You have paved the way Baby boomers redefined life in America in so many ways. Blazing the trail in everything from technology and consumer goods to cultural elements like music and social norms; this is a generation of innovators with a true zest for making the most of life. Because of their contributions, our world is more exciting, full of choices and more accessible than ever before.
Now it is time to enjoy the ride
As the great wave of baby boomers enters a new phase of life, the meaning of retirement has also undergone a radical transformation. Leaving the workaday world is not slowing people down - quite the opposite! Retirees are embarking on new adventures and are serving as a catalyst for changes in health care, senior living, and a host of services geared toward older adults.
The Retirement Plus Multiplier ® Annuity was created for a new generation of retirees.

Planning Your Retirement As you think about all the ways you want to enjoy retirement, it’s important to create a financial strategy that will allow you to make the most of your money and other sources of income. So you can enjoy the lifestyle you envision, your strategy must also address potential events that could negatively affect your finances. Below are key considerations for your financial future.
Rising Costs
Protect Your Principal from Market Losses
While the U.S. has enjoyed relatively low in ation rates in the last decade, advances in technology and our standard of living have increased the cost of common expenditures includ- ing the price of cars, food and potentially most important – health care. Your budget should account for both necessary and optional expenses, and provide room for rising costs over time.
Markets go up and markets go down. But volatility during your retirement years can greatly impact your nancial strategy more than before. Negative performance is magni ed when you are also withdrawing funds for income. Your strategy should include nancial products that minimize or prevent losses to your retirement money due to downswings in the market.
Longevity
As we live longer and longer, our time in retirement often extends as well. That’s great news, but you’ll need to plan for up to 30 years without an employer’s paycheck. Make certain your strategy includes ways to maximize your money to go the distance.
Low Interest Rate Environment
During retirement it’s important for your money to continue to work for you. Low interest rates have made conservative growth options less attractive for retirees. Your strategy should strike an appropriate balance of protection for your money and opportunity for it to grow.

The Retirement Plus Multiplier ® Annuity is a fixed indexed annuity designed to help you prepare for your financial future. (ICC18-ACLSFIANPOL-ICC, ACLSFIANPOL XX, ICC19-ACLSFIANMYPREN, ACLSFIANMYPREN-OT). Retirement Plus Multiplier ® Annuity
• Participate in potential market index growth • Protect accumulation value from market loss • Provide retirement income for your lifetime • Choose from a variety of options to best fit your financial needs
Capture the Market’s Upside At this stage, preserving your money is just as important as getting a meaningful return. The Retirement Plus Multiplier ® Annuity provides greater earnings potential than fixed rate options. Your annuity’s growth is tax-deferred, which means you do not pay taxes on the interest earned until you make a withdrawal.
You may elect to allocate your funds among several index crediting strategies and a fixed rate option. Index crediting strategies will grow along with the market, and credits are applied to your contract’s accumulation value subject to either a percentage cap or a participation rate. Even when market performance drops, your money is protected. The guaranteed interest rate is 0%, so if the market stays flat or goes down, your credited gains are protected from loss.

Boost Your Annuity’s Potential
You may select one of the two optional riders to enhance your annuity and customize the benefits to best meet your financial goals.
Growth Benefit Accumulation Buy Up Rider (ICC19-ACLSFIANBU 0219, ACLSFIANBU18-XX 01/2019). If accumulation is your main priority, this rider increases the growth potential of your annuity’s index accounts. When you purchase this rider, the participation and cap rates are increased so your annuity benefits from more of the market’s positive performance.
Income Multiplier Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit Rider (ICC18-ACLSFIANGLWB18, ACLSFIANGLWB18 XX). Maximize the potential income from your annuity with this rider. This optional benefit will enhance your potential income, which you’ll never outlive, even after all your accumulation value has been withdrawn.

