The Contract is available in connection with certain retirement plans that qualify for special federal income tax treatment ("qualified Contracts") as well as those that do not qualify for such treatment ("non-qualified Contracts"). The Contract provides a means for you to invest your premium payments in one or more of the available 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, some guaranteed interest periods or subaccounts may not be available. The investment portfolios available under your Contract and the portfolio managers are listed on the back of this cover. 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. This prospectus provides information that you should know before investing and should be kept for future reference. A Statement of Additional Information ("SAI"), dated, October 12, 2004, has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). It is available without charge upon request.

(7) Please see "Charges and Fees - Optional Rider Charges" and "Optional Riders" later in this prospectus. (8) If you elect the Step-Up Benefit, we reserve the right to increase the charge for the MGWB to a maximum annual charge of 1.00% of contract value. Please see "Minimum Guarantee Withdrawal Benefit Step-Up Benefit." Trust or Fund Expenses The next item shows the minimum and maximum total operating expenses charged by a 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.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total Annual Trust or Fund Operating Expenses(9) Minimum Maximum ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (expenses that are deducted from Trust or Fund assets, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees10, and other expenses): 0.53% 1.28% ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(9) The minimum and maximum total operating expenses charged by a Trust or Fund including applicable expense reimbursement or fee waiver arrangements would be 0.53% to 1.23%. The expense reimbursement or fee arrangement reflected is expected to continue through May 1, 2005. (10) 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. The following table shows the annual operating expenses separately for each Trust or Fund. Fund Expense Table(1) The column labeled "Total Fund Annual Expenses Without Waivers or Reductions" shows the total annual operating expenses charged by a Trust or Fund, absent expense reimbursement or fee waiver arrangements. The expenses reflect the aggregate annual operating expenses of each portfolio and its corresponding underlying fund or funds. The column labeled "Net Fund Annual Expenses After Waivers or Reductions" shows such total annual operating expenses after applicable expense reimbursement or fee waiver arrangements where the trust or Fund has committed to continue such reimbursement or waiver through May 1, 2005. Expenses shown are actual expenses for the year ended 12/31/03 unless otherwise noted.

SimpleChoice --133029 2 Footnotes to the "Fund Expense Table" (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 this Fund Expense Table and 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 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. See "Fees - Fund Expenses" for additional information. (2) Because the Portfolio is new, expenses, shown above, are estimated. (3) The table reflects the aggregate annual operating expense for these Portfolios. The expenses are derived by using a weighted average of the fees imposed by each of the portfolios underlying the Portfolios and adding to that average fee, an investment advisory fee of 0.14% and other expenses of 0.05% for each Portfolio. Because the annual net operating expenses of each underlying portfolio will vary from year to year, the expenses paid by a Portfolio may vary from year to year. For more information regarding the expenses of the underlying portfolios, please see the Fund's prospectus (4) ING Investments, LLC, the investment adviser to each Portfolio, has entered into written expense limitation agreements with each Portfolio under which it will limit expenses of each Portfolio, excluding interest, taxes, brokerage and extraordinary expenses, subject to possible recoupment by ING within three years. The amount of each Portfolio's expenses waived, reimbursed or recouped during the last fiscal year by ING is shown under the heading "Total Waivers or Reductions." For each Portfolio, the expense limits are contractual and will continue through at least May 3, 2005. For further information regarding the expense limitation agreements, see the Fund's prospectus. (5) The table above shows the estimated operating expenses for Class S Shares of each Portfolio as a ratio of expenses to average daily net assets. These estimates, unless otherwise noted, are based on each Portfolio's actual operating expenses for its most recently completed fiscal year, as adjusted for contractual changes, if any. "Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees" includes a Shareholder Service Fee of 0.25%. (6) Through a "bundled fee" arrangement, Directed Services, Inc. (DSI), the Trust's manager, is paid a single fee for advisory, administrative, custodial, transfer agency, auditing and legal services necessary for the ordinary operation of the Portfolio. The Portfolios would bear any extraordinary expenses. Premium taxes (which currently range from 0% to 3.5% of premium payments) may apply, but are not reflected in the tables above or in the examples below. 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. These costs include contract owner transaction expenses, contract fees, separate account annual expenses, and Trust or Fund fees and expenses. The example assumes that you invest $10,000, in the Contract for the time periods indicated. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and assumes the maximum fees and expenses of any of the Trusts or Funds. Specifically, the example assumes election of Option Package III, and election of the Minimum Guaranteed Accumulation Benefit rider with a charge of 0.65% of MGAB Charge Base annually. The example reflects the deduction of a mortality and expense risk charge, an asset-based administrative charge, and the annual contract administrative charge as an annual charge of assets. If you elect different options, your expenses will be lower. Note that surrender charges may apply if you choose to annuitize your Contract within the first contract year. SimpleChoice --133029 3 Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be: Minimum Guaranteed Accumulation Benefit -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1) If you surrender your contract at the end of the applicable time period: 1 year 3 years 5 years 10 years $1,073 $1,835 $2,619 $3,871 2) If you annuitize at the end of the applicable time period: 1 year 3 years 5 years 10 years $1,073 $1,106 $1,869 $3,871 3) If you do not surrender your contract: 1 year 3 years 5 years 10 years $364 $1,106 $1,869 $3,871 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (assuming Step-Up in Year 6) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1) If you surrender your contract at the end of the applicable time period: 1 year 3 years 5 years 10 years $1,046 $1,755 $2,379 $3,936 2) If you annuitize at the end of the applicable time period: 1 year 3 years 5 years 10 years $1,046 $1,018 $1,726 $3,936 3) If you do not surrender your contract: 1 year 3 years 5 years 10 years $334 $1,018 $1,726 $3,936 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Compensation is paid for the sale of the Contracts. For information about this compensation, see "Selling the Contract." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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. Because no Contracts had been issued as of the date of this prospectus, no condensed financial information is included in this prospectus. 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 mortality and expense risk charge and the daily asset-based administrative charge from the subaccount. SimpleChoice --133029 4 Calculations for the subaccounts are made on a per share basis. The Net Rate of Return equals the Net Investment Factor minus one. Performance Information From time to time, we may advertise or include in reports to contract owners 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. Total return figures will be based 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 portfolio 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, but will not reflect the surrender charge. 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 no surrender. 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. Financial Statements The statement of assets and liabilities of Separate Account B as of December 31, 2003, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, and the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended are included in the Statement of Additional Information. The consolidated financial statements and schedules of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company) as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003 are included in the Statement of Additional Information. SimpleChoice --133029 5 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ING USA ANNUITY AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company ("ING USA") (formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company) 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 consolidated financial statements appear in the Statement of Additional Information. Lion Connecticut is the holding company for Directed Services, Inc., 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, LLC, 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. ING also owns Baring International Investment Limited, another portfolio manager of the ING Investors Trust. Our principal office is located at 1475 Dunwoody Drive, West Chester, Pennsylvania 19380. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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. We are obligated to pay all benefits and make all payments provided under the Contracts. 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." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE TRUSTS AND FUNDS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You will find detailed information about the Trusts and Funds currently available under your Contract in Appendix A -- The Investment Portfolios. A prospectus containing more 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 "LifeStyle Funds". Funds offered in a 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. See "Trust and Fund Expenses". Also, you should discuss with your registered representative whether the LifeStyle Funds are appropriate for you, particularly if you are a conservative investor. In the event that, due to differences in tax treatment or other considerations, the interests of contract owners of various contracts participating in the Trusts conflict, we, the Boards of Trustees or Directors of Trusts or Funds, and any insurance companies participating in the Trusts or Funds will monitor events to identify and resolve any material conflicts that may arise. SimpleChoice --133029 6 Restricted Funds We may designate any investment option as a Restricted Fund and limit the amount you may allocate or transfer to a Restricted Fund. We may establish any such limitation, 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. We may, with 30 days notice to you, designate any investment portfolio as a Restricted Fund or change the limitations on existing contracts with respect to new premiums added to such investment portfolio and also with respect to new transfers to such investment portfolio. If a change is made with regard to designation as a Restricted Fund or applicable limitations, such change will apply only to transactions effected after such change. We limit your investment in the Restricted Funds on both an aggregate basis for all Restricted Funds and for each individual Restricted Fund. The aggregate limits for investment in all Restricted Funds are expressed as a percentage of contract value, percentage of premium and maximum dollar amount. Currently, your investment in two or more Restricted Funds would be subject to each of the following three limitations: no more than 30 percent of contract value, up to 100 percent of each premium and no more than $999,999,999. We may change these limits, in our discretion, for new contracts, premiums, transfers or withdrawals. We also limit your investment in each individual Restricted Fund. The limits for investment in each Restricted Fund are expressed as a percentage of contract value, percentage of premium and maximum dollar amount. Currently, the limits for investment in an individual Restricted Fund are the same as the aggregate limits set forth above. 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 Fund has increased beyond the applicable limit due to market growth, we will not require the reallocation or withdrawal of contract value from the Restricted Fund. However, if an aggregate limit has been exceeded, withdrawals must be taken either from the Restricted Funds or taken 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 not permit a transfer to the Restricted Funds to the extent that it would increase the contract value in the Restricted Fund or in all Restricted Funds to more than the applicable limits set forth above. We will not limit transfers from Restricted Funds. If the result of multiple reallocations is to lower the percentage of total contract value in Restricted Funds, the reallocation will be permitted even if the percentage of contract value in a Restricted Fund is greater than its limit. Please see "Withdrawals" and "Transfers Among Your Investments" 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 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. 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 the 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, with respect to new transfers to such investment option and with respect to the death benefits and/or optional benefit rider to which such designation applies. Selecting a Special or Excluded Fund may limit or reduce the death benefit and/or the minimum guaranteed accumulation benefit. SimpleChoice --133029 7 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Charges and Fees -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We deduct the Contract charges described below to compensate us for our cost 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. 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. In the event there are any profits from fees and charges deducted under the Contract, including the mortality and expense risk charge and rider and benefit charges, we may use such profits to finance the distribution of Contracts. Charge Deduction Subaccount You may elect to have all 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, the charges will be deducted as discussed below. You may cancel this option at any time by sending satisfactory notice to our Customer Service Center. 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 7-year period from the date we receive and accept a premium payment. The surrender charge is based on a percentage of each premium payment withdrawn. This charge is intended to cover sales expenses that we have incurred. The surrender charge will be based on the total amount withdrawn, including the amount deducted for the surrender charge. It will be deducted from the remaining contract value remaining after you have received the amount requested for withdrawal, not from the amount you requested as a withdrawal. We may in the future reduce or waive the surrender charge in certain situations and 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 withdrawn as follows: Complete Years Elapsed 0 1 2 3 4 5 Since Premium Payment Surrender Charge 7% 7% 7% 6% 5% 0% Nursing Home Waiver. You may withdraw all or a portion of your contract value without a surrender charge if: (1) more than one contract year has elapsed since the contract date; (2) the withdrawal is requested within three years of your admission to a licensed nursing care facility; and (3) you have spent at least 45 consecutive days in such nursing care facility. We will not waive the early withdrawal charge if you were in a nursing care facility for at least one day during the two week period immediately preceding or following the contract date. It will also not apply to Contracts where prohibited by state law. Free Withdrawal Amount. The Free Withdrawal Amount is 10% of contract value, based on the contract value on the date of the withdrawal. SimpleChoice --133029 8 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 code. We consider a withdrawal to be an "excess withdrawal" when the amount you withdraw in any contract year exceeds the Free Withdrawal Amount. Where 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. Such a withdrawal will be considered a partial surrender of the Contract and we will impose a surrender charge and any associated premium tax. 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. For the purpose of calculating the surrender charge for an excess withdrawal: a) we treat premiums as being withdrawn on a first-in, first-out basis; and b) 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 D. Earnings for purposes of calculating the surrender charge for excess withdrawals may not be the same as earnings under federal tax law. Premium Taxes. We may make a charge for state and local premium taxes depending on your state of residence. The tax 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 on the income phase payment start date. However, some jurisdictions impose a premium tax at the time that initial and additional premiums are paid, regardless of when the income phase 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 income phase payment start date. Administrative Charge. We deduct an annual administrative charge on each Contract anniversary, or if you surrender your Contract prior to a Contract anniversary, at the time we determine the cash surrender value payable to you. The amount deducted is $30 per Contract unless waived under 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. If such a charge is assessed, we would deduct the charge from the subaccounts and the Fixed Interest Allocations from which each such transfer is made in proportion to the amount being transferred from each such subaccount and Fixed Interest Allocation unless you have chosen to have all charges deducted from a single subaccount. The charge will not apply to any transfers due to the election of dollar cost averaging, automatic rebalancing and transfers we make to and from any subaccount specially designated by the Company for such purpose. Charges Deducted from the Subaccounts Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. The mortality and expense risk charge is deducted each business day. The amount of the mortality and expense risk charge depends on the option package 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. In the event there are any profits from the mortality and expense risk charge, we may use such profits to finance the distribution of contracts. SimpleChoice --133029 9

