1. A provision that the viatical settlement provider will effect the transfer of the amount of the death benefit only to the extent or portion of the amount viaticated. Benefits in excess of the amount viaticated shall be paid directly to the viator's beneficiary by the insurer;

2. A provision that the viatical settlement provider will, upon acknowledgment of the perfection of the transfer, send to the viator a copy of the instrument sent from the insurer to the viatical settlement provider that acknowledges the viator's interest in the policy; and
