Withdrawal Provisions

Free Withdrawal
10% of your Beginning of Year Account Value is available for withdrawal, penalty-free, after the first contract year. The Free Withdrawal is not cumulative and must be taken in a single transaction per contract year. Free Withdrawals are taken from the Fixed Account unless otherwise specified by the owner. If any withdrawal is not fully paid from the Fixed Account, the unpaid portion will be deducted pro-rata from the Account Value held in all Index Accounts with the same term, starting with the shortest-term Index Accounts. 

Required Minimum Distribution (RMDs)
RMDs can be taken penalty-free after the first six months and can be scheduled for systematic withdrawal, subject to terms. Withdrawal Charges do not apply to RMDs, even if in excess of the Free Withdrawal amount. RMDs may be scheduled for systematic withdrawal to be taken automatically on an annual, semi-annual, quarterly, or monthly basis. There is a $100 minimum for systematic withdrawals, and they must be paid by electronic transfer.

Death Benefit
The Death Benefit is equal to the greater of the Account Value or the Minimum Guaranteed Cash Surrender Value.

Spousal Continuation
If the owner dies and the sole, primary beneficiary is the deceased Owner’s spouse, the beneficiary may elect to continue the contract as the new Owner. The options available vary by rider phase and Owner type. 
  • Death before the Income Start Date: The spouse has the option to continue the rider, with no change in benefits. 
  • Death after the Income Start Date: If Joint Income was elected, with the deceased Owner’s spouse as the Joint Covered Person, the surviving spouse may continue the contract and continue receiving the Lifetime Income Amount. Otherwise, if the Covered Person is deceased, the spouse may continue the contract, but the GLWB will be terminated.
