For Contracts sold on or after July 1, 2024, Ohio requires us to provide interim values that are the greater of the pro rata interim values described in this prospectus or the interim values that would result from a calculation utilizing a hypothetical portfolio of assets designed to replicate the performance of the Index Account Option at the end of the term. We will begin administering this "greater of" calculation on or about May 1, 2025. For any Owners with Contracts sold on or after July 1, 2024 who transact on interim values (including partial or total withdrawals from the Contract, withdrawals of the Guaranteed Annual Withdrawal Amount under the +Income GMWB or +Income GMWB with Joint Option, automatic withdrawals, free looks, required minimum distributions ("RMD"), income payments, deductions of the GMWB Charge, and the Contract Value element of death benefit payments) prior to May 1, 2025, we will retroactively apply the "greater of" calculation to those transactions on or about May 1, 2025. In no event will any Contract Owner ever receive an interim value lower than the interim values described in this prospectus. In connection with this requirement, beginning on July 1, 2024, the MSCI KLD 400 Index will be restricted for any new business sold in Ohio with an application sign date of July 1, 2024 or after.
