§ 26.1-33-06 — Provisions prohibited in life policy

No life insurance policy may be issued or delivered in this state if it contains any of the
following:
1. A provision for forfeiture of the policy for failure to repay any loan on the policy, or to
pay interest on such loan, while the total indebtedness on the policy is less than the
loan value thereof; or any provision for forfeiture for failure to repay any such loan or to
pay interest on the loan unless the provision contains a stipulation that no forfeiture
occurs until at least one month after notice has been mailed by the company to the
last-known address of the insured and of the assignee, if any.
2. A provision limiting the time within which any action may be commenced to less than
five years after the claim for relief accrues.
3. A provision by which the policy purports to be issued or take effect more than six
months before the original application for the insurance was made. This subsection
does not prohibit the exchange, alteration, or conversion of any policy of life insurance.
4. A provision for any mode of settlement at maturity of less value than the amount
insured on the face of the policy plus dividend additions, if any, less any indebtedness
to the company on the policy and less any premium that by the terms of the policy may
be deducted.
