1 ING LIFELONG INCOME Introduction The Key Information Document (KID) is a document containing a great many specialised terms and technical details. For that reason, we explain the basic characteristics of the product in a nutshell below. For the sake of clarity, please note that this page does not replace the KID itself. We strongly advise you to read the KID thoroughly, as well as the document with Other pre-contractual information. What does ING Lifelong Income offer? As the name indicates, you receive a guaranteed annuity for the rest of your life. When subscribing to the contract, the annuity is calculated based on your age at that moment and the single premium (minimum of 50,000 euros). The amount of the annuity can be increased if the financial markets do well, but after an increase in the amount of the annuity it cannot go back down. Each payment of the annuity results in a reduction of the remaining capital. If the remaining capital is reduced to zero as a result, the guaranteed annuity amount at that time remains guaranteed for the remaining term of the contract. What happens with the premium? The single premium (at least 50,000 euros) is invested in a diversified fund, and the value of your contract varies according to the value of the fund. Details about the composition of this fund can be found on pages 2 and 6. You can read about the possible impact of the fund s performance on the premium on page 3. What about tax? You do not pay tax on the original annuity. If the annuity increases, you are only taxed on the difference between the original annuity and the new annuity. More details can be found on page 7. What are the costs associated with this contract? There are both one-off and annual costs associated with this contract. Please go to page 6 for a detailed overview of these costs. You can see what the impact on your long-term return may be in a simulation on page 4. Are you obliged to retain the product for the rest of your life? No, you can surrender the entire remaining capital at any time. Please note, however, that during the first four years following the conclusion of the contract doing so will incur extra costs. See page 4 for more info. As from eight years following conclusion of the contract it is also possible to withdraw just a portion of the remaining capital (without costs). 1

ING Lifelong Income ensures that the income will never drop, provided that the customer does not withdraw the reserve partially or in full. Even if the reserve were to fall to zero, the customer will continue to receive the income for life. Once every three years, the insurer will assess the value of the reserve. If it is higher than the value of the initial investment (or, where appropriate, the value of your reserve on the previous assessment), NN Insurance Belgium SA/NV will then increase the amount of the income. The overall premium: gross single premium of 10,000 euro 1 (excluding fees and taxes). The biometric risk premium: amount to 108 euro. See for the impact of this cost the table Cost over time of the section What are the costs? of this key information document.

The summary risk indicator is a guide to the level of risk of this product compared to other products. It shows how likely it is that the product will lose money because of movements in the markets or because we are not able to pay you. We have classified this product as 2 out of 7, which is a low risk class. This rates the potential losses from future performance at a low level and poor market conditions are very unlikely to impact our capacity to pay you. This product does not include any protection from future market performance so you could lose some or all of your investment. If we are not able to pay you what is owed, you could lose your entire investment. 1 The mentioned overall premium is an example.

In the event the insurer goes bankrupt, these assets are reserved as a priority in order to fulfil the commitments towards policyholders and/or beneficiaries. Moreover, in the event that NN Insurance Belgium SA/NV defaults on its payments or goes bankrupt, annuity payments may be stopped and you may not be able to recover the entire value of your policy s reserve. ING Lifelong Income is not protected by the Belgian Special Protection Fund for Deposits and Life Insurance because there is no guarantee scheme for branch 23 products. What are the costs? The Reduction in Yield (RIY) shows what impact the total costs you pay will have on the investment return you might get. The total costs take into account one-off and ongoing costs. 3

