REASSURE AMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, MACCABEES LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, Defendants. CASE NO. 10-304-CIVIL CIVIL ACTION -LAW JURY TRIAL DEMANDED COMPLAINT Plaintiffs Janice Townsend Bariski and the Estate of James Lee Bariski, by and through their attorneys McNEES WALL-ACE & NURICK LLC, hereby file this Complaint against Defendants. In support thereof, Plaintiffs state the following: PARTIES 1. Plaintiff Janice Townsend Bariski is an adult individual residing in Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. Ms. Bariski was the wife of the late James Lee Bariski (the "Plaintiffs' Decedent,") and she is presently serving as the Executrix of the Estate of James Lee Bariski. 2. Defendants are or were insurance companies. Upon information and belief, Maccabees Life Insurance Company became Royal Maccabees Life Insurance Company, and still later Reassure America Life Insurance Company. 3 THE FACTS 3. On or about June 8, 1990, James Lee Bariski purchased a life insurance policy from Maccabees Life Insurance Company, being Policy No. 3166593 in the face amount of $250,000 (the "Policy"), and named as primary beneficiary of the death benefit, Janice Bariski. (Exhibit "A.'? 4. James Bariski paid the premiums on the Policy for many years. 5. James Bariski changed the beneficiary on the Policy to provide a creditor with security for the payment of a debt. However, the debt was later paid, and any right or title under the Policy was subsequently assigned to Janice Bariski. (Exhibit "B.'? 6. In 2002, James Bariski was diagnosed with cancer and ultimately, passed away on or about December 20, 2007. 7. After James Bariski became ill and prior to his death, Defendants informed Mr. Bariski that they had not received the premium due in November 2005, and he had a grace period in which to make the premium payment. 8. James Bariski mailed the premium payment prior to the expiration of the grace period. 9. Defendants wrongly informed James Bariski that the Policy had lapsed because they had not received the premium payment prior to the expiration of the grace period. 10. Defendants informed James Bariski that they would reinstate the Policy without evidence of insurability if all past due premium payments were received in their office no later than January 8, 2006. 4 11. Upon information and belief, Defendants received the payment from James Bariski prior to January 8, 2006. 12. On or about January 9, 2006, Defendants wrongly informed James Bariski that the Policy had terminated due to non-payment of premiums and reinstatement of terminated coverage would require evidence of insurability. 13. On or about January 16, 2006, Defendants purported to have received payment from James Bariski on January 10, 2006, insisted that the Policy had lapsed, and forwarded a reinstatement application and authorization form. 14. James Bariski informed Defendants of his payment of the premium and requested the reinstatement of the Policy. 15. Defendants wrongfully refused to recognize the continued existence of coverage under the Policy. 16. Upon the death of Mr. Bariski, Defendants did not make payment of the Policy proceeds. 17. James Bariski handled his own financial and insurance matters, and for the most part, did not discuss these issues with others. Plaintiffs only discovered the purported lapsing of the Policy upon review of Mr. Bariski's records several months after his death. 18. Upon discovery of the purported lapsing of the Policy, Plaintiffs enlisted the assistance of others in communicating with Defendants. During the course of these communications, Defendants continued to defend their improper conduct. COUNT I BREACH OF CONTRACT 19. Paragraphs 1 to 18 above are incorporated herein as if set forth in full below. 5 20, Plaintiffs' Decedent paid the premiums due under the Policy in a timely manner and otherwise honored all of his contractual obligations. 21.

Defendants misrepresented the requirements of Pennsylvania law and the Policy regarding the payment of premiums. b. Defendants wrongly informed Plaintiffs' Decedent that the Policy had lapsed because Defendants had not received premium payments. c. Defendants wrongly informed Plaintiffs' Decedent that the Policy had terminated due to non-payment of premiums and reinstatement of terminated coverage would require evidence of insurability. d.

