The Credit Suisse Balanced Trend 5% index and “Credit Suisse”, and any trademarks, service marks and logos related thereto are service marks of Credit Suisse Group AG, Credit Suisse International, or one of their affiliates (collectively, “Credit Suisse”). Credit Suisse has no relationship to National Life Insurance Company (“NLIC”), other than the licensing of the Credit Suisse Balanced Trend 5% index and its service marks for use in connection with the FlexLife or PeakLife Indexed Universal Life Insurance Policies and is not a party to any transaction contemplated hereby.
The rules of the Credit Suisse Balanced Trend 5% index may be amended by Credit Suisse International (the “Index Creator”). An amendment to the rules may result from, without limitation, a change to the construction or calculation rules for the Index or from the Index Creator determining that a change to the rules is required or desirable in order to update them or to address an error, omission or ambiguity. No assurance can be given that any such amendment would not affect parties to this document.
The Index is an excess return index, which means that it reflects the return of components net of the cost of funding a hypothetical investment in them. The Index returns are likely to be negatively affected by such costs of funding. The Index has a 0.5% per annum embedded fee deducted on a daily basis. The index fee will place a drag on the performance of the Index, offsetting any appreciation of its portfolio, exacerbating any depreciation of its portfolio and causing the level of the Index to decline steadily if the value of its portfolio remains relatively constant.
The end-of-day value of the Credit Suisse Balanced Trend 5% index is published subject to the provisions in the rules of the Index. Neither the Index Creator nor any of its affiliates is obliged to publish any information regarding the index other than as stipulated in the rules of these indices.
The FlexLife and PeakLife Indexed Universal Life Insurance Policies are not in any way sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by Credit Suisse and Credit Suisse does not make any warranty or representation whatsoever, expressly or impliedly, either as to the results to be obtained from the use of the Credit Suisse Balanced Trend 5% index ("the Index"), the figure at which the said Index stands at any particular time on any particular day or otherwise, or the advisability of or results to be obtained by using, investing in, or trading the FlexLife or PeakLife Indexed Universal Life Insurance Policies. The selection of the Index as a crediting option under the FlexLife or PeakLife Indexed Universal Life Insurance Policies does not obligate NLIC or Credit Suisse to invest premium payments in the components of the Index or in other products linked to the Index. Credit Suisse shall not be liable for the results obtained by using, investing in, or trading the FlexLife or PeakLife Indexed Universal Life Insurance Policies. The Index is compiled, maintained and calculated by Credit Suisse. However, Credit Suisse shall not be liable (whether in negligence or otherwise) to any person for any error in the Index and Credit Suisse shall not be under any obligation to advise any person of any error therein.