How long should I hold it and can I take money out early? Recommended holding period: lifelong because the income is guaranteed for life (calculations based on 22 years because 67 years is legal age for retirement and the related life expectancy is 22 years). Partial surrender: After 8 years, the policyholder may withdraw part of the policy reserve provided such withdrawal amounts to a minimum of 2,500 euro and that a minimum of 2,500 euro remains in the reserve following the withdrawal. Following a partial withdrawal, the guaranteed lifelong annuity will be recalculated accordingly. Total surrender: The policyholder may withdraw the entire reserve of the contract at any time. The withdrawal penalty only applies for the first four years of the contract. The first month, after the 30 days of the cancellation period, it is 4.80%, thereafter it drops by 0.10% a month. Cancelation period: the policyholder has the right to terminate the contract within 30 days of the effective date. The amount of the reserve will be refunded, increased with any subscription charges and taxes paid. There are no cancellation costs. In case of surrender or cancelation, the performance (return) can be impacted (see performance scenarios ) and there is impact on the risk profile. The impact of the cost in case of a partial of total surrender is shown in Table 1 Costs over time. In case of a substantial withdrawal of the fund (more than 80% of its value or of more than 1.25 million euro), we may temporarily suspend the calculation of the value of units, and therefore also investment, withdrawal and transfer transactions.

5 Other pre-contractual information - the terms of the products applying on 01/06/2018 ING Lifelong Income product of NN Insurance Belgium SA/NV Premium Single-premium contract (no supplementary deposits allowed). Minimum gross single premium of 50,000 EUR (excluding fees and taxes). If a married or cohabiting couple takes out this product at the same time, two contracts with a minimum gross value of euros 25, each (excluding fees and taxes) may be taken out. If the policyholder has already taken out a similar policy, the minimum gross amount of the new policy is euros 25, (excluding fees and taxes). Net asset value The net amount deposited is converted into fund units. The deposit is converted into units by the latest on the first valuation of the fund following the date the deposit is received and provided the NN Insurance Belgium SA/NV account number is credited with the amount of the deposit by the latest three bank working days before such valuation. Otherwise, the conversion into units will be calculated on the basis of the next valuation. The net asset value is calculated by dividing the value of the fund s assets, minus the management fee, charges arising from the management of the fund (as indicated in the management regulations) and any taxes, levies and duties, by the number of units on the valuation date. The net asset value is fixed once a week, on Wednesdays. Each week NN Insurance Belgium SA/NV informs the press of the net asset value and always indicates the net asset value in the annual policy statement. Covers As long as the insured is alive The amount of the guaranteed lifelong annuity NN Insurance Belgium SA/NV will pay out a guaranteed lifelong annuity. The policyholder may request that such amount be paid according to the frequency of his/her choice: i.e. monthly, quarterly, half yearly or annually. Is calculated at the start of the contract on the basis of: the net amount deposited (is the gross amount deposited after deduction of fee and taxes) the conversion rate applied. The conversion rate is based on the age of the insured when he signs the con-tract. For the minimum age of 50 years it is 1.75%. This percentage rises by 0.10% per year the insured is over the age of 50 when the contract is taken out. The maximum percentage applied is 5.25% in the case of an insured aged 85. This percentage continues to apply throughout the lifetime of the contract. The guaranteed lifelong annuity is calculated on an annual basis by multiplying the basic reserve (at the start of the contract this is the net amount deposited) by the applicable conversion rate. If the frequency is not annual, the amount will be reduced proportionally in accordance with the frequency chosen. 5

