Most life insurance policies include asuicide clause, typically lasting 2 years in Oklahoma (Title 36 O.S. § 4004), which limits the insurer’s liability if the insured commits suicide within that period. If suicide occurs within the clause’s timeframe (e.g., 13 months), the insurer is generally not liable to pay the death benefit and instead refunds the premiums paid. However, the question emphasizes the policy’s expressed provision limiting liability, suggesting no payout beyond premiums, making “not liable to make any payouts” the most accurate choice. Insanity is not a standard exception unless specified.
Option A: Incorrect. While premium refunds are common, the question emphasizes no payouts, aligning with the provision’s limit.
Option B: Correct. The insurer is not liable to make any payouts due to the suicide clause.
Option C: Incorrect. The full value is not paid within the suicide clause period.
Option D: Incorrect. Insanity is not a standard exception in suicide clauses unless explicitly stated.
