Risk/Benefit Summary of Policy

   

Right of Return Period

You may return the Policy and receive a refund within 10 days from the date of receipt of the Policy.

Premium Payments

-

 

-

-

Generally, you must make a minimum Initial Premium payment equal to two Minimum Monthly Premiums. The minimum Initial Premium is shown in the illustration for the Policy and is shown in the Policy.

You choose the amount and timing of subsequent premium payments, within certain limits.

You may allocate your net premium payments among the Policy's available Investment Options.

Account Value

Account Value is the sum of the amounts in each Sub-Account and the Fixed Account Option with respect to the Policy.

The Policy's Account Value will reflect-

-

-

 

-

-

the premiums you pay;

the investment performance of the Sub-Accounts you select, and/or the interest credited to the Fixed Account Option;

any loans or partial withdrawals;

the charges we deduct under the Policy.

Accessing the Policy's Account Value

-

-

 

 

-

You may borrow from us using your Account Value as collateral.

You may surrender the Policy for its Cash Surrender Value. Cash Surrender Value is Account Value minus any surrender charges and the amount of any Policy Debt. The surrender charge period ends 12 years after you purchase the Policy or increase the Specified Face Amount of the Policy.

You may make a partial withdrawal of some of the Policy's Cash Surrender Value after the Policy has been in force for one year. A partial withdrawal will cause a decrease in the Specified Face Amount and any Supplemental Insurance Amount of the Policy if your death benefit option is Option A. Reducing the Cash Surrender Value with a partial withdrawal may increase the risk of Policy lapse.

Death Benefit

If the Policy is in force at the time we receive due proof of the Insured's death, we will pay the beneficiary an amount based on the death benefit option in effect, plus any supplemental benefits added to the Policy, less Policy Debt and any overdue monthly deductions.

Specified Face Amount ("SFA") is the minimum amount of life insurance in the Policy. Supplemental Insurance Amount ("SIA") is the amount of supplemental life insurance you elect.

SIA has separate charges associated with it. At this time, those charges are lower than SFA charges for the same coverage. If SIA is combined with SFA, the same amount of premium paid for the combined coverage as compared to all SFA coverage will generate faster cash value accumulation within the Policy.

At issue, the SFA may have a no-lapse guarantee period as long as 20 years. SIA's no-lapse guarantee period is limited to five years. Also, SIA will terminate at the policy anniversary on which the Insured is Attained Age 100. SFA will continue beyond the policy anniversary Insured is Attained Age 100 provided there is cash value in the Policy on that date.

-

You have a choice of two death benefit options-

 

-

the SFA plus any SIA; or

   
 

-

the sum of the SFA, any SIA and the Account Value of the Policy.

-

-

For each option, the death benefit may be greater if necessary to satisfy federal tax laws.

After the first Policy Year, you may

 

-

-

-

-

change your death benefit option;

add a SIA, if not elected at issue;

decrease the SIA; or

increase the SFA and any SIA.

-

After the fourth Policy Year, you may decrease the SFA to a level not less than the minimum specified in the Policy.

The Variable Account

-

-

-

-

-

We have established a variable separate account to fund the variable benefits under the Policy.

The assets of the variable separate account are free from our general creditor's claims.

The variable separate account is divided into Sub-Accounts.

Each Sub-Account invests exclusively in shares of a corresponding mutual fund.

When you choose Sub-Accounts in the variable separate account, your benefits will fluctuate based on certain economic conditions. These conditions include, but are not limited to

 

-

-

-

-

inflationary forces,

changes in rates of return available from different types of investments,

changes in employment rates and

the presence of international conflict.

-

-

-

With such Sub-Accounts, you assume all investment risk.

A comprehensive discussion of the risks of such Sub-Accounts may be found in the underlying Fund's prospectus.

It is unsuitable to purchase a life insurance policy as a short-term savings vehicle because investment risk is best borne over a number of years. Surrender charges may also be imposed if surrender occurs in the early Policy Years.

Investment Options

-

-

 

-

You may allocate your net premium payments among the Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account Option.

You may transfer amounts from one Sub-Account to another or to the Fixed Account Option, subject to any limits that we or the Funds may impose. We will notify you in writing of any such limitations.

You may transfer amounts from the Fixed Account Option, subject to our transfer rules in effect at time of transfer.

What If Charges and Deductions Exceed Cash Surrender Value?

-

 

-

-

 

-

Unless the No-Lapse Guarantee applies, the Policy will terminate if the Cash Surrender Value at the beginning of any Policy Month is less than the charges and deductions then due.

We will send you notice and allow you a 61 day Grace Period.

If, within the Grace Period, you do not make a premium payment sufficient to cover all charges and deductions due, the Policy will terminate at the end of the Grace Period.

If the Policy terminates, all coverage ceases and no benefits are payable.

No-Lapse Guarantee

The Policy will not terminate during the No-Lapse Guarantee Period if the premiums paid less partial withdrawals less Policy Debt exceed the sum of Minimum Monthly Premiums from the Policy Date to the Valuation Date. The No-Lapse Guarantee Period is based on the Insured's age. For the SFA, the No-Lapse Guarantee Period may not exceed 20 years. For the SIA, the No-Lapse Guarantee Period may not exceed five years.

Reinstatement

If the Policy terminates due to insufficient value, we will reinstate it within three years at your request, subject to certain conditions.

Federal Tax Considerations

Purchase of, and transactions under, the Policy may have tax consequences that you should consider. You may wish to consult a qualified tax professional prior to purchase regarding tax treatment of death benefits, loans and surrenders.

Supplemental Benefits

-

You may supplement the Policy with the following riders where available-

-

-

-

-

accelerated benefits

accidental death benefit

waiver of monthly deductions

payment of stipulated amount

-

We will deduct the cost, if any, of the rider(s) from the Policy's Account Value on a monthly basis.

The following tables describe the fees and expenses that you will pay when buying, owning and surrendering the Policy. The first table describes the fees and expenses that you will pay at the time that you buy the Policy, surrender the Policy or transfer amounts between Investment Options.

Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York

We are a stock life insurance company incorporated under the laws of New York on May 25, 1983. Our Home Office is located at 60 East 42nd Street, Suite 1115, New York, New York 10165. We are ultimately controlled by Sun Life Financial Inc. ("Sun Life Financial"). Sun Life Financial, a corporation organized in Canada, is a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with common shares listed on the Toronto, New York and Philippine stock exchanges.

 

The Variable Account

We established Variable Account D on April 24, 2003, pursuant to a resolution of our Board of Directors. The Variable Account may be used to fund benefits payable under life insurance policies issued by us. We are obligated to pay all benefits payable under the Policy.

We own the assets of the Variable Account. The income, gains or losses, realized or unrealized, from assets allocated to the Variable Account are credited to or charged against the Variable Account without regard to our other income, gains or losses.

We will at all times maintain assets in the Variable Account with a total market value at least equal to the reserves and other liabilities relating to the variable benefits under all policies participating in the Variable Account. The assets of the Variable Account are insulated from our general liabilities and may not be charged with our liabilities from our other business. Our obligations under those policies are, however, our general corporate obligations.

The Variable Account is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act") as a unit investment trust. Registration under the 1940 Act does not involve any supervision by the SEC of the management or investment practices or policies of the Variable Account.

The Variable Account is divided into Sub-Accounts. Each Sub-Account invests exclusively in shares of a corresponding investment portfolio of a registered investment company (commonly known as a mutual fund). We may in the future add new or delete existing Sub-Accounts. The income, gains or losses, realized or unrealized, from assets allocated to each Sub-Account are credited to or charged against that Sub-Account without regard to the other income, gains or losses of the other Sub-Accounts. All amounts allocated to a Sub-Account will be used to purchase shares of the corresponding mutual fund. The Sub-Accounts will at all times be fully invested in mutual fund shares. The Variable Account may contain certain sub-accounts which are not available under the Policy.

 

The Funds

The Policy offers a number of Fund options, which are briefly discussed below. Each Fund is a mutual fund registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, or a separate series of shares of such a mutual fund. More comprehensive information, including a discussion of potential risks, is found in the current prospectuses for the Funds (the "Fund Prospectuses"). The Fund Prospectuses should be read in connection with this prospectus. A copy of each Fund Prospectus may be obtained without charge by calling (800) 702-6998, or writing to us at our Service Office, One Sun Life Executive Park, Wellesley Hills, Massachusetts 02481.

Although the investment objectives and policies of the Funds may be similar to those of other mutual funds managed by the Funds' investment advisers, the investment results of the Funds can differ significantly from those of such other mutual funds.

Some of the Funds' investment advisers may compensate us for administering the Funds as investment options under the Policy. Such compensation is paid from advisers' assets.

The Funds may also be available to separate accounts offering variable annuity and variable life products of other affiliated and unaffiliated insurance companies, as well as our other separate accounts. Although we do not anticipate any disadvantages in this, there is a possibility that a material conflict may arise between the interests of the Variable Account and one or more of the other separate accounts participating in the Funds. A conflict may occur due to a change in law affecting the operations of variable life and variable annuity separate accounts, differences in the voting instructions of policyowners and those of other companies, or some other reason. In the event of conflict, we will take any steps necessary to protect policyowners, including withdrawal of the Variable Account from participation in the Funds which are involved in the conflict or substitution of shares of other Funds.

 

Fees and Expenses of the Funds

Fund shares are purchased at net asset value, which reflects the deduction of investment management fees and certain other expenses. The management fees are charged by each Fund's investment adviser for managing the Fund and selecting its portfolio of securities. Other Fund expenses can include such items as interest expense on loans and contracts with transfer agents, custodians and other companies that provide services to the Fund.

The Fund expenses are assessed at the Fund level and are not direct charges against Variable Account assets or reductions from Cash Values. These expenses are taken into consideration in computing each Fund's net asset value, which is the share price used to calculate the Unit Values of the Variable Account. Thus, you indirectly bear the fees and expenses of the Funds you select. The table presented earlier shows annual expenses paid by the Funds as a percentage of average net assets.

The management fees and other expenses of the Funds are more fully described in the Fund Prospectuses. The information relating to the Fund expenses was provided by the Fund and was not independently verified by us.

 

Our General Account

Our general account consists of all of our assets other than those in our variable separate accounts. Subject to applicable law, we have sole discretion over the investment of our general account assets.

The Fixed Account Option is not a security and the general account is not an investment company. Interests in our general account offered through the Fixed Account Option have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and our general account has not been registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

You may allocate net premiums to the Fixed Account Option and may transfer a portion of your investments in the Sub-Accounts to the Fixed Account Option. You may also transfer a portion of your investment in the Fixed Account Option to any of the variable Sub-Accounts. Transfers may be subject to certain restrictions.

An investment in the Fixed Account Option does not entitle you to share in the investment experience of our general account. Instead, we guarantee that your fixed account investment will accrue interest daily at an effective annual rate of at least 3%, without regard to the actual investment experience of our general account. We may, at our sole discretion, credit a higher rate of interest, but are not obligated to do so.

 

Investment Programs

Dollar Cost Averaging. You may select, at no extra charge, a dollar cost averaging program by allocating a minimum of $5,000 to a Sub-Account designated by us. Each month or quarter, a level amount will be transferred automatically, at no cost, to one or more Sub-Accounts chosen by you, up to a maximum of twelve. The program continues until your Account Value allocated to the program is depleted or you elect to stop the program.

The main objective of a dollar cost averaging program is to minimize the impact of short-term price fluctuations. Since the same dollar amount is transferred to other available Sub-Accounts at set intervals, dollar cost averaging allows you to purchase more Units (and, indirectly, more Fund shares) when prices are low and fewer Units (and, indirectly, fewer

Fund shares) when prices are high. Therefore, a lower average cost per Unit may be achieved over the long-term. A dollar cost averaging program allows you to take advantage of market fluctuations. However, it is important to understand that a dollar cost averaging program does not assure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market.

Asset Rebalancing. Once your money has been allocated among the Investment Options, the earnings may cause the percentage invested in each Investment Option to differ from your allocation instructions. You can direct us to automatically rebalance the policy among your Sub-Accounts to return to your allocation percentages by selecting our asset rebalancing program. The rebalancing will be on a calendar quarter, semi-annual or annual basis, depending on your instructions. The minimum amount of each rebalancing is $1,000.

There is no charge for asset rebalancing. In addition, rebalancing will not be counted against any limit we may place on your number of transfers in a Policy Year. You may not select dollar cost averaging and asset rebalancing at the same time. We reserve the right to modify, suspend or terminate this program at anytime. We also reserve the right to waive the $1,000 minimum amount for asset rebalancing.

Asset Allocation. One or more asset allocation investment programs may be made available in connection with the Policy, at no extra charge. Asset allocation is the process of investing in different asset classes -- such as equity funds, fixed income funds and money market funds -- depending on your personal investment goals, tolerance for risk, and investment time horizon. By spreading your money among a variety of asset classes, you may be able to reduce the risk and volatility of investing, although there are no guarantees, and asset allocation does not insure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market. Currently, you may select one of the asset allocation models, each of which represents a combination of Sub-Accounts with a different level of risk. These asset allocation models, as well as the terms and conditions of the asset allocation program, are fully described in a separate brochure. We may add or delete such programs in the future. If you elect an asset allocation program, we automatically rebalance your premium payments among the Sub-Accounts represented in the model you choose. We rebalance your premium payments on a

quarterly basis, without further instruction, until we receive notification that you wish to terminate the program or choose a different model. While the asset allocation models may be reviewed and changed from time to time, we will not change your original percentage allocations among the Sub-Accounts in the model you chose and will discontinue rebalancing at that time, unless you advise us otherwise. You should consult your financial adviser periodically to consider whether the model you have selected is still appropriate for you or whether you wish to change your percentage allocations.

 

About the Policy

Policy Application, Issuance and Initial Premium

To purchase a Policy, you must first submit an application to our Service Office. We may then follow certain underwriting procedures designed to determine the insurability of the proposed Insured. We offer the Policy on a regular (medical) underwriting basis and simplified underwriting basis. We may require medical examinations and further information before the proposed application is approved. Simplified underwriting is available to certain groups of Insureds, with all Insureds meeting certain other underwriting requirements. We must pre-approve any simplified underwriting arrangement. The cost of insurance rates are higher for healthy individuals when simplified underwriting is used instead of regular underwriting. Proposed Insureds must be acceptable risks based on our underwriting limits and standards. A Policy cannot be issued until the underwriting process has been completed to our satisfaction. We reserve the right to reject an application that does not meet our underwriting requirements or to apply extra charges for the underwriting classification for an Insured which will result in increased Monthly Cost of Insurance charges.

