Interests in the market value adjustment account are sold on a dollar basis, not on the basis of a price per share or unit.
This filing is being made under the Securities Act of 1933 to register $5,544,681,296 of interests in market value adjusted annuity contracts. The interests being registered herein are carried over, as unsold securities, from an existing Form S-3 registration statement of the same issuer (333-198398) filed on August 27, 2014. Because a filing fee of $714,155 previously was paid with respect to those securities, there is no filing fee under this registration statement. In accordance with Rule 415 (a)(6), the offering of securities on the earlier registration statement will be deemed terminated as of the effective date of this registration statement.
This Registration Statement contains a combined prospectus under Rule 429 under the Securities Act of 1933 which relates to the Form S-3 registration statement (File No. 333-198398), initially filed August 27, 2014, by Pruco Life Insurance Company. Upon effectiveness, this Registration Statement, which is a new Registration Statement, will also act as a post-effective amendment to such earlier Registration Statement.
Audited financial statements for variable annuity separate accounts registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 are not included in this Form S-3 registration statement. Pruco Life Insurance Company incorporates by reference its annual report for the year ending 12/31/16 on Form 10-K filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of Exchange Act and all documents subsequently filed by Pruco Life Insurance Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
Risk Factors are discussed in the sections of the prospectus included in Part 1 of this Form concerning the Market Value Adjustment option.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of each prospectus included in this registration statement. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
The principal underwriter for these securities, Prudential Annuities Distributors, Inc. is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of securities, but will use its best efforts to sell the securities offered. The offering under this registration statement will conclude three years from the effective date of this registration statement, unless terminated earlier by the Registrant. See each prospectus included in Part 1 hereof for the date of the prospectus.
The registrant hereby amends this registration statement on such date or dates as may be necessary to delay its effective date until the registrant shall file a further amendment which specifically states that this registration statement shall thereafter become effective in accordance with Section 8(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 or until the registration statement shall become effective on such date as the Commission may determine.



 




PART II
ITEM 14. OTHER EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION
REGISTRATION FEES

There is no filing fee due under this registration statement, because the units registered herein are carried over from a predecessor registration statement.
FEDERAL TAXES
The company estimates the federal tax effect associated with the deferred acquisition costs attributable to each $1,000,000 of annual purchase payments to be approximately $2,500.
STATE TAXES
Currently, some states charge up to 3.5% of premium taxes or similar taxes on annuities. The company estimates that premium taxes in the amount of $35,000 would be owed if 3.5% premium tax was owed on $1,000,000, of purchase payments.
PRINTING COSTS
Pruco Life Insurance Company estimated that the printing cost will be subsumed in the printing costs for the companion variable annuities.
LEGAL COSTS
This registration statement was prepared by Prudential attorneys whose time is allocated to Pruco Life Insurance Company.
ACCOUNTING COSTS
The independent registered public accounting firm that audits the company’s financial statements charges approximately $10,000 in connection with each set of S-3 registration statements filed by the company with the Commission on a given date. The fee is allocated among the filings.
ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Registrant, in conjunction with certain of its affiliates, maintains insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a trustee, director, officer, employee, or agent of the Registrant, or who is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a trustee, director, officer, employee or agent of such other affiliated trust or corporation, against any liability asserted against and incurred by him or her arising out of his or her position with such trust or corporation.
Arizona, being the state of organization of Pruco Life Insurance Company (“Pruco”), permits entities organized under its jurisdiction to indemnify directors and officers with certain limitations. The relevant provisions of Arizona law permitting indemnification can be found in Section 10-850 et seq. of the Arizona Statutes Annotated. The text of Pruco’s By-law, Article VIII, which relates to indemnification of officers and directors, is incorporated by reference to Exhibit 3(ii) to Form 10-Q filed on August 15, 1997 on behalf of Pruco Life Insurance Company.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling



precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment to this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(2) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(3) That each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:
The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to
Rule 424;
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
(5) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(6) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The Guarantee Period for an MVA Option begins: (a) when all or part of a Purchase Payment is allocated to that particular MVA Option; or (b) upon transfer of any of your Account Value to that particular MVA Option.
We may offer multiple Guarantee Period durations. To the extent permitted by law, we may at any time offer Guarantee Period durations that differ from those available when your Annuity was issued. Upon maturity of an MVA Option, we may stop, limit, or restrict the availability of certain Guarantee Period durations that we make available. We may discontinue making MVA Options available for transfers of Account Value or allocation of new Purchase Payments. If we do so, we will notify you. We may limit availability of certain Guarantee Period durations if, by electing an MVA Option with such a Guarantee Period duration, its Maturity Date would occur after the Annuity Date. We may offer multiple Guarantee Periods of equal duration, but with different Crediting Rates. We may limit access to certain Guarantee Period durations, depending on the use of the Annuity.
CREDITING RATES: We credit interest to amounts allocated to an MVA Option at the daily equivalent of the Crediting Rate in effect for that Guarantee Period duration when the allocation is made. We declare the Crediting Rates applicable to the various Guarantee Period durations we offer. Crediting Rates are expressed in terms of effective annualized rates of interest. The Crediting Rate is guaranteed throughout the Guarantee Period of each MVA Option. We will inform you of the Crediting Rate for an MVA Option, as well as its Maturity Date, when we confirm your allocation.
The Crediting Rates will never be less than the Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement.
ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE AND PREMIUM BASED CHARGE: If any portion of your Account Value is allocated to an MVA Option at the time an Annual Maintenance Fee or Premium Based Charge would be deducted from your Annuity, the Annual Maintenance Fee and/or the Premium Based Charge will be deducted from the MVA Options only in the event the Account Value in the Sub-accounts is not enough to satisfy the Annual Maintenance Fee and/or Premium Based Charge. If this happens: (1) the Annual Maintenance Fee shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement will be substituted for the Annual Maintenance Fee shown in the Annuity Schedule; (2) we will deduct only that portion of the Premium Based Charge that does not reduce the Unadjusted Account Value below the Premium Based Charge Waiver Amount shown in the Annuity Schedule;
P-RID-MVA(5/11) 2




and (3) the Annual Maintenance Fee and/or Premium Based Charge will be deducted from the MVA Options in the same order as described in the "Allocation Rules for MVA Options" section for the order of withdrawals from multiple MVA Options.
II. ACCOUNT VALUE OF MVA OPTIONS
The Account Value of each MVA Option is the amount allocated to the MVA Option at the start of its Guarantee Period, plus the interest credited during its Guarantee Period, less any withdrawals, transfers, and any charges assessed, multiplied by the MVA factor, if applicable. We value each MVA Option separately.
We use a formula to determine any applicable MVA factor and any MVA applicable to surrenders, withdrawals or transfers from MVA Options ("the MVA Formula") The formula is applied separately to each MVA Option. The MVA formula is set forth in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement.
We do not apply an MVA:
. in determining the Account Value of a MVA Option on its Maturity Date or within the immediately preceding thirty days;
. to amounts distributed as Required Minimum Distributions which we have calculated and provided through a program of systematic withdrawals we make available;
. when Account Value is transferred from the MVA Option by us pursuant to a transfer calculation formula under any optional benefits made a part of your Annuity;
. when we deduct from the Account Value for any applicable Annual Maintenance Fees, Premium Based Charges, or charges for optional benefits;
. on the Annuity Date; or
. when a Death Benefit is determined.
We reserve the right to waive the Liquidity Factor shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement under certain circumstances including, but not limited to, the amount to be refunded if you exercise the Right to Cancel.
III. ALLOCATION RULES FOR MVA OPTIONS
WITHDRAWALS: Unless we receive other instructions from you prior to a withdrawal, withdrawals are taken pro-rata from the Investment Options, including any MVA Options to which you have allocated Account Value, based on the then current Account Values in such Investment Options. For purposes of calculating the applicable portion to deduct from MVA Options, the Account Value in all your MVA Options is deemed to be in one Investment Option.
If Account Value is to be withdrawn from multiple MVA Options and you do not provide instructions indicating the MVA Options from which Account Value should be taken, then: (a) we take Account Value first from the MVA Option with the shortest amount of time remaining to the end of its Guarantee Period, and then from the MVA Option with the next shortest amount of time remaining to the end of its Guarantee Period, etc.; and (b) if there are multiple MVA Options with the same amount of time left in each Guarantee Period, then among such MVA Options we first take Account Value from the MVA Option that has the shortest Guarantee Period duration. If multiple MVA Options with equal Guarantee Period durations have the same amount of time left to the end of such Guarantee Periods, we withdraw amounts proportionately from those MVA Options based on the then current Account Value.
While withdrawals from an MVA Option on its Maturity Date, or within the preceding 30 days, are not subject to an MVA, such withdrawals may be subject to any applicable charges or fees, as shown in the Annuity Schedule.
P-RID-MVA(5/11) 3




