Important Information You Should Consider About the American Legacy III® Plus Variable Annuity Contract 
FEES, EXPENSES, AND ADJUSTMENTS
Location in
Prospectus
Are There
Charges or
Adjustments for
Early
Withdrawals?
Yes:
A surrender charge may apply to a surrender or withdrawal of a Purchase Payment prior
to the 9th anniversary since the Purchase Payment was invested, up to 8.5% of the
amount withdrawn, declining to 0% over that time period. For example, if make a
withdrawal of $100,000 during the first year after your Purchase Payment, you could be
assessed a charge of up to $8,500 on the Purchase Payment withdrawn. This loss will
be greater if there is also a negative Interest Adjustment, taxes, or tax penalties. A
surrender charge will not apply if your withdrawal is made after the 9th anniversary
since a Purchase Payment was invested.
If amounts are withdrawn, surrendered, or transferred from the fixed account before the
expiration of a Guaranteed Period, an Interest Adjustment may apply, which may be
negative. A negative Interest Adjustment will result in the loss of some or all previously-
credited interest in excess of the guaranteed minimum interest rate, if any. Your loss will
be greater if you also have to pay a surrender charge, taxes, or tax penalties.

Appendix B - Investment Requirements
If you purchase a Living Benefit Rider (except i4LIFE® Advantage without Guaranteed Income Benefit), you will be subject to Investment Requirements. This requirement means you will be limited in your choice of Subaccount investments and in how much you can invest in certain Subaccounts. This also means you will not be able to allocate Contract Value to all of the Subaccounts that are available to Contractowners who have not elected a Living Benefit Rider. We impose Investment Requirements to reduce the risk of investment losses that may require us to use our own assets to make guaranteed payments under a Living Benefit Rider.
If you elect a Living Benefit Rider, Investment Requirements apply whether you purchase the rider at Contract issue or add it to an existing Contract. The Living Benefit Rider you purchase and the date of purchase will determine which Investment Requirements Option will apply to your Contract. See Option 1, Option 2, and Option 3 below. Currently, if you purchase i4LIFE® without Guaranteed Income Benefit, you will not be subject to any Investment Requirements, although we reserve the right to impose Investment Requirements for this rider in the future. If we do exercise our right to do so, you will have to reallocate your Account Value subject to such requirements.
Certain of the underlying funds that are included in the Investment Requirements, including funds managed by an adviser affiliated with us, employ risk management strategies that are intended to control the funds' overall volatility, and for some funds, to also reduce the downside exposure of the funds during significant market downturns.
These funds are included under Investment Requirements in part because the reduction in volatility helps us to reduce the risk of investment losses that may require us to use our own assets to make guaranteed payments under a Living Benefit Rider. At the same time, risk management strategies in periods of high market volatility or other market conditions, could limit your participation in market gains. This may conflict with your investment objectives by limiting your ability to maximize potential growth of your Contract Value and, in turn, the value of any guaranteed benefit that is tied to investment performance. You should consult your registered representative to determine whether these funds align with your investment objectives. For more information about the funds and the investment strategies they employ, please refer to the funds' current prospectuses. Fund prospectuses are available by contacting us.
Under each option, we have divided the Subaccounts of your Contract into groups and have specified the minimum or maximum percentages of Contract Value that must be in each group at the time you purchased the rider (or when the rider Investment Requirements are enforced, if later). In addition, depending on when you purchased your Contract, you may allocate your Contract Value and Purchase Payments in accordance with certain asset allocation models, as noted below. If you terminate an asset allocation model, you must follow the Investment Requirements applicable to your rider. Some investment options are not available to you if you purchase certain riders. The Investment Requirements may not be consistent with an aggressive investment strategy. You should consult with your registered representative to determine if the Investment Requirements are consistent with your investment objectives.
The chart below is provided to help you determine which option of Investment Requirements, if any, applies to the Living Benefit Rider you purchased. If you do not elect a Living Benefit Rider, the Investment Requirements will not apply to your Contract. Different Investment Requirements may apply if you terminate one rider and elect another rider.

