Combination of whole life and level term that provides income to a beneficiary for a selected period of time (e.g., 20 years) if an insured dies during that period. At the end of the income-paying period the beneficiary also receives the entire face amount of the policy. If an insured dies after the end of the selected period, the beneficiary receives only the face value of the policy. The remainder of the benefits are the same as under the family income policy.
