SECTION 4 – OPERATION OF THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
| 4.1. | GENERAL. The assets supporting our obligations under this Annuity may be held in various accounts, depending on the obligation being supported. Assets supporting Annuity guarantees are held in our general account. Assets supporting Participant account values are held in the Separate Account, a separate account established under the laws of the State of Connecticut. |
| 4.2. | SEPARATE ACCOUNT. We are the legal owner of assets in the Separate Account. Income, gains and losses, whether or not realized, from assets allocated to the Separate Account, are credited to or charged against the Separate Account in accordance with the terms of the annuities supported by such assets without regard to Our other income, gains or losses or to the income, gains or losses in any other of Our separate accounts. We will maintain assets in the Separate Account with a total market value at least equal to the reserve and other liabilities We must maintain in relation to the obligations supported by such assets. These assets may only be charged with liabilities that arise from such obligations. The Separate Account also holds assets of other contracts issued by Us with values and benefits that vary according to the investment performance of the Separate Account. |
The Separate Account is registered with the Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a unit investment trust, which is a type of investment company. This does not involve any supervision by the Commission of the investment policies, management or practices of the Separate Account.
The Separate Account consists of Sub-accounts. Sub-accounts may invest in underlying mutual funds or portfolios. We reserve the right to change the investment policy of any or all Sub-accounts, add Sub-accounts, eliminate Sub-accounts, combine Sub-accounts, limit access to a Sub-account or to substitute underlying mutual funds or portfolios of underlying mutual funds, subject to any required regulatory approvals. Values and benefits based on deposits to the Sub-accounts will vary with the investment performance of the underlying mutual fund or fund portfolios, as applicable. We do not guarantee the investment results of the Separate Account or any Sub-account.
We may from time to time change material features of, or close, certain Separate Accounts or Sub-accounts. Any changes will be made only if permitted by applicable law and regulations. Also, when required by law, we will obtain the approval of Investors and Participants of the changes and the approval of any appropriate regulatory authority.
B[For Plans subject to the fiduciary provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, We will exercise our rights under this Section to substitute underlying portfolios only with the consent of the Plan fiduciary.]
GA-2020-IA-REG
5
The amount of our obligations in relation to allocations to the Sub-accounts is based on the investment performance of the Sub-accounts. However, the guarantees provided under the Target Guaranteed Withdrawal Rider are our general corporate obligations.
| 4.3 | UNITS AND UNIT VALUE. The value of this Agreement’s interest in a Sub-account is measured in terms of Units of the applicable Sub-account. You are credited Units in each Sub-account in which you invest. The number of Units credited to You is determined by dividing each Deposit made on Your behalf to a Sub-account by the applicable Unit Value for the Business Day on which the Deposit is received by Us in Good Order. We determine the value of a Unit each Business Day by adding up the value of all assets held in the Sub-account, subtracting any liabilities, expenses and charges, and dividing the result by the number of units outstanding. |
| 4.4 | EXPENSES. We will deduct from the Separate Account the Expenses set forth on the Expense Schedule. |
| 4.5 | VOTING RIGHTS. Certain Separate Accounts hold securities that have voting rights. We normally exercise these rights. However, we reserve the right to solicit You for instruction as to how to vote some or all of the securities in these accounts. |

SECTION 2. GUARANTEED WITHDRAWALS
2.1. Guaranteed Withdrawals. We guarantee that Guaranteed Withdrawals may be taken each Year, in an amount equal to the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount], starting at the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date until the Participant’s death. B[If the Spousal Benefit is elected, We guarantee that Guaranteed Withdrawals may be taken each Year after the Participant’s death until the Eligible Spouse’s death as described in Section 5 of this Rider.]
2.2. Guaranteed Withdrawals When the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value Reaches Zero. Subject to Section 8, if the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value is $0.00 and the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount]is greater than $0.00 on or after the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, We will make one or more payments each Year from Our general account that in the aggregate with any Guaranteed Withdrawal taken during such Year from an Eligible Investment shall equal the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount]. Any payment from Our general account will be made in one or more payments and:
| a. | credited to a Plan investment option other than an Eligible Investment for the benefit of the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse]; or |
| b. | paid as a Distribution |
in accordance with the direction We receive. However, in the Year We first make payments from Our general account, if the aggregate amount of the payments expected to be made from Our general account during that Year is less than the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount], then We reserve the right to make a single payment of such aggregate amount.
Also, no subsequent Deposits or Transfers to an Eligible Investment will be permitted.
SECTION 3. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE INCOME BASE AND A[ANNUAL GUARANTEED WITHDRAWAL AMOUNT] AFTER THE GUARANTEED WITHDRAWAL LOCK-IN DATE
3.1. Income Base and A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] Increased following Deposits or Transfers. If a Deposit or Transfer is allocated to an Eligible Investment after the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, the Income Base will increase by the initial amount of such Deposit or Transfer.
If the Income Base is increased by a Deposit or Transfer, then the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] immediately will increase by an amount equal to the product of (i) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Percentage and (ii) the amount of the increase in the Income Base. If such Deposit or Transfer is made in the Year in which the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date is elected and is not allocated on the Participant’s Birthday, then solely in the Year such Deposit or Transfer is allocated the amount described in the preceding sentence shall be reduced by the percentage equivalent to the ratio of (i) the number of days in the Year since the Participant’s last Birthday and (ii) 365 days.
The additional amount of the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] may, but is not required to, be taken as a Guaranteed Withdrawal in the Year in which the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] is increased or later Years.
If an Excess Withdrawal has been taken in the Year of such Deposit or Transfer, any increase in the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] will not be effective until the following Year. If the entire A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] is not taken as a Withdrawal within any Year, the portion of the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] not taken as a Withdrawal shall expire and will not increase the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] for any subsequent Year.
GA-2020-TGWB-REG-2014

