each case, the Company and its affiliates have been and are providing full cooperation.

<R>

     Insurance and Retirement Plan Products and Other Regulatory Matters. Federal and state regulators, and self-regulatory agencies are conducting broad inquiries and investigations involving the insurance and retirement industries. These initiatives currently focus on, among other things, compensation, revenue sharing, and other sales incentives; potential conflicts of interest; sales and marketing practices (including sales to seniors); specific product types (including group annuities and indexed annuities); and disclosure. The Company and certain of its U.S. affiliates have received formal and informal requests in connection with such investigations, and have cooperated and are cooperating fully with each request for information. Some of these matters could result in regulatory action involving the Company. These initiatives also may result in new legislation and regulation that could significantly affect the financial services industry, including businesses in which the Company is engaged. In light of these and other developments, U.S. affiliates of ING, including the Company, periodically review whether modifications to their business practices are appropriate.

</R>

     Investment Product Regulatory Issues. Since 2002, there has been increased governmental and regulatory activity relating to mutual funds and variable insurance products. This activity has primarily focused on inappropriate trading of fund shares; directed brokerage; compensation; sales practices, suitability, and supervision; arrangements with service providers; pricing; compliance and controls; adequacy of disclosure; and document retention.

In addition to responding to governmental and regulatory requests on fund trading issues, ING management, on its own initiative, conducted, through special counsel and a national accounting firm, an extensive internal review of mutual fund trading in ING insurance, retirement, and mutual fund products. The goal of this review was to identify any instances of inappropriate trading in those products by third parties or by ING investment professionals and other ING personnel.

<R>

The internal review identified several isolated arrangements allowing third parties to engage in frequent trading of mutual funds within the variable insurance and mutual fund products of ING , and identified other circumstances where frequent trading occurred despite measures taken by ING intended to combat market timing. Each of the arrangements has been terminated and disclosed to regulators, to the independent trustees of ING Funds (U.S.) and in Company reports previously filed with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Action has been or may be taken by regulators with respect to the Company or certain affiliates before investigations relating to fund trading are completed. The potential outcome of such action is difficult to predict but could subject the Company or certain affiliates to adverse consequences, including, but not limited to, settlement payments, penalties, and other financial liability. It is not currently anticipated, however, that the actual outcome of any such action will have a material adverse effect on ING or ING’s U.S.- based operations, including the Company.

</R>

ING has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the ING Funds from all damages resulting from wrongful conduct by ING or its employees or from ING’s internal investigation, any investigations conducted by any governmental or self-regulatory agencies, litigation or other formal proceedings, including any proceedings by the SEC. Management reported to the ING Funds Board that ING management believes that the total amount of any indemnification obligations will not be material to ING or ING’s U.S.-based operations, including the Company.

     Product Regulation. Our products are subject to a complex and extensive array of state and federal tax, securities and insurance laws, and regulations, which are administered and enforced by a number of governmental and self-regulatory authorities. Specifically, U.S. federal income tax law imposes requirements relating to nonqualified annuity product design, administration, and investments that are conditions for beneficial tax treatment of such products under the Internal Revenue Code. (See “Federal Tax Considerations” for further discussion of some of these requirements.) Failure to administer certain nonqualified contract features (for example, contractual

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

annuity start dates in nonqualified annuities) could affect such beneficial tax treatment. In addition, state and federal securities and insurance laws impose requirements relating to insurance and annuity product design, offering and distribution, and administration. Failure to meet any of these complex tax, securities, or insurance requirements could subject the Company to administrative penalties, unanticipated remediation, or other claims and costs.

THE TRUSTS AND FUNDS

You will find more detailed information about the Trusts and Funds currently available under your Contract in “Appendix B — The Investment Portfolios.” A prospectus containing more complete information on each Trust or Fund may be obtained by calling our Customer Service Center at (800) 366-0066. You should read the prospectus carefully before investing.

Certain funds are designated as “Master-Feeder” or “LifeStyle Funds.” Funds offered in a Master-Feeder structure (such as the American Funds) or fund of funds structure (such as the LifeStyle Funds) may have higher fees and expenses than a fund that invests directly in debt and equity securities. Consult with your investment professional to determine if the Portfolios may be suited to your financial needs, investment time horizon and risk comfort level. You should periodically review these factors to determine if you need to change your investment strategy.

If, due to differences in tax treatment or other considerations, the interests of contract owners of various contracts participating in the Trusts or Funds conflict, we, the Boards of Trustees or Directors of the Trusts or Funds, and any other insurance companies participating in the Trusts or Funds will monitor events to identify and resolve any material conflicts that may arise.

Restricted Funds

We may, with 30 days notice to you, designate any investment option as a Restricted Fund and limit the amount you may allocate or transfer to a Restricted Fund. We may also change the limitations on existing contracts with respect to new premiums added to investment portfolios and with respect to new transfers to investment portfolios. We may establish any limitations, at our discretion, as a percentage of premium or contract value, or as a specified dollar amount, and change the limitation at any time. Currently, we have not designated any investment option as a Restricted Fund. If we designate an investment option as a Restricted Fund or set applicable limitations, such change will apply only to transactions made after the designation.

We limit your investment in the Restricted Funds on an aggregate basis for all Restricted Funds and for each individual Restricted Fund. Currently, we limit an investment in Restricted Funds to the following limitations: no more than $999,999,999, and no more than 30 percent of contract value. We may change these limits, in our discretion, for new contracts, premiums, transfers or withdrawals.

We monitor the aggregate and individual limits on investments in Restricted Funds for each transaction (e.g. premium payments, reallocations, withdrawals, dollar cost averaging). If the contract value in the Restricted Funds has increased beyond the applicable limit due to market growth, we will not require the reallocation or withdrawal of contract value from the Restricted Funds. However, if the contract value in the Restricted Funds exceeds the aggregate limit, if you take a withdrawal, it must come from either the Restricted Funds or pro-rata from all investment options in which contract value is allocated, so that the percentage of contract value in the Restricted Funds following the withdrawal is less than or equal to the percentage of contract value in the Restricted Funds prior to the withdrawal.

We will allocate pro-rata the portion of any premium payment that exceeds the limits with a Restricted Fund to your other investment option choices not designated as Restricted Funds, or to a specially designated subaccount if there are none (currently, the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio), unless you instruct us otherwise.

<R>

ESII - 152940

We will not permit a transfer to the Restricted Funds if it would increase the contract value in the Restricted Fund or in all Restricted Funds to more than the applicable limits set forth above. If the total amount of your requested transfer exceeds the applicable limits, we will inform your financial representative or you that we will not process any part of the transfer and that new instructions will be required. We will not limit transfers from Restricted Funds. If the multiple reallocations lower the percentage of total contract value in Restricted Funds, we will permit the reallocation even if the percentage of contract value in a Restricted Fund is greater than its limit.

Please see “Withdrawals” and “Transfers Among Your Investments (Excessive Trading Policy)” in this prospectus for more information on the effect of Restricted Funds.

Covered Funds, Special Funds and Excluded Funds

For purposes of determining death benefits and benefits under the living benefit riders (but not the earnings multiplier benefit rider), we assign the investment options to one of three categories of funds. The categories are:

1)      Covered Funds;
2)      Special Funds; and
3)      Excluded Funds.

Allocations to Covered Funds participate fully in all guaranteed benefits. Allocations to Special Funds could affect the death benefit and/or optional benefit rider guarantee that may otherwise be provided. Allocations to Excluded Funds do not participate in any guaranteed benefits, due to their potential for volatility. No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds.

<R>

Designation of investment options under these categories may vary by benefit. For example, we may designate an investment option a Special Fund for purposes of calculating a benefit under an optional benefit rider, but not a death benefit, or for calculating one death benefit and not another. We may, with 30 days notice to you, designate any investment option as a Special or Excluded Fund with respect to new premiums added to such investment option and also with respect to new transfers to such investment option. For more information about these categories of funds with a death benefit, please see “Death Benefit Choices – Death Benefit During the Accumulation Phase” and Appendix F for examples. These categories of funds also apply to the Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit rider. Please see “Living Benefit Riders – Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit Rider (the MGIB Rider”)” for more information.

</R>

CHARGES AND FEES

We deduct the Contract charges described below to compensate us for our costs and expenses, services provided and risks assumed under the Contracts. We incur certain costs and expenses for distributing and administering the Contracts, including compensation and expenses paid in connection with sales of the Contracts, for paying the benefits payable under the Contracts and for bearing various risks associated with the Contracts. Some of the charges are for optional riders, so they are only deducted if you elect to purchase the rider. The amount of a Contract charge will not always correspond to the actual costs associated with the charge. For example, the surrender charge collected may not fully cover all of the distribution expenses incurred by us with the service or benefits provided. We expect to profit from the charges, including the mortality and expense risk charge and rider and benefit charges, and we may use such profits to finance the distribution of Contracts.

Charge Deduction Subaccount

You may elect to have all charges, except daily charges, against your contract value deducted directly from a single subaccount designated by the Company. Currently we use the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio for this purpose. If you do not elect this option, or if the amount of the charges is greater than the amount in the designated subaccount, we will deduct the charges as discussed below. You may cancel this option at any time by sending notice to our Customer Service Center in a form satisfactory to us.

Charges Deducted from the Contract Value

We deduct the following charges from your contract value:

     Surrender Charge. We will deduct a contingent deferred sales charge (a “surrender charge”) if you surrender your Contract or if you take a withdrawal in excess of the Free Withdrawal Amount during the 8-year period from the date we receive and accept a premium payment. We base the surrender charge on a percentage of each premium payment withdrawn. The surrender charge is based on the amount requested for withdrawal. The surrender charge is deducted from the contract value remaining after you have received the amount requested for withdrawal. This charge is intended to cover sales expenses that we have incurred. We may reduce or waive the surrender charge in certain situations. We will never charge more than the maximum surrender charge. The percentage of premium payments deducted at the time of surrender or excess withdrawal depends on the number of complete years that have elapsed since that premium payment was made. We determine the surrender charge as a percentage of each premium payment as follows:

Complete Years Elapsed  0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8+ 
     Since Premium Payment                   
Surrender Charge (as a  8%  7%  6%  5%  4%  3%  2%  1%  0% 
     percentage of Premium                   
     Payment withdrawn)                   

     Waiver of Surrender Charge for Extended Medical Care or Terminal Illness. We will waive the surrender charge in most states in the following events: (i) you begin receiving qualified extended medical care on or after the first contract anniversary for at least 45 days during a 60-day period and we receive your request for the surrender or withdrawal, together with all required documentation at our Customer Service Center during the term of your care or within 90 days after the last day of your care; or (ii) you are first diagnosed by a qualified medical professional, on or after the first contract anniversary, as having a qualifying terminal illness. We have the right to require an examination by a physician of our choice. If we require such an examination, we will pay for it. You are required to send us satisfactory written proof of illness. See your Contract for more information. The waiver of surrender charge may not be available in all states.

     Free Withdrawal Amount. The Free Withdrawal Amount is the total of (i) your cumulative earnings (which is your contract value less premium payments received and prior withdrawals), and (ii) 10% of premium payments not previously withdrawn received within 8 years prior to the date of the withdrawal.

     Surrender Charge for Excess Withdrawals. We will deduct a surrender charge for excess withdrawals, which may include a withdrawal you make to satisfy required minimum distribution requirements under the Tax Code. We consider a withdrawal to be an excess withdrawal when the amount you withdraw in any contract year exceeds the Free Withdrawal Amount. When you are receiving systematic withdrawals, any combination of regular withdrawals taken and any systematic withdrawals expected to be received in a contract year will be included in determining the amount of the excess withdrawal. In other words, if any single withdrawal or sum of withdrawals exceeds the Free Withdrawal Amount, then you will incur a surrender charge on the excess portion, no matter that the withdrawal is a regular withdrawal or a systematic withdrawal. Premium taxes may also apply. We will deduct such charges from the contract value in proportion to the contract value in each subaccount or Fixed Interest Allocation from which the excess withdrawal was taken. In instances where the excess withdrawal equals the entire contract value in such subaccounts or Fixed Interest Allocations, we will deduct charges proportionately from all other subaccounts and Fixed Interest Allocations in which you are invested. Any withdrawal from a Fixed Interest Allocation more than 30 days before its maturity date will trigger a Market Value Adjustment. See Appendix C for more information.

For the purpose of calculating the surrender charge for an excess withdrawal: (i) we treat premiums as being withdrawn on a first-in, first-out basis; and (ii) amounts withdrawn which are not considered an excess withdrawal are not considered a withdrawal of any premium payments. We have included an example of how this works in Appendix E. Although we treat premium payments as being withdrawn before earnings for purpose of calculating the surrender charge for excess withdrawals, the federal tax law treats earnings as withdrawn first.

<R>

ESII - 152940

     Premium Taxes. We may charge for state and local premium taxes depending on your state of residence. These taxes can range from 0% to 3.5% of the premium payment. We have the right to change this amount to conform with changes in the law or if you change your state of residence.

We deduct the premium tax from your contract value or in the case of a living benefit rider, the benefit base (e.g., MGIB Charge Base or ING LifePay Plus Base), if exercised, on the annuity start date. However, some jurisdictions impose a premium tax at the time initial and additional premiums are paid, regardless of when the annuity payments begin. In those states we may defer collection of the premium taxes from your contract value and deduct it when you surrender the Contract, when you take an excess withdrawal or on the annuity start date.

     Administrative Charge. We deduct an annual administrative charge on each Contract anniversary. If you surrender your Contract prior to a Contract anniversary, we deduct an administrative charge when we determine the cash surrender value payable to you. The charge is $30 per Contract. We waive this charge if your contract value is $100,000 or more at the end of a contract year or the total of your premium payments is $100,000 or more or under other conditions established by ING USA. We deduct the charge proportionately from all subaccounts in which you are invested. If there is no contract value in those subaccounts, we will deduct the charge from your Fixed Interest Allocations starting with the guaranteed interest periods nearest their maturity dates until the charge has been paid.

     Transfer Charge. We currently do not deduct any charges for transfers made during a contract year. We have the right, however, to assess up to $25 for each transfer after the twelfth transfer in a contract year. The charge will not apply to any transfers due to the election of dollar cost averaging or automatic rebalancing.

     Redemption Fees. If applicable, we may deduct the amount of any redemption fees imposed by the underlying portfolios as a result of withdrawals, transfers or other fund transactions you initiate. Redemption fees, if any, are separate and distinct from any transaction charges or other charges deducted from your contract value. For a more complete description of the fund’s fees and expenses, review each fund’s prospectus.

Charges Deducted from the Subaccounts

     Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. The amount of the mortality and expense risk charge depends on the death benefit you have elected. The charge is deducted on each business day and is a percentage of average daily assets based on the assets you have in each subaccount. The mortality and expense risk charge compensates the Company for death benefit and annuitization risks and the risk that expense charges will not cover actual expenses. If there are any profits from the mortality and expense risk charge, we may use such profits to finance the distribution of contracts.

  Annual Ratchet  Max 7 
Standard  Enhanced  Enhanced 
Death Benefit  Death Benefit  Death Benefit 
 
Annual Charge  Annual Charge  Annual Charge 
1.25%  1.55%  1.80% 

Before January 12, 2009, the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit was available in place of the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit for the same charge. For Contracts with the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit purchased before April 28, 2008, the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge is 1.50%.

     Asset-Based Administrative Charge. The amount of the asset-based administrative charge, on an annual basis, is equal to 0.15% of the assets you have in each subaccount. We deduct the charge on each business day at the rate of 0.0004% of average daily assets based on the assets you have in each subaccount.

     Optional Rider Charges. Some features and benefits of the Contract are available by rider for an additional charge. Availability is subject to state approval and sometimes broker/dealer approval. Once elected, a rider cannot be canceled independently of the Contract. Below is information about the charge for a rider. Riders are expressed as a percentage, rounded to the nearest hundredth of one percent. Riders are subject to conditions and limitations.

Benefit During the Accumulation Phase – Earnings Multiplier Benefit Rider.” For more information about how each living benefit rider works, including the defined terms used in connection with the riders, as well as the conditions and limitations, please see “Living Benefit Riders.”

     Earnings Multiplier Benefit Rider Charge. Subject to state availability, you may purchase the earnings multiplier benefit rider for a non-qualified Contract either at issue or on the next contract anniversary following the introduction of the benefit in your state, if later. So long as the rider is in effect, we will deduct a separate quarterly charge for the rider through a pro-rata reduction of the contract value of the subaccounts in which you are invested. If there is insufficient contract value in the subaccounts, we will deduct the charges from your Fixed Interest Allocations starting with the allocation nearest its maturity date. If that is insufficient, we will deduct the charge from the allocation next nearest its maturity date, and so on. We deduct the rider charge on each quarterly contract anniversary in arrears, meaning we deduct the first charge on the first quarterly anniversary following the rider date. If you surrender or annuitize your Contract, we will deduct a pro-rata portion of the charge for the current quarter based on the current contract value immediately prior to the surrender or annuitization. The quarterly charge for the earnings multiplier benefit rider is 0.08% (0.30% annually). For a description of the rider, see “Death Benefit Choices – Death Benefit During the Accumulation Phase – Earnings Multiplier Benefit Rider.”

     Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit (MGIB) Rider Charge. The charge for the MGIB rider, a living benefit, is deducted quarterly, and is a percentage of the MGIB Charge Base:

Maximum Annual Charge  Current Annual Charge 
1.50%  0.75% 

We deduct the quarterly charge in arrears from the subaccounts in which you are invested 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. The charge is deducted even if you decide never to exercise your right to annuitize under this rider. For more information about how this rider works, including how the MGIB Charge Base is determined, please see “Living Benefit Riders – Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit Rider (the “MGIB rider”).”

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C. We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. If changed, the new charge will only apply to riders issued after the change.

     ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (ING LifePay Plus) Rider Charge. The charge for the ING LifePay Plus rider, a living benefit, is deducted quarterly from your contract value:

<R>
Maximum Annual Charge  Current Annual Charge 
1.50%  1.00% 

</R>

This quarterly charge is a percentage of the ING LifePay Plus Base. 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 following the rider effective 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 effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once 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 the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs when 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 the Annual Ratchet once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins. You will never pay more than new issues of this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. We promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. For more information about how

this rider works, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider.”

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C.

Please Note: The above information pertains to the new form of the ING LifePay Plus rider available for sale beginning on May 1, 2009 in states where approved.

     ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (ING Joint LifePay Plus) Rider Charge. The charge for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, a living benefit, is deducted quarterly from your contract value:

<R>
Maximum Annual Charge  Current Annual Charge 
1.70%  1.20% 

</R>

This quarterly charge is a percentage of the ING LifePay Plus Base. 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 following the rider effective 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 effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once each quarter of a contract year from the contract date. The charge will be pro-rated when the rider is terminated.

Trust and Fund Expenses

As shown in the fund prospectuses and described in the “Fees Deducted by the Funds” section of this prospectus, each fund deducts management fees from the amounts allocated to the fund. In addition, each fund deducts other expenses which may include service fees that may be used to compensate service providers, including the company and its affiliates, for administrative and contract owner services provided on behalf of the fund. Furthermore, certain funds may deduct a distribution or 12b-1 fee, which is used to finance any activity that is primarily intended to result in the sale of fund shares. For a more complete description of the funds’ fees and expenses, review each fund’s prospectus.

The company or its U.S. affiliates receive substantial revenue from each of the funds or the funds’ affiliates, although the amount and types of revenue vary with respect to each of the funds offered through the contract. This

<R>

revenue is one of several factors we consider when determining the contract fees and charges and whether to offer a fund through our policies. Fund revenue is important to the company’s profitability, and it is generally more profitable for us to offer affiliated funds than to offer unaffiliated funds.

In terms of total dollar amounts received, the greatest amount of revenue generally comes from assets allocated to funds managed by Directed Services LLC or other company affiliates, which funds may or may not also be subadvised by another company affiliate. Assets allocated to funds managed by a company affiliate but subadvised by unaffiliated third parties generally generate the next greatest amount of revenue. Finally, assets allocated to unaffiliated funds generate the least amount of revenue. The company expects to make a profit from this revenue to the extent it exceeds the company’s expenses, including the payment of sales compensation to our distributors.

     Types of Revenue Received from Affiliated Funds. Affiliated funds are (a) funds managed by Directed Services LLC or other company affiliates, which may or may not also be subadvised by another company affiliate; and (b) funds managed by a company affiliate but that are subadvised by unaffiliated third parties.

Revenues received by the company from affiliated funds may include:

  • A share of the management fee deducted from fund assets;
  • Service fees that are deducted from fund assets;
  • For certain share classes, the company or its affiliates may also receive compensation paid out of 12b-1 fees that are deducted from fund assets; and
  • Other revenues that may be based either on an annual percentage of average net assets held in the fund by the company or a percentage of the fund’s management fees.

These revenues may be received as cash payments or according to a variety of financial accounting techniques that are used to allocate revenue and profits across the organization. In the case of affiliated funds subadvised by unaffiliated third parties, any sharing of the management fee between the Company and the affiliated investment adviser is based on the amount of such fee remaining after the subadvisory fee has been paid to the unaffiliated subadviser. Because subadvisory fees vary by subadviser, varying amounts of revenue are retained by the affiliated investment adviser and ultimately shared with the company.

     Types of Revenue Received from Unaffiliated Funds. Revenue received from each of the unaffiliated funds or their affiliates is based on an annual percentage of the average net assets held in that fund by the company. Some unaffiliated funds or their affiliates pay us more than others and some of the amounts we receive may be significant.

Revenues received by the company or its affiliates from unaffiliated funds include:

  • For certain funds, compensation paid from 12b-1 fees or service fees that are deducted from fund assets; and
  • Additional payments for administrative, recordkeeping or other services that we provide to the funds or their affiliates, such as processing purchase and redemption requests, and mailing fund prospectuses, periodic reports and proxy materials. These additional payments do not increase directly or indirectly the fees and expenses shown in each fund prospectus. These additional payments may be used by us to finance distribution of the contract.
<R>

These revenues are received as cash payments, and if the unaffiliated fund families currently offered through the contract were individually ranked according to the total amount they paid to the company or its affiliates in 2008, that ranking would be as follows:

· BlackRock Variable Series Funds, Inc.

ESII - 152940

</R>

14


If the revenues received from affiliated funds were included in this list, payments from Directed Services LLC and other company affiliates would be at the top of the list.

In addition to the types of revenue received from affiliated and unaffiliated funds described above, affiliated and unaffiliated funds and their investment advisers, subadvisers or affiliates may participate at their own expense in company sales conferences or educational and training meetings. In relation to such participation, a fund’s investment adviser, subadviser or affiliate may make fixed dollar payments to help offset the cost of the meetings or sponsor events associated with the meetings. In exchange for these expense offset or sponsorship arrangements, the investment adviser, subadviser or affiliate may receive certain benefits and access opportunities to company sales representatives and wholesalers rather than monetary benefits. These benefits and opportunities include, but are not limited to, co-branded marketing materials, targeted marketing sales opportunities, training opportunities at meetings, training modules for sales personnel and opportunity to host due diligence meetings for representatives and wholesalers.

Certain funds may be structured as “fund of funds.” These funds may have higher fees and expenses than a fund that invests directly in debt and equity securities because they also incur the fees and expenses of the underlying funds in which they invest. These funds are affiliated funds, and the underlying funds in which they invest may be affiliated funds as well. The fund prospectuses disclose the aggregate annual operating expenses of each portfolio and its corresponding underlying fund or funds. The “fund of funds” available under the contract are identified in the list of investment portfolios toward the front of this prospectus.

Please note that certain management personnel and other employees of the company or its affiliates may receive a portion of their total employment compensation based on the amount of net assets allocated to affiliated funds. For more information, please see “Other Contract Provisions – Selling the Contract.”

THE ANNUITY CONTRACT

The Contract described in this prospectus is a deferred combination variable and fixed annuity contract. The Contract provides a means for you to invest in one or more of the available mutual fund portfolios of the Trusts and Funds through Separate Account B. It also provides a means for you to invest in a Fixed Interest Allocation through the Fixed Account. See Appendix C for more information on the Fixed Account. If you have any questions concerning this Contract, contact your registered representative or call our Customer Service Center at (800) 366-0066.

Contract Date and Contract Year

The date the Contract became effective is the contract date. Each 12-month period following the contract date is a contract year.

Contract Owner

You are the contract owner. You have the rights and options described in the Contract. One or more persons may own the Contract. If there are multiple owners named, the age of the oldest owner will determine the applicable death benefit if such death benefit is available for multiple owners. In the event a selected death benefit is not available, the Standard Death Benefit will apply.

The death benefit becomes payable when you die. If the owner is a non-natural owner, the death benefit is payable upon the death of the annuitant. In the case of a sole contract owner who dies before the annuity start date, we will pay the beneficiary the death benefit then due. The sole contract owner’s estate will be the beneficiary if no beneficiary has been designated or the beneficiary has predeceased the contract owner. In the case of a joint owner of the Contract dying before the annuity start date, we will designate the surviving contract owner as the beneficiary. This will override any previous beneficiary designation. See “Joint Owner,” below.

Joint Owner

For non-qualified Contracts only, joint owners may be named in a written request before the Contract is in effect. Joint owners may independently exercise transfers and other transactions allowed under the Contract. All other

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

15


rights of ownership must be exercised by both owners. Joint owners own equal shares of any benefits accruing or payments made to them. All rights of a joint owner end at death of that owner if the other joint owner survives. The entire interest of the deceased joint owner in the Contract will pass to the surviving joint owner and the death benefit will be payable. Joint owners may only select the Standard Death Benefit option. The Earnings Multiplier Benefit rider is not available when there are joint owners.

Any addition or deletion of a joint owner is treated as a change of owner which may affect the amount of the death benefit. See “Change of Contract Owner or Beneficiary,” below. Adding a joint owner to the Contract post issue with either the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit (Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit before January 12, 2009) or Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit will cause that death benefit to end. If the older joint owner is attained age 85 or under, the Standard Death Benefit will apply. If the older joint owner is attained age 86 or over on the date of the ownership change, the death benefit will be the cash surrender value. The mortality and expense risk charge going forward will reflect the change in death benefit. If you elected the Earnings Multiplier Benefit rider, it will terminate if you add a joint owner after issue. Note that returning a Contract to single owner status will not restore either the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit (Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit before January 12, 2009) or Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit, or the earnings multiplier benefit. Unless otherwise specified, the term “age” when used for joint owners shall mean the age of the oldest owner.

Annuity Start Date

The annuity start date is the date you start receiving annuity payments under your Contract. The Contract, like all deferred variable annuity contracts, has two phases: the accumulation phase and the income phase. The accumulation phase is the period between the contract date and the annuity start date. The income phase begins when you start receiving regular annuity payments from your Contract on the annuity start date.

Annuitant

The annuitant is the person designated by you to be the measuring life in determining annuity payments. On and after May 1, 2009, a joint annuitant may also be designated. You are the annuitant unless you name another annuitant in the application. The annuitant’s age determines when the income phase must begin and the amount of the annuity payments to be paid. In the case of a non-natural owner and joint annuitants, the oldest annuitant’s age is used. The contract owner will receive the annuity benefits of the Contract if the annuitant is living on the annuity start date. You may not change the annuitant after the Contract is in effect except as described below.

If the contract owner is an individual, and the annuitant dies before the annuity start date and you have named a contingent annuitant, the contingent annuitant becomes the annuitant. If the annuitant dies before the annuity start date and there is no contingent annuitant, the contract owner will become the annuitant. In the event of joint owners, the youngest will be the contingent annuitant. The contract owner may designate a new annuitant within 60 days of the death of the annuitant. If the annuitant was the sole contract owner and there is no beneficiary designation, the annuitant’s estate will be the beneficiary.

If the contract owner is not an individual, and the annuitant dies before the annuity start date, we will pay the designated beneficiary the death benefit then due. If a beneficiary has not been designated, or if there is no designated beneficiary living, the contract owner will be the beneficiary.

Regardless of whether a death benefit is payable, if the annuitant dies and any contract owner is not an individual, distribution rules under federal tax law will apply. You should consult your tax adviser for more information if the contract owner is not an individual.

Beneficiary

The beneficiary is named by you in a written request. The beneficiary is the person who receives any death benefit proceeds. The beneficiary may become the successor contract owner if the contract owner, who is a spouse, dies before the income phase start date. We pay death benefits to the primary beneficiary (unless there are joint owners, in which case death proceeds are payable to the surviving owner(s)).

If the beneficiary dies before the annuitant or the contract owner, we pay the death benefit proceeds to the contingent beneficiary, if any. If there is no surviving beneficiary, we pay the death benefit proceeds to the contract owner’s estate.

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

16


One or more persons may be a beneficiary or contingent beneficiary. In the case of more than one beneficiary, we will assume any death benefit proceeds are to be paid in equal shares to the surviving beneficiaries, unless you indicate otherwise in writing.

Please note that only the Standard Death Benefit is available on a Contract with joint annuitants.

Change of Contract Owner or Beneficiary

During the annuitant’s lifetime, you may transfer ownership of a non-qualified Contract. A change in ownership may affect the amount of the death benefit, the guaranteed minimum death benefit and/or the death benefit option applied to the contract, the amount of the earnings multiplier benefit, if applicable, and the continuation of any other optional rider that you have elected. The new owner’s age, as of the date of the change, will be used as the basis for determining the applicable benefits and charges (the annuitant’s age for non-natural owners). The new owner’s death will determine when a death benefit is payable (the annuitant’s death for non-natural owners).

  Maximum New   
Before Ownership Change  Owner Issue Age  After Ownership Change 
Standard Death Benefit  85  Standard Death Benefit 
Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit  75  Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit 
Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit  76  Standard Death Benefit 
Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit  69  Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit 
Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit  70  Standard Death Benefit 

For Contracts issued before May 1, 2009, the maximum new owner issue age was 75 for continuation of both the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit and Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit. Before January 12, 2009, the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit was available in place of the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit. For Contracts issued before April 28, 2008, the maximum new owner issue age was 79 for continuation of both the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit and Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit. Otherwise, the death benefit after the ownership change will be the Standard Death Benefit, so long as the new owner is no older than age 85.

In the event the new owner is age 86 or older, or the new owner is not an individual (other than a trust for the benefit of the owner or annuitant), the death benefit after the ownership change will be the cash surrender value. The mortality and expense risk charge going forward will reflect the change in death benefit. Please note that once a death benefit has been changed due to a change in owner, a subsequent change to a younger owner will not restore either the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit (Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit before January 12, 2009) or Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit.

If you have elected the earnings multiplier benefit rider, and the new owner is under age 76, the rider will continue. The benefit will be adjusted to reflect the attained age of the new owner as the issue age. We will use the Maximum Base and Benefit Base percentages in effect on the original rider date to calculate the benefit. If the new owner is age 76 or over, the rider will terminate. If you have not elected the earnings multiplier benefit rider, the new owner may not add the rider upon the change of ownership. If you have elected another optional rider, the rider will terminate upon a change of ownership.

An ownership change may cause a living benefit rider to terminate. Such depends on the rider and whether spousal continuation is allowed. For more information about an ownership change with the MGIB rider, please see “Living Benefit Riders – Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit (the “MGIB rider”) Rider.” For more information with the ING LifePay Plus rider, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider.” And for more information with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider.”

A change of owner likely has tax consequences. See “Federal Tax Considerations” in this prospectus.

You have the right to change beneficiaries during the annuitant’s lifetime unless you have designated an irrevocable beneficiary. If you have designated an irrevocable beneficiary, you and the irrevocable beneficiary may have to act

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

17


together to exercise some of the rights and options under the Contract. In the event of joint owners all must agree to change a beneficiary.

In the event of a death claim, we will honor the form of payment of the death benefit specified by the beneficiary to the extent permitted under Section 72(s) of the Tax Code. You may also restrict a beneficiary’s right to elect an income phase payment option or receive a lump-sum payment. If so, such rights or options will not be available to the beneficiary.

All requests for changes must be in writing and submitted to our Customer Service Center. Please date your requests. The change will be effective as of the day we receive the request. The change will not affect any payment made or action taken by us before recording the change.

Purchase and Availability of the Contract

We will issue a Contract with the Standard Death Benefit SO LONG AS both the annuitant and the contract owner are age 80 or younger at the time of application. Availability of an Enhanced Death Benefit option plus a living benefit rider is subject to the following limitations.

Maximum  Option  Additional Requirement 
Issue Age     
79  Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit  ING LifePay Plus rider or ING Joint LifePay 
    Plus rider is also purchased. 
75  Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit  All living benefit riders are available. 
69  Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit  No living benefit rider is available. 

The maximum issue age applies to both the annuitant and contract owner at the time of application. The Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit is not available for purchase with any living benefit rider. Also, the maximum issue age for a Contract with the Standard Death Benefit is limited to age 75 to purchase the MGIB rider.

Before May 1, 2009, you could purchase a Contract with the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit SO LONG AS both the annuitant and the contract owner were age 79 or younger at the time of application AND you purchased the ING LifePay Plus rider or ING Joint LifePay Plus rider (or the version of the lifetime guaranteed withdrawal benefit rider available to you). Otherwise, the maximum issue age was 75 for a Contract with either the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit or Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit. Before January 12, 2009, the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit was available in place of the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit. Before April 28, 2008, the maximum issue age was 79 for a Contract with either the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit or Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit.

The initial premium payment must be $5,000 or more ($1,500 for qualified Contracts). You may make additional payments of $100 or more ($50 for qualified Contracts) at any time after the free look period and up to the contract anniversary after your 85th birthday. Under certain circumstances, we may waive the minimum premium payment requirement. We may also change the minimum initial or additional premium requirements for certain group or sponsored arrangements. An initial or additional premium payment that would cause the contract value of all annuities that you maintain with us to exceed $1,500,000 requires our prior approval.

The Contract is designed for people seeking long-term tax-deferred accumulation of assets, generally for retirement or other long-term purposes. The tax-deferred feature is more attractive to people in high federal and state tax brackets. You should not buy this Contract: (i) if you are looking for a short-term investment; (ii) if you cannot risk getting back less money than you put in; or (iii) if your assets are in a plan which provides for tax-deferral and you see no other reason to purchase this Contract. When considering an investment in the Contract, you should consult with your investment professional about your financial goals, investment time horizon and risk tolerance.

Replacing an existing insurance contract with this Contract may not be beneficial to you. Before purchasing the Contract, determine whether your existing contract will be subject to any fees or penalties upon surrender. Also, compare the fees, charges, coverage provisions and limitations, if any, of your existing contract with those of the Contract described in this prospectus.

IRAs and other qualified plans already have the tax-deferral feature found in this Contract. For an additional cost, the Contract provides other features and benefits including death benefits and the ability to receive a lifetime income. You should not purchase a qualified Contract unless you want these other features and benefits, taking into account their cost. See “Charges and Fees” in this prospectus. If you are considering an Enhanced Death Benefit Option and/or the Earnings Multiplier Benefit rider and your contract will be an IRA, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit” in this prospectus. If this contract is issued as an IRA, no contributions may be made for the taxable year in which you attain age 70½.

Crediting of Premium Payments

We will process your initial premium within 2 business days after receipt and allocate the payment according to the instructions you specify at the accumulation unit value next determined, if the application and all information necessary for processing the Contract are complete. We will process subsequent premium payments within 1 business day if we receive all information necessary. In certain states we also accept initial and additional premium payments by wire order. Wire transmittals must be accompanied by sufficient electronically transmitted data. We may retain your initial premium payment for up to 5 business days while attempting to complete an incomplete application. If the application cannot be completed within this period, we will inform you of the reasons for the delay. We will also return the premium payment immediately unless you direct us to hold the premium payment until the application is completed. If you choose to have us hold the premium payment, it will be held in a non-interest bearing account.

If a subaccount is not available or requested in error, we will make inquiry about a replacement subaccount. If we are unable to reach you or your representative within 5 days, we will consider the application incomplete. Once the completed application is received, we will allocate the payment to the subaccounts of Separate Account B specified by you within 2 business days.

If your premium payment was transmitted by wire order from your broker/dealer, we will follow one of the following two procedures after we receive and accept the wire order and investment instructions. The procedure we follow depends on state availability and the procedures of your broker/dealer.

1)      If either your state or broker/dealer do not permit us to issue a Contract without an application, we reserve the right to rescind the Contract if we do not receive and accept a properly completed application or enrollment form within 5 days of the premium payment. If we do not receive the application or form within 5 days of the premium payment, we will refund the contract value plus any charges we deducted, and the Contract will be voided. Some states require that we return the premium paid.
2)      If your state and broker/dealer allow us to issue a Contract without an application, we will issue and mail the Contract to you or your representative, together with a Contract Acknowledgement and Delivery Statement for your execution. Until our Customer Service Center receives the executed Contract Acknowledgement and Delivery Statement, neither you nor the broker/dealer may execute any financial transactions on your Contract unless they are requested in writing by you. We may require additional information before complying with your request (e.g., signature guarantee).

We will ask about any missing information related to subsequent payments. We will allocate the subsequent payment(s) pro-rata according to the current variable subaccount allocation unless you specify otherwise. Any fixed allocation(s) will not be considered in the pro-rata calculations. If a subaccount is no longer available (including due to a fund purchase restriction) or requested in error, we will allocate the subsequent payment(s) proportionally among the other subaccount(s) in your current allocation. For any subsequent premium payments, we will credit the payment designated for a subaccount of Separate Account B at the accumulation unit value next determined after receipt of your premium payment and instructions.

Once we allocate your premium payment to the subaccounts selected by you, we convert the premium payment into accumulation units. We divide the amount of the premium payment allocated to a particular subaccount by the value of an accumulation unit for the subaccount to determine the number of accumulation units of the subaccount

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

19


<R>

to be held in Separate Account B with respect to your Contract. The net investment results of each subaccount vary with its investment performance.

</R>

In some states, we may require that an initial premium designated for a subaccount of Separate Account B or the Fixed Account be allocated to a subaccount specially designated by the Company (currently, the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio) during the free look period. After the free look period, we will convert your contract value (your initial premium plus any earnings less any expenses) into accumulation units of the subaccounts you previously selected. The accumulation units will be allocated based on the accumulation unit value next computed for each subaccount. Initial premiums designated for Fixed Interest Allocations will be allocated to a Fixed Interest Allocation with the guaranteed interest period you have chosen; however, in the future we may allocate the premiums to the specially designated subaccount during the free look period.

We may also refuse to accept certain forms of premium payments or loan repayments, if applicable, (traveler’s checks, for example) or restrict the amount of certain forms of premium payments or loan repayments. In addition, we may require information as to why a particular form of payment was used (third party checks, for example) and the source of the funds of such payment in order to determine whether or not we will accept it. Use of an unacceptable form of payment may result in us returning your premium payment and not issuing the contract.

Administrative Procedures

We may accept a request for Contract service in writing, by telephone, or other approved electronic means, subject to our administrative procedures, which vary depending on the type of service requested and may include proper completion of certain forms, providing appropriate identifying information, and/or other administrative requirements. We will process your request at the contract value next determined only after you have met all administrative requirements. Please be advised that the risk of a fraudulent transaction is increased with telephonic or electronic instructions (for example, a facsimile withdrawal request form), even if appropriate identifying information is provided.

Contract Value

We determine your contract value on a daily basis beginning on the contract date. Your contract value is the sum of (i) the contract value in the Fixed Interest Allocations, and (ii) the contract value in each subaccount in which you are invested.

     Contract Value in Fixed Interest Allocations. The contract value in your Fixed Interest Allocation is the sum of premium payments allocated to the Fixed Interest Allocation under the Contract, plus contract value transferred to the Fixed Interest Allocation, plus credited interest, minus any transfers and withdrawals from the Fixed Interest Allocation (including any Market Value Adjustment applied to such transfer or withdrawal), contract fees (including, in some cases, fees for optional benefit riders) and premium taxes.

     Contract Value in the Subaccounts. On the contract date, the contract value in the subaccount in which you are invested is equal to the initial premium paid and designated to be allocated to the subaccount. On the contract date, we allocate your contract value to each subaccount and/or a Fixed Interest Allocation specified by you, unless the Contract is issued in a state that requires the return of premium payments during the free look period. In such a case, the portion of your initial premium not allocated to a Fixed Interest Allocation may be allocated to a subaccount specially designated by the Company during the free look period for this purpose (currently, the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio).

On each business day after the contract date, we calculate the amount of contract value in each subaccount as follows:

1)      We take the contract value in the subaccount at the end of the preceding business day.
2)      We multiply (1) by the subaccount’s Net Rate of Return since the preceding business day.
3)      We add (1) and (2).
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

20


4)      We add to (3) any additional premium payments, and then add or subtract any transfers to or from that subaccount.
5)      We subtract from (4) any withdrawals and any related charges, and then subtract any contract fees and premium taxes.

Cash Surrender Value

The cash surrender value is the amount you receive when you surrender the Contract. The cash surrender value will fluctuate daily based on the investment results of the subaccounts in which you are invested and interest credited to Fixed Interest Allocations and any Market Value Adjustment. See Appendix C for a description of the calculation of cash surrender value under any Fixed Interest Allocation. We do not guarantee any minimum cash surrender value. On any date during the accumulation phase, we calculate the cash surrender value as follows: we start with your contract value, adjust for any Market Value Adjustment, and then we deduct any surrender charge, any charge for premium taxes, any redemption fees, the annual contract administrative fee (unless waived), any optional benefit rider charge, and any other charges incurred but not yet deducted.

     Surrendering to Receive the Cash Surrender Value. You may surrender the Contract at any time while the annuitant is living and before the annuity start date. A surrender is effective on the date we receive your written request and the Contract at our Customer Service Center. After we receive all paperwork required for us to process your surrender, we will determine and pay the cash surrender value at the price next determined. Once paid, all benefits under the Contract will terminate. For administrative purposes, we will transfer your money to a specially designated subaccount (currently the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio) prior to processing the surrender. This transfer will have no effect on your cash surrender value. You may receive the cash surrender value in a single sum payment or apply it under one or more annuity options. We will usually pay the cash surrender value within 7 days.

Consult your tax adviser regarding the tax consequences associated with surrendering your Contract. A surrender made before you reach age 59½ may result in a 10% tax penalty. See “Federal Tax Considerations” for more details.

Addition, Deletion or Substitution of Subaccounts and Other Changes

We may make additional subaccounts available to you under the Contract. These subaccounts will invest in investment portfolios we find suitable for your Contract. We may also withdraw or substitute investment portfolios, subject to the conditions in your Contract, compliance with regulatory requirements, and subject to SEC approval.

We may amend the Contract to conform to applicable laws or governmental regulations. If we feel that investment in any of the investment portfolios has become inappropriate to the purposes of the Contract, we may, with approval of the SEC (and any other regulatory agency, if required) combine two or more accounts or substitute another portfolio for existing and future investments. If you elected the dollar cost averaging, systematic withdrawals or automatic rebalancing programs, or if you have other outstanding instructions and we substitute or otherwise eliminate a portfolio subject to those instructions, we will execute your instructions using the substituted or proposed replacement portfolio, unless you request otherwise. The substitute or proposed replacement portfolio may have higher fees and charges than any portfolio it replaces. Subject to SEC approval, we reserve the right to: (i) deregister Separate Account B under the 1940 Act; (ii) operate Separate Account B as a management company under the 1940 Act if it is operating as a unit investment trust; (iii) operate Separate Account B as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act if it is operating as a managed separate account; (iv) restrict or eliminate any voting rights as to Separate Account B; and (v) combine Separate Account B with other accounts.

We will provide you with written notice before we make any of these changes.

Fixed Interest Allocation (The Fixed Account or Fixed Interest Division)

The Fixed Account is a segregated asset account which contains the assets that support a contract owner’s Fixed Interest Allocations. See Appendix C and the Fixed Account II prospectus for more information. In the event the Fixed Account is not available in your state, then the Fixed Interest Allocation is the Fixed Interest Division. Accordingly, see Appendix D, instead for more information. To obtain a copy of the Fixed Account II prospectus, write to our Customer Service Center at P.O. Box 9271, Des Moines, Iowa 50306-9271 or call (800) 366-0066, or

State Variations

Contracts issued in your state may provide different features and benefits from, and impose different costs than, those described in this prospectus. This prospectus provides a general description of the Contract, so please see your Contract, any endorsements and riders for the details.

Other Contracts

We and our affiliates offer various other products with different features and terms than the Contracts, and that may offer some or all of the same investment portfolios. These products have different benefits, fees and charges, and may or may not better match your needs. You should be aware that there are alternative options available, and, if you are interested in learning more about these other products, contact our Customer Service Center or your registered representative. Also, broker/dealers selling the Contract may limit its availability or the availability of an optional feature (for example, by imposing restrictions on eligibility), or decline to make an optional feature available. Please talk to your registered representative for further details.

LIVING BENEFIT RIDERS

Some features and benefits of the Contract, if available, are available by rider for an additional charge. Once elected, the riders generally may not be cancelled. You may not remove the rider and charges will be assessed regardless of the performance of your Contract. Please see “Charges and Fees - Optional Rider Charges” for information on rider charges.

The optional riders may not be available for all investors. You should analyze each rider thoroughly and understand it completely before you select one. The optional riders do not guarantee any return of principal or premium payments and do not guarantee performance of any specific investment portfolio under the contract. You should consult a qualified financial adviser in evaluating the riders. Our Customer Service Center may be able to answer your questions. The telephone number is (800) 366-0066.

The Contract has three living benefit riders offering protection against the investment risks with your Contract:

  • The Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit rider, which you may wish to purchase if you are concerned about having a minimum amount of income in annuitizing your Contract;
  • The ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit rider, which you may wish to purchase if you are concerned that you may outlive your income; and
  • The ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit rider, which you may wish to purchase if you are married and concerned that you and your spouse may outlive your income.
<R>

These living benefit riders are described further below. You may only add one living benefit rider to your Contract. We do, however, reserve the right to allow the purchase of more than one living benefit rider in the future. You should not purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider with multiple owners, unless the owners are spouses. More information about earlier versions of the guaranteed withdrawal benefit riders (including lifetime versions) is in the appendices.

</R>

Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit Rider (the “MGIB rider”). The MGIB rider is an optional benefit which guarantees a minimum amount of annuity income will be available to you if you annuitize on the MGIB Date (as defined below), regardless of fluctuating market conditions. The minimum guaranteed amount of annuity income will depend on the amount of premiums you pay during the first five contract years after you purchase the rider, the amount of contract value you allocate or transfer to Special Funds (as defined below) or Excluded Funds (as defined below), the MGIB Rate (as defined below), the adjustment for Special Fund or Excluded Fund transfers, and any

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

22


withdrawals you take while the MGIB rider is in effect. Thus, investing in Special Funds or Excluded Funds may limit the benefit under the MGIB rider.

     Purchase. To purchase the MGIB rider, you must be age 75 or younger on the rider date and the ten-year waiting period must end at or prior to the latest annuity start date. Before April 28, 2008, the maximum age was 79. Some broker dealers may limit availability of the rider to younger ages. The MGIB rider must be purchased on the contract date. The Company in its discretion may allow the purchase of this rider after the contract date. The MGIB rider is not available for purchase with the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit. There is a ten-year waiting period before you can annuitize under the MGIB rider.

     Rider Date. The rider date is the date the optional benefit rider becomes effective. The rider date is also the contract date if you purchase the rider when the Contract is issued.

     No Cancellation. Once you purchase a rider, you may not cancel it unless you cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period, surrender, annuitize or otherwise terminate the Contract. These events automatically cancel any rider. Once the Contract continues beyond the free look period, you may not cancel the rider. The Company may, at its discretion, cancel and/or replace a rider at your request in order to renew or reset a rider.

     Termination. The MGIB rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefit offered by the MGIB rider is intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The MGIB rider automatically terminates if you:

  • annuitize, surrender or otherwise terminate your Contract during the accumulation phase;
  • you die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple contract owners, or at death of annuitant if contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract;
  • the contract value is insufficient to pay the charge for the MGIB rider; or
  • there is a change in contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation upon your death).

     Rider Charge. The current charge we deduct under the MGIB Rider is 0.75% annually of the MGIB Charge Base. The MGIB Charge Base is the greater of (1) and (2) below, where:

1)      Is the lesser of the Maximum MGIB Rollup Base and the sum of (a), (b), and (c) where:
  (a)      is the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds;
  (b)      is the MGIB Rollup Base for Special Funds (as defined below); and
  (c)      is the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds; and
2)      Is the sum of (a) and (b) where:
  (a)      is the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds; and
  (b)      is the MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds.

For definitions of the Maximum MGIB Rollup Base, the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds, the MGIB Rollup Base for Special Funds, the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds, the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds, and the MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds, see the “Calculations of the MGIB Rollup Bases” and “Calculation of the MGIB Ratchet Bases” below.

     Fund Categories. The MGIB Benefit Base (as defined below) is tracked separately for Covered Funds, Special Funds and Excluded Funds. The following investment options are currently designated as Special Funds for purposes of calculating the MGIB Benefit Base:

  • ING Liquid Assets Portfolio; and
  • Fixed Interest Allocation.

Please note that the ProFunds VP Rising Rates Opportunity and ING Limited Maturity Bond portfolios are also Special Funds, but closed to new allocations, effective April 30, 2007 and March 12, 2004, respectively.

No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds. Covered Funds are any investment options not designated as Special Funds or Excluded Funds. These fund categories apply to all calculations under the MGIB rider. Please see “The Trust and Funds – Covered Funds, Special Funds and Excluded Funds.”

For Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased before August 21, 2006 (subject to availability), the ING VP Intermediate Bond Portfolio is designated as a Special Fund.

     Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. In order to mitigate the insurance risk inherent in our guarantee to provide you a guaranteed minimum amount of annuity income if you annuitize on the MGIB date (subject to the terms and restrictions of the MGIB rider), we require that your contract value be allocated in accordance with certain limitations. In general, to the extent that you choose not to invest in the Accepted Funds, we require that a proportion of the amount not so invested be invested in the Fixed Allocation Funds. We will require this allocation regardless of your investment instructions to the contract, as described below.

For Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased on and after August 21, 2006 (subject to availability), there is an allocation requirement. If the contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds (as defined below) is less than a percentage of the total contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds (as defined below) on any MGIB Rebalancing Date (as defined below), we will automatically rebalance the contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that the appropriate percentage of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. This is called Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing and the percentage is stated in your Contract. Currently, the minimum Fixed Allocation Fund percentage is zero. Accepted Funds are excluded from this rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis among the Other Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date.

The MGIB Rebalancing Dates occur on each Contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you; and
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

If this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009, the following are additional Accepted Funds: 
 
 ING Franklin Templeton Founding Strategy Portfolio 
 ING Global Equity Option Portfolio 
 ING WisdomTreeSM Global High-Yielding Equity Index Portfolio 

</R> <R> </R>

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 investment portfolios after the date of the change.

<R>

Currently, the Fixed Allocation Funds are:

  ING American Funds Bond Portfolio ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio
ING BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio
ING U.S. Bond Index Portfolio

You may allocate contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.

</R>

If the MGIB rider is not continued under the spousal continuation right, when available, the Fixed Allocation Fund will be reclassified as a Special Fund as of the Contract continuation date if it would otherwise be designated as a Special Fund for purposes of the Contract’s death benefits. For purposes of calculating any applicable death benefit guaranteed under the Contract any allocation of contract value to the Fixed Allocation Funds will be considered a Covered Fund while the rider is in effect.

All investment portfolios available under the Contract that are not Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment portfolio restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I –Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.”

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in it. By electing to purchase the MGIB rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including

<R>

reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the MGIB rider if you do not wish to have your contract value reallocated in this manner.

     MGIB Benefit Base. The MGIB Benefit Base (as defined below) is only a calculation used to determine the MGIB annuity income. The MGIB Benefit Base does not represent a contract value, nor does it guarantee performance of the subaccounts in which you are invested. It is also not used in determining the amount of your cash surrender value and death benefits. Any reset of contract value under provisions of the Contract or other riders will not increase the MGIB Benefit Base or Maximum MGIB Rollup Base (as defined below). On the MGIB Date, your MGIB Benefit Base is the greater of (1) and (2), where:

1)      Is the lesser of the Maximum MGIB Rollup Base (as defined below) and the sum of (a), (b), and (c)
  where:     
  (a)      is the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds; and
  (b)      is the MGIB Rollup Base for Special Funds; and
  (c)      is the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds; and
2)      Is the sum of (a) and (b) where:
  (a)      is the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds (as defined below); and
  (b)      is the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds.

The MGIB Benefit Base calculation differs from the MGIB Charge Base calculation because it uses the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds rather than the MGIB Ratchet Base and MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Excluded Funds. This means that the amount on which you pay charges for the MGIB rider may be higher than the amount used to calculate your benefit under the MGIB rider.

     Calculation of MGIB Rollup Bases. The Maximum MGIB Rollup Base is 250% of eligible premiums adjusted pro-rata for withdrawals, subject to availability (300% otherwise and for Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased before August 21, 2006). This means that the Maximum MGIB Rollup Base is reduced for withdrawals by the same proportion that the withdrawal reduces the contract value. The Maximum MGIB Rollup Base is not allocated by Fund category.

The MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Covered Funds equals the eligible premiums allocated to Covered Funds, adjusted for subsequent withdrawals and transfers taken or made while the MGIB rider is in effect, accumulated at the MGIB Rate to the earlier of the oldest owner reaching age 80 and the MGIB Rollup Base reaching the Maximum MGIB Rollup Base, and at 0% thereafter.

The MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Special Funds equals the eligible premiums allocated to Special Funds, adjusted for subsequent withdrawals and transfers taken or made while the MGIB rider is in effect. The MGIB Rate does not apply to the MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Special Funds, so the MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Special Funds does not accumulate.

The MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Excluded Funds equals the eligible premiums allocated to Excluded Funds, adjusted for subsequent withdrawals and transfers taken or made while the MGIB rider is in effect, accumulated at the MGIB rate to the earlier of the oldest owner reaching age 80 and the MGIB Rollup Base reaching the Maximum MGIB Rollup Base, and at 0% thereafter. The MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Excluded Funds is used only for transfer adjustments and rider charges. It is not included in the MGIB Rollup Base used to determine benefits.

Eligible premiums are those premiums added more than 5 years before the earliest MGIB Date. This means that, generally, premiums must be paid within five years of purchasing the MGIB rider to be considered eligible premiums. Premiums paid after that are excluded from the MGIB Rollup Bases.

The MGIB Rate is currently 6% (7% if this rider was purchased before May 1, 2009). The MGIB Rate is an annual effective rate. We may, at our discretion, discontinue offering this rate. The MGIB Rate will not change for those contracts that have already purchased the MGIB rider.

<R>

Withdrawals reduce each MGIB Rollup Base on a pro-rata basis. The percentage reduction in the MGIB Rollup Base for each Fund category (i.e., Covered Funds, Special Funds or Excluded Funds) equals the percentage reduction in contract value in that fund category resulting from the withdrawal (including surrender charge and market value adjustment). This means that the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds, the MGIB Rollup Base for Special Funds or the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds is reduced for withdrawals by the same proportion that the withdrawal reduces the contract value allocated to Covered Funds, Special Funds or Excluded Funds. For example, if the contract value in Covered Funds is reduced by 25% as the result of a withdrawal (including surrender charge and market value adjustment), the MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Covered Funds is also reduced by 25% (rather than by the amount of the withdrawal).

</R>

When you make transfers between Covered Funds, Special Funds and Excluded Funds, net transfers from a fund category will reduce the applicable MGIB Rollup Base for that fund category on a pro-rata basis. This means a reduction by the same percentage as the transfer bears to the contract value in the fund category. For example, if the contract value in Covered Funds is $1000 and the transfer from Covered Funds to Excluded Funds is $250, then the contract value in Covered Funds is reduced by 25%. In a case where the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds is $1200, the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds is also reduced by 25%, or $300, rather than by the amount of the transfer, or $250. In addition, the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds is increased by the reduction in the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds, or $300.

In a case where the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds is greater than the contract value in Covered Funds, a transfer from Covered Funds will result in the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds being reduced by a dollar amount that is higher than the dollar amount of the transfer. A higher reduction to the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds will have a larger negative impact on the MGIB Benefit Base, potentially reducing the minimum guaranteed amount of annuity income upon annuitization under the MGIB rider. This means the benefit you receive under the MGIB rider will not be as great because of the transfer.

Net transfers from Excluded Funds will also reduce the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. But the resulting increase in the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds or Special Funds, as applicable, will equal the lesser of the contract value transferred and the reduction in the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds. What this means, if in the previous example the transfer was from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds, is there would be no change in the value of your MGIB Benefit Base because of the transfer – the amount of the transfer between the fund categories is the same, $250, because the MGIB Benefit Base calculation is based on the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds, versus the calculation basis for Excluded Funds with the MGIB Charge Base. The MGIB Charge Base calculation is instead based on the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds. As a result, this same transfer, having no change in the value of your MGIB Benefit Base, would result in the MGIB Charge Base being reduced. The net effect of this transfer: You pay less for the same minimum guaranteed amount of annuity income upon annuitization of the MGIB rider.

Calculation of MGIB Ratchet Bases. The MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds equals:

1)      on the rider date, eligible premiums or the contract value (if the rider is added after the contract date) allocated to Covered Funds and Special Funds;
2)      on each contract anniversary prior to attainment of age 90, the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds is set equal to the greater of:
  (a)      the current contract value allocated to Covered Funds and Special Funds (after any deductions occurring on that date); and
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

27


<R>
  (b)      the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds from the most recent prior contract anniversary, adjusted for any new eligible premiums, withdrawals attributable to Covered Funds and Special Funds, and transfers.
   For Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased before January 12, 2009, the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds is recalculated on each “quarterly anniversary date” prior to attainment of age 90. A “quarterly anniversary date” is the date three months from the contract date that falls on the same date in the month as the contract date. For example, if the contract date is February 12, the quarterly anniversary date is May 12. If there is no corresponding date in the month, the quarterly anniversary date will be the last date of the month.
   Whenever the date falls on a weekend or holiday, we will use the value as of the subsequent business day.
3)      at other times, the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds is the corresponding MGIB Ratchet Base from the prior contract anniversary (the prior quarterly anniversary date for Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased before January 12, 2009), adjusted for subsequent eligible premiums, withdrawals attributable to Covered Funds and Special Funds, and transfers.
</R>

The MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds has a corresponding definition with respect to amounts allocated to Excluded Funds. The MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds is used only for transfer adjustments and MGIB rider charges. It is not included in the MGIB Ratchet Base used to determine benefits.

Eligible premiums are those premiums added more than five years before the earliest MGIB Date. This means that, generally, premiums must be paid within five years of purchasing the MGIB rider to be considered eligible premiums. Premiums paid after that are not added to the MGIB Ratchet Bases, but would be added to your contract value.

<R>

Withdrawals reduce each MGIB Ratchet Base on a pro-rata basis. The percentage reduction in the MGIB Ratchet Base for each fund category (i.e., Covered Funds and Special Funds or Excluded Funds) equals the percentage reduction in contract value in that fund category resulting from the withdrawal (including surrender charges and market value adjustment). This means that the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds or the MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds is reduced for withdrawals by the same proportion that the withdrawal (including surrender charges and market value adjustment) reduces the contract value allocated to Covered Funds and Special Funds or Excluded Funds. For example, if the contract value in Covered Funds and Special Funds is reduced by 25% as the result of a withdrawal (including surrender charges and market value adjustment), the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds is also reduced by 25% (rather than by the amount of the withdrawal).

</R>

When you make transfers between Covered Funds or Special Funds and Excluded Funds, net transfers will reduce the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds on a pro-rata basis. This means a reduction by the same percentage as the transfer bears to the contract value in Covered Funds and Special Funds. For example, if the contract value in Covered Funds and Special Funds is $1000 and a transfer from Covered Funds or Special Funds to Excluded Funds is $250, then the contract value in Covered Funds and Special Funds is reduced by 25%. In a case where the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds is $1200, the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds is also reduced by 25%, or $300, rather than by the amount of the transfer, or $250. In addition, the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds is increased by the reduction in the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds, or $300.

In a case where the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds is greater than the contract value in Covered Funds and Special Funds, a transfer from Covered Funds and Special Funds will result in the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds being reduced by a dollar amount that is higher than the dollar amount of the transfer. A higher reduction to the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds will have a larger negative impact on the MGIB Benefit Base, potentially reducing the minimum guaranteed amount of

<R>

</R>

28


annuity income upon annuitization under the MGIB rider. This means the benefit you receive under the MGIB rider will not be as great because of the transfer.

Net transfers from Excluded Funds will also reduce the MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. But the resulting increase in the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds will equal the lesser of the contract value transferred and the reduction in the MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds. What this means, if in the previous example the transfer was from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds, is there would be no change in the value of your MGIB Benefit Base because of the transfer – the amount of the transfer between the fund categories is the same, $250, because the MGIB Benefit Base calculation is based on the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds, versus the calculation basis for Excluded Funds with the MGIB Charge Base. The MGIB Charge Base calculation is instead based on the MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds. As a result, this same transfer, having no change in the value of your MGIB Benefit Base, would result in the MGIB Charge Base being reduced. The net effect of this transfer: You pay less for the same minimum guaranteed amount of annuity income upon annuitization of the MGIB rider.

     MGIB Date. If you purchased the MGIB rider on the contract date or added the MGIB rider within 30 days following the contract date, the MGIB Date is the contract anniversary on or after the tenth contract anniversary when you decide to exercise your right to annuitize under the MGIB rider. If you added the MGIB rider at any other time, your MGIB Date is the contract anniversary occurring at least 10 years after the date when you decide to exercise your right to annuitize under the MGIB rider.

     MGIB Annuity Income. Ordinarily, the amount of income that will be available to you on the annuity start date is based on your contract value, the annuity option you selected and the guaranteed income factors or the income factors in effect on the date you annuitize. If you purchase the MGIB rider, the amount of income that will be available to you upon annuitization on the MGIB Date is the greatest of:

1)      your annuity income based on your contract value on the MGIB Date adjusted for any market value adjustment (see Appendix C) applied to the guaranteed income factors specified in your Contract for the annuity option you selected;
2)      your annuity income based on your contract value on the MGIB Date adjusted for any market value adjustment (see Appendix C) applied to the then-current income factors in effect for the annuity option you selected; or
3)      the MGIB annuity income based on your MGIB Benefit Base on the MGIB Date applied to the MGIB income factors specified in your rider for the MGIB annuity option you selected. Prior to applying the MGIB income factors, we will adjust the MGIB Benefit Base for any surrender charge, premium tax recovery and market value adjustment (see Appendix C) that would otherwise apply at annuitization.

     MGIB Income Factors. The guaranteed factors contained in the MGIB rider generally provide lower payout per $1,000 of value applied than the guaranteed income factors found in your Contract. Although the minimum income provided under the rider can be determined in advance, the contract value in the future is unknown, so the income provided under a contract with the MGIB rider attached may be greater or less than the income that would be provided under the Contract without the rider. Generally, the income calculated under the MGIB rider will be greater than the income provided under the Contract whenever the MGIB Benefit Base is sufficiently in excess of the contract value to offset the additional conservatism reflected in the MGIB rider’s income factors compared to those in the Contract. The income factors in the MGIB rider generally reflect a lower interest rate and more conservative mortality than the income factors in the Contract. The degree of relative excess that the income factors require to produce more income will vary for each individual circumstance. If the contract value exceeds the MGIB Benefit Base at time of annuitization, the Contract will always produce greater income than the MGIB rider. Please see “Appendix G — Examples of Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit Calculation.”

     MGIB Annuity Options. Prior to your latest annuity start date, you may choose to exercise your right to receive payments under the MGIB rider. Payments under the rider begin on the MGIB Date. We require a 10-year waiting period before you can annuitize the MGIB rider benefit. The MGIB must be exercised in the 30-day period

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

29


prior to the end of any contract anniversary that occurs at least ten years after the MGIB rider date. At your request, the Company may, at its discretion, extend the latest contract annuity start date without extending the MGIB Date.

The following are the MGIB annuity options available under the MGIB Rider:

1)      Income for Life (single life or joint life with 100% Survivor) and 10-20 year fixed period.
2)      Income for 20-30 year fixed period.
3)      Any other annuity option offered by the Company in conjunction with the MGIB rider on the MGIB Date.

Once during the life of the Contract, you have the option to elect to apply up to 50% of the MGIB Benefit Base to one of the MGIB annuity options available under the MGIB rider. This option may only be exercised in the 30 day period prior to a contract anniversary at or after the end of the waiting period. The portion of the MGIB Benefit Base so applied will be used to determine the MGIB income, as is otherwise described in the prospectus. The contract value will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. Any subsequent exercise of your right to receive payments under the MGIB rider must be for 100% of the remaining value. The exercise of this partial annuitization of the MGIB Benefit Base does not affect your right to annuitize remaining value under the Contract without regard to the MGIB rider. The amount applied to the partial annuitization will be treated as a withdrawal for purposes of adjusting contract and MGIB rider values. This means the contract and MGIB rider values will be adjusted on a pro-rata basis. See “Calculation of MGIB Rollup Bases” and “Calculation of MGIB Ratchet Bases” above. Surrender charges will apply to amounts applied to partial annuitization.

Please note that if you elect partial annuitization, annuity payments received will be treated as withdrawals by us. Please consult your tax adviser before making this election, as the Tax Code is unclear on the taxation of partial annuitization.

     Notification. On or before 30 days prior to each possible MGIB Date, we will provide you with a notification which will include an estimate of the amount of MGIB annuity benefit available if you choose to exercise it. We will determine the actual amount of the MGIB annuity benefit as of the MGIB Date.

     Change of Owner and Annuitant. The MGIB rider will terminate upon a change of ownership unless the change is due to spousal continuation at the time of the owner’s death. Once you purchase the MGIB rider, the annuitant may not be changed except when an annuitant who is not a contract owner dies prior to annuitization. In such a case, a new annuitant may be named in accordance with the provisions of your Contract. The MGIB Benefit Base is unaffected and continues to accumulate.

     Death of Owner. The MGIB rider and the MGIB rider charges automatically terminate if you die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple contract owners, or at death of the annuitant if the contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

The MGIB rider does not restrict or limit your right to annuitize the Contract at any time permitted under the Contract. The MGIB rider does not restrict your right to annuitize the Contract using Contract income factors that may be higher than the MGIB rider income factors.

The benefits associated with the MGIB rider are available only if you annuitize your Contract under the rider and in accordance with the provisions set forth above. Annuitizing using the MGIB may result in a more favorable stream of income payments, and different tax consequences, under your Contract. Because the MGIB rider income factors are generally more conservative than the Contract income factors, the level of lifetime income that it guarantees may be less than the level that might be provided by the application of your Contract value to the Contract’s applicable annuity factors. You should consider all of your options at the time you begin the income phase of your Contract.

ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider. The ING LifePay Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

30


level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of the annuitant, even if these withdrawals reduce your Contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are concerned that you may outlive your income.

Important Note:

We introduced the ING LifePay Plus rider on August 20, 2007 and launched changes to it on April 28, 2008 and January 12, 2009, subject to state approval where applicable. The form of the ING LifePay Plus rider available to you depends on state availability.

<R>

The below information pertains to the new form of the ING LifePay Plus rider available for sale beginning on May 1, 2009 in states where approved. If this form of the ING LifePay Plus rider is not yet approved for sale in your state, then please see Appendix J for the information about the form of the ING LifePay Plus rider available to you.

</R>

     Eligibility. The annuitant must be the owner or one of the owners, unless the owner is a non-natural owner. Joint annuitants are not allowed. The maximum issue age is 80 (owner and annuitant must age qualify). The issue age is the age of the owner (or the annuitant if there are joint owners or the owner is non-natural) on the rider effective date. The ING LifePay Plus rider is not available for purchase with the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit. The ING LifePay Plus rider is subject to broker/dealer availability. Please note that the ING LifePay Plus rider will not be issued until your contract value is allocated in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below.

Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 are eligible for the ING LifePay Plus rider, subject to the conditions, requirements and limitations of the prior paragraph. Such Contracts must not already have a living benefit rider. There is an election form for this purpose. Please contact the Customer Service Center for more information.

Rider Effective Date. The rider effective date is the date that coverage under the ING LifePay Plus rider begins. If you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider when the Contract is issued, the rider effective date is also the Contract date. If the ING LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue, the rider effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once each quarter of a contract year from the contract date.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you: a) cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period; b) surrender the Contract; c) begin the income phase and start receiving annuity payments; or d) otherwise terminate the Contract pursuant to its terms. These events automatically cancel the ING LifePay Plus rider.

Termination. The ING LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you: Terminate your Contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender your Contract, or begin receiving income phase payments in lieu of payments under the ING LifePay Plus rider; or Die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract. The ING LifePay Plus rider also terminates with a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation on your death). Other circumstances that may cause the ING LifePay Plus rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

     Highlights. This paragraph introduces the terminology of the ING LifePay Plus rider and how its components generally work together. Benefits and guarantees are subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the ING LifePay Plus rider. More detailed information follows below, with the capitalized words that are underlined indicating headings for ease of reference. The ING LifePay Plus rider guarantees an amount available for withdrawal from the Contract in any contract year once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins – we use the ING LifePay Plus Base as part of the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is available for withdrawals at your discretion or systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Also, the ING LifePay Plus rider offers the Income Optimizer, which is the option to elect to receive

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

31


systematic installments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal over the annuitant’s life. The guarantee continues when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, at which time we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (since Contract value would be zero) until the annuitant’s death. The ING LifePay Plus Base is eligible for Annual Ratchets and Step-ups, and subject to adjustment for any Excess Withdrawals. The ING LifePay Plus rider has an allowance for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that would otherwise be Excess Withdrawals. The ING LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING LifePay Plus rider allows for spousal continuation.

<R>

     ING LifePay Plus Base. The ING LifePay Plus Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider: on the Contract date – equal to the initial premium ; or after the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the effective date of the rider .

The ING LifePay Plus Base is increased, dollar for dollar, by any subsequent premiums . We refer to the ING LifePay Plus Base as the MGWB Base in the ING LifePay Plus rider.

</R>

Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including for payment of third-party investment advisory fees, have no impact on the ING LifePay Plus Base. These withdrawals will not incur surrender charges, a negative Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations or any premium credit deduction (recapture).

Say for example the current Contract value is $90,000 on a Contract with the ING LifePay Plus rider in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The ING LifePay Plus Base is $100,000, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. Even though a withdrawal of $5,000 would reduce the Contract value to $85,000, the ING LifePay Plus Base would remain at its current level (as would the Maximum Annual Withdrawal as well) since the withdrawal did not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. See below for more information about the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

<R>

An Excess Withdrawal is a withdrawal either before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins (except for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), or once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, any portion of a withdrawal during a contract year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. An Excess Withdrawal is also a withdrawal after spousal continuation of the Contract but before the ING LifePay Plus rider’s guarantees resume, which occurs on the next quarterly contract anniversary following spousal continuation. An Excess Withdrawal will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base – in the same proportion as Contract value is reduced by the portion of the withdrawal that is considered excess, inclusive of surrender charges, or Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations or any premium credit deduction (recapture) (rather than the total amount of the withdrawal). An Excess Withdrawal will also cause the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Appendix G, Illustrations 1, 2 and 6 for examples of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal.

</R>

Please note that any withdrawals before the rider effective date in the same contract year when the ING LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

<R>

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

</R>

Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, we reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING LifePay Plus rider upon the Annual Ratchet. You will never pay more than new issues of the ING LifePay Plus rider, subject to the maximum annual charge, and we promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. 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, 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 Percentages is below under “Maximum Annual Withdrawal.” Our written notice will also remind you of the consequences of canceling the forthcoming Annual Ratchet.

<R>

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 you took no withdrawals during the preceding contract year – to equal the greatest of: the current ING LifePay Plus Base; the current Contract value ; and the ING LifePay Plus Base on the previous contract anniversary, increased by the Step-up.

The amount of the Step-up is the product of the Step-up Tracker on the previous contract anniversary times the Step-up percent, currently 6%. The Step-up Tracker is only used to calculate the amount of the Step-up. Initially, it equals the ING LifePay Plus Base. Any premiums received during a contract year are added to the Step-up Tracker and eligible for a partial Step-up. Any withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees are subtracted from the Step-up. Like the ING LifePay Plus Base, the Step-up Tracker is eligible for Annual Ratchets and subject to a pro-rata adjustment for any Excess Withdrawals.

</R>

Please note that no partial Step-up is available in the first year after you purchase this rider post issue of the Contract. Your first opportunity for a Step-up will not be until the first contract anniversary after a full contract year has elapsed since the rider effective date. Say for example that with a Contract purchased on January 1, 2007, the contract owner decides to add the ING LifePay Plus rider on March 15, 2007. The rider effective date is April 1, 2007, which is the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. Because on January 1, 2008 a full contract year will not have elapsed since the rider effective date, the ING LifePay Plus Base will not be eligible for a Step-up. Rather, the first opportunity for a Step-up with this Contract is on January 1, 2009.

<R>

     Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of your first withdrawal (except those for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), SO LONG AS the annuitant is age 59½. On this date, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of the current ING LifePay Base or the Contract value on the previous business day . The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase will continue until the earliest of:

</R>
1)      the date annuity payments begin (see “The Annuity Options”);
2)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by an Excess Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
4)      surrender of the Contract; or
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

The ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status in the event Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” below for more information.

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 applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the Annuitant’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base.

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

33


The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:

<R>
  Ages 
4%  59 ½ to 64 
5%  65-75 
6%  76-79 
7%  80+ 

</R>

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is thereafter recalculated whenever the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated, for example, upon the Annual Ratchet or a Step-up. Also, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage can increase with the Annual Ratchet as the annuitant grows older.

<R>

In the event on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins the Contract value on the previous business day is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base, then before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated, the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to that Contract value . The greater the ING LifePay Plus Base, the greater the amount guaranteed to be available to you for withdrawals under the ING LifePay Plus rider in calculating the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the first time.

Income Optimizer. The ING LifePay Plus rider offers the option to elect to receive the Maximum Annual Withdrawal in systematic installments over the annuitant’s life. We call this option the Income Optimizer. You may elect the Income Optimizer during the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. This election is in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options, and these payments will be subject to the same tax treatment as an annuity payment. Please see “Federal Tax Considerations” for more information. The Income Optimizer is only available on non-qualified contracts.

The frequency of payments under the Income Optimizer may be annual, quarterly or monthly. While you are receiving payments under the Income Optimizer, the ING LifePay Plus Base remains eligible for Annual Ratchets. Your Contract may still have a Contract value and death benefit. Spousal continuation of payments under the Income Optimizer is permitted. Any withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal are Excess Withdrawals that would cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base, as well as a reduction of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Your election is subject to restrictions – you may not: revoke your election; add on premiums; exchange the Contract; annuitize the Contract; or change ownership (except as permitted under “Change of Owner or Annuitant” below). Once you choose the frequency of payments, you may not change it. Also, the specified percentage of your Contract value required to be allocated to Fixed Allocation Funds is higher, and the investment options available for this purpose are limited. Please see “Investment Option Restrictions” below for the details. You may surrender your Contract at any time.

Payments under the Income Optimizer will continue until the Terminal Date, at which time you waive any remaining Contract value and death benefit and the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The Terminal Date is the contract anniversary following the annuitant’s 95th birthday. Alternatively, you may wish to extend the Terminal Date to the contract anniversary following the annuitant’s 115th birthday in order to liquidate your Contract value that may remain before the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Regardless, your payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will continue during the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until the death of the annuitant. We will notify you in writing in advance of the Terminal Date to remind you of this alternative and how to extend the Terminal Date.

</R>

Lifetime Income Annuity Option. In the event the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while the ING LifePay Plus rider is in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, you may elect a life only annuity option, in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options. Payments under this option are based on the minimum annual payment factors for each $1,000 reflected in the rider data table and will never be less than the same frequency of payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal at that time. For more information about the Contract’s annuity options, see “The Annuity Options.”

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

34


Required Minimum Distributions. The ING LifePay Plus rider allows for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal without causing a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and recalculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, then an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Once you have taken the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year, the dollar amount of any additional withdrawals will count first against and reduce any unused Additional Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount for the current calendar year – without constituting an Excess Withdrawal. See Appendix G, Illustration 3 for an example.

Withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and all available Additional Withdrawal Amounts are Excess Withdrawals that will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Appendix G, Illustration 5 for an example of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal with an Additional Withdrawal Amount. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is available on a calendar year basis and recalculated every January, reset to equal that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date. Any unused amount of the Additional Withdrawal Amount carries over into the next calendar year and is available through the end of that year, at which time any amount remaining will expire. See Appendix G, Illustration 4 for an example of the Additional Withdrawal Amount being carried over. Please note that there is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount for Annual Ratchets or upon spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus Rider.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status when your Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. (A withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal that causes your Contract value to be reduced to zero will terminate the ING LifePay Plus rider.) You will no longer be entitled to make withdrawals, but instead will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status: the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under the ING LifePay Plus rider; no further premium payments will be accepted; and any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the annuitant at which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the annuitant’s death.

If when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status your net withdrawals to date are less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you the difference immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the first Contract anniversary following the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

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. Also, the ING LifePay Plus Base remains eligible for Step-ups. Once the ING LifePay Plus rider enters the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, periodic payments will begin in an annual amount equal to the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the annuitant’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base.

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Under a systematic withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

35


such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made annually, then the payments will be made on each following contract anniversary.

     Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING LifePay Plus 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 the required specified percentage of such Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds, which is 30%; 40% with the Income Optimizer.

See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below. 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 ING LifePay Plus 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.

<R>

Accepted Funds. Currently, the Accepted Funds are:

</R> <R>
BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund  ING MFS Total Return Portfolio 
ING American Funds Asset Allocation Portfolio  ING Oppenheimer Active Allocation Portfolio 
ING American Funds World Allocation Portfolio  ING Russell Global Large Cap Index 75% Portfolio 
ING LifeStyle Conservative Portfolio  ING T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio 
ING LifeStyle Growth Portfolio  ING Van Kampen Equity and Income Portfolio 
ING LifeStyle Moderate Growth Portfolio  ING Van Kampen Global Tactical Asset Allocation

BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund  ING Liquid Assets Portfolio 
ING LifeStyle Conservative Portfolio  ING Van Kampen Equity and Income Portfolio 
ING LifeStyle Moderate Growth Portfolio  Fixed Interest Allocation

</R>

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.

<R>

Fixed Allocation Funds. Currently, the Fixed Allocation Funds:

</R> <R>
ING American Funds Bond Portfolio  ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than the required specified percentage of the total Contract value allocated among the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any ING LifePay Plus Rebalancing Date (30%; 40% with the Income Optimizer), we will automatically rebalance the Contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that the required specified percentage of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on the rider effective date and each quarterly Contract anniversary. Also, after the following transactions:

1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you;
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix H – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.” You will be notified that Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred, along with your new allocations, by a confirmation statement that will be mailed to you after Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred.

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in it. See “Appendix H – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

     Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charges pro-rated) on the date of death of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner), or the annuitant if there is a non-natural owner. Also, an ING LifePay Plus rider that is in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status terminates on the date of the annuitant’s death.

<R>

ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base. The ING LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider: On the Contract date – equal to the initial premium ; Or after the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the rider effective date .

The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is increased by the dollar amount of any subsequent premiums and subject to any withdrawal adjustments. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is reduced by the dollar amount of any withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, and for any withdrawals once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins that are not Excess Withdrawals, including withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is subject to a pro-rata reduction for an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “ING LifePay Plus Base - Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals” above for more information.

</R>

There is no additional charge for the death benefit associated with the ING LifePay Plus rider. Please note that the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is not eligible to participate in Annual Ratchets or Step-ups.

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

37


In the event the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than zero when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, each periodic payment reduces the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base dollar for dollar until the earlier date of the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base being reduced to zero or the annuitant’s death. Upon the annuitant’s death, any remaining ING LifePay Plus death benefit is payable to the beneficiary in a lump sum.

<R>

Spousal Continuation. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue , provided the spouse becomes the annuitant and sole owner. At the time the Contract is continued, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the Contract value , inclusive of the guaranteed death benefit – UNLESS the continuing spouse is a joint owner and the original annuitant, OR the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has not yet begun. In this case, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of: the Contract value , inclusive of the guaranteed death benefit; and the last calculated ING LifePay Plus Base, subject to pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation. Regardless, the ING LifePay Plus rider’s guarantees resume on the next quarterly contract anniversary following spousal continuation. Any withdrawals after spousal continuation of the Contract but before the ING LifePay Plus rider’s guarantees resume are Excess Withdrawals. The ING LifePay Plus rider remains eligible for the Annual Ratchet upon recalculation of the ING LifePay Plus Base.

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is also recalculated at the same time as the ING LifePay Plus Base; however, there is no Maximum Annual Withdrawal upon spousal continuation until the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of the first withdrawal after spousal continuation, SO LONG AS the annuitant is age 59½. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated to equal the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the new annuitant’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base. There is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount upon spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus rider for a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code. Any withdrawals before the owner’s death and spousal continuation are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

Please note, if the Contract value on the previous business day is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to that Contract value before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated. The rider will be eligible for any Step-ups that may remain, and the Step-up Tracker will be recalculated at the same time as the ING LifePay Plus Base. Also, upon spousal continuation, the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base equals the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base before the owner’s death, subject to any pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation of the rider.

</R>

In the event the Income Optimizer was elected, systematic installments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will continue, SO LONG AS the surviving spouse as annuitant is age 59½. The amount of these continuing payments may change since both the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal are recalculated based on the new annuitant’s age. The rider under the Income Optimizer will remain subject to the higher required specified percentage for allocations to the Fixed Allocation Funds, even if upon spousal continuation the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has not yet begun, and there is no Maximum Annual Withdrawal, because the annuitant is not yet age 59½.

Contrary to the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus rider would likely NOT take effect at the same time as the Contract is continued. As noted above, the ING LifePay Plus rider provides for spousal continuation only on a quarterly contract anniversary (subject to the spouse becoming the annuitant and sole owner). So if you are concerned about the availability of benefits being interrupted with spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus rider, you might instead want to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

<R>

ESII - 152940

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charge pro-rated) upon any ownership change or change of annuitant, except for:

1)      spousal continuation as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual;
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      change in trust as owner where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual;
7)      change of owner from an individual to a trust where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual;
8)      change of owner from a trust to an individual where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual;
9)      change of owner pursuant to a court order; and
10)      change of qualified plan ownership to that of the beneficial owner.
<R>

     Surrender Charges. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, your withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (and any applicable Additional Withdrawal Amount) are not subject to surrender charges. We waive any surrender charges otherwise applicable to your withdrawal in a contract year that is less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Excess Withdrawals are subject to surrender charges, whether or not the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has begun. Once your Contract value is reduced to zero, any periodic payments under the ING LifePay Plus rider would not be subject to surrender charges. Moreover, with no contract value, none of your contract level recurring charges (e.g., the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge) would be deducted. See Appendix G for examples.

</R>

Loans. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the ING LifePay Plus rider.

     Taxation. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING LifePay Plus Rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of both you and your spouse, even if these withdrawals reduce your Contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are married and concerned that you and your spouse may outlive your income.

<R>

Important Note: We introduced the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider on August 20, 2007 and launched changes to it on April 28, 2008 and January 12, 2009, subject to state approval where applicable. The form of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider available to you depends on state availability.

</R>

The below information pertains to the new form of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider available for sale beginning on May 1, 2009, in states where approved. If this form of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is not yet approved for sale in your state, then please see Appendix J for the information about the form of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider available to you.

     Eligibility. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is only available for purchase by individuals who are married at the time of purchase (spouses) and eligible to elect spousal continuation (as defined by the Tax Code) of the Contract when the death benefit becomes payable, subject to the owner, annuitant and beneficiary requirements below. The maximum issue age is 80. Both spouses must meet the issue age requirement. The issue age is the age of each owner on the rider effective date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is not available for purchase with the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is subject to broker/dealer availability. Please note that the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will not be issued unless the required owner, annuitant and beneficiary designations are met, and until your contract value is allocated in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below.

<R>

ESII - 152940

39


Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 are eligible for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, subject to the conditions, requirements and limitations of the prior paragraph. Such Contracts must not already have a living benefit rider. There is an election form for this purpose. Please contact the Customer Service Center for more information.

Owner, Annuitant and Beneficiary Designations. For nonqualified contracts: Joint owners must be spouses, and one of the owners the annuitant; and For a Contract with only one owner, the owner’s spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary. For qualified contracts, there may only be one owner who must also be the annuitant, and then the owner’s spouse must also be the sole primary beneficiary. Non-natural, custodial owners are only allowed with IRAs. Owner and beneficiary designations for custodial IRAs must be the same as for any other qualified contract. The annuitant must be the beneficial owner of the custodial IRA. We require the custodian to provide us the name and date of birth of both the owner and owner’s spouse. We do not maintain individual owner and beneficiary designations for custodial IRAs. We reserve the right to verify the date of birth and social security number of both spouses.

Rider Effective Date. The rider effective date is the date that coverage under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider begins. If you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider when the Contract is issued, the rider effective date is also the Contract date. If the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue, the rider effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once each quarter of a contract year from the contract date.

Active Spouse. An Active Spouse is the person (people) upon whose life and age the guarantees are calculated under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. There must be two Active Spouses when you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, who are married to each other and either are joint owners, or for a Contract with only one owner, the spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary. You cannot add an Active Spouse after the rider effective date. In general, changes in ownership of the Contract, the annuitant and/or beneficiary would result in one spouse being deactivated (the spouse is thereafter inactive). An inactive spouse is not eligible to exercise any rights or receive any benefits under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, including continuing the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider upon spousal continuation of the Contract. Once an Active Spouse is deactivated, the spouse may not become an Active Spouse again. Specific situations that would result in a spouse being deactivated include:

1)      for nonqualified contracts where the spouses are joint owners, the removal of a joint owner (if that spouse does not automatically become sole primary beneficiary pursuant to the terms of the Contract), or the change of one joint owner to a person other than an Active Spouse;
2)      for nonqualified contracts where one spouse is the owner and the other spouse is the sole primary beneficiary, as well as for IRA contracts (including custodial IRAs), the addition of a joint owner who is not also an Active Spouse or any change of beneficiary (including the addition of primary beneficiaries); or
3)      the spouse’s death.

An owner may also request that a spouse be deactivated. Both owners must agree when there are joint owners.

However, all charges for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider would continue to apply, even after a spouse is deactivated, regardless of the reason. So please be sure to understand the impact of any beneficiary or owner changes on the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider before requesting any changes. Also, please note that a divorce terminates the ability of an ex-spouse to continue the Contract. See “Divorce” below for more information.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you: a) cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period; b) surrender the Contract; c) begin the income phase and start receiving annuity payments; or d) otherwise terminate the Contract pursuant to its terms. These events automatically cancel the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

Termination. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you and your spouse while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you: Terminate your Contract pursuant

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender your Contract, or begin receiving income phase payments in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider; or Die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract (and your spouse is an Active Spouse). The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider also terminates with a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation on your death by an Active Spouse). Other circumstances that may cause the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

     Highlights. This paragraph introduces the terminology of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and how its components generally work together. Benefits and guarantees are subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. More detailed information follows below, with the capitalized words that are underlined indicating headings for ease of reference. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider guarantees an amount available for withdrawal from the Contract in any contract year once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins – we use the ING LifePay Plus Base as part of the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is available for withdrawals at your discretion or systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Also, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider offers the Income Optimizer, which is the option to elect to receive systematic installments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal over the lives of both Active Spouses. The guarantee continues when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, at which time we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (since Contract value would be zero) until the last Active Spouse’s death. The ING LifePay Plus Base is eligible for Annual Ratchets and Step-ups, and subject to adjustment for any Excess Withdrawals. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has an allowance for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that would otherwise be Excess Withdrawals. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider allows for spousal continuation.

<R>

     ING LifePay Plus Base. The ING LifePay Plus Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider: on the Contract date – equal to the initial premium; or after the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the effective date of the rider.

The ING LifePay Plus Base is increased, dollar for dollar, by any subsequent premiums. We refer to the ING LifePay Plus Base as the MGWB Base in the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including for payment of third-party investment advisory fees, have no impact on the ING LifePay Plus Base. These withdrawals will not incur surrender charges or a negative Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations.

Say for example the current Contract value is $90,000 on a Contract with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The ING LifePay Plus Base is $100,000, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. Even though a withdrawal of $5,000 would reduce the Contract value to $85,000, the ING LifePay Plus Base would remain at its current level (as would the Maximum Annual Withdrawal as well) since the withdrawal did not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. See below for more information about the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

An Excess Withdrawal is a withdrawal either before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins (except for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), or once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, any portion of a withdrawal during a contract year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. An Excess Withdrawal will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base – in the same proportion as Contract value is reduced by the portion of the withdrawal that is considered excess, inclusive of surrender charges, or Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations (rather than the total amount of the withdrawal). An Excess Withdrawal will also cause the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Appendix H, Illustrations 1, 2 and 6 for examples of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal.

Please note that any withdrawals before the rider effective date in the same contract year when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

<R>

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

</R>

Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, we reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider upon the 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 promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. 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, 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 Percentages is below under “Maximum Annual Withdrawal.” Our written notice will also remind you of the consequences of canceling the forthcoming Annual Ratchet.

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 you took no withdrawals during the preceding contract year – to equal the greatest of: the current ING LifePay Plus Base; the current Contract value; and the ING LifePay Plus Base on the previous contract anniversary, increased by the Step-up.

<R>

The amount of the Step-up is the product of the Step-up Tracker on the previous contract anniversary times the Step-up percent, currently 6%. The Step-up Tracker is only used to calculate the amount of the Step-up. Initially, it equals the ING LifePay Plus Base. Any premiums received during a contract year are added to the Step-up Tracker and eligible for a partial Step-up. Any withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees are subtracted from the Step-up. Like the ING LifePay Plus Base, the Step-up Tracker is eligible for Annual Ratchets and subject to a pro-rata adjustment for any Excess Withdrawals.

</R>

Please note that no partial Step-up is available in the first year after you purchase this rider post issue of the Contract. Your first opportunity for a Step-up will not be until the first contract anniversary after a full contract year has elapsed since the rider effective date. Say for example that with a Contract purchased on January 1, 2007, the contract owner decides to add the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider on March 15, 2007. The rider effective date is April 1, 2007, which is the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. Because on January 1, 2008 a full contract year will not have elapsed since the rider effective date, the ING LifePay Plus Base will not be eligible for a step-up. Rather, the first opportunity for a step-up with this Contract is on January 1, 2009.

<R>

     Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of your first withdrawal (except those for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), SO LONG AS the youngest Active Spouse is age 59½. On this date, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of the current ING LifePay Base or the Contract value on the previous business day. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase will continue until the earliest of:

</R>
1)      the date annuity payments begin (see “The Annuity Options”);
2)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by an Excess Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
4)      surrender of the Contract;
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary is an Active Spouse who elects to continue the Contract; or
6)      the last Active Spouse dies.
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status in the event Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” below for more information.

Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is the amount that the ING Joint 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 applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the younger Active Spouse’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base.

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:

<R>
  Ages 
4%  59 ½ to 64 
5%  65-75 
6%  76-79 
7%  80+ 

</R>

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is thereafter recalculated whenever the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated, for example, upon the Annual Ratchet or a Step-up. Also, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage can increase with the Annual Ratchet as the younger Active Spouse grows older.

<R>

In the event on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins the Contract value on the previous business day is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base, then before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated, the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to that Contract value. The greater the ING LifePay Plus Base, the greater the amount guaranteed to be available to you for withdrawals under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider in calculating the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the first time.

Income Optimizer. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider offers the option to elect to receive the Maximum Annual Withdrawal in systematic installments over the lives of both Active Spouses. We call this option the Income Optimizer. You may elect the Income Optimizer during the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. This election is in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options, and these payments will be subject to the same tax treatment as an annuity payment. The Income Optimizer is only available on non-qualified contracts.

The frequency of payments under the Income Optimizer may be annual, quarterly or monthly. While you are receiving payments under the Income Optimizer, the ING LifePay Plus Base remains eligible for Annual Ratchets. Your Contract may still have a Contract value and death benefit. Spousal continuation of payments under the Income Optimizer is permitted. Any withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal are Excess Withdrawals that would cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base, as well as a reduction of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Your election is subject to restrictions – you may not: revoke your election; add on premiums; exchange the Contract; annuitize the Contract; or change ownership (except as permitted under “Change of Owner or Annuitant” below). Once you choose the frequency of payments, you may not change it. Also, the specified percentage of your Contract value required to be allocated to Fixed Allocation Funds is higher, and the investment options available for this purpose are limited. Please see “Investment Option Restrictions” below for the details. You may surrender your Contract at any time.

Payments under the Income Optimizer will continue until the Terminal Date, at which time you waive any remaining Contract value and death benefit and the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The Terminal Date is the contract anniversary following the youngest Active Spouse’s 95th birthday. Alternatively, you may wish to extend the Terminal Date to the contract anniversary following the youngest Active Spouse’s 115th birthday in order to liquidate your Contract value that may remain before the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Regardless, your payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will continue during the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until

ESII - 152940

</R>

43


<R>

the death of the last Active Spouse. We will notify you in writing in advance of the Terminal Date to remind you of this alternative and how to extend the Terminal Date.

</R>

Lifetime Income Annuity Option. In the event the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, you may elect a life only annuity option, in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options. Payments under this option will be joint life if both Active Spouses are living, or for the life of the only Active Spouse, and are based on the minimum annual payment factors for each $1,000 reflected in the rider data table. Also, these payments will never be less than the same frequency of payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal at that time. For more information about the Contract’s annuity options, see “The Annuity Options.”

Required Minimum Distributions. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider allows for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal without causing a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and recalculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, then an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Once you have taken the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year, the dollar amount of any additional withdrawals will count first against and reduce any unused Additional Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount for the current calendar year – without constituting an Excess Withdrawal. See Appendix H, Illustration 3 for an example.

Withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and all available Additional Withdrawal Amounts are Excess Withdrawals that will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Appendix H, Illustration 5 for an example of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal with an Additional Withdrawal Amount. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is available on a calendar year basis and recalculated every January, reset to equal that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date. Any unused amount of the Additional Withdrawal Amount carries over into the next calendar year and is available through the end of that year, at which time any amount remaining will expire. See Appendix H, Illustration 4 for an example of the Additional Withdrawal Amount being carried over. Please note that there is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount for Annual Ratchets or upon spousal continuation of the ING Joint LifePay Plus Rider.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status when your Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. (A withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal that causes your Contract value to be reduced to zero will terminate the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.) You will no longer be entitled to make withdrawals, but instead will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status: the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider; no further premium payments will be accepted; and any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the last Active Spouse at which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the last Active Spouse’s death.

