HIGHLIGHTS

THE CONTRACT

 Who Should Invest.  The Contract is designed for investors seeking long-term tax-deferred accumulation of funds.  The goal for this accumulation is generally retirement, but may be for other long-term investment purposes.  We offer the Contract as both a Qualified Contract and a Non-Qualified Contract.  (See "FEDERAL TAX STATUS")

The tax advantages provided by a variable annuity are already available with tax-qualified plans, including IRAs and Roth IRAs.  You should carefully consider the advantages and disadvantages of owning a variable annuity in a tax-qualified plan, including the costs and benefits of the Contract (including the annuity payment options), before you purchase the Contract in a tax-qualified plan.  There should be reasons other than tax deferral for acquiring an annuity contract within a qualified plan.

The Contract. The Contract is an individual flexible premium deferred variable annuity.  In order to purchase a Contract, you must complete an application and submit it to us through a licensed Kansas City Life representative, who is also a registered representative of Sunset Financial Services, Inc. ("Sunset Financial").  You must pay the minimum initial premium.  The maximum Issue Age is 80.  (See "PURCHASING A CONTRACT")

We offer other variable annuity contracts that have a different death benefit and different contract features.  However, these contracts also have different charges that would affect your Subaccount performance and Contract Value.  To obtain more information about the other contracts, contact our Home Office or your registered representative.

Free-Look Period.  You have the right to cancel your Contract and receive a refund if you return the Contract within 10 days after receiving it.  The amount returned to you will vary depending on your state.  (See "FREE-LOOK PERIOD")

Premiums. The minimum amount that we will accept as an initial premium is $10,000.  You may pay additional premiums at any time during the Annuitant’s lifetime and before the Maturity Date.  The minimum premium allowed after the initial premium is $50.  (See "PURCHASING A CONTRACT")  We reserve the right to waive the $10,000 minimum premium requirement for certain corporate markets contracts.

Premium Allocation.  You direct the allocation of premium payments among the Subaccounts of the Variable Account and/or the Fixed Account.  In the Contract application, you specify the percentage of the premium, in whole numbers, you want allocated to each Subaccount and/or to the Fixed Account.  We will invest the assets of each Subaccount in a corresponding Portfolio of a designated Fund.  The Contract Value, except for amounts in the Fixed Account, will vary according to the investment performance of the Subaccounts.  We will credit interest to amounts in the Fixed Account at a guaranteed minimum rate.  We may declare a higher current interest rate.

The sum of your allocations must equal 100%.  We have the right to limit the number of Subaccounts to which you may allocate premiums (not applicable to Texas Contracts).  We will never limit the number to less than 15.  You can change the allocation percentages at any time by sending Written Notice.  You can make changes in your allocation by telephone, facsimile and electronic mail if you have provided proper authorization.  (See "TELEPHONE, FACSIMILE, ELECTRONIC MAIL, AND INTERNET AUTHORIZATIONS")  The change will apply to the premium payments received with or after receipt of your notice.

We will allocate the initial premium to the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount for a 15-day period in states that:

· require premium payments to be refunded under the free-look provision; or

· require the greater of premium payments or Contract Value to be refunded under the free-look provision.

At the end of that period, we will allocate the amount in the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount to the Subaccounts and Fixed Account according to your allocation instructions.  (See "ALLOCATION OF PREMIUMS")

Transfers.  After the free look period and before the Maturity Date, you may transfer amounts among the Subaccounts and the Fixed Account.  Certain restrictions apply.  The first six transfers during a Contract Year are free.  After the first six transfers, we will assess a $25 transfer processing fee.  (See "TRANSFER PRIVILEGE")

We have policies and procedures that attempt to detect frequent, large, programmed or short-term transfers among Subaccounts that may adversely affect other Owners and persons with rights under the Contracts.  We employ various

3

means to try to detect such transfer activity, but the detection and deterrence of harmful trading activity involves judgments that are inherently subjective.  Our ability to detect such transfer activity may be limited by operational and technological systems, as well as our ability to predict strategies employed by Owners to avoid such detection.  Accordingly, there is no assurance that we will prevent all transfer activity that may adversely affect Owners and other persons with interests under the Contracts.  In addition, we cannot guarantee that the Funds will not be harmed by transfer activity related to other insurance companies and/or retirement plans that may invest in the Funds.

Full and Partial Surrender.  You may surrender all or part of the Cash Surrender Value (subject to certain limitations) any time before the earlier of:

· the date that the Annuitant dies; or

· the Maturity Date.

Certain partial surrenders, depending on the amount and timing, may negatively impact the benefits and guarantees provided by your Contract.  You should carefully consider whether a withdrawal under a particular circumstance will have any negative impact to your benefits or guarantees.  The impact of partial surrenders on your benefits and guarantees is discussed in the corresponding sections of the Prospectus describing such benefits and guarantees.

Five PlusSMGuaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit.If you are concerned that poor investment performance or market volatility may adversely impact the amount of money you may withdraw from the Contract, we offer, for a fee, a guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit.  Under the rider, we provide alternative guarantees depending on the amount you withdraw and the age of the covered person.  If you satisfy the conditions of the rider, which, in part, limit the amount you may withdraw during a Contract Year, the rider guarantees the return of all the amounts you have invested in the Contract and may also guarantee annual payments for the rest of the covered person’s life, no matter how long the covered person lives.

Subaccount Bonus.  There are two bonuses that will be credited to the Variable Account Value.  We credit the first bonus on each Monthly Anniversary Date where the Contract Value is greater than or equal to $100,000 on that day.  The monthly amount of this bonus equals 0.0125% of the Variable Account Value, which equals 0.15% on an annualized basis.

We credit a second bonus on all Contracts, regardless of size.  After the eighth Contract Year, we credit this bonus each Monthly Anniversary Date to the Variable Account Value.  The monthly amount of this bonus equals 0.01665% of the Variable Account Value, which equals 0.20% on an annualized basis.

Both of the bonuses are guaranteed.  We pay these bonus amounts out of the increased revenues on Contracts that have been in force for longer periods of time and the expense efficiencies that result from Contracts with higher Contract Values. These bonus amounts are provided in lieu of reducing expenses directly.  We will not attempt to recapture the bonus at any time, including upon surrender, death or election of an annuity option.  Each of the bonuses, if applicable, is paid on the Variable Account Value on the Monthly Anniversary Date.

Death Benefit Before the Maturity Date.  If the Annuitant dies before the Maturity Date while the Contract is in force, the Beneficiary will receive a death benefit.  The death benefit will be calculated depending upon which Guaranteed Death Benefit Option is in effect on the Contract at the date of death.  There is a base Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option.  One of two enhanced options may be chosen at issue.  There is an additional charge assessed each month if one of the enhanced options is selected.  There are three Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Options available as follows:

· Base Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option;

· Annual Ratchet Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option; and

· Enhanced Combination Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option.

The issue requirements and the Monthly Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Expense Charges vary for each Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option.  (See “DEATH BENEFIT BEFORE MATURITY DATE”)

The minimum death benefit (Base Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option) is equal to the greater of:

· premiums paid, proportionately adjusted for any surrenders (including applicable surrender charges) less any loan balance; and

· the Contract Value on the date we receive due proof of Annuitant's death (including any documents we require to process and make the payments).

4

If you die before the Maturity Date, the Cash Surrender Value (or, if the Owner is also the Annuitant, the death benefit) must generally be distributed to the Beneficiary within five years after the date of the Owner's death.  (See “DEATH BENEFIT BEFORE MATURITY DATE”)

The Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit is paid to the Beneficiary at the death of the Annuitant if the Annuitant dies before the Maturity Date.  If the Owner, who is not the same as the Annuitant, predeceases the Annuitant before the Maturity Date, the Cash Surrender Value of the Contract will be paid to the Beneficiary.

Death benefit Proceeds are taxable and generally are included in the income of the recipient as follows:

· If received under a payment option, they are taxed in the same manner as annuity payments.

· If distributed in a lump sum, they are taxed in the same manner as a full surrender.

CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS

The following charges and deductions apply to the Contract:

Surrender Charge.  We do not deduct a charge for sales expenses from premiums at the time they are paid.  However, we may deduct a surrender charge when a premium is withdrawn upon a surrender or partial surrender or applied to certain annuity options during the first eight years following the payment of that premium.

The surrender charge is calculated as a percentage of your premium payment being withdrawn or annuitized during the applicable Premium Year.  The amount of the surrender charge decreases over time, measured from the date the premium payment is credited to the Contract.  The surrender charge percentages are shown below.

Premium Years since payment of the premium	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9+
Charge (%)	8	8	7	6	5	4	3	2	0

Each premium payment has its own surrender charge period.  When you make a withdrawal, we assume that the oldest premium payment is being withdrawn first so that the lowest surrender charge is deducted from the amount withdrawn.  After eight (8) complete Premium Years from the date you make a premium payment, no surrender charge will be assessed if you withdraw or surrender that premium payment.  The total surrender charge at a given time will be the sum of the surrender charges applicable to each premium that has been paid.

Subject to certain restrictions, the first withdrawal up to 10% of the Contract Value per Contract Year will not be subject to a surrender charge.  (See "SURRENDER CHARGE")

Annual Administration Fee.  We will deduct an annual administration fee of $30 from the Contract Value for administrative expenses at the beginning of each Contract Year.  We will waive this fee for Contracts with Contract Values of $50,000 or more.  (See "ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGES")

Transfer Processing Fee.  The first six transfers of amounts in the Subaccounts and the Fixed Account each Contract Year are free.  We assess a $25 transfer processing fee for each additional transfer during a Contract Year.  (See "TRANSFER PROCESSING FEE")

Asset-Based Administration Charge.  We deduct a daily asset-based administration charge for expenses we incur in administration of the Contract.  Prior to the Maturity Date, we deduct the charge from the assets of the Variable Account at an annual rate of 0.15%.  (See "ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGES")

Mortality and Expense Risk Charge.  We deduct a daily mortality and expense risk charge to compensate us for assuming certain mortality and expense risks.  Prior to the Maturity Date, we deduct this charge from the assets of the Variable Account at an annual rate of 1.25%.  (See “MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE”)

Monthly Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Expense Charge.  If a Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option other than the base provision is selected, there is an additional charge.  The amount of this charge varies depending on the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option you have elected, as follows:

· Base Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option: no additional charge

5

· Annual Ratchet Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option: A Monthly charge of 0.01665% of the Variable Account Value is deducted from the Variable Account Value on the Monthly Anniversary Date.  This charge equals 0.20% of the Variable Account Value on an annualized basis.

· Enhanced Combination Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option:  A monthly charge of 0.02912% of Variable Account Value is deducted from the Variable Account Value on the Monthly Anniversary Date.  This charge equals 0.35% of Variable Account Value on an annualized basis.  (See "MONTHLY GUARANTEED MINIMUM DEATH BENEFIT EXPENSE CHARGE")

Five PlusSM Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit.The monthly charge for the benefit is guaranteed not to exceed 0.10% multiplied by the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance.  The current monthly charge for FIVE PlusSM Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit Riders elected on and after January 1, 2009 and for Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit Riders elected before January 1, 2009 that have stepped-up since January 1, 2009 is 0.079% multiplied by the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance.

Premium Taxes.  If state or other premium taxes are applicable to a Contract, we will deduct them either upon surrender or when we apply the Proceeds to a payment option.  (See "PREMIUM TAXES")

Investment Advisory Fees and Other Expenses of the Funds.  The Funds deduct investment advisory fees on a daily basis and incur other expenses.  The value of the net assets of each Subaccount already reflects the investment advisory fees and other expenses incurred by the corresponding Fund in which the Subaccount invests.  This means that these charges are deducted before we calculate Subaccount Values.  Expenses of the Funds are not fixed or specified in the Contract and actual expenses may vary.  See the prospectuses for the Funds for specific information about these fees. (See “INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER EXPENSES OF THE FUNDS")

For information concerning compensation paid for the sale of Contracts, see “SALE OF THE CONTRACTS.”

ANNUITY PROVISIONS

Maturity Date.  On the Maturity Date, we will apply the Proceeds to the payment option you choose.  If you choose a Life Payment Option, the amount of Proceeds will be the full Contract Value.  If you elect a payment option other than a Life Payment Option or if you elect to receive a lump sum payment, we will apply the Cash Surrender Value.  (See “PAYMENT OPTIONS")

Payment Options.  The payment options are:

· Interest Payments (Non-Life Payment Option)

· Installments of a Specified Amount (Non-Life Payment Option)

· Installments for a Specified Period (Non-Life Payment Option)

· Life Income (Life Payment Option)

· Joint and Survivor Income (Life Payment Option)

Payments under these options do not vary based on Variable Account performance.  (See “PAYMENT OPTIONS")

FEDERAL TAX STATUS

Under existing tax law there generally should be no federal income tax on increases in the Contract Value until a distribution under the Contract occurs.  A distribution includes an actual distribution of funds such as a surrender or annuity payment.  However, a distribution also includes a pledge or assignment.  Generally, all or part of any distribution is taxable as ordinary income.  In addition, a penalty tax may apply to certain distributions made prior to the Owner reaching age 59½.  Special tax rules apply to Qualified Contracts, and distributions from certain Qualified Contracts may be subject to restrictions.  Governing federal tax statutes may be amended, revoked, or replaced by new legislation.  Changes in interpretation of these statutes may also occur.  We encourage you to consult your own tax adviser before making a purchase of the Contract.  (See "FEDERAL TAX STATUS")

FEE TABLE

The following tables describe the fees and expenses that you will pay when buying, owning, and surrendering the Contract. The first table describes the fees and charges that you will pay at the time that you buy the Contract, partially or fully surrender the Contract, or transfer amounts between the Subaccounts and/or the Fixed Account.  State premium taxes may also be deducted.

OWNER TRANSACTION EXPENSES

Sales Load on Premium Payments	None
Maximum Surrender Charge (as a % of each premium payment withdrawn or Annuitized under a Non-Life Payment Option1)	8%
Transfer Processing Fee	No fee for the first 6 transfers in a Contract Year; $25 for each additional transfer during a Contract Year

 1 We do not deduct a charge for sales expenses from premiums at the time they are paid.  However, we may deduct a surrender charge when a premium is withdrawn upon a surrender or partial surrender or applied to certain annuity options during the first eight years following the payment of that premium.  The surrender charge is calculated as a percentage of the premium payment being withdrawn or annuitized during the applicable Premium Year.  The amount of the surrender charge decreases over time, measured from the date the premium payment is credited to the Contract. The surrender charge percentages are shown below.

Premium Years Since Payment of Premium	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9+
Charge (%)	8	8	7	6	5	4	3	2	0

The next table describes the fees and expenses that you will pay periodically during the time that you own the Contract, not including Portfolio fees and expenses.  This table also includes the charges you would pay if you added an enhanced death benefit option to your Contract.

PERIODIC CHARGES OTHER THAN PORTFOLIO EXPENSES

Annual Administration Fee	$30 per Contract Year2
Loan Interest Charge	5.00%3
Variable Account Annual Expenses (as a % of average annual Variable Account Value during the accumulation period)

3 The maximum guaranteed net cost of loans (available under section 403(b) TSA Qualified Contract) is 5% annually.  The net cost of a loan is the difference between the loan interest charged (8%) and the amount credited to the loan account (3%). 

4 The current charge for the FIVE PlusSM Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit is 0.079% multiplied by the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance (assessed monthly).  However, if you elected the FIVE PlusSM Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit before January 1, 2009 and your GWB has not stepped-up since January 1, 2009, your current monthly charge is 0.05% multiplied by the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance (assessed monthly).

Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses (total of all expenses that are deducted from Portfolio assets, including management fees, distribution or service fees (12b-1 fees), and other expenses-before any contractual waiver of fees and expenses)	0.29%	1.75%6

5 The portfolio expenses used to prepare this table were provided to Kansas City Life by the Fund(s) or their investment advisers.  The expenses shown are those incurred for the year ended December 31, 2013.  Current or future expenses may be greater or less than those shown.  If required by applicable law, Kansas City Life may deduct any redemption fees imposed by the Funds.

6 The table showing the range of expenses of the Portfolios takes into account the expenses of several fund asset allocation portfolios that are “fund of funds.”  A “fund of funds” portfolio typically allocates its assets, within predetermined percentage ranges, among certain other fund portfolios (each such portfolio an “acquired fund.”)  Each “fund of funds” has its own set of operating expenses, as does each of the portfolios in which it invests.  In determining the range of portfolio expenses, Kansas City Life took into account the information received from the Fund on the combined actual expenses for each of the “fund of funds” and the portfolios in which it invests.  See the Fund prospectuses for more information.

The following tables show the fees and expenses charged (after contractual waiver or reimbursement) by each Portfolio for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

ANNUAL PORTFOLIO OPERATING EXPENSES7

(expenses that are deducted from Portfolio assets, as a percentage of net assets of the Portfolio):

 7 These expenses are deducted directly from the assets of the Portfolios and therefore reduce their net asset value.  The investment adviser of each Fund or the Fund provided the information, and Kansas City Life has not independently verified it.  The expenses shown are those incurred for the year ended December 31, 2013.  Current or future expenses may be greater or less than those shown.  See the Portfolios' prospectuses for more complete information.

Such combined investment management fees are described further under "Management" in the fund's prospectus. Total annual fund operating expenses are not affected by such bundling.

EXAMPLE OF CHARGES

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.  The example shows the maximum costs of investing in the Contract, including Owner transaction expenses, the annual administration fee, Variable Account charges, the Enhanced Combination Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option (“GMDB”) charge, a monthly Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit (“GMWB”) charge of 0.10% multiplied by the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance, and highest annual portfolio operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013.  The example also shows the same maximum costs of investing in the Contract, but reflecting the lowest annual portfolio operating expenses.  Further, the example shows what your costs would be if you did not elect the optional Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit and the optional Enhanced Combination Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option.

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.

The example does not reflect transfer fees or premium taxes (which may range up to 3.5%, depending on the jurisdiction).

Please remember that the example is an illustration and does not represent past or future expenses.  Your actual expenses may be higher or lower than those shown.  Similarly, your rate of return may be more or less than the 5% assumed in the example.

The example above assumes that we assess no transfer charges or premium taxes.  The annual administration fee is $30.00 for Contracts with a Contract Value less than $50,000 at the beginning of the Contract Year.  There is no administration fee for Contracts with a Contract Value greater than or equal to $50,000 at the beginning of the Contract Year.  As of 12/31/13, the average Contract Value is equal to $107,227.38 with an average administration fee equal to $11.78.  This translates the annual administrative fee into a 0.118% charge on a $10,000 investment for the purposes of the example.

You should not consider the assumed expenses in the example to represent past or future expenses.  Actual expenses may be greater or less than those shown.  The assumed 5% annual rate of return is hypothetical and you should not view it as a representation of past or future annual returns.  Actual returns may be greater or less than the assumed amount.

The various Funds themselves or their investment advisers provided the expense information regarding the Funds.  The Funds and their investment advisers are not affiliated with us.  While we have no reason to doubt the accuracy of these figures provided by these non-affiliated Funds, we have not independently verified the figures.

CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Condensed financial information containing the accumulation unit value listing appears at the end of this Prospectus.

KANSAS CITY LIFE, THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT AND THE FUNDS

KANSAS CITY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

Kansas City Life Insurance Company is a stock life insurance company, which was organized under the laws of the State of Missouri on May 1, 1895.  Kansas City Life is currently licensed to transact life insurance business in 48 states and the District of Columbia.

We are regulated by the Department of Insurance of the State of Missouri as well as by the insurance departments of all other states and jurisdictions in which we do business.  We submit annual statements on our operations and finances to insurance officials in such states and jurisdictions.  We also file the forms for the Contract described in this Prospectus with insurance officials in each state and jurisdiction in which Contracts are sold.

KANSAS CITY LIFE VARIABLE ANNUITY SEPARATE ACCOUNT

We established the Variable Account as a separate investment account under Missouri law on January 23, 1995.  This Variable Account supports the Contracts and may be used to support other variable annuity insurance contracts and for other purposes as permitted by law.  The Variable Account is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) and is a “separate account” within the meaning of the federal securities laws.  We have established other separate investment accounts that may also be registered with the SEC.

The Variable Account is divided into Subaccounts.  The Subaccounts available under the Contract invest in shares of corresponding Fund Portfolios.  The Variable Account may include other Subaccounts not available under the Contracts and not otherwise discussed in this Prospectus.  We own the assets in the Variable Account.

We apply income, gains and losses of a Subaccount (realized or unrealized) without regard to any other income, gains or losses of Kansas City Life or any other separate account.  We cannot use Variable Account assets (reserves and other contract liabilities) to cover liabilities arising out of any other business we conduct.  We are obligated to pay all benefits provided under the Contracts.

THE FUNDS

Each of the Funds is registered with the SEC as a diversified open-end management investment company under the 1940 Act.  However, the SEC does not supervise their management, investment practices or policies.  Each Fund is a series fund-type mutual fund made up of the Portfolios and other series that are not available under the Contracts.  The investment objectives of each of the Portfolios are described below.

Certain Subaccounts invest in Portfolios that have similar investment objectives and/or policies.  Therefore, before choosing Subaccounts, carefully read the individual prospectuses for the Funds along with this Prospectus.

The investment objectives and policies of certain Portfolios are similar to the investment objectives and policies of other funds that may be managed by the same investment adviser or manager.  The investment results of the Portfolios, however, may be higher or lower than the results of such other funds.  There can be no assurance that the investment results of any of the Portfolios will be comparable to the investment results of any other funds, even if the other fund has the same investment adviser or manager.

Certain Portfolios may employ hedging strategies to provide for downside protection during a sharp decline in the equity markets.  The cost of those hedging strategies could limit the upside participation by such Portfolios in rising equity markets relative to other Portfolios.  Please consult your financial professional.

Not all Funds may be available in all states.

Dreyfus Variable Investment Fund

Appreciation Portfolio – Initial Shares (Manager: The Dreyfus Corporation; Sub-Investment Advisor: Fayez Sarofim & Co.).  The Fund seeks long-term capital growth consistent with the preservation of capital. Its secondary goal is current income. To pursue its goals, the Fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowing for investment, in common stocks. The Fund focuses on “blue chip” companies with total market capitalizations of more than $5 billion at the time of purchase, including multinational companies. These are established companies that have demonstrated sustained patterns of profitability, strong balance sheets, an expanding global presence and the potential to achieve predictable, above-average earnings growth. In choosing stocks, the Fund first identifies economic sectors it believes will expand over the next three to five years or longer. Using fundamental analysis, the Fund then seeks companies within these sectors that have proven track records and dominant positions in their industries. The Fund also may invest in companies which it considers undervalued in terms of earnings, assets or growth prospects. The Fund employs a “buy-and-hold” investment strategy, which generally has resulted in an annual portfolio turnover of below 15%. A low portfolio turnover rate helps reduce the fund’s trading costs and minimizes tax liability by limiting the distribution of capital gains.

Opportunistic Small Cap Portfolio – Initial Shares (Manager: The Dreyfus Corporation).  The Fund seeks capital growth. To pursue its goal, the Fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowing for investment purposes, in the stocks of small-cap companies. The fund considers small cap companies to be those companies with market capitalizations that fall within the range of the companies in the Russell 2000® Index at the time of purchase. Stocks are selected for the fund's portfolio based primarily on bottom-up fundamental analysis. The fund's portfolio managers use a disciplined investment process that relies, in general, on proprietary fundamental research and valuation. Generally, elements of the process include analysis of mid-cycle business prospects, estimation of the intrinsic value of the company and the identification of a revaluation catalyst. In general, the fund seeks exposure to securities and sectors that the fund's portfolio managers perceive to be attractive from a valuation and fundamental standpoint.

Dreyfus Stock Index Fund, Inc. – Initial Shares (Manager: The Dreyfus Corporation).The Fund seeks to match the total return of the Standard & Poor’s® 500 Composite Stock Price Index. To pursue its goal, the Fund generally is fully invested in stocks included in the S&P 500® Index and in futures whose performance is tied to the index. The Fund generally invests in all 500 stocks in the S&P 500 Index in proportion to their weighting in the index. The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index of 500 common stocks chosen to reflect the industries of the U.S. economy and is often considered a proxy for the stock market in general. S&P weights each company’s stock in the index by its market capitalization, adjusted by the number of available float shares divided by the company’s total shares outstanding, which means larger companies with more available float shares have greater representation in the index than smaller ones. The Fund attempts to have a correlation between its performance and that of the S&P 500 Index of at least .95 before expenses. A correlation of 1.00 would mean that the Fund and the index were perfectly correlated. "Standard & Poor's®," "S&P®," "Standard & Poor's® 500," and "S&P 500®" are trademarks of Standard & Poor's Financial Services LLC and have been licensed for use by the fund. The fund is not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by Standard & Poor's and Standard and Poor's makes no representation regarding the advisability of investing in the fund.

The Dreyfus Socially Responsible Growth Fund, Inc. – Initial Shares (Manager: The Dreyfus Corporation). The Fund seeks to provide capital growth, with current income as a secondary goal. To pursue its goals, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in the common stocks of companies that, in the opinion of the Fund’s management, meet traditional investment standards and conduct their business in a manner that contributes to the enhancement of the quality of life in America. The Fund’s investment strategy combines a disciplined investment process that consists of computer modeling techniques, fundamental analysis and risk management with a social investment process. In selecting stocks, the portfolio manager begins by using computer models to identify and rank stocks within an industry or sector, based on several characteristics, including value, growth and financial profile. Next, based on fundamental analysis, the portfolio manager designates the most attractive of the higher ranked securities as potential purchase candidates, drawing on a variety of sources, including company management and internal as well as Wall Street research. The portfolio manager then evaluates each stock to determine whether the company enhances the quality of life in America by considering its

17

record in the areas of protection and improvement of the environment and the proper use of our natural resources, occupational health and safety, consumer protection and product purity and equal employment opportunity. The portfolio manager then further examines the companies determined to be eligible for purchase, by industry or sector, and selects investments from those companies the portfolio manager considers to be the most attractive based on financial considerations.

There is no assurance that the Funds will achieve their stated objectives and policies.

See the current prospectus for each Fund that accompanies this Prospectus as well as the current Statement of Additional Information for each Fund.  These important documents contain more detailed information regarding all aspects of the Funds.  Please read the prospectuses for the Funds carefully before making any decision concerning the allocation of premium payments or transfers among the Subaccounts.  There is no assurance that the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount will be able to maintain a stable net asset value per share.  You should know that during extended periods of low interest rates, and partly as a result of insurance charges, the yields of the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount may also become extremely low and possibly negative.

We cannot guarantee that each Fund or Portfolio will always be available for the Contracts, but in the event that a Fund or Portfolio is not available, we will take reasonable steps to secure the availability of a comparable fund.  Shares of each Portfolio are purchased and redeemed at net asset value, without a sales charge.

We select the Funds offered through this Contract based on several criteria, including asset class coverage, the strength of the adviser’s or sub-adviser’s reputation and tenure, brand recognition, performance, and the capability and qualification of each investment firm.  Another factor we may consider during the selection process is whether the Fund, its adviser, its sub-adviser(s), or an affiliate will make payments to us or our affiliates.  We review the Funds periodically and may remove a Fund or limit its availability to new premiums and/or transfers of Variable Account Value if we determine that the Fund no longer meets one or more of the selection criteria, and/or if the Fund has not attracted significant allocations from Owners.

20

We do not provide any investment advice and do not recommend or endorse any particular Fund.  You bear the risk of any decline in the Variable Account Value of your Contract resulting from the performance of the Funds you have chosen.

We (or our affiliates) may receive payments from a Fund’s investment adviser (or its affiliates).  These payments may be used for any corporate purpose, including payment of expenses that Kansas City Life and/or its affiliates incur in promoting, marketing, and administering the Contracts and, in its role as an intermediary, the Funds.  Kansas City Life and its affiliates may profit from these payments.  These payments may be derived, in whole or in part, from the advisory fee deducted from Fund assets.  Owners, through their indirect investment in the Funds, bear the costs of these advisory fees. (See the Funds’ prospectuses for more information)  This compensation is not reflected in fees and expenses listed in the fee table set forth in each Fund's prospectus.  The amount of this compensation is generally based upon a percentage of the assets of the Fund attributable to the Contracts and other contracts we issue.  These percentages differ and some advisers (or affiliates) may pay us (or our affiliates) more than others.  Currently, these percentages range from 0.15% to 0.25%.

Additionally, an investment adviser or sub-adviser of a Fund or its affiliates may provide Kansas City Life with wholesaling services that assist in the distribution of the Contracts and may pay Kansas City Life and/or certain of our affiliates amounts to participate in sales meetings.  These amounts may be significant and may provide the adviser or sub-adviser (or their affiliate) with increased access to persons involved in the distribution of the Contracts.

Certain Funds have adopted a Distribution Plan under Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act.  The Distribution Plan is described in more detail in the underlying Fund’s prospectus.  (See “FEE TABLE – ANNUAL PORTFOLIO OPERATING EXPENSES” and “SALE OF THE CONTRACTS”)  The payments are deducted from assets of the Funds and are paid to our distributor, Sunset Financial Services, Inc. (“Sunset Financial”).  These payments decrease the Fund’s investment return.

We make certain payments to Sunset Financial Services, Inc., principal underwriter for the Contracts.  (See “SALE OF THE CONTRACTS”)

RESOLVING MATERIAL CONFLICTS

The Funds presently serve as the investment medium for the Contracts.  In addition, the Funds are available to registered separate accounts of other insurance companies offering variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts.

We do not currently foresee any disadvantages to you resulting from the Funds selling shares to fund products other than the Contracts.  However, there is a possibility that a material conflict of interest may arise between Contract Owners and the owners of variable contracts issued by other companies whose values are allocated to one of the Funds.  Shares of some of the Funds may also be sold to certain qualified pension and retirement plans qualifying under section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”).  As a result, there is a possibility that a material conflict may arise between the interests of Owners or owners of other contracts (including contracts issued by other companies), and such retirement plans or participants in such retirement plans.  In the event of a material conflict, we will take any necessary steps, including removing the Variable Account from that Fund, to resolve the matter.  The Board of Directors of each Fund will monitor events in order to identify any material conflicts that may arise and determine what action, if any, should be taken in response to those events or conflicts.  See the accompanying prospectuses of the Funds for more information.

ADDITION, DELETION OR SUBSTITUTION OF INVESTMENTS

Subject to applicable law, we may make additions to, deletions from, or substitutions for the shares that are held in the Variable Account or that the Variable Account may purchase.  If the shares of a Portfolio are no longer available for investment, or for any other reason in our sole discretion we decide that further investment in any Portfolio should become inappropriate in view of the purposes of the Variable Account, we may redeem the shares, if any, of that Portfolio and substitute shares of another registered open-end management investment company.  The substituted fund may have different fees and expenses.  Substitutions may be made with respect to existing investments or the investment of future premiums or both.  We will not substitute any shares attributable to a Contract's interest in a Subaccount of the Variable Account without notice and prior approval of the SEC and state insurance authorities, to the extent required by applicable law.

Subject to applicable law and any required SEC approval, we may establish new Subaccounts or eliminate one or more Subaccounts if marketing needs, tax considerations or investment conditions warrants or for any reason in our sole discretion.  We will determine on what basis we might make any new Subaccounts available to existing Contract Owners.  We may close Subaccounts to allocation of premiums or Contract Value, or both, at any time in our sole discretion.

21

If we make any of these substitutions or changes we may, by appropriate endorsement, change the Contract to reflect the substitution or change.  If we decide it is in the best interests of Contract Owners (subject to any approvals that may be required under applicable law), we may take the following actions with regard to the Variable Account:

· operate the Variable Account as a management investment company under the 1940 Act;

· de-register it under that Act if registration is no longer required;

· combine it with other Kansas City Life separate accounts; or

· make any changes required by the 1940 Act.

VOTING RIGHTS

We are the legal owner of shares held by the Subaccounts and we have the right to vote on all matters submitted to shareholders of the Funds.  As required by law, we will vote shares held in the Subaccounts in accordance with instructions received from Owners with Contract Value in the Subaccounts.  We may be permitted to vote shares of the Funds in our own right if the applicable federal securities laws, regulations or interpretations of those laws or regulations change.

We will solicit voting instructions from you, as required by applicable law or regulation, before any Fund shareholder meeting.  Your votes will be calculated separately for each Subaccount of the Variable Account, and may include fractional shares.  We will determine the number of votes attributable to a Subaccount by applying your percentage interest, if any, in a particular Subaccount to the total number of votes attributable to that Subaccount.  The number of votes for which you may give instructions will be determined as of the date established by the Fund for determining shareholders eligible to vote.  We will vote shares held by a Subaccount for which we have no instructions and any shares held in our General Account in the same proportion as those shares for which we do receive voting instructions.  This means that a small number of Owners may control the outcome of the vote.

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTRACT

The Contract is a variable annuity that provides accumulation of Variable Account Value based on the performance of Subaccounts within the Kansas City Life Variable Annuity Separate Account.  You may also allocate a portion of your premiums to our Fixed Account.  We provide options such as the Dollar Cost Averaging Plan, the Portfolio Rebalancing Plan and the Systematic Partial Surrender Plan.  The Contract offers only fixed annuity payment options.

Contracts issued in your state may provide different features and benefits from those described in this Prospectus.  Differences could include the length of the free-look period and the calculation of the free-look refund, maturity date and annuitization, and under payments or over payments due to misstatement of age or sex.  In addition, optional riders may not be available in all states.  See your Contract for specific variations.  Your registered representative may also provide you with additional information about state variations.

PURCHASING A CONTRACT

The maximum Issue Age for which we issue a Contract is 80.  However, for Qualified Contracts with an Issue Age of 70½ or greater, tax laws may require that distributions begin immediately.  We may issue Contracts above the maximum Issue Age under certain circumstances.  We may issue Contracts in connection with retirement plans that may or may not qualify for special federal tax treatment under the Internal Revenue Code.

The Annual Ratchet and Enhanced Combination Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Options are only available at issue of the Contract.  The Annual Ratchet option is available for Annuitants with Issue Ages of 75 and below and the Enhanced Combination option is only available for Annuitants with Issue Ages of 70 and below.  The Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Options are offered only in the states where we have received regulatory approval.

The minimum initial premium that we accept is a single premium of $10,000.  You may pay additional premium payments at any time while the Annuitant is alive and before the Maturity Date.  These payments must be at least $50.  We may limit the number and amount of additional premium payments (where permitted).