Investment Requirements - Option 1
No more than 35% of your Contract Value (includes Account Value if i4LIFE® Advantage is in effect) can be invested in the following
Subaccounts ("Limited Subaccounts") (Note: not all Subaccounts are available with all contracts): 
American Funds® IS American High-Income Trust
American Funds® IS Capital Income Builder
American Funds® IS Capital World Growth and Income Fund
American Funds® IS Global Growth Fund
American Funds® IS Global Small Capitalization Fund
American Funds® IS International Fund
American Funds® IS International Growth and Income Fund
American Funds® IS New World Fund
American Funds® IS Portfolio Series - American Funds Global Growth Portfolio
American Funds® IS U.S. Small and Mid Cap Equity Fund
All other Subaccounts will be referred to as "Non-Limited Subaccounts".
You can select the percentages of Contract Value, if any, allocated to the Limited Subaccounts, but the cumulative total investment in all the Limited Subaccounts cannot exceed 35% of the total Contract Value. On each quarterly anniversary of the effective date of the rider, if the Contract Value in the Limited Subaccounts exceeds 35%, Lincoln will rebalance your Contract Value so that the Contract Value in the Limited Subaccounts is 30%. If you are enrolled in portfolio rebalancing, the cumulative total investment in all the Limited Subaccounts cannot exceed 35% of total Contract Value. If your current portfolio rebalancing does not adhere to this requirement, your portfolio rebalancing program will be terminated.
If rebalancing is required, the Contract Value in excess of 30% will be removed from the Limited Subaccounts on a pro rata basis and invested in the remaining Non-Limited Subaccounts on a pro rata basis according to the Contract Value percentages in the Non-Limited Subaccounts at the time of the reallocation. If there is no Contract Value in the Non-Limited Subaccounts at that time, portfolio rebalancing will be paused until updated allocation instructions are received from you. We will provide you with notice of such change. Confirmation of the rebalancing will appear on your quarterly statement.
We may move Subaccounts on or off the Limited or Non-Limited Subaccount list, exclude Subaccounts and asset allocation models from being available for investment, change the number of Limited Subaccount groups, change the percentages of Contract Value allowed in the Limited or Non-Limited Subaccounts or change the frequency of the Contract Value rebalancing, at any time, in our sole discretion. We will not make changes more than once per calendar year. You will be notified at least 30 days prior to the date of any change. We may make such modifications at any time when we believe the modifications are necessary to protect our ability to provide the guarantees under these riders. Our decision to make modifications will be based on several factors, including the general market conditions and the style and investment objectives of the Subaccount investments.
At the time you receive notice of a change or when you are notified that we will begin enforcing the Investment Requirements, you may:
1.
submit your own reallocation instructions for the Contract Value in excess of 35% in the Limited Subaccounts; or
2.
take no action and be subject to the quarterly rebalancing as described above; or
3.
terminate the applicable rider immediately, without waiting for a termination event if you do not wish to be subject to these Investment Requirements.
Investment Requirements - Option 2
You can select the percentages of Contract Value (includes Account Value if i4LIFE® Advantage Guaranteed Income Benefit is in effect) to allocate to individual Subaccounts within each group, but the total investment for all Subaccounts in a group must comply with the specified minimum or maximum percentages for that group.
In accordance with these Investment Requirements, you agree to be automatically enrolled in the portfolio rebalancing option under your Contract and thereby authorize us to automatically rebalance your Contract Value on a periodic basis. On each quarterly anniversary of the effective date of the rider, we will rebalance your Contract Value, proportionately, based on your allocation instructions in effect at the time of the rebalancing. Any reallocation of Contract Value among the Subaccounts made by you prior to a rebalancing date will become your allocation instructions for rebalancing purposes. Confirmation of the rebalancing will appear on your quarterly statement. We reserve the right to change the rebalancing frequency, at any time, in our sole discretion. We will not make changes more than once per calendar year. You will be notified at least 30 days prior to the date of any change in frequency. If we rebalance Contract Value from the Subaccounts and your allocation instructions do not comply with the Investment Requirements, portfolio rebalancing will be paused, and any subsequent transfer requests will be considered not in Good Order until updated allocation instructions are received. These investments will become your allocation instructions until you tell us otherwise.
We may change the list of Subaccounts in a group, change the number of groups, change the minimum or maximum percentages of Contract Value allowed in a group or change the investment options that are or are not available to you, at any time, in our sole discretion. We will not make changes more than once per calendar year. You will be notified at least 30 days prior to the date of any change. We may make such modifications at any time when we believe the modifications are necessary to protect our ability to provide the
B-2
guarantees under these riders. Our decision to make modifications will be based on several factors including the general market conditions and the style and investment objectives of the Subaccount investments.
