*Male rates apply to all coverage issued to Montana residents, regardless of person's sex.
Child(ren): $10,000 coverage for each child: $.69 monthly (one premium covers all dependent children).
Premiums are guaranteed to remain level for the first 10 years of coverage. Then, if still eligible, you may reapply for 10-year level rates then in effect for a subsequent 10-year term; rates for the subsequent 10-year term would be determined based on the insured person's then current age, health and tobacco/nicotine use and guaranteed for 10 years. If you or your spouse are not approved for a subsequent 10-year term of guaranteed rates or do not apply for a subsequent 10-year term, coverage will continue in force on a non-guaranteed basis with increasing premiums as the insured ages.
Rates after 10 years can be changed by New York Life on any premium due date and on any date which benefits are changed, but it can only do so on a classwide basis. For example, a class is a group of insureds with the same issue age and gender.
