ARTICLE I
BASIS OF REINSURANCE
Reinsurance under this Agreement must be life insurance as stated in Schedule A.
You must automatically reinsure the life insurance for the plans as stated in
Schedule A and any additional benefits listed in Schedule B.
1. REQUIREMENTS FOR AUTOMATIC REINSURANCE:
A. The individual risk must be a citizen or a permanent resident of the
United States.
B. The individual risk must be underwritten by you according to your
standard underwriting practices and guidelines.
C. Any risk offered on a facultative basis by you to us or any other
company will not qualify for automatic reinsurance.
D. The maximum issue age on any risk will be age 85.
E. The mortality rating on each individual risk must not exceed Table 16,
Table P, 500% or its equivalent on a flat extra premium basis, i.e.
$40.00/1000. For policies issued at ages 80-85 (based on the age of
healthiest life), the maximum table rating accepted on an automatic
basis is table 4 or 200% of standard, i.e. $10.00/1000.
F. The maximum amount of insurance issued and applied for in all
companies on each risk must not exceed the jumbo limits as stated in
Schedule A.
Article I Continues...
1
G. If because of previous retention on other policies, retaining
$2,000,000 of the risk on this policy will exceed your retention
limit, then you may retain less than $2,000,000 of the risk on this
policy.
H. The maximum amounts of insurance to be reinsured on a life must not
exceed the automatic binding limits as stated in Schedule A.
I. Once facultative reinsurance has been utilized on a case, any
subsequent business on that case must be submitted for facultative
review, unless both of the following conditions hold:
1. Prior facultative submissions are at least 3 years old AND,
2. Prior condition(s) on policies in item #1 that substantiated the
need for facultative reinsurance no longer exist(s).
2. REQUIREMENTS FOR FACULTATIVE REINSURANCE:
A. Plan of Insurance Listed in Schedule A:
(1) If the Requirements for Automatic Reinsurance are met but you
prefer to apply for facultative reinsurance, then you must submit
to us all the papers relating to the insurability of the
individual risk for facultative reinsurance.
(2) If Requirements for Automatic Reinsurance are not met, then you
must submit to us all the papers relating to the insurability of
the individual risk for facultative reinsurance.
3. A. An application for facultative reinsurance may include life insurance
with or without either disability waiver of premium or accidental
death or both. Only accidental death reinsurance may be submitted
without an application for life reinsurance.
B. Copies of all the papers relating to the insurability of the
individual risk must be sent to us for facultative reinsurance. After
we have examined the papers sent, we will promptly notify you of our
final underwriting offer or our underwriting offer subject to
additional requirements. Our final underwriting offer on the
individual risk will automatically terminate when one of the following
situations occurs:
(1) The date we receive notice from you of the withdrawal of your
application, or
(2) 120 days after we made our offer or
(3) The date specified in our approval to extend our offer.
2
ARTICLE II
LIABILITY
1. Our liability for automatic reinsurance will begin simultaneously with your
liability.
2. Our liability for facultative reinsurance on the individual risk will begin
simultaneously with your liability once we have accepted in writing the
application for facultative reinsurance.
3. Our liability for reinsurance on the individual risk will terminate:
A. When your liability terminates or
B. Subject to the conditions listed in Article VIII.
4. The initial and subsequent reinsurance premiums must be received by us on a
timely basis for us to maintain our liability of each individual risk.
5. Whenever you issue a Conditional Receipt and the applicant dies before a
policy is approved as applied for and you are held liable under Conditional
Receipt, then the underwriting judgement and classification of both you and
the reinsurer will be set aside except as provided under facultative cases
described in 5b, and the risk will be considered standard for purposes of
determining your retention.
A. If the policy applied for would be included in automatic coverage, you
will retain your full standard retention either under excess or
first-dollar arrangements accordingly and may bind the reinsurer for
their share of any excess over that retention.
B. If you send a conditional receipt risk facultatively and the applicant
dies before an offer or denial is made by the reinsurer(s), then you
will wait to inform the reinsurer(s) of the death until the responses
have been received and the reinsured risk, if still qualifying for
conditional receipt coverage, shall be divided equally between those
reinsurers who assigned it the lowest mortality classification. See 6a
below for the limits of reinsurer liability.
6. Our liability under Section 5. above will be limited to an amount equal to
the lesser of the following:
A. The amount of your liability which is in excess of your retention
limit for the risk involved, or
B. 1/6th of $1,000,000.
7. You will submit a copy of your conditional receipt to us and will promptly
notify us of any changes.

