    2. At our sole discretion, we will review and may adjust bonuses regularly (more than once a year). Any adjustments to bonuses may significantly impact the death benefit, terminal illness benefit, and surrender value of the policy. In extreme circumstances, Terminal Bonus and Surrender Bonus may even be zero.

    3. Bonus Realisation Option is available starting from the 15th Policy Anniversary. It can only be exercised once per policy year, and the request must be submitted to Manulife within 31 days after Policy Anniversary. Other terms and conditions apply.

    Policy owner may choose to receive the realised Surrender Bonus or accumulate it with Manulife to earn any interest based on the interest rate as determined by Manulife from time to time.

    4. In the event the life insured is diagnosed with a designated condition starting from the 2nd Policy Anniversary, the policy owner may apply to realise up to 100% of the Surrender Bonus. Exercisable once only.
