Understanding how two annuities work is the first step in evaluating whether one might fit your needs. It's important to remember that the guarantees of an annuity contract depend on the issuing company's claims-paying ability. Annuities have contract limitations, fees, and charges, including account and administrative fees, underlying investment management fees, mortality and expense fees, and charges for optional benefits.

Most annuities have surrender fees that are usually highest if you take out the money in the initial years of the annuity contract. Withdrawals and income payments are taxed as ordinary income. If a withdrawal is made prior to age 59½, a 10% federal income tax penalty may apply (unless an exception applies).

This is a hypothetical example used for illustrative purposes only. It is not representative of any specific investment or combination of investments. Annuities are not guaranteed by the FDIC or any other government agency. Actual results will vary.