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. The charge is deducted on each business day at the rate of .000411% from your assets in each subaccount. Optional Rider Charges. Subject to state availability, you may purchase one of two optional benefit riders that you may elect at issue. So long as the rider is in effect, we will deduct a separate quarterly charge for the optional benefit 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 subaccount, we will deduct the charge from your Fixed Interest Allocations nearest their maturity date. 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. For a description of the rider and the defined terms used in connection with the riders, see "The Annuity Contract -- Optional Riders." Minimum Guaranteed Accumulation Benefit (MGAB). The charge for the MGAB rider is as follows: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Waiting Period As an Annual Charge As a Quarterly Charge -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10 Year 0.65% of the MGAB Charge Base 0.1625% of the MGAB Charge Base -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The MGAB Charge will be made during the 10-year waiting period starting on the rider date and ending on the MGAB Date. The MGAB Charge Base is the total of premiums added during the two-year period commencing on the rider date if you purchase the rider on the contract date, or, your contract value on the rider date plus premiums added during the two-year period commencing on the rider date if you purchased the rider after the contract date, reduced pro-rata for all withdrawals taken while the MGAB rider is in effect, and reduced pro rata for transfers made during the three-year period before the MGAB date. Withdrawals and transfers may reduce the applicable MGAB Charge Base by more than the amount withdrawn or transferred. Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (MGWB). The annual charge for the MGWB rider is 0.35% (0.0875% quarterly) of the contract value. The charge is deducted from the contract value in the subaccounts on each quarterly contract anniversary date, in arrears. We will deduct charges during the period starting on the rider date and up to your Contract's Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Automatic Periodic Benefit Status will occur if your contract value is reduced to zero and other conditions are met. Please see "Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit - Automatic Periodic Benefit Status" later in this prospectus. 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 quarterly charge rate immediately prior to the surrender or annuitization. Trust and Fund Expenses Each portfolio deducts portfolio management fees and charges from the amounts you have invested in the portfolios. In addition, certain portfolios deduct a service fee, which is used to compensate service providers for administrative and contract holder services provided on behalf of the portfolios, and certain portfolios deduct a distribution or 12b-1 fee, which is used to finance any activity that is primarily intended to result in the sale of shares of the applicable portfolio. In addition to the fees and charges shown in the Fee Table, the Company may, from time to time, receive other compensation from the funds or the funds' affiliates. For example, investment advisers to the funds may make cash payments or provide expense reimbursements to the Company as an incentive for the Company to include the funds among the investment options available under your Contract and to provide certain services to contract owners that relate to the investment options. In particular, we may receive compensation from the investment advisers, administrators or distributors of the portfolios in connection with administrative, distribution, or other services and cost savings experienced by the investment advisers, administrators or distributors. It is anticipated that such compensation will be based on assets of the particular portfolios attributable to the Contract. Some advisers, administrators or distributors may pay us more than others. During 2003, the Company received compensation from certain funds and funds' affiliates. SimpleChoice --133029 10 Certain funds are designated as "LifeStyle Funds". Funds offered in a 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. The Fund Expense Table included in "Fees and Expenses" reflects the aggregate annual operating expenses of each portfolio and its corresponding underlying fund or funds. These funds are identified in the Fund Expense Table. See "Fees and Expenses - Trust or Fund Expenses." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 Interest Division. See Appendix B and the Fixed Interest Division Offering Brochure for more information on the Fixed Interest Division. If you have any questions concerning this Contract, contact your registered representative or call our Customer Service Center at 1-800-366-0066. 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 are also the annuitant unless another annuitant is named in the application. 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. The death benefit becomes payable when you die. In the case of a sole contract owner who dies before the income phase begins, 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 income phase begins, we will designate the surviving contract owner as the beneficiary. This will override any previous beneficiary designation. If the contract owner is a trust and a beneficial owner of the trust has been designated, the beneficial owner will be treated as the contract owner for determining the death benefit. If a beneficial owner is changed or added after the contract date, this will be treated as a change of contract owner for determining the death benefit (likely a taxable event). If no beneficial owner of the trust has been designated, the availability of an enhanced death benefit will be based on the age of the annuitant at the time you purchase the Contract. 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 Option Package I. 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 Option Package II or III, and you add a joint owner, if the older joint owner is attained age 85 or under, the death benefit from the date of change will be the Option Package I death benefit. If the older joint owner's attained age is 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 MGAB or MGWB rider, it will terminate if a joint owner, other than your spouse, is added. Note that returning a Contract to single owner status will not restore any death benefit. Unless otherwise specified, the term "age" when used for joint owners shall mean the age of the oldest owner. SimpleChoice --133029 11 Annuitant The annuitant is the person designated by you to be the measuring life in determining income phase payments. The annuitant's age determines when the income phase must begin and the amount of the income phase payments to be paid. You are the annuitant unless you choose to name another person. The annuitant may not be changed after the Contract is in effect. The contract owner will receive the annuity benefits of the Contract if the annuitant is living on the income phase payment start date. If the annuitant dies before the income phase payment start date and a contingent annuitant has been named, the contingent annuitant becomes the annuitant (unless the contract owner is not an individual, in which case the death benefit becomes payable). If there is no contingent annuitant when the annuitant dies before the income phase payment start date, the contract owner will become the annuitant. The contract owner may designate a new annuitant within 60 days of the death of the annuitant. When the annuitant dies before the annuity start date and the contract owner is not an individual, 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. If the annuitant was the sole contract owner and there is no beneficiary designation, the annuitant's estate 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 advisor for more information if you are 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 and who may become the successor contract owner if the contract owner who is a spouse (or the annuitant if the contract owner is other than an individual) dies before the income phase payment 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, the death benefit proceeds are paid 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. You have the right to change beneficiaries during the annuitant's lifetime unless you have designated an irrevocable beneficiary. When an irrevocable beneficiary has been designated, you and the irrevocable beneficiary may have to act together to exercise some of the rights and options under the Contract. 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. 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 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 new owner's death will determine when a death benefit is payable. If you have elected Option Package I, the death benefit will continue if the new owner is age 85 or under on the date of the ownership change. For Option Package II or III, if the new owner is age 79 or under on the date that ownership changes, the death benefit will continue. If the new owner is age 80 to 85, or new, under Option Package II or III, the death benefit will end, and the death benefit will become the Option Package I 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. 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, it will not be restored by a subsequent change to a younger owner. If you elected the MGAB rider or the MGWB rider, it will terminate upon a change of owner, other than spousal continuation on death. SimpleChoice --133029 12 All requests for changes must be in writing and submitted to our Customer Service Center in good order. 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. A change of owner likely has tax consequences. See "Federal Tax Considerations" in this prospectus. Purchase and Availability of the Contract There are three option packages available under the Contract. You select an option package at the time of application. Each option package is unique. The minimum initial payment to purchase the Contract and the maximum age at which you may purchase the Contract depend on the option package that you elect. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Option Package I Option Package II Option Package III -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Minimum Initial Payment $15,000 $15,000 $15,000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Maximum Age to Purchase 85 80 80 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You may make additional premium payments up to the contract anniversary after your 86th birthday. The minimum additional premium payment we will accept is $50 regardless of the option package you select. 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. Any initial or additional premium payment that would cause the contract value of all annuities that you maintain with us to exceed $1,000,000 requires our prior approval. We reserve the right to refuse to accept premiums after the 10th contract year. 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: (1) if you are looking for a short-term investment; (2) if you cannot risk getting back less money than you put in; or (3) if your assets are in a plan which provides for tax-deferral and you see no other reason to purchase this Contract. 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 your contract will be an IRA, see "Taxation of Qualified Contracts - Individual Retirement Annuities" and "Tax Consequences of Enhanced Death Benefit" in this prospectus. We and our affiliates offer other variable products that may offer some of the same investment portfolios. These products have different benefits and charges, and may or may not better match your needs. If you are interested in learning more about these other products, contact our Customer Service Center or your registered representative. 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. Subsequent premium payments will be processed within 1 business day if we receive all necessary information. 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. SimpleChoice --133029 13 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, we will consider the application incomplete. For initial premium payments designated for a subaccount of Separate Account B, the payment will be credited 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. We will make inquiry to discover 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 or requested in error, we will allocate the subsequent payment(s) proportionally among the other subaccount(s) in your current allocation or your allocation instructions. For any subsequent premium payments, the payment designated for a subaccount of Separate Account B will be credited 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. 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, in which case we will comply. (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). In some states, we may require that an initial premium designated for a subaccount of Separate Account B or the Fixed Interest Division 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 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 (money orders totaling more than $500, for example). 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. Income Phase Payment Start Date The income phase payment start date is the date you start receiving income phase 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 income phase payment start date. The income phase begins when you start receiving regular income phase payments from your Contract on the income phase payment start date. SimpleChoice --133029 14 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. Contract Value We determine your contract value on a daily basis beginning on the contract date. Your contract value is the sum of (a) the contract value in the Fixed Interest Allocations, and (b) the contract value in each subaccount in which you are invested. 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 that was 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 which 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 Liquid Assets subaccount). 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. See the Fixed Interest Division Offering Brochure prospectus for a description of the calculation of values 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, then we deduct any surrender charge, any charge for premium taxes, the annual contract administrative fee, 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 income phase payment start date. A surrender will be effective on the date your written request and the Contract are received at our Customer Service Center. We will determine and pay the cash surrender value at the price next determined after receipt of all paperwork required in order for us to process your surrender. Once paid, all benefits under the Contract will be terminated. 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. Consult your tax advisor regarding the tax consequences associated with surrendering your Contract. A surrender made before you reach age 59 1/2 may result in a 10% tax penalty. See "Federal Tax Considerations" for more details. The Subaccounts Each of the subaccounts of Separate Account B offered under this prospectus invests in an investment portfolio with its own distinct investment objectives and policies. Each subaccount of Separate Account B invests in a corresponding portfolio of a Trust or Fund. SimpleChoice --133029 15 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 and compliance with regulatory requirements. 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) substitute another portfolio for existing and future investments. If you have 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 which is subject to those instructions, we will execute your instructions using the substitute 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. We also 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, of course, provide you with written notice before any of these changes are effected. The Fixed Account The Fixed Account is a segregated asset account which contains the assets that support a contract owner's Fixed Interest Allocations. See Appendix B and the Fixed Account II prospectus for more information. Optional Riders Subject to state availability, you may elect one of the two optional benefit riders discussed below. You may add only one of these two riders to your Contract. Each rider has a separate 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 it. 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. The optional riders may not be approved in all states. Check with our Customer Service Center for availability in your state. The telephone number is (800) 366-0066. 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 the 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 optional riders are "living benefits," which means the guaranteed benefit offered by the rider is intended to be available to you while you are living and while your Contract is in the accumulation phase. The optional riders automatically terminate if you: o annuitize, surrender or otherwise terminate your Contract during the accumulation phase; or o 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 optional riders will also terminate if there is a change in contract ownership (other than a spousal beneficiary continuation on your death), including addition of a joint owner. Other circumstances which may cause a particular optional rider to terminate automatically are discussed below. 16 Minimum Guaranteed Accumulation Benefit Rider (MGAB). The MGAB rider is an optional benefit which provides you with an MGAB intended to guarantee a minimum contract value at the end of a specified waiting period. The MGAB Charge is deducted only during the 10 year waiting period. Only premiums added to your Contract during the first two-year period after your rider date are included in the MGAB Base. Any additional premium payments added after the second rider anniversary are not included in the MGAB Base. Thus, the MGAB rider may not be appropriate for you if you plan to add substantial premium payments after your second rider anniversary. The MGAB is a one-time adjustment to your contract value if your contract value on the MGAB Date is less than a specified amount. The MGAB Date is the next business day after the applicable waiting period. We calculate your Minimum Guaranteed Accumulation Benefit on this date. The MGAB rider may offer you protection if your Contract loses value during the MGAB waiting period. For a discussion of the charges we deduct under the MGAB rider, see "Optional Rider Charges." The MGAB rider has a waiting period of ten years and, other than for allocations to Excluded Funds and certain transfers, guarantees that your contract value at the end of ten years will at least equal your initial premium payment, reduced pro-rata for withdrawals. Transfers made within 3 years prior to the MGAB Date will also reduce the MGAB Base pro-rata. Calculating the MGAB. We calculate your MGAB as follows: 1) We first determine your MGAB Base. The MGAB Base is only a calculation used to determine the MGAB. It 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 annuity income, cash surrender value and death benefits. The MGAB Base is tracked separately for Covered, Special and Excluded Funds, based on the initial allocation of premium (or contract value), subsequently allocated eligible premiums, withdrawals and transfers. Contract value is used as the initial value if the rider is added after the contract date. The aggregate MGAB Base is used to determine the MGAB on the MGAB Date. The aggregate MGAB Base equals the sum of: a) the MGAB Base allocated to Covered Funds; b) the MGAB Base allocated to Special Funds; and c) the lesser of the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds or MGAB Base allocated to Excluded Funds. The MGAB Base for Covered Funds, Special Funds and Excluded Funds equals the allocated eligible premiums, adjusted for subsequent withdrawals and transfers. There is no accumulation of MGAB Base. If you purchased the MGAB optional benefit rider after the contract date, your MGAB Base equals your allocated contract value, plus premiums, added during the two-year period after your rider date, and adjusted for withdrawals and transfers. We use the MGAB Charge Base to determine the periodic MGAB rider charges. The MGAB Charge Base equals the eligible premiums, adjusted for subsequent withdrawals and transfers, as allocated by fund category. The MGAB Charge Base is tracked separately for Covered, Special and Excluded Funds, and separate rates may apply to each. Currently, the same deduction method and rate apply to all Fund categories. Withdrawals reduce the MGAB Base and MGAB Charge Base on a pro-rata basis. This means that they are adjusted for withdrawals by reducing them in the same proportion that the withdrawal affects the contract value. For example, if the contract value is reduced by 25% as the result of a withdrawal, the MGAB Base and the MGAB Charge Base are also reduced by 25% (rather than by the amount of the withdrawal). The percentage reduction in the MGAB Base and MGAB Charge Base 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. Net Transfers from Covered Funds or Special Funds to Excluded Funds reduce the MGAB Base and MGAB Charge Base allocated to Covered Funds or Special Funds on a pro-rata basis. Any resulting increase in MGAB Base and MGAB Charge Base allocated to Excluded Funds will equal the reduction in the MGAB Base and MGAB Charge Base allocated to Covered Funds or Special Funds. There will be no such increase if the transfer occurs within 3 years of the MGAB Date. SimpleChoice --133029 17 Net Transfers from Excluded Funds to other funds reduce the MGAB Base and MGAB Charge Base allocated to Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. The resulting increase in MGAB Base and MGAB Charge Base allocated to other funds will equal the lesser of the contract value transferred and the change in the MGAB Base and MGAB Charge Base allocated to Excluded Funds. There will be no such increase if the transfer occurs within 3 years of the MGAB Date. Any transfer within 3 years of the MGAB Date (regardless of the funds involved) reduces the MGAB Base and MGAB Charge Base for Covered, Special or Excluded Funds, as applicable, on a pro-rata basis, based on the percentage of contract value transferred, without any corresponding increase. No investment options are currently designated as Special Funds for the ten-year MGAB. No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds. 2) We then subtract your contract value on the MGAB Date from your aggregate MGAB Base. The contract value that we subtract includes both the contract value in the subaccounts in which you are invested and the contract value in your Fixed Interest Allocations, if any. 3) Any positive difference is your MGAB. If there is a MGAB, we will automatically credit it on the MGAB Date to the subaccounts in which you are invested pro-rata based on the proportion of your contract value in the subaccounts on that date, unless you have previously given us other allocation instructions. If you do not have an investment in any subaccount on the MGAB Date, we will allocate the MGAB to the Liquid Assets subaccount on your behalf. After we credit the MGAB, the amount of your annuity income, cash surrender value and death benefits will reflect the crediting of the MGAB to your contract value to the extent the contract value is used to determine such value. Purchase. To purchase the MGAB rider, you must be age 80 or younger on the rider date. The waiting period must end at or before your annuity start date. The MGAB rider may be purchased (i) on the contract date, and (ii) within 30 days following 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 of this prospectus, or the date of state approval, whichever is later. The MGAB Date. If you purchased the MGAB rider on the contract date or added the MGAB rider within 30 days following the contract date, the MGAB Date is your 10th contract anniversary. If you added the MGAB rider during the 30-day period preceding your first contract anniversary after the date of this prospectus, your MGAB Date will be the first contract anniversary occurring after 10 years after the rider date. The MGAB rider is not available if the MGAB Date would fall beyond the latest annuity start date. Notification. We will report any crediting of the MGAB in your first quarterly statement following the MGAB Date. The following describes the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit for Contracts in the May-2004 category. This rider is not available to contract owners in the Pre-May-2004 category. 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. SimpleChoice --133029 18 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. 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. 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. Please see Appendix G, Examples of Adjustment to the MGWB Withdrawal Account and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount for Withdrawals in Excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount. 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. SimpleChoice --133029 19 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 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. SimpleChoice --133029 20 Purchase. To purchase the MGWB rider, you must be age 80 or younger on the Rider Date. The MGWB rider must be purchased (i) on the contract date, or (ii) within 30 days after 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. For a discussion of the charges we deduct under the MGWB rider, see "Charges and Fees -- Optional Rider Charges." Each payment you receive under the MGWB rider will be taxed as a withdrawal and may be subject to a penalty tax. See "Withdrawals" and "Federal Tax Considerations" for more information. Other Contracts We offer other variable annuity contracts that also invest in the same investment portfolios of the Trusts and Funds. These contracts have different charges that could affect their performance, and may offer different benefits more suitable to your needs. To obtain more information about these other contracts, contact our Customer Service Center or your registered representative. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WITHDRAWALS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any time during the accumulation phase and before the death of the contract owner, except under certain qualified contracts, you may withdraw all or part of your money. Keep in mind that 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 may incur a surrender charge. There is no surrender charge if, during each contract year, the amount withdrawn is 10% or less of your contract value on the date of the withdrawal, less prior withdrawals during that contract year. Under Option Package III, any unused percentage of the 10% Free Withdrawal Amount from a contract year will carry forward into successive contract years, based on the percentage remaining at the time of the last withdrawal in that contract year. In no event will the Free Withdrawal Amount at any time exceed 30% of contract value. You need to submit to us a written request specifying the Fixed Interest Allocations or subaccounts from which amounts are to be withdrawn, otherwise the withdrawal will be made 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 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. 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. If the aggregate percentage cap on allocations to the Restricted Funds has been exceeded, any 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. If a requested withdrawal would cause the percentage cap to be exceeded, the amount of the withdrawal in excess of the cap would be taken pro-rata from all variable subaccounts. If the aggregate percentage cap on allocations to the Restricted Funds has been exceeded, any 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. If a requested withdrawal would cause the percentage cap to be exceeded, the amount of the withdrawal in excess of the cap would be taken pro-rata from all variable subaccounts. For administrative purposes, we will transfer your money to a specially designated subaccount (currently, the Liquid Assets subaccount) prior to processing the withdrawal. This transfer will not affect the withdrawal amount you receive. Other than the surrender charge, there is no separate charge for electing any of the withdrawal options. Please be aware that the benefit we pay under certain optional benefit riders will be reduced by any withdrawals you take while the optional benefit rider is in effect. See "Optional Riders." SimpleChoice --133029 21 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 from a Fixed Interest Allocation that is taken more than 30 days before its maturity date. See Appendix B and the Fixed Account II prospectus for more information on the application of Market Value Adjustment. Systematic Withdrawals You may choose to receive automatic systematic withdrawal payments (1) from the contract value in the subaccounts in which you are invested, or (2) from the interest earned in your Fixed Interest Allocations. 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. You decide when you would like systematic payments to start as long as it starts at least 28 days after your contract date. You also select the date on which the systematic withdrawals will be made, but this date cannot be later than the 28th day of the month. If you have elected to receive systematic withdrawals but have not chosen a date, we will make the withdrawals on the same calendar day of each month as your contract date. If your contract date is after the 28th day of the month, your systematic withdrawal will be made on the 28th day of each month. Each systematic withdrawal amount must be a minimum of $100. The amount of your systematic withdrawal can either be (1) a fixed dollar amount, or (2) an amount based on a percentage of the contract value. Both forms of systematic withdrawals are subject to the following maximum, which is calculated on each withdrawal date: --------------------------------------------------------- Maximum Percentage Frequency of Contract Value --------------------------------------------------------- Monthly 0.833% Quarterly 2.50% Annually 10.00% --------------------------------------------------------- If your systematic withdrawal is a fixed dollar amount and the amount to be withdrawn would exceed the applicable maximum percentage of your contract value 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 which you may add to your regular systematic withdrawal program. If your systematic withdrawal is based on a percentage of contract value 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. Systematic withdrawals from Fixed Interest Allocations are limited to interest earnings during the prior month, quarter, or year, depending on the frequency you chose. 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. SimpleChoice --133029 22 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. You may not elect the systematic withdrawal option if you are taking IRA withdrawals. 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 regardless of any surrender charges. Systematic withdrawals from Fixed Interest Allocations under the Fixed Dollar Systematic Withdrawal Feature are available only in connection with Section 72(q) or 72(t) distributions. You choose the amount of the fixed systematic withdrawals, which may total up to an annual maximum of 10% of your contract value as determined on the day we receive your election of this feature. The maximum limit will not be recalculated when you make additional premium payments, unless you instruct us to do so. 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 directly to your contract value (rather than to the systematic withdrawal) so that the amount of each systematic withdrawal remains fixed. Flat 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 when they exceed the applicable maximum percentage. IRA Withdrawals If you have a non-Roth IRA Contract and will be at least age 70 1/2 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. You may choose to receive IRA withdrawals on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis. Under this option, you may elect payments to start as early as 28 days after the contract date. You select the day of the month when the withdrawals will be made, but it cannot be later than the 28th day of the month. If no date is selected, we will make the withdrawals on the same calendar day of the month as the contract date. You may request that we calculate for you the amount that is required to be withdrawn 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 to make, 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. 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 59 1/2 may result in a 10% penalty tax. See "Federal Tax Considerations" for more details. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TRANSFERS AMONG YOUR INVESTMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You may transfer your contract value among the subaccounts in which you are invested and your Fixed Interest Allocations at the end of the free look period until the income phase payment start date. We currently do not charge you for transfers made during a contract year, but reserve the right to charge $25 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 Special or Excluded Funds and other investment portfolios may negatively impact your death benefit. SimpleChoice --133029 23 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. No investment options are currently designated as Restricted Funds. 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, may also affect your optional rider base. See "The Annuity Contract -- Optional Rider." Transfers will be based on values at the end of the business day in which the transfer request is received at our Customer Service Center. 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. Any transfer request received after 4:00 p.m. eastern time or the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange will be effected 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. Limits Imposed by Underlying Funds. Orders for the purchase of fund shares may be subject to acceptance or rejection by the underlying fund. We reserve the right to reject, without prior notice, any allocation of a premium payment to a subaccount if the subaccount's investment in its corresponding fund is not accepted by the fund for any reason. Limits on Frequent or Disruptive Transfers. The Contract is not designed to serve as a vehicle for frequent trading. Frequent trading can disrupt management of a fund and raise its expenses through: 1) increased trading and transaction costs; 2) forced and unplanned portfolio turnover; 3) lost opportunity costs; and 4) 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 and make frequent transfers should not purchase the Contract. We reserve the right to restrict, in our sole discretion and without prior notice, transfers initiated by a market-timing organization or individual or other party authorized to give transfer instructions on behalf of multiple contract owners. Such restrictions could include: (1) not accepting transfer instructions from an agent acting on behalf of more than one contract owner; and (2) not accepting preauthorized transfer forms from market timers or other entities acting on behalf of more than one contract owner at a time. We monitor transfer activity. With regard to frequent transfers, in the event that an individual's or organization's transfer activity: 1. exceeds our then-current monitoring standard for frequent trading; 2. is identified as problematic by an underlying fund even if the activity does not exceed our monitoring standard for frequent trading; or 3. if we determine in our sole discretion that such transfer activity may not be in the best interests of other contract owners. we reserve the right to take any necessary action to deter such activity. Such actions may include, but are not limited to, the suspension of trading privileges via facsimile, telephone, email and internet, and the limiting of trading privileges to submission by regular. We will notify you in writing if we take any of these actions. SimpleChoice --133029 24 Our current definition of frequent trading is more than one purchase and sale of the same underlying fund within a 30-day period. We do not count transfers associated with scheduled dollar cost averaging or automatic rebalancing programs, transfers involving funds that affirmatively permit short-term trading in their fund shares, such as the ProFund portfolios, movement between such funds and the Liquid Assets Portfolio, and transfers involving certain de minimis amounts when determining whether trading activity is excessive. We reserve the right to modify our general standard, or the standard as it may apply 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. In addition, if, due to the excessive dollar amounts of trades, even though not within our then current definition of frequent trading, an individual's or organization's transfer activity is determined, in our sole discretion, to be disruptive, we may take the same actions as are described above to limit frequent transfers. The Company does not allow waivers to the above policy. Our excessive trading policy may not be completely successful in preventing market timing or excessive trading activity. Dollar Cost Averaging You may elect to participate in our dollar cost averaging program if you have at least $1,200 of contract value in the (i) Liquid Assets subaccount, or (ii) a Fixed Interest Allocation with either a 6-month or a 1-year guaranteed interest period. These subaccounts or 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 subaccounts selected by you. We also may offer DCA Fixed Interest Allocations, which are 6-month and 1-year Fixed Interest Allocations available exclusively for use with the dollar cost averaging program. The DCA Fixed Interest Allocations require a minimum premium payment of $1,200 directed into a DCA Fixed Interest Allocation. Transfers made pursuant to a dollar cost averaging program do not count toward the 12-transfer limit on free transfers. 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. Unless you have a DCA Fixed Interest Allocation, you elect the dollar amount you want transferred under this program. Each monthly transfer must be at least $100. If your source account is the Liquid Assets subaccount or a 1-year Fixed Interest Allocation, the maximum amount that can be transferred each month is your contract value in such source account divided by 12. If your source account is a 6-month Fixed Interest Allocation, the maximum amount that can be transferred each month is your contract value in such source account divided by 6. You may change the transfer amount once each contract year. If you have a DCA Fixed Interest Allocation, there is no minimum or maximum transfer amount; we will transfer all your money allocated to that source account into the subaccount(s) in equal payments over the selected 6-month or 1-year period. The last payment will include earnings accrued over the course of the selected period. 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 from a Fixed Interest Allocation or a DCA Fixed Interest Allocation 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 Liquid Assets subaccount. 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 the subaccounts to which the dollar amount of the source account is to be transferred, we will transfer the money to the subaccounts in which you are invested on a proportional basis. 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 to 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. A Fixed Interest Allocation or DCA Fixed Interest Allocation may not participate in the dollar cost averaging program and in systematic withdrawals at the same time. SimpleChoice --133029 25 You are permitted to transfer contract value to a Restricted Fund, subject to the limitations described above in this section and in "The Investment Portfolios." 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. o 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). o Additional premium paid: Up to the individual Restricted Fund percentage limit may be allocated to a Restricted Fund. If more than the individual limit has been requested to 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 Restricted Funds. o 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 in the future offer additional subaccounts 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. Of course, such change will not affect any dollar cost averaging programs in operation at the time. Transfers made pursuant to a dollar cost averaging program do not count toward the 12-transfer limit on free transfers. 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. You are permitted to reallocate between Restricted and non-Restricted Funds, subject to the limitations described above in this section and in "The Investment Portfolios." 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. Transfers made pursuant to automatic rebalancing do not count toward the 12-transfer limit on free transfers. 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 the Fixed Interest Division. The program may be used in conjunction with the systematic withdrawal option only if withdrawals are taken pro-rata. Automatic rebalancing is not available if you participate in dollar cost averaging. Automatic rebalancing will not take place during the free look period. 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 can provide satisfactory notice by sending a letter or by using a form that we prescribe. 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 effected on a pro-rata basis will not cause the automatic rebalancing program to terminate. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DEATH BENEFIT CHOICES -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Death Benefit During the Accumulation Phase During the accumulation phase, a death benefit, is payable when either the contract owner or the first of joint owners (under Option Package I only) or the annuitant (when a contract owner is not an individual), dies. 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. The death benefit paid depends on the option package you have chosen. 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 elects to delay receipt of the death benefit until a date after the time of death, the amount of the benefit payable in the future may be affected. The proceeds may be received in a single sum, applied to any of the income phase payment options, or, if available, paid over the beneficiary's life expectancy. (See "Systematic Withdrawals" above). A beneficiary's right to elect an income phase payment option or receive a lump-sum payment may have been restricted by a contract owner. If so, such rights or options will not be available to the beneficiary. SimpleChoice --133029 26 If we do not receive a request to apply the death benefit proceeds to an income phase payment 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. 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. You may select one of the option packages described below which will determine the death benefit payable. Option Package I is available only if the contract owner and the annuitant are not more than 85 years old at the time of purchase. Option Packages II and III are available only if the contract owner and annuitant are not more than 80 years old at the time of purchase. Option Packages II and III are not available where the Contract is held by joint owners. A change in ownership of the Contract may affect the amount of the death benefit payable. The death benefit may be subject to certain mandatory distribution rules required by federal tax law. The death benefit depends upon the option package in effect on the date the contract owner dies. The differences are summarized as follows:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Option Package I Option Package II Option Package III ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Death Benefit The greater of: The greatest of: The greatest of: on Death of the Owner: 1) the Standard death benefit; 1) the Standard death benefit; 1) the Standard death benefit; or 2) the contract value; or 2) the contract value; 2) the contract value; 3) the Annual Ratchet death 3) the Annual Ratchet death benefit. benefit; or 4) the 5% Roll-Up death benefit -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We may, with 30 days notice to you, designate any investment portfolio as a Special or Excluded Fund on existing contracts with respect to new premiums added to such investment portfolio, with respect to new transfers to such investment portfolio and with respect to the death benefits to which such designation applies. Selecting a Special or Excluded Fund may limit or reduce the death benefit. For the period during which a portion of the contract value is allocated to a Special 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. We use the Base Death Benefit to help determine the minimum death benefit payable under each of the death benefits described below. You do not elect the Base Death Benefit. The Base Death Benefit is equal to the greater of: 1) the contract value; and 2) the cash surrender value. SimpleChoice --133029 27 The Standard Death Benefit equals the greater of the Base Death Benefit and the sum of 1) and 2): 1) the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds; and 2) the Standard Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for amounts allocated to Covered or Special Funds; The Standard Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit equals: 1) premium payments allocated to Covered, Special and Excluded Funds, respectively; 2) reduced by a pro-rata adjustment for any withdrawal or transfer taken from Covered, Special and Excluded Funds, respectively. In the event of transfers from Excluded to Covered or Special Funds, the increase in the Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered Funds and/or Special Funds will equal the lesser of the reduction in the Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Excluded Funds and the contract value transferred. In the event of transfers from Covered or Special Funds to Excluded Funds, the increase in the Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Excluded Funds will equal the reduction in the Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered or Special Funds. Currently, no investment options are designated as Special Funds or Excluded Funds for purposes of calculating the Standard Death Benefit. The 5% Roll-Up Death Benefit, equals the greater of: 1) the Standard Death Benefit; and 2) the sum of the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds and the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered Funds and Special Funds. The 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered Funds, Special Funds and Excluded Funds equals the lesser of: 1) premiums, adjusted for withdrawals and transfers, accumulated at an annual rate of 5% for Covered Funds or Excluded Funds and 0% for Special Funds until the earlier of attainment of age 90 or reaching the cap (equal to 3 times all premium payments, as reduced by adjustments for withdrawals) and thereafter at 0%; and 2) the cap. A pro-rata adjustment to the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit is made for any withdrawals. The amount of the pro-rata adjustment for withdrawals will equal (a) divided by (b) times (c): where (a) is the contract value of the withdrawal; (b) is the contract value immediately prior to the withdrawal; and (c) is the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered, Special and Excluded Funds, respectively, immediately prior to the withdrawal. Please see Appendix E for examples of the pro-rata withdrawal adjustment for withdrawals. A pro-rata adjustment to the cap is made for any withdrawals. The amount of the pro-rata adjustment for withdrawals will equal (a) divided by (b) times (c): where (a) is the contract value of the withdrawal; (b) is the contract value immediately prior to the withdrawal; and (c) is the cap immediately prior to the withdrawal. Transfers from Excluded to Covered or Special Funds will reduce the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. The resulting increase in the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered or Special Funds will equal the lesser of the reduction in the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Excluded Funds and the contract value transferred. Transfers from Covered or Special Funds to Excluded Funds will reduce the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered or Special Funds on a pro-rata basis. The resulting increase in the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Excluded Funds will equal the reduction in the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered or Special Funds, respectively. Transfers from Special to Covered Funds will reduce the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Special Funds on a pro-rata basis. The resulting increase in the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered Funds will equal the reduction in the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Special Funds. Transfers from Covered to Special Funds will reduce the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered Funds on a pro-rata basis. The resulting increase in the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Special Funds will equal the reduction in the 5% Roll-Up Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered Funds. SimpleChoice --133029 28 The calculation of the cap is not affected by allocations to Covered, Special or Excluded Funds. For purposes of calculating the 5% Rollup Death Benefit, the following investment options are designated as "Special Funds": the ING Liquid Assets Portfolio, the Fixed Account, the Fixed Interest Division, and the TSA Special Fixed Account. No investment options are currently designated as Excluded Funds. The death benefit for Excluded Funds is the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds and for the Standard, Annual Ratchet and 5% Rollup death benefits is tracked for transfer purposes only. The Annual Ratchet Enhanced Death Benefit equals the greater of: 1) the Standard Death Benefit; and 2) the sum of the contract value allocated to Excluded Funds and the Annual Ratchet Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for amounts allocated to Covered or Special Funds. The Annual Ratchet Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit equals: 1) the initial premium allocated at issue to Covered, Special or Excluded Funds, respectively; 2) increased dollar for dollar by any premium allocated after issue to Covered, Special or Excluded Funds, respectively; 3) adjusted on each anniversary that occurs on or prior to attainment of age 90 to the greater of the Annual Ratchet Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered, Special or Excluded Funds from the prior anniversary (adjusted for new premiums, partial withdrawals and transfers between Covered, Special and Excluded Funds) and the current contract value. A pro-rata adjustment to the Annual Ratchet Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit is made for any withdrawals. The amount of the pro-rata adjustment for withdrawals will equal (a) divided by (b) times (c): where (a) is the contract value of the withdrawal; (b) is the contract value immediately prior to the withdrawal; and (c) is the Annual Ratchet Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered, Special and Excluded Funds, respectively, immediately prior to the withdrawal. Please see Appendix E for examples of the pro-rata withdrawal adjustment for withdrawals. Transfers from Excluded to Covered or Special Funds will reduce the Annual Ratchet Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Excluded Funds on a pro-rata basis. The resulting increase in the Annual Ratchet Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered or Special Funds will equal the lesser of the reduction in the Annual Ratchet Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Excluded Funds and the contract value transferred. Transfers from Covered or Special Funds to Excluded Funds will reduce the Annual Ratchet Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered or Special Funds on a pro-rata basis. The resulting increase in the Annual Ratchet Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Excluded Funds will equal the reduction in the Annual Ratchet Minimum Guaranteed Death Benefit for Covered or Special Funds, respectively. Currently, no investment options are designated as Special Funds or Excluded Funds for purposes of calculating the Annual Ratchet Death Benefit. Note: The enhanced death benefits may not be available in all states. Transfers Between Option Packages. You may transfer from one option package to another on each contract anniversary. A written request for such transfer must be received at our Customer Service Center within 60 days prior to the contract anniversary. No transfers between option packages are permitted: 1) after you attain age 80; or 2) if the Contract is owned by joint owners. A change of owner may cause an option package transfer on other than a contract anniversary. SimpleChoice --133029 29 The following minimum contract values must be met:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Transfers to Option Package I Transfers to Option Packages II or III --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Minimum Non- Non- Contract Value Qualified: Qualified: Qualified: Qualified: $15,000 $15,000 $15,000 $15,000 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you transfer between option packages, the then current roll-up cap does not reset. A change of owner may cause an option package transfer on other than a contract anniversary. Death Benefit During the Income Phase If any contract owner or the annuitant dies during the income phase, we will pay the beneficiary any certain benefit remaining under the income phase payment option 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 also 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, the addition will be allocated to the Liquid Assets subaccount, or its successor. Such addition to contract value will not affect the guaranteed death benefit. If the guaranteed death benefit is less than or equal to the contract value, the contract value will not change. The death benefits under each of the available options will continue based on the surviving spouse's age on the date that ownership changes. 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. Any premiums paid later will be subject to any applicable surrender charge. Any addition to contract value, as described above, 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. Continuation after Death -- Non-Spouse If the beneficiary or surviving joint owner is not the spouse of the owner, the contract may continue in force subject to the required distribution rules of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") apply. 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. 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, the addition will be allocated to the Liquid Assets subaccount, or its successor. Such addition to contract value will not affect the guaranteed death benefit. If the guaranteed death benefit is less than or equal to the contract value, the contract value will not change. The death benefit terminates upon continuation. If elected, the MGAB or MGWB feature terminates upon continuation. At subsequent surrender, any surrender charge applicable to premium payments 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. 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 Code. SimpleChoice --133029 30 If any owner of a non-qualified contract dies before the income phase payment start date, the death benefit payable to the beneficiary, calculated as described under "Death Benefit Choices" in this prospectus, will be distributed 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 sole 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: (1) all rights of the spouse as contract owner's beneficiary under the Contract in effect prior to such election will cease; (2) 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 (3) all rights and privileges granted by the Contract or allowed by ING USA will belong to the spouse as contract owner of the Contract. This election will be deemed to have been made by the spouse 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 a nonspouse, 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 a non-spouse owner's beneficiary 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. We will make payment of the proceeds on or before the end of the 5-year period starting on the owner's date of death. Such cash payment will be in full settlement of all our liability under the Contract. The death benefits under any of the Options will 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. Premiums are not permitted after such date. If a contract owner dies after the income phase payment start date, we will continue to distribute any benefit payable at least as rapidly as under the annuity option then in effect. 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 the owner. Effect of MGWB on Death Benefit If you die before Automatic Periodic Benefit Status under the MGWB 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. Please see "Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Rider-Death of Owner" for a description of the impact of the owner's death on the MGWB Rider. If you die during Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, the death benefit payable is your MGWB Withdrawal Account which equals the sum of the remaining MGWB periodic payments. Please see "Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Rider". -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE INCOME PHASE -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- During the income phase, you stop contributing dollars to your contract and start receiving payments from your accumulated contract value. SimpleChoice --133029 31 Initiating Payments. At least 30 days prior to the date you want to start receiving payments, you must notify us in writing of all of the following: o Payment start date; o Income phase payment option (see the income phase payment options table in this section); o Payment frequency (i.e., monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually); o Choice of fixed, and, if available at the time an income phase payment option is selected, variable or a combination of both fixed and variable payments; and o Selection of an assumed net investment rate (only if variable payments are elected). Your Contract will continue in the accumulation phase until you properly start income phase payments. Once an income phase payment option is selected, it may not be changed. Our current annuity options provide only for fixed payments. What Affects Payment Amounts. Some of the factors that may affect the amount of your income phase payments include: your age; gender; contract value; the income phase payment option selected; the number of guaranteed payments (if any) selected; whether you select fixed, variable or a combination of both fixed and variable payments; and, for variable payments, the assumed net investment rate selected. Variable payments are not currently available. Fixed Payments. Amounts funding fixed income phase payments will be held in the Company's general account. The amount of fixed payments does not vary with investment performance over time. Variable Payments. Amounts funding your variable income phase payments will be held in the subaccount(s) you select. Not all subaccounts available during the accumulation phase may be available during the income phase. Payment amounts will vary depending upon the performance of the subaccounts you select. For variable income phase payments, you must select an assumed net investment rate. Variable payments are not currently available. Assumed Net Investment Rate. If you select variable income phase payments, you must also select an assumed net investment rate of either 5% or 3 1/2%. If you select a 5% rate, your first income phase payment will be higher, but subsequent payments will increase only if the investment performance of the subaccounts you selected is greater than 5% annually, after deduction of fees. Payment amounts will decline if the investment performance is less than 5%, after deduction of fees. Please note that the 5% rate may not be available in all states. If you select a 3 1/2% rate, your first income phase payment will be lower and subsequent payments will increase more rapidly or decline more slowly depending upon changes to the net investment rate of the subaccounts you selected. For more information about selecting an assumed net investment rate, call us for a copy of the SAI. Minimum Payment Amounts. The income phase payment option you select must result in: o A first income phase payment of at least $50; and o Total yearly income phase payments of at least $250. If your contract value is too low to meet these minimum payment amounts, you will receive one lump-sum payment. Unless prohibited by law, we reserve the right to increase the minimum payment amount based on increases reflected in the Consumer Price Index-Urban (CPI-U) since July 1, 1993. Restrictions on Start Dates and the Duration of Payments. Income phase payments may not begin during the first contract year, or, unless we consent, later than the later of: o The first day of the month following the annuitant's 90th birthday; or o The tenth anniversary of the last premium payment made to your Contract. Income phase payments will not begin until you have selected an income phase payment option. If there are surrender charges remaining on the income phase payment start date, your income phase payment option must be either a life annuity or have a period certain of at least 10 years. Failure to select an income phase payment option by the later of the annuitant's 85th birthday or the tenth anniversary of your last premium payment may have adverse tax consequences. You should consult with a qualified tax adviser if you are considering delaying the selection of an income phase payment option before the later of these dates. SimpleChoice --133029 32 For qualified contracts only, income phase payments may not extend beyond: (a) The life of the annuitant; (b) The joint lives of the annuitant and beneficiary; (c) A guaranteed period greater than the annuitant's life expectancy; or (d) A guaranteed period greater than the joint life expectancies of the annuitant and beneficiary. When income phase payments start, the age of the annuitant plus the number of years for which payments are guaranteed may not exceed 100. If income phase payments start when the annuitant is at an advanced age, such as over 85, it is possible that the Contract will not be considered an annuity for federal tax purposes. See "Federal Tax Considerations" for further discussion of rules relating to income phase payments. Charges Deducted o If variable income phase payments are selected, we make a daily deduction for expense risks from amounts held in the subaccounts. Therefore, if you choose variable income phase payments and a nonlifetime income phase payment option, we still make this deduction from the subaccounts you select, even though we no longer assume any mortality risks. The amount of this charge, on an annual basis, is equal to 1.25% of amounts invested in the subaccounts. See "Fees and Expenses." o An administrative expense charge of 0.15% applies during the income phase. We deduct this charge daily from the subaccounts corresponding to the funds you select. The charge applies during the entire income phase. See "Fees and Expenses." Death Benefit during the Income Phase. The death benefits that may be available to a beneficiary are outlined in the income phase payment options table below. If a lump-sum payment is due as a death benefit, we will make payment within seven calendar days after we receive proof of death acceptable to us and the request for the payment in good order at our Customer Service Center. Unless your beneficiary elects 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 anytime without penalty. If continuing income phase payments are elected, the beneficiary may not elect to receive a lump sum at a future date unless the income phase payment option specifically allows a withdrawal right. We will calculate the value of any death benefit at the next valuation after we receive proof of death and a request for payment. Such value will be reduced by any payments made after the date of death. Beneficiary Rights. A beneficiary's right to elect an income phase payment 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. Partial Entry into the Income Phase. You may elect an income phase payment option for a portion of your contract value, while leaving the remaining portion invested in the accumulation phase. Whether the Tax Code considers such payments taxable as income phase payments or as withdrawals is currently unclear; therefore, you should consult with a qualified tax adviser before electing this option. The same or different income phase payment option may be selected for the portion left invested in the accumulation phase. Taxation. To avoid certain tax penalties, you or your beneficiary must meet the distribution rules imposed by the Tax Code. Additionally, when selecting an income phase payment option, the Tax Code requires that your expected payments will not exceed certain durations. See "Federal Tax Considerations". Payment Options. The following table lists the income phase payment options and accompanying death benefits available during the income phase. We may offer additional income phase payment options under the Contract from time to time. Once income phase payments begin, the income phase payment option selected may not be changed. Terms to understand: Annuitant(s): The person(s) on whose life expectancy(ies) the income phase payments are based. Beneficiary(ies): The person(s) or entity(ies) entitled to receive a death benefit, if any, under the income phase payment option selected. SimpleChoice --133029 33

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 since the last report. You have 30 days to notify our Customer Service Center of any errors or discrepancies contained in the report or in any confirmation notices. We will also send you copies of any shareholder reports of the investment portfolios in which Separate Account B invests, as well as any other reports, notices or documents we are required by law to furnish to you. Suspension of Payments The Company reserves the right to suspend or postpone the date of any payment or determination of values on any business day (1) when the New York Stock Exchange is closed; (2) when trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted; (3) 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 (4) 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 at the correct age or sex. 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 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. You will be given 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 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, we include a refund of any charges deducted from your contract value. Because of the market risks associated with investing in the portfolios, the contract value returned may be greater or less than the premium payment you paid. We may, in our discretion, require that premiums designated for investment in the subaccounts as well as premiums designated for a Fixed Interest Allocation be allocated to the specially designated subaccount (currently, the Liquid Assets Subaccount) during the free look period. Your Contract is void as of the day we receive your Contract and cancellation request. We determine your contract value at the close of business on the day we receive your written request. 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. SimpleChoice --133029 35 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, Inc. ("DSI"), 1475 Dunwoody Drive, West Chester, PA 19380 is the principal underwriter and distributor of the Contract as well as for other ING USA contracts. DSI, a New York corporation, is registered with the SEC as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"). DSI does not retain any commissions or compensation paid to it by ING USA for Contract sales. DSI 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 NASD member firms. DSI 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 DSI 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. DSI 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 8.0% of premium payments. In addition, selling firms may receive ongoing annual compensation of up to 1.10% 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 their firm's practices. Commissions and annual compensation, when combined, could exceed 8.0% of total premium payments. To the extent permitted by SEC and NASD rules and other applicable laws and regulations, DSI may pay or allow other promotional incentives or payments in the form of cash or other compensation to selling firms. DSI may also pay selling firms additional compensation or reimbursement for their efforts in selling Contracts to you and other customers, including for, among other things, training of sales personnel, marketing or other sales-related services they provide to us or our affiliates. This compensation or reimbursement is not reflected in the fees and expenses listed in the fee table section of this prospectus. In addition, DSI may enter into 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. Affiliated selling firms may include Baring Investment Services, Inc., Compulife Investor Services, Inc., Financial Network Investment Corporation, Granite Investment Services, Inc., Guaranty Brokerage Services, Inc., ING America Equities, Inc., ING Barings Corp., ING Direct Funds Limited, ING DIRECT Securities, Inc., ING Financial Advisers LLC, ING Financial Partners, Inc., ING Funds Distributor, LLC, ING Furman Selz Financial Services LLC, ING TT&S (U.S.) Securities, Inc., Multi-Financial Securities Corporation, PrimeVest Financial Services, Inc. and Systematized Benefits Administrators, Inc. DSI 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. 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. SimpleChoice --133029 36 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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. 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 variable 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. We are, or may be in the future, a defendant in various legal proceedings in connection with the normal conduct of our insurance operations. Some of these cases may seek class action status and may include a demand for punitive damages as well as for compensatory damages. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of any existing legal proceeding is not likely to have a material adverse effect on our ability to meet our obligations under the contract. Directed Services, Inc., the principal underwriter and distributor of the contract, 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.