Should you request a transaction that would reduce the Account Value remaining in an MVA Option below the Minimum Investment Option Amount shown in the Annuity Schedule, we reserve the right to add the balance of your Account Value in the applicable MVA Option to the transaction and reduce your balance in that MVA Option to zero, subject to any applicable MVA.
TRANSFERS: Transfers of Account Value from an MVA Option on its Maturity Date, or within the immediately preceding thirty days, are not subject to a Transfer Fee and are not counted in determining whether other transfers may be subject to a Transfer Fee. We reserve the right to require two business days' notice prior to any transfer from an MVA Option if the amount to be transferred exceeds the MVA Transfer Limit shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement. Transfers from the MVA Options, including those made by us pursuant to a transfer calculation formula under any optional benefits made a part of your Annuity, follow the same order as described in the second paragraph of the above "Withdrawals" section.
IV. MATURITY OF AN MVA OPTION
An MVA Option ends on the earliest of: the Maturity Date of the Guarantee Period, the date the entire amount in the MVA Option is withdrawn or transferred, the Annuity Date, the date the Annuity is surrendered, and the date as of which a Death Benefit is determined unless the Annuity is continued by a Spouse Beneficiary.
We will notify you before an MVA Option matures. You may elect to have the value of the MVA Option on its Maturity Date transferred to any Investment Option, including any MVA Option, we then make available.
If we do not receive instructions from you in Good Order at our Service Office before the Maturity Date of the MVA Option, regarding how the Account Value in your maturing MVA Option is to be allocated, we will allocate the Account Value in the maturing MVA Option to a money market Investment Option, unless the Maturity Date is the Annuity Date.
V. MVA SEPARATE ACCOUNT
Assets supporting our obligations based on Account Value invested in the MVA Options are held in the MVA Separate Account shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement. The MVA Separate Account is a "non-unitized" separate account established under the laws of the State of Arizona. Such obligations are based on the interest rates we credit to MVA Options and the terms of the annuities. These obligations do not depend on the investment performance of the assets in the MVA Separate Account. There are no discrete units in the MVA Separate Account. No party with rights under any annuity participates in the investment gain or loss from assets in the MVA Separate Account. Such gain or loss accrues solely to us.
We retain the risk that the value of the assets in the MVA Separate Account may drop below the reserves and other liabilities we must maintain. Should the value of the assets in the MVA Separate Account drop below the reserves and other liabilities we must maintain in relation to the annuities supported by such assets, we will transfer assets from our General Account to the MVA Separate Account to make up the difference. We have the right to transfer to our General Account any assets of the MVA Separate Account in excess of such reserves and other liabilities. We maintain assets in the MVA Separate Account supporting a number of annuities we offer. These assets may only be charged with liabilities that arise from such annuities and not with liabilities arising from any other business we may conduct.
P-RID-MVA(5/11) 4




VI. DEATH BENEFIT
The calculation of the Basic Death Benefit described in your Annuity, exclusive of any Death Benefit rider made a part of your Annuity, will be equal to your Unadjusted Account Value on the date we receive Due Proof of Death. The impact of any MVA on any other Death Benefit is described in the Death Benefit Rider(s) made a part of your Annuity.
VII. MODIFICATION OF GENERAL PROVISIONS
The "General Provisions" section of the Annuity is modified as follows
(1) The "Deferral of Transactions" sub-section of the General Provisions is modified such that, if we defer a distribution or transfer from an MVA Option for more than thirty days, we will pay interest as required by state law.
(2) The "Reserved Rights" sub-section of the General Provisions is expanded to include the right to combine the MVA Separate Account shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement with other "non-unitized" separate accounts.
VIII. TERMINATION OF THIS RIDER
TERMINATION DUE TO DEATH: This Rider terminates automatically as of the date the Annuity's Death Benefit is determined, unless the Annuity is continued by a Spouse Beneficiary.
TERMINATION ON THE ANNUITY DATE: This Rider terminates automatically as of the Annuity Date.
TERMINATION UPON SURRENDER: This Rider terminates upon surrender of the Annuity to which it is made a part.

ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE: [Lesser of $50 or 2% of Unadjusted Account Value, but only if the sum of the Purchase Payments in the Annuity at the time the fee is due is less than $100,000]
MVA SEPARATE ACCOUNT: [Pruco Life Modified Guaranteed Annuity Account]
GUARANTEED MINIMUM INTEREST RATE: [3.0%]
LIQUIDITY FACTOR: [0.0025]
MVA TRANSFER LIMIT: [$500,000]
MVA FORMULA: [The MVA factor is equal to:
[1 + i] n/12
[1 + j + k]
where: i = the Crediting Rate for the MVA Option;
j = the rate for the remaining Guarantee Period, determined as described below;
k = the Liquidity Factor shown in this Schedule Supplement; and
n = the number of months remaining in the Guarantee Period duration, rounded up to the nearest whole month.
For the purposes of determining "j",
Y = n / 12.
GP1 = the smallest whole number of years greater than or equal to Y.
r1 = the rate for Guarantee Periods of duration GP1, which will equal the Crediting Rate if such Guarantee Period duration is currently available.
GP2 = the greatest whole number of years less than or equal to Y, but not less than 1.
r2 = the rate for Guarantee Periods of duration GP2, which will equal the Crediting Rate if such Guarantee Period duration is currently available.
If we do not currently offer a Guarantee Period of duration GP1 or duration GP2, we will determine r1 and/or r2 by linearly interpolating between the current rates of Guarantee Periods closest in duration. If we cannot interpolate because a Guarantee Period of lesser duration is not available, then r1 and/or r2 will equal to [(1) + (2) - (3)], where (1), (2) and (3) are defined as:

(1) = the current Treasury spot rate for GP1 or GP2, respectively, and
(2) = the current Crediting Rate for the next longer Guarantee Period duration currently available, and
(3) = the current Treasury spot rate for the next longer Guarantee Period duration currently available.
The term "current Treasury spot rate" refers to the rates that existed at the time the Crediting Rates were last determined.
To determine "j":
If Y is an integer, and if Y is equal to a Guarantee Period duration that we currently offer," j" is equal to the Crediting Rate associated with a Guarantee Period duration of Y years.
If Y is less than 1, then "j" = r2.
Otherwise, we determine "j" by linearly interpolating between r1 and r2, using the following formula:
j = (r1 * (Y - GP2) + r2 * (GP1 - Y)) / (GP1 - GP2)
The current rate ("j") in the MVA formula is subject to the Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate shown above.]

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING ("DCA") PROGRAM RIDER
This Dollar Cost Averaging Program Rider ("DCA Program is madeRider") is made part of your Annuity. For purposes of this Rider, certain provisions of your Annuity are amended as described below. Should this Rider terminate, any amended or replaced Annuity provisions based on this Rider's terms will revert to the provisions in the Annuity, except as may be provided below.
This Rider should be read in conjunction with the Market Value Adjustment ("MVA") Option Rider, any applicable Death Benefit Rider(s), and any Riders providing for optional benefits which are made a part of your Annuity. If there is a conflict between the provisions of this DCA Program Rider and the terms of the Annuity or the MVA Option Rider, the provisions of this DCA Program Rider shall control.
This DCA Program Rider provides for Dollar Cost Averaging MVA Options ("DCA MVA Options") designed to transfer Account Value from a Market Value Adjustment Option ("MVA Option") to other Investment Options that you have specified which we offer, on a monthly basis. It also provides for a modification, as described below, of the Guarantee Period durations and Market Value Adjustment Formula for MVA Options with respect to the DCA MVA Options.
This program of DCA MVA Options is separate from any other dollar cost averaging program we may make available. The DCA MVA Options may be utilized only as permitted by us in accordance with our rules at the time of election, and may not be available in conjunction with other programs and benefits we may make available. We may modify the terms of the DCA MVA Options, or discontinue making the DCA MVA Options available for allocation of new Purchase Payments. If we do so, we will notify you. You may elect to participate in the DCA MVA Options by submitting a request to us in Good Order.
Capitalized terms in this DCA Program Rider are defined in this Rider, your Annuity, or any MVA Option Rider made a part of your Annuity.
DCA MVA OPTIONS TERMS AND CONDITIONS:
(a) DCA MVA Options may only be selected in conjunction with, and simultaneous to, new Purchase Payment allocations. The minimum Purchase Payment allocation to a DCA MVA Option is shown in the DCA Program Schedule Supplement. You may not transfer Account Value into a DCA MVA Option. Multiple DCA MVA Options are permitted, subject to our allocation rules.
(b) You may only allocate Purchase Payments to the DCA MVA Option Guarantee Period durations we make available.
(c) We may limit the Investment Options into which Account Value may be transferred from a DCA MVA Option.
(d) Crediting Rates will be declared by us on or before the date allocations are made into a DCA MVA Option. The Crediting Rates for each DCA MVA Option we make available will never be less than the Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement, made a part of your Annuity.
P-RID-DCA(5/11) 1




