1 Top marginal income tax bracket, irs.gov, Jan. 2013. 2 According to the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, the federal estate, gift and generation skipping transfer (GST) tax exemption amounts are all $5,000,000 (indexed for inflation effective for tax years after 2011); the maximum estate, gift and GST tax rates are 40%. 3 For federal income tax purposes, life insurance death benefits generally pay income tax-free to beneficiaries pursuant to IRC Section 101(a)(1). In certain situations, however, life insurance death benefits may be partially or wholly taxable. Situations include, but are not limited to: the transfer of a life insurance policy for valuable consideration unless the transfer qualifies for an exception under IRC Section 101(a)(2) (i.e. the “transfer-for-value rule”); arrangements that lack an insurable interest based on state law; and an employer-owned policy unless the policy qualifies for an exception under IRC Section 101(j). 4 Tax-free income assumes, among other things: (1) withdrawals do not exceed tax basis (generally, premiums paid less prior withdrawals); (2) policy remains in force until death; (3) withdrawals taken during the first 15 policy years do not occur at the time of, or during the two years prior to, any reduction in benefits; and (4) the policy does not become a modified endowment contract. See IRC Sections 72, 7702(f)(7)(B), 7702A. Any policy withdrawals, loans and loan interest will reduce policy values and may reduce benefits. 5 Policy Form #P10P1N.

Guarantee Your Death Benefit for the Duration You Choose
We understand that you have better things to worry about than your life insurance policy. That’s why Pacific PRIME UL-NLG features a guarantee to help keep your policy in-force even if your policy’s cash value drops to zero. Without this guarantee, as long as your policy has enough cash value to pay monthly policy charges, your policy would stay in force. But if policy charges increased or crediting rates decreased beyond expectations, you may have to pay more in premiums than you planned to keep your policy in place.
To provide the security of guaranteed coverage at predictable premiums, the Flexible Duration No-Lapse Guarantee III Rider (Form #R03FNL)9 guarantees that your policy will stay in force for the duration you choose, no matter how your policy performs.10 Choose your no-lapse guarantee duration and pay your premiums as planned.11 It’s that easy.
The hypothetical chart to the right illustrates that longer no-lapse guarantee periods will require higher premiums.
9 Riders will likely incur additional charges and are subject to availability, restrictions, and limitations. When considering a rider, request a policy illustration from your life insurance producer to see the rider’s impact on your policy’s values. 10 The no-lapse guarantee is based on the net no-lapse guarantee value being greater than zero.The net no-lapse guarantee value is a policy calculation that mirrors the growth of your policy’s cash value, but grows at a different interest rate and is reduced by different charges than your policy’s cash value. It cannot be accessed through withdrawals or policy loans and is merely a calculation to determine whether your no-lapse guarantee is in effect. 11 If the policy is being maintained solely by the no-lapse guarantee, you will be foregoing the advantage of building cash value. A policy will enter a grace period if both the cash value and no-lapse guarantee value (net of loans) reach zero and if no further (or insufficient) premium payments are made.To keep the policy from entering the grace period and eventually lapsing, an additional amount, representing the lesser of uncollected monthly deductions with interest, or the amount required to bring the net no-lapse guarantee value to a positive value, must be paid. 12 The Flexible Duration No-Lapse guarantee, depending on how you structure your policy, has a maximum duration of the insured’s lifetime, subject to certain limits. If your net no-lapse guarantee value is zero, the no-lapse feature terminates. If the no-lapse feature terminates, additional premiums would be required to resume the no-lapse guarantee. If policy performance is such that your policy is being maintained solely by the no-lapse guarantee, your policy will not build cash value

