ANNUITY CONTRACT
Issued by Allianz Life Insurance Company
of North America (Allianz Life, we, us, our)
The annuity described in this prospectus
is an individual flexible purchase payment index-linked and variable deferred annuity contract (Contract). This prospectus describes the
Contract between you, the Owner, and Allianz Life.
The Contract allows you to allocate
your Purchase Payments and any earnings among the Contract’s available index-linked investment options (Index Options). Please
note, we reserve the right to decline any or all Purchase Payments at any time on a nondiscriminatory basis. The Contract also includes
the Variable Option, a subaccount of our Allianz Life Variable Account B that invests exclusively in shares of the AZL Government Money
Market Fund. Allianz Life Variable Account B is our registered separate account, and it is referred to in this prospectus as the “Separate
Account”. However, you cannot instruct us to allocate Purchase Payments or earnings to the Variable Option. For additional information
about each of the Contract’s Investment Options, see Appendix A – Investment Options Available Under the Contract.
The Contract is
a complex investment and involves risks. You may lose money, including your principal investment and previously credited earnings.
Index
Options. Each Index Option is tied (or linked) to the performance
of a specific market index or exchange-traded fund (Index) for a defined time period (Term). At the end of a Term, we will apply positive,
negative, or zero interest (Performance Credits) to your investment in an Index Option based, in part, on the performance of the Index.
Each available Index Option offers
a certain level of protection against Index losses used in the calculation of Performance Credits. Certain Index Options offer complete
protection from Index losses. Other Index Options have a Buffer or Floor feature that provides limited protection from Index losses.
●
We
currently offer Index Options with Buffers ranging from 10% to 30% or with a Floor of -10%. If
there is poor Index performance, you could lose up to 70% to 90% of your investment in an Index Option with a Buffer after taking into
account the Buffer protection and up to 10% of your investment in an Index Option with a Floor after taking into account the Floor protection.
Cumulative losses over the life of the Contract could be greater.
●
The
current limit on Index loss for an Index Option will not change for the life of that Index Option. However, we reserve the right to add
new Index Options, as well as close Index Options to new Purchase Payments and transfers. As such, the limits on Index loss offered under
the Contract may change from one Term to the next if we add an Index Option or discontinue accepting new allocations into an Index Option.
●
If
we offer a new Index Option with a Buffer or Floor in the future, the Buffer or Floor will be no lower than 5% or -25%, respectively.
●
At
least one Index Option with a Buffer no lower than 5% or Floor no lower than -25%, or an Index Option that provides complete protection
from Index losses, will always be available for renewal under the Contract.
Each available Index Option also
has an upside feature, either a Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or Participation Rate, used in the calculation of Performance Credits.
●
We
may limit the amount you can earn on an Index Option based on the Trigger Rate, Cap, or Participation Rate, as applicable.
●
The
lowest Trigger Rate, Cap, and Participation Rate that we may establish if we add a new Index Option to the Contract are 0.05%, 0.10%,
and 5.00%, respectively.
Variable
Option. The sole purpose of the Variable Option is to hold
Purchase Payments until they are transferred to the Index Options. The Variable Option’s performance is based on the AZL Government
Money Market Fund, the underlying fund in which the Variable Option invests.
This Contract is
not a short-term investment and is not appropriate if you need ready access to cash. Withdrawals could result in withdrawal charges, negative
Daily Adjustments, taxes, and tax penalties. The maximum potential loss from a negative Daily Adjustment is either -99% or -35% depending
on the Index Option.
All obligations and guarantees under
the Contract, including Performance Credits, are the obligations of Allianz Life and are subject to our claims-paying ability and financial
strength.
Please read this
prospectus before investing and keep it for future reference.
The prospectus describes all material rights and obligations of purchasers under the Contract. It contains important information about
the Contract and Allianz Life that you ought to know before investing including material state variations. Availability of Index
Options may vary by financial intermediary. You can obtain information on which Index Options are available to you by calling (800) 624-0197,

or from your
Financial Professional. This prospectus is not offered in any state, country, or jurisdiction in which we are not authorized to sell the
Contracts. You should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus. We have not authorized anyone to give you different information.
If you are a new investor in the
Contract, you may cancel your Contract within 10 days of receiving it without paying fees or penalties, although we will apply the Daily
Adjustment if the cancellation occurs after the Index Effective Date. In some states, this cancellation period may be longer. Upon
cancellation, you will receive either a full refund of the amount you paid with your application or your total Contract Value. If you
have an Individual Retirement Annuity Contract, we refund the greater of Purchase Payments less withdrawals, or total Contract Value.
You should review this prospectus, or consult with your Financial Professional, for additional information about the specific cancellation
terms that apply.
The
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has not approved or disapproved these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful
or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense. An investment in this Contract is not a deposit of a bank or financial
institution and is not federally insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other federal government agency.
An investment in this Contract involves investment risk including the possible loss of principal.
Before investing, be sure to ask
your Financial Professional about the Contract’s features, benefits, risks, fees and expenses, whether the Contract is appropriate
for you based upon your financial situation and objectives, and for a specific recommendation to purchase the Contract. This prospectus
is not intended to constitute a suitability recommendation or fiduciary advice.

Glossary
This prospectus is written in plain
English. However, there are some technical words or terms that are capitalized and are used as defined terms throughout the prospectus.
For your convenience, we included this glossary to define these terms.
Accumulation Phase
– the first phase of your Contract before you request Annuity Payments. The Accumulation Phase begins on the Issue Date.
Annuitant
– the individual upon whose life we base the Annuity Payments. Subject to our approval, the Owner designates the Annuitant, and
can add a joint Annuitant for the Annuity Phase. There are restrictions on who can become an Annuitant.
Annuity Date
– the date we begin making Annuity Payments to the Payee from the Contract. Your Annuity Date must occur on an Index Anniversary.
The earliest available Annuity Date is the second Index Anniversary, and the maximum Annuity Date is either age 90 or age 100
depending on the requirements of the Financial Professional from whom you purchased your Contract.
Annuity Options
– the annuity income options available to you under the Contract.
Annuity Payments
– payments made by us to the Payee pursuant to the chosen Annuity Option.
Annuity Phase
– the phase the Contract is in once Annuity Payments begin.
Beneficiary
– the person(s) or entity the Owner designates to receive any death benefit, unless otherwise required by the Contract or applicable
law.
Buffer
– for each Index Option with the Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy, this
is the negative Index Return that we absorb over the duration of a Term (which can be either one, three, or six years) before applying
a negative Performance Credit. We do not
apply the Buffer annually on a 3-year or 6-year Term Index Option. The Index Precision Strategy Buffer is 10%, and Index Performance Strategy
and Index Dual Precision Strategy Buffers are either 10%, 20%, or 30%. Buffers do not change. Restrictions on the availability of the
Buffers are discussed in Appendix A – Investment Options Available Under the Contract and in Appendix E – Material Contract
Variations by State and Issue Date.
Business Day
– each day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading. Allianz Life is open for business on each day that the New
York Stock Exchange is open. Our Business Day ends when regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange closes, which is usually at 4:00
p.m. Eastern Time.
Cap
– for any Index Option with the Index Performance Strategy, or Index Guard Strategy, this is the upper limit on positive Index
performance after application of any Participation Rate over the duration of a Term (which can be either one, three, or six years) and
the maximum potential Performance Credit for an Index Option. We do not
apply the Cap annually on a 3-year or 6-year Term Index Option. On each Term Start Date, we set a Cap for each Index Option with the Index
Performance Strategy, and Index Guard Strategy. The Caps applicable to your Contract are shown on the Index Options Statement.
Cash Value
– the amount available upon surrender (full withdrawal). It is the Contract Value (including any Daily Adjustment) less any final
rider fee, contract maintenance charge, and withdrawal charge.
Charge Base
– the Contract Value on the preceding Quarterly Contract Anniversary (or the initial Purchase Payment received on the Issue Date
if this is before the first Quarterly Contract Anniversary), increased by the dollar amount of subsequent Purchase Payments, and reduced
proportionately for subsequent withdrawals you take (including any withdrawal charge) and deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses.
All withdrawals you take reduce the Charge Base, even Penalty-Free Withdrawals. We use the Charge Base to determine the next rider fee
we deduct if you select the Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit.
Contract
– the individual flexible purchase payment index-linked and variable deferred annuity contract described by this prospectus. The
Contract may also be referred to as a registered index-linked annuity, or “RILA”.
Contract Anniversary
– a twelve-month anniversary of the Issue Date or any subsequent Contract Anniversary.
Contract Value
– the current value of the Purchase Payments you invest. On any Business Day, your Contract Value is the sum of your Index Option
Value(s) and Variable Account Value. Variable Account Value fluctuates each Business Day that money is held in the Variable Option. Index
Option Value is increased or decreased on each Term End Date to reflect
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Performance Credits,
which can be negative with the Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index
Performance Strategy. A negative Performance
Credit means that you can lose principal and previous earnings.
The Index Option Values also reflect the Daily Adjustment on every Business Day other than the Term Start Date or Term End Date. All withdrawals
you take reduce Contract Value dollar for dollar, even Penalty-Free Withdrawals. Contract Value is also reduced dollar for dollar for
deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses. However, Contract Value does not reflect future fees and expenses we would apply on
surrender. The Cash Value reflects all Contract fees and expenses we would apply on surrender (including any withdrawal charge), as well
as any applicable Daily Adjustment.
Contract Year
– any period of twelve months beginning on the Issue Date or a subsequent Contract Anniversary.
Crediting Method
– a method we use to calculate Performance Credits for the Index Options.
Daily Adjustment
– how we calculate Index Option Values on days other than the Term Start Date or Term End Date as discussed in section 7, Expenses
and Adjustments – Daily Adjustment; and Appendix C. The Daily Adjustment approximates the Index Option Value that will be available
on the Term End Date. It is the estimated present value of the future Performance Credit that we will apply on the Term End Date. The
Daily Adjustment for the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger cannot be negative.
Determining Life
(Lives) – the person(s) designated at Contract issue
and named in the Contract on whose life we base the guaranteed Traditional Death Benefit or Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit.
Early Reallocation
– a feature that allows you to move assets out of a locked Index Option on days other than an Index Anniversary or a Term End Date.
Financial Professional
– the person who advises you regarding the Contract.
Floor
– for any Index Option with the Index Guard Strategy, this is the maximum amount of negative Index Return you absorb as a negative
Performance Credit. The Floors are -10% and do not change.
Fund
– the AZL Government Money Market Fund, the underlying fund in which the Variable Option invests.
Good Order
– a request is in “Good Order” if it contains all of the information we require to process the request. If we require
information to be provided in writing, “Good Order” also includes providing information on the correct form, with any required
certifications, guarantees and/or signatures, and received at our Service Center after delivery to the correct mailing, email, or website
address, which are all listed at the back of this prospectus. If you have questions about the information we require, or whether you can
submit certain information by fax, email or over the web, please contact our Service Center. If you send information by email or upload
it to our website, we send you a confirmation number that includes the date and time we received your information.
Guaranteed Death
Benefit Value – the guaranteed value that is available
to your Beneficiary(ies) on the first death of any Determining Life during the Accumulation Phase. The Guaranteed Death Benefit Value
is either total Purchase Payments reduced proportionately for withdrawals you take (including any withdrawal charge) if you select the
Traditional Death Benefit, or the Maximum Anniversary Value if you select the Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit. All withdrawals
you take reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value, even Penalty-Free Withdrawals. However, we do not reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit
Value for deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses. These deductions will, however, reduce the Contract Value we use to calculate
the Maximum Anniversary Value.
Index (Indexes)
– one (or more) of the nationally recognized third-party broad based equity securities price return Indexes or exchange-traded
fund available to you under your Contract as described in Appendix B.
Index Anniversary
– a twelve-month anniversary of the Index Effective Date or any subsequent Index Anniversary.
Index Dual Precision
Strategy – one of the Crediting Methods described
in section 4, Index Options. This Crediting Method offers 1-year, 3-year, and 6-year Terms. The Index Dual Precision Strategy calculates
Performance Credits based on Index Returns subject to a Trigger Rate and a 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer. This Crediting Method provides a positive
Performance Credit for negative market movements when the loss is less than or equal to the applicable 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer. However,
you can still receive negative Performance Credits under this Crediting Method when the Index Return is negative and extends beyond the
Buffer, which means you can lose principal and previous earnings. Significant losses beyond the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer for the Index
Dual Precision Strategy can result in substantial loss of principal and
Index

Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
previous earnings.
Restrictions on the availability of the Index Dual Precision Strategy Index Options are discussed in Appendix A – Investment Options
Available Under the Contract and in Appendix E – Material Contract Variations by State and Issue Date.
Index Effective
Date – the first day we allocate assets to an Index
Option. The Index Effective Date is stated on the Index Options Statement and starts the first Index Year. When you purchase this Contract
you select the Index Effective Date as discussed in section 3, Purchasing the Contract – Allocation of Purchase Payments and Contract
Value Transfers.
Index Guard Strategy
– one of the Crediting Methods described in section 4, Index Options. The Index Guard Strategy calculates Performance Credits based
on Index Returns subject to a Cap and -10% Floor. You can receive negative Performance Credits under this Crediting Method, which means
you can lose principal and previous earnings.
Index Option(s)
– the index-linked investments available to you under the Contract. Each Index Option is the combination of an Index, a Crediting
Method, a Term length, and any applicable Buffer or Floor amount.
Index Option Base
– an amount we use to calculate Performance Credits and the Daily Adjustment. The Index Option Base is initially equal to the amounts
you allocate to an Index Option. We reduce the Index Option Base proportionately for withdrawals you take (including any withdrawal charge),
and deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses. We increase/decrease it by the dollar amount of additional Purchase Payments allocated
to the Index Option, transfers into or out of the Index Option, and any Performance Credits.
Index Option Value
– on any Business Day, it is equal to the portion of your Contract Value in a particular Index Option. We establish an Index Option
Value for each Index Option you select. Each Index Option Value includes any Performance Credits from previous Term End Dates and reflects
proportional reductions for previous partial withdrawals you take (including any withdrawal charge), and previous deductions we made for
Contract fees and expenses. On each Business Day, other than the Term Start Date or Term End Date, the Index Option Values also include
an increase/decrease from the Daily Adjustment.
Index Options Statement
– the account statement we mail to you on the Index Effective Date and each Index Anniversary thereafter. On the Index Effective
Date, the statement shows the initial Index Values, Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates for the Index Options you selected. On
each Index Anniversary, the statement shows the new Index Values, Performance Credits received, and renewal or Early Reallocation Trigger
Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates that are effective for the next Term for the Index Options you selected. The Index Options Statement
also shows any applicable Buffer or Floor for your selected Index Option(s). For any Index Option you selected that has not reached
its Term End Date, the statement shows the current Index Anniversary’s Index Option Value, which includes the Daily Adjustment.
Index Performance
Strategy – one of the Crediting Methods described
in section 4, Index Options. This Crediting Method offers 1-year, 3-year, and 6-year Terms. The Index Performance Strategy calculates
Performance Credits based on Index Returns subject to any applicable Participation Rate, Cap, and a 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer. You can receive
negative Performance Credits under this Crediting Method, which means you can lose principal and previous earnings. Restrictions on the
availability of the Index Performance Strategy Index Options are discussed in Appendix A – Investment Options Available Under the
Contract and in Appendix E – Material Contract Variations by State and Issue Date.
Index Precision
Strategy – one of the Crediting Methods described
in section 4, Index Options. The Index Precision Strategy calculates Performance Credits based on Index Values and Index Returns subject
to the Trigger Rate and 10% Buffer. You can receive negative Performance Credits under this Crediting Method, which means you can lose
principal and previous earnings.
Index Protection
Strategy with Trigger – one of the Crediting Methods
described in section 4, Index Options. The Index Protection Strategy with Trigger provides Performance Credits equal to the Trigger Rate
on the Term End Date if the current Index Value is equal to or greater than the Index Value on the Term Start Date. The Index Protection
Strategy with Trigger does not allow negative Performance Credits.
Index Return
– the percentage change in Index Value from the Term Start Date to the Term End Date, which we use to determine the Performance
Credits. The Index Return is the Index Value on the Term End Date, minus the Index Value on the Term Start Date, divided by the Index
Value on the Term Start Date. This method of calculation is also referred to as “point-to-point”.
Index Value
– an Index’s closing market price at the end of the Business Day on the Term Start Date and Term End Date as provided by
Bloomberg or another market source if Bloomberg is not available.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Index
Year – a twelve-month period beginning on the Index
Effective Date or a subsequent Index Anniversary.
Investment Options
– the Index Options and Variable Option available under the Contract.
Issue Date
– the date we issue the Contract. The Issue Date is stated in your Contract and starts your first Contract Year. Contract Anniversaries
and Contract Years are measured from the Issue Date.
Joint Owners
– the two persons designated at Contract issue and named in the Contract who may exercise all rights granted by the Contract. Joint
Owners must be spouses within the meaning of federal tax law.
Lock Date
– this is the Business Day we execute a Performance Lock and capture an Index Option Value (which includes
the Daily Adjustment) before a Term End Date.
Maximum Anniversary
Value – the highest Contract Value on any Index
Anniversary before age 91, increased by the dollar amount of subsequent Purchase Payments, and reduced proportionately for subsequent
withdrawals you take (including any withdrawal charge), used to determine the Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit as discussed in
section 11. All withdrawals you take reduce your Maximum Anniversary Value, even Penalty-Free Withdrawals. Deductions we make for Contract
fees and expenses other than the withdrawal charge do not reduce the Maximum Anniversary Value. These deductions will, however, reduce
the Contract Value we use to calculate the Maximum Anniversary Value.
Maximum Anniversary
Value Death Benefit – an optional benefit described
in section 11 that has an additional rider fee and is intended to potentially provide a death benefit greater than the Traditional Death
Benefit. The Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit can only be added to a Contract at issue.
Non-Qualified Contract
– a Contract that is not a Qualified Contract.
Owner
– “you,” “your” and “yours.” The person(s) or entity designated at Contract issue and
named in the Contract who may exercise all rights granted by the Contract.
Participation Rate
– a percentage that is multiplied by any positive Index Return over the course of a Term in calculating the Performance Credit
on the Term End Date. Participation Rates are used with the Index Performance Strategy and there is one Participation Rate per Index Option.
The Participation Rate is only available on the Index Performance Strategy 3-year and 6-year Terms. The Participation Rate is not available
on Index Performance Strategy 1-year Terms. Index Options with a Participation Rate may allow you to receive more than the Index Return
if the Index Return is positive, but the Participation Rate cannot boost Index Returns beyond any declared Cap. We do not
apply the Participation Rate if the Index Return is zero or negative. We do not
apply the Participation Rate annually. This method of calculation is also referred to as “enhanced upside”. We set Participation
Rates on each Term Start Date. The Participation Rates applicable to your Contract are shown on the Index Options Statement.
Payee
– the person or entity who receives Annuity Payments during the Annuity Phase.
Penalty-Free Withdrawals
– withdrawals you take that are not subject to a withdrawal charge. Penalty-Free Withdrawals include withdrawals you take under
the free withdrawal privilege or waiver of withdrawal charge benefit, and required minimum distribution payments (RMD payments) you take
under our minimum distribution program.
Performance Credit
– the return you receive on a Term End Date from the Index Option(s). We base Performance Credits on Index Values and Index Returns
after application of any Participation Rate up to the Cap, any Trigger Rate, or any Buffer or Floor. Performance Credits cannot be negative
with the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger Index Options. However,
Performance Credits can be negative with the Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index
Performance Strategy Index Options. If
Performance Credits are negative, you
can lose principal and previous earnings.
Performance Lock
– a feature that allows you to capture the current Index Option Value during the Term. A Performance Lock applies to the total
Index Option Value in an Index Option, and not just a portion of that Index Option Value. After the Lock Date, Daily Adjustments do not
apply to a locked Index Option for the remainder of the Term and the locked Index Option Value will not receive a Performance Credit on
the Term End Date. We will not execute a Performance Lock on Index Protection Strategy with Trigger Index Options if the Daily Adjustment
is zero.
Proxy Investment
– provides a current estimate of what the Performance Credit will be on the Term End Date taking into account any applicable Buffer,
Floor, Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or Participation Rate. We use the Proxy Investment to calculate the Daily Adjustment on Business Days other
than the Term Start Date or Term End Date. For more information, see Appendix C.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Proxy
Value – the hypothetical value of the Proxy Investment
used to calculate the Daily Adjustment as discussed in Appendix C.
Purchase Payment
– the money you put into the Contract.
Qualified Contract
– a Contract that qualifies for special tax treatment under sections of the Code. Currently, we issue Qualified Contracts that
may include, but are not limited to Roth IRAs, traditional IRAs and Simplified Employee Pension (SEP) IRAs. We may also issue an Inherited
IRA and Inherited Roth IRA to make any required minimum distribution payments to a beneficiary of a previously held tax-qualified arrangement.
Quarterly Contract
Anniversary – the day that occurs three calendar
months after the Issue Date or any subsequent Quarterly Contract Anniversary.
Separate Account
– Allianz Life Variable Account B is a separate investment account of Allianz Life. The variable investment portion of the Contract
is issued through the Separate Account. The Separate Account is divided into subaccounts, each of which is a variable investment option
under one or more variable annuity contracts that we issue through the Separate Account. The only subaccount currently available under
this Contract is the Variable Option, which invests exclusively in shares of the AZL Government Money Market Fund. The Separate Account
is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust, and may be referred to as the Registered Separate Account.
Service Center
– the area of our company that issues Contracts and provides Contract maintenance and routine customer service. Our Service Center
address and telephone number are listed at the back of this prospectus. The address for mailing applications, and/or checks for Purchase
Payments may be different and is also listed at the back of this prospectus.
Term –
the period of time, from the Term Start Date to the Term End Date, in which we measure Index Return to determine Performance Credits.
Term End Date –
the day on which a Term ends and we apply Performance Credits.
A Term End Date may only occur on an Index Anniversary. If a Term End Date does not occur on a Business Day, we consider it to occur on
the next Business Day.
Term Start Date
– the day on which a Term begins, and we set the
Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates for an Index Option. A Term Start Date may only occur on the Index Effective Date or an Index
Anniversary. However, if you execute an Early Reallocation, the Term Start Date will be the Business Day we receive your Early Reallocation
request in Good Order. If a Term Start Date does not occur on a Business Day, we consider it to occur on the next Business Day.
Traditional Death
Benefit – the guaranteed death benefit automatically
provided by the Contract for no additional fee described in section 11.
Trigger Rate
– this is the positive Performance Credit you receive on a Term End Date for any Index Option with the Index Protection Strategy
with Trigger, Index Dual Precision Strategy, or Index Precision Strategy. You receive the Trigger Rate on the Term End Date if the current
Index Value is equal to or greater than the Index Value on the Term Start Date. For the Index Dual Precision Strategy, you also receive
the Trigger Rate if the Index Return is negative and the loss is less than or equal to the Buffer. This method of calculation is also
referred to as “step-up”. For the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger, you will not receive a negative Performance Credit
if the Index Value decreases from the Term Start Date to the Term End Date. For the Index Dual Precision Strategy and the Index Precision
Strategy, you will receive a negative Performance Credit if the Index Value decreases from the Term Start Date to the Term End Date and
the negative Index Return extends beyond the Buffer. We do not
apply the Trigger Rate annually on 3-year and 6-year Term Index Options. On each Term Start Date, we set a Trigger Rate for each Index
Option with the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger, Index Dual Precision Strategy, and Index Precision Strategy. The Trigger Rates
provide predefined upside potential. The Trigger Rates applicable to your Contract are shown on the Index Options Statement.
Valid Claim
– the documents we require to be received in Good Order at our Service Center before we pay any death claim. This includes the
death benefit payment option, due proof of death, and any required governmental forms. Due proof of death includes a certified copy of
the death certificate, a decree of court of competent jurisdiction as to the finding of death, or any other proof satisfactory to us.
Variable Account
Value – on any Business Day it is equal to the value
of the units in the Variable Option attributable to your Contract.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Variable
Option – a subaccount of the Separate Account, and
the only variable investment option under the Contract. The Variable Option invests exclusively in the shares of the AZL Government Money
Market Fund. You cannot allocate Purchase Payments or other amounts in your Contract (e.g., earnings) to the Variable Option.
Withdrawal Charge
Basis – the total amount under your Contract that
is subject to a withdrawal charge as discussed in section 7, Expenses and Adjustments – Withdrawal Charge.

Overview
of the Contract
What
Is the Purpose of the Contract?
The Index Advantage+ NF®
is a product that offers Index Options and allows you to defer taking regular fixed periodic payments (Annuity
Payments) to a future date. Under the Contract, you make
one or more Purchase Payments. Except for Purchase Payments received on the Index Effective Date or an Index Anniversary, each Purchase
Payment is first invested for a limited time in the Variable Option and then transferred to the Index Option(s) that you select for investment.
Depending on several factors (e.g.,
Index Options you select, market conditions, and timing of any withdrawals), your Contract can gain or lose value. When you are ready
to receive a guaranteed stream of income under your Contract, you can annuitize the Contract and begin receiving Annuity Payments from
us based on the payment option you select (Annuity
Options). The Contract includes, for no additional charge,
a standard death benefit (the Traditional Death Benefit), or for an additional rider fee you may select the optional death benefit (the
Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit) to replace the standard death benefit. Both death benefits may help to financially protect your
Beneficiaries.
We designed the Contract for people
who are looking for a death benefit for a period of time, and a level of protection for their principal investment while providing potentially
higher returns than are available on traditional fixed annuities. In addition, you should have a long investment time horizon and your
financial goals should be otherwise consistent with the terms and conditions of the Contract. This Contract is not intended for someone
who is seeking complete protection from downside risk, seeking unlimited investment potential, or expecting to take withdrawals that will
not be subject to withdrawal charges or Daily Adjustments (i.e.,
a person that does not need access to Contract Value within six years after we receive a Purchase Payment, or before an Index Option’s
Term End Date). If you have Index Options with different Term End Dates, there may be no time you can take a withdrawal without application
of at least one Daily Adjustment.
We offer other annuity contracts
that may address your investment and retirement needs. These contracts include other registered index-linked annuities and fixed index
annuities. These annuity products offer different features and benefits that may be more appropriate for your needs, including allocation
options, and may have fees and/or expenses that are different from those in the Contract offered by this prospectus. Not every contract
is offered through every Financial Professional. Some Financial Professionals or selling firms may not offer and/or may limit offering
of certain features and benefits, as well as limit the availability of the contracts based on criteria established by the Financial Professional
or selling firm. For more information about other annuity contracts, please contact your Financial Professional.
The product or certain product features
may not be available in all states or may vary in your state (such as the free look). For more information see Appendix E – Material
Contract Variations by State and Issue Date. Availability of Index Options may vary by financial intermediary. You can obtain information
on which Index Options are available to you by calling (800) 624-0197, or from your Financial Professional.
What
Are the Phases of the Contract?
The Contract has two phases: (1)
an Accumulation Phase, and (2) an Annuity Phase.
Accumulation
Phase. This is the first phase of your Contract, and it
begins on the Issue Date. During the Accumulation Phase, your money is invested under the Contract on a tax-deferred basis. Tax deferral
may not be available for certain non-individually owned contracts. Tax deferral means you are not taxed on any earnings or appreciation
on the assets in your Contract until you take money out of your Contract. In addition, during this phase, you can make additional Purchase
Payments (subject to limitations), you can take withdrawals, and if you die, we pay a death benefit to your named Beneficiary(ies). For
more information regarding additional Purchase Payment limitations, please see section 3, Purchasing the Contract – Purchase Requirements.
Your Contract Value may fluctuate
up or down during the Accumulation Phase based on the performance of your selected Index Options and the Variable Option, as summarized
below. Additional information about the
Index Options and the Variable Option is provided in Appendix A – Investment Options Available Under the Contract.
●
Index
Options. You may allocate your Purchase Payments to any
or all of the Index Options available under your Contract. The
Contract currently offers Index Options with different types of Crediting Methods, including the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger,
Index Precision Strategy, Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy.
We credit positive, zero, or negative
Performance Credits (i.e.,
positive, zero, or negative interest) at the end of a Term for amounts allocated to an Index Option based, in part, on the performance
of the applicable Index (the Index Return).
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Each
Index Option offers a certain level of protection from negative Index Returns.
The
Index Protection Strategy with Trigger offers complete (or 100%) protection from negative Index Returns. For example, if at the end of
a Term, the Index Return is -25%, we will apply a 0% Performance Credit to your investment (i.e.,
no loss due to the negative Index Return).
Other
Index Options include a feature, either a Buffer or Floor, that provides limited protection from negative Index Returns. Under these other
Index Options, you may lose a significant amount of money if an Index declines in value.
Buffer
– A Buffer is the maximum amount of negative Index Return that we
absorb before applying a negative Performance Credit. For example, if at the end of a Term, the Index Return is -25% and the Buffer is
10%, we apply a Performance Credit of -15%, meaning your Contract Value allocated to that Index Option will decrease by 15% since the
Term Start Date. This reflects the negative Index Return that exceeds the protection of the 10% Buffer. The Index Precision Strategy,
Index Dual Precision Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy offer Index Options with Buffers.
Floor
– A Floor, on the other hand, is the maximum amount of negative Index Return you absorb as a negative Performance Credit. We absorb
any negative Index Return beyond the Floor. For example, if the Index Return is -25% and the Floor is -10%, we apply a Performance Credit
of -10%, meaning your Contract Value allocated to that Index Option will decrease by 10% since the Term Start Date. This reflects the
negative Index Return down to the -10% Floor and no further reduction in Index Option Value occurring as a result. The Index Guard Strategy
offers Index Options with a Floor.
The
current limit on Index loss for an Index Option will not change for the life of that Index Option. However, we reserve the right to add
new Index Options, as well as close Index Options to new Purchase Payments and transfers. As such, the limits on Index loss offered under
the Contract may change from one Term to the next if we add an Index Option or discontinue accepting new allocations into an Index Option.
If
we offer a new Index Option with a Buffer or Floor in the future, the Buffer or Floor will be no lower than 5% or -25%, respectively.
At
least one Index Option with a Buffer no lower than 5% or Floor no lower than -25%,
or an Index Option that provides complete protection from Index losses, will always be available for renewal under the Contract.
Each
Index Option also has an upside feature, either a Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or Participation Rate, used in the calculation of positive Performance
Credits, if any, that may be credited to your investment at the end of a Term. We may limit the amount you can earn on
an Index Option based on the Trigger Rate, Cap or Participation Rate, as applicable.
Trigger
Rate – A Trigger Rate represents the positive Performance
Credit, if any, that may apply on the Term End Date. The Index Precision Strategy, Index Dual Precision Strategy, and Index Protection
Strategy with Trigger offer Index Options with a Trigger Rate.
For
the Index Precision Strategy and Index Protection Strategy with Trigger, the Trigger Rate will apply if the Index Return is positive or
zero. For example, if at the end of a Term, the Index Return is 6% and the Trigger Rate is 3%, we apply a Performance Credit of 3%, meaning
your Contract Value allocated to that Index Option will increase by 3% since the Term Start Date.
For
the Index Dual Precision Strategy, the Trigger Rate will apply if the Index Return is positive, zero, or to a limited extent, negative.
For example, assume a Trigger Rate of 3% and a Buffer of 10%. If at the end of a Term, the Index Return is positive, zero, or negative
but no lower than -10% (i.e., not in excess of the Buffer), we apply a positive Performance Credit of 3%, meaning your Contract Value
allocated to that Index Option will increase by 3% since the Term Start Date. However, if the negative Index Return were lower than -10%
(i.e., in excess of the Buffer), we apply a negative Performance Credit equal to the negative Index Return plus the Buffer, as previously
summarized above.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
−
Cap
– A Cap represents the maximum positive Performance Credit, if any, applied on a Term End Date. For example, if at the end of a
Term, the Index Return is 12% and the Cap is 10%, we apply a Performance Credit of 10%, meaning your Contract Value allocated to that
Index Option will increase by 10% since the Term Start Date. The Index Guard Strategy and Index Performance Strategy offer Index Options
with a Cap. Index Performance Strategy multi-year Term Index Options have both a Cap and a Participation Rate (as described below).
Participation
Rate – A Participation Rate is the percentage that
is multiplied by a positive Index Return in calculating a positive Performance Credit, if any, subject to any applicable Cap. For example,
if at the end of a Term, the Participation Rate is 100%, the Cap is 15%, and the Index Return is 12% (which is lower than the Cap), we
apply a Performance Credit of 12% (i.e.,
100% x 12%). However, if the Index Return were instead 20% (which is higher than the Cap), we would apply the Cap and a Performance Credit
of 15% would be applied. Index Performance Strategy multi-year Term Index Options have both a Participation Rate and a Cap.
The
Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or Participation Rate for an Index Option will change from Term to Term, subject to a specified guaranteed minimum
that will not change for the life of that Index Option. Guaranteed minimum Trigger Rates, Caps, and/or Participation Rates vary by Index
Option.
If
we add a new Index Option to the Contract in the future, the lowest Trigger Rate, Cap, and Participation Rate that we may establish are
0.05%, 0.10%, and 5.00%, respectively. For example, if the Trigger Rate for a new Index Option is 0.05% and the Index Return is 10%, a
0.05% Performance Credit would be applied. Similarly, if the Cap for a new Index Option is 0.10% and the Index Return is 10%, a 0.10%
Performance Credit would be applied. If the Participation Rate for a new Index Option is 5.00%, the Index Option is uncapped, and the
Index Return is 10%, a 0.50% Performance Credit would be applied.
●
Variable
Option. You cannot instruct us to allocate your Purchase
Payments to the Variable Option available under your Contract. We only allow assets to move into the Index Options on Term Start Dates
and Term End Dates. As a result, we hold Purchase Payments you allocate to the Index Options in the Variable Option when we receive them
on days other than the Index Effective Date or Index Anniversaries. We then transfer them to the Index Options on the next Index Anniversary
according to your allocation instructions. The Variable Option invests in an underlying fund, the AZL Government Money Market Fund, which
has its own investment objective, strategies, and risks. Purchase Payments held in the Variable Option are subject to Fund fees and expenses,
and Fund performance (which can be negative) until being transferred to the Index Options.
Annuity
Phase. If you request Annuity Payments, the Accumulation
Phase ends and the Annuity Phase
begins. Annuity Payments are fixed payments we make based on the Annuity Option you select and your Contract Value (which reflects any
previously deducted Contract fees and expenses) less final rider fee (if applicable). Annuity Payments can provide a guaranteed lifetime
fixed income stream with certain tax advantages. We designed the Annuity Payments for Owners who no longer need immediate access to Contract
Value to meet their short-term income needs.
During the Annuity Phase, you will
receive a stream of regular income in the form of Annuity Payments. You will be unable to take withdrawals upon demand, your selected
death benefit ends, and no amounts will be payable upon death during the Annuity Phase unless your Annuity Option provides otherwise.
What
Are the Contract’s Primary Features?
●
Accessing
Your Money. During the Accumulation Phase, you can surrender
the Contract (take a full withdrawal) or take partial withdrawals. Withdrawals may be subject to negative Daily Adjustments, are subject
to a withdrawal charge, income taxes, and may also be subject to a 10% additional federal tax for amounts withdrawn before age 59 1∕2.
●
Additional
Purchase Payments. Subject to the limitations described
in this prospectus, we continue to accept additional Purchase Payments under the Contracts during the Accumulation Phase. However, we
may terminate your ability to make additional Purchase Payments in the future. We only allow additional Purchase Payments to move into
Index Options on the Index Effective Date or Index Anniversaries. As a result, we hold Purchase Payments in the Variable Option when we
receive them on days other than the Index Effective Date or Index Anniversaries. We then transfer them to the Index Options on the Index
Effective Date or next Index Anniversary according to your allocation instructions. For that reason, such Purchase Payments are not available
to receive Performance Credits until we transfer them to your selected Index Options and those Index Options reach their respective Term
End Dates. We do not allow assets to move into an established Index Option until the Term End Date. If you request to allocate a Purchase
Payment into an established Index Option on an Index Anniversary that is not a Term End Date, we will allocate those assets to the same
Index Option with a new Term Start Date. Purchase Payments held in the Variable Option are subject to Fund fees and expenses, and Fund
performance (which can be negative) until being transferred to the Index Options.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
●
Death
Benefits. The Contract’s death benefit is paid upon
the first death of any Determining Life during the Accumulation Phase. The Contract includes, for no additional charge, a standard death
benefit (the Traditional Death Benefit).
At the time of purchase, you may select the optional death benefit (the
Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit) to replace the
standard death benefit for an additional rider fee. Either death benefit is the greater of Contract Value, or the Guaranteed Death Benefit
Value. Unlike the Traditional Death Benefit, however, the Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit locks in any annual investment gains
as part of the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value to potentially provide a death benefit greater than the Traditional Death Benefit (which
is based on Purchase Payments). The Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit cannot be less than the Traditional Death Benefit, but they
can be equal.
●
Withdrawal
Charge Waivers. Under the free withdrawal privilege, you
may withdraw up to 10% of your total Purchase Payments each Contract Year during the Accumulation Phase without incurring a withdrawal
charge. Upon a full withdrawal, the free withdrawal privilege is not available to you. We do not apply a withdrawal charge to deductions
we make for Contract fees or expenses. In most states (see Appendix E), the waiver of withdrawal charge benefit allows you to take a withdrawal
after the first Contract Year without incurring a withdrawal charge if , after the first Contract Anniversary, you begin confinement for
care in an eligible facility for at least 90 days in a 120-day period, or are unable to perform at least two activities of daily living
for at least 90 continuous days. Also, if you own an IRA, Simplified Employee Pension (SEP) IRA, Inherited IRA, or Inherited Roth IRA
Contract, RMD payments you take under our minimum distribution program are not subject to a withdrawal charge. The minimum distribution
program is not available if you have a qualified plan Contract. Withdrawals under these waivers are still subject to income taxes (and
may also be subject to a 10% additional federal tax for amounts withdrawn before age 59 1∕2),
and to the Daily Adjustment if taken other than on the Term End Date, and may reduce Contract benefits (perhaps significantly and by more
than the amount withdrawn).
●
Performance
Lock and Early Reallocation. Performance Lock is a feature
that allows you to lock in an Index Option’s Index Option Value prior to the Term End Date. After the Lock Date, Daily Adjustments
do not apply to the locked Index Option for the remainder of the Term, and the locked Index Option Value will not receive a Performance
Credit on the Term End Date. If you exercise a Performance Lock, the Index Option Value stays in the locked Index Option for the remainder
of the current Index Year unless you execute an Early Reallocation (if available to you). Early Reallocation is a feature that allows
you to transfer assets out of a locked Index Option prior to the Term End Date, subject to certain conditions and limitations. Executing
an Early Reallocation will result in the remainder of the Index Year for the locked Index Option, from the date you execute the Early
Reallocation, being added to your new Term length.
What
is the Daily Adjustment?
The Daily Adjustment is how we calculate
Index Option Values on Business Days other than the Term Start Date or Term End Date. The
Variable Option is not subject to the Daily Adjustment.
Before
the end of an Index Option’s Term, if you take any type of withdrawal, execute a Performance Lock, begin Annuity Payments, or if
we pay a death benefit or deduct a fee or expense, we base the transaction on the interim Index Option Value, which includes the Daily
Adjustment. The Daily Adjustment approximates the Index Option Value that will be available on the Term End Date. It
is the estimated present value of the future Performance Credit that we will apply on the Term End Date. The Daily Adjustment for the
Index Protection Strategy with Trigger can only be positive or zero – it cannot be negative. However, the Daily Adjustment can
be positive, zero, or negative with the Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, or Index Performance
Strategy. The
Daily Adjustment fluctuates daily and, if it is negative, you could lose a significant amount of money.
The Daily Adjustment could result in a
loss beyond the protection of the Buffer or Floor. Although with the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger the Daily Adjustment cannot
be negative, deductions of Contract fees and expenses, including withdrawal charges, and tax consequences, could cause you to lose principal
and previously credited earnings. The Daily Adjustment could reflect significantly less gain, or more loss than we would apply to an Index
Option at the end of a Term. If you have Index Options with different Term End Dates, there may be no time that any such transaction can
be performed without the application of at least one Daily Adjustment. Additionally,
if within six years after we receive a Purchase Payment, you take a full or partial withdrawal, such transactions are subject to a withdrawal
charge, which may cause you to lose a significant amount of money.