You must specify certain information in the application, including the Specified Face Amount, the death benefit option and supplemental benefits, if any. The Specified Face Amount generally may not be decreased below $100,000-the "Minimum Specified Face Amount." While your application is being reviewed, we may make available to you temporary life insurance coverage if you have signed a Policy Application and, at that same time, submitted a separate signed application for temporary coverage and made an advance payment. The temporary coverage, if available, begins on the date that separate application for it is signed, has a maximum amount and is subject to other conditions.

Pending approval of your application, any advance payments will be held in our general account. Upon approval of the application, we will issue to you a Policy on the life of the Insured. The Issue Date is the date we produce the Policy on our system and is specified in the Policy. A specified minimum Initial Premium is due and payable as of the date of issue for the Policy. The Effective Date of Coverage for the Policy will be the later of-

-

-

the Issue Date, or

the date a premium is paid equal to or in excess of the specified Initial Premium.

If an application is not approved, we will promptly return all advance payments to you.

Right of Return Period

If you are not satisfied with the Policy, it may be returned by delivering or mailing it to our Service Office or to the representative from whom the Policy was purchased within 10 days from the date of receipt of the Policy (the "Right of Return Period"). A Policy returned under this provision will be deemed void. You will receive a refund equal to the sum of all premium payments made. We will allocate the net premium payments to our general account. Upon expiration of the number of days in the Right of Return Period, as measured from the Issue Date, plus five days, the Account Value in the general account will be transferred to the Investment Options in accordance with your allocation instructions.

Premium Payments

All premium payments must be made payable to Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York and mailed to our Service Office. The Initial Premium will be due and payable as of the Policy's Issue Date. The minimum Initial Premium is, generally, two Minimum Monthly Premiums. Additional premium payments may be paid to us subject to the limitations described below.

Premium. No premium payment may be less than $50 without our consent, although we will accept a smaller premium payment if necessary to keep the Policy in force. We reserve the right not to accept a premium payment that causes the death benefit to increase by an amount that exceeds the premium received. Evidence of insurability satisfactory to us may be required before we accept any such premium. We will not accept premium payments that would, in our opinion, cause the Policy to fail to qualify as life insurance under applicable federal tax law. If a premium payment is made in excess of these limits, we will accept only that portion of the premium within those limits, and will refund the remainder to you.

After the policy anniversary on which the Insured is Attained Age 100, we will not accept any more premium payments for the Policy.

Net Premiums. The net premium is the amount you pay as the premium less the Expense Charges Applied to Premium.

Allocation of Net Premium. Except as otherwise described herein, net premium will be allocated in accordance with your allocation percentages. You must allocate at least 1% of net premium to any Investment Option you choose. Percentages must be in whole numbers. We reserve the right to limit the number of Investment Options to which you may allocate your Account Value to not more than 20 Investment Options. You may change your allocation percentages at any time by telephone or written request to our Service Office. Telephone requests will be honored only if we have a properly completed telephone authorization form for you on file. We, our affiliates and the representative from whom you purchased the Policy will not be responsible for losses resulting from acting upon telephone requests reasonably believed to be genuine. We will use reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine. You will be required to identify yourself by name and a personal identification number for transactions initiated by telephone. An allocation change will be effective as of the date we accept receipt of the request for that change.

Planned Periodic Premiums. While you are not required to make additional premium payments according to a fixed schedule, you may select a planned periodic premium schedule and corresponding billing period, subject to our limits. We will send you reminder notices for the planned periodic premium at each billing period as specified in the Policy, unless reminder notices have been suspended as described below. You are not required, however, to pay the planned periodic premium; you may increase or decrease the planned periodic premium subject to our limits, and you may skip a planned payment or make unscheduled payments. You may change your planned payment schedule or the billing period, subject to our approval. Depending on the investment performance of the Sub-Accounts you select, the planned periodic premium may not be sufficient to keep the Policy in force, and you may need to change your planned payment schedule or make additional payments in order to prevent termination of the Policy. We will suspend reminder notices at your written request, and we reserve the right to suspend reminder notices if premiums are not being paid (except for notices in connection with the grace period). We will notify you prior to suspending reminder notices.

Death Benefit

If the Policy is in force at the time of the Insured's death, we will pay the beneficiary an amount based on the death benefit option in effect once we have received Due Proof of the Insured's death. The amount payable will be:

-

-

-

-

the amount of the selected death benefit option, plus

any amounts payable under any supplemental benefit riders added to the Policy, minus

the value of any Policy Debt on the date of the Insured's death, minus

any overdue monthly deductions if death occurs during a grace period.

We will pay this amount to the beneficiary in one lump sum.

You may select between two death benefit options. You may change the death benefit option after the first Policy Year.

Option A. Under this option, the death benefit is-

-

-

the Policy's SFA plus the SIA on the date of the Insured's death; or, if greater,

the Policy's Account Value on the date of death multiplied by the applicable percentage shown in the table set forth in Appendix B.

This death benefit option should be selected if you want the death benefit to remain level over time.

Option B. Under this option, the death benefit is-

-

-

the sum of the SFA, SIA and Account Value of the Policy on the date of the Insured's death; or, if greater,

the Policy's Account Value on the date of death multiplied by the applicable percentage shown in the table set forth in Appendix B.

This death benefit option should be selected if you want your death benefit to change with the Policy's Account Value. There is no charge related to the election of Option B.

As Option B includes the Policy's Account Value, the death benefit will be impacted in a positive or negative manner by the premiums you pay, the investment performance of the Sub-Accounts you select, the interest credited to the Fixed Account Option, any loans, partial withdrawals and the charges we deduct from the Policy. For example, the death benefit may be less if there is

-

-

-

minimum premium funding,

poor investment performance of the Sub-Accounts you select,

minimum interest credited to the Fixed Account Option,

-

-

-

an unpaid loan,

a partial withdrawal and/or

maximum charge deductions.

To determine applicable future fees and charges, if you change from Option B to Option A, an increase equal to the Policy's Account Value on the effective date of the change will be applied as follows: First, to increases which remain in force, beginning with the most recent, be it SFA or SIA; second, to the initial SIA if it remains in force; lastly, to the initial SFA. Evidence of insurability is not required. To determine applicable future fees and charges, if you change

from Option A to Option B, a decrease equal to the Policy's Account Value on the effective date of the change will be applied as follows: First, to increases which remain in force, beginning with the most recent, be it SFA or SIA; second, to the initial SIA if it remains in force; lastly, to the initial SFA.

 

 

Changes in SFA and SIA

You may increase or decrease the SFA and SIA of the Policy within certain limits.

Minimum Changes. Each increase in the SFA and SIA must be at least $50,000. We reserve the right to change the minimum amount by which you may change the SFA and SIA.

Increases. After the first policy anniversary, you may request an increase in the SFA and SIA. You must provide satisfactory evidence of the Insured's insurability. Once requested, an increase will become effective at the next policy anniversary following our approval of your request. The Policy does not allow for an increase if the Insured's Attained Age is greater than 80 on the effective date of the increase.

Decreases. The SIA can be decreased after the first policy anniversary. The SFA can be decreased after the fourth policy anniversary. A decrease will become effective at the beginning of the next Policy Month following our approval of your request. The SFA after the decrease must be at least $100,000. Surrender charges will apply to decreases in the SFA during the surrender charge period except for decreases in the SFA resulting from a change in the death benefit option or a partial withdrawal.

We will apply a decrease in SFA and any SIA in the following order-

-

-

-

-

-

-

first, to the most recent increase in SIA;

second, to the next most recent increases in SIA, in reverse chronological order;

third, to the initial SIA;

fourth, to the most recent increase in SFA;

fifth, to the next most recent increases in SFA, in reverse chronological order; and

lastly, to the initial SFA.

 

Accessing Your Account Value

Surrenders and Surrender Charges

You may surrender the Policy for its Cash Surrender Value at any time while the Insured is living. If you do, the insurance coverage and all other benefits under the Policy will terminate. If you surrender the Policy and receive its Cash Surrender Value, you may incur surrender charges, taxes and tax penalties.

Cash Surrender Value is the Policy's Account Value less the sum of-

-

-

the outstanding balance of any Policy Debt; and

any surrender charges.

We will deduct surrender charges from your Account Value if you surrender the Policy or request a decrease in the SFA during the surrender charge period. There are separate surrender charges for the initial SFA and any increase in the SFA you request. The surrender charge period will start on the Policy's Issue Date and on the effective date for the increase, respectively.

We will determine your Cash Surrender Value at the next close of business on the New York Stock Exchange after we receive your written request for surrender at our Service Office.

If you surrender the Policy in the first 12 years or within the first 12 years after an increase in the SFA, we will apply a surrender charge to the initial SFA and to each increase in the SFA other than an increase resulting from a change in the death benefit option. The surrender charge will be calculated separately for the initial SFA and each increase in the SFA. The surrender charge will be an amount based on certain factors, including the Policy's SFA, the Policy's duration, the Insured's age, sex and rating class. The following are examples of surrender charges at representative Issue Ages.

First Year Surrender Charges Per $1,000 of SFA

(Non-tobacco Male)

Issue Age 25

$5.62

Issue Age 35

Issue Age 45

$11.00

Issue Age 55

$21.00

Issue Age 65

$26.10

Issue Age 75

$31.20

     

The surrender charge will be calculated based on the surrender charge percentages for the initial SFA and each increase in the SFA as shown in the table below.

A surrender charge will be applied for each decrease in the SFA except for decreases in the SFA resulting from a change in death benefit option or partial withdrawal.

On a decrease in the initial SFA, you will pay a proportion of the full surrender charge based on the ratio of the face amount decrease to the initial SFA. The surrender charge you pay on a decrease that is less than the full amount of an increase in SFA will be calculated on the same basis. Future surrender charges will be reduced by any applicable surrender charges for a decrease in the SFA.

You may allocate any surrender charges resulting from a decrease in the SFA among the Investment Options. If you do not specify the allocation, then the surrender charges will be allocated proportionally among the Investment Options in excess of any Policy Debt.

Partial Withdrawals

You may make a partial withdrawal of the Policy once each Policy Year after the first Policy Year by written request to us. Each partial withdrawal must be for at least $500, and no partial withdrawal may be made-

-

 

-

during Policy Years 2-10 for more than 20 percent of your Cash Surrender Value at the end of the first Valuation Date after we receive your request or

thereafter for more than your Cash Surrender Value.

If the applicable death benefit option is Option A, the SFA and any SIA will be decreased by the amount of the partial withdrawal. We will apply the decrease to the initial SFA and SIA and to each increase in SFA and SIA in the following order-

-

-

-

first, to the most recent increase of either SFA or SIA;

second, to the next most recent increases of either SFA or SIA, in reverse chronological order; and

third, to the initial SIA and then to the initial SFA.

Unless you specify otherwise, the partial withdrawal will be allocated proportionally among the Investment Options in excess of any Policy Debt. We will not accept requests for a partial withdrawal if the SFA remaining in force after the partial withdrawal would be less than the minimum SFA. We will effect a partial withdrawal at the next close of business on the New York Stock Exchange after we receive your written request. A partial withdrawal may result in taxes and tax penalties.

Policy Loans

Using the Policy as collateral, you may request a policy loan of up to 90% of the Policy's Cash Value, decreased by the amount of any outstanding Policy Debt on the date the policy loan is made. The Policy will terminate for no value subject to a grace period if the Policy Debt exceeds the Cash Value. During the no-lapse guarantee period, however, the Policy will not terminate if it satisfies the minimum premium test.

You may allocate the policy loan among the Investment Options. If you do not specify the allocation, then the policy loan will be allocated proportionally among the Investment Options in excess of any Policy Debt. Loan amounts allocated to the Sub-Accounts will be transferred to the Fixed Account Option. We will periodically credit interest at an effective annual rate of 3% on the loaned values of the Fixed Account Option.

Interest on the policy loan will accrue daily at 4% annually during Policy Years 1 through 15 and 3.5% annually thereafter. This interest will be due and payable to us in arrears on each policy anniversary. Any unpaid interest will be added to the principal amount as an additional policy loan and will bear interest at the same rate and will be assessed in the same manner as the prior policy loan.

The Cash Surrender Value and the Policy Proceeds are reduced by the amount of any outstanding Policy Debt.

All funds we receive from you will be credited to the Policy as premium unless we have received written notice, in a form satisfactory to us, that the funds are for loan repayment. In the event you have a loan against the Policy, it is generally advantageous to repay the loan rather than make a premium payment because premium payments incur expense charges whereas loan repayments do not. Loan repayments will first reduce the outstanding balance of the policy loan and then accrued but unpaid interest on such loans. We reserve the right to repay any loans from the Fixed Account Option prior to loans from the Variable Accounts.

A policy loan, whether or not repaid, will affect the Policy Proceeds payable upon the Insured's death and the Account Value because the investment results of the Sub-Accounts will apply only to the non-loaned portion of the Account Value. The longer a loan is outstanding, the greater the effect is likely to be and, depending on the investment results of the Sub-Accounts or the Fixed Account Option while the loan is outstanding, the effect could be favorable or unfavorable.

Short-Term Trading

The Policy is not designed for short-term trading. If you wish to employ such strategies, do not purchase a Policy. Transfer limits and other restrictions, described below, are subject to our ability to monitor transfer activity. Some Owners and their third party intermediaries engaging in short-term trading may employ a variety of strategies to avoid detection. Despite our efforts to prevent short-term trading, there is no assurance that we will be able to identify such Owners or intermediaries or curtail their trading. A failure to detect and curtail short-term trading could result in adverse consequences to Owners. Short-term trading can increase costs for all Owners as a result of excessive portfolio transaction fees. In addition, short-term trading can adversely affect a Fund's performance. If large amounts of money are suddenly transferred out of a Fund, the Fund's investment adviser cannot effectively invest in accordance with the Fund's investment objectives and policies.