(e) We credit interest daily to the amounts in each DCA MVA Option we make available at the daily equivalent of a specific annualized rate declared for that DCA MVA Option until the earliest of: 1) the date the entire amount in the DCA MVA Option is transferred from the DCA MVA Option, 2) the date the entire amount in the DCA MVA Option is withdrawn, 3) the date as of which any Death Benefit is determined, unless the Annuity is continued by a Spouse Beneficiary, and 4) the Annuity Date.
(f) Monthly transfers will be made during the Guarantee Period of the DCA MVA Option. Please refer to the "Transfers from DCA MVA Options" section below.
MVA OPTION GUARANTEE PERIOD DURATIONS FOR DCA MVA OPTIONS: We may offer certain MVA Option Guarantee Period durations only for use with the DCA MVA Options. These Guarantee Period durations are not available for existing Account Value.
MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT FORMULA APPLICABLE TO DCA MVA OPTIONS: The MVA Formula stated in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement is replaced with the Dollar Cost Averaging MVA Formula shown in the DCA Program Schedule Supplement. The Dollar Cost Averaging MVA Formula is used for purposes of determining the MVA, if any, applicable to DCA MVA Options to which assets are allocated. The formula is applied separately to each DCA MVA Option.
We do not apply an MVA to transfers made from DCA MVA Options or Optional Benefit Transfers (defined below). However, withdrawals or transfers from a DCA MVA Option made outside the DCA Program are subject to an MVA, assuming that no waiver of the MVA otherwise applies. If you cancel participation in the DCA Program, re-allocations of your Account Value due to cancellation are subject to an MVA. If you surrender the Annuity while participating in DCA MVA Options, the Surrender Value reflects any applicable MVA.
TRANSFERS FROM DCA MVA OPTIONS: Purchase Payments allocated to DCA MVA Options are transferred monthly and systematically, based on a duration we make available, to the Investment Options you specify. We will transfer amounts in a series of substantially equal amounts on each monthly transfer date. The first transfer from the DCA MVA Option is made as of the date of the allocation of the applicable Purchase Payment. The final transfer includes the interest credited during the period (but see the section below for the effect of withdrawals and Optional Benefit Transfers).
We will make transfers in accordance with your allocation instructions. You may change the Investment Options to which transfers from the DCA MVA Options are made by furnishing us with new allocation instructions in Good Order. Any transfers occurring after we receive your new allocation instructions will be made in accordance with the new instructions. Transfers from DCA MVA Options will be subject to the investment limitations applicable to any benefit provided under the Annuity. Transfers from DCA MVA Options do not count toward the maximum number of free transfers permitted under the Annuity, and you are not subject to a transfer fee for transfers from the DCA MVA Options. Transfers from DCA MVA Options, made in accordance with the rules of the DCA Program, are not subject to an MVA.
EFFECT OF WITHDRAWALS AND OPTIONAL BENEFIT TRANSFERS ON DCA MVA OPTIONS: We will recalculate the monthly transfer amount to reflect the reduction of Account Value in the DCA MVA Option caused by a withdrawal or transfer of Account Value from the DCA MVA Option made by us pursuant to a transfer calculation formula under any optional benefits made a part of your Annuity ("Optional Benefit Transfer"). This recalculation may include some or all of the interest credited to the date of the next scheduled transfer. Any interest that is not included in the recalculated transfer amount will be paid with the final transfer amount, unless there is another subsequent withdrawal or Optional Benefit Transfer. Deductions of the Annual Maintenance Fee, Premium Based Charge, or any other charges for optional benefits are treated as withdrawals for this recalculation purpose. If a withdrawal or Optional Benefit Transfer reduces the monthly transfer amount below the Minimum Monthly Transfer Amount shown in the DCA Program Schedule Supplement, the remaining balance in the DCA MVA Option will be transferred on the next monthly transfer date to the most-recently selected Investment
P-RID-DCA(5/11) 2




Options applicable to the DCA MVA Option. If there is no Account Value remaining in the DCA MVA Option following a withdrawal or Optional Benefit Transfer, the DCA MVA Option will terminate.
CANCELLATION: You may cancel your participation in the DCA Program by submitting a request in Good Order. Your Account Value in all current DCA MVA Options will be allocated to the Investment Options according to the instructions provided with your cancellation notice. If you have not provided any allocation instructions, we will allocate your Account Value in the DCA MVA Option(s) on a pro-rata basis to the Sub-accounts to which your Account Value is then allocated, excluding any Sub-accounts to which you are not permitted to electively allocate or transfer Account Value. If your Account Value is not allocated to any Sub-accounts at the time of cancellation, we will allocate your Account Value in the DCA MVA Option(s) to a money market Investment Option. Re-allocations of Account Value in DCA MVA Options, due to your cancellation of participation in the DCA Program, may be subject to an MVA.

[1 + j + k]

where: i = the Index Rate established at inception of a DCA MVA Option.
This Index Rate will be based on a Constant Maturity Treasury
(CMT) rate for a maturity (in months) equal to the initial
duration of the DCA MVA Option. This CMT rate will be
determined based on the weekly average of the CMT Index of
appropriate maturity as of two weeks prior to initiation of the
DCA MVA Option. The CMT Index will be based on "Treasury
constant maturities nominal 12" rates as published in Federal
Reserve Statistical Release H.15. If a CMT index for the number
of months needed is not available, the applicable CMT index
will be determined based on a linear interpolation of the
published CMT indices;

j = the Index Rate determined at the time the MVA calculation is
needed, based on a CMT rate for the amount of time remaining in
the DCA MVA Option. The amount of time will be based on the
number of complete months remaining in the DCA MVA Option,
rounded up to the nearest whole month. This CMT rate will be
determined based on the weekly average of the CMT Index of
appropriate maturity as of two weeks prior to the date for
which the MVA calculation is needed. The CMT Index will be
based on "Treasury constant maturities nominal 12" rates as
published in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15. If a CMT
index for the number of months needed is not available, the
applicable CMT index will be determined based on a linear
interpolation of the published CMT indices;

MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT ("MVA") OPTION RIDER
This Rider is made part of your Annuity. For purposes of this Rider, certain provisions of your Annuity are amended as described below. If the terms of your Annuity and those of this Rider conflict, the provisions of this Rider shall control. Should this Rider terminate, any amended or replaced Annuity provisions based on this Rider's terms will revert back to the provisions in the Annuity, except as may be provided below. This Rider describes the "Market Value Adjustment Options" we make available for allocation of your Account Value. This Rider should be read in conjunction with any applicable Death Benefit Rider(s), any Dollar Cost Averaging ("DCA") Program Rider, and any Riders providing for optional benefits which are made a part of your Annuity.
IN THE ACCUMULATION PERIOD, PAYMENTS AND VALUES PROVIDED UNDER THIS RIDER MAY BE SUBJECT TO A MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT, RESULTING IN UPWARD OR DOWNWARD ADJUSTMENTS IN AMOUNTS PAYABLE, AND ARE NOT GUARANTEED. THE MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT APPLIES TO WITHDRAWALS AND TRANSFERS FROM A MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT OPTION WHICH ARE MADE MORE THAN 30 DAYS BEFORE THE END OF A GUARANTEE PERIOD, EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED IN THIS RIDER.
Effective Date: The Effective Date of this Rider is shown in the Market Value Adjustment ("MVA") Option Schedule Supplement.
Definitions:
Account Value: The definition of "Account Value" in your Annuity also includes the value of any allocation to an MVA Option we make available under this Rider. Account Value is determined separately for each MVA Option and then totaled in determining the Account Value for your Annuity. Account Value of each MVA Option includes a Market Value Adjustment (defined below), if applicable.
Crediting Rates: Interest rates credited to MVA Options during the Guarantee Period.
Guarantee Period: The period of time during the Accumulation Period during which we credit a fixed rate of interest to an MVA Option.
Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate: This is the minimum rate of interest we will credit to an MVA Option during its Guarantee Period. The Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate is determined in accordance with applicable state law. The Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate is shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement.
Market Value Adjustment ("MVA"): A positive or negative adjustment used to determine the Account Value in an MVA Option.
Market Value Adjustment Option ("MVA Option"): An Investment Option to which a fixed rate of interest is credited for a specified Guarantee Period. The MVA Option is supported by assets in the MVA Separate Account listed in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement.
Maturity Date: The last day in a Guarantee Period.
1




MVA Separate Account: The separate account listed in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement used in relation to MVA Options.
Owner/Participant: The term "Owner" may be referred to as "Participant" in your Annuity. In this Rider, for simplicity, the Participant is referred to as Owner.
Surrender Value: The definition of "Surrender Value" in your Annuity also includes an adjustment for the amount of any applicable MVA.
Unadjusted Account Value: The Account Value prior to the application of any
MVA.
As of the Effective Date of the Rider, your Annuity is modified to include MVA Options among the Investment Options to which you may allocate Account Value. The following sections, describing the operation of these MVA Options, are made a part of your Annuity:
I. MVA OPTIONS
Each MVA Option earns a fixed rate of interest throughout its duration (the "Guarantee Period"). We may allow you to invest in multiple MVA Options. We may limit the amount of your Account Value you may allocate to the MVA Options.
The Guarantee Period for an MVA Option begins: (a) when all or part of a Purchase Payment is allocated to that particular MVA Option; or (b) upon transfer of any of your Account Value to that particular MVA Option.
We may offer multiple Guarantee Period durations. To the extent permitted by law, we may at any time offer Guarantee Period durations that differ from those available when your Annuity was issued. Upon maturity of an MVA Option, we may stop, limit, or restrict the availability of certain Guarantee Period durations that we make available. We may discontinue making MVA Options available for transfers of Account Value or allocation of new Purchase Payments. If we do so, we will notify you. We may limit availability of certain Guarantee Period durations if, by electing an MVA Option with such a Guarantee Period duration, its Maturity Date would occur subsequent to the Annuity Date. We may offer multiple Guarantee Periods of equal duration, but with different Crediting Rates. We may limit access to certain Guarantee Period durations, depending on the use of the Annuity.
Crediting Rates: We credit interest to amounts allocated to an MVA Option at the daily equivalent of the Crediting Rate in effect for that Guarantee Period duration when the allocation is made. We declare the Crediting Rates applicable to the various Guarantee Period durations we offer. Crediting Rates are expressed in terms of effective annualized rates of interest. The Crediting Rate is guaranteed throughout the Guarantee Period of each MVA Option. We will inform you of the Crediting Rate for an MVA Option, as well as its Maturity Date, when we confirm your allocation.
The Crediting Rates will never be less than the Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement.
Annual Maintenance Fee: If any portion of your Account Value is allocated to an MVA Option at the time an Annual Maintenance Fee would be deducted from your Annuity, the Annual Maintenance Fee will be deducted from the MVA Options only in the event the Account Value in the Sub-accounts is not enough to satisfy the Annual Maintenance Fee. If this happens: (1) the Annual Maintenance Fee shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement will be substituted for the Annual Maintenance Fee shown in the Annuity Schedule; and (2) the Annual Maintenance Fee will be deducted from the MVA Options in the same order as described in the "Allocation Rules for MVA Options" section for the order of withdrawals from multiple MVA Options.
2




II. ACCOUNT VALUE OF MVA OPTIONS
The Account Value of each MVA Option is the amount allocated to the MVA Option at the start of its Guarantee Period, plus the interest credited during its Guarantee Period, less any withdrawals, transfers, and any charges assessed, multiplied by the MVA factor, if applicable. We value each MVA Option separately.
We use a formula to determine any applicable MVA factor and any MVA applicable to surrenders, withdrawals or transfers from MVA Options ("the MVA Formula"). The formula is applied separately to each MVA Option. The MVA formula is set forth in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement.
We do not apply an MVA:
. in determining the Account Value of a MVA Option on its Maturity Date or within the immediately preceding thirty days;
. to amounts distributed as Required Minimum Distributions which we have calculated and provided through a program of systematic withdrawals we make available;
. when Account Value is transferred from the MVA Option by us pursuant to a transfer calculation formula under any optional benefits made a part of your Annuity;
. when we deduct from the Account Value for any applicable Annual Maintenance Fees or charges for optional benefits;
. on the Annuity Date; or
. when a Death Benefit is determined.
We reserve the right to waive the Liquidity Factor shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement under certain circumstances including, but not limited to, the amount to be refunded if you exercise the Right to Cancel.
III. ALLOCATION RULES FOR MVA OPTIONS
Withdrawals: Unless we receive other instructions from you prior to a withdrawal, withdrawals are taken pro-rata from the Investment Options, including any MVA Options to which you have allocated Account Value, based on the then current Account Values in such Investment Options. For purposes of calculating the applicable portion to deduct from MVA Options, the Account Value in all your MVA Options is deemed to be in one Investment Option.
If Account Value is to be withdrawn from multiple MVA Options and you do not provide instructions indicating the MVA Options from which Account Value should be taken, then: (a) we take Account Value first from the MVA Option with the shortest amount of time remaining to the end of its Guarantee Period, and then from the MVA Option with the next shortest amount of time remaining to the end of its Guarantee Period, etc.; and (b) if there are multiple MVA Options with the same amount of time left in each Guarantee Period, then among such MVA Options we first take Account Value from the MVA Option that has the shortest Guarantee Period duration. If multiple MVA Options with equal Guarantee Period durations have the same amount of time left to the end of such Guarantee Periods, we withdraw amounts proportionately from those MVA Options based on the then current Account Value.
While withdrawals from an MVA Option on its Maturity Date, or within the preceding 30 days, are not subject to an MVA, such withdrawals may be subject to any applicable charges or fees, as shown in the Annuity Schedule.
Should you request a transaction that would reduce the Account Value remaining in an MVA Option below the Minimum Investment Option Amount shown in the Annuity Schedule, we reserve the right to add the balance of your Account Value in the applicable MVA Option to the transaction and close out your balance in that MVA Option, subject to any applicable MVA.
3




