MODIFIED SINGLE PREMIUM
VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE CONTRACTS
3100 SANDERS ROAD
NORTHBROOK, IL 60062
TELEPHONE (800) 755-5275
------------------------
This prospectus describes the "Glenbrook Provider Variable Life," a modified
single premium variable life insurance contract ("Contract") offered by
Glenbrook Life and Annuity Company (the "Company") for prospective insured
persons age 0-85. The Contract lets the Contract Owner pay a significant single
premium and subject to restrictions, additional premiums.
The Contracts are modified endowment contracts for federal income tax purposes,
except in certain cases described under "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23. A
LOAN, DISTRIBUTION OR OTHER AMOUNT RECEIVED FROM A MODIFIED ENDOWMENT CONTRACT
DURING THE LIFE OF THE INSURED WILL BE TAXED TO THE EXTENT OF ANY ACCUMULATED
INCOME IN THE CONTRACT. ANY AMOUNTS THAT ARE TAXABLE WITHDRAWALS WILL BE SUBJECT
TO A 10% ADDITIONAL TAX, WITH CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS.
The minimum initial premium the Company will accept is $10,000. Premiums are
allocated to Glenbrook Life Variable Life Separate Account A ("Variable
Account"). The Variable Account will invest in shares of one or more managed
investment companies ("Funds") each of which will have multiple investment
Portfolios. All of the Funds which are described in this prospectus may not be
available with your Contract. Presently, the Variable Account will invest in
shares of the following Funds:
- Dean Witter Variable Investment Series ("Dean Witter Fund")
- Dreyfus Variable Investment Fund and The Dreyfus Socially Responsible
Growth Fund, Inc. (collectively the "Dreyfus Funds")
- Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Fund and Fidelity Variable Insurance
Products Fund II (collectively the "Fidelity Funds")
- MFS-Registered Trademark- Variable Insurance Trust ("MFS Fund")
- Twentieth Century Companies, Inc., TCI Portfolios, Inc. ("TCI Funds")
The DEAN WITTER FUND has four available Portfolios: (1) VIS Dividend Growth (2)
VIS European Growth (3) VIS Quality Income Plus and (4) VIS Utilities; the
DREYFUS FUNDS have four available Portfolios: (1) VIF Growth and Income (2) VIF
Money Market (3) The Dreyfus Socially Responsible Growth Fund, Inc. and (4) VIF
Small Company Stock; the FIDELITY FUNDS have three available Portfolios: (1) VIP
II Contrafund (2) VIP Growth and (3) VIP High Income; the MFS FUND has two
available Portfolios: (1) Emerging Growth Series and (2) Limited Maturity
Series; and the TCI FUNDS "Twentieth Century" have two available Portfolios: (1)
TCI Balanced and (2) TCI International.
There is no guaranteed minimum Account Value for a Contract. The Account Value
of a Contract will vary up or down to reflect the investment experience of the
Portfolios to which premiums have been allocated. The Contract Owner bears the
investment risk for all amounts so allocated. The Contract continues in effect
while the Cash Surrender Value is sufficient to pay the monthly charges under
the Contract ("Monthly Deduction Amount").
The Contracts provide for an Initial Death Benefit shown on the Contract Data
page. The death benefit ("Death Benefit") payable under a Contract may be
greater than the Initial Death Benefit but so long as the Contract continues in
effect, if no withdrawals are made, will never be less than the Initial Death
Benefit. The Account Value will, and under certain circumstances the Death
Benefit of the Contract may, increase or decrease based on the investment
experience of the Portfolios to which premiums have been allocated. At the death
of the Insured, we will pay a Death Benefit to the beneficiary.
IT MAY NOT BE ADVANTAGEOUS TO PURCHASE VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE AS A REPLACEMENT
FOR YOUR CURRENT LIFE INSURANCE OR IF YOU ALREADY OWN A VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE
CONTRACT.

SUMMARY
NOTE: A GLOSSARY OF SPECIAL TERMS USED IN THIS PROSPECTUS APPEARS AT PAGE 6,
IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THIS SUMMARY.
THE CONTRACT
The Contracts are life insurance contracts with death benefits, cash values, and
other traditional life insurance features. The Contracts are "variable." Unlike
the fixed benefits of ordinary whole life insurance, the Account Value will
increase or decrease based on the investment experience of the investment
Portfolios of the Funds to which premiums have been allocated. Similarly, the
Death Benefit may increase or decrease under some circumstances, but so long as
the Contract remains in effect it will not decrease below the Initial Death
Benefit if no withdrawals are made. The Contracts are credited with units
("Accumulation Units") to calculate cash values. The Contract Owner may transfer
the Account Value among the Variable Account's underlying investment Portfolios.
The Contracts can be issued on a single life or "last survivor" basis. For a
discussion of how last survivor Contracts operate differently from single life
Contracts, see "Last Survivor Contracts," page 18.
In some states, the Contracts may be issued in the form of a group Contract. In
those states, certificates will be issued evidencing a purchaser's rights under
the group Contract. In certain states, certificates are issued under group
Contracts issued to the Financial Services Group Insurance Trust, an Illinois
Trust. The terms "Contract" and "Contract Owner", as used in this Prospectus,
refer to and include such a certificate and certificate owner, respectively.
THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT AND THE FUNDS
The Glenbrook Life Variable Life Separate Account A ("Variable Account") funds
the variable life insurance Contracts offered by this prospectus. The Variable
Account is a unit investment trust registered as such under the Investment
Company Act of 1940. It consists of multiple sub-accounts ("Variable
Sub-Accounts"), each investing in a corresponding Fund Portfolio.
Applicants should read the prospectuses for the Funds in connection with the
purchase of a Contract. The investment objectives of the Fund Portfolios are
briefly summarized below under "Funds," page 8. Presently, the Variable Account
invests in shares of the following Funds:
- Dean Witter Variable Investment Series ("Dean Witter Fund")
- Dreyfus Variable Investment Fund and The Dreyfus Socially Responsible
Growth Fund, Inc. (collectively the "Dreyfus Funds")
- Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Fund and Fidelity Variable Insurance
Products Fund II (collectively the "Fidelity Funds")
- MFS-Registered Trademark- Variable Insurance Trust ("MFS Fund")
- Twentieth Century Companies, Inc., TCI Portfolios, Inc. ("TCI Funds")
The DEAN WITTER FUND has four available Portfolios: (1) VIS Dividend Growth (2)
VIS European Growth (3) VIS Quality Income Plus and (4) VIS Utilities; the
DREYFUS FUNDS have four available Portfolios: (1) VIF Growth and Income (2) VIF
Money Market (3) The Dreyfus Socially Responsible Growth Fund, Inc. and (4) VIF
Small Company Stock; the FIDELITY FUNDS have three available Portfolios: (1) VIP
II Contrafund (2) VIP Growth and (3) VIP High Income; the MFS FUND has two
available Portfolios: (1) Emerging Growth Series and (2) Limited Maturity
Series; and the TCI FUNDS "Twentieth Century" have two available Portfolios: (1)
TCI Balanced and (2) TCI International.
The assets of each Portfolio are accounted for separately from the other
Portfolios and each has distinct investment objectives and policies which are
described in the accompanying prospectuses for the Funds.
PREMIUMS
The Contract requires the Contract Owner to pay an initial premium of at least
$10,000. Additional premium payments may be made at any time, subject to the
following conditions:
- only one payment is allowed in any Contract Year;
- the minimum payment is $500;
- the attained age of the insured must be less than age 86; and
- absent submission of new evidence of insurability of the insured, the
maximum additional payment permitted in a Contract Year is the "Guaranteed
Additional Payment." The Guaranteed Additional Payment is the lesser of
$5,000 or a percentage of the initial payment (5% for attained ages 40-70,
and 0% for attained ages 20-39 and 71-80).
Additional premium payments may require an increase in the Specified Amount in
order for the Contract to meet the definition of a life insurance contract under
the Internal Revenue Code. The Company reserves the right to obtain satisfactory
evidence of insurabilty before accepting any
<PAGE>
5
additional premium payments requiring an increase in Specified Amount. However,
we reserve the right to reject an additional premium payment for any reason.
Additional Premiums may also be paid at any time and in any amount necessary to
avoid termination of the Contract.
DEDUCTIONS AND CHARGES
On each Monthly Activity Date, the Company will deduct a Monthly Deduction
Amount from the Account Value. The Monthly Deduction Amount will be made pro
rata respecting each Variable Sub-Account to which Account Value is allocated.
The Monthly Deduction Amount includes a cost of insurance charge, tax expense
charge and an administrative expense charge. The monthly cost of insurance
charge is to cover the Company's anticipated mortality costs. In addition, the
Company will deduct monthly from the Account Value a tax expense charge equal to
an annual rate of 0.40% for the first ten Contract Years. This charge
compensates the Company for premium taxes imposed by various states and local
jurisdictions and for federal taxes resulting from the application of Section
848 of the Code. The charge includes a premium tax deduction of 0.25% and a
federal tax deduction of 0.15%. The premium tax deduction represents an average
premium tax of 2.5% of premiums over ten years. The Company will deduct from the
Account Value a monthly administrative charge equal to an annual rate of 0.25%.
This charge compensates the Company for administrative expenses incurred in the
administration of the Variable Account and the Contracts. The Company will also
deduct from the Variable Account a daily charge equal to an annual rate of 0.90%
for the mortality risks and expense risks the Company assumes in relation to the
Contracts. If the Cash Surrender Value is not sufficient to cover a Monthly
Deduction Amount due on any Monthly Activity Date, the Contract may lapse. See
"Deductions and Charges -- Monthly Deductions," page 12, and "Contract Benefits
and Rights -- Lapse and Reinstatement," page 17.
An Annual Maintenance Fee of $35 will be deducted on each Contract Anniversary
from all Variable Sub-Accounts to which Account Value is allocated, in
proportion to the amounts so allocated. This fee will be waived if total
premiums paid are $50,000 or more. This fee will help reimburse the Company for
administrative and maintenance costs of the Contracts. See "Deductions and
Charges -- Other Deductions -- Annual Maintenance Fee," page 13.
Applicants should review the prospectuses for the Funds which accompany this
prospectus for a description of the charges and expenses borne by the Funds in
connection with their operations.
Withdrawals in excess of the Free Withdrawal Amount will be subject to a
withdrawal charge as set forth below:

