_______________________________
1 The information in this notice is subject to change and may be amended.  This notice relates to the separate accounts in the Lincoln DirectorSM product and is not an offer to sell mutual fund shares directly to the plan.
 
2 Funds that invest in small- and or/mid-size company stocks typically involve greater risk, particularly in the short term, than those investing in larger, more established companies.
3 An index is unmanaged, and one cannot invest directly in an index.
 
The performance data quoted above represents past performance; past performance does not guarantee future results.  Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so your account balance, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than your original cost.  Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted.  An investor should consider the investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses of the group variable annuity and the underlying funds carefully before investing.
 
These performance figures reflect the historical performance of the underlying funds prior to the subaccount inception date.  Investment management fees and contract fees have not been deducted.  If these fees had been included, this performance would have been lower.  Instances of double-digit returns are highly unusual and cannot be sustained.  Investors should also be aware that returns vary due to market conditions.
