PRELIMINARY INFORMATION Custom 7 Annuity Individual Modified Single-Premium Fixed Deferred Annuity This document reviews important points to think about before you buy a First Symetra National Life Insurance Company of New York annuity. This is a modified single premium annuity, which means you submit an initial Purchase Payment and then may submit subsequent Purchase Payments within the first 12 months of the contract date. It is a fixed deferred annuity, which means the annuity earns interest at rates specified by us, with payouts beginning on a future date. This annuity is tax-deferred, which means you do not pay taxes on the interest it earns until the money is paid to you. You can use an annuity to save money for retirement and to receive retirement income for life. It is not meant to be used to meet short-term financial goals . If you have questions about this annuity, please contact your Insurance Producer, broker, or contact a company representative at 1-800-796-3872. THE ANNUITY CONTRACT How will the value of my annuity grow? You select an initial guaranteed interest period on the contract application. The initial guaranteed interest period begins on the contract date and lasts through the guaranteed period chosen. Each Purchase Payment will be credited with the effective interest rate on the date we receive the payment. The rate in effect on the contract date will apply to the initial Purchase Payment during the initial guaranteed interest period. Any subsequent Purchase Payment will be credited with the interest rate in effect on the date we receive the subsequent payment. The interest rates in effect for subsequent Purchase Payments will be credited for the remainder of the initial guaranteed interest period that is already in progress. Starting on the contract anniversary following the initial guaranteed interest period, we may adjust the effective interest rate that applies to your contract value. The adjusted rate will apply to the contract value for no less than 12 months. From then on, we will not adjust the effective interest rate more frequently than every 12 months. When you stop making Purchase Payments, we will continue to credit the balance of the contract value with the current renewal effective interest rate, which will never be lower than the guaranteed minimum interest rate. We establish the annual effective interest rates that apply to Purchase Payments. We credit interest on each purchase payment from the day following the receipt of your payment up through the date you withdraw the funds from your contract. Annual effective interest rates show the effect of daily compounding of interest over a 12-month period. The account value of your annuity will not decrease unless withdrawals or any applicable charges and fees are taken. BENEFITS How do I get income (payouts) from my annuity? To start the income phase of your annuity, you must notify us in writing at least 30 days prior to the date you want the payouts to begin, and you must choose a payout option. Your payout options include: Life Annuity: Guarantees income for as long as you live. Life Annuity with Guaranteed Period: Guarantees income for as long as you live. If you die within the “guaranteed period” (usually 5-20 years) your beneficiary receives payouts for the remainder of the period. Joint and Survivor Life Annuity: Guarantees income for as long as you or your joint annuitants live. Symetra® is a registered service mark of Symetra Life Insurance Company. Symetra Life Insurance Company, not a licensed insurer in New York, is the parent company of First Symetra National Life Insurance Company of New York.

Ed. 2 7/2012

Payments Based on a Number of Years: Pays income for a specific number of years. This option is available if your contract value is $25,000 or more. Automatic Option: If you do not choose a payout option at least 30 days before the latest date allowed under this Contract, we will make annuity payments under the Life Annuity with Guaranteed Period payout annuity option. The guaranteed period will be equal to 10 years, unless a shorter period is otherwise required. After your first contract year, you may change both the date you want payouts to begin and the payout option up until the date payouts begin. After payouts begin, you cannot make any changes. What happens after I die? If you are the owner of the annuity and you die before payouts begin, the death benefit may be paid in a single sum distribution, a series of payments, or payments under an annuity option offered in the Contract, subject to the restrictions described in the Contract, or required by law. If you are the owner of the annuity and you die after payouts have begun, the death benefit amount and the way it is paid will depend on the payout option previously selected by you.

