5. For Producer or Broker/Dealer Use Only. Not for Public Distribution. Tax Diversification – Tax Control Triangle 5 1 Distributions from a life insurance policy through withdrawals of certain policy values (up to cost basis) and loans are generally not taxed as income provided you follow certain premium limits which prevent your policy from becoming a Modified Endowment Contract (MEC). Distributions taken during the first fifteen years may be subject to tax. Loans and withdrawals will generally reduce the cash value available and the death benefit payable. If policy loans are taken, there may be income tax consequences if you permit the policy to lapse or if the policy is surrendered or exchanged. 2 Traditional IRA contributions may be deducted if certain criteria are met. 3 Assuming the funds have been held in the account for at least five years and owner has reached age 59½ at the time withdrawals are taken. 4 Municipal bond interest is generally tax-free for regular federal income tax purposes.

7. For Producer or Broker/Dealer Use Only. Not for Public Distribution. Life Insurance as an Asset - Overview Tax-Free Death Benefit –Primary purpose of life insurance –Income and estate tax-free 1 Tax-Deferred Growth Potential for Tax-Free Distributions –Policy loans and withdrawals Flexible Asset –No contribution limits based on income –Distributions prior to age 59 ½ 7 1 Depending on the ownership structure, life insurance can be estate tax free. Loans and withdrawals will decrease the cash value and death benefit. Distributions are generally treated first as tax-free recovery of basis and then as taxable income, assuming the policy is not a Modified Endowment Contract (MEC). However, different rules apply in the first fifteen policy years, when distributions accompanied by benefit reductions may be taxable prior to basis recovery. Non-MEC loans are generally not subject to tax but may be taxable when the policy lapses, is surrendered, exchanged or otherwise terminated. In the case of a MEC, loans and withdrawals are taxable to the extent of policy gain and a 10% penalty may apply if taken prior to age 59 ½. Always confirm the status of a particular loan or withdrawal with a qualified tax advisor. Cash value accumulation may not be guaranteed depending on the type of product selected. Investments in variable life insurance are subject to market risk, including loss of principal.

28. For Producer or Broker/Dealer Use Only. Not for Public Distribution. 28 For Provider Universal Life, the Coverage Continuation Benefit (CCB) guarantees that the policy will remain in force, as long as the required premiums are paid, until the end of the elected guarantee period, but no later than age 95. Policy changes, withdrawals, or loans not accounted for at the time the CCB premium was determined will affect the CCB guarantee’s duration or cause the policy to lapse. If the CCB terminates, the policy will stay in force as long as either its cash value is sufficient to pay for the policy’s monthly charges or a premium payment sufficient to pay those charges is made within the policy’s grace period. The CCB does not guarantee the policy’s cash value. If only the premium to maintain the CCB guarantee is paid, the policy cash value could become a negative amount. In that situation, the monthly deductions for policy charges will be accumulated without interest. This amount must be repaid before any cash value can be accumulated.