You should keep the following in mind when reading it: SimpleChoice --133029 37 o 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; o Tax laws change. It is possible that a change in the future could affect contracts issued in the past; o This section addresses federal income tax rules and does not discuss federal estate and gift tax implications, state and local taxes, foreign taxes or any other tax provisions; and o 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 or purchased on a tax-qualified basis. Non-qualified contracts are purchased with after tax contributions and are not related to retirement plans that receive special income tax treatment under the 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 as plans entitled to special income tax treatment under Sections 401(a), 403(a), 403(b), 408, 408A or 457 of the Code. The ultimate effect of federal income taxes on the amounts held under a Contract, or annuity payments, depends on the type of retirement plan, on the tax and employment status of the individual concerned, and on your tax status. 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. Some retirement plans are subject to additional distribution and other requirements that are not incorporated into our Contract. Because the Plan is not part of the Contract, we are not bound by any Plan's terms or conditions. Contract owners, participants and beneficiaries 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 that qualify for the intended special federal income tax treatment. Taxation of Non-Qualified Contracts Taxation Prior to Distribution 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 receive deferral of taxation, the following requirements must be satisfied: Diversification. Internal Revenue Code Section 817(h) requires investments of a variable account be adequately diversified in order for a contract to be treated as annuity contract for federal income tax purposes. The Treasury has issued regulations which set the standards for measuring the adequacy of any diversification. To be adequately diversified, each variable investment option must meet certain tests. Each sub-account's corresponding fund has represented that it will meet the diversification standards that apply to your policy. It is intended that Separate Account B, through the subaccounts, will satisfy these diversification requirements. Investor Control. Although earnings under non-qualified contracts are generally not taxed until withdrawn, the Internal Revenue Service (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. The Treasury announced that it will issue 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. It is possible that the Treasury's position, when announced, 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. 38 Required Distributions. In order to be treated as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes, the 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 Code requirements, although no regulations interpreting these requirements have yet been issued. We intend to review such distribution provisions and modify them if necessary to assure that they comply with the applicable requirements when such requirements are clarified by regulation or otherwise. See "Death Benefit Choices" for additional information on required distributions from non-qualified contracts. Non-Natural Persons. The owner of any annuity contract who is not a natural person generally must include in income any increase in the excess of 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 prospective contract owner that is not a natural person may wish to discuss these with a tax adviser. 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., 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 (including amounts paid to you under the MGWB 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 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, less the aggregate amount of non-taxable distributions previously made. The contract value that applies for this purpose is unclear in some respects. For example, the living benefits provided under the Contract, i.e., the MGAB and MGWB, as well as the market value adjustment could increase the contract value that applies. Thus, the income on the Contracts could be higher than the amount of income that would be determined without regard to such benefits. As a result, you could have higher amounts of income than will be reported to you. 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. 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: o made on or after the taxpayer reaches age 59 1/2; o made on or after the death of a contract owner; o attributable to the taxpayer's becoming disabled; or o made as part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments for the life (or life expectancy) of the taxpayer. 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. SimpleChoice --133029 39 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: o First, from any remaining "investment in the contract" made prior to August 14, 1982 and exchanged into the Contract; o Next, from any "income on the contract" attributable to the investment made prior to August 14, 1982; o Then, from any remaining "income on the contract"; and o 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. However, the IRS has reserved the right to treat transactions it considers abusive as ineligible for favorable partial 1035 tax-free exchange treatment. The IRS has not provided any additional guidance on what it considers abusive. It is not certain whether the IRS would treat an immediate withdrawal or annuitization after a partial exchange as abusive. In addition, it is unclear how the IRS will treat a partial exchange from a life insurance, endowment, or annuity contract directly into an immediate annuity. Currently, we will accept a partial 1035 exchange from a non-qualified annuity into a deferred annuity or an immediate annuity as a tax-free transaction unless we believe that we would be expected to treat the transaction as abusive. 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 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 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 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. 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 Contract, 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. A contract owner contemplating any such transfer, pledge, assignment, or designation or exchange, should consult a tax adviser as to the tax consequences. 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. Treatment as an immediate annuity will have significance with respect to exceptions from the 10% early withdrawal penalty, to contracts owned by non-natural persons, and for certain policy exchanges. Multiple Contracts. The tax law requires 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 are treated as one non-qualified deferred annuity contract for purposes of determining the amount includible in such contract owner's income when a taxable distribution occurs. SimpleChoice --133029 40 Withholding. We will withhold and remit to the U.S. government 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. 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 not to have federal income tax withheld, you are still liable for payment of federal income tax on the taxable portion of the payment. Taxation of Qualified Contracts General The Contracts are designed for use with several types of 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. Special favorable tax treatment may be available for certain types of contributions and distributions. Adverse tax consequences may result from: contributions in excess of specified limits; distributions before age 59 1/2 (subject to certain exceptions); distributions that do not conform to specified commencement and minimum distribution rules; and in other specified circumstances. Therefore, no attempt is made to provide more than general information about the use of the Contracts with the various types of qualified retirement plans. Contract owners, annuitants, and beneficiaries are cautioned that the rights of any person to any benefits under these qualified retirement plans may be subject to the terms and conditions of the plans themselves, regardless of the terms and conditions of the Contract, but we shall not be bound by the terms and conditions of such plans to the extent such terms contradict the Contract, unless the Company consents. You will not generally pay taxes on earnings from the annuity contract described in this prospectus until they are withdrawn. When an annuity contract is used to fund one of these tax qualified retirement arrangements, you should know that the annuity contract does not provide any additional tax deferral of earnings beyond the tax deferral provided by the tax-qualified retirement arrangement. Tax-qualified retirement arrangements under Tax Code sections 401(a), 401(k), 403(a), 403(b) or governmental 457 plans also generally defer payment of taxes on earnings until they are withdrawn (or in the case of a non-governmental 457 plan, paid or made available to you or a designated beneficiary). However, annuities do provide other features and benefits which may be valuable to you. You should discuss your alternatives with your local representative. Distributions - General For qualified plans under Section 401(a) and 403(b), the Code requires that distributions generally must commence no later than the later of April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the plan participant for whose benefit the contract is purchased (i) reaches age 70 1/2 or (ii) retires, and must be made in a specified form or manner. If the plan participant is a "5 percent owner" (as defined in the Code), distributions generally must begin no later than April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the plan participant reaches age 70 1/2. For IRAs described in Section 408, distributions generally must commence no later than by April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the individual contract owner reaches age 70 1/2. Roth IRAs under Section 408A do not require distributions at any time before the contract owner's death. Please note that required minimum distributions under qualified Contracts may be subject to surrender charge and/or market value adjustment, in accordance with the terms of the Contract. This could affect the amount that must be taken from the Contract in order to satisfy required minimum distributions. Direct Rollovers If the Contract is used in connection with a pension, profit-sharing, or annuity plan qualified under sections 401(a) or 403(a) of the Code, or is a tax-sheltered annuity under section 403(b) of the Code, or is used with an eligible deferred compensation plan that has a government sponsor and that is qualified under section 457(b), any "eligible rollover distribution" from the Contract will be subject to direct rollover and mandatory withholding requirements. An eligible rollover distribution generally is any taxable distribution from a qualified pension plan under section 401(a) of the Code, qualified annuity plan under section 403(a) of the Code, section 403(b) annuity or custodial account, or an eligible section 457(b) deferred compensation plan that has a government sponsor, excluding certain amounts (such as minimum distributions required under section 401(a)(9) of the Code, distributions which are part of a "series of substantially equal periodic payments" made for life or a specified period of 10 years or more, or hardship distributions as defined in the tax law). SimpleChoice --133029 41 Under these requirements, federal income tax equal to 20% of the eligible rollover distribution will be withheld from the amount of the distribution. Unlike withholding on certain other amounts distributed from the Contract, discussed below, you cannot elect out of withholding with respect to an eligible rollover distribution. However, this 20% withholding will not apply if, instead of receiving the eligible rollover distribution, you elect to have it directly transferred to certain qualified plans. Prior to receiving an eligible rollover distribution, you will receive a notice (from the plan administrator or us) explaining generally the direct rollover and mandatory withholding requirements and how to avoid the 20% withholding by electing a direct rollover. Corporate and Self-Employed Pension and Profit Sharing Plans Section 401(a) of the Code permits corporate 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 the Contracts to accumulate retirement savings under the plans. Adverse tax or other legal consequences to the plan, to the participant, or to both may result if this Contract is assigned or transferred to any individual as a means to provide benefit payments, unless the plan complies with all legal requirements applicable to such benefits before transfer of the Contract. Employers intending to use the Contract with such plans should seek competent advice. Individual Retirement Annuities - General Section 408 of the Code permits eligible individuals to contribute to an individual retirement program known as an "Individual Retirement Annuity" or "IRA." These IRAs are subject to limits on the amount that can be contributed, the deductible amount of the contribution, the persons who may be eligible, and the time when distributions commence. Also, distributions from certain other types of qualified retirement plans may be "rolled over" on a tax-deferred basis into an IRA. Also, amounts in another IRA or individual retirement account can be rolled over or transferred tax-free to an IRA. There are significant restrictions on rollover or transfer contributions from Savings Incentive Match Plans for Employees (SIMPLE), under which certain employers may provide contributions to IRAs on behalf of their employees, subject to special restrictions. Employers may establish Simplified Employee Pension (SEP) Plans to provide IRA contributions on behalf of their employees. If you make a tax-free rollover of a distribution from any of these IRAs, 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. Individual Retirement Annuities - Distributions All distributions from a traditional IRA are taxed as received unless either one of the following is true: o The distribution is rolled over to a plan eligible to receive rollovers or to another traditional IRA or certain qualified plans in accordance with the Tax Code; or o You made after-tax contributions to the IRA. In this case, the distribution will be taxed according to rules detailed in the Tax Code. To avoid certain tax penalties, you and any designated beneficiary must also meet the minimum distribution requirements imposed by the Tax Code. The requirements do not apply to Roth IRA contracts while the owner is living. These rules may dictate one or more of the following: o Start date for distributions; o The time period in which all amounts in your account(s) must be distributed; or o Distribution amounts. Generally, you must begin receiving distributions from a traditional IRA by April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which you attain age 70 1/2. We must pay out distributions from the contract over one of the following time periods: o Over your life or the joint lives of you and your designated beneficiary; or SimpleChoice --133029 42 o Over a period not greater than your life expectancy or the joint life expectancies of you and your designated beneficiary. The amount of each periodic distribution must be calculated in accordance with IRS regulations. If you fail to receive the minimum required distribution for any tax year, a 50% excise tax is imposed on the required amount that was not distributed. The following applies to the distribution of death proceeds under 408(b) and 408A (Roth IRA - See below) plans. Different distribution requirements apply after your death. If your death occurs after you begin receiving minimum distributions under the contract, distributions must be made at least as rapidly as under the method in effect at the time of your death. Code section 401(a)(9) provides specific rules for calculating the required minimum distributions at your death. The death benefit under the contract and also certain other contract benefits, such as living benefits, may affect the amount of the required minimum distribution that must be taken. 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 die on September 1, 2004, your entire balance must be distributed to the designated beneficiary by December 31, 2009. However, if the 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: o Over the life of the designated beneficiary; or o Over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the designated beneficiary. If the designated beneficiary is your spouse, distributions must begin on or before the later of the following: o December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year of your death; or o December 31 of the calendar year in which you would have attained age 70 1/2. Roth IRAs - General Section 408A of the Code permits certain eligible individuals to contribute to a Roth IRA. Contributions to a Roth IRA, which are subject to limits on the amount of the 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 SIMPLE IRA, 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 from which the rollover was made 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. Roth IRAs - Distributions A qualified distribution from a Roth IRA is not taxed when it is received. A qualified distribution is a distribution: o 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 o Made after you attain age 59 1/2, die, become disabled as defined in the Tax Code, or for a qualified first-time home purchase. If a distribution is not qualified, it will be taxable to the extent of the accumulated earnings. Under special ordering rules, a partial distribution will first be treated generally as a return of contributions which is not taxable and then as taxable accumulated earnings. SimpleChoice --133029 43 Tax Sheltered Annuities - General Section 403(b) of the Code allows employees of certain Section 501(c)(3) organizations and public schools to exclude from their gross income the premium payments made, within certain limits, on a Contract that will provide an annuity for the employee's retirement. These premium payments may be subject to FICA (Social Security) tax. Distributions of (1) salary reduction contributions made in years beginning after December 31, 1988; (2) earnings on those contributions; and (3) earnings on amounts held as of the last year beginning before January 1, 1989, are not allowed prior to age 59 1/2, severance from employment, death or disability. Distributions allocable to salary reduction contributions, but not earnings on such contributions, may also be distributed upon hardship. Certain penalties may apply. Tax Sheltered Annuities - Loans Loans may be available if you purchased your contract in connection with a non-ERISA plan qualified under Section 403(b) of the Code ("TSA"). We do not currently permit loans under Section 403(b) Contracts that are subject to ERISA. If your contract was issued in connection with a TSA and the terms of your plan permit, you may take a loan from us, using your surrender value as collateral for the loan. Loans are subject to the terms of the Contract, your 403(b) plan, the Code and other federal and state regulations. The amount and number of loans outstanding at any one time under your TSA are limited, whether under our contracts or those of other carriers. We may modify the terms of a loan to comply with changes in applicable law. Various mandatory repayment requirements apply to loans, and failure to repay generally would result in income to you and the potential application of tax penalties. We urge you to consult with a qualified tax advisor prior to effecting a loan transaction under your Contract. We may apply additional restrictions or limitations on loans, and you must make loan requests in accordance with our administrative practices and loan request procedures in effect at the time you submit your request. Read the terms of the loan agreement before submitting any request. Any outstanding loan balance impacts the following: o Withdrawals and Charges: We determine amounts available for maximum withdrawal amounts, free partial withdrawals, systematic withdrawals and waiver of administrative charges by reducing the otherwise applicable amounts by the amount of any outstanding loan balance. o Death Benefits, Annuitization and Surrenders: We deduct the outstanding loan balance from any amounts otherwise payable and in determining the amount available for annuitization. o Riders: - Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit ("MGWB") Rider. The portion of the contract value used to pay off the outstanding loan balance will reduce the MGWB Withdrawal Account. We do not recommend the MGWB rider if loans are contemplated. - Minimum Guaranteed Accumulation Benefit ("MGAB") Rider. Generally, loan repayment periods should not extend into the 3-year period preceding the end of the Waiting Period, because transfers made within such 3-year period reduce the MGAB Base and the MGAB Charge Base pro rata based on the percentage of contract value transferred. Transfers between the TSA Special Fixed Account and the variable accounts will not be excluded from this treatment. Tax Sheltered Annuities - Distributions All distributions from Section 403(b) plans are taxed as received unless either of the following is true: o The distribution is rolled over to another plan eligible to receive rollovers or to a traditional individual retirement annuity/account (IRA) in accordance with the Tax Code; or o You made after-tax contributions to the plan. In this case, the amount will be taxed according to rules detailed in the Tax Code. Generally, you must begin receiving distributions by April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which you attain age 70 1/2 or retire, whichever occurs later, unless you had amounts under the contract as of December 31, 1986. In this case, distribution of these amounts generally must begin by the end of the calendar year in which you attain age 75 or retire, if later. The death benefit under the contract and also certain other contract benefits, such as the living benefits, may affect the amount of the required minimum distribution that must be taken. If you take any distributions in excess of the required minimum amount, then special rules require that some or all of the December 31, 1986 balance be distributed earlier. SimpleChoice --133029 44 Tax Consequences of Enhanced Death Benefit 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. There are limitations on the amount of incidental benefits that may be provided under pension and profit sharing plans. In addition, the provision of such benefits may result in currently taxable income to participants. Also, as stated above, the presence of the death benefit, as well as certain other contract benefits, could affect the amount of required minimum distributions. Other Tax Consequences As noted above, the foregoing comments about the federal tax consequences under the Contracts are not exhaustive, and special rules are provided with respect to other tax situations not discussed in this prospectus. Further, the federal income tax consequences discussed herein reflect our understanding of current law, and the law may change. Federal estate and state and local estate, inheritance and other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of distributions under a Contract depend on the individual circumstances of each contract owner or recipient of the distribution. A competent tax adviser should be consulted for further information. Possible Changes in Taxation Although the likelihood of legislative change 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. Federal Income Tax Withholding We will withhold and remit to the U.S. government 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. In certain circumstances, we may be required to withhold tax, as explained above. The withholding rates applicable to the taxable portion of periodic annuity payments (other than eligible rollover distributions) 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 (including withdrawals prior to the annuity starting date) and conversions of, and rollovers from, non-Roth IRAs to Roth IRAs. Regardless of whether you elect not to have federal income tax withheld, you are still liable for payment of federal income tax on the taxable portion of the payment. As discussed above, the withholding rate applicable to eligible rollover distributions is 20%. Assignments 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 code section 414(p); or to the Company as collateral for a loan. 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. SimpleChoice --133029 45 This page intentionally left blank.

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. 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 "LifeStyle Funds". Funds offered in a fund of funds structure (such as the LifeStyle Funds) may have higher fees and expenses than a fund that invests in debt and equity securities.

SimpleChoice - 133029 A3 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- APPENDIX B -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 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 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. For more information see the prospectus for the Fixed Account. 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. SimpleChoice - 133029 B1 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. See "Optional Riders" in the prospectus. 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. 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. See "Optional Riders" in the prospectus. 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 (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 the Fixed Account. SimpleChoice - 133029 B2 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 You may elect to participate in our dollar cost averaging program if you have at least $1,200 of Contract value in Fixed Account Interest Allocations 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. 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. More Information See the prospectus for Fixed Account II. SimpleChoice - 133029 B3 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- APPENDIX C -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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. Interests in the Fixed Interest Division are offered in certain states through an Offering Brochure, dated May 1, 2004. 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. SimpleChoice - 133029 C1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- APPENDIX D -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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, and that Option Package I was selected. In this example, $3,500 (10% of contract value) 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, $7,000 (10,500 - 3,500) 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 $420 ($7,000 x .06). The amount of the withdrawal paid to you will be $10,080 ($10,500 - $420). This example does not take into account any Market Value Adjustment or deduction of any premium taxes. SimpleChoice - 133029 D1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- APPENDIX E -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Withdrawal Adjustment for 5% Roll-Up Death Benefit Examples Example #1: The Contract Value (AV) is Lower than the Death Benefit Assume a premium payment of $100,000, AV at the time of withdrawal of $80,000 and a 5% Roll-Up minimum guarantee death benefit ("MGDB") at the time of withdrawal of $120,000. A total withdrawal of $20,000 is made. Calculate the Effect of the Withdrawal Pro-rata Withdrawal Adjustment to MGDB = $30,000 ($120,000 * ($20,000 / $80,000)) MGDB after Pro-rata Withdrawal = $90,000 ($120,000 - $30,000) AV after Withdrawal = $60,000 ($80,000 - $20,000) Example #2: The Contract Value (AV) is Greater than the Death Benefit Assume a premium payment of $100,000, AV at the time of withdrawal of $160,000 and a 5% Roll-Up minimum guarantee death benefit ("MGDB") at the time of withdrawal of $120,000. A total withdrawal of $20,000 is made. Calculate the Effect of the Withdrawal Pro-rata Withdrawal Adjustment to MGDB = $15,000 ($120,000 * ($20,000 / $160,000)) MGDB after Pro-rata Withdrawal = $105,000 ($120,000 - $15,000) AV after Withdrawal = $140,000 ($160,000 - $20,000) Example #3: The Contract Value (AV) is Equal to the Death Benefit Assume a premium payment of $100,000, AV at the time of withdrawal of $120,000 and a 5% Roll-Up minimum guarantee death benefit ("MGDB") at the time of withdrawal of $120,000. A total withdrawal of $20,000 is made. Calculate the Effect of the Withdrawal Pro-rata Withdrawal Adjustment to MGDB = $20,000 ($120,000 * ($20,000 / $120,000)) MGDB after Pro-rata Withdrawal = $100,000 ($120,000 - $20,000) AV after Pro-rata Withdrawal = $100,000 ($120,000 - $20,000)

SimpleChoice - 133029 F3 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- APPENDIX G -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Examples of Adjustments to the MGWB Withdrawal Account and the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount for Withdrawals in Excess of the Maximum Annual Withdrawal Amount ("Excess Withdrawal 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%). SimpleChoice - 133029 G1 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).

DESCRIPTION OF ING USA ANNUITY AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (formerly Golden American 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 consolidated financial statements appear in the Statement of Additional Information. As of December 31, 2003, ING USA had approximately $1,343.1 million in stockholder's equity and approximately $24.2 billion in total assets, including approximately $17 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 is licensed to do variable annuity business in the state of New York. SEPARATE ACCOUNT B 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. THE ADMINISTRATOR Effective January 1, 1997, Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa ("Equitable Life") and ING USA became parties to a service agreement pursuant to which Equitable Life agreed to provide certain accounting, actuarial, tax, underwriting, sales, management and other services to ING USA. Expenses incurred by Equitable Life in relation to this service agreement were reimbursed by ING USA on an allocated cost basis. Equitable Life billed ING USA $2,344,000, and $570,000 pursuant to the service agreement in 2003 and 2002, respectively. Effective January 1, 2004, Equitable Life was merged into ING USA. INDEPENDENT AUDITORS Ernst & Young LLP, Suite 2800, 600 Peachtree Street, Atlanta GA 30308, independent registered public accounting firm, performs annual audits of ING USA (formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company) 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, Inc. ("DSI"), 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 DSI. For the years ended 2003, 2002 and 2001 commissions paid by ING USA, including amounts paid by its affiliated Company, RLNY, to DSI aggregated $270,633,000, $287,208,000, and $223,321,000, respectively. All commissions received by the distributor were passed through to the broker-dealers who sold the contracts. DSI is located at 1475 Dunwoody Drive, West Chester, Pennsylvania 19380-1478. Under a management services agreement, last amended in 1995, ING USA provides to DSI certain of its personnel to perform management, administrative and clerical services and the use of certain facilities. ING USA charges DSI 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 DSI. 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 $27,898,000, $25,914,000, and $23,138,000, for the years ended 2003, 2002, and 2001, 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 are calculated for a Contract issued with the death benefit option with the highest mortality and expense risk charge. The mortality and expense risk charge associated with other death benefit options are lower than that used in the examples and would result in higher AUV's or contract values.

Contract Value in account for valuation date following purchase (3) multiplied by (4) $ 1,009.95 IRA PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL OPTION If the contract owner has an IRA contract and will attain age 70 1/2 in the current calendar year, distributions will be made in accordance with the requirements of Federal tax law. This option is available to assure that the required minimum distributions from qualified plans under the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") are made. Under the Code, distributions must begin no later than April 1st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the contract owner attains age 70 1/2. If the required minimum distribution is not withdrawn, there may be a penalty tax in an amount equal to 50% of the difference between the amount required to be withdrawn and the amount actually withdrawn. Even if the IRA Partial Withdrawal Option is not elected, distributions must nonetheless be made in accordance with the requirements of Federal tax law. ING USA notifies the contract owner of these regulations with a letter mailed in the calendar year in which the contract owner reaches age 70 1/2 which explains the IRA Partial Withdrawal Option and supplies an election form. If electing this option, the owner specifies whether the withdrawal amount will be based on a life expectancy calculated on a single life basis (contract owner's life only) or, if the contract owner is married, on a joint life basis (contract owner's and spouse's lives combined). The contract owner selects the payment mode on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis. If the payment mode selected on the election form is more frequent than annually, the payments in the first calendar year in which the option is in effect will be based on the amount of payment modes remaining when ING USA receives the completed election form. ING USA calculates the IRA Partial Withdrawal amount each year based on the minimum distribution rules. We do this by dividing the contract value by the life expectancy. In the first year withdrawals begin, we use the contract value as of the date of the first payment. Thereafter, we use the contract value on December 31st of each year. The life expectancy is recalculated each year. Certain minimum distribution rules govern payouts if the designated beneficiary is other than the contract owner's spouse and the beneficiary is more than ten years younger than the contract owner.

C-1 Report of Independent Auditors The Board of Directors ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company) and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related consolidated income statements, statements of changes in shareholder's equity, and statements of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003. 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as 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 consolidated financial position of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company changed the accounting principle for goodwill and other intangible assets effective January 1, 2002. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Atlanta, Georgia March 22, 2004 C-2 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.)

C-6 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (formerly known as Golden American Life Insurance Company) ("ING USA" or the "Company" as appropriate), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc. ("Lion" or "Parent"), is a stock life insurance company organized under the laws of the State of Iowa. ING USA was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Minnesota on January 2, 1973, in the name of St. Paul Life Insurance Company. On December 21, 1993, the Company redomesticated from Minnesota to Delaware. On January 1, 2004 several events occurred. First, the Company redomesticated from Delaware to Iowa. Secondly, on January 1, 2004 (the "merger date"), Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa ("Equitable Life"), USG Annuity & Life Company ("USG") and United Life & Annuity Insurance Company ("ULA") (the "Merger Companies"), merged with and into Golden American Life Insurance Company ("Golden American"). Also on January 1, 2004, immediately after the merger, Golden American changed its name to ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company. As of the merger date, the Merger Companies ceased to exist and were merged into ING USA. Lion is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of ING Groep N.V. ("ING"), a global financial services holding company based in The Netherlands. ING USA is authorized to do business in the District of Columbia and all states except New York. ING USA is licensed as a life insurance company under the laws of the State of Delaware until December 31, 2003 and Iowa since January 1, 2004. Prior to the merger date, ING USA was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Equitable Life from December 30, 2001 through December 31, 2003. Formerly, from October 24, 1997, until December 30, 2001, Equitable of Iowa Companies, Inc. ("EIC" or "Former Holding Company") directly owned 100% of Golden American's stock. On December 3, 2001, the Board of Directors of EIC approved a plan to contribute its holding of stock of Golden American to another wholly-owned subsidiary, Equitable Life. The contribution of stock occurred on December 31, 2001, following approval by the Insurance Department of Delaware. As of April 1, 2002, ING USA sold First Golden American Life Insurance Company of New York ("First Golden") to its sister company, ReliaStar Life Insurance Company ("ReliaStar"). ReliaStar, the parent of Security-Connecticut Life Insurance Company ("Security-Connecticut"), which in turn is the parent of ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York ("RLNY"), merged the First Golden business into RLNY operations and dissolved First Golden at book value for $27.7 million in cash and a receivable totaling $0.2 million from RLNY. The receivable from RLNY was assumed by Equitable Life, and ultimately by ING. The consideration was based on First Golden's statutory-basis book value. RLNY's payable to the Company was assumed by ING and subsequently forgiven. ING USA realized a loss of $3.0 million related to the sale of First Golden, which was recorded as a capital transaction. Approval for the merger was obtained from the Insurance Departments of the States of New York and Delaware. C-7 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As of October 1, 2003, RLNY's parent, Security-Connecticut merged with and into its parent, ReliaStar. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("FAS") No. 141, "Business Combinations" excludes transfers of net assets or exchanges of shares between entities under common control and is therefore covered by Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 16, "Business Combinations". RLNY presented combined results of operations including First Golden activity as of the beginning of the period ending December 31, 2002. The first three months of First Golden activity is not reflected in the ING USA statement of financial position or other financial information for the period ended December 31, 2002, as the amounts were not material. Description of Business The Company offers a portfolio of variable and fixed insurance products designed to meet customer needs for a tax-advantaged savings for retirement and protection from death. The Company's variable and fixed insurance products are marketed by broker/dealers, financial institutions, and insurance agents. The Company's primary customers are consumers and corporations. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Accounting for Goodwill and Intangible Assets During 2002, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") FAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". The adoption of this standard resulted in an impairment loss of $135.3 million. The Company, in accordance with FAS No. 142, recorded the impairment loss retroactive to the first quarter of 2002; prior quarters of 2002 were restated accordingly. This impairment loss represented the entire carrying amount of goodwill, net of accumulated amortization. This impairment charge was shown as a change in accounting principle on the December 31, 2002 Consolidated Income Statement. C-8 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Application of the nonamortization provision (net of tax) of the standard resulted in an increase in net income of $3.8 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2002. Had the Company been accounting for goodwill under FAS No. 142 for all periods presented, the Company's net income (loss) would have been as follow: Year ended December 31, (Millions) 2001 Reported net income (loss) $ (4.0) Add back goodwill amortization, net of tax 3.8 ----------------- Adjusted net income (loss) $ (0.2) =================
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities In June 1998, the FASB issued FAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended and interpreted by FAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement 133, and FAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities - an Amendment of FASB 133, and certain FAS 133 implementation issues". This standard, as amended, requires companies to record all derivatives on the balance sheet as either assets or liabilities and measure those instruments at fair value. The manner in which companies are to record gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair values of those derivatives depends on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. FAS No. 133 was effective for the Company's financial statements beginning January 1, 2001. Adoption of FAS No. 133 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations given the Company's limited derivative holdings and embedded derivatives. The Company occasionally purchases a financial instrument that contains a derivative that is "embedded" in the instrument. In addition, the Company's insurance products are reviewed to determine whether they contain an embedded derivative. The Company assesses whether the economic characteristics of the embedded derivative are clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the remaining component of the financial instrument or insurance product (i.e., the host contract) and whether a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded instrument would meet the definition of a derivative instrument. When it is determined that the embedded derivative possesses economic characteristics that are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the host contract and that a separate instrument with the same terms would qualify as a derivative instrument, the embedded derivative is separated from the host contract and carried at fair value. However, in cases where the host contract is measured at fair value, with changes in fair value reported in current period earnings or the Company is unable to reliably identify and measure the embedded derivative for separation from its host contracts, the entire contract is carried on the balance sheet at fair value and is not C-9 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- designated as a hedging instrument. The Company did not have embedded derivatives at December 31, 2003 or 2002. The Derivative Implementation Group ("DIG") responsible for issuing guidance on behalf of the FASB for implementation of FAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" recently issued Statement Implementation Issue No. B36, "Embedded Derivatives: Modified Coinsurance Arrangements and Debt Instruments" That Incorporate Credit Risk Exposures That Are Unrelated or Only Partially Related to the Credit Worthiness of the Obligor under Those Instruments ("DIG B36"). Under this interpretation, modified coinsurance and coinsurance with funds withheld reinsurance agreements as well as other types of receivables and payables where interest is determined by reference to a pool of fixed maturity assets or total return debt index may be determined to contain embedded derivatives that are required to be bifurcated. The required date of adoption of DIG B36 for the Company was October 1, 2003. The Company completed its evaluation of DIG B36 and determined that the Company had modified coinsurance treaties that required implementation of the guidance. The applicable contracts, however, were determined to generate embedded derivatives with a fair value of zero. Therefore, the guidance, while implemented, did not impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Guarantees In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No.45 ("FIN 45"), "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others", to clarify accounting and disclosure requirements relating to a guarantor's issuance of certain types of guarantees, or groups of similar guarantees, even if the likelihood of the guarantor's having to make any payments under the guarantee is remote. The disclosure provisions are effective for financial statements for fiscal years ended after December 15, 2002. For certain guarantees, the interpretation also requires that guarantors recognize a liability equal to the fair value of the guarantee upon its issuance. This initial recognition and measurement provision is to be applied only on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The Company has performed an assessment of its guarantees and believes that all of its guarantees are excluded from the scope of this interpretation. Variable Interest Entities In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No.51" (FIN 46). In December 2003, the FASB modified FIN 46 to make certain technical corrections and address certain implementation issues that had arisen. FIN 46 provides a new framework for identifying variable interest entities (VIEs) and determining when a company should include the assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interests and results of activities of a VIE in its consolidated financial statements. C-10 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In general, a VIE is a corporation, partnership, limited- liability corporation, trust, or any other legal structure used to conduct activities or hold assets that either (1) has an insufficient amount of equity to carry out its principal activities without additional subordinated financial support, (2) has a group of equity owners that are unable to make significant decisions about its activities, or (3) has a group of equity owners that do not have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive returns generated by its operations. FIN 46 requires a VIE to be consolidated if a party with an ownership, contractual or other financial interest in the VIE (a variable interest holder) is obligated to absorb a majority of the risk of loss from the VIE's activities, is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE's residual returns (if no party absorbs a majority of the VIE's losses), or both. A variable interest holder that consolidates the VIE is called the primary beneficiary. Upon consolidation, the primary beneficiary generally must initially record all of the VIE's assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests at fair value and subsequently account for the VIE as if it were consolidated based on majority voting interest. FIN 46 also requires disclosures about VIEs that the variable interest holder is not required to consolidate but in which it has a significant variable interest. At December 31, 2003, the Company held the following investments that, for purposes of FIN 46, were evaluated and determined that the investments do not require consolidation in the Company's financial statements: Asset Type Purpose Book Value (1) Market Value ---------------------- ------------------- ------------------- ------------------ Private Corporate Securities - synthetic leases; project financings; credit tenant leases Investment Holdings $ 1,057.2 $ 1,114.6 Foreign Securities - US VIE subsidiaries of foreign companies Investment Holdings 190.3 203.0 Commercial Mortgage Obligations (CMO) Investment Holdings 888.5 893.9 Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO) Investment Holdings and/or Collateral Manager 4.9 4.3 Asset-Backed Securities (ABS) Investment Holdings 479.9 482.3 Commercial Mortgage Backed Securities (CMBS) Investment Holdings 325.4 342.0 (1) Represents maximum exposure to loss except for those structures for which the Company also receives asset management fees.
New Accounting Pronouncements In July 2003, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA") issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 03-1, "Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for Certain Nontraditional Long-Duration Contracts and for Separate Accounts," which the Company intends to adopt during first quarter 2004. The impact on the financial statements is not known at this time.

