ROYAL MACCABEES’ RESPONSE TO PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION TO RECONSIDER Defendant Royal Maccabees Life Insurance Company [“Royal Maccabees”], by its attorneys, states as follows for its response to plaintiffs’ motion to file a fourth amended complaint: Introduction Since plaintifis’ claims are barred by the voluntary payment defense, their motion for reconsideration of this Court’s determination that their claims are so barred should be denied. Argument L aoe i , Ce ES eee Lee Court's Di 0 ‘The “purpose of a motion for reconsideration is to apprise the trial court of newly discovered evidence, a change in the law, or errors in the court’s earlier application of the law.” Earley Metals, Inc. v. Barber Colman Co., 269 Ill App.3d 104, 206 Ill.Dec. 712, 719 (Ist Dist. 1994); Gardner v. ‘Navistar International Transportation Corp,, 213 Ill. App.3d 242, 157 IlLDec. 88, 92 (4th Dist. 1991). In this case, plaintiffs’ motion. econsideration really [a] reiterates tin. lier arguments before the court, and [b] erroneously attempts to assert new arguments, which could have been but were not previously raised in the briefs and oral argument before this Court ruled that the named plaints claims are barred by the voluntary payment doctrine. As such, the motion to reconsider does not bring newly discovered evidence to the court’s attention, indicate a change in the law or demonstrate that this Court misapplied the law. Therefore, plaintiffs’ motion for reconsideration must be denied. For example, the prior briefs raised the same issues about the sufficiency of the named plaintifis’ knowledge and opportunity to have paid payments under protest. These issues were discussed at oral arguments as well. Plaintiffs merely try to re-argue the sufficiency of the disclosure, regarding “taxes” and AIDS-related deaths, under the voluntary payment defense. Plaintiffs now argue there was a mistake of fact because they did not have full knowledge of the exact mortality ‘change and the reference to a new tax in the notice was purportedly misleading and fraudulent. [Mo. Reconsid, at 8], Regardless of whether plaintifis knew the exact AIDS related death figures, they knew that they were being charged, and could have questioned the increase if they had wanted to do so. As this Court found in its Opinion at page 9, this is sufficient knowledge under the voluntary payment doctrine. See Section IV below. The policy cancellation and surrender changes raised by plaintiffs [Mo. Reconsid. at 2] are a false issue. Regarding whether there was “compulsion” and whether “it would cost more or be difficult to obtain new insurance," even the proposed complaint, much less the current complaint which is to be considered on a motion to reconsider, has no allegations that such pressure was the motivation for the plaintiffS to make payments and does not allege that the payments were for a necessity oflife. In the prior oral argument, the defendant noted that there was no duress with regard to these payments since the pleintiffS could: (1) pay under protest (making a protest to the Department of Insurance); (2) not pay, and make protest during the grace period during which the policy remains in effect without the insured making payments; or (3) surrender the policy and seek 2 ” insurance elsewhere.” Op. a. “Jaintifs do not allege they attempte.._egotiate the surrender charge, because they never sought to do so, and therefore that charge cannot constitute duress Moreover, “.. in oral arguments the plaintiffs admitted that they did not allege that even one of the named plaintiffs had attempted to obtain different insurance and had either been denied or charged a higher rate for it, Op. at 4. “The existence of a reasonable altemative source precludes any arguments about whether a particular product or service constitutes 2 necessity..plaintiffs admit that they could have surrendered their policies; and not one of the named plaintiffs attempted to obtain different insurance and was denied coverage or charged a higher rate..” Op. at 9 Although plaintiffs refer to possible cancellation or surrender charges, their policies" all explain that, even when policy accumulation values are insufficient to pay the monthly expense charge, there is a 61 day grace period during which the policy death protection still exists. Furthermore, the policies provide that the policyholder can reinstate a lapsed policy during a five year petiod, as long as insurability requirements are met, In addition, the policies show that the surrender charge decreases as the policy remains in force. Thus, plaintiffs could have protested without suffering any loss, including due to surrender charges. Even if the surrender charge might be considered as possible duress under different facts and pleadings, they cannot be duress under the facts and pleadings in this case. Plaintiffs also assert that Dr. Nassos, Mary Ann Nassos and James Miller should not be barred by the voluntary payment doctrine because they owned "single premium policies" which they purchased with a “one time, lump sum payment" that was made before 1991, when Royal Maccabees notified policyholders about the Cost of Insurance rate increase. This is not correct. The fact is that none of the plaints purchased a single premium policy, which is a spetific type of life insurance product that permits only one payment at time of issue and has fully paid-up, guaranteed death ‘The policies are exhibits to the complaints and facts shown by exhibits control over inconsistent allegations, FH. Prince & Co. v. Towers Financial Corp., 275 Ill. App.3d 792. 656, N.B.2d 142 (Ist Dist. 1995); People ex rel, Hartigan v. E & E Hauling, 218 TL App.3d 28, 577 NE2d 1262, 1273 (ist Dist. 1991) benefits and cash values. Thi. is well known to named plaintiff Jai... _iller who was the very agent who sold these policies to the plaintiff, one of whom is his own wife. In fact, plaintiffs, through Mr. Miller, each purchased flexible premium universal life insurance policies (hereafter called "flexible policies"), which permit the policyholder to make premium deposits at any time in any amount (subject to federal tax premium limitations on life insurance policies and the minimum requirements specified in the policy). Under this type of policy, the policyholder makes premium deposits into an accumulation value, from which the insurance company deducts certain policy charges each month (including the Cost of Insurance or mortality cost, administrative expenses and policy fees or loads, depending on how the policy is designed). All of the policy's charges and any additional premium deposits are reported to the policy owner on a regular basis through the polioy’s Annual Statement ‘The fact that the plaintiffs made one premium deposit before they were notified about the Cost of Insurance rate increase in 1991, and then made no further deposits thereafter, means nothing as far as the voluntary payment doctrine is concerned because, before the rate increase went into effect, they each owned flexible policies, not single premium policies. These policies had accumulation values from which the Cost of Insurance was being continuously deducted each month by Royal Maccabees. In flexible policies, the Cost of Insurance charges and other policy costs are not "paid” ‘out of any one premium deposit, lie they are in @ fully paid-up single premium policy. Instead, they are deducted continuously, regardless of when policyholders choose to make premium deposits. Consequently, plaintiffs are relying on the wrong element about their policies to try to evade the voluntary payment doctrine. It is not the timing of their premium deposits that matters here because the Cost of Insurance charges are not paid once out of a flexible policy's premium, like they are in a single premium policy. The policies are called “Flexible Premium Adjustable Life” policies, and explain the “Adjustable Benefit Amount...Flexible Premium payments", as well as that there was an initial premium and monthly deduction of expense charges included for COI. The notice of the COI " increase was part of an annua — iement, which also shows that the t., © charge is a monthly deduction. In this case, Cost of Insurance charges were being deducted out of the accumulation values in plaintiff flexible policies before and after the Cost of Insurance rate increased occurred. The real clement of timing that matters is when Royal Maccabees notified the plaintiffs about the increased Cost of Insurance rates that were being deducted from their policies’ accumulation values (which notice was contained in each plaintiff 1991-92 Annual Statement). It was at that point that plaintifts had the opportunity to protest and avoid imposition of the voluntary payment doctrine, In its Opinion, the Court recognized this when it held that it did not matter when and how the plaintiffs made premium deposits to their flexible policies: “...it matters not whether. the premium is increased or the premium remains constant with the greater amount being allocated to the ‘COY' and lesser amount being allocated to the plaintiffs’ reserve accounts," {accumulation values], Op. at 8 ‘Therefore, this issue is not a basis for reconsideration ‘This contention, about whether there was payment, was considered and rejected by the Court in its prior ruling: “The plaintiffs next claim that the voluntary payment doctrine does not apply because there was no payment...no separate payments [Op. at 4]. . ‘The defendants ...point out that a greater portion of the premiums paid for by the plaintiffs were applied to the cost of insurance instead of becoming part of their cash accumulation; or, the costs were paid out of the deductions taken from the policies’ cash accumulations.” Op. at 7 Plaintiffs have not alleged that no single premium funds went into their accumulation accounts and then were not treated over time just as annual payment funds were, ie. the premiums were deducted periodically as due including the increased COI. Plaintiffs cannot make such allegations in good faith because they would be blatantly untrue. ‘The issue of whether payment was made is no different now than it was when the Court rendered its Opinion. ‘Thus, this issue is not a basis for reconsideration. Furthermore, a motiv.. _ -econsider cannot seek reconsiderai... sed on matters which ‘were not raised in the complaint which was pending at the time of this Court's ruling. See Continental Casualty v, Security Ins. Co. of Hartford, infra at 7. Plaintifis' erroneous factual assertion about payment is not found in the third amended complaint, and is contrary to the actual allegations of that pleading {"As a direct and proximate result of Defendant's [alleged] breach of contract...out of the premiums paid, or policy earnings, the Defendant charged more to the cost of insurance rates..." (Third Amended Complaint at (20)]. There is no question that the plaintiffs were charged for the increased cost of insurance for the reasons in the 1991 notice, and that notice was given of those charges in the 1991 premium notice. Although plaintiffs incorrectly characterize the premium payments by three of them, the facts were known to plaintiffs before the prior brief’, oral argument and ruling by this Court. Moreover, the prior briefs discussed the fact that some of the increased COT payments came from deductions out of the accumulated values of policies. Thus, even, if plaintiffs characterization was correct, reconsideration should be denied. U. Plaintiffs! Argument That The Voluntary Payment Doctrine Does Not Bar Equitable Ral Shonld Be Reesed Recast s morons Ras a ind Amand ier, Te Ui Ey ‘The Allegations Of The Thi i Complaint, And Is Incorrect As_A Matter Of Law Plaintiffs contend, for the very first time in their motion for reconsideration, that this Court's ruling should be reconsidered because it will deny them the opportunity to pursue equitable relief in the future. However, plaintiffs completely ignore the fact that they have not sought any such relief in this case under the pleadings pending at the time of the ruling in question. Rather, in their third amended complaint -- the pleading at issue in defendant's motion to dismiss and the subject of this court's Memorandum of Opinion -- plaintiffs have pleaded an action for an alleged breach of contract, for which they (and the proposed class) are secking monetary damages and declaratory relief that “Defendant has breached its contract....” Third Amended Complaint, prayer for relief at (B). Hence, by their own pleading, plaintifis have recognized that they have an adequate remedy at law, namely the recoupment of moneys paw _3¢m to defendant (assuming argue...0 there is any merit to Plaintiffs' claim, which there is not). As such, plaintiffs are not entitled to equitable relief for the claims addressed in their third amended complaint, and their motion to reconsider should be denied. Plaintifs' new concer for what may happen in the future