38 38 John Doe, M.D. -A/R represents primary practice asset -Doctor is well aware of potential exposure to malpractice liability claims -loss of A/R potentially economically disastrous

39 39 A/R size and potential malpractice liability generate a concern for Dr. Doe How may this asset be protected?

40 40 Potential Solution financing the A/R subject to a perfected first lien placing loan proceeds into a life insurance product

41 41 Mechanics Third party lender makes loan to practice & takes A/R as collateral From loan proceeds, practice makes a distribution to Dr. Doe Dr. Doe purchases life insurance, max funded, minimum death benefit, non-modified endowment Policy pledge serves as additional loan collateral

42 42 Loan is structured to either: pay each recurring scheduled premium, or one loan is made and held in a premium deposit fund and disbursed as needed Policy is typically structured for 3 or 5 consecutive annual premiums Dr. Doe, through his practice, pays interest only on outstanding loan balance

43 43 Practice maintains loan arrangement for as long as desired, until death, retirement, or other exit Doctor repays loan upon exit, lender releases the perfected lien against the A/R & the assignment of the policy
