Annuity Payments. If the Annuitant is living and this contract is in force on the Annuity Commencement Date, based on the election we have on record we will begin to make annuity payments under one of the payout options below or any other payout option we make available. You may elect for payments to be made monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually or any other frequency that we make available. If no election is made as of the Annuity Commencement Date, payments will be made monthly under Fixed Annuity Payout Option F-2 with a guaranteed period of 10 years. If annuity payout option F-3 is chosen, you must select a joint Annuitant prior to the Annuity Commencement Date. All annuity payments are based on: • the age and sex (if a Non-Qualified Contract) of the Annuitant at the birthday nearest the Annuity Commencement Date; • the Accumulation Value on the Annuity Commencement Date less any annuity taxes; • the annuity payout option elected; and • the annuity payout frequency. Payee Unless you request otherwise, the payee of any annuity payments will be the first among the following who is living at the time the payment is to be made: • any surviving Owner or joint Owner; if none then • any surviving Primary Beneficiary; if none then • any surviving Contingent Beneficiary. If no payees are living and a guaranteed period has not ended, the present value of any remaining payments will be paid to the estate of the last remaining payee. Annuity Payout Options You may elect to receive annuity payments from one of the following options or any other option we make available. Unless stated otherwise, once annuity payments begin you may not change the Annuitant, payout option, guaranteed period or, in the case of option F-3, the survivor percentage. Life Annuity without Guaranteed Period (Option F-1) We will make fixed annuity payments during the lifetime of the Annuitant. We do not guarantee a minimum number of annuity payments under this option. Payments stop once the Annuitant dies. Life Annuity with Guaranteed Period (Option F-2) We will make fixed annuity payments during the lifetime of the Annuitant. Payments are guaranteed for any number of full years between 1 and 30. The length of the guaranteed period must be elected prior to receiving any annuity payments, and cannot exceed the life expectancy of the Annuitant. If the Annuitant dies before the end of the guaranteed period, we will pay the balance of the payments for the remainder of that period, unless you elect to be pa...
Annuity Payments. Annuity Payments will commence on the Annuity Payment Date. Payments are made under the Annuity Payment Option selected (see Section 8.02).
Annuity Payments. GENERAL Benefits payable under this Contract may be applied in accordance with one or more of the Annuity Options described below, subject to any restrictions of Internal Revenue Code sections 401(a)(9) and 408(b)(3). If guaranteed payments are to be made, the period over which the guaranteed payments are made may not exceed the period permitted under Section 1.401(a)(9)-6 of the Income Tax Regulations. Once Annuity Payments commence, the Annuity Option may not be changed. We will send you information about Annuity Options before the Annuity Commencement Date. If by the Maturity Date, you do not choose an Annuity Option, make a total withdrawal of the Surrender Value, or ask us to change the Maturity Date, we will automatically pay you Annuity Payments under the Annuity Option shown on the Specifications Page and the Annuity Commencement Date is considered to be the Maturity Date. You can change the Annuity Option at any time before Annuity Payments commence. You may select a Fixed or Variable Annuity. We will provide variable Annuity Payments unless otherwise elected. Once Annuity Payments commence, the Annuity Option may not be changed. The method used to calculate the amount of the initial and subsequent Annuity Payments is described below. If the monthly income is less than $20, we may pay the greater of the Contract Value or the commuted value of the Lifetime Income Benefit in one lump sum on the Maturity Date, or the Annuity Commencement Date if earlier. VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS We will determine the amount of the first variable Annuity Payment by applying the portion of the Contract Value used to effect a Variable Annuity (minus any applicable premium taxes) to the Annuity Option elected based on the mortality table and assumed interest rate shown on the Specifications Page. We will provide a table of the annuity factors upon request. If the current rates in use by us on the Annuity Commencement Date are more favorable to you, we will use the current rates. The portion of the Contract Value used to effect a Variable Annuity will be measured as of a date not more than 10 business days prior to the Annuity Commencement Date. Subsequent payments will be based on the investment performance of the Investment Options you elected. The amount of each subsequent variable Annuity Payment is determined by multiplying the number of Annuity Units credited for each Investment Option you elect by the appropriate Annuity Unit value on each subsequent determination...
Annuity Payments. The Annuity Option is shown on page 3. The Owner may choose any form of Annuity Option that is allowed by the Company. The Owner may choose an Annuity Option by written request. This request must be Received by the Company at least 30 days prior to the Annuity Payout Date. Several Annuity Options are listed on pages 18 and 19. No Annuity Option can be selected that requires the Company to make periodic payments of less than $20.00. If no Annuity Option is chosen prior to the Annuity Payout Date, the Company will use the Life with 10-Year Fixed Period Option. Each Annuity Option allows for making Annuity Payments annually, semiannually, quarterly or monthly. CHANGE OF ANNUITY OPTION Prior to the Annuity Payout Date, the Owner may change the Annuity Option chosen. The Owner must request the change in writing. This request must be Received by the Company at least 30 days prior to the Annuity Payout Date.
