P.O. Box 64284, St. Paul, MN 55164 (800) 800-2638 woodburyfinancial.com Client Acknowledgement GENERAL PRODUCT KNOWLEDGE ALL TRANSACTIONS My Advisor and I have discussed the following features: I/We understand any change in internal contract expenses and are aware of a new surrender period. I/We understand that a variable annuity is intended to be a long-term investment. A Variable Annuity is a contract between you and an insurance company in which the insurer agrees to make periodic payments to you in an amount that will be linked to the performance of underlying investments either beginning immediately or at some future date. You can purchase a Variable Annuity by either making a single purchase payment or a series of purchase payments. A Variable Annuity offers a range of investment options, typically referred to as sub-accounts. These sub-accounts invest in stocks, bonds, money market instruments, or some combination of the three. The value of your investment as a Variable Annuity owner will vary depending on the performance of the sub-accounts you choose. There is a risk that you will lose money. If applicable, state replacement paperwork has been completed. I/We understand the tax deferral feature of this annuity is negated if the purchase/replacement is in a qualified plan account. I/We understand that the Internal Revenue Service may assess a penalty of 10% on either principal or interest if withdrawn prior to age 59½. This account is not currently making distributions pursuant to IRC Section 72(t) or this is a full transfer and I/we have complied with the requirements of the annuity company receiving the transfer. The IRS does not permit moving assets that are under 72(t) systematic distributions, also known as SES distributions via Partial Transfers. BONUS ANNUITIES Special consideration should be given when electing a bonus variable annuity. You may incur additional fees, surrender periods, and/or other added stipulations in order to counterbalance the cost of offering the bonus credit. Additionally, FINRA has indicated in multiple communications that a bonus on premium payments may not be considered an offset against any other fees or expenses, including surrender charges applied to the replaced product. My Advisor and I have discussed the following features: I/We understand charges and fees may be higher on bonus products. In the long term, higher expenses may outweigh the benefit of the bonus credit resulting in lower contract values for bonus annuities vs. non-bonus annuities. I/ We understand that the insurance company may deduct the bonus credit under certain circumstances, such as if I/we exercise the free look option, annuitize the contract, surrender the contract, or incur a death claim within a specified time period. I/ We understand how the bonus credit is applied to my contract value as well as any stipulations towards withdrawals, vesting schedules, sub-account/market participation, and/or any additional surrender schedules involved. LIVING BENEFITS Can often present additional options and features to variable annuities typically at an increased cost. Living benefits should not be chosen simply as a guarantee alone, but rather chosen as an enhancement to the annuity that matches particular income objectives, investment concerns, and/or portfolio intentions of the investor. My Advisor and I have discussed the following features: I/We understand that a long-term investment objective may be needed to utilize the living benefit feature and that I/we should not consider this a way to provide an immediate guaranteed return of investment. I/We understand any effects (and/or restrictions) the living benefit rider may have on sub-account allocation choices. I/We understand how any/all excess withdrawals and/or annuitization will affect my/our guaranteed benefit base amount. (For Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit) I/we understand the enhanced rider only provides additional benefit by taking a specified withdrawal amount each year and only when the contract value is depleted. I/We understand any withdrawals from my/our annuity will be taxed (above cost basis) at the ordinary income tax rate as opposed to the capital gains rate of mutual funds or other equity investments. (For Guaranteed Minimum Income Benefit) I/We understand the enhanced benefit may only provide value if my/our contract is annuitized (structured payment stream), therefore losing access to my/our investment. DEATH BENEFITS Can be used to enhance estate planning and/or offer controlled payouts to beneficiaries. An enhanced death benefit should be chosen to match the investment concerns and portfolio objectives of the investor with the intention of accumulating value for beneficiaries rather than personal use. My Advisor and I have discussed the following features: I/We have been made aware of any applicable commencement dates (i.e., forced annuitization) that may negate the enhanced death benefit feature. I/We understand the maximum age at which my/our benefit base will be adjusted and the continuation of expenses thereafter. I/We understand how any/all withdrawals affect and/or limit the death benefit value. I/We understand choosing a living benefit may offset or counteract with the enhanced death benefit. I/We understand any effects (and/or restrictions) the enhanced death benefit may have on sub-account allocation choices. I/We understand that the tax liability on accumulated income will be passed on to beneficiaries at their ordinary income tax rate. 102554 04/13 Woodbury Financial Services, Inc.
