Sample Policy Section POLICY BENEFITS
Death Benefits—When we receive proof that the insured’s death occurred while this policy was in effect, we will pay the insurance provided by this policy and its riders. A refund or charge will be made to adjust any premium payments to the end of the month in which the insured’s death occurred. We will pay the resulting amount to the beneficiary.
We will also pay interest on that amount from the date of death to the date of payment. The yearly rate of interest will be the same as we use for death benefits left with us at interest.
Suicide Exception—If the insured dies by suicide, while sane or insane, within two years of the policy date, no death benefits will be paid. Instead, we will return the premiums paid.
Dividends—At the end of the second and each following year, we ill determine your dividend, if any, and pay it to you in cash. We do not expect that any dividends will become payable.
PREMIUMS, LAPSE AND REINSTATEMENT Payment—Premiums are payable:
• in the amounts, at the intervals and on the due dates shown;
• to us or to our producer who will give you a receipt signed by our Secretary.
Grace Period—There is a grace period of 31 days for you to pay each premium after the first. Insurance will continue during the grace period.
Lapse—If any premium is not paid by the end of its grace period, this policy will lapse. The date of the lapse is the due date of the premium not paid. Upon lapse, this policy will terminate except as provided in the reinstatement clause.
Renewal—On each anniversary before the end of the renewal period, you may renew this policy for another term period of one year. To do this, simply pay the required renewal premium before the end of its grace period.
Conversion—At any time before the end of the conversion period, you may convert this policy to a new policy on the insured’s life. To do this, you must apply in writing on a form we provide. You must also give us this policy to be cancelled. The date of cancellation will be the new policy’s date. The new policy will become effective on its date only if the insured is then living.
• The amount of insurance on the new policy will be the same as the amount of insurance on this policy. If you wish, you may select a lower amount as long as it is not less than our regular minimum limit at the time of conversion.
• The new policy will be on the whole life or any higher premium plan we regularly issue at the time of conversion.
It will be issued in the same underwriting class and contain the same restrictions, if any, as this policy. It will be issued at our published premium rates which apply at the insured’s age in the new policy’s date.
• Premium waiver may be included in the new policy if:
• premium waiver is included in this policy;
• the insured is not totally disabled on the new policy’s date;
• the new policy’s premium period is at least 20 years; and
• the insured’s age on the new policy’s date is 55 years or less.
• Other riders, whether or not included in this policy, will not be included in the new policy without our consent at the time.
• If we are waiving premiums for this policy at the insured’s age 65, and if you then convert this policy to a whole life policy in the manner described above, we will waive premiums under the new policy while total disability continues without interruption.
Sample Policy Section
Reinstatement—You may reinstate this policy within five years of lapse if:
• you provide evidence of insurability which satisfies us;
• you pay all past due premiums with interest on each from its due date at 6% compounded each year; and
• the final renewal term period has not expired.
INCOME BENEFITS
Income Benefits—Death benefits may be used to buy a monthly income for the lifetime of the beneficiary. After it starts the income will last for at least 10 years. The income is guaranteed to be 3% greater than the income based on our published rates for single premium immediate annuities at the time the income is bought. The income bought by each $1,000 will always be at least as large as that shown below.
Monthly income amounts for ages not shown are halfway between the two amounts for the nearest two ages which are shown.
Guaranteed amounts for ages under 30 are the same as those for age 30; guaranteed amounts for ages over 75 are the same as those for age 75. Amounts shown are based on the 1971 Individual Annuity Mortality Table with interest at 4% per year.
Incomes must be at least $25 a month. We may require evidence of survival for incomes which last more than 10 years.
GENERAL PROVISIONS
The Contract—The application is attached to the policy. Together, they make up the entire contract. All statements in the application are representations and not warranties. Only statements in the application can be used to void this policy or to defend a claim on the grounds of misrepresentation.
Modifications—Only our President or Secretary has the right to change or waive the terms of this policy.
Incontestability—This policy will be incontestable after it has been in force during the insured’s lifetime for two years from the policy date.

Whole Life Insurance Policy Summary
This is a summary of your life insurance policy. A life insurance policy is a legal contract between you as the owner and the company as the insurer. Its purpose is to pay an amount of money upon your death, or the insured’s death if you are not the insured, to the person you designate. In exchange for that benefit, you agree to pay premiums when due.
In this policy summary, some of the basic provisions of your life insurance policy are explained. Not everything can be explained here, however. If you have any questions about your policy that are not answered in this summary, the policy itself may contain the answers. If not, ask the producer or the company.
You have ten days after receipt of this policy to review it. If you decide you don’t want to keep it, return it to the producer or the company within the ten day period and you will receive a refund of all premiums paid.
