GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF GET I

Series I of the Aetna GET Fund (GET I) is an investment option that may be
available during the accumulation phase of the contract. Aetna Life Insurance
and Annuity Company (the Company, we, our) makes a guarantee, as described
below, when you direct money into GET I. Aeltus Investment Management, Inc.
serves as investment adviser to GET I.

We will offer GET I shares only during its offering period, which is scheduled
to run from March 15, 2000 through the close of business on June 14, 2000. GET
I may not be available under your contract, your plan or in your state. Please
read the GET I prospectus for a more complete description of GET I, including
its charges and expenses.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE OF GET I

GET I seeks to achieve maximum total return, without compromising a minimum
targeted return, by participating in favorable equity market performance during
the guarantee period.

GET I's guarantee period runs from June 15, 2000 through June 14, 2005. During
the offering period, all GET I assets will be invested in short-term
instruments, and during the guarantee period will be invested in a combination
of fixed income and equity securities.

THE GET FUND GUARANTEE

The guarantee period for GET I will end on June 14, 2005 which is GET I's
maturity date. The Company guarantees that the value of an accumulation unit of
the GET I subaccount under the contract on the maturity date (as valued after
the close of business on June 14, 2005) will not be less than its value as
determined after the close of business on the last day of the offering period.
If the value on the maturity date is lower than it was on the last day of the
offering period, we will transfer funds from our general account to the GET I
subaccount to make up the difference. This means that if you remain invested in
GET I until the maturity date, at the maturity date you will receive no less
than the value of your separate account investment directed to GET I as of the
last day of the offering period, less any maintenance fees or any amounts you
transfer or withdraw from the GET I subaccount. The value of dividends and
distributions made by GET I throughout the guarantee period is taken into
account in determining whether, for purposes of the guarantee, the value of
your GET I investment on the maturity date is no less than its value as of the
last day of the offering period. The guarantee does not promise that you will
earn the fund's minimum targeted return referred to in the investment
objective.

If you withdraw or transfer funds from GET I before the maturity date, we will
process the transactions at the actual unit value next determined after we
receive your order. The guarantee will not apply to these amounts or to amounts
deducted as a maintenance fee, if applicable.

MATURITY DATE

Before the maturity date, we will send a notice to each contract holder who has
amounts in GET I. This notice will remind you that the maturity date is
approaching and that you must choose other investment options for your GET I
amounts. If you do not make a choice, on the maturity date we will transfer
your GET I amounts to another available series of the GET Fund that is
accepting deposits. If no GET Fund series is available, we will transfer your
GET I amounts to the fund or funds designated by the Company.

(4) The investment adviser is contractually obligated through GET I's maturity
    date to waive all or a portion of its investment advisory fee and/or its
    administrative fee and/or to reimburse a portion of the fund's other
    expenses in order to ensure that GET I's Total Fund Annual Expenses do not
    exceed 0.75% of the fund's average daily net assets. It is not expected that
    GET I's actual expenses without this waiver or reimbursement will exceed
    this amount.

The following information supplements "Appendix III--Description of Underlying
Funds" contained in the prospectus:


Aetna GET Fund (Series I)

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

Seeks to achieve maximum total return without compromising a minimum targeted
return (Targeted Return) by participating in favorable equity market
performance during the guarantee period, from June 15, 2000 through June 14,
2005, the maturity date.

POLICIES

Prior to June 15, 2000, assets are invested entirely in short-term instruments.
After that date, assets are allocated between equities and fixed income
securities. Equities consist primarily of common stocks. Fixed income
securities consist primarily of short- to intermediate-duration U.S. Government
securities and may also consist of mortgage backed securities and corporate
obligations. The investment adviser uses a proprietary computer model to
determine the percentage of assets to allocate between the fixed and the equity
components. As the value of the equity component declines, more assets are
allocated to the fixed component.

RISKS

The principal risks of investing in Series I are those generally attributable
to stock and bond investing. The success of Series I's strategy depends on the
investment adviser's skill in allocating assets between the equity and fixed
components and in selecting investments within each component. Because Series I
invests in both stocks and bonds, it may underperform stock funds when stocks
are in favor and underperform bond funds when bonds are in favor. The risks
associated with investing in stocks include sudden and unpredictable drops in
the value of the market as a whole and periods of lackluster or negative
performance. The principal risk associated with investing in bonds is that
interest rates may rise, which generally causes bond prices to fall. If at the
inception of, or any time during, the guarantee period interest rates are low,
Series I assets may be largely invested in the fixed component in order to
increase the likelihood of achieving the Targeted Return at the maturity date.
The effect of low interest rates on Series I would likely be more pronounced at
the beginning of the guarantee period as the initial allocation of assets would
include more fixed income securities. In addition, if during the guarantee
period the equity markets experienced a major decline, Series I assets may
become largely invested in the fixed component in order to increase the
likelihood of achieving the Targeted Return at the maturity date. Use of the
fixed component reduces Series I's ability to participate as fully in upward
equity market movements, and therefore represents some loss of opportunity, or
opportunity cost, compared to a portfolio that is fully invested in equities.

                         GENERAL INFORMATION AND HISTORY

Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company (the Company, we, us, our) issues the
contract described in the prospectus and is responsible for providing each
contract's insurance and annuity benefits. We are a stock life insurance company
which was organized under the insurance laws of the State of Connecticut in 1976
and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Aetna Inc. Through a merger, our
assets include the business of Aetna Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company
(formerly Participating Annuity Life Insurance Company organized in 1954). Our
Home Office is located at 151 Farmington Avenue, Hartford, Connecticut 06156.

As of December 31, 1998, the Company and its subsidiary life company had $43
billion invested through its products, including $29 billion in its separate
accounts (of which the Company or an affiliate oversees the management of $21
billion). The Company is ranked among the top 2% of all U.S. life insurance
companies rated by A.M. Best Company based on assets as of December 31, 1997.

In addition to serving as the principal underwriter and the depositor for the
separate account, the Company is a registered investment adviser under the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and a registered broker-dealer under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We provide investment advice to several of the
registered management investment companies offered as variable investment
options under the contracts funded by the separate account (see "Variable
Annuity Account B" below).

Other than the mortality and expense risk charge and administrative expense
charge described in the prospectus, all expenses incurred in the operations of
the separate account are borne by the Company. See "Fees" in the prospectus. We
receive reimbursement for certain administrative costs from some advisers of the
funds used as funding options under the contract. These fees generally range up
to 0.425%.

The assets of the separate account are held by the Company. The separate account
has no custodian. However, the funds in whose shares the assets of the separate
account are invested each have custodians, as discussed in their respective
prospectuses.

From this point forward, the term "contract" refers only to those offered
through the prospectus.

                           VARIABLE ANNUITY ACCOUNT B

Variable Annuity Account B is a separate account established by the Company for
the purpose of funding variable annuity contracts issued by the Company. The
separate account is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a
unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
Purchase payments to accounts under the contract may be allocated to one or more
of the subaccounts. Each subaccount invests in the shares of only one of the
funds listed below. We may make additions to, deletions from or substitutions of
available investment options as permitted by law and subject to the conditions
of the contract. The availability of the funds is subject to applicable
regulatory authorization. Not all funds are available in all jurisdictions.

The funds currently available under the contract are as follows:

                        OFFERING AND PURCHASE OF CONTRACT

The Company is both the depositor and the principal underwriter for the
securities sold under the prospectus. We offer the contract through life
insurance agents licensed to sell variable annuities who are registered
representatives of the Company or of other registered broker-dealers who have
sales agreements with the Company. The offering of the contract is continuous. A
description of the manner in which the contract is purchased can be found in the
prospectus under the sections entitled "Purchase and Rights" and "Your Account
Value."

                                PERFORMANCE DATA

GENERAL

From time to time, we may advertise different types of historical performance
for the subaccounts of the separate account available under the contract. We may
advertise the "standardized average annual total returns," calculated in a
manner prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "standardized
return"), as well as "non-standardized returns," both of which are described
below.

The standardized and non-standardized total return figures are computed
according to a formula in which a hypothetical initial purchase payment of
$1,000 is applied to the various subaccounts under the contract, and then
related to the ending redeemable values over one, five and ten year periods (or
fractional periods thereof). The redeemable value is then divided by the initial
investment and this quotient is taken to the Nth root (N represents the number
of years in the period) and 1 is subtracted from the result which is then
expressed as a percentage, carried to at least the nearest hundredth of a
percent. The standardized figures use the actual returns of the fund since the
date contributions were first received in the fund under the separate account,
adjusted to reflect the deduction of the maximum recurring charges under the
contract during each period (i.e., 1.45% mortality and expense risk charge for
Death Benefit Option II, $30 annual maintenance fee, 0.15% administrative
charge, and early withdrawal charge of 8% of purchase payments grading down to
0% after 8 years) and currently do not include any premium bonus. These charges
will be deducted on a pro rata basis in the case of fractional periods. The
maintenance fee is converted to a percentage of assets based on the average
account size under the contract described in the prospectus.

