 RE: Midland National Life Separate Account C

         File Number 333-176870 – LiveWell Variable Annuity

 

Commissioners:

 

On behalf of Midland National Life Insurance Company (“Midland National”), we are filing electronically herewith under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”) and the Investment Company Act of 1940 Post-Effective Amendment No. 14 to the above-referenced registration statement and Amendment No. 138 to the registration statement under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“Amendment”).

 

This Amendment is being filed pursuant to paragraph (a) (1) of Rule 485 under the 1933 Act to add an optional Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement (“Endorsement”).

 

The Endorsement will provide the option to be elected only at issue and provide an annual step-up based on greatest of the following values: 

 

1)      the Variable Annuity’s Accumulation Value,

2)      the Variable Annuity’s Death Benefit (ROP Death Benefit), and

3)      the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement Value on the Contract Anniversary prior to the step-up of the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement Value as those terms are described in the prospectus contained in the Registration Statement.

 

Certain routine annual updating information, along with financial statements and responses to the Commission staff comments, will be filed in an amendment to this registration statement to be filed in April pursuant to Rule 485 (b) under the 1933 Act. 

 

Request for Expedited Review

 

We respectfully request selective review of the Amendment pursuant to Securities Act Release No. 6510 (Feb. 15, 1984).

 


 

In support of this request, we note that the prospectus contained in the Amendment is substantially similar to the prospectus contained in the currently effective registration statement, except that the Amendment describes edits to reflect the Endorsement, and certain other annual updating edits that would otherwise be filed pursuant to Rule 485(b).

 

Acceleration of Effectiveness of the Registration Statement

 

On behalf of Midland National and its principal underwriter Sammons Financial Network, LLC., we hereby request acceleration of the effectiveness of the Amendment, pursuant to Rule 461 under the 1933 Act, so that the registration statement will be declared effective as of May 1, 2020 to maintain the continuous offering of the contracts.  In this connection, Midland National and Sammons Financial Network, LLC. have authorized me to represent on their behalf that they are aware of their obligations under the 1933 Act.

 

If you have any comments or questions about this filing, please contact the undersigned or Richard T. Choi of Carlton Fields, P.A. at 202-965-8127 or RChoi@carltonfields.com.

Accumulation Unit means the units credited to each investment option in the Separate Account before the maturity date.

 

Accumulation value means the sum of the amounts you have in the investment option(s) of our Separate Account under your in force Contract. This may also be referred to as account value.

 

Annuitant means the person whose life is used to determine the amount and duration of any annuity payments involving life contingencies. The annuitant may not be changed during the annuitant’s lifetime.

 

Annuitization means an election of an annuity payment option.

 

Annuitize means an election to receive regular income payments from your Contract under one of the annuity payment options.  An election to annuitize your Contract may be irrevocable.  If you elect to annuitize your Contract, you will no longer be able to exercise any liquidity (e.g., withdrawal or surrender) provision that may have previously been available. 

 

Base Contract means the Contract without an Optional Value Endorsement (or any other optional endorsements) included.

 

Beneficiary means the person or persons to whom the Contract’s death benefit will be paid in the event of the death of the owner.

Contract Anniversary means the same date in each Contract year as the issue date.

 

Contract Month means a month that starts on the same date as the issue date in each month.  For this purpose, if the issue date is not a calendar date in every month, then we look forward to the first day of the next calendar month.  For example, assume a Contract is issued on January 31st; subsequent Contract months will begin on the first day of each month (March 1, March 31, May 1, May 31, etc.).

 

Contract Quarter means a three-month period that starts on the same date as the issue date in each three-month period.  For this purpose, if the issue date is not a calendar date in every month, then we look forward to the first day of the next calendar month.  For example, assume a Contract is issued on January 31st; Contract quarters will begin on the first day of each quarter (May 1, July 31, and October 31).

 

Contract Year means a year that starts on the issue date or on each Contract anniversary thereafter.

Gain means the difference, if any, between your accumulation value and the total premiums received less any reduction for partial withdrawals on a dollar for dollar basis.

Issue Date means the date the Contract goes into effect and from which Contract anniversaries, Contract months, Contract quarters, and Contract years are determined.

SUMMARY

 

In this prospectus “we,” “our,” “us,” “Midland National,” and “Company” mean Midland National Life Insurance Company.  “you” and “your” mean the owner of the Contract.  We refer to the person who is covered by the Contract as the “annuitant,” because the annuitant and the owner might not be the same.

 

This summary provides only a brief overview of the more important features of the Contract. The detailed information appearing later in this prospectus further explains the following summary.  Please read this entire prospectus, your Contract and the SAI for more detailed information.  The prospectus discloses all material features and benefits of the Contract. Unless otherwise indicated, the description of the Contract in this prospectus assumes that the Contract is in force.

 

Features of LiveWell Variable Annuity

 

The LiveWell Variable Annuity, a flexible premium deferred variable annuity, described in this prospectus provides for accumulation of assets (the “accumulation value”) and payment of annuity payments.  The Contract is designed to aid individuals in long-term planning for retirement or other long-term purposes.

 

The Contract is available for situations that do not qualify for the special federal tax advantages available under the Internal Revenue Code (“Non-Qualified Contract”) and for retirement plans which do qualify for those tax advantages (“Qualified Contract”).  This Contract does not offer any additional tax benefits when purchased under a qualified plan.  See “Suitability of the Contract” on page 15 for more detailed information.

 

Replacing an existing annuity with the Contract may not be of financial benefit to you.  Your existing annuity may be subject to fees or penalties on surrender.  Compare the fees, charges, coverage provisions and limitations, if any, of your existing annuity with those of the Contract described in this prospectus before replacing an existing annuity.

 

This Contract is designed for people seeking long-term tax-deferred accumulation of assets, generally for retirement or other long-term purposes.  You should not buy this Contract: 

·         if you are looking for a short-term investment; or

·         if you cannot risk getting back less money than you put in.

 

Your “Free Look” Right

You can examine the Contract and return it to us for any reason within ten (10) days after you receive it for a refund of the accumulation value (which may be more or less than the premium payments you paid), or if greater and required by your state, the original amount of your premium payment.  Longer free look periods apply in some states and in certain situations.  See “Free Look” on page 19 for more details.

 

Your Accumulation Value

Your accumulation value depends on:

·         the amount and frequency of premium payments,

·         the selected subaccounts’ investment experience,

·         partial withdrawals, and

·         charges and deductions.

 

You bear the investment risk under the Contract.  There is no minimum guaranteed accumulation value and you could lose accumulation value invested in this Contract.

 

Flexible Premium Payments

You may pay premiums whenever you want, prior to annuitization, and in whatever amount you want, within certain limits and subject to our ability to refuse any premiums.  The minimum initial premium for a Contract is $10,000.  You may make additional payments of $1,000 or more at any time after the free-look period.  By current company practice, we will also accept additional payments via automatic bank draft in amounts of $100 or more per month.

 

Unless you receive approval from us, the maximum amount of premium you can pay into this Contract prior to the maturity date is $2,000,000.  Also, an initial or additional premium that would cause the contract value of all annuities that you maintain with Midland National to exceed $5,000,000 requires our prior approval.  This limit is calculated for each annuitant or owner and is based on all active annuity contracts.


 

 

Investment Choices

You allocate your accumulation value to the investment options of our Separate Account available under this Contract.  Currently, we do not limit the maximum number of investment options. However, we reserve the right to limit the maximum number of investment options invested in at any one time. 

 

For a full description of the investment options, see the portfolios’ prospectuses or summary prospectuses, which accompany this prospectus.  See “APPENDIX A – SEPARATE ACCOUNT INVESTMENT OPTIONS” on page 44 for more information.

 

Each investment option pays a different investment management or advisory fee and has different operating expenses.  More detail concerning each investment options’ fees and expenses is contained in the prospectus provided by the fund company. 

 

We allocate your premiums and investment allocations to the investment options you choose.  The value of your Contract will fluctuate daily during the accumulation period depending on the investment options you have chosen; you bear the investment risk.

 

Transfers

We currently do not charge for transfers between investment options, but reserve the right to charge $15 per transfer for transfers in excess of 15 per Contract year. If assessed, this charge will be deducted from the amount that is transferred prior to the allocation to a different investment option. The fee is waived for transfers in connection with active dollar cost averaging (“DCA”) or automatic rebalancing programs. We also reserve the right to limit the number of transfers you may make and may otherwise modify or terminate transfer privileges if required by our business judgment or in accordance with applicable law or pursuant to our agreements with the underlying portfolios.  We reserve the right to eliminate and/or severely restrict the transfer privilege in any manner we deem appropriate for some, all, or specific owners.  See “Transfer Limitations” on page 20 for more information. Your ability to make transaction requests may be limited as to the time, frequency and dollar amount when using a third-party investment adviser.

 

Frequent or Disruptive Transfers

Frequent, large, programmed, or short-term transfers among the investment options can cause risks with adverse effects for other owners (and beneficiaries and portfolios).  These risks and harmful effects include:

·         dilution of the interests of long-term investors in an investment option if transfers into the option are made at unit values that are priced below the true value or transfers out of the investment option are made at unit values priced higher than the true value (some “market timers” attempt to do this through methods known as “time-zone arbitrage” and “liquidity arbitrage”);

·         an adverse effect on portfolio management, such as causing the portfolio to maintain a higher level of cash than would otherwise be the case, or causing a portfolio to liquidate investments prematurely (or otherwise at an inopportune time) in order to pay withdrawals; and

·         increased brokerage and administrative expenses. 

 

In addition, because other insurance companies and/or retirement plans may invest in the portfolios, the risk exists that the portfolios may suffer harm from frequent, programmed, large, or short-term transfers among investment options of variable contracts issued by other insurance companies or among investment options available to retirement plan participants.

 

Individuals or organizations that use market-timing strategies and make frequent transfers should not purchase the Contract.

 

Optional Value Endorsement

If you elect the Optional 5-, 6- or 7-Year Value Endorsement, then you will be subject to a 5-, 6- or 7-year declining surrender charge for each premium payment, but in exchange we will reduce the Separate Account annual expenses by -0.10%, 0.15% or -0.20%, respectively, which is a percentage of the average daily accumulation value.  This reduces the total daily charge of the LiveWell Variable Annuity Contract when you elect the Optional Value Endorsement; see “Fees and Expenses” below.  Electing this endorsement will benefit owners who do not surrender the Contract or take partial withdrawals, in excess of the annual free withdrawal amount, during the surrender charge period.  The Optional Value Endorsement may only be elected at issue (i.e., when you first purchase the Contract). The maximum issue age for the Optional Value Endorsement is 85 (the owner’s age). For detailed information regarding this endorsement see “Optional Value Endorsement” on page 27.


 

 

Surrenders and Partial Withdrawals

You may generally withdraw all or part of your surrender value at any time, before annuity payments begin.  Withdrawals, also known as partial withdrawals, will reduce your net premium and accumulation value which will affect the death benefit on this Contract.  See “Surrenders and Partial Withdrawals” on page 22 for more information.  The amount you request (plus any surrender charge, if applicable) will be deducted from your accumulation value. We will also deduct a quarterly Contract maintenance fee, as applicable.  You may take a surrender in a lump sum or choose to elect an income through annuitization that will continue as long as you live or for some other period you elect.  See “Free Withdrawal Amount” on page 27 for more information.

 

If you elect the Optional Value Endorsement, then we will deduct  surrender charges for partial withdrawals or full surrenders (including annuitizations). Partial withdrawals will reduce your net premium, remaining premium and accumulation value as well as the death benefit on this Contract.  See “Surrenders and Partial Withdrawals” on page 22 for more information. We will impose applicable surrender charges on any surrender or partial withdrawal in excess of the free withdrawal amount available under the Optional Value Endorsement, (including surrenders to begin annuity payments).

 

If you do not elect the Optional Value Endorsement and have only the base contract, then we will not deduct surrender charges for partial withdrawals, full surrenders and annuitizations.

 

You may also elect a systematic withdrawal option.  See “Systematic Withdrawals” on page 23. 

 

A partial withdrawal or surrender (including withdrawals to pay third-party investment advisers) may have negative tax consequences, including a 10% tax penalty on certain surrenders prior to age 59 ½.  Under Non-Qualified Contracts, gain, if any, is withdrawn first for tax purposes and is taxed as ordinary income.  See “FEDERAL TAX STATUS” on page 32, and “Electing an Annuity Payment Option” on page 36.  Surrenders from Contracts used for tax-qualified retirement plans may be restricted or penalized by the terms of the plan or applicable law. 

 

Administrative Procedures

We may accept a request for Contract service in writing, by telephone, or other approved electronic means at our Customer Service Center, subject to our administrative procedures, which vary depending on the type of service requested and may require proper completion of certain forms, providing appropriate identifying information and/or other administrative requirements.  We will process your request at the accumulation unit value next determined after you have met all administrative requirements in good order.

 

Good order means that all of the information necessary to process a transaction is provided. This includes any required forms are accurately filled out and that we have all the signatures and other information we require, including written notice and proper notification, as we determine in our discretion. To the extent applicable, this information and documentation generally includes your completed application or service form, the Contract number, the transaction amount (in dollars or percentages as applicable), the full names of and allocations to and/or from the investment options affected by the requested transaction, the signatures of all owners, exactly as registered on the Contract, social security number or taxpayer I.D. and any other information or supporting documentation that we may require.  Please sign and date all of your requests. With respect to purchase requests, good order also generally includes receipt of sufficient funds by us to effect the purchase.  We may, in our sole discretion, determine whether any particular transaction request is in good order, and we reserve the right to change or waive any good order requirements at any time.

 

For transactions submitted by telephone, facsimile or internet, the transaction must be completed in good order prior to the close of regular trading of the New York Stock Exchange, generally 3:00 p.m. Central Time.

 

Risk of Increases in Fees and Charges

Certain fees and charges assessed against the Contract are currently at levels below the guaranteed maximum levels. We may increase these fees and charges up to the guaranteed maximum levels for newly issued contracts. Fees and changes may not be changed after a contract has been issued. Note:  The fees and charges assessed under your Contract are set at the current levels in effect on the issue date and may not be changed for the life of your Contract.


 

 

Death Benefit

The LiveWell Variable Annuity Contract pays a death benefit when the owner dies before the maturity date, if the Contract is still in force.  The death benefit is equal to the greatest of (a) the accumulation value, at the time we receive due proof of death, an election of how the death benefit is to be paid, and any other documents or forms required in good order, (b) net premiums, at the time we receive due proof of death, an election of how the death benefit is to be paid, and any other information required or (c) if elected, the enhanced minimum death benefit value. See “Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement” on page “26”. 

 

If the owner dies on or after the maturity date, then any remaining guaranteed amounts, other than the amount payable to, or for the benefit of, the owner’s surviving spouse, must be paid at least as rapidly as the benefits were being paid at the time of the owner’s death.  Other rules relating to distributions at death apply to Qualified Contracts.  State premium taxes may also be deducted from all death benefit proceeds. See “Death Benefit” on page 25 for more information.

Note: Once we issue your Contract, current rates for periodic charges (including the Optional Value Endorsement Annual Expense Reduction) are guaranteed for the life of the Contract.

 

1Currently the annual amount is $40 and may not exceed $60. The quarterly fee is collected on each Contract quarter anniversary, on or before the maturity date, and on full surrender. We reserve the right to change this fee, however, it will not exceed $60 annually.  If your accumulation value or net premium is greater than $50,000 on the Contract quarter anniversary or full surrender, no Contract maintenance fee is charged. 

The quarterly Contract maintenance fee is reflected in the examples below by a method intended to show the impact of the quarterly Contract maintenance fee that is currently assessed for Contracts with an accumulation value of less than $50,000. In the examples, the quarterly Contract maintenance fee is approximated for an “average” Contract with an initial premium of $100,000 as an annual asset charge of 0.06% (based on the maximum $60 charge) or 0.04% (based on the current $40 charge).

2This charge is a percentage of the accumulation value in each investment option.  This annual charge is deducted daily.

3The expense reduction for the 6-Year Value Endorsement is -0.20% for Contracts purchased before May 1, 2017.

 

For information concerning compensation paid for the sale of Contracts, see “Distribution of the Contracts” on page 40.

 

Range of Annual Operating Expenses for the Portfolios1 

The next item shows the lowest and highest total operating expenses charged by the portfolios that you may pay periodically during the time you own the Contract, based on the expenses for the portfolios for the year ended December 31, 2019 (expenses that are deducted from portfolios assets, including management fees, distribution, and/or service (12b-1) fees and other expenses).  Expenses may be higher or lower in the future.  More detail concerning each portfolio’s fees and expenses is contained in the prospectus for each portfolios.

Expense Examples

 

The following examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Contract with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts.  These costs include owner transaction expenses, quarterly Contract maintenance fees, Separate Account annual expenses, and portfolio operating expenses (for the year ended December 31, 2018).


