This powerful, “hands-free” allocation feature available only with Athene Performance Elite® fixed indexed annuities is the easy way to diversify indices for a well-balanced approach.

1 A Fixed Strategy with a 1-year guarantee is also available. 
2 Withdrawals and surrender may be subject to federal and state income tax and, except under certain circumstances, will be subject to an IRS penalty if taken prior to age 59½. Withdrawals are not credited with index interest in the year they are taken. Withdrawals in excess of the free amount are subject to a Withdrawal Charge, Market Value Adjustment and any Premium Bonus Vesting Adjustment which may result in the loss of principal. In Oregon, the Performance Elite 15 Plus Enhanced Free Withdrawal amount is 0% in the first year and increases to 10% beginning in the second contract year.
3 If a Withdrawal of less than the Enhanced Free Withdrawal amount is paid in any Contract Year, the Enhanced Free Withdrawal amount in the future Contract Years will not be increased. If a Withdrawal is taken in the current Contract Year, the Enhanced Free Withdrawal amount is not available during the next Contract Year.
4After the fourth Contract Year, the Cash Surrender Value will never be less than the premium minus premium taxes (if applicable) and prior withdrawals, including Withdrawal Charges, Premium Bonus Vesting Adjustment and Market Value Adjustment on those withdrawals.
