SUMMARY

This summary provides a brief overview of the Symetra True Variable Annuity. More information is provided in the prospectus, SAI and your Contract.

What is the purpose of the Contract? The Symetra True Variable Annuity Contract is an agreement between you, the Owner, and Symetra Life Insurance Company (“Symetra Life”, “we”, and “us”). The Contract is designed to help you invest on a tax-deferred basis and meet long-term financial goals, such as retirement funding. The Contract provides for guaranteed income and death benefits, subject to applicable terms and conditions. You should not buy the Contract if you are looking for a short-term investment or if you cannot accept the risk of getting back less money than you put in.

What kinds of Contracts are described in the prospectus? The Contracts are available as non-qualified contracts that provide you certain tax deferral features under the Code.

The Contracts are also available as one of the following types of qualified contracts:

• Individual Retirement Annuity (“IRA”);

• Roth IRA;

• Simple IRA; or

• SEP IRA.

Qualified contracts do not provide additional tax deferral benefit.

How do I invest money in the Contract? We accept initial Purchase Payments in the amount of $25,000 or more. Subsequent Purchase Payments may be made at any time in the amount of $1,000 or more, or if made by electronic funds transfer, in the amount of $250 or more. We will not accept without our prior approval aggregate Purchase Payments in excess of $2 million dollars. All Purchase Payments should be sent to our Administrative Office.

What annuity options are available? You can select one of five basic annuity options under the Contract. The options available are:

• Life Annuity;

• Life Annuity with Guaranteed Period;

• Joint and Survivor Life Annuity;

• Joint and Survivor Life Annuity with Guaranteed Period; or

• Period Certain Annuity.

All annuity payments will be made on a fixed basis.

What are my investment choices? Currently, the Contract offers Sub-accounts that invest in the Portfolios listed in Appendix B, however not all Sub-accounts may be available for all Contracts.

Can I make transfers between the Sub-accounts? You can transfer money among the available Sub-accounts 25 times per Contract Year free of a transfer charge. All transfers must meet a $500 minimum transfer amount.

You can use the following strategies at no additional charge:

• Dollar Cost Averaging;

• Sub-account Rebalancing; and

• Customized Transfer Instructions.

Transfers made under these strategies do not count against your free transfers and may not be subject to the $500 minimum transfer amount.

6

Can I make withdrawals? You can access your money through partial withdrawals, repetitive withdrawals, and a full surrender. You may have to pay income taxes and tax penalties on any money you withdraw from the Contract.

What are the charges and expenses? The Contract has insurance features and investment features, and there are costs related to each. The charges and expenses for this Contract are summarized in the following Fee Table and discussed in detail in “Section 7 – Charges and Expenses.”

What are the death benefit options? The Contract provides a death benefit equal to the Contract Value. You may also elect an optional death benefit rider that is available for an additional charge. The Wealth Transfer Benefit rider (“WTB rider”) provides an additional death benefit in the event of positive investment performance to help offset taxes and other expenses your surviving Owner or Beneficiary may incur after your death. Generally, the WTB rider works by adding the WTB Additional Benefit to your Contract Value, subject to the terms and conditions described in “Section 8 – Death Benefit and Optional Death Benefit Rider.”

7

FEE TABLE

The purpose of the Fee Table is to show you the various fees and expenses you will incur directly and indirectly by buying and owning the Contract. The Fee Table reflects the expenses of the Separate Account as well as the Portfolios.

The Owner Transaction Expenses table describes the fees and expenses that you will pay when you transfer money between Sub-accounts. State premium taxes may also be deducted.

OWNER TRANSACTION EXPENSES	AMOUNT DEDUCTED
TRANSFER CHARGE (Assessed for each transfer in excess of 25 transfers in a Contract Year)	$25

The Periodic Charges table below describes the fees and expenses that you will pay periodically during the time that you own the Contract, not including Portfolio fees and expenses.

PERIODIC CHARGES (Not Including Portfolio Operating Fees and Expenses or Optional Benefit Charges)	MAXIMUM AMOUNT DEDUCTED		CURRENT AMOUNT DEDUCTED
SEPARATE ACCOUNT ANNUAL EXPENSES (As a percentage of average daily net assets of each Sub-account/deducted daily)
Mortality and Expense Risk Charge		0.60%		0.60%
Sub-account Fund Facilitation Fee (1)		0.15%		0.00%
TOTAL SEPARATE ACCOUNT ANNUAL EXPENSES		0.75%		0.60%

(1) The Sub-account fund facilitation fee is assessed against the average daily net assets invested in certain Sub-accounts. Currently, we do not assess this fee on any Sub-account.

The Annual Charges For Wealth Transfer Benefit rider table below describes the fees and expenses that you would pay if you added the optional benefit to your Contract. The WTB rider charges shown are per $1,000 of WTB Additional Benefit.

ANNUAL CHARGES FOR WEALTH TRANSFER BENEFIT RIDER (2)	MAXIMUM CHARGE (3)	CURRENT CHARGE (3)
WEALTH TRANSFER BENEFIT RIDER
Joint owners, the oldest age 95, using unisex rates (4)	$524.34	$434.60
Representative Contract Owner - 61 year old male (5)	$13.28	$10.63

(2) The WTB rider charges are deducted monthly pro-rata from Contract Value invested in the Sub-accounts.

(3) The charges shown are on an annual basis per $1,000 of WTB Additional Benefit.

(4) The charges shown for the WTB rider are based on joint owners, the oldest of whom is age 95, and unisex rates. The charge applicable to you will vary based on your attained age, single or joint ownership, and, where allowed by law, sex. A table of current annual charges can be found in Appendix E.

(5) The charges shown are for an assumed representative Contract Owner who is a 61 year old male using the single life table. The charge applicable to you will vary based on your attained age, single or joint ownership, and, where allowed by law, sex. A table of current annual charges can be found in Appendix E.

8

The Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expense Table shows the lowest and highest total operating expenses charged by the Portfolio companies that you pay indirectly during the time you own the Contract. The total operating expenses are expressed as an annual percentage of average daily net assets and are deducted from Portfolio assets. The amounts are based on expenses paid as of the end of the fiscal year December 31, 2013 . Actual expenses in the future may be higher or lower. For Portfolios that invest in shares of one or more acquired funds, the total annual operating expenses include fees and expenses incurred indirectly by the Portfolio as a result of investment in shares of one or more acquired funds. The fees and expenses (including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees and other expenses) for each individual Portfolio are contained in the prospectuses for each Portfolio.

TOTAL ANNUAL PORTFOLIO OPERATING EXPENSES (6)	Lowest	Highest
Expenses that are deducted from Portfolio assets, including management fees, distribution and/or service 12b-1 fees, and other expenses (before any waivers or expense reimbursement)	0.16%	27.11%
Expenses that are deducted from Portfolio assets, including management fees, distribution and/or service 12b-1 fees, and other expenses (after any waiver or expense reimbursement) (7)	0.06%	2.96%

(6) We reserve the right to implement, administer, and charge you for any fee or restriction, including redemption fees, that may be imposed by any underlying Portfolio.

(7) The range of total annual Portfolio operating expenses after any waiver or expense reimbursement takes into account contractual arrangements for certain Portfolios that require the investment advisor to reimburse or waive Portfolio operating expenses until at least April 30, 2015 . Advisors to certain Portfolios offered in the Contract agree to waive or reimburse advisory fees or other fees. This reduces Portfolio operating expenses. Such arrangements are described in more detail in the prospectus for each Portfolio.

EXAMPLES

These examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Contract with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts. These costs include Contract Owner transaction expenses, Contract fees, Separate Account annual expenses (including the mortality and expense risk charge, the Sub-account fund facilitation fee and, if applicable, any additional rider), and the Portfolio fees and expenses.

For purposes of calculating the examples showing the highest fees and expenses, we assume the imposition of the Sub-account fund facilitation fee even though we do not currently assess it. The examples do not reflect premium taxes that may apply depending on the state where you live, and assume no transfers or partial withdrawals. We based annual expenses of the underlying Portfolios on data provided by the Portfolio companies for the year ended December 31, 2013 . The examples do not take into consideration any fee waiver or reimbursement arrangements of the underlying Portfolios. If these arrangements were taken into consideration, the expenses shown would be lower. We did not independently verify the data provided, but we did prepare the examples.

The examples should not be considered a representation of past or future expenses. Your actual costs may be higher or lower. The 5% annual return assumed in the examples is purely hypothetical. Actual returns (investment performance) will vary and may be more or less than 5%.

1. THE ANNUITY CONTRACT

This prospectus describes generally applicable provisions of the Symetra True Variable Annuity Contract. It is designed to help you invest on a tax-deferred basis and meet long-term financial goals, such as retirement funding. The Contract provides for guaranteed income and death benefits, subject to applicable terms and conditions. You should not buy the Contract if you are looking for a short-term investment or if you cannot accept the risk of getting back less money than you put in.

The Contract is an agreement between Symetra Life and you, the Owner, where we promise to pay an income in the form of annuity payments, beginning on a date you select, or a death benefit. When you are investing money, your Contract is in the Accumulation Phase. Once you begin receiving annuity payments, your Contract is in the Income Phase.

The Contract is called a variable annuity because you can choose among the available Sub-accounts. Each Sub-account invests in a corresponding Portfolio, and you can make or lose money depending upon market conditions. The investment performance of the Sub-account(s) you select affects the value of your Contract and, therefore, affects the amount of the annuity payments available at the time of annuitization and your death benefit.

VARIATIONS

This prospectus describes the material rights and obligations under the Contract. Certain provisions of the Contract may be different from the general description in this prospectus due to variations required by state law. For example, state law may require different “free-look” periods, which is the amount of time allowed to examine the Contract and return it for a refund, and may impose different issue age limitations. The state in which your Contract is issued also governs whether or not certain riders, options, charges or fees are available or will vary under your Contract. Please see Appendix C for a listing of general state variations as well as your Contract for specific variations applicable to you. Any state variations will be included in your Contract or in riders or endorsements attached to your Contract.

OTHER CONTRACTS

We offer other variable annuity contracts that have different features and investment options. However, these other contracts also have different charges that would affect the Sub-account performance and may not be offered in your state. To obtain more information about these other contracts, contact us.

Transactions made through the Internet. Certain transactions made electronically through the Internet will be accepted if you provide us with certain identification information, such as a password or personal identification information. We will not be liable for following instructions we receive electronically through the Internet that we reasonably believe to be genuine. We may suspend, modify, or terminate our electronic transaction procedures at any time.

12

OWNER

The Owner (“you”) is as shown on the Contract application, unless changed. You, as the Owner, may exercise all ownership rights under the Contract. The Contract must be issued prior to the Owner reaching the maximum issue age as stated in the Contract. If your birthday falls between the application date and the Contract Date, we will issue the Contract based upon your age as of the application date if requested by you and subject to state regulations.

Joint Owners: A non-qualified Contract can be owned by joint Owners. Each joint Owner has equal ownership rights and must exercise those rights jointly, unless both Owners direct us otherwise in writing. Only two Owners are allowed per Contract. An Owner who is a non-natural person (e.g., a corporation or a trust) may not name a joint Owner.

If you elected the WTB rider, any joint Owner named on the Contract must be the spouse of the Owner. For information on spousal continuation, please see “Section 8 – Death Benefit and Optional Death Benefit Rider.” Any election otherwise will terminate the WTB rider elected.

Changes to Ownership: You may change the Owner or joint Owner by sending us a signed and dated request. If you designate someone else as Owner, that person must not have been older than the maximum issue age as of the Contract Date. The WTB rider will terminate if you add or replace an Owner to the Contract. Unless you specify otherwise, a change in ownership is effective as of the date you signed the notice of change, subject to any payments made or actions we may take prior to receipt of the notice.

Use care when naming joint Owners and making changes to the ownership of your Contract and consult your agent or other advisor if you have questions.

ANNUITANT

You initially name the Annuitant and any joint Annuitant on your Contract application. This designation can be changed at any time prior to the Annuity Date, unless the Contract is owned by a non-natural person (e.g., corporations or trusts). Unless you specify otherwise, a change in Annuitant is effective as of the date you signed the notice of change, subject to any payments made or actions we may take prior to receipt of the notice. Only two Annuitants are allowed per Contract. Each Annuitant must be age 85 or younger as of the Contract Date. Annuity payments must begin prior to the Annuitant reaching the maximum annuitization age as stated in the Contract. If there are joint Annuitants, the birth date of the older Annuitant will be used to determine the latest Annuity Date.

If you have not designated someone else prior to the Annuity Date, you are the Annuitant. For natural Owners, if you elected the WTB rider, you must also be the Annuitant(s). The WTB rider will terminate if you add or replace an Annuitant to the Contract.

BENEFICIARY

The Beneficiary is the person or entity that is entitled to receive a benefit as described in “Section 8 – Death Benefit and Optional Death Benefit Rider.” You initially name the Beneficiary on your Contract application and can change the Beneficiary at any time (by sending a signed and dated request) unless you have designated the Beneficiary as irrevocable. An irrevocable Beneficiary must consent in writing to any change. A new Beneficiary designation revokes any prior designation and is effective when signed by you. We are not responsible for the validity of any Beneficiary designation nor for any actions we may take prior to receiving and recording a Beneficiary change. After your death, the Beneficiary has the right to receive the death benefit or to change the Payee for remaining annuity payments. Thus, Beneficiaries should notify us of a death as promptly as possible.

ASSIGNMENT

You can assign the Contract unless restricted by applicable law; however, the new Owner cannot be older than the maximum issue age on the Contract Date. Assignments may result in current taxation and, if you are under age 59 ¹/2, a 10% tax penalty. If this Contract is assigned, we will treat it as a change of ownership and all rights will be transferred. If the WTB rider is in effect and you assign the Contract, the WTB rider will terminate. We are not bound by any assignment unless it is in writing. Assignments are effective on the date you sign the notice of assignment, subject to all payments made and actions we take before we receive a signed copy of the assignment form at our Contract Maintenance Office. We are not liable for payments made prior to receipt of an effective assignment. We are not responsible for the validity of any assignments, tax consequences, or actions we may take based on an assignment later determined to be invalid. Assigning the Contract or changing the Owner can have a negative impact on the death benefit. See “Section 8 – Death Benefit and Optional Death Benefit Rider.”

If your Contract is an Individual Retirement Annuity (“IRA”) or otherwise issued in connection with a tax-qualified retirement plan, your ability to assign the Contract may be limited.

2. PURCHASE

PURCHASE PAYMENTS

If you are age 85 or younger, you may purchase a Contract with a minimum initial Purchase Payment of $25,000. Additional Purchase Payments of $1,000 or more ($250 if made electronically) may be added at anytime during the Accumulation Phase. We may reduce the minimum Purchase Payment requirements under certain circumstances. For IRAs and Roth IRAs, because the minimum initial Purchase Payment we accept exceeds the annual contribution limits for IRAs and Roth IRAs, your initial Purchase Payment must include a rollover contribution.

We will not accept, without our prior approval, aggregate Purchase Payments in excess of $2 million dollars.

Purchase Payments should be made payable to Symetra Life Insurance Company and must be made in a form acceptable to us. You may choose to make Purchase Payments:

• By personal check; or

• By wire transfer.

We will not accept Purchase Payments made in the following forms:

• Cash;

• Credit cards; and

• Money orders or travelers checks.

We reserve the right to not accept third-party checks, however, in some circumstances and at our discretion, we may accept third-party checks that are from a rollover or transfer from other financial institutions.

Initial Purchase Payments. Your initial Purchase Payment must be forwarded to our Administrative Office and is normally credited to your Contract within two Business Days of our receipt at our Administrative Office. If your initial Purchase Payment is not in Good Order, we will contact you to get the necessary information. If we cannot get all the required information within five Business Days, we will either return your initial Purchase Payment or get permission to keep it until we have received the necessary information. However, if the necessary information is not received after 15 Business Days, we will reject your application and return the initial Purchase Payment to you. In most situations, your Contract Date is the date your application and initial Purchase Payment are received in Good Order.

We reserve the right to refuse any application or initial Purchase Payment. If we refuse an application or any Purchase Payment, we will return it to you within five Business Days.

We will not deem an application that is accompanied by an initial Purchase Payment sent to any other office besides our Administrative Office as received by us until it reaches our Administrative Office and is picked up and delivered to our processing office.

Additional Purchase Payments. Additional Purchase Payments may be made at any time by sending them to our Administrative Office and should include your Contract number. Additional Purchase Payments received in Good Order and mailed to our Administrative Office and picked up and delivered to our processing office will be credited to your Contract on the same Business Day as received by us. However, any Purchase Payment received after the end of a Business Day will be credited the next Business Day.

We will not deem Purchase Payments sent to any other office besides our Administrative Office as received by us until they reach our Administrative Office and are picked up and delivered to our processing office. Each Purchase Payment is subject to acceptance and approval by us.

We reserve the right to refuse any Purchase Payment that is over $2 million dollars; that aggregated with previous Purchase Payments, exceeds $2 million dollars; that does not meet our minimums; that is not in Good Order; that we determine is made for market timing purposes; or is otherwise contrary to law for Symetra Life to accept.

ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS

You tell us how to apply your initial Purchase Payment by specifying your desired allocation among the available Sub-accounts on the Contract application. Unless you tell us otherwise, subsequent Purchase Payments will be allocated in the same proportion as your most recent Purchase Payment (unless that was a Purchase Payment you directed us to allocate on a one-time-only basis). You may change the way subsequent Purchase Payments are allocated by providing us with written

14

instructions, by telephoning us or electronically by the Internet if we have your written authorization to accept telephone or Internet instructions. See “Section 5 – Transfers Among the Sub-accounts.”

ACCUMULATION UNITS

Your Contract Value will go up or down depending upon the investment performance of the Sub-account(s) you choose. In order to keep track of this, we use a unit of measure called an Accumulation Unit.

We calculate the value of an Accumulation Unit for each Sub-account at the time the NYSE closes each day, which is generally 4:00 PM Eastern Time. To determine the current Accumulation Unit value, we take the prior Business Day’s Accumulation Unit value and multiply it by the net investment factor for the current day. Changes in the Accumulation Unit value reflect the investment performance of each Sub-account as well as the deductions for the mortality and expense risk charge, Sub-account fund facilitation fee and taxes. The value of an Accumulation Unit will usually go up or down from day to day.

The net investment factor is used to measure the daily change in the Accumulation Unit value for each Sub-account. The net investment factor for any Sub-account for any Valuation Period is determined by dividing (1) by (2) and subtracting (3) where:

1.	is the net asset value per share of the applicable Portfolio held in the Sub-account determined as of the end of the current Valuation Period, plus the per-share amount of any dividend or capital gain distributions made by the Portfolio on shares held in the Sub-account if the ex-dividend date occurs during the current Valuation Period;
2.	is the net asset value per share of the Portfolio held in the Sub-account determined at the end of the prior Valuation Period; and
3.	is a daily factor representing the mortality and expense risk charge, the Sub-account fund facilitation fee and any taxes or amounts set aside as a reserve for taxes attributable to the applicable Contracts, expressed as a percentage of the total net assets of the Sub-account adjusted for the number of days in the Valuation Period.

When you make Purchase Payments or transfers into a Sub-account, we credit your Contract with Accumulation Units. We determine the number of Accumulation Units to credit by dividing the amount of the Purchase Payment allocated to a particular Sub-account by the value of the Accumulation Unit for that particular Sub-account. If we receive a Purchase Payment before the close of business on a Business Day, we will use that day’s Accumulation Unit value. If we receive a Purchase Payment after the close of business on a Business Day, we will use the following day’s Accumulation Unit value.

Example: Assume that we receive a $10,000 Purchase Payment from you. You have told us you want this to go to the Fidelity VIP Mid Cap Sub-account. At the end of the Business Day that we received the Purchase Payment, we determine that the value of an Accumulation Unit for the Fidelity VIP Mid Cap Sub-account is $34.12. We then divide $10,000 by $34.12 and credit your Contract on that night with 293.10 Accumulation Units for the Fidelity VIP Mid Cap Sub-account.

We process withdrawals and transfers of Contract Value from a Sub-account in a similar manner using the applicable Accumulation Unit value for the Sub-accounts involved in the transaction. A withdrawal involves the deduction of Accumulation Units of the Sub-accounts from which the withdrawal is taken. Transfers involve the deduction of Accumulation Units of the Sub-accounts from which the transfer is taken and the crediting of Accumulation Units of the Sub-accounts to which the transfer is made.

RIGHT TO EXAMINE

You may cancel the Contract without charge by returning it to us or to your registered representative within the period stated on the front page of your Contract. We include a refund of all charges that may have been deducted from your Contract if you cancel your Contract during this period. This period will be at least 10 days (or longer in some states). You will receive your Contract Value plus the refund of all charges. If the Contract is a replacement of another insurance or annuity contract, you may return the Contract within 30 days from the date you received it, and receive a refund of the Contract Value plus any fees or charges deducted under the Contract. Because of the market risks associated with investing in the Sub-accounts, the Contract Value returned may be more or less than the Purchase Payments you have paid. In some states, we may be required to return to you the amount of the Purchase Payments paid to us. In this case, Symetra Life will be subject to the investment risk. When we are required to guarantee a return of Purchase Payments, we will apply amounts designated for the Sub-accounts to the money market Sub-account available under the Contract until the expiration of the right to examine period. These amounts will then be allocated in the manner you selected unless you have canceled the Contract.

For Contracts purchased as an IRA and returned to us within seven days after you receive it, Symetra Life will refund the greater of your Contract Value or your Purchase Payments. During this seven-day period, we will allocate the Purchase Payments designated for the various Portfolios to the then available money market Portfolio. After seven days, your state’s right to examine provision, as shown in your Contract, will continue to apply. If your state’s right to examine provision is

15

longer than seven days and requires a return of Purchase Payment, we will continue to allocate amounts designated for the Sub-accounts to the money market Portfolio offered within your Contract until the right to examine period expires. Upon the expiration of the seven-day period or the right to examine period as stated on your Contract (for those states that have a free look provision longer than seven days and require a return of Purchase Payment), Purchase Payments will then be allocated in the manner you selected unless you have cancelled the Contract.

For a state-by-state description of material variations of this Contract, including the right to examine period, see Appendix C later in this Prospectus.

3. ANNUITY PAYMENTS (INCOME PHASE)

During the Income Phase, the Payee will receive payments from your annuity. The annuity option you select will determine, among other things, the annuity payment start date and frequency. Switching to the Income Phase is irrevocable. Once you begin receiving annuity payments, you cannot switch back to the Accumulation Phase. Once the Income Phase begins, you cannot add Purchase Payments, make withdrawals, change or add an Annuitant, or change the annuity option. When the entire Contract Value has been annuitized, no death benefit will be applicable. If you transfer the right to receive annuity payments to someone else, there may be gift and income tax consequences. If premium taxes are required by state law, these taxes will be deducted from your Contract Value before the annuity payments are calculated.

ANNUITY DATE

Generally, the Income Phase will start no later than the date the oldest Annuitant attains age 95, but may be earlier for certain qualified Contracts or if required by law. We will send notice to you prior to the scheduled Annuity Date and request that you verify all the information we currently have on file. At this time, you may request a different Annuity Date, including a date later than the scheduled Annuity Date. The new Annuity Date may not be later than the 101^st birthday of the oldest Annuitant. Any extension of an Annuity Date is subject to our approval. Any extension of the Annuity Date past age 95 will require a termination of the WTB rider, if elected, prior to our approval of the extension.

PARTIAL ANNUITIZATION

You may choose to annuitize a portion of your Contract Value. In this situation, your Contract Value will be divided into two parts. The non-annuitized portion would remain in the Accumulation Phase, while the annuitized portion would be moved to the Income Phase. The amount of the Contract Value you choose to apply to an annuity option will be treated as a withdrawal and impact the death benefit and the amount payable under any optional death benefit rider as shown in Appendix D.