REPLACEMENT OF CONTRACTS

It may not be in your best interest to surrender, lapse, change, or borrow from existing life insurance or annuity contracts in connection with the purchase of a Contract.  You should replace your existing insurance only when you determine that the Contract is better for you.  The charges and benefits of your existing insurance may be different from a Contract

22

purchased from us.  You may have to pay a surrender charge on your existing insurance, and the Contract will impose a new surrender charge period.

You should talk to your financial professional or tax adviser to make sure the exchange will be tax-free.  If you surrender your existing contract for cash and then buy the Contract, you may have to pay a tax, including possibly a penalty tax, on the surrender.  Also, because we will not issue the Contract until we have received an initial premium from your existing insurance company, the issuance of the Contract may be delayed.

FREE-LOOK PERIOD

You may cancel your Contract for a refund during your "free-look" period.  The free look period applies for the 10 days after you receive the Contract.  When we receive the returned Contract at our Home Office, we will cancel the Contract.  The amount that we will refund will vary according to state requirements.  Most states allow us to refund Contract Value.  In those states, we will return an amount equal to the Contract Value.  We will determine the amount of the Contract Value as of the earlier of:

· the date the returned Contract is received by us at our Home Office; or

· the date the returned Contract is received by the registered representative who sold you the Contract.

A few states require a return of the greater of premium payments or Contract Value.  In these states, we will refund the greater of:

· the premiums paid under the Contract; and

· the Contract Value as of the earlier of:

· the date the returned Contract is received by us at our Home Office; or

· the date the returned Contract is received by the registered representative who sold you the Contract.

Some states permit only the return of premiums even if this amount is less than what we would have returned otherwise.  In all states, we will also refund the $30 annual administration fee, if it was deducted prior to the return of the Contract.

ALLOCATION OF PREMIUMS

At the time of application, you select how we will allocate premiums among the Subaccounts and the Fixed Account.  You can change the allocation percentages at any time by sending Written Notice to us.  You may also change your allocation by telephone, facsimile, and electronic mail if you have provided proper authorization.  (See “TELEPHONE, FACSIMILE, ELECTRONIC MAIL, AND INTERNET AUTHORIZATIONS”)

Our procedures for allocation of premiums during the free-look period vary by state, based on the amount that each state requires to be refunded if the Contract is returned within the free-look period:

· for Contracts sold to residents of states that allow refund of Contract Value, we will immediately allocate premiums according to the allocation you requested; and

· for Contracts sold as an Individual Retirement Annuity or to residents of states that require either the refund of premiums paid or the refund of the greater of Contract Value or premiums paid, we will allocate premiums received during a 15-day period following the Contract Date to the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount for that 15-day period.  At the end of this 15-day period, we will allocate the amount in the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount according to your allocation instructions.

We will allocate the initial premium within two business days of when we receive the premium at our Home Office.  In order to allocate the premium in this time frame, you must properly complete the application and it must include all the information necessary to process it, including payment of the initial premium.  If the application is not properly completed, we will retain the premium for up to five business days while we attempt to complete the application.  If the application is not complete at the end of the 5-day period, we will inform you of the reason for the delay.  We will also return the initial premium immediately, unless you specifically consent to our keeping the premium until the application is complete.  Once the application is complete, we will allocate the initial premium within two business days.  There may be delays in our receipt of application that are outside of our control because of the failure of the registered representative to forward the application to us promptly, because the application was sent to the wrong address, or because of delays in determining that the Contract is suitable for you.  Any such delays will affect when your Contract is issued and when your premium is allocated among the Subaccounts and/or the Fixed Account.

23

We will allocate subsequent premiums at the end of the Valuation Period in which we receive the premium payment at our Home Office.  Premiums received at our Home Office before the New York Stock Exchange closes are priced using the Subaccount accumulation unit value determined at the close of that regular business session of the New York Stock Exchange (usually 3:00 p.m. Central Time).  If we receive a premium payment after the New York Stock Exchange closes, we will process the order using the Subaccount accumulation unit value determined at the close of the next regular session of the New York Stock Exchange.  We will credit amounts to the Subaccounts only on a Valuation Day, that is, on a date the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading.

The values of the Subaccounts will vary with their investment experience, so that you bear the entire investment risk with respect to the Variable Account Value.  You should periodically review your premium allocation schedule in light of market conditions and your overall financial objectives.

If mandated under applicable law, we may be required to reject a premium payment.  We may also be required to provide additional information about you or your account to government regulators.  In addition, we may be required to block an Owner’s account and thereby refuse to pay any request for transfers, surrenders, loans, annuity payments, or death benefits, until instructions are received from the appropriate regulator.

DETERMINATION OF CONTRACT VALUE

The Contract Value is the sum of the Variable Account Value and the Fixed Account Value.

VARIABLE ACCOUNT VALUE

The Variable Account Value reflects the following:

· the investment experience of the selected Subaccounts;

· premiums paid;

· surrenders;

· transfers;

· charges assessed in connection with the Contract;

· Contract loan balance; and

· bonuses paid on the Monthly Anniversary Date.

There are two bonuses that will be credited to the Variable Account Value.  The first bonus is credited to Contracts on each Monthly Anniversary Date where the Contract Value is greater than or equal to $100,000 on that date.  The monthly amount of this bonus equals 0.0125% of the Variable Account Value, which equals 0.15% on an annualized basis.

The second bonus is credited to all Contracts, regardless of size.  After the eighth Contract Year, this bonus will be credited each Monthly Anniversary Date to the Variable Account Value.  The amount of this bonus equals 0.01665% of the Variable Account Value, which equals 0.20% on an annualized basis.

Both of the bonuses are guaranteed.  We will not attempt to recapture the bonus at any time, including upon surrender, death or election of an annuity option.  Each of the bonuses, if applicable, is paid on the Variable Account Value on the Monthly Anniversary Date.  Please note that because a bonus will increase Variable Account Value, charges that are based on a percentage of Variable Account Value also will increase.

There is no guaranteed minimum Variable Account Value.  Since a Contract's Variable Account Value on any future date depends upon a number of factors, it cannot be predetermined.

Calculation of Variable Account Value.  We calculate the Variable Account Value on each Valuation Date.  Its value will be the sum of the values attributable to the Contract in each of the Subaccounts.  We will determine the amount for each Subaccount by multiplying the Subaccount's unit value on the Valuation Date by the number of Subaccount accumulation units allocated to the Contract.  The unit value of a Subaccount may increase, decrease, or remain the same.

Determination of Number of Accumulation Units.  We will convert any amounts allocated to a Subaccount into accumulation units of that Subaccount.  We determine the number of accumulation units credited to the Contract by dividing the dollar amount allocated to the Subaccount by the unit value for that Subaccount at the end of the Valuation Period during which the amount was allocated.

24

We will increase the number of accumulation units in any Subaccount at the end of the Valuation Period by:

· any premiums allocated to the Subaccount during the current Valuation Period; and

· transfers to the Subaccount from another Subaccount or from the Fixed Account during the current Valuation Period; and

· bonuses credited on the Monthly Anniversary Date.

We will decrease the number of accumulation units in any Subaccount at the end of the Valuation Period by:

· amounts transferred from the Subaccount to another Subaccount or the Fixed Account including any applicable transfer fee;

· amounts surrendered (including applicable charges) during the current Valuation Period; and

· the pro rata portion of the monthly Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit charge assessed on the Monthly Anniversary Day.

The number of units in any Subaccount will also be reduced at the beginning of each Contract Year by a pro rata share of the $30 annual administration fee.

Net Investment Factor.  We will calculate a net investment factor on each Valuation Day.  A Subaccount's net investment factor measures the investment performance of an accumulation unit in that Subaccount during a Valuation Period.  The formula for the net investment factor equals:

(X/Y) – Z

where "X" equals the sum of:

· the net asset value per accumulation unit held in the Subaccount at the end of the current Valuation Day; plus

· the per accumulation unit amount of any dividend or capital gain distribution on shares held in the Subaccount during the current Valuation Day; less

· the per accumulation unit amount of any capital loss distribution on shares held in the Subaccount during the current Valuation Day; less

· the per accumulation unit amount of any taxes or any amount set aside during the Valuation Day as a reserve for taxes.

"Y" equals the net asset value per accumulation unit held in the Subaccount as of the end of the immediately preceding Valuation Day; and

"Z" equals the charges we deduct from the Subaccount on a daily basis.  These charges equal the sum of the asset-based administration charge and the mortality and expense risk charge.  The asset-based administration charge equals 0.15% on an annual basis.  The mortality and expense risk charge equals 1.25% on an annual basis.

Determination of Unit Value.  We arbitrarily set the value of an accumulation unit for each of the Subaccounts at $10 when the first investments were bought.  The accumulation unit value for each subsequent Valuation Period is equal to:

A x B

"A" is equal to the Subaccount's accumulation unit value for the end of the immediately preceding Valuation Day; and

"B" is equal to the net investment factor for the current Valuation Day.

This accumulation unit value may increase or decrease from day to day based on investment results.

TRANSFER PRIVILEGE

After the free-look period and before the Maturity Date, you may transfer amounts among the Subaccounts and the Fixed Account.  Transfers are subject to the following restrictions:

· the minimum transfer amount is the lesser of $250 or the entire amount in that Subaccount or the Fixed Account;

· we will treat a transfer request that would reduce the amount in a Subaccount or the Fixed Account below $250 as a transfer request for the entire amount in that Subaccount or the Fixed Account;

25

· we currently have no limit on the number of transfers that you can make between Subaccounts or to the Fixed Account.  However, you can make only one transfer from the Fixed Account each Contract Year.  (See "TRANSFERS FROM FIXED ACCOUNT" for restrictions); and

· we have the right, where permitted, to suspend or modify this transfer privilege at any time.  Any suspension or modification of this privilege will be communicated in writing.

We will make a transfer on the date that we receive Written Notice requesting the transfer.  You may also make transfers by telephone, facsimile and electronic mail if you have provided proper authorization, unless, in accordance with our policies and procedures regarding frequent transfers among Subaccounts, we require you to provide us with a Written Request for transfers.  (See "TELEPHONE, FACSIMILE, ELECTRONIC MAIL, AND INTERNET AUTHORIZATIONS")  Transfer requests made in writing, by facsimile, or by electronic mail must be received, and transfer requests made by telephone must be completed, before 3:00 p.m. Central Time to receive same-day pricing of the transaction.  Transfer requests received (or completed) before the New York Stock Exchange closes are priced using the Subaccount accumulation unit value determined at the close of that regular business session of the New York Stock Exchange (usually 3:00 p.m. Central Time).  If we receive a transfer request after the New York Stock Exchange closes, we will process the order using the Subaccount accumulation unit value determined at the close of the next regular business session of the New York Stock Exchange.

The first six transfers during each Contract Year are free.  We will charge a $25 transfer processing fee for all transfers during a Contract Year in addition to the six free ones.  For the purpose of charging the fee, we will consider each request to be one transfer, regardless of the number of Subaccounts or the Fixed Account affected by that request.  We will deduct the transfer processing fee from the amount being transferred or from the remaining Contract Value, according to your instructions.

Frequent Transfers Among Subaccounts. Frequent requests from Owners to transfer Contract Value between Subaccounts may dilute the value of a Portfolio's shares if the frequent trading involves an attempt to take advantage of pricing inefficiencies created by a lag between a change in the value of the securities held by a Portfolio and the reflection of that change in the Portfolio's share price.  Frequent transfers may also increase brokerage and administrative costs of the Portfolios, and may interfere with the efficient management of a Portfolio, requiring it to maintain a high cash position and possibly result in lost investment opportunities and forced liquidations.  Accordingly, frequent transfers may adversely affect the long-term performance of the Portfolios, which, in turn, may adversely affect other Owners and persons with interests under the Contracts (e.g., Annuitants or Beneficiaries).

We have policies and procedures that attempt to detect and deter frequent transfer activity among Subaccounts.  Our procedures for detecting frequent transfer activity involve examining the number of transfers made by an Owner within given periods of time.  Currently, we monitor for 12 or more transfers in a Contract within a calendar year.  For purposes of applying the parameters used to detect frequent transfer activity, we will aggregate transfers made on the same Valuation Day under multiple contracts owned by the same Owner.  However, we do not aggregate transfers made pursuant to the Dollar Cost Averaging Plan and the Portfolio Rebalancing Plan.

If transfer activity violates our established parameters for detecting frequent transfers, we review those transfers to determine if, in our judgment, the transfers are potentially harmful frequent transfer activity.  If, in our sole opinion, a pattern of excessive transfers develops or a transfer is not in the best interests of one or more Owners, we either will suspend the transfer privilege or will apply limitations or modifications to transfers to or from one or more of the Subaccounts.  We will communicate to Owners in writing any suspension or limitation or modification of the transfer privilege.  Our policies and procedures specify the following as limitations that will be applied to deter excessive transfers:

· the requirement of a minimum time period between each transfer;

· not accepting a transfer request from a third party acting under authorization on behalf of more than one Owner;

· limiting the dollar amount that may be transferred between the Subaccounts by an Owner at any one time;

· implementing and administering redemption fees imposed by one or more of the Funds in the future; and

· requiring that a Written Request be provided to us at our Home Office, signed by an Owner.

The detection and deterrence of harmful transfer activity involves judgments that are inherently subjective, including our judgment as to what parameters to use to detect potentially harmful frequent transfer activity and what particular limitation of the five possible limitations described above to apply to deter excessive transfers when a particular instance of potentially harmful transfer activity is detected.  Our ability to detect and apply specific limitations to such transfer activity may be limited by operational and technological systems, as well as by our ability to predict strategies employed by Owners to avoid such detection.  We apply our procedures consistently to Owners without special arrangement, waiver or exception.  However, we may vary our procedures from Subaccount to Subaccount, and may be more restrictive with

26

regard to certain Subaccounts than others.  There is no assurance that we will prevent all transfer activity that may adversely affect Owners and other persons with interests in the Contracts.

In our sole discretion, we may at any time and without prior notice revise any procedures we follow as necessary:  to better detect and deter frequent, large, or short-term transfers that may adversely affect Owners and other persons with interests under the Contracts; to comply with state or federal regulatory requirements; or to impose additional or alternate restrictions (such as percentage limits on transfers) on Owners engaging in frequent transfer activity among the Subaccounts.  We also may not process a transfer request if the Subaccount affected by the transfer is unable to purchase or redeem shares of its corresponding Fund Portfolio because of actions taken or limitations imposed by the Fund.

The Funds with Portfolios available as investment options under the Contract may have adopted their own policies and procedures with respect to frequent purchases and redemptions of their respective shares.  The prospectuses for the Funds describe any such policies and procedures, which may be more or less restrictive than the frequent trading policies and procedures of other Funds and the policies and procedures we have adopted to discourage frequent transfers among Subaccounts.  You should read the prospectuses of the Funds for more details on their ability to refuse or restrict purchases or redemptions of their shares.  You should be aware that we have entered into a written agreement, as required by SEC regulation, with each Fund or its principal underwriter that obligates us (1) to provide the Fund promptly upon request certain information about the trading activity of individual Owners, and (2) to execute instructions from the Fund to restrict or prohibit further purchases or transfers by specific Owners who violate the frequent trading policies established by the Fund.

Owners and other persons with interests under the Contracts also should be aware that the purchase and redemption orders received by the Funds generally are “omnibus” orders from other insurance companies or from intermediaries such as retirement plans.  The omnibus orders reflect the aggregation and netting of multiple orders from individual retirement plan participants and/or individual owners of variable insurance contracts.  The omnibus nature of these orders may limit a Fund's ability to apply its respective frequent trading policies and procedures.  We cannot guarantee that the Funds will not be harmed by transfer activity relating to the retirement plans and/or other insurance companies that may invest in the Funds.

In accordance with applicable law, we reserve the right to modify or terminate the transfer privilege at any time.  We also reserve the right to defer or restrict the transfer privilege at any time that we are unable to purchase or redeem shares of any of the Portfolios, including any refusal or restriction on purchases or redemptions of Portfolio shares as a result of a Fund's own policies and procedures on frequent purchase and redemption of Fund shares (even if an entire omnibus order is rejected because or frequent transfer activity of a single Owner).  You should read the Fund prospectuses for more details.

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING PLAN

The Dollar Cost Averaging Plan is an optional feature available with the Contract.  If you elect this plan, it enables you to automatically transfer amounts from the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount to other Subaccounts.  The goal of the Dollar Cost Averaging Plan is to make you less susceptible to market fluctuations by allocating on a regularly scheduled basis instead of allocating the total amount all at one time.  We do not guarantee that the Dollar Cost Averaging Plan will result in a gain or prevent a loss.

Transfers under this plan occur on a monthly basis for a period you choose, ranging from 3 to 36 months.  To participate in this plan you must transfer at least $250 from the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount each month.  You may allocate the required amounts to the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount through initial and subsequent premium payments or by transferring amounts into the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount from the other Subaccounts.  Restrictions apply to transfers from the Fixed Account.

You may elect this plan at the time of application by completing the authorization.  You may also elect it at any time after the Contract is issued by completing the election form.  Dollar cost averaging transfers will start on the next Monthly Anniversary Day following the date we receive your request or on the date you request.  We do not impose a charge for participating in this plan.

Once elected, we will process transfers from the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount monthly until:

· we have completed the number of designated transfers;

· the value of the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount is completely depleted; or

· you send us Written Notice instructing us to cancel the monthly transfers.

27

There is no transfer charge for participation in the Dollar Cost Averaging Plan and transfers made under the Dollar Cost Averaging Plan will not count toward the six free transfers allowed each Contract Year.  We have the right to cancel this feature at any time with notice to you.

PORTFOLIO REBALANCING PLAN

The Portfolio Rebalancing Plan is an optional feature available with the Contract.  Under this plan, we will redistribute the accumulated balance of each Subaccount to equal a specified percentage of the Variable Account Value.  We will do this on a quarterly basis at three-month intervals from the Monthly Anniversary Day on which the Portfolio Rebalancing Plan begins.  The purpose of the Portfolio Rebalancing Plan is to automatically diversify your portfolio mix.  The plan automatically adjusts your portfolio mix to be consistent with your current premium allocation instructions.  If you make a change to your premium allocation, we will also automatically change the allocation used for portfolio rebalancing to be consistent with the new premium allocation.  We do not impose a charge for participating in this plan.

The redistribution will not count as a transfer permitted under the Contract each Contract Year.  If you also have elected the Dollar Cost Averaging Plan and it has not been completed, the Portfolio Rebalancing Plan will start on the Monthly Anniversary Day the Dollar Cost Averaging Plan ends.  If the Contract Value is negative at the time portfolio rebalancing is scheduled, we will not complete the redistribution.

You may elect this plan at the time of application by completing the authorization.  You may also elect it at any time after the Contract is issued by completing the election form.  Portfolio rebalancing will terminate when:

· you request any transfer unless you authorize a new allocation; or

· the day we receive Written Notice instructing us to cancel the plan.

PARTIAL AND FULL CASH SURRENDERS

Partial Surrenders. You may surrender part of the Cash Surrender Value at any time before your death, the Annuitant’s death and the Maturity Date.  You may submit a Written Notice to the Home Office or provide notice by telephone if you have provided proper authorization to us.  (See “TELEPHONE, FACSIMILE, ELECTRONIC MAIL, AND INTERNET AUTHORIZATIONS”)  The minimum partial surrender requested must be at least $100.  We will surrender the amount requested from the Contract Value on the date we receive your Written Notice or notice by telephone for the surrender.  We will price a partial surrender request received in good order before the New York Stock Exchange closes using the Subaccount accumulation unit value determined at the close of that regular business session of the New York Stock Exchange (usually 3:00 p.m. Central Time).  For requests received in good order after the New York Stock Exchange closes, we will price such partial surrender request using the Subaccount accumulation unit value determined at the close of the next regular session of the New York Stock Exchange.  We will deduct any applicable surrender charge from the amount surrendered or from the remaining Contract Value, according to your instructions.  If you instruct us to deduct the surrender charge from the remaining Contract Value and the remaining Contract Value is insufficient to fully cover the surrender charge, we will deduct the unpaid portion of the surrender charge from the amount paid to you.  We will make the surrender from each Subaccount and the Fixed Account based on your instructions.  If the amount requested exceeds the Subaccount and/or Fixed Account Value, we will process the surrender for the amount available and then contact you for further instructions.

Subject to certain restrictions, we will not apply a surrender charge on the first partial surrender of up to 10% of the Contract Value per Contract Year.  (See “SURRENDER CHARGE”)

Systematic Partial Surrender Plan.  The Systematic Partial Surrender Plan enables you to authorize an automatic regular payment of a partial surrender amount.  If you wish to participate in the plan, you should instruct us to surrender a particular dollar amount from the Contract on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis.  The minimum payment under this plan is $100.  We will make the surrender from each Subaccount and the Fixed Account based on your instructions.  If the amount requested exceeds the Subaccount and/or Fixed Account Value, we will process the surrender for the amount available and then contact you for further instructions.

Subject to certain restrictions, we will not apply a surrender charge on the first amounts paid out under the Systematic Partial Surrender Plan of up to 10% of the Contract Value each Contract Year.  (See “SURRENDER CHARGE”)

You may discontinue participation in the Systematic Partial Surrender Plan at any time by sending us Written Notice.

28

Certain federal income tax consequences may apply to partial and systematic partial surrenders.  You should consult your tax adviser before requesting a partial or systematic partial surrender.  (See “FEDERAL TAX STATUS")

Full Surrender.  You may request a surrender of the Contract for its Cash Surrender Value at any time before the Annuitant’s death and before the Maturity Date.  The Cash Surrender Value will equal the Contract Value less:

· any applicable surrender charge;

· any loan balance;

· any premium taxes payable; and

· any withholding taxes.

We will determine the Cash Surrender Value on the date we receive Written Notice of surrender and the Contract.  We will price a surrender request received in good order before the New York Stock Exchange closes for normal trading using the Subaccount accumulation unit value determined at the close of that regular business session of the New York Stock Exchange (usually 3:00 p.m. Central Time).  For requests received in good order after the New York Stock Exchange closes, we will price such surrender request using the Subaccount accumulation unit value determined at the close of the next regular session of the New York Stock Exchange.

Subject to certain restrictions, we will not apply a surrender charge on up to 10% of the Contract Value when you surrender the Contract.  (See “SURRENDER CHARGE”)

Certain federal income tax consequences may apply to a surrender of the Contract.  You should consult your tax adviser before requesting a surrender.  (See "FEDERAL TAX STATUS")

Restrictions on Distributions from Certain Contracts.  Certain restrictions apply to surrenders and partial surrenders from Contracts used as funding vehicles for Internal Revenue Code section 403(b) retirement plans.  Section 403(b)(11) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, restricts the distribution under section 403(b) annuity contracts of:

· elective contributions made in years beginning after December 31, 1988;

· earnings on those contributions; and

· earnings in such years on amounts held as of the last year beginning before January 1, 1989.

Distributions of those amounts may only occur upon:

· the death of the employee;

· attainment of age 59½;

· severance from employment;

· disability; or

· financial hardship.

In addition, income attributable to elective contributions may not be distributed in the case of hardship.  Amounts attributable to non-elective contributions may be subject to distribution restrictions specified in the employer’s section 403(b) plan.

Pursuant to tax regulations, we generally are required to confirm, with your section 403(b) plan sponsor or otherwise, that surrenders you request from a section 403(b) contract comply with applicable tax requirements before we process your request.

CONTRACT TERMINATION

We may terminate the Contract and pay you the Cash Surrender Value if all of these events simultaneously exist prior to the Maturity Date:

· you have not paid premiums for at least two years;

· the Contract Value is less than $2,000; and

· total premiums paid under the Contract, less any partial surrenders, is less than $2,000.

29

We will mail a termination notice to you and to the holder of any assignment of record at least six months before we terminate the Contract.  We have the right to automatically terminate the Contract on the date specified in the notice unless we receive an additional premium payment before the termination date specified or the Contract Value has increased to the amount required due to positive investment performance.  This additional premium payment must be for at least the required minimum amount.

CONTRACT LOANS

If your Contract is a section 403(b) TSA Qualified Contract, you may have the option of taking a Contract loan at any time after the first Contract Year if permitted by your employer’s section 403(b) plan.  Pursuant to new tax regulations, we generally are required to confirm, with your section 403(b) plan sponsor or otherwise, that loans you request from a section 403(b) contract comply with applicable tax requirements before we process your request.  You may obtain a loan by submitting Written Notice.  The only security we require is an assignment of the Contract to us.  We allow only one loan per Contract Year.

We will show the current loan amount and any withdrawals for unpaid interest on your annual report.

Amount of Loan Available.  You may borrow up to the least of:

· $50,000, reduced by the excess (if any) of the highest outstanding loan balance during the one-year period ending on the day before the loan is made over the outstanding loan balance on the day loan is made;

· the greater of 50% of the Cash Surrender Value of the Contract or $10,000; or

· the Cash Surrender Value less any outstanding loans, determined as of the date of the loan.

At any time you make a new loan the sum of all prior loans, loan interest outstanding, and the current loan applied for may not exceed the applicable limit described above.  Each loan must be at least $2,500.

Loan Account.  When you take a loan, we will withdraw an amount equal to the loan from the Fixed Account and Variable Account and transfer this amount to the loan account.  The loan account is part of the Fixed Account.  If you do not specify allocation instructions in your loan application, we will withdraw the loan pro rata from all Subaccounts having values and from the Fixed Account.  Amounts transferred to the loan account do not participate in the investment experience of the Fixed Account and the Subaccounts from which they were withdrawn.

Interest Credited on Loaned Amount.  We will pay interest on amounts in the loan account at the minimum guaranteed effective annual interest rate of 3% per year.  We may apply different interest rates to the loan account than the Fixed Account.  Any interest we credit on loaned amounts will remain in the Fixed Account.

Loan Interest Charged.  On each Contract Anniversary, we will charge accrued interest on a Contract loan at the maximum rate of 8% per year.  We may establish a lower rate for any period during which the Contract loan is outstanding. Interest is payable at the end of each Contract Year and on the date the loan is repaid.

If we do not receive the loan interest payment by the Contract Anniversary, we will transfer the accrued loan interest from the Fixed Account and Subaccounts to the loan account on a pro rata basis.

Repayment of Loan. You must specifically identify any loan repayment as such in order to ensure that it will be applied correctly.  Each loan repayment will result in a transfer of an amount equal to the loan repayment from the loan account to the Fixed Account and/or Subaccounts.  We will use your current premium allocation schedule to allocate the loan repayment, unless you provide specific instructions to allocate the loan repayment differently.  Each loan repayment must be at least $25.

You must repay principal and interest in substantially equal monthly payments over a five-year period.  You are allowed a 31-day grace period from the installment due date.  If a monthly installment is not received within the 31-day grace period, under federal tax law you will be treated as having a deemed distribution of the entire amount of the outstanding principal, interest due, and any applicable charges under this Contract, including any surrender charge.  This deemed distribution may be subject to income and penalty tax under the Code.

Loan Balance.  Loan balance means all unpaid Contract loans and loan interest.  We will deduct any outstanding loan balance from the Contract Proceeds.  We will terminate your Contract if your total loan balance exceeds the Cash Surrender Value of the Contract.  We will mail notice to you at least 31 days before such termination.

Allowing a Contract to terminate under these circumstances could have adverse tax consequences and may adversely affect the treatment of the Contract under Internal Revenue Code section 403(b).

30

ERISA Plans.  If your section 403(b) TSA Qualified Contract is part of a plan subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), you should consult a qualified legal adviser about compliance with ERISA requirements prior to requesting a Contract loan.  Any loan under this Contract may also be subject to the rules of the plan it is part of. You are responsible for determining whether your plan is subject to, and complies with, ERISA and the Department of Labor regulations governing plan loans.

DEATH BENEFIT BEFORE MATURITY DATE

A death benefit will be paid at the death of either the Annuitant or the Owner of the Contract.  We will determine the amount of and pay the death benefit Proceeds on an individual Contract upon receipt at our Home Office of satisfactory proof of the Owner's or the Annuitant's death before the Maturity Date, plus written direction (from each eligible recipient of death benefit Proceeds) regarding how to pay the death benefit payment, and any other documents, forms and information we need.  Once a death benefit has been paid, the Contract is terminated.  If you are also the Annuitant, the death benefit Proceeds payable will be those payable on the death of the Annuitant.  However, if the Contract is issued with an Owner and an Annuitant who is not the same individual, the benefit will be paid at the first death.  If the Owner predeceases the Annuitant, the Cash Surrender Value of the Contract will be paid to the Beneficiary.  If the Annuitant predeceases the Owner, the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit, as described below, will be paid to the Beneficiary.

Calculation of the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit.  The Contract provides a Base Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option and also offers two enhanced Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Options that can be selected at issue for an additional charge.

The two options are:

· The Annual Ratchet Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option; and

· The Enhanced Combination Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option.

The issue requirements and the Monthly Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Charge will vary for each Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option as described below.  Any amount we pay in excess of your Contract Value is subject to our financial strength and claims-paying ability.

The death benefit options provide protection in the event of a market downturn.  However, there are additional costs associated with the enhanced Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefits.  Those costs can limit the Contract’s participation in rising equity markets.  Please consult your financial professional.

Base Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option

Under this option we guarantee that the death benefit will be the greater of:

· premiums paid, proportionately adjusted for partial surrenders, less any loan balance; or

· the Contract Value less any loan balance on the date we receive proof of the Annuitant's death.

There is no additional charge for the Base Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option.  This option is available at issue and at any time after.

Annual Ratchet Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option

Under this option we guarantee that the death benefit for ages 80 and below will be the greater of:

· the death benefit calculated under the Base Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option; or

· the highest Contract Value as of a Contract Anniversary during any point the Contract has been in effect on or before the Annuitant’s death.  Any loan balance will be deducted from such Contract Value and the Contract Value will also be proportionally adjusted for partial surrenders.

We guarantee that the death benefit for ages above 80 equal the greater of:

· the Contract Value at the time of death; or

· the death benefit calculated as described above for ages 80 and below plus any additional premiums paid.

31

If you elect the Annual Ratchet Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option, the monthly Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit charge will equal 0.01665% of Variable Account Value, which equals 0.20% of the Variable Account Value on an annualized basis.  This charge is deducted from the Variable Account Value every Monthly Anniversary Day.  (See “MONTHLY GUARANTEED MINIMUM DEATH BENEFIT EXPENSE CHARGE”)  This option is only available at issue of the Contract and is only available to Annuitants with Issue Ages of 75 or below.

Enhanced Combination Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option

Under this option we guarantee that the death benefit for ages 80 and below will be the greatest of:

· the death benefit calculated under the Base Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option; or

· premiums paid, accumulated annually at 5% interest until the date of the Annuitant’s death, proportionately adjusted for partial surrenders and deducting any loan balance.  We place a maximum on the amount accumulated at 5% interest of two times the total premiums paid, less surrenders and any loan balance; or

· the highest Contract Value as of a Contract Anniversary during any point the Contract has been in effect on or before the Annuitant’s death. Any loan balance will be deducted from and premiums paid since the last Contract Anniversary will be added to such Contract Value and the Contract Value will also be proportionately adjusted for partial surrenders.

We guarantee that the death benefit for ages above 80 equal the greater of:

· the Contract Value at the time of death; or

· the value of the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit on the Contract Anniversary following the Annuitant’s 80th birthday, calculated as described above, adjusted proportionately for partial surrenders, less any loan balance and plus any premiums paid since the Contract Anniversary following the Annuitant’s 80th birthday.

If you elect the Enhanced Combination Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option, the monthly Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit charge will equal 0.02912% of the Variable Account Value, which equals 0.35% of the Variable Account on an annualized basis.  This charge is deducted from the Variable Account Value every Monthly Anniversary Day.  (See "MONTHLY GUARANTEED MINIMUM DEATH BENEFIT EXPENSE CHARGE")  This option is only available at issue of the Contract and is only available to Annuitants with Issue Ages of 70 or below.

Adjustment to Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Calculation for Partial Surrenders

We will reduce the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit calculation by an amount equal to the percentage of the partial surrender as compared to the Contract Value as of the date of the withdrawal.

Changes in Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Options

If you have elected the Annual Ratchet or Enhanced Combination Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Options, you may change the option at any time to the Base Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option.  The effective date of change will be the Monthly Anniversary Day on or following the date we receive Written Notice of the change.

Death of Annuitant.  If the Annuitant dies before the Maturity Date while the Owner is alive, we will pay the death benefit Proceeds under the Contract to the Beneficiary.

We will pay the Proceeds to the Beneficiary in a lump sum unless you or the Beneficiary elect a payment option.  If the Annuitant is an Owner, we are required to distribute the Proceeds in accordance with the rules described below in "Death of Owner" for the death of an Owner before the Maturity Date.

No death benefit is payable if the Annuitant dies on or after the Maturity Date.

Death of Owner.  If an Owner dies before the Maturity Date while the Annuitant is alive, federal tax law requires (for a Non-Qualified Contract) that we distribute the Cash Surrender Value (or if an Owner is the Annuitant, the Proceeds payable upon the Annuitant's death) to the Beneficiary within five years after the date of the Owner's death.  If an Owner dies on or after the Maturity Date, we must distribute any remaining payments at least as rapidly as under the payment option in effect on the date of such Owner's death.

These distribution requirements will be considered satisfied as to any portion payable to the benefit of the Beneficiary if:

· the Proceeds are distributed over the life of that Beneficiary (or a period not exceeding the Beneficiary’s life expectancy);

32

· the distributions begin within one year of the Owner’s death; and

· the Beneficiary is a natural person, not a legal entity such as a corporation or trust.

If the deceased Owner's spouse is the designated Beneficiary, the Contract may be continued with such surviving spouse as the new Owner.  In this situation, if the Beneficiary wants to leave the Contract in force and the death benefit due to the Beneficiary is greater than the Contract Value; we will increase the Contract Value to equal the death benefit.  We will base this increase on the Contract Value on the date we are notified of the death of the Owner.  If the Contract has joint Owners, the surviving joint Owner will be the Beneficiary, unless otherwise specified in the application.  Joint Owners must be husband and wife as of the Contract Date.

The Contract provides that upon your death, a surviving spouse may have certain continuation rights that he or she may elect to exercise for the Contract’s death benefit. All Contract provisions relating to spousal continuation are available only to a person who meets the definition of “spouse” under federal law. The U.S. Supreme Court has held Section 3 of the federal Defense of Marriage Act (which purportedly did not recognize same-sex marriages, even those which are permitted under individual state laws) to be unconstitutional. Therefore, same-sex marriages recognized under state law will be recognized for federal law purposes. The Department of Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service have recently determined that for federal tax purposes, same-sex spouses will be determined based on the law of the state in which the marriage was celebrated irrespective of the law of the state in which the person resides. However, some uncertainty remains regarding the treatment of same-sex spouses. Consult a tax advisor for more information on this subject.