If when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status your net withdrawals to date are less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you the difference immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the first Contract anniversary following the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

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 youngest Active Spouse is age 59½.

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

44


During this time, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider’s death benefit remains payable upon the last Active Spouse’s death. Also, the ING LifePay Plus Base remains eligible for Step-ups. Once the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, periodic payments will begin in an annual amount equal to the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the youngest Active Spouse’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base. If an Active Spouse were to die while Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status is deferred, then when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, and the annual amount of the periodic payments, would be based on the remaining Active Spouse’s age.

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Under a systematic withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made annually, then the payments will be made on each following contract anniversary.

     Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING Joint LifePay Plus 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 the required specified percentage of such Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds, which is 30%; 40% with the Income Optimizer.

See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below. We have these investment option restrictions to lessen the likelihood we would have to make payments under with this rider. We require this allocation regardless of your investment instructions to the Contract. The ING Joint LifePay Plus 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.

<R>

Accepted Funds. Currently, the Accepted Funds are:

</R> <R>
BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund  ING MFS Total Return Portfolio 
ING American Funds Asset Allocation Portfolio  ING Oppenheimer Active Allocation Portfolio 
ING American Funds World Allocation Portfolio  ING Russell Global Large Cap Index 75% Portfolio 
ING LifeStyle Conservative Portfolio  ING T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio 
ING LifeStyle Growth Portfolio  ING Van Kampen Equity and Income Portfolio 
ING LifeStyle Moderate Growth Portfolio  ING Van Kampen Global Tactical Asset Allocation 
  Portfolio 
ING LifeStyle Moderate Portfolio  Fixed Interest Allocation 
ING Liquid Assets Portfolio   

</R> <R>

Currently, the Accepted Funds for the Income Optimizer are:

</R> <R>
BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund  ING Liquid Assets Portfolio 
ING LifeStyle Conservative Portfolio  ING Van Kampen Equity and Income Portfolio 
ING LifeStyle Moderate Growth Portfolio  Fixed Interest Allocation 
ING LifeStyle Moderate Portfolio   

</R>

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.

<R>

ESII - 152940

<R>

Fixed Allocation Funds. Currently, the Fixed Allocation Funds are:

</R> <R>
ING American Funds Bond Portfolio  ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio 
ING BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio  ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio 
ING U.S. Bond Index Portfolio   

</R> <R>
</R> <R>

You may allocate your contract value to one or more Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.

</R>

Other Funds. All portfolios available under the Contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than the required specified percentage of the total Contract value allocated among the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Date (30%; 40% with the Income Optimizer), we will automatically rebalance the Contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that the required specified percentage of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on the rider effective date and each quarterly Contract anniversary. Also, after the following transactions:

1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you;
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.” You will be notified that Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred, along with your new allocations, by a confirmation statement that will be mailed to you after Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred.

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in it. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

     Divorce. Generally, in the event of divorce, the spouse who retains ownership of the Contract will continue to be entitled to all rights and benefits of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, while the ex-spouse will not longer have any such rights or be entitled to any such benefits. In the event of a divorce during the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider would continue until the owner’s death (first owner in the case of joint owners, or annuitant in the case of a custodial IRA). Although spousal continuation may be available under the Tax Code for a subsequent spouse, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider cannot be continued by the new spouse. As a result of the divorce, we may be required to withdraw assets for the benefit of an ex-spouse. Any such withdrawal would be

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

46


considered a withdrawal for purposes of the ING LifePay Plus Base. See “ING LifePay Plus Base – Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals” above. In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, there will be no change in the amount of your periodic payments. Payments will continue until both spouses are deceased.

     Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charges prorated) on the earlier of the date of death of the last Active Spouse, or when the surviving spouse decides not to continue the Contract.

<R>

ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the first owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider: On the Contract date – equal to the initial premium; Or after the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the rider effective date.

</R>

The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is increased by the dollar amount of any subsequent premiums and subject to any withdrawal adjustments. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is reduced by the dollar amount of any withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, and for any withdrawals once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins that are not Excess Withdrawals, including withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is subject to a pro-rata reduction for an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “ING LifePay Plus Base – Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals” above for more information.

There is no additional charge for the death benefit associated with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. Please note that the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is not eligible to participate in Annual Ratchets or Step-ups.

In the event the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than zero when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, each periodic payment reduces the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base dollar for dollar until the earlier date of the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base being reduced to zero or the last Active Spouse’s death. Upon the last Active Spouse’s death, any remaining ING LifePay Plus death benefit is payable to the beneficiary in a lump sum.

Spousal Continuation. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue, SO LONG AS the surviving spouse in an Active Spouse. At that time the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of: the Contract value, inclusive of the guaranteed death benefit; and the last calculated ING LifePay Plus Base, subject to pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation.

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is also recalculated; however, there is no Maximum Annual Withdrawal upon spousal continuation until the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of the first withdrawal after spousal continuation, SO LONG AS the last Active Spouse is age 59½. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated to equal the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the last Active Spouse’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base. There is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount upon spousal continuation of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider for a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code. Any withdrawals before the owner’s death and spousal continuation are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

<R>

Please note, if the Contract value on the previous business day is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to that Contract value before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated. The rider will be eligible for any Step-ups that may remain, and the Step-up Tracker will be recalculated at the same time as the ING LifePay Plus Base. Also, upon spousal continuation, the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base equals the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base before the owner’s death, subject to any pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation of the rider.

ESII - 152940

</R>

47


     Change of Owner or Annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charge prorated) upon an ownership change or change of annuitant, except for:

1)      spousal continuation as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual (owner’s spouse must be named sole primary beneficiary to remain an Active Spouse);
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      for nonqualified contracts only, the addition of a joint owner, provided the added joint owner is the original owner’s spouse and is an Active Spouse when added as a joint owner;
7)      for nonqualified contracts only, the removal of a joint owner, provided the removed joint owner is an Active Spouse and becomes the sole primary beneficiary; and
8)      change of owner where the owner becomes the sole primary beneficiary and the sole primary beneficiary becomes the owner, provided both spouses are Active Spouses at the time of the change.
<R>

     Surrender Charges. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, your withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (and any applicable Additional Withdrawal Amount) are not subject to surrender charges. We waive any surrender charges otherwise applicable to your withdrawal in a contract year that is less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Excess Withdrawals are subject to surrender charges, whether or not the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has begun. Once your Contract value is reduced to zero, any periodic payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider would not be subject to surrender charges. Moreover, with no contract value, none of your contract level recurring charges (e.g., the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge) would be deducted. See Appendix H for examples.

</R>

Loans. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

     Taxation. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING Joint LifePay Plus Rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

WITHDRAWALS

Except under certain qualified contracts, you may withdraw all or part of your money any time during the accumulation phase and before the death of the contract owner. If you request a withdrawal for more than 90% of the cash surrender value, and the remaining cash surrender value after the withdrawal is less than $2,500, we will treat it as a request to surrender the Contract. If any single withdrawal or the sum of withdrawals exceeds the Free Withdrawal Amount, you will incur a surrender charge. The Free Withdrawal Amount is the total of (i) your cumulative earnings (which is your contract value less premium payments received and prior withdrawals), and (ii) 10% of premium payments not previously withdrawn received within 8 years prior to the date of the withdrawal.

You need to submit to us a written request specifying the Fixed Interest Allocations or subaccounts from which to withdraw amounts, otherwise we will make the withdrawal on a pro-rata basis from all of the subaccounts in which you are invested. If there is not enough contract value in the subaccounts, we will deduct the balance of the withdrawal from your Fixed Interest Allocations starting with the guaranteed interest periods nearest their maturity dates until we have honored your request. We will apply a Market Value Adjustment to any withdrawal from your Fixed Interest Allocation taken more than 30 days before its maturity date. Definitive guidance on the proper federal tax treatment of the Market Value Adjustment has not been issued. You may want to discuss the potential tax consequences of a Market Value Adjustment with your tax adviser. We will determine the contract value as of the close of business on the day we receive your withdrawal request at our Customer Service Center. The contract value may be more or less than the premium payments made.

If any limitation on allocations to the Restricted Funds has been exceeded, subsequent withdrawals must be taken so that the percentage of contract value in the Restricted Funds following the withdrawal would not be greater than the

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

48


percentage of contract value in the Restricted Funds prior to the withdrawal. So in this event, you would either need to take your withdrawal from the Restricted Funds or pro-rata from all variable subaccounts.

<R>

Please be aware that the benefit we pay under certain optional benefit riders may be reduced by any withdrawals you take while the optional benefit rider is in effect. Withdrawals may be subject to taxation and tax penalties.

</R>

We offer the following three withdrawal options:

Regular Withdrawals

After the free look period, you may make regular withdrawals. Each withdrawal must be a minimum of $100. We will apply a Market Value Adjustment to any regular withdrawal you take from a Fixed Interest Allocation more than 30 days before its maturity date. See Appendix C for more information on the application of Market Value Adjustment.

Systematic Withdrawals

<R>

You may choose to receive automatic, systematic withdrawal (i) from the contract value in the subaccounts in which you are invested, or (ii) from the interest earned in your Fixed Interest Allocations. You may not elect the systematic withdrawal option if you are taking IRA withdrawals. Systematic withdrawals may be taken monthly, quarterly or annually. If you have contract value allocated to one or more Restricted Funds, and you elect to receive systematic withdrawals from the subaccounts in which you are invested, the systematic withdrawals must be taken pro-rata from all subaccounts in which contract value is invested. If you do not have contract value allocated to a Restricted Fund and choose systematic withdrawals on a non pro-rata basis, we will monitor the withdrawals annually. If you subsequently allocate contract value to one or more Restricted Funds, we will require you to take your systematic withdrawals on a pro-rata basis from all subaccounts in which contract value is invested. There is no additional charge for this feature.

You decide the date on which you would like your systematic withdrawals to start. This date must be at least 30 days after the Contract Date and no later than the 28th day of the month. Subject to these rules, if you have not indicated the date, your systematic withdrawals will occur on the next business day after your Contract Date (or the monthly or quarterly anniversary thereof) for your desired frequency.

</R>

Each systematic withdrawal amount must be a minimum of $100. The amount of your systematic withdrawal can either be (i) a fixed dollar amount or (ii) an amount based on a percentage of the premiums not previously withdrawn from the subaccounts in which you are invested. Both forms of systematic withdrawals are subject to the applicable maximum as shown below, which is calculated on each withdrawal date:

  Maximum Percentage 
  of Premiums 
Frequency  not Previously Withdrawn 
Monthly  0.83% 
Quarterly  2.50% 
Annually  10.00% 

<R>

A fixed dollar systematic withdrawal of less than $100 on any withdrawal date will terminate your systematic withdrawal. If the amount to be withdrawn would exceed the applicable maximum percentage of your premium payments not previously withdrawn on any withdrawal date,

ESII - 152940

</R>

49


we will automatically reduce the amount withdrawn so that it equals such percentage. Thus, your fixed dollar systematic withdrawals will never exceed the maximum percentage. If you want fixed dollar systematic withdrawals to exceed the maximum percentage and are willing to incur associated surrender charges, consider the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature discussed below which you may add to your regular fixed dollar systematic withdrawal program.

If your systematic withdrawal is based on a percentage of the premiums not previously withdrawn from the subaccounts in which you are invested, and the amount to be withdrawn based on that percentage would be less than $100, we will automatically increase the amount to $100 as long as it does not exceed the maximum percentage. If the systematic withdrawal would exceed the maximum percentage, we will send the amount, and then automatically cancel your systematic withdrawal option.

We limit systematic withdrawals from Fixed Interest Allocations to interest earnings during the prior month, quarter, or year, depending on the frequency you chose. Systematic withdrawals are not subject to a Market Value Adjustment, unless you have added the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature discussed below and the payments exceed interest earnings. Systematic withdrawals from Fixed Interest Allocations under the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature are available only in connection with Section 72(q) and 72(t) distributions. A Fixed Interest Allocation may not participate in both the systematic withdrawal option and the dollar cost averaging program at the same time.

You may change the amount or percentage of your systematic withdrawal once each contract year or cancel this option at any time by sending satisfactory notice to our Customer Service Center at least 7 days before the next scheduled withdrawal date. If you submit a subsequent premium payment after you have applied for systematic withdrawals, we will not adjust future withdrawals under the systematic withdrawal program unless you specifically request that we do so. The systematic withdrawal option may commence in a contract year where a regular withdrawal has been taken but you may not change the amount or percentage of your withdrawals in any contract year during which you have previously taken a regular withdrawal.

Subject to availability, a spousal or non-spousal beneficiary may elect to receive death benefits as payments over the beneficiary’s lifetime (“stretch”). Stretch payments will be subject to the same limitations as systematic withdrawals, and non-qualified stretch payments will be reported on the same basis as other systematic withdrawals.

Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature

You may add the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature to your regular fixed dollar systematic withdrawal program. This feature allows you to receive a systematic withdrawal in a fixed dollar amount in addition to your systematic withdrawal program regardless of any potential impact of surrender charges or Market Value Adjustments. Systematic withdrawals from Fixed Interest Allocations under the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature are available only in connection with Section 72(q) and 72(t) distributions. You choose the amount of the fixed systematic withdrawals, which may total up to an annual maximum of 10% of your premium payments not previously withdrawn as determined on the day we receive your election of this feature. We will not recalculate the maximum limit when you make additional premium payments, unless you instruct us to do so. We will assess a surrender charge on the withdrawal date if the withdrawal exceeds the maximum limit as calculated on the withdrawal date. We will assess a Market Value Adjustment on the withdrawal date if the withdrawal from a Fixed Interest Allocation exceeds your interest earnings on the withdrawal date. We will apply the surrender charge and any Market Value Adjustment directly to your contract value (rather than to the withdrawal) so that the amount of each systematic withdrawal remains fixed.

Fixed dollar systematic withdrawals which are intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 72(q) or 72(t) of the Tax Code may exceed the maximum. Such withdrawals are subject to surrender charges and Market Value Adjustments when they exceed the applicable maximum percentage.

IRA Withdrawals

If you have a non-Roth IRA Contract and will be at least age 70½ during the current calendar year, you may elect to have distributions made to you to satisfy requirements imposed by federal tax law. IRA withdrawals provide payout of amounts required to be distributed by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) rules governing mandatory distributions under qualified plans. We will send you a notice before your distributions commence. You may elect

to take IRA withdrawals at that time, or at a later date. You may not elect IRA withdrawals and participate in systematic withdrawals at the same time. If you do not elect to take IRA withdrawals, and distributions are required by federal tax law, distributions adequate to satisfy the requirements imposed by federal tax law may be made. Thus, if you are participating in systematic withdrawals, distributions under that option must be adequate to satisfy the mandatory distribution rules imposed by federal tax law.

<R>

You choose the frequency of your IRA withdrawals (monthly, quarterly or annually) and the start date . This date must be at least 30 days after the Contract Date and no later than the 28th day of the month. Subject to these rules, if you have not indicated the date, your IRA withdrawals will occur on the next business day after your Contract Date for your desired frequency .

</R>

You may request us to calculate the amount you are required to withdraw from your Contract each year based on the information you give us and various choices you make. For information regarding the calculation and choices you have, see the SAI. Or, we will accept your written instructions regarding the calculated amount required to be withdrawn from your Contract each year. The minimum dollar amount you can withdraw is $100. When we determine the required IRA withdrawal amount for a taxable year based on the frequency you select, if that amount is less than $100, we will pay $100. At any time where the IRA withdrawal amount is greater than the contract value, we will cancel the Contract and send you the amount of the cash surrender value.

You may change the payment frequency of your IRA withdrawals once each contract year or cancel this option at any time by sending satisfactory notice to our Customer Service Center at least 7 days before the next scheduled withdrawal date.

An IRA withdrawal from a Fixed Interest Allocation in excess of the amount allowed under systematic withdrawals will be subject to a Market Value Adjustment and may be subject to surrender charge.

Consult your tax adviser regarding the tax consequences associated with taking withdrawals. You are responsible for determining that withdrawals comply with applicable law. A withdrawal made before the taxpayer reaches age 59½ may result in a 10% penalty tax. See “Federal Tax Considerations” for more details.

TRANSFERS AMONG YOUR INVESTMENTS (EXCESSIVE TRADING POLICY)

Between the end of the free look period and the annuity start date, you may transfer your contract value among the subaccounts in which you are invested and your Fixed Interest Allocations. We currently do not charge you for transfers made during a contract year, but reserve the right to charge for each transfer after the twelfth transfer in a contract year. We also reserve the right to limit the number of transfers you may make and may otherwise modify or terminate transfer privileges if required by our business judgment or in accordance with applicable law. We will apply a Market Value Adjustment to transfers from a Fixed Interest Allocation taken more than 30 days before its maturity date, unless the transfer is made under the dollar cost averaging program. Keep in mind that transfers between Covered Funds, Special Funds and Excluded Funds and other investment portfolios may negatively impact your death benefit or rider benefits.

If you allocate contract value to an investment option that has been designated as a Restricted Fund, your ability to transfer contract value to the Restricted Fund may be limited. A transfer to the Restricted Funds will not be permitted to the extent that it would increase the contract value in the Restricted Fund to more than the applicable limits following the transfer. We do not limit transfers from Restricted Funds. If the result of multiple reallocations is to lower the percentage of total contract value in the Restricted Fund, the reallocation will be permitted even if the percentage of contract value in the Restricted Fund is greater than the limit.

<R>

Please be aware that the benefit we pay under an optional benefit rider may be affected by certain transfers you make while the rider is in effect. Transfers, including those involving Special Funds or Excluded Funds, may also affect your optional rider base. See “Living Benefit Riders.”

The minimum amount that you may transfer is $100 or, if less, your entire contract value held in a subaccount or a Fixed Interest Allocation. To make a transfer, you must notify our Customer Service Center and all other administrative requirements must be met. We will determine transfer values at the end of the business day on which we receive the transfer request at our Customer Service Center. If we receive your transfer request after 4 p.m. eastern time or the close of regular trading of the New York Stock Exchange, we will make the transfer on the next business day.

Separate Account B and the Company will not be liable for following instructions communicated by telephone or other approved electronic means that we reasonably believe to be genuine. We may require personal identifying information to process a request for transfer made over the telephone, over the internet or other approved electronic means. Please be advised that the risk of a fraudulent transaction is increased with telephonic or electronic instructions, even if appropriate identifying information is provided.

Limits on Frequent or Disruptive Transfers

The contract is not designed to serve as a vehicle for frequent transfers. Frequent transfer activity can disrupt management of a fund and raise its expenses through:

  • Increased trading and transaction costs;
  • Forced and unplanned portfolio turnover;
  • Lost opportunity costs; and
  • Large asset swings that decrease the fund’s ability to provide maximum investment return to all contract owners.

This in turn can have an adverse effect on fund performance. Accordingly, individuals or organizations that use market-timing investment strategies or make frequent transfers should not purchase the contract.

Excessive Trading Policy. We and the other members of the ING family of companies that provide multi-fund variable insurance and retirement products, have adopted a common Excessive Trading Policy to respond to the demands of the various fund families that make their funds available through our products to restrict excessive fund trading activity and to ensure compliance with Rule 22c-2 of the 1940 Act.

We actively monitor fund transfer and reallocation activity within our variable insurance products to identify violations of our Excessive Trading Policy. Our Excessive Trading Policy is violated if fund transfer and reallocation activity:

  • Meets or exceeds our current definition of Excessive Trading, as defined below; or
  • Is determined, in our sole discretion, to be disruptive or not in the best interests of other owners of our variable insurance and retirement products.

We currently define Excessive Trading as:

  • More than one purchase and sale of the same fund (including money market funds) within a 60 calendar day period (hereinafter, a purchase and sale of the same fund is referred to as a “round-trip”). This means two or more round-trips involving the same fund within a 60 calendar day period would meet our definition of Excessive Trading; or
  • Six round-trips involving the same fund within a twelve month period.
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

52


The following transactions are excluded when determining whether trading activity is excessive:

  • Purchases or sales of shares related to non-fund transfers (for example, new purchase payments, withdrawals and loans);
  • Transfers associated with scheduled dollar cost averaging, scheduled rebalancing or scheduled asset allocation programs;
  • Purchases and sales of fund shares in the amount of $5,000 or less;
  • Purchases and sales of funds that affirmatively permit short-term trading in their fund shares, and movement between such funds and a money market fund; and
  • Transactions initiated by us, another member of the ING family of insurance companies or a fund.

If we determine that an individual or entity has made a purchase of a fund within 60 days of a prior round-trip involving the same fund, we will send them a letter (once per year) warning that another sale of that same fund within 60 days of the beginning of the prior round-trip will be deemed to be Excessive Trading and result in a six month suspension of their ability to initiate fund transfers or reallocations through the Internet, facsimile, Voice Response Unit (VRU), telephone calls to the ING Customer Service Center, or other electronic trading medium that we may make available from time to time (“Electronic Trading Privileges”). Likewise, if we determine that an individual or entity has made five round-trips involving the same fund within a rolling twelve month period, we will send them a letter warning that another purchase and sale of that same fund within twelve months of the initial purchase in the first round-trip in the prior twelve month period will be deemed to be Excessive Trading and result in a suspension of their Electronic Trading Privileges. According to the needs of the various business units, a copy of the warning letters may also be sent, as applicable, to the person(s) or entity authorized to initiate fund transfers or reallocations, the agent/registered representative or investment adviser for that individual or entity. A copy of the warning letters and details of the individual’s or entity’s trading activity may also be sent to the fund whose shares were involved in the trading activity.

If we determine that an individual or entity has violated our Excessive Trading Policy, we will send them a letter stating that their Electronic Trading Privileges have been suspended for a period of six months. Consequently, all fund transfers or reallocations, not just those which involve the fund whose shares were involved in the activity that violated our Excessive Trading Policy, will then have to be initiated by providing written instructions to us via regular U.S. mail. Suspension of Electronic Trading Privileges may also extend to products other than the product through which the Excessive Trading activity occurred. During the six month suspension period, electronic “inquiry only” privileges will be permitted where and when possible. A copy of the letter restricting future transfer and reallocation activity to regular U.S. mail and details of the individual’s or entity’s trading activity may also be sent, as applicable, to the person(s) or entity authorized to initiate fund transfers or reallocations, the agent/registered representative or investment adviser for that individual or entity and the fund whose shares were involved in the activity that violated our Excessive Trading Policy.

Following the six month suspension period during which no additional violations of our Excessive Trading Policy are identified, Electronic Trading Privileges may again be restored. We will continue to monitor the fund transfer and reallocation activity, and any future violations of our Excessive Trading Policy will result in an indefinite suspension of Electronic Trading Privileges. A violation of our Excessive Trading Policy during the six month suspension period will also result in an indefinite suspension of Electronic Trading Privileges.

We reserve the right to suspend Electronic Trading Privileges with respect to any individual or entity, with or without prior notice, if we determine, in our sole discretion, that the individual’s or entity’s trading activity is disruptive or not in the best interests of other owners of our variable insurance products, regardless of whether the individual’s or entity’s trading activity falls within the definition of Excessive Trading set forth above.

Our failure to send or an individual’s or entity’s failure to receive any warning letter or other notice contemplated under our Excessive Trading Policy will not prevent us from suspending that individual’s or entity’s Electronic Trading Privileges or taking any other action provided for in our Excessive Trading Policy.

We do not allow exceptions to our Excessive Trading Policy. We reserve the right to modify our Excessive Trading Policy, or the policy as it relates to a particular fund, at any time without prior notice, depending on, among other factors, the needs of the underlying fund(s), the best interests of contract owners and fund investors and/or state or

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

53


federal regulatory requirements. If we modify our policy, it will be applied uniformly to all contract owners or, as applicable, to all contract owners investing in the underlying fund.

Our Excessive Trading Policy may not be completely successful in preventing market timing or excessive trading activity. If it is not completely successful, fund performance and management may be adversely affected, as noted above.

Limits Imposed by the Funds. Each underlying fund available through the variable insurance and retirement products offered by us and/or the other members of the ING family of insurance companies, either by prospectus or stated contract, has adopted or may adopt its own excessive/frequent trading policy, and orders for the purchase of fund shares are subject to acceptance or rejection by the underlying fund. We reserve the right, without prior notice, to implement fund purchase restrictions and/or limitations on an individual or entity that the fund has identified as violating its excessive/frequent trading policy and to reject any allocation or transfer request to a subaccount if the corresponding fund will not accept the allocation or transfer for any reason. All such restrictions and/or limitations (which may include, but are not limited to, suspension of Electronic Trading Privileges and/or blocking of future purchases of a fund or all funds within a fund family) will be done in accordance with the directions we receive from the fund.

Agreements to Share Information with Fund Companies. As required by Rule 22c-2 under the 1940 Act, we have entered into information sharing agreements with each of the fund companies whose funds are offered through the contract. Contract owner trading information is shared under these agreements as necessary for the fund companies to monitor fund trading and our implementation of our Excessive Trading Policy. Under these agreements, the company is required to share information regarding contract owner transactions, including but not limited to information regarding fund transfers initiated by you. In addition to information about contract owner transactions, this information may include personal contract owner information, including names and social security numbers or other tax identification numbers.

As a result of this information sharing, a fund company may direct us to restrict a contract owner’s transactions if the fund determines that the contract owner has violated the fund’s excessive/frequent trading policy. This could include the fund directing us to reject any allocations of premium or contract value to the fund or all funds within the fund family.

Dollar Cost Averaging

<R>

You may elect to participate in our dollar cost averaging (DCA) program through either the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio or a Fixed Interest Allocation, subject to availability, starting 30 days after the Contract Date. These investment options serve as the source accounts from which we will, on a monthly basis, automatically transfer a set dollar amount of money to the subaccounts you specify. There is no additional charge for dollar cost averaging. Dollar cost averaging is not available with automatic rebalancing and may be subject to limited availability with systematic withdrawals.

We also may offer DCA Fixed Interest Allocations for durations of 6 months and 1 year, subject to availability, exclusively for use with the dollar cost averaging program.

</R>

The dollar cost averaging program is designed to lessen the impact of market fluctuation on your investment. Since we transfer the same dollar amount to other subaccounts each month, more units of a subaccount are purchased if the value of its unit is low and fewer units are purchased if the value of its unit is high. Therefore, a lower than average value per unit may be achieved over the long term. However, we cannot guarantee this. When you elect the dollar cost averaging program, you are continuously investing in securities regardless of fluctuating price levels. You should consider your tolerance for investing through periods of fluctuating price levels.

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

54


<R>

Dollar cost averaging requires a minimum monthly transfer amount of $100. We will transfer all your money allocated to that source account into the subaccount(s) you specify in equal payments over the relevant duration. The last payment will include earnings accrued over the duration. If you make an additional premium payment into a Fixed Interest Allocation subject to dollar cost averaging, the amount of your transfers under the dollar cost averaging program remains the same, unless you instruct us to increase the transfer amount.

</R>

Transfers under the dollar cost averaging program are not subject to a Market Value Adjustment. However, if you terminate the dollar cost averaging program for a DCA Fixed Interest Allocation and there is money remaining in the DCA Fixed Interest Allocation, we will transfer the remaining money to the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio. Such transfer will trigger a Market Value Adjustment if the transfer is made more than 30 days before the maturity date of the DCA Fixed Interest Allocation.

If you do not specify to which subaccounts you want to transfer the dollar amount of the source account, we will transfer the money to the subaccounts in which you are invested on a proportional basis, subject to any fund purchase restrictions. The transfer date is the same day each month as your contract date. If, on any transfer date, your contract value in a source account is equal or less than the amount you have elected to have transferred, the entire amount will be transferred and the program will end. You may terminate the dollar cost averaging program at any time by sending satisfactory notice to our Customer Service Center at least 7 days before the next transfer date.

Transfers under the DCA program must be in compliance with the investment restrictions for the living benefit riders. If you set up DCA transfers that are not in compliance with such restrictions, the fixed allocation funds automatic rebalancing feature of those living benefit riders will automatically rebalance the amounts to bring them into compliance.

You are permitted to transfer contract value to a Restricted Fund, subject to the limitations described above in this section and in “Trusts and Funds – Restricted Funds.” Compliance with the individual and aggregate Restricted Fund limits will be reviewed when the dollar cost averaging program is established. Transfers under the dollar cost averaging program must be within those limits. We will not review again your dollar cost averaging election for compliance with the individual and aggregate limits for investment in the Restricted Funds except in the case of the transactions described below.

  • Amount added to source account: If you add amounts to the source account which would increase the amount to be transferred under the dollar cost averaging program, we will review the amounts to be transferred to ensure that the individual and aggregate limits are not being exceeded. If such limits would be exceeded, we will require that the dollar cost averaging transfer amounts be changed to ensure that the transfers are within the limits based on the then-current allocation of contract value to the Restricted Fund(s) and the then-current value of the amount designated to be transferred to that Restricted Fund(s).
  • Additional premium paid: Up to the individual Restricted Fund percentage limit may be allocated to a Restricted Fund. If you request more than the individual limit be allocated to a Restricted Fund, we will look at the aggregate limit, subtract the current allocation to Restricted Funds, and subtract the current value of amounts to be transferred under the dollar cost averaging program to Restricted Funds. The excess, if any, is the maximum that may be allocated pro-rata to the Restricted Funds.
  • Reallocation request is made while the dollar cost averaging program is active: If the reallocation would increase the amount allocated to Restricted Funds, the maximum that may be so allocated is the individual Restricted Fund percentage limit, less the current allocation to Restricted Funds and less the current value of any remaining amounts to be transferred under the dollar cost averaging program to the Restricted Funds.

We may offer additional subaccounts or fixed interest allocations as part of or withdraw any subaccount or Fixed Interest Allocation to or from the dollar cost averaging program, stop offering DCA Fixed Interest Allocations or otherwise modify, suspend or terminate this program. Such change will not affect any dollar cost averaging programs in operation at the time.

<R>

ESII - 152940

Automatic Rebalancing

If you have at least $10,000 of contract value invested in the subaccounts of Separate Account B, you may elect to have your investments in the subaccounts automatically rebalanced. Automatic rebalancing is not available if you participate in dollar cost averaging. Automatic rebalancing will not take place during the free look period. Automatic rebalancing is subject to any fund purchase restrictions; however, transfers made pursuant to automatic rebalancing do not count toward the 12-transfer limit on free transfers. There is no additional charge for this feature.

You are permitted to reallocate between Restricted and non-Restricted Funds, subject to the limitations described above, in this section and in “Trust and Funds – Restricted Funds.” If the reallocation would increase the amount allocated to the Restricted Funds, the maximum that may be so allocated is the individual Restricted Fund percentage limit, less the current allocation to all Restricted Funds.

We will transfer funds under your Contract on a quarterly, semi-annual, or annual calendar basis among the subaccounts to maintain the investment blend of your selected subaccounts. The minimum size of any allocation must be in full percentage points. Rebalancing does not affect any amounts that you have allocated to Fixed Account II. The program may be used in conjunction with the systematic withdrawal option only if withdrawals are taken pro-rata.

To participate in automatic rebalancing, send satisfactory notice to our Customer Service Center. We will begin the program on the last business day of the period in which we receive the notice. You may cancel the program at any time. The program will automatically terminate if you choose to reallocate your contract value among the subaccounts or if you make an additional premium payment or partial withdrawal on other than a pro-rata basis. Additional premium payments and partial withdrawals made on a pro-rata basis will not cause the automatic rebalancing program to terminate.

DEATH BENEFIT CHOICES

Death Benefit During the Accumulation Phase

<R>

During the accumulation phase, a death benefit (and earnings multiplier benefit, if elected) is payable when either the contract owner or the first of joint owners or the annuitant (when a contract owner is not an individual) dies before the annuity start date. Assuming you are the contract owner, your beneficiary will receive a death benefit unless the beneficiary is your surviving spouse and elects to continue the Contract. We calculate the death benefit value as of the close of the business day on which we receive written notice and due proof of death, as well as any required paperwork, at our Customer Service Center (“claim date”). If your beneficiary wants to receive the death benefit on a date later than this, it may affect the amount of the benefit payable in the future. The proceeds may be received in a single sum, applied to any of the annuity options, or, if available, paid over the beneficiary’s lifetime. (See “Systematic Withdrawals,” above). A beneficiary’s right to elect an annuity option or receive a lump-sum payment may have been restricted by the contract owner. If so, such rights or options will not be available to the beneficiary.

If we do not receive a request to apply the death benefit proceeds to an annuity option, we will make a single sum distribution. Unless you elect otherwise, the distribution will be made into an interest bearing account, backed by our general account that is accessed by the beneficiary through a checkbook feature. The beneficiary may access death benefit proceeds at any time without penalty. Interest credited under this account may be less than under other settlement options, and the Company seeks to make a profit on these accounts. We will generally pay death benefit proceeds within 7 days after our Customer Service Center has received sufficient information to make the payment. For information on required distributions under federal income tax laws, you should see “Required Distributions upon Contract Owner’s Death.” Interest earned on this account may be less than interest paid on other settlement options.

</R>

You may choose one of the following Death Benefits: (i) the Standard Death Benefit, (ii) the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit or (iii) the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit. The Standard Death Benefit is available SO

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

56


LONG AS both the annuitant and the contract owner are age 80 or younger at the time of application. Availability of an Enhanced Death Benefit option plus a living benefit rider is subject to the following limitations.

Maximum  Option  Additional Requirement 
Issue Age     
79  Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit  ING LifePay Plus rider or ING Joint LifePay 
    Plus rider is also purchased. 
75  Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit  All living benefit riders are available. 
69  Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit  No living benefit rider is available. 

The maximum issue age applies to both the annuitant and contract owner at the time of application. The Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit is not available for purchase with any living benefit rider. Also, the maximum issue age for a Contract with the Standard Death Benefit is limited to age 75 to purchase the MGIB rider.

Before May 1, 2009, the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit was available SO LONG AS both the contract owner and the annuitant (if the contract owner is not an individual) were age 79 or younger at the time of application AND you purchased the ING LifePay Plus rider or ING Joint LifePay Plus rider (or the version of the lifetime guaranteed withdrawal benefit rider available to you). Otherwise, the maximum issue age was 75 for a Contract with either the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit or the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit. Before January 12, 2009, the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit was available in place of the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit. Before April 28, 2008, the maximum issue age was 79 for a Contract with either the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit or Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit. The Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit or Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit are available only at the time you purchase your Contract. Neither the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit nor Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit is available when a Contract is owned by joint owners, or joint annuitants if the contract owners are not individuals. Not all death benefits are available in every state. If you do not choose a death benefit, your death benefit will be the Standard Death Benefit.

Once you choose a death benefit, you cannot change it. We may stop or suspend offering any of the Enhanced Death Benefit options to new Contracts. A change in ownership of the Contract may affect the amount of the death benefit and the Enhanced Death Benefit. The ING LifePay Plus and ING Joint LifePay Plus riders may also affect the death benefit.

The death benefit may be subject to certain mandatory distribution rules required by federal tax law.

In all cases described below, the amount of the death benefit could be reduced by premium taxes owed and withdrawals not previously deducted.

     Base Death Benefit. We use the Base Death Benefit to help determine the minimum death benefit payable under each of the death benefit options described below. You do not elect the Base Death Benefit. The Base Death Benefit is equal to the greater of:

1)      the contract value; or
2)      the cash surrender value.

Standard Death Benefit. The Standard Death Benefit equals the greater of:

1)      the Base Death Benefit; and
2)      the Standard Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit (“Standard MGDB”) for amounts allocated to Covered Funds plus the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds.

Covered Funds are all investment options not designated as Excluded Funds. No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds for purposes of the Standard Death Benefit.

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

57


The Standard MGDB allocated to Covered Funds equals premium payments allocated to Covered Funds less pro-rata adjustments for any withdrawals and transfers.

The Standard MGDB allocated to Excluded Funds equals premium payments allocated to Excluded Funds less pro-rata adjustments for any withdrawals and transfers. This calculation is not used for benefit purposes, but only to determine the impact of transfers to and from Excluded Funds.

<R>

Withdrawals reduce the Standard MGDB on a pro-rata basis. The percentage reduction in the Standard MGDB for each Fund category (i.e., Covered or Excluded) equals the percentage reduction in contract value in that Fund category resulting from the withdrawal. The pro-rata adjustment is based on the change in contract value resulting from the withdrawal, not the amount requested.

</R>

Transfers among Fund categories do not reduce the overall Standard MGDB.

  • Net transfers from Covered Funds to Excluded Funds will reduce the Standard MGDB in the Covered Funds on a pro-rata basis. The increase in the Standard MGDB allocated to Excluded Funds will equal the decrease in the Standard MGDB in Covered Funds.
  • Net transfers from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds will reduce the Standard MGDB in Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. The increase in the Standard MGDB allocated to Covered Funds will equal the lesser of the net contract value transferred and the decrease in the Standard MGDB in Excluded Funds.

     Enhanced Death Benefit Options. The Contract has Enhanced Death Benefit options designed to protect the contract value from poor investment performance and the impact that poor investment performance could have on the Standard Death Benefit. The Enhanced Death Benefit options enable you to lock in positive investment performance. Under the Enhanced Death Benefit options, if you die before the annuity start date, your beneficiary will receive the greater of the Standard Death Benefit or the Enhanced Death Benefit option elected. The criteria to lock are different. The Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit locks annually. The Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit not only locks annually, but also has an additional element that locks annually at a specified interest rate, so your death benefit under the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit would be the greater of these two elements. Which Enhanced Death Benefit option is right for you ultimately depends on whether you want the lock to include a specified interest rate, besides the additional charge. The Enhanced Death Benefit options are explained further below.

Before January 12, 2009, the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit was available in place of the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit; the frequency of the ratchet component was quarterly for both Enhanced Death Benefit options: the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit and Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit.

Allocation restrictions apply for purposes of determining death benefits. Selecting a Special Fund or Excluded fund may limit or reduce the Enhanced Death Benefit. We may, with 30 days notice to you, designate any investment portfolio as a Special Fund or Excluded Fund on existing contracts with respect to new premiums added to such investment portfolio and also with respect to new transfers to such investment portfolio.

For the period during which a portion of the contract value is allocated to a Special Fund or Excluded Fund, we may, at our discretion, reduce the mortality and expense risk charge attributable to that portion of the contract value. The reduced mortality and expense risk charge will be applicable only during that period.

The Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit equals the greater of:

1)      the Standard Death Benefit; and
2)      the Annual Ratchet Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit (“Annual Ratchet MGDB”) allocated to Covered Funds plus the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds.

Covered Funds are all investment options not designated as Excluded Funds. No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds for purposes of the Annual Ratchet MGDB.

<R>

58


The Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit was the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit before January 12, 2009, so the Annual Ratchet MGDB was the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB.

The Annual Ratchet MGDB allocated to Covered Funds on the contract date equals the premium allocated to Covered Funds. On each contract anniversary that occurs on or prior to attainment of age 90, the Annual Ratchet MGDB in Covered Funds will be set to the greater of:

<R>
1)      the current contract value in Covered Funds (after deductions occurring as of that date); and
2)      the Annual Ratchet MGDB in Covered Funds from the prior contract anniversary (after deductions occurring on that date), adjusted for new premiums, partial withdrawals attributable to Covered Funds, and transfers.
</R>

Other than on contract anniversaries, the Annual Ratchet MGDB in the Covered Funds is equal to the Annual Ratchet MGDB in the Covered Funds from the last contract anniversary, adjusted for new premiums, partial withdrawals attributable to Covered Funds, and transfers.

Before January 12, 2009, the Annual Ratchet MGDB allocated to Covered Funds was the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB allocated to Covered Funds. On the contract date, the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in Covered Funds equals the premium allocated to Covered Funds. On each quarterly anniversary (three months from the contract date and each three month anniversary of that date) that occurs on or prior to attainment of age 90, the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in Covered Funds will be set to the greater of:

1)      the current contract value in Covered Funds (after deductions occurring as of that date); and
2)      the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in Covered Funds from the prior quarterly anniversary (after deductions occurring on that date), adjusted for new premiums, partial withdrawals attributable to Covered Funds, and transfers.

Other than on quarterly anniversaries, the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in the Covered Funds is equal to the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in the Covered Funds from the last quarterly anniversary, adjusted for new premiums, partial withdrawals attributable to Covered Funds, and transfers.

The Annual Ratchet MGDB allocated to Excluded Funds on the contract date equals the premium allocated to Excluded Funds. The calculation is not used for benefit purposes, but only to determine the impact of transfers to and from Excluded Funds. On each contract anniversary that occurs on or prior to attainment of age 90, the Annual Ratchet MGDB in Excluded Funds will be set to the greater of:

1)      the current contract value in Excluded Funds (after deductions occurring as of that date); or
2)      the Annual Ratchet MGDB in the Excluded Funds from the prior contract anniversary (after deductions occurring on that date), adjusted for new premiums, partial withdrawals attributable to Excluded Funds, and transfers.

Other than on contract anniversaries, the Annual Ratchet MGDB in the Excluded Funds is equal to the Annual Ratchet MGDB in the Excluded Funds from the last contract anniversary, adjusted for new premiums, partial withdrawals attributable to Excluded Funds, and transfers.

Before January 12, 2009, the Annual Ratchet MGDB allocated to Excluded Funds was the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB allocated to Excluded Funds. The calculation is not used for benefit purposes, but only to determine the impact of transfers to and from Excluded Funds. On each quarterly anniversary that occurs on or prior to attainment of age 90, the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in Excluded Funds will be set to the greater of:

1) the current contract value in Excluded Funds (after deductions occurring as of that date); or

Other than on quarterly anniversaries, the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in the Excluded Funds is equal to the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in the Excluded Funds from the last quarterly anniversary, adjusted for new premiums, partial withdrawals attributable to Excluded Funds, and transfers.

Withdrawals reduce the Annual Ratchet MGDB on a pro-rata basis. The pro-rata adjustment is based on the change in contract value resulting from the withdrawal, not the amount requested.

Net transfers from Covered Funds to Excluded Funds will reduce the Annual Ratchet MGDB in Covered Funds on a pro-rata basis. The increase in the Annual Ratchet MGDB allocated to Excluded Funds, as applicable, will equal the decrease in the Annual Ratchet MGDB in Covered Funds.

Net transfers from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds will reduce the Annual Ratchet MGDB in Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. The increase in the Annual Ratchet MGDB allocated to Covered Funds will equal the lesser of the net contract value transferred and the reduction in the Annual Ratchet MGDB in Excluded Funds.

Before January 12, 2009, the Annual Ratchet MGDB was the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB. Withdrawals and net transfers to and from Covered Funds and Excluded Funds would have the same outcome.

The Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit equals the greater of the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit and the 7% Solution Death Benefit Element. Each element of the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit is determined independently of the other at all times.

Before January 12, 2009, the Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit was the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit.

The 7% Solution Death Benefit Element is the greater of:

1)      the Standard Death Benefit; and
2)      the lesser of:
  (a)      2.5 times all premium payments, adjusted for withdrawals (the “cap”); and
  (b)      the sum of the 7% Solution Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit Element (“7% MGDB”) allocated to Covered Funds, the 7% MGDB allocated to Special Funds, and the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds.

For Contracts issued prior to August 21, 2006, the cap is 3 times all premium payments, adjusted for withdrawals.

For purposes of calculating the 7% Solution Death Benefit Element, the following investment options are designated as Special Funds:

  • ING Liquid Assets Portfolio; and
  • Fixed Interest Allocation.

The ProFunds VP Rising Rates Opportunity Portfolio is also a Special Fund, but closed to new allocations effective April 30, 2007.

For Contracts issued prior to September 2, 2003, however, the ProFunds VP Rising Rates Opportunity Portfolio is not designated as a Special Fund.

<R>

ESII - 152940

The ING Limited Maturity Bond Portfolio is a Special Fund, but closed to new allocations effective March 12, 2004.

For Contracts issued on or after May 1, 2003, but prior to August 21, 2006, the ING VP Intermediate Bond Portfolio is designated as a Special Fund.

Covered Funds are all investment options not designated as Special Funds or Excluded Funds. No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds.

The 7% MGDB allocated to Covered Funds equals premiums allocated to Covered Funds, adjusted for withdrawals and transfers, accumulated at 7% annually until age 80 or the 7% MGDB reaches the cap. There is no accumulation once the cap is reached. Payment of additional premiums may cause the accumulation to resume, but there is no catch-up for any period where accumulation was suspended.

The 7% MGDB allocated to Special Funds equals premiums allocated to Special Funds, adjusted for withdrawals and transfers. There is no accumulation of 7% MGDB allocated to Special Funds.

The 7% MGDB allocated to Excluded Funds is determined in the same way as the 7% MGDB for Covered Funds, but the calculation is not used for benefit purposes, but only to determine the impact of transfers to and from Excluded Funds.

<R>

Withdrawals reduce the 7% MGDB on a pro-rata basis. The percentage reduction in the 7% MGDB for each Fund category (i.e., Covered, Special or Excluded) equals the percentage reduction in contract value in that Fund category resulting from the withdrawal. The percentage reduction in the cap equals the percentage reduction in total contract value resulting from the withdrawal. The pro-rata adjustment is based on the change in contract value resulting from the withdrawal, not the amount requested.

</R>

Transfers among Fund categories do not reduce the overall 7% MGDB, but do affect the amount of the 7% MGDB in a particular Fund category. Net transfers from among the Funds will reduce the 7% MGDB in the Funds on a pro-rata basis. The increase in the 7% MGDB allocated to the fund category to which the transfer is being made will equal the decrease in the fund category from which the transfer is being made.

Note:  In all cases described above, the amount of the death benefit could be reduced by premium taxes owed and 
  withdrawals not previously deducted. The enhanced death benefits may not be available in all states. 

     Earnings Multiplier Benefit Rider. The earnings multiplier benefit rider is an optional rider that provides a separate death benefit in addition to the death benefit provided under the death benefit options described above. The rider is subject to state availability and is available only for issue ages 75 or under. You may add it at issue of the Contract or, if not yet available in your state, on the next contract anniversary following introduction of the rider in your state. The date on which the rider is added is referred to as the “rider effective date.”

If the rider is added at issue, the rider provides a benefit equal to a percentage of the gain under the Contract, up to a gain equal to 150% of premiums adjusted for withdrawals (“Maximum Base”). Currently, if added at issue, the earnings multiplier benefit is equal to 55% (30% for issue ages 70 and above) of the lesser of: i) the Maximum Base; and ii) the contract value on the claim date minus premiums adjusted for withdrawals. If added after issue, the earnings multiplier benefit is equal to 55% (30% for issue ages 70 and above) of the lesser of: i) 150% of the contract value on the rider effective date, plus subsequent premiums adjusted for subsequent withdrawals; and ii) the contract value on the claim date minus the contract value on the rider effective date, minus subsequent premiums adjusted for subsequent withdrawals. The adjustment to the benefit for withdrawals is pro-rata, meaning that the benefit will be reduced by the proportion that the withdrawal bears to the contract value at the time of the withdrawal.

There is an extra charge for the earnings multiplier benefit rider and once selected, it may not be revoked. The rider does not provide a benefit if there is no gain under the Contract. As such, the Company would continue to assess a charge for the rider, even though no benefit would be payable at death under the rider if there are no gains under the

Contract. Please see “Charges and Fees – Charges Deducted from the Subaccounts – Optional Rider Charges -Earnings Multiplier Benefit Rider Charge” for a description of the charge.

The rider is available for both non-qualified and qualified contracts. Please see the discussions of possible tax consequences in “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit” in this prospectus.

Death Benefit During the Income Phase

If any contract owner or the annuitant dies after the annuity start date, we will pay the beneficiary any certain benefit remaining under the annuity in effect at the time.

Continuation After Death — Spouse

If at the contract owner’s death, the surviving spouse of the deceased contract owner is the beneficiary and such surviving spouse elects to continue the contract as his or her own, the following will apply:

If the guaranteed death benefit as of the date we receive due proof of death, minus the contract value on that date is greater than zero, we will add such difference to the contract value. We will allocate such addition to the variable subaccounts in proportion to the contract value in the subaccounts, unless you direct otherwise. If there is no contract value in any subaccount, we will allocate the addition to the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio, or its successor. Such addition to contract value will not affect the guaranteed death benefit or any living benefit rider values. Any addition to contract value is available only to the spouse of the owner as of the date of death of the owner if such spouse under the provisions of the contract elects to continue the contract as his or her own.

The death benefits under each of the available options will continue, based on the surviving spouse’s age on the date that ownership changes.

If you elect the Annual Ratchet Death Benefit (Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit before January 12, 2009) or the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit and the new or surviving owner is attained 89 or less, ratchets will continue, (or resume if deceased owner had already reached age 90) until the new or surviving owner reaches age 90. If you elected the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit, the new or surviving owner is attained age 79 or less, the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit continues or resumes accumulation until either the cap or the attained age of 80 is reached.

At subsequent surrender, we will waive any surrender charge applicable to premiums paid prior to the date we receive due proof of death of the contract owner. Any premiums paid later will be subject to any applicable surrender charge.

If you elected the earnings multiplier benefit rider, and the benefit would otherwise be payable, we will add the benefit to the contract value and allocate the benefit among the variable subaccounts in proportion to the contract value in the subaccounts, unless you direct otherwise. If there is no contract value in any subaccount, we will allocate the benefit to the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio, or its successor.

The earnings multiplier benefit rider will continue, if the surviving spouse is eligible, based on his or her attained age. If the surviving spouse is older than the maximum rider issue age, the rider will terminate. The Maximum Base and the percentages will be reset based on the adjusted contract value. The calculation of the benefit going forward will be: (i) based on the attained age of the spouse at the time of the ownership change using current values as of that date; (ii) computed as if the rider were added to the Contract after issue and after the increase; and (iii) based on the Maximum Base and percentages in effect on the original rider date. However, we may permit the surviving spouse to elect to use the then-current Maximum Base and percentages in the benefit calculation.

Continuation After Death — Not a Spouse

If the beneficiary or surviving joint owner is not the spouse of the owner, the contract may defer payment of the death benefit subject to the required distribution rules of the Tax Code. See next section, “Required Distributions Upon Contract Owner’s Death.”

If the guaranteed death benefit as of the date we receive due proof of death, minus the contract value also on that date, is greater than zero, we will add such difference to the contract value. Such addition will be allocated to the

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

62


variable subaccounts in proportion to the contract value in the subaccounts, unless we are directed otherwise. If there is no contract value in any subaccount, the addition will be allocated to the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio, or its successor.

The death benefit will then terminate. At subsequent surrender, any surrender charge applicable to premiums paid prior to the date we receive due proof of death of the contract owner will be waived. No additional premium payments may be made.

<R>

If you elected the earnings multiplier benefit rider, and the benefit would otherwise be payable, we will add the benefit to the contract value and allocate the benefit among the variable subaccounts in proportion to the contract value in the subaccounts, unless you direct otherwise. If there is no contract value in any subaccount, we will allocate the benefit to the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio, or its successor. The earnings multiplier benefit rider then terminates, whether or not a benefit was payable under the terms of the rider.

</R>

Required Distributions Upon Contract Owner’s Death

We will not allow any payment of benefits provided under a non-qualified Contract which does not satisfy the requirements of Section 72(s) of the Tax Code.

If any contract owner of a non-qualified contract dies before the annuity start date, we will distribute the death benefit payable to the beneficiary as follows: (a) the death benefit must be completely distributed within 5 years of the contract owner’s date of death; or (b) the beneficiary may elect, within the 1-year period after the contract owner’s date of death, to receive the death benefit in the form of an annuity from us, provided that (i) such annuity is distributed in substantially equal installments over the life of such beneficiary or over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of such beneficiary; and (ii) such distributions begin not later than 1 year after the contract owner’s date of death.

Notwithstanding (a) and (b) above, if the sole contract owner’s beneficiary is the deceased owner’s surviving spouse, then such spouse may elect to continue the Contract under the same terms as before the contract owner’s death. Upon receipt of such election from the spouse at our Customer Service Center: (i) all rights of the spouse as contract owner’s beneficiary under the Contract in effect prior to such election will cease; (ii) the spouse will become the owner of the Contract and will also be treated as the contingent annuitant, if none has been named and only if the deceased owner was the annuitant; and (iii) all rights and privileges granted by the Contract or allowed by us will belong to the spouse as contract owner of the Contract. We deem the spouse to have made this election if such spouse makes a premium payment to the Contract or fails to make a timely election as described in this paragraph.

If the owner’s beneficiary is not a spouse, the distribution provisions described in subparagraphs (a) and (b) above, will apply even if the annuitant and/or contingent annuitant are alive at the time of the contract owner’s death.

Subject to availability, and our then current rules, a spousal or non-spousal beneficiary may elect to receive death benefits as payments over the life expectancy of the beneficiary (“stretch”). “Stretch” payments will be subject to the same limitations as systematic withdrawals, and non-qualified “stretch” payments will be reported on the same basis as other systematic withdrawals.

If we do not receive an election from an owner’s beneficiary who is not a spouse within the 1-year period after the contract owner’s date of death, then we will pay the death benefit to the owner’s beneficiary in a cash payment within five years from the date of death. We will determine the death benefit as of the date we receive proof of death. Such cash payment will be in full settlement of all our liability under the Contract.

If a contract owner dies after the annuity start date, all of the contract owner’s rights granted under the Contract or allowed by us will pass to the contract owner’s beneficiary.

If a contract has joint owners, we will consider the date of death of the first joint owner as the death of the contract owner, and the surviving joint owner will become the beneficiary of the Contract. If any contract owner is not an individual, the death of an annuitant shall be treated as the death of a contract owner.

THE ANNUITY OPTIONS

Annuitization of Your Contract

If the annuitant and contract owner are living on the annuity start date, we will begin making payments to the contract owner under an income plan. Four fixed payment annuity options are currently available. We will make these payments under the annuity option you choose. You may change an annuity option by making a written request to us at least 30 days before the annuity start date. Living benefit riders automatically terminate when the income phase of your Contract begins. The MGIB annuity benefit may be available if you have purchased the MGIB rider, provided the waiting period and other specified conditions have been met. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal may be available with the ING LifePay Plus or ING Joint LifePay Plus riders. There is no death benefit after the annuity start date.

You may also elect an annuity option on surrender of the Contract for its cash surrender value or you may choose one or more annuity options for the payment of death benefit proceeds while it is in effect and before the annuity start date. If, at the time of the contract owner’s death or the annuitant’s death (if the contract owner is not an individual), no option has been chosen for paying death benefit proceeds, the beneficiary may choose an annuity option. In such a case, the payments will be based on the life expectancy of the beneficiary rather than the life of the annuitant. In all events, payments of death benefit proceeds must comply with the distribution requirements of applicable federal tax law.

The minimum monthly annuity income payment that we will make is $20. We may require that a single sum payment be made if the contract value is less than $2,000 or if the calculated monthly annuity income payment is less than $20.

For each annuity option we will issue a separate written agreement putting the annuity option into effect. Before we pay any annuity benefits, we require the return of your Contract. If your Contract has been lost, we will require that you complete and return the applicable lost Contract form. Various factors will affect the level of annuity benefits, such as the annuity option chosen, the applicable payment rate used and the investment performance of the portfolios and interest credited to the Fixed Interest Allocations.

Our current annuity options provide only for fixed payments. Fixed annuity payments are regular payments, the amount of which is fixed and guaranteed by us. Payments under our current annuity options will last either for a specified period of time or for the life of the annuitant, or both – depending on the option. We will determine the amount of the annuity payments on the annuity start date by multiplying the contract value (adjusted for any market value adjustment and any rider charges that would be due) by the applicable payment factor provided under the Contract and dividing by 1,000. The applicable payment factor will depend on: the annuity option; payment date; the frequency of payments you choose; and the age of the annuitant or beneficiary (and gender, where appropriate under applicable law). Surrender charges might apply depending on the annuity options. Because our current annuity options provide only for fixed payments, subsequent payments will not differ from the amount of your first annuity payment.

Our approval is needed for any option where:

1)      The person named to receive payment is other than the contract owner or beneficiary;
2)      The person named is not a natural person, such as a corporation; or
3)      Any income payment would be less than the minimum annuity income payment allowed.

Selecting the Annuity Start Date

<R>

You select the annuity start date, which is the date on which the annuity payments commence. Unless we consent, the annuity start date must be at least 5 years from the contract date but before the month immediately following the annuitant’s 90th birthday . If, on the annuity start date, a surrender charge remains, the elected annuity option must include a period certain of at least 5 years.

ESII - 152940

</R>

64


<R>

If you do not select an annuity start date, it will automatically begin in the month following the annuitant’s 90th birthday .

</R>

If the annuity start date occurs when the annuitant is at an advanced age, such as over age 85, it is possible that the Contract will not be considered an annuity for federal tax purposes. For more information, see “Federal Tax Considerations” and the SAI. For a Contract purchased in connection with a qualified plan, other than a Roth IRA, distributions must commence not later than April 1st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which you reach age 70½ or, in some cases, retire. Distributions may be made through annuitization or withdrawals. You should consult a tax adviser for tax advice before investing.

Frequency of Annuity Payments

You choose the frequency of the annuity payments. They may be monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually. If we do not receive written notice from you, we will make the payments monthly. There may be certain restrictions on minimum payments that we will allow.

Beneficiary Rights

A beneficiary’s right to elect an annuity option or receive a lump sum may have been restricted by the contract owner. If so, such options will not be available to the beneficiary.

The Annuity Options

The Contract has 4 annuity options. Payments under Options 1, 2 and 3 are fixed. Payments under Option 4 may be fixed or variable, although only fixed payments are currently available. For a fixed annuity option, the contract value in the subaccounts is transferred to the Company’s general account. If you do not choose an annuity option, Option 2 – Income for Life with a 10-year period certain will be selected for you, or a shorter period if required by government regulations.

     Option 1. Income for a Fixed Period. Under this option, we make monthly payments in equal installments for a fixed number of years based on the contract value on the annuity start date. We guarantee that each monthly payment will be at least the amount stated in your Contract. If you prefer, you may request that payments be made in annual, semi-annual or quarterly installments. We will provide you with illustrations if you ask for them. If the cash surrender value or contract value is applied under this option, a 10% penalty tax may apply to the taxable portion of each income payment until the contract owner reaches age 59½.

     Option 2. Income for Life with a Period Certain. Under this option, we make payments for the life of the annuitant in equal monthly installments and guarantee the income for at least a period certain, such as 10 or 20 years. Other periods certain may be available to you on request. You may choose a refund period instead. Under this arrangement, income is guaranteed until payments equal the amount of your Contract. If the person named lives beyond the guaranteed period, we will continue payments until his or her death. We guarantee that each payment will be at least the amount specified in the Contract corresponding to the person’s age on his or her last birthday before the annuity start date. Amounts for ages not shown in the Contract are available if you ask for them.

     Option 3. Joint Life Income. This option is available when there are 2 persons named to determine annuity payments. At least one of the persons named must be either the contract owner or beneficiary of the Contract. We guarantee monthly payments will be made as long as at least one of the named persons is living. There is no minimum number of payments. Monthly payment amounts are available upon request.

     Option 4. Annuity Plan. Under this option, your contract value can be applied to any other annuitization plan that we choose to offer on the annuity start date. Annuity payments under Option 4 may be fixed or variable. If variable and subject to the 1940 Act, it will comply with the requirements of such Act.

Payment When Named Person Dies

When the person named to receive payment dies, we will pay any amounts still due as provided in the annuity agreement between you and ING USA. The amounts we will pay are determined as follows:

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

65


1)      For Option 1, or any remaining guaranteed payments under Option 2, we will continue payments. Under Options 1 and 2, the discounted values of the remaining guaranteed payments may be paid in a single sum. This means we deduct the amount of the interest each remaining guaranteed payment would have earned had it not been paid out early. We will base the discount interest rate on the interest rate used to calculate the payments for Options 1 and 2.
2)      For Option 3, no amounts are payable after both named persons have died.
3)      For Option 4, the annuity option agreement will state the amount we will pay, if any.

OTHER CONTRACT PROVISIONS

Reports to Contract Owners

<R>

We confirm purchase, transfer and withdrawal transactions usually within 5 business days of processing. We may also send you a quarterly report within 31 days after the end of each calendar quarter. The report will show the contract value, cash surrender value, and the death benefit as of the end of the calendar quarter. The report will also show the allocation of your contract value and reflect the amounts deducted from or added to the contract value . You have 30 days to notify our Customer Service Center of any errors or discrepancies . We will notify you when any shareholder reports of the investment portfolios in which Separate Account B invests are available. We will also send any other reports, notices or documents we are required by law to furnish to you.

</R>

Suspension of Payments

The Company reserves the right to suspend or postpone the date of any payment or determination of values, beyond the 7 permitted days, on any business day (i) when the New York Stock Exchange is closed; (ii) when trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted; (iii) when an emergency exists as determined by the SEC so that the sale of securities held in Separate Account B may not reasonably occur or so that the Company may not reasonably determine the value of Separate Account B’s net assets; or (iv) during any other period when the SEC so permits for the protection of security holders. We have the right to delay payment of amounts from a Fixed Interest Allocation for up to 6 months.

In Case of Errors in Your Application

If an age or gender given in the application or enrollment form is misstated, the amounts payable or benefits provided by the Contract shall be those that the premium payment would have bought had the age or gender not been misstated.

Assigning the Contract as Collateral

You may assign a non-qualified Contract as collateral security for a loan but you should understand that your rights and any beneficiary’s rights may be subject to the terms of the assignment. An assignment likely has federal tax consequences. You should consult a tax adviser for tax advice. You must give us satisfactory written notice at our Customer Service Center in order to make or release an assignment. We are not responsible for the validity of any assignment.

Contract Changes — Applicable Tax Law

We have the right to make changes in the Contract to continue to qualify the Contract as an annuity under applicable federal tax law. We will give you advance notice of such changes.

Free Look

You may cancel your Contract within your 10-day free look period. We deem the free look period to expire 15 days after we mail the Contract to you. Some states may require a longer free look period. To cancel, you need to send your Contract to our Customer Service Center or to the agent from whom you purchased it. We will refund the greater of the contract value (which may be more or less than the premium payments you paid) or, if required by your state, the original amount of your premium payment. In no event does the Company retain any investment gain associated with a Contract that is free looked. For purposes of the refund during the free look period, (i) we adjust

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

66


your contract value for any market value adjustment (if you have invested in the Fixed Account), and (ii) then we include a refund of any charges deducted from your contract value. Because of the market risks associated with investing in the portfolios and the potential positive or negative effect of the market value adjustment, the contract value returned may be greater or less than the premium payment you paid. Some states require us to return to you the amount of the paid premium (rather than the contract value) in which case you will not be subject to investment risk during the free look period. In these states, your premiums designated for investment in the subaccounts will be allocated during the free look period to a subaccount specially designated by the Company for this purpose (currently, the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio). We may, in our discretion, require that premiums designated for investment in the subaccounts from all other states as well as premiums designated for a Fixed Interest Allocation be allocated to the specially designated subaccount during the free look period. Your free look rights depend on the laws of the state in which you purchase the Contract. Your Contract is void as of the day we receive your Contract and cancellation request in good order. We determine your contract value at the close of business on the day we void your Contract. If you keep your Contract after the free look period and the investment is allocated to a subaccount specially designated by the Company, we will put your money in the subaccount(s) chosen by you, based on the accumulation unit value next computed for each subaccount, and/or in the Fixed Interest Allocation chosen by you.

Directed Services LLC pays selling firms compensation for the promotion and sale of the Contracts. Registered representatives of the selling firms who solicit sales of the Contracts typically receive a portion of the compensation paid by Directed Services LLC to the selling firm in the form of commissions or other compensation, depending on the agreement between the selling firm and the registered representative. This compensation, as well as other incentives or payments, is not paid directly by contract owners or the Separate Account. We intend to recoup this compensation and other sales expenses paid to selling firms through fees and charges imposed under the Contracts.

Directed Services LLC pays selling firms for Contract sales according to one or more schedules. This compensation is generally based on a percentage of premium payments. Selling firms may receive commissions of up to 9.0% of premium payments. In addition, selling firms may receive ongoing annual compensation of up to 1.25% of all, or a portion, of values of Contracts sold through the firm. Individual representatives may receive all or a portion of compensation paid to their selling firm, depending on the firm’s practices. Commissions and annual compensation, when combined, could exceed 9.0% of total premium payments.

Directed Services LLC has special compensation arrangements with certain selling firms based on those firms’ aggregate or anticipated sales of the Contracts or other criteria. These special compensation arrangements will not be offered to all selling firms, and the terms of such arrangements may differ among selling firms based on various factors. Any such compensation payable to a selling firm will not result in any additional direct charge to you by us.

In addition to the direct cash compensation for sales of Contracts described above, Directed Services LLC may also pay selling firms additional compensation or reimbursement of expenses for their efforts in selling the Contracts to you and other customers. These amounts may include:

  • Marketing/distribution allowances which may be based on the percentages of premium received, the aggregate commissions paid and/or the aggregate assets held in relation to certain types of designated insurance products issued by the Company and/or its affiliates during the year;
  • Loans or advances of commissions in anticipation of future receipt of premiums (a form of lending to agents/registered representatives). These loans may have advantageous terms such as reduction or elimination of the interest charged on the loan and/or forgiveness of the principal amount of the loan, which terms may be conditioned on fixed insurance product sales;
  • Education and training allowances to facilitate our attendance at certain educational and training meetings to provide information and training about our products. We also hold training programs from time to time at our expense;
  • Sponsorship payments or reimbursements for broker/dealers to use in sales contests and/or meetings for their agents/registered representatives who sell our products. We do not hold contests based solely on the sales of this product;
  • Certain overrides and other benefits that may include cash compensation based on the amount of earned commissions, agent/representative recruiting or other activities that promote the sale of contracts; and
  • Additional cash or noncash compensation and reimbursements permissible under existing law. This may include, but is not limited to, cash incentives, merchandise, trips, occasional entertainment, meals and tickets to sporting events, client appreciation events, business and educational enhancement items, payment for travel expenses (including meals and lodging) to pre-approved training and education seminars, and payment for advertising and sales campaigns.

We may pay commissions, dealer concessions, wholesaling fees, overrides, bonuses, other allowances and benefits and the costs of all other incentives or training programs from our resources, which include the fees and charges imposed under the Contract.

Directed Services LLC may also compensate wholesalers/distributors, and their sales management personnel, for Contract sales within the wholesale/distribution channel. This compensation may be based on a percentage of premium payments and/or a percentage of Contract values. Directed Services LLC may, at its discretion, pay additional cash compensation to wholesalers/distributors for sales by certain broker-dealers or “focus firms.”

We do not pay any additional compensation on the sale or exercise of any of the Contract’s optional benefit riders offered in this prospectus.

This is a general discussion of the types and levels of compensation paid by us for sale of our variable annuity contracts. It is important for you to know that the payment of volume- or sales-based compensation to a selling firm or registered representative may provide that registered representative a financial incentive to promote our contracts over those of another company, and may also provide a financial incentive to promote one of our contracts over another.

OTHER INFORMATION

Voting Rights

We will vote the shares of a Trust owned by Separate Account B according to your instructions. However, if the 1940 Act or any related regulations should change, or if interpretations of it or related regulations should change, and we decide that we are permitted to vote the shares of a Trust in our own right, we may decide to do so.

We determine the number of shares that you have in a subaccount by dividing the Contract’s contract value in that subaccount by the net asset value of one share of the portfolio in which a subaccount invests. We count fractional votes. We will determine the number of shares you can instruct us to vote 180 days or less before a Trust shareholder meeting. We will ask you for voting instructions by mail at least 10 days before the meeting. If we do not receive your instructions in time, we will vote the shares in the same proportion as the instructions received from all contracts in that subaccount. We will also vote shares we hold in Separate Account B which are not attributable to contract owners in the same proportion. The effect of proportional voting is that a small number of contract owners may decide the outcome of a vote.

State Regulation

We are regulated by the Insurance Department of the State of Iowa. We are also subject to the insurance laws and regulations of all jurisdictions where we do business. The Contract offered by this prospectus has been approved where required by those jurisdictions. We are required to submit annual statements of our operations, including

financial statements, to the Insurance Departments of the various jurisdictions in which we do business to determine solvency and compliance with state insurance laws and regulations.

Legal Proceedings

We are not aware of any pending legal proceedings which involve Separate Account B as a party.

The Company is involved in threatened or pending lawsuits/arbitrations arising from the normal conduct of business. Due to the climate in insurance and business litigation/arbitration, suits against the Company sometimes include claims for substantial compensatory, consequential or punitive damages and other types of relief. Moreover, certain claims are asserted as class actions, purporting to represent a group of similarly situated individuals. While it is not possible to forecast the outcome of such lawsuits/arbitrations, in light of existing insurance, reinsurance and established reserves, it is the opinion of management that the disposition of such lawsuits/arbitrations will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s operations or financial position.

Directed Services LLC, the principal underwriter and distributor of the contract, is a party to threatened or pending lawsuits/arbitration that generally arise from the normal conduct of business. Some of these suits may seek class action status and sometimes include claims for substantial compensatory, consequential or punitive damages and other types of relief. Directed Services LLC is not involved in any legal proceeding which, in the opinion of management, is likely to have a material adverse effect on its ability to distribute the contract.

FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS

<R>

Introduction

This section discusses our understanding of current federal income tax laws affecting the contract. Federal income tax treatment of the contract is complex and sometimes uncertain. You should keep the following in mind when reading it:

Your tax position (or the tax position of the designated beneficiary, as applicable) determines federal taxation of amounts held or paid out under the contract; Tax laws change. It is possible that a change in the future could affect contracts issued in the past; This section addresses some but not all applicable federal income tax rules and does not discuss federal estate and gift tax implications, state and local taxes, or any other tax provisions; and We do not make any guarantee about the tax treatment of the contract or transactions involving the contract.

We do not intend this information to be tax advice. For advice about the effect of federal income taxes or any other taxes on amounts held or paid out under the contract, consult a tax adviser. For more comprehensive information, contact the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

Types of Contracts: Non-Qualified or Qualified

The Contract may be purchased on a non-tax-qualified basis (non-qualified contracts) or purchased on a tax-qualified basis (qualified contracts).

Non-qualified contracts are purchased with after tax contributions and are not related to retirement plans that receive special income tax treatment under the Tax Code.

Qualified Contracts are designed for use by individuals whose premium payments are comprised solely of proceeds from and/or contributions under retirement plans that are intended to qualify for special income tax treatment under Sections 401, 408 or 408A, and some provisions of 403 and 457 of the Tax Code.

Effective January 1, 2009, except in the case of a rollover contribution as permitted under the Tax Code or as a result of an intra-plan exchange or plan-to-plan transfer described under the Final Regulations, contributions to a section 403(b) tax sheltered annuity contract may only be made by the Employer sponsoring the Plan under which the assets in your contract are covered subject to the applicable Treasury Regulations and only if the Company, in its sole discretion, agrees to be an approved provider.

Taxation of Non-Qualified Contracts

Contributions

You may not deduct the amount of your contributions to a non-qualified contract.

Taxation of Gains Prior to Distribution

     Tax Code Section 72 governs taxation of annuities in general. We believe that if you are a natural person you will generally not be taxed on increases in the value of a non-qualified Contract until a distribution occurs or until annuity payments begin. This assumes that the Contract will qualify as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes. For these purposes, the agreement to assign or pledge any portion of the contract value generally will be treated as a distribution. In order to be eligible to receive deferral of taxation, the following requirements must be satisfied:

     Diversification. Tax Code Section 817(h) requires that in a nonqualified contract the investments of the funds be “adequately diversified” in accordance with Treasury Regulations in order for the Contract to qualify as an annuity contract under federal tax law. The separate account, through the funds, intends to comply with the diversification requirements prescribed by Tax Code Section 817(h) and by the Treasury in Reg. Sec. 1.817-5, which affects how the funds’ assets may be invested. If it is determined, however, that your Contract does not satisfy the applicable diversification requirements and rulings because a subaccount’s corresponding fund fails to be adequately diversified for whatever reason, we will take appropriate steps to bring your Contract into compliance with such regulations and rulings, and we reserve the right to modify your Contract as necessary to do so.

     Investor Control. Although earnings under non-qualified contracts are generally not taxed until withdrawn, the IRS has stated in published rulings that a variable contract owner will be considered the owner of separate account assets if the contract owner possesses incidents of investment control over the assets. In these circumstances, income and gains from the separate account assets would be currently includible in the variable contract owner’s gross income. Future guidance regarding the extent to which owners could direct their investments among subaccounts without being treated as owners of the underlying assets of the separate account may adversely affect the tax treatment of existing contracts. The Company therefore reserves the right to modify the contract as necessary to attempt to prevent the contract holder from being considered the federal tax owner of a pro rata share of the assets of the separate account.

     Required Distributions. In order to be treated as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes, the Tax Code requires any non-qualified Contract to contain certain provisions specifying how your interest in the Contract will be distributed in the event of your death. The non-qualified Contracts contain provisions that are intended to comply with these Tax Code requirements, although no regulations interpreting these requirements have yet been issued. When such requirements are clarified by regulation or otherwise, we intend to review such distribution provisions and modify them if necessary to assure that they comply with the applicable requirements.

     Non-Natural Holders of a Non-Qualified Contract. If you are not a natural person, a non-qualified contract generally is not treated as an annuity for income tax purposes and the income on the contract for the taxable year is currently taxable as ordinary income. Income on the contract is any increase in the contract value over the “investment in the contract” (generally, the premiums or other consideration you paid for the contract less any nontaxable withdrawals) during the taxable year. There are some exceptions to this rule and a non-natural person should consult with its tax adviser prior to purchasing the Contract. When the contract owner is not a natural person, a change in the annuitant is treated as the death of the contract owner.

     Delayed Annuity Starting Date. If the Contract’s annuity starting date occurs (or is scheduled to occur) at a time when the annuitant has reached an advanced age (e.g., after age 85), it is possible that the Contract would not be treated as an annuity for federal income tax purposes. In that event, the income and gains under the Contract could be currently includible in your income.

ESII - 152940

<R>

Taxation of Distributions

     General. When a withdrawal from a non-qualified Contract occurs, the amount received will be treated as ordinary income subject to tax up to an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the contract value (unreduced by the amount of any surrender charge) immediately before the distribution over the contract owner’s investment in the contract at that time. Investment in the contract is generally equal to the amount of all contributions to the contract, plus amounts previously included in your gross income as the result of certain loans, assignments or gifts, less the aggregate amount of non-taxable distributions previously made.

In the case of a surrender under a non-qualified Contract, the amount received generally will be taxable only to the extent it exceeds the contract owner’s investment in the contract (cost basis).

     10% Penalty Tax. A distribution from a non-qualified Contract may be subject to a federal tax penalty equal to 10% of the amount treated as income. In general, however, there is no penalty on distributions:

made on or after the taxpayer reaches age 59½; made on or after the death of a contract owner (the annuitant if the contract owner is a non-natural person); attributable to the taxpayer’s becoming disabled as defined in the Tax Code; made as part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least annually) over your life or life expectancy or the joint lives or joint life expectancies of you and your designated beneficiary; or the distribution is allocable to investment in the contract before August 14, 1982.

The 10% penalty does not apply to distributions from an immediate annuity as defined in the Tax Code. Other exceptions may be applicable under certain circumstances and special rules may be applicable in connection with the exceptions enumerated above. A tax adviser should be consulted with regard to exceptions from the penalty tax.

     Tax-Free Exchanges. Section 1035 of the Tax Code permits the exchange of a life insurance, endowment or annuity contract for an annuity contract on a tax-free basis. In such instance, the “investment in the contract” in the old contract will carry over to the new contract. You should consult with your tax advisor regarding procedures for making Section 1035 exchanges.

If your Contract is purchased through a tax-free exchange of a life insurance, endowment or annuity contract that was purchased prior to August 14, 1982, then any distributions other than annuity payments will be treated, for tax purposes, as coming:

First, from any remaining “investment in the contract” made prior to August 14, 1982 and exchanged into the Contract; Next, from any “income on the contract” attributable to the investment made prior to August 14, 1982; Then, from any remaining “income on the contract;” and Lastly, from any remaining “investment in the contract.”

The IRS has concluded that in certain instances, the partial exchange of a portion of one annuity contract for another contract will be tax-free. Pursuant to IRS guidance, receipt of withdrawals, surrenders or annuity payments (annuitizations) from either the original contract or the new contract during the 12 month period following the partial exchange may retroactively negate the partial exchange. If the partial exchange is retroactively negated, the partial surrender of the original contract will be treated as a withdrawal, taxable as ordinary income to the extent of gain in the original contract and, if the partial exchange occurred prior to you reaching age 59 1/2 , may be subject to an additional 10% tax penalty. A taxable event may be avoided if requirements identified as a qualifying event are satisfied. We are not responsible for the manner in which any other insurance company, for tax reporting purposes, or the IRS, with respect to the ultimate tax treatment, recognizes or reports a partial exchange. We strongly advise you to discuss any proposed 1035 exchange or subsequent distribution within 12 months with your tax advisor prior to proceeding with the transaction.

     Taxation of Annuity Payments. Although tax consequences may vary depending on the payment option elected under an annuity contract, a portion of each annuity payment is generally not taxed and the remainder is

ESII - 152940

</R>

72


<R>

taxed as ordinary income. The non-taxable portion of an annuity payment is generally determined in a manner that is designed to allow you to recover your investment in the contract ratably on a tax-free basis over the expected stream of annuity payments, as determined when annuity payments start. Once your investment in the contract has been fully recovered, however, the full amount of each subsequent annuity payment is subject to tax as ordinary income.

The tax treatment of partial annuitizations is unclear. We currently treat any partial annuitizations as withdrawals rather than as annuity payments. Please consult your tax adviser before electing a partial annuitization.

     Death Benefits. Amounts may be distributed from a Contract because of your death or the death of the annuitant. Generally, such amounts are includible in the income of the recipient as follows: (i) if distributed in a lump sum, they are taxed in the same manner as a surrender of the Contract, or (ii) if distributed under a payment option, they are taxed in the same way as annuity payments. Special rules may apply to amounts distributed after a Beneficiary has elected to maintain Contract value and receive payments.

Different distribution requirements apply if your death occurs:

After you begin receiving annuity payments under the Contract; or Before you begin receiving such distributions.

If your death occurs after you begin receiving annuity payments, distributions must be made at least as rapidly as under the method in effect at the time of your death.

If your death occurs before you begin receiving annuity payments, your entire balance must be distributed within five years after the date of your death. For example, if you died on September 1, 2008, your entire balance must be distributed by August 31, 2013. However, if distributions begin within one year of your death, then payments may be made over one of the following timeframes:

Over the life of the designated beneficiary; or

Over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the designated beneficiary.

If the designated beneficiary is your spouse, the contract may be continued with the surviving spouse as the new contract owner. If the contract owner is a non-natural person and the primary annuitant dies, the same rules apply on the death of the primary annuitant as outlined above for the death of a contract owner.

The Contract offers a death benefit that may exceed the greater of the premium payments and the contract value. Certain charges are imposed with respect to the death benefit. It is possible that these charges (or some portion thereof) could be treated for federal tax purposes as a distribution from the Contract.

     Assignments and Other Transfers. A transfer, pledge or assignment of ownership of a non-qualified contract, the selection of certain annuity dates, or the designation of an annuitant or payee other than an owner may result in certain tax consequences to you that are not discussed herein. The assignment, pledge or agreement to assign or pledge any portion of the contract value generally will be treated as a distribution. Anyone contemplating any such transfer, pledge, assignment, or designation or exchange, should consult a tax adviser regarding the potential tax effects of such a transaction.

     Immediate Annuities. Under Section 72 of the Tax Code, an immediate annuity means an annuity (1) which is purchased with a single premium, (2) with annuity payments starting within one year from the date of purchase, and (3) which provides a series of substantially equal periodic payments made annually or more frequently. While this Contract is not designed as an immediate annuity, treatment as an immediate annuity would have significance with respect to exceptions from the 10% early withdrawal penalty, to contracts owned by non-natural persons, and for certain exchanges.

ESII - 152940

</R>

73


<R>

     Multiple Contracts. Tax laws require that all non-qualified deferred annuity contracts that are issued by a company or its affiliates to the same contract owner during any calendar year be treated as one annuity contract for purposes of determining the amount includible in gross income under Tax Code Section 72(e). In addition, the Treasury Department has specific authority to issue regulations that prevent the avoidance of Tax Code Section 72(e) through the serial purchase of annuity contracts or otherwise.

     Withholding. We will withhold and remit to the IRS a part of the taxable portion of each distribution made under a Contract unless the distributee notifies us at or before the time of the distribution that he or she elects not to have any amounts withheld. Withholding is mandatory, however, if the distributee fails to provide a valid taxpayer identification number or if we are notified by the IRS that the taxpayer identification number we have on file is incorrect. The withholding rates applicable to the taxable portion of periodic annuity payments are the same as the withholding rates generally applicable to payments of wages. In addition, a 10% withholding rate applies to the taxable portion of non-periodic payments. Regardless of whether you elect to have federal income tax withheld, you are still liable for payment of federal income tax on the taxable portion of the payment.

Certain states have indicated that state income tax withholding will also apply to payments from the contracts made to residents. Generally, an election out of federal withholding will also be considered an election out of state withholding. In some states, you may elect out of state withholding, even if federal withholding applies. If you need more information concerning a particular state or any required forms, please contact our Customer Service Center.

If you or your designated beneficiary is a non-resident alien, then any withholding is governed by Tax Code Section 1441 based on the individual’s citizenship, the country of domicile and treaty status, and we may require additional documentation prior to processing any requested transaction.

Taxation of Qualified Contracts

General

     The Contracts are primarily designed for use with IRAs under Tax Code Sections 401, 408 or 408A, and some provisions of 403 and 457 (We refer to all of these as “qualified plans”). The tax rules applicable to participants in these qualified plans vary according to the type of plan and the terms and conditions of the plan itself. The ultimate effect of federal income taxes on the amounts held under a Contract, or on annuity payments, depends on the type of retirement plan and your tax status. Special favorable tax treatment may be available for certain types of contributions and distributions. In addition, certain requirements must be satisfied in purchasing a qualified contract with proceeds from a tax-qualified plan in order to continue receiving favorable tax treatment.

Adverse tax consequences may result from: contributions in excess of specified limits; distributions before age 59½ (subject to certain exceptions); distributions that do not conform to specified commencement and minimum distribution rules; and in other specified circumstances. Some qualified plans may be subject to additional distribution or other requirements that are not incorporated into the Contract. No attempt is made to provide more than general information about the use of the Contracts with qualified plans. Contract owners, annuitants, and beneficiaries are cautioned that the rights of any person to any benefits under these qualified plans may be subject to the terms and conditions of the plans themselves, regardless of the terms and conditions of the Contract. The Company is not bound by the terms and conditions of such plans to the extent such terms contradict the Contract, unless we consent.

Contract owners and beneficiaries generally are responsible for determining that contributions, distributions and other transactions with respect to the contract comply with applicable law. Therefore, you should seek competent legal and tax advice regarding the suitability of a contract for your particular situation. The following discussion assumes that qualified contracts are purchased with proceeds from and/or contributions under retirement plans or programs that qualify for the intended special federal tax treatment.

Tax Deferral

     Under the federal tax laws, earnings on amounts held in annuity contracts are generally not taxed until they are withdrawn. However, in the case of a qualified plan (as defined in this prospectus), an annuity contract is not necessary to obtain this favorable tax treatment and does not provide any tax benefits beyond the deferral already

ESII - 152940

</R>

74


<R>

available to the qualified plan itself. Annuities do provide other features and benefits (such as guaranteed living benefits and/or death benefits or the option of lifetime income phase options at established rates) that may be valuable to you. You should discuss your alternatives with your financial representative taking into account the additional fees and expenses you may incur in an annuity.

     Section 401(a), 401(k), Roth 401(k), and 403(a) Plans. Sections 401(a), 401(k), and 403(a) of the Tax Code permit certain employers to establish various types of retirement plans for employees, and permits self-employed individuals to establish these plans for themselves and their employees. These retirement plans may permit the purchase of Contracts to accumulate retirement savings under the plans. Employers intending to use the Contract with such plans should seek competent legal advice.

The contracts may also be available as a Roth 401(k), as described in Tax Code Section 402A, and we may set up accounts for you under the Contract for Roth 401(k) contributions (“Roth 401(k) accounts”). Tax Code Section 402A allows employees of certain private employers to contribute after-tax salary contributions to a Roth 401(k), which provides for tax-free distributions, subject to certain restrictions.

     Individual Retirement Annuities. Section 408 of the Tax Code permits eligible individuals to contribute to an individual retirement program known as an Individual Retirement Annuity (“IRA”). IRAs are subject to limits on the amounts that can be contributed, the deductible amount of the contribution, the persons who may be eligible, and the time when distributions commence. Contributions to IRAs must be made in cash or as a rollover or a transfer from another eligible plan. Also, distributions from IRAs, individual retirement accounts, and other types of retirement plans may be “rolled over” on a tax-deferred basis into an IRA. If you make a tax-free rollover of a distribution from an IRA you may not make another tax-free rollover from the IRA within a 1-year period. Sales of the contract for use with IRAs may be subject to special requirements of the IRS.

The IRS has not reviewed the contracts described in this prospectus for qualification as IRAs and has not addressed, in a ruling of general applicability, whether the contract’s death benefit provisions comply with IRS qualification requirements.

     Roth IRAs. Section 408A of the Tax Code permits certain eligible individuals to contribute to a Roth IRA. Contributions to a Roth IRA are subject to limits on the amount of contributions and the persons who may be eligible to contribute, are not deductible, and must be made in cash or as a rollover or transfer from another Roth IRA or other IRA. Certain qualifying individuals may convert an IRA, SEP, or a SIMPLE to a Roth IRA. Such rollovers and conversions are subject to tax, and other special rules may apply. If you make a tax-free rollover of a distribution from a Roth IRA to another Roth IRA, you may not make another tax-free rollover from the Roth IRA within a 1-year period. A 10% penalty may apply to amounts attributable to a conversion to a Roth IRA if the amounts are distributed during the five taxable years beginning with the year in which the conversion was made.

Sales of a contract for use with a Roth IRA may be subject to special requirements of the IRS. The IRS has not reviewed the contracts described in this prospectus for qualification as IRAs and has not addressed, in a ruling of general applicability, whether the contract’s death benefit provisions comply with IRS qualification requirements.

     Section 403(b) Tax-Sheltered Annuities. The contracts are no longer available for purchase as Tax Code section 403(b) tax-sheltered annuities. Existing contracts issued as Tax Code section 403(b) tax-sheltered annuities will continue to be maintained as such under the applicable rules and regulations.

The Treasury Department has issued regulations which generally take effect on January 1, 2009. Existing contracts will be modified as necessary to comply with these regulations where allowed, or where required by law in order to maintain their status as section 403(b) tax-sheltered annuities. The final regulations include: (a) the ability to terminate a 403(b) plan, which would entitle a participant to a distribution; (b) the revocation of IRS Revenue Ruling 90-24, and the resulting increase in restrictions on a participant’s right to transfer his or her 403(b) accounts; and (3) the imposition of withdrawal restrictions on non-salary reduction contribution amounts, as well as other changes.

certain qualified plans are limited by the Tax Code. You should consult with your tax adviser in connection with contributions to a qualified contract.

Distributions – General

     Certain tax rules apply to distributions from the Contract. A distribution is any amount taken from a Contract including withdrawals, annuity payments, rollovers, exchanges and death benefit proceeds. We report the taxable portion of all distributions to the IRS.

     Section 401(a), 401(k) and 403(a) Plans. Distributions from these plans are taxed as received unless one of the following is true:

The distribution is an eligible rollover distribution and is rolled over to another plan eligible to receive rollovers or to a traditional IRA in accordance with the Tax Code; You made after-tax contributions to the plan. In this case, depending upon the type of distribution, the amount will be taxed according to the rules detailed in the Tax Code; or The distribution is a qualified health insurance premium of a retired safety officer as defined in the Pension Protection Act of 2006.

A payment is an eligible rollover distribution unless it is:

part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least one per year) made over the life expectancy of the participant or the joint life expectancy of the participant and his designated beneficiary or for a specified period of 10 years or more; a required minimum distribution under Tax Code Section 401(a)(9); a hardship withdrawal; otherwise excludable from income; or Not recognized under applicable regulations as eligible for rollover.

The Tax Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distribution from a Contract used with a 401(a), 401(k) or 403(a) plan unless certain exceptions, including one or more of the following, have occurred:

You have attained age 59½;

You have become disabled, as defined in the Tax Code; You have died and the distribution is to your beneficiary;

You have separated from service with the sponsor at or after age 55;

The distribution amount is rolled over into another eligible retirement plan or to an IRA in accordance with the terms of the Tax Code; You have separated from service with the plan sponsor and the distribution amount is made in substantially equal periodic payments (at least annually) over your life or the life expectancy or the joint lives or joint life expectancies of you and your designated beneficiary; The distribution is made due to an IRS levy upon your plan; The withdrawal amount is paid to an alternate payee under a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO); or The distribution is a qualified reservist distribution as defined under the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (401(k) plans only).

In addition, the 10% penalty tax does not apply to the amount of a distribution equal to unreimbursed medical expenses incurred by you during the taxable year that qualify for deduction as specified in the Tax Code. The Tax Code may provide other exceptions or impose other penalties in other circumstances.

     Individual Retirement Annuities. All distributions from an IRA are taxed as received unless either one of the following is true:

The distribution is rolled over to another IRA or to a plan eligible to receive rollovers as permitted under the Tax Code; or

ESII - 152940

</R>

76


<R>

You made after-tax contributions to the IRA. In this case, the distribution will be taxed according to rules detailed in the Tax Code.

The Tax Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distribution from an IRA unless certain exceptions, including one or more of the following, have occurred:

You have attained age 59½;

You have become disabled, as defined in the Tax Code; You have died and the distribution is to your beneficiary;

The distribution amount is rolled over into another eligible retirement plan or to an IRA in accordance with the terms of the Tax Code; The distribution is made due to an IRS levy upon your plan; The withdrawal amount is paid to an alternate payee under a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO); or The distribution is a qualified reservist distribution as defined under the Pension Protection Act of 2006.

In addition, the 10% penalty tax does not apply to a distribution made from an IRA to pay for health insurance premiums for certain unemployed individuals, a qualified first-time home purchase, or for higher education expenses.

     Roth IRAs. A qualified distribution from a Roth IRA is not taxed when it is received. A qualified distribution is a distribution:

Made after the five-taxable year period beginning with the first taxable year for which a contribution was made to a Roth IRA of the owner; and Made after you attain age 59½, die, become disabled as defined in the Tax Code, or for a qualified first-time home purchase.

If a distribution is not qualified, generally it will be taxable to the extent of the accumulated earnings. A partial distribution will first be treated as a return of contributions which is not taxable and then as taxable accumulated earnings.

The Tax Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distribution from a Roth IRA that is not a qualified distribution unless certain exceptions have occurred. In general, the exceptions for an IRA listed above also apply to a distribution from a Roth IRA that is not a qualified distribution or a rollover to a Roth IRA that is not a qualified rollover contribution. The 10% penalty tax is also waived on a distribution made from a Roth IRA to pay for health insurance premiums for certain unemployed individuals, used for a qualified first-time home purchase, or for higher education expenses.

     403(b) Plans. Distributions from your contract are subject to the requirements of Code Section 403(b), the Treasury Regulations, and, if applicable, the Plan under which the assets in your contract are covered. In accordance with Code Section 403(b) and the Treasury Regulations, we have no responsibility or obligation to make any distribution (including distributions due to loans, annuity payouts, qualified domestic relations orders, hardship withdrawals and systematic distributions options) from your contract until we have received instructions or information from your Employer and/or its designee or, if permitted under Code Section 403(b) and the Treasury Regulations, you in a form acceptable to us and necessary for us to administer your contract in accordance with Code Section 403(b) the Treasury Regulations, and, if applicable, the Plan.

All distributions from these plans are taxed as received unless one of the following is true:

The distribution is an eligible rollover distribution and is rolled over to another plan eligible to receive rollovers or to a traditional IRA in accordance with the Tax Code; You made after-tax contributions to the plan. In this case, depending upon the type of distribution, the amount will be taxed according to the rules detailed in the Tax Code; or The distribution is a qualified health insurance premium of a retired public safety officer as defined in the Pension Protection Act of 2006.

A payment is an eligible rollover distribution unless it is:

Part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least one per year) made over the life expectancy of the participant or the joint life expectancy of the participant and his designated beneficiary or for a specified period of 10 years or more; A required minimum distribution under Tax Code section 401(a)(9); A hardship withdrawal; Otherwise excludable from income; or Not recognized under applicable regulations as eligible for rollover.

The Tax Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distribution from a contract used with a 403(b) plan, unless certain exceptions have occurred. In general, the exceptions for an IRA listed above also apply to a distribution from a 403(b) plan, plus in the event you have separated from service with the sponsor at or after age 55, or you have separated from service with the plan sponsor and the distribution amount is made in substantially equal periodic payments (at least annually) over your life or the life expectancy or the joint lives or joint life expectancies of you and your designated beneficiary. In addition, the 10% penalty tax does not apply to the amount of a distribution equal to unreimbursed medical expenses incurred by you during the taxable year that qualify for deduction as specified in the Tax Code. The Tax Code may provide other exceptions or impose other penalty taxes in other circumstances.

Distribution of amounts restricted under Tax Code section 403(b)(11) may only occur upon your death, attainment of age 59 1/2, severance from employment, disability or financial hardship. Such distributions remain subject to other applicable restrictions under the Tax Code and the regulations.

     Special Hurricane-Related Relief. The Katrina Emergency Tax Relief Act and the Gulf Opportunity Zone Act provide tax relief to victims of Hurricanes Katrina, Rita and Wilma. The relief includes a waiver of the 10% penalty tax on qualified hurricane distributions from eligible retirement plans. In addition, the 20% mandatory withholding rules do not apply to these distributions and the tax may be spread out ratably over a three-year period. A recipient of a qualified hurricane distribution may also elect to re-contribute all or a portion of the distribution to an eligible retirement plan within three (3) years of receipt without tax consequences. Other relief may also apply. You should consult a competent tax adviser for further information.

     Lifetime Required Minimum Distributions (Sections 401(a), 401(k), Roth 401(k), 403(a), 403(b) and IRAs only).

