10. ELECTRONIC DELIVERY AUTHORIZATION (continued) The computer hardware and software requirements that are necessary to receive, process and retain electronic communications that are subject to this consent are as follows: To view and download material electronically, you must have a computer with Internet access, an active e-mail account and Adobe Acrobat Reader. If you don’t already have Adobe Acrobat Reader, you can download it free from www.adobe.com. 11. AGREEMENTS AND SIGNATURES The Owner agrees that all statements and answers to questions on this application are true to the best of my knowledge and belief. All states: Any person who knowingly presents a false statement in an application for insurance may be guilty of a criminal offense and subject to penalties under state law. IL Residents: The Illinois legislature created the Religious Freedom Protection and Civil Union Act (“The Act”) effective June 1, 2011. The Act creates a legal relationship between two persons of the same or opposite sex who form a civil union and the parties to a civil union are entitled to the same legal obligations, responsibilities, protections and benefits that are afforded or recognized by the laws of Illinois to spouses. This policy and the administration of it comply with the Act. However, federal regulations state that civil union partners are not considered lawfully married for federal tax purposes. Therefore, the favorable tax treatment provided by federal tax law to a surviving spouse is NOT available to a surviving civil union partner. I have received a copy of the prospectus. IRS CERTIFICATION Under penalties of perjury, I certify that: 1. The Social Security Number or Taxpayer Identification Number shown on this form is correct (or I am waiting for a number to be issued to me), and 2. I am not subject to backup withholding because: (a) I am exempt from backup withholding, or (b) I have not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) that I am subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest or dividends, or (c) the IRS has notified me that I am no longer subject to backup withholding, and 3. I am a U.S. citizen or other U.S. person (as defined in the General Instructions of IRS Form W-9), and 4. The FATCA code(s) entered on this form (if any) indicating that I am exempt from FATCA reporting is correct. Exemption from FATCA reporting code (if any):______. (FATCA reporting codes can be found in the General Instructions on IRS Form W-9.) If you are only submitting this form for an account you hold in the United States, you may leave this field blank. Certification Instructions: You must cross out item 2 above if you have been notified by the IRS that you are currently subject to backup withholding because you have failed to report all interest and dividends on your tax return. The Internal Revenue Service does not require your consent to any provisions of this document other than the certifications required to avoid backup withholding.
