11.  72-year-old male, $1.8 million dollar universal policy  81-year-old female, $1.5 million dollar universal policy  73-year-old male, $3 million dollar universal policy 11 Examples of Paid Up Benefit Transactions

12.  A 72-year-old male held a $1.8 million dollar universal policy in trust. The policy had been taken out in 1992 by the family for estate planning purposes. To benefit his children. Due to the low interest rate environment over the last several years, the $13,600 annual premium was no longer keeping the policy in good standing and the cash value was eroding quickly. Over the years they have contributed a total of $245,000 in annual premiums, so the family was shocked to see the last annual statement reflects a cash value of only $23,600. Realizing they would need to substantially increase annual contributions they needed a solution. The family wanted to retain some coverage but was not financially able to gift additional money to the trust. They were very pleased that a paid up benefit transaction enabled them to retain $300,000 of coverage with no future premium payments. 12 Examples of Paid Up Benefit Transactions

13.  An insured female age 81 had a universal life policy with a face amount of $1.5 million and a cash value of $116,400. A paid up benefit transaction made it possible for the policy owner to retain $500,000 in death benefits with no future premium obligation. In 2008 the insured’s daughter purchased 2 identical $1.5 million dollar policies in preparation for her mother’s estate tax liability. After several years the mothers projected tax liability changed. The family had a concern over the premium payment and a need for a reduced amount of insurance coverage. A cash offer was received of $250,000 but the family declined the offer and kept both policies. One of our funding sources suggested a paid up benefit transaction. This allowed the family to retain $500,000 in death benefits without future premium obligation. Combined with the other policy this gave her a total of $2 million in coverage while reducing the overall premium outlay. 13 Examples of Paid Up Benefit Transactions

14.  A 73 year old male with a $3 million universal policy with $0 cash value. The policy owner retained a decreasing death benefit beginning at $2.1 million with no future premium obligation by receiving a paid up benefit transaction. In 1997 the insured purchased 3 $1 million dollar term policies through a trust to help transfer ownership of the family business to his children. After several years he asked his advisor to explore the life settlement option but decided to continue funding the policies as he had experienced a change in health. As the conversion deadline for the policies approached, he contacted his advisor again. His advisor understood the policy owner’s discomfort with the increasing premiums but wanted them to maintain some coverage. A policy valuation yielded a cash offer of $200,000 per policy. They considered selling 1 or 2 to help fund and remaining premiums. Then they considered a paid up benefit transactions allowing them to maximize the death benefit without premium obligations. Based on the insured’s health and need for insurance a decreasing benefit option was a good fit. The policy owner retained coverage with no future premium obligation beginning at $2.1 million for the first 5 years, $1.3 million for the following 5 years and continuing at $1 million thereafter. 14 Examples of Paid Up Benefit Transactions
