Investment Management New General Account Fixed Interest Option • Current rate: 3.6%* • Guaranteed minimum for 2010: 3.00% • Life of contract: 2.00% • Portfolio-based method of determining interest rate • Daily interest-rate crediting • A VALIC fixed annuity (policy no. GFA-504) *VALIC declares a portfolio interest rate monthly for the Fixed-Interest Option. That declared portfolio interest rate is guaranteed until the end of the month and is credited to all new and old deposits as well as credited interest. The contractual lifetime minimum guaranteed interest rate is 2.00%; however, VALIC guarantees – for calendar year 2009 – a minimum portfolio interest rate of 3.25%. All interest is compounded daily at the declared annual effective rate. VALIC’s interest-crediting policy is subject to change, but any changes will not reduce the current rate below the contractually guaranteed minimum or money already credited to the account. Guarantees are subject to the claims-paying ability of the insurance company. 6
