Florida Statute 627.4554(9)
Florida Statute 627.4554(9) (the “Law”) limits the time period during which we may assess a withdrawal charge under Contracts issued in the state of Florida. The Law became effective January 1, 2011. This Supplement provides information regarding the impact of the Law on the withdrawal charges imposed under Florida issued Contracts.
1. We revise the third paragraph under “IV. Charges, Deductions and Adjustments — Adjustments And Charges Upon Withdrawals” as follows:
    We will not apply withdrawal charges on distributions made from a one-year or a two-year subsequent guarantee period. For Contracts issued in Florida on or after January 1, 2011 to residents aged 65 years or older, we will not apply withdrawal charges on any withdrawals taken after the tenth Contract Anniversary.
2. We add a new footnote below the tables that appear in Appendix B: “Withdrawal Charge Schedule,” as follows:
*   The Withdrawal Charge Schedule applicable during any Subsequent Guarantee Period does not apply to Contracts issued in Florida on or after January 1, 2011 to senior citizens (age 65 years or older on the Contract issue date) past the tenth Contract Anniversary.
