About Product
- Participate in market growth
Opportunity to grow your money without investing directly in the market. - Take advantage of tax deferral
Your money may grow at a faster rate since taxes are deferred until you take a withdrawal or annuitize your contract. - Limit your downside risk
Indexed strategies offer floors and buffers to help reduce exposure to market risk. Plus, strategies are linked to a variety of indexes and ETFs, allowing you to diversify your exposure to different markets. - Put your money to work for you
Many retirement products charge administrative fees that can drag down performance. The Index Achiever has no upfront or recurring charges, meaning all of your money goes to work for you. A market value adjustment will apply to withdrawals or surrenders during the first six contract years.

Waivers
Terminal Illness
Unavailable in states: MA
Provided that the diagnosis is rendered more than one year after the contract effective date, up to 100% of the account value can be withdrawn without incurring a negative MVA if the owner or joint owner is diagnosed by a physician as having a terminal illness with a prognosis of 12 months or less. This waiver may be used only once.
Extended Care
Unavailable in states: MA
To help ease the strain of certain unforeseen events, an extended care waiver is available for no additional charge. If the owner is confined to a nursing home or other long-term care facility after the completion of the first contract year for at least 90 consecutive days, any negative MVAs may be waived on withdrawals up to a full surrender. The nursing home waiver does not include home health care.

Issue age is the owner’s age at last birthday. For joint owners, the oldest age will be used as the issue age. If the owner is a non-natural person, the age of the eldest annuitant will be treated as the age of the owner for all purposes under this contract.
Purchase payments
You can purchase this annuity with an initial purchase payment of $25,000 or more. You can add to your annuity during the first two contract months with additional purchase payments of at least $10,000.
6-year term with 10% buffer strategy is only available at issue.
Withdrawal Provisions
Early withdrawal charges There are no early withdrawal charges. A market value adjustment (MVA) will apply during the first six contract years. MVA A market value adjustment will apply to withdrawals from indexed strategies or surrenders during the first six contract years. MVA exceptions The MVA does not apply to withdrawals taken from the declared rate strategy. A maximum of 12% can be allocated to the declared rate strategy for initial allocations and reallocations at the end of a term. The MVA also does not apply to amounts taken from an indexed strategy to pay for advisory fees. Withdrawals Withdrawals are allowed any time prior to the annuity payout initiation date. All withdrawals are subject to IRS regulations. Withdrawals will be taken first proportionally from the purchase payment account, then proportionally from the declared rate strategies until all declared rate strategies are exhausted, and then proportionally from indexed strategies having the shortest term. If clients would like the ability to take withdrawals from their annuity without incurring a market value adjustment, they should consider allocating a portion of their account value to the declared rate strategy.
