3 Ways LIFETIME INCOME PLUSSM May Help Secure More Retirement Income
For agent use only. Not for dissemination to the public.
14
1. Guarantee a client’s Income Base will DOUBLE to 200% of eligible premiums, when no withdrawals are taken before the 10th contract anniversary.8
2. Guarantee a 7% roll-up (income credit) on the Income Base every year that withdrawals are not taken in the contract’s first 10 years.
3. Guarantee lifetime withdrawals of up to 6% per year, as long as withdrawals are taken within the terms of the rider.9
8 Guarantees are backed by the claims-paying ability of the issuing insurer. The Income Base is the amount on which lifetime withdrawals under the rider are based; it is not used in the calculation of the contract value or any other benefits under the contract, and cannot be withdrawn partially or in a lump sum. Eligible premiums are premiums paid in the first 30 days of the contract and do not include income credits.
9 Withdrawals range from 3.25% to 6.00% of the Income Base, depending on whether one or two people are covered and their age at the time of the first withdrawal.

Index annuities are not a direct investment in the stock market. They are long-term insurance products with guarantees backed by the claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company. They provide the potential for interest to be credited based in part on the performance of the specified index, without the risk of loss of premium due to market downturns or fluctuations. Index annuities may not be suitable or appropriate for all clients.
Withdrawals may be subject to federal and/or state income taxes. An additional 10% federal tax may apply if clients make withdrawals or surrender their annuity before age 59-1/2. Beginning January 1, 2013, annuity income will be subject to an additional tax of 3.8% under specific factual situations. Clients should consult their tax advisor regarding their specific situation.
Lifetime Income Plus is optional and available at contract issue in the Power Index Plus Annuity for an annual fee of 0.95% of the Income Base. Restrictions and limitations apply. Contract and optional living benefit guarantees are backed by the claims-paying ability of American General Life Insurance Company.
The Income Base is the amount on which lifetime withdrawals are based; it is not used in the calculation of the contract value or any other benefits under the contract, and cannot be withdrawn partially or in a lump sum. The Income Base is initially equal to the first eligible premium; it is adjusted for excess withdrawals and is increased each time an eligible premium is made. On each contract anniversary for up to 10 years, the Income Base is guaranteed to grow by a 7% income credit, as long as no withdrawals have been taken for that year. On the 10th contract anniversary, the Income Base may be increased to the Minimum Income Base (200% of eligible premiums) if no withdrawals have been taken from the contract.
