B. IRA Provisions
1. The Annuitant shall at all times be the Owner of the Contract (or its
beneficial Owner where a fiduciary is its legal Owner). Such individual
Owner's rights under the Contract shall be nonforfeitable, and the Contract
shall be for the exclusive benefit of such Owner and his or her
beneficiaries.
2. No benefits under the Contract may be transferred, sold, assigned, or
pledged as collateral for a loan, or as security for the performance of an
obligation, or for any other purpose, to any person; except that the
Contract may be transferred to a former or separated spouse of the Owner
under a divorce or separation instrument described in Code Section
408(d)(6). In the event of such a transfer, the transferee shall be treated
for all purposes as the Owner under the Contract.
3. Except in the case of a "rollover" contribution as permitted by Code
Section 402(c), 402(e)(6), 403(a)(4), 403(b)(8), 403(b)(10), or 457(e)(16)
or a Contribution made in accordance with the terms of a SEP, the
Contributions paid under the Contract must be paid in cash, and for any
calendar year may not exceed the lesser of the Owner's Compensation for
such year or the following applicable dollar limit:
Year Limit
---- -----
2002-2004 $ 3,000
2005-2007 $ 4,000
2008 & later $ 5,000
In addition, for years after 2008 the $5000 limit will be indexed for
cost-of-living adjustments under Code Section 219(b)(5)(C) at $500
increments.
For an Owner age 50 or older the above dollar limits are increased as
follows:
Year Limit
---- -----
2002-2005 $ 500
2006 & later $ 1,000
However, for any calendar year in which the Owner has attained age 70 1/2,
the total limit is reduced to zero.
4. If the Contract is issued as part of a SEP, Contributions must be made in
accordance with the written terms of the SEP and Code Section 408(k), and
must be paid in cash.
3
5. No Contribution shall be allowed into the Contract under a SIMPLE IRA Plan
established by an employer pursuant to Code Section 408(p). Also, no
transfer or rollover of funds attributable to contributions made by a
particular employer under its SIMPLE IRA Plan shall be allowed into the
Contract from a SIMPLE IRA prior to the expiration of the 2-year period
beginning on the date the individual Owner first participated in that
employer's SIMPLE IRA Plan.
6. Any Purchase Payment (or premium payment) under the Contract is not fixed,
but may not be less than any minimum amount stated in the Purchase Payment
(or Premiums) provisions of the Contract.
7. Any Purchase Payment (or premium) refund declared by PL under the Contract,
other than a refund attributable to an excess Contribution, shall be
applied toward the purchase of additional benefits before the close of the
calendar year following the calendar year of the refund.
8. The Contract and all distributions made under it shall comply with the RMD
and incidental death benefit rules of Code Sections 401(a)(9), 408(a)(6)
and 408(b)(3) and the Regulations thereunder, and such rules shall override
any distribution options in the Contract that are inconsistent with those
Code Sections. Accordingly:
(a) The entire interest under the Contract shall be distributed:
(i) No later than the Required Beginning Date, or
(ii) By periodic distributions, starting no later than the Required
Beginning Date, over the Owner's life or the lives of the Owner
and a Designated Beneficiary (or over a period not extending
beyond the Owner's Life Expectancy or the joint and last survivor
Life Expectancy of the Owner and a Designated Beneficiary).
(b) RMDs shall be made in accordance with the Regulations under Code
Section 401(a)(9) and related Code provisions. Accordingly:
(i) Unless the Owner elects otherwise in writing to PL by the Owner's
Election Date to have the Owner's entire interest distributed
under another method offered by PL that qualifies under Code
Section 401(a)(9), the RMD amount that must be distributed each
Distribution Year with respect to the Contract shall be equal to
the quotient obtained by dividing the account balance for the
Contract (as determined under Reg. (ss)1.408-8, Q&A-6) by the
Applicable Distribution Period. For these purposes --
(1) The Applicable Distribution Period is determined by using the
Uniform Lifetime Table in Reg. (ss)1.401(a)(9)-9, Q&A-2 in
accordance with Reg. (ss)1.401(a)(9)-5, Q&A-4(a), or
(2) If the Owner's spouse is treated as the sole Designated
Beneficiary for the Contract (taking Separate Shares into
account) for the Distribution Year under Reg.
