issued,

� in the event you fail to cancel your Existing Insurance Cover, any benefit in relation to the

you. Please wait for us to confirm you're insured before you cancel any other existing insurance

arrangements you may have.

Death insurance

Helps your family pay their expenses when you can’t be there.

How does it work?

This insurance pays a lump sum to your beneficiaries if you die, or to you if you’re diagnosed with a

Terminal Illness.

If we pay a Terminal Illness benefit to you, your Death insurance will reduce by the amount of the

payment. Where your Death insurance is greater than the amount of the Terminal Illness benefit

paid, the residual Death insurance will continue, and your ongoing premiums will reduce

accordingly.

The amount of your benefit will be determined on the relevant Date of Claim.

Eligibility

To be eligible for this insurance, you must be between ages 15 and 69.

Death (including Terminal Illness) insurance ends at age 70.

� No part of an increase to a Death Benefit is payable where the death is due to suicide within

the first 24 months after the commencement of the increased cover.

self-inflicted injury within the first 24 months of starting or reinstating your insurance.

superannuation fund or insurer.

11

Death and Total and Permanent Disablement (TPD)

insurance

Gives you financial security for the unexpected.

How does it work?

This insurance pays a lump sum if you die, are diagnosed with a Terminal Illness or become Totally

and Permanently Disabled.

If we pay a Terminal Illness benefit to you, your Death and TPD insurance will each reduce by the

amount of the payment. Where your Death or TPD insurance is greater than the amount of the

Terminal Illness benefit paid, the residual insurance will continue, and your ongoing premiums will

reduce accordingly.

If we pay a TPD benefit to you, your Death insurance will reduce by the amount of the payment.

Where your Death insurance is greater than the amount of the TPD benefit paid, the residual Death

insurance will continue, and your ongoing premiums will reduce accordingly.

Your TPD Benefit or Terminal Illness Benefit can't exceed the amount of your Death Benefit, except

where otherwise agreed by the Insurer.

The amount of your benefit will be determined on the relevant Date of Claim.

Eligibility

To be eligible for this insurance, you must be between ages 15 and 69.

TPD insurance can continue up to age 70. Your insurance may end earlier depending on the

arrangements of your former employer plan.

If you are age 65 or over, you will only be eligible for a TPD Benefit if you satisfy the 'Activities of

Daily Living' definition of TPD (see the Definitions section for details).

Eligible occupations

A TPD benefit is only payable if:

� on the last working day prior to your Date of Claim, you were not working in an Uninsurable

Occupation; or

� on the day prior to the Date of Claim, you were a 'Homemaker' or unemployed.

existing Condition if, prior to the most recent date you became insured under the Master Policy, you

were paid, or were entitled to be paid, a TPD or Terminal Illness benefit from the Insurer or another

superannuation fund or insurer.

13

Tapering of TPD Benefits

If you:

• were transferred into MLC MasterKey Business Super on the commencement date of your

Plan (11 April 2006) or were eligible to transfer at that time but transferred at a later time;

• held TPD cover immediately prior to the transfer,

then your TPD insurance will remain at the same level after age 61 until the date cover ceases.

For all other members, unless the Insurer otherwise agrees, the Insurer will reduce your TPD cover

beginning from when you attain age 61 by equal amounts each year until the age your TPD insurance

ends.

Early payment

Where it can be clearly established to the Insurer's satisfaction that you are likely to be Totally and

Permanently Disabled, the Insurer may, at its discretion, pay the TPD Benefit before you are absent

from your Occupation for six consecutive months (see the definition of 'Totally and Permanently

Disabled' for details about when the six month period will apply).

14

Features of Death insurance and Death & TPD insurance

Terminal Illness benefits

We’ll pay you a Terminal Illness benefit if you’re diagnosed with a Terminal Illness. Your Terminal

Illness benefit is calculated as your Death Benefit less any TPD benefit you may have already

received, up to a maximum of $3 million. Your insurance (consisting of any cover you have for death,

Terminal Illness or TPD) will then be reduced by the amount of this payment. Where your Death or

TPD insurance is greater than the amount of the Terminal Illness benefit paid, the residual insurance

will continue, and your ongoing premiums will reduce accordingly.

You won’t have to repay the Terminal Illness benefit if you live longer than 24 months.

The amount of your Terminal Illness benefit will be determined on the relevant Date of Claim.

Leave of absence/parental leave

You can take up to 24 months’ Leave of Absence from your Employment with or without pay and

keep your insurance on the same terms and conditions as if you had remained in active

Employment, provided:

� you continue to pay your premiums,

� remain employed by your employer,

� continue to be an Insured Member of MLC MasterKey Business Super,

� do not join any armed forces (excluding the Australian Defence Force Reserves not deployed

overseas), and

� comply with the other terms of the Master Policy.

