The following tables describe the fees and expenses that you will pay when buying, owning, and surrendering the Contract. For a complete discussion of Contract fees and expenses, see Charges and Deductions.

The first table describes the fees and expenses that you will pay at the time that you buy the Contract, surrender the Contract, or transfer cash value between investment options. You pay no sales load when you make additional investments in the Contract. No state premium taxes are deducted.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 7 The next table shows the minimum and maximum Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses charged by the Portfolios that you pay indirectly during the time you own the Contract. This table shows the range (minimum and maximum) of fees and expenses (including management fees and other expenses) charged by any of the Portfolios, expressed as an annual percentage of average daily net assets. The amounts are based on the arithmetic average of expenses paid in the year ended December 31, 2019, for all of the available Portfolios, adjusted to reflect anticipated changes in fees and expenses. With respect to new Portfolios, amounts are based on estimates for the current fiscal year. The amounts shown reflect expenses before any applicable expense reimbursement or fee waiver.

Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses9

Maximum Minimum (expenses that are deducted from Fund Assets, including management fees 3.90% 0.24% and other expenses)

Each Subaccount of the Variable Account purchases shares of the corresponding Fund Portfolio at net asset value. The net asset value reflects the investment advisory fees and other expenses that are deducted from the assets of the Portfolio. The advisory fees and other expenses are not fixed or specified under the terms of the Contract, and they may vary from year to year. More detail concerning the fees and expenses of the Portfolios is contained in the prospectus for the Fund.

If a Portfolio is structured as a “fund of funds,” the Portfolio will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any fees and expenses (like investment advisory fees and operating expenses) of the investment companies in which it invests. However, Thrivent has contractually agreed, for as long as the current fee structure is in place, to waive an amount equal to any investment advisory fees indirectly incurred by an Asset Allocation Portfolio as a result of its investment in any other mutual fund for which the Adviser or an affiliate serves as investment adviser, other than Thrivent Cash Management Trust. For a list of the “fund of funds” portfolios available through the Contract, see the chart of portfolios available in the prospectus for the Fund.

Examples

The following two 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 Contract Owner transaction expenses, Contract fees, separate account annual expenses, and Portfolio fees and expenses. The following two examples assume that you invest $10,000 in the Contract for the time periods indicated and that your investment has a 5% return each year and assumes both the minimum and the maximum fees and expenses of the Portfolios. Example 1 shows a Contract with a combination of features and portfolio ranges that yield the most expensive total cost. Example 2 shows the cost of a Contract with the most expensive optional feature and the corresponding range of portfolio options. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

The maximum expense charge is 0.75%. The current charge is 0.75%, except for a 10 year allocation period in the RP Moderately Conservative Allocation Subaccount which has a current charge of 0.50%. For a 10 year allocation period in the RP Moderately Conservative Allocation Subaccount made prior to January 9, 2012, the current charge is 0.75%. Return Protection Allocations (RPAs) are no longer available for election as of December 20, 2012. If you currently have an RPA, the guarantees associated with your benefit will continue through the end of your allocation period. 6 The amount shown is based on the guaranteed maximum charge for the GLWB Rider. The current charge is as follows: 1.25%, 1.25%, and 0.75% for the Moderately Aggressive, Moderate and Moderately Conservative Allocations, respectively. 7 The maximum total separate account expenses occur when the GLWB Rider is selected as an optional benefit. 8 If a payee under a settlement option elects to receive a lump sum instead of continuing payments, we will pay the commuted value of the future payments for the remaining guaranteed period. The commuted value is determined by using an interest rate that is 0.25% more than the interest rate used to determine the annuity payments. 9 Thrivent Financial has agreed to reimburse certain expenses other than the advisory fees for certain Portfolios. After taking these contractual and voluntary arrangements into account, the actual range (maximum and minimum) of total operating expenses charged by the Portfolios was between 1.25% to 0.24%.

Variable Investment Options and the Subaccounts We select the Portfolios offered through the Contract based on several factors. We generally select the Portfolios to provide a range of investment options for the Contracts from conservative to more aggressive investment strategies.

You may allocate the premiums paid under the Contract and transfer from the Contract’s Accumulated Value to the Subaccounts of the Variable Account. We invest the assets of each Subaccount in a corresponding Portfolio of the Fund. Note that the italicized Portfolios below are “fund of funds” which are comprised of investments in other Portfolios within the Fund. The Subaccounts and the corresponding Portfolios are listed below. If you chose the Return Protection Allocation, your investment options were limited based on the date the allocation period was selected. See The Contract-Return Protection Allocations

With the Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit Rider, you are limited in your investment options based on the timing of your Contract purchase. For new Riders and those issued on or after July 24, 2014, the only investment option available is the Thrivent Moderately Conservative Allocation Subaccount.