MM-DEF (FPAL-5) R1 INSURANCE PROCEEDS PROCEEDS PAYABLE This Policy shall terminate upon the death of the Insured. The Company will pay the Insurance Proceeds subject to the provisions of this Policy to the Beneficiary upon receipt of due proof of the Insured's death. The Company will require surrender of this Policy as a condition of payment. The Insurance Proceeds payable depend on the Specified Benefit Amount Option in effect at the date of death. Two Specified Benefit Amount Options are available under this Policy: LEVEL OPTION-The Specified Benefit Amount as shown on the Schedule Page includes the Accumulation Value. Under this option, the Insurance Proceeds at the Insured's date of death shall equal the greater of: 1) the Specified Benefit Amount on the date of death; or 2) the Accumulation Value on the date of death multiplied by the percentage shown in the Table of Minimum Death Benefit Percentages for the Insured's attained age. INCREASING OPTION-The Specified Benefit Amount as shown on the Schedule Page is in addition to the Accumulation Value. Under this option, the Insurance Proceeds at the Insured's date of death shall equal the greater of: 1) The Specified Benefit Amount on the date of death, plus the Accumulation Value on the date of death; or 2) the Accumulation Value on the date of death multiplied by the percentage shown in the Table of Minimum Death Benefit Percentages for the Insured's attained age. Any increases or decreases made to the Specified Benefit Amount may change the Insurance Proceeds payable. Any loan, Withdrawal, or Partial Surrender of this Policy will be subtracted from the Insurance Proceeds. If the Insured is living on the Maturity Date and this Policy is in force, this Policy shall terminate and the Company shall pay the Surrender Value to the Owner. The Maturity Date is shown on the Schedule Page. It is possible that coverage will terminate prior to the Maturity Date if premiums paid following payment of the Initial Premium are insufficient to continue coverage to such date. It is also possible that coverage will terminate prior to the Maturity Date shown if the Company changes the interest rate or the Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates. CHANGES IN SPECIFIED BENEFIT AMOUNT OPTION The Schedule Page shows the option elected in the original application. The option may be changed by the Owner as allowed by the Company. If the Increasing Option is in effect and the Owner changes to the Level Option, the Specified Benefit Amount subsequent to this change will equal the total of the Specified Benefit Amount prior to the change plus the Accumulation Value. Thereafter, the Specified Benefit Amount will include the Accumulation Value. If the Level Option is in effect and the Owner changes to the Increasing Option, the Specified Benefit Amount subsequent to this change will equal the Specified Benefit Amount prior to the change less the Accumulation Value. Thereafter, the Specified Benefit Amount will not include the Accumulation Value. CHANGES IN SPECIFIED BENEFIT AMOUNT The Specified Benefit Amount of this Policy may be increased or decreased upon written request by the Owner subject to the following conditions: 1) Any decrease will become effective on the Monthly Deduction Day that falls on or next follows the date the request is received by the Company. Such decrease will reduce the Specified Benefit Amount in the following order: a) it will decrease the insurance provided by the most recent increases successively; b) It will decrease the Initial Specified Benefit Amount. 2) The Specified Benefit Amount may not be decreased to an amount less than $25,000. 3) The Specified Benefit Amount may not be changed by an amount less than $10,000. 4) Any request for an increase must be applied for on a supplemental application. Such increase will be subject to evidence of insurability satisfactory to the Company. Any increase will be subject to the sufficiency of the Accumulation Value, less any indebtedness, to cover the next Monthly Expense Charge. Any increase will become effective on the effective date shown on the Specification Endorsement. 5) The Specified Benefit Amount may not be increased if there has been a prior decrease. APPLICATION FOR ADDITIONAL INSURANCE Additional insurance on the life of the Insured's spouse or child may be applied forby supplemental application. Approval of the additional insurance shall be subject to evidence of insurability satisfactory to the Company. Additional insurance shall also be subject to the sufficiency of the Accumulation Value, less any indebtedness, to cover the next Monthly Expense Charge. Such new insurance will be provided by rider and will become effective on the effective date shown on the Specification Endorsement. L-1 (FPAL-5) GENERAL PROVISIONS THE CONTRACT This Policy, the attached application for this Policy, any attached riders, any supplemental applications for increases