     To avoid certain tax penalties, you and any designated beneficiary must also meet the minimum distribution requirements imposed by the Tax Code. These rules may dictate the following:

Start date for distributions;

The time period in which all amounts in your account(s) must be distributed; and Distribution amounts.

     Start Date and Time Period. Generally, you must begin receiving distributions by April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which you attain age 70½. We must pay out distributions from the contract over a period not extending beyond one of the following time periods:

Over your life or the joint lives of you and your designated beneficiary; or

Over a period not greater than your life expectancy or the joint life expectancies of you and your designated beneficiary.

     Distribution Amounts. The amount of each required distribution must be calculated in accordance with Tax Code Section 401(a)(9). The entire interest in the account includes the amount of any outstanding rollover, transfer, recharacterization, if applicable, and the actuarial present value of other benefits provided under the account, such as guaranteed death benefits.

<R>

     50% Excise Tax. If you fail to receive the minimum required distribution for any tax year, a 50% excise tax may be imposed on the required amount that was not distributed.

Lifetime Required Minimum Distributions are not applicable to Roth IRAs during your lifetime. Further information regarding required minimum distributions may be found in your contract.

     Required Distributions Upon Death (Sections 401(a), 401(k), Roth 401(k), 403(a), 403(b), IRAs and Roth IRAs Only). Different distribution requirements apply after your death, depending upon if you have been receiving required minimum distributions. Further information regarding required distributions upon death may be found in your contract.

If your death occurs on or after you begin receiving minimum distributions under the contract, distributions generally must be made at least as rapidly as under the method in effect at the time of your death. Tax Code Section 401(a)(9) provides specific rules for calculating the required minimum distributions after your death.

If your death occurs before you begin receiving minimum distributions under the contract, your entire balance must be distributed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the date of your death. For example, if you died on September 1, 2006, your entire balance must be distributed to the designated beneficiary by December 31, 2011. However, if distributions begin by December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year of your death, and you have named a designated beneficiary, then payments may be made over either of the following time frames:

Over the life of the designated beneficiary; or

Over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the designated beneficiary.

     Start Dates for Spousal Beneficiaries. If the designated beneficiary is your spouse, distributions must begin on or before the later of the following:

December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year of your death; or December 31 of the calendar year in which you would have attained age 70½.

     No designated beneficiary. If there is no designated beneficiary, the entire interest generally must be distributed by the end of the calendar containing the fifth anniversary of the contract owner’s death.

     Special Rule for IRA Spousal Beneficiaries (IRAs and Roth IRAs Only). In lieu of taking a distribution under these rules, if the sole designated beneficiary is the contract owner’s surviving spouse, the spousal beneficiary may elect to treat the contract as his or her own IRA and defer taking a distribution until his or her own start date. The surviving spouse is deemed to have made such an election if the surviving spouse makes a rollover to or from the contract or fails to take a distribution within the required time period.

Withholding

     Any taxable distributions under the contract are generally subject to withholding. Federal income tax liability rates vary according to the type of distribution and the recipient’s tax status.

     401(a), 401(k), Roth 401(k), 403(a) and 403(b). Generally, distributions from these plans are subject to mandatory 20% federal income tax withholding. However, mandatory withholding will not be required if you elect a direct rollover of the distributions to an eligible retirement plan or in the case of certain distributions described in the Tax Code.

     IRAs and Roth IRAs. Generally, you or, if applicable, a designated beneficiary may elect not to have tax withheld from distributions.

     Non-resident Aliens. If you or your designated beneficiary is a non-resident alien, then any withholding is governed by Tax Code section 1441 based on the individual’s citizenship, the country of domicile and treaty status, and we may require additional documentation prior to processing any requested information.

Assignment and Other Transfers

     IRAS and Roth IRAs. The Tax Code does not allow a transfer or assignment of your rights under these contracts except in limited circumstances. Adverse tax consequences may result if you assign or transfer your interest in the contract to persons other than your spouse incident to a divorce. Anyone contemplating such an assignment or transfer should contact a qualified tax adviser regarding the potential tax effects of such a transaction.

     Section 403(b) Plans. Adverse tax consequences to the plan and/or to you may result if your beneficial interest in the contract is assigned or transferred to persons other than:

A plan participant as a means to provide benefit payments;

An alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order in accordance with Tax Code section 414(p); or The Company as collateral for a loan.

Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit

     Living Benefits. Except as otherwise noted below, when a withdrawal from a nonqualified contract occurs under the ING LifePay Plus or ING LifePay Plus rider, the amount received will be treated as ordinary income subject to tax up to an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the contract value (unreduced by the amount of any deferred sales charge) immediately before the distribution over the contract owner’s investment in the contract at that time.

Investment in the contract is generally equal to the amount of all contributions to the contract, plus amounts previously included in your gross income as the result of certain loans, assignments, or gifts, less the aggregate amount of non-taxable distributions previously made. For nonqualified contracts, the income on the contract for purposes of calculating the taxable amount of a distribution may be unclear. For example, the living benefits provided under the ING LifePay Plus or ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, as well as the market value adjustment, could increase the contract value that applies. Thus, the income on the contract could be higher than the amount of income that would be determined without regard to such a benefit. As a result, you could have higher amounts of income than will be reported to you. In addition, payments under any guaranteed payment phase of such riders after the contract value has been reduced to zero may be subject to the exclusion ratio rules under Tax Code Section 72(b) for tax purposes.

Payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal pursuant to the Income Optimizer under the ING LifePay Plus or ING Joint LifePay Plus rider are designed to be treated as annuity payments for withholding and tax reporting purposes. A portion of each annuity payment is generally not taxed and the remainder is taxed as ordinary income. The non-taxable portion of an annuity payment is generally determined in a manner that is designed to allow you to recover your investment in the contract ratably on a tax-free basis over the expected stream of annuity payments, as determined when your payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal pursuant to the Income Optimizer start. Any withdrawals in addition to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal payments you are receiving pursuant to the Income Optimizer constitute Excess Withdrawals under the ING LifePay Plus or ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, causing a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and Maximum Annual Withdrawal. This reduction will result in a proportional reduction in the non-taxable portion of your future Maximum Annual Withdrawal payments. Once your investment in the contract has been fully recovered, the full amount of each of your future Maximum Annual Withdrawal payments would be subject to tax as ordinary income.

The tax treatment of partial annuitizations is unclear. We currently treat any partial annuitization, such as those associated with the minimum guaranteed income benefit as withdrawals rather than annuity payments. Please consult your tax adviser before electing a partial annuitization.

     Enhanced Death Benefits. The Contract offers a death benefit that may exceed the greater of the premium payments and the contract value. It is possible that the IRS could characterize such a death benefit as an incidental death benefit. In addition, the provision of such benefits may result in currently taxable income to contract owners, and the presence of the death benefit could affect the amount of required minimum distributions. Finally, certain

ESII - 152940

<R>

charges are imposed with respect to some of the available death benefits. It is possible those charges (or some portion thereof) could be treated for federal tax purposes as a distribution from the Contract.

Possible Changes in Taxation

Although the likelihood of legislative change and tax reform is uncertain, there is always the possibility that the tax treatment of the Contracts could change by legislation or other means. It is also possible that any change could be retroactive (that is, effective before the date of the change). You should consult a tax adviser with respect to legislative developments and their effect on the Contract.

Taxation of Company

We are taxed as a life insurance company under the Tax Code. The Separate Account is not a separate entity from us. Therefore, it is not taxed separately as a “regulated investment company,” but is taxed as part of the Company.

We automatically apply investment income and capital gains attributable to the separate account to increase reserves under the contracts. Because of this, under existing federal tax law we believe that any such income and gains will not be taxed to the extent that such income and gains are applied to increase reserves under the contracts. In addition, any foreign tax credits attributable to the separate account will be first used to reduce any income taxes imposed on the separate account before being used by the Company.

In summary, we do not expect that we will incur any federal income tax liability attributable to the separate account and we do not intend to make any provision for such taxes. However, changes in federal tax laws and/or their interpretation may result in our being taxed on income or gains attributable to the separate account. In this case, we may impose a charge against the separate account (with respect to some or all of the Contracts) to set aside provisions to pay such taxes. We may deduct this amount from the separate account, including from your account value invested in the subaccounts.

  APPENDIX B

<R>

The Investment Portfolios

During the accumulation phase, you may allocate your premium payments and contract value to any of the investment portfolios available under this Contract. They are listed in this appendix, plus any Fixed Interest Allocation that is available. You bear the entire investment risk for amounts you allocate to any investment portfolio, and you may lose your principal.

</R>

The investment results of the mutual funds (funds) are likely to differ significantly and there is no assurance that any of the funds will achieve their respective investment objectives. You should consider the investment objectives, risks and charges and expenses of the funds carefully before investing. Please refer to the funds prospectuses for this and additional information.

Shares of the funds will rise and fall in value and you could lose money by investing in the funds. Shares of the funds are not bank deposits and are not guaranteed, endorsed or insured by any financial institution, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Except as noted, all funds are diversified, as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Fund prospectuses may be obtained free of charge, from our Customer Service Center at the address and telephone number listed in the prospectus, by accessing the SEC’s web site or by contacting the SEC Public Reference Room.

Certain funds offered under the contracts have investment objectives and policies similar to other funds managed by the fund’s investment adviser. The investment results of a fund may be higher or lower than those of other funds managed by the same adviser. There is no assurance and no representation is made that the investment results of any fund will be comparable to those of another fund managed by the same investment adviser.

Certain funds are designated as “Master-Feeder” or “LifeStyle Funds.” Funds offered in a Master-Feeder structure (such as the American Funds) or fund of funds structure (such as the LifeStyle Funds) may have higher fees and expenses than a fund that invests directly in debt and equity securities.

Consult with your investment professional to determine if the investment portfolios may be suited to your financial needs, investment time horizon and risk tolerance. You should periodically review these factors to determine if you need to change your investment strategy.

  APPENDIX C

Fixed Account II

<R>

Fixed Account II (“Fixed Account”) is an optional fixed interest allocation offered during the accumulation phase of your variable annuity contract between you and ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (“ING USA,” the “Company,” “we” or “our”). The Fixed Account, which is a segregated asset account of ING USA, provides a means for you to invest on a tax-deferred basis and earn a guaranteed interest for guaranteed interest periods (Fixed Interest Allocation(s)). We will credit your Fixed Interest Allocation(s) with a fixed rate of interest. We currently offer Fixed Interest Allocations with guaranteed interest periods that may vary by maturity, state of issue and rate. In addition, we may offer DCA Fixed Interest Allocations, which are 6-month and 1-year Fixed Interest Allocations available exclusively in connection with our dollar cost averaging program. We may offer additional guaranteed interest periods in some or all states, may not offer all guaranteed interest periods on all contracts or in all states and the rates for a given guaranteed interest period may vary among contracts. We set the interest rates periodically.

</R>

We may credit a different interest rate for each interest period. The interest you earn in the Fixed Account as well as your principal is guaranteed by ING USA, as long as you do not take your money out before the maturity date for the applicable interest period. If you take your money out from a Fixed Interest Allocation more than 30 days before the applicable maturity date, we will apply a market value adjustment (“Market Value Adjustment”). A Market Value Adjustment could increase or decrease your contract value and/or the amount you take out. A surrender charge may also apply to withdrawals from your contract. You bear the risk that you may receive less than your principal because of the Market Value Adjustment.

For contracts sold in some states, not all Fixed Interest Allocations are available. You have a right to return a contract for a refund as described in the prospectus.

The Fixed Account

You may allocate premium payments and transfer your Contract value to the guaranteed interest periods of the Fixed Account during the accumulation period as described in the prospectus. Every time you allocate money to the Fixed Account, we set up a Fixed Interest Allocation for the guaranteed interest period you select. We will credit your Fixed Interest Allocation with a guaranteed interest rate for the interest period you select, so long as you do not withdraw money from that Fixed Interest Allocation before the end of the guaranteed interest period. Each guaranteed interest period ends on its maturity date which is the last day of the month in which the interest period is scheduled to expire.

Your Contract value in the Fixed Account is the sum of your Fixed Interest Allocations and the interest credited as adjusted for any withdrawals, transfers or other charges we may impose, including any Market Value Adjustment. Your Fixed Interest Allocation will be credited with the guaranteed interest rate in effect for the guaranteed interest period you selected when we receive and accept your premium or reallocation of Contract value. We will credit interest daily at a rate that yields the quoted guaranteed interest rate.

If you surrender, withdraw, transfer or annuitize your investment in a Fixed Interest Allocation more than 30 days before the end of the guaranteed interest period, we will apply a Market Value Adjustment to the transaction. A Market Value Adjustment could increase or decrease the amount you surrender, withdraw, transfer or annuitize, depending on current interest rates at the time of the transaction. You bear the risk that you may receive less than your principal because of the Market Value Adjustment.

Guaranteed Interest Rates

Each Fixed Interest Allocation will have an interest rate that is guaranteed as long as you do not take your money out until its maturity date. We do not have a specific formula for establishing the guaranteed interest rates for the different guaranteed interest periods. We determine guaranteed interest rates at our sole discretion. We cannot predict the level of future interest rates. For more information see the prospectus for the Fixed Account.

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

C1


Transfers from a Fixed Interest Allocation

You may transfer your Contract value in a Fixed Interest Allocation to one or more new Fixed Interest Allocations with new guaranteed interest periods, or to any of the subaccounts of ING USA’s Separate Account B as described in the prospectus on the maturity date of a guaranteed interest period. The minimum amount that you can transfer to or from any Fixed Interest Allocation is $100. Transfers from a Fixed Interest Allocation may be subject to a Market Value Adjustment. If you have a special Fixed Interest Allocation that was offered exclusively with our dollar cost averaging program, canceling dollar cost averaging will cause a transfer of the entire Contract value in such Fixed Interest Allocation to the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio, and such a transfer will be subject to a Market Value Adjustment.

<R>

Please be aware that the benefit we pay under certain optional benefit riders will be adjusted by any transfers you make to and from the Fixed Interest Allocations during specified periods while the rider is in effect.

</R>

Withdrawals from a Fixed Interest Allocation

During the accumulation phase, you may withdraw a portion of your Contract value in any Fixed Interest Allocation. You may make systematic withdrawals of only the interest earned during the prior month, quarter or year, depending on the frequency chosen, from a Fixed Interest Allocation under our systematic withdrawal option. A withdrawal from a Fixed Interest Allocation may be subject to a Market Value Adjustment and a contract surrender charge. Be aware that withdrawals may have federal income tax consequences, including a 10% penalty tax, as well as state income tax consequences.

<R>

Please be aware that the benefit we pay under any of the optional benefit riders will be reduced by any withdrawals you made from the Fixed Interest Allocations during the period while the rider is in effect.

</R>

Market Value Adjustment

A Market Value Adjustment may decrease, increase or have no effect on your Contract value. We will apply a Market Value Adjustment (i) whenever you withdraw or transfer money from a Fixed Interest Allocation (unless made within 30 days before the maturity date of the applicable guaranteed interest period, or under the systematic withdrawal or dollar cost averaging program) and (ii) if on the annuity start date a guaranteed interest period for any Fixed Interest Allocation does not end on or within 30 days of the annuity start date.

A Market Value Adjustment may be positive, negative or result in no change. In general, if interest rates are rising, you bear the risk that any Market Value Adjustment will likely be negative and reduce your Contract value. On the other hand, if interest rates are falling, it is more likely that you will receive a positive Market Value Adjustment that increases your Contract value. In the event of a full surrender, transfer or annuitization from a Fixed Interest Allocation, we will add or subtract any Market Value Adjustment from the amount surrendered, transferred or annuitized. In the event of a partial withdrawal, transfer or annuitization, we will add or subtract any Market Value Adjustment from the total amount withdrawn, transferred or annuitized in order to provide the amount requested. If a negative Market Value Adjustment exceeds your Contract value in the Fixed Interest Allocation, we will consider your request to be a full surrender, transfer or annuitization of the Fixed Interest Allocation.

Contract Value in the Fixed Interest Allocations

On the contract date, the Contract value in any Fixed Interest Allocation in which you are invested is equal to the portion of the initial premium paid and designated for allocation to the Fixed Interest Allocation. On each business day after the contract date, we calculate the amount of Contract value in each Fixed Interest Allocation as follows:

(1)      We take the Contract value in the Fixed Interest Allocation at the end of the preceding business day.
(2)      We credit a daily rate of interest on (1) at the guaranteed rate since the preceding business day.
(3)      We add (1) and (2).
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

C2


(4)      We subtract from (3) any transfers from that Fixed Interest Allocation.
(5)      We subtract from (4) any withdrawals, and then subtract any contract fees (including any rider charges) and premium taxes.

Additional premium payments and transfers allocated to the Fixed Account will be placed in a new Fixed Interest Allocation. The Contract value on the date of allocation will be the amount allocated. Several examples which illustrate how the Market Value Adjustment works are included in the prospectus for Fixed Account II.

Cash Surrender Value

The cash surrender value is the amount you receive when you surrender the Contract. The cash surrender value of amounts allocated to the Fixed Account will fluctuate daily based on the interest credited to Fixed Interest Allocations, any Market Value Adjustment, and any surrender charge. We do not guarantee any minimum cash surrender value. On any date during the accumulation phase, we calculate the cash surrender value as follows: we start with your Contract value, then we adjust for any Market Value Adjustment, and then we deduct any surrender charge, any charge for premium taxes, the annual contract administrative fee (unless waived), and any optional benefit rider charge, and any other charges incurred but not yet deducted.

Dollar Cost Averaging from Fixed Interest Allocations

<R>

You may elect to participate in our dollar cost averaging program from a Fixed Account Interest Allocation with a guaranteed interest period of 1 year or less. The Fixed Interest Allocations serve as the source accounts from which we will, on a monthly basis, automatically transfer a set dollar amount of money to other Fixed Interest Allocations or contract investment portfolio subaccounts selected by you.

The dollar cost averaging program is designed to lessen the impact of market fluctuation on your investment. Since we transfer the same dollar amount to subaccounts each month, more units of a subaccount are purchased if the value of its unit is low and fewer units are purchased if the value of its unit is high. Therefore, a lower than average value per unit may be achieved over the long term. However, we cannot guarantee this. When you elect the dollar cost averaging program, you are continuously investing in securities regardless of fluctuating price levels. You should consider your tolerance for investing through periods of fluctuating price levels.

You elect the dollar amount you want transferred under this program. Each monthly transfer must be at least $100. You may change the transfer amount once each contract year.

</R>

Transfers from a Fixed Interest Allocation under the dollar cost averaging program are not subject to a Market Value Adjustment.

We may in the future offer additional subaccounts or withdraw any subaccount or Fixed Interest Allocation to or from the dollar cost averaging program or otherwise modify, suspend or terminate this program. Of course, such change will not affect any dollar cost averaging programs in operation at the time.

Suspension of Payments

We have the right to delay payment of amounts from a Fixed Interest Allocation for up to 6 months.

  APPENDIX D

Fixed Interest Division

A Fixed Interest Division option is available through the group and individual deferred variable annuity contracts offered by ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company. The Fixed Interest Division is part of the ING USA General Account. Interests in the Fixed Interest Division have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, and neither the Fixed Interest Division nor the General Account are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

<R>

Interests in the Fixed Interest Division are offered in certain states through an Offering Brochure, dated May 1, 2009 . The Fixed Interest Division is different from the Fixed Account which is described in the prospectus but which is not available in your state. If you are unsure whether the Fixed Account is available in your state, please contact our Customer Service Center at (800) 366-0066. When reading through the Prospectus, the Fixed Interest Division should be counted among the various investment options available for the allocation of your premiums, in lieu of the Fixed Account. The Fixed Interest Division may not be available in some states. Some restrictions may apply.

You will find more complete information relating to the Fixed Interest Division in the Offering Brochure. Please read the Offering Brochure carefully before you invest in the Fixed Interest Division.

  APPENDIX E

Surrender Charge for Excess Withdrawals Example

The following assumes you made an initial premium payment of $10,000 and additional premium payments of $10,000 in each of the second and third contract years, for total premium payments under the Contract of $30,000. It also assumes a withdrawal at the end of the third contract year of 30% of the contract value of $35,000.

In this example, $8,000 (10% of the total premium payments of $30,000, which is $3,000, plus cumulative earnings, which is $35,000 less $30,000, which equals $5,000) is the maximum free withdrawal amount that you may withdraw without a surrender charge. The total amount withdrawn from the contract would be $10,500 ($35,000 x .30). Therefore, $2,500 ($10,500 - $8,000) is considered an excess withdrawal of a part of the initial premium payment of $10,000 and would be subject to a 6% surrender charge of $160 ($2,500 x (1/(1-.06)-1)). The amount of the withdrawal paid to you will be $10,500, and in addition, $160 will be deducted from your contract value.

This example does not take into account any Market Value Adjustment or deduction of any premium taxes.

  APPENDIX H

ING LifePay Plus and ING Joint LifePay Plus Partial Withdrawal Amount Examples

The following example shows the adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has begun.

Illustration 1: Adjustment to the ING LifePay Plus Base for a withdrawal taken prior to the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase.

Assume the Annuitant is age 55 and the first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges. Because the ING LifePay Plus Rider is not yet eligible to enter the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, there is no Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the entire withdrawal is considered excess.

If the ING LifePay Plus Base and Account Value before the withdrawal are $100,000 and $90,000, respectively, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will reduce by 3.33% ($3,000/$90,000) to $96,667 ((1 - 3.33%)* $100,000).

Any additional withdrawals taken prior to the Annuitant reaching age 59½ will also result in an immediate pro-rata reduction to the ING LifePay Plus Base.

The following are examples of adjustments to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal:

Illustration 2: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. However, because only $4,500 in gross withdrawals was taken during the contract year prior to this withdrawal, $500 of the $1,500 gross withdrawal is not considered excess.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000, and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $1,500.

If the Contract Value before this withdrawal is $50,000, and the Contract Value is $49,500 after the part of the gross withdrawal that was within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 2.02% ($1,000 / $49,500) to $4,899 ((1 - 2.02%) * $5,000).

Illustration 3: A withdrawal exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount but does not exceed the Additional Withdrawal Amount.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. The Required Minimum Distribution for the current calendar year applicable to this contract is determined to be $6,000. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of this amount above the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000).

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. Total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, however, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not adjusted until the Additional Withdrawal Amount is exhausted. The amount by which total net withdrawals taken exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000), is the same as the Additional Withdrawal Amount, so no adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is made. If total net withdrawals taken had exceeded the sum of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional Withdrawal Amount, then an adjustment would be made to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Illustration 4: The Additional Withdrawal Amount at the end of the calendar year before it is withdrawn.

Assume the most recent contract date was July 1, 2007 and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. Also assume RMDs, applicable to this contract, are $6,000 and $5,000 for 2008 and 2009 calendar years respectively.

Between July 1, 2007 and December 31, 2007, a withdrawal of $5,000 is taken which exhausts the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

On January 1, 2008, the Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of the 2008 RMD above the existing Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000). Note that while the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exhausted, it is still used to calculate the Additional Withdrawal Amount.

The owner now has until December 31, 2009 to take the newly calculated Additional Withdrawal Amount of $1,000. The owner decides not to take the Additional Withdrawal Amount of $1,000 in 2008.

On January 1, 2009, the Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of the 2009 RMD above the existing Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $0 ($5,000 - $5,000). Note that the Additional Withdrawal Amount of $1,000 from the 2008 calendar year carries over into the 2009 calendar year and is available for withdrawal.

Illustration 5: A withdrawal exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount and the Additional Withdrawal Amount.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. The Required Minimum Distribution for the current calendar year applicable to this contract is determined to be $6,000. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of this amount above the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000).

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

<R>

ESII - 152940

H2


The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. Total net withdrawals taken, $8,000, exceed the sum of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional Withdrawal Amount, $6,000, and there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $8,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $3,500). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the sum of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional Withdrawal Amount ($8,000 - $6,000 = $2,000), and the amount of the current gross withdrawal ($3,500).

If the Contract Value before this withdrawal is $50,000, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 4.00% ($2,000 / $50,000) to $4,800 ((1 - 4.00%) * $5,000).

Illustration 6: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. However, because only $4,500 in gross withdrawals was taken during the contract year prior to this withdrawal, $500 of the $1,500 gross withdrawal is not considered excess.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000, and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $1,500.

If the Account Value after the part of the gross withdrawal that was within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $500, is $49,500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 2.02% ($1,000 / $49,500) to $4,899 ((1 - 2.02%) * $5,000).

Another withdrawal is taken during that same contract year in the amount of $400 net, with $100 of surrender charges. Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,500 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500 + $500). The adjustment to the MAW is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,500, and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $500.

If the Account Value before this withdrawal is $48,500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 1.03% ($500 / $48,500) to $4,849 ((1 – 1.03%) * $4,899).

  APPENDIX I

Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing

The following examples are designed to assist you in understanding how Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing works. The examples assume that there are no investment earnings or losses.

I. Subsequent Payments

A. Assume that on Day 1, an owner deposits an initial payment of $100,000, which is allocated 100% to Accepted Funds. No Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing would occur, because this allocation meets the required investment option allocation.

<R>

B. Assume that on Day 2, the owner deposits an additional payment of $500,000, bringing the total contract value to $600,000, and allocates this deposit 100% to Other Funds. Because the percentage allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds (0%) is less than 30% of the total amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and the Other Funds, we will automatically reallocate $150,000 from the amount allocated to the Other Funds (30% of the $500,000 allocated to the Other Funds) to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Your ending allocations will be $100,000 to Accepted Funds, $150,000 to the Fixed Allocation Funds, and $350,000 to Other Funds.

</R>

II. Partial Withdrawals

<R>

A. Assume that on Day 1, an owner deposits an initial payment of $100,000, which is allocated 65% to Accepted Funds ($65,000), 30% to the Fixed Allocation Funds ($30,000), and 5% to Other Funds ($5,000). No Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing would occur, because this allocation meets the required investment option allocation.

B. Assume that on Day 2, the owner requests a partial withdrawal of $29,000 from the Fixed Allocation Funds. Because the remaining amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds ($11,000) is less than 30% of the total amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and the Other Funds, we will automatically reallocate $800 from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds, so that the amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds ($1,800) is 30% of the total amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds ($16,000).

  APPENDIX J

ING LifePay Plus and ING Joint LifePay Plus

Important Note:

<R>

The information immediately below pertains to the form of the ING LifePay Plus and ING Joint LifePay Plus riders available for sale on and after April 28, 2008 through May 1, 2009 in states where approved (page J11 for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider). If this form of the ING LifePay Plus or ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is not yet approved for sale in your state, or if you purchased a prior version, please see page J21 for more information (page J31 for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider).

</R>

ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider. The ING LifePay Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of the annuitant, even if these withdrawals reduce your Contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are concerned that you may outlive your income.

     Eligibility. The annuitant must be the owner or one of the owners, unless the owner is a non-natural owner. Joint annuitants are not allowed. The maximum issue age is 80 (owner and annuitant must age qualify). The issue age is the age of the owner (or the annuitant if there are joint owners or the owner is non-natural) on the rider effective date. The ING LifePay Plus rider is subject to broker/dealer availability. Please note that the ING LifePay Plus rider will not be issued until your contract value is allocated in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below.

Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 are eligible for the ING LifePay Plus rider, subject to the conditions, requirements and limitations of the prior paragraph. Such Contracts must not already have a living benefit rider. Or if your Contract already has the ING LifePay or ING LifePay Plus rider, then you may be eligible to elect this version of the ING LifePay Plus rider for a limited time. There is an election form for this purpose. Please contact the Customer Service Center for more information.

Rider Effective Date. The rider effective date is the date that coverage under the ING LifePay Plus rider begins. If you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider when the Contract is issued, the rider effective date is also the Contract date. If the ING LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue, the rider effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once each quarter of a contract year from the contract date.

Charge. 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%  0.85% 

This quarterly charge is a percentage of the ING LifePay Plus Base. The current annual charge is 0.75% if this rider was purchased before 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 following the rider effective 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 effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once 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 the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs when 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 the Annual

<R>

Ratchet once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins. Before January 12, 2009, we reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING LifePay Plus rider upon a Quarterly Ratchet once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins. You will never pay more than new issues of this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. We promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. For more information about how this rider works, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider.”

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you: a) cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period; b) surrender the Contract; c) begin the income phase and start receiving annuity payments; or d) otherwise terminate the Contract pursuant to its terms. These events automatically cancel the ING LifePay Plus rider.

Termination. The ING LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you: Terminate your Contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender your Contract, or begin receiving income phase payments in lieu of payments under the ING LifePay Plus rider; or Die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract. The ING LifePay Plus rider also terminates with a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation on your death). Other circumstances that may cause the ING LifePay Plus rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

<R>

     Highlights. This paragraph introduces the terminology of the ING LifePay Plus rider and how its components generally work together. Benefits and guarantees are subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the ING LifePay Plus rider. More detailed information follows below, with the capitalized words that are underlined indicating headings for ease of reference. The ING LifePay Plus rider guarantees an amount available for withdrawal from the Contract in any contract year once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins – we use the ING LifePay Plus Base as part of the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The guarantee continues when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, at which time we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (since Contract value would be zero) until the annuitant’s death. The ING LifePay Plus Base is eligible for Annual Ratchets and 6% Compounding Step-Ups (Quarterly Ratchets and 7% Compounding Step-Ups if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009), and subject to adjustment for any Excess Withdrawals. The ING LifePay Plus rider has an allowance for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that would otherwise be Excess Withdrawals. The ING LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING LifePay Plus rider allows for spousal continuation.

</R>

     ING LifePay Plus Base. The ING LifePay Plus Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider: On the Contract date – equal to the initial premium (excluding any credit on the premium, or premium credit, available with your Contract); or After the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the effective date of the rider (excluding any premium credits applied during the preceding 36 months).

The ING LifePay Plus Base is increased, dollar for dollar, by any subsequent premiums (excluding any applicable premium credits). We refer to the ING LifePay Plus Base as the MGWB Base in the ING LifePay Plus rider.

Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including for payment of third-party investment advisory fees, have no impact on the ING LifePay Plus Base. These withdrawals will not incur surrender charges, a

<R>

negative Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations or any premium credit deduction (recapture).

Say for example the current Contract value is $90,000 on a Contract with the ING LifePay Plus rider in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The ING LifePay Plus Base is $100,000, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. Even though a withdrawal of $5,000 would reduce the Contract value to $85,000, the ING LifePay Plus Base would remain at its current level (as would the Maximum Annual Withdrawal as well) since the withdrawal did not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. See below for more information about the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

<R>

An Excess Withdrawal is a withdrawal either before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins (except for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), or once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, any portion of a withdrawal during a contract year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. An Excess Withdrawal is also a withdrawal after spousal continuation of the Contract but before the ING LifePay Plus rider’s guarantees resume, which occurs on the next quarterly contract anniversary following spousal continuation. An Excess Withdrawal will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base – in the same proportion as Contract value is reduced by the portion of the withdrawal that is considered excess, inclusive of surrender charges, or Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations or any premium credit deduction (recapture) (rather than the total amount of the withdrawal). An Excess Withdrawal will also cause the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Illustrations 1, 2 and 6 at the end of this appendix for examples of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal.

</R>

Please note that any withdrawals before the rider effective date in the same contract year when the ING LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

Annual Ratchet. The ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated on each contract anniversary – to equal the greater of: the current ING LifePay Plus Base; or the current Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the preceding 36 months). We call this recalculation the Annual Ratchet.

If this rider was purchased 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). 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 the Annual Ratchet. You will never pay more than new issues of the ING LifePay Plus rider, subject to the maximum annual charge, and we promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. 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, 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 Percentages is below under “Maximum Annual Withdrawal.” Our written notice will also remind you of the consequences of canceling the forthcoming Annual Ratchet.

If this rider was purchased 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 annual 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.

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 you took no withdrawals during the preceding contract year – to equal the greatest of: the current ING LifePay Plus Base; the current Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the preceding 36 months); and the ING LifePay Plus Base on the previous contract anniversary, increased by 6%, plus any premiums received (excluding any applicable

<R>

premium credits) 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.

If this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009, the step-up is 7%, which we call a 7% Compounding Step-Up.

Please note that there are no partial 6% Compounding Step-Ups. The 6% Compounding Step-Up is not prorated. So for existing Contracts to which this rider is attached (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.

If this rider was purchased 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.

Say for example that with a Contract purchased on January 1, 2007, the contract owner decides to add the ING LifePay Plus rider on March 15, 2007. The rider effective date is April 1, 2007, which is the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. Because on January 1, 2008 a full contract year will not have elapsed since the rider effective date, the ING LifePay Plus Base will not be eligible for a Step-up. Rather, the first opportunity for a Step-up with this Contract is on January 1, 2009.

     Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of your first withdrawal (except those for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), SO LONG AS the annuitant is age 59½. On this date, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of the current ING LifePay Base or the current Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the preceding 36 months). The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase will continue until the earliest of:

1)      the date annuity payments begin (see “The Annuity Options”);
2)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by an Excess Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
4)      surrender of the Contract; or
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

The ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status in the event Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” below for more information.

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 applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the Annuitant’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base.

<R>
The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:   
 
  Ages 
                                                                                                         4%  59 ½ to 64 
                                                                                                         5%  65-75 
                                                                                                         6%  76-79 
                                                                                                         7%  80+ 

</R> <R>

ESII - 152940

If this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:

<R>
  Ages 
5%  59 ½ to 69 
6%  70-79 
7%  80+ 

</R>

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is thereafter recalculated whenever the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated, for example, upon the Annual Ratchet or 6% Compounding Step-Up (Quarterly Ratchet or 7% Compounding Step-Up if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009.) Also, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage can increase with the Annual Ratchet as the annuitant grows older.

In the event on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins the Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the preceding 36 months) is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base, then before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated, the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to the Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the preceding 36 months). The greater the ING LifePay Plus Base, the greater the amount guaranteed to be available to you for withdrawals under the ING LifePay Plus rider in calculating the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the first time. Also, if the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while the ING LifePay Plus rider is in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, then you may elect a life only annuity option, in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options, under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. For more information about the Contract’s annuity options, see “The Annuity Options.”

<R>

Required Minimum Distributions. The ING LifePay Plus rider allows for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal without causing a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and recalculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, then an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Once you have taken the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year, the dollar amount of any additional withdrawals will count first against and reduce any unused Additional Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount for the current calendar year – without constituting an Excess Withdrawal. See Illustration 3 at the end of this appendix for an example.

Withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and all available Additional Withdrawal Amounts are Excess Withdrawals that will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Illustration 5 at the end of this appendix for an example of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal with an Additional Withdrawal Amount. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is available on a calendar year basis and recalculated every January, reset to equal that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date. Any unused amount of the Additional Withdrawal Amount carries over into the next calendar year and is available through the end of that year, at which time any amount remaining will expire. See Illustration 4 at the end of this appendix for an example of the Additional Withdrawal Amount being carried over. Please note that there is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount for Annual Ratchets (Quarterly Ratchets if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009) or upon spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus Rider.

</R>

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status when your Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. (A withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal that causes your Contract value to be reduced to zero will terminate the ING LifePay Plus rider.) You will no longer be entitled to make withdrawals, but instead will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status: the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J5


as provided under the ING LifePay Plus rider; no further premium payments will be accepted; and any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the annuitant at which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the annuitant’s death.

If when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status your net withdrawals to date are less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you the difference immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the first Contract anniversary following the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

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. Also, the ING LifePay Plus Base remains eligible for the 6% Compounding Step-Ups (7% Compounding Step-Ups if this rider was purchased 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 applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the annuitant’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base.

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Under a systematic withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made annually, then the payments will be made on each following contract anniversary.

     Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING LifePay Plus 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. 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 ING LifePay Plus 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.

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.

<R>

Fixed Allocation Funds. Currently, the Fixed Allocation Funds are:

ING American Funds Bond Portfolio
ING BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio
ING U.S. Bond Index Portfolio

ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio
ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio

You may allocate your contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.

Other Funds. All portfolios available under the Contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

</R>

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 the specified percentage of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. The specified percentage depends on the rider’s purchase date. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on each Contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J8


1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you;
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.
<R>

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.” You will be notified that Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred, along with your new allocations, by a confirmation statement that will be mailed to you after Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred.

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in it. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

</R>

     Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charges pro-rated) on the date of death of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner), or the annuitant if there is a non-natural owner. Also, an ING LifePay Plus rider that is in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status terminates on the date of the annuitant’s death.

ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base. The ING LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider: On the Contract date – equal to the initial premium (excluding any credit on the premium, or premium credit, available with your Contract); Or after the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the rider effective date (excluding any premium credits applied during the preceding 36 months).

The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is increased by the dollar amount of any subsequent premiums (excluding any applicable premium credits) and subject to any withdrawal adjustments. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is reduced by the dollar amount of any withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, and for any withdrawals once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins that are not Excess Withdrawals, including withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is subject to a pro-rata reduction for an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “ING LifePay Plus Base - Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals” above for more information.

There is no additional charge for the death benefit associated with the ING LifePay Plus rider. Please note that the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is not eligible to participate in Annual Ratchets or 6 % Compounding Step-Ups (Quarterly Ratchets and 7% Compounding Step-Ups if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009).

In the event the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than zero when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, each periodic payment reduces the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base dollar for dollar until the earlier date of the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base being reduced to zero or the annuitant’s death. Upon the annuitant’s death, any remaining ING LifePay Plus death benefit is payable to the beneficiary in a lump sum.

<R>

Spousal Continuation. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue , provided the spouse becomes the annuitant and sole owner. At the time the Contract is

ESII - 152940

</R>

J9


<R>

continued, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied after the deceased owner’s death), inclusive of the guaranteed death benefit – UNLESS the continuing spouse is a joint owner and the original annuitant, OR the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has not yet begun. In this case, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of: the Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied after the deceased owner’s death), inclusive of the guaranteed death benefit; and the last calculated ING LifePay Plus Base, subject to pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation. Regardless, the ING LifePay Plus rider’s guarantees resume on the next quarterly contract anniversary following spousal continuation. Any withdrawals after spousal continuation of the Contract but before the ING LifePay Plus rider’s guarantees resume are Excess Withdrawals. The ING LifePay Plus rider remains eligible for the Annual Ratchet upon recalculation of the ING LifePay Plus Base (Quarterly Ratchets if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009).

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is also recalculated at the same time as the ING LifePay Plus Base; however, there is no Maximum Annual Withdrawal upon spousal continuation until the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of the first withdrawal after spousal continuation, SO LONG AS the annuitant is age 59½. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated to equal the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the new annuitant’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base. There is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount upon spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus rider for a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code. Any withdrawals before the owner’s death and spousal continuation are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

</R>

Please note, if the Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the preceding 36 months) is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to the Contract value (excluding any premium credits applied during the preceding 36 months) before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated. Also, upon spousal continuation, the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base equals the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base before the owner’s death, subject to any pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation of the rider.

Contrary to the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus rider would likely NOT take effect at the same time as the Contract is continued. As noted above, the ING LifePay Plus rider provides for spousal continuation only on a quarterly contract anniversary (subject to the spouse becoming the annuitant and sole owner). So if you are concerned about the availability of benefits being interrupted with spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus rider, you might instead want to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charge pro-rated) upon any ownership change or change of annuitant, except for:

1)      spousal continuation as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual;
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      change in trust as owner where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual;
7)      change of owner from an individual to a trust where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual;
8)      change of owner from a trust to an individual where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual; and
9)      change of owner pursuant to a court order.

     Surrender Charges. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, your withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (and any applicable Additional Withdrawal Amount) are not subject to surrender charges. We waive any surrender charges otherwise applicable to your withdrawal in a contract year that

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J10


<R>

is less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Excess Withdrawals are subject to surrender charges, whether or not the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has begun. Once your Contract value is reduced to zero, any periodic payments under the ING LifePay Plus rider would not be subject to surrender charges. Moreover, with no contract value, none of your contract level recurring charges (e.g., the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge) would be deducted.

</R>

Loans. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the ING LifePay Plus rider.

     Taxation. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING LifePay Plus Rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

Important Note:

<R>

The below information pertains to the form of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider available for sale beginning on and after April 28, 2008 through May 1, 2009, in states where approved. If this form of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is not yet approved for sale in your state, or if you purchased a prior version, please see page J31 .

</R>

ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of both you and your spouse, even if these withdrawals reduce your Contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are married and concerned that you and your spouse may outlive your income.

     Eligibility. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is only available for purchase by individuals who are married at the time of purchase (spouses) and eligible to elect spousal continuation (as defined by the Tax Code) of the Contract when the death benefit becomes payable, subject to the owner, annuitant and beneficiary requirements below. The maximum issue age is 80. Both spouses must meet the issue age requirement. The issue age is the age of each owner on the rider effective date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is subject to broker/dealer availability.

Please note that the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will not be issued unless the required owner, annuitant and beneficiary designations are met, and until your contract value is allocated in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below.

Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 are eligible for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, subject to the conditions, requirements and limitations of the prior paragraph. Such Contracts must not already have a living benefit rider. Or if your Contract already has the ING Joint LifePay or ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, then you may be eligible to elect this version of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider for a limited time. There is an election form for this purpose. Please contact the Customer Service Center for more information.

Owner, Annuitant and Beneficiary Designations. For nonqualified contracts: Joint owners must be spouses, and one of the owners the annuitant; and For a Contract with only one owner, the owner’s spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary. For qualified contracts, there may only be one owner who must also be the annuitant, and then the owner’s spouse must also be the sole primary beneficiary. Non-natural, custodial owners are only allowed with IRAs. Owner and beneficiary designations for custodial IRAs must be the same as for any other qualified contract. The annuitant must be the beneficial owner of the custodial IRA. We require the custodian to provide us the name and date of birth of both the owner and owner’s spouse. We do not maintain individual owner and beneficiary designations for custodial IRAs. In no event are joint annuitants allowed. We reserve the right to verify the date of birth and social security number of both spouses.

Rider Effective Date. The rider effective date is the date that coverage under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider begins. If you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider when the Contract is issued, the rider effective date is also the Contract date. If the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue, the rider effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once each quarter of a contract year from the contract date.

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J11


Active Spouse. An Active Spouse is the person (people) upon whose life and age the guarantees are calculated under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. There must be two Active Spouses when you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, who are married to each other and either are joint owners, or for a Contract with only one owner, the spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary. You cannot add an Active Spouse after the rider effective date. In general, changes in ownership of the Contract, the annuitant and/or beneficiary would result in one spouse being deactivated (the spouse is thereafter inactive). An inactive spouse is not eligible to exercise any rights or receive any benefits under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, including continuing the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider upon spousal continuation of the Contract. Once an Active Spouse is deactivated, the spouse may not become an Active Spouse again. Specific situations that would result in a spouse being deactivated include:

1)      for nonqualified contracts where the spouses are joint owners, the removal of a joint owner (if that spouse does not automatically become sole primary beneficiary pursuant to the terms of the Contract), or the change of one joint owner to a person other than an Active Spouse;
2)      for nonqualified contracts where one spouse is the owner and the other spouse is the sole primary beneficiary, as well as for IRA contracts (including custodial IRAs), the addition of a joint owner who is not also an Active Spouse or any change of beneficiary (including the addition of primary beneficiaries); or
3)      the spouse’s death.

An owner may also request that a spouse be deactivated. Both owners must agree when there are joint owners.

However, all charges for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider would continue to apply, even after a spouse is deactivated, regardless of the reason. So please be sure to understand the impact of any beneficiary or owner changes on the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider before requesting any changes. Also, please note that a divorce terminates the ability of an ex-spouse to continue the Contract. See “Divorce” below for more information.

Charge. 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%  1.05% 

This quarterly charge is a percentage of the ING LifePay Plus Base. The current annual charge is 0.95% if this rider was purchased before 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 following the rider effective 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 effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once 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 the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs when your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions are met. We reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider upon the Annual Ratchet once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins. Before January 12, 2009, we reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider upon a Quarterly Ratchet once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins. You will never pay more than new issues of this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. We promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. For more information about how this rider works, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider.”

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more

information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you: a) cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period; b) surrender the Contract; c) begin the income phase and start receiving annuity payments; or d) otherwise terminate the Contract pursuant to its terms. These events automatically cancel the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

<R>

Termination. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you and your spouse while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you: Terminate your Contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender your Contract, or begin receiving income phase payments in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider; or Die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract (and your spouse is an Active Spouse). The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider also terminates with a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation on your death by an Active Spouse). Other circumstances that may cause the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

</R>

     Highlights. This paragraph introduces the terminology of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and how its components generally work together. Benefits and guarantees are subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. More detailed information follows below, with the capitalized words that are underlined indicating headings for ease of reference. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider guarantees an amount available for withdrawal from the Contract in any contract year once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins – we use the ING LifePay Plus Base as part of the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The guarantee continues when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, at which time we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (since Contract value would be zero) until the last Active Spouse’s death. The ING LifePay Plus Base is eligible for Annual Ratchets and 6% Compounding Step-Ups (Quarterly Ratchets and 7% Compounding Step-Ups if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009), and subject to adjustment for any Excess Withdrawals. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has an allowance for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that would otherwise be Excess Withdrawals. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider allows for spousal continuation.

     ING LifePay Plus Base. The ING LifePay Plus Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider: On the Contract date – equal to the initial premium; or After the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the effective date of the rider.

The ING LifePay Plus Base is increased, dollar for dollar, by any subsequent premiums. We refer to the ING LifePay Plus Base as the MGWB Base in the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including for payment of third-party investment advisory fees, have no impact on the ING LifePay Plus Base. These withdrawals will not incur surrender charges or a negative Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations.

Say for example the current Contract value is $90,000 on a Contract with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The ING LifePay Plus Base is $100,000, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. Even though a withdrawal of $5,000 would reduce the Contract value to $85,000, the ING LifePay Plus Base would remain at its current level (as would the Maximum Annual Withdrawal as well) since the withdrawal did not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. See below for more information about the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

An Excess Withdrawal is a withdrawal either before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins (except for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), or once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, any portion of a

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J13


<R>

withdrawal during a contract year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. An Excess Withdrawal will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base – in the same proportion as Contract value is reduced by the portion of the withdrawal that is considered excess, inclusive of surrender charges, or Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations (rather than the total amount of the withdrawal). An Excess Withdrawal will also cause the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Illustrations 1, 2 and 6 at the end of this appendix for examples of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal.

</R>

Please note that any withdrawals before the rider effective date in the same contract year when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

<R>

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

</R>

If this rider was purchased 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). 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 the 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 promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. 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, 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 Percentages is below under “Maximum Annual Withdrawal.” Our written notice will also remind you of the consequences of canceling the forthcoming Annua Ratchet.

If this rider was purchased 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 annual 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.

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 you took no withdrawals during the preceding contract year – to equal the greatest of: the current ING LifePay Plus Base; the current Contract value; and the ING 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.

If this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009, the step-up is 7%, which we call a 7% Compounding Step-Up.

Please note that there are no partial 6% Compounding Step-Ups. The 6% Compounding Step-Up is not prorated. So for existing Contracts to which this rider is attached (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.

If this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009, the step-up is 7%, which we call the 7% Compounding Step-Up. The 7% Compounding Step-Up is not pro-rated.

Say for example that with a Contract purchased on January 1, 2007, the contract owner decides to add the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider on March 15, 2007. The rider effective date is April 1, 2007, which is the date of the

J14


Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. Because on January 1, 2008 a full contract year will not have elapsed since the rider effective date, the ING LifePay Plus Base will not be eligible for a step-up. Rather, the first opportunity for a step-up with this Contract is on January 1, 2009.

     Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of your first withdrawal (except those for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), SO LONG AS the youngest Active Spouse is age 59½. On this date, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of the current ING LifePay Base or the current Contract value. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase will continue until the earliest of:

1)      the date annuity payments begin (see “The Annuity Options”);
2)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by an Excess Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
4)      surrender of the Contract;
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary is an Active Spouse who elects to continue the Contract; or
6)      the last Active Spouse dies.

The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status in the event Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” below for more information.

Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is the amount that the ING Joint 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 applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the younger Active Spouse’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base.

<R>
The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:   
 
  Ages 
                                                                                                         4%  59 ½ to 64 
                                                                                                         5%  65-75 
                                                                                                         6%  76-79 
                                                                                                         7%  80+ 

</R>

If this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:

<R>
  Ages 
4%  59 ½ to 64 
5%  65-69 
6%  70-79 
7%  80+ 

</R>

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is thereafter recalculated whenever the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated, for example, upon the Annual Ratchet or 6% Compounding Step-Up (Quarterly Ratchet or 7% Compounding Step-Up if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009). Also, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage can increase with the Annual Ratchet as the younger Active Spouse grows older.

In the event on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins the Contract value is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base, then before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated, the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to the Contract value. The greater the ING LifePay Plus Base, the greater the amount guaranteed to be available to you for withdrawals under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider in calculating the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the first time. Also, if the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, then you may elect a life only

annuity option, in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options, under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. For more information about the Contract’s annuity options, see “The Annuity Options.”

<R>

Required Minimum Distributions. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider allows for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal without causing a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and recalculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, then an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Once you have taken the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year, the dollar amount of any additional withdrawals will count first against and reduce any unused Additional Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount for the current calendar year – without constituting an Excess Withdrawal. See Illustration 3 at the end of this appendix for an example.

Withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and all available Additional Withdrawal Amounts are Excess Withdrawals that will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Illustration 5 at the end of this appendix for an example of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal with an Additional Withdrawal Amount. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is available on a calendar year basis and recalculated every January, reset to equal that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date. Any unused amount of the Additional Withdrawal Amount carries over into the next calendar year and is available through the end of that year, at which time any amount remaining will expire. See Illustration 4 at the end of this appendix for an example of the Additional Withdrawal Amount being carried over. Please note that there is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount for Annual Ratchets (Quarterly Ratchets if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009) or upon spousal continuation of the ING Joint LifePay Plus Rider.

</R>

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status when your Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. (A withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal that causes your Contract value to be reduced to zero will terminate the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.) You will no longer be entitled to make withdrawals, but instead will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status: the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider; no further premium payments will be accepted; and any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the last Active Spouse at which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the last Active Spouse’s death.

If when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status your net withdrawals to date are less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you the difference immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the first Contract anniversary following the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

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 youngest Active Spouse is age 59½. During this time, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider’s death benefit remains payable upon the last Active Spouse’s death. Also, the ING LifePay Plus Base remains eligible for the 6% Compounding Step-Ups (7% Compounding Step-Ups if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009). Once the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, periodic payments will begin in an annual amount equal to the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the youngest Active Spouse’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base. If an Active Spouse were to die while Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status is

J16


deferred, then when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, and the annual amount of the periodic payments, would be based on the remaining Active Spouse’s age.

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Under a systematic withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made annually, then the payments will be made on each following contract anniversary.

     Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING Joint LifePay Plus 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 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. We have these investment option restrictions to lessen the likelihood we would have to make payments under with this rider. We require this allocation regardless of your investment instructions to the Contract. The ING Joint LifePay Plus 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.

<R>

Accepted Funds. Currently, the Accepted Funds are:

BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund
ING American Funds Asset Allocation Portfolio
ING American Funds World Allocation Portfolio
ING LifeStyle Conservative Portfolio
ING LifeStyle Growth Portfolio

</R> <R>
</R> <R>

You may allocate your contract value to one or more Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.

</R>

Other Funds. All portfolios available under the Contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than the specified percentage of the total Contract value allocated among the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Date, we will automatically rebalance the Contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that the specified percentage of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. The specified percentage depends on the rider’s purchase date. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on each Contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you;
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.” You will be notified that Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred, along with your new allocations, by a confirmation statement that will be mailed to you after Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred.

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in it. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

     Divorce. Generally, in the event of divorce, the spouse who retains ownership of the Contract will continue to be entitled to all rights and benefits of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, while the ex-spouse will not longer have any such rights or be entitled to any such benefits. In the event of a divorce during the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider would continue until the owner’s death (first owner in the case of joint owners, or annuitant in the case of a custodial IRA). Although spousal continuation may be available under the Tax Code for a subsequent spouse, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider cannot be continued by the new spouse. As a result of the divorce, we may be required to withdraw assets for the benefit of an ex-spouse. Any such withdrawal would be considered a withdrawal for purposes of the ING LifePay Plus Base. See “ING LifePay Plus Base – Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals” above. In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, there will be no change in the amount of your periodic payments. Payments will continue until both spouses are deceased.

     Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charges prorated) on the earlier of the date of death of the last Active Spouse, or when the surviving spouse decides not to continue the Contract.

ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the first owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider: On the Contract date – equal to the initial premium; Or after the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the rider effective date.

The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is increased by the dollar amount of any subsequent premiums and subject to any withdrawal adjustments. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is reduced by the dollar amount of any withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, and for any withdrawals once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins that are not Excess Withdrawals, including withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is subject to a pro-rata reduction for an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “ING LifePay Plus Base – Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals” above for more information.

There is no additional charge for the death benefit associated with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. Please note that the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is not eligible to participate in Annual Ratchets or 6% Compounding Step-Ups (Quarterly Ratchets and 7% Compounding Step-Ups if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009).

In the event the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than zero when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, each periodic payment reduces the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base dollar for dollar until the earlier date of the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base being reduced to zero or the last Active Spouse’s death. Upon the last Active Spouse’s death, any remaining ING LifePay Plus death benefit is payable to the beneficiary in a lump sum.

Spousal Continuation. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue, SO LONG AS the surviving spouse in an Active Spouse. At that time the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of: the Contract value, inclusive of the guaranteed death benefit; and the last calculated ING LifePay Plus Base, subject to pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation.

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is also recalculated; however, there is no Maximum Annual Withdrawal upon spousal continuation until the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of the first withdrawal after spousal continuation, SO LONG AS the last Active Spouse is age 59½. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated to equal the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the last Active Spouse’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base. There is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount upon spousal continuation of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider for a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code. Any withdrawals before the owner’s death and spousal continuation are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J20


Please note, if the Contract value is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to the Contract value before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated. Also, upon spousal continuation, the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base equals the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base before the owner’s death, subject to any pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation of the rider.

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charge prorated) upon an ownership change or change of annuitant, except for:

1)      spousal continuation as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual (owner’s spouse must be named sole primary beneficiary to remain an Active Spouse);
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      for nonqualified contracts only, the addition of a joint owner, provided the added joint owner is the original owner’s spouse and is an Active Spouse when added as a joint owner;
7)      for nonqualified contracts only, the removal of a joint owner, provided the removed joint owner is an Active Spouse and becomes the sole primary beneficiary; and
8)      change of owner where the owner becomes the sole primary beneficiary and the sole primary beneficiary becomes the owner, provided both spouses are Active Spouses at the time of the change.
<R>

     Surrender Charges. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, your withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (and any applicable Additional Withdrawal Amount) are not subject to surrender charges. We waive any surrender charges otherwise applicable to your withdrawal in a contract year that is less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Excess Withdrawals are subject to surrender charges, whether or not the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has begun. Once your Contract value is reduced to zero, any periodic payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider would not be subject to surrender charges. Moreover, with no contract value, none of your contract level recurring charges (e.g., the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge) would be deducted.

</R>

Loans. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

     Taxation. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING Joint LifePay Plus Rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

Important Note:

The information immediately below pertains to the form of the ING LifePay Plus rider available for sale on and after August 20, 2007 through April 28, 2008 in states where approved.

ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider. The ING LifePay Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of the annuitant, even if these withdrawals deplete your Contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are concerned that you may outlive your income.

     Purchase. In order to elect the ING LifePay Plus rider, the annuitant must be the owner or one of the owners, unless the owner is a non-natural owner. Joint annuitants are not allowed. The maximum issue age is 80. The issue age is the age of the owner (or the annuitant if there are joint owners or the owner is non-natural) on the Contract anniversary on which the rider is effective. Some broker-dealers may limit the availability of the rider to younger ages. The ING LifePay Plus rider is available for Contracts issued on and after August 20, 2007 (subject to availability and state approvals) that do not already have a living benefit rider. The ING LifePay Plus rider will not be issued if the initial allocation to investment options is not in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below. The Company in its discretion may allow the rider to be elected after a contract has been issued without it, subject to certain conditions. Contact the Customer Service

J21


Center for more information. Such election must be received in good order, including compliance with the investment restrictions described below. The rider will be effective as of the following quarterly Contract anniversary.

Rider Date. The rider date is the date the ING LifePay Plus rider becomes effective. If you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider when the Contract is issued, the rider date is also the Contract date.

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

Maximum Annual Charge  Current Annual Charge 
2.00%  0.60% 

This quarterly charge is a percentage of the ING LifePay Plus Base. 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 added after contract issue, the rider and charges will begin on the next following quarterly contract anniversary. The charge will be pro-rated when the rider is terminated. Charges are deducted through the date your rider enters either the Automatic Periodic Benefit Status or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Automatic Periodic Benefit Status or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs if your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions are met. The current charge can change upon a reset after your first five contract years. You will never pay more than the maximum annual charge.

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C. We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. If changed, the new charge will only apply to riders issued after the change.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period, surrender, annuitize or otherwise terminate the Contract. These events automatically cancel the ING LifePay Plus rider.

Termination. The ING LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you:

1)      annuitize, surrender or otherwise terminate your Contract during the accumulation phase; or
2)      die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

The ING LifePay Plus rider will also terminate if there is a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation on your death). Other circumstances that may cause the ING LifePay Plus rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

     Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date of the first withdrawal, ONLY IF the quarterly contract anniversary following the annuitant reaching age 59½ has not yet passed. While the ING LifePay Plus rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, withdrawals in a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will reduce the ING LifePay Plus Base dollar-for-dollar. This status will then continue until the earliest of:

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J22


1)      quarterly contract anniversary following the annuitant reaching age 59½, provided the contract owner does not decline the change to Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status;
2)      reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base to zero, at which time the rider will terminate;
3)      the annuity commencement date;
4)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
5)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (see “Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
6)      the surrender or annuitization of the Contract; or
7)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

Please note that withdrawals while in the ING LifePay Plus rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status are not guaranteed for the lifetime of the annuitant.

     Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date of your first withdrawal, provided the quarterly contract anniversary following the annuitant’s age 59½ has passed. If your first withdrawal is taken before this date, then the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status will automatically begin on the quarterly contract anniversary following the annuitant reaching age 59½. This status continues until the earliest of:

1)      the annuity commencement date;
2)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
4)      the surrender or annuitization of the Contract; or
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

You will receive prior notice, of not less than 30 days, if you are in the Guaranteed Withdrawal Status and become eligible for the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This notice will explain the change, its impact to you and your options. You may decline this change. Automatic reset into the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status could result in a lower Maximum Annual Withdrawal. However, this action will also apply to all future resets (see below) and cannot be reversed. As described below, certain features of the ING LifePay Plus rider may differ depending upon whether you are in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

     How the ING LifePay Plus Rider Works. The ING LifePay Plus Withdrawal Benefit rider has two phases. The first phase, called the Growth Phase, begins on the effective date of the rider and ends as of the business day before the first withdrawal is taken (or when the annuity commencement date is reached). The second phase is called the Withdrawal Phase. This phase begins as of the date of the first withdrawal or the annuity commencement date, whichever occurs first.

Benefits paid under the ING LifePay Plus rider require the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The ING LifePay Plus Base (referred to as the “MGWB Base” in the Contract) is used to determine the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and is calculated as follows:

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J23


1)      If you purchased the ING LifePay Plus rider on the Contract date, the initial ING LifePay Plus Base is equal to the initial premium.
2)      If you purchased the ING LifePay Plus rider after the Contract date, the initial ING LifePay Plus Base is equal to the Contract value on the effective date of the rider.

During the Growth Phase, the initial ING LifePay Plus Base is increased dollar-for-dollar by any premiums received (“eligible premiums”). In addition, on each quarterly contract anniversary, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated as the greater of:

  • The current ING LifePay Plus Base; or
  • The current Contract value. This is referred to as a quarterly “ratchet.”

Also, on each of the first ten contract anniversaries, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated as the greatest of:

  • The current ING LifePay Plus Base; or
  • The current Contract value; and
  • The ING LifePay Plus Base on the previous contract anniversary, increased by 7%, plus any eligible premiums and minus any third-party investment advisory fees paid from your contract during the year.
    This is referred to as an annual “step-up.”

Please note that if this rider is added after the contract date, then the first opportunity for a step-up will be on the first contract anniversary following a complete contract year after the rider date.

The ING LifePay Plus Base has no additional impact on the calculation of annuity payments or withdrawal benefits.

Currently, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are not eligible premiums for purposes of determining the ING LifePay Plus Base or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal; however, we reserve the right to treat such premiums as eligible premiums at our discretion, in a nondiscriminatory manner. Premiums received during the Withdrawal Phase do increase the Contract value used to determine the reset Maximum Annual Withdrawal under the benefit reset feature of the ING LifePay Plus rider (see “ING LifePay Plus Reset,” below). We reserve the right to discontinue allowing premium payments during the Withdrawal Phase.

     Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is determined on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins. It equals a percentage of the greater of 1) the Contract value and 2) the ING LifePay Plus Base as of the last day of the Growth Phase. The first withdrawal after the effective date of the rider (which causes the end of the Growth Phase) is treated as occurring on the first day of the Withdrawal Phase, after calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage, which varies by age of the annuitant on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins, is as follows:

  Maximum Annual 
Annuitant Age  Withdrawal Percentage 
0-75*  5%* 
76-80  6% 
81+  7% 

<R>

*If the Withdrawal Phase begins before the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the annuitant reaches age 59 ½, withdrawals in a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will reduce the ING LifePay Plus Base dollar-for-dollar, under what we refer to as the “Standard Withdrawal Benefit.” Then, on the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the annuitant reaches age 59½, the ING LifePay Plus Base will automatically be reset to the current Contract value, if greater, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be recalculated.

</R>

Once determined, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage never changes for the Contract, except as provided for under spousal continuation. See “Continuation After Death – Spouse,” below. This is important to

<R>

J24


keep in mind in deciding when to take your first withdrawal because the younger you are at that time, the lower the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage.

If the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while you are in the ING LifePay Plus rider’s Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, then you may elect a life only annuity option, in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options, under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

If withdrawals in any Contract year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, then the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. This means that both the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced by the same proportion as the withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (the “excess withdrawal”) is of the Contract value determined:

1)      before the withdrawal, for the excess withdrawal; and
2)      after the withdrawal, for the amount withdrawn up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (without regard to the excess withdrawal).
<R>

When a withdrawal is made, the total withdrawals taken in a Contract year are compared with the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal. To the extent that the withdrawal taken causes the total withdrawals in that year to exceed the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal, that withdrawal is considered excess. For purposes of determining whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded, any applicable Market Value Adjustment or surrender charges will not be applied to the withdrawal. However, for purposes of determining the Maximum Annual Withdrawal reduction after an excess withdrawal, any surrender charges and/or Market Value Adjustment are considered to be part of the withdrawal. See Illustrations 1 and 2 at the end of this appendix for examples of this concept.

</R>

     Required Minimum Distributions. Withdrawals taken from the Contract to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code, that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for a specific Contract year, will not be deemed excess withdrawals in that Contract year for purposes of the ING LifePay Plus rider, subject to the following rules:

1)      If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
2)      You may withdraw the Additional Withdrawal Amount from this Contract without it being deemed an excess withdrawal.
3)      Any withdrawals taken in a Contract year will count first against the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that Contract year.
4)      Once the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year has been taken, additional amounts withdrawn in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will count first against and reduce any unused Additional Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount for the current calendar year.
5)      Withdrawals that exceed all available Additional Withdrawal Amounts are excess withdrawals and will reduce the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on a pro-rata basis, as described above.
6)      The Additional Withdrawal Amount is reset to zero at the end of the second calendar year from which it was originally calculated.
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J25


7)      If the Contract is still in the Growth Phase on the date the Additional Withdrawal Amount is determined, but enters the Withdrawal Phase later during that calendar year, the Additional Withdrawal Amount will be equal to the amount in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal necessary to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution for that year (if any).
<R>

See Illustration 3 at the end of this appendix.

</R>

     Investment Advisory Fees. Withdrawals taken pursuant to a program established by the owner for the payment of investment advisory fees to a named third party investment adviser for advice on management of the Contract’s values will not cause the Withdrawal Phase to begin. During the Growth Phase, such withdrawals reduce the ING LifePay Plus Base on a dollar-for-dollar basis, and during the Withdrawal Phase, these withdrawals are treated as any other withdrawal.

     Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the Contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal while the rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the rider will enter Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are entitled to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, until the remaining ING LifePay Plus Base is exhausted.

When the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1)      the Contract will provide no further benefits other than as provided under the ING LifePay Plus rider;
2)      no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3)      any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will continue until the ING LifePay Plus Base is reduced to zero, at which time the rider will terminate without value.

The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full Contract year following the date the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter. If, at the time the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-Contract year or Contract year, as applicable.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the Contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Contract and the rider will terminate due to the pro-rata reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above.

If the Contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal while the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the rider will enter Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are entitled to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1)      the Contract will provide no further benefits other than as provided under the ING LifePay Plus rider;
2)      no further premium payments will be accepted; and
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J26


3) any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the annuitant at which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the annuitant’s death.

The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full Contract year following the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter. If, at the time the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-Contract year or Contract year, as applicable.

     ING LifePay Plus Reset. Once the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been determined, on each quarterly contract anniversary we will increase (or “reset”) the ING LifePay Plus Base to the current Contract value, if the Contract value is higher. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal will also be recalculated, and the remaining portion of the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be available for withdrawal immediately. This reset ONLY occurs when the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, and is automatic.

We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider with a reset. In this event, you will receive prior notice, of not less than 30 days, which explains the change, its impact to you and your options. You may decline this change (and the reset). However, this action will apply to all future resets and cannot be reversed.

     Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING LifePay Plus 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 20% of such Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds. See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below.

You may allocate your contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.

ESII - 152940

</R>

J28


If the rider is not continued under the spousal continuation right when available, the Fixed Allocation Fund may be reclassified as a Special Fund as of the Contract continuation date if it would otherwise be designated as a Special Fund for purposes of the Contract’s death benefits. For purposes of calculating any applicable death benefit guaranteed under the Contract, any allocation of Contract value to the Fixed Allocation Funds will be considered a Covered Fund allocation while the rider is in effect.

     Other Funds. All portfolios available under the Contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

     Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than 20% of the total Contract value allocated to 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 20% of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis among the Other Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on each Contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you; and
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.”

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in them. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

     Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay Plus rider and charges will terminate on the date of death of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner), or the annuitant if there is a non-natural owner.

     Continuation After Death – Spouse. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue on the next quarterly contract anniversary, provided the spouse becomes the annuitant and sole owner.

If the rider is in the Growth Phase at the time of spousal continuation:

1)      The rider will continue in the Growth Phase;
2)      On the date the rider is continued, the ING LifePay Plus Base will be reset to equal the greater of the ING LifePay Plus Base and the then current Contract value;
3)      The ING LifePay Plus charges will restart and be the same as were in effect prior to the claim date;
4)      Ratchets, which stop on the claim date, are restarted, effective on the date the rider is continued;
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J29


5)      Any remaining step-ups will be available, and if the rider is continued before an annual contract anniversary when a step-up would have been available, then that step-up will be available;
6)      The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage will be determined as of the date of the first withdrawal, whenever it occurs, and will be based on the spouse’s age on that date; and
7)      The rider’s Standard Withdrawal Benefit will be available until the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the spouse is age 59½.

If the rider is in the Withdrawal Phase at the time of spousal continuation:

1)      The rider will continue in the Withdrawal Phase.
2)      The rider’s charges will restart on the date the rider is continued and be the same as were in effect prior
  to      the claim date.
3)      On the quarterly Contract anniversary that the date the rider is continued:
  (a)      If the surviving spouse was not the annuitant before the owner’s death, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will be reset to the current Contract value and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated by multiplying the new ING LifePay Plus Base by the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage based on the surviving spouse’s age on that date. Withdrawals are permitted pursuant to the other provisions of the rider. Withdrawals causing the Contract value to fall to zero will terminate the Contract and the rider.
  (b)      If the surviving spouse was the annuitant before the owner’s death, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will be reset to the current Contract value, only if greater, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated by multiplying the new ING LifePay Plus Base by the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage. Withdrawals are permitted pursuant to the other provisions of the rider.
4)      The rider charges will restart on the quarter Contract anniversary that the rider is continued and will be
  the      same as were in effect prior to the claim date.

     Effect of ING LifePay Plus Rider on Death Benefit. If you die before Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status begins under the ING LifePay Plus rider, the death benefit is payable, but the rider terminates. However, if the beneficiary is the owner’s spouse, and the spouse elects to continue the Contract, the death benefit is not payable until the spouse’s death. Thus, you should not purchase this rider with multiple owners, unless the owners are spouses. See “Death of Owner or Annuitant” and “Continuation After Death –Spouse,” above for further information.

While in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if the owner who is not the annuitant dies, we will continue to pay the periodic payments that the owner was receiving under the ING LifePay Plus rider to the beneficiary. While in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if an owner who is also the annuitant dies, the periodic payments will stop. No other death benefit is payable.

While the rider is in Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if the owner dies, the remaining ING LifePay Plus Base will be paid to the beneficiary in a lump sum.

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. Other than as provided above under “Continuation After Death- Spouse,” you may not change the annuitant. The rider and rider charges will terminate upon change of owner, including adding an additional owner, except for the following ownership changes:

1)      spousal continuation as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J30


3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual;
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      change in trust as owner where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual;
7)      change of owner from an individual to a trust where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual; and
8)      change of owner from a trust to an individual where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual.

     Surrender Charges. If you elect the ING LifePay Plus rider, your withdrawals will be subject to surrender charges if they exceed the free withdrawal amount. However, once your Contract value is zero, the periodic payments under the ING LifePay Plus rider are not subject to surrender charges.

Loans. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the ING LifePay Plus rider.

     Taxation. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING LifePay Plus Rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

Important Note:

The information immediately below pertains to the form of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider available for sale on and after August 20, 2007 through April 28, 2008 in states where approved.

ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of both you and your spouse, even if these withdrawals deplete your contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are married and are concerned that you and your spouse may outlive your income.

     Purchase. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is only available for purchase by individuals who are married at the time of purchase and eligible to elect spousal continuation (as defined by the Tax Code) when the death benefit becomes payable. We refer to these individuals as spouses. Certain ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations are required in order to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. See “Ownership, Annuitant, and Beneficiary Requirements,” below.

The maximum issue age is 80. Both spouses must meet these issue age requirements on the contract anniversary on which the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is effective. The issue age is the age of the owners on the Contract anniversary on which the rider is effective. Some broker dealers may limit the maximum issue age to ages younger than age 80, but in no event lower than age 55. We reserve the right to change the minimum or maximum issue ages on a nondiscriminatory basis. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is available for Contracts issued on and after August 20, 2007 (subject to availability and state approvals) that do not already have a living benefit rider. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will not be issued if the initial allocation to investment options is not in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below. The Company in its discretion may allow the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider to be elected after a contract has been issued without it, subject to certain conditions. Please contact our Customer Service Center for more information. Such election must be received in good order, including owner, annuitant, and beneficiary designations and compliance with the investment restrictions described below. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will be effective as of the following quarterly contract anniversary.

     Ownership, Annuitant, and Beneficiary Designation Requirements. Certain ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations are required in order to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. These designations depend upon whether the contract is issued as a nonqualified contract, an IRA or a custodial IRA. In all cases, the ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations must allow for the surviving spouse to continue the contract when the death benefit becomes payable, as provided by the Tax Code. Non-natural, custodial owners are only allowed with IRAs (“custodial IRAs”). Joint annuitants are not allowed. The necessary ownership, annuitant, and/or beneficiary designations are described below. Applications that do not meet the requirements below will be rejected. We reserve the right to verify the date of birth and social security number of both spouses.

     Nonqualified Contracts. For a jointly owned contract, the owners must be spouses, and the annuitant must be one of the owners. For a contract with only one owner, the owner’s spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary, and the annuitant must be one of the spouses.

     IRAs. There may only be one owner, who must also be the annuitant. The owner’s spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary.

     Custodial IRAs. While we do not maintain individual owner and beneficiary designations for IRAs held by an outside custodian, the ownership and beneficiary designations with the custodian must comply with the requirements listed in “IRAs,” above. The annuitant must be the same as the beneficial owner of the custodial IRA. We require the custodian to provide us the name and date of birth of both the owner and the owner’s spouse.

Rider Date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider date is the date the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider becomes effective. If you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider when the contract is issued, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider date is also the contract date.

Charge. 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 
2.50%  0.85% 

This quarterly charge is a percentage of the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base. 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 added after contract issue, the rider and charges will begin on the next following quarterly contract anniversary. The charge will be pro-rated when the rider is terminated. Charges are deducted through the date your rider enters either the Automatic Periodic Benefit Status or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Automatic Periodic Benefit Status or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs if your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions are met. The current charge can be subject to change upon a reset after your first five contract years. You will never pay more than the maximum annual charge.

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C. We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. If changed, the new charge will only apply to riders issued after the change.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you cancel the contract during the contract’s free look period (or otherwise cancel the contract pursuant to its terms), surrender or annuitize in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. These events automatically cancel the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

Termination. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you and your spouse while you are living and while your contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you:

1)      terminate your contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender, or begin receiving annuity payments in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider;
2)      die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die in the case of joint owners, or death of annuitant if the contract is a custodial IRA), unless your spouse elects to continue the contract (and your spouse is active for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider); or
3)      change the owner of the contract (other than a spousal continuation by an active spouse).

See “Change of Owner or Annuitant,” below. Other circumstances that may cause the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

     Active Status. Once the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has been issued, a spouse must remain in “active” status in order to exercise rights and receive the benefits of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider after the first spouse’s death by electing spousal continuation. In general, changes to the ownership, annuitant, and/or beneficiary designation requirements noted above will result in one spouse being designated as “inactive.” Inactive spouses are not eligible to continue the benefits of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider after the death of the other spouse. Once designated “inactive,” a spouse may not regain active status under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. Specific situations that will result in a spouse’s designation as “inactive” include the following:

1)      For nonqualified contracts where the spouses are joint owners, the removal of a joint owner (if that spouse does not automatically become sole primary beneficiary pursuant to the terms of the contract), or the change of one joint owner to a person other than an active spouse.
2)      For nonqualified contracts where one spouse is the owner and the other spouse is the sole primary beneficiary, as well as for IRA contracts (including custodial IRAs), the addition of a joint owner who is not also an active spouse or any change of beneficiary (including the addition of primary beneficiaries).
3)      In the event of the death of one spouse (in which case the deceased spouse becomes inactive).

An owner may also request that one spouse be treated as inactive. In the case of joint-owned contracts, both contract owners must agree to such a request. An inactive spouse is not eligible to exercise any rights or receive any benefits under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. However, all charges for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will continue to apply, even if one spouse becomes inactive, regardless of the reason. You should make sure you understand the impact of beneficiary and owner changes on the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider prior to requesting any such changes.

A divorce will terminate the ability of an ex-spouse to continue the contract. See “Divorce,” below.

     Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date of the first withdrawal, ONLY IF the quarterly contract anniversary following the youngest active spouse’s 65th birthday has not yet passed. While the ING LifePay Plus rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, withdrawals in a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will reduce the ING LifePay Plus Base dollar-for-dollar. This status will then continue until the earliest of:

1)      quarterly contract anniversary following the youngest active spouse’s 65th birthday, provided the contract owner does not decline the change to Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status;
2)      reduction of the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base to zero, at which time the rider will terminate;
3)      the annuity commencement date;
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J33


4)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
5)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (see “Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
6)      the surrender or annuitization of the Contract; or
7)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

Please note that withdrawals while the ING LifePay Plus rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status are not guaranteed for the lifetime of the annuitant.

     Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date of the first withdrawal, provided the quarterly contract anniversary following the youngest active spouse’s 65th birthday has passed. If the first withdrawal is taken prior to this date, then the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status will automatically begin on the quarterly contract anniversary following the youngest active spouse’s 65th birthday. This status continues until the earliest of:

1)      the annuity commencement date;
2)      reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
4)      the surrender of the contract; or
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners, or the annuitant, in the case of a custodial IRA), unless your active spouse beneficiary elects to continue the contract.

You will receive prior notice, of not less than 30 days, if you are in the Guaranteed Withdrawal Status and become eligible for the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This notice will explain the change, its impact to you and your options. You may decline this change. Automatic reset into the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status could result in a lower Maximum Annual Withdrawal. However, this action will also apply to all future resets (see below) and cannot be reversed. As described below, certain features of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider may differ depending upon whether you are in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

     How the ING Joint LifePay Plus Rider Works. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has two phases. The first phase, called the Growth Phase, begins on the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and ends as of the business day before the first withdrawal is taken (or when the annuity commencement date is reached). The second phase is called the Withdrawal Phase. This phase begins as of the date you take the first withdrawal of any kind under the contract (other than advisory fees, as described below), or the annuity commencement date, whichever occurs first.

Benefits paid under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider require the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base (referred to as the “MGWB Base” in the contract) is used to determine the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and is calculated as follows:

1)      If you purchased the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider on the contract date, the initial ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is equal to the initial premium.
2)      If you purchased the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider after the contract date, the initial ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is equal to the contract value on the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

During the Growth Phase, the initial ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is increased dollar-for-dollar by any premiums received (“eligible premiums”). In addition, on each quarterly contract anniversary, the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is recalculated as the greater of:

  • The current ING Joint LifePay Plus Base; or
  • The current Contract value. This is referred to as a quarterly “ratchet.”

Also, on each of the first ten contract anniversaries, the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is recalculated as the greatest of:

  • The current ING Joint LifePay Plus Base; or
  • The current Contract value; and
  • The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base on the previous contract anniversary, increased by 7%, plus any eligible premiums and minus any third-party investment advisory fees paid from your contract during the year. This is referred to as an annual “step-up.”

Please note that if this rider is added after the contract date, then the first opportunity for a step-up will be on the first contract anniversary following a complete contract year after the rider date.

The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base has no additional impact on the calculation of annuity payments or withdrawal benefits.

Currently, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are not eligible premiums for purposes of determining the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal; however, we reserve the right to treat such premiums as eligible premiums at our discretion, in a nondiscriminatory manner. Premiums received during the Withdrawal Phase do increase the contract value used to determine the reset Maximum Annual Withdrawal under the benefit reset feature of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider (see “ING Joint LifePay Plus Reset,” below). We reserve the right to discontinue allowing premium payments during the Withdrawal Phase.

     Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is determined on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins. It equals the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the greater of the contract value and the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base, as of the last day of the Growth Phase. The first withdrawal after the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider (which causes the end of the Growth Phase) is treated as occurring on the first day of the Withdrawal Phase, immediately after calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage, which varies by age of the youngest active spouse on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins, is as follows:

Youngest Active  Maximum Annual 
Spouse’s Age  Withdrawal Percentage 
0-75*  5%* 
76-80  6% 
81+  7% 

*If the Withdrawal Phase begins before the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the younger spouse reaches age 65, withdrawals in a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will reduce the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base dollar-for-dollar, under what we refer to as the “Standard Withdrawal Benefit.” Then, on the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the younger spouse reaches age 65, the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base will automatically be reset to the current Contract value, if greater, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be recalculated.

Once determined the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage never changes for the contract. This is important to keep in mind in deciding when to take your first withdrawal because the younger you are at that time, the lower the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage.

If the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while you are in the ING LifePay Plus rider’s Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, then you may elect a life only annuity option, in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options, under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, provided that, if both spouses are active, payments under the life only annuity option will be calculated using the joint life expectancy table for both spouses. If only one spouse is active, payments will be calculated using the single life expectancy table for the active spouse.

Withdrawals in a contract year that do not exceed the Maximum Withdrawal Amount do not reduce the Maximum Withdrawal Amount. However, if withdrawals in any contract year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (an “excess withdrawal”), the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. This means that both the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced by the same proportion as the excess withdrawal is of the contract value determined after the deduction the amount withdrawn up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal but before deduction of the excess withdrawal.

<R>

When a withdrawal is made, the total withdrawals taken in a contract year are compared with the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal. To the extent that the withdrawal taken causes the total withdrawals in that year to exceed the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal, that withdrawal is considered excess. For purposes of determining whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded, any applicable Market Value Adjustment or surrender charges will not be considered. However, for purposes of determining the Maximum Annual Withdrawal reduction after an excess withdrawal, surrender charges and/or Market Value Adjustment are considered to be part of the withdrawal, and will be included in the pro-rata adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. See Illustrations 1 and 2 at the end of this appendix for examples of this concept.

</R>

     Required Minimum Distributions. Withdrawals taken from the contract to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code are considered withdrawals for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, and will begin the Withdrawal Phase if the Withdrawal Phase has not already started. Any such withdrawal which exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for a specific contract year will not be deemed excess withdrawals in that contract year for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, subject to the following:

1)      If the contract owner’s Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to the contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
2)      You may withdraw the Additional Withdrawal Amount from this contract without it being deemed an excess withdrawal.
3)      Any withdrawals taken in a contract year will count first against the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year.
4)      Once the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current contract year has been taken, additional amounts withdrawn in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will count first against and reduce any unused Additional Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount for the current contract year.
5)      Withdrawals that exceed all available Additional Withdrawal Amounts are excess withdrawals and will reduce the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on a pro-rata basis, as described above.
6)      The Additional Withdrawal Amount is reset to zero at the end of the second calendar year from which it was originally calculated.
7)      If the contract is still in the Growth Phase on the date the Additional Withdrawal Amount is determined, but enters the Withdrawal Phase later during that calendar year, the Additional
<R>

Withdrawal Amount will be equal to the amount in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount necessary to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution for that year (if any).

<R>

See Illustration 3 at the end of this appendix.

</R>

     Investment Advisory Fees. Withdrawals taken pursuant to a program established by the owner for the payment of investment advisory fees to a named third party investment adviser for advice on management of the contract’s values will not cause the Withdrawal Phase to begin. During the Growth Phase, such withdrawals reduce the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base on a dollar-for-dollar basis, and during the Withdrawal Phase, these withdrawals are treated as any other withdrawal.

     Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the Contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal while the rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the rider will enter Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are entitled to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, until the remaining ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is exhausted.

When the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1)      the Contract will provide no further benefits other than as provided under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider;
2)      no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3)      any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will continue until the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is reduced to zero, at which time the rider will terminate without value.

The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full Contract year following the date the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter. If, at the time the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-Contract year or Contract year, as applicable.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the contract and the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will terminate due to the pro-rata reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above.

If the contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal while the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will enter Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are no longer entitled to make withdrawals. Instead, under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider you will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

When the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1)      the contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider;
2)      no further premium payments will be accepted; and
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J37


3) any other riders attached to the contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The time period for which we will make these payments will depend upon whether one or two spouses are active under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider at the time this status begins. If both spouses are active under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, these payments will cease upon the death of the second spouse, at which time both the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and the contract will terminate without further value. If only one spouse is active under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, the payments will cease upon the death of the active spouse, at which time both the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and the contract will terminate without value.

If the Maximum Annual Withdrawal exceeds the net withdrawals taken the contract year when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status (including the withdrawal that results in the contract value decreasing to zero), that difference will be paid immediately to the contract owner. The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full contract year following the date the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the contract. Under a systematic withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-contract year or contract year, as applicable.

<R>

     ING Joint LifePay Plus Reset. Once the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been determined, on each quarterly contract anniversary we will increase (or “reset”) the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base to the current Contract value, if the Contract value is higher. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal will also be recalculated, and the remaining portion of the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be available for withdrawal immediately. This reset ONLY occurs when the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, and is automatic.

</R>

We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider with a reset. In this event, you will receive prior notice, of not less than 30 days, which explains the change, its impact to you and your options. You may decline this change (and the reset). However, this action will apply to all future resets and cannot be reversed.

     Investment Option Restrictions. In order to mitigate the insurance risk inherent in our guarantee to provide you and your spouse with lifetime payments (subject to the terms and restrictions of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider), we require that your contract value be allocated in accordance with certain limitations. In general, to the extent that you choose not to invest in the Accepted Funds, we require that 20% of the amount not so invested be invested in the Fixed Allocation Funds. We will require this allocation regardless of your investment instructions to the contract, as described below.

<R>

While the ING Joint LifePay Plus 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 20% of such contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds. See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below.

ESII - 152940

</R>

J39


<R>

You may allocate contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.

</R>

     Other Funds. All portfolios available under the contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

     Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than 20% of the total contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Date, we will automatically rebalance the contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that 20% of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis among the Other Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on each contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you; and
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.”

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in them. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your contract value reallocated in this manner.

     Divorce. Generally, in the event of a divorce, the spouse who retains ownership of the contract will continue to be entitled to all rights and benefits of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, while the ex-spouse will no longer have any such rights or be entitled to any such benefits. In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider continues, and terminates upon the death of the owner (first owner in the case of joint owners, or the annuitant in the case of a custodial IRA). Although spousal continuation may be available under the Tax Code for a subsequent spouse, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider cannot be continued by the new spouse. As the result of the divorce, we may be required to withdraw assets for the benefit of an ex-spouse. Any such withdrawal will be considered a withdrawal for purposes of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount. In other words, if a withdrawal incident to a divorce exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount, it will be considered an excess withdrawal. See “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above. As noted, in the event of a divorce there is no change to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and we will continue to deduct charges for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, there will be no change to the periodic payments made. Payments will continue until both spouses are deceased.

     Death of Owner. The death of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner, or for custodial IRAs, the annuitant) may cause the termination of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and its charges, depending upon whether one or both spouses are in active status at the time of death, as described below.

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J40


<R>
1)      If both spouses are in active status: If the surviving spouse elects to continue the contract and becomes the sole owner and annuitant, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will remain in effect pursuant to its original terms and ING Joint LifePay Plus coverage and charges will continue. As of the date the contract is continued, the Joint LifePay Plus Base will be reset to the current Contact value, if greater, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will recalculated as the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the new Joint LifePay Plus Base on the date the contract is continued.
  However, under no circumstances will this recalculation result in a reduction to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
  If the surviving spouse elects not to continue the contract, ING Joint LifePay Plus rider coverage and charges will cease upon the earlier of payment of the death benefit or notice that an alternative distribution option has been chosen.
2)      If the surviving spouse is in inactive status: The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider terminates and ING Joint LifePay Plus coverage and charges cease upon the date of death of the last Active Spouse.
</R>

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. Other than as a result of spousal continuation, you may not change the annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and rider charges will terminate upon change of owner, including adding an additional owner, except for the following ownership changes:

1)      spousal continuation by an active spouse, as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual (in order to avoid the owner’s spouse from being designated inactive, the owner’s spouse must be named sole beneficiary under the contract);
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      for nonqualified contracts only, the addition of a joint owner, provided that the additional joint owner is the original owner’s spouse and is active when added as joint owner;
7)      for nonqualified contracts, removal of a joint owner, provided the removed joint owner is active and becomes the primary contract beneficiary; and
8)      change of owner where the owner becomes the sole primary beneficiary and the sole primary beneficiary becomes the owner if both were active spouses at the time of the change.

     Surrender Charges. If you elect the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, your withdrawals will be subject to surrender charges if they exceed the free withdrawal amount. However, once your contract value is zero, the periodic payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider are not subject to surrender charges, nor will these amounts be subject to any other charges under the contract.

     Federal Tax Considerations. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

ING LifePay Plus and ING Joint LifePay Plus Partial Withdrawal Amount Examples. The following are examples of adjustments to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal:

Illustration 1: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including surrender and/or MVA charges.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $500 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $300 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $200 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, then there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $7,000 ($3,000 + $500 + $1,500 + $300 + $1,500 + $200). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal ($7,000 - $5,000 = $2,000), and the amount of the current gross withdrawal ($1,500 + 200 = $1,700.

If the Account Value before this withdrawal is $50,000, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 3.40% ($1,700 / $50,000) to $4,830 ((1 - 3.40%) * $5,000).

Illustration 2: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000, and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $1,500.

If the Account Value after the part of the gross withdrawal that was within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $500, is $49,500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 2.02% ($1,000 / $49,500) to $4,899 ((1 - 2.02%) * $5,000).

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

J42


Illustration 3: A withdrawal exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount but does not exceed the Additional Withdrawal Amount.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. The Required Minimum Distribution for the current calendar year applicable to this contract is determined to be $6,000. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of this amount above the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000).

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. Total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, however, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not adjusted until the Additional Withdrawal Amount is exhausted. The amount by which total net withdrawals taken exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000), is the same as the Additional Withdrawal Amount, so no adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is made. If total net withdrawals taken had exceeded the sum of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional Withdrawal Amount, then an adjustment would be made to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Illustration 4: The Reset Occurs.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000 and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage is 5%.

One year after the first withdrawal is taken, the contract value has increased to $120,000, and the Reset occurs. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is now $6,000 ($120,000 * 5%).

One year after the Reset, the contract value has increased further to $130,000. The Reset occurs again, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is now $6,500 ($130,000 * 5%).

  APPENDIX K

ING LifePay and ING Joint LifePay

(Available for Contracts issued through August 20, 2007, subject to state approval.)

ING LifePay Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay”) Rider. The ING LifePay rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of the annuitant, even if these withdrawals deplete your Contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are concerned that you may outlive your income.

     Purchase. In order to elect the ING LifePay rider, the annuitant must be the owner or one of the owners, unless the owner is a non-natural owner. Joint annuitants are not allowed. The minimum issue age is 50 and the maximum issue age is 80. The issue age is the age of the owner (or the annuitant if there are joint owners or the owner is non-natural) on the Contract anniversary on which the rider is effective. But some broker-dealers may limit the availability of the rider to younger ages. The ING LifePay rider is available for Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 (subject to availability) that do not already have a living benefit rider. The ING LifePay rider will not be issued if the initial allocation to investment options is not in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below. The Company in its discretion may allow the rider to be elected during the 30-day period preceding a Contract anniversary. Such election must be received in good order, including compliance with the investment restrictions described below. The rider will be effective as of that Contract anniversary.

Rider Date. The rider date is the date the ING LifePay rider becomes effective. If you purchase the ING LifePay rider when the Contract is issued, the rider date is also the Contract date.

Charge. The charge for the ING LifePay rider, a living benefit, is deducted quarterly and is a percentage of contract value:

Maximum Annual Charge  Current Annual Charge 
1.20%  0.50% 

We deduct the quarterly 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 added after contract issue, the charges will still be deducted on quarterly contract anniversaries, but the first charge will be pro-rated based on what is owed at the time the rider is added through the contract quarter end. Similarly, the charge is pro-rated when the rider is terminated. Charges are deducted during the period starting on the rider date and up to your rider’s Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs if your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions are met. The charge may be subject to change if you elect the reset option after your first five contract years, but subject to the maximum annual charge.

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C. We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. If changed, the new charge will only apply to riders issued after the change.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING LifePay rider, you may not cancel it unless you cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period, surrender, annuitize or otherwise terminate the Contract. These events automatically cancel the ING LifePay rider.

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

K1


Termination. The ING LifePay rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you:

1)      annuitize, surrender or otherwise terminate your Contract during the accumulation phase; or
2)      die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

The ING LifePay rider will also terminate if there is a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation on your death). Other circumstances that may cause the ING LifePay rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

     Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date the rider is issued (the “effective date of the rider”) and continues until the earliest of:

1)      the annuity commencement date;
2)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
3)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
4)      the surrender or annuitization of the Contract; or
5)      the death of the owner, or first owner, in the case of joint owners, unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

As described below, certain features of the ING LifePay rider may differ depending upon whether you are in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

     How the ING LifePay Rider Works. The ING LifePay Withdrawal Benefit rider has two phases. The first phase, called the Growth Phase, begins on the effective date of the rider and ends as of the business day before the first withdrawal is taken (or when the annuity commencement date is reached). The second phase is called the Withdrawal Phase. This phase begins as of the date of the first withdrawal or the annuity commencement date, whichever occurs first.

Benefits paid under the ING LifePay rider require the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The ING LifePay Base (referred to as the “MGWB Base” in the Contract) is used to determine the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and is calculated as follows.

1)      If you purchased the ING LifePay rider on the Contract date, the initial ING LifePay Base is equal to the initial premium.
2)      If you purchased the ING LifePay rider after the Contract date, the initial ING LifePay Base is equal to the Contract value on the effective date of the rider.

The initial ING LifePay Base is increased dollar-for-dollar by any premiums received during the Growth Phase (“eligible premiums”). The ING LifePay Base is also increased to equal the Contract value if the Contract value is greater than the current ING LifePay Base, on each Contract quarterly anniversary after the effective date of the rider and during the Growth Phase. The ING LifePay Base has no additional impact on the calculation of annuity payments or withdrawal benefits.

Currently, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are not eligible premiums for purposes of determining the ING LifePay Base or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal; however, we reserve the right to treat such premiums as eligible premiums at our discretion, in a nondiscriminatory manner. Premiums received during the Withdrawal Phase do increase the Contract value used to determine the reset Maximum Annual Withdrawal if you choose to reset the ING LifePay rider (see “ING LifePay Reset Option,” below). We reserve the right to discontinue allowing premium payments during the Withdrawal Phase.

<R>

     Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is determined on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins. It equals a percentage of the greater of 1) the Contract value and 2) the ING LifePay Base as of the last day of the Growth Phase. The first withdrawal after the effective date of the rider (which causes the end of the Growth Phase) is treated as occurring on the first day of the Withdrawal Phase, after calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage, which varies by age of the annuitant on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins, is as follows:

</R>
  Maximum Annual 
Annuitant Age  Withdrawal Percentage 
50-59  4% 
60-75  5% 
76-80  6% 
81+  7% 

Once determined, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage never changes for the Contract, except as provided for under spousal continuation. See “Continuation After Death – Spouse,” below. This is important to keep in mind in deciding when to take your first withdrawal because the younger you are at that time, the lower the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage.

If the rider is in the Growth Phase, and the annuity commencement date is reached, the rider will enter the Withdrawal Phase and will be annuitized. In lieu of the annuity options under the Contract, you may elect a life only annuity option under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

If withdrawals in any Contract year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. This means that the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced by the same proportion as the withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (the “excess withdrawal”) is of the Contract value determined:

1)      before the withdrawal, for the excess withdrawal; and
2)      after the withdrawal, for the amount withdrawn up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (without regard to the excess withdrawal).

