When your 10-Year and/or 20-Year level term period comes to an end you have the opportunity to lock-in another multi-year rate guarantee at the Plan's lowest possible rate based on your gender, attained age, health and tobacco/nicotine use. To accomplish this you will complete an application and provide medical evidence of your current health. If you are then declined for coverage or simply failed to complete the requirements for a new guarantee period you may continue your coverage to age 75 by paying the group policy's Non-Guaranteed rates. The Non-Guaranteed rates, which do not differ for the 10LTL and 20LTL Plans increase as you age into the next age bracket.
