NOTE - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I understand Nationwide Life Insurance Company/Nationwide Life and Annuity Insurance Company will not accept any premium with this application and the receipt will not be in effect and must not be detached if any person here proposed for insurance has ever been treated for or been diagnosed by a physician as having: high blood pressure, angina, or chest pain or discomfort; heart attack, heart murmur, or other heart disorder; epilepsy, stroke, or diabetes; acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), AIDS-related complex (ARC), any AIDS-related disorder or positive HIV test result; any brain, nervous, or mental disorder; any drug or alcohol addiction; any kidney disorder (other than kidney stones); or any cancer or other malignancy. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 23. TAXPAYER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Under the Interest and Dividend Compliance Act of 1983, persons owning insurance policies are required to provide the Company with certification that their taxpayer identification number is correct. (For most individuals, this is their Social Security Number.) If you do not provide us with certification of this number, you may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the Internal Revenue Service. In addition, we will be forced to withhold 31% from interest and other payments we make to you (known as backup withholding). It is not an additional tax, since the amount withheld will be applied against the tax you owe. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained. / / Check this box if the Internal Revenue Service has notified you that you are not subject to the provisions of this law. Otherwise, your signature on this application is certification that the taxpayer identification number on this application is true, correct, and complete. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 24. IMPORTANT NOTICE - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I UNDERSTAND THAT THE DEATH BENEFIT UNDER A VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE POLICY MAY INCREASE OR DECREASE, DEPENDING ON THE INVESTMENT RETURN ON THE SUBACCOUNT(S) I SELECT. REGARDLESS OF INVESTMENT RETURN, THE DEATH BENEFIT CAN NEVER BE LESS THAN THE SPECIFIED AMOUNT, AS LONG AS THE POLICY IS IN FORCE. THE CONTRACT VALUE MAY INCREASE OR DECREASE ON ANY DAY, DEPENDING ON THE INVESTMENT RETURN FOR THE POLICY. NO MINIMUM CONTRACT VALUE IS GUARANTEED. ON REQUEST, WE WILL FURNISH ILLUSTRATIONS OF BENEFITS, INCLUDING DEATH BENEFITS AND CONTRACT VALUES FOR A VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE POLICY AND A FIXED LIFE INSURANCE POLICY FOR THE SAME PREMIUM. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 25.

I understand each of the questions. All of the answers and statements on this form are complete and true to the best of my knowledge and belief. I understand and agree that: 1. This application, any amendments to it, and any related medical examinations will become a part of the Policy and are the basis of any insurance issued upon this application. 2. Any person who submits an application or a claim containing a false or deceptive statement, and does so with intent to defraud or knowing that he/she is facilitating a fraud against an insurer, is guilty of insurance fraud. 3. No medical examiner and no agent or other representative of Nationwide may accept risks or make or change any contract, or waive or change any of the Company's rights or requirements. 4. If the full first premium payment is made in exchange for a Temporary Insurance Receipt (with the same date and number as this form), Nationwide will only be liable to the extent set forth in that receipt. 5.

IF A POLICY IS ISSUED BY NATIONWIDE AND IS ACCEPTED BY ME; AND b. IF THE FULL FIRST PREMIUM IS PAID; AND c. IF ALL THE ANSWERS AND STATEMENTS MADE ON THE APPLICATION, MEDICAL EXAMINATION(S) AND AMENDMENTS CONTINUE TO BE TRUE TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE AND BELIEF.

TEMPORARY INSURANCE RECEIPT NO. NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY/NATIONWIDE LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY COLUMBUS, OHIO Received from ____________________________________________________________ this ______________________ day of ___________, ________ the sum of _________________________________ dollars ($______________). The temporary insurance that is provided by this receipt is for the coverage afforded by the initial premium deposit that is shown in question 10 on page 2 of the application which has the same date and number as this receipt; except that the total coverage with this Company under this and all other receipts will not exceed $1,000,000 on the person who is proposed for insurance, regardless of the total amount(s) or number of receipts or applications. If coverage afforded by the premium shown in question 10 on page 2 is more than $1,000,000 of insurance under this and/or any other application, the company's liability will be no more than $1,000,000 plus a prorated return of premium submitted in excess of the premium required to afford the $1,000,000 of insurance coverage. Temporary insurance for the person who is proposed for coverage will be in force on the date of this receipt, subject to the terms of the policy applied for in this application. Coverage will end on the earliest of: 1. The date the policy is issued. (The policy will replace the temporary insurance.) 2. The date the Company returns the premium deposit and mails a written notice to the Applicant that said insurance has ended for each person who is proposed for insurance. 3. The 45th day after the date of this receipt (unless the receipt has been replaced earlier or has ended as noted in 1 or 2). Fraud or material misrepresentation in this application voids the agreement. In such cases, the Company's only liability is for a refund of the payment made. If any person who is proposed for coverage dies by suicide, the Company's only liability with respect to that person under this receipt is for a refund of payment made for that person's portion of the insurance applied for. ___________________________________________________ I have read and agree to the terms of this receipt. _________________________________ Licensed Resident Agent Signature ___________________________________________________ Signature of Proposed Insured (if over age 14) _________________________________ Date ___________________________________________________ Signature of Applicant if other than Insured IMPORTANT NOTICE DETACH AND GIVE TO PROPOSED INSURED PRE-NOTICE OF PROCEDURES AS REQUIRED BY THE FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT OF 1970 This notice is to inform you that as part of our normal underwriting procedures in connection with an application for insurance: 1.