When a withdrawal is made, the total withdrawals taken in a Contract year are compared with the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal. To the extent that the withdrawal taken causes the total withdrawals in that year to exceed the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal, that withdrawal is considered excess. For purposes of determining whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded, any applicable Market Value Adjustment or surrender charges will not be applied to the withdrawal. However, for purposes of determining the Maximum Annual Withdrawal reduction after an excess withdrawal, any surrender charges and/or Market Value Adjustment are considered to be part of the withdrawal. See Illustration 1 and 2 below for examples of this concept.

<R>

ESII - 152940

     Required Minimum Distributions. Withdrawals taken from the Contract to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code, that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for a specific Contract year, will not be deemed excess withdrawals in that Contract year for purposes of the ING LifePay rider, subject to the following rules:

1)      If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
2)      You may withdraw the Additional Withdrawal Amount from this Contract without it being deemed an excess withdrawal.
3)      Any withdrawals taken in a Contract year will count first against the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that Contract year.
4)      Once the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year has been taken, additional amounts withdrawn in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will count against and reduce any Additional Withdrawal Amount.
5)      Withdrawals that exceed the Additional Withdrawal Amount are excess withdrawals and will reduce the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on a pro-rata basis, as described above.
6)      The Additional Withdrawal Amount is reset to zero at the end of each calendar year, and remains at zero until it is reset in January of the following calendar year, even if, pursuant to the Tax Code, the contract owner may take a Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year after the end of the calendar year.
7)      If the Contract is still in the Growth Phase on the date the Additional Withdrawal Amount is determined, but enters the Withdrawal Phase later during that calendar year, the Additional Withdrawal Amount will be equal to the amount in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal necessary to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution for that year (if any).

See Illustration 3 below.

     Investment Advisory Fees. Withdrawals taken pursuant to a program established by the owner for the payment of investment advisory fees to a named third party investment adviser for advice on management of the Contract’s values will not cause the Withdrawal Phase to begin. During the Growth Phase, such withdrawals reduce the ING LifePay Base on a pro-rata basis, and during the Withdrawal Phase, these withdrawals are treated as any other withdrawal.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the Contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Contract and the rider will terminate due to the pro-rata reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above.

If the Contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal while the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the rider will enter Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are entitled to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1)      the Contract will provide no further benefits other than as provided under the ING LifePay rider;
2)      no further premium payments will be accepted; and
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

K4


3) any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the annuitant at which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the annuitant’s death.

The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full Contract year following the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter. If, at the time the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-Contract year or Contract year, as applicable.

     ING LifePay Reset Option. Beginning one year after the Withdrawal Phase begins, you may choose to reset the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, if the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage of the Contract value would be greater than your current Maximum Annual Withdrawal. You must elect to reset by a request in a form satisfactory to us. On the date the request is received (the “Reset Effective Date”), the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will increase to be equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage of the Contract value on the Reset Effective Date. The reset option is only available when the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

After exercising the reset option, you must wait one year before electing to reset again. We will not accept a request to reset if the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal on the date the request is received would be less than your current Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

<R>

If the reset option is exercised, the charge for the ING LifePay rider will be equal to the charge then in effect for a newly purchased rider but will not exceed the maximum annual charge of 1.20%. However, we guarantee that the rider charge will not increase for resets exercised within the first five contract years. See Illustration 4 at the end of this appendix.

</R>

     Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING LifePay 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 20% of such Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds. See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below.

<R>

Accepted Funds. Currently, the Accepted Funds are:

BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund
ING American Funds Asset Allocation Portfolio
ING American Funds World Allocation Portfolio
ING LifeStyle Conservative Portfolio
ING LifeStyle Growth Portfolio
ING LifeStyle Moderate Growth Portfolio

ING LifeStyle Moderate Portfolio
ING Liquid Assets Portfolio

ING MFS Total Return Portfolio
ING Oppenheimer Active Allocation Portfolio
ING Russell Global Large Cap Index 75% Portfolio
ING T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio
ING Van Kampen Equity and Income Portfolio
ING Van Kampen Global Tactical Asset Allocation

Fixed Interest Allocation

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

ING Franklin Templeton Founding Strategy Portfolio ING Global Equity Option Portfolio

ING WisdomTreeSM Global High-Yielding Equity Index Portfolio

ESII - 152940

</R>

K5


<R> </R>

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.

<R>

Fixed Allocation Funds. Currently, the Fixed Allocation Funds are:

ING American Funds Bond Portfolio
ING BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio
ING U.S. Bond Index Portfolio

ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio
ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio

You may allocate your contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.

</R>

If the rider is not continued under the spousal continuation right when available, the Fixed Allocation Fund will be reclassified as a Special Fund as of the Contract continuation date if it would otherwise be designated as a Special Fund for purposes of the Contract’s death benefits.

For purposes of calculating any applicable death benefit guaranteed under the Contract, any allocation of Contract value to the Fixed Allocation Funds will be considered a Covered Fund allocation while the rider is in effect.

<R>

ESII - 152940

     Other Funds. All portfolios available under the Contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

     Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than 20% of the total Contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any ING LifePay Rebalancing Date, we will automatically rebalance the Contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that 20% of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis among the Other Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING LifePay Rebalancing Dates occur on each Contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you;
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.”

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in them. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING LifePay rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING LifePay rider if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay rider and charges terminate on the earlier of:

1)      if the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal status, the date of receipt of due proof of death (“claim date”) of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner) or the annuitant if there is a non-natural owner; or
2)      the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit status.

     Continuation After Death – Spouse. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue, provided the following conditions are met:

1)      The spouse is at least 50 years old on the date the Contract is continued; and
2)      The spouse becomes the annuitant and sole owner.

If the rider is in the Growth Phase at the time of spousal continuation:

1)      The rider will continue in the Growth Phase;
2)      On the date the rider is continued, the ING LifePay Base will be reset to equal the greater of the ING LifePay Base and the then current Contract value;
3)      The ING LifePay charges will restart and be the same as were in effect prior to the claim date; and
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

K7


4)      The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage will be determined as of the date of the first withdrawal, whenever it occurs, and will be based on the spouse’s age on that date.

If the rider is in the Withdrawal Phase at the time of spousal continuation:

1)      The rider will continue in the Withdrawal Phase.
2)      On the Contract anniversary following the date the rider is continued:
  (a)      If the surviving spouse was not the annuitant before the owner’s death, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated by multiplying the Contract value on that Contract anniversary by the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage based on the surviving spouse’s age on that Contract anniversary, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is considered to be zero from the claim date to that Contract anniversary. Withdrawals are permitted pursuant to the other provisions of the Contract. Withdrawals causing the Contract value to fall to zero will terminate the Contract and the rider.
  (b)      If the surviving spouse was the annuitant before the owner’s death, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated as the greater of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on the claim date (adjusted for excess withdrawals thereafter) and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal resulting from multiplying the Contract value on that Contract anniversary by the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal does not go to zero on the claim date and withdrawals may continue under the rider provisions.
3)      The rider charges will restart on the Contract anniversary following the date the rider is continued and
  will      be the same as were in effect prior to the claim date.

     Effect of ING LifePay Rider on Death Benefit. If you die before Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status begins under the ING LifePay rider, the death benefit is payable, but the rider terminates. However, if the beneficiary is the owner’s spouse, and the spouse elects to continue the Contract, the death benefit is not payable until the spouse’s death. Thus, you should not purchase this rider with multiple owners, unless the owners are spouses. See “Death of Owner or Annuitant” and “Continuation After Death – Spouse,” above for further information.

While in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if the owner who is not the annuitant dies, we will continue to pay the periodic payments that the owner was receiving under the ING LifePay rider to the annuitant. While in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if an owner who is also the annuitant dies, the periodic payments will stop. No other death benefit is payable.

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. Other than as provided above under “Continuation After Death - Spouse,” you may not change the annuitant. The rider and rider charges will terminate upon change of owner, including adding an additional owner, except for the following ownership changes:

1)      spousal continuation as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual;
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      change in trust as owner where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual;

7)      change of owner from an individual to a trust where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual; and
8)      change of owner from a trust to an individual where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual.

     Surrender Charges. If you elect the ING LifePay rider, your withdrawals will be subject to surrender charges if they exceed the free withdrawal amount. However, once your Contract value is zero, the periodic payments under the ING LifePay rider are not subject to surrender charges.

     Loans. The portion of any Contract value used to pay off an outstanding loan balance will reduce the ING LifePay Base or Maximum Annual Withdrawal as applicable. We do not recommend the ING LifePay rider if loans are contemplated.

     Taxation. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING LifePay Rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

ING Joint LifePay Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay”) Rider. The ING Joint LifePay rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of both you and your spouse, even if these withdrawals deplete your contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are married and are concerned that you and your spouse may outlive your income.

     Purchase. The ING Joint LifePay rider is only available for purchase by individuals who are married at the time of purchase and eligible to elect spousal continuation (as defined by the Tax Code) when the death benefit becomes payable. We refer to these individuals as spouses. Certain ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations are required in order to purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider. See “Ownership, Annuitant, and Beneficiary Requirements,” below.

The minimum issue age is 55 and the maximum issue age is 80. Both spouses must meet these issue age requirements on the contract anniversary on which the ING Joint LifePay rider is effective. The issue age is the age of the owners on the Contract anniversary on which the rider is effective. Some broker dealers may limit the maximum issue age to ages younger than age 80, but in no event lower than age 55. We reserve the right to change the minimum or maximum issue ages on a nondiscriminatory basis. The ING Joint LifePay rider is available for Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 (subject to availability) that do not already have a living benefit rider. The ING Joint LifePay rider will not be issued if the initial allocation to investment options is not in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below. For Contracts with the ING LifePay rider, you may elect the ING Joint LifePay rider in place of the ING LifePay rider for a limited time. For more information, please contact our Customer Service Center. The Company in its discretion may allow the ING Joint LifePay rider to be elected during the 30-day period preceding a contract anniversary. Such election must be received in good order, including owner, annuitant, and beneficiary designations and compliance with the investment restrictions described below. The ING Joint LifePay rider will be effective as of that contract anniversary.

     Ownership, Annuitant, and Beneficiary Designation Requirements. Certain ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations are required in order to purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider. These designations depend upon whether the contract is issued as a nonqualified contract, an IRA or a custodial IRA. In all cases, the ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations must allow for the surviving spouse to continue the contract when the death benefit becomes payable, as provided by the Tax Code. Non-natural, custodial owners are only allowed with IRAs (“custodial IRAs”). Joint annuitants are not allowed. The necessary ownership, annuitant, and/or beneficiary designations are described below. Applications that do not meet the requirements below will be rejected. We reserve the right to verify the date of birth and social security number of both spouses.

     Nonqualified Contracts. For a jointly owned contract, the owners must be spouses, and the annuitant must be one of the owners. For a contract with only one owner, the owner’s spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary, and the annuitant must be one of the spouses.

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

K9


     IRAs. There may only be one owner, who must also be the annuitant. The owner’s spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary.

     Custodial IRAs. While we do not maintain individual owner and beneficiary designations for IRAs held by an outside custodian, the ownership and beneficiary designations with the custodian must comply with the requirements listed in “IRAs,” above. The annuitant must be the same as the beneficial owner of the custodial IRA. We require the custodian to provide us the name and date of birth of both the owner and the owner’s spouse.

Rider Date. The ING Joint LifePay rider date is the date the ING Joint LifePay rider becomes effective. If you purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider when the contract is issued, the ING Joint LifePay rider date is also the contract date.

Charge. The charge for the ING Joint LifePay rider, a living benefit, is deducted quarterly, and is a percentage of contract value:

Maximum Annual Charge  Current Annual Charge 
1.50%  0.75% 

We deduct the quarterly 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 added after contract issue, the charges will still be deducted on quarterly contract anniversaries, but the first charge will be pro-rated based on what is owed at the time the rider is added through the contract quarter end. Similarly, the charge is pro-rated when the rider is terminated. Charges are deducted during the period starting on the rider date and up to your rider’s Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs if your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions are met. The charge may be subject to change if you elect the reset option after your first five contract years, but subject to the maximum annual charge.

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C. We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. If changed, the new charge will only apply to riders issued after the change.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider, you may not cancel it unless you cancel the contract during the contract’s free look period (or otherwise cancel the contract pursuant to its terms), surrender or annuitize in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay rider. These events automatically cancel the ING Joint LifePay rider.

Termination. The ING Joint LifePay rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you and your spouse while you are living and while your contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you:

1)      terminate your contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender, or begin receiving annuity payments in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay rider;
2)      die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die in the case of joint owners, or death of annuitant if the contract is a custodial IRA), unless your spouse elects to continue the contract (and your spouse is active for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay rider); or
3)      change the owner of the contract (other than a spousal continuation by an active spouse).
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

K10


See “Change of Owner or Annuitant,” below. Other circumstances that may cause the ING Joint LifePay rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

     Active Status. Once the ING Joint LifePay rider has been issued, a spouse must remain in “active” status in order to exercise rights and receive the benefits of the ING Joint LifePay rider after the first spouse’s death by electing spousal continuation. In general, changes to the ownership, annuitant, and/or beneficiary designation requirements noted above will result in one spouse being designated as “inactive.” Inactive spouses are not eligible to continue the benefits of the ING Joint LifePay rider after the death of the other spouse. Once designated “inactive,” a spouse may not regain active status under the ING Joint LifePay rider. Specific situations that will result in a spouse’s designation as “inactive” include the following:

1)      For nonqualified contracts where the spouses are joint owners, the removal of a joint owner (if that spouse does not automatically become sole primary beneficiary pursuant to the terms of the contract), or the change of one joint owner to a person other than an active spouse.
2)      For nonqualified contracts where one spouse is the owner and the other spouse is the sole primary beneficiary, as well as for IRA contracts (including custodial IRAs), the addition of a joint owner who is not also an active spouse or any change of beneficiary (including the addition of primary beneficiaries).
3)      In the event of the death of one spouse (in which case the deceased spouse becomes inactive).

An owner may also request that one spouse be treated as inactive. In the case of joint-owned contracts, both contract owners must agree to such a request. An inactive spouse is not eligible to exercise any rights or receive any benefits under the ING Joint LifePay rider. However, all charges for the ING Joint LifePay rider will continue to apply, even if one spouse becomes inactive, regardless of the reason. You should make sure you understand the impact of beneficiary and owner changes on the ING Joint LifePay rider prior to requesting any such changes.

A divorce will terminate the ability of an ex-spouse to continue the contract. See “Divorce,” below.

     Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date the ING Joint LifePay rider is issued (the “effective date of the ING Joint LifePay rider”) and continues until the earliest of:

1)      the annuity commencement date;
2)      reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
4)      the surrender of the contract; or
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners, or the annuitant, in the case of a custodial IRA), unless your active spouse beneficiary elects to continue the contract.

As described below, certain features of the ING Joint LifePay rider may differ depending upon whether you are in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

     How the ING Joint LifePay Rider Works. The ING Joint LifePay rider has two phases. The first phase, called the Growth Phase, begins on the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay rider and ends as of the business day before the first withdrawal is taken (or when the annuity commencement date is reached). The second phase is called the Withdrawal Phase. This phase begins as of the date you take the first withdrawal of any kind under the contract (other than advisory fees, as described below), or the annuity commencement date, whichever occurs first. During the accumulation phase of the contract, the ING Joint LifePay rider may be in either the Growth Phase or the

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

K11


Withdrawal Phase. During the income phase of the contract, the ING Joint LifePay rider may only be in the Withdrawal Phase. The ING Joint LifePay rider is initially in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. While in this status you may terminate the ING Joint LifePay rider by electing to enter the income phase and begin receiving annuity payments. However, if you have not elected to begin receiving annuity payments, and the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status because the contract value has been reduced to zero, the ING Joint LifePay rider and contract terminate (other than those provisions regarding the payment of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, as described below) and you can no longer elect to receive annuity payments.

Benefits paid under the ING Joint LifePay rider require the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The ING Joint LifePay Base (referred to as the “MGWB Base” in the contract) is used to determine the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and is calculated as follows:

1)      If you purchased the ING Joint LifePay rider on the contract date, the initial ING Joint LifePay Base is equal to the initial premium.
2)      If you purchased the ING Joint LifePay rider after the contract date, the initial ING Joint LifePay Base is equal to the contract value on the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay rider.
3)      The initial ING Joint LifePay Base is increased dollar-for-dollar by any premiums received during the Growth Phase (“eligible premiums”). The ING Joint LifePay Base is also increased to equal the contract value if the contract value is greater than the current ING Joint LifePay Base, valued on each quarterly contract anniversary after the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay rider during the Growth Phase. The ING Joint LifePay Base has no additional impact on the calculation of annuity payments or withdrawal benefits.

Currently, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are not eligible premiums for purposes of determining the ING Joint LifePay Base or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal; however, we reserve the right to treat such premiums as eligible premiums at our discretion, in a nondiscriminatory manner. Premiums received during the Withdrawal Phase do increase the contract value used to determine the reset Maximum Annual Withdrawal if you choose to reset the ING Joint LifePay rider (see “ING Joint LifePay Reset Option,” below). We reserve the right to discontinue allowing premium payments during the Withdrawal Phase.

     Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is determined on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins. It equals the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the greater of the contract value and the ING Joint LifePay Base, as of the last day of the Growth Phase. The first withdrawal after the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay rider (which causes the end of the Growth Phase) is treated as occurring on the first day of the Withdrawal Phase, immediately after calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage, which varies by age of the youngest active spouse on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins, is as follows:

  Maximum Annual 
Annuitant Age  Withdrawal Percentage 
55-64  4% 
65-75  5% 
76-80  6% 
81+  7% 

Once determined the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage never changes for the contract. This is important to keep in mind in deciding when to take your first withdrawal because the younger you are at that time, the lower the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage.

If the ING Joint LifePay rider is in the Growth Phase, and the annuity commencement date is reached, the ING Joint LifePay rider will enter the Withdrawal Phase and annuity payments will begin. In lieu of the annuity options under the Contract, you may elect a life only annuity option under which we will pay the greater of the

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

K12


annuity payout under the Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, provided that, if both spouses are active, payments under the life only annuity option will be calculated using the joint life expectancy table for both spouses. If only one spouse is active, payments will be calculated using the single life expectancy table for the active spouse.

Withdrawals in a contract year that do not exceed the Maximum Withdrawal Amount do not reduce the Maximum Withdrawal Amount. However, if withdrawals in any contract year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (an “excess withdrawal”), the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. This means that the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced by the same proportion as the excess withdrawal is of the contract value determined after the deduction the amount withdrawn up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal but before deduction of the excess withdrawal.

When a withdrawal is made, the total withdrawals taken in a contract year are compared with the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal. To the extent that the withdrawal taken causes the total withdrawals in that year to exceed the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal, that withdrawal is considered excess. For purposes of determining whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded, any applicable Market Value Adjustment or surrender charges will not be considered. However, for purposes of determining the Maximum Annual Withdrawal reduction after an excess withdrawal, surrender charges and/or Market Value Adjustment are considered to be part of the withdrawal, and will be included in the pro-rata adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. See Illustration 1 and 2 below for examples of this concept.

Withdrawals taken from the contract to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code are considered withdrawals for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay rider, and will begin the Withdrawal Phase if the Withdrawal Phase has not already started. Any such withdrawal which exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for a specific contract year will not be deemed excess withdrawals in that contract year for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay rider, subject to the following:

1)      If the contract owner’s Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to the contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
2)      You may withdraw the Additional Withdrawal Amount from this contract without it being deemed an excess withdrawal.
3)      Any withdrawals taken in a contract year will count first against the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year.
4)      Once the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current contract year has been taken, additional amounts withdrawn in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will count against and reduce any Additional Withdrawal Amount.
5)      Withdrawals that exceed the Additional Withdrawal Amount are excess withdrawals and will reduce the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on a pro-rata basis, as described above.
6)      The Additional Withdrawal Amount is reset to zero at the end of each calendar year, and remains at zero until it is reset in January of the following calendar year, even if, pursuant to the Tax Code, the contract owner may take a Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year after the end of the calendar year.
7)      If the contract is still in the Growth Phase on the date the Additional Withdrawal Amount is determined, but enters the Withdrawal Phase later during that calendar year, the Additional Withdrawal Amount will be equal to the amount in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount necessary to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution for that year (if any).

See Illustration 3 below.

     Investment Advisory Fees. Withdrawals taken pursuant to a program established by the owner for the payment of investment advisory fees to a named third party investment adviser for advice on management of the contract’s values will not cause the Withdrawal Phase to begin. During the Growth Phase, such withdrawals reduce the ING Joint LifePay Base on a pro-rata basis, and during the Withdrawal Phase, these withdrawals are treated as any other withdrawal.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the contract and the ING Joint LifePay rider will terminate due to the pro-rata reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above.

If the contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal while the ING Joint LifePay rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the ING Joint LifePay rider will enter Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are no longer entitled to make withdrawals. Instead, under the ING Joint LifePay rider you will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

When the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1)      the contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under the ING Joint LifePay rider;
2)      no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3)      any other riders attached to the contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The time period for which we will make these payments will depend upon whether one or two spouses are active under the ING Joint LifePay rider at the time this status begins. If both spouses are active under the ING Joint LifePay rider, these payments will cease upon the death of the second spouse, at which time both the ING Joint LifePay rider and the contract will terminate without further value. If only one spouse is active under the ING Joint LifePay rider, the payments will cease upon the death of the active spouse, at which time both the ING Joint LifePay rider and the contract will terminate without value.

If the Maximum Annual Withdrawal exceeds the net withdrawals taken the contract year when the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status (including the withdrawal that results in the contract value decreasing to zero), that difference will be paid immediately to the contract owner. The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full contract year following the date the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the contract. Under a systematic withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-contract year or contract year, as applicable.

     ING Joint LifePay Reset Option. Beginning one year after the Withdrawal Phase begins, you may choose to reset the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, if the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the contract value would be greater than your current Maximum Annual Withdrawal. You must elect to reset by a request in a form satisfactory to us. On the date the request is received (the “Reset Effective Date”), the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will increase to be equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the contract

<R>

K14


value on the Reset Effective Date. The reset option is only available when the ING Joint LifePay rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. We reserve the right to limit resets to the contract anniversary.

After exercising the reset option, you must wait one year before electing to reset again. We will not accept a request to reset if the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal on the date the request is received would be less than your current Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

<R>

If the reset option is exercised, the charge for the ING Joint LifePay rider will be equal to the charge then in effect for a newly purchased rider but will not exceed the maximum annual charge of 1.50%. However, we guarantee that the ING Joint LifePay rider charge will not increase for resets exercised within the first five contract years. See Illustration 4 at the end of this appendix.

</R>

     Investment Option Restrictions. In order to mitigate the insurance risk inherent in our guarantee to provide you and your spouse with lifetime payments (subject to the terms and restrictions of the ING Joint LifePay rider), we require that your contract value be allocated in accordance with certain limitations. In general, to the extent that you choose not to invest in the Accepted Funds, we require that 20% of the amount not so invested be invested in the Fixed Allocation Funds. We will require this allocation regardless of your investment instructions to the contract, as described below.

<R>

While the ING Joint LifePay 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 20% of such contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds. See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below.

Accepted Funds. Currently, the Accepted Funds are:

BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund
ING American Funds Asset Allocation Portfolio
ING American Funds World Allocation Portfolio
ING LifeStyle Conservative Portfolio
ING LifeStyle Growth Portfolio
ING LifeStyle Moderate Growth Portfolio

ING LifeStyle Moderate Portfolio
ING Liquid Assets Portfolio

ING MFS Total Return Portfolio
ING Oppenheimer Active Allocation Portfolio
ING Russell Global Large Cap Index 75% Portfolio
ING T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio
ING Van Kampen Equity and Income Portfolio
ING Van Kampen Global Tactical Asset Allocation
Portfolio
Fixed Interest Allocation

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

ING Franklin Templeton Founding Strategy Portfolio ING Global Equity Option Portfolio

ING WisdomTreeSM Global High-Yielding Equity Index Portfolio

ESII - 152940

</R>

K15


<R> </R>

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.

<R>

Fixed Allocation Funds. Currently, the Fixed Allocation Funds are:

ING American Funds Bond Portfolio
ING BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio
ING U.S. Bond Index Portfolio

ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio
ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio

You may allocate contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.

</R>

     Other Funds. All portfolios available under the contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

     Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than 20% of the total contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any ING Joint LifePay Rebalancing Date, we will automatically rebalance the contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that 20% of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis among the Other Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING Joint LifePay Rebalancing Dates occur on each contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you; and
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

K16


Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.”

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in them. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider if you do not wish to have your contract value reallocated in this manner.

     Divorce. Generally, in the event of a divorce, the spouse who retains ownership of the contract will continue to be entitled to all rights and benefits of the ING Joint LifePay rider, while the ex-spouse will no longer have any such rights or be entitled to any such benefits. In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the ING Joint LifePay rider continues, and terminates upon the death of the owner (first owner in the case of joint owners, or the annuitant in the case of a custodial IRA). Although spousal continuation may be available under the Tax Code for a subsequent spouse, the ING Joint LifePay rider cannot be continued by the new spouse. As the result of the divorce, we may be required to withdraw assets for the benefit of an ex-spouse. Any such withdrawal will be considered a withdrawal for purposes of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount. In other words, if a withdrawal incident to a divorce exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount, it will be considered an excess withdrawal. See “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above. As noted, in the event of a divorce there is no change to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and we will continue to deduct charges for the ING Joint LifePay rider.

In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, there will be no change to the periodic payments made. Payments will continue until both spouses are deceased.

     Death of Owner. The death of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner, or for custodial IRAs, the annuitant) during Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status may cause the termination of the ING Joint LifePay rider and its charges, depending upon whether one or both spouses are in active status at the time of death, as described below.

1)      If both spouses are in active status: If the surviving spouse elects to continue the contract and becomes the sole owner and annuitant, the ING Joint LifePay rider will remain in effect pursuant to its original terms and ING Joint LifePay coverage and charges will continue. As of the date the contract is continued, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be set to the greater of the existing Maximum Annual Withdrawal or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the contract value on the date the contract is continued. Such a reset will not count as an exercise of the ING Joint LifePay Reset Option, and rider charges will not increase.
  If the surviving spouse elects not to continue the contract, ING Joint LifePay rider coverage and charges will cease upon the earlier of payment of the death benefit or notice that an alternative distribution option has been chosen.
2)      If the surviving spouse is in inactive status: The ING Joint LifePay rider terminates and ING Joint LifePay coverage and charges cease upon proof of death.

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. Other than as a result of spousal continuation, you may not change the annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay rider and rider charges will terminate upon change of owner, including adding an additional owner, except for the following ownership changes:

1)      spousal continuation by an active spouse, as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

K17


3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual (in order to avoid the owner’s spouse from being designated inactive, the owner’s spouse must be named sole beneficiary under the contract);
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      for nonqualified contracts only, the addition of a joint owner, provided that the additional joint owner is the original owner’s spouse and is active when added as joint owner;
7)      for nonqualified contracts, removal of a joint owner, provided the removed joint owner is active and becomes the primary contract beneficiary; and
8)      change of owner where the owner becomes the sole primary beneficiary and the sole primary beneficiary becomes the owner if both were active spouses at the time of the change.

     Surrender Charges. If you elect the ING Joint LifePay rider, your withdrawals will be subject to surrender charges if they exceed the free withdrawal amount. However, once your contract value is zero, the periodic payments under the ING Joint LifePay rider are not subject to surrender charges, nor will these amounts be subject to any other charges under the contract.

     Federal Tax Considerations. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING Joint LifePay rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

ING LifePay and ING Joint LifePay Partial Withdrawal Amount Examples. The following are examples of adjustments to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal:

Illustration 1: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including surrender and/or MVA charges.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $500 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $300 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $200 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, then there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $7,000 ($3,000 + $500 + $1,500 + $300 + $1,500 + $200). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal ($7,000 - $5,000 = $2,000), and the amount of the current gross withdrawal ($1,500 + 200 = $1,700.

If the Account Value before this withdrawal is $50,000, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 3.40% ($1,700 / $50,000) to $4,830 ((1 - 3.40%) * $5,000).

Illustration 2: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000, and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $1,500.

If the Account Value after the part of the gross withdrawal that was within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $500, is $49,500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 2.02% ($1,000 / $49,500) to $4,899 ((1 - 2.02%) * $5,000).

Illustration 3: A withdrawal exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount but does not exceed the Additional Withdrawal Amount.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. The RMD for the current calendar year applicable to this contract is determined to be $6,000. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of this amount above the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000).

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. Total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, however, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not adjusted until the Additional Withdrawal Amount is exhausted. The amount by which total net withdrawals taken exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000), is the same as the Additional Withdrawal Amount, so no adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is made. If total net withdrawals taken had exceeded the sum of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional Withdrawal Amount, then an adjustment would be made to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Illustration 4: The Reset Option is utilized.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000 and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage is 5%.

One year after the first withdrawal is taken, the contract value has increased to $120,000, and the Reset Option is utilized. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is now $6,000 ($120,000 * 5%).

One year after the Reset Option was first utilized, the contract value has increased further to $130,000. The Reset Option is utilized again, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is now $6,500 ($130,000 * 5%).

  APPENDIX L

Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit

(Applicable to Contracts Issued in States Where ING LifePay is Not Available.)

Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Rider (MGWB). The MGWB rider, marketed under the name, ING PrincipalGuard Withdrawal Benefit, is an optional benefit which guarantees that if your contract value is reduced to zero, you will receive periodic payments. The amount of the periodic payments is based on the amount in the MGWB Withdrawal Account. Only premiums added to your Contract during the first two-year period after your rider date are included in the MGWB Withdrawal Account. Any additional premium payments added after the second rider anniversary are not included in the MGWB Withdrawal Account. Thus, the MGWB rider may not be appropriate for you if you plan to add substantial premium payments after your second rider anniversary.

The guarantee provides that, subject to the conditions described below, the amount you will receive in periodic payments is equal to your Eligible Payment Amount adjusted for any prior withdrawals. Your Eligible Payment Amount depends on when you purchase the MGWB rider and equals:

1)      if you purchased the MGWB rider on the contract date: your premium payments received during the first two contract years;
2)      if you purchased the MGWB rider after the contract date: your contract value on the Rider Date, including any premiums received that day, and any subsequent premium payments received during the two-year period commencing on the Rider Date.

To maintain the guarantee, withdrawals in any contract year may not exceed 7% of your Eligible Payment Amount adjusted, as defined below. If your contract value is reduced to zero, your periodic payments will be 7% of your Eligible Payment Amount every year. Payments continue until your MGWB Withdrawal Account is reduced to zero. Please note that before Automatic Periodic Benefit status is reached, withdrawals in excess of the free withdrawal amount will be subject to surrender charges. Once your contract reaches Automatic Period Benefit Status, the periodic payments paid under the MGWB rider are not subject to surrender charges.

<R>

The MGWB Withdrawal Account is equal to the Eligible Payment Amount adjusted for any withdrawals and transfers between Covered and Excluded Funds. The MGWB Withdrawal Account is tracked separately for Covered and Excluded Funds. The MGWB Withdrawal Account equals the sum of (a) the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds, and (b) the lesser of (i) the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds and (ii) the contract value in Excluded Funds. Thus, investing in the Excluded Funds may limit the MGWB Withdrawal Account. No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds for the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit.

</R>

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (or “MAW”) is equal to 7% of the Eligible Payment Amount. Withdrawals from Covered Funds of up to the MAW will reduce the value of your MGWB Withdrawal Account by the dollar amount of the withdrawal. Any withdrawals from Covered Funds greater than the MAW will cause a reduction in the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds by the proportion that the excess withdrawal bears to the remaining contract value in Covered Funds after the withdrawal of the MAW. All withdrawals from Excluded Funds will reduce the value of the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. If a single withdrawal involves both Covered and Excluded Funds and exceeds 7%, the withdrawal will be treated as taken first from Covered Funds.

Any withdrawals greater than the MAW will also cause a reduction in the Eligible Payment Amount by the proportion that the excess portion of the withdrawal bears to the contract value remaining after withdrawal of the MAW at the time of the withdrawal. Please see “MGWB Excess Withdrawal Amount Examples,” below.

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

L1


Once your contract value is zero, any periodic payments paid under the MGWB rider also reduce the MGWB Withdrawal Account by the dollar amount of the payments. If a withdrawal reduces the MGWB Withdrawal Account to zero, the MGWB rider terminates and no further benefits are payable under the rider.

Net transfers from Covered Funds to Excluded Funds will reduce the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds on a pro-rata basis. The resulting increase in the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds equals the reduction in the MGWB Withdrawal Account for Covered Funds.

Net transfers from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds will reduce the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. The resulting increase in the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds will equal the lesser of the reduction in the MGWB Withdrawal Account for Excluded Funds and the net contract value transferred.

You should not make any withdrawals if you wish to retain the option to elect the Step-Up Benefit (see below).

The MGWB Withdrawal Account is only a calculation which represents the remaining amount available for periodic payments. It does not represent a contract value, nor does it guarantee performance of the subaccounts in which you are invested. It will not affect your annuitization, surrender and death benefits.

     Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. You may continue to make withdrawals in any amount permitted under your Contract so long as your contract value is greater than zero. See “Withdrawals.” However, making any withdrawals in any year greater than the MAW will reduce the Eligible Payment Amount and payments under the MGWB rider by the proportion that the withdrawal bears to the contract value at the time of the withdrawal. The MGWB rider will remain in force and you may continue to make withdrawals each year so long as:

1)      your contract value is greater than zero;
2)      your MGWB Withdrawal Account is greater than zero;
3)      you have not reached your latest allowable annuity start date;
4)      you have not elected to annuitize your Contract; and
5)      you have not died (unless your spouse has elected to continue the Contract), changed the ownership of the Contract or surrendered the Contract.

The standard Contract provision limiting withdrawals to no more than 90% of the cash surrender value is not applicable under the MGWB rider.

     Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Under the MGWB rider, in the event your contract value is reduced to zero, your Contract is given Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if:

1)      your MGWB Withdrawal Account is greater than zero;
2)      you have not reached your latest allowable annuity start date;
3)      you have not elected to annuitize your Contract; and
4)      you have not died, changed the ownership of the Contract or surrendered the Contract.

Once your Contract is given Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you the annual MGWB periodic payments, beginning on the next contract anniversary until the earliest of (i) your Contract’s latest annuity start date, (ii) the death of the owner; or (iii) your MGWB Withdrawal Account is exhausted. These payments are equal to the lesser of the remaining MGWB Withdrawal Account or the MAW. We will reduce the MGWB Withdrawal Account by the amount of each payment. Once your Contract is given Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will not accept

<R>

ESII - 152940

</R>

L2


any additional premium payments in your Contract, and the Contract will not provide any benefits except those provided by the MGWB rider. Any other rider terminates. Your Contract will remain in Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until the earliest of (i) payment of all MGWB periodic payments, (ii) payment of the Commuted Value (defined below) or (iii) the owner’s death.

On the Contract’s latest annuity start date, in lieu of making the remaining MGWB periodic payments, we will pay you the Commuted Value of your MGWB periodic payments remaining. We may, at our option, extend your annuity start date in order to continue the MGWB periodic payments. The Commuted Value is the present value of any then-remaining MGWB periodic payments at the current interest rate plus 0.50%. The current interest rate will be determined by the average of the Ask Yields for U.S. Treasury STRIPS as quoted by a national quoting service for period(s) applicable to the remaining payments. Once we pay you the last MGWB periodic payment or the Commuted Value, your Contract and the MGWB rider terminate.

     Reset Option. Beginning on the fifth contract anniversary following the Rider Date, if the contract value is greater than the MGWB Withdrawal Account, you may choose to reset the MGWB Rider. The effect will be to terminate the existing MGWB Rider and add a new MGWB Rider (“New Rider”). The MGWB Withdrawal Account under the New Rider will equal the contract value on the date the New Rider is effective. The charge for the MGWB under the New Rider and any right to reset again will be based on the terms of the New Rider when it is issued. We reserve the right to limit the reset election to contract anniversaries only. If you elect the Reset Option, the Step-Up benefit is not available.

     Step-Up Benefit. If the Rider Date is the same as the Contract Date, beginning on the fifth contract anniversary following the Rider Date, if you have not made any previous withdrawals, you may elect to increase the MGWB Withdrawal Account, the adjusted Eligible Payment Amount and the MAW by a factor of 20%. This option is available whether or not the contract value is greater than the MGWB Withdrawal Account. If you elect the Step-Up Benefit:

1)      we reserve the right to increase the charge for the MGWB Rider up to a maximum annual charge of 1.00% of contract value;
2)      you must wait at least five years from the Step-Up date to elect the Reset Option.

The Step-Up Benefit may be elected only one time under the MGWB Rider. We reserve the right to limit the election of the Step-Up Benefit to contract anniversaries only. Please note that if you have a third party investment advisor who charges a separate advisory fee, and you have chosen to use withdrawals from your contract to pay this fee, these will be treated as any other withdrawals, and the Step-Up Benefit will not be available.

Death of Owner.

     Before Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The MGWB rider terminates on the first owner’s date of death (death of annuitant, if there is a non-natural owner), but the death benefit is payable. However, if the beneficiary is the owner’s spouse, the spouse elects to continue the Contract, and the contract value steps up to the minimum guaranteed death benefit, the MGWB Withdrawal Account and MAW are also reset. The MGWB charge will continue at the existing rate. Reset upon spousal continuation does not affect any then existing Reset Option.

     During Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The death benefit payable during Automatic Periodic Benefit Status is your MGWB Withdrawal Account which equals the sum of the remaining MGWB periodic payments.

     Purchase. To purchase the MGWB rider, you must be age 80 or younger on the Rider Date. The MGWB rider must be purchased on the contract date. If the rider is not yet available in your state, the Company may in its discretion allow purchase of this rider during the 30-day period preceding the first contract anniversary after the date of this prospectus, or the date of state approval, whichever is later.

MGWB Excess Withdrawal Amount Examples. The following are examples of adjustments to the MGWB Withdrawal Account and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount for Transfers and Withdrawals in Excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (“Excess Withdrawals Amount”):

Example #1: Owner has invested only in Covered Funds

     Assume the Contract Value (CV) before the withdrawal is $100,000 and is invested in Covered Funds only, the Eligible Payment Amount (EPA) is $100,000, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (MAW) is $7,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds (“Covered Withdrawal Account”) is $120,000, and a withdrawal of $10,000 is made. The effect of the withdrawal is calculated as follows:

The new CV is $90,000 ($100,000 - $10,000).

The Excess Withdrawal Amount is $3,000 ($10,000 - $7,000).

     The Covered Withdrawal Account is first reduced dollar-for-dollar by the portion of the withdrawal up to the MAW to $113,000 ($120,000 - $7,000), and is then reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal Amount to the CV (after being reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $109,354.84 ($113,000 * (1 - $3,000 / $93,000)).

     The EPA is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal Amount to the CV (after being reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $96,774.19 ($100,000 * (1 - $3,000 / $93,000)). The reduction to the EPA for withdrawals of Excess Withdrawal Amount is applied pro-rata regardless of whether CV is allocated to Covered or Excluded Funds. The MAW is then recalculated to be 7% of the new EPA, $6,774.19 ($96,774.19 * 7%).

Example #2: Owner has invested only in Excluded Funds

     Assume the Contract Value (CV) before the withdrawal is $100,000 and is invested in Excluded Funds only, the Eligible Payment Amount (EPA) is $100,000, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (MAW) is $7,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds (“Excluded Withdrawal Account”) is $120,000, and a withdrawal of $10,000 is made. The effect of the withdrawal is calculated as follows:

The new CV is $90,000 ($100,000 - $10,000).

The Excess Withdrawal Amount is $3,000 ($10,000 - $7.000).

     The Excluded Withdrawal Account is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the entire amount withdrawn to the CV (before the withdrawal) to $108,000 ($120,000 * (1 - $10,000 / $100,000)).

     The EPA is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal Amount to the CV (after being reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $96,774.19 ($100,000 * (1 - $3,000/$93,000)). The reduction to the EPA for withdrawals of Excess Withdrawal Amount is applied pro-rata regardless of whether CV is allocated to Covered or Excluded Funds. The MAW is then recalculated to be 7% of the new EPA, $6,774.19 ($96,774.19 * 7%).

Example #3: Owner has invested in both Covered and Excluded Funds

     Assume the Contract Value (CV) before the withdrawal is $100,000 and is invested $60,000 in Covered Funds and $40,000 in Excluded Funds. Further assume that the Eligible Payment Amount (EPA) is $100,000, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (MAW) is $7,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds (“Covered Withdrawal Account”) is $75,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds (“Excluded Withdrawal Account”) is $45,000, and a withdrawal is made of $10,000 ($8,000 from Covered Funds and $2,000 from Excluded Funds).

     The new CV for Covered Funds is $52,000 ($60,000 - $8,000), and the new CV for Excluded Funds is $38,000 ($40,000 - $2,000).

     The Covered Withdrawal Account is first reduced dollar-for-dollar by the lesser of the MAW ($7,000) and the amount withdrawn from Covered Funds ($8,000) to $68,000 ($75,000 - $7,000), and is then reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of any Excess Withdrawal Amount from Covered Funds to the CV in Covered Funds (after being reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $66,716.98 ($68,000 * (1 – $1,000 / $53,000).

     The Excluded Withdrawal Account is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the amount withdrawn from Excluded Funds to the CV in Excluded Funds (prior to the withdrawal) to $42,750 ($45,000 * (1 - $2,000 / $40,000)).

     The EPA is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal Amount to the CV (after being reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $96,774.19 ($100,000 * (1 - $3,000 / $93,000)). The reduction to the EPA for withdrawals of Excess Withdrawal Amount is applied pro-rata regardless of whether CV is allocated to Covered or Excluded Funds. The MAW is then recalculated to be 7% of the new EPA, $6,774.19 ($96,774.19 * 7%).

Example #4: Owner transfers funds from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds

     Assume the Contract Value (CV) before the transfer is $100,000 and is invested $60,000 in Covered Funds and $40,000 in Excluded Funds. Further assume that the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds (“Covered Withdrawal Account”) is $75,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds (“Excluded Withdrawal Account”) is $45,000, and a transfer is made of $10,000 from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds.

     The new CV for Covered Funds is $70,000 ($60,000 + $10,000), and the new CV for Excluded Funds is $30,000 ($40,000 - $10,000).

     The Excluded Withdrawal Account is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the amount transferred from Excluded Funds to the CV in Excluded Funds (prior to the transfer) to $33,750 ($45,000 * (1 - $10,000 / $40,000)).

     The Covered Withdrawal Account is increased by the lesser of the reduction of the Excluded Withdrawal Account of $11,250 ($45,000 - $33,750) and the actual amount transferred of $10,000. Thus, the Covered Withdrawal Account is increased to $85,000 ($75,000 + $10,000).

Example #5: Owner transfers funds from Covered Funds to Excluded Funds

     Assume the Contract Value (CV) before the transfer is $100,000 and is invested $60,000 in Covered Funds and $40,000 in Excluded Funds. Further assume that the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds (“Covered Withdrawal Account”) is $75,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds (“Excluded Withdrawal Account”) is $45,000, and a transfer is made of $10,000 from Covered Funds to Excluded Funds.

     The new CV for Covered Funds is $50,000 ($60,000 - $10,000), and the new CV for Excluded Funds is $50,000 ($40,000 + $10,000).

     The Covered Withdrawal Account is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the amount transferred from Covered Funds to the CV in Covered Funds (prior to the transfer) to $62,500 ($75,000 * (1 - $10,000 / $60,000)).

     The Excluded Withdrawal Account is increased by the reduction of the Covered Withdrawal Account of $12,500 ($75,000 - $62,500) to $57,500 ($45,000 + $12,500).

ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

Separate Account B of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

Deferred Combination Variable and Fixed Annuity Prospectus

ING GOLDENSELECT OPPORTUNITIES

<R>

May 1, 2009

</R>

     This prospectus describes ING GoldenSelect Opportunities, a group and individual deferred combination variable annuity contract (the “Contract”) offered for sale by ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (“ING USA,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) through Separate Account B (the “Separate Account”). The Contract was available in connection with certain retirement plans that qualify for special federal income tax treatment (“qualified Contracts”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Tax Code”), as well as those that did not qualify for such treatment (“non-qualified Contracts”). We currently do not offer this Contract for sale to new purchasers.

     The Contract provides a means for you to invest your premium payments in one or more mutual fund investment portfolios. You may also allocate premium payments to our Fixed Account with guaranteed interest periods. Your contract value will vary daily to reflect the investment performance of the investment portfolio(s) you select and any interest credited to your allocations in the Fixed Account. For Contracts sold in some states, not all Fixed Interest Allocations or subaccounts are available. The investment portfolios available under your Contract are listed on the next page.

     You have a right to return a Contract within 10 days after you receive it for a refund of the adjusted contract value (which may be more or less than the premium payments you paid), or if required by your state, the original amount of your premium payment. Longer free look periods apply in some states and in certain situations.

     Replacing an existing annuity with the Contract may not be beneficial to you. Your existing annuity may be subject to fees or penalties on surrender, and the Contract may have new charges.

<R>

     This prospectus provides information that you should know before investing and should be kept for future reference. A Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”), dated May 1, 2009 , has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). It is available without charge upon request. To obtain a copy of this document, write to our Customer Service Center at P.O. Box 9271, Des Moines, Iowa 50306-9271 or call (800) 366-0066, or access the SEC’s website (http://www.sec.gov). The table of contents of the SAI is on the last page of this prospectus and the SAI is made part of this prospectus by reference.

</R>

     The SEC has not approved or disapproved these securities or passed upon the adequacy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

     An investment in any subaccount through a Trust or Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by any bank or by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

     We pay compensation to broker/dealers whose registered representatives sell the Contract. See “Other Contract Provisions – Selling the Contract,” for further information about the amount of compensation we pay.

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 charge base, 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). 
 
2 For more information about how the MGIB Charge Base is determined, please see “Living Benefit Riders 
     – Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit Rider (the “MGIB rider”) – Rider Charge.” 
 
3 The ING LifePay Plus Base is calculated based on premium, if this rider is elected at contract issue. 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 the Annual Ratchet once the Lifetime Withdrawal 
     Phase begins, subject to the maximum charge. We promise not to increase the charge for your first five 
     contract 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 “Living Benefit Riders – ING LifePay Plus

The next item shows the minimum and maximum total operating expenses charged by the Trust or Fund that you may pay periodically during the time that you own the Contract. More detail concerning each Trust or Fund’s fees and expenses is contained in the prospectus for each Trust or Fund.

<R>
Total Annual Trust or Fund Operating Expenses  Minimum  Maximum

1      The Company may receive compensation from each of the funds or the funds’ affiliates based on an annual percentage of the average net assets held in that fund by the Company. The percentage paid may vary from one fund company to another. For certain funds, some of this compensation may be paid out of 12b-1 fees or service fees that are deducted from fund assets. Any such fees deducted from fund assets are disclosed in the Fund or Trust prospectuses. The Company may also receive additional compensation from certain funds for administrative, recordkeeping or other services provided by the Company to the funds or the funds’ affiliates. These additional payments are made by the funds or the funds’ affiliates to the Company and do not increase, directly or indirectly, the fees and expenses shown above.
2      No Trust or Fund currently charges a redemption fee. For more information about redemption fees, please see “Charges and Fees – Charges Deducted from the Contract Value – Redemption Fees.”

Example

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Contract with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts.

<R>

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Contract for the time periods indicated. The costs reflected are the maximum charges for the Contract with the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit and the most expensive combination of riders possible: Earnings Multiplier Benefit and ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year, and assumes the maximum Trust or Fund fees and expenses. Excluded are premium taxes and any transfer charges.

</R>

Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

<R>
1)  If you surrender or annuitize your contract at the end of the applicable time period: 
                     1 year  3 years         5 years       10 years 
  $1,437  $2,521  $3,617  $6,481 
2)  If you do not surrender your contract:     
                     1 year  3 years         5 years       10 years 
  $637  $1,921  $3,217  $6,481 

</R>

Compensation is paid for the sale of the Contracts. For information about this compensation, see “Other Contract Provisions – Selling the Contract.”

Fees Deducted by the Funds

     Fund Fee Information. The fund prospectuses show the investment advisory fees, 12b-1 fees and other expenses including service fees (if applicable) charged annually by each fund. Fund fees are one factor that impacts the value of a fund share. Please refer to the fund prospectuses for more information and to learn more about additional factors.

The Company may receive compensation from each of the funds or the funds’ affiliates based on an annual percentage of the average net assets held in that fund by the Company. The percentage paid may vary from one fund company to another. For certain funds, some of this compensation may be paid out of 12b-1 fees or service fees that are deducted from fund assets. Any such fees deducted from fund assets are disclosed in the fund prospectuses. The Company may also receive additional compensation from certain funds for administrative, recordkeeping or other services provided by the Company to the funds or the funds’ affiliates. These additional payments may also be used by the Company to finance distribution. These additional payments are made by the funds or the funds’ affiliates to the Company and do not increase, directly or indirectly, the fund fees and expenses. Please see “Charges and Fees – Trust and Fund Expenses” for more information.

In the case of fund companies affiliated with the Company, where an affiliated investment adviser employs subadvisers to manage the funds, no direct payments are made to the Company or the affiliated investment adviser by the subadvisers. Subadvisers may provide reimbursement for employees of the Company or its affiliates to attend business meetings or training conferences. Investment management fees are apportioned between the affiliated investment adviser and subadviser. This apportionment varies by subadviser, resulting in varying amounts of revenue retained by the affiliated investment adviser. This apportionment of the investment advisory fee does not increase, directly or indirectly, fund fees and expenses. Please see “Charges and Fees – Trust and Fund Expenses” for more information.

     How Fees are Deducted. Fees are deducted from the value of the fund shares on a daily basis, which in turn affects the value of each subaccount that purchases fund shares.

CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Accumulation Unit

<R>

We use accumulation units to calculate the value of a Contract. Each subaccount of Separate Account B has its own accumulation unit value. The accumulation units are valued each business day that the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading. Their values may increase or decrease from day to day according to a Net Investment Factor, which is primarily based on the investment performance of the applicable investment portfolio. Shares in the investment portfolios are valued at their net asset value.

</R>

Tables containing (i) the accumulation unit value history of each subaccount of ING USA Separate Account B offered in this prospectus and (ii) the total investment value history of each such subaccount are presented in “Appendix A — Condensed Financial Information” – for the lowest and highest combination of asset-based charges. The numbers show the year-end unit values of each subaccount from the time purchase payments were first received in the subaccounts under the Contract. Complete information is available in the SAI.

The Net Investment Factor

The Net Investment Factor is an index number which reflects certain charges under the Contract and the investment performance of the subaccount. The Net Investment Factor is calculated for each subaccount as follows:

1)      We take the net asset value of the subaccount at the end of each business day.
2)      We add to (1) the amount of any dividend or capital gains distribution declared for the subaccount and reinvested in such subaccount. We subtract from that amount a charge for our taxes, if any.
3)      We divide (2) by the net asset value of the subaccount at the end of the preceding business day.
4)      We then subtract the applicable daily charges from the subaccount; the mortality and expense risk charge; the asset-based administrative charge; and any optional rider charges.

Calculations for the subaccounts are made on a per share basis.

The Net Rate of Return equals the Net Investment Factor minus one.

Financial Statements

The financial statements of the Separate Account and ING USA can be found in the SAI. The financial statements of the Separate Account include information about all contracts offered through the Separate Account. The financial statements of ING USA should only be considered as bearing on the Company’s ability to meet its contractual obligations under the Contracts. ING USA’s financial statements do not bear on the future investment experience of the assets held in the Separate Account.

ING USA SEPARATE ACCOUNT B

<R>

ING USA Separate Account B (“Separate Account B”) was established as a separate account of the Company on July 14, 1988. It is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Separate Account B is a separate investment account used for our variable annuity contracts. We own all the assets in Separate Account B but such assets are kept separate from our other accounts.

</R>

Separate Account B is divided into subaccounts. Each subaccount invests exclusively in shares of one investment portfolio of a Trust or Fund. Each investment portfolio has its own distinct investment objectives and policies. Income, gains and losses, realized or unrealized, of a portfolio are credited to or charged against the corresponding subaccount of Separate Account B without regard to any other income, gains or losses of the Company. Assets equal to the reserves and other contract liabilities with respect to each are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business of the Company. They may, however, be subject to liabilities arising from subaccounts whose assets we attribute to other variable annuity contracts supported by Separate Account B. If the assets in Separate Account B exceed the required reserves and other liabilities, we may transfer the excess to our general account. When we deduct the fees we charge for the Contract, these would constitute excess assets that we would transfer to the general account. We are obligated to pay all benefits and make all payments provided under the Contracts, and will keep the Separate Account fully funded to cover such liabilities.

Note: We currently offer other variable annuity contracts that invest in Separate Account B, but are not discussed in this prospectus. Separate Account B may also invest in other investment portfolios which are not available under your Contract. Under certain circumstances, we may make certain changes to the subaccounts. For more information, see “The Annuity Contract — Addition, Deletion, or Substitution of Subaccounts and Other Changes.”

ING USA ANNUITY AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

ING USA is an Iowa stock life insurance company, which was originally incorporated in Minnesota on January 2, 1973. ING USA is a wholly owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc. (“Lion Connecticut”), which in turn is a wholly owned subsidiary of ING Groep N.V. (“ING”), a global financial services holding company based in The Netherlands. ING USA is authorized to sell insurance and annuities in all states, except New York, and the District of Columbia. Although we are a subsidiary of ING, ING is not responsible for the obligations under the Contract. The obligations under the Contract are solely the responsibility of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company.

Lion Connecticut is the holding company for Directed Services LLC, the investment manager of the ING Investors Trust and the distributor of the Contracts, and other interests. ING also owns ING Investments, LLC and ING Investment Management Co., portfolio managers of the ING Investors Trust, and the investment managers of the ING Variable Insurance Trust and ING Variable Products Trust and ING Variable Product Portfolios, respectively.

Regulatory Matters

As with many financial services companies, the Company and its affiliates have received informal and formal requests for information from various state and federal governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations in connection with inquiries and investigations of the products and practices of the financial services industry. In each case, the Company and its affiliates have been and are providing full cooperation.

<R>

     Insurance and Retirement Plan Products and Other Regulatory Matters. Federal and state regulators, and self-regulatory agencies are conducting broad inquiries and investigations involving the insurance and retirement industries. These initiatives currently focus on, among other things, compensation, revenue sharing, and other sales incentives; potential conflicts of interest; sales and marketing practices (including sales to seniors); specific product types (including group annuities and indexed annuities); and disclosure. The Company and certain of its U.S. affiliates have received formal and informal requests in connection with such investigations, and have cooperated and are cooperating fully with each request for information. Some of these matters could result in regulatory action involving the Company. These initiatives also may result in new legislation and regulation that could significantly affect the financial services industry, including businesses in which the Company is engaged. In light of these and other developments, U.S. affiliates of ING, including the Company, periodically review whether modifications to their business practices are appropriate.

</R>

     Investment Product Regulatory Issues. Since 2002, there has been increased governmental and regulatory activity relating to mutual funds and variable insurance products. This activity has primarily focused on inappropriate trading of fund shares; directed brokerage; compensation; sales practices, suitability, and supervision; arrangements with service providers; pricing; compliance and controls; adequacy of disclosure; and document retention.

In addition to responding to governmental and regulatory requests on fund trading issues, ING management, on its own initiative, conducted, through special counsel and a national accounting firm, an extensive internal review of mutual fund trading in ING insurance, retirement, and mutual fund products. The goal of this review was to identify any instances of inappropriate trading in those products by third parties or by ING investment professionals and other ING personnel.

<R>

The internal review identified several isolated arrangements allowing third parties to engage in frequent trading of mutual funds within the variable insurance and mutual fund products of ING , and identified other circumstances where frequent trading occurred despite measures taken by ING intended to combat market timing. Each of the arrangements has been terminated and disclosed to regulators, to the independent trustees of ING Funds (U.S.) and in Company reports previously filed with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Action has been or may be taken by regulators with respect to the Company or certain affiliates before investigations relating to fund trading are completed. The potential outcome of such action is difficult to predict but could subject the Company or certain affiliates to adverse consequences, including, but not limited to, settlement payments, penalties, and other financial liability. It is not currently anticipated, however, that the actual outcome of any such action will have a material adverse effect on ING or ING’s U.S.-based operations, including the Company.

</R>

ING has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the ING Funds from all damages resulting from wrongful conduct by ING or its employees or from ING’s internal investigation, any investigations conducted by any governmental or self-regulatory agencies, litigation or other formal proceedings, including any proceedings by the SEC. Management reported to the ING Funds Board that ING management believes that the total amount of any indemnification obligations will not be material to ING or ING’s U.S.-based operations, including the Company.

     Product Regulation. Our products are subject to a complex and extensive array of state and federal tax, securities and insurance laws, and regulations, which are administered and enforced by a number of governmental and self-regulatory authorities. Specifically, U.S. federal income tax law imposes requirements relating to nonqualified annuity product design, administration, and investments that are conditions for beneficial tax treatment of such products under the Internal Revenue Code. (See “Federal Tax Considerations” for further discussion of some of these requirements.) Failure to administer certain nonqualified contract features (for example, contractual

Opportunities

<R>

annuity start dates in nonqualified annuities) could affect such beneficial tax treatment. In addition, state and federal securities and insurance laws impose requirements relating to insurance and annuity product design, offering and distribution, and administration. Failure to meet any of these complex tax, securities, or insurance requirements could subject the Company to administrative penalties, unanticipated remediation, or other claims and costs.

</R>

THE TRUSTS AND FUNDS

You will find information about the Trusts and Funds currently available under your Contract in “Appendix B — The Investment Portfolios.” A prospectus containing more complete information on each Trust or Fund may be obtained by calling our Customer Service Center at (800) 366-0066. You should read the prospectus carefully before investing.

<R>

Certain funds are designated as “Master-Feeder” or “LifeStyle Funds.” Funds offered in a Master-Feeder structure (such as the American Funds) or fund of funds structure (such as the LifeStyle Funds) may have higher fees and expenses than a fund that invests directly in debt and equity securities. Consult with your investment professional to determine if the Portfolios may be suited to your financial needs, investment time horizon and risk tolerance. You should periodically review these factors to determine if you need to change your investment strategy.

</R>

In the event that, due to differences in tax treatment or other considerations, the interests of the contract owners participating in the Trusts or Funds conflict, we, the Board of Trustees or Directors of the Trusts or Funds, and any other insurance companies participating on the Trusts or Funds will monitor events to identify and resolve any material conflicts that may arise.

Restricted Funds

We may, with 30 days notice to you, designate any investment option as a Restricted Fund and limit the amount you may allocate or transfer to a Restricted Fund. We may also change the limitations on existing contracts with respect to new premiums added to investment portfolios and with respect to new transfers to investment portfolios. We may establish any limitations, at our discretion, as a percentage of premium or contract value, or as a specified dollar amount, and change the limitation at any time. Currently, we have not designated any investment option as a Restricted Fund. If we designate an investment option as a Restricted Fund or set applicable limitations, such change will apply only to transactions made after the designation.

We limit your investment in the Restricted Funds on an aggregate basis for all Restricted Funds and for each individual Restricted Fund. Currently, we limit an investment in Restricted Funds to the following limitations: no more than $999,999,999, and no more than 30 percent of contract value. We may change these limits, in our discretion, for new contracts, premiums, transfers or withdrawals.

We monitor the aggregate and individual limits on investments in Restricted Funds for each transaction (e.g. premium payments, reallocations, withdrawals, dollar cost averaging). If the contract value in the Restricted Funds has increased beyond the applicable limit due to market growth, we will not require the reallocation or withdrawal of contract value from the Restricted Funds. However, if the contract value in the Restricted Funds exceed the aggregate limit, if you take a withdrawal, it must come from either the Restricted Funds or pro-rata from all investment options in which contract value is allocated, so that the percentage of contract value in the Restricted Funds following the withdrawal is less than or equal to the percentage of contract value in the Restricted Funds prior to the withdrawal.

We will allocate pro-rata the portion of any premium payment that exceeds the limits with a Restricted Fund to your other investment option choices not designated as Restricted Funds, or to a specially designated subaccount if there are none (currently, the ING Liquid Asset Portfolio), unless you instruct us otherwise.

Opportunities

We will not permit a transfer to the Restricted Funds if it would increase the contract value in the Restricted Fund or in all Restricted Funds to more than the applicable limits set forth above. If the total amount of your requested transfer exceeds the applicable limits, we will inform your financial representative or you that we will not process any part of the transfer and that new instructions will be required. We will not limit transfers from Restricted Funds. If the multiple reallocations lower the percentage of total contract value in Restricted Funds, we will permit the reallocation even if the percentage of contract value in a Restricted Fund is greater than its limit.

Please see “Withdrawals” and “Transfers Among Your Investments (Excessive Trading Policy)” in this prospectus for more information on the effect of Restricted Funds.

Covered Funds, Special Funds and Excluded Funds

For purposes of determining death benefits and benefits under the optional benefit riders (but not the earnings multiplier benefit rider), we assign the investment options to one of three categories of funds. The categories are:

1)      Covered Funds;
2)      Special Funds; and
3)      Excluded Funds.

Allocations to Covered Funds participate fully in all guaranteed benefits. Allocations to Special Funds could affect the death benefit and/or optional benefit rider guarantee that may otherwise be provided. Allocations to Excluded Funds do not participate in any guaranteed benefits, due to their potential for volatility. No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds.

Designation of investment options under these categories may vary by benefit. For example, we may designate an investment option a Special Fund for purposes of calculating a benefit under an optional benefit rider, but not a death benefit, or for calculating one death benefit and not another. We may, with 30 days notice to you, designate any investment option as a Special or Excluded Fund with respect to new premiums added to such investment option and also with respect to new transfers to such investment option. For more information about these categories of funds with a death benefit, please see “Death Benefit Choices – Death Benefit During the Accumulation Phase” and Appendix F for examples. These categories of funds also apply to the Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit rider. Please see “Living Benefit Riders – Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit Rider (the “MGIB rider”)” for more information.

CHARGES AND FEES

We deduct the Contract charges described below to compensate us for our costs and expenses, services provided and risks assumed under the Contracts. We incur certain costs and expenses for distributing and administering the Contracts, including compensation and expenses paid in connection with sales of the Contracts, for paying the benefits payable under the Contracts and for bearing various risks associated with the Contracts. Some of the charges are for optional riders, so they are only deducted if you elect to purchase the rider. The amount of a Contract charge will not always correspond to the actual costs associated with the charge. For example, the surrender charge collected may not fully cover all of the distribution expenses incurred by us with the service or benefits provided. We expect to profit from the charges, including the mortality and expense risk charge and rider and benefit charges, and we may use such profits to finance the distribution of Contracts.

Charge Deduction Subaccount

You may elect to have all charges, except daily charges, against your contract value deducted directly from a single subaccount designated by the Company. Currently we use the Liquid Assets subaccount for this purpose. If you do not elect this option, or if the amount of the charges is greater than the amount in the designated subaccount, we will deduct the charges as discussed below. You may cancel this option at any time by sending notice to our Customer Service Center in a form satisfactory to us.

Charges Deducted from the Contract Value

We deduct the following charges from your contract value:

     Surrender Charge. We will deduct a contingent deferred sales charge (a “surrender charge”) if you surrender your Contract or if you take a withdrawal in excess of the Free Withdrawal Amount during the 8-year period from the date we receive and accept a premium payment. We base the surrender charge on a percentage of each premium payment withdrawn. The surrender charge is based on the amount requested for withdrawal. The surrender charge is deducted from the contract value remaining after you have received the amount requested for withdrawal. This charge is intended to cover sales expenses that we have incurred. We may reduce or waive the surrender charge in certain situations. We will never charge more than the maximum surrender charges. The percentage of premium payments deducted at the time of surrender or excess withdrawal depends on the number of complete years that have elapsed since that premium payment was made. We determine the surrender charge as a percentage of each premium payment as follows:

Complete Years Elapsed  0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8+ 
     Since Premium Payment                   
Surrender Charge (as a  8%  7%  6%  5%  4%  3%  2%  1%  0% 
     percentage of Premium                   
     Payment withdrawn)                   

<R>

     Waiver of Surrender Charge for Extended Medical Care or Terminal Illness. We will waive the surrender charge in most states in the following events: (i) you begin receiving qualified extended medical care on or after the first contract anniversary for at least 45 days during a 60-day period and we receive your request for the surrender or withdrawal, together with all required documentation at our Customer Service Center during the term of your care or within 90 days after the last day of your care; or (ii) you are first diagnosed by a qualified medical professional, on or after the first contract anniversary, as having a qualifying terminal illness. We have the right to require an examination by a physician of our choice. If we require such an examination, we will pay for it. You are required to send us satisfactory written proof of illness. See your Contract for more information. The waiver of surrender charge may not be available in all states.

</R>

     Free Withdrawal Amount. The Free Withdrawal Amount is the total of (i) your cumulative earnings (which is your contract value less premium payments received and prior withdrawals), and (ii) 10% of premium payments not previously withdrawn received within 8 years prior to the date of the withdrawal.

     Surrender Charge for Excess Withdrawals. We will deduct a surrender charge for excess withdrawals, which may include a withdrawal you make to satisfy required minimum distribution requirements under the Tax Code. We consider a withdrawal to be an excess withdrawal when the amount you withdraw in any contract year exceeds the Free Withdrawal Amount. When you are receiving systematic withdrawals, any combination of regular withdrawals taken and any systematic withdrawals expected to be received in a contract year will be included in determining the amount of the excess withdrawal. In other words, if any single withdrawal or sum of withdrawals exceeds the Free Withdrawal Amount, then you will incur a surrender charge on the excess portion, no matter that the withdrawal is a regular withdrawal or a systematic withdrawal. Premium taxes may also apply. We will deduct such charges from the contract value in proportion to the contract value in each subaccount or Fixed Interest Allocation from which the excess withdrawal was taken. In instances where the excess withdrawal equals the entire contract value in such subaccounts or Fixed Interest Allocations, we will deduct charges proportionately from all other subaccounts and Fixed Interest Allocations in which you are invested. Any withdrawal from a Fixed Interest Allocation more than 30 days before its maturity date will trigger a Market Value Adjustment. See Appendix C for more information.

For the purpose of calculating the surrender charge for an excess withdrawal: (i) we treat premiums as being withdrawn on a first-in, first-out basis; and (ii) amounts withdrawn which are not considered an excess withdrawal are not considered a withdrawal of any premium payments. We have included an example of how this works in Appendix E. Although we treat premium payments as being withdrawn before earnings for purpose of calculating the surrender charge for excess withdrawals, the federal tax law treats earnings as withdrawn first.

     Premium Taxes. We may charge for state and local premium taxes depending on your state of residence. These taxes can range from 0% to 3.5% of the premium payment. We have the right to change this amount to conform with changes in the law or if you change your state of residence.

<R>

We deduct the premium tax from your contract value or in the case of a living benefit rider, the benefit base (e.g., MGIB Charge Base or ING LifePay Plus Base), if exercised on the annuity start date. However, some jurisdictions impose a premium tax at the time initial and additional premiums are paid, regardless of when the annuity payments begin. In those states we may defer collection of the premium taxes from your contract value and deduct it when you surrender the Contract, when you take an excess withdrawal or on the annuity start date.

</R>

     Administrative Charge. We deduct an annual administrative charge on each Contract anniversary. If you surrender your Contract prior to a Contract anniversary, we deduct an administrative charge when we determine the cash surrender value payable to you. The charge is $30 per Contract. We waive this charge if your contract value is $100,000 or more at the end of a contract year or the total of your premium payments is $100,000 or more or under other conditions established by ING USA. We deduct the charge proportionately from all subaccounts in which you are invested. If there is no contract value in those subaccounts, we will deduct the charge from your Fixed Interest Allocations starting with the guaranteed interest periods nearest their maturity dates until the charge has been paid.

     Transfer Charge. We currently do not deduct any charges for transfers made during a contract year. We have the right, however, to assess up to $25 for each transfer after the twelfth transfer in a contract year. The charge will not apply to any transfers due to the election of dollar cost averaging or automatic rebalancing.

     Redemption Fees. If applicable, we may deduct the amount of any redemption fees imposed by the underlying portfolios as a result of withdrawals, transfers or other fund transactions you initiate. Redemption fees, if any, are separate and distinct from any transaction charges or other charges deducted from your contract value. For a more complete description of the funds’ fees and expenses, review each fund’s prospectus.

Charges Deducted from the Subaccounts

     Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. The amount of the mortality and expense risk charge depends on the death benefit you have elected. The charge is deducted on each business day and is a percentage of average daily assets based on the assets you have in each subaccount. The mortality and expense risk charge compensates the Company for death benefit and annuitization risks and the risk that expense charges will not cover actual expenses. If there are any profits from the mortality and expense risk charge, we may use such profits to finance the distribution of contracts.

  Quarterly Ratchet  Max 7 
Standard  Enhanced  Enhanced 
Death Benefit  Death Benefit  Death Benefit 
 
Annual Charge  Annual Charge  Annual Charge 
1.25%  1.50%  1.80% 

     Asset-Based Administrative Charge. The amount of the asset-based administrative charge, on an annual basis, is equal to 0.15% of the assets you have in each subaccount. We deduct the charge on each business day at the rate of 0.0004% of average daily assets based on the assets you have in each subaccount for each day since the previous business day.

     Optional Rider Charges. Some features and benefits of the Contract, if available, are available by rider for an additional charge. Availability is subject to state approval and sometimes broker/dealer approval. Once elected, a rider cannot be canceled independently of the Contract. Below is information about the charge for a rider. Riders are subject to conditions and limitations. For more information about how the Earnings Multiplier Benefit rider works, including the conditions and limitations, please see “Death Benefit Choices – Death Benefit During the Accumulation Phase – Earnings Multiplier Benefit Rider.” For more information about how each living benefit rider works, including the defined terms used in connection with the riders, as well as the conditions and limitations, please see “Living Benefit Riders.”

     Earnings Multiplier Benefit Rider Charge. Subject to state availability, you may purchase the earnings multiplier benefit rider for both non-qualified and qualified Contracts either at issue or on the next contract anniversary following the introduction of the benefit in your state, if later. So long as the rider is in effect, we will deduct a separate quarterly charge for the rider through a pro-rata reduction of the contract value of the subaccounts in which you are invested. If there is insufficient contract value in the subaccounts, we will deduct the charges from your Fixed Interest Allocations starting with the allocation nearest its maturity date. If that is insufficient, we will deduct the charge from the allocation next nearest its maturity date, and so on. We deduct the rider charge on each quarterly contract anniversary in arrears, meaning we deduct the first charge on the first quarterly anniversary following the rider date. If you surrender or annuitize your Contract, we will deduct a pro-rata portion of the charge for the current quarter based on the current contract value immediately prior to the surrender or annuitization. The quarterly charge for the earnings multiplier benefit rider is 0.08% (0.30% annually). For a description of the rider, see “Death Benefit Choices - Earnings Multiplier Benefit Rider.”

     Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit (MGIB) Rider Charge. The charge for the MGIB rider, a living benefit, is deducted quarterly, and is a percentage of the MGIB Charge Base:

Maximum Annual Charge  Current Annual Charge 
1.50%  0.75% 

We deduct the quarterly charge in arrears from the subaccounts in which you are invested 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. The charge is deducted even if you decide never to exercise your right to annuitize under this rider. For more information about how this rider works, including how the MGIB Charge Base is determined, please see “Living Benefit Riders – Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit Rider (the “MGIB rider”).”

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C. We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. If changed, the new charge will only apply to riders issued after the change.

     ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (ING LifePay Plus) Rider Charge. The charge for the ING LifePay Plus rider, a living benefit, is deducted quarterly from your contract value:

<R>
Maximum Annual Charge  Current Annual Charge 
1.50%                             1.00% 

</R>

This quarterly charge is a percentage of the ING LifePay Plus Base. 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 following the rider effective 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 effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once 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 the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Lifetime Automatic

For more information about how this rider works, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider.”

Trust and Fund Expenses

As shown in the fund prospectuses and described in the “Fees Deducted by the Funds” section of this prospectus, each fund deducts management fees from the amounts allocated to the fund. In addition, each fund deducts other expenses which may include service fees that may be used to compensate service providers, including the company and its affiliates, for administrative and contract owner services provided on behalf of the fund. Furthermore,

Opportunities

14


certain funds may deduct a distribution or 12b-1 fee, which is used to finance any activity that is primarily intended to result in the sale of fund shares. For a more complete description of the funds’ fees and expenses, review each fund’s prospectus.

The company or its U.S. affiliates receive substantial revenue from each of the funds or the funds’ affiliates, although the amount and types of revenue vary with respect to each of the funds offered through the contract. This revenue is one of several factors we consider when determining the contract fees and charges and whether to offer a fund through our policies. Fund revenue is important to the company’s profitability, and it is generally more profitable for us to offer affiliated funds than to offer unaffiliated funds.

In terms of total dollar amounts received, the greatest amount of revenue generally comes from assets allocated to funds managed by Directed Services LLC or other company affiliates, which funds may or may not also be subadvised by another company affiliate. Assets allocated to funds managed by a company affiliate but subadvised by unaffiliated third parties generally generate the next greatest amount of revenue. Finally, assets allocated to unaffiliated funds generate the least amount of revenue. The company expects to make a profit from this revenue to the extent it exceeds the company’s expenses, including the payment of sales compensation to our distributors.

     Types of Revenue Received from Affiliated Funds. Affiliated funds are (a) funds managed by Directed Services LLC or other company affiliates, which may or may not also be subadvised by another company affiliate; and (b) funds managed by a company affiliate but that are subadvised by unaffiliated third parties.

Revenues received by the company from affiliated funds may include:

  • A share of the management fee deducted from fund assets;
  • Service fees that are deducted from fund assets;
  • For certain share classes, the company or its affiliates may also receive compensation paid out of 12b-1 fees that are deducted from fund assets; and
  • Other revenues that may be based either on an annual percentage of average net assets held in the fund by the company or a percentage of the fund’s management fees.

These revenues may be received as cash payments or according to a variety of financial accounting techniques that are used to allocate revenue and profits across the organization. In the case of affiliated funds subadvised by unaffiliated third parties, any sharing of the management fee between the Company and the affiliated investment adviser is based on the amount of such fee remaining after the subadvisory fee has been paid to the unaffiliated subadviser. Because subadvisory fees vary by subadviser, varying amounts of revenue are retained by the affiliated investment adviser and ultimately shared with the company.

     Types of Revenue Received from Unaffiliated Funds. Revenue received from each of the unaffiliated funds or their affiliates is based on an annual percentage of the average net assets held in that fund by the company. Some unaffiliated funds or their affiliates pay us more than others and some of the amounts we receive may be significant.

Revenues received by the company or its affiliates from unaffiliated funds include:

  • For certain funds, compensation paid from 12b-1 fees or service fees that are deducted from fund assets; and
  • Additional payments for administrative, recordkeeping or other services that we provide to the funds or their affiliates, such as processing purchase and redemption requests, and mailing fund prospectuses, periodic reports and proxy materials. These additional payments do not increase directly or indirectly the fees and expenses shown in each fund prospectus. These additional payments may be used by us to finance distribution of the contract.

These revenues are received as cash payments, and if the unaffiliated fund families currently offered through the contract were individually ranked according to the total amount they paid to the company or its affiliates in 2008, that ranking would be as follows:

  • Fidelity Variable Insurance Product
  • BlackRock Variable Series Funds, Inc.

If the revenues received from affiliated funds were included in this list, payments from Directed Services LLC and other company affiliates would be at the top of the list.

In addition to the types of revenue received from affiliated and unaffiliated funds described above, affiliated and unaffiliated funds and their investment advisers, subadvisers or affiliates may participate at their own expense in company sales conferences or educational and training meetings. In relation to such participation, a fund’s investment adviser, subadviser or affiliate may make fixed dollar payments to help offset the cost of the meetings or sponsor events associated with the meetings. In exchange for these expense offset or sponsorship arrangements, the investment adviser, subadviser or affiliate may receive certain benefits and access opportunities to company sales representatives and wholesalers rather than monetary benefits. These benefits and opportunities include, but are not limited to, co-branded marketing materials, targeted marketing sales opportunities, training opportunities at meetings, training modules for sales personnel and opportunity to host due diligence meetings for representatives and wholesalers.

Certain funds may be structured as “fund of funds.” These funds may have higher fees and expenses than a fund that invests directly in debt and equity securities because they also incur the fees and expenses of the underlying funds in which they invest. These funds are affiliated funds, and the underlying funds in which they invest may be affiliated funds as well. The fund prospectuses disclose the aggregate annual operating expenses of each portfolio and its corresponding underlying fund or funds. The “fund of funds” available under the contract are identified in the list of investment portfolios toward the front of this prospectus.

Please note that certain management personnel and other employees of the company or its affiliates may receive a portion of their total employment compensation based on the amount of net assets allocated to affiliated funds. For more information, please see “Other Contract Provisions – Selling the Contract.”

THE ANNUITY CONTRACT

The Contract described in this prospectus is a deferred combination variable and fixed annuity contract. The Contract provides a means for you to invest in one or more of the available mutual fund portfolios of the Trusts and Funds through Separate Account B. It also provides a means for you to invest in a Fixed Interest Allocation through the Fixed Account. See Appendix C for more information on the Fixed Account. If you have any questions concerning this Contract, contact your registered representative or call our Customer Service Center at (800) 366-0066.

Contract Date and Contract Year

The date the Contract became effective is the contract date. Each 12-month period following the contract date is a contract year.

Contract Owner

You are the contract owner. You have the rights and options described in the Contract. One or more persons may own the Contract. If there are multiple owners named, the age of the oldest owner will determine the applicable death benefit if such death benefit is available for multiple owners. In the event a selected death benefit is not available, the Standard Death Benefit will apply.

Opportunities

16


The death benefit becomes payable when you die. If the owner is a non-natural owner, the death benefit is payable upon the death of the annuitant. In the case of a sole contract owner who dies before the annuity start date, we will pay the beneficiary the death benefit then due. The sole contract owner’s estate will be the beneficiary if no beneficiary has been designated or the beneficiary has predeceased the contract owner. In the case of a joint owner of the Contract dying before the annuity start date, we will designate the surviving contract owner as the beneficiary. This will override any previous beneficiary designation. See “Joint Owner,” below.

Joint Owner

For non-qualified Contracts only, joint owners may be named in a written request before the Contract is in effect. Joint owners may independently exercise transfers and other transactions allowed under the Contract. All other rights of ownership must be exercised by both owners. Joint owners own equal shares of any benefits accruing or payments made to them. All rights of a joint owner end at death of that owner if the other joint owner survives. The entire interest of the deceased joint owner in the Contract will pass to the surviving joint owner and the death benefit will be payable. Joint owners may only select the Standard Death Benefit option. The Earnings Multiplier Benefit rider is not available when there are joint owners.

Any addition or deletion of a joint owner is treated as a change of owner which may affect the amount of the death benefit. See “Change of Contract Owner or Beneficiary,” below. If you have elected an Enhanced Death Benefit, and you add a joint owner after issue, the Enhanced Death Benefit from the date of change will end. If the older joint owner is attained age 85 or under, the Standard Death Benefit will apply. If the older joint owner is attained age 86 or over on the date of the ownership change, the death benefit will be the cash surrender value. The mortality and expense risk charge going forward will reflect the change in death benefit. If you elected the Earnings Multiplier Benefit rider, it will terminate if you add a joint owner after issue. Note that returning a Contract to single owner status will not restore any Enhanced Death Benefit or the earnings multiplier benefit. Unless otherwise specified, the term “age” when used for joint owners shall mean the age of the oldest owner.

Annuity Start Date

The annuity start date is the date you start receiving annuity payments under your Contract. The Contract, like all deferred variable annuity contracts, has two phases: the accumulation phase and the income phase. The accumulation phase is the period between the contract date and the annuity start date. The income phase begins when you start receiving regular annuity payments from your Contract on the annuity start date.

Annuitant

<R>

The annuitant is the person designated by you to be the measuring life in determining annuity payments. On and after May 1, 2009, a joint annuitant may also be designated. You are the annuitant unless you name another annuitant in the application. The annuitant’s age determines when the income phase must begin and the amount of the annuity payments to be paid. In the case of a non-natural owner and joint annuitants, the oldest annuitant’s age is used. The contract owner will receive the annuity benefits of the Contract if the annuitant is living on the annuity start date. You may not change the annuitant after the Contract is in effect except as described below.

If the contract owner is an individual, and the annuitant dies before the annuity start date and you have named a contingent annuitant, the contingent annuitant becomes the annuitant. If the annuitant dies before the annuity start date and there is no contingent annuitant, the contract owner will become the annuitant. In the event of joint owners, the youngest will be the contingent annuitant. The contract owner may designate a new annuitant within 60 days of the death of the annuitant. If the annuitant was the sole contract owner and there is no beneficiary designation, the annuitant’s estate will be the beneficiary.

</R>

If the contract owner is not an individual, and the annuitant dies before the annuity start date, we will pay the designated beneficiary the death benefit then due. If a beneficiary has not been designated, or if there is no designated beneficiary living, the contract owner will be the beneficiary.

Regardless of whether a death benefit is payable, if the annuitant dies and any contract owner is not an individual, distribution rules under federal tax law will apply. You should consult your tax adviser for more information if the contract owner is not an individual.

Opportunities

Beneficiary

The beneficiary is named by you in a written request. The beneficiary is the person who receives any death benefit proceeds. The beneficiary may become the successor contract owner if the contract owner, who is a spouse, dies before the income phase start date. We pay death benefits to the primary beneficiary (unless there are joint owners, in which case death proceeds are payable to the surviving owner(s)).

If the beneficiary dies before the annuitant or the contract owner, we pay the death benefit proceeds to the contingent beneficiary, if any. If there is no surviving beneficiary, we pay the death benefit proceeds to the contract owner’s estate.

One or more persons may be a beneficiary or contingent beneficiary. In the case of more than one beneficiary, we will assume any death benefit proceeds are to be paid in equal shares to the surviving beneficiaries, unless you indicate otherwise in writing.

<R>

Please note that only the Standard Death Benefit is available on a Contract with joint annuitants.

</R>

Change of Contract Owner or Beneficiary

During the annuitant’s lifetime, you may transfer ownership of a non-qualified Contract. A change in ownership may affect the amount of the death benefit, the guaranteed minimum death benefit and/or the death benefit option applied to the contract, the amount of the earnings multiplier benefit, if applicable, and the continuation of any other optional rider that you have elected. The new owner’s age, as of the date of the change, will be used as the basis for determining the applicable benefits and charges (the annuitant’s age for non-natural owners). The new owner’s death will determine when a death benefit is payable (the annuitant’s death for non-natural owners).

If you have elected the Standard Death Benefit option, the minimum guaranteed death benefit will continue if the new owner is age 85 or under on the date of the ownership change. For the Enhanced Death Benefit options, if the new owner is age 79 or under on the date that ownership changes, the minimum guaranteed death benefit will continue. If the new owner is age 80 to 85, the Enhanced Death Benefit will end, and the death benefit will become the Standard Death Benefit. For all death benefit options, 1) if the new owner’s attained age is 86 or over on the date of the ownership change, or 2) if the new owner is not an individual (other than a trust for the benefit of the owner or annuitant), the death benefit will be the cash surrender value. Attained age is the age of the owner at the time the contract is issued plus the number of full years elapsed since the contract date. The mortality and expense risk charge going forward will reflect the change in death benefit. Please note that once a death benefit has been changed due to a change in owner, a subsequent change to a younger owner will not restore any Enhanced Death Benefits.

If you have elected the earnings multiplier benefit rider, and the new owner is under age 76, the rider will continue. The benefit will be adjusted to reflect the attained age of the new owner as the issue age. We will use the Maximum Base and Benefit Base percentages in effect on the original rider date to calculate the benefit. If the new owner is age 76 or over, the rider will terminate. If you have not elected the earnings multiplier benefit rider, the new owner may not add the rider upon the change of ownership. If you have elected another optional rider, the rider will terminate upon a change of ownership.

An ownership change may cause a living benefit rider to terminate. Such depends on the rider and whether spousal continuation is allowed. For more information about an ownership change with the MGIB rider, please see “Living Benefit Riders – Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit (the “MGIB rider”) Rider.” For more information with the ING LifePay Plus rider, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider.” And for more information with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider.”

A change of owner likely has tax consequences. See “Federal Tax Considerations” in this prospectus.

You have the right to change beneficiaries during the annuitant’s lifetime unless you have designated an irrevocable beneficiary. If you have designated an irrevocable beneficiary, you and the irrevocable beneficiary may have to act

together to exercise some of the rights and options under the Contract. In the event of joint owners all must agree to change a beneficiary.

In the event of a death claim, we will honor the form of payment of the death benefit specified by the beneficiary to the extent permitted under Section 72(s) of the Tax Code. You may also restrict a beneficiary’s right to elect an income phase payment option or receive a lump-sum payment. If so, such rights or options will not be available to the beneficiary.

All requests for changes must be in writing and submitted to our Customer Service Center. Please date your requests. The change will be effective as of the day we receive the request. The change will not affect any payment made or action taken by us before recording the change.

Purchase and Availability of the Contract

We are no longer offering the Contract for sale to new purchasers.

We will issue a Contract only if both the annuitant and the contract owner are age 75 or younger at the time of application. But the Contract may not be available to all ages through all broker-dealers.

The initial premium payment must be $5,000 or more ($1,500 for qualified Contracts). You may make additional payments of $100 or more ($50 for qualified Contracts) at any time after the free look period and up to the contract anniversary after your 86th birthday. Under certain circumstances, we may waive the minimum premium payment requirement. We may also change the minimum initial or additional premium requirements for certain group or sponsored arrangements. An initial or additional premium payment that would cause the contract value of all annuities that you maintain with us to exceed $1,500,000 requires our prior approval.

The Contract is designed for people seeking long-term tax-deferred accumulation of assets, generally for retirement or other long-term purposes. The tax-deferred feature is more attractive to people in high federal and state tax brackets. You should not buy this Contract: (i) if you are looking for a short-term investment; (ii) if you cannot risk getting back less money than you put in; or (iii) if your assets are in a plan which provides for tax-deferral and you see no other reason to purchase this Contract. When considering an investment in the Contract, you should consult with your investment professional about your financial goals, investment time horizon and risk tolerance.

Replacing an existing insurance contract with this Contract may not be beneficial to you. Before purchasing the Contract, determine whether your existing contract will be subject to any fees or penalties upon surrender. Also, compare the fees, charges, coverage provisions and limitations, if any, of your existing contract with those of the Contract described in this prospectus.

<R>

IRAs and other qualified plans already have the tax-deferral feature found in this Contract. For an additional cost, the Contract provides other features and benefits including death benefits and the ability to receive a lifetime income. You should not purchase a qualified Contract unless you want these other features and benefits, taking into account their cost. See “Charges and Fees” in this prospectus. If you are considering an Enhanced Death Benefit Option and/or the Earnings Multiplier Benefit rider and your contract will be an IRA, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit” in this prospectus. If this contract is issued as an IRA, no contributions may be made for the taxable year in which you attain age 70 ½.

Crediting of Premium Payments

We will process your initial premium within 2 business days after receipt, if the application and all information necessary for processing the Contract are complete. We will process subsequent premium payments within 1 business day if we receive all information necessary. In certain states we also accept initial and additional premium payments by wire order. Wire transmittals must be accompanied by sufficient electronically transmitted data. We may retain your initial premium payment for up to 5 business days while attempting to complete an incomplete application. If the application cannot be completed within this period, we will inform you of the reasons for the delay. We will also return the premium payment immediately unless you direct us to hold the premium payment until the application is completed. If you choose to have us hold the premium payment, it will be held in a non-interest bearing account.

We will allocate your initial payment according to the instructions you specified. If a subaccount is not available or requested in error, we will make inquiry about a replacement subaccount. If we are unable to reach you or your representative within 5 days, we will consider the application incomplete. For initial premium payments designated for a subaccount of Separate Account B, we will credit the payment at the accumulation unit value next determined after we receive your premium payment and the completed application. Once the completed application is received, we will allocate the payment to the subaccounts of Separate Account B specified by you within 2 business days.

If your premium payment was transmitted by wire order from your broker/dealer, we will follow one of the following two procedures after we receive and accept the wire order and investment instructions. The procedure we follow depends on state availability and the procedures of your broker/dealer.

1)      If either your state or broker/dealer do not permit us to issue a Contract without an application, we reserve the right to rescind the Contract if we do not receive and accept a properly completed application or enrollment form within 5 days of the premium payment. If we do not receive the application or form within 5 days of the premium payment, we will refund the contract value plus any charges we deducted, and the Contract will be voided. Some states require that we return the premium paid.
2)      If your state and broker/dealer allow us to issue a Contract without an application, we will issue and mail the Contract to you or your representative, together with a Contract Acknowledgement and Delivery Statement for your execution. Until our Customer Service Center receives the executed Contract Acknowledgement and Delivery Statement, neither you nor the broker/dealer may execute any financial transactions on your Contract unless they are requested in writing by you. We may require additional information before complying with your request (e.g., signature guarantee).

We will ask about any missing information related to subsequent payments. We will allocate the subsequent payment(s) pro-rata according to the current variable subaccount allocation unless you specify otherwise. Any fixed allocation(s) will not be considered in the pro-rata calculations. If a subaccount is no longer available (including due to a fund purchase restriction) or requested in error, we will allocate the subsequent payment(s) proportionally among the other subaccount(s) in your current allocation. For any subsequent premium payments, we will credit the payment designated for a subaccount of Separate Account B at the accumulation unit value next determined after receipt of your premium payment and instructions.

Once we allocate your premium payment to the subaccounts selected by you, we convert the premium payment into accumulation units. We divide the amount of the premium payment allocated to a particular subaccount by the value of an accumulation unit for the subaccount to determine the number of accumulation units of the subaccount to be held in Separate Account B with respect to your Contract. The net investment results of each subaccount vary with its investment performance.

In some states, we may require that an initial premium designated for a subaccount of Separate Account B or the Fixed Account be allocated to a subaccount specially designated by the Company (currently, the Liquid Assets subaccount) during the free look period. After the free look period, we will convert your contract value (your initial premium plus any earnings less any expenses) into accumulation units of the subaccounts you previously selected. The accumulation units will be allocated based on the accumulation unit value next computed for each subaccount. Initial premiums designated for Fixed Interest Allocations will be allocated to a Fixed Interest Allocation with the

Opportunities

20


guaranteed interest period you have chosen; however, in the future we may allocate the premiums to the specially designated subaccount during the free look period.

We may also refuse to accept certain forms of premium payments or loan repayments, if applicable, (traveler’s checks, for example) or restrict the amount of certain forms of premium payments or loan repayments. In addition, we may require information as to why a particular form of payment was used (third party checks, for example) and the source of the funds of such payment in order to determine whether or not we will accept it. Use of an unacceptable form of payment may result in us returning your premium payment and not issuing the contract.

Administrative Procedures

We may accept a request for Contract service in writing, by telephone, or other approved electronic means, subject to our administrative procedures, which vary depending on the type of service requested and may include proper completion of certain forms, providing appropriate identifying information, and/or other administrative requirements. We will process your request at the contract value next determined only after you have met all administrative requirements. Please be advised that the risk of a fraudulent transaction is increased with telephonic or electronic instructions (for example, a facsimile withdrawal request form), even if appropriate identifying information is provided.

Contract Value

We determine your contract value on a daily basis beginning on the contract date. Your contract value is the sum of (i) the contract value in the Fixed Interest Allocations, and (ii) the contract value in each subaccount in which you are invested.

     Contract Value in Fixed Interest Allocations. The contract value in your Fixed Interest Allocation is the sum of premium payments allocated to the Fixed Interest Allocation under the Contract, plus contract value transferred to the Fixed Interest Allocation, plus credited interest, minus any transfers and withdrawals from the Fixed Interest Allocation (including any Market Value Adjustment applied to such transfer or withdrawal), contract fees (including, in some cases, fees for optional benefit riders) and premium taxes.

     Contract Value in the Subaccounts. On the contract date, the contract value in the subaccount in which you are invested is equal to the initial premium paid and designated to be allocated to the subaccount. On the contract date, we allocate your contract value to each subaccount and/or a Fixed Interest Allocation specified by you, unless the Contract is issued in a state that requires the return of premium payments during the free look period. In such a case, the portion of your initial premium not allocated to a Fixed Interest Allocation may be allocated to a subaccount specially designated by the Company during the free look period for this purpose (currently, the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio).

On each business day after the contract date, we calculate the amount of contract value in each subaccount as follows:

1)      We take the contract value in the subaccount at the end of the preceding business day.
2)      We multiply (1) by the subaccount’s Net Rate of Return since the preceding business day.
3)      We add (1) and (2).
4)      We add to (3) any additional premium payments, and then add or subtract any transfers to or from that subaccount.
5)      We subtract from (4) any withdrawals and any related charges, and then subtract any contract fees and premium taxes.

Cash Surrender Value

The cash surrender value is the amount you receive when you surrender the Contract. The cash surrender value will fluctuate daily based on the investment results of the subaccounts in which you are invested and interest credited to Fixed Interest Allocations and any Market Value Adjustment. See Appendix C for a description of the calculation

Opportunities

21


of cash surrender value under any Fixed Interest Allocation. We do not guarantee any minimum cash surrender value. On any date during the accumulation phase, we calculate the cash surrender value as follows: we start with your contract value, adjust for any Market Value Adjustment, and then we deduct any surrender charge, any charge for premium taxes, any redemption fees, the annual contract administrative fee (unless waived), any optional benefit rider charge, and any other charges incurred but not yet deducted.

<R>

     Surrendering to Receive the Cash Surrender Value. You may surrender the Contract at any time while the annuitant is living and before the annuity start date. A surrender is effective on the date we receive your written request and the Contract at our Customer Service Center. After we receive all paperwork required for us to process your surrender, we will determine and pay the cash surrender value at the price next determined. Once paid, all benefits under the Contract will terminate. For administrative purposes, we will transfer your money to a specially designated subaccount (currently the Liquid Assets subaccount) prior to processing the surrender. This transfer will have no effect on your cash surrender value. You may receive the cash surrender value in a single sum payment or apply it under one or more annuity options. We will usually pay the cash surrender value within 7 days.

</R>

Consult your tax adviser regarding the tax consequences associated with surrendering your Contract. A surrender made before you reach age 59½ may result in a 10% tax penalty. See “Federal Tax Considerations” for more details.