Your employer's approval of your leave must be in writing and be provided to the Insurer on

request.

You can also apply to extend this period by giving us at least 60 days’ notice before your Leave of

Absence ends, which is subject to acceptance by the Insurer, at its discretion.

Any benefit payable will be based on the level of insurance notified to and accepted by the Insurer

before commencement of your Leave of Absence.

If you apply for additional cover while on Leave of Absence, your application will be subject to

underwriting and any additional cover will not commence until the Insurer provides written notice of

acceptance and you return to work.

If you do not return to your employment on or before the nominated return to work date as agreed

with your employer before you went on Leave of Absence and the Insurer has not granted an

extension, your insurance will continue provided premiums continue to be paid. However, your

insurance will be based on your Occupation and employment status immediately prior to the Date of

Claim.

15

Interim Accident Insurance

If you apply for Death insurance or an increase in Death insurance and die as a result of, in the

Insurer's opinion, an Injury occurring while your application is being assessed by the Insurer and

within 365 days of the Injury occurring, a lump sum Interim Accident Benefit of the amount you have

applied for will be paid.

If you apply for TPD insurance or an increase in TPD insurance, you will be paid a lump sum Interim

Accident Benefit of the amount you’ve applied for up to a maximum of $3 million if you suffer any of

the following conditions:

� Quadriplegia;

� Major Brain Injury; or

� the total and irreversible inability to perform at least two of the Activities of Daily Living as a

result of an Injury occurring during the period of Interim Accident cover.

You will be covered for an Interim Accident Benefit from the date the Insurer receives a properly

completed application in the required form for the insurance or increase in insurance applied for.

We must also have received superannuation contributions for your benefit for Interim Accident

cover to commence.

Your Interim Accident cover will cease on the earliest of the following events:

� on the Insurer's acceptance or rejection of your application,

� on the withdrawal of your application,

� 180 days from the commencement of your Interim Accident cover,

� the day you cease to be insured (where you already hold insurance) or the day you cease to

meet the eligibility criteria

� the date the Insurer ceases to be liable under the Master Policy.

If your Interim Accident cover is for Death and TPD, you will only be eligible for one Interim Accident

Benefit, whichever is the first you become eligible for. The Insurer will only pay out one Interim

Accident Benefit for any one Accident.

In respect of insurance which commenced on or after 21 November 2011, an Interim Accident

benefit is not payable in certain circumstances, including:

� for death, Quadriplegia, Major Brain Injury or the total and irreversible inability to perform

at least two of the Activities of Daily Living as a result of an Injury occurring during the

period of Interim Accident cover, arising from an Injury caused by engaging in any

Uninsurable or Special Risk Occupation, pastimes or sports that would not be covered under

the Insurer's normal assessment guidelines,

� if the cover applied for would have been declined under the Insurer's normal assessment

guidelines,

� if the application is for an event or condition that would have been excluded under the

Insurer's normal underwriting process, and

� death, Quadriplegia, Major Brain Injury or the total and irreversible inability to perform at

least two of the Activities of Daily Living as a result of an Injury occurring during the period

16

of Interim Accident cover, from an Injury occurring prior to the date Interim Accident cover

commenced.

In addition, the general exclusions in the 'When won't a benefit be paid?' sections above also apply

to Interim Accident cover.

The Interim Accident Certificate is available in the How to Guide on mlc.com.au/howto/mkbs

Increases without medical evidence

From ages 15 to 64 you can apply to increase your Death and TPD insurance without further medical

evidence, subject to acceptance by the Insurer, when you:

� adopt or have a child

� get married or divorced

� complete your first undergraduate degree at an Australian Government-recognised

institution

� have a dependent child who starts secondary school for the first time

� are granted a loan from a financial institution for your first ever purchase of a principal place

of residence,

� are granted an increased loan from a financial institution to renovate your principal place of

residence,

� lose a spouse through death, or

� become a carer for the first time,

referred to as a Specific Life Event.

The increase can be up to 25% of your original insurance amount, but it can’t be more than $200,000

(or such other limit set by the Insurer from time to time). To apply for the increase, you must

complete and return the 'Increases without medical evidence' form available on mlc.com.au,

together with evidence acceptable to the Insurer of the Specific Life Event.

You must also apply within 90 days of the event occurring. You can only use this feature once in any

12-month period, and up to three times in total. The Insurer may reject an application or reduce the

amount applied for to the extent it exceeds the limit on the increase in insurance that can be

obtained using this feature or would increase your insurance beyond $1 million (or such other

amount as the Insurer may agree). No automatic increases in cover (other than under the Specific

Life Event feature) will apply from the date a Specific Life Event increase becomes effective.

17

Income Protection insurance

Helps you concentrate on getting better, without worrying about bills.

How does it work?

This insurance provides a monthly benefit of up to 75% of your Monthly Income while you’re Totally

Disabled or Partially Disabled.

