Policies issued by American General Life Insurance Company ("AGL“) Actuarial Guideline 49 Guidelines for Illustrating Index Life Insurance Products Presented by… Trevor Keeble Director of Product Training A modification to Actuarial Guideline 49 (AG 49) has recently been adopted by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) that extends some of AG49’s requirements to all inforce IUL policies. This extension is designed to help create uniformity across all life insurance carriers illustrating IUL products and must be implemented by all companies no later than March 1, 2017. The previously introduced initial phases of AG 49 were effective September 1, 2015 and March 1, 2016. Note that while the prior phases focused on new sales of IUL policies only, this extension of AG 49 applies to inforce IUL policies – “AG 49 Inforce.” Policies issued by American General Life Insurance Company ("AGL“)

IUL In The News…. Over the last year you probably saw headlines in the news regarding IUL like some of the following. NAIC proposes rules to put restraints on IUL illustrations. A does of reality for a hot-selling insurance product. NAIC nears IUL illustration path. NAIC OKs new IUL illustration rule. Over the next few minutes we will briefly cover the current IUL marketplace, how an IUL operates and how this new Actuarial Guideline 49 will affect index life insurance illustrations going forward.

Value Proposition Market Upside Downside Protection Long-Term Yield Advantage Over Current Assumption UL Another way to think of an IUL policy as far as the design is diagramed in this slide. We already talked about the market upside and the downside protection. But what an IUL is really designed to do is potentially out perform traditional cash value life insurance. Downside Protection

Actuarial Guideline 49 NO CHANGE: American General Life’s products are not changing; this regulation will only impact how our Index Universal Life products are illustrated. NO CHANGE: Our competitive cap rates and participation rates are not affected by the requirements of AG 49. NO CHANGE: The potential amount of index interest that may be credited to a policyholder’s account is also not affected by AG 49. CHANGE: The way IUL products will be illustrated will be different. Note, these changes to IUL illustrations apply to the entire industry, not just to American General Life. The NAIC model regulation levels the playing field – that is, all life insurance sales illustrations will meet certain requirements and display information in a similar fashion. The advantage to consumers is that they will find it easier to make a fair comparison of policies. The advantage to you is that the regulation will prevent other producers from taking unfair advantage with the sales illustration tool.

IUL History Transamerica Occidental Life Insurance Company rolled-out the first-ever Index UL in January of 1997 – in response to rising market conditions and the growing popularity of the similarly-structured index annuity, introduced just two years prior.* Index Universal Life’s design was identical to that of traditional UL (which was developed in the 1970’s), but offered the purchaser the ability to earn limited interest based on the performance of a stock market index (without being subject to the losses of the stock market itself).* Now a little history on IULs.

Index UL Market Overview IUL Production Has Shown Growth In The Last Decade Third Quarter IUL sales were $452.9 million, compared with sales of $478.6 million for the third quarter of 2015. When evaluating third quarter IUL sales, results were up nearly 3.0% when compared with the previous quarter, and down over 5.0% when compared to the same period last year.

Interest Crediting Before we dive into the new guidelines let’s first talk about how interest credits are determined in an index universal life policy.

Index Strategies An index strategy uses a formula that calculates interest based in part on the movement of a stock/bond market index, such as the S&P 500 Index. Index UL has different index strategies where clients can direct their money in an effort to take advantage of positive movements in a stock market index. What is an index strategy?

Declared Interest Account Index Interest Account with Cap Rate Crediting Options Declared Interest Account Index Interest Account with Cap Rate Index Interest Account with Participation Rate Index Interest Account with Spread Typically, an IUL product utilizes only one pricing lever on each index crediting method offered. Meaning, that although the typical IUL product has three different index crediting method choices, in addition to a fixed crediting method option (which performs similarly to a traditional fixed UL), one method may use a participation rate as the “moving part”, another may use a cap rate. And finally an index strategy could use a spread.

Actuarial Guideline 49 Maximum Illustrated Rate

1. Rules for maximum illustrated rates – effective 9/1/2015 AG 49 limits the maximum illustrated rate a carrier may show in an index universal life insurance illustration. This max rate will now be calculated based on a specific lookback approach that all insurers must use. The approach takes all 25-year lookback periods over the last 66 years. The new max rate will vary depending on each product’s cap rate, participation rate, floor, and index account design. The first change that the guideline requires are new rules for maximum illustrated rates. Which is effective 9/1/1015.

