Any decrease in coverage other than benefit reductions noted on the SCHEDULE OF BENEFITS will take effect immediately but will not affect a payable claim that occurs prior to the decrease. CHANGE OF INSURANCE CARRIERS We will provide continuity of coverage under our Policy if both of the following are true: You are not in Active Employment due to sickness or injury or due to an Employer-approved non-medical leave of absence on the date the Employer changes insurance carriers to our Policy. You were covered under the prior group life policy, including payment of premiums to the prior insurance carrier when due, on the day before the coverage for your eligible class under our Policy became effective. You are not eligible under this provision if any of the following are true: Your coverage is being continued under a waiver of premium (or any similar) provision of the prior policy. Your coverage is being continued under a continuation or portability provision of the prior policy. You converted your coverage with the prior insurance carrier. You are not in Active Employment due to reasons other than sickness, injury or an Employer-approved non- medical leave of absence. If you are eligible for continuity of coverage under this provision, we will provide limited coverage under our Policy. Coverage under this provision will begin on the date your eligible class is covered under our Policy and will continue until the earliest of the following: The date you return to Active Employment. The date the Employer-approved leave of absence ends. The date your continuation would end under the terms of our Policy. The date your continuation would have ended under the terms of the prior policy. The date coverage would otherwise end, according to the provisions of our Policy. 12 months following the date you were last in Active Employment. Your coverage under this provision is subject to payment of Premiums. Any benefits payable under this provision will be the lesser of the amount of coverage under the prior policy had it remained in force, or the amount you are eligible for under our Policy. We will reduce our payment by any amount paid under the prior policy. If your coverage under this provision ends while the Policy is in force, and you are not otherwise eligible for insurance under the Policy, then you will be eligible for conversion as described in the CONVERSION provision. If you were not covered under the Employer's prior policy on the date that policy terminated, then the EFFECTIVE DATE OF COVERAGE provision will apply.
ICC18 LC14GP-2 10 D12995 (11/25) TERMINATION OF COVERAGE Your coverage under the Policy ends on the earliest of the following dates: The date the Policy terminates. The date coverage for all Active Employees under the Policy terminates. The date you are no longer in an eligible class. The date your eligible class is no longer covered. The date you voluntarily cancel your Contributory coverage, as allowed by the Employer. The end of the period for which Premiums are paid if the next Premium is not paid by its due date, subject to the Policy grace period. The last day you are in Active Employment. We will pay benefits for a loss that occurs while you are covered under the Policy. This does not apply to Retirees. CONVERSION You may convert your life insurance, without Evidence of Insurability, to an individual life insurance policy if any part of your life insurance under the Policy stops for one of the following reasons: Your coverage ends according to the TERMINATION OF COVERAGE provision other than your voluntary cancellation of your Contributory coverage. Any continuation of insurance under the Policy ends. Your coverage reduces due to BENEFIT REDUCTIONS as described on the SCHEDULE OF BENEFITS. Your coverage reduces due to your change from one eligible class to another. Your coverage reduces due to a Policy change. Only life insurance is eligible for conversion. The maximum amount of life insurance you are eligible to convert cannot be greater than the amount of life insurance you had prior to termination. Conversion does not include any additional benefits such as accelerated death benefits, accidental death and dismemberment benefits, or waiver of premium benefits. Any amounts of coverage for which you remain eligible under the Policy are not eligible for conversion. To convert your life insurance, you must apply and pay the first premium to us within 31 days of the date any part of your life insurance under the Policy terminates (the “conversion period”). You will be given Written notice, in person or at your last known address, of your conversion right at least 15 days before the date any part of your life insurance ends. Your right to convert will expire on the later of 16 days after you are given such notice or the end of the conversion period, but in no event will your right to convert extend beyond 60 days after the expiration of the conversion period. Any extension of time allowed for returning the completed application and first premium will not change the length of the conversion period itself. You may apply to convert the entire amount of life insurance that is terminating under the Policy, or a lesser amount. The maximum amount of life insurance coverage you are eligible to convert will be reduced by any amount of life insurance for which you become eligible under any group policy within 31 days after the beginning of the conversion period. Premiums for the conversion policy will be based on our rates then in use, the form and amount of insurance, your class of risk, and your attained age at the beginning of the conversion period. The conversion policy may be any individual life insurance policy then customarily offered by us for conversion, other than term insurance. The conversion policy will not include any additional benefits. When we accept your application and first premium, the conversion policy will become effective on the 32nd day after the date the life insurance under the Policy terminated. During the conversion period, your life insurance will continue under the terms of the Policy. If you die within the conversion period, any life insurance amount that you were entitled to convert will be payable as a death benefit under the Policy and any premiums paid for conversion will be refunded to the Beneficiary. If you have made an absolute assignment of your insurance, only the current owner may apply for conversion.