 

 

The examples assume that you invest $10,000 in the Contract for the time periods indicated.  The Examples also assume that your investment has a 5% return each year.  Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

 

Example 1: This example assumes that the highest charges that can be imposed once the contract is issued (i.e., 1.65% separate account annual expenses and $10 quarterly contract maintenance fee), the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement and the highest level of portfolio expenses (without waiver of fees or expenses), without the Optional Value Endorsement.

The examples do not reflect state premium taxes (which may range up to 3.5%, depending on the jurisdiction).

 

These examples should not be considered a representation of past or future expenses.  Actual expenses may be greater or lower than those shown.  The assumed 5% annual rate of return is purely hypothetical; past or future returns may be greater or less than the assumed hypothetical return.

Condensed Financial Information for the investment options is in “APPENDIX C – CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION” on page 62 to this prospectus.

 


 

Charges and Fees

 

Sales Charges

Sales charges are not deducted from premium payments, and there are no surrender charges unless you elect the Optional Value Endorsement.  If you elect the Optional Value Endorsement, then a surrender charge of up to 8% will be assessed against those premium payments subject to a surrender charge when they are withdrawn, including surrenders and partial withdrawals to effect an annuity and systematic withdrawals. The amount of any applicable surrender charge depends on the Optional Value Endorsement you choose, and the number of Contract years between the premium payment and the withdrawal.  See “Surrender Charges for the Optional Value Endorsement” on page 29.

 

Mortality and Expense Risk Charge

We deduct a 1.00% per annum charge against all accumulation values held in the Separate Account for assuming the mortality and expense risks and other risks under the Contract.  We reserve the right to increase this charge; however, it will not exceed 1.50% per annum. (See “Mortality and Expense Risk Charge” on page 28.)

 

Asset Based Administration Charge

We currently deduct an asset based administration charge of 0.35% per annum against all accumulation values held in the Separate Account.  We reserve the right to increase this charge; however, it will not exceed 0.75% per annum.  (See “CHARGES, FEES AND DEDUCTIONS” on page 28.)

 

Quarterly Contract Maintenance Fee

In addition, we currently deduct a quarterly Contract maintenance fee of $10 from each Contract.  This fee is collected on each Contract quarter anniversary, on or before the maturity date, and on full surrender.  We reserve the right to increase this charge; however, it will not exceed $60 per Contract year or $15 per Contract quarter.  If your accumulation value or net premium is greater than $50,000 on the Contract quarter anniversary date or at the time of a full surrender, no quarterly Contract maintenance fee is charged.  If your accumulation value ever becomes insufficient to pay this charge, then your Contract will terminate without value. (See “CHARGES, FEES AND DEDUCTIONS” on page 28.)

 

Third-Party Registered Investment Adviser Fee

You may elect to have a third-party registered investment adviser, in connection with allocations among the investment options. Midland National does not endorse any advisers, nor do we provide investment advice. You can request that we take withdrawals from your Contract to pay the advisory fees provided we have received documentation from you and your adviser.  Any such withdrawal may be taxable, and prior to age 59 ½ may be subject to a 10% penalty tax.  You should consult a tax adviser.  Your ability to make transaction requests may be limited as to the time, frequency and dollar amount when using a third-party investment adviser.

 

State Premium Taxes

We reserve the right to deduct the amount of any state premium taxes levied by a state or any government entity from your surrender value at surrender and from your accumulation value at death, maturity or annuitization.  (See “State Premium Taxes” on page 29).

 

Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement Charge

We deduct a 0.30% per annum charge against all accumulation values held in the Separate Account. Once we issue your Contract, the change is guaranteed for the life of the Contract. See “CHARGES, FEES AND DEDUCTIONS” on page 28.

 

Optional Value Endorsement Fee Reduction

When you elect the Optional 5-, 6- or 7-Year Value Endorsement, you will be subject to a 5-, 6- or 7-year declining surrender charge, but in exchange we will reduce your LiveWell Variable Annuity Separate Account annual expenses by 0.10% (from 1.35% to 1.25%), 0.15% (from 1.35% to 1.20%) or 0.20% (from 1.35% to 1.15%), respectively. See “CHARGES, FEES AND DEDUCTIONS” on page 28.  This reduction will lower the total fees deducted from your Separate Account accumulation value. For more detailed information see “Optional Value Endorsement” on page 27.

 

We reserve the right to lower the amount of this fee reduction, but in no event will the amount of the fee reduction be less than 0.00%. The amount of the fee reduction is set at the time the endorsement is elected—i.e., at Contract issue, and will remain in effect until the Contract is terminated. We will not change the amount of the fee reduction for in force Contracts.

 


 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT LIVEWELL VARIABLE ANNUITY

 

Suitability of the Contract

 

Because of the fees and expenses and possible loss of principal, the Contracts are not appropriate for short-term investment (especially if you elect an Optional Value Endorsement due to the surrender charge schedule).  In addition, Non-Qualified Contracts may be most appropriate for those who have already made maximum use of other tax favored investment plans such as 401(k) plans.  The tax-deferred feature of the Contract is most favorable to those in high tax brackets.  The tax-deferred feature is not necessary for a tax-qualified plan.  In such instances, purchasers should consider whether other features, such as the death benefit and lifetime annuity payments make the Contract appropriate for their purposes.  Before purchasing a Contract for use in a qualified plan, you should obtain competent tax advice both as to the tax treatment of the Contract and the suitability of the investment for your particular situation.

 

This Contract is not designed for resale or speculation, arbitrage, viatical settlements or any type of collective investment scheme.  This Contract may not be traded on any stock exchange or secondary market.  By purchasing this Contract, you represent and warrant that you are not purchasing or intending to use this Contract, for resale, speculation, arbitrage, viatical settlements or any type of collective investment scheme.

 

Other Products

 

We may offer other variable annuity contracts through our Separate Account that also invest in some of the same portfolios.  These annuity contracts may have different charges and may offer different benefits.  We encourage you to carefully consider the costs and benefits of the Contract to ensure that it is consistent with your personal investment goals and needs.  To obtain more information about these annuity contracts, contact your registered representative, or call us at (866) 747-3421.

Our Separate Account C and Its Investment Options

 

The Separate Account is the Midland National Life Separate Account C, established under the insurance laws of the State of South Dakota in March 1991 and now governed by Iowa law.  It is a unit investment trust registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940.  This registration does not involve any SEC supervision of its management or investment contracts.  The Separate Account is divided into subaccounts, called investment options, each of which invests exclusively in shares of one investment portfolio of a Trust or Fund.  You may allocate part or all of your premiums to any of the investment options of our Separate Account available under this Contract (some restrictions may apply).

 

You will find information about the portfolios currently available under your Contract in “APPENDIX A – SEPARATE ACCOUNT INVESTMENT OPTIONS”.  Appendix A includes information about investment objectives and advisers. Appendix A also includes information about “closed” investment options.

 

Our Separate Account buys and sells the shares of each portfolio at net asset value (with no sales or surrender charge).  More detailed information about the portfolios and their investment objectives, policies, risks, charges, expenses and other aspects of their operations, appear in their prospectuses and in each portfolio’s Statement of Additional Information.  You should read the portfolios’ prospectuses carefully before investing, allocating or transferring money to any portfolio.  You can receive a current copy of a prospectus (or summary prospectus) for each of the portfolios by contacting your registered representative or by calling our Customer Service Center at (866) 747-3421 or writing to our Customer Service Center, Midland National Life Insurance Company, P.O. Box 758547, Topeka, Kansas 66675-8547

 

The portfolios, their managers, or affiliates thereof, may make payments to Midland National and/or its affiliates.  These payments may be derived, in whole or in part, from the fees disclosed in the portfolios’ prospectuses including investment advisory fees, 12b-1 fees and other expenses including service fees (if applicable) charged annually by each portfolio.  owners, through their indirect investment in the portfolios, bear the costs of these fees.  The amount of these payments may be substantial, may vary between portfolios, and generally are based on a percentage of the assets in the portfolios that are attributable to the Contracts and other variable insurance products issued by Midland National.  These percentages currently range up to 0.50% annually.  Midland National may use these payments for any corporate purpose, including payment of expenses that Midland National and/or its affiliates incur in promoting, issuing, marketing, and administering the Contracts, and, that we incur in our role as intermediary, in promoting and marketing the portfolios.  Midland National and its affiliates may profit from these payments.

 


 

 

Amounts in Our Separate Account

 

The amount you have in each investment option is represented by the value of the accumulation units.  The value you have in an investment option is the accumulation unit value times the number of accumulation units credited to you.  Amounts allocated, transferred or added to the investment options are used to purchase accumulation unitsAccumulation units of an investment option are purchased when you allocate premiums or transfer amounts to that option.  Accumulation units are sold or redeemed when you make a surrender, partial withdrawal or transfer amounts from an investment option, and to pay the death benefit when the owner dies.  We also redeem units to pay for certain charges.

 

We calculate the number of accumulation units purchased or redeemed in an investment option by dividing the dollar amount of the transaction by the investment option’s accumulation unit value at the end of that day, if it is a business day. If it is not a business day, we will use the unit value on the next business day.  The number of accumulation units credited to you will not vary because of changes in accumulation unit values.

 

The accumulation units of each investment option have different accumulation unit values.  We determine accumulation unit values for the investment options at the end of each business day.  The accumulation unit value for each investment option is initially set at $10.00.  Accumulation unit values fluctuate with the investment performance of the corresponding portfolios.  Accumulation unit values reflect investment income, the portfolios’ realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, and the portfolios’ expenses.  The accumulation unit values also reflect the daily asset charges we deduct from our Separate Account currently at an effective annual rate of 1.35% or (1.15% (7-year), 1.20% (6-year) or 1.25% (5-year) when the Optional Value Endorsement is elected, 1.65% when the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement is elected, 1.45% (7-year), 1.50% (6-year) or 1.55% (5-year) when the Optional Value Endorsement and the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement, are elected) of the accumulation value in the Separate Account.  Additional information about the accumulation unit values is contained in the SAI.

 

We Own the Assets of Our Separate Account

 

We own the assets of our Separate Account and use them to support your Contract and other variable annuity contracts.  We may permit charges owed to us to stay in the Separate Account.  Thus, we may also participate proportionately in the Separate Account.  These accumulated amounts belong to us and we may transfer them from the Separate Account to our general account.  The assets in the Separate Account equal to the reserves and other liabilities of the Separate Account may not be charged with liabilities arising out of our other business.  The obligations under the Contracts are our obligations.  The income, gains and losses (realized and unrealized) of the Separate Account are credited to or charged against the Separate Account without regard to our other income, gains, or losses.  Under certain unlikely circumstances, one investment option of the Separate Account may be liable for claims relating to the operations of another investment option.

 

Our Right to Change How We Operate Our Separate Account

 

We have the right to modify how we operate the Separate Account.  In making any changes, we may not seek approval of owners (unless approval is required by law).  We have the right to:

·         add investment options to, or remove investment options from our Separate Account;

·         combine two or more investment options within our Separate Account;

·         withdraw assets relating to our variable annuities from one investment option and put them into another;

·         eliminate a portfolio’s shares and substitute shares of another portfolio or another open-end, registered investment company.  This may happen if the portfolio’s shares are no longer available for investment or, if in our judgment, further investment in the portfolio is inappropriate in view of the Separate Account’s purposes.  However, if required, we would first seek approval from the Securities and Exchange Commission and the insurance regulator where the Contract is delivered;

·         end the registration of our Separate Account under the Investment Company Act of 1940;

·         operate our Separate Account under the direction of a committee or discharge such a committee at any time (the committee may be composed entirely of “interested persons” of Midland under the Investment Company Act of 1940); and


 

·         operate our Separate Account or one or more of the investment options in any other form the law allows, including a form that allows us to  make direct investments.  In addition, we may disapprove any change in investment advisors or investment policies unless a law or regulation provides differently.

 

If any changes are made that result in a material change to any investment option, then you will be notified.  We may, for example, cause the investment option to invest in another mutual fund other than or in addition to the current portfolios.

 

If automatic allocations (such as premiums automatically deducted from your bank account, or dollar cost averaging or automatic rebalancing) are being made into an investment option that is removed or no longer available, and if you do not give us other instructions, then any amounts that would have gone into the removed or closed investment option will be allocated to a Money Market Fund  investment option.

 

If you are enrolled in a dollar cost averaging, automatic rebalancing, automatic premiums, or a comparable program while an underlying investment option merger, substitution or liquidation takes place, unless otherwise noted in a communication from us, your accumulation value invested in such investment option will be transferred automatically to the designated surviving investment option in the case of mergers, the replacement investment option in the case of substitutions, and an available Money Market Fund in the case of investment option liquidations. your DCA or automatic rebalancing enrollment instructions will be automatically updated to reflect the surviving investment option, the replacement investment option or a Money Market Fund for any continued and future transfers or premium payments.

 

You may want to transfer the amount in that investment option as a result of changes we have made.  If you do wish to transfer the amount you have in that investment option to another investment option of our Separate Account, then you may do so, without charge, by writing to our Customer Service Center.  At the same time, you may also change how your premiums are allocated.

 

 

DETAILED INFORMATION ABOUT THE CONTRACT

 

Requirements for Issuance of a Contract

 

Any person wishing to purchase a Contract may submit an application form and an initial premium payment of at least $10,000.  The sale must take place through a representative who is licensed, registered and authorized to sell the Contract.  The maximum issue age for the Contract is 90 (the owner’s age). 

 

If your application is complete and in good order (see “Administrative Procedures” on page 10), then we will accept or reject it within two business days of receipt.  If the application is incomplete, then we will attempt to complete it within five business days.  If it is not complete at the end of this period (or cannot be accepted for some other reason), then we will inform you of the reason for the delay and the premium payment will be returned immediately unless you let us keep the premium until the application is complete.  Your initial premium is held in a non-interest bearing suspense account (which is part of our general account) until your Contract is issued or your premium is refunded.  While your premium is in that account, your premium is not protected from claims of our general creditors.

 

We will allocate your initial premium payment according to your instructions if we receive it or accept your application (whichever is later) at our Customer Service Center before the New York Stock Exchange closes for regular trading (usually, 3:00 p.m. Central Time).  We will then price the accumulation units purchased with your premium payment at the unit value determined at the close of that valuation period.  If we receive your initial premium payment or accept your application (whichever is later) after the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, we will credit accumulation units at the unit value determined at the close of the next valuation period.

 

There may be delays in our receipt of applications that are outside of our control because of the failure of the selling registered representative to forward the application to us promptly, or because of delays in their broker dealer determining that the Contract is suitable for you.  Any such delays will affect when your Contract can be issued and when your premium payment is allocated among investment options of our Separate Account.

We may offer other variable annuity contracts that have different death benefits, contract features, and optional benefits.  However, these other contracts also have different charges that would affect your investment performance and accumulation value.  To obtain more information about these other contracts, contact our Customer Service Center.

 


 

Free Look

 

You may cancel your Contract within your ten (10) day Free Look period.  We deem the Free Look period to expire 10 days after you have received your Contract.  Some states and situations may require a longer Free Look period.  To cancel your Contract, you need to return your Contract and any other documentation that we may require, in good order, to the registered representative who sold it to you or to our Customer Service Center.  If you cancel your Contract, then we will return:

 

·         The accumulation value (which may be more or less than the premium payments you paid), or

·         If greater and required by your state, your premiums minus any partial withdrawals.

 

Tax-Free “Section 1035” Exchanges

 

You can generally exchange one non-qualified annuity contract for another in a “tax-free exchange” under Section 1035 of the Internal Revenue Code.  Before making an exchange, you should compare both annuities carefully.  Remember that if you exchange another annuity for the one described in this prospectus, you might have to pay a surrender charge on your old annuity, there may be a surrender charge on this Contract,  and other charges may be higher (or lower) and the benefits may be different.  You should not exchange another annuity for this one unless you determine, after knowing all the facts, that the exchange is in your best interest and not just better for the person trying to sell you this Contract (that person will generally earn a commission if you buy this Contract through an exchange or otherwise). If you purchase the Contract in exchange for an existing annuity contract from another company, we may not receive your premium payment from the other company for a substantial period of time after you sign the application and send it to us, and we cannot credit your premium to the Contract until we receive it. You should consult with and rely upon a tax adviser if you are considering a contract exchange.

 

Premium Payments

 

You can make additional premium payments at any time prior to annuitization and in whatever amount you want, within certain limits and subject to our right to refuse any premiums. Your initial investment must be at least $10,000.  You may make additional payments of $1,000 or more at any time after the free-look period.  By current company practice, we will also accept additional payments via automatic bank draft in amounts of $100 or more per month.  Unless you receive approval from us, the maximum amount of premium you can pay into this Contract prior to the maturity date is $2,000,000.  In addition, an initial or additional premium that would cause the accumulation value or total value of all annuities that you maintain with Midland National to exceed $5,000,000 requires our prior approval.  This limit is calculated for each annuitant or owner and is based on all active annuity contracts. 

