The policy will only terminate on the earliest of the following dates:
(a) when the life assured (mother) dies and this results in the death of the foetus(es);

(c) when all the benefits are fully paid;
(d) when the policy term expires; or
(e) when we receive your written request for termination of the policy.
However, do note that as this product has no savings or investment feature, there is no cash value if the policy ends or if the policy is terminated prematurely.