During 2003, certain changes were made to the 2002 and 2001 Income Statements to reflect the correct balances. These changes had no impact on net income or net shareholder's equity of the Company. The following summarizes the corrections to each financial statement line item (in millions): Previously Reported Restated 2002 Adjustments 2002 ------------------- ------------------ ------------------ Fee income $ 204.0 $ 41.9 $ 245.9 ------------------- ------------------ ------------------ Total revenue $ 409.4 $ 41.9 $ 451.3 =================== ================== ================== Interest credited and other benefits to policyholders 276.5 41.9 318.4 ------------------- ------------------ ------------------ Total expense $ 451.6 $ 41.9 $ 493.5 =================== ================== ================== Previously Reported Restated 2002 Adjustments 2002 ------------------- ------------------ ------------------ Fee income $ 188.9 $ 30.2 $ 219.1 ------------------- ------------------ ------------------ Total revenue $ 276.8 $ 30.2 $ 307.0 =================== ================== ================== Interest credited and other benefits to policyholders 209.0 30.2 239.2 ------------------- ------------------ ------------------ Total expense $ 280.7 $ 30.2 $ 310.9 =================== ================== ==================
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. 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. C-12 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Investments All of the Company's fixed maturity and equity securities are currently designated as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value and unrealized gains and losses on these securities are included directly in shareholder's equity, after adjustment for related charges in deferred policy acquisition costs, value of business acquired, and deferred income taxes. 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 in accordance with FAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." Management considers the length of the time and the extent to which the market value has been less than cost; the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer; future economic conditions and market forecasts; and the Company's intent and ability to retain the investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for recovery in market 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 Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 99-20, "Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets". Under Issue No. EITF 99-20, a 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 accounted for as a realized loss. Realized capital gains and losses on all other investments are included in the consolidated income statements. Unrealized capital gains and losses on all other investments are reflected in shareholder's equity, net of related income taxes. 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. Fair values for fixed maturities are obtained from independent pricing services or broker/dealer quotations. Fair values for privately placed bonds are determined using a matrix-based model. The matrix-based model considers the level of risk-free interest rates, current corporate spreads, the credit quality of the issuer and cash flow characteristics of the C-13 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- security. The fair values for equity securities are based on quoted market prices. For equity securities not actively traded, estimated fair values are based upon values of issues of comparable yield and quality or conversion value where applicable. 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. Reverse dollar repurchase agreement and reverse repurchase agreement transactions are accounted for as collateralized borrowings, where the amount borrowed is equal to the sales price of the underlying securities. The investment in mutual funds represents an investment in mutual funds managed by the Company, and is carried at fair value. Mortgage loans on real estate are reported at amortized cost less impairment writedowns. If the value of any mortgage loan is determined to be impaired (i.e., when it is probable 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 the present value of expected cash flows from the loan, discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or to the loan's observable market price, or the fair value of the underlying collateral. The carrying value of the impaired loans is reduced by establishing a permanent writedown charged to realized loss. Policy loans are carried at unpaid principal balances, net of impairment reserves. Short-term investments, consisting primarily of money market instruments and other fixed maturities issues purchased with an original maturity of 91 days to one year, are considered available for sale and are carried at fair value, which approximates amortized cost. The Company's use of derivatives is limited to hedging purposes. The Company enters into interest rate and currency contracts, including swaps, caps, and floors 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. Changes in the fair value of open derivative contracts are recorded in net realized capital gains and losses. On occasion, the Company sells call options written on underlying securities that are carried at fair value. Changes in fair value of these options are recorded in net realized capital gains or losses. C-14 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs and Value of Business Acquired Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs ("DAC") is an asset, which represents certain costs of acquiring certain insurance business, which are deferred and amortized. These costs, all of which vary with and are primarily related to the production of new and renewal business, consist principally of commissions, certain underwriting and contract issuance expenses, and certain agency expenses. Value of Business Acquired ("VOBA") is an asset, which represents the present value of estimated net cash flows embedded in the Company's contracts, which existed at the time the Company was acquired by ING. DAC and VOBA are evaluated for recoverability at each balance sheet date and these assets would be reduced to the extent that gross profits are inadequate to recover the asset. The amortization methodology varies by product type based upon two accounting standards: FAS No. 60, "Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises" ("FAS No. 60") and FAS No. 97, "Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for Certain Long-Duration Contracts and Realized Gains and Losses from the Sale of Investments" ("FAS No. 97"). Under FAS No. 60, acquisition costs for traditional life insurance products, which primarily include whole life and term life insurance contracts, are amortized over the premium payment period in proportion to the premium revenue recognition. Under FAS No. 97, acquisition costs for universal life and investment-type products, which include universal life policies and fixed and variable deferred annuities, are amortized over the life of the blocks of policies (usually 25 years) in relation to the emergence of estimated gross profits from surrender charges, investment margins, mortality and expense margins, asset-based fee income, and actual realized gains (losses) on investments. Amortization is adjusted retrospectively when estimates of current or future gross profits to be realized from a group of products are revised. DAC and VOBA are written off to the extent that it is determined that future policy premiums and investment income or gross profits are not adequate to cover related expenses. C-15 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Activity for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 within VOBA was as follows: (Millions) Balance at December 31, 2000 $ 25.9 Adjustment for FAS No. 115 (1.3) Interest accrued at 7% 1.6 Amortization (6.0) ----------------- Balance at December 31, 2001 20.2 Adjustment for FAS No. 115 (5.1) Additions (3.3) Interest accrued at 7% 1.3 Amortization (4.6) ----------------- Balance at December 31, 2002 8.5 Adjustment for FAS No. 115 4.3 Additions - Interest accrued at (4% - 5%) 0.4 Amortization (4.7) ----------------- Balance at December 31, 2003 $ 8.5 =================
The estimated amount of VOBA to be amortized, net of interest, over the next five years is $7.7 million, $5.7 million, $4.1 million, $3.3 million and $2.6 million for the years 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively. Actual amortization incurred during these years may vary as assumptions are modified to incorporate actual results. As part of the regular analysis of DAC/VOBA, at the end of third quarter of 2002, the Company unlocked its long-term rate of return assumptions. The Company reset long-term assumptions for the separate account returns to 9.0% (gross before fund management fees and mortality and expense and other policy charges), as of December 31, 2002, reflecting a blended return of equity and other sub-accounts. The initial unlocking adjustment in 2002 was primarily driven by the sustained downturn in the equity markets and revised expectations for future returns. During 2002, the Company recorded an acceleration of DAC/VOBA amortization totaling $91.5 million before tax, or $59.5 million, net of $32.0 million of federal income tax benefit. The Company has remained unlocked during 2003, and reset long-term assumptions for the separate account returns from 9.0% to 8.5% (gross before fund management fees and mortality and expense and other policy charges), as of December 31, 2003, maintaining a blended return of equity and other sub-accounts. The 2003 unlocking adjustment from the previous year was primarily driven by improved market performance. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company recorded a deceleration of DAC/VOBA amortization totaling $41.3 million before tax, or $26.9 million, net of $14.4 million of federal income tax expense. C-16 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Policy Liabilities and Accruals Reserves for immediate annuities with life contingent payout contracts are computed on the basis of assumed investment yield, mortality, and expenses, including a margin for adverse deviations. Such assumptions generally vary by plan, year of issue and policy duration. Reserve interest rates range from 3.0% to 3.5% for all years presented. Investment yield is based on the Company's experience. Mortality and withdrawal rate assumptions are based on relevant Company experience and are periodically reviewed against both industry standards and experience. Other policyholders' funds include reserves for deferred annuity investment contracts and immediate annuities without life contingent payouts. Reserves on such contracts are equal to cumulative deposits less charges and withdrawals plus credited interest thereon (rates range from 2.4% to 7.5% for all years presented) net of adjustments for investment experience that the Company is entitled to reflect in future credited interest. Revenue Recognition For certain annuity contracts, charges assessed against policyholders' funds for the cost of insurance, surrender, expenses, actuarial margin and other fees are recorded as revenue as charges are assessed against policyholders. Other amounts received for these contracts are reflected as deposits and are not recorded as 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. When annuity payments with life contingencies begin under contracts that were initially investment contracts, the accumulated balance in the account is treated as a single premium for the purchase of an annuity and reflected as an offsetting amount in both premiums and current and future benefits in the Consolidated Income Statement. Separate Accounts Separate Account assets and liabilities generally represent funds maintained to meet specific investment objectives of contractholders who bear the investment risk, subject, in some cases, to minimum guaranteed rates. Investment income and investment gains and losses generally accrue directly to such contractholders. The assets of each account are legally segregated and are not subject to claims that arise out of any other business of the Company. Separate Account assets supporting variable options under universal life and annuity contracts are invested, as designated by the contractholder or participant under a contract (who bears the investment risk subject, in limited cases, to minimum guaranteed rates) in shares of mutual funds which are managed by the Company, or other selected mutual funds not managed by the Company. C-17 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Separate Account assets are carried at fair value. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, unrealized gains of $112.8 million and of $133.4 million, respectively, after taxes, on assets supporting a guaranteed interest option are reflected in shareholder's equity. Separate Account liabilities are carried at fair value, except for those relating to the guaranteed interest option. Reserves relating to the guaranteed interest option are maintained at fund value and reflect interest credited at rates ranging from 2.4% to 7.5% in 2003 and 2.4% to 11.0% in 2002. Separate Account assets and liabilities are shown as separate captions in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deposits, investment income and net realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Separate Accounts are not reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements (with the exception of realized and unrealized capital gains and losses on the assets supporting the guaranteed interest option). The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows do not reflect investment activity of the Separate Accounts. Reinsurance The Company utilizes indemnity reinsurance agreements to reduce its exposure to large losses in all 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 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. 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. C-18 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Deferred corporate tax is stated at the face value and is calculated for temporary valuation differences between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet and tax bases based on tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the assets are realized or the liabilities are settled. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. A deferred tax asset is recognized for the carryforward of unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available for compensation. 2.

Business and operating fundamentals are performing as expected. The remaining losses of $11.3 million as of December 31, 2003 included the following significant items: $3.6 million of unrealized losses related to securities reviewed for impairment under the guidance prescribed by EITF 99-20. This category includes U.S. government-backed securities, principal protected securities and structured securities which did not have an adverse change in cash flows for which the carrying amount was $195.1 million. $6.3 million of unrealized losses relating to the energy/utility industry, for which the carrying amount was $125.7 million. During 2003, the energy sector recovered due to a gradually improving economic picture and the lack of any material accounting irregularities similar to those experienced in the prior two years. The Company's year-end analysis indicates that the Company expects the debt to be serviced in accordance with the contractual terms. The remaining unrealized losses totaling $1.4 million relate to a carrying amount of $61.9 million. Of the losses more than 12 months in duration of $1.3 million, there were $0.6 million related to securities reviewed for impairment under the guidance prescribed by EITF 99-20. This category includes U.S. government-backed securities, principal protected securities and structured securities which did not have an adverse change in cash flows for which the carrying amount was $4.0 million.

C-21 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At December 31, 2003 and 2002, fixed maturities with fair values of $2.9 million and $7.5 million, respectively, were on deposit as required by regulatory authorities. The Company did not have any investments in a single issuer, other than obligations of the U.S. government, with a carrying value in excess of 10% of the Company's shareholder's equity at December 31, 2003. Beginning in April 2001, the Company entered into reverse dollar repurchase agreement and reverse repurchase agreement transactions 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. The dollar rolls and reverse repurchase agreements are accounted for as short-term collateralized financings and the repurchase obligation is reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The repurchase obligation totaled $120.1 and $40.0 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. 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 not material at December 31, 2003. The Company believes the counterparties to the dollar roll and reverse repurchase agreements are financially responsible and that the counterparty risk is immaterial. During 2003, the Company determined that five fixed maturities had other than temporary impairments. As a result, at December 31, 2003, the Company recognized a pre-tax loss of $5.7 million to reduce the carrying value of the fixed maturities to their fair value of $4.2 million. During 2002, the Company determined that thirteen fixed maturities had other than temporary impairments. As a result, at December 31, 2002, the Company recognized a pre-tax loss of $8.9 million to reduce the carrying value of the fixed maturities to their combined fair value of $123.5 million. During 2001, the Company determined that ten fixed maturities had other than temporary impairments. As a result, at December 31, 2001, the Company recognized a pre-tax loss of $0.7 million to reduce the carrying value of the fixed maturities to their fair value of $0.7 million. 3. Financial Instruments Estimated Fair Value The following disclosures are made in accordance with the requirements of FAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments". FAS No. 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. C-22 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 No. 107 excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company. The following valuation methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of the above financial instruments: Fixed maturities securities: The fair values for the actively traded marketable bonds are determined based upon the quoted market prices. The fair values for marketable bonds without an active market are obtained through several commercial pricing services which provide the estimated fair values. 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. Using this data, the model generates estimated market values which the Company considers reflective of the fair value of each privately placed bond. Fair values for privately placed bonds are determined through consideration of 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. Equity securities: Fair values of these securities are based upon quoted market value. 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. Cash, short-term investments and policy loans: The carrying amounts for these assets approximate the assets' fair values. Assets held in separate accounts: Assets held in separate accounts are reported at the quoted fair values of the individual securities in the separate accounts. Surplus notes: Estimated fair value of the Company's surplus notes were based upon discounted future cash flows using a discount rate approximating the current market value. Investment contract liabilities (included in future policy benefits and claims' reserves): With a fixed maturity: Fair value is estimated by discounting cash flows at interest rates currently being offered by, or available to, the Company for similar contracts. C-23 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Without a fixed maturity: Fair value is estimated as the amount payable to the policyholder upon demand. However, the Company has the right under such contracts to delay payment of withdrawals which may ultimately result in paying an amount different than that determined to be payable on demand. Liabilities related to separate accounts: Liabilities related to separate accounts are reported at full account value in the Company's historical balance sheet. Estimated fair values of separate account liabilities are equal to their carrying amount. The carrying values and estimated fair values of certain of the Company's financial instruments at December 31, 2003 and 2002 were as follows: 2003 2002 -------------------------- -------------------------- Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Value Value Value Value ---------- --------- ---------- --------- (Millions) Assets: Fixed maturity $ 5,223.3 $ 5,223.3 $ 4,936.4 $ 4,936.4 Equity securities 5.6 5.6 19.0 19.0 Mortgage loans on real estate 847.6 878.1 482.4 522.2 Policy loans 17.5 17.5 16.0 16.0 Cash and short-term investments 35.6 35.6 150.7 150.7 Assets held in separate accounts 17,112.6 17,112.6 11,029.3 11,029.3 Liabilities: Surplus notes 170.0 267.7 170.0 260.0 Investment contract liabilities: Deferred annuities 5,180.2 4,872.0 5,128.0 4,802.9 Supplementary contracts and immediate annuities 12.9 12.9 8.0 8.0 Liabilities related to separate account 17,112.6 17,112.6 11,029.3 11,029.3
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on available market information and judgment 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 gains or 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. C-24 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Derivative Financial Instruments Interest Rate Swaps Interest rate swaps are used to manage the interest rate risk in the Company's bond portfolio as well as the Company's liabilities.

8. Income Taxes In 2003 and 2002, ING USA joined in the filing of a consolidated federal income tax return with its former parent, Equitable Life and other affiliates. The Company had a tax allocation agreement with Equitable Life whereby the Company was charged for taxes it would have incurred were it not a member of the consolidated group and was credited for losses at the statutory tax rate. Prior to joining the Equitable Life consolidated group, the Company was the parent of a different consolidated group. At December 31, 2003, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $206.5 million for federal income tax purposes which are available to offset future taxable income. If not used, these carryforwards will expire between 2014 and 2016.

In consideration of an annual fee, payable June 30, Equitable Life guarantees that it will make funds available, if needed, to pay the contractual claims made under the provisions of ING USA's life insurance and annuity contracts. The agreement is not, and nothing contained therein or done pursuant thereto by Equitable Life shall be deemed to constitute, a direct or indirect guaranty by Equitable Life of the payment of any debt or other obligation, indebtedness, or liability, of any kind or character whatsoever, of ING USA. The agreement does not guarantee the value of the underlying assets held in separate accounts in which funds of variable life insurance and variable annuity policies have been invested. The calculation of the annual fee is based on risk based capital. No amounts were payable under this agreement as of December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001. Reinsurance Agreements ING USA participates in a modified coinsurance agreement with Equitable Life, covering a considerable portion of ING USA's variable annuities issued on or after January 1, 2000, excluding those with an interest rate guarantee. The financial statements are presented net of the effects of the agreement. Under this agreement, ING USA received a net reimbursement of expenses and charges of $132.5 million, $100.9 million and $224.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. This was offset by a decrease in policy acquisition costs deferred of $182.1 million, $143.5 million and $257.5 million, respectively, for the same periods. At December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, ING USA also had a payable to Equitable Life of $34.5 million, $7.1 million, and $22.6 million, respectively, due to the C-32 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- overpayment by Equitable Life of the cash settlement for the modified coinsurance agreement. ING USA entered into a reinsurance agreement with Security Life of Denver International, Ltd. ("SLDI"), an affiliate, covering variable annuity minimum guaranteed death benefits and minimum guaranteed living benefits of variable annuities issued after January 1, 2000. In March 2003, the Company amended its reinsurance agreement with SLDI. Under this amendment, the Company terminated the reinsurance agreement for all inforce and new business and recaptured all inforce business reinsured under the reinsurance agreement between the Company and SLDI retroactive to January 1, 2003 and the Company reduced its reinsurance recoverable related to these liabilities by $150.1 million. On March 28, 2003, SLDI transferred assets to the Company in the amount of $185.6 million. The difference in amounts transferred on March 28, 2003 and the reduction of the reinsurance recoverables as of January 1, 2003 reflects adjustments on the investment of the reinsurance recoverable as of January 1, 2003 reflects adjustments on the investment income on the assets and letter of credit costs between January 1, 2003 and the date of the asset transfer. It also encompasses the net effect of a recapture fee paid in the amount of $5.0 million offset by the receipt of a $24.1 million negative ceding commission. The net impact of which was deferred in policy acquisition costs and is being amortized over the period of estimated future profits. Reciprocal Loan Agreement ING USA maintains a reciprocal loan agreement with ING AIH, a Delaware corporation and affiliate, to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Under this agreement, which expires December 31, 2007, ING USA and ING AIH can borrow up to $40.0 million from one another. Prior to lending funds to ING AIH, ING USA must obtain the approval from the Department of Insurance of the State of Delaware. Interest on any ING USA borrowings is charged at the rate of ING AIH's cost of funds for the interest period plus 0.15%. Interest on any ING AIH borrowings is charged at a rate based on the prevailing interest rate of U.S. commercial paper available for purchase with a similar duration. Under this agreement, ING USA incurred interest expense of $66,087, $33,000, and $26,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. At December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, ING USA did not have any borrowings or receivables from ING AIH under this agreement. Surplus Notes ING USA issued multiple 30-year surplus notes (see below table). Payment of the notes and related accrued interest is subordinate to payments due to policyholders, claimant and beneficiary claims, as well as debts owed to all other classes of debtors, other than surplus note holders, of ING USA. Any payment of principal and/or interest made is subject to the prior C-33 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.)

Reinsurance At December 31, 2003, ING USA had reinsurance treaties with four unaffiliated reinsurers and two affiliated reinsurers covering a significant portion of the mortality risks and guaranteed death and living benefits under its variable contracts. ING USA remains liable to the extent its reinsurers do not meet their obligations under the reinsurance agreements. Reinsurance ceded in force for life mortality risks were $79.3 million and $90.7 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had net receivables of $13.0 million and $196.9 million, respectively for reinsurance claims, reserve credits, or other receivables from these reinsurers. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, these net receivables were comprised of the following: $15.0 million and $36.7 million for claims recoverable from reinsurers; $5.8 million and $6.3 million payable for reinsurance premiums; $(20.2) million and $137.2 million for reserve credits; and $21.1 million and $24.0 million for reinsured surrenders and allowances due from an unaffiliated reinsurer. Included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, excluding the modified coinsurance agreements, are net considerations to reinsurers of $8.9 million, $50.8 million and $30.3 million and net policy benefits recoveries of $34.1 million, $49.5 million and $21.8 million for the years ended December 21, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. ING USA participates in a modified coinsurance agreement with an unaffiliated reinsurer. The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented net of the effects of the treaty which increased (decreased) income by $(1.9) million, $(2.9) million and $(0.5) million for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. C-34 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities Leases For the year ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 rent expense for leases was $2.6 million and $2.4 million, respectively. The future net minimum payments under noncancelable leases for the years ended December 31, 2004 through 2008 are estimated to be $2.2 million, $2.3 million, $2.4 million, $2.4 million and $2.4 million, respectively, and $3.4 million, 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 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, 2003 and 2002, the Company had off-balance sheet commitments to purchase investments equal to their fair value of $25.2 million and $77.0 million, respectively. Litigation The Company is a party to threatened or pending lawsuits arising from the normal conduct of business. Due to the climate in insurance and business litigation, 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, in light of existing insurance, reinsurance and established reserves, it is the opinion of management that the disposition of such lawsuits will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's operations or financial position. Other Regulatory Matters Like many financial services companies, certain U.S. affiliates of ING Groep N.V. have received informal and formal requests for information since September 2003 from various governmental and self-regulatory agencies in connection with investigations related to mutual funds and variable insurance products. ING has cooperated fully with each request. In addition to responding to regulatory requests, ING management initiated an internal review of trading in ING insurance, retirement, and mutual fund products. The goal of this review has been to identify whether there have C-35 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- been any instances of inappropriate trading in those products by third parties or by ING investment professionals and other ING personnel. This internal review is being conducted by independent special counsel and auditors. Additionally, ING reviewed its controls and procedures in a continuing effort to deter improper frequent trading in ING products. ING's internal reviews related to mutual fund trading are continuing. The internal review has identified several arrangements allowing third parties to engage in frequent trading of mutual funds within our variable insurance and mutual fund products, and identified other circumstances where frequent trading occurred despite measures taken by ING intended to combat market timing. Most of the identified arrangements were initiated prior to ING's acquisition of the businesses in question. In each arrangement identified, ING has terminated the inappropriate trading, taken steps to discipline or terminate employees who were involved, and modified policies and procedures to deter inappropriate activity. While the review is not completed, management believes the activity identified does not represent a systemic problem in the businesses involved. These instances included agreements (initiated in 1998) that permitted one variable life insurance customer of Reliastar Life Insurance Company ("Reliastar") to engage in frequent trading, and to submit orders until 4pm Central Time, instead of 4pm Eastern Time. Reliastar was acquired by ING in 2000. The late trading arrangement was immediately terminated when current senior management became aware of it in 2002. ING believes that no profits were realized by the customer from the late trading aspect of the arrangement. In addition, the review has identified five arrangements that allowed frequent trading of funds within variable insurance products issued by Reliastar and by ING USA; and in certain ING Funds. ING entities did not receive special benefits in return for any of these arrangements, which have all been terminated. The internal review also identified two investment professionals who engaged in improper frequent trading in ING Funds. ING will reimburse any ING Fund or its shareholders affected by inappropriate trading for any profits that accrued to any person who engaged in improper frequent trading for which ING is responsible. Management believes that the total amount of such reimbursements will not be material to ING or its U.S. business. 13. Subsequent Event On January 1, 2004, Equitable Life, USG, and ULA, merged with and into the Company. Also on January 1, 2004, immediately after the merger, the Company changed its name to ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company. As of the merger date, the Merger Companies ceased to exist and were succeeded by ING USA. The merger was accounted for based on the pooling-of-interests method. FAS 141, excludes transfers of net assets or exchanges of shares between entities under common control, and notes that certain provisions under APB 16, provide a source of guidance for such transactions. C-36 ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company (A wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prior to the merger date, the Merger Companies were affiliated companies of ING USA and indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of ING. Equitable Life was domiciled in Iowa and offered various insurance products, including deferred and immediate annuities, variable annuities, and interest sensitive and traditional life insurance. ULA was also domiciled in Iowa and primarily offered annuity related insurance products, as well as life and health insurance that was ceded to other insurers. USG was domiciled in Oklahoma and offered various insurance products, including deferred fixed annuities, immediate annuities, and interest-sensitive life insurance.

* The Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A was filed with respect to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2003, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 12, 2003. The amendment No. 1 reflected an adjustment to the Company's net income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and did not impact results for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The adjustment for the six months ended June 30, 2003 related to a transposition error in the line item "Policy acquisition costs deferred," with a corresponding tax effect in the line item "Income tax expense (Benefit)" in Part 1, Item I, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Consequently, Part I, Item 2, Management's Narrative Analysis of the Results of Operations and Financial Condition, was updated to reflect these adjustments. Additionally, in accordance with Regulation S-X, the Certifications required by Section 302 and Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 were attached as exhibits to the 10-Q/A in Part II, Item 6, Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K. The Amendment No. 1 did not contain updates to reflect any events occurring after the original August 12, 2003 filing of the Company's Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2003. All information contained in the Amendment No. 1 was subject to updating and supplementing as provided in the Company's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as may be amended, for periods subsequent to the date of the original filing of the Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2003. C-38 Financial Statements and Exhibits (a) Financial Statements of Businesses Acquired Included are the financial statements of ELIC (the survivor to the merger with Ameribest Life Insurance Company, an affiliate, on January 1, 2003), USG, and ULA, prepared in conformity with statutory accounting principles ("SAP") (financial statements for these entities were not historically prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP")).

5 1. Pro Forma Consolidation Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations ("FAS 141"), excludes transfers of net assets or exchanges of shares between entities under common control, and notes that certain provisions under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16, Business Combinations ("APB 16"), provide a source of guidance for such transactions. In accordance with APB 16, financial information of the combined entity is presented as if the entities had been combined for the full year, and all comparative financial statements are restated and presented as if the entities had previously been combined, in a manner similar to a pooling-of-interests. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in a manner similar to a pooling-of-interests, in accordance with the provisions of APB 16 in order to present the condensed financial position and results of operations of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company ("ING USA"), Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa ("ELIC"), United Life & Annuity Insurance Company ("ULA"), and USG Annuity & Life Company ("USG"), as if the entities had previously been combined. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and income statements give effect to the consolidation transaction as if it had occurred on December 31, 2003 and January 1, 2000, respectively. Following is a description of the pro forma adjustments that have been made to the financial statements. All pro forma adjustments are elimination entries related to intercompany transactions between the entities, as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. There were no other pro forma adjustments. (1) Prior to the merger, ING USA and USG were wholly owned subsidiaries of ELIC. The pro forma adjustment eliminates the ELIC investment in ING USA and USG subsidiaries. (2) Prior to the merger, ING USA had an outstanding surplus note payable to ELIC. The pro forma adjustment eliminates the surplus note and related interest between ING USA and ELIC. (3) All of the shares of capital stock of ELIC, USG, and ULA, will be canceled and retired, and ceased to exist, as of the merger with ING USA. (4) Prior to the merger, ING USA and USG were wholly owned subsidiaries of ELIC. The pro forma adjustment eliminates the ELIC equity in ING USA and USG income. 6 2. Accounting for Goodwill and Intangible Assets The cumulative effect of change in accounting principle for the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statements for the year ended December 31, 2002, reflects the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, ("FAS 142"). During 2002, ING USA and the Merger Companies adopted FAS 142. The adoption of this standard resulted in an impairment loss of $1,298.5 million in 2002. This impairment loss represented the entire carrying amount of goodwill, net of accumulated amortization, and is recorded as a change in accounting principle for year ended December 31, 2002. Effective January 1, 2002, ING USA and the Merger Companies applied the non-amortization provision (net of tax) of the new standard, which resulted in an increase in net income of $37.0 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2002. Had ING USA and the Merger Companies been accounting for goodwill under FAS 142 for all periods presented, the Company's net income (loss) would have been as follows: Year ended December 31, (Millions) 2001 -------------- Pro forma consolidated net income (loss) $ (22.3) Add back goodwill amortization, net of tax 37.0 -------------- Adjusted pro forma consolidated net income $ 14.7 ==============
3. Statutory Merger On January 1, 2003, Ameribest Life Insurance Company ("AMB"), an affiliated life insurance company domiciled in Georgia, was merged with ELIC. As FAS 141 excludes transfers of net assets or exchanges of shares between entities under common control, the merger was based on certain provisions under APB 16, which provide a source of guidance for such transactions. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in a manner similar to a pooling-of-interests, in accordance with the provisions of APB 16, in order to present the condensed results of operations of ELIC and AMB as if the entities had previously been combined. The pro forma condensed consolidated income statements give effect to the consolidation transaction as if it had occurred on January 1, 2001.