</TABLE>
The Withdrawal Charge is imposed to cover a portion of the sales expense
incurred by the Company in distributing the Contracts. This expense includes
agents' commissions, advertising and the printing of prospectuses. See
"Deductions and Charges -- Other Deductions -- Withdrawal Charge," page 14. No
withdrawal charge will be imposed on any withdrawal to the extent that aggregate
Withdrawal Charges and the federal tax portion of the tax expense charge imposed
would otherwise exceed 9% of total premiums paid prior to the Withdrawal. See
"Deductions and Charges," page 12 and "Withdrawal Charge," page 14.
During the first nine Contract Years, an additional premium tax charge will be
imposed on full or partial withdrawals. This charge ranges from a maximum of
2.25% in the first Contract Year, decreasing .25% in each of the next nine
Contract Years, with no charge thereafter. See "Deductions and Charges -- Other
Deductions -- Due and Unpaid -- Premium Tax Charge," page 14.
For a discussion of the tax consequences of a full or a partial withdrawal, see
"Federal Tax Considerations," page 23.
DEATH BENEFIT
At the death of the Insured while the Contract is in force, we will pay the
Death Benefit (less any Indebtedness and certain due and unpaid Monthly
Deduction Amounts) to the beneficiary. The Death Benefit determined on the date
of the Insured's death is the greater of (1) the Specified Amount, or (2) the
Account Value multiplied by the death benefit ratio as found in the Contract.
See "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Death Benefit," page 15.
ACCOUNT VALUE
The Account Value of the Contract will increase or decrease to reflect (1) the
investment experience of the Fund
<PAGE>
6
Portfolios underlying the Variable Sub-Account to which Account Value is
allocated, and (2) deductions for the mortality and expense risk charge, the
Monthly Deduction Amount, and the Annual Maintenance Fee. There is no minimum
guaranteed Account Value and the Contract Owner bears the risk of the investment
in the Fund Portfolios. See "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Account Value,"
page 15.
CONTRACT LOANS
A Contract Owner may obtain one or both of two types of cash loans from the
Company. Both types of loans are secured by the Contract. The maximum amount
available for such loans is 90% of the Contract's Cash Value, less the amount of
all loans existing on the date of the loan request (including loan interest to
the next Contract Anniversary), less any Annual Maintenance Fee due on or before
the next Contract Anniversary, and less any due and unpaid Monthly Deduction
Amounts. See "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Contract Loans," page 16.
LAPSE
Under certain circumstances a Contract may terminate if the Cash Surrender Value
on any Monthly Activity Date is less than the required Monthly Deduction Amount.
The Company will give written notice to the Contract Owner and a 61 day grace
period during which additional amounts may be paid to continue the Contract. See
"Contract Benefits and Rights -- Contract Loans," page 16 and "Lapse and
Reinstatement," page 17.
CANCELLATION AND EXCHANGE RIGHTS
A Contract Owner has a limited right to return his or her Contract for
cancellation. If the Contract Owner returns the Contract for cancellation, by
mail or hand delivery, to the agent who sold the Contract, within 10 days after
delivery of the Contract to the Contract Owner (in some states, this free-look
period is longer), the Company will return to the Contract Owner within 7 days
thereafter the premiums paid for the Contract adjusted to reflect any investment
gain or loss resulting from allocation to the Variable Account prior to the date
of cancellation, unless state law requires a return of premium without such
adjustments. In those states where the Company is required to return the
premiums paid upon a free-look of the Contract and where it has been approved by
the state, the Company reserves the right to allocate all premium payments made
prior to the expiration of the free-look period to the money market sub-account
of the Variable Account.
In addition, once the Contract is in effect it may be exchanged during the first
24 months after its issuance for a permanent life insurance contract on the life
of the Insured without submitting proof of insurability. See "Contract Benefits
and Rights -- Cancellation and Exchange Rights," page 18.
TAX CONSEQUENCES
The current Federal tax law generally excludes all death benefit payments from
the gross income of the Contract beneficiary. The Contracts generally will be
treated as modified endowment contracts. This status does not affect the
Contracts' classification as life insurance, nor does it affect the exclusion of
death benefit payments from gross income. However, loans, distributions or other
amounts received under a modified endowment contract are taxed to the extent of
accumulated income in the Contract (generally, the excess of Account Value over
premiums paid) and may be subject to a 10% penalty tax. See "Federal Tax
Considerations," page 23.

Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board or any other agency.
An investment in the Dreyfus VIF Money Market Portfolio is neither insured nor
guaranteed by the U.S. Government. There can be no assurance that the Money
Market Portfolio will be able to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share.
All dividends and capital gains distributions from the Portfolios are
automatically reinvested in shares of the distributing Portfolio at their net
asset value.
There is no assurance that the Portfolios will attain their respective stated
objectives. Additional information concerning the investment objectives and
policies of the Portfolios can be found in the current prospectuses for the
Funds accompanying this prospectus.
You will find more complete information about the Portfolios, including the
risks associated with each Portfolio, in the accompanying prospectuses. You
should read the prospectuses for the Funds in conjunction with this prospectus.
THE FUND PROSPECTUSES SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE ANY DECISION IS MADE
CONCERNING THE ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS TO A PARTICULAR VARIABLE
SUB-ACCOUNT.
It is conceivable that in the future it may be disadvantageous for variable life
insurance separate accounts and variable annuity separate accounts to invest in
a Fund simultaneously. Although neither the Company nor any such Fund currently
foresees any such disadvantages either to variable life insurance or variable
annuity contract owners, each Fund's Board of Directors intends to monitor
events in order to identify any material conflicts between variable life and
variable annuity contract owners and to determine what action, if any, should be
taken in response thereto. If the Board of Directors were to conclude that
separate funds should be established for variable life and variable annuity
separate accounts, the Company will bear the attendant expenses.
All investment income of and other distributions to each Variable Sub-Account
arising from the corresponding Portfolio are reinvested in shares of that
Portfolio at net asset value. The income and both realized and unrealized gains
or losses on the assets of each Variable Sub-Account are therefore separate and
are credited to or charged against the Variable Sub-Account without regard to
income, gains or losses from any other Variable Sub-Account or from any other
business of the Company. The Company will purchase shares in the Funds in
connection with premiums allocated to the corresponding Variable Sub-Account in
accordance with Contract Owners' directions and will redeem shares in the Funds
to meet Contract obligations or make adjustments in reserves, if any. The
<PAGE>
10
Funds are required to redeem Fund shares at net asset value and to make payment
within seven days.
The Company reserves the right, subject to compliance with the law as then in
effect, to make additions to, deletions from, or substitutions for the Fund
shares underlying the Variable Sub-Accounts. If shares of any of the Funds
should no longer be available for investment, or if, in the judgment of the
Company's management, further investment in shares of any Fund should become
inappropriate in view of the purposes of the Contracts, the Company may
substitute shares of another Fund for shares already purchased, or to be
purchased in the future, under the Contracts. No substitution of securities will
take place without notice to Contract Owners and without prior approval of the
Securities and Exchange Commission to the extent required by the Investment
Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act"). The Company reserves the right to establish
additional Variable Sub-accounts of the Variable Account, each of which would
invest in shares of another Fund. Subject to Contract Owner approval, the
Company also reserves the right to end the registration under the 1940 Act of
the Variable Account or any other separate accounts of which it is the depositor
or to operate the Variable Account as a management company under the 1940 Act.
Each Fund is subject to certain investment restrictions and policies which may
not be changed without the approval of a majority of the shareholders of the
Fund. See the accompanying prospectuses for the Funds for further information.
THE CONTRACT
APPLICATION FOR A CONTRACT
Individuals wishing to purchase a Contract must submit an application to the
Company. A Contract will be issued only on the lives of Insureds age 0-85 who
supply evidence of insurability satisfactory to the Company. Acceptance is
subject to the Company's underwriting rules and the Company reserves the right
to reject an application for any lawful reason. If a Contract is not issued, the
premium will be returned to you . No change in the terms or conditions of a
Contract will be made without the consent of the Contract Owner.
Once the Company has received the initial premium and underwriting has been
approved, the Contract will be issued on the date the Company has received the
final requirement for issue. In the case of simplified underwriting, the
Contract will be issued or coverage denied within 3 business days of receipt of
premium. The Insured will be covered under the Contract, however, as of the
Contract Date. Since the Contract Date will generally be the date the Company
receives the initial premium, coverage under a Contract may begin before it is
actually issued. In addition to determining when coverage begins, the Contract
Date determines Monthly Activity Dates, Contract months, and Contract Years.
If the initial premium is over the limits established from time to time by the
Company ($1,000,000 as of the date of this Prospectus), the initial payment will
not be accepted with the application. In other cases where we receive the
initial payment with the application, we will provide fixed conditional
insurance during underwriting according to the terms of a conditional receipt.
The fixed conditional insurance will be the insurance applied for, up to a
maximum that varies by age.
PREMIUMS
The Contract is designed to permit an initial premium payment and, subject to
certain conditions, additional premium payments. The initial premium payment
purchases a Death Benefit initially equal to the Contract's Specified Amount.
The minimum initial payment is $10,000.
Under current underwriting rules, which are subject to change, proposed Insureds
are eligible for simplified underwriting without a medical examination if their
application responses and initial premium payment meet simplified underwriting
standards. Customary underwriting standards will apply to all other proposed
Insureds. The maximum initial premium currently permitted on a simplified
underwriting basis varies with the issue age of the insured according to the
following table:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
SIMPLIFIED UNDERWRITING
ISSUE AGE MAXIMUM INITIAL PREMIUM
- -------------------- ------------------------
<S> <C>
0-34................ Not available
35-44............... $ 15,000
45-54............... $ 30,000
55-64............... $ 50,000
65-80............... $ 100,000
Over age 80......... Not available
</TABLE>
Additional premium payments may be made at any time, subject to the following
conditions:
- only one additional premium payment may be made in any Contract Year;
- each additional premium payment must be at least $500;
- the attained age of the Insured must be less than age 86; and
<PAGE>
11
- absent submission of new evidence of insurability of the insured, the
maximum additional payment permitted in a Contract Year is the "Guaranteed
Additional Payment."
- the Guaranteed Additional Payment is the lesser of $5,000 or a percentage
of the initial payment (5% for attained ages 40-70, and 0% for attained
ages 20-39 and 71-80).
Additional premium payments may require an increase in Specified Amount in order
for the Contract to remain within the definition of a life insurance contract
under Section 7702 of the Code. The Company reserves the right to obtain
satisfactory evidence of insurability upon any additional premium payments
requiring an increase in Specified Amount. However, we reserve the right to
reject any additional premium payment for any reason.
Unless you request otherwise in writing, any additional premium payment received
while a Contract loan exists will be applied: first, as a repayment of
Indebtedness, and second, as an additional premium payment, subject to the
conditions described above.
Additional premiums may be paid at any time and in any amount necessary to avoid
termination of the Contract without evidence of insurability.
ALLOCATION OF PREMIUMS
Upon completion of underwriting, the Company will either issue a Contract, or
deny coverage and return all premiums. If a Contract is issued, the initial
premium payment, plus an amount equal to the interest that would have been
earned had the initial premium been invested in the Money Market Sub-Account
since the date of receipt of the premium, will be allocated on the date the
Contract is issued according to the initial premium allocation instructions
specified on the application. In the future, the Company may allocate the
initial premium (and the interest that would have been earned had the initial
premium been invested in the Money Market Sub-Account since its receipt) to the
Money Market Sub-Account during the free look period in those states where state
law requires premiums to be returned upon exercise of the free-look right.
ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUES
The Accumulation Unit Value for each Variable Sub-Account will vary to reflect
the investment experience of the corresponding Fund Portfolio and will be
determined on each Valuation Day by multiplying the Accumulation Unit Value of
the particular Variable Sub-Account on the preceding Valuation Day by a "Net
Investment Factor" for that Sub-Account for the Valuation Period then ended. The
Net Investment Factor for each Variable Sub-Account is determined by first
dividing (A) the net asset value per share of the corresponding Fund Portfolio
at the end of the current Valuation Period (plus the per share dividends or
capital gains by that Fund Portfolio if the ex-dividend date occurs in the
Valuation Period then ended), by (B) the net asset value per share of the
corresponding Fund Portfolio at the end of the immediately preceding Valuation
Period; and then subtracting from the result an amount equal to the daily
deductions for mortality and expense risk charges imposed during the Valuation
Period. Applicants should refer to the prospectuses for the Funds which
accompany this prospectus for a description of how the assets of each Fund are
valued since such determination has a direct bearing on the Accumulation Unit
Value of the corresponding Sub-Account and therefore the Account Value of a
Contract. See "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Account Value," page 15.
All valuations in connection with a Contract, e.g., with respect to determining
Account Value and Cash Surrender Value and in connection with Contract loans, or
calculation of Death Benefits, or with respect to determining the number of
Accumulation Units to be credited to a Contract with each premium, other than
the initial premium and additional premiums requiring underwriting, will be made
on the date the request or payment is received in good order by the Company at
its Home Office if such date is a Valuation Day; otherwise such determination
will be made on the next succeeding date which is a Valuation Day.
SPECIALIZED USES OF THE CONTRACT: Because the Contract provides for an
accumulation of cash value as well as a death benefit, the Contract can be used
for various individual and business financial planning purposes. Purchasing the
Contract in part for such purposes entails certain risks. For example, if the
investment performance of Sub-Accounts to which Account Value is allocated is
poorer than expected or if sufficient premiums are not paid, the Contract may
lapse or may not accumulate sufficient Account Value to fund the purpose for
which the Contract was purchased. Withdrawals and Contract loans may
significantly affect current and future Account Value, Cash Surrender Value, or
Death Benefit proceeds. Depending upon Sub-Account investment performance and
the amount of a Contract loan, the loan may cause a Contract to lapse. Because
the Contract is designed to provide benefits on a long-term basis, before
purchasing a Contract for a specialized purpose a purchaser should consider
whether the long-term nature of the Contract is consistent with the purpose for
which it is being considered. Using a Contract for a specialized purpose may
have tax consequences. (See "Federal Tax considerations," Page 23.)

