Guarantees and benefits are subject to the claims-paying ability of Symetra Life Insurance Company.

Symetra Edge Elite has fixed and indexed accounts. Interest credited to the indexed accounts is affected by the value of outside indexes. Values based on the performance of any index are not guaranteed. The contract does not directly participate in any outside investment.

Indexed interest is calculated and credited (if applicable) at the end of an annual interest term. Amounts withdrawn from the indexed account before the end of an annual interest term will not receive indexed interest for that term.

If the contract is being funded with multiple purchase payments, e.g., 1035 exchanges, funds will be held and the contract will not be issued until all purchase payments have been received. Interest is not credited between the dates the purchase payments are received and the date the contract is issued. The purchase payment will begin to earn interest (if any) when the contract is issued.

Except for the JPMorgan ETF Efficiente® 5 Index and the Putnam Dynamic Low Volatility Excess Return Index, the performance of an index does not reflect the payment or reinvestment of dividends.

It is not possible to invest in an index.

Symetra reserves the right to add or remove any index or indexed interest crediting method options. If any index is discontinued or if the calculation of any index is changed substantially, Symetra reserves the right to substitute a comparable index.

A market value adjustment feature (MVA) is a positive or negative adjustment that may apply when all or when a portion of the contract value is withdrawn. The MVA will not apply to free withdrawal amounts. It may also apply upon death or annuitization but only if it results in a cash surrender value higher than the contract value that would otherwise be paid. A negative MVA will never cause the cash surrender value to be less than the guaranteed minimum value. After the withdrawal charge period, no MVA applies.

If the MVA reference rate is not published for a particular day, Symetra will use the MVA reference rate as of the prior business day. If the MVA reference rate is no longer available or discontinued, Symetra may substitute another comparable method for determining the MVA reference rate.

Withdrawals may be subject to federal income taxes, and a 10% IRS early withdrawal tax penalty may also apply for amounts taken prior to age 59½. Consult your attorney or tax professional for more information.

Tax-qualified accounts such as IRAs, 401(k)s, etc., are tax-deferred regardless of whether or not they are funded with an annuity. If you are considering funding a tax-qualified retirement plan or account with an annuity, you should know that an annuity does not provide any additional tax-deferred treatment of earnings beyond the tax-qualified plan or program itself. However, annuities do provide other features and benefits such as death benefits and annuity payment options.

Neither Symetra Life Insurance Company nor its employees provide investment, tax, or legal advice or endorse any particular method of investing. Please consult your attorney or tax professional before making savings and investing decision.
