real estate industry ("Real Estate Securities"). Current income is a
secondary consideration. Real Estate Securities include equity
securities, including common stocks and convertible securities, as well
as non-convertible preferred stocks and debt securities of real estate
industry companies. A "real estate industry company" is a company that
derives at least 50% of its assets (marked to market), gross income or
net profits from the ownership, construction, management or sale of
residential, commercial or industrial real estate. Under normal market
conditions, at least 65% of the Fund's total assets will be invested in
Real Estate Securities, primarily equity securities of real estate
investment trusts. The Portfolio may invest up to 25% of its total
assets in securities issued by foreign

issuers, some or all of which may also be Real Estate Securities.
Morgan Stanley Asset Management, Inc. serves as the Fund's investment
adviser.

NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
Modified Single Premium Deferred Variable Annuity Contracts
Issued by Nationwide Life Insurance Company through its Nationwide
Variable Account-9
The date of this prospectus is May 1, 2000.
Variable annuities are complex investment products with unique benefits and
advantages that may be particularly useful to many investors in meeting
long-term savings and retirement needs. There are, however, costs and charges
associated with some of these unique benefits - costs and charges that do not
exist or are not present with other investment products. With help from
financial consultants or advisers, investors are encouraged to compare and
contrast the costs and benefits of the variable annuity described in this
prospectus with those of other investment products, including other variable
annuity or variable life insurance products offered by Nationwide Life Insurance
Company and its affiliates. This process will aid in determining whether the
purchase of the contract described in this prospectus is consistent with an
individual's goals, risk tolerance, time horizon, marital status, tax situation,
and other personal characteristics and needs.
THIS PROSPECTUS CONTAINS BASIC INFORMATION YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THE CONTRACTS

(1) The expenses shown are estimated expenses.
(2) Expenses are based on the estimated expenses that the new Service
Shares class of each Portfolio expects to incur in its initial fiscal
year.
The expenses shown above are deducted by the underlying mutual fund before it
provides Nationwide with the daily net asset value. Nationwide then deducts
applicable variable account charges from the net asset value in calculating the
unit value of the corresponding sub-account. The management fees and other
expenses are more fully described in the prospectus for each underlying mutual
fund. Information relating to the underlying mutual funds was provided by the
underlying mutual funds and not independently verified by Nationwide.
Some underlying mutual funds are subject to fee waivers and expense
reimbursements. The following chart shows what the expenses would have been for
such funds without fee waivers and expense reimbursements:

EXAMPLE
The following chart shows the expenses (in dollars) that would be incurred under
this contract assuming a $1,000 investment, 5% annual return, and no change in
underlying mutual fund expenses. These dollar figures are illustrative only and
should not be considered a representation of past or future expenses. Actual
expenses may be greater or less than those shown below.
The example reflects expenses of both the variable account and the underlying
mutual funds. The example reflects the 7 year CDSC schedule and an assumed
variable account charge of 2.70% which is the maximum charge for the maximum
number of rider options.
For those contracts that do not elect the maximum number of rider options, the
expenses are reduced. Deductions for premium taxes are not reflected but may
apply.

SYNOPSIS OF THE CONTRACTS
The contracts described in this prospectus are modified single purchase payment
contracts. The contracts may be issued as either individual or group contracts.

throughout this prospectus to "contract(s)" will also mean "certificate(s)."
The contracts can be categorized as:
- Investment-only;
- Non-Qualified;
- Individual Retirement Annuities with contributions rolled over or
transferred from certain tax-qualified plans*;
- Roth IRAs;
- Tax Sheltered Annuities with contributions rolled over or transferred
from other Tax Sheltered Annuity plans*;
- Charitable Remainder Trusts;
- SEP IRAs; and

*Contributions are not required to be rolled over or transferred if the contract
owner elects the Reduced Purchase Payment Option.
For more detailed information with regard to the differences in contract types,
please see "Types of Contracts" later in this prospectus.

</TABLE>
If the contract owner elects the Reduced Purchase Payment Option, minimum
initial and subsequent purchase payments will be reduced accordingly.
If the contract owner elects the Extra Value Option, amounts credited to the
contract in excess of total purchase payments may not be used to meet the
minimum initial and subsequent purchase payment requirements.
Guaranteed Term Options
Guaranteed Term Options are separate investment options under the contract. The
minimum amount that may be allocated to a Guaranteed Term Option is $1,000.
CHARGES AND EXPENSES
Nationwide deducts a Mortality and Expense Risk Charge equal to an annual rate
of 0.95% of the daily net assets of the variable account. Nationwide assesses
this charge in return for bearing certain mortality and expense risks, and for
administrative expenses.
Nationwide does not deduct a sales charge from purchase payments upon deposit
into the contract. However, Nationwide may deduct a CDSC if any amount is
withdrawn from the contract. This CDSC reimburses Nationwide for sales expenses.
The amount of the CDSC will not exceed 7% of purchase payments surrendered.
There are several CDSC options that are available to contract owners, each with
different characteristics and costs. The charge associated with each option is
charged as a percentage of the daily net assets of the variable account. They
are as follows:
<TABLE>

<PAGE> 35
If the contract owner elects the Reduced Purchase Payment Option, Nationwide
will reduce the minimum initial purchase payment to $1,000 and subsequent
purchase payments to $25. In return for the reduction, Nationwide will deduct an
additional charge of 0.25% of the daily net assets of the variable account. This
option is not available for contracts issued as Investment-only contracts.
Two optional death benefits are available under the contract. Nationwide will
deduct 0.05% if the One-Year Step Up Death Benefit is elected, or 0.10% if the
5% Enhanced Death Benefit is elected.
A Guaranteed Minimum Income Benefit option is available under the contract. If
the contract owner elects the Guaranteed Minimum Income Benefit option,
Nationwide will deduct an additional charge of an annualized rate of 0.45% of
the daily net assets of the variable account (see "Guaranteed Minimum Income
Benefit").
An Extra Value Option is available under the contract. The Extra Value Option is
only available at the time of application. If the contract owner elects the
Extra Value Option on the application, Nationwide will apply a credit of 3% of
the purchase payment(s) made during the first 12 months the contract is in
force. In exchange, Nationwide will deduct an additional charge at an annualized
rate of 0.45% of the daily net assets of the variable account. Nationwide will
discontinue deducting this charge seven years from the date the contract was
issued. Once the Extra Value Option is elected, it may not be revoked (see
"Extra Value Option").
Upon annuitization of the contract, any amounts assessed for any rider options
elected will be waived and only those charges applicable to the base contract
will be assessed.
ANNUITY PAYMENTS
Annuity payments begin on the annuitization date. The payments will be based on
the annuity payment option chosen at the time of application (see "Annuity
Payment Options").
TAXATION
How a contract is taxed depends on the type of contract issued and the purpose
for which the contract is purchased. Nationwide will charge against the contract
any premium taxes levied by any governmental authority (see "Federal Tax
Considerations" and "Premium Taxes").
TEN DAY FREE LOOK
Contract owners may return the contract for any reason within ten days of
receipt and Nationwide will refund the contract value or other amounts required
by law (see "Right to Revoke").
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Financial statements for the variable account and Nationwide are located in the
Statement of Additional Information. A current Statement of Additional
Information may be obtained, without charge, by contacting Nationwide's home
office at the telephone number listed on page 3 of this prospectus.
CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The value of an accumulation unit is determined on the basis of changes in the
per share value of the underlying mutual funds and the assessment of a variable
account charge which may vary from contract to contract (for more information on
the calculation of accumulation unit values, see "Determining Variable Account
Value - Valuing an Accumulation Unit"). Please refer to Appendix B for
information regarding each class of accumulation units.
NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
Nationwide is a stock life insurance company organized under Ohio law in March,
1929 with its home office at One Nationwide Plaza, Columbus, Ohio 43215.
Nationwide is a provider of life insurance, annuities and retirement products.
It is admitted to do business in all states, the District of Columbia and Puerto
Rico.
19
<PAGE> 36
NATIONWIDE INVESTMENT SERVICES CORPORATION
The contracts are distributed by the general distributor, Nationwide Investment
Services Corporation ("NISC"), Two Nationwide Plaza, Columbus, Ohio 43215. (For
contracts issued in the State of Michigan, all references to NISC shall mean
Nationwide Investment Svcs. Corporation.) NISC is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Nationwide.
TYPES OF CONTRACTS
The contracts described in this prospectus are classified according to the tax
treatment they are subject to under the Internal Revenue Code. The following is
a general description of the various types of contracts. Eligibility
requirements, tax benefits (if any), limitations, and other features of the
contracts will differ depending on the type of contract.
NON-QUALIFIED ANNUITY CONTRACTS
A Non-Qualified Annuity Contract is a contract that does not qualify for certain
tax benefits under the Internal Revenue Code, and which is not an IRA, a Roth
IRA, a SEP IRA, a Simple IRA, or a Tax Sheltered Annuity.
Upon the death of the owner of a Non-Qualified Annuity Contract, mandatory
distribution requirements are imposed to ensure distribution of the entire
balance in the contract within a required statutory period.
Non-Qualified Annuity contracts that are owned by natural persons allow for the
deferral of taxation on the income earned in the contract until it is
distributed or deemed to be distributed.
INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES (IRAS)
Individual Retirement Annuities are contracts that are issued by insurance
companies and satisfy the following requirements:
- the contract is not transferable by the owner;
- the premiums are not fixed;
- the annual premium cannot exceed $2,000 (although rollovers of greater
amounts from qualified plans, tax-sheltered annuities and other IRAs
can be received);
- certain minimum distribution requirements must be satisfied after the
owner attains the age of 70 1/2;
- the entire interest of the owner in the contract is nonforfeitable;
and
- after the death of the owner, additional distribution requirements may
be imposed to ensure distribution of the entire balance in the
contract within the statutory period of time.
Depending on the circumstance of the owner, all or a portion of the
contributions made to the account may be deducted for federal income tax
purposes.
Failure to make the mandatory distributions can result in an additional penalty
tax of 50% of the excess of the amount required to be distributed over the
amount that was actually distributed.
IRAs may receive rollover contributions from other Individual Retirement
Accounts and Individual Retirement Annuities, from Tax Sheltered Annuities, and
from qualified retirement plans, including 401(k) plans.
For further details regarding IRAs, please refer to the disclosure statement
provided when the IRA was established.
SIMPLIFIED EMPLOYEE PENSION IRAS (SEP IRAS)
A SEP IRA is a written plan established by an employer for the benefit of
employees which permits the employer to make contributions to an IRA established
for the benefit of each employee.
An employee may make deductible contributions to a SEP IRA in the same way, and
with the same restrictions and limitations, as for an IRA. In addition, the
employer may make contributions to the SEP IRA, subject to dollar and percentage
limitations imposed by
20
<PAGE> 37
both the Internal Revenue Code and the written plan.
A SEP IRA plan established by an employer must satisfy certain requirements:
- minimum participation rules;
- top-heavy contribution rules;
- nondiscriminatory allocation rules; and
- requirements regarding a
written allocation formula.
In addition, the plan cannot restrict withdrawals of non-elective contributions,
and must restrict withdrawals of elective contributions before March 15th of the
following year.
SIMPLE IRAS
A Simple IRA is an individual retirement annuity which is funded exclusively by
a qualified salary reduction arrangement and satisfies the following:
- vesting requirements,
- participation requirements; and
- administrative requirements.
The funds contributed to a Simple IRA cannot be commingled with funds in IRAs or
SEP IRAs.
A Simple IRA cannot receive rollover distributions except from another Simple
IRA.
ROTH IRAS
Roth IRA contracts are contracts that are issued by insurance companies and
satisfy the following requirements:
- the contract is not transferable by the owner;
- the premiums are not fixed;
- the annual premium cannot exceed $2,000 (although rollovers of greater
amounts from other Roth IRAs and IRAs can be received);
- the entire interest of the owner in the contract is nonforfeitable;
and
- after the death of the owner, certain distribution requirements may be
imposed to ensure distribution of the entire balance in the contract
within the statutory period of time.
A Roth IRA can receive a rollover from an IRA; however, the amount rolled over
from the IRA to the Roth IRA is required to be included in the owner's federal
gross income at the time of the rollover, and will be subject to federal income
tax.
There are income limitations on eligibility to participate in a Roth IRA and
additional income limitations for eligibility to roll over amounts from an IRA
to a Roth IRA. For further details regarding Roth IRAs, please refer to the
disclosure statement provided when the Roth IRA was established.
TAX SHELTERED ANNUITIES
Certain tax-exempt organizations (described in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal
Revenue Code) and public school systems may establish a plan under which annuity
contracts can be purchased for their employees. These annuity contracts are
often referred to as Tax Sheltered Annuities.
Purchase payments made to Tax Sheltered Annuities are excludible from the income
of the employee, up to statutory maximum amounts. These amounts should be set
forth in the plan adopted by the employer.
The owner's interest in the contract is nonforfeitable (except for failure to
pay premiums) and cannot be transferred. Certain minimum distribution
requirements must be satisfied after the owner attains the age of 70 1/2, and
after the death of the owner. Additional distribution requirements may be
imposed to ensure distribution of the entire balance in the contract within the
required period of time.
QUALIFIED PLANS
Contracts that are owned by Qualified Plans are not intended to confer tax
benefits on the beneficiaries of the plan; they are used as investment vehicles
for the plan. The income tax consequences to the beneficiary of a Qualified Plan
are controlled by the operation of the plan, not by operation of the assets in
which the plan invests.
21
<PAGE> 38
Beneficiaries of Qualified Plans should contact their employer and/or trustee of
the plan to obtain and review the plan, trust, summary plan description and
other documents for the tax and other consequences of being a participant in a
qualified plan.
INVESTING IN THE CONTRACT
THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT AND UNDERLYING MUTUAL FUNDS
Nationwide Variable Account-9 is a variable account that invests in the
underlying mutual funds listed in Appendix A. Nationwide established the
variable account on May 22, 1997, pursuant to Ohio law. Although the variable
account is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust pursuant to the
Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act"), the SEC does not supervise the
management of Nationwide or the variable account.
Income, gains, and losses credited to, or charged against, the variable account
reflect the variable account's own investment experience and not the investment
experience of Nationwide's other assets. The variable account's assets are held
separately from Nationwide's assets and are not chargeable with liabilities
incurred in any other business of Nationwide. Nationwide is obligated to pay all
amounts promised to contract owners under the contracts.
The variable account is divided into sub-accounts, each corresponding to a
single underlying mutual fund. Nationwide uses the assets of each sub-account to
buy shares of the underlying mutual funds based on contract owner instructions.
There are two sub-accounts for each underlying mutual fund. One sub-account
contains shares attributable to accumulation units under Non-Qualified
Contracts. The other contains shares attributable to accumulation units under
Investment-only Contracts, Individual Retirement Annuities, Simple IRAs, SEP
IRAs, Roth IRAs, and Tax Sheltered Annuities.
Each underlying mutual fund's prospectus contains more detailed information
about that fund. Prospectuses for the underlying mutual funds should be read in
conjunction with this prospectus.
Underlying mutual funds in the variable account are NOT publicly traded mutual
funds. They are only available as investment options in variable life insurance
policies or variable annuity contracts issued by life insurance companies, or in
some cases, through participation in certain qualified pension or retirement
plans.
The investment advisers of the underlying mutual funds may manage publicly
traded mutual funds with similar names and investment objectives. However, the
underlying mutual funds are NOT directly related to any publicly traded mutual
fund. Contract owners should not compare the performance of a publicly traded
fund with the performance of underlying mutual funds participating in the
variable account. The performance of the underlying mutual funds could differ
substantially from that of any publicly traded funds.
Voting Rights
Contract owners who have allocated assets to the underlying mutual funds are
entitled to certain voting rights. Nationwide will vote contract owner shares at
special shareholder meetings based on contract owner instructions. However, if
the law changes and Nationwide is allowed to vote in its own right, it may elect
to do so.
Contract owners with voting interests in an underlying mutual fund will be
notified of issues requiring the shareholders' vote as soon as possible before
the shareholder meeting. Notification will contain proxy materials and a form
with which to give Nationwide voting instructions. Nationwide will vote shares
for which no instructions are received in the same proportion as those that are
received.
The number of shares which a contract owner may vote is determined by dividing
the cash value of the amount they have allocated to an underlying mutual fund by
the net asset value of that underlying mutual fund. Nationwide will
22
<PAGE> 39
designate a date for this determination not more than 90 days before the
shareholder meeting.
Material Conflicts
The underlying mutual funds may be offered through separate accounts of other
insurance companies, as well as through other separate accounts of Nationwide.
Nationwide does not anticipate any disadvantages to this. However, it is
possible that a conflict may arise between the interests of the variable account
and one or more of the other separate accounts in which these underlying mutual
funds participate.
Material conflicts may occur due to a change in law affecting the operations of
variable life insurance policies and variable annuity contracts, or differences
in the voting instructions of the contract owners and those of other companies.
If a material conflict occurs, Nationwide will take whatever steps are necessary
to protect contract owners and variable annuity payees, including withdrawal of
the variable account from participation in the underlying mutual fund(s)
involved in the conflict.
Substitution of Securities
Nationwide may substitute, eliminate, or combine shares of another underlying
mutual fund for shares already purchased or to be purchased in the future if
either of the following occurs:
1) shares of a current underlying mutual fund are no longer available for
investment; or
2) further investment in an underlying mutual fund is inappropriate.
No substitution, elimination, or combination of shares may take place without
the prior approval of the SEC.
GUARANTEED TERM OPTIONS
Guaranteed Term Options are separate investment options under the contract. A
Guaranteed Term Option prospectus should be read along with this prospectus. The
minimum amount that may be allocated to a Guaranteed Term Option is $1,000.
Allocations to the Guaranteed Term Options are not subject to variable account
charges.
Guaranteed Term Options provide a guaranteed rate of interest over four
different maturity durations: three (3), five (5), seven (7) or ten (10) years.
Note: The guaranteed term may last for up to 3 months beyond the 3, 5, 7, or 10
year period since every guaranteed term will end on the final day of a calendar
quarter.
For the duration selected, Nationwide will declare a guaranteed interest rate.
For contract owners that elect the Extra Value Option, allocations made to the
Guaranteed Term Options for the first seven contract years will be credited a
guaranteed interest rate of 0.45% less than the guaranteed interest rate that
applies to the Guaranteed Term Options if the Extra Value Option is not elected.
That rate will be credited to amounts allocated to the Guaranteed Term Option
UNLESS a distribution is taken before the maturity date. If a distribution
occurs before the maturity date, the amount distributed will be subject to a
market value adjustment. A market value adjustment can increase or decrease the
amount distributed depending on current interest rate fluctuations. No market
value adjustment will be applied if Guaranteed Term Option allocations are held
to maturity.
Because a market value adjustment can affect the value of a distribution, its
effects should be carefully considered before surrendering or transferring from
Guaranteed Term Options. When actual interest rates are higher than the
guaranteed rate, a market value adjustment would reduce the value of the amount
distributed. When actual interest rates are lower than the guaranteed rate, the
value of the amount distributed would increase.
Guaranteed Term Options are available only during the accumulation phase of a
contract. They are not available after the annuitization date. In addition,
Guaranteed Term Options are not available for use with asset rebalancing, Dollar
Cost Averaging, or systematic withdrawals.
23
<PAGE> 40
Guaranteed Term Options may not be available in every state.
THE FIXED ACCOUNT
The fixed account is an investment option that is funded by assets of
Nationwide's general account. The general account contains all of Nationwide's
assets other than those in other Nationwide separate accounts. It is used to
support Nationwide's annuity and insurance obligations and may contain
compensation for mortality and expense risks. The general account is not subject
to the same laws as the variable account and the SEC has not reviewed material
in this prospectus relating to the fixed account. However, information relating
to the fixed account is subject to federal securities laws relating to accuracy
and completeness of prospectus disclosure.
Purchase payments will be allocated to the fixed account by election of the
contract owner.
The investment income earned by the fixed account will be allocated to the
contracts at varying guaranteed interest rate(s) depending on the following
categories of fixed account allocations:
- New Money Rate - The rate credited on the fixed account allocation
when the contract is purchased or when subsequent purchase payments
are made. Subsequent purchase payments may receive different New Money
Rates than the rate when the contract was issued, since the New Money
Rate is subject to change based on market conditions.
- Variable Account to Fixed Rate - Allocations transferred from any of
the underlying investment options in the variable account to the fixed
account may receive a different rate. The rate may be lower than the
New Money Rate. There may be limits on the amount and frequency of
movements from the variable account to the fixed account.
- Renewal Rate - The rate available for maturing fixed account
allocations which are entering a new guarantee period. The contract
owner will be notified of this rate in a letter issued with the
quarterly statements when any of the money in the contract owner's
fixed account matures. At that time, the contract owner will have an
opportunity to leave the money in the fixed account and receive the
Renewal Rate or the contract owner can move the money to any of the
other underlying mutual fund options.
- Dollar Cost Averaging Rate - From time to time, Nationwide may offer a
more favorable rate for an initial purchase payment into a new
contract when used in conjunction with a Dollar Cost Averaging
program.
For contract owners that elect the Extra Value Option, payments or transfers
made to the fixed account will, for the first seven contract years, be credited
a guaranteed interest rate of 0.45% less than the crediting rate that applies to
the fixed account if the Extra Value Option is not elected. Nationwide
guarantees, however, that the rate will not be less than 3.0% for any given
year.
All of these rates are subject to change on a daily basis; however, once applied
to the fixed account, the interest rates are guaranteed until the end of the
calendar quarter during which the12 month anniversary of the fixed account
allocation occurs.
Credited interest rates are annualized rates - the effective yield of interest
over a one year period. Interest is credited to each contract on a daily basis.
As a result, the credited interest rate is compounded daily to achieve the
stated effective yield.
The guaranteed rate for any purchase payment will be effective for not less than
twelve months. Nationwide guarantees that the rate will not be less than 3.0%
per year.
Any interest in excess of 3.0% will be credited to fixed account allocations at
Nationwide's sole discretion. The contract owner assumes the risk that interest
credited to fixed account allocations may not exceed the minimum guarantee of
3.0% for any given year.
24
<PAGE> 41
Nationwide guarantees that the fixed account contract value will not be less
than the amount of the purchase payments allocated to the fixed account, plus
interest credited as described above, less any surrenders and any applicable
charges including CDSC.
STANDARD CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE
Nationwide deducts a Mortality and Expense Risk Charge from the variable
account. This amount is computed on a daily basis and is equal to an annual rate
of 0.95% of the daily net assets of the variable account.
The Mortality Risk Charge compensates Nationwide for guaranteeing the annuity
purchase rates of the contracts. This guarantee ensures that the annuity
purchase rates will not change regardless of the death rates of annuity payees
or the general population. The Mortality Risk Charge also compensates Nationwide
for risks assumed in connection with the standard death benefit, but only
partially compensates Nationwide in connection with the two optional death
benefits, for which there are separate charges.
The Expense Risk Charge compensates Nationwide for guaranteeing that charges
will not increase regardless of actual expenses.
If the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge is insufficient to cover actual
expenses, the loss is borne by Nationwide.
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE
No sales charge deduction is made from the purchase payments when amounts are
deposited into the contracts. However, if any part of the contract is
surrendered, Nationwide will deduct a CDSC. The CDSC will not exceed 7% of
purchase payments surrendered.
The CDSC is calculated by multiplying the applicable CDSC percentage (noted
below) by the amount of purchase payments surrendered. For purposes of
calculating the CDSC, surrenders are considered to come first from the oldest
purchase payment made to the contract, then the next oldest purchase payment,
and so forth. Earnings are not subject to the CDSC, but may not be distributed
prior to the distribution of all purchase payments. (For tax purposes, a
surrender is usually treated as a withdrawal of earnings first.)
The CDSC applies as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Number of Years from Date CDSC
of Purchase Payment Percentage
<S> <C>
0 7%
1 7%
2 6%
3 5%
4 4%
5 3%
6 2%
7 0%
</TABLE>
The CDSC is used to cover sales expenses, including commissions (maximum of 6%
of purchase payments), production of sales material, and other promotional
expenses. If expenses are greater than the CDSC, the shortfall will be made up
from Nationwide's general assets, which may indirectly include portions of the
variable account charges, since Nationwide may generate a profit from these
charges.
All or a portion of any withdrawal may be subject to federal income taxes.
Contract owners taking withdrawals before age 59 1/2 may be subject to a 10%
penalty tax.
Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
Each contract year, the contract owner may withdraw without a CDSC the greater
of:
(a) 10% of all purchase payments; or
(b) any amount withdrawn to meet minimum distribution requirements under
the Internal Revenue Code.
This CDSC-free privilege is non-cumulative. Free amounts not taken during any
given contract year cannot be taken as free amounts in a subsequent contract
year.
In addition, no CDSC will be deducted:
(1) upon the annuitization of contracts which have been in force for at
least two years;
25
<PAGE> 42
(2) upon payment of a death benefit; or
(3) from any values which have been held under a contract for at least 7 years.
No CDSC applies to transfers among sub-accounts or between or among the
Guaranteed Term Options, the fixed account, or the variable account. Nationwide
may waive the CDSC if a contract described in this prospectus is exchanged for
another Nationwide contract (or a contract of any of its affiliated insurance
companies). A CDSC may apply to the contract received in the exchange.
A contract held by a Charitable Remainder Trust may withdraw CDSC-free the
greater of (a) or (b), where:
(a) is the amount which would otherwise be available for withdrawal
without a CDSC; and
(b) is the difference between the total purchase payments made to the
contract as of the date of the withdrawal (reduced by previous
withdrawals) and the contract value at the close of the day prior to
the date of the withdrawal.
The CDSC will not be eliminated if to do so would be unfairly discriminatory or
prohibited by state law.
PREMIUM TAXES
Nationwide will charge against the contract value any premium taxes levied by a
state or other government entity. Premium tax rates currently range from 0% to
5.0%. This range is subject to change. The method used to assess premium tax
will be determined by Nationwide at its sole discretion in compliance with state
law.
If applicable, Nationwide will deduct premium taxes from the contract either at:
(1) the time the contract is surrendered;
(2) annuitization; or
(3) such earlier date as Nationwide becomes subject to premium taxes.
Premium taxes may be deducted from death benefit proceeds.
OPTIONAL CONTRACT BENEFITS, CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
REDUCED PURCHASE PAYMENT OPTION
If the contract owner chooses the Reduced Purchase Payment Option, Nationwide
will deduct an additional charge equal to an annualized rate of 0.25% of the
daily net assets of the variable account. In return, the minimum initial
purchase payment for that contract will be $1,000 and minimum subsequent
purchase payment will be $25. This option is not available for Investment-only
Contracts.
The contract owner may elect to terminate this option if, throughout a period of
at least two years and continuing until such election, the total of all purchase
payments, less surrenders and withdrawals, is maintained at $25,000 or more.
This election must be submitted in writing on a form provided by Nationwide.
Termination of the rider will occur as of the date on the election form, and the
charge for this rider will no longer be assessed. Subsequent purchase payments,
if any, will be subject to the terms of the contract and must be at least
$1,000.
CDSC OPTIONS AND CHARGES
Five Year CDSC Option
For an additional charge at an annualized rate of 0.15% of the daily net assets
of the variable account, the contract owner may choose the Five Year CDSC
Option.
Under this option, CDSC will not exceed 7% of purchase payments surrendered.
The Five Year CDSC Option applies as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