If you are engaged in Permanent Full Time Employment or Permanent Part Time Employment, you

or your employer can choose a Benefit Period of:

� two years

� five years, or

� age 65,

or as agreed by the Insurer.

� the end of your contracted period of employment last agreed with the employer before

the date of the event leading to a claim for the benefit, or

� you attaining the age of 65;

� Benefit Period until age 65, as selected or agreed by the Insurer, your Benefit Period will end

on the later of:

� 2 years, and

� the expiry of your contracted period of employment last agreed with the employer

before the date of the event leading to a claim for the benefit,

but subject to the maximum insurance age of 65.

You can also choose from a range of Waiting Periods, being the period that you are Totally Disabled

or Partially Disabled during which no Total Disability or Partial Disability Benefits are payable. The

Waiting Period starts on the Date of Claim and requires the Insured Member to be Totally Disabled

for at least 14 consecutive days from the start of the Waiting Period.

working day prior to the Date of Claim, were Totally Disabled for the first 14 consecutive days of the

of the Benefit Period applicable to the Insured Member, but only in relation to that Illness or Injury.

You may also have a Superannuation Contribution Benefit, subject to you, the Trustee or your

employer having submitted an application that is acceptable to the Insurer. A Superannuation

Contribution Benefit provides an additional benefit paid into your MLC MasterKey Business Super

account or another complying superannuation fund of your choice, while you’re Totally Disabled or

Partially Disabled.

The maximum monthly benefit payable to you is the lesser of the following:

� up to 75% of the first $40,000 of your Monthly Income, and up to 50% of the next $40,000 of

your Monthly Income; and

� the insured percentage of your Monthly Income (which may not exceed 75%)

If you have a Superannuation Contribution Benefit, an additional amount may be paid into your

super account, up to a maximum of 15% of your Monthly Income.

The maximum monthly benefit payable is subject to an overall total maximum benefit of $50,000

per month for the first two years of your Benefit Period, including any Superannuation Contributions

Benefit.

If your benefit payment continues beyond two years, the overall total maximum benefit payable is

$30,000 per month for the remaining Benefit Period including any Superannuation Contribution

Benefit.

(Monthly Income – Actual Monthly Income) x monthly benefit

Monthly Income

A Partial Disability Benefit will commence at the latest of the expiration of the Waiting Period or the

date you cease to be Totally Disabled if you are Partially Disabled at that date.

Making sure you’re eligible

To be eligible for Income Protection insurance you must be between ages 15 and 64 and must not be

engaged in Excluded Employment.

To be eligible for an Income Protection Benefit, you must be:

� engaged in Covered Employment, and

� not engaged in Excluded Employment,

on the last working day prior to the Date of Claim.

Income Protection insurance ends at age 65.

When will benefits be reduced?

Any Total or Partial Disability Benefit payable will be reduced to the extent you are, during the

period of Total Disability or Partial Disability:

� receiving any regular income (including sick leave but excluding payments made pursuant to

statutory or contractual annual leave accrued prior to the date you ceased working, long

service leave or redundancy entitlements) from your employer;

� receiving payments made under any other similar policies, and

� entitled to payments made under workers’ compensation and/or similar legislation. This

doesn’t include Centrelink payments or benefits at common law, where such benefits are

payable on a periodic basis (whether paid or not).

The reduction will be sufficient to ensure that:

� the Total Disability Benefit or Partial Disability Benefit payable, together with the aggregate

of the other payments or entitlements, will not exceed your insured percentage of Monthly

Income.

� the amount the Insurer pays in Total Disability Benefits or Partial Disability Benefits,

together with the aggregate of the other payments or entitlements (including arising under

the Policy other than rehabilitation expenses and Superannuation Contribution Benefits),

will not exceed the amount derived by your Income Protection benefit formula.

Any income from other sources which is in the form of a lump sum or is commuted for a lump sum

will be treated as a monthly amount equivalent to one sixtieth of the lump sum over a period of 60

20

months, to calculate the reduction in monthly benefits (one twenty-fourth (1/24) over 24 months for

a two year benefit period).

Income from other sources does not include:

� income earned from investments; and

� any lump sum total and permanent disablement benefit.

When your worker's compensation entitlement is in dispute, the Insurer will pay the full amount of

the Total Disability Benefit or the Partial Disability Benefit on a conditional basis until the dispute is

resolved. If you are successful and are declared entitled to workers' compensation benefits, it is a

condition of this insurance cover that:

� you will repay to the Insurer that part of any Total Disability Benefit or Partial Disability

Benefit which would otherwise not have been paid if not for the conditional payment; and

� the Insurer may at any time recover this amount by offsetting it against any amounts that

may subsequently become due in respect of you under the Policy including any TPD Benefit

or Terminal Illness Benefit.

