10 PRODUCT ANALYSIS Product Type: Indexed Life Lowest Premium Lowest Premium Payments Policy Flexibility Ability to alter premium or death benefit Coverage Duration Guarantees Guaranteed Length of Coverage Premium Guarantees Guaranteed Premium Payments Cash Accumulation Building Substantial Cash Value within the Policy Color Key: The Product Type has the desired features The Product Type can produce the desired features The Product Type does not have the desired features Equity Index Universal Life Advantages Disadvantages Not currently registered with the SEC even though returns are Premium flexibility based upon the returns of stock market indices Adjustable death benefit Growth is driven by derivatives Credited return excludes any dividends, which have Unbundled product structure where historically made up 40% of the total return of the S&P 500 pricing components are disclosed Index May require a substantial waiting period to benefit from growth Carrier can limit upside potential through manipulation of caps and participation rates Cash values subject to claims of insurance company creditors Policy meets some design parameters

11 PRODUCT ALTERNATIVES Universal Life with Secondary Guarantees Advantages Disadvantages Lowest guaranteed premium Generally little or no cash values due to high expense loads Premium flexibility, but changes If carrier solvency concerns arise, little cash value available to assist may impact guarantees in a Section 1035 exchange to a different carrier Little upside potential from non-guaranteed elements Cash values subject to claims of insurance company creditors Not available at older ages Variable Universal Life with Guarantees Advantages All expenses are described in prospectus Client controls investment direction of cash values Upside performance potential could be used to abbreviate premium payments, increase death benefit or allow access to policy cash values Policy cash values held in separate account give maximum protection with carrier insolvency Guarantees provide assurance of death benefit coverage Disadvantages Client at risk for having to pay a higher premium Volatility of equities may impact insurance expenses due to changes in net amount at risk Requires client sophistication and commitment to policy management Guarantees are typically more expensive than Universal Life
