Default Insurance

Has the sentence below been expressed clearly?

Within 5 years since purchase day, 2000 yuan Renminbi will be back to the purchaser. Afterwards, the insurer will increase 20% of the refund per 5 years based on the 2000-yuan benchmark.

What about?

Within 5 years of the purchase date, the purchaser will receive a 2000 yuan Renminbi refund, which will then increase 20% per 5 years, based on the 2000-yuan benchmark.
