The Allstate® Provider Variable Annuity Prospectus
dated May 1, 2002
This supplement amends certain disclosure contained in the above-referenced prospectus for certain variable annuity contracts (Contracts) issued by Allstate Life Insurance Company.
We have received notice that the Board of Trustees (Board) of the STI Classic Variable Trust has approved the liquidation, on or about May 1, 2007, of the following Fund portfolios:
STI Classic International Equity Fund Portfolio
STI Classic Investment Bond Fund Portfolio
(collectively the STI Classic Portfolios)
Due to the liquidation of the STI Classic Portfolios, we will no longer accept new premiums for investment in, nor will we permit transfers to, the STI Classic International Equity Fund Sub-Account or the STI Classic Investment Grade Bond Fund Sub-Account (STI Classic Sub-Accounts) on or after April 27, 2007.
As the STI Classic Sub-Accounts will no longer be offered as an investment alternative, you may wish to transfer, prior to April 27, 2007 some or all of your Contract Value in the STI Classic Sub-Accounts to the other investment alternatives currently offered by your Contract. These transfers are not subject to a transfer fee. Any value remaining in the STI Classic Sub-Accounts will be transferred automatically, as of April 27, 2007, to the Federated Prime Money Fund II Sub-Account, an investment alternative already available under your Contract.
If you currently allocate Contract Value to the STI Classic Sub-Accounts through automatic additions, automatic portfolio rebalancing, dollar cost averaging or systematic withdrawal programs, your allocations in these programs will also need to be changed. If you do not change these allocations to other investment alternatives currently available under your Contract, any allocations to the STI Classic Sub-Accounts will be automatically allocated, as of April 27, 2007, to the Federated Prime Money Fund II Sub-Account.
We will send you a confirmation that shows the amount that is transferred to the Federated Prime Money Fund II Sub-Account or to the investment alternative that you chose and the date of the transaction. For additional information on how to transfer to another investment alternative, or how to make a change to your current allocation(s), please contact your financial representative or call our Customer Service Center at 1-800-203-0068.
If your Contract Value in the STI Classic Sub-Accounts is transferred automatically to the Federated Prime Money Fund II Sub-Account, for 60 days following the automatic transfer, you may transfer your Contract Value in the Federated Prime Money Fund II Sub-Account to any other investment alternative(s) available under your Contract. Such transfer is not subject to a transfer fee.
