Product Guide Thank you for your interest in the Freedom Global IUL II & Freedom Index Universal Life II products. Uncertain economic times may have left clients feeling uneasy with traditional universal life products. Index Universal Life products may be the answer. Over the years, these products have gained popularity due to the higher Policy Value accumulation potential combined with the guaranteed minimum interest rates they provide. The Company s two IUL policies offer the same flexible benefits with different Index Account choices. Both Index Accounts utilize the annual point-to-point crediting method. The Freedom Global IUL II offers a Global Index Account which utilizes the S&P 500 Index, the EURO STOXX 50 Index, and the Hang Seng Index to determine Excess Index Interest. The Freedom Index Universal Life II offers an S&P 500 Index Account which utilizes the S&P 500 Index to determine Excess Index Interest. Each product offers a Basic Interest Account with a guaranteed minimum interest rate of 2%, and an Index Account with a guaranteed minimum interest rate of 1%. This guide provides detailed product information for both the Freedom Global IUL II and the Freedom Index Universal Life II policies.

Illustration System In order to comply with the NAIC Model Regulations, every index universal life policy must be illustrated for the client. Our IUL products are illustrated on TransWare software which can be accessed on the Company website. Upon request at any time, we will send the policy owner an illustration of the policy s benefits and values. Important Note If no hard copy illustration accompanied the application submission, or a policy is to be issued other than as applied for, we will require an illustration (produced by the Company-developed software) before we issue the policy. This is required for all jurisdictions. The Death Benefit The death benefit can be applied in many ways. It can help protect a client s family. It can help protect a client s business with key person insurance or as part of a buy-sell agreement. The client has the flexibility to select the death benefit option that can help meet their objectives. Level Face Amount Increasing Face Amount plus Policy Value These amounts may be increased to meet IRS guidelines. 4 Freedom Global IUL II SM Freedom Index Universal Life II SM Product Guide
Product Guide Change in Death Benefit Option The policy owner may change the death benefit option after the third policy year. Changes in the death benefit option are limited to once per year. No change in the option will be allowed if the new Face Amount would be less than the Minimum Face Amount for the policy and risk class. Just after an option change is elected, the net amount at risk will be the same, but may change thereafter. Death benefit option changes are not permitted after attained age 95. Increases and Decreases of the Face Amount Insurance objectives can change over time as the client s income changes, the client s family situation changes, or for any other reason. As situations change, the amount of necessary insurance coverage can also change. We provide clients the ability to adjust their Face Amounts if their needs change. Adjustments can only be made once in any twelve-month period. Increases We allow the client to increase the Face Amount after the first policy year (subject to age and underwriting limitations at the time the change is requested) prior to age 86. The minimum increase amount is $25,000. Additional surrender charges will apply to increases in the Face Amount. No increases are allowed on policies issued in the state of Arizona. Decreases Decreases in the Face Amount are permitted after the third policy year. The minimum decrease amount is $25,000. Prior to the later of age 65 or the end of the surrender charge period, we may limit decreases to no more than 20% of the Face Amount prior to the decrease. A decrease will not be allowed if the new Face Amount would be less than the minimum Face Amount for the policy and risk class, or if it would violate section 7702 requirements. Premiums Subject to certain limitations, this policy provides flexible premium payment options. Payments can be increased or decreased, made more or less frequently provided there is sufficient Cash Surrender Value* to cover the Monthly Deductions and the Index Account Monthly Charge. Net Premiums Net premiums are equal to gross premiums paid less applicable premium expense charges. Net premiums are allocated to the Basic Interest Account or an Index Account in accordance with the policy holder s direction. The allocation percentage must be a whole number and not a fraction. We must receive notification in writing to transfer money or change the Net Premium allocation. Change in Net Premium allocation is only allowed once per month with the effective date on the next Monthly Date. There is no charge for changing the Net Premium allocation. Minimum Monthly No-Lapse Premium The Minimum Monthly No-Lapse Premium is the minimum premium required to keep the No-Lapse Guarantee in effect. Until the No-Lapse Guarantee period ends, a policy will not lapse for insufficient Cash Surrender Value provided the cumulative Minimum Monthly No-Lapse Premium requirements net of any cumulative withdrawals and any loan balance are met. Policy and rider changes will alter the Minimum Monthly No-Lapse Premium. * Cash Surrender Value is the amount available upon surrender. Cash Surrender Value equals the Policy Value less any surrender charge, less any loan balance. t r a n s a m e r i c a 5
