Waivers
Nursing Home
Unavailable in states: MA
Should the owner become confined to a nursing home, ViStar provides access to the full account value, without surrender charges or applicable market value adjustments. The benefit becomes available after the first contract anniversary. The contract must be issued prior to the owner’s age of 76 and the confinement in a nursing home must be for at least 90 continuous days. The nursing home waiver does not include home health care.
Terminal Illness
If the owner becomes terminally ill or is deemed terminally ill by a physician, ViStar allows withdrawals up to the full account value without surrender charges or applicable market value adjustments. Eligibility is subject to rider provisions, which are: 1. Physician must certify that the owner’s life expectancy is nine months or less; or 2. The owner is diagnosed with a heart attack, stroke or life threatening cancer after the policy was purchased, in force for one year and owner is not over age 70.

Premium Notes

However, additional funds may be deposited within the first 12 months to the 1-Year fixed interest rate strategy and it is not set up on an automatic basis. At the end of the first contract year, the additional funds may be reallocated to the index strategy accounts.
Additional Premium Minimum: $500
Maximum Premium: $1,000,000
Withdrawal Provisions
Surrender Charge Surrender charge percentages apply to the account value after the market value adjustment. Surrender charges will not be allowed to reduce the surrender value below the MGCV. Market Value Adjustment Any amounts payable that are assessed a surrender charge will also be subject to a market value adjustment (MVA), which may increase or decrease the amount payable. The MVA generally increases the contract withdrawal value when interest rates fall, and decreases the contract withdrawal value when interest rates rise. The MVA is not applied a) at the end of the surrender charge period; b) to penalty-free withdrawals; c) to the death benefit at the death of the owner; or d) to any settlement option after the fifth contract year with the payments being made over at least five 10% Penalty-Free WithdrawalA penalty-free withdrawal of up to 10% of the Account Value calculated as of the last Contract Anniversary. Surrender charges and market value adjustment will be waived on the penalty-free amount withdrawn. Amounts withdrawn in excess of the penalty-free amount will incur a surrender charge and market value adjustment, if applicable. Surrender charges on Internal Revenue Service (IRS) required minimum distributions (RMD) exceeding the penalty-free withdrawal amount will be waived.
