Glossary

This prospectus is written in plain English. However, there are some technical words or terms that are capitalized and are used as defined terms throughout the prospectus. For your convenience, we included this glossary to define these terms. 

NOTE: Cross references in this Updating Summary Prospectus are to the sections of the Statutory Prospectus where you can find more detailed information.

Accumulation Phase - the first phase of your Contract before you request Annuity Payments. The Accumulation Phase begins on the Issue Date.

Annuity Phase - the phase the Contract is in once Annuity Payments begin.

Buffer - for each Index Option with the Index Precision Strategy and Index Performance Strategy, this is the negative Index Return that we absorb over the duration of a Term (which can be either one, three, or six years) before applying a negative Performance Credit. We do not apply the Buffer annually on a 3-year or 6-year Term Index Option. The Index Precision Strategy Buffers are 10%, and Index Performance Strategy Buffers are either 10% or 20%. Buffers do not change. Restrictions on the availability of the Buffers are discussed in Appendix A - Investment Options Available Under the Contract and in Appendix G - Material Contract Variations by State and Issue Date.

Cap - for any Index Option with the Index Protection Strategy with Cap, Index Performance Strategy, or Index Guard Strategy, this is the upper limit on positive Index performance after application of any Participation Rate over the duration of a Term (which can be either one, three, or six years) and the maximum potential Credit for an Index Option. We do not apply the Cap annually on a 3-year or 6-year Term Index Option. On each Term Start Date, we set a Cap for each Index Option with the Index Protection Strategy with Cap, Index Performance Strategy, and Index Guard Strategy. The Caps applicable to your Contract are shown on the Index Options Statement.

Charge Base - the Contract Value on the preceding Quarterly Contract Anniversary (or the initial Purchase Payment received on the Issue Date if this is before the first Quarterly Contract Anniversary), increased by the dollar amount of subsequent Purchase Payments, and reduced proportionately for subsequent withdrawals you take or financial adviser fees that you choose to have us pay from this Contract (including any withdrawal charge) and deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses. All withdrawals you take reduce the Charge Base, even Penalty-Free Withdrawals. We use the Charge Base to determine the next product and rider fees we deduct.

Contract - the individual flexible purchase payment index-linked and variable deferred annuity contract described by this prospectus. The Contract may also be referred to as a registered index-linked annuity, or "RILA".

Contract Value - the current value of the Purchase Payments you invest. On any Business Day, your Contract Value is the sum of your Index Option Value(s) and Variable Account Value. Variable Account Value fluctuates each Business Day that money is held in the Variable Option. Index Option Value is increased or decreased on each Term End Date to reflect Credits, which can be negative with the Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy. A negative Credit means that you can lose principal and previous earnings. The Index Option Values for each Index Option with the Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy also reflect the Daily Adjustment on every Business Day other than the Term Start Date or Term End Date. All withdrawals you take reduce Contract Value dollar for dollar, even Penalty-Free Withdrawals, and financial adviser fees that you choose to have us pay from this Contract. Contract Value is also reduced dollar for dollar for deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses. However, Contract Value does not reflect future fees and expenses we would apply on surrender. The cash surrender value reflects all Contract fees and expenses we would apply on surrender (including any withdrawal charge), as well as any applicable Daily Adjustment.

Contract Year - any period of twelve months beginning on the Issue Date or a subsequent Contract Anniversary.

Credit - the return you receive on the Term End Date from the Index Options. Credits may be positive, zero, or, in some instances, negative if you select the Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, or Index Performance Strategy. A negative Credit means that you can lose principal and previous earnings.

Crediting Method - a method we use to calculate Credits for the Index Options.

Daily Adjustment - how we calculate Index Option Values on days other than the Term Start Date or Term End Date for each Index Option with the Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy as discussed in section 7, Expenses and Adjustments - Daily Adjustment for the Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and

Index Performance Strategy; and Appendix C. The Daily Adjustment approximates the Index Option Value that will be available on the Term End Date. It is the estimated present value of the future Performance Credit that we will apply on the Term End Date.

