Market Value Adjustment (MVA)
A Market Value Adjustment (MVA) will be applied any time a surrender charge is applied. The purpose of the MVA is, in case of an early withdrawal, to adjust the value of your funds for the change in interest rates. The change is measured by comparing the base interest rate credited in your contract, with the base interest rates being credited by the company on current sales of the same contract form. An upward change in base interest rates will cause a decrease in the value. A downward change in base interest rates will cause an increase in the value. The value of a negative adjustment for a 1% increase in interest rates will be the same as the value of a positive adjustment for a 1% decrease in interest rates. The benefit of having an MVA is that Clear Spring Life can offer a higher interest rate than it would offer if the contract did not contain an MVA provision. The MVA does not apply to penalty-free withdrawals, to the payment of a death benefit, or at the end of the guarantee period. Please refer to page seven of the contract for the MVA provision. It will apply to withdrawals that exceed the penalty-free withdrawal amount during a guarantee period. The MVA is not applicable in Delaware.
Death Benefit
The named beneficiary(ies) of the Preserve Multi-Year Guaranteed Annuity will be paid a death benefit that is equal to the account value. Your beneficiary may choose to receive the payouts in either a lump sum or a series of income payments. In the case of joint owners, the death benefit is paid on the death of the first owner.
