Waivers
Bail-Out
You have the option of withdrawing your Contract Value if the S&P500 annual point-to-point cap renewal rate falls below the stated bailout cap rate at contract issue.
Nursing Home
You can withdraw up to 100% of your annuity’s Contract Value if you are confined to an eligible Nursing Home. This benefit is available if you are confined for at least 90 consecutive days any time after your first Contract Anniversary and meet eligibility requirements. No Withdrawal Charge or MVA will be applied if you qualify for this benefit. To receive the Nursing Home Waiver, you cannot be confined on the Contract Effective Date.
Terminal Illness
You can withdraw up to 100% of your annuity’s Contract Value if you are diagnosed with a terminal illness that is expected to result in death within one year and meet eligibility requirements. No Withdrawal Charge or MVA will be applied if you qualify for this benefit. This waiver is available after your first Contract Anniversary and the initial diagnosis of terminal illness must be made after the Contract Effective Date.
Premium Notes
May be issued as Non-Qualified, Traditional IRA, or Roth IRA.
Accepts rollovers from qualified plans, 457 plans, IRAs, Simplified Employee Pension (SEP) plans, 403(b) plans, and SIMPLE IRAs.
Note: Inherited IRA would be rolled over into a New Traditional IRA. If you already have an IRA, you can roll over the inherited assets to another traditional IRA in your name or convert the assets to a Roth IRA. The simplest way to do that is through a direct, trustee-to-trustee transfer from one account to the other or between one IRA custodian and another.
Withdrawal Provisions