DEDUCTIONS AND CHARGES
MONTHLY DEDUCTIONS
On each Monthly Activity Date including the Contract Date, the Company will
deduct from the Account Value attributable to the Variable Account an amount
("Monthly Deduction Amount") to cover charges and expenses incurred in
connection with a Contract. Each Monthly Deduction Amount will be deducted pro
rata from each Variable Sub-Account attributable to the Contract such that the
proportion of Account Value of the Contract attributable to each Sub-Account
remains the same before and after the deduction. The Monthly Deduction Amount
will vary from month to month. If the Cash Surrender Value is not sufficient to
cover a Monthly Deduction Amount due on any Monthly Activity Date, the Contract
may lapse. See "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Lapse and Reinstatement," page
17. The following is a summary of the monthly deductions and charges which
constitute the Monthly Deduction Amount:
COST OF INSURANCE CHARGE: The cost of insurance charge covers the Company's
anticipated mortality costs for standard and substandard risks. Current cost of
insurance rates are lower after the 10th Contract Year. The current cost of
insurance charge will not exceed the guaranteed cost of insurance charge. This
charge is the maximum annual cost of insurance per $1,000 as indicated in the
Contract; multiplied by the difference between the Death Benefit and the Account
Value (both as determined on the Monthly Activity Date); divided by $1,000; and
divided by 12. For standard risks, the guaranteed cost of insurance rate is
based on the 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary Mortality Table, age last
birthday. (Unisex rates may be required in some states). A table of guaranteed
cost of insurance charges per $1,000 will be included in each Contract; however,
the Company reserves the right to use rates less than those shown in the table.
Substandard risks will be charged at a higher cost of insurance rate that will
not exceed rates based on a multiple of the 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary
Mortality Table, age last birthday. The multiple will be based on the Insured's
substandard rating.
The cost of insurance charge rates are applied to the difference between the
Death Benefit determined on the Monthly Activity Date and the Account Value on
that same date prior to assessing the Monthly Deduction Amount, because the
difference is the amount for which the Company is at risk should the Death
Benefit be then payable. The Death Benefit as computed on a given date is the
greater of (1) the Specified Amount on that date, and (2) the Account Value on
that date multiplied by the applicable Death Benefit ratio. (For an explanation
of the Death Benefit, see "Contract Benefits and Rights" on page 15.)
EXAMPLE:
<TABLE>
<S> <C> <C>
Specified Amount = $ 100,000
Account Value on the Monthly
Activity Date = $ 30,000
Insured's attained age = 45
Death Benefit ratio for age 45 = 2.15
</TABLE>
On the Monthly Activity Date in this example, the Death Benefit as then computed
would be $100,000, because the Specified Amount ($100,000) is greater than the
Account Value multiplied by the applicable Death Benefit ratio ($30,000 x 2.15 =
$64,500). Since the Account Value on that date is $30,000, the cost of insurance
charges per $1,000 are applied to the difference ($100,000 - $30,000 = $70,000).
Assume that the Account Value in the above example was $50,000. The Death
Benefit would then be $107,500 (2.15 x $50,000), since this is greater than the
Specified Amount ($100,000). The cost of insurance rates in that case would be
applied to ($107,500 - $50,000) = $57,500.
Because the Account Value and, as a result, the amount for which the Company is
at risk under a Contract may vary from month to month, the cost of insurance
charge may also vary on each Monthly Activity Date. However, once a risk rating
class has been assigned to an Insured when the Contract is issued, that rating
class will not change if additional premium payments or partial withdrawals
increase or decrease the Specified Amount.
TAX EXPENSE CHARGE: The Company will deduct monthly from the Account Value a tax
expense charge equal to an annual rate of 0.40% for the first ten Contract
Years. This charge compensates the Company for premium taxes imposed by various
states and local jurisdictions and for federal taxes related to the receipt of
premiums under the Contract and that results from the application of section 848
of the Code. The charge includes a premium tax deduction of 0.25% and a federal
tax deduction of 0.15%. The 0.25% premium tax deduction over ten Contract Years
approximates the Company's average expenses for state and local premium taxes
(2.5%). Premium taxes vary, ranging from zero to 3.5%. The premium tax deduction
will be imposed regardless of a contract owner's state of residence and,
therefore, is made whether or not any premium tax applies. The deduction may be
higher or lower than the premium tax imposed. However, the Company does not
expect to make a profit from this deduction. The 0.15% federal tax deduction
helps reimburse the
<PAGE>
13
Company for approximate expenses incurred for federal taxes resulting from the
application of Section 848 of the Code.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CHARGE: The Company will deduct monthly from the Account
Value an administrative expense charge equal to an annual rate of 0.25%. This
charge compensates the Company for administrative expenses incurred in the
administration of the Variable Account and the Contracts.
All monthly deductions are taken by canceling Accumulation Units of the Variable
Account under your Contract.
OTHER DEDUCTIONS
MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE: The Company will deduct from the Variable
Account a daily charge equivalent to an annual rate of 0.90% for the mortality
risks and expense risks the Company assumes in relation to the Contracts. The
mortality risk assumed includes the risk that the cost of insurance charges
specified in the Contract will be insufficient to meet claims. The Company also
assumes a risk that the Death Benefit will exceed the amount on which the cost
of insurance charges were based on the Monthly Activity Date preceding the death
of an Insured. The expense risk assumed is that expenses incurred in issuing and
administering the Contracts will exceed the administrative charges set in the
Contract. The Company may profit from the mortality and expense risk charge and
may use any profits for any proper purpose, including any difference between the
cost it incurs in distributing the Contracts and the proceeds of the Withdrawal
Charge.
ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE: If the aggregate premiums paid on a Contract are less
than $50,000, the Company will deduct from the Account Value an Annual
Maintenance Fee of $35 on each Contract Anniversary. This fee will help
reimburse the Company for administrative and maintenance costs of the Contracts.
The sum of the monthly administrative charges and the annual maintenance fee is
designed not to exceed the anticipated cost the Company incurs in providing
administrative services under the Contracts.
TAXES CHARGED AGAINST THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT: Currently, no charge is made to the
Variable Account for federal income taxes that may be attributable to the
operations of the Variable Account (as opposed to the federal tax related to the
receipt of premiums under the Contract). The Company may, however, make such a
charge in the future. Charges for other taxes, if any, attributable to the
Variable Account or this class of Contracts may also be made.
CHARGES AGAINST THE FUNDS: The Variable Account purchases shares of the Funds at
net asset value. The net asset value of the Fund shares reflects investment
advisory fees and administrative expenses already deducted from the assets of
the Funds. Fund investment management fees are a percentage of the average daily
value of the net assets of the Portfolios:

