SPECIAL TERMS

Important Information You Should Consider About The Contract

Overview of the Contract

Purpose

The Group Variable Annuity Contracts (the "Contracts") are designed and offered as funding vehicles for retirement plans maintained by state educational organizations, certain tax-exempt organizations, and IRA Contractholders and for taxed organizations in the case of the Section 401(a) and/or Section 401(k) Contracts and Corporate Nonqualified Deferred Compensation ("NQDC") Contracts.

Phases of the Contract

The Contract, like all deferred annuity policies, has two phases: the "accumulation phase" and the "income phase." During the accumulation phase, earnings accumulate on a tax-deferred basis and are taxed as ordinary income when you take them out of the Contract. The income phase occurs when you annuitize the Contract and begin receiving regular annuity payments from your Contract. The money you accumulate during the accumulation phase will largely determine the payments you receive during the income phase.

Accumulation Phase. With respect to the Section 401(a), Section 401(k) and NQDC Contracts, the employer and/or the employee will make contributions pursuant to the terms and conditions of the underlying retirement plan. A list of Investment Options in which you can invest is provided in the back of this prospectus. See Appendix: Investment Options Available Under the Contract. Each has its own investment strategies and risks, investment adviser(s), expense ratio, cand performance history.

Annuity (Income) Phase. Unless a Fixed Annuity is elected, a Participant will receive a lump sum payment at the end of the Accumulation Period. If a fixed annuity is chosen, the Participant will receive a stream of income payments.

Contract Features

Accessing Your Money. Subject to applicable federal tax law restrictions, a Participant at any time during his/her Accumulation Period and prior to his/her death may redeem all or a portion of the Units credited to the Accumulation Account. There is no redemption charge.

Death Benefit. If a Participant dies before the Annuity Purchase Date, subject to the terms of any underlying Plan, the Accumulation Account value will be paid to his/her beneficiary.

Loan Provisions. None

Optional Benefits. None

Tax Treatment. You can transfer money between investment choices without tax implications and earnings (if any) on your investments are generally tax-deferred. You are taxed only if you make a surrender or withdrawal.

Withdrawal Options. Participant may, at any time during his/her Accumulation Period and prior to his/her death, redeem all or a portion of the Units credited to the Accumulation Account. There is no redemption charge. A withdrawal will generally have federal income tax consequences which may include penalties. Other significant withdrawal restrictions may be imposed by the Code.

Benefits under the Contract

The following are the currently available benefits under the Contract.

Buying The Contract`

Credit of Purchase Payments

A Participant's initial Purchase Payment will be credited to the Participant's Accumulation Account to provide Units as of a Valuation Date for the Valuation Period, not later than (2) two business days after receipt of the Purchase Payment by TFLIC at 440 Mamaroneck Avenue, Harrison, New York 10528, if the Contract application and/or Participant's enrollment form is complete upon receipt, or (2) two business days after an application and/ or enrollment form which is incomplete upon receipt by TFLIC is made complete, provided that if such information is not made complete within five business days after receipt, (i) the prospective Participant will be informed of the reasons for the delay, and (ii) the initial Purchase Payment will be returned immediately and in full, unless the prospective Participant specifically consents to TFLIC retaining the Purchase Payment until such information is made complete.

Subsequent Purchase Payments will be credited to the Participant's Accumulation Account to provide Units as of the Valuation Date for the Valuation Period in which the Purchase Payment is received in good order by TFLIC.

Allocation of Purchase Payments

Upon receipt of a Purchase Payment, it will be credited to the Account and the Subaccount or Subaccounts thereof designated by the Participant in the form of Units. The number of Units to be credited is determined by dividing the dollar amount allocated to the particular Subaccount(s) by the Unit value of that Subaccount for the Valuation Date for the Valuation Period on which the Purchase Payment is received. The number of Units shall not be changed by any subsequent change in the value of a Unit, but the dollar allocation value of a Unit will vary in amount depending upon the investment experience of the applicable Subaccount.

Allocation instructions may be changed at any time by providing TFLIC with a correctly completed allocation form. Any change in allocations will be effective within 10 business days following receipt of the allocation form by TFLIC. If an allocation form is incorrectly completed, Purchase Payments will be credited in accordance with the most recent allocation form on record. TFLIC reserves the right to limit a Participant's right to change allocation instructions to four times a calendar year.