For
example, for Contracts issued on or after May
1, 2024, if you invest $100,000 in the
Contract
and make an early withdrawal, you could pay a withdrawal charge of up to $8,000
(or
$8,500
for Contracts issued on or before April
30, 2024). This loss will be greater if there
is
a negative Daily Adjustment, income taxes, or tax penalties.
In
addition, if you take a full or partial withdrawal from an Index Option on a date other than
the
Term End Date, a Daily Adjustment will apply to the Index Option Value available for
withdrawal.
The Daily Adjustment also applies if before the Term End Date you execute a
Performance
Lock, you annuitize the Contract, we pay a death benefit, or we deduct
Contract
fees and expenses. The Daily Adjustment may be negative depending on the
applicable
Crediting Method. You will lose money if the Daily Adjustment is negative.
●Index
Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy,
and
Index Performance Strategy. Daily Adjustments
under these Crediting Methods
may
be positive, negative, or equal to zero. A negative Daily Adjustment will result in a
loss,
and could result in a loss beyond the protection of the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer;
or
-10% Floor, as applicable. The maximum potential loss from a negative Daily
Adjustment
is: -99% for the Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy,
and
Index Performance Strategy; and -35% for the Index Guard Strategy. For
example,
if you allocate $100,000 to a 1-year Term Index Option with 10% Buffer and
later
withdraw the entire amount before the Term has ended, you could lose up to
$99,000
of your investment. This loss will be greater if you also have to pay a
withdrawal
charge, income taxes, and tax penalties.

Is
This a
Short-Term
Investment?
|
No,
this Contract is not a short-term investment and is not appropriate if you need ready
access
to cash.
• Considering
the benefits of tax deferral and long-term income, the Contract is generally
more
beneficial to investors with a long investment time horizon.
• Withdrawals
are subject to income taxes, and may also be subject to a 10% additional
federal
tax for amounts withdrawn before age 59 1∕2.
• If,
within six years after we receive a Purchase Payment, you take a full or partial
withdrawal,
withdrawal charges will apply. A withdrawal charge will reduce your Contract
Value
or the amount of money that you actually receive. Withdrawals may reduce or end
Contract
guarantees.
• Amounts
invested in an Index Option must be held in the Index Option for the full Term
before
they can receive a Performance Credit. We apply a Daily Adjustment if, before the
Term
End Date, you take a full or partial withdrawal, you execute a Performance Lock,
you
annuitize the Contract, we pay a death benefit, or we deduct Contract fees and
expenses.
• The
Daily Adjustment may be negative with the Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index
Precision
Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy. You will lose
money
if the Daily Adjustment is negative.
• Withdrawals
and other deductions from an Index Option prior to a Term End Date will
result
in a proportionate reduction to your Index Option Base. The proportionate reduction
could
be greater than the amount withdrawn or deducted. Reductions to your Index
Option
Base will result in lower Index Option Values for the remainder of the Term and
lower
gains (if any) on the Term End Date.
• On
the Term End Date, you can transfer assets invested in an Index Option by changing
your
allocation instructions. If you do not change your allocation instructions, you will
continue
to be invested in the same Index Option with a new Term Start Date. The new
Term
will be subject to the applicable renewal Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or Participation
Rate.

What
are the
Risks
Associated
with
the
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 Variable Option and the Index Options
available
under the Contract.
• The
Variable Option and each Index Option have their own unique risks.
• You
should review the Fund’s prospectus and disclosures, including risk factors, before
making
an investment decision.
• Caps
and Trigger Rates will limit positive Performance Credits (e.g., limited upside). This
may
result in earning less than the Index Return.
– For
example, if at the end of a 1-year Term, the Index Return is 25% and the Cap is
15%,
we apply a Performance Credit of 15%, meaning your Contract Value allocated
to
that Index Option will increase by 15% since the Term Start Date. If at the end of the
Term,
the Index Return is 6% and the Trigger Rate is 3%, we apply a Performance
Credit
of 3%, meaning your Contract Value allocated to that Index Option will increase
by
3% since the Term Start Date.
• The
Buffer or Floor will limit negative Performance Credits (e.g., limited protection in the
case
of Index decline). However,
you bear the risk for all Index losses that exceed
the
Buffer. You also bear the risk for Index losses down to the Floor.
– For
example, if at the end of a Term, the Index Return is -25% and the Buffer is 10%,
we
apply a Performance Credit of -15%, meaning your Contract Value allocated to that
Index
Option will decrease by 15% since the Term Start Date. If the Index Return is
-25%
and the Floor is -10%, we apply a Performance Credit of -10%, meaning your
Contract
Value allocated to that Index Option will decrease by 10% since the Term
Start
Date.
• The
Indexes are price return indexes, not total return indexes. This means that the Index
Options
do not receive any dividends payable on these securities. The Index Options also
do
not directly participate in the returns of the Indexes or the Indexes’ component
securities.
This will reduce the Index Return and may cause the Index to underperform a
direct
investment in the securities composing the Index. |

on subsequent Index Anniversaries as discussed in section 3, Purchasing the
Contract
– Allocation of Purchase Payments and Contract Value Transfers. However, if
you
execute an Early Reallocation, we will move assets into an Index Option on the
Business
Day we receive your Early Reallocation request in Good Order.
• You
can typically transfer Index Option Value only on Term End Dates. However, you can
transfer
assets out of an Index Option before the Term End Date by first executing a
Performance
Lock and then either requesting an Early Reallocation with new allocation
instructions
or changing your allocation instructions before the next Index Anniversary.
For
more information, see section 6, Valuing Your Contract – Performance Locks and
Early
Reallocations.
• We
do not allow assets to move into an established Index Option until the Term End Date.
If
you request to allocate a Purchase Payment into an established Index Option on an
Index
Anniversary that is not a Term End Date, we will allocate those assets to the same
Index
Option with a new Term Start Date.
• We
reserve the right to substitute the Fund in which the Variable Option invests. We also
reserve
the right to close Index Options to new Purchase Payments and transfers, and to
substitute
Indexes either on a Term Start Date or during a Term.
• We
also reserve the right to decline any or all Purchase Payments at any time on a
nondiscriminatory
basis.
• Caps,
Trigger Rates, and Participation Rates will change from one Term to the next
subject
to their contractual minimum guarantees.
• The
10%, 20%, and 30% Buffers, and -10% Floors for the currently available Index
Options
do not change. However, if we add a new Index Option to your Contract after the
Issue
Date, we establish the Buffer or Floor for it on the date we add the Index Option to
your
Contract. For a new Index Option, the minimum Buffer is 5% and the minimum Floor
is
-25%. |

|
Whether
to exchange your existing Contract for a new contract is a decision that each
investor
should make based on their personal circumstances and financial objectives.
However,
in making this decision you should be aware that some Financial Professionals
may
have a financial incentive to offer you a new contract in place of one you already own.
You
should only exchange your Contract if you determine, after comparing the features,
risks,
and fees of both contracts, including 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.

This table shows the maximum potential loss due to
the application of the Daily Adjustment (e.g., maximum loss could occur if there is a total distribution within a Term at a time when
the Index price has declined to zero). The Daily Adjustment could result in a loss beyond the protection of the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer;
or -10% Floor. The Daily Adjustment applies if, before the Term End Date, you take a full or partial withdrawal, you execute a Performance
Lock, you annuitize the Contract, we pay a death benefit, or we deduct Contract fees or expenses. The actual Daily Adjustment calculation
is determined by a formula described in Appendix C.
The next table describes
the fees and expenses that you will pay each year during the time that you own the Contract (not including Fund fees and expenses). If
you purchased the optional Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit, you pay additional charges, as shown below.

at least $100,000. During the Annuity Phase, we deduct the contract maintenance charge proportionately from each Annuity Payment. See
section 7, Expenses and Adjustments – Contract Maintenance Charge (Administrative Expenses).
In addition to the
fees described above, we may limit the amount you can earn on the Index Options. This means your returns may be lower than the Index’s
returns. In return for accepting a limit on Index gains, you will receive some protection from Index losses.

This Example is
intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Variable Option with the cost of investing in other annuity contracts that offer
variable options. These costs include transaction expenses, annual Contract expenses, and annual Fund expenses.
The Example assumes
all Contract Value is allocated to the Variable Option, even though you cannot instruct us to allocate Purchase Payments to the Variable
Option. The Example does not reflect the Daily Adjustment. Your costs could differ from those shown below when you invest in the
Index Options.
The Example assumes
that you invest $100,000 in the Variable Option for the time periods indicated. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5%
return each year and that you elected the Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit for an additional charge. Although your actual

Principal
Risks of Investing In the Contract
The Contract involves certain risks
that you should understand before investing. You should carefully consider your income needs and risk tolerance to determine whether the
Contract is appropriate for you. The level of risk you bear and your potential investment performance will differ depending on the Index
Options you choose.
Returns on securities and securities
Indexes can vary substantially, which may result in investment losses. The historical performance of the Investment Options does not guarantee
future results. It is impossible to predict whether underlying investment values will fall or rise. Trading prices of the securities underlying
the Investment Options are influenced by economic, financial, regulatory, geographic, judicial, political and other complex and interrelated
factors. These factors can affect capital markets generally and markets on which the underlying securities are traded and these factors
can influence the performance of the underlying securities. Depending on your individual circumstances (e.g.,
your selected Index Options and the timing of any Purchase Payments, transfers, or withdrawals), you may experience (perhaps significant)
negative returns under the Contract. You should consult with a Financial Professional.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
The Variable
Option does not provide any protection against loss of principal. You
can lose principal and previous earnings for Purchase Payments held in the Variable Option and such losses could be significant.
If you allocate Purchase Payments
or transfer Contract Value to an Index Option with the Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard
Strategy, or Index Performance Strategy, negative Index Returns may cause Performance Credits to be either negative after application
of the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer, or negative down to the -10% Floor. For the Index Dual Precision Strategy and Index Performance Strategy,
we apply the Buffer for the entire Term length; we do not apply the Buffer annually on a 3-year or 6-year Term Index Option. Ongoing
deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses could also cause amounts available for withdrawal to be less than what you invested
even if Index performance has been positive. You
can lose principal and previous earnings if you allocate Purchase Payments or transfer Contract Value to the Index Options with the Index
Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, or Index Performance Strategy, and such losses could
be significant. If you allocate Purchase Payments or transfer Contract Value to the Index Options with the Index Protection Strategy with
Trigger you can also lose principal and previous earnings if you do not receive a Performance Credit, or if the Contract fees and
expenses are greater than the Performance Credit.
The maximum potential
negative Performance Credit for the Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy is based
on the Buffer. If the Buffer is 10%, the maximum negative Performance Credit is -90%; if the Buffer is 20%, the maximum negative Performance
Credit is -80%; and if the Buffer is 30%, the maximum negative Performance Credit is -70%. The maximum potential negative Performance
Credit for the Index Guard Strategy is the -10% Floor. Such
losses will be greater if you take a withdrawal that is subject to a withdrawal charge, or is a deduction of Contract fees and expenses.
At least one Index Option with a Buffer no lower than 5% or Floor no lower than -25%, or an Index Option that provides complete protection
from Index losses, will always be available for renewal under the Contract.
We designed the Contract to be a
long-term investment that you can use to help build and provide income for retirement. The Contract is not suitable for short-term investment.
If you need to take a full or partial
withdrawal during the withdrawal charge period we deduct a withdrawal charge unless the withdrawal is a Penalty-Free Withdrawal. While
Penalty-Free Withdrawals provide some liquidity, they are permitted in only limited amounts or in special circumstances. If you need to
withdraw most or all of your Contract Value in a short period, you will exceed the Penalty-Free Withdrawal amounts available to you and
incur withdrawal charges. For more information on the withdrawal charge, see the Fee Tables and section 7, Expenses and Adjustments –
Withdrawal Charge.
We calculate the withdrawal charge
as a percentage of your Purchase Payments, not Contract Value. Consequently, if the Contract Value has declined since you made a Purchase
Payment, it is possible the percentage of Contract Value withdrawn to cover the withdrawal charge would be greater than the withdrawal
charge percentage. For example, assume you buy the Contract with a single Purchase Payment of $10,000. If your Contract Value in the fifth
year is $8,000 and you take a full withdrawal a 5% withdrawal charge applies. The total withdrawal charge would be $500 (5% of $10,000).
As your Contract Value is less than $100,000, we will also deduct the $50 contract maintenance charge. This results in you receiving $7,450. For
purposes of this example, we have not factored in any final rider fees that may apply and be deducted in connection with a full withdrawal.
In addition, upon a full withdrawal,
the free withdrawal privilege is not available to you, and we apply a withdrawal charge against Purchase Payments that are still within
their withdrawal charge period, including amounts previously withdrawn under the free withdrawal privilege. On
a full withdrawal, your Withdrawal Charge Basis may be greater than your Contract Value because the following reduce your Contract Value,
but do not reduce your Withdrawal Charge Basis: deductions we make for prior Penalty-Free Withdrawals and Contract fees or expenses; and/or
poor performance.
Amounts withdrawn from this Contract
are subject to income taxes and may also be subject to a 10% additional federal tax for amounts withdrawn before age 59 1∕2.
We only apply Performance Credits
to the Index Options once each Term on the Term End Date, rather than daily. In the interim, we calculate Index Option Values based on
the Daily Adjustment. For more information, see “Risks Associated with the Daily Adjustment” later in this section. The
Variable Option is not subject to the Daily Adjustment. Any assets removed from an Index Option during the Term for withdrawals you take
(including Penalty-Free Withdrawals), Annuity Payments, or deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses, or if we pay a death benefit,
will not be eligible to
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
receive a Performance
Credit on the Term End Date. These removed assets will not receive the full benefit of the Index Value, Index Return, and the 10%, 20%,
or 30% Buffer; or -10% Floor that would have been available on the Term End Date, and losses could exceed the protection offered by the
10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer; or -10% Floor. You will receive a Performance Credit only on any unlocked Index Option Value remaining in an
Index Option on the Term End Date.
You can typically transfer Index
Option Value among the Index Options only on Term End Dates. At other times, you can only move assets out of an Index Option by taking
a full or partial withdrawal, or entering the Annuity Phase. However, you can transfer assets out of an Index Option before the Term End
Date by executing a Performance Lock. Once an Index Option is locked, you can transfer assets out of it on the Index Anniversary that
occurs on or immediately after the Lock Date. For a 3-year or 6-year Term Index Option this means you can transfer out of the locked Index
Option before the Term End Date by executing a Performance Lock on or before the second Index Anniversary of a 3-year Term, or on or before
the fifth Index Anniversary of a 6-year Term. You can also transfer assets out of any locked Index Option, including 1-year Term
Index Options, before the Term End Date by requesting an Early Reallocation. You may execute twelve Early Reallocations each Index Year,
but each request can involve multiple locked Index Options. These restrictions may limit your ability to react to changes in market conditions.
You should consider whether investing in an Index Option is consistent with your financial needs.
Index Option returns depend on the
performance of an Index although you are not directly invested in the Index or in the securities tracked by the Index. You will have no
voting rights, no rights to receive cash dividends or other distributions, and no other rights with respect to the companies that make
up the Indexes. Because the S&P 500®
Index, Russell 2000®
Index, Nasdaq-100®
Index, EURO STOXX 50®
and iShares®
MSCI Emerging Markets ETF are each comprised of a collection of equity securities, in each case the value of the component securities
is subject to market risk, or the risk that market fluctuations may cause the value of the component securities to go up or down, sometimes
rapidly and unpredictably. In addition, the value of equity securities may decline for reasons directly related to the issuers of the
securities.
The S&P 500®
Index, Russell 2000®
Index, Nasdaq-100®
Index, and EURO STOXX 50®
are all “price return indexes,” not “total return indexes,” and therefore do not reflect dividends paid on
the securities composing the Index. This will reduce the Index Return and may cause the Index to underperform a direct investment in the
securities composing the Index. For the EURO STOXX 50®,
this Index is a euro “price return index” and Index Returns are determined without any exchange rate adjustment. Because
Index performance for the iShares®
MSCI Emerging Markets ETF is based on the ETF’s closing share price, Index performance is calculated on a “price return”
basis, not a “total return” basis, and therefore does not reflect dividends paid on the securities in which the ETF invests.
In addition, an ETF deducts fees and costs, which reduce Index performance. These factors will reduce the Index Return and may cause the
ETF to underperform a direct investment in the ETF or the securities in which the ETF invests.
In addition to the foregoing, each
Index has its own unique risks, as follows:
S&P
500®
Index: This Index is comprised of equity securities issued
by large-capitalization (“large cap”) U.S. companies. In general, large capitalization companies may be unable to respond
quickly to new competitive challenges or changes in their industries, and may not be able to attain the high growth rate of successful
smaller companies.
Russell
2000®
Index: This Index is comprised of equity securities of
small-capitalization (“small-cap”) U.S. companies. Generally, the securities of small-cap companies are more volatile and
riskier than the securities of large-cap companies.
Nasdaq-100®
Index: This Index is comprised of equity securities of
the largest U.S. and non-U.S. companies listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, including companies across all major industry groups except
financial companies. In general, large-capitalization companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges or changes
in their industries, and may not be able to attain the high growth rate of successful smaller companies. To the extent that the Index
is comprised of securities issued by companies in a particular sector, those securities may not perform as well as the securities of companies
in other sectors or the market as a whole. Also, any securities issued by non-U.S. companies are subject to the risks related to investments
in foreign markets (e.g.,
increased volatility; changing currency exchange rates; and greater political, regulatory, and economic uncertainty).
EURO
STOXX 50®:
This Index is comprised of the equity securities of large-capitalization companies in the Eurozone. In general, large-capitalization companies
may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges or changes in their industries, and may not be able to attain the high
growth rate of successful smaller companies. Securities issued by non-U.S. companies are subject to the risks related to investments in
foreign markets (e.g.,
increased volatility; changing currency exchange rates; and greater political, regulatory, and economic uncertainty).
Index

Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
●
iShares®
MSCI Emerging Markets ETF: The iShares MSCI Emerging Markets
ETF seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of large- and mid-capitalization emerging market equities. Investments
in emerging market issuers may be subject to a greater risk of loss than investments in issuers located or operating in more developed
markets. Emerging markets may be more likely to experience inflation, social instability, political turmoil or rapid changes in economic
conditions than more developed markets. Companies in many emerging markets are not subject to the same degree of regulatory requirements,
accounting standards or auditor oversight as companies in more developed countries, and as a result, information about the securities
in which the ETF invests may be less reliable or complete. Emerging markets often have less reliable securities valuations and greater
risk associated with custody of securities than developed markets. There may be significant obstacles to obtaining information necessary
for investigations into or litigation against companies and shareholders may have limited legal remedies.
Risks
Associated with the Daily Adjustment
The Daily Adjustment is how we calculate
Index Option Values on Business Days other than the Term Start Date or Term End Date. The
Variable Option is not subject to the Daily Adjustment.
The Daily Adjustment can affect the amounts available for withdrawal, Performance Locks, annuitization, payment of the death benefit,
and the Contract Value used to determine the contract maintenance charge and Charge Base for the rider fee. The Daily Adjustment
can be less than the Trigger Rate or Cap even if the current Index return during the Term is greater than the Trigger Rate or Cap. In
addition, even though the current Index return during the Term may be positive, the Daily Adjustment may be negative due to changes in
Proxy Value inputs, such as volatility, dividend yield, and interest rate. However, the Daily Adjustment for the Index Protection Strategy
with Trigger cannot be negative. The Daily Adjustment is generally negatively affected by:
poor
market performance, and
the
expected volatility of Index prices. Generally, increases in the expected volatility of Index prices negatively affect the Index Dual
Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy 1-year Term Index Options, while decreases in the expected
volatility of Index prices negatively affect the Index Guard Strategy. For the Index Performance Strategy 3-year and 6-year Term Index
Options, the impact of changes in the expected volatility of Index prices is dependent on the market environment and the applicable Caps
and Participation Rates. For the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger, the impact of changes in the expected volatility of Index prices
is dependent on the market environment.
The Daily Adjustment for Index Options
with a Term length of more than 1 year (3-year and 6-year Term Index Options and Early Reallocation to a 1-year Term Index Option) may
be more negatively impacted by changes in the expected volatility of Index prices than 1-year Term Index Options due to the difference
in Term length. Also, the risk of a negative Daily Adjustment is generally greater for Index Options with a Term length of more than 1
year than for 1-year Term Index Options due to the Term length. The Index Performance Strategy 3-year and 6-year Term Index Options with
a Participation Rate above 100% may also have larger fluctuations in the Daily Adjustment than Index Options either without a Participation
Rate, or with a Participation Rate equal to 100%. For shorter Term lengths, there is more certainty in both the final Index Values and
how Trigger Rates, Caps, Buffers, and Floors determine Performance Credits. This means there may be less fluctuation in the Daily Adjustment
due to changes in Index return for Index Options with shorter Term lengths.
If you take a withdrawal from an
Index Option with the Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, or Index Performance Strategy
before the Term End Date, you could lose
principal and previous earnings because of the Daily Adjustment even
if Index performance is positive on that day or has been positive since the Term Start Date.
If the current Index return during the Term is negative, the Daily Adjustment for these Index Options could result in losses greater than
the protection provided by the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer; or -10% Floor.
The maximum potential loss from a negative
Daily Adjustment is: -99% for the Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy; and -35%
for the Index Guard Strategy. Such
losses will be greater if you take a withdrawal that is subject to a withdrawal charge, or is a deduction of Contract fees and expenses.
Risks
Associated with Calculation of Performance Credits
We calculate Performance Credits
each Term on the Term End Date. Because we calculate Index Returns only on a single date in time, you may experience negative or flat
performance even though the Index you selected for a given Crediting Method experienced gains through some, or most, of the Term. If you
allocate Purchase Payments or transfer Contract
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Value to the
Index Options with Index Protection Strategy with Trigger, positive returns are limited by the Trigger Rates. You are not subject, however,
to potential negative Performance Credits. The Trigger Rates on the Index Dual Precision Strategy and Index Precision Strategy Index
Options, and the Caps on the Index Guard Strategy and Index Performance Strategy Index Options also limit positive returns and could cause
performance to be lower than it would otherwise have been if you invested in a mutual fund or exchange-traded fund designed to track the
performance of the applicable Index. For the Index Performance Strategy, we apply the Cap and any Participation Rate for the entire Term
length; we do not
apply the Cap and any Participation Rate annually on a
3-year or 6-year Term Index Option. For the Index Dual Precision Strategy, we apply the Trigger Rate for the entire Term length; we do
not
apply the Trigger Rate annually on a 3-year or 6-year Term Index Option.
The Index Options do not receive
any dividends payable on these securities. The Index Options also do not directly participate in the returns of the Indexes or the Indexes’
component securities. Index Returns would be higher if they included the dividends from the component securities.
Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation
Rates may be adjusted on the next Term Start Date and may vary significantly from Term to Term. Changes to Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation
Rates may significantly affect the Performance Credit you receive. For more information, see the “Risks Associated with Changes
to Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates” discussion later in this section.
The Crediting Methods only capture
Index Values on the Term Start Date and Term End Date, so you will bear the risk that the Index Value might be abnormally low on these
days.
Risks
Associated with Performance Locks and Early Reallocations
If a Performance Lock is executed:
You
will no longer participate in Index performance, positive or negative, for the remainder of the Term for the locked Index Option. This
means that under no circumstances will your Index Option Value increase during the remainder of the Term for a locked Index Option, and
you will begin a new Index Option with a new Term Start Date on the next Index Anniversary that occurs on or immediately after the
Lock Date unless you execute an Early Reallocation (if available to you). If you decide to execute an Early Reallocation,
you can execute a Performance Lock and then, at the earliest, execute an Early Reallocation on the same Business Day. When executing both
the Performance Lock and Early Reallocation on the same Business Day, your Lock Date is also the Term Start Date for the new Index Option.
You
will not receive a Performance Credit on any locked Index Option on the Term End Date.
We
use the Daily Adjustment calculated at the end of the current
Business Day on the Lock Date to determine your locked Index Option Value. This means that, if you request a Performance Lock, your Index
Option Value will lock at an unknown future value which may be higher or lower than it was at the point in time you requested a Performance
Lock. In addition, if you set a lower target, your Index Option Value may lock at a lower value than the target you set.
If
a Performance Lock is executed when your Daily Adjustment has declined, you will lock in any loss. It is possible that you would have
realized less of a loss or no loss if the Performance Lock occurred at a later time, or if the Index Option was not locked.
We
will not execute a Performance Lock on the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger Index Options if the Daily Adjustment is zero. This
may limit your ability to take advantage of the benefits of the Early Reallocation feature.
There
are limits on Early Reallocations. We do not accept Early Reallocation requests within 14 calendar days before an Index Anniversary; and
you are limited to twelve Early Reallocation requests each Index Year, but each request can involve multiple locked Index Options. After
you reach the Early Reallocation request limit in an Index Year, any locked Index Options will remain locked until the next Index Anniversary.
These limitations mean you may not be able to take advantage of any increases to Early Reallocation rates, or any advantageous changes
to Index values that may become available at the optimal time. This may limit your return potential. Early Reallocation is available for
amounts allocated to any locked Index Option, subject to the restrictions described in this prospectus.
Early
Reallocation Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates you receive may be less than the Early Reallocation rates that become available
later in the Index Year, or the renewal rates available on the next Index Anniversary. This may limit your return potential.
We
will not provide advice or notify you regarding whether you should execute a Performance Lock or Early
Reallocation
or the optimal time for doing so. We will not warn you if you execute a Performance Lock or Early
Reallocation
at a sub-optimal time. We are not responsible for any losses related to your decision whether or not to
execute
a Performance Lock or Early Reallocation. |