The non-standardized figures will be calculated in a similar manner, except that
they will not reflect the deduction of any applicable early withdrawal charge
and, in some advertisements, will also exclude the effect of the annual
maintenance fee. The deduction of the early withdrawal charge and the annual
maintenance fee would decrease the level of performance shown if reflected in
these calculations. The non-standardized figures may also include monthly,
quarterly, year-to-date and three-year periods, and may include returns
calculated from the fund's inception date and/or the date contributions were
first received in the fund under the separate account. The non-standardized
returns shown in the tables below reflect the deduction of the maximum recurring
charges under the contract except the early withdrawal charge.

Standardized and non-standardized calculations do not currently include the
premium bonus, but to the extent permitted by applicable law, we may include the
premium bonus in the standardized and non-standardized average annual total
returns in the future.

Investment results of the funds will fluctuate over time, and any presentation
of the subaccounts' total return quotations for any prior period should not be
considered as a representation of how the subaccounts will perform in any future
period. Additionally, the account value upon redemption may be more or less than
your original cost.

AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURN QUOTATIONS - Standardized and Non-Standardized

The tables below reflect the average annual standardized and non-standardized
total return quotation figures for the periods ended September 30, 1999 for the
subaccounts under the contract. The standardized returns assume the maximum
charges under the contract as described under "General" above. The
non-standardized returns assume the same charges but do not include the early
withdrawal charge. We may also advertise returns based on lower charges that
apply to contracts under Death Benefit Option I.

For the subaccounts funded by the Portfolio Partners portfolios, two sets of
performance returns are shown for each subaccount: one showing performance based
solely on the performance of the Portfolio Partners portfolio from November 28,
1997, the date the Portfolio commenced operations; and one quotation based on
(a) performance through November 26, 1997 of the fund it replaced under many
contracts and (b) after November 26, 1997, based on the performance of the
Portfolio Partners portfolio.

For those subaccounts where results are not available for the full calendar
period indicated, performance for such partial periods is shown in the column
labeled "Since Inception". For standardized performance, the "Since Inception"
column shows the average annual return since the date contributions were first
received in the fund under the separate account. For non-standardized
performance, the "Since Inception" column shows the average annual total return
since the fund's inception date.

</TABLE>
Please refer to the discussion preceding the tables for an explanation of the
charges included and methodology used in calculating the standardized and
non-standardized figures. These figures represent historical performance and
should not be considered a projection of future performance.
* Reflects performance from the date contributions were first received in the
  fund under the separate account.
(1)  These funds have been available through the separate
     account for more than ten years.
(2)  The current yield for the subaccount for the seven-day period ended
     September 30, 1999 (on an annualized basis) was 3.41%. Current yield more
     closely reflects current earnings than does total return. The current yield
     reflects the deduction of all charges under the contract that are deducted
     from the total return quotations shown above except the maximum 8% early
     withdrawal charge.
(3)  The fund first listed was replaced with the applicable Portfolio Partners
     Portfolio after the close of business on November 26, 1997. The performance
     shown is based on the performance of the replaced fund until November 26,
     1997, and the performance of the applicable Portfolio Partners Portfolio
     after that date. The replaced fund may not have been available under all
     contracts. The "Date Contributions First Received Under the Separate
     Account" refers to the applicable date for the replaced fund.

should not be considered a projection of future performance.
** Reflects performance from the fund's inception date.
(1)  These funds have been in operation for more than ten years.
(2)  The current yield for the subaccount for the seven-day period ended
     September 30, 1999 (on an annualized basis) was 3.41%. Current yield more
     closely reflects current earnings than does total return. The current yield
     reflects the deduction of all charges under the contract that are deducted
     from the total return quotations shown above. As in the table above, the
     maximum 8% early withdrawal charge is not reflected.
(3)  The fund first listed was replaced with the applicable Portfolio Partners
     Portfolio after the close of business on November 26, 1997. The performance
     shown is based on the performance of the replaced fund until November 26,
     1997, and the performance of the applicable Portfolio Partners Portfolio
     after that date. The replaced fund may not have been available under all
     contracts. The "Fund Inception Date" refers to the applicable date for the
     replaced fund. If no date is shown, the replaced fund has been in operation
     for more than ten years.

                              INCOME PHASE PAYMENTS

When you begin receiving payments under the contract during the income phase
(see "The Income Phase" in the prospectus), the value of your account is
determined using the accumulation unit values as of the tenth valuation before
the first income phase payment is due. Such value (less any applicable premium
tax) is applied to provide income phase payments to you in accordance with the
income phase payment option and investment options elected.

The annuity option tables found in the contract show, for each option, the
amount of the first income phase payment for each $1,000 of value applied.
Thereafter, variable income phase payments fluctuate as the annuity unit
value(s) fluctuates with the investment experience of the selected investment
option(s). The first income phase payment and subsequent payments also vary
depending on the assumed net investment rate selected (3.5% or 5% per annum).
Selection of a 5% rate causes a higher first income phase payment, but payments
will increase thereafter only to the extent that the investment performance of
the subaccounts you selected is greater than 5% annually, after deduction of
fees. Income phase payments would decline if the performance was less than 5%.
Use of the 3.5% assumed rate causes a lower first income phase payment, but
subsequent payments would increase more rapidly or decline more slowly as
changes occur in the performance of the subaccounts selected.

When the income phase begins, the annuitant is credited with a fixed number of
annuity units (which does not change thereafter) in each of the designated
investment options. This number is calculated by dividing (a) by (b), where (a)
is the amount of the first income phase payment based on a particular investment
option, and (b) is the then current annuity unit value for that investment
option. As noted, annuity unit values fluctuate from one valuation to the next
(see "Your Account Value" in the prospectus); such fluctuations reflect changes
in the net investment factor for the appropriate subaccount(s) (with a ten
valuation lag which gives the Company time to process income phase payments) and
a mathematical adjustment which offsets the assumed net investment rate of 3.5%
or 5% per annum.

The operation of all these factors can be illustrated by the following
hypothetical example. These procedures will be performed separately for the
investment options selected during the income phase.

EXAMPLE:

Assume that, at the date income phase payments are to begin, there are 3,000
accumulation units credited under a particular contract and that the value of an
accumulation unit for the tenth valuation prior to retirement was $13.650000.
This produces a total value of $40,950.

Assume also that no premium tax is payable and that the annuity table in the
contract provides, for the income phase payment option elected, a first monthly
variable payment of $6.68 per $1000 of value applied; the annuitant's first
monthly income phase payment would thus be $40.950 multiplied by $6.68, or
$273.55.

Assume then that the value of an annuity unit upon the valuation on which the
first income phase payment was due was $13.400000. When this value is divided
into the first monthly payment, the number of annuity units is determined to be
20.414. The value of this number of annuity units will be paid in each
subsequent month.

If the net investment factor with respect to the appropriate subaccount is
1.0015000 as of the tenth valuation preceding the due date of the second monthly
income phase payment, multiplying this factor by .9999058* (to neutralize the
assumed net investment rate of 3.5% per annum built into the number of annuity
units determined above) produces a result of 1.0014057. This is then multiplied
by the annuity unit value for the prior valuation (assume such value to be
$13.504376) to produce an annuity unit value of $13.523359 for the valuation
occurring when the second payment is due. The second monthly payment is then
determined by multiplying the number of annuity units by the current annuity
unit value, or times $13.523359, which produces a payment of $276.07.

*If an assumed net investment rate of 5% is elected, the appropriate factor to
neutralize such assumed rate would be .9998663.

                         SALES MATERIAL AND ADVERTISING

We may include hypothetical illustrations in our sales literature that explain
the mathematical principles of dollar cost averaging, compounded interest, tax
deferred accumulation, and the mechanics of variable annuity contracts. We may
also discuss the difference between variable annuity contracts and other types
of savings or investment products such as personal savings accounts and
certificates of deposit.

                                                                               4
<PAGE>

We may distribute sales literature that compares the percentage change in
accumulation unit values for any of the subaccounts to established market
indices such as the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index and the Dow Jones
Industrial Average or to the percentage change in values of other management
investment companies that have investment objectives similar to the subaccount
being compared.