3.2. Income Base and A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] Increased following Step-Up. On each of the Participant’s Birthdays after the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, the Income Base may be increased by any Step-Up Amount. If the Income Base is increased by the Step-Up Amount, then the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] immediately will increase by the amount equal to the product of (a) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Percentage, and (b) the amount of the increase in the Income Base. The additional amount may, but is not required to, be taken as a Guaranteed Withdrawal in the Year in which the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] is increased. If the entire A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] is not taken as a Withdrawal within any Year, the portion of the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] not taken as a Withdrawal shall expire and will not increase the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] for any subsequent Year.
If the Income Base will be increased by the Step-Up Amount and if We have not provided the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] with a notice pursuant to Section 7.1 to the effect that a higher Guarantee Fee will apply to subsequent Deposits or Transfers, then the Income Base will be increased automatically.
If the Income Base will be increased by the Step-Up Amount and if We have provided the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] with a notice pursuant to Section 7.1 to the effect that a higher Guarantee Fee will apply to subsequent Deposits and Transfers, then the Income Base will be increased by the amount of the Step-Up Amount and the higher Guarantee Fee will apply to the entire Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value, unless the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] affirmatively elects otherwise pursuant to the next paragraph.
We will provide D[ninety (90)] days notice to the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] stating his or her eligibility for the increase in the Income Base and that by accepting the Step-Up Amount he or she will pay an increased Guarantee Fee on the entire Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value. Unless We are notified in writing by the end of such D[ninety (90)] day period that the Step-Up Amount and any resulting increase in the Guarantee Fee is rejected, the Step-Up Amount and the increased Guarantee Fee shall be considered accepted. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Rider, during such D[ninety (90)] day period, We may require a direction for a Withdrawal or Transfer from an Eligible Investment that will result in a decrease in the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value must also specify whether the increased Guarantee Fee is accepted or rejected.
The rejection of a Step-Up Amount does not affect the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] eligibility for subsequent Step-Up Amounts.
3.3. Income Base and A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] Decreased By Excess Withdrawals. If an Excess Withdrawal is taken in a Year, the Income Base will be decreased by the percentage equivalent to the ratio of (i) the amount of the Excess Withdrawal and (ii) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value as of the Valuation Date of the Excess Withdrawal without reduction for the amount of the Excess Withdrawal.
If an Excess Withdrawal reduces the Income Base, then the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] immediately will decrease by the amount equal to the product of (a) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Percentage, and (b) the amount of the decrease in the Income Base.
SECTION 4. WITHDRAWALS
4.1. Withdrawals Not Required. Withdrawals are not required at any time other than to comply with the terms of the Plan or the Code.
4.2. Frequency of Withdrawals. Withdrawals may be taken in such amounts and frequency as permitted under the Plan and the Agreement.

B[SECTION 5. SPOUSAL BENEFIT]
B[If the Spouse is the Participant’s E[sole] beneficiary under the Plan on the date the Participant’s Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date is elected, as part of that election an irrevocable election may also be made to have the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] continue to be available after the Participant’s death as Guaranteed Withdrawals during the life of the Spouse. The A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] will not be available after the Participant’s death if, on the date of the Participant’s death:
| a. | the Spouse on the date of such election has died; |
| b. | the Participant’s Spouse on the date of such election is no longer the Participant’s Spouse; or |
| c. | the Spouse is not the Participant’s beneficiary under the Plan. |
The election under this Section 5.1 may not be made prior to the date both the Participant and the Spouse have attained age C[55]. Upon the Eligible Spouse’s death, any A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] will cease to be available and any Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value shall be payable pursuant to Section 6.1 of this Rider.
Any amounts remaining in the Plan following the death of the Participant must be distributed in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the Code. Where the Spouse is the Participant’s civil union partner, provisions of the Code or the Plan may prevent the Spouse from remaining in the Plan or may affect the form and timing of distributions from the Plan.]
SECTION 6. PAYMENTS UPON DEATH
6.1. Eligible Investments. Except as provided in Section 6.2, for each Eligible Investment, upon the later of the death of the Participant B[or, if applicable, the Eligible Spouse,] Our guarantees under this Rider shall expire with no further value, and the value of the Eligible Investment, determined in accordance with the documents governing such Eligible Investment, will be paid as provided in the Plan.
6.2. Spousal Beneficiary. If the Participant dies B[before his or her Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, or after his or her Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, but without having elected the Spousal Benefit, ] and if the Spouse is the Participant’s beneficiary under the terms of the Plan on the date of the Participant’s death, then, subject to the terms of the Plan and the Code, the amounts invested in Eligible Investments for the behalf of such surviving Spouse may remain invested in one or more Eligible Investments subject to the following.
All of Our guarantees under this Rider for the benefit of the Participant immediately shall expire with no value and the A&B[Roll-Up Value and] B[Highest Birthday Value] shall be reset to zero. The value of any amounts currently invested in Eligible Investments for the benefit of the surviving Spouse, in accordance with the documents governing such Eligible Investments shall be deemed a new Deposit to such Eligible Investments for the benefit of the surviving Spouse, creating a new Start Date. On this new Start Date, the Income Base shall be reset to equal the then current Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value. Thereafter, for purposes of this Rider only, the Spouse shall have the rights of a “Participant” and the Spouse’s date of birth shall be used to determine the Birthday.
Any amounts remaining in the Plan following the death of the Participant must be distributed in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the Code. Where the Spouse is the Participant’s civil union, provisions of the Code or the Plan may prevent the Spouse from remaining in the Plan or may affect the form and timing of distributions from the Plan.

