* Index Credits indicate performance that would have been realized based on current caps and participation rates of the XL products. The Index Credits assume a single premium deposit and an ending date of the Index Period for only the Month Ending date noted above. The actual Index Credits for a policy can fluctuate widely depending on the deposit date of the premium and the number of deposits made into the policy (e.g. monthly premium deposits). Any change in either the caps or participation rates would result in different values than those shown for the Index Credits.

** The Optimal Strategy is an Annual Point to Point crediting method which uses a combination of three separate indices: S&P 500, Russell 2000 and Dow Jones EURO STOXX 50. It takes 50% of the best performing index, 30% of the 2nd best performing index, and 20% of the third best performing index to determine the index growth. The combined growth is then subject to a current cap rate to derive the index credit.
