NOTICE OF AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT UPCOMING FUND REORGANIZATIONS

 

The following information only affects you if you currently invest in or plan to invest in the subaccounts that correspond to the Voya Global Resources and
Voya International Value Portfolios.

 

The Boards of Trustees of Voya Investors Trust and Voya Variable Products Trust approved separate proposals to reorganize certain funds. Subject to shareholder approval, effective after the close of business on or about March 6, 2015, (the “Reorganization Date”), the following Merging Funds will reorganize with and into the following Surviving Fund:

 

Merging Funds

Surviving Fund

Voya Global Resources Portfolio (Class I)

Voya Global Value Advantage Portfolio (Class I)

Voya International Value Portfolio (Class I)[1]

 

Voluntary Transfers Before the Reorganization Date. Prior to the Reorganization Date, you may transfer amounts allocated to a subaccount that invests in a Merging Fund to any other available subaccount or to the fixed account. See the Transfers section of your policy prospectus for information about making subaccount transfers, including applicable restrictions and limits on transfers.

 

On the Reorganization Date. On the Reorganization Date, your investment in a subaccount that invests in a Merging Fund will automatically become an investment in the subaccount that invests in the Surviving Fund with an equal total net asset value. You will not incur any tax liability because of this automatic reallocation, and your policy value immediately before the reallocation will equal your policy value immediately after the reallocation.

 

Automatic Fund Reallocation After the Reorganization Date. After the Reorganization Date, the Merging Funds will no longer be available through your policy. Unless you provide us with alternative allocation instructions, after the Reorganization Date all allocations directed to the subaccount that invests in the Voya Global Resources Portfolio will be automatically allocated to the subaccount that invests in the Voya Global Value Advantage Portfolio. See the Transfers section of your policy prospectus for information about making fund allocation changes.

 

Allocation Instructions. You may give us alternative allocation instructions at any time by contacting Customer Service at P.O. Box 5011, Minot, ND 58702-5011, 1-877-886-5050 or www.voyalifecustomerservice.com.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY

 

Information about the ReliaStar Life Insurance Company found in your policy prospectus and Statement of Additional Information is deleted and replaced with the following:

 

ReliaStar Life Insurance Company (“ReliaStar,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “company”) issues the variable universal life insurance policy described in the prospectus and is responsible for providing the policy’s insurance benefits. All guarantees and benefits provided under the policy that are not related to the variable account are subject to the claims paying ability of the company and our general account. We are a stock life insurance company organized in 1885 and incorporated under the laws of the State of Minnesota. We are admitted to do business in the District of Columbia and all states except New York. Our headquarters is at 20 Washington Avenue South, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55401.

 

We are an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Voya Financial, Inc. (“VoyaTM”), which until April 7, 2014, was known as ING U.S., Inc. In May, 2013, the common stock of Voya began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “VOYA” and Voya completed its initial public offering of common stock.

 

Voya is an affiliate of ING Groep N.V. (“ING”), a global financial institution active in the fields of insurance, banking and asset management. In 2009 ING announced the anticipated separation of its global banking and insurance businesses, including the divestiture of Voya, which together with its subsidiaries, including the company, constitutes ING’s U.S.-based retirement, investment management and insurance operations. As of November 18, 2014, ING’s ownership of Voya was approximately 19%. Under an agreement with the European Commission, ING is required to divest itself of 100% of Voya by the end of 2016.