SECTION 7. FEES.
7.1. Guarantee Fee. The Guarantee Fee is the product of (i) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value and (ii) the current annual rate not to exceed the maximum annual rate of G[1.50%].
We deduct the Guarantee Fee from the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] interest in each Eligible Investment to determine the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value.
We reserve the right to change the Guarantee Fee by providing D[ninety (90)] days advance written notice of such change. If We make such a change, the changed Guarantee Fee will only apply to Deposits or Transfers allocated to an Eligible Investment on and after the effective date of such change, except as provided in Section 3.2 of this Rider.
7.2. Investment Management Fees and Expenses. Eligible Investments impose fees and expenses. Those fees and expenses are deducted from the value of Eligible Investments in accordance with the documents governing the Eligible Investments.
7.3. Agreement-related Expenses. If the Agreement’s Expense Schedule provides for the deduction of any expenses or charges described in the Expense Schedule, We deduct those expenses or charges from the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] interest in the Eligible Investments.
SECTION 8. TERMINATION OR DISCONTINUANCE
8.1. Termination of Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Benefit. No further benefits will be provided to the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] under this Rider if:

| b. | Pursuant to the terms of the Plan or the Code, the Plan is required to distribute the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] entire interest in the Plan. |
8.2. Plan Termination or Discontinuance of Deposits and Transfers. You may elect at any time to not permit additional allocations to Eligible Investments. Any such election shall not affect Our guarantees with regard to amounts allocated to Eligible Investments on the date You make such election unless You make the election in the next sentence. Under such terms as We may require, You may discontinue this Rider at any time and direct Us to transfer the market value of amounts allocated to Eligible Investments for the benefit of each Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] to another Plan investment option selected by You. In such event, each Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Guaranteed Withdrawal Account will be cancelled and no further benefits will be provided to any Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] under this Rider.
8.3. PRIAC Termination. We reserve the right in Our sole judgment (i) to cease accepting at any time amounts for allocations to an Eligible Investment, and (ii) to not permit exchanges between Eligible Investments. We will exercise these rights in the circumstances when:
| (a) | Due to economic environment, capital markets, legal or regulatory framework or strategic business priorities of PRIAC, we determined that our offering Our guarantees under this Rider is no longer commercially practical or desirable, or |
| (b) | We determine that the Eligible Investments have materially changed their holdings, strategies, investment policies or risk/return characteristics, or |
| (c) | In connection with the termination or discontinuance of allocations to Eligible Investments by person authorized to do so, on behalf of the Plan. |
GA-2020-TGWB-REG-2014

Our exercise of this right shall not affect Our guarantees with regard to amounts allocated to Eligible Investments on the effective date of Our ceasing to accept such amounts, subject to adjustments to the Guarantee Fee pursuant to Section 7.1 and the terms of this Rider.
SECTION 9. PORTABILITY OF OUR GUARANTEES
If a Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] who has amounts allocated to an Eligible Investment for his or her benefit, is eligible to receive a Distribution from the Plan, which is an “eligible rollover distribution” within the meaning of Section 402(f)(2) of the Code, then subject to availability, the Participant or B[or Eligible Spousewill have] the right to transfer all or a part of Our guarantees under this Rider to one or more contracts as described below.
If a Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value consists of either a Roth retirement plan account or a traditional retirement plan account (but not both), and if such amount is transferred to a Roth IRA contract or a traditional IRA contract, respectively, then Our guarantees under such contract will be determined in accordance with (a) and (b) below.
If a Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value consists of both a Roth retirement plan account and traditional retirement plan account, and if an amount from each such retirement account is transferred to a Roth IRA contract or a traditional IRA contract, respectively, then Our guarantees will be separately determined under each contract, in accordance with (c) below.
| a. | If the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] transfers directly to such contract all of his or her Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value under this Rider, then on the date of such transfer: |
| i. | if the transfer occurs before the Participant’s Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, the H[“highest birthday value” under such contract shall be the Highest Birthday Value]under this Rider; and |
| ii. | if the transfer occurs on or after the Participant’s Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, the “income base” and A[ “annual guaranteed withdrawal amount”] under such contract shall be the Income Base and A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount], respectively; or |
| b. | If the entire Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value is not transferred directly, the Participant B[or the Eligible Spouse] may make a one-time election to transfer directly a portion of his or her Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value to such contract. On the date of the transfer, the H[“highest birthday value” under such contract shall be the Highest Birthday Value] under this Rider, and the “income base” and A[ “annual guaranteed withdrawal amount”] under such contract shall be the Income Base and A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount], respectively, in all cases reduced by the percentage equivalent to the ratio of (i) the amount of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value remaining after the transfer and (ii) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value, all determined on the Valuation Date of such transfer. |
| c. | If a Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value consists of a Roth retirement plan account and a traditional retirement plan account, and he or she transfers directly all of his or her Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value under this Rider, or makes a one-time election to transfer directly a portion of his or her Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value, to each such contract, as applicable, then on the date of such transfers: |

