Rider payments may be doubled for up to five years in the event of a chronic illness (up to 50% for joint owners); included at no additional cost.
- No confinement required – two of six activities of daily living (ADLs)
- Also applied to permanent cognitive impairment
- Withdrawals may continue even if the Accumulation Value is depleted
- Approved in all states

Upon spousal continuation of lifetime payments, income continues even if Accumulation Value is depleted

Competitive Rollup Designs

The Benefit Base is equal to all premiums and premium bonuses (if applicable), less withdrawals, compounded at a defined rate, for either 7 or 10 years. The faster the Benefit Base accumulates, the greater the income.
