The majority of the assets will be invested in one or more of our Separate Accounts invested primarily in bonds, mortgages, commercial paper and other fixed income type investments. The remainder of the assets of this Separate Account will be invested in one or more of our Separate Accounts invested primarily in common stocks and other equity investments. We may also, at our option, occasionally invest in short term money market instruments, cash or cash equivalents. We will invest or reinvest the assets held in Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Account in accordance with applicable law, without regard to any investment requirements of our general account assets or of any investment requirements of our other Separate Accounts. The assets of Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Account will pay investment management charges under our other Separate Accounts in which they are invested.

Currently no additional investment management charges are assessed under this Separate Account. We reserve the right to change the amount of the investment management charge at any time by giving you written notice at least 30 days before the date change is to take effect.

A Unit Value is the dollar.value of one unit held in Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Account. We will determine the Unit Value of Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Account on each Valuation Date.

On any Valuation Date occurring after its date of inception, the Unit Value of Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Account will be equal to the market value of Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Account on such date divided by the number of Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Account Units before any adjustments for Contributions or transfers to and applications from Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Account on such date. 3. BOND EMPHASIS BALANCED SEPARATE INVESTMENT ACCOUNT. A Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Investment Account is established for each Member for each type of Contribution he directs to Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Account.

(b) The Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Account Unit Value as of the Valuation Date, as determined in Item 2 of this rider. Contributions or transfers to a Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Investment Account increase the number of Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Account Units credited to it; applications from the account reduce the number of units. This increase or decrease is determined by dividing the amount to be credited to or applied from the account by the Bond Emphasis Balanced Separate Account Unit Value on the Valuation Date on which a Contribution or transfer was credited or an application was made.

We will determine the value of Small Company Stock Separate Account on each Valuation Date. The value of Small Company Stock Separate Account will be expressed in units. A Unit Value is the dollar value of one unit held in Small Company Stock Separate Account. We will determine the Unit Value of Small Company Stock Separate Account on each Valuation Date. This Unit Value is equal to the market value of Small Company Stock Separate Account divided by the total number of Small Company Stock Separate Account Units on such date. The initial Unit Value of one unit of Small Company Stock Separate Account was $10.00. The Unit Value for Contributions or transfers added to Small Company Stock Separate Account after its date of inception will be the Unit Value of Small Company Stock Separate Account on the Valuation Date the Contribution or transfer is accepted by us at our home office. If a Contribution or transfer is received on any date other than a Valuation Date, the Unit Value for such Contribution or transfer will be determined on the next following Valuation Date. On any Valuation Date occurring after its date of inception, the Unit Value of Small Company Stock Separate Account will be equal to the market value of Small Company Stock Separate Account on such date divided by the number of Small Company Stock Separate Account Units before any adjustments for Contributions or transfers to and applications from Small Company Stock Separate Account on such date. 3. SMALL COMPANY STOCK SEPARATE INVESTMENT ACCOUNT. A Small Company Stock Separate Investment Account is established for each Member for each type of Contribution he directs to Small Company Stock Separate Account. The value of a Small Company Stock Separate Investment Account is its proportionate share of the value of Small Company Stock Separate Account. This value will be determined on each Valuation Date by multiplying (a) by (b): (a) The number of Small Company Stock Separate Account Units in the Small Company Stock Separate Investment Account as of the Valuation Date. (b) The Small Company Stock Separate Account Unit Value as of the Valuation Date, as determined in Item 2 of this rider. Contributions or transfers to a Small Company Stock Separate Investment Account increase the number of Small Company Stock Separate Account Units credited to it; applications from the account reduce the number of units. This increase or decrease is determined by dividing the amount to be credited to or applied from the account by the Small Company Stock Separate Account Unit Value on the Valuation Date on which a Contribution or transfer was credited or an application was made.

The investments to be considered generally will be from financially stable companies and will have below-average price/earnings ratios with above-average dividend yields. We may also, at our option, occasionally invest in short term money market instruments, cash or cash equivalents. If, in our opinion, the market as a whole is overvalued, we may hold assets of this account in fixed income securities instead of stocks. We will invest and reinvest the assets held in Value Stock Separate Account in accordance with applicable law, without regard to any investment requirements of our general account assets or any of our other Separate Accounts. The investment management charge under Value Stock Separate Account is based on the value of its assets. The pro-rata charge for investment management will be deducted from Value Stock Separate Account on each Valuation Date for the number of calendar days within the Valuation Period ending on such Valuation Date. The annual investment management charge for Value Stock Separate Account will not at any time exceed 2.00% of the value of its assets. Currently, the annual investment management charge for Value Stock Separate Account is 0.36% of the value of its assets. We reserve the right to change the amount of charge for investment management up to the 2.00% limit at any time by giving you written notice at least 30 days before the date the change is to take effect.
