If a terminal illness (TI) benefit becomes payable, your life will be amended to reflect the payment. This is because the TI benefit represents an advance payment of the life benefit.

You can apply to increase your standard (not exceeding a combined total of nine units), by applying online through your Member Online account, within 120 days from the date of your welcome letter from NGS Super. IP for people who are incapacitated If the insurer considers you are incapacitated (ie. because you have an accident or become sick), you may receive a monthly income benefit, with payments starting after a specified waiting period. The waiting period is determined by the option you select e.g. for IP3 the waiting period is 90 days. All benefit payments you receive are included in your taxable income. A few things aren t ed IP is not provided if it is caused directly or indirectly by: self-inflicted injury or infection or attempted suicide, whether while sane or insane normal pregnancy or childbirth, or war. Benefits may not be payable if, in the opinion of the insurer, you were employed under a preferential employment practice and you were suffering a medical condition that was likely to cause you to become disabled within three years of the commencement of. Income from other sources may have an effect on your IP benefit Your benefit may be reduced if you receive income from other sources, relating to the period you are incapacitated, such as: paid sick leave, workers compensation, social security benefits or from another source of disability payment any payments you may receive or are due to receive for the same period from another policy providing income benefits that relate to your employment income for the same period from personal exertion (such as related to a graded return to work) any amounts which you continue to receive from your employer while you are incapacitated. IP provides a monthly income payment of up to 80% of your monthly pre-incapacity income (prior to any tax deduction), plus up to 10% of your monthly pre-incapacity income as a super contribution subject to the level of you have paid into your NGS Super account. The monthly payment you receive will be based on your pre-incapacity income, the number of you have and whether you are receiving income from other sources. The insurer may require progress reports over the period that you receive your payments. You may also need to provide further medical evidence or undergo any examinations required by the insurer. NGS SUPER LIFE, DISABILITY AND INCOME PROTECTION 06

IP Example 1) Sonia is age 40 and receives a salary of $85,000 a year. She has seven units Plus IP, and each unit provides for $11,400 of income, which gives her of $79,800 (including 10% super contribution) for up to $88,667 worth of income. This is sufficient to her full annual salary, which means she is eligible for the full 90% IP benefit which provides a monthly income benefit of 80% of her pre-incapacity monthly income plus up to 10% of her pre-incapacity monthly income which will be paid to her NGS Super account. Sonia has a serious car accident and can t work for six months. After expiry of the waiting period, her seven IP provide for a maximum total monthly benefit of $6,375 (90% x $85,000/12) including super. Sonia receives 80% of her pre-incapacity monthly salary as income, which is $5,667 (80% x $85,000/12). The remainder of her total monthly benefit is $708 and this goes into her account with NGS Super as a super contribution. IP Example 2) Justin is age 30 and earns an annual salary of $52,000 and has four units IP (which gives him for a salary of $50,667). He has a skiing accident and injures himself and can t work for six months. Justin s maximum IP benefit will be at the rate of 90% of $50,667, which is $45,600 a year or $3,800 per month. His provides an income at the rate of 80% of $52,000, which is $41,600 a year, or $3,467 a month, after expiry of the waiting period. Life event extra Where a member has existing, they may apply to reduce their benefit payment period or increase their waiting period without having to provide any health information. You may have a life event, such as getting married or buying a house that prompts you to want to make changes to your life, disability and/or income protection. In this case, you have the option to: apply for or to increase by providing evidence of good health, through your Member Online account, or apply to increase your existing, under a life event option, which is subject to certain conditions, timeframes, limits and answering some health questions (depending on responses to these questions further evidence of health may be required). An active employment test applies on the date you apply to increase your. If you do not meet the active employment test, your increase in will be limited. Since the maximum he is entitled to is $45,600 per year, the remaining benefit allows for super contributions of $4,000 a year or $333 a month (in this case, equal to approximately 7.7% of his salary). Since Justin s salary is higher than his IP, his IP benefit works out to be less than 90% of his annual salary approximately 88% in this case. Had he successfully applied for an additional unit of IP, he would have been eligible for the full benefit of 90% of his annual salary (80% income and 10% super). IP Example 3) Tom is age 50 and earns an annual salary of $105,000 and has seven IP, which provides for up to $88,667 of income. Tom is eligible to increase his IP up to nine units, however he decides to stay with his level of. Tom is unable to work for eight months due to illness. While 80% of Tom s actual salary of $105,000 amounts to $7,000 a month, the total monthly benefit his seven provides will be only $6,650 (90% x $88,667/12) including super, after the expiry of the waiting period. In Tom s case, his is not enough to 80% of his preincapacity earnings so he would not be eligible for a superannuation contribution benefit. Had Tom increased his IP to nine units to fully his annual salary he would have been entitled to receive a maximum benefit of $7,875 per month (90% x $105,000/12) including super. Of this amount, $7,000 would have been paid as a monthly income benefit ($84,000 a year) and the remaining $875 would have been available to be paid as 10% monthly super contributions (or $10,500 per year).