For riders issued on or after January 16, 2014 and on or before July 23, 2014, you had the option to choose between the Thrivent Moderate Allocation Subaccount and the Thrivent Moderately Conservative Allocation Subaccount. Contracts with premiums allocated to the Thrivent Moderate Allocation Subaccount may continue to allocate premiums into that subaccount, as long as you do not transfer the Accumulated Value out of that Subaccount.

For riders issued prior to January 16, 2014, you could allocate to the Thrivent Moderately Aggressive Allocation Subaccount, the Thrivent Moderate Allocation Subaccount and the Thrivent Moderately Conservative Allocation Subaccount. Contracts with premiums allocated to the Thrivent Moderately Aggressive Allocation Subaccount or Thrivent Moderate Allocation Subaccount may continue to allocate premiums into the selected Subaccount as long as you do not transfer the Accumulated Value out of that Subaccount. If you transfer out of that Subaccount, the only option is the Thrivent Moderately Conservative Allocation Subaccount.

The adjustment may increase or decrease the amount surrendered. The adjustment is determined by As an example to illustrate the operation of the MVA multiplying the total amount surrendered times: formula, assume that a net surrender of $20,000 is requested from a seven-year Fixed Period Allocation (n/12) with 60 months remaining in the Fixed Period (1 + i)/(1 + j + .0025) -1 Allocation. Assume also that the seven-year Treasury Rate for the week prior to the date you made an where: allocation to that seven-year Fixed Period Allocation was 9% and the five-year Treasury Rate for the week prior to i is the Treasury Rate for the week prior to the date of the date of surrender or transfer of that seven-year Fixed allocation for a maturity equal to the Fixed Period Allocation Period is 9.25%. Under the formula, “i” is Allocation from which the surrender is made; equal to 9%, “j” is equal to 9.25%, and “n” is equal to 60. To calculate the MVA, we divide the sum of 1.00 and j is the Treasury Rate for the week prior to the date of “i”, 1.09, by the sum of 1.00 and “j” and .0025, or surrender for a maturity equal to the number of whole 1.095.

Gender Neutral Benefits In 1983, the U.S. Supreme Court held in Arizona Governing Committee v. Norris that the application of sex-distinct actuarial tables to employees based upon their gender in calculating the amount of retirement benefits violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1963. Because of this decision, employer-sponsored retirement plans may not use sex-distinct actuarial annuity rates in determining benefits.

Generally, annuity payments described in this Prospectus are determined using sex-distinct actuarial tables based on the Annuitant’s gender. However, annuity payments will be based on a gender neutral basis for the following: Contracts used in an employer sponsored retirement plan; Contracts issued in Massachusetts (beginning January 1, 2009); and

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 77 APPENDIX B—PRIOR CONTRACT ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

We offered a flexible premium deferred variable annuity contract (the “Prior Contract”) (form # W-BB-FPVA) beginning in 2002. The Prior Contract is no longer being issued.

Principal Differences The principal differences between the Contract offered by this Prospectus and the Prior Contract relate to the following charges: Surrender Charges Risk Charges Annual administrative charge

Other Differences Other differences between the Contract offered by this Prospectus and the Prior Contract relate to the following: The minimum amount that must remain after a partial surrender The restriction on transfers from a Fixed Period Allocation The minimum amount required for the initial premium The interest rate credited for amounts allocated to the Fixed Account when the Contract has an optional death benefit The Return Protection Allocation is offered as an amendment instead of an optional provision of the Contract The Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit Rider is not offered with the Prior Contract

Surrender Charges The maximum surrender charge for the Prior Contract is 6% and it applies for six years as follows:

Contract Year 123456 Percent Applied 6% 5% 4% 3% 2% 1%

Risk Charges The current risk charges for the Prior Contract are lower than the Risk Charges for the Contract offered by this Prospectus. The Fee and Expense Tables set forth below list the current and maximum risk charges for the Prior Contract. We may change the current risk charges for the Prior Contract in the future, but we guarantee that they will never exceed the maximum annual rates shown in the Fee and Expense Tables set forth below. On or after the Annuity Date, the risk charges for Annuity Unit Values are 1.25%.

Annual Administrative Charge The Prior Contract has no annual administrative charge.

Other Differences Under the Contract covered by this Prospectus, a partial surrender may not reduce the remaining Accumulated Value in the Contract to less than $1,000. Under the Prior Contract, a partial surrender may not reduce the remaining Accumulated Value in the Contract to less than $600.

78 •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• APPENDIX B—PRIOR CONTRACT ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

The Contract covered by this Prospectus does not allow transfers from a Fixed Period Allocation. The Prior Contract allows such transfers, which are subject to the Market Value Adjustment.