 

Premium payments will be credited as of the end of the valuation period in which they are received by us, in good order. Investments after the initial premium payment may be made at any time up to the maturity date. We may refuse to accept certain forms of premium payments (e.g., third party checks, traveler’s checks, money orders).  We reserve the right to accept or reject any premium payment or form of payment. If we exercise our right to reject and/or place limitations on the acceptance and allocation of additional premiums, you may be unable or limited in your ability to increase your accumulation value through additional premiums, which, in turn, will affect the amounts that may be applied to an annuity payout option or toward any death benefit paid.

 

The mailing address to send premium payments to us is: Midland National Life Insurance Company, P.O. Box 758546, Topeka, Kansas 66675-8546.

 

Allocation of Premium Payments

You will specify your desired premium allocation on the Contract’s application form.  Your instructions in your application will dictate how to allocate your premiums.  Allocation percentages may be any whole number (from 0 to 100) and the sum must equal 100. The allocation instructions in your application will apply to all other premiums you pay, unless you change subsequent premium allocations by providing us with written instructions.  We reserve the right to limit the number of investment options in which you can allocate your premiums or accumulation value.

 

Changing Your Premium Allocation Percentages

You may change the allocation percentages of your premiums by writing to our Customer Service Center and telling us what changes you wish to make.  We may offer other means to make this type of request with proper authorization and verification. These changes will affect transactions as of the date we receive your request at our Customer Service Center.  Changing your allocation instructions will not change the way your existing accumulation value is allocated among the investment options. While the Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) program is in effect, the allocation percentages that apply to any premiums received will be the DCA allocation percentages unless you specify otherwise.  (See “Dollar Cost Averaging” on page 24).


 

 

Your Accumulation Value

 

Your accumulation value is the sum of your amounts in the various investment options.  Your accumulation value will vary daily to reflect the investment performance of the investment option(s) you select, any premium payments, partial withdrawals, surrenders, and charges assessed in connection with the Contract.   Transaction charges are made on the effective date of the transaction.  Charges against our Separate Account are reflected daily.

 

There is no guaranteed minimum accumulation value for amounts allocated to the investment options of our Separate Account.  You bear the investment risk.  An investment option’s performance will cause your accumulation value to go up or down each valuation period.

 

Transfers of Accumulation Value

You generally may transfer amounts among the investment options prior to maturity date, unless otherwise noted.  The minimum transfer amount is $100 or 100% of the investment option if less than $100.  The minimum amount does not have to come from or be transferred to just one investment option.  The only requirement is that the total amount transferred that day equals the transfer minimum.

 

Completed transfer requests received at our Customer Service Center in good order before the New York Stock Exchange closes for regular trading (usually 3:00 p.m. Central Time) are priced at the unit value determined at the close of that valuation period.  If we receive your completed transfer request in good order after the close of a valuation period, we will process the transfer request at the unit value determined at the close of the next valuation period.

 

For information regarding telephone or facsimile requests, see “Inquiries and Correspondence” on page 15.  Transfers may be delayed under certain circumstances.  See “When We Pay Proceeds from This Contract” on page 40. We currently do not charge for transfers between investment options, but reserve the right to charge $15 per transfer for transfers in excess of 15 per Contract year. If assessed, this charge will be deducted from the amount that is transferred prior to the allocation to a different investment option. The fee is waived for transfers in connection with active DCA or automatic rebalancing programs.

 

We reserve the right to eliminate and/or severely restrict the transfer privilege in any manner we deem appropriate for some, all or specific owners.

 

Transfer Limitations

 

Frequent, large, programmed or short-term transfers among investment options, such as those associated with “market timing” transactions, can adversely affect the portfolios and the returns achieved by owners.  In particular, such transfers may dilute the value of the portfolios’ shares, interfere with the efficient management of the portfolios’ investments, and increase brokerage and administrative costs of the portfolios.  In order to try to protect our owners and the portfolios from potentially harmful trading activity, We have implemented certain market timing and excessive trading policies and procedures (the “Market Timing Procedures”).  Our Market Timing Procedures are designed to detect and prevent frequent or short-term transfer activity among the investment options of the Separate Account that may adversely affect other owners or portfolio shareholders.

 

More specifically, currently our Market Timing Procedures are intended to detect potentially harmful trading or transfer activity by monitoring for excessive trading.  We currently define excessive trading as:

·         More than one purchase and sale of the same investment option within a 60-calendar day period, commonly referred to as a “round trip”.  Two or more “round trips” involving the same investment option within a 60-calendar day period is considered excessive trading.

·         Six round-trips involving the same investment option within a twelve month period.

 


 

We will review transfer requests, daily blotters, and transaction logs in an attempt to identify transfers that exceed these transfer parameters.  We will review those transfers (and other transfers in the same Contract) to determine if, in our judgment, the transfers are part of a market timing strategy or otherwise have the potential to be harmful.  We will honor and process the second transfer request, but if we believe that the activity is potentially harmful, we will suspend that Contract’s transfer privileges and we will not accept another transfer request telephonically or electronically (fax, internet, etc.) for 14 business days.  We will attempt to inform the owner (or registered representative) by telephone that their transfers have been deemed potentially harmful to others and that their telephone and electronic transfer privilege is suspended for 14 days.  If we do not succeed in reaching the owner or registered representative by phone, we will send a letter by first class mail to the owner’s address of record.

 

We reserve the right to apply our market timing procedures to all of the investment options available under the Contracts, including those investment options that invest in portfolios that affirmatively permit frequent and short-term trading in other variable annuity contracts offered by us or other insurance companies.  Therefore, if you allocate premiums or your accumulation value to this type of investment option, you may indirectly bear the effects of market timing or other frequent trading. These portfolios might not be appropriate for long-term investors.  For a complete description of each portfolios’ trading policies, review each portfolios’ prospectus.

 

In addition to our own market timing procedures, managers of the investment portfolios might contact us if they believe or suspect that there is market timing or other potentially harmful trading, and if so we will take appropriate action to protect others.  In particular, we may, and we reserve the right to, reverse a potentially harmful transfer.  If so, we will inform the owner and/or registered representative. You will bear any investment loss involved in a reversal.

 

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we reserve the right to delay or reject a transfer request at any time that we are unable to purchase or redeem shares of any of the portfolios available through Separate Account C, because of any refusal or restriction on purchases or redemptions of their shares on the part of the managers of the investment portfolios as a result of their own policies and procedures on market timing activities or other potentially abusive transfers.  If this occurs, we will attempt to contact you by telephone for further instructions.  If we are unable to contact you within 5 business days after We have been advised that your transfer request has been refused or delayed by the investment portfolio manager, the amount intended for transfer will be retained in or returned to the originating investment option.  You should also be aware that as required by Rule 22c-2 under the 1940 Act, We have entered into information sharing agreements with each of the fund companies whose portfolios are offered through the Contract.  Trading information of an owner is shared under these agreements as necessary for the fund companies to monitor portfolio trading and may include personal contract information, including names and social security numbers or other tax identification numbers.  As a result of this information sharing, a fund company may direct us to restrict an owner’s transactions if the fund company determines that the owner has violated the portfolio’s excessive/frequent trading policy.  This could include the fund company directing us to reject any allocations of premium or Contract value to the portfolio or all portfolios within the fund family.  We are contractually obligated to comply with all restrictions imposed by the portfolios. You should read the prospectuses of the portfolios for more details on their ability to refuse or restrict purchases or redemptions of their shares.

 

In our sole discretion, we may revise our Market Timing Procedures at any time without prior notice as we deem necessary or appropriate to better detect and deter frequent, programmed, large, or short-term transfers that may adversely affect other owners or portfolio shareholders, to comply with state or federal regulatory requirements, or to impose additional or alternate restrictions on market timers (such as dollar or percentage limits on transfers).  We may change our parameters to monitor for a different number of transfers with different time periods, and we may include other factors such as the size of transfers made by owners within given periods of time, as well as the number of “round trip” transfers into and out of particular investment options for purposes of applying the parameters used to detect potential market timing and other potentially harmful activity.  We may aggregate transfers made in two or more Contracts that We believe are connected (for example, two Contracts with the same owner, or owned by spouses, or owned by different partnerships, trusts, or corporations that are under common control, etc.).

 

We do not include transfers made pursuant to the DCA program and portfolio rebalancing program in these limitations. We may vary our market timing procedures from investment option to investment option, and may be more restrictive with regard to certain investment options than others.  We may not always apply these detection methods to investment options investing in portfolios that, in our judgment, would not be particularly attractive to market timers or otherwise susceptible to harm by frequent transfers.  Currently, We do not intend to apply these frequent trading detection methods or restrictions to portfolios that are open for frequent transfers, indicated by an “*” in the list shown on page 2 of this prospectus.


 

 

We reserve the right to place restrictions on the methods of implementing transfers for all owners that we believe might otherwise engage in trading activity that is harmful to others.  For example, we might only accept transfers by original “wet” owner signature conveyed through the U.S. mail (that is, we can refuse transfer requests submitted by phone, facsimile, e-mail or by any other electronic means, or overnight courier service). We also reserve the right to implement and administer redemption fees imposed by one or more of the portfolios in the future.

 

Owners seeking to engage in frequent, programmed, large, or short-term transfer activity may deploy a variety of strategies to avoid detection.  Our ability to detect and deter such transfer activity is limited by operational systems and technological limitations.  In addition, the terms of the contract may also limit our ability to restrict or deter harmful transfers.  Furthermore, the identification of owners determined to be engaged in transfer activity that may adversely affect other owners or portfolios’ shareholders involves judgments that are inherently subjective.  Accordingly, despite our best efforts, we cannot guarantee that our Market Timing Procedures will detect every potential market timer. Some market timers may get through our controls undetected and may cause dilution in unit value to others. We apply our Market Timing Procedures consistently to all owners without special arrangement, waiver, or exception.  We may vary our Market Timing Procedures among our other variable insurance products to account for differences in various factors, such as operational systems and Contract provisions.  In addition, because other insurance companies and/or retirement plans may invest in the portfolios, we cannot guarantee that the portfolios will not suffer harm from frequent, programmed large, or short-term transfers among investment options of variable policies issued by other insurance companies or among investment options available to retirement plan participants. 

 

Surrenders and Partial Withdrawals

 

You may withdraw all or part of your surrender value by sending us a written request at our Customer Service Center in good order.  The surrender value is the Separate Account accumulation value minus any quarterly Contract maintenance fees, if applicable, and any applicable surrender charge, if you elect one of the Optional Value Endorsements. In some states a state premium tax charge may also be deducted.  Surrenders may be restricted by a retirement plan under which you are covered.  Partial withdrawals must be made in amounts of $1,000 or more (except for systematic withdrawals described below) and cannot reduce your accumulation value to less than $500.  If a partial withdrawal results in your accumulation value becoming less than $500, then the entire surrender value must be withdrawn.  A full surrender request, regardless of the accumulation value, must be submitted in writing. We reserve the right to change this process at any time. For a full surrender, you must send in your Contract with your surrender request or sign a lost contract statement.

 

You may request partial withdrawals up to $25,000 via telephone, four times a calendar year per Contract, provided prior written authorization has been received by our Customer Service Center. You will be required to verify personally identifiable information at the time you request a partial withdrawal. If there are joint owners, both owners must be on the telephone at the time of request. 

 

Telephone authorization will remain in effect until we receive written notification from you to terminate this authorization. If the Contract has joint owners, both owners are required to sign the written notification to terminate telephone authorization. We, at our sole discretion, may discontinue this program at any time. There are some restrictions on telephone partial withdrawals; please call our Customer Service Center with any questions.

 

We may record telephone calls and use other procedures to verify information and confirm that instructions are genuine. We will not be liable for losses or expenses arising from telephone instructions reasonably believed to be genuine. We reserve the right to restrict, suspend or eliminate the use of, or modify the requirements for making, telephone partial withdrawals at any time.

 

Any required tax withholding and surrender charges, if applicable, will be deducted from the amount paid.  In addition, upon full surrender a quarterly Contract maintenance fee, if applicable, (and possibly a state premium tax charge) may also be subtracted.

 

Completed surrender or partial withdrawal requests received in good order at our Customer Service Center before the New York Stock Exchange closes for regular trading (usually, 3:00 p.m. Central Time) are priced at the unit value determined at the close of that regular trading session of the New York Stock Exchange. If we receive your completed surrender or partial withdrawal request in good order after the close of a valuation period, we will process the surrender request at the unit value determined at the close of the next valuation period.


 

 

We will generally pay the surrender or partial withdrawal amount from the Separate Account within seven days after we receive a properly completed surrender or partial withdrawal request in good order.  See “Administrative Procedures” on page 10. We may defer payment for more than seven days when:

·         trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted as defined by the SEC;

·         the New York Stock Exchange is closed (other than customary weekend and holiday closing);

·         an emergency exists or if for any reason it is not reasonably practicable to dispose of or fairly value the securities held in an investment option;

·         for such other periods as the SEC may by order permit for the protection of owners; or

·         your premium check has not cleared your bank.

 

See “When We Pay Proceeds from This Contract” on page 40.

 

If we defer payment for 30 or more days, then during the period of deferment, we will pay interest at the rate required by the jurisdiction in which this Contract is delivered.

 

Unless you specify otherwise, your partial withdrawal will be deducted from all investment options in the same proportion as your accumulation value bears to each investment option

 

Surrenders and partial withdrawals will generally have Federal income tax consequences that can include income tax penalties and tax withholding. Surrenders and partial withdrawals may be restricted under certain qualified contracts. You should consult with and rely on your tax advisor before making a surrender or partial withdrawal. See “FEDERAL TAX STATUS” on page 32.

 

Systematic Withdrawals

 

The systematic withdrawal feature allows you to have a portion of the accumulation value withdrawn automatically.  These payments can be made only: (1) while the owner is living, (2) before the maturity date, and (3) after the Free Look period.  You may elect this option by sending a properly completed service form to our Customer Service Center.  You may designate the systematic withdrawal amount and the period for systematic withdrawal payments.  You will also designate the desired frequency of the systematic withdrawals, which may be monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually. See your Contract for details on systematic withdrawal options and when each begins.

 

If you have elected the Optional 5-Year Value Endorsement, then a surrender charge of up to 7% (in excess of the free withdrawal amount) will be assessed. The surrender charge is based on the withdrawal amount and the amount of time that has elapsed since each payment. A surrender charge is assessed in the first 5 years following payment, even when the withdrawal is effected for systematic withdrawals. See “Free Withdrawal Amount” on page 27 for more information.

 

If you have elected the Optional 6-Year Value Endorsement, then a surrender charge of up to 7% (in excess of the free withdrawal amount) will be assessed. The surrender charge is based on the withdrawal amount and the amount of time that has elapsed since each payment. The surrender charge is assessed in the first 6 years following payment, even when the withdrawal is effected for systematic withdrawals. See “Free Withdrawal Amount” on page 27 for more information.

 

If you have elected the Optional 7-Year Value Endorsement, then a surrender charge of up to 8% (in excess of the free withdrawal amount) will be assessed. The surrender charge is based on the withdrawal amount and the amount of time that has elapsed since each payment. A surrender charge is assessed in the first 8 years following payment, even when the withdrawal is effected for systematic withdrawals. See “Free Withdrawal Amount” on page 27 for more information.

 

If the New York Stock Exchange is closed for regular trading on the day when the withdrawal is to be made, then we will process your withdrawal at the unit value determined at the close of the next valuation period.  The deduction caused by the systematic withdrawal will be allocated proportionately to your accumulation value in the investment options.

 

You can stop or modify the systematic withdrawals by sending us a written notice.  A proper written notice must include the consent of any effective assignee or irrevocable beneficiary, if applicable.

 


 

Each systematic withdrawal must be at least $100.  Each request for withdrawal amounts of less than $100 will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.  We reserve the right to change the frequency of payments or discontinue payments if the payment is less than $100.  Upon payment, we reduce your accumulation value by an amount equal to the payment proceeds.  In no event will the payment of a systematic withdrawal exceed the surrender value.  The Contract will automatically terminate if a systematic withdrawal causes the Contract’s surrender value to equal zero.

 

To the extent, if any, that there is gain in the Contract, systematic withdrawals generally are included in the owner’s gross income for tax purposes (as ordinary income) in the year in which the withdrawal occurs, and may be subject to a penalty tax of 10% before age 59 ½.  Additional terms and conditions for the systematic withdrawal program are set forth in your Contract and in the application for the program.

 

Dollar Cost Averaging

 

The Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) program enables you to make monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual transfers of a predetermined dollar amount from the DCA source account (any investment option) into one or more of the investment options. your accumulation value must be at least $10,000 to initiate the DCA program.  The minimum monthly amount to be transferred using DCA is $100.

 

This program may reduce the impact of market fluctuations by allocating monthly, as opposed to allocating the total amount at one time.  This plan of investing does not insure a profit or protect against a loss in declining markets. 

