BEFORE THE ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE Clause Samples

The "Before the Annuity Commencement Date" clause defines the rights, obligations, and conditions that apply to an annuity contract prior to the date when annuity payments are scheduled to begin. Typically, this clause outlines how premiums are handled, the accumulation of interest or investment returns, and the policyholder’s options such as surrender, withdrawals, or beneficiary changes during this pre-annuitization period. Its core practical function is to clarify the rules and available actions for both the insurer and the policyholder before regular annuity payouts commence, thereby ensuring transparency and managing expectations during the accumulation phase.
BEFORE THE ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE. If the Annuitant dies before the Annuity Commencement Date, and is survived by a Contingent Annuitant, the Certificate will be continued with the Contingent Annuitant being named the Annuitant. If the Certificate is a Non-Qualified Contract, it may qualify for continuation under the "Death of the Participant Prior to the Annuity Date - Non-Qualified Contracts Only" provision Otherwise, death proceeds will be paid as follows (unless the Participant has specified in writing the death proceeds are to be paid in a different manner):
BEFORE THE ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE. The Personal Pension Account Death Benefit shall become due and payable on the Valuation Day when We are notified that the Owner, Annuitant and Joint Annuitant have all become deceased. No Death Benefit shall therefore be payable upon the first death of the Owner, Annuitant or Joint Annuitant. Your Personal Pension Account Payouts, Guarantee Window, Payout Purchase Rates, and Credited Interest Rates will then continue to apply until the Death Benefit becomes payable. The Death Benefit will be the greater of (x) the Total Balance as of the Valuation Day when We are notified that the Owner, Annuitant and Joint Annuitant have all become deceased, or (y) the greatest Death Benefit payable under the Personal Pension Account Annuity Rider, as amended by this endorsement, and any other rider or endorsement then made part of this Contract as specified by Us. Payment of the Death Benefit will be subject to the restrictions contained in the “Distribution Requirements” section of the Contract. HL-PPA-JS-11 Page 3 Printed in U.S.A. Alternatively, You may notify Us In Writing following the first death of the Owner, Annuitant or Joint Annuitant that You desire to rescind and irrevocably waive spousal contract continuation rights and receive the Death Benefit payable under any settlement option made part of this Contract as specified by Us. The Death Benefit shall equal the greater of (x) Total Balance, or (y) the greatest Death Benefit payable under the Personal Pension Account Annuity Rider, as amended by this endorsement, and any other rider or endorsement then made part of this Contract as specified by Us. Total Balance shall be reduced to reflect Personal Pension Account Payouts received between the first death and the payment of the Death Benefit. Payment of the Death Benefit will be subject to the restrictions contained in the “Distribution Requirements” section of the Contract.

BEFORE THE ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE. If the Annuitant is also the Owner or a Joint Owner, then the Death Benefit paid will be subject to the Contract provisions regarding death of the Owner. If the surviving spouse of the Owner/▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ assumes the Contract, the Contingent Annuitant becomes the Annuitant. If no Contingent Annuitant is named, the surviving spouse becomes the Annuitant. If an Annuitant who is not the Owner or Joint Owner dies, then the Contingent Annuitant, if any, becomes the Annuitant. If no Contingent Annuitant is named, the Owner (or the younger of the Joint Owners) becomes the Annuitant. ON OR AFTER THE ANNUITY COMMENCE-MENT DATE. On receipt of due proof of death, as described in Section 2.14, of the Annuitant or both Joint Annuitants, any remaining annuity benefit payments under the Annuity Payment Option will be paid to the Owner if living; otherwise, to the Beneficiary. If there is no Beneficiary, any remaining annuity benefit payments will continue to the estate of the Annuitant. Form 29266 Page 11
BEFORE THE ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE. Personal Pension Account Payouts will terminate on the Valuation Day when We are notified of the death of any of the following contract parties: Owner, any joint Owner or Annuitant; whereupon the Death Benefit shall become due and payable. Your Benefit Balance may then be converted into Contract Value and transferred to the Money Market Fund or paid as a lump sum without commutation. Unless We agree otherwise, Contract Value may not be reallocated back into the Personal Pension Account. If the Contract is eligible to continue with the spouse as the Owner, and the Annuitant is still alive, the Benefit Balance may remain in the Personal Pension Account and no Death Benefit shall be payable until We are notified of the death of such spouse. The previously established Guarantee Window, Payout Purchase Rates, and Credited Interest Rates will then continue to apply. Alternatively, the spouse may elect to transfer the Benefit Balance to the Money Market Fund. If the Contract is eligible to continue with the spouse as the Owner, and the surviving spouse has replaced the deceased Annuitant, the Benefit Balance will be converted into Contract Value and transferred to the Money Market Fund. Commutation shall not apply to the conversion of Benefit Balance into Contract Value and transfer to the Money Market Fund following the death of the Owner, joint Owner or Annuitant.
BEFORE THE ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE. If the Annuitant is also the Owner or a Joint Owner, then the Death Benefit paid will be subject to the Contract provisions regarding death of the Owner. If the surviving spouse of the Owner/▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ assumes the Contract, the Contingent Annuitant becomes the Annuitant. If no Contingent Annuitant is named, the surviving spouse becomes the Annuitant. If an Annuitant who is not the Owner or Joint Owner dies, the Contingent Annuitant, if any, becomes the Annuitant. If no Contingent Annuitant is named, the Owner (or the younger of the Joint Owners) becomes the Annuitant.