Addition, Deletion or Substitution of Subaccounts and Other Changes

We may make additional subaccounts available to you under the Contract. These subaccounts will invest in investment portfolios we find suitable for your Contract. We may also withdraw or substitute investment portfolios, subject to the conditions in your Contract, compliance with regulatory requirements, and subject to SEC approval.

We may amend the Contract to conform to applicable laws or governmental regulations. If we feel that investment in any of the investment portfolios has become inappropriate to the purposes of the Contract, we may, with approval of the SEC (and any other regulatory agency, if required) combine two or more accounts or substitute another portfolio for existing and future investments. If you elected the dollar cost averaging, systematic withdrawals or automatic rebalancing programs, or if you have other outstanding instructions and we substitute or otherwise eliminate a portfolio subject to those instructions, we will execute your instructions using the substituted or proposed replacement portfolio, unless you request otherwise. The substitute or proposed replacement portfolio may have higher fees and charges than any portfolio it replaces. Subject to SEC approval, we reserve the right to: (i) deregister Separate Account B under the 1940 Act; (ii) operate Separate Account B as a management company under the 1940 Act if it is operating as a unit investment trust; (iii) operate Separate Account B as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act if it is operating as a managed separate account; (iv) restrict or eliminate any voting rights as to Separate Account B; and (v) combine Separate Account B with other accounts.

We will provide you with written notice before we make any of these changes.

Fixed Interest Allocation (The Fixed Account or Fixed Interest Division)

<R>

The Fixed Account is a segregated asset account which contains the assets that support a contract owner’s Fixed Interest Allocations. See Appendix C and the Fixed Account II prospectus for more information. In the event the Fixed Account is not available in your state, then the Fixed Interest Allocation is the Fixed Interest Division. Accordingly, see Appendix D, instead for more information. To obtain a copy of the Fixed Account II prospectus, write to our Customer Service Center at P.O. Box 9271, Des Moines, Iowa 50306-9271 or call (800) 366-0066, or access the SEC’s website (http://www.sec.gov). The Offering Brochure for the Fixed Interest Division is also available by contacting our Customer Service Center.

LIVING BENEFIT RIDERS

Some features and benefits of the Contract, if available, are available by rider for an additional charge. Once elected, the riders generally may not be cancelled. You may not remove the rider and charges will be assessed regardless of the performance of your Contract. Please see “Charges and Fees — Optional Rider Charges” for information on rider charges.

The optional riders may not be available for all investors. You should analyze each rider thoroughly and understand it completely before you select one. The optional riders do not guarantee any return of principal or premium payments and do not guarantee performance of any specific investment portfolio under the contract. You should consult a qualified financial adviser in evaluating the riders. Our Customer Service Center may be able to answer your questions. The telephone number is (800) 366-0066

The Contract has three living benefit riders offering protection against the investment risks with your Contract:

  • The Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit rider, which you may wish to purchase if you are concerned about having a minimum amount of income in annuitizing your Contract;
  • The ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit rider, which you may wish to purchase if you are concerned that you may outlive your income; and
  • The ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit rider, which you may wish to purchase if you are married and concerned that you and your spouse may outlive your income.

These living benefit riders are described further below. You may only add one living benefit rider to your Contract. We do, however, reserve the right to allow the purchase of more than one living benefit rider in the future. You should not purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider with multiple owners, unless the owners are spouses. More information about earlier versions of the guaranteed withdrawal benefit riders (including lifetime versions) is in the appendices.

Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit Rider (the “MGIB rider”). The MGIB rider is an optional benefit which guarantees a minimum amount of annuity income will be available to you if you annuitize on the MGIB Date (as defined below), regardless of fluctuating market conditions. The minimum guaranteed amount of annuity income will depend on the amount of premiums you pay during the first five contract years after you purchase the rider, the amount of contract value you allocate or transfer to Special Funds (as defined below) or Excluded Funds (as defined below), the MGIB Rate (as defined below), the adjustment for Special Fund or Excluded Fund transfers, and any withdrawals you take while the MGIB rider is in effect. Thus, investing in Special Funds or Excluded Funds may limit the benefit under the MGIB rider.

     Purchase. To purchase the MGIB rider, you must be age 79 or younger on the rider date and the ten-year waiting period must end at or prior to the latest annuity start date. Some broker dealers may limit availability of the rider to younger ages. The MGIB rider must be purchased (i) on the contract date, or (ii) within thirty days after the contract date. For contracts issued more than 30 days before the date this rider first became available in your state, the Company may, in its discretion, allow purchase of this rider during the 30-day period preceding the first contract anniversary after the date the MGIB rider is available in your state. There is a ten-year waiting period before you can annuitize under the MGIB rider.

     Rider Date. The rider date is the date the optional benefit rider becomes effective. The rider date is also the contract date if you purchase the rider when the Contract is issued.

Opportunities

23


     No Cancellation. Once you purchase a rider, you may not cancel it unless you cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period, surrender, annuitize or otherwise terminate the Contract. These events automatically cancel any rider. Once the Contract continues beyond the free look period, you may not cancel the rider. The Company may, at its discretion, cancel and/or replace a rider at your request in order to renew or reset a rider.

     Termination. The MGIB rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefit offered by the MGIB rider is intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The MGIB rider automatically terminates if you:

  • annuitize, surrender or otherwise terminate your Contract during the accumulation phase;
  • you die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple contract owners, or at death of annuitant if contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract;
  • the contract value is insufficient to pay the charge for the MGIB rider; or
  • there is a change in contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation upon your death).

     Rider Charge. The current charge we deduct under the MGIB Rider is 0.75% annually of the MGIB Charge Base. The MGIB Charge Base is the greater of (1) and (2) below, where:

1)      Is the lesser of the Maximum MGIB Rollup Base and the sum of (a), (b) and (c) where:

For definitions of the Maximum MGIB Rollup Base, the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds, the MGIB Rollup Base for Special Funds, the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds, the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds, and the MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds, see the “Calculations of the MGIB Rollup Bases” and “Calculation of the MGIB Ratchet Bases” below.

     Fund Categories. The MGIB Benefit Base (as defined below) is tracked separately for Covered Funds, Special Funds and Excluded Funds. The following investment options are currently designated as Special Funds for purposes of calculating the MGIB Benefit Base:

  • ING Liquid Assets Portfolio; and
  • Fixed Interest Allocation.

Please note that the ProFunds VP Rising Rates Opportunity and ING Limited Maturity Bond portfolios are also Special Funds, but closed to new allocations, effective April 30, 2007 and March 12, 2004, respectively.

No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds. Covered Funds are any investment options not designated as Special Funds or Excluded Funds. These fund categories apply to all calculations under the MGIB rider. Please see “The Trust and Funds – Covered Funds, Special Funds and Excluded Funds.”

For Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased before August 21, 2006 (subject to availability), the ING VP Intermediate Bond Portfolio is designated as a Special Fund.

     Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. In order to mitigate the insurance risk inherent in our guarantee to provide you a guaranteed minimum amount of annuity income if you annuitize on the MGIB date (subject to the terms and restrictions of the MGIB rider), we require that your contract value be allocated in accordance with certain limitations. In general, to the extent that you choose not to invest in the Accepted Funds, we require that a proportion of the amount not so invested be invested in the Fixed Allocation Funds. We will require this allocation regardless of your investment instructions to the contract, as described below.

For Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased on and after August 21, 2006 (subject to availability), there is an allocation requirement. If the contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds (as defined below) is less than a percentage of the total contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds (as defined below) on any MGIB Rebalancing Date (as defined below), we will automatically rebalance the contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that the appropriate percentage of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. This is called Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing and the percentage is stated in your Contract. Currently, the minimum Fixed Allocation Fund percentage is zero. Accepted Funds are excluded from this rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis among the Other Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date.

The MGIB Rebalancing Dates occur on each Contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you; and
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Currently, the Accepted Funds are:

You may allocate contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Rebalancing.

</R>

If the MGIB rider is not continued under the spousal continuation right, when available, the Fixed Allocation Fund will be reclassified as a Special Fund as of the Contract continuation date if it would otherwise be designated as a Special Fund for purposes of the Contract’s death benefits. For purposes of calculating any applicable death benefit guaranteed under the Contract any allocation of contract value to the Fixed Allocation Funds will be considered a Covered Fund while the rider is in effect.

All investment portfolios available under the Contract that are not Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment portfolio restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I –Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.”

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in it. By electing to purchase the MGIB rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the MGIB rider if you do not wish to have your contract value reallocated in this manner.

     MGIB Benefit Base. The MGIB Benefit Base (as defined below) is only a calculation used to determine the MGIB annuity income. The MGIB Benefit Base does not represent a contract value, nor does it guarantee performance of the subaccounts in which you are invested. It is also not used in determining the amount of your cash surrender value and death benefits. Any reset of contract value under provisions of the Contract or other riders will not increase the MGIB Benefit Base or Maximum MGIB Rollup Base (as defined below). On the MGIB Date, your MGIB Benefit Base is the greater of (1) and (2), where:

1)      Is the lesser of the Maximum MGIB Rollup Base (as defined below) and the sum of (a), (b), and (c)
  where:     
  (a)      is the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds; and

Opportunities

26


  (b)      is the MGIB Rollup Base for Special Funds; and
  (c)      is the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds; and
2)      Is the sum of (a) and (b) where:
  (a)      is the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds (as defined below); and
  (b)      is the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds.

The MGIB Benefit Base calculation differs from the MGIB Charge Base calculation because it uses the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds rather than the MGIB Ratchet Base and MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Excluded Funds. This means that the amount on which you pay charges for the MGIB rider may be higher than the amount used to calculate your benefit under the MGIB rider.

     Calculation of MGIB Rollup Bases. The Maximum MGIB Rollup Base is 250% of eligible premiums adjusted pro-rata for withdrawals, subject to availability (300% otherwise and for Contracts with the MGIB rider purchased before August 21, 2006). This means that the Maximum MGIB Rollup Base is reduced for withdrawals by the same proportion that the withdrawal reduces the contract value. The Maximum MGIB Rollup Base is not allocated by fund category.

The MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Covered Funds equals the eligible premiums allocated to Covered Funds, adjusted for subsequent withdrawals and transfers taken or made while the MGIB rider is in effect, accumulated at the MGIB Rate to the earlier of the oldest owner reaching age 80 and the MGIB Rollup Base reaching the Maximum MGIB Rollup Base, and at 0% thereafter.

The MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Special Funds equals the eligible premiums allocated to Special Funds, adjusted for subsequent withdrawals and transfers taken or made while the MGIB rider is in effect. The MGIB Rate does not apply to the MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Special Funds, so the MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Special Funds does not accumulate.

The MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Excluded Funds equals the eligible premiums allocated to Excluded Funds, adjusted for subsequent withdrawals and transfers taken or made while the MGIB rider is in effect, accumulated at the MGIB rate to the earlier of the oldest owner reaching age 80 and the MGIB Rollup Base reaching the Maximum MGIB Rollup Base, and at 0% thereafter. The MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Excluded Funds is used only for transfer adjustments and rider charges. It is not included in the MGIB Rollup Base used to determine benefits.

Eligible premiums are those premiums added more than 5 years before the earliest MGIB Date. This means that, generally, premiums must be paid within five years of purchasing the MGIB rider to be considered eligible premiums. Premiums paid after that are excluded from the MGIB Rollup Bases.

The MGIB Rate is currently 7%. The MGIB Rate is an annual effective rate. We may, at our discretion, discontinue offering this rate. The MGIB Rate will not change for those contracts that have already purchased the MGIB rider.

<R>

Withdrawals reduce each MGIB Rollup Base on a pro-rata basis. The percentage reduction in the MGIB Rollup Base for each Fund category (i.e., Covered Funds, Special Funds or Excluded Funds) equals the percentage reduction in contract value in that Fund category resulting from the withdrawal (including surrender charge and market value adjustment). This means that the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds, the MGIB Rollup Base for Special Funds or the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds is reduced for withdrawals by the same proportion that the withdrawal reduces the contract value allocated to Covered Funds, Special Funds or Excluded Funds. For example, if the contract value in Covered Funds is reduced by 25% as the result of a withdrawal (including surrender charge and market value adjustment), the MGIB Rollup Base allocated to Covered Funds is also reduced by 25% (rather than by the amount of the withdrawal).

When you make transfers between Covered Funds, Special Funds and Excluded Funds, net transfers from a fund category will reduce the applicable MGIB Rollup Base for that fund category on a pro-rata basis. This means a reduction by the same percentage as the transfer bears to the contract value in the fund category. For example, if the contract value in Covered Funds is $1000 and the transfer from Covered Funds to Excluded Funds is $250, then the contract value in Covered Funds is reduced by 25%. In cases where the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds is $1200, the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds is also reduced by 25%, or $300, rather than by the amount of the transfer, or $250. In addition, the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds is increased by the reduction in the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds, or $300.

In a case where the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds is greater than the contract value in Covered Funds, a transfer from Covered Funds will result in the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds being reduced by a dollar amount that is higher than the dollar amount of the transfer. A higher reduction to the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds will have a larger negative impact on the MGIB Benefit Base, potentially reducing the minimum guaranteed amount of annuity income upon annuitization under the MGIB rider. This means the benefit you receive under the MGIB rider will not be as great because of the transfer.

Net transfers from Excluded Funds will also reduce the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. But the resulting increase in the MGIB Rollup Base for Covered Funds or Special Funds, as applicable, will equal the lesser of the contract value transferred and the reduction in the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds. What this means, if in the previous example the transfer was from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds, is there would be no change in the value of your MGIB Benefit Base because of the transfer – the amount of the transfer between the fund categories is the same, $250, because the MGIB Benefit Base calculation is based on the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds, versus the calculation basis for Excluded Funds with the MGIB Charge Base. The MGIB Charge Base calculation is instead based on the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded Funds. As a result, this same transfer, having no change in the value of your MGIB Benefit Base, would result in the MGIB Charge Base being reduced. The net effect of this transfer: You pay less for the same minimum guaranteed amount of annuity income upon annuitization of the MGIB rider.

Calculation of MGIB Ratchet Bases. The MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds equals:

1)      on the rider date, eligible premiums or the contract value, (if the rider is added after the contract date,)
  allocated      to Covered Funds and Special Funds.
2)      on each “quarterly anniversary date” prior to attainment of age 90, the MGIB Ratchet Base for
  Covered      Funds and Special Funds is set equal to the greater of:
  (a)      the current contract value allocated to Covered Funds and Special Funds (after any deductions occurring on that date); and
  (b)      the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds from the most recent prior quarterly anniversary date, adjusted for any new eligible premiums, withdrawals attributable to Covered Funds and Special Funds, and transfers.
3)      at other times, the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds is the corresponding
  MGIB      Ratchet Base from the prior quarterly anniversary date, adjusted for subsequent eligible
  premiums,      withdrawals attributable to Covered Funds and Special Funds, and transfers.

The MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds has a corresponding definition with respect to amounts allocated to Excluded Funds. The MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds is used only for transfer adjustments and MGIB rider charges. It is not included in the MGIB Ratchet Base used to determine benefits.

Eligible premiums are those premiums added more than five years before the earliest MGIB Date. This means that, generally, premiums must be paid within five years of purchasing the MGIB rider to be considered eligible premiums. Premiums paid after that are excluded from the MGIB Ratchet Bases.

A “quarterly anniversary date” is the date three months from the contract date that falls on the same date in the month as the contract date. For example, if the contract date is February 12, the quarterly anniversary date is May 12. If there is no corresponding date in the month, the quarterly anniversary date will be the last date of such month. If the quarterly anniversary date falls on a weekend or holiday, we will use the value as of the subsequent business day.

Withdrawals reduce each MGIB Ratchet Base on a pro-rata basis. The percentage reduction in the MGIB Ratchet Base for each fund category (i.e., Covered Funds and Special Funds or Excluded Funds) equals the percentage reduction in contract value in that fund category resulting from the withdrawal (including surrender charges and market value adjustment). This means that the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds or the MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds is reduced for withdrawals by the same proportion that the withdrawal (including surrender charges and market value adjustment) reduces the contract value allocated to Covered Funds and Special Funds or Excluded Funds. For example, if the contract value in Covered Funds and Special Funds is reduced by 25% as the result of a withdrawal (including surrender charges and market value adjustment), the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds is also reduced by 25% (rather than by the amount of the withdrawal).

When you make transfers between Covered Funds or Special Funds and Excluded Funds, net transfers will reduce the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds on a pro-rata basis. This means a reduction by the same percentage as the transfer bears to the contract value in Covered Funds and Special Funds. For example, if the contract value in Covered Funds and Special Funds is $1000 and a transfer from Covered Funds or Special Funds to Excluded Funds is $250, then the contract value in Covered Funds and Special Funds is reduced by 25%.

In addition, the MGIB Rollup Base for Excluded funds is increased by the reduction in the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds, or $300.

In a case where the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds is greater than the contract value in Covered Funds and Special Funds, a transfer from Covered Funds and Special Funds will result in the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds being reduced by a dollar amount that is higher than the dollar amount of the transfer. A higher reduction to the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds will have a larger negative impact on the MGIB Benefit Base, potentially reducing the minimum guaranteed amount of annuity income upon annuitization under the MGIB rider. This means the benefit you receive under the MGIB rider will not be as great because of the transfer.

Net transfers from Excluded Funds will also reduce the MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. But the resulting increase in the MGIB Ratchet Base for Covered Funds and Special Funds will equal the lesser of the contract value transferred and the reduction in the MGIB Ratchet Base for Excluded Funds. What this means, if in the previous example the transfer was from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds, is there would be no change in the value of your MGIB Benefit Base because of the transfer – the amount of the transfer between the fund categories is the same, $250, because the MGIB Benefit Base calculation is based on the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds, versus the calculation basis for Excluded Funds with the MGIB Charge Base.

As a result, this same transfer, having no change in the value of your MGIB Benefit Base, would result in the MGIB Charge Base being reduced. The net effect of this transfer: You pay less for the same minimum guaranteed amount of annuity income upon annuitization of the MGIB rider.

     MGIB Date. If you purchased the MGIB rider on the contract date or added the MGIB rider within 30 days following the contract date, the MGIB Date is the contract anniversary on or after the tenth contract anniversary when you decide to exercise your right to annuitize under the MGIB rider. If you added the MGIB rider at any other time, your MGIB Date is the contract anniversary occurring at least 10 years after the date when you decide to exercise your right to annuitize under the MGIB rider.

     MGIB Annuity Income. Ordinarily, the amount of income that will be available to you on the annuity start date is based on your contract value, the annuity option you selected and the guaranteed income factors or the

Opportunities

29


income factors in effect on the date you annuitize. If you purchase the MGIB rider, the amount of income that will be available to you upon annuitization on the MGIB Date is the greatest of:

1)      your annuity income based on your contract value on the MGIB Date adjusted for any market value adjustment (see Appendix C) applied to the guaranteed income factors specified in your Contract for the annuity option you selected;
2)      your annuity income based on your contract value on the MGIB Date adjusted for any market value adjustment (see Appendix C) applied to the then-current income factors in effect for the annuity option you selected; or
3)      the MGIB annuity income based on your MGIB Benefit Base on the MGIB Date applied to the MGIB income factors specified in your rider for the MGIB annuity option you selected. Prior to applying the MGIB income factors, we will adjust the MGIB Benefit Base for any surrender charge, premium tax recovery and Market Value Adjustment (see Appendix C) that would otherwise apply at annuitization.

     MGIB Income Factors. The guaranteed factors contained in the MGIB rider generally provide lower payout per $1,000 of value applied than the guaranteed income factors found in your Contract. Although the minimum income provided under the rider can be determined in advance, the contract value in the future is unknown, so the income provided under a contract with the MGIB rider attached may be greater or less than the income that would be provided under the Contract without the rider. Generally, the income calculated under the MGIB rider will be greater than the income provided under the Contract whenever the MGIB Benefit Base is sufficiently in excess of the contract value to offset the additional conservatism reflected in the MGIB rider’s income factors compared to those in the Contract. The income factors in the MGIB rider generally reflect a lower interest rate and more conservative mortality than the income factors in the Contract. The degree of relative excess that the income factors require to produce more income will vary for each individual circumstance. If the contract value exceeds the MGIB Benefit Base at time of annuitization, the Contract will always produce greater income than the MGIB rider. Please see “Appendix G — Examples of Minimum Guaranteed Income Benefit Calculation.”

     MGIB Annuity Options. Prior to your latest annuity start date, you may choose to exercise your right to receive payments under the MGIB rider. Payments under the rider begin on the MGIB Date. We require a 10-year waiting period before you can annuitize the MGIB rider benefit. The MGIB must be exercised in the 30-day period prior to the end of any contract anniversary that occurs at least ten years after the MGIB rider date. At your request, the Company may, at its discretion, extend the latest contract annuity start date without extending the MGIB Date. The following are the MGIB annuity options available under the MGIB Rider:

1)      Income for Life (Single Life or Joint Life with 100% Survivor) and 10-20 year fixed period.
2)      Income for 20-30 year fixed period.
3)      Any other annuity option offered by the Company in conjunction with the MGIB rider on the MGIB Date.

Once during the life of the Contract, you have the option to elect to apply up to 50% of the MGIB Benefit Base to one of the MGIB annuity options available under the MGIB rider. This option may only be exercised in the 30 day period prior to a contract anniversary at or after the end of the waiting period. The portion of the MGIB Benefit Base so applied will be used to determine the MGIB income, as is otherwise described in the prospectus. The contract value will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. Any subsequent exercise of your right to receive payments under the MGIB rider must be for 100% of the remaining value. The exercise of this partial annuitization of the MGIB Benefit Base does not affect your right to annuitize remaining value under the Contract without regard to the MGIB rider. The amount applied to the partial annuitization will be treated as a withdrawal for purposes of adjusting contract and MGIB rider values. This means the contract and MGIB rider values will be adjusted on a pro-rata basis. See “Calculations of MGIB Rollup Bases” and “Calculation of MGIB Ratchet Bases,” above. Surrender charges will apply to amounts applied to partial annuitization.

Please note that if you elect partial annuitization, annuity payments received will be treated as withdrawals by us. Please consult your tax adviser before making this election, as the Tax Code is unclear on the taxation of partial annuitization.

     Notification. On or before 30 days prior to each possible MGIB Date, we will provide you with a notification which will include an estimate of the amount of MGIB annuity benefit available if you choose to exercise it. We will determine the actual amount of the MGIB annuity benefit as of the MGIB Date.

     Change of Owner and Annuitant. The MGIB rider will terminate upon a change of ownership unless the change is due to spousal continuation at the time of the owner’s death. Once you purchase the MGIB rider, the annuitant may not be changed except when an annuitant who is not a contract owner dies prior to annuitization. In such a case, a new annuitant may be named in accordance with the provisions of your Contract. The MGIB Benefit Base is unaffected and continues to accumulate.

     Death of Owner. The MGIB rider and the MGIB rider charges automatically terminate if you die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple contract owners, or at death of the annuitant if the contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

The MGIB rider does not restrict or limit your right to annuitize the Contract at any time permitted under the Contract. The MGIB rider does not restrict your right to annuitize the Contract using contract income factors that may be higher than the MGIB rider income factors.

The benefits associated with the MGIB rider are available only if you annuitize your Contract under the rider and in accordance with the provisions set forth above. Annuitizing using the MGIB may result in a more favorable stream of income payments, and different tax consequences, under your Contract. Because the MGIB rider income factors are generally more conservative than the Contract income factors, the level of lifetime income that it guarantees may be less than the level that might be provided by the application of your Contract value to the Contract’s applicable annuity factors. You should consider all of your options at the time you begin the income phase of your Contract.

ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider. The ING LifePay Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of the annuitant, even if these withdrawals reduce your Contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are concerned that you may outlive your income.

<R>

Please Note: We introduced the ING LifePay Plus rider on August 20, 2007 and launched changes to it on April 28, 2008 and January 12, 2009, subject to state approval where applicable. The form of the ING LifePay Plus rider available to you depends on state availability.

The below information pertains to the new form of the ING LifePay Plus rider available for sale beginning on May 1, 2009 in states where approved. If this form of the ING LifePay Plus rider is not yet approved for sale in your state, then please see Appendix J for the information about the form of the ING LifePay Plus rider available to you.

     Eligibility. The annuitant must be the owner or one of the owners, unless the owner is a non-natural owner. Joint annuitants are not allowed. The maximum issue age is 80 (owner and annuitant must age qualify). The issue age is the age of the owner (or the annuitant if there are joint owners or the owner is non-natural) on the rider effective date. The ING LifePay Plus rider is not available for purchase with the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit. The ING LifePay Plus rider is subject to broker/dealer availability. Please note that the ING LifePay Plus rider will not be issued until your contract value is allocated in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below.

Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 are eligible for the ING LifePay Plus rider, subject to the conditions, requirements and limitations of the prior paragraph. Such Contracts must not already have a living benefit rider. There is an election form for this purpose. Please contact the Customer Service Center for more information.

</R>

Rider Effective Date. The rider effective date is the date that coverage under the ING LifePay Plus rider begins. If you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider when the Contract is issued, the rider effective date is also the Contract date. If the ING LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue, the rider effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once each quarter of a contract year from the contract date.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you: a) cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period; b) surrender the Contract; c) begin the income phase and start receiving annuity payments; or d) otherwise terminate the Contract pursuant to its terms. These events automatically cancel the ING LifePay Plus rider.

Termination. The ING LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you: Terminate your Contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender your Contract, or begin receiving income phase payments in lieu of payments under the ING LifePay Plus rider; or Die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract. The ING LifePay Plus rider also terminates with a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation on your death). Other circumstances that may cause the ING LifePay Plus rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

<R>

     Highlights. This paragraph introduces the terminology of the ING LifePay Plus rider and how its components generally work together. Benefits and guarantees are subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the ING LifePay Plus rider. More detailed information follows below, with the capitalized words that are underlined indicating headings for ease of reference. The ING LifePay Plus rider guarantees an amount available for withdrawal from the Contract in any contract year once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins – we use the ING LifePay Plus Base as part of the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is available for withdrawals at your discretion or systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Also, the ING LifePay Plus rider offers the Income Optimizer, which is the option to elect to receive systematic installments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal over the annuitant’s life. The guarantee continues when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, at which time we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (since Contract value would be zero) until the annuitant’s death. The ING LifePay Plus Base is eligible for Annual Ratchets and Step-ups, and subject to adjustment for any Excess Withdrawals. The ING LifePay Plus rider has an allowance for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that would otherwise be Excess Withdrawals. The ING LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING LifePay Plus rider allows for spousal continuation.

     ING LifePay Plus Base. The ING LifePay Plus Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider: on the Contract date – equal to the initial premium; or after the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the effective date of the rider.

</R>

The ING LifePay Plus Base is increased, dollar for dollar, by any subsequent premiums. We refer to the ING LifePay Plus Base as the MGWB Base in the ING LifePay Plus rider.

Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including for payment of third-party investment advisory fees, have no impact on the ING LifePay Plus Base. These withdrawals will not incur surrender charges or a negative Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations.

Say for example the current Contract value is $90,000 on a Contract with the ING LifePay Plus rider in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The ING LifePay Plus Base is $100,000, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. Even though a withdrawal of $5,000 would reduce the Contract value to $85,000, the ING LifePay Plus Base would remain at its current level (as would the Maximum Annual Withdrawal as well) since the withdrawal did not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. See below for more information about the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

<R>

An Excess Withdrawal is a withdrawal either before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins (except for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), or once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, any portion of a withdrawal during a contract year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. An Excess Withdrawal is also a withdrawal after spousal continuation of the Contract but before the ING LifePay Plus rider’s guarantees resume, which occurs on the next quarterly contract anniversary following spousal continuation. An Excess Withdrawal will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base – in the same proportion as Contract value is reduced by the portion of the withdrawal that is considered excess, inclusive of surrender charges, or Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations (rather than the total amount of the withdrawal). An Excess Withdrawal will also cause the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Appendix H, Illustrations 1, 2 and 6 for examples of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal.

</R>

Please note that any withdrawals before the rider effective date in the same contract year when the ING LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

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

Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, we reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING LifePay Plus rider upon the Annual Ratchet. You will never pay more than new issues of the ING LifePay Plus rider, subject to the maximum annual charge, and we promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. 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, 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 Percentages is below under “Maximum Annual Withdrawal.” Our written notice will also remind you of the consequences of canceling the forthcoming Annual Ratchet.

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 you took no withdrawals during the preceding contract year – to equal the greatest of: the current ING LifePay Plus Base; the current Contract value; and the ING LifePay Plus Base on the previous contract anniversary, increased by the Step-up.

The amount of the Step-up is the product of the Step-up Tracker on the previous contract anniversary times the Step-up percent, currently 6%. The Step-up Tracker is only used to calculate the amount of the Step-up. Initially, it equals the ING LifePay Plus Base. Any premiums received during a contract year are added to the Step-up Tracker and eligible for a partial Step-up. Any withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees are subtracted from the Step-up. Like the ING LifePay Plus Base, the Step-up Tracker is eligible for Annual Ratchets and subject to a pro-rata adjustment for any Excess Withdrawals.

Please note that no partial Step-up is available in the first year after you purchase this rider post issue of the Contract.. Your first opportunity for a

</R>

<R>

Step-up will not be until the first contract anniversary after a full contract year has elapsed since the rider effective date. Say for example that with a Contract purchased on January 1, 2007, the contract owner decides to add the ING LifePay Plus rider on March 15, 2007. The rider effective date is April 1, 2007, which is the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. Because on January 1, 2008 a full contract year will not have elapsed since the rider effective date, the ING LifePay Plus Base will not be eligible for a step-up. Rather, the first opportunity for a Step-up with this Contract is on January 1, 2009.

     Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of your first withdrawal (except those for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), SO LONG AS the annuitant is age 59 ½. On this date, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of the current ING LifePay Plus Base or the Contract value on the previous business day. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase will continue until the earliest of:

</R>
1)      the date annuity payments begin (see “The Annuity Options”);
2)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by an Excess Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
4)      surrender of the Contract; or
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

The ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status in the event Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” below for more information.

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 applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the Annuitant’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base.

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:

<R>
  Ages 
4%  59½ to 64 
5%  65-75 
6%  76-79 
7%  80+ 

</R> <R> </R> <R>

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is thereafter recalculated whenever the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated, for example, upon the Annual Ratchet or a Step-up. Also, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage can increase with the Annual Ratchet as the annuitant grows older.

In the event on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins the Contract value on the previous business day is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base, then before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated, the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to that Contract value. The greater the ING LifePay Plus Base, the greater the amount guaranteed to be available to you for withdrawals under the ING LifePay Plus rider in calculating the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the first time.

Income Optimizer. The ING LifePay Plus rider offers the option to elect to receive the Maximum Annual Withdrawal in systematic installments over the annuitant’s life. We call this option the Income Optimizer. You

</R>

Opportunities

<R>

may elect the Income Optimizer during the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. This election is in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options, and these payments will be subject to the same tax treatment as an annuity payment. Please see “Federal Tax Considerations” for more information. The Income Optimizer is only available on non-qualified contracts.

The frequency of payments under the Income Optimizer may be annual, quarterly or monthly. While you are receiving payments under the Income Optimizer, the ING LifePay Plus Base remains eligible for Annual Ratchets. Your Contract may still have a Contract value and death benefit. Spousal continuation of payments under the Income Optimizer is permitted. Any withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal are Excess Withdrawals that would cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base, as well as a reduction of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Your election is subject to restrictions – you may not: revoke your election; add on premiums; exchange the Contract; annuitize the Contract; or change ownership (except as permitted under “Change of Owner or Annuitant” below). Once you choose the frequency of payments, you may not change it. Also, the specified percentage of your Contract value required to be allocated to Fixed Allocation Funds is higher, and the investment options available for this purpose are limited. Please see “Investment Option Restrictions” below for the details. You may surrender your Contract at any time.

Payments under the Income Optimizer will continue until the Terminal Date, at which time you waive any remaining Contract value and death benefit and the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The Terminal Date is the contract anniversary following the annuitant’s 95th birthday. Alternatively, you may wish to extend the Terminal Date to the contract anniversary following the annuitant’s 115th birthday in order to liquidate your Contract value that may remain before the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Regardless, your payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will continue during the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until the death of the annuitant. We will notify you in writing in advance of the Terminal Date to remind you of this alternative and how to extend the Terminal Date.

Lifetime Income Annuity Option. In the event the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while the ING LifePay Plus rider is in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, you may elect a life only annuity option, in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options. Payments under this option are based on the minimum annual payment factors for each $1,000 reflected in the rider data table and will never be less than the same frequency of payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal at that time. For more information about the Contract’s annuity options, see “The Annuity Options.”

</R>

Required Minimum Distributions. The ING LifePay Plus rider allows for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal without causing a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and recalculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, then an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Once you have taken the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year, the dollar amount of any additional withdrawals will count first against and reduce any unused Additional Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount for the current calendar year – without constituting an Excess Withdrawal. See Appendix H, Illustration 3 for an example.

Withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and all available Additional Withdrawal Amounts are Excess Withdrawals that will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Appendix H, Illustration 5 for an example of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal with an Additional Withdrawal Amount. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is available on a calendar year basis and recalculated every January, reset to equal that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date. Any unused amount of the Additional Withdrawal Amount carries over into the next calendar year and is available

Opportunities

<R>

through the end of that year, at which time any amount remaining will expire. See Appendix H, Illustration 4 for an example of the Additional Withdrawal Amount being carried over. Please note that there is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount for Annual Ratchets or upon spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus Rider.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status when your Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. (A withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal that causes your Contract value to be reduced to zero will terminate the ING LifePay Plus rider.) You will no longer be entitled to make withdrawals, but instead will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status: the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under the ING LifePay Plus rider; no further premium payments will be accepted; and any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

</R>

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the annuitant at which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the annuitant’s death.

If when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status your net withdrawals to date are less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you the difference immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the first Contract anniversary following the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

<R>

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. Also, the ING LifePay Plus Base remains eligible for Step-ups. Once the ING LifePay Plus rider enters the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, periodic payments will begin in an annual amount equal to the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the annuitant’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base.

</R>

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Under a systematic withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made annually, then the payments will be made on each following contract anniversary.

<R>

     Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING LifePay Plus 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 the required specified percentage of such Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds, which is 30%; 40% with the Income Optimizer.

See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below. 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 ING LifePay Plus 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:

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.

Fixed Allocation Funds. Currently, the Fixed Allocation Funds are:

<R>

ING American Funds Bond Portfolio  ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio 
ING BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio  ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio

You may allocate your contract value to one or more Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.

</R>

Other Funds. All portfolios available under the Contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

<R>

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than the required specified percentage of the total Contract value allocated among the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any ING LifePay Plus Rebalancing Date (30%; 40% with the Income Optimizer), we will automatically rebalance the Contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that the required specified percentage of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds.. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-

rata basis from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on the rider effective date and each quarterly Contract anniversary. Also, after the following transactions:

</R>
1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you;
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.” You will be notified that Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred, along with your new allocations, by a confirmation statement that will be mailed to you after Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred.

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in it. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

     Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charges pro-rated) on the date of death of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner), or the annuitant if there is a non-natural owner. Also, an ING LifePay Plus rider that is in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status terminates on the date of the annuitant’s death.

<R>

ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base. The ING LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider: on the Contract date – equal to the initial premium; or after the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the rider effective date.

</R>

The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is increased by the dollar amount of any subsequent premiums and subject to any withdrawal adjustments. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is reduced by the dollar amount of any withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, and for any withdrawals once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins that are not Excess Withdrawals, including withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is subject to a pro-rata reduction for an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “ING LifePay Plus Base – Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals” above for more information.

<R>

There is no additional charge for the death benefit associated with the ING LifePay Plus rider. Please note that the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is not eligible to participate in Annual Ratchets or Step-ups.

</R>

In the event the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than zero when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, each periodic payment reduces the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base dollar for dollar until the earlier date of the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base being reduced to zero or the annuitant’s death. Upon the annuitant’s death, any remaining ING LifePay Plus death benefit is payable to the beneficiary in a lump sum.

<R>

Spousal Continuation. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue , provided the spouse becomes the annuitant and sole owner. At the time the Contract is

</R>

<R>

continued, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the Contract value, inclusive of the guaranteed death benefit – UNLESS the continuing spouse is a joint owner and the original annuitant, OR the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has not yet begun. In this case, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of: the Contract value, inclusive of the guaranteed death benefit; and the last calculated ING LifePay Plus Base, subject to pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation. Regardless, the ING LifePay Plus rider’s guarantees resume on the next quarterly contract anniversary following spousal continuation. Any withdrawals after spousal continuation of the Contract but before the ING LifePay Plus rider’s guarantees resume are Excess Withdrawals. The ING LifePay Plus rider remains eligible for the Annual Ratchet upon recalculation of the ING LifePay Plus Base.

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is also recalculated as the ING LifePay Plus Base; however, there is no Maximum Annual Withdrawal upon spousal continuation until the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of the first withdrawal after spousal continuation, SO LONG AS the annuitant is age 59½. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated to equal the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the new annuitant’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base. There is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount upon spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus rider for a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code. Any withdrawals before the owner’s death and spousal continuation are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

Please note, if the Contract value on the previous business day is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to that Contract value before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated. The rider will be eligible for any Step-Ups that may remain, and the Step-Up Tracker will be recalculated at the same time as the ING LifePay Plus Base. Also, upon spousal continuation, the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base equals the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base before the owner’s death, subject to any pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation of the rider.

In the event the Income Optimizer was elected, systematic installments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will continue, SO LONG AS the surviving spouse as annuitant is age 59½. The amount of these continuing payments may change since both the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal are recalculated based on the new annuitant’s age. The rider under the Income Optimizer will remain subject to the higher required specified percentage for allocations to the Fixed Allocation Funds, even if upon spousal continuation the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has not yet begun, and there is no Maximum Annual Withdrawal, because the annuitant is not yet age 59½.

</R>

Contrary to the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus rider would likely NOT take effect at the same time as the Contract is continued. As noted above, the ING LifePay Plus rider provides for spousal continuation only on a quarterly contract anniversary (subject to the spouse becoming the annuitant and sole owner). So if you are concerned about the availability of benefits being interrupted with spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus rider, you might instead want to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

<R>

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charge pro-rated) upon any ownership change or change of annuitant, except for:

</R>
1)      spousal continuation as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual;
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      change in trust as owner where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual;
7)      change of owner from an individual to a trust where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual;

</R> <R>

     Surrender Charges. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, your withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (and any applicable Additional Withdrawal Amount) are not subject to surrender charges. We waive any surrender charges otherwise applicable to your withdrawal in a contract year that is less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Excess Withdrawals are subject to surrender charges, whether or not the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has begun. Once your Contract value is reduced to zero, any periodic payments under the ING LifePay Plus rider would not be subject to surrender charges. Moreover, with no contract value, none of your contract level recurring charges (e.g., the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge) would be deducted. See Appendix H for examples.

</R>

Loans. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the ING LifePay Plus rider.

     Taxation. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING LifePay Plus Rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of both you and your spouse, even if these withdrawals reduce your Contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are married and concerned that you and your spouse may outlive your income.

<R>

Please Note: We introduced the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider on August 20, 2007 and launched changes to it on April 28, 2008 and January 12, 2009, subject to state approval where applicable. The form of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider available to you depends on state availability.

The below information pertains to the new form of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider available for sale beginning on May 1, 2009, in states where approved. If this form of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is not yet approved for sale in your state, please see Appendix J for the information about the form of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider available to you.

     Eligibility. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is only available for purchase by individuals who are married at the time of purchase (spouses) and eligible to elect spousal continuation (as defined by the Tax Code) of the Contract when the death benefit becomes payable, subject to the owner, annuitant and beneficiary requirements below. The maximum issue age is 80. Both spouses must meet the issue age requirement. The issue age is the age of each owner on the rider effective date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is not available for purchase with the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is subject to broker/dealer availability. Please note that the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will not be issued unless the required owner, annuitant and beneficiary designations are met, and until your contract value is allocated in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below.

Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 are eligible for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, subject to the conditions, requirements and limitations of the prior paragraph. Such Contracts must not already have a living benefit rider. There is an election form for this purpose. Please contact the Customer Service Center for more information.

</R>

Owner, Annuitant and Beneficiary Designations. For nonqualified contracts: Joint owners must be spouses, and one of the owners the annuitant; and For a Contract with only one owner, the owner’s spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary. For qualified contracts, there may only be one owner who must also be the annuitant, and then the owner’s spouse must also be the sole primary beneficiary. Non-natural, custodial owners are only

Opportunities

<R>

allowed with IRAs. Owner and beneficiary designations for custodial IRAs must be the same as for any other qualified contract. The annuitant must be the beneficial owner of the custodial IRA. We require the custodian to provide us the name and date of birth of both the owner and owner’s spouse. We do not maintain individual owner and beneficiary designations for custodial IRAs. We reserve the right to verify the date of birth and social security number of both spouses.

</R>

Rider Effective Date. The rider effective date is the date that coverage under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider begins. If you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider when the Contract is issued, the rider effective date is also the Contract date. If the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue, the rider effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once each quarter of a contract year from the contract date.

Active Spouse. An Active Spouse is the person (people) upon whose life and age the guarantees are calculated under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. There must be two Active Spouses when you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, who are married to each other and either are joint owners, or for a Contract with only one owner, the spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary. You cannot add an Active Spouse after the rider effective date. In general, changes in ownership of the Contract, the annuitant and/or beneficiary would result in one spouse being deactivated (the spouse is thereafter inactive). An inactive spouse is not eligible to exercise any rights or receive any benefits under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, including continuing the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider upon spousal continuation of the Contract. Once an Active Spouse is deactivated, the spouse may not become an Active Spouse again. Specific situations that would result in a spouse being deactivated include:

1)      for nonqualified contracts where the spouses are joint owners, the removal of a joint owner (if that spouse does not automatically become sole primary beneficiary pursuant to the terms of the Contract), or the change of one joint owner to a person other than an Active Spouse;
2)      for nonqualified contracts where one spouse is the owner and the other spouse is the sole primary beneficiary, as well as for IRA contracts (including custodial IRAs), the addition of a joint owner who is not also an Active Spouse or any change of beneficiary (including the addition of primary beneficiaries); or
3)      the spouse’s death.

An owner may also request that a spouse be deactivated. Both owners must agree when there are joint owners.

However, all charges for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider would continue to apply, even after a spouse is deactivated, regardless of the reason. So please be sure to understand the impact of any beneficiary or owner changes on the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider before requesting any changes. Also, please note that a divorce terminates the ability of an ex-spouse to continue the Contract. See “Divorce” below for more information.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you: a) cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period; b) surrender the Contract; c) begin the income phase and start receiving annuity payments; or d) otherwise terminate the Contract pursuant to its terms. These events automatically cancel the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

<R>

Termination. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you and your spouse while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you: Terminate your Contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender your Contract, or begin receiving income phase payments in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider; or Die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract (and your spouse is an Active Spouse). The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider also terminates with a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation on your death by an Active Spouse). Other circumstances that may cause the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

     Highlights. This paragraph introduces the terminology of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and how its components generally work together. Benefits and guarantees are subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. More detailed information follows below, with the capitalized words that are underlined indicating headings for ease of reference. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider guarantees an amount available for withdrawal from the Contract in any contract year once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins – we use the ING LifePay Plus Base as part of the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is available for withdrawals at your discretion or systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Also, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider offers the Income Optimizer, which is the option to elect to receive systematic installments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal over the lives of both Active Spouses. The guarantee continues when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, at which time we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (since Contract value would be zero) until the last Active Spouse’s death. The ING LifePay Plus Base is eligible for Annual Ratchets and Step-ups, and subject to adjustment for any Excess Withdrawals. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has an allowance for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that would otherwise be Excess Withdrawals. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider allows for spousal continuation.

     ING LifePay Plus Base. The ING LifePay Plus Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider: on the Contract date – equal to the initial premium; or after the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the effective date of the rider.

</R>

The ING LifePay Plus Base is increased, dollar for dollar, by any subsequent premiums. We refer to the ING LifePay Plus Base as the MGWB Base in the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including for payment of third-party investment advisory fees, have no impact on the ING LifePay Plus Base. These withdrawals will not incur surrender charges or a negative Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations.

Say for example the current Contract value is $90,000 on a Contract with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The ING LifePay Plus Base is $100,000, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. Even though a withdrawal of $5,000 would reduce the Contract value to $85,000, the ING LifePay Plus Base would remain at its current level (as would the Maximum Annual Withdrawal as well) since the withdrawal did not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. See below for more information about the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

An Excess Withdrawal is a withdrawal either before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins (except for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), or once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, any portion of a withdrawal during a contract year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. An Excess Withdrawal will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base – in the same proportion as Contract value is reduced by the portion of the withdrawal that is considered excess, inclusive of surrender charges, or Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations (rather than the total amount of the withdrawal). An Excess Withdrawal will also cause the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Appendix H, Illustrations 1, 2 and 6 for examples of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal.

Please note that any withdrawals before the rider effective date in the same contract year when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

<R>

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

Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, we reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider upon the Annual Ratchet. You will never pay more than new issues of the ING

</R>

Opportunities

<R>

Joint LifePay Plus rider, subject to the maximum annual charge, and we promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. 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, 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 Percentages is below under “Maximum Annual Withdrawal.” Our written notice will also remind you of the consequences of canceling the forthcoming Annual Ratchet.

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 you took no withdrawals during the preceding contract year – to equal the greatest of: the current ING LifePay Plus Base; the current Contract value; and the ING LifePay Plus Base on the previous contract anniversary, increased by the Step-up.

The amount of the Step-up is the product of the Step-up Tracker on the previous contract anniversary times the Step-up percent, currently 6%. The Step-up Tracker is only used to calculate the amount of the Step-up. Initially, it equals the ING LifePay Plus Base. Any premiums received during a contract year are added to the Step-up Tracker and eligible for a partial Step-up. Any withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees are subtracted from Step-up. Like the ING LifePay Plus Base, the Step-up Tracker is eligible for Annual Ratchets and subject to a pro-rata adjustment for any Excess Withdrawals.

Please note that no partial Step-up is available in the first year after you purchase this rider post issue of the Contract.. Your first opportunity for a Step-up will not be until the first contract anniversary after a full contract year has elapsed since the rider effective date. Say for example that with a Contract purchased on January 1, 2007, the contract owner decides to add the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider on March 15, 2007. The rider effective date is April 1, 2007, which is the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. Because on January 1, 2008 a full contract year will not have elapsed since the rider effective date, the ING LifePay Plus Base will not be eligible for a step-up. Rather, the first opportunity for a step-up with this Contract is on January 1, 2009.

     Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of your first withdrawal (except those for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), SO LONG AS the youngest Active Spouse is age 59½. On this date, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of the current ING LifePay Plus Base or the Contract value on the previous business day. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase will continue until the earliest of:

</R>
1)      the date annuity payments begin (see “The Annuity Options”);
2)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by an Excess Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
4)      surrender of the Contract;
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary is an Active Spouse who elects to continue the Contract; or
6)      the last Active Spouse dies.

The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status in the event Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” below for more information.

Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is the amount that the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider guarantees to be available for withdrawal from the Contract in any contract year. The Maximum

Opportunities

43


Annual Withdrawal is first calculated when the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins and equals the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the younger Active Spouse’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base.

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:

<R>
  Ages 
4%  59½ to 64 
5%  65-75 
6%  76-79 
7%  80+ 

</R> <R> </R> <R>

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is thereafter recalculated whenever the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated, for example, upon the Annual Ratchet or Step-up. Also, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage can increase with the Annual Ratchet as the younger Active Spouse grows older.

In the event on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins the Contract value on the previous business day is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base, then before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated, the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to that Contract value. The greater the ING LifePay Plus Base, the greater the amount guaranteed to be available to you for withdrawals under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider in calculating the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the first time.

Income Optimizer. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider offers the option to elect to receive the Maximum Annual Withdrawal in systematic installments over the lives of both Active Spouses. We call this option the Income Optimizer. You may elect the Income Optimizer during the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. This election is in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options, and these payments will be subject to the same tax treatment as an annuity payment. The Income Optimizer is only available on non-qualified contracts.

The frequency of payments under the Income Optimizer may be annual, quarterly or monthly. While you are receiving payments under the Income Optimizer, the ING LifePay Plus Base remains eligible for Annual Ratchets. Your Contract may still have a Contract value and death benefit. Spousal continuation of payments under the Income Optimizer is permitted. Any withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal are Excess Withdrawals that would cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base, as well as a reduction of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Your election is subject to restrictions – you may not: revoke your election; add on premiums; exchange the Contract; annuitize the Contract; or change ownership (except as permitted under “Change of Owner or Annuitant” below). Once you choose the frequency of payments, you may not change it. Also, the specified percentage of your Contract value required to be allocated to Fixed Allocation Funds is higher, and the investment options available for this purpose are limited. Please see “Investment Option Restrictions” below for the details. You may surrender your Contract at any time.

Payments under the Income Optimizer will continue until the Terminal Date, at which time you waive any remaining Contract value and death benefit and the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The Terminal Date is the contract anniversary following the youngest Active Spouse’s 95th birthday. Alternatively, you may wish to extend the Terminal Date to the contract anniversary following the youngest Active Spouse’s 115th birthday in order to liquidate your Contract value that may remain before the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Regardless, your payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will continue during the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until

</R>

Opportunities

44


<R>

the death of the last Active Spouse. We will notify you in writing in advance of the Terminal Date to remind you of this alternative and how to extend the Terminal Date.

Lifetime Income Annuity Option. In the event the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, you may elect a life only annuity option, in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options. Payments under this option will be joint life if both Active Spouses are living, or for the life of the only Active Spouse, and are based on the minimum annual payment factors for each $1,000 reflected in the rider data table. Also, these payments will never be less than the same frequency of payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal at that time. For more information about the Contract’s annuity options, see “The Annuity Options.”

</R>

Required Minimum Distributions. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider allows for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal without causing a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and recalculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, then an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Once you have taken the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year, the dollar amount of any additional withdrawals will count first against and reduce any unused Additional Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount for the current calendar year – without constituting an Excess Withdrawal. See Appendix H, Illustration 3 for an example.

<R>

Withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and all available Additional Withdrawal Amounts are Excess Withdrawals that will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Appendix H, Illustration 5 for an example of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal with an Additional Withdrawal Amount. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is available on a calendar year basis and recalculated every January, reset to equal that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date. Any unused amount of the Additional Withdrawal Amount carries over into the next calendar year and is available through the end of that year, at which time any amount remaining will expire. See Appendix H, Illustration 4 for an example of the Additional Withdrawal Amount being carried over. Please note that there is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount for Annual Ratchets or upon spousal continuation of the ING Joint LifePay Plus Rider.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status when your Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. (A withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal that causes your Contract value to be reduced to zero will terminate the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.) You will no longer be entitled to make withdrawals, but instead will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status: the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider; no further premium payments will be accepted; and any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

</R>

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the last Active Spouse at which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the last Active Spouse’s death.

If when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status your net withdrawals to date are less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you the difference immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the first Contract anniversary following the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

Opportunities

45


<R>

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 youngest Active Spouse is age 59 ½. During this time, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider’s death benefit remains payable upon the last Active Spouse’s death. Also, the ING LifePay Plus Base remains eligible for Step-ups. Once the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, periodic payments will begin in an annual amount equal to the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the youngest Active Spouse’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base. If an Active Spouse were to die while Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status is deferred, then when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, and the annual amount of the periodic payments, would be based on the remaining Active Spouse’s age.

</R>

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Under a systematic withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made annually, then the payments will be made on each following contract anniversary.

<R>

     Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING Joint LifePay Plus 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 the required specified percentage of such Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds, which is 30%; 40% with the Income Optimizer.

</R>

See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below. 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 ING Joint LifePay Plus 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:

<R>
</R> <R>
BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund  ING MFS Total Return Portfolio 
ING American Funds Asset Allocation Portfolio  ING Oppenheimer Active Allocation Portfolio 
ING American Funds World Allocation Portfolio  ING Russell Global Large Cap Index 75% Portfolio

</R>

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.

Fixed Allocation Funds. Currently, the Fixed Allocation Funds are:

<R>
</R> <R>
ING American Funds Bond Portfolio  ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio 
ING BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio  ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio 
ING U.S. Bond Index Portfolio   

</R> <R>

You may allocate your contract value to one or more Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.

</R>

Other Funds. All portfolios available under the Contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

<R>

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than the required specified percentage of the total Contract value allocated among the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Date (30%; 40% with the Income Optimizer), we will automatically rebalance the Contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that the required specified percentage of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on the rider effective date and each quarterly Contract anniversary. Also, after the following transactions:

</R>
1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you;
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.” You will be notified that Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred, along with your new allocations, by a confirmation statement that will be mailed to you after Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred.

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in it. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these

transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

     Divorce. Generally, in the event of divorce, the spouse who retains ownership of the Contract will continue to be entitled to all rights and benefits of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, while the ex-spouse will not longer have any such rights or be entitled to any such benefits. In the event of a divorce during the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider would continue until the owner’s death (first owner in the case of joint owners, or annuitant in the case of a custodial IRA). Although spousal continuation may be available under the Tax Code for a subsequent spouse, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider cannot be continued by the new spouse. As a result of the divorce, we may be required to withdraw assets for the benefit of an ex-spouse. Any such withdrawal would be considered a withdrawal for purposes of the ING LifePay Plus Base. See “ING LifePay Plus Base – Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals” above. In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, there will be no change in the amount of your periodic payments. Payments will continue until both spouses are deceased.

     Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charges prorated) on the earlier of the date of death of the last Active Spouse, or when the surviving spouse decides not to continue the Contract.

<R>

ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the first owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider: on the Contract date – equal to the initial premium; or after the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the rider effective date.

</R>

The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is increased by the dollar amount of any subsequent premiums and subject to any withdrawal adjustments. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is reduced by the dollar amount of any withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, and for any withdrawals once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins that are not Excess Withdrawals, including withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is subject to a pro-rata reduction for an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “ING LifePay Plus Base – Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals” above for more information.

<R>

There is no additional charge for the death benefit associated with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. Please note that the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is not eligible to participate in Annual Ratchets or Step-ups.

</R>

In the event the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than zero when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, each periodic payment reduces the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base dollar for dollar until the earlier date of the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base being reduced to zero or the last Active Spouse’s death. Upon the last Active Spouse’s death, any remaining ING LifePay Plus death benefit is payable to the beneficiary in a lump sum.

<R>

Spousal Continuation. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue, SO LONG AS the surviving spouse in an Active Spouse. At that time, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of: the Contract value, inclusive of the guaranteed death benefit; and the last calculated ING LifePay Plus Base, subject to pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation.

</R>

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is also recalculated; however, there is no Maximum Annual Withdrawal upon spousal continuation until the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of the first withdrawal after spousal continuation, SO LONG AS the last Active Spouse is age 59 ½. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated to equal the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the last Active Spouse’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base. There is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount upon spousal continuation of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider for a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code. Any withdrawals before the owner’s death and spousal

Opportunities

48


continuation are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

<R>

Please note, if the Contract value on the previous business day is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to that Contract value before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated. The rider will be eligible for any Step-ups that may remain, and the Step-up Tracker will be recalculated at the same time as the ING LifePay Plus Base. Also, upon spousal continuation, the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base equals the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base before the owner’s death, subject to any pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation of the rider.

</R>

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charge prorated) upon an ownership change or change of annuitant, except for:

1)      spousal continuation as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual (owner’s spouse must be named sole primary beneficiary to remain an Active Spouse);
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      for nonqualified contracts only, the addition of a joint owner, provided the added joint owner is the original owner’s spouse and is an Active Spouse when added as a joint owner;
7)      for nonqualified contracts only, the removal of a joint owner, provided the removed joint owner is an Active Spouse and becomes the sole primary beneficiary; and
8)      change of owner where the owner becomes the sole primary beneficiary and the sole primary beneficiary becomes the owner, provided both spouses are Active Spouses at the time of the change.
<R>

     Surrender Charges. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, your withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (and any applicable Additional Withdrawal Amount) are not subject to surrender charges. We waive any surrender charges otherwise applicable to your withdrawal in a contract year that is less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Excess Withdrawals are subject to surrender charges, whether or not the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has begun. Once your Contract value is reduced to zero, any periodic payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider would not be subject to surrender charges. Moreover, with no contract value, none of your contract level recurring charges (e.g., the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge) would be deducted. See Appendix H for examples.

</R>

Loans. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

     Taxation. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING Joint LifePay Plus Rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

WITHDRAWALS

Except under certain qualified contracts, you may withdraw all or part of your money any time during the accumulation phase and before the death of the contract owner. If you request a withdrawal for more than 90% of the cash surrender value, and the remaining cash surrender value after the withdrawal is less than $2,500, we will treat it as a request to surrender the Contract. If any single withdrawal or the sum of withdrawals exceeds the Free Withdrawal Amount, you will incur a surrender charge. The Free Withdrawal Amount is the total of (i) your cumulative earnings (which is your contract value less premium payments received and prior withdrawals), and (ii) 10% of premium payments not previously withdrawn received within 8 years prior to the date of the withdrawal.

You need to submit to us a written request specifying the Fixed Interest Allocations or subaccounts from which to withdraw amounts, otherwise we will make the withdrawal on a pro-rata basis from all of the subaccounts in which you are invested. If there is not enough contract value in the subaccounts, we will deduct the balance of the

Opportunities

<R>

withdrawal from your Fixed Interest Allocations starting with the guaranteed interest periods nearest their maturity dates until we have honored your request. We will apply a Market Value Adjustment to any withdrawal from your Fixed Interest Allocation taken more than 30 days before its maturity date. Definitive guidance on the proper federal tax treatment of the Market Value Adjustment has not been issued. You may want to discuss the potential tax consequences of a Market Value Adjustment with your tax adviser. We will determine the contract value as of the close of business on the day we receive your withdrawal request at our Customer Service Center. The contract value may be more or less than the premium payments made.

</R>

If any limitation on allocations to the Restricted Funds has been exceeded, subsequent withdrawals must be taken so that the percentage of contract value in the Restricted Funds following the withdrawal would not be greater than the percentage of contract value in the Restricted Funds prior to the withdrawal. So in this event, you would either need to take your withdrawal from the Restricted Funds pro-rata from all variable subaccounts.

<R>

Please be aware that the benefit we pay under certain optional benefit riders may be reduced by any withdrawals you take while the optional benefit rider is in effect. Withdrawals may be subject to taxation and tax penalties.

</R>

We offer the following three withdrawal options:

Regular Withdrawals

After the free look period, you may make regular withdrawals. Each withdrawal must be a minimum of $100. We will apply a Market Value Adjustment to any regular withdrawal you take from a Fixed Interest Allocation more than 30 days before its maturity date. See Appendix C for more information on the application of the Market Value Adjustment.

Systematic Withdrawals

You may choose to receive automatic systematic withdrawal payments (i) from the contract value in the subaccounts in which you are invested, or (ii) from the interest earned in your Fixed Interest Allocations. You may not elect the systematic withdrawal option if you are taking IRA withdrawals. Systematic withdrawals may be taken monthly, quarterly or annually. If you have contract value allocated to one or more Restricted Funds, and you elect to receive systematic withdrawals from the subaccounts in which you are invested, the systematic withdrawals must be taken pro-rata from all subaccounts in which contract value is invested. If you do not have contract value allocated to a Restricted Fund and choose systematic withdrawals on a non pro-rata basis, we will monitor the withdrawals annually. If you subsequently allocate contract value to one or more Restricted Funds, we will require you to take your systematic withdrawals on a pro-rata basis from all subaccounts in which contract value is invested. There is no additional charge for this feature.

<R>

You decide the date on which you would like your systematic withdrawals to start. This date must be at least 30 days after the Contract Date and no later than the 28th day of the month. Subject to these rules, if you have not indicated the date, your systematic withdrawals will occur on the next business day after your Contract Date (or the monthly or quarterly anniversary thereof) for your desired frequency.

</R>

Each systematic withdrawal amount must be a minimum of $100. The amount of your systematic withdrawal can either be (i) a fixed dollar amount or (ii) an amount based on a percentage of the premiums not previously withdrawn from the subaccounts in which you are invested. Both forms of systematic withdrawals are subject to the applicable maximum as shown below, which is calculated on each withdrawal date:

Opportunities

50


  Maximum Percentage 
  of Premiums 
Frequency  not Previously Withdrawn 
Monthly  0.83% 
Quarterly  2.50% 
Annually  10.00% 

<R>

A fixed dollar systematic withdrawal of less than $100 on any withdrawal date will terminate your systematic withdrawal. If the amount to be withdrawn would exceed the applicable maximum percentage of your premium payments not previously withdrawn on any withdrawal date, we will automatically reduce the amount withdrawn so that it equals such percentage. Thus, your fixed dollar systematic withdrawals will never exceed the maximum percentage. If you want fixed dollar systematic withdrawals to exceed the maximum percentage and are willing to incur associated surrender charges, consider the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature discussed below which you may add to your regular fixed dollar systematic withdrawal program.

</R>

If your systematic withdrawal is based on a percentage of the premiums not previously withdrawn from the subaccounts in which you are invested, and the amount to be withdrawn based on that percentage would be less than $100, we will automatically increase the amount to $100 as long as it does not exceed the maximum percentage. If the systematic withdrawal would exceed the maximum percentage, we will send the amount, and then automatically cancel your systematic withdrawal option.

We limit systematic withdrawals from Fixed Interest Allocations to interest earnings during the prior month, quarter, or year, depending on the frequency you chose. Systematic withdrawals are not subject to a Market Value Adjustment, unless you have added the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature discussed below and the payments exceed interest earnings. Systematic withdrawals from Fixed Interest Allocations under the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature are available only in connection with Section 72(q) and 72(t) distributions. A Fixed Interest Allocation may not participate in both the systematic withdrawal option and the dollar cost averaging program at the same time.

You may change the amount or percentage of your systematic withdrawal once each contract year or cancel this option at any time by sending satisfactory notice to our Customer Service Center at least 7 days before the next scheduled withdrawal date. If you submit a subsequent premium payment after you have applied for systematic withdrawals, we will not adjust future withdrawals under the systematic withdrawal program unless you specifically request that we do so. The systematic withdrawal option may commence in a contract year where a regular withdrawal has been taken but you may not change the amount or percentage of your withdrawals in any contract year during which you have previously taken a regular withdrawal.

Subject to availability, a spousal or non-spousal beneficiary may elect to receive death benefits as payments over the beneficiary’s lifetime (“stretch”). Stretch payments will be subject to the same limitations as systematic withdrawals, and non-qualified stretch payments will be reported on the same basis as other systematic withdrawals.

Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature

You may add the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature to your regular fixed dollar systematic withdrawal program. This feature allows you to receive a systematic withdrawal in a fixed dollar amount in addition to your systematic withdrawal program regardless of any potential impact of surrender charges or Market Value Adjustments. Systematic withdrawals from Fixed Interest Allocations under the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature are available only in connection with Section 72(q) and 72(t) distributions. You choose the amount of the fixed systematic withdrawals, which may total up to an annual maximum of 10% of your premium payments not previously withdrawn as determined on the day we receive your election of this feature. We will not recalculate the maximum limit when you make additional premium payments, unless you instruct us to do so. We will assess a surrender charge on the withdrawal date if the withdrawal exceeds the maximum limit as calculated on the withdrawal date. We will assess a Market Value Adjustment on the withdrawal date if the withdrawal from a Fixed Interest Allocation exceeds your interest earnings on the withdrawal date. We will apply the surrender charge

and any Market Value Adjustment directly to your contract value (rather than to the withdrawal) so that the amount of each systematic withdrawal remains fixed.

Fixed dollar systematic withdrawals which are intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 72(q) or 72(t) of the Tax Code may exceed the maximum. Such withdrawals are subject to surrender charges and Market Value Adjustments when they exceed the applicable maximum percentage.

IRA Withdrawals

If you have a non-Roth IRA Contract and will be at least age 70½ during the current calendar year, you may elect to have distributions made to you to satisfy requirements imposed by federal tax law. IRA withdrawals provide payout of amounts required to be distributed by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) rules governing mandatory distributions under qualified plans. We will send you a notice before your distributions commence. You may elect to take IRA withdrawals at that time, or at a later date. You may not elect IRA withdrawals and participate in systematic withdrawals at the same time. If you do not elect to take IRA withdrawals, and distributions are required by federal tax law, distributions adequate to satisfy the requirements imposed by federal tax law may be made. Thus, if you are participating in systematic withdrawals, distributions under that option must be adequate to satisfy the mandatory distribution rules imposed by federal tax law.

<R>

You choose the frequency of your IRA withdrawals (monthly, quarterly or annually) and the start date . This date must be at least 30 days after the Contract Date and no later than the 28th day of the month. Subject to these rules, if you have not indicated the date, your IRA withdrawals will occur on the next business day after your Contract Date for your desired frequency .

</R>

You may request us to calculate the amount you are required to withdraw from your Contract each year based on the information you give us and various choices you make. For information regarding the calculation and choices you have, see the SAI. Or, we will accept your written instructions regarding the calculated amount required to be withdrawn from your Contract each year. The minimum dollar amount you can withdraw is $100. When we determine the required IRA withdrawal amount for a taxable year based on the frequency you select, if that amount is less than $100, we will pay $100. At any time where the IRA withdrawal amount is greater than the contract value, we will cancel the Contract and send you the amount of the cash surrender value.

You may change the payment frequency of your IRA withdrawals once each contract year or cancel this option at any time by sending satisfactory notice to our Customer Service Center at least 7 days before the next scheduled withdrawal date.

An IRA withdrawal from a Fixed Interest Allocation in excess of the amount allowed under systematic withdrawals will be subject to a Market Value Adjustment and may be subject to surrender charge.

Consult your tax adviser regarding the tax consequences associated with taking withdrawals. You are responsible for determining that withdrawals comply with applicable law. A withdrawal made before the taxpayer reaches age 59½ may result in a 10% penalty tax. See “Federal Tax Considerations” for more details.

TRANSFERS AMONG YOUR INVESTMENTS (EXCESSIVE TRADING POLICY)

Between the end of the free look period and the annuity start date, you may transfer your contract value among the subaccounts in which you are invested and your Fixed Interest Allocations. We currently do not charge you for transfers made during a contract year, but reserve the right to charge for each transfer after the twelfth transfer in a contract year. We also reserve the right to limit the number of transfers you may make and may otherwise modify or terminate transfer privileges if required by our business judgment or in accordance with applicable law. We will apply a Market Value Adjustment to transfers from a Fixed Interest Allocation taken more than 30 days before its maturity date, unless the transfer is made under the dollar cost averaging program.

mind that transfers between Covered Funds, Special Funds and Excluded Funds and other investment portfolios may negatively impact your death benefit or rider benefits.

If you allocate contract value to an investment option that has been designated as a Restricted Fund, your ability to transfer contract value to the Restricted Fund may be limited. A transfer to the Restricted Funds will not be permitted to the extent that it would increase the contract value in the Restricted Fund to more than the applicable limits following the transfer. We do not limit transfers from Restricted Funds. If the result of multiple reallocations is to lower the percentage of total contract value in the Restricted Fund, the reallocation will be permitted even if the percentage of contract value in the Restricted Fund is greater than the limit.

<R>

Please be aware that the benefit we pay under an optional benefit rider may be affected by certain transfers you make while the rider is in effect. Transfers, including those involving Special Funds or Excluded Funds, may also affect your optional rider base. See “Living Benefit Riders.”

</R>

The minimum amount that you may transfer is $100 or, if less, your entire contract value held in a subaccount or a Fixed Interest Allocation. To make a transfer, you must notify our Customer Service Center and all other administrative requirements must be met. We will determine transfer values at the end of the business day on which we receive the transfer request at our Customer Service Center. If we receive your transfer request after 4 p.m. eastern time or the close of regular trading of the New York Stock Exchange, we will make the transfer on the next business day.

Separate Account B and the Company will not be liable for following instructions communicated by telephone or other approved electronic means that we reasonably believe to be genuine. We may require personal identifying information to process a request for transfer made over the telephone, over the internet or other approved electronic means. Please be advised that the risk of a fraudulent transaction is increased with telephonic or electronic instructions, even if appropriate identifying information is provided.

Limits on Frequent or Disruptive Transfers

The contract is not designed to serve as a vehicle for frequent transfers. Frequent transfer activity can disrupt management of a fund and raise its expenses through:

  • Increased trading and transaction costs;
  • Forced and unplanned portfolio turnover;
  • Lost opportunity costs; and
  • Large asset swings that decrease the fund’s ability to provide maximum investment return to all contract owners.

This in turn can have an adverse effect on fund performance. Accordingly, individuals or organizations that use market-timing investment strategies or make frequent transfers should not purchase the contract.

Excessive Trading Policy. We and the other members of the ING family of companies that provide multi-fund variable insurance and retirement products, have adopted a common Excessive Trading Policy to respond to the demands of the various fund families that make their funds available through our products to restrict excessive fund trading activity and to ensure compliance with Rule 22c-2 of the 1940 Act.

We actively monitor fund transfer and reallocation activity within our variable insurance products to identify violations of our Excessive Trading Policy. Our Excessive Trading Policy is violated if fund transfer and reallocation activity:

  • Meets or exceeds our current definition of Excessive Trading, as defined below; or
  • Is determined, in our sole discretion, to be disruptive or not in the best interests of other owners of our variable insurance and retirement products.

We currently define Excessive Trading as:

Opportunities

53


  • More than one purchase and sale of the same fund (including money market funds) within a 60 calendar day period (hereinafter, a purchase and sale of the same fund is referred to as a “round-trip”). This means two or more round-trips involving the same fund within a 60 calendar day period would meet our definition of Excessive Trading; or
  • Six round-trips involving the same fund within a twelve month period.

The following transactions are excluded when determining whether trading activity is excessive:

  • Purchases or sales of shares related to non-fund transfers (for example, new purchase payments, withdrawals and loans);
  • Transfers associated with scheduled dollar cost averaging, scheduled rebalancing or scheduled asset allocation programs;
  • Purchases and sales of fund shares in the amount of $5,000 or less;
  • Purchases and sales of funds that affirmatively permit short-term trading in their fund shares, and movement between such funds and a money market fund; and
  • Transactions initiated by us, another member of the ING family of insurance companies or a fund.
<R>

If we determine that an individual or entity has made a purchase of a fund within 60 days of a prior round-trip involving the same fund, we will send them a letter (once per year) warning that another sale of that same fund within 60 days of the beginning of the prior round-trip will be deemed to be Excessive Trading and result in a six month suspension of their ability to initiate fund transfers or reallocations through the Internet, facsimile, Voice Response Unit (VRU), telephone calls to the ING Customer Service Center, or other electronic trading medium that we may make available from time to time (“Electronic Trading Privileges”). Likewise, if we determine that an individual or entity has made five round-trips involving the same fund within a rolling twelve month period, we will send them a letter warning that another purchase and sale of that same fund within twelve months of the initial purchase in the first round-trip in the prior twelve month period will be deemed to be Excessive Trading and result in a suspension of their Electronic Trading Privileges. According to the needs of the various business units, a copy of the warning letters may also be sent, as applicable, to the person(s) or entity authorized to initiate fund transfers or reallocations, the agent/registered representative or investment adviser for that individual or entity. A copy of the warning letters and details of the individual’s or entity’s trading activity may also be sent to the fund whose shares were involved in the trading activity.

</R>

If we determine that an individual or entity has violated our Excessive Trading Policy, we will send them a letter stating that their Electronic Trading Privileges have been suspended for a period of six months. Consequently, all fund transfers or reallocations, not just those which involve the fund whose shares were involved in the activity that violated our Excessive Trading Policy, will then have to be initiated by providing written instructions to us via regular U.S. mail. Suspension of Electronic Trading Privileges may also extend to products other than the product through which the Excessive Trading activity occurred. During the six month suspension period, electronic “inquiry only” privileges will be permitted where and when possible. A copy of the letter restricting future transfer and reallocation activity to regular U.S. mail and details of the individual’s or entity’s trading activity may also be sent, as applicable, to the person(s) or entity authorized to initiate fund transfers or reallocations, the agent/registered representative or investment adviser for that individual or entity and the fund whose shares were involved in the activity that violated our Excessive Trading Policy.

Following the six month suspension period during which no additional violations of our Excessive Trading Policy are identified, Electronic Trading Privileges may again be restored. We will continue to monitor the fund transfer and reallocation activity, and any future violations of our Excessive Trading Policy will result in an indefinite suspension of Electronic Trading Privileges. A violation of our Excessive Trading Policy during the six month suspension period will also result in an indefinite suspension of Electronic Trading Privileges.

We reserve the right to suspend Electronic Trading Privileges with respect to any individual or entity, with or without prior notice, if we determine, in our sole discretion, that the individual’s or entity’s trading activity is disruptive or not in the best interests of other owners of our variable insurance products, regardless of whether the individual’s or entity’s trading activity falls within the definition of Excessive Trading set forth above.

Opportunities

54


Our failure to send or an individual’s or entity’s failure to receive any warning letter or other notice contemplated under our Excessive Trading Policy will not prevent us from suspending that individual’s or entity’s Electronic Trading Privileges or taking any other action provided for in our Excessive Trading Policy.

We do not allow exceptions to our Excessive Trading Policy. We reserve the right to modify our Excessive Trading Policy, or the policy as it relates to a particular fund, at any time without prior notice, depending on, among other factors, the needs of the underlying fund(s), the best interests of contract owners and fund investors and/or state or federal regulatory requirements. If we modify our policy, it will be applied uniformly to all contract owners or, as applicable, to all contract owners investing in the underlying fund.

Our Excessive Trading Policy may not be completely successful in preventing market timing or excessive trading activity. If it is not completely successful, fund performance and management may be adversely affected, as noted above.

<R>

Limits Imposed by the Funds. Each underlying fund available through the variable insurance and retirement products offered by us and/or the other members of the ING family of insurance companies, either by prospectus or stated contract, has adopted or may adopt its own excessive/frequent trading policy, and orders for the purchase of fund shares are subject to acceptance or rejection by the underlying fund. We reserve the right, without prior notice, to implement fund purchase restrictions and/or limitations on an individual or entity that the fund has identified as violating its excessive/frequent trading policy and to reject any allocation or transfer request to a subaccount if the corresponding fund will not accept the allocation or transfer for any reason. All such restrictions and/or limitations (which may include, but are not limited to, suspension of Electronic Trading Privileges and/or blocking of future purchases of a fund or all funds within a fund family) will be done in accordance with the directions we receive from the fund.

</R>

Agreements to Share Information with Fund Companies. As required by Rule 22c-2 under the 1940 Act, we have entered into information sharing agreements with each of the fund companies whose funds are offered through the contract. Contract owner trading information is shared under these agreements as necessary for the fund companies to monitor fund trading and our implementation of our Excessive Trading Policy. Under these agreements, the company is required to share information regarding contract owner transactions, including but not limited to information regarding fund transfers initiated by you. In addition to information about contract owner transactions, this information may include personal contract owner information, including names and social security numbers or other tax identification numbers.

As a result of this information sharing, a fund company may direct us to restrict a contract owner’s transactions if the fund determines that the contract owner has violated the fund’s excessive/frequent trading policy. This could include the fund directing us to reject any allocations of premium or contract value to the fund or all funds within the fund family.

Dollar Cost Averaging

<R>

You may elect to participate in our dollar cost averaging (DCA) program through either the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio or a Fixed Interest Allocation, subject to availability, starting 30 days after the Contract Date . These investment options serve as the source accounts from which we will, on a monthly basis, automatically transfer a set dollar amount of money to the subaccounts you specify. There is no additional charge for dollar cost averaging. Dollar cost averaging is not available with automatic rebalancing and may be subject to limited availability with systematic withdrawals.

We also may offer DCA Fixed Interest Allocations for durations of 6 months and 1 year, subject to availability, exclusively for use with the dollar cost averaging program. .

</R>

Opportunities

55


The dollar cost averaging program is designed to lessen the impact of market fluctuation on your investment. Since we transfer the same dollar amount to other subaccounts each month, more units of a subaccount are purchased if the value of its unit is low and fewer units are purchased if the value of its unit is high. Therefore, a lower than average value per unit may be achieved over the long term. However, we cannot guarantee this. When you elect the dollar cost averaging program, you are continuously investing in securities regardless of fluctuating price levels. You should consider your tolerance for investing through periods of fluctuating price levels.

<R>

Dollar cost averaging requires a minimum monthly transfer amount of $100. We will transfer all your money allocated to that source account into the subaccount(s) you specify in equal payments over the relevant duration. The last payment will include earnings accrued over the duration. If you make an additional premium payment into a Fixed Interest Allocation subject to dollar cost averaging, the amount of your transfers under the dollar cost averaging program remains the same, unless you instruct us to increase the transfer amount.

Transfers under the dollar cost averaging program are not subject to a Market Value Adjustment. However, if you terminate the dollar cost averaging program for a DCA Fixed Interest Allocation and there is money remaining in the DCA Fixed Interest Allocation, we will transfer the remaining money to the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio. Such transfer will trigger a Market Value Adjustment if the transfer is made more than 30 days before the maturity date of the DCA Fixed Interest Allocation.

</R>

If you do not specify to which subaccounts you want to transfer the dollar amount of the source account, we will transfer the money to the subaccounts in which you are invested on a proportional basis, subject to any fund purchase restrictions. The transfer date is the same day each month as your contract date. If, on any transfer date, your contract value in a source account is equal or less than the amount you have elected to have transferred, the entire amount will be transferred and the program will end. You may terminate the dollar cost averaging program at any time by sending satisfactory notice to our Customer Service Center at least 7 days before the next transfer date.

Transfers under the DCA program must be in compliance with the investment restrictions for the living benefit riders. If you set up DCA transfers that are not in compliance with such restrictions, the fixed allocation funds automatically rebalancing feature of those living benefit riders will automatically rebalance the amounts to bring them into compliance.

You are permitted to transfer contract value to a Restricted Fund, subject to the limitations described above in this section and in “Trust and Funds – Restricted Funds.” Compliance with the individual and aggregate Restricted Fund limits will be reviewed when the dollar cost averaging program is established. Transfers under the dollar cost averaging program must be within those limits. We will not review again your dollar cost averaging election for compliance with the individual and aggregate limits for investment in the Restricted Funds except in the case of the transactions described below.

  • Amount added to source account: If you add amounts to the source account which would increase the amount to be transferred under the dollar cost averaging program, we will review the amounts to be transferred to ensure that the individual and aggregate limits are not being exceeded. If such limits would be exceeded, we will require that the dollar cost averaging transfer amounts be changed to ensure that the transfers are within the limits based on the then-current allocation of contract value to the Restricted Fund(s) and the then-current value of the amount designated to be transferred to that Restricted Fund(s).
  • Additional premium paid: Up to the individual Restricted Fund percentage limit may be allocated to a Restricted Fund. If you request more than the individual limit be allocated to a Restricted Fund, we will look at the aggregate limit, subtract the current allocation to Restricted Funds, and subtract the

Opportunities

56


    current value of amounts to be transferred under the dollar cost averaging program to Restricted Funds. The excess, if any, is the maximum that may be allocated pro-rata to the Restricted Funds.
  • Reallocation request is made while the dollar cost averaging program is active: If the reallocation would increase the amount allocated to Restricted Funds, the maximum that may be so allocated is the individual Restricted Fund percentage limit, less the current allocation to Restricted Funds and less the current value of any remaining amounts to be transferred under the dollar cost averaging program to the Restricted Funds.

We may offer additional subaccounts or fixed interest allocations as part of or withdraw any subaccount or Fixed Interest Allocation from the dollar cost averaging program, stop offering DCA Fixed Interest Allocations or otherwise modify, suspend or terminate this program. Such change will not affect any dollar cost averaging programs in operation at the time.

Automatic Rebalancing

If you have at least $10,000 of contract value invested in the subaccounts of Separate Account B, you may elect to have your investments in the subaccounts automatically rebalanced. Automatic rebalancing is not available if you participate in dollar cost averaging. Automatic rebalancing will not take place during the free look period. Automatic rebalancing is subject to any fund purchase restrictions; however, transfers made pursuant to automatic rebalancing do not count toward the 12-transfer limit on free transfers. There is no additional charge for this feature.

You are permitted to reallocate between Restricted and non-Restricted Funds, subject to the limitations described above, in this section and in “Trust and Funds – Restricted Funds.” If the reallocation would increase the amount allocated to the Restricted Funds, the maximum that may be so allocated is the individual Restricted Fund percentage limit, less the current allocation to all Restricted Funds.

We will transfer funds under your Contract on a quarterly, semi-annual, or annual calendar basis among the subaccounts to maintain the investment blend of your selected subaccounts. The minimum size of any allocation must be in full percentage points. Rebalancing does not affect any amounts that you have allocated to Fixed Account II. The program may be used in conjunction with the systematic withdrawal option only if withdrawals are taken pro-rata.

To participate in automatic rebalancing, send satisfactory notice to our Customer Service Center. We will begin the program on the last business day of the period in which we receive the notice. You may cancel the program at any time. The program will automatically terminate if you choose to reallocate your contract value among the subaccounts or if you make an additional premium payment or partial withdrawal on other than a pro-rata basis. Additional premium payments and partial withdrawals made on a pro-rata basis will not cause the automatic rebalancing program to terminate.

DEATH BENEFIT CHOICES

Death Benefit During the Accumulation Phase

<R>

During the accumulation phase, a death benefit (and earnings multiplier benefit, if elected) is payable when either the contract owner or the first of joint owners or the annuitant (when a contract owner is not an individual) dies before the annuity start date. Assuming you are the contract owner, your beneficiary will receive a death benefit unless the beneficiary is your surviving spouse and elects to continue the Contract. We calculate the death benefit value as of the close of the business day on which we receive written notice and due proof of death, as well as any required paperwork, at our Customer Service Center (“claim date”). If your beneficiary wants to receive the death benefit on a date later than this, it may affect the amount of the benefit payable in the future. The proceeds may be received in a single sum, applied to any of the annuity options, or, if available, paid over the beneficiary’s lifetime. (See “Systematic Withdrawals,” above). A beneficiary’s right to elect an annuity option or receive a lump-sum payment may have been restricted by the contract owner. If so, such rights or options will not be available to the beneficiary.

</R>

Opportunities

57


<R>

If we do not receive a request to apply the death benefit proceeds to an annuity option, we will make a single sum distribution. Unless you elect otherwise, the distribution will be made into an interest bearing account, backed by our general account, that is accessed by the beneficiary through a checkbook feature. Interest credited under this account may be less than under other settlement options, and the Company seeks to make a profit on these accounts. The beneficiary may access death benefit proceeds at any time without penalty. We will generally distribute death benefit proceeds within 7 days after our Customer Service Center has received sufficient information to make the payment. For information on required distributions under federal income tax laws, you should see “Required Distributions upon Contract Owner’s Death.” Interest earned on this account may be less than interest paid on other settlement options.

</R>

You may choose one of the following Death Benefits: (i) the Standard Death Benefit, (ii) the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit or (iii) the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit. The Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit and the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit are available only if the contract owner or the annuitant (if the contract owner is not an individual) is not more than 75 years old at the time of purchase. The Enhanced Death Benefits are available only at the time you purchase your Contract. The Enhanced Death Benefits are not available where a Contract is owned by joint owners. Not all death benefits are available in every state. If you do not choose a death benefit, your death benefit will be the Standard Death Benefit.

Once you choose a death benefit, you cannot change it. We may stop or suspend offering any of the Enhanced Death Benefit options to new Contracts. A change in ownership of the Contract may affect the amount of the death benefit and the Enhanced Death Benefit. The ING LifePay Plus and ING Joint LifePay Plus riders may also affect the death benefit.

The death benefit may be subject to certain mandatory distribution rules required by federal tax law.

In all cases described below, the amount of the death benefit could be reduced by premium taxes owed and withdrawals not previously deducted.

     Base Death Benefit. We use the Base Death Benefit to help determine the minimum death benefit payable under each of the death benefit options described below. You do not elect the Base Death Benefit. The Base Death Benefit is equal to the greater of:

1)      the contract value; or
2)      the cash surrender value.

Standard Death Benefit. The Standard Death Benefit equals the greater of:

1)      the Base Death Benefit; and
2)      the Standard Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit (“Standard MGDB”) for amounts allocated to Covered Funds plus the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds.

Covered Funds are all investment options not designated as Excluded Funds. No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds for purposes of the Standard Death Benefit.

The Standard MGDB allocated to Covered Funds equals premium payments allocated to Covered Funds less pro-rata adjustments for any withdrawals and transfers.

The Standard MGDB allocated to Excluded Funds equals premium payments allocated to Excluded Funds less pro-rata adjustments for any withdrawals and transfers. This calculation is not used for benefit purposes, but only to determine the impact of transfers to and from Excluded Funds.

<R>

Withdrawals reduce the Standard MGDB on a pro-rata basis. The percentage reduction in the Standard MGDB for each Fund category (i.e., Covered or Excluded) equals the percentage reduction in contract value in that Fund

category resulting from the withdrawal. The pro-rata adjustment is based on the change in contract value resulting from the withdrawal, not the amount requested.

Transfers among Fund categories do not reduce the overall Standard MGDB.

  • Net transfers from Covered Funds to Excluded Funds will reduce the Standard MGDB in the Covered Funds on a pro-rata basis. The increase in the Standard MGDB allocated to Excluded Funds will equal the decrease in the Standard MGDB in Covered Funds.
  • Net transfers from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds will reduce the Standard MGDB in Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. The increase in the Standard MGDB allocated to Covered Funds will equal the lesser of the net contract value transferred and the decrease in the Standard MGDB in Excluded Funds.

     Enhanced Death Benefit Options. The Contract has Enhanced Death Benefit options designed to protect the contract value from poor investment performance and the impact the poor investment performance could have on the Standard Death Benefit. The Enhanced Death Benefit options enable you to lock in positive investment performance. Under the Enhanced Death Benefit options, if you die before the annuity start date, your beneficiary will receive the greater of the Standard Death Benefit or the Enhanced Death Benefit option elected. The criteria to lock are different. The Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit locks quarterly. The Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit also locks quarterly, but it also has an element that locks annually at a specified interest rate. Your death benefit under the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit would be the greater of these two elements. Which Enhanced Death Benefit option is right for you ultimately depends on whether you want the lock to include a specified interest rate, besides the additional charge. The Enhanced Death Benefit options are explained further below.

Allocation restrictions apply for purposes of determining death benefits. Selecting a Special Fund or Excluded Fund may limit or reduce the Enhanced Death Benefit. We may, with 30 days notice to you, designate any investment portfolio as a Special Fund or Excluded Fund on existing contracts with respect to new premiums added to such investment portfolio and also with respect to new transfers to such investment portfolio.

For the period during which a portion of the contract value is allocated to a Special Fund or Excluded Fund, we may, at our discretion, reduce the mortality and expense risk charge attributable to that portion of the contract value. The reduced mortality and expense risk charge will be applicable only during that period.

The Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit equals the greater of:

1)      the Standard Death Benefit; and
2)      the Quarterly Ratchet Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit (“Quarterly Ratchet MGDB”) allocated to Covered Funds plus the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds.

Covered Funds are all investment options not designated as Excluded Funds. No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds for purposes of the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB.

The Quarterly Ratchet MGDB allocated to Covered Funds on the contract date equals the premium allocated to Covered Funds. On each quarterly anniversary (three months from the contract date and each three month anniversary of that date) that occurs on or prior to attainment of age 90, the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in Covered Funds will be set to the greater of:

1)      the current contract value in Covered Funds (after deductions occurring as of that date); and
2)      the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in Covered Funds from the prior quarterly anniversary (after deductions occurring on that date), adjusted for new premiums, partial withdrawals attributable to Covered Funds, and transfers.

Opportunities

59


Other than on quarterly anniversaries, the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in the Covered Funds is equal to the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in the Covered Funds from the last quarterly anniversary, adjusted for new premiums, partial withdrawals attributable to Covered Funds, and transfers.

The Quarterly Ratchet MGDB allocated to Excluded Funds on the contract date equals the premium allocated to Excluded Funds. The calculation is not used for benefit purposes, but only to determine the impact of transfers to and from Excluded Funds. On each quarterly anniversary that occurs on or prior to attainment of age 90, the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in Excluded Funds will be set to the greater of:

1)      the current contract value in Excluded Funds (after deductions occurring as of that date); or
2)      the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in the Excluded Funds from the prior quarterly anniversary (after deductions occurring on that date), adjusted for new premiums, partial withdrawals attributable to Excluded Funds, and transfers.

Other than on quarterly anniversaries, the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in the Excluded Funds is equal to the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in the Excluded Funds from the last quarterly anniversary, adjusted for new premiums, partial withdrawals attributable to Excluded Funds, and transfers.

Withdrawals reduce the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB on a pro-rata basis. The pro-rata adjustment is based on the change in contract value resulting from the withdrawal, not the amount requested.

Net transfers from Covered Funds to Excluded Funds will reduce the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in Covered Funds on a pro-rata basis. The increase in the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB allocated to Excluded Funds, as applicable, will equal the decrease in the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in Covered Funds.

Net transfers from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds will reduce the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. The increase in the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB allocated to Covered Funds will equal the lesser of the net contract value transferred and the reduction in the Quarterly Ratchet MGDB in Excluded Funds.

The Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit equals the greater of the Quarterly Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit and the 7% Solution Death Benefit Element. Each element of the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit is determined independently of the other at all times.

The 7% Solution Death Benefit Element is the greater of:

1)      the Standard Death Benefit; and
2)      the lesser of:
  (a)      2.5 times all premium payments, adjusted for withdrawals (the “cap”); and
  (b)      the sum of the 7% Solution Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit Element (“7% MGDB”) allocated to Covered Funds, the 7% MGDB allocated to Special Funds, and the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds.

For Contracts issued prior to August 21, 2006, the cap is 3 times all premium payments adjusted for withdrawals.

For purposes of calculating the 7% Solution Death Benefit Element, the following investment options are designated as Special Funds:

  • ING Liquid Assets Portfolio; and
  • Fixed Interest Allocation.

Opportunities

60


The ProFunds VP Rising Rates Opportunity Portfolio is also a Special Fund, but closed to new allocations effective April 30, 2007.

For Contracts issued prior to September 2, 2003, however, the ProFunds VP Rising Rates Opportunity Portfolio is not designated as a Special Fund.

The ING Limited Maturity Bond Portfolio is a Special Fund, but closed to new allocations effective March 12, 2004.

For Contracts issued on or after May 1, 2003, but prior to August 21, 2006, the ING VP Intermediate Bond Portfolio is designated as a Special Fund.

Covered Funds are all investment options not designated as Special Funds or Excluded Funds. No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds.

The 7% MGDB allocated to Covered Funds equals premiums allocated to Covered Funds, adjusted for withdrawals and transfers, accumulated at 7% annually until age 80 or the 7% MGDB reaches the cap. There is no accumulation once the cap is reached. Payment of additional premiums may cause the accumulation to resume, but there is no catch-up for any period where accumulation was suspended.

The 7% MGDB allocated to Special Funds equals premiums allocated to Special Funds, adjusted for withdrawals and transfers. There is no accumulation of 7% MGDB allocated to Special Funds.

The 7% MGDB allocated to Excluded Funds is determined in the same way as the 7% MGDB for Covered Funds, but the calculation is not used for benefit purposes, but only to determine the impact of transfers to and from Excluded Funds.

<R>

Withdrawals reduce the 7% MGDB on a pro-rata basis. The percentage reduction in the 7% MGDB for each Fund category (i.e., Covered, Special or Excluded) equals the percentage reduction in contract value in that Fund category resulting from the withdrawal. The percentage reduction in the cap equals the percentage reduction in total contract value resulting from the withdrawal. The pro-rata adjustment is based on the change in contract value resulting from the withdrawal, not the amount requested.

</R>

Transfers among Fund categories do not reduce the overall 7% MGDB, but do affect the amount of the 7% MGDB in a particular Fund category. Net transfers from among the Funds will reduce the 7% MGDB in the Funds on a pro-rata basis. The increase in the 7% MGDB allocated to the fund category to which the transfer is being made will equal the decrease in the fund category from which the transfer is being made.

Note:  In all cases described above, the amount of the death benefit could be reduced by premium taxes owed and 
  withdrawals not previously deducted. The enhanced death benefits may not be available in all states. 

     Earnings Multiplier Benefit Rider. The earnings multiplier benefit rider is an optional rider that provides a separate death benefit in addition to the death benefit provided under the death benefit options described above. The rider is subject to state availability and is available only for issue ages 75 or under. You may add it at issue of the Contract or, if not yet available in your state, on the next contract anniversary following introduction of the rider in your state. The date on which the rider is added is referred to as the “rider effective date.”

If the rider is added at issue, the rider provides a benefit equal to a percentage of the gain under the Contract, up to a gain equal to 150% of premiums adjusted for withdrawals (“Maximum Base”). Currently, if added at issue, the earnings multiplier benefit is equal to 55% (30% for issue ages 70 and above) of the lesser of: i) the Maximum Base; and ii) the contract value on the claim date minus premiums adjusted for withdrawals. If added after issue, the earnings multiplier benefit is equal to 55% (30% for issue ages 70 and above) of the lesser of: i) 150% of the contract value on the rider effective date, plus subsequent premiums adjusted for subsequent withdrawals; and ii) the contract value on the claim date minus the contract value on the rider effective date, minus subsequent premiums adjusted for subsequent withdrawals. The adjustment to the benefit for withdrawals is pro-rata, meaning that the

61


benefit will be reduced by the proportion that the withdrawal bears to the contract value at the time of the withdrawal.

There is an extra charge for the earnings multiplier benefit rider and once selected, it may not be revoked. The rider does not provide a benefit if there is no gain under the Contract. As such, the Company would continue to assess a charge for the rider, even though no benefit would be payable at death under the rider if there are no gains under the Contract. Please see “Charges and Fees — Charges Deducted from the Subaccounts – Optional Rider Charges -Earnings Multiplier Benefit Rider Charge” for a description of the charge.

The rider is available for both non-qualified and qualified contracts. Please see the discussions of possible tax consequences in “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit” in this prospectus.

Death Benefit During the Income Phase

If any contract owner or the annuitant dies after the annuity start date, we will pay the beneficiary any certain benefit remaining under the annuity in effect at the time.

