1 in 2 of us will be diagnosed
        with cancer during our lifetime.2

          Approximately                 60%
                                  of the total cost of cancer
              is non-medical; therefore, not paid for by
                     major medical insurance.3

                   35% of the overall costs of strokes are
             indirect costs, and consequently, not paid for by
                        major medical insurance.4

    How will you pay for these extra expenses?
                         • Spend your savings • Sell your assets
                              • Borrow from your retirement

                                              LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS
  PLEASE SEE YOUR INSURANCE CONTRACT FOR SPECIFIC DETAILS. THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS
            LISTED BELOW ARE TYPICAL, BUT YOUR STATE MAY HAVE SLIGHT DIFFERENCES.
Waiting Period: The policy/rider(s) has a 30 day waiting period before benefits will be paid, except the Screening Benefit has a 90 day waiting
period. The waiting period begins on the policy/rider(s) effective date. Cancer, Heart Attack or Stroke will not be a covered condition when advice
or treatment is received prior to the policy’s effective date or within the waiting period, or tissue is extracted prior to the policy’s effective date or
within the waiting period, and such advice, treatment, or tissue extraction results in the First Diagnosis of Cancer, Heart Attack or Stroke. In Arkan-
sas, Tennessee and Wyoming, the Screening Benefit Rider has a 30-day waiting period. A waiting period does not apply in Missouri.
Cancer, Heart Attack or Stroke Coverage: This policy/rider does not pay benefits for any loss due to: injury, disease, sickness, or incapacity not
directly related or attributable to Cancer, Heart Attack or Stroke; care received outside the U.S.; experimental drugs or substances not approved
by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration for the treatment of Cancer, Heart Attack or Stroke; experimental procedures or treatment methods not
endorsed by the American Medical Association or any other appropriate Medical Society except as provided for in the Experimental Treatment
Benefit of the policy; courses of treatment available without a doctor’s prescription; or services received from a member of your immediate family.
The Screening benefit excludes the following tests that are performed in a routine or annual physical examination: (1) an oral cancer examination
performed by a dentist, orthodontist, or similar oral care professional; (2) testicular or prostate physical examination; (3) blood pressure; and (4)
lipid panel. Cancer does not include pre-malignant tumors or polyps; intraductal noninvasive carcinoma of the breasts; or carcinoid of the ap-
pendix. Benefits for non-malignant skin cancer are covered under the Cancer Surgical Procedure Benefit. Heart Attack does not include any other
disease or injury involving the cardiovascular system. Cardiac arrest not caused by a myocardial infarction is not a Heart Attack. Stroke does not
mean a head injury, transient ischemic attack or chronic cerebrovascular insufficiency.
Lump Sum Benefits: This rider does not pay benefits for non-malignant skin cancer (benefits for non-malignant skin cancer are covered under the
Cancer Surgical Procedures benefit). It also does not pay benefits for coronary angioplasty or coronary bypass when performed as a direct result
of a heart attack (benefits for coronary angioplasty/coronary bypass would then be paid under the Surgical Procedures Benefit, and heart attack
benefits would be payable under the Lump Sum Benefit.) Benefits for coronary angioplasty or coronary bypass performed without evidence of a
heart attack would be payable under this Lump Sum Benefit.
Intensive Care Benefit: The Intensive Care rider will pay benefits for any sickness or injury, except: intentionally self-inflicted Injury, violating or
attempting to violate any duly enacted law; injury by acts of war, whether declared or not; attempted suicide while sane or insane (This exclusion
does not apply in IL); injury sustained while committing or attempting to commit a felony; injury sustained while voluntarily participating in a riot,
or civil commotion or disturbance of any kind; loss resulting from being legally intoxicated or under the influence of alcohol as defined by the
laws of the state in which the Injury occurs; or loss resulting from being under the influence of any drugs or narcotic unless administered on the
advice of a Doctor.
Duplication of Benefits: Where there is an overlap in coverage between: (i) the hospital confinement benefit and the intensive care benefit; or (ii)
the diagnostic testing benefit and surgical procedures benefit, the higher of the two applicable benefit amounts will be paid.
