Withdrawal Provisions

Free Withdrawal
The Accumulator product allows for Free Partial Withdrawals, up to 10% of the AV, each year. On qualified contracts, RMD withdrawals can also be taken free of withdrawal charges. A Free Withdrawal is a withdrawal not subject to Withdrawal Charges or Market Value Adjustment. The Free Withdrawal amount will be equal to 10% of the Accumulated Value as of the Contract Anniversary on the first day of that Contract Year. For qualified contracts, required minimum distribution (RMD) withdrawals are available in all Contract Years and are not subject to Withdrawal Charges or Market Value Adjustment.

Market Value Adjustment
A Market Value Adjustment applies to withdrawals in excess of the free withdrawal amount and full surrenders during the withdrawal charge period. If you take a withdrawal before the end of your withdrawal charge period, an MVA will be applied to that withdrawal. If interest rates in the market are higher than when you purchased your annuity, the MVA is negative, meaning an additional amount is deducted from your contract value. The MVA may increase or decrease the amount of the Withdrawal or Cash Surrender Value of your Contract depending on the change in interest rates. If interest rates have increased, stayed the same, or decreased by less than 0.25%, the MVA will be negative. If interest rates have decreased by more than 0.25%, the MVA will be positive.
