Extension of time for payment of life premium.

A life company may enter into subsequent agreements in writing with the insured, which need not be attached to the policy, to extend the time for the payment of any premium or part thereof, upon condition that failure to comply with the terms of such agreement shall cause the policy to lapse as provided in said agreement or in the policy. Subject to such lien as may be created to secure any indebtedness contracted by the insured in consideration of the extension, such agreement shall not impair any right existing under the policy.