<S> <C>
0 7%
1 7%
2 6%
3 4%

5 0%
</TABLE>
For contracts issued in the State of New York, this option is available only for
contracts issued
26
<PAGE> 43
as Roth IRAs and is not available when the Extra Value Option is elected.
Additional Withdrawal without Charge and Disability Waiver
Each contract has a standard 10% CDSC-free withdrawal privilege each year. For
an additional charge at an annualized rate of 0.10% of the daily net assets of
the variable account, the contract owner can withdraw an additional 5% of total
purchase payments each year without incurring a CDSC. This would allow the
contract owner to withdraw a total of 15% of the total of all purchase payments
each year free of CDSC. Like the standard 10% CDSC-free privilege, this
additional withdrawal benefit is non-cumulative.
This option also contains a disability waiver. Nationwide will waive CDSC if a
contract owner (or annuitant if the contract is owned by a non-natural owner) is
disabled after the contract is issued but before reaching age 65. If this waiver
becomes effective due to disability, no additional purchase payments may be made
to the contract.
Additional CDSC Waiver Options for Tax Sheltered Annuities
10 Year and Disability Waiver
For an additional charge at an annualized rate of 0.05% of the daily net
assets of the variable account, the contract owner of a Tax Sheltered
Annuity can purchase the 10 Year and Disability Waiver. Under this option,
Nationwide will waive CDSC if two conditions are met:
(1) the contract owner has been the owner of the contract for 10 years;
and
(2) the contract owner has made regular payroll deferrals during the
entire contract year for at least 5 of those 10 years.
This option also contains a disability waiver. Nationwide will waive CDSC
if the contract owner is disabled after the contract is issued but before
reaching age 65. If this waiver becomes effective due to disability, no
additional purchase payments may be made to the contract.
Hardship Waiver
For an additional charge at an annualized rate of 0.15% of the daily net
assets of the variable account, the contract owner of a Tax Sheltered
Annuity can purchase the Hardship Waiver. Under this option, Nationwide
will waive CDSC if the contract owner experiences a hardship (as defined
for purposes of Internal Revenue Code Section (401(k)). The contract owner
may be required to provide proof of hardship.
If this waiver becomes effective, no additional purchase payments may be
made to the contract.
DEATH BENEFIT OPTIONS
If the contract owner chooses an optional death benefit, Nationwide will deduct
a charge equal to an annualized rate of either 0.05% (for the One-Year Step Up
Death Benefit) or 0.10% (for the 5% Enhanced Death Benefit) of the daily net
assets of the variable account, depending upon which option was chosen.
Nationwide may lower either of these charges at any time without notifying
contract owners. Further information about these benefits can be found in the
"Death Benefit Payment" provision. All of the following death benefit options
may not be available in every state.
One-Year Step Up Death Benefit
If the annuitant dies before the annuitization date, the death benefit will be
the greatest of:
(1) the contract value;
(2) the total of all purchase payments, less an adjustment for amounts
surrendered; or
(3) the highest contract value on any contract anniversary before the
annuitant's 86th birthday, less an adjustment for amounts subsequently
surrendered, plus purchase payments received after that contract
anniversary.
The adjustment for amounts surrendered will reduce items (2) and (3) above in
the same
27
<PAGE> 44
proportion that the contract value was reduced on the date(s) of the partial
surrender(s).
5% Enhanced Death Benefit
If the annuitant dies before the annuitization date, the death benefit will be
the greater of:
(1) the contract value; or
(2) the total of all purchase payments, less any amounts surrendered,
accumulated at 5% simple interest from the date of each purchase payment or
surrender to the most recent contract anniversary prior to the annuitant's
86th birthday, less an adjustment for amounts subsequently surrendered,
plus purchase payments received since that contract anniversary.
Long Term Care Facility Provisions
If the contract owner chooses an optional death benefit, no CDSC will be charged
if:
- The third contract anniversary has passed; and
- The contract owner has been confined to a long-term care facility or
hospital for a continuous 90-day period that began after the contract
issue date.
Additionally, if the contract owner chooses an optional death benefit, no CDSC
will be charged if:
- The contract owner has been diagnosed by a physician to have a
terminal illness; and
- Nationwide receives and records a letter from that physician
indicating such diagnosis.
Written notice and proof of terminal illness or confinement for 90 days in a
hospital or long term care facility must be received in a form satisfactory to
Nationwide and recorded at Nationwide's home offer prior to waiver of the CDSC.
For those contracts that have a non-natural person as contract owner as an agent
for a natural person, the annuitant may exercise the rights of the contract
owner for the purposes described in this provision. If the non-natural contract
owner does NOT own the contract as an agent for a natural person (e.g., the
contract owner is a corporation or a trust for the benefit of an entity), the
annuitant may NOT exercise the rights described in this provision.
GUARANTEED MINIMUM INCOME BENEFIT OPTION
For an additional charge at an annualized rate of 0.45% of the daily net assets
of the variable account, the contract owner can purchase a Guaranteed Minimum
Income Benefit option at the time of application. The Guaranteed Minimum Income
Benefit option provides for a minimum guaranteed value that may replace the
contract value as the amount to be annuitized under certain circumstances. A
Guaranteed Minimum Income Benefit may afford protection against unfavorable
investment performance.
EXTRA VALUE OPTION
THE EXTRA VALUE OPTION MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ALL STATES. APPLICANTS SHOULD BE
AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING PRIOR TO ELECTING THE EXTRA VALUE OPTION:
1. ELECTING THE EXTRA VALUE OPTION WILL BE BENEFICIAL FOR CONTRACT OWNERS ONLY
IF THE INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE OF THE UNDERLYING MUTUAL FUNDS, AND RATE OF
RETURN IN THE FIXED ACCOUNT AND GUARANTEED TERM OPTIONS, IS GREAT ENOUGH TO
COMPENSATE FOR THE REDUCTION IN CONTRACT VALUE DUE TO THE 0.45% CHARGE;
2. NATIONWIDE MAY MAKE A PROFIT FROM THE CHARGE ASSESSED BY THE EXTRA VALUE
OPTION;
3. BECAUSE THE 0.45% CHARGE ASSOCIATED WITH THE EXTRA VALUE OPTION WILL BE
ASSESSED AGAINST THE ENTIRE VARIABLE ACCOUNT VALUE FOR THE FIRST SEVEN (7)
CONTRACT YEARS, CONTRACT OWNERS WHO ANTICIPATE MAKING ADDITIONAL PURCHASE
PAYMENTS AFTER THE FIRST CONTACT YEAR SHOULD CAREFULLY EXAMINE THE EXTRA
VALUE OPTION AND CONSULT THEIR FINANCIAL ADVISER REGARDING ITS
DESIRABILITY;
4. ONCE THE EXTRA VALUE OPTION IS ELECTED, IT MAY NOT BE REVOKED; AND
5. NATIONWIDE MAY RECAPTURE ALL OR PART OF THE AMOUNT CREDITED IN THE EVENT OF
EARLY SURRENDERS, INCLUDING REVOCATION OF THE CONTRACT DURING THE
CONTRACTUAL FREE-LOOK PERIOD.
28
<PAGE> 45
For an additional charge at an annualized rate of 0.45% of the daily net assets
of the variable account, the contract owner can purchase an Extra Value Option
at the time of application. Nationwide may reduce this charge.
In exchange, Nationwide will apply a credit of 3% of the purchase payment(s)
made during the first 12 months the contract is in force. This credit is funded
from Nationwide's general account. The amount credited will be allocated among
the sub-accounts, the fixed account, and/or the Guaranteed Term Options in the
same proportion that the purchase payment is allocated to the contract.
The option of electing the Extra Value Option allows prospective contract owners
to choose between two different variable account charge structures for the first
seven years of the contract.
If the credit is elected and no additional contract options are elected, the
total variable account charges under the contract will be an annualized rate of
1.40% of the daily net assets of the variable account for the first seven years
of the contract. If the Extra Value Option is not elected, total variable
account charges will be an annualized rate of 0.95% (assuming no other contract
options are elected) of the daily net assets of the variable account for the
first seven years of the contract and thereafter.
Under these circumstances, the decision to elect or decline the Extra Value
Option will depend primarily on whether the prospective contract owner believes
it is more advantageous to have:
(a) a 1.40% variable account charge for the first seven years of the contract,
plus the Extra Value Option credit; or
(b) a 0.95% variable account charge for the first seven years of the contract,
without the Extra Value Option credit.
The following table demonstrates hypothetical rates of return for contracts with
the Extra Value Option and no other optional benefits (total variable account
asset charges of 1.40%) and contracts with no additional contract options
whatsoever (total variable account asset charges of 0.95%). The figures are
based upon:
(a) a $100,000 initial purchase payment with no additional purchase
payments;
(b) the deduction of variable account charges of an annualized rate of
0.95% (base contract) and 1.40% (contract with only the Extra Value
Option) of the daily net asset value; and
(c) an assumed annual rate of return before charges of 7.75% for all years
for a period of 10 years.
7.75% RATE OF RETURN
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Contract Year Base Contract Contract With Extra
(0.95% total asset Value Option (1.40%
charges) total asset charges)
<S> <C> <C>
1 $106,800 $109,541
2 $114,062 $116,496
3 $121,819 $123,894
4 $130,102 $131,761

