Definitions

Accumulation Unit—An accounting unit we use to calculate the Variable Accumulation Value prior to the Annuity Commencement Date. Each Investment Division of the Separate Account has a distinct variable Accumulation Unit value.

Accumulation Value—The sum of the Variable Accumulation Value, the Fixed Account Accumulation Value (if applicable), and the DCA Advantage Account Accumulation Value of a policy.

Adjusted Premium Payment—The total dollar amount of premium payments made under the policy and allocated to the Investment Divisions and DCA Advantage Account reduced by any withdrawals and applicable surrender charges in excess of any gain in the policy.

Allocation Options—The Investment Divisions of the Separate Account, any available Asset Allocation Model and the Fixed Account.

Annuity Commencement Date—The date on which we are to make the first Income Payment under the policy, which cannot be later than the date you attain age 85.

Base Contract Charge—Mortality and Expense Risk and Administrative Costs Charge (M&E Charge).

Business Day—Generally, any day on which the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is open for trading. Our Business Day ends at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time or the close of regular trading of the NYSE, if earlier.

Code—The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) Advantage Account Accumulation Value—The sum of premium payments and Breakpoint Credits allocated to the DCA Advantage Account, plus interest credited on those premium payments and Breakpoint Credits, less any transfers and partial withdrawals from the DCA Advantage Account, and less any surrender charges and policy service charges that may already have been deducted from the DCA Advantage Account. The DCA Advantage Account Accumulation Value will never be less than the DCA Advantage Account portion of the Nonforfeiture Value.

Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) Advantage Account—A non-variable Allocation Option to which you may allocate Premium Payments, subject to the limitations described on the Policy Data Page, and from which accounts are transferred to the Investment Divisions proportionally on a monthly basis. The DCA Advantage Account duration is shown on the Policy Data Page. We credit the DCA Advantage Account with a fixed interest rate. The benefits payable under the DCA Advantage Account (including principal and interest) are payable from NYLIAC’s general account and are subject to the claims-paying ability of NYLIAC.

Fixed Account—An account that is credited with a fixed interest rate which NYLIAC declares and is not part of the Separate Account. The benefits payable under the Fixed Account (including principal and interest) are payable from NYLIAC’s general account and are subject to the claims-paying ability of NYLIAC.

Fixed Account Accumulation Value—The sum of premium payments and, if allowable, transfers allocated to the Fixed Account, plus interest credited on those premium payments and, if allowable, transfers, less any transfers and partial withdrawals from the Fixed Account, and less any surrender charges, policy service charges and rider charges assessed on and deducted from the Fixed Account.

Fund—A mutual fund that has multiple series or Portfolios.

Investment Division—The variable investment options available under the policy. Each Investment Division invests exclusively in shares of a specified Portfolio.

NYLIAC, we, our or us—New York Life Insurance and Annuity Corporation.

Owner (you, your)—The individual(s) or entity(ies) designated as the Owner in the policy or as subsequently changed, who is entitled to exercise all rights under the policy.

Payment Year(s)—With respect to any premium payment, the year(s) beginning on the date such premium payment is made to the policy.

Policy Anniversary—An anniversary of the Policy Date shown on the Policy Data Page.

Policy Data Page—Page 2 of the policy which contains the policy specifications.

Policy Year—A year starting on the Policy Date. Subsequent Policy Years begin on each Policy Anniversary, unless otherwise indicated.

Portfolios—The mutual fund portfolios in which the corresponding Investment Divisions invest.

Separate Account—NYLIAC Variable Annuity Separate Account–III and NYLIAC Variable Annuity Separate Account–IV, a segregated asset account we established to receive and invest premium payments paid under the policies. The Separate Account’s Investment Divisions, in turn, purchase shares of Portfolios.

Surrender Charge Free Amount—You may withdraw a certain amount from your policy each Policy Year without having to pay a surrender charge on that amount. We call this the Surrender Charge Free Amount. For policies issued to policyowners age 75 and under, the maximum amount you may withdraw without a surrender charge in any given Policy Year is the greatest of either: (i) 10% of your Accumulation Value as of the last Policy Anniversary (10% of the premium payment if the withdrawal is made in the first Policy Year) less any prior surrender charge free withdrawals during the Policy Year; (ii) 10% of your Accumulation Value at the time of withdrawal, less any prior surrender charge free withdrawals during the Policy Year; or (iii) your Accumulation Value less accumulated premium payments. For policies issued to policyowners age 76-80, this percentage is 50%.

Variable Accumulation Value—The sum of the current Accumulation Unit value(s) for each of the Investment Divisions multiplied by the number of Accumulation Units held in the respective Investment Division.

