GLWB Payments.
GLWB Benefit Base - The amount upon which the GLWB Payment is based.
GLWB Rider Fee - An annual fee assessed against the GLWB Benefit Base while the Guaranteed

IMPORTANT INFORMATION YOU SHOULD CONSIDER
ABOUT THE TRUSTAGE® ZONE INCOME ANNUITY
FEES, EXPENSES, AND ADJUSTMENTS
Location in
Prospectus
Are There Charges
or Adjustments for
Early Withdrawals?
Yes. If you surrender your Contract or take an Excess
Withdrawal during the first six Contract Years, you may pay a
Surrender Charge of up to 9% (up to 8% for Contracts issued
on or after May 24, 2024) of the amount withdrawn in excess
of the Annual Free Withdrawal Amount. For example, if you
were to surrender your Contract during the first Contract Year,
you could pay a Surrender Charge of up to $8,100 on a
$100,000 investment. This loss will be greater if there is a
negative Market Value Adjustment, income taxes, or an
additional tax.
If you surrender your Contract or take an Excess Withdrawal
on any day other than every sixth Contract Anniversary, we
will apply a Market Value Adjustment (which may be positive
or negative) to the amount being withdrawn that is in excess
of the Annual Free Withdrawal Amount. A negative Market
Value Adjustment could significantly decrease the amount
you receive from an Excess Withdrawal or surrender. In
extreme circumstances, losses from the Market Value
Adjustment could be as high as 90% of your Contract Value
per year ($90,000 of a $100,000 investment).

Are There Ongoing
Fees and
Expenses?
Yes. The table below describes the fees and expenses that
you may pay each year, depending on the Allocation Options
you choose.
There is an implicit ongoing fee on the Risk Control
Accounts to the extent that the Cap limits your
participation in Index gains, which is not reflected in the
tables below. This means your returns may be lower than
the Index returns; however, in exchange for accepting a Cap
on Index gains, you receive some protection from Index
losses through the Floor.
Please refer to your Data Page for information about the
specific fees you will pay each year based on the options you
have elected.

Because your Contract is customizable, the choices you
make affect how much you will pay. To help you understand
the cost of owning your Contract, the following table shows
the lowest and highest cost you could pay each year, based
on current charges. This estimate assumes that you do
not take withdrawals from the Contract, which could add
Surrender Charges and a negative Market Value
Adjustment that substantially increase costs. Additionally,
for the lowest annual cost, it is assumed that all Contract
Value is allocated to the Declared Rate Account. For the
highest annual cost, it is assumed that all Contract Value is
allocated to the Risk Control Accounts.

RISKS
Location in
Prospectus
Is There a Risk of
Loss from Poor
Performance?
Yes. You can lose money by investing in the Contract,
including loss of principal and previously credited interest.
There is a risk of loss of principal and previously credited
interest with the Growth Account of up to 10% (with a Floor of
-10%) each Contract Year due to negative Index
performance.
During the life of your Contract, an Allocation Option with a
Floor of 0% will always be available, and we will continue to
make a Secure Account and Growth Account option available
for each Risk Control Account that is available to you.
Otherwise, we may add, change, or discontinue
Allocation Options and Indices from time to time. The
remaining Allocation Options may have terms that are
unacceptable to you and may not provide any protection
from Index losses, which could result in the loss of the
entire amount of your Contract Value.
Principal Risks of
Investing in the
Contract
Is this a Short-Term
Investment?
No. The Contract is not a short-term investment and is not
appropriate if you need ready access to cash. The benefits of
tax deferral mean that the Contract is more beneficial if you
have a long time horizon.
Excess Withdrawals and surrenders may be subject to a
Surrender Charge, a Market Value Adjustment (which may be
positive or negative) and federal and state income taxes, and,
if taken before age 59½, a 10% additional tax. Excess
Withdrawals will also reduce the Death Benefit, GLWB
Benefit Base, and GLWB Payment, perhaps by significantly
more than the amount of the withdrawal, and could terminate
the Contract.
During the Accumulation Period, we will automatically
rebalance your Contract Value among the Risk Control
Accounts and/or Declared Rate Account on each Contract
Anniversary based on your most recent allocation instructions
that we have on file.

