Title: Indexed Annuities and Certain Other Insurance Contracts
Abstract: On January 8, 2009, the Commission issued a release adopting Rule 151A under the Securities Act. Rule 151A defines the terms “annuity contract” and “optional annuity contract” under the Securities Act. The rule was intended to clarify the status under the federal securities laws of indexed annuities, under which payments to the purchaser are dependent on the performance of a securities index. On July 12, 2010, a Federal appeals court issued an order vacating rule 151A. The Commission issued a release withdrawing Rule 151A.