cannot relate back to the allegations made in the Third Amended Complaint. This new concern is not properly the basis for a motion to reconsider because it was not raised on the pleadings filed prior to the dismissal by the Court. Plaintifi' contention, that "{t]he complaint should not have been dismissed even if plaintiffs claims for damages is barred by the voluntary payment doctrine because they may obtain equitable relief preventing Maccabees from collecting these [alleged] unauthorized charges in the future" [Motion to Reconsider at p. 11], is an issue that falls outside the scope of the third amended complaint, defendant's motion to dismiss and the underlying facts and legal analysis of this court's Memorandum of Opinion. Simply stated, plaintiffS cannot, on a motion to reconsider, raise matters which they did not raise in their third amended complaint, See Continental Casualty Co. v. Security Ins, Co, of Hartford, 279 Il App.3d 815, 818, 665 N.E.2d 374 (Ist Dist. 1996), in which the court declined to consider an argument raised for the first time in a motion for reconsideration, holding that: “Motions for reconsideration are designed to bring to the court's attention newly discovered evidence that was unavailable at the time of the original hearing, changes in existing law or errors in the court's application of the law." Ina similar vein, in Kanter & Eisenberg v, Madison Associates 116 Ill.2d 506, 508 N.E.2d 1053 (1987) [a case cited by this Court in its Opinion at 3)], the Illinois Supreme Court dismissed the plaintiff's concer that its legal remedy was inadequate because of the possibility of successive actions between the parties. The Illinois Supreme Court stated that argument "had nothing to do with the salient question," which involved the existence of irreparable harm prior to the entry of the court’s final decision, 508 Ill, Dec. at 1057.. So, too, plaintiffs' new concern over being able to obtain equitable relief for “unauth.s charges in the future" -- which a 1 ihe basis of the third amended complaint -- cannot be properly raised in a motion to reconsider. Tn any event, the cases cited by plaintiffs at page 12 of their motion to reconsider, Kanter, Klesath v. Barber, 4 Il. App.3d 86, 280 N.B.2d 283 (3d Dist. 1972) and Cragg v. Levinson, 238 Til 69, 87 N.E. 121 (1909), are not helpful to plaintifs' position. Kanter involved issues about use of property consisting of an office lease. Klesath involved a farm lease. And, Cragg involved encroachments upon a residential lot by an adjoining lot owner. In all these cases, monetary damages were an inadequate remedy and there was ireparable harm that included the need for successive suits Both Kleseth and Cragg concern on-going and threatened continuing trespasses on each of the plaintiffs! respective properties. The court in Cragg also noted that when the threatened repeated trespasses did result in such litigation between the same parties, it first is necessary that the complainant's title be admitted or established in a prior action at law. In other words, equitable relief from successive actions required that a defendant admit to the on-going wrong or a prior finding of such by a court of law. Neither element is present in the instant case.. These cases provide no authority for the claim that the voluntary payment doctrine is not fully applicable to the facts alleged in the third amended complaint as found by this Court. This Court's Memorandum of Opinion demonstrates that the pleadings and motion papers, including the extensive briefs submitted to the court by the parties, were carefully and fully considered. The plaintiffs are not permitted to rehash arguments the court has rejected or to erect new arguments not based on the pleadings before the court. This court should reject their attempts to do s0 in the motion to reconsider. Tn addition, plaintifis filed to allege facts supporting such injunctive relief, or to even request such relief, in the third amended complaint. It is axiomatic, ...that an injunction is an extraordinary remedy which may be granted when the plaintiff establishes that his remedy at law is inadequate and he will suffer irreparable harm without the injunctive relief" (Sadat v. American Motors Corp. 104 8 Ill.2d 105, 470 N.E.2d 977, . (1984). Moreover, "[a] well-pi. 1 complaint praying for injunctive relief must contain on its face a clear right to relief and state facts which establish the right to such relief in a positive, certain and precise manner.” (Sadat, 470N.E.2¢ at 1002). Further, “these factual allegations must specifically establish the inadequacy of legal remedy and the irreparable injury the plaintiff will suffer without the injunction." (Sadat 470 N.E.2d at 1002). Yet, despite plaintiffs’ current belated efforts to transform their breach of contract claim into that of an action for equitable relief, plaintiffy’ third amended complaint does not come close to satisfying these pleading requirements for injunctive relief. Rather, the essence of plaintiffs! claim is found in {20 of their third amended complaint, in which plaints state that they and the alleged class were damaged solely as "a direct and proximate result of Defendant’ [alleged] breach of contract," in that “out of the premiums paid, or policy earnings, the Defendant charged more to the cost of insurance rates .." These allegations refer to a monetary issue, and a past monetary issue at that. Plaintiffs ignore several of the most fundamental principles about injunctions. ILP "Injunctions": Sec. 16 at 267: "It should be shown that there isa clear and palpable violation of the plaintiffs rights or that the relief is necessary in order to prevent a definite violation of a lawful right by the defendant." Sec. 18 at 271: ...it must also appear that the injury is of an irreparable nature...an injury is irreparable when the injured party cannot be adequately compensated in damages or when the damages cannot be measured by any certain pecuniary standard.”. Sec. 20 at 273: “An injunction will not be granted where an adequate legal remedy exists, since an order to authorize an injunction there should be something particular or special in the case for which a court of law cannot afford adequate redress.” Sec. $1 at 299: “On the other hand, rights of property will not be protected by injunctive relief where there is another adequate remedy...[including] money damages for conversion.” Based on these principals of injunctive relief, although Royal Maccabees continues to bill and collect the COI charges, injunctive or other equitable relief is not appropriate under this motion to reconsider. Furthermore, the thin. ; 1ded complaint contained no refer. < , or even a hint that, plaintiffs were seeking injunctive relief. Plaintiffs incorrectly assert that their boilerplate request in the third amended complaint for "Such other and further relief as shall be just", amounts to a request for injunctive relief. Their reliance on Gleicher v. University Health Sciences, 224 Il. App.3d 77, 586 ‘N.E.2d 418 (Ist Dist. 1991), cited at page 11 of Plaintiff's Motion to Reconsider, is totally misplaced In Gleicher, the defendant was appealing the entry of a mandatory, permanent injunction that required it to honor its contract to appoint the plaintiff, a physician, to its professional staff. On appeal, the defendant argued that equitable relief was improper because plaintiff, in his complaint, had only sought damages. The Appellate Court held: "he purpose of a permanent injunction is to extend or maintain the status quo indefinitely after a hearing on the merits where it has been shown that the plaintiff is suffering irreparable harm and there is no adequate remedy at law." (166 Ill. Dec. 460, at 467) ‘The Appellate Court found that this requisite standard for equitable relief had been satisfied. Itheld there was sufficient evidence, including a judicial admission made by defendant in its answer, ‘to establish that, without the intervention of equity, plaintiff would suffer irreparable harm for which ‘there was no adequate remedy at law, It was in this factual context, including the defendant's judicial admission, that the Appellate Court also held that the prayer for relief in the plaintiff's complaint which sought "such other and further relief as shall be just," (166 Ill.Dec. at 467) was a sufficient basis to award equity. However, the Court went on to temper its decision on this point, noting that, *...where other reliefs sought, the court shall protect the adverse party against prejudice by reason of surprise." (166 Ill.Dec. 467). The Court found that based upon the facts of the case and relief granted, the defendant was not surprised or prejudiced. Such facts are not found in the instant case. Except now in its Motion to Reconsider, plaintiffs have never prayed for, requested or even suggested a need for injunctive relief, Plaintiffs! -entire focus has been on recovering premium payments previously made. Moreover, defendant has 10 never made an admission agatuox rest evidencing the need for equita...._f. Most importantly, unlike in Gleicher, there has been no pleading or showing that plaintiffs have or will suffer irreparable harm for which there is no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, the Gleicher decision is not applicable to the facts and issues at hand. While plaintiffs’ third amended complaint has a boilerplate ‘equitable prayer for relief, they never specifically raised the issue of equitable relief in their complaint or in their responses to defendant's motion to dismiss. Even assuming that plaintiffs had properly pled an action for such equitable relief in the context of the complaint itself (which they have not) or merely in their prayer for relief (which would be ineffective), the outcome of the instant motion would be the same because the voluntary payment doctrine also applies to claims for injunctive relief, In Corbett v. Devon Bank, 12 Ill. App.3d 559, 299 N.E.2d 521 (Ist Dist. 1973), the Appellate Court upheld the application of the voluntary payment doctrine in a case involving unauthorized fees allegedly charged by banks for issuance of Illinois license plates, ‘The Corbett plaintiffs contended that the voluntary payment doctrine of Illinois Glass Co.v, Chicago Telephone Co,, 234 Ill. 535, 85 N.E, 200 (1908), did not apply where an injunction was requested. The court rejected this position: “Nor can we find that the request for temporary injunction by plaintiffs was tantamount to payment under protest so as to defeat the defense of voluntary payment. The pendency of a suit praying for a temporary injunction cannot change the situation that the essence of all these transactions, as being purely voluntary, is established by the allegations of the complaint.” Corbett, 299 N.E 2d at 527-28. AAs the Corbett court held, the voluntary payment doctrine prechudes claims, not types of relief Corbett also held that a suit does not constitute a payment under protest, even for a named plaintiff, The Corbett court stated that plaintiffs, “urge a.fortiori, but without legal authority, that the filing of suit should also be sufficient. This argument is unavailing since plaintiffs’ second amended complaint alleges simply purchase of license plates by them from defendants in a necessarily voluntary manner." Corbett, 299 N.E.2d at 528. Furthermore, even assuming arguendo that the ul named plaintiffs could give ue given an appropriate protest of ,. at at some point, that protest does not apply to purported class members, Those other policyholders are continuing to voluntarily pay the COT increase, without filing any protest of their own. Therefore, even assuming arguendo reconsideration were justified for the named plaintiffs, a class action complaint still should not be allowed, The plaintiffs’ claims concerning injunctive relief are, therefore, belated arguments not supported by the record, legally incorrect, and a last ditch attempt to avoid the consequences of the correct application by this Court of the voluntary payment doctrine, Plaintiffs’ motion to reconsider should be denied. m. Previously Found By This Court, Plaintiffs H Ki Of Facts Under The Voluntary Payment Doctrine Re-hashing arguments from their brief, the plaintiffs again seek to challenge the “knowledge” requirement of the voluntary payment defense by arguing that their payments were made under various mistakes of fact: (1) plaintiffs had no knowledge of the true impact of AIDS-related deaths on mortality rates; and (2) that Maccabees’ statement relating to new federal taxes was allegedly “false and misleading,” ‘This point was rejected by this Court in its opinion, and is without merit now as well First, plaintiffs claim that the voluntary payment cannot apply to them because they did not have full knowledge of the impact of AIDS-related deaths upon the mortality rates of Maccabees’ insureds. The plaintiffS draw a quote from the 1908 case of Illinois Glass, in support of the mistaken contention that “full knowledge” means perfect knowledge. See Illinois Glass Co. v. Chicago ‘Telephone Co., 234 Ill. 535, 541 (Ill. 1908). Even assuming, arguendo, Ilinois Glass did stand for ‘his incorrect conclusion in 1908 when the case was decided, several more recently reported decisions have clarified that “full knowledge of the facts” does not mean perfect knowledge. Instead, as this Court already has ruled in this case, the voluntary payment doctrine requires only those facts 12 necessury to provide payers waa site knowledge about the increase. C 18-9, Moreover, the Minois Glass cour itself did not have such a high standard in mind. For example, the actual opinion does not--as plaintiffs incorrectly attribute-- require “full knowledge of the facts,” but merely “knowledge of the facts.” Ilinois Glass, 234 Ill. at $41. In support of these arguments repeated in essence from its brief opposing Maccabees’ motion to dismiss, plaintiffs cite Papers Unlimited for the erroneous notion that the voluntary payment defense requires a defendant to assume the burden of proving the plaintiffs paid “with full knowledge ofthe facts.” Mo. to Reconsid, at p. 6 citing Papers Unlimited v, Park, 253 Ill. App. 3d 150, 152, 625 NE.2d 373, 375 (Ist Dist. 1993). The Papers Unlimited case, however, has nothing whatsoever to do with the voluntary payment doctrine, Instead, that case stands for an entirely different proposition; namely, a plaintiff is not precluded from seeking recovery on a second suit based upon the same claims against a different defendant, where he only learned of his claim against that defendant in the first suit, and there is no showing of identity or privity between the defendants in the two cases. 