9 $180,776 $180,776
10 $193,069 $193,069
</TABLE>
Generally, the higher the rate of return, the more advantageous the Extra Value
Option becomes and vice versa. The table above assumes no additional purchase
payments are made to the contract after the first contract anniversary. If
subsequent purchase payments are made to the contract after the first contract
anniversary (assuming a rate of return of 7.75%) the number of contract years
needed to "break-even" increases in direct correlation with the amount of
subsequent purchase payments made to the contract after the first contract
anniversary.
29
<PAGE> 46
Amounts credited to the contract in connection with the Extra Value Option may
be recaptured if:
(a) the contract owner elects to surrender the contract pursuant to the
contractual free-look provisions; or
(b) withdrawals that are subject to a CDSC are taken before the end of the
seventh contract year.
If the contract is surrendered pursuant to the contractual free-look, Nationwide
may recapture the full credited amount if the contract value, at the time of the
request to surrender, is equal to or greater than the purchase payments made to
the contract. In such a situation, the contract owner is entitled to keep any
earnings. If, however, the contract value is less than the purchase payments
made to the contract, Nationwide will bear the loss.
After the free look period and before the seventh contract anniversary, any
amounts withdrawn from the contract that are subject to a CDSC subjects a part
of the amount credited to recapture. For example, if a contract owner withdraws
13% of purchase payments made within the first contract year, 3% of the amount
credited will be recaptured by Nationwide, since the contract owner may withdraw
only 10% of purchase payments without a CDSC. This means that the percentage of
the amount credited to be recaptured will be the determined by the percentage of
total purchase payments reflected in the amount surrendered that is subject to
CDSC. The amount recaptured will be taken from the sub-accounts, the fixed
account and/or the Guaranteed Term Options in the same proportion as allocated
by the contract owner at the time of the withdrawal.
For contracts issued in the State of New York, after the free look period and
before the seventh contract anniversary, amounts credited under the contract may
be recaptured whenever withdrawals are made that are subject to a CDSC in
accordance with the following:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
(Extra Value Amount)
Percentage of First Year
Contract Years Purchase Payments
<S> <C>
1 and 2 3%
3,4 and 5 2%
6 and 7 1%
After year 7 0%
</TABLE>
The percentage of the amount credited to be recaptured will be determined by the
percentage of total purchase payments reflected in the amount surrendered that
is subject to CDSC. The amount recaptured will be taken from the sub-accounts
and the fixed account in the same proportion as allocated by the contract owner
at the same time of the withdrawal.
NO AMOUNT CREDITED WILL BE SUBJECT TO RECAPTURE IF THE WITHDRAWAL IS NOT SUBJECT
TO A CDSC OR IF A DISTRIBUTION IS TAKEN AS A RESULT OF DEATH, ANNUITIZATION, OR
TO MEET MINIMUM DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. IN
ADDITION, NO RECAPTURE WILL TAKE PLACE AFTER THE SEVENTH CONTRACT YEAR.
After the end of the first seven contract years, the 0.45% charge for the Extra
Value Option will no longer be assessed and the amount credited will be fully
vested. Nationwide intends to administer the removal of the 0.45% rider option
charge by decreasing the number of units and increasing the unit value of the
sub-accounts in which the contract owner was invested at the end of the seventh
contract year. The elimination of the 0.45% charge and the adjustment in the
number of units and unit values will not affect contract owners' contract
values.
Upon annuitization of the contract, any amounts assessed for any rider options
elected will be waived and only those charges applicable to the base contract
will be assessed.

<PAGE> 47
CONTRACT OWNERSHIP
The contract owner has all rights under the contract. Purchasers who name
someone other than themselves as the contract owner will have no rights under
the contract.
Contract owners of Non-Qualified Contracts may name a new contract owner at any
time before the annuitization date. Any change of contract owner automatically
revokes any prior contract owner designation. Changes in contract ownership may
result in federal income taxation and may be subject to state and federal gift
taxes.
A change in contract ownership must be submitted in writing and recorded at
Nationwide's home office. Once recorded, the change will be effective as of the
date signed. However, the change will not affect any payments made or actions
taken by Nationwide before it was recorded.
The contract owner may also request a change in the annuitant, contingent
annuitant, contingent owner, beneficiary, or contingent beneficiary before the
annuitization date. These changes must be:
- on a Nationwide form;
- signed by the contract owner; and
- received at Nationwide's home office before the annuitization date.
Nationwide must review and approve any change requests. If the contract owner is
not a natural person and there is a change of the annuitant, distributions will
be made as if the contract owner died at the time of the change.
On the annuitization date, the annuitant will become the contract owner, unless
the contract owner is a Charitable Remainder Trust.
JOINT OWNERSHIP
Joint owners each own an undivided interest in the contract.
Contract owners can name a joint owner at any time before annuitization subject
to the following conditions:
- joint owners can only be named for Non-Qualified Contracts;
- joint owners must be spouses at the time joint ownership is requested,
unless state law requires Nationwide to allow non-spousal joint
owners;
- the exercise of any ownership right in the contract will generally
require a written request signed by both joint owners;
- an election in writing signed by both contract owners must be made to
authorize Nationwide to allow the exercise of ownership rights
independently by either joint owner; and
- Nationwide will not be liable for any loss, liability, cost, or
expense for acting in accordance with the instructions of either joint
owner.
CONTINGENT OWNERSHIP
The contingent owner is entitled to certain benefits under the contract if a
contract owner who is NOT the annuitant dies before the annuitization date, and
there is no surviving joint owner.
The contract owner may name or change a contingent owner at any time before the
annuitization date. To change the contingent owner, a written request must be
submitted to Nationwide. Once Nationwide has recorded the change, it will be
effective as of the date it was signed, whether or not the contract owner was
living at the time it was recorded. The change will not affect any action taken
by Nationwide before the change was recorded.
ANNUITANT
The annuitant is the person who will receive annuity payments and upon whose
continuation of life any annuity payment involving life contingencies depends.
This person must be age 85 or younger at the time of contract issuance (age 83
or younger if electing a Guaranteed Minimum Income Benefit option), unless
Nationwide approves a request for an annuitant of greater age. The annuitant may
be changed
31
<PAGE> 48
before the annuitization date with Nationwide's consent.
BENEFICIARY AND CONTINGENT BENEFICIARY
The beneficiary is the person who is entitled to the death benefit if the
annuitant dies before the annuitization date and there is no joint owner. The
contract owner can name more than one beneficiary. Multiple beneficiaries will
share the death benefit equally, unless otherwise specified.
The contract owner may change the beneficiary or contingent beneficiary during
the annuitant's lifetime by submitting a written request to Nationwide. Once
recorded, the change will be effective as of the date it was signed, whether or
not the annuitant was living at the time it was recorded. The change will not
affect any action taken by Nationwide before the change was recorded.