in the Specified Benefit Amount, and any Specification Endorsements make up the entire contract between the parties. This Policy shall take effect upon delivery, provided the Initial Premium has been paid, the Insured is living, and there has been no material change in the health of the Insured as shown in the application. After this Policy has been in force during the Insured's lifetime for two years from the date on which the Specified Benefit Amount is increased, the Company loses the right to contest a claim which involves the increase in Specified Benefit Amount. This provision does not apply to any Disability Benefit or Accidental Benefit attached to this Policy. MISSTATEMENT OF AGE OR SEX All statements made in the application are, in the absence of fraud, deemed representations and not warranties. No statement made by the Insured or on his behalf will be used in defense of a claim under this Policy unless it is made in a written application and a copy of the application containing that statement is attached to the Policy when issued. Policy years, policy months, and policy anniversaries are measured from the Date of Issue of the Policy. Attained age means age last birthday on the prior policy anniversary. Any change or waiver of any provision of this Policy must be in writing and signed by an officer of the Company. SUICIDE If the Insured dies by suicide while sane or insane, within two years from the Date of Issue, the Insurance Proceeds will not be paid. The amount payable will be the total of premiums paid less any indebtedness on this Policy, and less any Withdrawal and Partial Surrender amounts paid. A new two-year period will apply to any increase in the Specified Benefit Amount beginning on the date of each increase. The amount payable under this provision attributable to a policy increase will be the Costs of Insurance for that increase if death by suicide, while sane or insane, occurs during the first two years following the increase. If the Insured's age or sex has been misstated, the proceeds payable upon death will be: 1) the Accumulation Value on the date of death; plus 2) that amount of insurance which would have been purchased by the most recent Cost of Insurance deduction had the correct Cost of Insurance Rate been used. ANNUAL REPORT At least once each year the Company will send the Owner an Annual Report which shows: 1) The current Accumulation Value; 2) The current Surrender Value; 3) The amount of any outstanding policy loan; 4) Premiums paid since the last Report; 5) Expense Charges since the last Report. 6) The Specified Benefit Amount; 7) Interest credited since the last Report; and 8) Any Partial Surrenders or Withdrawals since the last report. The amount payable under this provision will be paid to the Beneficiary. INCONTESTABILITY After this Policy has been in force during the Insured's lifetime for two years from the Date of Issue, the Company loses the right to contest a claim based on statements made in the application. ILLUSTRATIVE REPORT The Company will provide an illustrative report of projected future Insurance Proceeds and Cash Values which will be sent to the Owner upon request. The Company may charge a reasonable fee for providing such a Report. L-2 (FPAL-5) CONTROL OF POLICY BENEFICIARY The Insurance Proceeds will be paid to the Beneficiary last named in writing by the Owner. Two or more Beneficiaries will receive equal shares of the proceeds unless a different allocation is specified. A Beneficiary must survive the Insured. Otherwise, his share will be paid to the surviving Beneficiary or Beneficiaries in equal shares. If no Beneficiary has been named or there are no surviving Beneficiaries, the Insurance Proceeds will be paid to the Owner, if living; otherwise to the Owner's estate. CHANGE OF BENEFICIARY CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP The Owner may name a new Owner by written notice mailed to the Company. The change will take effect on the day it was signed, subject to any action taken by the Company prior to the recording of the change at the Home Office. ASSIGNMENT This Policy may be assigned by the Owner as collateral. Any assignment must be in writing and a signed copy sent to the Company at its Home Office. The Owner may change any Beneficiary at any time while the Insured is living. A written notice of change must be sent to the Company at its Home Office. The change will take effect on the day it was signed, subject to any action taken by the Company prior to the recording of the change at the Home Office. OWNERSHIP This Policy belongs to the Owner. If the Owner dies, this Policy belongs to the Owner's designee, or the Owner's estate if no Owner's designee has been named. The rights of the Owner and the interest of any Beneficiary will be subject to the rights of any assignee of record as specified in the assignment. The Company is not subject to the rights of any assignee of record. The Company