253 Ill. App. 34 at 153-54, 625 N.E.2d at 376. Papers Unlimited is limited to the application of the doctrines of res judicata and account stated, and offers nothing to the analysis of the law or facts at ber. As to plaintiff factual argument that the notice was insufficient, this Court clearly was satisfied that the plaintiffs had sufficient. knowledge of the relevant facts upon which to base a protest or raise questions, The Court found that the 1991-92 annual statement clearly advised the plaintiffs of negative mortality experience and a necessary adjustment-facts which were more than sufficient for the plaintiffs to have a basis to protest. Op. at 9. However, no protest was made, despite adequate notice to plaintiffs, Plaintiffs also repeat their argument that Maccabees’ 1991-92 annual statement was false and misleading. ‘This is an ineffective effort to avoid the voluntary payment doctrine through “fraud or misrepresentation.” While Plaintiffs cite Kanter in their motion to reconsider at 9 for other issues, 1B Kanter also involved allegations ¢ 1d and misrepresentation by a lanuot agent concerning the level of costs that would be charged under a lease, The tenant allegedly relied on the agent's fraud and misrepresentation in signing the lease under which the disputed cost payments were made. ‘That court held that the voluntary payment doctrine was applicable, but that there was compulsion, so the claim was not barred. However, the mere fact that there were allegations of fraudulent misrepresentations of cost levels, purportedly relied on by a plaintifFin entering into a contract under which the disputed payments were made, did not in itself preclude application of the voluntary payment doctrine. Moreover, there was no fraud or misrepresentation here. ‘The Court’s Opinion addresses the specific points previously raised by plaintiff, including that plaintiffS had argued that the notice was inadequate because “the language does not explain the exact nature of the adjustments... the notice fails to tell the policy holder that the ‘new federal insurance taxes” referred to were not taxes, but were actually an accounting change...Op. at 4 However, as this Court found, “..all of the information necessary to inform the plaintiffs of the increase was provided in the Annual Statement.” Op. at 9-10. On the same issue, plaintiffs argue as if RMLIC invented the term DAC tax to mislead its customers, the term is the normal one used from inception of the tax. ‘There are hundreds of references using that term. For example [see copies attached as Exhibit A]: ‘The June 10, 1992 Proposed Rules, office of Personnel Management 48 CFR Ch. 21, 1992 WL 57 FR 24710, sec, 2131.205-41 regarding general and administrative expenses states: "Federal tax paid on policy acquisition expenses (Deferred Acquisition Cost ‘Dac’ tax) shall be an allowable cost. The DAC tax includes the tax on additional premiums remitted to the contractor to mect its DAC tax obligations.” Brostoff, “IRS Proposes Regulations On DAC," National Underwriter - Life & Health (Nov. 25, 1991), 1991 WL 2877539 uses the term "DAC tax." King, “Agents Take Stock Of Gains And Losses In 1991," National ‘Underwriter - Life & Health-Financial Services, 1991 WL 2877411, Dec. 30, 1991: "Policy performance in the form of interest rates and dividends has also 14 been deflatea uy effect of Deferred Acquisition Cust: ore generally known as the DAC tax. Insurers also are slowly adjusting policies to reflect increasing mortality costs." ‘Town send, “It Was "The Year Of Shock’ From Mutual Life Companies," National Underwriter - Life & Health, Dec. 30, 1991, 1991 WL 2877429, “Federal income taxes have increased for the entire life industry, with the infamous DAC (deferred acquisition cost) tax." Plaintiffs refer to the fact that the DAC tax portion of the COT increase was not applied to policies which were not part of a pension plan [Mo. Reconsid, at 8]. This demonstrates that the company acted in good faith to limit the increase based on the actual impact of the tax changes Conclusion Because plaintiffs claims are barred by the voluntary payment defense, and since plaintiffs do not have a basis for this Court to reconsider and alter its prior Opinion, plaintiffs’ motion for reconsideration should be denied.

(DEFERRED ACQUISITION COSTS) By Steven Brostoff IRS Proposes Regulations On DAC Tax WASHINGTON--The Internal Revenue Service will hold a public \earing on Jan. 31, 1992, on proposed regulations relating to the x on deferred acquisition costs imposed on life insurance * sompanies last year. ‘The IRS requested that those interested in commenting on the sroposed regulations specifically discuss six issues: + Whether the categories of groups recognized for purposes of the yroup life insurance definition should be expanded to include jiscretionary groups; * Whether, and in what circumstances, the proposed treatment of exchanges in insurance contracts would require insurers to capitalize excessive amounts; + Whether, and in what circumstances, a duplication or omission >f net premiums may result under the proposed treatment of premiums and other considerations for reinsurance; * Whether special rules should be provided to ensure consistent creatment of reinsurance premiums in cases where the ceding company and the reinsurer have different taxable years; * How changes to the proposed regulations could ease the burden of complying with the regulations without creating undue tax avoidance opportunities; and, * How the law should apply to reinsurance agreements undertaken incident to different non-recognition transactions. The IRS estimated that the average recordkeeping burden relating to the proposed regulations would be one hour per respondent . Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works 11/25/91 NATUNDLH 2 The DAC tax provision enacted in 1990 requires life insurers to sapitalize certain policy acquisition costs, rather than expense chem, according to a specified schedule. For group life contracts, 2.05 percent of premiums will have to oe capitalized as policy acquisition expenses. For annuities, the Figure is 1.75 percent. For most other contracts, the figure is 7.7 percent. Thus, the proposed definition of group life insurance is crucial for determining whether a particular contract will qualify for the 2.05 percent rate or the 7.7 percent rate. The proposed regulation appears to adopt a fairly restrictive definition of group life insurance. The proposal says that for a contract to qualify for group life treatment, it must cover a group of individuals defined by reference to employment relationsHip, membership in an organization or similar factor. The proposal says that the types of groups satisfying this requirement include an employee group, a debtor group, a labor union group, a credit union group or certain association groups. However, the proposal specifically does not adopt the group life insurance definition and Group Life Insurance Standard Provisions Model Act approved by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. IRS noted that a group that might be treated as a discretionary group under the NAIC model act would not necessarily qualify as a group under the proposed regulations. Also relating to groups, the proposal says that all members of the group, in general, must be eligible for coverage without regard to evidence of insurability. There are two exceptions. First, for contracts that provide only group term insurance without cash surrender value, coverage may be denied or limited based on the response to a "permissible" questionnaire, but not on any other basis, including a medical examination. Second, coverage may be denied or limited to any member of the group based on any evidence of insurability obtained from the member or his doctor prior to Jan. 1, 1993. Also under the proposal, the only permissible differences in Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works Page 2 11/25/91 NATUNDLH 2 sremiums are those based on age, gender or smoking habits. Turning to the definition of net premiums, the proposal notes that according to the law, net premiums for each category of insurance contracts will equal the excess, if any, of the "gross smount of premiums and other consideration" for the contracts, over rhe sum of return premiums and premiums incurred for reinsurance. Under the proposed regulations, this equation would work as follows: If an insurance or annuity contract is exchanged for a specified insurance contract, the insurance company must include the fair market value of the contract issued in the exchange in its "gross amount of premiums and other consideration" for the issuance of the new contract. thie rule applies whether the exchange is initiated by a policyholder or the insurance company. 2 In addition, the proposal says that an amount deposited with the insurance company is not to be treated as a premium until it is applied to, or irrevocably committed to, the payment of premiums. The proposal adds that payment made to an insurance company relating to a retired life reserve arrangement is treated as irrevocably committed to the payment of premiums. Deferred and uncollected premiums are not included in "gross amount. of premiums and other considerations" because they have not accrued for tax purposes. IRS also notes that the law excludes from "gross amount of premiums and other consideration" certain policyholder dividends that are treated as paid to the policyholder and returned to the insurance company as a premium. ‘The proposed regulation relating to this section of the law excludes from "gross amount of premiums and other consideration" amounts that are applied to increase benefits or reduce the premiums otherwise required to be paid on the same contract that generated the dividend. Regarding reinsurance, IRS noted that the law requires ceding companies to reduce their "gross amount of premium and other consideration" by the amount incurred as reinsurance premiums. Two “anti-abuse" rules applied to this. The first rule bars avoidance of the capitalization requirement when a United States Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works Page 3 [1/25/91 NATUNDLH 1 insurer pays premiums to a reinsurer that is not subject to U.S. reinsurance tax. The second rule authorizes the Treasury Department to issue regulations ensuring that reinsurance transactions are treated consistently. Under the proposed regulation, to determine "gross amount of premiums and other consideration," all items of consideration exchanged by a ceding company and a reinsurer are netted together. ‘The net negative consideration determined by a party reduces its net premiums. The net positive consideration determined by the other party increases its net premiums. This, IRS said, ensures consistency. The proposal also prevents the use of a reinsurance agreement to reduce the amount to be capitalized as a policy acquisition expense. 3£ a party to a reinsurance transaction that has net positive consideration has general deductions that limit the policy acquisition expenses it would otherwise be required to capitalize, the other party cannot reduce its net premiums by the full amount of the net negative consideration. - INDEX REFERENCES KEY WORDS: UNITED STATES.