ARTICLE III
NOTIFICATION OF REINSURANCE
1. You will inform us of any reinsurance by submitting a monthly accounting
statement as described in Article VI.
ARTICLE IV
PLANS OF REINSURANCE
1. Life reinsurance will be on the basis as stated in Schedule B.
2. When requested, you must furnish us with a copy of each policy, rider, rate
book and cash value table which applies to the life insurance reinsured.
ARTICLE V
REINSURANCE PREMIUMS
1. Life Reinsurance Premiums.
A. Life Reinsurance Premiums Paid on a Yearly Renewable Term Basis.
The life reinsurance premium on the net amount at risk will be
determined from Exhibit II.
B. Deficiency Reserves of the Yearly Renewable Term Premiums.
We anticipate that the premium rates in Exhibit II will be continued
indefinitely for all of the life reinsurance to which such rates will
apply.
However, because of technical questions in some states regarding
deficiency reserves, if any one or more of such premium rates for any
policy year or years after the first will be less than the net premium
rate or rates based on the 1980 CSO Table for the applicable mortality
rating with interest at the rate specified in the Standard Valuation
Law, then, in that event, only the latter rate will be guaranteed by
us.
4
ARTICLE VI
PREMIUM ACCOUNTING
1. Payment of Reinsurance Premiums.
A. The reinsurance premiums will be paid to us on the basis stated in
Exhibit II.
B. Within twenty-five days after the close of each month, you will send
us a copy of a statement listing first year and renewal reinsurance
premiums less refunds and allowances (dividends and cash values, if
applicable) and other data mutually agreed upon by both parties.
C. If the net reinsurance premium balance is payable to us, you must
include this payment with your statement. If the net reinsurance
premium balance is not received by us or a statement is not prepared
and sent to us within twenty-five days after the close of the month,
the reinsurance premiums for all of the reinsurance risks listed on
the statement will be delinquent.
D. If the net reinsurance premium balance is payable to you, we must
remit our payment to you within thirty days after receiving your
statement.
2. Termination Because of Non-Payment of Premium.
When reinsurance premiums are delinquent, we have the right to terminate
the reinsurance risks on the statement by giving you thirty days' written
notice. As of the close of this thirty-day period, all of our liability
will terminate for:
A. The risks described in the preceding sentence and
B. The risks where the reinsurance premiums became delinquent during the
thirty-day period.
Regardless of these terminations, you will continue to be liable to us for
all unpaid reinsurance premiums earned by us.
3. Reinstatement of a Delinquent Statement.
You may reinstate the terminated risks within sixty days after the
effective date of termination by paying the unpaid reinsurance premiums for
the risks in force prior to the termination. However, we will not be liable
for any claim incurred between the date of termination and reinstatement.
The effective date of reinstatement will be the day we receive the required
back premiums.
4. Currency.
The reinsurance premiums and benefits payable under this Agreement will be
payable in the lawful money of the United States.
5. Within sixty days after the close of the calendar year, you will send us an
inforce listing of all policies reinsured under this Agreement.

ARTICLE VII
OVERSIGHTS
1. If there is an unintentional oversight or misunderstanding in the
administration of this Agreement by either company, it can be corrected
provided the correction takes place promptly after the time the oversight
or misunderstanding is first discovered. Both companies will be restored to
the position they would have occupied had the oversight or misunderstanding
not occurred.
ARTICLE VIII
REDUCTIONS, TERMINATIONS AND CHANGES
1. If there is a contractual or non-contractual replacement or change in the
insurance reinsured under this Agreement where full underwriting evidence
according to your regular underwriting rules is not required, the insurance
will continue to be reinsured with us under most recent relevant agreement.
2. If the insurance reinsured under this Agreement increases and
A. The increase is subject to new underwriting evidence, the provisions
of Article I shall apply to the increase in reinsurance.
B. The increase is not subject to new underwriting evidence, we will
accept automatically the increase in reinsurance but not to exceed our
automatic binding limit.
3. If the insurance reinsured under this Agreement is increased or reduced,
the reinsurance for the individual risk involved will be increased or
reduced according to the current retention schedule on the effective date
of increase or reduction.
If an individual life is shared by more than one reinsurer, our share of
the increase or decrease will be the same percentage as our initial
reinsurance on the individual risk.
4. If any portion of the total insurance retained by you on an individual life
reduces or terminates, any reinsurance under this Agreement based on the
same life will also be reduced or terminated. You will reduce your
reinsurance by applying the retention limits which were in effect at the
time the policy was issued. You will not be required to retain an amount in
excess of your regular retention limit for the age, mortality rating and
risk classification at the time of issue for any policy on which
reinsurance is being reduced.
Article VIII Continues..
6
You must first reduce the reinsurance of the insurance which has the same
mortality rating as the terminated insurance. If further reduction is
required, the reinsurance to be terminated or reduced will be determined by
chronological order in which the reinsurance was first reinsured.
5. If the insurance for a risk is shared by more than one reinsurer, our
percentage of the increased or reduced reinsurance will be the same as our
initial percentage of reinsurance of the individual risk.
6. If insurance reinsured under this Agreement is terminated, the reinsurance
for the individual risk involved will be terminated on the effective date
of termination.
7. On facultative reinsurance, if you wish to reduce the mortality rating,
this reduction will be subject to the facultative provisions of this
Agreement.
8. If at the time of a contractual or non-contractual change, you elect not to
continue to reinsure the risk with us, you must pay us an early recapture
charge as negotiated with us.
9. We will refund to you all unearned reinsurance premiums not including
policy fees, less applicable allowances, arising from reductions,
terminations and changes as described in this Article.
10. Changes as a result of extended term or reduced paid-up will be handled
like reductions.
ARTICLE IX
INCREASE IN RETENTION
1. If you should increase the retention limits as listed in Exhibit I, prompt
written notice of the increase must be given to us.
2. You will have the option of recapturing the reinsurance under this
Agreement when your retention limit increases. You may exercise your option
to recapture by giving written notice to us within ninety days after the
effective date of the increase.
3. If you exercise your option to recapture, then
A. You must reduce the reinsurance on each individual life on which you
retained your maximum retention limit for the age and mortality rating
that was in effect at the time the reinsurance was ceded to us.
Article IX Continues...
7
B. No recapture will be made to reinsurance on an individual life if (a)
you retained a special retention limit less than your maximum
retention limit for the age and mortality rating in effect at the time
the reinsurance was ceded to us, or if (b) you did not retain
insurance on the life.
C. You must increase your total amount of insurance on the individual
life up to your new retention limit by reducing the reinsurance. If an
individual life is shared by more than one reinsurer, our percentage
of the reduced reinsurance will be the same percentage as our initial
reinsurance on the individual risk.
D. The reduction of reinsurance will become effective on the later of the
following dates:
(1) The policy anniversary date immediately following the effective
date of your increase in retention limits.
(2) The number of years stated in Schedule A starting with the
'policy date' shown on the monthly accounting statement.

products. These products are not eligible for recapture. as stated in

all back reinsurance premiums in the same manner as you received insurance
premiums under your policy.

EXPENSES
1. You must pay the expense of all medical examinations, inspection fees and
other charges in connection with the issuance of the insurance.

ARTICLE XII
CLAIMS

will be the same as your liability for such benefits. All reinsurance claim
settlements will be subject to the terms and conditions of the particular
contract under which you are liable.
2. When you are advised of a claim, you must promptly notify us.
3. If a claim is made under insurance reinsured under this Agreement, we will
abide by the issue as it is settled by you. When you request payment of the
reinsurance proceeds, you must deliver a copy of the proof of death and the
claimant's statement to us.
4. Payment of reinsurance proceeds will be made in a single sum regardless of
your mode of settlement.
5. A. You must promptly notify us of your intent to contest insurance
reinsured under this Agreement or to assert defenses to a claim for
such insurance. If your contest of such insurance results in the
reduction of your liability, we will share in this reduction. Our
percentage of the reduction will be our net amount of risk on the
individual life as it relates to your total net amount at risk on the
date of the death of the insured.
B. If we should decline to participate in the contest or assertion of
defenses, we will then release all of our liability by paying you the
full amount of reinsurance and not sharing in any subsequent reduction
in liability.
6. If the amount of insurance provided by the policy or policies reinsured
under this Agreement is increased or reduced because of a misstatement of
age or sex established after the death of the insured, we will share with
you in this increase or reduction. Our share of this increase or reduction
will be the percentage that our net liability relates to your total net
liability and that of other reinsurers, immediately prior to this increase
or reduction. In the case of reinsurance on the yearly renewable term
basis, our reinsurance will be calculated from the inception date of the
policy on the adjusted amounts using the premiums and reserves applicable
to the correct age or sex. Any adjustment in reinsurance premiums will be
made without interest.
7. You must pay the routine expenses incurred in connection with settling
claims. These expenses may include compensation of agents and employees and
the cost of routine investigations.

not routine are those directly incurred in connection with the contest or
the possibility of a contest of insurance or the assertion of defenses.
These expenses will be shared in proportion to the net sum at risk for both
of us. However, if we have released our liability under Section 6. of this
Article, we will not share in any expenses incurred after our date of
release.
9. In no event will we have any liability for any extra-contractual damages
which are rendered against you as a result of acts, omissions or course of
conduct committed by you in connection with the insurance reinsured under
this Agreement, unless we have been made aware of the demand for
extra-contractual damages and elect to participate in the litigation.
ARTICLE XIII
INSPECTION OF RECORDS
1. We will have the right, at any reasonable time, to inspect your books and
documents which relate to your reinsurance under this Agreement.
ARTICLE XIV

immediately upon demand directly to your liquidator (receiver or statutory
successor), without decrease.
2. If you become insolvent, the liquidator will give us written notice of a
pending claim against you for insurance reinsured under this Agreement
within a reasonable time after the claim is filed in the insolvency
proceeding. During the insolvency proceedings where the claim is to be
settled, we may investigate this pending claim and mediate in your or your
liquidator's name, but at our own expense, with any defense or defenses
which we may believe available to you or your liquidator.
3. The expenses incurred by us will be chargeable, subject to court approval,
against you as part of the expense of liquidation. The benefit which you
may accumulate solely as a result of the defense undertaken by us will be
shared proportionately. Where two or more reinsurers are involved in the
same claim and a majority in interest elect to mediate a defense or
defenses to this claim, the expense will be shared as though such expense
had been incurred by you.
4. In the event of our insolvency and the appointment of receivers therefor,
our liability shall not terminate but shall continue with respect to the
reinsurance ceded to us by you prior to the date of such insolvency or
appointment, and you shall have a security interest in any and all sums,
pertaining to this agreement, held by or under deposit in our name.

companies will appoint one of the arbitrators and these two arbitrators
will select the third.
In the event either contracting company is unable to choose an arbitrator
within thirty days after the other contracting company has given written
notice of its arbitrator appointment, the contracting company which has
given written notice may choose two arbitrators who shall in turn choose a
third arbitrator before entering arbitration. If the two arbitrators are
unable to agree upon the selection of a third arbitrator within thirty days
following their appointment, each arbitrator shall nominate three
candidates within ten days thereafter, two of whom the other shall decline,
and the decision shall be made by drawing lots.
3. With regard to (2) above, arbitration must be conducted in accordance with
the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association
which will be in effect on the date of delivery of demand for arbitration.

amount at risk will be the reinsurance face amount.
B. UNIVERSAL LIFE PLANS - Our net amount at risk will be
the reinsurance face amount, less the account or cash
value, less your retention.
C. The methods of calculating the net amount at risk
described above may not be appropriate because of

given plan of insurance. Then the net amount at risk
will be a method mutually agreeable to both parties.

CONVERSIONS/REPLACEMENTS
The following are guidelines for inter-company term conversions and replacements
of Jefferson-Pilot, Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxx policies:
CONVERSIONS/REPLACEMENTS TO SINGLE LIFE PLANS.
1. Coverage will be maintained with the original reinsurer.
2. Conversions and replacements TO SINGLE LIFE PLANS will be processed on
a point-in-scale basis using rates from the Agreement for the new plan
where applicable (see #3 below).
3. If the original reinsurer is not in the pool for the new plan, rates
will be determined from the most recent relevant Agreement. (i.e. if
the new plan is UL then rates will be determined by using the most
recent UL Agreement for that reinsurer).
CONVERSIONS/REPLACEMENTS TO SURVIVORSHIP PLANS.
1. Coverage will be maintained with the original reinsurer.
2. Conversions and replacements TO SURVIVORSHIP PLANS will be processed
on a point-in-scale basis using allowances taken from the most recent
survivorship Agreement. Currently, the following allowances apply:
POLICY YEAR(S) ALLOWANCE
1 100%
2-10 35%
11+ 25%
3. The allowance year for the survivorship plans will be determined by
averaging the duration of the two lives. For example, a term policy in
its 8th duration and a newly underwritten spouse converting to a
survivorship plan will use a fourth duration allowance initially.
Averages will be rounded up when necessary.
4. Effective May 1, 2000, maximum corporate retention is $2,000,000 for
survivorship plans.
5. When two policies previously reinsured convert to a survivorship plan,
any amount in excess of the larger of the two term policies will be
considered new business. Amounts originally reinsured will be
pro-rated between all the reinsurers involved with the retention of
the survivorship plan being the larger of the previous plans but not
more than $2,000,000.
6. Survivorship plans can be reinsured automatically even though prior
reinsurance may have been facultative providing you retain your full
amount on the new plan.
4. RENEWAL AND
CONVERSION OF
INSURANCE The renewal and conversion of insurance shall be
considered as a continuation of the original insurance.
Future premiums will be calculated on a point-in-scale
basis using the applicable rates in the Agreement. (See
Exhibit III for additional guidelines.)
5. PREMIUM TAX We will not reimburse you for any premium taxes.
6. MINIMUM CESSION You will not cede less than $10,000 to us on an
automatic basis with the exception of the first dollar
business for which there is no minimum cession.
7. The underwriting classification of the new policy will remain the same
as on the converted policy, and the underwriting guidelines applicable
to both policies is consistent. This is particularly important for
preferred classifications.
EXCHANGES TO SCORE PLANS
1. Exchanges to SCORE plans will require full underwriting.
2. Only policies that previously involved no reinsurance or were
reinsured within our current pool are eligible for conversion/exchange
to SCORE.
3. Exchanges to SCORE will be processed on a point-in-scale basis.

2. Cases underwritten using the Lincoln National manual and classified by your
underwriters through Table 4 (200%) will be issued standard. On survivor
policies, where one life is uninsurable, you will not reduce a rating on
the insurable individual. On survivor policies where both lives are
insurable, the program would apply as above.
3. A maximum of $5,000,000 capacity will be split equally between each pool
member, including you. The jumbo limit will remain at $50,000,000 as stated
in Schedule A. You will never cede more than your retention under this
program, unless you are fully retained on a previously issued risk.
4. If an insured has more than $5,000,000 issued and applied-for then only
$5,000,000 can be in the program.
5. Issue ages 15 through 80. For survivorship cases, both lives must be less
than or equal to age 80.
6. Full underwriting will apply.
7. For new cases on which you have new evidence of insurability and a fully
retained older policy exists, you will include both the new case and the
older policy in the program and pay point-in-scale rates on the older
policy.
8. If an increase takes place on a substandard policy, the full amount can be
included in the program.
9. Coverages with flat extra amounts will not be included in the Substandard
Automatic Program.
10. Internal exchanges of fully retained non-rated business may be included in
the Substandard Automatic Program with full underwriting.

Extra for 1 year;
Calculate the INDIVIDUAL current and guaranteed cost of insurance rates for
these three individuals, assuming a $750,000 face amount, for the first 2
policy years.
Solution
Since the face amount is greater than $500,000, we must blend the
individual rates on a current basis. We never blend on a guaranteed basis.
See appendix for Individual ccoi rates and 80 CSO NS/SM ALB Male table.
gcoix SUB(1)[0] = (.14417)(12/1000) = .00173 (always round to 5 digits)
gcoix SUB(2)[0] = .00173
gcoix SUB(3)[0] = (.28750)(12/1000) = .00345
gcoix SUB(1)[1] = (.15167)(12/1000) = .00182
gcoix SUB(2)[1] = .00182
gcoix SUB(3)[1] = (.31083)(12/1000) = .00373
then,
qx SUB(1)[0] = min {.99,.00173} = .00173
qx SUB(2)[0] = min {.99,.00173} = .00173
qx SUB(3)[0] = min {.99,gcoix SUB(3)[0] (1 + TRx SUB(3)[0]/4)
+ FEx SUB(3)[0]} = 00345(1+2/4) + .002 = .007183
qx SUB(1)[1] = .00182
qx SUB(2)[1] = .00182
qx SUB(3)[1] = .00373(1 + 2/4) = .00559
Again, we must blend on a current basis.
Idvx SUB(1)[0] = (12/1000)(.10325) = .00124
Idvx SUB(2)[0] = (12/1000)(.10325) = .00124
Idvx SUB(3)[0] = (12/1000)(.19600) = .00235
Idvx SUB(1)[1] = (12/1000)(.10850) = .00130
Idvx SUB(2)[1] = (12/1000)(.10850) = .00130
Idvx SUB(3)[1] = (12/1000)(.21175) = .00254
from these values we calculate the blended rates
ccoix SUB(1)[0] = .00124/750000(500000
+ (1 - 0.24/2)(750000-500000) = .00119
ccoix SUB(2)[0] = .00119
ccoix SUB(3)[0] = .00235/750000(500000 + (1 - 0.24/2)(750000-500000)
= .00226
ccoix SUB(1)[1] = .00130/750000(500000 + (1 - 0.24/2)(750000-500000)
= .00125
ccoix SUB(2)[1] = .00125
ccoix SUB(3)[1] = .00254/750000(500000 + (1 - 0.24/2)(750000-500000)
= .00244
and then gross them up for any substandard ratings
ccoix SUB(3)[0] = min{.99,(1 + 2/4)(ccoix SUB(3)[0])
+ FEx SUB(3)[0]}
= (1 + 2/4)(.00226) + .002 = .00539.
ccoix SUB(3)[1] = min{.99,(1 + 2/4)(ccoix SUB(3)[1])
+ FEx SUB(3)[1]}
= (1 + 2/4)(.00244) = .00336.
A SUB(z) [0] = (.96154)(.01061) + (.96154)(1-.01061)(.43612) = .42510
IV. USING THE NSP'S AS CORRIDOR PERCENTAGES.
The Death Benefit at any time t must be the greater of the Face amount and
then Accumulated Value divided by the NSP. In other words, if the
Accumulated Value divided by the NSP at duration t is greater then the Face
amount, the policy has entered the corridor and the Death Benefit is equal
to same.
DB SUB(z)[t] = max {FA,(Accumulated Value)/A SUB(z)[t]}
V. CALCULATION OF, PHASE1 AND MAP
Phase1 premium for this product will be a percentage, based on the number
of lives, of the combined new P250 MAP. It is only necessary to sum the
MAPS for each individual, then take a percentage based on the following
formula:
percent = 1 - min(30%,# lives times 5%)
The individual MAPs should include the additional cost for substandard
ratings, just as our other UL products do. The individual MAP is given by
the following formula:
MAP = (MAP per 1,000) + (table rating/4) times the 1st year current cost of
insurance plus the first year flat extra amount per 1000.
For our example the individual MAP's are 3.85 for the 35 year olds. The 45
year old has a substandard rating that must be added to his individual MAP.
MAP SUB(45)=7.43 + 1/2(2.24) + 2 = 10.55
percent = 1 - min(30%, 3(5%)) = 1 - min(30%,15%) = 1 - 15% = 85%
And so finally,
Phase1 = 0.85(3.85 + 3.85 + 10.55) = 15.51
This is a per 1,000 value. Phase1 premium is now
Phase1 = 15.51(300,000/1,000)=$4,653
MAP (for the policy) = Phase1 + 1st year cost of OIR's
In our case there is no OIR's, so MAP = Phase1
VI. SURRENDER CHARGES
To comply with SNFL it will be necessary to calculate the maximum allowable
value of our initial surrender charge. We will then compare this value with
the phase1 premium and set the initial surrender charge equal to the
minimum of these two values. Once this value is determined, we then take
steadily decreasing percentages at future durations to calculate the policy
surrender charge.
Set a SUB(z)[w] = 1, then,
a SUB(z)[w-1] = 1 + v(1-q SUB(z)[w-1])a SUB(z)[w]
-
-
-
a SUB(z)[0] = 1 + v(1-q SUB(z)[0])a SUB(z)[1].
For the same group as above we calculate the Actuarial Annuity Factor.
a SUB(z)[w] = a SUB(z)[54] = 1
a SUB(z)[53] = 1 + (.96154)(1-.99379)(1) = 1.00619
-
-
-
a SUB(z)[0] = 1 + (.96154)(1-.00921)(14.66092) = 14.94747
B = [1.25(min(A SUB(z)[0]/a SUB(z)[0],.04)+.01](FA)
InitSC = min(Phase1,B)
The surrender charge at any duration is then
SC[t] = FA(InitSC)(SC%[t])
VII. TARGET PREMIUM (COMMISSIONABLE PREMIUM)
Target = xxx[Xxxxx0, 00(XX)] + 1st yr OIR premium.
