1. Premium bonus special is for a limited time. Premium bonus and enhanced premium bonus may vary by annuity product, premium band and surrender charge period selected and may be subject to a premium bonus and enhanced premium bonus recapture. Products that have premium bonuses may offer lower credited interest rates, lower index cap rates, lower participation rates and/or greater index margins than products that don’t offer a premium bonus. Over time and under certain scenarios the amount of the premium bonus and enhanced premium bonus may be offset by the lower credited interest rates, lower index cap rates, lower participation rates and/or greater index margins. The premium bonus and enhanced premium bonus are not recaptured in the event of death of the annuitant. No premium bonus or enhanced premium bonus recapture will occur on any penalty-free withdrawal amount under the nursing home confinement waiver or on any rider charge.
2. A surrender during the surrender charge period could result in a loss of premium. The surrender charge and interest adjustment (also known as market value adjustment) may reset with renewal. Surrender charge structures and guarantee periods may vary by state.