At the time you receive notice of a change to the Investment Requirements, you may:
1.
submit your own reallocation instructions for the Contract Value, before the effective date specified in the notice, so that the Investment Requirements are satisfied;
2.
if you take no action, such changes will apply only to additional Purchase Payments or to future transfers of Contract Value. You will not be required to change allocations to existing Subaccounts, but you will not be allowed to add money, by either an additional Purchase Payment or a contract transfer, in excess of the new percentage applicable to a Subaccount or Subaccount group. This does not apply to Subaccounts added to Investment Requirements on or after June 30, 2009. For Subaccounts added to Investment Requirements on or after June 30, 2009, you may be subject to rebalancing as described above. If this results in a change to your allocation instructions, then these will be your new allocation instructions until you tell us otherwise; or
3.
terminate the applicable rider immediately, without waiting for a termination event if you do not wish to be subject to the new terms of the Investment Requirements.
At this time, the Subaccount groups are as follows:

Investment Requirements - Option 3
For all Living Benefit Riders, you can select the percentages of Contract Value (or Account Value if i4LIFE® Advantage Guaranteed Income Benefit is in effect) to allocate to individual Subaccounts within each group, but the total investment for all Subaccounts within the group must comply with the specified minimum or maximum percentages for that group.
You must hold the rider for a minimum period of time after election (the minimum time is specified under the Termination section of each rider). During this time, you will be required to adhere to the Investment Requirements. After this time, failure to adhere to the Investment Requirements will result in termination of the rider.
Certain Living Benefit Riders guarantee you the right to transition to a version of the i4LIFE® Guaranteed Income Benefit even if that version is no longer available for purchase. If you transition to i4LIFE® Guaranteed Income Benefit, the Investment Requirements under your Prior Living Benefit Rider continue to apply. See i4LIFE® Advantage - i4LIFE® Advantage Guaranteed Income Benefit Transitions for a discussion of this transition.
If you purchase a Living Benefit Rider (except i4LIFE® Advantage without Guaranteed Income Benefit), you agree to be automatically enrolled in the portfolio rebalancing option under your Contract and thereby authorize us to automatically rebalance your Contract Value on a periodic basis. On each quarterly anniversary of the effective date of the rider, we will rebalance your Contract Value, proportionately, based on your allocation instructions in effect at the time of the rebalancing. Any reallocation of Contract Value among the Subaccounts made by you prior to a rebalancing date will become your allocation instructions for rebalancing purposes. Confirmation of the rebalancing will appear on your quarterly statement. If we rebalance Contract Value from the Subaccounts and your allocation instructions do not comply with the Investment Requirements, portfolio rebalancing will be paused, and any subsequent transfer requests will be considered not in Good Order until updated allocation instructions are received. These investments will become your allocation instructions until you tell us otherwise.
For certain Living Benefit Riders, the Subaccounts of your Contract are divided into groups and have specified minimum or maximum percentages of Contract Value that must be in each group at the time you purchase the rider. Please review the Investment Requirements below to determine which Investment Requirements apply to your rider. You can select the percentages of Contract Value to allocate to individual Subaccounts within each group, but the total investment for all Subaccounts within the group must comply with the specified minimum or maximum percentages for that group. We may change the list of Subaccounts in a group, change the number of groups, change the minimum or maximum percentages of Contract Value allowed in a group, change the investment options that are or are not available to you, or change the rebalancing frequency at any time in our sole discretion. For other Living Benefit Riders, we may only make certain Subaccounts available to you, which are listed below.
For all Living Benefit Riders, we may add or remove Subaccounts at any time in our sole discretion. You will be notified at least 30 days prior to the date of any change. We may make such modifications at any time when we believe the modifications are necessary to protect our ability to provide the guarantees under these riders. Our decision to make modifications will be based on several factors, including the general market conditions and the style and investment objectives of the subaccount investments.
At the time you receive notice of a change to the Investment Requirements, you may:
1.
submit your own reallocation instructions for the Contract Value, before the effective date specified in the notice, so that the Investment Requirements are satisfied; or
2.
take no action and be subject to the quarterly rebalancing as described above. If this results in a change to your allocation instructions, then these will be your new allocation instructions until you tell us otherwise; or
3.
terminate the applicable rider immediately, without waiting for a termination event, if you do not wish to be subject to these Investment Requirements.