Transfers: Transfers of Account Value from an MVA Option on its Maturity Date, or within the immediately preceding thirty days, are not subject to a Transfer Fee and are not counted in determining whether other transfers may be subject to a Transfer Fee. We reserve the right to require two business days' notice prior to any transfer out of an MVA Option if the amount to be transferred exceeds the MVA Transfer Limit shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement. Transfers from the MVA Options, including those made by us pursuant to a transfer calculation formula under any optional benefits made a part of your Annuity, follow the same order as described in the second paragraph of the above "Withdrawals" section.
IV. MATURITY OF AN MVA OPTION
An MVA Option ends on the earliest of: the Maturity Date of the Guarantee Period; the date the entire amount in the MVA Option is withdrawn or transferred; the Annuity Date; the date the Annuity is surrendered; and the date as of which a Death Benefit is determined unless the Annuity is continued by a Spouse Beneficiary.
We will notify you before an MVA Option matures. You may elect to have the value of the MVA Option on its Maturity Date transferred to any Investment Option, including any MVA Option, we then make available.
If we do not receive instructions from you in Good Order at our Service Office before the Maturity Date of the MVA Option, regarding how the Account Value in your maturing MVA Option is to be allocated, we will allocate the Account Value in the maturing MVA Option to a money market Investment Option, unless the Maturity Date is the Annuity Date.
V. MVA SEPARATE ACCOUNT
Assets supporting our obligations based on Account Value invested in the MVA Options are held in the MVA Separate Account shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement. The MVA Separate Account is a "non-unitized" separate account established under the laws of the State of Arizona. Such obligations are based on the interest rates we credit to MVA Options and the terms of the annuities. These obligations do not depend on the investment performance of the assets in the MVA Separate Account. There are no discrete units in the MVA Separate Account. No party with rights under any annuity participates in the investment gain or loss from assets in the MVA Separate Account. Such gain or loss accrues solely to us.
We retain the risk that the value of the assets in the MVA Separate Account may drop below the reserves and other liabilities we must maintain. Should the value of the assets in the MVA Separate Account drop below the reserves and other liabilities we must maintain in relation to the annuities supported by such assets, we will transfer assets from our General Account to the MVA Separate Account to make up the difference. We have the right to transfer to our General Account any assets of the MVA Separate Account in excess of such reserves and other liabilities. We maintain assets in the MVA Separate Account supporting a number of annuities we offer. These assets may only be charged with liabilities that arise from such annuities and not with liabilities arising out of any other business we may conduct.
VI. DEATH BENEFIT
The calculation of the Basic Death Benefit described in your Annuity, exclusive of any Death Benefit rider made a part of your Annuity, will be equal to your Unadjusted Account Value on the date we receive Due Proof of Death, less the amount of any Purchase Credits applied during the period beginning 12 months prior to the decedent's date of death and ending on the date we receive Due Proof of Death. In the event of Spousal Continuation, we do not reduce the Death Benefit by any Purchase Credits. However, if the Annuity is surrendered within 12 months of Spousal Continuation, we will deduct from the Surrender Value any Purchase Credits applied during the period beginning 12 months prior to the decedent's date of death and ending on the
4




date we receive Due Proof of Death. We reserve the right to waive, on a non-discriminatory basis, our right to deduct such Purchase Credits. Please refer to the Annuity Schedule to determine if your Annuity makes provision for any Purchase Credits. The impact of any MVA on any other Death Benefit is described in the Death Benefit Rider(s) made a part of your Annuity.
VII. MODIFICATION OF GENERAL PROVISIONS
The "General Provisions" section of the Annuity is modified as follows:
(1) The "Deferral of Transactions" sub-section of the General Provisions is modified such that, if we defer a distribution or transfer from an MVA Option for more than thirty days, we will pay interest as required by state law.
(2) The "Reserved Rights" sub-section of the General Provisions is expanded to include the right to combine the MVA Separate Account shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement with other "non-unitized" separate accounts.
VIII. TERMINATION OF THIS RIDER
Termination due to Death: This Rider terminates automatically as of the date the Annuity's Death Benefit is determined, unless the Annuity is continued by a Spouse Beneficiary.
Termination on the Annuity Date: This Rider terminates automatically as of the Annuity Date.
Termination upon Surrender: This Rider terminates upon surrender of the Annuity to which it is made a part.

MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT ("MVA") OPTION SCHEDULE SUPPLEMENT
Annuity Number: [001-00001]
Effective Date of the Market Value Adjustment Option Rider: [Issue Date of the Annuity]
Annual Maintenance Fee:
MVA Separate Account: [Pruco Life Modified Guaranteed Annuity Account]
Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate: [3.0%]
Liquidity Factor: [0.0025]
MVA Transfer Limit: [$500,000]
MVA Formula: [The MVA factor is equal to:
1 + i
[---------] /n/12/ l + j + k
where: i = the Crediting Rate for the MVA Option;
j = the rate for the remaining Guarantee Period, determined as described below;
k = the Liquidity Factor shown in this Schedule Supplement; and
n = the number of months remaining in the Guarantee Period duration, rounded up to the nearest whole month.
For the purposes of determining "j",
Y = n / 12.
GP1 = the smallest whole number of years greater than or equal to Y.
r1 = the rate for Guarantee Periods of duration GP1, which will equal the Crediting Rate if such Guarantee Period duration is currently available.
GP2 = the greatest whole number of years less than or equal to Y, but not less than 1.
r2 = the rate for Guarantee Periods of duration GP2, which will equal the Crediting Rate if such Guarantee Period duration is currently available.
If we do not currently offer a Guarantee Period of duration GP1 or duration GP2, we will determine r1 and/or r2 by linearly interpolating between the current rates of Guarantee Periods closest in duration. If we cannot interpolate because a Guarantee Period of lesser duration is not available, then r1 and/or r2 will equal to [(1) + (2) - (3)], where (1), (2) and (3) are defined as:

MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT ("MVA") OPTION SCHEDULE SUPPLEMENT (Continued)
(1) = the current Treasury spot rate for GP1 or GP2, respectively, and
(2) = the current Crediting Rate for the next longer Guarantee Period duration currently available, and
(3) = the current Treasury spot rate for the next longer Guarantee Period duration currently available.
The term "current Treasury spot rate" refers to the rates that existed at the time the Crediting Rates were last determined.
To determine "j":
If Y is an integer, and if Y is equal to a Guarantee Period duration that we currently offer," j" is equal to the Crediting Rate associated with a Guarantee Period duration of Y years.
If Y is less than 1, then "j" = r2.
Otherwise, we determine "j" by linearly interpolating between r1 and r2, using the following formula:
j = (r1 * (Y - GP2) + r2 * (GP1 - Y)) / (GP1 - GP2)
The current rate ("j") in the MVA formula is subject to the Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate shown above.]

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING ("DCA") PROGRAM RIDER
This Dollar Cost Averaging Program Rider ("DCA Program Rider") is made part of your Annuity. For purposes of this Rider, certain provisions of your Annuity are amended as described below. Should this Rider terminate, any amended or replaced Annuity provisions based on this Rider's terms will revert back to the provisions in the Annuity, except as may be provided below.
This Rider should be read in conjunction with the Market Value Adjustment ("MVA") Option Rider, any applicable Death Benefit Rider(s), and any Riders providing for optional benefits which are made a part of your Annuity. If there is a conflict between the provisions of this DCA Program Rider and the terms of the Annuity or the MVA Option Rider, the provisions of this DCA Program Rider shall control.
This DCA Program Rider provides for Dollar Cost Averaging MVA Options ("DCA MVA Options") designed to transfer Account Value from a Market Value Adjustment Option ("MVA Option") to other Investment Options that you have specified which we offer, on a monthly basis. It also provides for a modification, as described below, of the Guarantee Period durations and Market Value Adjustment Formula for MVA Options with respect to the DCA MVA Options.
This program of DCA MVA Options is separate from any other dollar cost averaging program we may make available. The DCA MVA Options may be utilized only as permitted by us in accordance with our rules at the time of election, and may not be available in conjunction with other programs and benefits we may make available. We may modify the terms of the DCA MVA Options, or discontinue making the DCA MVA Options available for allocation of new Purchase Payments. If we do so, we will notify you. You may elect to participate in the DCA MVA Options by submitting a request to us in Good Order.
Capitalized terms in this DCA Program Rider are defined in this Rider, your Annuity, or any MVA Option Rider made a part of your Annuity.
DCA MVA OPTIONS TERMS AND CONDITIONS:
(a) DCA MVA Options may only be selected in conjunction with, and simultaneous to, new Purchase Payment allocations. The minimum Purchase Payment allocation to a DCA MVA Option is shown in the DCA Program Schedule Supplement. You may not transfer Account Value into a DCA MVA Option. Multiple DCA MVA Options are permitted, subject to our allocation rules.
(b) You may only allocate Purchase Payments to the DCA MVA Option Guarantee Period durations we make available.
(c) We may limit the Investment Options into which Account Value may be transferred from a DCA MVA Option.
(d) Crediting Rates will be declared by us on or before the date allocations are made into a DCA MVA Option. The Crediting Rates for each DCA MVA Option we make available will never be less than the Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement, made a part of your Annuity.
1




