Exhibit 10.1(C)

Portions marked [***] have been omitted pursuant to a Confidential Treatment Request by Symetra Financial Corporation, this information has been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Effective as of August 1, 2011, Company is amending the current Sales Agreement for fixed products between Agency and Company by replacing Agency’s current commission schedule for fixed annuitization with this schedule, LSA655ch 08/2011.

Symetra Life Insurance Company

Annuity Base Commission Schedule

 

Fixed Annuitization Payment Schedule

Base commissions will be paid on fixed annuitization payouts of fixed contracts, except on annuitization of contracts originally issued by WM Life Insurance Company or American States Life Insurance Company, or on annuitization of Safekey I, II, and III contracts.

Base commissions will be paid as a percentage of the amount applied to an annuity option, as follows:

Contracts annuitized while in surrender – [***]

Contracts annuitized after the termination of the surrender schedule – [***]

 

Repayment of Commissions

Agency will repay Company commissions, not to exceed amount paid to Agency, if the fixed annuitization payout is reversed for any reason. Repayments under this schedule will be netted against any compensation owed to Agency by Company with respect to other products offered by Company.

If the commission repayments owed by Agency to Company exceed the compensation payable to Agency, Agency will immediately pay Company the commission repayments owed to Company.

THIS SCHEDULE MAY BE MODIFIED OR CANCELED BY COMPANY AT ANY TIME BY PROVIDING WRITTEN NOTICE. THIS SCHEDULE SUPERSEDES ANY PREVIOUS VERSION OF THE FIXED ANNUITIZATION BASE COMMISSION SCHEDULE.
