At the meeting various resolutions were adopted by which the

Directors (under certain necessary provisions) were empowered, on

application, to make arrangements by which the great body of the

members will be secured, after a fixed period, from any charge for

additional Premiums, in the event of their going beyond the limits

of Europe, or entering into military or naval service; and

generally to exempt their Policies from any ground of forfeiture

whatever, excepting fraud or intentional falsehood. The effect of

these alterations must be to enhance greatly the value of the

Policies as marketable securities; and the Directors feel

satisfied that they secure the Institution against any appreciable

risk, by providing that the exemption shall not in any case take

effect until after the lapse of five years from the date of the

policy.

Forms of proposal, prospectus, copies of the annual reports, and

every information will be forwarded free on application at the

office in London, 12. Moorgate Street.