e Accelerated Living Benefit Rider (Form #R06ALB)15,16,17 — If the primary insured is diagnosed as terminally ill (12 months or fewer to live), a portion of the tax-free death benefit13 will be available for the policyowner to use for any reason. e Accidental Death Benefit Rider (Form #R84-AD) — Provides an additional death benefit to the policy’s beneficiaries if the primary insured dies due to an accident.
e Waiver of Charges (Form #R84-WC) — Helps keep coverage in place by waiving all policy charges if the primary insured is diagnosed with a total disability prior to age 60. Benefit takes effect after a three-month qualifying period. e Owner Waiver of Charges (Form #R84-OWC) — Waives policy charges if the policyowner (who is not the primary insured) becomes totally disabled before age 60.
13 For federal income tax purposes, life insurance death benefits generally pay income tax-free to beneficiaries pursuant to IRC Sec. 101(a)(1). In certain situations, however, life insurance death benefits may be partially or wholly taxable. Situations include, but are not limited to: the transfer of a life insurance policy for valuable consideration unless the transfer qualifies for an exception under IRC Sec. 101(a)(2)(i.e. the transfer-for-value rule); arrangements that lack an insurable interest based on state law; and an employer-owned policy unless the policy qualifies for an exception under IRC Sec. 101(j). 14 Riders will likely incur additional charges and are subject to availability, restrictions and limitations.When considering a rider, request a policy illustration from your life insurance producer to see the rider’s impact on your policy’s values. 15 Some states may require a diagnosis of terminally ill with 24 months or fewer to live. 16 The cost of exercising the rider is that the death benefit is reduced by an amount greater than the rider benefit payment itself to reflect the early payment of the death benefit. Rider benefit payments will reduce the death benefit, cash surrender value, and any policy debt. Additionally, rider benefit payments may adversely affect the benefits under other riders. 17 Benefits paid by accelerating the policy’s death benefit may or may not qualify for favorable tax treatment under Section 101(g) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.Tax treatment of an accelerated death benefit may depend on factors such as life expectancy at the time benefits are accelerated, the amount of benefits, the amount of qualified expenses incurred, or if similar benefits are being received under other contracts.Tax laws relating to accelerated death benefits are complex. Receipt of accelerated death benefits may affect eligibility for public assistance programs such as Medicaid. Clients are advised to consult with qualified and independent legal and tax advisors for more information.

Product Guarantees & Charges
Flexible Duration No-Lapse Guarantee12 Provided through the Flexible Duration No-Lapse Guarantee III Rider (Form #R03FNL), your policy’s no-lapse guarantee will be in effect for the duration of your choosing as long as the policy’s net no-lapse guarantee value is greater than zero. The net no-lapse guarantee value grows at a different interest rate and is reduced by different charges than your policy’s cash value. You may take withdrawals and loans from your policy’s cash value, but doing so may reduce or negate your no-lapse guarantee. If you plan on taking withdrawals or loans from your policy, you should request illustrations from your life insurance producer to understand the potential impact. Interest Rate Guarantee Your policy’s cash value will be credited with a current rate that Pacific Life guarantees for the first policy year. The current rate may change periodically, but is guaranteed to never be less than 3.00%. Additionally, in policy year 21 and afterward, Pacific Life currently credits an additional 0.60% to the current crediting rate, though this is not a policy guarantee.
Policy charges will reduce the policy’s accumulated cash value. Please refer to your policy for more detailed information. e Premium Load — This charge is assessed on each premium payment we receive from you. Maximum of 6.95%. (Current premium load: 5.95%.) e Administrative Charge — $7.50/month through insured’s age 120. e Coverage Charge — Monthly charge for first 10 policy years on a current basis, through age 120 on a guaranteed basis, for administration and maintenance of the policy. Rate varies based on issue age, gender, risk class, and Death Benefit Option. e Cost of Insurance Charge (COI) — A rate per $1,000 multiplied by the Net Amount at Risk (difference between your policy’s death benefit and its cash value). This charge is deducted monthly through age 120. e Surrender Charge — An amount deducted from the cash value if the policy is surrendered within the first 10 policy years. e No-Lapse Guarantee Charge — An amount deducted monthly from the cash value and based on the policy’s cash value and Net Amount at Risk.
