The request shall address the necessity and equitability to all policyholders of the deferral;  (iii) A statement of the mortality table and interest rates used in calculating any minimum paid-up annuity, cash surrender or death benefits that are guaranteed under the contract, together with sufficient information to determine the amounts of those benefits;  (iv) A statement that any paid-up annuity, cash surrender or death benefits available under the contract are not less than the minimum benefits required by any statute of the state in which the contract is delivered and an explanation of the manner in which the benefits are altered by the existence of any additional amounts the company credits to the contract, any indebtedness to the company on the contract or any prior withdrawals from or partial surrenders of the contract;  (v) Any contract which does not provide cash surrender benefits or does not provide death benefits at least equal to the minimum nonforfeiture amount prior to the commencement of any annuity payments shall include a statement in a prominent place in the contract that those benefits are not provided;  (vi) Notwithstanding the requirements of this section, any deferred annuity contract may provide that if no considerations are received under a contract for a period of two (2) full years and the portion of the paid-up annuity benefit at maturity on the plan stipulated in the contract arising from considerations paid prior to the period would be less than twenty dollars ($20.00) monthly, the company, at its option, may terminate the contract by payment in cash of the then present value of the portion of the paid-up annuity benefit, calculated on the basis of the mortality table and interest rate specified in the contract for determining the paid-up annuity benefit, and by that payment is relieved of any further obligation under the contract.