(e) We credit interest daily to the amounts in each DCA MVA Option we make available at the daily equivalent of a specific annualized rate declared for that DCA MVA Option until the earliest of: 1) the date the entire amount in the DCA MVA Option is transferred out of the DCA MVA Option; 2) the date the entire amount in the DCA MVA Option is withdrawn; 3) the date as of which any Death Benefit is determined, unless the Annuity is continued by a Spouse Beneficiary; and 4) the Annuity Date.
(f) Monthly transfers will be made during the Guarantee Period of the DCA MVA Option. Please refer to the "Transfers from DCA MVA Options" section below.
MVA OPTION GUARANTEE PERIOD DURATIONS FOR DCA MVA OPTIONS: We may offer certain MVA Option Guarantee Period durations only for use with the DCA MVA Options. These Guarantee Period durations are not available for existing Account Value.
MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT FORMULA APPLICABLE TO DCA MVA OPTIONS: The MVA Formula stated in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement is replaced with the Dollar Cost Averaging MVA Formula shown in the DCA Program Schedule Supplement. The Dollar Cost Averaging MVA Formula is used for purposes of determining the MVA, if any, applicable to DCA MVA Options to which assets are allocated. The formula is applied separately to each DCA MVA Option.
We do not apply an MVA to transfers made from DCA MVA Options or Optional Benefit Transfers (defined below). However, withdrawals or transfers from a DCA MVA Option made outside the DCA Program are subject to an MVA, assuming that no waiver of the MVA otherwise applies. If you cancel participation in the DCA Program, re-allocations of your Account Value due to cancellation are subject to an MVA. If you surrender the Annuity while participating in DCA MVA Options, the Surrender Value reflects any applicable MVA.
TRANSFERS FROM DCA MVA OPTIONS: Purchase Payments allocated to DCA MVA Options, including any Purchase Credits in relation to such Purchase Payments, are transferred monthly and systematically, based on a duration we make available, to the Investment Options you specify. Refer to your Annuity Schedule to determine if your Annuity makes provision for Purchase Credits. We will transfer amounts in a series of substantially equal amounts on each monthly transfer date. The first transfer from the DCA MVA Option is made as of the date of the allocation of the applicable Purchase Payment. The final transfer includes the interest credited during the period (but see the section below for the effect of withdrawals and Optional Benefit Transfers).
We will make transfers in accordance with your allocation instructions. You may change the Investment Options to which transfers from the DCA MVA Options are made by furnishing us with new allocation instructions in Good Order. Any transfers occurring after we receive your new allocation instructions will be made in accordance with the new instructions. Transfers from DCA MVA Options will be subject to the investment limitations applicable to any benefit provided under the Annuity. Transfers from DCA MVA Options do not count toward the maximum number of free transfers permitted under the Annuity, and you are not subject to a transfer fee for transfers from the DCA MVA Options. Transfers from DCA MVA Options, made in accordance with the rules of the DCA Program, are not subject to an MVA.
EFFECT OF WITHDRAWALS AND OPTIONAL BENEFIT TRANSFERS ON DCA MVA OPTIONS: We will recalculate the monthly transfer amount to reflect the reduction of Account Value in the DCA MVA Option caused by a withdrawal or transfer of Account Value from the DCA MVA Option made by us pursuant to a transfer calculation formula under any optional benefits made a part of your Annuity ("Optional Benefit Transfer"). This recalculation may include some or all of the interest credited to the date of the next scheduled transfer. Any interest that is not included in the recalculated transfer amount will be paid with the final transfer amount, unless there is another subsequent withdrawal or Optional Benefit Transfer. Deductions of the Annual Maintenance Fee or any other charges for optional benefits are treated as withdrawals for this recalculation purpose. If a withdrawal or Optional Benefit Transfer reduces the monthly transfer amount below the Minimum Monthly Transfer Amount shown in the DCA
2




Program Schedule Supplement, the remaining balance in the DCA MVA Option will be transferred on the next monthly transfer date to the most-recently selected Investment Options applicable to the DCA MVA Option. If there is no Account Value remaining in the DCA MVA Option following a withdrawal or Optional Benefit Transfer, the DCA MVA Option will terminate.
CANCELLATION: You may cancel your participation in the DCA Program by submitting a request in Good Order. Your Account Value in all current DCA MVA Options will be allocated to the Investment Options according to the instructions provided with your cancellation notice. If you have not provided any allocation instructions, we will allocate your Account Value in the DCA MVA Option(s) on a pro-rata basis to the Sub-accounts to which your Account Value is then allocated, excluding any Sub-accounts to which you are not permitted to electively allocate or transfer Account Value. If your Account Value is not allocated to any Sub-accounts at the time of cancellation, we will allocate your Account Value in the DCA MVA Option(s) to a money market Investment Option. Re-allocations of Account Value in DCA MVA Options, due to your cancellation of participation in the DCA Program, may be subject to an MVA.

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING ("DCA") PROGRAM SCHEDULE SUPPLEMENT
Annuity Number: [001-00001]
Effective Date of the Dollar Cost Averaging Program Rider: [Issue Date of the Annuity]
Minimum Purchase Payment Allocation to a DCA MVA Option: [$2,000]
Minimum Monthly Transfer Amount: [$100]
Dollar Cost Averaging MVA Formula: The Market Value Adjustment Factor applicable to the DCA MVA Options we make available is as follows:
[MVA Factor =
l + i
[---------] /n/12/ l + j + k
where: i = the Index Rate established at inception of a DCA MVA Option.
This Index Rate will be based on a Constant Maturity Treasury (CMT) rate for a maturity (in months) equal to the initial duration of the DCA MVA Option. This CMT rate will be determined based on the weekly average of the CMT Index of appropriate maturity as of two weeks prior to initiation of the DCA MVA Option. The CMT Index will be based on "Treasury constant maturities nominal 12" rates as published in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15. If a CMT index for the number of months needed is not available, the applicable CMT index will be determined based on a linear interpolation of the published CMT indices;
j = the Index Rate determined at the time the MVA calculation is needed, based on a CMT rate for the amount of time remaining in the DCA MVA Option. The amount of time will be based on the number of complete months remaining in the DCA MVA Option, rounded up to the nearest whole month. This CMT rate will be determined based on the weekly average of the CMT Index of appropriate maturity as of two weeks prior to the date for which the MVA calculation is needed. The CMT Index will be based on "Treasury constant maturities nominal 12" rates as published in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15. If a CMT index for the number of months needed is not available, the applicable CMT index will be determined based on a linear interpolation of the published CMT indices;

MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT ("MVA") OPTION RIDER
This Rider is made part of your Annuity. For purposes of this Rider, certain provisions of your Annuity are amended as described below. If the terms of your Annuity and those of this Rider conflict, the provisions of this Rider shall control. Should this Rider terminate, any amended or replaced Annuity provisions based on this Rider's terms will revert to the provisions in the Annuity, except as may be provided below. This Rider describes the "Market Value Adjustment Options" we make available for allocation of your Account Value. This Rider should be read in conjunction with any applicable Death Benefit Rider(s), any Dollar Cost Averaging ("DCA") Program Rider, and any Riders providing for optional benefits which are made a part of your Annuity.
IN THE ACCUMULATION PERIOD, PAYMENTS AND VALUES PROVIDED UNDER THIS RIDER MAY BE SUBJECT TO A MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT, RESULTING IN UPWARD OR DOWNWARD ADJUSTMENTS IN AMOUNTS PAYABLE, AND ARE NOT GUARANTEED. THE MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT APPLIES TO WITHDRAWALS AND TRANSFERS FROM A MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT OPTION WHICH ARE MADE MORE THAN 30 DAYS BEFORE THE END OF A GUARANTEE PERIOD, EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED IN THIS RIDER.
Effective Date: The Effective Date of this Rider is shown in the Market Value Adjustment ("MVA") Option Schedule Supplement.
Definitions:
Account Value: The definition of "Account Value" in your Annuity is modified by this Rider to include, not only any allocations to the Sub-accounts, but to also include the value of any allocation to an MVA Option we make available under this Rider. Account Value is determined separately for each MVA Option and then totaled and added to the value of the allocations to the Sub-accounts, in determining the Account Value for your Annuity. Account Value of each MVA Option includes a Market Value Adjustment (defined below), if applicable.
Crediting Rates: Interest rates credited to MVA Options during the Guarantee Period.
Guarantee Period: The period of time during the Accumulation Period during which we credit a fixed rate of interest to an MVA Option.
Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate: This is the minimum rate of interest we will credit to an MVA Option during its Guarantee Period. The Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate is determined in accordance with applicable state law. The Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate is shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement.
Market Value Adjustment ("MVA"): A positive or negative adjustment used to determine the Account Value in an MVA Option.
Market Value Adjustment Option ("MVA Option"): An Investment Option to which a fixed rate of interest is credited for a specified Guarantee Period. The MVA Option is supported by assets in the MVA Separate Account listed in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement.
Maturity Date: The last day in a Guarantee Period.
P-RID-MVA(5/14)