 

Only one active DCA program is allowed at a time.  You must complete the proper request form and send it (in good order) to our Customer Service Center, and there must be a sufficient amount in the DCA source account.  The  source account must have a minimum of $1200 beginning balance to start a DCA program. For any DCA, the minimum amount of time at set-up is 3 months. There is no maximum set-up time limit. We reserve the right to limit or change the minimum and maximum timeframes for the DCA program. You can get a sufficient amount by paying a premium with the DCA request form, allocating premiums, or transferring amounts to the DCA source account.   The DCA request form will specify:

·         the DCA source account from which transfers will be made,

·         the total monthly amount to be transferred to the other investment options, and

·         how that monthly amount is to be allocated among the investment options.

 

Once you elect DCA, additional premiums can be allocated to the DCA source account by sending them in with a DCA request form or written instructions.  Any premium payments received while the DCA program is in effect will be allocated using the allocation percentages from the DCA request form, unless you specify otherwise.  All amounts in the DCA source account will be available for transfer under the DCA program.

 

If it is requested when the Contract is issued, then DCA will start on the Contract anniversary of the second Contract month.  If it is requested after issue, then DCA will start on the Contract anniversary of the next Contract month after the request is received.  DCA will not begin until the end of the free look period.

 

You may stop the DCA program at any time by sending us written notice.  We reserve the right to end the DCA program by sending you one month’s notice.  You may not elect a DCA program with the Portfolio Rebalancing option.

 

We do not charge any specific fees for you to participate in a DCA program. 

 

Portfolio Rebalancing

 

The Portfolio Rebalancing program allows owners to have us automatically reset the percentage of accumulation value allocated to each investment option to a pre-set percentage level on a quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis.  The Portfolio Rebalancing program is not available when there is an active DCA program on the Contract. If you elect this option, then on the Contract anniversary date, we will transfer the amounts needed to “rebalance” the accumulation value to your specified percentages.  Rebalancing may result in transferring amounts from an investment option earning a relatively high return to one earning a relatively low return. Your accumulation value must be at least $10,000 to initiate a portfolio rebalancing program.

 


 

Portfolio rebalancing will remain in effect until we receive your written termination request.  We reserve the right to end the portfolio rebalancing program by sending you one month’s notice.  Contact us at our Customer Service Center to elect the portfolio rebalancing program.

 

There is no charge for portfolio rebalancing transfers.

 

Death Benefit

 

If the owner dies before the maturity date and while the Contract is still in force, we will pay the death benefit to the beneficiary once we receive (at our Customer Service Center) satisfactory proof of the owner’s death, an election of how the death benefit is to be paid, and any other documents or forms required all in good order.  Once you choose a Death Benefit, you cannot change it.

 

If an owner dies prior to the maturity date, then the death benefit must be paid within 5 years of the owner’s death (other than amounts payable to, or for the benefit of, the surviving spouse of the owner). For joint owners the death benefit is paid upon the first death.

 

Spousal Continuation is available only if the spouse (1) was married to the deceased owner, as recognized by Federal law, as of the date of the deceased owner’s death, and (2) is the sole primary beneficiary. A surviving  spouse may choose to treat the Contract as his/her own Contract. If your spouse chooses to continue the Contract under spousal continuance, by current company practice they will receive the death benefit. This amount would be allocated among Investment Options in accordance with the current allocations for the Contract and may be, under certain circumstances, considered earnings.

 

If the sole beneficiary is not the spouse, the surviving joint owner will be the designated primary beneficiary and any other beneficiaries on record will be treated as contingent beneficiaries.

 

When a death benefit is paid on the death of an owner or a joint owner and a payment option is selected, the payment option must be an annuity for the life of the payee or for a period extending no longer than the payee’s life expectancy, and payments must begin within one year of the date of death.

 

The amount of the death benefit will be calculated based on the greater of (a) accumulation value or (b) net premiums paid or (c) if elected, the enhanced death benefit value on the business day that our Customer Service Center receives a complete death benefit claim, which includes all of the following in good order: (a) proof of death acceptable to us, (b) an election of how the death benefit is to be paid, and (c) any other documents or forms that we require. If there are multiple beneficiaries, each beneficiary will receive their proportional share of the death proceeds as of the date we receive an election of how that beneficiary’s portion of the death benefit  is to be paid (or if later, when all good order requirements are met). Payment will include interest to the extent required by law. See “Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement” on page “26”.

 

After the date on which we receive an original death certificate or a copy of the death certificate via facsimile, the beneficiary has the option of transferring the accumulation value to a money market investment option before the date on which the first complete death benefit claim is received. If there are multiple beneficiaries then they all must join in such a transfer request. 

 

If the owner dies on or after the maturity date, then any remaining amounts, must be paid at least as rapidly as the benefits were being paid at the time of the owner’s death. Other rules relating to distributions at death apply to Qualified Contracts.

 

If any owner is a non-natural person, the death benefit is paid upon the death of an annuitant.

 

If joint owners die within 24 hours of one another, they are considered to have died simultaneously and the eldest is presumed to have died first.

 

Naming different persons as owner and annuitant can affect whether the death benefit is payable, the amount of the benefit, and who will receive it. Use care when naming owners, annuitants, and beneficiaries, and consult your registered representative if you have questions.  State premium taxes may be deducted from the death benefit proceeds.


 

 

Every state has unclaimed property laws which generally declare annuity contracts to be abandoned after a period of inactivity of 3 to 5 years from the contract’s maturity date or date the death benefit is due and payable.  For example, if the payment of a death benefit has been triggered, but, if after a thorough search, we are still unable to locate the beneficiary of the death benefit, or the beneficiary does not come forward to claim the death benefit in a timely manner, the death benefit will be paid to the abandoned property division or unclaimed property office of the state in which the beneficiary or the owner last resided, as shown on our books and records, or to our state of domicile.  This “escheatment” is revocable, however, and the state is obligated to pay the death benefit (without interest) if your beneficiary steps forward to claim the death benefit with the proper documentation.  To prevent such escheatment, it is important that you update your beneficiary designations, including full names and complete addresses, if and as they change.  Such updates should be communicated in writing, by telephone, or other approved electronic means at our Customer Service Center.

 

Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement

 

You may elect this endorsement only at the time of application. The maximum owners issue age for this endorsement is age 80, for joint owners, the issue age is the oldest of the joint owners and for a non-natural owner the issue age is based on the age of the annuitant.

 

If you elect the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement, each Contract anniversary after the first Contract year an annual step-up value be calculated and becomes the new Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement value for that Contract year. The Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement value steps up to the greatest of:

1)      The accumulation value or,

2)      net premium; or

3)      the annual step-up value from the most recent prior Contract anniversary, adjusted for any additional premiums and partial withdrawals.

The greatest of (1), (2) or (3) becomes the new Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement value for that Contract year.

 

The step-up process stops at the earlier of the age of 85 or death of the owner (or oldest owner for jointly owned Contracts). If the owner is a non-natural owner then the step-up stops at death of annuitant. After the step-up process stops, the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement value will continue to be increased for any additional premiums, and reduced pro-rata for any withdrawals. See “APPENDIX B – ENHANCED DEATH BENEFIT EXAMPLES” on page “58” for more information.

 

There currently is a charge of 0.30% per annum charge, prorated and charged daily, against all accumulation values held in the Separate Account for this endorsement.  You will incur this charge even during periods when the endorsement would pay no benefit. If the Contract to which this endorsement is attached is terminated, the daily charge will be deducted from the Contract’s accumulation value prior to the termination of the Contract.

 

The initial Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement value, at the time the Contract is issued, is equal to the initial premium(s) of the Contract that the endorsement is attached. On each Contract anniversary, the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement value will be reviewed for the annual step-up. The value of the step-up will be the greatest of:

1)      the accumulation value;

2)      the base Contract’s death benefit; or 

3)      the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement value immediately prior to the Contract anniversary.

 

Any partial withdrawals, including required minimum distributions, will reduce the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement by the same proportion the accumulation value was reduced by the partial withdrawal.

 

See “APPENDIX B – ENHANCED DEATH BENEFIT EXAMPLES” on page “58” for more information.

 

This endorsement will terminate:

1)      upon death of the owner. In the case of joint owners, upon the first death. In the case of a non-natural owner, upon death of the annuitant;  

2)      change in ownership including spousal continuation;

3)      the accumulation value reaches zero;

4)      if you surrender or annuitize your Contract; or


 

5)      on the date the Contract to which the endorsement is attached.

 

If the Contract to which this endorsement is attached is terminated, the daily charge will be deducted from the Contract’s accumulation value prior to the termination of the Contract.

 

The Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement value is only available as a death benefit and is not part of the accumulation value, surrender value or available for withdrawal. 

 

Optional Value Endorsement

 

If you elect the Optional 5-, 6- or 7-Year Value Endorsement on your application, you elect to add a 5-, 6- or 7-year surrender charge period (the number of years the surrender charge remains in effect as applied to each premium payment).  In exchange for a 5-, 6- or 7-year declining surrender charge for each premium payment, we will reduce the Separate Account annual expenses by 0.10% (5-year), 0.15% (6-year) or 0.20% (7-year) which is a percentage of the average daily accumulation value. See “Fees and Expenses” on page 11. This reduction will lower the total fees deducted from your Separate Account accumulation value. Electing this endorsement will benefit owners who do not surrender the Contract or take partial withdrawals, in excess of the annual free withdrawal amount, during the surrender charge period.

 

We reserve the right to lower the amount of this fee reduction, but in no event will the amount of the fee reduction be less than 0.00%. The amount of the fee reduction is set at the time the endorsement is elected—i.e., at Contract issue, and will remain in effect until the Contract is terminated. We will not change the amount of the fee reduction for in force Contracts.

 

You can only elect this endorsement when you purchase the Contract, (on your application). Once the endorsement is elected you cannot terminate the endorsement. The maximum issue age for the Optional Value Endorsement is 85 (the owner’s age).

Free Withdrawal Amount

Even if you elect an Optional Value Endorsement you may withdraw up to 10% of your remaining premiums (premiums paid less partial withdrawals on a dollar for dollar basis) each Contract year without incurring a surrender charge. We will allow the free withdrawal amount to be taken in multiple withdrawals each Contract year.  The free withdrawal amount is determined at the beginning of each Contract year on the Contract anniversary. If the free withdrawal amount is not withdrawn or if less than 10% is withdrawn, the amount not taken during the Contract year will not be carried over to subsequent years. A withdrawal may have Federal income tax consequences that can include income tax penalties and tax withholding. See “FEDERAL TAX STATUS” on page 32.

 

Please note: Owners who have the base contract only (without an Optional Value Endorsement) can make withdrawals at any time in any amount without imposition of a surrender charge.


 

 

Amounts withdrawn under the Contract to comply with IRS minimum distribution rules and paid under a life expectancy option will not be subject to a surrender charge. The free withdrawal provision pertaining to the IRS minimum distribution will be calculated solely on the accumulation value of this Contract.  Amounts withdrawn to comply with IRS minimum distribution rules will reduce the amount available under the free withdrawal amount.

 

If the total withdrawals exceed the free withdrawal amount, then surrender charges are applied on the withdrawal amount in excess of the free withdrawal amount. Before taking a withdrawal, you should consult a tax advisor to consider the tax consequences of a withdrawal on your variable annuity contract. See “FEDERAL TAX STATUS” on page 32.

 

 

CHARGES, FEES AND DEDUCTIONS

 

Mortality and Expense Risk Charge

 

We deduct a daily charge for mortality and expense risks currently at an effective annual rate to 1.00% of the accumulation value in the Separate Account.  We reserve the right to increase this charge; however, it will not exceed 1.50% per annum.  The investment option’s accumulation unit values reflect this charge.  We expect to profit from this charge.  We may use the profit for any purpose including paying distribution expenses.  However, the level of this charge is guaranteed for the life of the Contract and may not be increased after the Contract is issued. 

 

The mortality risk we bear arises, in part, from our obligation to make monthly annuity payments regardless of how long the annuitant or any individual may live.  These payments are guaranteed in accordance with the annuity tables and other provisions contained in your Contract.  This assures you that neither the longevity of the annuitant , nor an unanticipated improvement in general life expectancy, will have any adverse effect on the monthly annuity payments the annuitant will receive under the Contract.  Our obligation, therefore, relieves the annuitant from the risk that he or she will outlive the funds accumulated for retirement.  The mortality risk also arises, in part, because of the risk that the death benefit may be greater than the accumulation value.  We also assume the risk that other expense charges may be insufficient to cover the actual expenses we incur.

 

Asset Based Administration Charge

 

We currently deduct a daily charge for asset based administration expenses at an effective annual rate of 0.35% of the accumulation values in the Separate Account.  We reserve the right to increase this charge; however, it will not exceed 0.75% per annum.  We deduct this charge proportionally from each investment option.  This charge is for our record keeping and other expenses incurred in maintaining the Contracts.  However, the level of this charge is guaranteed for the life of the Contract and may not be increased after the Contract is issued.

 

Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement Charge

 

We currently deduct a daily charge for the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement at an effective annual rate of 0.30% of the accumulation values in the Separate Account. We deduct this charge proportionally from each investment option. However, this charge is guaranteed for the life of the Contract and may not be increased after the Contract is issued.

 

Quarterly Contract Maintenance Fee

 

We deduct a quarterly Contract maintenance fee of $10.  This fee is collected on each Contract quarter anniversary on or before the maturity date, and on surrender.  We reserve the right to increase this charge; however, it will not exceed $15 per Contract quarter.  If your accumulation value or net premium is greater than $50,000 on the Contract quarter anniversary or at full surrender, no quarterly Contract maintenance fee is charged.  If your accumulation value ever becomes insufficient to pay this charge, then your Contract will terminate without value.

 

Transfer Charge

 

We reserve the right to charge $15 per transfer for transfers in excess of 15 per Contract year. By current company practice we do not assess this charge. If assessed, this charge will be deducted from the amount that is transferred prior to the allocation to a different investment option. The fee is waived for transfers in connection with active DCA or automatic rebalancing programs.


 

 

Charges in the Portfolios

 

The fund companies charge their portfolios for managing investments and providing services.  The portfolios may also pay operating expenses.  Each portfolio’s charges and expenses vary. See the prospectus provided by the fund company for more information. 

 

In addition, certain investment options may impose liquidity fees and redemption fees on certain transactions (pursuant to SEC rules 2a-7 and 22c-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940). Any such fees will be passed through and charged to the applicable owners.

 

State Premium Taxes

 

Midland National reserves the right to deduct premium taxes from your surrender value at full surrender, death, maturity or annuitization a charge for any state premium taxes levied by a state or any other government entity.  State premium taxes currently levied by certain jurisdictions vary from 0% to 3.5% and is based on your current residence state.  This range is subject to change.  The states currently participating in this premium tax practice are California, Maine, Nevada, South Dakota, West Virginia, Wyoming and the territory of Puerto Rico.  These states and jurisdictions are subject to change.

 

Other Taxes

 

At the present time, we do not make any charges to the Separate Account for any federal, state, or local taxes (other than state premium taxes) that we incur which may be attributable to such Separate Account or to the Contracts.  We reserve the right to make a charge for any such tax or economic burden resulting from the application of the tax laws.

 

Optional Value Endorsement

 

If you elect the Optional 5-, 6- or 7-Year Value Endorsement,  we will reduce your LiveWell Variable Annuity Separate Account annual expenses by 0.10% (5-year from 1.35% per year to 1.25%), 0.15% (6-year from 1.35% per year to 1.20%) or 0.20% (7-year from 1.35% per year to 1.15%) in exchange for a 5-, 6- or 7-year declining surrender charge.  See “Fees and Expenses” on page  11. This reduction will lower the total fees deducted from your total Separate Account accumulation value. For more detailed information see “Optional Value Endorsement” on page 27.

 

We reserve the right to lower the amount of this fee reduction, but in no event will the amount of the fee reduction be less than 0.00%. The amount of the fee reduction is set at the time the endorsement is elected—i.e., at Contract issue, and will remain in effect until the Contract is terminated. We will not change the amount of the fee reduction for in force Contracts.

 

Surrender Charges for the Optional Value Endorsement

If you elect the Optional Value Endorsement, we will deduct applicable surrender charges from any surrender or partial withdrawal of premiums (including a surrender to effect an annuity and on systematic withdrawals) that exceeds the free withdrawal amount.  This charge partially reimburses us for the costs of selling and distributing this Contract.  These include commissions and the costs of preparing sales literature and printing prospectuses.  If the surrender charge is insufficient to cover all distribution expenses, then the deficiency will be met from our surplus that may be, in part, derived from mortality and expense risk charges (described above). 

 

The surrender charge will be based on the length of time between premium payments and partial withdrawals or surrender.  When determining the applicable surrender charge, the amount subject to a surrender charge will be deducted from premium payments on a First-In, First-Out (FIFO) basis. When calculating surrender charges, earnings are defined as the excess of the accumulation value over the sum of remaining premiums. Any withdrawals will be allocated to remaining premiums first on a FIFO basis and second to earnings, if any.  In determining what the surrender charge is, we do not include earnings, although the actual withdrawal to pay it may come from earnings.

