Pacific Life Insurance Company is licensed to issue insurance products in all states except New York. Product/material availability and features may vary by state. Insurance products and their guarantees, including optional benefits and any crediting rates, are backed by the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company, but they do not protect the value of the variable investment options. Look to the strength of the life insurance company with regard to such guarantees as these guarantees are not backed by the broker-dealer, insurance agency, or their affiliates from which products are purchased. Neither these entities nor their representatives make any representation or assurance regarding the claims-paying ability of the life insurance company.

Pacific Life Insurance Company’s individual life insurance products are marketed exclusively through independent third-party life insurance producers, which may include bank affiliated entities. Some of these selling entities may limit availability of some optional riders based on their client’s age and other factors. Your life insurance producer can help you determine which optional riders are available and appropriate for you.