</TABLE>
Subsequent purchase payments are not permitted for contracts issued in the State
of Oregon and may not be permitted in other states under certain circumstances.
If the contract owner elects the Reduced Purchase Payment Option, minimum
initial and subsequent purchase payments will be reduced accordingly.
If the contract owner elects the Extra Value Option, amounts credited to the
contract may not be used to meet the minimum initial and subsequent purchase
payment requirements.
Guaranteed Term Options
Guaranteed Term Options are separate investment options under the contract. The
minimum amount that may be allocated to a Guaranteed Term Option is $1,000.
PRICING
Initial purchase payments allocated to sub-accounts will be priced at the
accumulation unit value determined no later than 2 business days after receipt
of an order to purchase if the application and all necessary information are
complete. If the application is not complete, Nationwide may retain a purchase
payment for up to 5 business days while attempting to complete it. If the
application is not completed within 5 business days, the prospective purchaser
will be informed of the reason for the delay. The purchase payment will be
returned unless the prospective purchaser specifically allows Nationwide to hold
the purchase payment until the application is completed.
Subsequent purchase payments will be priced based on the next available
accumulation unit value after the payment is received. The cumulative total of
all purchase payments under contracts issued by Nationwide on the life of any
one annuitant cannot exceed $1,000,000 without Nationwide's prior consent.
Purchase payments will not be priced when the New York Stock Exchange is closed
or on the following nationally recognized holidays:
- New Year's Day - Independence Day
- Martin Luther King, Jr. - Labor Day Day
- Presidents' Day - Thanksgiving
- Good Friday - Christmas
- Memorial Day
Nationwide also will not price purchase payments if:
(1) trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted;
(2) an emergency exists making disposal or valuation of securities held in
the variable account impracticable; or
32
<PAGE> 49
(3) the SEC, by order, permits a suspension or postponement for the
protection of security holders.
Rules and regulations of the SEC will govern as to when the conditions described
in (2) and (3) exist. If Nationwide is closed on days when the New York Stock
Exchange is open, contract value may be affected since the contract owner will
not have access to their account.
ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS
Nationwide allocates purchase payments to sub-accounts, the fixed account,
and/or Guaranteed Term Options as instructed by the contract owner. Shares of
the underlying mutual funds allocated to the sub-accounts are purchased at net
asset value, then converted into accumulation units. Contract owners can change
allocations or make exchanges among the sub-accounts, fixed account or
Guaranteed Term Options. However, no change may be made that would result in an
amount less than 1% of the purchase payments being allocated to any sub-account.
Certain transactions may be subject to conditions imposed by the underlying
mutual funds, as well as those set forth in the contract.
DETERMINING THE CONTRACT VALUE
The contract value is the sum of:
(1) the value of amounts allocated to the sub-accounts of the variable
account; and
(2) amounts allocated to the fixed account; and
(3) amounts allocated to a Guaranteed Term Option.
If part or all of the contract value is surrendered, or charges are assessed
against the whole contract value, Nationwide will deduct a proportionate amount
from each sub-account, the fixed account and any Guaranteed Term Option based on
current cash values.
Determining Variable Account Value - Valuing an Accumulation Unit
Purchase payments or transfers allocated to sub-accounts are accounted for in
accumulation units. Accumulation unit values (for each sub-account) are
determined by calculating the net investment factor for the underlying mutual
funds for the current valuation period and multiplying that result with the
accumulation unit values determined on the previous valuation period.
Nationwide uses the net investment factor as a way to calculate the investment
performance of a sub-account from valuation period to valuation period. For each
sub-account, the net investment factor shows the investment performance of the
underlying mutual fund in which a particular sub-account invests, including the
charges assessed against that sub-account for a valuation period.
The net investment factor for any particular sub-account is determined by
dividing (a) by (b), and then subtracting (c) from the result, where:
(a) is:
(1) the net asset value of the underlying mutual fund as of the end of the
current valuation period; and
(2) the per share amount of any dividend or income distributions made by
the underlying mutual fund (if the ex-dividend date occurs during the
current valuation period).
(b) is the net asset value of the underlying mutual fund determined as of the
end of the preceding valuation period.
(c) is a factor representing the daily variable account charges, which may
include charges for contract options chosen by the contract owner. The
factor is equal to an annual rate ranging from 0.95% to 2.70% of the daily
net assets of the variable account, depending on which contract features
the contract owner chooses.
Based on the change in the net investment factor, the value of an accumulation
unit may increase or decrease. Changes in the net investment factor may not be
directly proportional to changes in the net asset value of
33
<PAGE> 50
the underlying mutual fund shares because of the deduction of variable account
charges.
Though the number of accumulation units will not change as a result of
investment experience, the value of an accumulation unit may increase or
decrease from valuation period to valuation period.
Determining Fixed Account Value
Nationwide determines the value of the fixed account by:
(1) adding all amounts allocated to the fixed account, minus amounts
previously transferred or withdrawn; and
(2) adding any interest earned on the amounts allocated.
Determining the Guaranteed Term Option Value
Nationwide determines the value of a Guaranteed Term Option by:
(1) adding all amounts allocated to any Guaranteed Term Option, minus
amounts previously transferred or withdrawn (which may be subject to a
market value adjustment); and
(2) adding any interest earned on the amounts allocated to any Guaranteed
Term Option.
TRANSFERS PRIOR TO ANNUITIZATION
Transfers from the Fixed Account to the Variable Account or a Guaranteed Term
Option
Fixed account allocations may be transferred to the variable account or to a
Guaranteed Term Option only upon reaching the end of an interest rate guarantee
period. Normally, Nationwide will permit 100% of such fixed account allocations
to be transferred to the variable account or a Guaranteed Term Option; however
Nationwide may, under certain economic conditions and at its discretion, limit
the maximum transferable amount. Under no circumstances will the maximum
transferable amount be less than 10% of the fixed account allocation reaching
the end of an interest rate guarantee period. Transfers of the fixed account
allocations must be made within 45 days after reaching the end of an interest
rate guarantee period.
Contract owners who use Dollar Cost Averaging may transfer from the fixed
account to the variable account (but not to Guaranteed Term Options) under the
terms of that program (see "Dollar Cost Averaging").
Transfers to the Fixed Account
Variable account allocations may be transferred to the fixed account at any
time. Normally, Nationwide will not restrict transfers from the variable account
to the fixed account; however, Nationwide may establish a maximum transfer limit
from the variable account to the fixed account. Except as noted below, under no
circumstances will the transfer limit be less than 10% of the current value of
the variable account, less any transfers made in the 12 months preceding the
date the transfer is requested, but not including transfers made prior to the
imposition of the transfer limit. However, where permitted by state law,
Nationwide reserves the right to refuse transfers or purchase payments to the
fixed account (whether from the variable account or a Guaranteed Term Option)
when the fixed account value is greater than or equal to 30% of the contract
value at the time the purchase payment is made or the transfer is requested.
Transfers from a Guaranteed Term Option
Transfers from a Guaranteed Term Option prior to maturity are subject to a
market value adjustment.
Transfers Among the Sub-Accounts
Allocations may be transferred among the sub-accounts once per valuation period.
TRANSFERS AFTER ANNUITIZATION
After annuitization, transfers may only be made on the anniversary of the
annuitization date.
TRANSFER REQUESTS
Nationwide will accept transfer requests in writing or, in those states that
allow them, over the telephone. Nationwide will use reasonable procedures to
confirm that telephone
34
<PAGE> 51
instructions are genuine and will not be liable for following telephone
instructions that it reasonably determined to be genuine. Nationwide may
withdraw the telephone exchange privilege upon 30 days written notice to
contract owners.
Amounts transferred to the variable account will receive the accumulation unit
value next determined after the transfer request is received.
Interest Rate Guarantee Period
The interest rate guarantee period is the period of time that the fixed account
interest rate is guaranteed to remain the same. Within 45 days of the end of an
interest rate guarantee period, transfers may be made from the fixed account to
the variable account or to the Guaranteed Term Options. Nationwide will
determine the amount that may be transferred and will declare this amount at the
end of the guarantee period. This amount will not be less than 10% of the amount
in the fixed account that is maturing.
For new purchase payments allocated to the fixed account, or transfers to the
fixed account from the variable account or a Guaranteed Term Option, this period
begins on the date of deposit or transfer and ends on the one year anniversary
of the deposit or transfer. The guaranteed interest rate period may last for up
to 3 months beyond the 1 year anniversary because guaranteed terms end on the
last day of a calendar quarter.
The interest rate guarantee period does not in any way refer to interest rate
crediting practices connected with Guaranteed Term Options.
During an interest rate guarantee period, transfers cannot be made from the
fixed account, and amounts transferred to the fixed account must remain on
deposit.
Market Timing Firms
Some contract owners may use market timing firms or other third parties to make
transfers on their behalf. Generally, in order to take advantage of perceived
market trends, market timing firms will submit transfer or exchange requests on
behalf of multiple contract owners at the same time. Sometimes this can result
in unusually large transfers of funds. These large transfers might interfere
with the ability of Nationwide or the underlying mutual fund to process
transactions. This can potentially disadvantage contract owners not using market
timing firms. To avoid this, Nationwide may modify transfer and exchange rights
of contract owners who use market timing firms (or other third parties) to
transfer or exchange funds on their behalf.
The exchange and transfer rights of individual contract owners will not be
modified in any way when instructions are submitted directly by the contract
owner, or by the contract owner's representative (as authorized by the execution
of a valid Nationwide Limited Power of Attorney Form).
To protect contract owners, Nationwide may refuse exchange and transfer
requests:
- submitted by any agent acting under a power of attorney on behalf of more
than one contract owner; or
- submitted on behalf of individual contract owners who have executed
pre-authorized exchange forms which are submitted by market timing firms
(or other third parties) on behalf of more than one contract owner at the
same time.
Nationwide will not restrict exchange rights unless Nationwide believes it to be
necessary for the protection of all contract owners.
RIGHT TO REVOKE
Contract owners have a ten day "free look" to examine the contract. The contract
may be returned to Nationwide's home office for any reason within ten days of
receipt and Nationwide will refund the contract value or another amount required
by law. The refunded contract value will reflect the deduction of any contract
charges, unless otherwise required by law. All Individual Retirement Annuity,
SEP IRA, Simple IRA and Roth IRA refunds will be a return of purchase payments.
State and/or
35
<PAGE> 52
federal law may provide additional free look privileges.
Contract owners who have elected the Extra Value Option and subsequently
terminate the contract under the free look provision will forfeit any amounts
credited to the contract. For those jurisdictions that allow a return of
contract value, the contract owner will retain any earnings attributable to the
amount credited; all losses attributable to the amount credited will be incurred
by Nationwide.
Liability of the variable account under this provision is limited to the
contract value in each sub-account on the date of revocation. Any additional
amounts refunded to the contract owner will be paid by Nationwide.
SURRENDER (REDEMPTION)
Contract owners may surrender some or all of their contract value before the
earlier of the annuitization date or the annuitant's death. Surrender requests
must be in writing and Nationwide may require additional information. When
taking a full surrender, the contract must accompany the written request.
Nationwide may require a signature guarantee.
If the Extra Value Option has been elected, and the amount withdrawn is subject
to a CDSC, then for the first seven contract years only, a portion of the amount
credited under the Extra Value Option may be recaptured. No recapture will take
place after the seventh contract year. The amount credited will not, however, be
subject to recapture if a withdrawal not subject to the CDSC is being made (see
"Extra Value Option").
Nationwide will pay any amounts surrendered from the sub-accounts within 7 days.
However, Nationwide may suspend or postpone payment when it is unable to price a
purchase payment or transfer.
PARTIAL SURRENDERS (PARTIAL REDEMPTIONS)
Nationwide will surrender accumulation units from the sub-accounts and an amount
from the fixed account and Guaranteed Term Options. The amount withdrawn from
each investment option will be in proportion to the value in each option at the
time of the surrender request.
A CDSC may apply. The contract owner may take the CDSC from either:
(a) the amount requested; or
(b) the contract value remaining after the contract owner has received the
amount requested.
If the contract owner does not make a specific election, any applicable CDSC
will be taken from the contract value remaining after the contract owner has
received the amount requested.
The CDSC deducted is a percentage of the amount requested by the contract owner.
Amounts deducted for CDSC are not subject to subsequent CDSC.
FULL SURRENDERS (FULL REDEMPTIONS)
The contract value upon full surrender may be more or less than the total of all
purchase payments made to the contract. The contract value will reflect variable
account charges, underlying mutual fund charges and the investment performance
of the underlying mutual funds. A CDSC may apply.
SURRENDERS UNDER A TEXAS OPTIONAL RETIREMENT PROGRAM OR A LOUISIANA OPTIONAL
RETIREMENT PLAN
Redemption restrictions apply to contracts issued under the Texas Optional
Retirement Program or the Louisiana Optional Retirement Plan.
The Texas Attorney General has ruled that participants in contracts issued under
the Texas Optional Retirement Program may only take withdrawals if:
- the participant dies;
- the participant retires;
- the participant terminates employment due to total disability; or
36
<PAGE> 53
- the participant that works in a Texas public institution of higher
education terminates employment.
A participant under a contract issued under the Louisiana Optional Retirement
Plan may only take distributions from the contract upon retirement or
termination of employment. All retirement benefits under this type of plan must
be paid as lifetime income; lump sum cash payments are not permitted, except for
death benefits.
Due to the restrictions described above, a participant under either of these
plans will not be able to withdraw cash values from the contract unless one of
the applicable conditions is met. However, contract value may be transferred to
other carriers, subject to any CDSC.
Nationwide issues this contract to participants in the Texas Optional Retirement
Program in reliance upon and in compliance with Rule 6c-7 of the Investment
Company Act of 1940. Nationwide issues this contract to participants in the
Louisiana Optional Retirement Plan in reliance upon and in compliance with an
exemptive order that Nationwide received from the SEC on August 22, 1990.
SURRENDERS UNDER A TAX SHELTERED ANNUITY
Contract owners of a Tax Sheltered Annuity may surrender part or all of their
contract value before the earlier of the annuitization date or the annuitant's
death, except as provided below:
A. Contract value attributable to contributions made under a qualified cash or
deferred arrangement (within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section
402(g)(3)(A)), a salary reduction agreement (within the meaning of Internal
Revenue Code Section 402(g)(3)(C)), or transfers from a Custodial Account
(described in Section 403(b)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code), may be
surrendered only:
1. when the contract owner reaches age 59 1/2, separates from service,
dies, or becomes disabled (within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code
Section 72(m)(7)); or
2. in the case of hardship (as defined for purposes of Internal Revenue
Code Section 401(k)), provided that any such hardship surrender may
NOT include any income earned on salary reduction contributions.
B. The surrender limitations described in Section A also apply to:
1. salary reduction contributions to Tax Sheltered Annuities made for
plan years beginning after December 31, 1988;
2. earnings credited to such contracts after the last plan year beginning
before January 1, 1989, on amounts attributable to salary reduction
contributions; and
3. all amounts transferred from 403(b)(7) Custodial Accounts (except that
earnings and employer contributions as of December 31, 1988 in such
Custodial Accounts may be withdrawn in the case of hardship).
C. Any distribution other than the above, including a ten day free look
cancellation of the contract (when available) may result in taxes,
penalties, and/or retroactive disqualification of a Tax Sheltered Annuity.
In order to prevent disqualification of a Tax Sheltered Annuity after a ten day
free look cancellation, Nationwide will transfer the proceeds to another Tax
Sheltered Annuity upon proper direction by the contract owner.
These provisions explain Nationwide's understanding of current withdrawal
restrictions. These restrictions may change.
Distributions pursuant to Qualified Domestic Relations Orders will not violate
the restrictions stated above.
LOAN PRIVILEGE
The loan privilege is ONLY available to owners of Tax Sheltered Annuities. These
contract owners can take loans from the contract value beginning
37
<PAGE> 54
30 days after the contract is issued up to the annuitization date. Loans are
subject to the terms of the contract, the plan, and the Internal Revenue Code.
Nationwide may modify the terms of a loan to comply with changes in applicable
law.
MINIMUM & MAXIMUM LOAN AMOUNTS
Contract owners may borrow a minimum of $1,000, unless Nationwide is required by
law to allow a lesser minimum amount. Each loan must individually satisfy the
contract minimum amount.
Nationwide will calculate the maximum nontaxable loan amount based upon
information provided by the participant or the employer. Loans may be taxable if
a participant has additional loans from other plans. The total of all
outstanding loans must not exceed the following limits:
CONTRACT MAXIMUM OUTSTANDING LOAN
VALUES BALANCE ALLOWED
-------- ------------------------
NON-ERISA PLANS up to up to 80% of contract
$20,000 value (not more than
$10,000)
$20,000 up to 50% of contract
and over value (not more than
$50,000*)
ERISA PLANS All up to 50% of contract
value (not more than
$50,000*)
*The $50,000 limits will be reduced by the highest outstanding balance owed
during the previous 12 months.
For salary reduction Tax Sheltered Annuities, loans may be secured only by the
contract value.
LOAN PROCESSING FEE
Nationwide may charge a loan processing fee at the time each new loan is
processed. If assessed, this fee compensates Nationwide for expenses related to
administering and processing loans. Loans are not available in all states. In
addition, some states may not allow Nationwide to assess a Loan Processing Fee.
The fee is taken from the sub-accounts, fixed account, and Guaranteed Term
Options in proportion to the contract value at the time the loan is processed.
HOW LOAN REQUESTS ARE PROCESSED
All loans are made from the collateral fixed account. Nationwide transfers
accumulation units in proportion to the assets in each sub-account to the
collateral fixed account until the requested amount is reached. If there are not
enough accumulation units available in the contract to reach the requested loan
amount, Nationwide next transfers contract value from the fixed account. Any
remaining required collateral will be transferred from the Guaranteed Term
Options. Transfers from the Guaranteed Term Options may be subject to a market
value adjustment. No CDSC will be deducted on transfers related to loan
processing.
LOAN INTEREST
The outstanding loan balance in the collateral fixed account is credited with
interest until the loan is repaid in full. The interest rate will be 2.25% less
than the loan interest rate fixed by Nationwide. The interest rate is guaranteed
never to fall below 3.0%.
Specific loan terms are disclosed at the time of loan application or issuance.
LOAN REPAYMENT
Loans must be repaid in five years. However, if the loan is used to purchase the
contract owner's principal residence, the contract owner has 15 years to repay
the loan.
Contract owners must identify loan repayments as loan repayments or they will be
treated as purchase payments and will not reduce the outstanding loan. Payments
must be substantially level and made at least quarterly.
Loan repayments will consist of principal and interest in amounts set forth in
the loan agreement. Repayments are allocated to the sub-accounts in accordance
with the contract, unless Nationwide and the contract owner have agreed to amend
the contract at a later date on a case by case basis.
Loan repayments to the Guaranteed Term Options must be at least $1,000. If the
proportional share of the repayment to the Guaranteed Term Option is less than
$1,000,
38
<PAGE> 55
that portion of the repayment will be allocated to the NSAT Money Market Fund
unless the contract owner directs otherwise.
DISTRIBUTIONS & ANNUITY PAYMENTS
Distributions made from the contract while a loan is outstanding will be reduced
by the amount of the outstanding loan plus accrued interest if:
- the contract is surrendered;
- the contract owner/annuitant dies;
- the contract owner who is not the annuitant dies prior to
annuitization; or
- annuity payments begin.
TRANSFERRING THE CONTRACT
Nationwide reserves the right to restrict any transfer of the contract while the
loan is outstanding.
GRACE PERIOD & LOAN DEFAULT
If a loan payment is not made when due, interest will continue to accrue. A
grace period may be available (please refer to the terms of the loan agreement).
If a loan payment is not made by the end of the applicable grace period, the
entire loan will be treated as a deemed distribution and will be taxable to the
borrower. This deemed distribution may also be subject to an early withdrawal
tax penalty by the Internal Revenue Service.
After default, interest will continue to accrue on the loan. Defaulted amounts,
plus interest, are deducted from the contract value when the participant is
eligible for a distribution of at least that amount. Additional loans are not
available while a previous loan is in default.
ASSIGNMENT
Contract rights are personal to the contract owner and may not be assigned
without Nationwide's written consent.
A Non-Qualified Contract owner may assign some or all rights under the contract.
An assignment must occur before annuitization while the annuitant is alive. Once
proper notice of assignment is recorded by Nationwide's home office, the
assignment will become effective as of the date the written request was signed.
Investment-only Contracts, Individual Retirement Annuities, Roth IRAs, SEP IRAs,
Simple IRAs, and Tax Sheltered Annuities may not be assigned, pledged or
otherwise transferred except where allowed by law.
Nationwide is not responsible for the validity or tax consequences of any
assignment. Nationwide is not liable for any payment or settlement made before
the assignment is recorded. Assignments will not be recorded until Nationwide
receives sufficient direction from the contract owner and the assignee regarding
the proper allocation of contract rights.
Amounts pledged or assigned will be treated as distributions and will be
included in gross income to the extent that the cash value exceeds the
investment in the contract for the taxable year in which it was pledged or
assigned. Amounts assigned may be subject to a tax penalty equal to 10% of the
amount included in gross income.
Assignment of the entire contract value may cause the portion of the contract
value exceeding the total investment in the contract and previously taxed
amounts to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes each year
that the assignment is in effect.
CONTRACT OWNER SERVICES
ASSET REBALANCING
Asset rebalancing is the automatic reallocation of contract values to the
sub-accounts on a predetermined percentage basis. Asset rebalancing is not
available for assets held in the fixed account or the Guaranteed Term Options.
Requests for asset rebalancing must be on a Nationwide form.
Asset rebalancing occurs every three months or on another frequency if permitted
by Nationwide. If the last day of the three-month
39
<PAGE> 56
period falls on a Saturday, Sunday, recognized holiday, or any other day when
the New York Stock Exchange is closed, asset rebalancing will occur on the next
business day.
Asset rebalancing may be subject to employer limitations or restrictions for
contracts issued to a Tax Sheltered Annuity plan. Contract owners should consult
a financial adviser to discuss the use of asset rebalancing.
Nationwide reserves the right to stop establishing new asset rebalancing
programs. Nationwide also reserves the right to assess a processing fee for this
service.
DOLLAR COST AVERAGING
Dollar Cost Averaging is a long-term transfer program that allows you to make
regular, level investments over time. It involves the automatic transfer of a
specified amount from the fixed account and/or certain sub-accounts into other
sub-accounts. Nationwide does not guarantee that this program will result in
profit or protect contract owners from loss.
Contract owners direct Nationwide to automatically transfer specified amounts
from the fixed account and the Federated Insurance Series - Federated Quality
Bond Fund II, Fidelity VIP High Income Portfolio, NSAT Government Bond Fund,
NSAT Nationwide High Income Bond Fund, and NSAT Money Market Fund to any other
underlying mutual fund. Dollar Cost Averaging transfers may not be directed to
Guaranteed Term Options.
Transfers occur monthly or on another frequency if permitted by Nationwide.
Nationwide will process transfers until either the value in the originating
investment option is exhausted, or the contract owner instructs Nationwide in
writing to stop the transfers.
Nationwide reserves the right to stop establishing new Dollar Cost Averaging
programs. Nationwide also reserves the right to assess a processing fee for this
service.
Dollar Cost Averaging from the Fixed Account
Transfers from the fixed account must be equal to or less than 1/30th of the
fixed account value at the time the program is requested. A Dollar Cost
Averaging program which transfers amounts from the fixed account to the variable
account is not the same as an Enhanced Rate Dollar Cost Averaging program.
Contract owners that wish to utilize Dollar Cost Averaging from the fixed
account should first inquire whether any Enhanced Rate Dollar Cost Averaging
programs are available.
Enhanced Rate Dollar Cost Averaging
Nationwide may, from time to time, offer Enhanced Rate Dollar Cost Averaging
programs. Contract owners may participate in this program if their contract
value is $10,000 or more. Dollar Cost Averaging transfers for this program may
only be made from the fixed account. Such Enhanced Rate Dollar Cost Averaging
programs allow the contract owner to earn a higher rate of interest on assets in
the fixed account than would normally be credited when not participating in the
program. Each enhanced interest rate is guaranteed for as long as the
corresponding program is in effect. Nationwide will process transfers until
either amounts in the enhanced rate fixed account are exhausted, or the contract
owner instructs Nationwide in writing to stop the transfers. For this program
only, when a written request to discontinue transfers is received, Nationwide
will automatically transfer the remaining amount in the enhanced rate fixed
account to the NSAT Money Market Fund.
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWALS
Systematic withdrawals allow contract owners to receive a specified amount (of
at least $100) on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis. Requests
for systematic withdrawals and requests to discontinue systematic withdrawals
must be in writing.
The withdrawals will be taken from the sub-accounts and the fixed account
proportionately unless Nationwide is instructed otherwise. Systematic
withdrawals are not available from the Guaranteed Term Options.
Nationwide will withhold federal income taxes from systematic withdrawals unless
otherwise
40
<PAGE> 57
instructed by the contract owner. The Internal Revenue Service may impose a 10%
penalty tax if the contract owner is under age 59 1/2 unless the contract owner
has made an irrevocable election of distributions of substantially equal
payments.
If the contract owner takes systematic withdrawals, the maximum amount that can
be withdrawn annually without a CDSC is the greatest of:
(1) 10% of all purchase payments made to the contract as of the withdrawal
date;
(2) an amount withdrawn to meet minimum distribution requirements under
the Internal Revenue Code; or
(3) a percentage of the contract value based on the contract owner's age,
as shown in the table below:
CONTRACT OWNER'S PERCENTAGE OF
AGE CONTRACT VALUE
---------------- --------------
Under age 59 1/2 5%
Age 59 1/2 through age 61 7%
Age 62 through age 64 8%
Age 65 through age 74 10%
Age 75 and over 13%
Contract value and contract owner's age are determined as of the date the
request for the withdrawal program is recorded by Nationwide's home office. For
joint owners, the older joint owner's age will be used.
If total amounts withdrawn in any contract year exceed the CDSC-free amount
described above, those amounts will only be eligible for the 10% of purchase
payment CDSC-free withdrawal privilege described in the "Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge" section. The total amount of CDSC for that contract year will be
determined in accordance with that provision.
The CDSC-free withdrawal privilege for systematic withdrawals is non-cumulative.
Free amounts not taken during any contract year cannot be taken as free amounts
in a subsequent contract year.
Nationwide reserves the right to stop establishing new systematic withdrawal
programs. Nationwide also reserves the right to assess a processing fee for this
service. Systematic withdrawals are not available before the end of the ten-day
free look period (see "Right to Revoke").
ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE
The annuity commencement date is the date on which annuity payments are
scheduled to begin. The contract owner may change the annuity commencement date
before annuitization. This change must be in writing and approved by Nationwide.
ANNUITIZING THE CONTRACT
ANNUITIZATION DATE
The annuitization date is the date that annuity payments begin. It will be the
first day of a calendar month unless otherwise agreed, and must be at least 2
years after the contract is issued. If the contract is issued to fund a Tax
Sheltered Annuity, annuitization may occur during the first 2 years subject to
Nationwide's approval.
ANNUITIZATION
Annuitization is the period during which annuity payments are received. It is
irrevocable once payments have begun. Upon arrival of the annuitization date,
the annuitant must choose:
(1) an annuity payment option; and
(2) either a fixed payment annuity, variable payment annuity, or an
available combination.
Nationwide guarantees that each payment under a fixed payment annuity will be
the same throughout annuitization. Under a variable payment annuity, the amount
of each payment will vary with the performance of the underlying mutual funds
chosen by the contract owner.
41
<PAGE> 58
FIXED PAYMENT ANNUITY
A fixed payment annuity is an annuity where the amount of the annuity payments
remains level.
The first payment under a fixed payment annuity is determined on the
annuitization date on an "age last birthday" basis by:
(1) deducting applicable premium taxes from the total contract value; then
(2) applying the contract value amount specified by the contract owner to
the fixed payment annuity table for the annuity payment option
elected.
Subsequent payments will remain level unless the annuity payment option elected
provides otherwise. Nationwide does not credit discretionary interest during
annuitization.
VARIABLE PAYMENT ANNUITY
A variable payment annuity is an annuity where the amount of the annuity
payments will vary depending on the performance of the underlying mutual funds
selected.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A VARIABLE PAYMENT ANNUITY MAY NOT BE ELECTED WHEN EXERCISING THE GUARANTEED
MINIMUM INCOME BENEFIT OPTION.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The first payment under a variable payment annuity is determined on the
annuitization date on an "age last birthday" basis by:
(1) deducting applicable premium taxes from the total contract value; then
(2) applying the contract value amount specified by the contract owner to
the variable payment annuity table for the annuity payment option
elected.
The dollar amount of the first payment is converted into a set number of annuity
units that will represent each monthly payment. This is done by dividing the
dollar amount of the first payment by the value of an annuity unit as of the
annuitization date. This number of annuity units remains fixed during
annuitization.
The second and subsequent payments are determined by multiplying the fixed
number of annuity units by the annuity unit value for the valuation period in
which the payment is due. The amount of the second and subsequent payments will
vary with the performance of the selected underlying mutual funds. Nationwide
guarantees that variations in mortality experience from assumptions used to
calculate the first payment will not affect the dollar amount of the second and
subsequent payments.
Assumed Investment Rate
An assumed investment rate is the percentage rate of return assumed to determine
the amount of the first payment under a variable payment annuity. Nationwide
uses the assumed investment rate of 3.5% to calculate the first annuity payment
and to calculate the investment performance of an underlying mutual fund in
order to determine subsequent payments under a variable payment annuity. An
assumed investment rate is the percentage rate of return required to maintain
level variable annuity payments. Subsequent variable annuity payments may be
more or less than the first payment based on whether actual investment
performance of the underlying mutual funds is higher or lower than the assumed
investment rate of 3.5%.
Value of an Annuity Unit
Annuity unit values for sub-accounts are determined by multiplying the net
investment factor for the valuation period for which the annuity unit is being
calculated by the immediately preceding valuation period's annuity unit value,
and multiplying the result by an interest factor to neutralize the assumed
investment rate of 3.5% per annum built into the variable payment annuity
purchase rate basis in the contracts.
Exchanges among Underlying Mutual Funds
Exchanges among underlying mutual funds during annuitization must be in writing.
Exchanges will occur on each anniversary of the annuitization date.
FREQUENCY AND AMOUNT OF ANNUITY PAYMENTS
Payments are made based on the annuity payment option selected, unless:
42
<PAGE> 59
- the amount to be distributed is less than $5,000, in which case
Nationwide may make one lump sum payment of the contract value; or
- an annuity payment would be less than $50, in which case Nationwide
can change the frequency of payments to intervals that will result in
payments of at least $50. Payments will be made at least annually.
GUARANTEED MINIMUM INCOME BENEFIT OPTION ("GMIB")
What is a GMIB?
A GMIB is a benefit which ensures the availability of a minimum amount when the
contract owner wishes to annuitize the contract. This minimum amount, referred
to as the Guaranteed Annuitization Value, may be used at specified times to
provide a guaranteed level of determinable lifetime annuity payments. The GMIB
may provide protection in the event of lower contract values that may result
from the investment performance of the contract.
How is the Guaranteed Annuitization Value Determined?
The Guaranteed Annuitization Value is equal to (a) - (b), but will never be
greater than 200% of all purchase payments, where:
(a) is the sum of all purchase payments, occurring immediately prior to
the annuitant's 86th birthday; and
(b) is the reduction to (a) due to surrenders made from the contract. All
such as reductions to the contract value caused by surrenders. For
example, a surrender which reduces the contract value by 25% will also
reduce the Guaranteed Annuitization Value by 25%.
Special Restrictions for a GMIB
After the first contract year, if the value of the contract owner's fixed
account allocation becomes greater than 30% of the contract value in any
contract year due to:
(1) the application of additional purchase payments;
(2) surrenders; or
(3) transfers from the variable account,
then 0% interest will accrue in that contract year for purposes of calculating
the Guaranteed Annuitization Value.
If the contract owner's fixed account allocation becomes greater than 30% of the
contract value solely as a result of fluctuations in the value of the variable
account, then interest will continue to accrue for the purposes of the
Guaranteed Annuitization Value at 5% annually, subject to the other terms and
conditions outlined herein.