The Company has policies and procedures to discourage frequent transfers of Account Value. As described below under "Transfer Privileges," the Policy includes limiting the number and timing of certain transfers, subject to exceptions described in that section and exceptions designed to protect the interest of individual Owners. The Company also reserves the right to charge a fee for transfers.

Short-term trading activities whether by an individual, a firm or a third party authorized to initiate transfer requests on behalf of Owner(s) may be subject to other restrictions as well. For example, we reserve the right to take actions against short-term trading which restrict your transfer privileges more narrowly than the policies described under "Transfer Privileges", such as requiring transfer requests to be submitted in writing through regular first-class U.S. mail (e.g., no overnight, priority or courier delivery allowed), and refusing any and all transfer instructions.

If we determine that a third party acting on your behalf is engaging (alone or in combination with transfers effected by you directly) in a pattern of short-term trading, we may refuse to process certain transfers requested by such a third party. In particular, we will treat as short-term trading activity and refuse to process any transfer that is requested by an authorized third party within 30 days of a previous transfer (whether the earlier transfer was requested by you or a third party acting on your behalf). We may also impose special restrictions on third parties that engage in reallocations of Policy values by limiting the frequency of the transfer, requiring advance notice of the transfer pursuant to in-force service agreements, and reallocating or exchanging 100% of the values in the redeeming sub-accounts.

In addition, some of the Funds reserve the right to delay or refuse purchase or transfers requests from the Variable Account if, in the judgment of the Fund's investment adviser, the Fund would be unable to invest effectively in accordance with its investment objective and policies, or the request is considered to be part of a short-term trading strategy. Accordingly, the Variable Account may not be in a position to effectuate some transfers with such Funds and therefore, will be unable to process such transfer requests. We also reserve the right to refuse requests involving transfers to or from the Fixed Account Option.

We reserve the right to waive short-term trading restrictions, where permitted by law and not adverse to the interests of the relevant underlying Fund and other shareholders, in the following instances:

-   when a new broker of record is designated for the Contract;

-   when the Participant changes;

-   when control of the Policy passes to the designated beneficiary upon the death of the Insured;

-   when necessary in our view to avoid hardship to an Owner;

-   when underlying Funds are dissolved, merged or substituted.

If short-term trading results as a consequence of waiving the restrictions against short-term trading, it could expose Owners to certain risks. The short-term trading could increase costs for all Owners as a result of excessive portfolio transaction fees. In addition, the short-term trading could adversely affect a Fund's performance. If large amounts of money are suddenly transferred out of a Fund, the Fund's investment adviser cannot effectively invest in accordance

with the Fund's investment objectives and policies. Unless the short-term trading policy and the permitted waivers of that policy are applied uniformly, some Owners may experience a different application of the policy and therefore may experience some of these risks. Too much discretion on our part in allowing the waivers of short-term trading policy could result in an unequal treatment of short-term traders by permitting some short-term traders to engage in short-term trading while prohibiting others from doing the same.

Transfer Privileges

Subject to the above special restrictions and to our rules as they may exist from time to time and to any limits that may be imposed by the Funds, you may at any time transfer to another Sub-Account all or a portion of the Account Value allocated to a Sub-Account. There is usually no charge imposed on transfers; however, we reserve the right to impose a transfer charge of $15 for each transfer above 12 transfers in any Policy Year. We will make transfers pursuant to an authorized written or telephone request to us. Telephone requests will be honored only if we have a properly completed telephone authorization form for you on file. We, our affiliates and the representative from whom you purchased the Policy will not be responsible for losses resulting from acting upon telephone requests reasonably believed to be genuine. We will use reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine. For transactions initiated by telephone, you will be required to identify yourself by name and a personal identification number.

Transfers may be requested by indicating the transfer of either a specified dollar amount or a specified percentage of the Fixed Account Option or the Sub-Account's value from which the transfer will be made. If you request a transfer based on a specified percentage of the Fixed Account Option or the Sub-Account's value, that percentage will be converted into a request for the transfer of a specified dollar amount based on application of the specified percentage to the Fixed Account Option or the Sub-Account's value at the time the request is received. We reserve the right to limit the number of Sub-Accounts to which you may allocate your Account Value to not more than 20 Investment Options.

Transfer privileges are subject to our consent. We reserve the right to impose limitations on transfers, including, but not limited to: (1) the minimum amount that may be transferred; (2) the frequency of transfers; and (3) the minimum amount that may remain in a Sub-Account following a transfer from that Sub-Account. We will notify you in writing of any such limitations. If your Policy so states in its text or via endorsement, thirty days must elapse between each

transfer.

Once during each Policy Year, you may transfer to the Fixed Account Option 100% of the Account Value attributable to the Sub-Accounts. You may apply the Cash Surrender Value to purchase a guaranteed fixed paid-up benefit. There is no charge for this transfer.

During the first 24 months the Policy is in force, you may transfer to the Fixed Account Option 100% of the Account Value attributable to the Sub-Accounts. There is no charge for this transfer.

Account Value

Your Account Value is the sum of the values in each Sub-Account of the Variable Account with respect to the Policy, plus the value of the Fixed Account Option. The Account Value varies depending upon the Premiums paid, Expense Charges Applied to Premium, Mortality and Expense Risk Charges, Monthly Expense Charges, Monthly Cost of Insurance charges, partial withdrawals, fees, policy loans and the net investment factor (described below).

The minimum guaranteed interest rate applicable to the values in the Fixed Account Option is 3% annually. Interest in excess of the guaranteed rate may be applied in such a manner as we may determine, based on our expectations of future interest, mortality costs, persistency, expenses and taxes. Interest credited will be computed on a compound interest basis.

Account Value of the Sub-Accounts. We measure the amounts in the Sub-Accounts in terms of Units and Unit Values. On any given date, the amount you have in a Sub-Account is equal to the Unit Value multiplied by the number of Units credited to you in that Sub-Account. Amounts allocated to a Sub-Account will be used to purchase

Units of that Sub-Account. Units are redeemed when you make partial withdrawals, undertake policy loans or transfer amounts from a Sub-Account, and for the payment of Monthly Expense Charges, Monthly Cost of Insurance charges, Mortality and Expense Risk Charges and other fees. The number of Units of each Sub-Account purchased or redeemed is determined by dividing the dollar amount of the transaction by the Unit Value for the Sub-Account. A Valuation Date is any day on which we, the applicable Fund, and the NYSE are open for business. For the first Valuation Date of each Sub-Account, the Unit Value is the Unit Value for said Sub-Account under Variable Account I of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.) on October 27, 2003 or such subsequent date approved by the Superintendent of the New York Insurance Department. The Unit Value for any subsequent Valuation Date is equal to the Unit Value for the preceding Valuation Date multiplied by the net investment factor (determined as provided below). The Unit Value of a Sub-Account for any Valuation Date is determined as of the close of the Valuation Period ending on that Valuation Date. The Valuation Period is the period of time from one determination of Unit Values to the next.

Transactions are processed on the date we receive a premium at our Service Office or any acceptable written or telephonic request is received at our Service Office. If your premium or request is received on a date that is not a Valuation Date, or after the close of the New York Stock Exchange on a Valuation Date, the transaction will be processed on the next Valuation Date. The Investment Start Date is the date we apply your first premium payment, which will be the later of the Issue Date, the policy date or the Valuation Date we receive a premium equal to or in excess of the initial premium.

The Account Value on the Investment Start Date equals:

-

-

the net premium received, minus

the monthly deductions due on the policy date and subsequent Monthly Anniversary Days through the Investment Start Date charged to the Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account Option.

The Account Value on subsequent Valuation Dates is equal to:

-

-

the values on the previous Valuation Date, plus

any additional premium we have received, plus or minus

-

-

-

the investment experience of the Investment Options you have selected, minus

policy charges and deductions, minus

any partial withdrawals you have made.

Net Investment Factor. The net investment factor for each Sub-Account for any Valuation Period is the quotient of (1) divided by (2) where:

(1) is the net result of-

-

-

the net asset value of a Fund share held in the Sub-Account determined as of the end of the Valuation Period, plus

the per share amount of any dividend or other distribution declared on Fund shares held in the Sub-Account if the "ex-dividend" date occurs during the Valuation Period, plus or minus

-

a per share credit or charge with respect to any taxes reserved for by us, or paid by us if not previously reserved for, during the Valuation Period which are determined by us to be attributable to the operation of the Sub-Account; and

(2) is the net asset value of a Fund share held in the Sub-Account determined as of the end of the preceding Valuation Period.

The net investment factor may be greater or less than one.

Insufficient Value. The Policy will terminate for no value, subject to a grace period described below if, on a Processing Date

-

-

the Policy's Cash Surrender Value is equal to or less than zero or

the Policy Debt exceeds the Cash Value.

During the no-lapse guarantee period, a Policy will not terminate by reason of insufficient value if it satisfies the "minimum premium test" described below.

Minimum Premium Test (No-Lapse Guarantee). A Policy satisfies the minimum premium test if the premiums paid less any partial withdrawals less any Policy Debt exceed the sum of the "Minimum Monthly Premiums" which applied to the Policy in each Policy Month from the policy date to the Valuation Date.

The applicable Minimum Monthly Premiums are specified in the Policy. We may revise the Minimum Monthly Premiums as a result of any of the following changes to a Policy:

-

-

change in SFA and SIA during the first twenty Policy Years;

change in supplemental benefit.

The revised minimum monthly premiums will be effective as of the effective date of the change to the Policy and will remain in effect until again revised by any of the above changes.

The no-lapse guarantee period will be different based on the Insured's age. In no case will it be greater than 20 years.

Grace Period. If, on a Valuation Date, the Policy will terminate by reason of insufficient value, we will allow a grace period. This grace period will allow 61 days from that Valuation Date for the payment of a premium sufficient to keep the Policy in force. Notice of premium due will be mailed to your last known address and the last known address of any assignee of record. We will assume that your last known address is the address shown on the Policy Application (or notice of assignment), unless we receive written notice of a change in address in a form satisfactory to us. If the premium due is not paid within 61 days after the beginning of the grace period, then the Policy and all rights to benefits

will terminate without value at the end of the 61 day period. The Policy will continue to remain in force during this grace period. If the Policy Proceeds become payable by us during the grace period, then any overdue monthly deductions will be deducted from the amount payable by us.

Splitting Units. We reserve the right to split or combine the value of Units. In effecting any such change, strict equity will be preserved and no change will have a material effect on the benefits or other provisions of the Policy.

Charges and Deductions

The monthly deductions described below are the Mortality and Expense Risk Charges, Monthly Expense Charges, Monthly Costs of Insurance and the charges for any supplemental benefits.

There are no monthly deductions after the policy anniversary on which the Insured is Attained Age 100.

Expense Charges Applied to Premium. We will deduct a charge from each premium payment as a sales load and for our federal, state and local tax obligations, which we will determine from time to time. The current charge is 5.25%. The maximum charge is guaranteed not to exceed 7.25%.

Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. This charge is for the mortality and expense risks we assume with respect to the Policy. It is a percentage of the Account Value of the Sub-Accounts and is deducted from the Account Value of the Investment Options in excess of Policy Debt each month.

 

 

The Mortality and Expense Risk Charge percentage is 0.60% (.05% monthly) annually for Policy Years 1 through 10 and 0.10% (.0083% monthly) annually thereafter.

The mortality risk we assume is that the group of lives insured under the Policies may, on average, live for shorter periods of time than we estimated. The expense risk we assume is that our costs of issuing and administering Policies may be more than we estimated.

Monthly Expense Charge. We will deduct from your Account Value monthly a charge of $8.00 in all years and a monthly charge based on the SFA and SIA for the first 10 Policy Years following the issuance of the Policy and for the first 10 Policy Years following the effective date of each increase in the SFA and SIA, if any, based on the amount of the increase. The Monthly Expense Charge is based on the age, sex and rating class of the Insured. Unless you direct otherwise, the Monthly Expense Charges will be deducted proportionally from the amounts in the Investment Options in excess of any Policy Debt and covers administration expenses and issuance costs.

Monthly Cost of Insurance. We deduct a Monthly Cost of Insurance charge from your Account Value to cover anticipated costs of providing insurance coverage. Unless you direct otherwise, the Monthly Cost of Insurance deduction will be charged proportionally to the amounts in the Investment Options in excess of any Policy Debt.

The Monthly Cost of Insurance equals the sum of (1), (2) and (3) where:

(1)

 

(2)

(3)

is the cost of insurance charge equal to the Monthly Cost of Insurance rate (described below) multiplied by the net amount at risk divided by 1,000;

is the monthly rider cost for any riders which are a part of the Policy; and

is any additional insurance charge calculated, as specified in the Policy, for substandard risk classifications.

The net amount at risk equals:

-

-

the death benefit divided by 1.00247; minus

your Account Value on the Processing Date prior to assessing the monthly deductions.

The cost of insurance charges described above are determined separately for the initial SFA and SIA and each increase in the SFA and SIA. In calculating the net amount at risk, the Account Value will first be allocated to the initial SFA and then to the SIA and then to each increase in the SFA or SIA in the order in which the increases were made.

The net amount at risk is affected by the performance of the investment options to which premium is allocated, the cumulative premium paid, any Policy Debt, any partial withdrawals, transaction fees and periodic charges.

If there are increases in the SFA and SIA other than increases caused by changes in the death benefit option, the cost of insurance charge described above is determined separately for the initial SFA and SIA and each increase in the SFA and SIA. In calculating the net amount at risk, your Account Value will first be allocated to the initial death benefit and then to each increase in the SFA and SIA in the order in which the increases were made.

Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates. The Monthly Cost of Insurance rates (except for any such rate applicable to an increase in the SFA and SIA) are based on the length of time the Policy has been in force, the duration of the SIA, the Insured's sex, Issue Age and rating class. The Monthly Cost of Insurance rates applicable to each increase in the

Specified Face Amount are based on the length of time the increase has been in force and the Insured's sex (in the case of non-unisex Policies), Issue Age and rating class. The Monthly Cost of Insurance rates will be determined by us from time to time based on our expectations of future experience with respect to mortality costs, persistency, interest rates, expenses and taxes, but will not exceed the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates based on the 1980 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary Smoker and Nonsmoker Mortality Tables.