If an Owner is not an individual, the Annuitant, as determined in accordance with section 72(s) of the Internal Revenue Code, will be treated as an Owner for purposes of these distribution requirements.  Any change in or death of the Annuitant will be treated as the death of an Owner.

Other rules may apply to a Qualified Contract.

PROCEEDS ON MATURITY DATE

The Maturity Date is the latest date when Proceeds under the Contract are payable.  The Proceeds available on the Maturity Date vary depending upon how you elect to receive the Proceeds:

· we will apply the Contract Value (less any loan balance and any applicable premium taxes) if you elect to receive the Proceeds under a Life Payment Option; and

· we will apply the Cash Surrender Value (less any applicable premium taxes) if you elect to receive the Proceeds as a lump sum payment or as a Non-Life Payment Option.

You select the Maturity Date, subject to the following restrictions.  The latest Maturity Date is the later of:

· the Contract Anniversary following the Annuitant's 85th birthday; or

· the tenth Contract Anniversary.

For Qualified Contracts, distributions may be required to begin at age 70½.  Certain states limit the maximum Maturity Date.

You may change the Maturity Date subject to these limitations:

· we must receive your Written Notice at least 30 days before the current Maturity Date;

· you must request a Maturity Date that is at least 30 days after receipt of the Written Notice;

· the requested Maturity Date must be not later than any earlier Maturity Date required by law; and

· you submit your Contract if we require it.

On the Maturity Date, we will pay the maturity proceeds under the Life Income Option with a minimum guaranteed payment period of 120 months, unless you have chosen to receive the Proceeds under another payment option or in a lump sum.  (See "PAYMENT OPTIONS”)

PAYMENTS

We will usually pay any partial surrender, full surrender, or death benefit within seven days of receipt of a Written Notice.  All documents received must be in good order.  This means that instructions are sufficiently clear so that we do not need to exercise any discretion to follow such instructions.  We must also receive due proof of death to pay a death benefit.  We may postpone payments if:

33

· the New York Stock Exchange is closed, other than customary weekend and holiday closings or trading on the exchange is restricted as determined by the SEC; or

· the SEC permits by an order the postponement for the protection of Owners; or

· the SEC determines that an emergency exists that would make the disposal of securities held in the Variable Account or the determination of the value of the Variable Account's net assets not reasonably practical.

In addition, if, pursuant to SEC rules, the Federated Prime Money Fund II suspends payment of redemption proceeds in connection with a liquidation of the Fund, we will delay payment of any transfer, partial surrender, surrender, loan, or death benefit from the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount until the Fund is liquidated.

If you have made a recent premium or loan payment by check or draft, we may defer payment until such check or draft has been honored.  We also reserve the right to defer payment of transfers, partial and full cash surrenders, loans or death benefit Proceeds from the Fixed Account for up to six months.

If mandated under applicable law, we may be required to block an Owner's account and thereby refuse to pay any request for transfers, surrenders, loans, annuity payments, or death benefit Proceeds until instructions are received from the appropriate regulator.  We also may be required to provide additional information about you or your account to government regulators.

Legacy Account. As described below, Kansas City Life will pay death benefit Proceeds through Kansas City Life's Legacy Accounts.  For each claim, which meets the criteria listed below, Kansas City Life will set up a Legacy Account.  Kansas City Life will forward a Legacy Account checkbook to the Owner or Beneficiary.  The individual Legacy Accounts are managed by a third party administrator and the checks are drawn on a bank separate from the Kansas City Life general account.  The Legacy Accounts pay interest and provide check-writing privileges, which are funded by Kansas City Life.  An Owner or Beneficiary (whichever applicable) has immediate and full access to Proceeds by writing a check on the account.  Kansas City Life pays interest on death benefit Proceeds from the date of death to the date the Legacy Account is closed, and holds reserves to fund disbursements.  However, the Legacy Accounts are subject to the claims of creditors of Kansas City Life.  In addition, any interest credited to the Legacy Account will be currently taxable to the Owner or Beneficiary in the year in which it is credited.  Kansas City Life may profit from amounts left in a Legacy Account.  Further, the Legacy Accounts are retained asset accounts and are not bank accounts and are not insured, nor guaranteed, by the FDIC or any other government agency.

Kansas City Life will pay death benefit Proceeds through the Legacy Account when:

· the Proceeds are paid to an individual; and

· the amount of Proceeds is $5,000 or more; and

· the treatment is acceptable in the state in which the claim is made.

Any other use of the Legacy Account requires approval of the Company.

Every state has unclaimed property laws which generally declare annuity contracts to be abandoned after a period of inactivity of three to five years from the contract’s maturity date or date the death benefit is due and payable.  For example, if we are obligated to pay the death benefit or return premiums, but, if after a thorough search, we are unable to locate the beneficiary, or the beneficiary does not come forward to claim the death benefit or the premiums in a timely manner, the death benefit or the premiums will be paid to the abandoned property division or unclaimed property office of the state in which the beneficiary or the policy owner last resided, as shown on our books and records, or to our state of domicile.  This “escheatment” is revocable, however, and the state is obligated to pay the death benefit or the premiums (without interest) if your beneficiary steps forward to claim it within the time required by the state with the proper documentation.  To prevent such escheatment, it is important that you update your Beneficiary designations, including addresses, if and as they change.  Please call 800-616-3670 to make such changes.

MODIFICATIONS

We may modify the Contract, subject to providing notice to you.  We may only make modification if it is necessary to:

34

· assure continued qualification of the Contract under the Internal Revenue Code or other federal or state laws relating to retirement annuities or variable annuity contracts (except that your consent may be required by some states);

· reflect a change in the operation of the Variable Account; or

· provide additional Variable Account and/or fixed accumulation options.

We also have the right to modify the Contract as necessary to attempt to prevent the Contract Owner from being considered the owner of the assets of the Variable Account.

In the event of any such modification, we will issue an endorsement to the Contract (if required), which will reflect the changes.

OPTIONAL RIDERS

FIVE PLUSSM GUARANTEED MINIMUM WITHDRAWAL BENEFIT

IMPORTANT TERMS

Covered Person means:  the person whose life we use to determine the duration of the Lifetime Income Amount payments.  You should carefully consider who will be the Covered Person under the Five PlusSM Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit (the “GMWB”) rider.  Under Qualified Contracts, the Covered Person must be the Owner.  Under Non-Qualified Contracts, the Covered Person must be the Owner, Annuitant, or Beneficiary.  Certain benefits under this rider

depend on the age of the Covered Person and the relationship of the Owner to the Beneficiary.  (See “LIFETIME INCOME AMOUNT” and “DEATH BENEFITS”)

Designated Subaccounts means:  the Designated Subaccounts to which you can allocate premiums and Contract Value under this rider.  The Designated Subaccounts available depend on the Rider Effective Date.

Excess Withdrawal means:  a withdrawal, and any subsequent withdrawals in that Contract Year, that causes total withdrawals during a Contract Year to exceed the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount; or a withdrawal, and any subsequent withdrawals in that Contract Year, that causes total withdrawals during a Contract Year after the Lifetime Income Date to exceed the Lifetime Income Amount.

Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance means:  the total amount available for future periodic guaranteed withdrawals.

Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount means:  the amount we guarantee to be available each Contract Year for withdrawal until the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance reduces to zero.

Investment Strategy means:  the Model Allocations and/or Designated Subaccounts to which you must allocate premiums and Contract Value for this rider to remain in effect.

Model Allocation means:  one of the choices available for allocating your premiums and Contract Value under this rider if the Rider Effective Date is before May 29, 2012.

Rider Effective Date means:  the Contract Anniversary date that the Five PlusSM Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit (the “GMWB”) is effective from.

Lifetime Income Amount means:  the amount we guarantee to be available each Contract Year for withdrawal during the life of the Covered Person while this rider is in effect.  The Lifetime Income Amount reduces to zero upon the death of the Covered Person or upon a change in a Non-Qualified Contract that removes the Covered Person from the Contract as an Owner, Beneficiary, or Annuitant or upon a change in a Qualified Contract that removes the Covered Person from the Contract as an Owner.

Lifetime Income Date means:  the Contract Anniversary on or after the Covered Person reaches age 65, or the Rider Effective Date if the Covered Person is already age 65 or older at the time the rider is elected.

Withdrawal means:  the amounts partially surrendered as described in the Contract, including any applicable surrender charges.

Settlement Phase occurs:  when total withdrawals during the Contract Year are equal to or less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount; and when the Contract Value reduces to zero; and either the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance or the Lifetime Income Amount immediately after the withdrawal is greater than zero.

Note: Illustrations of how the Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit rider works are provided in Appendix B to this Prospectus.

DESCRIPTION OF THE GMWB RIDER

If you are concerned that poor investment performance or market volatility in the Subaccounts may adversely impact the amount of money you can withdraw from the Contract, we offer for an additional charge an optional GMWB rider.  The GMWB provides alternative guarantees - which guarantee you receive depends on the amount of the withdrawals you take and the age of the Covered Person.  First, the GMWB guarantees the return of all of the amounts you have invested in the Contract, as long as you limit your withdrawals each Contract Year to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount (this guarantee is available both before and after the Lifetime Income Date).  Second, on and after the Lifetime Income Date, as long as you limit your annual withdrawals to the Lifetime Income Amount, the GMWB guarantees you annual payments of that amount for the rest of the Covered Person’s life, no matter how long the Covered Person lives, even after you have recovered your investments in the Contract and even if your Contract Value reduces to zero.  However, the maximum amount you may be able to withdraw as a Lifetime Income Amount may be less than if you continued to take withdrawals as a Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount.

Example:

Assume that you purchase a Contract with the GMWB when you are 55.  Your initial premium payment is $100,000.  You make annual withdrawals in each of the next ten years equal to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount, or $5,000 (5% of the initial premium payment of $100,000).  Assuming 0% net investment experience and no annual bonus amounts credited during each of the ten years, after the 10th Contract Year your Contract Value will be $50,000 and your Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance will be $50,000.  You are the Covered Person under the Contract and are now 65 years old.  You have reached the Lifetime Income Date.  If, in each Contract Year thereafter, you limited your annual withdrawals to the Lifetime Income Amount of $2,500 (5% of $50,000 on the Lifetime Income Date), you would be eligible to receive the Lifetime Income Amount of $2,500 annually for the rest of your life.  However, if you continued to withdraw $5,000 annually, you would be guaranteed to receive back your entire $100,000 initial premium payment because your annual withdrawals did not exceed the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount.  You would then not be guaranteed to receive the Lifetime Income Amount annually for the rest of your life, because your annual withdrawals exceeded the Lifetime Income Amount of $2,500.

The GMWB does not guarantee Contract Value or the performance of any investment option or model allocation.

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

· If your annual withdrawals are greater than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount or the Lifetime Income Amount (after the Lifetime Income Date), the value of the GMWB rider may be significantly reduced.

· You must allocate all premiums and Contract Value to the Investment Strategy (described below) on and after the Rider Effective Date.

· To maximize your potential to receive payments under the GMWB rider, you must limit your withdrawals to withdrawals that are not Excess Withdrawals each Contract Year and allocate your Contract Value according to the Investment Strategy options described below.  These restrictions are intended to minimize the risk that your Contract Value will be reduced to zero before death, thereby requiring us to make settlement payments.

· Accordingly, a significant risk against which the rider protects, i.e., that your Contract Value will reduce to zero (other than due to an Excess Withdrawal) while you are alive, may be minimal.

· Moreover, because these restrictions lessen the risk that your Contract Value will be reduced to zero while you are still alive, they also significantly reduce the risk that we will make any settlement payments.

· In fact, if your Contract’s investment performance over time is sufficient to generate gains that can sustain periodic withdrawals equal to or greater than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance, then your Contract Value will never be reduced to zero and we will never make settlement payments.

· For certain Designated Subaccounts, risk and volatility mitigation is part of the Portfolio’s investment strategy.  That investment strategy could reduce your investment return.

· The GMWB rider will end on the Maturity Date unless we are making payments under the Settlement Phase of the GMWB rider.

· We do not automatically increase your Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance when your Contract appreciates in value.  We will only increase your Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance if you pay an additional premium or if there is a step-up or bonus.

· Please remember that all withdrawals, including those made under the GMWB rider, reduce your Contract Value and death benefit, may result in receipt of taxable income to the Owner under federal and state law, and if made before the Owner attains age 59½, may be subject to a 10% penalty tax.

· Withdrawals under the GMWB rider are not annuity payments.  Annuity payments generally receive more favorable tax treatment than withdrawals.  (See “FEDERAL TAX ISSUES”)

37

· You will begin paying the GMWB rider charge as of the Rider Effective Date, even if you do not begin taking withdrawals for many years.

· If the Covered Person dies or is no longer an Owner, Beneficiary, or Annuitant of the Non-Qualified Contract or is no longer an Owner of the Qualified Contract, the Lifetime Income Amount reduces to zero.

· To receive the full benefit of withdrawals for your lifetime, your Contract Value must be reduced to zero and the Annuitant must be living at that time.

· You may not make additional premium payments during the GMWB rider’s Settlement Phase.

· If you choose to not take withdrawals equal to or less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount during each Contract Year, the remaining Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount may not be carried forward to any other Contract Year.

· The GMWB rider may not be available in all states, and we may otherwise limit its availability.

· If the Covered Person is the Owner and the Owner dies before the Settlement Phase, the Lifetime Income Amount will reduce to zero.  The benefits provided by this rider will only continue if the Beneficiary is the surviving spouse of the Owner, the death benefit or the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is greater than zero at the time the death benefit is determined, and the Beneficiary does not take the death benefit under the terms of the Contract.

· Surrender charges will apply to the withdrawals you take.  (See “CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS”)

· Inflation may impact the value of the GMWB rider.

· The addition of the GMWB rider to your Contract will not automatically cancel any Systematic Partial Surrender Plan you have established.  Since withdrawals more than your Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount may significantly reduce or eliminate your ability to make withdrawals on and after the Lifetime Income Date, you should consider adjusting your existing Systematic Partial Surrender Plan.

· Withdrawals for more than your Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount may eliminate your ability to make withdrawals on or after the Lifetime Income Date and, if certain conditions are met, may increase the likelihood that your Contract could be terminated.

· Any amount we pay in excess of your Contract Value is subject to our financial strength and claims-paying ability.

You should not purchase the GMWB if:

· you expect to take annual withdrawals in excess of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount or the Lifetime Income Amount (after the Lifetime Income Date) because such Excess Withdrawals may significantly reduce or eliminate the value of the benefit;

· you are primarily interested in maximizing the Contract’s potential for long-term accumulation rather than building a Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance that will provide guaranteed withdrawals;

· your Contract is a Qualified Contract that has withdrawal restrictions that prevent you from taking withdrawals; or

· you do not expect to take withdrawals.

In considering whether to purchase the GMWB rider, you must consider your desire for protection and the cost of the rider versus the possibility that had you not purchased the GMWB rider, your Contract Value may have been higher.  The rider may not be appropriate for you if you plan to take Excess Withdrawals.  You should consult your financial professional to discuss whether the GMWB rider suits your needs.

WHEN TO TAKE WITHDRAWALS

You should carefully consider when to begin taking withdrawals if you have elected the GMWB rider.  If you begin taking withdrawals too soon, you may limit the value of the GMWB rider.  For example, you may not be able to increase your Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance and you may lose the potential for increases though step-ups and bonuses.  If you delay taking withdrawals for too long, you may limit the number of years available for you to take withdrawals in the future (due to life expectancy) and you may be paying for a benefit you are not using.

PURCHASING THE GMWB RIDER

You may elect the GMWB rider at the time you purchase a Contract or the rider may be added to an existing Contract provided:

· the rider is available for sale in the state where the Contract is sold;

· you limit your investment of premiums and Contract Value to the Investment Strategy options we make available with the rider;

· the Covered Person has attained age 20 and has not yet attained age 81; and

· the Contract does not have a loan balance.

We reserve the right to refuse to issue the GMWB rider at our sole discretion.

GUARANTEED WITHDRAWAL BALANCE

The Guaranteed Withdrawal Balanceis used to calculate the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and Lifetime Income Amount.  Your Guaranteed Withdrawal Balanceis not permitted to exceed $5 million.  The initial Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is equal to your initial premium, or if the GMWB rider is added after the Contract Date, the initial Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is the Contract Value on the Rider Effective Date.  Each time an additional premium is paid, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance increases by the amount of the additional premium.  The Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance may also increase as a result of a bonus or step-up and it will decrease as a result of a withdrawal.  (See “BONUS,” “STEP-UPS,” and “EFFECT OF WITHDRAWALS ON THE GUARANTEED WITHDRAWAL BALANCE AND THE GUARANTEED WITHDRAWAL AMOUNT”)  The Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is not a cash value or surrender value, is not available to the Owner, Annuitant or Beneficiary, is not a minimum return for any Subaccount, is not a guarantee of Contract Value, and may not be withdrawn as a lump sum.

GUARANTEED WITHDRAWAL AMOUNT

The Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount is the amount we guarantee to be available each Contract Year for withdrawal until the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance reduces to zero while the GMWB rider is in effect.  The maximum Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount at any time is $250,000.  The initial Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount is equal to 5% of the initial Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance.

LIFETIME INCOME AMOUNT

The Lifetime Income Amount is the amount we guarantee to be available each Contract Year, on and after the Lifetime Income Date, for withdrawal during the life of the Covered Person while the GMWB rider is in effect.  We determine the initial Lifetime Income Amount on the Lifetime Income Date. The initial Lifetime Income Amount is equal to 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance at the time we make our determination.  The Lifetime Income Amount reduces to zero upon the death of the Covered Person or upon a change on a Non-Qualified Contract that removes the Covered Person from the Contract as an Owner, Beneficiary, or Annuitant or upon a change on a Qualified Contract that removes the Covered Person from the Contract as an Owner.

Effect of Withdrawals on the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance and the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount.  If your total withdrawals during a Contract Year are less than or equal to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount, we will decrease the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance by the amount of the withdrawals.  If a withdrawal causes total withdrawals during a Contract Year to exceed the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount or if total withdrawals during a Contract Year have already exceeded the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount (referred to as “Excess Withdrawals”), we will automatically reset the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance to equal the lesser of:

· the Contract Value immediately after the Excess Withdrawal; or

· the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance immediately prior to the Excess Withdrawal minus the amount of the Excess Withdrawal.

Each time we reset the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance, we also recalculate the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount.

The Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount will equal the lesserof:

· the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount immediately prior to the Excess Withdrawal; or

· 5% multiplied by the greater of:

· the Contract Value immediately after the Excess Withdrawal; or

· the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance immediately after the Excess Withdrawal.

We do not recalculate your Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount when you make a withdrawal that is less than or equal to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and total withdrawals during that Contract Year remain below or equal to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount.

Effect of Withdrawals on the Lifetime Income Amount.  On orafter the Lifetime Income Date, we will recalculate the Lifetime Income Amount if a withdrawal causes total withdrawals during a Contract Year to exceed the Lifetime Income Amount or if total withdrawals during a Contract Year have already exceeded the Lifetime Income Amount (also referred to as “Excess Withdrawals”).  The Lifetime Income Amount will be automatically reset to equal the lesserof:

39

·       the Lifetime Income Amount immediately prior to the Excess Withdrawal; or

· 5% multiplied by the greater of:

· the Contract Value immediately after the Excess Withdrawal; or

· the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance immediately after the Excess Withdrawal.

We do not recalculate your Lifetime Income Amount when you make a withdrawal that is less than or equal to the Lifetime Income Amount and total withdrawals during that Contract Year remain below or equal to the Lifetime Income Amount.  In certain circumstances, however, we will not reset the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance, Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and/or the Lifetime Income Amount, even where a withdrawal would exceed the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and/or Lifetime Income Amount for a Contract Year.  These involve withdrawals taken as Required Minimum Distributions.  (See “REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS”)

Please note if you take any withdrawals before the Lifetime Income Date, the initial amount of the Lifetime Income Amount may be less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount.  Although you may continue to take withdrawals up to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount after the Lifetime Income Date without reduction of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount (as long as the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance has not reduced to zero) your Lifetime Income Amount may be reduced if the amount you withdraw exceeds the Lifetime Income Amount.  You could eventually lose any benefit based on the Lifetime Income Amount if you continue to take withdrawals in excess of the Lifetime Income Amount.

Remember:

· Excess Withdrawals could reduce your Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance by substantially more than the actual amount of the withdrawal.

· Excess Withdrawals may significantly reduce or eliminate future Guaranteed Withdrawal Amounts and Lifetime Income Amounts.

BONUS

We will increase the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance at the end of each Contract Year during the GMWB rider’s bonus period if you take no withdrawals during that Contract Year.  The bonus period is the first 10 Contract Years after the Rider Effective Date while the Covered Person is less than age 80.  Each time you qualify for a bonus:

If the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance was not previously stepped-up or reset,we will increase the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance by:

· an amount equal to 5% of total premiums paid (subject to the applicable limits on additional premiums) to the Contract if the rider is issued on the Contract Date; or

· an amount equal to 5% of the initial Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance, increased by any premiums paid (subject to the applicable limits on additional premiums) since the Rider Effective Date, if this rider is added after the Contract Date.

If the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance was previously stepped-up or reset,we will increase the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance by an amount equal to 5% of the sum of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance immediately after the latest step-up or reset, and any premiums received since such latest step-up or reset.

Each time we apply a bonus to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance, we will also recalculate the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and the Lifetime Income Amount as follows:

· The Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount will equal the greater of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount immediately prior to the bonus or 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance immediately after the bonus; and

· The Lifetime Income Amount will equal the greater of the Lifetime Income Amount immediately prior to the bonus or 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance immediately after the bonus.

Bonuses, when applied, will increase the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance and consequently, will increase the rider charges (because such charges are based on a greater Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance).  Further, bonuses may increase the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and the Lifetime Income Amount.  Bonuses do not increase the Contract Value of the Contract.

STEP-UPS

If the Contract Value on any step-up date is greater than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance on that date, we will automatically increase (“step-up”) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance to equal the Contract Value (subject to the

40

maximum Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance limit of $5 million). Upon a step-up, we will also recalculate the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount, the Lifetime Income Amount, and the current monthly rider charge percentage.  (See “GMWB RIDER CHARGE”)

The Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount will equal the greater of:

· the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount immediately prior to the step-up; or

· 5% multiplied by the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance immediately after the step-up.

The Lifetime Income Amount will equal the greater of:

· the Lifetime Income Amount immediately prior to the step-up; or

· 5% multiplied by the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance immediately after the step-up.

We reserve the right to increase the current monthly rider charge percentage up to 0.10%.  If we decide to increase the current monthly rider charge percentage at the time of a step-up, you will receive advance notice and be given the opportunity to decline the automatic step-up.  (See “GMWB RIDER CHARGE”)

The step-up dates occur only while the GMWB rider is in effect.  For Contracts with a GMWB Rider with a Rider Effective Date before May 29, 2012, the step-up dates occur on each of the 3rd, 6th, and 9th Contract Anniversaries after the Rider Effective Date.  After the 9th Contract Anniversary, the step-up dates occur on each succeeding Contract Anniversary (e.g., the 10th, 11th, 12th etc.) up to and including the 30th Contract Anniversary after the Rider Effective Date.  For Contracts with a GMWB Rider with a Rider Effective Date of May 29, 2012 or after, the step-up dates occur on each Contract Anniversary after the Rider Effective Date up to and including the 30th Contract Anniversary after the Rider Effective Date.  If you decline an automatic step-up, you will have the option to elect to step-up the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance (as well as the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and Lifetime Income Amount) within 30 days of subsequent step-up dates.  If you decide to step-up the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance, we will thereafter resume automatic step-ups.

Please note that the automatic step-up may be of limited benefit if you intend to make premium payments that would cause your Contract Value to approach $5 million, since the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is not permitted to exceed $5 million.

Step-ups will increase the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance and may increase the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and the Lifetime Income Amount.

ADDITIONAL PREMIUMS

We will increase the total Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance by the amount of each additional premium we accept (subject to the maximum Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance limit of $5 million). In addition, we will recalculate the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and the Lifetime Income Amount:

In the case of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount, to equal the greater of the:

· Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount immediately prior to the premium; or

· the lesser of:

· 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance immediately after the premium; or

· the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount immediately prior to the premium plus an amount equal to 5% of the premium.

In the case of the Lifetime Income Amount, to equal the greater of the:

· Lifetime Income Amount immediately prior to the premium; or

· the lesser of:

· 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance immediately after the premium; or

· the Lifetime Income Amount immediately prior to the premium plus an amount equal to 5% of the premium.

We do not permit additional premiums during a GMWB rider’s “Settlement Phase,” as described below.

41

Premium limits on Non-Qualified Contracts.   If we issue your Contract not in connection with an IRA or other tax-qualified retirement plan, we also impose the following limit on your ability to pay premiums.  On or after the first Contract Anniversary following the Rider Effective Date, we will not accept any additional premium without our prior approval that either:

· exceeds $100,000; or

· causes the total of all additional premiums paid since the first Contract Anniversary following the Rider Effective Date to exceed $100,000.

For Non-Qualified Contracts, we reserve the right to refuse to accept additional premiums at any time after the first Contract Anniversary following the Rider Effective Date.

Premium limits on Qualified Contracts.If we issue your Contract in connection with a tax-qualified retirement plan, including an IRA, we also impose additional limits on your ability to make premium payments:

· after the first Contract Anniversary after the Covered Person reaches age 65, we will not accept additional premium payments, without our prior approval, that exceed $100,000 or cause the total premiums paid after the first Contract Anniversary following the Rider Effective Date to exceed $100,000; and

· we will not accept any premium after the Covered Person becomes age 81.

For Qualified Contracts, we reserve the right to refuse to accept additional premiums at any time after the first Contract Anniversary after the Covered Person reaches age 65.

You should consult with a qualified tax adviser prior to electing the GMWB rider for further information on tax rules affecting Qualified Contracts, including IRAs.

Please note that the premium limitations discussed in this section are in addition to the premium limitations discussed under “Purchasing a Contract” earlier in the Prospectus.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY

The Investment Strategy includes Model Allocations, each based on different profiles of an investor’s willingness to accept investment risk, and Designated Subaccounts.  As discussed below, the Investment Strategy that is available to you will vary based on your GMWB rider effective date.  (See “AVAILABLE MODEL ALLOCATIONS AND DESIGNATED SUBACCOUNTS”)  You must choose one of these available Model Allocations or Designated Subaccounts and your initial premium payment (in the case of a new application) or Contract Value, as applicable, will be allocated to the Investment Strategy according to the investment option you select.  Subsequent premium payments will also be allocated accordingly. Contract Value will be rebalanced quarterly to maintain the current allocations.  Investment in an Investment Strategy is intended to minimize the risk that your Contract Value will be reduced to zero because of guaranteed withdrawals before the Annuitant’s death, thereby requiring Kansas City Life to make settlement payments to you during the Settlement Phase.

While the GMWB rider is in effect, you must invest 100% of your premium payments and Contract Value at all times in a manner consistent with any one of the Model Allocations or Designated Subaccounts currently offered in the Investment Strategy (please note that solely for the purposes of the Dollar Cost Averaging Plan, under our current administrative procedures, we deem the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount to be a Designated Subaccount.  (See “AVAILABLE MODEL ALLOCATIONS AND DESIGNATED SUBACCOUNTS”)

Unless you request otherwise, withdrawals will be taken in proportion to the Contract Value in the Subaccounts; you may specify the Subaccounts from which a withdrawal is to be made.

You should consult with your financial professional to assist you in determining which Model Allocation or Designated Subaccount available with the GMWB rider is best suited for your financial needs and risk tolerance.

AVAILABLE MODEL ALLOCATIONS AND DESIGNATED SUBACCOUNTS

You must allocate your entire Contract Value to one of the available Investment Strategy options shown below (however, solely for the purposes of the Dollar Cost Averaging Plan, under our current administrative procedures, we deem the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount to be a Designated Subaccount).  On a quarterly basis, we will rebalance your entire Contract Value to the Subaccounts in accordance with the percentages specified in the Model Allocation/Designated Subaccount you elected.

42

Under our Dollar Cost Averaging Plan, you may elect to allocate your premiums and Contract Value over time to one of the available Model Allocations or Designated Subaccounts.  If you elect the Dollar Cost Averaging Plan and you have elected the GMWB rider, transfers will occur on a monthly basis for a period you choose, ranging from 3 to 12 months.

We offer Model Allocations, each comprised of a carefully selected combination of investment options, and Designated Subaccounts.  You need to determine which Model Allocation or Designated Subaccount is best for you.  You should not regard the Model Allocations or Designated Subaccounts as investment advice.  You should consult with your financial adviser on this decision.  Your financial adviser can help you determine which Investment Strategy option is best suited to your financial needs, investment time horizon, and willingness to accept investment risk.  You should periodically review these factors with your financial adviser to determine if you should change the Investment Strategy option to keep up with changes in your personal circumstances.  Your financial adviser can assist you in completing the proper forms to make a change to a different Investment Strategy option.  Kansas City Life bears no responsibility for your decision to select or change your Investment Strategy option.

Sunset Financial Services, Inc., an affiliate of Kansas City Life Insurance Company, will serve as your investment adviser solely for purposes of developing and updating the Model Allocations.  If you select a Designated Subaccount instead of a Model Allocation, you will not have an investment advisory relationship with Sunset Financial.  For more information on Sunset Financial’s role as investment adviser in connection with the Model Allocations, please see Part 2 of Sunset Financial’s Form ADV (the investment adviser registration form), which will be provided to you if you select a Model Allocation and at any time upon your request.

On a periodic basis or when Sunset Financial believes appropriate, the Model Allocations are evaluated and the Model Allocations are updated, as discussed below.  In developing and periodically updating the Model Allocations, we currently rely on the recommendations of an independent third-party analytical firm.  We may change the firm that we use from time to time, or, to the extent permissible under applicable law, use no independent firm at all.

Each of the Model Allocations is evaluated periodically to assess whether the combination of Investment Options within each Model Allocation should be changed.  As a result of the periodic analysis, the percentage allocations in each Model Allocation may change, and Subaccounts may be added to or substituted in a Model Allocation (including Subaccounts not currently available), or Subaccounts may be deleted from a Model Allocation.  We also periodically evaluate the Designated Subaccounts, and may add, remove, or substitute the Designated Subaccounts within the Investment Strategy.

We will notify you at least 30 days in advance of any substitution, removal, or change to a Model Allocation or Designated Subaccount that you selected.  You should carefully review these notices.  If you wish to accept the changes in your selected Investment Strategy option, you will not need to take any action, as your Contract Value and any subsequent premium payments will be reallocated in accordance with the updated Investment Strategy option accordingly.  If you do not wish to accept the changes to your selected Investment Strategy option, you can change to a different Investment Strategy option or terminate the GMWB rider.

No Model Allocation is a fund-of-funds.  For more information regarding each Fund that we permit you to invest in through an Investment Strategy option, including information relating to that Fund’s investment objectives, policies and restrictions, and the risks of investing in that Fund, please see the “Kansas City Life, the Variable Account and the Funds” section of this Prospectus as well as the Fund’s prospectus.  You can obtain a Prospectus containing more complete information on each of the Funds by contacting Variable Administration at 1-800-616-3670.  You should read the Fund’s prospectus carefully before investing.

45

You may change to one of the other available Model Allocations or Designated Subaccounts within the Investment Strategy, at any time, by Written Request.  Any change will be effective on the date we receive your Written Request.  You must transfer all of your Contract Value at the time of such Written Request to that Model Allocation or Designated Subaccount.  You may not make transfers between the Subaccounts and the Fixed Account other than to transfer 100% of your Contract Value to another Investment Strategy option.  We will waive the restrictions defined in “Transfer Privilege” if the applicable transfer is required under the terms of the GMWB rider.

A Model Allocation or a Designated Subaccount may not perform as intended.  Although the Model Allocations are intended to optimize returns given various levels of risk tolerance, portfolio, market and asset class performance may differ in the future from the historical performance and assumptions upon which the Model Allocations are based, which could cause the Model Allocations to be ineffective or less effective in reducing volatility.  Investment performance of your Contract Value could be better or worse than expected.  A Model Allocation may perform better or worse than any single Subaccount or asset class or other combinations of Investment Options or asset classes.  One purpose of requiring you to invest in accordance with the Investment Strategy is to limit Kansas City Life’s exposure under the GMWB rider.  This is done by ensuring that your Contract Value is diversified and not concentrated in the riskiest Subaccounts.  You should not purchase the GMWB rider if you wish to allocate your Contract Value in a non-diversified or highly aggressive manner.

Model Allocation performance is dependent upon the performance of the component Subaccounts.  The timing of your investment and the frequency of automatic rebalancing may affect performance.  Your Contract Value will fluctuate, and when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

Sunset Financial may be subject to competing interests that have the potential to influence its decision making with regard to the Model Allocations (such competing interests also may be present when Kansas City Life selects the Designated Subaccounts that are available in the Investment Strategy).  For example, Kansas City Life may receive greater compensation in connection with investments in certain Subaccounts than other Subaccounts, thereby providing Sunset Financial with incentive to use the Subaccount with the higher compensation as part of a Model Allocation.  All Model Allocations are analyzed by an independent third party analytical firm.  We do not dictate to the third party analytical firm the number of Subaccounts in a Model Allocation, the percent that any Subaccount represents in a Model Allocation, or which Subaccounts may be selected (other than to require the exclusion of any Subaccount that is expected to be liquidated, merged into another Subaccount, or otherwise closed).  We believe our reliance on the recommendations of an independent third-party analytical firm to develop and update the Model Allocations (as described above) reduces the potential for us to be influenced by these competing interests, but there can be no assurance of this.

The Subaccounts and the Funds in which they invest will need to issue new accumulation units or shares, or redeem their accumulation units or shares, as a result of the periodic updating of the Model Allocations.  Therefore, a Fund may need to buy securities with the money it receives from shares issued or sell securities to raise cash to pay redemption proceeds, thereby incurring transaction costs and possibly disrupting the management of the Fund.  This may adversely affect the performance of the Funds and the Model Allocations.

If you elect to purchase the GMWB rider you may invest your Contract Value only in the Investment Strategy options we make available with this benefit.

REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS

For purposes of the GMWB rider, withdrawals considered Required Minimum Distributions are distributions within a calendar year that are intended to be paid to you as required by section 401(a)(9), section 403(b)(10), section 408(b)(3), or section 408A(c) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Under our Required Minimum Distributions program, each withdrawal will be in an amount that we determine to be your Required Minimum Distribution under your Contract, considering only that Contract.  Our calculation will be based on information that you provide and our understanding of the Code.  We reserve the right to make any changes we deem necessary to comply with the Code and Treasury Regulations.

You should discuss these matters with your tax adviser prior to electing the GMWB rider.

Each withdrawal under our Required Minimum Distributions program will reduce your Contract Value and your Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance.  We will not, however, reset your Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance, Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount or Lifetime Income Amount if a withdrawal under our Required Minimum Distributions program (based on our current understanding and interpretation of the tax law) causes total withdrawals during a Contract Year to exceed the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount or Lifetime Income Amount, as applicable.

46

We will not make any further withdrawals under our Required Minimum Distributions program if both the Contract Value and the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance reduce to zero.  We will make distributions as part of the GMWB rider’s Settlement Phase, however, if the Lifetime Income Amount is greater than zero and the Covered Person is living at that time.

Required Minimum Distributions provide minimum lifetime distributions as described or as required under certain sections of the Code.  Withdrawals under our Required Minimum Distributions program will not be treated as Excess Withdrawals and will not reset the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance, Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount or Lifetime Income Amount.

SETTLEMENT PHASE

We automatically make settlement payments during the GMWB rider’s Settlement Phase.  The Settlement Phase begins if total withdrawals during the Contract Year:

· are equal to or less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount; and

· the Contract Value reduces to zero and either the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance or the Lifetime Income Amount immediately after the withdrawal is still greater than zero.

During this phase, the Contract will continue but all other rights and benefits under the Contract, including death benefits and any additional riders, terminate.  We will not accept additional premiums and we will not deduct any charge for the GMWB rider during the Settlement Phase.

At the beginning of the Settlement Phase, you generally may choose an annual settlement payment amount that we will automatically pay to you.  The settlement payment amount we permit you to choose varies:

· You may choose an amount that is equal to, or no greater than, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount if the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is greater than zero at the beginning of the Settlement Phase.  We reduce any remaining Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance each time we make a settlement payment, and automatically pay the settlement amount to you each Contract Year while the Covered Person is alive until the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance reduces to zero.  After that, we will make settlement payments to you each Contract Year during the Covered Person’s lifetime in an amount that is equal to any remaining Lifetime Income Amount.  Keep in mind that in certain circumstances the Lifetime Income Amount may be less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount, and under those circumstances your choice of an amount in excess of the Lifetime Income Amount could result in a reduction of the Lifetime Income Amount.  (See “EFFECT OF WITHDRAWALS ON THE LIFETIME INCOME AMOUNT”)

· You may choose to continue to receive distribution payments under the Required Minimum Distribution program if the program is in effect and the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is greater than zero at the beginning of the Settlement Phase. If you do, we will reduce any remaining Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance each time we make a distribution payment and automatically make distribution payments each Contract Year while the Covered Person is alive until the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance reduces to zero.  (See “REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS”)  After that, we will make settlement payments to you each Contract Year during the Covered Person’s lifetime in an amount that is equal to any remaining Lifetime Income Amount.

· We will make annual settlement payments to you each Contract Year during the Covered Person’s lifetime in an amount that is equal to the Lifetime Income Amount if there is no remaining Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance at the beginning of the Settlement Phase.

· After the Lifetime Income Date, if you choose to receive a settlement payment that is in excess of the Lifetime Income Amount, we will recalculate the Lifetime Income Amount in the same manner as a withdrawal that exceeds the Lifetime Income Amount.  (See “EFFECT OF WITHDRAWALS ON THE LIFETIME INCOME AMOUNT”)  We do not recalculate the Lifetime Income Amount, however, if you receive distribution payments under the Required Minimum Distribution program.

Any withdrawal you make under the GMWB rider before the Settlement Phase is a withdrawal from your Contract Value. We are only required to start using our own money to make payments when the GMWB rider Settlement Phase begins.

Withdrawals under the GMWB rider are not annuity payouts.  Annuity payouts generally receive a more favorable tax treatment than other withdrawals.

47

DEATH BENEFITS

Death benefits before the Settlement Phase

If you die while the GMWB rider is in effect but beforethe Settlement Phase, the GMWB rider generally will terminate.  This means Kansas City Life will make no more payments under this rider.

However, if (i) you die while the GMWB rider is in effect but before the Settlement Phase, (ii) the sole Beneficiary is your surviving spouse, and (iii) your surviving spouse does not elect to take the death benefit under the terms of the Contract, the following will apply:

If:	Then the GMWB rider:
the Covered Person is no longer alive	·Does not continue with respect to the Lifetime Income Amount, but continues with respect to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount if the death benefit or the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is greater than zero. We will automatically step-up the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance to equal the death benefit on the date it is determined, if the death benefit on that date is greater than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance. ·Enters the Settlement Phase if a withdrawal would reduce the Contract Value to zero, and the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is still greater than zero. ·Continues to impose the GMWB rider charge. ·Continues to be eligible for any remaining bonuses and step-ups. We will permit the spouse to opt out of the initial death benefit step-up, if any, and any future step-ups if we would increase the rate of the GMWB rider charge at that time.
the Covered Person is alive (e.g.  if the Beneficiary is the Covered Person)	·Continues with respect to the Lifetime Income Amount for the Beneficiary. If the Lifetime Income Amount has not been determined prior to the payment of the death benefit, we will determine the initial Lifetime Income Amount on the first Contract Anniversary after the Covered Person has reached age 65. ·Continues with respect to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount if the death benefit or the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is greater than zero. We will automatically step-up the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance to equal the death benefit on the date it is determined, if the death benefit on that date is greater than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance. ·Enters the Settlement Phase if a withdrawal would reduce the Contract Value to zero, and either the Lifetime Income Amount or the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is still greater than zero. ·Continues to impose the GMWB rider charge. ·Continues to be eligible for any remaining bonuses and step-ups. We will permit the spouse to opt out of the initial death benefit step-up, if any, and any future step-ups if we would increase the rate of the GMWB rider charge at that time.

Note that under Qualified Contracts other than IRAs, spousal continuation will not satisfy Required Minimum Distributions. Consult a tax adviser.

Death benefit during the Settlement Phase

If the Covered Person dies during the Settlement Phase, no death benefit under the Contract will be payable.  The only death benefit we provide are the remaining settlement payments that may become due under the GMWB rider.  Those payments will be made at least as rapidly as they were being paid before the death of the Covered Person.

TERMINATION

Although the GMWB rider provides that you may not terminate the rider for five years from the Rider Effective Date, we are waiving this provision.  You may terminate your GMWB rider at any time.

Nevertheless, there are circumstances when your GMWB rider will terminate automatically.  Your GMWB rider will terminate automatically upon the earliest of:

· the date the Contract terminates for any reason; or

· the date this rider is cancelled by you; or

· the date a death benefit is payable upon the death of any Owner, unless the surviving spouse is the sole Beneficiary; or

48

· the date a death benefit is payable upon the death of the Owner and the Beneficiary takes the death benefit under the terms of the Contract; or

· the date a death benefit is payable upon the death of the Annuitant who is not the Owner; or

· the date an annuity option under the Contract begins; or

· the date the Contract Value, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance, and the Lifetime Income Amount all equal zero; or

· the date you change the allocation of a subsequent premium payment or transfer Contract Value to an investment option other than to an Investment Strategy option.

GMWB RIDER CHARGE

We charge an additional monthly charge on the Monthly Anniversary Day for the GMWB rider.  The current GMWB rider charge is equal to 0.079% multiplied by the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance.  However, if you elected the GMWB rider before January 1, 2009 and your GWB has not stepped-up since January 1, 2009, the current charge for your GMWB rider is 0.05% multiplied by the Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Balance.  We deduct the rider charge from each Subaccount in the same proportion that the value of each Subaccount is to the Contract Value.  We do not deduct the rider charge during the GMWB rider’s Settlement Phase.

We reserve the right to increase the current monthly rider charge percentage on the effective date of each step-up.  However, the current monthly rider charge percentage will never exceed 0.10%.

The addition of the GMWB rider to a Contract may not always be in your interest since an additional charge is deducted monthly for this benefit and the Covered Person must attain age 65 and remain living for you to receive certain benefits.  Furthermore, the GMWB rider limits the investment options otherwise available under the Contract, contains age caps and limitations on an Owner’s rights and benefits at certain ages and values, and provides no guaranteed withdrawal benefits once payments begin under any of the payment options described in this Prospectus.  You should carefully consider each of these factors before deciding if the GMWB rider is suitable for your needs, especially at older ages.

FEDERAL TAX ISSUES

The application of certain tax rules to the GMWB rider, particularly those rules relating to distributions from your Contract, are not entirely clear.  In this regard, we intend to treat any amounts received by you under the GMWB rider during the Settlement Phase as annuity payments for tax purposes.  However, we intend to treat the payments made to you prior to the Settlement Phase or to our establishing an annuity date, as withdrawals for tax purposes.  (See “FEDERAL TAX STATUS”)  In view of this uncertainty, you should consult a tax adviser before purchasing a GMWB rider.

The value of the GMWB rider may need to be included in calculating Required Minimum Distributions under Qualified Contracts.  Consult a tax adviser.

THE FIXED ACCOUNT

You may allocate some or all of the premiums and transfer some or all of the Variable Account Value to the Fixed Account. You may also make transfers from the Fixed Account, but restrictions may apply.  (See “TRANSFERS FROM FIXED ACCOUNT”)  The Fixed Account is part of our general account and pays interest at declared rates guaranteed for each calendar year.  We guarantee the amount of premiums paid plus guaranteed interest and less applicable deductions.

Our general account supports our insurance and annuity obligations.  Since the Fixed Account is part of our general account, we assume the risk of investment gain or loss on this amount.  All assets in the general account are subject to our general liabilities from business operations.

The Fixed Account is not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and is not registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.  The Securities and Exchange Commission has not reviewed the disclosure in this Prospectus relating to the Fixed Account.  Certain general provisions of the Federal securities laws relating to the accuracy and completeness of statements made in prospectuses still apply.

49

GUARANTEED AND CURRENT INTEREST RATES

There are two interest rates that are applicable to the Fixed Account – the guaranteed interest rate and the current interest rate.  The actual rate credited to the Fixed Account Value is the greater of the guaranteed interest rate and the current interest rate.

Guaranteed interest rate for Contracts issued on or after May 31, 2011, if approved in your state.  The guaranteed interest rate is the minimum interest rate that we will credit to the Fixed Account Value.  We guarantee that this rate will be at least 1% but not more than 3% per year.

We determine the guaranteed interest rate on your Contract Date and on each Redetermination Date thereafter.  The guaranteed interest rate will be in effect from the Contract Date until the first Redetermination Date, and thereafter, from each Redetermination Date until the next Redetermination Date.

The redetermined guaranteed interest rate for the Fixed Account is based on the 5-year Constant Treasury Maturity monthly average rate for November of the previous calendar year published by the Federal Reserve (the “Treasury Rate”). The redetermined guaranteed interest rate for the Fixed Account will be calculated as the Treasury Rate rounded to the nearest five-hundredths of one percent (0.05%) reduced by 1.25%, and will be at least 1% and not more than 3% annually. We will notify you when your guaranteed interest rate is redetermined.

Guaranteed interest rate for Contracts issued before May 31, 2011 and for Contracts issued on and after May 31, 2011 where the guaranteed interest rate described above has not been approved by your state.  The guaranteed interest rate is the minimum interest rate that we will credit to the Fixed Account Value.  The guaranteed interest rate is 3% per year.

Current Interest Rate.  We may credit a current interest rate in excess of the guaranteed interest rate. Current interest rates are influenced by, but do not necessarily correspond to, prevailing market interest rates.  We will determine current interest rates at our discretion.  You assume the risk that the interest rate we credit may not exceed the guaranteed interest rate.  Since we anticipate changing the current interest rate from time to time, we may credit different allocations with different current interest rates, based upon the date amounts are allocated to the Fixed Account.  We will not change the current interest rate credited to funds in the Fixed Account more often than once each year.

For the purpose of crediting interest, we currently account for amounts deducted from the Fixed Account on a last-in, first out (“LIFO”) basis.  We may change the method of crediting interest from time to time, provided that such changes do not have the effect of reducing the guaranteed rate of interest.  We may also shorten the period for which the interest rate applies to less than a year (except for the year in which such amount is received or transferred).

CALCULATION OF FIXED ACCOUNT VALUE

On the Contract Date, the Fixed Account Value is equal to the portion of the premium allocated to the Fixed Account.

On each Valuation Day thereafter, the Fixed Account Value is equal to:

· Fixed Account Value on the preceding Valuation Day; plus

· amounts allocated or transferred to the Fixed Account; plus

· interest credited; less

· amounts deducted, transferred, or surrendered from the Fixed Account since the preceding Valuation Day, including any interest.

TRANSFERS FROM FIXED ACCOUNT

We allow one transfer each Contract Year from the Fixed Account.  During the first eight Contract Years, the amount transferred from the Fixed Account may not exceed the greatest of:

· 25% of the unloaned Fixed Account Value in the Fixed Account on the date of transfer (unless the balance after the transfer is less than $250, in which case we will transfer the entire amount); or

· the amount transferred out of the Fixed Account in the prior Contract Year; or

· $2,000 (or the unloaned Fixed Account Value, if less).

Beginning in the 9th Contract Year, there is no limitation on the amount transferred from the Fixed Account.

50

Because of the transfer limitations during the first eight Contract Years, it may take you several years to transfer all your Fixed Account Contract Value to the Variable Account.  You should carefully consider whether the Fixed Account meets your investment criteria.

DELAY OF PAYMENT

We have the right to defer payment of any surrender, partial surrender, or transfer from the Fixed Account for up to six months from the date we receive Written Notice for a partial surrender, full surrender, or transfer.  If we do not make the payment within 30 days after we receive the documentation required to complete the transaction, we will add 3% interest to the amount paid from the date we receive documentation.  Some states may require that we pay interest on periods of delay less than 30 days and some states may require us to pay an interest rate higher than 3% when we delay payment Proceeds.

CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS

SURRENDER CHARGE

General.  We do not deduct a charge for sales expense from premiums at the time you pay them.  However, we may deduct a surrender charge when a premium is withdrawn upon a surrender or partial surrender or if you elect a Non-Life Payment Option during the first eight years following the payment of that premium.  The purpose of the surrender charge is to reimburse us for some of the expenses we incur in distributing the Contracts.  If the surrender charges are not enough to cover sales expenses, we will bear the loss.  If the amount of such charges proves more than enough, we will keep the excess.  We do not currently believe that the surrender charges imposed will cover the expected costs of distributing the Contracts.  We will make up any shortfall from our general assets, which may include amounts we derive from the mortality and expense risk charge.

Charge for Partial Surrender or Surrender.  If you take a partial or full surrender of the Contract or elect a Non-Life Payment Option, the applicable surrender charge applicable to each premium withdrawn or annuitized will be as follows:

During Premium Year*
Year	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9+
Percentage	8%	8%	7%	6%	5%	4%	3%	2%	0%

*Premium Year refers to the 12-month period following the date we credit a particular premium to your Contract.  After eight years following the date we credit a particular premium, there will be no surrender charge applicable to that premium payment.

The total surrender charge applicable will be the sum of the surrender charges applicable to each premium.  To determine the surrender charge we first assume that your surrender or Non-Life Payment Option election is from amounts (other than earnings) that can be withdrawn without a surrender charge, then from other amounts (other than earnings) and then from earnings, each on a “first-in-first-out” (oldest money first) basis.  Once we have calculated the total surrender charge amount we actually withdraw it from the Fixed Account and Subaccounts in the same proportion that the withdrawal is being made.  In calculating the surrender charge, we do not include earnings, although the actual withdrawal to pay the surrender charge may come from earnings.

If you surrender the Contract, we will deduct the surrender charge from the Contract Value in determining the Cash Surrender Value.  For a partial surrender, we will deduct the surrender charge from the amount surrendered or from the Contract Value remaining after the amount requested is surrendered, according to your instructions.

Amounts Not Subject to Surrender Charge.  Your first partial surrender during a Contract Year will not be subject to a surrender charge to the extent that the amount you surrender is not in excess of 10% of the Contract Value.  We limit this 10% free partial surrender to the first partial surrender per Contract Year, even if the amount you surrender is less than 10% of the Contract Value.  We will assess the applicable surrender charge on any amounts surrendered in excess of 10% and any additional surrenders, which occur after the first partial surrender in a Contract Year.  The 10% free partial surrender is not cumulative from year to year.

If you make a full surrender of the Contract the surrender charge does not apply to 10% of the Contract Value provided you have not already received credit for the 10% free partial surrender during that Contract Year.  If you have not already

51

received the free 10% partial surrender in that Contract Year, then only 90% of the Contract Value is subject to a surrender charge upon a full surrender.

If you have elected to participate in the Systematic Partial Surrender Plan, your 10% free partial withdrawal may apply to payments under this plan as long as you have not already received your free partial withdrawal for that Contract Year.  (See “SYSTEMATIC PARTIAL SURRENDER PLAN”)  You are limited to one election of the Systematic Partial Surrender Plan per Contract Year without being subject to the surrender charge.  (This limitation applies even if the amount surrendered during that Contract Year is less than 10% of the Contract Value.)  In the Contract Year in which you elect to participate in the Plan, we will calculate the 10% limitation based on the Contract Value at the time of election.  In each subsequent Contract Year in which you continue to participate in the Plan, we will calculate the 10% limitation based on the Contract Value as of the beginning of that year.  We will notify you if the total amount to be surrendered in a subsequent Contract Year will exceed 10% of the Contract Value as of the beginning of such Contract Year.  Unless you instruct us to reduce the surrender amount for that year so that it does not exceed the 10% limit, we will continue to process surrenders for the designated amount.  Once the amount of the surrender exceeds the 10% limit, we will deduct the applicable surrender charge from the remaining Contract Value.  Eight years after the final premium payment, when the surrender charge reaches zero, we will no longer apply a surrender charge, unless additional premium payments are received.

If you elect a Life Payment Option, we will not apply a surrender charge.

Nursing Home Waiver.  If you meet the requirements described below for the Nursing Home Waiver, we will pay out the full Contract Value without applying any surrender charges.  In order to be eligible for this waiver:

· we must receive satisfactory proof that you are admitted to a licensed nursing home;

· the Contract Value must be paid out in equal amounts over at least a three-year period; and

· you must be confined for at least 90 days before we will waive the surrender charges.

This waiver may not be available in all states.

TRANSFER PROCESSING FEE

The first six transfers during each Contract Year are free.  We will assess a transfer processing fee of $25 for each additional transfer during such Contract Year.  For the purpose of assessing the fee, we will consider each Written Request for a transfer to be one transfer, regardless of the number of accounts affected by the transfer.  We will deduct the transfer processing fee from the amount being transferred or from the remaining Contract Value, according to your instructions.

ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGES

Annual Administration Fee.  At the beginning of each Contract Year we will deduct an annual administration fee of $30 (or less if required by applicable state law) from the Contract Value.  The purpose of this fee is to reimburse us for administrative expenses relating to the Contract.  We will waive this fee for Contracts with Contract Values of $50,000 or more at the beginning of the applicable Contract Year.  We will deduct the charge from each Subaccount and the Fixed Account based on the proportion that the value in each account bears to the total Contract Value.  This fee does not apply after the Maturity Date.

Asset-Based Administration Charge.  We will deduct a daily asset-based administration charge from the assets of the Variable Account equal to an annual rate of 0.15%.  This translates to a daily rate of 0.0004110%.  The purpose of this charge is to reimburse us for costs associated with administration of the Contract amounts allocated to the Variable Account.  This charge does not apply after the Maturity Date.

MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE

We will deduct a daily mortality and expense risk charge from the assets of the Variable Account.  This charge will be equal to an annual rate of 1.25%.  This translates to a daily rate of 0.0034247%.  The purpose of this charge is to compensate us for assuming mortality and expense risks.  This charge does not apply after the Maturity Date.

The mortality risk we assume is that Annuitants may live for a longer period of time than estimated when we established the guarantees in the Contract.  Because of these guarantees, we provide each payee with the assurance that longevity will not have an adverse effect on the annuity payments received.  The mortality risk we assume also includes a guarantee to pay a death benefit if the Annuitant dies before the Maturity Date.  The expense risk we assume is the risk that the

52

annual administration fee, asset-based administration charge, and transfer processing fee may be insufficient to cover actual future expenses.

If the mortality and expense risk charge is not enough to cover the actual cost of the mortality and expense risks we undertake, we will bear the loss.  If the amount of such charges proves more than enough, we will keep the excess and this amount will be available for any proper corporate purpose including financing of distribution expenses.

MONTHLY GUARANTEED MINIMUM DEATH BENEFIT EXPENSE CHARGE

If a Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option other than the base provision is selected, there is an additional charge.  The amount of this charge varies depending on the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option you have elected, as follows:

· Base Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option:  no additional charge.

· Annual Ratchet Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option:  A Monthly charge of 0.01665% of the Variable Account Value is deducted from the Variable Account Value on the Monthly Anniversary Date.  This charge equals 0.20% of the Variable Account Value on an annualized basis.

· Enhanced Combination Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option:  A monthly charge of 0.02912% of Variable Account Value is deducted from the Variable Account Value on the Monthly Anniversary Date.  This charge equals 0.35% of Variable Account Value on an annualized basis.

It is possible that the Internal Revenue Service may take a position that death benefit option charges are deemed to be taxable distributions to you.  Although we do not believe that a death benefit option charge under the Contract should be treated as a taxable withdrawal, you should consult your tax advisor prior to selecting such a death benefit option under the Contract.

GUARANTEED MINIMUM WITHDRAWAL BENEFIT CHARGE

We charge an additional monthly charge on the Monthly Anniversary Day for the GMWB rider.  The GMWB rider charge is equal to 0.10% (currently 0.079% for GMWB riders elected on and after January 1, 2009 and for GMWB riders elected before January 1, 2009 that have stepped-up since January 1, 2009) multiplied by the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance.  We deduct the rider charge from each Subaccount in the same proportion that the value of each Subaccount is to the Contract Value.  We do not deduct the rider charge during the GMWB rider’s Settlement Phase.

PREMIUM TAXES

Various states and other governmental entities levy a premium tax, currently ranging up to 3.5%, on annuity contracts issued by insurance companies.  Premium tax rates may change from time to time by legislative and other governmental action.  In addition, other governmental units within a state may levy such taxes.

If premium taxes are applicable, we will deduct them upon surrender or when we apply the Contract Proceeds to a payment option or a lump sum payment.

REDUCED CHARGES FOR ELIGIBLE GROUPS

We may reduce the surrender charges and/or administration charges for Contracts issued to a class of associated individuals or to a trustee, employer or similar entity.  We may reduce these charges if we anticipate that the sales to the members of the class will result in lower than normal sales or administrative expenses.  We will make any reductions in accordance with our rules in effect at the time of the application.  The factors we will consider in determining the eligibility of a particular group and the level of the reduction are as follows:

· nature of the association and its organizational framework;

· method by which sales will be made to the members of the class;

· facility with which premiums will be collected from the associated individuals;

· association’s capabilities with respect to administrative tasks;

· anticipated persistency of the Contract;

· size of the class of associated individuals;

· number of years the association has been in existence; and

· any other such circumstances which justify a reduction in sales or administrative expenses.

53

Any reduction will be reasonable, will apply uniformly to all prospective Contract purchases in the class and will not be unfairly discriminatory to the interests of any Owner.

OTHER TAXES

We do not currently assess a charge against the Variable Account for federal income taxes.  We may make such a charge in the future if income or gains within the Variable Account result in any federal income tax liability to us.  We may also deduct charges for other taxes attributable to the Variable Account.

LOAN INTEREST CHARGE

If a Contract is a section 403(b) TSA Qualified Contract, Contract loans may be available if permitted by an employer’s section 403(b) plan.  A loan interest charge is assessed by crediting a lower rate on amounts held in the loan account as collateral than the rate charged on the loan amount.  The maximum amount of interest we charge on a loan is 8% annually of the loan amount.  The net loan interest charge is the difference between the amount charged on any loan amount and the amount credited to the loan account (3% annually).

INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER EXPENSES OF THE FUNDS

The funds deduct investment advisory fees and other expenses.  The value of the net assets of each Subaccount already reflects the investment advisory fees and other expenses incurred by the corresponding Fund in which the Subaccount invests.  This means that these charges are deducted before we calculate Subaccount values.  These charges are not directly deducted from your Contract Value.  See the prospectuses for the Funds for more information about the investment advisory fees and other expenses.

PAYMENT OPTIONS

The Contract offers a variety of ways, in addition to a lump sum, for you to receive Proceeds payable under the Contract.  Payment options are available for use with various types of Proceeds, such as surrender, death or maturity.  We summarize these payment options below.  All of these options are forms of fixed-benefit annuities which do not vary with the investment performance of a separate account.

The Contract ends on the Maturity Date and we will pay the Proceeds to the payee under the payment option selected.  The amount we apply to the payment option will vary depending upon which payment option you select.  If you elect a Life Payment Option (Options 4 and 5 described below), we will apply the full Contract Value to that option.  If you elect a Non-Life Payment Option (Options 1, 2, and 3 described below) or you have elected to receive a lump sum payment, we will apply the Cash Surrender Value.  If you have not filed an election of a payment option with us on the Maturity Date, we will pay the Contract Proceeds as a life annuity with payments guaranteed for ten years.

You may also apply Contract Proceeds under a payment option prior to the Maturity Date.  If you elect a Life Payment Option, we will apply the full Contract Value.  If you elect a Non-Life Payment Option or a lump sum payment, we will apply the Cash Surrender Value.

The Beneficiary may also apply a death benefit (upon the Annuitant’s death) under a payment option.

Naming different persons as Owner and Annuitant can affect whether the death benefit is payable, the amount of the benefit, and who will receive it.  Use care when naming Owners, Annuitants and Beneficiaries, and consult your registered representative if you have questions.

We will deduct any premium tax applicable from Proceeds at the time payments start.  In order for us to pay Proceeds under a payment option or a lump sum, the Contract must be surrendered.

We describe the payment options available below.  The term "payee" means a person who is entitled to receive payment under that option.

If we have options or rates available on a more favorable basis than those guaranteed at the time a payment option is elected, the more favorable benefits will apply.

54

ELECTION OF OPTIONS

You may elect, revoke or change an option at any time before the Maturity Date while the Annuitant is living.  If the payee is not the Owner, we must provide our consent for the election of a payment option.  If an election is not in effect at the Annuitant's death or if payment is to be made in one sum under an existing election, the Beneficiary may elect one of the options after the Annuitant’s death.

An election of a payment option and any revocation or change must be made by Written Notice.  Proceeds of at least $2,000 are required for all payment options.  You may not elect an option if any periodic payment under the election would be less than $50.  We may make payments less frequently so that each payment is at least $50.  Subject to this condition, we will make payments annually or monthly at the end of such period.

DESCRIPTION OF OPTIONS

Option 1: Interest Payments. We will make guaranteed interest payments to the payee annually or monthly as elected.  We will pay interest on the Proceeds at the guaranteed rate per year.  We may pay additional interest annually.  The Proceeds and any unpaid interest may be withdrawn in full at any time.

Option 2: Installments of a Specified Amount. We will make annual or monthly payments until the Proceeds plus interest are fully paid.  We will pay interest on the Proceeds at the guaranteed rate per year.  We may pay additional interest.  The present value of any unpaid installments may be withdrawn at any time.

Option 3: Installments for a Specified Period. We will pay the Proceeds in equal annual or monthly payments for a specified number of years.  We will pay interest on the Proceeds at the guaranteed rate per year.  We may also pay additional interest.  The present value of any unpaid installments may be withdrawn at any time.

Option 4: Life Income. We will pay an income during the payee's lifetime.  A minimum guaranteed payment period may be chosen.  Another form of minimum guaranteed payment period is the installment refund option under which we will make payments until the total income payments received equal the Proceeds applied.

Option 5: Joint and Survivor Income. We will pay an income during the lifetime of two persons and will continue to pay an income as long as either person is living.  A minimum guaranteed payment period of ten years may be chosen.

Choice of Options: You may choose an option by Written Notice during the Annuitant’s lifetime.  If an option for payment of Proceeds is not in effect at the Annuitant’s death, the Beneficiary may make a choice.

Options 1, 2, and 3 may not satisfy the minimum required distribution requirements for a Qualified Contract.  Consult a tax adviser.  If you elect options 2 or 3 and withdraw the unpaid installments, our obligations under the payment option will end.

YIELDS AND TOTAL RETURNS

YIELDS

From time to time, we may advertise or include in sales literature yields, effective yields and total returns for the Subaccounts.  These figures are based on historical earnings and do not indicate or project future performance.  Each Subaccount may, from time to time, advertise or include in sales literature performance relative to certain performance rankings and indices compiled by independent organizations.  More detailed information as to the calculation of performance information, as well as comparisons with unmanaged market indices, appears in the Statement of Additional Information.

Effective yields and total returns for the Subaccounts are based on the investment performance of the corresponding Portfolio of the Funds.  The Funds' performance reflects the Funds' expenses.  (See the prospectuses for the Funds)

The yield of the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount refers to the annualized income generated by an investment in the Subaccount over a specified seven-day period.  The yield is calculated by assuming that the income generated for that seven-day period is generated each seven-day period over a 52-week period and is shown as a percentage of the investment.  The effective yield is calculated similarly but, when annualized, the income earned by an investment in the Subaccount is assumed to be reinvested.  The effective yield will be slightly higher than the yield because of the compounding effect of this assumed reinvestment.

55

The yield of a Subaccount (except the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount) refers to the annualized income generated by an investment in the Subaccount over a specified 30-day or one-month period.  The yield is calculated by assuming that the income generated by the investment during that 30-day or one-month period is generated each period over a 12-month period and is shown as a percentage of the investment.

TOTAL RETURNS

Standard Subaccount Average Annual Total Return. The average annual total return of a Subaccount refers to return quotations assuming an investment under a Contract has been held in the Subaccount for various periods of time, each beginning with a period measured from the date the Subaccount commenced operations.  When a Subaccount has been in operation for one, five, and ten years, respectively, the total return for these periods will be provided.

The average annual total return quotations represent the average annual compounded rates of return that would equate an initial investment of $10,000 under a Contract to the redemption value of that investment as of the last day of each of the periods for which standard subaccount average annual total return quotations are provided.  Standard subaccount average annual total return information shows the average percentage change in the value of an investment in the Subaccount from the beginning date of the measuring period to the end of that period.  This standardized average annual total return reflects all historical investment results, less all charges and deductions applied against the Subaccount (including any surrender charge that would apply if you terminated the Contract at the end of each period indicated, but excluding any deductions for premium taxes).

Adjusted Historic Portfolio Average Annual Total Returns. In addition to the standard version described above, other total return performance information computed on two different bases may be used in advertisements.  For periods prior to the date the Variable Account commenced operations, performance information for Contracts funded by the Subaccounts will be calculated based on the performance of the Funds' Portfolios and the assumption that the Subaccounts were in existence for the same periods as those indicated for the Funds' Portfolios, with the level of Contract charges that were in effect at the inception of the Subaccounts for the Contracts.  Adjusted historic portfolio average annual total return information may be presented, computed on the same basis as described above, except deductions will not include the surrender charge.  In addition, we may from time to time disclose standard subaccount average annual total return in non-standard formats and cumulative total return for Contracts funded by Subaccounts.

We will only disclose other total returns if we also disclose the standard average annual total returns for the required periods.  For additional information regarding the calculation of performance data, please refer to the Statement of Additional Information.

FEDERAL TAX STATUS

INTRODUCTION

The following discussion is general in nature and is not intended as tax advice.  Each person concerned should consult a competent tax adviser.  No attempt is made to consider any applicable state or other income tax laws, any state and local estate or inheritance tax, or other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of distributions under a Contract.

When you invest in an annuity contract, you usually do not pay taxes on your investment gains until you withdraw the money -- generally for retirement purposes.  If you invest in a variable annuity as part of a pension plan or employer-sponsored retirement program, your Contract is called a Qualified Contract.  If your annuity is independent of any formal retirement or pension plan, it is termed a Non-Qualified Contract.  The tax rules applicable to Qualified Contracts vary according to the type of retirement plan and the terms and conditions of the plan.

TAXATION OF NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACTS

Non-Natural Person.  If a non-natural person (e.g., a corporation or a trust) owns a Non-Qualified Contract, the taxpayer generally must include in income any annual increases of the Contract Value.  There are some exceptions to this rule and a prospective Owner that is not a natural person should discuss these with a tax adviser.

The following discussion generally applies to Contracts owned by natural persons.

Withdrawals.  When a withdrawal from a Non-Qualified Contract occurs, 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 immediately before the

56

distribution over the Owner’s investment in the Contract (generally, the premiums or other consideration paid for the Contract, reduced by any amount previously distributed from the Contract that was not subject to tax) at that time.  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 Owner’s investment in the Contract.

Penalty Tax on Certain Withdrawals.  In the case of a distribution from a Non-Qualified Contract, there may be imposed a federal tax penalty equal to 10% of the amount treated as income.  In general, however, there is no penalty on distributions:

· made on or after the taxpayer reaches age 59½;

· made on or after the death of an Owner;

· attributable to the taxpayer’s becoming disabled; or

· made as part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments for the life (or life expectancy) of the taxpayer or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the taxpayer and his or her designated Beneficiary.

Other exceptions may be applicable under certain circumstances and special rules may be applicable in connection with the exceptions enumerated above.  You should consult a tax adviser with regard to exceptions from the penalty tax.  A similar penalty tax, and additional exceptions, may apply to Qualified Contracts.

Medicare Tax. Beginning in 2013, distributions from non-qualified annuity contracts will be considered "investment income" for purposes of the newly enacted Medicare tax on investment income. Thus, in certain circumstances, a 3.8% tax may be applied to some or all of the taxable portion of distributions (e.g. earnings) to individuals whose income exceeds certain threshold amounts.  Please consult a tax advisor for more information.

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.

Partial Annuitization.  Under a new tax provision enacted in 2010, if part of an annuity contract’s value is applied to an annuity option that provides payments for one or more lives and for a period of at least ten years, those payments may be taxed as annuity payments instead of withdrawals.  None of the payment options under the Contract is intended to qualify for this “partial annuitization” treatment and, if you apply only part of the value of the Contract to a payment option, we will treat those payments as withdrawals for tax purposes.

