NOTICE OF AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING A FUND SUBSTITUTION
 
The following information directly below only affects you if you currently invest in the subaccount that
corresponds to the Fidelity® VIP Contrafund® Portfolio.  
 
The Securities and Exchange Commission issued an order to permit the ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance
Company and its Separate Account B to replace, effective on or about July 12, 2013 (the “Substitution Effective
Date”), the Fidelity® VIP Contrafund® Portfolio (“Replaced Fund”) with the ING Large Cap Growth Portfolio
(“Substitute Fund”).    
 
The following lists important information regarding the upcoming fund substitution:  
· Prior to the Substitution Effective Date, and for thirty days thereafter you may transfer amounts allocated to
  the subaccount that invests in the Replaced Fund to any other available subaccount or any available fixed
  account free of charge, and any such transfer will not count as a transfer when imposing any applicable
  restrictions or limits on transfers (other than restrictions related to frequent or disruptive transfers).
· On the Substitution Effective Date, your investment in the subaccount that invests in the Replaced Fund
  will automatically become an investment in the subaccount that invests in the Substitute Fund with an equal
  total net asset value.    
· You will not incur any fees or charges or any tax liability because of the substitution, and your Contract
  value immediately before the substitution will equal your Contract value immediately after the substitution.
· The overall expenses of the Substitute Fund are less than the overall expenses of the Replaced Fund. The
  fees and expenses of the Substitute Fund are more fully described in the Substitute Fund’s summary
  prospectus.    
· The investment objective and policies of the Substitute Fund are similar to the investment objective and
  policies of the Replaced Fund. The investment objective of the Substitute Fund, along with information
  about the Substitute Fund’s investment adviser/subadviser, are more fully described in the Substitute
  Fund’s summary prospectus.    
· Prior to the Substitution Effective Date you will be sent a fund summary prospectus for the Substitute
  Fund. Read this summary prospectus carefully before deciding what to do with amounts allocated to the
  Subaccount that invests in the Substitute Fund. If you have not received one, or if you need another copy,
  please contact our Customer Service Center at 1-800-366-0066.  
· After the Substitution Effective Date, the subaccount investing in the Replaced Fund will no longer be
  available through the Contract and there will be no further disclosure regarding it in any future Contract
  prospectus or supplements to the Contract prospectus.

Company” in the SAI are deleted and replaced with the following:  
 
ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (“ING USA”) is an Iowa stock life insurance company, which was

initial public offering (“IPO”) of the common stock of ING U.S. While ING is currently the majority shareholder of