 

For purposes of calculating surrender charges, we assume that surrenders and partial withdrawals are made in the following order:


 

1)      First from premium payments no longer subject to a surrender charge;

2)      Then from the free withdrawal amount on a FIFO basis;

3)      Then from premium payments subject to a surrender charge on a FIFO basis; and

4)      Earnings, if any.

 

The length of time between each premium payment and surrender or withdrawal determines the amount of the surrender charge applied to that respective premium payment.  Premium payments are considered withdrawn in the order that they were received.

 

The surrender charge schedule for the Optional Value Endorsements are as follows:

            (a)        payment of death benefits;

            (b)        exercise of the free look right;

            (c)        withdrawal less than or equal to the free withdrawal amount.

 

The surrender value cannot be greater than the accumulation value, but in no event will it be less than the minimum required by the laws of the state in which this Contract is delivered. At the time of withdrawal, if your accumulation value is less than your remaining premium, the surrender charge will still be assessed (measured by) against the full remaining premium  amount. 

 

Amounts withdrawn under the Contract to comply with IRS minimum distribution rules and paid under a life expectancy option will not be subject to a surrender charge. The free withdrawal provision pertaining to the IRS minimum distribution will be calculated solely on the accumulation value of this Contract.  Amounts withdrawn to comply with IRS minimum distribution rules will reduce the amount available under the free withdrawal amount.

 

The following examples are provided to help you better understand how the surrender charges are assessed to premium payments with the Optional Value Endorsement.

 

Example 1: A Contract with the Optional Value Endorsement with a single premium of $100,000, no additional premium payments and there are no partial withdrawals taken. In this example, the $10,000 shown in the calculations below is the free withdrawal amount.  The surrender charge amount for a full surrender of this Contract, in the applicable time period (the first column)  is given in the second column of the table below.

Please note that these surrender charges apply even if the accumulation value has declined to less than premium of $100,000 due to poor investment performance (and fees and expenses), since the charge is a percentage of the premium deemed withdrawn, not a percentage of the accumulation value withdrawn.

 

Example 2: A Contract with the Optional Value Endorsement with an initial premium of $100,000.  An additional premium of $50,000 is made on the 3nd Contract anniversary.  If there are no additional premiums beyond the two premiums stated, and there are no partial withdrawals taken, then the surrender charge amount for a full surrender of this Contract, in the applicable time period (the first column), is given in the second column of the table below.

FEDERAL TAX STATUS

 

Introduction

 

NOTE:  We have prepared the following information on federal income taxes as a general discussion of the subject.  It is not intended as tax advice to any individual.  No attempt is made to consider any applicable state or other income tax laws, any state and local estate or inheritance tax, or other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of distributions under the Contract.  You should consult your own tax advisor about your own circumstances.  We have included an additional discussion regarding taxes in the SAI. 

 

Annuity Contracts in General

 

Deferred annuities are a way of setting aside money for future needs like retirement.  Congress recognized how important saving for retirement is and provided special rules in the Internal Revenue Code for annuities.

 

Simply stated, these rules provide that generally you will not be taxed on the gain, if any, on the money held in your annuity contract until you take the money out.  This is referred to as tax deferral.  There are different rules as to how you will be taxed depending on how you take the money out and the type of Contract – qualified or nonqualified (discussed below).

 

You will generally not be taxed on increases in the value of your Contract until a distribution occurs – either as a surrender or as annuity payments.


 

 

When a non-natural person (e.g., corporation or certain other entities other than tax-qualified trusts) owns a Non-Qualified Contract, the contract will generally not be treated as an annuity for tax purposes and any increase in the excess of the account value over the investment in the Contract during the taxable year must generally be included in income. There are some exceptions to this rule and a prospective owner that is not a natural person should discuss these with a tax advisor.

 

Qualified and Non-Qualified Contracts

If you invest in a variable annuity as part of an individual retirement plan, your annuity is called a Qualified Contract. If your annuity is independent of any formal retirement or pension plan, it is termed a Non-Qualified Contract. The tax rules applicable to qualified contracts vary according to the type of retirement plan and the terms and conditions of the plan.

 

Qualified contracts are issued in connection with the plans listed below.  There is additional information about qualified contracts in the SAI.

·         Individual Retirement Annuity (IRA): A traditional IRA allows individuals to make contributions, which may be deductible, to the annuity.  Distributions from an IRA are generally subject to tax and, if made before age 59½, may be subject to a 10% penalty tax.

·         Roth IRAs, as described in Code section 408A, permit certain eligible individuals to make non-deductible contributions to a Roth IRA in cash or as a rollover or transfer from another Roth IRA or other IRA.  A rollover from or conversion of an IRA to a Roth IRA is generally subject to tax.  The owner may wish to consult a tax adviser before combining any converted amounts with any other Roth IRA contributions, including any other conversion amounts from other tax years.  Distributions from a Roth IRA generally are not taxed, except that, once aggregate distributions exceed contributions to the Roth IRA, income tax and a 10% penalty tax may apply to distributions made (1) before age 59½ (subject to certain exceptions) or (2) during the five taxable years starting with the year in which the first contribution is made to any Roth IRA.  A 10% penalty tax may apply to amounts attributable to a conversion from an IRA if they are distributed during the five taxable years beginning with the year in which the conversion was made.

 

Distributions that are rolled over to another IRA within 60 days are not immediately taxable, however only one such rollover is permitted each year. An individual can make only one rollover from an IRA to another (or the same) IRA in any 12-month period, regardless of the number of IRAs that are owned. The limit will apply by aggregating all of an individual’s IRAs, including SEP and SIMPLE IRAs as well as traditional and Roth IRAs, effectively treating them as one IRA for purposes of the limit.  This limit does not apply to direct trustee-to-trustee transfers or conversions of an IRA to a Roth IRA.

 

Minimum Distribution Rules and Eligible Rollover Distributions

Qualified contracts have minimum distribution rules that govern the timing and amount of distributions.  If you are attempting to satisfy these rules before the maturity date, the value of any enhanced death benefit may need to be included in calculating the amount required to be distributed. Consult with and rely upon your tax advisor. In addition, the income for a specified period option may not always satisfy minimum required distribution rules. Consult with and rely upon your tax advisor before electing this option. 

 

Diversification and Distribution Requirements

The Internal Revenue Code provides that the underlying investments for a nonqualified variable annuity must satisfy certain diversification requirements in order to be treated as an annuity.  The annuity must also meet certain distribution requirements at the death of the annuitant or an owner in order to be treated as an annuity contract. These diversification and distribution requirements are discussed in the SAI.  Midland National may modify the contract to attempt to maintain favorable tax treatment.

 

Surrenders and Partial Withdrawals

If you make a partial withdrawal from a Non-Qualified Contract before the annuity commencement date, the Internal Revenue Code treats that surrender as first coming from gain and then from your premium payments.  When you make a partial withdrawal, you are taxed on the amount of the surrender that is gain.  If you make a full surrender, you are generally taxed on the amount that your surrender proceeds exceed the “investment in the contract,” which is generally your premiums paid (adjusted for any prior partial withdrawals that came out of the premiums). Withdrawals from Non-Qualified Contracts to pay third party registered investment advisor fees are treated as taxable withdrawals.  Different rules apply for annuity payments and under Qualified Contracts.  See “Annuity Payments” below.

 


 

In the case of a withdrawal under a Qualified Contract, a ratable portion of the amount received is taxable, generally based on the ratio of the “investment in the contract” to the individual’s total account balance or accrued benefit under the retirement plan.  The “investment in the contract” generally equals the amount of your non-deductible premium payments.  In many cases, the “investment in the contract” under a Qualified Contract can be zero. 

 

The Internal Revenue Code also provides that surrendered gain may be subject to a penalty.  The amount of the penalty is equal to 10% of the amount that is includable in income.  Some surrenders will be exempt from the penalty.  In general, in the case of a distribution from a Non-Qualified Contract, this includes any amount:

·         paid on or after the taxpayer reaches age 59½;

·         paid after an owner dies;

·         paid if the taxpayer becomes totally disabled (as that term is defined in the Internal Revenue Code);

·         paid in a series of substantially equal payments made annually (or more frequently) under a lifetime annuity;

·         paid under an immediate maturity; or

·         which come from premium payments made prior to August 14, 1982.

 

Special rules may be applicable in connection with the exceptions enumerated above. Also, additional exceptions apply to distributions from a Qualified Contract. You should consult your tax adviser with regard to exceptions from the penalty tax.

 

Multiple Contracts

All nonqualified deferred contracts that are issued by Midland National (or its affiliates) to the same owner during any calendar year are treated as one annuity for purposes of determining the amount includable in the owner’s income when a taxable distribution occurs. 

 

Withholding

Distributions from Qualified and Non-Qualified Contracts are generally subject to withholding for your federal income tax liability.  The withholding rate varies according to the type of distribution and your tax status except with respect to eligible rollover distributions, as described above. You will be provided the opportunity to elect not to have tax withheld from distributions when allowed by law.

 

Annuity Payments

Although the tax consequences may vary depending on the annuity payment option you select, in general, for Non-Qualified and certain Qualified Contracts, only a portion of the annuity payments you receive will be includable in your gross income.

 

In general, the excludable portion of each annuity payment you receive will be determined by dividing the “investment in the contract” on the maturity date by the total expected value of the annuity payments for the term of the payments.  This is the percentage of each annuity payment that is excludable.

 

The remainder of each annuity payment is includable in gross income.  Once the “investment in the contract” has been fully recovered, the full amount of any additional annuity payments is includable in gross income.

 

If, after annuitization , annuity payments stop because an annuitant  has died, the excess (if any) of the “investment in the contract” as of the annuitization over the aggregate amount of annuity payments received that was excluded from gross income is generally allowable as a deduction for your last taxable year.

 

Partial Annuitization

If part of an annuity contract’s value is applied to an annuity option that provides payments for one or more lives and for a period of at least ten years, those payments may be taxed as annuity payments instead of withdrawals.  None of the payment options under the Contract are intended to qualify for this "partial annuitization" treatment and, if you apply only part of the value of the Contract to a payment option, we will treat those payments as withdrawals for tax purposes.

 

Medicare Tax

Distributions from non-qualified annuity contracts will be considered "investment income" for purposes of the Medicare tax on investment income.  Thus, in certain circumstances, a 3.8% tax may be applied to some or all of the taxable portion of distributions (e.g., earnings) to individuals whose income exceeds certain threshold amounts.   Please consult a tax advisor for more information. 


 

 

Definition of Spouse under Federal Law

The Contract provides that upon your death, a surviving spouse may have certain continuation rights that he or she may elect to exercise for the Contract’s death benefit and any joint-life coverage under an optional living benefit.  All Contract provisions relating to spousal continuation are available only to a person who meets the definition of “spouse” under federal law.  The U.S. Supreme Court has held that same-sex marriages must be permitted under state law and that marriages  recognized under state law will be recognized for federal law purposes.  Domestic partnerships and civil unions that are not recognized as legal marriages under state law, however, will not be treated as marriages under federal law.  Consult a tax advisor for more information on this subject.

 

Annuity Contracts Purchased by Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Corporations

The discussion above provided general information regarding U.S. federal income tax consequences to annuity owners that are U.S. persons.  Taxable distributions made to owners who are not U.S. persons will generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax withholding at a 30% rate, unless a lower treaty rate applies.  In addition, such distributions may be subject to state and/or municipal taxes and taxes that may be imposed by the owner’s country of citizenship or residence. Additional withholding may occur with respect to entity purchasers (including foreign corporations, partnerships, and trusts) that are not U.S. residents. Prospective foreign owners are advised to consult with a qualified tax advisor regarding U.S., state, and foreign taxation for any annuity contract purchase.

 

Taxation of Death Benefit Proceeds

Amounts may be distributed from the Contract because of the death of the annuitant (only if the owner is a non-natural person) or an owner. Generally, such amounts should be includable in the income of the recipient:

·         if distributed in a lump sum, these amounts are taxed in the same manner as a full surrender; or

·         if distributed under an annuity payment option, these amounts are taxed in the same manner as annuity payments.

 

Transfers, Assignments or Exchange of Contracts

A transfer of ownership or absolute assignment of a Contract, the designation of an annuitant or payee or other beneficiary who is not also the owner, the selection of certain maturity dates, or a change of annuitant, may result in certain income or gift tax consequences to the owner that are beyond the scope of this discussion.  An owner contemplating any such transfer, assignment, selection, or change should contact a competent tax advisor with respect to the potential tax effects of such a transaction.

 

Transfers of Non-Qualified Contracts for less than full and adequate consideration to the owner at the time of such transfer, will trigger taxable income on the gain in the Contract, with the transferee getting a step-up in basis for the amount included in the owner’s income.  This provision does not apply to transfers between spouses or transfers incident to a divorce.

 

Possible Tax Law Changes

Although the likelihood of legislative changes is uncertain, there is always the possibility that the tax treatment of the Contract could change by legislation or otherwise.  You should consult a tax advisor with respect to legal developments and their effect on the Contract.

 

Federal Estate, Gift and Generation-Skipping Transfer Taxes

While no attempt is being made to discuss the Federal estate tax implications of the Contract, a purchaser should keep in mind that the value of an annuity contract owned by a decedent and payable to a beneficiary by virtue of surviving the decedent is included in the decedent’s gross estate.  Depending on the terms of the annuity contract, the value of the annuity included in the gross estate may be the value of the lump sum payment payable to the designated beneficiary or the actuarial value of the payments to be received by the beneficiary.  Consult with and rely on an estate planning advisor for more information. 

 

Under certain circumstances, the Code may impose a generation-skipping transfer (“GST”) tax when all or part of an annuity contract is transferred to, or a death benefit is paid to, an individual two or more generations younger than the Owner.  Regulations issued under the Code may require us to deduct the tax from your Contract, or from any applicable payment, and pay it directly to the IRS.


 

 

The potential application of these taxes underscores the importance of seeking guidance from a qualified adviser to help ensure that your estate plan adequately addresses your needs and those of your beneficiaries under all possible scenarios.

 

Annuity Purchases by Residents of Puerto Rico

The Internal Revenue Service has announced that income received by residents of Puerto Rico under life insurance or annuity contracts issued by a Puerto Rico branch of a United States life insurance company is U.S.-source income that is generally subject to United States Federal income tax.

 

Foreign Tax Credits

We may benefit from any foreign tax credits attributable to taxes paid by certain portfolios to foreign jurisdictions to the extent permitted under Federal tax law.

 

Maturity Date

 

The maturity date is the date on which income payments will begin under the annuity option you have selected.  The earliest possible maturity date under the Contract is the 1st Contract anniversary at which time you may annuitize your full accumulation value (less any state premium taxes).  The maximum maturity date is the Contract anniversary immediately following the annuitant’s 115th birthday.  You may change the maturity date to an earlier Contract anniversary by sending written notice to our Customer Service Center.  We must receive your written notice at least 30 days prior to the original maturity date. The selection of a maturity date at the annuitant’s advanced age could have tax consequences so you should consult a tax adviser.

 

If you have not previously specified otherwise and have not elected certain systematic withdrawal options, then on the maturity date you may:

 

1.       take the accumulation value, less any state premium tax and any surrender charge, in one lump sum, or

2.       convert the accumulation value, less any state premium tax and any surrender charge,  into an annuity payable to the payee under one of the payment options as described below.

 

Electing an Annuity Payment Option

You may apply the proceeds of a surrender to affect an annuity payment option.  Unless you choose otherwise, on the maturity date your accumulation value (less any state premium taxes and any surrender charge) will be applied to a 10 year certain and life fixed annuity payment option.  The first monthly annuity payment will be made within one month after the maturity date

 

Only fixed payment options are available. Variable payment options are not available under this Contract. Fixed payment options are obligations of the insurer’s general account and are subject to the insurer’s claims-paying ability.

 

Currently, the payment options are only available if the proceeds applied are $2,000 or more and the annual payment is more than $240.  We reserve the right to change the payment frequency so that payments are at least $100.

 

The annuitant’s actual age will affect each payment amount for annuity payment options involving life income.  The amount of each annuity payment to older annuitants will be greater than for younger annuitants because payments to older annuitants are expected to be fewer in number.  For annuity payment options that do not involve life payment, the length of the payment period will affect the amount of each payment.  With a shorter period, the amount of each annuity payment will be greater. Payments that occur more frequently will be smaller than those occurring less frequently.

 

The payee or any other person who is entitled to receive payments may name a beneficiary to receive any amount that we would otherwise pay to that person’s estate if that person died.   The person who is entitled to receive payment may change the beneficiary at any time.

