Charges For Early
Withdrawals
|
If You make a withdrawal from or surrender the Certificate, You may be
assessed a surrender charge up to 8.0% of the amount withdrawn or
surrendered. Surrender charges are applied to surrenders and withdrawals
based on the date the premium payment is made and not on the effective date
of the Certificate.
For example, if You make an early withdrawal, You could pay a surrender
charge of up to $8,000 on a $100,000 investment.

to investors. This compensation is typically paid in the form of commissions,
but the sale of the Certificate may also count toward the investment

Some investment professionals may have a financial incentive to offer an
investor a new contract in place of the one he or she already owns. That
investor should only exchange his or her existing contract if he or she
determines, after comparing the features, fees, and risks of both contracts, that
it is preferable for him or her to purchase the new contract rather than