Death Benefit Options.  It is possible that the Internal Revenue Service may take a position that death benefit option charges are deemed to be taxable distributions to you.  Although we do not believe that a death benefit option charge under the Contract should be treated as a taxable withdrawal, you should consult your tax advisor prior to selecting such a death benefit option under the Contract.

Taxation of Death Benefit Proceeds.  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 the 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.

Transfers, Assignments or Exchanges of a Contract.  A transfer or assignment of ownership of a Contract, the designation of an Annuitant other than the owner, the selection of certain Maturity Dates, or the exchange of a Contract may result in certain tax consequences to you that are not discussed herein.  An Owner contemplating any such transfer, assignment or exchange should consult a tax adviser as to the tax consequences.

Withholding.  Annuity distributions are generally subject to withholding for the recipient’s federal income tax liability.  Recipients can generally elect, however, not to have tax withheld from distributions.

Multiple Contracts.  All non-qualified deferred annuity contracts that are issued by us (or our affiliates) to the same Owner during any calendar year are treated as one annuity contract for purposes of determining the amount includible in such Owner’s income when a taxable distribution occurs.

57

Further Information.  We believe that the Contracts will qualify as annuity contracts for federal income tax purposes and the above discussion is based on that assumption.  Further details can be found in the Statement of Additional Information under the heading “Tax Status of the Contracts.”

TAXATION OF QUALIFIED CONTRACTS

The tax rules applicable to Qualified Contracts vary according to the type of retirement plan and the terms and conditions of the plan.  Your rights under a Qualified Contract may be subject to the terms of the retirement plan itself, regardless of the terms of the Qualified Contract.  Adverse tax consequences may result if you do not ensure that contributions, distributions and other transactions with respect to the Contract comply with the law.

In the case of a withdrawal under a Qualified Contract, a ratable portion of the amount received is taxable, generally based on the ratio of the “investment in the contract” to the individual’s total account balance or accrued benefit under the retirement plan.  The “investment in the contract” generally equals the amount of any non-deductible premiums paid by or on behalf of any individual.  In many cases, the “investment in the contract” under a Qualified Contract can be zero.

Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), as defined in sections 219 and 408 of the Code, permit individuals to make annual contributions in 2014 of up to the lesser of $5,500 (or $6,500 if you are age 50 or over) or the amount of compensation includible in the individual’s gross income for the year.  The contributions may be deductible in whole or in part, depending on the individual’s income.  Distributions from certain pension plans may be “rolled over” into an IRA on a tax-deferred basis without regard to these limits.  Amounts in the IRA (other than nondeductible contributions) are taxed when distributed from the IRA.  A 10% penalty tax generally applies to distributions made before age 59½, unless certain exceptions apply.

The Internal Revenue Service has not reviewed the Contract for qualification as an IRA, and has not addressed in a ruling of general applicability whether a death benefit provision such as the optional enhanced death benefit provisions in the Contract comports with IRA qualification requirements.  The value of the enhanced death benefits may need to be considered in calculating minimum required distributions.

SIMPLE IRAs permit certain small employers to establish SIMPLE plans as provided by section 408(p) of the Code, under which employees may elect to defer to a SIMPLE IRA a percentage of compensation, in 2014 up to $12,000 (or $14,500 if you are age 50 or over).  The sponsoring employer is required to make matching or non-elective contributions on behalf of employees.  Distributions from SIMPLE IRAs are subject to the same restrictions that apply to IRA distributions and are taxed as ordinary income.  Subject to certain exceptions, premature distributions prior to age 59½ are subject to a 10% penalty tax, which is increased to 25% if the distribution occurs within the first two years after the commencement of the employee’s participation in the plan.

Roth IRAs, as described in Code section 408A, permit certain eligible individuals to make non-deductible contributions to a Roth IRA in cash or as a rollover or transfer from another Roth IRA or other IRA.  A conversion of an IRA to a Roth IRA is generally subject to tax.  The Owner may wish to consult a tax adviser before combining any converted amounts with any other Roth IRA contributions, including any other conversion amounts from other tax years.  Distributions from a Roth IRA generally are not taxed, except that, once aggregate distributions exceed contributions to the Roth IRA, income tax and a 10% penalty tax may apply to distributions made (1) before age 59½ (subject to certain exceptions) or (2) during the five taxable years starting with the year in which the first contribution is made to any Roth IRA.

A 10% penalty tax may apply to amounts attributable to a conversion from an IRA if they are distributed during the five taxable years beginning in the year in which the conversion was made.

Corporate pension and profit-sharing plans under section 401(a) of the Code allow corporate employers to establish various types of retirement plans for employees, and self-employed individuals to establish qualified plans for themselves and their employees.  Adverse tax consequences to the retirement plan, the participant, or both, may result if the Contract is transferred to any individual as a means to provide benefit payments, unless the plan complies with all the requirements applicable to such benefits prior to transferring the Contract.  A 10% penalty tax generally applies to distributions made before age 59½, unless certain exceptions apply.  The Contract includes a death benefit that in some cases may exceed the greater of the premium payments or the Contract Value.  The death benefit could be characterized as an incidental benefit, the amount of which is limited in any pension or profit-sharing plan.  Because the death benefit may exceed this limitation, employers using the Contract in connection with such plans should contact their tax adviser.

Tax Sheltered Annuities under section 403(b) of the Code allow 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.

58

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 59½, severance from employment, death or disability.  Salary reduction contributions may also be distributed upon hardship, but would generally be subject to penalties.  For Contracts issued after 2008, amounts attributable to non-elective contributions may be subject to distribution restrictions specified in the employer’s section 403(b) plan.  A 10% penalty tax generally applies to distributions made before age 59½, unless certain exceptions apply.  The Contract includes a death benefit that in some cases may exceed the greater of the premium payments or the Contract Value.  The death benefit could be characterized as an incidental benefit, the amount of which is limited in any tax-sheltered annuity under section 403(b).  Because the death benefit may exceed this limitation, employers using the Contract in connection with such plans should contact their tax adviser.  If your Contract was issued pursuant to a section 403(b) plan, starting January 1, 2009 we generally are required to confirm, with your section 403(b) plan sponsor or otherwise, that surrenders, loans or transfers you request comply with applicable tax requirements and to decline requests that are not in compliance. We will defer such payments you request until all information required under the tax law has been received.  By requesting a surrender, loan or transfer, you consent to the sharing of confidential information about you, the policy, and transactions under the policy and any other section 403(b) contracts or accounts you have under the section 403(b) plan among us, your employer or plan sponsor, any plan administrator or recordkeeper, and other product providers.

Other Tax Issues.  Qualified Contracts have minimum distribution rules that govern the timing and amount of distributions.  You should refer to your retirement plan, adoption agreement, or consult a tax adviser for more information about these distribution rules.

Distributions from Qualified Contracts generally are subject to withholding for the Owner’s federal income tax liability.  The withholding rate varies according to the type of distribution and the Owner’s tax status.  The Owner will be provided the opportunity to elect not to have tax withheld from distributions.

Taxable “eligible rollover distributions” from section 401(a) plans and section 403(b) annuities are subject to a mandatory federal income tax withholding of 20%.  An eligible rollover distribution is any distribution from such a plan, except certain distributions such as distributions required by the Code, to an employee (or employee’s spouse or former spouse as Beneficiary or alternate payee), distributions in a specified annuity form, or hardships distributions.  The 20% withholding does not apply, however, to nontaxable distributions or if (i) the employee (or employee’s spouse or former spouse as beneficiary or alternate payee) chooses a “direct rollover” from the plan to a tax-qualified plan, IRA, Roth IRA or tax sheltered annuity or to a governmental 457 plan that agrees to separately account for rollover contributions; or (ii) a non-spouse beneficiary chooses a “direct rollover” from the plan to an IRA established by the direct rollover.

FEDERAL ESTATE, GIFT AND GENERATION-SKIPPING TAXES

While no attempt is being made to discuss in detail the federal estate tax implications of the Contract, a purchaser should keep in mind that the value of an annuity contract owned by a decedent and payable to a Beneficiary by virtue of surviving the decedent is included in the decedent’s gross estate.  Depending on the terms of the annuity contract, the value of the annuity included in the gross estate may be the value of the lump sum payment payable to the designated Beneficiary or the actuarial value of the payments to be received by the Beneficiary.  Consult an estate-planning adviser for more information.

Under certain circumstances, the Code may impose a generation-skipping transfer tax (”GST”) when all or part of an annuity contract is transferred to, or a death benefit is paid to, an individual two or more generations younger than the Owner.  Regulations issued under the Code may require us to deduct the tax from your Contract, or from any applicable payment, and pay it directly to the IRS.

For 2014, the federal estate tax, gift tax and GST tax exemptions and maximum rates are $5,340,000 and 40%, respectively.

The potential application of these taxes underscores the importance of seeking guidance from a qualified adviser to help ensure that your estate plan adequately addresses your needs and those of your beneficiaries under all possible scenarios.

ANNUITY PURCHASES BY NONRESIDENT ALIENS AND FOREIGN CORPORATIONS

The discussion above provides general information regarding U.S. federal income tax consequences to annuity purchasers that are U.S. citizens or residents.  Purchasers that are not U.S. citizens or residents will generally be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax on taxable distributions from annuity contracts at a 30% rate, unless a lower treaty rate applies.  In addition, such purchasers may be subject to state and/or municipal taxes and taxes that may be imposed by

59

the purchaser’s country of citizenship or residence.  Additional withholding may occur with respect to entity purchasers (including foreign corporations, partnerships, and trusts) that are not U.S. residents.  Prospective purchasers are advised to consult with a qualified tax adviser regarding U.S. state, and foreign taxation with respect to an annuity contract purchase.

ANNUITY PURCHASES BY RESIDENTS OF PUERTO RICO

In Rev. Rul. 2004-75, 2004-31 I.R.B. 109, the Internal Revenue Service recently announced that income received by residents of Puerto Rico under life insurance or annuity contracts issued by a Puerto Rico branch of a United States life insurance company is U.S.-source income that is generally subject to United States Federal income tax.

POSSIBLE TAX LAW CHANGES

Although the likelihood of legislative changes is uncertain, there is always the possibility that the tax treatment of the Contract could change by legislation or otherwise.  Consult a tax adviser with respect to legislative developments and their effect on the Contract.  We have the right to modify the Contract in response to legislative changes that could otherwise diminish the favorable tax treatment that Contract Owners currently receive.  We make no guarantee regarding the tax status of any Contract and do not intend the above discussion as tax advice.

FOREIGN TAX CREDITS

We may benefit from any foreign tax credits attributable to taxes paid by certain Funds to foreign jurisdictions to the extent permitted under federal tax law.

SALE OF THE CONTRACTS

We have entered into an Underwriting Agreement with our affiliate, Sunset Financial Services, Inc., for the distribution and sale of the Contracts.  Sunset Financial sells the Contracts through its registered representatives.  Sunset Financial also may enter into selling agreements with other broker-dealers that in turn may sell the Contracts through their registered representatives.

We pay commissions to Sunset Financial for the sale of the Contracts by its registered representatives as well as selling firms.  Sunset Financial will receive commissions of up to 6.00% of premiums paid.  In addition, we may pay an asset-based commission of an amount up to 0.70% in years two and beyond.  Additional amounts may be paid in certain circumstances.  Sunset Financial may pay additional compensation from its own resources to broker-dealers based on the level of Contract sales or premium payments.  Sunset Financial does not retain any override as principal underwriter for the Contracts.  However, under the Distribution Agreement with Sunset Financial, we pay the following sales expenses:  registered representative training allowances; deferred compensation and insurance benefits of registered persons; advertising expenses; and all other expenses of distributing the Contracts.  We also pay for Sunset Financial’s operating and other expenses.

Sunset Financial registered representatives and their managers are eligible for various cash benefits, such as bonuses, insurance benefits and financing arrangements, and non-cash compensation programs that Kansas City Life offers.  These programs include conferences, seminars, meals, entertainment, payment for travel, lodging and entertainment, prizes, and awards, subject to applicable regulatory requirements.  Sales of the Contracts may help registered representatives and their managers qualify for such benefits.  Because they are also appointed insurance agents of Kansas City Life, Sunset Financial registered representatives may receive other payments from Kansas City Life for services that do not directly involve the sale of the Contracts, including payments made for the recruitment and training of personnel, production of promotional literature, and similar services.

Other selling broker-dealers may share commissions and additional amounts received for sales of the Contracts with their registered representatives in accordance with their programs for compensating registered representatives.  These programs may also include other types of cash and non-cash compensation and other benefits.  Ask your registered representative for further information about what your registered representative and the selling firm for which he or she works may receive in connection with your purchase of a Contract.

American Century® Variable Portfolios II, Inc., Columbia Funds Series Trust I, Columbia Funds Series Trust II, Federated Insurance Series, Fidelity® Variable Insurance Products Contrafund® Portfolio, Fidelity® Variable Insurance Products, and Franklin Templeton Variable Insurance Products Trust each have adopted a Distribution Plan in connection with its 12b-1 shares, and each, under its respectiveagreement with Sunset Financial, currently pays Sunset Financial fees in consideration of distribution services provided and expenses incurred in the performance of Sunset Financial’s obligations under such agreements.  All or some of these payments may be passed on to selling firms that have entered into a selling

60

agreement with Sunset Financial.  The Distribution Plans have been adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which allows funds to pay fees to those who sell and distribute fund shares out of fund assets.  Under the Distribution Plan, fees ranging up to 0.25% of Variable Account assets invested in the Funds are paid to Sunset Financial for its distribution-related services and expenses under such agreement.

Commissions and other incentives or payment described above are not charged directly to Owners or the Variable Account.  However, commissions and other incentives or payments described above are reflected in the fees and charges that Owners do pay directly or indirectly.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The life insurance industry, including Kansas City Life, has been subject to an increase in litigation in recent years.  Such litigation has been pursued on behalf of purported classes of policyholders and other claims and legal actions in jurisdictions where juries often award punitive damages, which are grossly disproportionate to actual damages.

Although no assurances can be given and no determinations can be made at this time, management believes that the ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these claims and actions, would have no material effect on the Company’s business, results of operations or financial position.

COMPANY HOLIDAYS

We are closed on the days that the New York Stock Exchange is closed.  Currently the New York Stock Exchange is closed on the following holidays: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, President's Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.  The New York Stock Exchange recognizes holidays that fall on a Saturday on the previous Friday.  We will recognize holidays that fall on a Sunday on the following Monday.

CHANGE OF ADDRESS NOTIFICATION

To protect you from fraud and theft, Kansas City Life may verify any changes you request by sending a confirmation of the change to both your old and new addresses.  Kansas City Life may also call you to verify the change of address.

APPENDIX B - GMWB RIDER EXAMPLES

The following examples provide hypothetical illustrations of the benefits provided under the GMWB rider. These illustrations are not representative of future performance under your Contract.  Actual values may be higher or lower than the amounts shown.

Example 1.Assume the rider was issued on the Contract Date, and assume a single premium of $100,000 at Covered Person’s age 55, no additional premiums are paid, and withdrawals equal to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount are taken beginning in year 11.  Also assume that the Contract Value is less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance at the eligible step-up Dates, so there is no step-up and the Covered Person survives at least 31 years from the Rider Effective Date.

Contract Year	Premiums	Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount	Lifetime Income Amount	Withdrawal Taken	Bonus	Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance
1	$100,000	$5,000A	N/A	$0	$5,000B	$100,000A
2	0	5,250	N/A	0	5,000	105,000C
3	0	5,500	N/A	0	5,000	110,000
4	0	5,750	N/A	0	5,000	115,000

6	0	6,250	N/A	0	5,000	125,000
7	0	6,500	N/A	0	5,000	130,000
8	0	6,750	N/A	0	5,000	135,000
9	0	7,000	N/A	0	5,000	140,000

13	0	7,500	7,500	7,500	0	135,000
14	0	7,500	7,500	7,500	0	127,500

AThe initial Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is equal to the initial payment of $100,000.  The initial Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount is equal to 5% of the initial Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance (0.05 x $100,000 = $5,000).

BThere is no withdrawal during the first Contract Year so a bonus will be added to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance. The bonus amount is equal to 5% of the total premiums to date (0.05 x $100,000 = $5,000).

CFollowing a bonus, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance and the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount are recalculated.  The new Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is equal to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance before the bonus increased by the amount of the bonus ($100,000 + $5,000 = $105,000).  The Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount is equal to the greater of (a) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount prior to the bonus ($5,000) or 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance after the bonus (0.05 X $105,000 = $5,250).

DThe Lifetime Income Amount is calculated on the Contract Anniversary after the Covered Person’s 65th birthday.  The Lifetime Income Amount is initially equal to 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance at that time (0.05 X $150,000 = $7,500).  As long as you limit your future annual withdrawals to the Lifetime Income Amount of $7,500, the GMWB guarantees you annual payments of that amount for the rest of your life, no matter how long you live, even after you have recovered your investments in the Contract and even if your Contract Value reduces to zero.

77

Example2. Assume the rider was issued on the Contract Date, and assume an initial premium of $100,000 at Covered Person’s age 65, an additional premium of $10,000 is made at the beginning of the Contract Year 2, a withdrawal equal to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount is taken in Contract Year 3, no withdrawals are taken in Contract Years 1, 2, 4, 5 (resulting in bonuses in those years). Also assume that the Contract Value is less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance at the eligible step-up dates, so there is no step-up.

Contract Year	Premiums	Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount	Lifetime Income Amount	Withdrawal Taken	Bonus	Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance
1	$100,000	$5,000	$5,000	$0	$5,000	$100,000
2	10,000A	5,750A	5,750	0	5,500B	115,000
3	0	6,025	6,025	6,025C	0D	120,500
4	0	6,025	6,025	0	5,500	114,475C
5	0	6,025	6,025	0	5,500	119,975

AThere is an additional premium at the beginning of the second Contract Year.  Prior to that premium, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount is $5,250, as in Example 1 above.  Following the additional premium, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount is calculated as the lesser of (a) 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance immediately after the premium (.05 X (105,000 + 10,000) = $5,750) or (b) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount immediately prior to the premium plus 5% of the premium ($5,250 + (0.05 X $10,000)) = $5,750).

BThere is no withdrawal during the second Contract Year so a bonus will be added to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance.  The bonus is equal to 5% of the total premiums paid to date (0.05 X $110,000 = $5,500).

CThere is a withdrawal equal to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount $6,025 in year 3. This withdrawal does not exceed the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount so the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount is not reset, but the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is reduced by the amount of the withdrawal ($120,500 - $6,025 = $114,475).

DNo bonus is payable in any year that a withdrawal is taken.

78

Example3.  Assume a single premium of $100,000 at age 63 with a Rider Effective Date of June 1, 2011, no additional premiums are made, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance steps-up at the end of Contract Year 3, withdrawals equal to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount are taken in Contract Years 1, 2, 3 and 4 and a withdrawal exceeding the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount is taken at the end of Contract Year 5 which results in a reset. Since withdrawals are taken every year, there are no bonuses.

Contract Year	Premiums	Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount	Lifetime Income Amount	Withdrawal Taken	Hypothetical Contract Value	Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance
1	$100,000	$5,000	N/A	$5,000	$102,000	$100,000
2	0	5,000	N/A	5,000	103,828	95,000
3	0	5,000	$4,500A	5,000	105,781B	90,000
4	0	5,289C	5,289C	5,289	94,946	105,781B
5	0	5,289	5,289	10,000D	79,898	100,492
6	0	3,995D	3,995D	3,995	75,213	79,898D

AThe Lifetime Income Amount is calculated on the Contract Anniversary after the Covered Person’s 65th birthday. The Lifetime Income Amount is equal to 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance on that Contract Anniversary (0.05 X $90,000 = $4,500). In this example, since withdrawals were taken prior to the Contract Anniversary following the Contract Year in which the Covered Person has reached age 65, the initial Lifetime Income Amount is less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount.

BAt the end of Contract Year 3, the Contract Value in this example, $105,781 is greater than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance ($90,000 - $5,000 = $85,000). The Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance will step-up to equal the Contract Value of $105,781.

CFollowing the Step-up of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount is recalculated as the greater of (a) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount prior to the Step-up ($5,000) or (b) 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance after the Step-up (0.05 X $105,781 = $5,289). The Lifetime Income Amount is also recalculated as the greater of (a) the Lifetime Income Amount prior to the Step-up ($4,500) or (b) 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance after the Step-up (0.05 X $105,781 = $5,289).

DAt the end of year 5, there is a withdrawal of $10,000, which is greater than both the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and the Lifetime Income Amount.  Since this is an Excess Withdrawal, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance will be reset to the lesser of (a) the Contract Value after the withdrawal ($79,898) or (b) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance prior to the withdrawal minus the amount of the withdrawal ($100,492 - $10,000 = $90,492). Since the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance was reset, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and the Lifetime Income Amount will both be reset.  The Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount will equal the lesser of (a) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount prior to the withdrawal ($5,289) or (b) 5% of the greater of the Contract Value after the withdrawal or the new Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance Value (0.05 X $79,898 = $3,995). The Lifetime Income Amount will equal the lesser of (a) the Lifetime Income Amount prior to the withdrawal ($5,289) or (b) 5% of the greater of the Contract Value after the withdrawal or the new Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance Value (0.05 X $79,898 = $3,995).

79

Example4.  Assume the rider was issued on the Contract Date, June 1, 2011, and assume a single premium of $50,000 at Covered Person’s age 50, no additional premiums are paid, a withdrawal of $10,000 is taken at the end of Contract Year 5 and no other withdrawals are taken.

Contract Year	Premiums	Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount	Lifetime Income Amount	Withdrawal Taken	Bonus	Hypothetical Contract Value	Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance
1	$50,000	$2,500	N/A	$0	$2,500	$51,870	$50,000
2	0	2,625	N/A	0	2,500	50,003	52,500
3	0	2,750	N/A	0	2,500	52,961A	55,000
4	0	2,875	N/A	0	2,500	54,311	57,500
5	0	3,000	N/A	10,000B	0	46,748B	60,000
6	0	2,337B	N/A	0	2,337C	45,741A	46,748B
7	0	2,454	N/A	0	2,337	49,579	49,085
8	0	2,571	N/A	0	2,337	49,280	51,422
9	0	2,687	N/A	0	2,337	52,609A	53,759
10	0	2,804	N/A	0	2,337	55,031A	56,096

AThe Contract Value on the eligible step-up dates shown (3rd, 6th, 9th, 10th Contract Anniversaries), is less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance so no step-up occurs.

BAt the end of year 5, there is a withdrawal of $10,000.  Since this is an Excess Withdrawal, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance will be reset to the lesser of (a) the Contract Value after the withdrawal ($46,748) or (b) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance prior to the withdrawal minus the amount of the withdrawal ($60,000 - $10,000 = $50,000). Since the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance was reset, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount will be reset.  The Lifetime Income Amount has not been calculated yet so it will not be reset.  The Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount will equal the lesser of (a) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount prior to the withdrawal ($3,000) or (b) 5% of the greater of the Contract Value after the withdrawal or the new Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance (0.05 X $46,748 = $2,337).

CThere is no withdrawal during the sixth Contract Year so a bonus will be added to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance.  Because a reset has occurred due to an Excess Withdrawal, the bonus will be 5% of the previously stepped-up or reset Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance (0.05 X $46,748 = $2,337).

80

Example5.  Assume the rider was issued on the Contract Date, and assume a single premium of $200,000 at Covered Person’s age 75, no additional premiums are paid, and withdrawals equal to the Lifetime Income Amount begin in year 1.  Since withdrawals are taken every year, there are no bonuses.

ADuring year 12, the Lifetime Income Amount withdrawal causes the Contract Value to reduce to zero.  At that time, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance and the Lifetime Income Amount are both greater than zero and the Contract enters the Settlement Phase.  No additional premiums will be accepted and no rider charge will be deducted.  All other rights and benefits under the Contract terminate.

BThe Lifetime Income Amount continues to be available as long as the Covered Person remains alive, even when the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance reduces to zero.

81

Example6.  Assume the rider was issued on the Contract Date, and assume a single premium of $100,000 at Covered Person’s age 55, no additional premiums are paid, and withdrawals equal to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount are taken beginning in year 5.  Also assume that the Contract Value is less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance at the eligible step-up dates, so there is no step-up.

15	0	6,000	4,200	4,200	0	67,200

A There is no withdrawal during the first five Contract Years so a bonus will be added to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance.  The bonus is equal to 5% of the total premiums paid to date (0.05 X $100,000 = $5,000).

BThere are withdrawals equal to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount ($6,000) beginning in year 5. These withdrawals do not exceed the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount so the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount is not reset, but the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance is reduced by the amount of the withdrawal ($120,000 - $6,000 = $114,000).

CThe Lifetime Income Amount is calculated on the Contract Anniversary after the Covered Person’s 65th birthday. The Lifetime Income Amount is equal to 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance on that Contract Anniversary (0.05 X $84,000 = $4,200). In this example, since withdrawals were taken prior to the Contract Anniversary following the Contract Year in which the Covered Person has reached age 65, the initial Lifetime Income Amount is less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount.

DAt the Covered Person’s age 65, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and the Lifetime Income Amount are not equal.  The Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount of $6,000 can continue to be taken until the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance reduces to zero.  Or the Lifetime Income Amount of $4,200 can be taken as long as the Covered Person is alive.  This example shows Lifetime Income Amount withdrawals beginning at age 65.

82

Example 7. Assume the rider was issued on the Contract Date, and assume premiums of $10,000 annually beginning at Covered Person’s age 53 and premiums ending at age 64, no withdrawals are taken until age 65, and the Contract Value is less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance at the eligible step-up dates, so there is no step-up.

13	0	7,375	$7,375C	7,375	0	147,500

A There is no withdrawal during the second Contract Year so a bonus will be added to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance.  The bonus is equal to 5% of the total premiums paid to date (0.05 X $20,000 = $1,000).

B The bonus is applied in the first 10 years following the rider effective date (and up to age 80 of the covered person) so the bonus is 0 in years 11 and on.

CThe Lifetime Income Amount is calculated on the Contract Anniversary after the Covered Person’s 65th birthday. The Lifetime Income Amount is equal to 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance on that Contract Anniversary (0.05 X $147,500 = $7,375). At this point, the Lifetime Income Amount is payable until the death of the Covered Person.

83

Example8.  Assume a single premium of $100,000 at age 64 with a Rider Effective Date of June 1, 2012, no additional premiums are made, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance steps-up at the end of Contract Year 2, withdrawals equal to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount are taken in Contract Years 1, 2, 3 and 4 and a withdrawal exceeding the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount is taken at the end of Contract Year 5 which results in a reset. Since withdrawals are taken every year, there are no bonuses.

Contract Year	Premiums	Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount	Lifetime Income Amount	Withdrawal Taken	Hypothetical Contract Value	Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance
1	$100,000	$5,000	N/A	$5,000	$94,523	$100,000
2	0	5,000	$4,750A	5,000	102,971 B	95,000
3	0	5,148 C	5,148C	5,148	97,001	102,971B
4	0	5,148	5,148	5,148	91,854	97,823
5	0	5,148	5,148	10,000D	77,867	92,675
6	0	3,893D	3,893D	3,893	71,398	77,867D

AThe Lifetime Income Amount is calculated on the Contract Anniversary after the Covered Person’s 65th birthday. The Lifetime Income Amount is equal to 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance on that Contract Anniversary (0.05 X $95,000 = $4,750). In this example, since withdrawals were taken prior to the Contract Anniversary following the Contract Year in which the Covered Person has reached age 65, the initial Lifetime Income Amount is less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount.

BAt the end of Contract Year 2, the Contract Value in this example, $102,971 is greater than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance ($95,000 - $5,000 = $90,000). The Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance will step-up to equal the Contract Value of $102,971.

CFollowing the Step-up of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount is recalculated as the greater of (a) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount prior to the Step-up ($5,000) or (b) 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance after the Step-up (0.05 X $102,971 = $5,148). The Lifetime Income Amount is also recalculated as the greater of (a) the Lifetime Income Amount prior to the Step-up ($4,750) or (b) 5% of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance after the Step-up (0.05 X $102,971 = $5,148).

DAt the end of year 5, there is a withdrawal of $10,000, which is greater than both the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and the Lifetime Income Amount.  Since this is an Excess Withdrawal, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance will be reset to the lesser of (a) the Contract Value after the withdrawal ($77,867) or (b) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance prior to the withdrawal minus the amount of the withdrawal ($92,675 - $10,000 = $82,675). Since the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance was reset, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and the Lifetime Income Amount will both be reset.  The Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount will equal the lesser of (a) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount prior to the withdrawal ($5,148) or (b) 5% of the greater of the Contract Value after the withdrawal or the new Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance Value (0.05 X $77,867 = $3,893). The Lifetime Income Amount will equal the lesser of (a) the Lifetime Income Amount prior to the withdrawal ($5,148) or (b) 5% of the greater of the Contract Value after the withdrawal or the new Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance Value (0.05 X $77,867 = $3,893).

84

Example9.  Assume the rider was issued on the Contract Date, June 1, 2012, and assume a single premium of $50,000 at Covered Person’s age 50, no additional premiums are paid, a withdrawal of $10,000 is taken at the end of Contract Year 5 and no other withdrawals are taken.

Contract Year	Premiums	Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount	Lifetime Income Amount	Withdrawal Taken	Bonus	Hypothetical Contract Value	Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance
1	$50,000	$2,500	N/A	$0	$2,500	$47,300A	$50,000
2	0	2,625	N/A	0	2,500	49,671A	52,500
3	0	2,750	N/A	0	2,500	51,802A	55,000
4	0	2,875	N/A	0	2,500	52,711A	57,500
5	0	3,000	N/A	10,000B	0	45,326B	60,000
6	0	2,266B	N/A	0	2,266C	45,141A	45,326B
7	0	2,379	N/A	0	2,266	46,151 A	47,592
8	0	2,492	N/A	0	2,266	47,128 A	49,858
9	0	2,606	N/A	0	2,266	52,009A	52,124
10	0	2,719	N/A	0	2,266	53,982A	54,390

A The Contract Value on the contract anniversary is less than the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance so no step-up occurs.

B At the end of year 5, there is a withdrawal of $10,000.  Since this is an Excess Withdrawal, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance will be reset to the lesser of (a) the Contract Value after the withdrawal ($45,326) or (b) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance prior to the withdrawal minus the amount of the withdrawal ($60,000 - $10,000 = $50,000). Since the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance was reset, the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount will be reset.  The Lifetime Income Amount has not been calculated yet so it will not be reset.  The Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount will equal the lesser of (a) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount prior to the withdrawal ($3,000) or (b) 5% of the greater of the Contract Value after the withdrawal or the new Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance (0.05 X $45,326 = $2,266).

C There is no withdrawal during the sixth Contract Year so a bonus will be added to the Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance. Because a reset has occurred due to an Excess Withdrawal, the bonus will be 5% of the previously stepped-up or reset Guaranteed Withdrawal Balance (0.05 X $45,326= $2,266).

ADDITIONAL CONTRACT PROVISIONS

THE CONTRACT

The entire Contract is made up of the contract and the application.  The statements made in the application are deemed representations and not warranties.  We cannot use any statement to deny a claim or to void the Contract unless it is in the application and we attach a copy of the application to the Contract at issue.

INCONTESTABILITY

We will not contest the Contract after it has been in force during the Annuitant's lifetime for two years from the Contract Date of the Contract.

MISSTATEMENT OF AGE OR SEX

If the age or sex of the Annuitant has been misstated, the amount that we will pay is the amount that the Proceeds would have purchased at the correct age and sex.

If we make an overpayment because of an error in age or sex, the overpayment plus interest at 3% (compounded annually) will be a debt against the Contract.  If you do not repay this amount, we will reduce future payments accordingly.

If an underpayment is made because of an error in age or sex, we will calculate any annuity payments at the correct age and sex and we will adjust future payments.  We will pay the underpayment with interest at 3% (compounded annually) in a single sum.

NON-PARTICIPATION

The Contract is not eligible for any dividends and will not participate in our surplus earnings.

TAX STATUS OF THE CONTRACTS

Tax law imposes several requirements that variable annuities must satisfy in order to receive the tax treatment normally accorded to annuity contracts.

Diversification Requirements.  The Internal Revenue Code (“Code”) requires that the investments of each investment division of the separate account underlying the Contracts be “adequately diversified” in order for the Contracts to be treated as annuity contracts for federal income tax purposes.  It is intended that the Variable Account, through each Portfolio of the Funds, will satisfy these diversification requirements.

Owner Control.  In certain circumstances, owners of variable annuity contracts have been considered, for federal income tax purposes, to be the owners of the assets of the separate account supporting their contracts due to their ability to exercise investment control over those assets.  When this is the case, the contract owners have been currently taxed on income and gains attributable to the variable account assets.  There is little guidance in this area, and some features of the Contract, such as the flexibility of an Owner to allocate premium payments and transfer amounts among the investment divisions of the separate account, have not been explicitly addressed in published rulings.  While we believe that the Contract does not give an Owner investment control over separate account assets, we reserve the right to modify the Contract as necessary to prevent an Owner from being treated as the owner of the separate account assets supporting the Contract.

Required Distributions. In order to be treated as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes, section 72(s) of 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 the death of an Owner of the Contract.  Specifically, section 72(s) requires that:  (a) if any Owner dies on or after the annuity starting date, but prior to the time the entire interest in the Contract has been distributed, the entire interest in the Contract will be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution being used as of the date of such Owner’s death; and (b) if any Owner dies prior to the annuity starting date, the entire interest in the Contract will be distributed within five years after the date of such Owner’s death.  These requirements will be considered satisfied as to any portion of an Owner’s interest which is payable to or for the benefit of a designated Beneficiary and which is distributed over the life of such designated Beneficiary or over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of that Beneficiary, provided that such distributions begin within one year of the Owner’s death.  The

1

designated Beneficiary refers to a natural person designated by the Owner as a Beneficiary and to whom ownership of the Contract passes by reason of death.  However, if the designated Beneficiary is the surviving spouse of the deceased Owner, the Contract may be continued with the surviving spouse as the new Owner.

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 provisions and modify them if necessary to assure that they comply with the applicable requirements when such requirements are clarified by regulation or otherwise.

Other rules may apply to Qualified Contracts.

