II. NEW OPTIONAL BENEFITS<br />

This supplement describes new lifetime withdrawal benefits called Highest Daily Lifetime ® Income v2.1 Benefit, Spousal Highest<br />

Daily Lifetime ® Income v2.1 Benefit, Highest Daily Lifetime ® Income v2.1 with Highest Daily Death Benefit, and Spousal<br />

Highest Daily Lifetime ® Income v2.1 with Highest Daily Death Benefit (the “Highest Daily Lifetime Income v2.1 suite of<br />

benefits” or “HDI v2.1”). Beginning on or about February 25, 2013, the Highest Daily Lifetime Income v2.1 suite of benefits is<br />

available in states where we have received regulatory approval. Once the Highest Daily Lifetime Income v2.1 suite of benefits has<br />

been approved in your state we will close the Highest Daily Lifetime Income 2.0 suite of benefits and they will no longer be<br />

available for purchase in your state.<br />

The Highest Daily Lifetime Income v2.1 suite of benefits is available for purchase (subject to our rules and your eligibility, as<br />

described below):<br />

▪ if you currently own an annuity without a living benefit and wish to purchase one of the Highest Daily Lifetime Income v2.1<br />

suite of benefits; or<br />

▪ if you currently own an annuity with a living benefit, and you wish to terminate your existing benefit and elect one of the<br />

Highest Daily Lifetime Income v2.1 benefits.<br />

If you currently own an annuity with a living benefit, it is important to note that the benefit you elect may not provide the<br />

same guarantees and/or may be more expensive than the benefit you are terminating. Once you terminate an existing<br />

benefit, you lose the guarantees that you have accumulated under your existing benefit. You should carefully consider<br />

whether terminating your existing benefit and electing one of the benefits described in this Supplement is appropriate for<br />

you. Please speak to your Financial Professional for further details. The guarantees provided by the variable annuity<br />

contracts and the optional benefits are the obligations of and subject to the claims paying ability of Pruco Life.<br />

The new guarantees under the new benefit you elect will begin based on your Unadjusted Account Value as of the date the new<br />

benefit becomes effective under your annuity. Also, you may be required to reallocate your Account Value to certain permitted<br />

investment options.<br />

Your existing benefit is described in your current prospectus. If you need another copy of your prospectus, please contact us at<br />

1-888-PRU-2888 or you can visit our website at http://www.prudentialannuities.com.<br />

Accordingly, we revise your annuity prospectus as follows.<br />

A. Benefit Fees. We add the charges for the new Highest Daily Lifetime Income v2.1 suite of benefits to the table in the “Your<br />

Optional Benefit Fees and Charges” section and modify the footnotes thereto, as follows:<br />
