RETIREMENT INCOME AT MATURITY. The Planholder may, by instructions given to the Trustee, specify the date for the maturity of the Plan and the commencement of a "retirement income" (as defined in subsection 146(1) of the Act) to be paid to the Planholder from the Plan. Such date for maturity shall not be later than the end of the calendar year in which the Planholder attains age 71 (or such other time for maturity as may be required by the Act). Any purchase of an annuity is subject to the terms of the investments under the Plan and the deduction of all proper fees, expenses, commissions and other charges. Payment of a retirement income to the Planholder must be by way of equal annual or more frequent periodic payments until such time as there is a payment in full or partial commutation of the retirement income and, where that commutation is partial, equal annual or more frequent periodic payments thereafter.

A retirement income under the Plan may not be assigned in whole or in part.

Any beneficiary designations, and/or any other pertinent information will be carried over with such transfer. It remains the responsibility of the Planholder to verify beneficiary designations and/or any other information that has been carried over with such transfer. The Trustee may in its discretion liquidate all or part of the Fund before such transfer. Any such liquidation shall be made at such prices as the Trustee shall in its discretion determine to be the fair market value of the assets at the time; in the case of assets which are illiquid or which have no readily ascertainable market value, the Trustee may in its discretio...
RETIREMENT INCOME AT MATURITY. The Plan will mature on a date selected by you (the "Maturity Date") which must not be later than the maturity date provided in the Act. You must advise us in writing, at least 90 days prior to the Maturity Date, of the type of retirement income you elect to receive from the proceeds of the Plan.