CONTROL OF THE CONTRACT

OWNERSHIP

The Annuitant is the Owner unless otherwise provided in the application.  As Owner, you may exercise every right provided by your Contract.  These rights and privileges end at the Annuitant’s death.

The consent of the Beneficiary is required to exercise these rights if you have not reserved the right to change the Beneficiary.

CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP

You may change the ownership of this Contract by giving Written Notice to us.  The change will be effective on the date your Written Notice was signed but will have no effect on any payment made or other action taken by us before we receive it.  We may require that the Contract be submitted for endorsement to show the change.

Certain federal income tax consequences may apply to a change of ownership on Non-Qualified Contracts.  You should consult with your tax adviser before requesting any changes of ownership on a Non-Qualified Contract.

ASSIGNMENT

An assignment is a transfer of some or all of your rights under this Contract.  No assignment will be binding on us unless made in writing and filed at our Home Office.  We assume no responsibility for the validity or effect of any assignment.

Certain federal income tax consequences may apply to an assignment.  You should consult with your tax adviser before requesting an assignment.

BENEFICIARY

The Beneficiary is shown on the application or in the last Beneficiary designation filed with us.  Death benefit Proceeds will be paid to the Beneficiary except as provided in this section.

If any Beneficiary dies before the Annuitant, that Beneficiary’s interest will pass to any other Beneficiaries according to their respective interest.

If all Beneficiaries die before the Annuitant, we will pay death benefit Proceeds to you, if living, otherwise to your estate or legal successors.

Unless you have waived the right to do so, you may change the Beneficiary by filing a Written Notice in a form satisfactory to us.  In order to be effective, the Written Notice for change of Beneficiary must be signed while your Contract is in force and the Annuitant is living.  The change will be effective on the date your Written Notice was signed but will have no effect on any payment made or other action taken by us before we receive it.

The interest of any Beneficiary will be subject to:

· any assignment of this Contract which is binding on us; and

· any optional settlement agreement in effect at the Annuitant’s death.

2

SIMULTANEOUS DEATH OF BENEFICIARY AND ANNUITANT

We will pay death benefit Proceeds as though the Beneficiary died before the Annuitant if:

· the Beneficiary dies at the same time as or within 15 days of the Annuitant’s death; and

· we have not paid the Proceeds to the Beneficiary within this 15-day period.

SALE OF THE CONTRACTS

We offer the Contracts to the public on a continuous basis through Sunset Financial Services, Inc. (“Sunset Financial”).  We anticipate continuing to offer the Contracts, but reserve the right to discontinue the offering.

Sunset Financial is responsible for distributing the Contracts pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement with us.  Sunset Financial serves as principal underwriter for the Contracts.  Sunset Financial, incorporated in the state of Washington on April 23, 1964, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Kansas City Life Insurance Company, and has its principal business address at P.O. Box 219365, Kansas City, Missouri 64121-9365.  Sunset Financial is registered as a broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”), and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”).  Sunset Financial is a member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation.

Sunset Financial offers the Contracts through its registered representatives.  Sunset Financial may also enter into selling agreements with other broker-dealers for sales of the Contracts through their registered representatives.  Registered representatives must be licensed as insurance agents and appointed by us.

We pay commissions to Sunset Financial for sales of the Contracts, which Sunset Financial shares with its registered representatives and also with broker-dealers who have entered into selling agreements.

Sunset Financial received sales compensation with respect to all variable contracts in the following amounts during the periods indicated:

Fiscal Year	Aggregate Amount of Commissions Paid to Sunset Financial*	Aggregate Amount of Commissions Retained by Sunset Financial After Payments to its Registered Persons and Other Broker-Dealers
2011	$1,813,636.00	$177,623.00
2012	$1,774,007.00	$188,084.00
2013	$1,853,606.00	$135,891.00

* Includes sales compensation paid to registered persons of Sunset Financial.

CALCULATION OF YIELDS AND TOTAL RETURNS

From time to time, we may disclose yields, total returns, and other performance data pertaining to the Contracts for a Subaccount.  Such performance data will be computed, or accompanied by performance data computed, in accordance with the standards defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

Because of the charges and deductions imposed under a Contract, the yield for the Subaccounts will be lower than the yield for their respective Portfolios.  The calculations of yields, total returns, and other performance data do not reflect the effect of any premium tax that may be applicable to a particular Contract.  Premium taxes currently range from 0% to 3.5% of premium based on the state in which the Contract is sold.

FEDERATED PRIME MONEY FUND II SUBACCOUNT YIELDS

From time to time, advertisements and sales literature may quote the current annualized yield of the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount for a seven-day period in a manner that does not take into consideration any realized or unrealized gains or losses, or income other than investment income, on shares of the Federated Prime Money Fund II or on its portfolio securities.

This current annualized yield is computed by determining the net change (exclusive of realized gains and losses on the sale of securities and unrealized appreciation and depreciation and exclusive of income other than investment income) at

3

the end of the seven-day period in the value of a hypothetical account under a Contract having a balance of one unit of the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount at the beginning of the period, dividing such net change in account value by the value of the hypothetical account at the beginning of the period to determine the base period return, and annualizing this quotient on a 365-day basis.

The net change in account value reflects:

· net income from the Federated Prime Money Fund II attributable to the hypothetical account; and

· charges and deductions imposed under the Contract which are attributable to the hypothetical account.

The charges and deductions include the per unit charges for the hypothetical account for:

· the annual administration fee,

· the asset-based administration charge, and

· the mortality and expense risk charge.

For purposes of calculating current yields for a Contract, an average per unit administrative fee is used based on the $30 annual administration fee deducted at the beginning of each Contract Year and an assumed account size equal to the Subaccount’s average account size.

Because of the charges and deductions imposed under the Contract, the yield for the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount will be lower than the yield for the Federated Prime Money Fund II.

The current and effective yields on amounts held in the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount normally will fluctuate on a daily basis.  Therefore, the disclosed yield for any given past period is not an indication or representation of future yields or rates of return.  The Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount's actual yield is affected by:

· changes in interest rates on money market securities;

· average portfolio maturity of the Federated Prime Money Fund II;

· the types and quality of portfolio securities held by the Federated Prime Money Fund II; and

· the Federated Prime Money Fund II's operating expenses.

Yields on amounts held in the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount may also be presented for periods other than a seven-day period.

OTHER SUBACCOUNT YIELDS

From time to time, sales literature or advertisements may quote the current annualized yield of one or more of the Subaccounts (except the Federated Prime Money Fund II Subaccount) for a Contract for 30-day or one-month periods. The annualized yield of a Subaccount refers to income generated by the Subaccount during a 30-day or one-month period that is assumed to be generated each period over a 12-month period.

The yield is computed by:

· dividing the net investment income of the Portfolio attributable to the Subaccount units less Subaccount expenses for the period; by

· the maximum offering price per unit on the last day of the period times the daily average number of units outstanding for the period; by

· compounding that yield for a six-month period; and by

· multiplying that result by two.  Expenses attributable to the Subaccount include the annual administration fee, asset-based administration charge, and mortality and expense risk charge.

The yield calculation assumes an annual administration fee of $30 per year per Contract deducted at the beginning of each Contract Year.  For purposes of calculating the 30-day or one-month yield, an average annual administration fee per

dollar of Contract Value in the Account is used to determine the amount of the charge attributable to the Subaccount for the 30-day or one-month period.

4

Because of the charges and deductions imposed under the Contracts, the yield for the Subaccount will be lower than the yield for the corresponding Fund’s Portfolio.

The yield on the amounts held in the Subaccounts normally will fluctuate over time.  Therefore, the disclosed yield for any given past period is not an indication or representation of future yields or rates of return.  A Subaccount's actual yield is affected by the types and quality of portfolio securities held by the corresponding Portfolio and its operating expenses.

Yield calculations do not take into account the surrender charge under the Contract.  The surrender charge is calculated as a percentage of your premium payment being surrendered or withdrawn during the applicable Premium Year.  The amount of the surrender charge decreases over time, measured from the date the premium payment is applied.  The initial surrender charge is 8%, decreasing to 0 after the eight Premium Years.  Subject to certain restrictions, a surrender charge will not be imposed upon surrender or on the first partial surrender in any Contract Year on an amount up to 10% of the Contract Value as of the beginning of the Contract Year.

STANDARD SUBACCOUNT AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS

From time to time, sales literature or advertisements may also quote standard subaccount average annual total returns for the Subaccounts for various periods of time.

When a Subaccount has been in operation for one, five and 10 years, respectively, the standard subaccount average annual total return for these periods will be provided.  Standard subaccount average annual total returns for other periods of time may, from time to time, also be disclosed.

Standard subaccount average annual total returns represent the average annual compounded rates of return that would equate an initial investment of $10,000 under a Contract to the redemption value of that investment as of the last day of each of the periods.  The ending date for each period for which total return quotations are provided will be for the most recent month-end practicable, considering the type and media of the communication that will be stated in the communication.

We will calculate standard subaccount average annual total returns using Subaccount unit values which we calculate on each valuation day based on:

· the performance of the Subaccount's underlying Portfolio;

· the deductions for the annual administration fee;

· asset-based administration charge; and

· mortality and expense risk charge.

The calculation assumes that the annual administration fee is $30 per year per Contract deducted at the beginning of each Contract Year.  For purposes of calculating average annual total return, an average per dollar annual administration fee attributable to the hypothetical account for the period is used based on an account size equal to the Subaccount’s average account size.  The calculation assumes the selection of the Base Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Option.  The calculation also assumes surrender of the Contract at the end of the period for the return quotation.  Standard subaccount average annual total returns will therefore reflect a deduction of the surrender charge for any period less than eight years.   The calculation does not reflect either of the guaranteed bonuses.

OTHER TOTAL RETURNS

Adjusted Historic Portfolio Average Annual Total Return.  From time to time, sales literature or advertisements may also quote total returns for periods prior to the date the Variable Account began operations.  Such performance information will be calculated based on the performance of the Portfolios and the assumption that the Subaccounts were in existence for the same periods as those indicated for the Portfolios, with the level of Contract charges currently in effect.

From time to time, sales literature or advertisements may also quote adjusted historic portfolio average annual total returns that do not reflect the surrender charge.  These are calculated in exactly the same way as the adjusted historic portfolio average annual total returns described above, except that the ending redeemable value of the hypothetical account for the period is replaced with an ending value for the period that does not take into account any charges on amounts surrendered.

5

We may disclose cumulative total returns in conjunction with the standard formats described above.

EFFECT OF THE ANNUAL ADMINISTRATION FEE ON PERFORMANCE DATA

The Contract provides for a $30 annual administration fee (waived for Contracts with a Contract Value of at least $50,000 at the beginning of the Contract Year) to be deducted annually at the beginning of each Contract Year, from the Subaccounts and the Fixed Account based on the proportion that the value of each such account bears to the total Contract Value. For purposes of reflecting the annual administration fee in yield and total return quotations, the annual charge is converted into a per-dollar per-day charge based on the average Contract Value in the Variable Account of all Contracts on the last day of the period for which quotations are provided. The per-dollar per-day average charge will then be adjusted to reflect the basis upon which the particular quotation is calculated.

SAFEKEEPING OF ACCOUNT ASSETS

We hold the title to the assets of the Variable Account.  The assets are kept physically segregated and held separate and apart from our Account assets and from the assets in any other separate account.

Records are maintained of all purchases and redemption’s of Portfolio shares held by each of the Subaccounts.

Our officers and employees are covered by an insurance company blanket bond issued by Fidelity and Deposit Company of Maryland to Kansas City Life in the amount of $5,000,000.  The bond insures against dishonest and fraudulent acts of officers and employees.

STATE REGULATION

We are subject to regulation and supervision by the Department of Insurance of the State of Missouri, which periodically examines our affairs.  We are also subject to the insurance laws and regulations of all jurisdictions where we are authorized to do business.  A copy of the Contract form has been filed with, and where required approved by, insurance officials in each jurisdiction where the Contracts are sold.  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 for the purposes of determining solvency and compliance with local insurance laws and regulations.

RECORDS AND REPORTS

We will retain all records and accounts relating to the Variable Account.  As presently required by the Investment Company Act of 1940 and regulations promulgated thereunder, reports containing such information as may be required under the Act or by any other applicable law or regulation will be sent to Contract Owners semi-annually at the Owner's last known address of record.

LEGAL MATTERS

All matters relating to Missouri law pertaining to the Contracts, including the validity of the Contracts and Kansas City Life's authority to issue the Contracts, have been passed upon by A. Craig Mason Jr., General Counsel of Kansas City Life.  Sutherland Asbill & Brennan LLP of Washington, D.C. has provided legal advice on certain matters relating to the federal securities laws.

Kansas City Life Insurance Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Policies

Business

Kansas City Life Insurance Company is a Missouri domiciled stock life insurance company which, with its subsidiaries, is licensed to sell insurance products in 49 states and the District of Columbia. The Company offers a diversified portfolio of individual insurance, annuity, and group products through three life insurance companies. The consolidated entity (the Company) primarily consists of three life insurance companies. Kansas City Life Insurance Company (Kansas City Life) is the parent company. Sunset Life Insurance Company of America (Sunset Life) and Old American Insurance Company (Old American) are wholly-owned subsidiaries.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on the basis of GAAP and include the accounts of Kansas City Life and its subsidiaries, principally Sunset Life and Old American. Significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation and certain immaterial reclassifications have been made to the prior period results to conform with the current period’s presentation.

Immaterial Correction of Errors

During the first quarter of 2012, the Company identified an error related to the amortization period for unrecognized actuarial gains and losses for its pension plan resulting in a reduction to net periodic pension expense of $2.0 million before applicable income taxes and an after-tax increase of $1.3 million to net income and stockholders' equity. The excess amortization had been previously recorded during 2011. Please refer to Note 13 - Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits for additional information.

During the second quarter of 2012, the Company identified an error in the presentation of treasury stock held for the benefit of the Company's deferred compensation plans. This treasury stock was previously recorded as a component of other assets but should have been recorded in stockholders' equity as treasury stock. The Company reclassified $6.2 million (188,621 shares) from other assets to treasury stock. This error had no material impact on net income in the current or prior reporting periods.

Management has evaluated these errors both quantitatively and qualitatively, and concluded that these corrections were not material to the consolidated financial statements.

Reinsurance Transaction

In April 2013, the Company acquired a closed block of variable universal life insurance policies and variable annuity contracts from American Family Life Insurance Company (American Family). Under the reinsurance agreement, the Company assumed 100% of the separate account liabilities on a modified coinsurance basis and 100% of the general account liabilities on a coinsurance basis. The transaction also involves ongoing servicing arrangements with American Family during the period that such policies and contracts are transitioned to administration by the Company. This block is included as a component of the Individual Insurance segment.

The purchase price of the transaction was $34.3 million and added $58.5 million in assets on the acquisition date, including deferred acquisition costs of $49.2 million and $9.3 million of policy loans and related accrued interest. The deferred acquisition costs will amortize with the expected future gross profits of the block of business. Liabilities included in the purchase totaled $24.2 million.

The modified coinsurance portion of the transaction represented approximately $291.6 million in separate account fund balances. The Company receives fees based upon both specific transactions and the fund value of the block of policies, as provided under modified coinsurance transactions. Also, as required under modified coinsurance transaction accounting, the separate account fund balances were not recorded as separate accounts on the Company's financial statements. Rather, they are required to be included in American Family's separate account balances. The coinsurance portion of the transaction represented approximately $23.6 million in fund value and $0.6 million in future policy benefits at acquisition. The Company recorded these fixed fund accounts as a separate block under its general accounts, and the Company also receives certain ongoing fees associated with specific transactions. This reinsurance transaction did not have a significant effect on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. These

5

Kansas City Life Insurance Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

estimates are inherently subject to change and actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates required in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements include the fair value of certain invested assets, deferred acquisition costs (DAC), value of business acquired (VOBA), future policy benefits, policy and contract claim liabilities, pension and other postretirement benefits, and the valuation allowance on deferred income tax assets.

Significant Accounting Policies

Investments

Investment income is recognized when earned. Premiums and discounts on fixed maturity securities are amortized over the life of the related security as an adjustment to yield using the effective interest method. Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments are determined on the basis of specific security identification recorded on the trade date. Unrealized gains and losses, net of adjustments to DAC, VOBA, policyholder account balances, future policy benefits, and deferred income taxes are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders' equity. Unrealized gains and losses represent the difference between amortized cost and fair value on the valuation date. The adjustments to DAC and VOBA represent changes in the amortization of DAC and VOBA that would have been required as a charge or credit to income had such unrealized amounts been realized. The adjustments to policyholder account balances and future policy benefits represent the increase from using a discount rate that would have been required if such unrealized gains or losses had been realized and the proceeds reinvested at current market interest rates, which were lower than the then-current effective portfolio rate.

Investment income on residential mortgage-backed securities is initially based upon yield, cash flow, and prepayment assumptions at the date of purchase. Subsequent revisions in those assumptions are recorded using the retrospective method, except for adjustable rate residential mortgage-backed securities where the prospective method is used. Under the retrospective method, the amortized cost of the security is adjusted to the amount that would have existed had the revised assumptions been in place at the time of purchase. Under the prospective method, future cash flows are estimated and interest income is recognized going forward using the new effective yield to maturity. The adjustments to amortized cost under both methods are recorded as a charge or credit to net investment income. These results are based upon validations and comparisons to similar securities provided by third parties, such as rating agencies.

Valuation of Investments

The Company’s principal investments are in fixed maturity securities, mortgage loans, and real estate; all of which are exposed to three primary sources of investment risk: credit, interest rate, and liquidity. The fixed maturity securities, which are all classified as available for sale, are carried at fair value in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, with unrealized gains or losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. The unrealized gains or losses are recorded net of the adjustment to policyholder account balances, future policy benefits, and DAC to reflect what would have been earned had those gains or losses been realized and the proceeds reinvested. For additional information, please see Note 5 – Fair Value Measurements.

Mortgage loans are stated at the outstanding principal amount, adjusted for amortization of premium and accrual of discount, less an allowance for potential future losses. A loan is considered impaired if it is probable that all contractual amounts due will not be collected. The allowance for potential future losses on mortgage loans is maintained at a level believed by management to be adequate to absorb potential future credit losses. Management’s periodic evaluation and assessment of the adequacy of the allowance is based on known and inherent risks in the portfolio, historical and industry data, current economic conditions and other relevant factors, along with specific risks related to specific loans. Loans in foreclosure, loans considered to be impaired, and loans past due 90 days or more are placed on a non-accrual status.

Real estate consists of directly owned investments and real estate joint ventures. Real estate that is directly owned is carried at depreciated cost. Real estate joint ventures consist primarily of office buildings, industrial warehouses, unimproved land for future development, and low income housing tax credit (LIHTC) investments. Real estate joint ventures are consolidated when required or are valued at cost, adjusted for the Company’s equity in earnings.

Policy loans are carried at the outstanding principal amount. Short-term investments are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium and accrual of discount.

Other-than-Temporary Impairments

The Company has a policy and process in place to identify securities and other assets that could potentially have an impairment that is other-than-temporary. This process involves monitoring market events and other items that could impact issuers’ credit ratings, business climate, management changes, litigation and government actions, and other similar factors. This process also involves monitoring late payments, downgrades by rating agencies, key financial ratios, financial statements, revenue forecasts,

Future Policy Benefits

The Company establishes liabilities for amounts payable under insurance policies, including traditional life insurance, immediate annuities with life contingencies, supplementary contracts with life contingencies, and accident and health insurance. These liabilities originate from new premiums and conversions from other products and are generally payable over an extended period of time.

Liabilities for future policy benefits of traditional life insurance have been computed by a net level premium method based upon estimates at the time of issue for investment yields, mortality, and withdrawals. These estimates include provisions for experience less favorable than initially expected. Mortality assumptions are based on Company experience expressed as a percentage of standard mortality tables. The 2001 Valuation Basic Table and the 1975-1980 Select and Ultimate Basic Table serve as the bases for most mortality assumptions.

In 2013, the Company refined its reserve calculation estimate for new traditional life insurance issues related to adjustments used for modal premiums. The refinements allow for more precise calculations of the reserve liability and resulted in a decrease to the reserve liability of $4.0 million. The refinements also resulted in a corresponding increase to the amortization of DAC, which largely offset the impact to net income.

Liabilities for future policy benefits of immediate annuities and supplementary contracts with life contingencies are computed by calculating an actuarial present value of future policy benefits, based upon estimates for investment yields and mortality at the time of issue. The 1971 Individual Annuity Mortality Table, the 1983 Individual Annuity Mortality Table, and the Annuity 2000 Table serve as the bases for most immediate annuity and supplementary contract mortality assumptions.

Liabilities for future policy benefits of accident and health insurance represent estimates of payments to be made on reported insurance claims, as well as claims incurred but not yet reported. These liabilities are estimated using actuarial analyses and case basis evaluations that are based upon past claims experience, claim trends, and industry experience.

The following table provides detail about the composition of future policy benefits at December 31.

	2013		2012
Life insurance	$	617,503	$	616,355
Immediate annuities and supplementary contracts with life contingencies	255,423		231,882
Accident and health insurance	37,302		40,870
Total future policy benefits	$	910,228	$	889,107

Policyholder Account Balances

Policyholder account balances include universal life insurance, fixed deferred annuity contracts, and investment-type contracts. Liabilities for these policyholder account balances are included without reduction for potential surrender charges. These liabilities originate from new deposits and conversions from other products. These policyholder account balances are equal to cumulative deposits, less contract charges and withdrawals, plus interest credited. Deferred front-end contract charges reduce policyholder account balance liabilities and increase the other policyholder funds liability, and are amortized over the term of the policies in a manner similar to deferred acquisition costs, as discussed below. Policyholder benefits incurred in excess of related policyholder account balances are charged to policyholder benefits expense.

Crediting rates for universal life insurance and fixed deferred annuity products ranged from 1.00% to 5.50% in 2013 (2012 – 1.00% to 5.50%; 2011 – 1.50% to 5.50%).

Deferred Acquisition Costs (DAC)

DAC, principally agent commissions and other selling, selection, and issue costs, which are related directly to the successful acquisition of new or renewal insurance contracts, are capitalized as incurred. At least annually, the Company reviews its DAC capitalization policy and the specific items which are capitalized with existing guidance. See Note 3 for discussion of the implementation of new accounting guidance adopted during 2012 related to the costs capitalized. These deferred costs for life insurance products are generally deferred and amortized over the premium paying period. Assumptions related to DAC on traditional life insurance products are typically determined at inception and remain unchanged with any future premium deficiency recorded first as a reduction of DAC.

Policy acquisition costs that relate to interest sensitive and variable insurance products are deferred and amortized in relation to the estimated gross profits to be realized over the lives of the contracts. Estimated gross profits for interest sensitive and variable insurance products are projected using assumptions as to net interest income, net realized investment gains and losses, fees, surrender charges, expenses, and mortality gains and losses, net of reinsurance. At the issuance of policies, projections of estimated gross profits are made. These projections are then replaced by actual gross profits over the lives of the policies. In addition to other factors, emerging experience may lead to a revised outlook for the remaining estimated gross profits. Accordingly, DAC may be recalculated (unlocked) using these new assumptions and any resulting adjustment is included in income in the period such an unlocking is deemed appropriate. In addition, the reinsurance assumption transaction with American Family increased deferred acquisition costs $49.2 million in 2013.

The DAC asset is adjusted to reflect the impact of unrealized gains and losses on fixed maturity securities available for sale, as described in the Investments section of Note 1.

The following table provides information about DAC at December 31.

Value of Business Acquired (VOBA)

Prior to the adoption of ASC No. 805, Business Combinations, a portion of the purchase price was allocated to a separately identifiable intangible asset, VOBA, when a new block of business was acquired or when an insurance company was purchased. The concept of VOBA is no longer applied to business combinations. Rather, under current guidance for Business Combinations, all amounts are reported at fair value at acquisition. VOBA is established as the actuarially determined present value of future gross profits of the business acquired and is amortized with interest in proportion to future premium revenues or the expected future profits, depending on the type of business acquired. VOBA is reported as a component of other assets with related amortization included in operating expenses. Amortization of VOBA occurs with interest over the anticipated lives of the underlying business to which it relates, initially 15 to 30 years. The assumptions regarding future experience on interest sensitive business can affect the carrying value of VOBA, similar to DAC. These assumptions include interest spreads, mortality, expense margins, and policy and premium persistency experience.

Kansas City Life Insurance Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The VOBA asset is adjusted to reflect the impact of unrealized gains and losses on fixed maturity securities available for sale, as described in the Investments section of Note 1.

The following table provides information about VOBA at December 31.

	2013			2012			2011
Balance at beginning of year	$	21,165		$	31,545		$	49,271
Gross amortization	(7,566		)	(9,635		)	(10,673		)
Accrual of interest	2,220			2,595			3,197
Amortization due to realized investment (gains) losses	(58		)	(74		)	(169		)
Change in VOBA due to unrealized investment gains	12,781			(3,266		)	(10,081		)
Balance at end of year	$	28,542		$	21,165		$	31,545

The accrual of interest for Old American VOBA was calculated at a 7.0% rate for the accident and health block. In 2013, interest accrued on the GuideOne VOBA was at the rates of 4.2% on the interest sensitive life block and 5.3% on the traditional life block. The VOBA on a separate acquired block of business used a 7.0% interest rate on the traditional life portion and a 5.4% interest rate on the interest sensitive portion. The interest rates used in the calculation of VOBA are based on rates appropriate at the time of acquisition.

Unlocking and Refinements in Estimates

DAC and VOBA are reviewed on an ongoing basis to evaluate whether the unamortized portion exceeds the expected recoverable amounts. If it is determined from emerging experience that the premium margins or expected gross profits are insufficient to amortize DAC and VOBA, then the asset will be adjusted downward with the adjustment recorded as an expense in the current period. Similarly, if future projections of estimated gross profits indicate improvements, the amortization of DAC and VOBA may be reduced and the balance adjusted.

At least annually, a review is performed of the models and the assumptions used to develop expected gross profits for interest sensitive and variable insurance products based upon management’s current view of future events. Management’s view primarily reflects Company experience but can also reflect emerging trends within the industry. Short-term deviations in experience affect the amortization of DAC, deferred revenue liability (DRL), and VOBA in the period, but do not necessarily indicate that a change to the long-term assumptions of future experience is warranted. If it is determined that it is appropriate to change the assumptions related to future experience, then an unlocking adjustment is recognized retrospectively for the block of business being evaluated. Certain assumptions, such as interest spreads and surrender rates, may be interrelated. As such, unlocking adjustments often reflect revisions to multiple assumptions. The DAC, DRL, or VOBA balance is immediately impacted by any assumption changes, with the change reflected through the income statement as an unlocking adjustment. These adjustments can be positive or negative, and adjustments increasing the DAC asset are limited to amounts previously deferred plus interest accrued through the date of the adjustment.

The Company may consider refinements in estimates due to improved capabilities resulting from administrative or actuarial system enhancements. The Company considers such enhancements to determine whether and to what extent they are associated with prior periods or simply improvements in the projection of future expected gross profits due to improved functionality. To the extent they represent such improvements, these items are applied to DAC, VOBA, and DRL in a manner similar to unlocking adjustments.

Reinsurance

Consistent with the general practice of the life insurance industry, the Company enters into traditional agreements of indemnity reinsurance with other insurance companies to support sales of new products and the in force business. The reinsurance arrangements have taken various forms over the years. The Company has reinsurance in force on all of the following bases: automatic and facultative; yearly renewable term (YRT) and coinsurance; and excess and quota share basis. For additional information pertaining to the Company’s significant reinsurers, along with additional information pertaining to reinsurance, please see Note 15 - Reinsurance.

Reinsurance recoverables include amounts related to paid benefits and estimated amounts related to unpaid policy and contract claims, future policy benefits, and policyholder account balances. All insurance related revenues, benefits, and expenses are reported net of reinsurance ceded. Policies and contracts assumed are accounted for in a manner similar to that followed for direct business.

Recognition of Revenues

Premiums for traditional life insurance products are reported as revenue when due. Premiums for immediate annuities with life contingencies are reported as revenue when received. Premiums on accident and health, disability, and dental insurance are reported as earned ratably over the contract period in proportion to the amount of insurance protection provided.

Deposits related to universal life, fixed deferred annuity contracts, and investment-type products are credited to policyholder account balances. Deposits are not recorded as revenue and are shown as a Financing Activity in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Revenues from such contracts consist of amounts assessed against policyholder account balances for mortality, policy administration, and surrender charges, and are recognized in the period in which the benefits and services are provided as contract charges in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Contract Charges

Contract charges consist of cost of insurance, expense loads, the amortization of unearned revenues, and surrender charges on policyholder account balances. Cost of insurance relates to charges for mortality. These charges are applied to the excess of the mortality benefit over the account value for universal life policies. Expense loads are amounts that are assessed against the policyholder balance as consideration for origination and maintenance of the contract. Surrender charges are fees on policyholder account balances upon cancellation or withdrawal of policyholder account balances consistent with policy terms.

An additional component of contract charges is the recognition over time of the DRL for certain fixed and variable universal life policies. This liability arises from front-end loads on such policies and is recognized into the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income in a manner similar to the amortization of DAC.

Contract charges could be impacted by unlocking and refinements in estimates, as discussed previously.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefits (GMWB)

The Company has a GMWB rider for variable annuity contracts that is considered to be a financial derivative and, as such, is accounted for at fair value. The Company determines the fair value of the GMWB rider using a risk-neutral valuation method. The value of the riders will fluctuate depending on market conditions, but is principally impacted by stock market volatility and interest rates. The change in value can have a material impact on earnings.

Interest Credited to Policyholder Account Balances

Interest is credited to policyholder account balances according to terms of the policies or contracts. Interest sensitive life and annuity contracts provide for the payment of interest credited to policyholder account balances, subject to contractual minimum guaranteed rates. Amounts in excess of guarantees are credited at the discretion of the Company and reflect competitive, economic, investment and product considerations. Interest credited shown on the Company's financial statements reflects both the rates declared for interest sensitive products and the amount of the balances to which those rates apply. Accordingly, the Company reviews and adjusts crediting rates as necessary and appropriate. Amounts credited are a function of account balances and current period crediting rates. As account balances fluctuate, so will the amount of interest credited to policyholder account balances.

Income Taxes

The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return that includes both life insurance companies and non-life insurance companies.

Deferred income taxes are recorded on the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and the amounts at which they are reported in the consolidated financial statements. Recorded amounts are adjusted to reflect changes in income tax rates and other tax law provisions as they become enacted.

Deferred income tax assets are subject to ongoing evaluation of whether such assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets generally depends on the reversal of deferred tax liabilities and the generation of future taxable income and realized gains during the periods in which temporary differences become deductible. Deferred income taxes include future deductible differences relating to unrealized losses on investment securities. The Company evaluates the character and timing of unrealized gains and losses to determine whether future taxable amounts are sufficient to offset future deductible amounts. A valuation allowance against deferred income tax assets may be required if future taxable income of an appropriate amount and character is not expected.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) is comprised of net income and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) includes the unrealized investment gains or losses on securities available for sale (net of reclassification adjustments) net of adjustments to DAC, VOBA, policyholder account balances, and future policy benefits. In addition, other comprehensive income (loss) includes the change in the liability for benefit plan obligations. Other comprehensive income (loss) reflects these items net of tax. For additional information, please see Note 16 – Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Participating Policies

The Company has some insurance contracts where the policyholder is entitled to share in the earnings through dividends that reflect the difference between the premium charged and the actual experience. Participating business at year-end 2013 approximated 8% of statutory premiums and 14% of the life insurance in force, increasing from 3% and 4% in 2012, respectively. The increase in 2013 was the result of the reinsurance transaction. The amount of dividends to be paid is determined annually by the Company's Board of Directors. Provision has been made in the liability for future policy benefits to allocate amounts to participating policyholders on the basis of dividend scales contemplated at the time the policies were issued. Provision has been made in the liability for future policy benefits to allocate amounts to participating policyholders on the basis of dividend scales contemplated at the time the policies were issued, as well as for policyholder dividends in excess of the original scale, which have been declared by the Board of Directors.

2. New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted During 2013

In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance regarding the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). The guidance requires entities to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of AOCI by component. Significant amounts reclassified out of AOCI that are required under GAAP to be reclassified to net income in their entirety in the same reporting period must be presented either on the face of the statement, where net income is presented, or in the footnotes. For amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income,

11

Kansas City Life Insurance Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

entities are required to cross-reference to other disclosures that are required by GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. The Company adopted this new guidance as of January 1, 2013 with no material impact to the consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued During 2013, Not Yet Adopted

In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance regarding obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements. The guidance concerns the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this guidance is fixed at the reporting date, except for obligations addressed within existing guidance in GAAP. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance but it does not believe that there will be a material impact to the consolidated financial statements.

All other new accounting standards and updates of existing standards issued through the date of this filing were considered by management and did not relate to accounting policies and procedures pertinent to the Company at this time or were not expected to have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements.

3. Change in Accounting Principle and Change in Accounting Estimate

Change in Accounting Principle

The Company prospectively adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-26, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Acquiring or Renewing Insurance Contracts,” effective January 1, 2012. This guidance modifies the types of costs incurred by insurance entities that can be capitalized when issuing or renewing insurance contracts. The guidance defines allowable deferred acquisition costs as incremental or directly related to the successful acquisition of new or renewal contracts. In addition, certain costs related directly to acquisition activities performed by the insurer, such as underwriting and policy issuance, are also deferrable. This guidance also defines the considerations for the deferral of direct-response advertising costs.

Pursuant to this guidance, the Company evaluated the types of acquisition costs it capitalizes. The Company capitalizes agent compensation and benefits and other expenses that are directly related to the successful acquisition of contracts. The Company also capitalizes expenses directly related to activities performed by the Company, such as underwriting, policy issuance, and processing fees incurred in connection with successful contract acquisitions.

The amount of acquisition costs capitalized during 2012 was $36.9 million. The acquisition costs that would have been capitalized during 2012 if the Company's previous policy had been applied during that period was $34.0 million. Thus, the adoption of this guidance resulted in an increase of $2.9 million in the amount of acquisition costs capitalized during 2012. After consideration of amortization, the net result of the adoption of ASU No. 2010-26 was an increase of $2.6 million in pretax earnings in 2012.