Exhibit 99.1 Report of Independent Auditors Board of Directors and Stockholder ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company We have audited the accompanying statutory basis balance sheets of Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa ("the Company" which, effective January 1, 2004, merged with an affiliate ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc.) as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related statutory basis statements of operations, changes in capital and surplus, and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company presents its financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Iowa Division of Regulatory Agencies of the State of Iowa, Iowa Insurance Division, which practices differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The variances between such practices and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States are described in Note 1. The effects on the financial statements of these variances are not reasonably determinable but are presumed to be material.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 7 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Policies Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa (the Company) is domiciled in Iowa and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings, Inc., which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc. ("ING AIH"). Effective January 1, 2004, the Company merged into an affiliate, ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings, Inc. The Company offers various insurance products including deferred and immediate annuities, variable annuities, and interest sensitive and traditional life insurance. These products are marketed by the Company's career agency force, independent insurance agents, broker/dealers, and financial institutions. The Company's primary customers are individuals. The Company is presently licensed in 49 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. The preparation of financial statements of insurance companies requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed herein. On December 12, 2002, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a plan of merger with an affiliate of the Company, Ameribest Life Insurance Company, a Georgia domiciled company, effective January 1, 2003. The Company was the surviving corporation of the transaction. The 1,666,666.67 issued and outstanding shares of Ameribest Life Insurance Company were retired and canceled upon the effective time and date of the merger. The Georgia Department of Insurance approved the merger on December 18, 2002 and the Iowa Department of Insurance approved the merger on December 27, 2002, with the effective date of the merger being January 1, 2003. The accompanying financial statements have been restated as though the merger took place prior to all periods presented. Pre-merger separate company revenue, net loss and other capital and surplus adjustments for the twelve months ended December 31, 2002, were $2,082,573,000, $(119,795,000) and $210,415,000 respectively for the Company and $27,585,000, $(2,651,000) and $513,000 respectively for Ameribest. Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the State of Iowa (Iowa Insurance Division), which practices differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The most significant variances from GAAP are as follows: 8 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Investments: Investments in bonds and mandatorily redeemable preferred stocks are reported at amortized cost or market value based on the National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC") rating; for GAAP, such fixed maturity investments are designated at purchase as held-to-maturity, trading or available-for-sale. Held-to-maturity investments are reported at amortized cost, and the remaining fixed maturity investments are reported at fair value with unrealized capital gains and losses reported in operations for those designated as trading and as a separate component of other comprehensive income in stockholder's equity for those designated as available-for-sale. For structured securities, when a negative yield results from a revaluation based on new prepayment assumptions (i.e., undiscounted cash flows are less than current book value), an other than temporary impairment is considered to have occurred and the asset is written down to the value of the undiscounted cash flows. For GAAP, assets are re-evaluated based on the discounted cash flows using a current market rate. Impairments are recognized when there has been an adverse change in cash flows and the fair value is less than book. The asset is then written down to fair value. Investments in real estate are reported net of related obligations rather than on a gross basis. Real estate owned and occupied by the Company is included in investments rather than reported as an operating asset as under GAAP, and investment income and operating expenses include rent for the Company's occupancy of those properties. Changes between depreciated cost and admitted asset investment amounts are credited or charged directly to unassigned surplus rather than income as would be required under GAAP. SSAP 31 applies to derivative transactions prior to January 1, 2003. The Company also follows the newly adopted hedge accounting guidance in SSAP 86 for derivative transactions entered into or modified on or after January 1, 2003. Under this guidance, derivatives that are deemed effective hedges are accounted for in a manner which is consistent with the underlying hedged item. Derivatives used in hedging transactions that do not meet the requirements of SSAP 86 as an effective hedge are carried at fair value with the change in value recorded in surplus as unrealized gains or losses. Embedded derivatives are not accounted for separately from the host contract. Under GAAP, the effective and ineffective portions of a single hedge are accounted for separately. An embedded derivative within a contract that is not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risk of the host contract is accounted for separately from the host contract and valued and reported at fair value, and the change in fair value for cash flow hedges is credited or charged directly to a separate component of shareholders' equity rather than to income as required for fair value hedges. Valuation Reserves: The asset valuation reserve ("AVR") is determined by an NAIC-prescribed formula and is reported as a liability rather than as a valuation allowance or an appropriation of surplus. The change in AVR is reported directly to unassigned surplus. Under a formula prescribed by the NAIC, the Company defers the portion of realized gains and losses on sales of fixed-income investments, principally bonds and mortgage loans, attributable to changes in the general level of interest rates and amortizes those deferrals over the remaining period to maturity based on groupings of individual securities sold in five-year bands. The net deferral is reported as the interest maintenance reserve (IMR) in the accompanying balance sheets. 9 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Realized gains and losses on investments are reported in operations net of federal income tax and transfers to the IMR. Under GAAP, realized capital gains and losses are reported in the statements of operations on a pretax basis in the period that the asset giving rise to the gain or loss is sold and valuation allowances are provided when there has been a decline in value deemed other than temporary, in which case the provision for such declines is charged to income. Valuation allowances, if necessary, are established for mortgage loans based on the difference between the net value of the collateral, determined as the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to obtain and sell, and the recorded investment in the mortgage loan. Under GAAP, such allowances are based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, if foreclosure is probable, on the estimated fair value of the collateral. The initial valuation allowance and subsequent changes in the allowance for mortgage loans as a result of a temporary impairment are charged or credited directly to unassigned surplus, rather than being included as a component of earnings as would be required under GAAP. Policy Acquisition Costs: The costs of acquiring and renewing business are expensed when incurred. Under GAAP, acquisition costs related to traditional life insurance, to the extent recoverable from future policy revenues, are deferred and amortized over the premium-paying period of the related policies using assumptions consistent with those used in computing policy benefit reserves. For universal life insurance and investment products, to the extent recoverable from future gross profits, acquisition costs are amortized generally in proportion to the present value of expected gross margins from surrender charges and investment, mortality, and expense margins. Premiums: Life premiums are recognized as revenue when due. Premiums for annuity policies with mortality and morbidity risk, except for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts, are also recognized as revenue when due. Premiums received for annuity policies without mortality or morbidity risk and for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts are recorded using deposit accounting. 10 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Under GAAP, premiums for traditional life insurance products, which include those products with fixed and guaranteed premiums and benefits and consist primarily of whole life insurance policies, are recognized as revenue when due. Group insurance premiums are recognized as premium revenue over the time period to which the premiums relate. Revenues for universal life, annuities and guaranteed interest contracts consist of policy charges for the cost of insurance, policy administration charges, amortization of policy initiation fees and surrender charges assessed during the period. Benefit and Contract Reserves: Life policy and contract reserves under statutory accounting practices are calculated based upon both the net level premium and Commissioners' Reserve Valuation methods using statutory rates for mortality and interest. GAAP requires that policy reserves for traditional products be based upon the net level premium method utilizing reasonably conservative estimates of mortality, interest, and withdrawals prevailing when the policies were sold. For interest-sensitive products, the GAAP policy reserve is equal to the policy fund balance plus an unearned revenue reserve which reflects the unamortized balance of early year policy loads over renewal year policy loads. Reinsurance: For business ceded to unauthorized reinsurers, statutory accounting practices require that reinsurance credits permitted by the treaty be recorded as an offsetting liability and charged against unassigned surplus. Under GAAP, an allowance for amounts deemed uncollectible would be established through a charge to earnings. Statutory income recognized on certain reinsurance treaties representing financing arrangements is not recognized on a GAAP basis. Policy and contract liabilities ceded to reinsurers have been reported as reductions of the related reserves rather than as assets as required under GAAP. Commissions allowed by reinsurers on business ceded are reported as income when received rather than being deferred and amortized with deferred policy acquisition costs as required under GAAP. Subsidiaries: The accounts and operations of the Company's subsidiaries are not consolidated with the accounts and operations of the Company as would be required under GAAP. Nonadmitted Assets: Certain assets designated as "nonadmitted," principally deferred federal income tax assets, disallowed interest maintenance reserves, non-operating software, past-due agents' balances, furniture and equipment, intangible assets, and other assets not specifically identified as an admitted asset within the NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual are excluded from the accompanying balance sheets and are charged directly to unassigned surplus. Under GAAP, such assets are included in the balance sheet. Employee Benefits: For purposes of calculating the Company's postretirement benefit obligation, only vested participants and current retirees are included in the valuation. Under GAAP, active participants not currently vested are also included. 11 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Universal Life and Annuity Policies: Revenues for universal life and annuity policies consist of the entire premium received and benefits incurred represent the total of death benefits paid and the change in policy reserves. Under GAAP, premiums received in excess of policy charges would not be recognized as premium revenue and benefits would represent the excess of benefits paid over the policy account value and interest credited to the account values. Policyholder Dividends: Policyholder dividends are recognized when declared rather than over the term of the related policies. Deferred Income Taxes: Deferred tax assets are provided for and admitted to an amount determined under a standard formula. This formula considers the amount of differences that will reverse in the subsequent year, taxes paid in prior years that could be recovered through carrybacks, surplus limits and the amount of deferred tax liabilities available for offset. Any deferred tax assets not covered under the formula are non-admitted. Deferred taxes do not include any amounts for state taxes. Under GAAP, a deferred tax asset is recorded for the amount of gross deferred tax assets that are expected to be realized in future years and a valuation allowance is established for the portion that is not realizable. Surplus Notes: Surplus notes are reported as a component of surplus. Under statutory accounting practices, no interest is recorded on the surplus notes until payment has been approved by the Iowa Division of Insurance. Under GAAP, surplus notes are reported as liabilities and the related interest is reported as a charge to earnings over the term of the note. Statements of Cash Flows: Cash and short-term investments in the statements of cash flows represent cash balances and investments with initial maturities of one year or less. Under GAAP, the corresponding caption of cash and cash equivalents include cash balances and investments with initial maturities of three months or less. The effects of the preceding variances from GAAP on the accompanying statutory basis financial statements have not been determined, but are presumed to be material. Other significant accounting practices are as follows: Investments Investments are stated at values prescribed by the NAIC, as follows: Bonds not backed by other loans are principally stated at amortized cost using the interest method. 12 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Single class and multi-class mortgage-backed/asset-backed securities are valued at amortized cost using the interest method including anticipated prepayments. Prepayment assumptions are obtained from dealer surveys or internal estimates and are based on the current interest rate and economic environment. The retrospective adjustment method is used to value all such securities except for higher-risk asset backed securities, which are valued using the prospective method. Redeemable preferred stocks rated as high quality or better are reported at cost or amortized cost. All other redeemable preferred stocks are reported at the lower of cost, amortized cost, or market value. Nonredeemable preferred stocks are reported at market value or the lower of cost or market value as determined by the Securities Valuation Office of the NAIC ("SVO"). Common stocks are reported at market value as determined by the SVO and the related unrealized capital gains/(losses) are reported in unassigned surplus along with adjustment for federal income taxes. 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 market value has been less than cost; the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer; future economic conditions and market forecasts; and the Company's intent and ability to retain the investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for recovery in market 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. The Company uses derivatives such as interest rate swaps, caps and floors and options as part of its overall interest rate risk management strategy for certain life insurance and annuity products. As the Company only uses derivatives for hedging purposes, the Company values all derivative instruments on a consistent basis with the hedged item. Upon termination, gains and losses on those instruments are included in the carrying values of the underlying hedged items and are amortized over the remaining lives of the hedged items as adjustments to investment income or benefits from the hedged items. Any unamortized gains or losses are recognized when the underlying hedged items are sold. Interest rate swap contracts are used to convert the interest rate characteristics (fixed or variable) of certain investments to match those of the related insurance liabilities that the investments are supporting. The net interest effect of such swap transactions is reported as an adjustment of interest income from the hedged items as incurred. Interest rate caps and floors are used to limit the effects of changing interest rates on yields of variable rate or short-term assets or liabilities. The initial cost of any such agreement is amortized to net investment income over the life of the agreement. Periodic payments that are receivable as a result of the agreements are accrued as an adjustment of interest income or benefits from the hedged items. 13 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The derivatives are reported in a manner that is consistent with the hedged asset or liability. All derivatives are reported at amortized cost with the exception of the S&P Options. The S&P Options are reported at fair value since the liabilities that are being hedged are reported at fair value. The unrealized gains or losses from the S&P Options are reported in investment income. Upon termination of a derivative that qualified for hedge accounting, the gain or loss is deferred in IMR or adjusts the basis of the hedged item. The Company's insurance subsidiaries are reported at their underlying statutory basis net assets plus the admitted portion of goodwill. Dividends from subsidiaries are included in net investment income. The remaining net change in the subsidiaries' equity is included in the change in net unrealized capital gains or losses. Mortgage loans are reported at amortized cost, less allowance for impairments. Contract loans are reported at unpaid principal balances. Land is reported at cost. Real estate occupied by the company is reported at depreciated cost; other real estate is reported at the lower of depreciated cost or fair value. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the properties. For reverse repurchase agreements, Company policies require a minimum of 95% of the fair value of securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements to be maintained as collateral. Cash collateral received is invested in short-term investments and the offsetting collateral liability is included in miscellaneous liabilities. Reverse dollar repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateral borrowings, where the amount borrowed is equal to the sales price of the underlying securities. Short-term investments are reported at amortized cost. Short-term investments include investments with maturities of less than one year at the date of acquisition. Partnership agreements, which are included in other invested assets, are reported at the underlying audited GAAP equity of the investee. Residual collateralized mortgage obligations, which are included in other invested assets, are reported at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Realized capital gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method. Cash on hand includes cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are short-term investments that are both readily convertible to cash and have an original maturity date of three months or less. Short-term investments are carried at amortized cost, which approximates market value. 14 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aggregate Reserve for Life Policies and Contracts Life, annuity, and accident and health reserves are developed by actuarial methods and are determined based on published tables using statutorily specified interest rates and valuation methods that will provide, in the aggregate, reserves that are greater than or equal to the minimum or guaranteed policy cash value or the amounts required by law. Interest rates range from 2.25% to 10%. The Company waives the deduction of deferred fractional premiums upon the death of the insured. It is the Company's practice to return a pro rata portion of any premium paid beyond the policy month of death, although it is not contractually required to do so for certain issues. The methods used in valuation of substandard policies are as follows: For life, endowment and term policies issued substandard, the standard reserve during the premium-paying period is increased by 50% of the gross annual extra premium. Standard reserves are held on Paid-Up Limited Pay contracts. For reinsurance accepted with table rating, the reserve established is a multiple of the standard reserve corresponding to the table rating. For reinsurance with flat extra premiums, the standard reserve is increased by 50% of the flat extra. The amount of insurance in force for which the gross premiums are less than the net premiums, according to the standard of valuation required by the State of Iowa is $239,161,000 at December 31, 2003. The amount of reserves for policies on which gross premiums are less than the net premiums deficiency reserves is $1,514,000 at December 31, 2003. The tabular interest has been determined from the basic data for the calculation of policy reserves for all direct ordinary life insurance and for the portion of group life insurance classified as group Section 79. The tabular interest of funds not involving life contingencies is calculated as the current year reserves, plus payments, less prior year reserves, less funds added. Reinsurance Reinsurance premiums, commissions, expense reimbursements, and reserves related to reinsured business are accounted for on bases consistent with those used in accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of the reinsurance contracts. Reserves are based on the terms of the reinsurance contract and are consistent with the risks assumed. Premiums and benefits ceded to other companies have been reported as a reduction of premium revenue and benefits expense. Amounts applicable to reinsurance ceded for reserves and unpaid claim liabilities have been reported as reductions of these items, and expense allowances received in connection with reinsurance ceded have been reflected in operations. 15 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Data Processing Equipment Electronic data processing equipment is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation for major classes of assets is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Participating Insurance Participating business approximates less than 12% of the Company's ordinary life insurance in force and less than 1% of premium income. The amount of dividends to be paid is determined annually by the Board of Directors. Amounts allocable to participating policyholders are based on published dividend projections or expected dividend scales. Dividends of $13,683,000 and $23,406,000 were incurred 2003 and 2002, respectively. Pension Plans The Company provides noncontributory retirement plans for substantially all employees and certain agents. Pension costs are charged to operations as contributions are made to the plan. The Company also provides a contributory retirement plan for substantially all employees. Nonadmitted Assets Nonadmitted assets are summarized as follows: December 31 2003 2002 ---------------- --------------- (In Thousands) Deferred federal income taxes $ 154,178 $ 160,490 Agents' debt balances 376 267 Furniture and equipment 2,668 4,337 Leasehold improvements 902 1,033 Deferred and uncollected premium 145 426 Commuted commission 829 1,108 Suspense debts 4,264 3,586 Other 922 231 ---------------- --------------- Total nonadmitted assets $ 164,284 $ 171,478 ================ ===============
Changes in nonadmitted assets are generally reported directly in surplus as an increase or decrease in nonadmitted assets. Certain changes are reported directly in surplus as a change in unrealized capital gains or losses. 16 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cash Flow Information Cash and short-term investments include cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term fixed maturity instruments (with a maturity of less than one year at date of acquisition).

Separate Accounts Separate account assets and liabilities held by the Company represent funds held for the benefit of the Company's variable annuity policy and contract holders who bear all of the investment risk associated with the policies. Such policies are of a non-guaranteed nature. All net investment experience, positive or negative, is attributed to the policy and contract holders' account values. The assets and liabilities of these accounts are carried at fair value. Reserves related to the Company's mortality risk associated with these policies are included in life and annuity reserves. The operations of the separate accounts are not included in the accompanying statements of operations. Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts in the Company's statutory basis financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2003 financial statement presentation. 2. Permitted Statutory Basis Accounting Practices The financial statements of the Company are presented on the basis of accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the State of Iowa. The Iowa State Insurance Division recognizes only statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the State of Iowa for determining and reporting the financial condition and results of operations of an insurance company, for determining its solvency in under the Iowa Insurance Laws.

18 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As of December 31, 2003, the aggregate fair value of debt securities with unrealized losses and the time period that cost exceeded fair value are as follows: More than 6 months and less Less than 6 than 12 months More than 12 months below cost below cost months below cost Total ------------------- ------------------- ------------------- ------------------ (In Thousands) Fair value $ 521,371 $ 315,592 $ 53,556 $ 890,519 Unrealized loss 4,839 21,102 19,646 45,587
Of the unrealized losses more than 6 months and less than 12 months in duration of $21,102,000, there were $4,481,000 in unrealized losses that are primarily related to interest rate movement or spread widening for other than credit-related reasons. Business and operating fundamentals are performing as expected. The remaining unrealized losses of $16,621,000 as of December 31, 2003 included the following significant items: $9,004,000 of unrealized losses related to mortgage-backed and structure securities reviewed for impairment under the guidance prescribed by SSAP No. 43 Loan-backed and Structured Securities. This category includes U.S. government-backed securities, principal protected securities and structured securities which did not have an adverse change in cash flows for which the fair value was $118,777,000. $4,324,000 of unrealized losses related to the energy/utility industry, for which the fair value was $75,347,000. During 2003, the energy sector recovered due to a gradually improving economic picture. Current analysis indicates the debt will be serviced in accordance with the contractual terms. $1,895,000 of unrealized losses relating to non-domestic issues, with no unrealized loss exposure per country in excess of $1,858,000 for which the fair value was $11,796,000. Credit exposures are in the beverage industry in Italy and Great Britain. $1,398,000 of unrealized losses related to the telecommunications/cable/media industry, for which the fair value was $26,033,000. During 2003, the sector recovered somewhat due to a gradually improving economy. Credit exposure is primarily focused in what management believes to be the largest and most financially secure companies in the sector. 19 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Of the unrealized losses more than 12 months in duration of $19,645,000, there were $197,000 in unrealized losses that are primarily related to interest rate movement or spread widening for other than credit-related reasons. Business and operating fundamentals are performing as expected. The remaining losses of $19,448,000 as of December 31, 2003 included the following significant items: $17,930,000 of unrealized losses related to mortgage-backed and structured securities reviewed for impairment under the guidance prescribed by SSAP No. 43 Loan-backed and Structured Securities. This category includes U.S. government-backed securities, principal protected securities and structured securities which did not have an adverse change in cash flows for which the fair value was $31,213,000. $654,000 of unrealized losses related to the airline industry, for which the fair value was $10,725,000. During 2003, the airline industry continued to suffer from decreased passenger volumes partially offset by a gradually improving economy. The majority of the airline investments are comprised of Enhanced Equipment Trust Certificates for which the specific collateral is represented by newer models that are expected to be retained as individual airlines reduce their fleets. The remaining unrealized losses totaling $864,000 relate to a fair value of $9,161,000. The amortized cost and fair value of investments in bonds at December 31, 2003, by contractual maturity, are shown below.

Gross gains of $48,928,000 and $43,441,000 and gross losses of $11,521,000 and $37,946,000 during 2003 and 2002, respectively, were realized on those sales. A portion of the gains realized in 2003 and 2002 has been deferred to future periods in the interest maintenance reserve.

As part of its overall investment strategy, the Company has entered into agreements to purchase securities as follows: December 31 2003 2002 ---------------- ---------------- (In Thousands) Investment purchase commitments $ 37,678 $ 47,317
21 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company entered into reverse dollar repurchase transactions to increase its return on investments and improve liquidity. Reverse dollar repurchases involve a sale of securities and an agreement to repurchase substantially the same securities as those sold. The reverse dollar repurchases are accounted for as short term collateralized financing and the repurchase obligation is reported in borrowed money. The repurchase obligation totaled $126,983,000 and $95,972,777 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The securities underlying these agreements are mortgage-backed securities with a book value of $126,317,000 and $95,936,000 and a fair value of $127,423,000 and $97,433,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The securities have a weighted average coupon of 5.4% and have maturities ranging from December 2018 through December 2033. The primary risk associated with short-term collateralized borrowings is that the counterparty may 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, which was not material at December 31, 2003. The Company believes the counterparties to the reverse dollar repurchase agreements are financially responsible and that the counterparty risk is minimal. The Company participates in reverse repurchase transactions. Such transactions include the sale of corporate securities to a major securities dealer and a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the same security in the near term. The proceeds are invested in new securities of intermediate durations. As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the amounts outstanding on these agreements were $0 and $3,000,000, respectively. The securities underlying these agreements are mortgage-backed securities with a book value of $0 and $3,135,000 and a fair value of $0 and $3,163,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The maximum and minimum lending rates for new long-term commercial mortgage loans during 2003 were 6.20% and 2.78%. Fire insurance is required on all properties covered by mortgage loans and must at least equal the excess of the loan over the maximum loan which would be permitted by law on the land without the buildings. The maximum percentage of any loan to the value of collateral at the time of the loan, exclusive of insured or guaranteed or purchase money mortgages, was 89.7% on commercial properties. As of December 31, 2003, the Company held no mortgages with interest more than 180 days overdue. Total interest due on mortgages as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 was $54,000 and $23,000, respectively. 4. Derivative Financial Instruments Held for Purposes Other than Trading The Company enters into interest rate and currency contracts, including swaps, caps, floors, and options, to reduce and manage risks, which include the risk of a change in the value, yield, price, cash flows, exchange rates or quantity of, or a degree of exposure with respect to, assets, liabilities, or future cash flows, which the Company has acquired or incurred. Hedge accounting practices are supported by cash flow matching, scenario testing and duration matching. 22 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company uses interest rate swaps to reduce market risks from changes in interest rates and to alter interest rate exposure arising from mismatches between assets and liabilities. Interest rate swap agreements generally involve the exchange of fixed and floating interest payments over the life of the agreement without an exchange of the underlying principal amount. Currency swap agreements generally involve the exchange of local and foreign currency payments over the life of the agreements without an exchange of the underlying principal amount. Interest rate cap and interest rate floor agreements owned entitle the Company to receive payments to the extent reference interest rates exceed or fall below strike levels in the contracts based on the notional amounts. The Company uses S&P Options to hedge against an increase in the S&P Index. Such increase results in increased reserve liabilities, and the options offset this increased expense. The options are accounted for in a consistent manner with the underlying reserve liabilities, both of which are carried at far value with the change in value running through the income statement. If the options mature in the money, the amount received is recorded in income to offset the increased expense for the reserve liabilities. Premiums paid for the purchase of interest rate contracts are included in other invested assets and are being amortized to interest expense over the remaining terms of the contracts or in a manner consistent with the financial instruments being hedged. Amounts paid or received, if any, from such contracts are included in interest expense or income. Accrued amounts payable to or receivable from counterparties are included in other liabilities or other invested assets. Gains or losses realized as a result of early terminations of interest rate contracts are amortized to investment income over the remaining term of the items being hedged to the extent the hedge is considered to be effective; otherwise, they are recognized upon termination. Interest rate contracts that are matched or otherwise designated to be associated with other financial instruments are recorded at fair value if the related financial instruments mature, are sold, or are otherwise terminated or if the interest rate contracts cease to be effective hedges. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded as investment income. The Company manages the potential credit exposure from interest rate contracts through careful evaluation of the counterparties' credit standing, collateral agreements, and master netting agreements. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by counterparties on derivative contracts; however, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by any of these counterparties. The amount of such exposure is generally the unrealized gains in such contracts. 23 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The table below summarizes the Company's interest rate contracts included in other invested assets at December 31, 2003 and 2002: Notional Carrying Fair Amount Value Value ---------- ---------- --------- (In Thousands) December 31, 2003 Interest rate contracts: Swaps $ 316,584 $ - $ (9,103) Caps owned 595,000 1,231 10 Options owned 1,287,802 100,942 100,942 ---------- ---------- --------- Total derivatives $2,199,386 $ 102,173 $ 91,849 ========== ========== ========= December 31, 2002 Interest rate contracts: Swaps $ 266,098 $ - $ (4,428) Caps owned 743,000 2,508 908 Options owned 856,438 30,325 30,325 ---------- ---------- --------- Total derivatives $1,865,536 $ 32,833 $ 26,805 ========== ========== =========
5. Concentrations of Credit Risk The Company held less-than-investment-grade corporate bonds with an aggregate book value of $244,590,000 and $215,967,000 and with an aggregate market value of $256,968,000 and $201,208,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Those holdings amounted to 6.5% of the Company's investments in bonds and 3.5% of total admitted assets at December 31, 2003. The holdings of less-than-investment-grade bonds are widely diversified and of satisfactory quality based on the Company's investment policies and credit standards. The Company held unrated bonds of $96,917,000 and $73,548,000 with an aggregate NAIC market value of $99,937,000 and $79,056,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The carrying value of these holdings amounted to 2.5% of the Company's investment in bonds and 1.4% of the Company's total admitted assets at December 31, 2003. At December 31, 2003, the Company's commercial mortgages involved a concentration of properties located in California (18.74%) and Texas (9.18%). The remaining commercial mortgages relate to properties located in 38 other states. The portfolio is well diversified; covering many different types of income-producing properties on which the Company has first mortgage liens. The maximum mortgage outstanding on any individual property is $29,000,000. 24 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6. Annuity Reserves At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company's annuity reserves, including those held in separate accounts and deposit fund liabilities that are subject to discretionary withdrawal with adjustment, subject to discretionary withdrawal without adjustment, and not subject to discretionary withdrawal provisions are summarized as follows: Amount Percent ------------- ---------- (In Thousands) December 31, 2003 Subject to discretionary withdrawal (with adjustment): With market value adjustment $ 2,005,225 34.0% At book value less surrender charge 1,270,988 21.5 At fair value 1,020,807 17.3 ------------- ---------- Subtotal 4,297,020 72.8 Subject to discretionary withdrawal (without adjustment): At book value with minimal or no charge or adjustment 716,305 12.1 Not subject to discretionary withdrawal 885,463 15.1 ------------- ---------- Total annuity reserves and deposit fund liabilities before reinsurance 5,898,788 100.0% ========== Less reinsurance ceded 556,052 ------------- Net annuity reserves and deposit fund liabilities $ 5,342,736 ============= December 31, 2002 Subject to discretionary withdrawal (with adjustment): With market value adjustment $ 1,813,570 37.2% At book value less surrender charge 864,057 17.7 At fair value 1,079,649 22.2 ------------- ---------- Subtotal 3,757,276 77.1 Subject to discretionary withdrawal (without adjustment): At book value with minimal or no charge or adjustment 447,961 9.2 Not subject to discretionary withdrawal 669,775 13.7 ------------- ---------- Total annuity reserves and deposit fund liabilities before reinsurance 4,875,012 100.0% ========== Less reinsurance ceded 576,980 ------------- Net annuity reserves and deposit fund liabilities $ 4,298,032 =============

Employee Benefit Plans Pension Plan and Postretirement Benefits Effective December 31, 2001, the qualified noncontributory defined benefit retirement plans of the Company, along with certain other US subsidiaries of ING AIH, were merged into one plan, which is recognized in ING AIH's financial statements. As a result of this plan merger, the Company transferred its qualified pension asset to ING North America Insurance Corporation, an affiliate. In addition, the Company maintains a nonqualified unfunded Supplemental Employees Retirement Plan ("SERP"). The Company also provides certain health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees. A summary of assets, obligations and assumptions of the Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits Plans are as follows: Pension Benefits Other Benefits ----------------------- ---------------------- 2003 2002 2003 2002 ---------- ----------- ---------- ---------- (In Thousands) Change in benefit obligation Benefit obligation at beginning of year $ 8,115 $ 13,015 $ 6,694 $ 5,383 Service cost - 546 676 210 Interest cost 540 1,008 410 400 Contribution by plan participants - - 2,048 376 Actuarial gain (loss) 2,103 (6,153) (1,471) 373 Benefits paid (415) (301) (2,667) (847) Plan amendments - - - 799 ---------- ----------- ---------- ---------- Benefit obligation at end of year $ 10,343 $ 8,115 $ 5,690 $ 6,694 ========== =========== ========== ========== Change in plan assets Fair value of plan assets at beginning of year $ - $ - $ - $ - Actual return on plan assets - - - - Employer contribution 415 301 619 471 Plan participants' contributions - - 2,048 376 Benefits paid (415) (301) (2,667) (847) ---------- ----------- ---------- ---------- Fair value of plan assets at end of year $ - $ - $ - $ - ========== =========== ========== ==========

In addition, the Company has a pension benefit obligation and an other benefit obligation for non-vested employees as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 in the amount of $623,000 and $682,000, and $3,665,000 and $2,633,000 (OPEB obligation), respectively. Assumptions used in determining the accounting for the defined benefit plans and other post-retirement benefit plans as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 were as follows: 2003 2002 ---------------- ----------------- Weighted-average discount rate 6.25 % 6.75 % Rate of increase in compensation level 3.75 % 3.75 % Expected long-term rate of return on assets 8.75 % 9.00 %
The annual assumed rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered benefits (i.e., health care cost trend rate) for the medical plan is 10.0% graded to 5.0% thereafter. The health care cost trend rate assumption has a significant effect on the amounts reported. For example, increasing the assumed health care cost trend rates by one percentage point in each year would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for the medical plan as of December 31, 2003 by $48,000. Decreasing the assumed health care cost trend rates by one percentage point in each year would decrease the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for the medical plan as of December 31, 2003 by $46,000. 27 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 401(k) Plan The ING Savings Plan is a defined contribution plan, which is available to substantially all employees. Participants may make contributions to the plan through salary reductions up to a maximum of $12,000 for 2003 and $11,000 for 2002. Such contributions are not currently taxable to the participants. The Company matches up to 6% of pre-tax eligible pay at 100%. Company matching contributions were $569,000 and $681,000 for 2003 and 2002, respectively. 8. Separate Accounts Separate account assets and liabilities represent funds segregated by the Company for the benefit of certain policy and contract holders who bear the investment risk. All such policies are of a nonguaranteed return nature.

