“Determinable elements” means elements that are derived from processes or methods that are guaranteed at issue and not subject to insurer discretion, but in which the values or amounts cannot be determined until some point after issue. These elements include the premiums, credited interest rates (including any bonus), benefits, values, non-interest based credits, charges or elements of formulas used to determine any of these. These elements may be described as guaranteed but not determined at issue. An element is considered determinable if it was calculated from underlying determinable elements only, or from both determinable and guaranteed elements.(3)
“Free look” means the number of days immediately after delivery of the contract in which the contract owner has to examine the contract and decide to return it to get the purchase payment returned penalty free. May also be referred to as “Right to Examine.”(4)

“Guaranteed elements” means the premiums, credited interest rates (including any bonus), benefits, values, non-interest based credits, charges or elements of formulas used to determine any of these, that are guaranteed and determined at issue. An element is considered guaranteed if all of the underlying elements that go into its calculation are guaranteed.(7)
“Non-guaranteed elements” means the premiums, credited interest rates (including any bonus), benefits, values, non-interest based credits, charges or elements of formulas used to determine any of these, that are subject to company discretion and are not guaranteed at issue.