SECTION 10. INVESTMENTS
As a condition of receiving Our guarantees under this Rider We require the use of one or more of the Eligible Investments We specify for amounts directed for investment under the Agreement. We reserve the right to change or eliminate Eligible Investments or such asset allocation models, and not accept amounts for allocation to an Eligible Investment. We will exercise this right in circumstances, including but not limited to when the Eligible Investment has materially changed their holdings, strategies, investment policies, or risk/return characteristics. We also reserve the right to not permit exchanges between Eligible Investments. We may exercise this right with respect to an Eligible Investment if We are no longer accepting amounts for allocation into the Eligible Investment.
Our exercising these rights shall apply to all Agreements in the same class of business as the Agreement. Our exercise of these rights shall not affect Our guarantees with regard to Guaranteed Withdrawal Accounts established under this Rider on the effective date of Our ceasing to accept such amounts for allocation to one or more Eligible Investments.
SECTION 11. LIMITATIONS
We reserve the right to not accept amounts for allocation to an Eligible Investment:
| a. | for D[ninety (90)] days after the date amounts are allocated from the same Eligible Investment, if the transaction is a Rollover or an exchange from another Plan investment option; |
| b. | if the amount allocated is a lump sum repayment of a loan made by the Plan to the Participant; |
| c. | if the total amount allocated to all Eligible Investments in any year is greater than C[$1,000,000] or the total amount of all allocations to all Eligible Investments is greater than C[$2,000,000]; |
| d. | if the amount allocated is for the benefit of any individual who is a Participant’s beneficiary under the Plan, but ineligible for distribution of the Participant’s interest under the Plan in accordance with Section 401(a)(9)(B)(iv) of the Code; or |

SECTION 12. MISCELLANEOUS
12.1. Direction. Notwithstanding anything in this Rider to the contrary, all directions required to be given to Us under this Rider shall be given by the person authorized to give such direction under the terms of the Plan. We shall be under no obligation to act until We receive such direction.
12.2. Small Benefits. We shall make a payment equal to the sum of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value and the net actuarial value of Our guarantee to the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] under this Rider if:
| a. | the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] at the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date is less than any minimum A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] required by Us in this Rider; or |
| b. | the Plan requires the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Plan account balance to be distributed without the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] consent, other than distributions intended to comply with requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code or regulations thereunder, and such amount is not transferred directly to a contract in accordance with Section 9 of this Rider. |
In such event, the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Guaranteed Withdrawal Account will be cancelled and no further benefits will be provided to the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] under this Rider.
12.3. Required Minimum Distributions. As of the last Valuation Date in each calendar year I[following the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date / beginning with the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date] (each the “RMD Calculation Date”), We will determine, following Our established and published procedures that have been communicated to You, the amount a Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] would need to take as a Withdrawal to comply with the requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code applicable to distributions over the life of the Participant, life of a designated beneficiary, or over the lives of the Participant and a designated beneficiary, during the next following calendar year (each the “RMD Payment Year”).
Each such amount shall be based on the assumption that J[the sum of] the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value J[and the net actuarial value of Our guarantees under this Rider to the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse]] is the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] entire account balance under the Plan. If the required minimum distribution (RMD) amount determined using these assumptions exceeds the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] on the RMD Calculation Date, then the difference between such RMD amount and the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] shall be the “RMD Value.” Withdrawals taken in the RMD Payment Year shall be treated as Excess Withdrawals only to the extent they exceed the sum of the Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount and the RMD Value. Any RMD Value remaining at the end of each RMD Payment Year shall expire and not increase the RMD Value in any subsequent RMD Payment Year.
12.4. Misstatements and Corrections. For purposes of this Rider, if We discover that the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] age or spousal status pertaining to Our guarantees under this Rider was misstated, or We discover a clerical error, We will adjust the benefit and any fees on an actuarially equivalent basis.

