D.
As used in this regulation, “Period table” means a table of mortality rates
applicable to a given calendar year (the Period).
E.
As used in this regulation, “Generational mortality table” means a mortality table
containing a set of mortality rates that decrease for a given age from one year to
the next based on a combination of a Period table and a projection scale
containing rates of mortality improvement.
F.
As used in this regulation “2012 IAR Table” means that Generational mortality
table developed by the Society of Actuaries Committee on Life Insurance
Research and containing rates, qx2012+n, derived from a combination of the 2012
IAM Period Table and Projection Scale G2, using the methodology stated in
Section 6.
G.
As used in this regulation, “2012 Individual Annuity Mortality Period Life (2012
IAM Period) Table” means the Period table containing loaded mortality rates for
calendar year 2012. This table contains rates, qx2012, developed by the Society
of Actuaries Committee on Life Insurance Research and is shown in Appendices
I-II.
H.
As used in this regulation, “Projection Scale G2 (Scale G2)” is a table of annual
rates, G2x, of mortality improvement by age for projecting future mortality rates
beyond calendar year 2012. This table was developed by the Society of Actuaries

Section 4
Individual Annuity or Pure Endowment Contracts
A.
R.I. Gen. Laws § 27-4.5-4(a) and (b) shall apply as provided in those sections,
except that, as provided in R.I. Gen. Laws § 27-4.5-4(c), the following Section
4(B) shall apply to the special benefits described therein.
B.
The 1983 Table "a" without projection is to be used for determining the minimum
standards of valuation for an individual annuity or pure endowment contract
issued on or after January 1, 2000, solely when the contract is based on life
contingencies and is issued to fund periodic benefits arising from:
Page 3 of 8
Reg. # 94
(1)
Settlements of various forms of claims pertaining to court settlements or
out of court settlements from tort actions;
(2)
Settlements involving similar actions such as worker's compensation
claims; or
(3)
Settlements of long term disability claims where a temporary or life
annuity has been used in lieu of continuing disability payments.
C.
As provided in R.I. Gen. Laws §27-4.5-4(b); The 2012 IAR is adopted as the
standard for individual annuities issued on or after January 1, 2015, with the
exception of the products covered by B. above.
Section 5
Application of the 1994 GAR Table
In using the 1994 GAR Table, the mortality rate for a person age x in year (1994
+ n) is calculated as follows:
qx 1994+n = qx 1994 (1 - AAx)n
where qx 1994 and AAx s are as specified in the 1994 GAR Table.
Section 6.
Application of the 2012 IAR Mortality Table
In using the 2012 IAR Mortality Table, the mortality rate for a person age x in year (2012
+ n) is calculated as follows:
q_x^(2012+n)=q_x^2012 〖(1-〖G2〗_x)〗^n
The resulting qx 2012+n shall be rounded to three decimal places per 1,000, e.g., 0.741
deaths per 1,000. Also, the rounding shall occur according to the formula above, starting
at the 2012 period table rate.
For example, for a male age 30, qx2012 = 0.741.
qx 2013 = 0.741 * (1 – 0.010) ^ 1 = 0.73359, which is rounded to 0.734.
qx 2014 = 0.741 * (1 – 0.010) ^ 2 = 0.7262541, which is rounded to 0.726.
A method leading to incorrect rounding would be to calculate qx 2014 as qx 2013 * (1 –
0.010), or 0.734 * 0.99 = 0.727. It is incorrect to use the already rounded qx 2013 to
calculate qx 2014.
Section 7
Severability
If any provision of this regulation or its application to any person or
circumstances is for any reason held to be invalid, the remainder of the Regulation and
the application of its provisions to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected.