CHARGES AND TAXES What happens if I take out some or all of the money from my annuity? Before payouts begin, you can take out all of your annuity’s value (full surrender) or part of it (partial surrender). Each withdrawal must be at least $500. If any withdrawal reduces the contract value to less than $2,000, the remaining balance will also be withdrawn and the Contract will be terminated. To take withdrawals or surrender your Contract, you must send a written request to our Home Office. We take a Surrender Charge from amounts you withdraw in any Contract Year that exceed 10% of the annuity fund value. The Surrender Charge is based on the following percentages: If withdrawal is Taken During Contract Year: The Surrender Charge is:

1 8%

2 8%

3 7%

4 7%

5 6%

6 5%

7 4%

8+ 0%

Example: If you withdraw $5,000.00 from your annuity in the fifth contract year your Surrender Charge is $5000.00 x 0.06 = $300.00. If you take a withdrawal after the end of the seventh contract year, there is no Surrender Charge.

The types of withdrawals that are not subject to Surrender Charges include: 

  

repetitive withdrawals, if the withdrawals are equal or substantially equal and are expected to deplete the contract value over your life expectancy or the joint life expectancies of you and your joint Owner (or, if applicable, you and your Beneficiary). However, if you take additional withdrawals or otherwise modify or stop the repetitive withdrawals, the repetitive withdrawals taken during the Contract Year will be included when determining whether more than 10% of the contract value has been withdrawn; annuity payments; withdrawals taken on account of your death; and withdrawals taken after you have been confined to a hospital or nursing home for 30 consecutive days if:  the confinement begins after the contract date; and  the withdrawal is taken within 60 days after confinement ends.

If you are confined to a hospital or nursing home on the contract date, you are not eligible for this waiver of Surrender Charges until after the first contract year. Do I pay any other fees or charges? A $25.00 ‘annual systematic charge’ will be deducted on each contract anniversary if in the prior Contract Year, you received more than one repetitive withdrawal or more than one annuity payment from the ‘Payment Based on a Number of Years’ payout option. This fee will be waived if such payments were made by electronic funds transfer. How will payouts and withdrawals from my annuity be taxed? This annuity is tax-deferred, which means that you don’t pay taxes on the interest it earns until the money is paid to you. When you take payouts, or make a withdrawal you may pay ordinary income taxes on the earned interest. You may also pay a 10% federal income tax penalty on distributions you receive before age 59 ½. If your state imposes a premium tax, it will be included in the cost of your annuity. Premium tax does not apply to contracts issued in New York. It is recommended that you seek the counsel of your attorney, accountant or other qualified financial advisor regarding annuity taxation as it applies to you. RSC-0329/NY/PI 10/11

You can exchange one tax-deferred annuity for another without paying taxes on the earnings when you make the exchange. Before you do, compare the benefits, features, and costs of the two annuities. You may pay a Surrender Charge if you make the exchange during the surrender charge period. Also, you may pay a surrender charge if you make withdrawals from the new annuity during the first years you own it. Does buying an annuity in a retirement plan provide extra tax benefits? Buying an annuity within an IRA, 401(k), or other tax deferred retirement plan doesn’t give you any extra tax benefits. Choose your annuity based on its other features and benefits as well as its risks and costs, not its tax benefits. OTHER INFORMATION What else do I need to know? Changes to your contract We may change your annuity contract from time to time to follow federal or state laws and regulations. If we do, we will tell you about the changes in writing. Compensation We pay the Insurance Producer, broker, or firm for selling the annuity to you. Free Look The contract may be returned to us or the Insurance Producer who sold you this contract within 30 days from the date you receive it for a full refund of your purchase payment.

TRUSTEE CERTIFICATION AND DISCLOSURE Under section 72(u) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), a trust that holds a non qualified deferred annuity contract may be taxed each year on the increase in the contract’s value regardless of whether contract earnings are withdrawn or distributed. Furthermore, tax treatment otherwise accorded to the holder of an annuity contract may be unavailable. An exception may apply if a trust holds an annuity contract as an “agent for a natural person” (i.e., an individual) as provided under the Code and applicable regulations. If you are unsure about the status of your trust, you should consult your legal advisor before completing this form. Do not send a copy of the trust document to First Symetra National Life Insurance Company of New York (“First Symetra”). This document will be used to certify that the contract is being held by a trust as agent for a natural person (unless the trust is a charitable remainder trust) and to verify the trustee(s) who is (are) authorized to act for the trust that owns the First Symetra annuity contract.
