Policy filed with the insurance company issuing the Policy.
7. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any
time upon the mutual agreement of the parties hereto.

totally surrendered or canceled by the Owner.
b. The right to be repaid from the death benefit

and such loan or partial surrender causes the net cash surrender
value of the Policy to be a sum less than the Amount Due Company.

Insurer giving prior written notice to Owner of the proposed
payment of amounts to the Assignee, the receipt of the Assignee
for any sums received by it shall be a full discharge and release
therefore to the Insurer.
6. The Insurer shall be fully protected in recognizing a
request made by the Owner for surrender or cancellation of the
Policy, in whole or in part, or in recognizing a request made by
the Owner for any loans against the Policy permitted by the terms
of the Policy. In the event this request is made, upon prior
written notice thereof to the Assignee the Insurer may pay the
proceeds of any surrender, cancellation, or loan to the sole order
of the Owner, or as the Owner shall direct.
7. Upon the full payment of the liabilities of the Owner to
the Assignee pursuant to the Agreement, the Assignee shall execute

request made by the Owner for surrender or cancellation of the
Policy, in whole or in part, or in recognizing a request made by
the Owner for any loans against the Policy permitted by the terms
of the Policy. In the event this request is made, upon prior
written notice thereof to the Assignee the Insurer may pay the
proceeds of any surrender, cancellation, or loan to the sole order
of the Owner, or as the Owner shall direct.
7. Upon the full payment of the liabilities of the Owner to

regulations thereunder), or any similar provision of subsequent
law. All provisions of this Collateral Assignment (and of the
Agreement) shall be construed and exercised so as to effect this
intention.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Owner and Assignee have executed this
Assignment and the Insurer has acknowledged its acceptance of this
