                       SUPPLEMENT DATED OCTOBER 18, 2007
                                     TO THE
               PROSPECTUSES DATED APRIL 30, 2007, AS SUPPLEMENTED

This supplements the information contained in each Prospectus for the Variable
Annuity Contracts listed above. This Supplement should be read in its entirety
and kept together with the Prospectus for future reference.

Recently, the IRS announced new regulations affecting 403(b) plans and
arrangements. As part of these regulations, employers will need to meet certain
requirements in order for their employees' annuity contracts that fund these
programs to retain a tax deferred status under 403(b). These regulations are
generally effective January 1, 2009. Prior to the new rules, transfers of one
annuity contract to another would not result in a loss of tax deferred status
under 403(b) under certain conditions (so-called "90-24 transfers"). The new
regulations have the following effect regarding transfers: (1) a newly issued
contract funded by a transfer which is completed AFTER September 24, 2007, is
subject to the employer requirements referred to above; (2) additional purchase
payments made AFTER September 24, 2007, to a contract that was funded by a 90-24
transfer ON OR BEFORE September 24, 2007, MAY subject the contract to this new
employer requirement.

If your Contract/Certificate was issued previously in a 90-24 transfer completed
on or before September 24, 2007, we urge you to consult with your tax advisor
prior to making additional purchase payments.