ICC18 LC14GP-2 11 D12995 (11/25) INCONTESTABILITY Any statement made by you is considered a representation and not a warranty. We will not use such statement to avoid insurance, reduce benefits or defend a claim unless the statement is included in a Written statement of insurability which has been Signed by you and a copy of such statement of insurability has been given to you or to the Beneficiary. Except for fraud, we will not use such statement relating to insurability to contest life insurance after it has been in force for two years during your lifetime. Except for fraud, we will not use such statement to contest an increase or benefit addition to such insurance, after the increase or benefit has been in force for two years during your lifetime. Fraud in the procurement of coverage under the Policy is only contestable after the coverage has been in force for two years from its effective date when permitted by applicable law in the governing jurisdiction. The statement on which any contest is based must be material to the risk accepted or the hazard assumed by us. CLERICAL ERROR Clerical error or omission by us or by the Policyholder will not: Prevent you from receiving coverage, if you are entitled to coverage under the terms of the Policy. Cause coverage to begin or continue for you when the coverage would not otherwise be effective. If the Policyholder gives us information about you that is incorrect, we will do both of the following: Use the facts to decide whether you are eligible for coverage under the Policy and in what amounts. Make a fair adjustment of the Premium. An error will not end insurance validly in effect, nor will it continue insurance validly ended. MISSTATEMENT OF AGE If Premiums are based on your age and you have misstated your age, then your correct age will be used to determine if insurance is in effect and, as appropriate, the Premium and/or benefits will be adjusted. We may require satisfactory proof of your age before paying any claim. ASSIGNMENT You may make an absolute assignment of ownership of your insurance under the Policy to any person or entity by sending us Written notice on a form that we accept. An absolute assignment transfers all your duties, rights, title and interest under the Policy to the new owner. The new owner can make any changes allowed under the Policy and Certificate. An absolute assignment form is available from the Employer or us. Any assignment form must be Signed by both the current owner and the new owner. The Signed form must be received and accepted by us in order to be valid. An accepted assignment will take effect on the date the form is Signed by you, unless otherwise specified in the Signed form. An assignment does not affect any payment we make or action we take before receiving the Signed form. An assignment does not change the insurance or the Beneficiary designation. If you want to continue an absolute assignment made under the Employer’s prior group life insurance policy, a statement of intent form is available from the Employer or us. The form must be Signed by both you and the assignee. The Signed form must be received and accepted by us in order to be valid. A statement of intent does not affect any payment we make or action we take before receiving the Signed form. A statement of intent does not change the insurance or the Beneficiary designation. We assume no responsibility for the validity of any assignment. You are responsible to see that the assignment is legal in your state and that it accomplishes the goals that you intend. BENEFICIARY The Beneficiary is named by you to receive any proceeds payable at your death. While your coverage is in force, you may change the Beneficiary designation by Written request on a form that is acceptable to us. A Beneficiary designation form is available from the Employer or us. An accepted designation will take effect as of the date it is Signed, unless you specify otherwise in the Signed designation, but will not affect any payment we make or action we
ICC18 LC14GP-2 12 D12995 (11/25) take before receiving the Signed form. If you have made an absolute assignment of your insurance, only the current owner may change the Beneficiary designation. If an irrevocable Beneficiary is named, the Beneficiary designation can only be changed with the consent of the irrevocable Beneficiary. There can be one or more Beneficiaries. If two or more Beneficiaries are named and their shares are not specified in the Beneficiary designation, then the Beneficiaries will share any insurance proceeds equally. If a primary Beneficiary does not survive you, their share will be payable to the remaining primary Beneficiaries. One or more contingent Beneficiaries may be named to receive the proceeds in the event that all of the primary Beneficiaries named do not survive you. Please refer to the LIFE INSURANCE BENEFITS section of the Certificate for information about payment. AGENCY For purposes of the Policy, the Policyholder acts on its own behalf or as your agent. Under no circumstances will the Policyholder be deemed our agent.

ICC18 LC14GP-2 13 D12995 (11/25) We pay a death benefit to the Beneficiary if we receive Written proof that you died while your insurance under the Policy is in force.

The process for completing the claim form and submitting the claim form will be explained in the claim form paperwork. Proof of loss, including any attachments indicated on the claim form as required, should be sent directly to us at the address indicated on the form. We may also require information from the Employer in order to verify eligibility. Proof of loss consists of a certified copy of your death certificate or other lawful evidence providing equivalent information, and proof of the claimant’s interest in the proceeds. We will review the claim and proof of loss we receive in order to determine our liability and the correct payee(s). If we approve the claim, we will pay the benefits subject to the terms of this Certificate. AUTOPSY We reserve the right to make a reasonable request for an autopsy at our expense where permitted by law.

