RISKS
|
||||||||
|
Risk of Loss
|
You may lose money by investing in the Contract.
|
|||||||
|
Not a Short-Term Investment
|
The Contract is not a short-term investment and is not appropriate if you need ready access to cash. Withdrawal charges will reduce the value of your Contract if you withdraw money during the Accumulation Phase. The benefits of tax deferral and living benefit protections also mean the Contract is more beneficial to investors with a long time horizon. Tax penalties may apply to withdrawals taken before age 59 ½. Transfer limits and fees designed to deter marketing timing may apply under policies designed to deter frequent trading and market timing.
|
|||||||
|
Risks Associated with Investment Options
|
Investment in the Contract is subject to the risk of poor investment performance and can vary depending on the performance of the Portfolios available under the Contract. Each Portfolio has its own unique risks. You should review these Portfolios before making an investment decision.
|
|||||||
|
Insurance Company Risks
|
Investment in the Contract is subject to the risks related to Symetra Life Insurance Company. Any obligations, (including obligations related to the Symetra Fixed Account and Sub-accounts), guarantees, and benefits provided for under the Contract are subject to our financial strength and claims-paying ability. More information about us, including our financial strength ratings, is available upon request by calling 1-800-796-3872, or visiting us at www.symetra.com/regulatoryreports
|
|||||||
|
RESTRICTIONS
|
||||||||
|
Investments
|
You may allocate amounts under the Contract to one or more of the Sub-accounts available to you. Certain Sub-accounts are closed to new investors and only available to Contract Owners who have been continuously invested in them as of a certain date. Once a Contract Owner has transferred the entire value out of one of these closed Sub-accounts, the Sub-account is no longer available to the Contract Owner for investment. A transfer charge may apply for each transfer in excess of 12 transfers in a Contract Year. You may also allocate money to the Symetra Fixed Account, which credits guaranteed interest rates. We reserve the right to add, combine, restrict or remove any Sub-account available as an investment option under your Contract. We further reserve the right to restrict or remove the Symetra Fixed Account as an investment option available under the Contract.
|
|||||||
|
Optional Benefits
|
The Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Annual Reset Rider ("GMDB - Annual Reset") was only available for Contracts purchased between April 30, 2004 and April 30, 2010.
The Earnings Enhancement Benefit Rider ("EEB") was available only for non-qualified Contracts purchased between April 30, 2004 and April 30, 2010.
For Contracts purchased on or after April 30, 2004, the maximum amount that we will add to your Contract to satisfy the guaranteed minimum death benefit, GMDB - Annual Reset, and EEB is limited to a total of $1 million.
|
|||||||
|
TAXES
|
||||||||
|
Tax Implications
|
You should consult a competent tax professional about your individual circumstances to determine the tax implications of owning the Contract. Your Contract may have been purchased as a qualified contract that provides you certain tax deferral features under the Internal Revenue Code. You do not have to purchase an annuity contract to obtain the same type of tax deferral as provided by other qualified retirement arrangements.
All distributions other than death benefits, including surrenders, withdrawals and loans taken or secured by the Contract will be subject to ordinary income tax, and may be subject to tax penalties.
|
|||||||
|
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
|
||||||||
|
Investment Professional Compensation
|
Investment professionals who solicited sales of the Contracts receive a portion of the commission payable to the broker-dealer firm, depending on the agreement between the broker-dealer and the investment professional. We pay commissions as a percentage of Purchase Payments invested in the Contract.
An investment professional may receive different compensation for selling different investment products and may have a financial incentive to offer or recommend one investment product over another.
|
|||||||
|
Exchanges
|
An investment professional may have a financial incentive to offer you a new contract in the place of a contract you already own.
You should not exchange this Contract for a new one unless you determine, after comparing the features fees and risks of both contracts, that the exchange is preferable for you.
