Joint & Last Survivor Flexible Premium Variable Life Insurance Policy
We agree to pay the Life Insurance Proceeds of this Policy upon the death of the
Last Surviving Insured, and to provide other benefits and rights in accordance
with the provisions of this Policy.
This is a joint and last survivor flexible premium variable life insurance
policy. You can, within limits:
o increase or decrease the Face Amount;
o pay Premium at any time and in any amount;
o change the Death Benefit Option;
o change the allocation of Net Premiums among Your investment options; and
o transfer amounts among Your investment options.
All of these rights and benefits are subject to the terms and conditions of this
Policy. All requests for Policy changes are subject to Our approval and may
require evidence of insurability.
The portion of Your Account Value that is in a Subaccount will vary up or down
depending on the unit value of such Subaccount, which in turn depends on the
investment performance of the corresponding portfolio of a designated investment
company. There are no minimum guarantees as to such portion of Your Account
Value.
The portion of Your Account Value that is in the Guaranteed Account will
accumulate, after deductions, at rates of interest We determine. Such rates will
not be less than an effective rate of 4% per year, compounded annually.
The amount of the Death Benefit may be level or variable as described in the
Death Benefit provision of THE BENEFITS WE PAY section on page 7 of this Policy.
Please Read This Policy With Care. This Policy is a legal contract between You
and Us. This is a non-participating policy. It does not participate in Our
profits or surplus. No dividends are payable.
Right To Examine And Cancel This Policy. You may examine this Policy and if for
any reason You are not satisfied with it You may cancel it by returning this
Policy with a Written Notice for cancellation to Our Administrative Office, or
to the agent who sold it, no later than 10 days after You receive it. If You do
this, We will refund the Premiums that were paid on this Policy.
NO BENEFIT IS PAYABLE UNDER THIS POLICY ON THE DEATH OF THE FIRST
INSURED TO DIE, EXCEPT AS MAY BE PROVIDED BY A RIDER.
HOWEVER, YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY US OF THE DEATH OF THE FIRST
INSURED TO DIE, AND YOU MUST PROVIDE AN AUTHORIZATION TO ALLOW
US TO OBTAIN AND DISCLOSE INFORMATION CONCERNING SUCH FIRST DEATH.

OWNER AND BENEFICIARY PROVISIONS
Owner. Unless otherwise stated in the application, or later changed, the
Insureds are joint Owners of this Policy. If there is more than one Owner, then
all Owners must agree to any change in this Policy.
The Owner(s) is(are) entitled to exercise all the rights of this Policy while
one or both Insureds are living. To exercise a right, there is no need for the
consent of anyone who has only a conditional or future ownership interest in
this Policy.
Unless otherwise provided, if a joint Owner dies, ownership remains with any
surviving joint Owner(s). Unless otherwise provided, when the Owner, or the last
surviving joint Owner dies, ownership passes to that person's estate.
Beneficiary. The Beneficiary is the person(s) who is(are) entitled to the Life
Insurance Proceeds of this Policy. The Beneficiary is as stated in the
application, unless later changed. One or more beneficiaries for the Life
Insurance Proceeds can be named in the application. If more than one beneficiary
is named, each can be classed as primary or contingent. If two or more persons
are named in a class, their shares in the benefit can be stated. The stated
shares in the Life Insurance Proceeds will be paid to any primary beneficiaries
who are alive upon the date of death of the Last Surviving Insured. If no
primary beneficiaries so survive, payment will be made to any surviving
contingent beneficiaries. Beneficiaries who survive in the same class will share
the Life Insurance Proceeds equally, unless You have made another arrangement
with Us.
If there is no designated Beneficiary living at the death of the Last Surviving
Insured, We will pay the Life Insurance Proceeds to the Owner, if living,
otherwise to the Owner's estate.
Changing The Owner Or Beneficiary. While either Insured is living, You may send
Us a Written Notice to change the Owner or Beneficiary. (You can get such a form
from Our agent or by writing to Us at Our Administrative Office.) The change
will take effect on the date You sign the notice, but it will not apply to any
payment We make or other action We take before We receive the notice. If You
change the Beneficiary, any previous arrangement You made as to a payment option
for benefits is canceled. You may choose a payment option for the new
Beneficiary as described in the HOW BENEFITS ARE PAID section.
Assignment. You may assign this Policy, if We agree. In any event, We will not
be bound by an assignment unless We have received it in writing at Our
Administrative Office. Your rights and those of any other person referred to in
this Policy will be subject to the assignment. We assume no responsibility for
the validity of an assignment.
THE BENEFITS WE PAY
Life Insurance Proceeds. We will pay the Life Insurance Proceeds of this Policy
to the Beneficiary when We receive at Our Administrative Office (1) proof
satisfactory to Us that the Last Surviving Insured has died while this Policy
was in force; and (2) all other requirements We deem necessary before such
payment may be made. The Life Insurance Proceeds includes the following amounts,
which We will determine as of the date of the Last Surviving Insured's death:
o the Death Benefit described below; plus
o any other benefits then due from riders to this Policy; minus
o any Outstanding Loan; minus
o any overdue monthly deductions from Your Account Value if the Last
Surviving Insured dies during a Grace Period.
We will add interest to the resulting amount for the period from the date of
death to the date of payment. We will compute the interest at a rate We
determine, but not less than the rate required by any applicable law. Payment of
the Life Insurance Proceeds may also be affected by other provisions of this
Policy. See the OTHER IMPORTANT PROVISIONS section, where We specify Our right
to contest this Policy, the suicide exclusion, and what happens if either
Insured's age or sex has been misstated on the application. Any additional
exclusions or limitations are listed in the POLICY INFORMATION section.