(6) The Dreyfus Corporation has undertaken, until December 31, 1996, that if the
aggregate expenses of the Portfolio, exclusive of taxes, brokerage, interest
on borrowings and (with the prior written consent of the necessary state
securities commissions) extraordinary expenses, but including the management
fee, exceed 1.25 of 1% of the value of the Portfolio's average daily net

The Total Fund Annual Expense is an annualized figure based off of actual
expenses incurred during the period from inception (May 1, 1996) to June 30,
1996.
(7) Total Fund Annual Expenses reflect expense reimbursements for The Dreyfus
Socially Responsible Growth Fund, Inc., VIF Small Company Stock, VIF Growth
& Income, and VIF Money Market Portfolios of 0.06%, 0.20%, 0.03% and 0.03%
respectively.
(8) The Adviser has agreed to bear, subject to reimbursement, expenses for each
of the Emerging Growth Series and Limited Maturity Series such that each
Series' aggregate operating expenses shall not exceed, on an annual basis,
1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Series from November 2, 1994
through December 31, 1996, 1.25% of the average daily net assets of the
Series from January 1, 1997 through December 31, 1998, and 1.50% of the
average daily net assets of the Series from January 1, 1999 through December
31, 2004; provided however, that this obligation may be terminated or
revised at any time. See "Information Concerning Shares of Each Series --
Expenses" below. Absent this expense arrangement, "Other Expenses" for the
Emerging Growth Series and Limited Maturity Series would be 2.16% and 1.00%
respectively, and "Total Fund Annual Expenses" would be 2.91% and 1.55%
respectively, for these Series. Each Series has an expense offset
arrangement which reduces the Series' custodian fee based upon the amount of
cash maintained by the Series with its custodian and dividend disbursing
agent and may enter into other such arrangements and directed brokerage
arrangements (which would also have the effect of reducing the Series'
expenses). Any such fee reductions are not reflected under "Other Expenses."
WITHDRAWAL CHARGE: Upon surrender of the Contract and partial withdrawals in
excess of the Free Withdrawal Amount, a Withdrawal Charge may be assessed. The
Free Withdrawal Amount in any Contract Year is 15% of total premiums paid. Any
Free Withdrawal Amount not taken in a Contract Year may not be carried forward
to increase the Free Withdrawal Amount in any subsequent year. Withdrawals in
excess of the Free Withdrawal Amount will be subject to a withdrawal charge as
set forth in the table below:

After the ninth Contract Year, no Withdrawal Charges will be imposed. In
addition, no Withdrawal Charge will be imposed on any withdrawal to the extent
that aggregate Withdrawal Charges and the federal tax portion of the tax expense
charge imposed would otherwise exceed 9% of total premiums paid prior to the
withdrawal. The Withdrawal Charge may be waived under certain circumstances if
the Insured is confined to a qualified long-term care facility or hospital. See
"Contract Benefits and Rights -- Confinement Waiver Benefit", page 18.
The Withdrawal Charge is imposed to cover a portion of the sales expense
incurred by the Company in distributing the Contracts. This expense includes
agents' commissions, advertising and the printing of prospectuses.
DUE AND UNPAID PREMIUM TAX CHARGE: During the first nine Contract Years, a
charge for due and unpaid premium tax will be imposed on full or partial
withdrawals in excess of the Free Withdrawal Amount. This charge is shown below,