<PAGE> 60
GMIB Illustrations
The following charts illustrate the amount of income that will be provided to an
annuitant if the contract owner annuitizes the contract at the 7th, 10th or 15th
contract anniversary date, using the GMIB.
The illustrations assume the following:
- An initial purchase payment of $100,000 is made to the contract and
allocated to the variable account;
- There are no surrenders from the contract or transfers to the fixed
account (raising the fixed account value to greater than 30% of the
contract value);
- The contract is issued to a MALE at age 55, 65 or 70; and
- A Life Annuity with 120 Months Guaranteed Fixed Payment Annuity Option is
elected.

*Guaranteed Monthly Benefit per $1,000 applied
The illustrations should be used as a tool to assist an investor in determining
whether purchasing and exercising a GMIB option is right for them. The
guaranteed purchase rates assumed in the illustrations may not apply in some
states, or for contracts issued under an employer sponsored plan. Different
guaranteed purchase rates will apply for females, for males who annuitize at
ages other than the ages shown above, or for annuitizations under other annuity
payment options. Where different guaranteed purchase rates apply, GMIB amounts
shown above will be different. In all cases, the guaranteed purchase rates used
to calculate the GMIB will be the same as the purchase rates guaranteed in the
contract for fixed annuitizations without the GMIB.
The purchase rates available in connection with annuitization options under a
GMIB are minimum guaranteed purchase rates. Alternative purchase rates, which
may be more favorable, may apply to annuitizations which occur without a GMIB
option.
44
<PAGE> 61
When May the Guaranteed Annuitization Value be Used?
The contract owner may use the Guaranteed Annuitization Value by annuitizing the
contract during the thirty day period following any contract anniversary:
(1) after the contract has been in effect for seven years; AND
(2) the annuitant has attained age 60.
What Annuity Payment Options May Be Used With the Guaranteed Annuitization
Value?
The contract owner may elect any life contingent FIXED ANNUITY PAYMENT OPTION
calculated using the guaranteed annuity purchase rates set forth in the
contract. Such Fixed Annuity Payment Options include:
- Life Annuity;
- Joint and Last Survivor Annuity; and
- Life Annuity with 120 or 240 Monthly Payments Guaranteed.
Other GMIB Terms and Conditions
**PLEASE READ CAREFULLY**
- The GMIB must be elected at the time of application.
- The annuitant must be age 82 or younger at the time the contract is
issued.
- The GMIB is irrevocable and will remain for as long as the contract
remains in force.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS TO KEEP IN MIND REGARDING THE GMIB OPTION
While a GMIB does provide a Guaranteed Annuitization Value, A GMIB MAY NOT BE
APPROPRIATE FOR ALL INVESTORS and should be understood completely and analyzed
thoroughly before being elected.
- A GMIB DOES NOT in any way guarantee the performance of any underlying
mutual fund, or any other investment option available under the contract.
- Once elected, the GMIB is irrevocable, meaning that even if the investment
performance of underlying mutual funds or other available investment
options surpasses the minimum guarantees associated with the GMIB, the GMIB
charges will still be assessed.
- The GMIB in no way restricts or limits the rights of contract owners to
annuitize the contract at other times permitted under the contract, nor
will it in any way restrict the right to annuitize the contract using
contract values that may be higher than the Guaranteed Annuitization Value.
- Please take advantage of the guidance of a qualified financial adviser in
evaluating the GMIB options, and all other aspects of the contract.
- GMIB may not be approved in all state jurisdictions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<PAGE> 62
ANNUITY PAYMENT OPTIONS
Contract owners must elect an annuity payment option before the annuitization
date. The annuity payment options are:
(1) LIFE ANNUITY - An annuity payable periodically, but at least annually, for
the lifetime of the annuitant. Payments will end upon the annuitant's
death. For example, if the annuitant dies before the second annuity payment
date, the annuitant will receive only one annuity payment. The annuitant
will only receive two annuity payments if he or she dies before the third
annuity payment date, and so on.
(2) JOINT AND LAST SURVIVOR ANNUITY - An annuity payable periodically, but at
least annually, during the joint lifetimes of the annuitant and a
designated second individual. If one of these parties dies, payments will
continue for the lifetime of the survivor. As is the case under option 1,
there is no guaranteed number of payments. Payments end upon the death of
the last surviving party, regardless of the number of payments received.
(3) LIFE ANNUITY WITH 120 OR 240 MONTHLY PAYMENTS GUARANTEED - An annuity
payable monthly during the lifetime of the annuitant. If the annuitant dies
before all of the guaranteed payments have been made, payments will
continue to the end of the guaranteed period and will be paid to a designee
chosen by the annuitant at the time the annuity payment option was elected.
The designee may elect to receive the present value of the remaining
guaranteed payments in a lump sum. The present value will be computed as of
the date Nationwide receives the notice of the annuitant's death.
Not all of the annuity payment options may be available in all states. Contract
owners may request other options before the annuitization date. These options
are subject to Nationwide's approval.
No distribution for Non-Qualified Contracts will be made until an annuity
payment option has been elected. Individual Retirement Annuities and Tax
Sheltered Annuities are subject to the "minimum distribution" requirements set
forth in the plan, contract, and the Internal Revenue Code.
DEATH BENEFITS
DEATH OF CONTRACT OWNER - NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACTS
If the contract owner who is not the annuitant dies before the annuitization
date, the joint owner becomes the contract owner. If no joint owner is named,
the contingent owner becomes the contract owner. If no contingent owner is
named, the last surviving contract owner's estate becomes the contract owner.
If the contract owner and annuitant are the same, and the contract
owner/annuitant dies before the annuitization date, the contingent owner will
not have any rights in the contract unless the contingent owner is also the
beneficiary.
Distributions under Non-Qualified Contracts will be made pursuant to the
"Required Distributions for Non-Qualified Contracts" provision.
DEATH OF ANNUITANT - NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACTS
If the annuitant who is not a contract owner dies before the annuitization date,
a death benefit is payable to the beneficiary unless a contingent annuitant is
named. If a contingent annuitant is named, the contingent annuitant becomes the
annuitant and no death benefit is payable.
The beneficiary may elect to receive the death benefit:
(1) in a lump sum;
(2) as an annuity; or
(3) in any other manner permitted by law and approved by Nationwide.
The beneficiary must notify Nationwide of this election within 60 days of the
annuitant's death.
If no beneficiary survives the annuitant, the contingent beneficiary receives
the death
46
<PAGE> 63
benefit. Contingent beneficiaries will share the death benefit equally, unless
otherwise specified.
If no beneficiaries or contingent beneficiaries survive the annuitant, the
contract owner or the last surviving contract owner's estate will receive the
death benefit.
If the contract owner is a Charitable Remainder Trust and the annuitant dies
before the annuitization date, the death benefit will accrue to the Charitable
Remainder Trust. Any designation in conflict with the Charitable Remainder
Trust's right to the death benefit will be void.
If the annuitant dies after the annuitization date, any benefit that may be
payable will be paid according to the selected annuity payment option.
DEATH OF CONTRACT OWNER/ANNUITANT
If a contract owner who is also the annuitant dies before the annuitization
date, a death benefit is payable according to the "Death of the Annuitant -
Non-Qualified Contracts" provision.
A joint owner will receive a death benefit if a contract owner/annuitant dies
before the annuitization date.
If the contract owner/annuitant dies after the annuitization date, any benefit
that may be payable will be paid according to the selected annuity payment
option.
DEATH BENEFIT PAYMENT
Contract owners may select one of three death benefits available under the
contract at the time of application (not all death benefit options may be
available in all states). If no selection is made at the time of application,
the death benefit will be the Five-Year Reset Death Benefit.
The death benefit value is determined as of the date Nationwide receives:
(1) proper proof of the annuitant's death;
(2) an election specifying the distribution method; and
(3) any state required form(s).
Five-Year Reset Death Benefit (Standard Contractual Death Benefit)
If the annuitant dies before the annuitization date, the death benefit will be
the greatest of:
(1) the contract value;
(2) the total of all purchase payments, less an adjustment for
amounts surrendered; or
(3) the contract value as of the most recent five year contract
anniversary before the annuitant's 86th birthday, less an
adjustment for amounts surrendered, plus purchase payments
received after that five year contract anniversary.
The adjustment for amounts surrendered will reduce items (2) and (3) above in
the same proportion that the contract value was reduced on the date(s) of the
partial surrender(s).
One-Year Step Up Death Benefit
If the annuitant dies before the annuitization date, the death benefit will be
the greatest of:
(1) the contract value;
(2) the total of all purchase payments, less an adjustment for
amounts surrendered; or
(3) the highest contract value on any contract anniversary before the
annuitant's 86th birthday, less an adjustment for amounts
subsequently surrendered, plus purchase payments received after
that contract anniversary.
The adjustment for amounts surrendered will reduce items (2) and (3) above in
the same proportion that the contract value was reduced on the date(s) of the
partial surrender(s).
5% Enhanced Death Benefit
If the annuitant dies before the annuitization date, the death benefit will be
the greater of:
(1) the contract value; or
(2) the total of all purchase payments, less any amounts surrendered,
accumulated at 5% simple interest from the date of each purchase
payment or surrender to the most recent contract anniversary
prior to the
47
<PAGE> 64
annuitant's 86th birthday, less an adjustment for amounts
subsequently surrendered, plus purchase payments received since
that contract anniversary.
The total accumulated amount will not exceed 200% of the net of purchase
payments and amounts surrendered. The adjustment for amounts subsequently
surrendered after the most recent contract anniversary will reduce the 5%
interest anniversary value in the same proportion that the contract value was
reduced on the date(s) of the partial surrender(s).
REQUIRED DISTRIBUTIONS
REQUIRED DISTRIBUTIONS FOR NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACTS
Internal Revenue Code Section 72(s) requires Nationwide to make certain
distributions when a contract owner dies. The following distributions will be
made according to those requirements:
(1) If any contract owner dies on or after the annuitization date and
before the entire interest in the contract has been distributed, then
the remaining interest must be distributed at least as rapidly as the
distribution method in effect on the contract owner's death.
(2) If any contract owner dies before the annuitization date, then the
entire interest in the contract (consisting of either the death
benefit or the contract value reduced by charges set forth elsewhere
in the contract) will be distributed within 5 years of the contract
owner's death, provided however:
(a) any interest payable to or for the benefit of a natural person
(referred to herein as a "designated beneficiary"), may be
distributed over the life of the designated beneficiary or over a
period not longer than the life expectancy of the designated
beneficiary. Payments must begin within one year of the contract
owner's death unless otherwise permitted by federal income tax
regulations;
(b) if the designated beneficiary is the surviving spouse of the
deceased contract owner, the spouse can choose to become the
contract owner instead of receiving a death benefit. Any
distributions required under these distribution rules will be
made upon that spouse's death.
In the event that the contract owner is NOT a natural person (e.g., a trust or
corporation), then, for purposes of these distribution provisions:
(a) the death of the annuitant will be treated as the death of a
contract owner;
(b) any change of annuitant will be treated as the death of a
contract owner; and
(c) in either case, the appropriate distribution will be made upon
the death or change, as the case may be.
These distribution provisions do not apply to any contract exempt from Section
72(s) of the Internal Revenue Code by reason of Section 72(s)(5) or any other
law or rule.
The designated beneficiary must elect a method of distribution and notify
Nationwide of this election within 60 days of the contract owner's death.
REQUIRED DISTRIBUTIONS FOR TAX SHELTERED ANNUITIES
Distributions from Tax Sheltered Annuities will be made according to the Minimum
Distribution and Incidental Benefit ("MDIB") provisions of Section 401(a)(9) of
the Internal Revenue Code. Distributions will be made to the annuitant according
to the selected annuity payment option over a period not longer than:
(a) the life of the annuitant or the joint lives of the annuitant and the
annuitant's designated beneficiary; or
(b) a period not longer than the life expectancy of the annuitant or the
joint life expectancies of the annuitant and the annuitant's
designated beneficiary.
Required distributions do not have to be withdrawn from this contract if they
are being
48
<PAGE> 65
withdrawn from another Tax Sheltered Annuity of the annuitant.
If the annuitant's entire interest in a Tax Sheltered Annuity will be
distributed in equal or substantially equal payments over a period described in
a) or b), the payments will begin on the required beginning date. The required
beginning date is the later of:
(a) April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the
annuitant reaches age 70 1/2; or
(b) the annuitant's retirement date.
Provision (b) does not apply to any employee who is a 5% owner (as defined in
Section 416 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the plan year ending
in the calendar year when the employee attains the age of 70 1/2.
Distribution commencing on the required distribution date must satisfy minimum
distribution and incidental benefit provisions set forth in the Internal Revenue
Code. Those provisions require that distributions cannot be less than the amount
determined by dividing the annuitant's interest in the Tax Sheltered Annuity
determined by the end of the previous calendar year by:
(a) the annuitant's life expectancy; or if applicable,
(b) the joint and survivor life expectancy of the annuitant and the
annuitant's beneficiary.
The life expectancies and joint life expectancies are determined by reference to
Treasury Regulation 1.72-9.
If the annuitant dies before distributions begin, the interest in the Tax
Sheltered Annuity must be distributed by December 31 of the calendar year in
which the fifth anniversary of the annuitant's death occurs unless:
(a) the annuitant names his or her surviving spouse as the beneficiary and
the spouse chooses to receive distribution of the contract in
substantially equal payments over his or her life (or a period not
longer than his or her life expectancy) and beginning no later than
December 31 of the year in which the annuitant would have attained age
70 1/2; or
(b) the annuitant names a beneficiary other than his or her surviving
spouse and the beneficiary elects to receive distribution of the
contract in substantially equal payments over his or her life (or a
period not longer than his or her life expectancy) beginning no later
than December 31 of the year following the year in which the annuitant
dies.
If the annuitant dies after distributions have begun, distributions must
continue at least as rapidly as under the schedule used before the annuitant's
death.
If distribution requirements are not met, a penalty tax of 50% is levied on the
difference between the amount that should have been distributed for that year
and the amount that actually was distributed for that year.
REQUIRED DISTRIBUTIONS FOR INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES, SEP IRAS AND SIMPLE
IRAS
Distributions from an Individual Retirement Annuity, SEP IRA or Simple IRA must
begin no later than April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in
which the contract owner reaches age 70 1/2. Distribution may be paid in a lump
sum or in substantially equal payments over:
(a) the contract owner's life or the lives of the contract owner and his
or her spouse or designated beneficiary; or
(b) a period not longer than the life expectancy of the contract owner or
the joint life expectancy of the contract owner and the contract
owner's designated beneficiary.
If the contract owner dies before distributions begin, the interest in the
Individual Retirement Annuity, SEP IRA or Simple IRA must be distributed by
December 31 of the calendar year
49
<PAGE> 66
in which the fifth anniversary of the contract owner's death occurs, unless:
(a) the contract owner names his or her surviving spouse as the
beneficiary and such spouse chooses to:
(1) treat the contract as an Individual Retirement Annuity, SEP IRA
or Simple IRA established for his or her benefit; or
(2) receive distribution of the contract in substantially equal
payments over his or her life (or a period not longer than his or
her life expectancy) and beginning no later than December 31 of
the year in which the contract owner would have reached age 70
1/2; or
(b) the contract owner names a beneficiary other than his or her surviving
spouse and such beneficiary elects to receive a distribution of the
contract in substantially equal payments over his or her life (or a
period not longer than his or her life expectancy) beginning no later
than December 31 of the year following the year of the contract
owner's death.
Required distributions do not have to be withdrawn from this contract if they
are being withdrawn from another Individual Retirement Annuity, SEP IRA or
Simple IRA of the contract owner.
If the contract owner dies after distributions have begun, distributions must
continue at least as rapidly as under the schedule being used before the
contract owner's death. However, a surviving spouse who is the beneficiary under
the annuity payment option may treat the contract as his or her own, in the same
manner as is described in section (a)(1) of this provision.
If distribution requirements are not met, a penalty tax of 50% is levied on the
difference between the amount that should have been distributed for that year
and the amount that actually was distributed for that year.
A portion of each distribution will be included in the recipient's gross income
and taxed at ordinary income tax rates. The portion of a distribution which is
taxable is based on the ratio between the amount by which non-deductible
purchase payments exceed prior non taxable distributions and total account
balances at the time of the distribution. The owner of an Individual Retirement
Annuity, SEP IRA or Simple IRA must annually report the amount of non-deductible
purchase payments, the amount of any distribution, the amount by which non
deductible purchase payments for all years exceed non taxable distributions for
all years, and the total balance of all Individual Retirement Annuities, SEP IRA
or Simple IRA.
If the contract owner dies before the entire interest in the contract has been
distributed, the balance will also be included in his or her gross estate.
REQUIRED DISTRIBUTIONS FOR ROTH IRAS
The rules for Roth IRAs do not require distributions to begin during the
contract owner's lifetime.
When the contract owner dies, the interest in the Roth IRA must be distributed
by December 31 of the calendar year in which the fifth anniversary of his or her
death occurs, unless:
(a) the contract owner names his or her surviving spouse as the
beneficiary and the spouse chooses to:
(1) treat the contract as a Roth IRA established for his or her
benefit; or
(2) receive distribution of the contract in substantially equal
payments over his or her life (or a period not longer than his or
her life expectancy) and beginning no later than December 31 of
the year following the year in which the contract owner would
have reached age 70 1/2; or
(b) the contract owner names a beneficiary other than his or her surviving
spouse and the beneficiary chooses to receive distribution of the
contract in
50
<PAGE> 67
substantially equal payments over his or her life (or a period not
longer than his or her life expectancy) beginning no later than
December 31 of the year following the year in which the contract owner
dies.
Distributions from Roth IRAs may be either taxable or nontaxable, depending upon
whether they are "qualified distributions" or "non-qualified distributions" (see
"Federal Tax Considerations").
FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The tax consequences of purchasing a contract described in this prospectus will
depend on:
- the type of contract purchased;
- the purposes for which the contract is purchased; and
- the personal circumstances of individual investors having interests in the
contracts.
See "Synopsis of the Contracts" for a brief description of the various types of
contracts and the different purposes for which the contracts may be purchased.
Existing tax rules are subject to change, and may affect individuals differently
depending on their situation. Nationwide does not guarantee the tax status of
any contracts or any transactions involving the contracts.
If the contract is purchased as an investment of certain retirement plans (such
as qualified retirement plans, Individual Retirement Accounts, and custodial
accounts as described in Sections 401, 408(a), and 403(b)(7) of the Internal
Revenue Code), tax advantages enjoyed by the contract owner and/or annuitant may
relate to participation in the plan rather than ownership of the annuity
contract. Such plans are permitted to purchase investments other than annuities
and retain tax-deferred status.
The following is a brief summary of some of the federal income tax
considerations related to the contracts. In addition to the federal income tax,
distributions from annuity contracts may be subject to state and local income
taxes. The tax rules across all states and localities are not uniform and
therefore will not be discussed in this prospectus. Tax rules that may apply to
contracts issued in U.S. territories such as Puerto Rico and Guam are also not
discussed. Nothing in this prospectus should be considered to be tax advice.
Contract owners and prospective contract owners are encouraged to consult a
financial consultant, tax advisor or legal counsel to discuss the taxation and
use of the contracts.
The Internal Revenue Code sets forth different income tax rules for the
following types of annuity contracts:
- Individual Retirement Annuities;
- SEP IRAs;
- Simple IRAs;
- Roth IRAs;
- Tax Sheltered Annuities; and
- "Non-Qualified Annuities."
Individual Retirement Annuities, SEP IRAs and Simple IRAs
Distributions from Individual Retirement Annuities, SEP IRAs and Simple IRAs are
generally taxed when received. If any of the amount contributed to the IRA was
nondeductible for federal income tax purposes, then a portion of each
distribution is excludable from income.
If distributions of income from an IRA are made prior to the date that the owner
attains the age of 59 1/2 years, the income is subject to both the regular
income tax and an additional penalty tax of 10%. (For Simple IRAs, the 10%
penalty is increased to 25% if the distribution is made during the 2 year period
