Product highlights Meet Richard • • Needs $50, 000 per year to cover his total annual retirement expenses. He will receive $20, 000 in guaranteed income from Social Security and a pension, leaving a $30, 000 income gap. He has $750, 000 in retirement assets earmarked for retirement income and he is considering two different income strategies. Scenario 1: Unprotected systematic withdrawal strategy In this scenario, Richard takes a $30, 000 systematic withdrawal from his $750, 000 portfolio to cover the income gap. • His portfolio withdrawal rate – how much he withdraws from his retirement savings portfolio each year – is 4% ($30, 000/$750, 000). • His income reliability ratio – how much he can rely on his portfolio for guaranteed income – is 40% ($20, 000/$50, 000). After 20% decline in account value After 0% 0% decline in in account value After Portfolio balance: $750, 000 Portfolio withdrawal rate: 4% Income reliability ratio: 40% Social Security/ Pension $20, 000 Portfolio balance: $600, 000 Portfolio withdrawal rate: Portfolio withdrawal $30, 000 5% Income reliability ratio: 40% Assuming a 20% decline in account value, his new portfolio withdrawal rate is 5%, putting greater pressure on his portfolio to provide lifetime income. In today’s environment, Richard’s portfolio withdrawal rate and low income reliability ratio increase his probability of outliving his savings. If the market declines, even more pressure will be put on his portfolio to provide lasting income while using a withdrawal rate that may not be sustainable over the long term.

Product highlights Scenario 2: Protected income floor strategy with Assured Edge Income Achiever • Richard repositions $200, 000 of his overall portfolio to Assured Edge Income Achiever fixed annuity to generate an annual guaranteed lifetime income amount of $11, 400, assuming a current income percentage of 5. 7% Single Life. • This strategy reduces his income gap from $30, 000 to $18, 600. After 20% decline in account value Portfolio balance: $750, 000 Social Security/ Pension $20, 000 • Investments: $550, 000 • Annuity: $200, 000 Portfolio withdrawal rate: 3. 4% Income reliability ratio: Portfolio balance: $640, 000 Portfolio withdrawal $18, 600 Assured Edge $12, 550 $11, 400 63% • Investments: $440, 000 • Annuity: $200, 000 Portfolio withdrawal rate: 4. 3% Income reliability ratio: 63% In the event of a portfolio decline of 20%, Richard’s withdrawal rate would be 4. 3% (vs. the 5% associated with the systematic withdrawal strategy, post decline). The result? Richard is protected and: • Pressure is taken off of Richard’s investment portfolio withdrawal strategy • His income reliability ratio has increased from 40% to 63% What’s more, with Assured Edge Income Achiever, if Richard did not need income right away, he would also have the opportunity to increase his guaranteed lifetime income amount based on a 6% income growth rate every year he doesn’t take a withdrawal until lifetime withdrawals begin.

Guaranteed lifetime income How does the GLWB work? Covered person(s) § The initial guaranteed lifetime income amount (GLIA) is set at issue. § The initial GLIA is calculated by multiplying the total eligible premiums by an income percentage, as determined by client’s age at issue and choice of single or joint coverage. § Here a few sample ages and income percentages.

Guaranteed lifetime income The maximum amount that the client may withdraw each contract year

Guaranteed lifetime income The maximum amount that the client may withdraw each contract year under the guaranteed lifetime withdrawal benefit is referred to as the guaranteed lifetime income amount (GLIA). Here’s how we calculate the initial guaranteed lifetime income amount: Initial Guaranteed Lifetime Income Amount (GLIA) 5. 7% X Income percentage $100, 000 Eligible premium = $5, 700 Per year Hypothetical example assumes a single covered person with a $100, 000 premium • • Clients can elect to activate lifetime income when the time is right for them Once lifetime income is activated, clients can count on guaranteed income for as long as they – or they and their spouse – live, based on the options chosen This hypothetical example is for illustrative purposes only. Not an actual case and intended solely to depict how the product features might work. It does not reflect the value of any specific contract. NOTE: GLIA is recalculated at each contract anniversary. A change in covered person(s) will also cause the GLIA to be recalculated. FOR FINANCIAL PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY- NOT FOR PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION. 16

Guaranteed lifetime income A hypothetical example • $100, 000 eligible premium • No withdrawals taken • Hypothetical income percentage: 5. 7% • Guaranteed lifetime income • Income growth rate: 6% withdrawals begin in five years • Step 1 First, we calculate the initial guaranteed lifetime income amount (GLIA): Step 2 Then, we calculate the annual income credit: Step 3 We recalculate the GLIA when clients elect to begin taking lifetime income withdrawals: Initial Guaranteed Lifetime Income Amount (GLIA) AT AGE 65 5. 7% X Guaranteed Lifetime Income Amount (GLIA) AT AGE 65 $100, 000 = Income percentage Eligible premium X $5, 700 Income Credit AT AGE 65 No changes in covered persons Initial GLIA $5, 700 Initial GLIA 6% Per year = Income growth rate + $342 X 5 Income credit X deferral years $5, 700 = $342 Per year until lifetime income activation $7, 410 Per year This hypothetical example is for illustrative purposes only. Not an actual case and intended solely to depict how the product features might work. It does not reflect the value of any specific contract. NOTE: GLIA is recalculated at each contract anniversary. Withdrawals before activating lifetime income will reduce the income credit and the GLIA proportionally, thereby reducing future guaranteed lifetime income.

The initial GLIA is set at the end of the eligible premium period. This hypothetical example demonstrates the client being able to grow their future income payments based on a 6% income growth rate each year until lifetime income is activated. By deferring payments for seven years, the annual GLIA increases from $5, 700 to $8, 094. This hypothetical example is for illustrative purposes only.

Guaranteed lifetime income Summary information for the GLWB § Client MUST submit an income

Guaranteed lifetime income Summary information for the GLWB § Client MUST submit an income activation form to begin receiving lifetime income. § The income credit, based on a 6% income growth rate, will be applied in every year until the client elects to activate income. Income withdrawals or annuitization must begin by age 95, otherwise the contract must be surrendered. § All withdrawals, including Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs), prior to beginning income will reduce the GLIA and the income credit proportionately thereby reducing future income. § After activating income, withdrawals above the GLIA (except for permitted RMDs) will be considered excess withdrawals. Withdrawals other than lifetime income may reduce lifetime benefits in an amount greater than the actual withdrawal if the contract value remaining is less than the GLIA. Additionally, if a withdrawal other than lifetime income reduces your contract value to zero, the contract and GLWB will terminate. § At any time, if a change in covered person occurs, the income percentage will be adjusted, resulting in a recalculation of the GLIA. This may increase or decrease the GLIA. FOR FINANCIAL PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY- NOT FOR PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION. 19

Guaranteed lifetime income Withdrawals Before lifetime income is activated Withdrawals (including RMDs) will reduce

Guaranteed lifetime income Withdrawals Before lifetime income is activated Withdrawals (including RMDs) will reduce the income credit and the GLIA proportionally, thereby reducing future guaranteed lifetime income.

Permitted RMDs are based on this contract and do not exceed the greater of the GLIA or the RMD as calculated by us. § Withdrawals in excess of permitted free withdrawal amounts: − Withdrawals during the 10 -year (nine-year in California) initial interest rate guarantee term may be subject to withdrawal charges and any applicable MVA. − Withdrawals other than lifetime income may reduce lifetime benefits in an amount greater than the actual withdrawal if the contract value remaining is less than the GLIA. − If a withdrawal other than lifetime income reduces the contract value to zero, then the contract and withdrawal benefit terminate.
