Provide Other Coverage - Riders can be added to the policy to insure a spouse and/or children, parents, or business partners, guaranteeing their future insurability.

Insurance Benefit Options
No matter what option you choose, a higher Life Insurance Benefit will apply if necessary to qualify as life insurance under Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code.
Fixed Account
Minimum guaranteed interest rate is 3%.
The current interest rate is set by NYLIAC and is subject to change daily. Interest rates will be set in advance and become effective no later than the next day. All amounts (including any applied to or transferred to the Fixed Account) receive the current interest rate. Different rates may apply to loaned and unloaned funds.
Investment Options
The NYLIAC Variable Universal Life 2000 policy offers a variety of investment options. You allocate your premium payments to achieve your financial objectives. You can select up to a maximum of 21 Investment Options, including the Fixed Account at one time.
Transfers
Transfers between Investment Divisions are easy and generally tax-free. There is no limit on the amount of money you can transfer between Investment Divisions. The minimum amount of a transfer from an Investment Division or the Fixed Account is the lesser of $500 or the total value of the Accumulation Unit in the Investment Division from which the transfer is being made. Limits apply to the maximum amount that can be transferred to and/or from the Fixed Account.
Loans
The maximum loan can never exceed 90% of the policy's cash surrender value (cash value less surrender charges, any additional contract charge in the first Policy Year, unpaid loan principal, and accrued loan interest). Other limits and conditions apply. Loans will reduce the policy's cash value and death benefit.
Partial Withdrawals
The minimum available for withdrawal is $500, which is deducted from the policy's cash surrender value (cash value less any surrender charges, any additional contract charge in the first Policy Year, unpaid loan and accrued loan interest). A fee equal to the lessor of $25 or 2% of the amount withdraw will apply. Withdrawals will reduce the policy's cash value and death benefit.