Declared Protection Strategy Credit (DPSC) - the positive Credit you receive on a Term End Date for any Index Option with the Index Protection Strategy with DPSC if Index performance is zero or positive. You receive a Credit equal to the DPSC on the Term End Date if the current Index Value is equal to or greater than the Index Value on the Term Start Date. You will not receive a negative Credit if the Index Value decreases from the Term Start Date to the Term End Date. We set the DPSCs on each Term Start Date. This method of calculation is also referred to as "step-up". The DPSCs applicable to your Contract are shown on the Index Options Statement. On our website and in other materials you may receive, "Trigger Rate" may be used to describe the DPSC that can change on each Term Start Date, and "Performance Credit" may be used to describe the DPSC you receive on a Term End Date.

Excess Withdrawal - while you are taking Income Payments, this is the amount of any withdrawal you take during an Income Benefit Year (including any financial adviser fees that you choose to have us pay from this Contract) that causes the total amount withdrawn in that year to exceed the annual maximum Income Payment. However, we do not consider payments made under our minimum distribution program to be Excess Withdrawals. We treat any portion of a withdrawal you take during the Income Benefit Year that is not an Excess Withdrawal as an Income Payment. Excess Withdrawals reduce your Contract Value, future Income Payments, Guaranteed Death Benefit Value, and may end your Contract. The Income Benefit is discussed in section 11.

Financial Professional - the person who advises you regarding the Contract.

Floor - for any Index Option with the Index Guard Strategy, this is the maximum amount of negative Index Return you absorb as a negative Performance Credit. The Floors are -10% and do not change.

Fund - the AZL Government Money Market Fund, the underlying fund in which the Variable Option invests.

Guaranteed Death Benefit Value - the guaranteed value that is available to your Beneficiary(ies) on the first death of any Determining Life during the Accumulation Phase. The Guaranteed Death Benefit Value is either total Purchase Payments reduced proportionately for withdrawals you take (including any withdrawal charge) if you select the Traditional Death Benefit, or the Maximum Anniversary Value if you select the Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit. All withdrawals you take reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value, even Penalty-Free Withdrawals, and any financial adviser fees that you choose to have us pay from this Contract. However, we do not reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit Value for deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses. These deductions will, however, reduce the Contract Value we use to calculate the Maximum Anniversary Value.

Income Benefit - a benefit that was automatically included in your Contract at issue which is described in section 11. The Income Benefit has an additional rider fee and is intended to provide a payment stream for life in the form of partial withdrawals.

Income Payments - the guaranteed payments we make to you under the Income Benefit for the lifetime(s) of the Covered Person(s) that are generally based on the Contract Value and Lifetime Income Percentage for the payment type you select. Payment types include single or joint payments under either the Level Income or Increasing Income payment options. However, if you choose the Level Income payment option and meet certain age requirements, your initial annual maximum Income Payment will not be less than the Level Income Guarantee Payment Percentage multiplied by your total Purchase Payments reduced proportionately for withdrawals you take (including any withdrawal charge). All withdrawals you take reduce your total Purchase Payments, even Penalty-Free Withdrawals, and any financial adviser fees that you choose to have us pay from this Contract. However, we do not reduce your total Purchase Payments for deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses. Income Payments are discussed in section 11.

Income Period - the period your Contract is in if you take Income Payments. The Income Period occurs during the Accumulation Phase and starts on the Income Benefit Date.

Index (Indexes) - one (or more) of the nationally recognized third-party broad based equity securities price return Indexes or exchange-traded fund available to you under your Contract as described in Appendix B.

Index Anniversary - a twelve-month anniversary of the Index Effective Date or any subsequent Index Anniversary. It is the date we apply Income Percentage Increases.

Index Effective Date - the first day we allocate assets to an Index Option and we establish Income Percentage Increases for each Eligible Person. The Index Effective Date is stated on the Index Options Statement and starts the first Index Year. You selected the Index Effective Date when you purchased the Contract.

Index Guard Strategy - one of the Crediting Methods available before the Income Period described in section 4, Index Options. The Index Guard Strategy calculates Performance Credits based on Index Returns subject to a Cap and -10% Floor. You can receive negative Performance Credits under this Crediting Method, which means you can lose principal and previous earnings.