We may publish in advertisements and reports, the ratings and other information
assigned to us by one or more independent rating organizations such as A.M. Best
Company, Duff & Phelps, Standard & Poor's Corporation and Moody's Investors
Service, Inc. The purpose of the ratings is to reflect our financial strength
and/or claims-paying ability. We may also quote ranking services such as
Morningstar's Variable Annuity/Life Performance Report and Lipper's Variable
Insurance Products Performance Analysis Service (VIPPAS), which rank variable
annuity or life subaccounts or their underlying funds by performance and/or
investment objective. We may categorize the underlying funds in terms of the
asset classes they represent and use such categories in marketing materials for
the contract. We may illustrate in advertisements the performance of the
underlying funds, if accompanied by performance which also shows the performance
of such funds reduced by applicable charges under the separate account. We may
also show in advertisements the portfolio holdings of the underlying funds,
updated at various intervals. From time to time, we will quote articles from
newspapers and magazines or other publications or reports such as The Wall
Street Journal, Money magazine, USA Today and The VARDS Report.

We may provide in advertising, sales literature, periodic publications or other
materials information on various topics of interest to current and prospective
contract holders. These topics may include the relationship between sectors of
the economy and the economy as a whole and its effect on various securities
markets, investment strategies and techniques (such as value investing, market
timing, dollar cost averaging, asset allocation, constant ratio transfer and
account rebalancing), the advantages and disadvantages of investing in
tax-deferred and taxable investments, customer profiles and hypothetical
purchase and investment scenarios, financial management and tax and retirement
planning, and investment alternatives to certificates of deposit and other
financial instruments, including comparison between the contract and the
characteristics of and market for such financial instruments.

Variable Annuity Account B

Notes to Financial Statements - December 31, 1998

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

   Variable Annuity Account B (the "Account") is a separate account established
   by Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company (the "Company") registered under
   the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a unit investment trust. The Account is
   sold exclusively for use with variable annuity contracts that may be entitled
   to tax-deferred treatment under specific sections of the Internal Revenue
   Code of 1986, as amended.

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
   accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
   that affect amounts reported therein. Although actual results could differ
   from these estimates, any such differences are expected to be immaterial to
   the net assets of the Account.

   a. Valuation of Investments

   Investments in the following Funds are stated at the closing net asset value
   per share as determined by each Fund on December 31, 1998:

Variable Annuity Account B

Notes to Financial Statements - December 31, 1998 (continued):

   b. Other

   Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis and dividend
   income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. The cost of investments sold is
   determined by specific identification.

   c. Federal Income Taxes

   The operations of the Account form a part of, and are taxed with, the total
   operations of the Company which is taxed as a life insurance company under
   the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

   d. Annuity Reserves

   Annuity reserves held in the Separate Accounts are computed for currently
   payable contracts according to the Progressive Annuity, a49, 1971 Individual
   Annuity Mortality, 1971 Group Annuity Mortality, 83a, and 1983 Group Annuity
   Mortality tables using various assumed interest rates not to exceed seven
   percent. Mortality experience is monitored by the Company. Charges to annuity
   reserves for mortality experience are reimbursed to the Company if the
   reserves required are less than originally estimated. If additional reserves
   are required, the Company reimburses the Account.


2. Valuation Period Deductions

   Deductions by the Account for mortality and expense risk charges are made in
   accordance with the terms of the contracts and are paid to the Company.


3. Dividend Income

   On an annual basis, the Funds distribute substantially all of their taxable
   income and realized capital gains to their shareholders. Distributions to the
   Account are automatically reinvested in shares of the Funds. The Account's
   proportionate share of each Fund's undistributed net investment income
   (distributions in excess of net investment income) and accumulated net
   realized gain (loss) on investments is included in net unrealized gain (loss)
   in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.


4. Purchases and Sales of Investments

   The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investments other than
   short-term investments for the years ended December 31, 1998 and December 31,
   1997 aggregated $2,351,952,353 and $1,555,519,398; $1,874,026,188 and
   $1,004,789,371, respectively.

                         Independent Auditors' Report



The Board of Directors of Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company and Contract
 Owners of Variable Annuity Account B:



We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Aetna
Life Insurance and Annuity Company Variable Annuity Account B (the "Account") as
of December 31, 1998, and the related statements of operations and changes in
net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and condensed
financial information for the year ended December 31, 1998. These financial
statements and condensed financial information are the responsibility of the
Account's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and condensed financial information 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 and condensed
financial information are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements and condensed financial information. Our procedures
included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 1998, by
correspondence with the custodian. 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, the financial statements and condensed financial information
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company Variable Annuity Account B
as of December 31, 1998, the results of its operations and changes in its net
assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and condensed
financial information for the year ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

Variable Annuity Account B
Notes to Financial Statements - September 30, 1999 (Unaudited)

1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

   Variable Annuity Account B (the "Account") is a separate account
   established by Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company (the "Company")
   registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a unit investment
   trust. The Account is sold exclusively for use with variable annuity
   contracts that may be entitled to tax-deferred treatment under specific
   sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
   accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
   assumptions that affect amounts reported therein. Although actual results
   could differ from these estimates, any such differences are expected to be
   immaterial to the net assets of the Account.

   a. Valuation of Investments

   Investments in the following Funds are stated at the closing net asset
   value per share as determined by each Fund on September 30, 1999:

Variable Annuity Account B
Notes to Financial Statements - September 30, 1999 (Unaudited & continued):

   b. Other

   Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis and
   dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. The cost of
   investments sold is determined by specific identification.

   c. Federal Income Taxes

   The operations of the Account form a part of, and are taxed with, the total
   operations of the Company which is taxed as a life insurance company under
   the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

   d. Annuity Reserves

   Annuity reserves held in the Separate Accounts are computed for currently
   payable contracts according to the Progressive Annuity, a49, 1971
   Individual Annuity Mortality, 1971 Group Annuity Mortality, 83a, and 1983
   Group Annuity Mortality tables using various assumed interest rates not to
   exceed seven percent. Mortality experience is monitored by the
   Company. Charges to annuity reserves for mortality experience are
   reimbursed to the Company if the reserves required are less than originally
   estimated. If additional reserves are required, the Company reimburses the
   Account.

2. Valuation Period Deductions

   Deductions by the Account for mortality and expense risk charges are made
   in accordance with the terms of the contracts and are paid to the Company.

3. Dividend Income

   On an annual basis, the Funds distribute substantially all of their taxable
   income and realized capital gains to their shareholders. Distributions to
   the Account are automatically reinvested in shares of the Funds. The
   Account's proportionate share of each Fund's undistributed net investment
   income (distributions in excess of net investment income) and accumulated
   net realized gain (loss) on investments is included in net unrealized gain
   (loss) in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

4. Purchases and Sales of Investments

   The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investments other than
   short-term investments for the years ended September 30, 1999 and September
   30, 1998 aggregated $2,372,340,161 and $1,425,865,744; $1,520,783,191 and
   $1,014,289,382, respectively.

                         Independent Auditors' Report



The Shareholder and Board of Directors
Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company:


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Aetna Life
Insurance and Annuity Company and Subsidiary as of December 31, 1998 and 1997,
and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholder's
equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended
December 31, 1998. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements 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
statements presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.


In our opinion, the aforementioned consolidated financial statements present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Aetna Life
Insurance and Annuity Company and Subsidiary at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in
the three-year period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.




                                                              /s/ KPMG LLP

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


   Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company and its wholly owned subsidiary
   (collectively, the "Company") are providers of financial services in the
   United States. Prior to the sale of the domestic individual life insurance
   business on October 1, 1998, the Company had two business segments: financial
   services and individual life insurance. On October 1, 1998, the Company sold
   its domestic individual life insurance operations to Lincoln National
   Corporation ("Lincoln") and accordingly they are now classified as
   Discontinued Operations. (Refer to note 2)


   Financial services products include annuity contracts that offer a variety of
   funding and payout options for individual and employer-sponsored retirement
   plans qualified under Internal Revenue Code Sections 401, 403, 408 and 457,
   and non-qualified annuity contracts. These contracts may be deferred or
   immediate ("payout annuities"). Financial services also include investment
   advisory services and pension plan administrative services.


   Discontinued Operations include universal life, variable universal life,
   traditional whole life and term insurance.


   Basis of Presentation
   ---------------------


   The consolidated financial statements include Aetna Life Insurance and
   Annuity Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Aetna Insurance Company of
   America. Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company is a wholly owned
   subsidiary of Aetna Retirement Holdings, Inc. ("HOLDCO"). HOLDCO is a wholly
   owned subsidiary of Aetna Retirement Services, Inc. ("ARS"), whose ultimate
   parent is Aetna Inc. ("Aetna").


   The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
   generally accepted accounting principles. Certain reclassifications have been
   made to 1997 and 1996 financial information to conform to the 1998
   presentation.