Goldman Sachs Aging of America Dynamic Balance Index
10,000 Americans turn 65 every day. By 2030, 20% of the U.S. population will be 65 or older¹
Created by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, the Index, dynamically allocates to equities, as represented by the Solactive Aging of America TR Index, U.S. fixed income, as represented by a 10-Year U.S. Treasury Rolling Futures Index, and a hypothetical cash investment. The Solactive Aging of America TR Index seeks to provide targeted exposure to companies in the healthcare and real estate sectors that may benefit from the long- term demographic shift towards an older population in the United States. Exposure to 10- Year U.S. Treasury Rolling Futures Index, a fixed income benchmark, is based on a daily observed momentum signal. The Goldman Sachs index includes a volatility control feature and is calculated on an excess return basis.

Settlement Options
You may choose, after the fifth contract year or at death, when you start to receive annuity payments and the duration in which they are paid. The accumulation value and the settlement option you select will determine the payment amount.
Period Certain Only Equal monthly payments are guaranteed for a specified period, not less than 10 years and not more than 20 years. After the fifth contract year, you may request a period certain of not less than 5 years and not more than 20 years.
Lifetime Income Only Equal monthly payments for the annuitant’s remaining lifetime. Payments will end with the payment due just before the annuitant’s death. No death benefit is payable with this option. Lifetime Income with Guaranteed Period Certain Equal monthly payments for the greater of the annuitant’s remaining lifetime or a specified period of time. If the annuitant dies after payments have been made for the specified period, payments end with the payment due just before the annuitant’s death.
Death Benefit A death benefit is payable to the annuity’s beneficiary if the owner, or the annuitant, if the owner is not a natural person, dies before the annuity payments begin. The amount payable is equal to the accumulation value or the minimum guaranteed surrender value determined as of the date of death, whichever is greater. If any of the accumulation value is allocated to an indexed account with a 3-year crediting period and the owner passes away during the crediting period, the accumulation value will receive interest credited to the date of death.

DISCLOSURES
Annuity Guarantees - Annuity guarantees rely on the financial strength and claims-paying ability of Atlantic Coast Life Insurance Company. Annuity Differences - Some annuities offer lifetime income as a part of the base contract, and others may offer riders for a charge that provides that benefit. If lifetime income is elected through annuitization on the base contract, the elected rider will terminate, including any benefits provided by the rider. Index Account Interest Rate Calculation - At the end of each crediting period, the index value (ending value) is compared to the index value at the beginning of each crediting period (beginning value). When the ending value is higher than the beginning value, interest is credited to the index account. When the ending value is lower than the beginning value, no interest will be credited. Index Crediting Strategies - Value in the index strategies will grow if the applicable index increases. Your potential earnings are either capped at a maximum interest rate or limited by a certain percentage of the index gain, depending on the terms and conditions of your index strategy. Caps and participation rates are subject to change after the first crediting period. Cap - If you select an index account utilizing a cap, the maximum index interest rate for the crediting period may not be more than the cap. Participation Rate - If you select an index account utilizing a participation rate, the interest rate is equal to the percentage increase in the index value over the crediting period multiplied by the participation rate. Penalty Free Withdrawal - Up to 10% of the Accumulation Value may be withdrawn without any Surrender Charges or Market Value Adjustment starting in year two. The Required Minimum Distribution may be withdrawn without any Surrender Charges or Market Value Adjustment starting in year one. Any distribution may impact future Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit payments. Nursing Home Waiver - Must be confined to a nursing home for a period of at least 90 consecutive days. There is a waiting period of one year. If the owner is confined to a nursing home during the waiting period, this benefit would not be available in certain states. Terminal Illness Waiver - Terminal illness is defined as any medical condition which a physician certifies that the policy owner’s expected life span is twelve months or less. Proof of the terminal illness is required by a certified licensed physician that is not the owner, annuitant, or a family member to the owner or annuitant. The owner cannot be terminally ill during the waiting period. There is a waiting period of one year. Market Value Adjustments - The Market Value Adjustment (MVA) is specified in the contract. The MVA expires at the end of the Surrender Charge Period. Surrender Value - The Surrender Value is subject to Surrender Charges, Market Value Adjustment (MVA), and Minimum Guarantee Surrender Value required by Standard Non-Forfeiture Law.
