(a) This section applies to a plan of life insurance:
(1) that provides that the insurer will determine future premiums based on future experience estimates; or
(2) the minimum values of which cannot be determined under the applicable provisions of §§ 16-303 through 16-309 of this subtitle.
(b) The Commissioner must be satisfied that:
(1) the benefits provided under the plan described in subsection (a) of this section are substantially as favorable to policyholders and insureds as the minimum benefits otherwise required by §§ 16-303 through 16-309 of this subtitle; and
(2) the benefits and the pattern of premiums under the plan do not mislead prospective policyholders or insureds.
(c) The cash surrender values and paid-up nonforfeiture benefits provided by a plan subject to this section may not be less than the minimum values and benefits required for the plan calculated by a method consistent with the principles of this subtitle, as determined by regulations adopted by the Commissioner.