SECTION 4 – OPERATION OF THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
| 4.1. | GENERAL. The assets supporting our obligations under this Annuity may be held in various accounts, depending on the obligation being supported. Assets supporting Annuity guarantees are held in our general account. Assets supporting Participant account values are held in the Separate Account, a separate account established under the laws of the State of Connecticut. |
| 4.2. | SEPARATE ACCOUNT. We are the legal owner of assets in the Separate Account. Income, gains and losses, whether or not realized, from assets allocated to the Separate Account, are credited to or charged against the Separate Account in accordance with the terms of the annuities supported by such assets without regard to Our other income, gains or losses or to the income, gains or losses in any other of Our separate accounts. We will maintain assets in the Separate Account with a total market value at least equal to the reserve and other liabilities We must maintain in relation to the obligations supported by such assets. These assets may only be charged with liabilities that arise from such obligations. The Separate Account also holds assets of other contracts issued by Us with values and benefits that vary according to the investment performance of the Separate Account. |
The Separate Account is registered with the Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a unit investment trust, which is a type of investment company. This does not involve any supervision by the Commission of the investment policies, management or practices of the Separate Account.
The Separate Account consists of Sub-accounts. Sub-accounts may invest in underlying mutual funds or portfolios. We reserve the right to change the investment policy of any or all Sub-accounts, add Sub-accounts, eliminate Sub-accounts, combine Sub-accounts, limit access to a Sub-account or to substitute underlying mutual funds or portfolios of underlying mutual funds, subject to any required regulatory approvals. Values and benefits based on deposits to the Sub-accounts will vary with the investment performance of the underlying mutual fund or fund portfolios, as applicable. We do not guarantee the investment results of the Separate Account or any Sub-account.
We may from time to time change material features of, or close, certain Separate Accounts or Sub-accounts. Any changes will be made only if permitted by applicable law and regulations. Also, when required by law, we will obtain the approval of Investors and Participants of the changes and the approval of any appropriate regulatory authority.
B[For Plans subject to the fiduciary provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, We will exercise our rights under this Section to substitute underlying portfolios only with the consent of the Plan fiduciary.]
GA-2060-IA-TGWB-2014
6
The amount of our obligations in relation to allocations to the Sub-accounts is based on the investment performance of the Sub-accounts. However, the guarantees provided under the Target Guaranteed Withdrawal Rider are our general corporate obligations.
| 4.3 | UNITS AND UNIT VALUE. The value of this Agreement’s interest in a Sub-account is measured in terms of Units of the applicable Sub-account. You are credited Units in each Sub-account in which you invest. The number of Units credited to You is determined by dividing each Deposit made on Your behalf to a Sub-account by the applicable Unit Value for the Business Day on which the Deposit is received by Us in Good Order. We determine the value of a Unit each Business Day by adding up the value of all assets held in the Sub-account, subtracting any liabilities, expenses and charges, and dividing the result by the number of units outstanding. |
| 4.4 | EXPENSES. We will deduct from the Separate Account the Expenses set forth on the Expense Schedule. |
| 4.5 | VOTING RIGHTS. Certain Separate Accounts hold securities that have voting rights. We normally exercise these rights. However, we reserve the right to solicit You for instruction as to how to vote some or all of the securities in these accounts. |