Continuation After Death — Spouse

If at the contract owner’s death, the surviving spouse of the deceased contract owner is the beneficiary and such surviving spouse elects to continue the contract as his or her own, the following will apply:

If the guaranteed death benefit as of the date we receive due proof of death, minus the contract value on that date is greater than zero, we will add such difference to the contract value. We will allocate such addition to the variable subaccounts in proportion to the contract value in the subaccounts, unless you direct otherwise. If there is no contract value in any subaccount, we will allocate the addition to the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio, or its successor. Such addition to contract value will not affect the guaranteed death benefit or any living benefit rider values. Any addition to contract value is available only to the spouse of the owner as of the date of death of the owner if such spouse under the provisions of the contract elects to continue the contract as his or her own.

The death benefits under each of the available options will continue, based on the surviving spouse’s age on the date that ownership changes.

If you elect the Quarterly Ratchet Death Benefit or the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit and the new or surviving owner is attained age 89 or less, ratchets will continue, (or resume if deceased owner had already reached age 90) until the new or surviving owner reaches age 90. If you elected the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit, the new or surviving owner is attained age 79 or less, the Max 7 Enhanced Death Benefit continues or resumes accumulation until either the cap or the attained age of 80 is reached.

At subsequent surrender, we will waive any surrender charge applicable to premiums paid prior to the date we receive due proof of death of the contract owner. Any premiums paid later will be subject to any applicable surrender charge.

If you elected the earnings multiplier benefit rider, and the benefit would otherwise be payable, we will add the benefit to the contract value and allocate the benefit among the variable subaccounts in proportion to the contract value in the subaccounts, unless you direct otherwise. If there is no contract value in any subaccount, we will allocate the benefit to the Liquid Assets subaccount, or its successor.

The earnings multiplier benefit rider will continue if the surviving spouse is eligible based on his or her attained age. If the surviving spouse is older than the maximum rider issue age, the rider will terminate. The Maximum Base and the percentages will be reset based on the adjusted contract value. The calculation of the benefit going forward will be: (i) based on the attained age of the spouse at the time of the ownership change using current values as of that date; (ii) computed as if the rider were added to the Contract after issue and after the increase; and (iii) based on the Maximum Base and percentages in effect on the original rider date. However, we may permit the surviving spouse to elect to use the then-current Maximum Base and percentages in the benefit calculation.

62


Continuation After Death — Not a Spouse

If the beneficiary or surviving joint owner is not the spouse of the owner, the contract may defer payment of the death benefit subject to the required distribution rules of the Tax Code. See next section, “Required Distributions Upon Contract Owner’s Death.”

If the guaranteed death benefit as of the date we receive due proof of death, minus the contract value also on that date, is greater than zero, we will add such difference to the contract value. Such addition will be allocated to the variable subaccounts in proportion to the contract value in the subaccounts, unless we are directed otherwise. If there is no contract value in any subaccount, the addition will be allocated to the Liquid Assets subaccount, or its successor.

The death benefit will then terminate. At subsequent surrender, any surrender charge applicable to premiums paid prior to the date we receive due proof of death of the contract owner will be waived. No additional premium payments may be made.

If you elected the earnings multiplier benefit rider, and the benefit would otherwise be payable, we will add the benefit to the contract value and allocate the benefit among the variable subaccounts in proportion to the contract value in the subaccounts, unless you direct otherwise. If there is no contract value in any subaccount, we will allocate the benefit to the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio, or its successor. The earnings multiplier benefit rider then terminates, whether or not a benefit was payable under the terms of the rider.

Required Distributions Upon Contract Owner’s Death

We will not allow any payment of benefits provided under a non-qualified Contract which does not satisfy the requirements of Section 72(s) of the Tax Code.

If any contract owner of a non-qualified contract dies before the annuity start date, we will distribute the death benefit payable to the beneficiary as follows: (a) the death benefit must be completely distributed within 5 years of the contract owner’s date of death; or (b) the beneficiary may elect, within the 1-year period after the contract owner’s date of death, to receive the death benefit in the form of an annuity from us, provided that (i) such annuity is distributed in substantially equal installments over the life of such beneficiary or over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of such beneficiary; and (ii) such distributions begin not later than 1 year after the contract owner’s date of death.

Notwithstanding (a) and (b) above, if the sole contract owner’s beneficiary is the deceased owner’s surviving spouse, then such spouse may elect to continue the Contract under the same terms as before the contract owner’s death. Upon receipt of such election from the spouse at our Customer Service Center: (i) all rights of the spouse as contract owner’s beneficiary under the Contract in effect prior to such election will cease; (ii) the spouse will become the owner of the Contract and will also be treated as the contingent annuitant, if none has been named and only if the deceased owner was the annuitant; and (iii) all rights and privileges granted by the Contract or allowed by us will belong to the spouse as contract owner of the Contract. We deem the spouse to have made this election if such spouse makes a premium payment to the Contract or fails to make a timely election as described in this paragraph. If the owner’s beneficiary is not a spouse, the distribution provisions described in subparagraphs (a) and (b) above, will apply even if the annuitant and/or contingent annuitant are alive at the time of the contract owner’s death.

Subject to availability, and our then current rules, a spousal or non-spousal beneficiary may elect to receive death benefits as payments over the life expectancy of the beneficiary (“stretch”). “Stretch” payments will be subject to the same limitations as systematic withdrawals, and non-qualified “stretch” payments will be reported on the same basis as other systematic withdrawals.

If we do not receive an election from an owner’s beneficiary who is not a spouse within the 1-year period after the contract owner’s date of death, then we will pay the death benefit to the owner’s beneficiary in a cash payment within five years from the date of death. We will determine the death benefit as of the date we receive due proof of death. Such cash payment will be in full settlement of all our liability under the Contract.

Opportunities

63


If a contract owner dies after the annuity start date, all of the contract owner’s rights granted under the Contract or allowed by us will pass to the contract owner’s beneficiary.

If a contract has joint owners we will consider the date of death of the first joint owner as the death of the contract owner, and the surviving joint owner will become the beneficiary of the Contract. If any contract owner is not an individual, the death of an annuitant shall be treated as the death of a contract owner.

THE ANNUITY OPTIONS

Annuitization of Your Contract

If the annuitant and contract owner are living on the annuity start date, we will begin making payments to the contract owner under an income plan. Four fixed payment annuity options are currently available. We will make these payments under the annuity option you choose. You may change an annuity option by making a written request to us at least 30 days before the annuity start date. Living benefit riders automatically terminate when the income phase of your Contract begins. The MGIB annuity benefit may be available if you have purchased the MGIB rider, provided the waiting period and other specified conditions have been met. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal may be available with the ING LifePay Plus or ING Joint LifePay Plus riders. There is no death benefit after the annuity start date.

You may also elect an annuity option on surrender of the Contract for its cash surrender value or you may choose one or more annuity options for the payment of death benefit proceeds while it is in effect and before the annuity start date. If, at the time of the contract owner’s death or the annuitant’s death (if the contract owner is not an individual), no option has been chosen for paying death benefit proceeds, the beneficiary may choose an annuity option. In such a case, the payments will be based on the life expectancy of the beneficiary rather than the life of the annuitant. In all events, payments of death benefit proceeds must comply with the distribution requirements of applicable federal tax law.

The minimum monthly annuity income payment that we will make is $20. We may require that a single sum payment be made if the contract value is less than $2,000 or if the calculated monthly annuity income payment is less than $20.

For each annuity option we will issue a separate written agreement putting the annuity option into effect. Before we pay any annuity benefits, we require the return of your Contract. If your Contract has been lost, we will require that you complete and return the applicable lost Contract form. Various factors will affect the level of annuity benefits, such as the annuity option chosen, the applicable payment rate used and the investment performance of the portfolios and interest credited to the Fixed Interest Allocations.

Our current annuity options provide only for fixed payments. Fixed annuity payments are regular payments, the amount of which is fixed and guaranteed by us. Payments under our current annuity options will last either for a specified period of time or for the life of the annuitant, or both – depending on the option. We will determine the amount of the annuity payments on the annuity start date by multiplying the contract value (adjusted for any market value adjustment and any rider charges that would be due) by the applicable payment factor provided under the Contract and dividing by 1,000. The applicably payment factor will depend on: the annuity option; payment date; the frequency of payments you choose and the age of the annuitant or beneficiary (and gender, where appropriate under applicable law). Because our current annuity options provide only for fixed payments, subsequent payments will not differ from the amount of your first annuity payment.

Our approval is needed for any option where:

1)      The person named to receive payment is other than the contract owner or beneficiary;
2)      The person named is not a natural person, such as a corporation; or
3)      Any income payment would be less than the minimum annuity income payment allowed.

Selecting the Annuity Start Date

<R>

You select the annuity start date, which is the date on which the annuity payments commence. Unless we consent, the annuity start date must be at least 5 years from the contract date but before the month immediately following the annuitant’s 90th birthday . If, on the annuity start date, a surrender charge remains, the elected annuity option must include a period certain of at least 5 years.

If you do not select an annuity start date, it will automatically begin in the month following the annuitant’s 90th birthday .

</R>

If the annuity start date occurs when the annuitant is at an advanced age, such as over age 85, it is possible that the Contract will not be considered an annuity for federal tax purposes. For more information, see “Federal Tax Considerations” and the SAI. For a Contract purchased in connection with a qualified plan, other than a Roth IRA, distributions must commence not later than April 1st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which you reach age 70½ or, in some cases, retire. Distributions may be made through annuitization or withdrawals. You should consult a tax adviser for tax advice before investing.

Frequency of Annuity Payments

You choose the frequency of the annuity payments. They may be monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually. If we do not receive written notice from you, we will make the payments monthly. There may be certain restrictions on minimum payments that we will allow.

Beneficiary Rights

A beneficiary’s right to elect an annuity option or receive a lump sum may have been restricted by the contract owner. If so, such options will not be available to the beneficiary.

The Annuity Options

The Contract has 4 annuity options shown below. Payments under Options 1, 2 and 3 are fixed. Payments under Option 4 may be fixed or variable, although only fixed payments are currently available. For a fixed annuity option, the contract value in the subaccounts is transferred to the Company’s general account. If you do not choose an annuity option, Option 2 – Income for Life with a 10-year period certain will be selected for you, or a shorter period if required by government regulations.

     Option 1. Income for a Fixed Period. Under this option, we make monthly payments in equal installments for a fixed number of years based on the contract value on the annuity start date. We guarantee that each monthly payment will be at least the amount stated in your Contract. If you prefer, you may request that payments be made in annual, semi-annual or quarterly installments. We will provide you with illustrations if you ask for them. If the cash surrender value or contract value is applied under this option, a 10% penalty tax may apply to the taxable portion of each income payment until the contract owner reaches age 59½.

     Option 2. Income for Life with a Period Certain. Under this option, we make payments for the life of the annuitant in equal monthly installments and guarantee the income for at least a period certain, such as 10 or 20 years. Other periods certain may be available to you on request. You may choose a refund period instead. Under this arrangement, income is guaranteed until payments equal the amount of your Contract. If the person named lives beyond the guaranteed period, we will continue payments until his or her death. We guarantee that each payment will be at least the amount specified in the Contract corresponding to the person’s age on his or her last birthday before the annuity start date. Amounts for ages not shown in the Contract are available if you ask for them.

     Option 3. Joint Life Income. This option is available when there are 2 persons named to determine annuity payments. At least one of the persons named must be either the contract owner or beneficiary of the Contract. We guarantee monthly payments will be made as long as at least one of the named persons is living. There is no minimum number of payments. Monthly payment amounts are available upon request.

     Option 4. Annuity Plan. Under this option, your contract value can be applied to any other annuitization plan that we choose to offer on the annuity start date. Annuity payments under Option 4 may be fixed or variable. If variable and subject to the 1940 Act, it will comply with the requirements of such Act.

Payment When Named Person Dies

When the person named to receive payment dies, we will pay any amounts still due as provided in the annuity agreement between you and ING USA. The amounts we will pay are determined as follows:

1)      For Option 1, or any remaining guaranteed payments under Option 2, we will continue payments. Under Options 1 and 2, the discounted values of the remaining guaranteed payments may be paid in a single sum. This means we deduct the amount of the interest each remaining guaranteed payment would have earned had it not been paid out early. We will base the discount interest rate on the interest rate used to calculate the payments for Options 1 and 2.
2)      For Option 3, no amounts are payable after both named persons have died.
3)      For Option 4, the annuity option agreement will state the amount we will pay, if any.

OTHER CONTRACT PROVISIONS

Reports to Contract Owners

<R>

We confirm purchase, transfer and withdrawal transactions usually within 5 business days of processing. We may also send you a quarterly report within 31 days after the end of each calendar quarter. The report will show the contract value, cash surrender value, and the death benefit as of the end of the calendar quarter. The report will also show the allocation of your contract value and reflects the amounts deducted from or added to the contract value . You have 30 days to notify our Customer Service Center of any errors or discrepancies . We will notify you when any shareholder reports of the investment portfolios in which Separate Account B invests are available. We will also send any other reports, notices or documents we are required by law to furnish to you.

</R>

Suspension of Payments

The Company reserves the right to suspend or postpone the date of any payment or determination of values beyond the 7 permitted days on any business day (i) when the New York Stock Exchange is closed; (ii) when trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted; (iii) when an emergency exists as determined by the SEC so that the sale of securities held in Separate Account B may not reasonably occur or so that the Company may not reasonably determine the value of Separate Account B’s net assets; or (iv) during any other period when the SEC so permits for the protection of security holders. We have the right to delay payment of amounts from a Fixed Interest Allocation for up to 6 months.

In Case of Errors in Your Application

If an age or gender given in the application or enrollment form is misstated, the amounts payable or benefits provided by the Contract shall be those that the premium payment would have bought had the age or gender not been misstated.

Assigning the Contract as Collateral

You may assign a non-qualified Contract as collateral security for a loan but you should understand that your rights and any beneficiary’s rights may be subject to the terms of the assignment. An assignment likely has federal tax consequences. You should consult a tax adviser for tax advice. You must give us satisfactory written notice at our Customer Service Center in order to make or release an assignment. We are not responsible for the validity of any assignment.

Contract Changes — Applicable Tax Law

We have the right to make changes in the Contract to continue to qualify the Contract as an annuity under applicable federal tax law. We will give you advance notice of such changes.

Free Look

You may cancel your Contract within your 10-day free look period. We deem the free look period to expire 15 days

Opportunities

66


after we mail the Contract to you. Some states may require a longer free look period. To cancel, you need to send your Contract to our Customer Service Center or to the agent from whom you purchased it. We will refund the contract value (which may be more or less than the premium payments you paid) or, if required by your state, the original amount of your premium payment. For purposes of the refund during the free look period, (i) we adjust your contract value for any market value adjustment (if you have invested in the Fixed Account), and (ii) then we include a refund of any charges deducted from your contract value. Because of the market risks associated with investing in the portfolios and the potential positive or negative effect of the market value adjustment, the contract value returned may be greater or less than the premium payment you paid. Some states require us to return to you the amount of the paid premium (rather than the contract value) in which case you will not be subject to investment risk during the free look period. In these states, your premiums designated for investment in the subaccounts may be allocated during the free look period to a subaccount specially designated by the Company for this purpose (currently, the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio). We may, in our discretion, require that premiums designated for investment in the subaccounts from all other states as well as premiums designated for a Fixed Interest Allocation be allocated to the specially designated subaccount during the free look period. Your free look rights depend on the laws of the state in which you purchase the Contract. Your Contract is void as of the day we receive your Contract and cancellation request in good order. We determine your contract value at the close of business on the day we void your Contract. If you keep your Contract after the free look period and the investment is allocated to a subaccount specially designated by the Company, we will put your money in the subaccount(s) chosen by you, based on the accumulation unit value next computed for each subaccount, and/or in the Fixed Interest Allocation chosen by you.

Special Arrangements

We may reduce or waive any Contract, rider, or benefit fees or charges for certain group or sponsored arrangements, under special programs, and for certain employees, agents, and related persons of our parent corporation and its affiliates. We reduce or waive these items based on expected economies, and the variations are based on differences in costs or services.

Selling the Contract

Our affiliate, Directed Services LLC, 1475 Dunwoody Drive, West Chester, PA 19380 is the principal underwriter and distributor of the Contract as well as for other ING USA contracts. Directed Services LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, is registered with the SEC as a broker/dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”).

Directed Services LLC does not retain any commissions or compensation paid to it by ING USA for Contract sales. Directed Services LLC enters into selling agreements with affiliated and unaffiliated broker/dealers to sell the Contracts through their registered representatives who are licensed to sell securities and variable insurance products (“selling firms”). Selling firms are also registered with the SEC and are FINRA member firms.

Directed Services LLC pays selling firms compensation for the promotion and sale of the Contracts. Registered representatives of the selling firms who solicit sales of the Contracts typically receive a portion of the compensation paid by Directed Services LLC to the selling firm in the form of commissions or other compensation, depending on the agreement between the selling firm and the registered representative. This compensation, as well as other incentives or payments, is not paid directly by contract owners or the Separate Account. We intend to recoup this compensation and other sales expenses paid to selling firms through fees and charges imposed under the Contracts.

Directed Services LLC pays selling firms for Contract sales according to one or more schedules. This compensation is generally based on a percentage of premium payments. Morgan Stanley and other selling firms may receive commissions of up to 9.0% of premium payments. In addition, Morgan Stanley and other selling firms may receive ongoing annual compensation of up to 1.25% of all, or a portion, of values of Contracts sold through the firm. Individual representatives may receive all or a portion of compensation paid to their selling firm, depending on the firm’s practices. Commissions and annual compensation, when combined, could exceed 9.0% of total premium payments.

Directed Services LLC has special compensation arrangements with certain selling firms based on those firms’ aggregate or anticipated sales of the Contracts or other criteria. These special compensation arrangements will not be offered to all selling firms, and the terms of such arrangements may differ among selling firms based on various factors. Any such compensation payable to a selling firm will not result in any additional direct charge to you by us.

In addition to the direct cash compensation for sales of Contracts described above, Directed Services LLC may also pay selling firms additional compensation or reimbursement of expenses for their efforts in selling the Contracts to you and other customers. These amounts may include:

  • Marketing/distribution allowances which may be based on the percentages of premium received, the aggregate commissions paid and/or the aggregate assets held in relation to certain types of designated insurance products issued by the Company and/or its affiliates during the year;
  • Loans or advances of commissions in anticipation of future receipt of premiums (a form of lending to agents/registered representatives). These loans may have advantageous terms such as reduction or elimination of the interest charged on the loan and/or forgiveness of the principal amount of the loan, which terms may be conditioned on fixed insurance product sales;
  • Education and training allowances to facilitate our attendance at certain educational and training meetings to provide information and training about our products. We also hold training programs from time to time at our expense;
  • Sponsorship payments or reimbursements for broker/dealers to use in sales contests and/or meetings for their agents/registered representatives who sell our products. We do not hold contests based solely on the sales of this product;
  • Certain overrides and other benefits that may include cash compensation based on the amount of earned commissions, agent/representative recruiting or other activities that promote the sale of contracts; and
  • Additional cash or noncash compensation and reimbursements permissible under existing law. This may include, but is not limited to, cash incentives, merchandise, trips, occasional entertainment, meals and tickets to sporting events, client appreciation events, business and educational enhancement items, payment for travel expenses (including meals and lodging) to pre-approved training and education seminars, and payment for advertising and sales campaigns.

Directed Services LLC may also compensate wholesalers/distributors, and their sales management personnel, for Contract sales within the wholesale/distribution channel. This compensation may be based on a percentage of premium payments and/or a percentage of Contract values. Directed Services LLC may, at its discretion, pay additional cash compensation to wholesalers/distributors for sales by certain broker-dealers or “focus firms.”

We do not pay any additional compensation on the sale or exercise of any of the Contract’s optional benefit riders offered in this prospectus.

This is a general discussion of the types and levels of compensation paid by us for sale of our variable annuity contracts. It is important for you to know that the payment of volume- or sales-based compensation to a selling firm or registered representative may provide that registered representative a financial incentive to promote our contracts over those of another company, and may also provide a financial incentive to promote one of our contracts over another.

OTHER INFORMATION

Voting Rights

We will vote the shares of a Trust owned by Separate Account B according to your instructions. However, if the

Opportunities

69


1940 Act or any related regulations should change, or if interpretations of it or related regulations should change, and we decide that we are permitted to vote the shares of a Trust in our own right, we may decide to do so.

We determine the number of shares that you have in a subaccount by dividing the Contract’s contract value in that subaccount by the net asset value of one share of the portfolio in which a subaccount invests. We count fractional votes. We will determine the number of shares you can instruct us to vote 180 days or less before a Trust shareholder meeting. We will ask you for voting instructions by mail at least 10 days before the meeting. If we do not receive your instructions in time, we will vote the shares in the same proportion as the instructions received from all contracts in that subaccount. We will also vote shares we hold in Separate Account B which are not attributable to contract owners in the same proportion. The effect of proportional voting is that a small number of contract owners may decide the outcome of a vote.

State Regulation

We are regulated by the Insurance Department of the State of Iowa. We are also subject to the insurance laws and regulations of all jurisdictions where we do business. The Contract offered by this prospectus has been approved where required by those jurisdictions. We are required to submit annual statements of our operations, including financial statements, to the Insurance Departments of the various jurisdictions in which we do business to determine solvency and compliance with state insurance laws and regulations.

Legal Proceedings

We are not aware of any pending legal proceedings which involve Separate Account B as a party.

The Company is involved in threatened or pending lawsuits/arbitrations arising from the normal conduct of business. Due to the climate in insurance and business litigation/arbitration, suits against the Company sometimes include claims for substantial compensatory, consequential or punitive damages and other types of relief. Moreover, certain claims are asserted as class actions, purporting to represent a group of similarly situated individuals. While it is not possible to forecast the outcome of such lawsuits/arbitrations, in light of existing insurance, reinsurance and established reserves, it is the opinion of management that the disposition of such lawsuits/arbitrations will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s operations or financial position.

Directed Services LLC., the principal underwriter and distributor of the contract, is a party to threatened or pending lawsuits/arbitration that generally arise from the normal conduct of business. Some of these suits may seek class action status and sometimes include claims for substantial compensatory, consequential or punitive damages and other types of relief. Directed Services LLC is not involved in any legal proceeding which, in the opinion of management, is likely to have a material adverse effect on its ability to distribute the contract.

FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS

<R>

Introduction

This section discusses our understanding of current federal income tax laws affecting the contract. Federal income tax treatment of the contract is complex and sometimes uncertain. You should keep the following in mind when reading it:

Your tax position (or the tax position of the designated beneficiary, as applicable) determines federal taxation of amounts held or paid out under the contract; Tax laws change. It is possible that a change in the future could affect contracts issued in the past; This section addresses some but not all applicable federal income tax rules and does not discuss federal estate and gift tax implications, state and local taxes, or any other tax provisions; and We do not make any guarantee about the tax treatment of the contract or transactions involving the contract.

We do not intend this information to be tax advice. For advice about the effect of federal income taxes or any other taxes on amounts held or paid out under the contract, consult a tax adviser. For more comprehensive information, contact the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

Types of Contracts: Non-Qualified or Qualified

The Contract may be purchased on a non-tax-qualified basis (non-qualified contracts) or purchased on a tax-qualified basis (qualified contracts).

Non-qualified contracts are purchased with after tax contributions and are not related to retirement plans that receive special income tax treatment under the Tax Code.

Qualified Contracts are designed for use by individuals whose premium payments are comprised solely of proceeds from and/or contributions under retirement plans that are intended to qualify for special income tax treatment under Sections 401, 408 or 408A, and some provisions of 403 and 457 of the Tax Code.

Effective January 1, 2009, except in the case of a rollover contribution as permitted under the Tax Code or as a result of an intra-plan exchange or plan-to-plan transfer described under the Final Regulations, contributions to a section 403(b) tax sheltered annuity contract may only be made by the Employer sponsoring the Plan under which the assets in your contract are covered subject to the applicable Treasury Regulations and only if the Company, in its sole discretion, agrees to be an approved provider.

Taxation of Non-Qualified Contracts

Contributions

You may not deduct the amount of your contributions to a non-qualified contract.

Taxation of Gains Prior to Distribution

     Tax Code Section 72 governs taxation of annuities in general. We believe that if you are a natural person you will generally not be taxed on increases in the value of a non-qualified Contract until a distribution occurs or until annuity payments begin. This assumes that the Contract will qualify as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes. For these purposes, the agreement to assign or pledge any portion of the contract value generally will be treated as a distribution. In order to be eligible to receive deferral of taxation, the following requirements must be satisfied:

     Diversification. Tax Code Section 817(h) requires that in a nonqualified contract the investments of the funds be “adequately diversified” in accordance with Treasury Regulations in order for the Contract to qualify as an annuity contract under federal tax law. The separate account, through the funds, intends to comply with the diversification requirements prescribed by Tax Code Section 817(h) and by the Treasury in Reg. Sec. 1.817-5, which affects how the funds’ assets may be invested. If it is determined, however, that your Contract does not satisfy the applicable diversification requirements and rulings because a subaccount’s corresponding fund fails to be adequately diversified for whatever reason, we will take appropriate steps to bring your Contract into compliance with such regulations and rulings, and we reserve the right to modify your Contract as necessary to do so.

     Investor Control. Although earnings under non-qualified contracts are generally not taxed until withdrawn, the IRS has stated in published rulings that a variable contract owner will be considered the owner of separate account assets if the contract owner possesses incidents of investment control over the assets. In these circumstances, income and gains from the separate account assets would be currently includible in the variable contract owner’s gross income. Future guidance regarding the extent to which owners could direct their investments among subaccounts without being treated as owners of the underlying assets of the separate account may adversely affect the tax treatment of existing contracts. The Company therefore reserves the right to modify the contract as necessary to attempt to prevent the contract holder from being considered the federal tax owner of a pro rata share of the assets of the separate account.

     Required Distributions. In order to be treated as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes, the Tax Code requires any non-qualified Contract to contain certain provisions specifying how your interest in the Contract will be distributed in the event of your death. The non-qualified Contracts contain provisions that are intended to comply with these Tax Code requirements, although no regulations interpreting these requirements have yet been issued. When such requirements are clarified by regulation or otherwise, we intend to review such distribution provisions and modify them if necessary to assure that they comply with the applicable requirements.

     Non-Natural Holders of a Non-Qualified Contract. If you are not a natural person, a non-qualified contract generally is not treated as an annuity for income tax purposes and the income on the contract for the taxable year is currently taxable as ordinary income. Income on the contract is any increase in the contract value over the “investment in the contract” (generally, the premiums or other consideration you paid for the contract less any nontaxable withdrawals) during the taxable year. There are some exceptions to this rule and a non-natural person should consult with its tax adviser prior to purchasing the Contract. When the contract owner is not a natural person, a change in the annuitant is treated as the death of the contract owner.

     Delayed Annuity Starting Date. If the Contract’s annuity starting date occurs (or is scheduled to occur) at a time when the annuitant has reached an advanced age (e.g., after age 85), it is possible that the Contract would not be treated as an annuity for federal income tax purposes. In that event, the income and gains under the Contract could be currently includible in your income.

Taxation of Distributions

     General. When a withdrawal from a non-qualified Contract occurs, the amount received will be treated as ordinary income subject to tax up to an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the contract value (unreduced by the amount of any surrender charge) immediately before the distribution over the contract owner’s investment in the contract at that time. Investment in the contract is generally equal to the amount of all contributions to the contract, plus amounts previously included in your gross income as the result of certain loans, assignments or gifts, less the aggregate amount of non-taxable distributions previously made.

In the case of a surrender under a non-qualified Contract, the amount received generally will be taxable only to the extent it exceeds the contract owner’s investment in the contract (cost basis).

     10% Penalty Tax. A distribution from a non-qualified Contract may be subject to a federal tax penalty equal to 10% of the amount treated as income. In general, however, there is no penalty on distributions:

made on or after the taxpayer reaches age 59½; made on or after the death of a contract owner (the annuitant if the contract owner is a non-natural person); attributable to the taxpayer’s becoming disabled as defined in the Tax Code; made as part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least annually) over your life or life expectancy or the joint lives or joint life expectancies of you and your designated beneficiary; or the distribution is allocable to investment in the contract before August 14, 1982.

The 10% penalty does not apply to distributions from an immediate annuity as defined in the Tax Code. Other exceptions may be applicable under certain circumstances and special rules may be applicable in connection with the exceptions enumerated above. A tax adviser should be consulted with regard to exceptions from the penalty tax.

     Tax-Free Exchanges. Section 1035 of the Tax Code permits the exchange of a life insurance, endowment or annuity contract for an annuity contract on a tax-free basis. In such instance, the “investment in the contract” in the old contract will carry over to the new contract. You should consult with your tax advisor regarding procedures for making Section 1035 exchanges.

If your Contract is purchased through a tax-free exchange of a life insurance, endowment or annuity contract that was purchased prior to August 14, 1982, then any distributions other than annuity payments will be treated, for tax purposes, as coming:

First, from any remaining “investment in the contract” made prior to August 14, 1982 and exchanged into the Contract; Next, from any “income on the contract” attributable to the investment made prior to August 14, 1982; Then, from any remaining “income on the contract;” and Lastly, from any remaining “investment in the contract.”

The IRS has concluded that in certain instances, the partial exchange of a portion of one annuity contract for another

</R>

Opportunities

72


<R>

contract will be tax-free. Pursuant to IRS guidance, receipt of withdrawals, surrenders or annuity payments (annuitizations) from either the original contract or the new contract during the 12 month period following the partial exchange may retroactively negate the partial exchange. If the partial exchange is retroactively negated, the partial surrender of the original contract will be treated as a withdrawal, taxable as ordinary income to the extent of gain in the original contract and, if the partial exchange occurred prior to you reaching age 59 1/2 , may be subject to an additional 10% tax penalty. A taxable event may be avoided if requirements identified as a qualifying event are satisfied. We are not responsible for the manner in which any other insurance company, for tax reporting purposes, or the IRS, with respect to the ultimate tax treatment, recognizes or reports a partial exchange. We strongly advise you to discuss any proposed 1035 exchange or subsequent distribution within 12 months with your tax advisor prior to proceeding with the transaction.

     Taxation of Annuity Payments. Although tax consequences may vary depending on the payment option elected under an annuity contract, a portion of each annuity payment is generally not taxed and the remainder is taxed as ordinary income. The non-taxable portion of an annuity payment is generally determined in a manner that is designed to allow you to recover your investment in the contract ratably on a tax-free basis over the expected stream of annuity payments, as determined when annuity payments start. Once your investment in the contract has been fully recovered, however, the full amount of each subsequent annuity payment is subject to tax as ordinary income. Any withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal payments you are receiving pursuant to the Income Optimizer under either the ING LifePay Plus or ING Joint LifePay Plus rider may also be subject to tax as ordinary income.

The tax treatment of partial annuitizations is unclear. We currently treat any partial annuitizations as withdrawals rather than as annuity payments. Please consult your tax adviser before electing a partial annuitization.

     Death Benefits. Amounts may be distributed from a Contract because of your death or the death of the annuitant. Generally, such amounts are includible in the income of the recipient as follows: (i) if distributed in a lump sum, they are taxed in the same manner as a surrender of the Contract, or (ii) if distributed under a payment option, they are taxed in the same way as annuity payments. Special rules may apply to amounts distributed after a Beneficiary has elected to maintain Contract value and receive payments.

Different distribution requirements apply if your death occurs:

After you begin receiving annuity payments under the Contract; or Before you begin receiving such distributions.

If your death occurs after you begin receiving annuity payments, distributions must be made at least as rapidly as under the method in effect at the time of your death.

If your death occurs before you begin receiving annuity payments, your entire balance must be distributed within five years after the date of your death. For example, if you died on September 1, 2008, your entire balance must be distributed by August 31, 2013. However, if distributions begin within one year of your death, then payments may be made over one of the following timeframes:

Over the life of the designated beneficiary; or

Over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the designated beneficiary.

If the designated beneficiary is your spouse, the contract may be continued with the surviving spouse as the new contract owner. If the contract owner is a non-natural person and the primary annuitant dies, the same rules apply on the death of the primary annuitant as outlined above for the death of a contract owner.

The Contract offers a death benefit that may exceed the greater of the premium payments and the contract value. Certain charges are imposed with respect to the death benefit. It is possible that these charges (or some portion thereof) could be treated for federal tax purposes as a distribution from the Contract.

     Assignments and Other Transfers. A transfer, pledge or assignment of ownership of a non-qualified contract, the selection of certain annuity dates, or the designation of an annuitant or payee other than an owner may

</R>

Opportunities

73


<R>

result in certain tax consequences to you that are not discussed herein. The assignment, pledge or agreement to assign or pledge any portion of the contract value generally will be treated as a distribution. Anyone contemplating any such transfer, pledge, assignment, or designation or exchange, should consult a tax adviser regarding the potential tax effects of such a transaction.

     Immediate Annuities. Under Section 72 of the Tax Code, an immediate annuity means an annuity (1) which is purchased with a single premium, (2) with annuity payments starting within one year from the date of purchase, and (3) which provides a series of substantially equal periodic payments made annually or more frequently. While this Contract is not designed as an immediate annuity, treatment as an immediate annuity would have significance with respect to exceptions from the 10% early withdrawal penalty, to contracts owned by non-natural persons, and for certain exchanges.

     Multiple Contracts. Tax laws require that all non-qualified deferred annuity contracts that are issued by a company or its affiliates to the same contract owner during any calendar year be treated as one annuity contract for purposes of determining the amount includible in gross income under Tax Code Section 72(e). In addition, the Treasury Department has specific authority to issue regulations that prevent the avoidance of Tax Code Section 72(e) through the serial purchase of annuity contracts or otherwise.

     Withholding. We will withhold and remit to the IRS a part of the taxable portion of each distribution made under a Contract unless the distributee notifies us at or before the time of the distribution that he or she elects not to have any amounts withheld. Withholding is mandatory, however, if the distributee fails to provide a valid taxpayer identification number or if we are notified by the IRS that the taxpayer identification number we have on file is incorrect. The withholding rates applicable to the taxable portion of periodic annuity payments are the same as the withholding rates generally applicable to payments of wages. In addition, a 10% withholding rate applies to the taxable portion of non-periodic payments. Regardless of whether you elect to have federal income tax withheld, you are still liable for payment of federal income tax on the taxable portion of the payment.

Certain states have indicated that state income tax withholding will also apply to payments from the contracts made to residents. Generally, an election out of federal withholding will also be considered an election out of state withholding. In some states, you may elect out of state withholding, even if federal withholding applies. If you need more information concerning a particular state or any required forms, please contact our Customer Service Center.

If you or your designated beneficiary is a non-resident alien, then any withholding is governed by Tax Code Section 1441 based on the individual’s citizenship, the country of domicile and treaty status, and we may require additional documentation prior to processing any requested transaction.

Taxation of Qualified Contracts

General

     The Contracts are primarily designed for use with IRAs under Tax Code Sections 401, 408 or 408A, and some provisions of 403 and 457 (We refer to all of these as “qualified plans”). The tax rules applicable to participants in these qualified plans vary according to the type of plan and the terms and conditions of the plan itself. The ultimate effect of federal income taxes on the amounts held under a Contract, or on annuity payments, depends on the type of retirement plan and your tax status. Special favorable tax treatment may be available for certain types of contributions and distributions. In addition, certain requirements must be satisfied in purchasing a qualified contract with proceeds from a tax-qualified plan in order to continue receiving favorable tax treatment.

Adverse tax consequences may result from: contributions in excess of specified limits; distributions before age 59½ (subject to certain exceptions); distributions that do not conform to specified commencement and minimum distribution rules; and in other specified circumstances. Some qualified plans may be subject to additional distribution or other requirements that are not incorporated into the Contract. No attempt is made to provide more than general information about the use of the Contracts with qualified plans. Contract owners, annuitants, and beneficiaries are cautioned that the rights of any person to any benefits under these qualified plans may be subject to the terms and conditions of the plans themselves, regardless of the terms and conditions of the Contract. The

</R>

<R>

Company is not bound by the terms and conditions of such plans to the extent such terms contradict the Contract, unless we consent.

Contract owners and beneficiaries generally are responsible for determining that contributions, distributions and other transactions with respect to the contract comply with applicable law. Therefore, you should seek competent legal and tax advice regarding the suitability of a contract for your particular situation. The following discussion assumes that qualified contracts are purchased with proceeds from and/or contributions under retirement plans or programs that qualify for the intended special federal tax treatment.

Tax Deferral

     Under the federal tax laws, earnings on amounts held in annuity contracts are generally not taxed until they are withdrawn. However, in the case of a qualified plan (as defined in this prospectus), an annuity contract is not necessary to obtain this favorable tax treatment and does not provide any tax benefits beyond the deferral already available to the qualified plan itself. Annuities do provide other features and benefits (such as guaranteed living benefits and/or death benefits or the option of lifetime income phase options at established rates) that may be valuable to you. You should discuss your alternatives with your financial representative taking into account the additional fees and expenses you may incur in an annuity.

     Section 401(a), 401(k), Roth 401(k), and 403(a) Plans. Sections 401(a), 401(k), and 403(a) of the Tax Code permit certain employers to establish various types of retirement plans for employees, and permits self-employed individuals to establish these plans for themselves and their employees. These retirement plans may permit the purchase of Contracts to accumulate retirement savings under the plans. Employers intending to use the Contract with such plans should seek competent legal advice.

The contracts may also be available as a Roth 401(k), as described in Tax Code Section 402A, and we may set up accounts for you under the Contract for Roth 401(k) contributions (“Roth 401(k) accounts”). Tax Code Section 402A allows employees of certain private employers to contribute after-tax salary contributions to a Roth 401(k), which provides for tax-free distributions, subject to certain restrictions.

     Individual Retirement Annuities. Section 408 of the Tax Code permits eligible individuals to contribute to an individual retirement program known as an Individual Retirement Annuity (“IRA”). IRAs are subject to limits on the amounts that can be contributed, the deductible amount of the contribution, the persons who may be eligible, and the time when distributions commence. Contributions to IRAs must be made in cash or as a rollover or a transfer from another eligible plan. Also, distributions from IRAs, individual retirement accounts, and other types of retirement plans may be “rolled over” on a tax-deferred basis into an IRA. If you make a tax-free rollover of a distribution from an IRA you may not make another tax-free rollover from the IRA within a 1-year period. Sales of the contract for use with IRAs may be subject to special requirements of the IRS.

The IRS has not reviewed the contracts described in this prospectus for qualification as IRAs and has not addressed, in a ruling of general applicability, whether the contract’s death benefit provisions comply with IRS qualification requirements.

     Roth IRAs. Section 408A of the Tax Code permits certain eligible individuals to contribute to a Roth IRA. Contributions to a Roth IRA are subject to limits on the amount of contributions and the persons who may be eligible to contribute, are not deductible, and must be made in cash or as a rollover or transfer from another Roth IRA or other IRA. Certain qualifying individuals may convert an IRA, SEP, or a SIMPLE to a Roth IRA. Such rollovers and conversions are subject to tax, and other special rules may apply. If you make a tax-free rollover of a distribution from a Roth IRA to another Roth IRA, you may not make another tax-free rollover from the Roth IRA within a 1-year period. A 10% penalty may apply to amounts attributable to a conversion to a Roth IRA if the amounts are distributed during the five taxable years beginning with the year in which the conversion was made.

Sales of a contract for use with a Roth IRA may be subject to special requirements of the IRS. The IRS has not reviewed the contracts described in this prospectus for qualification as IRAs and has not addressed, in a ruling of general applicability, whether the contract’s death benefit provisions comply with IRS qualification requirements.

     Section 403(b) Tax-Sheltered Annuities. The contracts are no longer available for purchase as Tax Code section 403(b) tax-sheltered annuities. Existing contracts issued as Tax Code section 403(b) tax-sheltered annuities will continue to be maintained as such under the applicable rules and regulations.

The Treasury Department has issued regulations which generally take effect on January 1, 2009. Existing contracts will be modified as necessary to comply with these regulations where allowed, or where required by law in order to maintain their status as section 403(b) tax-sheltered annuities. The final regulations include: (a) the ability to terminate a 403(b) plan, which would entitle a participant to a distribution; (b) the revocation of IRS Revenue Ruling 90-24, and the resulting increase in restrictions on a participant’s right to transfer his or her 403(b) accounts; and (3) the imposition of withdrawal restrictions on non-salary reduction contribution amounts, as well as other changes.

Contributions

     In order to be excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes, total annual contributions to certain qualified plans are limited by the Tax Code. You should consult with your tax adviser in connection with contributions to a qualified contract.

Distributions – General

     Certain tax rules apply to distributions from the Contract. A distribution is any amount taken from a Contract including withdrawals, annuity payments, rollovers, exchanges and death benefit proceeds. We report the taxable portion of all distributions to the IRS.

     Section 401(a), 401(k) and 403(a) Plans. Distributions from these plans are taxed as received unless one of the following is true:

The distribution is an eligible rollover distribution and is rolled over to another plan eligible to receive rollovers or to a traditional IRA in accordance with the Tax Code; You made after-tax contributions to the plan. In this case, depending upon the type of distribution, the amount will be taxed according to the rules detailed in the Tax Code; or The distribution is a qualified health insurance premium of a retired safety officer as defined in the Pension Protection Act of 2006.

A payment is an eligible rollover distribution unless it is:

part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least one per year) made over the life expectancy of the participant or the joint life expectancy of the participant and his designated beneficiary or for a specified period of 10 years or more; a required minimum distribution under Tax Code Section 401(a)(9); a hardship withdrawal; otherwise excludable from income; or Not recognized under applicable regulations as eligible for rollover.

The Tax Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distribution from a Contract used with a 401(a), 401(k) or 403(a) plan unless certain exceptions, including one or more of the following, have occurred:

You have attained age 59½;

You have become disabled, as defined in the Tax Code; You have died and the distribution is to your beneficiary;

You have separated from service with the sponsor at or after age 55;

The distribution amount is rolled over into another eligible retirement plan or to an IRA in accordance with the terms of the Tax Code; You have separated from service with the plan sponsor and the distribution amount is made in substantially equal periodic payments (at least annually) over your life or the life expectancy or the joint lives or joint life expectancies of you and your designated beneficiary; The distribution is made due to an IRS levy upon your plan;

The withdrawal amount is paid to an alternate payee under a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO); or The distribution is a qualified reservist distribution as defined under the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (401(k) plans only).

In addition, the 10% penalty tax does not apply to the amount of a distribution equal to unreimbursed medical expenses incurred by you during the taxable year that qualify for deduction as specified in the Tax Code. The Tax Code may provide other exceptions or impose other penalties in other circumstances.

     Individual Retirement Annuities. All distributions from an IRA are taxed as received unless either one of the following is true:

The distribution is rolled over to another IRA or to a plan eligible to receive rollovers as permitted under the Tax Code; or You made after-tax contributions to the IRA. In this case, the distribution will be taxed according to rules detailed in the Tax Code.

The Tax Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distribution from an IRA unless certain exceptions, including one or more of the following, have occurred:

You have attained age 59½;

You have become disabled, as defined in the Tax Code; You have died and the distribution is to your beneficiary;

The distribution amount is rolled over into another eligible retirement plan or to an IRA in accordance with the terms of the Tax Code; The distribution is made due to an IRS levy upon your plan; The withdrawal amount is paid to an alternate payee under a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO); or The distribution is a qualified reservist distribution as defined under the Pension Protection Act of 2006.

In addition, the 10% penalty tax does not apply to a distribution made from an IRA to pay for health insurance premiums for certain unemployed individuals, a qualified first-time home purchase, or for higher education expenses.

     Roth IRAs. A qualified distribution from a Roth IRA is not taxed when it is received. A qualified distribution is a distribution:

Made after the five-taxable year period beginning with the first taxable year for which a contribution was made to a Roth IRA of the owner; and Made after you attain age 59½, die, become disabled as defined in the Tax Code, or for a qualified first-time home purchase.

If a distribution is not qualified, generally it will be taxable to the extent of the accumulated earnings. A partial distribution will first be treated as a return of contributions which is not taxable and then as taxable accumulated earnings.

The Tax Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distribution from a Roth IRA that is not a qualified distribution unless certain exceptions have occurred. In general, the exceptions for an IRA listed above also apply to a distribution from a Roth IRA that is not a qualified distribution or a rollover to a Roth IRA that is not a qualified rollover contribution. The 10% penalty tax is also waived on a distribution made from a Roth IRA to pay for health insurance premiums for certain unemployed individuals, used for a qualified first-time home purchase, or for higher education expenses.

     403(b) Plans. Distributions from your contract are subject to the requirements of Code Section 403(b), the Treasury Regulations, and, if applicable, the Plan under which the assets in your contract are covered. In accordance with Code Section 403(b) and the Treasury Regulations, we have no responsibility or obligation to make

any distribution (including distributions due to loans, annuity payouts, qualified domestic relations orders, hardship withdrawals and systematic distributions options) from your contract until we have received instructions or information from your Employer and/or its designee or, if permitted under Code Section 403(b) and the Treasury Regulations, you in a form acceptable to us and necessary for us to administer your contract in accordance with Code Section 403(b) the Treasury Regulations, and, if applicable, the Plan.

All distributions from these plans are taxed as received unless one of the following is true:

The distribution is an eligible rollover distribution and is rolled over to another plan eligible to receive rollovers or to a traditional IRA in accordance with the Tax Code; You made after-tax contributions to the plan. In this case, depending upon the type of distribution, the amount will be taxed according to the rules detailed in the Tax Code; or The distribution is a qualified health insurance premium of a retired public safety officer as defined in the Pension Protection Act of 2006.

A payment is an eligible rollover distribution unless it is:

Part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least one per year) made over the life expectancy of the participant or the joint life expectancy of the participant and his designated beneficiary or for a specified period of 10 years or more; A required minimum distribution under Tax Code section 401(a)(9); A hardship withdrawal; Otherwise excludable from income; or Not recognized under applicable regulations as eligible for rollover.

The Tax Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distribution from a contract used with a 403(b) plan, unless certain exceptions have occurred. In general, the exceptions for an IRA listed above also apply to a distribution from a 403(b) plan, plus in the event you have separated from service with the sponsor at or after age 55, or you have separated from service with the plan sponsor and the distribution amount is made in substantially equal periodic payments (at least annually) over your life or the life expectancy or the joint lives or joint life expectancies of you and your designated beneficiary. In addition, the 10% penalty tax does not apply to the amount of a distribution equal to unreimbursed medical expenses incurred by you during the taxable year that qualify for deduction as specified in the Tax Code. The Tax Code may provide other exceptions or impose other penalty taxes in other circumstances.

Distribution of amounts restricted under Tax Code section 403(b)(11) may only occur upon your death, attainment of age 59 1/2, severance from employment, disability or financial hardship. Such distributions remain subject to other applicable restrictions under the Tax Code and the regulations.

     Special Hurricane-Related Relief. The Katrina Emergency Tax Relief Act and the Gulf Opportunity Zone Act provide tax relief to victims of Hurricanes Katrina, Rita and Wilma. The relief includes a waiver of the 10% penalty tax on qualified hurricane distributions from eligible retirement plans. In addition, the 20% mandatory withholding rules do not apply to these distributions and the tax may be spread out ratably over a three-year period. A recipient of a qualified hurricane distribution may also elect to re-contribute all or a portion of the distribution to an eligible retirement plan within three (3) years of receipt without tax consequences. Other relief may also apply. You should consult a competent tax adviser for further information.

     Lifetime Required Minimum Distributions (Sections 401(a), 401(k), Roth 401(k), 403(a), 403(b) and IRAs only).

     To avoid certain tax penalties, you and any designated beneficiary must also meet the minimum distribution requirements imposed by the Tax Code. These rules may dictate the following:

Start date for distributions;

The time period in which all amounts in your account(s) must be distributed; and Distribution amounts.

</R>

Opportunities

78


<R>

     Start Date and Time Period. Generally, you must begin receiving distributions by April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which you attain age 70½. We must pay out distributions from the contract over a period not extending beyond one of the following time periods:

Over your life or the joint lives of you and your designated beneficiary; or

Over a period not greater than your life expectancy or the joint life expectancies of you and your designated beneficiary.

     Distribution Amounts. The amount of each required distribution must be calculated in accordance with Tax Code Section 401(a)(9). The entire interest in the account includes the amount of any outstanding rollover, transfer, recharacterization, if applicable, and the actuarial present value of other benefits provided under the account, such as guaranteed death benefits.

     50% Excise Tax. If you fail to receive the minimum required distribution for any tax year, a 50% excise tax may be imposed on the required amount that was not distributed.

Lifetime Required Minimum Distributions are not applicable to Roth IRAs during your lifetime. Further information regarding required minimum distributions may be found in your contract.

     Required Distributions Upon Death (Sections 401(a), 401(k), Roth 401(k), 403(a), 403(b), IRAs and Roth IRAs Only). Different distribution requirements apply after your death, depending upon if you have been receiving required minimum distributions. Further information regarding required distributions upon death may be found in your contract.

If your death occurs on or after you begin receiving minimum distributions under the contract, distributions generally must be made at least as rapidly as under the method in effect at the time of your death. Tax Code Section 401(a)(9) provides specific rules for calculating the required minimum distributions after your death.

If your death occurs before you begin receiving minimum distributions under the contract, your entire balance must be distributed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the date of your death. For example, if you died on September 1, 2006, your entire balance must be distributed to the designated beneficiary by December 31, 2011. However, if distributions begin by December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year of your death, and you have named a designated beneficiary, then payments may be made over either of the following time frames:

Over the life of the designated beneficiary; or

Over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the designated beneficiary.

     Start Dates for Spousal Beneficiaries. If the designated beneficiary is your spouse, distributions must begin on or before the later of the following:

December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year of your death; or December 31 of the calendar year in which you would have attained age 70½.

     No designated beneficiary. If there is no designated beneficiary, the entire interest generally must be distributed by the end of the calendar containing the fifth anniversary of the contract owner’s death.

     Special Rule for IRA Spousal Beneficiaries (IRAs and Roth IRAs Only). In lieu of taking a distribution under these rules, if the sole designated beneficiary is the contract owner’s surviving spouse, the spousal beneficiary may elect to treat the contract as his or her own IRA and defer taking a distribution until his or her own start date. The surviving spouse is deemed to have made such an election if the surviving spouse makes a rollover to or from the contract or fails to take a distribution within the required time period.

Withholding

Any taxable distributions under the contract are generally subject to withholding. Federal income tax liability

rates vary according to the type of distribution and the recipient’s tax status.

     401(a), 401(k), Roth 401(k), 403(a) and 403(b). Generally, distributions from these plans are subject to mandatory 20% federal income tax withholding. However, mandatory withholding will not be required if you elect a direct rollover of the distributions to an eligible retirement plan or in the case of certain distributions described in the Tax Code.

     IRAs and Roth IRAs. Generally, you or, if applicable, a designated beneficiary may elect not to have tax withheld from distributions.

     Non-resident Aliens. If you or your designated beneficiary is a non-resident alien, then any withholding is governed by Tax Code section 1441 based on the individual’s citizenship, the country of domicile and treaty status, and we may require additional documentation prior to processing any requested information.

Assignment and Other Transfers

     IRAS and Roth IRAs. The Tax Code does not allow a transfer or assignment of your rights under these contracts except in limited circumstances. Adverse tax consequences may result if you assign or transfer your interest in the contract to persons other than your spouse incident to a divorce. Anyone contemplating such an assignment or transfer should contact a qualified tax adviser regarding the potential tax effects of such a transaction.

     Section 403(b) Plans. Adverse tax consequences to the plan and/or to you may result if your beneficial interest in the contract is assigned or transferred to persons other than:

A plan participant as a means to provide benefit payments;

An alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order in accordance with Tax Code section 414(p); or The Company as collateral for a loan.

Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit

     Living Benefits. Except as otherwise noted below, when a withdrawal from a nonqualified contract occurs under the ING LifePay Plus or ING LifePay Plus rider, the amount received will be treated as ordinary income subject to tax up to an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the contract value (unreduced by the amount of any deferred sales charge) immediately before the distribution over the contract owner’s investment in the contract at that time.

Investment in the contract is generally equal to the amount of all contributions to the contract, plus amounts previously included in your gross income as the result of certain loans, assignments, or gifts, less the aggregate amount of non-taxable distributions previously made. For nonqualified contracts, the income on the contract for purposes of calculating the taxable amount of a distribution may be unclear. For example, the living benefits provided under the ING LifePay Plus or ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, as well as the market value adjustment, could increase the contract value that applies. Thus, the income on the contract could be higher than the amount of income that would be determined without regard to such a benefit. As a result, you could have higher amounts of income than will be reported to you. In addition, payments under any guaranteed payment phase of such riders after the contract value has been reduced to zero may be subject to the exclusion ratio rules under Tax Code Section 72(b) for tax purposes.

Payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal pursuant to the Income Optimizer under the ING LifePay Plus or ING Joint LifePay Plus rider are designed to be treated as annuity payments and will be reported as annuity payments for withholding purposes. A portion of each annuity payment is generally not taxed and the remainder is taxed as ordinary income. The non-taxable portion of an annuity payment is generally determined in a manner that is designed to allow you to recover your investment in the contract ratably on a tax-free basis over the expected stream of annuity payments, as determined when your payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal start. Once your investment in the contract has been fully recovered, however, the full amount of each subsequent payment is

subject to tax as ordinary income. Any withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal payments you are receiving may also be subject to tax as ordinary income.

The tax treatment of partial annuitizations is unclear. We currently treat any partial annuitization, such as those associated with the minimum guaranteed income benefit as withdrawals rather than annuity payments. Please consult your tax adviser before electing a partial annuitization.

     Enhanced Death Benefits. The Contract offers a death benefit that may exceed the greater of the premium payments and the contract value. It is possible that the IRS could characterize such a death benefit as an incidental death benefit. In addition, the provision of such benefits may result in currently taxable income to contract owners, and the presence of the death benefit could affect the amount of required minimum distributions. Finally, certain charges are imposed with respect to some of the available death benefits. It is possible those charges (or some portion thereof) could be treated for federal tax purposes as a distribution from the Contract.

Possible Changes in Taxation

Although the likelihood of legislative change and tax reform is uncertain, there is always the possibility that the tax treatment of the Contracts could change by legislation or other means. It is also possible that any change could be retroactive (that is, effective before the date of the change). You should consult a tax adviser with respect to legislative developments and their effect on the Contract.

Taxation of Company

We are taxed as a life insurance company under the Tax Code. The Separate Account is not a separate entity from us. Therefore, it is not taxed separately as a “regulated investment company,” but is taxed as part of the Company.

We automatically apply investment income and capital gains attributable to the separate account to increase reserves under the contracts. Because of this, under existing federal tax law we believe that any such income and gains will not be taxed to the extent that such income and gains are applied to increase reserves under the contracts. In addition, any foreign tax credits attributable to the separate account will be first used to reduce any income taxes imposed on the separate account before being used by the Company.

In summary, we do not expect that we will incur any federal income tax liability attributable to the separate account and we do not intend to make any provision for such taxes. However, changes in federal tax laws and/or their interpretation may result in our being taxed on income or gains attributable to the separate account. In this case, we may impose a charge against the separate account (with respect to some or all of the Contracts) to set aside provisions to pay such taxes. We may deduct this amount from the separate account, including from your account value invested in the subaccounts.

  APPENDIX B

The Investment Portfolios

<R>

During the accumulation phase, you may allocate your premium payments and contract value to any of the investment portfolios available under this Contract, plus any Fixed Interest Allocation that is available. They are listed in this appendix. You bear the entire investment risk for amounts you allocate to any investment portfolio, and you may lose your principal.

</R>

The investment results of the mutual funds (funds) are likely to differ significantly and there is no assurance that any of the funds will achieve their respective investment objectives. You should consider the investment objectives, risks and charges and expenses of the funds carefully before investing. Please refer to the fund prospectuses for this and additional information.

Shares of the funds will rise and fall in value and you could lose money by investing in the funds. Shares of the funds are not bank deposits and are not guaranteed, endorsed or insured by any financial institution, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Except as noted, all funds are diversified, as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Fund prospectuses may be obtained free of charge, from our Customer Service Center at the address and telephone number listed in the prospectus, by accessing the SEC’s web site or by contacting the SEC Public Reference Room.

Certain funds offered under the contracts have investment objectives and policies similar to other funds managed by the fund’s investment adviser. The investment results of a fund may be higher or lower than those of other funds managed by the same adviser. There is no assurance and no representation is made that the investment results of any fund will be comparable to those of another fund managed by the same investment adviser.

Certain funds are designated as “Master-Feeder” or “LifeStyle Funds.” Funds offered in a Master-Feeder structure (such as the American Funds) or fund of funds structure (such as the LifeStyle Funds) may have higher fees and expenses than a fund that invests directly in debt and equity securities.

Consult with your investment professional to determine if the investment portfolios may be suited to your financial needs, investment time horizon and risk tolerance. You should periodically review these factors to determine if you need to change your investment strategy.

  APPENDIX C

Fixed Account II

Fixed Account II (“Fixed Account”) is an optional fixed interest allocation offered during the accumulation phase of your variable annuity contract between you and ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (“ING USA,” the “Company,” “we” or “our”). The Fixed Account, which is a segregated asset account of ING USA, provides a means for you to invest on a tax-deferred basis and earn a guaranteed interest for guaranteed interest periods (Fixed Interest Allocation(s)). We will credit your Fixed Interest Allocation(s) with a fixed rate of interest. We currently offer Fixed Interest Allocations with guaranteed interest periods that may vary by maturity, state of issue and rate. In addition, we may offer DCA Fixed Interest Allocations, which are 6-month and 1-year Fixed Interest Allocations available exclusively in connection with our dollar cost averaging program. We may offer additional guaranteed interest periods in some or all states, may not offer all guaranteed interest periods on all contracts or in all states and the rates for a given guaranteed interest period may vary among contracts. We set the interest rates periodically. We may credit a different interest rate for each interest period. The interest you earn in the Fixed Account as well as your principal is guaranteed by ING USA, as long as you do not take your money out before the maturity date for the applicable interest period. If you take your money out from a Fixed Interest Allocation more than 30 days before the applicable maturity date, we will apply a market value adjustment (“Market Value Adjustment”). A Market Value Adjustment could increase or decrease your contract value and/or the amount you take out. A surrender charge may also apply to withdrawals from your contract. You bear the risk that you may receive less than your principal because of the Market Value Adjustment.

For contracts sold in some states, not all Fixed Interest Allocations are available. You have a right to return a contract for a refund as described in the prospectus.

The Fixed Account

You may allocate premium payments and transfer your Contract value to the guaranteed interest periods of the Fixed Account during the accumulation period as described in the prospectus. Every time you allocate money to the Fixed Account, we set up a Fixed Interest Allocation for the guaranteed interest period you select. We will credit your Fixed Interest Allocation with a guaranteed interest rate for the interest period you select, so long as you do not withdraw money from that Fixed Interest Allocation before the end of the guaranteed interest period. Each guaranteed interest period ends on its maturity date which is the last day of the month in which the interest period is scheduled to expire.

Your Contract value in the Fixed Account is the sum of your Fixed Interest Allocations and the interest credited as adjusted for any withdrawals, transfers or other charges we may impose, including any Market Value Adjustment. Your Fixed Interest Allocation will be credited with the guaranteed interest rate in effect for the guaranteed interest period you selected when we receive and accept your premium or reallocation of Contract value. We will credit interest daily at a rate that yields the quoted guaranteed interest rate.

If you surrender, withdraw, transfer or annuitize your investment in a Fixed Interest Allocation more than 30 days before the end of the guaranteed interest period, we will apply a Market Value Adjustment to the transaction. A Market Value Adjustment could increase or decrease the amount you surrender, withdraw, transfer or annuitize, depending on current interest rates at the time of the transaction. You bear the risk that you may receive less than your principal because of the Market Value Adjustment.

Guaranteed Interest Rates

<R>

Each Fixed Interest Allocation will have an interest rate that is guaranteed as long as you do not take your money out until its maturity date. We do not have a specific formula for establishing the guaranteed interest rates for the different guaranteed interest periods. We determine guaranteed interest rates at our sole discretion. We cannot predict the level of future interest rates. For more information see the prospectus for the Fixed Account.

</R>

Opportunities

C1


Transfers from a Fixed Interest Allocation

You may transfer your Contract value in a Fixed Interest Allocation to one or more new Fixed Interest Allocations with new guaranteed interest periods, or to any of the subaccounts of ING USA’s Separate Account B as described in the prospectus on the maturity date of a guaranteed interest period. The minimum amount that you can transfer to or from any Fixed Interest Allocation is $100. Transfers from a Fixed Interest Allocation may be subject to a Market Value Adjustment. If you have a special Fixed Interest Allocation that was offered exclusively with our dollar cost averaging program, canceling dollar cost averaging will cause a transfer of the entire Contract value in such Fixed Interest Allocation to the Liquid Assets subaccount, and such a transfer will be subject to a Market Value Adjustment.

<R>

Please be aware that the benefit we pay under certain optional benefit riders will be adjusted by any transfers you make to and from the Fixed Interest Allocations during specified periods while the rider is in effect.

</R>

Withdrawals from a Fixed Interest Allocation

During the accumulation phase, you may withdraw a portion of your Contract value in any Fixed Interest Allocation. You may make systematic withdrawals of only the interest earned during the prior month, quarter or year, depending on the frequency chosen, from a Fixed Interest Allocation under our systematic withdrawal option. A withdrawal from a Fixed Interest Allocation may be subject to a Market Value Adjustment and a contract surrender charge. Be aware that withdrawals may have federal income tax consequences, including a 10% penalty tax, as well as state income tax consequences.

<R>

Please be aware that the benefit we pay under any of the optional benefit riders will be reduced by any withdrawals you made from the Fixed Interest Allocations during the period while the rider is in effect.

</R>

Market Value Adjustment

A Market Value Adjustment may decrease, increase or have no effect on your Contract value. We will apply a Market Value Adjustment (i) whenever you withdraw or transfer money from a Fixed Interest Allocation (unless made within 30 days before the maturity date of the applicable guaranteed interest period, or under the systematic withdrawal or dollar cost averaging program) and (ii) if on the annuity start date a guaranteed interest period for any Fixed Interest Allocation does not end on or within 30 days of the annuity start date.

A Market Value Adjustment may be positive, negative or result in no change. In general, if interest rates are rising, you bear the risk that any Market Value Adjustment will likely be negative and reduce your Contract value. On the other hand, if interest rates are falling, it is more likely that you will receive a positive Market Value Adjustment that increases your Contract value. In the event of a full surrender, transfer or annuitization from a Fixed Interest Allocation, we will add or subtract any Market Value Adjustment from the amount surrendered, transferred or annuitized. In the event of a partial withdrawal, transfer or annuitization, we will add or subtract any Market Value Adjustment from the total amount withdrawn, transferred or annuitized in order to provide the amount requested. If a negative Market Value Adjustment exceeds your Contract value in the Fixed Interest Allocation, we will consider your request to be a full surrender, transfer or annuitization of the Fixed Interest Allocation.

Contract Value in the Fixed Interest Allocations

On the contract date, the Contract value in any Fixed Interest Allocation in which you are invested is equal to the portion of the initial premium paid and designated for allocation to the Fixed Interest Allocation. On each business day after the contract date, we calculate the amount of Contract value in each Fixed Interest Allocation as follows:

(1)      We take the Contract value in the Fixed Interest Allocation at the end of the preceding business day.
(2)      We credit a daily rate of interest on (1) at the guaranteed rate since the preceding business day.
(3)      We add (1) and (2).
(4)      We subtract from (3) any transfers from that Fixed Interest Allocation.
(5)      We subtract from (4) any withdrawals, and then subtract any contract fees (including any rider charges) and premium taxes.

Opportunities

C2


Additional premium payments and transfers allocated to the Fixed Account will be placed in a new Fixed Interest Allocation. The Contract value on the date of allocation will be the amount allocated. Several examples which illustrate how the Market Value Adjustment works are included in the prospectus for the Fixed Account.

Cash Surrender Value

The cash surrender value is the amount you receive when you surrender the Contract. The cash surrender value of amounts allocated to the Fixed Account will fluctuate daily based on the interest credited to Fixed Interest Allocations, any Market Value Adjustment, and any surrender charge. We do not guarantee any minimum cash surrender value. On any date during the accumulation phase, we calculate the cash surrender value as follows: we start with your Contract value, then we adjust for any Market Value Adjustment, and then we deduct any surrender charge, any charge for premium taxes, the annual contract administrative fee (unless waived), and any optional benefit rider charge, and any other charges incurred but not yet deducted.

Dollar Cost Averaging from Fixed Interest Allocations

<R>

You may elect to participate in our dollar cost averaging program from a Fixed Account Interest Allocation with a guaranteed interest period of 1 year or less. The Fixed Interest Allocations serve as the source accounts from which we will, on a monthly basis, automatically transfer a set dollar amount of money to other Fixed Interest Allocations or contract investment portfolio subaccounts selected by you.

The dollar cost averaging program is designed to lessen the impact of market fluctuation on your investment. Since we transfer the same dollar amount to subaccounts each month, more units of a subaccount are purchased if the value of its unit is low and fewer units are purchased if the value of its unit is high. Therefore, a lower than average value per unit may be achieved over the long term. However, we cannot guarantee this. When you elect the dollar cost averaging program, you are continuously investing in securities regardless of fluctuating price levels. You should consider your tolerance for investing through periods of fluctuating price levels.

</R>

You elect the dollar amount you want transferred under this program. Each monthly transfer must be at least $100. You may change the transfer amount once each contract year.

Transfers from a Fixed Interest Allocation under the dollar cost averaging program are not subject to a Market Value Adjustment.

We may in the future offer additional subaccounts or withdraw any subaccount or Fixed Interest Allocation to or from the dollar cost averaging program or otherwise modify, suspend or terminate this program. Of course, such change will not affect any dollar cost averaging programs in operation at the time.

Suspension of Payments

We have the right to delay payment of amounts from a Fixed Interest Allocation for up to 6 months.

  APPENDIX E

Surrender Charge for Excess Withdrawals Example

The following assumes you made an initial premium payment of $10,000 and additional premium payments of $10,000 in each of the second and third contract years, for total premium payments under the Contract of $30,000. It also assumes a withdrawal at the end of the third contract year of 30% of the contract value of $35,000.

In this example, $8,000 (10% of the total premium payments of $30,000, which is $3,000, plus cumulative earnings, which is $35,000 less $30,000, which equals $5,000) is the maximum free withdrawal amount that you may withdraw without a surrender charge. The total amount withdrawn from the contract would be $10,500 ($35,000 x .30). Therefore, $2,500 ($10,500 - $8,000) is considered an excess withdrawal of a part of the initial premium payment of $10,000 and would be subject to a 6% surrender charge of $150 ($2,500 x .06). The amount of the withdrawal paid to you will be $10,500, and in addition, $150 will be deducted from your contract value.

This example does not take into account any Market Value Adjustment or deduction of any premium taxes.

  APPENDIX H

ING LifePay Plus and ING Joint LifePay Plus Partial Withdrawal Amount Examples

The following example shows the adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has begun.

Illustration 1: Adjustment to the ING LifePay Plus Base for a withdrawal taken prior to the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase.

Assume the Annuitant is age 55 and the first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges. Because the ING LifePay Plus Rider is not yet eligible to enter the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, there is no Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the entire withdrawal is considered excess.

If the ING LifePay Plus Base and Account Value before the withdrawal are $100,000 and $90,000, respectively, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will be reduced by 3.33% ($3,000/$90,000) to $96,667 ((1 – 3.33%) * $100,000).

<R>

Any additional withdrawals taken prior to the Annuitant reaching age 59 ½ will also result in an immediate pro-rata reduction to the ING LifePay Plus Base.

</R>

The following are examples of adjustments to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal:

Illustration 2: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. However, because only $4,500 in gross withdrawals was taken during the contract year prior to this withdrawal, $500 of the $1,500 gross withdrawal is not considered excess.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000, and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $1,500.

If the Contract Value before this withdrawal is $50,000, and the Contract Value is $49,500 after the part of the gross withdrawal that was within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 2.02% ($1,000 / $49,500) to $4,899 ((1 - 2.02%) * $5,000).

Illustration 3: A withdrawal exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount but does not exceed the Additional Withdrawal Amount.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. The Required Minimum Distribution for the current calendar year applicable to this contract is determined to be $6,000. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of this amount above the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000).

Opportunities

H1


The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. Total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, however, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not adjusted until the Additional Withdrawal Amount is exhausted. The amount by which total net withdrawals taken exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000), is the same as the Additional Withdrawal Amount, so no adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is made. If total net withdrawals taken had exceeded the sum of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional Withdrawal Amount, then an adjustment would be made to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Illustration 4: The Additional Withdrawal Amount at the end of the calendar year before it is withdrawn.

Assume the most recent contract date was July 1, 2007 and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. Also assume RMDs, applicable to this contract, are $6,000 and $5,000 for 2008 and 2009 calendar years respectively.

Between July 1, 2007 and December 31, 2007, a withdrawal of $5,000 is taken which exhausts the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

On January 1, 2008, the Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of the 2008 RMD above the existing Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000). Note that while the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exhausted, it is still used to calculate the Additional Withdrawal Amount.

The owner now has until December 31, 2009 to take the newly calculated Additional Withdrawal Amount of $1,000. The owner decides not to take the Additional Withdrawal Amount of $1,000 in 2008.

On January 1, 2009, the Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of the 2009 RMD above the existing Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $0 ($5,000 - $5,000). Note that the Additional Withdrawal Amount of $1,000 from the 2008 calendar year carries over into the 2009 calendar year and is available for withdrawal.

Illustration 5: A withdrawal exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount and the Additional Withdrawal Amount.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. The Required Minimum Distribution for the current calendar year applicable to this contract is determined to be $6,000. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of this amount above the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000).

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. Total net withdrawals taken, $8,000, exceed the sum of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional Withdrawal Amount, $6,000, and there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Opportunities

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $8,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $3,500). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the sum of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional Withdrawal Amount ($8,000 - $6,000 = $2,000), and the amount of the current gross withdrawal ($3,500).

<R>

If the Contract Value before this withdrawal is $50,000, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 4.00% ($2,000 / $48,500) to $4,794 ((1 - 4.00%) * $5,000).

</R>

Illustration 6: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. However, because only $4,500 in gross withdrawals was taken during the contract year prior to this withdrawal, $500 of the $1,500 gross withdrawal is not considered excess.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000, and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $1,500.

If the Account Value after the part of the gross withdrawal that was within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $500, is $49,500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 2.02% ($1,000 / $49,500) to $4,899 ((1 - 2.02%) * $5,000).

Another withdrawal is taken during that same contract year in the amount of $400 net, with $100 of surrender charges. Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,500 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500 + $500). The adjustment to the MAW is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,500, and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $500.

If the Account Value before this withdrawal is $48,500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 1.03% ($500 / $48,500) to $4,849 ((1 – 1.03%) * $4,899).

  APPENDIX I

Examples of Fixed Allocation Fund Automatic Rebalancing

The following examples are designed to assist you in understanding how Fixed Allocation Fund Automatic Rebalancing works. The examples assume that there are no investment earnings or losses.

I. Subsequent Payments

A. Assume that on Day 1, an owner deposits an initial payment of $100,000, which is allocated 100% to Accepted Funds. No Fixed Allocation Fund Automatic Rebalancing would occur, because this allocation meets the required investment option allocation.

<R>

B. Assume that on Day 2, the owner deposits an additional payment of $500,000, bringing the total contract value to $600,000, and allocates this deposit 100% to Other Funds. Because the percentage allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds (0%) is less than 30% of the total amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and the Other Funds, we will automatically reallocate $150,000 from the amount allocated to the Other Funds (30% of the $500,000 allocated to the Other Funds) to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Your ending allocations will be $100,000 to Accepted Funds, $150,000 to the Fixed Allocation Funds, and $350,000 to Other Funds.

</R>

II. Partial Withdrawals

<R>

A. Assume that on Day 1, an owner deposits an initial payment of $100,000, which is allocated 65% to Accepted Funds ($65,000), 30% to the Fixed Allocation Fund ($30,000), and 5% to Other Funds ($5,000). No Fixed Allocation Fund Automatic Rebalancing would occur, because this allocation meets the required investment option allocation.

B. Assume that on Day 2, the owner requests a partial withdrawal of $29,000 from the Fixed Allocation Fund. Because the remaining amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Fund ($11,000) is less than 30% of the total amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Fund and the Other Funds, we will automatically reallocate $800 from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Fund, so that the amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Fund ($1,800) is 30% of the total amount allocated to the Fixed Allocation Fund and Other Funds ($16,000).

ING LifePay Plus and ING Joint LifePay Plus

<R>

Important Note: The information immediately below pertains to the form of the ING LifePay Plus and ING Joint LifePay Plus riders available for sale on and after April 28, 2008 through May 1, 2009 in states where approved (page J10 for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider). If this form of the ING LifePay Plus or ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is not yet approved for sale in your state, or if you purchased a prior version, please see page J20 for more information (page J29 for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider).

</R>

ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider. The ING LifePay Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of the annuitant, even if these withdrawals reduce your Contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are concerned that you may outlive your income.

<R>

     Eligibility. The annuitant must be the owner or one of the owners, unless the owner is a non-natural owner. Joint annuitants are not allowed. The maximum issue age is 80 (owner and annuitant must age qualify). The issue age is the age of the owner (or the annuitant if there are joint owners or the owner is non-natural) on the rider effective date. The ING LifePay Plus rider is subject to broker/dealer availability. Please note that the ING LifePay Plus rider will not be issued until your contract value is allocated in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below.

</R>

Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 are eligible for the ING LifePay Plus rider, subject to the conditions, requirements and limitations of the prior paragraph. Such Contracts must not already have a living benefit rider. Or if your Contract already has the ING LifePay or ING LifePay Plus rider, then you may be eligible to elect this version of the ING LifePay Plus rider for a limited time. There is an election form for this purpose. Please contact the Customer Service Center for more information.

Rider Effective Date. The rider effective date is the date that coverage under the ING LifePay Plus rider begins. If you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider when the Contract is issued, the rider effective date is also the Contract date. If the ING LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue, the rider effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once each quarter of a contract year from the contract date.

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

<R>
Maximum Annual Charge  Current Annual Charge 
1.30%  0.85% 

</R> <R>

This quarterly charge is a percentage of the ING LifePay Plus Base. The current annual charge is 0.75% if this rider was purchased before 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 following the rider effective date. If the rider is elected at contract issue, the rider effective date is the same as the contract date. If the

</R>

Opportunities

J1


<R>

rider is added after contract issue, the rider effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once 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 the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs when 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 the Annual Ratchet once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins. Before January 12, 2009, we reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING LifePay Plus rider upon a Quarterly Ratchet once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins. You will never pay more than new issues of this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. We promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. For more information about how this rider works, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider.”

</R>

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you: a) cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period; b) surrender the Contract; c) begin the income phase and start receiving annuity payments; or d) otherwise terminate the Contract pursuant to its terms. These events automatically cancel the ING LifePay Plus rider.

<R>

Termination. The ING LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you: Terminate your Contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender your Contract, or begin receiving income phase payments in lieu of payments under the ING LifePay Plus rider; or Die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract. The ING LifePay Plus rider also terminates with a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation on your death). Other circumstances that may cause the ING LifePay Plus rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

     Highlights. This paragraph introduces the terminology of the ING LifePay Plus rider and how its components generally work together. Benefits and guarantees are subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the ING LifePay Plus rider. More detailed information follows below, with the capitalized words that are underlined indicating headings for ease of reference. The ING LifePay Plus rider guarantees an amount available for withdrawal from the Contract in any contract year once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins – we use the ING LifePay Plus Base as part of the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The guarantee continues when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, at which time we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (since Contract value would be zero) until the annuitant’s death. The ING LifePay Plus Base is eligible for Annual Ratchets and 6% Compounding Step-Ups (Quarterly Ratchets and 7% Compounding Step-Ups if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009), and subject to adjustment for any Excess Withdrawals. The ING LifePay Plus rider has an allowance for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that would otherwise be Excess Withdrawals. The ING LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING LifePay Plus rider allows for spousal continuation.

</R>

     ING LifePay Plus Base. The ING LifePay Plus Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider: On the Contract date – equal to the initial premium; or After the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the effective date of the rider.

The ING LifePay Plus Base is increased, dollar for dollar, by any subsequent premiums. We refer to the ING LifePay Plus Base as the MGWB Base in the ING LifePay Plus rider.

Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including for payment of third-party investment advisory fees, have no impact on the ING LifePay Plus Base. These withdrawals will not incur surrender charges or a negative Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations.

Say for example the current Contract value is $90,000 on a Contract with the ING LifePay Plus rider in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The ING LifePay Plus Base is $100,000, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. Even though a withdrawal of $5,000 would reduce the Contract value to $85,000, the ING LifePay Plus Base would remain at its current level (as would the Maximum Annual Withdrawal as well) since the withdrawal did not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. See below for more information about the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

<R>

An Excess Withdrawal is a withdrawal either before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins (except for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), or once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, any portion of a withdrawal during a contract year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. An Excess Withdrawal is also a withdrawal after spousal continuation of the Contract but before the ING LifePay Plus rider’s guarantees resume, which occurs on the next quarterly contract anniversary following spousal continuation. An Excess Withdrawal will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base – in the same proportion as Contract value is reduced by the portion of the withdrawal that is considered excess, inclusive of surrender charges, or Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations (rather than the total amount of the withdrawal). An Excess Withdrawal will also cause the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Illustrations 1, 2 and 6 at the end of this appendix for examples of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal.

</R>

Please note that any withdrawals before the rider effective date in the same contract year when the ING LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

<R>

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

If this rider was purchased 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). 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 the Annual Ratchet. You will never pay more than new issues of the ING LifePay Plus rider, subject to the maximum annual charge, and we promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. 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, 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 Percentages is below under “Maximum Annual Withdrawal.” Our written notice will also remind you of the consequences of canceling the forthcoming Annual Ratchet.

If this rider was purchased 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 annual 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.

</R>

<R>

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 you took no withdrawals during the preceding contract year – to equal the greatest of: the current ING LifePay Plus Base; the current Contract value; and The ING 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.

If this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009, the step-up is 7%, which we call a 7% Compounding Step-Up.

Please note that there are no partial 6% Compounding Step-Ups. The 6% Compounding Step-Up is not prorated. So for existing Contracts to which this rider is attached (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.

If this rider was purchased 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.

</R>

Say for example that with a Contract purchased on January 1, 2007, the contract owner decides to add the ING LifePay Plus rider on March 15, 2007. The rider effective date is April 1, 2007, which is the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. Because on January 1, 2008 a full contract year will not have elapsed since the rider effective date, the ING LifePay Plus Base will not be eligible for a step-up. Rather, the first opportunity for a step-up with this Contract is on January 1, 2009.

     Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of your first withdrawal (except those for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), SO LONG AS the annuitant is age 59 ½. On this date, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of the current ING LifePay Plus Base or the current Contract value. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase will continue until the earliest of:

1)      the date annuity payments begin (see “The Annuity Options”);
2)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by an Excess Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
4)      surrender of the Contract; or
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

The ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status in the event Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” below for more information.

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 applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the Annuitant’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base.

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:

<R>
  Ages 
4%  59½ to 64 
5%  65-75 
6%  76-79 
7%  80+ 

</R>

Opportunities

J4


<R>

If this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:

</R>
  Ages 
5%  59 ½ to 69 
6%  70 to 79 
7%  80+ 

<R>

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is thereafter recalculated whenever the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated, for example, upon the Annual Ratchet or 6% Compounding Step-Up (Quarterly Ratchet or 7% Compounding Step-Up if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009). Also, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage can increase with the Annual Ratchet as the annuitant grows older.

</R>

In the event on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins the Contract value is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base, then before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated, the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to the Contract value. The greater the ING LifePay Plus Base, the greater the amount guaranteed to be available to you for withdrawals under the ING LifePay Plus rider in calculating the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the first time. Also, if the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while the ING LifePay Plus rider is in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, then you may elect a life only annuity option, in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options, under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. For more information about the Contract’s annuity options, see “The Annuity Options.”

<R>

Required Minimum Distributions. The ING LifePay Plus rider allows for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal without causing a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and recalculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, then an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Once you have taken the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year, the dollar amount of any additional withdrawals will count first against and reduce any unused Additional Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount for the current calendar year – without constituting an Excess Withdrawal. See Illustration 3 at the end of this appendix for an example.

Withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and all available Additional Withdrawal Amounts are Excess Withdrawals that will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Illustration 5 at the end of this appendix for an example of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal with an Additional Withdrawal Amount. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is available on a calendar year basis and recalculated every January, reset to equal that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date. Any unused amount of the Additional Withdrawal Amount carries over into the next calendar year and is available through the end of that year, at which time any amount remaining will expire. See Illustration 4 at the end of this appendix for an example of the Additional Withdrawal Amount being carried over. Please note that there is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount for Annual Ratchets (Quarterly Ratchets if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009) or upon spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus Rider.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status when your Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. (A withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal that causes your Contract value to be reduced to zero will terminate the ING LifePay Plus rider.) You will no longer be entitled to make withdrawals, but instead will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status: the Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under the ING LifePay Plus rider; no further premium payments will be accepted; and any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

</R>

Opportunities

J5


During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the annuitant at which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the annuitant’s death.

If when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status your net withdrawals to date are less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you the difference immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the first Contract anniversary following the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

<R>

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 59 ½. During this time, the ING LifePay Plus rider’s death benefit remains payable upon the annuitant’s death. Also, the ING LifePay Plus Base remains eligible for the 6% Compounding Step-Ups Ups (7% Compounding Step-Ups if this rider was purchased 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 applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the annuitant’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base.

</R>

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Under a systematic withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made annually, then the payments will be made on each following contract anniversary.

<R>

     Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING LifePay Plus 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:

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

</R> <R>

     See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below. 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 ING LifePay Plus 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.

You may allocate your contract value to one or more Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.

</R>

Other Funds. All portfolios available under the Contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

<R>

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 the specified percentage of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. The specified percentage depends on the rider’s purchase date. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on each Contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

</R>
1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you;
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.” You will be notified that Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred, along with your new allocations, by a confirmation statement that will be mailed to you after Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred.

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in it. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

     Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charges pro-rated) on the date of death of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner), or the annuitant if there is a non-natural owner. Also, an ING LifePay Plus rider that is in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status terminates on the date of the annuitant’s death.

ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base. The ING LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider: On the Contract date – equal to the initial premium; Or after the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the rider effective date.

The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is increased by the dollar amount of any subsequent premiums and subject to any withdrawal adjustments. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is reduced by the dollar amount of any withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, and for any withdrawals once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins that are not Excess Withdrawals, including withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is subject to a pro-rata reduction for an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “ING LifePay Plus Base – Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals” above for more information.

<R>

There is no additional charge for the death benefit associated with the ING LifePay Plus rider. Please note that the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is not eligible to participate in Quarterly Ratchets or 7% Compounding Step-Ups (Quarterly Ratchets and 7% Compounding Step-Ups if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009).

</R>

In the event the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than zero when the ING LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, each periodic payment reduces the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base dollar for dollar until the earlier date of the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base being reduced to zero or the annuitant’s death. Upon the annuitant’s death, any remaining ING LifePay Plus death benefit is payable to the beneficiary in a lump sum.

<R>

Spousal Continuation. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue , provided the spouse becomes the annuitant and sole owner. At the time the Contract is continued, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the Contract value, inclusive of the guaranteed death benefit – UNLESS the continuing spouse is a joint owner and the original annuitant, OR the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has not yet begun. In this case, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of: The Contract value, inclusive of the guaranteed death benefit; and The last calculated ING LifePay Plus Base, subject to pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation. Regardless, the ING LifePay Plus rider’s guarantees resume on the next quarterly contract anniversary following spousal continuation. Any withdrawals after spousal continuation of the Contract but before the ING LifePay Plus rider’s guarantees resume are Excess Withdrawals. The ING LifePay Plus rider remains eligible for the Annual Ratchet upon recalculation of the ING LifePay Plus Base (Quarterly Ratchets if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009).

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is also recalculated at the same time as the ING LifePay Plus Base; however, there is no Maximum Annual Withdrawal upon spousal continuation until the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of the first withdrawal after spousal continuation, SO LONG AS the annuitant is age 59½. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated to equal the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the new annuitant’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base. There is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount upon spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus rider for a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code. Any withdrawals before the owner’s death and spousal continuation are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

</R>

Please note, if the Contract value is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to the Contract value before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated. Also, upon spousal continuation, the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base equals the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base before the owner’s death, subject to any pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation of the rider.

Contrary to the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus rider would likely NOT take effect at the same time as the Contract is continued. As noted above, the ING LifePay Plus rider provides for spousal continuation only on a quarterly contract anniversary (subject to the spouse becoming the annuitant and sole owner). So if you are concerned about the availability of benefits being interrupted with spousal continuation of the ING LifePay Plus rider, you might instead want to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

<R>

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charge pro-rated) upon any ownership change or change of annuitant, except for:

</R>
1)      spousal continuation as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual;
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;

6)      change in trust as owner where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual;
7)      change of owner from an individual to a trust where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual;
8)      change of owner from a trust to an individual where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual; and
9)      change of owner pursuant to a court order.
<R>

     Surrender Charges. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, your withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (and any applicable Additional Withdrawal Amount) are not subject to surrender charges. We waive any surrender charges otherwise applicable to your withdrawal in a contract year that is less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Excess Withdrawals are subject to surrender charges, whether or not the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has begun. Once your Contract value is reduced to zero, any periodic payments under the ING LifePay Plus rider would not be subject to surrender charges. Moreover, with no contract value, none of your contract level recurring charges (e.g., the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge) would be deducted.

Loans. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the ING LifePay Plus rider.

ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of both you and your spouse, even if these withdrawals reduce your Contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are married and concerned that you and your spouse may outlive your income.

<R>

     Eligibility. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is only available for purchase by individuals who are married at the time of purchase (spouses) and eligible to elect spousal continuation (as defined by the Tax Code) of the Contract when the death benefit becomes payable, subject to the owner, annuitant and beneficiary requirements below. The maximum issue age is 80. Both spouses must meet the issue age requirement. The issue age is the age of each owner on the rider effective date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is subject to broker/dealer availability. Please note that the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will not be issued unless the required owner, annuitant and beneficiary designations are met, and until your contract value is allocated in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below.

</R>

Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 are eligible for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, subject to the conditions, requirements and limitations of the prior paragraph. Such Contracts must not already have a living benefit rider. Or if your Contract already has the ING Joint LifePay or ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, then you may be eligible to elect this version of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider for a limited time. There is an election form for this purpose. Please contact the Customer Service Center for more information.

Owner, Annuitant and Beneficiary Designations. For nonqualified contracts: Joint owners must be spouses, and one of the owners the annuitant; and For a Contract with only one owner, the owner’s spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary. For qualified contracts, there may only be one owner who must also be the annuitant, and then the owner’s spouse must also be the sole primary beneficiary. Non-natural, custodial owners are only

Opportunities

J10


allowed with IRAs. Owner and beneficiary designations for custodial IRAs must be the same as for any other qualified contract. The annuitant must be the beneficial owner of the custodial IRA. We require the custodian to provide us the name and date of birth of both the owner and owner’s spouse. We do not maintain individual owner and beneficiary designations for custodial IRAs. In no event are joint annuitants allowed. We reserve the right to verify the date of birth and social security number of both spouses.

Rider Effective Date. The rider effective date is the date that coverage under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider begins. If you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider when the Contract is issued, the rider effective date is also the Contract date. If the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue, the rider effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once each quarter of a contract year from the contract date.

Active Spouse. An Active Spouse is the person (people) upon whose life and age the guarantees are calculated under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. There must be two Active Spouses when you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, who are married to each other and either are joint owners, or for a Contract with only one owner, the spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary. You cannot add an Active Spouse after the rider effective date. In general, changes in ownership of the Contract, the annuitant and/or beneficiary would result in one spouse being deactivated (the spouse is thereafter inactive). An inactive spouse is not eligible to exercise any rights or receive any benefits under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, including continuing the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider upon spousal continuation of the Contract. Once an Active Spouse is deactivated, the spouse may not become an Active Spouse again. Specific situations that would result in a spouse being deactivated include:

for nonqualified contracts where the spouses are joint owners, the removal of a joint owner (if that spouse does not automatically become sole primary beneficiary pursuant to the terms of the Contract), or the change of one joint owner to a person other than an Active Spouse; for nonqualified contracts where one spouse is the owner and the other spouse is the sole primary beneficiary, as well as for IRA contracts (including custodial IRAs), the addition of a joint owner who is not also an Active Spouse or any change of beneficiary (including the addition of primary beneficiaries); or the spouse’s death.

An owner may also request that a spouse be deactivated. Both owners must agree when there are joint owners.

However, all charges for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider would continue to apply, even after a spouse is deactivated, regardless of the reason. So please be sure to understand the impact of any beneficiary or owner changes on the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider before requesting any changes. Also, please note that a divorce terminates the ability of an ex-spouse to continue the Contract. See “Divorce” below for more information.

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

<R>
Maximum Annual Charge  Current Annual Charge 
1.50%  1.05% 

</R> <R>

This quarterly charge is a percentage of the ING LifePay Plus Base. The current annual charge is 0.95% if this rider was purchased before 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 following the rider effective 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 effective date will be the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. A quarterly contract anniversary occurs once 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 the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs when your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions are met. We reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider upon the Annual Ratchet once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins.

</R>

J11


<R>

Before January 12, 2009, we reserve the right to increase the charge for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider upon a Quarterly Ratchet once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins. You will never pay more than new issues of this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. We promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. For more information about how this rider works, please see “Living Benefit Riders – ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider.”

</R>

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you: a) cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period; b) surrender the Contract; c) begin the income phase and start receiving annuity payments; or d) otherwise terminate the Contract pursuant to its terms. These events automatically cancel the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

Termination. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you and your spouse while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you: Terminate your Contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender your Contract, or begin receiving income phase payments in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider; or Die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract (and your spouse is an Active Spouse). The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider also terminates with a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation on your death by an Active Spouse). Other circumstances that may cause the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

<R>

     Highlights. This paragraph introduces the terminology of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and how its components generally work together. Benefits and guarantees are subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. More detailed information follows below, with the capitalized words that are underlined indicating headings for ease of reference. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider guarantees an amount available for withdrawal from the Contract in any contract year once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins – we use the ING LifePay Plus Base as part of the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The guarantee continues when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, at which time we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (since Contract value would be zero) until the last Active Spouse’s death. The ING LifePay Plus Base is eligible for Annual Ratchets and 6% Compounding Step-Ups (Quarterly Ratchets and 7% Compounding Step-Ups if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009), and subject to adjustment for any Excess Withdrawals. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has an allowance for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that would otherwise be Excess Withdrawals. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider allows for spousal continuation.

</R>

     ING LifePay Plus Base. The ING LifePay Plus Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider: On the Contract date – equal to the initial premium; or After the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the effective date of the rider.

The ING LifePay Plus Base is increased, dollar for dollar, by any subsequent premiums. We refer to the ING LifePay Plus Base as the MGWB Base in the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including for payment of third-party investment advisory fees, have no impact on the ING LifePay Plus Base. These withdrawals will not incur surrender charges or a negative Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations.

Opportunities

J12


Say for example the current Contract value is $90,000 on a Contract with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The ING LifePay Plus Base is $100,000, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. Even though a withdrawal of $5,000 would reduce the Contract value to $85,000, the ING LifePay Plus Base would remain at its current level (as would the Maximum Annual Withdrawal as well) since the withdrawal did not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. See below for more information about the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

<R>

An Excess Withdrawal is a withdrawal either before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins (except for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), or once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, any portion of a withdrawal during a contract year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. An Excess Withdrawal will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base – in the same proportion as Contract value is reduced by the portion of the withdrawal that is considered excess, inclusive of surrender charges, or Market Value Adjustment associated with any Fixed Account Allocations (rather than the total amount of the withdrawal). An Excess Withdrawal will also cause the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Illustrations 1, 2 and 6 at the end of this appendix for examples of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal.

</R>

Please note that any withdrawals before the rider effective date in the same contract year when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is added after contract issue are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

<R>

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

If this rider was purchased 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). 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 the 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 promise not to increase the charge for your first five contract years. 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, 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 Percentages is below under “Maximum Annual Withdrawal.” Our written notice will also remind you of the consequences of canceling the forthcoming Annual Ratchet.

If this rider was purchased 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 annual 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.

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 you took no withdrawals during the preceding contract year – to equal the greatest of: the current ING LifePay Plus Base; the current Contract value; and the ING 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.

If this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009, the step-up is 7%, which we call a 7% Compounding Step-Up.

</R>

Opportunities

J13


<R>

Please note that there are no partial 6% Compounding Step-Ups. The 6% Compounding Step-Up is not prorated. So for existing Contracts to which this rider is attached (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.

If this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009, the step-up is 7%, which we call the 7% Compounding Step-Up. The 7% Compounding Step-Up is not pro-rated.

</R>

Say for example that with a Contract purchased on January 1, 2007, the contract owner decides to add the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider on March 15, 2007. The rider effective date is April 1, 2007, which is the date of the Contract’s next following quarterly contract anniversary. Because on January 1, 2008 a full contract year will not have elapsed since the rider effective date, the ING LifePay Plus Base will not be eligible for a step-up. Rather, the first opportunity for a step-up with this Contract is on January 1, 2009.

     Lifetime Withdrawal Phase. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of your first withdrawal (except those for payment of third-party investment advisory fees), SO LONG AS the youngest Active Spouse is age 59½. On this date, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of the current ING LifePay Plus Base or the current Contract value. The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase will continue until the earliest of:

1)      the date annuity payments begin (see “The Annuity Options”);
2)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by an Excess Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
4)      surrender of the Contract;
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary is an Active Spouse who elects to continue the Contract; or
6)      the last Active Spouse dies.

The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status in the event Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status” below for more information.

Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is the amount that the ING Joint 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 applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the younger Active Spouse’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base.

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:

<R>
  Ages 
4%  59½ to 64 
5%  65-75 
6%  76-79 
7%  80+ 

</R> <R>

If this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentages are:

</R>
  Ages 
4%  59 ½ to 64 
5%  65 to 69 
6%  70 to 79 
7%  80+ 

Opportunities

J14


<R>

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is thereafter recalculated whenever the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated, for example, upon the Annual Ratchet or 6% Compounding Step-Up (Quarterly Ratchet or 7% Compounding Step-Up if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009). Also, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage can increase with the Annual Ratchet as the younger Active Spouse grows older.

