Waivers

Nursing Home

Unavailable in states: CA, and MA

After the first contract anniversary, if the annuitant becomes confined to a qualified nursing care center (skilled nursing facility or residential care facility for the elderly in CA), as defined in the rider, up to 100% of the accumulation value is available each year while the annuitant is confined. If 100% of the accumulation value is taken, it will be considered a full surrender. The annuitant cannot be confined at the time the contract is issued. This rider is automatically included with the annuity at no additional charge. If joint annuitants are named on the annuity, the rider will apply to the first annuitant who qualifies for the benefit.

Premium Notes

Issue ages (may vary by state)
Available issue ages 0-75; CA 0-52, NH 0-74 (qualified and non-qualified).
For issue ages 0-17, a Uniform Gift to Minors Act (UGMA) or Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (UTMA) custodial account must be established.

Minimum premium
Flexible Premium, $20,000 non-qualified and qualified. 
All subsequent premiums will initially be credited a fixed interest rate. We will declare this interest rate for each subsequent premium at the time that subsequent premium is received. The interest rate applicable to each subsequent premium is guaranteed until the end of the contract year. On each contract anniversary, North American will allocate any premiums received since the prior contract anniversary, according to your most recent instructions.  

Withdrawal Provisions

Free Withdrawals After the first contract anniversary, a penalty-free withdrawal (also known as a penalty-free partial surrender), of up to 10% of the accumulation value may be taken each year. After the surrender charge period, surrender charges, premium bonus recapture, and a market value adjustment no longer apply to any withdrawals. Market value adjustmentYour 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 in all states except California.In California, the market value adjustment is limited to the surrender charge or 0.50% of the accumulation value at the time of surrender. This adjustment is applied only during the market value adjustment period to surrenders exceeding the applicable penalty-free allowance.
