Premium Bonus: By providing your client with the 4% first-year premium
bonus and placing his/her premium in the Declared Interest Account paying 3%
(currently declared as of 1/1/06), you are guaranteeing your client a 7.12%
compounded yield for the first year. Then your client can change his/her
crediting method in the next year to any of the other index crediting methods
(in any combination).

Death Benefit Payout Rider:
A) If your client is looking for a way to stretch NonQualified funds, describe how this rider can allow
the beneficiary to spread out any taxable gains over
a 15 or 25-year payment period.
B) This rider allows your client to provide an extra
“bonus” over either 15 or 25 years upon his/her
death without having to medically qualify for the
additional proceeds.