Death Benefit. You have chosen in the application one of the two Tax
Qualification Options available under the federal tax law; and one of the two
Death Benefit Options. These selections are shown in the POLICY INFORMATION
section. The Death Benefit Option may be changed by You, within limits; however
the Tax Qualification Option may not be changed. The Death Benefit amount will
be determined based on which options are in effect on the date of death of the
Last Surviving Insured.
Under Death Benefit Option I, the Level Death Benefit Option, the Death Benefit
is the greater of the Face Amount, or the Account Value on the Last Surviving
Insured's date of death multiplied by the Minimum Death Benefit Factor at the
time of that Insured's death (see Table Of Minimum Death Benefit Factors in the
POLICY INFORMATION section). Under this Option, the amount of the Death Benefit
is level, unless it is determined by such Death Benefit Factor.
Under Death Benefit Option II, the Variable Death Benefit Option, the Death
Benefit is the greater of the Face Amount plus the Account Value on the Last
Surviving Insured's date of death, or the Account Value on that Insured's date
of death multiplied by the Minimum Death Benefit Factor at the time of that
Insured's death (see Table Of Minimum Death Benefit Factors in the POLICY
INFORMATION section). Under this Option, the amount of the Death Benefit is
variable.
AUTOMATIC FACE AMOUNT INCREASE OPTION
Automatic Increase Option. An automatic increase in the Face Amount of this
Policy will be effective on specified Policy Anniversaries, as shown in the
Table Of Face Amounts in the POLICY INFORMATION section, subject to the
following conditions:
o You elected this option in the application for this Policy; and o this Policy
is issued under Death Benefit Option I; and o the Death Benefit Option has never
been changed to Death Benefit Option II; and o You have not refused any previous
scheduled automatic increase; and
o the Face Amount of this Policy has not been increased other than by such
scheduled automatic increases; and
o the Face Amount of this Policy has not been decreased as a result of Your
request for a decrease, or as a result of a partial withdrawal.
If You want to stop the scheduled automatic increases, We must be given Written
Notice at least 30 days before the effective date of the next increase. We will
then cancel the next increase and all subsequent scheduled automatic increases
and send You a revised Table Of Face Amounts.
CHANGING THE FACE AMOUNT OR THE DEATH BENEFIT OPTION
At any time after the first Policy Year while this Policy is in force, You may
change the Death Benefit Option or the Face Amount by Written Notice to Us at
Our Administrative Office. The Tax Qualification Option may not be changed. Any
requested change is subject to Our approval and the following:
1. You may ask Us to increase the Face Amount if You provide evidence
satisfactory to Us of the insurability of each surviving Insured. If the
Face Amount is increased, then the cost of insurance rate for the amount of
the increase will be based on the rate class of the each surviving Insured
on the date of the increase, and each surviving Insured's sex and Attained
Age. Any increase You ask for must be at least $10,000. If You increase the
Face Amount, an additional ten year surrender charge will apply to that
increase. We will also assess an additional monthly expense charge related
to the Face Amount increase beginning on the effective date of the
increase. We will not allow You to increase the Face Amount more than once
during any Policy Year, nor will We allow You to increase the Face Amount
after the older Insured, or the Last Surviving Insured, reaches Attained
Age 90. Any requested increase in Face Amount will result in a
recalculation of the Minimum Premium related to the No Lapse provision, and
will cancel any future Face Amount increases under the Automatic Increase
Option provision.
2. You may ask Us to decrease the Face Amount but not to less than the Minimum
Face Amount shown in the POLICY INFORMATION section. Any such decrease in
the Face Amount must be at least $5,000; however, during each of the second
through fifth Policy Years, the Face Amount may not be decreased by more
than 25% of the Initial Face Amount. If You decrease the Face Amount before
the end of the tenth Policy Year, or before the end of the tenth Policy
Year following an increase in the Face Amount, We will deduct from Your
Account Value a pro rata share of the applicable surrender charge.
Decreases will first be applied against the most recent increase in the
Face Amount. They will then be applied to prior increases in the Face
Amount in the reverse order in which such increases took place, and then to
the Initial Face Amount. Any requested decrease in Face Amount will cancel
any future Face Amount increases under the Automatic Increase Option
provision.
3. You can change Your Death Benefit Option. We may require that You submit
evidence, satisfactory to Us that each surviving Insured is insurable. If
You ask Us to change from Death Benefit Option I to Death Benefit Option
II, We will decrease the Face Amount by the amount in Your Account Value on
the date the change takes effect. However, We will not allow such change if
it would decrease the Face Amount below the Minimum Face Amount shown in
the POLICY INFORMATION section. If You ask Us to change from Death Benefit
Option II to Death Benefit Option I, We will increase the Face Amount by
the amount in Your Account Value on the date the change takes effect. Such
decreases and increases in the Face Amount are made so that the Death
Benefit remains the same on the date the change takes effect. However, if
Your Account Value multiplied by the applicable Minimum Death Benefit
Factor exceeds the Face Amount on the date the Death Benefit Option change
takes effect, there may be an increase in the Death Benefit. Any requested
change to Death Benefit Option II will cancel any future Face Amount
increases under the Automatic Increase Option provision.
4. Any change must be by Written Notice to Us at Our Administrative Office. We
may also require You to return this Policy to Us to make a change. A copy
of any additional application and the new POLICY INFORMATION section, that
We will issue when the change is made, will become a part of this Policy.
5. Any change will take effect at the beginning of the Policy Month that
coincides with or next follows the date We approve Your request.
6. We reserve the right to decline to make any change that We determine would
cause this Policy to fail to qualify as life insurance as defined in the
Code.
THE PREMIUMS YOU PAY
The Initial Premium shown in the POLICY INFORMATION section is due on or before
delivery of this Policy. No insurance will take effect before the Initial
Premium is paid. Other Premiums may be paid at Our Administrative Office at any
time while this Policy is in force. If requested, We will give You a receipt
signed by one of Our Officers.
