SureLC FAQ

Do I have to install software onto my computer to use SureLC? No, you do not have to install software to enjoy the benefits of SureLC. You can access SureLC through a web link on the Neishloss & Fleming, Inc. website.

How long does it take to set up my SureLC agent profile? You can be set up in SureLC and ready to submit contracting through SureLC in about 8 minutes.

Will I be required to complete a new agent profile each time I log into SureLC? No! After you complete your initial agent profile in SureLC, your information will be saved for the next time you want to contract for a carrier.

Can I select and submit contracting for multiple carriers at one time using SureLC? You will be able to submit multiple contracts while logged in to SureLC; however you cannot select multiple carrier contracts at one time because SureLC does ask additional questions based upon the carrier selected.

How do I electronically sign the contracting forms in SureLC? You have two options for loading your signature into the SureLC website.

The first option is to physically sign the Agent Signature document, scan it into your computer, and manually attach the document. The second option is to use your mouse to create an e-signature in the SureLC database. When completing the Agent Profile section of your profile, you will have the option to select the method you wish to use.

How do I get a copy of my voided check, E&O, and Signature Page into SureLC? You have a few options of uploading this information into the SureLC database. The first option is to scan and upload a copy of the documents and manually attach them to SureLC. The second option (which is a new feature to SureLC) is to use your computer’s webcam and take a picture of the documents. The webcam picture will automatically load the documents into the documents tab of SureLC.

If appointment fees are required for a carrier, am I able to pay them through SureLC via credit card? Unfortunately, if an appointment fee is required, you will need to send a check to Neishloss & Fleming, Inc. via USPS as SureLC is not set up to accept fee payment electronically. The fees can be mailed to:

Neishloss & Fleming, Inc. Attn: Administrative Division 2275 Swallow Hill Rd. Building 300 Pittsburgh, PA 15220

Commission Schedule – PLRAGT12 Page 2 of 3 May 2012

If the GA has signed an Advance Commission Addendum (“Addendum”) and commissions have been advanced on a life Certificate issued on or after the effective date of the Addendum (defined as the date that Foresters processed the Addendum) and pursuant to the terms thereof, the GA shall repay immediately to Foresters an amount equal to the difference between commissions advanced less the portion of commissions earned based on premiums paid to Foresters. If the GA’s signed Advance Commission Addendum is revoked by Foresters, then commissions on Certificates issued on or after the effective date of that revocation shall, subject to the provision for Non-Accidental Death in First year below, be deemed to have been earned on the date that a premium is received by Foresters and credited to the GA’s account, and shall not be charged back on any Certificate that goes out of force (other than product not taken) in the first twelve months of the first Certificate year. If the GA has not signed an Advance Commission Addendum, commissions shall, subject to the provision for Non-Accidental Death in First Year below, be deemed to have been earned on the date that a premium is received by Foresters and credited to the GA’s account, and shall not be charged back on any Certificate that lapses or otherwise goes out of force (other than product not taken) in the first twelve months of the first certificate year. Indebtedness It is understood and agreed that you shall be responsible to Foresters for your indebtedness owed by you, as well as for the indebtedness of your licensed Producer, if any, whether or not termination of such licensed Producer occurs. If at any time your commission account with Foresters is negative, the total negative amount will be applied as follows in that order towards the indebtedness until both a. and b. below are reduced to a zero balance:

a) 100% of your total first year and renewal commissions to your personal production indebtedness.

b) Foresters reserves the right to apply up to 100% of your first year, renewal and any other commissions to your indebtedness for any licensed Producers.

Non-Accidental Death in First Year For Plan Right Modified Death Benefit (PRML) and Plan Right Graded Death Benefit (PRGL), any first year Non-Accidental Death will generate a 100% commission chargeback (i.e. all commissions are considered not earned and are reversed) to the writing agent and the uplines. For Plan Right Level Death Benefit (PRWL), no commissions are charged back on Non-Accidental Deaths. Pre-paid Premiums First year compensation is not payable on premiums that are pre-paid for future renewal year premium payments. Where applicable, renewal commissions will be paid on those premiums as they are allocated to each Certificate year. Reinstatements If the reinstatement occurs in the first year of the Certificate and was a reinstatement of a first year lapse or surrender, first year compensation previously deducted is re-credited in the month the reinstatement was processed at Foresters.

Commission Schedule – PLRAGT12 Page 3 of 3 May 2012

Controlled Business All business written on an agent’s own life, their spouse/partner or their children/step-children is considered “controlled” business. Likewise, all business written whereby the agent is the payor, policy owner or beneficiary will also be considered “controlled” business. For all “controlled” business, the commissions will be paid out as earned regardless of your compensation arrangement. Replacement Rules A Certificate is regarded as a replacement Certificate if it meets the definition of “Replacement” set out in state regulation and Foresters written policies. First year compensation from replacements of any business from products provided by Foresters is based on the increase in annualized commissionable premium only. This is applicable to all replacements identified as such at the time of submission and for partial or full term conversions where the old Certificate has been in force for less than 24 months. Any Certificate that is issued within 13 months of a lapsed Certificate on the same life (either pre- or post-application date) will be considered a replacement and first year compensation will be reduced. No first year compensation is paid on internal rollover money. Additional compensation rules regarding Replacement Rules can be found on Foresters’ website. Returned Premiums If Foresters returns a premium or part thereof to the insured for any reason, the GA shall waive all right to the commission, if any, relating thereto and shall repay to Foresters any commission received in respect thereof.
