IMPORTANT INFORMATION YOU SHOULD CONSIDER ABOUT THE CONTRACT

 

FEES AND EXPENSES
Charges for Early Withdrawals

If the Investor withdraws money from the Contract within ten (10) completed Purchase Payment Periods, the Investor can be assessed an early withdrawal charge equal to a maximum of 5% of the amount withdrawn. The specified maximum percentage referenced in the preceding sentence applies to withdrawals from Contracts with installment Purchase Payments and the withdrawal charge schedule that applies to that account, but it will never exceed 8.50% of total Purchase Payments.

 

Please also note that withdrawals from the Guaranteed Accumulation Account are subject to a Market Value Adjustment, which can be either positive or negative (see Appendix B to the full Contract Prospectus).

 

For example, if you make an early withdrawal from a Contract with installment Purchase Payments, you could pay a surrender charge of up to $5,000 on a $100,000 investment.

 

See “FEE TABLE – Transaction Expenses” and “CHARGES AND FEES – Transaction Fees – Early Withdrawal Charge” in the full Contract Prospectus.

Transaction Charges

In addition to the early withdrawal charge, the Investor may also be charged for fund redemption fees:

•    Certain Funds may impose redemption fees as a result of withdrawals, transfers or other Fund transactions you may initiate; and

•    Charges for advisory services due to an independent advisory services agreement between you and an investment adviser may be deducted from Contract value. The advisory fee is an independent advisory services agreement between the participant and an investment adviser; it is not considered a loan.

 

See “CHARGES AND FEES – Transaction Fees – Fund Redemption Fees” in the full Contract P.

Ongoing Fees and Expenses (annual charges) The table below describes the fees and expenses that you may pay each year, depending on the options you choose. Please refer to your Contract specifications page for information about the specific fees you will pay each year based on the options you have elected. The Base Contract Expenses include an administrative expense change equal to 0.25% annually of your Account Value invested in the Subaccounts. The administrative expense charge and the $20 annual maintenance fee may be waived, reduced or eliminated in certain circumstances. These ongoing fees and expenses do not reflect any advisory fees due under an independent advisory services agreement with a participant, and if such charges were reflected, these ongoing fees and expenses would be higher.

Base Contract Expenses 1.50%1,2 1.50%1, 2

Fund Fees and Expenses

(Portfolio Company fees and expenses)

0.27%3 1.50%3

 

 
1 As a percentage of average Account Value.
2 The Base Contract Expenses include (1) the mortality and expense risk charge (1.25%), which compensates us for the mortality and expense risks we assume under the Contract, including those risks associated with our funding of the death benefit; and (2) a $20 annual maintenance fee converted to an annual percentage equal to 0.0203505%. The minimum amount reflects these waivers, reductions or eliminations, while the maximum amount does not. The minimum and maximum amounts include the maximum mortality and expense risk charge of 1.25%, although this charge may be reduced if a plan meets certain criteria and we agree to the reduction with the Contract Holder in writing. See “CHARGES AND FEES - Periodic Fees and Charges” in the full Contract Prospectus.
3 These expenses, which include management fees, distribution (12b-1) and/or service fees and other expenses, do not take into account any fee waiver or expense reimbursement arrangements that may apply. These expenses are for the year ended December 31, 2023, and will vary from year to year.

RISKS
Risk of Loss

An Investor can lose money by investing in the Contract.

 

See “PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE CONTRACT” in the full Contract Prospectus.

Not a Short-Term Investment

This Contract is not designed for short-term investing and is not appropriate for an Investor who needs ready access to cash. The Contract is typically most useful as part of a personal retirement plan. Early withdrawals may be restricted by the Tax Code or your plan and may expose you to early withdrawal charges or tax penalties. You should not participate in this Contract if you are looking for a short-term investment or expect to make withdrawals before you are age 59½. You might be subject to federal and state income taxes and a 10% penalty.

 

See “PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE CONTRACT” in the full Contract Prospectus.

Risks Associated with Investment Options

 

An investment in the Contract is subject to the risk of poor investment performance and can vary depending on the performance of the investment options available under the Contract. Each investment option (including the Guaranteed Accumulation Account and the other Fixed Interest Options) will have its own unique risks, and you should review these investment options before making an investment decision. If all or a portion of your Account Value in the Guaranteed Accumulation Account is withdrawn, you could experience a loss as to the amount invested in that account.