age-based life (including terminal illness - TI), disability (TPD) and income protection (IP) When you join NGS Super you are provided (subject to being eligible) with standard insurance for life/ti, disability (TPD) and income protection (with monthly payments for up to five years after a 90-day waiting period). This standard is five for and four for NGS. If you are aged 65 or over but under age 70 when you join, you will only receive for life/ti only. If you would like to apply for nonstandard, you will need to provide evidence of good health. You can do this by applying online through your Member Online account or completing an Insurance Variation form and a Personal Statement available on our website at www.ngssuper.com.au (select Super Members > Forms). Life/TI and Disability (TPD) Example Tom is currently 33 years old and works for an employer in the NGS Plus occupational category. Tom received automatic standard of five life/ti (totalling $570,000) and disability (TPD) (totalling $160,000) when he joined NGS Super, at a cost of $4.17 per week. When Tom turns 34 the total value of his five life/ti and disability (TPD) units will remain the same (based on his age) but his premium will increase to $4.43 per week. How much do you need? In addition to being able to obtain online quotes and apply for through your Member Online account, NGS Super Online Protect provides access to a needs analysis calculator, which only requires basic inputs to provide you with suggested levels. Fixed for life/ti and disability (TPD) The amount of life/ti only, combined life/ TI and disability or disability only fixed will stay at the fixed amount agreed between you and NGS Super and won t decrease as you get older, except for disability which decreases by 20% a year from age 61 to be nil at age 65 (as outlined in Table 6 below). Your life/ti continues at the fixed amount until you reach age 75 (or age 65, if you do not have life/ti to age 75). The cost for fixed will generally increase as you get older. Table 6 Age last birthday Proportion of fixed disability (TPD) that applies to the insured member 60 100% 61 80% 62 60% 63 40% 64 20% 65 Nil Any requests for fixed must be accepted by the insurer and will depend on an assessment by the insurer based upon evidence of your health (if required) and any other requested information. You can choose to have fixed only for life and/or disability benefits in multiples of $10,000. You can also choose to apply for different levels of life/ti and disability. Any application for age-based that exceeds nine units will also be added in the form of fixed units, in $10,000 multiples. A discounted premium generally applies for combined life and disability to any portion above nine units or for fixed. Please note that your requested benefit may be rounded up due to the way level is structured. Cost of fixed The cost for fixed is calculated based on your age at your last birthday, occupation and the amount and type of you have requested. The cost of fixed generally increases as you get older i.e. each year, following your birthday. For more details on the cost of fixed, you can refer to the NGS Super life and disability (TPD) fixed premiums fact sheet. Payment of a terminal illness or disability (TPD) benefit If you receive an insured terminal illness or disability payment to your account, it will be paid into the NGS Super Cash and Term Deposits investment option. You then have the option to switch it into your choice of investment option(s). This will not affect the investment of your other super, which will stay invested in the investment option(s) you have already chosen. Payment of a life benefit In the event of your death, your account balance including the insured portion of the benefit payment will be paid into the NGS Super Cash and Term Deposits investment option until it is paid to your beneficiaries. Action point If your personal circumstances change (for example, you marry, get a divorce, have a baby or buy a house), think about whether your is still enough to protect your changed situation?