CONTRACT BENEFITS AND RIGHTS
DEATH BENEFIT
The Contracts provide for the payment of Death Benefit Proceeds to the named
beneficiary when the Insured under the Contract dies. The Proceeds payable to
the beneficiary equal the Death Benefit less any Indebtedness and less any due
and unpaid Monthly Deduction Amounts occurring during a Grace Period (if
applicable). The Death Benefit equals the greater of (1) the Specified Amount or
(2) the Account Value multiplied by the Death Benefit Ratio. The ratios vary
according to the attained age of the Insured and are specified in the Contract.
Therefore, an increase in Account Value due to favorable investment experience
may increase the Death Benefit above the Specified Amount; and a decrease in
Account Value due to unfavorable investment experience may decrease the Death
Benefit (but not below the Specified Amount).
EXAMPLES:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
A B
---------- ----------
<S> <C> <C>
Specified Amount: $ 100,000 $ 100,000
Insured's Age: 45 45
Account Value on Date of Death: $ 48,000 $ 34,000
Death Benefit Ratio 2.15 2.15
</TABLE>
In Example A, the Death Benefit equals $103,200, i.e., the greater of $100,000
(the Specified Amount) and $103,200 (the Account Value at the Date of Death of
$48,000, multiplied by the Death Benefit Ratio of 2.15). This amount, less any
Indebtedness and due and unpaid Monthly Deduction Amounts, constitutes the
Proceeds which we would pay to the beneficiary.
In Example B, the Death Benefit is $100,000, i.e., the greater of $100,000 (the
Specified Amount) or $73,100 (the Account Value of $34,000 multiplied by the
Death Benefit Ratio of 2.15).
All or part of the Proceeds may be paid in cash or applied under an Income Plan.
See "Other Matters -- Payment Options," page 20.
ACCELERATED DEATH BENEFIT
If the Insured becomes terminally ill, the Contract Owner may request an
accelerated Death Benefit in an amount up to the lesser of (1) 50% of the
Specified Amount on the day we receive the request, and (2) $250,000 for all
policies issued by the Company which cover the Insured. "Terminally ill" means
an illness or physical condition of the Insured that, notwithstanding
appropriate medical care, will result in a life expectancy of 12 months or less.
If the Insured is terminally ill as the result of an illness, the accelerated
Death Benefit is not available unless the illness occurred at least 30 days
after the Issue Date. If the Insured is terminally ill as the result of an
accident, the accelerated Death Benefit is available if the accident occurred
after the Issue Date.
We will pay benefits due under the accelerated Death Benefit provision upon
receipt of a written request from the Contract Owner and due proof that the
Insured has been diagnosed as terminally ill. The Company also reserves the
right to require supporting documentation of the diagnosis and to require (at
the Company's expense) an examination of the Insured by a physician of the
Company's choice to confirm the diagnosis. The amount of the payment will be the
amount requested by the Contract Owner, reduced by the sum of (1) a 12 month
interest discount to reflect the early payment; (2) an administrative fee (not
to exceed $250); and (3) a pro rata amount of any outstanding Contract loan and
accrued loan interest. After the payment has been made, the Specified Amount,
the Account Value and any outstanding Contract loan will be reduced on a prorata
basis.
Only one request for an accelerated Death Benefit per Insured is allowed. The
accelerated Death Benefit may not be available in all states.
ACCOUNT VALUE
The Account Value of a Contract will be computed on each Valuation Day. On the
Contract Date, the Account Value is equal to the initial premium less the
Monthly Deduction Amount for the first month. Thereafter, the Account Value will
vary to reflect the investment experience of the Funds, the value of the Loan
Account and the Monthly Deduction Amounts. There is no minimum guaranteed
Account Value.
The Account Value of a particular Contract is related to the net asset value of
the Funds to which premiums on the Contract have been allocated. The Account
Value on any Valuation Day is calculated by multiplying the number of
Accumulation Units credited to the Contract in each Variable Sub-Account as of
the Valuation Day by the then Accumulation Unit Value of that Sub-Account and
then summing the result for all the Sub-Accounts credited to the Contract and
the value of the Loan Account. See "The Contract -- Accumulation Unit Values,"
page 11.
<PAGE>
16
TRANSFER OF ACCOUNT VALUE
While the Contract remains in force and subject to the Company's transfer rules
then in effect, the Contract Owner may request that part or all of the Account
Value of a particular Variable Sub-Account be transferred to other Variable
Sub-Accounts. The Company reserves the right to impose a $10 charge on each such
transfer in excess of 12 per Contract Year. However, there are no charges on
transfers at the present time. The minimum amount that can be transferred is
shown on the Contract Data page (currently, there is no minimum).
Telephone transfer requests will be accepted by the Company if received at
1(800)526-4827 by 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time. Telephone transfer requests received
at any other telephone number or after 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time will not be
accepted by the Company. Telephone transfer requests received before 4:00 p.m.,
Eastern Time are effected at the next computed value. Transfers by telephone may
be made by the Contract Owner's agent of record or attorney-in-fact pursuant to
a power of attorney. Telephone transfers may not be permitted in some states.
The policy of the Company and its agents and affiliates is that they will not be
responsible for losses resulting from acting upon telephone requests reasonably
believed to be genuine. The Company will employ reasonable procedures to confirm
that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine; otherwise, the Company
may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions. The
procedures the Company follows for transactions initiated by telephone include
requirements that callers on behalf of a Contract Owner identify themselves and
the Contract Owner by name and social security number or other identifying
information. All transfer instructions by telephone are tape recorded.
As a result of a transfer, the number of Accumulation Units credited to the
Variable Sub-Account from which the transfer is made will be reduced by the
number obtained by dividing the amount transferred by the Accumulation Unit
Value of the Sub-Account from which the transfer is made on the Valuation Date
the Company receives the transfer request. The number of Accumulation Units
credited to the Sub-Account to which the transfer is made will be increased by
the number obtained by dividing the amount transferred by the Accumulation Unit
Value of that Sub-Account on the Valuation Day the Company receives the transfer
request.
DOLLAR COST AVERAGING
Transfers may be made automatically through Dollar Cost Averaging while the
Contract is in force. Dollar Cost Averaging permits the Owner to transfer a
specified amount every month (or some other frequency as may be determined by
the Company) from the Money Market Sub-Account to any other Variable
Sub-Account. The theory of Dollar Cost Averaging is that, if purchases of equal
dollar amounts are made at fluctuating prices, the aggregate average cost per
unit will be less than the average of the unit prices on the same purchase
dates. However, participation in the Dollar Cost Averaging program does not
assure you of a greater profit from your purchases under the program; nor will
it prevent or alleviate losses in a declining market.
AUTOMATIC PORTFOLIO REBALANCING
Transfers may be made automatically through Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing
while the Contract is in force. By electing Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing, the
Account Value in the Variable Sub-Accounts will be rebalanced to the desired
allocation on a quarterly basis, determined from the first date that you decide
to rebalance. Each quarter, Account Value will be transferred among Variable
Sub-Accounts to achieve the desired allocation.
The desired allocation will be the allocation initially selected, unless
subsequently changed. You may change the allocation at any time by giving us
written notice. The new allocation will be effective with the first rebalancing
that occurs after we receive the written request. We are not responsible for
rebalancing that occurs prior to receipt of the written request.
CONTRACT LOANS
While the Contract is in force, a Contract Owner may obtain, without the consent
of the beneficiary (provided the designation of beneficiary is not irrevocable),
one or both of two types of cash loans from the Company. These types are
Preferred Loans (described below) and non-Preferred Loans. Both types of loans
are secured by the Contract. The maximum amount available for a loan is 90% of
the Contract's Cash Value, less the amount of all Contract loans existing on the
date of the loan (including loan interest to the next Contract Anniversary),
less any due and unpaid Monthly Deduction Amounts, and less any Annual
Maintenance Fee due on or before the next Contract Anniversary.
The loan amount will be transferred pro rata from each Variable Sub-Account
attributable to the Contract (unless the Contract Owner specifies otherwise) to
the Loan Account. The amounts allocated to the Loan Account will be credited
with interest at the loan credited rate set forth in the Contract. Loans will
bear interest at rates determined by the Company from time to time, but which
will not
<PAGE>
17
exceed the maximum rate indicated in the Contract (currently, 8% per year). The
amount of the Loan Account that equals the difference between the Account Value
and the total of all premiums paid under the Contract net of any premiums
returned due to partial withdrawals, as determined on each Contract Anniversary,
is considered a "Preferred Loan." Preferred Loans bear interest at a rate not to
exceed the Preferred Loan rate set forth in the Contract. The difference between
the value of the Loan Account and the Indebtedness will be transferred on a
pro-rata basis from the Variable Sub-Accounts to the Loan Account on each
Contract Anniversary. If the aggregate outstanding loan(s) and loan interest
secured by the Contract exceeds the Cash Value of the Contract, the Company will
give written notice to the Contract Owner that unless the Company receives an
additional payment within 61 days to reduce the aggregate outstanding loan(s)
secured by the Contract, the Contract may lapse.
All or any part of any loan secured by a Contract may be repaid while the
Contract is still in effect. When loan repayments or interest payments are made,
the repayment will be allocated among the Variable Sub-Accounts in the same
percentage as subsequent payments are allocated (unless the Contract Owner
requests a different allocation), and an amount equal to the payment will be
deducted from the Loan Account. Any outstanding loan at the end of a Grace
Period must be repaid before the Contract will be reinstated. See "Contract
Benefits and Rights -- Lapse and Reinstatement," page 17.
A loan, whether or not repaid, will have a permanent effect on the Account Value
because the investment results of each Variable Sub-Account will apply only to
the amount remaining in that Sub-Account. The longer a loan is outstanding, the
greater the effect is likely to be. The effect could be favorable or
unfavorable. If the Variable Sub-Accounts earn more than the annual interest
rate for amounts held in the Loan Account, a Contract Owner's Account Value will
not increase as rapidly as it would have had no loan been made. If the Variable
Sub-Accounts earn less than that rate, the Contract Owner's Account Value will
be greater than it would have been had no loan been made. Also, if not repaid,
the aggregate outstanding loan(s) will reduce the Death Benefit Proceeds and
Cash Surrender Value otherwise payable.
AMOUNT PAYABLE ON SURRENDER OF THE CONTRACT
While the Contract is in force, a Contract Owner may elect, without the consent
of the beneficiary (provided the designation of beneficiary is not irrevocable),
to fully surrender the Contract. Upon surrender, the Contract Owner will receive
the Cash Surrender Value determined as of the day the Company receives the
Contract Owner's written request or the date requested by the Contract Owner,
whichever is later. The Cash Surrender Value equals the Cash Value less the
Annual Maintenance Fee and any Indebtedness. The Company will pay the Cash
Surrender Value of the Contract within seven days of receipt by the Company of
the written request or on the effective surrender date requested by the Contract
Owner, whichever is later.
The Contract will terminate on the date of receipt of the written request, or
the date the Contract Owner requests the surrender to be effective, whichever is
later. For a discussion of the tax consequences of surrendering the Contract,
see "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23.
The Contract Owner may elect to apply the surrender proceeds to an Income Plan
(see "Other Matters -- Payment Options," page 20).
PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS
While the Contract is in force, a Contract Owner may elect, by written request,
to make partial withdrawals of at least $50 from the Cash Surrender Value. The
Cash Surrender Value, after the partial withdrawal, must at least equal $2,000;
otherwise, the request will be treated as a request for full surrender. The
partial withdrawal will be deducted pro rata from each Variable Sub-Account,
unless the Contract Owner instructs otherwise. The Specified Amount after the
partial withdrawal will be the greater of:
- the Specified Amount prior to the partial withdrawal reduced
proportionately to the reduction in Account Value; or
- the minimum Specified Amount necessary in order to meet the definition of
a life insurance contract under section 7702 of the Code.
Partial withdrawals in excess of the Free Withdrawal Amount may be subject to a
Withdrawal Charge and any due and unpaid premium tax charges. See "Deductions
and Charges -- Other Deductions -- Withdrawal Charge" and "Premium Tax Charge."