(ss)1.401(a)(9)-5, Q&A-4(b), the Applicable Distribution
Period is the longer of the distribution period under
subparagraph (1) immediately above or the joint Life
Expectancy of the Owner and such spouse, recalculated
annually and based on their attained ages as of their
birthdays in such Distribution Year, as reflected in the
Joint and Last Survivor Table in Reg. (ss)1.401(a)(9)-9,
Q&A-3.
Such RMD must be distributed no later than the Required Beginning
Date for the first Distribution Year, and for each subsequent
Distribution Year by December 31 thereof. However, the Owner may
arrange to have any portion (or all) of such RMD distributed from
another Non Roth IRA owned by such Owner (rather than from the
Contract) in accordance with Reg. (ss)1.408-8, Q&A-9. If the Owner
dies on or after the Required Beginning Date, an RMD is required
for the Owner's Year of Death, determined as if the Owner had
lived throughout that year.
4
(ii) As of the Owner's Election Date or at any time thereafter (on 30
days notice to PL), the Owner may elect in writing to have any
portion or all of the undistributed interest under the Contract
applied to an annuity option offered by PL that qualifies under
Code Section 401(a)(9). Such an annuity option must make annuity
or other periodic payments at intervals no longer than one year,
and must satisfy the other requirements of Reg.
(ss)1.401(a)(9)-6T, including:
(1) Period certain annuity without a life contingency. The period
certain may not exceed the maximum period specified in Reg.
(ss)1.401(a)(9)-6T, Q&A-3.
(2) Life annuity or a joint and survivor annuity. A life annuity
must be on the Owner's life. Any periodic annuity payment to
any survivor under a joint and survivor annuity may not
exceed the applicable percentage of the annuity payment to
the Owner and other limits, as provided in Reg.
(ss)1.401(a)(9)-6T, Q&A-2.
(3) Life (or joint and survivor) annuity with period certain. The
amounts of the annuity payments must satisfy the requirements
in Reg. (ss)1.401(a)(9)-6T, Q&A-1(b) and Q&A-2(d).
(4) Annuity payments may not be in increasing amounts, except as
allowed by Reg. (ss)1.401(a)(9)-6T, Q&A-1(a) or Q&A-4(b).
9. Upon the Owner's death, RMDs shall be made under the Contract in accordance
with this Section 9 and the Regulations under Code Section 401(a)(9) and
related Code provisions. Accordingly, selection of any annuity or other
distribution option described in the Contract that does not satisfy the
requirements of this Section 9 shall not be permitted.
(a) If the Owner dies before distribution of his or her interest in the
Contract has begun in accordance with paragraph 8(a) above, the entire
interest shall be distributed by December 31 of the fifth calendar
year that follows the Owner's Year of Death, except to the extent that
paragraph 9(c) or (d) below applies.
(b) If the Owner dies after distribution of the Owner's interest in the
Contract has begun in accordance with paragraph 8(a) above but before
the Owner's entire interest has been distributed, the remaining
interest shall be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method
of distribution being used immediately prior to the Owner's death,
except to the extent that paragraph 9(c) or (d) below applies. To the
extent that the Contract has no annuity payout option in effect and no
Measuring Designated Beneficiary as of the Applicable Designation Date
(and paragraph (9)(c) and (d) do not apply), then the Applicable
Distribution Period shall be determined by the Owner's remaining Life
Expectancy, using the Owner's age as of the Owner's birthday in the
Owner's Year of Death. For Distribution Years after the Owner's Year
of Death such Applicable Distribution Period is reduced by one year
for each calendar year that has elapsed since the Owner's Year of
Death.
