A rider is a provision of the annuity with potential benefits and features that should never be confused with the annuity itself. Before evaluating the benefits of a rider, carefully examine the annuity to which it is attached. Products, riders, endorsements, features, terms and conditions may vary by state and may not be available in all U.S. states or any U.S. territory. Annuity contracts have terms and limitations for keeping them in force. Contact your financial professional or insurance producer for complete details. 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. The indexed accounts with enhanced participation rate will incur an annual charge that will reduce the contract value, and do not guarantee performance any greater than the indexed accounts without a charge.
Indexed interest is calculated and credited (if applicable) at the end of an interest term. Amounts withdrawn from the indexed account before the end of an interest term will not receive indexed interest for that term.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 include the payment or reinvestment of dividends in the calculation of its performance. 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. Market value adjustment does not apply in CA. 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. “Bloomberg ® ” and US Intermediate Corporate Bond Index are service marks of Bloomberg Finance L.P. and its affiliates, including Bloomberg Index Services Limited (“BISL”), the administrator of the index (collectively, “Bloomberg”) and have been licensed for use for certain purposes by Symetra Life Insurance Company. Bloomberg is not affiliated with Symetra Life Insurance Company, and Bloomberg does not approve, endorse, review, or recommend Symetra Edge Elite Fixed Indexed Annuity. Bloomberg does not guarantee the timeliness, accurateness, or completeness of any data or information relating
to Symetra Edge Elite Fixed Indexed Annuity. 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 contracts 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 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 income payment options. Contracts not owned for the benefit of natural persons, e.g., contracts owned by trusts, corporations or certain other entities, are generally not treated as annuities for federal income tax purposes and any interest are taxed as ordinary income in the current year. Exceptions may apply. Prospective Owners that are not natural persons should consult their tax professionals before purchasing the Contract. 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. The contract provides a guaranteed minimum value upon surrender, death, or annuitization.