To Stop Sales in N.J. Pending State Study. Most people thought Executive Life was going to be a single isolated case of an overly-aggressive company getting its due, and that no other companies would be similarly affected. Equitable Life, New York, for sure, had its troubles but seemed to be moving toward a solution by demutualizing. But then the world began to unravel for real in April, with the california and New York departments moving on Executive Life companies, creditors closing in on Monarch Life, and California and Virginia seizing First Capital and Fidelity Bankers Life, respectively. Still, most agents were able to distance themselves from these events. But the crusher came in July with the seizure of the venerable Mutual Benefit Life by the New Jersey Department after a run on the company precipitated by a ratings downgrade, nervous agents and policyholders, and negative press reports. Agents not only felt betrayed by the industry but victimized by the press, which most thought was spending undue ink comparing the ills of the industry with the Savings and Loan crisis and, thereby, unduly alarming consumers. However, behind the scenes, some agents were capitalizing on the woes Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works [2/30/91 NATUNDLE 39 >f other companies and creating their own form of alarm among consumers xy denigrating competitors. Equitable agents, for instance, were caught in a barrage of negative selling tactics that destroyed morale and scared away clients. At the General Agents‘ and Managers‘ Association annual meeting in san Francisco, Equitable agency head, George Karr, 1990 inductee into 3AMA's hall of fame gave an impassioned diatribe against company oashing and agent stealing. Mr. Karr predicted that if agent and policyholder recycling continued there will be no career agency companies because bottom line pressures would be too great. Not only have industry leaders like Ernest Cragg, chairman of the uife Insurance Marketing and Research Association, called for the pashing to stop but state insurance departments have issued warnings to the industry that negative selling tactics may violate laws ‘against unfair trade practices. Most of the industry's ills, however, have been the result of precipitous decline in the value of insurer investments in real estate, junk bonds and general interest rates. Policy performance in the form of interest rates and dividends has also been deflated by the effects of Deferred Acquisition Costs, more generally known as the DAC tax. Insurers also are slowly adjusting policies to reflect increasing mortality costs. News about policy performance, however, has taken a lot longer in getting to the public than company performance. Policy illustrations and projections of future values have not fully reflected current economics, and consumers are beginning to sue for what they feel are misrepresentations. In reaction to sagging consumer confidence, groups like the American Society of CLU & ChFC, along with National Association of Life Underwriters, are revising their suggested illustration standards. The Society of Actuaries' task force is doing a study of its own. Agents and companies are firing salvos at each other as to who is to blame for misleading proposals, but this is a chicken-and-egg situation with origins in the high-flying days of the early @0s when inflation ruled the roost. John Neighbors, 1990-91 president of NALU, said he has heard both Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works Page 6 12/30/91 NATUNDLH 39 sides of the situation: Agents contend that companies prepare the llustrations, yet company officers say they are only responding to the jemands of agents. However, Mr. Neighbors believes most of the major companies with large field forces are now acting responsibly and are adjusting policy srojects, although a minority of small companies still are competing vith unrealistic proposals because they can't compete any other way, he said. This also has been the year of rating agencies. Some have compared che raters to invading armies sweeping in to capitalize on civil mrest, and to which all good subjects must pay homage. Others see the agencies as fulfilling the role regulators should have performed. But nost agents, whether or not they like or understand the ratings, have seen forced to use one or all of them to quell policyholder fears. Agents groups have coined their own term to identify the research and analysis agents must do on the companies they sell. "Due Care," not "Due Diligence," is the industry correct term to describe what agents Jo, according to the American College, the American Society of CLU and ChFC, and the National Association of Life Underwriters. Tax-wise, agents had been hoping for resolution of the status of long-term care benefits payments and clarification of technical concerns relating to pension simplification. However, Congress did very little to answer some of these concerns, said Mr. Neighbors. We were hoping that by getting some pension simplification passed that employers would be more inclined to improve their pensions where a lot of them have been put on hold because of the complexity of the rules and regulations," he said. Legislatively, agents also were disappointed that Congress chose not to close two banking loopholes: the Delaware loophole allowing bank sales of insurance nationwide through Delaware-chartered banks, and the towns of 5,000 loophole. On the plus side, the industry was spared any new tax laws. However, as the year comes to an end, fears of recession's effects on the industry are replacing anxieties about insurer insolvency. Although the recession has certainly hurt corporate business, said Donald Mehlig, 1990-91 president of the American Society of CLU & ChFC, estate planning sales have been the one bright spot in the sales year. Insurance company consolidations will be the savior of the industry Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works Page 7 -2/30/91 NATUNDLH 39 in the 90s or there will be more Mutual Benefits, Mr. Mehlig predicts. For agents, this will mean a return to the career agency field force sy independent producers who left in the 80s. Agents will be looking for more support from insurers, although the levels of support are likely to be a lot lower than in the past, said Mr. Mehlig, adding that che alternative is to have no support at all as an independent. Companies will have much more control over their agents and will much nore be able to say "The business stays here or adios," he said. Variable products are predicted to be a big player for the 90s. With these products, companies will be able to gain even more control over agents because of National Association Securities Dealers licensing requirements. This is a zero sum game for agents, said Mr. Mehlig. "Insuxance companies got clobbered because they paid all the expenses and only got half of the business and the other half went to niche companies that were living off their field forces." The payoff for agents, he believes, is that as insurers are able to provide more services and better support because of increased business from their career field forces, agents' lives should be simplified. - INDEX REFERENCES - KEY WORDS: INSURANCE AGENTS LIFE INSURANCE INDUSTRY: Insurance (INS) sic: 6311 6411 Word Count: 1207 12/30/91 NATUNDLH 39 END OF DOCUMENT Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig.

Townsend It Was degrees The Year Of Shock! For Mutual Life Companies 1991 was "The Year of Shock" for mutual life insurance companies. Eten considered invincible and problem-free, because of their age, size, traditional whole life products and policy dividend buffer against adverse experience, mutual life insurers fell prey to the sumulative impact of changes in the life insurance industry. Many major life insurers found themselves exposed to changes in sroducts and product mix, the interest rate environment, highyield sond euphoria, overbuilding and overlending in the commercial real estate market, and an increase in taxation of the life insurance industry. Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States gave notice chat all was not well with major mutual life insurers when, in December 1990, it announced that it would seek to demutualize and raise additional capital. Mutual Benefit Life stunned the life insurance industry in May 1991, when news of merger talks with Metropolitan Life Insurance company appeared in the press. This was followed by Mutual Benefit joing into conservation. Product changes in the life insurance industry over the last few years have moved many major companies away from traditional whole life policies with long liability and long asset durations, to investment products with short liability and short asset durations (if properly matched) . In a move to capture investment-oriented business, companies invested in high-yield bonds, commercial mortgage loans and real estate. Ultimately, this impacted liquidity and asset values when pusiness stalled, vacancies rose and real estate prices tumbled, and annuity policyholders took advantage of surrender options. Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works Page 10 12/30/91 NATUNDLH 4 Investment grade bonds are only 47 percent of the mutual life industry invested assets, and 41 percent of their total bonds are srivate placements. High-yield bonds, mortgages and real estate were 36 percent of mutual life industry assets at 12/31/90. At 12/31/90, Mutual Benefit and Equitable ranked @0th and 78th among 80 large mutuals, with 24 percent and 32 percent of their assets in investment grade bonds (versus a 47 percent composite) . Several major mutual life insurers have mortgages and real estate equal to 30 percent to 50 percent of total surplus, versus 30.2 percent for the mutual life industry as a whole. Many mortgages have palloon payments at the end of three to seven year terms, to match maturities on guaranteed investment contracts. Mortgages, real estate, high-yield bonds and LBO funds were 55 percent of Equitable's invested assets at 12/31/90, leading‘ Equitable to demutualize and sell 45 percent of the company for $1 pillion to Axa-Midi, a French concern. Such assets were 43 percent of Mutual Benefit's investments at 12/31/90, with a concentration in four major real estate projects. Mutual Benefit was forced to sell its group life and health operations for a contigent $506 million. Chief executives must relearn the three R's: reading, writing, arithmetic, have become real estate, rumors, run on the bank. Short term liabilities, and surrender options, require holding short term, liquid assets. Due to surrenders and maturities, net operating cash flow fell steadily from 24 percent to 17 percent of total income from 1986 to 1990. Net yield for mutuals was 8.76 percent in 1990, 55 basis points below the entire life industry yield of 9.31 percent. Sources of surplus growth include earnings and equity in affiliates. Mutual company returns rose for the third consecutive year in 1990, but were only an 8.4 percent return on mean equity and a 0.59 percent return on mean invested assets. Federal income taxes have increased for the entire life industry, with the infamous DAC (deferred acquisition cost) tax. Pretax 1990 returns for mutuals were 10.4 percent on mean equity and 0.72 percent on mean invested assets. Net capital losses of $1,913 million in 1990 consumed 64 percent of $2,973 operating gain for mutual life insurers. Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works Page 11 12/30/91 NATUNDLH 4 The number of mutual life insurers fell 32 percent, from 171 sompanies in 1953 to 117 companies in 1989 (ACLI data). In the last three years, Chicago Metropolitan, Maccabees Mutual, Mutual Security and Rushmore Mutual demutualized, and Charlotte Liberty, Manhattan Mutual, Praetorian Mutual and Standard Mutual were merged into other companies. Demutualizations, mergers sales of business lines, and joint ventures will continue to occur, not only to survive current conditions, but also to achieve efficient expense ratios and offer competitive products, whether reflected in product prices or policyholder dividend scales. Despite the cushion perceived in dividend scales, mutual companies are facing the same competitive conditions as stock companies, and have no access to capital markets. Those mutual companies that cannot respond to changing industry conditioris are likely to merge or demutualize. only 42 percent of 110 U.S. mutual life insurance companies earned their aggregate policyholder dividends during each of the five years 1986-1990, inclusive, according to research which my firm, Townsend & Schupp Co., recently completed. Comparable ratios for the five years ending 1988, 1989 and 1990, respectively, are 46 percent, 44 percent and 42 percent. Thus, the percent of comapnies earning their policy dividends has been decreasing. When one considers that non-earning companies have been acquired, or demutualized, the downward trend may be slightly sharper than indicated by the preceding ratios. Table I shows the distribution of 110 mutual life insurance companies by the trend of their aggregate policyholder dividend payments during 1986-1990, and their ability to earn such aggregate dividends. table : Table I Companies Reporting Pretax Operating Gains Aggregate Policy Dividends All Years Less Than For 1986-1990 Were: 1986-1990 All Years Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig.