Surrendering Your Contract Or Making Withdrawals: Accessing The Money In Your Contract

Redemption During the Accumulation Period

For Section 403(b), Section 457 and Section 408(IRA) Contracts and subject to applicable federal tax law restrictions, a Participant at any time during his/her Accumulation Period and prior to his/her death may redeem all or a portion of the Units credited to the Accumulation Account. There is no redemption charge or minimum withdrawal amount.

The Accumulation Account value redeemed or the Units remaining after a partial redemption will be determined on the Valuation Date for the Valuation Period in which a written request for a redemption on a form approved by TFLIC is received by TFLIC. The Accumulation Account will be reduced by the lesser of the number of Units obtained by dividing the amount of the redemption request by the Unit value for that day or the number of Units remaining in the Accumulation Account.

A full or partial redemption payment will be made within seven days after receipt of the written request. A request for a partial redemption must specify the Subaccount(s) from which the partial withdrawal is to be made. Payment may be postponed as permitted by the 1940 Act. Currently, deferment is permissible only when the New York Stock Exchange is closed or trading is restricted, when an emergency exists as a result of which disposal of the interests in the Underlying Investment held by Variable Funds Subaccounts is not reasonably practicable or it is not reasonably practicable to determine fairly the value of these assets, or when the SEC has provided for such deferment for the protection of Participants.

A withdrawal will generally have federal income tax consequences which may include penalties. See "Federal Income Tax Status".

With respect to Section 401(a), Section 401(k) and NQDC Contracts, the ability to withdraw funds during the Accumulation Period is generally more limited. In each instance the underlying Plan document should be consulted to determine what options, if any, are available.

Redemption

A Participant may redeem at any time prior to the time an annuity benefit takes effect and prior to his/her death all or a portion of the Units credited to his/her Accumulation Account without any charge, subject to any limitations in the underlying Plan. There are no redemption charges.

A penalty tax may be payable under the Code upon the redemption of amounts from an Accumulation Account under the Contract and other significant withdrawal restrictions may be imposed by the Code. See "Federal Income Tax Status."

Additional Information About Fees

The following tables describe the fees and expenses that you will pay when buying, owning, and surrendering or making withdrawals from the Contract. The first table describes the fees and expenses that you will, directly or indirectly pay at the time that you buy the Contract, surrender or make withdrawals from the Contract, or transfer Contract value between investment options. State premium taxes may be deducted upon the purchase of a Fixed Annuity under the Contract.

The following table shows the fees and expenses that you will pay each year during the time that you own the Contract not including the fees and expenses of the Underlying Investments.

Annual Contract Expenses:

⁽¹⁾TFLIC reserves the right to deduct an annual contract charge from a Participant's Accumulation Account in accordance with the provisions of the Contracts. TFLIC has no present intention to impose such a charge, but it may do so in the future.

⁽²⁾TFLIC currently charges mortality and expense risk fees of 1.10% and reserves the right to charge maximum mortality and expense risk fees of up to 1.25% upon notice.

The next table shows the minimum and maximum total operating expenses charged by the Portfolio Companies that you may pay periodically during the time that you own the Contract. A complete list of the Portfolio Companies available under the Contract, including their annual expenses, may be found under Appendix: Investment Options Available Under the Contract.

Expense Examples:

These examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Contract with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts. These costs include Separate Account annual expenses and the fees and expenses of the Underlying Investments.

If you (i) surrender your Contract at the end of the applicable time period, (ii) annuitize at the end of the applicable period or (iii) do not surrender your Contract, you would pay the following expenses on a $100,000 investment. These examples assume a 5% return each year (this assumption is required by the SEC and is not a prediction of any Subaccount's future performance). These examples should not be considered a representation of past or future expenses, and actual expenses may be greater or lesser than those shown.

The following example is based on fees before waivers and reimbursements and reflects the imposition of the maximum mortality and expense risk charge (1.25%) which may be imposed by TFLIC, and investing in the Portfolio Company with the maximum expenses (0.96%).
