How your annuity can grow Performance Choice 8 has a strategy and index account option to suit your style: • Whether you like to take charge of your financial choices or prefer to set it and forget • Whether you’re interested in a fixed return, hoping for more growth potential or a combination
Set your strategy You have total control over how your initial premium is allocated between our fixed account or index accounts. Choose from several crediting methods (more details on the following pages): • Monthly Point-to-Point with Index Cap Rate • Annual Point-to-Point with Index Cap Rate • Annual Point-to-Point with Participation Rate • Annual Point-to-Point with Enhanced Participation Rate (includes charge 1 ) • Two-year Point-to-Point with Participation Rate • Two-year Point-to-Point with Enhanced Participation Rate (includes charge 1 ) • Fixed account 2 1. Known as a strategy fee annual percentage in the contract. In exchange for the charge, you receive an enhanced participation rate. The charge is multiplied by the number of years in the crediting term and is deducted once each term from the accumulated value allocated to the enhanced participation rate method. The charge will be deducted once each term at the earliest of any partial withdrawal that exceeds the penalty-free amount, a full surrender or the end of the term. The strategy charge will be deducted regardless of the interest credited to the contract and can lead to loss of premium in certain scenarios. 2. The declared fixed rate is an annual effective rate. Interest is credited to the fixed account daily. Each index and the index account options on the next page may perform differently in various market scenarios. Unlock greater upside potential with enhanced crediting methods In exchange for a strategy charge, you’ll unlock additional opportunity. The charge is deducted from your accumulation value at the end of each term and is guaranteed to stay the same for the life of the contract. The charge will also be deducted at the time of a full surrender and at the time of a partial withdrawal that exceeds the penalty-free withdrawal amount.
Experience protection with accumulation value (“AV”) true-up 3 If interest credited over your contract term is less than the total strategy charges, there could be a loss of premium. To help protect your premium, your Performance Choice fixed index annuity includes AV true-up, which provides a one- time benefit amount of the excess, if any, of total strategy charges since issue over total interest credited since issue at the end of the Surrender Charge Period. AV true-up is not available if you take excess penalty-free withdrawals.
3. Known as guaranteed accumulation value true-up endorsement in your contract.