Important Information You Should Consider About The Policy

	FEES, EXPENSES AND ADJUSTMENTS	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
Are There Charges for Early Withdrawals?	Yes. If you withdraw more than the Surrender Charge Free Amount from your policy within 7 years following your last premium payment, you will be assessed a surrender charge. The maximum surrender charge is 8% of the amount withdrawn during the first Payment Years declining to 0% over that seven-year period. For example, if you make an early withdrawal within the first Payment Year, you could pay a surrender charge of up to $8,000 on a $100,000 investment. The withdrawal amount could be reduced by taxes or tax penalties.	CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS – Transaction Expenses – Surrender Charges FEE TABLE
Are There Transaction Charges?	Yes. In addition to surrender charges, we reserve the right to assess a transaction charge if you transfer cash value between investment options more than 12 times a year, or if a premium payment is returned for insufficient funds. Although we do not currently charge for such transaction, we reserve the right to charge up to $30 per transaction. A loan processing fee may apply if you take a policy loan.	CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS – Transaction Expenses FEE TABLE
Are There Ongoing Fees and Expenses?	Yes. The table below describes the fees and expenses that you may pay each year, depending on the investment options and optional benefits you choose. Please refer to your Policy Data Page for information about the specific fees you will pay each year based on the options you have elected.

The range in fees and expenses is for the year ended December 31, 2025 and will change from year to year. 3 As a percentage of the guarantee under the optional benefit.
	Because your policy is customizable, the choices you make affect how much you will pay. To help you understand the cost of owning your policy, the following table shows the lowest and highest cost you could pay each year, based on current charges. This estimate assumes that you do not take withdrawals from the policy, which could add surrender charges that substantially increase costs.
	LOWEST ANNUAL COST: $1,611.50	HIGHEST ANNUAL COST $3,902.86

	RISKS	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
Is There a Risk of Loss from Poor Performance?	Yes. You can lose money by investing in this policy.	PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY
Is This a Short-Term Investment?	No. This policy is not designed for short-term investing and is not appropriate for an investor who readily needs access to cash. Surrender charges apply for up to 7 years following your last premium payment. They will reduce the value of your policy if you withdraw money during that time. Withdrawals may also be subject to federal and state income taxes and tax penalties. The benefits of tax deferral and living benefit protections also mean the policy is more beneficial to investors with a long time horizon. If you purchased the IPP, IPP II, GIPR or GIPR 2.0, you will not receive a benefit under the rider unless you hold the policy for at least the specified holding period applicable to the rider.	PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY

What Are the Risks Associated with the Investment Options?	•An investment in this policy is subject to the risk of poor investment performance and can vary depending on the performance of the variable investment options (e.g., Portfolios) and guaranteed options (e.g., the Fixed Account and DCA Advantage Account) you choose. •Each investment option, including the Fixed Account and DCA Advantage Account, has its own unique risks. •You should review the prospectuses for the available Portfolios and the description in this prospectus of the Fixed Account and the DCA Advantage Account before making an investment decision.	PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY
What Are the Risks Related to the Insurance Company?	An investment in the policy is subject to the risks related to NYLIAC, including that any obligations, guarantees, and benefits of the policy are subject to the claims-paying ability of NYLIAC. If NYLIAC experiences financial distress, it may not be able to meet its obligations to you. More information about NYLIAC is available upon request from NYLIAC by calling the VPSC at 1-800-598-2019.	PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY
	RESTRICTIONS	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
Are There Limits on the Investment Options?	Yes. •We limit the number of Investment Divisions you may choose. You may allocate premium payments and Accumulation Value to up to 18 separate Investment Divisions, plus the Fixed Account and DCA Advantage Account, some of which may not be available under your policy. •We reserve the right to charge $30 for each transfer when you transfer money between Investment Divisions in excess of 12 times in a Policy Year. •Additional restrictions apply with respect to transfers to and from the Fixed Account and DCA Advantage Account. •We reserve the right to limit transfers in circumstances of frequent transfers or to prevent market timing. •We reserve the right to remove, close, or substitute Portfolios as investment options that are available under the policy.	THE POLICIES—Policy Application and Premium Payments, Transfers, and Limits on Transfers NYLIAC AND THE SEPARATE ACCOUNTS— Additions, Deletions, or Substitutions of Investments
Are There Restrictions on Policy Benefits?	Yes. •Certain optional benefits limit or restrict the investment options you may select under the policy. We may change these restrictions in the future. •Certain optional benefits may limit withdrawals or other rights under the policy. •Under certain benefits, a withdrawal could reduce the value of a benefit by more than the dollar amount of the withdrawal and/or could terminate the benefit. •You are required to have a minimum Accumulation Value for some optional benefits. •We may modify or discontinue an optional benefit at any time. •Some optional benefits cannot be cancelled without surrendering your policy.	DESCRIPTION OF BENEFITS

