Contract Value The accumulated value, using guaranteed interest rates, at the end of each Contract Year (assuming no withdrawals), prior to receiving annuity payments. It is also the amount available upon the Owner's death, if it occurs before the annuity payments begin. The Death Benefit is not affected by withdrawal charges. Contract Withdrawal Value with Withdrawal Charge The amount available at the end of each year if you surrender the Contract after deduction of any Withdrawal Charge. Withdrawal charges are applied to Contract Value according to the schedule below until the withdrawal charge period ends. State variations may apply, please check your Product Detail Sheet for more information.

For the purposes of this Illustration, the Company's current initial base interest rate (without the bonus) is used to calculate the Illustrated Values after the end of the interest Guaranteed Rate Period. The actual renewal interest rates will very likely NOT be the same as the illustrated renewal interest rates. Guaranteed Interest Rate The rate of interest shown is an annual rate which is credited daily based on the Contract Value. Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit The Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit upon the Owner's death is the Contract Value. Withdrawals 10% of the beginning-of-year Contract Value after the first Contract Year can be withdrawn each year without incurring Withdrawal Charges, except in any year where a full surrender occurs. If you withdraw an amount in excess of the Free Withdrawal amount, you may be subject to Withdrawal Charges. Withdrawals of taxable amounts are subject to ordinary income tax and may be subject to a 10% federal tax penalty if taken before age 59½. Withdrawals will also reduce the Death Benefit and Contract Withdrawal Value. Current Interest Rate Current Interest Crediting Rates are declared by Forethought Life Insurance Company. Interest rates are shown as annual rates with daily crediting.

Hypothetical Illustration: Important Information Guarantees are backed by the financial strength and claims paying ability of Forethought Life Insurance Company. This information is written in connection with the promotion or marketing of the matter(s) addressed in this material. The information cannot be used or relied upon for the purpose of avoiding IRS penalties. These materials are not intended to provide tax, accounting or legal advice. As with all matters of a tax or legal nature, you should consult your tax or legal counsel for advice. All riders are subject to state and firm approval and variations. Taxable distributions (including certain deemed distributions) are subject to ordinary income taxes, and if made prior to age 591/2 may also be subject to a 10% federal income tax penalty. Distributions received from a non-qualified contract are taxable to the extent of the income on the contract, and to the extent of untaxed investment income on the funds used to purchase the contract. Payments from IRAs are taxable in accordance with the normal rules surrounding taxation of payments from an IRA. Early surrender charges may also apply. Withdrawals may reduce the death benefit and any optional guaranteed amounts in an amount more than the actual withdrawal. This Illustration does not take into consideration the potential withdrawal of RMDs that may be associated with a contract issued as an IRA. RMDs from an IRA annuity during the Owner's lifetime, not taken in the form of irrevocably elected annuity payments, are calculated by dividing the value of the annuity contract as of the last day of the preceding year by life expectancy factors established by the IRS. Distributions from traditional Individual Retirement Accounts ( IRA ) are required for each year following the year in which the Owner reaches age 70 ½. Failure to take RMDs may result in a 50% penalty on the amount of required distribution not taken, and the penalty does not relieve the Owner of the responsibility to withdraw the required amount for that year. No RMD is required during lifetime of the Owner of a Roth IRA. Distributions from one IRA may be able to satisfy the RMDs associated with another IRA. Please consult with an attorney, financial advisor, or qualified tax advisor concerning these matters. If you are investing in a deferred annuity through a tax-advantaged retirement plan such as an IRA, you will receive no additional tax advantage from an annuity. Under these circumstances, you should only consider buying an annuity if it makes sense because of the annuity s other features, such as principal protection or lifetime income payments.
