Subject: PPPVUL Product Information
Jeffrey-
As a follow up to our discussions, I wanted to share additional information on the Evergreen PPVUL policy
with you.
Summary information regarding a $1 billion investment in two different policies is attached. The first is a
$500 million 7702(a) compliant policy (Kingswood), and the second is a $500 million 7702(g) compliant
policy (Cedarwood). You'll see that breakeven is achieved in the year following issuance. By year 20, the
after-tax value of the Evergreen policies exceeds taxable account performance by $1.4 billion ($3.8 billion
vs. $2.4 billion). By year 30, the Evergreen policies outperform the taxable account by $3 billion ($7.4
billion vs. $3.4 billion).
The above numbers assume the following fees and charges.
Upfront fees consist of the following:
-
Upfront charges: $11.5 million (2% on first $100 million, 1.5% on next $100 million, 1% thereafter).
Note consists of approximately $500,000 in legal fees with the balance allocated between the party arranging
for the insured lives and a sales charge
Issue fee: $3.9 million ($300 per life)
DAC tax: $7 million (70 bps)
Ongoing fees consist of the following:
EFTA00392498
Cost of insurance: charged at standard rates based on the age/sex of underlying insureds
fee: 65 bps per annum
Administrative fee: $100 per life
Our attorneys at Mayer Brown have handled the legal work associated with the structure. In order to provide
an overview of the review and analysis performed to date, I attach a legal summary containing the following:
I) Summary of Legal Opinions: Provides an overview of tax, insurable interest and ERISA opinions that
will be provided at closing. The opinions are not yet written, but this reflects the scope
2) 7702(g) Opinion Overview: Provides an overview of the legal opinion which will be provided in
connection with the Cedarwood 7702(g) product and the relevant legal analysis
2) Wal-Mart Case: Provides an overview of a well-known case that concerned the issues that arose when
Wal-Mart purchased life insurance policies (commonly referred to as janitor insurance) on the lives of its
employees. The memo explains how the Evergreen programs do not violate the legal principles described in
that case, including insurable interest considerations
3) Recovery Statutes: Explains why the risk is remote that an insured or his estate could bring a successful
claim under a recovery statute
4) STOLI: Provides an overview of Stranger Owned Life Insurance and its relevance to insurable interest
laws. The memo explains how Evergreen is not STOLI and does not violate STOLI legislation
5) Public Policy and Insurable Interest: Provides a summary of the conclusions in the prior three memos
with respect to insurable interest and public policy considerations)
I think you'll find there are no comparable products in the marketable that allow for the acquisition of such a
sizable amount of insurance, except for the standard 7702(g) policies. The Cedarwood 7702(g) product does
offer a major structural advantage to its competitors in that it allows for annual distributions over the life of
the policy.
As I mentioned, Withers is familiar with the structure, and Jim Brockway has spent the most time on it. We
look forward to discussing the above in more detail and are, of course, happy to answer any questions or
provide more information.
Regards,
Louis
