Creative may engage in options transactions for the purpose of hedging risk and/or generating portfolio income. The use of options transactions as an investment strategy can involve a high level of inherent risk. Option transactions establish a contract between two parties concerning the buying or selling of an asset at a predetermined price during a specific period of time. During the term of the option contract, the buyer of the option gains the right to demand fulfillment by the seller. Fulfillment may take the form of either selling or purchasing a security, depending upon the nature of the option contract. Generally, the purchase or sale of an option contract shall be with the intent of “hedging” a potential market risk in a client’s portfolio and/or generating income for a client’s portfolio. There can be no guarantee that an options strategy will achieve its objective or prove successful. No client is under any obligation to enter into any option transactions. However, if the client does so, he/she must be prepared to accept the potential for unintended or undesired consequences, such as losing ownership of the security, incurring taxes on capital gains, etc.
Fixed Income Risk. The market value of fixed income investments will change in response to interest rate changes and other factors, such as changes in the effective maturities and credit ratings of fixed income invest- ments. During periods of falling interest rates, the values of out- standing fixed income securities and related financial instruments generally rise. Conversely, during periods of rising interest rates, the values of such securities and related financial instruments generally decline. Fixed income investments are also subject to credit risk. The fund will be exposed to the performance of commodities in the BCOM Index, which may from time to time have a small number of commodity sectors (e.g., energy, metals or agricultural) representing a large portion of the index. As a result, the fund may be subject to greater volatility than if the index were more broadly diversified among commodity sectors. If the fund is exposed to a significant extent to a particular commodity or subset of commodities, the fund will be more exposed to the specific risks relating to such commod- ity or commodities and will be subject to greater volatility than if it were more broadly diversified among commodity sectors.

  • FIXED ACCOUNT FIXED ACCOUNT The Fixed Account is comprised of a one-year Guaranteed Period Option and the Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Option that we may choose to offer. Premium payments applied to and any amounts transferred to the Fixed Account will reflect a fixed interest rate. The interest rates we set will be credited for increments of at least one year measured from each premium payment or transfer date. These rates will never be less than the Fixed Account Guaranteed Minimum Effective Annual Interest Rate shown on Page 3. We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to prohibit premium payments and/or transfers allocated to any of the Fixed Account options described in this section after the Policy Date. We will provide 30 days advance written notice of this decision. We will also provide timely written notification to You once any such prohibition of premium payments and/or transfers is no longer in effect. GUARANTEED PERIOD OPTION We will offer the one-year Guaranteed Period Option for the initial premium payment and may offer it for subsequent premium payments or amounts transferred to the Fixed Account. The current interest rate we set for funds entering a Guaranteed Period Option (GPO) is guaranteed until the end of that option's Guaranteed Period. At that time, the premium payment made or amount transferred into the GPO, less any Withdrawals or transfers from that GPO, plus accrued interest, will be rolled into a new one-year GPO or may be transferred to any Subaccount(s) within the Separate Account(s). You may choose the Investment Option(s) You want the funds transferred into by giving us a written notice within 30 days before the end of the expiring option's Guaranteed Period. However, any Guaranteed Period elected may not extend beyond the maximum Annuity Commencement Date defined in Section 11. In the absence of such election, the funds will be rolled into a new one-year GPO if we are allowing transfers into new one-year GPO's at that time You will be mailed a notice of completion of any rollover with the new interest rate applicable. The new GPO will be deemed as accepted if we do not receive a written rejection within 30 days from the postmark date of the completion notice. If we are prohibiting transfers into new one-year GPO's, we will provide 30 days advance written notice of this decision. We will also provide timely written notification to you once any such prohibition of transfers is no longer in effect. When funds are withdrawn or transferred from the one year GPO, the Policy Value associated with the oldest premium payment or rollover is considered to be withdrawn/transferred first. If the amount withdrawn/transferred exceeds the Policy Value associated with the oldest premium, the Policy Value associated with the next oldest premium payment or rollover is considered to be withdrawn/transferred next, and so on until the Policy Value associated with the most recent premium payment or rollover is considered to be withdrawn/transferred (this is a "First-In, First-Out" or FIFO basis).