</R>

In the event on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins the Contract value is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base, then before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated, the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to the Contract value. The greater the ING LifePay Plus Base, the greater the amount guaranteed to be available to you for withdrawals under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider in calculating the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the first time. Also, if the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, then you may elect a life only annuity option, in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options, under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. For more information about the Contract’s annuity options, see “The Annuity Options.”

<R>

Required Minimum Distributions. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider allows for withdrawals from a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal without causing a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and recalculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, then an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Once you have taken the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year, the dollar amount of any additional withdrawals will count first against and reduce any unused Additional Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount for the current calendar year – without constituting an Excess Withdrawal. See Illustration 3 at the end of this appendix for an example.

Withdrawals that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and all available Additional Withdrawal Amounts are Excess Withdrawals that will cause a pro-rata reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal to be recalculated. See Illustration 5 at the end of this appendix for an example of the consequences of an Excess Withdrawal with an Additional Withdrawal Amount. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is available on a calendar year basis and recalculated every January, reset to equal that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date. Any unused amount of the Additional Withdrawal Amount carries over into the next calendar year and is available through the end of that year, at which time any amount remaining will expire. See Illustration 4 at the end of this appendix for an example of the Additional Withdrawal Amount being carried over. Please note that there is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount for Annual Ratchets (Quarterly Ratchets if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009) or upon spousal continuation of the ING Joint LifePay Plus Rider.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status when your Contract value is reduced to zero other than by an Excess Withdrawal. (A withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal that causes your Contract value to be reduced to zero will terminate the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.) You will no longer be entitled to make withdrawals, but instead will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status: The Contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider; No further premium payments will be accepted; and Any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

</R>

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the last Active Spouse at which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the last Active Spouse’s death.

Opportunities

J15


If when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status your net withdrawals to date are less than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year, then we will pay you the difference immediately. The periodic payments will begin on the first Contract anniversary following the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

<R>

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 youngest Active Spouse is age 59 ½. During this time, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider’s death benefit remains payable upon the last Active Spouse’s death. Also, the ING LifePay Plus Base remains eligible for the 6% Compounding Step-Ups (7% Compounding Step-Ups if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009). Once the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, periodic payments will begin in an annual amount equal to the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the youngest Active Spouse’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base. If an Active Spouse were to die while Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status is deferred, then when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, and the annual amount of the periodic payments, would be based on the remaining Active Spouse’s age.

</R>

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Under a systematic withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made annually, then the payments will be made on each following contract anniversary.

<R>

     Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING Joint LifePay Plus 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 depends on the rider’s purchase date:

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

</R> <R>

See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below. 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 ING Joint LifePay Plus 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.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than the specified percentage of the total Contract value allocated among the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Date, we will automatically rebalance the Contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that the specified percentage of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. The specified percentage depends on the rider’s purchase date. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis from the Other Funds to the Fixed Allocation Funds and will be the last transaction

processed on that date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on each Contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you;
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.” You will be notified that Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred, along with your new allocations, by a confirmation statement that will be mailed to you after Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing has occurred.

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in it. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

     Divorce. Generally, in the event of divorce, the spouse who retains ownership of the Contract will continue to be entitled to all rights and benefits of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, while the ex-spouse will not longer have any such rights or be entitled to any such benefits. In the event of a divorce during the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider would continue until the owner’s death (first owner in the case of joint owners, or annuitant in the case of a custodial IRA). Although spousal continuation may be available under the Tax Code for a subsequent spouse, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider cannot be continued by the new spouse. As a result of the divorce, we may be required to withdraw assets for the benefit of an ex-spouse. Any such withdrawal would be considered a withdrawal for purposes of the ING LifePay Plus Base. See “ING LifePay Plus Base – Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals” above. In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, there will be no change in the amount of your periodic payments. Payments will continue until both spouses are deceased.

     Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charges prorated) on the earlier of the date of death of the last Active Spouse, or when the surviving spouse decides not to continue the Contract.

ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has a death benefit that is payable upon the first owner’s death only when the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than the Contract’s death benefit. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is first calculated when you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider: On the Contract date – equal to the initial premium; Or after the Contract date – equal to the Contract value on the rider effective date.

The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is increased by the dollar amount of any subsequent premiums and subject to any withdrawal adjustments. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is reduced by the dollar amount of any withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees before the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, and for any withdrawals once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins that are not Excess Withdrawals, including withdrawals for payment of third-party investment advisory fees. The ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is subject to a pro-rata reduction for an Excess Withdrawal. Please see “ING LifePay Plus Base – Withdrawals and Excess Withdrawals” above for more information.

<R>

There is no additional charge for the death benefit associated with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. Please note that the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is not eligible to participate in Quarterly Ratchets or 7% Compounding Step-Ups (Quarterly Ratchets and 7% Compounding Step-Ups if this rider was purchased before January 12, 2009).

</R>

J18


In the event the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base is greater than zero when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, each periodic payment reduces the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base dollar for dollar until the earlier date of the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base being reduced to zero or the last Active Spouse’s death. Upon the last Active Spouse’s death, any remaining ING LifePay Plus death benefit is payable to the beneficiary in a lump sum.

<R>

Spousal Continuation. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue, SO LONG AS the surviving spouse in an Active Spouse. At that time, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated to equal the greater of: the Contract value, inclusive of the guaranteed death benefit; and the last calculated ING LifePay Plus Base, subject to pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation.

</R>

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is also recalculated; however, there is no Maximum Annual Withdrawal upon spousal continuation until the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins on the date of the first withdrawal after spousal continuation, SO LONG AS the last Active Spouse is age 59 ½. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated to equal the applicable Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage, based on the last Active Spouse’s age, multiplied by the ING LifePay Plus Base. There is no adjustment to the Additional Withdrawal Amount upon spousal continuation of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider for a Contract subject to the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code. Any withdrawals before the owner’s death and spousal continuation are counted in summing up your withdrawals in that contract year to determine whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded.

Please note, if the Contract value is greater than the ING LifePay Plus Base on the date the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will be set equal to the Contract value before the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is first calculated. Also, upon spousal continuation, the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base equals the ING LifePay Plus Death Benefit Base before the owner’s death, subject to any pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawals before spousal continuation of the rider.

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider terminates (with the rider’s charge prorated) upon an ownership change or change of annuitant, except for:

1)      spousal continuation as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual (owner’s spouse must be named sole primary beneficiary to remain an Active Spouse);
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      for nonqualified contracts only, the addition of a joint owner, provided the added joint owner is the original owner’s spouse and is an Active Spouse when added as a joint owner;
7)      for nonqualified contracts only, the removal of a joint owner, provided the removed joint owner is an Active Spouse and becomes the sole primary beneficiary; and
8)      change of owner where the owner becomes the sole primary beneficiary and the sole primary beneficiary becomes the owner, provided both spouses are Active Spouses at the time of the change.
<R>

     Surrender Charges. Once the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins, your withdrawals within a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (and any applicable Additional Withdrawal Amount) are not subject to surrender charges. We waive any surrender charges otherwise applicable to your withdrawal in a contract year that is less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Excess Withdrawals are subject to surrender charges, whether or not the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase has begun. Once your Contract value is reduced to zero, any periodic payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider would not be subject to surrender charges. Moreover, with no contract value, none of your contract level recurring charges (e.g., the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge) would be deducted.

Loans. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

Important Note: The information immediately below pertains to the form of the ING LifePay Plus rider available for sale on and after August 20, 2007 through April 28, 2008 in states where approved.

</R>

ING LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay Plus”) Rider. The ING LifePay Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of the annuitant, even if these withdrawals deplete your Contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are concerned that you may outlive your income.

     Purchase. In order to elect the ING LifePay Plus rider, the annuitant must be the owner or one of the owners, unless the owner is a non-natural owner. Joint annuitants are not allowed. The maximum issue age is 80. The issue age is the age of the owner (or the annuitant if there are joint owners or the owner is non-natural) on the Contract anniversary on which the rider is effective. Some broker-dealers may limit the availability of the rider to younger ages. The ING LifePay Plus rider is available for Contracts issued on and after August 20, 2007 (subject to availability and state approvals) that do not already have a living benefit rider. The ING LifePay Plus rider will not be issued if the initial allocation to investment options is not in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below. The Company in its discretion may allow the rider to be elected after a contract has been issued without it, subject to certain conditions. Contact the Customer Service Center for more information. Such election must be received in good order, including compliance with the investment restrictions described below. The rider will be effective as of the following quarterly Contract anniversary.

Rider Date. The rider date is the date the ING LifePay Plus rider becomes effective. If you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider when the Contract is issued, the rider date is also the Contract date.

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

Maximum Annual Charge  Current Annual Charge 
2.00%  0.60% 

This quarterly charge is a percentage of the ING LifePay Plus Base. 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 added after contract issue, the rider and charges will begin on the next following quarterly contract anniversary. The charge will be pro-rated when the rider is terminated. Charges are deducted through the date your rider enters either the Automatic Periodic Benefit Status or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Automatic Periodic Benefit Status or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs if your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions are met. The current charge can change upon a reset after your first five contract years. You will never pay more than the maximum annual charge.

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C. We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. If changed, the new charge will only apply to riders issued after the change.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period, surrender, annuitize or otherwise terminate the Contract. These events automatically cancel the ING LifePay Plus rider.

Termination. The ING LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you:

1)      annuitize, surrender or otherwise terminate your Contract during the accumulation phase; or
2)      die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

The ING LifePay Plus rider will also terminate if there is a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation on your death). Other circumstances that may cause the ING LifePay Plus rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

<R>

     Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date of the first withdrawal, ONLY IF the quarterly contract anniversary following the annuitant reaching age 59 ½ has not yet passed. While the ING LifePay Plus rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, withdrawals in a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will reduce the ING LifePay Plus Base dollar-for-dollar. This status will then continue until the earliest of:

</R> <R>
1)      quarterly contract anniversary following the annuitant reaching age 59 ½, provided the contract owner does not decline the change to Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status;
2)      reduction of the ING LifePay Plus Base to zero, at which time the rider will terminate;
3)      the annuity commencement date;
4)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
5)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (see “Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
6)      the surrender or annuitization of the Contract; or
7)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.
</R>

Please note that withdrawals while the ING LifePay Plus rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status are not guaranteed for the lifetime of the annuitant.

<R>

     Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date of your first withdrawal, provided the quarterly contract anniversary following the annuitant’s age 59 ½ has passed. If your first withdrawal is taken before this date, then the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status will automatically begin on the quarterly contract anniversary following the annuitant reaching age 59 ½. This status continues until the earliest of:

</R>
1)      the annuity commencement date;
2)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);

J21


4)      the surrender or annuitization of the Contract; or
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

You will receive prior notice, of not less than 30 days, if you are in the Guaranteed Withdrawal Status and become eligible for the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This notice will explain the change, its impact to you and your options. You may decline this change. Automatic reset into the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status could result in a lower Maximum Annual Withdrawal. However, this action will also apply to all future resets (see below) and cannot be reversed. As described below, certain features of the ING LifePay Plus rider may differ depending upon whether you are in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

     How the ING LifePay Plus Rider Works. The ING LifePay Plus Withdrawal Benefit rider has two phases. The first phase, called the Growth Phase, begins on the effective date of the rider and ends as of the business day before the first withdrawal is taken (or when the annuity commencement date is reached). The second phase is called the Withdrawal Phase. This phase begins as of the date of the first withdrawal or the annuity commencement date, whichever occurs first.

Benefits paid under the ING LifePay Plus rider require the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The ING LifePay Plus Base (referred to as the “MGWB Base” in the Contract) is used to determine the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and is calculated as follows:

1)      If you purchased the ING LifePay Plus rider on the Contract date, the initial ING LifePay Plus Base is equal to the initial premium.
2)      If you purchased the ING LifePay Plus rider after the Contract date, the initial ING LifePay Plus Base is equal to the Contract value on the effective date of the rider.

During the Growth Phase, the initial ING LifePay Plus Base is increased dollar-for-dollar by any premiums received, (“eligible premiums”). In addition, on each quarterly contract anniversary, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated as the greater of:

  • The current ING LifePay Plus Base; or
  • The current Contract value. This is referred to as a quarterly “ratchet.”

Also, on each of the first ten contract anniversaries, the ING LifePay Plus Base is recalculated as the greatest of:

  • The current ING LifePay Plus Base; or
  • The current Contract value; and
  • The ING LifePay Plus Base on the previous contract anniversary, increased by 7%, plus any eligible premiums and minus any third-party investment advisory fees paid from your contract during the year.
    This is referred to as an annual “step-up.”

Please note that if this rider is added after the contract date, then the first opportunity for a step-up will be on the first contract anniversary following a complete contract year after the rider date.

The ING LifePay Plus Base has no additional impact on the calculation of annuity payments or withdrawal benefits.

Currently, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are not eligible premiums for purposes of determining the ING LifePay Plus Base or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal; however, we reserve the right to treat such premiums as eligible premiums at our discretion, in a nondiscriminatory manner. Premiums received during the Withdrawal Phase do increase the Contract value used to determine the reset Maximum Annual Withdrawal under the benefit reset feature of the ING LifePay Plus rider (see “ING LifePay Plus Reset,” below). We reserve the right to discontinue allowing premium payments during the Withdrawal Phase.

J22


<R>

     Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is determined on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins. It equals a percentage of the greater of 1) the Contract value and 2) the ING LifePay Plus Base as of the last day of the Growth Phase. The first withdrawal after the effective date of the rider (which causes the end of the Growth Phase) is treated as occurring on the first day of the Withdrawal Phase, after calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage, which varies by age of the annuitant on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins, is as follows:

</R>
  Maximum Annual 
Annuitant Age  Withdrawal Percentage 
0-75*  5%* 
76-80  6% 
81+  7% 

<R>

*If the Withdrawal Phase begins before the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the annuitant reaches age 59½, withdrawals in a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will reduce the ING LifePay Plus Base dollar-for-dollar, under what we refer to as the “Standard Withdrawal Benefit.” Then, on the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the annuitant reaches age 59 ½, the ING LifePay Plus Base will automatically be reset to the current Contract value, if greater, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be recalculated.

</R>

Once determined, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage never changes for the Contract, except as provided for under spousal continuation. See “Continuation After Death – Spouse,” below. This is important to keep in mind in deciding when to take your first withdrawal because the younger you are at that time, the lower the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage.

If the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while you are in the ING LifePay Plus rider’s Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, then you may elect a life only annuity option, in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options, under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

If withdrawals in any Contract year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, then the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. This means that both the ING LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced by the same proportion as the withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (the “excess withdrawal”) is of the Contract value determined:

1)      before the withdrawal, for the excess withdrawal; and
2)      after the withdrawal, for the amount withdrawn up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (without regard to the excess withdrawal).
<R>

When a withdrawal is made, the total withdrawals taken in a Contract year are compared with the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal. To the extent that the withdrawal taken causes the total withdrawals in that year to exceed the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal, that withdrawal is considered excess. For purposes of determining whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded, any applicable Market Value Adjustment or surrender charges will not be applied to the withdrawal. However, for purposes of determining the Maximum Annual Withdrawal reduction after an excess withdrawal, any surrender charges and/or Market Value Adjustment are considered to be part of the withdrawal. See Illustrations 1 and 2 at the end of this appendix for examples of this concept.

</R>

     Required Minimum Distributions. Withdrawals taken from the Contract to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code, that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for a specific Contract year, will not be deemed excess withdrawals in that Contract year for purposes of the ING LifePay Plus rider, subject to the following rules:

Opportunities

J23


1)      If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
2)      You may withdraw the Additional Withdrawal Amount from this Contract without it being deemed an excess withdrawal.
3)      Any withdrawals taken in a Contract year will count first against the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that Contract year.
4)      Once the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year has been taken, additional amounts withdrawn in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will count first against and reduce any unused Additional Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount for the current calendar year.
5)      Withdrawals that exceed all available Additional Withdrawal Amounts are excess withdrawals and will reduce the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on a pro-rata basis, as described above.
6)      The Additional Withdrawal Amount is reset to zero at the end of the second calendar year from which it was originally calculated.
7)      If the Contract is still in the Growth Phase on the date the Additional Withdrawal Amount is determined, but enters the Withdrawal Phase later during that calendar year, the Additional Withdrawal Amount will be equal to the amount in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal necessary to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution for that year (if any).
<R>

See Illustration 3 at the end of this appendix.

</R>

     Investment Advisory Fees. Withdrawals taken pursuant to a program established by the owner for the payment of investment advisory fees to a named third party investment adviser for advice on management of the Contract’s values will not cause the Withdrawal Phase to begin. During the Growth Phase, such withdrawals reduce the ING LifePay Plus Base on a dollar-for-dollar basis, and during the Withdrawal Phase, these withdrawals are treated as any other withdrawal.

     Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the Contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal while the rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the rider will enter Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are entitled to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, until the remaining ING LifePay Plus Base is exhausted.

When the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1)      the Contract will provide no further benefits other than as provided under the ING LifePay Plus rider;
2)      no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3)      any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will continue until the ING LifePay Plus Base is reduced to zero, at which time the rider will terminate without value.

The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full Contract year following the date the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter. If, at the time the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more

J24


frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-Contract year or Contract year, as applicable.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the Contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Contract and the rider will terminate due to the pro-rata reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above.

If the Contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal while the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the rider will enter Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are entitled to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1)      the Contract will provide no further benefits other than as provided under the ING LifePay Plus rider;
2)      no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3)      any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the annuitant at which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the annuitant’s death.

The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full Contract year following the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter. If, at the time the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-Contract year or Contract year, as applicable.

     ING LifePay Plus Reset. Once the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been determined, on each quarterly contract anniversary we will increase (or “reset”) the ING LifePay Plus Base to the current Contract value, if the Contract value is higher. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal will also be recalculated, and the remaining portion of the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be available for withdrawal immediately. This reset ONLY occurs when the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, and is automatic.

We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider with a reset. In this event, you will receive prior notice, of not less than 30 days, which explains the change, its impact to you and your options. You may decline this change (and the reset). However, this action will apply to all future resets and cannot be reversed.

     Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING LifePay Plus 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 20% of such Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds. See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below.

If the rider is not continued under the spousal continuation right when available, the Fixed Allocation Fund may be reclassified as a Special Fund as of the Contract continuation date if it would otherwise be designated as a Special Fund for purposes of the Contract’s death benefits. For purposes of calculating any applicable death benefit guaranteed under the Contract, any allocation of Contract value to the Fixed Allocation Funds will be considered a Covered Fund allocation while the rider is in effect.

     Other Funds. All portfolios available under the Contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

     Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than 20% of the total Contract value allocated to 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 20% of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis among the Other Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on each Contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you;
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.”

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in them. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

     Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay Plus rider and charges will terminate on the date of death of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner), or the annuitant if there is a non-natural owner.

     Continuation After Death – Spouse. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue on the next quarterly contract anniversary, provided the spouse becomes the annuitant and sole owner.

If the rider is in the Growth Phase at the time of spousal continuation:

1)      The rider will continue in the Growth Phase;
2)      On the date the rider is continued, the ING LifePay Plus Base will be reset to equal the greater of the ING LifePay Plus Base and the then current Contract value;
3)      The ING LifePay Plus charges will restart and be the same as were in effect prior to the claim date;
4)      Ratchets, which stop on the claim date, are restarted, effective on the date the rider is continued;

<R>
5)      Any remaining step-ups will be available, and if the rider is continued before an annual contract anniversary when a step-up would have been available, then that step-up will be available;
6)      The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage will be determined as of the date of the first withdrawal, whenever it occurs, and will be based on the spouse’s age on that date; and
7)      The rider’s Standard Withdrawal Benefit will be available until the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the spouse is age 59 ½.
</R>

If the rider is in the Withdrawal Phase at the time of spousal continuation:

1)      The rider will continue in the Withdrawal Phase.
2)      The rider’s charges will restart on the date the rider is continued and be the same as were in effect prior
  to      the claim date.
3)      On the quarterly Contract anniversary that the date the rider is continued:
  (a)      If the surviving spouse was not the annuitant before the owner’s death, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will be reset to the current Contract value and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated by multiplying the new ING LifePay Plus Base by the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage based on the surviving spouse’s age on that date. Withdrawals are permitted pursuant to the other provisions of the rider. Withdrawals causing the Contract value to fall to zero will terminate the Contract and the rider.
  (b)      If the surviving spouse was the annuitant before the owner’s death, then the ING LifePay Plus Base will be reset to the current Contract value, only if greater, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated by multiplying the new ING LifePay Plus Base by the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage. Withdrawals are permitted pursuant to the other provisions of the rider.
4)      The rider charges will restart on the quarter Contract anniversary that the rider is continued and will be
  the      same as were in effect prior to the claim date.

     Effect of ING LifePay Plus Rider on Death Benefit. If you die before Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status begins under the ING LifePay Plus rider, the death benefit is payable, but the rider terminates. However, if the beneficiary is the owner’s spouse, and the spouse elects to continue the Contract, the death benefit is not payable until the spouse’s death. Thus, you should not purchase this rider with multiple owners, unless the owners are spouses. See “Death of Owner or Annuitant” and “Continuation After Death –Spouse,” above for further information.

While in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if the owner who is not the annuitant dies, we will continue to pay the periodic payments that the owner was receiving under the ING LifePay Plus rider to the beneficiary. While in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if an owner who is also the annuitant dies, the periodic payments will stop. No other death benefit is payable.

While the rider is in Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if the owner dies, the remaining ING LifePay Plus Base will be paid to the beneficiary in a lump sum.

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. Other than as provided above under “Continuation After Death- Spouse,” you may not change the annuitant. The rider and rider charges will terminate upon change of owner, including adding an additional owner, except for the following ownership changes:

  1) spousal continuation as described above;

J28


2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual;
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      change in trust as owner where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual;
7)      change of owner from an individual to a trust where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual; and
8)      change of owner from a trust to an individual where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual.

     Surrender Charges. If you elect the ING LifePay Plus rider, your withdrawals will be subject to surrender charges if they exceed the free withdrawal amount. However, once your Contract value is zero, the periodic payments under the ING LifePay Plus rider are not subject to surrender charges.

Loans. No loans are permitted on Contracts with the ING LifePay Plus rider.

     Taxation. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING LifePay Plus Rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

Important Note: The information immediately below pertains to the form of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider available for sale on and after August 20, 2007 through April 28, 2008 in states where approved.

</R>

ING Joint LifePay Plus Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay Plus”) Rider. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of both you and your spouse, even if these withdrawals deplete your contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are married and are concerned that you and your spouse may outlive your income.

     Purchase. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is only available for purchase by individuals who are married at the time of purchase and eligible to elect spousal continuation (as defined by the Tax Code) when the death benefit becomes payable. We refer to these individuals as spouses. Certain ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations are required in order to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. See “Ownership, Annuitant, and Beneficiary Requirements,” below.

The maximum issue age is 80. Both spouses must meet these issue age requirements on the contract anniversary on which the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is effective. The issue age is the age of the owners on the Contract anniversary on which the rider is effective. Some broker dealers may limit the maximum issue age to ages younger than age 80, but in no event lower than age 55. We reserve the right to change the minimum or maximum issue ages on a nondiscriminatory basis. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is available for Contracts issued on and after August 20, 2007 (subject to availability and state approvals) that do not already have a living benefit rider. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will not be issued if the initial allocation to investment options is not in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below. The Company in its discretion may allow the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider to be elected after a contract has been issued without it, subject to certain conditions. Please contact our Customer Service Center for more information. Such election must be received in good order, including owner, annuitant, and beneficiary designations and compliance with the investment restrictions described below. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will be effective as of the following quarterly contract anniversary.

J29


     Ownership, Annuitant, and Beneficiary Designation Requirements. Certain ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations are required in order to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. These designations depend upon whether the contract is issued as a nonqualified contract, an IRA or a custodial IRA. In all cases, the ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations must allow for the surviving spouse to continue the contract when the death benefit becomes payable, as provided by the Tax Code. Non-natural, custodial owners are only allowed with IRAs (“custodial IRAs”). Joint annuitants are not allowed. The necessary ownership, annuitant, and/or beneficiary designations are described below. Applications that do not meet the requirements below will be rejected. We reserve the right to verify the date of birth and social security number of both spouses.

     Nonqualified Contracts. For a jointly owned contract, the owners must be spouses, and the annuitant must be one of the owners. For a contract with only one owner, the owner’s spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary, and the annuitant must be one of the spouses.

     IRAs. There may only be one owner, who must also be the annuitant. The owner’s spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary.

     Custodial IRAs. While we do not maintain individual owner and beneficiary designations for IRAs held by an outside custodian, the ownership and beneficiary designations with the custodian must comply with the requirements listed in “IRAs,” above. The annuitant must be the same as the beneficial owner of the custodial IRA. We require the custodian to provide us the name and date of birth of both the owner and the owner’s spouse.

Rider Date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider date is the date the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider becomes effective. If you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider when the contract is issued, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider date is also the contract date.

Charge. 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 
2.50%  0.85% 

This quarterly charge is a percentage of the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base. 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 added after contract issue, the rider and charges will begin on the next following quarterly contract anniversary. The charge will be pro-rated when the rider is terminated. Charges are deducted through the date your rider enters either the Automatic Periodic Benefit Status or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Automatic Periodic Benefit Status or Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs if your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions are met. The current charge can be subject to change upon a reset after your first five contract years. You will never pay more than the maximum annual charge.

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C. We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. If changed, the new charge will only apply to riders issued after the change.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you may not cancel it unless you cancel the contract during the contract’s free look period (or otherwise cancel the contract pursuant to its terms), surrender or annuitize in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. These events automatically cancel the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

J30


Termination. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is a “living benefit,” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you and your spouse while you are living and while your contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you:

1)      terminate your contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender, or begin receiving annuity payments in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider;
2)      die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die in the case of joint owners, or death of annuitant if the contract is a custodial IRA), unless your spouse elects to continue the contract (and your spouse is active for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider); or
3)      change the owner of the contract (other than a spousal continuation by an active spouse).

See “Change of Owner or Annuitant,” below. Other circumstances that may cause the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

Active Status. Once the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has been issued, a spouse must remain in “active” status in order to exercise rights and receive the benefits of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider after the first spouse’s death by electing spousal continuation. In general, changes to the ownership, annuitant, and/or beneficiary designation requirements noted above will result in one spouse being designated as “inactive.” Inactive spouses are not eligible to continue the benefits of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider after the death of the other spouse. Once designated “inactive,” a spouse may not regain active status under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. Specific situations that will result in a spouse’s designation as “inactive” include the following:

1)      For nonqualified contracts where the spouses are joint owners, the removal of a joint owner (if that spouse does not automatically become sole primary beneficiary pursuant to the terms of the contract), or the change of one joint owner to a person other than an active spouse.
2)      For nonqualified contracts where one spouse is the owner and the other spouse is the sole primary beneficiary, as well as for IRA contracts (including custodial IRAs), the addition of a joint owner who is not also an active spouse or any change of beneficiary (including the addition of primary beneficiaries).
3)      In the event of the death of one spouse (in which case the deceased spouse becomes inactive).

An owner may also request that one spouse be treated as inactive. In the case of joint-owned contracts, both contract owners must agree to such a request. An inactive spouse is not eligible to exercise any rights or receive any benefits under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider. However, all charges for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will continue to apply, even if one spouse becomes inactive, regardless of the reason. You should make sure you understand the impact of beneficiary and owner changes on the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider prior to requesting any such changes.

A divorce will terminate the ability of an ex-spouse to continue the contract. See “Divorce,” below.

     Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date of the first withdrawal, ONLY IF the quarterly contract anniversary following the youngest active spouse’s 65th birthday has not yet passed. While the ING LifePay Plus rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, withdrawals in a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will reduce the ING LifePay Plus Base dollar-for-dollar. This status will then continue until the earliest of:

1)      quarterly contract anniversary following the youngest active spouse’s 65th birthday, provided the contract owner does not decline the change to Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status;
2)      reduction of the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base to zero, at which time the rider will terminate;
3)      the annuity commencement date;

Opportunities

J31


4)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
5)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (see “Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
6)      the surrender or annuitization of the Contract; or
7)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners; annuitant, in the case of a non-natural person owner), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

Please note that withdrawals while the ING LifePay Plus rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status are not guaranteed for the lifetime of the annuitant.

     Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date of the first withdrawal, provided the quarterly contract anniversary following the youngest active spouse’s 65th birthday has passed. If the first withdrawal is taken prior to this date, then the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status will automatically begin on the quarterly contract anniversary following the youngest active spouse’s 65th birthday. This status continues until the earliest of:

1)      the annuity commencement date;
2)      reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
4)      the surrender of the contract; or
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners, or the annuitant, in the case of a custodial IRA), unless your active spouse beneficiary elects to continue the contract.

You will receive prior notice, of not less than 30 days, if you are in the Guaranteed Withdrawal Status and become eligible for the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This notice will explain the change, its impact to you and your options. You may decline this change. Automatic reset into the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status could result in a lower Maximum Annual Withdrawal. However, this action will also apply to all future resets (see below) and cannot be reversed. As described below, certain features of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider may differ depending upon whether you are in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

     How the ING Joint LifePay Plus Rider Works. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider has two phases. The first phase, called the Growth Phase, begins on the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and ends as of the business day before the first withdrawal is taken (or when the annuity commencement date is reached). The second phase is called the Withdrawal Phase. This phase begins as of the date you take the first withdrawal of any kind under the contract (other than advisory fees, as described below), or the annuity commencement date, whichever occurs first.

Benefits paid under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider require the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base (referred to as the “MGWB Base” in the contract) is used to determine the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and is calculated as follows:

1)      If you purchased the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider on the contract date, the initial ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is equal to the initial premium.
2)      If you purchased the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider after the contract date, the initial ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is equal to the contract value on the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

Opportunities

J32


During the Growth Phase, the initial ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is increased dollar-for-dollar by any premiums received (“eligible premiums”). In addition, on each quarterly contract anniversary, the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is recalculated as the greater of:

  • The current ING Joint LifePay Plus Base; or
  • The current Contract value. This is referred to as a quarterly “ratchet.”

Also, on each of the first ten contract anniversaries, the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is recalculated as the greatest of:

  • The current ING Joint LifePay Plus Base; or
  • The current Contract value; and
  • The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base on the previous contract anniversary, increased by 7%, plus any eligible premiums and minus any third-party investment advisory fees paid from your contract during the year. This is referred to as an annual “step-up.”

Please note that if this rider is added after the contract date, then the first opportunity for a step-up will be on the first contract anniversary following a complete contract year after the rider date.

The ING Joint LifePay Plus Base has no additional impact on the calculation of annuity payments or withdrawal benefits.

Currently, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are not eligible premiums for purposes of determining the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal; however, we reserve the right to treat such premiums as eligible premiums at our discretion, in a nondiscriminatory manner. Premiums received during the Withdrawal Phase do increase the contract value used to determine the reset Maximum Annual Withdrawal under the benefit reset feature of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider (see “ING Joint LifePay Plus Reset,” below). We reserve the right to discontinue allowing premium payments during the Withdrawal Phase.

     Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is determined on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins. It equals the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the greater of the contract value and the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base, as of the last day of the Growth Phase. The first withdrawal after the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider (which causes the end of the Growth Phase) is treated as occurring on the first day of the Withdrawal Phase, immediately after calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage, which varies by age of the youngest active spouse on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins, is as follows:

Youngest Active  Maximum Annual 
Spouse’s Age  Withdrawal Percentage 
0-75*  5%* 
76-80  6% 
81+  7% 

*If the Withdrawal Phase begins before the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the younger spouse reaches age 65, withdrawals in a contract year up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will reduce the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base dollar-for-dollar, under what we refer to as the “Standard Withdrawal Benefit.” Then, on the quarterly contract anniversary on or after the younger spouse reaches age 65, the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base will automatically be reset to the current Contract value, if greater, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be recalculated.

Once determined the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage never changes for the contract. This is important to keep in mind in deciding when to take your first withdrawal because the younger you are at that time, the lower the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage.

Opportunities

J33


If the Contract’s annuity commencement date is reached while you are in the ING LifePay Plus rider’s Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, then you may elect a life only annuity option, in lieu of the Contract’s other annuity options, under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, provided that, if both spouses are active, payments under the life only annuity option will be calculated using the joint life expectancy table for both spouses. If only one spouse is active, payments will be calculated using the single life expectancy table for the active spouse.

Withdrawals in a contract year that do not exceed the Maximum Withdrawal Amount do not reduce the Maximum Withdrawal Amount. However, if withdrawals in any contract year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (an “excess withdrawal”), the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. This means that both the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced by the same proportion as the excess withdrawal is of the contract value determined after the deduction the amount withdrawn up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal but before deduction of the excess withdrawal.

<R>

When a withdrawal is made, the total withdrawals taken in a contract year are compared with the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal. To the extent that the withdrawal taken causes the total withdrawals in that year to exceed the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal, that withdrawal is considered excess. For purposes of determining whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded, any applicable Market Value Adjustment or surrender charges will not be considered. However, for purposes of determining the Maximum Annual Withdrawal reduction after an excess withdrawal, surrender charges and/or Market Value Adjustment are considered to be part of the withdrawal, and will be included in the pro-rata adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. See Illustrations 1 and 2 at the end of this appendix for examples of this concept.

</R>

     Required Minimum Distributions. Withdrawals taken from the contract to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code are considered withdrawals for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, and will begin the Withdrawal Phase if the Withdrawal Phase has not already started. Any such withdrawal which exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for a specific contract year will not be deemed excess withdrawals in that contract year for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, subject to the following:

1)      If the contract owner’s Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to the contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
2)      You may withdraw the Additional Withdrawal Amount from this contract without it being deemed an excess withdrawal.
3)      Any withdrawals taken in a contract year will count first against the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year.
4)      Once the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current contract year has been taken, additional amounts withdrawn in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will count first against and reduce any unused Additional Withdrawal Amount for the previous calendar year followed by any Additional Withdrawal Amount for the current contract year.
5)      Withdrawals that exceed all available Additional Withdrawal Amounts are excess withdrawals and will reduce the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on a pro-rata basis, as described above.
6)      The Additional Withdrawal Amount is reset to zero at the end of the second calendar year from which it was originally calculated.
7)      If the contract is still in the Growth Phase on the date the Additional Withdrawal Amount is determined, but enters the Withdrawal Phase later during that calendar year, the Additional

Withdrawal Amount will be equal to the amount in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount necessary to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution for that year (if any).

<R>

See Illustration 3 at the end of this appendix.

</R>

     Investment Advisory Fees. Withdrawals taken pursuant to a program established by the owner for the payment of investment advisory fees to a named third party investment adviser for advice on management of the contract’s values will not cause the Withdrawal Phase to begin. During the Growth Phase, such withdrawals reduce the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base on a dollar-for-dollar basis, and during the Withdrawal Phase, these withdrawals are treated as any other withdrawal.

     Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the Contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal while the rider is in Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the rider will enter Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are entitled to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, until the remaining ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is exhausted.

When the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1)      the Contract will provide no further benefits other than as provided under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider;
2)      no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3)      any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will continue until the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base is reduced to zero, at which time the rider will terminate without value.

The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full Contract year following the date the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter. If, at the time the rider enters Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-Contract year or Contract year, as applicable.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the contract and the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will terminate due to the pro-rata reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above.

If the contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal while the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will enter Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are no longer entitled to make withdrawals. Instead, under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider you will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

When the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1)      the contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider;
2)      no further premium payments will be accepted; and

Opportunities

J35


3) any other riders attached to the contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The time period for which we will make these payments will depend upon whether one or two spouses are active under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider at the time this status begins. If both spouses are active under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, these payments will cease upon the death of the second spouse, at which time both the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and the contract will terminate without further value. If only one spouse is active under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, the payments will cease upon the death of the active spouse, at which time both the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and the contract will terminate without value.

If the Maximum Annual Withdrawal exceeds the net withdrawals taken the contract year when the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status (including the withdrawal that results in the contract value decreasing to zero), that difference will be paid immediately to the contract owner. The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full contract year following the date the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the contract. Under a systematic withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-contract year or contract year, as applicable.

     ING Joint LifePay Plus Reset. Once the Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status begins and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been determined, on each quarterly contract anniversary we will increase (or “reset”) the ING Joint LifePay Plus Base to the current Contract value, if the Contract value is higher. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal will also be recalculated, and the remaining portion of the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be available for withdrawal immediately. This reset ONLY occurs when the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, and is automatic.

We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider with a reset. In this event, you will receive prior notice, of not less than 30 days, which explains the change, its impact to you and your options. You may decline this change (and the reset). However, this action will apply to all future resets and cannot be reversed.

     Investment Option Restrictions. In order to mitigate the insurance risk inherent in our guarantee to provide you and your spouse with lifetime payments (subject to the terms and restrictions of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider), we require that your contract value be allocated in accordance with certain limitations. In general, to the extent that you choose not to invest in the Accepted Funds, we require that 20% of the amount not so invested be invested in the Fixed Allocation Funds. We will require this allocation regardless of your investment instructions to the contract, as described below.

<R>

While the ING Joint LifePay Plus 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 20% of such contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds. See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below.

     Other Funds. All portfolios available under the contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

     Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than 20% of the total contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Date, we will automatically rebalance the contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that 20% of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis among the Other Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING Joint LifePay Plus Rebalancing Dates occur on each contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

1)      receipt of additional premiums;
2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you; and
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.”

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in them. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider if you do not wish to have your contract value reallocated in this manner.

     Divorce. Generally, in the event of a divorce, the spouse who retains ownership of the contract will continue to be entitled to all rights and benefits of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, while the ex-spouse will no longer have any such rights or be entitled to any such benefits. In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider continues, and terminates upon the death of the owner (first owner in the case of joint owners, or the annuitant in the case of a custodial IRA). Although spousal continuation may be available under the Tax Code for a subsequent spouse, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider cannot be continued by the new spouse. As the result of the divorce, we may be required to withdraw assets for the benefit of an ex-spouse. Any such withdrawal will be considered a withdrawal for purposes of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount. In other words, if a withdrawal incident to a divorce exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount, it will be considered an excess withdrawal. See “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above. As noted, in the event of a divorce there is no change to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and we will continue to deduct charges for the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider.

In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, there will be no change to the periodic payments made. Payments will continue until both spouses are deceased.

     Death of Owner. The death of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner, or for custodial IRAs, the annuitant) may cause the termination of the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and its charges, depending upon whether one or both spouses are in active status at the time of death, as described below.

1)      If both spouses are in active status: If the surviving spouse elects to continue the contract and becomes the sole owner and annuitant, the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider will remain in effect pursuant to its original terms and ING Joint LifePay Plus coverage and charges will continue. As of the date the contract is continued, the Joint LifePay Plus Base will be reset to the current Contact value, if greater,

Opportunities

J38


  and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will recalculated as the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the new Joint LifePay Plus Base on the date the contract is continued. However, under no circumstances will this recalculation result in a reduction to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
  If the surviving spouse elects not to continue the contract, ING Joint LifePay Plus rider coverage and charges will cease upon the earlier of payment of the death benefit or notice that an alternative distribution option has been chosen.
2)      If the surviving spouse is in inactive status: The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider terminates and ING Joint LifePay Plus coverage and charges cease upon the date of death of the last Active Spouse.

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. Other than as a result of spousal continuation, you may not change the annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay Plus rider and rider charges will terminate upon change of owner, including adding an additional owner, except for the following ownership changes:

1)      spousal continuation by an active spouse, as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual (in order to avoid the owner’s spouse from being designated inactive, the owner’s spouse must be named sole beneficiary under the contract);
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      for nonqualified contracts only, the addition of a joint owner, provided that the additional joint owner is the original owner’s spouse and is active when added as joint owner;
7)      for nonqualified contracts, removal of a joint owner, provided the removed joint owner is active and becomes the primary contract beneficiary; and
8)      change of owner where the owner becomes the sole primary beneficiary and the sole primary beneficiary becomes the owner if both were active spouses at the time of the change.

     Surrender Charges. If you elect the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, your withdrawals will be subject to surrender charges if they exceed the free withdrawal amount. However, once your contract value is zero, the periodic payments under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider are not subject to surrender charges, nor will these amounts be subject to any other charges under the contract.

Federal Tax Considerations. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING Joint LifePay Plus rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

ING LifePay Plus and ING Joint LifePay Plus Partial Withdrawal Amount Examples. The following are examples of adjustments to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal:

Illustration 1: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including surrender and/or MVA charges.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

Opportunities

J39


The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $500 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $300 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $200 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, then there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $7,000 ($3,000 + $500 + $1,500 + $300 + $1,500 + $200). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal ($7,000 - $5,000 = $2,000), and the amount of the current gross withdrawal ($1,500 + 200 = $1,700.

If the Account Value before this withdrawal is $50,000, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 3.40% ($1,700 / $50,000) to $4,830 ((1 - 3.40%) * $5,000).

Illustration 2: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000, and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $1,500.

If the Account Value after the part of the gross withdrawal that was within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $500, is $49,500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 2.02% ($1,000 / $49,500) to $4,899 ((1 - 2.02%) * $5,000).

Illustration 3: A withdrawal exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount but does not exceed the Additional Withdrawal Amount.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. The Required Minimum Distribution for the current calendar year applicable to this contract is determined to be $6,000. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of this amount above the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000).

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

Opportunities

J40


The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. Total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, however, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not adjusted until the Additional Withdrawal Amount is exhausted. The amount by which total net withdrawals taken exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000), is the same as the Additional Withdrawal Amount, so no adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is made. If total net withdrawals taken had exceeded the sum of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional Withdrawal Amount, then an adjustment would be made to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Illustration 4: The Reset Occurs.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000 and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage is 5%.

One year after the first withdrawal is taken, the contract value has increased to $120,000, and the Reset occurs. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is now $6,000 ($120,000 * 5%).

One year after the Reset, the contract value has increased further to $130,000. The Reset occurs again, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is now $6,500 ($130,000 * 5%).

  APPENDIX K

ING LifePay and ING Joint LifePay

(Available for Contracts issued through August 20, 2007, subject to state approval.)

ING LifePay Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING LifePay”) Rider. The ING LifePay rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of the annuitant, even if these withdrawals deplete your Contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are concerned that you may outlive your income.

     Purchase. In order to elect the ING LifePay rider, the annuitant must be the owner or one of the owners, unless the owner is a non-natural owner. Joint annuitants are not allowed. The minimum issue age is 50 and the maximum issue age is 80. The issue age is the age of the owner (or the annuitant if there are joint owners or the owner is non-natural) on the Contract anniversary on which the rider is effective. But some broker-dealers may limit the availability of the rider to younger ages. The ING LifePay rider is available for Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 (subject to availability) that do not already have a living benefit rider. The ING LifePay rider will not be issued if the initial allocation to investment options is not in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below. The Company in its discretion may allow the rider to be elected during the 30-day period preceding a Contract anniversary. Such election must be received in good order, including compliance with the investment restrictions described below. The rider will be effective as of that Contract anniversary.

Rider Date. The rider date is the date the ING LifePay rider becomes effective. If you purchase the ING LifePay rider when the Contract is issued, the rider date is also the Contract date.

Charge. The charge for the ING LifePay rider, a living benefit, is deducted quarterly and is a percentage of contract value:

Maximum Annual Charge  Current Annual Charge 
1.20%  0.50% 

We deduct the quarterly 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 added after contract issue, the charges will still be deducted on quarterly contract anniversaries, but the first charge will be pro-rated based on what is owed at the time the rider is added through the contract quarter end. Similarly, the charge is pro-rated based on what is owed at the time the rider is terminated. Charges are deducted during the period starting on the rider date and up to your rider’s Lifetime’ Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs if your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions are met. The charge may be subject to change if you elect the reset option after your first five contract years, but subject to the maximum annual charge.

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C. We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. If changed, the new charge will only apply to riders issued after the change.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING LifePay rider, you may not cancel it unless you cancel the Contract during the Contract’s free look period, surrender, annuitize or otherwise terminate the Contract. These events automatically cancel the ING LifePay rider.

Termination. The ING LifePay rider is a “living benefit” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you:

1)      annuitize, surrender or otherwise terminate your Contract during the accumulation phase; or
2)      die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die if there are multiple Contract owners, or death of annuitant if Contract owner is not a natural person), unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

The ING LifePay rider will also terminate if there is a change in Contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation on your death). Other circumstances that may cause the ING LifePay rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

     Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date the rider is issued (the “effective date of the rider”) and continues until the earliest of:

1)      the annuity commencement date;
2)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
3)      reduction of the Contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
4)      the surrender or annuitization of the Contract; or
5)      the death of the owner, or first owner, in the case of joint owners, unless your spouse beneficiary elects to continue the Contract.

As described below, certain features of the ING LifePay rider may differ depending upon whether you are in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

     How the ING LifePay Rider Works. The ING LifePay Withdrawal Benefit rider has two phases. The first phase, called the Growth Phase, begins on the effective date of the rider and ends as of the business day before the first withdrawal is taken (or when the annuity commencement date is reached). The second phase is called the Withdrawal Phase. This phase begins as of the date of the first withdrawal or the annuity commencement date, whichever occurs first.

Benefits paid under the ING LifePay rider require the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The ING LifePay Base (referred to as the “MGWB Base” in the Contract) is used to determine the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and is calculated as follows.

1)      If you purchased the ING LifePay rider on the Contract date, the initial ING LifePay Base is equal to the initial premium.
2)      If you purchased the ING LifePay rider after the Contract date, the initial ING LifePay Base is equal to the Contract value on the effective date of the rider.

The initial ING LifePay Base is increased dollar-for-dollar by any premiums received during the Growth Phase (“eligible premiums”). The ING LifePay Base is also increased to equal the Contract value if the Contract value is greater than the current ING LifePay Base, on each Contract quarterly anniversary after the effective date of the rider and during the Growth Phase. The ING LifePay Base has no additional impact on the calculation of annuity payments or withdrawal benefits.

Opportunities

K2


Currently, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are not eligible premiums for purposes of determining the ING LifePay Base or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal; however, we reserve the right to treat such premiums as eligible premiums at our discretion, in a nondiscriminatory manner. Premiums received during the Withdrawal Phase do increase the Contract value used to determine the reset Maximum Annual Withdrawal if you choose to reset the ING LifePay rider (see “ING LifePay Reset Option,” below). We reserve the right to discontinue allowing premium payments during the Withdrawal Phase.

Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is determined on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins. It equals a percentage of the greater of 1) the Contract value and 2) the ING LifePay Base as of the last day of the Growth Phase. The first withdrawal after the effective date of the rider (which causes the end of the Growth Phase) is treated as occurring on the first day of the Withdrawal Phase, after calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage, which varies by age of the annuitant on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins, is as follows:

  Maximum Annual 
Annuitant Age  Withdrawal Percentage 
50-59  4% 
60-75  5% 
76-80  6% 
81+  7% 

Once determined, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage never changes for the Contract, except as provided for under spousal continuation. See “Continuation After Death – Spouse,” below. This is important to keep in mind in deciding when to take your first withdrawal because the younger you are at that time, the lower the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage.

If the rider is in the Growth Phase, and the annuity commencement date is reached, the rider will enter the Withdrawal Phase and will be annuitized. In lieu of the annuity options under the Contract, you may elect a life only annuity option under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

If withdrawals in any Contract year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. This means that the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced by the same proportion as the withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (the “excess withdrawal”) is of the Contract value determined:

1)      before the withdrawal, for the excess withdrawal; and
2)      after the withdrawal, for the amount withdrawn up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (without regard to the excess withdrawal).

When a withdrawal is made, the total withdrawals taken in a Contract year are compared with the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal. To the extent that the withdrawal taken causes the total withdrawals in that year to exceed the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal, that withdrawal is considered excess. For purposes of determining whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded, any applicable Market Value Adjustment or surrender charges will not be applied to the withdrawal. However, for purposes of determining the Maximum Annual Withdrawal reduction after an excess withdrawal, any surrender charges and/or Market Value Adjustment are considered to be part of the withdrawal. See Illustrations 1 and 2 below for examples of this concept.

     Required Minimum Distributions. Withdrawals taken from the Contract to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code that exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for a specific Contract year, will not be deemed excess withdrawals in that Contract year for purposes of the ING LifePay rider, subject to the following rules:

Opportunities

K3


1)      If your Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to this Contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
2)      You may withdraw the Additional Withdrawal Amount from this Contract without it being deemed an excess withdrawal.
3)      Any withdrawals taken in a Contract year will count first against the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that Contract year.
4)      Once the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current Contract year has been taken, additional amounts withdrawn in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will count against and reduce any Additional Withdrawal Amount.
5)      Withdrawals that exceed the Additional Withdrawal Amount are excess withdrawals and will reduce the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on a pro-rata basis, as described above.
6)      The Additional Withdrawal Amount is reset to zero at the end of each calendar year, and remains at zero until it is reset in January of the following calendar year, even if, pursuant to the Tax Code, the contract owner may take a Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year after the end of the calendar year.
7)      If the Contract is still in the Growth Phase on the date the Additional Withdrawal Amount is determined, but enters the Withdrawal Phase later during that calendar year, the Additional Withdrawal Amount will be equal to the amount in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal necessary to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution for that year (if any).

See Illustration 3 below.

     Investment Advisory Fees. Withdrawals taken pursuant to a program established by the owner for the payment of investment advisory fees to a named third party investment adviser for advice on management of the Contract’s values will not cause the Withdrawal Phase to begin. During the Growth Phase, such withdrawals reduce the ING LifePay Base on a pro-rata basis, and during the Withdrawal Phase, these withdrawals are treated as any other withdrawal.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the Contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the Contract and the rider will terminate due to the pro-rata reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above.

If the Contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal while the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the rider will enter Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are entitled to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

When the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1)      the Contract will provide no further benefits other than as provided under the ING LifePay rider;
2)      no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3)      any other riders attached to the Contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

Opportunities

K4


During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. These payments will cease upon the death of the annuitant at which time both the rider and the Contract will terminate. The rider will remain in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status until it terminates without value upon the annuitant’s death.

The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full Contract year following the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter. If, at the time the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the Contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each Contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-Contract year or Contract year, as applicable.

     ING LifePay Reset Option. Beginning one year after the Withdrawal Phase begins, you may choose to reset the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, if the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage of the Contract value would be greater than your current Maximum Annual Withdrawal. You must elect to reset by a request in a form satisfactory to us. On the date the request is received (the “Reset Effective Date”), the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will increase to be equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Percentage of the Contract value on the Reset Effective Date. The reset option is only available when the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

After exercising the reset option, you must wait one year before electing to reset again. We will not accept a request to reset if the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal on the date the request is received would be less than your current Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

<R>

If the reset option is exercised, the charge for the ING LifePay rider will be equal to the charge then in effect for a newly purchased rider but will not exceed the maximum annual charge of 1.20%. However, we guarantee that the rider charge will not increase for resets exercised within the first five contract years. See Illustration 4 below.

</R>

     Investment Option Restrictions. While the ING LifePay 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 20% of such Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds. See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below.

You may allocate contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.

</R>

If the rider is not continued under the spousal continuation right when available, the Fixed Allocation Fund will be reclassified as a Special Fund as of the Contract continuation date if it would otherwise be designated as a Special Fund for purposes of the Contract’s death benefits. For purposes of calculating any applicable death benefit guaranteed under the Contract, any allocation of Contract value to the Fixed Allocation Funds will be considered a Covered Fund allocation while the rider is in effect.

     Other Funds. All portfolios available under the Contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

     Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the Contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than 20% of the total Contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any ING LifePay Rebalancing Date, we will automatically rebalance the Contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that 20% of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis among the Other Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING LifePay Rebalancing Dates occur on each Contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

  1) receipt of additional premiums;

Opportunities

K6


2)      transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you;
3)      withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the Contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the Contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.”

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in them. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING LifePay rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING LifePay rider if you do not wish to have your Contract value reallocated in this manner.

Death of Owner or Annuitant. The ING LifePay rider and charges terminate on the earlier of:

1) if the rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal status, the date of receipt of due proof of death (“claim date”) of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner) or the annuitant if there is a non-natural owner; or

2) the date the rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit status.

     Continuation After Death – Spouse. If the surviving spouse of the deceased owner continues the Contract (see “Death Benefit Choices – Continuation After Death – Spouse”), the rider will also continue, provided the following conditions are met:

1) The spouse is at least 50 years old on the date the Contract is continued; and

2) The spouse becomes the annuitant and sole owner.

If the rider is in the Growth Phase at the time of spousal continuation:

1) The rider will continue in the Growth Phase;

2) On the date the rider is continued, the ING LifePay Base will be reset to equal the greater of the ING LifePay Base and the then current Contract value;

3) The ING LifePay charges will restart and be the same as were in effect prior to the claim date; and

4) The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage will be determined as of the date of the first withdrawal, whenever it occurs, and will be based on the spouse’s age on that date.

If the rider is in the Withdrawal Phase at the time of spousal continuation:

1)      The rider will continue in the Withdrawal Phase.
2)      On the Contract anniversary following the date the rider is continued:
  (a)      If the surviving spouse was not the annuitant before the owner’s death, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated by multiplying the Contract value on that Contract anniversary by the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage based on the surviving spouse’s age on that Contract anniversary, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is

Opportunities

K7


  considered to be zero from the claim date to that Contract anniversary. Withdrawals are permitted pursuant to the other provisions of the Contract. Withdrawals causing the Contract value to fall to zero will terminate the Contract and the rider.
(b)      If the surviving spouse was the annuitant before the owner’s death, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is recalculated as the greater of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on the claim date (adjusted for excess withdrawals thereafter) and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal resulting from multiplying the Contract value on that Contract anniversary by the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal does not go to zero on the claim date and withdrawals may continue under the rider provisions.

3) The rider charges will restart on the Contract anniversary following the date the rider is continued and will be the same as were in effect prior to the claim date.

     Effect of ING LifePay Rider on Death Benefit. If you die before Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status begins under the ING LifePay rider, the death benefit is payable, but the rider terminates. However, if the beneficiary is the owner’s spouse, and the spouse elects to continue the Contract, the death benefit is not payable until the spouse’s death. Thus, you should not purchase this rider with multiple owners, unless the owners are spouses. See “Death of Owner or Annuitant” and “Continuation After Death – Spouse” above for further information.

While in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if the owner who is not the annuitant dies, we will continue to pay the periodic payments that the owner was receiving under the ING LifePay rider to the annuitant. While in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if an owner who is also the annuitant dies, the periodic payments will stop. No other death benefit is payable.

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. Other than as provided above under “Continuation After Death- Spouse,” you may not change the annuitant. The rider and rider charges will terminate upon change of owner, including adding an additional owner, except for the following ownership changes:

1)      spousal continuation as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual;
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      change in trust as owner where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual;
7)      change of owner from an individual to a trust where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual; and
8)      change of owner from a trust to an individual where the individual owner and the grantor of the trust are the same individual.

     Surrender Charges. If you elect the ING LifePay rider, your withdrawals will be subject to surrender charges if they exceed the free withdrawal amount. However, once your Contract value is zero, the periodic payments under the ING LifePay rider are not subject to surrender charges.

     Loans. The portion of any Contract value used to pay off an outstanding loan balance will reduce the ING LifePay Base or Maximum Annual Withdrawal as applicable. We do not recommend the ING LifePay rider if loans are contemplated.

     Taxation. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING LifePay Rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

ING Joint LifePay Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (“ING Joint LifePay”) Rider. The ING Joint LifePay rider generally provides, subject to the restrictions and limitations below, that we will guarantee a minimum level of annual withdrawals from the Contract for the lifetime of both you and your spouse, even if these withdrawals deplete your contract value to zero. You may wish to purchase this rider if you are married and are concerned that you and your spouse may outlive your income.

     Purchase. The ING Joint LifePay rider is only available for purchase by individuals who are married at the time of purchase and eligible to elect spousal continuation (as defined by the Tax Code) when the death benefit becomes payable. We refer to these individuals as spouses. Certain ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations are required in order to purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider. See “Ownership, Annuitant, and Beneficiary Requirements,” below.

The minimum issue age is 55 and the maximum issue age is 80. Both spouses must meet these issue age requirements on the contract anniversary on which the ING Joint LifePay rider is effective. Some broker dealers may limit the maximum issue age to ages younger than age 80, but in no event lower than age 55. We reserve the right to change the minimum or maximum issue ages on a nondiscriminatory basis. The ING Joint LifePay rider is available for Contracts issued on and after November 1, 2004 (subject to availability) that do not already have a living benefit rider. The ING Joint LifePay rider will not be issued if the initial allocation to investment options is not in accordance with the investment option restrictions described in “Investment Option Restrictions,” below. For Contracts with the ING LifePay rider, you may elect the ING Joint LifePay rider in place of the ING LifePay rider for a limited time. For more information, please contact our Customer Service Center. The Company in its discretion may allow the ING Joint LifePay rider to be elected during the 30-day period preceding a contract anniversary. Such election must be received in good order, including owner, annuitant, and beneficiary designations and compliance with the investment restrictions described below. The ING Joint LifePay rider will be effective as of that contract anniversary.

     Ownership, Annuitant, and Beneficiary Designation Requirements. Certain ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations are required in order to purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider. These designations depend upon whether the contract is issued as a nonqualified contract, an IRA or a custodial IRA. In all cases, the ownership, annuitant, and beneficiary designations must allow for the surviving spouse to continue the contract when the death benefit becomes payable, as provided by the Tax Code. Non-natural, custodial owners are only allowed with IRAs (“custodial IRAs”). Joint annuitants are not allowed. The necessary ownership, annuitant, and/or beneficiary designations are described below. Applications that do not meet the requirements below will be rejected. We reserve the right to verify the date of birth and social security number of both spouses.

     Nonqualified Contracts. For a jointly owned contract, the owners must be spouses, and the annuitant must be one of the owners. For a contract with only one owner, the owner’s spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary, and the annuitant must be one of the spouses.

     IRAs. There may only be one owner, who must also be the annuitant. The owner’s spouse must be the sole primary beneficiary.

     Custodial IRAs. While we do not maintain individual owner and beneficiary designations for IRAs held by an outside custodian, the ownership and beneficiary designations with the custodian must comply with the requirements listed in “IRAs,” above. The annuitant must be the same as the beneficial owner of the custodial IRA. We require the custodian to provide us the name and date of birth of both the owner and the owner’s spouse.

Rider Date. The ING Joint LifePay rider date is the date the ING Joint LifePay rider becomes effective. If you purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider when the contract is issued, the ING Joint LifePay rider date is also the contract date.

Charge. The charge for the ING Joint LifePay rider, a living benefit, is deducted quarterly, and is a percentage of contract value:

Maximum Annual Charge  Current Annual Charge 
1.50%  0.75% 

We deduct the quarterly 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 added after contract issue, the charges will still be deducted on quarterly contract anniversaries, but the first charge will be pro-rated based on what is owed at the time the rider is added through the contract quarter end. Similarly, the charge is pro-rated when the rider is terminated. Charges are deducted during the period starting on the rider date and up to your rider’s Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status occurs if your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions are met. The charge may be subject to change if you elect the reset option after your first five contract years, but subject to the maximum annual charge.

If the contract value in the subaccounts is insufficient for the charge, then we deduct it from any Fixed Interest Allocations, in which case a Market Value Adjustment may apply. But currently, a Market Value Adjustment would not apply when this charge is deducted from a Fixed Interest Allocation. With Fixed Interest Allocations, we deduct the charge from the Fixed Interest Allocation having the nearest maturity. For more information about the Fixed Interest Allocation, including the Market Value Adjustment, please see Appendix C. We reserve the right to change the charge for this rider, subject to the maximum annual charge. If changed, the new charge will only apply to riders issued after the change.

No Cancellation. Once you purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider, you may not cancel it unless you cancel the contract during the contract’s free look period (or otherwise cancel the contract pursuant to its terms), surrender or annuitize in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay rider. These events automatically cancel the ING Joint LifePay rider.

Termination. The ING Joint LifePay rider is a “living benefit” which means the guaranteed benefits offered are intended to be available to you and your spouse while you are living and while your contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional rider automatically terminates if you:

1)      terminate your contract pursuant to its terms during the accumulation phase, surrender, or begin receiving annuity payments in lieu of payments under the ING Joint LifePay rider;
2)      die during the accumulation phase (first owner to die in the case of joint owners, or death of annuitant if the contract is a custodial IRA), unless your spouse elects to continue the contract (and your spouse is active for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay rider); or
3)      change the owner of the contract (other than a spousal continuation by an active spouse).

See “Change of Owner or Annuitant,” below. Other circumstances that may cause the ING Joint LifePay rider to terminate automatically are discussed below.

     Active Status. Once the ING Joint LifePay rider has been issued, a spouse must remain in “active” status in order to exercise rights and receive the benefits of the ING Joint LifePay rider after the first spouse’s death by electing spousal continuation. In general, changes to the ownership, annuitant, and/or beneficiary designation requirements noted above will result in one spouse being designated as “inactive.” Inactive spouses are not eligible to continue the benefits of the ING Joint LifePay rider after the death of the other spouse. Once designated “inactive,” a spouse may not regain active status under the ING Joint LifePay rider. Specific situations that will result in a spouse’s designation as “inactive” include the following:

1)      For nonqualified contracts where the spouses are joint owners, the removal of a joint owner (if that spouse does not automatically become sole primary beneficiary pursuant to the terms of the contract),

Opportunities

K10


  or the change of one joint owner to a person other than an active spouse.
2)      For nonqualified contracts where one spouse is the owner and the other spouse is the sole primary beneficiary, as well as for IRA contracts (including custodial IRAs), the addition of a joint owner who is not also an active spouse or any change of beneficiary (including the addition of primary beneficiaries).
3)      In the event of the death of one spouse (in which case the deceased spouse becomes inactive).

An owner may also request that one spouse be treated as inactive. In the case of joint-owned contracts, both contract owners must agree to such a request. An inactive spouse is not eligible to exercise any rights or receive any benefits under the ING Joint LifePay rider. However, all charges for the ING Joint LifePay rider will continue to apply, even if one spouse becomes inactive, regardless of the reason. You should make sure you understand the impact of beneficiary and owner changes on the ING Joint LifePay rider prior to requesting any such changes.

A divorce will terminate the ability of an ex-spouse to continue the contract. See “Divorce,” below.

     Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. This status begins on the date the ING Joint LifePay rider is issued (the “effective date of the ING Joint LifePay rider”) and continues until the earliest of:

1)      the annuity commencement date;
2)      reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal;
3)      reduction of the contract value to zero by a withdrawal less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (see “Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status,” below);
4)      the surrender of the contract; or
5)      the death of the owner (first owner, in the case of joint owners, or the annuitant, in the case of a custodial IRA), unless your active spouse beneficiary elects to continue the contract.

As described below, certain features of the ING Joint LifePay rider may differ depending upon whether you are in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status.

     How the ING Joint LifePay Rider Works. The ING Joint LifePay rider has two phases. The first phase, called the Growth Phase, begins on the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay rider and ends as of the business day before the first withdrawal is taken (or when the annuity commencement date is reached). The second phase is called the Withdrawal Phase. This phase begins as of the date you take the first withdrawal of any kind under the contract (other than investment advisory fees, as described below), or the annuity commencement date, whichever occurs first. During the accumulation phase of the contract, the ING Joint LifePay rider may be in either the Growth Phase or the Withdrawal Phase. During the income phase of the contract, the ING Joint LifePay rider may only be in the Withdrawal Phase. The ING Joint LifePay rider is initially in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. While in this status you may terminate the ING Joint LifePay rider by electing to enter the income phase and begin receiving annuity payments. However, if you have not elected to begin receiving annuity payments, and the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status because the contract value has been reduced to zero, the ING Joint LifePay rider and contract terminate (other than those provisions regarding the payment of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, as described below) and you can no longer elect to receive annuity payments.

Benefits paid under the ING Joint LifePay rider require the calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The ING Joint LifePay Base (referred to as the “MGWB Base” in the contract) is used to determine the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and is calculated as follows:

1)      If you purchased the ING Joint LifePay rider on the contract date, the initial ING Joint LifePay Base is equal to the initial premium.

Opportunities

K11


2)      If you purchased the ING Joint LifePay rider after the contract date, the initial ING Joint LifePay Base is equal to the contract value on the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay rider.
3)      The initial ING Joint LifePay Base is increased dollar-for-dollar by any premiums received during the Growth Phase (“eligible premiums”). The ING Joint LifePay Base is also increased to equal the contract value if the contract value is greater than the current ING Joint LifePay Base, valued on each quarterly contract anniversary after the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay rider during the Growth Phase. The ING Joint LifePay Base has no additional impact on the calculation of annuity payments or withdrawal benefits.

Currently, any additional premiums paid during the Withdrawal Phase are not eligible premiums for purposes of determining the ING Joint LifePay Base or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal; however, we reserve the right to treat such premiums as eligible premiums at our discretion, in a nondiscriminatory manner. Premiums received during the Withdrawal Phase do increase the contract value used to determine the reset Maximum Annual Withdrawal if you choose to reset the ING Joint LifePay rider (see “ING Joint LifePay Reset Option,” below). We reserve the right to discontinue allowing premium payments during the Withdrawal Phase.

     Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is determined on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins. It equals the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the greater of the contract value and the ING Joint LifePay Base, as of the last day of the Growth Phase. The first withdrawal after the effective date of the ING Joint LifePay rider (which causes the end of the Growth Phase) is treated as occurring on the first day of the Withdrawal Phase, immediately after calculation of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage, which varies by age of the youngest active spouse on the date the Withdrawal Phase begins, is as follows:

  Maximum Annual 
Annuitant Age  Withdrawal Percentage 
55-64  4% 
65-75  5% 
76-80  6% 
81+  7% 

Once determined the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage never changes for the contract. This is important to keep in mind in deciding when to take your first withdrawal because the younger you are at that time, the lower the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage.

If the ING Joint LifePay rider is in the Growth Phase, and the annuity commencement date is reached, the ING Joint LifePay rider will enter the Withdrawal Phase and annuity payments will begin. In lieu of the annuity options under the Contract, you may elect a life only annuity option under which we will pay the greater of the annuity payout under the Contract and equal annual payments of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, provided that, if both spouses are active, payments under the life only annuity option will be calculated using the joint life expectancy table for both spouses. If only one spouse is active, payments will be calculated using the single life expectancy table for the active spouse.

Withdrawals in a contract year that do not exceed the Maximum Withdrawal Amount do not reduce the Maximum Withdrawal Amount. However, if withdrawals in any contract year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (an “excess withdrawal”), the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. This means that the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be reduced by the same proportion as the excess withdrawal is of the contract value determined after the deduction the amount withdrawn up to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal but before deduction of the excess withdrawal.

When a withdrawal is made, the total withdrawals taken in a contract year are compared with the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal. To the extent that the withdrawal taken causes the total withdrawals in that year

Opportunities

K12


to exceed the current Maximum Annual Withdrawal, that withdrawal is considered excess. For purposes of determining whether the Maximum Annual Withdrawal has been exceeded, any applicable Market Value Adjustment or surrender charges will not be considered. However, for purposes of determining the Maximum Annual Withdrawal reduction after an excess withdrawal, surrender charges and/or Market Value Adjustment are considered to be part of the withdrawal, and will be included in the pro-rata adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. See Illustrations 1 and 2 below for examples of this concept.

     Required Minimum Distributions. Withdrawals taken from the contract to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution rules of the Tax Code are considered withdrawals for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay rider, and will begin the Withdrawal Phase if the Withdrawal Phase has not already started. Any such withdrawal which exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for a specific contract year, will not be deemed excess withdrawals in that contract year for purposes of the ING Joint LifePay rider, subject to the following:

1)      If the contract owner’s Required Minimum Distribution for a calendar year (determined on a date on or before January 31 of that year), applicable to the contract, is greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on that date, an Additional Withdrawal Amount will be set equal to that portion of the Required Minimum Distribution that exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.
2)      You may withdraw the Additional Withdrawal Amount from this contract without it being deemed an excess withdrawal.
3)      Any withdrawals taken in a contract year will count first against the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for that contract year.
4)      Once the Maximum Annual Withdrawal for the then current contract year has been taken, additional amounts withdrawn in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will count against and reduce any Additional Withdrawal Amount.
5)      Withdrawals that exceed the Additional Withdrawal Amount are excess withdrawals and will reduce the Maximum Annual Withdrawal on a pro-rata basis, as described above.
6)      The Additional Withdrawal Amount is reset to zero at the end of each calendar year, and remains at zero until it is reset in January of the following calendar year, even if, pursuant to the Tax Code, the contract owner may take a Required Minimum Distribution for that calendar year after the end of the calendar year.
7)      If the contract is still in the Growth Phase on the date the Additional Withdrawal Amount is determined, but enters the Withdrawal Phase later during that calendar year, the Additional Withdrawal Amount will be equal to the amount in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount necessary to satisfy the Required Minimum Distribution for that year (if any).

See Illustration 3 below.

     Investment Advisory Fees. Withdrawals taken pursuant to a program established by the owner for the payment of investment advisory fees to a named third party investment adviser for advice on management of the contract’s values will not cause the Withdrawal Phase to begin. During the Growth Phase, such withdrawals reduce the ING Joint LifePay Base on a pro-rata basis, and during the Withdrawal Phase, these withdrawals are treated as any other withdrawal.

     Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. If the contract value is reduced to zero by a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, the contract and the ING Joint LifePay rider will terminate due to the pro-rata reduction described in “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above.

If the contract value is reduced to zero for a reason other than a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal while the ING Joint LifePay rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the ING Joint LifePay rider will enter Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and you are no longer entitled to make

Opportunities

K13


withdrawals. Instead, under the ING Joint LifePay rider you will begin to receive periodic payments in an annual amount equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

When the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status:

1)      the contract will provide no further benefits (including death benefits) other than as provided under the ING Joint LifePay rider;
2)      no further premium payments will be accepted; and
3)      any other riders attached to the contract will terminate, unless otherwise specified in that rider.

During Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you periodic payments in an annual amount that is equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal. The time period for which we will make these payments will depend upon whether one or two spouses are active under the ING Joint LifePay rider at the time this status begins. If both spouses are active under the ING Joint LifePay rider, these payments will cease upon the death of the second spouse, at which time both the ING Joint LifePay rider and the contract will terminate without further value. If only one spouse is active under the ING Joint LifePay rider, the payments will cease upon the death of the active spouse, at which time both the ING Joint LifePay rider and the contract will terminate without value.

If the Maximum Annual Withdrawal exceeds the net withdrawals taken the contract year when the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status (including the withdrawal that results in the contract value decreasing to zero), that difference will be paid immediately to the contract owner. The periodic payments will begin on the last day of the first full contract year following the date the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and will continue to be paid annually thereafter.

You may elect to receive systematic withdrawals pursuant to the terms of the contract. Under a systematic withdrawal, either a fixed amount or an amount based upon a percentage of the contract value will be withdrawn from your contract and paid to you on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly or annually. If, at the time the ING Joint LifePay rider enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, you are receiving systematic withdrawals under the contract more frequently than annually, the periodic payments will be made at the same frequency in equal amounts such that the sum of the payments in each contract year will equal the annual Maximum Annual Withdrawal. Such payments will be made on the same payment dates as previously set up, if the payments were being made monthly or quarterly. If the payments were being made semi-annually or annually, the payments will be made at the end of the half-contract year or contract year, as applicable.

     ING Joint LifePay Reset Option. Beginning one year after the Withdrawal Phase begins, you may choose to reset the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, if the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the contract value would be greater than your current Maximum Annual Withdrawal. You must elect to reset by a request in a form satisfactory to us. On the date the request is received (the “Reset Effective Date”), the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will increase to be equal to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the contract value on the Reset Effective Date. The reset option is only available when the ING Joint LifePay rider is in Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. We reserve the right to limit resets to the contract anniversary.

After exercising the reset option, you must wait one year before electing to reset again. We will not accept a request to reset if the new Maximum Annual Withdrawal on the date the request is received would be less than your current Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

If the reset option is exercised, the charge for the ING Joint LifePay rider will be equal to the charge then in effect for a newly purchased rider but will not exceed the maximum annual charge of 1.50%. However, we guarantee that the ING Joint LifePay rider charge will not increase for resets exercised within the first five contract years. See Illustration 4 below.

     Investment Option Restrictions. In order to mitigate the insurance risk inherent in our guarantee to provide you and your spouse with lifetime payments (subject to the terms and restrictions of the ING Joint LifePay rider), we require that your contract value be allocated in accordance with certain limitations. In general, to the extent that you choose not to invest in the Accepted Funds, we require that 20% of the amount not so invested be invested in the Fixed Allocation Funds. We will require this allocation regardless of your investment instructions to the contract, as described below.

While the ING Joint LifePay 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 20% of such contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds. See “Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing,” below.

<R>
Accepted Funds. Currently, the Accepted Funds are:   
 
 BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund  ING MFS Total Return Portfolio

You may allocate contract value to one or more of the Fixed Allocation Funds. We consider the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be the default Fixed Allocation Fund with Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.

</R>

     Other Funds. All portfolios available under the contract other than Accepted Funds or the Fixed Allocation Funds are considered Other Funds.

     Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. If the contract value in the Fixed Allocation Funds is less than 20% of the total contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds on any ING Joint LifePay Rebalancing Date, we will automatically rebalance the contract value allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds and Other Funds so that 20% of this amount is allocated to the Fixed Allocation Funds. Accepted Funds are excluded from Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing. Any rebalancing is done on a pro-rata basis among the Other Funds and will be the last transaction processed on that date. The ING Joint LifePay Rebalancing Dates occur on each contract anniversary and after the following transactions:

1) receipt of additional premiums;

2) transfer or reallocation among the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds, whether automatic or specifically directed by you; and

3) withdrawals from the Fixed Allocation Funds or Other Funds.

Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing is separate from any other automatic rebalancing under the contract. However, if the other automatic rebalancing under the contract causes the allocations to be out of compliance with the investment option restrictions noted above, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing will occur immediately after the automatic rebalancing to restore the required allocations. See “Appendix I – Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing.”

In certain circumstances, Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing may result in a reallocation into the Fixed Allocation Funds even if you have not previously been invested in them. See “Appendix I –Examples of Fixed Allocation Funds Automatic Rebalancing, Example I.” By electing to purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider, you are providing the Company with direction and authorization to process these transactions, including reallocations into the Fixed Allocation Funds. You should not purchase the ING Joint LifePay rider if you do not wish to have your contract value reallocated in this manner.

     Divorce. Generally, in the event of a divorce, the spouse who retains ownership of the contract will continue to be entitled to all rights and benefits of the ING Joint LifePay rider, while the ex-spouse will no longer have any such rights or be entitled to any such benefits. In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status, the ING Joint LifePay rider continues, and terminates upon the death of the owner (first owner in the case of joint owners, or the annuitant in the case of a custodial IRA). Although spousal continuation may be available under the Tax Code for a subsequent spouse, the ING Joint LifePay rider cannot be continued by the new spouse. As the

Opportunities

K16


result of the divorce, we may be required to withdraw assets for the benefit of an ex-spouse. Any such withdrawal will be considered a withdrawal for purposes of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount. In other words, if a withdrawal incident to a divorce exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount, it will be considered an excess withdrawal. See “Determination of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal,” above. As noted, in the event of a divorce there is no change to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and we will continue to deduct charges for the ING Joint LifePay rider.

In the event of a divorce during Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, there will be no change to the periodic payments made. Payments will continue until both spouses are deceased.

     Death of Owner. The death of the owner (or in the case of joint owners, the first owner, or for custodial IRAs, the annuitant) during Lifetime Guaranteed Withdrawal Status may cause the termination of the ING Joint LifePay rider and its charges, depending upon whether one or both spouses are in active status at the time of death, as described below.

1)      If both spouses are in active status: If the surviving spouse elects to continue the contract and becomes the sole owner and annuitant, the ING Joint LifePay rider will remain in effect pursuant to its original terms and ING Joint LifePay coverage and charges will continue. As of the date the contract is continued, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will be set to the greater of the existing Maximum Annual Withdrawal or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage multiplied by the contract value on the date the contract is continued. Such a reset will not count as an exercise of the ING Joint LifePay Reset Option, and rider charges will not increase.
  If the surviving spouse elects not to continue the contract, ING Joint LifePay rider coverage and charges will cease upon the earlier of payment of the death benefit or notice that an alternative distribution option has been chosen.
2)      If the surviving spouse is in inactive status: The ING Joint LifePay rider terminates and ING Joint LifePay coverage and charges cease upon proof of death.

     Change of Owner or Annuitant. Other than as a result of spousal continuation, you may not change the annuitant. The ING Joint LifePay rider and rider charges will terminate upon change of owner, including adding an additional owner, except for the following ownership changes:

1)      spousal continuation by an active spouse, as described above;
2)      change of owner from one custodian to another custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
3)      change of owner from a custodian for the benefit of an individual to the same individual (in order to avoid the owner’s spouse from being designated inactive, the owner’s spouse must be named sole beneficiary under the contract);
4)      change of owner from an individual to a custodian for the benefit of the same individual;
5)      collateral assignments;
6)      for nonqualified contracts only, the addition of a joint owner, provided that the additional joint owner is the original owner’s spouse and is active when added as joint owner;
7)      for nonqualified contracts, removal of a joint owner, provided the removed joint owner is active and becomes the primary contract beneficiary; and
8)      change of owner where the owner becomes the sole primary beneficiary and the sole primary beneficiary becomes the owner if both were active spouses at the time of the change.

     Surrender Charges. If you elect the ING Joint LifePay rider, your withdrawals will be subject to surrender charges if they exceed the free withdrawal amount. However, once your contract value is zero, the periodic payments under the ING Joint LifePay rider are not subject to surrender charges, nor will these amounts be subject to any other charges under the contract.

     Federal Tax Considerations. For more information about the tax treatment of amounts paid to you under the ING Joint LifePay rider, see “Federal Tax Considerations – Tax Consequences of Living Benefits and Death Benefit.”

ING LifePay and ING Joint LifePay Partial Withdrawal Amount Examples. The following are examples of adjustments to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for withdrawals in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal:

Illustration 1: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, including surrender and/or MVA charges.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $500 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $300 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $200 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, then there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $7,000 ($3,000 + $500 + $1,500 + $300 + $1,500 + $200). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal ($7,000 - $5,000 = $2,000), and the amount of the current gross withdrawal ($1,500 + $200 = $1,700).

If the Account Value before this withdrawal is $50,000, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 3.40% ($1,700 / $50,000) to $4,830 ((1 - 3.40%) * $5,000).

Illustration 2: Adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount for a withdrawal in excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000.

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. Because total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, there is an adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Total gross withdrawals during the contract year are $6,000 ($3,000 + $1,500 + $1,500). The adjustment is the lesser of the amount by which the total gross withdrawals for the year exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000, and the amount of the current gross withdrawal, $1,500.

If the Account Value after the part of the gross withdrawal that was within the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $500, is $49,500, then the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is reduced by 2.02% ($1,000 / $49,500) to $4,899 ((1 - 2.02%) * $5,000).

Illustration 3: A withdrawal exceeds the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount but does not exceed the Additional Withdrawal Amount.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000. The RMD for the current calendar year applicable to this contract is determined to be $6,000. The Additional Withdrawal Amount is set equal to the excess of this amount above the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000).

The first withdrawal taken during the contract year is $3,000 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges, and/or MVA charges. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not exceeded because total net withdrawals, $4,500, do not exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000.

The next withdrawal taken during the contract year is $1,500 net, with $0 of surrender charges. and/or MVA charges. Total net withdrawals taken, $6,000, exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $5,000, however, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is not adjusted until the Additional Withdrawal Amount is exhausted. The amount by which total net withdrawals taken exceed the Maximum Annual Withdrawal, $1,000 ($6,000 - $5,000), is the same as the Additional Withdrawal Amount, so no adjustment to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is made. If total net withdrawals taken had exceeded the sum of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal and the Additional Withdrawal Amount, then an adjustment would be made to the Maximum Annual Withdrawal.

Illustration 4: The Reset Option is utilized.

Assume the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is $5,000 and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal percentage is 5%.

One year after the first withdrawal is taken, the contract value has increased to $120,000, and the Reset Option is utilized. The Maximum Annual Withdrawal is now $6,000 ($120,000 * 5%).

One year after the Reset Option was first utilized, the contract value has increased further to $130,000. The Reset Option is utilized again, and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is now $6,500 ($130,000 * 5%).

  APPENDIX L

Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit

(Applicable to Contracts Issued in States Where ING LifePay is not Available.)

Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Rider (MGWB). The MGWB rider, marketed under the name, ING PrincipalGuard Withdrawal Benefit, is an optional benefit which guarantees that if your contract value is reduced to zero, you will receive periodic payments. The amount of the periodic payments is based on the amount in the MGWB Withdrawal Account. Only premiums added to your Contract during the first two-year period after your rider date are included in the MGWB Withdrawal Account. Any additional premium payments added after the second rider anniversary are not included in the MGWB Withdrawal Account. Thus, the MGWB rider may not be appropriate for you if you plan to add substantial premium payments after your second rider anniversary.

The guarantee provides that, subject to the conditions described below, the amount you will receive in periodic payments is equal to your Eligible Payment Amount adjusted for any prior withdrawals. Your Eligible Payment Amount depends on when you purchase the MGWB rider and equals:

1)      if you purchased the MGWB rider on the contract date: your premium payments received during the first two contract years;
2)      if you purchased the MGWB rider after the contract date: your contract value on the Rider Date, including any premiums received that day, and any subsequent premium payments received during the two-year period commencing on the Rider Date.

To maintain the guarantee, withdrawals in any contract year may not exceed 7% of your Eligible Payment Amount adjusted, as defined below. If your contract value is reduced to zero, your periodic payments will be 7% of your Eligible Payment Amount every year. Payments continue until your MGWB Withdrawal Account is reduced to zero. Please note that before Automatic Periodic Benefit status is reached, withdrawals in excess of the free withdrawal amount will be subject to surrender charges. Once your contract reaches Automatic Period Benefit Status, the periodic payments paid under the MGWB rider are not subject to surrender charges.

The MGWB Withdrawal Account is equal to the Eligible Payment Amount adjusted for any withdrawals and transfers between Covered and Excluded Funds. The MGWB Withdrawal Account is tracked separately for Covered and Excluded Funds. The MGWB Withdrawal Account equals the sum of (a) the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds, and (b) the lesser of (i) the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds and (ii) the contract value in Excluded Funds. Thus, investing in the Excluded Funds may limit the MGWB Withdrawal Account. No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds for the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit.

The Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (or “MAW”) is equal to 7% of the Eligible Payment Amount. Withdrawals from Covered Funds of up to the MAW will reduce the value of your MGWB Withdrawal Account by the dollar amount of the withdrawal. Any withdrawals from Covered Funds greater than the MAW will cause a reduction in the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds by the proportion that the excess withdrawal bears to the remaining contract value in Covered Funds after the withdrawal of the MAW. All withdrawals from Excluded Funds will reduce the value of the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. If a single withdrawal involves both Covered and Excluded Funds and exceeds 7%, the withdrawal will be treated as taken first from Covered Funds.

Any withdrawals greater than the MAW will also cause a reduction in the Eligible Payment Amount by the proportion that the excess portion of the withdrawal bears to the contract value remaining after withdrawal of the MAW at the time of the withdrawal. Please see “MGWB Excess Withdrawal Amount Examples below.”

Opportunities

L1


Once your contract value is zero, any periodic payments paid under the MGWB rider also reduce the MGWB Withdrawal Account by the dollar amount of the payments. If a withdrawal reduces the MGWB Withdrawal Account to zero, the MGWB rider terminates and no further benefits are payable under the rider.

Net transfers from Covered Funds to Excluded Funds will reduce the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds on a pro-rata basis. The resulting increase in the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds equals the reduction in the MGWB Withdrawal Account for Covered Funds.

Net transfers from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds will reduce the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. The resulting increase in the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds will equal the lesser of the reduction in the MGWB Withdrawal Account for Excluded Funds and the net contract value transferred.

You should not make any withdrawals if you wish to retain the option to elect the Step-Up Benefit (see below).

The MGWB Withdrawal Account is only a calculation which represents the remaining amount available for periodic payments. It does not represent a contract value, nor does it guarantee performance of the subaccounts in which you are invested. It will not affect your annuitization, surrender and death benefits.

     Guaranteed Withdrawal Status. You may continue to make withdrawals in any amount permitted under your Contract so long as your contract value is greater than zero. See “Withdrawals.” However, making any withdrawals in any year greater than the Maximum Annual Withdrawal will reduce the Eligible Payment Amount and payments under the MGWB rider by the proportion that the withdrawal bears to the contract value at the time of the withdrawal. The MGWB rider will remain in force and you may continue to make withdrawals each year so long as:

1)      your contract value is greater than zero;
2)      your MGWB Withdrawal Account is greater than zero;
3)      you have not reached your latest allowable annuity start date;
4)      you have not elected to annuitize your Contract; and
5)      you have not died (unless your spouse has elected to continue the Contract), changed the ownership of the Contract or surrendered the Contract.

The standard Contract provision limiting withdrawals to no more than 90% of the cash surrender value is not applicable under the MGWB rider.

     Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Under the MGWB rider, in the event your contract value is reduced to zero, your Contract is given Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, if:

1)      your MGWB Withdrawal Account is greater than zero;
2)      you have not reached your latest allowable annuity start date;
3)      you have not elected to annuitize your Contract; and
4)      you have not died, changed the ownership of the Contract or surrendered the Contract.

Once your Contract is given Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will pay you the annual MGWB periodic payments, beginning on the next contract anniversary until the earliest of (i) your Contract’s latest annuity start date, (ii) the death of the owner; or (iii) your MGWB Withdrawal Account is exhausted. These payments are equal to the lesser of the remaining MGWB Withdrawal Account or the MAW. We will reduce the MGWB Withdrawal Account by the amount of each payment. Once your Contract is given Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, we will not accept any additional premium payments in your Contract, and the Contract will not provide any benefits except those provided by the MGWB rider. Any other rider terminates. Your Contract will remain in Automatic Periodic

Opportunities

L2


Benefit Status until the earliest of (i) payment of all MGWB periodic payments, (ii) payment of the Commuted Value (defined below) or (iii) the owner’s death.

On the Contract’s latest annuity start date, in lieu of making the remaining MGWB periodic payments, we will pay you the Commuted Value of your MGWB periodic payments remaining. We may, at our option, extend your annuity start date in order to continue the MGWB periodic payments. The Commuted Value is the present value of any then-remaining MGWB periodic payments at the current interest rate plus 0.50%. The current interest rate will be determined by the average of the Ask Yields for U.S. Treasury STRIPS as quoted by a national quoting service for period(s) applicable to the remaining payments. Once we pay you the last MGWB periodic payment or the Commuted Value, your Contract and the MGWB rider terminate.

     Reset Option. Beginning on the fifth contract anniversary following the Rider Date, if the contract value is greater than the MGWB Withdrawal Account, you may choose to reset the MGWB Rider. The effect will be to terminate the existing MGWB Rider and add a new MGWB Rider (“New Rider”). The MGWB Withdrawal Account under the New Rider will equal the contract value on the date the New Rider is effective. The charge for the MGWB under the New Rider and any right to reset again will be based on the terms of the New Rider when it is issued. We reserve the right to limit the reset election to contract anniversaries only. If you elect the Reset Option, the Step-Up benefit is not available.

     Step-Up Benefit. If the Rider Date is the same as the Contract Date, beginning on the fifth contract anniversary following the Rider Date, if you have not made any previous withdrawals, you may elect to increase the MGWB Withdrawal Account, the adjusted Eligible Payment Amount and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal by a factor of 20%. This option is available whether or not the contract value is greater than the MGWB Withdrawal Account. If you elect the Step-Up Benefit:

1)      we reserve the right to increase the charge for the MGWB Rider up to a maximum annual charge of 1.00% of contract value;
2)      you must wait at least five years from the Step-Up date to elect the Reset Option.

The Step-Up Benefit may be elected only one time under the MGWB Rider. We reserve the right to limit the election of the Step-Up Benefit to contract anniversaries only. Please note that if you have a third party investment advisor who charges a separate advisory fee, and you have chosen to use withdrawals from your contract to pay this fee, these will be treated as any other withdrawals, and the Step-Up Benefit will not be available.

Death of Owner.

     Before Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The MGWB rider terminates on the first owner’s date of death (death of annuitant, if there is a non-natural owner), but the death benefit is payable. However, if the beneficiary is the owner’s spouse, the spouse elects to continue the Contract, and the contract value steps up to the minimum guaranteed death benefit, the MGWB Withdrawal Account and MAW are also reset. The MGWB charge will continue at the existing rate. Reset upon spousal continuation does not affect any then existing Reset Option.

     During Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. The death benefit payable during Automatic Periodic Benefit Status is your MGWB Withdrawal Account which equals the sum of the remaining MGWB periodic payments.

     Purchase. To purchase the MGWB rider, you must be age 80 or younger on the Rider Date. The MGWB rider must be purchased on the contract date. If the rider is not yet available in your state, the Company may in its discretion allow purchase of this rider during the 30-day period preceding the first contract anniversary after the date of this prospectus, or the date of state approval, whichever is later.

MGWB Excess Withdrawal Amount Examples. The following are examples of adjustments to the MGWB Withdrawal Account and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount for Transfers and Withdrawals in Excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (“Excess Withdrawals Amount”):

Example #1: Owner has invested only in Covered Funds

     Assume the Contract Value (CV) before the withdrawal is $100,000 and is invested in Covered Funds only, the Eligible Payment Amount (EPA) is $100,000, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (MAW) is $7,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds (“Covered Withdrawal Account”) is $120,000, and a withdrawal of $10,000 is made. The effect of the withdrawal is calculated as follows:

The new CV is $90,000 ($100,000 - $10,000).

The Excess Withdrawal Amount is $3,000 ($10,000 - $7,000).

     The Covered Withdrawal Account is first reduced dollar-for-dollar by the portion of the withdrawal up to the MAW to $113,000 ($120,000 - $7,000), and is then reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal Amount to the CV (after being reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $109,354.84 ($113,000 * (1 - $3,000 / $93,000)).

     The EPA is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal Amount to the CV (after being reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $96,774.19 ($100,000 * (1 - $3,000 / $93,000)). The reduction to the EPA for withdrawals of Excess Withdrawal Amount is applied pro-rata regardless of whether CV is allocated to Covered or Excluded Funds. The MAWis then recalculated to be 7% of the new EPA, $6,774.19 ($96,774.19 * 7%).

Example #2: Owner has invested only in Excluded Funds

     Assume the Contract Value (CV) before the withdrawal is $100,000 and is invested in Excluded Funds only, the Eligible Payment Amount (EPA) is $100,000, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (MAW) is $7,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds (“Excluded Withdrawal Account”) is $120,000, and a withdrawal of $10,000 is made. The effect of the withdrawal is calculated as follows:

The new CV is $90,000 ($100,000 - $10,000).

The Excess Withdrawal Amount is $3,000 ($10,000 - $7.000).

     The Excluded Withdrawal Account is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the entire amount withdrawn to the CV (before the withdrawal) to $108,000 ($120,000 * (1 - $10,000 / $100,000)).

L4


     The EPA is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal Amount to the CV (after being reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $96,774.19 ($100,000 * (1 - $3,000/$93,000)). The reduction to the EPA for withdrawals of Excess Withdrawal Amount is applied pro-rata regardless of whether CV is allocated to Covered or Excluded Funds. The MAWis then recalculated to be 7% of the new EPA, $6,774.19 ($96,774.19 * 7%).

Example #3: Owner has invested in both Covered and Excluded Funds

     Assume the Contract Value (CV) before the withdrawal is $100,000 and is invested $60,000 in Covered Funds and $40,000 in Excluded Funds. Further assume that the Eligible Payment Amount (EPA) is $100,000, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount (MAW) is $7,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds (“Covered Withdrawal Account”) is $75,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds (“Excluded Withdrawal Account”) is $45,000, and a withdrawal is made of $10,000 ($8,000 from Covered Funds and $2,000 from Excluded Funds).

     The new CV for Covered Funds is $52,000 ($60,000 - $8,000), and the new CV for Excluded Funds is $38,000 ($40,000 - $2,000).

     The Covered Withdrawal Account is first reduced dollar-for-dollar by the lesser of the MAW ($7,000) and the amount withdrawn from Covered Funds ($8,000) to $68,000 ($75,000 - $7,000), and is then reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of any Excess Withdrawal Amount from Covered Funds to the CV in Covered Funds (after being reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $66,716.98 ($68,000 * (1 – $1,000 / $53,000).

     The Excluded Withdrawal Account is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the amount withdrawn from Excluded Funds to the CV in Excluded Funds (prior to the withdrawal) to $42,750 ($45,000 * (1 - $2,000 / $40,000)).

     The EPA is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the Excess Withdrawal Amount to the CV (after being reduced for the withdrawal up to the MAW) to $96,774.19 ($100,000 * (1 - $3,000 / $93,000)). The reduction to the EPA for withdrawals of Excess Withdrawal Amount is applied pro-rata regardless of whether CV is allocated to Covered or Excluded Funds. The MAWis then recalculated to be 7% of the new EPA, $6,774.19 ($96,774.19 * 7%).

Example #4: Owner transfers funds from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds

     Assume the Contract Value (CV) before the transfer is $100,000 and is invested $60,000 in Covered Funds and $40,000 in Excluded Funds. Further assume that the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Covered Funds (“Covered Withdrawal Account”) is $75,000, the MGWB Withdrawal Account allocated to Excluded Funds (“Excluded Withdrawal Account”) is $45,000, and a transfer is made of $10,000 from Excluded Funds to Covered Funds.

     The new CV for Covered Funds is $70,000 ($60,000 + $10,000), and the new CV for Excluded Funds is $30,000 ($40,000 - $10,000).

     The Excluded Withdrawal Account is reduced pro-rata based on the ratio of the amount transferred from Excluded Funds to the CV in Excluded Funds (prior to the transfer) to $33,750 ($45,000 * (1 - $10,000 / $40,000)).

     The Covered Withdrawal Account is increased by the lesser of the reduction of the Excluded Withdrawal Account of $11,250 ($45,000 - $33,750) and the actual amount transferred of $10,000. Thus, the Covered Withdrawal Account is increased to $85,000 ($75,000 + $10,000).

