The benefit expires on the certificate anniversary nearest age 65 or at the prior
termination of the certificate. This option can be added to all permanent life
insurance (except Membership Special) and renewable level term life insurance
certificates only. Option issued from

total and continuous for six months before a claim can be filed, except
for the loss of sight of
both eyes, or the use of both hands or both feet or one hand and
foot; and

incapable of engaging in any occupation for which the insured has been
trained, and is under the care of a licensed physician.