ICC18 LC14GP-2 14 D12995 (11/25) LEGAL ACTION The time period during which any person can start legal action regarding any claim under the Policy is subject to applicable law in the governing jurisdiction. Nothing in this provision waives, extends or tolls any applicable statute of limitations governing any claim relating in any way to your coverage. DENIALS AND APPEALS FOR PLANS SUBJECT TO THE EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT INCOME SECURITY ACT OF 1974 (ERISA) If we deny a claim in whole or in part (an “adverse benefit determination”), we will provide Written notice of the adverse benefit determination to the claimant as soon as possible, but no more than 90 days after receipt of the claim unless an extension is needed. An extension of 90 days will be allowed for processing the claim if special circumstances are involved. The claimant will be given notice of any such extension before the end of the initial 90-day period. The notice will state the special circumstances involved and the date a decision is expected. If an extension is needed due to the claimant’s failure to submit information necessary to decide a claim, the extension period will be tolled from the date on which notification of the extension is sent to the claimant until the date on which the claimant responds to the request for additional information. A notice of an adverse benefit determination will be Written in an understandable manner and include the following: The specific reason(s) for the adverse benefit determination. Reference to the specific provision on which the determination is based. A description of additional information, if any, which would enable a claimant to receive the benefits sought and an explanation of why it is needed. A description of the claim review procedure and the time limits applicable to such procedures, including a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action following an adverse benefit determination on review. The claimant may request a review of an adverse benefit determination (an “appeal”) at any time during the 60 day period following receipt of the notice of the determination. We will consider an appeal upon Written application of the claimant or his or her duly authorized representative. As part of the appeal the claimant also has the right, upon request and free of charge, to reasonable access to and copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to the claimant’s claim for benefits. The claimant may, in the course of this appeal, review relevant documents and submit to us Written comments, documents, records and other information relevant to the claimant’s claim for benefits. Following our review of the appeal, we will provide the claimant with a Written decision of the final determination of the claim. This decision will be issued as soon as possible, but no more than 60 days after the receipt of the appeal unless an extension is needed. An extension of 60 days will be allowed for making this decision if special circumstances are present. The claimant will be given notice of any such extension before the end of the 60-day period. The notice will state the special circumstances involved and the date a decision is expected. If an extension is needed due to the claimant’s failure to submit information necessary to decide a claim, the extension period will be tolled from the date on which notification of the extension is sent to the claimant until the date on which the claimant responds to the request for additional information. If we send an adverse benefit determination following our review of the appeal, the notice of the determination will be Written in an understandable manner and include the following: The specific reason(s) for the adverse benefit determination. Reference to the specific provision on which the determination is based. A statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information relevant to the claimant’s claim for benefits.

TERMINATION OF COVERAGE This rider terminates on the earliest of the following: The date your life insurance terminates. The date this rider is terminated for all Employees under the Policy. The date this rider is terminated for the eligible class of Employees to which you belong. The date you voluntarily cancel this rider in Writing, as allowed by the Employer unless prohibited by federal and state law. The date your Spouse is no longer an eligible Spouse as defined by this rider. The end of the period for which Premiums for this rider are paid if the next Premium is not paid by its due date, subject to the Policy grace period. We will pay benefits for a loss that occurs while your Spouse is insured under this rider. CONVERSION You may convert Spouse life insurance, without Evidence of Insurability, to an individual life insurance policy if Spouse life insurance under this rider stops for any reason other than nonpayment of Premium, your voluntary cancellation of this rider, your Spouse ceasing to be an eligible Spouse as defined, or your death. You may also convert any part of Spouse life insurance that reduces due to a BENEFIT REDUCTION as described on the SCHEDULE OF BENEFITS or your change from one eligible class to another or a Policy change. If you have made an absolute assignment of insurance, only the current owner may apply for conversion under this paragraph. Your Spouse may convert Spouse life insurance, without Evidence of Insurability, to an individual life insurance policy if Spouse life insurance under this rider stops because your Spouse is no longer an eligible Spouse as defined, or because of your death. Only life insurance is eligible for conversion. The maximum amount of life insurance eligible for conversion cannot be greater than the amount of Spouse life insurance you had prior to termination. Conversion does not include any
ICC18 LR14GP-SPR-2 6 SPR-12995 (11/25) additional benefits such as accelerated death benefits, accidental death and dismemberment benefits, or waiver of premium benefits. Any amounts of coverage for which your Spouse remains eligible under the Policy are not eligible for conversion. To convert Spouse life insurance, application must be made and the first premium paid to us within 31 days of the date any part of Spouse life insurance under this rider terminates (the “conversion period”). You will be given Written notice, in person or at your last known address, of your conversion right at least 15 days before the date any part of Spouse life insurance ends. Your right to convert will expire on the later of 16 days after you are given such notice or the end of the conversion period, but in no event will your right to convert extend beyond 60 days after the expiration of the conversion period. Any extension of time allowed for returning the completed application and first premium will not change the length of the conversion period itself. Application