Caution should be exercised in choosing to annuitize a portion of Contract Value. Also, if this is a qualified Contract, you may need to meet required minimum distribution rules, which can be quite complex. Before choosing to annuitize all or a portion of your Contract Value, you should consult your tax advisor. See “Section 9 – Taxes” for more information.

ANNUITY OPTIONS

You can switch to the Income Phase at any time by notifying us in writing at least 30 days prior to the date that you want annuity payments to begin. You name the Payee when you elect an annuity option and you may change the Payee designation at any time by writing to us. You may select or change an annuity option at any time prior to switching to the Income Phase by completing an election form that you can request in writing or by phone from us or by downloading the form from our web site.

ANNUITY PAYMENTS

Annuity payments will be made on a fixed basis and the dollar amount of the annuity payments will not vary with investment performance. Your Contract contains the Guaranteed Fixed Annuity Purchase Rate Table we use to determine the amount of your annuity payments under all life annuity options. We determine the amount of your annuity payments by dividing your Contract Value being annuitized by the amount shown in the table for your age and annuity option selected. The table factors in an assumed effective interest rate of 1.0%. Payout rates will never be less than those shown in your Contract but if current rates are more favorable to you, we will determine your annuity payments based upon the more favorable rates.

You may choose one of the annuity options listed below or any other option you want and that we agree to provide. The amount of each annuity payment depends on many factors including the guarantees, if any, under the annuity option you choose, the frequency of annuity payments, the Annuitant’s age at the time you switch to the Income Phase, and, under some Contracts, the Annuitant’s sex. If you choose a life annuity option, the number of annuity payments the Payee receives depends on how long the Annuitant lives, not the Annuitant’s life expectancy. The available annuity options are as follows:

Life Annuity. The Payee receives annuity payments as long as the Annuitant is living. Annuity payments stop when the Annuitant dies. There is no minimum number of payments with this option.

16

Life Annuity with Guaranteed Period. The Payee receives annuity payments for the longer of the Annuitant’s life or a guaranteed period, as selected by you and agreed to by us. The amount of the annuity payments may be affected by the length of the guaranteed period you select. A shorter guaranteed period will result in higher annuity payments during the Annuitant’s life and fewer or no remaining guaranteed payments to the Payee. A longer guaranteed period will result in lower annuity payments. If the Annuitant dies before the guaranteed payments have been made, the remaining payments will be made to the Payee. Annuity payments stop on the later of the date the Annuitant dies or the date the last guaranteed payment is made.

Joint and Survivor Life Annuity. The Payee receives annuity payments as long as either Annuitant is living. After either Annuitant dies, the Payee receives a specified percentage of each annuity payment as long as the other Annuitant is living. You name the joint Annuitant, Payee and payment percentages at the time you elect this option and they cannot be changed once the Income Phase begins. Choosing lower percentages to be paid after the death of either Annuitant results in higher payments while both Annuitants are living. Annuity payments stop the later of the date the Annuitant dies or the date the joint Annuitant dies.

Joint and Survivor Life Annuity with Guaranteed Period. The Payee receives annuity payments for the longer of the Annuitant’s life, the joint Annuitant’s life or a guaranteed period, as selected by you and agreed to by us. The full benefit amount will continue to be paid to the Payee until the later of the first death of either the Annuitant or joint Annuitant and the end of the guaranteed period. If only one Annuitant is alive when the guaranteed period ends, a percentage of the payment amount will continue to be paid to the Payee. You name the joint Annuitant, Payee and payment percentages at the time you elect this option. The joint Annuitant and payment percentages cannot be changed once the Income Phase begins. Choosing lower percentages to be paid after the death of either Annuitant results in higher payments while both Annuitants are living. Annuity payments stop the later of the date the Annuitant dies, the joint Annuitant dies or the date the last guaranteed payment is made.

Period Certain Annuity. The Payee receives annuity payments for a guaranteed period of time, as selected by you and agreed to by us. This guaranteed period may not exceed the Annuitant’s life expectancy. This option does not guarantee payments for the rest of the Annuitant’s life. If your Contract is a qualified Contract, period certain payments without a life contingency may not satisfy minimum required distribution rules. Annuity payments stop at the end of the guaranteed period. Consult a tax advisor before electing this option.

If you do not choose an annuity option at least 30 days before the latest Annuity Date specified in your Contract, we will make annuity payments under the Life Annuity with Guaranteed Period using a guaranteed period of 10 years.

You may choose to have annuity payments made on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis. If state law allows, we may choose to distribute your Contract Value in a lump sum if it is equal to or less than $2,000 or monthly annuity payments would be less than $20. We also reserve the right to change the payment frequency if payment amounts would be less than $250. You may elect to have payments delivered by mail or electronically transferred to a bank account.

Proof of Age or Sex. We may require proof of age or sex before beginning annuity payments under any basic annuity option based on life or life expectancy. If the age or sex of any Annuitant has been misstated, annuity payments will be based on the corrected information. Underpayments will be made up in a lump sum with the next scheduled payment. Overpayments will be deducted from future payments until the total is repaid. We will credit interest on underpayments but will not charge interest on overpayments. We may require evidence satisfactory to us that an Annuitant is living before we make any payment.

4. SUB-ACCOUNT OPTIONS

SUB-ACCOUNT OPTIONS

During the Accumulation Phase, you may allocate your Purchase Payments and Contract Value to any of the Sub-accounts available under the Contract. Each Sub-account invests exclusively in the shares of one underlying Portfolio that has its own investment objective. The Portfolios are not offered directly to the public, but are available to life insurance companies and their separate accounts as investment options for variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts and to qualified plans.

A list of each Portfolio, its investment objective, and its investment advisor is listed under Appendix B. However, not all Portfolios are available to all Contract Owners. There is no assurance that any of the Portfolios will achieve their stated objectives. You can find more detailed information about the Portfolios, including a description of risks and expenses, in the prospectuses for the Portfolios, which can be obtained without charge by contacting our Contract Maintenance Office. You

17

should read those prospectuses carefully before investing. If you have received a summary prospectus for any of the Portfolios listed in Appendix B, please follow the instructions on the first page of the summary prospectus to obtain a copy of the full Portfolio prospectus.

Currently we do not assess a Sub-account fund facilitation fee under the Contract. However, we reserve the right to impose a Sub-account fund facilitation fee on Contract Value allocated to any of the Sub-accounts. See “Section 7 – Charges and Expenses” for more information.

In addition to selling shares to the Separate Account, the Portfolios may sell shares to other separate accounts of other insurance companies to support variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and to qualified plans. It is possible that, in the future, it may be disadvantageous for variable life insurance separate accounts and variable annuity separate accounts of life insurance companies to invest simultaneously in the Portfolios. Currently, neither we nor the Portfolios foresee any such disadvantages. The Portfolios must monitor events to identify material conflicts between such owners and determine what action, if any, should be taken. In addition, if we believe a Portfolio’s response to any of those events conflicts with or insufficiently protects Contract Owners, we will take appropriate action. For more information about the risks associated with the use of the same funding vehicle for both variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies of various insurance companies and/or qualified plans, see the prospectuses of the Portfolios that are available upon request if they do not accompany this prospectus.

The investment performance for the Portfolios may differ substantially from publicly traded mutual funds with similar names and objectives. There can be no assurance, and we make no representation, that the investment performance of the Portfolios will be comparable to any other Portfolio, even those with the same investment objectives and policies and advisor or manager. Certain Portfolios available through the Contract have names similar to funds not available through the Contract. The performance of a fund not available through the Contract does not indicate performance of a similarly named Portfolio available through the Contract. Differences in fund size, actual investments held, fund expenses, and other factors all contribute to differences in fund performance. For all these reasons, you should expect investment results to differ.

Please note that there can be no assurance that any money market portfolio will be able to maintain a stable net asset value per share. During extended periods of low interest rates, and due in part to Contract fees and expenses, the yields of any Sub-account investing in a money market portfolio may also become extremely low and possibly negative.

SHORT-TERM REDEMPTION FEES

Certain Sub-accounts invest in Portfolios that impose a short-term redemption fee. Those Portfolios are: Fidelity VIP Energy Portfolio, Fidelity VIP Financial Services Portfolio, and the Fidelity VIP Technology Portfolio. An Owner who chooses to redeem Accumulation Units of a Sub-account invested in any of these Portfolios will be subject to a 1.00% short-term trading fee if the Accumulation Unit has been held for less than 60 days. For this purpose, Accumulation Units held longest will be treated as being redeemed first and Accumulation Units held shortest as being redeemed last.

Redemption fees will be incurred when you withdraw Contract Value invested in one of the Sub-accounts or you transfer Contract Value out of one of these Sub-accounts. The fee applies to both one-time transactions, scheduled transfers and withdrawals involving the Sub-accounts. The redemption fee will not apply to deductions from your Contract Value to pay the mortality and expense risk charge or other charges under the Contract. The redemption fee will also not apply to annuity payments or to any other transactions the applicable Portfolio or Symetra Life designates as exempt.

Redemption Fee Example 1: Assume you allocate Contract Value to the Fidelity VIP Energy Sub-account and we credit your Contract with 100 Accumulation Units of that Sub-account. Further assume that 58 days later you make a transfer out of the Fidelity VIP Energy Sub-account redeeming 50 Accumulation Units and the value of those 50 Accumulation Units is equal to $500. We would assess a redemption fee equal to 1% of $500. The redemption fee would be equal to $5.00 (1% of $500).

Redemption Fee Example 2: Assume you allocate Contract Value to the Fidelity VIP Energy Sub-account and we credit your Contract with 100 Accumulation Units of that Sub-account. On day 50, you allocate additional Contract Value to the Fidelity VIP Energy Sub-account and we credit your Contract with another 50 Accumulation Units of that Sub-account. Further assume, on day 65, you make a transfer out of the Fidelity VIP Energy Sub-account, redeeming 125 Accumulation Units, and the value of each Accumulation Unit is $10.

The first step is to determine which Accumulation Units are redeemed. Using the first-in, first-out rule, all 100 Accumulation Units purchased on day one are redeemed, and 25 of the 50 Accumulation Units purchased on day 50 are redeemed. The 100 Accumulation Units purchased on day one are not subject to the redemption fee, but the 25 Accumulation Units purchased on day 50 are subject to the fee. The value of the Accumulation Units subject to the redemption fee is $250 (25 units at $10 per unit). The redemption fee is $2.50 (1% of $250).

18

CHANGES TO THE SUB-ACCOUNTS

We reserve the right to add, combine, restrict, or remove any Sub-account under your Contract. If any shares of the Portfolios are no longer available, or if in our view no longer meet the purpose of the Contract, it may be necessary to substitute shares of another Portfolio. New or substitute Portfolios may have different fees and expenses and their availability may be limited to certain classes of purchasers. It may also be necessary to close a Sub-account to allocations of new Purchase Payments by existing or new Contract Owners and we reserve the right to do so at any time and in our discretion. We will seek prior approval of the SEC (to the extent required by law) and give you notice before making any changes to the Sub-accounts.

COMPENSATION WE RECEIVE FROM PORTFOLIOS

We have agreements with each of the Portfolio advisors or their affiliates that describe the administrative practices and responsibilities of the parties. We receive compensation from some or all of the Portfolios or their investment advisors, administrators, and/or distributors (or their affiliates) in connection with administrative or other services provided by us with respect to the Portfolios. We may use this compensation for any purpose, including paying expenses that we incur in promoting, issuing, distributing and administering the Contract. We also receive this compensation for providing services to Contract Owners invested in the Portfolios on behalf of the Portfolios. The amounts we receive, if any, may be different for different Portfolios, and usually depends on how much we have invested in the applicable Portfolio. The compensation amount is typically determined by multiplying a specified annual percentage rate by the average net assets held in that Portfolio for the variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies issued by us that offer that particular Portfolio. Currently, the maximum percentage rate we receive for any Portfolio offered under this Contract is 0.30%. Some investment advisors, administrators, and/or distributors may pay us less; some do not pay us any such compensation.

The compensation we receive is paid by the advisor or its affiliate out of profits which may include fees the advisor deducted from fund assets or from the advisor’s (or its affiliate’s) other sources of revenue. You will bear the costs of these fees indirectly through your investment in the Sub-accounts that invest in these Portfolios. You may obtain a list of such fees that we receive by contacting us at our Contract Maintenance Office. The compensation that we receive may be significant and we may profit from this compensation.

When determining which Portfolios to offer in our variable Contracts, we consider the Portfolios’ name recognition, investment objective, performance, expenses and reputation. We also consider the amount of compensation that we receive from the Portfolios, their advisors, or their distributors. We review our Portfolios periodically. Based upon our review, we may remove or restrict allocation of additional Purchase Payments and/or transfers of Contract Value to a Portfolio if the Portfolio no longer meets one or more of the criteria or other criteria we set from time to time at our sole discretion. We do not recommend any particular Portfolio, and we do not provide investment advice.

Compensation for selling the Contracts is set by Symetra Life. Currently we do not pay any compensation directly to broker-dealers selling this Contract but may pay compensation to wholesalers. See “Section 10 – Other Information – Distribution (Principal Underwriter)” for more information.

VOTING RIGHTS

Symetra Life is the legal owner of the Portfolios’ shares. However, when a Portfolio solicits proxies in connection with a shareholder vote, we are required to ask you for instructions as to how to vote those shares. You, or the Beneficiary of your Contract, will have the right to give voting instructions and we will vote shares in accordance with the instructions we receive from you. We vote Portfolio shares for which no timely instructions are received in proportion to the voting instructions that are received with respect to that Portfolio. For this reason, a small number of contract owners may control the outcome of a vote. Should we determine that we are no longer required to comply with the above, we will vote the shares in our own right.

5. TRANSFERS AMONG THE SUB-ACCOUNTS

During the Accumulation Phase you can transfer money among the Sub-accounts 25 times per Contract Year free of charge. Each additional transfer in excess of this limit will have a charge of $25. The Contract allows Symetra Life to waive transfer charges for any transfer made using systematic transfer strategies. Currently, the systematic transfer strategies under which we waive transfer charges are dollar cost averaging, Sub-account rebalancing and customized transfer instructions. These are described in more detail under “Scheduled Transfers”. All transfers occurring on the same Business Day will be counted as a single transfer for purposes of assessing the $25 transfer charge.

Example: Assume that your Contract Date is January 1^st and you make 5 transfers each Contract Month. Your transfers through May would be free of charge. In June, because you exceeded the limit of 25 free transfers per Contract Year, you would incur a $25 transfer charge for each transfer made during the remainder of that Contract Year.

19

	Jan	Feb	Mar	Apr	May	June	July	Aug	Sept	Oct	Nov	Dec
Transfers Per Month	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5
Contract Year Total	5	10	15	20	25	30	35	40	45	50	55	60
Transfer Charge	$0	$0	$0	$0	$0	$125	$125	$125	$125	$125	$125	$125

The minimum amount you can transfer out of any Sub-account at one time is $500, or your entire Contract Value invested in the Sub-account if less. If a transfer will result in the remaining balance in a Sub-account being less than $500, you must transfer the entire amount out of the Sub-account.

TRANSFER TRANSACTIONS AVAILABLE

We may accept transfers by signed written request or at our discretion, by telephone, or, if available, electronically by the Internet. Each transfer must identify:

• your Contract number;

• the amount of the transfer; and

• which Sub-accounts are affected.

We cannot process your transfer request until we have received the request at our Contract Maintenance Office. Transfer requests will be effective and valued on the Business Day they are received by us in Good Order.

Transfers by telephone will be accepted if we have properly signed authorization on record. You may authorize someone else to make transfers by telephone on your behalf. Symetra Life will not be liable for any failure to question or challenge such request for transfer as long as there is a valid signed authorization on record at Symetra Life.

Transfers by Internet will be accepted if you provide us with certain identification information, such as a password or personal identification information. However, we do not accept transfer requests sent by e-mail. Transfer instructions you send electronically through the Internet are considered to be received by us at the time and date stated on the electronic acknowledgment we return to you. If you do not receive an electronic acknowledgment, you should telephone us as soon as possible.

Although we use reasonable procedures, including recording all telephone instructions and requiring certain personal information to prevent unauthorized account access, we cannot assure you that telephone or Internet activity will be completely secure or free of delays or malfunctions. If you choose to make transfers by telephone or Internet, you must be willing to assume the risk of loss that may occur despite our reasonable efforts to verify identity. We are not responsible for the negligence or wrongful acts of third parties.

We cannot guarantee that telephone transactions will always be available. For example, our offices may be closed during severe weather emergencies, or there may be interruptions in telephone service beyond our control. Moreover, if the volume of calls is unusually high, we may not have someone immediately available to receive your request.

Likewise, we cannot guarantee that online transactions processed via the Internet will always be possible. Telephone and computer systems, whether yours, your Internet service provider’s, your representative’s, or Symetra Life’s, can experience outages or slowdowns for a variety of reasons. These outages or slowdowns may prevent or delay our receipt of your request.

You also should protect your identification information because self-service options will be available to anyone who provides your identification information. We will not be able to verify that the person using your personal information and providing instructions is you or a person authorized by you.

SCHEDULED TRANSFERS

During the Accumulation Phase, you can choose among several systematic transfer strategies that are available at no charge. We refer to these systematic transfer strategies as “scheduled transfers” and they will not count against your free transfer limit as discussed above. We may impose restrictions on the number of scheduled transfers that can be initiated during each Contract Year or on the Sub-accounts available for scheduled transfers. If such restrictions are imposed or we change the Sub-accounts available, we will notify you in writing. We reserve the right to restrict or remove any of the scheduled transfer options available.

Dollar Cost Averaging. This strategy is designed to achieve a lower average cost per Accumulation Unit over time. It does not assure a profit or protect against a loss. If your balance in a Sub-account is at least $5,000, you can

20

systematically transfer set amounts of at least $500 each month or quarter from that Sub-account to any of the other Sub-accounts. If you choose to transfer amounts among more than one Sub-account, transfers into each Sub-account must be at least $50. Once started, dollar cost averaging will continue until you instruct us to stop or all money has been transferred out of the Sub-account designated as the source of the scheduled transfer.

Sub-account Rebalancing. After your money has been invested, the investment performance of the Sub-accounts may cause the percentage in each Sub-account to change from your original allocations. You can instruct us to adjust your investment in the Sub-accounts, on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis, to maintain a predetermined percentage allocation of Contract Value among the Sub-accounts. Sub-account rebalancing can be used with dollar cost averaging. The $500 minimum transfer amount and remaining Sub-account balance restriction of $500 are waived for Sub-account rebalancing.

Customized Transfer and Redemption Instructions. You can instruct us to transfer Contract Value among the Sub-accounts or redeem certain amounts in the Sub-accounts in accordance with systematic investment instructions you provide and we agree to implement. You will continue to transfer Contract Value or redeem specific amounts in accordance with these instructions until changed or terminated by you.

LIMITS ON EXCESSIVE TRANSFERS AND MARKET TIMING ACTIVITY

Effects of Excessive Transfers and Market Timing Activity. The Contract and the Portfolios are not designed for excessive short term trading or professional market timing, or for organizations or other persons that make large, or frequent transfers. Frequent transfers between and among the Sub-accounts may be disruptive to Portfolio management strategies by causing forced and unplanned Portfolio turnover, and increased trading and transaction costs. In addition, these activities may require a Portfolio to maintain liquid assets rather than investing them for growth, resulting in lost opportunity costs that must be indirectly borne by Contract owners. These disruptive activities may increase expenses and adversely affect Portfolio performance, thereby negatively impacting long-term Contract owners.

Detection and Deterrence. Symetra Life discourages and does not accommodate frequent transfers or market timing activity. Due to the potential adverse consequences to Contract Owners, Portfolios, Portfolio shareholders, and the Separate Account, we have established certain policies and procedures to aid us in detecting and deterring Contract Owners that may be engaging in frequent trading and/or market timing activities. Under these policies and procedures, various analytics are used to evaluate factors that may be indicative of frequent trading. For example, transactions in Portfolios that exceed certain monetary thresholds may be scrutinized. Symetra Life also may review transactions that occur close in time to other transactions in the same Contract or in multiple Contracts under common ownership or influence. Trading activity that is identified through these procedures, or as a result of any other information available, will be evaluated to determine whether such activity might constitute frequent trading. These procedures may be modified from time to time as appropriate to improve the detection of frequent trading, to facilitate monitoring for frequent trading in particular retirement plans or other accounts, and to comply with applicable laws.

In addition to the broad ability to restrict potentially harmful trading as described above, Symetra Life has adopted a 90-day purchase block policy under which any Contract Owner redeeming Accumulation Units having a value of $10,000 or more from a Portfolio will be precluded from investing in that Portfolio for 90 calendar days after the redemption transaction. This policy also applies to redemptions and purchases that are part of transfer transactions. Symetra Life will grant two exceptions to the 90-day purchase block policy, per rolling 12-month period. We will provide you written notice after you trigger each exception to the 90-day purchase block policy.

Transactions of $10,000 or less, systematic transactions, transactions in money market Sub-accounts, mandatory retirement distributions, purchase transactions involving transfers of assets, rollovers, Roth IRA conversions and any other transaction we may deem would not lend itself to market timing abuse will be exempt from the 90-day purchase block policy. Transactions in certain rebalancing, asset allocation programs, if available, and other advisory programs may also be exempt from the 90-day purchase block policy, subject to prior written approval by Symetra Life.

A market timer may be the Contract Owner or the Owner’s authorized representative such as a registered investment advisor or registered representative that has trading discretion over a Contract.

In our sole discretion, we may revise our procedures at any time without prior notice to better detect and deter market timing or other disruptive trading to comply with regulatory requirements and/or to impose additional or alternate restrictions such as imposing dollar or percentage limits on transfers or requiring transfers be submitted via U.S. mail. If we modify our procedures, they will be applied uniformly to all Contract Owners.

If a transfer request is rejected or your transfer privileges have been restricted for any reason, we will attempt to inform you or your authorized agent by phone the next Business Day. If we do not succeed in reaching you or your authorized agent by

21

phone, we will send a letter to your address of record. Our policies regarding transfer restrictions and rejections are applied uniformly, and we do not make exceptions for particular Contract Owners.

We will use our best efforts to prevent market timing and other abusive trading practices, but the determination of whether market timing is occurring is subjective. We may not be able to detect all market timers or short term traders, and we may not be able to prevent transfers by those we do detect. In addition, the terms of the Contract may also limit our ability to restrict or deter harmful transfers. If we are unable to detect or prevent market timing, the effect of such market timing may result in additional transaction costs for the Portfolios and dilution of long-term Portfolio returns. Thus, your Contract Value may be lower due to lower returns in your Sub-account investments.

Underlying Portfolio Frequent Trading Policies. The Portfolio managers to whom we submit purchase and redemption orders may also detect large or unusual patterns of trades submitted by us on behalf of all our variable annuity contract owners and variable life policy owners. Those Portfolio managers may require us to investigate whether any of our contract owners are engaged in market timing or other similar activity and to cooperate with them to discourage such activity. If the Portfolio managers believe you are engaged in market timing activity, they may block you from making transfers or purchases to their Portfolios. In addition, federal regulations may require us to provide individual transaction and contract owner information to the Portfolio managers when requested.

The Portfolios to which we submit purchase and redemption orders may adopt unique policies and procedures designed to deter excessive trading or market timing. Those policies and procedures, when applicable, are described in the prospectuses for each of the Portfolios available for investment by you. We have entered into a written agreement, as required by SEC regulation, with each underlying Portfolio or its principal underwriter. These agreements obligate us to promptly provide to the underlying Portfolio upon request certain information about the trading activity of individual contract owners. The Portfolios may require us to execute their instructions to restrict or prohibit further purchases or transfers by specific contract owners who violate the frequent trading policies established by the underlying Portfolio.

