13 SIGNATURE(S)

If applying for an IRA or Roth IRA, I acknowledge receiving an IRA disclosure
statement and understand that I will be given a financial disclosure statement
with the contract. I understand that tax deferral is provided by the IRA, and
acknowledge that I am purchasing this contract for its features other than tax
deferral, including the lifetime income payout option, the Death Benefit
protection, the ability to transfer among investment options without sales or
withdrawal charges, and other features as described in the prospectus.

No representative has the authority to make or change a contract or waive any of
the contract rights.

I understand that if I have purchased another non-qualified annuity from
Prudential or an affiliated company this calendar year that they will be
considered as one contract for tax purposes.

I believe that this contract meets my needs and financial objectives.
Furthermore, I (1) understand that any amount of purchase payments allocated to
a variable investment option will reflect the investment experience of that
option and, therefore, annuity payments and surrender values may vary and are
not guaranteed as to a fixed dollar amount, and (2) acknowledge receipt of the
current prospectus for this contract and the variable investment options.

[ ] If this contract has a joint owner, please check this box to authorize
Prudential to act on the instruction(s) of either the owner or joint owner
with regard to transactions under the contract.

[ ] If this application is being signed at the time the contract is delivered, I
acknowledge receipt of the contract.

[ ] Check here to request a Statement of Additional Information.

MINIMUM DISTRIBUTION UNDER AN IRA: IF YOU HAVE NOT MET THE REQUIRED MINIMUM
DISTRIBUTION FOR THE YEAR IN WHICH THE FUNDS ARE PAID TO PRUDENTIAL:

I understand it is my responsibility to remove the minimum distribution from the
purchase payment PRIOR TO sending money to Prudential with this application.
Unless we are notified otherwise, Prudential will assume that the owner has
satisfied their required minimum distributions from other IRA funds.

By signing this form, the trustee(s)/officer(s) hereby represents that the
trustee(s)/officer(s) possess(es) the authority, on behalf of the non-natural
person, to purchase the annuity contract and to exercise all rights of ownership
and control over the contract, including the right to make purchase payments to
the contract.

We must have both the owner's and annuitant's signatures even if this contract
is owned by a trust, corporation, or other entity. If the annuitant is a minor,
please provide the signature of a legal guardian or custodian.

THOSE AMOUNTS ALLOCATED TO ANY MVA OPTION WILL BE SUBJECT TO A MARKET VALUE
ADJUSTMENT IF WITHDRAWN OR TRANSFERRED AT ANY TIME OTHER THAN DURING THE 30-DAY
PERIOD FOLLOWING THE INTEREST CELL'S MATURITY. A MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT CAN BE
A POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE ADJUSTMENT. THERE IS NO MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT AT DEATH.

I hereby represent that my answers to the questions on this application are
correct and true to the best of my knowledge and belief. I have read the
applicable fraud warning for my state listed in section 17. ALL PAYMENTS AND
VALUES PROVIDED BY THE CONTRACT WHEN BASED ON THE INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE OF THE
VARIABLE ACCOUNT ARE VARIABLE AND NOT GUARANTEED AS TO DOLLAR AMOUNT. I
acknowledge receipt of current product and fund prospectuses.
