In this prospectus, the words "we," "our" or "us" refer to NYLIAC and the words "you" or "your" refer to the policyowner. We have discontinued sales of this policy.

Beginning on January 1, 2021, as permitted by regulations adopted by the SEC, paper copies of the shareholder reports of the Eligible Portfolios available under your policy will no longer be sent by mail, unless you specifically request paper copies of the reports from the Variable Product Service Center ("VPSC"). Instead, the reports will be made available on a website, and you will be notified by mail each time a report is posted and provided with a website link to access the report.

If you already elected to receive shareholder reports electronically, you will not be affected by this change and you need not take any action. You may elect to receive shareholder reports and other communications from us electronically by contacting the VPSC.

You may elect to receive all future reports in paper free of charge. You can inform us that you wish to continue receiving paper copies of your shareholder reports by contacting the VPSC. Your election to receive reports in paper will apply to all Eligible Portfolios available under your policy.

POLICY FEATURES

LIFE INSURANCE PROTECTION--This policy offers lifetime insurance protection, with a life insurance benefit payable when the Primary Insured dies while the policy is in effect. Even though the policy offers the protection of permanent life insurance, it can lapse even if all planned premiums are paid on time.

CHOICE OF LIFE INSURANCE BENEFIT OPTIONS--You can choose either a level life insurance benefit equal to the face amount of your policy or a life insurance benefit that varies and is equal to the sum of your policy's face amount and Cash Value. If you choose a benefit that varies, the life insurance benefit will increase or decrease depending on the performance of the Allocation Alternatives you select. Your policy's life insurance benefit will never be less than the face amount of your policy. The face amount appears on the Policy Data Page of your policy. Under both options, a higher life insurance benefit may apply if necessary for

the policy to qualify as life insurance under the IRC. The policy proceeds we pay will be the sum of the life insurance benefit plus any rider death benefits less any loans (including any accrued loan interest).

FLEXIBLE PREMIUM PAYMENTS--You can decide the amount of premiums to pay and when to pay them, within limits. Although premium payments are flexible, we may require additional premium payments to keep the policy in effect. The policy may terminate if its Net Cash Value is insufficient to pay the policy's monthly charges. The Cash Surrender Value of your policy will fluctuate depending on the performance of the Allocation Alternatives you have chosen. The Cash Surrender Value also will fluctuate to reflect the premium payments you make and the charges we deduct.

LOANS, WITHDRAWALS, AND SURRENDERS--You can borrow against or withdraw money from your policy, within limits. Loans and withdrawals will reduce the policy's proceeds, Cash Surrender Value and Net Cash Value. You can also surrender your policy at any time. The Cash Surrender Value of your policy may increase or decrease depending on the performance of the Allocation Alternatives you select. We do not guarantee the Cash Surrender Value for your policy. If you surrender your policy or take a partial withdrawal during the first fifteen Policy Years or within fifteen years after you increase the face amount, we may apply a surrender charge. Loans, withdrawals, and surrenders may have tax consequences.

FACE AMOUNT INCREASES AND DECREASES--You may increase or decrease the face amount of your policy, within limits. We will apply a new schedule of surrender charges to any increase in your policy's face amount. We may also deduct a surrender charge for any reduction in the face amount.

Replacing existing insurance with any policy may not be to your advantage. In addition, it may not be to your advantage to borrow to purchase this policy or to take withdrawals from another policy that you already own to make premium payments under this policy.
