The HSBC AI Global Tactical Index (the “AiGT Index”) is the exclusive property of HSBC Bank plc (“HSBC”) and administered, calculated, and published by Solactive AG (“Solactive”). HSBC, AiGT, and “HSBC AI Global Tactical Index” (collectively, the “AiGT Marks”) are trademarks or service marks of HSBC and have been licensed by HSBC and sub-licensed by Ibexis Life & Annuity Insurance Company (the “Company”) for use in a fixed indexed annuity offered by the Company. The fixed indexed annuity is not, in whole or in part, sponsored, structured, priced, endorsed, offered, sold, issued or promoted by HSBC, Solactive or any of their affiliates. HSBC’s only relationship to the Company is the licensing of the AiGT Index and AiGT Marks for certain purposes. Solactive’s only relationship to the Company is with respect to administering, calculating and publishing the AiGT Index. HSBC and Solactive shall not have any liability with respect to a fixed indexed annuity in which an interest crediting option is based on the AiGT Index and are not liable for any loss relating to the fixed indexed annuity, whether arising directly or indirectly from the use of the AiGT Index, its methodology, any AiGT Mark or otherwise. Neither HSBC or Solactive have any obligation to take into consideration any of the needs of the Company or any of the owners, annuitants or beneficiaries of the fixed indexed annuity in designing, calculating, administering or licensing the AiGT Index.
NONE OF HSBC, SOLACTIVE OR THEIR SUPPLIERS GUARANTEES THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY, TIMELINESS, COMPLETENESS OR AVAILABILITY OF THE AIGT INDEX OR ANY COMPONENT THEREOF OR DATA INCLUDED THEREIN, OR THAT NO ERROR, OMISSION, DELAY OR INTERRUPTION WILL EXIST THEREIN. NONE OF HSBC, SOLACTIVE OR THEIR SUPPLIERS MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, AND EACH OF HSBC, SOLACTIVE AND THEIR SUPPLIERS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL REPRESENTATIONS AND
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THOSE REGARDING (I) MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE, AND (II) THE ADVISABILITY OF ANY PERSON INVESTING IN THE FIXED INDEXED ANNUITY.
No purchaser, seller or holder of the fixed indexed annuity, or any other person or entity, should use or refer to any AiGT Mark or other HSBC trade name to sponsor, endorse, market or promote the fixed indexed annuity without a license from HSBC. Under no circumstances may any person or entity claim any affiliation or association with HSBC or Solactive without the prior written permission of HSBC or Solactive.
In calculating the performance of the AiGT Index, HSBC deducts a servicing cost of 0.50% per annum, calculated on a daily basis. Such costs may vary over time with market conditions. These costs reduce the potential positive change in the AiGT Index and thus the amount of interest that will be credited to the fixed indexed annuity option based on the AiGT Index.
The volatility control applied by HSBC may reduce the potential positive or negative change in the AiGT Index and thus the amount of interest that will be credited to the fixed indexed annuity option that is based on the AiGT Index.
Nothing provided herein should be construed as HSBC, Solactive or any of their suppliers providing tax, legal, or investment advice nor are HSBC, Solactive or any of their suppliers recommending engaging in any investment strategy or transaction.’
