As part of this program, you have professional resources available to you. Please consider taking advantage of our Financial Guidance provided by Voya Financial Advisors, Inc., if you are not already working with a financial professional. Interest rate Your account earns a guaranteed minimum interest rate. 2 Interest is compounded daily and credited monthly to your account. Interest is paid from the day of deposit to the day of withdrawal. 1 As they are drawn on the insurance company and not on a bank, these instruments are technically drafts and not checks. 2 The insurance company that issued the policy from which the lump sum is paid guarantees that the Voya Financial Personal Transition Account balance will earn at least 0.50% annually. Voya Financial may, however, credit the account with a higher rate. The Account Confirmation will state the rate being earned by the account. Accounts established prior to 1/01/2012 will continue to earn at least the guaranteed minimum interest rate of 1.50%. The interest rate guarantee is based on the claims-paying ability of the insurance company. The current credited rate and the guaranteed minimum interest rate are each expressed as an annual percentage yield based on daily compounding. Each day the account accrues an amount of interest that is credited to principal. When annualized, those daily accruals will yield the credited interest rate. The company looks to its general account investments as a source of earnings. The Voya Financial Lifeline Program benefits the company by facilitating the retention of assets in the company s general account, and the company seeks to earn a profit from the Program. The time period over which the company may benefit from amounts payable to a Lifeline s accountholder are within the accountholder s control. An accountholder may choose to draw on the full account balance immediately or maintain all or a portion of his account balance with the Program indefinitely. I 03

The rate of interest is subject to change no more than twice in any twelve-month period and any decrease in the interest rate will not occur less than one year since the last change.

Resource Information I 09

Locating important personal and financial documents It s important to have your personal and financial documents located in a place that s easily accessible in the event of an expected or an unexpected life event. If you haven t already done so, set some time aside to locate important documents. Once you have them on hand, we encourage you to consolidate them in one location, such as a file cabinet, folder or safe-deposit box. Financial documents Insurance policies: life, health, disability, property/casualty, automobile, etc. Savings and checking account books Trust agreements Business agreements Notes payable and receivable Financial statements for stocks, bonds and other investments Income tax returns Earnings records, W-2 forms Credit card accounts Property information Real estate mortgages or rental agreements Property tax information Automobile registration Large purchase installment payment books Personal Records Marriage certificate(s) Birth certificates Social Security numbers Last Will and Testament Death certificate 1 Tip Once you have gathered these documents, create a folder or file (storing in fire safe file is best) for easy access to needed information. 1 A death certificate is needed to establish legal proof of death and establish claims for life insurance, annuity contracts, Social Security benefits, etc. It can be obtained for a nominal fee from the vital statistics office of the city in which the death occurred, or the funeral director may arrange to obtain copies for you. You ll need to submit an original with various claims. It must be certified with a raised or in-color registrar s seal to be valid. Photocopies will not be accepted. 10 I

Keeping your monthly budget current Re-evaluate your budget on a regular basis, but always when a life transition occurs such as the birth of a child, saving for college education, marriage, retirement, or loss of a loved one. Planning your retirement income When planning your retirement budget, you ll need to consider retirement benefits, savings and investments, and perhaps different expenses. When thinking about expenses, consider your dreams do you want to travel or buy that boat you ve always wanted? Don t give up those dreams, but keep a reality check in place. You ll also need to consider potential health care costs. In addition, as you plan for your retirement income, consider when you plan to retire. As a rule of thumb, plan for a longer period in retirement than you might have guessed. Experts tell us that we are living longer than in years past, and may need to have retirement income last 20 or 30 years into the future! We encourage you to consider these facts when planning for your retirement income. I 11

Determine a financial strategy Financial goals and strategies are as diverse as the people considering them. The strategies you choose will depend on your personal status, financial situation, and short and long term goals. We encourage you to discuss your strategies with an experienced financial professional. If you don t have one, call 866.906.1362 option 3 and Voya Financial will direct you to a financial professional who will help you evaluate your needs, and develop a financial strategy that reflects your individual goals. 1 Tip Best practices when approaching financial goals 1. Set measurable goals. 2. Understand the effect your financial decisions have on other financial issues. 3. Re-evaluate your financial goals periodically. 4. Start now don t assume that financial goals should be set when you get older. 5. Start with what you ve got don t assume financial goals are only for the wealthy. 6. Take charge you are in control of your own financial goals. 7. Look at the big picture financial goals are more than just retirement or tax planning. 8. Don t confuse your financial goals with investing. 9. Don t expect unrealistic returns on investments. 10. Don t wait until a money crisis occurs to begin setting your financial goals. When looking for financial advice, stay away from professionals who: Spend little or no time getting to know you and your financial objectives. Guarantee you ll make money on your investments. Play down the risks associated with any investment. Don t clearly explain suggested investment options. Are unclear about their fees and commissions. If ever in doubt, seek a second opinion and don t commit to anything. 1 Securities and investment advisory services offered through various Broker/Dealers including Voya Financial Advisors, (member SIPC). 12 I

