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 paid the present value of the current dollar amount of the then remaining annuity payments in a lump sum. Joint and Survivor Annuity (Option F-3) We will make fixed annuity payments while the Annuitant and joint Annuitant are living and during the survivor’s remaining lifetime. Based on your selection, payments may have no guaranteed period or may have a guaranteed period for any number of full years between 1 and 30. If you select a guaranteed period, the length of the guaranteed period must be elected prior to receiving any annuity payments, and cannot exceed the joint life expectancy of the Annuitants. When the Annuitant or the joint Annuitant dies, payments based on a percentage of the payment in effect while both were living will continue for the lifetime of the survivor. The percentage may be any percentage between 5% and 100%. The percentage must be elected prior to receiving the first annuity payment. If both the Annuitant and joint Annuitant die before the end of any guaranteed period, we will pay the balance of the payments for the remainder of that period, unless you elect to be paid the present value of the current dollar amount of the then remaining annuity payments in a lump sum.
ANNUITY OPTIONS The following Annuity Options are available under this Contract. Additional options may become available in the future:
Starting Date Unless a specific (fixed) starting date is duly justified and agreed upon during the preparation of the Grant Agreement, the project will start on the first day of the month following the entry info force of the Grant Agreement (NB : entry into force = signature by the Commission). Please note that if a fixed starting date is used, you will be required to provide a detailed justification on a separate note.
Surviving Spouse The term "Surviving Spouse" shall mean the person, if any, who shall be legally married to the Executive on the date of the Executive's death.
Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity An immediate annuity for the life of the Participant with a survivor annuity for the life of the spouse which is not less than 50% and not more than 100% of the amount of the annuity which is payable during the joint lives of the Participant and the spouse and which is the amount of benefit which can be purchased with the Participant's vested account balance. The percentage of the survivor annuity under the Plan shall be 50% (unless a different percentage is elected by the Employer in the Adoption Agreement).
JOINT AND SURVIVOR ANNUITY The Advisory Committee must direct the Trustee to distribute a married or unmarried Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in the form of a qualified joint and survivor annuity, unless the Participant makes a valid waiver election (described in Section 6.05) within the 90 day period ending on the annuity starting date. If, as of the annuity starting date, the Participant is married, a qualified joint and survivor annuity is an immediate annuity which is purchasable with the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit and which provides a life annuity for the Participant and a survivor annuity payable for the remaining life of the Participant's surviving spouse equal to 50% of the amount of the annuity payable during the life of the Participant. If, as of the annuity starting date, the Participant is not married, a qualified joint and survivor annuity is an immediate life annuity for the Participant which is purchasable with the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit. On or before the annuity starting date, the Advisory Committee, without Participant or spousal consent, must direct the Trustee to pay the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in a lump sum, in lieu of a qualified joint and survivor annuity, in accordance with Section 6.01, if the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit is not greater than $3,500. This Section 6.04(A) applies only to a Participant who has completed at least one Hour of Service with the Employer after August 22, 1984.
