A. For preneed insurance policies issued on or after January 1, 2009, and before January 1, 2012, the 2001 CSO Mortality Table may be used as the minimum standard for reserves and minimum standard for nonforfeiture benefits for both male and female insureds pursuant to the requirements of the rules entitled "Use of the 2001 CSO Mortality Table in Determining Minimum Reserve Liabilities and Nonforfeiture Benefits (14VAC5-321)."

The notification shall include:

1. A complete list of all preneed insurance policy forms that use the 2001 CSO as a minimum standard;

2. A certification signed by the appointed actuary stating that the reserve methodology employed by the company in determining reserves for the preneed insurance policies issued after January 1, 2009, and using the 2001 CSO as a minimum standard, develops adequate reserves (for the purposes of this certification, the preneed insurance policies using the 2001 CSO as a minimum standard cannot be aggregated with any other insurance policies.); and

3. Supporting information regarding the adequacy of reserves for preneed insurance policies issued after January 1, 2009, and using the 2001 CSO as a minimum standard for reserves.