Thus, a rise or decline in aggregate policyholder dividends does not necessarily reflect a corresponding change in the company's current dividend scales. The first group consists of 73 mutual companies which paid policyholder dividends in 1990, and is split (vertically) according to the trend of their aggregate policyholder dividends paid during 1986-1990. Aggregate policyholder dividends were earned in all five years (1986-1990) by 59 percent of 29 companies with increasing aggregate dividends, and by 50 percent of both 30 companies with relatively constant aggregate dividends, and 14 companies with decreasing aggregate dividends. The second group consists of 37 smaller mutual life companies which paid less than $0.5 million in policyholder dividends per year during 1986-1990. Only seven of 37 small companies earned their dividend scale in all five years. Only one of 12 health insurers earned their policyholder dividends in all five years. Of companies with more than $1 billion total surplus (surplus plus MSVR), all but Equitable Life Assurance reported pretax earnings in all five years, 1986-1990. Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works Page 13 2/30/91 NATUNDLH 4 Only 17 of 73 major companies experienced a rising trend in their ggregate policy dividends from 1986 to 1990, and earned their lividends in all five years. Large companies which earned their rising aggregate policy lividends during 1986-1990 included Massachusetts Mutual, jetropolitan, New York Life, Northwestern Mutual, Principal Mutual znd (surprise) Mutual Benefit. Smaller companies in this category included Berkshire Life, ‘entury Life, Columbian Mutual, Government Personnel, Home Life, Jinnesota Mutual, Ohio National, Security National (both Nebraska and N.Y.), Shenandoah Life and state Mutual of Ga. Twelve companies had a rising trend in aggregate policy dividends From 1986 to 1990, but pretax operating earnings before dividends vere less than policy dividends in one or more years. Provident futual reported pretax operating losses after policy dividends in all five years, New England Mutual in four of five years, and \merican Mutual, Covenant Life, Guardian Life and State Life [Insurance Fund in two of five years. It must be kept in mind that certain companies, such as Jorthwestern Mutual and New England Mutual, have a policy of funding sart of their surplus growth and dividend scale from capital gains. Thus, policy dividend payments could be "earned" despite incurring oretax operating losses. only half of companies with constant and/or decreasing aggregate policy dividends earned their policy divedends in ali five years, 1986-1990. Such companies may have reduced dividend scales to try to produce surplus growth. Thirty of 73 major companies paid relatively constant aggregate dividends from 1986 to 1990. Only seven of 30 companies had surplus and M.S.V.R. over $140 million. This may reflect the inability of smaller companies to raise dividend scales, or to generate in-force growth . Ten of the 15 companies with relatively constant aggregate policyholder dividends from 1986 to 1990, which failed to earn their dividends in at least one year, have less than $85 million total surplus. Seven companies failed to earn their dividends in two or more of the five years. North Carolina Mutual had operating losses after policy dividends in each of the last four years, and sold an investment management company to raise money in 1991. Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works Page 14 .2/30/91 NATUNDLH 4 Fourteen of 73 major companies experienced a decreasing trend in their aggregate policy dividends from 1986 to 1990, which may -eflect a change in business mix, termination of older policies, or , reduction in dividend scales. Hach of the 14 companies had less chan $750 million of surplus and M.S.V.R,, but 11 companies exceeded 3100 million total surplus. Seven of the 14 companies failed to earn their policy dividends in at least one year, including Acacia Mutual, Fidelity Mutual and Jational Life of Vermont. Twenty-five small companies (a) paid either zero, or less than $0.5 million in policyholder dividends in 1990, and (b) earned less than $2 million in each of the last five years, 1986-1990. Surplus and M.S.V.R, ranges from $0.4 million to $24 million for the 25 companies. Nineteen of the 25 small companies failed to earn their aggregate policy dividends in all five years, 1986-1990, and 13 companies failed to earn their policy dividends in two or more years. American ome, Charlotte Liberty, and Western Mutual Life and Casualty failed to earn their policy dividends in three of five years. Mutual Life of D.C. had pretax operating losses in all five years, and total surplus fell from $3.2 million to §1.8 million, Golden Eagle had operating losses in each of the last four years, 1987-1990, and total surplus fell from $2.3 million to $1.4 million. Twelve companies have high health insurance exposure, in addition to paying less than $0.5 million in policy dividends in each of the last five years. Only one of the companies, Physicians Mutual, reported operating earnings in all five years. Seven companies (Arkansas Blue Cross, Central States, Educators Mutual Insurance, Electric Mutual, Guarantee Trust, Health Care, and United Mutual) failed to earn their policy dividends in two or more years. Health premiums in force range from 1.5 to 17.7 times total surplus. Net capital gains are a secondary source of potential surplus growth, in addition to statutory earnings. Some companies have invested heavily in subsidiary companies, or in investment real estate, intending to generate surplus through realized capital gains, and unrealized capital gains or equity in undistributed earnings of subsidiaries. Four companies reported $0.5 million or more in capital gains in Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works Page 15 12/30/91 NATUNDLH 4 each of the last five years, 1986-1990. Their cumulative capital yains generated 68 percent of present total surplus for Unity Mutual, 47 percent for New England Mutual, 15 percent for American United, and 13 percent for Ohio National. Conversely, capital losses are a source of erosion of a company's surplus position. Chicago Metro Mutual reported net capital losses in each year, 1986-1990, which $2 million, and was recently acquired by Atlanta Life. Frederick S.

ACTION: Proposed rulemaking. SUMMARY: The Office of Personnel Management is proposing to establish Chapter 21 in Title 48 of the Code of Federal Regulations (Parts 2100-2199). This regulation describes the method by which the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) implements and supplements the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) for the Federal Employees! Group Life Insurance (FEGLI) Program. OPM is proposing this regulation to identify basic and significant acquisition policies unique to the FEGLI Program. The regulation would be referred to as the Federal Employees’ Group Life Insurance Program Acquisition Regulation (LIFAR) . PATES: Comments must be received on or before July 10, 1992. ADDRESSES: Written comments may be sent to Andrea S. Minniear, Assistant Director for Retirement and Insurance Policy, Retirement and Insurance Group, Office of Personnel Management, P.O. Box 57, Washington, DC 20044, or delivered to OPM, room 4351, 1900 E Street, NW., Washington, DC. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Abby L. Block, (202) 606-0191. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OPM is proposing thie regulation to provide direction and uniformity in the agency's procurement of life insurance coverage for Federal employees, retirees, and survivors and to assist life insurance carriers and other interested parties in understanding OPM's application of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) (48 CFR chapter 1) to the FEGLI Program. The FAR system was established for the codification and publication of uniform policies and procedures for acquisition by all executive agencies. The FAR system consists of those Government-wide acquisition regulations in 48 CFR chapter 1 and agency acquisition regulations in subsequent chapters issued by individual Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works Page 19 57 FR 24704-01 (Cite as: 57 FR 24704) agencies. OPM is now proposing the LIFAR, established as chapter 21 within title 48 of the Code of Federal Regulations, to describe the method by which it will implement and supplement the FAR for the specific purpose of acquiring and administering contracts with life insurance carriers in the FEGLI Program. The fundamental principle underlying the LIFAR is that the FAR is applicable in general to contracts negotiated under the FEGLI Program although specific application of the FAR necessarily differs from its application to other procurement contracts because of the distinct nature of the service procured, i.e., life insurance coverage. Indeed, it is well understood that a number of provisions of the FAR would be impossible to apply literally in a practical manner to a life insurance contract. In accordance with FAR subpart 1.3, the LIFAR does not unnecessarily repeat, paraphrase, or otherwise restate material contained in the FAR. Therefore, the LIFAR is not, by itself, a complete document as it must be used in conjunction with the FAR. Where the FAR has no practical applicability to the FEGLI Program, and attempts to apply a given provision would be counterproductive and inconsistent with the intent of the FAR, specific notation is provided along with the authority for the determination of nonapplicability. Where a FAR part or subpart is adequate for use without further OPM implementation or supplementation, or is clearly irrelevant, no mention is cited in the LIFAR. Thus, the order of use is (1) FAR; (2) LIFAR. The LIFAR is intended to identify basic and significant acquisition policies unique to the FEGLI Program. It is also important to note that the LIFAR does not replace, incorporate, or supplement regulations found at 5 CFR part 870 which provide the substantive policy guidance for administration of the life insurance program under 5 U.S.C. chapter 87. LIFAR subpart 2115.9 provides a profit opportunity for the contractor in the form of a service charge which may be negotiated in lieu of the risk charge that OPM has provided in the past. The service charge represents that element of the total remuneration that contractors may receive for contract performance over and above allowable costs (FAR 15.901). It does not guarantee a profit but is intended to be used as an incentive to stimulate efficient contract performance and as a guide to agencies entering negotiations. Thus, the proposed factors are intended to give structure to the process of determining a profit prenegotiation objective and to provide justification and documentation of the profits paid. The service charge formula allows for appropriate increases over time based on contractor performance. While OPM was developing the LIFAR, Congress passed the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990. Section 11301 of title XI of this Act, now codified at 26 U.S.C. 848, prescribes new rules for the capitalization of insurance policy acquisition expenses (Deferred Acquisition Cost "DAC" tax). Since the DAC tax, as it relates to the FEGLI Program, is a tax on assets rather than net profit, it is an allowable contract expense under Government contract cost principles (see 2131.205-41(c)). For purposes of the LIFAR, the DAC tax includes the tax on additional premium remitted to the contractor to meet its DAC tax obligations. Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt.

