B. Application and Initial Premium Processing

Upon receipt of a completed application, Symetra will follow the following procedures to evaluate the risk and determine insurability. Standard underwriting may involve medical examinations and may require further information from the proposed Insured before a determination can be made. Established underwriting standards and in accordance with state insurance laws, which prohibit unfair discrimination among Owners, but recognize that premiums must be based upon factors such as the insured’s age, health or occupation. A Policy will not be issued until underwriting procedures have been completed and premium received. Premium is not due until underwriting procedures have been completed and if we receive a premium payment prior to this time, we will return to you an amount equal to the Premium. No interest will be paid. The effective date of the Policy is dependent upon the completion of all underwriting requirements, payment of the initial premium and Company defined “delivery” of the Policy.

C. Premium Allocation & Right To Examine Period

On the Policy application, the Owner designates how premiums under the Policy should be allocated. The Owner may choose to allocate the premiums in one or more of the available portfolios and/or the Symetra

Fixed Account. The Symetra Fixed Account provides a fixed interest rate guarantee provided by Symetra's general account. See also the “Notice of Cancellation Period” subsection of the “Premiums” section of the prospectus.

D. Lapse Policy

Lapse. If you have not purchased the “Lapse Protection Rider,” Your Policy will lapse only if your Net Cash Surrender Value is insufficient to pay Monthly Deductions. We will allow you a 62 day grace period to pay the amount owed.If sufficient payment is not received by the end of the grace period, the Policy will terminate without value (“lapse”). If the Insured dies during the grace period, we will deduct accrued daily deductions and any loans and loan interest due from the death benefits proceeds payable.

E. Misstatement of Age or Sex

If the age or sex (if permitted by state law) of the insured has been incorrectly stated, the death benefit will be adjusted to reflect the death benefit that would have been purchased at the correct age or sex using the cost of insurance rate in effect when the Policy was issued.

F. Suicide

In the event the insured commits suicide, whether sane or insane, within two years from the Policy Date, the amount of death benefit will be limited to the Policy Value minus any accrued monthly deductions and outstanding loans and loaned interest owed to us. All amounts will be calculated as of the date of death.

G. Incontestability

The Policy is incontestable after it has been in force for two years from the issue date during the lifetime of the insured. Any reinstatement of a Policy's premium schedule is incontestable only after it has been in force during the lifetime of the insured for two years after the effective date of the reinstatement.

TRANSFERS

See the transfers-related subsections under the “Investment Options” section of the prospectus.

Transfer Rules

A transfer is considered any single request to move assets between one or more portfolios. Subject to restrictions during the "right to examine period", you may transfer Policy value from one Portfolio to another, from the portfolios to the Fixed Account, or from the Symetra Fixed Account to any Portfolio. Any transfers in excess of twelve in the same Policy year may be charged an amount not to exceed $25.00 per transfer.