When won’t Income Protection benefits be paid?

Income Protection Benefits won’t be paid to you for Total or Partial Disability due to:

� an intentional self-inflicted Injury or any attempt to commit suicide irrespective of whether

you are sane or insane; or

� any other event or matter in the Policy or notified by the Insurer.

Further, if you have applied for and been granted any new or increased Income Protection cover

since the commencement date of your Plan (11 April 2006), Income Protection Benefits also won’t

be paid to you for Total or Partial Disability due to:

� normal and uncomplicated pregnancy or childbirth; or

� any act of war (whether declared or not) or service in armed forces (not including Australian

Defence Force Reserves not employed overseas),

in respect of that new or increased cover.

Benefits are available worldwide, however payment is limited to one year if you are not continuously

a resident in Australia or an Approved Country.

Pre-existing conditions

Where automatic acceptance applies, if you do not have New Events Cover, the Insurer will pay

Income Protection Benefits for Total Disability resulting from a Pre-existing Condition. Where

applicable, the Insurer will pay Income Protection Benefits in excess of the automatic acceptance

limit provided the Pre-existing Condition has been disclosed to and accepted by the Insurer.

For all cover commencing or increases to cover commencing on or after 5 December 2014:

No Income Protection Benefit will be paid for Total Disability or Partial Disability caused directly or

indirectly by any Pre-existing Condition if prior to the most recent date you became insured under

21

the Policy, you were paid, or are entitled to be paid, a TPD or Terminal Illness benefit from us or

another superannuation fund or insurer.

When payments cease

Payment of any monthly benefit for Total Disability will end at the earliest of:

� the end of your Benefit Period;

� when you are no longer Totally Disabled;

� when you attain 65 years of age;

� on your death;

� when you are no longer under the regular and continuous care of a Doctor;

� the date there is a failure to provide the Insurer with all requested information and other

evidence reasonably required to assess your claim; or

� you make a fraudulent claim.

Payment of any Partial Disability Benefit will end at the earliest of:

� when you are no longer Partially Disabled;

� the occurrence of any of the events that would cause a monthly benefit for Total Disability

to cease (except the end of your Total Disability); or

� you earn a level of income equal to or greater than your Pre-Disability Income that you were

earning immediately prior to the start of your Total Disability or Restricted Monthly Income

(whichever is lesser).

Other

Overseas Travel

Cover for Income Protection Benefits applies worldwide. However, Income Protection Benefits will

be limited to 12 months if you are not continuously resident in an Approved Country.

The 12 month limited period commences from:

� if you ceased to be continuously resident in an Approved Country after the start of your

Total Disability, the later of the date when you last continuously resided in an Approved

Country and the end of your Waiting Period; or

� if you were not residing in an Approved Country as of the start of your Total Disability, the

end of the Waiting Period.

After the 12 month limited period, no Income Protection Benefits will be payable unless and until

you return to an Approved Country. If you return to an Approved Country and are still Totally or

Partially Disabled, your Income Protection Benefits may be reinstated effective from the date of your

return to the Approved Country and will be payable while you are continuously resident in an

Approved Country.

For two year and five year Benefit Periods, the Benefit Period will only accrue while Income

Protection Benefits are being paid.

Features of Income Protection insurance

Choice of waiting period

You pay a lower premium the longer the Waiting Period. You can select a 30, 60 or 90-day Waiting

Period when you apply. You also have the option of a 180-day Waiting Period if you have a Benefit

Period of 5 years or to age 65.

Interim Disability Accident Insurance

If you are eligible for Income Protection insurance and apply for Income Protection insurance or an

increase in Income Protection insurance and suffer a Total Disability which in the Insurer's opinion is

a result of an Injury occurring during the period of interim cover, you will be paid an Interim

Disability Accident Benefit.

You will be covered for an Interim Disability Accident Benefit from the date the Insurer receives a

properly completed personal statement and declaration of health to the earliest of the following

dates:

� the date the Insurer gives notice that it accepts (on any terms) or rejects the application;

� the date you that your application for cover (or an increase in cover) is cancelled or

withdrawn;

� the date you cease to be eligible for Income Protection insurance;

� the date cover otherwise ceases under the Master Policy; or

� 90 days after the commencement of interim cover.

The Interim Disability Accident Benefit provides a benefit of up to the monthly benefit applied for,

subject to the maximum monthly benefit applicable to Income Protection insurance. For Insured

Members whose cover commenced after 1 April 2009 a maximum of $50,000 per month applies.

The Interim Disability Accident Benefit is payable for as long as the Total Disability continues or to

the end of the Benefit Period, whichever occurs first, subject to a maximum of 2 years.