Loss of a loved one There is no more difficult transition than when a loved one dies. Amid the many emotions you may experience after the loss of a spouse or parent, close relative or friend, you may also feel overwhelmed by pressing financial and legal matters. If you ve experienced the death of a loved one, do what s best for you. Experts advise not to make any major decisions about financial matters too soon after the loss of a loved one. We encourage you to give yourself time to gather information and evaluate your options. Ask for help and make informed decisions that are in your best long-term interest. Beware of fraud schemes Consumers lose billions of dollars each year to those who prey on vulnerable individuals who may be struggling with grief. You ll want to be particularly cautious about the risk of being a victim of a fraud scheme, such as mail and phone solicitations for money or collections for products or home repairs supposedly purchased by your loved one. Don t accept responsibility for these payments until you have verified the alleged transactions. Tip Identity fraud Identity fraud is devastating and harmful it may take months, if not years, to clear your record(s). Be careful who has access to your information, including your Social Security number, credit card numbers, etc. Always verify who you are dealing with, especially on the phone, and provide your Social Security number only if it s required by law. When in doubt, ask to have a form mailed to you. We encourage you to do what s best for you take the time you need to explore your options. Signature For your own protection, sign all documents in the same manner. This includes the use of your middle initial. Many institutions will delay or reject your request if your signature does not match other documents in their records. When in doubt about the legitimacy of a vendor, contact your local Better Business Bureau or local consumer protection agency. I 13

Privacy It s important to understand how your personal information is used or shared with others. We encourage you to review companies written privacy notices. If the notice isn t clear, you have the right to talk to that company s representative familiar with consumers rights under the Gramm-Leach Bliley Act. Voya Financial takes your privacy very seriously. We share a commitment to protect your privacy and the confidentiality of your personal and financial information. For your convenience, Voya Financial s Privacy Promise is included in this booklet, and will also be mailed to you on an annual basis. Benefits you are eligible for Upon reviewing your personal and financial documents, you ll be able to determine what possible benefits you are eligible for. While exact benefits vary by individual, typically they include the following: Health insurance If your loved one carried health insurance, you (or a personal representative) may file a claim for any medical bills associated with the care they received before death. It is wise to submit claims as soon as possible. Retirement plans You may have been identified as a beneficiary of a retirement plan, such as a pension plan, 401(k), tax-deferred 403(b) annuity or an individual retirement account (IRA or SEP-IRA). If so, you ll need to contact the employer, plan administrator or an insurance company representative for more information. Ordinarily you ll be taxed on income you receive from these plans. Because taxation is complex, we encourage you to consult a financial professional before you request payment. Life insurance and annuity contracts If you were named the beneficiary of a life insurance policy or a taxdeferred annuity, you ll need to submit a claim form and an official copy of the death certificate to the insurance company. Although you should always consider tax implications when selecting a settlement option, it s especially important to do so in the case of annuities. 14 I

Employer benefits Your loved one s employer can help you determine if you re eligible for any survivor s benefits. In addition to helping you file a life or health insurance claim, they can determine your loved one s level of participation in the company credit union or profit sharing plan, whether you re eligible for unpaid income, commissions, accrued vacation time, etc. You also want to ask about whether you or your dependents qualify for continued participation in health plans or other family coverages. Membership or affiliated organizations benefits Please check if your loved one carried additional life insurance through a union, service organization, or professional association. In some cases, these organizations may return unused portions of annual dues. Creditor benefits Contact your credit card companies to find out if you have credit life insurance, which pays off credit card account balances in the event of the death of a customer. If your loved one was disabled before death, you should check to see if you have credit disability insurance for which a claim can be filed. Social services and charitable organization benefits If your loss presents an immediate financial crisis, you may want to contact the Red Cross for emergency needs or your local social services department for support and referral. In some cases, churches, social organizations or business clubs establish hardship funds for members families. Veteran benefits If your loved one was a veteran, you may be eligible for veteran s benefits. Eligibility varies depending on whether or not the death was due to a service-related cause, but may include lump sum death benefits, burial expenses, financial aid for education, or other possible survivor s benefits. Often the funeral director will notify the Department of Veterans Affairs to request a claim form for you, but you may also contact the nearest DVA directly. I 15

Social security benefits Many people think of Social Security as a retirement program. However, retirement benefits are just one part of the Social Security program. When someone who has worked and paid into Social Security dies, survivor benefits can be paid to certain family members. These include widows, widowers (and divorced widows and widowers), children, and dependent parents. You should apply for survivor s benefits promptly because, in some cases, benefits may not be retroactive. You can apply by telephone or at any Social Security office. As you adjust to the loss of a loved one and proceed with the healing process, don t be afraid to ask for support. A variety of individuals and organizations offer support, information and guidance. Your doctor, clergy or attorney may be able to suggest local resources. Tip Social Security doesn t start automatically. You must apply. 16 I

Keep a list of your key advisors for information resources Attorney An attorney can provide advice on specific legal issues, including disposition of property, stocks and bonds, business assets, transferring titles of ownership, estate planning, trusts, and wills, etc. Legal rules apply to transferring property of all kinds from an estate, and certain taxes may apply to these transfers.
