Disclaimers for Nex Multi-Year Guaranteed Annuity Product (the “Nex MYGA”)

 

Nex MYGA annuities are issued by Ohio State Life and available in most states under contract form series ICC21 NA001_Rev, ICC21 NA001-APP_Rev, ICC21 NA001R1_Rev, ICC21 NA001R2_Rev, ICC21 NA001R3_Rev and state variations thereof. Rider benefits and rider form numbers may vary by state. The Nex MYGA is subject to state regulations, so the Nex MYGA and certain features or optional benefits may not be available in all states.

 

Each benefit is available only if respective rider is elected and subject to terms thereof. Market Value Adjustments (“MVA”) apply to any amount withdrawn or surrendered. Free Partial Withdrawal (“FPW”) Rider allows waiver of withdrawal charges and MVA on the first withdrawal in a policy year up to 10% of the Account Value (“AV”) as of the preceding policy anniversary. Death Benefit (“DB”) Feature Rider allows DB to equal AV with MVA and withdrawal charges waived. In FL, DB equals AV and, therefore, DB Rider is not applicable. Nursing Home Waiver of Withdrawal Charge Rider allows waiver of withdrawal charges if annuitant is confined to a nursing home for 90 days prior to request. Applications for annuitants ages 75 or older or for policies more than $250,000 may be referred for enhanced underwriting and suitability review and/or home office approval.

 

Withdrawal charges will be waived during the 30 days following the end of each guaranteed period. Withdrawal charges shown in the chart have been rounded to the nearest whole number percentages. Consult the policy contract for exact withdrawal charge rates.

 

Withdrawals of taxable amounts from an annuity are subject to ordinary income tax, and, if taken before age 59½, may be subject to a 10% IRS penalty. Any discussion or mention of taxes is for general informational purposes only, does not purport to be complete or cover every situation, and should not be construed as legal, investment, tax, or accounting advice.

 

Disclaimers for NexCompounder Fixed Index Annuity Product (the “NexCompounder FIA” or the “Product”)

 

NexCompounder FIA annuities are issued by Ohio State Life and available in most states under contract form series under form series ICC25 Nex FIA POL, ICC25 Nex FIA POL Sch, ICC25 Nex FIA APP, ICC25 Nex FIA PtP Part% End, ICC25 Nex FIA PtP CAP End and state variations thereof. Endorsements and endorsement form numbers may vary by state. The NexCompounder FIA is subject to state regulations, so the NexCompounder FIA and certain features or optional benefits thereof may not be available in all states.

 

Withdrawals of taxable amounts from an annuity are subject to ordinary income tax, and, if taken before age 59½, may be subject to a 10% IRS penalty. Any discussion or mention of taxes is for general informational purposes only, does not purport to be complete or cover every situation, and should not be construed as legal, investment, tax, or accounting advice.

  1. Collected on an aggregate, anonymous basis, which means no personal information is associated with this data.
  2. Gathered through the use of Web server logs and cookies. A Web server log is a file where website activity is stored. A cookie is a small piece of information that a website sends to a visitor’s computer, which is stored on his or her hard drive. NexAnnuity uses cookies to track repeat visits to its Website. Although NexAnnuity assigns a cookie to a visitor’s computer, the company does not know who that visitor is unless that person specifically tells us.
  3. Shared among NexAnnuity business units to improve website content and overall service.
  4. Used for purposes of direct marketing to visitors to our Website through social platforms.

 

To enable us to continually improve the content we offer our Website visitors, as well as for systems administration purposes, we collect aggregate information site-wide. This gives us an idea of which parts of our Website you are visiting. We do not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, which means a visitor’s session will be tracked, but the user will remain anonymous.

 

If NexAnnuity receives ‘do not track’ signals, we do not take any action to comply with such requests.

To protect your privacy, please do not use email to communicate information that you want kept confidential.

 

If you are concerned about the security of the Internet for the communication of personal information, you may consider using alternative forms of communication such as telephone, fax, or regular mail.

 

We do not guarantee or warrant that any part of this Website, including files available for download, are free of viruses or other harmful code. It is your responsibility to take appropriate precautions, such as the use of anti-virus software, to protect your computer hardware and software while using the Internet.

Our goal is to maintain accurate, up-to-date customer records in accordance with industry standards. We have procedures in place to keep information current and complete, including timely correction of inaccurate information.

 

Electronic Communication

Should customers send us questions and comments via email, we will share the customer’s correspondence only with those employees or agents most capable of addressing the customer’s questions and concerns.

 

We will retain all written communication until we have done our very best to provide the customer with a complete and satisfactory response. Ultimately, we will either discard the communication or archive it according to the requirements under applicable laws.

 

Please note that, unless expressly advised otherwise, our email facilities do not provide a means for completely secure and private communications between us and our customers. Although every attempt will be made to keep customer information confidential, from a technical standpoint, there is still a risk. If the customer wishes, communications with us may be conducted via telephone or by facsimile. Additional security is available to customers if they equip their Internet browser with 128-bit “secure socket layer “ encryption, which provides more secure transmissions.

Disclosure of Our Privacy Policy

We recognize and respect the privacy concerns of our potential, current and former customers. We are committed to safeguarding this information. As a member of the financial services industry, we are providing this Customer Privacy Policy for informational purposes to customers as required by law.
