Not available for Bronze Plans or any plan in ND. Terms and conditions apply. Bronze/Bronze II policies provide a reduced
benefit for deaths due to natural causes in the first two years - total of premiums paid plus 10%. Full death benefits are paid
beginning with third year of coverage. Full death benefit paid in first two years for deaths due to an accident, as defined in the
policy. 2
Accelerated Death Benefit Rider is added to all Gold, Silver, and Silver II policies with face amounts of $5,000 or more at
no additional cost. Rider allows you to apply for up to 75% of current policy death benefit if (i) you are diagnosed by a physician
with a terminal condition with a life expectancy of six months or less; OR (ii) as requiring Continuous Confinement in an Eligible
Nursing Home with the expectation that you will remain there until death. If the policy funds are payable through this rider,
the benefits paid under this rider may be taxable. Receipt of these funds may also affect the eligibility for Medicaid and other
government benefits. 2014 Policy Series WLP2300 and IMWLP300

We think life insurance should be more
than a piece of paper and a promise.

The Government
If you qualify, your loved ones will receive
$255 from Social Security to bury you.*
Your Kids/Grandkids
Is it fair to burden them financially with
your burial expenses?
You
Make certain you’re in charge of your life
and your death.
You may be healthy. Perhaps, you’ve had an illness. Maybe
you’ve even handled the funeral arrangements for a loved one.

Additional fees for cemetery, monument, flowers, &
obituaries can increase this cost to nearly $10,300²
Considering the average costs over the past 40 years and
projecting out at 5% inflation per year, by 2030 the cost
would be $18,276³
Few people have the resources to pay for an entire funeral.
Your survivors may have to depend on their own savings,
credit cards, or even loans to cover the costs.
Families can make up to
decisions in the first hours after
death. Usually, these decisions
are made under great pressure and
sadness.