For a discussion of the tax consequences of partial withdrawals, see "Federal
Tax Considerations," page 23.
MATURITY
The Contracts have no maturity date.
LAPSE AND REINSTATEMENT
The Contract will remain in force until the Cash Surrender Value is insufficient
to cover a Monthly Deduction Amount due on a Monthly Activity Date. The Company
<PAGE>
18
will give written notice to the Contract Owner that if an amount shown in the
notice (which will be sufficient to cover the Monthly Deduction Amount(s) due)
is not paid within 61 days ("Grace Period"), there is a danger of lapse.
The Contract will continue through the Grace Period, but if no payment is
forthcoming, it will terminate at the end of the Grace Period. If the Insured
dies during the Grace Period, the Proceeds payable under the Contract will be
reduced by the Monthly Deduction Amount(s) due and unpaid. See "Contract
Benefits and Rights -- Death Benefit," page 15.
If the Contract lapses, the Contract Owner may apply for reinstatement of the
Contract by payment of the reinstatement premium (and any applicable charges)
required under the Contract. A request for reinstatement must be made within
five years of the date the Contract entered a Grace Period. If a loan was
outstanding at the time of lapse, the Company will require repayment of the loan
before permitting reinstatement. In addition, the Company reserves the right to
require evidence of insurability satisfactory to the Company. The reinstatement
premium is equal to an amount sufficient to (1) cover all Monthly Deduction
Amounts and Annual Maintenance Fee due and unpaid during the Grace Period, and
(2) keep the Contract in force for three months after the date of reinstatement.
The Specified Amount upon reinstatement cannot exceed the Specified Amount of
the Contract at its lapse. The Account Value on the reinstatement date will
reflect the Account Value at the time of termination of the Contract plus the
premiums paid at the time of reinstatement. Withdrawal charges and due and
unpaid premium tax charges, Cost of Insurance, and Tax Expense Charges will
continue to be based on the original Contract Date.
CANCELLATION AND EXCHANGE RIGHTS
A Contract Owner has a limited right to return a Contract for cancellation. If
the Contract is returned for cancellation by mail or personal delivery to the
Company or to the agent who sold the Contract within 10 days after delivery of
the Contract to the Contract Owner (a longer free-look period is provided in
certain states), the Company will return to the Contract Owner within 7 days the
sum of (1) the Account Value on the date the returned Contract is received by
the Company or its agent; and (2) any deductions under the Contract or by the
Funds for taxes, charges or fees. Some states may require the Company to return
the premiums paid for the returned Contract.
Once the Contract is in effect, it may be exchanged during the first 24 months
after its issuance for a non-variable permanent life insurance contract offered
by the Company on the life of the Insured. The Company reserves the right to
make available a permanent life insurance contract offered by the Company's
account or any affiliated company without evidence of insurability. The amount
at risk to the Company (i.e., the difference between the Death Benefit and the
Account Value) under the new contract will be equal to or less than the amount
at risk to the Company under the exchanged Contract on the date of exchange.
Premiums under the new Contract will be based on the same risk classification as
the exchanged Contract. The exchange is subject to adjustments in premiums and
Account Value to reflect any variance between the exchanged Contract and the new
contract. The Company reserves the right to make such a contract available that
is offered by the Company's parent or by any affiliate of the Company.
CONFINEMENT WAIVER BENEFIT
Under the terms of an amendatory endorsement to the Contract, the Company will
waive any Withdrawal Charges on Partial Withdrawals and surrenders of the
Contract requested while the Insured is confined to a qualified long-term care
facility or hospital for a period of more than 90 consecutive days beginning 30
days or more after the Issue Date, or within 90 days after the Insured is
discharged from such confinement. The confinement must have been prescribed by a
licensed medical doctor or a licensed doctor of osteopathy, operating within the
scope of his or her license, and must be medically necessary. The prescribing
doctor may not be the Insured, the Contract Owner, or any spouse, child, parent,
grandchild, grandparent, sibling or in-law of the Contract Owner. "Medically
necessary" means appropriate and consistent with the diagnosis and which could
not have been omitted without adversely affecting the Insured's condition. The
confinement waiver benefit may not be available in all states.
SUSPENSION OF VALUATION, PAYMENTS AND TRANSFERS
The Company will suspend all procedures requiring valuation of the Variable
Account (including transfers, surrenders and loans) on any day the New York
Stock Exchange is closed or trading is restricted due to an existing emergency
as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or on any day the
Commission has ordered that the right of surrender of the Contracts be suspended
for the protection of Contract Owners, until such condition has ended.
<PAGE>
19
LAST SURVIVOR CONTRACTS
The Contracts are offered on a single life and "last survivor" basis. Contracts
sold on a last survivor basis operate in a manner almost identical to the single
life version. The most important difference is that the last survivor version
involves two Insureds and the Proceeds are paid only on the death of the last
surviving Insured. The other significant differences between the last survivor
and single life versions are listed below:
1. Last survivor Contracts are offered for prospective insured persons age
18-85.
2. The cost of insurance charges under the last survivor Contracts are
determined in a manner that reflects the anticipated mortality of the two
Insureds and the fact that the Death Benefit is not payable until the death
of the second Insured. See the last survivor illustrations in "Appendix A,"
page A-1.
3. To qualify for simplified underwriting under a last survivor Contract, both
Insureds must meet the simplified underwriting standards.
4. For a last survivor Contract to be reinstated, both Insureds must be alive
on the date of reinstatement.
5. The Contract provisions regarding misstatement of age or sex, suicide and
incontestability apply to either Insured.
6. Additional tax disclosures applicable to last survivor Contracts are
provided in "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23."
7. The Accelerated Death Benefit provision is only available upon terminal
illness of the last survivor.
8. The Confinement Waiver Benefit is available upon confinement of either
insured.
OTHER MATTERS
VOTING RIGHTS
In accordance with its view of presently applicable law, the Company will vote
the shares of the Funds at regular and special meetings of the shareholders of
the Funds in accordance with instructions from Contract Owners (or the assignee
of the Contract, as the case may be) having a voting interest in the Variable
Account. The number of shares of a Fund Portfolio held in a Variable Account
which are attributable to each Contract Owner is determined by dividing the
Contract Owner's interest in that Variable Sub-Account by the per share net
asset value of the corresponding Fund Portfolio. The Company will vote shares
for which no instructions have been given and shares which are not attributable
to Contract Owners (i.e., shares owned by the Company) in the same proportion as
it votes shares for which it has received instructions. If the Investment
Company Act of 1940 or any rule promulgated thereunder should be amended,
however, or if the Company's present interpretation should change and, as a
result, the Company determines it is permitted to vote the shares of the Funds
in its own right, it may elect to do so.
The voting interests of the Contract Owner (or the assignee) in the Funds will
be determined as follows: Contract Owners are entitled to give voting
instructions to the Company with respect to Fund Portfolio shares attributable
to them as described above, determined on the record date for the shareholder
meeting for that Fund. Therefore, if a Contract Owner has taken a loan secured
by the Contract, amounts transferred from the Sub-Account(s) to the Loan Account
in connection with the loan (see "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Contract
Loans," page 16) will not be considered in determining the voting interests of
the Contract Owner. Contract Owners should review the prospectuses for the Funds
which accompany this prospectus to determine matters on which Fund shareholders
may vote.
The Company may, when required by state insurance regulatory authorities,
disregard voting instructions if the instructions require that the shares be
voted so as to cause a change in the sub-classification or investment objective
of one or more of the Funds or to approve or disapprove an investment advisory
contract for the Funds.
In addition, the Company itself may disregard voting instructions in favor of
changes initiated by Contract Owners in the investment objectives or the
investment adviser of the Funds if the Company reasonably disapproves of such
changes. A change would be disapproved only if the proposed change is contrary
to state law or prohibited by state regulatory authorities. If the Company does
disregard voting instructions, a summary of that action and the reasons for such
action will be included in the next periodic report to Contract Owners.
STATEMENTS TO CONTRACT OWNERS
The Company will maintain all records relating to the Variable Account and the
Variable Sub-Accounts. At least once each Contract Year, the Company will send
to each Contract Owner a statement showing the Coverage Amount and the Account
Value of the Contract (indicating the number of Accumulation Units credited to
the Contract in each Variable Sub-Account and the corresponding Accumulation
Unit Value), and any outstanding loan secured by the Contract as of the date of
the statement. The
<PAGE>
20
statement will also show premium paid, and Monthly Deduction Amounts under the
Contract since the last statement, and any other information required by any
applicable law or regulation.
LIMIT ON RIGHT TO CONTEST
The Company may not contest the validity of the Contract after it has been in
effect during the Insured's lifetime for two years from the Contract Date. If
the Contract is reinstated, the two-year period is measured from the date of
reinstatement. Any increase in the Specified Amount for which evidence of
insurability was obtained is contestable for 2 years from its effective date. In
addition, if the Insured dies by suicide while sane or self destruction while
insane in the two-year period after the Contract Date, or such period as
specified in state law, the benefit payable will be limited to the premiums paid
less any Indebtedness and partial withdrawals. If the Insured dies by suicide
while sane or self-destruction while insane in the two-year period following an
increase in the Specified Amount, the benefit payable with respect to the
increase will be limited to the additional premium paid for such increase, less
any Indebtedness and partial withdrawals.
MISSTATEMENT AS TO AGE AND SEX
If the age or sex of the Insured is incorrectly stated, the Death Benefit will
be appropriately adjusted as specified in the Contract.
PAYMENT OPTIONS
The surrender proceeds or Death Benefit Proceeds under the Contracts may be paid
in a lump sum or may be applied to one of the Company's Income Plans. If the
amount to be applied to an Income Plan is less than $3,000 or if it would result
in an initial income payment of less than $20, the Company may require that the
frequency of income payments be decreased such that the income payments are
greater than $20 each, or it may elect to pay the amount in a lump sum. No
surrender or partial withdrawals are permitted after payments under an Income
Plan commence.
We will pay interest on the Proceeds from the date of the Insured's death to the
date payment is made or a payment option is elected. At such times, the Proceeds
are not subject to the investment experience of the Variable Account.
The Income Plans are fixed annuities payable from the Company's general account.
They do not reflect the investment experience of the Variable Account. Fixed
annuity payments are determined by multiplying the amount applied to the annuity
by a rate to be determined by the Company which is no less than the rate
specified in the fixed payment annuity tables in the Contract. The annuity
payment will remain level for the duration of the annuity. The Company may
require proof of age and gender of the payee (and joint payee, if applicable)
before payments begin. The Company may also require proof that such person(s)
are living before it makes each payment.
The following options are available under the Contracts (the Company may offer
other payment options):
INCOME PLAN 1 -- LIFE INCOME WITH GUARANTEED PAYMENTS
The Company will make payments for as long as the payee lives. If the payee
dies before the selected number of guaranteed payments have been made, the
Company will continue to pay the remainder of the guaranteed payments.
INCOME PLAN 2 -- JOINT AND SURVIVOR LIFE INCOME WITH GUARANTEED PAYMENTS
The Company will make payments for as long as either the payee or Joint
payee, named at the time of Income Plan selection, is living. If both the
payee and the Joint payee die before the selected number of guaranteed
payments have been made, the Company will continue to pay the remainder of
the guaranteed payments.
The Company will make any other arrangements for income payments as may be
agreed on.
BENEFICIARY
The applicant names the beneficiary in the application for the Contract. The
Contract Owner may change the beneficiary (unless irrevocably named) during the
Insured's lifetime by written request to the Company. If no beneficiary is
living when the Insured dies, the Proceeds will be paid to the Contract Owner if
living; otherwise to the Contract Owner's estate.
ASSIGNMENT
Unless required by state law, the Contract may not be assigned as collateral for
a loan or other obligation.
DIVIDENDS
No dividends will be paid under the Contracts.