Change in Accounting Estimate

During 2012, the Company completed a change in accounting estimate related to a long-lived asset. This asset concluded its initial depreciation schedule in the third quarter of 2012. The Company reassessed this asset and its ongoing use of it and determined that it has a useful life greater than estimated at the time of initial implementation. The Company has the ability and the intent to hold and use this asset over the reassessed useful life. The Company also established an updated residual value, consistent with longer use of the asset. The Company recalculated the depreciation that would have been recognized to date using the reevaluated useful life and residual value, resulting in additional depreciation of $3.7 million being recorded as an operating expense in the third quarter of 2012. The Company evaluated the impact of the change in future depreciation and determined that this change in accounting estimate will not materially impact future comparisons.

The Company prepares a formal review document no less often than quarterly of all investments where fair value is less than 80% of amortized cost for six months or more and selected investments that have changed significantly from a previous period and that have a decline in fair value greater than 10% of amortized cost.

The Company considers relevant facts and circumstances in evaluating whether the impairment of a security is other-than-temporary. Relevant facts and circumstances considered include but are not limited to:

• The current fair value of the security as compared to amortized cost;

• The credit rating of the security;

• The extent and the length of time the fair value has been below amortized cost;

• The financial position of the issuer, including the current and future impact of any specific events, material declines in the issuer’s revenues, margins, cash positions, liquidity issues, asset quality, debt levels, and income results;

• Significant management or organizational changes;

• Significant uncertainty regarding the issuer’s industry;

• Violation of financial covenants;

• Consideration of information or evidence that supports timely recovery;

• The Company’s intent and ability to hold an equity security until it recovers in value;

• Whether the Company intends to sell a debt security and whether it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell a debt security before recovery of the amortized cost basis; and

• Other business factors related to the issuer’s industry.

To the extent the Company determines that a fixed maturity security is deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, the portion of the impairment that is deemed to be due to credit is charged to the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and the cost basis of the underlying investment is reduced. The portion of such impairment that is determined to be non-credit-related is deducted from net realized loss in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and is reflected in other comprehensive income (loss) and accumulated other comprehensive income.

There are a number of significant risks and uncertainties inherent in the process of monitoring impairments, determining if an impairment is other-than-temporary, and determining the portion of an other-than-temporary impairment that is due to credit. These risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to:

• The risk that the Company’s assessment of an issuer’s ability to meet all of its contractual obligations will change based on changes in the credit characteristics of that issuer;

• The risk that the economic outlook will be worse than expected or have more of an impact on the issuer than anticipated;

• The risk that the performance of the underlying collateral for securities could deteriorate in the future and the Company’s credit enhancement levels and recovery values do not provide sufficient protection to the Company’s contractual principal and interest;

• The risk that fraudulent, inaccurate, or misleading information could be provided to the Company’s credit, investment, and accounting professionals who determine the fair value estimates and accounting treatment for securities;

• The risk that actions of trustees, custodians, or other parties with interests in the security may have an unforeseen adverse impact on the Company’s investments;

• The risk that new information obtained by the Company or changes in other facts and circumstances may lead the Company to change its intent to sell the security before it recovers in value;

• The risk that facts and circumstances change such that it becomes more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investment before recovery of the amortized cost basis; and

• The risk that the methodology or assumptions used to develop estimates of the portion of impairments due to credit prove, over time, to be inaccurate or insufficient.

Any of these situations could result in a charge to income in a future period.

Once a security is determined to have met certain of the criteria for consideration as being other-than-temporarily impaired, further information is gathered and evaluated pertaining to the particular security. If the security is an unsecured obligation, the additional research is a top-down approach with particular emphasis on the likelihood of the issuer to meet the contractual terms of the obligation. If the security is secured by an asset or guaranteed by another party, the value of the underlying secured asset or the financial ability of the third-party guarantor is evaluated as a secondary source of repayment. Such research is

15

Kansas City Life Insurance Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements–(Continued)

based upon a top-down approach, narrowing to the specific estimates of value and cash flow of the underlying secured asset or guarantor. If the security is a collateralized obligation, such as a mortgage-backed or other asset-backed instrument, research is also conducted to obtain and analyze the performance of the collateral relative to expectations at the time of acquisition and with regard to projections for the future. Such analyses are based upon historical results, trends, comparisons to collateral performance of similar securities, and analyses performed by third parties. This information is used to develop projected cash flows that are compared to the amortized cost of the security.

If a determination that new asset-backed or new structured securities are other-than-temporarily impaired, an estimate is developed of the portion of such impairment that is due to credit. The estimate of the portion of impairment due to credit is based upon a comparison of ratings and maturity horizon for the security and relative historical default probabilities from one or more nationally recognized rating organizations. When appropriate for any given security, sector or period in the business cycle, the historical default probability is adjusted to reflect periods or situations of distress by adding to the default probability increments of standard deviations from mean historical results. The credit impairment analysis is supplemented by estimates of potential recovery values for the specific security, including the potential impact of the value of any secured assets, in the event of default. This information is used to determine the Company's best estimate, derived from probability-weighted cash flows.

The Company may selectively determine that it no longer intends to hold a specific issue to its maturity. If the Company makes this determination and the fair value is less than the cost basis, the investment is written down to the fair value and an other-than-temporary impairment is recorded on this particular position. Subsequently, the Company seeks to obtain the best possible outcome available for this specific issue and records an investment gain or loss at the disposal date.

The evaluation of loan-backed and similar asset-backed securities, particularly residential mortgage-backed securities, with significant indications of potential other-than-temporary impairment requires considerable use of estimates and judgment. Specifically, the Company performs discounted cash flow projections on these securities to evaluate whether the value of the investment is expected to be fully realized. Projections of expected future cash flows are based upon considerations of the performance of the actual underlying assets, including historical delinquencies, defaults, severity of losses incurred, and prepayments, along with the Company’s estimates of future results for these factors. The Company’s estimates of future results are based upon actual historical performance of the underlying assets relative to historical, current and expected general economic conditions, specific conditions related to the underlying assets, industry data, and other factors that are believed to be relevant. If the present value of the projected expected future cash flows are determined to be below the amortized cost of the security, the Company recognizes an other-than-temporary impairment on the portion of the amortized cost that exceeds the projected expected future cash flows. To the extent that the loan-backed or other asset-backed securities were high quality investments at the time of acquisition, and they remain high quality investments and do not otherwise demonstrate characteristics of impairment, the Company performs other initial evaluations to determine whether other-than-temporary cash flow evaluations need to be performed.

The discounted future cash flow calculation typically becomes the primary determinant of whether any portion and to what extent an unrealized loss is due to credit on loan-backed and similar asset-backed securities with significant indications of potential other-than-temporary impairment. Such indications typically include below investment grade ratings and significant unrealized losses for an extended period of time, among other factors. The Company identified and tested 24 and 21 non-U.S. Agency mortgage-backed securities that had such indications at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The discount rate used in calculating the present value of future cash flows was the investment yield at the time of purchase for each security. The initial default rates were assumed to remain constant over a 24 month time frame and grade down thereafter, reflecting the general perspective of a more stabilized residential housing environment in the future.

For loan-backed and similar asset-backed securities, the determination of any amount of impairment that is due to credit is based upon the present value of projected future cash flows being less than the amortized cost of the security. This amount is recognized as a realized loss in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and the carrying value of the security is written down by the same amount. The portion of an impairment that is determined not to be due to credit is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Significant unrealized losses on securities can continue for extended periods of time, particularly for certain individual securities. While this can be an indication of potential credit impairments, it can also be an indication of illiquidity in a particular sector or security. In addition, the fair value of an individual security can be heavily influenced by the complexities of varying market sentiment or uncertainty regarding the prospects for an individual security. This has been the situation in several sectors in recent years, most notably in the non-U.S. Agency mortgage-backed securities market. Based upon the process described above, the Company is best able to determine if and to what extent credit impairment may exist in these securities by performing present value calculations of projected future cash flows at the conclusion of each reporting period. By reviewing the most recent data available regarding the security and other relevant industry and market factors, the Company

can modify assumptions used in the cash flow projections and determine the best estimate of the portion of any impairment that is due to credit at the conclusion of each period.

The Company held three non-income producing securities with a carrying value of $2.0 million million at December 31, 2013, compared to one security with a carrying value of $1.9 million at December 31, 2012. These securities were previously written down due to other-than-temporary impairments and placed on non-accrual status.

The Company did not hold securities of any corporation and its affiliates that exceeded 10% of stockholders' equity at December 31, 2013 or 2012.

The Company is exposed to risk that issuers of securities owned by the Company will default or that interest rates or credit spreads will change and cause a decrease in the value of its investments. With residential mortgage-backed securities, the Company is also exposed to prepayment and extension risks. As interest rates change, the rate at which these securities pay down principal may change. These risks are mitigated by investing in high-grade securities and managing the maturities and cash flows of investments and liabilities.

As an additional separate consideration, the Company closely monitors its investments in securities classified as subprime. Subprime securities include all bonds or portions of bonds where the underlying collateral is made up of home equity loans or first mortgage loans to borrowers whose credit scores at the time of origination were lower than the level recognized in the market as prime. The Company’s classification of subprime does not include Alt-A or jumbo loans, unless the collateral otherwise meets the preceding definition.

Mortgage Loans

Investments in mortgage loans totaled $629.3 million at December 31, 2013, compared to $674.0 million at December 31, 2012. The Company's mortgage loans are mostly secured by commercial real estate and are stated at the outstanding principal balance, adjusted for amortization of premium and accrual of discount, less an allowance for potential future losses. This allowance is maintained at a level believed by management to be adequate to absorb estimated credit losses and was $3.3 million at both December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Management's periodic evaluation and assessment of the adequacy of the allowance is based on known and inherent risks in the portfolio, historical experience, industry data, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. Please see Note 6 - Financing Receivables for additional information. One mortgage loan has been foreclosed upon and transferred to real estate investments during the past two years. It resulted in the recognition of an impairment loss of $0.2 million in 2012, as the fair value was less than the carrying value. Also, there were five delinquent mortgage loans at December 31, 2013 (three at December 31, 2012). Payment was subsequently received on three of these loans in January 2014 to bring these loans current. Two loans were in the process of foreclosure at December 31, 2013, with no loss anticipated. The Company does not hold mortgage loans to any single borrower that exceed 5% of stockholders' equity.

The Company had 18% of its invested assets in commercial mortgage loans at both December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. New commercial loans, including refinanced loans, were $72.7 million and $178.7 million for 2013 and 2012, respectively. The level of new commercial mortgage loans in any year is influenced by market conditions, as the Company responds to changes in interest rates, available spreads, borrower demand, and opportunities to acquire loans that meet the Company's yield and quality thresholds.

In addition to the subject collateral underlying the mortgage, the Company typically requires some amount of recourse from borrowers as another potential source of repayment. The recourse requirement is determined as part of the underwriting requirements of each loan. The Company added 46 new loans to the portfolio during 2013 and 100% of these loans had some amount of recourse requirement. No new loans were purchased from institutional lenders during 2013. The average loan-to-value ratio for the overall portfolio was 50% at December 31, 2013, up from 47% at December 31, 2012. These ratios are based upon the current balance of loans relative to the appraisal of value at the time the loan was originated or acquired. The average loan balance was $1.6 million at both December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The Company has certain mortgage loans that have an unamortized premium, totaling $2.7 million as of December 31, 2013, compared to $3.6 million at December 31, 2012.

The following table identifies the gross mortgage loan principal outstanding and the allowance for potential future losses at December 31.

The concentration in California, along with other states included in the pacific region, exposes the Company to potential losses from a regional economic downturn and certain catastrophes, such as earthquakes and fires, that may affect certain areas of the region. The Company requires borrowers to maintain fire insurance coverage to provide reimbursement for any losses due to fire. The Company diversifies its commercial mortgage loan portfolio both geographically and by property type to reduce certain catastrophic and economic exposure. However, diversification may not always sufficiently mitigate the risk of such losses. Historically, the delinquency rate of the Company's pacific region commercial mortgage loans has been substantially

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements–(Continued)

below the industry average and consistent with the Company's experience in other regions. The Company does not require earthquake insurance for properties on which it makes commercial mortgage loans. However, the Company does consider structural information specific to each property, as well as the potential for earthquake loss if the property lies within areas believed by the Company to be seismically active submarkets. The Company does not expect catastrophe or earthquake damage or economic downturn in the pacific region that may occur to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the Company cannot provide assurance that such risks could not have such material adverse effects.

Under the laws of certain states, environmental contamination of a property may result in a lien on the property to secure recovery of the costs of cleanup. In some states, such a lien has priority over the lien of an existing mortgage against such property. As a commercial mortgage lender, the Company customarily conducts environmental assessments prior to making commercial mortgage loans secured by real estate and before taking title on real estate. Based on the Company's environmental assessments, the Company believes that any compliance costs associated with environmental laws and regulations or any remediation of affected properties would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the Company cannot provide assurance that material compliance costs will not be incurred.

The Company may refinance commercial mortgage loans prior to contractual maturity as a means of originating new loans that meet the Company's underwriting and pricing parameters. The Company refinanced loans with outstanding balances of $10.6 million and $31.6 million during the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

In the normal course of business, the Company commits to fund commercial mortgage loans generally up to 120 days in advance. These commitments typically have fixed expiration dates. A small percentage of commitments expire due to the borrower's failure to deliver the requirements of the commitment by the expiration date. In these cases, the Company retains the commitment fee. For additional information, please see Note 21 - Commitments.

Real Estate

Investments in real estate totaled $142.5 million at December 31, 2013, compared to $124.7 million at December 31, 2012. The table below provides information concerning the Company's real estate investments by major category at December 31.

5. Fair Value Measurements

Under GAAP, fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset (exit price) or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It is the Company’s policy to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when developing fair value measurements.

The Company categorizes its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the inputs and assumptions used to determine the fair value. These levels are as follows:

Level 1 - Valuations are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

Level 2 - Valuations are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market. Valuations are obtained from third-party pricing services or inputs that are observable or derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 - Valuations are generated from techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company's assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of discounted cash flow models, spread-based models, and similar techniques, using the best information available in the circumstances.

Following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value and for estimating fair value for financial instruments not recorded at fair value but for which fair value is disclosed.

Assets

Securities Available for Sale

Fixed maturity and equity securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon unadjusted quoted prices, if available, except as described in the subsequent paragraphs.

Cash and Short-Term Financial Assets

Short-term financial assets include cash and other short-term investments. Cash is categorized as Level 1. Other short-term assets are invested in institutional money market funds. These assets are categorized as Level 2, as the valuation is based upon the net asset value (NAV) of the fund. There are no restrictions on withdrawal of these funds.

Loans

The Company does not record loans at fair value. As such, valuation techniques discussed herein for loans are primarily for estimating fair value for purpose of disclosure.

Fair values of mortgage loans on real estate properties are calculated by discounting contractual cash flows, using discount rates based on current industry pricing or the Company’s estimate of an appropriate risk-adjusted discount rate for loans of similar size, type, remaining maturity, likelihood of prepayment, and repricing characteristics. Mortgage loans are categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

The Company also has loans made to policyholders. These loans cannot exceed the cash surrender value of the policy. Carrying value of policy loans approximates fair value. Policy loans are categorized as Level 3.

Separate Accounts

The separate account assets and liabilities, which are equal, are recorded at fair value based upon NAV of the underlying investment holdings as provided by the issuer. This is the value at which a policyholder could transact with the issuer on the date. Separate accounts are categorized as Level 2.

Liabilities

Investment-Type Liabilities Included in Policyholder Account Balances and Other Policyholder Funds

The fair values of investment-type insurance contracts included with policyholder account balances for fixed deferred annuities are estimated to be their cash surrender values as there is not a required maturity date. The fair values of supplementary contracts without life contingencies are estimated to be the present value of payments at a market yield. The fair values of deposits with no stated maturity are estimated to be the amount payable on demand at the measurement date. These liabilities are categorized as Level 3.

26

Kansas City Life Insurance Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements–(Continued)

Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefits (GMWB) Included in Other Policyholder Funds

The Company offers a GMWB rider that can be added to new or existing variable annuity contracts. The rider provides an enhanced withdrawal benefit that guarantees a stream of income payments to an owner or annuitant, regardless of the contract account value. Fair value for GMWB rider contracts is a Level 3 valuation, as it is based on models which utilize significant unobservable inputs. These models require actuarial and financial market assumptions, which reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the contract, including adjustments for volatility, risk, and issuer non-performance.

Determination of Fair Value

The determination of the fair value of the Company's fixed maturity and equity securities is the responsibility of the Company's investment accounting group, which reports to the Principal Accounting Officer. This group manages and creates the policies and processes used to determine the fair value for these assets. This group employs third-party pricing services and obtains selected support from the Company's portfolio managers in order to achieve results for this multi-tiered process. All prices are reviewed by the investment accounting group. The financial reporting group, the Principal Accounting Officer, and the Chief Financial Officer also review the fair value methodologies and the fair values that are obtained each quarter. The results of these reviews are made known to the Company's Disclosure Committee and to the Company's Audit Committee. In addition, any significant policy or process changes made during the quarter are also discussed with the Company's Audit Committee.

The Company utilizes external third-party pricing services to determine the majority of its fair values on investment securities available for sale. At December 31, 2013, approximately 97% of the carrying value of these investments was from external pricing services, 1% was from brokers, and 2% was derived from internal matrices and calculations. In the event that the primary pricing service does not provide a price, the Company utilizes the price provided by a second pricing service. The Company reviews prices received from service providers for reasonableness and unusual fluctuations but generally accepts the price identified from the primary pricing service. In the event a price is not available from either third-party pricing service, the Company pursues external pricing from brokers. Generally, the Company pursues and utilizes only one broker quote per security. In doing so, the Company solicits only brokers which have previously demonstrated knowledge and experience of the subject security. If a broker price is not available, the Company determines a fair value through various valuation techniques that may include discounted cash flows, spread-based models, or similar techniques, depending upon the specific security to be priced. These techniques are primarily applied to private placement securities. The Company utilizes available market information, wherever possible, to identify inputs into the fair value determination, primarily including prices and spreads on comparable securities.

Each quarter, the Company evaluates the prices received from third-party security pricing services and independent brokers to ensure that the prices represent a reasonable estimate of the fair value within the macro-economic environment, sector factors, and overall pricing trends and expectations. The Company corroborates and validates the primary pricing sources through a variety of procedures that include but are not limited to comparison to additional third-party pricing services or brokers, where possible; a review of third-party pricing service methodologies; back testing; in-depth specific analytics on randomly selected issues; and comparison of prices to actual trades for specific securities where observable data exists. In addition, the Company analyzes the primary third-party pricing service's methodologies and related inputs and also evaluates the various types of securities in its investment portfolio to determine an appropriate fair value hierarchy. Finally, the Company also performs additional evaluations when individual prices fall outside tolerance levels when comparing prices received from third-party pricing services.

Fair value measurements for assets and liabilities where there exists limited or no observable market data are calculated using the Company’s own estimates and are categorized as Level 3. These estimates are based on current interest rates, credit spreads, liquidity premium or discount, the economic and competitive environment, unique characteristics of the asset or liability, and other pertinent factors. Therefore, these estimates cannot be determined with precision and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the asset or liability. Additionally, there may be inherent weaknesses in any valuation technique. Further, changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the results of current or future values.

The Company’s own estimates of fair value of fixed maturity and equity securities may be derived in a number of ways, including but not limited to: 1) pricing provided by brokers, where the price indicates reliability as to value; 2) fair values of comparable securities, incorporating a spread adjustment for maturity differences, collateralization, credit quality, liquidity, and other items, if applicable; 3) discounted cash flow models and margin spreads; 4) bond yield curves; 5) observable market prices and exchange transaction information not provided by external pricing services; and 6) statement values provided to the Company by fund managers.

The determination of the value of the Company's liabilities that are reported at fair value in the financial statements is the responsibility of the Company's valuation actuary group, which reports to the Company's Senior Vice President and Actuary.

27

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements–(Continued)

This group manages and creates the policies and processes used to determine the fair value for these liabilities. Methodologies used include internal assumptions and third-party inputs to derive a value, including a risk-neutral option pricing model that incorporates a third-party-developed index that is consistent with the attributes of the product and provides for an approximate match of the volatility measure with the expected life of the underlying contracts. The fair value methodologies and the fair values are reviewed by the Senior Vice President and Actuary, the Principal Accounting Officer, and the Chief Financial Officer. The results of these reviews are made known to the Company's Disclosure Committee and to the Company's Audit Committee. In addition, any significant policy or process changes made are also discussed with the Company's Audit Committee.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements–(Continued)

In 2013, the Company was able to identify significant assumptions or was able to corroborate observable market data for securities that had been level 3 in the previous year. These securities were transfered from Level 3 to Level 2. The Company did not have any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

The Company's primary category of Level 3 fair values is fixed maturity securities, totaling $1.4 million as of December 31, 2013. These assets are valued using comparable security valuations through the unobservable input of estimated discount spreads. Specifically, the Company reviews the values and discount spreads on similar securities for which such information is observable in the market. Estimates of increased discount spreads are then determined based upon the characteristics of the securities being evaluated.

The fair value of the GMWB embedded derivative is calculated using a discounted cash flow valuation model that projects future cash flows under multiple risk neutral stochastic equity scenarios. The risk neutral scenarios are generated using the current swap curve and projected equity volatilities and correlations. The equity correlations are based on historical price observations. For policyholder behavior assumptions, expected lapse and utilization assumptions are used and updated for actual experience. The mortality assumption uses the 2000 US Annuity Basic Table Mortality Table. The present value of cash flows is determined using the discount rate curve, based upon LIBOR plus a credit spread.

The following table presents the valuation method for material financial instruments included in Level 3, as well as the unobservable inputs used in the valuation of those financial instruments at December 31, 2013.

	Fair Value			Valuation Technique	Unobservable Inputs	Range
Embedded Derivative - GMWB	$	(4,703	)	Actuarial cash flow model	Mortality	80% of US Annuity Basic Table (2000)
					Lapse	0%-16% depending on product/duration/funded status of guarantee
					Benefit Utilization	0%-80% depending on age/duration/funded status of guarantee
					Nonperformance Risk	0.47%-1.40%

The GMWB liability is sensitive to changes in observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs include risk-free rates, index returns, volatilities, and correlations. Increases in risk-free rates and equity returns reduce the liability, while increases in volatilities increase the liability. The Company's mortality, lapse, benefit utilization and nonperformance risk adjustment are unobservable. Increases in mortality, lapses and credit spreads used for nonperformance risk reduce the liability, while increases in benefit utilization increase the liability.

The Company estimates that the impact of unobservable inputs is as follows: a 10% increase in the mortality assumption would reduce the liability less than $0.1 million; a 10% decrease in the lapse assumption would increase the liability less than $0.1 million; a 10% increase in the benefit utilization would increase the liability $0.5 million; and a 10 basis point increase in the credit spreads used for non-performance would decrease the liability $0.2 million.

Agent Receivables

The Company has agent receivables which are classified as financing receivables and which are reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts. These trade receivables from agents are long-term in nature and are specifically assessed as to the collectibility of each receivable. The Company's gross agent receivables totaled $3.9 million at December 31, 2013 with an allowance for doubtful accounts totaling $2.2 million. Gross agent receivables totaled $4.0 million with an allowance for doubtful accounts of $2.3 million at December 31, 2012. The Company had no material troubled debt that was restructured or modified during any of the periods presented. The Company has two types of agent receivables including:

• Agent specific loans. At both December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, these loans totaled $1.1 million, with an allowance for doubtful accounts of $0.3 million.

34

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements–(Continued)

• Various agent commission advances and other commission receivables. Gross agent receivables in this category totaled $2.8 million, with an allowance for doubtful accounts of $1.9 million at December 31, 2013. Gross agent receivables totaled $2.9 million and the allowance for doubtful accounts was $2.0 million at December 31, 2012.

Mortgage Loans

The Company considers its mortgage loan portfolio to be long-term financing receivables. Mortgage loans are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium and accrual of discount, less of an allowance for potential future losses. Mortgage loan interest income is recognized on an accrual basis with any premium or discount amortized over the life of the loan. Prepayment and late fees are recorded on the date of collection. Loans in foreclosure, loans considered impaired, or loans past due 90 or more are placed on a non-accrual status.

If a mortgage loan is determined to be on non-accrual status, the Company does not accrue interest income. The loan is independently monitored and evaluated as to potential impairment or foreclosure. This evaluation includes assessing the probability of receiving future cash flows, along with consideration of many of the factors described below. If delinquent payments are made and the loan is brought current, then the Company returns the loan to active status and accrues income accordingly.

Generally, the Company considers its mortgage loans to be a portfolio segment. The Company considers its primary class to be property type. The Company primarily uses loan-to-value as its credit risk quality indicator but also monitors additional secondary risk factors, such as geographic distribution both on a regional and specific state basis. The mortgage loan portfolio segment is presented by property type in a table in Note 4 - Investments, as are geographic distributions by both region and state. These measures are also supplemented with various other analytics to provide additional information concerning potential impairment of mortgage loans and management's assessment of financing receivables.

The following table presents an aging schedule for delinquent payments for both principal and interest at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, by property type.

			Amount of Payments Past Due
	Book Value		30-59 Days		60-89 Days		> 90 Days		Total

Total	$	6,053	$	9	$	—	$	201	$	210

As of December 31, 2013, there were five mortgage loans that were 30 days or more past due, including two that were 120 days past due. The two loans that were 120 days past due are in the process of foreclosure. At December 31, 2012, there were three mortgage loans that were 30 days past due. Subsequently, payment was received on these loans and they were brought current in January 2013.

The allowance for potential future losses is monitored and evaluated at multiple levels with a process that includes, but is not limited to, the factors presented below. Generally, the Company establishes the allowance for potential future losses using the collectively evaluated impairment methodology at an overall portfolio level and then specifically identifies an allowance for potential future losses on loans that contain elevated risk profiles. If the Company determines through its evaluation that a loan has an elevated specific risk profile, it then individually assesses the loan’s risk profile and assigns a specific allowance value based on many factors, including those identified below.

35

Kansas City Life Insurance Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements–(Continued)

Macro-environmental and elevated risk profile considerations:

• Current industry conditions that are affecting the market, including rental and vacancy rates;

• Perceived market liquidity;

• Analysis of the markets and sub-markets in which the Company has mortgage loans;

• Analysis of industry historical loss and delinquency experience;

• Other factors that the Company may perceive as important or critical given its portfolio; and

• Analysis of the Company’s loan portfolio based on loan size concentrations, geographic concentrations, property type concentrations, maturity concentrations, origination loan-to-value concentrations, and borrower concentrations.

Specific mortgage loan level considerations:

• The payment history of each borrower;

• Negative reports from property inspectors; and

• Each loan’s property financial statement including net operating income, debt service coverage, and occupancy level.

The Company has not acquired any mortgage loans with deteriorated credit quality during the years presented.

As part of the Company’s process of monitoring impairments on loans, there are a number of significant risks and uncertainties inherent in this process. These risks include, but are not limited to:

• The risk that the Company’s assessment of a borrower to meet all of its contractual obligations will change based on changes in the credit characteristics of the borrower or property;

• The risk that the economic outlook will be worse than expected or have more of an impact on the borrower than anticipated;

• The risk that the performance of the underlying property could deteriorate in the future;

• The risk that fraudulent, inaccurate, or misleading information could be provided to the Company;

• The risk that the methodology or assumptions used to develop estimates of the portion of the impairment of the loan prove over time to be inaccurate; and

• The risk that other facts and circumstances change such that it becomes more likely than not that the Company will not obtain all of it contractual payments.

The Company did not increase the allowance for potential future losses during 2013. However, the Company reviews the portfolio's risk profile and expected ongoing performance not less often than quarterly.

To the extent the Company's review and valuation determines a loan is impaired, that amount is charged to the allowance for potential future losses and the loan balance is reduced. In the event that a property is foreclosed upon, the carrying value is written down to the lesser of the current fair value, less selling costs, or book value of the property with a charge to the allowance and a corresponding reduction to the mortgage loan asset.

Over the past two years, the Company has had three mortgage loan defaults. One loan was foreclosed in the first quarter of 2012. This foreclosure resulted in an impairment loss of $0.2 million. The other two loan defaults are currently in the process of foreclosure. The Company had no troubled loans that were restructured or modified in 2013 or 2012.

7. Variable Interest Entities

The Company invests in certain affordable housing and real estate joint ventures which are considered to be variable interest entities (VIEs) and are included in Real Estate in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The assets held in affordable housing real estate joint venture VIEs are primarily residential real estate properties that are restricted to provide affordable housing under federal or state programs for varying periods of time. The restrictions primarily apply to the rents that may be paid by tenants residing in the properties during the term of an agreement to remain in the affordable housing program. Investments in real estate joint ventures are equity interests in partnerships or limited liability corporations that may or may not participate in profits or residual value. In certain cases, the Company may issue fixed-rate senior mortgage loan investments secured by properties controlled by VIEs. These investments are classified as mortgage loans in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the income received from such investments is recorded as investment income in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Investments in the affordable housing and real estate joint ventures are interests that will absorb portions of the VIE's expected losses or receive portions of expected residual returns of the VIE's net assets exclusive of variable interests. The Company makes an initial assessment of whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE at the time of the initial investment and on an

36

Kansas City Life Insurance Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements–(Continued)

ongoing basis thereafter. The Company considers many factors when making this determination based upon a review of the underlying investment agreement and other information related to the specific investment. The first factor is whether the Company has the ability to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance. The power to direct the activities of the VIE is generally vested in the managing general partner or managing member of the VIE, which is not the position held by the Company in these investments. Other factors include the entity's equity investment at risk, decision-making abilities, obligations to absorb economic risks, and the right to receive economic rewards of the entity; and the extent to which the Company shares in the VIE's expected losses and residual returns.

Most of the Company’s investment interests in VIEs not in the form of a fixed-rate senior mortgage debt investment are recorded using the equity method, with cash distributions from the VIE and cash contributions to the VIE recorded as decreases or increases, respectively, in the carrying value of the VIE. Certain other equity investments in VIEs, where permitted, are recorded on an amortized cost basis. The operating performance of investments in the VIE is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as investment income or as a component of income tax expense, depending upon the nature and primary design of the investment. The Company evaluates the carrying value of VIEs for impairment on an ongoing basis to assess whether the carrying value is expected to be realized during the anticipated life of the investment.

The following table presents the carrying amount and maximum exposure to loss relating to VIEs for which the Company holds a variable interest, but is not the primary beneficiary, and which had not been consolidated at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The table includes investments in six real estate joint ventures and 25 affordable housing real estate joint ventures at both December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

	2013				2012
	Carrying Amount		Maximum Exposure to Loss		Carrying Amount		Maximum Exposure to Loss
Real estate joint ventures	$	22,104	$	22,104	$	22,440	$	22,440
Affordable housing real estate joint ventures	19,422		61,624		22,704		60,527
Total	$	41,526	$	83,728	$	45,144	$	82,967

The maximum exposure to loss relating to the real estate joint ventures and affordable housing real estate joint ventures, as shown in the table above, is equal to the carrying amounts plus any unfunded equity commitments, exposure to potential recapture of tax credits, guarantees of debt, or other obligations of the VIE with recourse to the Company. Unfunded equity and loan commitments typically require financial or operating performance by other parties and have not yet become due or payable but which may become due in the future.

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had unfunded commitments of $0.2 million and $1.3 million, respectively. In 2013, there were no mortgage loan commitments outstanding to the real estate joint venture VIEs, while commitments totaled $0.3 million in 2012. Unfunded equity commitments for the development of properties owned were $0.2 million and $1.0 million in 2013 and 2012, respectively. The loan commitments are included in Note 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company also has contingent commitments to fund additional equity contributions for operating support to certain real estate joint venture VIEs, which could result in additional exposure to loss. However, the Company is not able to quantify the amount of these contingent commitments.

In addition, the maximum exposure to loss on affordable housing joint ventures at December 31, 2013 and 2012 includes $22.5 million and $14.1 million, respectively, of losses which could be realized if the tax credits received by the VIEs were recaptured. Recapture events would cause the Company to reverse some or all of the benefit previously recognized by the Company or third parties to whom the tax credit interests were transferred. A recapture event can occur at any time during a 15-year required compliance period. The principal causes of recapture include financial default and non-compliance with affordable housing program requirements by the properties controlled by the VIE. The potential exposure due to recapture may be mitigated by guarantees from the managing member or managing partner in the VIE, insurance contracts, or changes in the residual value accruing to the Company's interests in the VIEs.

8. Property and Equipment

37

Kansas City Life Insurance Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements–(Continued)

Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated over estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The home office is depreciated over 25 to 50 years and furniture and equipment is depreciated over 3 to 10 years. The table below provides information at December 31.

	2013			2012
Land	$	766		$	766
Home office complex	20,775			20,828
Furniture and equipment	46,176			45,308
	67,717			66,902
Accumulated depreciation	(50,193		)	(48,559		)
	$	17,524		$	18,343

During 2012, the Company completed a change in accounting estimate related to a long-lived asset. This asset concluded its initial depreciation schedule in the third quarter of 2012. The Company reassessed this asset and its ongoing use and determined that it has a useful life greater than estimated at the time of its initial implementation. The Company also established an updated residual value, consistent with a longer use of the asset. Please see Note 3 - Change in Accounting Principle and Change in Accounting Estimate for additional information. Depreciation expense totaled $1.6 million in 2013 (2012 - $5.1 million; 2011 - $1.5 million).

9. Separate Accounts

Separate account assets and liabilities arise from the sale of variable universal life insurance and variable annuity products. The separate account represents funds segregated for the benefit of certain policyholders who bear the investment risk. The assets are legally segregated and are not subject to claims which may arise from any other business of the Company. The separate account assets and liabilities, which are equal, are recorded at fair value based upon net asset value (NAV). Policyholder account deposits and withdrawals, investment income, and realized investment gains and losses are excluded from the amounts reported in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Revenues to the Company from separate accounts consist principally of contract charges, which include maintenance charges, administrative fees, and mortality and risk charges.

In April 2013, the Company acquired a closed block of variable universal life insurance policies and variable annuity contracts from American Family as discussed in the Reinsurance Transaction section of Note 1. The Company assumed 100% of the separate account liabilities on a modified coinsurance basis and 100% of the general account liabilities on a coinsurance basis. The modified coinsurance portion of the transaction represented approximately $291.6 million in separate account fund balances. The Company receives fees based upon both specific transactions and the fund value of the block of policies, as provided under modified coinsurance transactions. Also, as required under modified coinsurance transaction accounting, the separate account fund balances were not recorded as separate accounts on the Company's financial statements. The coinsurance portion of the transaction represented approximately $23.6 million in fund value and $0.6 million in future policy benefits at acquisition. The fund value and future policy benefits approximated $26.0 million and $0.8 million at December 31, 2013, respectively. The Company recorded these fixed funds accounts as a separate block under its general accounts.