What Are the Risks
Associated with the
Allocation
Options?
An investment in the Contract is subject to the risk of poor
investment performance and can vary depending on the
performance of the Allocation Options available under the
Contract. Each Allocation Option, including the Risk Control
Accounts and the Declared Rate Account, has its own unique
risks. You should review the Allocation Options carefully
before making an investment decision.
With respect to the Risk Control Accounts, the Cap will limit
positive Index returns. For example, if the Index performance
for a Contract Year is 12%, and the Cap is 4%, we will credit
4% in interest at the end of that Contract Year. You may earn
less than the Index performance as a result. The Floor will
limit negative Index performance and thereby provide limited
protection in the case of a market decline. For example, if the
Index performance is -25% and the Floor for the Growth
Account is -10%, we will credit -10% at the end of the
Contract Year.
Except for the Barclays Risk Balanced, each Index
associated with the Risk Control Accounts is a "price return
index," which means the Index performance does not include
dividends paid on the securities comprising the Index. This
will reduce Index performance and will cause the Index to
underperform a direct investment in the underlying securities.
The Barclays Risk Balanced Index reinvests dividends but
deducts certain fees. These deductions will reduce Index
performance, and the Index will underperform similar
portfolios from which these fees and costs are not deducted.

What Are the Risks
Related to the
Insurance
Company?
An investment in the Contract is subject to the risks related to
the Company. Any obligations (including under the Declared
Rate Account and the Risk Control Accounts), guarantees
(such as the Death Benefit), or benefits are subject to the
Company's claims-paying ability. More information about the

Are There
Restrictions on the
Allocation
Options?
Yes, as described below there are restrictions on certain
features of allocations, transfers, withdrawals, and investment
option features.
The availability of Allocation Options, Contract benefits, and
other Contract features described in this Prospectus may
vary by state and depending on the broker-dealer through
which the Contract is sold.

Changes to Investment Options and Features. For each
Risk Control Account, we set a Cap for the first Contract Year,
which is made available at least two weeks in advance of the
Contract Issue Date. We may set a new Cap prior to each
Contract Anniversary for the subsequent Contract Year and
will send you written notice at least two weeks prior to the
Contract Anniversary. The Caps will always be a minimum of
1%.
During the life of your Contract, a Risk Control Account with a
Floor of 0% will always be available, and we will continue to
make a Secure Account and Growth Account option available
for each Risk Control Account that is available to you.
Otherwise, we may add, change, or discontinue
Allocation Options and Indices from time to time. The
remaining Allocation Options may have terms that are
unacceptable to you and may not provide any protection
from Index losses, which could result in the loss of the
entire amount of your Contract Value.
If there is a delay between the date we remove an Index for a
Risk Control Account and the date we add a substitute Index,
your Risk Control Account Value will be based on the value of
the Index on the date the Index ceased to be available, which
means market changes during the delay will not be used to
calculate the index interest.
Risk Control
Account Option
Are There any
Restrictions on
Contract Benefits?
Yes. Systematic Withdrawals may be taken on a monthly,
quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis. The withdrawals
must be at least $100 each. There are additional limitations
on the amounts that you may request and the timing for
requesting and terminating Systematic Withdrawals. A Market
Value Adjustment and Surrender Charge may apply.

How Are
Investment
Professionals
Compensated?
Some investment professionals (also referred to as "financial
professionals" in this prospectus) may receive compensation
for selling the Contract to you in the form of commissions or
other compensation. These other forms of compensation may
include cash bonuses, insurance benefits and financing
arrangements. Non-cash benefits may include conferences,
seminars and trips (including travel, lodging and meals in
connection therewith), entertainment, merchandise and other
similar items. The Company may also pay asset-based
commissions (sometimes called trail commissions) in addition
to Purchase Payment-based commissions. Investment
professionals may also receive other payments from us for
services that do not directly involve the sale of the Contracts,
including personnel recruitment and training, production of
promotional literature and similar services.
As a result of these compensation arrangements, investment
professionals may have a financial incentive to offer or
recommend the Contract over another investment. You
should ask your investment professional for additional
information about the compensation he or she receives in
connection with your purchase of the Contract.
Other Information
- Distribution of
the Contract
Should I Exchange
My Contract?
You should only exchange your contract if you determine,
after comparing the features, fees, and risks of both
contracts, and any fees or penalties to terminate your existing
contract, that it is better for you to purchase the new contract
rather than continue to own your existing contract. Some
investment professionals may have a financial incentive to
offer you a new contract in place of the one you already own.