Under the Contract covered by this Prospectus, the initial premium must be at least $5,000 for a Contract that is not issued in connection with a Qualified Plan and $2,000 for a Contract that is issued in connection with a Qualified Plan. Under the Prior Contract, the initial premium must be at least $600 on an annual basis.

Under the Contract covered by this Prospectus, the interest rate credited for a Contract with an optional death benefit will be 0.25% lower than the interest amount credited for a contract without any optional death benefits. Under the Prior Contract, the interest rate for amounts credited to the Fixed Account will not be reduced if the contract has an optional death benefit.

FEE AND EXPENSE TABLES FOR PRIOR CONTRACT

The following tables describe the fees and expenses that you will pay when owning, making additional payments to, and surrendering the Prior Contract.

The first table describes the fees and expenses that you will pay at the time that you buy the Prior Contract, surrender the Prior Contract, or transfer cash value between investment options. You pay no sales charge when you make additional investments in the Prior Contract. No state premium taxes are deducted.

Contract Owner Transaction Expense

Sales Load Imposed on Purchase (as a percentage of purchase payments) 0% Maximum Deferred Sales Load (as a percentage of excess amount surrendered) 6.00%1 Transfer Charge (after 12 free transfers) $252

If a Portfolio is structured as a “fund of funds,” total gross annual Portfolio expenses also include the fees associated with the Portfolios in which it invests. Because of this a Portfolio that is structured as a “fund of funds” may have higher fees and expenses than a Portfolio that invests directly in debt and equity securities. For a list of the “fund of funds” Portfolios available through the Contract, see the chart of portfolios available in the prospectus for the Fund.

Examples The following examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Prior Contract with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts. These costs include Contract Owner transaction expenses, Contract fees, separate account annual expenses, and Portfolio fees and expenses. The following two examples assume that you invest $10,000 in the Prior Contract for the time periods indicated and that your investment has a 5% return each year and assumes both the minimum and the maximum fees and expenses of the Portfolios. Example 1 shows a Contract with a combination of features and portfolio ranges that yield the most expensive total cost. Example 2 shows the cost of a Contract with the most expensive optional feature. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

For more information, See Charges and Deductions in this prospectus and the prospectus for the Fund.

Notes to Fee and Expense Tables: 1 In each Contract Year, you may surrender without a surrender charge up to 10% of the Accumulated Value existing at the time the first surrender is made in a Contract Year; only the amount in excess of that amount (the “Excess Amount”) will be subject to a surrender charge. A surrender charge is deducted if a full or partial surrender occurs during the first six Contract Years. The surrender charge is 6% during the first Contract Year and decreases by 1% each subsequent Contract Year. No surrender charge is deducted for surrenders occurring in Contract Years 7 and later. The surrender charge also will be deducted if the annuity payments begin during the first three Contract Years, except under certain circumstances as described in Surrender Charge (Contingent Deferred Sales Charge). 2 You are allowed 12 free transfers per Contract Year. Subsequent transfers (other than the Dollar Cost Averaging and Asset Rebalancing Programs) will incur a $25 transfer charge. 3 The table shows the current and maximum risk charges for the Prior Contract. On or after the Annuity Date, the risk charge will be 1.25%. See Charges and Deductions—Risk Charge. The risk charge for a Prior Contract pending payout due to a death claim is based on the average daily net assets of the Variable Account and is equal to an annual rate of 0.95%. 4 The current charge is 0.50% for a 10 year allocation period in the RP Moderately Conservative Allocation Subaccount. For a 10 year allocation period in the RP Moderately Conservative Allocation Subaccount made prior to January 9, 2012, the current charge is 0.75%. 5 The current charge is 0.50% for a 10 year allocation period in the RP Moderately Conservative Allocation Subaccount. For a 10 year allocation period in the RP Moderately Conservative Allocation Subaccount made prior to January 9, 2012, the current charge is 0.75%. 6 The maximum total separate account expenses occur when both the MADB and RPA are selected as optional benefits. 7 If a payee under a settlement option elects to receive a lump sum instead of continuing payments, we will pay the commuted value of the future payments for the remaining guaranteed period. The commuted value is determined by using an interest rate that is 0.25% more than the interest rate used to determine the annuity payments. 8 Thrivent Financial has agreed to reimburse certain expenses other than the advisory fees for certain of the Portfolios. After taking these contractual and voluntary arrangements into account, the actual range (maximum and minimum) of total operating expenses charged by the Portfolios was between 1.25% to 0.24%. The reimbursements may be discontinued at any time. The amounts are based on the arithmetic average of expenses paid in the year ended December 31, 2019, for all of the available Portfolios, adjusted to reflect anticipated changes in fees and expenses. With respect to new Portfolios, amounts are based on estimates for the current fiscal year 9 For this example, the following assumptions are used: 0.45% optional benefit charge, 1.25% mortality and expense risk charge, and portfolio operating expenses ranging from 3.90% to 0.24%. 10 For this example, the following assumptions are used: 0.85% optional benefit charge, 1.25% mortality and expense risk charge, and portfolio operating expenses ranging from 0.91% to 0.73%.