In cases of large or frequent transfers, the Portfolio managers or Symetra Life may reject trades that are determined to be detrimental to other Portfolio shareholders or violate the Portfolios’ policies and procedures. Therefore, we reserve the right to reject, without prior notice, any transfer request to a Sub-account that invests in the Portfolio if the Portfolio manager rejects such trade or the trade violates a Portfolio’s policies and procedures. If a Portfolio refuses to accept a transfer request we have already processed, we will reverse the transaction within one to two Business Days. We will notify you or your authorized agent in writing or by phone if your transfer has been rejected or reversed. We further reserve the right to implement, administer, and charge you for any fee or restriction, including redemption fees, imposed by any underlying Portfolio. Redemption fees, transfer limits, and other procedures or restrictions may be more or less successful than ours in deterring market timing or other disruptive trading and in preventing or limiting harm from such trading. You should read the prospectus of each Portfolio for more information about its ability to refuse or restrict purchases or redemptions of its shares and to impose redemption fees.

Omnibus Order. Contract Owners and other persons with material rights under the Contracts also should be aware that the purchase and redemption orders received by the underlying Portfolios generally are “omnibus” orders from intermediaries such as contracts and separate accounts funding variable contracts. The omnibus orders reflect the aggregation and netting of multiple orders from individual retirement plan participants and individual owners of variable contracts. The omnibus nature of these orders may limit the underlying Portfolios’ ability to apply their respective frequent trading policies and procedures. We cannot guarantee that the underlying Portfolios will not be harmed by transfer activity relating to other insurance companies that may invest in the underlying Portfolios. These other insurance companies are responsible for their own policies and procedures regarding frequent transfer activity. If their policies and procedures fail to successfully discourage frequent transfer activity, it will affect other owners of underlying Portfolio shares, as well as the owners of all of the variable annuity contracts (or variable life policies), including ours, whose variable investment options correspond to the affected underlying Portfolios. In addition, if an underlying Portfolio believes that an omnibus order we submit may reflect one or more transfer requests from owners engaged in frequent transfer activity, the underlying Portfolio may reject the entire omnibus order and thereby delay or prevent us from implementing your request. If an underlying Portfolio rejects an omnibus order, we will notify you of the actions taken that affect your request.

6. ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY

Under your Contract, money may be accessed:

• by making partial withdrawals during the Accumulation Phase;

• surrendering your Contract during the Accumulation Phase;

22

• by taking repetitive withdrawals during the Accumulation Phase;

• by receiving payments during the Income Phase (see “Section 3 - Annuity Payments (Income Phase)”); or

• when a death benefit is paid to your Beneficiary (see “Section 8 - Death Benefit and Optional Death Benefit Rider”).

PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS

During the Accumulation Phase, you can make partial withdrawals from your Contract Value by writing to us at our Contract Maintenance Office. However, partial withdrawals may be restricted or prohibited by the terms of qualified Contracts. Unless you tell us otherwise, partial withdrawals will be taken pro-rata from the Sub-accounts. Withdrawals from the Sub-accounts will be effective as of the Business Day we receive the request in Good Order and are payable within seven calendar days. See “Section 7 - Charges and Expenses” for more information. Withdrawals, including any charges, reduce the number of Accumulation Units and the death benefit. Income taxes, tax penalties and certain restrictions may also apply. See “Section 9 - Taxes.”

MINIMUM VALUE REQUIREMENTS

You must withdraw the entire amount out of a Sub-account if, after a withdrawal, the remaining value in the Sub-account would be less than $500. Similarly, you must withdraw the entire Contract Value that has not been annuitized and your Contract will terminate if, after a withdrawal, the remaining Contract Value would be less than $2,000. However, negative investment performance alone will not cause a forced withdrawal.

SURRENDERING YOUR CONTRACT

You can request a surrender of your Contract Value that has not been annuitized. For a surrender to be effective, we must receive your written request at our Contract Maintenance Office. For a full surrender, all benefits will terminate as of the Business Day we receive the required information to process your surrender request. Your surrender value will be equal to your Contract Value which has not been annuitized. We will determine your surrender value as of the Business Day we receive your request in Good Order and make payment to you within seven calendar days.

REPETITIVE WITHDRAWALS

Repetitive withdrawals allow you to automatically withdraw payments of a pre-determined dollar amount or fixed percentage of Contract Value that you request from a specified Sub-account monthly, quarterly, or annually. You may request repetitive withdrawals by completing the appropriate form and sending it to our Contract Maintenance Office. Repetitive withdrawals may be used to avoid tax penalties for premature withdrawals or to satisfy distribution requirements of certain qualified contracts. To do this they must be a series of substantially equal withdrawals made at least annually and based on:

• your life expectancy; or

• the joint life expectancy of you and a Beneficiary.

You may begin repetitive withdrawals based on life expectancy by providing us with your gender and verification of age in order for us to calculate the monthly, quarterly, or annual withdrawal amount. We calculate the amount of a repetitive withdrawal based on life expectancy by dividing the applicable Contract Value by the life expectancy of the Owner as determined by using the IRS single life table. If it is a joint life expectancy, then we divide the applicable Contract Value by the life expectancy of the Owner and joint Owner (or Beneficiary) by the IRS joint life table.

Example One: Assume that the Contract Value is equal to $100,000 and the Owner requests a repetitive withdrawal and is age 55. Based on the IRS single life table, the life expectancy of an Owner age 55 is 29.6 years. The first repetitive withdrawal amount is equal to $100,000 divided by 29.6 which equals an annual payment of $3,378.38.

Example Two: Assume that when the Contract Owner is age 56, the Contract Value is equal to $101,453. The life expectancy of the Owner is 28.7 years. The repetitive withdrawal amount is equal to $101,453 divided by 28.7 which equals an annual payment of $3,534.95.

Repetitive withdrawals that are based on life expectancy may allow you to avoid the early withdrawal tax penalty of 10% that you would otherwise pay for taking withdrawals prior to age 59 ¹/2. If you take additional withdrawals, annuitize either a portion or all of your Contract Value, or otherwise modify or stop these repetitive withdrawals, however, there may be tax consequences and penalties. You should talk to your tax advisor for more information on taking repetitive withdrawals to avoid the 10% tax penalty.

If you make repetitive withdrawals that are not based on life expectancy, the same restrictions, income taxes, and tax penalties that apply to any other withdrawals also apply to repetitive withdrawals.

23

AUTHORITY OF THIRD PARTIES TO MAKE TRANSACTIONS

If you have engaged a third party and submitted our third party authorization form, you authorize the third party to allocate your Contract Value among the Sub-accounts and make changes to these allocations. We are not a party to any agreement you have with a third party to provide advice regarding the allocation of your Contract Value, and we do not supervise or perform due diligence on anyone who may provide such allocation advice. Your authorization includes making transactions over the telephone and Internet as well as receiving statements and other financial information regarding your Contract. We deem that all transactions directed by your third party have been authorized by you. You must contact us immediately if you revoke this authorization. We will not be responsible for acting on instructions from your authorized third party until we receive notification of the revocation of authority. We may also suspend, cancel or limit these authorizations at any time. Transactions made on your behalf are also subject to the restrictions on transfers discussed in “Section 5- Transfers Among the Sub-Accounts - Limits On Excessive Transfers And Market Timing Activity”. Any transfer restriction imposed will be at the Contract level. Therefore, transactions made by your authorized third party that we deem violate these policies will restrict the transactions allowed by you.

Investment Advisor Fees. If you have authorized an investment advisor to make transactions on your behalf, such authorization includes making withdrawals to pay an investment advisor’s fee in the amount and at the times directed to us by the authorized investment advisor. We do not verify that amounts withdrawn from your Contract Value, including amounts withdrawn to pay for the investment advisor’s fees, are within the terms of your agreement with your investment advisor. We may impose limits on the amounts your investment advisor can withdraw from your Contract Value for payment of investment advisor fees pursuant to our administrative rules. The investment advisor fee is described in your disclosure statement provided by the investment advisor. You should consult with your investment advisor for details regarding the services provided and any fees or charges for those services. For non-qualified Contracts, any withdrawals made for payment of investment advisor fees are taxable distributions to you. Please see “Section 9-Taxes” for more information.

SENDING FORMS AND TRANSACTION REQUESTS IN GOOD ORDER

We cannot process your transaction requests until we have received them in Good Order. Good Order means the actual receipt by us of the necessary information and documentation required to process the request. This generally includes your completed request and/or appropriate Symetra Life administrative form, any required spousal or joint Owner’s consents, your Contract number, Social Security Number or Taxpayer Identification Number, and any other supporting documentation we may require. We may, in our sole discretion, determine whether any particular transaction request is in Good Order, and we reserve the right to change or waive any Good Order requirement at any time.

Signature Guarantees: As a protection against fraud, we require a signature guarantee for the following transaction requests:

• Any withdrawal or surrender over $250,000;

• Ownership changes;

• Any withdrawal when we have been directed to send proceeds payable to someone other than the Owner or to an address different from the one on the Contract (including bank instructions). PLEASE NOTE: This requirement will not apply to requests made in connection with exchanges of one annuity contract for another with the same owner in a tax-free exchange or direct rollover;

• Certain requests in which the address of record has been changed in the past 30 days; or

• Any other transaction where we require one.

We must receive the original signature guarantee and will not accept copies or faxes of the signature guarantee. You may obtain a signature guarantee at most banks, financial institutions or credit unions. A notary public cannot provide a signature guarantee. We may change our requirements listed above or add a signature guarantee requirement if we deem it necessary to help protect against fraud.

7. CHARGES AND EXPENSES

There are charges and other expenses associated with the Contract that reduce the return on your investment in the Contract.

DAILY CHARGES

Each day we make deductions for certain charges. We do this as part of our calculation of the value of Accumulation Units. Daily charges include the mortality and expense risk charge and the Sub-account fund facilitation fee described below.

Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. The mortality and expense risk charge is equal, on an annual basis, to 0.60% of the average daily net assets of each Sub-account. This charge compensates us for the mortality and expense risks we have under all Symetra True Variable Annuity Contracts. Our mortality risk arises primarily from our obligations to make

24

annuity payments for the life of the Annuitant. Our expense risks under the Contracts include the risk that the current charges will not be sufficient in the future to cover the cost of administering the Contract. If the charges under the Contract are not sufficient, then we will bear the loss. If the charges are more than sufficient, we will retain the excess and may use it for any purpose, including additional distribution expenses. The rate of the mortality and expense risk charge will not be increased for the life of the Contract. We may profit from this charge and use it for any purpose, including additional distribution expenses.

Sub-account Fund Facilitation Fee. We currently do not assess a Sub-account fund facilitation fee. However, if we choose to impose this fee, the Sub-account fund facilitation fee may be charged to Owners invested in any Sub-accounts offered under the Contract. We will notify you in writing if we choose to impose this fee and the fee will be applied to all new and existing Contracts. The maximum amount charged would be equal, on an annual basis, to 0.15% of the average daily net assets that you have invested in the impacted Sub-accounts. This charge is deducted daily and is for facilitating the offering of Sub-accounts that invest in certain Portfolios. If you are invested in the impacted Sub-accounts at the time we institute the fee, the applicable Sub-account fund facilitation fee will be assessed against the Contract Value allocated in each impacted Sub-account. We may profit from this charge and use it for any purpose, including additional distribution expenses.

WEALTH TRANSFER BENEFIT CHARGE

If available in your state, you may elect the Wealth Transfer Benefit (“WTB”) rider. If you elect this rider, we may deduct an additional charge on the first Business Day of each Contract Month. The charge is first deducted pro-rata from your Contract Value invested in the Sub-accounts. You may elect this benefit only at the time you purchase your Contract. You can terminate the WTB rider at any time. However, once terminated you cannot re-elect the WTB rider and we will not refund any charges previously paid.

We stop deducting this charge on the earlier of the first Business Day of the Contract Month anniversary on or after the Business Day:

• we are notified of your death;

• you request to cancel the rider;

• you surrender the Contract;

• you assign the Contract;

• you add or replace an Owner;

• you replace or add an Annuitant;

• you annuitize the entire Contract Value; or

• the oldest Owner, or in the case of non-natural Owners, the oldest Annuitant, attains age 96.

We will refund any rider charges deducted after the first Business Day following your date of death.

The WTB rider charge is based upon an annual rate for the Owner’s or, in the case of a non-natural Owner, the Annuitant’s attained age and sex, if permitted by law. We determine the charge by first determining the rate applicable to the Owner as of the first Business Day of each Contract Month. Each Contract Month we use a Table of Current Rates to determine the rate applicable to you. If the Contract is owned by joint Owners, we will use the Table of Current Rates for Joint Lives and use the attained age of the oldest joint Owner. Your rate will never be higher than the guaranteed rate shown in your Contract. Because the annual rate is based on attained age, every year the rate applicable to you will increase. Appendix E of this prospectus contains the Table of Current Rates we use for this purpose.

Once the rate is determined, it is multiplied by the greater of:

• your WTB Additional Benefit; and

• zero.

It is then divided by 12. If the WTB Additional Benefit is greater than zero, we will assess a charge for that Contract Month. If the WTB Additional Benefit is less than zero, no charge will be assessed. Each Contract Month, your charge will be recalculated using these factors. The charge is for the cost and risk associated with offering the WTB rider.

WTB Charge Example #1: Assume you are a 60-year old male with Purchase Payments totaling $100,000, no withdrawals have been made from your Contract and your Contract Value is equal to $150,000. On your Contract Month anniversary, we determine that the annual charge rate for a 60-year old male who elects the WTB rider is 0.9522%. We calculate your WTB rider charge for that month as follows:

25

Step 1	We first determine your WTB Gain by taking your Contract Value and subtracting the sum of all your Purchase Payments reduced for withdrawals that exceed the WTB Earnings. ($150,000 – ($100,000 - $0)) = $50,000	Step 2	We then take this amount and multiply it by 50% and add your Contract Value to get your WTB Benefit Base. ($50,000 x 50%) + $150,000 = $175,000
Step 3	We then take the WTB Benefit Base and subtract your Contract Value. ($175,000 – $150,000) = $25,000 This is your WTB Additional Benefit and in this example, it is greater than zero.	Step 4	Because it is greater than zero, we take this amount and multiply it by the annual WTB rider charge rate of 0.9522% and divide it by 12 months. The result is the amount of your WTB rider charge. $25,000 x 0.9522%/ 12 = $19.84

WTB Charge Example #2: Assume the same facts as above except that you are one year older. For a 61-year old male who elects the WTB rider, we determine that the annual charge rate is 1.0625%. Steps 1, 2 and 3 as shown above would be calculated the same, but in Step 4 we would use the annual charge rate of 1.0625%. The WTB rider charge for that month would be calculated as follows:

Step 4 We take the WTB Additional Benefit of $25,000 and multiply it by the annual WTB rider charge rate of 1.0625% and divide it by 12 months. This is the amount of your WTB rider charge. $25,000 x 1.0625% / 12 = $22.14

Because the WTB rider charge is based on an annual rate for your attained age, as you get older the charge rate will increase. The charge increased from $19.84 in example 1 to $22.14 in example 2 due to the increased age of the assumed Owner.

Before electing this optional benefit, you should consult your financial advisor to help you consider the costs, benefits and risks of the benefit option for your particular circumstances.

WTB Charge Example #3: Assume you are a 60-year old male with Purchase Payments totaling $100,000, no withdrawals have been made but due to poor investment performance your Contract Value is equal to $90,000. On your Contract Month anniversary, we determine that the annual charge rate for a 60-year old male who elects the WTB rider is 0.9522%. We calculate your WTB rider charge for that month as follows:

Step 1	We determine the greater of your WTB Additional Benefit and zero. We first determine your WTB Gain by taking your Contract Value and subtracting the sum of all your Purchase Payments reduced for withdrawals that exceed the WTB Earnings. ($90,000 – ($100,000 - $0)) = -$10,000	Step 2	We then take this amount and multiply it by 50% and add your Contract Value to get your WTB Benefit Base. (-$10,000 x 50%) + $90,000 = $85,000
Step 3	We then take the WTB Benefit Base and subtract your Contract Value. ($85,000 - $90,000) = -$5,000 This is your WTB Additional Benefit and in this example, it is less than zero.
	Because the WTB Additional Benefit is less than zero, we will not assess a WTB rider charge for this Contract Month.

For more information on how the WTB rider works, please see “Section 8 – Death Benefit and Optional Death Benefit Rider.”

TRANSFER CHARGE

You can make 25 free transfers every Contract Year. If your number of transfers exceeds these limits, we will deduct a transfer charge equal to $25 per additional transfer. All transfer activity that occurs on the same Business Day will be counted as a

26

single transfer for purposes of applying any applicable transfer charge. The transfer charge is deducted pro-rata from the Sub-accounts that you transfer your funds from. If you transfer the entire balance from a Sub-account, the transfer charge is deducted from the amount transferred.

If the transfer is part of dollar cost averaging, Sub-account rebalancing, customized transfer instructions, other systematic transfer programs, or Symetra Life approved asset allocation programs, if available; it will not be counted against these transfer limits.

PREMIUM TAXES

States and other governmental entities (e.g., municipalities) may charge premium taxes. These taxes generally range from 0% to 3.5%, depending on the state, and are subject to change. Some states charge for these taxes at the time each Purchase Payment is made. In this case, Purchase Payments, as discussed in this prospectus, may reflect a deduction for the premium tax. Other states charge for these taxes when annuity payments begin. We may make a deduction from your Contract for the payment of the premium taxes assessed in connection with your Contract as stated in your Contract.

INCOME OR OTHER TAXES

Currently we do not pay income or other taxes on earnings attributable to your Contract. However, if we ever incur such taxes, we reserve the right to deduct them from your Contract Value. If we choose to deduct these income or other taxes, we will notify you in writing.

PORTFOLIO EXPENSES

By investing in a Sub-account, you indirectly pay a proportionate share of the expense of the corresponding Portfolio in which the Sub-account invests. Portfolio expenses may include, without limitation, investment management fees, Rule 12b-1 fees, administrative fees, acquired fund fees and Portfolio operating expenses. These expenses are summarized in the fee table of the Portfolio prospectuses. For more detailed information, you should refer to the Portfolio prospectuses which if not accompanying this prospectus, are available upon request.

8. DEATH BENEFIT AND OPTIONAL DEATH BENEFIT RIDER

DEATH BENEFIT

If you die during the Accumulation Phase and the WTB rider is not in effect, your Contract provides you with a death benefit equal to your Contract Value as of the Business Day the death benefit is paid.

Death of Annuitant. If the Annuitant is not an Owner and the Annuitant dies before the Annuity Date, you must designate a new Annuitant. If no designation is made within 30 days after we are notified of the Annuitant’s death, the oldest Owner named on the application will become the Annuitant. If this Contract is owned by a non-natural person (e.g., a corporation or trust), the death of the Annuitant will be treated as the death of an Owner.

OPTIONAL DEATH BENEFIT RIDER: WEALTH TRANSFER BENEFIT

The WTB rider is an optional death benefit rider designed to help offset taxes or other charges incurred by your surviving joint Owner or Beneficiary and is available under the Contract for an additional charge. The WTB rider may provide a WTB Additional Benefit upon the death of the Owner, or in the case of a non-natural Owner, the death of the Annuitant. If a Contract is owned by joint Owners, the benefit will become payable upon the first death of either Owner. If a Contract is owned by a non-natural person and there are joint Annuitants, the benefit will become payable upon the first death of either Annuitant. The amount of the WTB Additional Benefit is subject to the maximum limits discussed below under “Limitation on WTB Amounts”.

If you are younger than age 76 on the Contract Date and the rider is available in your state, you may elect the WTB rider at the time you purchase your Contract. You cannot elect the rider after the Contract Date. Once you elect the WTB rider, you can cancel it at any time. However, once canceled you may not re-elect it and we will not refund any charges previously assessed.

There are several important points to consider before purchasing the WTB rider:

• The rider will terminate if you assign the Contract or add or replace an Owner to the Contract. Therefore, if you intend to make any ownership changes to your Contract, you should carefully consider whether the WTB rider is appropriate for you.

• If the rider is attached to a Contract owned by joint Owners, the joint Owners must be spouses.

• If the rider is attached to a Contract owned by a non-natural person and there are joint Annuitants, the joint Annuitants must be spouses.

27

• If the rider is attached to a Contract owned by a natural person, the Annuitant(s) must be the Owner(s) for the WTB rider to remain in effect. Therefore, if you intend to make any Annuitant changes to your Contract, you should carefully consider whether the WTB rider is appropriate for you.

• Positive investment performance of the Sub-accounts in which you invest will cause an increase in the WTB rider charge.

• As you age, the annual rate used to calculate your WTB rider charge will increase and could cause the WTB rider charge applicable to you to also increase. This increase could be significant.

• If your WTB Additional Benefit is equal to or less than zero as of your date of death, we will not add an amount to your death benefit. Thus, you may have paid for a benefit that your Beneficiary or surviving spouse never receives. We will not refund the assessed charges if a benefit is not paid under the WTB rider.

• Withdrawals will reduce the WTB Additional Benefit and may significantly reduce or eliminate the value of the WTB rider.

WTB Additional Benefit Calculation: The WTB Additional Benefit is the amount we will add to your Contract Value under this rider. The WTB Additional Benefit will be determined on the first Business Day of each Contract Month and will remain unchanged for that Contract Month. Rider charges will be calculated using the WTB Additional Benefit. For more information, see “Section 7-Charges and Expenses.”

Your WTB Additional Benefit is used solely to calculate the WTB and does not provide a Contract Value or any minimum Contract Value and cannot be withdrawn.

In order to calculate the WTB Additional Benefit, we must first determine the WTB Threshold, WTB Gain and WTB Benefit Base. To calculate your WTB Threshold, we take the sum of your Purchase Payments and reduce it for withdrawals that exceed the WTB Earnings. For the WTB Gain, we take your Contract Value and subtract the WTB Threshold. For purposes of the WTB Gain calculation, the Contract Value used is equal to:

• the covered Purchase Payment amount (as described in “Limitations on WTB Amounts”); divided by

• the total Purchase Payments, adjusted by prior withdrawals of Purchase Payments; multiplied by

• the total Contract Value.

We then determine your WTB Benefit Base by taking 50% of the WTB Gain and adding that to your total Contract Value. The WTB Additional Benefit is equal to your WTB Benefit Base minus your Contract Value.

Example 1: Assume that on the first Business Day of a Contract Month your total Purchase Payments equal $70,000 and that due to investment performance your Contract Value is equal to $75,000. Assume that there have been no withdrawals made during the life of the Contract. We would determine the WTB Additional Benefit as follows:

Step 1: Determine the WTB Threshold Sum of your Purchase Payments reduced for withdrawals that exceed the WTB Earnings ($70,000 – $0)	=	$70,000
Step 2: Determine the WTB Gain Contract Value minus the WTB Threshold. ($75,000 – $70,000)	=	$5,000
Step 3: Determine the WTB Benefit Base Contract Value plus 50% of WTB Gain ($75,000 + (0.50 x $5,000)	=	$77,500
Step 4: Determine the WTB Additional Benefit WTB Benefit Base minus Contract Value ($77,500 minus $75,000)	=	$2,500

Your WTB Additional Benefit for this Contract Month will be equal to $2,500. If you die during this month, we would add $2,500 to your Contract Value under the WTB rider.

Example 2: Assume that on the first Business Day of a Contract Month your total Purchase Payments equal $70,000 but due to investment performance your Contract Value is equal to $65,000. Assume that there have been no withdrawals made during the life of the Contract. We would determine the WTB Additional Benefit as follows:

28

Step 1: Determine the WTB Threshold Sum of your Purchase Payments reduced for withdrawals that exceed the WTB Earnings. ($70,000 – $0)	=	$70,000
Step 2: Determine the WTB Gain Contract Value minus the WTB Threshold. ($65,000 – $70,000)	=	-$5,000

Negative investment performance has caused your Contract Value to decrease below the WTB Threshold resulting in no WTB Gain. This will cause your WTB Additional Benefit to be less than zero for this Contract Month. If you die during this month, we would not add a WTB Additional Benefit to your Contract Value under the WTB rider.

Impact of Withdrawals on the WTB Additional Benefit. Withdrawals will have an impact on the WTB Additional Benefit calculation. Withdrawals are first taken from the WTB Earnings, as calculated on the Business Day of the withdrawal, on a dollar for dollar basis. Each withdrawal (or portion of such withdrawal) in excess of the WTB Earnings will reduce the WTB Threshold, as calculated on the Business Day of the withdrawal, on a dollar for dollar basis.