   New Accounting Standards
   ------------------------


   Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information


   As of December 31, 1998, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standard
   ("FAS") No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
   Information. This statement establishes standards for the reporting of
   information relating to operating segments. This statement supersedes FAS No.
   14, Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise, which requires
   reporting segment information by industry and geographic area (industry
   approach). Under FAS No. 131, operating segments are defined as components of
   a company for which separate financial information is available and is used
   by management to allocate resources and assess performance (management
   approach). The adoption of this statement did not change the composition or
   the results of operations of any of the operating segments of the Company,
   which are consistent with the management approach.

   Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed and Obtained for
   Internal Use


   On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1,
   Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for
   Internal Use, issued by the American Institute of Certified Public
   Accountants ("AICPA"). This statement requires that certain costs incurred in
   developing internal use computer software (in process at, and subsequent to
   the adoption date) be capitalized, and provides guidance for determining
   whether computer software is considered to be for internal use. The Company
   amortizes these costs over a period of 3 to 5 years. Previously, the Company
   expensed the cost of internal-use computer software as incurred. The adoption
   of this statement resulted in a net after-tax increase to the results of
   operations of $6.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1998.


   Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
   Extinguishments of Liabilities


   In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FAS
   No. 125, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
   Extinguishments of Liabilities, that provides accounting and reporting
   standards for transfers of financial assets and extinguishments of
   liabilities. FAS No. 125 was effective for 1997 financial statements;
   however, certain provisions relating to accounting for repurchase agreements
   and securities lending were not effective until January 1, 1998. The adoption
   of those provisions effective in 1998 did not have a material effect on the
   Company's financial position or results of operations.


   Future Application of Accounting Standards
   ------------------------------------------


   Deposit Accounting: Accounting for Insurance and Reinsurance Contracts That
     Do Not Transfer Insurance Risk


   In October 1998, the AICPA issued SOP 98-7, Deposit Accounting: Accounting
   for Insurance and Reinsurance Contracts That Do Not Transfer Insurance Risk,
   which provides guidance on how to account for all insurance and reinsurance
   contracts that do not transfer insurance risk, except for long-duration life
   and health insurance contracts. This statement is effective for the Company's
   financial statements beginning January 1, 2000, with early adoption
   permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of
   this statement and the potential effect on its financial position and results
   of operations.


   Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities


   In June 1998, the FASB issued FAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
   Instruments and Hedging Activities. This standard requires companies to
   record all derivatives on the balance sheet as either assets or liabilities
   and measure those instruments at fair value. The manner in which companies
   are to record gains or losses resulting from changes in the values of those
   derivatives depends on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for
   hedge accounting. This standard is effective for the Company's financial
   statements beginning January 1, 2000, with early adoption permitted. The
   Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this statement and
   the potential effect on its financial position and results of operations.

   Accounting by Insurance and Other Enterprises for Insurance-Related
   Assessments



   In December 1997, the AICPA issued SOP 97-3, Accounting by Insurance and
   Other Enterprises for Insurance-Related Assessments, which provides guidance
   for determining when an insurance or other enterprise should recognize a
   liability for guaranty-fund and other insurance-related assessments and
   guidance for measuring the liability. This statement is effective for 1999
   financial statements with early adoption permitted. The Company does not
   expect adoption of this statement to have a material effect on its financial
   position or results of operations.


   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 reported results using those
   estimates.



   Cash and Cash Equivalents
   -------------------------


   Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, money market instruments and
   other debt issues with a maturity of 90 days or less when purchased.


   Investments
   -----------


   Debt and equity securities are classified as available for sale and carried
   at fair value. These securities are written down (as realized capital losses)
   for other than temporary declines in value. Unrealized capital gains and
   losses related to available-for-sale investments, other than amounts
   allocable to experience-rated contractholders, are reflected in shareholder's
   equity, net of related taxes.


   Fair values for debt and equity securities are based on quoted market prices
   or dealer quotations. Where quoted market prices or dealer quotations are not
   available, fair values are measured utilizing quoted market prices for
   similar securities or by using discounted cash flow methods. Cost for
   mortgage-backed securities is adjusted for unamortized premiums and
   discounts, which are amortized using the interest method over the estimated
   remaining term of the securities, adjusted for anticipated prepayments. The
   Company does not accrue interest on problem debt securities when management
   believes the collection of interest is unlikely.


   The Company engages in securities lending whereby certain securities from its
   portfolio are loaned to other institutions for short periods of time. Initial
   collateral, primarily cash, is required at a rate of 102% of the market value
   of a loaned domestic security and 105% of the market value of a loaned
   foreign security. The collateral is deposited by the borrower with a lending
   agent, and retained and invested by the lending agent according to the
   Company's guidelines to generate additional income. The market value of the
   loaned securities is monitored on a daily basis with additional collateral
   obtained or refunded as the market value of the loaned securities fluctuates.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)


1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)


   At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company loaned securities (which are
   reflected as invested assets) with a fair value of approximately $277.3
   million and $385.1 million, respectively.


   Purchases and sales of debt and equity securities are recorded on the trade
   date.


   The investment in affiliated mutual funds represents an investment in Aetna
   managed mutual funds which have been seeded by the Company, and is carried at
   fair value.


   Mortgage loans and policy loans are carried at unpaid principal balances, net
   of impairment reserves. Sales of mortgage loans are recorded on the closing
   date.


   Short-term investments, consisting primarily of money market instruments and
   other debt issues purchased with an original maturity of 91 days to one year,
   are considered available for sale and are carried at fair value, which
   approximates amortized cost.


   The Company utilizes futures contracts for other than trading purposes in
   order to hedge interest rate risk (i.e. market risk, refer to Note 4.)


   Futures contracts are carried at fair value and require daily cash
   settlement. Changes in the fair value of futures contracts allocable to
   experience rated contracts are deducted from capital gains and losses with an
   offsetting amount reported in future policy benefits. Changes in the fair
   value of futures contracts allocable to non-experienced-rated contracts that
   qualify as hedges are deferred and recognized as an adjustment to the hedged
   asset or liability. Deferred gains or losses on such futures contracts are
   amortized over the life of the acquired asset or liability as a yield
   adjustment or through net realized capital gains or losses upon disposal of
   an asset. Changes in the fair value of futures contracts that do not qualify
   as hedges are recorded in net realized capital gains or losses. Hedge
   designation requires specific asset or liability identification, a
   probability at inception of high correlation with the position underlying the
   hedge, and that high correlation be maintained throughout the hedge period.
   If a hedging instrument ceases to be highly correlated with the position
   underlying the hedge, hedge accounting ceases at that date and excess gains
   or losses on the hedging instrument are reflected in net realized capital
   gains or losses.


   Included in common stock are warrants which represent the right to purchase
   specific securities. Upon exercise, the cost of the warrants is added to the
   basis of the securities purchased.


   Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs
   ---------------------------------


   Certain costs of acquiring insurance business are deferred. These costs, all
   of which vary with and are primarily related to the production of new and
   renewal business, consist principally of commissions, certain expenses of
   underwriting and issuing contracts, and certain agency expenses. For fixed
   ordinary life contracts (prior to the sale of the domestic individual life
   insurance business to Lincoln on October 1, 1998, refer to Note 2), such
   costs are amortized over expected premium-paying periods (up to 20 years).
   For universal life (prior to the sale of the domestic individual life
   insurance business to Lincoln on October 1, 1998, refer to Note 2), and
   certain annuity contracts,


                                      F-10
<PAGE>



Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)


1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

   such costs are amortized in proportion to estimated gross profits and
   adjusted to reflect actual gross profits over the life of the contracts (up
   to 50 years for universal life and up to 20 years for certain annuity
   contracts). Deferred policy acquisition costs are written off to the extent
   that it is determined that future policy premiums and investment income or
   gross profits are not adequate to cover related losses and expenses.


   Insurance Reserve Liabilities
   -----------------------------


   Future policy benefits include reserves for universal life, immediate
   annuities with life contingent payouts and traditional life insurance
   contracts. Prior to the sale of the domestic individual life insurance
   business on October 1, 1998, (refer to note 2), reserves for universal life
   products were equal to cumulative deposits less withdrawals and charges plus
   credited interest thereon, plus (less) net realized capital gains (losses)
   (which were reflected through credited interest rates). These reserves also
   included unrealized capital gains (losses) related to FAS No. 115. As a
   result of the sale and transfer of assets supporting the business, reserves
   for universal life products will no longer include net realized capital gains
   (losses) and unrealized gains (losses) related to FAS No. 115 for the years
   ended December 31, 1998 and beyond.


