Important Information (continued)Long term care insurance underwritten by

Genworth Life Insurance Company

Genworth Life Insurance Company of New York Administrative Office: Richmond, VA

The Genworth Financial companies wrote this to help you understand the ideas discussed. Examples are hypothetical and used only to help you understand the ideas. They may not reflect your client's particular circumstances. For full information about products' features, benefits and limitations read the policy.

Covered long term care expenses may be paid for a longer or shorter period than the Benefit Period. Expenses may be paid for a longer period if the actual expenses paid are less than the Monthly Maximum. Expenses may be paid for a shorter period because some services, such as supportive equipment, caregiver training and bed reservation do not count toward the Monthly Maximum.

Gain accumulates tax-deferred until it is withdrawn. The taxable amount withdrawn from life insurance policies is subject to ordinary income tax.

A TLC policy may be treated as a Modified Endowment Contract (MEC). In that event, partial withdrawals (including loans which are treated as withdrawals) will be taxable to the extent of gain in the policy.

The taxable amount of MEC withdrawals and surrenders taken before age 59 1/2 will be subject to an additional 10% penalty tax, unless another exception applies.

Partial withdrawals from life insurance policies that are not treated as MECs are not taxable until the amount withdrawn exceeds the policy cost basis. A 10% penalty tax does not apply.

Important Information (continued)Because TLC rider charges reduce cost basis (not below zero) it is possible for return of premium (ROP) rider benefits to be taxable.

Monthly charges to pay for long term care insurance are not included in the gross income of the owner, but reduce the owner’s income tax basis (not below zero). No income tax deduction is available for these monthly charges.
