10273.3
. The term "guaranteed renewable policy" as used in this
chapter (commencing with Section 10270) means a policy which the
insured has the right to continue in force subject to its terms by
the timely payment of premium (a) until at least age 50, or (b) in
the case of a policy issued after age 44, for at least five years
from its date of issue during which period the insurer has no right
to make unilaterally any change in any provision of the policy while
the policy is in force, except that the insurer may, in accordance
with the provisions of the policy, make changes in premium rates as
to all insureds who were placed in the same class for purposes of
rate determination in the process of issuance of the policy or making
it guaranteed renewable. Such a policy may use any of the provisions
in Section 10291.6, 10350.2, 10350.4 or 10369.7, which may be used
in noncancelable policies.