Freedom Global IUL II SM Freedom Index Universal Life II SM Payment of the no-lapse premium assures that the policy will remain in force during the guarantee period. However, by paying only the no-lapse premium, the client may be forgoing the opportunity to build up additional Policy Value. We reserve the right to require that the policy will not be issued for an initial premium plus planned premiums for the No-Lapse Guarantee period that are less than the cumulative Minimum Monthly No-Lapse Premium required during that period. If base or rider coverage has been added or reduced during the No-Lapse period, the Company will recalculate the Minimum Monthly No-Lapse Premium to reflect the new coverage. However, the No-Lapse Guarantee period will not be extended. No-Lapse Guarantee* Period We will guarantee the death benefit, regardless of Policy Value during the Minimum No-Lapse Guarantee period, providing the cumulative Minimum Monthly No-Lapse Premium requirements net of any cumulative withdrawals and any loan balance are met. The No-Lapse Guarantee period is based on issue age. Issue Ages 0 60: lesser of 20 years or until age 65 Issue Ages 61 85: 5 years If the requirements of the No-Lapse Guarantee are not met and the Cash Surrender Value is not enough to meet the Monthly Deductions and Index Account Monthly Charge, a grace period will begin and the policy will lapse unless sufficient payment is made. The grace period is 61 days. Allowing the policy to lapse may result in adverse tax consequences. Tax-Free Loans and Withdrawals** Subject to certain limitations, the policy s Cash Surrender Value can be accessed through policy loans and withdrawals for uses such as college expenses, supplemental retirement income and other needs. Loans** Here are some important details regarding loans: n The portion of the Policy Value borrowed is secured by transferring that amount from the Basic Interest or Index Account to the loan reserve. n Current loan interest rate on Indebtedness is 2.75% in arrears (current preferred rate after 10 Policy Years is 2.00% on Policy Value in excess of premiums less withdrawals and outstanding loans). n Maximum loan guaranteed interest rate is 3.00% (maximum preferred rate after 10 Policy Years is 2.25% on Policy Value in excess of premiums less withdrawals and outstanding loans). n Loan reserve is credited with interest at 2.00% in arrears. * After the No-Lapse Guarantee Period or if the cumulative Minimum Monthly No-Lapse Premium requirements are not met, then fluctuations in interest rates and/or policy charges may require the payment of additional premiums to keep the policy in force. Guarantees are based on the claims paying ability of the Company. ** Distributions such as loans and withdrawals can only be made if the policy has been in force long enough to accumulate sufficient value. Loans, withdrawals and death benefit accelerations will reduce the Policy Value and death benefit. Loans are subject to interest charges. If a policy lapses while a loan is outstanding, adverse tax consequences may result. Policy loans are generally not taxable when taken and cash withdrawals are not taxable until they exceed basis in the policy. However, if the policy is treated as a modified endowment contract (MEC) by IRC Sec. 7702A, withdrawals and loans are taxable when taken to the extent of gain in the contract and may also be subject to a 10% federal income tax penalty if taken prior to age 59½. Cash distributions associated with benefit reductions, including reductions caused by withdrawals during the first 15 years, may be taxable. Policy owners should consult with their tax advisor regarding their particular situation. 6 Freedom Global IUL II SM Freedom Index Universal Life II SM Product Guide

Freedom Global IUL II SM Freedom Index Universal Life II SM Account Options Policy owners can choose between an Index Account, the Basic Interest Account, or any combination of the two. The Account Options consist of one or more Segments to which net premiums and/or transfers of Policy Values have been allocated. The value of an Account Option is the sum of its Segment values. Each Segment will end on its first anniversary, one year from the beginning date of that Segment. Each net premium or transfer is allocated to a Segment associated with the policy month in which it was received. At the end of each Segment Period, a new Segment Period begins with the value from the prior Period. Index Accounts Each IUL product offers its own unique Index Account with an associated Cap. The Global Index Account is available in the Freedom Global IUL II policy. The S&P 500 Index Account is available in the Freedom Index Universal Life II policy. Cap The maximum Index Change percentage that can be used in the calculation of Excess Index Interest that can be credited to an Index Account Segment for that Segment s current 12 month Segment Period. At the end of each Segment Period, we compare the Cap rate declared at the beginning of that Segment to the calculated Index Change percentage. The interest crediting rate equals the lesser of the Cap or the Index Change percentage. Caps are subject to change and the Cap for any Segment may increase or decrease, but will never be less than the current interest rate for the Basic Interest Account. The Cap is set by the Company at its discretion at the