An Interim Disability Accident Benefit is not payable:

� for an Injury is caused by the Insured Member engaging in an Uninsurable or Special Risk

Occupation pastime or sport that would not be covered under the Insurer's normal

assessment guidelines; or

� where cover would have been declined under the Insurer's normal assessment guidelines; or

� where a claim is lodged for an event or condition that would have been excluded under the

Insurer's normal underwriting process; or

� where the Injury occurs before the person becomes an Eligible Member.

The Insurer will not pay more than one Benefit under this Interim Disability Accident Benefit for any

one Accident to any person.

The Interim Accident Certificate is available in the How to Guide on mlc.com.au/howto/mkbs

23

Returning to work during the waiting period

Prior to 29 November 2013

You can return to work during the Waiting Period for up to five days at Full Capacity without your

Waiting Period being restarted. Your Waiting Period will be extended by the amount of days you

return to work at Full Capacity. If you return to work for more than five days at Full Capacity, your

Waiting Period will start again. These days don’t have to be consecutive.

On and from 29 November 2013

You can return to work during the Waiting Period, for up to:

� five days if your Waiting Period is not more than 30 days, or

� ten days if your Waiting Period is more than 30 days,

� without your Waiting Period being restarted.

Your Waiting Period will be extended by the amount of days you return to work at Full Capacity. If

you return to work at Full Capacity for more than the maximum days above, your Waiting Period will

start again. These days don’t have to be consecutive.

Salary-linked insurance increases

Your insurance may increase in line with any salary increase you receive, by up to 30% within any 12-

month period provided the increase remains within automatic acceptance limits or forward

underwriting limits (where applicable) and the evidence of salary increase is considered sufficient by

the Insurer. The Insurer may not require you to provide Evidence of Insurability.

Where your salary increase exceeds 30% or would otherwise cause the level of Income Protection

Benefits to exceed the automatic acceptance limits or forward underwriting limits (where

applicable), any increase will be subject to underwriting.

Insuring super contributions (Superannuation Contributions Benefits)

You can insure the super contributions your employer makes for you, up to 15% of your Monthly

Income, subject to you, the Trustee or your employer having submitted an application that is

acceptable to the Insurer.

A Superannuation Contribution Benefit provides an additional benefit paid into your MLC MasterKey

Business Super account or another complying superannuation fund of your choice, while you’re

Totally Disabled or Partially Disabled.

The Superannuation Contribution Benefit payable is:

� for Total Disability, an amount equal to the Super Contribution Benefit Percentage of your

Monthly Income; or

� for Partial Disability, an amount equal to the Super Contribution Benefit Percentage of your

Monthly Income less your Actual Monthly Income in that month.

24

The amount of the Superannuation Contribution Benefit will not exceed:

� 15% of your Monthly Income; or

� the maximum monthly benefit when combined with the Total Disability Benefit.

The Superannuation Contribution Benefit shall cease to be payable when you cease to be entitled to

a Total Disability or Partial Disability Benefit.

CPI-linked benefits

If you have a '5 year' or 'to age 65' Benefit Period and you receive monthly benefits for 12

consecutive months, the monthly benefits will be increased (indexed) annually by the lesser of 5%

and the percentage increase (if any) in the CPI for the previous 12 months. This does not apply for

the two-year Benefit Period.

If Total Disability or Partial Disability Benefits cease to be payable, for the purposes of any future

payments, Total Disability and Partial Disability Benefit entitlements will revert to the original

percentage of Monthly Income or other amount replaced or varied in accordance with the other

clauses of the Master Policy.

Rehabilitation expenses benefit

Where you are being paid a Total Disability or Partial Disability Benefit, where permitted by law, the

Insurer will pay for expenses which are:

� incurred to directly assist you to return to work in a gainful occupation or in undertaking a

vocational retraining program because of your Total or Partial Disability;

� approved in advance in writing by the Insurer; and

� approved by your Doctor,

such as the cost of a formal rehabilitation course or the cost of special equipment such as a

motorised wheelchair to help you return to work.

The Insurer will not pay any money directly or indirectly to you or the Fund, but will pay the

rehabilitation expenses to the service providers directly or provide the rehabilitation services itself.

The maximum amount of rehabilitation expenses payable is six times the monthly benefit (less any

amount that may be claimed from any other source as reimbursement), or such greater amount as

the Insurer determines in its absolute discretion. Evidence of the cost of the rehabilitation program

or other expense will be required.

Bereavement Benefit

If you die whilst in receipt of a Total Disability Benefit or Partial Disability Benefit and no Death

Benefit is payable under this insurance cover, subject to the expiry of the Benefit Period, the Insurer

will pay an amount after the date of death of:

� 3 months of Total Disability Benefits (Benefit Period of 2 or less years or of 5 or less years),

or

� 6 months of Total Disability Benefits (Benefit Period to age 65).