is not responsible for the validity or effect of any assignment. NON-PARTICIPATION Maccabees Life Insurance Company is a stock company. This Policy shall not participate in the divisible surplus of the Company. L-3 (FPAL-5) R1 PREMIUMS PAYMENT The Initial Premium is due on the Date of Issue and is payable in advance. Subsequent premiums are payable in advance of the period to which they apply. No benefit will be provided on the basis of any premium until that premium has been paid. The amounts and frequency of Planned Periodic Premium Payments are shown on the Schedule Page. Premiums must be paid to the Company at its Home Office. Upon request, a receipt signed by the President or Secretary of the Company will be furnished for any premium payment. Changes in frequency and increases or decreases in the amount of Planned Periodic Premium Payments may be made by the Owner. The Planned Periodic Premium cannot be changed to an amount less than $50.00. Premium payment notices will be sent to the Owner upon written request. The notices may be sent annually, semi-annually, or quarterly. Under the special payment facility, Planned Periodic Premium Payments of $25.00 or more may be made on a monthly basis. Additional premium payments may be made at any time during the continuance of this Policy. The Company reserves the right to refuse to accept any premiums which would disqualify this Policy from favorable tax treatment as life insurance under federal law. If premiums paid during any policy year exceed the federal life insurance premium guidelines, the Company will return the excess premiums with interest of at least 4% within sixty days after the end of the policy year. GRACE PERIOD Except as provided below, this Policy will enter the Grace Period if the Surrender Value on the Monthly Deduction Day is insufficient to cover the Monthly Expense Charge. (The Accumulation Value, Surrender Value, and Monthly Expense Charge are described in the Nonforfeiture Provisions.) The above notwithstanding, prior to the ninth policy anniversary, this Policy will enter the Grace Period if: The Accumulation Value less indebtedness on the Monthly Deduction Day is less than the Monthly Expense Charge; or if The Surrender Value on the Monthly Deduction Day is less than the Monthly Expense Charge; and The sum of the premiums paid since the Date of Issue, less any loans, Withdrawals or Partial Surrenders, is less than the Coverage Continuation Requirement as of the Monthly Deduction Day. As of each Monthly Deduction Day during the first nine policy years, the Coverage Continuation Requirement shall be the sum of the Coverage Continuation Components applicable to each policy month from the Date of Issue. The Coverage Continuation Component in effect on the Date of Issue is shown on the Schedule page. The Coverage Continuation Component will change as of the effective date of any increase in the Specified Benefit Amount, modification of rating classification, or any addition of, increase in, or maturity of, any rider. The Coverage Continuation Component in effect as of any Monthly Deduction Day will apply to the policy month next following. The Company will notify the Owner of any change in the Coverage Continuation Component. A Grace Period of sixty-one days will be allowed for the payment of premiums sufficient to cover any past due Monthly Expense Charges and applicable loan interest. Written notice of such premium will be mailed to the last known address of the Owner and any assignee of record at least thirty days before the Grace Period ends. If such premium is not paid within the Grace Period, all coverage will terminate without value at the end of the Grace Period. If a claim by death during the Grace Period becomes payable under the Policy, any overdue Monthly Expense Charge will be deducted from the Insurance Proceeds. REINSTATEMENT If this Policy terminates as provided in the Grace Period provision, the Owner may apply for reinstatement. The application must be received by the Company at its Home Office within five years of the date of termination, but before the Maturity Date, and must include: 1) evidence of insurability of the Insured satisfactory to the Company; 2) payment of a premium sufficient to prevent this Policy from entering a Grace Period for at least three months after the date of reinstatement; 3) payment or reinstatement of any policy loan; and 4) payment of interest on the reinstated loan from the date of reinstatement to the end of the policy year. Reinstatement will not be effective until the date the application is approved by the Company. The Incontestability provision with respect to the reinstatement application and the Suicide provision will apply from the effective date of reinstatement. 