beginning on the date that the individual first participated in the Simple IRA.)
The penalty tax can be avoided if the distribution is:
- made to a beneficiary on or after the death of the owner;
51
<PAGE> 68
- attributable to the owner becoming disabled (as defined in the Internal
Revenue Code);
- part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments made not less
frequently than annually made for the life (or life expectancy) of the
owner, or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the owner and his
or her designated beneficiary;
- used for qualified higher education expenses; or
- used for expenses attributable to the purchase of a home for a qualified
first-time buyer.
Roth IRAs
Distributions of earnings from Roth IRAs are taxable or non-taxable depending
upon whether they are "qualified distributions" or "nonqualified distributions."
A "qualified distribution" is one that satisfies the five-year rule and meets
one of the following requirements:
- it is made on or after the date on which the contract owner attains age
59 1/2;
- it is made to a beneficiary (or the contract owner's estate) on or after
the death of the contract owner;
- it is attributable to the contract owner's disability; or
- it is used for expenses attributable to the purchase of a home for a
qualified first-time buyer.
The five year rule generally is satisfied if the distribution is not made within
the five taxable year period beginning with the first taxable year in which a
contribution is made to any Roth IRA established for the owner.
A qualified distribution is not included in gross income for federal income tax
purposes.
A non-qualified distribution is not includible in gross income to the extent
that the distribution, when added to all previous distributions, does not exceed
that total amount of contributions made to the Roth IRA. Any non-qualified
distribution in excess of the aggregate amount of contributions will be included
in the contract owner's gross income in the year that is distributed to the
contract owner.
Special rules apply for Roth IRAs that have proceeds received from an IRA prior
to January 1, 1999 if the owner elected the special 4-year income averaging
provisions that were in effect for 1998.
If non-qualified distributions of income from a Roth IRA are made prior to the
date that the owner attains the age of 59 1/2 years, the income is subject to
both the regular income tax and an additional penalty tax of 10%. The penalty
tax can be avoided if the distribution is:
- made to a beneficiary on or after the death of the owner;
- attributable to the owner becoming disabled as defined in the Internal
Revenue Code;
- part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments made not less
frequently than annually made for the life (or life expectancy) of the
owner, or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the owner and his
or her designated beneficiary;
- for qualified higher education expenses; or
- used for expenses attributable to the purchase of a home for a qualified
first-time buyer.
If the contract owner dies before the contract is completely distributed, the
balance may be included in the contract owner's gross estate for tax purposes.
Tax Sheltered Annuities
Distributions from Tax Sheltered Annuities are generally taxed when received. A
portion of each distribution is excludable from income based on a formula
established pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code. The formula excludes from
income the amount invested in the contract divided by the number of anticipated
payments until the full investment in the contract is recovered. Thereafter all
distributions are fully taxable.
52
<PAGE> 69
If a distribution of income is made from a Tax Sheltered Annuity prior to the
date that the owner attains the age of 59 1/2 years, the income is subject to
both the regular income tax and an additional penalty tax of 10%. The penalty
tax can be avoided if the distribution is:
- made to a beneficiary on or after the death of the owner;
- attributable to the owner becoming disabled as defined in the Internal
Revenue Code;
- part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments made not less
frequently than annually made for the life (or life expectancy) of the
owner, or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the owner and his
or her designated beneficiary;
- for qualified higher education expenses;
- used for expenses attributable to the purchase of a home for a qualified
first-time buyer; or
- made to the owner after separation from service with his or her employer
after age 55.
Non-Qualified Contracts - Natural Persons as Contract Owners
Generally, the income earned inside a Non-Qualified Annuity Contract that is
owned by a natural person is not taxable until it is distributed from the
contract.
Distributions before the annuitization date are taxable to the contract owner to
the extent that the cash value of the contract exceeds the contract owner's
investment at the time of the distribution. Distributions, for this purpose,
include partial surrenders, any portion of the contract that is assigned or
pledged; or any portion of the contract that is transferred by gift. For these
purposes, a transfer by gift may occur upon annuitization if the contract owner
and the annuitant are not the same individual.
With respect to annuity distributions on or after the annuitization date, a
portion of each annuity payment is excludable from taxable income. The amount
excludable is based on the ratio between the contract owner's investment in the
contract and the expected return on the contract. Once the entire investment in
the contract is recovered, all distributions are fully includable in income. The
maximum amount excludable from income is the investment in the contract. If the
annuitant dies before the entire investment in the contract has been excluded
from income, and as a result of the annuitant's death no more payments are due
under the contract, then the unrecovered investment in the contract may be
deducted on his or her final tax return.
In determining the taxable amount of a distribution, all annuity contracts
issued after October 21, 1988 by the same company to the same contract owner
during the same calendar year will be treated as one annuity contract.
A special rule applies to distributions from contracts that have investments
that were made prior to August 14, 1982. For those contracts, distributions that
are made prior to the annuitization date are treated first as a recovery of the
investment in the contract as of that date. A distribution in excess of the
amount of the investment in the contract as of August 14, 1982, will be treated
as taxable income.
The Internal Revenue Code imposes a penalty tax if a distribution is made before
the contract owner reaches age 59 1/2. The amount of the penalty is 10% of the
portion of any distribution that is includible in gross income. The penalty tax
does not apply if the distribution is:
- the result of a contract owner's death;
- the result of a contract owner's disability, as defined in the Internal
Revenue Code;
- one of a series of substantially equal periodic payments made over the life
(or life expectancy) of the contract owner or the joint lives (or joint
life expectancies) of the contract owner and the beneficiary selected by
the contract owner to receive payment under the annuity payment option
selected by the contract owner; or
- is allocable to an investment in the contract before August 14, 1982.
53
<PAGE> 70
Non-Qualified Contracts - Non-Natural Persons as Contract Owners
The previous discussion related to the taxation of Non-Qualified Contracts owned
by individuals. Different rules (the so-called "non-natural persons" rules)
apply if the contract owner is not a natural person.
Generally, contracts owned by corporations, partnerships, trusts, and similar
entities are not treated as annuity contracts under the Internal Revenue Code.
Therefore, income earned under a Non-Qualified Contract that is owned by a
non-natural person is taxed as ordinary income during the taxable year that it
is earned. Taxation is not deferred, even if the income is not distributed out
of the contract. The income is taxable as ordinary income, not capital gain.
The non-natural persons rules do not apply to all entity-owned contracts. A
contract that is owned by a non-natural person as an agent of an individual is
treated as owned by the individual. This would cause the contract to be treated
as an annuity under the Internal Revenue Code, allowing tax deferral. However,
this exception does not apply when the non-natural person is an employer that
holds the contract under a non-qualified deferred compensation arrangement for
one or more employees.
The non-natural persons rules also do not apply to contracts that are:
- acquired by the estate of a decedent by reason of the death of the
decedent;
- issued in connection with certain qualified retirement plans and individual
retirement plans;
- purchased by an employer upon the termination of certain qualified
retirement plans.
WITHHOLDING
Pre-death distributions from the contracts are subject to federal income tax.
Nationwide will withhold the tax from the distributions unless the contract
owner requests otherwise. If the distribution is from a Tax Sheltered Annuity,
it will be subject to mandatory 20% withholding that cannot be waived, unless:
- the distribution is made directly to another Tax Sheltered Annuity or IRA;
or
- the distribution satisfies the minimum distribution requirements imposed by
the Internal Revenue Code.
In addition, contract owners may not waive withholding if the distribution is
subject to mandatory back-up withholding (if no taxpayer identification number
is given or if the Internal Revenue Service notifies Nationwide that mandatory
back-up withholding is required). Mandatory back-up withholding rates are 31% of
income that is distributed.
NON-RESIDENT ALIENS
Generally, a pre-death distribution from a contract to a non-resident alien is
subject to federal income tax at a rate of 30% of the amount of income that is
distributed. Nationwide is required to withhold this amount and send it to the
Internal Revenue Service. Some distributions to non-resident aliens may be
subject to a lower (or no) tax if a treaty applies. In order to obtain the
benefits of such a treaty, the non-resident alien must:
(1) provide Nationwide with proof of residency and citizenship (in
accordance with Internal Revenue Service requirements); and
(2) provide Nationwide with an individual taxpayer identification number.
If the non-resident alien does not meet the above conditions, Nationwide will
withhold 30% of income from the distribution.
Another way to avoid the 30% withholding is for the non-resident alien to
provide Nationwide with sufficient evidence that:
(1) the distribution is connected to the non-resident alien's conduct of
business in the United States; and
(2) the distribution is includible in the non-resident alien's gross
income for United States federal income tax purposes.
54
<PAGE> 71
Note that these distributions may be subject to back-up withholding, currently
31%, if a correct taxpayer identification number is not provided.
FEDERAL ESTATE, GIFT, AND GENERATION SKIPPING TRANSFER TAXES
The following transfers may be considered a gift for federal gift tax purposes:
- a transfer of the contract from one contract owner to another; or
- a distribution to someone other than a contract owner.
Upon the contract owner's death, the value of the contract may subject to estate
taxes, even if all or a portion of the value is also subject to federal income
taxes.
Section 2612 of the Internal Revenue Code may require Nationwide to determine
whether a death benefit or other distribution is a "direct skip" and the amount
of the resulting generation skipping transfer tax, if any. A direct skip is when
property is transferred to, or a death benefit or other distribution is made to:
(a) an individual who is two or more generations younger than the contract
owner; or
(b) certain trusts, as described in Section 2613 of the Internal Revenue
Code (generally, trusts that have no beneficiaries who are not 2 or
more generations younger than the contract owner).
If the contract owner is not an individual, then for this purpose ONLY,
"contract owner" refers to any person:
- who would be required to include the contract, death benefit,
distribution, or other payment in his or her federal gross estate at
his or her death; or
- who is required to report the transfer of the contract, death benefit,
distribution, or other payment for federal gift tax purposes.
If a transfer is a direct skip, Nationwide will deduct the amount of the
transfer tax from the death benefit, distribution or other payment, and remit it
directly to the Internal Revenue Service.
CHARGE FOR TAX
Nationwide is not required to maintain a capital gain reserve liability on
Non-Qualified Contracts. If tax laws change requiring a reserve, Nationwide may
implement and adjust a tax charge.
DIVERSIFICATION
Internal Revenue Code Section 817(h) contains rules on diversification
requirements for variable annuity contracts. A variable annuity contract that
does not meet these diversification requirements will not be treated as an
annuity, unless:
- the failure to diversify was accidental;
- the failure is corrected; and
- a fine is paid to the Internal Revenue Service.
The amount of the fine will be the amount of tax that would have been paid by
the contract owner if the income, for the period the contract was not
diversified, had been received by the contract owner.
If the violation is not corrected, the contract owner will be considered the
owner of the underlying securities and will be taxed on the earnings of his or
her contract. Nationwide believes that the investments underlying this contract
meet these diversification requirements.
TAX CHANGES
The foregoing tax information is based on Nationwide's understanding of federal
tax laws. It is NOT intended as tax advice. All information is subject to change
without notice. For more details, contact your personal tax and/or financial
advisor.
STATEMENTS AND REPORTS
Nationwide will mail contract owners statements and reports. Therefore, contract
55
<PAGE> 72
owners should promptly notify Nationwide of any address change.
These mailings will contain:
- statements showing the contract's quarterly activity;
- confirmation statements showing transactions that affect the
contract's value. Confirmation statements will not be sent for
recurring transactions (i.e., Dollar Cost Averaging or salary
reduction programs). Instead, confirmation of recurring transactions
will appear in the contract's quarterly statements;
- semi-annual reports as of June 30 containing financial statements for
the variable account; and
- annual reports as of December 31 containing financial statements for
the variable account.
Contract owners should review statements and confirmations carefully. All errors
or corrections must be reported to Nationwide immediately to assure proper
crediting to the contract. Unless Nationwide is notified within 30 days of
receipt of the statement, Nationwide will assume statements and confirmation
statements are correct.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Nationwide is a party to litigation and arbitration proceedings in the ordinary
course of its business, none of which is expected to have a material adverse
effect on Nationwide.
In recent years, life insurance companies have been named as defendants in
lawsuits, including class action lawsuits, relating to life insurance and
annuity pricing and sales practices. A number of these lawsuits have resulted in
substantial jury awards or settlements.
In November 1997, two plaintiffs, one who was the owner of a variable life
insurance contract and the other who was the owner of a variable annuity
contract, commenced a lawsuit in a federal court in Texas against Nationwide
Life Insurance Company and the American Century group of defendants (Robert
Young and David D. Distad v. Nationwide Life Insurance Company et al.). In this
lawsuit, plaintiffs sought to represent a class of variable life insurance
contract owners and variable annuity contract owners whom they claim were
allegedly misled when purchasing these variable contracts into believing that
the performance of their underlying mutual fund option managed by American
Century, whose shares may only be purchased by insurance companies, would track
the performance of a mutual fund, also managed by American Century, whose shares
are publicly traded. The amended complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and
punitive damages. On April 27, 1998, the District Court denied, in part, and
granted, in part, motions to dismiss the complaint filed by Nationwide and
American Century. The remaining claims against Nationwide allege securities
fraud, common law fraud, civil conspiracy, and breach of contract. The District
Court, on December 2, 1998, issued an order denying plaintiffs' motion for class
certification and the appeals court declined to review the order denying class
certification upon interlocutory appeal. On June 11, 1999, the District Court
denied the plaintiffs' motion to amend their complaint and reconsider class
certification. In January 2000, Nationwide and American Century settled this
lawsuit now limited to the claims of the two named plaintiffs. On February 9,
2000, the court dismissed this lawsuit with prejudice.
On October 29, 1998, Nationwide was named in a lawsuit filed in Ohio state court
related to the sale of deferred annuity products for use as investments in
tax-deferred contributory retirement plans (Mercedes Castillo v. Nationwide
Financial Services, Inc., Nationwide Life Insurance Company and Nationwide Life
and Annuity Insurance Company). On May 3, 1999, the complaint was amended to,
among other things, add Marcus Shore as a second plaintiff. The amended
complaint is brought as a class action on behalf of all persons who purchased
individual deferred annuity contracts or participated in group annuity contracts
sold
56
<PAGE> 73
by Nationwide and the other named Nationwide affiliates which were used to fund
certain tax-deferred retirement plans. The amended complaint seeks unspecified
compensatory and punitive damages. No class has been certified. On June 11,
1999, Nationwide and the other named defendants filed a motion to dismiss the
amended complaint. On March 8, 2000, the court denied the motion to dismiss the
amended complaint filed by Nationwide and other named defendants. Nationwide
intends to defend this lawsuit vigorously.
There can be no assurance that any litigation relating to pricing or sales
practices will not have a material adverse effect on Nationwide in the future.
The general distributor, NISC, is not engaged in any litigation of any material
nature.
ADVERTISING AND SUB-ACCOUNT PERFORMANCE SUMMARY
ADVERTISING
A "yield" and "effective yield" may be advertised for the NSAT Money Market
Fund. "Yield" is a measure of the net dividend and interest income earned over a
specific seven-day period (which period will be stated in the advertisement)
expressed as a percentage of the offering price of the NSAT Money Market Fund's
units. Yield is an annualized figure, which means that it is assumed that the
NSAT Money Market Fund generates the same level of net income over a 52-week
period. The "effective yield" is calculated similarly but includes the effect of
assumed compounding, calculated under rules prescribed by the SEC. The effective
yield will be slightly higher than yield due to this compounding effect.
Nationwide may advertise the performance of a sub-account in relation to the
performance of other variable annuity sub-accounts, underlying mutual fund
options with similar or different objectives, or the investment industry as a
whole. Other investments to which the sub-accounts may be compared include, but
are not limited to:
- precious metals;
- real estate;
- stocks and bonds;
- closed-end funds;
- bank money market deposit accounts and passbook savings;
- CDs; and
- the Consumer Price Index.
Market Indexes
The sub-accounts will be compared to certain market indexes, such as:
- S&P 500;
- Shearson/Lehman Intermediate Government/Corporate Bond Index;
- Shearson/Lehman Long-Term Government/Corporate Bond Index;
- Donoghue Money Fund Average;
- U.S. Treasury Note Index;
- Bank Rate Monitor National Index of 2 1/2 Year CD Rates; and
- Dow Jones Industrial Average.
Tracking & Rating Services; Publications
Nationwide's rankings and ratings are sometimes published by other services,
such as:
- Lipper Analytical Services, Inc.;
- CDA/Wiesenberger;
- Morningstar;
- Donoghue's;
- magazines such as:
Money;
Forbes;
Kiplinger's Personal Finance Magazine;
Financial World;
Consumer Reports;
Business Week;
Time;
Newsweek;
National Underwriter; and
News and World Report;
- LIMRA;
- Value;
- Best's Agent Guide;
- Western Annuity Guide;
- Comparative Annuity Reports;
- Wall Street Journal;
- Barron's;
57
<PAGE> 74
- Investor's Daily;
- Standard & Poor's Outlook; and
- Variable Annuity Research & Data Service (The VARDS Report).
These rating services and publications rank the underlying mutual funds'
performance against other funds. These rankings may or may not include the
effects of sales charges or other fees.
Financial Rating Services
Nationwide is also ranked and rated by independent financial rating services,
among which are Moody's, Standard & Poor's and A.M. Best Company. Nationwide may
advertise these ratings. These ratings reflect Nationwide's financial strength
or claims-paying ability. The ratings are not intended to reflect the investment
experience or financial strength of the variable account.
Some Nationwide advertisements and endorsements may include lists of
organizations, individuals or other parties that recommend Nationwide or the
contract. Furthermore, Nationwide may occasionally advertise comparisons of
currently taxable and tax deferred investment programs, based on selected tax
brackets, or discussions of alternative investment vehicles and general economic
conditions.
Historical Performance of the Sub-Accounts
Nationwide will advertise historical performance of the sub-accounts. Nationwide
may advertise for the sub-account's standardized average annual total return
("standardized return") calculated in a manner prescribed by the SEC, and
non-standardized average annual total return ("non-standardized return").
Standardized return shows the percentage rate of return of a hypothetical
initial investment of $1,000 for the most recent one, five and ten year periods
(or for a period covering the time the underlying mutual fund has been available
in the variable account if it has not been available for one of the prescribed
periods). This calculation reflects the standard 7 year CDSC schedule and the
charges that could be assessed to a contract if the maximum rider options for a
contract issued as a Tax Sheltered Annuity are chosen (2.70%). Standardized
return does not reflect the deduction of state premium taxes, which may be
imposed by certain states.
Non-standardized return is calculated similarly to standardized return except
non-standardized return assumes an initial investment of $25,000, with variable
account charges of 0.95%. No CDSC is reflected. An assumed initial investment of
$25,000 is used because that amount more accurately reflects the average
contract size.
Both methods of calculation reflect total return for the most recent one, five
and ten year periods (or for a period covering the time the underlying mutual
fund has been in existence). For those underlying mutual funds which have not
been available for one of the prescribed periods, the nonstandardized total
return illustrations will show the investment performance the underlying mutual
funds would have achieved had they been available in the variable account for
one of the periods. If the underlying mutual fund has been available in the
variable account for less than one year (or if the underlying mutual fund has
been effective for less than one year) standardized and non-standardized
performance is not annualized.
The standardized average annual total return and nonstandardized total return
quotations are calculated using data for the period ended December 31, 1999.
However, Nationwide generally provides performance information more frequently.
Information relating to performance of the sub-accounts is based on historical
earnings and does not represent or guarantee future results.

