CHAIR BUNDE objected  for discussion purposes and  asked Ms. Seay                                                               
to explain it.                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                
MS. WILLOW SEAY,  staff to Representative Coghill,  sponsor of HB

floor and that the sponsor would  feel more comfortable if it was                                                               
removed because it adds confusion to the bill.                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                
MS.  KATIE  CAMPBELL,  Life  and   Health  Actuary,  Division  of                                                               
Insurance,  explained that  the amendment  proposed on  the House                                                               
floor  was intended  to make  sure that  it would  only apply  to

So  if anyone  has an  annuity  contract today,  it won't  change
