(Form No. R I0825-T (base policy insured and other insured))
The Monthly Disability Income Rider provides a monthly benefit, after the elimination period, if the insured becomes totally disabled (as described below) prior to the insured’s 65th birthday.
“Total disability” is a condition due to injury or sickness which keeps the insured from doing the important, substantial and material duties of their own occupation and requires a physician’s care unless the insured has reached the maximum point of recovery.
Availability: Available at time of application only to the base policy insured and one other insured. The other insured must have an insurance relationship with the policyowner and have been approved for the Other Insured Level Term Rider. Other insured premiums are based on their gender, underwriting class and age.
Issue Ages: age last birthday, as follows -
• 10-year, 15-year and 20-year level premium periods, 18 through 60
• 30-year level premium period, 18 through 50
Termination Age: The earlier of the end of the initial term period of the base policy to which it is attached, or the insured’s attained age 65.
Benefit Amounts: $300 through the lesser of $3,000 or 1.5 percent of base policy benefit amount; issue amounts rounded to the lowest $100 increment. Also limited to a maximum of 60 percent of the applicant’s gross earned monthly income (40 percent in California) and based on the total of all in-force and applied-for individual and group disability income benefits.
Benefit Period: Two years

Issue Limitations: Only available through Table 4 (200 percent). The rider itself cannot be rated. Disability riders are limited to one rider per insured, per policy.