 

See “THE INVESTMENT OPTIONS – The Variable Investment Options” in the full Contract Prospectus and “APPENDIX: FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER THE CONTRACT” and APPENDIX A, APPENDIX B, APPENDIX C, APPENDIX D and APPENDIX E to this summary prospectus.

RISKS

(continued from previous page)

Insurance Company Risks

More information about VRIAC, including its financial strength and claims paying ability, is available upon request, by contacting Customer Service at 1-800-584-6001.

 

See “THE CONTRACT – The General Account” in the full Contract Prospectus.

•    Some Subaccounts and Fixed Interest Options may not be available through certain Contracts, your plan or in some states. Your Plan Sponsor may also have selected a subset of Variable Investment and/or Fixed Interest Options to be available under your plan.

•    Not all Fixed Interest Options may be available for current or future investment;

•    There are certain restrictions on transfers from the Fixed Interest Options;

•    The Company reserves the right to combine two or more Subaccounts, close Subaccounts or substitute a new Fund for a Fund in which a Subaccount currently invests; and

•    The Contract is not designed to serve as a vehicle for frequent transfers. We actively monitor Fund transfer and reallocation activity to identify violations of our Excessive Trading Policy.

•    There is no additional tax benefit to the Investor if the Contract is purchased through a tax-qualified plan or individual retirement account (“IRA”); and

•    Withdrawals will be subject to ordinary income tax and may be subject to tax penalties.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Investment Professional Compensation

•    We pay compensation to broker/dealers whose registered representatives sell the Contract.

•    Compensation may be paid in the form of commissions or other compensation, depending upon the agreement between the broker/dealers and the registered representative.

•    Because of this sales-based compensation, an investment professional may have a financial incentive to offer or recommend the Contract over another investment.

 

See “OTHER TOPICS – Contract Distribution” in the full Contract Prospectus.

Exchanges

Some investment professionals may have a financial incentive to offer you a new contract in place of the one you own. You should exchange your Contract only if you determine, after comparing the features, fees and risks of both contracts, that it is preferable for you to purchase the new contract rather than continue to own the existing Contract.

 

See “PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE CONTRACT” in the full Contract Prospectus.

 

OVERVIEW OF THE CONTRACT

 

This summary provides a brief overview of the more significant aspects of the Contract. Further detail is provided in this summary prospectus, the Contract and the summary or full prospectuses for the Funds being considered. We urge you to read the entire summary prospectus as it describes all material features and benefits of the Contract and your rights and limitations thereunder. It also sets forth information you should know before making the decision to participate in the Contract through your retirement plan.

 

Purpose

 

The Contract described in this summary prospectus is an Installment Purchase Payment group deferred fixed and variable annuity contract (the “Installment Purchase Payment Account class of Contract”). It is intended to be used as a funding vehicle for deferred compensation plans sponsored by an employer for its employees and/or independent contractors (“plan” or “plans”) and to qualify for beneficial tax treatment and/or to provide current income reduction under certain sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Tax Code”). The plans may be sponsored by non-governmental tax-exempt organizations for deferrals that are subject to Tax Code Section 457 (“457 Plans”), by tax-exempt organizations for deferrals not subject to Tax Code section 457 (“Non Section 457 Plans”) or by taxable organizations (“Non Section 457 Plans”).

 

The Contract is designed for Investors who intend to accumulate funds for retirement purposes, and thus is best suited for those with a long investment horizon. The Contract should not be viewed as a highly liquid investment. In that regard, early withdrawals may be restricted by the Tax Code or your plan and may expose you to early withdrawal charges or tax penalties. The value of deferred taxation on earnings grows with the amount of time your money is left in the Contract. For these reasons, you should not participate in this Contract if you are looking for a short-term investment. When considering whether to purchase or participate in the Contract, you should consult with your financial representative about your financial goals, investment time horizon and risk tolerance.

Phases of Contract

 

The Contract has two phases: An Accumulation Phase and an Income Phase.

 

Accumulation Phase: During the Accumulation Phase, you direct us to invest your Purchase Payments or Account Value among the follow investment options:

Variable Investment Options; and/or
Fixed Interest Options.

