2009 Third Quarter: KC IRA & Annuity Interest Rate

Know anyone who might be interested in a no fee, retirement annuity with a
AAA rated company and a 3% minimum guaranteed interest rate for the rest of
his or her life?

IRA/Sep/TSA Annuity Interest Rate 07/01/2009 - 09/30/2009

The Flexible Premium Annuity Rate will be 3.50% plus .25% for amounts over
$10,000. 3.75% for over $10,000 is very competitive in today’s interest
rate market, especially given the reductions made by the FED on prime
rates. These rates are for payments received in New Haven July 1, 2009
through September 30, 2009, and are guaranteed till June 30, 2010. And
your annuity/IRA is guaranteed not to drop below 3.00% ever.

The interest rate for funds on deposit which have been receiving their
interest rate for one year or more will be 3.80%.

The beauty of our annuity products lie in their simplicity and their
security. Simple from the standpoint that they are fixed in nature.
They provide long-term accumulation of wealth, specifically designed for
retirement needs. There are no hidden management fees and no annual
charges. Surrender charges may apply, but are waived at time of death,
or if lifetime income is requested.

Secure because they are backed by the Knights of Columbus, an
organization that consistently earns the highest ratings from independent
rating
services while maintaining the highest ethical standards. Safety of
principal -
guaranteed. Secure settlement options - guaranteed income for life.

Our investment philosophy is consistent with the nature of the funds
entrusted to us. We invest in vehicles that generate competitive rates
for you, while assuring absolute safety of your retirement nest egg.

Whether you're looking to start a retirement savings program, or moving
substantial, or more volatile funds into "safer harbors," the Knights of
Columbus offers you, the member, programs that can help you achieve your
goals.