beginning of each Segment Period and may differ between Index Account Segments. Once a Cap is declared for a Segment, it applies until the beginning of the next Segment Period. Policy owners will only be informed in writing of the current Caps when they receive their Annual Statements. Basic Interest Account The portion of the Policy Value in the Basic Interest Account earns interest at rates declared by the Company. The interest rates on the Basic Interest Account Segments will never be less than an effective annual rate of 2.00%, but there is no guarantee that the rates will be greater than 2.00%. We will credit interest to each Basic Interest Account Segment on each Monthly Date. At the end of the Segment Period, we will declare an interest rate that will apply until the end of the next Segment Period. Transfers Transfers from an Index Account to the Basic Interest Account are only allowed at the end of an Index Account Segment Period. Transfers from the Basic Interest Account to an Index Account are only allowed on the first day of a policy month, which generally does not correspond to the calendar month. Unless otherwise specified, references to Index Account are intended to mean both the S&P 500 Index Account in the Freedom Index Universal Life II and the Global Index Account in the Freedom Global IUL II. 8 Freedom Global IUL II SM Freedom Index Universal Life II SM Product Guide
Product Guide The Freedom Global IUL II Global Index Account Instead of crediting interest at an interest rate declared in advance, Excess Index Interest may be credited to each Global Index Account Segment as of the end of the Segment Period. Any Excess Index Interest credited to the Global Index Account is based, in part, on changes in the S&P 500 Index, the EURO STOXX 50 Index and the Hang Seng Index, excluding dividend income. Amounts allocated to the Global Index Account earn interest at a guaranteed minimum effective annual interest rate of 1% throughout each Segment Period. At the end of each Global Index Account Segment Period, We determine whether any Excess Index Interest (interest exceeding guaranteed minimum interest) will be credited for the Segment Period just ended. The amount of the Excess Index Interest credited at the end of the Segment Period depends on the value in the Global Index Account at the beginning of the Segment Period, any change in a weighted average of the values of the indexes, and the applicable Cap. Monthly deductions, index account monthly charges, and policy owner transactions such as loans or withdrawals will reduce the amount of Excess Index Interest. No Excess Index Interest is credited during the Segment Period. Any Policy Values determined during the Segment Period, including the net death benefit or cash surrender value, will be based only on the guaranteed minimum interest credited throughout the Segment Period. Index Descriptions S&P 500 Index The S&P 500 Index tracks 500 large cap common stocks actively traded in the United States, and is one of the most well known market benchmarks. EURO STOXX 50 Index The EURO STOXX 50 Index is comprised of 50 large cap stocks from leading European blue-chip companies. The stocks used in this index are selected from countries in the European Union. Hang Seng Index The Hang Seng Index is another index used in the Freedom Global IUL II policy s Global Index Account. The index has a long history beginning in the 60s and is one of the most recognized indicators of the stock market performance in Hong Kong.

Freedom Global IUL II SM Freedom Index Universal Life II SM Calculating Excess Index Interest The Excess Interest, if any, for the Global Index Account is based on changes in the values of external indexes. The index percentage change for the external indexes are calculated as follows: (A minus B) divided by B, where: A = The Index Value on the Ending Index Date for that segment; B = The Index Value on the Beginning Date for that segment. The Index Value is the closing value of the Index, excluding dividends, on a date on which the Index is published. We use a weighted calculation to determine any excess interest. To arrive at the weighted average of the index changes, we apply the following factors: 50% to the percentage change in the S&P 500 or the EURO STOXX 50 index, whichever is higher 30% to the percentage change in the S&P 500 or the EURO STOXX 50 index, whichever is lower 20% to the percentage change in the Hang Seng Index regardless of the change in its index value The following examples illustrate the calculation. These examples are not a representation of historical, current or future index changes. Assume the following changes in index values at the end of each Segment Period. Hypothetical Segment Period Results: Index Index Change for Segment 1 Index Change for Segment 2 Index Change for Segment 3 S&P 500 5% -3% 12% EURO STOXX 50 6% -5% 12% Hang Seng 7% -7% 14% 10 Freedom Global IUL II SM Freedom Index Universal Life II SM Product Guide

The Global Index Account is credited either the Cap rate or the weighted average index change, whichever is less. If the weighted average index change is negative, the Excess Index Interest is 0%. If the weighted average index change is greater than the Cap, the Weighted Average Index Change is adjusted to equal the Cap. The Excess Index Interest for the Segment Period is the dollar amount based on the capped percentage minus the minimum guaranteed interest already credited.

