A.    REVISED GAWA% TABLES UNDER THE LIFEGUARD FREEDOM 6 NET AND LIFEGUARD FREEDOM FLEX GMWBs.

1.    Single Life versions of the LifeGuard Freedom 6 Net and LifeGuard Freedom Flex GMWBs

For single life versions of the LifeGuard Freedom 6 Net and LifeGuard Freedom Flex GMWBs issued on or after September 15, 2014, there are five different Guaranteed Annual Withdrawal Amount percentage tables ("GAWA% tables") that may be available, each with different corresponding charges. The five GAWA% tables are: the Income Stream Level 1 GAWA% Table; the Income Stream Level 2 GAWA% Table; the Income Stream Level 3 GAWA% Table; the Income Stream Level 4 GAWA% Table; and the Income Stream Level 5 GAWA% Table. The Income Stream Level 4 and Income Stream Level 5 GAWA% Tables offer the same Guaranteed Annual Withdrawal Amount percentages and charges as the Base GAWA% Table and the Optional Income Upgrade Table, respectively, appearing on pages 82 and 108 of the prospectus. The Income Stream Level 1, Income Stream Level 2, and Income Stream Level 3 GAWA% Tables offer reduced Guaranteed Annual Withdrawal Amount percentages at a lower cost. The prospectus is revised as follows:

Under the section titled "FEES AND EXPENSES TABLES", the following revisions to the optional endorsement maximum charges and related footnotes are made to the fee table beginning on page 5 of the prospectus:

2.    Closed Investment Division

Effective September 15, 2014, the Investment Division of the Separate Account investing in the JNL/Mellon Capital Communications Sector Fund ("the Division") stopped accepting any additional allocations or transfers.

Important Note: If you currently have an automatic program, such as Dollar Cost Averaging, Dollar Cost Averaging Plus, Earnings Sweep, and Rebalancing, and it includes an allocation to the Division, you can continue to include the Division under the program based on your existing election until you revise or terminate the automatic program. Any change to the existing automatic program is not permitted if you wish to continue to include an allocation to the Division under the program. The Division is not available for any new or revised allocation instructions under any automatic program.

If you have allocation instructions for future premium payments on file with us that include an allocation to the Division, you must choose a replacement Investment Division.  If you require descriptions of the other Investment Divisions available under your contract, you can obtain an additional copy of the product prospectus, and additional copies of the prospectuses for the Funds underlying the Investment Divisions by contacting our Annuity Service Center.  If you have not chosen a replacement Investment Division and make a subsequent premium payment, all such allocations to the Division prior to our receipt of new allocation instructions from you will be allocated to the JNL/WMC Money Market Investment Division.  Your representative can assist you in subsequently reallocating the Contract Value in the JNL/WMC Money Market Investment Division to any other available investment option.

If you have the Jackson Select Protector Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit (GMWB), automatic transfers apply under the Transfer of Assets provision. The automatic transfers are allocated based on your allocation instructions for future premium payments, described in the preceding paragraph.  Therefore, when you change your allocation instructions for future premium payments, you will also be changing your instructions under the Transfer of Assets provision. Prior to our receipt of new allocation instructions, the automatic transfers will continue to be based on your existing instructions.

Amounts invested in the Division as of September 12, 2014 will remain invested unless we receive instruction from you. You may continue to make transfers and withdrawals out of the Division in connection with the usual transactions under a Contract, such as partial withdrawals or withdrawals under a GMWB, if available. However, if you transfer out of the Division on or after September 15, 2014 you will not be able to transfer back in.

For additional information, please see the Supplement dated September 15, 2014 to the JNL® Variable Fund LLC prospectus.

The following paragraph is inserted following the list of Funds located on the back of the first page of the prospectus:

As of September 15, 2014, the JNL/Mellon Capital Communications Sector Fund will be closed to investors, but available as an underlying Fund for a Fund of Funds.

3.    Fund Merger

Effective September 15, 2014,  the JNL/Mellon Capital NYSE® International 25 Fund merged into the JNL/Mellon Capital International Index Fund.

If you have allocation instructions for future premium payments on file with us, or have existing Dollar Cost Averaging, Dollar Cost Averaging Plus, Earnings Sweep and/or Rebalancing automatic programs, that include an allocation to the JNL/Mellon Capital NYSE® International 25 Investment Division, all such allocations prior to our receipt of new allocation instructions from you will be allocated to the JNL/Mellon Capital International Index Investment Division.

If you have Contract Value that was transferred from the JNL/Mellon Capital NYSE® International 25 Investment Division to the JNL/Mellon Capital International Index Investment Division as a result of the merger, you may transfer your Contract Value out of the JNL/Mellon Capital International Index Investment Division into the other investment options available under your contract. If the transfer is completed within 60 days following the effective date of the merger, the transfer will not be assessed a transfer charge or be treated as a transfer for the purpose of determining how many subsequent transfers may be made in a Contract Year without charge.

Item 26. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control with the Depositor or Registrant.

The Registrant is a separate account of Jackson National Life Insurance Company ("Depositor"), a stock life insurance company organized under the laws of the state of Michigan.  The Depositor is a wholly owned subsidiary of Brooke Life Insurance Company and is ultimately a wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential plc (London, England), a publicly traded life insurance company in the United Kingdom.

The following organizational chart for Prudential plc indicates those persons who are controlled by or under common control with the Depositor. No person is controlled by the Registrant.

The organizational chart for Prudential plc is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 26 of Post-Effective Amendment No. 13, filed on September 11, 2014 (File Nos. 333-183048 and 811-08664).

Item 27. Number of Contract Owners as of July 31, 2014

Qualified – 299,233
Non-Qualified – 141,258

Item 28. Indemnification

Provision is made in the Company's Amended By-Laws for indemnification by the Company of any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to a civil, criminal, administrative or Investigative action by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceedings, to the extent and under the circumstances permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Michigan.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 ("Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against liabilities  (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company 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  whether  such  indemnification  by  it is  against  public  policy  as expressed  in the Act and will be  governed  by the final  adjudication  of such issue.

Item 29. Principal Underwriter