Index Option(s) - the index-linked investments available to you under the Contract. Each Index Option is the combination of an Index, a Crediting Method, a Term length, and any applicable Buffer or Floor amount.

Index Option Base - an amount we use to calculate Credits and the Daily Adjustment. The Index Option Base is initially equal to the amounts you allocate to an Index Option. We reduce the Index Option Base proportionately for withdrawals you take and any financial adviser fees that you choose to have us pay from this Contract (including any withdrawal charge), and deductions we make for Contract fees and expenses. We increase/decrease it by the dollar amount of additional Purchase Payments allocated to the Index Option, transfers into or out of the Index Option, and any Credits.

Index Option Value - on any Business Day, it is equal to the portion of your Contract Value in a particular Index Option. We establish an Index Option Value for each Index Option you select. Each Index Option Value includes any Credits from previous Term End Dates and reflects proportional reductions for previous partial withdrawals you take and any financial adviser fees that you choose to have us pay from this Contract (including any withdrawal charge), and previous deductions we made for Contract fees and expenses. On each Business Day, other than the Term Start Date or Term End Date, the Index Option Values for each Index Option with the Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy also include an increase/decrease from the Daily Adjustment.

Index Performance Strategy - one of the Crediting Methods available before the Income Period described in section 4, Index Options. This Crediting Method offers 1-year, 3-year, and 6-year Terms. The Index Performance Strategy calculates Performance Credits based on Index Returns subject to any applicable Participation Rate, Cap, and a 10% or 20% Buffer. You can receive negative Performance Credits under this Crediting Method, which means you can lose principal and previous earnings. Restrictions on the availability of the Index Performance Strategy Index Options are discussed in Appendix A - Investment Options Available Under the Contract and in Appendix G - Material Contract Variations by State and Issue Date.

Index Precision Strategy - one of the Crediting Methods available before the Income Period described in section 4, Index Options. The Index Precision Strategy calculates Performance Credits based on Index Values and Index Returns subject to the Precision Rate and 10% Buffer. You can receive negative Performance Credits under this Crediting Method, which means you can lose principal and previous earnings.

Index Protection Strategy with Cap - one of the Crediting Methods available during the entire Accumulation Phase, including the Income Period, described in section 4, Index Options. The Index Protection Strategy with Cap provides a Protection Credit based on Index Returns subject to a Cap, but does not allow negative Protection Credits.

Index Protection Strategy with DPSC - one of the Crediting Methods available during the entire Accumulation Phase, including the Income Period, described in section 4, Index Options. The Index Protection Strategy with DPSC provides Credits equal to the DPSC on the Term End Date if the current Index Value is equal to or greater than the Index Value on the Term Start Date. The Index Protection Strategy with DPSC does not allow negative Credits. On our website and in other materials you may receive, "Index Protection Strategy with Trigger" may be used to describe the Index Protection Strategy with DPSC.

Index Return - the percentage change in Index Value from the Term Start Date to the Term End Date, which we use to determine the Credits. The Index Return is the Index Value on the Term End Date, minus the Index Value on the Term Start Date, divided by the Index Value on the Term Start Date. This method of calculation is also referred to as "point-to-point".

Index Value - an Index's closing market price at the end of the Business Day on the Term Start Date and Term End Date as provided by Bloomberg or another market source if Bloomberg is not available.

Index Year - a twelve-month period beginning on the Index Effective Date or a subsequent Index Anniversary.

Investment Options - the Index Options and Variable Option available under the Contract.

Issue Date - the date we issued the Contract. The Issue Date is stated in your Contract and starts your first Contract Year. Contract Anniversaries and Contract Years are measured from the Issue Date.

Maximum Anniversary Value Death Benefit - an optional benefit described in section 12 that has an additional rider fee and is intended to potentially provide a death benefit greater than the Traditional Death Benefit.

Non-Qualified Contract - a Contract that is not a Qualified Contract.

Owner - "you," "your" and "yours." The person(s) or entity designated at Contract issue and named in the Contract who may exercise all rights granted by the Contract.