25

Recurring disability

Your Waiting Period will not recommence if your Total Disability or Partial Disability recurs within six

months of the date you ceased to be Totally or Partially Disabled due to returning to your usual

Occupation or a different Occupation, provided that the cause of the recurrent Total Disability or

Partial Disability is the same or related to the cause of the original Total Disability. The Policy and

your Income Protection cover must both be in force when the Total or Partial Disability recurs.

Regardless of whether a Total Disability or Partial Disability recurs within the 6 month period, the

same Benefit Period will apply to the entire period of Total Disability and Partial Disability including

the original claim and any recurrent claim where the cause of the recurrent Total Disability or Partial

Disability is the same or related to the cause of the original Total Disability.

If you become an Insured Member after 1 July 2016 and have a 2 or 5 year Income Protection

Benefit Period, once your Benefit Period expires, a new Benefit Period will only commence if:

� you suffer an Injury or Illness which is different to that which caused or contributed to your

Total or Partial Disability in the previous Benefit Period; and

� you returned to Covered Employment prior to the Date of Claim applicable to the new

Benefit Period.

Waiver of premiums

While you receive monthly benefits, you don’t pay any Income Protection insurance premiums. On

cessation of payment of the Total or Partial Disability Benefit, premiums will be charged again unless

your Income Protection cover has ended.

Leave of absence/parental leave

You can take up to 24 months’ Leave of Absence from your Employment with or without pay and

keep your insurance on the same terms and conditions as if you had remained in active

Employment, provided:

� you continue to pay your premiums,

� remain employed by your employer,

� continue to be an Insured Member of MLC MasterKey Business Super,

� do not join any armed forces (excluding the Australian Defence Force Reserves not deployed

overseas), and

� comply with the other terms of the Master Policy.

Your employer's approval of your leave must be in writing and be provided to the Insurer on

request.

You can also apply to extend this period by giving us at least 60 days’ notice before your Leave of

Absence ends, which is subject to acceptance by the Insurer, at its discretion.

Any benefit payable will be based on the Monthly Income notified to and accepted by the Insurer

before commencement of your Leave of Absence.

26

If you apply for additional cover while on Leave of Absence, your application will be subject to

underwriting and any additional cover will not commence until the Insurer provides written notice of

acceptance and you return to work.

If you do not return to your employment on or before the nominated return to work date as agreed

with your employer before you went on Leave of Absence and the Insurer has not granted an

extension, your insurance will continue provided premiums continue to be paid. However, your

insurance will be based on your Occupation and employment status immediately prior to the Date of

Claim.

If you suffer a Total Disability and you are entitled to cover whilst on Leave of Absence, the Insurer

will pay a benefit at the rate of your Total Disability Benefit or Partial Disability Benefit as applicable.

Payment of any benefit will start from the later of:

� your nominated return to work date as agreed to by the employer before you go on Leave of

Absence, or the date last agreed to by the employer prior to your Total Disability; and

� the end of the Waiting Period,

and end in accordance with the 'When payments cease' section above.

Insurance – the details

How to apply for increases

Everybody has different needs and insurance is no exception.

That’s why we help you create an insurance solution to suit you and your family’s needs.

You can apply to change your cover. Your application for a change in cover will be subject to you

providing Evidence of Insurability and acceptance by the Insurer, who may set such terms and

conditions and request information as it reasonably requires.

How to apply

To apply for insurance, or to apply to increase your insurance, please log in to your account online,

or complete the Short form insurance application available on mlc.com.au.

Your financial adviser can help you alter your insurance.

During the application process for new or additional cover, you will be required to provide

information about your occupation, lifestyle, leisure activities and medical history.

We'll let you know if the Insurer has accepted or declined your application, or if the Insurer is only

willing to accept your application subject to special terms and conditions.

Any increase or decrease that has been accepted will take effect from the date of the Insurer's

written acceptance.

You can contact us or your financial adviser to find out what the additional premiums will be.

Cancelling your insurance

If you want to cancel your insurance, please call us on 132 652.

What you need to tell us

It’s important you disclose every matter you know, or could reasonably be expected to know, that

could be relevant to the decision to accept your application. If the Insurer is provided with an

incorrect date of birth, the Insurer may revise the Insured Member's benefits. In the event of any

failure to comply with a duty of disclosure, or a misrepresentation being made to the Insurer, the

Insurer may avoid or vary the Insured Member's cover.

You must also let us know if any of the information you provide changes prior to your application

being accepted (for example you have an Accident) or if your existing insurance is extended, varied

or reinstated. If you don’t, your insurance may not be valid.

28

About your premium

Premiums are deducted from your account balance in your investment options other than MySuper.

If you have no balance in those investment options, it’s deducted from your balance in MySuper.

You can see your premiums paid and insurance cover at any time by going to mlc.com.au and logging

in to view your account online.

It’s calculated based on the type and amount of insurance you have, depending on your individual

circumstances such as age and Occupation.

