Variable life insurance is sold by prospectuses, which contain more complete information including fees, surrender charges and other costs that may apply.

Please read the product and fund prospectuses carefully before you invest or send money. Investors should consider the investment objectives, strategies, risk factors, charges and expenses of the underlying variable portfolios carefully before investing. The fund prospectus contains this and other information about the underlying variable portfolios.

Both the return and the principal value of the underlying portfolios will fluctuate, and the portfolios may be worth more or less than their original values when redeemed. If the performance of the portfolio options is less than anticipated, the death benefit may be reduced, the policy may lapse and/or the policyholder may be required to pay premium above the planned premium to keep the policy in force.

If tax-free loans are taken and the policy lapses, a taxable event may occur. Loans and withdrawals from life insurance policies that are classified as modified endowment contracts may be subject to tax at the time that the loan or withdrawal is taken and, if taken prior to age 59½, a 10 percent federal tax penalty may apply. Withdrawals and loans reduce the death benefit and cash surrender value. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
