UPDTATED INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR CONTRACT
The information in this Updating Summary Prospectus is a summary of certain Contract features that have changed since your Prospectus dated May 1, 2024.  This may not reflect all of the changes that have occurred since you entered into your Contract.

Minimum
 
Maximum
Range of Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses* (total of all expenses that are deducted from Portfolio assets, including management fees, distribution or service fees (12b-1 fees), and other expenses-before any contractual waiver of fees and expenses)

IMPORTANT INFORMATION YOU SHOULD CONSIDER ABOUT THE CONTRACT
FEES AND EXPENSES
ARE THERE CHARGES FOR EARLY
WITHDRAWALS?
Yes. If you surrender or partially surrender (withdraw money from) your Contract, we may deduct a surrender charge when a premium is withdrawn or applied to certain annuity options during the first eight years following the payment of that premium. The surrender charge is calculated as a percentage of your premium payment being withdrawn or annuitized during the applicable Premium Year.  The amount of the surrender charge decreases over time, measured from the date the premium payment is credited to the Contract.
The maximum surrender charge is 8% of each premium payment withdrawn or Annuitized under a Non-Life Payment Option.
For example, if you purchased a Contract and were to partially surrender (withdraw) the initial premium of $100,000 during the first year since payment of the premium, you would be assessed a maximum charge of $8,000 on the amount surrendered.

Reference Prospectus Surrender Charge.
ARE THERE TRANSACTION CHARGES?
Yes. In addition to surrender charges, you may be charged for other transactions (such as when you complete more than six transfers during a Contract Year).

RISKS
IS THERE A RISK OF LOSS FROM POOR PERFORMANCE?
You can lose money by investing in this Contract, including loss of principal.

Reference Prospectus Principal Risks of Investing in the Contract.
IS THIS A SHORT-TERM INVESTMENT?
No. This Contract is not designed for short-term investing and is not appropriate for an investor who needs ready access to cash.

Surrender charges apply for up to eight Contract years and will reduce the value of your Contract if surrenders are made during that time.

Withdrawals may be subject to taxes and tax penalties. In addition, the tax deferral benefit provided by the Contract is more beneficial to investors with a long-time horizon.

Reference Prospectus Principal Risks of Investing in the Contract.
WHAT ARE THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INVESTMENT OPTIONS?
Investment in the Contract is subject to the risk of poor investment performance and can vary depending on the performance of each Subaccount.  The Subaccounts and the Fixed Account each have their own unique risks.  You should review all of the investment options before making an investment decision.

Reference Prospectus Principal Risks of Investing in the Contract.
WHAT ARE THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE INSURANCE COMPANY?
Any obligations, guarantees, and benefits of the Contract, including the Fixed Account investment option, are subject to the claims-paying ability of Kansas City Life.  If Kansas City Life experiences financial distress, it may not be able to meet its obligations to you.  More information about the financial condition of Kansas City Life, including its financial strength rating, is available upon request by contacting the Home Office.

Reference Prospectus Financial Condition of Kansas City Life.
RESTRICTIONS
ARE THERE RESTRICTIONS ON THE INVESTMENT OPTIONS?
Yes. The amount allocated to the Fixed Account may not exceed 15% of the total Contract Value. If a transfer to the Fixed Account causes the value to exceed 15% of total Contract Value, we may transfer the excess to the Federated Hermes Government Money Fund II Subaccount. The first six transfers during each Contract Year are free.  We will assess a transfer processing fee of $25 for each additional transfer during such Contract Year. If a pattern of excessive transfers occurs, we may suspend the transfer privilege or will apply limitations or modifications to transfers to or from one or more of the Subaccounts.
We reserve the right to remove or substitute Portfolio Companies as investment options. Please review Appendix A for fund specific restrictions.
Reference The Fixed Account, Prospectus Transfer Processing Fee and The Funds.
ARE THERE RESTRICTIONS ON CONTRACT BENEFITS?
Yes.  The contract offers several benefits. Certain benefits, such as teh GMWB, are subject to additional charges. Optional benefits may not be available for all Issue Ages and cannot be added after issue.  The GMWB limits the Portfolio Companies in which you may invest under the Contract, and we may change the Portfolio Companies that are eligible for investment in the future.  If you take withdrawals from your Contract Value, the amounts payable under the GMWB and GMDB may be reduced by more than the amount of the withdrawal.  We may stop offering the GMWB at any time.  Certain 403(b) contracts may restrict distributions from the Contract.

TAXES
WHAT ARE THE CONTRACT’S TAX IMPLICATIONS?
 
Earnings on your Contract are taxed at ordinary income tax rates when you withdraw them, and you may have to pay a penalty if you take a withdrawal before age 59 ½.  The tax advantages provided by a variable annuity are already available with tax-qualified plans, including IRAs and Roth IRAs.  You should purchase the Contract within a tax-qualified plan only for reasons other than tax deferral.  We encourage you to consult your own tax adviser before making a purchase of the Contract.
Reference Prospectus Federal Tax Status.
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
HOW ARE INVESTMENT PROFESSIONALS COMPENSATED?
Commissions are paid to broker-dealers for the sale of Contracts.  In addition, we may pay an asset-based commission or other amounts in certain circumstances.  All or some of the payments received from Funds under distribution plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 may be passed on to selling firms.  This conflict of interest may influence your investment professional to recommend this contract over another investment.
Reference Prospectus Sale of the Contracts.
SHOULD I EXCHANGE MY CONTRACT?
Some broker-dealers may have a financial incentive to offer a new contract in place of your existing insurance.  You should replace (exchange) your existing Contract only when you determine that the contract is better for you after comparing the features, fees, and risks of both contracts and considering the fees and penalties to terminate the existing Contract.