9. Reinsurance The Company is involved in both ceded and assumed reinsurance with other companies for the purpose of diversifying risk and limiting exposure on larger risks. To the extent that the assuming companies become unable to meet their obligations under these treaties, the Company remains contingently liable to its policyholders for the portion reinsured. To minimize its exposure to significant losses from retrocessionaire insolvencies, the Company evaluates the financial condition of the retrocessionaire and monitors concentrations of credit risk. Assumed premiums amounted to $1,912,796,000 and $1,299,151,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Company's ceded reinsurance arrangements reduced certain items in the accompanying financial statements by the following amounts: December 31 2003 2002 ------------- ------------- (In Thousands) Premiums $ 5,107 $ 5,223 Benefits paid or provided 7,356 8,481 Policy and contract liabilities at year end 585,318 604,861
During 2003 and 2002, the Company had ceded blocks of insurance under reinsurance treaties to provide funds for financing and other purposes. These reinsurance transactions, generally known as "financial reinsurance," represent financing arrangements. Financial reinsurance has the effect of increasing current statutory surplus while reducing future statutory surplus as the reinsurers recapture amounts. 30 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10. Federal Income Taxes The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return with its subsidiaries. The method of tax allocation is governed by a written tax sharing agreement. The tax sharing agreement provides that each member of the consolidated return shall reimburse the Company for its respective share of the consolidated federal income tax liability and shall receive a benefit for its losses at the statutory rate. The components of the net deferred tax asset (liability) at December 31 are as follows: December 31 2003 2002 ------------- ------------ (In Thousands) Total gross deferred tax assets $ 180,746 $ 166,200 Total deferred tax liabilities (6,096) (5,139) ------------- ------------ Net deferred tax asset 174,650 161,061 Deferred tax asset nonadmitted (154,178) (160,490) ------------- ------------ Net admitted deferred tax asset $ 20,472 $ 571 ============= ============ Decrease (increase) in nonadmitted asset $ 6,312 $ (63,007) ============= ============

32 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The provision for federal income taxes incurred and change in deferred taxes is different from that which would be obtained by applying the statutory Federal income tax rate to income, (including capital items) before income taxes. The significant items causing this difference are: Year Ended December 31, 2003 ----------------- (In Thousands) Ordinary income $ 9,263 Capital gains (losses) 4,994 ----------------- Total pre-tax income $ 14,257 ================= Provision computed at statutory rate $ 4,990 Refinement of deferred tax balances (4,529) Interest maintenance reserve 999 Dividends received deduction (1,483) Other 23 ----------------- Total $ - ================= Federal income taxes incurred $ 17,602 Change in net deferred income taxes (17,602) ----------------- Total statutory income taxes $ - =================
The Company has operations loss carryforwards of $265,165,000, which expire in 2017. The Company had a payable to the United States Treasury of $15,723,000 and a receivable from the United States Treasury of $55,341,000 for federal income taxes as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. In addition, under the inter-company tax sharing agreement, the Company has a net payable of $11,526,000 and a net receivable of $28,301,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, for federal income taxes with its subsidiaries. Prior to 1984, the Company was allowed certain special deductions for federal income tax reporting purposes that were required to be accumulated in a "policyholders' surplus account" (PSA). In the event those amounts are distributed to shareholders, or the balance of the account exceeds certain limitations prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code, the excess amounts would be subject to income tax at current rates. Income taxes also would be payable at current rates if the Company ceases to qualify as a life insurance company for tax reporting purposes, or if the income tax deferral status of the PSA is modified by future tax legislation. Management does not intend to take any actions nor does management expect any events to occur that would cause income taxes to become payable on the PSA balance. Accordingly, the Company has not accrued income taxes on the PSA balance of $14,388,000 at December 31, 2003. However, if such taxes were assessed, the amount of the taxes payable would be $5,036,000. No deferred tax liabilities are recognized related to the PSA. 33 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11. Investment in and Advances to Subsidiaries Amounts invested in and advanced to the Company's subsidiaries are summarized as follows: December 31 2003 2002 ---------------- ---------------- (In Thousands) Common stock $ 1,073,826 $ 811,079 (Payable to) receivable from subsidiaries (94,524) 2,102
Summarized financial information for these subsidiaries is as follows: December 31 2003 2002 ---------------- ---------------- (In Thousands) Revenues $ 5,835,610 $ 7,929,991 Income (loss) before net realized gains on investments 113,648 (235,729) Net loss 39,172 (277,136) Admitted assets 31,161,112 24,301,380 Liabilities 30,087,287 23,490,301
12. Capital and Surplus Under Iowa insurance regulations, the Company is required to maintain a minimum total capital and surplus which is the lower of $5,000,000 or risk based capital. Additionally, the amount of dividends which can be paid by the Company to its stockholder without prior approval of the Iowa Division of Insurance is limited to the greater of the statutory net gain from operations or ten percent of surplus at December 31 of the preceding year. In 2004, the Company can pay dividends of $118,000,000 without prior approved from the Iowa Division of Insurance. Life and health insurance companies are subject to certain Risk-Based Capital ("RBC") requirements as specified by the NAIC. Under those requirements, the amount of capital and surplus maintained by a life and health insurance company is to be determined based on the various risk factors related to it. At December 31, 2003, the Company met the RBC requirements. 34 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13. Fair Values of Financial Instruments Life insurance liabilities that contain mortality risk and all nonfinancial instruments have been excluded from the disclosure requirements. However, the fair values of liabilities under all insurance contracts are taken into consideration in the Company's overall management of interest rate risk, such that the Company's exposure to changing interest rates is minimized through the matching of investment maturities with amounts due under insurance contracts. The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments are summarized as follows: December 31 2003 2002 ------------------------ ------------------------ Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Value Value Value Value ------------ ------------ ------------ ----------- (In Thousands) Assets: Bonds $ 3,758,375 $ 3,873,679 $ 3,207,349 $ 3,333,300 Preferred stocks 441 441 441 441 Unaffiliated common stocks 108,680 112,959 285 285 Mortgage loans 1,024,031 1,086,163 864,597 948,750 Contract loans 126,488 126,488 130,790 130,790 Derivative securities 102,173 91,849 32,833 26,805 Short-term investments 104,000 104,000 22,821 22,821 Cash 32,325 32,325 5,181 5,181 Investment in surplus notes 135,000 167,805 135,000 191,228 Indebtedness from related parties 5,015 5,015 108,320 108,319 Separate account assets 1,044,925 1,044,925 959,377 959,377 Receivable for securities 176 176 210 210 Liabilities: Individual and group annuities 3,701,212 3,591,686 3,131,561 3,052,911 Guaranteed investment contracts 425,401 425,449 - - Deposit type contract 195,316 195,316 190,201 191,677 Policyholder funds 18,351 18,351 26,333 26,333 Indebtedness to related parties 133,258 133,258 66,265 66,265 Separate account liabilities 1,044,925 1,044,925 959,377 959,377
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value disclosures for financial instruments in the accompanying financial statements and notes thereto: Cash and short-term investments: The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying balance sheets for these financial instruments approximate their fair values. 35 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fixed maturities and equity securities: The fair values for bonds, preferred stocks and common stocks, reported herein, are based on quoted market prices, where available. For securities not actively traded, fair values are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services or, in the case of private placements, collateralized mortgage obligations and other mortgage derivative investments, are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows. The discount rates used vary as a function of factors such as yield, credit quality, and maturity, which fall within a range between 2% and 11% over the total portfolio. Fair values determined on this basis can differ from values published by the NAIC Securities Valuation Office. Fair value as determined by the NAIC as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 is $4,968,378,000 and $4,232,177,000, respectively. Mortgage loans: Estimated fair values for commercial real estate loans were generated using a discounted cash flow approach. Loans in good standing are discounted using interest rates determined by U.S. Treasury yields on December 31 and spreads applied on new loans with similar characteristics. The amortizing features of all loans are incorporated in the valuation. Where data on option features is available, option values are determined using a binomial valuation method, and are incorporated into the mortgage valuation. Restructured loans are valued in the same manner; however, these loans were discounted at a greater spread to reflect increased risk. All residential loans are valued at their outstanding principal balances, which approximate their fair values. Derivative financial instruments: Fair values for on-balance-sheet derivative financial instruments (caps, options and floors) and off-balance-sheet derivative financial instruments (swaps) are based on broker/dealer valuations or on internal discounted cash flow pricing models taking into account current cash flow assumptions and the counterparties' credit standing. Investment in surplus notes: Estimated fair values for investment in surplus notes are generated using a discounted cash flow approach. Cash flows were discounted using interest rates determined by U.S. Treasury yields on December 31 and spreads applied on surplus notes with similar characteristics. Guaranteed investment contracts: The fair values of the Company's guaranteed investment contracts are estimated using discounted cash flow calculations, based on interest rates currently being offered for similar contracts with maturities consistent with those remaining for the contracts being valued. Other investment-type insurance contracts: The fair values of the Company's deferred annuity contracts are estimated based on the cash surrender values. The carrying values of other policyholder liabilities, including immediate annuities, dividend accumulations, supplementary contracts without life contingencies, and premium deposits, approximate their fair values. The carrying value of all other financial instruments approximates their fair value. 36 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 14. Commitments and Contingencies Subsidiary Guarantees The Company guarantees contractual policy claims of its subsidiaries, Golden American Life Insurance Company and USG Annuity & Life Company. In the unlikely event that Golden American Life Insurance Company and USG Annuity & Life Company were unable to fulfill their obligations to policyholders, the Company would be obligated to assume the guaranteed policy obligations, but any ultimate contingent losses in connection with such guarantees will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's future operations or financial position. The Company leases its home office space and certain other equipment under operating leases that expire through 2017. During the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, rent expense totaled $5,528,000 and $4,951,000, respectively. At December 31, 2003, minimum rental payments due under all non-cancelable operating leases are: 2004 - $5,326,000, 2005 - $5,324,000, 2006 - $5,324,000, 2007 - $5,135,000 and 2008 - $4,948,000 and $42,466,000 thereafter. Litigation The Company is a party to threatened or pending lawsuits arising from the normal conduct of business. Due to the climate in insurance and business litigation, 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 pending lawsuits, in light of existing insurance, reinsurance and established reserves, it is the opinion of management that the disposition of such lawsuits will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's operations or financial position. Other Matters Like many financial services companies, certain U.S. affiliates of ING Groep N.V. ("ING"), the Company's ultimate parent, ave received informal and formal requests for information since September 2003 from various governmental and self-regulatory agencies in connection with investigations related to mutual funds and variable insurance products. ING has cooperated fully with each request. In addition to reporting to regulatory requests, ING management initiated an internal review of trading in ING insurance, retirement, and mutual fund products. The goal of this review has been to identify whether there have been any instances of inappropriate trading in those products by third parties or by ING investment professionals and other ING personnel. This internal review is being conducted by independent special counsel and auditors. Additionally, ING reviewed its controls and procedures in a continuing effort to deter improper frequent trading in ING products. ING's internal reviews related to mutual fund trading are continuing. 37 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The internal review has identified several arrangements allowing third parties to engage in frequent trading of mutual funds within our variable insurance and mutual fund products, and identified other circumstances where frequent trading occurred despite measures taken by ING intended to combat market timing. Most of the identified arrangements were initiated prior to ING's acquisition of the businesses in question. In each arrangement identified, ING has terminated the inappropriate trading, taken steps to discipline or terminate employees who were involved, and modified policies and procedures to deter inappropriate activity. While the review is not completed, management believes the activity identified does not represent a systemic problem in the businesses involved. These instances included agreements (initiated in 1998) that permitted on variable life insurance customer or ReliaStar Life Insurance Company ("ReliaStar"), an affiliate of the Company, to engage in frequent trading, and to submit orders until 4pm Central Time, instead of 4pm Eastern Time. ReliaStar was acquired by ING in 2000. The late trading arrangement was immediately terminated when current senior management became aware of it in 2002. ING believes that no profits were realized by the customer from the late trading aspect of the arrangement. ING will reimburse any ING Fund or its shareholders affected by inappropriate trading for any profits that accrued to any person who engaged in improper frequent trading for which ING is responsible. Management believes that the total amount of such reimbursements will not be material to ING or its U.S. business. 15. Financing Agreements The Company maintains a revolving loan agreement with SunTrust Bank, Atlanta (the "Bank"). Under this agreement, which expires July 30, 2004, the Company can borrow up to $100,000,000 from the Bank. Interest on any borrowing accrues at an annual rate equal to: (1) the cost of funds for the Bank for the period applicable for the advance plus 0.225% or (2) a rate quoted by the Bank to the Company for the borrowing. Under the agreement, the Company incurred interest expense of $0 and $171,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had $0 payable to the Bank. The Company also maintains a revolving loan agreement with Bank of New York, New York (the "BONY"). Under this agreement, the Company can borrow up to $100,000,000 from BONY. Interest on any of the Company borrowing accrues at an annual rate equal to: (1) the cost of funds for BONY for the period applicable for the advance plus 0.35% or (2) a rate quoted by BONY to the Company for the borrowing. Under this agreement, the Company incurred interest expense of $0 and $16,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had $0 payable to BONY. 38 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 16.

Total fees under the agreement were approximately $14,461,000 and $11,118,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Inter-insurer Services Agreement: The Company has entered into a services agreement with certain of its affiliated insurance companies in the United States ("affiliated insurers") whereby the affiliated insurers provide certain administrative, management, professional, advisory, consulting and other services to each other. Net amounts received under these agreements were $15,551,000 and $3,029,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Reciprocal Loan Agreement: The Company maintains a reciprocal loan agreement with ING AIH, to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Under this agreement, which expires December 31, 2007, the Company and ING AIH can borrow up to $104,000,000 from one another. Interest on any Company borrowing is charged at the rate of ING AIH's cost of funds for the interest period plus 0.15%. Interest on any ING AIH borrowings is charged at a rate based on the prevailing interest rate of U.S. commercial paper available for purchase with a similar duration. Under this agreement, the Company incurred interest expense of $61,000 and interest income of $730,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003.

The agreement provides for the manner of calculation and the amounts/timing of the payments between the parties as well as other related matters in connection with the filing of consolidated federal income tax returns. The Company has also entered into a state tax sharing agreement with ING AIH and each of the specific subsidiaries that are parties to the agreement. The state tax agreement applies to situations in which ING AIH and all or some of the subsidiaries join in the filing of a state or local franchise, income tax or other tax return on a consolidated, combined or unitary basis. 39 Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Services Agreement with ING Financial Adviser, LLC: The Company has entered into a services agreement with ING Financial Advisors, LLC ("ING FA") to provide certain administrative, management, professional advisory, consulting and other services to the Company for the benefit of its customers. Charges for these services are to be determined in accordance with fair and reasonable standards with neither party realizing a profit nor incurring a loss as a result of the services provided to the Company. The Company will reimburse ING FA for direct and indirect costs incurred on behalf of the Company. Subsidiaries The Company owned, as of December 31, 2003, 100% of the capital stock, valued on the equity basis of, USG Annuity and Life Insurance Company (an Oklahoma domestic insurer) and Golden American Life Insurance Company (a Delaware domestic insurer). Assets and liabilities along with related revenues and expenses recorded as a result of transactions and agreements with affiliates may not be the same as those recorded if the Company was not a wholly-owned subsidiary of its parent. 17. Guaranty Fund Assessments Insurance companies are assessed the costs of funding the insolvencies of other insurance companies by the various state guaranty associations, generally based on the amount of premiums companies collect in that state. The Company accrues the cost of future guaranty fund assessments based on estimates of insurance company insolvencies provided by the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Associations and the amount of premiums written in each state. The Company has estimated this liability to be $3,492,000 and $3,494,000 as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and has recorded a liability. The Company has also recorded an asset of $81,000 and $473,000 as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, for future credits to premium taxes for assessments already paid. 18. Subsequent Events Golden American Life Insurance Company ("Golden"), requested that the Delaware Insurance Department approve the redomestication of Golden from Delaware to Iowa effective January 1, 2004. The Company, United Life & Annuity Insurance Company ("ULA"), and USG Annuity and Life Company ("USG") requested the Iowa Division of Insurance (for the Company and ULA) and the Oklahoma Department of Insurance (for USG) approve the merger of the affiliated life insurance company operations of the Company, ULA, Golden, and USG with Golden being the survivor. The sequence of events, effective January 1, 2004, is as follows: redomestication of Golden to Iowa, merger of the four affiliated insurers with Golden being the survivor, and the renaming of Golden to ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company ("ING USA"). The Delaware Insurance Department provided a "no objection letter" for the redomestication of Golden to Iowa on August 25, 2003. The Iowa Division of Insurance approved the merger on July 21, 2003 and the Oklahoma Department of Insurance on August 11, 2003. 40 Exhibit 99.2 Report of Independent Auditors Board of Directors and Stockholder ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company We have audited the accompanying statutory basis balance sheets of United Life & Annuity Insurance Company ("the Company" which, effective January 1, 2004, merged into an affiliate, ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc.) as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related statutory basis statements of operations, changes in capital and surplus, and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company presents its financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Department of the State of Iowa ("Iowa Insurance Department"), which practices differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The variances between such practices and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States are described in Note 1. The effects on the financial statements of these variances are not reasonably determinable but are presumed to be material. In our opinion, because of the effects of the matter described in the preceding paragraph, the financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, the financial position of United Life & Annuity Insurance Company at December 31, 2003 and 2002 or the results of its operations or its cash flows for the years then ended. 1 However, in our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of United Life & Annuity Insurance Company at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Iowa Insurance Department. /s/ Ernst and Young March 22, 2004 2 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Balance Sheets - Statutory Basis December 31 2003 2002 --------------- --------------- (In Thousands) Admitted assets Cash and invested assets: Bonds $ 580,896 $ 608,870 Common stocks 2 10 Subsidiary 25 25 Mortgage loans 36,853 34,829 Policy loans 880 933 Other invested assets 6,739 13,908 Cash and short-term investments 3,700 14,741 --------------- --------------- Total cash and invested assets 629,095 673,316 Deferred and uncollected premiums, less loading (2003 - $0; 2002 - $0) (30) (30) Accrued investment income 7,614 8,523 Reinsurance balances recoverable 45 112 Federal income tax recoverable (including $2,639 and $5,385 net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively) 3,246 6,791 Separate account assets 63,193 64,410 Other assets 784 375 --------------- --------------- Total admitted assets $ 703,947 $ 753,497 =============== ===============

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 7 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Policies United Life & Annuity Insurance Company (the "Company") is domiciled in Iowa and is a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings, Inc., which in turn is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc. ("ING AIH"). Effective January 1, 2004, the Company merged into an affiliate, ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings, Inc. The primary insurance products offered by the Company are annuity related. The Company also offers life and health insurance products, however all life and health business is ceded to other insurers. The Company is presently licensed in 47 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. The preparation of financial statements of insurance companies requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed herein. Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Department of the State of Iowa ("Iowa Insurance Department"), which practices differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The most significant variances from GAAP are as follows: Investments: Investments in bonds and mandatorily redeemable preferred stocks are reported at amortized cost or market value based on the National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC") rating; for GAAP, such fixed maturity investments are designated at purchase as held-to-maturity, trading or available-for-sale. Held-to-maturity investments are reported at amortized cost, and the remaining fixed maturity investments are reported at fair value with unrealized capital gains and losses reported in operations for those designated as trading and as a separate component of other comprehensive income in stockholder's equity for those designated as available-for-sale. For structured securities, when a negative yield results from a revaluation based on new prepayment assumptions (i.e., undiscounted cash flows are less than current book value), an other than temporary impairment is considered to have occurred and the asset is written down to the value of the undiscounted cash flows. For GAAP, assets are re-evaluated based on the discounted cash flows using a current market rate. Impairments are recognized when there has been an adverse change in cash flows and the fair value is less than book value. The asset is then written down to fair value. 8 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Common stocks are reported at market value as determined by the Securities Valuation Office of the NAIC ("SVO") and the related unrealized capital gains/losses are reported in unassigned surplus along with adjustment for federal income taxes. Valuation Reserves: The asset valuation reserve ("AVR") is determined by an NAIC-prescribed formula and is reported as a liability rather than as a valuation allowance or an appropriation of surplus. The change in AVR is reported directly to unassigned surplus. Under a formula prescribed by the NAIC, the Company defers the portion of realized gains and losses on sales of fixed-income investments, principally bonds and mortgage loans, attributable to changes in the general level of interest rates, and amortizes those deferrals over the remaining period to maturity based on groupings of individual securities sold in five-year bands. The net deferral or interest maintenance reserve ("IMR") is reported as a component of other liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets. Realized gains and losses on investments are reported in operations net of federal income tax and transfers to the IMR. Under GAAP, realized capital gains and losses are reported in the statements of operations on a pretax basis in the period that the asset giving rise to the gain or loss is sold and valuation allowances are provided when there has been a decline in value deemed other than temporary, in which case the provision for such declines is charged to income. Valuation allowances, if necessary, are established for mortgage loans based on the difference between the net value of the collateral, determined as the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to obtain and sell, and the recorded investment in the mortgage loan. Under GAAP, such allowances are based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, if foreclosure is probable, on the estimated fair value of the collateral. The initial valuation allowance and subsequent changes in the allowance for mortgage loans as a result of a temporary impairment are charged or credited directly to unassigned surplus, rather than being included as a component of earnings as would be required under GAAP. Policy Acquisition Costs: The costs of acquiring and renewing business are expensed when incurred. Under GAAP, acquisition costs related to traditional life insurance, to the extent recoverable from future policy revenues, are deferred and amortized over the premium-paying period of the related policies using assumptions consistent with those used in computing policy benefit reserves. For universal life insurance and investment products, to the extent recoverable from future gross profits, acquisition costs are amortized generally in proportion to the present value of expected gross margins from surrender charges and investment, mortality, and expense margins. 9 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Premiums: Life premiums are recognized as revenue when due. Premiums for annuity policies with mortality and morbidity risk, except for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts, are also recognized as revenue when due. Premiums received for annuity policies without mortality or morbidity risk and for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts are recorded using deposit accounting. Under GAAP, premiums for traditional life insurance products, which include those products with fixed and guaranteed premiums and benefits and consist primarily of whole life insurance policies, are recognized as revenue when due. Group insurance premiums are recognized as premium revenue over the time period to which the premiums relate. Revenues for universal life, annuities and guaranteed interest contracts consist of policy charges for the cost of insurance, policy administration charges, amortization of policy initiation fees and surrender charges assessed during the period. Benefit and Contract Reserves: Life policy and contract reserves under statutory accounting practices are calculated based upon both the net level premium and Commissioners' Reserve Valuation methods using statutory rates for mortality and interest. GAAP requires that policy reserves for traditional products be based upon the net level premium method utilizing reasonably conservative estimates of mortality, interest, and withdrawals prevailing when the policies were sold. For interest-sensitive products, the GAAP policy reserve is equal to the policy fund balance plus an unearned revenue reserve which reflects the unamortized balance of early year policy loads over renewal year policy loads. Reinsurance: For business ceded to unauthorized reinsurers, statutory accounting practices require that reinsurance credits permitted by the treaty be recorded as an offsetting liability and charged against unassigned surplus. Under GAAP, an allowance for amounts deemed uncollectible would be established through a charge to earnings. Statutory income recognized on certain reinsurance treaties representing financing arrangements is not recognized on a GAAP basis. Policy and contract liabilities ceded to reinsurers have been reported as reductions of the related reserves rather than as assets as required under GAAP. Commissions allowed by reinsurers on business ceded are reported as income when received rather than being deferred and amortized with deferred policy acquisition costs as required under GAAP. Subsidiary: The accounts and operations of the Company's subsidiary are not consolidated with the accounts and operations of the Company as would be required under GAAP. 10 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nonadmitted Assets: Certain assets designated as "nonadmitted," principally deferred federal income tax assets, disallowed interest maintenance reserves, non-operating software, past-due agents' balances, furniture and equipment, intangible assets, and other assets not specifically identified as an admitted asset within the Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual are excluded from the accompanying balance sheets and are charged directly to unassigned surplus. Under GAAP, such assets are included in the balance sheets. Universal Life and Annuity Policies: Revenues for universal life and annuity policies consist of the entire premium received and benefits incurred represent the total of death benefits paid and the change in policy reserves. Under GAAP, premiums received in excess of policy charges would not be recognized as premium revenue and benefits would represent the excess of benefits paid over the policy account value and interest credited to the account values. Deferred Income Taxes: Deferred tax assets are provided for and admitted to an amount determined under a standard formula. This formula considers the amount of differences that will reverse in the subsequent year, taxes paid in prior years that could be recovered through carrybacks, surplus limits, and the amount of deferred tax liabilities available for offset. Any deferred tax assets not covered under the formula are non-admitted. Deferred taxes do not include any amounts for state taxes. Under GAAP, a deferred tax asset is recorded for the amount of gross deferred tax assets that are expected to be realized in future years and a valuation allowance is established for the portion that is not realizable. Statements of Cash Flows: Cash and short-term investments in the statements of cash flows represent cash balances and investments with initial maturities of one year or less. Under GAAP, the corresponding caption of cash and cash equivalents include cash balances and investments with initial maturities of three months or less. Reconciliation to GAAP The effects of the preceding variances from GAAP on the accompanying statutory basis financial statements have not been determined, but are presumed to be material. Other significant accounting practices are as follows: Investments Investments are stated at values prescribed by the NAIC, as follows: Bonds not backed by other loans are principally stated at amortized cost using the interest method. 11 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Single class and multi-class mortgage-backed/asset-backed securities are valued at amortized cost using the interest method including anticipated prepayments. Prepayment assumptions are obtained from dealer surveys or internal estimates and are based on the current interest rate and economic environment. The retrospective adjustment method is used to value all such securities except for higher-risk asset backed securities, which are valued using the prospective method. Common stocks are reported at market value as determined by the SVO and the related unrealized capital gains/losses are reported in unassigned surplus with adjustment for federal income taxes. 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 time and the extent to which the market value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, future economic conditions and market forecasts, and the Company's intent and ability to retain the investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for recovery in market 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. The Company's noninsurance subsidiary is carried at cost. Mortgage loans are reported at amortized cost, less allowance for impairments. Contract loans are reported at unpaid principal balances. Short-term investments are reported at amortized cost. Short-term investments include investments with maturities of less than one year at the date of acquisition. Partnership interests, which are included in other invested assets, are reported at the underlying GAAP equity of the investee. Realized capital gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method. Cash on hand includes cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are short-term investments that are both readily convertible to cash and have an original maturity date of three months or less. Short-term investments are carried at amortized cost, which approximates market value. 12 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aggregate Reserve for Life Policies and Contracts Life, annuity, and accident and health reserves are developed by actuarial methods and are determined based on published tables using statutorily specified interest rates and valuation methods that will provide, in the aggregate, reserves that are greater than or equal to the minimum or guaranteed policy cash value or the amounts required by law. Interest rates range from 3% to 10%. The Company waives the deduction of deferred fractional premiums upon the death of the insured. It is the Company's practice to return a pro rata portion of any premium paid beyond the policy month of death, although it is not contractually required to do so for certain issues. The methods used in valuation of substandard policies are as follows: For life, endowment and term policies issued substandard, the standard reserve during the premium-paying period is increased by 50% of the gross annual extra premium. Standard reserves are held on Paid-Up Limited Pay contracts. For reinsurance accepted with table rating, the reserve established is a multiple of the standard reserve corresponding to the table rating. For reinsurance with flat extra premiums, the standard reserve is increased by 50% of the flat extra. The tabular interest has been determined from the basic data for the calculation of policy reserves for all direct ordinary life insurance and for the portion of group life insurance classified as group Section 79. The tabular interest of funds not involving life contingencies is calculated as the current year reserves, plus payments, less prior year reserves, less funds added. Reinsurance Reinsurance premiums, commissions, expense reimbursements, and reserves related to reinsured business are accounted for on bases consistent with those used in accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of the reinsurance contracts. Reserves are based on the terms of the reinsurance contract and are consistent with the risks assumed. Premiums and benefits ceded to other companies have been reported as a reduction of premium revenue and benefits expense. Amounts applicable to reinsurance ceded for reserves and unpaid claim liabilities have been reported as reductions of these items, and expense allowances received in connection with reinsurance ceded have been reflected in operations. 13 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nonadmitted Assets Nonadmitted assets are summarized as follows: December 31 2003 2002 ---------------- --------------- (In Thousands) Deferred federal income taxes $ 10,369 $ 12,175 Agents' debit balances (7) 22 Other - 181 ---------------- --------------- Total nonadmitted assets $ 10,362 $ 12,378 ================ ===============
Changes in nonadmitted assets are generally reported directly in unassigned surplus as an increase or decrease in nonadmitted assets. Certain changes are reported directly in unassigned surplus as a change in unrealized capital gains or losses. Claims and Claims Adjustment Expenses Claims expenses represent the estimated ultimate net cost of all reported and unreported claims incurred through December 31, 2003. The Company does not discount claims and claims adjustment expense reserves. Such estimates are based on actuarial projections applied to historical claims payment data. Such liabilities are considered to be reasonable and adequate to discharge the Company's obligations for claims incurred but unpaid as of December 31, 2003. Cash Flow Information Cash and short-term investments include cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term fixed maturity instruments with a maturity of less than one year at date of acquisition. The Company borrowed $123,000,000 and repaid $123,000,000 in 2003 and borrowed $91,220,000 and repaid $91,220,000 in 2002. These borrowings were on a short-term basis, at an interest rate that approximated current money market rates and exclude borrowings from reverse dollar repurchase transactions. Interest paid on borrowed money was $17,000 and $13,000 during 2003 and 2002, respectively. Separate Accounts Separate account assets and liabilities held by the Company represent funds held for the benefit of the Company's variable annuity policy and contract holders who bear all of the investment risk associated with the policies. Such policies are of a non-guaranteed nature. All net investment experience, positive or negative, is attributed to the policy and contract holders' account values. The assets and liabilities of these accounts are carried at fair value. 14 Reserves related to the Company's mortality risk associated with these policies are included in annuity reserves. The operations of the separate accounts are not included in the accompanying statements of operations. Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts in the Company's statutory basis financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2003 financial statement presentation. 2. Permitted Statutory Basis Accounting Practices The financial statements of the Company are presented on the basis of accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Iowa Insurance Department. The Iowa Insurance Department recognizes only statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the State of Iowa for determining and reporting the financial condition and results of operations of an insurance company for determining its solvency under the Iowa Insurance Laws. The NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual has been adopted as a component of prescribed or permitted practices by the State of Iowa. The Commissioner of Insurance has the right to permit other specific practices that deviate from prescribed practices. The Company is required to identify those significant accounting practices that are permitted, and obtain written approval of the practices from the Iowa Department of Insurance. As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had no such permitted accounting practices. 15 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.

16 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As of December 31, 2003, the aggregate fair value of debt securities with unrealized losses and the time period that cost exceeded fair value are as follows: More than 6 Less than 6 months and less More than 12 months below than 12 months months below cost below cost cost Total ----------------- ------------------ ----------------- ------------------ (In Thousands) Fair value $ 77,073 $ 86,922 $ 13,324 $ 177,389 Unrealized loss 497 2,725 1,872 5,094
Of the unrealized losses more than 6 months and less than 12 months in duration of $2,725,000, there were $958,000 in unrealized losses that are primarily related to interest rate movement or spread widening for other than credit-related reasons. Business and operating fundamentals are performing as expected. The remaining unrealized losses of $1,767,000 as of December 31, 2003 included the following significant items: $1,258,000 of unrealized losses related to mortgage-backed and structured securities reviewed for impairment under the guidance prescribed by SSAP 43 Loan-backed and Structured Securities. This category includes U.S. government-backed securities, principal protected securities and structured securities which did not have an adverse change in cash flows for which the fair value was $35,618,000. $384,000 of unrealized losses related to the energy/utility industry, for which the fair value was $12,734,000. During 2003, the energy sector recovered due to a gradually improving economic picture and the lack of any material accounting irregularities similar to those experienced in the prior two years. Current analysis indicates that the debt will be serviced in accordance with the contractual terms. The remaining unrealized losses totaling $125,000 relate to a fair value of $4,754,000. Of the unrealized losses more than 12 months in duration of $1,872,000, there were $1,413,000 in unrealized losses that are primarily related to mortgage-backed and structured securities reviewed for impairment under the guidance prescribed by SSAP 43 Loan-backed and Structured Securities. This category includes U.S. government-backed securities, principal protected securities and structured securities which did not have an adverse change in cash flows for which the fair value was $8,574,000. The remaining unrealized losses of $459,000 as of December 31, 2003 included the following: $446,000 of unrealized losses related to the airline industry, for which the fair value was $3,265,000. During 2003, the airline industry continued to suffer from decreased passenger volumes offset by a gradually improving economy. The majority of the airline investments are comprised of Enhanced Equipment Trust Certificates ("EETC"). Current analysis indicates the specific collateral backing EETC investments is predominantly represented by newer models that are expected to be retained as individual airlines reduce their fleets. 17 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The amortized cost and fair value of investments in bonds at December 31, 2003, by contractual maturity, are shown below.