6 Evaluation moment Once every three years after the contract became effective, the reserve value known at that time will be compared to the basic reserve. If, on the comparison date, the reserve is higher than the basic reserve, such reserve at the time of comparison will become the new basic reserve and the periodical lifelong annuity will be recalculated. If, at the time of comparison, the reserve is lower than the applicable basic reserve at that time, the current basic reserve will be maintained until the next comparison date. In that case, the level of the periodical guaranteed lifelong annuity will be maintained. Each periodical payment of the guaranteed lifelong annuity will reduce the reserve in the contract through the sale of units. If such payment depletes the reserve, the guaranteed lifelong annuity valid at that time will remain at the same level for the remainder of the contract. In the event of a partial withdrawal (only possible after a period of 8 years), the basic reserve will be reduced proportionally and the guaranteed lifelong annuity will be recalculated. In the event of a total withdrawal the lifelong annuity will no longer be paid out. The policyholder may not request that the annuity payments be stopped. Costs Entry fee Management fee on the funds Cover charges for the guaranteed lifelong annuity Amounts to 2% and is calculated on the single deposit, after deduction of all applicable levies and taxes. Example: with a deposit of EUR 100,000, first the tax on life insurance premiums of 2% is deducted as follows: EUR 100,000/1.02 = EUR 98, and then the entry fee is deducted as follows: EUR 98,039.22*0.98 = EUR 96,078.43, and it is this latter sum that is the net premium that is invested in the fund. 0.65% on an annual basis and is calculated proportionally on the net asset value each month. The fund invests in four other underlying funds (managed by NN Investment Partners) and the latter also applies own management fees. These management fees are already included in the net asset value of the four underlying funds. These fees for the four funds together varies and amount to an average of % and a maximum of 1.10% per annum. In addition to these management fees, there are also costs resulting from the management of the fund, such as charges for the custody of securities, administrative costs, cost of the annual reports and publications, transaction costs, and others. This list is non-exhaustive and can be amended at any time according to the aforementioned formalities. Both the management fee and the costs resulting from the management of the fund are included in the fund s net asset value. These charges include compensation to ING Belgium for its services as an intermediary. See also the policy of conflicts of interest on the websites of NN Insur-ance Belgium SA/NV and ING Belgium SA. The guarantee charges for the guaranteed lifelong income amount to 1.10% on an annual basis. They are calculated on the basic reserve or on the new basic reserve if the guaranteed lifelong income is increased. These charges are levied on the number of units obtained, for the first time when the contract is first valued. Afterwards, the payment will be made once every 4 weeks by cancelling the required number of (fractional) units, provided there are still units on the contract. 6

Not applicable Taxation In accordance with current tax legislation: The policyholder s deposit is subject to a premium tax of 2.00%. Guaranteed lifelong annuity The guaranteed lifelong annuity is taxed according to the annuity taxation system, which means that only the income (yield) included in the lifelong annuity represents taxable income from movable property. The taxable income corresponds to the difference between the increased guaranteed lifelong annuity (following a three-yearly increase) and the guaranteed lifelong annuity determined at the start of the contract. The taxable income is taxed separately at 27.00% (plus the municipal tax). NN Insurance Belgium SA/NV will declare such income on a tax form. The beneficiary must declare such income on his/her personal income tax return. 7

8 Death of the insured Withdrawals In the event of the death of the insured, the taxable income corresponds to the positive difference between the contract reserve at the time of death and the single premium paid in (after deduction of taxes but before entry fees), minus the untaxed portion of the guaranteed lifelong annuity already paid out by NN Insurance Belgium SA/NV before the death. The taxable income is taxed separately at 27% (plus the municipal tax). NN Insurance Belgium SA/NV will declare such income on a tax form. The beneficiary must declare such income on his/her personal income tax return. The general rules regarding death duties apply. A withdrawal is to be considered as a prepayment of future lifelong annuity. Consequently, the annuity taxation system applies and only the yield included in the withdrawal value represents taxable income from movable property. This also applies in case of withdrawals in the legal reflection period of 30 days. The taxable income is equivalent to the difference between the contract reserve and the single premium paid in (after taxes but before entry fees), minus the untaxed portion of the periodical income already paid out. In the event of a partial withdrawal, a proportional rate is applied depending on the proportion of the reserve which is withdrawn. The taxable income is taxed separately at 27% (plus the municipal tax). NN Insurance Belgium SA/NV will declare such income on a tax form. The beneficiary must declare such income on his/her personal income tax return. These rules apply in accordance with current tax law and subject to change in the future. In case of change of these tax rules, NN Insurance Belgium SA/NV cannot be held responsible for the consequences. Please note: tax treatment depends on the individual situation of the client and may change in the future. When reference is made to a tax system this must be understood to mean the tax system applicable to an average retail client with the capacity of a natural person who is a Belgian resident.