Waivers and Reduced Charges

We may reduce or waive the sales load or surrender charge in situations where selling and/or maintenance costs associated with the Policies are reduced, sales of large Policies, and certain group or sponsored arrangements. In addition, we may waive charges in connection with Policies sold to our affiliates' officers, directors and employees.

We also reserve the right to reduce the Expense Charge Applied to Premium, Monthly Expense Charge and Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. We will provide you prompt notice of any reduction. Reductions will be based on uniformly applied criteria that do not discriminate unfairly against any person.

Supplemental Benefits

The following supplemental benefit riders are available. There is no charge for the accelerated benefits rider. An additional cost of insurance will be charged for each of the other riders which is in force as a part of the Monthly Cost of Insurance charge. Each rider is subject to certain limitations and termination provisions. For additional information on the riders, please ask your financial adviser.

Accelerated Benefits Rider. Under this rider, we will pay you, at your written request in a form satisfactory to us, an "accelerated benefit" if the Insured is terminally ill. An Insured is considered "terminally ill" if the Insured has a life expectancy of 12 months or less due to illness or physical condition.

The accelerated benefit payment will be equal to that portion of the Policy's death benefit requested by you, not to exceed the lesser of (a) 75% of the amount of the death benefit or (b) $250,000 (the "Accelerated Amount"), subject to certain adjustments. There is no charge for this rider.

Accidental Death Benefit Rider. Under this rider, we will pay the accidental death benefit specified in the Policy when we receive due proof of the Insured's accidental death and that death occurred while this rider was in force, on or after the Insured's first birthday and within ninety days after the date of the accident. The annual rider charge, deducted monthly from the Account Value, is based on the issue age of the Insured.

Waiver of Monthly Deductions Rider. Under this rider, we will waive the monthly deductions under the Policy retroactive to the date of total disability when the Insured suffers a total disability, if the Insured's total disability commences while this rider is in force and continues for six months. We will continue to waive the monthly deduction

for as long as the disability continues. We must receive written notice and due proof before we will waive the monthly deductions. We may require from time to time additional proof that the disability is continuing, but not more frequently than once per year after the disability has continued for two years. The rider charge, deducted monthly from the Account Value, is based on the issue age of the Insured.

Payment of Stipulated Amount Rider. Under this rider, we will make a monthly payment of the "stipulated amount" when the Insured suffers a total disability, if the Insured's total disability commences while this rider is in force and continues for six months. We will continue to make a payment of that amount for as long as the disability continues but no later than the duration of the payment option elected (Insured's age 65 or 70). We must receive written notice and due proof before we will make a payment. We may require from time to time additional proof that the disability is continuing, but not more frequently than once per year after the disability has continued for two years. The rider charge, deducted monthly from the Account Value, is based on the age and sex of the Insured.

Termination of Policy

The Policy will terminate on the earlier of the date we receive your request to surrender, the expiration date of the Grace Period without payment of premium due or the date of death of the Insured.

Reinstatement

Before the Insured's death, we may reinstate the Policy provided that the Policy has not been surrendered and you-

-

-

-

make a request for reinstatement within three years from the date of termination;

submit satisfactory evidence of insurability to us; and

pay an amount, as determined by us, sufficient to put the Policy in force.

Deferral of Payment

We will usually pay any amount due from the Variable Account within seven days after the Valuation Date following our receipt of written notice satisfactory to us giving rise to such payment or, in the case of death of the Insured, Due Proof of such death. Payment is subject to our rights under the Policy's incontestability and suicide provisions. Payment of any amount payable from the Variable Account on death, surrender, partial withdrawal or policy loan may be postponed whenever:

-

-

the New York Stock Exchange is closed (except for normal holiday closings), or

the Securities and Exchange Commission has determined that a state of emergency exists which may make such payment impractical.

We may defer payment from the Fixed Account Option for a period up to six months.

Rights of Owner

While the Insured is alive, unless you have assigned any of these rights, you may:

-

-

-

-

-

transfer ownership to a new owner;

name a contingent owner who will automatically become the owner of the Policy if you die before the Insured;

change or revoke a contingent owner;

change or revoke a beneficiary;

exercise all other rights in the Policy;

-

-

increase or decrease the SFA and SIA, subject to the other provisions of the Policy;

change the death benefit option, subject to the other provisions of the Policy.

When you transfer your rights to a new owner, you automatically revoke any prior contingent owner designation. When you want to change or revoke a prior beneficiary designation, you have to specify that action. You do not affect a prior beneficiary when you merely transfer ownership, or change or revoke a contingent owner designation.

You do not need the consent of a beneficiary or a contingent owner in order to exercise any of your rights. However, you must give us written notice satisfactory to us of the requested action. Your request will then, except as otherwise specified herein, be effective as of the date you signed the form, subject to any action taken before we received it.

Rights of Beneficiary

The beneficiary has no rights in the Policy until the death of the Insured. If a beneficiary is alive at that time, the beneficiary will be entitled to payment of the Policy Proceeds as they become due.

Other Policy Provisions

Addition, Deletion or Substitution of Investments. We may decide to add new Sub-Accounts at any time. Also, shares of any or all of the Funds may not always be available for purchase by the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account, or we may decide that further investment in any such shares is no longer appropriate. In either event, shares of other registered open-end investment companies or unit investment trusts may be substituted both for Fund shares already purchased by the Variable Account and/or as the security to be purchased in the future, provided that these substitutions have been approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission, to the extent necessary. In addition, the investment policies of the Sub-Accounts will not be changed without the approval of the Insurance Superintendent of the State of New York. We also reserve the right to eliminate or combine existing Sub-Accounts or to transfer assets between Sub-Accounts. In the event of any substitution or other act described in this paragraph, we will notify you and make any appropriate amendments to the Policy to reflect the substitution.

If you object to a material change in the investment policy of the Sub-Accounts or to a proposed material change which later becomes effective, you may transfer the Account Value in the Sub-Accounts to the Fixed Account Option within 60 days after the effective date of the material change. No evidence of insurability is required.

Entire Contract. Your entire contract with us consists solely of the Policy, including the attached copy of the Policy Application and any attached copies of supplemental applications and any riders and endorsements.

Alteration. Sales representatives do not have any authority to either alter or modify the Policy or to waive any of its provisions. The only persons with this authority are our president, actuary, secretary or one of our vice presidents.

Modification. Upon notice to you, we may modify the Policy if such a modification-

-

 

-

 

-

-

is necessary to make the Policy or the Variable Account comply with any law or regulation issued by a governmental agency to which we are or the Variable Account is subject;

is necessary to assure continued qualification of the Policy under the Internal Revenue Code or other federal or state laws as a life insurance policy;

is necessary to reflect a change in the operation of the Variable Account or the Sub-Accounts; or

adds, deletes or otherwise changes Sub-Account options.

We also reserve the right to modify certain provisions of the Policy as stated in those provisions. In the event of any such modification, we may make appropriate amendments to the Policy to reflect such modification.

Assignments. During the lifetime of the Insured, you may assign all or some of your rights under the Policy. All assignments must be filed at our Service Office and must be in written form satisfactory to us. The assignment will then be effective as of the date you signed the form, subject to any action taken before we acknowledge receipt. We are not responsible for the validity or legal effect of any assignment.

Nonparticipating. The Policy does not pay dividends. The Policy does not share in our profits or surplus earnings.

Misstatement of Age or Sex. If the age or sex of the Insured is stated incorrectly, the amounts payable by us will be adjusted as follows:

     Misstatement discovered at death-The death benefit will be recalculated to that which would be purchased by the most recently charged Monthly Cost of Insurance rate for the correct age or sex.

     Misstatement discovered prior to death-Your Account Value will be recalculated from the policy date using the Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates based on the correct age or sex.

Suicide. If the Insured commits suicide within two years after the Policy's Issue Date, we will not pay any part of the Policy Proceeds. We will refund the premiums paid, less the amount of any Policy Debt and any partial withdrawals.

If the Insured commits suicide within two years after the effective date of an increase in the SFA or SIA, then our liability as to that increase will be the cost of insurance for that increase.

Incontestability. All statements made in the application or in a supplemental application are representations and not warranties. We relied and will rely on those statements when approving the issuance, increase in SFA, increase in SIA, increase in death benefit over premium paid, change in death benefit option or reinstatement of the Policy. No statement can be used by us in defense of a claim unless the statement was made in the application or in a supplemental application. After the Policy has been in force during the lifetime of the Insured for a period of two years from its Issue Date, we cannot contest it except for non-payment of premiums. However, any increase in the SFA or SIA which is effective after the Issue Date will be incontestable only after such increase has been in force during the lifetime of the Insured for two years from the Effective Date of Coverage of such increase. Any increase in death benefit over premium paid or increase in death benefit due to a death benefit option change will be incontestable only after such increase has been in force during the lifetime of the Insured for two years from the date of the increase. Any reinstatement will be incontestable after the reinstated Policy has been in force during the lifetime of the Insured for two years from the effective date of the reinstatement.

Report to Owner. We will send you a report at least once each Policy Year. The report will show current policy values, premiums paid and deductions made since the last report. It will also show the balance of any outstanding policy loans and accrued interest on such loans. There is no charge for this report.

 

Performance Information

We may sometimes publish performance information related to the Fund, the Variable Account or the Policy in advertising, sales literature and other promotional materials. This information is based on past investment results and is not an indication of future performance.

Portfolio Performance

We may publish a mutual fund portfolio's total return or average annual total return. Total return is the change in value of an investment over a given period, assuming reinvestment of any dividends and capital gains. Average annual total return is a hypothetical rate of return that, if achieved annually, would have produced the same total return over a stated period if performance had been constant over the entire period. Average annual total returns smooth variations in performance, and are not the same as actual year-by-year results.

We may also publish a mutual fund portfolio's yield. Yield refers to the income generated by an investment in a portfolio over a given period of time, expressed as an annual percentage rate. When a yield assumes that income earned is reinvested, it is called an effective yield. Seven-day yield illustrates the income earned by an investment in a money market fund over a recent seven-day period.

Total returns and yields quoted for a mutual fund portfolio include the investment management fees and other expenses of the portfolio, but do not include charges and deductions attributable to the Policy. These expenses would reduce the performance quoted.

Adjusted Non-Standardized Portfolio Performance

We may publish a mutual fund portfolio's total return and yields adjusted for charges against the assets of the Variable Account.

We may publish total return and yield quotations based on the period of time that a mutual fund portfolio has been in existence.

Federal Income Tax Considerations

The following is a summary of our understanding of current federal income tax laws and is not intended as tax advice. You should be aware that Congress has the power to enact legislation affecting the tax treatment of life insurance contracts which could be applied retroactively. New judicial or administrative interpretation of federal income tax law may also affect the tax treatment of life insurance contracts. Any person contemplating the purchase of a Policy or any transaction involving a Policy should consult a qualified tax adviser. We do not make any representation or provide any guarantee regarding the federal, state or local tax treatment of any Policy or any transaction involving a Policy.

Our Tax Status

We are taxed as a life insurance company under Subchapter L of the Code. Although we account for the operations of the Variable Account separately from our other operations for purposes of federal income taxation, the Variable Account currently is not separately taxable as a regulated investment company or other taxable entity.

Taxes we pay, or reserve for, that are attributable to the earnings of the Variable Account could affect the Net Investment Factor, which in turn affects your Account Value. Under existing federal income tax law, however, the income (consisting primarily of interest, dividends and net capital gains) of the Variable Account, to the extent applied to increase reserves under the Policy, is not taxable to us. Similarly, no state or local income taxes are currently attributable to the earnings of the Variable Account. Therefore, we do not take any federal, state or local taxes into account when determining the Net Investment Factor. We may take taxes into account when determining the Net Investment Factor in future years if, due to a change in law, our tax status or otherwise, such taxes are attributable to the earnings of the Variable Account.

 

 

Taxation of Policy Proceeds

Section 7702 of the Code provides certain tests for whether a policy will be treated as a "life insurance contract" for tax purposes. Provided that the policyowner of the Policy has an insurable interest in the Insured, we believe that the Policy meets these tests, and thus should receive the same federal income tax treatment as a fixed life insurance contract. As such, the Death Benefit under the Policy will generally be eligible for exclusion from the gross income of the beneficiary under Section 101 of the Code, and the policyowner will not be deemed to be in constructive receipt of the increases in Cash Surrender Values, including additions attributable to interest, dividends, appreciation or gains realized upon transfers among the Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account, until actual receipt thereof.

However, you will be taxed on all of the accumulated income under the Policy on its maturity date and there can be no assurance that an election to extend the maturity date of the Policy will avoid that result. In addition, a corporate owner may be subject to alternative minimum tax on the annual increases in Cash Surrender Values and on the portion of the Death Benefit under the Policy that exceeds its Cash Surrender Value.

To qualify as a life insurance contract under Section 7702, the Policy must satisfy certain actuarial requirements. Section 7702 requires that actuarial calculations be based on mortality charges that meet the "reasonable mortality charge" requirements set forth in the Code, and other charges reasonably expected to be actually paid that are specified in the Policy. The law relating to reasonableness standards for mortality and other charges is based on statutory language and certain IRS pronouncements that do not address all relevant issues. Accordingly, although we believe that the mortality and other charges that are used in the calculations (including those used with respect to Policies issued to so-called "sub-standard risks") meet the applicable requirements, we cannot be certain. It is possible that future regulations will contain standards that would require us to modify the mortality and other charges used in the calculations, and we reserve the right to make any such modifications.

For a variable contract like the Policy to qualify as life insurance for federal income tax purposes, it also must comply with the investment diversification rules found in Section 817 of the Code. We believe that the Variable Account complies with the diversification requirements prescribed by Section 1.817-5 of the Treasury Regulations. The IRS has stated that satisfaction of the diversification requirements described above by itself does not prevent a contract owner from being treated as the owner of separate account assets under an "owner control" test. If a contract owner is treated as the owner of separate account assets for tax purposes, the contract owner would be subject to taxation on the income and gains from the separate account assets. In published revenue rulings through 1982 and then again in 2003, the IRS has stated that a variable contract owner will be considered the owner of separate account assets if the owner possesses incidents of ownership in those assets, such as the ability to exercise control over the investment of the assets. In Rev. Rul. 2003-91, the IRS considered certain variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts and concluded that the owners of the variable contracts would not be considered the owners of the contracts underlying assets for federal income tax purposes.