(c) If the Surviving Spouse is the sole Designated Beneficiary under the
Contract (taking Separate Shares into account) as of the Applicable
Designation Date, then -
(i) If no irrevocable written election to the contrary has been filed
with PL by the deceased Owner or the Surviving Spouse prior to
the Spouse's Continuation Election Date, the Contract shall
continue in the name of the deceased Owner, and RMDs must begin
by the Spouse's Required Beginning Date and be made in accordance
with Section 8 above. For these purposes, the Applicable
Distribution Period for each Distribution Year after the Owner's
Year of Death -
(1) Is measured by the Surviving Spouse's remaining Life
Expectancy, recalculated annually through the Spouse's Year
of Death, and
5
(2) For a Distribution Year after the Spouse's Year of Death, is
measured by the Surviving Spouse's remaining Life Expectancy
as of the Surviving Spouse's birthday in the Spouse's Year
of Death, reduced by one year for each calendar year that
has elapsed since the calendar year next following the
Spouse's Year of Death.
However, if the Owner dies on or after the Required Beginning
Date, such Applicable Distribution Period shall not be shorter
than the Applicable Distribution Period measured by using the
Owner's remaining Life Expectancy in accordance with paragraph
9(b) above and Reg. (ss)1.401(a)(9)-5, Q&A-5(a)(1). If the
Surviving Spouse dies before the Spouse's Required Beginning Date
for such a continued Contract, then the Surviving Spouse shall be
treated as the deceased Owner for purposes of this Section 9
(except that any surviving spouse of such a deceased Surviving
Spouse cannot continue the Contract further under this
subparagraph (i) as a Surviving Spouse). Any Surviving Spouse may
arrange to have any portion (or all) of any RMD that is
distributable with respect to such spouse's interest in the
Contract distributed from another Non Roth IRA formerly owned by
the deceased Owner for which such spouse is also a designated
beneficiary (rather than from the Contract) in accordance with
Reg. (ss)1.408-8, Q&A-9.
(ii) The Surviving Spouse may elect at any time to treat the entire
remaining interest in the Contract as an IRA of such Surviving
Spouse, if such Surviving Spouse has an unlimited right to
withdraw amounts from the Contract and is the sole beneficiary of
the Contract, within the meaning of Reg. (ss)1.408-8, Q&A-5(a).
Such an eligible Surviving Spouse shall make such an election by
a written request to PL to redesignate such Surviving Spouse as
the Owner and Annuitant of the Contract. Such an eligible
Surviving Spouse shall be deemed to have made such an election if
either -
(1) Such Surviving Spouse makes any transfer, rollover or other
contribution of any amount for the benefit of such Surviving
Spouse into the Contract, or
(2) Such Surviving Spouse directs PL in writing to transfer or
rollover any part or all of the assets to which such
Surviving Spouse is entitled under the Contract to another
IRA owned by such Surviving Spouse or to another Plan for
the benefit of such Surviving Spouse, or
(3) Any RMD that is required to be distributed from the Contract
under this Section 9 or under Code Section 401(a)(9) (e.g.,
in the case of any amount rolled over or transferred into
the Contract from a Plan) is not distributed within the
appropriate time.
(iii) The Surviving Spouse may make an irrevocable election in writing
with PL by the Spouse's Continuation Election Date to have such
Surviving Spouse's entire interest under the Contract distributed
under another method offered by PL that qualifies under Code
Section 401(a)(9). In addition to any optional method that
qualifies under the 5-year rule in paragraph 9(a) above, such
optional methods include the following:
(1) Any annuity option that satisfies Reg. (ss)1.401(a)(9)-5,
Q&A-1(e) and provides for periodic distributions that begin
no later than the Spouse's Required Beginning Date, or
(2) Any other method that provides for periodic distributions
that begin no later than the Spouse's Required Beginning
Date and do not extend beyond the Applicable Distribution
Period determined in accordance with subparagraph 9(c)(i)
above.
(d) If as of the Applicable Designation Date the Contract (taking any
Separate Shares into account) has at least one Designated Beneficiary
and no entity (e.g., a trust or estate) is treated under Reg.
