Partial withdrawals are permitted at any time (subject to applicable Surrender Charges).  In certain situations, most Contracts also allow Penalty-free Withdrawals up to a stated maximum amount.  Individual contracts forms define these limits.

Most Contracts allow some form of partial Penalty-free 
Withdrawal after the first Contract Anniversary.  This 
generally amounts to 10% of the Contract Value once each year.  It is also Company practice to permit first year withdrawals for IRS minimum distribution rules (qualified plans) or of interest earned up to 10% of Contract Value penalty-free.  Any Penalty-free Withdrawal made within 12 months of a full Surrender has Surrender Charges recovered.  This procedure varies by product and by contract.  See specific disclosure forms for details. 

Through the Company’s special Systematic Withdrawal service, they process partial withdrawals on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual mode.  This feature may be used to distribute interest only, a fixed amount, a fixed percentage of the Contract Value or the IRS minimum distribution amount for qualified plans.

Annual Statement of Value is provided at least once a year showing all transaction activity and values.  

Normally, annuitization benefits are based on the Contract Value at the Maturity Date and on the Cash Surrender Value before the Maturity Date.  It is Company practice to apply the Contract Value if a life expectancy option is chosen or if the Settlement Option is at least two times the number of remaining Surrender Charge years, subject to the Contract’s minimum payout period.  This Company practice does not apply to Contracts with fixed Maturity Dates, is not guaranteed, is subject to change and varies by contract form.