APPENDIX A: OBJECTIVES FOR UNDERLYING MUTUAL FUNDS
The underlying mutual funds listed below are designed primarily as investments
for variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies issued by
insurance companies.
There is no guarantee that the investment objectives will be met.
AMERICAN CENTURY VARIABLE PORTFOLIOS, INC., A MEMBER OF THE AMERICAN CENTURY(SM)
FAMILY OF INVESTMENTS
American Century Variable Portfolios, Inc. was organized as a Maryland
corporation in 1987. It is a diversified, open-end investment management company
that offers its shares only as investment vehicles for variable annuity and
variable life insurance products of insurance companies. American Century
Variable Portfolios, Inc. is managed by American Century Investment Management,
Inc.
AMERICAN CENTURY VP INCOME & GROWTH
Investment Objective: Dividend growth, current income and capital
appreciation. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by
investing in common stocks. The investment manager constructs the portfolio
to match the risk characteristics of the S&P 500 Stock Index and then
optimizes each portfolio to achieve the desired balance of risk and return
potential. This includes targeting a dividend yield that exceeds that of
the S&P 500. Such a management technique known as "portfolio optimization"
may cause the Fund to be more heavily invested in some industries than in
others. However, the Fund may not invest more than 25% of its total assets
in companies whose principal business activities are in the same industry.
AMERICAN CENTURY VP INTERNATIONAL
Investment Objective: To seek capital growth. The Fund will seek to achieve
its investment objective by investing primarily in securities of foreign
companies that meet certain fundamental and technical standards of
selection and, in the opinion of the investment manager, have potential for
appreciation. Under normal conditions, the Fund will invest at least 65% of
its assets in common stocks or other equity securities of issuers from at
least three countries outside the United States. While securities of United
States issuers may be included in the portfolio from time to time, it is
the primary intent of the manager to diversify investments across a broad
range of foreign issuers. Although the primary investment of the Fund will
be common stocks (defined to include depository receipts for common stock
and other equity equivalents), the Fund may also invest in other types of
securities consistent with the Fund's objective. When the manager believes
that the total capital growth potential of other securities equals or
exceeds the potential return of common stocks, the Fund may invest up to
35% of its assets in such other securities. There can be no assurance that
the Fund will achieve its objectives.
AMERICAN CENTURY VP VALUE
Investment Objective: The investment objective of the Fund is long-term
capital growth; income is a secondary objective. The equity securities in
which the Fund will invest will be primarily securities of well-established
companies with intermediate-to-large market capitalizations that are
believed by management to be undervalued at the time of purchase. Under
normal market conditions, the Fund expects to invest at least 80% of the
value of its total asset in equity securities, including common and
preferred stock, convertible preferred stock and convertible debt
obligations.
DREYFUS INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS
Dreyfus Investment Portfolios (the "Fund") is an open-end, management investment
company known as a mutual fund. Shares are offered only to variable annuity and
variable life insurance separate accounts established by insurance companies to

Corporation serves as the Fund's investment adviser.
EUROPEAN EQUITY PORTFOLIO
Investment Objective: The Portfolio seeks long-term capital growth. To
pursue this goal, the Portfolio generally invests at least 80% of its total
assets in stocks included within the universe of the 300 largest European
companies. The Portfolio may invest up to 10% of its total assets in the
stocks of non-European companies. The Portfolio's stock investments may
include common stocks, preferred stocks and convertible securities.
DREYFUS STOCK INDEX FUND, INC.
The Dreyfus Stock Index Fund, Inc. is an open-end, non-diversified, management
investment company incorporated under Maryland law on January 24, 1989 and
commenced operations on September 29, 1989. The Fund offers its shares only as
investment vehicles for variable annuity and variable life insurance products of
insurance companies. The Dreyfus Corporation ("Dreyfus") serves as the Fund's
manager, while Mellon Equity Associates, an affiliate of Dreyfus, serves as the
Fund's index manager. Dreyfus is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mellon Bank, N.A.,
which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mellon Bank Corporation.
Investment Objective: To provide investment results that correspond to the
price and yield performance of publicly traded common stocks in the
aggregate, as represented by the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock
Price Index. The Fund is neither sponsored by nor affiliated with Standard
& Poor's Corporation.
DREYFUS VARIABLE INVESTMENT FUND

It was organized as an unincorporated business trust under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts on October 29, 1986 and commenced operations on
August 31, 1990. The Fund offers its shares only as investment vehicles for
variable annuity and variable life insurance products of insurance companies.
Dreyfus serves as the Fund's manager. Fayez Sarofim & Company serves as the
sub-adviser and provides day-to-day management of the Portfolio.
APPRECIATION PORTFOLIO (FORMERLY, CAPITAL APPRECIATION PORTFOLIO)
Investment Objective: The Portfolio's primary investment objective is to
provide long-term capital growth consistent with the preservation of
capital; current income is a secondary investment objective. This Portfolio
invests primarily in the common stocks of domestic and foreign issuers.
THE DREYFUS SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE GROWTH FUND, INC.
The Dreyfus Socially Responsible Growth Fund, Inc. is an open-end, diversified,
management investment company incorporated under Maryland law on July 20, 1992
and commenced operations on October 7, 1993. The Fund offers its share only as
investment vehicles for variable annuity and variable life insurance products of
insurance companies. Dreyfus serves as the Fund's investment adviser. NCM
Capital Management Group, Inc. serves as the Fund's sub-investment adviser and
provides day-to-day management of the Fund's portfolio.
Investment Objective: Capital growth through equity investment in companies
that, in the opinion of the Fund's advisers, not only meet traditional
investment standards, but which also show evidence that they conduct their
business in a manner that contributes to the enhancement of the quality of
life in America. Current income is secondary to the primary goal.
EVERGREEN VARIABLE TRUST
The Evergreen Variable Trust ("Trust") is an open-end management investment
company commonly referred to as a Mutual Fund. The Trust is designed to provide

capital growth, income and diversification through its investment series (the

Investment Objectives: The Fund's investment objective is to seek long-term

Managers Strategy of First Union Bank's Evergreen Investment Management
division (EIM). EIM allocates the Fund's portfolio assets on an
approximately equal basis among a number of investment management
organizations, each of which employs a different style. EIM has ultimate
responsibility for the investment performance of the Fund. The style of
each investment management organization is described below. EIM will
continuously monitor the performance and investment styles of the Fund's
portfolio managers. There can be no assurance that the Fund's investment
objective will be achieved.
Evergreen Asset Management Corp. ("Evergreen") will invest it's segment of
the Fund's assets according to a value oriented strategy. Evergreen will
invest in equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies with market
capitalizations falling within the range of the Russell Midcap Growth Index
of the time of the Fund's investment between approximately $500 million and
$5 billion. Evergreen will invest in companies it believes the market has
temporarily undervalued in relation to such factors as the company's
assets, cash flow and earnings potential.
MFS Institutional Advisors, Inc. ("MFS") will invest its segment of the
portfolio according to its growth oriented investment strategy by primarily
investing in equity securities of companies with market capitalizations
falling within the range of the Russell Midcap Growth Index at the time of
the Fund's investment. Such companies generally would be expected to show
earnings growth over time that is well above the growth rate of the overall
economy and the rate of inflation, and would have the products, management
and market opportunities which are usually necessary to continue sustained
growth. MFS may invest up to 25% (and generally expects to invest between
1% and 10%) of its segment of the Fund's assets in foreign securities.
OppenheimerFunds, Inc. ("Oppenheimer") manages its segment of the portfolio
in accordance with a blended growth and value investment strategy.
Investments are primarily in equity securities of those companies with
market capitalizations over $5 billion; however, Oppenheimer may, when it
deems advisable, invest in the equity securities of mid-cap and small-cap
companies. In purchasing portfolio securities, Oppenheimer may invest
without limit in foreign securities and may, to a limited degree, invest in
non-convertible debt securities and preferred stocks which have the
potential for capital appreciation.
Putnam Investment Management, Inc. ("Putnam") invests its segment of the
portfolio primarily, in accordance with its growth oriented investment
strategy, in equity securities of U.S. and foreign issuers with market
capitalizations of $3 billion or more. Putnam may also purchase
non-convertible debt securities which offer the
67
<PAGE> 84
opportunity for capital appreciation. In the evaluation of a company, more
consideration is given to growth potential than to dividend income.
EVERGREEN VA OMEGA FUND

meet its objective by investing primarily in common stocks and securities
convertible into common stocks of U.S. companies across all market
capitalizations.

of common stocks of domestic companies. The Fund may purchase stocks
initial public offerings ("IPOs").
EVERGREEN VA STRATEGIC INCOME FUND
Investment Objective: Seeks high current income from interest on debt
securities and secondarily, considers potential for growth of capital in
selecting securities. The Fund seeks to meet its objective by allocating
its assets principally between domestic high yield, high risk bonds and
debt securities (which may be denominated in U.S. dollars or in non-U.S.
currencies) of foreign governments and foreign corporations. In addition,
the Fund will, from time to time, allocate a portion of its assets to U.S.
government securities, including zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities,
mortgage-backed securities and money market instruments. From time to time,
the Fund may invest 100% of its assets in U.S. or foreign securities. While
the Fund may invest in securities of any maturity, it is currently expected
that the Fund will not invest in securities with maturities of more than 30
years.

is to achieve a yield which exceeds the composite yield on the securities
comprising the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index.
68
<PAGE> 85
VIP GROWTH PORTFOLIO: SERVICE CLASS
Investment Objective: Capital appreciation. This Portfolio will invest in
the securities of both well-known and established companies, and smaller,
less well-known companies which may have a narrow product line or whose
securities are thinly traded. These latter securities will often involve
greater risk than may be found in the ordinary investment security. FMR's
analysis and expertise plays an integral role in the selection of
securities and, therefore, the performance of the Portfolio. Many
securities which FMR believes would have the greatest potential may be
regarded as speculative, and investment in the Portfolio may involve
greater risk than is inherent in other underlying mutual funds. It is also
important to point out that this Portfolio makes sense for you if you can
afford to ride out changes in the stock market because it invests primarily
in common stocks. FMR can also make temporary investments in securities
such as investment-grade bonds, high-quality preferred stocks and
short-term notes, for defensive purposes when it believes market conditions
warrant.
VIP HIGH INCOME PORTFOLIO: SERVICE CLASS
Investment Objective: High level of current income by investing primarily
in high-risk, lower-rated, high-yielding, fixed-income securities, while
also considering growth of capital. FMR will seek high current income
normally by investing the Portfolio's assets as follows:
- at least 65% in income-producing debt securities and preferred
stocks, including convertible securities
- up to 20% in common stocks and other equity securities when
consistent with the Portfolio's primary objective or acquired as
part of a unit combining fixed-income and equity securities
Higher yields are usually available on securities that are lower-rated or
that are unrated. Lower-rated securities are usually defined as Ba or lower
by Moody's Investor Service, Inc. ("Moody's"); BB or lower by Standard &
Poor's and may be deemed to be of a speculative nature. The Portfolio may
also purchase lower-quality bonds such as those rated Ca3 by Moody's or C-
by Standard & Poor's which provide poor protection for payment of principal
and interest (commonly referred to as "junk bonds"). For a further
discussion of lower-rated securities, please see the "Risks of Lower-Rated
Debt Securities" section of the Portfolio's prospectus.
VIP OVERSEAS PORTFOLIO: SERVICE CLASS

VIP II CONTRAFUND(R) PORTFOLIO: SERVICE CLASS
Investment Objective: To seek capital appreciation by investing primarily
in companies that FMR believes to be undervalued due to an overly
pessimistic appraisal by the public. This strategy can lead to investments
in domestic or foreign companies, small and large, many of which may not be
well known. The Portfolio primarily invests in common stock and securities
convertible into common stock, but it has the flexibility to invest in any
type of security that may produce capital appreciation.

its assets (marked to market), gross income or net profits from the
ownership, construction, management or sale of residential, commercial or
industrial real estate. Under normal market conditions, at least 65% of the
Fund's total assets will be invested in Real Estate Securities, primarily
equity securities of real estate investment trusts. The Portfolio may
invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities issued by foreign
issuers, some or all of which may also be Real Estate Securities.