Annuity Payments. Annuitizations under the terms of the Base Annuities will be treated as surrenders. The Reinsurer will reimburse the Ceding Company for Annuity Payments equal to the quota share percentage of the Annuities times the Cash Surrender Values of such Annuities as of the date of such annuitization. The Reinsurer will reimburse the Ceding Company for payments made pursuant to Rider guarantees as described in Paragraph 6 above.
Annuity Payments. An election to receive payments under an Annuity Payment Option must be made before the Maturity Date. If an Annuity Payment Option is not chosen before the Maturity Date, payments will commence to the Owner on the Maturity Date under the Annuity Payment Option which provides a life annuity with annuity payments guaranteed for 10 years. The Maturity Date may be deferred upon request (either in writing or through the Internet Service Center) by the Owner and any Beneficiary who cannot be changed. Purchase Payments may be made until the new Maturity Date.
Annuity Payments. The amount of the Withdrawal Charge depends on how long your Purchase Payments are held under the Contract. Each Purchase Payment you make is considered to have a certain "age," depending on the length of time since that Purchase Payment was effective. A Purchase Payment is "age one" in the year beginning on the date the purchase payment is Received by FSBL and increases in age each year thereafter. When you withdraw an amount, the "age" of any Purchase Payment you withdraw determines the level(s) of Withdrawal Charge as shown on page 3. For the purpose of calculating Withdrawal Charge, FSBL assumes that withdrawal amounts will be applied to Purchase Payments first in the order Purchase Payments were received. The Withdrawal Charge will be deducted proportionately from each Account selected for Withdrawal. This charge is guaranteed not to increase. FREE WITHDRAWALS During a Contract Year, you may make Free Withdrawals, which are Withdrawals that are not subject to the Withdrawal Charge. The amount of Free Withdrawals available in any Contract Year is determined as follows. In the first Contract Year, the amount is equal to:
Annuity Payments. The series of payments made to the Certificate Owner or any named payee after the Annuity Date under the Annuity Option selected. ANNUITY PERIOD: The period of time beginning with the Annuity Date during which Annuity Payments are made.
Annuity Payments. This contract provides for Annuity Payments. How Annuity Payments Begin You may begin Annuity Payments by providing an Authorized Request. If you do not begin Annuity Payments before the Scheduled Annuity Date, we will begin Annuity Payments on the Scheduled Annuity Date if the Contract Value on that date is greater than zero. You may request a later Annuity Date by providing an Authorized Request at least 30 days before the Annuity Date. Your requested Annuity Date must be on an Index Anniversary, is subject to our approval and cannot be earlier than two years after the Issue Date or later than the last Annuity Date permitted by applicable state or federal law. We make Annuity Payments according to the Annuity Option and payment frequency you select. You can select a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual payment frequency. We send Annuity Payments to the Payee. For Annuity Payments to begin, we may require that Annuity Payments be greater than or equal to the Minimum Annuity Payment shown on the Contract Schedule. If the Annuity Payments would not be greater than or equal to the Minimum Annuity Payment, we reserve the right to require you to take a Full Withdrawal and your contract will then terminate. If you do not select an Annuity Option or payment frequency before the Annuity Date, we will make monthly Annuity Payments, according to Option 2 – Life Annuity with a 10-year guaranteed period. We may require proof of the Age and gender of an Annuitant before making any Annuity Payments. During the Annuity Phase, you cannot change the Annuity Option or the payment frequency. If a sole Owner dies during the Annuity Phase, and we are still required to make Annuity Payments under the terms of the selected Annuity Option, the Beneficiary(ies) becomes the Owner(s) of this contract. If a Joint Owner dies during the Annuity Phase, and we are still required to make Annuity Payments under the terms of the selected Annuity Option, the surviving Joint Owner becomes the sole Owner of this contract. Any remaining payments will continue at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution in effect at such Owner's death. How we calculate Annuity Payments We calculate Annuity Payments on the Annuity Date using the Contract Value and current purchase rates for the Annuity Option you select. Current purchase rates cannot be less than the rates in the Guaranteed Purchase Rate Table shown on the Contract Schedule. The guaranteed purchase rates are based on the Annuit...
Annuity Payments. The term “Annuity Payments,” as used in this Agreement, shall mean (i) periodic payments made by the Ceding Company in the event that an Annuity annuitizes and (ii) the statutory reserve for an Annuity with a guaranteed withdrawal benefit that reaches zero. In the event that an Annuity annuitizes, the Reinsurer shall pay to the Ceding Company the Quota Share Percentage of each resulting Annuity Payment. In the event that the account balance of an Annuity with a guaranteed withdrawal benefit reaches zero, the Ceding Company will establish a payout annuity for the remaining benefit and the Reinsurer shall pay to the Ceding Company an amount equal to the Quota Share Percentage of the statutory reserve for that Annuity. The Reinsurer shall have no further obligation or liability with respect to any such annuitized Annuities.