Works Page 31 57 FR 24704-01 (Cite as: 57 FR 24704, *24708) (2) once agreement to relinquish the risk charge is made, the agreement may not se cancelled unless OPM and the contractor mutually agree to reinstitute payment >f a risk charge; or unless the Fund balance falls below the level defined in 2115.902(a} and 30 days notice of cancellation is provided; or unless the Sontractor or OPM provide notice of cancellation for any reason 1 year prior to che date cancellation is sought. (c) Any profit prenegotiation objective (service charge) will be determined on che basis of a weighted guidelines structured approach. 2115.905 Profit analysis factors. (a) The OPM contracting officer will apply a weighted guidelines method when developing the prenegotiation objective (service charge) for the FEGLI contract. In accordance with the factors defined in FAR 15.905-1, OPM will apply the appropriate weights derived from the ranges specified in paragraph (b) of this section and will determine the prenegotiation objective based on the contractor's Basic and Family Optional insurance claims paid in the previous contract year. (1) Contractor performance. OPM will consider such elements as the accurate and timely processing of benefit claims, the volume and validity of complaints received by OPM, effectiveness of internal controls systems in place, the timeliness and adequacy of reports on operations, and responsiveness to OPM offices, enrollees, beneficiaries, and Congress as measures of economical and efficient contract performance. This factor will be judged apart from the contractor's basic responsibility for contract compliance and will be a measure of the extent and nature of the contractor's contribution to the FEGLI Program through the application of managerial expertise and effort. Evidence of effective contract performance will receive a plus weight, and poor performance or failure to comply with contract terms and conditions a zero weight. Innovations of benefit to the PEGLI Program will generally receive a plus weight; documented inattention or indifference to effective operations, a zero weight. (2) Contract cost risk. OPM will evaluate the contractor's risk annually in relation to the amount in the Employees’ Life Insurance Fund and will evaluate this factor accordingly. (3) Federal socioeconomic programs. OPM will consider documented evidence of successful, contractor-initiated efforts to support such Federal socioeconomic programs as drug and substance abuse deterrents, and other concerns of the type enumerated in FAR 15.905-1(c) as a factor in negotiating profit. This factor will be related to the quality of the contractor's policies and procedures and the extent of unusual effort or achievement demonstrated. Evidence of effective support of Federal socioeconomic programs will result in a plus weight; indifference to Federal socioeconomic programs will result in a zero weight; and only deliberate failure to provide opportunities to persons and organizations that would benefit from these programs will result in a negative weight. (4) Capital investments. This factor is generally not applicable to FEGLI Program contracts because facilities capital cost of money may be an allowable administrative expense. Generally, this factor shall be given a weight of zero. Copr. © West 1999 No Claim to Orig. U.S. Govt. Works Page 32 37 FR 24704-01 (Cite as: 57 FR 24704, *24708) jowever, special purpose facilities or investment costs of direct benefit to the "EGLI Program that are not recoverable as allowable or allocable administrative sxpenses may be taken into account in assigning a plus weight. (5) Cost Control. This factor is based on the contractor's previously jemonstrated ability to perform effectively and economically. In addition, -onsideration will be given to measures taken by the contractor that result in roductivity improvements and other cost containment accomplishments that will be >f future benefit to the FEGLI Program. Examples are containment of costs sssociated with processing claims; success at preventing waste, loss, mauthorized use, or misappropriation of FEGLI assets; and success at limiting and recovering erroneous benefit payments. (6) Independent Development. Consideration will be given to independent sontractor-initiated efforts, such as the development of a unique and enhanced sustomer support system, that are of demonstrated value to the FEGLI Program and for which developmental costs have not been recovered directly or indirectly chrough allowable or allocable administrative expenses. This *24709 factor will se used to provide additional profit opportunities based upon an assessment of he contractor's investment and risk in developing techniques, methods, sractices, etc., having viability to the Program at large. Improvements and Innovations recognized and rewarded under any other profit factor cannot be sonsidered. (b) The weight ranges for each factor to be used in the weighted guidelines approach are set forth below: PART 2116--TYPES OF CONTRACTS Subpart 2116.1--Selecting Contract Types 2116.105 Solicitation provisions. subpart 2116.2--Fixed-Price Contracts 2116.270 FEGLI Program contracts. 2116.270-1 Contract clause. 2116.271 Fixed-Price with limited cost redetermination plus fixed fee contract. 2116.271-1 Contract clauses.

A copy of the policy is attached as Exhibit A. 3. Plaintiff, JAMES MILLER is a resident of Kane County, Illinois and the Trustee of the Dr. Michael Marchi irrevocable trust (“Marchi Trust”). On June 1, 1989, Maccabees issued a life insurance policy to James Miller as Trustee of the Marchi Trust. This policy was purchased by Dr. Marchi, A copy of the policy is attached as Exhibit B. 4. Plaintiff, DR. TASSOS P. NASSOS is a resident of Cook County, Illinois, Dr. Nassos is the trustee of both the Tassos Nassos living trust (“Tassos Nassos Trust”) and the irrevocable trust of Mary Nassos (“Mary Nassos Trust”). Dr. Nassos purchased a life insurance policy, as an individual, from Maccabees on May 9, 1989. Dr. Nassos, as trustee of the Tassos Nassos Trust and the Mary Nassos Trust, purchased two additional life insurance policies from Maccabees on May 9, 1989 and April 1, 1989 respectively. Copies of these policies are attached as Exhibits C, D, and E. 5. Plaintiff, MARY NASSOS is a resident of Cook County, Illinois. Mary Nassos is the Trustee for the Tassos P. Nassos irrevocable Trust. Tassos Nassos purchased a life insurance policy from Maccabees for Mary Nassos as Trustee of the Tassos P. Nassos irrevocable trust. The policy was issued to Mary Nassos on May 9, 1989. A copy of this policy is attached as Exhibit F. 6. — Ceratin Plaintiffs and members of the Class purchased their policies with a single premium payment, while other policyholders pay annual premium payments. THE INSURANCE POLICIES 7. The insurance policies issued by Maccabees to the Plaintiffs and the class were universal life insurance cash-value policies and not term life insurance policies. Under the policy terms, if the Plaintiffs and the class paid their premiums on time, Maccabees could not cancel or unilaterally alter the terms of the polices, The policies of the Plaintiffs and the class, referred to as “the Policies”, contain form terms and provisions. 8. Under the terms of the Policies, a certain minimum percentage of each premium payment accrues, on a monthly basis with interest, to the benefit of the Policies, i.e., the “Accumulation Value.” 9. Bach policy has a “cash value” equal to the accumulation value less any surrender charges. 10, The “Surrender Charge” is the lesser of a) the Accumulation Value, and b) the Maximum Surrender Charge. The Maximum Surrender Charge is shown on the Schedule Page and this figure is multiplied by the factor from the Table of Surrender Charge Factors that correspond to the policy year of surrender. 11. Out of each annual premium payment ~ or the Accumulation Value in the case of single premium polices - Maccabees is entitled to keep a certain portion of the payment to cover the “Cost of Insurance” (“COI”). The COI is determined on a monthly basis and is based on the sex, attained age, and rating class of the person insured. Maccabees may change the cost of insurance rates based upon its reasonable expectations as to future mortality experience. 12. The Plaintiffs and the Class have a protectable property interest in the Policies. Maccabees cannot cancel the Policies or alter the terms if the premiums are timely paid. The Policies have a cash value and are assignable. Maccabees Wrongfully Increased the Cost of Insurance Rate 13. Certain COI adjustments are permitted by the terms of the Policies. 14. On September 15, 1991, Maccabees sent Plaintiff Miller her “Annual Statement Policy Year Ending September 14, 1991,” a copy of which is attached as Exhibit G. This document states: [s}tarting Sep 15, 1991, current monthly insurance charges on this policy will be adjusted. ... The adjustments reflect the increasing number of AIDS- related deaths and, for policies which are not part of a pension plan, new federal corporate insurance taxes: This document is a form document and it was sent to each policyholder on the anniversary date of his or her policy. 15. | Maccabees increased the COI rate on the Policies for reasons other than adverse expectations as to future mortality. 16. Maccabees’ statement that the increase in the COI was due to new federal corporate insurance taxes on policies, which were not part of a pension plan, is false and misleading 17. Maccabees’ statement that the increase in the COI was due to new federal corporate insurance taxes on policies which were not part ofa pension plan creates a false impression that Congress decided to tax those policies. 18. There were no new federal taxes on insurance policies. Instead Congress instituted a change in the tax code relating to the timing of the deduction of certain expenses by Maccabees that-did not apply to the policyholders or the Policies themselves. 19. Plaintiffs also believe Maccabees stated that it was not going to impose this so-called new federal insurance tax on policies that were part of a pension plan because doing so would have raised a red flag since those plans are tax exempt. 20, On information and belief, AIDS-related deaths did not increase in sufficient numbers as to warrant an adjustment in the COI due to changes in mortality rates. Plaintiffs and members of the Class did not know this fact before paying their premiums because this information is held by Maccabees — because it relates to the future mortality expectations of Maccabees’ insureds, not the general public. Plaintifffs and members of the Class could not confirm this before paying their premiums because this can only be determined from information held by Maccabees. 21. Maccabees’ 1991 annual statement did not provide the Plaintiffs and members of the Class with full knowledge of all the facts. Policyholders continued to pay premiums in reliance on the statements made in the annual notice, without the knowledge that Congress had not taxed insurance polices that were not part of a pension plan or that AIDS-related deaths did not increase in sufficient numbers as to warrant an adjustment in the COI due to mortality rates. 22. Plaintiffs had the right to pay their premiums notwithstanding the improper COI charges in order to protect the property interest they held in the Policies and to keep their insurance in effect. For example, Plaintiff Susan Miller would have incurred a $ 2,033 “surrender charge” had she elected not to pay the improper charge. 23. Plaintiffs, Dr. Tassos Nassos, Mary Ann Nassos and James Miller procured single premium policies, They made only one premium payment on their policies, and did not make any premium payments on their policies after Maccabees increased the COI in 19991. 