Sec. 1101.153. COMPUTATION OF NET VALUE OF STIPULATED FORM OF INSURANCE. (a) Except as provided by Subsection (c), the net value of a life insurance policy secured under Section 1101.152 must be equal to the amount of the reserve on the policy for which premium payment is in default and on any dividend additions to that policy on the date of default, less the sum of:

(b) The reserve described by Subsection (a) excludes any reserve for disability or accidental death benefits.
(c) The net value of a life insurance policy that is secured under Section 1101.152 for a policy other than an industrial life insurance policy and that is issued to insure a female risk may be computed using an age not more than three years younger than the actual age of the insured if the policy uses the same age differential to compute the policy reserve.
(d) Except as provided by Subsection (e), the amount of the policy reserve under Subsection (a) must be computed according to the mortality table, interest rate, and method adopted in the policy for computing the reserve.
(e) In computing the value of paid-up term insurance with any accompanying pure endowment, a rate of mortality may be assumed that is not more than:
(1) 130 percent of the rate of mortality according to the applicable table, or, for a substandard policy, the adopted multiple of that mortality rate, if the American Men Ultimate Table of Mortality or the Commissioners 1941 Standard Ordinary Mortality Table is adopted for computing the reserve; or
(2) the rate of mortality shown by the Commissioners 1958 Extended Term Insurance Table, or, for a substandard policy, the adopted multiple of that mortality rate, if the Commissioners 1958 Standard Ordinary Mortality Table is adopted for computing the reserve.
(f) Subject to Subsection (g), a life insurance policy must state:
(1) the amount and term of the insurance to be secured in accordance with Section 1101.152 computed as if there were no indebtedness on the policy and no dividend additions to the policy; and
(2) the mortality table, interest rate, method, and, if the policy is issued to insure the life of a woman, any age differential, that will be used to compute the policy reserve.
(g) A mortality table, interest rate, method, or age differential stated under Subsection (f) must be authorized by law to compute the reserve liability on the policy.
