2021 Tennessee Code
Chapter 36 - Standard Nonforfeiture Law for Individual Deferred Annuities
§ 56-36-111. Minimum Forfeiture Benefits

For any contract that provides, within the same contract by rider or supplemental contract provisions, both annuity benefits and life insurance benefits that are in excess of the greater of cash surrender benefits or a return of the gross considerations with interest, the minimum nonforfeiture benefits shall be equal to the sum of the minimum nonforfeiture benefits for the annuity portion and the minimum nonforfeiture benefits, if any, for the life insurance portion computed as if each portion were a separate contract. Notwithstanding §§ 56-36-105 — 56-36-108 and 56-36-110, additional benefits payable:
shall be disregarded in ascertaining the minimum nonforfeiture amount, paid-up annuity, cash surrender and death benefits that may be required by this chapter. The inclusion of the additional benefits shall not be required in any paid-up benefits, unless the additional benefits separately would require minimum nonforfeiture amounts, paid-up annuity cash surrender and death benefits.