Rev. Rul. 2003-91 states that the determination of whether the owner of a variable contract possesses sufficient incidents of ownership over the assets underlying the variable contract so as to be deemed the owner of those assets for federal income tax purposes will depend on all the facts and circumstances. We do not believe that the differences between the Policy and the contracts described in Rev. Rul. 2003-91 with respect to the number of investment choices and the ability to transfer among investment choices should prevent the holding in Rev. Rul. 2003-91 from applying. Nevertheless, you should consult with a competent tax adviser on the potential impact of the investor control rules of the IRS as they relate to the investment decisions and activities you may undertake with respect to the Policy.

The guidelines in Rev. Rul. 2003-91 do not address the treatment of a policyholder which is, or which is affiliated with, an investment manager. Any investment manager or affiliate who purchases a Policy assumes the risk that it may be treated as the owner of the investments underlying the Policy under the "owner control" rules because of the investment manager's control over assets held under the Policy. However, because the diversification rules would permit an investment manager (or its affiliate) to hold a direct investment in an investment option under the Policy, we do not believe that the application of the "owner control" rules to an investment manager (or its affiliate) should affect you.

In the future, the IRS and/or the Treasury Department may issue new rulings, interpretations or regulations on this subject. Accordingly, we reserve the right to modify the Policy as necessary to attempt to prevent you from being considered the owner, for tax purposes, of the underlying assets. We also reserve the right to notify you if we determine that it is no longer practicable to maintain the Policy in a manner that was designed to prevent you from being considered the owner of the assets of the Separate Account. You bear the risk that you may be treated as the owner of Separate Account assets and taxed accordingly.

The tax consequences of distributions from, and loans taken from or secured by, a Policy depend on whether the Policy is classified as a Modified Endowment Contract under Section 7702A of the Code. Due to the flexibility of the payment of premiums and other rights you have under the Policy, classification of the Policy as a Modified Endowment Contract will depend upon the individual operation of each Policy. A Policy is a Modified Endowment Contract if the aggregate amount paid under the Policy at any time during the first seven Policy Years exceeds the sum of the net level premiums that would have been paid on or before such time if the Policy provided for paid up future benefits after the payment of seven level annual premiums. If there is a reduction in benefits during the first seven Policy Years, the foregoing computation is made as if the Policy originally had been issued at the reduced benefit level. If there is a "material change" to the Policy, the seven year testing period for Modified Endowment Contract status is restarted. A life insurance contract received in exchange for a Modified Endowment Contract also will be treated as a Modified Endowment Contract.

We have undertaken measures to prevent payment of a premium from inadvertently causing the Policy to become a Modified Endowment Contract. In general, you should consult a qualified tax adviser before undertaking any transaction involving the Policy to determine whether such a transaction would cause the Policy to become a Modified Endowment Contract.

If a Policy is not a Modified Endowment Contract, cash distributions from the Policy are treated first as a nontaxable return of the owner's "Investment in the Policy" and then as a distribution of the income earned under the Policy, which is subject to ordinary income tax. (An exception to this general rule occurs when a cash distribution is made in connection with certain reductions in the death benefit under the Policy in the first fifteen contract years. Such a cash distribution is taxed in whole or in part as ordinary income.) Loans from, or secured by, a Policy that is not a Modified Endowment Contract generally are treated as bona fide indebtedness, and thus are not included in the owner's gross income.

If a Policy is a Modified Endowment Contract, distributions from the Policy are treated as ordinary income subject to ordinary income tax up to the amount equal to the excess of the Account Value (which includes unpaid policy loans) immediately before the distribution over the Investment in the Policy. Loans taken from, or secured by, such a Policy, as well as due but unpaid interest thereon, are taxed in the same manner as distributions from the Policy. A 10 percent additional tax is imposed on the portion of any distribution from, or loan taken from or secured by, a Modified Endowment Contract that is included in income except when the distribution or loan is made on or after the owner attains age 59 1/2, is attributable to the policyowner's becoming disabled, or is part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments for the life (or life expectancy) of the policyowner or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies ) of the policyowner and the policyowner's Beneficiary. These exceptions are not likely to apply where the Policy is not owned by an individual (or held in trust for an individual). For purposes of the computations described in this paragraph, all Modified Endowment Contracts issued by us (or our affiliates) to the same policyowner during any calendar year are treated as one Modified Endowment Contract.

There are substantial limits on the deductibility of policy loan interest. You should consult a qualified tax adviser regarding such deductions.

Upon the complete maturity, surrender or lapse of the Policy, the amount by which the sum of the Policy's Cash Surrender Value and any unpaid Policy Debt exceeds the policyowner's "Investment in the Policy" (as defined below) is treated as ordinary income subject to tax. Any loss incurred upon surrender generally is not deductible. Any corporation that is subject to the alternative minimum tax will also have to make a separate computation of the Investment in the Policy and the gain resulting from the maturity of the Policy, or a surrender or lapse of the Policy for purposes of that tax.

The term "Investment in the Policy" means-

-

-

 

-

the aggregate amount of any premiums or other consideration paid for a Policy, minus

the aggregate amount received under the Policy which is excluded from the owner's gross income (other than loan amounts), plus

the amount of any loan from, or secured by, the Policy that is a Modified Endowment Contract (as defined below) to the extent that such amount is included in the policyowner's gross income.

The "Investment in the Policy" is increased by any unpaid Policy Debt on a Policy that is a Modified Endowment Contract in order to prevent double taxation of income. Since the Policy Debt was treated as a taxable distribution at the time the Policy Debt was incurred, the failure to increase the "Investment in the Policy" by the Policy Debt would cause such amount to be taxed again upon a Policy surrender or lapse.

The amount realized that is taken into account in computing the gain on the complete surrender or lapse of a Policy will include any unpaid Policy Debt on a Policy that is a Modified Endowment Contract even though that amount has already been treated as a taxable distribution.

If a Policy is not a Modified Endowment Contract, then the Investment in the Policy is not affected by the receipt of a loan from, or secured by a Policy.

Whether or not the Policy is a Modified Endowment Contract, however, no payment of the principal of, or the interest due under, any loan from or secured by a Policy will affect the amount of the Investment in the Policy.

A policyowner generally will not recognize gain upon the exchange of the Policy for another life insurance policy issued by us or another insurance company, except to the extent that the policyowner receives cash in the exchange or is relieved of policy indebtedness as a result of the exchange. In no event will the gain recognized exceed the amount by which the Policy's Account Value (which includes unpaid policy loans) exceeds the policyowner's Investment in the Policy.

A transfer of the Policy, a change in the policyowner, a change in the beneficiary, certain other changes to the Policy and particular uses of the Policy (including use in a so called "split-dollar" arrangement) may have tax consequences depending upon the particular circumstances and should not be undertaken prior to consulting with a qualified tax adviser. For instance, if you transfer the Policy or designate a new policyowner in return for valuable consideration (or, in some cases, if the transferor is relieved of a liability as a result of the transfer), then the Death Benefit payable upon the death of the Insured may in certain circumstances be includible in your taxable income to the extent that the Death Benefit exceeds the prior consideration paid for the transfer and any premiums and other amounts paid later by the transferee. Further, in such a case, if the consideration received exceeds your Investment in the Policy, the difference will be taxed to you as ordinary income.

Federal, as well as state and local, estate, inheritance and other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of Policy Proceeds will depend on your individual circumstances and those of the beneficiary.

Withholding

We will withhold and remit to the U.S. Government a part of the taxable portion of each distribution unless, prior to the distribution, the Owner provides us his or her taxpayer identification number and instructs us (in the manner prescribed) not to withhold. The Owner may credit against his or her federal income tax liability for the year of distribution any amounts that we withhold.

Tax Return Disclosure

The Company believes that the purchase of a Policy is not currently subject to the tax return disclosure requirements of IRC Section 6011 and Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4. However, it is your responsibility, in consultation with your tax and legal counsel and advisers, to make your own determination as to the applicability of the disclosure requirements of IRC Section 6011 and Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4 to your federal tax return.

The Company believes that the customer list requirements of IRC Section 6112 and Treasury Regulation Section 1.6112-1 are not currently applicable to such offerings and sales.

Under IRC Section 6111 and Temporary Treasury Regulation Section 301.6111, the Company is required to register with the IRS any offerings or sales of Policies that are considered tax shelters. The Company believes that registration would not be required under current regulations with respect to sales of the offering or sale of a Policy.

 

Distribution of Policy

The Policy is sold by licensed insurance agents ("Selling Agents") in those states where the Policy may be lawfully sold. Such Selling Agents will be registered representatives of affiliated and unaffiliated broker-dealer firms ("Selling Broker-Dealers") registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 who are members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and who have entered into selling agreements with the Company and our general distributor, Clarendon Insurance Agency, Inc. ("Clarendon"), One Sun Life Executive Park, Wellesley Hills, Massachusetts 02481. Clarendon is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is registered with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.

The Company (or its affiliates, for the purposes of this section only, collectively, "the Company"), pays the Selling Broker-Dealers compensation for the promotion and sale of the Policy. The Selling Agents who solicit sales of the Policy typically receive a portion of the compensation paid by the Company to the Selling Broker-Dealers in the form of commissions or other compensation, depending on the agreement between the Selling Broker-Dealer and their Selling Agent. This compensation is not paid directly by the Policy Owner or the Separate Account. The Company intends to recoup this compensation through fees and charges imposed under the Policy, and from profits on payments received by the Company for providing administrative, marketing, and other support and services to the Funds.

The amount and timing of commissions the Company may pay to Selling Broker-Dealers may vary depending on the selling agreement but is not expected to be more, in the first year, than 99% of target premium, which will vary based on the Insured's age, sex and rating class, plus 8% of any excess premium payments. In Policy Years two through five, commissions will not exceed 8% of premium paid. In Policy Years six through ten, commissions will not exceed 4% of premium paid. In Policy Years eleven and thereafter, commissions will not exceed 1% of premium paid.

The Company may pay or allow other promotional incentives or payments in the form of cash or other compensation to the extent permitted by NASD rules and other applicable laws and regulations.

<R>

The Company also pays compensation to wholesaling broker-dealers or other firms or intermediaries, including, in some cases, payments to affiliates of the Company such as Sun Life Financial Distributors, Inc., in return for wholesaling services such as providing marketing and sales support, product training and administrative services to the Selling Agents of the Selling Broker-Dealers. These allowances may be based on a percentage of premium, a percentage of Account Value and/or may be a fixed dollar amount.</R>

In addition to the compensation described above, the Company may make additional cash payments or reimbursements to Selling Broker-Dealers in recognition of their marketing and distribution, transaction processing and/or administrative services support. These payments are not offered to all Selling Broker-Dealers, and the terms of any particular agreement governing the payments may vary among Selling Broker-Dealers depending on, among other things, the level of and type of marketing and distribution support provided. Marketing and distribution support services may include, among other services, placement of the Company's products on the Selling Broker-Dealer's preferred or recommended list, access to the Selling Broker-Dealer's registered representatives for purposes of promoting sales of the Company's products, assistance in training and education for the Selling Agents, and opportunities for the Company to participate in sales conferences and educational seminars.

You should ask your Selling Agent for further information about what commissions or other compensation he or she, or the Selling Broker-Dealer for which he or she works, may receive in connection with our purchase of the Policy.

 

Voting Rights

We are the legal owner of all shares of the Funds held in the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account, and as such have the right to vote upon matters that are required by the Investment Company Act of 1940 to be approved or ratified by the shareholders of the Funds and to vote upon any other matters that may be voted upon at a shareholders' meeting.

We will, however, vote shares held in the Sub-Accounts in accordance with instructions received from policyowners who have an interest in the respective Sub-Accounts.

We will vote shares held in each Sub-Account for which no timely instructions from policyowners are received, together with shares not attributable to a Policy, in the same proportion as those shares in that Sub-Account for which instructions are received. Should the applicable federal securities laws change so as to permit us to vote shares held in the Variable Account in our own right, we may elect to do so.

The number of shares in each Sub-Account for which a policyowner may give instructions is determined by dividing the portion of the Account Value derived from participation in that Sub-Account, if any, by the value of one share of the corresponding Fund. We will determine the number as of a date we choose, but not more than 90 days before the shareholders' meeting. Fractional votes are counted. Voting instructions will be solicited in writing at least 14 days prior to the shareholders' meeting.

We may, if required by state insurance regulators, disregard voting instructions if those instructions would require shares to be voted so as to cause a change in the sub-classification or investment policies of one or more of the Funds, or to approve or disapprove an investment management contract. In addition, we may disregard voting instructions that would require changes in the investment policies or investment adviser, provided that we reasonably disapprove of those changes in accordance with applicable federal regulations. If we disregard voting instructions, we will advise you of that action and our reasons for it in our next communication to policyowners.

THE COMPANY AND THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT

Sun Life Financial Inc. ("Sun Life Financial"), a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with common shares listed on the Toronto, New York and Philippine stock exchanges, is the ultimate corporate parent of Sun Life (N.Y.). Sun Life Financial ultimately controls Sun Life (N.Y.) through the following intervening companies: Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.), Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Holdings, Inc., Sun Life Financial (U.S.) Investments LLC, Sun Life Financial (U.S.) Holdings, Inc., Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada - U.S. Operations Holdings, Inc., and Sun Life Financial Corp.

We established Variable Account D on April 24, 2003, pursuant to a resolution of our Board of Directors. The Variable Account is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act") as a unit investment trust.

 

CUSTODIAN

We are the Custodian of the assets of the Variable Account. We will purchase Fund shares at net asset value in connection with amounts allocated to the Sub-Accounts in accordance with your instructions, and we will redeem Fund shares at net asset value for the purpose of meeting the contractual obligations of the Variable Account, paying charges relative to the Variable Account or making adjustments for reserves held in the Variable Account.

 

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

<R>

The financial statements of Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York that are included in this Statement of Additional Information have been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report appearing herein, dated March 23, 2006, accompanying such financial statements (which expresses an unqualified opinion and includes an explanatory paragraph relating to the Company's adoption of provisions of American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' Statement of Position 03-01, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises of Certain Nontraditional Long-Duration Contracts and for Separate Accounts, effective January 1, 2004, described in Note 1), and have been so included in reliance upon the report of such firm given upon their authority as experts in accounting and auditing. Their office is located at 200 Berkeley St, Boston, Massachusetts.

