Common use of Xxxxxxxxx Death Clause in Contracts

Xxxxxxxxx Death. When we have due proof that the Annuitant died before the Annuity Commencement Date, we will provide the death proceeds to the beneficiary. Interest upon the death proceeds paid will be computed daily at the rate of interest currently paid by us on proceeds left under the Guaranteed Payment Option 1, Interest Payments, from the date of death, in connection with the death claim of this contract to the date of payment and will be considered a part of the total sum paid. If no beneficiary is designated, the owner or owner's estate will become the beneficiary. a) Beneficiary is the deceased Xxxxxxxxx's surviving spouse. The beneficiary may elect to continue this contract as owner and Annuitant rather than receiving the death proceeds. If the contract is continued, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit over the Account Value will then be added to the Account Value. This is a one-time only Account Value adjustment applied at the time the contract is continued, and the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit will continue on as applicable. If the contract is continued, all current surrender charges will be waived. If this beneficiary elects to have the death proceeds paid, the death proceeds must be distributed: (1) by the end of 5 years after the date of the deceased Xxxxxxxxx's death, or (2) payments must begin no later than one year after the deceased Xxxxxxxxx's death and must be made for a period certain or for this beneficiary's lifetime, so long as any period certain does not exceed this beneficiary's life expectancy. In 1035 exchanges where there are joint Annuitants, the death proceeds will only be payable upon the death of the surviving Annuitant.
