NOTICE OF LIQUIDATION 

Effective after the close of business on April 30, 2010, the following investment portfolio indicated as
the Liquidating Portfolio will liquidate and the proceeds will be placed in the investment portfolio
indicated as the Surviving Portfolio:

                    Liquidating Portfolio                    Surviving Portfolio 
ING Russell Global Large Cap Index 75% Portfolio  ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio (Class S) 
(Class S)   

The Surviving Portfolio is designated as a Covered Fund for purposes of certain optional living benefit
riders and the death benefits. Contract value allocated to a Covered Fund is eligible for inclusion in
calculating the guaranteed portion of a benefit associated with your contract. Please refer to the
prospectus for more information.

Important Information Regarding Liquidation:

The liquidation will be administered pursuant to a liquidation and dissolution plan, which was approved
by the board of trustees of the Liquidating Portfolio on December 16, 2009. The plan is subject to
shareholder approval. If shareholder approval is obtained, the liquidation and dissolution is expected to
take place after the close of business on April 30, 2010. The liquidation and dissolution is being proposed
because the Liquidating Portfolio has been less popular with the public than originally anticipated. The
Liquidating Portfolio has failed to garner and maintain sufficient assets to reach scale and its management
does not anticipate that the Liquidating Portfolio will be able to attract sufficient additional assets in the
foreseeable future to maintain viability. Maintaining the Liquidating Portfolio at its current asset levels
has been determined not to be beneficial in the long-term to shareholders.

Before the liquidation date, you may reallocate contract value in the Liquidating Portfolio to another
investment portfolio currently available under the contract. This reallocation will neither count as a
transfer for purposes of our Excessive Trading Policy or the MGAB (if applicable) nor will it be subject
to a transfer charge under the contract. Contract value remaining in the Liquidating Portfolio on the
liquidation date will be placed in the Surviving Portfolio. Thereafter, the Liquidating Portfolio will no
longer be available under the contract.

Unless you provide us with alternative allocation instructions, all future allocations directed to the
Liquidating Portfolio will be automatically allocated to the Surviving Portfolio. It is important to request

a reallocation before the liquidation date if you do not want your contract value in the Liquidating
Portfolio to be placed in the Surviving Portfolio.

30, 2010.

Important Information Regarding Liquidation:

The liquidation will be administered pursuant to a liquidation and dissolution plan, which was approved
by the board of trustees of the Liquidating Portfolio on February 9, 2010. The liquidation and dissolution
is expected to take place after the close of business on April 30, 2010. The liquidation and dissolution of
the Liquidating Portfolio was approved by the board of trustees of the Liquidating Portfolio because it has
determined that it is in the best interests of the Liquidating Portfolio and its respective shareholders to
terminate and wind up the Liquidating Portfolio.

Before the liquidation date, you may reallocate contract value in the Liquidating Portfolio to another
investment portfolio currently available under the contract. This reallocation will neither count as a
transfer for purposes of our Excessive Trading Policy nor be subject to a transfer charge under the
contract. Contract value remaining in the Liquidating Portfolio on the liquidation date will be placed in