Risks
Associated with Substitution of an Index and Limitation on Further Investments
There is no guarantee that the Indexes
will be available during the entire time that you own your Contract. Once we add an Index to your Contract, we cannot remove it without
simultaneously substituting it. For the Index Options, if we substitute a new Index for an existing Index, the performance of the new
Index may be different and this may affect your ability to receive positive Performance Credits.
Depending on the constitution of
the substituted Index, the volatility of its investments, and our ability to hedge the Index’s performance, we may determine, in
our discretion, to increase or decrease renewal Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates associated with the new Index, subject to
their respective minimums. However, we would not implement any change to reflect this difference until the next Term Start Date after
the substitution. The substitution of an Index during a Term may result in an abnormally large change in the Daily Adjustment on the day
we substitute the Index due to changes in Proxy Value inputs (such as volatility, dividend yield, and interest rate). However, you would
only be affected by this change in the Daily Adjustment if a transaction to which the Daily Adjustment applies (such as a withdrawal you
take) occurs on the substitution date.
Risks
Associated with Changes to Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates
The 10%, 20%, and 30% Buffers,
and -10% Floors for the currently available Index Options do not change. However, if we add a new Index Option to your Contract after
the Issue Date, we establish the Buffer or Floor for it on the date we add the Index Option to your Contract.
Subject to their respective minimums,
we establish the initial Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates for a newly issued Contract on the Index Effective Date and they
cannot change until the next Term Start Date. You select the Index Effective Date when you purchase your Contract. It can be any Business
Day from the Issue Date up to and including the first Quarterly Contract Anniversary, but it cannot be the 29th,
30th,
or 31st
of a month.
You should be aware
that, generally, initial Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates could change every seven calendar days. However, these rates are
guaranteed to be available during the period stated on our website at https://www.allianzlife.com/RILAratesnf
and cannot be superseded until that period ends. If you select an Index Effective Date that is within the guaranteed period for the initial
rates that are available for review on the date you signed your application, you will receive the initial rates that were available on
the date you signed your application. However, if you select an Index Effective Date that is after this guaranteed period, you are subject
to the risk that initial Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates may change and be less advantageous to you. You are responsible
for reviewing the initial rates before your Index Effective Date to ensure your allocations and the product still meet your needs. Furthermore,
if your Index Effective Date is after the end of the free look period and you cancel the Contract, you will receive the Cash Value. On
or before the Index Effective Date, the Daily Adjustment does not apply.
You may review future rates at least seven calendar days before their effectiveness at https://www.allianzlife.com/RILAratesnf.
Subject to the limitations related to designating the Index Effective Date, you (or your Financial Professional, if authorized) can change
your Index Effective Date at any time before it occurs to be an earlier or later date by submitting a request.
We can change the renewal and Early
Reallocation Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates for an existing Contract on each new Term Start Date subject to the guaranteed
minimums, in our discretion.
We will send you a letter at least
30 days before each Index Anniversary. This letter advises you that current Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates are expiring,
and that renewal rates for the next Term Start Date will be available for your review. The Index Anniversary letter also reminds you of
your opportunity to transfer your Index Option Values on the upcoming Term End Date. On each Term End Date, you have the option of
remaining allocated to your current Index Options at the renewal Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates that we set on the next
Term Start Date, or transferring to another permitted Index Option. At least seven calendar days before each Index Anniversary, we publish
renewal rates for the next Term Start Date for your review in your account on our website, and on our public website at https://www.allianzlife.com/RILAratesnf.
If you do not review renewal change information when it is published or take no action to transfer to another permitted Index Option,
you will remain allocated to your current Index Options and will automatically become subject to the renewal Trigger Rates, Caps, and
Participation Rates until the next Term End Date.
You risk the possibility that the
renewal Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates you receive may be less than you would find acceptable. If you do not find the renewal
rates acceptable, you must give us transfer instructions no later than the end of the Business Day on the Term End Date (or the next Business
Day if the Term End Date is a non-Business Day) or you will be subject to these renewal Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates for
the next Term.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
When your
renewal rates change, the only options available to you (other than to leave Index Option Value in the existing Index Option) are to transfer
Index Option Value between Index Options by changing your allocation instructions, or take a full withdrawal (which may be subject to
a withdrawal charge, is subject to income taxes, and may be subject to tax penalties).
If you execute a Performance Lock,
you may be able to request an Early Reallocation and begin a new Index Option with a new Term Start Date and a new Trigger Rate, Cap,
or Participation Rate before the next Index Anniversary. We can change Early Reallocation Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates
subject to the guaranteed minimums, in our discretion. We publish Early Reallocation rates at least seven calendar days before the end
of the current Early Reallocation offering period for your review in your account on our website. If you do not execute an Early Reallocation,
you will remain allocated to your current locked Index Options until the Index Anniversary that occurs on or immediately after the Lock
Date.
Initial, renewal, and Early Reallocation
Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates may vary significantly depending upon a variety of factors, including, but not limited to:
level
of downside protection,
our
hedging strategies and investment performance,
the
availability of hedging instruments,
the
amount of money available to us through Contract fees and expenses to purchase hedging instruments,
expenses
incurred by the Company,
your
Index Effective Date,
the
level of interest rates,
utilization
of Contract benefits by Owners, and
These factors also impact any new
Buffer or Floor Index Options that become available under the Contract. Due to a combination of factors, including potential changes in
interest rates and other market conditions (e.g. rising inflation), the current economic environment is evolving. The future impact on
initial, renewal, and Early Reallocation Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates cannot be predicted with certainty. The effect of
a change in interest rates or other market conditions may not be direct or immediate. There may be a lag in changes to Trigger Rates,
Caps, and Participation Rates. Interest rates could increase. In a rising interest rate environment, increases in initial Trigger Rates,
Caps, and Participation Rates, if any, may be substantially slower than increases in interest rates. However, a rising interest rate environment
may have the opposite effect on renewal rates and cause renewal Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates to decrease.
We manage our obligation to provide
Performance Credits in part by trading call and put options, and other derivatives on the available Indexes. The costs of the call and
put options and other derivatives vary based on market conditions, and we may adjust future renewal and Early Reallocation Trigger Rates,
Caps, and Participation Rates to reflect these cost changes. The primary factor affecting the differences in the initial Trigger Rates,
Caps, and Participation Rates for newly issued Contracts and renewal and Early Reallocation rates for existing Contracts is the difference
in what we can earn from these investments for newly issued Contracts versus what we are earning on the investments that were made for
existing Contracts. In some instances, we may need to reduce initial, renewal, and Early Reallocation Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation
Rates, or we may need to substitute an Index. You bear the risk that we may reduce Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates, which
reduces your opportunity to receive positive Performance Credits.
Risks
Associated with Investment in Derivative Hedging Instruments
The Index Options are supported by
bonds and other fixed income securities which are also used to support the Contract guarantees, cash, and derivative hedging instruments
used to hedge the movements of the applicable Index.
At Contract issue, we invest a substantial
majority of the initial Contract Value in fixed income securities, with most of the remainder invested in derivative hedging instruments.
The derivative hedging instruments are purchased to track and hedge Index movements and support our obligations with regard to the Index
Options. The derivative hedging instruments we purchase include put options, call options, futures, swaps, and other derivatives.
We currently limit our purchase of
derivative hedging instruments to liquid securities. However, like many types of derivative hedging instruments, these securities may
be volatile and their price may vary substantially. In addition, because
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
we pay Performance
Credits regardless of the performance of derivative hedging instruments we purchase, we may incur losses on hedging mismatches or errors
in hedging. We may incur additional costs if the costs of our hedging program increase due to market conditions or other factors. Our
overall experience with hedging securities may affect renewal and Early Reallocation Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates for
existing Contracts.
Other
Contract Changes Risk
We reserve the right to modify or
restrict several benefits or features of the Contract. We restrict additional Purchase Payments. Each Index Year during the Accumulation
Phase, you cannot add more than your initial amount without our prior approval. Your initial amount is the total of all Purchase Payments
received before the first Quarterly Contract Anniversary of the first Contract Year. We allow you to add up to the initial amount in the
remainder of the first Index Year. In addition to this Purchase Payment restriction, we reserve the right to decline any or all Purchase
Payments at any time on a nondiscriminatory basis. For Contracts issued in certain states, we reserve the right to hold your initial Purchase
Payment in the Variable Option until the free look period ends, and then reallocate your Contract Value, less fees and expenses, according
to your allocation instructions. For further information regarding Purchase Payment restrictions, see section 3, Purchasing the Contract
– Purchase Requirements.
As it relates to the Index Options,
we reserve the right to close Index Options to new Purchase Payments and transfers. However, once an Index Option is added to a Contract,
we cannot remove it, change how it calculates Performance Credits, or change its Buffer or Floor.
We also reserve the right to substitute
the Fund in which the Variable Option invests. We reserve the right to add or eliminate additional variable investment options. However,
the extent to which we add, eliminate, or substitute variable investment options will be consistent with federal securities laws and,
when required, the SEC.
In states that assess a premium tax,
we do not currently deduct it from the Contract, although we reserve the right to do so in the future.
Lastly, we reserve the right to treat
a partial withdrawal that reduces Contract Value below $2,000 as a full withdrawal. If Annuity Payments would be less than $100, we reserve
the right to require you to take a full withdrawal and your Contract will then terminate. However, we do not assess a withdrawal charge
on this full withdrawal.
Risks
Associated with Our Financial Strength and Claims-Paying Ability
We make Annuity Payments, and pay
death benefits from our general account. Our general account assets are subject to claims by our creditors, and any payment we make from
our general account is subject to our financial strength and claims-paying ability. We apply Performance Credits from an unregistered,
non-unitized, non-insulated separate account (Separate
Account IANA). Like our general account, the assets in
Separate Account IANA are subject to our general business operation liabilities and the claims of our creditors, and are also subject
to our financial strength and claims-paying ability. For more information on Separate Account IANA, see The Insurance Company, Separate
Accounts, and General Account – Our Unregistered Separate Account.
Business
and Operational Risks Relevant to the Contract
Business Disruption
and Cybersecurity Risks. Our business relies on technology
systems and networks, including systems and networks managed by third parties to process, transmit and store information, and to conduct
business activities and transactions with clients, distributors, vendors, and other third parties. Maintaining the integrity of our systems
is critical to our business operations and to the protection of our clients’ personal information. To date, we have not identified
any material breaches or interference with our systems and networks; however, we routinely encounter and address such threats. Any cybersecurity
breaches or interference that may in the future occur could have a material adverse impact on our business operations and our financial
condition.
Publicly-reported cybersecurity threats
and incidents have dramatically increased in recent years, and financial services companies and their third-party service providers are
increasingly the targets of cyberattacks involving the encryption and/or threat to disclose personal or confidential information (e.g.,
ransomware) or disruptions of communications (e.g.,
denial of service) to extort money or for other malicious purposes.
We have implemented and maintain
security measures designed to protect against breaches of security and other interference with systems and networks, and require third
party vendors to meet certain information security standards; however, we cannot ensure that our systems and networks will not be subject
to breaches or interference. Any such event may result in operational disruptions as well as unauthorized access to or the disclosure
or loss of our proprietary information or our clients’ personal information. Any such event may interfere with, impede or cause
delays in our
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
calculation of
values, processing of transactions and making of payments under the Contract. Even if we successfully protected our technology infrastructure
and the confidentiality of sensitive data, we may incur significant expenses in responding to any such attacks. Although we maintain cybersecurity
insurance coverage against costs resulting from cybersecurity incidents, it is possible losses will exceed the amount available under
our coverage. We cannot be certain that advances in criminal capabilities, discovery of new vulnerabilities, attempts to exploit vulnerabilities
in our systems, data thefts, physical system or network break-ins or inappropriate access, or other developments will not compromise or
breach the technology or other security measures protecting our networks and systems used in connection with our products and services,
and it is possible that a cybersecurity incident could persist for an extended period of time without detection.
Natural or Man-made
Disasters. The occurrence of natural or man-made disasters
(e.g.,
extreme weather events, acts of terrorism, geo-political disputes, public health crises, industrial accidents, blackouts, cyberattacks,
computer viruses, insider threats, insurrections and military actions, unanticipated problems with our disaster recovery systems, or support
failures from external providers) could adversely affect our business operations and our business results, particularly if those events
affect our computer-based data processing, transmission, storage, and retrieval systems or destroy data. Such disasters may damage our
facilities, preventing our employees from performing their roles, otherwise disturbing our ordinary business operations, and impacting
claims processing. We rely on certain third-parties to provide certain services important to our business operations. While we monitor
the business continuity planning of such third-parties, successful implementation and execution of their business continuity plans are
largely outside of our control. Weaknesses or failures within a vendor’s business continuity plan in light of a natural or man-made
disaster could materially disrupt our business operations.
The
Insurance Company, Separate Accounts, and General Account
The
Insurance Company – Allianz Life
Allianz Life is a stock life insurance
company organized under the laws of the state of Minnesota in 1896. Our address is 5701 Golden Hills Drive, Minneapolis, MN 55416. We
are a wholly owned subsidiary of Allianz of America, Inc. (AZOA), a financial holding company. AZOA is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allianz
Europe, B.V., which in turn is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allianz SE, which is registered in Munich, Germany. We currently offer fixed
index annuities, individual life insurance, and registered index-linked annuities. We are licensed to do direct business in 49 states
and the District of Columbia. We are obligated to pay all amounts promised to investors under the Contracts, subject to our financial
strength and claims-paying ability.
The
Registered Separate Account
We established Allianz Life Variable
Account B (the Separate Account) as a separate account under Minnesota insurance law on May 31, 1985. The Separate Account is registered
with the SEC as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The SEC does not supervise our management of the Separate
Account.
The Separate Account holds the Fund’s
shares that have been purchased with Contract assets. We keep the Separate Account assets separate from the assets of our general account
and other separate accounts, including the non-unitized separate accounts we established in connection with the Index Options. The Separate
Account is divided into subaccounts, each of which is a variable investment option under one or more variable annuity contracts that we
issue through the Separate Account. The only subaccount currently available under this Contract is the Variable Option, which invests
exclusively in shares of the AZL Government Money Market Fund.
We own the assets of the Separate
Account. Income, gains, and losses credited to, or charged against, the Separate Account reflect the Separate Account’s own investment
experience and not the investment experience of our other assets. The assets of the Separate Account may not be used to pay any liabilities
of Allianz Life other than those arising from the variable investment portion of the Contracts and other variable annuity contracts supported
by the Separate Account.
If the Separate Account’s
assets exceed the required reserves and other liabilities, we may transfer the excess to our general account, to the extent of seed money
invested by us or earned fees and expenses.

Our
General Account
Our general account holds all our
assets other than assets in our separate accounts. We own our general account assets, and, subject to applicable law, have sole investment
discretion over them. The assets are subject to our general business operation liabilities and claims of our creditors and may lose value.
We have not registered our general account as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Our general account assets fund guarantees
provided in the Contracts, including obligations associated with the death benefit. Contract Value that you apply to Annuity Payments
becomes part of our general account.
Our
Unregistered Separate Account
We hold the assets you allocate to
the Index Options in Separate Account IANA, which we established under Minnesota insurance law for the purpose of supporting our obligations
to pay Performance Credits. We invest the assets in Separate Account IANA in hedging instruments, including derivative hedging instruments
such as put and call options, as well as cash and fixed income securities. Like our general account, the assets in Separate Account IANA
are subject to our general business operation liabilities and the claims of our creditors. An Owner who allocates Contract Value to an
Index Option does not have any interest in or claim on the assets in Separate Account IANA. In addition, neither the Owner nor these Index
Options participate in any way in the performance of assets held in Separate Account IANA.
Status
Pursuant to Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Allianz Life hereby relies on the
exemption provided by Rule 12h-7 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 from the requirement to file reports pursuant to Section 15(d)
of that Act.
1. The
Contract
An annuity is a contract between
you as the Owner, and an insurance company (in this case Allianz Life), where you make payments to us and we invest that money in the
Index Options you select. The Variable Option holds the money you invest before it is transferred to the Index Options. Depending on market
conditions and the returns of your selected Index Options, your Contract may gain or lose value. When you are ready to take money out,
we make payments to you according to your instructions and any restrictions associated with the payment option you select that is described
in this prospectus. Other than to add benefits that are beneficial to you, we do not make any changes to your Contract without your permission
except as may be required by law.
The Contract has an Accumulation
Phase and an Annuity Phase.
The Accumulation
Phase is the first phase of your Contract, and it begins
on the Issue Date. During the Accumulation Phase, we invest your money in the Index Options you select and the Variable Option on a tax-deferred
basis. Tax deferral may not be available for certain non-individually owned contracts. Tax deferral means you are not taxed on any earnings
or appreciation on the assets in your Contract until you take money out of your Contract. For more information, see section 12, Taxes.
During the Accumulation Phase, you
can take withdrawals (subject to any withdrawal charge). You can also make additional Purchase Payments subject to the restrictions set
out in section 3, Purchasing the Contract – Purchase Requirements. The Contract also offers at issue the optional Maximum Anniversary
Value Death Benefit for an additional rider fee (see section 11) if all Owners and the Annuitant are age 75 or younger on the Issue Date.
The Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit can only be added to a Contract at issue. The Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit potentially
provides a death benefit greater than the Traditional Death Benefit based on the Maximum Anniversary Value (highest Contract Value on
any Index Anniversary before age 91, increased by the dollar amount of subsequent Purchase Payments, and reduced proportionately for subsequent
withdrawals you take including any withdrawal charge).
When
the Accumulation Phase Ends
The Accumulation Phase ends upon
the earliest of the following:
The
Business Day we process your request for a full withdrawal.
●
The
Business Day before the Annuity Date.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Upon
the death of any Owner (or the Annuitant if the Owner is a non-individual), the Business Day we first receive Valid Claim from any one
Beneficiary, unless the surviving spouse/Beneficiary continues the Contract. If there are multiple Beneficiaries, the remaining Contract
Value continues to fluctuate with the performance of the Investment Options until the complete distribution of the death benefit. A Valid
Claim is the documents we require to be received in Good
Order at our Service Center before we pay any death claim.
If you request Annuity Payments,
the Accumulation Phase of your Contract ends and you enter the Annuity
Phase. During the Annuity Phase, we make regular fixed
periodic Annuity Payments based on a guaranteed period, life, life with a guaranteed period, joint and last survivor, or joint and 2/3
survivor. We send Annuity Payments to the Payee
(the person or entity who receives Annuity Payments during the Annuity Phase). You can choose when Annuity Payments begin, subject to
certain restrictions. We base Annuity Payments on the Contract Value less the final rider fee (if applicable) and the payout rates
for the Annuity Option you select. Your Annuity Payments do not change unless an Annuitant dies. The Annuity Phase ends when we make the
last Annuity Payment under your selected Annuity Option. For more information, see section 9, The Annuity Phase.
all
applicable phases of the Contract (Accumulation Phase and/or Annuity Phase) have ended, and/or
if
we received a Valid Claim, all applicable death benefit payments have been made.
For example, if you take a full withdrawal of
the Cash Value, both the Accumulation Phase and the Contract end even though the Annuity Phase never began and we did not make any death
benefit payments.
2. Ownership,
Annuitant, Determining Life, Beneficiary, and Payee
The Owner designated at Contract
issue has all the rights under the Contract. The Owner may be an individual, or a non-individual (such as a trust or other entity acting
as an agent for a natural person). Qualified Contracts and non-individually owned Contracts can only have one Owner. A Qualified
Contract qualifies for special tax treatment under sections
of the Code.
A Non-Qualified Contract can be owned
by up to two individual Owners (Joint
Owners). Joint Owners must be spouses within the meaning
of federal tax law. We generally require the signature of both Joint Owners on any forms that are submitted to our Service Center.
The Annuitant is the individual on
whose life we base Annuity Payments. Subject to our approval, you designate an Annuitant when you purchase a Contract. For Qualified Contracts,
before the Annuity Date, the Owner must be the Annuitant unless the Contract is owned by a qualified plan or is part of a custodial arrangement.
You can change the Annuitant on an individually owned Non-Qualified Contract at any time before the Annuity Date. You
cannot change the Annuitant if the Owner is a non-individual.
Subject to our approval, you can add a joint Annuitant on the Annuity Date. For Qualified Contracts, the ability to add a joint Annuitant
is subject to any plan requirements associated with the Contract. For individually owned Contracts, if the Annuitant who is not an Owner
dies before the Annuity Date, the sole Owner (or younger Joint Owner) automatically becomes the new Annuitant, but the Owner can subsequently
name another Annuitant.
Designating different
persons as Owner(s) and Annuitant(s) can have important impacts on whether a death benefit is paid, and on who receives it as indicated
below. For more examples, please see the Appendix A to
the Statement of

THE DEATH OF A SOLE OWNER |
Action
if the Contract is in the Accumulation Phase |
Action
if the Contract is in the Annuity Phase |
• If
this is an Inherited IRA Contract, the death benefit options for
the
Beneficiary of the Inherited IRA (successor beneficiary, i.e.
beneficiary
of the original Beneficiary) depend on several
factors.
For specific information regarding these Contracts,
please
see section 12, Taxes – Distributions Upon the Owner’s
Death
(or Annuitant’s Death if the Owner is a Non-Individual).
• For
all other Contracts, we pay a death benefit to the
Beneficiary
unless the Beneficiary is the surviving spouse and
continues
the Contract.
• If
the deceased Owner was a Determining Life and the
surviving
spouse Beneficiary continues the Contract:
– we
increase the Contract Value to equal the Guaranteed
Death
Benefit Value if greater and available, and the
death
benefit ends,
– the
surviving spouse becomes the new Owner,
– the
Accumulation Phase continues, and
– upon
the surviving spouse’s death, his or her
Beneficiary(ies)
receives the Contract Value.
• If
the deceased Owner was not a Determining Life, the
Traditional
Death Benefit or Maximum Anniversary Value Death
Benefit
are not available and the Beneficiary(ies) receives the
Contract
Value. |
• The
Beneficiary becomes the Payee. If we are still required to
make
Annuity Payments under the selected Annuity Option, the
Beneficiary
also becomes the new Owner.
• If
the deceased was not an Annuitant, Annuity Payments to the
Payee
continue. No death benefit is payable.
• If
the deceased was the only surviving Annuitant, Annuity
Payments
end or continue as follows.
– Annuity
Option A or C, payments end when the
guaranteed
period ends.
– Annuity
Option B, F, or G, payments end.
– For
more information on the Annuity Options, please see
section
9.
• If
the deceased was an Annuitant and there is a surviving joint
Annuitant,
Annuity Payments to the Payee continue during the
lifetime
of the surviving joint Annuitant. No death benefit is
payable.
• For
a Qualified Contract, the Annuity Payments generally must
end
no later than ten years after the Owner's death. However,
in
certain situations, payments may need to end earlier. |
The Determining Life (Lives) are
the individuals on whose life we base the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value provided by the Traditional Death Benefit or Maximum Anniversary
Value Death Benefit. We establish the Determining Life (Lives) at Contract issue. For an individually owned Contract, the Determining
Life (Lives) are the Owner(s). For a non-individually owned Contract, the Determining Life is the Annuitant. After the Issue Date, the
Determining Life (Lives) only change if:
you
remove a Joint Owner due to divorce, then we also remove that person as a Determining Life,
you
add or change a Joint Owner, then that person will become a Determining Life if they are the current spouse within the meaning of
federal tax law of an existing Owner, or
you
establish a jointly owned Non-Qualified Contract and change ownership to a Trust, then we remove the prior Owner who is not the Annuitant
as a Determining Life.
The Beneficiary is the person(s)
or entity you designate to receive any death benefit. You can change the Beneficiary or contingent Beneficiary at any time before your
death unless you name an irrevocable Beneficiary. If a Beneficiary dies before you, or you and a Beneficiary die within 120 hours of each
other, that Beneficiary’s interest in this Contract ends unless your Beneficiary designation specifies otherwise. If there are
no surviving primary Beneficiaries, we pay the death benefit to the contingent Beneficiaries who survive you. If there are no surviving
Beneficiaries or if there is no named Beneficiary, we pay the death benefit to your estate or the Owner if the Owner is a non-individual.
● FOR
JOINTLY OWNED CONTRACTS: The sole primary
Beneficiary is the surviving Joint Owner regardless of
any
other named primary Beneficiaries. If both Joint Owners die within 120 hours of each other, we pay the death
benefit
to the named surviving primary Beneficiaries. If there are no named surviving primary Beneficiaries, we pay
the
death benefit to the named surviving contingent Beneficiaries, or equally to the estate of the Joint Owners if there
are
no named surviving contingent Beneficiaries. |
● NAMING
AN ESTATE AS A BENEFICIARY: If an estate
is the Beneficiary, the estate must be the sole primary
Beneficiary,
unless the Spouse is the sole primary Beneficiary. If the Spouse is the sole primary Beneficiary, then an
estate
can be a contingent Beneficiary. |
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Payee
The Payee is the person or entity
who receives Annuity Payments during the Annuity Phase. The Owner receives tax reporting on those payments. Generally, we require the
Payee to be an Owner. However, we may allow you to name a charitable trust, financial institution, qualified plan, or an individual specified
in a court order as a Payee subject to our approval. For Qualified Contracts owned by a qualified plan, the qualified plan must be the
Payee.
Assignments,
Changes of Ownership and Other Transfers of Contract Rights
You can assign your rights under
this Contract to someone else during the Accumulation Phase. An assignment may be absolute or limited, and includes changes of ownership,
collateral assignments, or any other transfer of specific Contract rights. After an assignment, you may need the consent of the assignee
of record to exercise certain Contract rights depending on the type of assignment and the rights assigned.
The Contract cannot be assigned without
our consent. You must submit your request to assign the Contract in writing to our Service Center. We will not consent if the assignment
would violate or result in noncompliance with any applicable state or federal law or regulation.
We record the assignment as
of the date you signed the request, unless you specify otherwise. We are not responsible for the validity or effect of the assignment.
We are not liable for any actions we take or payments we make before we receive your request in Good Order and record it. Assigning the
Contract does not change, revoke or replace the originally named Annuitant or Beneficiary; if you also want to change the Annuitant or
Beneficiary, you must make a separate request.
● An
assignment may be a taxable event. In
addition, there are other restrictions on changing the ownership of a
Qualified
Contract and Qualified Contracts generally cannot be assigned absolutely or on a limited basis. You
should
consult
with your tax adviser before assigning this Contract.
|
● An
assignment will only change the Determining Life (Lives) if it involves removing a Joint Owner due to
divorce,
replacing Joint Owners with a Trust, or adding a Joint Owner if that person is a spouse within the
meaning
of federal tax law of the existing Owner. |

restrict additional Purchase Payments. Each Index Year
during the Accumulation Phase, you cannot add more than your initial amount without our prior approval. Your initial amount is the total
of all Purchase Payments received before the first Quarterly Contract Anniversary of the first Contract Year. We allow you to add up to
the initial amount in the remainder of the first Index Year. The minimum additional Purchase Payment we will accept is $50.
We
do not accept additional Purchase Payments on or after the Annuity Date.
If
this is an Inherited IRA or Inherited Roth IRA Contract, the death benefit proceeds of the previous tax-qualified investment were directly
transferred into this Contract, and we do not accept additional Purchase Payments (see section 12, Taxes – Qualified Contracts
– Inherited IRA).
The
maximum total Purchase Payments we accept without our prior approval is $1 million.
We may, at our sole discretion, waive
the minimum Purchase Payment requirements.
Once we receive your initial Purchase
Payment and all necessary information in Good Order at our Service Center, we issue the Contract within two Business Days. If the Issue
Date is the same as the Index Effective Date, we allocate your initial Purchase Payment to the Index Options. If the Issue Date is not
the Index Effective Date, we hold your initial Purchase Payment in the Variable Option before we transfer it to your selected Index Options.
If you do not give us all the information we need, we contact you or your Financial Professional. If for some reason we are unable to
complete this
Index

process within
five Business Days, we either send back your Purchase Payment or get your permission to keep it until we get all the necessary information.
If you make additional Purchase Payments, we add this money to your Contract on the Business Day we receive it in Good Order.
If you submit a Purchase Payment
and/or application to your Financial Professional, we do not begin processing the payment and/or application until we receive it.
We may terminate
your ability to make additional Purchase Payments because we reserve the right to decline any or all Purchase Payments at any time on
a nondiscriminatory basis. This applies to Contracts issued
in all states except as disclosed in Appendix E. If mandated under applicable law, we may be required to reject a Purchase Payment. We
will decline a Purchase Payment we receive on the same Business Day that we receive in Good Order a request for full withdrawal, or Contract
cancellation during the free look period. If
we exercise our right to decline additional Purchase Payments, this may limit your ability to fund your Contract’s guaranteed benefits
such as the Traditional Death Benefit or Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit.

Allocation
of Purchase Payments and Contract Value Transfers
We
do not accept additional Purchase Payments if you have an Inherited IRA, or Inherited Roth IRA Contract. |
The allocation instructions you provide
on your application automatically become your default allocation instructions. We use these allocation instructions for all Purchase Payments
we receive unless you change them. Any change to allocation instructions will replace any existing allocation instructions and will be
used as the basis for transfers between and among the Index Options.
We
only allow Purchase Payments to move into the Index Options on the Index Effective Date and on subsequent Index Anniversaries.
As a result, we hold Purchase Payments in the Variable Option when we receive them on days other than the Index Effective Date or Index
Anniversaries. We then transfer them to the Index Options on the next Index Anniversary according to your allocation instructions. We
apply any Purchase Payments we receive on the Index Effective Date or on an Index Anniversary directly to the Index Options on that day;
these Purchase Payments are not held in the Variable Option.
We
only allow Index Option Value transfers between Index Options on Term End Dates. However, you can transfer between Index Options before
the Term End Date by executing a Performance Lock and an Early Reallocation. For multi-year Term Index Options you can also transfer between
Index Options before the Term End Date by executing a Performance Lock before the last year of the Term and changing your allocation instructions
before the next Index Anniversary. We do not allow assets to move into an established Index Option until the Term End Date. If you request
to transfer into an established Index Option on a date that is not a Term End Date, we will transfer those assets into the same Index
Option with a new Term Start Date.

You should be aware
that, generally, initial Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates could change every seven calendar days. However, these rates are
guaranteed to be available during the period stated on our website at https://www.allianzlife.com/RILAratesnf
and cannot be superseded until that period ends. If you select an Index Effective Date that is within the guaranteed period for the initial
rates that are available for review on the date you signed your application, you will receive the initial rates that were available on
the date you signed your application. However, if you select an Index Effective Date that is after this guaranteed period, you are subject
to the risk that initial Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates may change and be less advantageous to you. Furthermore, if your
Index Effective Date is after the end of the free look period and you cancel your Contract, you will receive the Cash Value. On or before
the Index Effective Date, the Daily Adjustment does not apply.
You may review future rates at least seven
calendar days before their effectiveness at https://www.allianzlife.com/RILAratesnf.
Subject to the limitations related to designating the Index Effective Date, you (or your Financial Professional, if authorized) can change
your Index Effective Date at any time before it occurs to be an earlier or later date by submitting a request. However,
your new Index Effective Date cannot be later than the deferred Index Effective Date listed above. We must receive your request in Good
Order at our Service Center before the end of the Business Day on which you want the Index Effective Date to occur. Once your Index Effective
Date occurs, all Index Options for your Contract will have the same Index Anniversary.
You can change your allocation instructions
at any time without fee or penalty. These changes are effective on the Business Day we receive them in Good Order at our Service Center.
We accept changes to allocation instructions from any Owner unless you instruct otherwise. We may allow you to authorize someone else
to change these allocation instructions on your behalf. However, we must receive allocation instruction changes (which will transfer your
Index Option Values) in Good Order at our Service Center before the end of the Business Day on the Term End Date (or the next Business
Day if the Term End Date is a non-Business Day). Changes
to your allocation instructions will transfer existing Index Option Values on the Term End Date.
We notify you at least 30 days in
advance of each Index Anniversary as a reminder that on the upcoming anniversary you may transfer Index Option Value between Index Options.
In order to make a transfer between Index Options, you must provide us with allocation instruction changes in Good Order. For more information,
see the “Electronic Allocation Instructions” discussion next in this section. On each Term End Date, if we have not received
allocation instruction changes from you, all assets invested continue to be invested in the same Index Options with new Term Start Dates
at the renewal Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates.
We can add new Crediting Methods,
Terms, and Indexes to your Contract in the future, and you can allocate Purchase Payments or transfer Contract Value to them on the Term
Start Date after we make them available to you. Once we add a Crediting Method to your Contract we cannot remove it, or change how it
calculates Performance Credits. If we add a new Index Option to your Contract, we cannot change its Buffer or Floor after it is established.
For a new Index Option, the minimum Buffer is 5% and the minimum Floor is -25%. However, we can change the renewal and Early Reallocation
Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates associated with any Index Option on each Term Start Date subject to the guaranteed minimums.
● In
order to apply Purchase Payments we receive after

Free
Look/Right To Examine Period
If you change your mind about the
Contract, you can cancel it within the free look period stated on the first page of your Contract. In most states, this is ten calendar
days after you receive the Contract. If you cancel your Contract during the free look period, in most states we return your Contract Value
as of the Business Day we receive your cancellation request in Good Order. This may be more or less than your initial Purchase Payment.
In states that require us to return Purchase Payments less withdrawals if you cancel your Contract, we return Contract Value if greater.
IRA Contracts require us to return
Purchase Payments less withdrawals. If you cancel your IRA Contract, we return the greater of Purchase Payments less withdrawals or Contract
Value.
If your cancellation request occurs
after the Index Effective Date, your Contract Value will include the Daily Adjustment, which may be negative for amounts allocated to
the Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy Index Options.
Some states and certain IRA Contracts
require return of Purchase Payments. For these Contracts, we reserve the right to hold your initial Purchase Payment in the Variable Option
until the free look period ends, and then re-allocate your Contract Value, less fees and expenses, according to your allocation instructions.
If we exercise this right, the Contract Value we use to determine your refund amount on a cancellation request will not include the Daily
Adjustment as the Index Effective Date will not yet have occurred. Currently, we only exercise this right on certain Contracts issued
in California as noted in Appendix E. If we hold your initial Purchase Payment in the Variable Option during the free look period and
the requested Index Effective Date would occur during this time, we change your Index Effective Date to the next Business Day after the
free look period that is not the 29th,

cancel
your Contract during this time, we return the greater of Purchase Payments less withdrawals, or Contract Value. We do not assess a withdrawal
charge or deduct any other Contract fees or expenses if you cancel your Contract during the free look period. If you take a withdrawal
that is subject to a withdrawal charge and then cancel your Contract during the free look period, we will refund any previously deducted
withdrawal charge upon cancellation.