for conversion may be for the entire amount of Spouse life insurance that is terminating under this rider, or a lesser amount. The maximum amount of Spouse life insurance coverage eligible for conversion will be reduced by any amount of Spouse life insurance for which you become eligible under any group policy within 31 days after the beginning of the conversion period. Premiums for the conversion policy will be based on our rates then in use, the form and amount of insurance, your Spouse’s class of risk, and your Spouse’s attained age at the beginning of the conversion period. The conversion policy may be any individual life insurance policy then customarily offered by us for conversion, other than term insurance. The conversion policy will not include any additional benefits. When we accept the application and first premium, the conversion policy will become effective on the 32nd day after the date the life insurance under the Policy terminated. During the conversion period, Spouse life insurance will continue under the terms of this rider. If your Spouse dies within the conversion period, any life insurance amount that was eligible for conversion will be payable as a death benefit under the Policy and any premiums paid for conversion will be refunded to the Beneficiary. INCONTESTABILITY Any statement made by you or your Spouse is considered a representation and not a warranty. We will not use such statement to avoid insurance, reduce benefits or defend a claim unless the statement is included in a Written statement of insurability which has been Signed by you or your Spouse and a copy of such statement of insurability has been given to you or to the Beneficiary. Except for fraud, we will not use such statement relating to insurability to contest life insurance after it has been in force for two years during your Spouse’s lifetime. Except for fraud, we will not use such statement to contest an increase or benefit addition to such insurance, after the increase or benefit has been in force for two years during your Spouse’s lifetime. Fraud in the procurement of coverage under the Policy is only contestable after the coverage has been in force for two years from its effective date when permitted by applicable law in the governing jurisdiction. The statement on which any contest is based must be material to the risk accepted or the hazard assumed by us. BENEFICIARY You are the Beneficiary for proceeds that become payable at your Spouse’s death under this rider. If you have made an absolute assignment of your insurance, then during your lifetime the current owner is the Beneficiary. You, or the current owner if ownership was assigned, are automatically the Beneficiary for these proceeds and this designation may not be changed. See the Portability Rider for information about the eligible Beneficiary for continued coverage after your death or divorce. If the Beneficiary is not living on the date payment if made, benefits are payable to the Beneficiary’s estate. Please refer to the LIFE INSURANCE BENEFITS section for more information about payment. CONFORMITY WITH INTERSTATE INSURANCE PRODUCT REGULATION COMMISSION STANDARDS This rider was approved under the authority of the Interstate Insurance Product Regulation Commission and issued under the Commission standards. Any provision of this rider which, on the provision’s effective date, conflicts with Interstate Insurance Product Regulation Commission standards for this product type, is automatically amended to conform to the Interstate Insurance Product Regulation Commission standards for this product type as of the provision’s effective date.
ICC18 LR14GP-SPR-2 7 SPR-12995 (11/25) LIFE INSURANCE BENEFITS We pay a death benefit to the Beneficiary if we receive Written proof that your Spouse died while Spouse insurance under this rider is in force. See the CONVERSION provision for information about death benefits payable during the conversion period following your death. The death benefit is the amount of Spouse life insurance for the eligible class as shown on the SCHEDULE OF BENEFITS in effect on the date of your Spouse’s death minus any amount paid under the Accelerated Death Benefit Rider. NOTICE OF CLAIM AND PROOF OF LOSS A claim form is available from the Employer or us. The process for completing the claim form and submitting the claim form will be explained in the claim form paperwork. Proof of loss, including any attachments indicated on the claim form as required, should be sent directly to us at the address indicated on the form. We may also require information from the Employer in order to verify eligibility. Proof of loss consists of a certified copy of your Spouse’s death certificate or other lawful evidence providing equivalent information, and proof of the claimant’s interest in the proceeds. We will review proof of loss we receive in order to determine our liability and the correct payee(s). If we approve the claim, we will pay the benefits subject to the terms of this rider. PAYMENT OF PROCEEDS To be eligible to receive proceeds, the Beneficiary must be living on the date of your Spouse’s death. Exception: If your Spouse dies during the conversion period following your death and you would otherwise have been the Beneficiary, we will pay the proceeds to your estate. If the Beneficiary is eligible to receive proceeds but dies before receiving them, we will pay the proceeds to the Beneficiary’s estate. We will pay the death benefit to the Beneficiary in one sum or in a method comparable to one sum. Other methods of payment may be made available to the Beneficiary at the time of claim. Any payment we make in good faith will discharge our liability to the extent of such payment. PAYMENT OF INTEREST We pay interest on the death benefit proceeds, accruing from the date of your Spouse’s death up to the date of payment. The minimum interest rate payable will be the interest rate applicable for funds left on deposit with us as of the date of death. Interest will accrue at an annual rate of 10% plus the interest rate applicable for funds left on deposit beginning with the date that is 31 calendar days from the latest of the dates below and continuing up to the date of payment: The date we receive due proof of loss following death. The date we receive sufficient information to determine our liability, the extent of our liability, and the appropriate payee legally entitled to the proceeds. The date that legal impediments to payment of proceeds that depend on the action of parties other than us are resolved and sufficient evidence of this resolution is provided to us. Legal impediments to payment include but are not limited to: the establishment of guardianships and conservatorships; the appointment and qualification of trustees, executors and administrators; and the submission of information required to satisfy state or federal reporting requirements.
