Statutory warning:
“Some benefits are guaranteed and some benefits are variable with returns based on the
future performance of your insurer carrying on life insurance business. If your policy offers
guaranteed returns then these will be clearly marked “guaranteed” in the illustration table on
this page. If your policy offers variable returns then the illustrations on this page will show two
different rates of assumed future investment returns. These assumed rates of return are not
guaranteed and they are not the upper or lower limits of what you might get back as the value
of your policy is dependent on a number of factors including future investment performance.”

i) This illustration is applicable to a non-smoker male/female standard (from medical, life
style and occupation point of view) life.
ii) The non-guaranteed benefits (1) and (2) in above illustration are calculated so that they
are consistent with the Projected Investment Rate of Return assumption of 6% p.a.(Scenario
1) and 10% p.a.(Scenario 2) respectively. In other words, in preparing this benefit illustration, it
is assumed that the Projected Investment Rate of Return that LICI will be able to earn
throughout the term of the policy will be 6% p.a. or 10% p.a., as the case may be. The
Projected Investment Rate of Return is not guaranteed.
iii) The main objective of the illustration is that the client is able to appreciate the features
of the product and the flow of benefits in different circumstances with some level of
quantification.
iv) Future bonus will depend on future profits and as such is not guaranteed. However,
once bonus is declared in any year and added to the policy, the bonus so added is guaranteed.
v) The maturity benefit is the amount shown at the end of the policy term.
