Under current federal tax rules, you generally may take federal income tax-free withdrawals up to your basis (total premiums paid) in the policy or loans from a life insurance policy that is not a Modified Endowment Contract (MEC). Certain exceptions may apply for partial withdrawals during the policy’s first 15 years.
If the policy is a MEC, all distributions (withdrawals or loans) are taxed as ordinary income to the extent of gain in the policy, and may also be subject to an additional 10% premature distribution penalty prior to age 59½, unless certain exceptions are applicable. Loans and partial withdrawals will decrease the death benefit and cash value of your life insurance policy and may be subject to policy limitations and income tax.
In addition, loans and partial withdrawals may cause certain policy benefits or riders to become unavailable and may increase the chance your policy may lapse. If the policy lapses, is surrendered or becomes a MEC, the loan balance at such time would generally be viewed as distributed and taxable under the general rules for distribution of policy cash values.

AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company and MONY Life Insurance Company of America also offer a universal life insurance policy with an index-linked interest option called BrightLife Protect. BrightLife Protect contains many similar provisions to BrightLife Grow; however, it is designed to provide comparatively more cost effective death benefit protection. BrightLife Grow also provides death benefit protection, but is designed with more of a focus upon the potential accumulation of higher cash values. With higher funding levels, BrightLife Grow would generally be expected to provide higher cash values than BrightLife Protect for the same insured at the same face amount. With relatively lower funding levels for the same insured, BrightLife Protect is likely to be more efficient in providing death benefit protection.
