Highlights

TruStage Zone Income Annuity provides an innovative approach to market-linked risk control combined with income for life. With Zone Income, you can set your downside limit — called a floor — along with a corresponding cap on the upside. Once the floor is set, you can’t lose more than that, no matter what happens in the markets, while still enjoying the potential for attractive market growth. Plus, Zone Income adds powerful protection against living longer than your assets. Zone Income lets you enjoy growth opportunities, without the worry of catastrophic loss. With Zone Income, you’re in control. 

The Zone Income Annuity is an insurance contract that offers index-linked returns, a limit on market losses and lifetime income options. 
Available in states: AL, AK, AZ, AR, CA, CO, CT, DE, DC, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, MS, MO, MT, NE, NV, NH, NJ, NM, NC, ND, OH, OK, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, VA, WA, WV, WI, and WY

Withdrawal Provisions

Protected payments
Available without surrender charge or MVA and taken from contract value on a pro rata basis from allocation options. Payments are guaranteed for life while your GLWB rider is in effect, even if contract value goes to zero.

Excess withdrawal
Any withdrawal amount during the year which exceeds the total GLWB payment. Includes withdrawals before the GLWB start date and deductions for any surrender charge or MVA. Excess withdrawals proportionally reduce benefit base and death benefit.

Annual free amount
10% of last anniversary contract value, available annually without surrender charge or MVA. GLWB payments count toward the annual free amount.
