The Investment Divisions are grouped by risk classifications that reflect performance volatility based on Morningstar classifications as of December 31, 2020. Morningstar is a widely used independent research firm, which ranks mutual funds and other investment companies by overall performance, investment objectives and assets. While there is no standard definition, generally “alternative” funds include nontraditional asset classes or strategies and/or illiquid assets. Alternative investments are speculative, can carry substantial risk, and may not be appropriate for all inves tors. For those investors who are able to bear greater risk in return for the opportunity they provide, alternative investments may be appropriate. 4 Certain Portfolios existed prior to the date that they were added as Investment Divisions of the Separate Account. The performance for the MainStay VP Funds Trust Service Class portfolios is based on the Initial Class Portfolio (where applicable). The performance for all other Investment Divisions is based on the Portfolio Inception Date reflected in the performance summary. The hypothetical performance of the Investment Divisions was derived from the performance of the corresponding Portfolio, modified to reflect Separate Account and Fund annual expenses as if the policy had been available during the periods shown. 5 The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index and is widely regarded as the standard for measuring Large-Cap U.S. stock market performance.

Page 2 of 5 Performance data quoted is past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Due to market volatility, current performance may be lower or higher than the figures shown. The investment return and the accumulation value of your policy will fluctuate so that a policy, when surrendered, may be worth more or less than the original cost. For current to the most recent month-end performance information, please call 1-800-598- 2019 or visit www.newyorklife.com. All performance reflects the percentage change for the period shown with capital gains and dividends reinvested, and includes an annualized Mortality and Expense Risk and Administrative Costs Charge of 1.40% and Fund Company Expenses. An Annual Policy Service Charge, equal to the lesser of $30 or 2% of the Accumulation Value of the policy is not included in these charges, bu t will be deducted each year from the policy's Accumulation Value on the policy anniversary and upon surrender if on that date t he Accumulation Value Is less than $20,000. The performance shown, therefore, would be slightly lower if your policy's Accumulat ion Value is less than $20,000. Charges for any optional riders, if reflected, would reduce the performance shown. Non-Standardized Performance ("Assuming No Surrender") does not reflect the deduction of Surrender Charges Standardized Performance ("Assuming Surrender") reflects the maximum Surrender Charge under the policy. The maximum Surrende r Charge for each premium payment is 7%, declining to 4% by the 6th year after that premium payment has been in the policy, with no surrender charge thereafter. Withdrawals and surrenders may be taxable transactions, and prior to 59½, may be subject to a 10% IRS penalty (the penalty ta x is increased to 25% in the case of a distribution from a SIMPLE IRA within the first two years of your participation in the SIMPLE IRA plan). The Investment Divisions offered through the New York Life Variable Annuity and described herein are different from m utual funds that may have similar names but are available directly to the public. Investment results may differ.

Page 4 of 5 Performance data quoted is past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Due to market volatility, current performance may be lower or higher than the figures shown. The investment return and the accumulation value of your policy will fluctuate so that a policy, when surrendered, may be worth more or less than the origi nal cost. For current to the most recent month-end performance information, please call 1-800-598- 2019 or visit www.newyorklife.com. All performance reflects the percentage change for the period shown with capital gains and dividends reinvested, and includes an annualized Mortality and Expense Risk and Administrative Costs Charge of 1.40% and Fund Company Expenses. An Annual Policy Service Charge, equal to the lesser of $30 or 2% of the Accumulation Value of the policy is not included in these charges, bu t will be deducted each year from the policy's Accumulation Value on the policy anniversary and upon surrender if on that date t he Accumulation Value Is less than $20,000. The performance shown, therefore, would be slightly lower if your policy's Accumulat ion Value is less than $20,000. Charges for any optional riders, if reflected, would reduce the performance shown. Non-Standardized Performance ("Assuming No Surrender") does not reflect the deduction of Surrender Charges Standardized Performance ("Assuming Surrender") reflects the maximum Surrender Charge under the policy. The maximum Surrende r Charge for each premium payment is 7%, declining to 4% by the 6th year after that premium payment has been in the policy, with no surrender charge thereafter. Withdrawals and surrenders may be taxable transactions, and prior to 59½, may be subject to a 10% IRS penalty (the penalty ta x is increased to 25% in the case of a distribution from a SIMPLE IRA within the first two years of your participation in the SIMPLE IRA plan). The Investment Divisions offered through the New York Life Variable Annuity and described herein are different from m utual funds that may have similar names but are available directly to the public. Investment results may differ.
