Variable Annuity - An Investment For Your Future
As an investor in the UNUM/America Variable Annuity I have read the prospectus
for the Variable Annuity. Also, I have read the fund prospectus that supports
any Variable Account that I selected. I understand that the funds supporting the
UNUM/America's Variable Annuity are not public funds and are only available
through insurance company contracts.
I understand the fund "Investment Objectives and Policies" which are stated in
the fund prospectus. Generally, the greater an investment's possible reward over
time, the greater its level of short-term price volatility or risk. Thus, If my
retirement date is approaching or if I expect to request a withdrawal soon, I
may wish to select investments that are less risky.
My investment goals may change as I near retirement or if I have a lifestyle
change. On a regular basis I should review my investment selections in the
UNUM/America Variable Annuity. As part of this review, I should read current
fund prospectuses and financial reports. I understand I may contact UNUM/America
anytime to receive up-to-date information about my UNUM/America Variable
Annuity.
Restriction of Withdrawals
I understand that withdrawals are restricted to the requirements of Section
403(b) of the Internal Revenue Code which are described in the current VA-1
Separate Account prospectus. Withdrawals must also be in accordance with any
restrictions set forth in the TSA Plan sponsored by my employer.
Pending Allocation Account
I understand that if my contributions are received at UNUM/America without the
complete and accurate information needed to allocate my contributions they will
be allocated to the Pending Allocation Account. Once the information is
received, UNUM/America will allocate my contribution as I have indicated on the
form. After the third monthly notice, if UNUM/America has not received this
information, the account value will be returned to my contractholder.
Transfer Assets
I understand that if I transfer any assets to UNUM/America without an
accompanying Transfer Form indicating my investment allocation split,
UNUM/America will deposit these transfer assets in accordance with my most
recent investment elections on file.
