Important Information about the Substitutions.

After April 28, 2006, the effective date of the substitutions, the subaccounts which invest in the Replaced Funds will no longer be available through your variable annuity contract/life insurance policy.

Prior to the effective date of the substitutions and for thirty days thereafter you may transfer amounts allocated to a subaccount which invests in a Replaced Fund to any other subaccount or the fixed account free of charge and any such transfer will not count as a transfer when imposing any applicable restriction or limit on transfers.

On the effective date of the substitutions, all amounts you have allocated to the subaccount which invests in a Replaced Fund will automatically be reallocated to the subaccount which invests in a corresponding Substitute Fund. Thereafter, all future allocations directed to a subaccount which invests in a Replaced Fund will be automatically allocated to the corresponding Substitute Fund.

Variable annuity contract/life insurance policy owners who have contract/policy value allocated to one or more of the subaccounts which correspond to these funds may leave their contract/policy value in those subaccounts, but future allocations and transfers into those subaccounts will be prohibited. If your most recent premium allocation instructions includes a subaccount which corresponds to one of these funds, premium received after April 28, 2006, which would have been allocated to a subaccount corresponding to one of these funds will be allocated on a pro rata basis among all the other available subaccounts in which your contract/policy value is allocated. If there are no other such subaccounts, you must provide us with alternative allocation instructions or the premium payment will be returned to you. For variable life insurance policy owners, your failure to provide us with alternative allocation instructions and our return of your premium payment(s) may result in your policy entering the 61 day grace period and/or your policy lapsing without value.