Introduction
This Statement of Additional Information provides background information regarding Separate Account
B.

Description of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company
ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (“ING USA”) is an Iowa stock life insurance company,
which was originally incorporated in Minnesota on January 2, 1973. ING USA is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc. (“Lion Connecticut”), which in turn is a wholly owned
subsidiary of ING Groep N.V. (“ING”), a global financial services holding company based in The
Netherlands. ING USA is authorized to sell insurance and annuities in all states, except New York and
the District of Columbia. ING USA’s financial statements appear in the Statement of Additional
Information.

As of December 31, 2008, ING USA had approximately $787.1 million in stockholder’s equity and
approximately $69,733.3 billion in total assets, including approximately $34,090.8 billion of separate
account assets. ING USA is authorized to do business in all jurisdictions except New York. ING USA
offers variable insurance products. ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York (“RLNY”), an
affiliate of ING USA, is licensed to do variable annuity business in the state of New York.

Separate Account B of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company
Separate Account B is a separate account established by the Company for the purpose of funding variable
annuity contracts issued by the Company. The separate account is registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company act of 1940, as
amended. Purchase payments to accounts under the contract may be allocated to one or more of the
subaccounts. Each subaccount invests in the shares of only one of the funds offered under the contracts.
We may make additions to, deletions from or substitutions of available investment options as permitted
by law and subject to the conditions of the contract. The availability of the funds is subject to applicable
regulatory authorization. Not all funds are available in all jurisdictions or under all contracts.

Safekeeping of Assets
ING USA acts as its own custodian for Separate Account B.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Ernst & Young LLP, 55 Ivan Allen Jr. Boulevard, Suite 1000, Atlanta, Georgia 30308, an Independent
Registered Public Accounting Firm, performs annual audits of ING USA and Separate Account B.

Distribution of Contracts
The offering of contracts under the prospectus associated with this Statement of Additional Information is
continuous. Directed Services LLC, an affiliate of ING USA, acts as the principal underwriter (as defined
in the Securities Act of 1933 and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the variable
insurance products (the “variable insurance products”) issued by ING USA. The contracts are distributed
through registered representatives of other broker-dealers who have entered into selling agreements with
Directed Services LLC. For the years ended 2008, 2007 and 2006 commissions paid by ING USA,
including amounts paid by its affiliated Company, RLNY, to Directed Services LLC aggregated
$622,486,274, $568,432,009 and $429,206,095, respectively. All commissions received by the
distributor were passed through to the broker-dealers who sold the contracts. Directed Services LLC is
located at 1475 Dunwoody Drive, West Chester, Pennsylvania 19380-1478.

1 


Under a management services agreement, last amended in 1995, ING USA provides to Directed Services
LLC certain of its personnel to perform management, administrative and clerical services and the use of
certain facilities. ING USA charges Directed Services LLC for such expenses and all other general and
administrative costs, first on the basis of direct charges when identifiable, and the remainder allocated
based on the estimated amount of time spent by ING USA’s employees on behalf of Directed Services
LLC. In the opinion of management, this method of cost allocation is reasonable. This fee, calculated as
a percentage of average assets in the variable separate accounts, was $139,224,091, $109,907,841 and
$70,763,649, for the years ended 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively.

Published Ratings
From time to time, the rating of ING USA as an insurance company by A.M. Best may be referred to in
advertisements or in reports to contract owners. Each year the A.M. Best Company reviews the financial
status of thousands of insurers, culminating in the assignment of Best’s Ratings. These ratings reflect
their current opinion of the relative financial strength and operating performance of an insurance company
in comparison to the norms of the life/health insurance industry. Best’s ratings range from A+ + to F. An
A++ and A+ ratings mean, in the opinion of A.M. Best, that the insurer has demonstrated the strongest
ability to meet its respective policyholder and other contractual obligations.

Accumulation Unit Value
The calculation of the Accumulation Unit Value (“AUV”) is discussed in the prospectus for the Contracts
under Condensed Financial Information. Note that in your Contract, accumulation unit value is referred
to as the Index of Investment Experience. The following illustrations show a calculation of a new AUV
and the purchase of Units (using hypothetical examples). Note that the examples below do not reflect the
mortality and expense risk charge for this product and are for illustration purposes only. For AUV’s

Performance Information
From time to time, we may advertise or include in reports to contract owner’s performance information
for the subaccounts of Separate Account B, including the average annual total return performance, yields
and other nonstandard measures of performance. Such performance data will be computed, or
accompanied by performance data computed, in accordance with standards defined by the SEC.

Except for the Liquid Assets subaccount, quotations of yield for the subaccounts will be based on all
investment income per unit (contract value divided by the accumulation unit) earned during a given 30-
day period, less expenses accrued during such period. Information on standard total average annual
return performance will include average annual rates of total return for 1-, 5- and 10-year periods, or
lesser periods depending on how long Separate Account B has been investing in the portfolio. We may
show other total returns for periods of less than one year. We will base total return figures on the actual
historic performance of the subaccounts of Separate Account B, assuming an investment at the beginning
of the period when the separate account first invested in the portfolios, and withdrawal of the investment
at the end of the period, adjusted to reflect the deduction of all applicable portfolio and current contract
charges. We may also show rates of total return on amounts invested at the beginning of the period with
no withdrawal at the end of the period. Total return figures which assume no withdrawals at the end of
the period will reflect all recurring charges. In addition, we may present historic performance data for the
investment portfolios since their inception reduced by some or all of the fees and charges under the
Contract. Such adjusted historic performance includes data that precedes the inception dates of the
subaccounts of Separate Account B. This data is designed to show the performance that would have
resulted if the Contract had been in existence before the separate account began investing in the
portfolios.

Current yield for the Liquid Assets subaccount is based on income received by a hypothetical investment
over a given 7-day period, less expenses accrued, and then “annualized” (i.e., assuming that the 7-day
yield would be received for 52 weeks). We calculate “effective yield” for the Liquid Assets subaccount
in a manner similar to that used to calculate yield, but when annualized, the income earned by the
investment is assumed to be reinvested. The “effective yield” will thus be slightly higher than the “yield”
because of the compounding effect of earnings. We calculate quotations of yield for the remaining
subaccounts on all investment income per accumulation unit earned during a given 30-day period, after
subtracting fees and expenses accrued during the period, assuming the selection of the Max 7 Enhanced
Death Benefit and the MGIB optional benefit rider. You should be aware that there is no guarantee
that the Liquid Assets Subaccount will have a positive or level return.

We may compare performance information for a subaccount to: (i) the Standard & Poor’s 500 Stock
Index, Dow Jones Industrial Average, Donoghue Money Market Institutional Averages, or any other
applicable market indices, (ii) other variable annuity separate accounts or other investment products
tracked by Lipper Analytical Services (a widely used independent research firm which ranks mutual funds
and other investment companies), or any other rating service, and (iii) the Consumer Price Index (measure
for inflation) to determine the real rate of return of an investment in the Contract. Our reports and
promotional literature may also contain other information including the ranking of any subaccount based
on rankings of variable annuity separate accounts or other investment products tracked by Lipper
Analytical Services or by similar rating services.

Performance information reflects only the performance of a hypothetical contract and should be
considered in light of other factors, including the investment objective of the investment portfolio and
market conditions. Please keep in mind that past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors
ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholder’s equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits include consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis of Presentation

ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (“ING USA” or the “Company,” as appropriate) is a stock life insurance company domiciled in the State of Iowa and provides financial products and services in the United States. ING USA is authorized to conduct its insurance business in all states, except New York, and in the District of Columbia.

The Company offers various insurance products, including immediate and deferred variable and fixed annuities. The Company’s annuity products are distributed by national wirehouses, regional securities firms, independent broker-dealers, banks, life insurance companies with captive agency sales forces, independent insurance agents, independent marketing organizations, and affiliated broker-dealers. The Company’s primary annuity customers are individual consumers.

Under FAS 157, the FASB clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. In support of this principle, FAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop such assumptions. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data. FAS 157 also requires separate disclosure of fair value measurements by level within the hierarchy and expanded disclosure of the effect on earnings for items measured using unobservable data.

FAS 157 was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2008. As a result of implementing FAS 157, the Company recognized $69.6, before tax, as an increase to Net income on the date of adoption related to the fair value measurements of investment contract guarantees. The impact of implementation was included in Interest credited and other benefits to contractowners on the Statements of Operations.

In October 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS No. 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active” (“FSP FAS 157-3”), which provides clarifying guidance on the application of FAS 157 to financial assets in a market that is not active and was effective upon issuance. FSP FAS 157-3 had no effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows upon adoption, as its guidance is consistent with that applied by the Company upon adoption of FAS 157.

The Company recognized no other adjustments to its financial statements related to the adoption of FAS 157, and new disclosures are included in the Financial Instruments footnote.

The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In February 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“FAS 159”), which allows a company to make an irrevocable election, on specific election dates, to measure eligible items at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The election to measure an item at fair value may be determined on an instrument by instrument basis, with certain exceptions. If the fair value option is elected, any upfront costs and fees related to the item will be recognized in earnings as incurred. Items eligible for the fair value option include:

§      Certain recognized financial assets and liabilities;
§      Rights and obligations under certain insurance contracts that are not financial instruments;
§      Host financial instruments resulting from the separation of an embedded nonfinancial derivative instrument from a nonfinancial hybrid instrument; and
§      Certain commitments.

FAS 159 was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2008. In implementing FAS 159, the Company elected not to take the fair value option for any eligible assets or liabilities in existence on January 1, 2008, or in existence at the date of these financial statements.

Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Contracts

On April 30, 2007, the FASB issued a FSP on FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 39, “Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Contracts” (“FSP FIN 39-1”), which permits a reporting entity to offset fair value amounts recognized for the right to reclaim or the obligation to return cash collateral against fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments under master netting arrangements. FSP FIN 39-1 had no effect on the financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows upon adoption by the Company on January 1, 2008, as it is the Company’s accounting policy not to offset such fair value amounts.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”), which creates a single model to address the accounting for the uncertainty in income tax positions recognized in a company’s financial statements. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement criteria that must be satisfied to recognize a financial statement benefit of tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, on an income tax return. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

FIN 48 was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2007. As a result of implementing FIN 48, the Company recognized a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $1.7 as a reduction to January 1, 2007 Retained earnings (deficit).

Accounting by Insurance Enterprises for Deferred Acquisition Costs in Connection With Modifications or Exchanges of Insurance Contracts

In September 2005, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) issued Statement of Position (“SOP”) 05-1, “Accounting by Insurance Enterprises for Deferred Acquisition Costs in Connection with Modifications or Exchanges of Insurance Contracts” (“SOP 05-1”), which states that when an internal replacement transaction results in a substantially changed contract, the unamortized deferred acquisition costs, unearned revenue liabilities, and deferred sales inducement assets, related to the replaced contract should not be deferred in connection with the new contract. Contract modifications that meet various conditions defined by SOP 05-1 and result in a new contract that is substantially unchanged from the replaced contract, however, should be accounted for as a continuation of the replaced contract.

C-11


ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

(A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

SOP 05-1 defines an internal replacement as a modification in product benefits, features, rights, or coverage, that occurs by the exchange of a contract for a new contract, by amendment, endorsement, or rider, to a contract, or by the election of a feature or coverage within a contract. SOP 05-1 applies to internal replacements made primarily to contracts defined by FAS No. 60, “Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises” (“FAS 60”), as short-duration and long-duration insurance contracts, and by FAS No. 97, “Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for Certain Long-Duration Contracts and for Realized Gains and Losses from the Sale of Investments” (“FAS 97”), as investment contracts.

SOP 05-1 was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2007, and is effective for internal replacements occurring on or after that date. As a result of implementing SOP 05-1, the Company recognized a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $4.8, before tax, or $3.1, net of $1.7 of income taxes, as a reduction to January 1, 2007 Retained earnings (deficit). In addition, the Company revised its accounting policy on the amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”) and value of business acquired (“VOBA”) to include internal replacements.

Disclosures about Credit Derivatives and Certain Guarantees

In September 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 133-1 and FIN No. 45-4, “Disclosures about Credit Derivatives and Certain Guarantees: An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and FASB Interpretation No. 45; and Clarification of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 161” (“FSP FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4”), which does the following:

§      Amends FAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 133”), requiring additional disclosures by sellers of credit derivatives;
§      Amends FASB Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” (“FIN 45”), requiring additional disclosure about the current status of the payment/performance risk of a guarantee; and
§      Clarifies the effective date of FAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“FAS 161”).

FSP FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4 was adopted by the Company on December 31, 2008. In implementing FSP FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4, the Company determined that its adoption had no financial statement impact.

C-12

The clarification in the FSP of the effective date of FAS 161 is consistent with the guidance in FAS 161 and the Company’s disclosure provided herein.

Disclosures by Public Entities (Enterprises) about Transfers of Financial Assets and Interests in Variable Interest Entities

In December, 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8, “Disclosures by Public Entities (Enterprises) about Transfers of Financial Assets and Interests in Variable Interest Entities” (“FSP FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8”), which requires additional disclosures regarding a transferor’s continuing involvement with financial assets transferred in a securitization or asset-backed financing arrangement and an enterprise’s involvement with variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and qualifying special purpose entities (“QSPEs”).

FSP FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8 was adopted by the Company on December 31, 2008. In implementing FSP FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8, the Company determined that its adoption has no financial statement impact. The Company does not have any QSPEs or continuing involvement with financial assets transferred in a securitization or asset-backed financing arrangement.

Amendments to Impairment Guidance

In January 2009, the FASB issued FSP Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 99-20-1, “Amendments to the Impairment Guidance of EITF Issue No. 99-20” (“FSP EITF 99-20-1”), which amends EITF 99-20, “Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased Beneficial Interests and Beneficial Interests That Continue to Be Held by a Transferor in Securitized Financial Assets” (“EITF 99-20”). FSP EITF 99-20-1 requires that an other-than-temporary impairment on investments that meet the criteria of EITF 99-20 be recognized as a realized loss through earnings when it is probable there has been an adverse change in the holder’s estimated cash flow, consistent with the impairment model in FAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.”

FSP EITF 99-20-1 was adopted by the Company on December 31, 2008, prospectively. In implementing FSP EITF 99-20-1, the Company determined there was a minimal effect on financial position, results of operations, and cash flows, as the structured securities held by the Company were highly rated at issue.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In March 2008, the FASB issued FAS 161, which requires enhanced disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, fair value amounts of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements, including:

§      How and why derivative instruments are used;
§      How derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FAS 133 and its related interpretations; and
§      How derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial statements.

The provisions of FAS 161 are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company is currently in the process of determining the impact of adoption of FAS 161 on its disclosures; however, as the pronouncement only pertains to additional disclosure, the Company has determined that the adoption of FAS 161 will have no impact on income, financial position or cash flows. In addition, the Company’s derivatives are generally not accounted for using hedge accounting treatment under FAS 133, as the Company has not historically sought hedge accounting treatment.

Business Combinations

In December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“FAS 141R”), which replaces FAS No. 141, “Business Combinations,” as issued in 2001. FAS 141R requires most identifiable assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interest, and goodwill, acquired in a business combination to be recorded at full fair value as of the acquisition date, even for acquisitions achieved in stages. In addition, the statement requires:

§      Acquisition-related costs to be recognized separately and generally expensed;
§      Non-obligatory restructuring costs to be recognized separately when the liability is incurred;
§      Contractual contingencies acquired to be recorded at acquisition-date fair values;
§      A bargain purchase, which occurs when the fair value of net assets acquired exceeds the consideration transferred plus any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, to be recognized as a gain; and
§      The nature and financial effects of the business combination to be disclosed.

FAS 141R also amends or eliminates various other authoritative literature.

C-14


ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

(A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

The provisions of FAS 141R are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008 for all business combinations occurring on or after that date. As such, this standard will impact any Company acquisitions that occur on or after January 1, 2009. Also, the Company will consider transition costs related to any acquisitions that may occur prior to January 1, 2009.

Equity Method Investment Accounting

In November 2008, the EITF reached consensus on EITF 08-6, “Equity Method Investment Accounting Considerations” (“EITF 08-6”), which requires, among other provisions, that:

§      Equity method investments be initially measured at cost;
§      Contingent consideration only be included in the initial measurement;
§      An investor recognize its share of any impairment charge recorded by the equity investee; and
§      An investor account for a share issuance by an equity investee as if the investor had sold a proportionate share of its investment;

The provisions of EITF 08-6 are effective in fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. As such, this standard will impact Company acquisitions or changes in ownership with regards to equity investments that occur on or after January 1, 2009. The Company is currently in the process of determining the impact of the other-than-temporary impairment provisions.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“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 reported results using those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial information to conform to the current year classifications. For 2007, the Company reclassified $250.0 from operating cash flows to financing cash flows in order to properly reflect all cash flows associated with the Company’s guaranteed investment contracts and associated facultative reinsurance.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, money market instruments, and other debt issues with a maturity of 90 days or less when purchased.

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

Investments

All of the Company’s fixed maturities and equity securities are currently designated as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value and unrealized capital gains (losses) on these securities are recorded directly in Shareholder’s equity, after adjustment for related changes in DAC, VOBA, and deferred income taxes.

Other-Than-Temporary-Impairments

The Company analyzes the general account investments to determine whether there has been an other-than-temporary decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis. Management considers the length of the time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost, the issuer’s financial condition and near-term prospects, future economic conditions and market forecasts, and the Company’s intent and ability to retain the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for recovery in fair value. If it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of a debt security will not be collected, an other-than-temporary impairment is considered to have occurred.

In addition, the Company invests in structured securities that meet the criteria of the EITF 99-20. Under EITF 99-20, a further determination of the required impairment is based on credit risk and the possibility of significant prepayment risk that restricts the Company’s ability to recover the investment. An impairment is recognized if the fair value of the security is less than amortized cost and there has been an adverse change in cash flow since the remeasurement date.

When a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, the individual security is written down to fair value, and the loss is recorded in Net realized capital gains (losses).

Purchases and Sales

Purchases and sales of fixed maturities and equity securities, excluding private placements, are recorded on the trade date. Purchases and sales of private placements and mortgage loans are recorded on the closing date.

Valuation

The fair values for the actively traded marketable fixed maturities are determined based upon the quoted market prices or dealer quotes. The fair values for marketable bonds without an active market are obtained through several commercial pricing services, which provide the estimated fair values. These services incorporate a variety of market observable information in their valuation techniques, including benchmark yields, broker-dealer quotes, credit quality, issuer spreads, bids, offers and other reference data. Valuations obtained from third party commercial pricing services are non-binding and are validated monthly through comparisons to internal pricing models, back testing to recent trades, and monitoring of trading volumes.

Fair values of privately placed bonds are determined using a matrix-based pricing model. The model considers the current level of risk-free interest rates, current corporate spreads, the credit quality of the issuer, and cash flow characteristics of the security. Also considered are factors such as the net worth of the borrower, the value of collateral, the capital structure of the borrower, the presence of guarantees, and the Company’s evaluation of the borrower’s ability to compete in their relevant market. Using this data, the model generates estimated market values which the Company considers reflective of the fair value of each privately placed bond.

The fair values for certain collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMO-Bs”) are determined by taking the average of broker quotes when more than one broker quote is provided. A few of the CMO-Bs are priced by the originating broker due to the complexity and unique characteristics of the asset.

The fair values for actively traded equity securities are based on quoted market prices.

Mortgage loans on real estate are reported at amortized cost, less impairment write-downs. If the value of any mortgage loan is determined to be impaired (i.e., when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement), the carrying value of the mortgage loan is reduced to either the present value of expected cash flows from the loan, discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or fair value of the collateral. If the loan is in foreclosure, the carrying value is reduced to the fair value of the underlying collateral, net of estimated costs to obtain and sell. The carrying value of the impaired loans is reduced by establishing a permanent write-down recorded in Net realized capital gains (losses).

The fair value of policy loans is equal to the carrying, or cash surrender, value of the loans. Policy loans are fully collateralized by the account value of the associated insurance contracts.

Short-term investments, consisting primarily of money market instruments and other fixed maturity issues purchased with an original maturity of 91 days to one year, are considered available-for-sale and are carried at fair value, which is based on quoted market prices.

Derivative instruments are reported at fair value primarily using the Company’s derivative accounting system. The system uses key financial data, such as yield curves, exchange rates, Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) 500 Index prices, and London Inter Bank Offered Rates (“LIBOR”), which are obtained from third party sources and uploaded into the system. For those derivatives that are unable to be valued by the accounting system, the Company utilizes values established by third party brokers.

The Company records liabilities, which can be either positive or negative, for annuity contracts containing guaranteed riders for guaranteed minimum accumulation benefits (“GMAB”) and guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits (“GMWB”) without life contingencies in accordance with FAS 133. The guarantee is treated as an embedded derivative and is required to be reported separately from the host variable annuity contract. The fair value of the obligation is calculated based on actuarial and capital market assumptions related to the projected cash flows, including benefits and related contract charges, over the anticipated life of the related contracts.

C-17


ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

(A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

The cash flow estimates are produced by using stochastic techniques under a variety of market return scenarios and other best estimate assumptions.

The Company also records for its fixed indexed annuities (“FIA”) contracts an embedded derivative liability for interest payments to contractholders above the minimum guaranteed interest rate, in accordance with FAS 133. The guarantee is treated as an embedded derivative and is required to be reported separately from the host contract. The fair value of the obligation is calculated based on actuarial and capital market assumptions related to the projected cash flows, including benefits and related contract charges, over the anticipated life of the related contracts. The cash flow estimates are produced by best estimate assumptions.

Repurchase Agreements

The Company engages in dollar repurchase agreements (“dollar rolls”) and repurchase agreements to increase the return on investments and improve liquidity. These transactions involve a sale of securities and an agreement to repurchase substantially the same securities as those sold. Company policies require a minimum of 95% of the fair value of securities pledged under dollar rolls and repurchase agreement transactions to be maintained as collateral. Cash collateral received is invested in fixed maturities, and the carrying value of the securities pledged in dollar rolls and repurchase agreement transactions is included in Securities pledged on the Balance Sheets. The repurchase obligation related to dollar rolls and repurchase agreements is included in Borrowed money on the Balance Sheets.

The Company also enters into reverse repurchase agreements. These transactions involve a purchase of securities and an agreement to sell substantially the same securities as those purchased. Company policies require a minimum of 102% of the fair value of securities pledged under reverse repurchase agreements to be pledged as collateral. Reverse repurchase agreements are included in Cash and cash equivalents on the Balance Sheets.

Securities Lending

The Company engages in securities lending whereby certain securities from its portfolio are loaned to other institutions for short periods of time. Initial collateral, primarily cash, is required at a rate of 102% of the market value of the loaned domestic securities. The collateral is deposited by the borrower with a lending agent, and retained and invested by the lending agent according to the Company’s guidelines to generate additional income. The market value of the loaned securities is monitored on a daily basis with additional collateral obtained or refunded as the market value of the loaned securities fluctuates.

Derivatives

The Company’s use of derivatives is limited mainly to hedging purposes to reduce the Company’s exposure to cash flow variability of assets and liabilities, interest rate risk, credit risk, and market risk. Generally, derivatives are not accounted for using hedge accounting treatment under FAS 133, as the Company has not historically sought hedge accounting treatment.

C-18


ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

(A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

The Company enters into interest rate, equity market, credit default, and currency contracts, including swaps, caps, floors, options and futures, to reduce and manage risks associated with changes in value, yield, price, cash flow, or exchange rates of assets or liabilities held or intended to be held, or to assume or reduce credit exposure associated with a referenced asset, index, or pool. The Company also utilizes options and futures on equity indices to reduce and manage risks associated with its annuity products. Open derivative contracts are reported as either Other investments or Other liabilities, as appropriate, on the Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair value of such derivatives are recorded in Net realized capital gains (losses) in the Statements of Operations.

The Company also has investments in certain fixed maturity instruments, and has issued certain retail annuity products, that contain embedded derivatives whose market value is at least partially determined by, among other things, levels of or changes in domestic and/or foreign interest rates (short-term or long-term), exchange rates, prepayment rates, equity markets, or credit ratings/spreads.

Embedded derivatives within fixed maturity instruments are included in Fixed maturities, available-for-sale, on the Balance Sheets, and changes in fair value are recorded in Net realized capital gains (losses) in the Statements of Operations.

Embedded derivatives within retail annuity products are included in Future policy benefits and claims reserves on the Balance Sheets, and changes in the fair value are recorded in Interest credited and other benefits to contractowners in the Statements of Operations.

Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs and Value of Business Acquired

General

DAC represents policy acquisition costs that have been capitalized and are subject to amortization. Such costs consist principally of certain commissions, underwriting, contract issuance, and agency expenses, related to the production of new and renewal business.

VOBA represents the outstanding value of in force business capitalized in purchase accounting when the Company was acquired and is subject to amortization. The value is based on the present value of estimated profits embedded in the Company’s contracts.

FAS 97 applies to universal life and investment-type products, such as fixed and variable deferred annuities. Under FAS 97, DAC and VOBA are amortized, with interest, over the life of the related contracts in relation to the present value of estimated future gross profits from investment, mortality, and expense margins, plus surrender charges. DAC related to GICs, however, is amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract.

C-19


ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

(A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

Internal Replacements

Contractowners may periodically exchange one contract for another, or make modifications to an existing contract. Beginning January 1, 2007, these transactions are identified as internal replacements and are accounted for in accordance with SOP 05-1.

Internal replacements that are determined to result in substantially unchanged contracts are accounted for as continuations of the replaced contracts. Any costs associated with the issuance of the new contracts are considered maintenance costs and expensed as incurred. Unamortized DAC and VOBA related to the replaced contracts continue to be deferred and amortized in connection with the new contracts. For deferred annuities, the estimated future gross profits of the new contracts are treated as revisions to the estimated future gross profits of the replaced contracts in the determination of amortization.

Internal replacements that are determined to result in contracts that are substantially changed are accounted for as extinguishments of the replaced contracts, and any unamortized DAC and VOBA related to the replaced contracts are written off to Net amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and value of business acquired in the Statements of Operations.

Unlocking

Changes in assumptions can have a significant impact on DAC and VOBA balances and amortization rates. Several assumptions are considered significant in the estimation of future gross profits associated with variable universal life and variable deferred annuity products. One of the most significant assumptions involved in the estimation of future gross profits is the assumed return associated with the variable account performance. To reflect the volatility in the equity markets, this assumption involves a combination of near-term expectations and long-term assumptions regarding market performance. The overall return on the variable account is dependent on multiple factors, including the relative mix of the underlying sub-accounts among bond funds and equity funds, as well as equity sector weightings. Other significant assumptions include estimated future hedging and guaranteed benefit costs, surrender and lapse rates, estimated interest spread, and estimated mortality.

Due to the relative size and sensitivity to minor changes in underlying assumptions of DAC and VOBA balances, the Company performs quarterly and annual analyses of DAC and VOBA for the annuity and life businesses, respectively. The DAC and VOBA balances are evaluated for recoverability.

At each evaluation date, actual historical gross profits are reflected, and estimated future gross profits and related assumptions are evaluated for continued reasonableness. Any adjustment in estimated profit requires that the amortization rate be revised (“unlocking”), retroactively to the date of the policy or contract issuance. The cumulative unlocking adjustment is recognized as a component of current period amortization. In general, sustained increases in investment, mortality, and expense margins, and thus estimated future profits, lower the rate of amortization. Sustained decreases in investment, mortality, and expense margins, and thus estimated future profits, however, increase the rate of amortization.

Reserves

Future policy benefits and claims reserves include reserves for deferred annuities and immediate annuities with and without life contingent payouts, universal and traditional life insurance contracts, and GICs. Generally, reserves are calculated using mortality and withdrawal rate assumptions based on relevant Company experience and are periodically reviewed against both industry standards and experience.

Reserves for deferred annuity investment contracts and immediate annuities without life contingent payouts are equal to cumulative deposits, less charges and withdrawals, plus credited interest thereon. Deferred annuity crediting rates and reserve interest rates varied by product up to 10.0% for 2008 and 2007, and 7.8% for 2006.

Reserves for individual immediate annuities with life contingent payout benefits are computed on the basis of assumed interest discount rate, mortality, and expenses, including a margin for adverse deviations. Such assumptions generally vary by annuity plan type, year of issue, and policy duration. For 2008, 2007, and 2006, immediate annuity reserve interest discount rates varied up to 8.0%.

Reserves for FIAs are computed in accordance with FAS 97, FAS 133, and FAS 157. Accordingly, the aggregate initial liability is equal to the deposit received, plus a bonus, if applicable, and is split into a host component and an embedded derivative component. Thereafter, the host liability accumulates at a set interest rate, and the embedded derivative liability is recognized at fair value, with the change in fair value recorded in the Statements of Operations.

Reserves for universal life products are equal to cumulative deposits, less withdrawals and charges, plus credited interest thereon. Reserves for traditional life insurance contracts represent the present value of future benefits to be paid to or on behalf of contractowners and related expenses, less the present value of future net premiums.

Under Statement of Position 03-1, “Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for Certain Nontraditional Long-Duration Contracts for Separate Accounts” (“SOP 03-1”), the Company calculates additional liabilities (“SOP 03-1 reserves”) for certain variable annuity guaranteed benefits and for universal life products with certain patterns of cost of insurance charges and certain other fees. The SOP 03-1 reserve recognized for such products is in addition to the liability previously held and recognizes the portion of contract assessments received in early years used to compensate the insurer for services provided in later years.

The Company calculates a benefit ratio for each block of business subject to SOP 03-1, and calculates an SOP 03-1 reserve by accumulating amounts equal to the benefit ratio multiplied by the assessments for each period, reduced by excess death benefits during the period. The SOP 03-1 reserve is accumulated at interest rates using rates consistent with the DAC model for the period. The calculated reserve includes a provision for universal life contracts with patterns of cost of insurance charges that produce expected gains from the insurance benefit function followed by losses from that function in later years.

C-21


ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

(A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

GMABs and GMWBs without life contingent payouts are considered to be derivatives under FAS 133 and FAS 157. The additional reserves for these guarantees are recognized at fair value through the Statements of Operations.

Reserves for GICs are calculated using the amount deposited with the Company, less withdrawals, plus interest accrued to the ending valuation date. Interest on these contracts is accrued by a predetermined index, plus a spread or a fixed rate, established at the issue date of the contract.

Sales Inducements

Sales inducements represent benefits paid to contractowners for a specified period that are incremental to the amounts the Company credits on similar contracts and are higher than the contract’s expected ongoing crediting rates for periods after the inducement. Sales inducements are amortized as a component of Interest credited and other benefits to contractowners using methodologies and assumptions consistent with those used for amortization of DAC.

Revenue Recognition

For universal life and most annuity contracts, charges assessed against contractowner funds for the cost of insurance, surrender, expenses, and other fees are recorded as revenue as charges are assessed. Other amounts received for these contracts are reflected as deposits and are not recorded as premium or revenue. Related policy benefits are recorded in relation to the associated premiums or gross profit so that profits are recognized over the expected lives of the contracts.

Premiums on the Statements of Operations primarily represent amounts received under traditional life insurance policies.

For GICs, deposits made to the Company are not recorded as revenue in the Statements of Operations, but are recorded directly to Future policy benefits and claims reserves on the Balance Sheets.

Separate Accounts

Separate account assets and liabilities generally represent funds maintained to meet specific investment objectives of contractowners who bear the investment risk, subject, in limited cases, to certain minimum guarantees. Investment income and investment gains and losses generally accrue directly to such contractowners. The assets of each account are legally segregated and are not subject to claims that arise out of any other business of the Company or its affiliates.

Separate account assets supporting variable options under variable annuity contracts are invested, as designated by the contractowner or participant (who bears the investment risk subject, in limited cases, to minimum guaranteed rates) under a contract, in shares of mutual funds that are managed by the Company or its affiliates, or in other selected mutual funds not managed by the Company or its affiliates.

Separate account assets and liabilities are carried at fair value and shown as separate captions in the Balance Sheets. Deposits, investment income, and net realized and unrealized capital gains (losses) of the separate accounts, however, are not reflected in the Statements of Operations (with the exception of realized and unrealized capital gains (losses) on the assets supporting the guaranteed interest option). The Statements of Cash Flows do not reflect investment activity of the separate accounts.

Assets and liabilities of separate account arrangements that do not meet the criteria in SOP 03-1 for separate presentation in the Balance Sheets (primarily guaranteed interest options), and revenue and expenses related to such arrangements, are consolidated in the financial statements with the general account. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, unrealized capital (losses) gains of $(249.2) and $21.1, respectively, after taxes, on assets supporting a guaranteed interest option are reflected in Shareholder’s equity.

Reinsurance

The Company utilizes reinsurance agreements to reduce its exposure to large losses in most aspects of its insurance business. Such reinsurance permits recovery of a portion of losses from reinsurers, although it does not discharge the primary liability of the Company as the direct insurer of the risks reinsured. The Company evaluates the financial strength of potential reinsurers and continually monitors the financial condition of reinsurers. Only those reinsurance recoverable balances deemed probable of recovery are reflected as assets on the Company’s Balance Sheets.

Participating Insurance

Participating business approximates 2.0% of the Company’s ordinary life insurance in force and 21.9% of life insurance premium income. The amount of dividends to be paid is determined annually by the Board of Directors. Amounts allocable to participating contractowners are based on published dividend projections or expected dividend scales. Dividends to participating policyholders of $13.7, $14.8, and $15.4, were incurred during the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company is taxed at regular corporate rates after adjusting income reported for financial statement purposes for certain items. Deferred income tax expenses (benefits) result from changes during the year in cumulative temporary differences between the tax basis and book basis of assets and liabilities.

The Company had investments with five issuers, other than obligations of the U.S. government and government agencies, with a carrying value in excess of 10.0% of the Company’s Shareholder’s equity at December 31, 2008. At December 31, 2007, the Company did not have any investments in a single issuer, other than obligations of the U.S. government and government agencies, with a carrying value in excess of 10.0% of the Company’s Shareholder’s equity.

At December 31, 2008 and 2007, fixed maturities with fair values of $22.3 billion and $11.2, respectively, were on deposit as required by regulatory authorities. The increase was due to unrestricted deposits of securities made to the State of Iowa.

The Company invests in various categories of collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) that are subject to different degrees of risk from changes in interest rates and, for CMOs that are not agency-backed, defaults. The principal risks inherent in holding CMOs are prepayment and extension risks related to dramatic decreases and increases in interest rates resulting in the prepayment of principal from the underlying mortgages, either earlier or later than originally anticipated. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, approximately 12.1% and 7.5%, respectively, of the Company’s CMO holdings were invested in those types of CMOs which are subject to more prepayment and extension risk than traditional CMOs, such as interest-only or principal-only strips.

The Company is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (“FHLB”) and is required to maintain a collateral deposit that backs funding agreements issued to the FHLB. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had $2,995.2 and $2,898.7, respectively, in non-putable funding agreements, including accrued interest, issued to the FHLB. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, assets with a market value of approximately $3,341.1 and $3,270.1, respectively, collateralized the funding agreements to the FHLB. Assets pledged to the FHLB are included in Fixed maturities, available-for-sale, in the Balance Sheets.

In conjunction with the January 2009 agreement with the Dutch State regarding the transfer of 80% of the Company's Alt-A residential mortgage backed securities (“Alt-A RMBS”), which included $375.1 in Alt-A RMBS pledged to the FHLB, the Company substituted the Alt-A RMBS assets pledged with other fixed maturities. By February 17, 2009, the Company recalled these Alt-A securities in order to implement the transaction with the Dutch State and reduced the funding agreements pro rata.

Transfer of Alt-A RMBS Participation Interest

On January 26, 2009, ING announced it reached an agreement, for itself and on behalf of certain ING affiliates including the Company, with the Dutch State on an Illiquid Assets Backup Facility (the “Back-up Facility”) covering 80% of ING’s Alt-A residential mortgage-backed securities (“Alt-A RMBS”). Under the terms of the Back-up Facility, a full credit risk transfer to the Dutch State will be realized on 80% of ING’s Alt-A RMBS owned by ING Bank, FSB and ING affiliates within ING Insurance Americas with a book value of $36.0 billion portfolio, including book value of $1.4 billion of the Alt-A RMBS portfolio owned by the Company (with respect to the Company’s portfolio, the “Designated Securities Portfolio”) (the “ING-Dutch State Transaction”). As a result of the risk transfer, the Dutch State will participate in 80% of any results of the ING Alt-A RMBS portfolio. The risk transfer to the Dutch State will take place at a discount of approximately 10% of par value. In addition, under the Back-up Facility, other fees will be paid both by the Company and the Dutch State. Each ING company participating in the ING-Dutch State Transaction, including the Company will remain the legal owner of 100% of its Alt-A RMBS portfolio and will remain exposed to 20% of any results on the portfolio. Subject to documentation and regulatory approvals, the ING-Dutch State Transaction is expected to close by the end of March 2009, with the affiliate participation conveyance and risk transfer to the Dutch State described in the succeeding paragraph to take effect as of January 26, 2009.

In order to implement that portion of the ING-Dutch State Transaction related to the Company’s Designated Securities Portfolio, the Company will enter into a participation agreement with its affiliates, ING Support Holding B.V. (“ING Support Holding”) and ING pursuant to which the Company will convey to ING Support Holding an 80% participation interest in its Designated Securities Portfolio and pay a periodic transaction fee, and will receive, as consideration for the participation, an assignment by ING Support Holding of its right to receive payments from the Dutch State under the Illiquid Assets Back-Up Facility related to the Company’s Designated Securities Portfolio among, ING, ING Support Holding and the Dutch State (the “Company Back-Up Facility”). Under the Company Back-Up Facility, the Dutch State will be obligated to pay certain periodic fees and make certain periodic payments with respect to the Company’s Designated Securities Portfolio, and ING Support Holding will be obligated to pay a periodic guarantee fee and make periodic payments to the Dutch State equal to the distributions it receives with respect to the 80% participation interest in the Company’s Designated Securities Portfolio.

In a second transaction, known as the Step 1 Cash Transfer, a portion of the Company’s Alt-A RMBS which has a book value of $27.9 will be sold for cash to an affiliate, Lion II Custom Investments LLC (“Lion II”). Immediately thereafter, Lion II will sell to ING Direct Bancorp the purchased securities (the “Step 2 Cash Transfer”). Contemporaneous with the Step 2 Cash Transfer, ING Direct Bancorp will include such purchased securities as part of its Alt-A RMBS portfolio sale to the Dutch State. Subject to documentation and regulatory approval, the Step 1 Cash Transfer is expected to close by the end of March 2009 contemporaneous with the closing of the ING-Dutch State Transaction.

Since the Company had the intent to sell a portion of its Alt-A RMBS through the 80% participation interest in its Designated Securities Portfolio or as part of the Step 1 Cash Transfer as of December 31, 2008, the Company recognized $56.9 in other-than-temporary impairments with respect to the 80% participation interest in its Designated Securities Portfolio that it expects to convey as part of the ING-Dutch State Transaction and the Step 1 Cash Transfer. The Company expects to reduce the unrealized loss balance in Accumulated other comprehensive loss included in Shareholder’s equity by approximately $400.0 and recognize a gain in the estimated range of $110.0 to $130.0 upon the closing of the ING-Dutch State Transaction and the Step 1 Cash Transfer.

Repurchase Agreements

The Company engages in dollar repurchase agreements (“dollar rolls”) and repurchase agreements to increase its return on investments and improve liquidity. These transactions involve a sale of securities and an agreement to repurchase substantially the same securities as those sold. Company policies require a minimum of 95% of the fair value of securities pledged under dollar rolls and repurchase agreement transactions to be maintained as collateral. Cash collateral received is invested in fixed maturities, and the offsetting collateral liability is included in Borrowed money on the Balance Sheets. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the carrying value of the securities pledged in dollar rolls and repurchase agreement transactions was $562.8 and $745.5, respectively. The carrying value of the securities pledged in dollar rolls and repurchase agreement transactions is included in Securities pledged on the Balance Sheets. The repurchase obligation related to dollar rolls and repurchase agreements totaled $482.2 and $711.9 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The repurchase obligation related to dollar rolls and repurchase agreements is included in Borrowed money on the Balance Sheets.

The Company also enters into reverse repurchase agreements. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company did not have any securities in reverse repurchase agreements.

The primary risk associated with short-term collateralized borrowings is that the counterparty will be unable to perform under the terms of the contract. The Company’s exposure is limited to the excess of the net replacement cost of the securities over the value of the short-term investments, an amount that was immaterial at December 31, 2008 and 2007. The Company believes the counterparties to the dollar rolls, repurchase, and reverse repurchase agreements are financially responsible and that the counterparty risk is minimal.

Securities Lending

The Company engages in securities lending whereby certain securities from its portfolio are loaned to other institutions for short periods of time. Initial collateral, primarily cash, is required at a rate of 102% of the market value of the loaned domestic securities. The collateral is deposited by the borrower with a lending agent, and retained and invested by the lending agent according to the Company’s guidelines to generate additional income. The market value of the loaned securities is monitored on a daily basis with additional collateral obtained or refunded as the market value of the loaned securities fluctuates. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the fair value of loaned securities was $125.4 and $123.1, respectively.

Unrealized Capital Losses

Unrealized capital losses in fixed maturities at December 31, 2008 and 2007, were primarily related to the effects of interest rate movement or changes in credit spreads on mortgage and other asset-backed securities. Mortgage and other asset-backed securities include U.S. government-backed securities, principal protected securities, and structured securities, which did not have an adverse change in cash flows. The following table summarizes the unrealized capital losses by duration and reason, along with the fair value of fixed maturities, including securities pledged to creditors, in unrealized capital loss positions at December 31, 2008 and 2007.

Of the unrealized capital losses aged more than twelve months, the average market value of the related fixed maturities is 75.7% of the average book value. In addition, this category includes 1,499 securities, which have an average quality rating of AA-. No other-than-temporary impairment loss was considered necessary for these fixed maturities as of December 31, 2008. The fair value of the Company’s fixed maturities declined $483.4, before tax and DAC, from December 31, 2008 through February 28, 2009, due to further widening of credit spreads. This decline in fair value includes $258.3 related to the Company’s investments in commercial mortgage-backed securities.

The remaining $658.4, $122.3, and $22.3, in write-downs for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively, are related to investments that the Company does not have the intent to retain for a period of time sufficient to allow for recovery in fair value.

The Company may sell securities during the period in which fair value has declined below amortized cost for fixed maturities or cost for equity securities. In certain situations new factors, including changes in the business environment, can change the Company’s previous intent to continue holding a security.

Net Investment Income

Sources of Net investment income were as follows for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006.

  2008  2007  2006 
Fixed maturities, available-for-sale  $ 1,361.0  $ 1,176.1  $ 1,009.7

Net Realized Capital Gains (Losses)

Net realized capital gains (losses) are comprised of the difference between the amortized cost of investments and proceeds from sale, and redemption, as well as losses incurred due to the other-than-temporary impairment of investments and changes in fair value of derivatives. The cost of the investment on disposal is determined based on specific identification of securities using the first-in, first-out method. Net realized capital gains (losses) on investments were as follows for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006.

  2008  2007                       2006   
Fixed maturities, available-for-sale  $ (975.9)  $ (100.3)  $ (43.8) 
Equity securities, available-for-sale  (52.9)  0.5    0.9 
Derivatives  (447.5)  (291.0)    (48.2) 
Other  (5.4)  (0.4)    0.7 
Net realized capital losses  $ (1,481.7)  $ (391.2)  $ (90.4) 
After-tax net realized capital losses  $ (963.1)  $ (254.3)  $ (58.8) 

Net realized capital losses increased for the year ended December 31, 2008, primarily due to higher losses on fixed maturities as a result of other-than-temporary impairments driven by the widening of credit spreads. In addition, derivative realized losses increased for the year ended December 31, 2008, driven by interest rate swaps due to lower LIBOR rates and by losses on call options due to the drop in equity markets. These losses were partially offset by gains on futures, which were also a result of poor equity market performance.

Proceeds from the sale of fixed maturities and equity securities, available-for-sale, and the related gross realized gains and losses were as follows for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006.

Fair Value Measurements

FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value, and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements.

Fair Value Hierarchy

The Company has categorized its financial instruments into a three level hierarchy based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique.

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on the Balance Sheets are categorized as follows:

§      Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market.
§      Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable either
  directly      or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
  Level      2 inputs include the following:
  a)      Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
  b)      Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets;
  c)      Inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable; and
  d)      Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data through correlation or other means.
§      Level 3 - Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and
  significant      to the overall fair value measurement. These valuations, whether derived
  internally      or obtained from a third party, use critical assumptions that are not widely
  available      to estimate market participant expectations in valuing the asset or liability.

The following table presents the Company’s hierarchy for its assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2008.

Excluding separate accounts assets for which the policyholder bears the risk, the Level 3 net assets and liabilities in relation to total net assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis totaled 10.0%.

Valuation of Financial Assets and Liabilities

The Company utilizes a number of valuation methodologies to determine the fair values of its financial assets and liabilities in conformity with the concepts of “exit price” and the fair value hierarchy as prescribed in FAS 157. Valuations are obtained from third party commercial pricing services, brokers and industry-standard, vendor-provided software that models the value based on market observable inputs. The valuations obtained from the brokers are non-binding. The valuations are reviewed and validated monthly through comparisons to internal pricing models, back testing to recent trades, and monitoring of trading volumes.

All valuation methods and assumptions are validated at least quarterly to ensure the accuracy and relevance of the fair values. There were no material changes to the valuation methods or assumptions used to determine fair values.

The following valuation methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of the following financial instruments:

Fixed maturities, available-for-sale: The fair values for the actively traded marketable bonds are determined based upon the quoted market prices or dealer quotes and are classified as Level 1 assets. The fair values for marketable bonds without an active market, excluding subprime and Alt-A mortgage-backed securities, are obtained through several commercial pricing services, which provide the estimated fair values, and are classified as Level 2 assets. These services incorporate a variety of market observable information in their valuation techniques, including benchmark yields, broker-dealer quotes, credit quality, issuer spreads, bids, offers and other reference data. Valuations obtained from third party commercial pricing services are non-binding and are validated monthly through comparisons to internal pricing models, back testing to recent trades, and monitoring of trading volumes.

Fair values of privately placed bonds are determined using a matrix-based pricing model and are classified as Level 2 assets. The model considers the current level of risk-free interest rates, current corporate spreads, the credit quality of the issuer, and cash flow characteristics of the security. Also considered are factors such as the net worth of the borrower, the value of collateral, the capital structure of the borrower, the presence of guarantees, and the Company’s

C-34

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

evaluation of the borrower’s ability to compete in their relevant market. Using this data, the model generates estimated market values which the Company considers reflective of the fair value of each privately placed bond.

The fair values for certain collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMO-Bs”) are determined by taking the average of broker quotes when more than one broker quote is provided. A few of the CMO-Bs are priced by the originating broker due to the complexity and unique characteristics of the asset. Due to the lack of corroborating evidence to support a higher level, these bonds are classified as Level 3 assets.

Trading activity for the Company’s Residential Mortgage-backed Securities (“RMBS”), particularly subprime and Alt-A mortgage-backed securities, has been declining during 2008 as a result of the dislocation of the credit markets. During 2008, the Company continued to obtain pricing information from commercial pricing services and brokers. However, the pricing for subprime and Alt-A mortgage-backed securities did not represent regularly occurring market transactions since the trading activity declined significantly in the second half of 2008. As a result, the Company concluded in the second half of 2008 that the market for subprime and Alt-A mortgage-backed securities was inactive. The Company did not change its valuation procedures, which are consistent with those used for Level 2 marketable bonds without an active market, as a result of determining that the market was inactive. However, the Company determined that the classification within the valuation hierarchy should be transferred to Level 3 due to market inactivity.

At December 31, 2008, the fixed maturities valued using unadjusted broker quotes totaled $10,482.3.

Equity securities, available-for-sale: Fair values of these securities are based upon quoted market price and are classified as Level 1 assets.

Cash and cash equivalents, Short-term investments, and Short-term investments under securities loan agreement: The carrying amounts for cash reflect the assets’ fair values. The fair values for cash equivalents and short-term investments are determined based on quoted market prices. These assets are classified as Level 1.

Assets held in separate accounts: Assets held in separate accounts are reported at the quoted fair values of the underlying investments in the separate accounts. Mutual funds, short-term investments and cash are based upon a quoted market price and are classified as Level 1.

Other financial instruments reported as assets and liabilities: The carrying amounts for these financial instruments (primarily derivatives) reflect the fair value of the assets and liabilities. Derivatives are carried at fair value (on the Balance Sheets), which is determined using the Company’s derivative accounting system in conjunction with observable key financial data from third party sources or through values established by third party brokers. Counterparty credit risk is considered and incorporated in the Company’s valuation process through counterparty credit rating requirements and monitoring of overall exposure. It is the Company’s policy to deal only with investment grade counterparties with a credit rating of A- or better. The Company obtains a key input into the valuation model for puts, calls, and futures from one

C-35


ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

third party broker. Because the input is not received from multiple brokers, these fair values are not deemed to be calculated based on market observable inputs, and, therefore, these instruments are classified as Level 3. However, all other derivative instruments are valued based on market observable inputs and are classified as Level 2.

Investment contract guarantees: The Company records liabilities, which can be either positive or negative, for annuity contracts containing guaranteed riders for GMABs and GMWBs without life contingencies in accordance with FAS 133. The guarantee is treated as an embedded derivative and is required to be reported separately from the host variable annuity contract. The fair value of the obligation is calculated based on actuarial and capital market assumptions related to the projected cash flows, including benefits and related contract charges, over the anticipated life of the related contracts. The cash flow estimates are produced by using stochastic techniques under a variety of market return scenarios and other best estimate assumptions.

The Company also records for its FIA contracts an embedded derivative liability for interest payments to contractholders above the minimum guaranteed interest rate, in accordance with FAS 133. The guarantee is treated as an embedded derivative and is required to be reported separately from the host contract. The fair value of the obligation is calculated based on actuarial and capital market assumptions related to the projected cash flows, including benefits and related contract charges, over the anticipated life of the related contracts. The cash flow estimates are produced by best estimate assumptions.

Nonperformance risk for investment contract guarantees contains adjustments to the fair values of these contract liabilities related to the current credit standing of ING and the Company based on credit default swaps with similar term to maturity and priority of payment. The ING credit default swap spread is applied to the discount factors for FIAs and the risk-free rates for GMABs and GMWBs in the Company’s valuation models in order to incorporate credit risk into the fair values of these investment contract guarantees. As of December 31, 2008, the credit ratings of ING and the Company increased by approximately 185 basis points during the year, which resulted in substantial changes in the valuation of the reserves for all investment contract guarantees.

The following disclosures are made in accordance with the requirements of FAS No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“FAS 107”). FAS 107 requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument.

FAS 107 excludes certain financial instruments, including insurance contracts, and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

The following valuation methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of the following financial instruments for purposes of FAS 107 disclosures:

Mortgage loans on real estate: The fair values for mortgage loans on real estate are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses and rates currently being offered in the marketplace for similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings. Loans with similar characteristics are aggregated for purposes of the calculations.

Policy loans: The fair value of policy loans is equal to the carrying, or cash surrender, value of the loans. Policy loans are fully collateralized by the account value of the associated insurance contracts.

Deposits from affiliates: Fair value is estimated based on the fair value of the liabilities for the account values of the underlying contracts, plus the fair value of the unamortized ceding allowance based on the present value of the projected release of the ceding allowance, discounted at risk-free rates, plus a credit spread.

Investment contract liabilities (included in Future policy benefits and claims reserves):

With a fixed maturity: Fair value is estimated by discounting cash flows, including associated expenses for maintaining the contracts, at rates which are market risk-free rates augmented by credit spreads on current Company debt or AA insurance company debt. The augmentation is present to account for non-performance risk. A margin for non-financial risks associated with the contracts is also included.

Without a fixed maturity: Fair value is estimated as the mean present value of stochastically modeled cash flows associated with the contract liabilities relevant to both the contractholder and to the Company. Here, the stochastic valuation scenario set is consistent with current market parameters, and discount is taken using stochastically evolving short risk-free rates in the scenarios augmented by credit spreads on current Company debt. The augmentation in the discount is present to account for non-performance risk. Margins for non-financial risks associated with the contract liabilities are also included.

Notes to affiliates: Estimated fair value of the Company’s notes to affiliates is based upon discounted future cash flows using a discount rate approximating the current market value.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on available market information and judgments about various financial instruments, such as estimates of timing and amounts of future cash flows. Such estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument, nor do they consider the tax impact of the realization of unrealized capital gains (losses). In many cases, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets, nor can the disclosed value be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments. In evaluating the Company’s management of interest rate, price, and liquidity risks, the fair values of all assets and liabilities should be taken into consideration, not only those presented above.

Level 3 Financial Instruments

The fair values of certain assets and liabilities are determined using prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement (i.e., Level 3 as defined by FAS 157). These valuations, whether derived internally or obtained from a third party, use critical assumptions that are not widely available to estimate market participant expectations in valuing the asset or liability. In light of the methodologies employed to obtain the fair values of financial assets and liabilities classified as Level 3, additional information is presented below, with particular attention addressed to

changes in derivatives, FIAs, and GMWBs and GMABs due to their impacts on the Company’s results of operations.

The following table summarizes the changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 assets and liabilities for the year ended December 31, 2008.

  Fixed maturities,          Investment

               Transfer in (out) of Level 3  1,205.4    (106.9)    -    -   
Balance at December 31, 2008  $ 2,589.6    $ 10.0    $ (638.9)  $ (153.0)   

(1)      This amount is included in Net realized capital gains (losses) on the Statements of Operations.
(2)      The amounts in this line are included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Balance Sheets.
(3)      This amount is included in Net realized capital gains (losses) on the Statements of Operations and contains unrealized gains (losses) on Level 3 derivatives held at December 31, 2008. All gains and losses on Level 3 assets are classified as realized gains (losses) for the purpose of this disclosure because it is impracticable to track realized and unrealized gains (losses) separately by security.
(4)      These amounts are included in Interest credited and other benefits to contractowners on the Statements of Operations. All gains and losses on Level 3 liabilities are classified as realized gains (losses) for the purpose of this disclosure because it is impracticable to track realized and unrealized gains (losses) separately on a contract-by-contract basis.

For the year ended December 31, 2008, the decline in the fair values of the FIA reserves was partially offset by a decline in the value of Level 3 derivatives that hedge the FIA exposure and the increase in the reserves for GMWBs and GMABs. The gains on the FIA embedded derivatives and the losses on the GMWBs ad GMABs were primarily driven by unfavorable equity market performance and changes in interest rates during 2008. In addition, derivatives experienced losses related to unfavorable equity market performance, resulting in a decline in the fair values of these assets. For the year ended December 31, 2008, the net realized gains attributable to credit risk were $117.0. The net unrealized capital losses related to fixed maturities were driven by the widening of credit spreads.

During 2008, the Company determined that the classification within the valuation hierarchy related to the subprime and Alt-A mortgage-backed securities within the RMBS portfolio should be changed due to market inactivity. This change is presented as transfers into Level 3 in the table above and discussed in more detail in the previous disclosure regarding RMBS.

           for the purchase or sale of credit protection. In the           
           event of a default on the underlying credit exposure,           
           the Company will either receive an additional           
           payment (purchased credit protection) or will be

Futures           
Futures contracts are used to hedge against a decrease           
           in certain equity indices. Such decrease may result           
           in a decrease in variable annuity account values,           
           which would increase the possibility of the Company           
           incurring an expense for guaranteed benefits in           
           excess of account values. A decrease in variable           
           annuity account values would also result in lower           
           fee income. A decrease in equity markets may also           
           negatively impact the Company's investment in           
           equity securities. The futures income would           
           serve to offset these effects. Futures contracts           
           are also used to hedge against an increase           
           in certain equity indices. Such increase may result           
           in increased payments to contract holders of fixed           
           indexed annuity contracts, and the futures income           
           would serve to offset this increased expense. The           
           underlying reserve liabilities are valued under           
           either SOP 03-1 or FAS 133 and FAS 157 (see           
           discussion under “Reserves” section) and the change           
           in reserve liability is recorded in Interest credited and           
           other benefits to contractowners. The gain or loss on           
           futures is recorded in Net realized capital gains (losses).  2,593.9  1,584.6  (35.2)    (6.4)

           offset this increased expense. Put options are used           
           to hedge the liability associated with embedded           
           derivatives in certain variable annuity contracts.           
           Both the options and the embedded derivative           
           reserve are carried at fair value. The change in value           
           of the options are recorded in Net realized capital           
           gains (losses); the change in value of the embedded

Credit Default Swaps

The Company has entered into various credit default swaps to assume credit exposure to certain assets that the Company does not own. Credit default swaps involve a transfer of credit risk from one party to another in exchange for periodic payments. These instruments are typically written for a maturity period of five years and do not contain recourse provisions, which would enable the seller to recover from third parties. The Company’s collateral positions are tracked by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”). To the extent cash collateral was received, it was included in the Collateral held, including payables under securities loan agreement on the Balance Sheets and was reinvested in short-term investments. The source of non-cash collateral posted was investment grade bonds of the entity. Collateral held is used in accordance with the Credit Support Annex (“CSA”) to satisfy any obligations. In the event of a default on the underlying credit exposure, the Company will either receive an additional payment (purchased credit protection) or will be required to make an additional payment (sold credit protection) equal to the notional value of the swap contract. At December 31, 2008, the fair value of credit default swaps of $12.7 and $124.8 was included in Other investments and Other liabilities, respectively, on the Balance Sheets. At December 31,

2007, the fair value of credit default swaps of $8.5 and $30.6 was included in Other investments and Other liabilities, respectively, on the Balance Sheets. As of December 2008, the maximum potential future exposure to the Company on the sale of credit protection under credit default swaps was $143.3.

Embedded Derivative in Credit-Linked Note

The Company owns a 3-year credit-linked note arrangement, whereby the Company agrees to reimburse the guaranteed party upon payment default of the referenced obligation. Upon such default, the Company will reimburse the guaranteed party for the loss under the reference obligation, and the Company receives that reference obligation in settlement. The Company can then seek recovery of any losses under the agreement by sale or collection of the received reference obligation. As of December 31, 2008, the maximum potential future exposure to the Company under the guarantee was $32.5.

Variable Interest Entities

The Company holds VIEs for investment purposes in the form of private placement securities, structured securities, securitization transactions, and limited partnerships. Consolidation of these investments in the Company’s financial statements is not required, as the Company is not the primary beneficiary for any of these VIEs. Rather, the VIEs are accounted for using the cost or equity method of accounting. Investments in limited partnerships are included in Limited partnerships/corporations on the Balance Sheets.

Analysis of DAC and VOBA - Annuity Products

The increase in Net amortization of DAC and VOBA in 2008 compared to 2007 was primarily due to unfavorable separate account performance during 2008 which caused a significant acceleration of variable annuity DAC amortization, as a result of lower projections of fee income. In addition, this unfavorable performance required the Company to adjust its future gross profit projections for variable annuity hedging costs and guaranteed benefit costs, which also increased amortization.

The increase in Net amortization of DAC and VOBA in 2007 compared to 2006 is due in part to a $67.0 change in estimate recorded during the fourth quarter of 2007. This change resulted from refinements of the DAC model, partially offset by favorable unlocking of mutual fund and mortality and persistency unlocking.

5.      Dividend Restrictions and Shareholder’s Equity
  The      Company’s ability to pay dividends to its parent is subject to the prior approval of the State
  of      Iowa Insurance Division (the “Division”) for payment of any dividend, which, when
  combined      with other dividends paid within the preceding twelve months, exceeds the greater of
  (1)      ten percent (10.0%) of the Company’s statutory surplus at the prior year end or (2) the
  Company’s      prior year statutory net gain from operations.
  During      2008, the Company paid its Parent a cash return of capital distribution in the amount of
  $900.0.      During 2007, the Company did not pay any dividends or return of capital distributions
  on      its common stock to its Parent. During 2006, the Company paid $170.0 in a return of capital
  distribution      to its Parent.
  During      2008, the Company received a $1.1 billion capital contribution from its Parent. During
  2007,      the Company received $150.0 in capital contributions from its Parent. During 2006, the
  Company      did not receive any capital contributions from its Parent.
  On      November 12, 2008, ING issued to the Dutch State non-voting Tier 1 securities for a total
  consideration      of Euro 10 billion. On February 24, 2009, $2.2 billion was contributed to direct
  and      indirect insurance company subsidiaries of ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc. (“ING
  AIH”),      of which $835.0 was contributed to the Company. The contribution was comprised of
  the      proceeds from the investment by the Dutch government and the redistribution of currently
  existing      capital within ING.
  The      Division recognizes as net income and capital and surplus those amounts determined in
  conformity      with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Department,
  which      differ in certain respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United
  States.      Statutory net income (loss) was $(831.4), $(40.1), and $(1.6), for the years ended
  December      31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively. Statutory capital and surplus was $1,872.7
  and      $2,552.6 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. As specifically permitted by

C-46


ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

statutory accounting practices, statutory surplus as of December 31, 2008 includes the impact of the $835.0 capital contribution received on February 24, 2009.

During 2008, the Company received a permitted practice regarding deferred income taxes, which modified the accounting prescribed by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners by increasing the realization period for deferred tax assets from one year to three years and increasing the asset recognition limit from 10% to 15% of adjusted statutory capital and surplus. This permitted practice increased admitted assets and statutory surplus by $120.7 for the year ended December 31, 2008. This permitted practice expires on December 15, 2009. The benefits of this permitted practice may not be considered by the Company when determining surplus available for dividends. This permitted practice had no impact on net income. The Company’s risk-based capital would not have triggered a regulatory event without the benefit of this permitted practice.

The Division also has the ability to ease certain reserving requirements at its discretion. Due to the reduction in liquidity and the availability of letters of credit confirming banks, the Department allowed the Company to accept unconfirmed letters of credit for reinsurance transactions. This allowed the Company to take the full reserve relief for reinsurance transactions with unconfirmed letters of credit. This reserve relief is available for the period from December 31, 2008 through July 1, 2009 and is not a permitted practice.

6. Additional Insurance Benefits and Minimum Guarantees

Under SOP 03-1, the Company calculates SOP 03-1 reserves for certain guaranteed benefits and for universal life products with certain patterns of cost of insurance charges and certain other fees.

The following assumptions and methodology were used to determine the guaranteed minimum death benefits (“GMDB”) SOP 03-1 reserve at December 31, 2008.

                                       Area  Assumptions/Basis for Assumptions 
Data used  Based on 100 investment performance scenarios stratified based on 
  10,000 random generated scenarios 
Mean investment performance  8.125% 
Volatility  18.0% 
Mortality  1999 and prior issues – 75.0%, 75.0%, 75.0%, 80.0%, grading to 100% 
  from age 80 to 120, of the 90-95 ultimate mortality table for standard, 
  ratchet, rollup, and combination rollup and ratchet, respectively. 
  2000 and later issues – 55.0%, 55.0%, 65.0%, 65.0%, grading to 100% 
  from age 80 to 120, of the 90-95 ultimate mortality table for standard, 
  ratchet, rollup, and combination rollup and ratchet, respectively. 
Lapse rates  Vary by contract type and duration; range between 1.0% and 40.0% 
Discount rates  5.5%, based on the portfolio earned rate of the general account

The assumptions used for calculating the additional guaranteed minimum income benefits (“GMIB”) and Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal for Life Benefit (LifePay and LifePay Plus) liabilities at December 31, 2008, are consistent with those used for the calculating the additional GMDB liability. In addition, the calculation of the GMIB liability assumes dynamic surrenders and dynamic annuitization reflecting the extent to which the benefit, at the time of payment, has a positive value.

The separate account liabilities subject to SOP 03-1 for minimum guaranteed benefits, and the additional liabilities recognized related to minimum guarantees, by type, as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the paid and incurred amounts by type for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, were as follows:

The aggregate fair value of equity securities, including mutual funds, supporting separate accounts with additional insurance benefits and minimum investment return guarantees as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $34.1 billion and $44.5 billion, respectively.

7.      Sales Inducements
  During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company capitalized and amortized $106.9 and $229.7, respectively, of sales inducements. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company capitalized and amortized $135.4 and $120.2, respectively, of sales inducements. The unamortized balance of capitalized sales inducements, net of unrealized capital gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities, was $624.3 and $645.4 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
8.      Income Taxes
  The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return with ING AIH, an affiliate, and certain other subsidiaries of ING AIH. The Company is a party to a federal tax allocation agreement with ING AIH and its subsidiaries that are part of the group, whereby ING AIH charges its subsidiaries for federal taxes each subsidiary would have incurred were it not a member of the consolidated group and credits each subsidiary for losses at the statutory federal tax rate.

Income tax expense (benefit) consisted of the following for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006.

Valuation allowances are provided when it is considered unlikely that deferred tax assets will be realized. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had a tax valuation allowance of $374.0 and $0, respectively, related to realized capital losses, which is included in Net Income (Loss). The valuation allowance includes $81.4 related to impairments of securities designated in the ING-Dutch State Transaction, which was established pending uncertainties regarding the closing of the transaction. Additionally, at December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had a tax valuation allowance of $29.8 and $46.9, respectively, related to unrealized capital losses, which is included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). The Company also established a $5.1 tax valuation allowance against foreign tax credits, the benefit of which is uncertain.

Tax Sharing Agreement

The Company had a receivable from ING AIH of $321.1 and a payable to ING AIH of $40.7 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, for federal income taxes under the intercompany tax sharing agreement.

See Related Party Transactions footnote for more information.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

Reconciliations of the change in the unrecognized income tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 are as follows:

  2008  2007 
Balance at January 1  $ 66.4  $ 61.5 
Additions for tax positions related to the current year  7.8  6.9 
Additions for tax positions related to prior years  0.7  - 
Reductions for tax positions related to prior years  (9.6)  (2.0) 
Reductions for settlements with taxing authorities  (0.4)  - 
Balance at December 31  $ 64.9  $ 66.4 

The Company had $47.3 of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2008 that would affect the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized.

Interest and Penalties

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in Current income taxes and Income tax expense on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statement of Operations, respectively. The Company had accrued interest of $4.4 as of December 31, 2008 and $4.7 as of December 31, 2007. The decrease in accrued interest during the year ended December 31, 2008 primarily relates to the settlement of the 2003 IRS audit.

Tax Regulatory Matters

In the first quarter of 2008, the IRS finalized the audit of tax year 2003. The 2003 settlement did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position. The Company is currently under audit by the IRS for tax years 2002 and 2004 through 2008, and is expected that the examination of these years will be finalized within the next twelve months. Upon finalization of the IRS examination it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by up to $22.9. The timing of the payment of the remaining allowance of $42.0 cannot be reliably estimated.

On September 25, 2007, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2007-61, which announced its intention to issue regulations with respect to certain computational aspects of the dividend received deduction (“DRD”) on separate account assets held in connection with variable annuity and life insurance contracts. Revenue Ruling 2007-61 suspended Revenue Ruling 2007-54 issued in August 2007 that purported to change accepted industry and IRS interpretations of the statutes governing these computational questions. Any regulations that the IRS ultimately proposes for issuance in this area will be subject to public notice and comment, at which time insurance companies and other members of the public will have the opportunity to raise legal and practical questions about the content, scope and application of such regulations. As a result, the ultimate timing, substance, and effective date of any such regulations are unknown, but they could result in the elimination of some or all of the separate account DRD tax benefit that the Company receives.

Under prior law, life insurance companies were allowed to defer from taxation a portion of income. Prior to 2006, deferred income of $14.4 was accumulated in the Policyholder’s Surplus Account and would only become taxable under certain conditions, which management believed to be remote. In 2004, Congress passed the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, allowing certain tax-free distributions from the Policyholders’ Surplus Account during 2005 and 2006. During 2006, the Company made a return of capital distribution of $170.0, which eliminated the $14.4 balance in the Policyholders’ Surplus Account and, therefore, any potential tax on the accumulated balance.

9. Benefit Plans

Defined Benefit Plan

ING North America Insurance Corporation (“ING North America”) sponsors the ING Americas Retirement Plan (the “Retirement Plan”), effective as of December 31, 2001. Substantially all employees of ING North America and its affiliates (excluding certain employees) are eligible to participate, including the Company’s employees. However, effective January 1, 2009, the Retirement Plan was amended to provide that anyone hired or rehired by the Company on or after January 1, 2009, would not be eligible to participate in the Plan. The Retirement Plan was amended and restated effective July 1, 2008 related to the admission of employees from the acquisition of CitiStreet LLC (“CitiStreet”) by Lion, and ING North America filed a request for a determination letter on the qualified status of the Plan.

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

The Retirement Plan is a tax-qualified defined benefit plan, the benefits of which are guaranteed (within certain specified legal limits) by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC”). As of January 1, 2002, each participant in the Retirement Plan (except for certain specified employees) earns a benefit under a final average compensation formula. Subsequent to December 31, 2001, ING North America is responsible for all Retirement Plan liabilities. The costs allocated to the Company for its employees’ participation in the Retirement Plan were $10.8, $13.0, and $17.1, for the years ended 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively, and are included in Operating expenses in the Statements of Operations.

Defined Contribution Plan

ING North America sponsors the ING Savings Plan and ESOP (the “Savings Plan”). Substantially all employees of ING North America and its affiliates (excluding certain employees) are eligible to participate, including the Company’s employees other than Company agents. The Savings Plan is a tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan, which includes an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) component. The Savings Plan was amended and restated effective July 1, 2008 related to the admission of employees from the acquisition of CitiStreet by Lion, and ING North America filed a request for a determination letter on the qualified status of the Plan. Savings Plan benefits are not guaranteed by the PBGC. The Savings Plan allows eligible participants to defer into the Savings Plan a specified percentage of eligible compensation on a pre-tax basis. ING North America matches such pre-tax contributions, up to a maximum of 6.0% of eligible compensation. Matching contributions are subject to a 4-year graded vesting schedule, although certain specified participants are subject to a 5-year graded vesting schedule. All contributions made to the Savings Plan are subject to certain limits imposed by applicable law. Pre-tax charges to operations of the Company for the Savings Plan were $5.6, $4.9, and $4.6, for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively, and are included in Operating expenses in the Statements of Operations.

Stock Option and Share Plans

ING sponsors the ING Group Long Term Equity Ownership Plan (“leo”), which provides employees of the Company who are selected by the ING Board of Directors to be granted options and/or performance shares. The terms applicable to an award under leo are set out in an award agreement which is signed by the participant when he or she accepts the award.

Options granted under leo are nonqualified options on ING shares in the form of American Depository Receipts (“ADRs”). Leo options have a ten (10) year term and vest three years from the grant date. Options awarded under leo may vest earlier in the event of the participant’s death, permanent disability or retirement. Retirement for purposes of leo means a participant terminates service after attaining age 55 and completing 5 years of service. Early vesting in all or a portion of a grant of options may also occur in the event the participant is terminated due to redundancy or business divestiture. Unvested options are generally subject to forfeiture when a participant voluntarily terminates employment or is terminated for cause (as defined in leo). Upon vesting, participants generally have up to seven years in which to exercise their vested options. A shorter exercise period applies in the event of termination due to redundancy, business divestiture, voluntary termination or termination for cause. An option gives the

C-53


ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company

(A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

recipient the right to purchase an ING share in the form of ADRs at a price equal to the fair market value of one ING share on the date of grant. On exercise, participant’s have three options (i) retain the shares and remit a check for applicable taxes due on exercise, (ii) request the administrator to remit a cash payment for the value of the options being exercised, less applicable taxes, or (iii) retain some of the shares and have the administrator liquidate sufficient shares to satisfy the participant’s tax obligation. The share price is in Euros and converted to U.S. dollars, as determined by ING.

Awards of performance shares may also be made under leo. Performance shares are a contingent grant of ING stock and on vesting, the participant has the right to receive a cash amount equal to the closing price per ING share on the Euronext Amsterdam Stock Market on the vesting date times the number of vested Plan shares. Performance shares generally vest three years from the date of grant, with the amount payable based on ING’s share price on the vesting date. Payments made to participants on vesting are based on the performance targets established in connection with leo and payments can range from 0% to 200% of target. Performance is based on ING’s total shareholder return relative to a peer group as determined at the end of the vesting period. To vest, a participant must be actively employed on the vesting date, although vesting will continue to occur in the event of the participant’s death, disability or retirement. If a participant is terminated due to redundancy or business divestiture, vesting will occur but in only a portion of the award. Unvested shares are generally subject to forfeiture when an employee voluntarily terminates employment or is terminated for cause (as defined in leo). Upon vesting, participants have three options (i) retain the shares and remit a check for applicable taxes due on exercise, (ii) request the administrator to remit a cash payment for the value of the shares, less applicable taxes, or (iii) retain some of the shares and have the administrator liquidate sufficient shares to satisfy the participant’s tax obligation. The amount is converted from Euros to U.S. dollars based on the daily average exchange rate between the Euro and the U.S. dollar, as determined by ING.

The Company recognized compensation expense for the leo options and performance shares of $5.3, $4.7, and $7.4, for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively.

For leo, the Company recognized tax benefits of $0.7 in 2008, $2.5 in 2007, and minimal tax benefits in 2006.

Other Benefit Plans

In addition to providing retirement plan benefits, the Company, in conjunction with ING North America, provides certain supplemental retirement benefits to eligible employees and health care and life insurance benefits to retired employees and other eligible dependents. The supplemental retirement plan includes a non-qualified defined benefit pension plan and a non-qualified defined contribution plan, which means all benefits are payable from the general assets of the Company. The post-retirement health care plan is contributory, with retiree contribution levels adjusted annually. The life insurance plan provides a flat amount of noncontributory coverage and optional contributory coverage. The benefits charges allocated to the Company related to all of these plans for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, were $1.3, $0.6, and $1.3, respectively.

Reinsurance Agreements

Automatic Reinsurance Agreement

Effective June 30, 2008, ING USA entered into an automatic reinsurance agreement with its affiliate, Security Life of Denver International Limited (“SLDI”). Under the terms of the agreement, ING USA ceded to SLDI 100% of the benefits guaranteed under specific variable annuity guaranteed living benefit riders (the “Covered Benefits”) attached to certain variable annuity contracts issued by ING USA on or after January 1, 2000 (the “Contracts”). ING USA paid SLDI initial consideration of $665.8. Thereafter, ING USA will pay (i) new business consideration equal to 1.62% of premiums received from contractholders on the Contracts and (ii) a base premium equal to the actual fees paid by contractholders for the Covered Benefits. Under the terms of the agreement, SLDI is required to provide ING USA security for ING USA’s full statutory reserve credit for reinsurance by providing a letter of credit to ING USA or establishing a trust for its benefit, or a combination of a letter of credit and assets in trust. SLDI has provided ING USA with letters of credit in the aggregate amount of $960.0, with $319.0 issued under a letter of credit facility with its affiliate, ING Bank N.V., while the remainder resides with three separate third party letter of credit facilities as of December 31, 2008. SLDI has also established a trust with The Bank of New York as trustee and ING USA as beneficiary in which SLDI assets totaling $655.2 have been deposited as of December 31, 2008. Since December 31, 2008, an additional $1,074.0 has been contributed to the trust.

At the inception of this reinsurance contract, the impact of the initial ceded premium of $665.8 was partially offset by ceded reserves of $273.6 and by an increase in DAC of $85.5. The net of these was established as a deferred loss of $306.7 and was reflected in Other Assets. The deferred loss is being amortized over the period of benefit.

At December 31, 2008, the value of reserves ceded by the Company under this agreement was $732.3, and the balance of the deferred loss, including both the initial deferred loss plus additional deferrals of 1.62% of premiums on new business, was $353.8.

Effective June 30, 2008, ING USA also entered into a services agreement with SLDI pursuant to which ING USA will provide certain actuarial risk modeling consulting services to SLDI with respect to hedge positions undertaken by SLDI in connection with the Covered Benefits reinsured by SLDI under the automatic reinsurance agreement. For the year ended December 31, 2008, revenue related to the agreement was $4.9.

Effective May 1, 2005, ING USA entered into a coinsurance agreement with its affiliate, Security Life. Under the terms of the agreement, Security Life assumed and accepted the responsibility for paying, when due, 100% of the liabilities arising under the multi-year guaranteed fixed annuity contracts issued by ING USA between January 1, 2001 and December 31, 2003. In addition, ING USA assigned to Security Life all future premiums received by ING USA attributable to the ceded contracts.

Under the terms of the agreement, ING USA ceded $2.5 billion in account balances and transferred a ceding commission and $2.7 billion in assets to Security Life, resulting in a realized capital gain of $47.9 to the Company.

The coinsurance agreement is accounted for using the deposit method. As such, $2.7 billion of Deposit receivable from affiliate was established on the Balance Sheets. The receivable will be adjusted over the life of the agreement based on cash settlements and the experience of the contracts, as well as for amortization of the ceding commission. The Company incurred amortization expense of the negative ceding commission of $19.9, and $21.2 and $23.5 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively, which is included in Other expenses in the Statements of Operations.

The initial premium of $219.9 was equal to the aggregate reserve assumed by ING USA. Thereafter, premiums are equal to the total earned gross premiums collected by ReliaStar from policyholders. ReliaStar will retain all reinsurance premiums payable to ING USA as funds withheld, as security for ceded liabilities and against which ceded losses will be offset. Monthly, ING USA will receive or pay a net settlement. In addition, ING USA is required to provide ReliaStar full reserve credit for reinsurance by providing a letter of credit, the cost of which will be partially reimbursed by ReliaStar.

13. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Leases

The Company leases its office space and certain equipment under operating leases, the longest term of which expires in 2017.

For the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, rent expense for leases was $8.7, $7.9, and $8.3, respectively. The future net minimum payments under noncancelable leases for the years ended December 31, 2009 through 2013 are estimated to be $7.7, $6.3, $5.3, $5.3, and $5.3, respectively, and $18.9, thereafter. The Company pays substantially all expenses associated with its leased and subleased office properties. Expenses not paid directly by the Company are paid for by an affiliate and allocated back to the Company.

Commitments

Through the normal course of investment operations, the Company commits to either purchase or sell securities, commercial mortgage loans, or money market instruments, at a specified future date and at a specified price or yield. The inability of counterparties to honor these commitments may result in either a higher or lower replacement cost. Also, there is likely to be a change in the value of the securities underlying the commitments.

At December 31, 2008, the Company had off-balance sheet commitments to purchase investments equal to their fair value of $421.4, $207.2 of which was with related parties. At December 31, 2007, the Company had off-balance sheet commitments to purchase investments equal to their fair value of $616.3, $156.5 of which was with related parties. During 2008 and 2007, $176.2 and $33.1, respectively, was funded to related parties under these commitments.

Financial Guarantees

The Company owns a 3-year credit-linked note arrangement, whereby the Company will reimburse the guaranteed party upon payment default of the referenced obligation. Upon such default, the Company will reimburse the guaranteed party for the loss under the reference obligation, and the Company receives that reference obligation in settlement. The Company can seek recovery of any losses under the agreements by sale or collection of the received reference obligation. As of December 31, 2008, the maximum potential future exposure to the Company under the guarantee was $32.5.

Cash Collateral

Under the terms of the Company’s Over-The-Counter Derivative ISDA Agreements (“ISDA Agreements”), the Company may receive from, or deliver to, counterparties, collateral to assure that all terms of the ISDA Agreements will be met with regard to the CSA. The terms of the CSA call for the Company to pay interest on any cash received equal to the Federal Funds rate. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company held $17.6 and $11.5, respectively, of cash collateral, which was included in Payables under securities loan agreement, including collateral held, on the Balance Sheets.

Litigation

The Company is involved in threatened or pending lawsuits/arbitrations arising from the normal conduct of business. Due to the climate in insurance and business litigation/arbitrations, suits against the Company sometimes include claims for substantial compensatory, consequential, or punitive damages, and other types of relief. Moreover, certain claims are asserted as class actions, purporting to represent a group of similarly situated individuals. While it is not possible to forecast the outcome of such lawsuits/arbitrations, in light of existing insurance, reinsurance, and established reserves, it is the opinion of management that the disposition of such lawsuits/arbitrations will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s operations or financial position.

Other Regulatory Matters

Regulatory Matters

As with many financial services companies, the Company and its affiliates have received informal and formal requests for information from various state and federal governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations in connection with inquiries and investigations of the products and practices of the financial services industry. In each case, the Company and its affiliates have been and are providing full cooperation.

Insurance and Retirement Plan Products and Other Regulatory Matters

Federal and state regulators, and self-regulatory agencies are conducting broad inquiries and investigations involving the insurance and retirement industries. These initiatives currently focus on, among other things, compensation, revenue sharing, and other sales incentives; potential conflicts of interest; sales and marketing practices (including sales to seniors); specific product types (including group annuities and indexed annuities); and disclosure. The Company and certain of its U.S. affiliates have received formal and informal requests in connection with such investigations, and have cooperated and are cooperating fully with each request for information. Some of these matters could result in regulatory action involving the Company. These initiatives also may result in new legislation and regulation that could significantly affect the financial services industry, including businesses in which the Company is engaged. In light of these and other developments, U.S. affiliates of ING, including the Company, periodically review whether modifications to their business practices are appropriate.

Investment Product Regulatory Issues

Since 2002, there has been increased governmental and regulatory activity relating to mutual funds and variable insurance products. This activity has primarily focused on inappropriate trading of fund shares; directed brokerage; compensation; sales practices, suitability, and supervision; arrangements with service providers; pricing; compliance and controls; adequacy of disclosure; and document retention.

In addition to responding to governmental and regulatory requests on fund trading issues, ING management, on its own initiative, conducted, through special counsel and a national accounting firm, an extensive internal review of mutual fund trading in ING insurance, retirement, and mutual fund products. The goal of this review was to identify any instances of inappropriate trading in those products by third parties or by ING investment professionals and other ING personnel.

The internal review identified several isolated arrangements allowing third parties to engage in frequent trading of mutual funds within the variable insurance and mutual fund products of ING, and identified other circumstances where frequent trading occurred despite measures taken by ING intended to combat market timing. Each of the arrangements has been terminated and disclosed to regulators, to the independent trustees of ING Funds (U.S.) and in Company reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Action has been or may be taken by regulators with respect to the Company or certain affiliates before investigations relating to fund trading are completed. The potential outcome of such action is difficult to predict but could subject the Company or certain affiliates to adverse consequences, including, but not limited to, settlement payments, penalties, and other financial liability. It is not currently anticipated, however, that the actual outcome of any such action will have a material adverse effect on ING or ING’s U.S.-based operations, including the Company.

ING has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the ING Funds from all damages resulting from wrongful conduct by ING or its employees or from ING’s internal investigation, any investigations conducted by any governmental or self-regulatory agencies, litigation or other formal proceedings, including any proceedings by the SEC. Management reported to the ING Funds Board that ING management believes that the total amount of any indemnification obligations will not be material to ING or ING’s U.S.-based operations, including the Company.

14. Subsequent Events

Subsequent to December 31 2008, the ING Supervisory Board of Directors approved a liquidity facility for up to $2.0 billion to support the liquidity requirements in ING’s life insurance operations, including the Company. The exact usage of the facility, if any, has not yet been determined, as it will be utilized as an alternative source of liquidity.

15. Restructuring Charges

2008 Expense Reductions

During the fourth quarter, the Company implemented an expense reduction program for the purpose of streamlining its overall operations. The restructuring charges related to this expense reduction initiative include severance and other employee benefits and lease abandonment costs, which are included in Operating Expenses on the Statements of Operations.

The following table illustrates the restructuring reserves and charges for the period ended December 31, 2008.

Restructuring reserve at inception  $ -   
         Restructuring charges:     
               Employee severance and termination benefits  3.3  (1) 
               Future rent on non-cancelable leases  0.4  (2) 
         Total restructuring charges  3.7   
         Other charges  -   
         Intercompany charges and payments  (0.5)  (3) 
         Payments applied against reserve  (0.7)  (4) 
Restructuring reserve at December 31, 2008  $ 2.5   

(1)      Amounts represent charges to the Company for all severed employees that support the Company, including those within affiliates.
(2)      Amounts represent intercompany expense allocations from ING AIH. The expenses were allocated to the Company based upon the department that used the space, and the cash settlement occurred in January 2009.
(3)      Amounts represent payments to ING affiliates for severance incurred by another ING entity for employees that supported the Company. Payments were made through ING's intercompany cash settlement process.
(4)      Amounts represent payments to employees of the Company, as well as reversals of severance reserves.

The Company estimates the completion of these integration and restructuring activities by November 15, 2009.

2009 Expense and Staff Reductions

On January 12, 2009, ING announced expense and staff reductions across all U.S. operations, which resulted in the elimination of 114 current and open positions in the Company. Due to the staff reductions, curtailment of pension benefits shall occur during the first quarter of 2009, which will result in the recognition of a loss related to unrecognized prior service costs. The effect of the curtailment on the Company’s earnings is anticipated to be less than $0.1. The Company anticipates that the restructuring activities in regards to its operations will be complete by November 15, 2009, with total estimated costs to the Company equal to $6.7.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Account’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Account’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2008, by correspondence with the transfer agents. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the respective Divisions constituting ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company Separate Account B at December 31, 2008, the results of their operations and changes in their net assets for the periods disclosed in the financial statements, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization

ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company Separate Account B (the “Account”) was established by ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (“ING USA” or the “Company”) to support the operations of variable annuity contracts (“Contracts”). The Company is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc. (“ING AIH”) an insurance holding company domiciled in the State of Delaware. ING AIH is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of ING Groep, N.V. (“ING”), a global financial services holding company based in The Netherlands.

During 2008, the Account offered ING Architect Contracts, ING GoldenSelect Contracts, and ING Retirement Solutions Rollover Choice Contracts (collectively, the “Contracts”). ING GoldenSelect Contracts included Access, Premium Plus, ESII, and Landmark.

The Account includes the following discontinued offerings:

  ING GoldenSelect Contracts:
Access One (September 2003)
DVA and DVA Series 100 (May 2000)
DVA 80 (May 1991)
DVA Plus (January 2004)
Generations (October 2008)
Granite PrimElite (May 2001)
Opportunities and Legends (March 2007)

ING SmartDesign Contracts:
Variable Annuity, Advantage and Signature (April 2008)

The Account also includes The Fund For Life Division, which is not included in the accompanying financial statements, and which ceased to accept new Contracts effective December 31, 1994.

The Account is registered as a unit investment trust with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. ING USA provides for variable accumulation and benefits under the Contracts by crediting annuity considerations to one or more divisions within the Account or the ING USA guaranteed interest division, the ING USA fixed interest division, and the fixed separate account, which are not part of the Account, as directed by the contractowners. The portion of the Account’s assets applicable to Contracts will not be charged with liabilities arising out of any other business ING USA may conduct, but obligations of the Account, including the promise to make benefit payments, are obligations of ING USA. The assets and liabilities of the Account are clearly identified and distinguished from the other assets and liabilities of ING USA.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Account:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from reported results using those estimates.

Investments

Investments are made in shares of a Fund and are recorded at fair value, determined by the net asset value per share of the respective Fund. Investment transactions in each Fund are recorded on the trade date. Distributions of net investment income and capital gains from each Fund are recognized on the ex-distribution date. Realized gains and losses on redemptions of the shares of the Fund are determined on the specific identification basis. The difference between cost and current market value of investments owned on the day of measurement is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments.

Federal Income Taxes

Operations of the Account form a part of, and are taxed with, the total operations of ING USA, which is taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code. Earnings and realized capital gains of the Account attributable to the contractowners are excluded in the determination of the federal income tax liability of ING USA.

Contractowner Reserves

Prior to the annuity date, the Contracts are redeemable for the net cash surrender value of the Contracts. The annuity reserves of the Account are represented by net assets on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are equal to the aggregate account values of the contractowners invested in the Account Divisions. To the extent that benefits to be paid to the contractowners exceed their account values, ING USA will contribute additional

139


ING USA ANNUITY AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY SEPARATE ACCOUNT B

Notes to Financial Statements

funds to the benefit proceeds. Conversely, if amounts allocated exceed amounts required, transfers may be made to ING USA.

Changes from Principal Transactions

Included in Changes from Principal Transactions on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets are items which relate to contractowner activity, including deposits, surrenders and withdrawals, benefits, and contract charges. Also included are transfers between the fixed account and the Divisions, transfers between Divisions, and transfers to (from) ING USA related to gains and losses resulting from actual mortality experience (the full responsibility for which is assumed by ING USA). Any net unsettled transactions as of the reporting date are included in Payable to related parties on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

3.      Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
  Fair Value Measurements
  In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS No. 157”). FAS No. 157 provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. FAS No. 157 does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances.
  Under FAS No. 157, the FASB clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. In support of this principle, FAS No. 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop such assumptions. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data. FAS No. 157 also requires separate disclosure of fair value measurements by level within the hierarchy and expanded disclosure of the effect on earnings for items measured using unobservable data.
  The adoption of FAS No. 157 on January 1, 2008 did not have an impact on the Account’s net assets or results of operations. New disclosures are included in the Financial Instruments footnote.
4.      Financial Instruments
  The Account invests assets in shares of open-end mutual funds, which process orders to purchase and redeem shares on a daily basis at the fund's next computed net asset values (“NAV”). The fair value of the Account’s assets is based on the NAVs of mutual funds,

140


ING USA ANNUITY AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY SEPARATE ACCOUNT B

Notes to Financial Statements

which are obtained from the custodian and reflect the fair values of the mutual fund investments. The NAV is calculated daily upon close of the New York Stock Exchange and is based on the fair values of the underlying securities.

The Account’s financial assets are recorded at fair value on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are categorized as Level 1 as of December 31, 2008, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique below. The Account had no financial liabilities as of December 31, 2008.

The FAS No. 157 fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

§      Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active
  market.     
§      Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable
  either      directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
  Level      2 inputs include the following:
  a)      Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
  b)      Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets;
  c)      Inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable; and
  d)      Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data through correlation or other means.
§      Level 3 - Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both
  unobservable      and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These
  valuations,      whether derived internally or obtained from a third party, use critical
  assumptions      that are not widely available to estimate market participant
  expectations      in valuing the asset or liability.
5.      Charges and Fees
  Prior      to February 1, 2000, DVA Plus, Access, and Premium Plus Contracts each had three
  different      death benefit options referred to as Standard, Annual Ratchet, and 7% Solution;
  however,      in the state of Washington, the 5.5% Solution is offered instead of the 7%
  Solution.      After February 1, 2000, DVA Plus, Access and Premium Plus each had four
  different      death benefit options referred to as Standard, Annual Ratchet, 7% Solution and
  Max      7. In the state of Washington, the 5.5% Solution is offered instead of the 7%
  Solution      and Max 5.5 is offered instead of Max 7 after February 1, 2000. ES II,
  Generations,      Landmark and Opportunities contracts each have four different death benefit
  options      referred to as Standard, Annual or Quarterly Ratchet, 7% Solution and Max 7. In
  the      state of Washington, the 5.5% Solution is offered instead of the 7% Solution and Max
  5.5      is offered instead of Max 7. SmartDesign Advantage, SmartDesign Signature, and

141


ING USA ANNUITY AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY SEPARATE ACCOUNT B

Notes to Financial Statements

SmartDesign Variable Annuity contracts each have three different death benefit options referred to as Option Package I, Option Package II, and Option Package III. Focus has two different options referred to as Option Package I, Option Package II.

Under the terms of all Contracts, certain charges are allocated to the Contracts to cover ING USA’s expenses in connection with the issuance and administration of the Contracts. Following is a summary of these charges:

Mortality and Expense Risk Charges

ING USA assumes mortality and expense risks related to the operations of the Account and, in accordance with the terms of the Contracts, deducts a daily charge from the assets of the Account.

Daily charges are deducted at annual rates of up to 2.20% of the average daily net asset value of each Division of the Account to cover these risks, as specified in the Contracts:

Withdrawal and Distribution Charges

Under DVA 80, DVA, and DVA Series 100 Contracts, a charge is deducted from the accumulation value for contractowners taking more than one conventional partial withdrawal during a Contract year. For DVA 80 and DVA Contracts, annual distribution fees are deducted from the Contracts’ accumulation values.

Deferred Sales Load

Under Contracts offered prior to October 1995, a sales load of up to 7.50% was assessed against each premium payment for sales-related expenses, as specified in the Contracts. For DVA Series 100, the sales load is deducted in equal annual installments over the period the Contract is in force, not to exceed 10 years. For DVA 80 and DVA Contracts, although the sales load is chargeable to each premium when ING USA receives it, the amount of such charge is initially advanced by ING USA to contractowners and included in the accumulation value, and then deducted in equal installments on each Contract anniversary date over a period of six years. Upon surrender of the Contract, the unamortized deferred sales load is deducted from the accumulation value. In addition, when partial withdrawal limits are exceeded, a portion of the unamortized deferred sales load is deducted.

Premium Taxes

For certain Contracts, premium taxes are deducted, where applicable, from the accumulation value of each Contract. The amount and timing of the deduction depends on the contractowner’s state of residence and currently ranges up to 4.00% of premiums.

Other Contract Charges

For certain Contracts, an additional annual charge of 0.50% is deducted daily from the accumulation value for amounts invested in the ING GET U.S. Core Portfolio Funds.

Certain Contacts contain optional riders that are available for an additional charge, such as minimum guaranteed income benefits and minimum guaranteed withdrawal benefits. The amounts charged for these optional benefits vary based on a number of factors and are defined in the Contracts.

Fees Waived by ING USA

Certain charges and fees for various types of Contracts are currently waived by ING USA. ING USA reserves the right to discontinue these waivers at its discretion or to conform with changes in the law.

Incorporated herein by reference to Item 28 in Post-Effective Amendment No. 26 to Registration Statement on Form N-6 for Select*Life Variable Account of ReliaStar Life Insurance Company (File No. 33-57244), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 7, 2009.

ITEM 27: NUMBER OF CONTRACT OWNERS

As of February 27, 2009 there are 91,506 qualified contract owners and 44,886 non-qualified contract owners.

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.

A corporation may procure indemnification insurance on behalf of an individual who is or was a director of the corporation. Consistent with the laws of the State of Iowa, ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc. maintains a Professional Liability and fidelity bond 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 financial interest of 50% or more. These policies include the principal underwriter, as well as, the depositor. Additionally, the parent company of ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc., ING Groep N.V., maintains excess umbrella coverage with limits in excess of €125,000,000. The policies provide 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 through its Separate Accounts A, B and EQ, and Alger Separate Account A; and ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York through its Separate Account NY-B.
