The rules for the distribution' of the-Surplus Funds or
Profits in this Society are framed on the most equitable prin-
ciples ; the Assured participating therein according to
amount and endurance of their respective Policies. By the
laws of the Society, regulating the distribution of the Sur-
plus Funds, Additions fall to b made to the Policies at each
period of Investigation, in proportion to the amount assured,
and the number of annual premiums previously paid; and a
Contingent Prospective Addition is also declared to meet the
case of persons dying between two periods of investigation,
such Contingent Prospective Addition being calculated in
proportion to the number of annual premiums paid during
the interval, not only on the Sum Assured, but also on the
Vested Additions previously declared. Parties dying
within
five years after the date of their Assurances receive no Addi-
tions, any order previously made for Additions to such Poli-
cies becoming thereby vacated; but in the event of the par-
ties surviving the period of five years, the Additions previ-
ously declared take full effect from the date of the Policy.
The next Periodical Investigation takes place on the Ist of
January, 1846.
On application, Parties may convert their Bonus Additions
into an equivalent Deduction from their future annual Pre.
miums, or may receive the value of their Additions in ready
Money.
The Directors are empowered to grant Loans to Members,
on the security of their Policies, to the extent of nine-tenths
of their value at the time, provided such proportion of the
value shall not be less than £5O.
Intending Assurers may,
from the above, satisfy them-
selves, that independently of this Society's large Accumula-
ted Fund and Annual revenue, and other advantages neces-
sarily arising from its long, steady, and extensive business,
the Principles on which it is Founded and Conducted are of
the most Equitable character, and such as hold out the
greatest inducements to parties now wishing to become con-
nected with it.

All information may be obtained on application at the Head
Office, or at any of the Society's Agencies.
