VL 194 C2000


RIDER FOR TERM INSURANCE BENEFIT ON LIFE OF SECOND INSURED TO DIE

This benefit is part of this contract only if it is included in the list of
other benefits on the contract data pages. As part of the contract, it is
subject to all the provisions of the contract.

Benefit
We will pay an amount under this rider if we receive due
proof that the death of the second Insured to die occurred in the term period
for the rider and while this contract is in force. We will pay this amount to
the beneficiary for insurance payable upon the death of the second Insured to
die. But our payment is subject to all the provisions of the rider and of the
rest of this contract.

We show the amount of term insurance under this benefit and the term period on a
contract data page. The term period starts on the contract date. The anniversary
at the end of the term period is part of that period.

Rider Charges
The charge for this rider is shown under Adjustments to the Contract Fund.

Termination
This rider will end on the earliest of:
the end of its term period;
the end of the grace period if the contract is in default and the premium
required to bring it out of default has not been paid; and the date the contract
ends for any other reason.

Further, if you ask us in a form that meets our needs, we will cancel the
benefit as of the first monthly date on or after we receive your request.
Monthly charges due then and later will be reduced accordingly.

Rider attached to and made part of this contract on the Contract Date.

      We may charge less than the maximum monthly rates. From time to time, we
      will consider the need to change the rates we charge. We describe the
      factors we use to determine such changes under General Provisions.

      See the Basis of Computation for a description of the basis we use to
      compute these rates.
