Level: Face Amount Increasing: Face Amount plus policy value
These amounts may be increased to meet IRS guidelines
Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rates:
Policy Value:
The Policy Value is the starting point for calculating important values under the policy, such as the Cash Surrender Value and the net death benefit. There is no guaranteed minimum Policy Value. The policy may lapse if there is not sufficient Policy Value to pay the Monthly Deductions, the surrender charge and/or any outstanding loan amount and accrued loan interest. The Policy Value is comprised of the value of the Basic Interest Account, the Global Index Account, and the S&P 500® Index Account and the policy loan reserve.
Cash Surrender Value:
If the policy is surrendered, the Cash Surrender Value of the policy is equal to the policy value less any applicable surrender charges and any loan balance. A surrender charge may result in the Cash Surrender Value of the policy being zero. As a result, this policy is not intended for short term savings or short term insurance needs. Excess Index Interest is not credited for partial years on any Index Account Segment.
Monthly Deductions**:
Monthly Deductions are taken from the policy value on each Monthly Policy Date. The Monthly Policy Date is the same day of each month as the Policy Date. The Monthly Deduction consists of the cost of insurance, Monthly Policy Fee, Monthly Expense Charge, charges for additional benefits provided by riders and any charges for substandard class ratings. Monthly Deductions will be taken from the Basic Interest Account, the S&P500® Index Account and Global Index Account in proportion to the values of those accounts on the Monthly Policy Date the deduction is taken. Monthly Deductions will first be taken from the highest numbered Segment and then from the next highest numbered Segment.
Monthly Policy Fee**:
Current: $10
Guaranteed: $12
Monthly Expense Charge :
A charge per thousand of the Face Amount of the Base Policy and Additional Insured Rider. This charge varies by gender, tobacco use, age of the Insured and the Face Amount band.
Base: On a current basis, the charge applies for ten years from issue and ten years from the date of any Face Amount increase.
On a guaranteed basis, the charge applies for ten years from issue or increase date for ages 0-60 and through age 120 for issue ages 61-85.
AIR: This charge applies to any Additional Insured Rider for eight years from rider issue date and eight years from the date of any increase in rider face amount.
Cost of Insurance Charges** (Monthly):
Index Account Monthly Charge:
0.06% per month (0.72% annually) of the Index Account Value. Taken on the monthly policy date through age 120, from the highest numbered segment first.
*Loans and withdrawals can only be made if the policy has been in force long enough and has accumulated sufficient value. Loans and withdrawals will reduce the cash value and death benefit and loans are subject to interest charges. Policy loans are generally not taxable when taken. If a policy is surrendered or lapses while a loan is outstanding, adverse tax consequences may result. Cash withdrawals are also not generally taxable until they exceed basis in the policy. However, if the policy is treated as a modified endowment contract (MEC) by IRC Sec. 7702A, withdrawals and loans are taxable at an ordinary income tax rate when taken to the extent of gain then in the contract and may also be subject to a 10% federal income tax penalty if taken prior to age 59½. Cash distributions associated with benefit reductions, including reductions caused by withdrawals during the first 15 years, may be taxable. Consult with your tax advisor regarding your particular situation.
**The Company has the right to change current charges and cost of insurance rates. The Company may not charge more than the guaranteed maximum charges or rates. Any changes to charges or rates will be based on our expectations as to future cost factors. Such cost factors may include, but are not limited to, mortality, interest, persistency, expenses, reinsurance costs and state and federal taxes.
