1. The Benefit Rider includes a rider charge of 1.20% of Benefit Base, deducted as a partial surrender from the Accumulation Value. Alternative death benefit options are available. Lifetime income refers to guaranteed payment of Lifetime Payment Amounts (LPA's) as defined in the Benefits Rider included in this contract. It does not refer to interest credited to the contract. Advise clients to consult with their own tax advisor regarding tax treatment of LPAs, which will vary according to individual circumstances. The Nursing Home Multiplier can be paid out for a maximum of five annual payments as long as the client continues to meet the requirements on each payment date. See the product brochure for further details and limitations. Rider death benefit includes option for 5 annual payments based on benefit base with 1-year waiting period (2-year in some states). Rider death benefit options vary by state. Additional death benefit and other features are explained in the product brochure and disclosure. For product materials, check for variations in your state.
2. This amount is only applied to the Benefit Base, which is a value used only for determining Lifetime Payment Amounts (LPA) and/or the rider death benefit features. Benefit Base is not the same as the Contract Accumulation Value and may not be used for partial withdrawals, full surrender or as the base contract death benefit.
3. Provided you are at least age 50 at issue, Lifetime Payment Amounts (LPAs) are available in the first contract year.
Fixed index annuities are not a direct investment in the stock market. They are long term insurance products with guarantees backed by the issuing company. They provide the potential for interest to be credited based in part on the performance of specific indices, without the risk of loss of premium due to market downturns or fluctuation. Although fixed index annuities guarantee no loss of premium due to market downturns, deductions from the accumulation value for optional benefit riders or strategy fees or charges associated with allocations to enhanced crediting methods could exceed interest credited to the accumulation value, which would result in loss of premium. They may not be appropriate for all clients. Interest credits to a fixed index annuity will not mirror the actual performance of the relevant index.
The term financial professional is not intended to imply engagement in an advisory business in which compensation is not related to sales. Financial professionals that are insurance licensed will be paid a commission on the sale of an insurance product.
The indexes are managed to a volatility target and as a result, the index performance will not match the performance of any other index or the markets in general since volatility control tends to reduce both the rate of negative performance and the positive performance of the underlying index, thereby creating more stabilized performance.
Each of North American’s crediting methods and available indexes performs differently in various market scenarios. There is not one particular method or index that performs better than the other methods and indexes when observed in all market scenarios.

Special notice regarding the use of a living trust as owner or beneficiary of this annuity.
The use of living trusts in connection with an annuity contract can be a valuable planning mechanism. However, a living trust is not appropriate when mass-produced in connection with the sale of an insurance product. We strongly suggest you seek the advice of your qualified legal advisor concerning the use of a trust with an annuity contract.
Neither North American, nor any financial professionals acting on its behalf, should be viewed as providing legal, tax or investment advice. Consult with and rely on a qualified advisor. Under current law, annuities grow tax deferred. Annuities may be subject to taxation during the income or withdrawal phase. The tax-deferred feature is not necessary for a tax-qualified plan. In such instances, you should consider whether other features, such as the Death Benefit, lifetime annuity payments, and any other features make the Contract appropriate for your needs.
Withdrawals taken prior to age 59½ may be subject to IRS penalties.

In calculating the performance of the index, Morgan Stanley deducts, on a daily basis, a servicing cost of 0.50% per annum. This reduces the positive change or increase the negative change in the index level and thus decreases the return of any product linked to the index. The volatility control calculation applied by Morgan Stanley as part of the index’s methodology may decrease the index’s performance and thus the return of any product linked to the index. In addition, because the volatility control calculation is expected to reduce the overall volatility of the index, it will also reduce the cost of hedging certain products linked to the index.
