MVP Segregated Funds Maturity Date and Maturity Process
MVP Segregated Funds Maturity Date and Maturity Process
This summary is designed to assist you in understanding the MVP maturity procedures.
Maturity Maturity Date The Maturity Date is the date on which the Owner of the contract is entitled to receive a Maturity Benefit of a maturing contract. The Maturity Date was elected by the client at the time the contract was established, based on the rules outlined within the applicable contract, and varies by plan type and contract version. The Maturity Date is the later of: ? the Maturity Date elected by the client under the terms of the contract ? the extended Maturity Date. The last possible Maturity Date: ? for a registered Contract:
? the final date permitted under the applicable legislation but not later than the annuitant's 90th birthday; ? for a non-registered Contract:
? is the annuitant's 85th birthday for the 1987 and 1993 versions of the contract ? is the annuitant's 90th birthday for the 1996 and 1997 versions of the contract. Once the annuitant has reached the last possible Maturity Date, the contract will automatically terminate and the Maturity Benefit becomes payable. For a RRIF/LIF/LRIF contract that does not have an annuitization date mandated by the applicable pension legislation, the Maturity Date is the annuitant's 90th birthday.
Maturity Benefit
On the Maturity Date, if the client elects to receive the Maturity Benefit, the Maturity Benefit is calculated as the greater of:
(a) the aggregate of the value of all Units under the contract, calculated as of the Valuation date following the Maturity Date; and
(b) the Guaranteed Maturity Benefit. The calculation of the Guaranteed Maturity Benefit varies depending on the MVP contract. An outline of the Guaranteed Maturity Benefit calculation for each contract is included at the end of this summary.
The "Guaranteed Benefit" Payment
If the client elects to receive their Maturity Benefit and the guaranteed amount exceeds the market value on the Maturity Date, the difference (the Guaranteed Benefit) will be deposited into CI Money Market Fund at no cost to the client. This transaction will occur prior to the execution of any maturity settlement option when the client is electing to receive the Maturity Benefit.
Clients may extend the Maturity Date as per the rules outlined in the contract. The Guaranteed Benefit is only payable upon termination of the contract ? for example, following a full withdrawal. Therefore, no Guaranteed Benefit will be payable upon extension. Clients that have reached their latest possible contract maturity do not have the option to extend their Maturity Date.
Maturity Settlement
Maturity Settlement Options
The following options are available to clients upon their contract Maturity Date:
1. Transfer the Maturity Benefit to a CI-managed product that the client is eligible to purchase. To complete the transaction, please submit the required application form.
2. Transfer the Maturity Benefit to a product offered by Sun Life or another financial institution that the client is eligible to purchase. To complete the transaction, the applicable transfer form is required.
3. Request a cash payment (excluding locked-in plans). Withholding taxes will be charged, if applicable.
Maturity Date Extension Options
Unless CI receives alternate instructions prior to the Maturity Date, the Maturity Date will be extended to the maximum age permitted under the contract.
The Guaranteed Benefit (if applicable) is not paid when the contract is extended. Instead, the contract will be assessed on the extended Maturity Date to determine the Maturity Benefit.
If the client wishes to change their Maturity Date to something other than the default Maturity Date, client-signed documentation must be received prior to the Maturity Date.

Submitting Manual Maturity Instructions
To complete your client's request for any of the maturity options, CI must receive the instructions along with the appropriate application and transfer form before the Maturity Date. All maturity settlement instructions should clearly indicate that the transaction should be processed on the Maturity Date.
Before submitting maturity instructions, please ensure you contact your distributor to determine if there are any additional requirements.
Submitting Maturity Instructions Electronically via FundSERV
Maturity instructions can be submitted electronically via FundSERV up to 60 days prior to any applicable Maturity Date. Wire order trade instructions for maturity amounts will remain pending until the Maturity Date when they will settle on T+1. Please contact your distributor for further information on placing wire order transactions for maturity amounts. Any trades placed either manually or electronically after the maturity instructions have been received will be processed and may impact the Maturity Benefit.
In some cases, the automatic payout at the Maturity Date may differ as a result of certain legal, regulatory or product requirements. These exceptional circumstances include, but are not limited to, assigned policies, and locked-in policies.
Tax Treatment of Maturity "Guarantee Benefit" Payments
Non-registered Policies: Any Guaranteed Benefit will be treated as capital gains and reported to the contract holder on a T3 slip for the year in which the guarantee benefit payment was made. This may be offset by any capital losses realized at the time of a withdrawal.
Registered Policies: Any Guaranteed Benefit included as part of the redemption proceeds is reported as income to the contract holder/annuitant on a T4 RSP/RIF slip.