Example 3: Assume the same facts from Example 1, that you have WTB Earnings in the amount of $5,000 and a WTB Additional Benefit of $2,500, except assume you make a withdrawal in the amount of $7,000 before the end of the same Business Day. We would first determine the impact of the withdrawals on the WTB Earnings and the WTB Threshold.

Step 1: Determine the impact of the withdrawal to the WTB Earnings We first compare the withdrawal amount to the WTB Earnings to determine how much of the withdrawal will be taken from the WTB Earnings. Because the withdrawal amount of $7,000 exceeds the WTB Earnings of $5,000, the WTB Earnings will be withdrawn first and any remaining amount will be taken from the WTB Threshold.	$7,000	≥ $5,000
Step 2: Determine the impact of the withdrawal to the WTB Threshold Withdrawal amount minus WTB Earnings ($7,000 - $5,000) Because the withdrawal amount of $7,000 is greater than the WTB Earnings of $5,000, the withdrawal will impact the WTB Threshold. The first $5,000 of the withdrawal amount will come from the WTB Earnings and the remaining $2,000 will come from the WTB Threshold.	=	$2,000
Step 3: Determine the WTB Threshold The sum of your Purchase Payments reduced for withdrawals that exceed the WTB Earnings ($70,000 - $2,000)	=	$68,000
Step 4: Determine the WTB Gain after the withdrawal Contract Value minus the WTB Threshold ($68,000 - $68,000)	=	$0
Step 5: Determine the WTB Benefit Base Contract Value plus 50% of WTB Gain ($68,000 + (0.50 x$0))	=	$68,000
Step 6: Determine the WTB Additional Benefit WTB Benefit Base minus Contract Value ($68,000 - $68,000) Due to the withdrawal, the WTB Additional Benefit for this month is $0 compared to $2,500 in Example 1. The withdrawal reduced the WTB Additional Benefit to zero on the first Business Day of the Contract Month. If you die during this month, no WTB Additional Benefit would be added to your Contract Value.	=	$0

WTB Rider Calculation: If your WTB Additional Benefit was greater than zero on the first Business Day of the Contract Month of your date of death, we will add an additional amount to your Contract Value. After due proof of death is received in

29

Good Order, the WTB Additional Benefit will be allocated to the money market Sub-account available under the Contract, unless your Beneficiary or surviving spouse tells us otherwise. The death benefit, plus any applicable WTB Additional Benefit, will be paid as described below under “Payment of Death Benefit.” If your WTB Additional Benefit is equal to or less than zero on the first Business Day of the Contract Month of your date of death, no WTB Additional Benefit will be added to your Contract Value.

The amount of the death benefit paid under the WTB rider will be equal to:

• any positive WTB Additional Benefit in effect on your date of death; plus

• your Contract Value as of the date we make a death benefit payment; plus

• any refunded rider charges deducted after the first Business Day following your date of death; plus

• any interest required by law.

Any payments made under the WTB rider are subject to our financial strength and claims paying ability.

WTB Rider Termination. The WTB rider will terminate on the earliest Business Day when:

• you request to cancel the rider;

• you surrender the Contract;

• the Owner or oldest joint Owner (or in the case of a non-natural Owner, the Annuitant or oldest joint Annuitant) reaches attained age 96;

• you assign the Contract;

• you add or replace an Owner;

• you add or replace an Annuitant;

• a death benefit is paid under the Contract, unless your spouse chooses to continue the rider; or

• you annuitize the entire Contract Value.

Once the WTB rider is terminated, it cannot be re-elected. Therefore, you should carefully consider making changes to the Contract.

Limitation On WTB Amounts. We limit the amounts we will pay under the WTB rider. These limits are:

Maximum WTB Additional Benefit. The maximum WTB Additional Benefit paid under the WTB rider will never be more than five times your WTB Threshold subject to a maximum of $5 million dollars.

WTB Threshold Cap. The maximum WTB Threshold we will use to calculate your WTB Gain will equal $1 million dollars. For purposes of applying this WTB Threshold Cap, we divide your Purchase Payments into covered and uncovered portions where your covered portion equals the WTB Threshold (up to the WTB Threshold Cap) and the uncovered portion equals any remaining Purchase Payments. We calculate the covered portion as well as any uncovered portion after each Purchase Payment is added to and each withdrawal is taken from your Contract Value.

Impact of Purchase Payments on WTB Threshold Cap. Purchase Payments will increase your WTB Threshold. If your WTB Threshold exceeds the WTB Threshold Cap, your covered portion of your total Purchase Payments will initially be equal to the $1 million dollar maximum and the uncovered portion will be equal to the remaining amount of total Purchase Payments.

Impact of Withdrawals on WTB Threshold Cap. Withdrawals are deducted first from WTB Earnings and then from WTB Threshold. If the withdrawal amount exceeds the WTB Earnings in your Contract, the remaining withdrawal amount will be taken from WTB Threshold and proportionally reduce your covered and uncovered portions of Purchase Payments. “WTB Earnings” as defined in this rider may not be defined as “earnings” for income tax purposes.

Covered and Uncovered Contract Value. In the same way your Purchase Payments are divided into covered and uncovered portions, your Contract Value will also be divided into covered and uncovered portions. The ratio of your covered Contract Value to your uncovered Contract Value will be the same as the ratio of your covered Purchase Payments to your uncovered Purchase Payments.

All Symetra True Variable Annuity Contracts purchased by you will be aggregated for these limits.

Please see the example under Appendix D regarding the WTB rider, including information regarding the application of the limits on the amounts we will pay under the WTB rider.

PAYMENT OF DEATH BENEFIT

We will pay the death benefit upon receipt of due proof of death in Good Order at our Contract Maintenance Office. The Contract Value will be subject to investment performance and applicable charges until the date the death benefit is paid.

Due proof of death can be met only if we receive in Good Order: a certified death certificate, or similar document acceptable to us; written direction regarding how to pay the death benefit by at least one Beneficiary; and all representations we require or which are mandated by applicable law or regulation in relation to payment of the death benefits.

For natural Owners, the death benefit is payable to the following:

• surviving Owner; or if none, then

• surviving primary Beneficiaries; or if none, then

• surviving contingent Beneficiaries; or if none, then

• estate of the last Owner to die.

For Contracts owned by non-natural Owners, the death benefit is payable to the following:

• surviving primary Beneficiaries; or if none, then

• surviving contingent Beneficiaries; or if none, then

• the Owner.

If the Beneficiary or surviving Owner chooses to leave money invested in the Contract rather than taking it in a lump sum, then, thereafter, the Contract Value will be subject to investment performance and applicable Contract charges until the date the entire death benefit is paid out.

Payment Options. Under a non-qualified Contract, the death benefit may be paid as:

1.	a lump sum payment or series of withdrawals that are completed within five years from the date of death; or
2.	annuity payments made over the Beneficiary's life or life expectancy. To receive annuity payments, the Beneficiary must make this election within 60 days from our receipt of due proof of death. Annuity payments must begin within one year from the date of death. Once annuity payments begin they cannot be changed.

Different death benefit elections may be available under qualified Contracts. See “Section 9 – Taxes” for more information.

If your Beneficiary chooses a lump sum, then we value the death benefit as of the end of the next Business Day after we receive the Beneficiary’s election in Good Order and pay it within 7 days. If your Beneficiary chooses to make a series of withdrawals over time as provided in option 1 above, then your Beneficiary will pay all charges and expenses as described in the “Charges and Expenses” section of this prospectus so long as the death benefit remains invested in the Contract. Your Beneficiary will also be subject to investment performance until the date the entire death benefit is paid out. Different death benefit elections may be available to Beneficiaries.

SPOUSAL CONTINUATION

In some cases, a spouse who is entitled to receive a death benefit may have the option to continue the Contract instead. If you entered into a civil union, same sex partnership, or domestic partnership your rights to continue the Contract may be limited under federal law. See “Section 9 – Taxes” for more information. Only one spousal continuation is permitted per Contract.

If your spouse chooses to continue the Contract and the WTB rider was in effect on the Owner’s date of death, the Contract Value will be increased by any applicable WTB Additional Benefit. Any increase will be added to the Contract Value as of the Business Day due proof of death is received by us in Good Order. Unless you tell us otherwise, the amount will be allocated to the money market Sub-account.

WTB Rider Continuation. If your surviving spouse is younger than age 76 on the date of Contract continuation, your surviving spouse can choose to continue the WTB in effect on the original Contract. This continuation must be elected at the time your surviving spouse elects to continue the Contract. Spousal continuation may be made by submitting the proper Symetra Life administrative form to us in Good Order. If your surviving spouse continues the rider, any future rider calculations will be based on your surviving spouse’s attained age and sex, if allowed under applicable law. Your surviving spouse will start with a new WTB Threshold equal to the Contract Value on the day of continuation after any additional benefit

31

has been added. Subsequent Purchase Payments will increase the WTB Threshold, and any subsequent withdrawals will first reduce the WTB Earnings on a dollar-for-dollar basis and then reduce the WTB Threshold on a dollar-for-dollar basis.

DEATH DURING THE INCOME PHASE

If an Owner dies during the Income Phase, then any amounts paid after the Owner’s death will depend on which annuity option was selected. If an Owner dies while annuity payments are being paid, we will pay the remaining annuity payments, if any, in accordance with that option. If the Annuitant is not an Owner and dies after the Annuity Date, then we will continue paying any remaining annuity payments to the Payee designated by the Owner. The remaining annuity payments will be distributed at least as rapidly as under the annuity option then in effect. See “Section 3 - Annuity Payments (Income Phase)” for more information.

9. TAXES

This section discusses how the federal income tax applies to annuities in general. This information is not complete and is not intended as tax advice. Tax laws and their interpretations are complex and subject to change. We cannot predict the probability that any changes in the interpretation of the laws, or the laws themselves, will occur. No attempt is made to discuss state or other tax laws. Symetra Life does not guarantee the tax treatment of any Contract or any transaction involving a Contract. You bear the complete risk that the Contract may not be treated as an “annuity contract” under federal income tax laws. It should be further understood that the following discussion is not exhaustive and that special rules not described in this prospectus may be applicable in certain situations. You should consult a competent tax advisor about the possibilities of tax law changes and your individual circumstances.

ANNUITY CONTRACTS IN GENERAL

Different tax rules apply to Purchase Payments made to annuity contracts and distributions from annuity contracts depending on how you take money out and whether the annuity contract is a “non-qualified contract” or a “qualified contract”. A “non-qualified contract” is one that is not purchased as part of a formal retirement plan. A “qualified contract” is purchased as part of an individual retirement plan or an employer-sponsored plan. Currently, we offer this Contract as a qualified contract to fund an IRA, Roth IRA, SIMPLE IRA, or SEP IRA. Non-qualified contracts purchased with after-tax money and not part of an IRA, Roth IRA, SIMPLE IRA, SEP IRA, or other retirement plan, receive different tax treatment than qualified Contracts.

NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACTS

Individuals may purchase non-qualified annuity contracts without any Purchase Payment limits imposed under the Code. The Purchase Payments receive no tax benefit but taxes on the increases in the value of the Contract are generally deferred until distribution occurs, either in the form of a lump sum payment, a partial withdrawal, or as annuity payments under the option elected.

Your cost basis equals the total amount of the after-tax Purchase Payments remaining in the Contract. Under the Code, you generally do not pay tax on Contract earnings until received. If the Contract Value exceeds the aggregate Purchase Payments made to the Contract, any amount withdrawn will generally be treated as coming first from earnings (also referred to in the Code as “income on the contract”) and then, only after the income portion is exhausted, as coming from Purchase Payments. Full surrenders are treated as taxable income to the extent the amount received exceeds the investment in the Contract. Withdrawn earnings are includable in gross income and taxed at ordinary income rates. See also the discussion under Medicare Tax below. Under Revenue Ruling 61-201, an ordinary loss deduction may be available upon the full surrender of a contract if the proceeds of the surrender are less than the investment in the Contract. However, the deduction will be subject to the limitation on itemized deductions. You should consult your tax advisor before deducting any loss resulting from the surrender of a non-qualified annuity contract.

Contracts not owned for the benefit of natural persons, e.g., contracts owned by a corporation or certain other entities, are generally not treated as annuities for federal income tax purposes and any earnings are taxed as ordinary income in the current year. Exceptions may apply. For example, contracts held by a trust which holds the annuity contract as an agent for a natural person, contracts held for non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements, contracts held under qualified plans and immediate annuities as defined in the Code can defer tax on earnings until money is withdrawn from the annuity contract. Purchasers who are not natural persons should consult their own tax counsel or other tax advisor before purchasing the Contract.

In addition to ordinary income tax, Section 72(q) of the Code imposes a ten percent (10%) penalty to the income portion of any premature withdrawals from a non-qualified annuity contract. The penalty is not imposed on amounts received: (a) after the taxpayer reaches age 59 ¹/2; (b) after the death of the Owner; (c) if the taxpayer is totally disabled (for this purpose disability is as defined in Section 72(m)(7) of the Code); (d) in a series of substantially equal periodic payments made not less frequently than annually for the life (or life expectancy) of the taxpayer or for the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the taxpayer and

32

his or her beneficiary; or (e) which are allocable to Purchase Payments made prior to August 14, 1982. With respect to (d) above, if the series of substantially equal periodic payments is modified before the later of your attaining age 59 ¹/2 or five years from the date of the first periodic payment, then the tax for the year of the modification is increased by an amount equal to the tax which would have been imposed (the 10% penalty tax) but for the exception, plus interest for the tax years in which the exception was used. There may be other exceptions to the 10% tax penalty and additional conditions to the 10% penalty exceptions described above. Before you make a withdrawal from a non-qualified contract, you should consult your tax advisor to determine the tax treatment of the withdrawal and whether the 10% penalty tax will apply.

DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS

Non-qualified variable annuity contracts are treated as annuities for tax purposes and receive tax deferral as long as the Sub-accounts meet diversification standards set by the Code and applicable regulations. This favorable tax treatment allows you to select and make transfers among Sub-accounts without paying income tax until you take money out.

The diversification standards generally require each Portfolio to meet certain investment tests so that the concentration of the Portfolio’s underlying investments does not exceed certain percentages. The diversification requirements do not apply to IRA annuities or annuities issued to other qualified plans. If a Sub-account failed to comply with these diversification requirements, a non-qualified Contract would not be treated as an annuity for federal income tax purposes and the Owner would be currently taxed on the excess of the Contract Value over the investment in the Contract. We intend that the Portfolios of the corresponding Sub-accounts offered under the Contract be managed to comply with existing diversification standards. However, you bear the risk that the non-qualified Contract could be disqualified as an annuity due to the failure of a Portfolio or Sub-account to be deemed to be adequately diversified.

OWNER CONTROL

The diversification regulations do not provide guidance regarding the circumstances in which owner control of the investments of the Separate Account will cause a variable contract owner to be treated as the owner of the assets of the Separate Account. In certain circumstances, a variable contract owner may be considered to be the owner of the assets of a segregated asset account (also referred to as a “Sub-account”) if the IRS deems the owner to possess “ownership” in those assets, such as the ability to exercise investment control over the assets. If the contract owner is deemed to have “investor control” over the underlying Portfolios, then the contract owner could be taxed currently on income and gains under the Contract.

The application of the investor control doctrine is subject to some uncertainty. In Revenue Ruling 2003-91 (the “Revenue Ruling”), the IRS provided guidance concerning the circumstances in which investor control of the investments of a segregated asset account may cause the investor to be treated as the owner of the assets in the account (which would result in the current taxation of the income on those assets to the Owner). The Revenue Ruling states that the determination of whether the owner of a variable contract is to be treated as the owner of the assets held by the insurance company under the contract will depend on all of the facts and circumstances. In the Revenue Ruling the IRS provided that if the number of underlying sub-accounts does not exceed 20, then the number of sub-accounts alone would not cause the contract owner to have investment control of the sub-account assets. The IRS also indicated that exceeding 20 investment options may be a factor, along with other factors, when determining whether a variable contract owner has investor control over the underlying contract assets. The Revenue Ruling did not indicate the number of investment options, or sub-accounts, if any, that would cause the contract owner to have investor control over the sub-account assets.

We believe that the design of the Contract and the relationship between our Contract and the Portfolios is such that the investor control doctrine should not apply. We also do not believe that the ownership rights of an Owner under a Contract (e.g. the right to allocate money into a number of Sub-accounts) would result in any Owner being treated as the owner of the assets of the Contract under the Revenue Ruling. However, we do not know whether additional guidance will be provided by the IRS on this issue and what standards may be contained in such guidance. In the event any forthcoming guidance or ruling is considered to set forth a new position, such guidance or ruling will generally be applied only prospectively. However, if such ruling or guidance was not considered to set forth a new position, it may be applied retroactively resulting in the Owner being retroactively determined to be the owner of the assets of the sub-account. Due to the uncertainty in this area, we reserve the right to modify the Contract in an attempt to maintain favorable tax treatment. However, there is no assurance that such modifications would be successful.

DISTRIBUTIONS AT DEATH

In order to be treated as an annuity contract for tax purposes, a non-qualified contract must provide that:

1. If the Owner dies before annuity payments begin, the entire interest in the Contract must be distributed within five years after the date of the Owner’s death. If payable to a designated beneficiary, the distributions must be paid over the life or life expectancy of that designated beneficiary, so long as the payouts begin within one year of the Owner’s death. If the sole designated beneficiary is the spouse of the Owner, the Contract may be continued in the name of the

33

spouse as Owner; or

2. If the Owner dies on or after annuity payments begin, the remainder of any interest in the Contract must be distributed at least as rapidly as that provided for in the method in effect on the date of death.

If the Owner is not a natural person, then for purposes of these distribution rules, the Annuitant is considered the Owner. In addition, when the Owner is not a natural person, a change in the Annuitant is treated as the death of the Owner.

ANNUITY DATE

We will deny our consent to a later Annuity Date based upon any current or future legal restrictions imposed by state laws and regulations, by regulatory authorities or by the Code and the IRS. For non-qualified Contracts, if the Contract’s Income Phase occurs at a time when the Annuitant has reached an advanced age (e.g., past age 95), it is possible that the Contract would not be treated as an annuity for federal income tax purposes. In that event, gains under the Contract could be currently includable in your income. The IRS has not provided guidance with respect to a maximum date on which annuity payments must start. In the event that any future rulings, regulations, or other pronouncements by the IRS provide us with guidance, we may need to restrict your ability to change to any Annuity Date under a non-qualified Contract which occurs when the Annuitant is at an advanced age (e.g., past age 95).

OPTIONAL BENEFIT RIDER—NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACTS

We do not believe that the fees and charges associated with any optional benefit provided under the Contract should be treated as taxable withdrawals. However, it is possible that the IRS may take the position that the fees and charges deducted for certain optional benefit riders, are deemed to be taxable distributions that are subject to the 10% penalty tax on distributions made before age 59 ¹/2.

In general, any amount actually received under the Contract as a death benefit, including an optional death benefit, will be treated for tax purposes as provided in the “Non-Qualified Contracts” and “Taxation of Annuity Payments” sections.

QUALIFIED CONTRACTS

Contracts purchased as an IRA, Roth IRA, SIMPLE IRA, or SEP IRA are referred to as “qualified contracts” because they are qualified under the Code to provide tax deferral for retirement purposes. You do not have to purchase an annuity contract to qualify for the tax deferral offered by these qualified contracts. There may be other investment vehicles that can be purchased for your retirement plan. However, an annuity contract has features and benefits other than tax deferral that may make it an appropriate investment for your retirement plan. Numerous special tax rules apply to the participants in qualified plans and to annuity contracts used in connection with qualified plans. Therefore, we make no attempt in this prospectus to provide more than general information about use of the Contract with qualified plans. If the Contract is purchased as part of your employer’s retirement plan, we are not responsible for determining if your employer’s plan or arrangement satisfies the requirements of the Code and/or the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). You should consult your tax advisor regarding these features and benefits before you buy a qualified Contract.

Qualified contracts are subject to special rules and limits on Purchase Payments and distributions that vary according to the type of retirement plan. You may be able to make a direct transfer or rollover from other qualified plans and qualified contracts to this qualified Contract. Ineligible or excess contributions to certain qualified contracts can result in substantial penalties and possible loss of the Contract’s or retirement plan’s qualified status. Tax penalties of 10% or more, may apply to certain distributions; for example if you are under age 59 ¹/2 and not disabled as defined by the Code.

IRAs. Individuals may contribute to an individual retirement arrangement known as a traditional IRA (“IRA”). Under applicable limitations, certain amounts may be contributed to an IRA which will be deductible from the individual’s gross income. Under some circumstances, you may be able to make “after-tax” contributions. These IRAs are subject to limitations on eligibility, contributions, transferability and distributions. Traditional IRAs include the SEP IRA and SIMPLE IRA. An employer can establish a SEP IRA or SIMPLE IRA for its employees. Under an employer’s SEP IRA or SIMPLE IRA, contributions for each eligible employee can be made under Contracts issued as an IRA. Under certain conditions, distributions from other IRAs and other retirement plans may be rolled over or transferred on a tax deferred basis into an IRA. Purchasers of IRAs should obtain competent tax advice as to the tax treatment and suitability of such an investment.

Roth IRAs. Under applicable limitations, individuals may also contribute nondeductible contributions to Roth IRAs. These Roth IRAs are also subject to limitations on eligibility, contributions, transferability and distributions. “Qualified distributions” from Roth IRAs are excluded from taxable gross income. “Qualified distributions” are distributions which (a) are made more than five years after the taxable year of the first contribution to a Roth IRA, and (b) meet any of the following conditions: (1) the annuity owner has reached age 59  ¹ / 2 ; (2) the distribution is paid to a Beneficiary after the Owner’s death; (3) the annuity Owner is disabled; or (4) the distribution will be used for first time home purchase. (Qualified distributions for first

34

time home purchases may not exceed $10,000.) Non-qualified distributions are includable in taxable gross income only to the extent that they exceed the contributions made to the Roth IRA. The taxable portion of a non-qualified distribution may be subject to the 10% penalty tax.

You may convert a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA. You will be required to include the taxable portion of the conversion in your taxable gross income, but you will not be required to pay the 10% penalty tax. However, a 10% penalty tax may apply to a conversion from an IRA if distributions occur during the five taxable years beginning with the year in which the conversion was made. You should consult a tax advisor before converting an IRA to a Roth IRA.

If your Contract is issued as an IRA or Roth IRA, then we will issue the Contract with language intended to qualify the Contract for tax purposes as an IRA or Roth IRA. We will also provide the necessary administrative procedures to administer the IRAs and Roth IRAs in accordance with IRS requirements governing the sponsors of IRAs and Roth IRAs subject to the accuracy and completeness of the information you provide us. However, you are cautioned that the rights of any person to benefits under a retirement plan may be subject to the terms and conditions of the plan, regardless of the terms and conditions of the Contract. In addition, we will not be bound by the terms and conditions of a retirement plan to the extent such terms and conditions contradict the Contract, unless we consent.

For SEP IRAs and SIMPLE IRAs, certain IRS requirements and administrative procedures will be provided by your employer, and your Contract may be subject to the terms of the SEP IRA or SIMPLE IRA plan. Contracts issued in connection with SEP IRAs and SIMPLE IRAs may include special provisions that may restrict or modify the Contract provisions and administrative services in this prospectus. Where required, Contracts sold in connection with SEP or SIMPLE plans will utilize annuity purchase rate tables which do not differentiate on the basis of sex.