1. The amount of insurance. The face amount of insurance is shown on the Policy Schedule.
2. Premiums. The yearly premium on your policy is shown on the Policy Schedule. Any year by year variation in premiums is also shown. If you were charged an extra premium due to a health problem or any other reason, that too is shown. You may also pay the premium more often than once a year. There are extra charges for this right because the expenses are higher and because the company cannot earn as much interest as it would if it received the full premium at the beginning of the year.
a. Grace Period. The law allows you to pay any premium without penalty during a grace period of 31 days after the due date. If you do not pay your premiums within the grace period, your policy will lapse unless any accumulated dividends are sufficient to pay the premium or you have elected the Automatic Premium Loan provision.
b. Reinstatement. If the policy lapses, you have the right to reinstate the policy. That means put it back in force any time within five years after the due date of the premium you failed to pay. There are some conditions for this reinstatement and they are explained in the policy.
3. Policy Loans. After the policy has a cash value, you may borrow on your policy for any purpose. The loan will bear interest at 8%. Any amount of the loan outstanding plus interest will be deducted from the policy proceeds if you die or surrender the policy.
4. Dividends. This is a participating policy. This means that the company may pay dividends to the owner, depend- ing upon mortality rates, interest rates and costs of doing business. Dividends can be paid in cash or they can be used in a number of ways such as the purchase of additional insurance. The choices you have are outlined in the Dividends and Dividend Options provisions of this policy.
5. Exclusions. There are certain situations in which the Company can refuse to pay the death benefit under this policy. Suicide within two years of the date of issue of the policy is one such situation. If you gave a material, false statement when you applied for this policy, and die within two years from its date of issue, the Company may refuse to pay the death benefit.
PREMIUMS AND REINSTATEMENT
(a) Payment. Each premium is payable on or before the due date. The first premium is due on the Policy Date.
Upon request we will send a signed receipt.
(b) Frequency. Premiums may be paid once per year, twice per year or once per quarter. The Owner may change the mode of payments if we approve.
(c) Grace Period. If a premium is not paid on or before the due date, it is in default. There is a grace period of 31 days from the due date. During this period, this policy will remain in force. After that, if your premium is unpaid this policy will expire except as provided in the Benefits on Lapse or Surrender Provisions. If you die during the grace period, a month’s premium will be deducted from the policy proceeds.
(d) Premium Refund at Death. At your death we will refund as part of the policy proceeds the portion of any premium paid for a period beyond the policy month of your death.
Reinstatement. This policy may be reinstated at any time within five years after default in premium payment, if:
(a) The policy has not been surrendered for cash;
(b) You provide evidence of insurability accepted by us; and
(c) All past due premiums are paid and any indebtedness is paid or reinstated with compound interest on both at 6% per year.
LOAN AND REPAYMENT
Policy Loan. We will make loans on this policy. It must be in force other than as extended term insurance. The policy must be assigned to us as security for the loan. The loan value is the sum which with interest, shall not exceed the net surrender value: (a) on the date to which premiums have been paid; or, (b) if no further premiums are payable, on the next policy anniversary. Whenever indebtedness equals or exceeds the cash value, this policy will be void 31 days after notice has been mailed to the last known address of the Owner and any assignee shown on our records.
We may defer making any loan, except to pay premiums, for not more than six months from receipt of written request for the loan.
Automatic Premium Loan. We will charge the amount of any premium not paid before the end of the grace period as a loan against the policy from the due date of that premium. To do this we require a written request received by us before the end of the grace period. If the loan value is not enough to pay the premium then due, no automatic premium loan shall be made and this policy will expire except as provided in the Benefits on Lapse or Surrender Provisions.
As long as the policy is in force under this provision, payment of premiums may be resumed without evidence of insurability.
The automatic premium loan may be stopped at any time by written request to us.
DIVIDENDS AND DIVIDEND OPTIONS
Dividend. This policy, while in force (except as extended term insurance), will share in any divisible surplus of our participating business as determined each year by us. Dividends, if any, are due on policy anniversaries. The dividend at the end of the first policy year will be payable only if the premium then due for the second policy year is paid.
Options. At the option of the Owner, each dividend may be:
(a) paid in cash; or
(b) used toward payment of any premium then due on this policy if the balance of such premium is duly paid; or (c) held by us at interest at the rate we set, but not less than 2-1/2% compounded annually; or
(d) used to buy participating paid-up additions to this policy; such additions would be paid upon receipt of due proof of your death; or
(e) used to buy a one-year term insurance addition (term additions); or (f) used in any other manner to which we consent.
