Section 3.301 - Purpose and Scope(a) This subchapter is promulgated to regulate life insurance policies which have the following characteristics: (1) the premium for the policy is guaranteed for an initial period of time but subsequent to such initial period, a maximum premium charge is specified in the policy; thereafter, the insurer reserves the right to charge a lesser unspecified amount (this type of policy is hereinafter referred to as "an indeterminate premium reduction policy");(2) one of the purposes of the policy is to provide insureds with insurance coverage at a lower initial premium than would be obtainable from the insurer if the premiums were required to be unchangeable by the insurer for the life of the policy.(b) A major purpose of this subchapter is to promote an accurate presentation and description to the insurance-buying public of the indeterminate premium reduction policy. Adequate disclosure is one of the principal objectives of the sections. The sections attempt to ensure that prospective insureds receive a fair, adequate, and accurate impression of the true nature of the indeterminate premium reduction policy. Some of the sections also give notice of certain legal interpretations. The sections are supplementary to and cumulative of other statutes and rules including those promulgated under authority of Insurance Code Chapter 541. This subchapter is applied and interpreted in accordance with the foregoing purposes.28 Tex. Admin. Code § 3.301