1 A /OnAI C% NONFORFEITURE PROVISIONS ACCUMULATION VALUE The Accumulation Value on the Date of Issue shall be at least 931/2 percent of premiums paid on or before the Date of Issue, less the Monthly Expense Charge for the first month. On each Monthly Deduction Day the Accumulation Value shall be calculated as (a), plus (b) plus (c), minus the sum of (d) plus (e) where: COST OF INSURANCE The Cost of Insurance is determined on a monthly basis. The Cost of Insurance is determined separately for the Initial Specified Benefit Amount and for each increase in Specified Benefit Amount. The Cost of Insurance is calculated as (a), multiplied by the result of (b) minus (c), where: (a) is the Accumulation Value on the preceding Monthly Deduction Day; (b) is one month's interest on (a); (c) is 931/2 percent or more of all premiums received since the preceding Monthly Deduction Day; (d) is the amount of any Partial Surrender, Partial Surrender Charge, Withdrawal and Withdrawal fee since the preceding Monthly Deduction Day; (e) is the Monthly Expense Charge for the month following the Monthly Deduction Day. On any day other than a Monthly Deduction Day, the Accumulation Value shall be calculated as (f) plus (g) minus (h), where: (f) is the Accumulation Value as of the preceding Monthly Deduction Day; (g) is 931/2 percent or more of all premiums received since the preceding Monthly Deduction Day; (h) is the amount of any Partial Surrender, Partial Surrender Charge, Withdrawal or Withdrawal fee since the preceding Monthly Deduction Day. MONTHLY EXPENSE CHARGE The Monthly Expense Charge shall be calculated as (i) plus Q), where: (i) is the Cost of Insurance (as described below) plus the cost of additional benefits provided by rider. (j) is the Administrative Charge. The Administrative Charge shall not exceed, but may be less than, the Maximum Administrative Charge shown on the Schedule Page. INTEREST RATE The interest rate used in the calculation of the Accumulation Value is guaranteed to be a minimum of .32737 percent per month, compounded monthly, which is equal to 4 percent per year compounded annually. Interest in excess of the guaranteed minimum rate may be credited as determined by the Company's Board of Directors. Interest credited on the portion of the Accumulation Value that is loaned will at no time be less than the guaranteed minimum interest rate. (a) is the Cost of Insurance Rate as described in the Cost of Insurance Rates section. (b) is the Insurance Proceeds at the beginning of the policy month divided by 1.0032737. (c) is the Accumulation Value at the beginning of the policy month. If the Accumulation Value is included in the Specified Benefit Amount and there have been increases in the Insurance Proceeds, then the Accumulation Value shall be first considered a part of the Initial Specified Benefit Amount. If the Accumulation Value exceeds the Initial Specified Benefit Amount, it shall then be considered a part of additional Specified Benefit Amounts resulting from increases in the order of the increases. Any deduction for the Cost of Insurance during the Grace Period shall not be considered a waiver by the Company of the terms of the Grace Period provision. Any such charge shall be deducted from the Accumulation Value as of the date of the charge. COST OF INSURANCE RATES The monthly Cost of Insurance Rate is based on the sex, attained age, and rating class of the person insured. Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates will be determined by the Company from time to time based on its expectations as to future mortality experience. However, the Cost of Insurance Rates will not be greater than those shown in the Table of Guaranteed Maximum Insurance Rates or as the same are amended by the rating factor, if any, shown on the Schedule Page. Any change in the Cost of Insurance Rates will be on a uniform basis for insureds of the same age, sex and classification whose policies have been in force for the same length of time. The interest rate used to calculate the guaranteed Cost of Insurance Rates is 4% per year. The Table of Guaranteed Maximum Insurance Rates is also applicable to increase amounts of insurance subject to any applicable rating factor shown on the Schedule Page. The guaranteed Cost of Insurance Rates are based on the 1980 Smoker or Nonsmoker Commissioner's Standard Ordinary Mortality Table (CSO), Age Last Birthday. L-5 (FPAL-5) NONFORFEITURE PROVISIONS (Continued) CASH VALUE The Cash Value shall be calculated as the Accumulation Value less the Surrender Charge. SURRENDER CHARGE The Surrender Charge is the lesser of (a) or (b), where: (a) is the Accumulation Value; (b) is the Maximum Surrender Charge shown on the Schedule Page multiplied by the factor from the Table of Surrender Charge Factors that corresponds to the policy year of surrender. SURRENDER CHARGE FOR INCREASES IN SPECIFIED BENEFIT AMOUNT If the Specified Benefit Amount is increased, a separate Surrender Charge will be applied at the time of the increase. The Specification Endorsement providing for the increase will include the Maximum Additional Surrender Charge resulting