   Reserves for immediate annuities with life contingent payouts and traditional
   life insurance contracts are for immediate annuities with life
   contingent-payouts and traditional life insurance contracts are computed on
   the basis of assumed investment yield, mortality, and expenses, including a
   margin for adverse deviations. Such assumptions generally vary by plan, year
   of issue and policy duration. Reserve interest rates range from 1.50% to
   11.25% for all years presented. Investment yield is based on the Company's
   experience. Mortality and withdrawal rate assumptions are based on relevant
   Aetna experience and are periodically reviewed against both industry
   standards and experience.


   Because the sale of the domestic individual life insurance business was
   substantially in the form of an indemnity reinsurance agreement, the Company
   reported an addition to its reinsurance recoverable approximating the
   Company's total individual life reserves at the sale date.


   Policyholders' funds left with the Company include reserves for deferred
   annuity investment contracts and immediate annuities without life contingent
   payouts. Reserves on such contracts are equal to cumulative deposits less
   charges and withdrawals plus credited interest thereon (rates range from
   3.00% to 8.10% for all years presented) net of adjustments for investment
   experience that the Company is entitled to reflect in future credited
   interest. These reserves also include unrealized gains/losses related to FAS
   No. 115. Reserves on contracts subject to experience rating reflect the
   rights of contractholders, plan participants and the Company.


   Unpaid claims for all lines of insurance include benefits for reported losses
   and estimates of benefits for losses incurred but not reported.

   Premiums, Charges Assessed Against Policyholders, Benefits and Expenses
   -----------------------------------------------------------------------


   For universal life (prior to the sale of the domestic individual life
   insurance business to Lincoln on October 1, 1998, refer to Note 2) and
   certain annuity contracts, charges assessed against policyholders' funds for
   the cost of insurance, surrender charges, actuarial margin and other fees are
   recorded as revenue in charges assessed against policyholders. Other amounts
   received for these contracts are reflected as deposits and are not recorded
   as revenue. Life insurance premiums, other than premiums for universal life
   (prior to the sale of the domestic individual life insurance business to
   Lincoln on October 1, 1998, refer to Note 2) and certain annuity contracts,
   are recorded as premium revenue when due. Related policy benefits are
   recorded in relation to the associated premiums or gross profit so that
   profits are recognized over the expected lives of the contracts. When annuity
   payments with life contingencies begin under contracts that were initially
   investment contracts, the accumulated balance in the account is treated as a
   single premium for the purchase of an annuity and reflected as an offsetting
   amount in both premiums and current and future benefits in the Consolidated
   Statements of Income.


   Separate Accounts
   -----------------


   Assets held under variable universal life and variable annuity contracts are
   segregated in Separate Accounts and are invested, as designated by the
   contractholder or participant under a contract (who bears the investment risk
   subject, in some cases, to minimum guaranteed rates) in shares of mutual
   funds which are managed by an affiliate of the Company, or other selected
   mutual funds not managed by the Company.


   As of December 31, 1998, Separate Accounts assets are carried at fair value.
   At December 31, 1998, unrealized gains of $10.0 million, after taxes, on
   assets supporting a guaranteed interest option are reflected in shareholder's
   equity. At December 31, 1997, Separate Account assets supporting the
   guaranteed interest option were carried at an amortized cost of $658.6
   million (fair value $668.7 million). Separate Accounts liabilities are
   carried at fair value, except for those relating to the guaranteed interest
   option. Reserves relating to the guaranteed interest option are maintained at
   fund value and reflect interest credited at rates ranging from 3.00% to 8.10%
   in 1998 and 4.10% to 8.10% in 1997.


   Separate Accounts assets and liabilities are shown as separate captions in
   the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deposits, investment income and net realized
   and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Separate Accounts are not
   reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements (with the exception of
   realized and unrealized capital gains and losses on the assets supporting the
   guaranteed interest option). The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows do not
   reflect investment activity of the Separate Accounts.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)


1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)


   Reinsurance
   -----------


   The Company utilizes indemnity reinsurance agreements to reduce its exposure
   to large losses in all aspects of its insurance business. Such reinsurance
   permits recovery of a portion of losses from reinsurers, although it does not
   discharge the primary liability of the Company as direct insurer of the risks
   reinsured. The Company evaluates the financial strength of potential
   reinsurers and continually monitors the financial condition of reinsurers.
   Only those reinsurance recoverables deemed probable of recovery are reflected
   as assets on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. The majority of the
   reinsurance recoverable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31,
   1998 is related to the reinsurance recoverable from Lincoln arising from the
   sale of the domestic life insurance business. (Refer to Note 2)


   Income Taxes
   ------------


   The Company is included in the consolidated federal income tax return of
   Aetna. The Company is taxed at regular corporate rates after adjusting income
   reported for financial statement purposes for certain items. Deferred income
   tax expenses/benefits result from changes during the year in cumulative
   temporary differences between the tax basis and book basis of assets and
   liabilities.


2. Discontinued Operations-Individual Life Insurance


   On October 1, 1998, the Company sold its domestic individual life insurance
   business to Lincoln for $1 billion in cash. The transaction was generally in
   the form of an indemnity reinsurance arrangement, under which Lincoln
   contractually assumed from the Company certain policyholder liabilities and
   obligations, although the Company remains directly obligated to
   policyholders. Insurance reserves ceded as of December 31, 1998 were $2.9
   billion. Deferred policy acquisition costs related to the life policies of
   $907.9 million were written off against the gain on the sale. Certain
   invested assets related to and supporting the life policies were sold to
   consummate the life sale, and the Company recorded a reinsurance recoverable
   from Lincoln. The transaction resulted in an after-tax gain on the sale of
   approximately $117 million, of which $58 million will be deferred and
   amortized over approximately 15 years (as profits in the book of business
   sold emerge). The remaining portion of the gain was recognized immediately in
   net income and was largely attributed to the sale of the domestic life
   insurance business for access to the agency sales force and brokerage
   distribution channel. The unamortized portion of the gain is presented in
   other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.


   The operating results of the domestic individual life insurance business are
   presented as Discontinued Operations. All prior year income statement data
   has been restated to reflect the presentation as Discontinued Operations.
   Revenues for the individual life segment were $652.2 million, $620.4 million
   and $445.7 million for 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Premiums ceded and
   reinsurance recoveries made in 1998 totaled $153.4 million and $57.7 million,
   respectively.

3. Investments (continued)


   There are various categories of CMOs which are subject to different degrees
   of risk from changes in interest rates and, for nonagency-backed CMOs,
   defaults. The principal risks inherent in holding CMOs are prepayment and
   extension risks related to dramatic decreases and increases in interest rates
   resulting in the repayment of principal from the underlying mortgages either
   earlier or later than originally anticipated. At December 31, 1998 and 1997,
   approximately 2% and 4%, respectively, of the Company's CMO holdings were
   invested in types of CMOs which are subject to more prepayment and extension
   risk than traditional CMOs (such as interest- or principal-only strips).


   Investments in equity securities available for sale as of December 31 were as

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

   Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on available
   market information and judgments about the financial instrument, such as
   estimates of timing and amount of future cash flows. Such estimates do not
   reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at
   one time the Company's entire holdings of a particular financial instrument,
   nor do they consider the tax impact of the realization of unrealized gains or
   losses. In many cases, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by
   comparison to independent markets, nor can the disclosed value be realized in
   immediate settlement of the instrument. In evaluating the Company's
   management of interest rate, price and liquidity risks, the fair values of
   all assets and liabilities should be taken into consideration, not only those
   presented above.

<PAGE>

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)


4. Financial Instruments (continued)


   The following valuation methods and assumptions were used by the Company in
   estimating the fair value of the above financial instruments:


   Mortgage loans: Fair values are estimated by discounting expected mortgage
   loan cash flows at market rates which reflect the rates at which similar
   loans would be made to similar borrowers. The rates reflect management's
   assessment of the credit quality and the remaining duration of the loans.


   Investment contract liabilities (included in Policyholders' funds left with
   the Company):


   With a fixed maturity: Fair value is estimated by discounting cash flows at
   interest rates currently being offered by, or available to, the Company for
   similar contracts.


   Without a fixed maturity: Fair value is estimated as the amount payable to
   the contractholder upon demand. However, the Company has the right under such
   contracts to delay payment of withdrawals which may ultimately result in
   paying an amount different than that determined to be payable on demand.


   Off-Balance-Sheet and Other Financial Instruments
   -------------------------------------------------


   Futures Contracts:


   Futures contracts are used to manage interest rate risk in the Company's bond
   portfolio. Futures contracts represent commitments to either purchase or sell
   securities at a specified future date and at a specified price or yield.
   Futures contracts trade on organized exchanges and, therefore, have minimal
   credit risk. Cash settlements are made daily based on changes in the prices
   of the underlying assets. The notional amounts, carrying values and estimated
   fair values of the Company's open treasury futures as of December 31, 1998
   were $250.9 million, $.1 million, and $.1 million, respectively.


