(a) The following provisions may in substance be included in a variable life insurance policy or related form delivered or issued for delivery in this Commonwealth:
(1) An exclusion for suicide within 2 years of the issue date of the policy.

(2) Incidental insurance benefits offered on a fixed or variable basis.
(3) A provision allowing the policyholder to elect, in writing, in the application for the policy or thereafter, an automatic premium loan on a basis not less favorable than that required of policy loans under § 82.25 (relating to policy loan provisions); except that a restriction that no more than two consecutive premiums can be paid under this provision may be imposed.
(4) A provision allowing the policyholder to make partial withdrawals. The partial withdrawal provision shall be constructed so that a variable life insurance policyholder who has not exercised the provision is not disadvantaged by the exercise thereof.