Participation Rate - a percentage that is multiplied by any positive Index Return over the course of a Term in calculating the Performance Credit on the Term End Date. Participation Rates are used with the Index Performance Strategy and there is one Participation Rate per Index Option. The Participation Rate is only available on the Index Performance Strategy 3-year and 6-year Terms to Contracts issued since April 30, 2021. The Participation Rate is not available on Index Performance Strategy 1-year Terms, or on 3-year Terms that were available to Contracts issued before April 30, 2021. Index Options with a Participation Rate may allow you to receive more than the Index Return if the Index Return is positive, but the Participation Rate cannot boost Index Returns beyond any declared Cap. We do not apply the Participation Rate if the Index Return is zero or negative. We do not apply the Participation Rate annually. This method of calculation is also referred to as "enhanced upside". We set Participation Rates on each Term Start Date. The Participation Rates applicable to your Contract are shown on the Index Options Statement.

Performance Credit - the Credit you receive on a Term End Date from the Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy Index Options. We base Performance Credits on Index Values and Index Returns after application of any Cap, any Precision Rate, or any Buffer or Floor. Performance Credits can be negative. If Performance Credits are negative, you can lose principal and previous earnings.

Performance Lock - a feature that allows you to capture the current Index Option Value during the Term for each Index Option with the Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, and Index Performance Strategy. A Performance Lock applies to the total Index Option Value in an Index Option, and not just a portion of that Index Option Value. After the Lock Date, Daily Adjustments do not apply to a locked Index Option for the remainder of the Term and the locked Index Option Value will not receive a Performance Credit on the Term End Date.

Precision Rate - the positive Performance Credit you receive for any Index Option with the Index Precision Strategy if Index performance is zero or positive. You receive a Performance Credit equal to the Precision Rate on the Term End Date if the current Index Value is equal to or greater than the Index Value on the Term Start Date. We set a Precision Rate for each Index Precision Strategy Index Option on each Term Start Date. This method of calculation is also referred to as "step-up". The Precision Rates applicable to your Contract are shown on the Index Options Statement. On our website and in other materials you may receive, "Trigger Rate" may be used to describe the Precision Rate.

Purchase Payment - the money you put into the Contract.

Qualified Contract - a Contract purchased under a pension or retirement plan that qualifies for special tax treatment under sections of the Code (for example, 401(a) and 401(k) plans), Individual Retirement Annuities (IRAs), or Tax-Sheltered Annuities (referred to as TSA/403(b) Contracts).

Quarterly Contract Anniversary - the day that occurs three calendar months after the Issue Date or any subsequent Quarterly Contract Anniversary.

Term - the period of time, from the Term Start Date to the Term End Date, in which we measure Index Return to determine Credits.

Term End Date - the day on which a Term ends and we apply Credits. A Term End Date may only occur on an Index Anniversary. If a Term End Date does not occur on a Business Day, we consider it to occur on the next Business Day.

Term Start Date - the day on which a Term begins, and we set the DPSCs, Precision Rates, Caps, and Participation Rates for an Index Option. A Term Start Date may only occur on the Index Effective Date or an Index Anniversary. If a Term Start Date does not occur on a Business Day, we consider it to occur on the next Business Day.

Traditional Death Benefit - the guaranteed death benefit automatically provided by the Contract for no additional fee described in section 12.

Updated Information About Your Contract

The information in this Updating Summary Prospectus is a summary of certain Contract features that have changed since the Statutory Prospectus dated May 1, 2024. This may not reflect all of the changes that have occurred since you entered into your Contract.

Effective June 18, 2024, this product is no longer offered for sale. However, we continue to administer all in force Contracts.