MVA Separate Account: The separate account listed in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement used in relation to MVA Options.
Owner/Participant: The term "Owner" may be referred to as "Participant" in your Annuity. In this Rider, for simplicity, the Participant is referred to as Owner.
Surrender Value: The definition of "Surrender Value" in your Annuity also includes an adjustment for the amount of any applicable MVA.
Unadjusted Account Value: The Account Value prior to the application of any
MVA.
As of the Effective Date of the Rider, your Annuity is modified to include MVA Options among the Investment Options to which you may allocate Account Value. The following sections, describing the operation of these MVA Options, are made a part of your Annuity:
I. MVA OPTIONS
Each MVA Option earns a fixed rate of interest throughout its duration (the "Guarantee Period"). We may allow you to invest in multiple MVA Options. We may limit the amount of your Account Value you may allocate to the MVA Options.
The Guarantee Period for an MVA Option begins: (a) when all or part of a Purchase Payment is allocated to that particular MVA Option; or (b) upon transfer of any of your Account Value to that particular MVA Option.
We may offer multiple Guarantee Period durations. To the extent permitted by law, we may at any time offer Guarantee Period durations that differ from those available when your Annuity was issued. Upon maturity of an MVA Option, we may stop, limit, or restrict the availability of certain Guarantee Period durations that we make available. We may discontinue making MVA Options available for transfers of Account Value or allocation of new Purchase Payments. If we do so, we will notify you. We may limit availability of certain Guarantee Period durations if, by electing an MVA Option with such a Guarantee Period duration, its Maturity Date would occur after the Annuity Date. We may offer multiple Guarantee Periods of equal duration, but with different Crediting Rates. We may limit access to certain Guarantee Period durations, depending on the use of the Annuity.
Crediting Rates: We credit interest to amounts allocated to an MVA Option at the daily equivalent of the Crediting Rate in effect for that Guarantee Period duration when the allocation is made. We declare the Crediting Rates applicable to the various Guarantee Period durations we offer. Crediting Rates are expressed in terms of effective annualized rates of interest. The Crediting Rate is guaranteed throughout the Guarantee Period of each MVA Option. We will inform you of the Crediting Rate for an MVA Option, as well as its Maturity Date, when we confirm your allocation.
The Crediting Rates will never be less than the Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement.
Annual Maintenance Fee and Premium Based Insurance Charge: If any portion of your Account Value is allocated to an MVA Option at the time an Annual Maintenance Fee or Premium Based Insurance Charge would be deducted from your Annuity, the Annual Maintenance Fee and/or the Premium Based Insurance Charge will be deducted from the MVA Options only in the event the Account Value in the Sub-accounts is not enough to satisfy the Annual Maintenance Fee and/or Premium Based Insurance Charge. If this happens: (1) the Annual Maintenance Fee shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement will be substituted for the Annual Maintenance Fee shown in the Annuity Schedule; (2) we will deduct only that portion of the Premium Based Insurance Charge that does not reduce the Unadjusted Account Value below the Premium Based Insurance Charge Waiver Amount shown in the Annuity Schedule;
P-RID-MVA(5/14)
2




and (3) the Annual Maintenance Fee and/or Premium Based Insurance Charge will be deducted from the MVA Options in the same order as described in the "Allocation Rules for MVA Options" section for the order of withdrawals from multiple MVA Options.
II. ACCOUNT VALUE OF MVA OPTIONS
The Account Value of each MVA Option is the amount allocated to the MVA Option at the start of its Guarantee Period, plus the interest credited during its Guarantee Period, less any withdrawals, transfers, and any charges assessed, multiplied by the MVA factor, if applicable. We value each MVA Option separately.
We use a formula to determine any applicable MVA factor and any MVA applicable to surrenders, withdrawals or transfers from MVA Options ("the MVA Formula"). The formula is applied separately to each MVA Option. The MVA formula is set forth in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement.
We do not apply an MVA:
. in determining the Account Value of a MVA Option on its Maturity Date or within the immediately preceding thirty days;
. to amounts distributed as Required Minimum Distributions which we have calculated and provided through a program of systematic withdrawals we make available;
. when Account Value is transferred from the MVA Option by us pursuant to a transfer calculation formula under any optional benefits made a part of your Annuity;
. when we deduct from the Account Value for any applicable Annual Maintenance Fees, Premium Based Insurance Charges, or charges for optional benefits;
. on the Annuity Date; or
. when a Death Benefit is determined.
We reserve the right to waive the Liquidity Factor shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement under certain circumstances including, but not limited to, the amount to be refunded if you exercise the Right to Cancel.
III. ALLOCATION RULES FOR MVA OPTIONS
Withdrawals: Unless we receive other instructions from you prior to a withdrawal, withdrawals are taken pro-rata from the Investment Options, including any MVA Options to which you have allocated Account Value, based on the then current Account Values in such Investment Options. For purposes of calculating the applicable portion to deduct from MVA Options, the Account Value in all your MVA Options is deemed to be in one Investment Option.
If Account Value is to be withdrawn from multiple MVA Options and you do not provide instructions indicating the MVA Options from which Account Value should be taken, then: (a) we take Account Value first from the MVA Option with the shortest amount of time remaining to the end of its Guarantee Period, and then from the MVA Option with the next shortest amount of time remaining to the end of its Guarantee Period, etc.; and (b) if there are multiple MVA Options with the same amount of time left in each Guarantee Period, then among such MVA Options we first take Account Value from the MVA Option that has the shortest Guarantee Period duration. If multiple MVA Options with equal Guarantee Period durations have the same amount of time left to the end of such Guarantee Periods, we withdraw amounts proportionately from those MVA Options based on the then current Account Value.
While withdrawals from an MVA Option on its Maturity Date, or within the preceding 30 days, are not subject to an MVA, such withdrawals may be subject to any applicable charges or fees, as shown in the Annuity Schedule.
P-RID-MVA(5/14)
3




Should you request a transaction that would reduce the Account Value remaining in an MVA Option below the Minimum Investment Option Amount shown in the Annuity Schedule, we reserve the right to add the balance of your Account Value in the applicable MVA Option to the transaction and reduce your balance in that MVA Option to zero, subject to any applicable MVA.
Transfers: Transfers of Account Value from an MVA Option on its Maturity Date, or within the immediately preceding thirty days, are not subject to a Transfer Fee and are not counted in determining whether other transfers may be subject to a Transfer Fee. We reserve the right to require two business days' notice prior to any transfer from an MVA Option if the amount to be transferred exceeds the MVA Transfer Limit shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement. Transfers from the MVA Options, including those made by us pursuant to a transfer calculation formula under any optional benefits made a part of your Annuity, follow the same order as described in the second paragraph of the above "Withdrawals" section.
IV. MATURITY OF AN MVA OPTION
An MVA Option ends on the earliest of: the Maturity Date of the Guarantee Period, the date the entire amount in the MVA Option is withdrawn or transferred, the Annuity Date, the date the Annuity is surrendered, and the date as of which a Death Benefit is determined unless the Annuity is continued by a Spouse Beneficiary.
We will notify you before an MVA Option matures. You may elect to have the value of the MVA Option on its Maturity Date transferred to any Investment Option, including any MVA Option, we then make available.
If we do not receive instructions from you in Good Order at our Service Office before the Maturity Date of the MVA Option, regarding how the Account Value in your maturing MVA Option is to be allocated, we will allocate the Account Value in the maturing MVA Option to a money market Investment Option, unless the Maturity Date is the Annuity Date.
V. MVA SEPARATE ACCOUNT
Assets supporting our obligations based on Account Value invested in the MVA Options are held in the MVA Separate Account shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement. The MVA Separate Account is a "non-unitized" separate account established under the laws of the State of Arizona. Such obligations are based on the interest rates we credit to MVA Options and the terms of the annuities. These obligations do not depend on the investment performance of the assets in the MVA Separate Account. There are no discrete units in the MVA Separate Account. No party with rights under any annuity participates in the investment gain or loss from assets in the MVA Separate Account. Such gain or loss accrues solely to us.
We retain the risk that the value of the assets in the MVA Separate Account may drop below the reserves and other liabilities we must maintain. Should the value of the assets in the MVA Separate Account drop below the reserves and other liabilities we must maintain in relation to the annuities supported by such assets, we will transfer assets from our General Account to the MVA Separate Account to make up the difference. We have the right to transfer to our General Account any assets of the MVA Separate Account in excess of such reserves and other liabilities. We maintain assets in the MVA Separate Account supporting a number of annuities we offer. These assets may only be charged with liabilities that arise from such annuities and not with liabilities arising from any other business we may conduct.
P-RID-MVA(5/14)