We will send Premium notices to You for the Planned Periodic Premium which You
have selected and which is shown in the POLICY INFORMATION section. You may skip
Planned Periodic Premiums. However, this may adversely affect the duration of
life insurance coverage and Your Policy's values. Even if the Planned Periodic
Premium is paid as scheduled, it may not provide life insurance coverage
throughout the lifetime of the Last Surviving Insured.
Limits. Each Premium after the Initial Premium must be at least $25.00. We will
limit the amount of Premium paid to Us so that this Policy will continue to
qualify as a life insurance contract as defined in the Code. In addition, We may
require You to submit evidence, satisfactory to Us, that each surviving Insured
is insurable before We will accept any Premium payment which would increase the
Death Benefit to an extent greater than that Premium amount.
No Lapse. In general, this Policy will lapse on any Monthly Anniversary that the
Net Cash Surrender Value is not sufficient to cover the monthly deduction due.
However, this Policy will not lapse on any Monthly Anniversary during the No
Lapse Period shown in the POLICY INFORMATION section if the total Premium paid
to date, less any partial withdrawals, and less any Outstanding Loan, is at
least equal to the Minimum Premium shown in the POLICY INFORMATION section
multiplied by the number of months since the Policy Date. In order to comply
with the definition of life insurance under the Code, We may not be able to
accept the Minimum Premium following a requested decrease in the Face Amount. If
We can no longer accept the Minimum Premium following a requested decrease in
the Face Amount, the No Lapse feature will end. The No Lapse feature will not be
reinstated if this Policy has ended without value.
Grace Period. If this Policy lapses, We will, within 30 days, send a written
notice to You and any assignee on Our records, at the last known addresses,
stating that a Grace Period of 61 days has begun, starting with the date of
lapse. The notice will also state the amount of Premium which would increase the
Net Cash Surrender Value sufficiently to cover total monthly deductions for 3
months, if no interest or investment performance were credited to or charged
against the Account Value and no Policy changes were made. If We do not receive
the requested Premium amount before the end of the Grace Period, this Policy
will end without value and no Life Insurance Proceeds will be payable.
If We do receive the requested Premium amount before the end of the Grace
Period, but the Net Cash Surrender Value is still insufficient to cover total
monthly deductions, We will send a written notice that a new 61 day Grace Period
has begun and request additional Premium.
If the Last Surviving Insured dies during a Grace Period, We will pay the Life
Insurance Proceeds described in THE BENEFITS WE PAY section.
Reinstatement Of Your Policy. If this Policy has ended without value, You may
reinstate it while either Insured is alive provided You do all of the following:
o Send a Written Notice for reinstatement of this Policy within 3 years from
the end of the Grace Period.
o Provide Us satisfactory evidence of insurability for each Insured who was
alive at the end of the Grace Period.
o Pay a Premium sufficient to cover (i) total monthly deductions for 3
months, calculated from the effective date of reinstatement; and (ii) the
premium expense charge. We will determine the required Premium as if no
interest or investment performance were credited to or charged against Your
Account Value.
o Repay or reinstate any Outstanding Loan which existed on the date this
Policy ended.
The effective date of the reinstatement of this Policy will be the beginning of
the Policy Month which coincides with or next follows the date We approve Your
request. We will start to make monthly deductions again as of this date.
We will deduct the premium expense charge from the required Premium. The monthly
expense charges, the Account Value, any Outstanding Loan, and the surrender
charges applicable at the time of reinstatement will be those that were in
effect on the date this Policy lapsed.
YOUR ACCOUNT VALUE AND HOW IT WORKS
Premium. When We receive Your Premium, We subtract the premium expense charge
shown in the POLICY INFORMATION section. We put the balance (the Net Premium)
into Your Account Value as of the date We receive the Premium at Our
Administrative Office, and before any deductions from Your Account Value as of
the Policy Date, if it is later than the date of receipt. No Premium will be
applied to Your Account Value until the full Initial Premium, as shown on Your
application, is received at Our Administrative Office.
Monthly Deduction. On the Policy Date and each following Monthly Anniversary, We
make a deduction from Your Account Value to cover the monthly expense charge
shown in the POLICY INFORMATION section, and to provide life insurance coverage.
Such deduction for any Policy Month is the sum of the following amounts,
determined as of the beginning of that month:
o the monthly expense charge; plus
o the monthly cost of insurance charge; and plus
o the monthly cost of any benefits provided by riders to this Policy.
The monthly expense charge is comprised of an acquisition charge and an
administrative charge. The acquisition charge, which is assessed for the first
five Policy Years, is to compensate Us for the expenses related to the
acquisition and underwriting of Your Policy. Your Policy will also be assessed
an additional acquisition charge for the first five years following each
non-automatic Face Amount increase. The administrative charge, which is assessed
for all Policy Years, is to compensate Us for the administrative expenses
associated with the Policy and the Separate Account.
The monthly cost of insurance charge is the current monthly cost of insurance
rate per $1,000, multiplied by the net amount at risk at the beginning of the
Policy Month divided by $1,000. Any extra charge per $1,000 of Face Amount,
shown in the POLICY INFORMATION section for either Insured, is included in the
calculation of the current monthly cost of insurance rate per $1,000.
If the Death Benefit is equal to the Face Amount, or the Face Amount plus the
Account Value, then the net amount at risk is equal to the Death Benefit divided
by 1.0032737, minus the amount in Your Account Value at that time. However, if
the Death Benefit is equal to the Account Value of this Policy multiplied by a
factor from the Table Of Minimum Death Benefit Factors, then the net amount at
risk is equal the Death Benefit minus the amount in Your Account Value at that
time. The cost of insurance rate per $1,000 is based on the sex, Attained Age,
rate class, and smoker or non-smoker status of the Insureds.