The lending rate for long-term mortgage loans during 2003 was 4.21%. Fire insurance is required on all properties covered by mortgage loans and must at least equal the excess of the loan over the maximum loan which would be permitted by law on the land without the buildings. The maximum percentage of any loan to the value of collateral at the time of the loan, exclusive of insured or guaranteed or purchase money mortgages, was 62.1% on commercial properties. As of December 31, 2003, the Company held no mortgages with interest more than 180 days overdue. 4. Concentrations of Credit Risk The Company held less-than-investment-grade bonds with an aggregate book value of $49,623,000 and $40,723,000 and with an aggregate market value of $51,584,000 and $40,582,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Those holdings amounted to 8.5% of the Company's investments in bonds and 7.7% of total admitted assets at December 31, 2003. The holdings of less-than-investment-grade bonds are widely diversified and of satisfactory quality based on the Company's investment policies and credit standards. The Company held unrated bonds of $2,480,000 and $17,624,000 with an aggregate NAIC market value of $1,951,000 and $17,726,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

At December 31, 2003, the Company's commercial mortgages involved a concentration of properties located in California (46.0%) and Pennsylvania (13.5%). The remaining commercial mortgages relate to properties located in 18 other states. The portfolio is well diversified covering many different types of income-producing properties on which the Company has first mortgage liens. The maximum mortgage outstanding on any individual property is $6,290,000. 19 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5.

20 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6. Separate Accounts Separate account assets and liabilities held by the Company represent funds held for the benefit of the Company's variable annuity policy and contract holders who bear all the investment risk associated with the policies. Such policies are of a non-guaranteed nature. All net investment experience, positive or negative, is attributed to the policy and contract holders' account values. The assets of these accounts are carried at fair value. Premiums, deposits, and other considerations received for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 were $201,000 and $408,000, respectively. The general nature and characteristics of the Company's nonguaranteed separate accounts business follows: December 31 2003 2002 ---------------- ---------------- (In Thousands) December 31, 2003 Premium, consideration or deposits $ 201 $ 408 ================ ================ Reserves for accounts with assets at: Market value $ 60,233 $ 61,500 Amortized cost - - ---------------- ---------------- Total reserves $ 60,233 $ 61,500 ================ ================ Reserves for separate accounts by withdrawal characteristics: Subject to descretionary withdrawal: With market value adjustment $ - $ - At book value without market value adjustments and with current surrender charge of 5% or more - - At market value 60,233 61,500 At book value without market value adjustments and with current surrender charge of less than 5% - - ---------------- ---------------- Subtotal 60,233 61,500 Not subject to discretionary withdrawal - - ---------------- ---------------- Total separate account aggregate reserves $ 60,233 $ 61,500 ================ ================

7. Reinsurance The Company is involved in ceded reinsurance with other companies for the purpose of diversifying risk and limiting exposure on larger risks. To the extent that the assuming companies become unable to meet their obligations under these treaties, the Company remains contingently liable to its policyholders for the portion reinsured. To minimize its exposure to significant losses from retrocessionaire insolvencies, the Company evaluates the financial condition of the retrocessionaire and monitors concentrations of credit risk. The Company's ceded reinsurance arrangements reduced certain items in the accompanying financial statements by the following amounts: December 31 2003 2002 -------------- --------------- (In Thousands) Premiums $ 2,550 $ 2,832 Benefits paid or provided 11,049 6,101 Policy and contract liabilities at year end 83,857 91,095

The change in net deferred income taxes is comprised of the following: December 31 2003 2002 Change -------------- -------------- -------------- (In Thousands) Total deferred tax assets $ 13,725 $ 18,420 $ (4,695) Total deferred tax liabilities 717 859 (142) -------------- -------------- -------------- Net deferred tax asset $ 13,008 $ 17,561 (4,553) ============== ============== Remove current year change in unrealized gains 47 -------------- Change in net deferred income tax (4,506) Remove other items in surplus: Current year change in non-admitted assets 74 -------------- Change in deferred taxes for rate reconciliation $ (4,432) ==============
24 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The provision for federal income taxes incurred and change in deferred taxes is different from that which would be obtained by applying the statutory Federal income tax rate to income (including capital items) before income taxes. The significant items causing this difference are: Year Ended December 31, 2003 --------------------- (In Thousands) Ordinary income $ 5,115 Capital gains 8,188 --------------------- Total pre-tax book income $ 13,303 ===================== Provision computed at statutory rate $ 4,656 Refinement of deferred tax balances (455) Interest maintenance reserve (376) Nondeductible general expenses 2 Amortization of reinsurance gain (764) Other (44) --------------------- Total $ 3,019 ===================== Federal income taxes incurred $ (1,413) Change in net deferred income taxes 4,432 --------------------- Total statutory income taxes $ 3,019 =====================
The amount of federal income taxes incurred that will be available for recoupment in the event of future net losses is $0 and $738,000 from 2003 and 2002 respectively. The Company has a recoverable of $607,000 at December 31, 2003 and $1,406,000 at December 31, 2002 from the United States Treasury for federal income taxes. The Company has gross capital loss carry forwards, which expire as follows: Expiration Year Amount ---------------------- -------------------- (In Thousands) 2005 $ 2,014
9. Investment in and Advances to Subsidiaries The Company has one wholly owned noninsurance subsidiary at December 31, 2003, United Variable Services, Inc. 25 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Amounts invested in and advanced to the Company's subsidiary is summarized as follows: December 31 2003 2002 --------------- --------------- (In Thousands) Common stock (cost $25,000 in 2003 and in 2002) $ 25 $ 25
10. Capital and Surplus Under Iowa insurance regulations, the Company is required to maintain a minimum total capital and surplus of $7,806,000. Additionally, the amount of dividends that can be paid by the Company to its stockholder without prior approval of the Iowa Insurance Department is limited to the greater of 10% of statutory surplus or the statutory net gain from operations of the preceding year. Life and health insurance companies are subject to certain Risk-Based Capital ("RBC") requirements as specified by the NAIC. Under those requirements, the amount of capital and surplus maintained by a life and health insurance company is to be determined based on the various risk factors related to it. At December 31, 2003, the Company meets the RBC requirements. 26 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11. Fair Values of Financial Instruments Life insurance liabilities that contain mortality risk and all nonfinancial instruments have been excluded from the disclosure requirements. However, the fair values of liabilities under all insurance contracts are taken into consideration in the Company's overall management of interest rate risk, such that the Company's exposure to changing interest rates is minimized through the matching of investment maturities with amounts due under insurance contracts. The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments are summarized as follows: December 31 2003 2002 ----------------------------- ------------------------------ Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Amount Value Amount Value ------------- ------------ ------------- ------------- (In Thousands) Assets: Bonds $ 580,896 $ 594,420 $ 608,870 $ 624,349 Unaffiliated common stocks 2 2 10 10 Mortgage loans 36,853 40,955 34,829 39,729 Policy loans 880 880 933 933 Short-term investments 3,450 3,450 14,450 14,450 Cash 250 250 291 291 Separate account assets 63,193 63,193 64,410 64,410 Receivable for securities 1,081 1,081 8,308 8,308 Liabilities: Individual and group annuities 530,146 529,848 578,170 575,913 Deposit type contract 13,869 13,882 14,926 14,939 Indebtedness to related parties 1,293 1,293 1,634 1,634 Separate account liabilities 63,193 63,193 64,410 64,410
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value disclosures for financial instruments in the accompanying financial statements and notes thereto: Cash and short-term investments: The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying balance sheets for these financial instruments approximate their fair values. 27 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fixed maturities and equity securities: The fair values for bonds and common stocks reported herein are based on quoted market prices, where available. For securities not actively traded, fair values are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services or, in the case of private placements, are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows. The discount rates used vary as a function of factors such as yield, credit quality, and maturity, which fall within a range between 3% and 8% over the total portfolio. Fair values determined on this basis can differ from values published by the SVO. Fair value as determined by the SVO as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 is $584,169,000 and $611,948,000, respectively. Mortgage loans: Estimated market values for commercial real estate loans were generated using a discounted cash flow approach. Loans in good standing are discounted using interest rates determined by U.S. Treasury yields on December 31 and spreads applied on new loans with similar characteristics. The amortizing features of all loans are incorporated in the valuation. Where data on option features is available, option values are determined using a binomial valuation method, and are incorporated into the mortgage valuation. Restructured loans are valued in the same manner; however, these loans were discounted at a greater spread to reflect increased risk. All residential loans are valued at their outstanding principal balances, which approximate their fair values. Other investment-type insurance contracts: The fair values of the Company's deferred annuity contracts are estimated based on the cash surrender values. The carrying values of other policyholder liabilities, including immediate annuities, dividend accumulations, supplementary contracts without life contingencies, and premium deposits, approximate their fair values. The carrying value of all other financial instruments approximates their fair value. 12. Commitments and Contingencies The Company is a party to threatened or pending lawsuits arising from the normal conduct of business. Due to the climate in insurance and business litigation, 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 pending lawsuits, in light of existing insurance, reinsurance and established reserves, it is the opinion of management that the disposition of such lawsuits will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's operations or financial position. 28 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matters Like many financial services companies, certain U.S. affiliates of ING Groep N.V. ("ING"), the Company's ultimate parent, have received informal and formal requests for information since September 2003 from various governmental and self-regulatory agencies in connection with investigations related to mutual funds and variable insurance products. ING has cooperated fully with each request. In addition to responding to regulatory requests, ING management initiated an internal review of trading in ING insurance, retirement, and mutual fund products. The goal of this review has been to identify whether there have been any instances of inappropriate trading in those products by third parties or by ING investment professionals and other ING personnel. This internal review is being conducted by independent special counsel and auditors. Additionally, ING reviewed its controls and procedures in a continuing effort to deter improper frequent trading in ING products. ING's internal reviews related to mutual fund trading are continuing. The internal review has identified several arrangements allowing third parties to engage in frequent trading of mutual funds within the Company's variable insurance and mutual fund products, and identified other circumstances where frequent trading occurred despite measures taken by ING intended to combat market timing. Most of the identified arrangements were initiated prior to ING's acquisition of the businesses in question. In each arrangement identified, ING has terminated the inappropriate trading, taken steps to discipline or terminate employees who were involved, and modified policies and procedures to deter inappropriate activity. While the review is not completed, management believes the activity identified does not represent a systemic problem in the businesses involved. These instances included agreements (initiated in 1998) that permitted one variable life insurance customer of Reliastar Life Insurance Company ("Reliastar"), an affiliate of the Company, to engage in frequent trading, and to submit orders until 4pm Central Time, instead of 4pm Eastern Time. Reliastar was acquired by ING in 2000. The late trading arrangement was immediately terminated when current senior management became aware of it in 2002. ING believes that no profits were realized by the customer from the late trading aspect of the arrangement. In addition, the review has identified five arrangements that allowed frequent trading of funds within variable insurance products issued by Reliastar and by ING USA Annuity & Life Insurance Company and in certain ING Funds. ING entities did not receive special benefits in return for any of these arrangements, which have all been terminated. The internal review also identified two investment professionals who engaged in improper frequent trading in ING Funds. ING will reimburse any ING Fund or its shareholders affected by inappropriate trading for any profits that accrued to any person who engaged in improper frequent trading for which ING is responsible. Management believes that the total amount of such reimbursements will not be material to ING or its U.S. business. 29 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13. Financing Agreements The Company maintains a revolving loan agreement with SunTrust Bank, Atlanta (the "Bank"). Under this agreement, which expires July 31, 2004, the Company can borrow up to $25,000,000 from the Bank. Interest on any Company borrowing accrues at an annual rate equal to: (1) the cost of funds for the Bank for the period applicable for the advance plus 0.225% or (2) a rate quoted by the Bank to the Company for the borrowing. Under this agreement, the Company incurred interest expense of $182 for the year ended December 31, 2003. At December 31, 2003, the Company had no amounts payable to the Bank. The Company also maintains a revolving loan agreement with Bank of New York, New York ("BONY"). Under this agreement, the Company can borrow up to $50,000,000 from BONY. Interest on any Company borrowing accrues at an annual rate equal to: (1) the cost of funds for BONY for the period applicable for the advance plus 0.35% or (2) a rate quoted by BONY to the Company for the borrowing. Under this agreement, the Company incurred no interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2003. At December 31, 2003, the Company had no amounts payable to BONY. 14. Related Party Transactions Affiliates Management and service contracts and all cost sharing arrangements with other affiliated ING U.S. life insurance companies are allocated among companies in accordance with normal, generally accepted expense and cost allocation methods. Investment Management: The Company has entered into an investment advisory agreement and an administrative services agreement with ING Investment Management, LLC ("IIM") under which IIM provides the Company with investment management and asset liability management services. Total fees under this agreement were approximately $1,871,000 and $1,617,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Inter-insurer Services Agreement: The Company has entered into a services agreement with certain of its affiliated insurance companies in the United States ("affiliated insurers") whereby the affiliated insurers provide certain administrative, management, professional, advisory, consulting and other services to each other. Net amounts paid under these agreements were $2,304,000 and $384,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. 30 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reciprocal Loan Agreement: The Company maintains a reciprocal loan agreement with ING AIH to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Under this agreement, which expires April 1, 2011, the Company and ING AIH can borrow up to $22,400,000 from one another. Interest on any borrowing is charged at the rate of ING AIH's cost of funds for the interest period plus 0.15%. Interest on any ING AIH borrowings is charged at the rate based on the prevailing interest rate of U.S. commercial paper available for purchase with a similar duration. Under this agreement, the Company incurred interest expense of $17,000 and interest income of $36,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. At December 31, 2003, the Company had no amounts payable to or receivable from ING AIH. Assets and liabilities, along with related revenues and expenses, recorded as a result of transactions and agreements with affiliates may not be the same as those recorded if the Company was not a wholly-owned subsidiary of its parent. 15. Guaranty Fund Assessments Insurance companies are assessed the costs of funding the insolvencies of other insurance companies by the various state guaranty associations, generally based on the amount of premiums companies collect in that state. The Company accrues the cost of future guaranty fund assessments based on estimates of insurance company insolvencies provided by the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Associations ("NOLHGA") and the amount of premiums written in each state. The Company has recorded $490,000 and $474,000 for this liability as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Company has also recorded an asset of $26,000 and $351,000 as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, for future credits to premium taxes for assessments already paid. 16. Subsequent Events Golden American Life Insurance Company ("Golden") requested that the Delaware Insurance Department approve the redomestication of Golden from Delaware to Iowa effective January 1, 2004. Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa ("Equitable"), the Company, and USG Annuity and Life Company ("USG") requested the Iowa Department of Insurance (for Equitable and the Company) and the Oklahoma Department of Insurance (for USG) to approve the merger of the affiliated life insurance company operations of Equitable, the Company, Golden, and USG with Golden being the survivor. The sequence of events, effective January 1, 2004, is as follows: redomestication of Golden to Iowa, merger of the four affiliated insurers with Golden being the survivor, and the renaming of Golden to ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company ("ING USA"). 31 United Life & Annuity Insurance Company Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Delaware Insurance Department provided a "no objection letter" for the redomestication of Golden to Iowa on August 25, 2003. The Iowa Department of Insurance approved the merger on July 21, 2003 and the Oklahoma Department of Insurance approved it on August 11, 2003. 17. Reconciliation to the Annual Statement During 2002, the Company recorded prior year adjustments in its summary of operations in the 2002 Annual Statement.

32 Exhibit 99.3 Report of Independent Auditors Board of Directors and Stockholder ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company We have audited the accompanying statutory basis balance sheets of USG Annuity & Life Company ("the Company" which, effective January 1, 2004, merged into an affiliate, ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc.) as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related statutory basis statements of operations, changes in capital and surplus, and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company presents its financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Commissioner of Insurance of the State of Oklahoma ("Oklahoma Insurance Department"), which practices differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The variances between such practices and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States are described in Note 1. The effects on the financial statements of these variances are not reasonably determinable but are presumed to be material. In our opinion, because of the effects of the matter described in the preceding paragraph, the financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, the financial position of USG Annuity & Life Company at December 31, 2003 and 2002 or the results of its operations or its cash flows for the years then ended. 1 However, in our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of USG Annuity & Life Company at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Oklahoma Insurance Department. /s/ Ernst & Young March 22, 2004 USG Annuity & Life Company Balance Sheets - Statutory Basis December 31 2003 2002 --------------- --------------- (In Thousands) Admitted assets Cash and invested assets: Bonds $ 6,231,961 $ 6,116,495 Preferred stocks 1,273 1,088 Mortgage loans 1,471,607 1,483,855 Real estate, less accumulated depreciation (2003-$29, 2002-$304) 2,679 1,477 Contract loans 32,247 32,454 Other invested assets 41,017 47,704 Cash and short-term investments 27,739 9,116 --------------- --------------- Total cash and invested assets 7,808,523 7,692,189 Deferred and uncollected premiums, less loading (2003-$12, 2002-$58) 284 386 Accrued investment income 68,590 77,674 Reinsurance balances recoverable 252 335 Indebtedness from related parties 19,597 25 Federal income tax recoverable (including $18,475 and $15,601 net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively) 20,761 22,163 Other assets 33 2,451 --------------- --------------- Total admitted assets $ 7,918,040 $ 7,795,223 =============== ===============

Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Policies USG Annuity & Life Company (the "Company") is domiciled in Oklahoma and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa ("Equitable"), an Iowa domiciled insurance company. Equitable is a wholly owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings, Inc., which in turn is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc. ("ING AIH"). Effective January 1, 2004, the Company merged into an affiliate, ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion Connecticut Holdings, Inc. The Company offers various insurance products, including deferred fixed annuities, immediate annuities, and interest-sensitive life insurance. These products are primarily marketed to individuals by independent insurance broker/dealers, financial institutions, and a career agency force. The Company is licensed in 48 states and the District of Columbia. The preparation of financial statements of insurance companies requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed herein. Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Commissioner of Insurance of the State of Oklahoma ("Oklahoma Insurance Department"), which practices differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The most significant variances from GAAP are as follows: Investments: Investments in bonds and mandatorily redeemable preferred stocks are reported at amortized cost or market value based on the National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC") rating; for GAAP, such fixed maturity investments are designated at purchase as held-to-maturity, trading or available-for-sale. Held-to-maturity investments are reported at amortized cost, and the remaining fixed maturity investments are reported at fair value with unrealized capital gains and losses reported in operations for those designated as trading and as a component of other comprehensive income in stockholder's equity for those designated as available-for-sale. Investments in real estate are reported net of related obligations rather than on a gross basis. Changes between depreciated cost and admitted asset investment amounts are credited or charged directly to unassigned surplus rather than income as would be required under GAAP. 7 8 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SSAP 31 applies to derivative transactions prior to January 1, 2003. The Company also follows the newly adopted hedge accounting guidance in SSAP 86 for derivative transactions entered into or modified on or after January 1, 2003. Under this guidance, derivatives that are deemed effective hedges are accounted for in a manner which is consistent with the underlying hedged item. Derivatives used in hedging transactions that do not meet the requirements of SSAP 86 as an effective hedge are carried at fair value with the change in value recorded in surplus as unrealized gains or losses. Embedded derivatives are not accounted for separately from the host contract. Under GAAP, the effective and ineffective portions of a single hedge are accounted for separately, an embedded derivative within a contract that is not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risk of the host contract is accounted for separately from the host contract and valued and reported at fair value, and the change in fair value for cash flow hedges is credited or charged directly to a separate component of shareholder's equity rather than to income as required for fair value hedges. The Company invests in structured securities, including mortgage-backed securities/collateralized mortgage obligations, asset-backed securities, collateralized debt obligations, and commercial mortgage-backed securities. For these structured securities, management compares the undiscounted cash flows to the carrying value. An other than temporary impairment is considered to have occurred when the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value. 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 accounted for as a realized loss. Valuation Reserves: The asset valuation reserve ("AVR") is determined by an NAIC-prescribed formula and is reported as a liability rather than as a valuation allowance or an appropriation of surplus. The change in AVR is reported directly to unassigned surplus. Under a formula prescribed by the NAIC, the Company defers the portion of realized gains and losses on sales of fixed-income investments, principally bonds and mortgage loans, attributable to changes in the general level of interest rates, and amortizes those deferrals over the remaining period to maturity based on groupings of individual securities sold in five-year bands. The net deferral is reported as the interest maintenance reserve ("IMR") in the accompanying balance sheets. Realized gains and losses on investments are reported in operations net of federal income tax and transfers to the IMR. Under GAAP, realized capital gains and losses are reported in the statements of operations on a pretax basis in the period that the asset giving rise to the gain or loss is sold and valuation allowances are provided when there has been a decline in value deemed other than temporary, in which case the provision for such declines is charged to income. 9 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Valuation allowances, if necessary, are established for mortgage loans based on the difference between the net value of the collateral, determined as the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to obtain and sell, and the recorded investment in the mortgage loan. Under GAAP, such allowances are based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan,s effective interest rate or, if foreclosure is probable, on the estimated fair value of the collateral. The initial valuation allowance and subsequent changes in the allowance for mortgage loans as a result of a temporary impairment are charged or credited directly to unassigned surplus, rather than being included as a component of earnings as would be required under GAAP. Policy Acquisition Costs: The costs of acquiring and renewing business are expensed when incurred. Under GAAP, acquisition costs related to traditional life insurance, to the extent recoverable from future policy revenues, are deferred and amortized over the premium-paying period of the related policies using assumptions consistent with those used in computing policy benefit reserves. For universal life insurance and investment products, to the extent recoverable from future gross profits, acquisition costs are amortized generally in proportion to the present value of expected gross margins from surrender charges and investment, mortality, and expense margins. Premiums: Life premiums are recognized as revenue when due. Premiums for annuity policies with mortality and morbidity risk, except for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts, are also recognized as revenue when due. Premiums received for annuity policies without mortality or morbidity risk and for guaranteed interest and group annuity contracts are recorded using deposit accounting. Under GAAP, premiums for traditional life insurance products, which include those products with fixed and guaranteed premiums and benefits and consist primarily of whole life insurance policies, are recognized as revenue when due. Group insurance premiums are recognized as premium revenue over the time period to which the premiums relate. Revenues for universal life, annuities and guaranteed interest contracts consist of policy charges for the cost of insurance, policy administration charges, amortization of policy initiation fees and surrender charges assessed during the period. Benefit and Contract Reserves: Life policy and contract reserves under statutory accounting practices are calculated based upon both the net level premium and Commissioners' Reserve Valuation methods using statutory rates for mortality and interest. GAAP requires that policy reserves for traditional products be based upon the net level premium method utilizing reasonably conservative estimates of mortality, interest, and withdrawals prevailing when the policies were sold. For interest-sensitive products, the GAAP policy reserve is equal to the policy fund balance plus an unearned revenue reserve which reflects the unamortized balance of early year policy loads over renewal year policy loads. 10 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reinsurance: For business ceded to unauthorized reinsurers, statutory accounting practices require that reinsurance credits permitted by the treaty be recorded as an offsetting liability and charged against unassigned surplus. Under GAAP, an allowance for amounts deemed uncollectible would be established through a charge to earnings. Statutory income recognized on certain reinsurance treaties representing financing arrangements is not recognized on a GAAP basis. Policy and contract liabilities ceded to reinsurers have been reported as reductions of the related reserves rather than as assets as required under GAAP. Commissions allowed by reinsurers on business ceded are reported as income when received rather than being deferred and amortized with deferred policy acquisition costs as required under GAAP. Nonadmitted Assets: Certain assets designated as "nonadmitted," principally deferred federal income tax assets, disallowed interest maintenance reserves, non-operating software, past-due agents' balances, furniture and equipment, intangible assets, and other assets not specifically identified as an admitted asset within the NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual are excluded from the accompanying balance sheets and are charged directly to unassigned surplus. Under GAAP, such assets are included in the balance sheets. Universal Life and Annuity Policies: Revenues for universal life and annuity policies consist of the entire premium received and benefits incurred represent the total of death benefits paid and the change in policy reserves. Under GAAP, premiums received in excess of policy charges would not be recognized as premium revenue and benefits would represent the excess of benefits paid over the policy account value and interest credited to the account values. Deferred Income Taxes: Deferred tax assets are provided for and admitted to an amount determined under a standard formula. This formula considers the amount of differences that will reverse in the subsequent year, taxes paid in prior years that could be recovered through carrybacks, surplus limits, and the amount of deferred tax liabilities available for offset. Any deferred tax assets not covered under the formula are non-admitted. Deferred taxes do not include any amounts for state taxes. Under GAAP, a deferred tax asset is recorded for the amount of gross deferred tax assets that are expected to be realized in future years and a valuation allowance is established for the portion that is not realizable. Statements of Cash Flows: Cash and short-term investments in the statements of cash flows represent cash balances and investments with initial maturities of one year or less. Under GAAP, the corresponding caption of cash and cash equivalents includes cash balances and investments with initial maturities of three months or less. 11 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reconciliation to GAAP The effects of the preceding variances from GAAP on the accompanying statutory basis financial statements have not been determined, but are presumed to be material. Other significant accounting practices are as follows: Investments Investments are stated at values prescribed by the NAIC, as follows: Bonds not backed by other loans are principally stated at amortized cost using the interest method. Single class and multi-class mortgage-backed/asset-backed securities are valued at amortized cost using the interest method including anticipated prepayments. Prepayment assumptions are obtained from dealer surveys or internal estimates and are based on the current interest rate and economic environment. The retrospective adjustment method is used to value all such securities except for higher-risk asset backed securities, which are valued using the prospective method. The Company has elected to use the book value as of January 1, 1994, as the cost for applying the retrospective method to securities purchased prior to that date where historical cash flows are not readily available. Redeemable preferred stocks rated as high quality or better are reported at cost or amortized cost. All other redeemable preferred stocks are reported at the lower of cost, amortized cost, or market value and nonredeemable preferred stocks are reported at market value or the lower of cost or market value as determined by the Securities Valuation Office of the NAIC ("SVO"). 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 time and the extent to which the market value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, future economic conditions and market forecasts, and the Company's intent and ability to retain the investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for recovery in market 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. 12 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company uses derivatives such as interest rate swaps, caps and floors, and options as part of its overall interest rate risk management strategy for certain life insurance and annuity products. As the Company only uses derivatives for hedging purposes, the Company values all derivative instruments on a consistent basis with the hedged item. Upon termination, gains and losses on those instruments are included in the carrying values of the underlying hedged items and are amortized over the remaining lives of the hedged items as adjustments to investment income or benefits from the hedged items. Any unamortized gains or losses are recognized when the underlying hedged items are sold. Interest rate swap contracts are used to convert the interest rate characteristics (fixed or variable) of certain investments to match those of the related insurance liabilities that the investments are supporting. The net interest effect of such swap transactions is reported as an adjustment of interest income from the hedged items as incurred. Interest rate caps and floors are used to limit the effects of changing interest rates on yields of variable rate or short-term assets or liabilities. The initial cost of any such agreement is amortized to net investment income over the life of the agreement. Periodic payments that are receivable as a result of the agreements are accrued as an adjustment of interest income or benefits from the hedged items. The derivatives are reported in a manner that is consistent with the hedged asset or liability. All derivatives are reported at amortized cost. Upon termination of a derivative that qualified for hedge accounting, the gain or loss is deferred in IMR or adjusts the basis of the hedged item. Mortgage loans are reported at amortized cost, less allowance for impairments. Contract loans are reported at unpaid principal balances. Land is reported at cost. Real estate is reported at the lower of depreciated cost or fair value. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the properties. For reverse repurchase agreements, Company policies require a minimum of 95% of the fair value of securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements to be maintained as collateral. Cash collateral received is invested in short-term investments and the offsetting collateral liability is included in miscellaneous liabilities. 13 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reverse dollar repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateral borrowings, where the amount borrowed is equal to the sales price of the underlying securities. The Company engages in securities lending whereby certain domestic bonds from its portfolio are loaned to other institutions for short periods of time. Collateral, primarily cash, which is in excess of the market value of the loaned securities, is deposited by the borrower with a lending agent, and retained and invested by the lending agent to generate additional income for the Company. The Company does not have access to the collateral. The Company's policy requires a minimum of 102% of the fair value of securities loaned to be maintained as collateral. The market value of the loaned securities is monitored on a daily basis with additional collateral obtained or refunded as the market value fluctuates. Short-term investments are reported at amortized cost. Short-term investments include investments with maturities of less than one year at the date of acquisition. Partnership interests, which are included in other invested assets, are reported at the underlying audited GAAP equity of the investee. Residual collateralized mortgage obligations, which are included in other invested assets, are reported at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Realized capital gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method. Cash on hand includes cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are short-term investments that are both readily convertible to cash and have an original maturity date of three months or less. Short-term investments are carried at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Aggregate Reserve for Life Policies and Contracts Life, annuity, and accident and health reserves are developed by actuarial methods and are determined based on published tables using statutorily specified interest rates and valuation methods that will provide, in the aggregate, reserves that are greater than or equal to the minimum or guaranteed policy cash value or the amounts required by law. Interest rates range from 3.00% to 8.75%. The Company waives the deduction of deferred fractional premiums upon the death of the insured. It is the Company's practice to return a pro rata portion of any premium paid beyond the policy month of death, although it is not contractually required to do so for certain issues. 14 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The methods used in valuation of substandard policies are as follows: For life, endowment and term policies issued substandard, the standard reserve during the premium-paying period is increased by 50% of the gross annual extra premium. Standard reserves are held on Paid-Up Limited Pay contracts. For reinsurance accepted with table rating, the reserve established is a multiple of the standard reserve corresponding to the table rating. For reinsurance with flat extra premiums, the standard reserve is increased by 50% of the flat extra. The tabular interest has been determined from the basic data for the calculation of policy reserves for all direct ordinary life insurance and for the portion of group life insurance classified as group Section 79. The tabular interest of funds not involving life contingencies is calculated as the current year reserves, plus payments, less prior year reserves, less funds added. Reinsurance Reinsurance premiums, commissions, expense reimbursements, and reserves related to reinsured business are accounted for on bases consistent with those used in accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of the reinsurance contracts. Reserves are based on the terms of the reinsurance contract and are consistent with the risks assumed. Premiums and benefits ceded to other companies have been reported as a reduction of premium revenue and benefits expense. Amounts applicable to reinsurance ceded for reserves and unpaid claim liabilities have been reported as reductions of these items, and expense allowances received in connection with reinsurance ceded have been reflected in operations. Nonadmitted Assets Nonadmitted assets are summarized as follows: December 31 2003 2002 ---------------- ---------------- (In Thousands) Deferred federal income taxes $ 55,372 $ 54,496 Agents' debit balances 603 519 Deferred and uncollected premium 35 119 Other 751 885 ---------------- ---------------- Total nonadmitted assets $ 56,761 $ 56,019 ================ ================
15 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in nonadmitted assets are generally reported directly in unassigned surplus as an increase or decrease in nonadmitted assets. Changes in nonadmitted invested assets are reported directly in unassigned surplus as a component of the change in unrealized capital gains or losses. Claims and Claims Adjustment Expenses Claims expenses represent the estimated ultimate net cost of all reported and unreported claims incurred through December 31, 2003. The Company does not discount claims and claims adjustment expense reserves. Such estimates are based on actuarial projections applied to historical claims payment data. Such liabilities are considered to be reasonable and adequate to discharge the Company's obligations for claims incurred but unpaid as of December 31, 2003. Cash Flow Information Cash and short-term investments include cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term fixed maturity instruments with a maturity of less than one year at date of acquisition. The Company borrowed $1,342,670,000 and repaid $1,342,670,000 in 2003 and borrowed $1,021,035,000 and repaid $1,021,035,000 in 2002. These borrowings were on a short-term basis, at an interest rate that approximated current money market rates and exclude borrowings from reverse dollar repurchase transactions. Interest paid on borrowed money was $140,000 and $109,000 during 2003 and 2002, respectively. Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts in the Company's statutory basis financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2003 financial statement presentation. 2. Permitted Statutory Basis Accounting Practices The financial statements of the Company are presented on the basis of accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Oklahoma Insurance Department. The Oklahoma Insurance Department recognizes only statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the State of Oklahoma for determining and reporting the financial condition and results of operations of an insurance company for determining its solvency under the Oklahoma Insurance Laws. The NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual has been adopted as a component of prescribed or permitted practices by the state of Oklahoma. The Commissioner of Insurance has the right to permit other specific practices that deviate from prescribed practices. The Company is required to identify those significant accounting practices that are permitted, and obtain written approval of the practices from the Oklahoma Insurance Department.