	TAXES	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
What are the Policy’s Tax Implications?	•Consult with a tax professional to determine the tax implications of an investment in, withdrawals from and surrenders of this policy. •If you purchase the policy through a tax-qualified plan or individual retirement account (IRA), such plan or IRA already provides tax deferral under the Code and there are fees and charges in an annuity that may not be included in such other investments. Therefore, the tax deferral of the policy does not provide additional benefits. •Premiums that are made on a pre-tax basis as well as earnings on your policy are taxed at ordinary income tax rates when you withdraw them, and you may have to pay a 10% penalty tax if you take a withdrawal before age 59½.	FEDERAL TAX MATTERS
	CONFLICTS OF INTEREST	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
How are Investment Professionals Compensated?	Your registered representative may receive compensation for selling this policy to you, in the form of commissions, asset-based compensation, allowances for expenses, and other compensation programs. Your registered representative may have a financial incentive to offer or recommend this policy over another investment.	DISTRIBUTION AND COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS
Should I Exchange My Policy?	Your registered representative may have a financial incentive to offer you a new policy in place of the one you own. You should consider exchanging your policy if you determine, after comparing the features, fees, risks of both policies, and any fees or penalties to terminate the existing policy, that it is in your best interest to purchase the new policy rather than continue to own your existing policy.

Definitions

Accumulation Value—The sum of the Variable Accumulation Value, the Fixed Account Accumulation Value (if applicable), and the DCA Advantage Account Accumulation Value of a policy.

Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) Advantage Account Accumulation Value—The sum of premium payments allocated to the DCA Advantage Account, plus interest credited on those premium payments, less any transfers and partial withdrawals from the DCA Advantage Account, and less any surrender charges, policy service charges and rider charges deducted from the DCA Advantage Account. The DCA Advantage Account Accumulation Value will never be less than the DCA Advantage Account portion of the Nonforfeiture Value.

Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) Advantage Account— A non-variable Allocation Option to which you may allocate Premium Payments, subject to the limitations described on the Policy Data Page, and from which amounts are transferred to the Investment Divisions proportionally on a monthly basis. The DCA Advantage Account duration is shown on the Policy Data Page. We credit the DCA Advantage Account with a fixed interest rate. The benefits payable under the DCA Advantage Account (including principal and interest) are payable from NYLIAC’s general account and are subject to the claims-paying ability of NYLIAC.

Investment Division—The variable investment options available under the policy. Each Investment Division invests exclusively in shares of a specified Portfolio.

NYLIAC, we, our or us—New York Life Insurance and Annuity Corporation.

Owner (you, your)—The individual(s) or entity(ies) designated as the Owner in the policy, or as subsequently changed after issue, who is entitled to exercise all rights under the policy.

Payment Year(s)—With respect to any premium payment, the year(s) beginning on the date such premium payment is made to the policy.

Policy Anniversary—An anniversary of the Policy Date shown on the Policy Data Page.

Policy Year—A year starting on the Policy Date. Subsequent Policy Years begin on each Policy Anniversary, unless otherwise indicated.

Portfolios —The mutual fund portfolios in which the corresponding Investment Divisions invest.

Separate Account—NYLIAC Variable Annuity Separate Account–III or NYLIAC Variable Annuity Separate Account–IV, each a segregated asset account we established to receive and invest premium payments paid under the policies.

Important Information You Should Consider About The Policy

	FEES, EXPENSES AND ADJUSTMENTS	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
Are There Charges for Early Withdrawals?	Yes. If you withdraw more than the Surrender Charge Free Amount from your policy within 7 years following your last premium payment, you will be assessed a surrender charge. The maximum surrender charge is 7% of the amount withdrawn during the first two Payment Years following the premium payment (8% during the first year for policies applied for before May 1, 2019) declining to 0% over that seven-year period. For example, if you make an early withdrawal within the first Payment Year, you could pay a surrender charge of up to $7,000 ($8,000 for policies applied for before May 1, 2019) on a $100,000 investment. The withdrawal amount could be reduced by taxes or tax penalties.	CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS – Transaction Expenses –Surrender Charges FEE TABLE
Are There Transaction Charges?	Yes. In addition to surrender charges, we reserve the right to assess a transaction charge if you transfer cash value between investment options more than 12 times a year, or if a premium payment is returned for insufficient funds. A loan processing fee may apply if you take a policy loan. Although we do not currently charge for such transactions, we reserve the right to charge up to $30 per transaction. A Rider Risk Charge Adjustment (“Cancellation Charge”) may apply if you discontinue the investment preservation rider.	CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS –Transaction Expenses FEE TABLE

	Because your policy is customizable, the choices you make affect how much you will pay. To help you understand the cost of owning your policy, the following table shows the lowest and highest cost you could pay each year, based on current charges. This estimate assumes that you do not take withdrawals from the policy, which could add surrender charges that substantially increase costs.

