I move that each of the interest rate motions just described and appearing before each Director, be approved. 1) I move that the Company pay interest at the rate of .25% (or such higher rate as may be required by law) per annum during 2025 on policy proceeds for individual ordinary life policies payable as matured endowments or as death claims, a) from the date of maturity or date of death to the Date of Settlement, where the date of maturity or death and the Date of Settlement shall all occur during 2025, and b) from January 1, 2025, where the date of maturity or date of death occurred in a prior year, to the Date of Settlement if it shall occur in 2025, or to December 31, 2025, if the Date of Settlement does not occur in 2025. 2) Date of Settlement means date of payment in accordance with the terms of the policy; or date of payment in accordance with the terms of settlement of disputes; or date of request by the rightful payee to delay payment to accommodate such payee; or date when the proceeds are reasonably determined and recorded by H&L to be unclaimed. I move that the Company pay interest on dividends from individual ordinary life policies left to accumulate with the Company, from the individual policy anniversary in 2025 to the earlier of (1) the policy anniversary in 2026, or (2) the date such dividend accumulations are withdrawn, at the higher of a) the minimum interest rate per annum required in the policy, or b) 1.25% per annum. I move that, with respect to individual ordinary life policies, the Company pay interest on Premium Deposit Funds during 2025 at the higher of a) the minimum interest rate per annum required in the policy, or b) 0.25% per annum. I move that, on all settlement options presently identified as Installments of a Set Amount (usually called Option 3) and Proceeds Left at Interest with Right to Withdraw Deposit (usually called Option 4), in the Company's individual ordinary policies, interest for 2025 on the undistributed balances accrue at the higher rate of a) the minimum interest rate required in the policy or b) the minimum interest rate required in the policy plus excess interest, if any, necessary to raise the total interest rate to 0.25%. I move that 1) With respect to any settlement options contained in individual ordinary policies that have been in force for at least two years, with no life contingencies involved and which guarantee installments for a fixed period certain (usually called Option 1), becoming first payable during 2025, an income dividend is declared equal to the excess, if any, of (b) over (a) where (a) Is the monthly installment payment calculated according to the applicable policy settlement provision and (b) Is the monthly installment payment calculated by assuming an effective interest rate of .75% for the first 20 years and .50% thereafter; and 2) Rules and regulations, if any, necessary to put this method into practical operation may be adopted by the Vice President and General Counsel and the Senior Vice President and Chief Actuary, acting jointly.