We will determine cost of insurance rates from time to time. Any change in the
cost of insurance rates We use will be as described in the Changes In Policy
Cost Factors provision. Such rates will never be more than those shown in the
Table Of Guaranteed Maximum Cost Of Insurance Rates in the POLICY INFORMATION
section.
Other Deductions. We may also make additional deductions from Your Account Value
at the time of certain requested transactions.
o We deduct a surrender charge if, before the end of the tenth Policy Year,
You give up this Policy for its Net Cash Surrender Value, You decrease the
Face Amount, or if this Policy terminates without value at the end of a
Grace Period. A surrender charge will also apply to such transactions for
ten years immediately following a Face Amount increase, other than a
scheduled automatic increase.
o We may deduct a surrender charge if You make a partial withdrawal from this
Policy.
o We may deduct an administrative charge for each partial withdrawal.
o We may deduct an administrative charge for certain transfers.
Treatment Of Deductions. It is Our standard procedure to make all monthly
deductions from Your unloaned value in the Guaranteed Account and from Your
values in the Subaccounts based on the proportion that Your unloaned value in
the Guaranteed Account and Your values in the Subaccounts bear to the total
unloaned value in Your Account Value. You may by Written Notice to Our
Administrative Office request that all monthly deductions be made only from Your
unloaned value in the Guaranteed Account, or from specified Subaccounts. Such
request will be subject to Our approval. If there is not sufficient value to
cover a monthly deduction in the location(s) You have specified, then the
standard procedure would apply.
YOUR INVESTMENT OPTIONS
Allocations. This Policy provides investment options for the amount in Your
Account Value. Amounts put into Your Account Value are allocated to the
Subaccounts and to the unloaned portion of the Guaranteed Account at Your
direction. You specified Your Initial Premium allocation percentages in Your
application for this Policy, a copy of which is attached to this Policy. Unless
You change them, such allocation percentages will also apply to subsequent
Premiums. However, any Net Premium received prior to the Allocation Date will
initially be allocated to the money market Subaccount named in the POLICY
INFORMATION section. On the Allocation Date, any such amounts will then be
allocated in accordance with the directions contained in Your Policy
application.
Premium allocation percentages must be zero or a whole number from 5% to 100%.
The sum of the Premium allocation percentages must equal 100. You may change
such allocation percentages by request to Our Administrative Office, in a form
acceptable to Us. A change will take effect on the date We receive it at Our
Administrative Office except for changes received on or prior to the Allocation
Date which will take effect on the first business day following the Allocation
Date.
Transfers. At Your request to Our Administrative Office, in a form acceptable to
Us, We will transfer amounts from Your unloaned value in the Guaranteed Account
to one or more Subaccounts, or from Your value in any Subaccount to one or more
other Subaccounts or to the Guaranteed Account, subject to the limitations noted
below.
The minimum amount that We will transfer is the lesser of the minimum transfer
amount shown in the POLICY INFORMATION section, or the total amount You have in
that Subaccount, or the total unloaned value of the Guaranteed Account on that
date.
The maximum amount We will transfer from Your unloaned value in the Guaranteed
Account during any Policy Year is 25% of the value in that account on the most
recent Policy Anniversary reduced by all partial withdrawals and transfers You
made from that account during the current Policy Year.
You may make up to 12 transfers each Policy Year free of charge. For each
additional transfer, We reserve the right to make a transfer charge up to the
amount shown in the POLICY INFORMATION section. All transfers made on a single
day will be counted as just one transfer in determining whether a charge will
apply. Any transfer on the Allocation Date will not be counted as a transfer in
determining future charges. The transfer charge, if any, is deducted from the
total amount transferred prior to the balance being reallocated according to
Your request.
Transfers will take effect on the date We receive Your transfer request, subject
to the New York Stock Exchange being open for trading. We may, however, defer
transfers under the same conditions as described in the How, When And What We
May Defer provision.
YOUR ACCOUNT VALUE
The amount in Your Account Value at any time is equal to the sum of the amounts
You then have in the Subaccounts under this Policy, and in the Guaranteed
Account.
Value In The Subaccounts. The amount You have in a Subaccount under this Policy
at any time is equal to the number of units this Policy then has in that
Subaccount multiplied by the Subaccount's unit value at that time. A Policy
transaction occurs when units of a Subaccount are either purchased or redeemed.
Amounts allocated, transferred or added to a Subaccount are used to purchase
units of that Subaccount; units are redeemed when amounts are deducted, loaned,
transferred, withdrawn or surrendered.
The number of units this Policy has in a Subaccount at any time is equal to the
number of units purchased minus the number of units redeemed in that Subaccount
to that time. The number of units purchased or redeemed in a Policy transaction
is equal to the dollar amount of the Policy transaction divided by the
Subaccount's unit value on the date of the Policy transaction. Policy
transactions may be made on any day. The unit value that applies to a Policy
transaction made on a Valuation Date will be the unit value for that day. The
unit value that applies to a Policy transaction made on a day other than a
Valuation Date will be the unit value for the next Valuation Date.
We determine unit values for the Subaccounts at the end of each Valuation Date.
The unit value of a Subaccount on any Valuation Date is equal to the unit value
for that Subaccount on the immediately preceding Valuation Date multiplied by
the net investment factor for that Subaccount on that Valuation Date.
