(1) In event of default. Any cash surrender value available under the policy in the event of default in a premium payment due on any policy anniversary, whether or not required by Section 38-63-520, must be an amount not less than the excess, if any, of the present value on such anniversary of the future guaranteed benefits which would have been provided for by the policy, including any existing paid-up additions, if there had been no default, over the sum of (a) the then present value of the adjusted premiums as defined in Sections 38-63-570 to 38-63-600, corresponding to premiums which would have fallen due on and after such anniversary, and (b) the amount of indebtedness to the insurer on the policy.
Any policy issued on or after the operative date of Section 38-63-600, as defined therein, which provides supplemental life insurance or annuity benefits at the option of the insured and for an identifiable additional premium by rider or supplemental policy provision, the cash surrender value referred to in the first paragraph of this section must be an amount not less than the sum of the cash surrender value as defined in that paragraph for an otherwise similar policy issued at the same age without the rider or supplemental policy provision and the cash surrender value as defined in that paragraph for a policy which provides only the benefits otherwise provided by the rider or supplemental policy provision.
Any family policy issued on or after the operative date of Section 38-63-600, as defined therein, which defines a primary insured and provides term insurance on the life of the spouse of the primary insured expiring before the spouse's age of seventy-one, the cash surrender value referred to in the first paragraph of this section must be an amount not less than the sum of the cash surrender value as defined in that paragraph for an otherwise similar policy issued at the same age without the term insurance on the life of the spouse and the cash surrender value as defined in that paragraph for a policy which provides only the benefits otherwise provided by the term insurance on the life of the spouse.
(2) On paid-up policies. Any cash surrender value available within thirty days after any policy anniversary under any policy paid up by completion of all premium payments or any policy continued under any paid-up nonforfeiture benefit, whether or not required by Section 38-63-620, must be an amount not less than the present value on such anniversary of the future guaranteed benefits provided for by the policy, including any existing paid-up additions, decreased by any indebtedness to the insurer on the policy.