The financial statements of Sun Life (N.Y.) Variable Account D that are included in this Statement of Additional Information have been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their reports appearing herein (which reports dated April 7, 2006 accompanying the financial statements of Sun Life (N.Y.) Variable Account D express an unqualified opinion) and have been included on their authority as experts in accounting and auditing.</R>

 

DISTRIBUTION AND UNDERWRITING OF THE POLICY

<R>

The Policy is offered on a continuous basis. The Policy is sold by licensed insurance agents ("Selling Agents") in those states where the Policy may be lawfully sold. Such Selling Agents will be registered representatives of affiliated and unaffiliated broker-dealer firms ("Selling Broker-Dealers") registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 who are members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and who have entered into selling agreements with the Company and our general distributor, Clarendon Insurance Agency, Inc. ("Clarendon"), One Sun Life Executive Park, Wellesley Hills, Massachusetts 02481. Clarendon is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is registered with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. </R>

The Company (or its affiliates, for the purposes of this section only, collectively, "the Company"), pays the Selling Broker-Dealers compensation for the promotion and sale of the Policy. The Selling Agents who solicit sales of the Policy typically receive a portion of the compensation paid by the Company to the Selling Broker-Dealers in the form of commissions or other compensation, depending on the agreement between the Selling Broker-Dealer and their Selling Agent. This compensation is not paid directly by the Policy Owner or the Separate Account. The Company intends to recoup this compensation through fees and charges imposed under the Policy, and from profits on payments received by the Company for providing administrative, marketing, and other support and services to the Funds.

 

The amount and timing of commissions the Company may pay to Selling Broker-Dealers may vary depending on the selling agreement but is not expected to be more, in the first year, than 99% of target premium, which will vary based on the Insured's age, sex and rating class, plus 8% of any excess premium payments. In Policy Years two through five, commissions will not exceed 8% of premium paid. In Policy Years six through ten, commissions will not exceed 4% of premium paid. In Policy Years eleven and thereafter, commissions will not exceed 1% of premium paid.

The Company may pay or allow other promotional incentives or payments in the form of cash or other compensation to the extent permitted by NASD rules and other applicable laws and regulations.

<R>

The Company also pays compensation to wholesaling broker-dealers or other firms or intermediaries, including, in some cases, payments to affiliates of the Company such as Sun Life Financial Distributors, Inc., in return for wholesaling services such as providing marketing and sales support, product training and administrative services to the Selling Agents of the Selling Broker-Dealers. These allowances may be based on a percentage of premium, a percentage of Account Value and/or may be a fixed dollar amount.</R>

In addition to the compensation described above, the Company may make additional cash payments or reimbursements to Selling Broker-Dealers in recognition of their marketing and distribution, transaction processing and/or administrative services support. These payments are not offered to all Selling Broker-Dealers, and the terms of any particular agreement governing the payments may vary among Selling Broker-Dealers depending on, among other things, the level of and type of marketing and distribution support provided. Marketing and distribution support services may include, among other services, placement of the Company's products on the Selling Broker-Dealer's preferred or recommended list, access to the Selling Broker-Dealer's registered representatives for purposes of promoting sales of the Company's products, assistance in training and education for the Selling Agents, and opportunities for the Company to participate in sales conferences and educational seminars.

You should ask your Selling Agent for further information about what commissions or other compensation he or she, or the Selling Broker-Dealer for which he or she works, may receive in connection with our purchase of the Policy.

 

THE POLICY

To apply for a Policy, you must submit an application to our Service Office. We may then follow certain underwriting procedures designed to determine the insurability of the proposed Insured. We offer the Policy on a regular (medical) underwriting basis and simplified underwriting basis. We may require medical examinations and further information before the proposed application is approved. Simplified underwriting is available to certain groups of Insureds, with all Insureds meeting certain other underwriting requirements. We must pre-approve any simplified underwriting arrangement. The cost of insurance rates are higher for healthy individuals when simplified underwriting is used instead of regular underwriting. Proposed Insureds must be acceptable risks based on our underwriting limits and standards. A Policy cannot be issued until the underwriting process has been completed to our satisfaction. We reserve the right to reject an application that does not meet our underwriting requirements or to apply extra charges for the underwriting classification for an Insured which will result in increased Monthly Cost of Insurance charges.

Expense Charges Applied to Premium. We deduct charges from each premium payment for our federal, state and local tax obligations. The current charge is 5.25%. The guaranteed maximum charge is 7.25%.

Increase in Face Amount. After the first policy anniversary, you may request an increase in the Specified Face Amount (SFA) and Supplemental Insurance Amount (SIA). You must provide satisfactory evidence of each Insured's insurability. Once requested, an increase will become effective at the next policy anniversary following our approval of your request. The Policy does not allow for an increase if the Insured's Attained Age is greater than 80 on the effective date of the increase.

If there are increases in the SFA and SIA other than increases caused by changes in the death benefit option, the cost of insurance charge described above is determined separately for the initial SFA and SIA and each increase in the SFA and SIA. In calculating the net amount at risk, your Account Value will first be allocated to the initial death benefit and then to each increase in the SFA and SIA in the order in which the increases were made.

 

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The financial statements of the Variable Account and Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York are included herein. The financial statements of Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York are provided as relevant to its ability to meet its financial obligations under the Policies and should not be considered as bearing on the investment performance of the assets held in the Variable Account.

Sun Life (N.Y.) Variable Acount D

Notes to Financial Statements

(1) Organization

Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York Variable Account D (the "Variable Account"), a separate account of Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York (the "Sponsor") was established on April 24, 2003 as a funding vehicle for the variable portion of certain individual variable universal life insurance contracts. The Variable Account is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a unit investment trust.

The assets of the Variable Account are divided into Sub-Accounts. Each Sub-Account is invested in shares of a specific mutual fund or series thereof selected by contract owners. The funds currently offered are as follows: AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Inc., The Alger American Fund, Goldman Sachs Variable Insurance Trust, MFS/Sun Life Series Trust, Sun Capital Advisers Trust, AllianceBernstein Variable Products Series Fund, Inc., Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Fund, Franklin Templeton Variable Insurance Products Trust, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust, Scudder Variable Insurance Trust Funds, Scudder Variable Series II, Delaware Variable Insurance Products Trust, Dreyfus Investment Portfolios, Lord Abbett Series Fund, Inc., Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds, Van Kampen Life Insurance Trust and T. Rowe Price Equity Series, Inc. (collectively the "Funds" or "Sub-Accounts").

The Variable Account exists in accordance with the regulations of the New York State Insurance Department. The assets and liabilities of the Variable Account are clearly identified and distinguished from the Sponsor's other assets and liabilities. Assets applicable to the Variable Account are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business the Sponsor may conduct.

(2) Significant Accounting Policies

General

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Sponsor's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment Valuations

Investments in the Funds are recorded at their net asset value. The Funds value their investment securities at fair value. Transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on sales of shares of the Funds are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income and capital gain distributions received by the Sub-Accounts are reinvested in additional Fund shares and are recognized on the ex-distribution date.

Exchanges between Sub-Accounts requested by contract owners are recorded in the new Sub-Account upon receipt of the redemption proceeds.

Federal Income Tax Status

The operations of the Variable Account are part of the operations of the Sponsor and are not taxed separately. The Sponsor qualifies for the federal income tax treatment granted to life insurance companies under Subchapter L of the Internal Revenue Code. Under existing federal income tax law, investment income and capital gains earned by the Variable Account on contract owner reserves are not subject to tax.

(3) Contract Charges and Related Party Transactions

The Sponsor sells both a Survivorship Variable Universal Life Insurance Product ("Survivorship Product") and Single Life Variable Universal Life Products ("Single Life Products"). The Sponsor deducts a sales charge from purchase payments. For the Single Life Products the current charge is 5.25% of the amount of purchase payments. The maximum charge is guaranteed not to exceed 7.25% of purchase payments. For the Survivorship Product, the charge is based on certain factors, including the specified face amount and the age, sex and rating class of the insured. Currently, the charge is 6% of premiums, and is guaranteed not to exceed 8%.

A mortality and expense risk charge based on the value of the Variable Account is deducted from the Variable Account at the end of each valuation period for the mortality and expense risks assumed by the Sponsor. The maximum deduction is at an effective annual rate of .60%, for policy years one through 10 for the Single Life Products, and policy years one through 15 for the Survivorship Product. Thereafter, the effective annual rate is .10% for the Single Life Product and .20% for the Survivorship Product.

For the Single Life Products, a monthly administration charge of $8 is deducted in all policy years, as well as a monthly charge based on the Specified Face Amount is deducted in the first 10 policy years, or for the first 10 policy years following the effective date of each specified face amount increase. These charges are deducted proportionally from the Sub-Accounts of each contract's Account Value, to cover administrative expenses and issuance costs. For the Survivorship Product, the monthly expense charge is deducted for the first 10 policy years, and for the first 10 policy years following an increase in the specified face amount. This charge is based on the specified face amount or increase thereof, times a rate determined by the age, sex and rating class of each insured. For the Survivorship Product, the charge is deducted proportionally from the Sub-Accounts of each contract's account value.

A surrender charge may be deducted to cover certain expenses relating to the sale of the contract. The surrender charge will be an amount based on certain factors, including the specified face amount, the insured's age, sex and rating class. For the Survivorship Product, the surrender charge period will generally end after 14 policy years from the date of policy issue or the effective date of each increase in the specified face amount. For the Single Life Products, the Futurity Protector II and Futurity Accumulator II products, the surrender charge applies to the first 12 and nine years respectively, from date of policy issue or effective date of each increase in specified face amount. For the year ended December 31, 2005, no surrender charges were deducted and retained by the Sponsor, as there were no surrenders for the year then ended.

The Sponsor deducts a monthly cost of insurance from the account value to cover anticipated costs of providing insurance coverage. The charge is based on the length of time a policy has been in force and other factors, including issue age, sex and rating class of each insured, and will not exceed the guaranteed maximum monthly cost of insurance rates based on the 1980 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary smoker and non-smoker mortality tables.

Massachusetts Financial Services Company is the investment adviser to the MFS/Sun Life Series Trust. Sun Capital Advisers Inc. is the investment adviser to Sun Capital Advisers Trust. Both are affiliates of the Sponsor and charge management fees at an effective annual rate ranging from .50% to .75% and .50% to .95% respectively.

* The effective date of the Variable Account D investment options was October 25, 2003 however sales did not commence until April 7, 2004.

** These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the Sub-Account from the underlying mutual fund, net of

management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by the average net assets. These ratios exclude those expenses that result in the direct reduction

in the unit values. The recognition of investment income by the Sub-Account is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying fund in

which the subaccounts invest. Balances have been annualized for sub-accounts in existence for less than one year.

*** These amounts represent the total return for the period indicated, including changes in the value of the underlying fund, and reflect deductions for all

items included in the expense ratio. The total return does not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units; inclusion of these expenses

in the calculation would result in a reduction in the total return presented. Investment options with a date notation indicate the effective date of that invest-

ment option in the variable account. The total return is calculated for the period indicated or for the period commencing with the first trade date within the fund

to the end of the reporting period.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Contract Owners participating in Sun Life (N.Y.) Variable Account D and the Board of Directors of Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York:

We have audited the accompanying statements of condition of AIM V.I. International Growth Sub-Account, Alger American Mid Cap Growth Sub-Account, Goldman Sachs CORE US Equity Sub-Account, Goldman Sachs Mid Cap Value Sub-Account, MFS/Sun Life Series Trust Massachusetts Investors Trust Sub-Account, MFS/Sun Life Series Trust Government Securities Sub-Account, MFS/Sun Life Series Trust High Yield Sub-Account, MFS/Sun Life Series Trust Utilities Sub-Account, MFS/Sun Life Series Trust Value Sub-Account, Sun Capital Investment Grade Bond Sub-Account, Sun Capital Real Estate Sub-Account, Sun Capital Blue Chip Mid-Cap Sub-Account, Sun Capital Davis Venture Value Sub-Account, Sun Capital Value Small Cap Sub-Account, AllianceBernstein VP Growth and Income Sub-Account, Fidelity VIP Index 500 Sub-Account, Fidelity VIP Money Market Sub-Account, Fidelity VIP ContrafundTM Sub-Account, Fidelity VIP Overseas Sub-Account, Fidelity VIP Growth Sub-Account, Franklin Templeton Foreign Securities Sub-Account, PIMCO High Yield Portfolio Sub-Account, PIMCO Emerging Markets Bond Sub-Account, PIMCO Real Return Sub-Account, PIMCO Total Return Sub-Account, PIMCO Low Duration Sub-Account, Scudder Variable Insurance Trust Small Cap Index Fund Sub-Account, Scudder SVS Dreman Small Cap Value Portfolio Sub-Account, Dreyfus MidCap Stock Portfolio Sub-Account, Lord Abbett Mid-Cap Value Sub-Account, Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Sub-Account, Van Kampen LIT Growth & Income Sub-Account and T. Rowe Price Blue Chip Growth Sub-Account of Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York Variable Account D (collectively the "Sub-Accounts"), as of December 31, 2005, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Sub-Accounts management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Sub-Accounts are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Sub-Accounts' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2005, by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Sub-Accounts as of December 31, 2005, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Years Ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General

On December 31, 2002, Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York ("Sun NY Predecessor"), which was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.) ("Sun Life U.S."), and Keyport Benefit Life Insurance Company ("KBL"), which was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Keyport Life Insurance Company ("Keyport"), an affiliate, merged, with Sun NY Predecessor as the surviving company ("the Company"), and the Company issued 4,001 additional shares of common stock to Keyport in exchange for the assets and liabilities of KBL. As a result of the additional common stock issuance, the Company became a subsidiary of both Keyport and Sun Life U.S., with Keyport owning 67% of the common stock of the Company. The merger had no effect on the existing rights and benefits of policyholders or contract holders of either company.