The following table provides a reconciliation of activity within separate account liabilities at December 31.

	2013			2012			2011
Balance at beginning of year	$	340,093		$	316,609		$	339,029
Deposits on variable policyholder contracts	36,471			33,748			33,139

Balance at end of year	$	393,416		$	340,093		$	316,609

The Company has a guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit (GMWB) rider that can be added to new or existing variable annuity contracts. The rider provides an enhanced withdrawal benefit that guarantees a stream of income payments to an owner or annuitant, regardless of the contract account value. The value of variable annuity separate accounts with the GMWB rider was $123.9 million at December 31, 2013 (2012 - $102.5 million), and the guarantee liability was $(4.7) million at December 31, 2013 (2012 - $(1.1) million). The value of the GMWB rider is recorded at fair value. The change in this value is included in policyholder benefits in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The value of variable annuity separate accounts with the GMWB rider is recorded in separate account liabilities, and the value of the rider is included in other policyholder funds in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The total separate account assets were $393.4 million at December 31, 2013 (2012 - $340.1 million). Variable universal life and variable annuity assets comprised 29% and 71% of this amount, respectively, in both 2013 and 2012.

Guarantees are offered under variable universal life and variable annuity contracts: a guaranteed minimum death benefit (GMDB) rider is available on certain variable universal life contracts, and GMDB are provided on all variable annuities. The GMDB rider for variable universal life contracts guarantees the death benefit for specified periods of time, regardless of investment performance, provided cumulative premium requirements are met. The GMDB rider for variable annuity contracts guarantees the death benefit for specified periods of time, regardless of investment performance.

11. Notes Payable

The Company had no notes payable at December 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012.

As a member of the FHLB with a capital investment of $4.8 million, the Company has the ability to borrow on a collateralized basis from the FHLB. The Company received an insignificant amount of dividends on the capital investment in 2013, 2012, and 2011.

The Company has unsecured revolving lines of credit of $60.0 million with two major commercial banks with no balances outstanding at December 31, 2013 and 2012. The lines of credit are at variable interest rates based upon short-term indices, and they will mature in June of 2014. The Company anticipates renewing these lines as they come due.

Management reviews the need for a valuation allowance based on the Company’s anticipated future earnings, reversal of future taxable differences, the available carryback and carryforward periods, tax planning strategies that are prudent and feasible, and the ability and intent to hold securities until their recovery. In management’s opinion, it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefit of its deferred taxes.

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. In general, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state or local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2010. The Company is not currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Tax positions are evaluated at the reporting date to determine whether an unrecognized tax benefit should be recorded. The Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2013, 2012, or 2011.

The Company's policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense (benefit). The Company recognized $0.1 million of tax penalty and interest expense in 2013. The Company did not recognize any expense (benefit) related to interest and penalties during 2012 or 2011. The Company did not have any accrued interest and penalties at December 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012.

The income tax expense is recorded in various places in the Company's financial statements, as detailed below, for the years ended December 31.

	2013			2012			2011

13. Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits

The Company has pension and other postretirement benefit plans covering substantially all its employees for which the measurement date is December 31.

The Kansas City Life Cash Balance Pension Plan (the Plan) was amended effective December 31, 2010 to provide that participants’ accrued benefits will be frozen, and that no further benefits or accruals will be earned after December 31, 2010. Although participants will no longer accrue additional benefits under the Plan at December 31, 2010, participants will continue to earn years of service for vesting purposes under the Plan with respect to their benefits accrued through December 31, 2010. In addition, the cash balance account will continue to earn annual interest. Plan benefits are based on a cash balance account consisting of credits to the account based upon an employee’s years of service, compensation and interest credits on account balances calculated using the greater of the average 30-year Treasury bond rate for November of each year or 5.5%. The benefits expected to be paid in each year from 2014 through 2018 are $11.4 million, $10.3 million, $9.3 million, $9.3 million, and $10.0 million, respectively. The aggregate benefits expected to be paid in the five years from 2019 through 2023 are $48.9 million. The expected benefits to be paid are based on the same assumptions used to measure the Company’s benefit obligation at December 31, 2013 and are the actuarial present value of the vested benefits to which the employee is currently entitled but based upon the expected date of separation or retirement. The 2014 contribution for the plan has not been determined.

The asset allocation of the fair value of pension plan assets compared to the target allocation range at December 31 was:

	2013		2012		Target Allocation
Equity securities	39	%	39	%	33% - 43%
Asset allocation and alternative assets	28	%	29	%	23% - 33%
Debt securities	30	%	31	%	26% - 42%
Cash and cash equivalents	3	%	1	%	0% - 2%

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements–(Continued)

Certain of the Company's pension plan assets consist of investments in pooled separate accounts offered by the Plan. Net asset value (NAV) of the separate accounts is calculated in a manner consistent with GAAP for investment companies and is determinative of their fair value. Several of the separate accounts invest in publicly quoted mutual funds or actively managed stocks. The fair value of the underlying mutual funds or stock is used to determine the NAV of the separate account, which is not publicly quoted. Some of the separate accounts also invest in fixed income securities. The fair value of the underlying securities is based on quoted prices of similar assets and used to determine the NAV of the separate account. Sale of plan assets may be at values less than NAV. Certain redemption restrictions may apply to specific stock and bond funds, including written notices prior to the withdrawal of funds and a potential redemption fee on certain withdrawals.

Hedge fund investments are recorded at net asset value. The Plan's hedge funds invest primarily in other investment funds. The valuation policies of the hedge funds provide that the value of investments in other investment funds be stated at fair value based on the net asset value of the other investment funds and certain redemption restrictions may apply, including a forty-five day prior written notice to withdraw funds.

Plan fiduciaries set investment policies and strategies and oversee its investment allocation, which includes selecting investment managers, commissioning periodic asset-liability studies, and setting long-term strategic targets. Long-term strategic investment objectives include preserving the funded status of the plan and balancing risk and return. Target allocation ranges are guidelines, not limitations, and occasionally plan fiduciaries will approve allocations above or below a target range. The Plan does not expect to return any plan assets to the Company during 2014.

The current assumption for the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is 7.7%. This assumption is determined by analyzing: 1) historical average returns achieved by asset allocation and active management; 2) historical data on the volatility of returns; 3) current yields available in the marketplace; 4) actual returns on plan assets; and 5) current and anticipated future allocation among asset classes. The asset classes used for this analysis are domestic and international equities, investment grade corporate bonds, alternative assets, and cash. The overall rate is derived as a weighted average of the estimated long-term returns on the asset classes represented in the investment portfolio of the plan.

The assumed discount rates used to determine the benefit obligation for pension benefits and postretirement benefits are 4.42% and 4.88%, respectively. The discount rates were determined by reference to the Citigroup Pension Liability Yield Curve on December 31, 2013. Specifically, the spot rate curve represents the rates on zero coupon securities of the quality and type included in the pension index at various maturities. By discounting benefit cash flows at these rates, a notional amount equal to the fair value of a cash flow defeasing portfolio of bonds was determined. The discount rate for benefits was calculated as a single rate giving the same discounted value as the notional amount.

The postretirement medical plans for eligible employees, agents, and their dependents are contributory with contributions adjusted annually. The benefits expected to be paid in each year from 2014 through 2018 are $0.9 million, $1.0 million, $1.1 million, $1.1 million, and $1.2 million, respectively. The aggregate benefits expected to be paid in the five years from 2019 through 2023 are $7.3 million. The expected benefits to be paid are based on the same assumptions used to measure the Company’s benefit obligation at December 31, 2013. Contributions to the plan in 2013 were $1.1 million. The 2014 contribution for the plan is estimated to be $0.9 million. The Company pays these medical costs as they become due and the plan incorporates cost-sharing features. The postretirement plan disclosures included herein do not include the potential impact from the Medicare Act (the Act) that became law in December 2003. The Act introduced a new federal subsidy to sponsors of certain retiree healthcare plans that provide a benefit that is at least actuarially equivalent to Medicare. Since the Company does not provide benefits that are actuarially equivalent to Medicare, the Act did not impact the Company’s disclosures.

The postretirement life insurance plan is non-contributory with level annual payments over the participants' expected service periods. The plan covers only those employees with at least one year of service at December 31, 1997. The benefits in this plan are frozen, using the employees' years of service and compensation at December 31, 1997.

Non-contributory defined contribution retirement plans for eligible general agents and sales agents provide supplemental payments based upon earned agency first year individual life and annuity commissions. Contributions to these plans in 2013 were $0.1 million (2012 - $0.1 million; 2011 - $0.1 million). Non-contributory deferred compensation plans for eligible agents based upon earned first year commissions are also offered. Contributions to these plans in 2013 were $0.3 million (2012 - $0.5 million; 2011 - $0.5 million).

Savings plans for eligible employees and agents match employee and agent contributions up to 8% of salary and 2.5% of agents’ prior year paid commissions, respectively. Contributions to the plan in 2013 were $2.1 million (2012 – $3.2 million; 2011 – $3.3 million). The Company may contribute an additional profit sharing amount up to 4% of salary for eligible employees, depending upon corporate profits. In 2013, the Company made a contribution to the plan under the profit sharing determination of 4% of salary for eligible employees, which totaled $1.3 million. In 2012, the Company made a profit sharing contribution of $1.3 million.

A non-contributory trusteed employee stock ownership plan covers substantially all salaried employees. No contributions have been made to this plan since 1992.

The Company recognizes the funded status of its defined pension and postretirement plans, measured as the difference between plan assets at fair value and the projected benefit obligation, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the funded status that arise during the period, but are not recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost, are recognized within other comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes.

	Pension Benefits		Other Benefits
Actuarial net loss	$	1,718	$	87
Prior service credit	—		(1,147		)

The assumed growth rate of health care costs has a significant effect on the benefit amounts reported, as the table below demonstrates.

	One Percentage Point Change in the Growth Rate
	Increase		Decrease
Service and interest cost components	$	474	$	(366	)
Postretirement benefit obligation	5,278		(4,226		)

For measurement purposes, the annual increase in the per capita cost of covered health care benefits was assumed to be 8.25%, decreasing gradually to 5.0% in 2027 and thereafter.

Included in the Company's Other Benefits is a medical insurance plan for retired agents. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company notified the participants that this benefit was being terminated effective December 31, 2013. This benefit termination required a re-valuation of the plan, which was performed effective June 10, 2013 and resulted in a plan curtailment. The curtailment resulted in the immediate recognition of reduced operating expenses of $0.1 million and a reduced liability of $4.4 million.

During the first quarter of 2012, the Company identified an error related to the amortization period for unrecognized actuarial gains and losses for its pension plan. The Company determined that upon curtailment of the plan on January 1, 2011, the status of the plan participants should have changed from active to inactive. The amortization period was corrected from the average remaining service period of plan participants, approximately ten years, to the average remaining life expectancy of plan participants, approximately 26 years. The Company recognized a $2.0 million pre-tax benefit during 2012 related to the reversal of amortization recorded during 2011.

14. Share-Based Payment

The Company has a long-term incentive plan for senior management that provides a cash award to participants for the increase in the share price of the Company's common stock through units (phantom shares) assigned by the Board of Directors. The cash award is calculated over a three-year interval on a calendar year basis. At the conclusion of each three-year interval, participants will receive a cash award based on the increase in the share price during a defined measurement period, multiplied by the number of units. The increase in the share price will be determined based on the change in the share price from the beginning to the end of the three-year interval. Dividends are accrued and paid at the end of each three-year interval to the extent that they exceed negative stock price appreciation. Plan payments are contingent on the continued employment of the participant unless termination is due to a qualifying event such as death, disability, or retirement. In addition, all payments are lump sum with no deferrals allowed. The Company does not make payments in shares, warrants, or options.

The following table provides information about the outstanding three-year intervals at December 31, 2013.

Defined Measurement Period	Number of Units	Grant Price
2011-2013	200,060	$32.45
2012-2014	206,389	$31.70
2013-2015	212,734	$37.86
2014-2016*	162,063	$48.06

* Effective January 1, 2014

The plan made a payment of $2.4 million during 2013 for the three-year interval ended December 31, 2012. No payments were made during 2012 or 2011 for the three-year intervals ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The cost of compensation charged as an operating expense during 2013 was $3.5 million, net of tax. The cost of compensation charged as an operating expense during 2012 and 2011 were $2.2 million and $0.3 million, net of tax, respectively.

Ceded Reinsurance Arrangements

Old American has a coinsurance agreement that reinsures certain whole life policies issued by Old American prior to December 1, 1986. These policies had a face value of $26.3 million at December 31, 2013 (2012 - $29.6 million). The reserve for future policy benefits ceded under this agreement at December 31, 2013 was $15.1 million (2012 - $16.7 million).

Sunset Life entered into a yearly renewable term reinsurance agreement January 1, 2002, whereby it ceded 80% of its retained mortality risk on traditional and universal life policies. In June 2012, Sunset Life recaptured approximately 9% of the outstanding bulk reinsurance agreement. At December 31, 2013, the insurance in force ceded approximated $1.0 billion (2012 - $1.1 billion) and premiums totaled $7.4 million (2012 - $7.7 million; 2011 - $8.9 million).

Reinsurance recoverables were $191.1 million at year-end 2013, consisting of reserves ceded of $178.7 million and claims ceded of $12.4 million. Reinsurance recoverables were $190.6 million at year end 2012, consisting of reserves ceded of $177.1 million and claims ceded of $13.5 million.

The maximum retention on any one life during 2013 and 2012 was five hundred thousand dollars for ordinary life plans and one hundred thousand dollars for group coverage.

A contingent liability exists with respect to reinsurance, which may become a liability of the Company in the unlikely event that the reinsurers should be unable to meet obligations assumed under reinsurance contracts. The solvency of reinsurers is reviewed annually.

The Company monitors several factors that it considers relevant to satisfy itself as to the ongoing ability of a reinsurer to meet the obligations of the reinsurance agreements. These factors include the credit rating of the reinsurer, significant changes or events of the reinsurer, and any other factors that the Company believes relevant. If the Company believes that any reinsurer would not be able to satisfy its obligations with the Company, a separate contingency reserve may be established. At year-end 2013 and 2012, no reinsurer met these conditions. In addition, the Company will review the credit rating and financial statements of a reinsurer before entering into any new agreements.

Assumed Reinsurance Arrangements

Kansas City Life acquired a block of traditional life and universal life products in 1997 through a 100% coinsurance and servicing arrangement. Investments equal to the statutory policy reserves are held in a trust to secure payment of the estimated liabilities relating to the policies. At December 31, 2013, the block had $1.1 billion of life insurance in force (2012 - $1.2 billion). The block generated life insurance premiums of $2.4 million in 2013 (2012 - $2.6 million; 2011 - $2.8 million).

The Company acquired a block of variable universal life insurance policies and variable annuity contracts from American Family in 2013.

16. Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) is comprised of net income and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) includes the unrealized investment gains or losses on securities available for sale (net of reclassifications for realized investment gains or losses), net of adjustments to DAC and VOBA, future policy benefits, and policyholder account balances (including deferred revenue liability). In addition, other comprehensive income (loss) includes the change in the liability for benefit plan obligations. Other comprehensive income (loss) reflects these items net of tax.

2 (Increases) decreases income tax expense on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

17. Earnings Per Share

Due to the Company’s capital structure and the absence of other potentially dilutive securities, there is no difference between basic and diluted earnings per common share for any of the years reported. The average number of shares outstanding during 2013 was 11,005,799 shares (2012 - 11,095,777 shares; 2011 - 11,419,931 shares). The number of shares outstanding at year-end 2013 was 10,968,839 (2012 - 11,032,857).

18. Segment Information

The Company has three reportable business segments, which are defined based on the nature of the products and services offered: Individual Insurance, Group Insurance, and Old American. The Individual Insurance segment consists of individual insurance products for both Kansas City Life and Sunset Life. In addition, the reinsurance transaction with American Family is included with the Individual Insurance Segment. The Individual Insurance segment is marketed through a nationwide sales force of independent general agents and third-party marketing arrangements. The Group Insurance segment consists of sales of group life, dental, vision, and group disability products. This segment is marketed through a nationwide sales force of independent general agents, group brokers, and third-party marketing arrangements. The Old American segment consists of individual insurance products designed largely as final expense products. These products are marketed through a nationwide general agency sales force with exclusive territories, using direct response marketing to supply agents with leads.

Insurance revenues, as shown in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, consist of premiums and contract charges, less reinsurance ceded. Insurance revenues are defined as “customer revenues” for segment reporting purposes. Other revenues consist primarily of supplementary contract considerations, policyholder dividends left with the Company to accumulate, income received on the sale of low income housing tax credits by a subsidiary of the Company, and fees charged on products and sales from the Company's broker-dealer subsidiary. Customer revenues are added to other revenues, net investment income, and realized investment gains (losses) to reconcile to the Company's total revenues. Benefits and expenses are specifically and directly identified and recorded by segment. Certain expenses may also be allocated as necessary.

Kansas City Life Insurance Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements–(Continued)

Separate investment portfolios are maintained for each of the three life insurance companies. However, investment assets and income are allocated to the Group Insurance segment based upon its cash flows and future policy benefit liabilities. Most home office functions are fully integrated for all segments in order to maximize economies of scale. Therefore, operating expenses are allocated to the segments based upon internal cost studies, which are consistent with industry cost methodologies.

Inter-segment revenues are not material. The Company operates solely in the United States and no individual customer accounts for 10% or more of the Company’s revenue.

2013:
Total revenues	$	123,724	1	$	120,898	1	$	119,449	$	119,522

1 During the third quarter of 2013, the Company identified an immaterial correction of an error in the presentation of total revenues and total benefits and expenses that resulted from the incorrect recognition of premiums related to the conversion of fixed deferred annuity contracts to immediate annuities with life contingencies. The impact of the correction was an equal and offsetting increase to both premiums and policyholder benefits, with no impact to net income or net income per common share. The Company understated revenues and policyholder benefits by $15.7 million in the first quarter of 2013 and $8.4 million in the second quarter of 2013. The numbers reported above have been corrected to reflect these adjustments. The error was insignificant to any other previous periods presented.

20. Statutory Information and Stockholder Dividends Restriction

The table below provides Kansas City Life’s net gain from operations, net income, and capital and surplus (stockholders' equity) on the statutory basis used to report to regulatory authorities for the years ended December 31.

	2013		2012		2011
Net gain from operations	$	535	$	32,102	$	26,856
Net income	335		46,474		22,639
Capital and surplus	330,599		327,444		307,153

Net gain from operations and net income declined in 2013, driven primarily by the statutory accounting treatment of the American family transaction.

Kansas City Life recognizes its 100% ownership in Old American and Sunset Life under the equity method with subsidiary earnings recorded through surplus on a statutory accounting basis. Capital and surplus at December 31, 2013 in the above table includes capital and surplus of $21.1 million and $31.2 million for each of those entities, respectively.

Stockholder dividends may not exceed statutory unassigned surplus. Additionally, under Missouri law, the Company must have the prior approval of the Missouri Director of Insurance in order to pay dividends in any consecutive twelve-month period exceeding the greater of statutory net gain from operations for the preceding year or 10% of statutory stockholders' equity at the end of the preceding year. Kansas City Life, as the parent company, believes it has sufficient cash resources, independent of dividends paid by its affiliates, to satisfy its own stockholder dividend payments. In addition, the Company believes that

60

Kansas City Life Insurance Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements–(Continued)

individually each of the insurance enterprises has sufficient cash flows to satisfy the anticipated cash dividends that are expected to be declared.

The maximum stockholder dividends payable by Kansas City Life without prior approval in 2014 is $33.1 million, 10% of 2013 capital and surplus. The maximum stockholder dividends payable by Old American without prior approval in 2014 is $2.2 million,which is 10% of 2013 capital and surplus. The maximum stockholder dividends payable by Sunset Life without prior approval in 2014 is $4.8 million, the statutory net gain from operations for the preceding year. Each of the individual insurance enterprises believes that the statutory limitations impose no practical restrictions on any of its dividend payment plans.

Insurance companies are monitored and evaluated by state insurance departments as to the financial adequacy of statutory capital and surplus in relation to each company's risks. One such measure is through the risk-based capital (RBC) guidelines. RBC requirements are intended to be used by insurance regulators as an early warning tool to identify deteriorating or weakly capitalized insurance companies for the purpose of initiating regulatory action. RBC guidelines consist of target statutory surplus levels based on the relationship of statutory capital and surplus to the sum of weighted risk exposures. The RBC calculation determines both an authorized control level and a total adjusted capital prepared on the RBC basis. Generally, regulatory action is at 150% of the authorized control level. Each of the three insurance companies is expected to be within the range of 800% to 875%, well in excess of the control level at December 31, 2013.

The Company is required to deposit a defined amount of assets with state regulatory authorities. Such assets had a statutory carrying value of $12.5 million at December 31, 2013 (2012 - $12.7 million; 2011 - $12.9 million).

21. Commitments

In the normal course of business, the Company has open purchase and sale commitments. At December 31, 2013, the Company had purchase commitments to fund mortgage loans of $2.5 million.

Subsequent to December 31, 2013 the Company entered into commitments to fund additional mortgage loans of $6.8 million and to sell real estate for $0.9 million.

22. Contingent Liabilities

The Company and its subsidiaries are, from time to time, involved in litigation, both as a defendant and as a plaintiff. The life insurance industry, including the Company and its insurance subsidiaries, has been subject to an increase in litigation in recent years. Such litigation has been pursued on behalf of purported classes of insurance purchasers, often questioning the conduct of insurers in the marketing of their products.

The Company's broker-dealer and investment advisor subsidiary is involved in a business that involves a substantial risk of liability. Legal and other proceedings involving financial services firms, including the Company's subsidiary, continue to have a significant impact on the industry. Significant matters over the last few years have included registered representative activity and certain types of securities products (particularly private placements and real estate investment products).

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to regular reviews and inspections by state and federal regulatory authorities. State insurance examiners - or independent audit firms engages by such examiners - may, from time to time, conduct examinations or investigations into industry practices and into customer complaints. A regulatory violation discovered during a review, inspection, or investigation could result in a wide range of remedies that could include the imposition of sanctions against the Company, its subsidiaries, or its employees, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

Certain securities policies, contracts, and annuities offered by the Company and its broker-dealer and investment advisor subsidiary are subject to regulation under the federal securities laws administered by the SEC. Federal securities laws contain regulatory restrictions and criminal, administrative, and private remedial provisions. From time to time, the SEC and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") examine or investigate the activities of broker-dealers and investment advisors, including the Company's affiliated broker-dealer and investment advisor subsidiary. These examinations often focus on the activities of registered principals, registered representatives and registered investment advisors doing business through that entity. It is possible that the results of any examination may lead to changes in systems or procedures, payments of fines and penalties, payments to customers, or a combination thereof, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements–(Continued)

The life insurance industry has been the subject of significant regulatory and legal activities regarding the use of the U.S. Social Security Administration's Death Master File (“Death Master File”) in the claims process. The focus of the activity has related to the industry's compliance with state unclaimed property and escheatment laws. Certain states have proposed, and many other states are considering, new legislation and regulations related to unclaimed life insurance benefits and the use of the Death Master File in the claims process. It is possible that audits and/or the enactment of new state laws could result in identifying payments to beneficiaries more quickly than under the current legislative and regulatory standards established for life insurance claims or may provide for additional escheatment of funds deemed abandoned under state laws. The audits could also result in administrative penalties. Given the legal and regulatory uncertainty in this area, it is also possible that life insurers, including the Company, may be subject to claims concerning their business practices. West Virginia, for example, has initiated litigation against a large number of life insurance companies, including Old American, under the abandoned property laws of that state. Based on its analysis to date, the Company believes that it has sufficiently reviewed its existing business and has adequately reserved for contingencies from a change in statute or regulation. Additional costs that cannot be reasonably estimated as of the date of this filing are possible as a result of ongoing regulatory developments and other future requirements related to this matter. Any resulting additional payments or costs could be significant and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

In addition to the specific items above, the Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in, or subject to, other claims or legal actions related to insurance and investment products. Some of these claims and legal actions are in jurisdictions where juries are given substantial latitude in assessing damages, including punitive damages.

Although no assurances can be given and no determinations can be made at this time, management believes that the ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these regulatory matters, legal actions, and other claims would not have a material effect on the Company's business, results of operations, or financial position.

In accordance with applicable accounting guidelines, the Company establishes an accrued liability for litigation and regulatory matters when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and estimable. As a litigation or regulatory matter develops, it is evaluated on an ongoing basis, often in conjunction with outside counsel, as to whether the matter presents a loss contingency that meets conditions indicating the need for accrual and/or disclosure. If and when a loss contingency related to litigation or regulatory matters is deemed to be both probable and estimable, the Company establishes an accrued liability. This accrued liability is then monitored for further developments that may affect the amount of the accrued liability.

While the Company makes every effort to appropriately accrue liability for litigation and other legal proceedings, the outcome of such matters (including any amount of settlement, judgment or fine) is inherently difficult to predict. This difficulty arises from the need to gather all relevant facts (which may or may not be available) and to apply those facts to complex legal principles. Based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that any litigation, proceeding or other matter to which it is a party or otherwise involved will have a material adverse effect on its financial position, the results of its operations, or its cash flows. However, an adverse development or an increase in associated legal fees could be material in a particular period depending, in part, on the Company's operating results in that period.

23. Guarantees and Indemnifications

The Company is subject to various indemnification obligations issued in conjunction with certain transactions, primarily assumption reinsurance agreements, stock purchase agreements, mortgage servicing agreements, tax credit assignment agreements, construction and lease guarantees, and borrowing agreements whose terms range in duration and often are not explicitly defined. Generally, a maximum obligation is not explicitly stated. Therefore, the overall maximum amount of the obligation under the indemnifications cannot be reasonably estimated. The Company is unable to estimate with certainty the ultimate legal and financial liability with respect to these indemnifications. The Company believes that the likelihood is remote that material payments would be required under such indemnifications and therefore such indemnifications would not result in a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations.

24. Subsequent Events

On January 27, 2014, the Kansas City Life Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.27 per share, paid on February 12, 2014 to stockholders of record on February 6, 2014.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Kansas City Life Insurance Company:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kansas City Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three‑year period ended December 31, 2013. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited financial statement schedules I to V. We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedules, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Assessment of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedules and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Kansas City Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three‑year period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein. Also in our opinion, Kansas City Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

As discussed in note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2012, the Company modified the types of costs incurred that can be capitalized when issuing or renewing insurance contracts due to the prospective adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010‑26, Accounting for Costs Associated with Acquiring or Renewing Insurance Contracts.

1.      Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Kansas City Life Variable Annuity Separate Account (the Account) is a separate account of Kansas City Life Insurance Company (KCL).  This account is presented herein and marketed as Century II Variable Annuity (which includes Century II Variable Annuity, Century II Affinity Variable Annuity and Century II Single Premium Affinity Variable Annuity) and Century II Freedom Variable Annuity.  The Account is registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.  Under applicable insurance law, the assets and liabilities of the Account are clearly identified and distinguished from KCL’s other assets and liabilities.  The portion of the Account’s assets applicable to the variable annuity contracts is not available to service the liabilities arising out of any other business KCL may be conducting.

All deposits received by the Account have been directed by the contract owners into subaccounts that invest in 48 series-type mutual funds, as listed below with each fund’s objective, or into KCL’s Fixed Account.  The underlying mutual fund options are not available to the general public directly. The underlying mutual funds are available as investment options in variable annuity contracts issued by KCL.

Some of the underlying mutual funds have been established by investment advisers which manage publicly traded mutual funds having similar names and investment objectives. While some of the underlying mutual funds may be similar to, and may in fact be modeled after, publicly traded mutual funds, the underlying mutual funds are not otherwise directly related to any publicly traded mutual fund. Consequently, the investment performance of publicly traded mutual funds and any corresponding underlying mutual funds may differ.

Risks and Uncertainties

Certain risks and uncertainties are inherent to the Account’s day-to-day operations and to the process of preparing its financial statements.  The more significant of those risks and uncertainties, as well as the Account’s method for attempting to mitigate the risks, are presented below and throughout the notes to the financial statements.

Financial Statements - The preparation of financial statements on the basis of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period.  These estimates are inherently subject to change and actual results could differ from these estimates.

Investments - The Account is exposed to risks that issuers of securities owned by the series-type mutual funds will default, or that interest rates will change and cause a decrease in the value of the investments.  The market value of the investments and their investment performance, including the realization of gains or losses, may vary depending on economic and market conditions.  Management attempts to mitigate these risks by offering the investor a variety of investment options, fund prospectuses, quarterly personal investment statements and annual financial statements.

Reinvestment of Dividends

Interest and dividend income and capital gain distributions paid by the mutual funds to the Account are reinvested in additional shares of each respective subaccount.

Page 26

Kansas City Life Variable Annuity Separate Account

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Federal Income Taxes

The Account is treated as part of KCL for federal income tax purposes.  Under current interpretations of existing federal income tax law, no income taxes are payable on investment income or capital gain distributions received by the Account from the underlying funds.  Any applicable taxes will be the responsibility of contract holders or beneficiaries upon termination or withdrawal.

Investment Valuation

Investments in mutual fund shares are reported in the statement of net assets at fair value using net asset values (NAV) as provided by the mutual fund sponsors at the end of each trading day.  The average cost method is used to determine realized gains and losses.  Transactions are recorded on a trade date basis.  Income from dividends and gains from realized gain distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

All new accounting standards and updates of existing standards issued in 2013 and 2012 were considered by management and did not relate to accounting policies and procedures pertinent to the Account at this time or were not expected to have a material impact to the financial statements.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent events have been evaluated through April 15, 2014, the date that the financial statements have been issued.

3. Fair Value Measurement

The Account categorizes its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the inputs and assumptions used to determine the fair value. These levels are as follows:

Level 1 – Valuations are based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

Level 2 – Valuations are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.  Valuations are obtained from third-party pricing services or inputs that are observable or derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 – Valuations are generated from techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market.  These unobservable assumptions reflect the Account’s assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  Valuation techniques include the use of discounted cash flow models, spread-based models, and similar techniques, using the best information available in the circumstances.

As of December 31, 2013 all assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis totaling $279,362 were Level 2 assets.  The Account did not have any transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

NAV of the investments in mutual funds are calculated in a manner consistent with U.S. GAAP for investment companies and is determinative of their fair value.  Several of the separate accounts invest in publicly quoted mutual funds or actively managed stocks.  The fair value of the underlying mutual funds or stock is used to determine the NAV of the separate account, which is not publicly quoted.  Some of the separate accounts also invest in fixed income securities.  The fair values of the underlying securities are based on quoted prices for similar assets or other valuation methods using market observable inputs, and are used to determine the NAV of the investments in mutual funds.  Sales of separate account assets may be at asset values less than NAV and certain redemption restrictions may apply.

4. Contract Charges

Century II Variable Annuity

Mortality and expense risk assumed by KCL are compensated for by a fee equivalent to an annual rate of 1.25% of the asset value of the subaccounts of each contract, including 0.70% for assuming mortality risk and 0.55% for expense risk.  Additionally, KCL is compensated for administrative expenses by a charge based on an annual rate of 0.15% of the asset value of each contract.  These charges are assessed for each subaccount through the reduction of unit values.

KCL deducts an administrative fee of $30 per year for each contract under $50,000.  Other fees are deducted from each contract when certain events occur, such as the seventh fund transfer in a contract year.  These fees are assessed through the reduction of units from the contract.

When applicable, an amount for state premium taxes is deducted as provided by pertinent state law upon surrender.

For the Century II Variable Annuity, a contingent deferred sales charge is assessed against certain withdrawals during the first seven years of the contract, declining from 7% in the first three years to 2% in the seventh year.  For the Century II Affinity Variable Annuity, a contingent deferred sales charge is assessed against certain withdrawals during the first eight years of the contract, declining from 8% in the first two years to 2% in the eighth year.  During 2013, $208,000 (2012 - $290,000) was assessed in surrender charges.  Other contract charges, primarily annual administrative fees, totaled $4,784,000 (2012 - $4,310,000).

Century II Freedom Annuity

Mortality and expense risk assumed by KCL are compensated for by a fee equivalent to an annual rate of 1.40% of the asset value of the subaccounts of each contract.  Additionally, KCL is compensated for administrative expenses by a charge based on an annual rate of 0.25% of the asset value of each contract.  These charges are assessed for each subaccount through the reduction of unit values.

When applicable, an amount for state premium taxes is deducted as provided by pertinent state law upon surrender.

For the Century II Freedom Variable Annuity, no contingent deferred sales charge nor surrender charges are assessed.  During 2013, $110,000 (2012 - $105,000) was assessed in other contract charges.

a   The investment income ratio represents the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the subaccount from the underlying mutual fund, net of management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by the average daily net assets.  These ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense charges, that are assessed against contract owner accounts either through reductions in the unit values or the redemption of units.  The recognition of investment income by the subaccount is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying fund in which the subaccounts invest.
b These amounts represent the annualized contract expenses of the separate account, consisting primarily of mortality and expense charges, for each period indicated.  The ratios include only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values.  Charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units and expenses of the underlying fund have been excluded.
c  These amounts represent the total return for the periods indicated, including changes in the value of the underlying fund, and expenses assessed through the reduction of unit values. These ratios do not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units.  The total return is calculated for each period indicated or from the effective date through the end of the reporting period. As the total return is presented as a range of minimum to maximum values, based on the product grouping representing the minimum and maximum expense ratio amounts, some individual contract total returns are not within the ranges presented.

a   The investment income ratio represents the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the subaccount from the underlying mutual fund, net of management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by the average daily net assets.  These ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense charges, that are assessed against contract owner accounts either through reductions in the unit values or the redemption of units.  The recognition of investment income by the subaccount is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying fund in which the subaccounts invest.
b  These amounts represent the annualized contract expenses of the separate account, consisting primarily of mortality and expense charges, for each period indicated.  The ratios include only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values.  Charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units and expenses of the underlying fund have been excluded.
c  These amounts represent the total return for the periods indicated, including changes in the value of the underlying fund, and expenses assessed through the reduction of unit values. These ratios do not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units.  Investment options with a date notation indicate the effective date of that investment option in the variable account. The total return is calculated for each period indicated or from the effective date through the end of the reporting period. As the total return is presented as a range of minimum to maximum values, based on the product grouping representing the minimum and maximum expense ratio amounts, some individual contract total returns are not within the ranges presented.
d  This fund was added effective May 1, 2010.