2.2. Guaranteed Withdrawals When the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value Reaches Zero. Subject to Section 8, if the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value is $0.00 and the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount]is greater than $0.00 on or after the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, We will make one or more payments each Year from Our general account that in the aggregate with any Guaranteed Withdrawal taken during such Year from an Eligible Investment shall equal the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount]. Any payment from Our general account will be made in one or more payments and:
| a. | credited to a Plan investment option other than an Eligible Investment for the benefit of the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse]; or |
| b. | paid as a Distribution |
in accordance with the direction We receive. However, in the Year We first make payments from Our general account, if the aggregate amount of the payments expected to be made from Our general account during that Year is less than the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount], then We reserve the right to make a single payment of such aggregate amount.
Also, no subsequent Deposits or Transfers to an Eligible Investment will be permitted.
SECTION 3. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE INCOME BASE AND A[ANNUAL GUARANTEED WITHDRAWAL AMOUNT] AFTER THE GUARANTEED WITHDRAWAL LOCK-IN DATE
3.1. Income Base and A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] Increased following Deposits or Transfers. If a Deposit or Transfer is allocated to an Eligible Investment after the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, the Income Base will increase by the initial amount of such Deposit or Transfer.
If the Income Base is increased by a Deposit or Transfer, then the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] immediately will increase by an amount equal to the product of (i) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Percentage and (ii) the amount of the increase in the Income Base. If such Deposit or Transfer is made in the Year in which the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date is elected and is not allocated on the Participant’s Birthday, then solely in the Year such Deposit or Transfer is allocated the amount described in the preceding sentence shall be reduced by the percentage equivalent to the ratio of (i) the number of days in the Year since the Participant’s last Birthday and (ii) 365 days.
The additional amount of the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] may, but is not required to, be taken as a Guaranteed Withdrawal in the Year in which the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] is increased or later Years.
If an Excess Withdrawal has been taken in the Year of such Deposit or Transfer, any increase in the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] will not be effective until the following Year. If the entire A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] is not taken as a Withdrawal within any Year, the portion of the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] not taken as a Withdrawal shall expire and will not increase the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] for any subsequent Year.
3.2. Income Base and A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] Increased following Step-Up. On each of the Participant’s Birthdays after the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, the Income Base may be increased by any Step-Up Amount. If the Income Base is increased by the Step-Up Amount, then the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] immediately will increase by the amount equal to the product of (a) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Percentage, and (b) the amount of the increase in the Income Base. The additional amount may, but is not required to, be taken as a Guaranteed Withdrawal in the Year in which the A[Annual
GA-2060-TGWB-2014
5
Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] is increased. If the entire A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] is not taken as a Withdrawal within any Year, the portion of the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] not taken as a Withdrawal shall expire and will not increase the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] for any subsequent Year.
If the Income Base will be increased by the Step-Up Amount and if We have not provided the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] with a notice pursuant to Section 7.1 to the effect that a higher Guarantee Fee will apply to subsequent Deposits or Transfers, then the Income Base will be increased automatically.
If the Income Base will be increased by the Step-Up Amount and if We have provided the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] with a notice pursuant to Section 7.1 to the effect that a higher Guarantee Fee will apply to subsequent Deposits and Transfers, then the Income Base will be increased by the amount of the Step-Up Amount and the higher Guarantee Fee will apply to the entire Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value, unless the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] affirmatively elects otherwise pursuant to the next paragraph.
We will provide D[ninety (90)] days notice to the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] stating his or her eligibility for the increase in the Income Base and that by accepting the Step-Up Amount he or she will pay an increased Guarantee Fee on the entire Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value. Unless We are notified in writing by the end of such D[ninety (90)] day period that the Step-Up Amount and any resulting increase in the Guarantee Fee is rejected, the Step-Up Amount and the increased Guarantee Fee shall be considered accepted. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Rider, during such D[ninety (90)] day period, We may require a direction for a Withdrawal or Transfer from an Eligible Investment that will result in a decrease in the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value must also specify whether the increased Guarantee Fee is accepted or rejected.
The rejection of a Step-Up Amount does not affect the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] eligibility for subsequent Step-Up Amounts.
3.3. Income Base and A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] Decreased By Excess Withdrawals. If an Excess Withdrawal is taken in a Year, the Income Base will be decreased by the percentage equivalent to the ratio of (i) the amount of the Excess Withdrawal and (ii) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value as of the Valuation Date of the Excess Withdrawal without reduction for the amount of the Excess Withdrawal.
If an Excess Withdrawal reduces the Income Base, then the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] immediately will decrease by the amount equal to the product of (a) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Percentage, and (b) the amount of the decrease in the Income Base.
SECTION 4. WITHDRAWALS
4.1. Withdrawals Not Required. Withdrawals are not required at any time other than to comply with the terms of the Plan or the Code.
4.2. Frequency of Withdrawals. Withdrawals may be taken in such amounts and frequency as permitted under the Plan and the Agreement.

B[SECTION 5. SPOUSAL BENEFIT]
B[If the Spouse is the Participant’s E[sole] beneficiary under the Plan on the date the Participant’s Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date is elected, as part of that election an irrevocable election may also be made to have the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] continue to be available after the Participant’s death as Guaranteed Withdrawals during the life of the Spouse. The A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] will not be available after the Participant’s death if, on the date of the Participant’s death:
| a. | the Spouse on the date of such election has died; |
| b. | the Participant’s Spouse on the date of such election is no longer the Participant’s Spouse; or |
| c. | the Spouse is not the Participant’s beneficiary under the Plan. |
The election under this

C[55]. Upon the Eligible Spouse’s death, any A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] will cease to be available and any Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value shall be payable pursuant to Section 6.1 of this Rider.
Any amounts remaining in the Plan following the death of the Participant must be distributed in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the Code. Where the Spouse is the Participant’s civil union partner, provisions of the Code or the Plan may prevent the Spouse from remaining in the Plan or may affect the form and timing of distributions from the Plan.]
SECTION 6. PAYMENTS UPON DEATH
6.1. Eligible Investments. Except as provided in Section 6.2, for each Eligible Investment, upon the later of the death of the Participant B[or, if applicable, the Eligible Spouse,] Our guarantees under this Rider shall expire with no further value, and the value of the Eligible Investment, determined in accordance with the documents governing such Eligible Investment, will be paid as provided in the Plan.
6.2. Spousal Beneficiary. If the Participant dies B[before his or her Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, or after his or her Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, but without having elected the Spousal Benefit, ] and if the Spouse is the Participant’s beneficiary under the terms of the Plan on the date of the Participant’s death, then, subject to the terms of the Plan and the Code, the amounts invested in Eligible Investments for the behalf of such surviving Spouse may remain invested in one or more Eligible Investments subject to the following.
All of Our guarantees under this Rider for the benefit of the Participant immediately shall expire with no value and the
A&B[Roll-Up Value and] B[Highest Birthday Value] shall be reset to zero. The value of any amounts currently invested in
Eligible Investments for the benefit of the surviving Spouse, in accordance with the documents governing such Eligible Investments shall be deemed a new Deposit to such Eligible Investments for the benefit of the surviving Spouse, creating a new
Start Date. On this new Start Date, the Income Base shall be reset to equal the then current Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value. Thereafter, for purposes of this Rider only, the Spouse shall have the rights of a “Participant” and the
Spouse’s date of birth shall be used to determine the Birthday.
Any amounts remaining in the Plan following the death of the Participant must be distributed in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the Code. Where the Spouse is the Participant’s civil union partner, provisions of the Code or the Plan may prevent the Spouse from remaining in the Plan or may affect the form and timing of distributions from the Plan.

