NOTES:

1. The rates are for ages at the nearest birthday.

2. For immediate gift annuities, these rates will result in a charitable deduction of more than 10% if the CMFR is 4.0% or higher, whatever the payment frequency. If the CMFR is less than 4.0%, the deduction will be less than 10% when annuitants are below certain ages.

3. For deferred gift annuities with longer deferral periods, the rates may not pass the 10% test when the CMFR is low.

4. To avoid adverse tax consequences, the charity should reduce the gift annuity rate to whatever level is    necessary to generate a charitable deduction in excess of 10%.