17 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As of December 31, 2003, the aggregate market values of debt securities with unrealized losses and the time period that cost exceeded market value are as follows: More than 6 Less than 6 months and less More than 12 months below that 12 months months below cost below cost cost Total ----------------- ------------------ ----------------- ------------------ (In Thousands) Fair value $ 912,922 $ 781,315 $ 99,880 $ 1,794,117 Unrealized loss 13,888 40,720 35,269 89,877
Of the unrealized losses more than 6 months and less than 12 months in duration of $40,720,000, there were $8,509,000 in unrealized losses that are primarily related to interest rate movement or spread widening for other than credit-related reasons. For these securities business and operating fundamentals are performing as expected. The remaining unrealized losses of $32,211,000 as of December 31, 2003 included the following significant items: $18,193,000 of unrealized losses related to mortgage-backed and structured securities reviewed for impairment under the guidance prescribed by SSAP 43 Loan-backed and Structured Securities. This category includes U.S. government-backed securities, principal protected securities and structured securities which did not have an adverse change in cash flows for which the fair value was $257,131,000. $3,265,000 of unrealized losses related to the energy/utility industry, for which the fair value was $66,629,000. During 2003, the energy sector recovered due to a gradually improving economic picture and the lack of any material accounting irregularities similar to those experienced in the prior two years. Current analysis indicates that the debt will be serviced in accordance with the contractual terms. $8,488,000 of unrealized losses related to non-domestic issues, with no unrealized loss exposure per country in excess of $2,036,000 for which the fair value was $194,288,000. Credit exposures are primarily in the construction industry in Italy. The remaining unrealized losses totaling $2,265,000 related to a fair value of $31,760,000. Of the unrealized losses more than 12 months in duration of $35,269,000, there were $449,000 in unrealized losses that are primarily related to interest rate movement or spread widening for other than credit-related reasons. Business and operating fundamentals are performing as expected. The remaining losses of $34,820,000 as of December 31, 2003 included the following significant items: 18 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $32,683,000 of unrealized losses related to mortgage-backed and structured securities reviewed for impairment under the guidance prescribed by SSAP 43 Loan-backed and Structured Securities.

During 2003, the energy sector recovered due to a gradually improving economic picture and the lack of any material accounting irregularities similar to those experienced in the prior two years. Current analysis indicates that the debt will be serviced in accordance with the contractual terms. $679,000 of unrealized losses related to the airline industries, for which the fair value was $4,075,000. During 2003, the airline industry continued to suffer from decreased passenger volumes offset by a gradually improving economy. The majority of the airline investments are comprised of Enhanced Equipment Trust Certificates ("EETC"). Current analysis indicates the specific collateral backing the EETC investments is predominantly represented by newer models that are expected to be retained as individual airlines reduce their fleets. The remaining unrealized losses totaling $5,000 relate to a fair value of $245,000. The amortized cost and fair value of investments in bonds at December 31, 2003, by contractual maturity, are shown below.

As part of its overall investment strategy, the Company has entered into agreements to purchase securities as follows: December 31 2003 2002 ---------------- ---------------- (In Thousands) Investment purchase commitments $ 90,956 $ 87,963
20 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company entered into reverse dollar repurchase transactions to increase its return on investments and improve liquidity. Reverse dollar repurchases involve a sale of securities and an agreement to repurchase substantially the same securities as those sold. The reverse dollar repurchases are accounted for as short term collateralized financing and the repurchase obligation is reported in borrowed money. The repurchase obligation totaled $286,886,000 and $173,448,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The securities underlying these agreements are mortgage-backed securities with a book value of $285,832,000 and $173,246,000 and fair value of $288,285,000 and $176,504,000 as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The securities have a weighted average coupon rate of 5.8% and have maturities ranging from December 2018 through December 2033. The primary risk associated with short-term collateralized borrowings is that the counterparty may 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, which was not material at December 31, 2003. The Company believes the counterparties to the reverse dollar repurchase agreements are financially responsible and that the counterparty risk is minimal. The Company participates in reverse repurchase transactions. Such transactions include the sale of corporate securities to a major securities dealer and a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the same security in the near term. The proceeds are invested in new securities of intermediate durations. As of December 31, 2003, there were no outstanding amounts on these agreements. The securities underlying these agreements are mortgage-backed securities with a book value of $11,394,000 and fair value of $11,520,000 at December 31, 2002. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had loaned securities (which are reflected as invested assets on the balance sheet) with a market value of approximately $22,330,000 and $32,662,000, respectively. The maximum and minimum lending rates for long-term mortgage loans during 2003 were 6.07% and 3.40%. Fire insurance is required on all properties covered by mortgage loans and must at least equal the excess of the loan over the maximum loan which would be permitted by law on the land without the buildings. The maximum percentage of any loan to the value of collateral at the time of the loan, exclusive of insured or guaranteed or purchase money mortgages, was 74.7% on commercial properties. As of December 31, 2003, the Company held no mortgages with interest more than 180 days overdue. Total interest due, as of December 31, 2003 is $9,000. In the course of the Company's asset management, securities are sold and reacquired within 30 days of the sale date to enhance the Company's return on the investment portfolio or to manage interest rate risk. 21 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The details by NAIC designation 3 or below of securities sold during 2003 and reacquired within 30 days of the sale date are: Cost of Number of Securities Transactions Book Value Repurchased Gain --------------- --------------- --------------- --------------- (In Thousands) NAIC 3 2 $ 4,730 $ 6,948 $ 1,095
4. Derivative Financial Instruments Held for Purposes Other than Trading The Company enters into derivatives such as swaps caps and floors, to reduce and manage risks, which include the risk of a change in the value, yield, price, cash flows, exchange rates or quantity of, or a degree of exposure with respect to, assets, liabilities, or future cash flows, which the Company has acquired or incurred. Hedge accounting practices are supported by cash flow matching, scenario testing and duration matching. The Company uses interest rate swaps to reduce market risks from changes in interest rates and to alter interest rate exposure arising from mismatches between assets and liabilities. Interest rate swap agreements generally involve the exchange of fixed and floating interest payments over the life of the agreement without an exchange of the underlying principal amount. Interest rate cap and interest rate floor agreements owned entitle the Company to receive payments to the extent reference interest rates exceed or fall below strike levels in the contracts based on the notional amounts. Premiums paid for the purchase of interest rate contracts are included in other invested assets and are being amortized to interest expense over the remaining terms of the contracts or in a manner consistent with the financial instruments being hedged. Amounts paid or received, if any, from such contracts are included in interest expense or income. Accrued amounts payable to or receivable from counterparties are included in other liabilities or other invested assets. Gains or losses realized as a result of early terminations of interest rate contracts are amortized to investment income over the remaining term of the items being hedged to the extent the hedge is considered to be effective; otherwise, they are recognized upon termination. 22 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest rate contracts that are matched or otherwise designated to be associated with other financial instruments are recorded at fair value if the related financial instruments mature, are sold, or are otherwise terminated, or if the interest rate contracts cease to be effective hedges. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded as investment income. The Company manages the potential credit exposure from interest rate contracts through careful evaluation of the counterparties' credit standing, collateral agreements, and master netting agreements. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by counterparties on interest rate contracts; however, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by any of these counterparties. The amount of such exposure is generally the unrealized gains in such contracts. The table below summarizes the Company's interest rate contracts included in other invested assets at December 31, 2003 and 2002: Notional Carrying Fair Amount Value Value --------------- -------------- --------------- (In Thousands) December 31, 2003 Swaps $ 828,066 $ - $ (124,226) Caps and floors 441,243 1,554 7 --------------- -------------- --------------- Total derivatives $ 1,269,309 $ 1,554 $ (124,219) =============== ============== =============== December 31, 2002 Swaps $ 1,146,498 $ - $ (138,473) Caps and floors 548,465 3,393 1,296 --------------- -------------- --------------- Total derivatives $ 1,694,963 $ 3,393 $ (137,177) =============== ============== ===============
5. Concentrations of Credit Risk The Company held less-than-investment-grade bonds with an aggregate book value of $479,259,000 and $435,061,000 and with an aggregate market value of $497,620,000 and $413,437,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. These holdings amounted to 7.7% of the Company's investments in bonds and 6.1% of total admitted assets at December 31, 2003. The holdings of less-than-investment-grade bonds are widely diversified and of satisfactory quality based on the Company's investment policies and credit standards. The Company held unrated bonds of $159,686,000 and $204,268,000 with an aggregate NAIC market value of $161,201,000 and $208,297,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The carrying value of these holdings amounted to 2.0% of the Company's investment in bonds and 2.0% of the Company's total admitted assets at December 31, 2003. 23 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At December 31, 2003, the Company's commercial mortgages involved a concentration of properties located in California (14.06%) and Pennsylvania (9.05%). The remaining commercial mortgages relate to properties located in 37 other states. The portfolio is well diversified; covering many different types of income-producing properties on which the Company has first mortgage liens. The maximum mortgage outstanding on any individual property is $30,000,000. 6. Annuity Reserves At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company's annuity reserves, including those held in deposit fund liabilities that are subject to discretionary withdrawal with adjustment, subject to discretionary withdrawal without adjustment, and not subject to discretionary withdrawal provisions are summarized as follows: Amount Percent ---------------- ---------------- (In Thousands) December 31, 2003 Subject to discretionary withdrawal (with adjustment): With market value adjustment $ 4,536,520 54.0 % At book value less surrender charge of 5% or more 1,995,432 23.7 ---------------- -------------- Subtotal $ 6,531,952 77.7 Subject to discretionary withdrawal (without adjustment): At book value with minimal or no charge or adjustment 1,258,530 15.0 Not subject to discretionary withdrawal 614,236 7.3 ---------------- -------------- Total annuity reserves and deposit fund liabilities before reinsurance $ 8,404,718 100.0 % ============== Less reinsurance ceded 1,346,600 ---------------- Net annuity reserves and deposit fund liabilities $ 7,058,118 ================ December 31, 2002 Subject to discretionary withdrawal (with adjustment): With market value adjustment $ 4,447,295 56.2 % At book value less surrender charge of 5% or more 1,635,038 20.6 ---------------- -------------- Subtotal 6,082,333 76.8 Subject to discretionary withdrawal (without adjustment): At book value with minimal or no charge or adjustment 1,194,281 15.1 Not subject to discretionary withdrawal 641,496 8.1 ---------------- -------------- Total annuity reserves and deposit fund liabilities before reinsurance $ 7,918,110 100.0 % ============== Less reinsurance ceded 895,734 ---------------- Net annuity reserves and deposit fund liabilities $ 7,022,376 ================
24 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7. Reinsurance The Company is involved in both ceded and assumed reinsurance with other companies for the purpose of diversifying risk and limiting exposure on larger risks. To the extent that the assuming companies become unable to meet their obligations under these treaties, the Company remains contingently liable to its policyholders for the portion reinsured. To minimize its exposure to significant losses from retrocessionaire insolvencies, the Company evaluates the financial condition of the retrocessionaire and monitors concentrations of credit risk. Assumed premiums amounted to $7,000 and $136,400,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Company's ceded reinsurance arrangements reduced certain items in the accompanying financial statements by the following amounts: December 31 2003 2002 -------------- --------------- (In Thousands) Premiums $ 561,792 $ 260,544 Benefits paid or provided 13,168 9,447 Policy and contract liabilities at year end 1,347,473 896,762
8. Federal Income Taxes The Company joins in filing a consolidated federal income tax return with its parent, Equitable, and other affiliates. The method of tax allocation is governed by a written tax sharing agreement. The tax sharing agreement provides that each member of the consolidated return shall reimburse Equitable for its respective share of the consolidated federal income tax liability and shall receive a benefit for its losses at the statutory rate. The components of the net deferred tax asset (liability) are as follows: December 31 2003 2002 ---------------- ---------------- (In Thousands) Total deferred tax assets $ 75,954 $ 70,328 Total deferred tax liabilities (2,107) (231) ---------------- ---------------- Net deferred tax asset 73,847 70,097 Deferred tax asset nonadmitted (55,372) (54,496) ---------------- ---------------- Net admitted deferred tax asset $ 18,475 $ 15,601 ================ ================ (Increase) decrease in nonadmitted asset $ (876) $ 1,337 ================ ================

26 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The change in net deferred income taxes is comprised of the following: December 31 2003 2002 Change -------------- -------------- -------------- (In Thousands) Total deferred tax assets $ 75,954 $ 70,328 $ 5,626 Total deferred tax liabilities 2,107 231 1,876 -------------- -------------- -------------- Net deferred tax asset $ 73,847 $ 70,097 $ 3,750 ============== ============== Remove current year change in unrealized gains (1,538) -------------- Change in net deferred income tax 2,212 Remove other items in surplus: Current year change in non-admitted assets 44 Other (3,310) -------------- Change in deferred taxes for rate reconciliation $ (1,054) ==============
The provision for federal income taxes incurred and change in deferred taxes is different from that which would be obtained by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to income (including capital items) before income taxes. The significant items causing this difference are: Year Ended December 31, 2003 ----------------- (In Thousands) Ordinary loss $ (42,829) Capital gains 9,786 ------------------ Total pre-tax book loss (33,043) ================== Provision (benefit) computed at statutory rate (11,565) Refinement of deferred tax balances 1,116 Interest maintenance reserve 2,326 Other 2 ------------------ Total $ (8,121) ================== Federal income tax incurred $ (9,175) Change in net deferred income tax 1,054 ------------------ Total statutory income tax benefit $ (8,121) ==================
There are no federal income taxes incurred that will be available for recoupment in the event of future net losses for 2003 and 2002. The Company had receivables of $2,285,000 and $6,562,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, for federal income taxes under the intercompany tax sharing agreement 27 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9. Capital and Surplus Under Oklahoma insurance regulations, the Company is required to maintain a minimum total capital and surplus of $750,000. Additionally, the amount of dividends that can be paid by the Company to its stockholder without prior approval of the Oklahoma Insurance Department is limited to the greater of 10% of statutory surplus or the statutory net gain from operations. Life and health insurance companies are subject to certain Risk-Based Capital ("RBC") requirements as specified by the NAIC. Under those requirements, the amount of capital and surplus maintained by a life and health insurance company is to be determined based on the various risk factors related to it. At December 31, 2003, the Company meets the RBC requirements. 10. Fair Values of Financial Instruments Life insurance liabilities that contain mortality risk and all nonfinancial instruments have been excluded from the disclosure requirements. However, the fair values of liabilities under all insurance contracts are taken into consideration in the Company's overall management of interest rate risk, such that the Company's exposure to changing interest rates is minimized through the matching of investment maturities with amounts due under insurance contracts. The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments are summarized as follows: December 31 2003 2002 ----------------------------- ------------------------------ Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Amount Value Amount Value ------------- ------------ ------------- ------------- (In Thousands) Assets: Bonds $ 6,231,961 $ 6,406,763 $ 6,116,495 $ 6,336,335 Preferred stocks 1,273 1,273 1,088 1,088 Mortgage loans 1,471,607 1,576,183 1,483,855 1,632,720 Contract loans 32,247 32,247 32,454 32,454 Derivative securities 1,554 (124,219) 3,393 (137,177) Short-term investments 16,651 16,651 5,650 5,650 Cash 11,088 11,088 3,466 3,466 Receivable for securities 341 341 2,873 2,873 Liabilities: Individual and group annuities 6,833,372 6,645,174 6,775,875 6,621,753 Deposit type contract 224,767 235,291 246,501 258,945
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value disclosures for financial instruments in the accompanying financial statements and notes thereto: 28 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cash and short-term investments: The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying balance sheets for these financial instruments approximate their fair values. Fixed maturities: The fair values for bonds and preferred stocks reported herein are based on quoted market prices, where available. For securities not actively traded, fair values are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services or, in the case of private placements, collateralized mortgage obligations and other mortgage derivative investments, are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows. The discount rates used vary as a function of factors such as yield, credit quality, and maturity, which fall within a range between 2% and 12% over the total portfolio. Fair values determined on this basis can differ from values published by the SVO. Market value as determined by the SVO as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 is $6,263,837,000 and $6,154,770,000, respectively. Mortgage loans: Estimated market values for commercial real estate loans were generated using a discounted cash flow approach. Loans in good standing are discounted using interest rates determined by U.S. Treasury yields on December 31 and spreads applied on new loans with similar characteristics. The amortizing features of all loans are incorporated in the valuation. Where data on option features is available, option values are determined using a binomial valuation method, and are incorporated into the mortgage valuation. Restructured loans are valued in the same manner; however, these loans were discounted at a greater spread to reflect increased risk. All residential loans are valued at their outstanding principal balances, which approximate their fair values. Derivative financial instruments: Fair values for on-balance-sheet derivative financial instruments (caps and floors) and off-balance-sheet derivative financial instruments (swaps) are based on broker/dealer valuations or on internal discounted cash flow pricing models taking into account current cash flow assumptions and the counterparties' credit standing. Other investment-type insurance contracts: The fair values of the Company's deferred annuity contracts are estimated based on the cash surrender values. The carrying values of other policyholder liabilities, including immediate annuities, dividend accumulations, supplementary contracts without life contingencies, and premium deposits, approximate their fair values. The carrying value of all other financial instruments approximates their fair value. 1. 29 USG ANNUITY & LIFE COMPANY Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Policies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11. Commitments and Contingencies The Company is a party to threatened or pending lawsuits arising from the normal conduct of business. Due to the climate in insurance and business litigation, 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 pending lawsuits, in light of existing insurance, reinsurance and established reserves, it is the opinion of management that the disposition of such lawsuits will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's operations or financial position. The Company has committed to provide additional capital contributions of $31,599,000 in partnership investments at December 31, 2003. 12.

Guaranty Fund Assessments Insurance companies are assessed the costs of funding the insolvencies of other insurance companies by the various state guaranty associations, generally based on the amount of premiums companies collect in that state. The Company accrues the cost of future guaranty fund assessments based on estimates of insurance company insolvencies provided by the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Associations ("NOLHGA") and the amount of premiums written in each state. The Company has estimated this liability to be $12,422,000 and $12,397,000 as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively and has recorded a reserve. The Company has also recorded an asset of $34,000 and $2,451,000 as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, for future credits to premium taxes for assessments already paid. 15.

Golden requested that the Delaware Insurance Department approve the redomestication of Golden from Delaware to Iowa effective January 1, 2004. Equitable, ULA, and the Company requested the Iowa Department of Insurance (for Equitable and ULA) and the Oklahoma Insurance Department (for the Company) approve the merger of the affiliated life insurance company operations of Equitable, ULA, Golden, and the Company with Golden being the survivor. The sequence of events, effective January 1, 2004, was as follows: redomestication of Golden to Iowa, merger of the four affiliated insurers with Golden being the survivor, and the renaming of Golden to ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company.

5 1. Pro Forma Consolidation Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations ("FAS 141"), excludes transfers of net assets or exchanges of shares between entities under common control, and notes that certain provisions under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16, Business Combinations ("APB 16"), provide a source of guidance for such transactions. In accordance with APB 16, financial information of the combined entity is presented as if the entities had been combined for the full year, and all comparative financial statements are restated and presented as if the entities had previously been combined, in a manner similar to a pooling-of-interests. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in a manner similar to a pooling-of-interests, in accordance with the provisions of APB 16 in order to present the condensed financial position and results of operations of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company ("ING USA"), Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa ("ELIC"), United Life & Annuity Insurance Company ("ULA"), and USG Annuity & Life Company ("USG"), as if the entities had previously been combined. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and income statements give effect to the consolidation transaction as if it had occurred on December 31, 2003 and January 1, 2000, respectively. Following is a description of the pro forma adjustments that have been made to the financial statements. All pro forma adjustments are elimination entries related to intercompany transactions between the entities, as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. There were no other pro forma adjustments. (1) Prior to the merger, ING USA and USG were wholly owned subsidiaries of ELIC. The pro forma adjustment eliminates the ELIC investment in ING USA and USG subsidiaries. (2) Prior to the merger, ING USA had an outstanding surplus note payable to ELIC. The pro forma adjustment eliminates the surplus note and related interest between ING USA and ELIC. (3) All of the shares of capital stock of ELIC, USG, and ULA, will be canceled and retired, and ceased to exist, as of the merger with ING USA. (4) Prior to the merger, ING USA and USG were wholly owned subsidiaries of ELIC. The pro forma adjustment eliminates the ELIC equity in ING USA and USG income. 6 2. Accounting for Goodwill and Intangible Assets The cumulative effect of change in accounting principle for the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statements for the year ended December 31, 2002, reflects the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, ("FAS 142"). During 2002, ING USA and the Merger Companies adopted FAS 142. The adoption of this standard resulted in an impairment loss of $1,298.5 million in 2002. This impairment loss represented the entire carrying amount of goodwill, net of accumulated amortization, and is recorded as a change in accounting principle for year ended December 31, 2002. Effective January 1, 2002, ING USA and the Merger Companies applied the non-amortization provision (net of tax) of the new standard, which resulted in an increase in net income of $37.0 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2002. Had ING USA and the Merger Companies been accounting for goodwill under FAS 142 for all periods presented, the Company's net income (loss) would have been as follows: Year ended December 31, (Millions) 2001 -------------- Pro forma consolidated net income (loss) $ (22.3) Add back goodwill amortization, net of tax 37.0 -------------- Adjusted pro forma consolidated net income $ 14.7 ==============
3. Statutory Merger On January 1, 2003, Ameribest Life Insurance Company ("AMB"), an affiliated life insurance company domiciled in Georgia, was merged with ELIC. As FAS 141 excludes transfers of net assets or exchanges of shares between entities under common control, the merger was based on certain provisions under APB 16, which provide a source of guidance for such transactions. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in a manner similar to a pooling-of-interests, in accordance with the provisions of APB 16, in order to present the condensed results of operations of ELIC and AMB as if the entities had previously been combined. The pro forma condensed consolidated income statements give effect to the consolidation transaction as if it had occurred on January 1, 2001.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2003, by correspondence with the transfer agents. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as 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 each of the Divisions comprising the Separate Account B of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company at December 31, 2003, and the results of their operations and changes in their net assets for the periods disclosed in the financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Atlanta, Georgia March 15, 2004 Separate Account B of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company Separate Account B) Statements of Assets and Liabilities December 31, 2003 (Dollars in thousands) ING GET ING GET ING GET ING GET ING GET Fund- Fund- Fund- Fund- Fund- Series N Series P Series Q Series R Series S -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- Assets Investments in mutual funds at fair value $ 23,359 $ 110,106 $ 131,121 $ 134,782 $ 161,841 -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- Total assets 23,359 110,106 131,121 134,782 161,841 Liabilities Payable to Golden American Life Insurance Company 2 5 26 27 21 -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- Total liabilities 2 5 26 27 21 -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- Net assets $ 23,357 $ 110,101 $ 131,095 $ 134,755 $ 161,820 ============== ============== ============== ============== ============== Net assets Accumulation units $ 23,357 $ 110,101 $ 131,095 $ 134,755 $ 161,820 Contracts in payout (annuitization) period - - - - - -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- Total net assets $ 23,357 $ 110,101 $ 131,095 $ 134,755 $ 161,820 ============== ============== ============== ============== ============== Total number of mutual fund shares 2,272,268 10,679,507 12,416,773 12,584,677 15,196,346 ============== ============== ============== ============== ============== Cost of mutual fund shares $ 22,900 $ 107,312 $ 124,504 $ 126,099 $ 152,322 ============== ============== ============== ============== ==============

Also on January 1, 2004, immediately after the merger, Golden American changed its name to ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company. As of the merger date, the Merger Companies ceased to exist and were succeeded by ING USA. In conjunction with the Golden American name change, the Account changed its name to Separate Account B of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company. 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. During 2003, the Account had ING GoldenSelect Contracts, ING SmartDesign Contracts, ING Rollover Choice Contracts, ING Focus Variable Annuity ("Focus VA") Contracts, and Wells Fargo ING Contracts. ING GoldenSelect Contracts sold by ING USA during 2003 included Access, Premium Plus, ESII, Access One, Landmark, Generations, and Opportunities Contracts. ING SmartDesign Contracts included Variable Annuity ("VA"), Advantage, and Signature Contracts. Wells Fargo ING Contracts included Opportunities Contracts and Landmark Contracts. The Account discontinued offering DVA 80 Contracts in May 1991 and discontinued registering DVA and DVA Series 100 Contracts for sale to the public as of May 1, 2000. 119 Separate Account B of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company Separate Account B) Notes to Financial Statements 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.

Significant Accounting Policies The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Account: Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Investments Investments are made in shares of a Series or Portfolio of the Trusts and are recorded at fair value, determined by the net asset value per share of the respective Series or Portfolio of the Trusts. Investment transactions in each Series or Portfolio of the Trusts are recorded on the trade date. Distributions of net investment income and capital gains from each Series or Portfolio of the Trusts are recognized on the ex-distribution date. Realized gains and losses on redemptions of the shares of the Series or Portfolio of the Trusts 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 Golden American, 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 Golden American. Transfers Transfers between the Account and ING USA relate to gains and losses resulting from actual mortality experience, the full responsibility for which is assumed by ING USA, Contractowner transfers between the general account and the Divisions, and other Contractowner activity, including Contract deposits and withdrawals. Unsettled transactions as of the reporting date appear on a net basis in the line Payable to ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. 125 Separate Account B of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company Separate Account B) Notes to Financial Statements 3. 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 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. Granite PrimElite has two death benefit options referred to as Standard and Annual Ratchet. 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. 126 Separate Account B of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company Separate Account B) Notes to Financial Statements Daily charges deducted at annual rates to cover these risks follows: Series Annual Rates ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------- DVA 80 0.80% DVA 0.90 DVA Series 100 1.25 DVA Plus (pre February 2000) Standard 1.10 DVA Plus (post January 2000) Standard 1.15 DVA Plus (post 2000) Standard 1.15 DVA Plus (pre February 2000) Annual Ratchet 1.25 DVA Plus (pre February 2000) 5.5% Solution 1.25 DVA Plus (post January 2000) 5.5% Solution 1.25 DVA Plus (post 2000) 5.5% Solution 1.30 DVA Plus (post January 2000) Annual Ratchet 1.30 DVA Plus (pre February 2000) 7% Solution 1.40 DVA Plus (post January 2000) Max 5.5 1.40 DVA Plus (post 2000) Annual Ratchet 1.40 DVA Plus (post 2000) Max 5.5 1.45 DVA Plus (post January 2000) 7% Solution 1.50 DVA Plus (post 2000) 7% Solution 1.50 DVA Plus (post January 2000) Max 7 1.60 DVA Plus (post 2000) Max 7 1.60 Access (pre February 2000) Standard 1.25 Access (post January 2000) Standard 1.30 Access (post 2000) Standard 1.30 Access (pre February 2000) Annual Ratchet 1.40 Access (pre February 2000) 5.5% Solution 1.40 Access (post January 2000) Annual Ratchet 1.45 Access (post January 2000) 5.5 % Solution 1.45 Access (post 2000) 5.5% Solution 1.45 Access (pre February 2000) 7% Solution 1.55 Access (post January 2000) Max 5.5 1.55 Access (post 2000) Annual Ratchet 1.55 Access (post 2000) Max 5.5 1.60 Access (post January 2000) 7% Solution 1.65

Other Contract 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. 130 Separate Account B of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (formerly Golden American Life Insurance Company Separate Account B) Notes to Financial Statements Deferred Sales Load Under Contracts offered prior to October 1995, a sales load of up to 7.5% 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 3.5% of premiums. Fees Waived by Golden American 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.

Secretary 20 Washington Avenue South Minneapolis, MN 55402 ITEM 26: PERSONS CONTROLLED BY OR UNDER COMMON CONTROL WITH THE DEPOSITOR OR REGISTRANT The following persons control or are under common control with the Depositor: DIRECTED SERVICES, INC. ("DSI") - This corporation is a general business corporation organized under the laws of the State of New York, and is wholly owned by ING Groep, N.V. ("ING"). The primary purpose of DSI is to act as a broker-dealer in securities. It acts as the principal underwriter and distributor of variable insurance products including variable annuities as required by the SEC. The contracts are issued by the Depositor. DSI also has the power to carry on a general financial, securities, distribution, advisory or investment advisory business; to act as a general agent or broker for insurance companies and to render advisory, managerial, research and consulting services for maintaining and improving managerial efficiency and operation. DSI is also registered with the SEC as an investment adviser. The Depositor is under common control with a New York company, ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York ("RLNY"). The primary purpose of RLNY is to offer variable products in the state of New York. The registrant is a segregated asset account of the Company and is therefore owned and controlled by the Company. All of the Company's outstanding stock is owned and controlled by ING. Various companies and other entities controlled by ING may therefore be considered to be under common control with the registrant or the Company. Such other companies and entities, together with the identity of their controlling persons (where applicable), are set forth on the following organizational chart. Subsidiaries of ING Groep N.V. incorporated herein by reference to Item 26 in Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement on Form N-4 (File No. 333-90516), as filed on April 9, 2004 for Separate Account B of ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company. ITEM 27: NUMBER OF CONTRACT OWNERS As of August 31, 2004, there are 194,991 qualified contract owners and 188,463 non-qualified contract owners in ING USA's Separate Account B. ITEM 28: INDEMNIFICATION ING USA shall indemnify (including therein the prepayment of expenses) any person who is or was a director, officer or employee, or who is or was serving at the request of ING USA as a director, officer or employee of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise for expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him with respect to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceedings against him by reason of the fact that he is or was such a director, officer or employee to the extent and in the manner permitted by law. ING USA may also, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify any other person who is or was serving ING USA in any capacity. The Board of Directors shall have the power and authority to determine who may be indemnified under this paragraph and to what extent (not to exceed the extent provided in the above paragraph) any such person may be indemnified. ING USA or its parents may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any such person or persons to be indemnified under the provision in the above paragraphs, against any such liability to the extent permitted by law. 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, Inc. ("DSI"), the Registrant's Distributor, serves as principal underwriter for all contracts issued by ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company. DSI is the principal underwriter for Separate Account A, Separate Account B, ING USA Separate Account EQ (formerly known as Equitable Life Insurance Company of Iowa Separate Account A), ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York Separate Account NY-B, Alger Separate Account A of ING USA and the ING Investors Trust. (b) The following information is furnished with respect to the principal officers and directors of Directed Services, Inc., the Registrant's Distributor. The principal business address for each officer and director following is 1475 Dunwoody Drive, West Chester, PA 19380-1478, unless otherwise noted.
