[4] Up to Age 90 No-Lapse Guarantee Rider (Form series R22NLG, S22NLG, varies based on state of policy issue) is issued with all policies electing Death Benefit Option A or B with insured's issue age 79 and under. Paying only the Up to Age 90 No-Lapse Premiums will guarantee the death benefit up to the insured's attained age 90 but will not guarantee cash value accumulation. If your client discontinues paying the no-lapse guarantee premiums, the no-lapse feature will terminate before the guaranteed duration. If this occurs, additional premiums in an amount equal to the shortfall can be paid to bring the no-lapse feature back in force. If policy loans or withdrawals are taken, additional premiums may be required to keep the no-lapse feature in force. Additional premiums may be required to continue the policy beyond the guaranteed duration. [5] The indexed accounts do not directly participate in any index or the stock market. [6] The Flexible Duration No-Lapse Guarantee Rider (Form series R25FNL, S25FNL, varies based on state of policy issue). Depending on how your client structures their policy, this rider has a maximum duration of the insured's lifetime, subject to certain limits. If your client's 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 client's policy is being maintained solely by the no-lapse guarantee, your client's policy will not build cash value. Please note: When this rider is elected, Pacific Life limits the investment options available. See the technical guide, prospectus, or illustration for details.
