Important Notice
Rollup Rate Change Effective June 1, 2013

Current Rollup Rate: 6.50%
Effective 6/1/13: 6.00%

ATHENE Benefit 10sm Enhanced Benefit Rider
Current Rollup Rate: 8.00%
Effective 6/1/13: 7.50%

Hurry ... on June 1 we're reducing the rollup percentage on our ATHENE Choice Series Income riders and ATHENE Benefit 10 Enhanced Benefit Rider by 50 basis points in response to today's persistently low interest rate environment. Take action today to secure our current rates for your clients! Visit our Sales Resource Center now for product info and availability.

Current interest rates dictate the reserves insurance companies must maintain for future obligations they expect to pay to customers, including withdrawal benefits. Reserve requirements for 2013 are determined by rates in the corporate bond market for the 12-month period ending this June. Rates have declined to date and we do not expect significant improvement for the remainder of the period. Conservatively managing this risk protects our business and is a clear signal of our long-term commitment to our customers.

Remember, this rollup rate reduction takes effect June 1. To receive the current rate, complete application packages must be signed and dated 5/31/12 or earlier and received in good order in our service center by June 7, 2013.

Applications may be submitted by overnight mail to the following address:

Athene Annuity & Life Assurance Company
6425 Powers Ferry Road, Suite 300
Atlanta, GA 30339
