Commission Schedule Terms and Conditions

Terms

1. Commissions are payable on premiums paid to the Company. Basic and Renewal commissions are vested and constitute full compensation to the designated writing agency. The writing agency will be paid all Basic and Renewal Commissions which are calculated according to the Commission Schedule Individual Life Policies Endorsement Form included in this contract. There may be a maximum of two writing agencies per coverage. Basic and renewal commissions for any increase in coverage are paid to the writing agency of that increase. When the balance due is less than a reasonable minimum sum, established by the Company, payments may be paid only as the minimum amount is reached.

2. To change the writing agency, written consent from the current writing agency must be submitted to the Company’s Home Office. The Company reserves the right through its Home Office to approve any such request and is not bound by such change until approved by the Company’s Home Office. The new writing agency is subject to the provisions in this agreement. The Company assumes no responsibility for the validity of the change of writing agency and the Company is held harmless with regard to any amount paid by it to the new writing agency. Any change of writing agency must comply with all applicable state laws and regulations. For those policies identified in writing as a part of the change in writing agency, the future compensation and all past, present and future obligations are transferred to the new writing agency.

3. Service fees are payable on premiums paid to the Company. Such Service Fees constitute full compensation to the designated servicing agency. The service fee is calculated according to the Commission Schedule Individual Life Policies Endorsement Form included in this contract. The servicing agency will be paid all the service fees. During the calendar years in which the Servicing Agency receives a minimum of $1,000.00 in first year commission for Individual Life policies service fees will be paid. When the balance due is less than a reasonable minimum sum, established by the Company, payments may be paid only as the minimum amount is reached.

4. The servicing agency may be designated by the policyowner or by the writing agency at the time of policy issue. Changing to a new servicing agency requires written consent from the policyowner to be submitted to the Company’s Home Office. The Company reserves the right through its Home Office to approve any such request and is not bound by such change until approved by the Company’s Home Office. If the servicing agency is not specifically designated then the writing agency will be the servicing agency.

5. Trail commissions, if applicable, are vested and payable to the writing agency of the original base policy.

In the event a policy terminates within 12 months of policy issue for any reason other than the death of the insured, including but not limited to a lapse or a rescission of the policy, Agency must repay 100 per cent of the commission previously paid on such policy and Symetra Life has the right to chargeback such commission.

8. In addition to commission payable, the Company may award to the writing agency Annual First Year Premium (AFYP) production credit. AFYP is a measurement of production that is equal to the required first year premium on an annual payment mode.