DISTRIBUTION OF THE CONTRACTS
The Company intends to sell the Contracts in all jurisdictions where it is
licensed to do business. The Contracts will be sold by life insurance sales
representatives who represent the Company and who are registered representatives
of Allstate Life Financial Services, Inc. ("ALFS") or certain other registered
broker-dealers. Any sales representative or employee will have been qualified to
sell variable life insurance contracts under applicable Federal and state laws.
Each broker-dealer is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and all are members of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
ALFS, the principal underwriter for the Contracts, was incorporated on March 25,
1988 under the laws of the State of Illinois. Its principal business offices are
located 3100 Sanders Road, Northbrook, Illinois. ALFS' officers and employees
are covered by a brokers' blanket bond in the amount of $5,000,000. The maximum
sales commission payable to Company agents, independent registered insurance
brokers, and other registered broker-dealers is 7.25% of initial and subsequent
premiums. From time to time, the Company may pay or permit other promotional
incentives, in cash or credit or other compensation.

SAFEKEEPING OF THE VARIABLE
ACCOUNT'S ASSETS
The assets of the Variable Account are held by the Company. The assets of the
Variable Account are kept physically segregated and held separate and apart from
the General Account of the Company. The Company maintains records of all
purchases and redemptions of shares of the Funds.
FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
INTRODUCTION
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS GENERAL AND IS NOT INTENDED AS TAX ADVICE. THE
COMPANY MAKES NO GUARANTEE REGARDING THE TAX TREATMENT OF ANY CONTRACT OR
TRANSACTION INVOLVING A CONTRACT. Federal, state, local and other tax
consequences of ownership or purchase of a life insurance contract depend upon
the individual circumstances of each person. If you are concerned about any tax
consequences with regard to your individual circumstances, you should consult a
qualified tax advisor.
TAXATION OF THE COMPANY AND THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT
The Company is taxed as a life insurance company under Part I of Subchapter L of
the Internal Revenue Code. Since the Variable Account is not an entity separate
from the Company and its operations form a part of the Company, it will not be
taxed separately as a "Regulated Investment Company" under Subchapter M of the
Code. Investment income and realized capital gains are automatically applied to
increase reserves under the Contracts. Under existing federal income tax law,
the Company believes that the Variable Account investment income and realized
net capital gains will not be taxed to the extent that such income and gains are
applied to increase the reserves under the Contracts.
Accordingly, the Company does not anticipate that it will incur any federal
income tax liability attributable to the Variable Account, and therefore the
Company does not intend to make provisions for any such taxes. However, if
changes in the federal tax laws or interpretations thereof result in the Company
being taxed on income or gains attributable to the Variable Account, then the
Company may impose a charge against the Variable Account (with respect to some
or all Contracts) in order to set aside provisions to pay such taxes.
TAXATION OF CONTRACT BENEFITS
For Federal income tax purposes, the Contracts should be treated as life
insurance contracts under Section 7702 of the Code. The death benefit under a
life insurance contract is excluded from the gross income of the beneficiary.
Also, a life insurance contract owner is generally not taxed on increments in
the contract value until the contract is partially or completely surrendered.
Section 7702 limits the amount of premiums that may be invested in a contract
that is treated as life insurance. The Company intends to monitor the premium
levels to assure compliance with the Section 7702 requirements. The Company
reserves the right to amend the Contracts to comply with future changes in the
Code, any regulations or rulings under the Code and any other requirements
imposed by the Internal Revenue Service.
LAST SURVIVOR CONTRACTS: Although the Company believes that the last survivor
Contracts are in compliance with Section 7702 of the Code, the manner in which
Section 7702 should be applied to certain features of a joint survivorship life
insurance contract is not directly addressed by Section 7702. In the absence of
final regulations or other guidance issued under Section 7702, there is
necessarily some uncertainty whether a last survivor Contract will meet the
Section 7702 definition of a life insurance contract.
If you own and are the Insured under the Contract, the Death Benefit will be
included in your gross estate for federal estate tax purposes if the proceeds
are payable to your estate. If the beneficiary is other than your estate but you
retained incidents of ownership in the Contract, the Death Benefit will also be
included in your gross estate. Examples of incidents of ownership include, but
are not limited to, the right to change beneficiaries, to assign the Contract or
revoke an assignment, to pledge the Contract or to obtain a policy loan. If you
own and are the Insured under the Contract and you transfer all incidents of
ownership in the Contract, the Death Benefit will be included in your gross
estate if you die within three years from the date of the ownership transfer.
State and local estate and inheritance tax consequences may also apply. In
addition, certain transfers of the Contract or Death Benefit, either during life
or at death, to individuals (or trusts for the benefit of such individuals) two
or more generations below that of the transferor may be subject to the federal
generation skipping transfer tax.
MODIFIED ENDOWMENT CONTRACTS
A life insurance contract is treated as a "modified endowment contract" under
Section 7702A of the Code if it meets the definition of life insurance in
Section 7702 but
<PAGE>
24
fails the "seven-pay" test of Section 7702A. The seven-pay test provides that
premiums cannot be paid at a rate more rapidly than that allowed by the payment
of seven annual premiums using specified computational rules provided in Section
7702A(c). The large single premium permitted under the Contract (which is equal
to 100% of the "Guideline Single Premium" as defined in section 7702 of the
Code) does not meet the specified computational rules for the "seven-pay test"
under Section 7702A(c). Therefore, the Contract will generally be treated as a
modified endowment contract for federal income tax purposes. However, an
exchange of a life insurance contract that is not a modified endowment contract
will not cause the new contract to be a modified endowment contract if no
additional premiums are paid. An exchange under section 1035 of the Code of a
life insurance contract that is a modified endowment contract for a new life
insurance contract will always cause the new contract to be a modified endowment
contract. A contract that is classified as a modified endowment contract is
generally eligible for beneficial tax treatment accorded to life insurance. That
is, the death benefit is excluded from income and increments in value are not
subject to current taxation. If a person receives any amount as a policy loan
from a modified endowment contract, or assigns or pledges any part of the value
of the contract, such amount is treated as a distribution. A distribution from a
modified endowment contract during the life of the Insured will be taxed to the
extent of any accumulated income in the contract (generally, the excess of
account value over premiums paid). Any amounts that are taxable withdrawals will
be subject to a 10% additional tax, with certain exceptions: (1) distributions
made on or after the date on which the taxpayer attains age 59 1/2; (2)
distributions attributable to the taxpayer's becoming disabled (within the
meaning of Section 72(m)(7) of the Code); or (3) any distribution that is part
of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than
annually) made for the life (or life expectancy) of the taxpayer or the joint
lives (or joint life expectancies) of such taxpayer and his or her beneficiary.
All modified endowment contracts that are issued within any calendar year to the
same Contract Owner by one company or its affiliates shall be treated as one
modified endowment contract in determining the taxable portion of any loan or
distributions.
DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
For a Contract to be treated as a variable life insurance contract for federal
tax purposes, the investments in the Variable Account must be "adequately
diversified" in accordance with the standards provided in the Treasury
regulations. If the investments in the Variable Account are not adequately
diversified, then the Contract will not be treated as a variable life insurance
contract for federal income tax purposes and the Owner will be taxed on the
excess of the Contract Value over the investment in the Contract. Although the
Company does not have control over the Portfolios or their investments, the
Company expects the Portfolios to meet the diversification requirements.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY
The Company also acts as the sponsor for three other of its separate accounts
that are registered investment companies: Glenbrook Life and Annuity Company
Variable Annuity Account, Glenbrook Life and Annuity Company Separate Account A,
and Glenbrook Life Multi-Manager Variable Account. The officers and employees of
the Company are covered by a fidelity bond in the amount of $5,000,000. No
person beneficially owns more than 5% of the outstanding voting stock of The
Allstate Corporation, of which the Company is an indirect wholly-owned
subsidiary.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time the Company is involved in pending and threatened litigation
in the normal course of its business in which claims for monetary damages are
asserted. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, does not anticipate
the ultimate liability arising from such pending or threatened litigation to
have a material effect on the financial condition of the Company or the Variable
Account.
LEGAL MATTERS
Sutherland, Asbill & Brennan., of Washington, D.C., has provided advice on
certain legal matters relating to the federal securities laws applicable to the
issue and sale of the Contracts. All matters of Illinois law pertaining to the
Contracts, including the validity of the Contracts and the Company's right to
issue such Contracts under Illinois insurance law, have been passed upon by
Michael J. Velotta, General Counsel of the Company.
REGISTRATION STATEMENT
A registration statement has been filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended. This Prospectus does not
contain all information set forth in the registration statement, its amendments
and exhibits, to all of which reference is
<PAGE>

made for further information concerning the Variable Account, the Funds, the
Company, and the Contracts.
EXPERTS
The financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 and for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 and the related

authority as experts in accounting and auditing.
The hypothetical Contract illustrations included in this Prospectus have been
approved by Diana Montigney, FSA, and are included in reliance upon her opinion

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDER OF
GLENBROOK LIFE AND ANNUITY COMPANY:
We have audited the accompanying Statements of Financial Position of Glenbrook
Life and Annuity Company as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related
Statements of Operations, Shareholder's Equity and Cash Flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. Our audits also included
Schedule IV -- Reinsurance. These financial statements and financial statement
schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement
schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Glenbrook Life and Annuity Company as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, Schedule IV
- -- Reinsurance, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set
forth therein.
As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, in 1993 the Company changed
its method of accounting for investments in fixed income securities.

GLENBROOK LIFE AND ANNUITY COMPANY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
($ IN THOUSANDS)
1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Glenbrook Life and Annuity Company (the "Company") is wholly owned by Allstate
Life Insurance Company ("Allstate Life"), which is wholly owned by Allstate
Insurance Company ("Allstate"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Allstate
Corporation (the "Corporation"). On June 30, 1995, Sears, Roebuck and Co.
("Sears") distributed its 80.3% ownership in the Corporation to Sears common
shareholders through a tax-free dividend (the "Distribution").
The Company develops and markets flexible premium deferred variable annuity
contracts and single and flexible premium deferred annuities to individuals
through banks and financial institutions in the United States.
Annuity contracts issued by the Company are subject to discretionary withdrawal
or surrender by the contractholder, subject to applicable surrender charges.
These contracts are reinsured with Allstate Life (Note 4) which selects assets
to meet the anticipated cash flow requirements of the assumed liabilities.
Allstate Life utilizes various modeling techniques in managing the relationship
between assets and liabilities and employs strategies to maintain investments
which are sufficiently liquid to meet obligations to contractholders in various
interest rate scenarios.
The Company monitors economic and regulatory developments which have the
potential to impact its business. Currently there is proposed legislation which
would permit banks greater participation in securities businesses, which could
eventually present an increased level of competition for sales of the Company's
annuity contracts. Furthermore, the federal government may enact changes which
could possibly eliminate the tax-advantaged nature of annuities or eliminate
consumers' need for tax deferral, thereby reducing the incentive for customers
to purchase the Company's products. While it is not possible to predict the
outcome of such issues with certainty, management evaluates the likelihood of
various outcomes and develops strategies, as appropriate, to respond to such
challenges.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statements
to conform to the presentation for the current year.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
LIFE INSURANCE ACCOUNTING
The Company sells long-duration contracts that do not involve significant risk
of policyholder mortality or morbidity (principally single and flexible premium
annuities) which are considered investment contracts.
CONTRACTHOLDER FUNDS
Contractholder funds arise from the issuance of individual and group annuities
that include an investment component. Payments received are recorded as
interest-bearing liabilities. Contractholder funds are equal to deposits
received and interest accrued to the benefit of the contractholder less
withdrawals, mortality charges and administrative expenses. Credited interest
rates on contractholder funds ranged from 3.0% to 7.4% for those contracts with
fixed interest rates and from 4.25% to 7.9% for those with flexible rates during
1995.
SEPARATE ACCOUNTS
During 1995, the Company issued flexible premium deferred variable annuity
contracts, the assets and liabilities of which are legally segregated and
reflected in the accompanying statements of financial position as assets and
liabilities of the Separate Accounts (Glenbrook Life and Annuity Company
Variable Annuity Account and Glenbrook Life and Annuity Company Separate Account
A), unit investment trusts registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Assets of the Separate Accounts are invested in funds of management
investment companies. For certain variable annuity contracts, the Company has
entered into an exclusive distribution arrangement with distributors.
The assets of the Separate Accounts are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains
and losses on the Company's participation in the Separate Account, net of
deferred income taxes, is shown as a component of shareholder's equity. The
Company's participation in the Separate Account, amounting to $10,530 at
December 31, 1995, is subject to certain withdrawal restrictions which are
dependent upon aggregate fund net asset values. In addition, limitations exist
with regard to the maximum amount which can be withdrawn by the Company within
any 30-day period.