Limits on Annual Contributions. Under federal tax law, IRAs and Roth IRAs both limit the amount of annual contributions an individual can contribute to his or her IRA or Roth IRA. The IRA and Roth IRA annual contribution limit for 2014 is the smaller of your taxable compensation or $5,500. This amount is lower than the minimum Purchase Payment of $25,000 that we accept. Therefore, you may only contribute an initial Purchase Payment that is a rollover contribution of $25,000 or more from other eligible retirement plans. Generally, rollovers and direct transfers will not be subject to annual contribution limits. IRA Owners age 50 or older may be able to make additional “catch-up” contributions each year. If contributions are being made under a SEP or SIMPLE IRA, additional amounts may be contributed as permitted by the Code and the terms of the employer’s plan. A rollover from or conversion of an IRA to a Roth IRA is generally subject to tax.

Required Minimum Distributions. Generally, qualified contracts (except for Roth IRAs) are subject to lifetime required minimum distributions. For IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, and SEP IRAs, you must begin receiving required minimum distributions by April 1 of the year following the year in which you reach age 70 ¹/2. There is a 50% penalty tax on the shortfall if you fail to take required minimum distributions.

The required minimum distribution rules require that the entire interest in the Contract generally must be distributed not later than the required beginning date or distributed, beginning not later than the required beginning date over the life or life expectancy of the Owner, or the joint lives or joint life expectancy of the Owner and his or her designated beneficiary. These requirements do not apply to a Roth IRA during the Owner’s life. Required minimum distributions from all the IRAs you own may be taken in the form of withdrawals from (1) the IRA Contract Value prior to the Contract’s Annuity Date, or (2) from one or more of the other IRAs, Roth IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, or SEP IRAs that you own, to the extent permitted under federal tax law.

Generally, if the Owner dies before required minimum distributions have begun, the entire interest of the Owner must be distributed by December 31^st of the year that is the fifth anniversary of the Owner’s death or over the life or life expectancy of the designated Beneficiary if such distributions begin no later than December 31^st of the year after the date of the Owner’s death. If your spouse is your Beneficiary and your Contract permits, your spouse may delay the start of required minimum distributions until December 31^st of the year in which you would have reached age 70 ¹/2. The spouse Beneficiary of an IRA may elect to roll over the death proceeds into his or her own IRA (or a Roth IRA and pay the taxable portion of the death proceeds) and treat the IRA (or Roth IRA) as his or her own. Non-spouse Beneficiaries may also be able to roll over death proceeds to an inherited IRA. If you die after required minimum distributions have begun, payments of your entire remaining interest must be made in a manner and over a period as provided under the Code. Roth IRAs are not subject to the required minimum distributions rule while the Owner is alive. Distributions from a Roth IRA may be deferred until the death of the Owner.

Under final regulations issued by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), the actuarial present value of “other benefits” provided under annuity contracts are included for purposes of calculating required minimum distributions. These other benefits include the value of any death benefits, such as the WTB rider, provided under your Contract. These benefits will be considered in calculating required minimum distributions and do impact the amount of your required minimum distribution.

35

The taxation of the additional benefits provided by the rider offered in this Contract is complex. The IRS may disagree with the tax treatment generally described here, or the IRS may issue additional guidance regarding the taxation of these types of rider. Such IRS actions may result in adverse tax consequences for you or additional tax liability. You should consult your tax advisor prior to selecting any optional benefit rider under the Contract.

Tax Treatment of Withdrawals. To the extent Purchase Payments have a zero cost basis (were made with pre-tax dollars), withdrawals will be taxed as ordinary income. In some cases, you must satisfy retirement plan or Code requirements before you take money out.

In addition to ordinary income tax, Section 72(t) of the Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distributions from certain qualified contracts. To the extent amounts are not includable in gross income because they have been rolled over to an IRA or to another eligible plan; no tax penalty will be imposed. The following is a list of some of the distributions to which the tax penalty will not apply: (a) distributions made on after the date on which the Owner reaches ages 59 ¹/2; (b) distributions following the death or disability of the Owner as defined by the Code; (c) distributions made after separation from service after attainment of age 55; (d) distributions that are part of substantially equal periodic payments made not less frequently than annually for the life (or life expectancy) of the Owner or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of such Owner and his or her beneficiary; (e) distributions made to the Owner to the extent such distributions do not exceed the amount allowable as a deduction under Section 213 of the Code to the Owner for amounts paid during the taxable year for medical care; (f) distributions made to pay health insurance premiums for an unemployed Owner; (g) distributions made to pay qualified higher education expenses; (h) distributions made to an Owner for first time home purchases; (i) distributions due to an IRS levy; (j) “qualified reservist distributions”, as defined by the Code; and (k) distributions to qualified public safety employees from a governmental defined benefit plan after attaining age 50 and separating from service. The exception stated in (c) above does not apply to an IRA and Roth IRA. There may be other exceptions to the 10% tax penalty and additional conditions to the 10% penalty exceptions described above. Before you make a withdrawal, you should consult your tax advisor to determine the tax treatment of the withdrawal and whether the 10% penalty tax will apply.

WITHDRAWALS FOR INVESTMENT ADVISOR FEES

Withdrawals from non-qualified Contracts for the payment of investment advisor fees will be considered taxable distributions from the Contract by the IRS. The IRS has also held, however, that the payment of investment advisor fees from certain tax-qualified contracts need not be considered a distribution for income tax purposes if certain requirements are met. You should consult a competent tax advisor for details if you want to pay your investment adviser by withdrawing funds from this Contract.

TAXATION OF ANNUITY PAYMENTS

Although tax consequences may vary depending on the payout option elected under an annuity contract, a portion of each annuity payment (or “amount received as an annuity”) is generally not taxed and the remainder is taxed as ordinary income. The non-taxable portion of an annuity payment is generally determined using an exclusion ratio in a manner that is designed to allow you to recover your after-tax investment in the Contract. The exclusion amount for annuity payments based on a fixed annuity is determined by multiplying the payment by the ratio that the cost basis of the contract (adjusted for any period certain) bears to the expected return under the Contract. For qualified Contracts, the after-tax investment may be zero. The exclusion ratio is determined when annuity payments start. It is applied to each annuity payment over the expected stream of annuity payments, so that each annuity payment is taxable in part and tax-free in part. Once your investment in the Contract has been fully recovered, however, the full amount of each annuity payment is subject to tax as ordinary income. If the annuity payments stop as a result of the Annuitant’s death before full recovery of the investment in the Contract, you should consult a competent tax adviser to determine whether the unrecovered investment in the Contract is deductible. Owners, Payees and Beneficiaries under the contracts should seek competent financial advice about the tax consequences of any distributions.

As mentioned above, distributions prior to age 59 ¹/2 are subject to a 10% penalty tax, subject to certain exceptions. One exception is for distributions that are part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (made not less frequently than annually) for the life (or life expectancy) of the taxpayer or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the taxpayer and his or her designated beneficiary. Another is the “immediate annuity” exception, for annuity payments made pursuant to a partial or complete annuitization of your non-qualified Contract. Whether annuity payments made prior to age 59 ¹/2 satisfy either of these exceptions will depend on the manner in which such payments are made under the facts and circumstances of each case.

PARTIAL ANNUITIZATION

Under a new tax provision enacted in 2010, if part of an annuity contract value is applied to an annuity option that provides payments for one or more lives and for a period of at least ten years, those payments may be taxed as annuity payments instead of withdrawals. In order to get annuity payment tax treatment for the portion of the Contract applied to the annuity payment, payments must be made at least annually in substantially equal amounts, the payments must be designed to amortize the amount applied over life or the period certain, and the payments cannot be stopped except by death or surrender (if permitted

36

under the Contract). You should consult a competent tax advisor before deciding to annuitize all or a portion of your Contract Value.

DEATH BENEFITS

Any death benefits paid under the Contract are generally taxable to the Beneficiary. The rules governing taxation of payments from an annuity Contract, as discussed above, generally apply to the payment of death benefits and depend on whether the death benefits are paid as a lump sum or as annuity payments. Estate or gift taxes may also apply.

EFFECT OF CIVIL UNIONS AND DOMESTIC PARTNERSHIPS

For non-qualified and qualified annuities, there may be certain distribution options or elections available under federal tax law to beneficiaries who are “spouses” as defined under federal tax law. For federal tax law purposes, a “spouse” is a person recognized as a “spouse” in the state where the couple was legally married. The term does not include a party to a registered domestic partnership, civil union, or similar formal relationship recognized under state law that is not denominated a marriage under that state’s law. Accordingly, these same options are not be available to surviving beneficiaries who are “civil union partners”, “domestic partners” or other similar relationships as recognized under the laws of certain states. The administration of spousal rights and the related tax reporting for the Contract will be done in a manner consistent with federal tax law requirements. The rights and benefits of civil union, domestic partnerships and other similar relationships under federal law are evolving and complex. Therefore, you should contact your legal advisor to discuss the availability of options and elections available to your surviving partner.

EXCHANGES

From time to time we may offer programs under which certain variable annuity contracts previously issued by us may be exchanged for the Contracts offered by this prospectus. These programs will be made available on terms and conditions determined by us, and any such programs will comply with applicable law. We believe the exchanges will be tax free for federal income tax purposes; however, you should consult your tax advisor. Generally you can exchange one non-qualified Contract for another in a tax-free exchange under Section 1035 of the Code. In addition, if your Contract is a qualified Contract, then it will generally qualify as a tax free rollover or transfer. However, only one rollover is permitted during any one-year period.

If you exchange part of an existing contract for this Contract, and within 180 days of the exchange you receive a payment (e.g., you make a withdrawal) from either contract, the exchange may not be treated as a tax-free exchange. Rather, the exchange may be treated as if you had made a taxable withdrawal from the existing contract and then purchased this Contract. Subject to certain exceptions, some or all of the amount exchanged into this Contract could be includible in your income and subject to the 10% tax described in the “Non-Qualified Contracts” section of this prospectus.

If you are considering a partial exchange of an annuity contract, you should consider the conditions described by Revenue Procedure 2011-38, effective for transfers that are completed on or after October 24, 2011. Under Rev. Proc. 2011-38: (1) the period of time after which cash can be withdrawn from either contract is 180 days beginning on the date of the transfer and (2) annuity payments that satisfy the newly enacted partial annuitization rule under Section 72(a)(2) of the Code will not be treated as a distribution from either the old or new contract.

In a recently issued private letter ruling, the IRS allowed the beneficiary of a series of several fixed and variable non-qualified inherited annuities to complete an exchange under Section 1035 of the Code of those contracts into a new variable annuity so long as the technical requirements for the exchange under Section 1035 of the Code were honored, and the beneficiary committed to taking post-death distributions from the new annuity at least as rapidly as were occurring under the old contract. While a private letter ruling gives an insight into the IRS’ view, legally it only applies to the taxpayer who requested the ruling. A beneficiary contemplating an exchange under Section 1035 of the Code of an inherited annuity contract should consult with their tax advisor.

Before making an exchange, you should compare both Contracts carefully. You may have to pay a surrender charge on your existing annuity contract; other charges may be higher (or lower) and the benefits may be different. You should not exchange another variable annuity contract for this one unless you determine that, after knowing all the facts, the exchange is in your best interest. Also, you should consult your tax advisor in connection with an exchange involving the Contract, especially if you anticipate making a withdrawal from either Contract.

A transfer or assignment of ownership of a Contract, the designation of an Annuitant, the selection of certain Annuity Dates, or the exchange of a Contract may result in certain tax consequences to you that are not discussed here. An Owner contemplating any such transfer, assignment or exchange should consult with their tax advisor.

37

MULTIPLE CONTRACTS

All deferred non-qualified annuity Contracts that are issued by Symetra Life (or any affiliate) to the same Owner during any calendar year will be treated as one annuity contract for purposes of determining the taxable amount. As a result, withdrawals from any such contracts will be taxed based upon the income in all of the contracts aggregated in the same calendar year. Such treatment may result in adverse tax consequences including more rapid taxation of the distributed amounts from such multiple contracts. For purposes of the aggregation rule, contracts received in a 1035 exchange will be considered issued in the year of the exchange. Also, all traditional IRAs you own will be treated as one IRA for tax purposes. You should consult a tax advisor prior to purchasing more than one annuity contract in any calendar year or owning more than one IRA.

TAX WITHHOLDING

Generally, federal income tax is withheld from the taxable portion of withdrawals at a rate of 10%. Withholding on periodic payments as defined by the Code is at the same rate as wages. Typically, you may elect not to have income taxes withheld or to have withholding done at a different rate. Certain distributions, however, from qualified retirement plans may be subject to a mandatory 20% withholding. Special withholding rules apply to United States citizens residing outside the United States and to non-resident aliens.

FEDERAL ESTATE TAXES

While no attempt is being made to discuss the federal estate tax implications of the Contract, a purchaser should keep in mind that the value of an annuity contract owned by a decedent and payable to a beneficiary by virtue of surviving the decedent is included in the decedent’s gross estate. Depending on the terms of the annuity contract, the value of the annuity included in the gross estate may be the value of the lump sum payment payable to the designated beneficiary or the actuarial value of the payments to be received by the beneficiary. Consult an estate planning advisor for more information.

GENERATION-SKIPPING TRANSFER TAX

Under certain circumstances, the Code may impose a “generation skipping transfer tax” when all or part of an annuity contract is transferred to, or a death benefit is paid to, an individual two or more generations younger than the Owner. Regulations issued under the Code may require us to deduct the tax from your Contract, or from any applicable payment, and pay it directly to the IRS.

AMERICAN TAXPAYER RELIEF ACT OF 2012

The American Taxpayer Relief Act: (1) permanently provides for a maximum federal estate tax rate, gift tax rate and generation skipping transfer tax rate of 40% with an inflation-adjusted $5 million lifetime unified estate and gift tax exclusion and a $5 million generation skipping transfer exclusion; (2) makes permanent “portability” between spouses which allows the estate of a decedent who is survived by a spouse to permit the surviving spouse to use the decedent’s unused $5 million lifetime exclusion; and (3) extends a number of generation skipping transfer provisions.

MEDICARE TAX

Beginning in 2013, distributions from non-qualified annuity contracts will be considered “investment income” for purposes of the newly enacted 3.8% Medicare tax on investment income. Thus, in certain circumstances, a tax will be applied to some or all of the taxable portion of distributions (e.g. earnings) to individuals whose income exceeds certain threshold amounts. Please consult a tax advisor for more information.

ANNUITY PURCHASES BY NONRESIDENT ALIENS AND FOREIGN CORPORATIONS

The discussion above provides general information regarding U.S. federal income tax consequences to annuity purchasers that are U.S. citizens or residents. If you are not a U.S. citizen or resident, you will generally be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax on taxable distributions from annuity contracts at a 30% rate, unless a lower treaty rate applies. In addition, you may be subject to state and/or municipal taxes and taxes that may be imposed by your country of citizenship or residence. You should consult with a qualified tax advisor regarding U.S., state, and foreign taxation with respect to purchasing the Contract.

FOREIGN TAX CREDITS

We may benefit from any foreign tax credits attributable to taxes paid by certain Portfolios to foreign jurisdictions to the extent permitted under federal tax law.

POSSIBLE TAX LAW CHANGES

Although the likelihood of legislative changes is uncertain, there is always the possibility that the tax treatment of the Contract could change by legislation or otherwise. Consult a tax advisor with respect to legislative developments and their effect on the Contract.

38

We have the right to modify the Contract in response to legislative changes that could otherwise diminish the favorable tax treatment that annuity Contract owners currently receive. We make no guarantee regarding the tax status of any contract and do not intend the above discussion as tax advice.

10. OTHER INFORMATION

SYMETRA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

Symetra Life Insurance Company was incorporated as a stock life insurance company under Washington law on January 23, 1957. Symetra Life Insurance Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Symetra Financial Corporation. We provide individual and group life, accident and health insurance, and annuity products and are licensed to do business in the District of Columbia and all states except New York.

SEPARATE ACCOUNT

We established Symetra Resource Variable Account B under Washington law on February 6, 1986. The Separate Account holds the assets that underlie Contract Values invested in the Sub-accounts. The Separate Account was registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Symetra Life is taxed as a life insurance company under the Code. Under Washington law, the assets in the Separate Account are the property of Symetra Life. For federal income tax purposes, the Separate Account is not a separate entity from Symetra Life and its operations form a part of Symetra Life. However, the portion of the assets in the Separate Account equal to the reserves and other Contract liabilities with respect to the Separate Account are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business that we may conduct. Income, gains and losses, realized and unrealized, from assets allocated to the Separate Account are credited to or charged against the Separate Account without regard to other income, gains or losses of Symetra Life. Promises we make in the Contract are general corporate obligations of Symetra Life and are not dependent on assets in the Separate Account.

CHANGES TO THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT

Where permitted by applicable law, we reserve the right to make certain changes to the structure and operation of the Separate Account. We will not make any such changes without receiving any necessary approval of the SEC and applicable state insurance departments. We will notify you of any changes in writing. These changes include, among others, the right to:

• Transfer assets supporting the Contracts from one Sub-account to another or from the Separate Account to another separate account;

• Combine the Separate Account with other separate accounts, and/or create new separate accounts;

• Deregister the Separate Account, or operate the Separate Account as a management investment company, or as any other form permitted by law;

• Manage the Separate Account under the direction of a committee at any time;

• Make any changes required by applicable law or regulation; and

• Modify the provisions of the Contract to reflect changes to the Sub-accounts and the Separate Account and to comply with applicable law.

Some, but not all, of these future changes may be the result of changes in applicable laws or interpretations of law. We reserve the right to make other structural and operational changes affecting the Separate Account.

GENERAL ACCOUNT

All amounts allocated to an annuity option become part of our General Account. Symetra Life exercises sole discretion over the investment of General Account assets, and bears the associated investment risk. You will not share in the investment experience of General Account assets. Assets in the General Account are not insulated from the claims of Symetra Life’s creditors and are subject to the liabilities arising from any of our other business. Any guarantees provided for under the Contract are backed by our financial strength and claims paying ability. You must look to the strength of the insurance company with regard to such guarantees. Interests in the General Account have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, nor is the General Account registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

DISTRIBUTION (PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER)

The Contracts are distributed by Symetra Securities, Inc. (“SSI”). They are sold by individuals who, in addition to being licensed to sell variable annuity contracts for Symetra Life, are also registered representatives of SSI or broker-dealers who have a current sales agreement with SSI and Symetra Life. SSI is an affiliate of Symetra Life and is located at 777 108 ^th Avenue NE, Suite 1200, Bellevue, Washington 98004. It is registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1934

39

and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). No amounts are retained by SSI for acting as principal underwriter for Symetra Life variable products.

We do not pay commissions for the promotion and sale of Symetra True Variable Annuity Contracts.

To the extent permitted by FINRA rules, promotional incentives or payments may be provided to broker-dealers and wholesalers based on sales volumes, the assumption of wholesaling functions or other sales-related criteria. Other payments may be made for other services that do not directly involve the sale of the Contracts. These services may include the recruitment and training of personnel, production of promotional literature, and similar services.

This Contract does not assess any sales charge. You indirectly pay for distribution expenses primarily, but not exclusively, through the mortality and expense risk charge and if applicable, the Sub-account fund facilitation fee. We may also pay for sales and distribution expenses out of any payments we receive from the underlying Portfolios or their investment advisors or affiliates for providing administrative, distribution and other services to the Portfolios.

AMENDMENTS TO THE CONTRACT

We reserve the right to amend the Contract to meet the requirements of applicable federal or state laws or regulations. Only an authorized officer of Symetra Life may change the Contract. You will be notified in writing of any changes, modifications or waivers.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There are no legal proceedings to which the Separate Account or SSI is a party. In the ordinary course of business, Symetra Life is engaged in various kinds of litigation, including class action and other lawsuits, or in arbitration. In some class action and other lawsuits involving insurance companies and other financial service providers, substantial damages have been sought and material settlement payments have been made. Although the outcome of any litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, at the present time it appears that there are no pending or threatened lawsuits that are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Separate Account, on Symetra Life’s ability to meet its obligations under the Contract, or on SSI’s ability to perform under its principal underwriting agreement.

RIGHT TO SUSPEND TRANSFERS OR WITHDRAWALS

We may be required to suspend or postpone payment of transfers, withdrawals, and benefits from the Sub-accounts for any period of time when:

• the NYSE is closed (other than customary weekend or holiday closings);

• trading on the NYSE is restricted;

• an SEC declared emergency exists such that disposal of or determination of the value of the Sub-accounts is not reasonably practicable; or

• the SEC, by order, so permits for your protection.

Federal laws designed to counter terrorism and prevent money laundering by criminals might, in certain circumstances, require us to reject a Purchase Payment and/or “freeze” your Contract. If these laws apply in a particular situation, we would not be allowed to process any request for withdrawals, surrenders, or death benefits, make transfers, or continue making payments under an annuity payment option. We may also be required to provide additional information about you or your Contract to government regulators.

REDUCTION OF CHARGES

Under some circumstances we may expect to experience lower costs or higher revenues associated with issuing and administering certain Contracts. For example, sales expenses are expected to be less when Contracts are sold to a large group of individuals. In these situations, we may have lower administrative costs due to the ability to centralize communications with one large group rather than individualized communications. Thus administrative tasks, such as the processing of forms and handling of Purchase Payments, withdrawals and surrenders may be administered more efficiently. Under such circumstances we may pass a portion of these anticipated savings on to you by reducing Owner transaction charges.

We may also take such action in connection with Contracts sold to our officers, directors, and employees and their family members, employees of our affiliates and their family members, and registered representatives and employees of broker-dealers that have a current selling agreement with us. In each circumstance such actions will be reasonably related to the savings or revenues anticipated and will be applied in a non-discriminatory manner. These actions may be withdrawn or modified by us at any time.

APPENDIX D: WTB RIDER EXAMPLE

The following is a hypothetical projection of Contract Values with resulting WTB Additional Benefits and WTB rider charges. The chart also shows the impact of certain transactions and Sub-account performance on the WTB rider, WTB rider charges, and Contract Value, including the impact of WTB Threshold Cap, and provides more detailed explanations of each such event.

The hypothetical projections shown below and elsewhere in this prospectus are illustrative only and should not be deemed a representation of past or future performance. Actual investment performance of the Portfolios may vary depending on a number of factors, including the investment allocations by the Contract Owner and different investment rates of return for the Portfolios. The WTB Additional Benefit and Contract Value for a Contract would be different from those shown if the actual investment performance of the Portfolios fluctuated above or below the assumptions used, if more withdrawals or Purchase Payments were made to the Contract, or if a Contract Owner did not match the assumptions below for our representative Contract Owner. No representation can be made by Symetra Life that these assumed projections can be achieved for any one Contract.