The net investment factor for a Subaccount on any Valuation Date is (a) divided
by (b), minus (c), where:
(a) is the net asset value of the shares in designated investment companies
that belong to the Subaccount at the close of business on such
Valuation Date before any Policy transactions are made on that day,
plus the amount of any dividend or capital gain distribution paid by
the investment companies on that day;
(b) is the value of the assets in that Subaccount at the close of business
on the immediately preceding Valuation Date after all transactions were
made for that day; and
(c) is a daily charge, for each day in the Valuation Period which includes
such Valuation Date, not exceeding .00248%, which is equivalent to a
charge of .90% annually, for mortality and expense risks.
The net asset value of an investment company's shares held in each Subaccount
will be the value reported to Us by that investment company.
YOUR ACCOUNT VALUE (Continued)
Value In The Guaranteed Account. The amount You have in the Guaranteed Account
at any time is equal to the amounts allocated and transferred to it, plus the
interest credited to it, minus amounts deducted, transferred, withdrawn or
surrendered from it.
We will credit the Guaranteed Account with interest rates We determine. Any
change in the interest rate We credit to the unloaned amount in the Guaranteed
Account will be as described in the Changes In Policy Cost Factors provision.
The loaned amount in the Guaranteed Account will be credited with an interest
rate of not less than the Policy Loan interest rate minus 2%. The interest rate
applied to either the loaned or unloaned amount in the Guaranteed Account will
not be less than 4% per year, compounded annually.
At the end of each Policy Month We will credit interest on unloaned amounts in
the Guaranteed Account as follows:
o on amounts that remain in the Guaranteed Account for the entire Policy
Month, from the beginning to the end of the Policy Month;
o on amounts allocated to the Guaranteed Account during a Policy Month that
are Net Premium payments, or Outstanding Loan payments, from the date We
receive them to the end of the Policy Month;
o on amounts transferred to the Guaranteed Account during a Policy Month,
from the date of the transfer to the end of the Policy Month;
o on amounts deducted or withdrawn from the Guaranteed Account during a
Policy Month, from the beginning of the Policy Month, or the date such
amount is allocated or transferred to the Guaranteed Account, if later, to
the date of the deduction or partial withdrawal.
THE CASH SURRENDER VALUE OF THIS POLICY
Cash Surrender Value. The Cash Surrender Value on any date is equal to the
amount in Your Account Value on that date minus any surrender charge.
Net Cash Surrender Value. The Net Cash Surrender Value is equal to the Cash
Surrender Value minus any Outstanding Loan. You may give up this Policy for its
Net Cash Surrender Value at any time while this Policy is in force. You may do
this by sending a Written Notice for it and this Policy to Our Administrative
Office. We will compute the Net Cash Surrender Value as of the date We receive
Your request for it and this Policy at Our Administrative Office. All life
insurance coverage under this Policy will end on such date.
THE CASH SURRENDER VALUE OF THIS POLICY (Continued)
Surrender Charges. If You give up this Policy for its Net Cash Surrender Value
or if it ends without value at the end of a Grace Period before the end of the
tenth Policy Year, We will subtract a surrender charge from Your Account Value.
A table of maximum surrender charges is shown in the POLICY INFORMATION section.
An increase in the Face Amount will result in an additional ten year surrender
charge applicable to the amount of the increase. The additional surrender charge
period will begin on the effective date of the increase.
If You request a decrease in the Face Amount before the end of the tenth Policy
Year, or within ten years immediately following a Face Amount increase, We will
also deduct a pro rata share of any applicable surrender charge from Your
Account Value. Decreases in Face Amount will first be applied against the most
recent increase in the Face Amount. They will then be applied to prior increases
in the Face Amount in the reverse order in which such increases took place, and
then to the Initial Face Amount.
The amount of any pro rata surrender charge is (a) divided by (b), and
multiplied by (c), where:
a) is the amount of the decrease in the Face Amount,
b) is the Face Amount immediately prior to the decrease, and
c) is the total surrender charge applicable to this Policy immediately prior
to the decrease.
If there is an increase or decrease in the surrender charge shown in the POLICY
INFORMATION section, We will send You a new table showing the revised surrender
charges. We have filed a detailed statement of the method of computing surrender
charges with the insurance supervisory official of the jurisdiction in which
this Policy is delivered.
Partial Withdrawal. At any time after the first Policy Year, You may ask for a
partial withdrawal by Written Notice to Our Administrative Office. Your request
will be subject to Our approval based on Our rules in effect when We receive
Your request, and to the partial withdrawal limits shown in the POLICY
INFORMATION section. A partial withdrawal will result in a decrease in the Cash
Surrender Value, in Your Account Value, and in Your Death Benefit. If Death
Benefit Option I is in effect, the partial withdrawal will also result in a
decrease in the Face Amount equal to the partial withdrawal amount. However, We
will not allow such partial withdrawal if it would decrease the Face Amount to
less than the Minimum Face Amount shown in the POLICY INFORMATION section. Any
decrease in Face Amount will be applied in reverse order to reduce any increases
in Face Amount, and then to reduce the Initial Face Amount.
The partial withdrawal amount deducted from the Account Value is equal to the
amount requested, plus any applicable administrative charge shown in the POLICY
INFORMATION section, and plus any applicable surrender charge. The surrender
charge for a partial withdrawal is equal to the amount of the partial
withdrawal, plus any administrative charge for the partial withdrawal, divided
by the Net Cash Surrender Value immediately prior to the partial withdrawal, and
then multiplied by the surrender charge which would apply to a full surrender at
that time.
You may tell Us how much of each partial withdrawal is to come from Your
unloaned value in the Guaranteed Account and from Your values in each of the
Subaccounts. The maximum amount that may be withdrawn from Your unloaned value
in the Guaranteed Account during any Policy Year is 25% of the value in that
account on the most recent Policy Anniversary reduced by all partial withdrawals
and transfers You made from that account during the current Policy Year. If You
do not specify, the partial withdrawal will be deducted from Your Account Value
based on the proportion that Your unloaned value in the Guaranteed Account and
Your values in each of the Subaccounts bear to the total unloaned value in Your
Account Value.