Term Additions. Option (e) may be chosen only if this policy is in a Standard Premium Class. It must be requested in the application for this policy or by written request received and approved by us. Option (e) shall apply only to dividends which become due after our receipt and approval of such request and before this option is cancelled by written request.
Each term addition shall be payable upon receipt by us of due proof that your death occurred within one year starting with the date such dividend became due. Each term addition shall expire without grace or notice at the end of said year so that only one term addition may be in force at any time. For policies in a Standard Premium Class, the charge for each term addition shall not exceed the net annual premium according to the Commissioners 1958 Extended Term Table and 3% interest with continuous functions.
General Provisions. Options (a), (b), (c), or (d) may be chosen for any part of any dividend not used under option (e) at any time within 31 days starting with the due date of such dividend.
Option (d) shall apply if no other option has been chosen for any part of any dividend within 31 days starting with the due date of such dividend. If they have not been used under the Benefits on Lapse or Surrender Provisions, dividends held by us and dividend additions (but not term additions) may be surrendered for their cash value less any indebtedness. If not otherwise used, dividend additions and dividends held by us will be paid at your death.
OWNERSHIP, BENEFICIARY AND ASSIGNMENT
Ownership. You are the Owner of this policy, unless someone else is named owner in the application or a written request approved by and filed with us. Unless otherwise provided: (a) the Owner may exercise policy rights during your life and (b) if the Owner dies during your life, all rights will vest in the Owner’s estate.
Beneficiary. The beneficiary choice in the application will stay in effect unless changed by the Owner. If there is no beneficiary living or chosen, the proceeds will be paid to the Owner or his estate.
Change of Owner or Beneficiary. The Owner may transfer ownership or change the beneficiary by written request approved by us. When the request is filed at our Home Office, the transfer or change will be effective as of the date signed by the Owner, whether or not the Owner or Insured is living when the request is filed. We will not be liable for action taken by us before that filing.
Assignment. This policy may be assigned by the Owner. We are not bound by any assignment until it is received at our Home Office. We are not responsible for the validity of an assignment.
GENERAL PROVISIONS
Suicide. If you die by suicide, within two years from the Date of Issue your insurance shall be limited to the amount of premiums paid. This applies whether you are sane or insane at the time of suicide.
Incontestability. This policy may not be challenged after it has been in force during your life for two years from the Date of Issue except for failure to pay premiums. This provision does not apply to added benefits for disability or accidental death.

Payments by Company. Payments by us are payable at our Home Office. Any indebtedness will be deducted from any payment under this policy.

BENEFITS ON LAPSE OR SURRENDER
Guaranteed Values. After premiums have been paid until this policy has a cash value, the owner may select, within 90 days after the due date of the premium in default, any one of the options listed below. If no written selection is made within the 90 days, then the automatic option will apply. The automatic option for a standard premium class policy is Option (c). The automatic option for a special premium class policy or a policy issued under a tax qualified retirement program is Option (b). Option (c) is not available if this is a special premium class policy.
The Net Surrender Value is the tabular cash value shown in the Table of Guaranteed Values, plus the present value of any dividend additions and the amount of any dividend accumulations, less any indebtedness. These values shall be calculated as of the due date of the premium in default, except that any indebtedness to be deducted shall include any indebtedness charged against the policy after such due date.
(a) Surrender. This policy may be surrendered for the Net Surrender Value. We may defer payment up to six months.
Interest at the yearly rate of 3% will be allowed on any payment of the Net Surrender Value which is deferred more than 30 days.
(b) Participating Paid-Up Insurance. This policy may be continued without any further premium payment as a paid- up participating contract payable upon receipt of due proof of your death. The Net Surrender Value of the policy shall
(c) Non-Participating Extended Term Insurance. This policy may be continued without further premium payment as non-participating Extended Term Insurance beginning with the due date of the premium in default. The amount of insurance shall equal the face amount of the policy, plus any paid-up additions and any dividend accumulations, less any indebtedness. The amount of insurance shall not include any one year term insurance addition. The Net Surren- der Value of the policy shall be used as a net single premium to determine the duration of insurance. This option is not available if the Net Surrender Value exceeds the present value of Extended Term Insurance for life.
Surrender of Paid-up or Extended Term Insurance. While it is in force as paid-up or extended term insurance, this policy may be surrendered to the Company at its Home Office for its cash value which shall equal the then present value of such paid-up or extended term insurance, including the then present value of any dividend additions and the then amount of any dividend accumulations to such paid-up insurance and less any indebtedness; except that within 31 days after any policy anniversary such cash value shall be calculated as of such anniversary.
