Common use of TRANSFER OF ACCUMULATION VALUE Clause in Contracts

TRANSFER OF ACCUMULATION VALUE. Before the Maturity Date the Owner may, on request satisfactory to the Company, transfer amounts from one Division to another. For transfers among the Divisions, the number of Accumulation Units to be applied or deducted will be adjusted to reflect the respective value of the Accumulation Units in each of the Divisions on the date the transfer is effective. A Transfer Fee may be deducted from the amount transferred. The maximum amount of the Transfer Fee is shown on Page 4. The minimum amount that may be transferred is the lesser of $100 or the entire Accumulation Value of the Division from which the transfer is being made. In addition, certain of the Portfolios in which the Divisions invest may impose redemption fees. These fees are described in the Fund prospectuses, and will be deducted from the amount transferred. Any Portfolio redemption fees that you are charged are paid to and retained by the Portfolio, and not the Company. A transfer request is subject to limitation or modification if the Company determines that the transfer would be to the disadvantage of other contract owners with interests in the Divisions or if required by applicable laws or regulations. Neither the Company nor its agents shall be liable for any loss resulting from transfer requests that are rejected, modified or delayed as a result of such a determination. The limitation or modification may be applied to transfers to and/or from the Separate Account Divisions and could include but not be limited to: • limiting the number of transfers allowed in a Contract Year; • the requirement of a minimum time period between each transfer; • limiting the dollar amount that may be transferred between or among the Separate Account Divisions in any one day; • requiring that a transfer request be submitted in a particular form and/or by a specific process. The Company reserves the right to modify or eliminate any transfer request process (including without limitation transfer requests via the Internet, via facsimile, or by telephone) for some or all contract owners as the Company deems appropriate.