Explanatory Notes:

1	On 5/2/2014, the initial $750,000 Purchase Payment is applied to the Contract. The WTB Threshold is $750,000. Because the WTB Threshold is below the WTB Threshold Cap of $1,000,000, the entire Purchase Payment is covered.
2	On 6/2/2014, the Contract Value is equal to $775,000 (as shown under the “Contract Value Before Transactions” column). Because the WTB Threshold is below the WTB Threshold Cap of $1,000,000, the entire Contract Value is covered. The WTB Gain is equal to the Contract Value (as shown under the “Contract Value – Covered” column) less the WTB Threshold, which in this instance is the same as the covered Purchase Payments. ($775,000 - $750,000 = $25,000) To determine the WTB Benefit Base, the Contract Value is added to 50% of the WTB Gain. ($775,000 + (.50 x $25,000) = $787,500). The WTB Additional Benefit is the WTB Benefit Base minus the Contract Value. ($787,500 - $775,000 = $12,500) The rider charge for that Contract Month is determined by taking the WTB Additional Benefit and multiplying it by the WTB Charge Rate and then dividing it by 12. ($12,500 x 0.054619 / 12 = $56.89)
3	On 10/14/2014, an additional Purchase Payment of $500,000 is applied to the Contract. The new WTB Threshold is equal to the WTB Threshold shown for 10/2/2014 plus the additional Purchase Payment. ($750,000 + $500,000 = $1,250,000) Any additional Purchase Payment is applied first to the covered Purchase Payment amount, up to the $1,000,000 WTB Threshold Cap, then the uncovered amount. Thus, the amount applicable to the covered portion of the Purchase Payment is equal to the WTB Threshold Cap less the current covered Purchase Payment amount ($1,000,000 - $750,000 = $250,000). The uncovered Purchase Payment amount is increased by the remaining $250,000. The Contract Value is also divided into covered and uncovered portions based on the ratio of the covered Purchase Payments to the uncovered Purchase Payments. The ratio of covered Purchase Payment to uncovered Purchase Payments is $1,000,000 / $250,000, resulting in a 4 to 1 ratio. The Contract Value (as shown under the column “Total Contract Value after Transactions”) is divided in the same 4 to 1 ratio, which results in the following percentage allocation of Contract Value: 80% is covered and 20% is uncovered. ($1,240,000 x 80% = $992,000) ($1,240,000 x 20% = $248,000) The WTB Additional Benefit for a death occurring anytime during this Contract Month remains $2,500. The WTB Additional Benefit remains constant for the entire Contract Month regardless of any transactions during the Contract Month, and regardless of any changes in the Contract Value.
4	On 1/21/2015, a withdrawal of $110,000 is made from the Contract. The Contract Value before the withdrawal was equal to $1,230,000 (as shown in the column “Contract Value Before Transactions”). The withdrawal first reduces any WTB Earnings to zero, and then reduces the WTB Threshold. The excess of the Contract Value over the WTB Threshold before the withdrawal equals the Contract Value (as shown in the column “Contract Value Before Transactions”) less the WTB Threshold prior to the transaction, which is shown under the “WTB Threshold After Transactions” column for the 1/2/2015 date. ($1,230,000 - $1,250,000 = -$20,000) Because the result is a negative number, the WTB Earnings are equal to zero. Because WTB Earnings are equal to zero, the withdrawal reduces the WTB Threshold by the entire withdrawal amount. ($1,250,000 - $110,000 = $1,140,000) The reduction in the WTB Threshold of $110,000 must now be divided into covered and uncovered portions of Purchase Payments. The reduction applies proportionally based on the covered and uncovered Purchase Payment amounts prior to the withdrawal. Prior to the withdrawal, the covered Purchase Payment amount represented 80% ($1,000,000 / $1,250,000) of the total WTB Threshold. Thus, the covered Purchase Payment amount is reduced by the amount of the withdrawal multiplied by 80%. ($110,000 x 80% = $88,000) The new covered Purchase Payment amount is the WTB Threshold Cap adjusted for the withdrawal. ($1,000,000 - $88,000 = $912,000) Similarly, the uncovered Purchase Payment amount is reduced by 20% of the withdrawal amount. The new uncovered Purchase Payment amount is $228,000.
5	On 4/2/2015, the Contract Owner's WTB rider charge increased because the Contract Owner's attained age increased to age 76 on 3/11/2015, and 4/2/2015 is the first Business Day of the next Contract Month following the Contract Owner's birthday. Thus, the WTB rider charge calculations in the following 12 Contract Months will be based on age 76 (6.0240% in this example). Thus, the WTB rider charge calculation for 4/2/2015 is $4,000 (WTB Additional Benefit) x .060240/12= $20.08.

D-2

On 4/22/2015, a $220,000 withdrawal is made from the Contract. The Contract Value just before the withdrawal equals $1,170,000. The WTB Threshold just before the withdrawal equals $1,140,000. The withdrawal first reduces any WTB Earnings to zero, and then reduces the WTB Threshold. The WTB Earnings equal the amount by which your covered Contract Value exceeds the WTB Threshold. We use the WTB Threshold prior to the transaction which is shown under the 4/2/2015 date. ($1,170,000 - $1,140,000 = $30,000) Because the withdrawal was greater than the WTB Earnings, the WTB Earnings are reduced to zero. Thus the excess withdrawal reduces the WTB Threshold. The reduction to the WTB Threshold is equal to the withdrawal amount minus the WTB Earnings. ($220,000 - $30,000 = $190,000) The new WTB Threshold is thus equal to $1,140,000 - $190,000 = $950,000. The reduction in the WTB Threshold of $190,000 must now be divided into covered and uncovered portions of Purchase Payments. The reduction applies proportionally based on the covered and uncovered Purchase Payment amounts prior to the withdrawal. Prior to the withdrawal, the covered Purchase Payment amount represented 80% ($912,000 / $1,140,000) of the total WTB Threshold. Thus, the covered Purchase Payment amount is reduced by $152,000 ($190,000 x 80%). The new covered Purchase Payment amount is $912,000 - $152,000 = $760,000. Similarly, the uncovered Purchase Payment amount is reduced by 20% of the withdrawal. The new uncovered Purchase Payment amount is $190,000. Although the withdrawal depleted all the WTB Earnings, the WTB Additional Benefit for a death anytime this Contract Month remains $4,000. The WTB Additional Benefit is calculated on the first Business Day of the Contract Month. In this case the first Business Day is 4/2/2015 and the WTB Additional Benefit remains constant for the entire Contract Month. It is recalculated for the next Contract Month on the first Business Day of the following Contract Month which is 5/4/2015.

On 7/13/2015, a $300,000 Purchase Payment is applied. The new WTB Threshold is equal to $1,250,000 ($950,000 + $300,000). Any additional Purchase Payment is applied first to the covered Purchase Payment amount, up to the $1,000,000 WTB Threshold Cap, then the uncovered amount. Thus, the amount applicable to the covered portion is the WTB Threshold Cap minus the current covered amount. ($1,000,000 - $760,000 = $240,000) The remaining amount of $60,000 increases the uncovered Purchase Payment amount. The Contract Value is divided into covered and uncovered portions, based on the new ratio of the covered Purchase Payments to the uncovered payments. The ratio of covered Purchase Payment to uncovered Purchase Payment is: $1,000,000 / $250,000, resulting in a 4 to 1 ratio. The Contract Value (as shown under the column Total Contract Value after Transactions) is divided in the same 4 to 1 ratio. 80% is covered, the other remaining 20% is uncovered. ($1,255,000 x 80% = $1,004,000) ($1255,000 x 20% = $251,000) The total death benefit is equal to the Contract Value on the Business Day the death benefit is paid, plus any WTB Additional Benefit at the beginning of the Contract Month of the date of death. In addition, any WTB rider charges deducted after the date of death will be refunded. If the Contract Owner died any time on or after 6/2/2014 through 7/2/2014 and Symetra Life received due proof of death to pay the death benefit on 10/2/2014, the total death benefit would be equal to the Contract Value as of the Business Day we pay the death benefit plus the WTB Additional Benefit as of the date of death. ($755,000 + $12,500 = $767,500.) In addition, the July through October WTB rider charges, equal to $45.52 ($34.14 + $11.38) would be refunded. The total death benefit paid would be equal to the death benefit plus the refunded WTB rider charges. ($767,500 + $45.52 = $767,545.52) If the Contract Owner had died any time on or after 5/2/2015 through 6/1/2015, and Symetra Life received proof of death to pay the death benefit on 6/2/2015, the total death benefit would be equal to the Contract Value as of 6/2/2015 plus the WTB Additional Benefit as of 5/2/2015. ($960,000 + $0 = $960,000). In addition, the June WTB rider charge, equal to $20.08, would be refunded. The total death benefit would be equal to the death benefit plus any refunded WTB rider charges. ($960,000 + $20.08 = $960,020.08)

GENERAL INFORMATION

Terms and phrases used in this SAI have the meaning given to them in the prospectus.

Symetra Life Insurance Company (“Symetra Life”, “we”, and “us”), is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Symetra Financial Corporation, a holding company, the subsidiaries of which are engaged primarily in insurance and financial services businesses. Symetra Life Insurance Company was incorporated as a stock life insurance company under Washington State law on January 23, 1957.

We established Symetra Resource Variable Account B (“the Separate Account”) to hold assets that underlie contract values invested in a number of different variable annuity contracts. The Separate Account meets the definition of “separate account” under Washington State law and under the federal securities laws. The Separate Account is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. We maintain records of all Separate Account purchases and redemptions of the shares of the Sub-accounts.

Accumulation Units will reflect the investment performance of the Separate Account with respect to amounts allocated to it. Since the Separate Account is always fully invested in the shares of the Sub-accounts, its investment performance reflects the investment performance of those entities. The values of such shares held by the Separate Account fluctuate and are subject to the risks of changing economic conditions. The Contract Owner bears the entire investment risk. There can be no assurance that the aggregate value in the Contract will equal or exceed the Purchase Payments made under the Contract.

Symetra Resource Variable Account B

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of Symetra Life Insurance Company and Participants of Symetra Resource Variable Account B

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Symetra Resource Variable Account B (“Separate Account”) comprised of the sub-accounts described in Note 1, as of December 31, 2013, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, and the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, or for those sub-accounts operating for portions of such periods as disclosed in the financial statements. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Separate Account’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Separate Account’s 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 Separate Account’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, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2013, by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the respective sub-accounts constituting Symetra Resource Variable Account B at December 31, 2013, the results of their operations for the year then ended, and the changes in their net assets for the periods described above, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to Financial Statements

1. ORGANIZATION

Symetra Resource Variable Account B (the "Separate Account") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a segregated unit investment trust of Symetra Life Insurance Company ("Symetra Life"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Symetra Financial Corporation. Purchasers of various Symetra Life variable annuity products direct their investment to one or more of the sub-accounts of the Separate Account through the purchase of accumulation units ("Units"). Under the terms of the registration, the Separate Account is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Units. Each sub-account invests in shares of a designated portfolio of open-ended registered investment companies ("Mutual Funds") as indicated below. Not all sub-accounts are available in all Symetra Life variable annuity products. The performance of the underlying portfolios may differ substantially from publicly traded Mutual Funds with similar names and objectives.

Under applicable insurance law, the assets of the Separate Account are legally segregated and are not subject to claims that arise out of Symetra Life's and Symetra Financial Corporation's other business activities.

Symetra Resource Variable Account B
Notes to Financial Statements
2.	SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNT POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND USE OF ESTIMATES — The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), including the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The preparation of the Separate Account financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Separate Account to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in the audited financial statements and accompanying notes.

INVESTMENT VALUATION — Investments in portfolio shares are valued at fair value based on the net asset value (NAV) as reported by the underlying Mutual Fund on the last trading day of the year.

The Separate Account determines the fair value of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize its use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. This fair value hierarchy prioritizes fair value measurements into the three levels based on the nature of the inputs. Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities have the highest priority ("Level 1"), followed by significant observable inputs other than quoted market prices, including prices for similar but not identical assets or liabilities ("Level 2") and significant unobservable inputs, including the reporting entity's estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use, having the lowest priority ("Level 3").

The availability of observable market information is the principal factor in determining the level to which the Separate Account's investments are assigned in the fair value hierarchy. As such, all Separate Account investments have been classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS — Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined using the first-in-first-out (FIFO) method.

INCOME RECOGNITION — Dividend income and realized capital gain distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

DISTRIBUTIONS — The net investment income and realized capital gains of the Separate Account are not distributed, but are retained and reinvested for the benefit of unit owners.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX — Operations of the Separate Account are included in the federal income tax return of Symetra Life, which is taxed as a "Life Insurance Company" under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Under current federal income tax law, no income taxes are payable with respect to the operations of the Separate Account to the extent the earnings are reinvested.

3. EXPENSES AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Symetra Life assumes mortality and expense ("M&E") risks related to the operations of the Separate Account. Symetra Life deducts a daily charge from the assets of the Separate Account to cover these risks. This charge for the Resource Variable Account B Annuity is on an annual basis, equal to a rate of 1.25 percent of the average daily net assets of the Separate Account. This charge for the Symetra True Variable Annuity is on an annual basis, equal to the rate of 0.60 percent of the average daily net assets of the Separate Account. The charges are included in the net investment income (loss) in the accompanying Statements of Operations.

SUB-ACCOUNT FUND FACILITATION FEE: At this time Symetra Life does not assess a Sub-account fund facilitation fee for the Symetra True Variable Annuity. However, if we choose to impose this fee, the Sub-account fund facilitation fee may be charged to owners invested in any Sub-account offered under the contract. Symetra Life will notify you in writing if we choose to impose this fee and the fee will be applied to all new and existing contracts. The maximum amount charged is on an annual basis, equal to a rate of 0.15 percent of the average daily net assets. This charge if assessed would be included in the net investment income (loss) in the accompanying Statements of Operations.

WEALTH TRANSFER BENEFIT CHARGE ("WTB"): If you elect this rider for the Symetra True Variable Annuity, Symetra Life may deduct an additional charge on the first business day of each contract month. The charge is deducted pro-rata from your contract value invested in the standard Sub-accounts. The (WTB) charge is reflected as contract maintenance charges in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets. This charge does not apply to all products and may vary by contract year and other factors as described in the product prospectus.

SHORT TERM REDEMPTION FEES: Certain Sub-accounts invest in Mutual Funds that impose a short term redemption fee. Those Mutual Funds are: Fidelity VIP Energy Portfolio, Fidelity VIP Financial Services Portfolio, and the Fidelity VIP Technology Portfolio. An owner who chooses to redeem Accumulation Units of a Sub-account invested in any of these Mutual Funds will be subject to a 1.00 percent short-term trading fee if the Accumulation Unit has been held for less than 60 days. For this purpose,

70

Notes to Financial Statements
3.	EXPENSES AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (Continued)

Accumulation Units held longest will be treated as being redeemed first and Accumulation Units held shortest as being redeemed last. Redemption fees will be incurred when you withdraw Contract Value invested in one of the Sub-accounts or you transfer Contract

Value out of one of these Sub-accounts. The fee applies to both one-time transactions, scheduled transfers and withdrawals involving the Sub-accounts. The redemption fee will not apply to deductions from your Contract Value to pay the mortality and expense risk charge or other charges under the Contract. The redemption fee will also not apply to annuity payments or to any other transactions the applicable Mutual Funds or Symetra Life designates as exempt. The redemption fee charge is reflected as transfers out in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets. This charge does not apply to all products.

Symetra Life also deducts an annual contract maintenance charge of $30 for each contract from the Separate Account contract values. The maintenance charge is reflected as contract maintenance charge in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets. This charge does not apply to all products.

A withdrawal charge of $25 or 2.00 percent of the withdrawal amount, whichever is less, may be imposed on the owner of the policy for the second and each subsequent withdrawal in any one year. A transfer charge of $10 or 2.00 percent of the amount transferred, whichever is less, may be imposed on transfers that exceed the number of free transfers allowed each year for the Resource Variable Account B. A transfer charge of $25 for the Symetra True Variable Annuity will be assessed for transfers exceeding 25 every contract year. These charges are reflected as contract maintenance charges in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets. A surrender charge may be applicable in the first eight years on withdrawals that exceed the free withdrawal amount. The surrender charge is reflected as transfers out in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets. These charges do not apply to all products and may vary by contract year and other factors as described in the product prospectus.

Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2013, management fees were paid indirectly to Symetra Investment Management, Inc. an affiliate of the Company, in its capacity as investment advisor to certain funds as follows: a fee at the annual rate of 0.60 percent of the average net assets of the Symetra DFA International CORE Equity Fund, a fee of 0.90 percent of the average net assets of the Symetra DoubleLine Emerging Markets Income Fund, a fee of 0.55 percent of the average net assets of the Symetra DoubleLine Total Return fund, and a fee of 1.00 percent of the average net assets of the Symetra Yacktman Focused Fund.

Symetra Investment Management, Inc. has contractually agreed to waive 0.05 percent of its management fee (the "Fee Waiver) and also agreed to pay fund expenses in order to limit the fund's other Expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, capitalized expenditures, expenses related to short sales, expenses related to directed brokerage arrangements, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) to 0.13 percent of the average daily net assets of the Symetra DoubleLine Total Return Fund and Symetra DoubleLine Emerging Markets Income Fund, 0.12 percent of the Symetra Yacktman Focused Fund and 0.14 percent of the Symetra DFA International CORE Equity Fund (the "Expense Caps").

¹   Reference Note 1 of the financial statements for additional information pertaining to this sub-account.

²  These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the sub-account from the underlying Mutual Funds, net of management fees assessed by the Mutual Fund manager, divided by the trading day's average net assets. These ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense risk charges, that result in direct reductions 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 Mutual Fund in which the sub-accounts invest.

³  These amounts represent the annualized contract expenses of the Separate Account, consisting primarily of mortality and expense risk charges, for the period indicated. The ratios include only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to Unit values. Charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of Units and expenses of the underlying Mutual Fund are excluded.

⁴  These amounts represent the total return for the periods indicated, including changes in the value of the underlying Mutual Fund, and reflect deductions for all items included in the expense ratio with the exception of Mutual Fund reorganization. Mutual Funds that have reorganized during the year present information through the time of the reorganization. The total return ratio 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. The total return is calculated for the period indicated or from the effective commencement date through the end of the reporting period.

7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Separate Account has evaluated subsequent events through April 30, 2014, the date on which the Separate Account's financial statements were available to be issued.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors

Symetra Life Insurance Company

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Symetra Life Insurance Company as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholder’s equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s 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, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Symetra Life Insurance Company at December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

SYMETRA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(All amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

1. Organization and Description of Business

The accompanying financial statements include, on a consolidated basis, the accounts of Symetra Life Insurance Company (“Symetra Life”) and its two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Symetra National Life Insurance Company and First Symetra National Life Insurance Company of New York, collectively referred to as “Symetra” or “the Company.” Symetra Life is a stock life insurance company organized under the laws of the state of Washington and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Symetra Financial Corporation, a publicly traded Delaware corporation, referred to as “the Parent.”

Symetra offers products that serve the retirement, employee benefits and life insurance markets. These products are marketed through financial institutions, benefits consultants and independent agents and advisors in all states and the District of Columbia. The Company’s principal products include fixed and variable deferred annuities, single premium immediate annuities, medical stop-loss insurance, group life and disability income insurance, individual life insurance and institutional life insurance including bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) and variable corporate owned life insurance (COLI). The Company also services its block of structured settlement annuities.

Subsequent events have been considered through March 31, 2014, the date the financial statements were available to be issued, and have been included within the relevant notes.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. All significant intercompany transactions and balances between Symetra Life and its subsidiaries have been eliminated. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial information for it to conform to the current period presentation.

The most significant estimates include those used to determine the following: valuation of investments carried at fair value; the identification and measurement of other-than-temporary impairments (OTTI) of investments; the balance, recoverability and amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs (DAC) and deferred sales inducements (DSI); and the liabilities for funds held under deposit contracts, future policy benefits, and policy and contract claims. The recorded amounts reflect management’s best estimates, though actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company performs an ongoing qualitative assessment of its involvement with variable interest entities (VIEs). A VIE is an entity that does not have sufficient equity to finance its own activities without additional financial support, or where investors lack certain characteristics of a controlling financial interest. The Company assesses its contractual, ownership or other interests in a VIE to determine whether it has a variable interest in the entity, and if so, to determine whether the Company has a controlling financial interest and would therefore be considered the primary beneficiary of the VIE. If it is determined the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company includes the assets and liabilities of the VIE in the consolidated financial statements.

Recognition of Insurance Revenue and Related Benefits

The Company’s group insurance policies, which include medical stop-loss, limited benefit medical, and group life and disability income, are short duration contracts. Premiums from these products are recognized as revenue when earned over the life of the policy. Policyholder claims are charged to operations as incurred.

Traditional individual life insurance products, including term and whole life insurance products, are long-duration contracts, and the associated premiums and benefits are fixed. Premiums from these products are considered earned and recognized when due. The Company establishes a reserve for future policy benefits associated with earned premiums, resulting in the recognition of profits over the life of the policy.

Deposits related to universal life (UL) insurance products and investment-type products are credited to policyholder account balances and reflected as liabilities, rather than as premium income, when received. UL insurance products include BOLI and single-premium life (SPL) insurance. Investment-type products include fixed deferred annuities, single premium immediate annuities (SPIA), and structured settlements.

Revenues from UL insurance and investment type products consist of net investment income on the policyholders’ fund balances, and amounts assessed during the period for cost of insurance, policy administration, and surrender charges. The Company includes the amounts assessed in policy fees, contract charges, and other in the consolidated statements of income.

104

SYMETRA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(All amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

Expenses that are charged to operations for these products include interest credited and claims incurred in excess of related policyholder account balances.

Fees for variable products, including variable annuity, variable life and variable COLI products, include mortality and expense, policy administration and surrender charges. These fees are charged to policyholders’ accounts based upon the daily net assets of the policyholders’ account values, and are recognized in policy fees, contract charges, and other in the consolidated statements of income when assessed.

Investments

Available-for-Sale Securities

The Company classifies its investments in fixed maturities and certain marketable equity securities as available-for-sale and carries them at fair value. Fixed maturities primarily include bonds, mortgage-backed securities and redeemable preferred stock. See Notes 3 and 5 for additional information on these securities as well additional disclosures regarding their fair value measurements.

The Company reports net unrealized investment gains (losses) related to its available-for-sale securities in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) in stockholder's equity, net of related DAC and DSI adjustments and deferred income taxes. The cost of securities sold is determined using the specific-identification method.

The Company reports interest and dividends earned, including prepayment fees or interest-related make whole payments in net investment income. Interest income for fixed maturities is recognized using the effective yield method. When the collectability of interest income for fixed maturities is considered doubtful, any accrued but uncollectible interest is deducted from investment income in the current period. The Company then places the securities on nonaccrual status, and they are not restored to accrual status until all delinquent interest and principal are paid.

For mortgage-backed securities, the Company recognizes income using a constant effective yield based on anticipated prepayments and the estimated economic life of the securities. Quarterly, the Company compares actual prepayments to anticipated prepayments and recalculates the effective yield to reflect actual payments plus anticipated future payments. The Company includes any resulting adjustment in net investment income in the current period.

In the normal course of business, the Company makes passive investments in structured securities issued by VIEs. These structured securities primarily include residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities. Because the Company lacks the ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIEs, it is not considered the primary beneficiary and therefore does not consolidate them. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss with respect to these investments is limited to the amortized cost of the Company’s investment, which is $4,542.6 and $4,683.4 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Other-Than-Temporary Impairments

An impairment is recorded on an available-for-sale security when a decline in fair value below a security’s amortized cost is judged to be other-than-temporary. The Company’s review of securities includes both quantitative and qualitative criteria. See Note 3 for additional discussion regarding the Company’s process for identifying and recording OTTI.

Trading Securities

The Company is invested in common stock that is classified as trading. Changes in the fair value of the Company’s trading portfolio are recorded in net realized investment gains (losses) in the consolidated statements of income. Dividends earned on trading securities are reported in net investment income.

Mortgage Loans

The Company carries its mortgage loans at outstanding principal balances, adjusted for unamortized deferred fees and costs, net of an allowance for loan losses. Loan origination fees and costs are deferred and amortized over the life of the loan. Interest income, including amortization of deferred fees and expenses, is recorded in net investment income. See Note 4 for discussion of the Company’s allowance for loan losses.

105

SYMETRA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(All amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

Policy Loans

Policy loans are carried at unpaid principal balances. Policy loans are not granted for amounts in excess of the accumulated cash surrender value of the policy or contract.

Investments in Limited Partnerships

The Company invests in limited partnerships that generate tax benefits. These are established to invest in low-income housing and other qualifying purposes, where the primary return on investment is in the form of income tax credits (collectively, “tax credit investments”). The Company's investments are accounted for under the equity method and recorded at amortized cost, with amortization recorded as a reduction to net investment income. When the carrying value of an investment exceeds the amount of remaining tax benefits, the Company records an impairment loss, which is included in other net realized investment gains (losses) in the consolidated statements of income. The present value of any unfunded commitments related to these investments is recorded in other liabilities.