The latest Occupation ratings guide for insurance is available on mlc.com.au/occupation

If we ask you to provide evidence of your health, your premium can also be influenced by factors

such as your:

� medical history, and

� lifestyle and leisure activities.

How often do you pay your premiums?

Premiums are deducted monthly from your account.

Will premiums change?

Your premiums may be adjusted for:

� your age

� changes to your insurance, or

� changes in your circumstances, such as changes to your Occupation.

The Insurer may also make changes to premium rates, which could increase or decrease your

premiums. We’ll tell you about any material increases to premium rates at least 30 days before they

take effect. Notification of any non-material changes may be made available online on mlc.com.au,

but you may not be directly notified of these updates. You may, however, obtain a paper copy of

these change communications on request free of charge.

Fees may be charged if you request a service not currently offered. To the extent that the premiums

do not incorporate any applicable taxes or charges, these taxes and charges may be deducted from

your account in addition to the premiums. The Insurer may change the premium rates at any time in

the event of a change in any government charge, licence fee, tax or other impost that relates directly

to the premiums, sums insured or risks of the Policy and in the event of invasion or outbreak of war.

We may charge members or the Fund generally, with actual or estimated costs of running the Fund.

These may include costs resulting from government legislation or fees that are charged by third

parties.

29

Keep your details up to date

You need to let us know about changes to your personal details, such as a change in your Occupation

within 130 days.

If you don’t notify us within this time, any claims may be declined.

Different TPD definitions may apply and Income Protection cover may change or may cease to be

available if you change your Occupation and/or your working capacity.

If you change from an Insurable Occupation to an Uninsurable Occupation, you may retain your

Death and TPD cover (if any). However, in the event of a claim for TPD, you will be assessed under

the Activities of Daily Living definition.

When your insurance will end

Your insurance will end on the earlier of any of the following events:

� except in respect of a Death Benefit, Interim Accident Benefit or Bereavement Benefit, on

your death

� you’re no longer eligible for insurance

� you don’t have enough funds in your account to cover the cost of insurance as at a premium

due date. You’ll continue to be covered for 30 days after the premium due date as long as

you are a member of the Plan

� you take a Leave of Absence for more than 24 months (or such other period as accepted by

the Insurer) without getting approval for continued insurance or you stop paying premiums

during the period of Leave of Absence

� on the day before you commence duty with any armed services of any country, except for

the Australian Defence Force Reserves not deployed overseas

� you reach the maximum insurable age

� in respect of a Death Benefit, Terminal Illness Benefit, TPD Benefit or Interim Accident

Benefit, the benefit is paid

� when the total of any Terminal Illness Benefit, TPD Benefit or Interim Accident Benefit (for

Quadriplegia, Major Brain Injury or the total and irreversible inability to perform at least two

of the Activities of Daily Living as a result of Injury occurring during the period of interim

cover) is equal to or exceeds your Death cover

� in respect of an Income Protection Benefit payable in relation to a particular Illness or Injury,

on the expiry of the applicable Benefit Period, but only in relation to that Illness or Injury

� you cease to be a member of the Fund

� you cancel your insurance or your insurance or the Master Policy is otherwise cancelled or

terminated for any reason

� any other event or matter referred to in the Master Policy as bringing about the cessation of

cover occurs.

If your Policy or cover is cancelled, the Insurer will only pay a claim if the claimant was an Insured

Member at the date of cancellation, the Date of Claim of the Insured Event which gave rise to the

claim occurred before the date of cancellation and any arrears of Premiums have been paid up to

the date of cancellation.

30

If you have Income Protection insurance with either the two year or five year Benefit Period, it will

end on the date the Insurer pays a lump sum TPD or Terminal Illness benefit, subject to the

following:

• Where your Total Disability commenced on a Date of Claim prior to the date the TPD or

Terminal Illness benefit was paid and you were entitled to an Income Protection Benefit on

that date, or at the end of the Waiting Period after that date, Income Protection Benefits

will continue to be payable while you continue to be Totally Disabled or Partially Disabled

due to the same Illness or Injury during the Benefit Period but your Income Protection cover

will cease in all other respects.

The Insurer's liability to pay any benefits which have not already accrued will cease on the date a

fraudulent claim is made, in respect of the claim for that benefit.

Cessation of your cover does not affect the Insurer's liability to pay a benefit that has accrued prior

to the date of cessation of the cover.

More detail on when your insurance will end can be found in the MLC Master Policy. Please call us if

you’d like a copy.

What happens when you leave your employer?

Once your employer tells us you're no longer their employee, we'll transfer your account to

MLC MasterKey Personal Super where all of your insurances will continue and will become fixed

amounts. You can apply to increase these amounts. Your premiums may be higher in

MLC MasterKey Personal Super.