Actuarial Guideline 49 Policy Loans

How It Works Participating Loan $200,000 Current Index or Fixed Account Interest Loan amount still in account - full cash value remains $20,000 Loan $200,000 Here we are starting with same index life insurance policy as in the previous example with a current cash value of $200,000. Once again this policyholder decides to take out a $20,000 loan. But this time they are taking a Participating loan. The major difference is that the $20,000 Participating loan is not removed from the cash value and is still earning index interest. The rate than that is charged is a fixed rate of 5%. Which can result is positive or negative net cost. Index Interest Credited Current Charge 5.00% Cash Value Positive or Negative Net Cost

2. Policy Loans – effective 3-1-2016 AG 49 will limit the interest rate differential that can be illustrated between the interest rate credited to loaned amounts and the corresponding loan rate that is charged to that balance (sometimes referred to as “loan leverage” or “loan arbitrage”). If the illustration includes a policy loan, the illustrated rate credited to the loan balance cannot exceed the illustrated loan charge by more than 1%. The next change is in regards to policy loans. This change does not go into effect until 3/1/2015. AG 49 will limit the interest rate differential that can be illustrated between the interest rate credited to loaned amounts and the corresponding loan rate that is charged to that balance (sometimes referred to as “loan leverage” or “loan arbitrage”). If the illustration includes a policy loan, the illustrated rate credited to the loan balance cannot exceed the illustrated loan charge by more than 1%.

How will this change affect American General Life’s IUL products? American General Life’s IUL products offer a participating loan which currently charges a 5% loan rate. AG 49 will now limit the max illustrated rate that could possibly be credited to the loaned balance to 1% more than the 5%, which results in 6% in this example, or the stated policy maximum illustrated rate if it is lower. Illustrations also include a mandatory ledger at an alternate 5% illustrated rate. American General Life’s IUL products offer a participating loan called which currently charges a 5% loan rate.

Actuarial Guideline 49 Illustration Disclosures

3.) New illustration disclosures – effective 3-1-2016 A ledger illustrated at the fixed account interest rate. If the illustration includes a loan, the illustrated rate credited to the loan balance cannot exceed the illustrated loan charge. In other words, no loan arbitrage can be shown. 3.) Effective 3-1-2016, AG 49 will require three new illustration disclosures with the goal of helping the client better understand how IUL works and how product performance may vary over time. A ledger illustrated at the fixed account interest rate. If the illustration includes a loan, the illustrated rate credited to the loan balance cannot exceed the illustrated loan charge. In other words, no loan arbitrage can be shown. A table showing the minimum and maximum of all the 25-year lookback rates that were derived under the new maximum illustrated rate calculation as described in #1 above. A table showing actual historical performance over the most recent 20-year period for each index account illustrated along with the hypothetical interest rates that would have resulted based on the product’s cap, participation and floor rates. How will all of these changes affect American General Life’s IUL products? Our goal at American General Life is to provide IUL products and illustrations that focus on our customers’ needs while fully complying with all applicable rules.

Actuarial Guideline 49 New Inforce Guidelines

New rules for illustrating inforce IUL policies under AG 49 Inforce: Rules for maximum illustrated rates – effective 3/1/2017 AG 49 Inforce limits the maximum hypothetical interest rate a carrier may show in an Index Universal Life insurance illustration. This max rate will now be calculated based on a specific look back approach that all insurers must use. The approach takes all 25-year look back periods over the last 66 years and will vary depending on each product’s cap rate, participation rate, floor, and index account design.

New rules for illustrating inforce IUL policies under AG 49 Inforce: The purpose of this change is to place more consistent limits around how insurers illustrate interest credited on IULs with the goal of more fairly depicting how these products may perform for the end consumer. This approach to determining the maximum hypothetical illustrated interest rate is the same approach that was implemented on new sales in phase 1 of AG49 in September of 2015.

New rules for illustrating inforce IUL policies under AG 49 Inforce: American General Life intends to launch AG 49 Inforce changes on February 24, 2017. Any inforce illustrations run after that date must comply with the new AG 49 limits on the maximum hypothetical illustrated interest rate. Our goal at American General Life is to provide IUL products and illustrations that focus on your customer’s needs while fully complying with all applicable regulations. Because of this change to the historical calculation, you will likely see a reduction in the maximum illustrated interest rate allowed for illustrating an inforce IUL ledger. Re-projections of policies sold prior to the introduction of AG 49 limits on the maximum illustrated interest rate may not be as favorable as originally illustrated.
