Optional rider benefit available with the Extended Disability Income benefit (term and whole-life version) Pre-retirement Impairment Income With this rider benefit income claims can be admitted on the basis of permanent functional impairment, regardless of the ability to work. The rider benefit will pay a percentage (up to 100%) of the cover amount, based on the severity of the impairment. Automatic waiver of payment is included. Waiting period No waiting period applies to this rider benefit. This means that even though the rider benefit is added to the Extended Disability Income benefit with a 24- month waiting period, the income payment will start as soon as permanent functional impairment has been established. Claims If a claim qualifies under both the main benefit and this rider benefit, only the claim event resulting in the largest pay-out will be admitted. For impairments in multiple body systems, payout percentages can be added together, up to a maximum of 100%. Once a claim has been admitted, it will be paid until the cease age of the benefit to which this rider benefit is linked or until 70 anb if it is linked to the whole-life version of the benefit.