ICC18 LR14GP-SPR-2 8 SPR-12995 (11/25) EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS If your Spouse commits suicide while sane or insane within two years of the date Spouse insurance starts, we will refund to the Beneficiary any Premiums paid instead of paying a death benefit. The two year period includes the period your Spouse was continuously covered under this rider and any previous group term life policy issued to the Policyholder during your Spouse’s lifetime. If your Spouse commits suicide while sane or insane within two years from the date an increase in Supplemental Spouse life insurance (other than a scheduled or automatic increase) became effective, we will pay a death benefit for the amount of insurance that was effective before the increase. We will refund to the Beneficiary any Premiums paid for the increased amount of insurance. Executed at our Home Office: 250 Marquette Avenue, Suite 900 Minneapolis, MN 55401 Amelia (Amy) J.

The date you enroll for Children’s coverage. The date we approve each Child’s Evidence of Insurability, if Evidence of Insurability is required.

Non-working days include time off for the following: vacations, personal holidays, weekends and holidays, approved nonmedical leave of absence and paid time off for nonmedical-related absences. The date your Child is no longer hospitalized, or confined at home under a doctor’s care, or receiving or applying to receive disability benefits from any source, if any of these conditions are true on the date that Child’s coverage would otherwise become effective. Exception: This does not apply to a newborn. Your eligible newborn Child is automatically covered for the first 31 days after birth. This includes an adopted newborn Child who is placed with you within 31 days of birth. The coverage amount(s) will be the same as for your other eligible Children. If you do not already have Children’s coverage under this rider, then Contributory coverage for the newborn will be at the lowest level available. If you do not already have Children’s coverage under this rider, then Child coverage beyond the 31st day is subject to the conditions regarding application and Active Employment. If you have coverage under this rider and you acquire a new eligible Child due to birth, marriage or adoption, then the newly eligible Child will be covered automatically from the date of the event. If an adopted newborn Child is placed with you within 31 days of birth, the “event” will be the date of birth. If an adopted Child is placed with you more than 31 days after birth, the “event” will be the date of placement. No additional premium is required.

The date your Child is no longer hospitalized, or confined at home under a doctor’s care, or receiving or applying to receive disability benefits from any source, if any of these conditions are true on the date that Child’s increased or additional coverage would otherwise start. Any decrease in coverage will take effect immediately but will not affect a payable claim that occurs prior to the decrease. CHANGE OF INSURANCE CARRIERS If your coverage is being provided under the CHANGE OF INSURANCE CARRIERS provision in the Certificate, then we will also provide continuity of Children’s coverage under the same conditions and for the same duration. Any benefits payable under this provision will be the lesser of the amount of coverage under the prior policy had it remained in force, or the amount of eligible Children’s coverage under our Policy. We will reduce our payment by any amount paid under the prior policy. If Children’s coverage under this provision ends while the Policy is in force, and your Children are not otherwise eligible for insurance under the Policy, then your Children’s coverage will be eligible for conversion as described in the CONVERSION provision. If your Children were not covered under the Employer's prior policy on the date that policy terminated, then the EFFECTIVE DATE OF COVERAGE provision will apply.