from the increase. The Additional Surrender Charge will equal the Maximum Additional Surrender Charge shown on the Specification Endorsement multiplied by the factor from the Table of Surrender Charge Factors that corresponds to the number of years since the increase. The Additional Surrender Charge resulting from an increase shall be added to the amount specified in (b) above to determine the total Surrender Charge. BASIS OF COMPUTATIONS Accumulation Values are based on the 1980 Smoker or Nonsmoker CSO Mortality Table, Age Last Birthday, with interest at 4 percent per year compounded annually. Accumulation Values are at least equal to those required on the Date of Issue by the state in which this Policy was purchased. Reserves are based on the 1980 Smoker or Nonsmoker CSO Mortality Table, Age Last Birthday, with interest at the Calendar Year Statutory Valuation Interest Rate. Reserves are calculated using a Modified Preliminary Term method, but are not less than the reserves calculated using the Commissioner's Reserve Valuation method. Where required, a detailed statement of the method of computation of Accumulation Values and reserves under this Policy has been filed with the insurance department of the state in which this Policy was purchased. CONTINUATION OF INSURANCE In the event Planned Periodic Premium payments are not continued, insurance coverage under this Policy and any benefits provided by rider will be continued in force. Such coverage shall be continued until termination as provided in the Grace Period provision. This provision shall not continue the Policy beyond the Maturity Date nor continue any rider beyond the date for its termination, as provided in the rider. If the Insured is living on the Maturity Date and the Policy is still in force, the Company will pay the Surrender Value to the Owner. WITHDRAWAL A Withdrawal from this Policy may be made at any time prior to termination upon written request by the Owner to the Company at its Home Office. The sum of all Withdrawals cannot equal or exceed 50% of the Surrender Value. When a Withdrawal is made, the amount of the Withdrawal will be deducted from the Accumulation Value. The Insurance Proceeds shall be reduced by the amount of the Withdrawal. An additional fee of $25.00 will be deducted from the Accumulation Value for each Withdrawal. Not more than three Withdrawals will be allowed in any policy year. The Company reserves the right to defer a Withdrawal for a period permitted by law, but not for more than six months from the date of receipt of the request by the Company at its Home Office, unless such payment would be used to pay premiums on policies in force with the Company. PARTIAL SURRENDER A Partial Surrender of this Policy may be made at any time prior to termination by written request of the Owner to the Company at its Home Office. A Partial Surrender is an amount which when added to all previous Partial Surrenders and Withdrawals equals or exceeds 50% of the Surrender Value. If a Partial Surrender is made, an additional fee will be deducted from the Accumulation Value as follows. The additional fee will equal the Surrender Charge multiplied by the ratio that the Partial Surrender bears to the Surrender Value. After a Partial Surrender, the Surrender Charge for the Policy will be reduced by the additional fee. The Insurance Proceeds, the Accumulation Value, and the Cash Value will be reduced by the amount of the Partial Surrender. Not more than three Partial Surrenders will be allowed in any policy year. The Company reserves the right to defer a Partial Surrender for a period permitted by law, but not for more than six months from the date of receipt of the request by the Company at its Home Office, unless such payment would be used to pay premiums on policies in force with the Company. L-6 (FPAL-5) The NONFORFEITURE PROVISIONS (Continued) SURRENDER AND SURRENDER VALUE This Policy may be surrendered at any time prior to termination upon written request by the Owner to the Company at its Home Office. The amount payable on surrender of this Policy shall be the Surrender Value, which is the Cash Value less any indebtedness, on the date of surrender. The Surrender Value will be paid in cash or under an elected Settlement Option. If surrender is requested under this section within 30 days after a policy anniversary, the Surrender Value shall not be less than the Surrender Value on that anniversary, less any Partial Surrenders, Withdrawals, or loans made on or after such anniversary. If this Policy is surrendered, coverage shall terminate as of the next Monthly Deduction Day. The Company reserves the right to defer the payment of the Surrender Value for the period permitted by law, but not for more than six months from the date of receipt of the request by the Company at its Home Office, unless such payment would be used to pay premiums on policies in force with the Company. POLICY LOAN PROVISIONS