24. Because Dr. Tassos Nassos, Mary Ann Nassos and James Miller procured single premium policies, and no premiums payments were made after they received the annual statement announcing the unauthorized COT increase, they did not make payment with full knowledge of all the facts and cannot be deemed to have made payment voluntarily. 25. There was no increase in premiums for policyholders who did not have single premium policies. The premium payments that the policyholders made were the payments required to be made under the terms of the contract as written. In order to perform their obligation under the contract, the policyholders had to make these payments, otherwise they would have been in breach of the contract. The harm to the policyholders occurred after they made their payments when Maccabees misapplied part of the payments by wrongfully taking more of the premiums paid and applying it to the COI and reducing the investment component in breach of its duty and the terms of the policy. 26. Maccabees continues to take a larger portion of the premium payment for itself through the unauthorized COI increase and investing a smaller portion of the policyholders funds. 27. This lawsuit was initially filed on April 8, 1997. Every payment made after that date was made under protest. 28. Attached as Exhibit H are Plaintiffs’ executed Stipulation To Remittal Of Potential Disqualification. THE CLASS ALLEGATIONS 29. Plaintiffs bring this action on behalf of a Class consisting of all people nationwide who: (a) _ at any time during the ten years before the filing of this action, owned a policy of insurance issued by Royal Maccabees, including those whose policies lapsed, which insurance contract provided that cost of insurance rates will be determined based ‘on expectations of “future mortality experience”; and, (b) had their cost of insurance rates increased for reasons other than adverse expectations of “future mortality experience”, namely, Defendant increased the cost of insurance for new federal corporate insurance taxes and for an alleged increase in AIDS related deaths, 30. Joinder of all members of the class is impracticable because, on information and belief, Exhibits A, B, C, D, B & F are all standard, form insurance contracts as to which more than 38,000 life insurance policies were issued. 31. — Questions of fact and law common to all members of the class predominate over those peculiar to individual class members. These common questions include: (a) ) whether the statement that the “Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates will be determined by the Company [Maccabees] from time to time based on its expectations as to future mortality experience.” amounts to a representation that rates would not be increased unless mortality rates changed adversely; and, whether Maccabees breached the contracts it had with the plaintiffs and the class (policyholders) by increasing the cost of insurance rates for any reason other than adverse expectations as to future mortality experience. 32. Plaintiffs will fairly and adequately protect the interests of the class because the named Plaintiffs’ claims are typical of the claims of all of the members of the class and because all claims are based on the same facts and legal theories. 33. Plaintiffs and their counsel will fairly and adequately represent the interests of the class members and will vigorously pursue this action on their behalf. Plaintiffs and their counsel have no interests that are adverse to those of the Class members. 34. Certification of the class is appropriate. A class action is the only appropriate means of resolving this controversy because each class member’s individual claim is relatively small and will not justify an individual action, In addition, class members are not aware of their rights. In the absence of a class action, a failure of justice will result. Prosecution of separate actions by individual members of the class would create the risk of inconsistent or varying standards for the parties. COUNT I BREACH OF CONTRACT 35. Defendant’s insurance policies with Plaintiffs and the class members are written contracts. The contracts were executory at the time Maccabees began to improperly increase the COI. 36. Plaintiffs performed all of their obligations under their insurance contracts, including the payment of premiums. 37. Defendant Maccabees increased the COI rates for reasons other than those allowed under its contracts, and thereby breached its contracts with the Plaintiffs, namely by: (A) imposing costs it incurred as a result of “new federal corporate insurance taxes” on the Plaintiffs when it was not permitted to do so according to the terms of the Policy (Exhibit A). This Contract provides that “Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates will be determined [by Maccabees]... based on its expectations as to future mortality experience.” The Contract did not authorize Defendant to include in the COI rates new or increased insurance taxes, even if such a tax did exist. The Contract did not allow Maccabees to pass to policyholders any cost it incurred due to changes in the timing of deductions of its cost of doing business. (B) _ increasing Plaintiffs’ cost of insurance rates as a result of “AIDS-related deaths” even though, on information and belief, AIDS-related deaths were not such as to adversely effect as to future mortality experience. 38. The increase in cost of insurance rates for any reason other than adverse expectations as to future mortality experience, (e.g., for “new federal corporate insurance taxes”) was and is a breach of the Defendant’s insurance contracts with Plaintiffs and the Class. 39, Asa direct and proximate result of the Defendant’s breach of contract, the Plaintiffs and the class were damaged in that out of the premiums paid, or policy earnings, the Defendant charged more to the cost of insurance rates for a reason other than adverse expectations as to future mortality experience. The increases in the cost of insurance rates were not authorized by the insurance contracts. 40. In addition to money damages, Plaintiffs and the Class are entitled to specific performance or injunctive relief preventing Defendant from collecting these unauthorized COI charges in the future. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs pray for relief as set forth at the conclusion of Count VI. COUNT I Recovery of Money Paid Under Mistake of Fact 41. Plaintiffs reallege paragraphs 1-40 as paragraph 41 of Count Two. 42. Plaintiffs may recover payments made for the increased COI because they paid the charge under several mistakes of fact. (See Illinois Graphics Co. v. Nickum, 159 Ill.2d 469 (Ill. 1994) ("A cause of action for the recovery of voluntary payments made because of a mistake of fact has long been recognized.")). 43. Section 28 of the Restatement of Restitution explains the basis of recovery for money paid due to mistake of fact: "A person who has paid money to another because of a mistake of fact and who does not obtain what he expected in return is entitled to restitution from the other if the mistake was induced: (a) _ by the fraud of the payee, or (b) _ by his innocent and material misrepresentation..." 44. Plaintiffs and the class paid the increased “cost of insurance charge’ without knowing that: (a) _ the federal corporate insurance taxes were not in fact taxes but rather an accounting change relating to the timing of deduction of certain expenses that did not apply to the policyholders or even to the policies themselves; and (b) AIDS-related deaths did not increase in sufficient numbers as to warrant an adjustment in the cost of insurance to reflect changes in mortality rates, ‘These constitute material mistakes of facts. Plaintiffs and the Class would have refused to pay the insurance charge if they had not been mistaken concerning these facts. 45. Payment was obtained by Maccabees’ fraud, or in the alternative, through Maccabees’ material omissions and misrepresentations. Further, it was Maccabees’ omissions of material facts and misrepresentations which caused Plaintiffs and the Class to make payment under mistakes of fact. 46. Maccabees at all times knew, or should have known, that Plaintiffs and the class were entitled to restitution or refund of the insurance payments because it knew it had failed to disclose information necessary to correct these material mistakes of fact. 47. — Plaintiffs and the Class did not receive anything from Maccabees in exchange for their increased cost of insurance payments. Equity and good conscience requires that Maccabees refund all of the money it received from its increased COI charge. Maccabees would be unjustly enriched if allowed to retain the money collected. 48. In addition to receiving a refund of the increased COI charges, Plaintiffs and the Class are entitled to statutory or common law prejudgment interest. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs pray for relief as set forth at the conclusion of Count VI. COUNT II Common Law Fraud 49. Plaintiffs reallege paragraphs 1-48 as paragraph 49 of Count Three. 50. Inthe 1991 annual statement to its customers, Maccabees misrepresented and omitted certain facts. These misrepresentations and omissions include the following: @ (b) (©) @) Maccabees’ annual statement stated that the COI increase was due, in part, to “new federal corporate insurance taxes” on policies that were not part of a pension plan. However; there were no new federal corporate insurance taxes on insurance but rather Congress had instituted a change in the tax code relating to the timing of the deduction of certain expenses ~ that change did not apply to the policyholders or the policies themselves; Maccabees’ annual statement failed to disclose that the COI was being increased because Congress had instituted a change in the tax code that required an accounting change relating to the timing of the deduction of certain expenses incurred by Maccabees’ that did not apply to the policyholders or the policies themselves; Maccabees’ annual statement stated that the COI increase was due, in part, to “the increasing number of AIDS-related deaths”, when, upon information and belief, AIDS-related deaths did not increase in sufficient numbers among the policyholders as to warrant an adjustment in the COI to reflect changes in mortality rates; and Maccabees failed to disclose that AIDS-related deaths did not increase in sufficient numbers to warrant an adjustment in the col. 51, Maccabees knowingly and intentionally made these misrepresentations and omissions. Maccabees intended that the Plaintiffs and each member of the class would rely on them, and Maccabees intended to deceive Plaintiffs and the class by making them. 52. Maccabees had a duty to disclose the omitted information because Maccabees had knowledge superior to the Plaintiffs. Plaintiffs had no knowledge of these omitted facts and the Plaintiffs could not discover these facts in the exercise of reasonable diligence because only Maccabees knew the truth of the matters it asserted in the annual statement. 53. Maccabees also had a duty to disclose this information because once Maccabees disclosed some information about the increased COI charge, it had a duty to disclose the whole truth about the increase. Because Maccabees told policyholders that the COI increase was the result of a new federal corporate insurance tax and AIDS-related deaths, it had to tell them all of the facts about the so-called tax and the alleged increase in AIDS-related deaths necessary to enable them to make an informed decision about whether to pay the increased COI charge or protest. 