 

Annuity payment options will be subject to our rules at the time of selection.  We must approve any arrangements that involve a payee who is not a natural person (for example, a corporation), or a payee who is a fiduciary or an assignee.  Also, the details of all arrangements will be subject to our rules at the time the arrangements take effect.  This includes:

·         rules on the minimum amount we will pay under an option;


 

·         minimum amounts for installment payments, surrender or commutation rights (your rights to receive payments over time, for which we may offer you a lump sum payment);

·         the naming of people who are entitled to receive payment and their beneficiaries; and

·         the ways of proving age, gender, and survival.

 

You must elect the payment option at least 30 days before the maturity date.

 

If your Contract is a Qualified Contract, payment options without a life contingency may not satisfy minimum required distribution rules.  Consult a tax advisor before electing such an option.

 

Fixed Payment Options

Payments under the fixed options are not affected by the investment experience of any investment option.  The accumulation value (less any state premium taxes and any surrender charge) as of the maturity date will be applied to the fixed option selected.  We guarantee interest under the fixed options at a rate of 1.00% a year.  We may also credit interest under the fixed payment options at a rate that is above the 1.00% guaranteed rate (this is at our complete discretion).  Thereafter, interest or payments are fixed according to the annuity option chosen.

 

Payment Options

The following four payout options are available:

1.       Income for Specified Period: We pay installments for a specified period of 5 to 20 years.  We will pay the amount applied in equal installments plus applicable interest (excess interest may be paid at our discretion). This option may not satisfy required minimum distribution rules for qualified contracts.  Consult a tax advisor before electing this option under a qualified contract. However, by current company practice we may offer other options.

2.       Income for a Specified Amount: We pay income of the specified amount until the principal and interest are exhausted.  The specified amount is subject to the limitation that principal and interest must be payable for at least 5 years and must be exhausted at the end of 20 years.

3.       Payment of Life Income: We will pay monthly income for life.  You may choose from 1 of 2 ways to receive the income:

a.       Life Annuity: We will pay monthly income for life.  With a life annuity payment option, payments will only be made as long as the annuitant is alive.  Therefore, if the annuitant dies after the first payment, then only one payment will be made.

b.       Life Annuity With Certain Period: We will pay equal monthly payments for either 120 or 240 guaranteed payments, and then for as long as the annuitant is living thereafter. The period certain options are 10 and 20 years. However, by current company practice we may offer other options.

4.       Joint and Survivor Income: We will make monthly payments until the last surviving payee’s death.  Therefore, if both payees die after the first payment, then only one payment will be made.  The annuitant must be at least 50 years old and the beneficiary/payee must be at least 45 years old at the time of the first monthly payment.

Phone: (877) 586-0240 (toll-free)

 

Please note all inquiries, correspondence and premium payments should be sent to our Customer Service Center.

 


 

Midland National is a subsidiary of Sammons Enterprises, Inc., Dallas, Texas.  Sammons Enterprises has controlling or substantial stock interests in a large number of other companies engaged in the areas of insurance, corporate services, and industrial distribution.

 

Our Financial Condition

As an insurance company, we are required by state insurance regulation to hold a specified amount of reserves in order to meet all of the contractual obligations of our general account to our owners.  We monitor our reserves so that we hold sufficient amounts to cover actual or expected contract and claims payments.  It is important to note, however, that there is no guarantee that we will always be able to meet our claims-paying obligations, and that there are risks to purchasing any insurance product.

 

State insurance regulators also require insurance companies to maintain a minimum amount of capital, which acts as a cushion in the event that the insurer suffers a financial impairment, based on the inherent risks in the insurer's operations.  These risks include those associated with losses that we may incur as the result of defaults on the payment of interest or principal on our General Account assets, as well as the loss in market value of those investments.  We may also experience liquidity risk if our General Account assets cannot be readily converted into cash to meet obligations to our owners or to provide collateral necessary to finance our business operations.

 

We encourage both existing and prospective owners to read and understand our financial statements, which are included in the Statement of Additional Information ("SAI").  You can obtain a free copy of the SAI by writing to us at our Customer Service Center, calling us at (866) 747-3421, or faxing us at (866) 511-7038.  The overnight mailing address is Midland National Customer Service Center, Mail Zone 547, 5801 SW 6th Avenue, Topeka, Kansas 66636-1001. 

 

Portfolio Voting Rights

 

We invest the assets of our Separate Account investment options in shares of the portfolios.  Midland National is the legal owner of the shares and has the right to vote on certain matters.  Among other things, we may vote:

·         to elect the Funds’ or Trust’s Board of Directors/Trustees,

·         to ratify the selection of independent auditors for the portfolios,

·         on any other matters described in the portfolios’ current prospectuses or requiring a vote by shareholders under the Investment Company Act of 1940, and

·         in some cases, to change the investment objectives and contracts.

 

Even though we own the shares, we may give you the opportunity to tell us how to vote the number of shares that are allocated to your Contract.

 

The funds companies will determine if and how often shareholder meetings are held.  As we receive notice of these meetings, we will ask for your voting instructions.  The portfolios are not required to and generally do not hold a meeting in any given year.

 

If we do not receive instructions in time from all owners, then we currently intend to vote those shares in the same proportion as we vote shares for which we have received instructions in that portfolio.  We currently intend to vote any portfolio shares that we alone are entitled to vote in the same proportions that owners vote. The effect of this proportional voting is that a small number of owners may control the outcome of a vote. If the federal securities laws or regulations or interpretations of them change so that we are permitted to vote shares of the portfolio in our own right or to restrict owner voting, then we may do so.

 

How We Determine Your Voting Shares

 

You may participate in voting only on matters concerning the portfolios in which your accumulation value has been invested.  We determine your voting shares in each investment option by dividing the amount of your accumulation value allocated to that investment option by the net asset value of one share of the corresponding portfolio. This is determined as of the record date set by the Fund’s/Trust’s Board of Directors/Trustees for the shareholders meeting.

 

If you have a voting interest, then we will provide you proxy material and a form for giving us voting instructions.  In certain cases, we may disregard instructions relating to changes in the portfolio’s adviser or the investment adviser contracts of the portfolios.


 

 

Voting Privileges of Participants in Other Companies

 

Other insurance companies own shares in the portfolios to support their variable life insurance and variable annuity products.  We do not foresee any disadvantage to this.  Nevertheless, each Fund’s/Trust’s Board of Directors/Trustees will monitor events to identify conflicts that may arise and determine appropriate action.  If we disagree with any portfolio action, then we will see that appropriate action is taken to protect our owners.  If we ever believe that any of the portfolios are so large as to materially impair its investment performance, then we will examine other investment options.

 

Our Reports to Owners

 

We send you a quarterly report within 31 days after the end of each calendar quarter showing the Contract accumulation value, surrender value, and the death benefit as of the end of the calendar quarter.  The report will also show the allocation of your accumulation value and reflects amounts deducted from or added to the accumulation value since the last report.

 

Confirmation notices will be sent to you for premiums, partial withdrawals, surrenders, transfers of amounts between investment options and certain other financial transactions within 5 business days of processing.

 

You have 30 days to notify our Customer Service Center of any errors or discrepancies. You must notify us of any errors within 30 days of the reporting. We will review and potentially correct any errors. In the absence of such notice, you shall be deemed to have accepted the reported transaction(s) and relieved us of any related claim or liability.

 

We also currently intend to send you semi-annual reports with financial information on the portfolios.

 

Contract Periods, Anniversaries

 

We measure Contract years, Contract months, Contract quarters, and Contract anniversaries from the issue date shown on your Contract’s information page.  Each Contract month, Contract quarter and Contract year begins on the same day in each month, quarter and year respectively.  For this purpose, if that date is not a calendar date in every month, then we look forward to the first day of the next calendar month.

 

Dividends

 

We do not pay any dividends on the variable annuity Contract described in this prospectus.

 

 

Change of Address Notification

 

To protect you from fraud and theft, we may verify any changes in address you request by sending a confirmation of the change to both your old and new addresses.  We may also call you to verify the change of address.

 

Modification to Your Contract

 

Upon notice to you, we may modify your Contract to:

(a)    permit the Contract or the Separate Account to comply with any applicable law or regulation issued by a government agency;

(b)    assure continued qualification of the Contract under the Internal Revenue Code or other federal or state laws relating to retirement annuities or variable annuity contracts;

(c)    reflect a change in the operation of the Separate Account; or

(d)    provide additional investment options.

 

In the event of such modifications, we will make an appropriate endorsement to the Contract.

 

Your Beneficiary

 


 

You name your beneficiary in your Contract application.  The beneficiary is entitled to the death benefit of the Contract.  A beneficiary is revocable unless otherwise stated in the beneficiary designation.  You may change a revocable beneficiary during the owner’s lifetime.  We must receive written notice (signed and dated) informing us of the change.  Upon receipt and acceptance at our Customer Service Center, a change takes effect as of the date that the written notice is recorded by us.  We will not be liable for any payment made before we receive and accept the written notice.  If no primary beneficiary is living when the owner dies, the death benefit will be paid to the contingent beneficiary, if any.  If no beneficiary is living when the owner dies, then we will pay the death benefit to the owner’s estate.

 

If the sole beneficiary is not the spouse, the surviving joint owner will be the designated primary beneficiary and any other beneficiaries on record will be treated as contingent beneficiaries.

 

Assigning Your Contract

 

You may assign your rights in a Non-Qualified Contract.  You must send a copy of the assignment to our Customer Service Center.  The assignment does not take effect until we accept and approve it.  We reserve the right, except to the extent prohibited by applicable laws, regulations, or actions of the state insurance commissioner, to refuse assignments or transfers at any time on a non-discriminatory basis. We are not responsible for the validity of the assignment or for any payment we make or any action we take before we record notice of the assignment.  An absolute assignment is a change of ownership.  There may be tax consequences.

 

This Contract is not designed for resale, speculation, arbitrage, viatical settlements or any other type of collective investment scheme.  This Contract may not be traded on any stock exchange or secondary market.

 

When We Pay Proceeds from This Contract

 

We will generally pay any death benefits, withdrawals, or surrenders within seven days after receiving the required form(s) in good order at our Customer Service Center.

 

We may delay payment or transfers for one or more of the following reasons:

·         We cannot determine the amount of the payment,

·         the New York Stock Exchange is closed,

·         trading in securities has been restricted by the SEC, 

·         an emergency exists or if for any reason it is not reasonably practicable to dispose of or fairly value the securities held in an investment option,

·         The SEC by order permits us to delay payment to protect our owners, or

·         Your premium check(s) have not cleared your bank.

 

If, pursuant to SEC rules, any portfolio suspends payment of redemption proceeds including, in the case of a money market fund investment option, in connection with liquidation of the underlying portfolio or as a result of portfolio liquidity levels then we will delay payment of any transfer (including a transfer under a DCA program), partial withdrawal, surrender, or death benefit from the corresponding investment option until the suspension of redemptions is lifted or the portfolio pays redemption proceeds.

 

Federal laws designed to counter terrorism and prevent money laundering by criminals might in certain circumstances require us to reject a premium payment and/or “freeze” an owner’s account.  If these laws apply in a particular situation, we would not be allowed to process any request for withdrawals, surrenders, or death benefits, make transfers, or continue making annuity payments.  If a Contract or investment option is frozen, the applicable accumulation value would be moved to a special segregated interest bearing account and held in that account until we receive instructions from the appropriate federal regulator.  We may also be required to provide information about you and your Contract to the government agencies and departments.

 

Distribution of the Contracts

 

We have entered into a distribution agreement with our affiliate, Sammons Financial Network, LLC (“Sammons Financial Network”) for the distribution and sale of the Contracts.  Sammons Financial Network is a Delaware limited liability company and its principal office is located at 4546 Corporate Drive, Suite 100, West Des Moines, IA 50266.  Sammons Financial Network is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Sammons Enterprises, Inc., of Dallas, Texas, the ultimate parent company of Midland National Life Insurance Company.  Sammons Financial Network may enter into written sales agreements with other broker-dealers (“selling firms”) for the sale of the Contracts.  We pay commissions to Sammons Financial Network for sales of the Contracts.


 

 

Sales commissions may vary, but the maximum commission payable in the first year for contract sales with the optional value endorsement is up to 6.50%.  If you do not elect an Optional Value Endorsement we will pay up to 1.00% of premium payments and a 1.00% trail commission is also paid starting in the second year of the Contract based on the accumulation value. Where lower commissions may be  paid on premium payments, we may also pay trail commissions. We may also pay additional amounts and reimburse additional expenses of Sammons Financial Network based on various factors. 

 

We also pay for Sammons Financial Network’s operating and other expenses, including the following sales expenses: sales representative training allowances; compensation and bonuses for the Sammons Financial Network’s management team; advertising expenses; and all other expenses of distributing the Contracts. 

 

Sammons Financial Network pays selling firms all or a portion of the commissions received for their sales of  the Contract.  Registered representatives and their managers are also eligible for various cash benefits, such as bonuses, insurance benefits and financing arrangements, and non-cash compensation items that we may provide jointly with Sammons Financial Network.

 

Non-cash items that we and Sammons Financial Network may provide include conferences, seminars and trips (including travel, lodging and meals in connection therewith), entertainment, merchandise and other similar items.

 

A portion of the payments made to selling firms may be passed on to their registered representatives in accordance with their internal compensation programs.  Those programs may also include other types of cash and non-cash compensation and other benefits.  Ask your registered representative for further information about what your registered representative and the selling firm for which he or she works may receive in connection with your purchase of a Contract.

 

In addition to ordinary commissions, Sammons Financial Network operating and other expenses and non-cash items, we provide payments to certain third parties for training, product development, marketing and development efforts with selling firms, and other wholesaling and relationship management services.  It is possible that these third parties, or their personnel, may also act as your registered investment advisor providing advice with respect to portfolio allocations in the Contract.  Please be certain to review your registered investment advisor’s Form ADV Part 2A and 2B carefully for disclosure about their compensation and conflicts of interest in connection with the Contracts.   Also note that your investment advisor could also be the broker-dealer, or a registered representative of the broker-dealer, who sold you the Contract; in that case, they would also receive commissions and other compensation for selling you the Contract, in addition to any investment advisory fees that you pay to your registered investment advisor (either directly or through partial withdrawals  of your accumulation value in the Contract).   

 

We intend to recoup commissions and other sales expenses indirectly through the following fees and charges deducted under the Contract: (a) the mortality and expense risks charge; (b) asset based administration charges, and (c) payments, if any, received from the investment options, their distributors, service providers and/or managers.  Commissions and other incentives or payments described above are not charged directly to you or the Separate Account but they are reflected in the fees and charges that you do pay directly or indirectly.

 

Regulation

 

We are regulated and supervised by the Iowa Insurance Department.  We are subject to the insurance laws and regulations in every jurisdiction where we sell insurance and annuity contracts.  The provisions of this Contract may vary somewhat from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

 

We submit annual reports on our operations and finances to insurance officials in all the jurisdictions where we sell insurance and annuity contracts.  The officials are responsible for reviewing our reports to be sure that we are financially sound and are complying with the applicable laws and regulations.  We are also subject to various federal securities laws and regulations.

 


 

Cybersecurity Risks

 

We rely heavily on interconnected computer systems and digital data to conduct our variable product business activities.  Because our variable product business is highly dependent upon the effective operation of our computer systems and those of our business partners, our business is potentially vulnerable to disruptions from utility outages and other problems, and susceptible to operational and information security risks resulting from information systems failure (e.g., hardware and software malfunctions) and cyberattacks.  These risks include, among other things, the theft, misuse, corruption and destruction of data maintained online or digitally, interference with or denial of service, attacks on websites and other operational disruption, and unauthorized release of confidential customer information.  Such systems failures and cyberattacks affecting us, Sammons Financial Network, LLC, the underlying portfolios, intermediaries and other affiliated or third-party service providers may adversely affect us and your accumulation value.  For instance, cyberattacks may:  interfere with our processing of Contract transactions, including the processing internet transactions or with the underlying portfolios; impact our ability to calculate accumulation unit values; cause the release and possible destruction of confidential customer or business information; impede order processing; subject us and/or our service providers and intermediaries to regulatory fines and financial losses; and/or cause reputational damage.  Cybersecurity risks may also impact the issuers of securities in which the underlying portfolios invest, which may cause the funds underlying your Contract to lose value.

APPENDIX A – SEPARATE ACCOUNT INVESTMENT OPTIONS

 

The Separate Account has a number of investment options, each of which invests in the shares of a corresponding portfolio. More detailed information about the portfolios and their investment objectives, policies, risks, expenses and other aspects of their operations appear in the portfolio prospectuses.

 

Certain portfolios may invest substantially all of their assets in other mutual funds.  As a result, you will pay fees and expenses at both portfolio levels.  This will reduce your investment return.  These arrangements are referred to as "funds of funds" or "master-feeder funds."  Funds of funds or master-feeder structures may have higher expenses than portfolios that invest directly in debt or equity securities.