POLICY LOANS The Owner can borrow against this Policy as sole security for any amount up to the Loan Value at any time prior to the termination of this Policy. The loan must be requested by the Owner in writing. On a policy anniversary, premium due date, or during a Grace Period the Loan Value is the Cash Value less any loan and accrued interest. Otherwise, the Loan Value is the amount with interest which equals the Loan Value on the next policy anniversary. Before advancing the loan amount, the Company may withhold an amount sufficient to pay interest on total indebtedness to the end of the policy year and any Monthly Expense Charges due during the next three months, or to the end of the policy year, whichever occurs first. Loans under this policy will bear interest at a rate that is subject to adjustment on each policy anniversary. The initial interest rate charged on any loan will be the Company's Adjustable Loan Interest Rate in effect on the previous policy anniversary. As of each subsequent policy anniversary, the interest rate charged for the policy year following will be the Adjustable Loan Interest Rate in effect on that policy anniversary. The Owner will be notified of the initial interest rate at the time the loan request is made. The Company will also notify the Owner of any change in the interest rate applicable to an outstanding policy loan. No Policy will terminate in a policy year as the sole result of a change in the interest rate during that policy year. Insurance will remain in force until the time it would have otherwise terminated had the interest rate not been changed. The Owner may be required to sign a loan agreement assigning this Policy to the Company as security. The Company may delay the payment of the loan. Payment may be delayed up to six months from the date the request was received unless such payment would be used to pay premiums on policies in force with the Company. LOAN INTEREST RATE Interest is payable in advance on the first interest payment due date and on each policy anniversary that follows. The first interest payment due date is the date of the loan. Interest not paid when due is added to the loan and bears interest at the same rate as the loan. The Adjustable Loan Interest Rate will be determined as of the first day of each January, April, July, and October, and will be determined by comparing the Adjustable Loan Interest Rate in effect for the preceding three months with a maximum interest rate defined by law and described below. Any change in the Adjustable Loan Interest Rate will be subject to the following: L-7'(FPAL-5) (RI) POLICY LOAN PROVISIONS (Continued) a. The Adjustable Loan Interest Rate will be lowered to be equal to or less than the legal maximum interest rate if such legal maximum rate is .5% or more lower than the Adjusted Loan Interest Rate for the preceding three months. b. The Adjustable Loan Interest Rate may be increased by at least .5% but not higher than the legal maximum interest rate, if the legal maximum interest rate is .5% or more higher than the Adjustable Loan Interest Rate for the preceding three months. The Adjustable Loan Interest Rate will not exceed the greater of: (1) The Published Monthly Average for the calendar month ending two months before the date on which the rate is determined; or (2) The interest rate used to compute the Accumulation Value under the Policy during the applicable period plus 1% per year. The Published Monthly Average is Moody's Corporate Bond Yield Average-Monthly Average Corporate as published by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., or any successor to it. In the event that Moody's Corporate Bond Yield Average-Monthly Average Corporate is no longer published, the Published Monthly Average will be a substantially similar average established by regulations issued by the Insurance Commissioner of the state in which this Policy was purchased. REPAYMENT AND TERMINATION Policy loans,. including accrued interest, may be repaid in whole or part at any time prior to termination of this Policy. A loan outstanding at the end of the Grace Period may not be repaid until this Policy is reinstated. All funds received by the Company under this Policy will be credited as premium payment unless clearly marked for loan repayment. Whenever the policy loan plus accrued interest equals or exceeds the Cash Value of this Policy, written notification will be sent to the last known address of the Owner and assignee, if any. This Policy will terminate sixty-one days after the date of mailing the notification. 1 0 ienwi C% of SETTLEMENT OPTIONS AVAILABILITY The Insurance Proceeds of this Policy will be paid in one sum unless a payment option is chosen. All or part of the Insurance Proceeds may be applied under one of the following options. However, the amount to be applied must be at least $3,500.00. The amount must also provide a periodic payment of at least $20.00 to each payee.

