Common use of BONUS CREDIT Clause in Contracts

BONUS CREDIT. A Bonus Credit is paid into this Contract by LNL for the initial and all subsequent Purchase Payments made to this Contract. The amount of the Bonus Credit is calculated as a percentage of the Purchase Payment. The Bonus Credit percentage is based upon the amount of the Owner's Investment at the time of a Purchase Payment.

The additional Bonus Credit will be determined by multiplying the sum of the prior Purchase Payments by the additional Bonus Credit percentage. The additional Bonus Credit percentage will be the difference between the percentage applicable to the subsequent Purchase Payment and the percentage applied to the prior Purchase Payments. This additional Bonus Credit will be paid into the Contract on the same date the subsequent Purchase Payment is allocated, and will not be applied to the Contract retroactively to the dates of the prior Purchase Payments.

Bonus Credits will be allocated to the Fixed Account and/or the Variable Sub- accounts of the Contract at the same time and at the same percentages as the Purchase Payments to which they correspond.