The merger was accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141, "Business Combinations." Under SFAS No. 141, transfers of net assets and exchanges of shares between entities under common control are recorded at their carrying amounts at the date of transfer. The financial statements of prior periods have been restated to give effect to the merger as of November 1, 2001, the date on which the predecessor companies came under common control.

On December 31, 2003, Keyport was merged with and into Sun Life U.S. with Sun Life U.S as the surviving company. Consequently, the Company is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Life U.S.

The Company is engaged in the sale of fixed and variable annuity contracts, individual life and group life insurance, stop loss and group disability insurance. These contracts are sold by insurance agents, some of whom are registered representatives of national and regional stock brokerage firms, and brokers. The Company is licensed and authorized to write all the business that was previously written by KBL and Sun NY Predecessor.

The Company is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada - U.S. Operations Holdings, Inc. ("SLC - U.S. Ops Holdings") and is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Life Financial Inc. ("SLF"), a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. SLF and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as "Sun Life Financial."

As of December 31, 2004, SLC - U.S. Ops Holdings, was a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada ("SLOC"), 150 King Street West, Toronto, Ontario, Canada. SLOC is a life insurance company incorporated in 1865. As of December 31, 2005, SLOC transacted business directly or through its subsidiaries and joint ventures in all of the Canadian provinces and territories, all of the United States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Great Britain, Ireland, Hong Kong, Bermuda, Barbados, Philippines, Indonesia, China and India. SLOC is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of SLF.

On January 4, 2005, a reorganization was completed under which most of SLOC's asset management businesses in Canada and the United States were transferred to Sun Life Financial Corp., a newly incorporated wholly-owned subsidiary of SLF. After this reorganization, the operations remaining in SLOC consist primarily of Sun Life Financial's life, health and annuities businesses in Canada, most of its life and health businesses in the United States, and all of its operations in the United Kingdom and Asia. SLOC continues to be a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of SLF. The Company is now an indirect subsidiary of Sun Life Financial Corp., and continues to be an indirect subsidiary of SLF.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates are those used in determining fair value of financial instruments, goodwill, deferred policy acquisition costs ("DAC"), the liabilities for future policyholder benefits and other-than-temporary impairments of investments.

Financial Instruments

In the normal course of business, the Company may enter into transactions involving various types of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, fixed maturity securities, mortgage loans, equity securities, debt, loan commitments and financial guarantees. These instruments involve credit risk and also may be subject to risk of loss due to interest rate fluctuation. The Company evaluates and monitors each financial instrument individually and, when appropriate, obtains collateral or other security to minimize losses.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash, commercial paper, money market investments, and short term bank participations. All such investments have been purchased with maturities of three months or less and are considered cash equivalents for purposes of reporting cash flows.

Investments

The Company accounts for its investments in accordance with SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." At the time of purchase, fixed maturity securities are classified based on intent, as either held-to-maturity or available-for-sale. In order for the securities to be classified as held-to-maturity, the Company must have positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Securities held-to-maturity are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Securities that do not meet this criteria are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are carried at estimated fair value with changes in unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income. Fair values for publicly traded securities are obtained from external market quotations. For privately placed fixed maturities, fair values are estimated by taking into account prices for publicly traded securities of similar credit risk, maturities, repayment and liquidity characteristics. The Company does not engage in trading activities. All of the Company's fixed maturity securities are classified as available-for-sale. Included with available-for-sale fixed maturities are mortgage backed securities in To Be Announced ("TBA") form. The Company records these purchases on trade date and the corresponding payable is recorded as an outstanding liability in the payable for investments purchased until the settlement date of the transaction. All security transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis.

The Company's accounting policy for impairment requires recognition of an other-than-temporary impairment charge on a security if it is determined that the Company will be unable to recover all amounts due under the contractual obligations of the security. Once an impairment charge has been recorded, the Company continues to review the other-than-temporarily impaired security for additional impairment, if necessary.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Years Ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Investments (continued)

Mortgage loans are stated at unpaid principal balances, net of provisions for estimated losses. Mortgage loans acquired at a premium or discount are carried at amortized values, net of provisions for estimated losses. Loans include commercial first mortgage loans and are diversified by property type and geographic area throughout the United States. Mortgage loans are collateralized by the related properties and generally are no more than 75% of each property's value at the time that the original loan is made.

A loan is recognized as impaired when it is probable that the principal or interest is not collectible in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. Measurement of impairment is based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or at the loan's observable market price. A specific valuation allowance is established if the fair value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded amount. Loans are also charged against the allowance when determined to be uncollectible. The allowance is based on a continuing review of the loan portfolio, past loss experience and current economic conditions, which may affect the borrower's ability to pay. While management believes that it uses the best information available to establish the allowance, future adjustments to the allowance may become necessary if economic conditions differ from the assumptions used in making the evaluation.

Policy loans are carried at the amount of the outstanding principal balance. The loans are collateralized by the respective insurance policy and do not exceed the excess of the net cash surrender value of the policy.

Realized gains and losses on the sales of investments are recognized in operations at the date of sale and are determined using the average cost method. When an impairment of a specific investment is determined to be other-than-temporary, inclusive of changes in the provision for estimated losses on mortgage loans, a realized investment loss is recorded.

Income on investments is recorded on the accrual basis. Investments are placed in a non-accrual status when management believes that the borrower's financial condition, after giving consideration to economic and business conditions and collection efforts, is such that collection of principal and interest is doubtful. When an investment is placed in non-accrual status, all interest previously accrued is reversed against current period interest income. Interest accruals are resumed on such investments only when the investments have performed on a sustained basis for a reasonable period of time, and when, in the judgment of management, the investments are estimated to be fully collectible as to both principal and interest.

Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs

Acquisition costs consist of commissions, underwriting and other costs that vary with and are primarily related to the production of new business. Acquisition costs related to investment-type contracts, primarily deferred annuity and guaranteed investment contracts, are deferred and amortized with interest in proportion to the present value of estimated gross profits to be realized over the estimated lives of the contracts. Estimated gross profits are composed of net investment income, net realized investment gains and losses, life and variable annuity fees, surrender charges, interest credited, policyholder benefits and direct variable administrative expenses. This amortization is reviewed periodically and adjusted retrospectively when the Company revises the actual profits and its estimate of future gross profits to be realized from investment-type contracts, including realized and unrealized gains and losses from investments.

Although realization of DAC is not assured, the Company believes it is more likely than not that all of these costs will be realized. The amount of DAC considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if the estimates of gross profits discussed above are reduced.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Years Ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs (continued)

DAC is also adjusted for amounts relating to the recognition of unrealized investment gains and losses. This adjustment, net of tax, is included with the change in net unrealized investment gains or losses that is credited or charged directly to accumulated other comprehensive income. DAC was increased (decreased) by $0.8 million and $(12.5) million at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, relating to this adjustment.

Other Assets

Property, equipment, and leasehold improvements, which are included in other assets, are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line or accelerated method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which generally range from 3 to 10 years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is calculated using the straight-line method over the lesser of the term of the lease or the estimated useful life of the improvements.

Policy liabilities and accruals

Contractholder deposit funds consist of policy values that accrue to the holders of investment-related products, such as deferred annuities and guaranteed investment contracts. The liabilities consist of net deposits and interest credited less administrative charges. The liability is before the deduction of any applicable surrender charges.

Future contract and policy benefits are liabilities for traditional life, disability, stop loss and annuity products. Such liabilities are established in amounts adequate to meet the estimated future obligations of policies in force. The liabilities associated with traditional life insurance, annuity, stop loss and disability insurance products are computed using the net level premium method based on assumptions about future investment yields, mortality, morbidity and persistency. The assumptions used are based upon the Company's experience and industry standards.

Other policy liabilities include liabilities for policy and contract claims. These amounts consist of the estimated amount payable for claims reported but not yet settled and an estimate of claims incurred but not reported. The amount reported is based upon historical experience, adjusted for trends and current circumstances. Management believes that the recorded liability is sufficient to provide for the associated claims adjustment expenses. Revisions of these estimates are included in operations in the year such refinements are made.

Guaranteed minimum accumulation benefits or withdrawal benefits are considered to be derivatives under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," and are recorded at fair value through earnings. The fair value of the embedded derivatives is calculated stochastically using risk neutral scenarios over a 50 year projection. Policyholder assumptions are based on experience studies.

Revenue and Expenses

Premiums for traditional individual life and annuity products are considered earned revenue when due. Premiums related to group disability insurance and stop loss are recognized as earned revenue pro-rata over the contract period. The unexpired portion of these premiums is recorded as unearned premiums. Revenue from investment-related products includes charges for cost of insurance (mortality), initiation and administration of the policy, and surrender charges. Revenue is recognized when the charges are assessed, except that any portion of an assessment that relates to services to be provided in future years is deferred and recognized over the period during which the services are provided.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Years Ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Revenue and Expenses (continued)

Benefits and expenses related to traditional life, annuity and disability contracts, including group policies, are recognized when incurred in a manner designed to match them with related premium revenue and to spread income recognition over the expected life of the policy. For universal life-type and investment-type contracts, expenses include interest credited to policyholders' accounts and death benefits in excess of account values, which are recognized as incurred.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses primarily represent allocated compensation and general and administrative expenses. Management believes intercompany expenses are calculated on a reasonable basis, however, these amounts may not necessarily be indicative of the costs that would be incurred if the Company operated on a stand-alone basis.

Income Taxes

For 2005, the Company will file a stand-alone federal income tax return, as it did for 2004 and 2003. For periods prior to 2003, the Company participated in a consolidated tax return with certain affiliates; however, federal income taxes were calculated as if the Company was filing a separate federal income tax return. Taxes are computed under SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Deferred income taxes are generally recognized when assets and liabilities have different values for financial statement and tax reporting purposes, and for other temporary taxable and deductible differences as defined by SFAS No. 109. These differences result primarily from policy reserves, policy acquisition expenses and unrealized gains or losses on investments.

Separate Accounts

The Company has established separate accounts applicable to various classes of contracts providing for variable benefits and they are generally not subject to liabilities that arise from any other business of the Company. Separate account assets are subject to general account claims only to the extent the value of such assets exceeds the separate account liabilities. Contracts for which funds are invested in separate accounts include variable life insurance and individual qualified and non-qualified variable annuity contracts. Assets and liabilities of the separate accounts, representing net deposits and accumulated net investment earnings, less fees, held primarily for the benefit of contractholders, are shown as separate captions in the financial statements. Assets held in the separate accounts are carried at market value and the investment risk of such securities is retained by the policyholder. The activity of the separate accounts is not reflected in the financial statements except for: (1) the fees the Company receives, which are assessed on a daily or monthly basis and recognized as revenue when assessed and earned; and (2) the activity related to the guaranteed minimum death benefit ('GMDB'), guaranteed minimum accumulation benefit ('GMAB') and guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit ('GMWB') as reflected in the Company's financial statements.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

New Accounting Pronouncements

In November of 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued FASB Staff Position 115-1 and 124-1 ("FSP FAS 115-1 and FAS 124-1") "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments and its Application to Certain Investments." This FSP is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2005. FSP FAS 115-1 and FAS 124-1 addresses the determination as to when an investment is considered impaired, whether that impairment is other than temporary, and the measurement of the impairment loss. The statement also includes accounting guidance for periods subsequent to the recognition of an other-than-temporary impairment and requires certain disclosures about unrealized losses that have not been recognized as other-than-temporary impairments. Adoption of this FSP will not impact the methodology used by the Company to determine and measure impaired investments. See disclosure in Note 4.

In September of 2005, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the "AICPA") issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 05-1, "Accounting by Insurance Enterprises for Deferred Acquisition Costs in Connection with Modifications or Exchanges of Insurance Contracts." This SOP provides guidance on accounting by insurance companies for DAC on internal replacements other than those specifically described in FASB Statement No. 97, "Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for Certain Long-Duration Contracts and for Realized Gains and Losses from the Sale of Investments." This SOP is effective for internal replacements occurring in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is in the process of evaluating the provisions of the proposed SOP and its impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations.

In May of 2005, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 154 "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections - a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3." This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. This statement changes the requirements for the accounting and reporting of a change in accounting principle and applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle. The statement eliminates the requirement in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20 to include the cumulative effect of a change in accounting in the income statement in the period of change and requires retrospective applications to prior periods' financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the specific period effects or the cumulative effect of the change. This statement applies to changes required by new accounting pronouncements only when the pronouncement does not include specific transition guidance. The Company will adopt this statement as required in 2006 and report any changes in accounting principle to be implemented in accordance with the requirements of this pronouncement.

Other Accounting Pronouncements

On January 1, 2004, the Company adopted the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' (the "AICPA") Statement of Position 03-1, "Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for Certain Nontraditional Long-Duration Contracts and for Separate Accounts" ("SOP 03-1"). The major provisions of SOP 03-1 that affect the Company require:

l

Establishment of reserves primarily related to death benefit and income benefit guarantees provided under variable annuity contracts;

l

Deferral of sales inducements that meet certain criteria, and amortization using the same method used for DAC; and

l

Reporting and measuring the Company's interest in its separate accounts as investments.

See Footnote 12 for additional information regarding the impact of adoption.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Other Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

Effective December 31, 2003, the Company adopted the disclosure requirements of Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 03-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments." As a result, disclosures are required for unrealized losses on fixed maturity and equity securities accounted for under SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investment in Debt and Equity Securities," that are classified as either available-for-sale or held-to-maturity.

The disclosure requirements include quantitative information regarding the aggregate amount of unrealized losses and the associated fair value of the investments in an unrealized loss position, segregated into time periods for which the investments have been in an unrealized loss position. EITF No. 03-1 also requires certain qualitative disclosures about holdings with unrealized losses in order to provide additional information that the Company considered in concluding that the unrealized losses were not other-than-temporary. For further discussion, see disclosures in Note 4.

2. GOODWILL

Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price paid and the fair value of the net assets acquired in connection with the Company's acquisition of KBL on December 31, 2002. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are tested for impairment on an annual basis. The Company completed the required impairment tests during the second quarter of 2005 and concluded that these assets are not impaired.

3. SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

The Company has agreements with Sun Life U.S. and certain affiliates, under which the Company receives, as requested, certain investment and administrative services on a cost reimbursement basis. Expenses under these agreements amounted to approximately $16.0 million, $11.5 million and $11.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

The Company had $17.9 million and $8.3 million due to related parties at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $0.6 million and $5.3 million due from related parties at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

During 2005, 2004 and 2003, the Company paid $1.0 million, $1.0 million and $0.1 million, respectively, in commission fees to an affiliate, Sun Life Financial Distributors, Inc.

