As our clients live longer, there is a greater probability that they will need some form of Long-Term Care.
Statistics have shown that our clients will be living longer in retirement.1
Over the age of 65, what percentage of people will need some form of Long-Term Care?

The sobering reality
FACT: 70% of people over age 65 will need long-term care1
1. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, September 2008
70%You just witnessed an exercise that, according to the statistics, each one of us could experience over the course of our lives. The question is, “Will your clients be part of the 30% of people over age 65 who may not need Long-Term Care or will your clients be one of the 70% of people over age 65 who will have to
face the sobering reality that you will need Long-Term Care?” We all would like to think that we can be part of the 30% but more and more people are being afflicted with conditions requiring Long-Term Care.

Certificate of Deposits (CDs), Money Market Accounts, Savings Account and Fixed Annuities are all different product types and as such have different risk and suitability profiles. CDs and Saving Accounts are typically bank products and are FDIC insured up to certain dollar values. Money Market Accounts are securities and are not FDIC insured and although these funds seek to preserve the value of an investment at $1.00 per share, there is no guarantee they will maintain this value. Fixed Annuities are insurance products intended for retirement or other long-term needs.

Where is the money your clients plan to use?
These assets usually end up being invested in CDs, savings and money market accounts or fixed annuities. However, in a low interest rate environment, returns on these types of products can be lower than expected. Other options such as stocks, bonds, mutual
funds, variable annuities, or real estate could potentially provide greater returns but typically require exposure to greater market risk which your clients may not be willing to take. 3

Is there another way?
Fixed Annuity
Benefits• Interest crediting• Income options• Tax-deferral• Remaining
contract value passes as death benefit proceeds
Fixed annuities have been an attractive option for many investors looking for a guaranteed interest rate, a choice of payment options, tax-deferral, and the opportunity to pass any remaining contract value to their beneficiaries through a death benefit without the complications of probate.
Guarantees are based on the claims-paying ability of Forethought Life Insurance Company and subject to compliance with benefit rules.

Long-Term Care Benefits• Potential to
multiply the contract value
But as we saw, rates are low so you may need a hybrid solution. Even if rates rebound, how long would it take you to build the value of your annuity two or three times?

ForeCareSM Fixed Annuity : A fixed annuity for the 21st centuryWe are pleased to introduce you to our ForeCare Fixed Annuity. We call ForeCare a Fixed Annuity for the 21st century because we have added an enhancement option specifically designed to help your clients pay for Long-Term Care Expenses which could potentially have a catastrophic impact on their retirement funds.
As people are living longer in the 21st Century and the probability for Long-Term Care increases, our ForeCare Fixed Annuity provides Long-Term Care coverage equal to 2 or 3 times the contract value. We have created a simple process to help you determine if ForeCare could be a key component of your clients’ retirement protection programs. If ForeCare is right for them, they can find out if they are approved quickly through a simple ½ hour process.

ForeCare will provide coverage of 2x or 3x the Contract Value for long term care expenses. The multiple, known as the ForeCare Multiplier, is determined through simple underwriting. Expenses are first reimbursed from the contract value, without withdrawal charges. Once the contract value is exhausted, the Multiplier kicks in, providing additional resources for expenses, all tax-free.
ForeCare Facts: Up to 3x for LTC expenses
• Up to 3x the contract value for qualified long-term care expenses1
• More value accessible to help defray the effect of long-term care costs on family and finances
• Uses tax-deferred dollars to provide tax-free benefits

These benefits are only available to use for a qualified long-term care benefit and will not become part of the contract value or the death benefit. Withdrawals, other than for qualified long-term care expenses, will adversely affect the amount of coverage in the future.

Long-term care rider charges are not taxed as distributions
Tax-Deferred Growth
Existing non-qualified fixed annuities may be exchanged tax-free for a ForeCare Fixed Annuity by utilizing IRC section 1035*
ForeCare Tax Benefits
Benefits received for qualified long-term care expenses are tax-free
*Repositioning of assets from an existing fixed annuity contract into a ForeCare fixed annuity contract may not be suitable for all clients. Clients should carefully consider factors such as remaining surrender charge schedule, possible market value adjustments and any other charges before determining if repositioning and/or exchanging of an existing annuity contract is right for their particular situation. State insurance replacement regulations may also apply.
