If the scheme is not underfunded, the policy will continue as it is.

If the scheme is underfunded, then the company will give the Policyholder 30 day’s period to pay additional contributions to address the underfunding of the scheme. If additional contributions are not received within the stated period, then the company will terminate the policy and refund the entire amount available in the policy account to the Policyholder. Thereafter the Company shall cease to be liable for any benefit payable under the policy. Once policy is terminated, it cannot be reinstated.