(ss)1.401(a)(9)-4, Q&A-3 as a beneficiary under the Contract, then -
6
(i) To the extent that no irrevocable election to the contrary has
been filed with PL by the deceased Owner or any such Designated
Beneficiary by the DB Election Date (and no Surviving Spouse is
the sole Designated Beneficiary), then annual distributions of
the remaining interest in the Contract must be made over the
Applicable Distribution Period starting with the DB Required
Beginning Date. In that case, the RMD amount that must be
distributed each Distribution Year with respect to the Contract
shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the account
balance for the Contract (as determined in accordance with
subparagraph 8(b)(i) above) by the Applicable Distribution
Period. For these purposes -
(1) The Applicable Distribution Period for the Distribution Year
next following the Owner's Year of Death is determined by the
Measuring Designated Beneficiary's remaining Life Expectancy,
using such beneficiary's age as of such beneficiary's
birthday in such Distribution Year; and
(2) For a subsequent Distribution Year the Applicable
Distribution Period is reduced by one year for each calendar
year that has elapsed since the calendar year next following
the Owner's Year of Death.
However, if the Owner dies on or after the Required Beginning
Date, such Applicable Distribution Period shall not be shorter
than the Applicable Distribution Period measured by using the
Owner's remaining Life Expectancy in accordance with paragraph
9(b) above and Reg. (ss)1.401(a)(9)-5, Q&A-5(a)(1). Such RMD must
be distributed no later than the DB Required Beginning Date, and
for each subsequent Distribution Year by December 31 thereof.
However, any Designated Beneficiary may arrange to have any
portion (or all) of such RMD (that is distributable with respect
to such beneficiary's interest in the Contract) distributed from
another Non Roth IRA formerly owned by such deceased Owner for
which such beneficiary is also a designated beneficiary (rather
than from the Contract) in accordance with Reg. (ss)1.408-8,
Q&A-9.
(ii) Any such Designated Beneficiary may make an irrevocable election
in writing with PL by the DB Election Date to have such Designated
Beneficiary's entire interest under the Contract distributed under
another method offered by PL that qualifies under Code Section
401(a)(9). In addition to any optional method that qualifies under
the 5-year rule in paragraph 9(a) above, such optional methods
include the following:
(1) Any annuity option that satisfies Reg. (ss)1.401(a)(9)-5,
Q&A-1(e) and provides for periodic distributions that begin
no later than the DB Required Beginning Date, or
(2) Any other method that provides for periodic distributions
that begin no later than the DB Required Beginning Date and
do not extend beyond the Applicable Distribution Period
determined in accordance with subparagraph 9(d)(i) above.
(e) Any amount payable to a minor child of the Owner shall be treated as
if it is payable to the Surviving Spouse if the remainder of the
interest becomes payable to such spouse when such child reaches the
age of majority.
(f) Unless the Owner provides to the contrary in writing to PL, any
beneficiary of any interest under the Contract shall have an unlimited
right after the Notice Date, upon 30 days written notice to PL, to
withdraw any portion or all of such interest or to apply any such
amount to an annuity option that qualifies under Reg.
(ss)1.401(a)(9)-5, Q&A-1(e).
(g) If the Owner dies before the entire interest under the Contract has
been distributed, no additional cash Contributions or rollover
Contributions shall be allowed into the Contract, except where the
Surviving Spouse elects (or is deemed to elect) to convert the
Contract to be his or her own IRA, as specified above in this
Section 9.

10. PL shall furnish annual calendar year reports concerning the status of the
Contract and such information concerning RMDs as is prescribed by the IRS.
C. Tax Qualification Provisions
The Contract as amended by this rider is intended to qualify as part of a
tax-qualified individual retirement arrangement, plan or contract that
meets the requirements of Code Section 408 and any applicable Regulations
relating thereto. To that end, the provisions of this rider and the
Contract (including any other rider or endorsement) are to be interpreted
to ensure or maintain such tax qualification, despite any other provision
to the contrary. PL reserves the right to amend this rider to comply with
any future changes in the Code or any Regulations, rulings or other
published guidance under the Code, or to reflect any clarifications that
may be needed or are appropriate to maintain such tax qualification,
without consent (except for the states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, South
Carolina and Washington, where affirmative consent is required). PL shall
provide the Owner with a copy of any such amendment.
All other terms and conditions of your Contract remain unchanged.
