Official statutory text
(a) Notwithstanding the requirements of Section 1107.003, an annuity contract may provide that the company has the option to terminate the contract by making a cash payment of the then present value of that portion of the paid-up annuity benefit if:
(1) no considerations are received under the contract for two years; and
(2) at maturity, payments on the portion of the paid-up annuity benefit on the plan stipulated in the contract attributable to considerations paid before that period would be less than $20 each month.
(b) If an annuity contract contains a provision permitted under Subsection (a):
(1) the present value of a portion of a paid-up annuity benefit paid under that provision must be computed on the basis of the mortality table, if any, and interest rates specified in the contract for determining the paid-up annuity benefit; and
(2) a payment made under that provision relieves the company of any further obligation under the contract.