VI. DEATH BENEFIT
The calculation of the Basic Death Benefit described in your Annuity, exclusive of any Death Benefit rider made a part of your Annuity, will be equal to your Unadjusted Account Value on the date we receive Due Proof of Death. The impact of any MVA on any other Death Benefit is described in the Death Benefit Rider(s) made a part of your Annuity.
VII. MODIFICATION OF GENERAL PROVISIONS
The "General Provisions" section of the Annuity is modified as follows:
(1)The "Deferral of Transactions" sub-section of the General Provisions is modified such that, if we defer a distribution or transfer from an MVA Option for more than thirty days, we will pay interest as required by state law.
(2)The "Reserved Rights" sub-section of the General Provisions is expanded to include the right to combine the MVA Separate Account shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement with other "non-unitized" separate accounts.
VIII. TERMINATION OF THIS RIDER
Termination due to Death: This Rider terminates automatically as of the date the Annuity's Death Benefit is determined, unless the Annuity is continued by a Spouse Beneficiary.
Termination on the Annuity Date: This Rider terminates automatically as of the Annuity Date.
Termination upon Surrender: This Rider terminates upon surrender of the Annuity to which it is made a part.

(b)You may only allocate Purchase Payments to the DCA MVA Option Guarantee Period durations we make available.
(c)We may limit the Investment Options into which Account Value may be transferred from a DCA MVA Option.
(d)Crediting Rates will be declared by us on or before the date allocations are made into a DCA MVA Option. The Crediting Rates for each DCA MVA Option we make available will never be less than the Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate shown in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement, made a part of your Annuity.

(e)We credit interest daily to the amounts in each DCA MVA Option we make available at the daily equivalent of a specific annualized rate declared for that DCA MVA Option until the earliest of: 1) the date the entire amount in the DCA MVA Option is transferred from the DCA MVA Option, 2) the date the entire amount in the DCA MVA Option is withdrawn, 3) the date as of which any Death Benefit is determined, unless the Annuity is continued by a Spouse Beneficiary, and 4) the Annuity Date.
(f)Monthly transfers will be made during the Guarantee Period of the DCA MVA Option. Please refer to the "Transfers from DCA MVA Options" section below.
MVA OPTION GUARANTEE PERIOD DURATIONS FOR DCA MVA OPTIONS: We may offer certain MVA Option Guarantee Period durations only for use with the DCA MVA Options. These Guarantee Period durations are not available for existing Account Value.
MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT FORMULA APPLICABLE TO DCA MVA OPTIONS: The MVA Formula stated in the MVA Option Schedule Supplement is replaced with the Dollar Cost Averaging MVA Formula shown in the DCA Program Schedule Supplement. The Dollar Cost Averaging MVA Formula is used for purposes of determining the MVA, if any, applicable to DCA MVA Options to which assets are allocated. The formula is applied separately to each DCA MVA Option.
We do not apply an MVA to transfers made from DCA MVA Options or Optional Benefit Transfers (defined below). However, withdrawals or transfers from a DCA MVA Option made outside the DCA Program are subject to an MVA, assuming that no waiver of the MVA otherwise applies. If you cancel participation in the DCA Program, re-allocations of your Account Value due to cancellation are subject to an MVA. If you surrender the Annuity while participating in DCA MVA Options, the Surrender Value reflects any applicable MVA.
TRANSFERS FROM DCA MVA OPTIONS: Purchase Payments allocated to DCA MVA Options are transferred monthly and systematically, based on a duration we make available, to the Investment Options you specify. We will transfer amounts in a series of substantially equal amounts on each monthly transfer date. The first transfer from the DCA MVA Option is made as of the date of the allocation of the applicable Purchase Payment. The final transfer includes the interest credited during the period (but see the section below for the effect of withdrawals and Optional Benefit Transfers).
We will make transfers in accordance with your allocation instructions. You may change the Investment Options to which transfers from the DCA MVA Options are made by furnishing us with new allocation instructions in Good Order. Any transfers occurring after we receive your new allocation instructions will be made in accordance with the new instructions. Transfers from DCA MVA Options will be subject to the investment limitations applicable to any benefit provided under the Annuity. Transfers from DCA MVA Options do not count toward the maximum number of free transfers permitted under the Annuity, and you are not subject to a transfer fee for transfers from the DCA MVA Options. Transfers from DCA MVA Options, made in accordance with the rules of the DCA Program, are not subject to an MVA.
EFFECT OF WITHDRAWALS AND OPTIONAL BENEFIT TRANSFERS ON DCA MVA OPTIONS: We will recalculate the monthly transfer amount to reflect the reduction of Account Value in the DCA MVA Option caused by a withdrawal or transfer of Account Value from the DCA MVA Option made by us pursuant to a transfer calculation formula under any optional benefits made a part of your Annuity ("Optional Benefit Transfer"). This recalculation may include some or all of the interest credited to the date of the next scheduled transfer. Any interest that is not included in the recalculated transfer amount will be paid with the final transfer amount, unless there is another subsequent withdrawal or Optional Benefit Transfer. Deductions of the Annual Maintenance Fee, Premium Based Insurance Charge, or any other charges for optional benefits are treated as withdrawals for this recalculation purpose. If a withdrawal or Optional Benefit Transfer reduces the monthly transfer amount below the Minimum Monthly Transfer Amount shown in the DCA Program Schedule Supplement, the remaining balance in the DCA MVA Option will be transferred on the next monthly transfer date to the most-recently selected Investment

Options applicable to the DCA MVA Option. If there is no Account Value remaining in the DCA MVA Option following a withdrawal or Optional Benefit Transfer, the DCA MVA Option will terminate.
CANCELLATION: You may cancel your participation in the DCA Program by submitting a request in Good Order. Your Account Value in all current DCA MVA Options will be allocated to the Investment Options according to the instructions provided with your cancellation notice. If you have not provided any allocation instructions, we will allocate your Account Value in the DCA MVA Option(s) on a pro-rata basis to the Sub-accounts to which your Account Value is then allocated, excluding any Sub-accounts to which you are not permitted to electively allocate or transfer Account Value. If your Account Value is not allocated to any Sub-accounts at the time of cancellation, we will allocate your Account Value in the DCA MVA Option(s) to a money market Investment Option. Re-allocations of Account Value in DCA MVA Options, due to your cancellation of participation in the DCA Program, may be subject to an MVA.

RE:
Pruco Life Insurance Company (“Registrant”)
Registration Statement on Form S-3
Dear Sir/Madam:
In my capacity as Vice President and Corporate Counsel of The Prudential Insurance Company of America, I have reviewed the establishment of the Pruco Life Modified Guaranteed Annuity Account (the “Account”) by the Board of Directors of Pruco Life Insurance Company (“Pruco Life”) as a non-unitized separate account for assets applicable to certain market value adjustment annuity contracts, pursuant to the provisions of Section 20-2601 et seq. of the Arizona Insurance Code. I was responsible for the oversight of the preparation and review of certain Registration Statements on Form S-3 filed by Pruco Life in 2017 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933 for the registration of certain market value adjustment annuity contracts issued with respect to the Account.
I am of the following opinion: (1) Pruco Life was duly organized under the laws of Arizona and is a validly existing corporation; (2) the Account has been duly created and is validly existing as a non-unitized separate account pursuant to the provisions of Arizona law, and (3) the market value adjustment annuity contracts are legal and binding obligations of Pruco Life in accordance with their terms. In arriving at the foregoing opinion, I have made such examination of law and examined such records and other documents as I judged to be necessary or appropriate.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Douglas E. Scully