Basis of Values. All net single premiums and present values referred to in this policy are based on the Commission- ers 1958 Standard Ordinary Mortality Table except that net single premiums for extended term insurance are based on the Commissioners 1958 Extended Term Insurance Table. The calculations are based on continuous functions, age nearest birthday and with an interest rate of 3% per year.
On any policy anniversary the tabular cash value of this policy shall equal the excess, if any, of (a) the then present value of the future basic benefits as defined in the policy schedule, over (b) the then present value of a series of annual amounts beginning on such anniversary and continuing during the remaining premium paying period. Each such annual amount shall equal the Non-Forfeiture Factor shown in the table of Guaranteed Values for the appropri- ate policy year.
All guaranteed values in this policy are at least as great as the minimums required by the law of the state in which this policy is delivered.
Any supplemental agreement attached to this policy will not increase the cash values or paid-up insurance benefits unless otherwise provided in the agreement.
The Table of Guaranteed Values gives the values for the full face amount of this policy, provided this policy is free of indebtedness and has neither dividend additions nor accumulations. Allowance shall be made for lapse of time and payment of premiums beyond the beginning of each policy year. Any values not shown will be quoted on request.
The entire loan value at the end of any policy year, less interest for the intervening period, will be available during the same year if the entire premium for that year has been paid.
OPTIONAL SETTLEMENT—METHODS OF RECEIVING POLICY PROCEEDS
While you are living, the Owner may elect settlement of the net policy proceeds under one or a combination of the following options and may revoke or change an election before any proceeds are so applied. If no such election is in force at your death, the beneficiary may elect settlement. Election of any option is subject to the conditions provided in this policy for changing a beneficiary and to the following:
(1) If the net proceeds for any one Payee under any option is less than $5,000, we will pay such amount as a single sum. We will lengthen payment intervals to make payments to any Payee at least $50.
(2) Election of any option by a corporation, partnership, association, assignee or fiduciary is permitted only with our consent.
(3) Options B or E may be elected only if the Payee is the Insured or Annuitant. Proof of the Payee’s age is required if Option B or E is elected.
(4) Unless otherwise directed in the election of the option and approved by us, the Payee shall not have the right to commute, encumber or assign any installment or interest payment under any option, nor to withdraw any amount held by us under Option C or D. Under Option E no payment may be commuted, encumbered or assigned. We have the right to require 6 months written notice of any commutation or withdrawal.
The income under these options may be paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually.
Option A Fixed Period. Income to the Payee in equal installments for a specified number of years, the first install- ment being immediate. The amount will be as shown in the Option A Settlement Table, which is calculated at a 3%
yearly rate of interest. Any share of surplus apportioned by us shall be paid on each anniversary of the first installment.
Option B Life Income. Income to the Payee, the first installment being immediate, for the lifetime of the Payee, or for a guaranteed period and as long thereafter as the original Payee shall live. The guaranteed period may be 5 years, 10 years, 20 years or a refund period such that the sum of the installments payable, including any fractional final payment, shall equal the proceeds applied. The amount of each installment shall be as declared by us and in effect at the time the first installment comes due, but shall not be less than the amount shown in the Option B Settlement Table, determined by the sex and adjusted age of the Payee on the due date of the first installment.
Option C Interest. Interest income to the Payee on the proceeds and applied at such rate as we declare each year, but never less than the equivalent of the yearly rate of 3%.
Option D Fixed Amount. Income to the Payee in equal installments, the first to be immediate, until the proceeds applied are exhausted. The amount payable in each year shall not be less than 5% of such proceeds. The final installment shall be the unpaid balance of such proceeds. On each anniversary of the first installment, interest will be added to the unpaid balance at such rate as we declare each year but never less than the yearly rate of 3%.
Option E Joint and Survivor Income. Income during the joint lifetime of the Payee and one Contingent Payee, on whose lives the option is based, and providing installments of the full amount if the Payee alone shall survive or installments of either the full amount or one-half the full amount, as elected, if the Contingent Payee alone shall survive. Payments shall be made jointly to the Payee and Contingent Payee while both are living. Thereafter the elected payment shall be made to the survivor while living. The amount of each installment shall be determined, in accordance with the Option E Settlement Table, by the sex and adjusted ages of the Payees on the due date of the first installment. The amount of income for any combination of adjusted ages not shown will be quoted upon request.
This option shall not be available unless both Payees’ adjusted ages at nearest birthday are at least 25 years.
Death of Payee. At the death of the Payee, any unpaid proceeds and accrued interest thereon under Option C or D, or the then commuted value of any installments certain then remaining unpaid under Option A or B, shall be payable in one sum to the executors or administrators of the Payee unless otherwise directed in the settlement election and approved by us.
Other Settlement Options. Provisions may be made for settlement of the net proceeds of this policy in any other manner approved by us.