 

Income Phase: During the Income Phase, you start receiving annuity, or Income Phase, payments from your Contract. The Contract offers several Income Phase payment options. However, you will be unable to make withdrawals, and any death benefits and living benefits will terminate. In general, you may:

Receive Income Phase payments over a lifetime or for a specified period;
Receive Income Phase payments monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually;
Select an Income Phase option that provides a death benefit to Beneficiaries; or
Select fixed Income Phase payments or payments that vary based on the performance of the Variable Investment Options you select.

 

For more information about the Income Phase, see “THE INCOME PHASE” section in the full Contract Prospectus.

 

The Variable Investment Options

 

The Variable Investment Options are Subaccounts within the Separate Account. Each Subaccount invests its assets directly in shares of a corresponding underlying Fund, and each Fund has its own distinct investment objectives, fees and expenses and investment advisers. Earnings on amounts invested in a Subaccount will vary depending upon the performance and fees of the corresponding underlying Fund. You do not invest directly in or hold shares of the Funds. Additional information about each underlying fund is set forth in an appendix to this summary prospectus. See “APPENDIX: FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER THE CONTRACT.”

 

There is no guarantee that your Account Value will increase. Depending upon the investment experience of each Fund in which a Subaccount invests, your Account Value may increase or decrease daily. You bear the investment risk for the Funds in which the Subaccounts invest; you will benefit from favorable investment experience but also bear the risk of poor investment performance.

 

The Fixed Interest Options

 

The following Fixed Interest Options may be available through the Contract:

The Guaranteed Accumulation Account;
The Fixed Account;
The Fixed Account 2;
The Fixed Plus Account; and
The Fixed Plus Account II A.

 

Not all Fixed Interest Options may be available for current or future investment. For descriptions of the Fixed Interest Options that may be available through the Contract, see AppendiX B, APPENDIX C, APPENDIX D and APPENDIX E in the full Contract Prospectus and the Guaranteed Accumulation Account prospectus. The Guaranteed Accumulation Account prospectus may be obtained free of charge by calling Customer Service at 1-800-584-6001.

Contract Features

 

Death Benefit. A Beneficiary may receive a death benefit in the event of your death during both the Accumulation and Income Phases (described above). The availability of a death benefit during the Income Phase depends upon the Income Phase annuity payment option selected. See “Benefits Available Under the Contract” below.

 

The death benefit will be based on your Account Value. For amounts held in the Guaranteed Accumulation Account, any positive aggregate market value adjustment (the sum of all market value adjustments calculated due to a withdrawal) will be included in your Account Value. If a negative market value adjustment applies, it would be deducted only if the death benefit is withdrawn more than six months after your death. We describe the market value adjustment in APPENDIX B in the full Contract Prospectus and in the Guaranteed Accumulation Account prospectus.

 

The death benefit is calculated as of the next time we value your account following the date on which Customer Service receives proof of death and a payment request in Good Order. In addition to this amount, some states require we pay interest on amounts invested in Fixed Interest Options, calculated from date of death at a rate specified by state law.

 

Taxation. Taxes will generally be due when you receive a distribution. Tax penalties may apply in some circumstances. See “FEDERAL Tax Considerations” in the full Contract Prospectus.

 

Withdrawals. During the Accumulation Phase, the Contract Holder, on your behalf and subject to the limits in the Contract, may withdraw all or a part of your Account Value. Amounts withdrawn may be subject to an early withdrawal charge, other deductions, tax withholding and taxation.

 

Charges for Advisory Services. A participant may enter into an agreement with an independent investment adviser that will provide agreed-upon advisory services and may arrange to have the advisory fees deducted from the Variable Investment Options, in which case such deductions will reduce the death benefit payable under the participant’s Contract, they may be treated as withdrawals, and they may be subject to federal and state income taxes and a 10% penalty tax. See “CHARGES AND FEES – Charges for Advisory Services.”

Benefits Available Under the Contract

 

Standard Death Benefit

 

Name of Benefit Purpose Maximum Fee Brief Description of Restrictions/Limitations

For amounts held in the Guaranteed Accumulation Account, if a negative market value adjustment applies, it would be deducted only if the death benefit is withdrawn more than six months after your death.