The limited partnerships that the Company invests in meet the definition of a VIE. Because the Company, as a limited partner, lacks the ability to direct the activities of any of these partnerships, it is not considered the primary beneficiary and therefore has not consolidated them. The maximum exposure to loss in these VIEs was $271.0 and $213.6 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The maximum exposure to loss includes unconditional commitments to provide future capital contributions.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company uses derivative financial instruments to hedge certain portions of its exposure to equity market risk, interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk. Derivative financial instruments currently held consist primarily of Standard & Poor’s 500 Index^® (“S&P 500”) options, interest rate swaps, foreign currency swaps and foreign currency forwards. Derivative instruments may be exchange-traded or contracted in the over-the-counter (“OTC”) market. The Company does not offset the fair value amounts recognized for derivatives executed with the same counterparty under the a master netting agreement. All of the Company’s derivative financial instruments are individually recognized at fair value as either assets within other invested assets, or liabilities within other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company also issues fixed indexed annuity contracts that contain an embedded derivative, which are recorded at fair value in funds held under deposit contracts in the consolidated balance sheets.

The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivative instruments depends on whether it qualifies and has been designated for hedge accounting. To qualify for hedge accounting treatment, a derivative must be highly effective in mitigating the designated risk of the hedged item. Effectiveness of the hedge is formally assessed at inception and throughout the life of the hedging relationship.

When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge and is determined to be highly effective, changes in its fair value are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) (OCI) and reclassified into net income in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects net income. Any hedge ineffectiveness is recorded in the consolidated statements of income within net realized investment gains (losses). If a derivative instrument does not qualify, or is not designated for hedge accounting, the changes in its fair value are recorded in the consolidated statements of income within net realized investment gains (losses).

The Company prospectively discontinues hedge accounting when: (1) the criteria to qualify for hedge accounting is no longer met (e.g., the derivative is no longer highly effective in offsetting the change in cash flows of a hedged item); (2) the derivative expires, is sold, terminated or exercised; or (3) the derivative is de-designated as a hedging instrument. If it is determined that a derivative no longer qualifies as an effective hedge, the derivative continues to be carried in the consolidated balance sheets at its fair value, with changes in fair value recognized prospectively in income. See Note 3 for further discussion of the Company’s derivative instruments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand bank deposits and short-term highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. Cash equivalents are reported at cost, which approximates fair value.

106

SYMETRA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(All amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

Reinsurance

The Company utilizes reinsurance agreements to manage its exposure to potential losses. The Company reinsures a portion of its risk to reinsurers for certain types of directly written business. In addition, the Company reinsures through pools to cover catastrophic losses. See Note 8 for further discussion of the Company's reinsurance agreements.

The Company remains liable to its policyholders to the extent that counterparties to reinsurance contracts do not meet their contractual obligations. Accordingly, the future policy benefit reserves and policy and contract claims liabilities are reported gross of any related reinsurance recoverables, which are reported as assets. The Company reports premiums, benefits, and settlement expenses net of reinsurance in the consolidated statements of income. The Company accounts for reinsurance premiums, commissions, expense reimbursements, benefits and reserves related to reinsured business on bases consistent with those used in accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of the reinsurance contracts.

Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs

The Company defers costs that are directly related to the successful acquisition or renewal of insurance contracts. These primarily include commissions, distribution costs directly related to production, third-party underwriting costs and the portion of salaries and benefits directly related to processing successful new and renewal contracts. All other acquisition-related costs, including costs incurred for soliciting potential customers, managing the distribution and underwriting functions, training, administration, unsuccessful acquisition or renewal efforts, market research and product development are not deferrable and are expensed in the period incurred.

The Company amortizes deferred acquisition costs for deferred annuity contracts and universal life insurance policies over the lives of the contracts or policies in proportion to the estimated future gross profits. The Company makes assumptions as to surrender rates, mortality experience, maintenance expenses, crediting rates, and investment performance. Actual profits can vary from the estimates and can thereby result in increases or decreases to DAC amortization. The Company regularly evaluates its assumptions and, when necessary, revises the estimated gross profits of these contracts, resulting in adjustments to DAC amortization. When such estimates are revised, the impact is recorded in the consolidated statements of income.

The Company amortizes acquisition costs for traditional individual life insurance policies over the premium paying period of the related policies, using assumptions consistent with those used in computing policy reserves. The Company amortizes acquisition costs for immediate annuities using a constant yield approach.

The Company conducts regular recoverability analyses for its DAC asset balances associated with deferred and immediate annuity contracts, universal life contracts, and traditional life contracts. The Company compares the current DAC asset balances with the estimated present value of future profitability of the underlying business. The DAC asset balances are considered recoverable if the present value of future profits is greater than the current DAC asset balance. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, all of the DAC asset balances were considered recoverable.

The Company adjusts the unamortized DAC balance for the effect of net unrealized gains and losses on securities and embedded derivatives as if they had been realized as of the balance sheet date. The Company includes the impact of this adjustment, net of tax, in AOCI. The Company also adjusts its unamortized DAC balance for the effect of realized gains and losses. These adjustments are recognized in net realized investment gains (losses) in the consolidated statements of income.

For some products, policyholders can elect to modify product benefits, features, rights or coverage by exchanging a contract for a new contract; by amendment, endorsement or rider to a contract; or by election of a feature or coverage within a contract. These transactions are known as internal replacements. If the modification substantially changes the original contract, the remaining DAC balance is immediately written off through earnings and any eligible costs associated with the replacement contract are deferred. If the modification does not substantially change the contract, the DAC is retained and amortized over the life of the modified contract, and any acquisition costs associated with the related modification are expensed as incurred.

Deferred Sales Inducements

The Company offers sales inducements on certain deferred annuity contracts and universal life policies. For certain deferred annuity contracts, the inducement entitles the contract holder to an incremental amount of interest that is credited to the account value over a 12- to 60-month period following the initial deposit, depending on the product. The incremental interest causes the initial credited rate to be higher than the contract’s expected ongoing crediting rates for periods after the inducement. For certain universal life policies, the inducement provides an immediate increment to the policyholder’s account value at the issue date or time of deposit. Deferred sales inducements are included in receivables and other assets and amortized into interest credited using the same methodology and assumptions used to amortize DAC. Deferred sales inducement balances

(All amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

are subject to regular recoverability testing to ensure that capitalized amounts do not exceed the present value of estimated gross profits. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, all of the deferred sales inducement balances were considered recoverable.

The Company adjusts the unamortized DSI balance for the effect of net unrealized gains and losses on securities and embedded derivatives as if they had been realized as of the balance sheet date. The Company includes the impact of this adjustment, net of tax, in AOCI. The Company also adjusts its unamortized DSI balance for the effect of realized gains and losses. These adjustments are recognized in net realized investment gains (losses) in the consolidated statements of income.

Separate Account Assets and Liabilities

Separate account assets are reported at fair value and represent funds that are invested on behalf of the Company’s variable product policyholders. The assets of each separate account are legally segregated and are not subject to claims that arise out of the Company’s other business activities. Investment risks associated with market value changes are borne by the policyholder, except to the extent of guaranteed minimum death benefits (GMDB) made by the Company with respect to certain accounts. Net investment income and realized investment gains and losses accrue directly to the policyholders and are not included in the Company’s revenues. Separate account liabilities represent the policyholder’s account balance in the separate account. Fees charged to policyholders reduce the account value and the Company includes these fees as revenue in the consolidated statements of income.

For variable annuity contracts with GMDB, the Company contractually guarantees death benefits that may exceed the policyholder's account balance. The Company reinsures nearly all of the GMDB risk on its variable annuity contracts.

Funds Held Under Deposit Contracts

Liabilities for fixed annuity contracts, and universal life policies, including BOLI and variable COLI, are computed as deposits net of withdrawals made by the policyholder, plus interest amounts credited based on contract specifications, less contract fees and charges assessed.

For SPIAs, including structured settlements, liabilities are based on discounted amounts of estimated future benefits. Future benefits are either fully guaranteed or are contingent on the survivorship of the annuitant. Contingent future benefits are discounted with pricing mortality assumptions, which include provisions for longer life spans over time. The interest rate pattern used to calculate the reserves for SPIAs is set at issue. The interest rates within the pattern vary over time and start with interest rates that prevailed at contract issue. As of December 31, 2013, the weighted-average implied interest rate on the existing book of business was 5.71% and is expected to grade to 6.37% during the next 20years.

Funds held under deposit contracts also include liabilities for the embedded derivative related to our fixed indexed annuity (FIA) policies, which is recorded at fair value. See Note 5 for further discussion of the valuation of the embedded derivative.

Future Policy Benefits

The Company estimates liabilities for future policy benefits for its traditional individual life policies as the present value of expected future policy benefits less future net premiums. The Company selects the net premiums so that the actuarial present value of future benefits equals the actuarial present value of future premiums. The Company sets the interest, mortality, and persistency assumptions in the year of issue and includes a provision for adverse deviation. The provision for adverse deviation is intended to provide coverage for the risk that actual experience may be worse than locked-in best-estimate assumptions. These liabilities are contingent upon the death or disability of the insured while the policy is in force. The Company derives mortality assumptions from both company-specific and industry statistics. Future benefits are discounted at interest rates that vary by year of policy issue. These rates are initially set to be consistent with portfolio rates at the time of issue, and are graded to a lower rate over time. Assumptions are set at the time each product is introduced and are not updated for actual experience unless the total product liability amount is determined to be inadequate to cover future policy benefits.

The Company estimates liabilities for future policy benefits for certain group life and long-term disability policies as the present value of future benefit payments, net of terminations and recoveries, and discounted at interest rates based on portfolio rates at the time of disability.

Policy and Contract Claims

Liabilities for policy and contract claims, which primarily represent liabilities for claims under medical stop-loss and individual life policies, are established on the basis of reported losses. The Company also provides for claims incurred but not

reported (IBNR). For medical stop-loss policies, this is based on expected loss ratios, claims paying completion patterns and historical experience. The Company reviews estimates for reported but unpaid claims and IBNR quarterly. Any necessary adjustments are reflected in earnings. If expected loss ratios increase or expected claims paying completion patterns extend, the IBNR claim liability increases.

Income Taxes

Symetra Life files a consolidated federal income tax return with its two wholly-owned subsidiaries. Income taxes have been determined using the liability method. The provision for income taxes has two components: amounts currently payable or receivable and deferred income taxes. The deferred income taxes are calculated as the difference between the book and tax bases of the appropriate assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is more likely than not that future taxable profits will be available. A valuation allowance is established where deferred tax assets cannot be recognized. See Note 10 for further discussion.

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities and ASU 2013-01, Scope Clarification of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210) — Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. This ASU requires the Company to disclose information about financial assets and liabilities that are offset or have the potential to be offset, along with the related contractual arrangements, to enable users to understand the effect of such arrangements on its balance sheets. The ASU requires the Company to disclose information on both a gross and net basis about instruments and transactions within the scope of this standard.

In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, Balance Sheet (Topic 210) – Scope Clarification of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. This ASU limits the scope requirements of ASU 2011-11 to derivatives, repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and lending transactions. The Company prospectively adopted ASU 2011-11 and 2013-01 on January 1, 2013 and included the disclosures in Note 3.

ASU 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) – Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. This ASU supersedes the presentation requirements in ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, and ASU 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05. This ASU requires the Company to present, either on the face of the financial statements or in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, the effect of significant reclassifications out of AOCI by the respective line item on the statements of income. This ASU does not change the requirement to present other comprehensive income by component in the consolidated financial statements. The Company prospectively adopted this standard on January 1, 2013 and included the disclosures in Note 7.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

ASU 2014-01, Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-01, Investments (Topic 323) – Equity Method and Joint Ventures: Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing (AFH) Projects. This ASU provides companies with the option to elect the proportional method of amortization for AFH investments if certain criteria are met. Under this method, a company would amortize the cost of its investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received. Amortization would be presented as a component of income tax expense. The standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015, with retrospective application required. The standard does not apply to other types of tax credit investments. The Company is currently evaluating whether it will elect the proportional amortization method for its AFH investments and the impact that it may have on the consolidated financial statements.

Other-Than-Temporary Impairments

The Company’s review of investment securities for OTTI includes both quantitative and qualitative criteria. Quantitative criteria include the length of time and amount that each security is in an unrealized loss position (i.e., is underwater) and, for fixed maturities, whether expected future cash flows indicate that a credit loss exists.

While all securities are monitored for impairment, the Company’s experience indicates that securities for which the cost or amortized cost exceeds fair value by less than 20% do not typically represent a significant risk of impairment and, often, fair values recover over time as the factors that caused the declines improve. If the estimated fair value has declined and remained below cost or amortized cost by 20% or more for at least six months, the Company further analyzes the decrease in fair value to determine whether it is an other-than-temporary decline. To make this determination for each security, the Company considers, among other factors:

• Extent and duration of the decline in fair value below cost or amortized cost;

• The financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer of the security, including any specific events that may affect its operations, earnings potential or compliance with terms and covenants of the security;

• Changes in the financial condition of the security’s underlying collateral;

• Any downgrades of the security by a rating agency;

• Nonpayment of scheduled interest, or the reduction or elimination of dividends;

• Other indications that a credit loss has occurred; and

• For fixed maturities, the Company’s intent to sell or whether it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the fixed maturity prior to recovery of its amortized cost, considering any regulatory developments, prepayment or call notifications and the Company’s liquidity needs.

For fixed maturities, the Company concludes that an OTTI has occurred if a security is underwater and there is an intent to sell the security or if the present value of expected cash flows is less than the amortized cost of the security (i.e., a credit loss exists). In order to determine the amount of the credit loss, the Company calculates the recovery value by discounting its estimate of future cash flows from the security. The discount rate is the original effective yield for corporate securities or current effective yield for mortgage-backed and other structured securities.

Determination of Credit-Related OTTI on Corporate Securities

To determine the recovery value for a corporate security, the Company performs an analysis including, but not limited to, the following:

• Expected cash flows of the issuer;

• Fundamentals of the industry in which the issuer operates;

• Fundamentals of the issuer to determine what the Company would recover if the issuer were to file for bankruptcy;

• Expectations regarding defaults and recovery rates;

• Changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency;

• Third party guarantees; and

• Additional available market information.

Determination of Credit-Related OTTI on Structured Securities

To determine the recovery value for a structured security, including residential mortgage-, commercial mortgage- and other asset-backed securities, the Company performs an analysis including, but not limited to, the following:

• Expected cash flows from the security;

• Creditworthiness;

• Delinquency ratios and loan-to-value ratios on the underlying collateral;

• Average cumulative collateral values, vintage year and level of subordination;

• Geographic concentrations; and

• Susceptibility to prepayment and anti-selection due to changes in the interest rate environment.

	Fair Value		Gross Unrealized Losses			Fair Value		Gross Unrealized Losses
Fixed maturities:

Total underwater fixed maturities	$	5,340.4	$	(271.0	)	$	1,106.7	$	(56.5	)

There were no marketable equity securities recorded as available-for-sale that were underwater by 20% or more as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.

The Company reviewed its available-for-sale investments with unrealized losses as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 in accordance with its impairment policy and determined, after the recognition of OTTI, that the remaining declines in fair value were temporary. The Company did not intend to sell its underwater securities, and it was not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities before recovery of cost or amortized cost, which may be maturity. For fixed maturities, this conclusion is supported by the Company’s spread analyses, cash flow modeling and expected continuation of contractually required principal and interest payments.

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company has evaluated the near-term prospects of its available-for-sale equity securities in relation to the severity and duration of the impairment. Based on that evaluation, the Company concluded that it had the ability and intent to hold these investments until a recovery of fair value.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivatives are instruments whose values are derived from underlying instruments, indexes or rates; have a notional amount; and can be net settled. This includes derivatives that are embedded in other financial instruments or in certain existing assets or liabilities. The Company is exposed to various risks relating to its ongoing business operations, primarily equity market risk, interest rate risk, and foreign currency exchange risk. The Company uses derivative instruments as one of its strategies to manage these risks. These derivative instruments primarily consist of equity index options, interest rate swaps, foreign currency swaps and foreign currency forwards. The Company has established policies for managing its derivatives, including prohibitions on derivatives market-making and other speculative derivatives activities.

The Company offers a FIA contract that permits the contract holder to allocate a portion of their account value to an equity market component, where interest credited to the contract is linked to the performance of the S&P 500 or a commodities-based index, subject to caps set by the Company. The contract holders may elect to rebalance index options at renewal dates annually. As of each renewal date, the Company has the opportunity to re-price the indexed component by establishing cap rates, subject to minimum guarantees.

The index-based crediting feature in these contracts is an embedded derivative instrument that is bifurcated from the host contract for measurement purposes, because it possesses economic characteristics that are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the host contract. The embedded derivative, which is reported with the host instrument as funds held under deposit contracts in the consolidated balance sheets, is carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net realized investment gains (losses).

The Company transacts in call options that are correlated to the portfolio allocation decisions of the contract holders, such that the Company is economically hedged with respect to equity returns for the current interest term. These derivatives are not designated for hedge accounting.

Foreign Currency Contracts

The Company uses foreign currency swaps and forwards as part of its foreign currency risk management strategy. The Company uses foreign currency swaps to reduce risks from changes in currency exchange rates with respect to the Company's investments denominated in foreign currencies. In a foreign currency swap transaction, the Company agrees with other parties to exchange, at specified intervals, one currency for another at a specified rate of exchange. Generally, the notional amount of each currency is exchanged at the maturity of the currency swap by each party. These derivatives qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges.

The Company is invested in foreign currency forwards to hedge exposure related to purchases of foreign denominated equities and fixed maturities. The Company invests in foreign currency forwards to economically hedge its exposure related to foreign currency-denominated fixed maturity purchases until a foreign currency swap is executed. In a foreign currency forward transaction, the Company agrees with other parties to deliver a specified amount of an identified currency at a specified future date. The price is agreed upon at the time of the contract and payment for such a contract is made at the specified future date. In general, the Company is selling a foreign currency and receiving U.S. dollars to protect against fluctuations in exchange rates over a short period of time. These derivatives are not designated for hedge accounting.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. In an interest rate swap, the Company agrees with other parties to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between floating-rate and fixed-rate interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed upon notional principal amount. The Company primarily uses interest rate swaps to synthetically convert variable rate fixed maturities to fixed rate securities. These derivatives qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges.

Collateral Arrangements and Offsetting of Financial Instruments

The Company’s derivative contracts are typically governed by an International Swaps and Derivatives Association (“ISDA”) Master Agreement, except for foreign currency forwards which do not require an ISDA. For each ISDA, the Company and the counterparty have also entered into a credit support annex (“CSA”) to reduce the risk of counterparty default in derivative transactions by requiring the posting of cash collateral or other financial assets. The CSA requires either party to post collateral when net exposures from all derivative contracts between the parties exceed pre-determined contractual thresholds, which vary by counterparty. The amount of net exposure is the difference between the derivative contract’s fair value and the fair value of the collateral held for such agreements with each counterparty. Collateral amounts required to be posted or received are determined daily based on the net exposure with each counterparty under a master netting agreement.

In the consolidated balance sheets, the Company recognizes cash collateral received in cash and cash equivalents, and the obligation to return cash collateral in other liabilities. Non-cash collateral received is not recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. In the event of default, the counterparty relinquishes claim to the assets pledged as collateral, and the Company recognizes the collateral as its own asset recorded at fair value, or, in the case of cash collateral, derecognizes its obligation to return collateral.

4. Mortgage Loans

The Company originates and manages a portfolio of mortgage loans which are secured by first-mortgage liens on income-producing commercial real estate, primarily in the retail, industrial and office building sectors. Loans are underwritten based on loan-to-value (LTV) ratios and debt-service coverage ratios (DSCR) as well as detailed market, property and borrower analyses. The Company’s mortgage loan portfolio is considered a single portfolio segment and class of financing receivables, which is consistent with how the Company assesses and monitors the risk and performance of the portfolio. A large majority of these loans have personal guarantees, and all mortgaged properties are inspected annually. The Company’s mortgage loan portfolio is generally diversified by geographic region, loan size and scheduled maturity. As of December 31, 2013, the three states with the largest concentrations of the Company's commercial mortgage loans were California, primarily the Los Angeles area, Texas and Washington. Loans in these states comprised 29.4%, 11.6% and 9.0% of the total portfolio, respectively.

Allowance for Mortgage Loans

The allowance for losses on mortgage loans provides for the risk of credit loss inherent in the lending process. The allowance includes a portfolio reserve for probable losses incurred but not specifically identified and, as needed, specific reserves for impaired loans. The allowance for losses on mortgage loans is evaluated at each reporting period and adjustments are recorded when appropriate. To assist in its evaluation of the allowance for loan losses, the Company utilizes the following credit quality indicators to categorize its loans as lower, medium or higher risk:

• Lower Risk Loans – Loans with an LTV ratio of less than 65%, and a DSCR of greater than 1.50.

• Medium Risk Loans – Loans that have an LTV ratio of less than 65% but a DSCR below 1.50, or loans with an LTV ratio between 65% and 80%, and a DSCR of greater than 1.50.

• Higher Risk Loans – Loans with an LTV ratio greater than 80%, or loans which have an LTV ratio between 65% and 80%, and a DSCR of less than 1.50.

Loans are specifically evaluated for impairment if the Company considers it probable that amounts due according to the terms of the loan agreement will not be collected, or the loan is modified in a troubled debt restructuring. The Company establishes specific reserves for these loans when the fair value is less than its carrying value.

(1) As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, reserve amounts of $0.2 and $0.0, respectively, were held for loans specifically evaluated for impairment.

(2) Includes the allowance for loan losses and deferred fees and costs.

In developing its portfolio reserve for incurred but not specifically identified losses, the Company evaluates loans by risk category and considers its past loan experience, commercial real estate market conditions, and third party data for expected losses on loans with similar LTV ratios and DSCRs. Each loan’s LTV ratio and DSCR is updated annually, primarily during the third quarter. In developing its provision for specifically identified loans, a market valuation on the collateral is performed to determine if a reserve is necessary.

The following table summarizes the activity in the Company’s allowance for mortgage loan losses, which includes portfolio and specific reserves:

	For the Years Ended December 31,
	2013		2012			2011
Allowance at beginning of period	$	7.9	$	7.4		$	7.1
Provision for specific loans	0.2		1.2			0.3
Provision for loans not specifically identified	—		0.8			—
Charge-offs	—		(1.5		)	—
Allowance at end of period	$	8.1	$	7.9		$	7.4

Non-performing loans, defined generally as those in default, close to being in default or more than 90 days past due, are placed on non-accrual status. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, no loans were considered non-performing and included in the assessment of the provision for specific loans.

5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company determines the fair value of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy, which favors the use of observable inputs over the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company has categorized its financial instruments into the three-level hierarchy, which gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The level to which a fair value measurement falls is assigned based on the lowest-level input that is significant to the measurement. The fair value measurements for the Company’s financial instruments are categorized as follows:

• Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments. This category primarily consists of exchange-traded marketable equity securities and mutual fund investments.

• Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable. This category includes those financial instruments that are valued using industry-standard pricing methodologies or models. All significant inputs are observable or derived from observable information in the marketplace. Financial instruments in this category primarily include corporate fixed maturities and mortgage-backed securities.

• Level 3 — Fair value estimates whose significant inputs are unobservable. This includes financial instruments for which fair value is estimated based on industry-standard pricing methodologies and internally developed models

utilizing significant inputs not based on or corroborated by readily available market information. In limited circumstances, this may also utilize estimates based on non-binding broker quotes. This category primarily consists of funds held under deposit contracts and mortgage loans.

The following tables present the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments classified by the valuation hierarchy described above. The financial instruments are separated between those measured at fair value on a recurring basis and those not carried at fair value, but for which disclosure of fair value is required.

Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Fixed Maturities

The vast majority of the Company’s fixed maturities have been classified as Level 2 measurements. To make this assessment, the Company determines whether the market for a security is active and if significant pricing inputs are observable. The Company predominantly utilizes third party independent pricing services to assist management in determining the fair value of its fixed maturity securities. As of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, pricing services provided prices for 96.5% and 96.2% of the Company’s fixed maturities.

The Company analyzes the prices received from the pricing services to ensure they represent a reasonable estimate of fair value, including analytical reviews of prices between reporting periods. The Company also performs procedures to gain assurance on the overall reasonableness and consistent use of inputs, valuation methodologies and compliance with fair value accounting standards. This includes an annual review of pricing methodologies and inputs by asset class and performing periodic due diligence procedures, including quarterly deep-dive analyses, monthly price fluctuation analyses, and corroboration of prices by obtaining secondary pricing quotes for selected securities. Based upon its analyses, the Company has not adjusted prices obtained from the pricing services.