GLENBROOK LIFE AND ANNUITY COMPANY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
($ IN THOUSANDS)
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Investment income and realized gains and losses of the Separate Accounts, other
than the portion related to the Company's participation, accrue directly to the
contractholders and, therefore, are not included in the accompanying statements
of operations. Revenues to the Company from the Separate Accounts consist of
contract maintenance fees, administrative fees and mortality and expense risk
charges, which are entirely ceded to Allstate Life.
REINSURANCE
Beginning June 5, 1992, the Company reinsures all new business to Allstate Life
(Note 4). Life insurance in force prior to that date is ceded to non-affiliated
reinsurers.
Contract charges and credited interest are ceded and reflected net of such
cessions in the statements of operations. Reinsurance recoverable and
contractholder funds are reported separately in the statements of financial
position.
INVESTMENTS
Fixed income securities include bonds and mortgage-backed securities. Fixed
income securities are carried at fair value. The difference between amortized
cost and fair value, net of deferred income taxes, is reflected as a separate
component of shareholder's equity. Provisions are made to write down the
carrying value of fixed income securities for declines in value that are other
than temporary. Such writedowns are included in realized capital gains and
losses.
Short-term investments are carried at cost which approximates fair value.
Investment income consists primarily of interest, which is recognized on an
accrual basis. Interest income on mortgage-backed securities is determined on
the effective yield method, based on the estimated principal repayments. Accrual
of income is suspended for fixed income securities that are in default or when
the receipt of interest payments is in doubt. Realized capital gains and losses
are determined on a specific identification basis.
INCOME TAXES
The income tax provision is calculated under the liability method. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are recorded based on the difference between the
financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the enacted tax
rates. Deferred income taxes also arise from unrealized capital gains or losses
on fixed income securities carried at fair value.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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.
3. ACCOUNTING CHANGE
Effective December 31, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities." SFAS No. 115 requires that investments classified
as available for sale be carried at fair value. Previously, fixed income
securities classified as available for sale were carried at the lower of
amortized cost or fair value, determined in the aggregate. Unrealized holding
gains and losses are reflected as a separate component of shareholder's equity,
net of deferred income taxes. The net effect of adoption of this statement
increased shareholder's equity at December 31, 1993 by $693, with no impact on
net income.
4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
REINSURANCE
Contract charges ceded to Allstate Life under reinsurance agreements were $1,523
and $409 in 1995 and 1994, respectively. Credited interest and expenses ceded to
Allstate Life amounted to $71,905 and $26,177 in 1995 and 1994, respectively.
Investment income earned on the assets which support contractholder funds is not
included in the Company's financial statements as those assets were transferred
to Allstate Life under the terms of reinsurance treaties. Reinsurance ceded
arrangements do not discharge the Company as the primary insurer.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)
BUSINESS OPERATIONS
The Company utilizes services and business facilities owned or leased, and
operated by Allstate in conducting its business activities. The Company
reimburses Allstate for the operating expenses incurred by Allstate on behalf of
the Company. The cost to the Company is determined by various allocation methods
and is primarily related to the level of services provided. Operating expenses,
including compensation and retirement and other benefit programs, allocated to
the Company were $348, $271 and $59 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
Investment-related expenses are retained by the Company. All other costs are
assumed by Allstate Life under reinsurance treaties.
LAUGHLIN GROUP
Laughlin Group, Inc. ("Laughlin"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Laughlin Group
Holdings Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Allstate Life which was acquired in
September 1995, is a third-party marketer which distributes the products of
insurance carriers including the Company. Laughlin markets the Company's
flexible premium deferred variable annuity contracts and flexible premium
deferred annuities. Sales commissions paid to Laughlin subsequent to the
acquisition date of $3,439 were ceded to Allstate Life.
5. INCOME TAXES
Allstate Life and its life insurance subsidiaries, including the Company, will
file a consolidated federal income tax return. Tax liabilities and benefits
realized by the consolidated group are allocated as generated by the respective
subsidiaries, whether or not such benefits generated by the subsidiaries would
be available on a separate return basis. The Corporation and its domestic
subsidiaries including the Company (the "Allstate Group"), will be eligible to
file a consolidated tax return beginning in the year 2000.
Prior to the Distribution, the Allstate Group joined with Sears and its domestic
business units (the "Sears Group") in the filing of a consolidated federal
income tax return (the "Sears Tax Group") and were parties to a federal income
tax allocation agreement (the "Tax Sharing Agreement"). As a member of the Sears
Tax Group, the Corporation was jointly and severally liable for the consolidated
income tax liability of the Sears Tax Group. Under the Tax Sharing Agreement,
the Company, through the Corporation, paid to or received from the Sears Group
the amount, if any, by which the Sears Tax Group's federal income tax liability
was affected by virtue of inclusion of the Allstate Group in the consolidated
federal income tax return. Effectively, this resulted in the Company's annual
income tax provision being computed as if the Company filed a separate return,
except that items such as net operating losses, capital losses or similar items
which might not be immediately recognizable in a separate return, were allocated
according to the Tax Sharing Agreement and reflected in the Company's provision
to the extent that such items reduced the Sears Tax Group's federal tax
liability.
The Allstate Group and Sears Group have entered into an agreement which governs
their respective rights and obligations with respect to federal income taxes for
all periods prior to the Distribution ("Consolidated Tax Years"). The agreement
provides that all Consolidated Tax Years will continue to be governed by the Tax
Sharing Agreement with respect to the Company's federal income tax liability and
taxes payable to or recoverable from the Sears Group.

SECURITIES ON DEPOSIT
At December 31, 1995, fixed income securities with a carrying value of $10,085
were on deposit with regulatory authorities as required by law.
7. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In the normal course of business, the Company invests in various financial
assets and incurs various financial liabilities. The fair value of all financial
assets other than fixed income securities and all liabilities other than
contractholder funds approximates their carrying value as they are short-term in
nature.
Fair values for fixed income securities are based on quoted market prices. The
December 31, 1995 and 1994 fair values and carrying values of fixed income
securities are discussed in Note 6.
The fair value of contractholder funds on investment contracts is based on the
terms of the underlying contracts. Reserves on investment contracts with no
stated maturities (single premium and flexible premium deferred annuities) are
valued at the fund balance less surrender charge. The fair value of immediate
annuities with fixed terms are estimated using discounted cash flow calculations
based on interest rates currently offered for contracts with similar terms and
duration. Contractholder funds on investment contracts had a carrying value of
$1,340,925 at December 31, 1995 and a fair value of $1,282,248. The carrying
value and fair value at December 31, 1994 were $696,854 and $670,930,
respectively.

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Glenbrook Life and Annuity Company (the "Company") is wholly owned by Allstate
Life Insurance Company ("Allstate Life"), which is wholly owned by Allstate
Insurance Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Allstate Corporation.
The statements of financial position as of June 30, 1996, the statements of
operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, and the statements of cash flows for the six-month periods then ended are
unaudited. These interim financial statements reflect all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position,
results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. The financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Glenbrook Life and Annuity Company Annual Report on Form
10K for 1995. The results of operations for the interim periods should not be
considered indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
To conform with the 1996 presentation, certain items in the prior year's
financial statements have been reclassified.
2. REINSURANCE
The Company reinsures substantially all business with Allstate Life. Contract
charges ceded to Allstate Life under reinsurance agreements were $1,480 and $806
for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Credited
interest and expenses ceded to Allstate Life amounted to $52,768 and $29,890 for
the six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Investment
income earned on the assets which support contractholder funds was excluded from
the Company's financial statements as those assets were transferred to Allstate
Life under the terms of reinsurance treaties. Reinsurance ceded arrangements do
not discharge the Company as the primary insurer.

<PAGE>
APPENDIX A
ILLUSTRATIONS OF ACCOUNT VALUES, CASH SURRENDER VALUES,
DEATH BENEFITS, AND ACCUMULATED PREMIUMS
The tables in Appendix A illustrate the way the Contracts operate. They show how
the Death Benefit, Account Value and Cash Surrender Value could vary over an
extended period of time assuming hypothetical gross rates of return (I.E.,
investment income and capital gains and losses, realized or unrealized) for the
Variable Account equal to annual rates of 0%, 6%, and 12%. The tables are based
on an initial premium of $10,000 and also show the initial Death Benefit based
on that premium. The insureds are assumed to be in the standard underwriting
class. Values are first given based on current Contract charges and then based
on guaranteed Contract charges. (See "Deductions and Charges.") These tables may
assist in the comparison of Death Benefits, Account Values and Cash Surrender
Values for the Contracts with those under other variable life insurance
contracts that may be issued by other companies.
Death Benefits, Account Values and Cash Surrender Values for a Contract would be
different from the amounts shown if the actual gross rates of return averaged
0%, 6% or 12%, but varied above and below that average for the period, if the
initial premium were paid in another amount, or additional payments were made.
They would also be different depending on the allocation of Account Value among
the Variable Account's Variable Sub-Accounts, or if the actual gross rate of
return for all Variable Sub-Accounts averaged 0%, 6% or 12%, but varied above or
below that average for individual Variable Sub-Accounts. They would also differ
if any Contract loan or partial withdrawal were made during the period of time
illustrated, or if the insured were in another risk class.
The Death Benefits, Account Values and Cash Surrender Values shown in the tables
reflect the fact that: a Monthly Deduction Amount (consisting of a cost of
insurance charge, tax expense charge, and an administrative expense charge) is
deducted from Account Value each Monthly Activity Date and that an Annual
Maintenance Fee of $35 is deducted on each Contract Anniversary from all
Variable Sub-Accounts to which Account Value is allocated. The values in the
tables also reflect a deduction from the Variable Account of a daily charge
equal to an annual rate of 0.90% for the mortality and expense risk charge. The
Cash Surrender Value shown in the tables reflect the fact that a Withdrawal
Charge is imposed on withdrawals in excess of the Free Withdrawal Amount. (See
"Deductions and Charges.") The amounts shown in the table are based on an
average of the investment advisory fees and operating expenses incurred by the
Portfolios, at an annual rate of .65% of the average daily net assets of the
Portfolios. (See "Charges and Expenses.")
Taking account of the average investment advisory fee and operating expenses of
the Portfolios, the gross annual rates of return of 0%, 6% and 12% correspond to
net investment experience at constant annual rates of: (-.65%, 5.35%, and
11.35%,) respectively.
The hypothetical rates of return shown in the tables do not reflect any tax
charges attributable to the Variable Account since no such charges are currently
made. If any such charges are imposed in the future, the gross annual rate of
return would have to exceed the rates shown by an amount sufficient to cover the
tax charges, in order to produce the Account Values, Cash Surrender Values, and
Death Benefits illustrated.
The second column of each table shows the amount that would accumulate if the
initial premium of $10,000 were invested to earn interest, after taxes, of 5%
per year, compounded annually.
Glenbrook Life will furnish upon request a personalized illustration reflecting
the proposed insured's age, sex, and underwriting classification. Where
applicable, Glenbrook Life will also furnish upon request an illustration for a
Contract that is not affected by the sex of the insured.

deducted under the Modified Single Premium Variable Life Insurance Contract
hereby registered by this Registration Statement, in the aggregate, are
reasonable in relation to the services rendered, the expenses expected to be
incurred, and the risks assumed by Glenbrook Life.
REPRESENTATIONS PURSUANT TO RULE 6E-3(T)
This filing is made pursuant to Rules 6c-3 and 6e-3(T) under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 ("Investment Company Act").
RULE 484 UNDERTAKING
The By-Laws of Glenbrook Life and Annuity Company ("Glenbrook Life") which
are incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 1(A)(6)(b), provide that it will
indemnify its officers and directors for certain damages and expenses that may
be incurred in the performance of their duty to Glenbrook Life. No
indemnification is provided, however, when such person is adjudged to be liable
for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his or her duty, unless
indemnification is deemed appropriate by the court upon application. Insofar as
indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the
"Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Glenbrook
Life Variable Life Separate Account (the "Registrant") has been advised that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other
than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will,
unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