4. Index
Options
Overview
of the Index Options
We apply positive, zero, or negative
Performance Credits at the end of a Term to amounts allocated to an Index Option based, in part, on the performance of the applicable
Index. An investment in an Index Option is not an investment in the Index or in any Index fund.
Some Index Options provide complete
protection against negative Index Returns at the end of a Term. Other Index Options provide limited protection against negative Index
Returns at the end of a Term through a Buffer or Floor. Despite the
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Buffer or Floor,
you could lose a significant amount of money if the Index for such other Index Options declines in value. You may also lose a significant
amount of money due to a negative Daily Adjustment if amounts are removed from such other Index Options prior to the end of a Term.
The Contract currently offers Index
Options with different types of Crediting Methods, including the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger, Index Precision Strategy, Index
Dual Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy. We can add new Index Options to your Contract in the future.
We can change certain features of an Index Option from one Term to the next, including the Index and the current limit on Index gains
(subject to minimum guarantees). We cannot change an existing Index Option’s limit on Index losses (including a Buffer or Floor)
or how it calculates Performance Credits. We reserve the right to close any Index Option to new Purchase Payments and transfers, but not
for renewal upon maturity.
The Contract allows you to transfer
between Index Options on Term End Dates. Additionally, you can transfer between Index Options before the Term End Date by executing a
Performance Lock and an Early Reallocation. For multi-year Term Index Options, you can also transfer between Index Options before the
Term End Date by executing a Performance Lock before the last year of the Term and changing your allocation instructions before the next
Index Anniversary. For more information, see section 3, Purchasing the Contract – Allocation of Purchase Payments and Contract
Value Transfers.
Information regarding the features
of each currently offered Index Option, including (i) the Index’s name, (ii) a brief statement describing the assets that the Index
seeks to track (e.g.,
U.S. large-cap equities), (iii) the Term length, (iv) the Index Option’s Crediting Methodology, (v) the current limit on Index
loss, and (vi) the minimum limit on Index gain, is available in Appendix A – Investment Options Available Under the Contract.
Each Index Option offers a certain
level of protection from negative Index Returns, which limits the amount of negative Index Return used in calculating Performance Credits
for an Index Option at the end of a Term.
The
Index Protection Strategy with Trigger Index Option offers complete (or 100%) protection from negative Index Returns. For example, if
at the end of a Term, the Index Return is -25%, we will apply a 0% Performance Credit to your investment (i.e.,
no loss due to the negative Index Return).
Other
Index Options include a feature, either a Buffer or Floor, that provides limited protection from negative Index Returns.
A
Buffer is the maximum amount of negative Index Return that we
absorb before applying a negative Performance Credit. For example, if at the end of a Term, the Index Return is -25% and the Buffer is
10%, we apply a Performance Credit of -15%, meaning your Contract Value allocated to that Index Option will decrease by 15% since the
Term Start Date. This reflects the negative Index Return that exceeds the protection of the 10% Buffer. The Index Precision Strategy,
Index Dual Precision Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy offer Index Options with Buffers.
A
Floor, on the other hand, is the maximum amount of negative Index Return you
absorb as a negative Performance Credit. We absorb any negative Index Return beyond the Floor. For example, if the Index Return is -25%
and the Floor is -10%, we apply a Performance Credit of -10%, meaning your Contract Value allocated to that Index Option will decrease
by 10% since the Term Start Date. This reflects the negative Index Return down to the -10% Floor. The Index Guard Strategy offers Index
Options with a Floor.
We
currently offer Index Options with 10%, 20%, and 30% Buffers, and -10% Floors.
The current limit on Index loss for
an Index Option will not change for the life of that Index Option. However, we reserve the right to add new Index Options, as well as
close Index Options to new Purchase Payments and transfers. As such, the limits on Index loss offered under the Contract may change from
one Term to the next if we add an Index Option or discontinue accepting new allocations into an Index Option. However,
at least one Index Option with a Buffer no lower than 5% or Floor no lower than -25%,
or an Index Option that provides complete protection from Index losses, will always be available for renewal under the Contract.
Prior to selecting an Index Option,
you should evaluate the protection from negative Index Returns offered by an Index Option. See “Comparing Crediting Methods”
later in this section for additional factors that you should consider when comparing Index Options. Also, see “How We Set Limits
on Index Gains and Losses” below for a description of the factors that we consider when setting rates for the Index Options.
For detailed information on how we
calculate Index Option Values and Performance Credits, see “Determining Index Option Values” and “Calculating Performance
Credits” in section 6, Valuing Your Contract later in this prospectus.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Limits
on Index Gains
Each Index Option also has an upside
feature, either a Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or Participation Rate, used in the calculation of positive Performance Credits, if any,
that may be credited to your investment at the end of a Term. We may limit the amount you can earn on an Index Option based on the Trigger Rate,
Cap, or Participation Rate, as applicable.
A
Trigger Rate represents the positive Performance Credit, if any, that may apply on the Term End Date. The Index Precision Strategy, Index
Dual Precision Strategy, and Index Protection Strategy with Trigger offer Index Options with a Trigger Rate.
For
the Index Precision Strategy and Index Protection Strategy with Trigger, the Trigger Rate will apply if the Index Return is positive or
zero. For example, if at the end of a Term, the Index Return is 6% and the Trigger Rate is 3%, we apply a Performance Credit of 3%, meaning
your Contract Value allocated to that Index Option will increase by 3% since the Term Start Date.
For
the Index Dual Precision Strategy, the Trigger Rate will apply if the Index Return is positive, zero, or to a limited extent, negative.
For example, assume a Trigger Rate of 3% and a Buffer of 10%. If at the end of a Term, the Index Return is positive, zero, or negative
but no lower than -10% (i.e.,
not in excess of the Buffer), we apply a positive Performance Credit of 3%, meaning your Contract Value allocated to that Index Option
will increase by 3% since the Term Start Date. However, if the negative Index Return were lower than -10% (i.e.,
in excess of the Buffer), we apply a negative Performance Credit equal to the negative Index Return plus the Buffer.
A
Cap represents the maximum positive Performance Credit, if any, applied on a Term End Date. For example, if at the end of a Term, the
Index Return is 12% and the Cap is 10%, we apply a Performance Credit of 10%, meaning your Contract Value allocated to that Index Option
will increase by 10% since the Term Start Date. The Index Guard Strategy and Index Performance Strategy offer Index Options with a Cap.
Index Performance Strategy multi-year Term Index Options have both a Cap and a Participation Rate (as described below).
A
Participation Rate is the percentage that is multiplied by a positive Index Return in calculating a positive Performance Credit, if any,
subject to any applicable Cap. For example, if at the end of a Term, the Participation Rate is 100%, the Cap is 15%, and the Index Return
is 12% (which is lower than the Cap), we apply a Performance Credit of 12% (i.e.,
100% x 12%). However, if the Index Return were instead 20% (which is higher than the Cap), we would apply the Cap and a Performance Credit
of 15%. Index Performance Strategy multi-year Term Index Options have both a Cap and a Participation Rate.
The Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or
Participation Rate for an Index Option will change from Term to Term, subject to a specified guaranteed minimum that will not change for
the life of that Index Option. Guaranteed minimum Trigger Rates, Caps, and/or Participation Rates vary by Index Option.
The lowest Trigger Rate,
Cap, and Participation Rate that we may establish if we add a new Index Option to the Contract are 0.05%, 0.10%, and 5.00%, respectively.
The current Trigger Rates, Caps,
and Participation Rates being offered for new Terms of the available Index Options can be located at the following publicly accessible
website: https://www.allianzlife.com/RILAratesnf.
The Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates posted on that website address are incorporated by reference into this prospectus.
Prior to selecting an Index Option,
you should evaluate the Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates that we are offering. See “Comparing Crediting Methods”
later in this section for additional factors that you should consider when comparing Index Options. Also, see “How We Set Limits
on Index Gains and Losses” below for a description of the factors that we consider when setting rates for the Index Options.
For detailed information on how we
calculate Index Option Values and Performance Credits, see “Determining Index Option Values” and “Calculating Performance
Credits” in section 6, Valuing Your Contract later in this prospectus.
How
We Set Limits on Index Gains and Losses
We set Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation
Rates in our discretion, subject to applicable guaranteed minimums. The rates applicable to new terms may differ for initial Terms, renewal
Terms, and Early Reallocations. When setting these limits on Index gains, we consider a variety of factors, including, but not limited
to:
level
of downside protection,
our
hedging strategies and investment performance,
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
the
availability of hedging instruments,
the
amount of money available to us through Contract fees and expenses to purchase hedging instruments,
expenses
incurred by the Company,
your
Index Effective Date,
the
level of interest rates,
utilization
of Contract benefits by Owners, and
We also set the limits on Index losses
for new Index Options (e.g.,
Buffers and Floors) in our discretion, but the Buffer or Floor will be no lower than 5% or -25%, respectively. When setting limits on
Index losses, we consider many of the factors listed above, as well as the fact that an Index Option’s limit on Index loss will
not change for the life of the Index Option.
Due to a combination of factors,
including potential changes in interest rates and other market conditions (e.g.
rising inflation), the current economic environment is evolving. The future impact on the rates we declare cannot be predicted with certainty.
The effect of a change in interest rates or other market conditions may not be direct or immediate. There may be a lag in changes to Trigger
Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates. Interest rates could increase. In a rising interest rate environment, increases in initial Trigger
Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates, if any, may be substantially slower than increases in interest rates. However, a rising interest
rate environment may have the opposite effect on renewal rates and cause renewal Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates to decrease.
We manage our obligation to provide
Performance Credits in part by trading call and put options, and other derivatives on the available Indexes. The costs of the call and
put options and other derivatives vary based on market conditions, and we may adjust future renewal and Early Reallocation Trigger Rates,
Caps, and Participation Rates to reflect these cost changes. The primary factor affecting the differences in the initial Trigger Rates,
Caps, and Participation Rates for newly issued Contracts and renewal and Early Reallocation rates for existing Contracts is the difference
in what we can earn from these investments for newly issued Contracts versus what we are earning on the investments that were made for
existing Contracts. In some instances, we may need to reduce initial, renewal, and Early Reallocation Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation
Rates, or we may need to substitute an Index. You bear the risk that we may reduce Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates, which
reduces your opportunity to receive positive Performance Credits.
We currently offer Index Options
with 1-year, 3-year, and 6-year Terms. Not all Term lengths are available for all types of Crediting Methods. Each Crediting Method offers
1-year Terms. The Index Dual Precision Strategy and Index Performance Strategy also offer 3-year and 6-year Terms.
Prior to selecting an Index Option,
you should evaluate the various Term lengths. You should consider which Term lengths may be appropriate for you based on your liquidity
needs, investment time horizon, and financial goals. Investing in Index Options with shorter Terms will provide more opportunities for
Performance Credits and transferring Contract Value; however, assuming the same Index and limit on Index loss, Index Options with shorter
Terms generally tend to have less potential for Index gains. Conversely, investing in Index Options with longer Terms will provide fewer
opportunities for Performance Credits and transferring Contract Value; however, assuming the same Index and limit on Index loss, Index
Options with longer Terms generally tend to have more potential for gain. Some of the other factors to consider include:
How
long you intend to hold the Contract.
The
Daily Adjustment for Index Options with Term lengths of more than 1-year (including multi-year Terms or extended Term lengths resulting
from Early Reallocation) may be more negatively impacted by changes in the expected volatility of Index prices than 1-year Term Index
Options due to the difference in Term length.
The
risk of a negative Daily Adjustment is generally greater for Index Options with a Term length of more than 1 year than for 1-year
Term Index Options due to the Term length.
The
Index Performance Strategy 3-year and 6-year Term Index Options with a Participation Rate above 100% may also have larger fluctuations
in the Daily Adjustment than Index Options either without a Participation Rate, or with a Participation Rate equal to 100%.
For
shorter Term lengths, there is more certainty in both the final Index Values and how Trigger Rates, Caps, Buffers, and Floors determine
Performance Credits. This means there may be less fluctuation in the Daily Adjustment due to changes in Index return for Index Options
with shorter Term lengths.

must remain in an Index Option until the end of its Term to receive a Performance Credit and to avoid a possible negative Daily Adjustment,
potential withdrawal charges, and any applicable tax consequences.
The Daily Adjustment applies to full or partial withdrawals taken from an Index Option before the end of a Term. The Daily Adjustment
also applies if, before the Term End Date, you execute a Performance Lock, you annuitize the Contract, we pay a death benefit, or we deduct
Contract fees and expenses. For more information, see section 7, Expenses and Adjustments – Daily Adjustment.
We will send you a letter at least
30 days before each Index Anniversary. This letter advises you that current Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates are expiring,
and that renewal rates for the next Term Start Date will be available for your review. The Index Anniversary letter also reminds you of
your opportunity to transfer your Index Option Values on the upcoming Term End Date. Renewal rates could be higher or lower than
your current Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates, subject to the guaranteed minimums. On each Term End Date, you have the option
of remaining allocated to your current Index Options at the renewal Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates that we set on the next
Term Start Date, or transferring to another permitted Index Option.
At least seven calendar days before
each Index Anniversary, we publish renewal rates for the next Term Start Date for your review in your account on our website, and on our
public website at https://www.allianzlife.com/RILAratesnf.
If you do not review renewal rate change information when it is published or take no action to transfer to another permitted Index Option,
you will remain allocated to your current Index Options and will automatically become subject to the renewal Trigger Rates, Caps, and
Participation Rates until the next Term End Date.

availability to transfer into new Index Options, see section 3, Purchasing the Contract – Allocation of Purchase Payments and Contract
Value Transfers.
The Contract currently offers Index
Options using the following Indexes. For more information on the Indexes, please see Appendix B – Available Indexes. Please note
that Index Values used to calculate Performance Credits are based on the Index’s closing value (for an Index that is a market
index) or closing share price (for an Index that is an ETF).
The S&P 500®
Index, Russell 2000®
Index, Nasdaq-100®
Index, and EURO STOXX 50®
are all “price return indexes,” not “total return indexes,” and therefore do not reflect dividends paid on
the securities composing the Index. This will reduce the Index Return and may cause the Index to underperform a direct investment in the
securities composing the Index. For the EURO STOXX 50®,
this Index is a euro “price return index” and Index Returns are determined without any exchange rate adjustment.
Because Index performance for the
iShares®
MSCI Emerging Markets ETF is based on the ETF’s closing share price, Index performance is calculated on a “price return”
basis, not a “total return” basis, and therefore does not reflect dividends paid on the securities in which the ETF invests.
In addition, an ETF deducts fees and costs, which reduce Index performance. These factors will reduce the Index Return and may cause the
ETF to underperform a direct investment in the ETF or the securities in which the ETF invests.

Substitutions and Additions
We may substitute a new Index for
an existing Index if:
the
Index is discontinued,
we
are unable to use the Index because, for example, changes to an Index make it impractical or expensive to purchase derivative hedging
instruments to hedge the Index, or we are not licensed to use the Index,
the
method of calculation of the Index Values changes substantially, resulting in significantly different Index Values and performance results.
This could occur, for example, if an Index altered the types of securities tracked, or the weighting of different categories of securities,
or
we
determine in our sole discretion that the substitution is necessary due to unanticipated events outside of our direct control. This might
include other events similar to those listed above, other changes to the Index (such as name or ownership changes) that legally may be
considered a substitution, or a breach by the Index provider of the Index intent or performance expectations.
If we add or substitute an Index,
we first seek any required regulatory approval from each applicable state insurance regulator and then provide you with written notice.
We also provide you with written notice if an Index changes its name. Index substitutions can occur either on a Term Start Date or during
a Term. If we substitute an Index during a Term, we will combine the return of the previously available substituted Index from the Term
Start Date to the substitution date with the return of the new Index from the substitution date to the Term End Date. If we substitute
an Index during a Term:
we
do not
change the Charge Base we use to calculate the rider fee, and
the
Buffers, Floors, Trigger Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates for the substituted Index will apply to the new Index. We do not
change the Buffers, Floors, Trigger Rates, Caps, or Participation Rates that were in effect on the Term Start Date.
Similarly, if we substitute an Index
on a Term Start Date, the applicable Buffer, Floor, and minimum Trigger Rate, Cap, or Participation Rate will not change.
Changes to Trigger Rates, Caps, and
Participation Rates associated with the new Index, if any, may occur at the next regularly scheduled Term Start Date, subject to their
respective minimums.
The selection of a substitution Index
is in our discretion; however, it is anticipated that any substitute Index will be substantially similar to the Index it is replacing
and we will substitute any equity Index with a broad-based equity index. In the event a suitable replacement Index is not available, after
seeking any required regulatory approval, we will provide you written notice and information regarding the remaining available Index Options.
We may also close Index Options to
new Purchase Payments and transfers at any time.
The bar charts shown below provide
each Index’s annual returns for the last 10 calendar years, as well as the Index returns after applying a hypothetical 5% Cap and
a hypothetical 10% Buffer. The charts illustrate the variability of the returns from year to year and show how hypothetical limits on
Index gains and losses may affect these returns. Past performance is not necessarily an indication of future performance.
The performance
below is NOT the performance of any Index Option. Your performance under the Contract will differ, perhaps significantly. The performance
below may reflect a different return calculation, time period, and limit on Index gains and losses than the Index Options, and does not
reflect Contract fees and expenses, including the withdrawal charge and Daily Adjustment, which may reduce performance.

Index is an ETF. Index Values are based on the ETF’s closing share price. Index performance is calculated on a “price return”
basis, not a “total return” basis, and therefore does not reflect the dividends paid on the securities in which the ETF
invests. In addition, an ETF deducts fees and costs, which reduce Index performance. These factors will reduce the Index Return and may
cause the Index to underperform a direct investment in the ETF or the securities in which the ETF invests.
How
the Crediting Methods Work
The Index
Protection Strategy with Trigger provides a Performance
Credit using the “point-to-point with step-up” method of calculation. You receive a Performance Credit equal to the Trigger
Rate if the Index Value on the Term End Date is equal to or greater than the Index Value on the Term Start Date, regardless of the amount
of actual Index Return. If the current Index Value is less than it was on the Term Start Date, the Performance Credit is zero.
The Index
Dual Precision Strategy provides a Performance Credit using
the “point-to-point with step-up” method of calculation.
You
receive a Performance Credit equal to the Trigger Rate if the Index Value on the Term End Date is:
equal
to or greater than the Index Value on the Term Start Date, regardless of the amount of actual Index Return, or
less
than the Index Value on the Term Start Date and the loss is less than or equal to the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer.
We
apply the Trigger Rate for the entire Term length; we do not apply
the Trigger Rate annually on a 3-year or 6-year Term Index Option.
If
the Index Return is negative and extends beyond the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer, the negative Performance Credit is equal to the negative
Index Return plus the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer. You participate in any losses in excess of the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer.

extends
beyond the 10% Buffer, the negative Performance Credit is equal to the negative Index Return plus the 10% Buffer. You participate in any

The Index

“point-to-point with Cap” method of calculation.
If
the Index Return is positive, the Performance Credit is equal to the Index Return up to the Cap.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
If
the Index Value on the Term End Date is equal to the Index Value on the Term Start Date, the Performance Credit is zero.
If
the Index Return is negative, the negative Performance Credit is equal to the negative Index Return down to the -10% Floor. You participate
in any losses down to the -10% Floor. We absorb any negative Index Return beyond the -10% Floor.
The Index
Performance Strategy provides a Performance Credit. The
1-year Term Index Options use the “point-to-point with Cap” method of calculation. The 3-year and 6-year Term Index Options
use the “point-to-point with Cap and enhanced upside” method of calculation.
If
the Index Return is positive, the Performance Credit is equal to:
the
Index Return up to the Cap for a 1-year Term. If the 1-year Term is uncapped, the Performance Credit is equal to the Index Return.
the
Index Return multiplied by the Participation Rate, up to the Cap for a 3-year or 6-year Term. If the 3-year or 6-year Term is
uncapped, the Performance Credit is equal to the Index Return multiplied by the Participation Rate. We apply the Participation Rate
and Cap for the entire Term length; we do not
apply the Participation Rate and Cap annually on a 3-year or 6-year Term.
If
the Index Value on the Term End Date is equal to the Index Value on the Term Start Date, the Performance Credit is zero.
If
the Index Return is negative and the loss:

You participate in any losses in excess of the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer.
● The
Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index Performance
Strategy
allow negative Performance Credits. As a result, you could lose a significant amount of money in the
form
of negative Performance Credits if an Index declines in value. The
maximum potential negative
Performance
Credit is: -90% with a 10% Buffer; -80% with a 20% Buffer; -70% with a 30% Buffer; and -10%
with
the Floor. |
● Because
we calculate Index Returns only on a single date in time, you may experience negative or flat
performance
even though the Index you selected for a given Crediting Method experienced gains through
some,
or most, of the Term. |
● If
an Index Performance
Strategy Index Option is “uncapped” for one Term (i.e., we do not declare a Cap for
that
Term) it does not mean that we will not declare a Cap for it on future Term Start Dates.
On the next Term
Start
Date we can declare a Cap for the next Term, or declare it to be uncapped. |

Variable Option’s Underlying Fund
Information regarding
the AZL Government Money Market Fund, including its (i) investment objective, (ii) investment adviser and subadviser, (iii) current expenses,
and (iv) performance is available in Appendix A – Investment Options Available Under the Contract. The Fund has issued a prospectus
that contains more detailed information about the Fund. You should read the prospectus for the Fund carefully before investing. The Fund’s
prospectus and other information can be found online at https://www.allianzlife.com/variableoptions.
You can also request this information at no cost by calling (800) 624-0197, by sending an email request to contact.us@allianzlife.com,
or by contacting your Financial Professional. We send you the current copy of the Fund’s prospectus when we issue the Contract.
There are potential risks associated
with the Fund and its investment strategies. Depending on market conditions, you can gain or lose value by investing in the Variable Option.
In the future, we may add, eliminate or substitute underlying funds to the extent permitted by the federal securities laws and, when required,
the SEC.
Currently, the Fund is not a publicly
available mutual fund. It is available only through variable annuity contracts or variable life insurance policies issued by life insurance
companies or in some cases, through participation in certain
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
qualified pension
or retirement plans. A material conflict of interest may arise between insurance companies, owners of different types of contracts, and
retirement plans or their participants. The Fund’s Board of Directors monitors for material conflicts, and determines what action,
if any, should be taken to address any conflicts.
The Fund’s name, investment
objectives and policies may be similar to the names, investment objectives and policies of other portfolios managed by the same investment
advisers. Although the names, objectives and policies may be similar, the Fund’s investment results may be higher or lower than
these other portfolios’ results. The investment advisers cannot guarantee, and make no representation, that these similar portfolios’
investment results will be comparable even though the Fund has the same name, investment advisers, objectives, and policies.
The Fund pays 12b-1 fees to the Contracts’
distributor, our affiliate, Allianz Life Financial Services, LLC, for distribution and/or administrative services. In addition, we may
enter into certain arrangements under which we, or Allianz Life Financial Services, LLC, are compensated by the Fund’s advisers,
distributors and/or affiliates for administrative services and benefits we provide to the Fund. The compensation amount usually is based
on the aggregate assets in the Fund attributable to contracts we issue or administer. Some advisers may pay us more or less than others.
The maximum service fee we currently receive from any underlying fund or affiliate thereof in any variable annuity contract we offer is
0.25% annually.
Allianz Investment Management LLC,
the Fund’s investment adviser, is affiliated with us through common ownership.
Substitution
and Limitation on Holdings
We may substitute another underlying
fund for the Fund for any reason in our sole discretion. To the extent required by the Investment Company Act of 1940 or other applicable
law, we do not substitute any shares without SEC approval (if required) and providing you notice. A new or substitute underlying fund
may have different fees and expenses. We may limit the amount of additional Purchase Payments that may be held in the Variable Option
if marketing, tax, or investment considerations warrant, or for any reason in our sole discretion. We may also close the Variable Option.
However, we will always offer a variable investment option under the Contract. The Fund may discontinue offering its shares in the future.
Excessive
Trading and Market Timing
Currently,
the Contract does not offer any variable investment options to which you can allocate money. As such, and
given
the design of the Contract, we do not believe there to be a risk of excessive trading and market timing. However, if
we
were to offer multiple variable investment options in the future, they would be subject to the following provisions.
|
We discourage and do not accommodate
frequent transfers. We may restrict or modify your right to make transfers to prevent any use that we consider to be part of a market
timing program.
Frequent transfers, programmed transfers,
transfers into and then out of a variable investment option in a short period of time, and transfers of large amounts at one time (collectively
referred to as “potentially disruptive trading”) may have harmful effects for other Owners, Annuitants and Beneficiaries.
These risks and harmful effects include the following:
●
Dilution
of the interests of long-term investors in a variable investment option, if market timers or others transfer into a variable investment
option at prices that are below their true value, or transfer out at prices above their true value.
●
An
adverse effect on portfolio management, such as causing an underlying fund to maintain a higher level of cash or causing an underlying
fund to liquidate investments prematurely.
●
Increased
brokerage and administrative expenses for an underlying fund.
We attempt to protect our Owners
against potentially disruptive trading through our Excessive Trading and Market Timing policies and procedures. Under these policies and
procedures, we may modify your transfer privileges for some or all of the variable investment options as follows:
●
Limit
transfer frequency (for example, prohibit more than one transfer a week, or more than two a month, etc.).
●
Restrict
the transfer method (for example, requiring all transfers be sent by first-class U.S. mail and rescinding electronic transfer privileges).
●
Require
a minimum time period between each transfer into or out of the same variable investment option. Our current Excessive Trading and Market
Timing policy, which is subject to change without notice, prohibits “round trips” within 14 calendar days. We do not include
transfers into and/or out of the Variable Option when available in your Contract or any automatic transfers made under any of our programs
or Contract features. Round trips are transfers into and back out of the same variable investment option, or transfers out of and back
into the same variable investment option.
●
Refuse
transfer requests made on your behalf by an asset allocation and/or market timing service.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
●
Limit
the dollar amount of any single Purchase Payment or transfer request to a variable investment option.
●
Prohibit
transfers into specific variable investment options.
●
Impose
other limitations or restrictions to the extent permitted by federal securities laws.
We also reserve the right to reject
any specific Purchase Payment allocation or transfer request from any person if in the investment adviser’s, subadviser’s
or our judgment, an underlying fund may be unable to invest effectively in accordance with its investment objectives and policies. This
could occur, for example, where frequent or rapid trading causes the investment adviser to hold an excess of uninvested cash to meet redemption
requests, or to sell investment positions to fund redemptions, thereby affecting underlying fund returns. Similarly, rapid or frequent
trading may cause an underlying fund to incur excessive transaction fees, which also could affect performance.
We retain some discretion in determining
what actions constitute potentially disruptive trading and in determining when and how to impose trading restrictions. Currently, we attempt
to deter
disruptive trading as follows. If a transfer(s) is/are identified as potentially disruptive trading, we may (but are not required to)
send a warning letter. If the conduct continues and we determine it constitutes disruptive trading, we also impose transfer restrictions.
Transfer restrictions may include refusing electronic transfers and requiring all transfers be sent by first-class U.S. mail. If the disruptive
trading affects only a single variable investment option, we may prohibit transfers into or Purchase Payment allocations to that variable
investment option. We do not enter into agreements permitting market timing and would not permit activities determined to be disruptive
trading to continue. We also reserve the right to impose transfer restrictions if we determine, in our sole discretion, that transfers
disadvantage other Owners. We notify you in writing if we impose transfer restrictions on you.
We adopted these policies and procedures
as a preventative measure to protect all Owners from the potential effects of disruptive trading, while also abiding by your legitimate
interest in diversifying your investment and making periodic asset re-allocations based on your personal situation or overall market conditions.
We attempt to protect your interests in making legitimate transfers by providing reasonable and convenient transfer methods that do not
harm other Owners.
We may make exceptions when imposing
transfer restrictions if we determine a transfer is appropriate, although it may technically violate our policies and procedures discussed
here. In determining if a transfer is appropriate, we may, but are not required to, take into consideration its relative size, whether
it was purely a defensive transfer into the Variable Option, and whether it involved an error or similar event. We may also reinstate
electronic transfer privileges after we revoke them, but we do not reinstate these privileges if we believe they might be used for future
disruptive trading.
We cannot guarantee the following:
●
Our
monitoring will be 100% successful in detecting all potentially disruptive trading activity.
●
Revoking
electronic transfer privileges will successfully deter all potentially disruptive trading.
In addition, some of the underlying
funds are available to other insurance companies and we do not know if they adopted policies and procedures to detect and deter potentially
disruptive trading, or what their policies and procedures might be. Because we may not be completely successful at detecting and preventing
market timing activities, and other insurance companies that offer the underlying funds may not have adopted adequate market timing procedures,
there is some risk that market timing activity may occur and negatively affect other Owners.
We may, without prior notice to any
party, take whatever action we deem appropriate to comply with any state or federal regulatory requirement. In addition, purchase orders
for an underlying fund’s shares are subject to acceptance by that underlying fund’s manager. We reserve the right to reject,
without prior notice, any variable investment option transfer request or Purchase Payment if the purchase order is rejected by the investment
manager. We have entered into agreements required under SEC Rule 22c-2 (Rule 22c-2 agreements) whereby, upon request by an underlying
fund or its designee, we must provide information about you and your trading activities to the underlying fund or its designee. Under
the terms of the Rule 22c-2 agreements, we are required to: (1) provide details concerning every purchase, redemption, transfer, or exchange
of variable investment options during a specified period; and (2) restrict your trading activity if the party receiving the information
so requests. Under certain Rule 22c-2 agreements, if we fail to comply with a request to restrict trading activity, the underlying fund
or its designee may refuse to accept buy orders from us until we comply.
Underlying funds may add or change
policies designed to restrict market timing activities. For example, underlying funds may impose restrictions on transfers between underlying
funds in an affiliated group if the investment adviser to one or more of the underlying funds determines that the person requesting the
transfer has engaged, or is engaging in, market timing or other abusive trading activities. In addition, an underlying fund may impose
a short-term trading fee on purchases and sales within a specified period. You should review the underlying funds’ prospectuses
regarding any applicable

transfer restrictions
and the imposition of any fee to discourage short-term trading. The imposition of these restrictions would occur as a result of underlying
fund restrictions and actions taken by the underlying funds’ managers.
This
Contract is not designed for professional market timing organizations, or other persons using programmed, large, or
frequent
transfers, and we may restrict excessive or inappropriate transfer activity. |
The retention of some level of discretion
by us may result in disparate treatment among persons engaging in potentially disruptive trading, and it is possible that some persons
could experience adverse consequences if others are able to engage in potentially disruptive trading practices that have negative effects.
We legally own the Fund shares held
in the Separate Account. However, when the Fund holds a shareholder vote that affects your investment, we ask you to give us voting instructions.
We then vote all of our shares, including any we own on our behalf, in proportion to those instructions. Because most Owners do not give
us instructions and we vote shares proportionally, a small number of Owners may determine a vote’s outcome. If we determine we
no longer need to get your voting instructions, we will decide how to vote the shares. Only Owners have voting privileges. Annuitants,
Beneficiaries, Payees and other persons have no voting privileges unless they are also Owners. We determine your voting interest based
on the dollar value of the Fund shares attributable to your Contract. We calculate this based on the number and value of accumulation
units for your Contract on the record date. We count fractional units. You will receive proxy materials and a voting instruction form.