122

(All amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

The pricing services provide prices where observable inputs are available, utilizing evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class. If sufficient objectively verifiable information about a security’s valuation is not available, the pricing services will not provide a valuation for the security. In these situations, the security’s fair value is determined using internal pricing models.

As of December 31, 2013, the Company had $653.7 or 2.8%, of its fixed maturities invested in private placement securities. The use of significant observable inputs in determining the fair value of the Company’s investments in private placement securities resulted in the classification of $635.6, or 97.2%, as Level 2 measurements as of December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had $819.6, or 3.5%, of its fixed maturities invested in private placement securities, of which $787.3, or 96.1%, were classified as Level 2 measurements.

Corporate Securities

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the fair value of the Company’s corporate securities classified as Level 2 measurements was $17,215.5 and $17,126.8, respectively. The following table presents additional information about the composition of the Level 2 corporate securities:

	As of December 31, 2013						As of December 31, 2012
	Amount			% of Total		# of Securities	Amount			% of Total		# of Securities
Significant security sectors:
Industrial	$	3,229.1		18.8	%	223	$	3,308.5		19.3	%	218
Consumer staples	2,655.1			15.4		159	2,779.5			16.2		157
Consumer discretionary	2,172.0			12.6		184	2,110.2			12.3		167
Utilities	1,891.0			11.0		146	1,904.8			11.1		149
Weighted-average coupon rate	5.62		%				5.88		%
Weighted-average remaining years to contractual maturity	9.6						10.3

The majority of corporate securities classified as Level 2 measurements are priced by independent pricing services utilizing evaluated pricing models. Because many corporate securities do not trade on a daily basis, evaluated pricing models apply available information through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing to prepare valuations. The significant inputs for security evaluations include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and other reference data, including market research publications.

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, $523.5, or 3.0%, and $675.1, or 3.9%, respectively, of Level 2 corporate securities were privately placed. These securities were valued using a matrix pricing approach. The significant inputs to the measurement are the base credit spread, treasury yield and expected future cash flows of the security, which are all observable inputs. The base spread is determined based on trades of similar publicly-traded securities, and the expected future cash flows are based on the contractual terms of the security. The valuation approach also incorporates an illiquidity spread, determined based on premiums demanded by investors for privately placed securities. The illiquidity spread is an unobservable input, which ranges from 0 to 25 basis points and is based on the credit quality of the security. The illiquidity spread does not significantly impact the resulting valuation.

Residential Mortgage-backed Securities

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the fair value of the Company’s residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) classified as Level 2 measurements was $2,737.8 and $2,986.7, respectively. These securities were primarily fixed-rate, with a weighted-average coupon rate of 4.39% and 4.67% as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Level 2 RMBS securities are priced by pricing services that utilize evaluated pricing models. Because many RMBS do not trade on a daily basis, evaluated pricing models apply available information through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing to prepare evaluations. The significant observable inputs for security evaluations include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and other reference data, including market research publications. In addition, the pricing services use models and processes to develop prepayment and interest rate scenarios. The pricing services monitor market indicators, industry and economic events, and their models take into account market convention.

Non-agency RMBS with super senior subordination	$	178.3	59.8	%	$	202.7	63.5	%

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s non-agency Level 2 RMBS had a weighted-average credit enhancement of 8.8% and 8.4%, respectively. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, $110.3 and $127.7, or 37.0% and 40.0%, respectively, of the Company’s non-agency Level 2 RMBS had an origination or vintage year of 2004 and prior. The underlying collateral in years prior to 2005 is considered higher quality as underwriting standards were more stringent.

Commercial Mortgage-backed Securities

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the fair value of the Company’s commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) classified as Level 2 measurements was $1,502.8 and $1,684.0, respectively. The weighted-average coupon rate on these securities was 4.83% and 5.03% as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Level 2 CMBS securities are priced by pricing services that utilize evaluated pricing models. Because many CMBS do not trade on a daily basis, evaluated pricing models apply available information through processes, such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing to prepare evaluations. The significant observable inputs for security evaluations include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, new issues, monthly payment information and other reference data, including market research publications.

The Company’s Level 2 CMBS securities were primarily non-agency securities, which comprised 83.2% and 78.4% of Level 2 CMBS as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Marketable Equity Securities

Marketable equity securities are investments in common stock and certain nonredeemable preferred stocks. The securities primarily consist of investments in publicly traded companies. When the fair values of the Company’s marketable equity securities are based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets, they are classified as Level 1 measurements. The fair values of nonredeemable preferred stocks are valued by pricing services utilizing evaluated pricing models and are classified as Level 2 measurements. These valuations are created based on benchmark curves using industry standard inputs and exchange prices of underlying securities and common stock of the same issuer.

Separate Accounts

Separate account assets are primarily invested in mutual funds with published net asset values (NAVs), which are classified as Level 1 measurements.

Embedded Derivatives

Embedded derivatives relate to the Company’s FIA product, which credits interest to the policyholder’s account balance based on increases in equity or commodity indexes. See Note 3 for further discussion. The fair value of the embedded derivative reflects the excess of the projected benefits based on the indexed fund value over the projected benefits based on the guaranteed fund value. The excess benefits are projected using best estimates for surrenders, mortality and indexed fund interest, and discounted at a risk-free rate plus a spread for nonperformance risk. Because the estimates utilize significant unobservable inputs, the Company classifies the embedded derivative as a Level 3 measurement.

Other Financial Instruments Subject to Fair Value Disclosure Requirements

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand bank deposits and short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. Cash equivalents are reported at cost, which approximates fair value, and were $29.5 and $116.3 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The fair value of the Company’s mortgage loans are measured by discounting the projected future cash flows using the current rate at which the loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same maturities.

The fair value of the Company’s investments in limited partnerships associated with tax credit investments are estimated based on the discounted cash flows over the remaining life of the tax credits, using the original internal rate of return for each investment.

The fair values of funds held under deposit contracts related to investment-type contracts are estimated based on the present value of the discounted cash flows. Cash flows were projected using best estimates for lapses, mortality and expenses, and discounted at a risk-free rate plus a nonperformance risk spread.

8. Reinsurance

The Company reinsures portions of its insurance risk with reinsurance and other insurance companies in order to diversify risk and manage loss exposure, primarily in the Individual Life and Benefits segments.

In the Individual Life segment, the Company reinsures portions of its risk associated with its universal life, term life, BOLI and variable COLI products. Coverage under these reinsurance agreements varies by product, policy issue year and issue age of the insured. For policies issued through the first quarter of 2013, the Company retained face values of $0.5 to $1.0 on individual policies. In March 2013, the Company increased its retention to $3.0 for certain polices issued thereafter. As of December 31, 2013, most of the Company's fully underwritten term life was 50% to 90% reinsured.

In the Benefits segment, the Company reinsures portions of risk associated with its group life and disability income and medical stop-loss businesses. The Company reinsured its group life risk and capped its liability at $0.25 per individual, per line of coverage. The Company reinsured 40% of its short-term disability risk prior to June 2013, and 20% thereafter. The Company reinsured 90% of its long-term disability risk. The Company reinsured its exposure to medical stop loss claims in excess of $1.0 for aggregate policies and $1.1 per individual for policies issued prior to October 2013, and increased its retention to $1.5 per individual thereafter. The Company also has catastrophic coverage for its group life policies based on geographic location.

The Company evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers to monitor its exposure to losses from reinsurer insolvencies. As of December 31, 2013, $121.1 or 39.0%, of the reinsurance recoverable was related to one reinsurer. The Company analyzes reinsurance recoverables according to the credit ratings of its reinsurers and is not aware of its major reinsurers currently experiencing financial difficulties. Of the total amount due from reinsurers as of both December 31, 2013 and 2012, 99.6% were with reinsurers rated A- or higher by A.M. Best. The Company had no write-offs or reserve for uncollectible reinsurance in 2013, 2012 or 2011.

Reinsurance recoverables are composed of the following amounts:

	As of December 31,
	2013		2012
Life insurance:
Reinsurance recoverables on:
Funds held under deposit contracts	$	92.1	$	89.1
Future policy benefits	142.9		142.9
Paid claims, expense allowance and premium tax recoverables	1.5		2.8
Policy and contract claims	3.7		4.5
Total life insurance	240.2		239.3

Percentage of assumed to total premiums and other amounts assessed to policyholders (1)	0.01		%	2.25		%	8.65		%
_______________

(1) The decrease in assumed accident and health premiums and the percentage of assumed to total premiums and other amounts assessed to policyholders in 2012 and 2013 is related to the indemnity reinsurance agreement and acquired renewal rights for medical stop-loss insurance policies issued by American United Life Insurance Company (AUL) on July 1, 2011.

(2) Total policy fees and contract charges represents amounts charged to policyholders other than premiums and are recorded in policy fees, contract charges and other in the consolidated statements of income. This primarily consists of costs of insurance charges.

Ceded reinsurance reduced policyholder benefits and claims by $65.2, $63.9 and $55.6 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

9. Liability for Unpaid Claims and Claim Adjustment Expenses

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending liability balances for unpaid claims and claims adjustment expenses. These reserves include policy and contract claims and certain amounts recorded in future policy benefits on the consolidated balance sheets.

	As of December 31,

Balance as of January 1	$	227.7		$	234.6		$	222.5

Prior years	(10.4		)	(10.4		)	(13.7		)
Total incurred	469.1			444.9			390.2

The current year	320.0			297.4			237.2
Prior years	147.9			156.3			142.5
Total paid	467.9			453.7			379.7
Net balance as of December 31	165.2			164.0			172.8
Add: reinsurance recoverables	69.2			63.7			61.8
Balance as of December 31	$	234.4		$	227.7		$	234.6

The Company uses estimates in determining its liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses. These estimates are based on historical claim payment patterns and expected loss ratios to provide for the inherent variability in claim patterns and severity. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the change in prior year incurred claims was primarily due to favorable claims experience for medical stop-loss, offset by higher than expected claims on the Company's BOLI product. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the change in prior year incurred claims was primarily due to favorable claims experience for medical stop-loss, primarily related the business we assumed in July 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the change in prior year incurred claims was primarily due to favorable claims experience for medical stop-loss, offset by higher than expected individual life claims.

10. Income Taxes

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions. The Company’s federal income tax returns have been examined and closing agreements have been executed with the Internal Revenue Service, or the statute of limitations has expired for all tax periods through December 31, 2009. The Company is not currently subject to any state income tax exams.

Differences between income taxes computed by applying the U.S. federal income tax rate of 35% to income from operations before income taxes and the provision for income taxes were as follows:

	For the Years Ended December 31,
	2013					2012					2011

Other	1.4		1.4
Total deferred income tax liabilities	592.4		987.6
Deferred income tax liabilities, net	$	232.7	$	653.4

As of December 31, 2013, the Company has no net operating loss carry-forwards.

The Company is required to establish a valuation allowance for any portion of the deferred tax assets that management believes will not be realized. Based on an analysis of the Company’s tax position, management believes that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to enable the Company to utilize all of its deferred tax assets. Accordingly, no valuation allowance for deferred tax assets has been established as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.

The Company includes penalties and interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in the calculation of income tax expense. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has no unrecognized tax benefits and does not expect significant changes within the next year.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

Because of the nature of its business, the Company is subject to legal actions filed or threatened in the ordinary course of its business operations. The Company does not expect that any such litigation, pending or threatened, as of December 31, 2013, will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition, future operating results or liquidity.

Other Commitments

The Company has a service agreement with a third party service provider to outsource the majority of its information technology infrastructure. The initial term of the service agreement expires in July 2014, subject to early termination in certain cases, with two one-year extensions at the Company’s election. On March 3, 2014, the Company executed a one-year extension, which extended the expiration date of the agreement to July 31, 2015. The material terms of the agreement remain unchanged. Under the terms of the service agreement, the Company agreed to pay an annual fixed service fee ranging from $10.6 to $11.4 for five years. The Company incurred service fee expenses of $13.4, $13.6 and $12.3 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, which included the fixed fee as well as a variable fee based on usage.

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, unfunded mortgage loan commitments were $50.5 and $64.4, respectively. The Company had no other material commitments or contingencies as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.

12. Employee Benefit Plans

Defined Contribution Plan

The Company sponsors a defined contribution 401(k) plan for all eligible employees that includes matching a participant’s contributions up to 6% of eligible compensation. The expense for the matching contributions was $5.8, $5.4 and $4.7 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Equity Plan

The Company's employees participate in the Parent's Equity Plan, the Symetra Financial Corporation Equity Plan, amended and restated on November 8, 2011. The Parent has the ability to issue various types of awards, including restricted stock, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units and other types of awards at the discretion of the Parent's board of directors.

During 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Parent granted performance units to various members of the Company's management. The value of each performance unit is determined at the discretion of the Parent’s board of directors based on its success over a three-year period. These are accounted for as liability awards, as the Parent intends or is required to settle such awards in cash. The Company recognized $6.6, $4.5 and $2.5 in expense related to performance units granted under the Equity Plan for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The Company's employees also received stock-based compensation in the form of restricted shares and options issued by the Parent. Compensation expense for these awards is recognized over the requisite service period, using the straight-line method, based on the grant-date fair value. These awards are recorded as capital contributions to the Company.

The Company was allocated compensation expenses related to awards granted to its employees as follows:

	For the Years Ended December 31,
	2013		2012	2011
Restricted stock (1)	$	3.6	3.4	2.0
Stock options (2)	0.9		0.5	1.0
___________________

(1) The related income tax benefit was $1.3, $1.2 and $0.7 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

(2) The related income tax benefit was $0.3, $0.2 and $0.4 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

13. Dividends

Symetra Life is restricted by state regulations as to the aggregate amount of dividends it may pay to the Parent in any consecutive 12-month period without regulatory approval. Accordingly, based on statutory limits as of December 31, 2012, Symetra Life was eligible to distribute dividends to the Parent during 2013 without obtaining regulatory approval as long as the aggregate dividends distributed over the 12 months preceding any dividend disbursement date in 2013 did not exceed $282.2. The total amount of dividends paid by Symetra Life to the Parent during 2013 was $195.0.

Based on state regulations as of December 31, 2013, Symetra Life is eligible to disburse dividends to the Parent during 2014 without obtaining regulatory approval as long as the aggregate dividends disbursed over the 12 months preceding any dividend payment date in 2014 do not exceed $187.0. In January 2014, Symetra Life paid a $45.0 dividend that was declared in December 2013. More information about the capital requirements of the Company can be found in Note 14.

14. Statutory-Basis Information

Symetra Life and its two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Symetra National Life Insurance Company and First Symetra National Life Insurance Company of New York, are required to prepare statutory financial statements in accordance with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the insurance department of the state of domicile. Statutory accounting practices primarily differ from GAAP by charging policy acquisition costs to expense as incurred and establishing future policy benefit liabilities using different actuarial assumptions, as well as accounting for investments, certain assets and deferred taxes on a different basis. Permitted statutory accounting practices encompass all accounting practices not so prescribed, which have been specifically allowed by state insurance authorities. The Company has no material permitted accounting practices.

On January 14, 2014, Symetra Life filed an application with the Washington State Office of the Insurance Commissioner and the Iowa Insurance Division to redomesticate from Washington to Iowa. The change in legal domicile is expected to occur during 2014, pending regulatory approvals. The Company does not expect the change in domicile to affect existing policyholders or to have significant effect on the Company's financial position and results of operations.

The statutory net income (loss) and statutory capital and surplus for Symetra Life and its subsidiaries are as follows:

	For the Years Ended December 31,

Statutory net income (loss):
Symetra Life Insurance Company	$	183.6	$	252.3	$	155.8

Symetra National Life Insurance Company	10.0		9.5		9.5
_______________

(1) Symetra Life’s surplus includes the surplus of its two wholly owned subsidiaries, First Symetra National Life Insurance Company of New York and Symetra National Life Insurance Company

Each company's respective state of domicile imposes minimum risk–based capital (RBC) requirements that were developed by the NAIC. The formulas for determining the amount of RBC specify various weighting factors that are applied to the financial balances or various levels of activity based on the perceived degree of risk. Regulatory compliance is determined by a ratio of total adjusted capital, as defined by the NAIC, to authorized control level RBC, as defined by the NAIC. Companies below specific trigger points or ratios are classified within certain levels, each of which requires specified correction action. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, Symetra Life and its subsidiaries each exceeded the minimum RBC requirements of 200%, and maintained risk-based capital ratios in excess of 460%. The Company’s minimum statutory capital and surplus necessary to satisfy regulatory requirements in the aggregate was $472.4 at December 31, 2013, of which 96.7% was attributable to Symetra Life.

Symetra Life is subject to certain insurance department regulatory restrictions as to the payment of dividends to the Parent. More information on the restrictions on the payment of dividends can be found in Note 13.

SYMETRA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(All amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

The Company is party to an Investment Management Agreement with White Mountains Advisors, LLC (WMA), a subsidiary of White Mountains Insurance Group, Ltd., which is an affiliate of the Parent. This agreement, as amended, provides for investment advisory services related to the Company’s invested assets and portfolio management services.

The Company’s affiliate, Symetra Assigned Benefits Service Company (SABSCO), purchased future payment streams of structured settlement annuity contracts issued by the Company from third-party payees. These contracts were assigned to and owned by SABSCO. The Company issued commutation endorsements to pay SABSCO lump sum amounts in lieu of receiving the future payment streams in the structured settlement annuity contracts and releases its reserves related to the contract.

The Company has entered into various agreements with the Parent and its affiliates for services necessary to conduct its activities. These agreements specify that the parties will provide to and receive from each other certain general services related to sharing common management, personnel and facilities, and that the related expenses will be shared. These expenses include rent, corporate overhead, data processing systems, payroll, benefits and other charges. These expenses were allocated on a basis that management considers to reasonably reflect expenses as if the Company operated as an unaffiliated entity. In addition, the Company paid concessions, general agent fees, administrative and underwriting fees for services provided by its affiliates. These affiliates primarily included Symetra Securities, Inc. and Medical Risk Managers, Inc.

It is the Company’s policy to settle amounts due from affiliated companies within 30 days, except for amounts related to performance unit awards granted under the Equity Plan, which are settled when the awards are paid to the employee. Refer to Note 12 for discussion of these awards.

16. Segment Information

The Company offers a broad range of products and services that include retirement, group health and employee benefits and life insurance products. These operations are managed separately as three divisions, consisting of four business segments based on product groupings, and a fifth reportable segment consisting primarily of unallocated items and surplus investment income. The five segments are Benefits, Deferred Annuities, Income Annuities, Individual Life and Other, described further below.

The primary profitability measure that management uses to manage segment results is pre-tax adjusted operating income (loss). Pre-tax adjusted operating income is defined as income from operations, excluding net realized investment gains (losses) that are not reflective of the performance of the Company's insurance operations. Excluded gains (losses) are associated with investment sales or disposal, other-than-temporary investment impairments, changes in the fair value of mark-to-market investments and derivative investments (except for certain S&P 500 options) and changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives related to our FIA product.

In the Deferred Annuities segment, certain net investment gains (losses) related to FIA products sold in the late 1990s are considered related to the performance of insurance operations and included in the pre-tax adjusted operating income. These products credit interest to policyholder accounts based on equity market performance, which is recorded in interest credited. The Company purchases S&P 500 options to economically hedge exposure to this block of business, which are not designated for hedge accounting. Any realized gains from these options are used to meet policyholder obligations.

Benefits Division

• Benefits. Benefits offers products and services related to medical stop-loss insurance, limited benefit medical insurance, group life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance and disability income insurance, mainly to employer groups.

Retirement Division

• Deferred Annuities. Deferred Annuities offers fixed and variable deferred annuities, including fixed indexed annuities, to consumers who want to accumulate tax-deferred assets for retirement.

• Income Annuities. Income Annuities offers SPIAs to customers seeking a reliable source of retirement income or to protect against outliving their assets during retirement. In addition, Income Annuities services a block of structured settlement policies sold to fund third party personal injury settlements.

Individual Life Division

• Individual Life. Individual Life offers insurance products such as term and universal life insurance. Individual Life also offers institutional products including BOLI and variable COLI.

(All amounts in millions, unless otherwise stated)

Non-Operating

• Other. This segment consists of unallocated income, which primarily includes investment income on unallocated surplus, earnings related to tax credit investments, and inter-segment elimination entries.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2, except for the method of capital allocation. The Company has an internally developed risk-based capital model, the purpose of which is to measure the risk in the business and to provide a basis upon which capital is deployed. This model accounts for the unique and specific nature of the risks inherent in the Company’s segments and a portion of net investment income on surplus investments are allocated to the segments based on the level of allocated capital.

The following tables present selected financial information by segment and reconcile segment pre-tax adjusted operating income (loss) to amounts reported in the consolidated statements of income.

Item 26. Persons Controlled By or Under Common Control With the Depositor or Registrant

Symetra Life established Registrant by resolution of its Board of Directors pursuant to Washington law. Symetra Life is a wholly owned subsidiary of Symetra Financial Corporation. Symetra Financial Corporation is organized under Delaware law and Symetra Life is organized under Washington law. All subsidiaries are included in consolidated financial statements. Following is the organizational chart of Symetra Financial Corporation.

7

Item 27. Number of Contract Owners

As of March 31, 2014, there were 1,100 Contract Owners and 1,542 Certificate-Holders of the Registrant.

Item 28. Indemnification

Under its Bylaws, Symetra Life, to the full extent permitted by the Washington Business Corporation Act, shall indemnify any person who was or is a party to any proceeding (whether brought by or in the right of Symetra Life or otherwise) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director of Symetra Life, or, while a director of Symetra Life, is or was serving at the request of Symetra Life as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee, or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, other enterprise, or employee benefit plan, against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by him or her in connection with such proceeding.

Symetra Life shall extend such indemnification as is provided to directors above to any person, not a director of Symetra Life, who is or was an officer of Symetra Life or is or was serving at the request of Symetra Life as a director, officer, partner, trustee, or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, other enterprise, or employee benefit plan. In addition, the Board of Directors of Symetra Life may, by resolution, extend such further indemnification to an officer or such other person as it may seem fair and reasonable in view of all relevant circumstances.

Under certain Director and Officer Indemnification Agreements (“Agreement(s)”) between Symetra Life’s parent company, Symetra Financial Corporation, and directors and/or certain officers of Symetra Life (“Indemnitees”), Symetra Financial Corporation indemnifies and holds harmless Indemnitees, to the full extent permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware in effect at the time the Agreement is effective or as such laws may from time to time be amended, against all Indemnifiable Losses related to, resulting from or arising out of any Claim (subject to certain exceptions) where:

• “Claim” means any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, or any inquiry or investigation, whether instituted, made or conducted by Symetra Financial Corporation or any other party, including without limitation any governmental entity, that an Indemnitee determines might lead to the institution of any such action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative, investigative or other;

• “Expenses” includes all direct and indirect costs and expenses of any type whatsoever (including without limitation all attorneys’ and experts’ fees, expenses and charges) and all other costs, expenses and obligations actually and reasonably paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in or participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to investigate, defend, be a witness in or participate in, any Claim; and

8

• “Indemnifiable Losses” means any and all Expenses, damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including without limitation all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of any of the foregoing) (collectively, “Losses”) relating to, resulting from or arising out of any Claim by reason of the fact that (i) Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of Symetra Financial Corporation and/or of a subsidiary of Symetra Financial Corporation; or (ii) Indemnitee is or was serving at the request of Symetra Financial Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, non-profit organization, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of Symetra Life pursuant to such provisions of the bylaws, statutes, agreements, or otherwise, Symetra Life has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in said Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by Symetra Life or Symetra Financial Corporation of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of Symetra Life in the successful defense of any such action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the contracts issued by the Separate Account, Symetra Life will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in said Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