 

Any advisory fee deducted reduces Account Value and this reduces the amount of this death benefit

 

Optional Benefit:

 

Name of Benefit Purpose Maximum Fee Brief Description of Restrictions/Limitations
Systematic Distribution Options Allows you to receive regular payments from your account without moving into the Income Phase. No additional fee for this optional benefit. VRIAC may discontinue the availability of one or all of the systematic distribution options at any time and/or change the terms of future elections.

 

BUYING THE CONTRACT

 

Purchasing the Contract

 

To purchase the Contract:

The Contract Holder submits the required forms and application to the Company; and
We approve the forms and issue a Contract to the Contract Holder.

 

Participating in the Contract

 

To participate in the Contract:

Complete an enrollment form and submit it to us; and

ISP.75996 -24(Installment Contracts) 11 
Back to Table of Contents 

Method of Purchase Payment

 

The following Purchase Payment method is available:

Continuous payments over time into an Installment Purchase Payment Account. Payments into an Installment Purchase Payment Account must be at least $100 per month ($1,200 annually). No payment may be less than $25.

 

Allocation of Purchase Payments

 

The Contract Holder or you, if the Contract Holder permits, directs us to allocate initial Purchase Payments to the investment options available under the plan. Generally, you will specify this information on your enrollment materials. After your enrollment, changes to allocations for future Purchase Payments or transfers of existing balances among investment options may be requested by telephone, electronically at www.voyaretirementplans.com or through such other means as may be available under our administrative procedures in effect from time to time. Allocations must be in whole percentages, and there may be limitations on the number of investment options that can be selected. See “Investment Options” in the full Contract Prospectus.

 

Transfer Credits

 

Contributions to a Contract may include plan assets transferred from a financial provider who has imposed a cancellation penalty on that transfer. To offset that penalty, the Company will, subject to certain conditions and state approvals, apply a transfer credit on transferred assets. This credit is provided on a nondiscriminatory basis if your Contract is eligible.

 

The transfer credit will be applied no later than the first business day following the date the contribution is received by us in Good Order. Transferred assets, less any premium tax, will be allocated to a participant’s individual account in amounts authorized by the Contract Holder. If no instructions are received from the Contract Holder, the transferred assets will be allocated to the Plan’s forfeiture account.

 

The transfer credit is equal to a specified percentage of the transferred assets, or other specified amount that is transferred to the Company under a Contract, that remains in the participant’s individual account for the period of time specified by the Company. Any applicable transfer credit will be deducted from:

A full withdrawal initiated by the Contract Holder; or
A full or partial withdrawal initiated by the participant, except for those eligible distributions from qualified plans that happen upon the occurrence of certain events. See FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS – Taxation of Qualified Contracts – Distributions – Eligibility” in the full Contract Prospectus.
ISP.75996 -24(Installment Contracts) 12 
Back to Table of Contents 

Transfer credits will not be applied to assets transferred into the Contract from existing contracts. Only net contributions not previously held by the Contract are eligible for a transfer credit.

 

If a transfer credit is due under your Contract, you will be provided with additional information.

 

Election of a transfer credit may result in a higher mortality and expense risk charge and impact the credited interest rate under the Fixed Plus Account and the Fixed Plus Account II A Fixed Interest Options. See “CHARGES AND Fees,” “APPENDIX D: FIXED PLUS ACCOUNT II and “APPENDIX E: FIXED ACCOUNT II A” in the full Contract Prospectus.

 

Tax Code Restrictions

 

The Tax Code places some limitations on contributions to your account. See “FEDERAL Tax Considerations” in the full Contract Prospectus.

 

When Initial and Subsequent Purchase Payments Are Credited

 

Initial Purchase Payment. We must accept or reject an application or your enrollment materials within two business days of receipt. If the forms are incomplete, we may hold any forms and accompanying Purchase Payments for five business days, unless you consent to our holding them longer. Under limited circumstances, we may also agree, for a particular plan, to hold Purchase Payments for longer periods with the permission of the Contract Holder. If we agree to do this, the Purchase Payments remain in a non-interest bearing bank account until processed (or for a maximum of 105 days). If we reject the application or enrollment forms, we will return the forms and any Purchase Payments.