Such partial withdrawal and resulting decrease in the Death Benefit, in the Cash
Surrender Value and in Your Account Value will take effect on the date We
receive Your Written Notice for it at Our Administrative Office. We will
generally pay a partial withdrawal within seven days. We will send You the
applicable new page for the POLICY INFORMATION section if a partial withdrawal
results in a decrease in the Face Amount. It will become a part of this Policy.
We may require You to return this Policy to Our Administrative Office to make a
change.
HOW A LOAN CAN BE MADE
Policy Loans. You may request a Policy Loan by Written Notice to Our
Administrative Office. During the first Policy Year, You can obtain a Policy
Loan if the resulting Outstanding Loan does not exceed 50% of the Cash Surrender
Value on the date of the loan request. After the first Policy Year, You can
obtain a loan on this Policy up to the amount of the Loan Value. The initial
loan and any additional loan must be for at least the minimum loan amount shown
in the POLICY INFORMATION section.
The Account Value of this Policy is the only security for a loan. Any amount on
loan is maintained within the Guaranteed Account. We refer to this as the loaned
portion of the Guaranteed Account. When a Policy Loan is requested, You may tell
Us how much of the requested loan is to be transferred from Your unloaned value
in the Guaranteed Account and from Your value in each Subaccount. If You do not
tell Us, We will allocate the loan based on the proportion that Your unloaned
value in the Guaranteed Account and Your values in each of the Subaccounts bear
to the total unloaned value in Your Account Value. If some or all of the loan is
allocated to a Subaccount, We will redeem units of that Subaccount sufficient in
value to cover such amount and transfer that amount to the loaned portion of the
Guaranteed Account. If some or all of the loan is allocated to the Guaranteed
Account, We will transfer that amount from the unloaned value in the Guaranteed
Account to the loaned portion of the Guaranteed Account. Such transfers will be
made as of the date We receive Your request. We do not make a charge for these
transfers and they are not counted toward any future transfer charges.
Loan Value. After the first Policy Year, the Loan Value is the Net Cash
Surrender Value on the date of the request, less interest on the amount of the
loan to the end of the Policy Year, and less the amount We calculate as the
value of the remaining monthly deductions to the end of the Policy Year. The
amount of the loan may not be more than the Loan Value. If You request an
increase to an existing loan, the amount requested will be added to the
Outstanding Loan.
Loan Interest. Interest on a loan accrues daily at an interest rate not greater
than the Policy Loan interest rate shown in POLICY INFORMATION section. Loan
interest is due on each Policy Anniversary. If the interest is not paid when
due, it will be added to the Policy Loan and will bear interest at the loan
interest rate. The unpaid interest will be allocated based on the proportion
that Your unloaned value in the Guaranteed Account and Your values in each of
the Subaccounts bear to the total unloaned value in Your Account Value.
Loan Repayment. You may repay all or part of an Outstanding Loan at any time
while this Policy is in force. However, since We normally treat all payments as
a payment of Premium, if You wish all or any portion of a payment to be applied
as an Outstanding Loan payment, You must include a Written Notice to this
effect. An Outstanding Loan payment will be allocated on the basis of the
Premium allocation percentages then in effect, and will reduce the loaned
portion of the Guaranteed Account.
Failure to repay an Outstanding Loan will not cause this Policy to lapse unless,
on a Monthly Anniversary, the Net Cash Surrender Value is less than the total
monthly deduction then due, and the No Lapse feature is not in effect. In that
case, this Policy will lapse and the Grace Period provision will apply.
A Policy Loan will have a permanent effect on Your Benefits under this Policy
even if it is repaid. Depending on the investment results of the Subaccounts and
the interest rates credited to the Guaranteed Account while a Policy Loan is
outstanding, such effect could be favorable or unfavorable.
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
The Separate Account is named in the DEFINITIONS section. We established the
Separate Account and Subaccounts pursuant to the Delaware Insurance Code and the
rules promulgated thereunder. We own the assets in the Separate Account and in
each Subaccount. The Separate Account and each Subaccount, however, are separate
from Our general account and from any other separate account and subaccount We
may maintain or establish at any time. Income, and realized and unrealized gains
and losses from assets allocated to each Subaccount of the Separate Account are
credited to or charged against such Subaccount without regard to other income,
gains or losses of any of Our other business. Assets equal to the reserves and
other liabilities of a Subaccount and of the Separate Account will not be
charged with liabilities from any other business We conduct. In the event the
assets of any Subaccount are in excess of its required reserves and other
liabilities, We may transfer such excess to another separate account or to Our
general account.
Subaccounts. Our Separate Account consists of Subaccounts. Each Subaccount
invests its assets in shares of a designated investment company or companies.
The Subaccounts that You chose for the allocation of Your Initial Premium are
shown on the application for this Policy, a copy of which is attached to this
Policy. We may from time to time make other Subaccounts available to You. We
will provide You with written notice of all material details including
investment objectives and all charges.
We have reserved certain rights regarding the Separate Account. We will exercise
these rights only in compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements. We
have the right to:
o Change, add or delete designated investment companies.
o Add or remove Subaccounts.
o Withdraw assets of the class of policies to which this Policy belongs from
a Subaccount and put them into another Subaccount.
o Combine any two or more Subaccounts.
o Register other separate accounts, or deregister the Separate Account with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
o Run the Separate Account under the direction of a committee, and discharge
such committee at any time.
o Restrict or eliminate any voting rights of Policy Owners, or other persons
who have voting rights as to the Separate Account.
o Operate the Separate Account or one or more of the Subaccounts by making
direct investments, or in any other form. If We do so, We may invest the
assets of the Separate Account or one or more of the Subaccounts in any
investments that are legal, as determined by Our own or outside counsel.
o We will not change any investment policy of a Subaccount or Our Separate
Account unless approved by the Commissioner of Insurance of the State of
Delaware or deemed approved in accordance with such law or regulation. If
so required, the process for getting such approval is on file with the
insurance supervisory official of the jurisdiction in which this Policy is
delivered.