Freedom Global IUL II SM Freedom Index Universal Life II SM The Freedom Index Universal Life II The S&P 500 Index Account Available in the Freedom Index Universal Life II. Instead of crediting interest at a rate declared in advance, Excess Index Interest may be credited to each S&P 500 Index Account Segment based in part, on changes in the S&P 500 Index, excluding dividend income. Amounts allocated to the S&P 500 Index Account earn interest at a guaranteed minimum effective annual interest rate of 1% throughout each Segment Period. The amount of Excess Index Interest credited at the end of the Segment Period depends on the value in the S&P 500 Index Account at the beginning of the Segment Period, any change in the value of the index, and the applicable Cap. Monthly deductions, index account monthly charges, and policy owner transactions such as loans or withdrawals will reduce the amount of Excess Index Interest. No Excess Index Interest is credited during the Segment Period. Any Policy Values determined during the Segment Period, including the net death benefit or cash surrender value, will be based only on the guaranteed minimum interest credited throughout the Segment Period. Index Change The Index Change percentage for an S&P 500 Index Account Segment is calculated as follows: (A minus B) divided by B, where: A = The Index Value on the Ending Index Date for that segment; B = The Index Value on the Beginning Date for that segment. The Index Value is the closing value of the Index, excluding dividends, generally as of 4:00 P.M. Eastern time on a date on which the Index is published. The Index Change percentage is adjusted so that it will neither exceed the applicable Index Account Segment Cap nor be less than 0%. The Cap puts an upper limit on the Index Change. The Beginning Index Date is the first Monthly Date for an Index Account Segment. The Ending Index Date is the Monthly Date twelve policy months after the Beginning Index Date. Beginning Index Dates and Ending Index Dates are reset on each segment anniversary. Excess Index Interest for an Index Account Segment as of its Ending Date is calculated as follows: (a multiplied by b) minus c where: a: The Index Change percentage as described on the previous page. b: The Segment s adjusted beginning value is determined as of the Segment s Beginning Date. We start with any value renewing from a prior Segment Period, after we have applied any Excess Index Interest for that period and deducted any transfers from the Segment occurring at that time. Then we add any net premiums, loan repayments and transfers applied to the Segment on its Beginning Date. Finally, we subtract amounts due to the following activity occurring during the Segment Period: 1. Any amounts deducted for withdrawals; 2. Any amounts transferred for Policy loans; and 3. One half of the amounts taken for Monthly Deductions and one half of the Index Account Monthly Charges. 12 Freedom Global IUL II SM Freedom Index Universal Life II SM Product Guide
Product Guide c: Any interest previously credited to the Segment during the Segment Period at the Index Account Guaranteed Minimum Interest Rate. The Excess Index Interest credited to an Index Account Segment will never be less than zero. Policy Value The Policy Value is the starting point for calculating important values under the policy, such as the Cash Surrender Value* and, in some circumstances, the net death benefit. There is no guaranteed minimum Policy Value. The policy may lapse if the client does not have sufficient Policy Value in the policy to pay the Monthly Deductions, the Index Account Monthly Charge, the surrender charge and/or any outstanding loan amount and accrued loan interest. The Policy Value is comprised of the value of the Basic Interest Account, the Index Account and the loan reserve. Reinstatement The owner may elect to reinstate the policy within three years of the date the policy lapses. Evidence of insurability is required to reinstate, and the Insured must qualify for the same class of risk. If the No-Lapse Period has expired, the amount required to reinstate would be equal to: n One Monthly Deduction and Index Account Monthly Charge due at the time of termination, plus n Two Monthly Deductions and Index Account Monthly Charges due in advance at the time of reinstatement, plus n An amount sufficient to increase the Policy