Preserve Multi-Year Guaranteed Annuity 5

The Preserve Multi-Year Guaranteed Annuity 5 is a deferred multi-year guarantee annuity issued by Clear Spring Life & Annuity Company.

This annuity is a premium banded product. The interest rate you earn will vary depending on the amount of premium you deposit (see Rate Details below). Currently, the highest 5 year guarantee period annual yield is 3.90% on premium amounts of $250,000 – $1,000,000.  This is the guaranteed annual yield, including bonuses if applicable, for the initial guarantee period term, up to the first penalty free full withdrawal window. The Preserve Multi-Year Guaranteed Annuity 5 has a full penalty free withdrawal window after 5 years.

During the time in which the annuity is subject to surrender penalties, there are policy provisions that allow partial access on a penalty free basis. In the first contract year, this annuity provides interest only withdrawals. Beginning in the second contract year, up to 10% (noncumulative) of the contract value may be withdrawn from the annuity each contract year without penalty.

This annuity also waives withdrawal penalties upon death. Your named beneficiary(ies) will receive a death benefit equal to the full accumulation value. A beneficiary may choose to receive their death benefit in either a lump sum or select an available annuitization option.

Details on additional penalty waivers can be found in the Penalty Free Withdrawal Provisions section below.