The RPA Benefit. The Return Protection Allocation (RPA) was an optional living benefit available in your contract for an additional charge. The maximum charge is 0.75%. This is in addition to the Mortality and Expense Risk charge. The current charge is 0.75%, except for a 10 year allocation period in the RP Moderately Conservative Allocation Subaccount which has a current charge of 0.50%. For a 10 year allocation period in the RP Moderately Conservative Allocation Subaccount made prior to January 9, 2012, the current charge is 0.75%. This benefit guarantees that your contract will have a certain minimum amount of Accumulated Value at the end of either a seven-year or ten-year period (allocation period), regardless of market performance. At the end of the allocation period, if the Accumulated Value is less than the guaranteed benefit amount, then we will adjust your Contract so that the value is equal to the guaranteed benefit amount. This benefit is adjusted for withdrawals and administrative charges. If the accumulated value is greater than the guaranteed benefit amount, then no adjustment will be made to the Contract. Neither Dollar Cost Averaging nor Asset Rebalancing is available on amounts with the RPA benefit. No premiums may be made to the RPA benefit before the allocation period is due to expire.

Effect of Partial Surrender and Administrative Charges. Any partial surrender or administrative charge taken from the RPA during the allocation period will reduce the Accumulated Value and correspondingly the benefit as follows: As of the day that a partial surrender is taken, the accumulated allocation amount is decreased by the same proportion as the accumulated value of the RPA was decreased by that partial surrender. On any

Contract Anniversary that we deduct an annual administrative charge, the accumulated allocation amount is decreased by the same proportion as the accumulated value of the RPA was decreased by the deduction for the annual administrative charge.

Expiration and Renewal. We will give you at least 45 days’ notice of the expiration date of each RPA and the options available at that time. Renewal of RPA options is currently unavailable.

If RPA options become available at a later date, unless we receive Written Notice before the expiration date to do otherwise, the accumulated value of the expired RPA will be applied to a new RPA on the expiration date. The new RPA will be applied to the same Subaccount and for the same period as the expired RPA (even if the guarantee has changed since the original RPA), subject to the following requirements. The new RPA must be at least $10,000 and the allocation period must not extend beyond the Annuity Date. If the amount of the RPA is less than $10,000 or if the allocation period would extend beyond the Annuity Date, the amount of that RPA will be transferred to the corresponding Subaccount available without the return protection benefit that invests in the same Portfolio as the RP subaccount.

If the same Subaccount and allocation period combination is no longer available for new allocations, the amount of that RPA will be transferred to the corresponding Subaccount available without the return protection benefit that invests in the same Portfolio as the RP subaccount. If that Subaccount is no longer available for new allocations, the accumulated value of the expired RPA will be allocated to the Thrivent Money Market Subaccount.

Additional premiums or Accumulated Value may be allocated or transferred to the new RPA, if available at that time, on its allocation date by giving Written Notice prior to that date. Additional premiums received prior to the allocation date will be allocated to the Thrivent Money Market Subaccount and transferred to the new RPA on its allocation date.

Termination. An RPA automatically terminates on the earlier of its expiration date or the date that death benefits are calculated. You may only terminate an RPA prior to its expiration date if you give us Written Notice or notice by telephone. An RPA will terminate on the date the death benefit is calculated at which time the RPA’s accumulated value will be transferred to the corresponding asset allocation Subaccount available without the return protection benefit that invests in the same Portfolio as the RP subaccount. An RPA may be terminated during its first two years, but only by requesting a surrender of the entire accumulated value of the RPA; and surrender charges may apply. An RPA may be terminated more than two years after the date of its allocation by requesting a surrender of the accumulated value of the RPA, for which a surrender charge may apply; or requesting that the RPA’s accumulated value be transferred to another investment option.

Other Restrictions. During the first two years of the RPA allocation period, transfers from the RP subaccount are not permitted. No additional premiums may be made to the RPA once an allocation is in force. However, you may add premium at the expiration date. At least twelve months must pass before an RPA benefit (with the same allocation period) can be re-added, if available at that time, after being discontinued by the owner. An RPA benefit will automatically terminate if the Contract Owner chooses to annuitize the Contract (elects a settlement option).
