Since you can never predict the future, it’s comforting to have the ability to access your money when needed most. If you surrender or withdrawal funds from your annuity before the end of the seventh contract year, surrender/withdrawal charges will not be applied in the following cases:

  • All interest earned on your initial premium deposit, only in the first contract year, may be withdrawn immediately
  • 10% Free Withdrawal Provision after the first contract year
  • Waiver of Surrender/Withdrawal Charges for 3:
    • Home Health Care Benefit
    • Terminal Illness Benefit
    • Nursing Home Benefit

Notes:

1 Interest rates are guaranteed for the first contract year. After the first contract year, Oxford Life will declare new interest rates each year thereafter; however, the interest rates are guaranteed never to fall below 1%. All guarantees made are that of Oxford Life Insurance Company®.
2 The minimum premium amount to get started is $5,000 (non-qualified) and $2,000 (qualified). Additional premiums of $100 or more are accepted. The sum of all premiums may not exceed $250,000 without prior company approval.
3 Withdrawals of earnings will be subject to income tax and may be subject to a 10% IRS penalty tax, if taken prior to age 59 ½. It is important to evaluate whether an annuity is appropriate for you. Consider your age, income, net worth, tax status, financial objectives, liquidity needs, time horizon, risk tolerance and other relevant information.