Value above any surrender charge. The amount needed to reinstate the policy during the No-Lapse Guarantee Period would be the lesser of the above or: n The total Minimum Monthly No-Lapse Premium from issue through the month of lapse, plus; n Two months of Minimum Monthly No-Lapse Premium, minus; n Any premiums already paid net of any withdrawals and loan balance. The No-Lapse Period is not extended by the amount of time the policy was in a lapse status. The Company will not reinstate a Loan Balance on the contract. The period of time in which the policy was in a lapse status does not count toward the surrender charge period. Therefore, a policy that lapses in year 5 and is reinstated in year 8 will have 5 years left of surrender charges. Summary of Charges Premium Expense Charge The following charge is applied to all premium payments, including 1035 Exchanges, prior to the payment being allocated to the account options. Current & Guaranteed: 6% In Puerto Rico: Current: 10% Guaranteed Maximum: 12% Index Account Monthly Charge The Index Account Monthly Charge is 0.06% (0.72% annually) of the Index Account Value (current and guaranteed). This charge is taken on the monthly policy date through age 120, from the highest numbered segment first. * Cash Surrender Value is the amount available upon surrender. Cash Surrender Value equals the Policy Value less any surrender charge, less any loan balance. t r a n s a m e r i c a 13
Freedom Global IUL II SM Freedom Index Universal Life II SM Monthly Deductions Monthly Deductions will be taken from the Basic Interest Account and the Index Account in proportion to the values of those accounts on the Monthly Date. The Monthly Date is the same day in each month as the policy date. Monthly Deductions will be taken from the highest numbered Segment first and then from the next highest numbered Segment. On each Monthly Date, a deduction will be made from the Policy Value equal to the sum of the: Monthly Policy Fee: Current $10 Guaranteed Maximum $12 Monthly cost of insurance charge: The current monthly cost of insurance (COI) charge depends on several factors such as the Face Amount, class of risk, age, gender, duration, as well as the difference between the Policy Value and death benefit. The COI charges will vary each month. Please see the policy for details. Monthly Expense Charge: The Monthly Expense Charge is shown in the policy data pages. On a current basis, this charge applies for the first 8 policy years and 8 years from the date of any requested increase in Face Amount. On a guaranteed basis, this charge applies for eight years from issue or increase date for ages 0-60 and through age 120 for issue ages 61-85 for states other than Florida. In Florida, the guaranteed charge applies through age 120 for all issue ages. This charge varies by issue age, sex, band and tobacco use. This charge is also applied to any Additional Insured Rider for eight years from rider issue date and eight years from the date of any increase in rider Face Amount. Any change in the Monthly Expense Charge will be applied uniformly to all policies with the same Face Amount, age, sex and class of risk that have been in effect for the same length of time. Rider charges, if any. Flat extra or table substandard ratings, if any. We have the right to change current charges and cost of insurance rates. We may not charge more than the guaranteed maximum charges or rates. Any changes to charges or rates will be based on our expectations as to future cost factors. Such cost factors may include, but are not limited to, mortality, interest, persistency, expenses, reinsurance costs, and state and federal taxes. Surrender Charges The surrender charge is a charge for each $1,000 of the initial Face Amount and each increase in Face Amount. Surrender charges apply for the first 10 policy years and for ten years from the date of any Face Amount increase. This charge is subtracted from the Policy Value in determining the Cash Surrender Value available to the policy owner. Charges are based on the Face Amount band and the insured s issue age, gender and class of risk. These charges may be significant and should be carefully considered before surrendering the contract. The amount received upon full surrender is the Policy Value less any surrender charges, any policy loan outstanding and any interest due on policy loans.