Continuation option

If:

� you are an Insured Member and employment with your Participating Employer ends, or you

are a 'Family Insured Member' who ceases to meet that definition and does not transfer out

of the Fund; and

� you are not eligible for cover under MLC MasterKey Personal Super; and

� your cover has not ceased because of duty with any armed forces (excluding the Australian

Defence Force Reserves not deployed overseas),

you may apply to exercise an option for continuation of your cover. If accepted, the cover will

be of a type available from the Insurer at the time of the exercise of the option.

The following conditions apply in relation to term life insurance continuation policies:

� you must be at least 5 years younger than the Maximum Insurable Age for the relevant type

of cover applied for;

� none of the Trustee, Participating Employer (on your behalf) or you may be claiming,

receiving or entitled to receive or claim insurance payments for total and permanent

disablement or any Illness or Injury under the MLC Master Policy or any other insurance

policy issued by any insurance company; and

� you must have had cover for TPD Benefits under the MLC Master Policy immediately prior to

becoming eligible to exercise the continuance option, and if you were an employee of a

31

Participating Employer under the MLC Master Policy you must engage in Permanent Part

Time Employment acceptable to the Insurer within 90 days of ceasing employment with the

Participating Employer. The Insurer may require the person to supply satisfactory

occupation and earnings information.

In addition, the following conditions apply in relation to income protection continuation policies:

� you must be under 60 years old;

� you must have had Income Protection cover in place immediately prior to ceasing

employment with a Participating Employer;

� you must have started Permanent Part Time Employment in a similar Occupation in a

capacity acceptable to the Insurer for income protection insurance;

� if you apply for cover after 21 November 2011, you have not ceased to be an Australian

Resident; and

� none of the Trustee, Participating Employer (on your behalf) or you may be claiming,

receiving or entitled to receive or claim any Total Disability or Partial Disability Benefits

under the MLC Master Policy or similar benefits under any other insurance policy issued by

any insurance company, and you must not have previously received Total Disability Benefits

for the Insured Member's Maximum Benefit Period.

The Insurer may refuse to provide cover under the continuation option in the event the Insurer does

not market a term life insurance continuation policy or income protection policy which covers the

occupational risk of the person applying for the continuation option.

What happens if you leave the Fund?

If you transfer your super to another fund, your insurance will continue for up to 60 days. During

this time, you can let us know if you wish to apply for similar insurance with a personal MLC

insurance policy.

Making a claim

The Trustee must promptly notify the Insurer of an event giving rise to a claim under the Policy. The

Insurer will then provide you with a claim form which must be fully completed and returned as soon

as possible. Your Occupation category and employment type at the Date of Claim will be

determined by the Insurer to assess your eligibility for cover, type of cover and applicable Policy

terms.

If there is a delay of more than one year after the event giving rise to the claim before the claim

form is provided to the Insurer, then the Insurer's liability will be reduced to the extent the delay

prejudices the Insurer's interests.

32

Prior to paying a claim, the Insurer must receive satisfactory:

� proof of age; and

� proof of the occurrence of the Insured Event, including:

� the completed claim form;

� evidence to substantiate the claim and additional evidence reasonably required by the

Insurer, at your expense;

� evidence obtained from medical examinations or assessments the Insurer reasonably

requires you to participate in, at the Insurer's expense;

� for Death Benefit claims, a post-mortem examination report if required by the Insurer;

� for Terminal Illness and TPD claims, medical reports from two treating Doctors,

and payment will be subject to any other terms and conditions of the MLC Master Policy.

Income Protection claims

Income Protection Benefits are only payable while you are under the regular care and attendance of

an appropriately qualified Doctor and comply with reasonable advice for treatment given by that

Doctor.

Where a claim is ongoing, Income Protection Benefit entitlements will be regularly reviewed and:

� any further evidence is to be provided by you as the Insurer requires; and

� the Insurer may conduct a reconciliation of benefits to determine any overpayment or

underpayment in each year; and

� from 1 July 2016, where an overpayment is identified that arises from, or is contributed to

by, you providing incorrect information or failing to provide information:

� the Insurer will provide us with written notice that it wishes to seek recovery of the

overpayment and evidence as reasonably required that the overpayment arose from, or was

contributed to, by you providing incorrect information or failing to provide information; and

� subject to the Insurer proving to our reasonable satisfaction that the overpayment arose

from, or was contributed to, by you providing incorrect information or failing to provide

information, either:

� we may at our discretion either:

� appoint the Insurer as our agent to recover at the Insurer's discretion the amount of the

overpayment (irrespective of when the overpayment arose) and the Insurer may retain any

such amounts it recovers; or

� pay the Insurer the amount of the overpayment; or

� the Insurer may, after consulting with us, instead recover the amount of the overpayment by

offsetting it against any amounts that may subsequently become due in respect of you

under the Policy, including any TPD or Terminal Illness Benefit.