54. The misrepresentations and omissions were material. Plaintiffs and the members of the class would have refused to pay the increased COI had they known the truth. 55. Plaintiffs and the class reasonably and justifiably relied on the misrepresentations and omissions to their detriment because they paid the increased COI. 56. As aresult of Maccabees’ misrepresentations and omissions, Plaintiffs and the class have been damaged in the amount of the increased COL charges paid. In addition to refund or restitution of these increased COI charges paid, they are entitled to statutory or common law prejudgment interest, or interest at the rate called for under their policy terms— whichever is higher. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs pray for relief as set forth at the conclusion of Count VI. COUNT IV Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Trade Practices Claim 57. Plaintiffs reallege paragraphs 1-56 as paragraph 57 of Count Four, 58. Under the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act, any unfair or deceptive act or practice in the conduct of trade or commerce is actionable. (815 ILCS 505/1 et seq.). The statute expressly covers misrepresentations and omissions. 59, Maccabees misrepresented that the COI being increased, in part, due to “new federal corporate insurance taxes”, when there was no such federal corporate insurance tax. Maccabees misrepresented that the COI was being increased due to an increase in AIDS-related deaths when, upon information and belief, AIDS-related deaths among the policyholders did not increase. 60. Maccabees failed to disclose the COI was being increased because Congress had instituted a change in the tax code that required an accounting change relating to the timing of the deduction of certain expenses incurred by Maccabees’ that did not apply to the policyholders or the policies themselves. Maccabees failed to disclose that AIDS-related deaths did not increase in sufficient numbers to warrant an adjustment in the COI. 61. Maccabees intended that its policyholders rely on its mistepresentations and omissions, namely that they rely by paying for the unauthorized increase in COI. 62. The misrepresentations and omissions were material, Plaintiffs and the members of the class would have refused to pay for the increased COI had they had full knowledge of all the facts. 63. Plaintiffs and the other members of the class sustained actual damages as a result of Maccabees’ conduct in the amount of the increased COI charges paid. In addition to refund or restitution of the increased COI charges paid, Plaintiffs and the class are entitled to statutory or common law prejudgement interest, or interest at the rate called under their policy terms~ whichever is higher. 64. The Consumer Fraud Act authorizes the Court to grant injunctive relief where appropriate. (815 ILCS 505/10a(c)). Maccabees continues to collect the unauthorized COI charges from the policyholders, and thus Plaintiffs request that the Court declare that Maccabees has breached its policies by collecting the increased COI charges, and that Maccabees be enjoined from collecting the increased COI charges on future premium payments. 65. The Illinois Consumer Fraud Act authorizes the award of attorneys’ fees to persons who recover under the Act in addition to damages and other relief. (815 ILCS 505/10(c)). 66. Plaintiffs assert the same claim under the consumer fraud, deceptive trade practice, and false advertising statutes of all fifty states, the District of Columbia and all U.S. territories. 67. Maccabees made the misrepresentations and omissions at issue knowingly and intentionally. 68. Plaintiffs and the class reasonably and justifiably relied on the misrepresentations and omissions to their detriment because they paid the unauthorized COI increase charge. 69. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs pray for relief as set forth at the conclusion of Count VI. COUNT V Breach of Fiduciary Duty 70. Plaintiffs reallege paragraphs 1-69 as paragraph 70 of Count Five, 71. The Policies charged Maccabees with the duty to hold and manage the money paid in premiums on behalf of each policyholder, and as a result, Maccabees had the fiduciary duty of good faith and fair dealing to manage that money for the policyholder’s benefit while subordinating its own interests. 72. The Plaintiffs and members of the Class reposed confidence and trust in Maccabees to hold and manage their money as an important aspect of their investment, retirement and estate planning portfolios. 73. A portion of the Plaintiffs’ and members of the Class’ premiums pay for administrative expenses and the COI, while the remainder of the premiums accrue as part of an accumulated value of the life insurance policy. At some point, Plaintiffs and the members of the Class will receive that accumulated value, whether they surrender the policy, borrow monies against the policy or die and their heirs receive the accumulated value up to the date of death. 20 74. Maccabees had guaranteed Plaintiffs and members of the Class a return on their accumulated value. 75. In 1991, Congress changed the tax code relating to the timing of the deduction of certain expenses by Maccabees ~ a change that did not apply to the policyholders or the Policies themselves. 76. For its own benefit, Maccabees improperly passed this cost on to the policyholders by impermissibly transferring funds to the COI which had been designated to be held as accumulated value. 77. Maccabees misrepresented to the policyholders that the increased COI charge was due to new federal corporate insurance taxes and an alleged increase in the number of AIDS-related deaths. 78. Maccabees, without consent or consideration paid, reduced the accumulated value of the Policies by increasing the COI charges, and thereby reducing the extent of the policy guarantees to the policyholders. 79. Maccabees should be held accountable as a fiduciary to the extent of the accumulated values of its policy holders, and that duty has been breached by converting funds of others for its own benefit, without consent or consideration paid. 80. Wherefore, Plaintiffs pray for relief as set forth at the conclusion of Count VI. 21 COUNT VI ; ACCOUNTING ACTION IN EQUITY 81, Plaintiffs reallege paragraphs 1-80 as paragraph 81 of Count Six. 82, By the terms of the Policies, Maccabees may only change the COI rates of the Plaintiffs' and members of the Class' policies based upon its reasonable expectations as to future mortality experience. (See Exhibit A, p. 7; and Exhibit B, p. 10; Exhibits C- E, p. 9). 83. Defendant Maccabees increased the COI rates for reasons other than those allowed under its contracts, and thereby breached its contracts with the Plaintiffs and members of the Class by raising the COI (a) based upon the false representation of "new federal corporate insurance taxes" and (b) as a result of "AIDS-related deaths" even though, on information and belief, AIDS-related deaths were not such as to adversely effect the future mortality experience of the Plaintiffs and members of the Class. (See Exhibit G), 84. Inits 1991 Annual Statement to the Plaintiffs and members of the Class, Maccabees misrepresented that the COI was being increased due to "new federal corporate insurance taxes," but failed to disclose that there were no such federal corporate insurance taxes and that the COI was being increased because Congress had instituted a change in the tax code that required an accounting change relating to the timing of the deduction of certain expenses incurred by Maccabees that did not apply to the policyholders or the Policies themselves. 22 85. Maccabees misrepresented that the COI was increased due to an increase in AIDS-related deaths, when, on information and belief, AIDS-related deaths among the policyholders did not increase in sufficient numbers to warrant an adjustment to the COI. 86. Since 1991, Maccabees has wrongfully and in violation of the Policies collected the unauthorized COI charges from the Plaintiffs and members of the Class, and as a result, there are million of dollars due from Maccabees to the Plaintiffs and the members of the Class — but the Plaintiffs are unable to specifically state the amounts collected or misapplied, not having access to the books of account and records, and not being informed by Maccabees. 87. The accounting requested should be conducted in equity because (a) equitable jurisdiction is based on fraud or a fiduciary relationship and (b) the accounting would be complex and intricate in the following respects: (1) the accounting would involve COI charges since 1991 for over 65,000 policyholders; (2) separating the COI charges based on the fraudulent “new federal corporate insurance taxes” from that related to the claimed increase in “AIDS-relate deaths” involves intricate prorations and actuarial calculations (3) these calculations would be based on data only available to Maccabees, precluding the Plaintiffs’ ability to verify the accounting. 23 88. Plaintiffs seek a permanent injunction against Maccabees to prevent it from assessing these improper charges on the Policies in the future, and an accounting is ancillary to such an injunction. 89. Plaintiffs ask that a constructive trust for the benefit of the Plaintiffs and the members of the Class be imposed on the proceeds collected by Maccabees as a result of the unauthorized COI charges. PRAYER FOR RELIEF WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs, SUSAN MILLER, Dr. TASSOS P. NASSOS individually and as Trustee of the living trust of Tassos Nassos and the irrevocable trust of Mary Nassos, MARY NASSOS as Trustee for the irrevocable trust of Dr. Tassos Nassos and JAMES MILLER, as Trustee for the irrevocable trust of Dr. Michael Marchi, pray that this Court: (A) . Certify this action as a class action and appoint SUSAN MILLER, Dr. TASSOS P. NASSOS individually and as Trustee of the irrevocable trust of Tassos Nassos and the irrevocable trust of Mary Nassos, MARY NASSOS. as Trustee for the irrevocable trust of Dr. Tassos Nassos and JAMES MILLER, as Trustee for the irrevocable trust of Dr. Michael Marchi, as representatives of the Class and their attorneys as Class Counsel; (B) Declare that Defendant has breached its contract with Plaintiffs and the Class by increasing the cost of insurance rates in violation of the terms of their insurance policies; 24 (C) Enter judgment against Defendant requiring that all money collected by MACCABEES as a result of its increases in the cost of insurance rates that were not authorized by its contract be disgorged and repaid to the Class, plus statutory or common law prejudgement interest or at a rate called for under the policy terms — whichever is higher; (D) Award reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs as provided by the Illinois Consumer Fraud Act (815 LCS 505/10a(c)); (E) Permanently enjoin MACCABEES from assessing these improper charges. (©) That MACCABEES be compelled to account to the Plaintiffs and members of the Class as to all the amounts charged for the COI increase separately for charges based upon (1) the false representation of "new federal corporate insurance taxes" and (2) an alleged increase in "AIDS-related deaths." (G)_ That MACCABEES credit to the policies of the Plaintiffs and members of the Class as a result of the unauthorized COI increase such sum as may be found due to the Plaintiffs and members of the Class. 25 (H) That this Court impose a constructive trust upon the proceeds collected by MACCABEES as a result of the unauthorized COI charges, naming the Plaintiffs and members of the Class as beneficiaries. (1) Any other relief that the Court deems just. One of Plaintiffs’ Attomeys Dated: July 22, 1999 Christopher V. Langone Joel D.
