1 The competitor Lincoln MoneyGuard II illustration was run on a 50-year-old male, couples discount. The values represented here are for a $195,040 of initial face amount. The values
reflect the cost of 1 year of premiums. Assumes a 3% inflation rider on Long-Term Care benefit. All values and benefits shown are guaranteed. This chart compares the BrightLife Grow and
BrightLife Protect Indexed Universal Life contracts against the Lincoln MoneyGuard II contract. Please note the Lincoln contract will guarantee the coverage until age 119 provided by the
initial premium in this example. The premiums used in BrightLife Grow and BrightLife Protect examples will not guarantee coverage for the life of the policy. At guaranteed rates, the BrightLife
Grow policy will fail in year 11, and the BrightLife Protect in year 15. This should be considered when a client compares the different products.
2 This is a supplemental illustration and must be read in conjunction with the basic illustration. The basic illustration contains values using the same underwriting assumptions as this
supplemental at both guaranteed charges and guaranteed interest rates and contains other important information. The values represented here are for a $375,000 BrightLife Protect and
BrightLife Grow policy on a 50-year-old male standard non-smoker. Includes 2% Long-Term Care Services Rider. The values reflect the cost of 1 year of premiums. The values represented here
are non-guaranteed and assume current charges and a current interest rate of 6.91% for BL Grow and 5.75% for BL Protect. If 0% guaranteed rate and charges are used, BrightLife Grow
would fail in year 11 and BrightLife Protect would fail in year 15. The face amounts are the minimum amounts allowed within corridor limits.
