(a) The application must contain a statement that discloses the deferred nature of the insurance and that reflects the amount of insurance in force during the deferred period. It may not state only the ultimate amount.
(b) The brief description on the face page and filing back, if any, must call attention to the deferred nature of the insurance, and in no way refer to the accidental death benefit.
(c) If a separate premium is charged for the accidental death benefit, the schedule page must reflect the gross premium broken down in such a manner as to reflect the gross premium for the deferred life insurance and the accidental death benefit independently.
(d) The policy schedule page must reflect the reduced death benefit payable each year the reduction in benefits is maintained, as well as the ultimate face amount payable after the full face amount becomes available. This provision may be in the form of actual figures, a percentage of the ultimate face amount, the premiums plus interest, if applicable, or other provision not in violation of Insurance Code Chapter 1701, concerning Policy Forms, or other laws.
(e) The death benefit during the period of deferred insurance must be as great as the sum of the gross premiums paid (with or without interest). The death benefit may be based on the gross annual premium even though other modes are available under the policy.
(f) The accidental death benefit must be made a part of the entire contract.
(g) The contract of deferred insurance and accidental death benefit must reflect a different form number from any other contract of deferred insurance the company offers.
