Distribution of Contracts
1.In response to Comment 29 provided by the staff on February 23, 2026, you provided a supplemental explanation on
the distinction between Independent Registered Investment Advisors and Registered Investment Advisors. Please
include this explanation in the Distribution of Contracts section prospectus where reference is made to Independent
Registered Investment Advisors.
Response: We have incorporated this explanation into the Distribution of Contracts section as follows:
"When a contract is offered to persons who are also customers of an Independent
Registered Investment Advisor, JNLD may act in its capacity as a Selling Firm and be
responsible for delivering disclosure documents and making recommendations that are in
the best interest of the customer. Independent Registered Investment Advisors are
Registered Investment Advisers that are not affiliated with a Broker-Dealer, and who
require additional support in the recommendation and sale of contracts. Neither JNLD nor
the Independent Registered Investment Advisors receive commission when one of their
customers purchases a contract from JNLD. JNLD will not make marketing support
payments to Independent Registered Investment Advisors if the payment or non-cash
compensation is preconditioned on achievement of a sales target or on achievement of
maintaining a level of premium with Jackson." (Emphasis added for the purpose of
highlighting the new disclosure.)
Please contact me at (517) 367-3754 if you have any questions or require additional information.
