Partial surrenders or loans will effect policy proceeds and account value and may be subject to income tax. Policy loans will incur
interest. If the policy is classified as a Modified Endowment Contract under IRS rules, distributions are generally subject to income
taxes and a federal tax penalty if made before age 59½. Taxes may be incurred if policy is allowed to lapse before maturity.
2
Policy death benefit will be received income tax-free provided there has not been a transfer for value; benefits may be received estate tax-
free if the policy has been gifted to an Irrevocable Trust more than three years before the insured’s death.