We apply transfers of Contract Value
and Purchase Payments to the Index Options on the Index Effective Date and Index Anniversaries. We apply Performance Credits to the Index
Options on the Term End Dates. Contract expenses are deducted at different times during the Index Year as stated in section 7, Expenses
and Adjustments. The Daily Adjustment applies on any Business Day other than the Term Start Date or the Term End Date.
Performance Credits
are subject to the applicable Buffer, Floor, Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or Participation Rate.
Positive Performance Credits are not guaranteed. Performance Credits can be negative after application of the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer for

treat a partial withdrawal that reduces the Contract Value below this minimum as a full withdrawal.
*
Does
not apply to RMD payments under our minimum distribution program.
Determining
Variable Account Value
The Separate Account holds Purchase
Payments held in the Variable Option before we transfer them to the Index Options. The Variable Option is a subaccount of the
Separate Account and is the only variable investment option under the Contract. The Variable Option invests exclusively in the shares
of the AZL Government Money Market Fund. Contract Value held in the Variable Option will vary based on the investment experience
of the AZL Government Money Market Fund. As a result, there is a risk of loss of the entire amount invested in the Variable Option.
We convert amounts allocated to the
Variable Option into subaccount accumulation units. The daily value of a unit in the Variable Option (accumulation unit value) is based,
in part, on the daily net asset value of the Fund. The Fund’s net asset value reflects the performance of the Fund’s portfolio
and the deduction of the Fund’s operating expenses. The accumulation unit value also reflects the deduction of certain charges
under the Contract, as described below. The accumulation unit value for the Variable Option is typically determined at the end of
each Business Day. Purchase Payments received by us before the end of a Business Day will be priced based on the accumulation unit value
calculated at the end of that Business Day. Any
such Purchase Payments received by us at or after the end of a Business Day will be priced based on the accumulation unit value calculated
at the end of the next Business Day.
We calculate your Variable Account
Value at the end of each Business Day by multiplying the number of accumulation units attributable to your Contract by the accumulation
unit value for that Business Day.
On the Issue Date, the number of
accumulation units attributable to your Contract is equal to the amount allocated to the Variable Option divided by its accumulation unit
value. At the end of each Business Day, the number of subaccount accumulation units:
−
we
hold assets in the Variable Option on an interim basis before transferring them to your selected Index Option(s), or due to a Contract
Value increase associated with the death of a Determining Life; and
−
you
remove assets from the Variable Option by taking a withdrawal, or
−
we
transfer assets held in the Variable Option on an interim basis to your selected Index Option(s) according to allocation instructions,
or we deduct Contract fees and expenses.
We arbitrarily set the initial accumulation
unit value for the Variable Option. At the end of each Business Day, we determine the new accumulation unit value for the Variable Option
by multiplying the prior Business Day’s accumulation unit value by the Fund’s percentage change in price (which is the change
in net asset value) since the prior Business Day. The percentage change in price includes the Fund’s market performance.
●
We
receive at our Service Center an additional Purchase Payment of $3,000 from you before the end of the Business Day.
●
When
the New York Stock Exchange closes on that Business Day, we determine that the accumulation unit value is $13.25 for the Variable Option.
●
We
then divide $3,000 by $13.25 and credit your Contract that night with 226.415094 subaccount accumulation units for the Variable Option.
Determining
Index Option Values
We calculate an Index Option Value
for each Index Option at the end of each Business Day. Generally, the Index Option Value on any Business Day other than the Term Start
Date or the Term End Date is equal to the Index Option Base plus any applicable Daily Adjustment. The Daily Adjustment can be positive,
zero, or negative and is discussed in section 7, Expenses and Adjustments - Daily Adjustment.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
On the first
Term Start Date, both the Index Option Value and the Index Option Base for each of your selected Index Options are initially equal to
the amount of:
●
any
Purchase Payment received that day which you allocated to that Index Option, and
●
any
Contract Value transferred into that Index Option.
At the end of each subsequent Business
Day for each selected Index Option, we first either apply:
●
the
Daily Adjustment if this is not the Term End Date, or
●
a
Performance Credit if this is the Term End Date.
We calculate Performance Credits
as described under “Calculating Performance Credits” in this section and apply them as follows:
●
We
multiply each Index Option Base by its Performance Credit and add this amount to its Index Option Base.
●
Then
we set each Index Option Value equal to its new Index Option Base.
Lastly, we increase and/or decrease
each Index Option Base and Index Option Value for additional Purchase Payments, transfers, partial withdrawals you take, and deductions
we make for Contract fees and expenses.
●
Additional
Purchase Payments received on the Term End Date and allocated to this Index Option, and transfers of Variable Account Value or Index Option
Value into this Index Option, increase these values by the dollar amount allocated or transferred.
●
Transfers
out of this Index Option reduce these values by the dollar amount removed from the Index Option.
●
Partial
withdrawals you take, and deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses reduce these values by the dollar amount withdrawn from the
Index Option.
−
We
deduct partial withdrawals you take, and deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses from the Index Options proportionately based
on the percentage of Contract Value in each Index Option using values determined at the end of the Business Day before we process the
withdrawal or deduct the Contract expense.
−
We
then reduce each Index Option Base by the same percentage that the amount withdrawn reduced its associated Index Option Value. The reduction
to the Index Option Base may be greater than the value withdrawn or otherwise deducted from the Index Option Value.
●
Your
Contract Value is $100,000 and you selected two Index Options. The first Index Option has an Index Option Value of $75,000 and an Index
Option Base of $72,000. The second Index Option has an Index Option Value of $25,000 and an Index Option Base of $22,000. You take a $10,000
partial withdrawal (including any withdrawal charge).
●
This
partial withdrawal reduces your Index Option Value by the percentage of Contract Value in each Index Option (Index Option Value ÷
Contract Value).
−
For
the first Index Option this percentage is 75% ($75,000 ÷ $100,000) and the $10,000 partial withdrawal reduces this value by $7,500
($10,000 x 75%). For the second Index Option this percentage is 25% ($25,000 ÷ $100,000) and the $10,000 partial withdrawal reduces
this value by $2,500 ($10,000 x 25%).
●
We
then reduce each Index Option Base by the same percentage that the amount withdrawn reduced its associated Index Option Value (amount
withdrawn from Index Option Value ÷ Index Option Value).
−
For
the first Index Option this percentage is 10% ($7,500 ÷ $75,000) and the $10,000 partial withdrawal reduces this value by $7,200
($72,000 x 10%). For the second Index Option this percentage is also 10% ($2,500 ÷ $25,000) and the $10,000 partial withdrawal reduces
this value by $2,200 ($22,000 x 10%).
●
Deductions
we make for Contract fees and expenses also reduce these values proportionately in the same way as a partial withdrawal.

Calculating
Performance Credits
We base Performance Credits on Index
Values and Index Returns. We measure Index Values on the Term Start Date and Term End Date using the Index’s price at the end of
the Business Day as provided by Bloomberg or another market source if Bloomberg is not available. If the Term Start Date or Term End Date
is a non-Business Day we use the next Business Day’s Index price. If you select the EURO STOXX 50®,
we determine Index Returns without any exchange rate adjustment. Because
we calculate Index Returns only on Term End Dates, the Index Return does not necessarily reflect the highest or lowest Index Values that
occurred during the Term.

Performance
Locks and Early Reallocations
We must receive a Performance Lock
request in Good Order before the end of the current Business Day to lock an Index Option on that day. Otherwise, the Lock Date will occur
on the next Business Day that your request is in Good Order. We do not allow Performance Locks to occur on Term End Dates. For requests
submitted in writing, we do not consider the request to be received until it arrives at our Service Center.
You (or your Financial Professional,
if authorized) can request a Performance Lock based on targets you set. You can set upper and/or lower targets for each Index Option each
Term. Setting a target
close to the current Index Option Value return (or close to the Daily Adjustment once Contract Value is reduced to zero) may cause a Performance
Lock to occur very quickly. You can change or cancel targets
at any time before we execute a Performance Lock. Each Index Option’s targets automatically expire on the earlier of the Lock Date,
or the last Business Day before the Term End Date.
By setting targets you
are authorizing us to automatically execute a Performance Lock at the end of the Business Day on the Lock Date upon which the target is
reached.
A Performance Lock can be executed
once each Term for each Index Option. We will not execute a Performance Lock on the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger Index Options
if the Daily Adjustment on the applicable date is zero. A Performance Lock applies to the total Index Option Value in an Index Option,
and not just a portion of that Index Option Value. We use the Daily Adjustment calculated at the end of the current Business Day on the
Lock Date to determine your locked Index Option Value. This “locked” Index Option Value may be more or less than the “unlocked”
Index Option Value that is available for your review on the Lock Date because the unlocked Index Option Value was determined at the end
of the prior
Business Day. After the Lock Date, the Index Option Value stays in the locked Index Option for the remainder of the Index Year unless
you execute an Early Reallocation (if available to you). If you decide to execute an Early Reallocation, you can execute a Performance
Lock and then, at the earliest, execute an Early Reallocation on the same Business Day. When executing both the Performance Lock and Early
Reallocation on the same Business Day, your Lock Date is also the Term Start Date for the new Index Option. Daily Adjustments do not apply
to a locked Index Option for the remainder of the Term and the locked Index Option Value will not receive a Performance Credit on the
Term End Date. For example, assume you selected one Index Option and your Index Option Value available for review in your account today
is $20,326. If before the end of the Business Day you request a Performance Lock, today is your Lock Date. If your Index Option Value
at the end of the Business Day is $20,250, you will lock in this $20,250 and it will not change until the next Index Anniversary if you
do not execute an Early Reallocation. However, if you take a partial withdrawal or when we deduct a Contract fee or expense, we deduct
these amounts proportionately from the Index Option Values, which will decrease any locked Index Option Value. On the next Index Anniversary
that occurs on or immediately after the Lock Date, all locked Index Options will be unlocked, we will transfer the locked Index Option
Value according to your
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
instructions,
and Daily Adjustments will again apply for the new Term. If you do not provide us with transfer instructions, the Index Option Value will
remain in the same Index Option with a new Term Start Date subject to the renewal Trigger Rate, Cap, and Participation Rate for the new
Term.
A Performance Lock can help eliminate
doubt about future Index performance and possibly limit the impact of a negative Performance Credit you would otherwise receive on
an Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, or Index Performance Strategy Index Option. Because
we transfer assets out of a locked Index Option on the Index Anniversary that occurs on or immediately after the Lock Date, executing
a Performance Lock can also allow you to transfer assets out of a 3-year or 6-year Term Index Option before the Term End Date if you execute
the lock on or before the second Index Anniversary of a 3-year Term, or on or before the fifth Index Anniversary of a 6-year Term. If
the Index Anniversary occurs on a non-Business Day, the Performance Lock must be executed before the end of the prior Business
Day in order to transfer assets out of a 3-year or 6-year Term Index Option before the Term End Date. Executing an Early Reallocation
on a locked Index Option can also allow you to transfer assets out of an Index Option before the Term End Date. The disadvantage of executing
a Performance Lock is that the Performance Credit you otherwise would have received by not executing a Performance Lock could have been
greater than the locked Daily Adjustment and you will not participate in that difference. In addition, if you execute a Performance Lock on
an Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, or Index Performance Strategy Index Option, you
may receive less than the full protection of the Buffer or Floor that you would have received if you waited for us to apply the Performance
Credit on the Term End Date.
You can also transfer assets out
of a locked Index Option by requesting an Early Reallocation. Executing an Early Reallocation will result in the remainder of the Index
Year, from the date you execute the Early Reallocation, being added to the Term length. For example, assume you are allocated to a 1-year
Term Index Option and eight months into the Term you execute a Performance Lock. If at the end of the Term’s tenth month you execute
an Early Reallocation and choose a new 1-Year Term Index Option, we add the remaining two months of the Index Year to the new 1-year Term
Index Option, making the new Term length 14
months.
Please note that executing an Early
Reallocation will not change your allocation instructions. If you want to change your allocation instructions when you request an Early
Reallocation, you must submit separate requests for both changes.
Early Reallocation
Restrictions
●
We
do not accept Early Reallocation requests within 14 calendar days before an Index Anniversary.
●
You
are limited to twelve Early Reallocation requests each Index Year, but each request can involve multiple locked Index Options.
After you exercise a Performance
Lock, the Index Option Value stays in the locked Index Option for the remainder of the Index Year unless you execute an Early Reallocation
(if available to you) from this locked Index Option. However, after executing a Performance Lock, you can execute an Early Reallocation
as early as the same Business Day. When executing both the Performance Lock and the Early Reallocation on the same Business Day, your
Lock Date is also the Term Start Date for the new Index Option.
After you reach the Early Reallocation
request limit in an Index Year, any locked Index Options will remain locked until the next Index Anniversary. These limitations mean you
may not be able to take advantage of any increases to Early Reallocation rates, or any advantageous changes to Index values.
For example, assume your Early Reallocation
limit is twelve, your Index Anniversary occurs on January 1st,
and by June 15th
you executed ten separate Performance Locks and Early Reallocations, and have five Index Options currently locked. You could submit an
Early Reallocation request on July 17th
for one Index Option, and a second request on August 14th
for two more Index Options. However, after August 14th
we will not accept any additional Early Reallocation requests for the remainder of the Index Year, so the remaining two locked Index Options
will stay locked until the next Index Anniversary. Although you are unable to execute an Early Reallocation for the remainder of the Index
Year because you executed twelve Early Reallocations in that Index Year, you can continue to execute Performance Locks on any unlocked
Index Options.
Example
– Early Reallocation Transfers Out of a Locked Index Option
●
Assume
your current allocation is 100% to a 1-year Term Index Option with a Term Start Date of August 1, 2024, and Term End Date of August 1,
2025.
●
If
you do not request a Performance Lock or Early Reallocation, and make no change to your allocation instructions, you will begin a new
Term in this Index Option on August 1, 2025, at the renewal rate available at that time.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
●
Assume
in the second Term you execute a Performance Lock on September 1, 2025, and an Early Reallocation to the same Index Option on October
31, 2025, at the Early Reallocation rate available at that time. Your new Term Start Date is the date we execute the Early Reallocation
(October 31, 2025), and the Term End Date is August 1, 2027. The new Term length is 21 months and 1 day.
−
Note
that with an Early Reallocation, your Term Start Date can occur on the 29th,
30th,
or 31st
of the month, unlike Index Effective Dates which cannot occur on those days.
We
will not provide advice or notify you regarding whether you should execute a Performance Lock or Early
Reallocation
or the optimal time for doing so. We will not warn you if you execute a Performance Lock or Early
Reallocation
at a sub-optimal time. We are not responsible for any losses related to your decision whether or not to
execute
a Performance Lock or Early Reallocation. |
7. Expenses
and Adjustments
Contract fees and expenses reduce
your investment return and are described here in detail. We set the Contract fees and expenses on the Issue Date and they cannot change.
Optional
Benefit Additional Rider Fee
Maximum Anniversary
Value Death Benefit
If you have the Maximum Anniversary
Value Death Benefit, we deduct an additional 0.20% rider fee from your Contract Value. The rider fee is an annualized rate that we calculate
and accrue daily as a percentage of the Charge Base and deduct quarterly during the Accumulation Phase while your benefit is in effect
as follows.
|
|
Non-Quarterly
Contract Anniversaries |
Quarterly
Contract Anniversaries* |
• The
Charge Base is
equal
to your initial
Purchase
Payment.
• We
begin calculating
and
accruing the
daily
rider fee, on
the
day after the
Issue
Date. |
• First
we calculate and accrue the daily rider fee,
using
the Charge Base. If this is a non-Business
Day
we use the Charge Base from the end of the
prior
Business Day.
• Then
if this is a Business Day we
increase/decrease
the Charge Base as follows.
– If
we receive an additional Purchase
Payment,
we increase the Charge Base by
the
dollar amount we receive.
– If
you take a partial withdrawal, or we deduct
Contract
fees and expenses other than the
withdrawal
charge, we decrease the Charge
Base
by the percentage of Contract Value
withdrawn
(including any withdrawal charge).
All
withdrawals you take reduce the Charge
Base,
even Penalty-Free Withdrawals. |
• First
we process all daily transactions and
determine
your Contract Value. Daily
transactions
include any gains/losses due to AZL
Government
Money Market Fund performance or
application
of any Daily Adjustment (or
Performance
Credit if this is also the Term End
Date),
any additional Purchase Payment, any
partial
withdrawals you take, and deductions we
make
for other Contract fees and expenses
(including
deduction of the accrued daily
rider
fee for the prior quarter). All partial
withdrawals
you take reduce the Charge Base,
even
Penalty-Free Withdrawals.
– We
deduct the accrued rider fee for the prior
quarter
on a dollar for dollar basis from the
Contract
Value, and proportionately from each
Investment
Option.
• Then
we set the Charge Base equal to this
Contract
Value and we calculate and accrue the
next
quarter’s daily rider fee using the
newly set
Charge
Base on the next day.
* Or
the next Business Day if the Quarterly Contract
Anniversary
is a non-Business Day. |
Example:
Contract Value is $125,000; Charge
Base
is $127,000; a $10,000 partial
withdrawal
(including any withdrawal charge)
would
decrease the Charge Base by $10,160.
[($10,000
÷ $125,000) x $127,000]
Any
increase/decrease to the Charge Base
will
increase/decrease the daily rider fee we
calculate
and accrue on the next
day. |
Examples
of how we calculate the rider fee are included in Appendix D. |
We no longer assess the 0.20% additional
rider fee once we receive either the first Valid Claim from any one Beneficiary, or due proof of a Determining Life’s death if
you and the Determining Life are different individuals and the Determining Life predeceases you. We deduct the final accrued additional
rider fee before calculating the death benefit. If you take a
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
full withdrawal
or annuitize the Contract, we deduct the final accrued rider fee before processing the withdrawal or calculating Annuity Payments. The
additional rider fee compensates us for the risks we assume under the Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit.
● When
calculating the Maximum Anniversary Value, we deduct all Contract fees and expenses on the Index
Anniversary
(including the accrued rider fee if this is also a Quarterly Contract Anniversary) before we capture any
annual
investment gains. However, we do not treat the deduction of the accrued rider fee as a withdrawal when
calculating
the Maximum Anniversary Value (see section 11). |
● If
on a Quarterly Contract Anniversary (or the next Business Day if the Quarterly Contract Anniversary is a
non-Business
Day) the Contract Value is less than the accrued rider fee, we deduct your total remaining Contract
Value
to cover the accrued rider fee and reduce your Contract Value to zero. |
Contract
Maintenance Charge (Administrative Expenses)
Your annual contract maintenance
charge is $50. This charge is for Contract administration and maintenance expenses. We waive this charge as follows:
●
During
the Accumulation Phase, if the Contract Value is at least $100,000 on the Contract Anniversary.
●
During
the Accumulation Phase, if you take a full withdrawal of the Cash Value and the Contract Value is at least $100,000 at the end of the
last Business Day before the withdrawal.
●
During
the Annuity Phase if the Contract Value on the last Business Day before the Annuity Date is at least $100,000.
●
When
paying death benefits.
During the Accumulation Phase, we
deduct the contract maintenance charge:
●
on
a dollar for dollar basis from the Contract Value on the Contract Anniversary (or the next Business Day if the Contract Anniversary is
a non-Business Day), and
●
we
deduct it proportionately from each Investment Option.
If you take a full withdrawal from
your Contract (other than on a Contract Anniversary) and do not qualify for the waiver of this charge, we deduct the full contract maintenance
charge from the Cash Value. We do not treat the deduction of the contract maintenance charge as a withdrawal when computing your Guaranteed
Death Benefit Value. During the Annuity Phase, we deduct the contract maintenance charge proportionately from each Annuity Payment (e.g.,
if you request semi-annual Annuity Payments we deduct 50% of the contract maintenance charge from each Annuity Payment).
You can take withdrawals during the
Accumulation Phase. A withdrawal charge applies if any part of a withdrawal comes from a Purchase Payment that is still within the withdrawal
charge period. We assess the withdrawal charge against the Withdrawal Charge Basis, which is equal to total Purchase Payments, less any
Purchase Payments withdrawn (excluding any Penalty-Free Withdrawals), and less any applicable withdrawal charge. We do not reduce the
Withdrawal Charge Basis for any amounts we deduct to pay other Contract fees and expenses. For withdrawals that are subject to a withdrawal
charge, to pay your requested withdrawal amount, we deduct more
than the amount you request and apply a withdrawal charge to the Purchase Payments deducted. Please see #3 in the following example.
We do not assess
a withdrawal charge on Penalty-Free Withdrawals or amounts we deduct to pay Contract fees and expenses, other than the withdrawal charge.
Calculating
a Withdrawal Charge |
|
For
purposes of calculating any withdrawal charge, we withdraw
Purchase
Payments on a “first-in-first-out” (FIFO) basis and we
process
withdrawal requests as follows. |
You
make an initial Purchase Payment of $55,000 and make
another
Purchase Payment in the first month of the second
Contract
Year of $45,000. In the third month of the third
Contract
Year, your Contract Value is $110,000 and you
request
a $70,000 withdrawal. We withdraw money and
compute
the withdrawal charge as follows. |
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Calculating
a Withdrawal Charge |
|
1. First,
we withdraw from Purchase Payments that we have had
for
six or more complete years, which is your Contract’s
withdrawal
charge period. This withdrawal is not subject to a
withdrawal
charge and it reduces the Withdrawal Charge Basis
dollar
for dollar. |
1. Purchase
Payments beyond the withdrawal charge
period.
All payments are still within the withdrawal charge
period,
so this does not apply. |
2. Amounts
available as a Penalty-Free Withdrawal. This includes
partial
withdrawals you take during the Accumulation Phase
under
the free withdrawal privilege or waiver of withdrawal
charge
benefit, and RMD payments you take under our
minimum
distribution program. Penalty-Free Withdrawals are
not
subject to a withdrawal charge, and they do not reduce the
Withdrawal
Charge Basis. |
2. Amounts
available as a Penalty-Free Withdrawal.
You did
not
take any other withdrawals this year, so the entire free
withdrawal
privilege (10% of your total Purchase Payments,
or
$10,000) is available to you without incurring a withdrawal
charge.
|
3. Next,
on a FIFO basis, we withdraw from Purchase Payments
within
your Contract’s withdrawal charge period and assess a
withdrawal
charge. Withdrawing payments on a FIFO basis
may
help reduce the total withdrawal charge because the
charge
declines over time. We determine your total withdrawal
charge
by multiplying each payment by its applicable
withdrawal
charge percentage and then totaling the charges.
These
withdrawals reduce the Withdrawal Charge Basis.
The
withdrawal charge as a percentage of each Purchase
Payment
withdrawn is as follows. |
3. Purchase
Payments within the withdrawal charge period
on
a FIFO basis. The total amount we withdraw
from the
first
Purchase Payment is $55,000, which is subject to a 7%
withdrawal
charge, and you receive $51,150. We determine
this
amount as follows:
(amount
withdrawn) x (1 – withdrawal charge) = the
amount
you receive, or:
$55,000
x 0.93 = $51,150
The
total amount we withdraw from the second Purchase
Payment
is $9,620, which is subject to an 8% withdrawal
charge,
and you receive $8,850. We determine this amount
as
follows:
(amount
withdrawn) x (1 – withdrawal charge) = the
amount
you receive, or:
$9,620
x 0.92 = $8,850 |

earnings. We already withdrew your requested
amount,
so this does not apply.
In
total, we withdrew $74,620 from your Contract, of
which
you received $70,000 and paid a withdrawal
charge
of $4,620. We also reduced the 1st
Purchase
Payment
from $55,000 to $0, and your 2nd
Purchase
Payment
from $45,000 to $35,380 ($45,000 – $9,620).
Please
note that this example may differ from your
actual
results due to rounding. |
Upon a full withdrawal, we first
deduct any final rider fee and contract maintenance charge from your Contract Value before we calculate the withdrawal charge. We
then deduct any applicable withdrawal charge from the total remaining Contract Value and send you the remaining amount. For a partial
withdrawal, we pay you the amount you requested and
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
deduct this amount
and any withdrawal charge from the total Contract Value. We deduct any partial withdrawal (including any withdrawal charge) proportionately
from each Investment Option. If a partial withdrawal occurs on a day that we also deduct the rider fee and/or contract maintenance charge,
we deduct these fees and expenses before we calculate and deduct the partial withdrawal and any withdrawal charge from the Contract
Value.
The withdrawal charge compensates
us for expenses associated with selling the Contract.
Reduction or Elimination
of the Withdrawal Charge
We may reduce or eliminate the withdrawal
charge when the Contract is sold under circumstances that reduce its sales expenses. We will implement this withdrawal charge reduction
or elimination in a nondiscriminatory manner. For example, if a large group of individuals purchases Contracts or if a prospective purchaser
already has a relationship with us. We may choose not to deduct a withdrawal charge under a Contract issued to an officer, director, or
employee of Allianz Life or any of its affiliates. Also, we may reduce or eliminate the withdrawal charge when a Contract is sold by a
Financial Professional appointed with Allianz Life to any members of his or her immediate family and the Financial Professional waives
their commission. We must pre-approve any withdrawal charge reduction or elimination.
● Upon
a full withdrawal, the free withdrawal privilege is not available to you, and we apply a withdrawal charge
against
Purchase Payments that are still within the withdrawal charge period, including amounts previously
withdrawn
under the free withdrawal privilege. On
a full withdrawal, your Withdrawal Charge Basis may be
greater
than your Contract Value because the following reduce your Contract Value, but do not reduce your
Withdrawal
Charge Basis: |
– prior
Penalty-Free Withdrawals, |
– deductions
we make for Contract fees and expenses other than the withdrawal charge, and/or |
|
|
This
also means that upon a full withdrawal you may not receive any money. |
● Withdrawals
are subject to ordinary income taxes, and may also be subject to a 10% additional federal tax for
amounts
withdrawn before age 59 1∕2.
The amount of Contract Value available for withdrawal is also affected
by
the Daily Adjustment
(which
can be negative) unless taken on a Term End Date. If you have Index Options
with
different Term End Dates, there may be no time you can take a withdrawal without application of at least one
Daily
Adjustment. |
● For
tax purposes, and in most instances, withdrawals from Non-Qualified Contracts are considered to come from
earnings
first, not Purchase Payments. |
The
Daily Adjustment is how we calculate Index Option Values on Business Days other than the Term Start Date or Term End Date. Its purpose
is to provide investors an interim Index Option Value upon which withdrawals or other transactions subject to the Daily Adjustment can
occur in between a Term Start Date and Term End Date. The
Variable Option is not subject to the Daily Adjustment. If,
before the Term End Date, you take a full or partial withdrawal, you execute a Performance Lock, you annuitize the Contract, we pay a
death benefit, or when we deduct Contract fees and expenses, we calculate the Index Option Value by applying the Daily Adjustment.
The
Daily Adjustment can affect the amounts available for withdrawal, Performance Locks, annuitization, payment of the death benefit, and
the Contract Value used to determine RMD payments, Charge Base, and contract maintenance charge. The Daily Adjustment
can be positive, zero, or negative. However, the Daily Adjustment for the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger cannot be negative.
We calculate the Daily Adjustment
for a given Business Day before we deduct any Contract fees or expenses or process any partial withdrawal on that Business Day, including
Penalty-Free Withdrawals. The Daily Adjustment does not change the Contract fee or expense deducted, or the withdrawal amount; it only
changes the Index Option Value from which we deduct the Contract fee or expense, or withdrawal. The Index Option Value reflects the Daily
Adjustment on every Business Day other than the Term Start Date or Term End Date. You
can review your Index Option Values, which include the Daily Adjustment, in your account on our website. Please note that the values available
for review are calculated as of the close of the prior
Business Day and may differ from the values you receive.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
The Daily Adjustment
approximates the Index Option Value that will be available on the Term End Date. It is the estimated present value of the future Performance
Credit that we will apply on the Term End Date. The Daily Adjustment primarily takes into account:
any
Index gains during the Term subject to the applicable Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or Participation Rate,
for
the Index Dual Precision Strategy, any Index losses less than or equal to the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer,
either
any Index losses greater than the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer, or Index losses down to the -10% Floor (not applicable to the Index Protection
Strategy with Trigger), and
the
number of days until the Term End Date.
The Daily Adjustment does this by
using the hypothetical value of a Proxy Investment (Proxy
Value) each Business Day, other than the Term Start Date
or Term End Date, based on the formulas described in Appendix C. The Proxy
Investment provides
a current estimated present value of what the Performance Credit will be on the Term End Date taking into account the applicable Buffer,
Floor, Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or Participation Rate. The Daily Adjustment is not the actual Index return on the day of the calculation,
and the estimated present value Performance Credit is not guaranteed. Therefore,
the Daily Adjustment could result in a loss beyond the protection of the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer; or -10% Floor. Following
is the maximum potential loss associated with the Daily Adjustment.

|
|
|
Such
losses will be greater if the amount withdrawn is also subject to a withdrawal charge, or is a deduction of Contract fees and expenses.
A withdrawal taken during the Term
may not receive the full benefit of the Buffer or Floor because the Daily Adjustment takes into account what may potentially happen between
the withdrawal date and the Term End Date. All other factors being equal, even if the current Index return during the Term is greater
than the Trigger Rate or Cap, the Daily Adjustment will usually be lower than the Cap or Trigger Rate. For the Index Protection Strategy
with Trigger and Index Precision Strategy, even if the current Index return during the Term is greater than or equal to zero, the Daily
Adjustment will usually be lower than the Trigger Rate. For the Index Dual Precision Strategy, even if the Index return during the
Term is positive, zero, or negative and within the applicable Buffer, the Daily Adjustment will usually be lower than the Trigger Rate.
This is because there is a possibility that the Index return could decrease before the Term End Date. Similarly, even though a negative
Index return may be within the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer for the Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision Strategy, and
Index Performance Strategy, you still may receive a negative Daily Adjustment because there is a possibility that the Index Return could
decrease before the Term End Date. The Daily
Adjustment for Index Options with a Term length of more than 1 year may be more negatively impacted by changes in the expected volatility
of Index prices than 1-year Term Index Options due to the difference in Term length. Also, the risk of a negative Daily
Adjustment is generally greater for Index Options with a Term length of more than 1 year than for 1-year Term Index Options due to
the Term length. The Index Performance Strategy 3-year and 6-year Term Index Options with a Participation Rate above 100% may also have
larger fluctuations in the Daily Adjustment than Index Options either without a Participation Rate, or with a Participation Rate equal
to 100%. Finally, a negative Index return for the Index Guard Strategy may result in you receiving a Daily Adjustment lower than the -10%
Floor, because the Daily Adjustment reflects the present value of the Floor and you will not receive the full benefit of the -10% Floor
until the Term End Date.
A negative Daily Adjustment may cause you to realize loss of principal and previous earnings.
The Daily Adjustment’s risks
(including the impact on Contract Value used to determine Contract fees and expenses) are discussed in more detail in Principal Risks
of Investing In the Contract – Risk of Negative Returns. The specific details of the Daily Adjustment formula are included in Appendix
C and the SAI. The SAI also includes examples illustrating the Daily Adjustment calculation.

Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Premium
Tax
Premium tax is based on your state
of residence at the time you make each Purchase Payment. In states that assess a premium tax, we do not currently deduct it from the Contract,
although we reserve the right to do so in the future. Premium tax normally ranges from 0% to 3.5% of the Purchase Payment, depending on
the state or governmental entity.
Currently, we do not deduct any Contract
related income tax we incur, although we reserve the right to do so in the future.
Charges deducted from and expenses
paid out of the assets of the Fund are described in the Fund’s prospectus.
These expenses reduce the Fund’s
performance and, therefore, negatively affect your Contract Value and any payments based on Contract Value.
Commissions
Paid to Dealers
We pay sales commissions to
the selling firms and their Financial Professionals. The maximum commission payable to the selling firms for Contract sales is expected
to not exceed 6% of Purchase Payments. Sometimes, we enter into an agreement with a selling firm to pay commissions as a combination of
a certain amount of the commission at the time of sale and a trail commission which, when totaled, could exceed 6% of Purchase Payments.
Financial Professionals and their managers may also be eligible for various benefits such as production incentive bonuses, insurance benefits,
and non-cash compensation items that we may provide jointly with our principal underwriter, Allianz Life Financial Services, LLC. You
should ask your financial adviser about compensation they receive for this Contract. Allianz Life is not an investment adviser, and does
not provide investment advice in connection with sales of the Contract. We are not a fiduciary to you, and do not make recommendations
or assess suitability.
8. Access
to Your Money
Your Contract Value is available
under the following circumstances:
●
by
taking a withdrawal (including withdrawals under the free withdrawal privilege and waiver of withdrawal charge benefit; and, for Qualified
Contracts only, RMD payments under our minimum distribution program);
●
by
taking Annuity Payments; or
●
when
we pay a death benefit.
You can take withdrawals during the
Accumulation Phase. We process withdrawal requests based on values next determined after receipt of the request in Good Order at our Service
Center. Values are normally determined at the end of each Business Day. We process any withdrawal request received at or after the end
of the current Business Day using values determined on the next Business Day.
Any partial withdrawal must be for
at least $100.* The Contract Value after a partial withdrawal (including any withdrawal charge) must be at least $2,000.* Any
partial withdrawal that reduces the Contract Value below this minimum will be treated as a full withdrawal of the Cash Value. A full
withdrawal will cause the Contract and
all of its benefits
to end.
*
Does
not apply to RMD payments under our minimum distribution program.
We deduct any partial withdrawal
(including any withdrawal charge) proportionately from each Investment Option. The Index Option Value from which a partial withdrawal
is deducted during a Term will include any applicable Daily Adjustment.
A partial or full withdrawal is subject
to a withdrawal charge if taken within six years of your last Purchase Payment, and, if taken on a day other than a Term End Date, we
will apply the Daily Adjustment to the Index Option Values (which may be negative for the Index Dual Precision Strategy, Index Precision
Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy) before deducting the withdrawal. A partial withdrawal is not subject to
any Contract fees or expenses other than the withdrawal charge, but on a full withdrawal we do deduct any final rider fee and contract
maintenance charge. Partial withdrawals (including any withdrawal charge) reduce Contract Value and Cash Value dollar for dollar, and
reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value proportionately. The reduction to Contract Value also reduces the following which are based
on Contract Value: the likelihood of receiving increases to the Maximum Anniversary Value if the Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit
is selected, and RMD payments. A full withdrawal of the Cash Value will end the Contract and all its benefits.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
See the Fee Tables
and section 7, Expenses and Adjustments for a discussion of the Contract fees and expenses.
We pay withdrawals promptly, but
in no event later than seven days after receipt of your request in Good Order at our Service Center, unless the suspension of payments
or transfers provision is in effect (see the discussion later in this section).
● Withdrawals
are subject to a withdrawal charge, income taxes, and may also be subject to a 10% additional federal
tax
for amounts withdrawn before age 59 1∕2.
The amount of Contract Value available for withdrawal may also be
affected
by the Daily Adjustment (which
can be negative).
|
● Joint
Owners: We send each Joint Owner a check
for half of the withdrawal amount and we tax report to each Joint
Owner
individually. Tax reporting
to each Joint Owner individually can create a discrepancy in taxation if only
one
Joint Owner is under age 59 1∕2
because that Joint Owner may be subject to the 10% additional federal tax. |
● We
may be required to provide information about you or your Contract to government regulators. We may also be
required
to stop Contract disbursements and thereby refuse any transfer requests, and refuse to pay any withdrawals
(including
a full withdrawal), or death benefits until we receive instructions from the appropriate regulator. If,
pursuant
to SEC rules, the AZL Government Money Market Fund suspends payment of redemption proceeds in
connection
with a fund liquidation, we will delay payment of any transfer, full or partial withdrawal, or death benefit
from
the Variable Option until the Fund is liquidated. |
Free
Withdrawal Privilege
Each Contract Year during the Accumulation
Phase, you can withdraw up to 10% of your total Purchase Payments without incurring a withdrawal charge (the free withdrawal privilege).
Any unused free withdrawal privilege in one Contract Year is not added to the amount available to you in the next Contract Year. Withdrawals
from Purchase Payments that are outside the six-year withdrawal charge period are not subject to a withdrawal charge and do not reduce
your free withdrawal privilege. RMD payments you take under our minimum distribution program and withdrawals under the waiver of withdrawal
charge benefit are not subject to a withdrawal charge, but do reduce your free withdrawal privilege.
Assume your initial Purchase Payment
10 years ago was $100,000, and you made a second $90,000 Purchase Payment 3 years ago. You take an RMD payment of $1,500 and withdraw
$150,000 when the Contract Value is $275,000. The RMD payment is not subject to a withdrawal charge, but reduces the amount available
under the free withdrawal privilege to $17,500 (10% x $190,000 total Purchase Payments = $19,000 - $1,500 RMD payment). After the RMD
payment, $117,500 is available to you without a withdrawal charge: the initial $100,000 Purchase Payment that is beyond the 6-year withdrawal
charge period, and $17,500 remaining free withdrawal privilege. The remaining $32,500 of your requested withdrawal would be subject to
a 7% withdrawal charge.
The
free withdrawal privilege is not available upon a full withdrawal. |
Minimum
Distribution Program and Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) Payments
If you own an IRA or SEP IRA Contract,
you can participate in the minimum distribution program during the Accumulation Phase. If you have an Inherited IRA Contract or Inherited
Roth IRA Contract, we generally require you to participate in the minimum distribution program when you purchase this Contract. Under
this program, we make payments to you designed to meet the applicable minimum distribution requirements imposed by the Code for a Qualified
Contract. RMD payments are not subject to a withdrawal charge, but they reduce the free withdrawal privilege amount during the Contract
Year. We apply the Daily Adjustment to
the Index Option Values if RMD payments are deducted on days other than a Term End Date.
This contract may not be appropriate if you intend to take RMD payments from an Index Option on days other than a Term End Date. You should
consult your tax adviser before purchasing a Qualified Contract subject to RMD payments.
We can make payments to you monthly,
quarterly, semi-annually or annually. However, if your Contract Value is less than $25,000, we only make annual payments. We do not allow
you to aggregate RMD payments between this Contract and other qualified contracts that you own for purposes of this program. We must receive
your program form instructions in Good Order at our Service Center before the end of the Business Day before payments begin.
We reserve the right to discontinue
or modify the minimum distribution program subject to the requirements of law.

should consult a tax adviser before purchasing a Qualified Contract that is subject to RMD payments. |
● The

qualified
plan. |
Waiver
of Withdrawal Charge Benefit
After the first Contract Year, you
can take withdrawals and we waive the withdrawal charge if you:
●
begin
confinement after the first Contract Anniversary in an eligible facility (a hospital, nursing facility, or assisted living facility) for
at least 90 days in a 120-day period, or
●
are
unable to perform at least two of six activities of daily living (ADLs) for at least 90 continuous days. ADLs include bathing, dressing,
toileting, continence, eating, and transferring (moving into or out of a bed, chair, or wheelchair).
We must receive proof of staying
in an eligible facility or ADL eligibility before we waive the withdrawal charge. We require additional proof of qualification for this
benefit annually. For ADL eligibility we may require, at our expense, an examination or tests by a physician of our choice. This waiver
is not available if on the Issue Date you were confined to an eligible facility or were unable to perform all six of the ADLs. We base
this benefit on the Annuitant for non-individually owned Contracts. Withdrawals under this benefit reduce the free withdrawal privilege
amount during the Contract Year. We apply the Daily Adjustment to the Index Options if withdrawals under this benefit are deducted on
days other than the Term End Date.
Suspension
of Payments or Transfers
We may be required to suspend or
postpone transfers or payments for withdrawals for more than seven days after receipt of your request in Good Order at our Service Center,
for any period when:
●
the
New York Stock Exchange is closed (other than customary weekend and holiday closings);
●
trading
on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted;
●
an
emergency (as determined by the SEC) exists as a result of which disposal of Fund shares by the Separate Account, or disposal of securities
owned by the Fund, is not reasonably practicable, or it is not reasonably practical for the Separate Account or the Fund to determine
the value of their net assets; or
●
during
any other period when the SEC, by order, so permits for the protection of Owners.
9. The
Annuity Phase
Annuity Payments offer a guaranteed
income stream with certain tax advantages. They are designed for Owners who do not anticipate needing immediate access to Contract Value
to meet their short-term income needs.
Regular periodic fixed Annuity Payments
are available under this Contract. The Payee receives the Annuity Payments. You receive tax reporting on the payments, regardless of whether
you are the Payee. We may require proof of the Annuitant(s)’ age before we make any life contingent Annuity Payment. If you misstate
the Annuitant(s)’ age or gender, we recalculate the Annuity Payments based on the correct age or gender.
After annuitization, you will not
be able to make partial or full withdrawals of Contract Value. Prior to annuitization, you can take a full withdrawal and receive your
Cash Value. If you take a full withdrawal on any day other than a Term Start Date or Term End Date, we apply the Daily Adjustment to the
Index Option Values before we deduct the final Contract fees and expenses.
Calculating
Your Annuity Payments
We base the level of Annuity Payments
on the following:
●
The
Contract Value less the final rider fee (if applicable) on the Annuity Date.
●
The
age of the Annuitant and any joint Annuitant on the Annuity Date.
●
The
gender of the Annuitant and any joint Annuitant (where permitted).
●
The
Annuity Option you select.
●
Your
Contract’s interest rate (or current rates, if higher) and mortality table.
For any Index Option for which the
Annuity Date is not a Term End Date, Contract Value reflects the Daily Adjustment. We guarantee the dollar amount of Annuity Payments
and this amount remains fixed and does not change during the entire annuity payment option period you selected, except as provided under
Annuity Option G. We deduct the contract
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
maintenance charge
proportionately from each Annuity Payment (e.g., if you request semi-annual Annuity Payments, we deduct 50% of the contract maintenance
charge from each Annuity Payment). However, if your Contract Value on the last Business Day before the Annuity Date is at least $100,000,
we waive the contract maintenance charge during the Annuity Phase.
You can choose one of the Annuity
Options described below. After Annuity Payments begin, you cannot change the Annuity Option, or transfer or withdraw Contract Value.
Option A - Guaranteed
Period. We make Annuity Payments for a guaranteed period
of ten years.
Option B - Life.
We make Annuity Payments during the life of the Annuitant, and the last payment is the one that is due before the Annuitant’s death.
If the Annuitant dies shortly after the Annuity Date, the Payee may receive less than your investment in the Contract.
Option C - Life
with Guaranteed Period. We make Annuity Payments during
the life of the Annuitant. If the Annuitant dies before the end of the guaranteed period, Annuity Payments will continue until the end
of the guaranteed period. The guaranteed period must be either five or ten years.
Option F - Joint
and Survivor. We make Annuity Payments during the lifetimes
of the Annuitant and the joint Annuitant. Upon the death of one Annuitant, Annuity Payments to the Payee continue during the lifetime
of the surviving joint Annuitant. If both Annuitants die shortly after the Annuity Date, the Payee may receive less than your investment
in the Contract.
Option G - Joint
and 2/3 Survivor Annuity. We make Annuity Payments during
the lifetimes of the Annuitant and the joint Annuitant. Upon the death of one Annuitant, Annuity Payments to the Payee continue during
the lifetime of the surviving joint Annuitant at 2/3 of the original amount. If both Annuitants die shortly after the Annuity Date, the
Payee may receive less than your investment in the Contract.
Under Annuity Options B, F and G,
if all Annuitants die on or after the Annuity Date and before we send the first Annuity Payment, we will cancel Annuity Payments and,
upon receipt of a Valid Claim, we will pay the Contract Value determined on the Annuity Date to the surviving individual Owner, or the
Beneficiary(ies) if there is no surviving Owner. If the Owner is a non-individual, we pay the Owner.
After the Annuitant’s death
under Annuity Options A and C, we make Annuity Payments during the remaining guaranteed period in the following order based on who is
still alive: the Payee, any surviving original Owner, the last surviving Owner’s Beneficiaries, or to the last surviving Owner’s
estate if there are no remaining or named Beneficiaries.
We currently offer monthly, quarterly,
semi-annual, or annual Annuity Payments. Annuity Payments are usually lower if you select an Annuity Option that requires us to make more
frequent Annuity Payments or to make payments over a longer period of time. If you choose life contingent Annuity Payments, payout rates
for a younger Annuitant are lower than the payout rates for an older Annuitant and payout rates for life with a guaranteed period are
typically lower than life only payments. Monthly payout rates are lower than annual payout rates, payout rates for a 10-year guaranteed
period are less than payout rates for a 5-year guaranteed period, and payout rates for a 50-year-old Annuitant are less than payout rates
for a 70-year-old Annuitant.
● If
you do not choose an Annuity Option before the Annuity Date, we make Annuity Payments to the Payee
under
Annuity Option C with ten years of guaranteed monthly payments. |
● For
Owners younger than age 59 1∕2,
Annuity Payments may be subject to a 10% additional federal tax. |
● For
a Qualified Contract, the Annuity Payments generally must end no later than ten years after the Owner's
death.
However, in certain situations, payments may need to end earlier. |
When
Annuity Payments Begin
Annuity Payments must begin by the
maximum Annuity Date stated in your Contract, which is the Index Anniversary that occurs on or immediately after the Annuitant reaches
either age 90 or age 100 depending on the requirements of the Financial Professional from which you purchased your Contract. An earlier
Annuity Date or a withdrawal may be required to satisfy minimum required distribution rules under certain Qualified Contracts. You
can make an authorized request for an earlier Annuity Date after the Issue Date, but any such request is subject to applicable law and
our approval. Your Annuity Date must occur on an Index
Anniversary. The earliest available Annuity Date is the second Index Anniversary.

● If
your selected payment frequency results in Annuity Payments that are less than $100, we will update your
payment
frequency to either meet or exceed this amount. |
● If
Annuity Payments under all available frequencies would be less than $100, we reserve the right to require
you
to take a full withdrawal and your Contract will then terminate. We do not assess a withdrawal charge on
this
full withdrawal. |
● If
on the maximum Annuity Date your Contract Value is greater than zero, you must annuitize the Contract.
We
notify you of your available options in writing 60 days in advance. If
on your maximum Annuity Date you have
not
selected an Annuity Option, we make payments under Annuity Option C with ten years of guaranteed monthly
payments.
Upon annuitization you no longer have Contract Value or a death benefit, and you cannot receive any
other
periodic withdrawals or payments other than Annuity Payments. |

11. Death
Benefit
“You” in this section
refers to the Owner, or the Annuitant if the Contract is owned by a non-individual.
The Contract provides the Traditional
Death Benefit, the standard death benefit, for no additional charge. If available, you can instead select the optional Maximum Anniversary
Value Death Benefit at Contract issue for an additional rider fee if all Owners and the Annuitant are age 75 or younger. The Maximum Anniversary
Value Death Benefit can only be added to a Contract at issue. The
Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit cannot be less than the Traditional Death Benefit, but they may be equal. Please discuss this
benefit’s appropriateness with your Financial Professional.
The death benefit is the greater of the Contract Value, or Guaranteed Death Benefit Value. The Guaranteed Death Benefit Value is either
total Purchase Payments reduced proportionately for withdrawals you take (including any withdrawal charge) if you select the Traditional
Death Benefit, or the Maximum Anniversary Value if you select the Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit.
The death benefit
is only available during the Accumulation Phase. If you
or the Determining Life (Lives) die during the Accumulation Phase, we process the death benefit using prices determined after we receive
the required information, which is either a Valid Claim or due proof of death as stated here. (For information on due proof of death see
the Glossary – Valid Claim). If we receive this information at or after the end of the current Business Day, we use the next Business
Day’s prices.
If there are multiple Beneficiaries,
each Beneficiary receives the portion of the death benefit he or she is entitled to when we receive his or her Valid Claim. If a Beneficiary
dies before you or the Designated Life, that Beneficiary’s interest in this Contract ends unless your Beneficiary designation specifies
otherwise. If there are no remaining Beneficiaries, or no named Beneficiaries, we pay the death benefit to your estate, or if the Owner
is a non-individual, to the Owner. Unless you instruct us to pay Beneficiaries a specific percentage of the death benefit, each Beneficiary
receives an equal share.
Each Beneficiary’s portion
of the death benefit remains in the Index Options based on the allocation instructions that were in effect on the date of death until
we receive his or her Valid Claim and we either pay the claim or the Beneficiary provides alternate allocation instructions. If there
is Variable Account Value in the Variable Option on the date of death, it remains there until the next Index Anniversary. If an Index
Anniversary occurs before we receive a Valid Claim, we will transfer that Beneficiary’s portion of the Variable Account Value to
the Index Options based on the allocation instructions that were in effect on the date of death.
From the time we determine the death
benefit until we make a complete distribution, any amount in the Investment Options continues to be subject to investment risk that is
borne by the recipient(s). Once we receive notification of death, we may no longer accept or process transfer requests. After we receive
the first Valid Claim from any Beneficiary, we also will not accept additional Purchase Payments or allow any partial or full withdrawals
unless the withdrawal is required to comply with federal tax law.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
On the first
death of a Determining Life during the Accumulation Phase, if your selected death benefit is in effect, your Beneficiary(ies) will receive
the greater of the Contract Value or Guaranteed Death Benefit Value. The Guaranteed Death Benefit Value is either total Purchase
Payments reduced proportionately for withdrawals you take (including any withdrawal charge) if you select the Traditional Death Benefit,
or the Maximum Anniversary Value if you select the Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit. For example, assume total Purchase Payments
are $90,000, you take no withdrawals, the highest Contract Value on any Index Anniversary (the Maximum Anniversary Value) is $105,000,
and the current Contract Value is $100,000. The death benefit for the Traditional Death Benefit is the $100,000 Contract Value, and for
the Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit it is the $105,000 Maximum Anniversary Value.
If the date we are determining the
death benefit is not the Term End Date, the Contract Value reflects the Daily Adjustment. Withdrawals you take reduce your Guaranteed
Death Benefit Value by the percentage of Contract Value withdrawn (including any withdrawal charge), determined at the end of each Business
Day. All withdrawals
you take reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value and Contract Value, even Penalty-Free Withdrawals. However,
we do not reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value for deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses. Deductions
for Contract fees and expenses will, however, decrease the Contract Value by the dollar amount withdrawn and reduce the likelihood
of receiving increases to the Maximum Anniversary Value. In
addition, because the death benefit is the greater of Contract Value, or the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value, deductions we make for Contract
fees and expenses may reduce the death benefit available to your Beneficiaries.
Examples of the impact of withdrawals
from the Contract on the death benefit are included below in this section.
Maximum
Anniversary Value
The Maximum Anniversary Value is
initially equal to the Purchase Payment received on the Issue Date. At the end of each Business Day, we adjust the Maximum Anniversary
Value as follows.
We
increase it by the dollar amount of any additional Purchase Payments.
We
reduce it by the percentage of any Contract Value you withdraw (including any withdrawal charge).
If the Index Effective Date occurs
after the Issue Date, the Maximum Anniversary Value on the Index Effective Date is calculated in the same way as on an Index Anniversary.
On each Index Anniversary before
the end date (or on the next Business Day if the Index Anniversary is not on a Business Day) the Maximum Anniversary Value is equal to
the greater of:
its
current value after processing any additional Purchase Payments, or withdrawals you take (including any withdrawal charge), or
the
Contract Value determined at the end of the Business Day after we process all daily transactions including Performance Credits, any additional
Purchase Payments, withdrawals you take including any withdrawal charges, and deductions we make for other Contract fees and expenses.
Contract Value reflects the Daily Adjustment for an Index Option for which this anniversary is not a Term End Date. Negative
Index Option performance, withdrawals you take, and deductions we make for Contract fees or expenses decrease the Contract Value
and may reduce the likelihood of receiving increases to the Maximum Anniversary Value.
On and after the end date, we no
longer make this comparison and we no longer capture any annual investment gains in the Maximum Anniversary Value.
The end date occurs on the earliest
of:
the
older Determining Life’s 91st
birthday, or
the
end of the Business Day we receive the first Valid Claim from any one Beneficiary.

Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
●
On
the 1st
Index Anniversary the Contract Value is greater than the Maximum Anniversary Value, so the Maximum Anniversary Value increases to equal
the Contract Value of $110,000.
On
the 2nd
and 3rd
Index Anniversaries the Contract Value is less than the Maximum Anniversary Value, so we neither increase nor decrease the Maximum Anniversary
Value. The Maximum Anniversary Value will stay at $110,000 until the Contract Value on an Index Anniversary is greater than this amount
or you make an additional Purchase Payment (either of which will increase the Maximum Anniversary Value), or you take a withdrawal (which
will decrease the Maximum Anniversary Value).
On
the 4th
Index Anniversary the Contract Value is greater than the Maximum Anniversary Value, so the Maximum Anniversary Value increases to equal
the Contract Value of $120,000.
These calculations show the effects
of taking a withdrawal on the Contract Value and available Guaranteed Death Benefit Value. Withdrawals (including any withdrawal charges)
immediately reduce the Contract Value on a dollar for dollar basis, and reduce the available Guaranteed Death Benefit Value by the percentage
of Contract Value withdrawn.
The following example
assumes the Contract was purchased on or after May 1, 2024. The
example assumes a withdrawal of $5,000 once per year on days that are not Term End Dates starting when the Contract Value is $100,000,
the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value under the Traditional Death Benefit is $90,000, and the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value under the Maximum
Anniversary Value Death Benefit is $105,000. The first withdrawal assumes that there is no amount remaining under the free withdrawal
privilege for that year, so that withdrawal is subject to an 8% withdrawal charge. Subsequent withdrawals are all taken under the free
withdrawal privilege. All fractional numbers in these examples have been rounded up to the next whole number. All Contract Value figures
reflect the Daily Adjustment.

What
Happens Upon Death?
If you are the Determining Life,
or if you and the Determining Life (Lives) are different individuals and die within 120 hours of each other, we determine the Guaranteed
Death Benefit Value at the end of the Business Day we receive a Valid Claim. For multiple Beneficiaries, each surviving Beneficiary receives
the greater of their portion of the:
Guaranteed
Death Benefit Value determined at the end of the Business Day we receive the first Valid Claim from any one Beneficiary, or
Contract
Value determined at the end of the Business Day during which we receive his or her Valid Claim.
In this instance, if the Beneficiary:
is
a surviving spouse and chooses to continue the Contract;
selects
death benefit payment Option B; or
selects
death benefit payment Option C and takes payment over a period not extending beyond the Beneficiary’s life expectancy;
we increase the Contract Value to
equal the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value if greater when we receive a Valid Claim.
If you and the Determining Life (Lives)
are different individuals and do not die within 120 hours of each other, the death benefit is as follows. This
can only occur if you change the Owner after the Issue Date.
If
a Determining Life dies before you, we do not pay a death benefit to the Beneficiary(ies), but we may increase the Contract Value if the
Traditional Death Benefit or Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit are still in effect.
At the end of the Business Day we receive due proof of a Determining Life’s death, we increase the Contract Value to equal the
Guaranteed Death Benefit Value if greater, and
your selected death benefit ends.
Upon
your death, your Beneficiary(ies) receive the Contract Value determined at the end of the Business Day during which we receive each Beneficiary’s
Valid Claim.
Upon the death of a Determining Life,
if we increase the Contract Value to equal the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value, we allocate this increase to the Variable Option. On the
next Index Anniversary we transfer the Variable Account Value to the Index Options according to the allocation instructions.
The Traditional
Death Benefit and Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit end upon the earliest of the following:
The
Business Day before the Annuity Date.
The
Business Day that the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value and Contract Value are both zero.
Upon
the death of a Determining Life, the end of the Business Day we receive a Valid Claim from all Beneficiaries if you and the Determining
Life are the same individual, or if you and the Determining Life (Lives) are different individuals and die within 120 hours of each other.
Upon
the death of a Determining Life, the end of the Business Day we receive due proof of the Determining Life’s death if you and the
Determining Life (Lives) are different individuals and do not die within 120 hours of each other.
Upon
the death of an Owner (or Annuitant if the Owner is a non-individual), the end of the Business Day we receive the first Valid Claim from
any one Beneficiary, if the Owner (or Annuitant) is no longer a Determining Life.
The
Business Day the Contract ends.
We
base the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value on the first death of a Determining Life (or Lives). This means that upon
the
death of an Owner (or Annuitant if the Owner is a non-individual), if
a surviving spouse continues the Contract: |
● the
Guaranteed Death Benefit Value is no longer available, and |
● if
you selected the Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit, we no longer assess its 0.20% rider fee. |
Also,
if you and the Determining Life (Lives) are different individuals and you die first, the Guaranteed Death Benefit
Value
is not available to your Beneficiary(ies). |

The SAI includes tables that are
intended to help you better understand what happens upon the death of any Owner and/or Annuitant under the different phases of the Contract.
Death
Benefit Payment Options During the Accumulation Phase
Each Beneficiary must select one
of the death benefit payment options listed below.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
If a Beneficiary
requests a lump sum payment under Option A, we pay that Beneficiary within seven days of receipt of his or her Valid Claim, unless the
suspension of payments or transfers provision is in effect. Payment of the death benefit may be delayed, pending receipt of any state
forms.
Spousal Continuation:
If the Beneficiary is the deceased Owner’s spouse, he or she can choose to continue the Contract with the portion of the death
benefit the spouse is entitled to in his or her own name. However, spousal continuation is not available if this is an Inherited IRA,
or Inherited Roth IRA (i.e., spousal continuation is not available to a successor beneficiary - the spouse of the original Beneficiary).
For an IRA, Roth IRA, or SEP IRA Contract, spousal continuation can only occur if the surviving spouse is the Contract’s sole primary
Beneficiary. For Qualified Contracts purchased through a qualified plan and non-individually owned Contracts, spousal continuation is
only available to Qualified Contracts through a direct rollover to an IRA. Spouses
must qualify as such under federal law to continue the Contract.
Individuals who have entered into a registered domestic partnership, civil union, or other similar relationship that is not considered
to be a marriage under state law are also not considered to be married under federal law. An election by the spouse to continue the Contract
must be made on the death claim form before we pay the death benefit. If the deceased Owner was a Determining Life and the surviving spouse
Beneficiary continues the Contract, at the end of the Business Day we receive his or her Valid Claim, we increase the Contract Value to
equal the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value if greater and available, and your selected death benefit ends. If the surviving spouse
continues the Contract:
he
or she becomes the new Owner and may exercise all of the Owner’s rights, including naming a new Beneficiary or Beneficiaries;
he
or she is subject to any remaining withdrawal charge period; and
upon
the surviving spouse’s death, their Beneficiary(ies) receive the Contract Value determined at the end of the Business Day during
which we receive a Valid Claim from each Beneficiary.
Death
Benefit Payment Options
The following applies to Non-Qualified
Contracts. Different rules may apply to Qualified Contracts. For more information, please see section 12, Taxes – Distributions
Upon the Owner’s Death (or Annuitant’s Death if the Owner is a Non-Individual).
Option A:
Lump sum payment of the death benefit.
Option B:
Payment of the entire death benefit within five years of the date of any Owner’s death. The Beneficiary can continue to make transfers
between Index Options.
Option C:
If the Beneficiary is an individual, payment of the death benefit as Annuity Payments under Annuity Options A, B, or C. If you take the
death benefit as Annuity Payments, we do not require that the Annuity Date occur on an Index Anniversary. With our written consent other
options may be available for payment over a period not extending beyond the Beneficiary’s life expectancy under which the Beneficiary
can continue to make transfers between Index Options.
Distribution from Non-Qualified Contracts
under Option C must begin within one year of the date of the Owner’s death. Any portion of the death benefit from Non-Qualified
Contracts not applied to Annuity Payments within one year of the date of the Owner’s death must be distributed within five years
of the date of death.
If a Non-Qualified Contract is owned
by a non-individual, then we treat the death of an Annuitant as the death of an Owner for purposes of the Code’s distribution at
death rules, which are set forth in Section 72(s) of the Code.
In all events, notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary in the Contract or this prospectus, a Non-Qualified Contract is interpreted and administered in accordance with
Section 72(s) of the Code.
12. Taxes
This section provides a summary explanation
of the tax ramifications of purchasing a Contract. We
do not provide tax advice. You should contact your tax adviser to discuss this Contract’s effects on your personal tax situation.
Annuity
Contracts in General
Annuity contracts are a means of
setting aside money for future needs – usually retirement. Congress recognized the importance of saving for retirement and provided
special rules in the Code for annuities.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
There are different
rules regarding how you will be taxed, depending upon how you take the money out and whether the annuity is Qualified or Non-Qualified.
Generally, any taxable distribution is subject to income taxes at ordinary income tax rates (instead of capital gains rates).
You can purchase either a Qualified
Contract or a Non-Qualified Contract. If you do not purchase one of the various types of Qualified Contracts described in this section,
the Contract is referred to as a Non-Qualified Contract.
This prospectus does not address
specific state tax laws. You should discuss state taxation with your tax adviser.
If you purchase the Contract as an
IRA, Roth IRA, SEP IRA, Inherited IRA, Inherited Roth IRA, or to fund a qualified retirement plan, the Contract is referred to as
a Qualified Contract. Qualified Contracts are subject to certain restrictions under the Code, including restrictions on the amount of
annual contributions, restrictions on how much you can earn and still be able to contribute to a Qualified Contract, and specialized restrictions
on withdrawals. Qualified Contracts must be purchased from earned income from the relevant year or years, or from a rollover or transfer
from a qualified contract. An IRA to IRA indirect rollover can occur only once in any twelve-month period from all of the IRAs you currently
own. Adverse tax consequences may result if contributions, distributions, and transactions in connection with the Qualified Contract do
not comply with the law.
A Qualified Contract funded by an
annuity does not provide any additional tax deferral. However, the Contract has features and benefits other than tax deferral that may
make it appropriate for an IRA or qualified retirement plan. You should consult your tax adviser regarding these features and benefits
before purchasing a Qualified Contract.
We may issue the following types
of Qualified Contracts to an individual. Purchasers of a Contract for use with IRAs have the right to revoke their purchase within seven
days of the earliest of the establishment of the IRA, or their purchase.
●
IRA
(traditional IRA). Section 408 of the Code permits eligible
individuals to fund IRAs. IRA contributions are limited each year to the lesser of a dollar amount specified in the Code or 100% of the
amount of earned income included in the Owner’s income. Contributions may be tax deductible based on the Owner’s income.
Contributions must be made in cash. The limit on the amount contributed to an IRA does not apply to distributions from certain other types
of IRAs or qualified retirement plans that are transferred or rolled over on a tax-deferred basis into an IRA.
●
Roth
IRA. Section 408A of the Code permits certain eligible
individuals to contribute to a Roth IRA. Contributions to a Roth IRA are limited each year to the lesser of a dollar amount specified
in the Code or 100% of the amount of earned income included in the Owner’s income. Contributions are also limited or prohibited
if the Owner’s income is above certain limits. Contributions must be made in cash. The limit on the amount contributed to a Roth
IRA does not apply to distributions from certain other types of IRAs or qualified retirement plans that are transferred or rolled over
(conversion) into a Roth IRA.
Conversions to a Roth IRA from an
IRA or other eligible qualified retirement plan are permitted regardless of an individual’s income. A conversion to a Roth IRA
results in a taxable event, but not a 10% additional federal tax for early withdrawal if certain qualifications are met (please consult
your tax adviser for more details).
●
SEP
IRA. Employers may establish SEP IRAs under Code Section
408(k) to provide IRA contributions on behalf of their employees. In addition to all of the general rules governing IRAs, such plans are
subject to additional requirements and different contribution limits.
●
Inherited
IRA and Inherited Roth IRA. The Code permits beneficiaries
of investments that were issued under qualified retirement plans or IRAs to directly transfer the death benefit from that investment into
a variable annuity contract (Inherited IRA or Inherited Roth IRA). If you purchase this Contract as a transfer from another carrier, you
will become the Owner of the new Inherited IRA or Inherited Roth IRA Contract. The ownership of this Contract will also reflect the name
of the deceased previous owner. Once an Inherited IRA or Inherited Roth IRA is established, no further Purchase Payments can be made.
We may choose not to allow this Contact to be purchased as an Inherited IRA or Inherited Roth IRA.
We may issue the following type of
Qualified Contract to a qualified retirement plan.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
●
Qualified
Retirement Plans: Pension and Profit-Sharing Plans. A qualified
plan is a retirement or pension plan that meets the requirements for tax qualification under the Code. Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the
Code permit employers, including self-employed individuals, to establish various types of retirement plans for employees. These retirement
plans may permit the purchase of the Contracts to provide benefits under the plan. Contributions to the plan for the benefit of employees
are not included in the gross income of the employee until distributed from the plan. The tax consequences to participants may vary, depending
upon the particular plan design. Participant loans are not allowed under the Contracts purchased in connection with these plans.
If the Contract is purchased for
a qualified plan under Section 401 of the Code, the plan is both the Owner and the Beneficiary. The authorized signatory, plan administrator,
or plan trustee for the plan must make representations to us that the plan is qualified under the Code on the Issue Date and is intended
to continue to be qualified for the entire Accumulation Phase of the Contract, or as long as the qualified plan owns the Contract. The
qualified plan may designate a third party administrator to act on its behalf. All tax reporting is the responsibility of the plan. In
the event the plan administrator instructs us to roll the plan assets into an IRA for the Annuitant under this Contract, we change the
qualification type of the Contract to an IRA and make the Annuitant the Owner. The qualified plan is responsible for any reporting required
for the rollover transactions out of the plan. We are responsible for any reporting required for the Contract as an IRA.
Purchasers of Contracts for use with
pension or profit-sharing plans should obtain competent tax advice as to the tax treatment and suitability of holding an annuity within
a plan. Because of the minimum Purchase Payment requirements, these Contracts may not be appropriate for some retirement plans that
are funded on a periodic basis. Owners, Annuitants and Beneficiaries are cautioned that benefits under a Qualified Contract may be subject
to the terms and conditions of the plan regardless of the terms and conditions of the Contracts issued pursuant to the plan. Some retirement
plans are subject to distribution and other requirements that are not incorporated into our administrative procedures. We are not bound
by the terms and conditions of such plans to the extent such terms conflict with the terms of a Contract, unless we specifically consent
to be bound. Owners, participants, and Beneficiaries are responsible for determining that contributions, distributions and other transactions
with respect to the Contracts comply with applicable law. We may choose not to allow pension or profit-sharing plans to purchase this
Contract.
Summary
of Individuals and Entities That Can Own a Qualified Contract
Currently, we offer the following
types of Qualified Contracts.
|
|
Persons
and Entities that can own the Contract |
|
|
Must
have the same individual as Owner and Annuitant. |
|
|
Must
have the same individual as Owner and Annuitant. |

Inherited
IRA and Inherited Roth IRA |
Must
have the same individual as Owner and Annuitant. The deceased owner of the
previously
held tax-qualified arrangement will also be listed in the titling of the Contract. |
You can instead purchase a Non-Qualified
Contract, which is not qualified pursuant to a specialized provision of the Code. There are no Code restrictions on annual contributions
to a Non-Qualified Contract or how much you can earn and still contribute to a Contract.
Non-Qualified
Contracts Owned by Non-Individuals
When a Non-Qualified Contract is
owned by a non-individual (other than a trust holding the Contract as an agent for an individual), the Contract is not generally treated
as an annuity for tax purposes. This means that the Contract may not receive the benefits of tax deferral and any Contract earnings may
be taxable every year.
When you take money out of a Contract,
we may deduct premium tax that we pay on your Contract. This tax varies from 0% to 3.5%, depending on your state. Currently, we pay this
tax and do not pass it on to you.
Section 72 of the Code governs taxation
of annuities in general. An Owner is generally not taxed on increases in the value of a Contract until a distribution occurs, either in
the form of withdrawals or as Annuity Payments.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
For a full withdrawal
(total redemption), a partial withdrawal, or a death benefit, the recipient is taxed on the portion of the payment that exceeds your investment
in the Contract (often referred to as cost basis). For Non-Qualified Contracts, this cost basis is generally the Purchase Payments, while
for Qualified Contracts there is generally no cost basis, which means the withdrawal is fully taxable, except for qualified distributions
from Roth IRAs and IRAs where you have separately tracked and reported any after-tax contributions that you have made.
For Non-Qualified Contracts, the
taxable portion of a partial withdrawal is the portion of the payment considered to be gain in the Contract (for example, the difference,
if any, between the Contract Value immediately before the withdrawal, unreduced by any withdrawal charges, and the Contract’s cost
basis). The withdrawals are generally taxed as though you were paid taxable earnings first, and then as a non-taxable return of Purchase
Payments.
Distributions from a Roth IRA are
not subject to income tax if the Roth IRA has been held for five years (starting with the year in which the first contribution is made
to any Roth IRA) and the Owner satisfies a triggering event such as attaining age 59 1∕2,
death, disability or a first time homebuyer (subject to a $10,000 lifetime limit).
Distribution before satisfying the
five year period or triggering event requirement may subject the distribution to taxation. Please be aware that each Roth IRA conversion
has its own five year holding period requirement for purposes of determining if the 10% additional federal tax described below applies.
10%
Additional Federal Tax
Withdrawals (whether partial or full)
and Annuity Payments taken before age 59 1∕2
are subject to a 10% additional federal tax unless an exception applies. The exceptions are different for Qualified Contracts and Non-Qualified
Contracts, and are also different for IRAs and qualified plans. If the Contract is jointly owned, we send each Joint Owner a
check for half of the withdrawal amount and we tax report to each Joint Owner individually. Tax
reporting to each Joint Owner individually can create a discrepancy in taxation if only one Joint Owner is under age 59 1∕2
because that Joint Owner may be subject to the 10% additional federal tax.

