17. Contingent Policy Owner refers to the person appointed by the Policy Owner in the application to us or on our designated form and is approved by us. Please refer to policy provisions for details about the Contingent Policy Owner.

 

18. Total Premiums Paid refers to the total amount of premium(s) due and paid for the basic plan of the Policy. If a request of partial surrender has been approved, the Total Premiums Paid will correspondingly be reduced on a pro rata basis by the ratio of the reduced sum insured after partial surrender to the sum insured specified in the policy specifications when the basic plan of the Policy became effective.

 

19. The Benefit is only applicable to the child who is born at or after 37 weeks of gestation and confined in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) within 28 days after live birth. We will pay 0.1% of the sum insured or USD250(whichever is lower) per day of Confinement. If there is more than one policy with the provisions of Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Cash Benefit issued on the life of the same Insured, the aggregate claim amount of Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Cash Benefit paid or payable for each day of Confinement under all such policies of the Insured will be limited to USD250 per day. The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Cash Benefit shall not cover any Confinement in an NICU in the People's Republic of China (except Hong Kong and Macau Special Administrative Regions), unless the Insured is confined in the NICU of a Hospital of Grade 3A as classified by the government of the People's Republic of China or in a Hospital which is on the list of approved hospitals as determined by us from time to time (applicable to non-Hong Kong residents only).

 

20. Terminal Dividend is not guaranteed and will only be payable after the Policy has been in force for a minimum number of Policy Years specified. The Company will take into account the total amount of Living Benefit paid or payable and net of the excess, if any, of such total amount of Living Benefit payment over the Guaranteed Cash Value of the Policy (if any) when determining the amount of the Terminal Dividend. Newly announced Terminal Dividend is influenced by a number of factors, including but not limited to investment returns and market fluctuations, and the amount may be higher or lower than the amount previously announced. Terminal Dividend will be paid upon the earliest occurrence of the following circumstances: (i) death of the Insured; or (ii) the Living Benefit for Severity Level 3 Critical Illness is paid or payable; or (iii) Policy surrender; or (iv) the exercise of the Terminal Dividend Lock in Option; or (v) Policy Maturity (at the Policy Anniversary at which the Insured attains age 100 or 99 (applicable to Pregnancy Baby Protection)). We will pay the Terminal Dividend of the basic plan of the Policy in accordance with the Policy Provisions after deduction of any Indebtedness.

 

21.  Assuming the Insured is a 35-year-old non-smoking female, applied the policy with a 25-year premium payment period and a sum insured of USD62,500, without any indebtedness, paid or payable Living Benefits, or any surrenders. The Guaranteed Cash Value of the Policy equals or exceeds the Total Premiums Paid on the 25th policy anniversary for the first time, achieving the guaranteed breakeven.

 

22. You may exercise the Terminal Dividend Lock-In Option by submitting a written request within 60 days before or after a Policy Anniversary. Only one transfer will be made for each written request. Once approved, your request to transfer Terminal Dividend to locked-in dividend is irrevocable. As the actual amount of transferred Terminal Dividend from the transfer will be determined after the approval of the application, the amount could be lower or higher than that at the application submission. After the transfer of Terminal Dividend, your future Terminal Dividend will be reduced accordingly. Any Terminal Dividend that has not been transferred can be increased or decreased, or even be reduced to zero. While the Policy is in force, you may request for a withdrawal of any accumulated values of the locked-in dividend by filing with us a written request. The value of the locked-in dividend will be accumulated at such interest rate declared by us from time to time. Interest rates on the locked-in dividend are not guaranteed and may even be 0% in any year. Please refer to the Policy Provisions for more details about Terminal Dividend Lock in Option.

 

23. The premium prepayment option is only applicable to policies with a 10-year premium payment period and an annual premium payment mode. Prepaid premium will be credited to your premium deposit account and accumulate at the then prevailing interest rate offered (the current interest rate offered is 2% per annum, but is not guaranteed). If the amount in the premium deposit account is not sufficient to pay the premium, the Policy Owner is required to make up the difference.

Surrender Benefit /Maturity Benefit will not be applicable after the payment of first Living Benefit for Severity Level 3 Critical Illness.