 

Certain portfolios invest in positions that emphasize alternative investment strategies and/or nontraditional asset classes. Alternative investment strategies may be riskier than traditional investment strategies and may involve leverage or use various complex hedging techniques, like options and derivatives. These alternative investments create a mix of strategies that offers potential diversification benefits beyond traditional investment strategies.

Certain portfolios may employ volatility management strategies to provide for downside protection during sharp downward movements in equity markets.  The cost of these hedging strategies could limit the upside participation of the portfolio in rising equity markets relative to other portfolios.  There is no guarantee that a portfolio using a volatility management strategy can achieve or maintain its optimal risk targets, and the portfolio may not perform as expected.

 

You should consult with your registered representative to determine which combination of investment choices is appropriate for you.

 

Investment Policies of the Portfolios

 

Each portfolio tries to achieve a specified investment objective by following certain investment policies.  No one can promise that any portfolio will meet its investment objective.  A portfolio’s objectives and policies affect its returns and risks.  Each investment option’s performance depends on the experience of the corresponding portfolio.  You bear the risk that the underlying portfolios you have allocated amounts to will not meet their investment objectives.  The objectives of the portfolios are as follows:

8Name change effective May 28, 2019.

9Name change effective June 1, 2019.

 

The portfolios may make a material change in their investment policies.  In that case, we will send you notice of the change.  Within 60 days after you receive the notice, or within 60 days after the effective date of the change, if later, you may transfer any amount that you have in that investment option to another investment option.  (See “Transfers of Accumulation Value” on page 20).

 

The portfolios sell their shares to Separate Accounts of various insurance companies to support both variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts, and to qualified retirement plans.  We currently do not foresee any disadvantages to our owners arising from this use of the portfolios for this type of mixed and shared funding.  The funds companies will monitor for possible conflicts arising out of this practice.  If any such conflict or disadvantage does arise, we and/or the applicable fund companies may take appropriate action to protect your interests.

 

The portfolios available under the Contracts are not available for purchase directly by the general public, and are not the same as the mutual funds with very similar or nearly identical names that are sold directly to the public. However, the investment objectives and policies of the portfolios are very similar to the investment objectives and policies of other (publicly available) mutual funds that have very similar or nearly identical names and that are or may be managed by the same investment adviser or manager.  Nevertheless, the investment performance and results of any of the portfolios that are available under the Contracts may be lower, or higher, than the investment results of such other (publicly available) mutual funds.  There can be no assurance, and no representation is made, that the investment results of any of the available portfolios will be comparable to the investment results of any other portfolio or mutual fund, even if the other portfolio or mutual fund has the same investment adviser or manager and the same investment objectives and policies and a very similar or nearly identical name.

 

The portfolios offered through the Contract are selected by Midland National based on several criteria, including asset class coverage, the alignment of investment objectives of a portfolio with our hedging strategy, the strength of the manager’s reputation and tenure, brand recognition, performance, and the capability and qualification of each sponsoring investment firm. Of course, we also consider whether the portfolio’s adviser is an affiliate of ours. We also consider whether the portfolio, its adviser, sub-adviser, or distributor (or an affiliate) can provide marketing and distribution support for the sale of the policies. Another factor that we consider during the selection process is whether the portfolio or one of its service providers (e.g., the investment adviser or sub-advisers) will make payments to us or our affiliates in connection with certain administrative, marketing and support services, and the amount of any such payments, or whether affiliates of the funds can provide marketing and distribution support for sales of the Contracts. 

 

You are responsible for choosing the investment options, and the amounts allocated to each, that are appropriate for your own individual circumstances and by your investment goals, financial situation, and risk tolerance. Since investment risk is borne by you decisions regarding investment allocations should be carefully considered and periodically re-evaluated.

 

Other portfolios (or available classes) may have lower fees and better overall investment performance.

 

In making your investment selections, we encourage you to thoroughly investigate all of the information regarding the portfolios that are available to you, including each portfolio’s prospectus, statement of additional information and annual and semi-annual reports. Other sources such as the fund company’s website or newspapers and financial and other magazines provide more current information, including information about any regulatory actions or investigations relating to a portfolio. You should monitor and periodically re-evaluate your allocations to determine if they are still appropriate.

 

You bear the entire risk for the allocation of your premiums and accumulation value among the investment options whether or not you use the service of an adviser.  We are not responsible for any investment or other advice or services that you may receive.


 

 

You bear the risk of any decline in the accumulation value of your Contract resulting from the performance of the investment options you have chosen.

 

We do not recommend or endorse any particular portfolio or portfolios and we do not provide investment advice.

 

Availability of the Portfolios

We cannot guarantee that each portfolio will always be available for investment through the Contracts.

 

We reserve the right, subject to applicable law, to make additions to, deletions from, or substitutions for the shares of a portfolio that are held in the Separate Account. New or substitute portfolios may have different fees and expenses and their availability may be limited to certain classes of purchasers. If the shares of a portfolio are no longer available for investment or if, in our judgment, further investment in any portfolio should become inappropriate, we may redeem the shares of that portfolio and substitute shares of another portfolio. We will not substitute any shares without notice and prior approval of the SEC and state insurance authorities, to the extent required by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or other applicable law.

 

 

 

 


 

APPENDIX BENHANCED DEATH BENEFIT EXAMPLES

 

Enhanced Death Benefit Value Examples

Enhanced death benefit value refers to the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsements death benefit value. The enhanced death benefit value is only available as a death benefit and is not available as a surrender value.

 

The initial enhanced death benefit value on the Contract issue date is equal to the initial premium of the Contract that the endorsement is attached.

 

Example 1:

During the enhanced death benefit step-up period, on the contract anniversary, the accumulation value is $100,000, the base Contracts death benefit is $80,000, and the enhanced death benefit current value (prior to the step-up) is $85,000.

 

The enhanced death benefit after the step-up on the contract anniversary would be $100,000 the accumulation value, which is the greater of:

1)      $100,000 accumulation value

2)      $80,000 base Contract death benefit

3)      $85,000 enhanced death benefit immediately prior to contract anniversary

 

Example 2:

During the enhanced death benefit step-up, on the contract anniversary, the accumulation value is $85,000, the base Contract death benefit is $85,000, and the enhanced death benefit value (prior to the step-up) is $95,000.

 

The enhanced death benefit value after the step-up on the contract anniversary would stay $95,000, as the current enhanced death benefit is the greater of:

1)      $85,000 accumulation value

2)      $85,000 base Contract death benefit

3)      $95,000 enhanced death benefit immediately prior to contract anniversary

 

Example 3:

After the enhanced death benefit step-up period has ended, on the contract anniversary, the accumulation value is $185,000, the base Contract death benefit is $110,000, and the enhanced death benefit value (prior to the step-up) is $115,000.

 

The enhanced death benefit value would not change and stay at $115,000. In this case, the step-up in the enhanced death benefit is no longer available, since the enhanced death benefit step-up period has ended. 

 

Effects of a Partial Withdrawal on the Enhanced Death Benefit Value Examples

Any gross partial surrender amount(s), including required minimum distributions, will reduce the enhanced death benefit value by the same proportion as the reduction to the accumulation value.

 

Example 1:

A contract owner takes a partial withdrawal in the amount of $10,000. At the time of the partial withdrawal, prior to the partial withdrawal, the accumulation value is $100,000 and the enhanced death benefit value is $85,000.

 

After the partial withdrawal, the enhanced death benefit value is $76,500, which equals;

the enhanced death benefit prior to the withdrawal times one minus the withdrawal amount divided by the accumulation value prior to the withdrawal which equals $85,000 [enhanced death benefit prior to the withdrawal] times (1 – ($10,000 [withdrawal amount] divided by $100,000 [accumulation value prior to withdrawal[)) = $76,500. The accumulation value, after the partial withdrawal, is $90,000 = $100,000 - $10,000.

 

Example 2:

A contract owner takes a partial withdrawal in the amount of $10,000. At the time of the Partial Withdrawal, prior to the Partial Withdrawal, the accumulation value is $100,000 and the enhanced death benefit value is $200,000.

After the partial withdrawal, the enhanced death benefit value is $180,000, which equals;

the enhanced death benefit prior to the withdrawal times one minus the withdrawal amount divided by the accumulation value prior to the withdrawal which equals  $200,000 [enhanced death benefit prior to the withdrawal] times (1 – ($10,000 [withdrawal amount] divided by $100,000 [accumulation value prior to withdrawal])). The accumulation value, after the partial withdrawal, is $90,000 = $100,000 - $10,000.


 

 

Example 3:

A contract owner takes a partial withdrawal in the amount of $10,000. At the time of the partial withdrawal, prior to the partial withdrawal, the accumulation value is $100,000 and the enhanced death benefit value is $100,000. After the partial withdrawal, the enhanced death benefit value is $90,000, which equals; the enhanced death benefit prior to the withdrawal times one minus the withdrawal amount divided by the accumulation value prior to the withdrawal which equals $100,000 [enhanced death benefit prior to the withdrawal] times (1 – ($10,000 [withdrawal amount] divided by $100,000 [accumulation value prior to withdrawal])). The accumulation value, after the partial withdrawal, is $90,000 = $100,000 - $10,000.

 

Effects of Additional Premium on the Enhanced Death Benefit Value Examples

Each time any additional premium is received, the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement value will increase by the amount of the additional premium on dollar for dollar basis. This is true even after the annual step-up period has expired.

 

Example 1:

During the enhanced death benefit value step-up period, a contract owner makes an additional premium payment of $10,000. At the time of the premium payment, the enhanced death benefit value is $100,000. After the additional premium payment, the enhanced death benefit value is $110,000 = $100,000 + $10,000.

 

Example 2:

After the enhanced death benefit value step-up period has ended, a contract owner makes an additional premium payment of $10,000. At the time of the premium payment, the enhanced death benefit value is $100,000. After the additional premium payment, the enhanced death benefit value is $110,000 = $100,000 + $10,000.

 

 


 

APPENDIX C – STATE VARIATIONS

 

Certain contract features described in this Prospectus may vary or may not be available in your state. The state in which your Contract is issued governs whether or not certain features, riders, charges or fees are available or will vary under your Contract. These variations are reflected in your Contract and in riders or endorsements to your Contract.

 

This Appendix C contains an overview of state specific variations.

 

For Contracts issued in the state of Arizona, the following variations apply:

 

On written request we are required to provide within reasonable time, reasonable factual information regarding the benefits and provisions of your annuity.

 

If for any reason you are not satisfied with the annuity, you may return the annuity within 10 days or within 30 days if you are 65 years of age or older on the date of the application and receive a refund of the full Accumulation Value plus any fees or charges deducted from the Contract as of the date the returned Contract is received by the insurer or its insurance producer, or if greater and required by state law, premiums paid as of the date the returned Contract is received by the insured or insurance producer.

 

For Contracts issued in the state of California, the following variations apply:

 

For Owners in the state of California 60 years or older – the Free Look period is a 30-day period beginning on the day you receive your Contact. Your money will be placed in a fixed account or money market fund, unless you direct that premium to be invested in an underlying stock or bond fund portfolio during that 30-day period. If you do not direct that premium be invested in a stock or bond portfolio and you return the Contract within the 30-day period, you will be entitled to a refund of the premium and Contract fees. If you do direct that the premium be invested in a stock or bond portfolio during the 30-day period and you return the Contract during that period, you will be entitled to a refund of the Contract’s account value on the day the Contract is received by the insurance company or agent who sold you this Contract which could be less that the premium you paid for the Contract, plus any Contract fee paid. A return of the Contract after 30 days may result in a substantial penalty, known as a surrender charge, if you elect the Optional Value Endorsement.

 

For Contracts issued in the state of Connecticut, the following variations apply:

 

During the right to examine period if cancellation is made prior to delivery of the Contract we will refund all premiums paid. 

 

Also, we currently define excessive/frequent trading as:  (a) two or more “round trips” involving the same investment option within a 60-calendar day period; or (b) six or more “round trips” involving the same investment option within a twelve month period.  “Round trip” means more than one purchase and sale of the same investment option within a 60-calendar day period. We reserve the right to revise our market timing procedures as we deem necessary or appropriate to more effectively detect and prevent market timing. Any exercise of our right to delay, restrict or reject trading activity will be applied equally and in a non-discriminatory manner to all owners.

 

For Contracts issued in the state of Florida, the following variations apply:

 

The cover page of the Contract contains a clear statement that death benefit and accumulation values will reflect the investment experience of our separate account, which may cause them to increase or decrease and are not guaranteed as to the fixed dollar amount.  To obtain additional Contract information and/or to receive assistance in resolving complaints, our 800 number is listed in a bold face type. We have omitted the right to limit investment options in which premiums are invested.

 


 

 

For Contracts issued in the state of Illinois, the following variations apply:

 

The cover page of the Contract includes contact information to contact us or the Illinois Department of Insurance should you have any complaints arise regarding your annuity.

Public Service Section

If payment is made after the first 30 days, we agree to pay interest on the death proceeds from the 30th day until the date of payment. The interest will be at an annual interest rate determined by us not to be less than the rate required by the state of Montana.

 

Gender will not play a role in determining payout rates; any reference to gender has been removed.

APPENDIX D – CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The following tables of condensed financial information show accumulation unit values for each investment option for the period since the investment option started operation.  An accumulation unit value is the unit we use to calculate the value of your interest in a subaccount.  The tables below show two sets of accumulation unit values that reflect the current level of Separate Account annual expenses available under the Contract. One set of tables reflects the lowest Annual Asset Charge of 1.15% (for the 7-Year Optional Value Endorsement) and the other set reflects the Asset Charge of 1.35% (for the base contract with no endorsement). No condensed financial information is shown for contracts with the Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement because the endorsement was not offered prior to the date of this Prospectus. Tables reflecting the other Annual Asset Charges are included in the SAI.

THE CONTRACT

 

Entire Contract

 

The entire contract between you and us consists of the contract, the attached written application and any attached endorsements, riders, and amendments.

 

Changes to the Contract

 

No one has the right to change any part of the contract or to waive any of its provisions unless the change is approved in writing by one of our officers. Only our President or Secretary may modify the contract.

 

We may change the contract without Your consent to conform to state or federal laws or regulations.  A change will be made by attaching an endorsement to the contract.

 

Incontestability

 

We will not contest the contract.

 

Misstatement of Age or Sex

 

If the age or sex of the annuitant has been misstated, we will adjust the amount of each annuity payment to whatever the applied value would have purchased at the correct age and sex.

 

Any underpayments made by us will be paid to the payee.  Any overpayments made by us will be charged against benefits falling due after adjustment.  All underpayments and overpayments will include interest at the rate required by the jurisdiction in which the contract is delivered.

 

Non-participating

 

The contract does not participate in the surplus or profits of the Company and the Company does not pay any dividends on it.

 

Claims of Creditors

 

To the extent permitted by law, no benefits payable under the contract to a beneficiary or payee are subject to the claims of creditors.

 

Minimum Benefits

 

The annuity payments, surrender values and death benefit under the contract are not less than the minimum required by the laws of the state in which the contract is delivered.

 


 

Ownership

 

The contract belongs to you.  You have all rights granted by the contract, including the right to change owners and beneficiaries, subject to the rights of:

1)      Any assignee of record with us;

2)      Any irrevocable beneficiary; and

3)      Any restricted ownership.

 

We must receive written notice informing us of any change, designation or revocation.  Once recorded, a change, designation or revocation takes effect as of the date the written notice was signed.  However, we are not liable for payments made by us before we record the written notice.    A change of owner may have adverse tax consequences.

 

Assignment

 

An assignment may have adverse tax consequences.

 

You may assign the contract by giving us written notice.  The assignment does not take effect until we accept and approve it.  We reserve the right, except to the extent prohibited by applicable laws, regulations, or actions of the State insurance commissioner, to refuse assignments or transfers at any time on a non-discriminatory basis. We will not be responsible for the validity of any assignment. We will not be liable for any payments We make prior to recording the written notice of assignment.

 

This contract, or any of its riders, is not designed for resale, speculation, arbitrage, viatical settlements or any other type of collective investment scheme.  This contract may not be traded on any stock exchange or secondary market.

 

Accumulation Unit Value

 

We determine accumulation unit values for each investment option of our Separate Account at the end of each valuation period. The accumulation unit value for each investment division was initially set at $10.00.  The accumulation unit value for any business day is equal to the accumulation unit value for the preceding business day multiplied by the net investment factor for that division on that business day.

 

We determine the net investment factor for each investment option every valuation period by taking a) divided by b) minus c) where:

a)      Is the total of:

1)        The net asset value per share at the end of the current Valuation Period; plus

2)        Any dividend or capital gains per share reinvested during the current Valuation Period; plus

3)        Total accrued, but not yet reinvested, capital gains per share as of the current Valuation Period.

b)     Is the net asset value plus the total accrued but not yet reinvested capital gains per share as of the preceding Valuation Period.

c)     Is the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge plus the Asset Based Administration Charge for each day in the current Valuation Period.

