Adjustments will end on the earlier of the following:

  1. the date the Maximum Benefit Period is satisfied;
  2. the date you cease to be Disabled;
  3. the date you cease to provide satisfactory proof of ongoing Disability; or
  4. the date the number of adjustments made exceed the Maximum Number of Adjustments shown in Section II – Schedule of Insurance.
The LTD Monthly Benefit Amount will be adjusted by multiplying it by the COLA Factor shown in Section II – Schedule of Insurance.
