Overloan Protection Agreement
This agreement is a part of the policy to which it is attached and is subject to all its terms and conditions. Terms not defined in this agreement have the meaning given to them in the policy to which this agreement is attached. To the extent any of the provisions contained in this agreement are contrary to, or inconsistent with, those of the policy, the provisions of this agreement will control. This agreement is effective as of the original policy date of the policy unless a different effective date is shown on the policy data pages.
What does this agreement provide?
This agreement provides that your policy will not terminate because of a policy loan even if the accumulation value is insufficient to cover policy charges. If all the conditions described in this agreement are satisfied, you may exercise this agreement and we will guarantee that your policy will not terminate.
What conditions must be met in order to exercise this agreement?
(1) | The death benefit qualification test on your policy must be the guideline premium test. |
(2) | Your policy must have the level death benefit option. If your policy does not have this death benefit option when you exercise the agreement, we will change your death benefit option to the level option. |
(3) | Your policy cannot be a modified endowment contract. |
(4) | The insured(s) must be at least 75 years of age and less than 99 years of age. |
(5) | Your policy must have been in force for at least 15 years. |
(6) | The face amount of your policy must equal the minimum amount allowable under the Code. If the face amount is not equal to that minimum as of the date you exercise this agreement, we will reduce your face amount to be equal to the minimum amount allowable under the Code. |
(7) | The policy loan including any unpaid policy loan interest cannot exceed 99.9% of the accumulation value after the charge for this agreement is assessed. |
(8) | You will be required to terminate all agreements attached to your policy, except for any agreement that provides an irrevocable settlement option. |
(9) | The cumulative sum of all partial surrenders on your policy must be greater than or equal to the sum of premiums paid. |
(10) | We are not waiving premiums or charges under a waiver agreement. |
How may you exercise this agreement?
If the above conditions are satisfied, you may exercise this agreement by sending us a written request prior to the end of the grace period.
If your policy is in the grace period, we will send you and any assignee of record, at the last known addresses, a written notice at least 31 days in advance of the end of the grace period notifying you of your right to exercise this agreement and the time frame for exercise. If you receive the notice less than 31 days before the end of the grace period, you will have 30 days after receipt of the written notice to exercise the agreement.
If the agreement is exercised, the policy will not terminate because of a policy loan, when the policy’s cash surrender value, or when applicable, the accumulation value less policy loan, is insufficient to cover the monthly policy charges. The policy will automatically become paid-up life insurance.

When you exercise this agreement, we will assess a one-time charge against your accumulation value. The charge will not exceed the amount described on the policy data pages. There is no charge for this agreement if it is not exercised.
Does this agreement provide any accumulation value?
