NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1-Organization

First Investors Life Variable Annuity Fund A ("Separate Account A", the "Separate Account") is a separate account of Nassau Life Insurance Company ("NNY", the "Company", "we" or "us"). NNY, domiciled in the State of New York, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Nassau Companies of New York ("NCNY" or the "Parent") and an indirect subsidiary of Nassau Financial Group, L.P. ("Nassau"). Nassau is a financial services company providing life insurance and annuities, reinsurance and asset management.

The Separate Account is registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940. As directed by the owners, amounts directed to each subaccount are invested in a designated mutual fund as follows:

Delaware VIP Fund Series portfolios:

Fund for Income.

NNY and the Separate Account are subject to regulation by the New York Department of Financial Services and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ( SEC ). The assets and liabilities of the Separate Account are clearly identified and distinguished from NNY's other asset and liabilities.

Note 2-Additions, Mergers, Liquidations and Name Changes

A. Additions

There were no fund additions in 2022 or 2023.

B. Mergers

There were no fund mergers in 2022 or 2023.

C. Liquidations

There were no fund liquidations in 2022 or 2023.

D. Name Changes

There were no name changes in 2022 or 2023.

Note 3-Significant Accounting Policies

Investment Valuation

Investments in mutual fund shares are carried in the statements of net assets at market value (net asset value of the underlying mutual fund). Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized capital gains and losses on sales of investments are determined based on the average cost of investments sold. The difference between cost and current market value of investments owned on the day of measurement is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments.

Market Risk

Each subaccount invests in shares of a single underlying fund. The investment performance of each subaccount will reflect the investment performance of the underlying fund less separate account expenses. There is no assurance that the investment objective of any underlying fund will be met. A fund calculates a daily net asset value per share ("NAV") which is based on the market value of its investment portfolio. The amount of risk varies significantly between subaccounts. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment portfolios, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment portfolios will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect contract holder's investments in the funds and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets. The contract holder assumes all of the investment performance risk for the subaccounts selected.

Reinvestment of Dividends

Dividend and capital gain distributions paid by the mutual funds to the Separate Account are reinvested in additional shares of each respective fund. Dividend income and capital gain distributions are recorded as income on the ex-dividend date.

Note 3-Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price).

The Separate Account invests in shares of open-end mutual funds, which process contract holders directed purchases, sales and transfers on a daily basis at the funds' computed net asset values (NAVs). The fair value of the Separate Account's assets is based on the NAVs of mutual funds, which are obtained from the custodians and reflect the fair values of the mutual fund investments. The NAV is calculated daily and is based on the fair values of the underlying securities.

Because the fund provides liquidity for the investments through purchases and redemptions at NAV, this may represent the fair value of the investment in the fund. That is, for an open-ended mutual fund, the fair value of an investment in the fund would not be expected to be higher than the amount that a new investor would be required to spend in order to directly invest in the mutual fund. Similarly, the hypothetical seller of the investment would not be expected to accept less in proceeds than it could receive by directly redeeming its investment with the fund.

The Separate Account measures the fair value of its investment in the Fund on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:

•

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Separate Account has the ability to access.

•

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument in an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data.

•

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent observable inputs are not available, representing the Separate Account's own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the assets or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

Investments in Fund shares are valued using the reported net asset value of the Funds at the end of each New York Stock Exchange business day, as determined by the Funds. Investments held by the Separate Account are Level 1 within the hierarchy. There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Federal Income Taxes

The operations of the Separate Account are included in the federal income tax return of NNY, which is taxed as a life insurance company under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Under the current provisions of the IRC, NNY does not expect to incur federal income taxes on the earnings of the Separate Account to the extent the earnings are credited under contracts. Based on this, no charge is being made currently to the Separate Account for federal income taxes. NNY will review periodically the status of this policy in the event of changes in the tax law.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In applying these estimates and assumptions, management makes subjective and complex judgments that frequently require assumptions about matters that are uncertain and inherently subject to change such as the possibility for elevated mortality rates and market volatility.

Note 4-Purchases and Proceeds from Sales of Investments

The cost of purchases totaled $161,880 and proceeds from sales totaled $820,845 for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Note 5-Related Party Transactions and Charges and Deductions

Related Party Transactions

NNY and its affiliate, 1851 Securities, Inc. ("1851 Securities"), provide services to the Separate Account. NNY is the insurer who provides the contract benefits as well as administrative and contract maintenance services to the Separate Account. 1851 Securities, a registered broker/dealer, is the principal underwriter and distributor for the Separate Account.

Charges and Deductions

NNY makes deductions from the contract to compensate for the various expenses in selling, maintaining, underwriting and issuing the contracts and providing guaranteed insurance benefits.

Certain charges are deducted from the contracts as a daily reduction in Unit Value. The charges are included in a separate line item entitled "Mortality and administrative expense" in the accompanying statement of operations. Other periodic charges are taken out as a transaction on a monthly basis. Those charges appear on the statement of changes in net assets on line "Contract Maintenance Charges". The contract charges are described below:

A. Contract Maintenance Charges

The Separate Account is assessed periodic Contract Maintenance Charges which are designed to compensate NNY for certain costs associated with maintenance. The charges assessed to the Separate Account for Contract Maintenance Charges are outlined as follows:

Administration Charge - In accordance with terms of the contracts, NNY may make deductions for administrative charges of $7.50 from the accumulated value of the contract, which have an Accumulated Value of less than $1,500 due to partial surrenders and would be assessed through the redemption of units.

B. Daily M&E and Administrative Fees

As mentioned above, these fees are typically deducted daily from policy value allocated to the variable subaccounts. These expenses are included in a separate line item "Mortality and administrative expense" in the accompanying statements of operations. This expense is reflected as a daily reduction of unit values. NNY deducts an amount equal on an annual basis to .75% of the daily net asset value of the Separate Account.

NNY may deduct other charges depending on the policy terms.

Note 6-Summary of Unit Transactions

The net decrease in units of 61,295 during 2023 is comprised of 0 units issued and 61,295 units redeemed. The net decrease in units of 29,042 during 2022 is comprised of 703 units issued and 60,246 units redeemed.

Note 7-Financial Highlights (Continued)

1

These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the subaccount from the underlying mutual fund, divided by the average net assets. These ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense charges, that are assessed against contract owner accounts either through reductions in unit values or redemption of units. The recognition of investment income by the subaccount is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying fund in which the subaccount invests.

2

These amounts represent the annualized contract expenses of the separate account, consisting primarily of mortality and expense charges, for the periods indicated. These ratios include only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values. Charges made directly to contract owner accounts through redemption of units and expenses of the underlying fund have been excluded.

3

These amounts represent the total return for the periods indicated, including changes in value of the underlying fund, and expenses assessed through the reduction of unit values. These ratios do not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units.

Note 8-Subsequent Events

The Separate Account has performed an evaluation of subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that no items require recognition or disclosure.