Payments will be made under any single premium immediate life or joint and survivor annuity contract as may be issued by the Company on the date proceeds become payable. The amount of each annuity payment will be 102% of the payment which the amount retained by the Company would otherwise purchase. The Company's rates in use on such date will be used as the basis for payment. The Owner may elect a Settlement Option or change a prior election at any time while the Insured is living. The election must be recorded by the Company at its Home Office before it is effective. The Company shall not be liable for any payments it may have made before receiving that notice. If no option is in effect at the Insured's death, any Beneficiary may choose a Settlement Option. Unless this election is made irrevocable before the proceeds are placed under a Settlement Option, the payee may change the election at any time. OPTIONS 1. INTEREST OPTION.

Under Options 3 and 5, proof satisfactory to the Company a) of the date of birth and sex of the payees and b) that the payee is alive may be required before payment is made. In the event of the death of a Payee under a Settlement Option containing a period certain, any remaining proceeds shall be paid to the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries designated by the Owner. If no Beneficiary has been named or there are no surviving Beneficiaries, the proceeds will be paid to the Payee's designated Beneficiary or the Payee's estate. PAYMENT The first payment under Options 2, 3 and 4 will be due the date the proceeds are applied under the Settlement Option. If the proceeds are payable due to the Insured's death, the first payment will be due on the date of death. The first payment under Options 1 and 5 will be due one, three, six, or twelve months thereafter, depending on the mode of payment selected. EXCESSINTEREST The interest payments under Option 1 and the guaranteed payments under Options 2, 3, or 4 are based on a guaranteed interest rate of 3% per year.

Descriptive Title of Policy FLEXIBLE PREMIUM ADJUSTABLE LIFE V- 250 Policy Number 4104-287 Index numbers based on cash values and death benefits produced with the Planned Periodic Premium shown and using GUARANTEED cost of insurance rates and the GUARANTEED interest rate of 4%: 10 Year Surrender Index 5.93 20 Year Surrender Index 8.20 Index numbers based on cash values and death benefits produced with the Planned Periodic Premium shown and using CURRENT, NON-GUARANTEED cost of insurance rates and a NON-GUARANTEED interest rate of 7.75 %: 10 Year Surrender Index 3.02 20 Year Surrender Index 1.85 The non-guaranteed interest rate shown is credited to that part of the cash value exceeding $1,000. The guaranteed rate applies to the first $1,000 of cash value. If a policy loan exists, the guaranteed rate only, and not the non-guaranteed rate, applies to that portion of the cash value borrowed. If the interest rate used is higher than that shown, or if the costs of insurance rates are lowered, within the 10 and 20 year period, the Index will be lower. If not, the index will be the same or higher. The Surrender Comparison index was designed to measure the relative cost of life insurance protection and may be useful for comparison of similar policies offered by other companies. Technically, the index shows the relationship between the amounts paid by the insured (the average annual premiums) and the amounts paid by the insurer (the cash value of the policy in the event of surrender over periods of 10 and 20 years all adjusted for compound interest at the rate of five percent per annum to reflect the timing of the payments). When comparing similar policies, if all things are equal, the policy with the lower Index is generally the lower cost policy and the better buy in the event that the policy was surrendered at the end of the designated period. If death would occur during the designated period, the policy with the lower Index would not necessarily be the lower cost policy. The index does not take into account, among other things (1) the value of the services of an agent or company; (2) the relative strength and reputation of the company; and (3) small differences in policy provisions. The Index does assume that annual premiums are paid, and that no additional benefit provisions are included. 16-6706 (R2) W i i A rn 01 Klti? ?sSoc?" c 1 - crz) Agency Agent ?, I! 1p m rn A?. h Code _..,Ln Credit ? 96 Code Agent Code Credit 96 APPLICATION FOR INSURANCE TO PART 1 PA 746591 MACCABEES LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 1 a Proposed Insured (Print first name, initial, last name) Z. l "C15*1 Soc.
