Guaranteed Surrender Value:


The policy may be surrendered after it has been in force for 2 years or more but
before the vesting date. The guaranteed surrender value is 90% of the basic
premiums paid excluding the first years premium. In case of a single premium
policy the guaranteed surrender value is allowed after 2 years from the date of
commencement of the policy.

Corporations policy on surrenders:


In practice, the company will pay a Special Surrender Value which is equal to or
higher than the Guaranteed Surrender Value. The benefit payable on surrender
reflects the discounted value of the reduced claim amount that would be payable on
death or at maturity. This value will depend on the duration for which premiums
have been paid and the policy duration at the date of surrender. In some
circumstances, in case of early termination of the policy, the surrender value
payable may be less than the total premium paid.

The Corporation reviews the surrender value payable under its plans from time to
time depending on the economic environment, experience and other factors.