SECTION 7. FEES.
7.1. Guarantee Fee. The Guarantee Fee is the product of (i) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value and (ii) the current annual rate not to exceed the maximum annual rate of G[1.50%].
We deduct the Guarantee Fee from the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] interest in each Eligible Investment to determine the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value.
We reserve the right to change the Guarantee Fee by providing D[ninety (90)] days advance written notice of such change. If We make such a change, the changed Guarantee Fee will only apply to Deposits or Transfers allocated to an Eligible Investment on and after the effective date of such change, except as provided in Section 3.2 of this Rider.
7.2. Investment Management Fees and Expenses. Eligible Investments impose fees and expenses. Those fees and expenses are deducted from the value of Eligible Investments in accordance with the documents governing the Eligible Investments.
7.3. Agreement-related Expenses. If the Agreement’s Expense Schedule provides for the deduction of any expenses or charges described in the Expense Schedule, We deduct those expenses or charges from the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] interest in the Eligible Investments.
SECTION 8. TERMINATION OR DISCONTINUANCE
8.1. Termination of Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Benefit. No further benefits will be provided to the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] under this Rider if:
| a. | No amounts are allocated to Eligible Investments for the benefit of the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] and the Income Base equals $0.00; or |
| b. | Pursuant to the terms of the Plan or the Code, the Plan is required to distribute the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] entire interest in the Plan. |
8.2. Plan Termination or Discontinuance of Deposits and Transfers. You may elect at any time to not permit additional allocations to Eligible Investments. Any such election shall not affect Our guarantees with regard to amounts allocated to Eligible Investments on the date You make such election unless You make the election in the next sentence. Under such terms as We may require, You may discontinue this Rider at any time and direct Us to transfer the market value of amounts allocated to Eligible Investments for the benefit of each Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] to another Plan investment option selected by You. In such event, each Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Guaranteed Withdrawal Account will be cancelled and no further benefits will be provided to any Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] under this Rider.
8.3. PRIAC Termination. We reserve the right in Our sole judgment (i) to cease accepting at any time amounts for allocations to an Eligible Investment, and (ii) to not permit exchanges between Eligible Investments. We will exercise these rights in the circumstances when:
| (a) | Due to economic environment, capital markets, legal or regulatory framework or strategic business priorities of PRIAC, we determined that our offering Our guarantees under this Rider is no longer commercially practical or desirable, or |
| (b) | We determine that the Eligible Investments have materially changed their holdings, strategies, investment policies or risk/return characteristics, or |
| (c) | In connection with the termination or discontinuance of allocations to Eligible Investments by person authorized to do so, on behalf of the Plan. |
GA-2060-TGWB-2014

Our exercise of this right shall not affect Our guarantees with regard to amounts allocated to Eligible Investments on the effective date of Our ceasing to accept such amounts, subject to adjustments to the Guarantee Fee pursuant to Section 7.1 and the terms of this Rider.
SECTION 9. PORTABILITY OF OUR GUARANTEES
If a Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] who has amounts allocated to an Eligible Investment for his or her benefit, is eligible to receive a Distribution from the Plan, which is an “eligible rollover distribution” within the meaning of Section 402(f)(2) of the Code, then subject to Our receiving any applicable regulatory approvals, We shall make available to the Participant or B[or Eligible Spouse] the right to transfer all or a part of Our guarantees under this Rider to one or more contracts as described below.
If a Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value consists of either a Roth retirement plan account or a traditional retirement plan account (but not both), and if such amount is transferred to a Roth IRA contract or a traditional IRA contract, respectively, then Our guarantees under such contract will be determined in accordance with (a) and (b) below.
If a Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value consists of both a Roth retirement plan account and traditional retirement plan account, and if an amount from each such retirement account is transferred to a Roth IRA contract or a traditional IRA contract, respectively, then Our guarantees will be separately determined under each contract, in accordance with (c) below.
| a. | If the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] transfers directly to such contract all of his or her Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value under this Rider, then on the date of such transfer: |
| i. | if the transfer occurs before the Participant’s Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, the H[“highest birthday value” under such contract shall be the Highest Birthday Value]under this Rider; and |
| ii. | if the transfer occurs on or after the Participant’s Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date, the “income base” and A[ “annual guaranteed withdrawal amount”] under such contract shall be the Income Base and A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount], respectively; or |
| b. | If the entire Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value is not transferred directly, the Participant B[or the Eligible Spouse] may make a one-time election to transfer directly a portion of his or her Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value to such contract. On the date of the transfer, the H[“highest birthday value” under such contract shall be the Highest Birthday Value] under this Rider, and the “income base” and A[ “annual guaranteed withdrawal amount”] under such contract shall be the Income Base and A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount], respectively, in all cases reduced by the percentage equivalent to the ratio of (i) the amount of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value remaining after the transfer and (ii) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value, all determined on the Valuation Date of such transfer. |
| c. | If a Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value consists of a Roth retirement plan account and a traditional retirement plan account, and he or she transfers directly all of his or her Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value under this Rider, or makes a one-time election to transfer directly a portion of his or her Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value, to each such contract, as applicable, then on the date of such transfers: |
GA-2060-TGWB-2014