If any of these changes result in a material change in the underlying
investments of a Subaccount, We will notify You of such change, as required by
law. If You have value in that Subaccount, You may send a Written Notice to
transfer it (without charge) from that Subaccount to another Subaccount or to
the Guaranteed Account, and You may then change Your Premium allocation
percentages.
OUR ANNUAL REPORT TO YOU
For each Policy Year We will send You a report for this Policy that shows the
current Death Benefit, the value You have in the Guaranteed Account and the
value You have in each Subaccount of Our Separate Account, the Cash Surrender
Value and any Outstanding Loan with the current loan interest rate. It will also
show the Premiums paid and any other information as may be required by the
insurance supervisory official of the jurisdiction in which this Policy is
delivered.
HOW BENEFITS ARE PAID
The Life Insurance Proceeds, or the payment amount of any partial withdrawal or
the full surrender of Your Account Value will be paid immediately in one sum.
Or, You can choose another form of payment for all or part of such amount. If
You send Us a Written Notice, We will inform You of all other forms of payment
including annuities, with or without life contingencies. Interest on any other
form of payment will be at an annual rate of interest that We decide, but not
less than the rate required by the law of the state in which this Policy is
delivered. If You do not arrange for a specific choice before the Last Surviving
Insured dies, the Beneficiary will have this right when the Last Surviving
Insured dies. If You do make an arrangement, however, the Beneficiary cannot
change it after the Last Surviving Insured dies.
OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Your Contract With Us. This Policy is issued in consideration of the initial
application and the payment of the Initial Premium shown in the POLICY
INFORMATION section.
This Policy, and the attached copy of the initial application and all subsequent
applications to change this Policy, any Riders or Endorsements added to this
Policy, and all additional POLICY INFORMATION sections added to this Policy,
make up the entire contract. The rights conferred by this Policy are in addition
to those provided by applicable Federal and State laws and regulations.
Only Our President or one of Our Vice-Presidents can modify this contract or
waive any of Our rights or requirements under it. The person making these
changes must put them in writing and sign them.
Policy Changes - Applicable Tax Law. For You and the Beneficiary to receive the
tax treatment accorded to life insurance under Federal law, this Policy must
qualify initially and continue to qualify as a life insurance contract under the
Code, or any successor law or regulation. Therefore, in Our best effort to
assure this qualification for You, We have reserved earlier in this Policy the
right to decline to accept Premium, in whole or in part, to decline to change
the Death Benefit Option, to decline to change the Face Amount, or to decline to
make partial withdrawals that would cause this Policy to fail to qualify as life
insurance as defined in the Code. Further, We reserve the right to make changes
in this Policy or its riders (for example, in the Table Of Minimum Death Benefit
Factors) or to require additional Premium or to make distributions from this
Policy to the extent We deem it necessary to continue to qualify this Policy as
life insurance. Any such changes will apply uniformly to all policies that are
affected. You will be given advance written notice of such changes.
Changes In Policy Cost Factors. Changes in policy cost factors (interest rates
We credit, cost of insurance rates and expense charges) will be by class and
based upon changes in future expectations for such elements as: investment
earnings, mortality, persistency, expenses and taxes. Any change in policy cost
factors will be determined in accordance with procedures and standards on file,
if required, with the insurance supervisory official of the jurisdiction in
which this Policy is delivered.
When This Policy Is Incontestable. We have the right to contest the validity of
this Policy based on material misstatements made in the initial application for
this Policy. We also have the right to contest the validity of any policy change
or reinstatement based on material misstatements made in any application for
such change or reinstatement. However, We will not contest the validity of this
Policy after it has been in effect during the lifetime of both Insureds for two
years from the Issue Date shown in the POLICY INFORMATION section. We will not
contest any policy change that requires evidence of insurability, or any
reinstatement of this Policy, after the change or reinstatement has been in
effect for two years during the lifetime of both Insureds.
No statement will be used to contest a claim unless such statement is contained
in an application.
All statements made in an application are representations and not warranties.
See any additional benefit riders for modifications of this provision that apply
to them.
OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION (Continued)
What If Age Or Sex Has Been Misstated? If either Insured's age or sex has been
misstated on any application, the Death Benefit and any benefits provided by
riders to this Policy will be those which would be purchased by the most recent
monthly deduction for the cost of insurance, and the cost of any benefits
provided by riders, at the correct Age and sex for each Insured.
How The Suicide Exclusion Affects Benefits. If either Insured commits suicide
(while sane or insane) within two years after the Issue Date shown in the POLICY
INFORMATION section, this Policy will end on the date of such death, and Our
liability will be limited to the payment of a single sum. This sum will be equal
to the Premiums paid, minus any Outstanding Loan, and minus any partial
withdrawal, and minus the cost of any riders attached to this Policy. If either
Insured commits suicide (while sane or insane) more than two years after the
Issue Date, but within two years after the effective date of a change that You
asked for that increases the Face Amount (other than a scheduled automatic
increase), the insurance provided by such increase in Face Amount will end on
the date of death, and Our liability as to the increase in Face Amount will be
limited to the payment of a single sum equal to the monthly cost of insurance
charges made for such increase plus the expense charge deducted for such
increase.
How We Measure Policy Periods And Anniversaries. We measure Policy Years, Policy
Months, and Policy Anniversaries from the Policy Date. Each Policy Month begins
on the same day as the Policy Date for each succeeding month, except that, for
any month not having such a day, it is the last day of that month.
