The Deferred-Payment Gift Annuity

How Does It Work

1. Transfer cash or other property to the University of Michigan
   
   
2. The University of Michigan guarantees to make lifetime payments—for up to two annuitants—beginning at a future date of your choosing
   
   

Benefits

• Guaranteed payments for life that are favorably taxed
  
  
1. When gift is funded with cash, part of payment will be tax-free
   
   
2. When gift is funded with appreciated property, part will be taxed as capital gain, part will be tax-free, and part will be taxed as ordinary income
   
   

• Federal income-tax deduction for a portion of your gift
  
  
• Gift will provide generous support for the University of Michigan
