The minimum dollar amounts are shown on the contract data page. If you stop making Purchase Payments, all benefits under this Contract continue until the contract value is completely withdrawn. Purchase Payments must be in lawful currency of the United States and submitted to our Administrative Office at [P.O. Box 3882, Seattle, WA 98124-3882], or in a manner agreed to by First Symetra.

If we do not accept a Purchase Payment, we will return it within five business days. ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS Your initial Purchase Payment will be allocated according to your instructions on your 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). Once we receive your Purchase Payment, the allocation to the Portfolios is effective and valued as of the next close of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). If for any reason the NYSE is closed when we receive your Purchase Payment, it will be valued as of the close of the NYSE on its next regular business day. When we are required to guarantee a return of Purchase Payments during the Right to Examine period, we reserve the right to initially apply amounts to the [Fidelity VIP Money Market Initial Class] as shown on the cover page of this Contract.

ACCUMULATION UNITS When you make Purchase Payments or transfers into a Sub-account, we credit your Contract with Accumulation Units. Similarly, when you request a withdrawal or a transfer of money from a Sub-account, Accumulation Units are liquidated. In either case, the increase or decrease in the number of your Accumulation Units is determined by taking the dollar amount of the Purchase Payment, transfer, or withdrawal and dividing it by the value of an Accumulation Unit on the date the transaction occurs. We calculate the value of an Accumulation Unit for each Portfolio after the NYSE closes each day. To determine the current Accumulation Unit value, we take the prior day’s Accumulation Unit value and multiply it by the Net Investment Factor for the current day. The Net Investment Factor is used to measure the daily change in Accumulation Unit value for each Sub-account. The Net Investment Factor equals: · the net asset value per share of a Sub-account at the end of the current day plus the per share amount of any dividend or income distributions made by the Sub-account that day; divided by · the net asset value per share of a Sub-account at the end of the prior day plus the per share amount of any dividend or income distributions made by the Sub-account that day; minus · the daily insurance charges, expressed as a percentage of the total net assets of the Sub-account. The value of an Accumulation Unit will usually go up or down from day to day.