Freedom Global IUL II SM Freedom Index Universal Life II SM Accidental Death Benefit Rider Issue ages: 15 55. The minimum rider Face Amount is $10,000 and the maximum is the lesser of $150,000 or 150% of the base Face Amount. This benefit pays the Face Amount of the rider if the insured s death results directly from an accidental bodily injury, independent from all other causes. The death must occur within 90 days of the accidental bodily injury and the injury must occur on or before the Policy Anniversary following the insured s 70th birthday. The rider will terminate on the Policy Anniversary after the insured attains age 70 or as specified in the rider. Terminal Illness Accelerated Death Benefit Rider*** This rider is issued automatically on each policy at no charge until the rider benefit is exercised. This rider allows the owner to access up to 100% of the total death benefit on the insured or $500,000, whichever is less, prior to death of a terminally ill insured. Income Protection Option Endorsement (IPO) The Income Protection Option (IPO) allows the policy owner to structure the death benefit using a combination of up to three payment options. This endorsement can provide one or more beneficiaries a guaranteed* monthly income stream over a period between 5 and 25 years. In addition to setting up monthly payments, there is also the option to select initial and/or final lump sum payments. The owner controls the amount of the payments, who receives them, and how long they are paid by the insurance company. This option is available at no additional cost. Guidelines for establishing the IPO benefit: n Minimum lump-sum benefit amount: $10,000 (if elected) n Minimum monthly guaranteed income stream duration: 5 years n Maximum monthly guaranteed income stream duration: 25 years n Minimum monthly benefit amount: $100 The beneficiary may not alter the payments once established. The Overloan Protection Rider (OPR) The Overloan Protection Rider (OPR) can keep a life insurance policy from lapsing while a loan is outstanding. If certain requirements are met and the policy owner chooses to exercise the option, the policy will become a paid up policy with a small death benefit. Keeping the policy in force prevents the loans from being taxable, and still provides some of the death benefit to beneficiaries. The OPR will automatically be included on all non-mec Freedom Index Universal Life II and Freedom Global IUL II policies using the Guideline Premium Test (GPT). * Eligibility for the Terminal Illness Accelerated Death Benefit is determined by a condition resulting from injury or illness which, as determined by a physician, has reduced life expectancy to not more than 12 months, not more than 24 months in TX, GA, IL, MA, and WA, from the date of the physician s statement. The policy s benefits and values will be reduced proportionally in accordance with the benefits advanced under this rider. Benefits paid under this rider are generally federal income tax-free but may be subject to taxation under some business related policies. Policyowners should consult their tax advisor. ** Any guarantees associated with the Income Protection Option endorsement are based on the claims paying ability of the insurance company. 16 Freedom Global IUL II SM Freedom Index Universal Life II SM Product Guide
Product Guide There is no charge for the OPR unless it is exercised. If the owner elects to exercise the OPR, a onetime charge will be assessed as a percentage of the Policy Value, based on the age of the insured (see chart below). Age Percentage 75-90 5% 91 4% 92 3% 93 2% 94-120 1% The election to exercise the OPR is irrevocable. Once the Rider Benefit has been exercised, all other riders attached to the policy will terminate and no further policy activity will be allowed. Also, no further loans will be allowed, but loan interest will continue to accrue. Repayment of interest or principal will be accepted. This is not a comprehensive description of the conditions that must be met, or the resulting effects of OPR election. Please see the rider form for complete details about the conditions and effects of the rider. Honeymoon Provision The Full Policy Surrender Penalty Waiver Endorsement (also known as the Honeymoon Provision or Honeymoon Endorsement) waives the TLIC imposed surrender charges for a full surrender of a policy during the first five policy years. Using this feature with the above referenced TLIC index universal life ( IUL ) policies may reduce premium finance collateral requirements by substituting policy values for cash surrender values for policy years 1 5. Surrender charges are still taken into consideration when determining maximum withdrawal or loan amounts, and for grace period processing. The Full Policy Surrender Penalty Waiver Endorsement is only available at issue on those TLIC IUL policies with a planned periodic premium of at least $100,000 each year for five years, which may be paid cumulatively in advance. This endorsement must be requested in the Additional Information Section 52 of the L114 1207 application. The use of this endorsement is subject to a tiered commission charge back schedule in the event the policy is cancelled, lapsed or fully surrendered during the first five policy years. Both the writing producer and the general agent will be required to sign a Honeymoon Provision Consent to Charge Back Commissions for Index Universal Life Insurance form (HPC0612T). The signed form must be submitted to New Business before the TLIC IUL policy will be issued with the Full Policy Surrender Penalty Waiver Endorsement. The commission chargeback schedule for TLIC IUL policies follows: Policy Year in Which IUL Policy Terminates: 1 2 3 4 5 6+ Percentage of Commission and Other Compensation Agreement to Repay: 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 0% t r a n s a m e r i c a 17
