Withdrawal Provisions

Market value adjustment (MVA)
Your contract also includes a market value adjustment feature—which may decrease or increase your surrender value depending on the change in the index value of the market value adjustment external index since your annuity purchase. Due to the mechanics of a market value adjustment, surrender values generally decrease as the market value adjustment external index rises or remains constant. When the market value adjustment external index decreases enough over time, the surrender value generally increases. However, the market value adjustment is limited to the surrender charge or the interest credited to the accumulation value. This adjustment is applied only during the market value adjustment period to surrenders exceeding the applicable penalty-free allowance.  It does not apply to penalty-free withdrawals, RMDs, the death benefit, or withdrawals after the surrender charge period. 

Penalty-free withdrawals
After your first contract anniversary, you may take a penalty-free withdrawal of up to 5% of your beginning-of-year accumulation value each year. If you withdraw more than that, a surrender charge and market value adjustment may apply. However, by current company practice, we’ll waive surrender charges and market value adjustments on any portion of an IRS-required minimum distribution (RMD) that goes beyond what’s available to you penalty-free. After the surrender charge period, surrender charges and a market value adjustment no longer apply.
A feature offered “by current company practice” is not a contractual guarantee of this annuity contract and can be removed or changed at any time.
