After the first contract year, you may make multiple withdrawals of an amount ($500.00 minimum withdrawal) up to the remaining annual free withdrawal amount available as of the date of the withdrawal without incurring a surrender charge or Market Value Adjustment.
Fixed annuities are generally not subject to required minimum distribution (RMD) rules, but do apply to annuities held within a separate IRA, 401(k) or other retirement account. RMDs are a federal tax law that requires annuity owners to withdraw a minimum amount each year. Beginning in 2023, the SECURE 2.0 Act for RMDs raised the age that you must begin taking RMDs to age 73. Individuals born in 1950 or earlier are unaffected by this change and must take any RMDs due for 2022 and later years.
Death Benefit
If the owner of the contract dies before the annuitization of payments have begun, the contract will pay the value of the annuity to the beneficiary in a lump sum payment. If you die after the payments have begun, the remaining payments, if any, will be made to the beneficiary based on the payout option chosen.
Settlement Options
Lump Sum, Life Only; Life with 10-Year Period Certain; Joint and Last Survivor with 10-Year Period Certain (if annuitized).