   Warrants:


   Included in common stocks are warrants which are instruments giving the
   Company the right, but not the obligation to buy a security at a given price
   during a specified period. The carrying values and estimated fair values of
   the Company's warrants to purchase equity securities as of December 31, 1998
   were $1.5 million, respectively. The carrying values and estimated fair
   values as of December 31, 1997 were $.6 million, respectively.

   Debt Instruments with Derivative Characteristics:


   The Company also had investments in certain debt instruments with derivative
   characteristics, including those whose market value is at least partially
   determined by, among other things, levels of or changes in domestic and/or
   foreign interest rates (short- or long-term), exchange rates, prepayment
   rates, equity markets or credit ratings/spreads. The amortized cost and fair
   value of these securities, included in the debt securities portfolio, as of

6. Dividend Restrictions and Shareholder's Equity

   The Company paid $553.0 million and $17.3 million in cash dividends to HOLDCO
   in 1998 and 1997, respectively. Additionally, at December 31, 1998, the
   Company accrued $206.0 million in dividends. Of the $759.0 million dividends
   paid and accrued in 1998, $756.0 million (all of which was approved by the
   Insurance Commissioner of the State of Connecticut) was attributable to
   proceeds from the sale of the domestic individual life insurance business.


   In January 1999, the accrued dividends of $206.0 million were paid by the
   Company to HOLDCO. Further dividends to be paid by the Company to HOLDCO
   during 1999 will need to be approved by the Insurance Department of the State
   of Connecticut (the "Department") prior to payment.


   The Department recognizes as net income and shareholder's capital and surplus
   those amounts determined in conformity with statutory accounting practices
   prescribed or permitted by the Department, which differ in certain respects
   from generally accepted accounting principles. Statutory net income was
   $148.1 million, $80.5 million and $57.8 million for the years ended December
   31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Statutory capital and surplus was
   $773.0 million and $778.7 million as of December 31, 1998 and 1997,
   respectively.


   As of December 31, 1998, the Company does not utilize any statutory
   accounting practices which are not prescribed by state regulatory authorities
   that, individually or in the aggregate, materially affect statutory capital
   and surplus.


7. Capital Gains and Losses on Investment Operations


   Realized capital gains or losses are the difference between the carrying
   value and sale proceeds of specific investments sold.

8. Income Taxes


   The Company is included in the consolidated federal income tax return, the
   combined returns of Connecticut and New York, and the Illinois unitary state
   income tax returns of Aetna. Aetna allocates to each member an amount
   approximating the tax it would have incurred were it not a member of the
   consolidated group, and credits the member for the use of its tax saving
   attributes in the consolidated federal income tax return.


   Income taxes from continuing operations consist of the following:

</TABLE>

   Net unrealized capital gains and losses are presented in shareholder's equity
   net of deferred taxes. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, no valuation
   allowances were required for unrealized capital gains and losses.


   Management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will
   realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset. The Company expects
   sufficient taxable income in the future to realize the net deferred tax asset
   because of the Company's long-term history of having taxable income, which is
   projected to continue.


   The "Policyholders' Surplus Account," which arose under prior tax law, is
   generally that portion of a life insurance company's statutory income that
   has not been subject to taxation. As of December 31, 1983, no further
   additions could be made to the Policyholders' Surplus Account for tax return
   purposes under the Deficit Reduction Act of 1984. The balance in such account
   was approximately $17.2 million at December 31, 1998. This amount would be
   taxed only under certain conditions.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)


8. Income Taxes (Continued)

   No income taxes have been provided on this amount since management believes
   under current tax law the conditions under which such taxes would become
   payable are remote.


   The Internal Revenue Service (the "Service") has completed examinations of
   the consolidated federal income tax returns of Aetna through 1990.
   Discussions are being held with the Service with respect to proposed
   adjustments. Management believes there are adequate defenses against, or
   sufficient reserves to provide for, any such adjustments. The Service has
   commenced its examinations for the years 1991 through 1994.


9. Benefit Plans


   Aetna has noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering
   substantially all employees. Aetna's accrued pension cost has been allocated
   to its subsidiaries, including the Company, under an allocation based on
   eligible salaries. Data on a separate company basis regarding the
   proportionate share of the projected benefit obligation and plan assets is
   not available. The accumulated benefit obligation and plan assets are
   recorded by Aetna. As of the measurement date (i.e., September 30), the
   accumulated plan assets exceeded accumulated plan benefits. Allocated pretax
   charges to operations for the pension plan (based on the Company's total
   salary cost as a percentage of Aetna's total salary cost) were $0.8 million,
   $2.7 million and $4.3 million for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and
   1996, respectively.


   In addition to providing pension benefits, Aetna currently provides certain
   health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees. A
   comprehensive medical and dental plan is offered to all full-time employees
   retiring at age 50 with 15 years of service or at age 65 with 10 years of
   service. There is a cap on the portion of the cost paid by the Company
   relating to medical and dental benefits. Retirees are generally required to
   contribute to the plans based on their years of service with Aetna. The costs
   to the Company associated with the Aetna postretirement plans for 1998, 1997
   and 1996 were $0.9 million, $2.7 million and $1.8 million, respectively.


   As of December 31, 1996, Aetna transferred to the Company approximately $77.7
   million of accrued liabilities, primarily related to the pension and
   postretirement benefit plans described above, that had been previously
   recorded by Aetna. The after-tax amount of this transfer (approximately $50.5
   million) is reported as a reduction in retained earnings.


   The Company, in conjunction with Aetna, has a non-qualified pension plan
   covering certain agents. The plan provides pension benefits based on annual
   commission earnings. As of the measurement date (i.e., September 30), the
   accumulated plan assets exceeded accumulated plan benefits.


   The Company, in conjunction with Aetna, also provides certain postretirement
   health care and life insurance benefits for certain agents. The costs to the
   Company associated with the agents' postretirement plans for 1998, 1997 and
   1996 were $1.4 million, $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively.


   Effective January 1, 1999, the Company, in conjunction with Aetna, changed
   the formula for providing pension benefits from the existing final average
   pay formula to a cash balance formula,


                                      F-25

    which will credit employees annually with an amount equal to a percentage of
    eligible pay based on age and years of service as well as an interest credit
    based on individual account balances. The formula also provides for a
    transition period until December 1, 2006, which allows certain employees to
    receive vested benefits at the higher of the final average pay or cash
    balance formula. The changing of this formula will not have a material
    effect on the Company's results of operations, liquidity or financial
    condition.


    Incentive Savings Plan--Substantially all employees are eligible to
    participate in a savings plan under which designated contributions, which
    may be invested in common stock of Aetna or certain other investments, are
    matched, up to 5% of compensation, by Aetna. Pretax charges to operations
    for the incentive savings plan were $4.7 million, $4.4 million and $5.4
    million in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.


    Stock Plans--Aetna has a stock incentive plan that provides for stock
    options, deferred contingent common stock or equivalent cash awards or
    restricted stock to certain key employees. Executive and middle management
    employees may be granted options to purchase common stock of Aetna at or
    above the market price on the date of grant. Options generally become 100%
    vested three years after the grant is made, with one-third of the options
    vesting each year. Aetna does not recognize compensation expense for stock
    options granted at or above the market price on the date of grant under its
    stock incentive plans. In addition, executives may be granted incentive
    units which are rights to receive common stock or an equivalent value in
    cash. The incentive units may vest within a range from 0% to 175% at the end
    of a four year period based on the attainment of performance goals. The
    costs to the Company associated with the Aetna stock plans for 1998, 1997
    and 1996, were $4.1 million, $2.9 million and $8.1 million, respectively. As
    of December 31, 1996, Aetna transferred to the Company approximately $1.1
    million of deferred tax benefits related to stock options. This amount is
    reported as an increase in retained earnings. In 1998, other changes in
    shareholder's equity include an additional increase of $0.7 million
    reflecting revisions to the allocation of the deferred tax benefit.