 

Subsequent Purchase Payments. If all or a portion of initial Purchase Payments are directed to the Subaccounts, they will purchase Subaccount Accumulation Units at the Accumulation Unit Value next computed after our acceptance of the applicable application or enrollment forms, as described in “CONTRACT PURCHASE AND PARTICIPATION” in the full Contract Prospectus. Subsequent Purchase Payments or transfers directed to the Subaccounts that we receive in Good Order by the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (normally at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) will purchase Subaccount Accumulation Units at the Accumulation Unit Value computed as of the close of the NYSE on that day. The value of Subaccounts may vary day to day. Subsequent Purchase Payments and transfers received in Good Order after the close of the NYSE will purchase Accumulation Units at the Accumulation Unit Value computed as of the close of the NYSE on the next business day.

MAKING WITHDRAWALS: ACCESSING THE MONEY IN YOUR CONTRACT

 

Withdrawals

 

Subject to limitations on withdrawals from the Fixed Plus Account and the Fixed Plus Account II A (see “APPENDIX D: FIXED PLUS ACCOUNT” and “APPENDIX E: FIXED PLUS ACCOUNT II A” in the full Contract Prospectus), the Contract Holder or you, if permitted by the plan, may withdraw all or a portion of your Account Value (on your behalf) at any time during the Accumulation Phase.

 

Steps for Making a Withdrawal

 

The Contract Holder or you, if permitted by the plan, must:

Select the Withdrawal Amount:
Full Withdrawal: You will receive, reduced by any required tax, your Account Value allocated to the Subaccounts, the Guaranteed Accumulation Account (plus or minus any applicable market value adjustment) and the Fixed Account or Fixed Account 2, minus any applicable early withdrawal charge, annual maintenance fee and redemption fees, plus the amount available for withdrawal from the Fixed Plus Account and/or the Fixed Plus Account II A; or
Partial Withdrawal (Percentage or Specified Dollar Amount): You will receive, reduced by any required tax, the amount you specify, subject to the value available in your account. However, the amount actually withdrawn from your account will be adjusted by any applicable redemption fees and by any applicable early withdrawal charge for amounts withdrawn from the Subaccounts, the Guaranteed Accumulation Account or the Fixed Account or Fixed Account 2 and any positive or negative market value adjustments for amounts withdrawn from the Guaranteed Accumulation Account. The amounts available from the Fixed Plus Account and Fixed Plus Account II A may be limited.
Select Investment Options. If not specified, we will withdraw dollars in the same proportion as the values you hold in the various investment options from each investment option in which you have an Account Value; and
Properly complete a disbursement form and submit it to Customer Service.

 

For amounts withdrawn from Account Value allocated to the Subaccounts, we will redeem the number of Accumulation Units needed to fund the withdrawal and reduce your Account Value accordingly. For amounts withdrawn withdraw from a Fixed Interest Option, we will reduce the value of the Fixed Interest Option by the dollar amount of that portion of the withdrawal (and with respect to the Guaranteed Accumulation Account, will reflect any positive or negative market value adjustment) and will reduce your Account Value accordingly. A reduction to the Account Value due to a withdrawal results in a lesser amount available to be annuitized and a lesser death benefit. For a description of limitations on withdrawals from the Fixed Plus Account and Fixed Plus Account II A, please see APPENDIX D and APPENDIX E in the full Contract Prospectus.

 

Calculation of Your Withdrawal

 

We determine your Account Value every normal business day after the close of the NYSE. We pay withdrawal amounts based on your Account Value either:

As of the next valuation after Customer Service receives a request for withdrawal in Good Order; or
On such later date as specified on the disbursement form.

 

Delivery of Payment

 

Payments for withdrawal requests will be made in accordance with SEC requirements. Normally, we will send your payment no later than seven calendar days following our receipt of your disbursement form in Good Order.

ISP.75996 -24(Installment Contracts) 14 
Back to Table of Contents 

Systematic Distribution Options

 

If available under your plan, a systematic distribution option allows you to receive regular payments from your account without moving into the Income Phase. By remaining in the Accumulation Phase, you retain certain rights and investment flexibility not available during the Income Phase. Because the account remains in the Accumulation Phase, all Accumulation Phase charges continue to apply.