| i. | the H[“highest birthday value” under each such contract shall be the Highest Birthday Value] under the Rider, and the “income base” and A[“annual guaranteed withdrawal amount”] under each such contract shall be the Income Base and A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount], respectively, in all cases, reduced by the percentage equivalent to the ratio of (i) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value less the amount transferred to each such contract, and (ii) the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value, all determined on the Valuation Date of such transfer. |
Such contract(s) may contain a minimum contribution requirement and have different provisions than this Rider for Our guarantees or determining the value of Our guarantees under such contract(s). The portability described in this Section 9 is not available for amounts paid from our general account under Section 2.2.
SECTION 10. INVESTMENTS
As a condition of receiving Our guarantees under this Rider We require the use of one or more of the Eligible Investments We specify for amounts directed for investment under the Agreement. We reserve the right to change or eliminate Eligible Investments or such asset allocation models, and not accept amounts for allocation to an Eligible Investment. We will exercise this right in circumstances, including but not limited to when the Eligible Investment has materially changed their holdings, strategies, investment policies, or risk/return characteristics. We also reserve the right to not permit exchanges between Eligible Investments. We may exercise this right with respect to an Eligible Investment if We are no longer accepting amounts for allocation into the Eligible Investment.
Our exercising these rights shall apply to all Agreements in the same class of business as the Agreement. Our exercise of these rights shall not affect Our guarantees with regard to Guaranteed Withdrawal Accounts established under this Rider on the effective date of Our ceasing to accept such amounts for allocation to one or more Eligible Investments.
SECTION 11. LIMITATIONS
We reserve the right to not accept amounts for allocation to an Eligible Investment:
| a. | for D[ninety (90)] days after the date amounts are allocated from the same Eligible Investment, if the transaction is a Rollover or an exchange from another Plan investment option; |
| b. | if the amount allocated is a lump sum repayment of a loan made by the Plan to the Participant; |
| c. | if the total amount allocated to all Eligible Investments in any year is greater than C[$1,000,000] or the total amount of all allocations to all Eligible Investments is greater than C[$2,000,000]; |
| d. | if the amount allocated is for the benefit of any individual who is a Participant’s beneficiary under the Plan, but ineligible for distribution of the Participant’s interest under the Plan in accordance with Section 401(a)(9)(B)(iv) of the Code; or |
| e. | If the amount is allocated for the benefit of any Plan Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] receiving payments from our general account pursuant to Section 2.2. |

SECTION 12. MISCELLANEOUS
12.1. Direction. Notwithstanding anything in this Rider to the contrary, all directions required to be given to Us under this Rider shall be given by the person authorized to give such direction under the terms of the Plan. We shall be under no obligation to act until We receive such direction.
12.2. Small Benefits. We shall make a payment equal to the sum of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value and the net actuarial value of Our guarantee to the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] under this Rider if:
| a. | the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] at the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date is less than any minimum A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] required by Us in this Rider; or |
| b. | the Plan requires the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Plan account balance to be distributed without the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] consent, other than distributions intended to comply with requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code or regulations thereunder, and such amount is not transferred directly to a contract in accordance with Section 9 of this Rider. |
In such event, the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] Guaranteed Withdrawal Account will be cancelled and no further benefits will be provided to the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] under this Rider.
12.3. Required Minimum Distributions. As of the last Valuation Date in each calendar year I[following the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date / beginning with the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year of the Guaranteed Withdrawal Lock-In Date] (each the “RMD Calculation Date”), We will determine, following Our established and published procedures that have been communicated to You, the amount a Participant B[or Eligible Spouse] would need to take as a Withdrawal to comply with the requirements of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code applicable to distributions over the life of the Participant, life of a designated beneficiary, or over the lives of the Participant and a designated beneficiary, during the next following calendar year (each the “RMD Payment Year”).
Each such amount shall be based on the assumption that J[the sum of] the Guaranteed Withdrawal Market Value J[and the net actuarial value of Our guarantees under this Rider to the Participant B[or Eligible Spouse]] is the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] entire account balance under the Plan. B[If the amount determined on the RMD Calculation Date is for an Eligible Spouse, the amount will be based on the assumption that the Eligible Spouse is a “spouse” for purposes of federal law.] If the required minimum distribution (RMD) amount determined using these assumptions exceeds the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] on the RMD Calculation Date, then the difference between such RMD amount and the A[Annual Guaranteed Withdrawal Amount] shall be the “RMD Value.” Withdrawals taken in the RMD Payment Year shall be treated as Excess Withdrawals only to the extent they exceed the RMD Value. Any RMD Value remaining at the end of each RMD Payment Year shall expire and not increase the RMD Value in any subsequent RMD Payment Year.
12.4. Misstatements and Corrections. For purposes of this Rider, if We discover that the Participant’s B[or Eligible Spouse’s] age or spousal status pertaining to Our guarantees under this Rider was misstated, or We discover a clerical error, We will adjust the benefit and any fees on an actuarially equivalent basis.
12.5. Prudential Phone Number. For information and assistance, You may contact Us at Our toll-free number: K[877-778-2100].