    Investment Advisory and Other Fees
    ----------------------------------


    In February 1998 and May 1998, Aeltus Investment Management Inc. ("Aeltus"),
    an affiliate of the Company, assumed investment advisory services for Aetna
    managed mutual funds and variable funds (collectively, the Funds),
    respectively. In connection with that assumption of duties, Aeltus entered
    into participation agreements with the Company. Participation fees paid to
    the Company, from Aeltus, included in charges assessed against policyholders
    amounted to $26.9 million for 1998. Prior to assuming investment advisory
    services, Aeltus served as subadvisor to the Funds. Since August 1996,
    Aeltus has served as advisor for most of the Company's General Account
    assets. Fees paid by the Company to Aeltus, included in both charges
    assessed against policyholders and net investment income, on an annual
    basis, range from 0.06% to 0.55% of the average daily net assets under
    management. For the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, the
    Company paid $21.7 million, $45.5 million and $16.0 million, respectively,
    in such fees.


    Prior to February 1998 and May 1998, the Company served as investment
    advisor to the Funds. Under the advisory agreements, the funds paid the
    Company a daily fee which, on an annual basis, ranged,

    depending on the fund, from 0.25% to 0.85% of their average daily net
    assets. The Company is also compensated by the Separate Accounts (variable
    funds) for bearing mortality and expense risks pertaining to variable life
    and annuity contracts. Under the insurance and annuity contracts, the
    Separate Accounts pay the Company a daily fee which, on an annual basis is,
    depending on the product, up to 2.15% of their average daily net assets. The
    amount of compensation and fees received from the Funds and Separate
    Accounts, included in charges assessed against policyholders, amounted to
    $287.0 million, $271.2 million and $186.6 million in 1998, 1997 and 1996,
    respectively.


    Reinsurance Transactions
    ------------------------


    Since 1981, all domestic individual non-participating life insurance of
    Aetna and its subsidiaries has been issued by the Company. Effective
    December 31, 1988, the Company entered into a reinsurance agreement with
    Aetna Life Insurance Company ("Aetna Life") in which substantially all of
    the non-participating individual life and annuity business written by Aetna
    Life prior to 1981 was assumed by the Company. A $6.1 million and a $108.0
    million commission, paid by the Company to Aetna Life in 1996 and 1988,
    respectively, was capitalized as deferred policy acquisition costs. In
    consideration for the assumption of this business, a loan was established
    relating to the assets held by Aetna Life which support the insurance
    reserves. Effective January 1, 1997, this agreement was amended to
    transition (based on underlying investment rollover in Aetna Life) from a
    modified coinsurance to a coinsurance arrangement. As a result of this
    change, reserves were ceded to the Company from Aetna Life as investment
    rollover occurred and the loan previously established was reduced. The
    Company maintained insurance reserves of $574.5 million ($397.2 million
    relating to the modified coinsurance agreement and $177.3 million relating
    to the coinsurance agreement) as of December 31, 1997 relating to the
    business assumed. The fair value of the loan relating to assets held by
    Aetna Life was $412.3 million as of December 31, 1997 and was based upon the
    fair value of the underlying assets.


    Effective October 1, 1998, this agreement was fully transitioned to a
    coinsurance arrangement and this business along with the Company's direct
    domestic individual non-participating life insurance business was sold to
    Lincoln. (Refer to note 2).


    The operating results of the domestic individual life business are presented
    as Discontinued Operations. Premiums of $336.3 million, $176.7 million and
    $25.3 million and current and future benefits of $341.1 million, $183.9
    million and $39.5 million, were assumed in 1998, 1997 and 1996,
    respectively. Investment income of $17.0 million, $37.5 million and $44.1
    million was generated from the reinsurance loan to affiliate for the years
    ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.


    Prior to the sale of the domestic individual life insurance business to
    Lincoln on October 1, 1998, the Company's retention limit per individual
    life was $2.0 million and amounts in excess of this limit, up to a maximum
    of $8.0 million on any new individual life business was reinsured with Aetna
    Life on a yearly renewable term basis. Premium amounts related to this
    agreement were $2.0 million, $5.9 million and $5.2 million for 1998, 1997
    and 1996, respectively. This agreement was terminated effective October 1,
    1998.


    Effective October 1, 1997, the Company entered into a reinsurance agreement
    with Aetna Life to assume amounts in excess of $0.2 million for certain of
    its participating life insurance, on a yearly

    renewable term basis. Premium amounts related to this agreement were $4.4
    million and $0.7 million in 1998 and 1997, respectively. The business
    assumed under this agreement was retroceded to Lincoln effective October 1,
    1998.


    On December 16, 1988, the Company assumed $25.0 million of premium revenue
    from Aetna Life for the purchase and administration of a life contingent
    single premium variable payout annuity contract. In addition, the Company is
    also responsible for administering fixed annuity payments that are made to
    annuitants receiving variable payments. Reserves of $87.8 million and $32.5
    million were maintained for this contract as of December 31, 1998 and 1997,
    respectively.


    Capital Transactions
    --------------------


    The Company received a capital contribution of $9.3 million and $10.4
    million in cash from HOLDCO in 1998 and 1996, respectively. The Company
    received no capital contributions in 1997.


    The Company paid $553.0 million, $17.3 million and 3.5 million in cash
    dividends to HOLDCO in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Additionally, in
    1998, the Company accrued $206.0 million in dividends. (Refer to Note 6)


    Other
    -----


    Premiums due and other receivables include $1.6 million and $37.0 million
    due from affiliates in 1998 and 1997, respectively. Other liabilities
    include $2.2 million and $1.2 million due to affiliates for 1998 and 1997,
    respectively.


    As of December 31, 1998, Aetna transferred to the Company $0.7 million based
    on its decision not to settle state tax liabilities for the years 1998 and
    1997. The amount transferred as of December 31, 1997 was $2.5 million. This
    amount has been reported as an other change in retained earnings.


    Substantially all of the administrative and support functions of the Company
    are provided by Aetna and its affiliates. The financial statements reflect
    allocated charges for these services based upon measures appropriate for the
    type and nature of service provided.


11. Reinsurance


    On October 1, 1998, the Company sold its domestic individual life insurance
    business to Lincoln for $1 billion in cash. The transaction is generally in
    the form of an indemnity reinsurance arrangement, under which Lincoln
    contractually assumed from the Company certain policyholder liabilities and
    obligations, although the Company remains directly obligated to
    policyholders. (Refer to note 2)


    Effective January 1, 1998, 90% of the mortality risk on substantially all
    individual universal life product business written from June 1, 1991 through
    October 31, 1997 was reinsured externally. Beginning November 1, 1997, 90%
    of new business written on these products was reinsured externally.
    Effective October 1, 1998 this agreement was assigned from the third party
    reinsurer to Lincoln.

13. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities


    Commitments
    -----------


    Through the normal course of investment operations, the Company commits to
    either purchase or sell securities or money market instruments at a
    specified future date and at a specified price or yield. The inability of
    counterparties to honor these commitments may result in either higher or
    lower replacement cost. Also, there is likely to be a change in the value of
    the securities underlying the commitments. At December 31, 1998 and 1997,
    the Company had commitments to purchase investments of $68.7 million and
    $38.7 million, respectively. The fair value of the investments at December
    31, 1998 and 1997 approximated $68.9 million and $39.0 million,
    respectively.


    Litigation
    ----------


    The Company is involved in numerous lawsuits arising, for the most part, in
    the ordinary course of its business operations. While the ultimate outcome
    of litigation against the Company cannot be determined at this time, after
    consideration of the defenses available to the Company and any related
    reserves established, it is not expected to result in liability for amounts
    material to the financial condition of the Company, although it may
    adversely affect results of operations in future periods.

           AETNA LIFE INSURANCE AND ANNUITY COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
         (A wholly owned subsidiary of Aetna Retirement Holdings, Inc.)

              Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                  (unaudited)

1) Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity
Company ("ALIAC") and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Aetna Insurance Company of
America ("AICA") and Aetna Investment Adviser Holding Company, Inc.
(collectively, the "Company"). ALIAC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Aetna
Retirement Holdings, Inc. ("HOLDCO"). HOLDCO is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Aetna Retirement Services, Inc., whose ultimate parent is Aetna Inc. ("Aetna").
On July 1, 1999, HOLDCO contributed Aetna Investment Adviser Holding Company,
Inc., and its subsidiaries (collectively, "IA Holdco") to the Company (refer to
Note 2). As a result, the Company has two business segments: Financial Products
and Investment Management Services. On October 1, 1998, the Company sold its
individual life insurance business to Lincoln National Corporation ("Lincoln")
and accordingly, it is now classified as Discontinued Operations (refer to Note
3).

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and are unaudited. The contribution of
IA Holdco to the Company was accounted for in a manner similar to that of a
pooling-of-interests and, accordingly, the Company's historical consolidated
financial statements have been restated to include the accounts and results of
operations of IA Holdco. Certain reclassifications have been made to 1998
financial information to conform to the 1999 presentation. These interim
statements necessarily rely heavily on estimates, including assumptions as to
annualized tax rates. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary
for a fair statement of results for the interim periods have been made. All
such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and related notes as presented in ALIAC's
1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain financial information that is normally
included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, but that is not required for interim reporting
purposes, has been condensed or omitted.