 

Systematic Distribution Options Currently Available

 

These options may be exercised at any time during the Accumulation Phase of the Contract. To exercise one of these options, the Account Value must meet any minimum dollar amount and age criteria applicable to that option. To determine what systematic distribution options are available, please write or call Customer Service.

 

Systematic distribution options currently available under the Contract include the following:

Systematic Withdrawal Option (“SWO”) - SWO is a series of partial withdrawals from your account based on a payment method you select. It is designed for those who want a periodic income while retaining Accumulation Phase investment flexibility for amounts accumulated under the account; and

 

Estate Conservation Option (“ECO”) - ECO offers the same investment flexibility as SWO, but is designed for those who want to receive only the minimum distribution that the Tax Code requires each year. Under ECO we calculate the minimum distribution amount required by law (generally at age 73 or such other age and time as prescribed by Tax Code section 401(a)(9)) and pay you that amount once a year. ECO is available under 457 Plans only.

 

Other Systematic Distribution Options

 

Other systematic distribution options may be available from time to time. Additional information relating to any of the systematic distribution options may be obtained from your local representative or by contacting Customer Service.

 

Availability of Systematic Distribution Options

 

The Company may discontinue the availability of one or all of the systematic distribution options at any time and/or change the terms of future elections.

 

Terminating a Systematic Distribution Option

 

Once a systematic distribution option is elected, the Contract Holder may revoke it at any time by submitting a written request to Customer Service. Any revocation will apply only to the amount not yet paid. Once an option is revoked for an account, it may not be elected again until the next calendar year, nor may any other systematic distribution option be elected.

 

Tax Consequences

 

Withdrawals received through these options and revocations of elections may have tax consequences. See “FEDERAL Tax Considerations” in the full Contract Prospectus.

See “APPENDIX: FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER THE CONTRACT.”

  Minimum Maximum
Range of total annual Fund operating expenses before any waivers or expense reimbursements 0.27% 1.50
Range of total annual Fund operating expenses after any waivers or expense reimbursements8 0.27% 1.44

 

 
4 This is a deferred sales charge. See “CHARGES AND FEES” in the full Contract Prospectus for the Installment Purchase Payment Account’s early withdrawal charge schedule. In certain cases, this charge may not apply to a portion or all of your withdrawal. The early withdrawal charge reduces over time. This charge may be waived, reduced or eliminated in certain circumstances. See “CHARGES AND Fees.
5 We reserve the right to deduct a charge for premium taxes from your Account Value or from payments to the Account at any time, but not before there is a tax liability under state law. See “CHARGES AND FeesPremium and Other Taxes” in the full Contract Prospectus.
6 These fees may be waived, reduced or eliminated in certain circumstances. See “CHARGES AND Fees - Periodic Fees and Charges” in the full Contract Prospectus.
7 The mortality and expense risk charge, included in the base contract expenses, compensates us for the mortality and expense risks we assume under the Contract, including those risks associated with our funding of the death benefit. The base contract expenses also reflect an administration expense charge equal to 0.25% annually of your Account Value invested in the Subaccounts. These fees may be reduced or eliminated in certain circumstances. See “CHARGES AND FEES - Periodic Fees and Charges” in the full Contract Prospectus.
8 Any expense waivers or reimbursements will remain in effect until at least April 30, 2022, and can only be terminated early with approval by the Fund company’s board of directors.

Examples

 

These examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Contract with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts. These costs include transaction expenses (assuming no loans), annual Contract expenses and annual Fund expenses.

 

The following examples assume that you invest $100,000 in the Contract for the time periods indicated. The Examples also assume that your investment has a 5% return each year and assume the most expensive combination of annual Fund expenses. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

 

Example A:  If you withdraw your entire Account Value at the end of the applicable time period: 1 Year 3 Years 5 Years 10 Years
$8,115 $14,534 $21,214 $33,025
Example B:  If you do not withdraw your entire Account Value or if you select an Income Phase payment option at the end of the applicable time period:9 1 Year 3 Years 5 Years 10 Years
$3,014 $9,225 $15,689 $33,025

 

 
9 This example will not apply if during the Income Phase a nonlifetime payment option is elected with variable payments and a lump-sum payment is requested within a certain number of years as specified in the contract. In that case, the lump-sum payment is treated as a withdrawal during the Accumulation Phase and may be subject to an early withdrawal charge. (Refer to Example A.)