Exceptions
to the 10% Additional Federal Tax for Qualified Contracts
1)
distributions
made on or after the date you (or the Annuitant as applicable) reach age 59 1∕2;
2)
distributions
following your death or disability (or the Annuitant as applicable) (for this purpose disability is as defined in Section 72(m)(7) of
the Code);
3)
distributions
paid in a series of substantially equal payments made annually (or more frequently) for your life (or life expectancy) or joint lives
of you and your designated Beneficiary;
4)
distributions
made to you after separation from service after reaching age 55 (does not apply to IRAs);

made to you to the extent such distributions do not exceed the amount allowed as a deduction under Code Section 213 for amounts paid during
the tax year for medical care;
6)
distributions
made on account of an IRS levy upon the Qualified Contract;
7)
distributions
from an IRA for the purchase of medical insurance (as described in Section 213(d)(1)(D) of the Code) for you and your spouse and dependents
if you have received unemployment compensation for at least 12 weeks (this exception will no longer apply after you have been re-employed
for at least 60 days);
8)
distributions
from an IRA made to you, to the extent such distributions do not exceed your qualified higher education expenses (as defined in Section
72(t)(7) of the Code) for the tax year;
9)
distributions
from an IRA which are qualified first-time homebuyer distributions (as defined in Section 72(t)(8) of the Code);
10)
distributions
made to an alternate Payee pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order (does not apply to an IRA);
11)
distributions
made to a reservist or national guardsman called to active duty after September 11, 2001, for a period in excess of 179 days (or for an
indefinite period), from IRAs or amounts attributable to elective deferrals under a 401(k) plan made during such active period;
12)
distributions
that are corrective distributions (and associated earnings) of excess contributions, excess aggregate contributions and excess deferrals,
made timely;
13)
distributions
made during the payment period starting on the birth of a child or the finalization of an adoption (up to $5,000);
14)
distributions
that are qualified disaster recovery distributions;
15)
distributions
due to having a terminal illness;
16)
distributions
that are emergency personal expense distributions up to $1,000; and
17)
distributions
that are eligible distributions as a domestic abuse victim, not to exceed the lesser of $10,000 or 50% of the IRA or qualified plan
vested benefit value.
With respect to (13) through (17)
above, a qualified birth or adoption distribution, a qualified disaster recovery distribution, a terminal illness distribution, an emergency
personal expense distribution and an eligible distribution as a domestic abuse victim may each be repaid any time within the 3-year period
from the date the distribution was received in one or more contributions into an IRA or qualified retirement plan (if you are eligible
to make a contribution to the qualified retirement plan). The repayment contribution will be treated as a rollover into the IRA or qualified
retirement plan.
With respect to (3) above, if the
series of substantially equal periodic payments is modified before the later of the Annuitant attaining age 59 1∕2
or the close of the five year period that began on the date the first payment was received, then the tax for the year of the modification
is increased by the 10% additional federal tax, plus interest for the tax years in which the exception was used. A partial withdrawal
taken after a series of substantially equal periodic payments has begun will result in the modification of the series of substantially
equal payments and therefore will result in the imposition of the 10% additional federal tax and interest for the period as described
above. Adding Purchase Payments to a Contract that is making substantially equal periodic payments may also result in a modification of
the payments. You should obtain competent tax advice before you take any partial withdrawals or make additional Purchase Payments.
Exceptions
to the 10% Additional Federal Tax for Non-Qualified Contracts
1)
paid
on or after you reach age 59 1∕2;
3)
paid
if you become totally disabled (as that term is defined in Section 72(m)(7) of the Code);
4)
paid
in a series of substantially equal payments made annually (or more frequently) for your life (or life expectancy) or joint lives of you
and your designated Beneficiary;
5)

Non-Qualified
Annuity Medicare Tax
Distributions from Non-Qualified
Contracts are considered investment income for purposes of the Medicare tax on investment income. Thus, in certain circumstances, a 3.8%
tax may apply to some or all of the taxable portion of distributions (e.g. earnings) to individuals whose income exceeds certain threshold
amounts ($200,000 for filing single, $250,000 for married filing jointly and $125,000 for married filing separately.) This tax does not
apply to distributions from Qualified Contracts. Please consult a tax adviser for more information.
RMDs
From Qualified Contracts
Distributions from a Qualified Contract
must commence no later than the required beginning date. For Roth IRAs, no distributions are required during the Owner’s lifetime.
For IRAs other than Roth IRAs, the
required beginning date is April 1 of the calendar year following the year in which the RMD age is reached. The RMD age is:
●
if
date of birth is on or before June 30, 1949, age 70.5;
●
if
date of birth is on and after July 1, 1949, and before January 1, 1951, age 72;
●
if
date of birth is on and after January 1, 1951, and before January 1, 1960, age 73; and
●
if
date of birth is on and after January 1, 1960, age 75.
Under a
qualified plan, the required beginning date is generally April 1 of the calendar year following the later of the calendar year in which
you reach the age noted for IRAs above or retire.
Generally, RMDs must be made over
a period not exceeding the life or life expectancy of the individual or the joint lives or life expectancies of the individual and his
or her designated Beneficiary. If the RMDs are not made, a 25% excise tax is imposed as to the amount not distributed. If you are attempting
to satisfy these rules through partial withdrawals, the present value of future benefits provided under the Contract may need to be included
in calculating the amount required to be distributed. If you enroll in our minimum distribution program, we make RMD payments to you that
are designed to meet this Contract’s RMD requirements.
Code Section 817(h) and accompanying
Treasury Department Regulations impose diversification standards on the assets underlying variable annuity contracts. The Code provides
that a variable annuity contract cannot be treated as an annuity contract for any period during which its investments are not adequately
diversified as required by the United States Treasury Department. If the Contract no longer qualifies as an annuity contract, you would
be subject to federal income tax each year with respect to Contract earnings accrued. We intend to manage all available Index Options,
and we intend that all available underlying funds be managed by the investment advisers so that they comply with these diversification
standards.
The Treasury Department has indicated
that the diversification regulations do not provide guidance regarding the circumstances in which an Owner’s control of the Separate
Account’s investments may cause the Owner to be treated as the owner of the Separate Account’s assets, which would cause
the Contract to lose its favorable tax treatment. In certain circumstances, variable annuity contract owners have been considered for
federal income tax purposes to be the owners of the separate account’s assets, due to their ability to exercise investment control
over those assets. In this case, the contract owners have been currently taxed on income and gains attributable to the variable account
assets. There is little guidance in this area and some of our Contract’s features, such as the flexibility of an Owner to allocate
Purchase Payments and transfer amounts among any available variable investment options, have not been explicitly addressed in published
rulings. While we believe that the Contracts do not give Owners investment control over Separate Account assets, we reserve the right
to modify the Contracts as necessary to prevent an Owner from being treated as the owner of the Separate Account assets.

Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Taxation
of Annuity Payments
For Annuity Payments from Non-Qualified
Contracts, the portion of each payment included in income is determined by an exclusion ratio. The exclusion ratio is a calculation that
causes a portion of each Annuity Payment to be non-taxable, based upon the percentage of your Contract Value that is from Purchase Payments.
We determine the exclusion ratio for Annuity Payments by dividing the investment in the Contract (adjusted for any guaranteed period or
refund guarantee) by the expected return anticipated to be paid as Annuity Payments (which is determined by Treasury Regulations). We
determine the amount of each Annuity Payment that is excluded from income by multiplying the Annuity Payment by the exclusion ratio. Annuity
Payments received after the investment in the Contract has been recovered (for example, when the total of the amounts excluded from income
equal the investment in the Contract) are fully taxable.
Generally, Annuity Payments from
Qualified Contracts are fully taxable unless you have separately tracked and reported any after-tax contributions that you have made.
Annuity Payments that are qualified distributions from Roth IRAs are federal income tax free. Owners, Annuitants and Beneficiaries under
the Contracts should seek competent advice about the tax consequences of any distributions.
Distributions
Upon the Owner’s Death (or Annuitant’s Death If the Owner Is a Non-Individual)
Section 72(s) of the Code requires
that, to be treated as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes, a Non-Qualified Contract must contain certain provisions regarding
distributions when an Owner dies. Specifically, Section 72(s) requires that: (a) if an Annuitant dies on or after you annuitize the Contract,
but before distribution of the entire Contract’s interest, the entire Contract’s interest must be distributed at least as
rapidly as under the distribution method being used as of the Annuitant’s date of death; and (b) if any Owner (or the Annuitant
if the Owner is a non-individual) dies before you annuitize the Contract, the Contract’s entire interest must be distributed within
five years after the Owner’s date of death.
These requirements are satisfied
as to any part of an Owner’s interest that is payable to, or for the benefit of, a designated Beneficiary and distributed over
the designated Beneficiary’s life, or over a period not extending beyond that Beneficiary’s life expectancy, provided that
distributions begin within one year of the Owner’s death. The designated Beneficiary refers to an individual designated by the
Owner as a Beneficiary and to whom ownership of the Contract passes by reason of death.
However, if the designated Beneficiary
is the deceased Owner’s surviving spouse, the surviving spouse can continue the Contract as the new Owner. If a couple is married
in a jurisdiction (including a foreign country) that recognizes same-sex marriage, that marriage will be recognized for all federal tax
purposes regardless of the law in the jurisdiction where they reside. However, the IRS did not recognize civil unions and registered domestic
partnerships as marriages for federal tax purposes. Depending on the state in which your Contract is issued, we may offer certain spousal
benefits to same-sex civil union couples, domestic partners or spouses. You should be aware, however, that, if state law does not recognize
the civil union or registered domestic partnership as a marriage, we cannot permit the surviving partner/spouse to continue the Contract
within the meaning of the federal tax law.
Same-sex civil union couples, domestic
partners and spouses should contact their financial professional and a qualified tax adviser regarding their personal tax situation, the
implications of any Contract benefits based on a spousal relationship, and their partner’s/spouse’s rights and benefits
under the Contract.
Non-Qualified Contracts contain provisions
that are intended to comply with these Code requirements.
Upon death of an Owner of a Qualified
Contract, the payment options described below are available to Beneficiaries of Owners who die on or after January 1, 2020. The rules
discussed below reference IRA Contracts, but similar rules also apply to qualified retirement plans. With some exceptions, IRA Beneficiaries
must receive their entire death benefit by December 31 following the tenth anniversary of the IRA Owner’s death.
The payment options for IRA Beneficiaries
differ depending on several factors, including whether a Beneficiary is an Eligible Designated Beneficiary (EDB). An EDB includes any
Beneficiary of the deceased IRA Owner who at time of death is: 1) the surviving spouse, 2) an individual not more than ten years younger
than the IRA Owner, 3) a minor child of the IRA Owner, 4) a chronically ill individual, or 5) disabled individual. EDB status is determined
at the IRA Owner’s death.
If you are an EDB, then you can begin
RMD payments based on your single life expectancy (“stretch payments”) in the year following the deceased Owner’s
death. You must begin to receive these RMD payments by December 31 of the year
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
following the
deceased Owner’s death (but see the exception for a spouse Beneficiary below). If you are an EDB that elected to receive payments
over your life expectancy, once you die, then your beneficiary must receive their entire death benefit by December 31 following the tenth
anniversary of your death. Your beneficiary must in certain circumstances continue stretch payments during this 10-year period.
For a minor child Beneficiary, the
payments based on life expectancy may continue only until the minor child reaches the age of majority (age 21). The minor child Beneficiary
must receive their entire death benefit by December 31 following the tenth anniversary of reaching the age of majority, with RMD payments
required during this period.
If you were the spouse Beneficiary
of the deceased Owner’s IRA Contract and your spouse had not yet reached the date at which he/she was required to begin receiving
RMD payments (treating a Roth IRA as a traditional IRA for this purpose only), then you can wait to begin receiving RMD payments until
the year that your spouse would have reached age 73 (age 75 if your spouse would have reached age 74 after December 31, 2032). Alternatively,
if the deceased Owner had already reached the date at which he/she was required to begin receiving RMD payments, you must begin to receive
these RMD payments by December 31 of the year following the deceased Owner’s death.
If you are a designated Beneficiary
(generally an individual), but are not an EDB, the entire death benefit must be distributed by December 31 after the tenth anniversary
of the IRA Owner’s death. If you die before the end of the ten-year period and the entire death benefit has not been distributed,
your beneficiary must receive the entire death benefit by the same date you would have been required to receive the death benefit. You
must receive an RMD each year if the Owner died on or after their required beginning date.
If the Beneficiary of the IRA Contract
is a trust, current Treasury Regulations provide “see-through” treatment for trusts that meet certain requirements. If such
treatment applies, the beneficiaries of the trust, rather than the trust itself will be treated as having been designated as Beneficiaries
of the IRA Contract for purposes of determining the distribution period for RMD payments. Individuals are encouraged to seek guidance
from their own tax professional or legal counsel to determine how these new rules apply to their particular situation.
If the IRA Beneficiary is not a “designated
beneficiary” (e.g., beneficiary is an estate, charity, or a trust that does not meet the requirements for “see-through”
treatment), then the payment options are unchanged by the SECURE Act. If the IRA Owner had not yet reached the date at which he/she was
required to begin receiving RMD payments (treating a Roth IRA as a traditional IRA for this purpose only), then these IRA Beneficiaries
must receive their entire death benefit by December 31 following the fifth anniversary of the IRA Owner’s death. Alternatively,
if the deceased Owner had already reached the date at which he/she was required to begin receiving RMD payments, these IRA Beneficiaries
can begin RMD payments based on the single life expectancy of the Owner in the year of the deceased Owner’s death, reduced by one.
These Beneficiaries must begin to receive these RMD payments by December 31 of the year following the deceased Owner’s death.
When the IRA Owner died before January
1, 2020, and the Beneficiary had elected stretch payments, the stretch payments can continue to the Beneficiary. But once that Beneficiary
dies, the successor beneficiary must receive any remaining death benefit by December 31 following the tenth anniversary of the original
Beneficiary’s death. The successor beneficiary must receive an RMD payment each year.
Annuitization options that a Beneficiary
may elect at the IRA Owner’s death must comply with death benefit payment rules. Also, if an IRA Owner elected an annuitization
option and then dies, action may be needed by the Beneficiary if any remaining Annuity Payments do not comply with the new death benefit
payment rules for a Beneficiary.
Tax-Free
Section 1035 Exchanges
Subject to certain restrictions,
you can make a “tax-free” exchange under Section 1035 of the Code for all or a portion of a non-qualified annuity contract(s)
to a different non-qualified annuity contract, or all of a life insurance policy for a non-qualified annuity contract. If you perform
a partial 1035 exchange, please be aware that no distributions or withdrawals can occur from the old or new annuity contract within 180
days of the partial exchange, unless you qualify for an exception to this rule. IRS guidance also provides that certain partial exchanges
may not qualify as tax-free exchanges. You should consult a tax adviser to discuss the potential tax effects before making a 1035 exchange.
Before making an exchange, you should
compare both contracts carefully. Remember that if you exchange a life insurance policy or annuity contract for the Contract described
in this prospectus:
●
you
might have to pay a withdrawal charge on your previous contract,
●
there
is a new withdrawal charge period for this Contract,
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
●
other
fees and expenses under this Contract may be higher (or lower),
●
the
benefits may be different, and
●
you
no longer have access to any benefits from your previous contract.
If the exchange does not qualify
for Section 1035 treatment, you also may have to pay federal income tax, including a possible additional federal tax, on the exchange.
You should not exchange an existing life insurance policy or another annuity contract for this Contract unless you determine the exchange
is in your best interest and not just better for the person selling you the Contract who generally earns a commission on each sale.
Multiple
Non-Qualified Contracts Purchased In the Same Year By the Same Owner
Code Section 72(e)(12) provides that
multiple Non-Qualified deferred annuity contracts issued within the same calendar year to the same owner by one company or its affiliates
are treated as one annuity contract for purposes of determining a distribution’s tax consequences. This treatment may result in
adverse tax consequences, including more rapid taxation of distributions from combined contracts. For purposes of this rule, contracts
received in a Section 1035 exchange are considered issued in the year of the exchange. You should consult a tax adviser before requesting
a distribution if you purchased more than one Non-Qualified Contract in any calendar year period.
Assignments,
Pledges and Gratuitous Transfers
Any assignment or pledge (or agreement
to assign or pledge) the Contract Value is treated for federal income tax purposes as a full withdrawal. The Contract will not qualify
for tax deferral while the assignment or pledge is effective. Qualified Contracts generally cannot be assigned, pledged, or transferred
to another individual. For Non-Qualified Contracts, the Contract’s cost basis is increased by the amount includible as income with
respect to such amount or portion, though it is not affected by any other aspect of the assignment or pledge (including its release).
If an Owner transfers a Non-Qualified Contract (an ownership change) without adequate consideration to a person other than their spouse
(or to a former spouse incident to divorce), the Owner is taxed on the difference between his or her Contract Value and the Contract’s
cost basis at the time of transfer. In such case, the transferee’s investment in the Contract is increased to reflect the increase
in the transferor’s income. An Owner should consult a tax adviser before requesting an assignment, transfer, or pledge.
Any part of a distribution that is
taxable to the Owner or Beneficiary is subject to federal and/or state income tax withholding. Generally, we withhold amounts from Annuity
Payments at the same rate as wages, and we withhold 10% from non-periodic payments, such as withdrawals. However, in most cases, you may
elect not to have taxes withheld or to have withholding done at a different rate.
Certain distributions from retirement
plans qualified under Code Section 401 that are not directly rolled over to another eligible retirement plan or IRA, are subject to a
mandatory 20% federal income tax withholding. The 20% withholding requirement generally does not apply to:
●
a
series of substantially equal payments made at least annually for the life or life expectancy of the participant or joint and last survivor
expectancy of the participant and a designated Beneficiary, or for a specified period of ten years or more; or
●
any
part of a distribution not included in gross income (for example, returns of after-tax contributions); or
Plan participants should consult
a tax adviser regarding income tax withholding requirements.
While no attempt is being made to
discuss the Contract’s federal estate tax implications, an Owner should keep in mind the annuity contract’s value payable
to a Beneficiary upon the Owner’s death is included in the deceased Owner’s gross estate. Depending on the annuity contract,
the annuity’s value included in the gross estate may be the value of the lump sum payment payable to the designated Beneficiary,
or the actuarial value of the payments to be received by the Beneficiary. Consult an estate planning adviser for more information.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Generation-Skipping
Transfer Tax
The Code may impose a “generation-skipping
transfer tax” when all or part of an annuity contract is transferred to, or a death benefit is paid to, an individual two or more
generations younger than the Owner. Regulations may require us to deduct this tax from your Contract, or from any applicable payment,
and pay it directly to the IRS.
We may benefit from any foreign tax
credits attributable to taxes paid by certain funds to foreign jurisdictions to the extent permitted under the federal tax law.
Although the likelihood of legislative
or regulatory changes is uncertain, there is always the possibility that the Contract’s tax treatment could change. Consult a tax
adviser with respect to legislative or regulatory developments and their effect on the Contract.
We have the right to modify the Contract
in response to legislative or regulatory changes that could otherwise diminish the favorable tax treatment that annuity owners currently
receive. We make no guarantee regarding the tax status of any Contract and do not intend the above discussion as tax advice.
13. Other
Information
Allianz Life Financial Services,
LLC (ALFS), a wholly owned subsidiary of Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America, serves as principal underwriter for the Contracts.
ALFS is a limited liability company organized in Minnesota, and is located at 5701 Golden Hills Drive, Minneapolis, MN 55416. ALFS is
registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as well as with the securities commissions in the
states in which it operates, and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). ALFS is not a member of Securities
Investors Protection Corporation. More information about ALFS is available at https://www.finra.org or by calling 1-800-289-9999. You
also can obtain an investor brochure from FINRA describing its Public Disclosure Program.
We have entered into a distribution
agreement with ALFS for the distribution of the Contracts. ALFS also may perform various administrative services on our behalf.
We may fund ALFS operating and other
expenses, including:
●
Financial
Professional training,
●
compensation
for the ALFS management team, and
●
other
expenses associated with the Contracts.
Financial Professionals and their
managers may also be eligible for various benefits, such as production incentive bonuses, insurance benefits, and non-cash compensation
items that we may provide jointly with ALFS. Non-cash items include conferences, seminars and trips (including travel, lodging and meals
in connection therewith), entertainment, awards, merchandise and other similar items.
ALFS does not itself sell the Contracts
on a retail basis. Rather, ALFS enters into selling agreements with other broker-dealers registered under the 1934 Act (selling firms)
for the sale of the Contracts. The following table shows the aggregate dollar amount of underwriting commissions paid to ALFS for each
of Allianz Life’s last two fiscal years. The underwriter did not retain any part of the commissions.
We and/or ALFS may make bonus payments
to certain selling firms based on aggregate sales of our variable insurance contracts (including this Contract) or persistency standards,
or as part of a special promotion. These additional payments are not offered to all selling firms, and the terms of any particular agreement
governing the payments may vary among selling firms. In some instances, the amount paid may be significant.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
A portion of
the payments made to selling firms may be passed on to their Financial Professionals. Financial Professionals may receive cash and non-cash
compensation and other benefits. Ask your Financial Professional for further information about what they and their firm may receive in
connection with your Contract.
Commissions paid on the Contract,
including other incentives or payments, are not charged directly to the Owners or the Separate Account. We intend to recover commissions
and other expenses indirectly through fees and expenses imposed under the Contract.
Broker-dealers and their Financial
Professionals and managers involved in sales of the Contracts may receive payments from us for administrative and other services that
do not directly involve the sale of the Contracts, including payments made for recordkeeping, the recruitment and training of personnel,
production of promotional literature and similar services. In addition, certain firms and their Financial Professionals may receive compensation
for distribution and administrative services when acting in a wholesaling capacity and working with retail firms.
In certain instances, we and/or ALFS
may make payments to a broker-dealer for inclusion of this Contract in its list of products that it offers for sale.
We and/or ALFS may pay certain selling
firms additional marketing support allowances for:
●
marketing
services and increased access to their Financial Professionals;
●
sales
promotions relating to the Contracts;
●
costs
associated with sales conferences and educational seminars;
●
the
cost of client meetings and presentations; and
●
other
sales expenses incurred by them.
We retain substantial discretion
in determining whether to grant a marketing support payment to a particular broker-dealer firm and the amount of any such payment.
We may also make payments for marketing
and wholesaling support to broker-dealer affiliates of underlying funds that are available through the annuities we offer.
Additional information regarding
marketing support payments can be found in the Distributor section of the SAI.
Some Financial Professionals may
have a financial incentive to offer you a new contract in place of the one you already own. You should only exchange your Contract if
you determine, after comparing the features, risks, and fees of both contracts, including 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.
The AZL Government Money Market Fund
pays a Rule 12b-1 fee to ALFS as consideration for providing distribution and certain other services and incurring certain expenses permitted
under the Fund’s plan. This fee is 0.25% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the most recent calendar year.
In certain instances, an investment
adviser and/or subadviser (and/or their affiliates) of an underlying fund may make payments for administrative services to ALFS or its
affiliates.
We offer the Contracts to the public
on a continuous basis. We anticipate continuing to offer the Contracts but reserve the right to discontinue the offering.
Additional
Credits for Certain Groups
We may credit additional amounts
to a Contract instead of modifying charges because of special circumstances that result in lower sales or administrative expenses or better
than expected mortality or persistency experience.
Administration/Allianz
Service Center
The Allianz Service Center performs
certain administrative services regarding the Contracts and is located at 5701 Golden Hills Drive, Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Service
Center mailing address and telephone number are listed at the back of this prospectus. The administrative and routine customer services
performed by our Service Center include processing and mailing of account statements and other mailings to Owners, responding to Owner
correspondence and inquiries. Allianz Life also contracts with Tata Consultancy Services (Tata) located at #42(P) & 45(P), Think Campus,
Electronic City, Phase II, Bangalore, Karnataka 560100, India, to perform certain administrative services including:
●
issuance
and maintenance of the Contracts,

maintenance
of Owner records, and
Index

●
routine
customer service including:
−
processing
of Contract changes,
−
processing
withdrawal requests (both partial and total), and
−
processing
requests for fixed annuity payments.
Services performed by Tata are overseen
and quality control checked by our Service Center.
To reduce expenses, only one copy
of most financial reports and prospectuses, including reports and the prospectus for the Fund, may be mailed to your household, even if
you or other persons in your household have more than one contract issued by us or our affiliate. Call our Service Center at the toll-free
telephone number listed at the back of this prospectus if you need additional copies of financial reports, prospectuses, or annual and
semiannual reports, or if you would like to receive one copy for each contract in future mailings.
We and our subsidiaries, like other
life insurance companies, from time to time are involved in legal proceedings of various kinds, including regulatory proceedings and individual
and class action lawsuits. In some legal proceedings involving insurers, substantial damages have been sought and/or material settlement
payments have been made. Although the outcome of any such proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that, at the present
time, there are no pending or threatened legal proceedings to which we, the Separate Account, or ALFS is a party that are reasonably likely
to materially affect the Separate Account, our ability to meet our obligations under the Contracts, or ALFS ability to perform its obligations.
Allianz Life is not an investment
company and therefore we are not registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the protections
provided by this Act are not applicable to the guarantees we provide. The Separate Account is, however, registered as an investment company.
Any allocations you make to an Index Option are not part of the Separate Account. Allianz Life is not an investment adviser and so is
not subject to the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. We do not provide investment advice to you in connection with your Contract.
Your Contract is registered in accordance
with the Securities Act of 1933 and the offering of the Contract must be conducted in accordance with the requirements of this Act. In
addition, the offer and sale of the Contract is subject to the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The Contract is filed with and approved
by each state in which the Contract is offered. State insurance laws provide a variety of regulatory protections.

The following is a list of Index
Options currently available under the Contract. We may change certain features of the Index Options listed below (including the Index

provide you with written notice before making any changes other than changes to current limits on Index gains. Information about current
limits on Index gains is available at https://www.allianzlife.com/RILAratesnf.
Note: If amounts
are removed from an Index Option before the Term End Date, we will apply a Daily Adjustment. Except for Index Options under the Index
Protection Strategy with Trigger, 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 such amounts were not removed from the Index Option until the Term End Date. The Index Protection
Strategy with Trigger is unique in that the Daily Adjustment cannot be negative.

This Index is a “price return index,”
not a “total return index,” and therefore does not reflect the dividends paid on the securities composing the Index, which
will reduce the Index Return and may cause the Index to underperform a direct investment in the securities composing the Index. For the
EURO STOXX 50®,
this Index is a euro “price return index” and Index Returns are determined without any exchange rate adjustment.
(2)
This Index is an ETF. Index Values are based on the
ETF’s closing share price. Index performance is calculated on a “price return” basis, not a “total return”
basis, and therefore does not reflect the dividends paid on the securities in which the ETF invests. In addition, an ETF deducts fees
and costs, which reduce Index performance. These factors will reduce the Index Return and may cause the Index to underperform a direct
investment in the ETF or the securities in which the ETF invests.
(3)
May be uncapped for a Term.
The current limit
on Index loss for an Index Option will not change for the life of that Index Option. However, we reserve the right to add new Index Options,
as well as close Index Options to new Purchase Payments and transfers. As such, the limits on Index loss offered under the Contract may
change from one Term to the next if we add an Index Option or discontinue accepting new allocations into an Index Option.
If we offer a new
Index Option with a Buffer or Floor in the future, the Buffer or Floor will be no lower than 5% or -25%, respectively. The lowest Trigger
Rate, Cap, and Participation Rate that we may establish if we add a new Index Option to the Contract are 0.05%, 0.10%, and 5.00%, respectively.
At least one Index
Option with a Buffer no lower than 5% or Floor no lower than -25%, or an Index Option that provides complete protection from Index losses,
will always be available for renewal under the Contract.