2) Contribution of IA Holdco from HOLDCO

On July 1, 1999, HOLDCO contributed IA Holdco to the Company. The primary
operating subsidiary of IA Holdco is Aeltus Investment Management, Inc
("Aeltus") which has two wholly-owned operating subsidiaries: Aeltus Capital,
Inc. ("ACI"), a broker dealer, and Aeltus Trust Company ("ATC"), a limited
purpose banking entity. Aeltus is a registered investment adviser under the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and provides investment advisory services to
institutional and retail clients on a fee-for-service basis. In addition,
Aeltus, through its ACI subsidiary, provides distribution services for certain
Aetna mutual funds and other Aetna products. Aeltus'ATC subsidiary provides
trustee, administrative, and other fiduciary services to retirement plans
requiring or otherwise utilizing a trustee or custodian.

3) Discontinued Operations -- Individual Life Insurance

On October 1, 1998, the Company sold its individual life insurance business to
Lincoln for $1 billion in cash. The transaction was generally in the form of an
indemnity reinsurance arrangement, under which Lincoln contractually assumed
from the Company certain policyholder liabilities and obligations, although the
Company remains directly obligated to policyholders. Insurance reserves ceded
as of December 31, 1998 were $2.9 billion. Deferred policy acquisition costs
related to the life policies of $907.9 million were written off against the
gain on the sale. Certain invested assets related to and supporting the life
policies were sold to consummate the life sale and the Company recorded a
reinsurance receivable from Lincoln. The transaction resulted in an after-tax
gain on the sale of approximately $117 million, of which $58 million was
deferred and is being recognized over approximately 15 years (as profits in the
book of business sold emerge). The remaining portion of the gain was recognized
immediately in net income and was largely attributed to the sale of the life
insurance business for access to the agency sales force and brokerage
distribution channel. The unamortized portion of the gain is presented in other
liabilities and deferred taxes on the consolidated balance sheets. Premiums
ceded and reinsurance recoveries made in 1999 totaled $373 million and $304
million, respectively.

4) New Accounting Standard

On January 1, 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Position ("SOP") 97-3,
Accounting by Insurance and Other Enterprises for Insurance-Related
Assessments, issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
("AICPA"). This statement provides guidance for determining when an insurance
or other enterprise should recognize a liability for guaranty-fund and other
insurance-related assessments and guidance for measuring the liability. The
adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's
financial position or results of operations as the Company had previously
accounted for guaranty-fund and other insurance-related assessments in a manner
consistent with this statement.

5) Future Accounting Standards

In October 1998, the AICPA issued SOP 98-7, Deposit Accounting: Accounting for
Insurance and Reinsurance Contracts That Do Not Transfer Insurance Risk, which
provides guidance on how to account for all insurance and reinsurance contracts
that do not transfer insurance risk, except for long-duration life and health
insurance contracts. This statement is effective for the Company's financial
statements beginning January 1, 2000, with early adoption permitted. The
Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material effect
on its financial position and results of operations.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Financial Accounting Standard ("FAS") No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities. This standard requires companies to record
all derivatives on the balance sheet as either assets or liabilities and
measure those instruments at fair value. The manner in which companies are to
record gains or losses resulting from changes in the values of those
derivatives depends on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for
hedge accounting. As amended by FAS No. 137, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities -- Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 133, this standard is effective for the Company's financial
statements beginning January 1, 2001, with early adoption permitted. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard and
the potential effect on its financial position and results of operations.

6) Additional Information -- Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income

Changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to changes in
unrealized (losses) gains on securities (excluding those related to
experience-rated contractholders) were as follows:

8) Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Commitments

Through the normal course of investment operations, the Company commits to
either purchase or sell securities or money market instruments at a specified
future date and at a specified price or yield. The inability of counterparties
to honor these commitments may result in either higher or lower replacement
cost. Also, there is likely to be a change in the value of the securities
underlying the commitments. As of September 30, 1999, the Company had
commitments to purchase investments of $307.8 million. The fair value at
September 30, 1999 of the investments to be purchased approximated $308.3
million.

Litigation

The Company is involved in numerous lawsuits arising, for the most part, in the
ordinary course of its business operations. While the ultimate outcome of
litigation against the Company cannot be determined at this time, after
consideration of the defenses available to the Company and any related reserves
established, and after consultation with counsel, it is not expected to result
in liability for amounts material to the financial condition of the Company,
although it may adversely affect results of operations in future periods.

9) Dividends

During 1999, the Company paid $235.8 million in dividends to HOLDCO, of which
$206.0 million was accrued for in 1998.

On October 12, 1999, a distribution was declared in an amount up to $20.2
million, payable by no later than December 31, 1999 to HOLDCO.

determination is made pursuant to Section 33-775 that the party seeking
indemnification has met the standard of conduct set forth in Section 33-771 or
(2) a court has determined that indemnification is appropriate pursuant to
Section 33-774. Under Section 33-775, the determination of and the authorization
for indemnification are made (a) by the disinterested directors, as defined in
Section 33-770(3); (b) by special counsel; (c) by the shareholders; or (d) in
the case of indemnification of an officer, agent or employee of the corporation,
by the general counsel of the corporation or such other officer(s) as the board
of directors may specify. Also, Section 33-772 provides that a corporation shall
indemnify an individual who was wholly successful on the merits or otherwise
against reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with a proceeding to
which he was a party because he was a director of the corporation. Pursuant to
Section 33-771(d), in the case of a proceeding by or in the right of the
corporation or with respect to conduct for which the director, officer, agent or
employee was adjudged liable on the basis that he received a financial benefit
to which he was not entitled, indemnification is limited to reasonable expenses
incurred in connection with the proceeding against the corporation to which the
individual was named a party.

The statute does specifically authorize a corporation to procure indemnification
insurance on behalf of an individual who was a director, officer, employer or
agent of the corporation. Consistent with the statute, Aetna Inc. has procured
insurance from Lloyd's of London and several major United States and
international excess insurers for its directors and officers and the directors
and officers of its subsidiaries, including the Depositor.

Item 32. Undertakings
- ---------------------

     Registrant hereby undertakes:

     (a) to file a post-effective amendment to this registration statement on
         Form N-4 as frequently as is necessary to ensure that the audited
         financial statements in the registration statement are never more than
         sixteen months old for as long as payments under the variable annuity
         contracts may be accepted;

     (b) to include as part of any application to purchase a contract offered by
         a prospectus which is part of this registration statement on Form N-4,
         a space that an applicant can check to request a Statement of
         Additional Information; and

     (c) to deliver any Statement of Additional Information and any financial
         statements required to be made available under this Form N-4 promptly
         upon written or oral request.
<PAGE>

     (d) The Company hereby represents that it is relying upon and will comply
         with the provisions of Paragraphs (1) through (4) of the SEC Staff's
         No-Action Letter dated November 28, 1988 with respect to language
         concerning withdrawal restrictions applicable to plans established
         pursuant to Section 403(b) of the Internal Revenue Code. See American
         Counsel of Life Insurance; SEC No-Action Letter, [1988 WL 235221, *13
         (S.E.C.)].

     (e) Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities
         Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
         persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
         otherwise, 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 of 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.

     (f) Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company represents that the fees and
         charges deducted under the contracts covered 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 the insurance company.

Re:  Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company and its Variable Annuity Account B
     Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement on Form N-4
     File Nos.:  333-87305 and 811-02512

Gentlemen:

The undersigned serves as counsel to Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company, a
Connecticut life insurance company (the "Company"). It is my understanding that
the Company, as depositor, has registered an indefinite amount of securities
(the "Securities") under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") as
provided in Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Investment
Company Act").

In connection with this opinion, I or those for whom I have supervisory
responsibility, have reviewed the N-4 Registration Statement, as amended to the
date hereof, and this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2. I have also examined
originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of
such documents, trust records and other instruments I have deemed necessary or
appropriate for the purpose of rendering this opinion. For purposes of such
examination, I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures on original
documents and the conformity to the original of all copies.

I am admitted to practice law in Connecticut, and do not purport to be an expert
on the laws of any other state. My opinion herein as to any other law is based
upon a limited inquiry thereof which I have deemed appropriate under the
circumstances.

Based upon the foregoing, and, assuming the Securities are sold in accordance
with the provisions of the prospectus, I am of the opinion that the Securities
being registered will be legally issued and will represent binding obligations
of the Company.

I consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement.
Sincerely,

/s/ Julie E. Rockmore