How, When And What We May Defer. We may not be able to obtain the value of the
assets of the Subaccounts if: (1) the New York Stock Exchange is closed; or (2)
the Securities and Exchange Commission requires trading to be restricted or
declares an emergency. During such times, as to amounts allocated to the
Subaccounts, We may defer:
o determination and payment of a surrender or any partial withdrawals;
o determination and payment of any Death Benefit in excess of the Face
Amount;
o payments of loans; o determination of the unit values of the Subaccounts;
and
o any requested transfer or the transfer on the Allocation Date.
As to amounts allocated to the Guaranteed Account, We may defer payment of any
partial withdrawal, surrender, or Policy Loan for up to six months after We
receive a request for it. We will allow interest, at a rate of at least 4% a
year, on any Net Cash Surrender Value payment derived from the Guaranteed
Account that We defer for 30 days or more.
We will not defer a Policy Loan if it is to be used to pay premiums on policies
with Us.
The Basis We Use For Computation. We provide Cash Surrender Values that are at
least equal to those required by law in the jurisdiction in which this Policy is
delivered. If required to do so, We have filed with the insurance supervisory
official of that jurisdiction a detailed statement of Our method of computing
such values. We compute reserves under this Policy by the Commissioners' Reserve
Valuation Method.
We base minimum Cash Surrender Values and reserves on the Commissioners' 1980
Standard Ordinary Male or Female, Smoker or Non-Smoker, Mortality Tables, Age
Nearest Birthday. We also use these tables as the basis for determining maximum
cost of insurance rates, taking account of sex, Attained Age, rate class and
smoker or non-smoker status of each Insured. We use an effective annual interest
rate of 4% to determine minimum Cash Surrender Values.
Policy Changes. You may add additional benefit riders or make other changes,
subject to Our rules at the time of change.
OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION (Continued)
Policy Split Option. You may elect to surrender this Policy in exchange for
separate individual permanent life insurance policies on the life of each
Insured if: (1) the Insured's were married on the Policy Date and a final
annulment or divorce decree dissolving the Insureds' marriage has been issued,
or (2) if a change to the Federal Estate Tax Law has occurred which results in
either:
o the repeal of the unlimited marital deduction provided by the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; or
o a change to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which reduces
the maximum Federal Estate Tax rate to 25% or less;
To elect this policy split option, We must receive Your Written Notice not
earlier than 180 days, or later than 360 days, after the date a decree of
annulment or divorce becomes final, including a copy of the final decree, or
within 180 days of the date of a change in the Federal Estate Tax Law. We will
require evidence satisfactory to Us of the insurability of both Insureds and We
will also require evidence satisfactory to Us that the owner of each new policy
has an insurable interest in the Insured on the date of the exchange. We will
also require that any Outstanding Loan be repaid on the date of the exchange.
The date of the exchange will be the Policy Anniversary on or next following Our
receipt of Your Written Notice of election, accompanied by the initial premium
due on each of the new policies and any fee We charge to process the exchange.
The fee to process the exchange will not exceed $500.00.
Exchanged Policies. The new policies resulting from the exercise of this option
will have these features:
o The new policies will be subject to any assignment against this Policy.
o Policy years and anniversaries for the new policies will be measured from
the date from which policy years and anniversaries for this Policy are
measured.
o The new policies will be life insurance policies that We are offering for
this purpose as of the date of exchange and which use the same Death
Benefit Qualification Method as that used for this Policy.
o The risk classification for each Insured under the new policies will be
that risk classification for each Insured determined at the time of the
exchange.
o The face amount of each new policy may not exceed one half of the face
amount of this Policy.
o No more than one half of the cash value of this Policy will be transferred
to each new policy.
o If the Insured's are Joint Owners of this Policy on the date of the
exchange, each Insured will be the Owner of the new policy on his/her life;
otherwise the Owner(s) of this Policy will be the Owner(s) of each new
policy subject to the insurable interest requirements noted above.
o The effective date of the new policies will be the Policy Date of this
Policy.
o If the reserve of this Policy exceeds the sum of the reserves of the new
policies, and the cash value of this Policy exceeds the sum of the cash
values of the new policies, We will pay You whichever excess is smaller.
o If the sum of the reserves of the new policies exceeds the reserve of this
Policy, or the sum of the cash values of the new policies exceeds the cash
value of this Policy, You must pay Us whichever excess is greater.
o Riders may be attached to the new policies only with Our consent and will
be based on the age of each Insured at the time of issue of this Policy as
well as the number of years this Policy has been in force.
OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION (Continued)
Right To Exchange. While this Policy is in force, and subject to the time limits
noted below, You may, by Written Notice to Us, request to exchange the original
life insurance coverage provided under this Policy for fixed benefit life
insurance coverage on the lives of the Insureds, without evidence of
insurability. This exchange may be made:
o within 24 months after the Issue Date; or
o within 24 months after an increase in the Face Amount of this Policy, other
than a scheduled automatic increase, and other than an increase due to a
Death Benefit Option change; or
o within 60 days of the effective date of a material change in the investment
policy of a Subaccount, or within 60 days of the notification of such
change, if later. In the event of such a change, We will notify You and
give You information on the options available.
When an exchange is requested, We accomplish it by transferring all the amounts
in the Subaccounts under this Policy to the Guaranteed Account. There is no
charge for this transfer. Once this Right To Exchange is exercised, the entire
amount of Your Account Value must be left in the Guaranteed Account for the
remaining life of this Policy. The Face Amount in effect at the time of the
exchange will remain unchanged. The Owner and Beneficiary will remain the same
as were recorded immediately before the exchange. The Policy Date, Issue Date
and Age of each surviving Insured will remain unchanged.