 


 

We reserve the right to subtract any other daily charge for taxes or amounts set aside as a reserve for taxes. Generally, this means that we would adjust unit values to reflect what happens to the portfolios, and also for any charges.

 

Annuity Payments

 

The amount of each fixed annuity payment will be set on the Maturity Date and will not subsequently be affected by the investment performance of the investment options.

 

 

CALCULATION OF YIELDS AND TOTAL RETURNS

 

Money Market Investment Option Yield Calculation

 

In accordance with regulations adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, Midland National is required to compute the Fidelity VIP Government Money Market Fund  investment option (called “the money market investment option” for the purpose of this section) current annualized yield for a seven-day period in a manner which does not take into consideration any realized or unrealized gains or losses on shares of the money market investment option or on their respective portfolio securities. This current annualized yield is computed for each money market investment option by determining the net change (exclusive of realized gains and losses on the sale of securities and unrealized appreciation and depreciation and income other than investment income) in the value of a hypothetical account having a balance of one unit of the money market investment option at the beginning of such seven-day period, dividing such net change in account value by the value of the account at the beginning of the period to determine the base period return and annualizing this quotient on a 365-day basis. The net change in account value reflects the deductions for the annual maintenance fee, the mortality and expense risk charge, administration charge, and income and expenses accrued during the period. Because of these deductions, the yield for the money market investment option of the Separate Account will be lower than the yield for the respective money market investment option or any comparable substitute funding vehicle.

 

The Securities and Exchange Commission also permits Midland National to disclose the effective yield of the money market investment option for the same seven-day period, determined on a compounded basis. The effective yield is calculated by compounding the unannualized base period return by adding one to the base period return, raising the sum to a power equal to 365 divided by 7, and subtracting one from the result.

 

The yield on amounts held in the money market investment option normally will fluctuate on a daily basis. Therefore, the disclosed yield for any given past period is not an indication or representation of future yields or rates of return. The money market investment option’s actual yield is affected by changes in interest rates on money market securities, average portfolio maturity of the money market investment option or substitute funding vehicle, the types and quality of portfolio securities held by the money market investment option or substitute funding vehicle, and operating expenses. In addition, the yield figures are for the base contract only with no rider charges and do not reflect the effect of any surrender charge that may be applicable to a particular contract.


 

 

Other Investment Option Yield Calculations

 

Midland National may from time to time disclose the current annualized yield of one or more of the investment options (except the money market investment option) for 30-day periods. The annualized yield of an investment option refers to income generated by the investment option over a specified 30-day period. Because the yield is annualized, the yield generated by an investment option during the 30-day period is assumed to be generated each 30-day period. This yield is computed by dividing the net investment income per accumulation unit earned during the period by the price per unit on the last day of the period, according to the following formula:

 

YIELD = 2 [ (a – b + 1)6 – 1 ]

     cd

Where:  a =   net investment income earned during the period by the portfolio (or substitute funding vehicle) attributable to shares owned by the investment option.

              b =  expenses accrued for the period (net of reimbursements).

              c =   the average daily number of units outstanding during the period.

              d =  the maximum offering price per unit on the last day of the period.

 

Net investment income will be determined in accordance with rules established by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accrued expenses will include all recurring fees that are charged to all owner accounts.

 

Because of the charges and deductions imposed by the Separate Account the yield of the investment option will be lower than the yield for the corresponding portfolio. The yield on amounts held in the investment options normally will fluctuate over time. Therefore, the disclosed yield for any given past period is not an indication or representation of future yields or rates of return. The investment option’s actual yield will be affected by the types and quality of portfolio securities held by the portfolio, and its operating expenses.

 

Standard Total Return Calculations

 

Midland National may from time to time also disclose average annual total returns for one or more of the investment options for various periods of time. Average annual total return quotations are computed by finding the average annual compounded rates of return over one, five and ten year periods that would equate the initial amount invested to the ending redeemable value, according to the following formula:

 

P (1 + T)n = ERV

Where:       P =        a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000

                   T =        average annual total return

                   n =        number of years

      ERV =  ending redeemable value of a hypothetical $1,000 payment made at the beginning of the one, five, or ten-year period, at the end of the one, five, or ten-year period (or fractional portion thereof).

 


 

All recurring fees that are charged to all owner accounts are recognized in the ending redeemable value. This includes a contract charges factor that is calculated by taking the daily Separate Account asset charge and adding an additional amount that adjusts for the current $40  maintenance fee. This additional amount is based on an “average” Contract with an initial premium of $100,000 so it is calculated as $40, or 0.04%, annually. The standard average annual total return calculations assume the contract is surrendered.

 

Midland National may disclose average annual total returns in various ways, depicting whether the contract is surrendered or maintained in force.  Accordingly, Midland National may disclose the following types of average annual total return:

1.      The contract is surrendered and

2.      The contract is not surrendered.

 

Cumulative Total Returns

 

Midland National may from time to time also disclose cumulative total returns in conjunction with the annual returns described above. The cumulative returns will be calculated using the following formula.

 

CTR = [ERV/P] – 1

Where:     CTR = the cumulative total return net of investment option recurring charges for the period.

ERV = ending redeemable value of an assumed $1,000 payment at the beginning of the one, five, or ten-year period at the end of the one, five, or ten-year period (or fractional portion thereof).

                 P      =  an assumed initial payment of $1,000.

 

Midland National may also disclose the value of an assumed payment of $10,000 (or other amounts) at the end of various periods of time.

 

Adjusted Historical Performance Data

 

Midland National may also disclose adjusted historical performance data for an investment option for periods before the investment option commenced operations, based on the assumption that the investment option was in existence before it actually was, and that the investment option had been invested in a particular portfolio that was in existence prior to the investment option’s commencement of operations. The portfolio used for these calculations will be the actual portfolio that the investment option will invest in.

 

Adjusted historical performance data of this type will be calculated as follows. First, the value of an assumed $1,000 investment in the applicable portfolio is calculated on a monthly basis by comparing the net asset value per share at the beginning of the month with the net asset value per share at the end of the month (adjusted for any dividend distributions during the month), and the resulting ratio is applied to the value of the investment at the beginning of the month to get the gross value of the investment at the end of the month. Second, that gross value is then reduced by a “contract charges” factor to reflect the charges imposed under the contract. The contract charges factor is calculated by taking the daily Separate Account asset charge and adding an additional amount that adjusts for the current $40 maintenance fee. This additional amount is based on an  average accumulation value of $20,000 so it is calculated as $40, or 0.20% annually. The total is then divided by 12 to get the monthly contract charges factor, which is then applied to the value of the hypothetical initial payment in the applicable portfolio to get the value in the investment option. The contract charges factor is assumed to be deducted at the beginning of each month. In this manner, the Ending Redeemable Value (“ERV”) of a hypothetical $1,000 initial payment in the investment option is calculated each month during the applicable period, to get the ERV at the end of the period. Third, that ERV is then utilized in the formulas above.


 

 

This type of performance data may be disclosed on both an average annual total return and a cumulative total return basis.  Moreover, it may be disclosed assuming that the contract is not surrendered (i.e., with no deduction for the contingent deferred sales charge) and assuming that the contract is surrendered at the end of the applicable period (i.e., reflecting a deduction for any applicable contingent deferred sales charge).

 

 

FEDERAL TAX MATTERS

 

Tax-Free Exchanges (Section 1035)

 

Midland National accepts premiums which are the proceeds of a contract in a transaction qualifying for a tax-free exchange under Section 1035 of the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”).

 

We also accept “rollovers” from contracts qualifying as individual retirement annuities or accounts (IRAs), or any other qualified contract which is eligible to “rollover” into an IRA. The Company differentiates between nonqualified contracts and IRAs to the extent necessary to comply with federal tax laws. In all events, a tax adviser should be consulted with and relied upon before you effect an exchange or a rollover.

 

Required Distributions

 

In order to be treated as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes, section 72(s) of the Code requires any nonqualified contract to provide that (a) if any owner dies on or after the annuity date but prior to the time the entire interest in the contract has been distributed, the remaining portion of such interest will be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution being used as of the date of that owner’s death; and (b) if any owner dies prior to the annuity starting date, the entire interest in the contract will be distributed (1) within five years after the date of that owner’s death, or (2) as Annuity payments which will begin within one year of that owner’s death and which will be made over the life of the owner’s “designated beneficiary” or over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of that beneficiary. The owner’s “designated beneficiary” is the person to whom ownership of the contract passes by reason of death and must be a natural person. However, if the owner’s designated beneficiary is the surviving spouse of the owner, the contract may be continued with the surviving spouse as the new owner.

 

The nonqualified contracts contain provisions which are intended to comply with the requirements of section 72(s) of the Code, although no regulations interpreting these requirements have yet been issued. We intend to review such provisions and modify them if necessary to assure that they comply with the requirements of Code section 72(s) when clarified by regulation or otherwise.


 

 

Other rules may apply to qualified contracts.

 

Non-Natural Person owners

 

If a non-natural person (e.g., a corporation or a trust) owns a nonqualified contract, the taxpayer generally must include in income any increase in the excess of the account value over the investment in the contract (generally, the premiums or other consideration paid for the contract) during the taxable year.

 

There are some exceptions to this rule and a prospective owner that is not a natural person should discuss these with a tax adviser. 

 

The tax discussion in the prospectus and herein generally applies to contracts owned by natural persons.

 

Diversification Requirements

 

The Code requires that the investments of each investment option of the Separate Account underlying the contracts be “adequately diversified” in order for the contracts to be treated as annuity contracts for Federal income tax purposes.  It is intended that each investment option, through the fund company in which it invests, will satisfy these diversification requirements. 

 

Owner Control

 

In some circumstances, owners of variable contracts who retain control over the investment of the underlying Separate Account assets may be treated as owners of those assets and may be subject to tax on income produced by those assets. Although published guidance in this area does not address certain aspects of the contracts, we believe that the owner of a contract should not be treated as the owner of the Separate Account assets. We reserve the right to modify the contracts to bring them into conformity with applicable standards should such modification be necessary to prevent owners of the contracts from being treated as the owners of the underlying Separate Account assets.

 

Taxation of Qualified Contracts

 

The tax rules applicable to qualified contracts vary according to the type of retirement plan and the terms and conditions of the plan. Your rights under a qualified contract may be subject to the terms of the retirement plan itself, regardless of the terms of the qualified contract.  Adverse tax consequences may result if you do not ensure that contributions, distributions and other transactions with respect to the contract comply with the law.

 

Individual Retirement Accounts and Annuities (IRAs), as defined in Section 408 of the Code, permit individuals to make annual contributions of up to the lesser of a specific dollar amount or the amount of compensation includible in the individual’s gross income for the year.  The contributions may be deductible in whole or in part, depending on the individual’s income and whether the individual is a participant in a qualified plan.  Distributions from certain retirement plans may be “rolled over” into an IRA on a tax-deferred basis without regard to these limits.  Amounts in the IRA (other than nondeductible contributions) are taxed when distributed from the IRA.  A 10% penalty tax generally applies to distributions made before age 59½, unless certain exceptions apply.


 

 

Roth IRAs, as described in Code section 408A, permit certain eligible individuals to make non-deductible contributions to a Roth IRA in cash or as a rollover or transfer from another Roth IRA or other IRA.  The owner may wish to consult a tax adviser before combining any converted amounts with any other Roth IRA contributions, including any other converted amounts from other tax years.  Distributions from a Roth IRA generally are not taxed, except that, once aggregate distributions exceed contributions to the Roth IRA, income tax and a 10% penalty tax may apply to distributions made (1) before age 59½ (subject to certain exceptions) or (2) during the five taxable years starting with the year in which the first contribution is made to any Roth IRA.  A 10% penalty tax may apply to amounts attributable to a conversion from an IRA if they are distributed during the five taxable years beginning with the year in which the conversion was made.

 

 

DISTRIBUTION OF THE CONTRACTS

 

The contracts are offered to the public on a continuous basis.  We anticipate continuing to offer the contracts, but reserve the right to discontinue the offering.

Item 28. Indemnification

 

Midland National Life Insurance Company indemnifies actions against all officers, directors, and employees to the full extent permitted by Iowa law.  This includes any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative.  Such indemnification includes expenses, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement of such actions, suits, or proceedings.

Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement

 ENHANCED DEATH BENEFIT ENDORSEMENT

 

This Enhanced Death Benefit Endorsement (this “Endorsement”) is made part of the Contract to which it is attached. If any provisions of this Endorsement are contrary or inconsistent with the Contract or any other endorsements or riders issued with the Contract, then this Endorsement shall control accordingly. Non-defined capitalized terms in this Endorsement shall have the meaning given to them in the Contract.  This Endorsement is effective as of the Contract Issue Date and remains in effect until one of the provisions under the Termination section in this Endorsement are met.

 

 

ENHANCED DEATH BENEIFIT

The purpose of the Annual Step-Up Value provided by this Endorsement is to provide additional guarantees that may increase the death benefit provided under the contract.

 

Election of this Endorsement modifies SECTION 8: DEATH BENEFIT provision of the Contract as described below.

 

The Death Benefit Calculation included in Section 8.1 of the Contract is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following.

 

Death Benefit Calculation: The death benefit will be calculated as of the Valuation Period that We receive a complete death benefit claim from the first beneficiary of record prior to the Transaction Closing Time.  The amount of the death benefit will be calculated based on the greater of the Accumulation Value of the Contract, Net Premium or the Annual Step-Up Value.

 

The death benefit amount will be increased by interest at the rate required by the jurisdiction in which this Contract is delivered from the date we receive all required documents until payment is made, less any applicable Premium Tax.

If the Owner dies before the entire interest in the Contract has been distributed, and the surviving spouse is not the sole Beneficiary, any remaining balance will:

 

1)         Be distributed to the appropriate Beneficiary within 5 years from the death of the Owner.

 

2)         Be distributed over the life of the Beneficiary or over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of such Beneficiary, and

 

3)         Such distributions must begin no later than one year after the date of death or a later date as prescribed by Internal Revenue Service regulations.

 

Each beneficiary may elect one of the following death benefit options:

 

1)         Paid in a single sum; or

 

2)         Elect a payment plan, as described in Section 9 of this contract.

 

After payment of all of the death benefit, the Contract is terminated.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

DEFINITIONS

The following definitions are applicable to this Endorsement.

 

Annual Charge:                                    Annual charge for expenses related to this Endorsement.

 

Attained Age:                                       Age as of Your last birthday. In the case of joint Owners, the Attained Age shall mean the age of the oldest joint Owner on his or her last birthday. If the Owner is a non-natural entity, then the Attained Age shall mean the age of the Annuitant’s last birthday.

 

Annual Step-Up Value:                        This Endorsements death benefit amount. This amount is not available for withdrawal as a lump sum.

 

The following provisions apply to this Endorsement and the benefits it provides.

 

ANNUAL Charge

The Annual Charge for this Endorsement is [0.30%], guaranteed for the life of the Contract and is a percentage of the Contract Accumulation Value prorated daily and charged against the Contracts Investment Options. If the Contract to which this Endorsement is attached is terminated, the daily charge will be deducted from the Contract’s Accumulation Value prior to the termination of the Contract.

 

ANNUAL STEP-UP

Each Contract Anniversary after the first Contract Year and prior to the earlier of death or Attained Age of [85], a new Annual Step-Up Value is calculated and becomes the new Annual Step-Up Value for that contract year. The Annual Step-Up Value steps up to the greater of; 1) The Accumulation Value or, 2) Net Premium; or 3) The Annual Step-Up Value from the most recent prior Contract Anniversary, adjusted for any additional premiums and partial withdrawals. The greater of (1), (2) or (3) becomes the new Annual Step-Up Value for that Contract Year. The stepped-up process stops at the earlier of the Attained Age of [85] or death of the Owner. If the Owner is a non-natural Owner then the step-up stops at death of Annuitant.

 

The amount of the Annual Step-Up is equal to:

a)    The Initial Premium payment as shown on the Specifications Page of the Contract;

b)    Increased dollar for dollar by any additional premium added after issue; and

c)     Adjusted on each Contract Anniversary that occurs prior to Your attained age of [85] to the greater of the Annual Step-Up Value from the prior Contract Anniversary (adjusted for any additional premium payments and partial withdrawals) and the current Accumulation Value. 

 

Any adjustments for partial withdrawal(s) will reduce the Annual Step-Up Value by the same proportion the Accumulation Value was reduced by the partial withdrawal(s).

 

TERMINATION

Once issued this Endorsement may not be terminated upon request; however, termination will occur upon any of the following:

 

1)    Death of the Owner. In the case of Joint Owners this Rider will terminate upon first death. In the case of non-natural Owner this Rider will terminate upon death of Annuitant; or

2)    Reduction of the Accumulation Value to zero; or 

3)    On the date annuity payments begin under the Contract; or

4)    Upon change in Ownership including Spousal Continuation; or

5)    On the date the Contract to which this Rider is attached terminates.
