|
Charges for Early Withdrawals
|
If you surrender or partially surrender (withdraw money from) your Policy during the first 14 Policy Years or within 14 years after any increase in coverage, a surrender charge of up to 5.769% of Specified
Amount will be deducted. You will also pay a partial surrender processing fee of $25 for each partial surrender.
For example, if you purchased a Policy with a Specified Amount of $100,000, and were to surrender the Policy during the surrender charge period, you would be assessed a maximum charge of $5,769 on the amount surrendered.

|
Transaction Charges
|
In addition to surrender charges, you may be charged for other transactions such as making premium payments, requesting additional illustrations after the first in a Policy Year, and for additional transfers
when you complete more than 12 transfers during a Policy Year.

Ongoing Fees and Expenses (Annual Charges)
|
In addition to surrender charges and transaction charges, an investment in the Policy is subject to certain ongoing fees and expenses, including fees and expenses covering the cost of insurance under the
Policy, administrative, mortality and expense risk, loan charges and the cost of optional benefits available under the Policy. Such fees and expenses are set based on either a fixed rate or the characteristics of the insured (e.g., age,
sex, and rating classification). Investors should view the data pages of their Policy for applicable rates.
Investing in the Subaccounts will also incur expenses associated with the Portfolios, as shown in the following table.

Not a Short-Term Investment
|
This Policy is not designed for short-term investing and is not appropriate for an investor who needs ready access to cash. You will pay a surrender charge on surrenders and partial surrenders within the first 14 Policy Years or within 14 years after any increase in coverage. You may be subject to adverse tax consequences if you surrender the Policy or make a partial surrender. Partial surrenders will also increase the risk of Policy lapse.
The tax deferral benefit is more beneficial to investors with a long time horizon.

Risks Associated with Investment Options
|
Investment in the Policy is subject to the risk of poor investment performance and can vary depending on the performance of each of the Subaccounts. The Subaccounts and the Fixed Account each have their own
unique risks. You should review all of the investment options before making an investment decision.

|
Policy Lapse
|
Your Policy will lapse (terminate without value) if there is insufficient value remaining in the Policy to cover the charges due at the end of the grace period while the Primary Insured is alive. This may occur due to insufficient Premiums, poor investment performance, partial surrenders, unpaid Policy loans, and accrued loan interest. However, We guarantee to keep
the Policy in force during the first five years of the Policy as long as you meet a Premium requirement.
If your Policy lapses, you may reinstate it within three years after the end of the grace period while the Primary Insured is alive. Reinstatement must meet certain conditions, including the payment of the
required Premium and proof of insurability.
Death Benefits will not be paid if the Policy has lapsed.

Optional Benefits

Supplemental and/or rider benefits can be added to your Policy. We will deduct any monthly charges for these benefits and/or riders from your Policy Value as part of the Monthly Deduction. We may change or
stop offering a supplemental and/or rider benefit at any time. We also offer the option to take loans from your Policy. The maximum loan amount (Preferred and Non-Preferred) at any time may not exceed 90% of your Policy’s Surrender Value.
The maximum Preferred Loan amount is the amount your Surrender Value exceeds your premium payments. We charge interest on loans.

TAXES

|
Tax Implications
|
We encourage you to consult your own tax adviser to determine the tax implications of an investment in and payments received under the Policy.
There are no additional tax advantages to the investor if the Policy was purchased through an individual retirement account (IRA) or Roth IRA. Any gain on your Policy is
taxed at ordinary income tax rates when withdrawn, and you may have to pay a penalty tax if you take a withdrawal before age 59 ½.
If your Policy becomes a Modified Endowment Contract (MEC), loans, withdrawals and surrenders, and other pre-death distributions will be taxed as ordinary income to the extent such amounts represent earnings under the Policy. For this
purpose, any partial withdrawals, surrenders and loans are considered first a distribution of earnings under the Policy, and when earnings are fully distributed, a distribution of the Owner’s investment in the Policy. You may also have to
pay a penalty tax if you take a distribution before you reach age 59½.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
|
|
|
Investment Professional Compensation
|
All commissions that were payable with respect to the Policies have been paid, and no commissions are or will become payable to the current principal underwriter, Sunset Financial Services, Inc. (the
“Distributor”), or to the former principal underwriter, American Family Securities, LLC, or their respective registered representatives with respect to the Policies. The Distributor receives a portion of the 12b-1 fees deducted from
certain funds’ portfolio assets as reimbursement for providing certain services permitted under the 12b-1 plans of those portfolios.
When the Policy was offered to new purchasers, commissions were paid to broker-dealers for the sale of Policies. In addition, we may have paid an asset-based commission or other amounts in certain
circumstances. These investment professionals may have had a financial incentive to offer or recommend the Policy over another investment.
Reference “Sale of the Policies” and “The Variable Account and the Portfolios – Portfolio Management Fees and Charges”
|
|
Exchanges
|
Some broker-dealers may have a financial incentive to offer you a new policy in place of your current Policy. You should replace (exchange) your current Policy only if you determine, after comparing the
features, fees, and risks of both policies, and any fees or penalties to terminate your current Policy, that the new policy is better for you, rather than continuing to own your current policy.
