Income Benefit

 

Pacific Index Income includes a built-in additional benefit, Lifetime Income Creator, which can provide guaranteed lifetime income beginning at age 59½.

 

Lifetime Income Creator

Lifetime Income Creator is built into a Pacific Index Income contract and provides guaranteed withdrawals for life, regardless of the amount of interest that is earned on the contract. It also provides opportunities to increase retirement income through an Annual Deferral Credit, which allows your client's withdrawal percentage to increase each year the client waits to take income for up to 20 years.  This credit is not added to the contract value and is not a rate of return or growth rate. 

Fee: 1.00% of the Protected Payment Base deducted annually for both the Single Life and Joint Life options.

Market Value Adjustment (MVA)

If either of the following occur during the withdrawal charge period, an MVA may apply (in addition to any applicable withdrawal charges):

  • Withdrawals in excess of 10% of the prior anniversary's contract value (10% of purchase payments in the first year).

For more information about the MVA 5-,7-, and 10-Year formula, please refer to the MVA endorsement that accompanies the contract. View daily index yields for the J.P. Morgan 5-,7-, and 10-Year U.S. Liquid Indices here.

There is no MVA assessed on withdrawals made after the withdrawal charge period has expired.


Withdrawals without Charges

Withdrawals are permitted 30 days after contract issue. In the first contract year, the maximum is 10% of the total purchase payments. For each subsequent contract year, the maximum is 10% of the contract value as of the prior contract anniversary.

In addition, the withdrawal charge and the MVA will be waived for:

  • Required minimum distribution (RMD) withdrawals (only if calculated by Pacific Life).
  • Withdrawals after the first contract year if the owner or annuitant has been diagnosed with a terminal illness (life expectancy of 12 months or fewer).
  • Withdrawals after 90 days of contract issue if the owner or annuitant has been confined to an accredited nursing home for 30 days or more, as long as the nursing home confinement began after the contract was issued.
  • Withdrawals up to the Lifetime Annual Withdrawal Amount under the optional Lifetime Income Creator.
  • Beneficiary benefit proceeds.
  • Annuity income payments (available after the first contract year).

Note: For Index-Linked Options, no interest is earned or credited on amounts withdrawn prior to the end of the contract year.

 

Guaranteed Minimum Surrender Value

Clients are guaranteed to receive the greater of the contract value (minus applicable benefit charges, a market value adjustment (MVA), and/or withdrawal charges) or the Guaranteed Minimum Surrender Value.

  • The Guaranteed Minimum Surrender Value that is applicable to the interest crediting option, is equal to 87.5% of purchase payments minus prior withdrawals, accumulated at a fixed interest rate, which is set at contract issue.
  • Calculated at full withdrawal, death, or annuitization.
  • Guaranteed for the life of the contract.
  • After the withdrawal charge period, new nonforfeiture rates for the contract will be declared on each subsequent contract anniversary.

 

Fixed Account Option

  • Each Fixed Account Option term is one contract year.
  • Interest is credited daily.
  • The initial rate is guaranteed for the length of the initial guaranteed period.
  • After the initial guaranteed period expires, renewal rates are declared annually and never will be lower than the minimum guaranteed interest rate stated in the contract.
  • The initial interest rate will depend on the contract term, initial guaranteed period chosen, and the total of all purchase payments received in the first year.

 

Index-Linked Options

  • Earns interest based on selected crediting methods and indexes.
  • Interest may be credited at the end of each one-year index term depending on the amount of change in an index price.
  • The initial interest crediting rates will depend on the contract value, initial guaranteed period chosen, and total of all purchase payments.

 

Interest Breakpoints

Breakpoints apply for all Interest-Crediting Options and are based on the total purchase payment:

  • Less than $100,000
  • $100,000 and more

If a subsequent purchase payment results in the total payments exceeding $100,000, the higher breakpoint will be used in determining the interest credited at the end of the initial term. Once a higher breakpoint is reached, subsequent withdrawals during the initial guaranteed period will not reduce breakpoint used to determine interest credited at end of initial guaranteed period. After an initial guaranteed period, a higher breakpoint will be used to determine interest credited for renewal terms if contract anniversary value exceeds $100,000.

 

Transfers

Transfers are effective on a contract anniversary but can be requested up to 30 days after contract anniversary.
At end of each contract year, clients may transfer value from Fixed Account Option or any Index Linked Options to another Index Linked Option or/and Fixed Account Option.

Clients may convert the contract to annuity income payments one year after contract issue.

  • The amount annuitized is equal to the contract value.
  • Pro rata index-linked interest is credited to the contract value upon annuitization.
  • Available one year after contract issue.
  • If the client elects to annuitize, the Lifetime Income Creator GLWB will terminate.

 

Annuity Income Options Available

  • Life Only
  • Single Life or Joint Life with Period Certain (5–30 years1)
  • Joint and Survivor Life
  • Period Certain Only (up to 30 years1)
  • Single and Joint Life with Cash Refund

The annuity provides the standard death benefit. If death occurs before annuity income payments begin, a beneficiary benefit equal to the greater of the contract value or the Guaranteed Minimum Surrender Value is paid upon the death of the first owner or the last annuitant. Pro rata index-linked interest is credited to the contract value on the Notice Date (the date Pacific Life receives the beneficiary benefit claim in good order). 

Premium: Limited premium. 1035 exchange/transfer requests must be submitted with the application and the funds received within 60 days after contract issue.

Please note: Additional cash purchase payments up to $100,000 are permitted within the first 60 days of contract issue. Interest will be credited proportionately based on the date the additional purchase payment is received and the index return from the date the additional purchase payment is received to the end of the index term. This period may be less than the time frames listed above.

Minimum Purchase Payment: $25,000 (qualified and nonqualified).

Maximum: $2 million; total purchase payments greater than $2 million require Pacific Life home-office approval in advance. 

Minimum Issue Age: 50

Maximum Issue Age: 85

Maximum Annuitization Age: 110

 
 

Guarantees are subject to the claims-paying ability and financial strength of the issuing insurance company.

1For qualified contracts, the maximum length of time for the Period Certain options may be less than 30 years, if necessary, to comply with RMD regulations for annuities.

All guarantees are subject to the claims-paying ability and financial strength of the issuing insurance company.

All annuity contract and rider guarantees, or annuity payout rates, are the sole obligations of and backed by the claims-paying ability and financial strength of the issuing insurance company.

Not all products or optional benefits are available in all states or firms, and features may vary by state and firm. Fixed indexed annuities are not securities and do not participate directly in the stock market or any index, so they are not investments. 

Annuities are long-term contracts designed for retirement. Annuity withdrawals and other distributions of taxable amounts, including death benefit payouts, will be subject to ordinary income tax. For nonqualified contracts, an additional 3.8% federal tax may apply on net investment income. If withdrawals and other distributions are taken prior to age 59½, an additional 10% federal income tax may apply. A withdrawal charge also may apply and a market value adjustment (MVA) also may apply. Withdrawals will reduce the contract value and the value of the death benefit, and also may reduce the value of any optional benefits.

Rates, renewal caps, declared interest rates, and participation rates will never be set below the minimum stated in the contract. Pacific Life determines, at its discretion, rates, renewal caps, declared interest rates, and participation rates in excess of the minimum guaranteed in the contract.