	RISKS	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
Is There a Risk of Loss from Poor Performance?	Yes. You can lose money by investing in this policy.	PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY

Is this a Short-Term Investment?	No. This policy is not designed for short-term investing and is not appropriate for an investor who readily needs access to cash. Surrender charges apply for up to 7 years following your last premium payment. They will reduce the value of your policy if you withdraw money during that time. Withdrawals may also be subject to federal and state income taxes and tax penalties. The benefits of tax deferral and living benefit protections also mean the policy is more beneficial to investors with a long time horizon. If you elect an investment preservation rider, you will not receive a benefit under the rider unless you hold the policy for at least the specified Holding Period applicable to the rider.	PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY
What are the Risks Associated with the Investment Options?	•An investment in this policy is subject to the risk of poor investment performance and can vary depending on the performance of the variable investment options (e.g., Portfolios) and guaranteed options (e.g., the Fixed Account and DCA Advantage Account) you choose. •Each investment option, including the Fixed Account and the DCA Advantage Account, has its own unique risks. •You should review the prospectuses for the available Portfolios and the description in this prospectus of the Fixed Account and the DCA Advantage Account before making an investment decision.	PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY
What are the Risks Related to the Insurance Company?	An investment in the policy is subject to the risks related to NYLIAC, including that any obligations, guarantees, and benefits of the policy are subject to the claims-paying ability of NYLIAC. If NYLIAC experiences financial distress, it may not be able to meet its obligations to you. More information about NYLIAC is available upon request from NYLIAC by calling the VPSC at 1-800-598-2019.	PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY
	RESTRICTIONS	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
Are There Limits on the Investments Options?	Yes. •We limit the number of Investment Divisions you may choose. You may allocate premium payments and Accumulation Value to up to 18 separate Investment Divisions, plus the Fixed Account and the DCA Advantage Account, some of which may not be available under your policy. •We reserve the right to charge $30 for each transfer when you transfer money between Investment Divisions in excess of 12 times in a Policy Year. •Additional restrictions apply with respect to transfers to and from the Fixed Account and the DCA Advantage Account. •We reserve the right to limit transfers in circumstances of frequent transfers or to prevent market timing. •We reserve the right to remove, close, or substitute Portfolios as investment options that are available under the policy.	THE POLICIES—Policy Application and Premium Payments, Transfers, and Limits on Transfers NYLIAC AND THE SEPARATE ACCOUNTS— Additions, Deletions, or Substitutions of Investments

Are There Restriction on Policy Benefits?	Yes. •Certain optional benefits limit or restrict the investment options you may select under the policy. We may change these restrictions in the future. •Certain optional benefits may limit withdrawals or other rights under the policy. •Under certain benefits, a withdrawal could reduce the value of a benefit by more than the dollar amount of the withdrawal and/or could terminate the benefit. •You are required to have a minimum Accumulation Value for some optional benefits. •We may modify or discontinue an optional benefit at any time. •Some optional benefits cannot be cancelled without surrendering your policy. •The amount of the death benefit available under certain optional benefits may vary depending on the date of death. Certain optional benefits may offer a lesser death benefit at issue and require that the policy be held for a minimum waiting period before the greater death benefit will be payable. If you die before the end of the minimum waiting period, the death benefit will be less than the greater death benefit available after the minimum waiting period. Additionally, where there is a reset of certain optional benefit riders, a new minimum waiting period will be required before the greater death benefit will be payable. If you die before the end of the new minimum waiting period, the death benefit may be less than the greater death benefit available after the new minimum waiting period.	DESCRIPTION OF BENEFITS
	TAXES	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
What are the Policy’s Tax Implications?	•Consult with a tax professional to determine the tax implications of an investment in, withdrawals from and surrenders of this policy. •If you purchase the policy through a tax-qualified plan or individual retirement account (IRA), such plan or IRA already provides tax deferral under the Code and there are fees and charges in an annuity that may not be included in such other investments. Therefore, the tax deferral of the policy does not provide additional benefits. •Premiums that are made on a pre-tax basis as well as earnings on your policy are taxed at ordinary income tax rates when you withdraw them, and you may have to pay a 10% penalty tax if you take a withdrawal before age 59½.	FEDERAL TAX MATTERS
	CONFLICTS OF INTEREST	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
How are the Investment Professionals Compensated?	Your registered representative may receive compensation for selling this policy to you, in the form of commissions, asset-based compensation, allowances for expenses, and other compensation programs. Your registered representative may have a financial incentive to offer or recommend this policy over another investment.	DISTRIBUTION AND COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS
