1.02 OTHER DEFINITIONS. Other capitalized terms appearing in this Contract have
the meanings indicated on this Contract's face page or in the Schedule.
PART 2 - ACCUMULATION FUND OPERATION
2.01 ESTABLISHING THE ACCUMULATION FUND. The Accumulation Fund is a general
account record we establish to reflect the Fund Balance. The Contract Payment is
allocated to our general account for investment. We have no obligation to
segregate such amounts. The Fund Balance will not be affected by the investment
results of the assets held in our general account.
2.02 CONTRACT PAYMENTS. You agree to pay to us, in U.S. Dollars, unless another
currency is specified in the Schedule, and by wire transfer, the amount
necessary to support the Contract Payment on the Deposit Date.
2.03 VALUE OF THE ACCUMULATION FUND. The Fund Balance on any given day equals
the Contract Payment, plus interest credited thereon at the Guaranteed Rate,
less any payments made under Part 3. Interest is credited based on the
methodology specified in the Schedule. Interest is earned at the Guaranteed Rate
from the Deposit Date to but excluding the Maturity Date or earlier payment
date.
2.04 INTEREST ON THE ACCUMULATION FUNDS. The Guaranteed Rate for the
Accumulation Fund is effective until the Maturity Date, provided, if an Event of
Default occurs, interest continues to be credited at the Guaranteed Rate until
actual payment of all amounts due. The interest crediting methodology is
specified in the Schedule.
PART 3 - PAYMENTS FROM ACCUMULATION FUND
3.01 PERIODIC PAYMENTS. We shall periodically pay you interest in the amounts
specified in the Schedule as Periodic Payments, on the dates specified,
including the Maturity Payout. Such payment amounts are adjusted to reflect any
other payment payable under this part. The interest factor used in making such
adjustments is the Guaranteed Rate.
3.02 OPTIONAL REDEMPTION PAYMENTS. If so indicated in the Schedule, we shall pay
you amounts you need to redeem or repay any notes or other instruments issued by
you and backed by this Contract, pursuant to any limited right of redemption
contained in such note or instrument. We may require reasonable evidence that
the redemption or payment request satisfied all of the terms and conditions
described in the prospectus, prospectus supplement and/or pricing supplement
applicable to such note or other instrument. Additional restrictions, if any, on
your reimbursement rights under this section may be included in the Schedule.
3.03 EARLY PRE-PAYMENT BY US. If so indicated in the Schedule, we may elect to
pay you all or any part of the Fund Balance on the Call Dates specified in the
Schedule. Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, we will give you at least
45 and no more than 75 days notice of our intent to make such pre-payment. No
adjustment will be made in the amount of such payment, unless such adjustment is
specifically provided for in the Schedule.
3.04 MATURITY PAYMENTS. We shall pay you the Fund Balance on the Maturity Date.
2
3.05 FORM OF PAYMENT. All payments we make to you are made in U.S. Dollars,
unless another currency is specified in the Schedule, by wire transfer, unless
otherwise agreed in writing by the parties hereto. Unless otherwise stated in
the Schedule, all payments we make are net of any applicable withholding or
deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, levies,
assessments or other governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied
by or on behalf of any governmental authority having the power to tax. Such net
payments fully satisfy our obligation to you with respect to the full amount
due.
PART 4 - TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT
4.01 AUTOMATIC TERMINATION. This Contract terminates with respect to the
Accumulation Fund when the Fund Balance is zero or upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default described in ss.4.03(a).
4.02 EARLY TERMINATION. You may terminate this Contract, by giving us two
Business Days notice upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in
ss.4.03(b), (c) or (d) below. We may terminate this Contract by giving you not
less than forty-five days, but no more than seventy-five days, prior written
notice of the occurrence of a Tax Event as described below.
4.03 EVENTS OF DEFAULT. An Event of Default occurs if:
(a) We are dissolved or a resolution is passed or proceeding instituted for
our winding-up, liquidation or similar arrangement (other than pursuant
to a consolidation, amalgamation or merger);
(b) We breach any material obligation, representation or certification
contained herein, provided that there is no bona fide dispute as to
whether such breach has occurred and that such breach continues for
fifteen Business Days following your notice of such breach;
(c) We fail to make any required Periodic Payout described in the Schedule
or any other payment described in ss.ss.3.02 or 3.03 in this or any
other funding agreement we issue in connection with the Program, and
such failure continues for five Business Days after the due date
thereof;
(d) We fail to make the Maturity Payout described in the Schedule or in any
other funding agreement we issue in connection with the Program and
such failure is continuing as of the end of the Business Day following
the due date thereof.
4.04 A TAX EVENT. A Tax Event occurs if we have received an opinion of
independent legal counsel stating in effect that there is more than an
insubstantial risk that as a result of any amendment to, or change (including
any announced prospective change) in, the laws (or regulations thereunder) of
the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or
therein or any amendment to, or change in, an interpretation or application of
any such laws or regulations by any governmental authority in the United States,
which amendment or change is enacted, promulgated, issued or announced on or
after the Effective Date, you are or will be within 90 days of the date thereof,
(1) subject to U.S. federal income tax with respect to interest accrued or
received on this Contract or (2) subject to more than a de minimis amount of
taxes, duties or other governmental charges.
3
4.05 PAYMENT UPON TERMINATION. Unless otherwise specified in the Schedule, we
shall pay you the Fund Balance on the date this Contract terminates. Such
payment fully discharges our obligation to you under this Contract.