Appendix
C – Daily Adjustment
We designed the Daily Adjustment
to provide an Index Option Value for each Index Option on Business Days other than the Term Start Date or Term End Date. The Daily Adjustment
approximates the Performance Credit that will be available on the Term End Date, adjusting for:
(i)
any
Index gains during the Term subject to the Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or Participation Rate,
(ii)
the
Index Dual Precision Strategy, any Index losses less than or equal to the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer,
(iii)
either
any Index losses greater than the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer, or any Index losses down to the -10% Floor (not applicable to the Index Protection
Strategy with Trigger), and
(iv)
the
number of days until the Term End Date.
The Daily Adjustment formula has
two primary components, (i) the change in Proxy Value, and (ii) accumulated proxy interest, which are added together and then multiplied
by the Index Option Base. We designed the Daily Adjustment to estimate the present value of positive or negative Performance Credits on
the Term End Date taking into account any applicable Buffer, Floor, Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or Participation Rate. You should note that
even if your selected Index(es) experience positive growth, the Daily Adjustments may be negative because of other market conditions,
such as the expected volatility of Index Values and interest rates. Therefore, the Daily Adjustment could result in a loss beyond the
protection of the Buffer or Floor. The Daily Adjustment for Index Options with a Term length of more than 1 year may be more negatively
impacted by changes in the expected volatility of Index Values than 1-year Term Index Options due to the difference in Term length. Also,
the risk of a negative Daily Adjustment is generally greater for Index Options with a Term length of more than 1 year than for 1-year
Term Index Options with the same Buffer because the Buffer is exposed to a longer time period. The impact of the Cap, Trigger Rate, and
Buffer on the Daily Adjustment for a 1-year Term Index Option is usually greater than it is for a 3-year or 6-year Term Index Option because
we apply the Cap, Trigger Rate, and Buffer for the entire Term length, and the Term length is shorter for a 1-year Term. The Daily Adjustment
for the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger cannot be negative.
The formula for the calculation of
the Daily Adjustment is as follows:
Daily Adjustment = [(a) change in
Proxy Value + (b) proxy interest] x Index Option Base
(a)
change
in Proxy Value = (current Proxy Value – beginning Proxy Value)
(b)
proxy
interest = beginning Proxy Value x (1 – time remaining during the Term)
Calculating Change
in Proxy Value
The change in Proxy Value represents
the current hypothetical value of the Proxy Investment (current Proxy Value), less the cost of the Proxy Investment on the Term Start
Date (beginning Proxy Value).
The current Proxy Value is the Proxy
Value calculated on the same day as the Daily Adjustment. The beginning Proxy Value is the Proxy Value calculated on the Term Start Date.
The Proxy Value is calculated differently
for each Crediting Method.
For the Index
Performance Strategy, the Proxy Value involves tracking
three hypothetical derivatives and is calculated using the following formula:
Proxy Value = (at-the-money call)
– (out-of-the-money call) – (out-of-the-money put)
With respect to our Proxy Value formula,
we designed the at-the-money call and out-of-the-money call to value the potential for Index gains subject to any Participation Rate up
to the Cap, and the out-of-the-money put to value the potential for Index losses greater than the Buffer for the Index Performance
Strategy. Similar to the Index Precision Strategy and Index Dual Precision Strategy, it is important to note that the out-of-the-money
put will almost always reduce the Proxy Value, even when the current Index Value on a Business Day is higher than the Index Value on the
Term Start Date. This is because the risk that the Index Value could be lower on the Term End Date is present to some extent whether or
not the current Index Value on a Business Day is lower than the Index Value on the Term Start Date. For purposes of the Proxy Value formula
the value of the out-of-the-money call will be zero if an Index Option is uncapped.
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Prospectus – October 28, 2025
Appendix C
For the Index
Guard Strategy, the Proxy Value involves tracking four
hypothetical derivatives and is calculated using the following formula:
Proxy Value = (at-the-money call)
– (out-of-the-money call) – (at-the-money put) + (out-of-the-money put)
With respect to our Proxy Value formula,
we designed the at-the-money call and out-of-the-money call to value the potential for Index gains up to the Cap and the at-the-money
put to value the potential for Index losses, but add back the out-of-the-money put to mimic the protection of the -10% Floor for the Index
Guard Strategy. It is important to note that the at-the-money put will almost always reduce the Proxy Value, even when the current Index
Value on a Business Day is higher than the Index Value on the Term Start Date. It is also important to note that the out-of-the-money
put will almost always reduce, and never exceed, the negative impact of the at-the-money put for the Index Guard Strategy.
For the Index
Dual Precision Strategy, the Proxy Value involves tracking
two hypothetical derivatives and is calculated using the following formula:
Proxy Value = [Trigger Rate x (in-the-money
binary call)] – (out-of-the-money put)
With respect to our Proxy Value formula,
we designed the in-the-money binary call to value the potential for gains equal to the Trigger Rate if on the Term End Date, the Index
Value divided by the Index Value on the Term Start Date is greater than or equal to: 90% for a 10% Buffer, 80% for a 20% Buffer,
or 70% for a 30% Buffer, and the out-of-the-money put to value the potential for Index losses greater than the Buffer for the Index Dual
Precision Strategy. Similar to the Index Performance Strategy and Index Precision Strategy, it is important to note that the out-of-the-money
put will almost always reduce the Proxy Value, even when the current Index Value on a Business Day is higher than the Index Value on the
Term Start Date. This is because the risk that the Index Value could be lower on the Term End Date is present to some extent whether or
not the current Index Value on a Business Day is lower than the Index Value on the Term Start Date.
For the Index
Precision Strategy, the Proxy Value involves tracking two
hypothetical derivatives and is calculated using the following formula:
Proxy Value = [Trigger Rate x (at-the-money
binary call)] – (out-of-the-money put)
With respect to our Proxy Value formula,
we designed the at-the-money binary call to value the potential for gains equal to the Trigger Rate if on the Term End Date, the Index
Value is greater than or equal to the Index Value on the Term Start Date, and the out-of-the-money put to value the potential for Index
losses greater than the Buffer for the Index Precision Strategy. Similar to the Index Performance Strategy and Index Dual Precision Strategy,
it is important to note that the out-of-the-money put will almost always reduce the Proxy Value, even when the current Index Value on
a Business Day is higher than the Index Value on the Term Start Date. This is because the risk that the Index Value could be lower on
the Term End Date is present to some extent whether or not the current Index Value on a Business Day is lower than the Index Value on
the Term Start Date.
For the Index
Protection Strategy with Trigger, the Proxy Value involves
tracking one hypothetical derivative and is calculated using the following formula:
Proxy Value = Trigger Rate x (at-the-money
binary call)
With respect to our Proxy Value formula,
we designed the at-the-money binary call to value the potential for gains equal to the Trigger Rate if on the Term End Date, the Index
Value is greater than or equal to the Index Value on the Term Start Date.
Calculating Proxy Interest
The proxy interest is an amount of
interest that is earned to provide compensation for the cost of the Proxy Investment on the Term Start Date. The proxy interest is approximated
by the value of amortizing the cost of the Proxy Investment over the Term to zero. The formula for proxy interest involves the calculation
of: (i) the beginning Proxy Value (the formula for which varies depending on the Crediting Method, as previously discussed), and
(ii) the time remaining during the Term. The time remaining during the Term is equal to the number of days remaining in the Term divided
by the Term length. The Term length is equal to the number of days from the Term Start Date to the Term End Date. The proxy interest may
be significantly different from current interest rates available on interest bearing investments.

D – Rider Fee Calculation Example
Please
note that this example may differ from your actual results due to rounding.
You purchase a Contract with the
Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit. On the Quarterly Contract Anniversary your annual rider fee is 0.20% and your Contract Value
and Charge Base are $100,000. This Contract Value includes any gains or losses on the Variable Option and any Daily Adjustments or Performance
Credits on the Index Options. During the quarter you make no additional Purchase Payments and take no withdrawals. We calculate the daily
rider fee amount for this quarter as follows:
(the Charge Base)
x (annual rider fee ÷ 365) = daily rider fee amount, or:
$100,000 x (0.20% ÷ 365) = $0.55
If there are 89 days in the current
quarter (which includes the next Quarterly Contract Anniversary), then the total quarterly rider fee is:
(number of days
in the current quarter) x (daily rider fee amount), or: 89 x $0.55 = $48.77
On the next Quarterly Contract Anniversary
we would deduct $48.77 from the Contract Value. We first account for any gains/losses on the Variable Option and add any Daily Adjustments
or Performance Credits to the Index Option Values, then process any additional Purchase Payments, withdrawals you take, and deductions
we make for the total quarterly rider fee. We then set the Charge Base equal to this new Contract Value. If the Contract Value at the
end of the day on the Quarterly Contract Anniversary after all processing is $101,250 we would begin computing the daily rider fee for
the next quarter on the next day as:
(the Charge Base)
x (annual rider fee ÷ 365) = daily rider fee amount, or: $101,250 x (0.20% ÷ 365) = $0.55
If you make an additional Purchase
Payment of $15,000 on the 43rd day of the next quarter, your Charge Base would increase by the dollar amount of the payment to $116,250
($101,250 + $15,000). We would then use this new Charge Base to begin computing the daily rider fee for the remainder of the quarter on
the next day as:
(the Charge Base)
x (annual rider fee ÷ 365) = daily rider fee amount, or: $116,250 x (0.20% ÷ 365) = $0.64
If there are 92 days in the current
quarter (which includes the next Quarterly Contract Anniversary), then the total quarterly rider fee is:
(number of days
in the current quarter) x (daily rider fee amount), or:
(43 x $0.55) + (49 x $0.64) = $23.86
+ $31.21 = $55.07
On the next Quarterly Contract Anniversary
we would deduct $55.07 from the Contract Value after we account for any gains/losses on the Variable Option and add any Daily Adjustments
or Performance Credits to the Index Option Values. We would then process any additional Purchase Payments, withdrawals you take, and deductions
we make for the total quarterly rider fee and set the Charge Base equal to this new Contract Value and begin computing the daily rider
fee for the next quarter on the next day.

Allianz
Life as Custodian
Allianz Life does not have a separate
custodian for the assets owned through the Separate Account. Most mutual fund shares are not in certificated form, and as such, Allianz
Life in effect acts as self custodian for the non-certificated shares we own through the Separate Account.
Legal
Opinions
Doug Hodgson, Associate General Counsel,
Senior Counsel of Allianz Life, has provided legal advice on certain matters in connection with the issuance of the Contracts.
Distributor
The Contracts, which are offered
continuously, are distributed by Allianz Life Financial Services, LLC (ALFS), a wholly owned subsidiary of Allianz Life Insurance
Company of North America.
ALFS sells annuity contracts issued
by Allianz Life primarily through “wholesaling,” in which ALFS sells contracts through a large group of mostly non-affiliated
broker/dealer firms. Currently, ALFS has agreements with approximately 506 retail broker/dealers to sell its contracts.
As described in the prospectus, ALFS
may pay marketing support payments to certain third-party firms for marketing our contracts. Currently, ALFS makes marketing support payments
to approximately 78 broker-dealer firms. These payments vary in amount. In 2024, the five firms receiving the largest payments, ranging
from $1,309,570.30 to $16,775,219.99 are listed below.

When
the Contract ends.
The Annuity Payment Options are briefly
described in prospectus section 9 – The Annuity Phase, and we included additional information that you may find helpful here.
Option A - Guaranteed
Period. We make Annuity Payments for a guaranteed period
of ten years. If the Annuitant dies before the end of the guaranteed period, then we continue to make Annuity Payments to the Payee for
the rest of the guaranteed period. If the Payee and Annuitant were the same person, we make payments to the Owner. If the Payee, Annuitant
and Owner were the same person, we make payments to the Beneficiary(ies).
Option B - Life.
We make Annuity Payments during the life of the Annuitant, and the last payment is the one that is due before the Annuitant’s death.
If the Annuitant dies shortly after the Annuity Date, the Payee may receive less than your investment in the Contract.
Option C - Life with Guaranteed
Period of 5 or 10 Years. We make Annuity Payments during the life of the Annuitant.
If the Annuitant dies before the end of the selected guaranteed period, we continue to make Annuity Payments to the Payee for the rest
of the guaranteed period. If the Payee and Annuitant were the same person, we make payments to the Owner. If the Payee, Annuitant and
Owner were the same person, we make payments to the Beneficiary(ies). If the Annuitant dies after the selected guaranteed period ends,
the last payment is the one that is due before the Annuitant’s death.
Option F - Joint
and Survivor. We make Annuity Payments during the lifetimes
of the Annuitant and the joint Annuitant. Upon the death of one Annuitant, Annuity Payments to the Payee continue during the lifetime
of the surviving joint Annuitant. Annuity Payments stop with the last payment that is due before the last surviving joint Annuitant’s
death. If both Annuitants die shortly after the Annuity Date, the Payee may receive less than your investment in the Contract.
Option G - Joint
and 2/3 Survivor Annuity. We make Annuity Payments during
the lifetimes of the Annuitant and the joint Annuitant. Upon the death of one Annuitant, Annuity Payments to the Payee continue during
the lifetime of the surviving joint Annuitant at 2/3 of the original amount. Annuity Payments stop with the last payment that is due before
the last surviving joint Annuitant’s death. If both Annuitants die shortly after the Annuity Date, the Payee may receive less than
your investment in the Contract.

Annuity Statement of Additional Information – October 28, 2025
Appendix A
Appendix
B – Daily Adjustment Calculation
We designed the Daily Adjustment
to provide an Index Option Value for each Index Option on Business Days other than the Term Start Date or Term End Date. The Daily Adjustment
approximates the Performance Credit that will be available on the Term End Date, adjusting for:
(i)
any
Index gains during the Term subject to the Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or Participation Rate,
(ii)
the
Index Dual Precision Strategy, any Index losses less than or equal to the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer,
(iii)
either
any Index losses greater than the 10%, 20%, or 30% Buffer, or any Index losses down to the -10% Floor (not applicable to the Index Protection
Strategy with Trigger), and
(iv)
the
number of days until the Term End Date.
The Daily Adjustment formula has
two primary components, (i) the change in Proxy Value, and (ii) accumulated proxy interest, which are added together and then multiplied
by the Index Option Base. We designed the Daily Adjustment to estimate the present value of positive or negative Performance Credits on
the Term End Date taking into account any applicable Buffer, Floor, Trigger Rate, Cap, and/or Participation Rate. You should note that
even if your selected Index(es) experience positive growth, the Daily Adjustments may be negative because of other market conditions,
such as the expected volatility of Index Values and interest rates. Therefore, the Daily Adjustment could result in a loss beyond the
protection of the Buffer or Floor. The Daily Adjustment for Index Options with a Term length of more than 1 year may be more negatively
impacted by changes in the expected volatility of Index Values than 1-year Term Index Options due to the difference in Term length. Also,
the risk of a negative Daily Adjustment is generally greater for Index Options with a Term length of more than 1 year than for 1-year
Term Index Options with the same Buffer because the Buffer is exposed to a longer time period. The impact of the Cap, Trigger Rate, and
Buffer on the Daily Adjustment for a 1-year Term Index Option is usually greater than it is for a 3-year or 6-year Term Index Option because
we apply the Cap, Trigger Rate, and Buffer for the entire Term length, and the Term length is shorter for a 1-year Term. The Daily Adjustment
for the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger cannot be negative.
The formula for the calculation of
the Daily Adjustment is as follows:
Daily Adjustment = [(a) change in
Proxy Value + (b) proxy interest] x Index Option Base
(a)
change
in Proxy Value = (current Proxy Value – beginning Proxy Value)
(b)
proxy
interest = beginning Proxy Value x (1 – time remaining during the Term)
Calculating Change
in Proxy Value
The change in Proxy Value represents
the current hypothetical value of the Proxy Investment (current Proxy Value), less the cost of the Proxy Investment on the Term Start
Date (beginning Proxy Value).
The current Proxy Value is the Proxy
Value calculated on the same day as the Daily Adjustment. The beginning Proxy Value is the Proxy Value calculated on the Term Start Date.
The Proxy Value is calculated differently
for each Crediting Method.
For the Index
Performance Strategy, the Proxy Value involves tracking
three hypothetical derivatives and is calculated using the following formula:
Proxy Value = (at-the-money call)
– (out-of-the-money call) – (out-of-the-money put)
With respect to our Proxy Value formula,
we designed the at-the-money call and out-of-the-money call to value the potential for Index gains subject to any Participation Rate up
to the Cap, and the out-of-the-money put to value the potential for Index losses greater than the Buffer for the Index Performance
Strategy. Similar to the Index Precision Strategy and Index Dual Precision Strategy, it is important to note that the out-of-the-money
put will almost always reduce the Proxy Value, even when the current Index Value on a Business Day is higher than the Index Value on the
Term Start Date. This is because the risk that the Index Value could be lower on the Term End Date is present to some extent whether
Index
Advantage+ NF®
Annuity Statement of Additional Information – October 28, 2025
Appendix B
or not the current
Index Value on a Business Day is lower than the Index Value on the Term Start Date. For purposes of the Proxy Value formula the value
of the out-of-the-money call will be zero if an Index Option is uncapped.
For the Index
Guard Strategy, the Proxy Value involves tracking four
hypothetical derivatives and is calculated using the following formula:
Proxy Value = (at-the-money call)
– (out-of-the-money call) – (at-the-money put) + (out-of-the-money put)
With respect to our Proxy Value formula,
we designed the at-the-money call and out-of-the-money call to value the potential for Index gains up to the Cap and the at-the-money
put to value the potential for Index losses, but add back the out-of-the-money put to mimic the protection of the -10% Floor for the Index
Guard Strategy. It is important to note that the at-the-money put will almost always reduce the Proxy Value, even when the current Index
Value on a Business Day is higher than the Index Value on the Term Start Date. It is also important to note that the out-of-the-money
put will almost always reduce, and never exceed, the negative impact of the at-the-money put for the Index Guard Strategy.
For the Index
Dual Precision Strategy, the Proxy Value involves tracking
two hypothetical derivatives and is calculated using the following formula:
Proxy Value = [Trigger Rate x (in-the-money
binary call)] – (out-of-the-money put)
With respect to our Proxy Value formula,
we designed the in-the-money binary call to value the potential for gains equal to the Trigger Rate if on the Term End Date, the Index
Value divided by the Index Value on the Term Start Date is greater than or equal to: 90% for a 10% Buffer, 80% for a 20% Buffer,
or 70% for a 30% Buffer, and the out-of-the-money put to value the potential for Index losses greater than the Buffer for the Index Dual
Precision Strategy. Similar to the Index Performance Strategy and Index Precision Strategy, it is important to note that the out-of-the-money
put will almost always reduce the Proxy Value, even when the current Index Value on a Business Day is higher than the Index Value on the
Term Start Date. This is because the risk that the Index Value could be lower on the Term End Date is present to some extent whether or
not the current Index Value on a Business Day is lower than the Index Value on the Term Start Date.
For the Index
Precision Strategy, the Proxy Value involves tracking two
hypothetical derivatives and is calculated using the following formula:
Proxy Value = [Trigger Rate x (at-the-money
binary call)] – (out-of-the-money put)
With respect to our Proxy Value formula,
we designed the at-the-money binary call to value the potential for gains equal to the Trigger Rate if on the Term End Date, the Index
Value is greater than or equal to the Index Value on the Term Start Date, and the out-of-the-money put to value the potential for Index
losses greater than the Buffer for the Index Precision Strategy. Similar to the Index Performance Strategy and Index Dual Precision Strategy,
it is important to note that the out-of-the-money put will almost always reduce the Proxy Value, even when the current Index Value on
a Business Day is higher than the Index Value on the Term Start Date. This is because the risk that the Index Value could be lower on
the Term End Date is present to some extent whether or not the current Index Value on a Business Day is lower than the Index Value on
the Term Start Date.
For the Index
Protection Strategy with Trigger, the Proxy Value involves
tracking one hypothetical derivative and is calculated using the following formula:
Proxy Value = Trigger Rate x (at-the-money
binary call)
With respect to our Proxy Value formula,
we designed the at-the-money binary call to value the potential for gains equal to the Trigger Rate if on the Term End Date, the Index
Value is greater than or equal to the Index Value on the Term Start Date.
At-the-money binary
call (AMBC)
This is an option with payoff of either
one or zero on the Term End Date at the strike price of one. On a Term End Date the AMBC’s value is equal to one if the Index Value
on the Term End Date is greater than or equal to the Index Value on the Term Start Date, or zero otherwise.
In-the-money binary
call (IMBC)
This is an option with payoff of either
one or zero on the Term End Date at the strike price of one minus the Buffer. On a

Term End Date
the IMBC’s value is equal to one if the Index Value on the Term End Date divided by the Index Value on the Term Start Date is greater
than or equal to one minus the Buffer, or zero otherwise.
At-the-money call
(AMC)
This is an option to buy a position in the Index
on the Term End Date at the strike price of one. On a Term End Date the AMC’s value is equal to the Index Value on the Term End
Date divided by the Index Value on the Term Start Date, then minus one, the difference being no less than zero.
At-the-money put
(AMP)
This is an option to sell a position in the
Index on the Term End Date at the strike price of one. On a Term End Date the AMP’s value is equal to one minus the quotient of
the Index Value on the Term End Date divided by the Index Value on the Term Start Date, the difference being no less than zero.
Out-of-the-money
call (OMC)
This is an option to buy a position in
the Index on the Term End Date at the strike price of (one plus the Cap, or one plus the Cap divided by the Participation Rate for Index
Options with a Participation Rate). On a Term End Date the OMC’s value is equal to the Index Value on the Term End Date divided
by the Index Value on the Term Start Date, then minus the sum of (one plus the Cap, or one plus the Cap divided by the Participation Rate
for Index Options with a Participation Rate), the difference being no less than zero. For purposes of the Proxy Value formula if an Index
Option is uncapped the OMC will be zero.
Out-of-the-money-put
(OMP)
This is an option to sell a position in the
Index on the Term End Date at the strike price of (one either minus the Buffer or plus the Floor, depending on the Index Option). On a
Term End Date the OMP’s value is equal to one either minus the Buffer or plus the Floor, then minus the quotient of the Index Value
on the Term End Date divided by the Index Value on the Term Start Date, the difference being no less than zero.
Calculating Proxy Interest
The proxy interest is an amount of
interest that is earned to provide compensation for the cost of the Proxy Investment on the Term Start Date. The proxy interest is approximated
by the value of amortizing the cost of the Proxy Investment over the Term to zero. The formula for proxy interest involves the calculation
of: (i) the beginning Proxy Value (the formula for which varies depending on the Crediting Method, as previously discussed), and
(ii) the time remaining during the Term. The time remaining during the Term is equal to the number of days remaining in the Term divided
by the Term length. The Term length is equal to the number of days from the Term Start Date to the Term End Date. The proxy interest may
be significantly different from current interest rates available on interest bearing investments.
Throughout the Term, on Business
Days other than the Term Start Date or Term End Date, we calculate each hypothetical derivative daily using a fair market value methodology.
The purpose of this calculation is to determine the market value of your allocation. Changes in Proxy Value inputs can result in a negative
Daily Adjustment even with a positive return in the Index.
Term TD return
– The Index Value at the end of the current Business Day divided by the Index Value on the Term Start Date, minus one and expressed
as a percent. The Index Values are provided daily by Bloomberg or another market source.
Dividend yield
– The expected dividend yield as approximated by a market source, including any adjustments for exchange rates. We use dividend
yields consistent with the market pricing of options. Since dividends typically reduce Index Values, a higher dividend yield will lead
to a lower expected Index Value.

Strike
price – This varies for each derivative investment
as follows.
●
For
an AMBC, AMC or AMP the strike price is equal to 1.
−
For
Index Options without a Participation Rate, the strike price is equal to 1 plus the Cap.
−
For
Index Options with a Participation Rate, the strike price is equal to 1 plus the Cap divided by the Participation Rate.
●
For
an OMP or IMBC the strike price is equal to 1 either minus the Buffer or plus the Floor, depending on the Index Option.
If an Index Option is uncapped, we
do not use the OMC.
Notional amount
– For Index Options with a Participation Rate, the notional amount reflects the increase in the amount of derivative instruments
required within the Proxy Investment due to the Participation Rate. The notional amount varies for each derivative investment as follows:
●
For
an AMC or OMC the notional amount is equal to the Participation Rate.
●
For
an OMP, AMBC, AMP, or IMBC the notional amount is equal to 1.
If an Index Option is uncapped, we
do not use the OMC.
Interest rate
–The interest rate is used to calculate the present value of the strike price from the next Term End Date to the time of calculation.
We use interest rates consistent with market pricing of options.
Time remaining
– This is equivalent to the portion of time remaining during the Term. It is equal to the number of days in the Term from the Term
End Date to the time of the calculation divided by the Term length.
Volatility
– The volatility of an Index as approximated using observed option prices by a market source. The volatility is used in determining
the likelihood and expected amount that the Index Value will differ from the strike price on the next Index Anniversary. As volatility
increases, the value of call and put options generally increase. We use volatility consistent with market pricing of options.

INDEX PERFORMANCE STRATEGY 1-YEAR TERM WITH 10% BUFFER USING S&P 500®
INDEX
Assume you purchase a Contract and
allocate your total initial Purchase Payment of $10,000 to the Index Option for the Index Performance Strategy 1-year Term with 10% Buffer
using S&P 500®
Index. On the Term Start Date the Index Option Base is $10,000, the Cap is 12%, and the Index Value is 1,000. Please
note that these examples may differ from your actual results due to a variety of market factors.
On the Term Start Date we calculate
the beginning Proxy Value as follows.
Beginning Proxy Value = AMC –
OMC – OMP = 5.10% – 0.66% – 3.37% = 1.06%
Assume the Index Value increased
to 1,010 by the end of month one. We calculate the current Proxy Value as follows:

Value = AMC – OMC – OMP = 5.41% – 0.72% – 2.83% = 1.86%
In this example the Index Value increased
since the Term Start Date, which generally increases the Proxy Value. We calculate the Daily Adjustment and Index Option Value as follows.
Daily Adjustment
= [(a) change in Proxy Value + (b) proxy interest] x Index Option Base:
(a)
change
in Proxy Value = (current Proxy Value – beginning Proxy Value) = (1.86% - 1.06%) = 0.80%
(b)

Index Option Value
= Index Option Base + Daily Adjustment = $10,000.00 + $89.16 = $10,089.16
End of month one with
changes to Proxy Value inputs
Proxy Value inputs can result in
a negative Daily Adjustment even with a positive return in the Index. As in the previous example, assume the Index Value increased to
1,010 by the end of month one. In addition, assume changes in volatility, interest rates, and dividend yields impact the value of the
derivatives. We calculate the current Proxy Value as follows:
Current Proxy Value = AMC –
OMC – OMP = 6.37% – 2.23% – 3.50% = 0.63%
In this example the Index Value increased
since the Term Start Date, which generally increases the Proxy Value. Changes to inputs for valuing derivatives decreased the Proxy Value
despite the positive Index return. We calculate the Daily Adjustment and Index Option Value as follows.
Daily Adjustment
= [(a) change in Proxy Value + (b) proxy interest] x Index Option Base:
(a)
change
in Proxy Value = (current Proxy Value – beginning Proxy Value) = (0.63% - 1.06%) = -0.43%

Index Option Value

Assume the Index Value decreased
to 950 by the end of month three. We calculate the current Proxy Value as follows:
Current Proxy Value = AMC –
OMC – OMP = 2.50% – 0.12% – 3.99% = -1.61%
In this example the Index Value decreased,
which generally decreases the Proxy Value. We calculate the Daily Adjustment and Index Option Value as follows.
Daily Adjustment

allocate your total initial Purchase Payment of $10,000 to the Index Option with the Index Dual Precision Strategy 1-year Term with 10%
Buffer using S&P 500®
Index. On the Term Start Date the Index Option Base is $10,000, the Trigger Rate is 7%, and the Index Value is 1,000. Please
note that these examples may differ from your actual results due to a variety of market factors.
On the Term Start Date we calculate
the beginning Proxy Value as follows.
Beginning Proxy Value = (Trigger
Rate x IMBC) – OMP = (7% x 65.25%) – 3.37% = 1.19%
Assume the Index Value increased
to 1,100 by the end of month six. We calculate the current Proxy Value as follows.
Current Proxy Value = (Trigger Rate
x IMBC) – OMP = (7% x 92.36%) – 0.36% = 6.11%
We calculate the Daily Adjustment
and Index Option Value as follows.
Daily Adjustment
= [(a) change in Proxy Value + (b) proxy interest] x Index Option Base:
(a)
change
in Proxy Value = (current Proxy Value – beginning Proxy Value) = (6.11% - 1.19%) = 4.91%
(b)
proxy
interest = beginning Proxy Value x (1 - Time remaining) = 1.19% x (1 - 0.50) = 0.60%
=
[(a)
4.91% + (b) 0.60%] x $10,000 = $550.83
Index Option Value
= Index Option Base + Daily Adjustment = $10,000.00 + $550.83 = $10,550.83
Now instead, assume the Index Value
decreased to 900 by the end of month six. We calculate the current Proxy Value as follows.
Current Proxy Value = (Trigger Rate
x IMBC) – OMP = (7% x 44.70%) – 4.93% = -1.80%
We calculate the Daily Adjustment
and Index Option Value as follows.
Daily Adjustment
= [(a) change in Proxy Value + (b) proxy interest] x Index Option Base:
(a)
change
in Proxy Value = (current Proxy Value – beginning Proxy Value) = (-1.80% - 1.19%) = -2.99%
(b)
proxy
interest = beginning Proxy Value x (1 - Time remaining) = 1.19% x (1 - 0.50) = 0.60%
=
[(a)
-2.99% + (b) 0.60%] x $10,000 = -$239.44
Index Option Value
= Index Option Base + Daily Adjustment = $10,000.00 - $239.44 = $9,760.56

EXAMPLE:
INDEX PROTECTION STRATEGY WITH TRIGGER RATE 1-YEAR TERM USING THE S&P 500®
INDEX
Assume you purchase a Contract and
allocate your total initial Purchase Payment of $10,000 to the Index Option with the Index Protection Strategy with Trigger Rate using
S&P 500®
Index. On the Term Start Date the Index Option Base is $10,000, the Trigger Rate is 3% and the Index Value is 1,000. Please
note that these examples may differ from your actual results due to a variety of market factors.
On the Term Start Date we calculate
the beginning Proxy Value as follows.
Beginning Proxy Value = Trigger
Rate x AMBC = (3% x 42.32%) = 1.27%
Assume the Index Value increased
to 1,100 by the end of month six. We calculate the current Proxy Value as follows.
Current Proxy Value = Trigger Rate
x AMBC = (3% x 77.60%) = 2.33%
We calculate the Daily Adjustment
and Index Option Value as follows.
Daily Adjustment
= [(a) change in Proxy Value + (b) proxy interest] x Index Option Base:
(a)
change
in Proxy Value = (current Proxy Value – beginning Proxy Value) = (2.33% - 1.27%) = 1.06%
(b)
proxy
interest = beginning Proxy Value x (1 - Time remaining) = 1.27% x (1 – 0.5) = 0.63%
=
[(a)
1.06% + (b) 0.63%] x $10,000 = $169.34
Index Option Value
= Index Option Base + Daily Adjustment = $10,000.00 + $169.34 = $10,169.34
Now instead, assume the Index Value
decreased to 900 by the end of month six. We calculate the current Proxy Value as follows.
Current Proxy Value = Trigger Rate
x AMBC = (3% x 12.96%) = 0.39%
We calculate the Daily Adjustment
and Index Option Value as follows.
Daily Adjustment
= [(a) change in Proxy Value + (b) proxy interest] x Index Option Base:
(a)
change
in Proxy Value = (current Proxy Value – beginning Proxy Value) = (0.39% - 1.27%) = -0.88%
(b)
proxy
interest = beginning Proxy Value x (1 - Time remaining) = 1.27% x (1 - 0.5) = 0.63%
Because the negative change in Proxy
Value is greater than the proxy interest, we floor the Daily Adjustment at $0.00.
Index Option Value
= Index Option Base + Daily Adjustment = $10,000.00 + $0.00 = $10,000.00

30. Indemnification
Indemnification provision, as required by the ’33 Act, Rule 484
The Bylaws of the Insurance Company provide:
ARTICLE XI. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES
SECTION 1. RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION:
| (a) |
Subject to the conditions of this Article and any
conditions or limitations imposed by applicable law, the Corporation shall indemnify any employee, director or officer of the Corporation
(an "Indemnified Person") who was, is, or in the sole opinion of the Corporation, may reasonably become a party to or otherwise involved
in any Proceeding by reason of the fact that such Indemnified Person is or was: |
| |
(i) |
a director of the Corporation; or |
| |
(ii) |
acting in the course and scope of his or her duties as an officer
or employee of the Corporation; or |
| |
(iii) |
rendering Professional Services at the request of and for the
benefit of the Corporation; or |
| |
(iv) |
serving at the request of the Corporation as an officer, director,
fiduciary or member of another corporation, association, committee, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other
enterprise (an "Outside Organization"). |
| (b) |
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no officer, director
or employee shall be indemnified pursuant to these bylaws under the following circumstances: |
| |
(i) |
in connection with a Proceeding initiated by such person, in
his or her own personal capacity, unless such initiation was authorized by the Board of Directors; |
| |
(ii) |
if a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines that
any indemnification hereunder is unlawful; |
| |
(iii) |
for acts or omissions involving intentional misconduct or knowing
and culpable violation of law; |
| |
(iv) |
for acts or omissions that the Indemnified Person believes to
be contrary to the best interests of the Corporation or its shareholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the part of the
Indemnified Person; |
| |
(v) |
for any transaction for which the Indemnified Person derived
an improper personal benefit; |
| |
(vi) |
for acts or omissions that show a reckless disregard for the
Indemnified Person's duty to the Corporation or its shareholders in circumstances in which the Indemnified Person was aware or should
have been aware, in the ordinary course of performing the Indemnified Person's duties, of the risk of serious injury to the Corporation
or its shareholders; |
| |
(vii) |
for acts or omissions that constitute an unexcused pattern of
inattention that amounts to an abdication of the Indemnified Person's duties to the Corporation or its shareholders; |
| |
(viii) |
in circumstances where indemnification is prohibited by applicable
law; |
| |
(ix) |
in the case of service as an officer, director, fiduciary or
member of an Outside Organization, where the Indemnified Person was aware or should have been aware that the conduct in question was outside
the scope of the assignment as contemplated by the Corporation. |
| SECTION 2. SCOPE OF INDEMNIFICATION: |
| (a) |
Indemnification provided pursuant to Section 1(a)(iv)
shall be secondary and subordinate to indemnification or insurance provided to an Indemnified Person by an Outside Organization or other
source, if any. |
| (b) |
Indemnification shall apply to all reasonable expenses,
liability and losses, actually incurred or suffered by an Indemnified Person in connection with a Proceeding, including without limitation,
attorneys' fees and any expenses of establishing a right to indemnification or advancement under this article, judgments, fines, ERISA
excise taxes or penalties, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in
connection with or in respect of such expense, liability and loss. |
| (c) |
Such indemnification shall continue as to any Indemnified
Person who has ceased to be an employee, director or officer of the Corporation and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, estate,
executors and administrators. |
| SECTION 3. DEFINITIONS: |
| (a) |
"Corporation" for the purpose of Article XI shall
mean Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America and all of its subsidiaries. |
| (b) |
"Proceeding" shall mean any threatened, pending,
or completed action, suit or proceeding whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise, including actions by or in
the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor. |
| (c) |
"Professional Services" shall mean services rendered
pursuant to (i) a professional actuarial designation, (ii) a license to engage in the practice of law issued by a State Bar Institution
or (iii) a Certified Public Accountant designation issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. |

Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted for directors and officers or controlling persons of the Insurance Company pursuant to the foregoing, or otherwise,
the Insurance Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other
than the payment by the Insurance Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Insurance Company
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection
with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed
in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. |
