HRS §431:10D-106

Required rules for reversionary annuity contracts

This section says that any reversionary annuity contract sold in Hawaii must include certain standard provisions. It allows the insurer to reduce payments instead of deducting overdue amounts, and lets the contract be reinstated within three years if you pay what you owe. It does not apply to annuities inside life insurance policies.