Important Information You Should Consider About the Contract 

	FEES AND EXPENSES			Prospectus Location
Are There Charges or Adjustments for Early Withdrawals?	Yes, your Contract is subject to charges for early withdrawals. If you withdraw money within six years of your last Purchase Payment, you will be assessed a withdrawal charge of up to 8.5% of the Purchase Payment withdrawn, declining to 0% over that time period. For example, if you invest $100,000 in the Contract and make an early withdrawal, you could pay a withdrawal charge of up to $8,500. This loss will be greater if there is a negative Daily Adjustment, taxes, or tax penalties.   In addition, if you take a full or partial withdrawal (including financial adviser fees that you choose to have us pay from this Contract) from an Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, or Index Performance Strategy Index Option on a date other than the Term End Date, a Daily Adjustment will apply to the Index Option Value available for withdrawal. The Daily Adjustment also applies if before the Term End Date you take Income Payments, you execute a Performance Lock, you annuitize the Contract, we pay a death benefit, or we deduct Contract fees and expenses. The Daily Adjustment may be positive, negative, or equal to zero. A negative Daily Adjustment will result in a loss, and could result in a loss beyond the protection of the 10% or 20% Buffer, or -10% Floor, as applicable. The maximum potential loss from a negative Daily Adjustment is: -99% for the Index Precision Strategy and Index Performance Strategy; and -35% for the Index Guard Strategy. For example, if you allocate $100,000 to a 1-year Term Index Performance Strategy Index Option with 10% Buffer and later withdraw the entire amount before the Term has ended, you could lose up to $99,000 of your investment. This loss will be greater if you also have to pay a withdrawal charge, taxes, and tax penalties.   The Index Protection Strategy with DPSC and Index Protection Strategy with Cap are not subject to the Daily Adjustment.			Fee Tables   7. Expenses and Adjustments   Appendix C - Daily Adjustment
Are There Transaction Charges?	No. Other than withdrawal charges, and Daily Adjustments that may apply to withdrawals and other transactions from the Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, or Index Performance Strategy, there are no other transaction charges.			Not Applicable
Are There Ongoing Fees and Expenses?	Yes, there are ongoing fees and expenses. The table below describes the fees and expenses that you may pay each year, depending on the options you choose. Please refer to your Contract specifications page for information about the specific fees you will pay each year based on the options you have elected. These ongoing fees and expenses do not reflect any financial adviser fees paid to a Financial Professional from your Contract Value or other assets of the Owner. If such charges were reflected, these ongoing fees and expenses would be higher.   There is an implicit ongoing fee on Index Options to the extent that your participation in Index gains is limited by us through a DPSC, Precision Rate, or Cap. This means that your returns may be lower than the Index's returns. In return for accepting this limit on Index gains, you will receive some protection from Index losses. This implicit ongoing fee is not reflected in the tables below. Additionally, if we add Index Options with a guaranteed minimum Participation Rate less than 100%, the Participation Rate would be an implicit ongoing fee and limit Index gains.			Fee Tables   1. The Contract - Financial Adviser Fees   7. Expenses and Adjustments   Appendix A - Investment Options Available Under the Contract
	Annual Fee	Minimum	Maximum
	Base Contract(1)	1.95%	1.95%
	Investment Options(2) (Fund fees and expenses)	0.65%	0.65%
	Optional benefits available for an additional charge(3) (for a single optional benefit, if elected)	0.20%	0.20%

Index Options

The following is a list of Index Options currently available under the Contract. We may change certain features of the Index Options listed below (including the Index and the current limits on Index gains) and offer new Index Options. We will provide you with written notice before making any changes other than changes to current limits on Index gains. Information about current limits on Index gains is available at https://www.allianzlife.com/indexincomerates. During the Income Phase of the Income Benefit, you may not be able to invest in certain Index Options, as noted below.

Note: If amounts are removed from an Index Precision Strategy, Index Guard Strategy, or Index Performance Strategy Index Option before the Term End Date, we will apply a Daily Adjustment. This may result in a significant reduction in your Contract Value that could exceed any protection from Index loss that would be in place if such amounts were not removed from the Index Option until the Term End Date. The Daily Adjustment does not apply to the Index Protection Strategy with DPSC and Index Protection Strategy with Cap Index Options.

For more information about the Index Options' features, see section 4, Index Options, and section 6, Valuing Your Contract. For more information about Daily Adjustment, see section 7, Expenses and Adjustments - Daily Adjustment.

If we offer a new Index Option with a Buffer or Floor in the future, the Buffer or Floor will be no lower than 5% or -25%, respectively. The lowest DPSC, Precision Rate, Cap, or Participation Rate that we may establish if we add a new Index Option to the Contract are 0.05%, 0.10%, 0.10%, and 5.00%, respectively.