ICC18 LR14GP-CHR-2 5 CHR-12995 (11/25) TERMINATION OF COVERAGE Coverage for each Child ends on the earliest of the following: The date this rider terminates. The date the Child is no longer an eligible Child as defined by this rider. Eligibility of a Child who is incapable of self-sustaining employment due to physical or intellectual disability ends when there is no longer evidence satisfactory to us that the incapacity is continuing. This rider terminates on the earliest of the following: The date your life insurance terminates. The date this rider is terminated for all Employees under the Policy. The date this rider is terminated for the eligible class of Employees to which you belong. The date you voluntarily cancel this rider in Writing, as allowed by the Employer unless prohibited by federal and state law. The date you no longer have an eligible Child as defined by this rider. The end of the period for which Premiums are paid if the next Premium is not paid by its due date, subject to the Policy’s grace period. If coverage for your Children ends and this rider terminates because you no longer have an eligible Child as defined by this rider, then you should notify the Policyholder to cancel this rider. We will pay benefits for a loss that occurs while your Child is insured under this rider. CONVERSION You may convert Children’s life insurance, without Evidence of Insurability, to an individual life insurance policy if a Child’s life insurance under this rider stops for any reason other than nonpayment of Premium, your voluntary cancellation of this rider, your Child reaching the termination age under this rider, or your death. You may also convert any part of Children’s life insurance that reduces due to your change from one eligible class to another or a Policy change. If you have made an absolute assignment of insurance, only the current owner may apply for conversion under this paragraph. Your Child may convert Children’s life insurance, without Evidence of Insurability, to an individual life insurance policy if that Child’s life insurance under this rider stops because your Child reaches the termination age under this rider, or because of your death. If a Child is too young to contract for life insurance after your death, then a parent or a court- appointed guardian of the Child may apply for conversion of that Child’s coverage. Only life insurance is eligible for conversion. Conversion does not include any additional benefits such as accelerated death benefits, accidental death and dismemberment benefits, or waiver of premium benefits. Any amounts of coverage for which your Child remains eligible under the Policy are not eligible for conversion. To convert Children’s life insurance, application must be made and the first premium paid to us within 31 days of the date any part of a Child’s life insurance under this rider terminates (the “conversion period”). You will be given Written notice, in person or at your last known address, of your conversion right at least 15 days before the date any part of Children’s life insurance ends. Your right to convert will expire on the later of 16 days after you are given such notice or the end of the conversion period, but in no event will your right to convert extend beyond 60 days after the expiration of the conversion period. Any extension of time allowed for returning the completed application and first premium will not change the length of the conversion period itself. Application for conversion may be for the entire amount of Children’s life insurance that is terminating under this rider, or a lesser amount. The maximum amount of Children’s life insurance coverage eligible for conversion will be reduced by any amount of Children’s life insurance for which you become eligible under any group policy within 31 days after the beginning of the conversion period. Premiums for the conversion policy will be based on our rates then in use, the form and amount of insurance, your Child’s class of risk, and your Child’s attained age at the beginning of the conversion period. The conversion policy may be any individual life insurance policy then customarily offered by us for conversion, other than term insurance. The conversion policy will not include any additional benefits. When we accept the application and first premium, the conversion policy will become effective on the 32nd day after the date the life insurance under the Policy terminated.
ICC18 LR14GP-CHR-2 6 CHR-12995 (11/25) During the conversion period, Children’s life insurance will continue under the terms of this rider. If your Child dies within the conversion period, any life insurance amount that was eligible for conversion will be payable as a death benefit under the Policy and any premiums paid for conversion will be refunded to the Beneficiary. INCONTESTABILITY Any statement made by you or your Child is considered a representation and not a warranty. We will not use such statement to avoid insurance, reduce benefits or defend a claim unless the statement is included in a Written statement of insurability which has been Signed by you or your Child and a copy of such statement of insurability has been given to you or to the Beneficiary. Except for fraud, we will not use such statement relating to insurability to contest life insurance after it has been in force for two years during your Child’s lifetime. Except for fraud, we will not use such statement to contest an increase or benefit addition to such insurance, after the increase or benefit has been in force for two years during your Child’s lifetime. Fraud in the procurement of coverage under the Policy is only contestable after the coverage has been in force for two years from its effective date when permitted by applicable law in the governing jurisdiction. The statement on which any contest is based must be material to the risk accepted or the hazard assumed by us. LIFE INSURANCE BENEFITS We pay a death benefit to the Beneficiary if we receive Written proof that your Child died while Children’s insurance under this rider is in force. See the CONVERSION provision for information about death benefits payable during the conversion period following your death. The death benefit is the amount of Children’s life insurance on that Child for the eligible class as shown on the SCHEDULE OF BENEFITS in effect on the date of your Child’s death minus any amount paid under the Accelerated Death Benefit Rider. NOTICE OF CLAIM AND PROOF OF LOSS A claim form is available from the Employer or us. The process for completing the claim form and submitting the claim form will be explained in the claim form paperwork. Proof of loss, including any attachments indicated on the claim form as required, should be sent directly to us at the address indicated on the form. We may also require information from the Employer in order to verify eligibility. Proof of loss consists of a certified copy of your Child’s death certificate or other lawful evidence providing equivalent information, and proof of the claimant’s interest in the proceeds. We will review proof of loss we receive in order to determine our liability and the correct payee(s). If we approve the claim, we will pay the benefits subject to the terms of this rider. BENEFICIARY You are the Beneficiary for proceeds that become payable at your Child’s death under this rider. If you have made an absolute assignment of your insurance, then during your lifetime the current owner is the Beneficiary. You, or the current owner if ownership was assigned, are automatically the Beneficiary for these proceeds and this designation may not be changed. See the Portability Rider for information about the eligible Beneficiary for continued coverage after your death. Please refer to the LIFE INSURANCE BENEFITS section for more information about payment.

ICC18 LR14GP-CHR-2 7 CHR-12995 (11/25) PAYMENT OF PROCEEDS To be eligible to receive proceeds, the Beneficiary must be living on the date of your Child’s death. Exception: If your Child dies during the conversion period following your death and you would otherwise have been the Beneficiary, we will pay the proceeds to your estate. If the Beneficiary is eligible to receive proceeds but dies before receiving them, we will pay the proceeds to the Beneficiary’s estate. We will pay the death benefit to the Beneficiary in one sum or in a method comparable to one sum. Other methods of payment may be made available to the Beneficiary at the time of claim. Any payment we make in good faith will discharge our liability to the extent of such payment. PAYMENT OF INTEREST We pay interest on the death benefit proceeds, accruing from the date of your Child’s death up to the date of payment. The minimum interest rate payable will be the interest rate applicable for funds left on deposit with us as of the date of death. Interest will accrue at an annual rate of 10% plus the interest rate applicable for funds left on deposit beginning with the date that is 31 calendar days from the latest of the dates below and continuing up to the date of payment: The date we receive due proof of loss following death. The date we receive sufficient information to determine our liability, the extent of our liability, and the appropriate payee legally entitled to the proceeds.

Legal impediments to payment include but are not limited to: the establishment of guardianships and conservatorships; the appointment and qualification of trustees, executors and administrators; and the submission of information required to satisfy state or federal reporting requirements. EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS If your Child commits suicide while sane or insane within two years of the date that Child's insurance starts, we will refund to the Beneficiary any Premiums paid instead of paying a death benefit. The two year period includes the period your Child was continuously covered under this rider and any previous group term life policy issued to the Policyholder during your Child’s lifetime. If your Child commits suicide while sane or insane within two years from the date an increase in Supplemental Children's life insurance (other than a scheduled or automatic increase) became effective, we will pay a death benefit for the amount of insurance that was effective before the increase. We will refund to the Beneficiary any Premiums paid for the increased amount of insurance. Executed at our Home office: 250 Marquette Avenue, Suite 900 Minneapolis, MN 55401 Amelia (Amy) J.

Our review of the appeal will be conducted by someone who is neither the individual who made the original adverse benefit determination that is the subject of the appeal, nor the subordinate of such individual. If the determination was based in whole or in part on a medical judgment, our review of the appeal will include consultation with a health care professional who has appropriate training and experience in the field of medicine involved in the medical judgment. This health care professional will be someone who is neither an individual who was consulted in connection with the original adverse benefit determination that is the subject of the appeal, nor the subordinate of such individual. Prior to rendering an adverse decision on appeal, we will provide notice to you of any new or additional evidence considered, relied upon, or generated by the plan, insurers or other persons making the benefit determination. We will also notify you if we have new or additional rationale for an adverse appeal determination. We will then provide you with a reasonable opportunity to review and respond to this new information before making our decision.

Following our review of the appeal, we will provide you with a written decision of the final determination of the claim. This decision will be issued as soon as possible, but no more than 45 days after the receipt of the appeal unless an extension is needed. An extension of 45 days will be allowed for making this decision if special circumstances are present. You will be given notice of any such extension before the end of the 45-day period. The notice will state the special circumstances involved and the date a decision is expected. If an extension is needed due to your failure to submit information necessary to decide a claim, the extension period will be tolled from the date on which notification of the extension is sent to you until the date on which you respond to the request for additional information. If we send an adverse benefit determination following our review of the appeal, the notice of the determination will be written in an understandable manner and include the following: The specific reason(s) for the adverse benefit determination. Reference to the specific provision on which the determination is based. A statement that you are entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information relevant to your claim.

Conversion is available for any terminating life insurance amount(s) that are not eligible for portability. See the CONVERSION provision of the riders. Any amounts of life insurance for which an application for conversion has been received by us are not eligible for portability under this rider.

ICC18 LR14GP-PTS-2 6 PTS-12995 (11/25) BENEFICIARY FOR PORTABILITY AT DEATH OR DIVORCE For coverage continued under this provision, the Beneficiary is named by your Spouse to receive any proceeds payable at your Spouse’s death. While your Spouse’s coverage is in force under this provision, your Spouse may change the Beneficiary by Written request on a form that is acceptable to us. A Beneficiary designation form is available from us. An accepted designation will take effect as of the date it is Signed but will not affect any payment we make or action we take before receiving the Signed form. If your Spouse has made an absolute assignment of insurance, only the current owner may change the Beneficiary designation for proceeds payable at your Spouse’s death. If an irrevocable Beneficiary is named for proceeds payable at your Spouse’s death, the Beneficiary designation can only be changed with the consent of the irrevocable Beneficiary. There can be one or more Beneficiaries for proceeds payable at your Spouse’s death. If two or more Beneficiaries are named and their shares are not specified in the Beneficiary designation, then the Beneficiaries will share any insurance proceeds equally. If a primary Beneficiary does not survive your Spouse, their share will be payable to the remaining primary Beneficiaries. One or more contingent Beneficiaries may be named to receive the proceeds in the event that all of the primary Beneficiaries named do not survive your Spouse. Your Spouse is the Beneficiary for all other proceeds payable. This Beneficiary designation may not be changed. If your Spouse has made an absolute assignment of insurance, then during your Spouse’s lifetime those proceeds are payable to the current owner. PAYMENT OF PROCEEDS FOR PORTABILITY AT DEATH OR DIVORCE For coverage continued under this provision, a Spouse death benefit is payable if your Spouse dies while the Spouse Life Insurance Rider is in force. Other benefits are payable if a covered loss occurs while coverage is in force, and while your Spouse is living. See the CONVERSION provision of the Children’s Life Insurance Rider for information about death benefits payable during the conversion period following your Spouse’s death. To be eligible to receive proceeds, the Beneficiary must be living on the date of your Spouse’s or Child’s death or loss under any rider. Exception: If your Child dies during the conversion period following your Spouse’s death and your Spouse would otherwise have been the Beneficiary, we will pay the Child death benefit proceeds to your Spouse’s estate. If the Beneficiary is eligible to receive proceeds but dies before receiving them, we will pay the proceeds to the Beneficiary’s estate. If there is no eligible Beneficiary, we will pay the proceeds to your Spouse’s estate. MISSTATEMENT OF EVIDENCE OF INSURABILITY FOR PORTABILITY AT DEATH OR DIVORCE If your Spouse’s Premium rates are based on Evidence of Insurability as provided on your Spouse’s application for portability, and your Spouse has misstated any information requested on the application for portability such that the lower Premium rates would not have been approved by us, then we will adjust your Spouse’s Premium to the standard portability Premium rates. Any back Premium due as a result of this adjustment will be required. We will not adjust your Spouse’s Premium after coverage has been continued under this rider for two years during your Spouse’s lifetime. GRACE PERIOD FOR PORTABILITY AT DEATH OR DIVORCE Your Spouse has a grace period of 31 days for the payment of any Premium due. During the grace period coverage will remain in force. If full Premium payment is not received by us by the due date, we will give written notification to your Spouse that if the Premium is not paid by the end of the grace period then all coverage will end on the last day of the grace period. If we fail to give such written notice, coverage will continue in effect until the date such notice is given. We may extend the grace period by giving written notice of such intent to your Spouse, and such notice will specify the date all coverage will terminate if the Premium remains unpaid. Your Spouse is required to pay a pro rate Premium for any period coverage was in force during the grace period. Premium payment is required for any grace period, any extension of such period, and any period for which coverage was in effect and Premium was not paid.

The date your Spouse attains age 75. The date your Spouse dies. For each Child’s coverage, the date the Child is no longer an eligible Child as defined by the Children’s Life Insurance Rider. Coverage of a Child who is incapable of self-sustaining employment due to physical or intellectual disability ends when there is no longer evidence satisfactory to us that the incapacity is continuing. For Children’s coverage, the date there are no longer any eligible Children covered under the Children’s Life Insurance Rider. If your Spouse is continuing coverage under this provision and then later your Spouse becomes eligible as an Active Employee under the Policy, then any amount(s) of coverage continued under this rider will be reduced by the amount(s) of coverage your Spouse has as an Active Employee. Any unearned Premiums paid for ported coverage will be refunded. CONVERSION FOR TERMINATION OF PORTABILITY AT DEATH OR DIVORCE Your Spouse may convert any life insurance amounts that stop when portability under this provision ends for any reason other than nonpayment of Premium, or your Spouse’s death, or your Child reaching the termination age under the Children’s Life Insurance Rider. Conversion is also available for any part of Spouse life insurance that reduces due to a BENEFIT REDUCTION as described on the SCHEDULE OF BENEFITS of any rider or a Policy change. Conversion is also available for any part of Children’s life insurance that reduces due to a Policy change. See the CONVERSION provision of the rider(s). If your Spouse has made an absolute assignment of insurance, only the current owner may apply for conversion under this paragraph. Your Child may convert any Children’s life insurance amount that stops under the Children’s Life Insurance Rider due to your Child reaching the termination age under that rider, or when portability under this rider ends due to your Spouse’s death. If a Child is too young to contract for life insurance after your Spouse’s death, then a parent or a court-appointed guardian of the Child may apply for conversion of that Child’s coverage.