Risk Control Account Options
The following is a list of the Risk Control Account options currently available under the Contract. We may
change the features of the Risk Control Accounts listed below (including the Index and the Caps), offer
new Risk Control Accounts, and terminate existing Risk Control Accounts. We will provide you with written
notice before making any changes other than changes to the Caps. Information about current Caps is
available at https://www.trustage.com/zone-income-annuity-rates.
Note: During the Accumulation Period, if you surrender your Contract or take a partial withdrawal
on any day other than each sixth Contract Anniversary, we will apply a Market Value Adjustment
(which may be positive or negative). This may result in a significant reduction in your Contract
Value that could exceed any protection from Index loss that would be in place if you held the
option until each sixth Contract Anniversary.

(1)Except for the Barclays Risk Balanced, the performance of each Index associated with the Risk
Control Accounts does not include dividends paid on the securities comprising the Index, and
therefore, the performance of the Index does not reflect the full performance of those underlying
securities. This will reduce Index performance and will cause the Index to underperform a direct
investment in the underlying securities. The Barclays Risk Balanced Index reinvests dividends but
deducts a fee of 0.5% for the equity exposure, and 0.2% per year for the treasury exposure, and a
cost equal to SOFR plus 0.1145% for the equity component. Therefore, the aggregate fee will depend
on the Index's relative allocations to the equity and treasury components from time to time, which are
determined by the volatility control mechanism. SOFR refers to the Secured Overnight Financing
Rate, which was 3.87% as of December 31, 2025. The New York Fed publishes the SOFR on its
website each Business Day. These deductions will reduce Index performance, and the Index will
underperform similar portfolios from which these fees and costs are not deducted.
(2)We credit interest to each Risk Control Account at the end of each Contract Year during the six-year
period by comparing the change in the Index from each Contract Anniversary (the first day of the
Contract Year) to the last day of the current Contract Year. However, Excess Withdrawals and
surrenders on any day other than every sixth Contract Anniversary will be subject to the Market Value
Adjustment.
The Index Return is determined on each Contract Anniversary and is measured over the Contract Year.
Because Index interest is calculated on a single point in time you may experience negative or flat
performance even though the Index experienced gains through some, or most, of the Contract Year.
The Floors for the Secure Account and Growth Account will not change during the life of your Contract.
We set the Cap each year for the next Contract Year. In return for accepting some risk of loss to your Risk
A-3
Control Account Value allocated to the Growth Account, the Cap for the Growth Account is higher than the
Cap for the Secure Account. The Cap will always be at least 1%.
During the life of your Contract, an Allocation Option with a Floor of 0% will always be available, and we
will continue to make a Secure Account and Growth Account option available for each Risk Control
Account that is available to you. Otherwise, we may add, change, or discontinue Allocation Options
and Indices from time to time. The remaining Allocation Options may have terms that are
unacceptable to you and may not provide any protection from Index losses, which could result in
the loss of the entire amount of your Contract Value.
Declared Rate Account
The following is a list of Declared Rate Account Options currently available under the Contract. We may
change the features of the Declared Rate Account Options listed below, offer new Declared Rate Account
Options, and terminate existing Declared Rate Account Options. We will provide you with written notice
before doing so.
Note: During the Accumulation Period, if you surrender your Contract or take a partial withdrawal
on any day other than each sixth Contract Anniversary, we will apply a Market Value Adjustment
(which may be positive or negative). This may result in a significant reduction in your Contract
Value.
