This material is not intended to be used, nor can it be used by any taxpayer, for the purpose of avoiding U.S. federal, state or local tax penalties. This material is written to support the promotion or marketing of the transaction(s) or matter(s) addressed by this material. Pacific Life, its affiliates, their distributors and respective representatives do not provide tax, accounting or legal advice. Any taxpayer should seek advice based on the taxpayer’s particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor or attorney.

Pacific Life is a product provider. It is not a fiduciary and therefore does not give advice or make recommendations regarding insurance or investment products.

Pacific Life’s individual life insurance products are marketed exclusively through independent third-party life insurance producers, which may include bank affiliated entities.

Pacific Life refers to Pacific Life Insurance Company and its affiliates, including Pacific Life & Annuity Company. Insurance products are issued by Pacific Life Insurance Company in all states except New York and in New York by Pacific Life & Annuity Company. Product availability and features may vary by state. Each insurance company is solely responsible for the financial obligations accruing under the products it issues. Insurance products and their guarantees, including optional benefits and any crediting rates, are backed by the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company. Look to the strength of the life insurance company with regard to such guarantees as these guarantees are not backed by the broker-dealer, insurance agency, or their affiliates from which products are purchased. Neither these entities nor their representatives make any representation or assurance regarding the claims-paying ability of the life insurance company.

Indexed Universal Life Insurance generally requires additional premium payments after the initial premium. If either no premiums are paid, or subsequent premiums are insufficient to continue coverage, it is possible that coverage will expire.

The indexed universal life products discussed in this presentation do not directly participate in any stock or equity investments. Failure to maintain the policy to maturity may result in no participation in the equity index.

Many life insurance products have some flexibility in how they are structured. For example, death benefit coverage under certain products may be provided through a combination of the base policy and any available term or other riders. Each policy selected, illustrated, and sold should be structured based upon your client’s particular insurance needs and financial objectives. It is your responsibility to know that the particular policy selected, illustrated, and sold will meet your client’s needs and objectives.

*Products no longer available for sale. The Threshold Rate (5% current, 20% guaranteed) is subtracted from the performance of a segment's underlying index to determine the crediting rate.Slides 7-8: Scatter graph data based on Actuarial Guideline 49 methodology (65-Yr lookback (1952-2016)) measuring 10,054 25-Yr holding period compound rates for hypothetical indexed accounts and how they correlate to the S&P price index. These hypothetical returns are only intended to demonstrate the mechanics of an indexed universal life insurance policy, and is not a prediction of how an indexed UL might have operated had it existed over the period depicted above. The actual historical growth cap and growth floor of an indexed life insurance product existing over the period depicted may have been higher or lower than assumed, and likely would have fluctuated subject to product guarantees. Historical returns are no guarantee of future performance. Pacific Life’s first Indexed Account was introduced in September 2005.Slide 13-14 Assumptions: Pacific Life Insurance Company’s Pacific Indexed Performer – LT2 (PIP-LT2, Policy Form #P15IUL and S15PIAP or ICC15 P15IUL and ICC15 S15PIAP, based on state of policy issue, Male, Age 55, Preferred Nonsmoker, $50,000 Premium Yrs 1-10, No Premiums or Distributions Ages 66-70, Minimum Level Death Benefit ($1,401,575), 100% allocation to 1-Yr Indexed Account with 10.5% cap, 0% floor, 100% participation rate. Solve for level policy distributions (withdrawal to basis then switch to standard loans) from Age 71-90. Varying rate assumptions: The following rate sequence was assumed and run two times consecutively: 0%, 0%, 10.50%, 10.50%, 0%, 0%, 10.50%, 10.50%, 0%, 9.54%, 10.50%, 10.50%, 0%, 10.50%, 10.50%, 0.21%, 10.50%, 10.50%, 0%, 10.50%, 10.50%, 0%, 10.50%, 3.36%, 10.50%. After age 104, an illustrated rate of 6.29% was assumed. Distributions of $62,631 from Age 71-90. Both the level and varying rate illustrations assume 100% Basic Coverage.