During 2005, 2004 and 2003, the Company paid $2.8 million, $2.5 million and $3.1 million, respectively, in commission fees to Independent Financial Marketing Group, Inc., an affiliate.

The Company paid $1.5 million and $1.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, in investment advisory fees to Sun Capital Advisers LLC, a registered investment adviser and affiliate, on a cost-reimbursement basis.

As more fully described in Note 8, the Company has been involved in several reinsurance transactions with SLOC.

As more fully described in Note 9, the Company participates in a pension plan and other post-retirement benefits plan sponsored by Sun Life U.S.

Management believes intercompany revenues and expenses are calculated on a reasonable basis; however, these amounts may not necessarily be indicative of the costs that would be incurred if the Company operated on a stand-alone basis.

Gross gains of $4.6 million, $17.5 million and $14.0 million, and gross losses of $3.2 million, $7.5 million and $2.6 million were realized on the voluntary sale of fixed maturities for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Fixed maturities with an amortized cost of approximately $0.4 million at December 31, 2005 and 2004 were on deposit with governmental authorities as required by law.

As of December 31, 2005, 94.0% of the Company's fixed maturities were investment grade. Investment grade securities are those that are rated "BBB" or better by nationally recognized investment rating organizations. In 2004 and 2003, $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of the prior years' impairment losses were recovered through disposition and are included in realized gains. In 2005, no prior years' losses were recovered through disposition.

The Company has discontinued the accrual of income on several of its holdings for issuers that are in default. The termination of accrual accounting on these holdings reduced previously accrued income by $0.3 million, $38,000 and $0.2 million, for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The fair market value of these investments was $4.2 million, $0.2 million and $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

The Company has a comprehensive process in place to identify potential problem securities that could have an impairment that is other-than-temporary. At the end of each quarter, all securities with an unrealized loss are reviewed. An analysis is undertaken to determine whether this decline in market value is other-than-temporary. The Company's process focuses on issuer operating performance and overall industry and market conditions. Any deterioration in operating performance is assessed relative to the impact on issuer financial ratios, including leverage and coverage measures specific to an industry and relative to any investment covenants. Additionally, the Company's analysis assesses each issuer's ability to service its debts in a timely fashion, the length of time the security has been in an unrealized loss position, rating agency actions, and any other key developments. The Company has a Credit Committee that includes members from its investment, finance and actuarial functions. The Credit Committee meets and reviews the results of the Company's impairment analysis on a quarterly basis.

Mortgage loans

The Company invests in commercial first mortgage loans throughout the United States. Investments are diversified by property type and geographic area.

Mortgage loans

Mortgage loans are collateralized by the related properties and generally are no more than 75% of each property's value at the time that the original loan is made.

The Company monitors the condition of the mortgage loans in its portfolio. In those cases where mortgages have been restructured, appropriate allowances for losses have been made. In those cases where, in management's judgment, the mortgage loan's value has been impaired, appropriate losses are recorded. The Company had no restructured mortgage loans at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Mortgage loans comprised the following property types and geographic regions (in 000's):

Interest receivable on the above financial instruments is stated at carrying value which approximates fair value.

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents are estimated to be cost plus accrued interest. The fair values of short-term bonds are estimated to be amortized cost. The fair values of publicly traded fixed maturities are based upon market prices or dealer quotes. For privately placed fixed maturities, fair values are estimated by taking into account prices for publicly traded securities of similar credit risk, maturity, repayment and liquidity characteristics. The fair values of mortgage loans are estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Policy loans are stated at unpaid principal balances, which approximate fair value. The estimated fair value of assets held in separate accounts is based on quoted market prices.

The fair values of the Company's contractholder deposits under investment-type contracts (insurance, annuity and pension contracts that do not involve mortality or morbidity risks) are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or surrender values based on interest rates currently being offered for similar contracts with maturities consistent with those remaining for all contracts being valued. Those contracts that are deemed to have short-term guarantees have a carrying amount equal to the estimated market value. The fair value of liabilities related to separate accounts is the amount payable on demand, which excludes surrender charges.

GMABs or GMWBs are considered to be derivatives under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," and are included in contractholder deposit funds. The fair value of the embedded derivatives is calculated stochastically using risk neutral scenarios over a 50 year projection. Policyholder assumptions are based on experience studies.

8. REINSURANCE

The Company had an agreement with SLOC whereby SLOC reinsured the mortality risks of the Company's group life insurance contracts. Under this agreement, certain death benefits were reinsured on a yearly renewable term basis. The agreement provided that SLOC would reinsure the mortality risks in excess of $50,000 per claim for group life contracts ceded by the Company. The treaty was commuted effective December 31, 2004.

The Company had an agreement with SLOC whereby SLOC reinsured morbidity risks of a block of the Company's group long-term disability contracts. The treaty was commuted effective December 31, 2004.

The Company has an agreement with an unrelated company whereby the unrelated company reinsures the mortality risks of the Company's group life contracts. Under this agreement, certain group life mortality benefits are reinsured on a yearly renewable term basis. The agreement provides that the unrelated company will reinsure amounts above $700,000 per claim for group life contracts ceded by the Company.

The Company has an agreement with an unrelated company whereby the unrelated company reinsures the morbidity risks of the Company's group long-term disability contracts. Under this agreement, certain long-term disability benefits are reinsured on a yearly renewable term basis. The agreement provides that the unrelated company will reinsure amounts above $4,000 per claim per month for long-term disability contracts ceded by the Company.

The Company has an agreement with an unrelated company whereby the unrelated company reinsures the morbidity risks of the Company's group stop loss contracts. Under this agreement, certain stop loss benefits are reinsured on a yearly renewable term basis. The agreement provides that the unrelated company will reinsure specific claims for amounts above $1,000,000 per claim for medical stop loss contracts ceded by the Company.

The Company is contingently liable for the portion of the policies reinsured under each of its existing reinsurance agreements in the event the reinsurance companies are unable to pay their portion of any reinsured claim. Management believes that any liability from this contingency is unlikely. However, to limit the possibility of such losses, the Company periodically evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and monitors concentration of credit risk.

9. RETIREMENT PLANS

Pension Plan

The Company participates in a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan ("the Pension Plan") that is sponsored by Sun Life U.S., which is directly liable for the related obligations. Benefits under the plan are based on years of service and employees' average compensation. The Company is allocated a portion of the pension plan expenses. The allocated expenses were $211,000, $25,000 and $41,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Included in the 2005 allocation is a curtailment charge of $205,000 related to changes in the pension plan.

401(k) Savings Plan

The Company has a savings plan that qualifies under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code ("the 401(k) Plan") sponsored by Sun Life U.S. for which substantially all employees of at least age 21 are eligible to participate at date of hire. Employer contributions are matched up to a specified amount of the employee's contributions to the 401(k) Plan. The Company's portion of this employer contribution was $16,000, $19,000 and $23,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Other Post-Retirement Benefit Plans

The Company participates in a plan sponsored by Sun Life U.S. that provides certain health, dental and life insurance benefits ("post-retirement benefits") for retired employees and dependents. Substantially all employees of the participating companies may become eligible for these benefits if they reach normal retirement age, or retire early upon satisfying an alternate age plus service condition. Life insurance benefits are generally set at a fixed amount. The Company is allocated a portion of these post-retirement benefit plans expenses. The allocated expenses were $8,000, $13,000 and $4,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

10. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

For 2005, the Company will file a stand-alone federal income tax return, as it did for 2004 and 2003. For periods prior to 2003, the Company participated in a consolidated tax return with certain affiliates; however, federal income taxes were calculated as if the Company was filing a separate federal income tax return. A summary of the components of federal income tax expense (benefit) in the statements of operations for the years ended December 31, is as follows (in 000's):

The Company received income tax refunds of approximately $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2005; had no net income tax payments for the year 2004; and, received income tax refunds of approximately $2.0 million for 2003. At December 31, 2005, the Company had no operating loss carryforwards remaining.

The Company's federal income tax returns are routinely audited by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"), and provisions are made in the financial statements in anticipation of the results of these audits. The Company is currently under audit by the IRS for the years 2001 through 2002. In the Company's opinion, adequate tax liabilities have been established for all years and any adjustments that might be required for the years under audit will not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. However, the amounts of these tax liabilities could be revised in the future if estimates of the Company's ultimate liability are revised.

The incurred losses and loss adjustment expenses relating to insured events in prior years changed as a result of reassessment of the estimates of the settlement costs on certain claims outstanding due to factors that emerged in the current year.

The Company regularly updates its estimates of liabilities for unpaid claims and claims adjustment expenses as new information becomes available and further events occur which may impact the resolution of unsettled claims for its group disability line of business. Changes in prior estimates are recorded in results of operations in the year such changes are determined to be needed.

12. LIABILITIES FOR CONTRACT GUARANTEES

On January 1, 2004, the Company adopted the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' SOP 03-1. The major provisions of SOP 03-1 that affect the Company require:

l

Establishment of reserves primarily related to death benefit and income benefit guarantees provided under variable annuity contracts.

l

Deferral of sales inducements that meet certain criteria, and amortization using the same method used for DAC.

Upon adoption of SOP 03-1 in 2004, the cumulative effect, reported after tax and net of related effects on DAC, decreased net income and stockholder's equity by $0.9 million. The reduction in net income was comprised of an increase in benefit reserves (primarily for variable annuity contracts) of $0.9 million, pre-tax, and a decrease in DAC of $0.5 million, pre-tax.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Years Ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003

12. LIABILITIES FOR CONTRACT GUARANTEES (continued)

Since there have been no products issued by the Company that contain a guaranteed minimum income benefit ("GMIB"), there is no requirement for a GMIB reserve as of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004.

The liability for death benefit guarantees is established equal to a benefit ratio multiplied by the cumulative contract charges earned, plus accrued interest and less contract benefit payments. The benefit ratio is calculated as the estimated present value of all expected contract benefits divided by the present value of all expected contract charges. The benefit ratio may be in excess of 100%. For guarantees in the event of death, benefits represent the current guaranteed minimum death payments in excess of the current account balance. For guarantees at annuitization, benefits represent the present value of the minimum guaranteed annuity benefits in excess of the current account balance.

Projected benefits and assessments used in determining the liability for guarantees are developed using models and stochastic scenarios that are also used in the development of estimated future gross profits. Underlying assumptions for the liability related to benefits include assumed future annuitization elections based upon factors such as eligibility conditions and the annuitant's attained age.

The liability for guarantees is re-evaluated regularly, and adjustments are made to the liability balance through a charge or credit to policyowner benefits.

GMABs or GMWBs are considered to be derivatives under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," and are recorded at fair value through earnings. The fair value of the embedded derivatives is calculated stochastically using risk neutral scenarios over a 50 year projection. Policyholder assumptions are based on experience studies. The guaranteed minimum accumulation or withdrawal benefit constituted (a liability) an asset in the amount of $(0.1) million and $0.2 million at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Years Ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003

15. REGULATORY FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The Company is required to file quarterly and annual statements with the Insurance Department of the State of New York prepared on a statutory accounting basis prescribed or permitted by the State of New York. Statutory net income and capital stock and surplus differ from net income and stockholder's equity reported in accordance with GAAP for stock life insurance companies primarily because, under statutory basis accounting, policy acquisition costs are expensed when incurred, reserves are based on different assumptions, investments are valued differently, post-retirement benefit costs are based on different assumptions and reflect a different method of adoption, and income tax expense reflects only taxes paid or currently payable.

The Company's statutory surplus and net (loss) income were as follows (in 000's):

16. DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS

The Company's ability to pay dividends is subject to certain statutory restrictions. The State of New York has enacted laws governing the payment of dividends to stockholders by domestic insurers. New York law permits a domestic stock life insurance company to distribute a dividend to its shareholders without prior notice to the New York Superintendent of Insurance where the aggregate amount of such dividend in any calendar year does not exceed the lesser of: (i) ten percent of its surplus to policyholders as of the immediately preceding calendar year; or (ii) its net gain from operations for the immediately preceding calendar year, not including realized capital gains. The Company is not permitted to pay any dividends in 2006 without prior approval from the Superintendent. No dividends were paid by the Company during 2005, 2004 or 2003.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholder of
Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York
Wellesley Hills, Massachusetts

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York (the "Company") as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholder's equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005.  Our audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 15.  These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of its operations and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, effective January 1, 2004, the Company adopted the provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' Statement of Position 03-1. "Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for Certain Nontraditional Long-Duration Contracts and for Separate Accounts."

ITEM 28. PERSONS CONTROLLED BY OR UNDER COMMON CONTROL WITH THE DEPOSITOR OR THE REGISTRANT

No person is directly or indirectly controlled by the Registrant. The Registrant is a separate account of Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Life of Canada (U.S.), which is ultimately controlled by Sun Life Financial.

<R>

The organization chart of Sun Life Financial is filed as Exhibit 13 to Post-Effective Amendment No. 16 to the Registration Statement on Form N-4 of Keyport Variable Account A, File Nos. 333-83516, filed April 11, 2006.</R>

None of the companies listed in such Exhibit 13 is a subsidiary of the Registrant; therefore, the only financial statements being filed are those of Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York.

ITEM 29. INDEMNIFICATION

Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York pursuant to the certificate of incorporation, by-laws, or otherwise, Sun Life (N.Y.) has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by Sun Life (N.Y.) of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, controlling person of Sun Life (N.Y.) in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, Sun Life (N.Y.) will, unless in the opinion of their counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by them is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

ITEM 30. PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITERS

Clarendon Insurance Agency, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.), acts as general distributor for the Registrant, Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Variable Accounts C, D, E, F, G and I, Keyport Variable Account A, KMA Variable Account, Keyport Variable Account I, KBL Variable Account A, KBL Variable Annuity Account, Sun Life (N.Y.) Variable Accounts A, B and C, and Money Market Variable Account, High Yield Variable Account, Capital Appreciation Variable Account, Government Securities Variable Account, World Governments Variable Account, Total Return Variable Account and Managed Sectors Variable Account.