GENERAL INFORMATION AND HISTORY
The Nationwide Variable Account-9 is a separate investment account of Nationwide
Life Insurance Company ("Nationwide"). All of Nationwide's common stock is owned
by Nationwide Financial Services, Inc. ("NFS"), a holding company. NFS has two
classes of common stock outstanding with different voting rights enabling
Nationwide Corporation (the holder of all of the outstanding Class B Common
Stock) to control NFS. Nationwide Corporation is a holding company, as well. All
of its common stock is held by Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company (95.24%) and
Nationwide Mutual Fire Insurance Company (4.76%), the ultimate controlling
persons of Nationwide group of companies. The Nationwide group of companies is
one of America's largest insurance and financial services family of companies,
with combined assets of over $120 billion as of December 31, 1999.
SERVICES
Nationwide, which has responsibility for administration of the contracts and the
variable account, maintains records of the name, address, taxpayer
identification number, and other pertinent information for each contract owner
and the number and type of contract issued to each contract owner and records
with respect to the contract value.
The custodian of the assets of the variable account is Nationwide. Nationwide
will maintain a record of all purchases and redemptions of shares of the
underlying mutual funds. Nationwide, or affiliates of Nationwide, may have
entered into agreements with either the investment adviser or distributor for
the underlying mutual funds. The agreements relate to administrative services
furnished by Nationwide or an affiliate of Nationwide and provide for an annual
fee based on the average aggregate net assets of the variable account (and other
separate accounts of Nationwide or life insurance company subsidiaries of
Nationwide) invested in particular underlying mutual funds. These fees in no way
affect the net asset value of the underlying mutual funds or fees paid by the
contract owner.

The audited financial statements have been included herein in reliance upon the
reports of KPMG LLP, independent certified public accountants, Two Nationwide
Plaza, Columbus, Ohio 43215, and upon the authority of said firm as experts in
accounting and auditing.
PURCHASE OF SECURITIES BEING OFFERED
The contracts will be sold by licensed insurance agents in the states where the
contracts may be lawfully sold. Such agents will be registered representatives
of broker-dealers registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 who are
members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD").
UNDERWRITERS
The contracts, which are offered continuously, are distributed by Nationwide
Investment Services Corporation ("NISC"), Two Nationwide Plaza, Columbus, Ohio
43215, a wholly owned subsidiary of Nationwide. During the fiscal years ended
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, no underwriting commissions were paid by
Nationwide to NISC.
CALCULATIONS OF PERFORMANCE
Any current yield quotations of the NSAT Money Market Fund, subject to Rule 482
of the Securities Act of 1933, will consist of a seven calendar day historical
yield, carried at least to the nearest hundredth of a percent. The yield will be
calculated by determining the net change, exclusive of capital changes, in the
value of a hypothetical pre-existing account having a balance of one
accumulation unit at the beginning of the base period, subtracting a
hypothetical charge reflecting deductions from contract owner accounts, and
dividing the net change in account value by the value of the account at the
beginning of the period to obtain a base period return, and multiplying the base
period return by (365/7) or (366/7) in a leap year. The NSAT Money Market Fund's
seven-day current unit value yield for the maximum number of options available
as of December 31, 1999 (2.65%) was 2.71%. The NSAT Money Market Fund's
effective yield is computed similarly, but includes the effect of assumed
compounding on an annualized basis of the current unit value yield quotations of
the NSAT Money Market Fund. The NSAT Money Market Fund's seven-day effective
yield for the maximum number of options available as of December 31, 1999
(2.65%) was 2.76%.
The NSAT Money Market Fund's yield and effective yield will fluctuate daily.
Actual yields will depend on factors such as the type of instruments in the
fund's portfolio, portfolio quality and average maturity, changes in interest
rates, and the fund's expenses. Although the NSAT Money Market Fund determines
its yield on the basis of a seven day period, it may use a different time period
on occasion. The yield quotes may reflect the expense limitation described
"Investment Manager and Other Services" in the NSAT Money Market Fund's
Statement of Additional Information. There is no assurance that the yields
quoted on any given occasion will remain in effect for any period of time and
there is no guarantee that the net asset values will remain constant. It should
be noted that a contract owner's investment in the NSAT Money Market Fund is not
guaranteed or insured. Yields of other money market funds may not be comparable
if a different base period or another method of calculation is used.
All performance advertising will include quotations of standardized average
annual total return, calculated in accordance with a standard method prescribed
by rules of the SEC. Standardized average annual return is found by taking a
hypothetical $1,000 investment in each of the sub-accounts' units on the first
day of the period at the offering price, which is the accumulation unit value
per unit ("initial investment") and computing the ending redeemable value
("redeemable value") of that investment at the end of the period. 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.

<PAGE> 276
Standardized average annual total return reflects the deduction of a the
standard 7 year CDSC schedule and the deduction of all charges that could be
made to a contract if all available options were chosen as of December 31, 1999
(2.70%), except for premium taxes, which may be imposed by certain states.
Nonstandardized total return may also be advertised, and is calculated in a
manner similar to standardized average annual total return except the
nonstandardized total return is based on a hypothetical initial investment of
$25,000 and the deduction of charges for the base contract (0.95%). An assumed
initial investment of $25,000 will be used because that figure more closely
approximates the size of a typical Contract than does the $1,000 figure used in
calculating the standardized average annual total return quotations.
The standardized average annual total return and nonstandardized average annual
total return quotations will be current to the last day of the calendar quarter
preceding the date on which an advertisement is submitted for publication. The
standardized average annual return will be based on rolling calendar quarters
and will cover periods of one, five, and ten years, or a period covering the
time the underlying mutual fund has been available in the variable account if
the underlying mutual fund has not been available for one of the prescribed
periods. Nonstandardized average annual total return will based on rolling
calendar quarters and will cover periods of one, five and ten years, or a period
covering the time the underlying mutual fund has been in existence. If the
underlying mutual fund has been available in the variable account for less than
one year (or if the underlying mutual fund has been effective for less than one
year), standardized and non-standardized performance is not annualized.
Quotations of average annual total return and total return are based upon
historical earnings and will fluctuate. Any quotation of performance, is not a
guarantee of future performance. Factors affecting a sub-account's performance
include general market conditions, operating expenses and investment management.
A contract owner's account when redeemed may be more or less than the original
cost.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
----------------------------
The Board of Directors of Nationwide Life Insurance Company and
Contract Owners of Nationwide Variable Account-9:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets, liabilities and
contract owners' equity of Nationwide Variable Account-9 (comprised of the
sub-accounts listed in note 1(b)) (collectively, "the Account") as of December
31, 1999, and the related statements of operations and changes in contract
owners' equity for each of the years in the two year period then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Account's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 audits 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. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 1999, by correspondence with
the transfer agents of the underlying mutual funds. 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 referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of the Account as of December
31, 1999, and the results of its operations and its changes in contract owners'
equity for each of the years in the two year period then ended in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

At December 31, 1999, contract owners have invested in all of the above
funds. The contract owners' equity is affected by the investment
results of each fund, equity transactions by contract owners and
certain contract expenses (see note 2).
The accompanying financial statements include only contract owners'
purchase payments pertaining to the variable portions of their
contracts and exclude any purchase payments for fixed dollar benefits,
the latter being included in the accounts of the Company.
A contract owner may choose from among a number of different underlying
mutual fund options. The underlying mutual fund options are not
available to the general public directly. The underlying mutual funds
are available as investment options in variable life insurance policies
or variable annuity contracts issued by life insurance companies or, in
some cases, through participation in certain qualified pension or
retirement plans.
Some of the underlying mutual funds have been established by investment
advisers which manage publicly traded mutual funds having similar names
and investment objectives. While some of the underlying mutual funds
may be similar to, and may in fact be modeled after, publicly traded
mutual funds, the underlying mutual funds are not otherwise directly
related to any publicly traded mutual fund. Consequently, the
investment performance of publicly traded mutual funds and any
corresponding underlying mutual funds may differ substantially.

<PAGE> 18
NATIONWIDE VARIABLE ACCOUNT-9
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED
(c) Security Valuation, Transactions and Related Investment Income
The market value of the underlying mutual funds is based on the closing
net asset value per share at December 31, 1999. The cost of investments
sold is determined on the specific identification basis. Investment
transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy
or sell is executed) and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date.
(d) Federal Income Taxes
Operations of the Account form a part of, and are taxed with,
operations of the Company which is taxed as a life insurance company
under the Internal Revenue Code.
The Company does not provide for income taxes within the Account. Taxes
are the responsibility of the contract owner upon termination or
withdrawal.
(e) Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles may require management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, if
any, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
(f) Calculation of Annuity Reserves
Annuity reserves are computed for contracts in the variable payout
stage according to industry standard mortality tables. The assumed
investment return is 3.5 percent unless the annuitant elects otherwise,
in which case the rate may vary from 3.5 percent to 7 percent, as
regulated by the laws of the respective states. The mortality risk is
fully borne by the Company and may result in additional amounts being
transferred into the Account by the Company to cover greater longevity
of annuitants than expected. Conversely, if reserves exceed amounts
required, transfers may be made to the Company.
(2) EXPENSES
(a) Sales Charges
The Company does not deduct a sales charge from purchase payments
received from the contract owners. However, if any part of the contract
value of such contracts is surrendered the Company will, with certain
exceptions, deduct from a contract owner's contract value a contingent
deferred sales charge.
On BOA Future, BOA V and BOA Choice contracts, the contingent deferred
sales charge will not exceed 7% of the lesser of purchase payments or
the amount surrendered, such charge declining to 0% after the purchase
payment has been held in the contract for 84 months. On IVA contracts,
the contingent deferred sales charge will not exceed 6% of the lesser
of purchase payments or the amount surrendered, such charge declining
to 0% after the purchase payment has been held in the contract for 84
months. No sales charges are deducted on BOA Exclusive II contracts.
No sales charges are deducted on redemptions used to purchase units in
the fixed investment options of the company.
<PAGE> 19
(b) Mortality and Expense Risk Charges
The Company deducts a mortality and expense risk charge assessed
through the daily unit value calculation as follows:
For the BOA Future contract, this charge ranges from an annual rate of
.95% to a maximum of 2.65% if all permissible rider options are
utilized. For this contract, the rider options include: (a) reduced
purchase payment; (b) five year CDSC; (c) CDSC waiver; (d) death
benefit; (e) guaranteed minimum income benefit and (f) purchase payment
bonus.
For the BOA Exclusive II contract, this charge ranges from an annual
rate of 1.20% to a maximum of 1.90% if all permissible rider options
are utilized. For this contract, the rider options include: (a) death
benefit and (b) guaranteed minimum income benefit.
For the BOA V contract, this charge ranges from an annual rate of 1.10%
to a maximum of 1.70% if all permissible rider options are utilized.
For this contract, the rider options include: (a) five year CDSC; (b)
CDSC waiver and (c) death benefit.
For the BOA Choice contract, this charge ranges from an annual rate of
1.20% to a maximum of 1.70% if all permissible rider options are
utilized. For this contract, the rider options include: (a) death
benefit and (b) guaranteed minimum income benefit.
For the IVA contract, this charge ranges from an annual rate of 1.25%
to a maximum of 1.45% if the death benefit option is utilized.
The rider options and permissible combinations and related charges for
the foregoing are described in the applicable product prospectus.
The following table provides mortality and expense risk charges by
asset fee rate for the year ended December 31, 1999:

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors
Nationwide Life Insurance Company:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Nationwide Life
Insurance Company and subsidiaries (collectively the Company), a wholly owned
subsidiary of Nationwide Financial Services, Inc., as of December 31, 1999 and
1998, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholder's equity
and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31,
1999. 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 statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Nationwide Life
Insurance Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the
three-year period ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
(a wholly owned subsidiary of Nationwide Financial Services, Inc.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997
(1) Organization and Description of Business
Nationwide Life Insurance Company (NLIC) is a leading provider of
long-term savings and retirement products in the United States and is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Nationwide Financial Services, Inc. (NFS).
The Company develops and sells a diverse range of products including
variable annuities, fixed annuities and life insurance as well as
investment management and administrative services. NLIC markets its
products through a broad network of distribution channels, including
independent broker/dealers, national and regional brokerage firms,
financial institutions, pension plan administrators, life insurance
specialists, Nationwide Retirement Solutions sales representatives, and
Nationwide agents.
Wholly owned subsidiaries of NLIC include Nationwide Life and Annuity
Insurance Company (NLAIC), Nationwide Advisory Services, Inc., and
Nationwide Investment Services Corporation. NLIC and its subsidiaries
are collectively referred to as "the Company."
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies followed by the Company that
materially affect financial reporting are summarized below. The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which differ
from statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by
regulatory authorities. Annual Statements for NLIC and NLAIC, filed
with the Department of Insurance of the State of Ohio (the Department),
are prepared on the basis of accounting practices prescribed or
permitted by the Department. Prescribed statutory accounting practices
include a variety of publications of the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners (NAIC), as well as state laws, regulations and
general administrative rules. Permitted statutory accounting practices
encompass all accounting practices not so prescribed. The Company has
no material permitted statutory accounting practices.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is
required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent
assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the
reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those
estimates.
The most significant estimates include those used in determining
deferred policy acquisition costs, valuation allowances for mortgage
loans on real estate and real estate investments and the liability for
future policy benefits and claims. Although some variability is
inherent in these estimates, management believes the amounts provided
are adequate.
(a) Consolidation Policy
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NLIC
and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated.
<PAGE> 7
NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
(a wholly owned subsidiary of
Nationwide Financial Services, Inc.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
(b) Valuation of Investments and Related Gains and Losses
The Company is required to classify its fixed maturity securities
and equity securities as either held-to-maturity,
available-for-sale or trading. Fixed maturity securities are
classified as held-to-maturity when the Company has the positive
intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity and are
stated at amortized cost. Fixed maturity securities not classified
as held-to-maturity and all equity securities are classified as
available-for-sale and are stated at fair value, with the
unrealized gains and losses, net of adjustments to deferred policy
acquisition costs and deferred federal income tax, reported as a
separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in
shareholder's equity. The adjustment to deferred policy
acquisition costs represents the change in amortization of
deferred policy acquisition costs that would have been required as
a charge or credit to operations had such unrealized amounts been
realized. The Company has no fixed maturity securities classified
as held-to-maturity or trading as of December 31, 1999 or 1998.
Mortgage loans on real estate are carried at the unpaid principal
balance less valuation allowances. The Company provides valuation
allowances for impairments of mortgage loans on real estate based
on a review by portfolio managers. The measurement of impaired
loans is based on the present value of expected future cash flows
discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, as a
practical expedient, at the fair value of the collateral, if the
loan is collateral dependent. Loans in foreclosure and loans
considered to be impaired are placed on non-accrual status.
Interest received on non-accrual status mortgage loans on real
estate is included in interest income in the period received.
Real estate is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and
valuation allowances. Other long-term investments are carried on
the equity basis, adjusted for valuation allowances. Impairment
losses are recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when
indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash
flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the
assets' carrying amount.
Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments are
determined on the basis of specific security identification.
Estimates for valuation allowances and other than temporary
declines are included in realized gains and losses on investments.
(c) Revenues and Benefits
Investment Products and Universal Life Insurance Products:
Investment products consist primarily of individual and group
variable and fixed deferred annuities. Universal life insurance
products include universal life insurance, variable universal life
insurance, corporate owned life insurance and other
interest-sensitive life insurance policies. Revenues for
investment products and universal life insurance products consist
of net investment income, asset fees, cost of insurance, policy
administration and surrender charges that have been earned and
assessed against policy account balances during the period. Policy
benefits and claims that are charged to expense include interest
credited to policy account balances and benefits and claims
incurred in the period in excess of related policy account
balances.
Traditional Life Insurance Products: Traditional life insurance
products include those products with fixed and guaranteed premiums
and benefits and consist primarily of whole life insurance,
limited-payment life insurance, term life insurance and certain
annuities with life contingencies. Premiums for traditional life
insurance products are recognized as revenue when due. Benefits
and expenses are associated with earned premiums so as to result
in recognition of profits over the life of the contract. This
association is accomplished by the provision for future policy
benefits and the deferral and amortization of policy acquisition
costs.

(a wholly owned subsidiary of
Nationwide Financial Services, Inc.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
(d) Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs
The costs of acquiring new business, principally commissions,
certain expenses of the policy issue and underwriting department
and certain variable sales expenses have been deferred. For
investment products and universal life insurance products,
deferred policy acquisition costs are being amortized with
interest over the lives of the policies in relation to the present
value of estimated future gross profits from projected interest
margins, asset fees, cost of insurance, policy administration and
surrender charges. For years in which gross profits are negative,
deferred policy acquisition costs are amortized based on the
present value of gross revenues. Deferred policy acquisition costs
are adjusted to reflect the impact of unrealized gains and losses
on fixed maturity securities available-for-sale as described in
note 2(b). For traditional life insurance products, these deferred
policy acquisition costs are predominantly being amortized with
interest over the premium paying period of the related policies in
proportion to the ratio of actual annual premium revenue to the
anticipated total premium revenue. Such anticipated premium
revenue was estimated using the same assumptions as were used for
computing liabilities for future policy benefits.
(e) Separate Accounts
Separate account assets and liabilities represent contractholders'
funds which have been segregated into accounts with specific
investment objectives. For all but $915.4 million of separate
account assets, the investment income and gains or losses of these
accounts accrue directly to the contractholders. The activity of
the separate accounts is not reflected in the consolidated
statements of income and cash flows except for the fees the
Company receives.
(f) Future Policy Benefits
Future policy benefits for investment products in the accumulation
phase, universal life insurance and variable universal life
insurance policies have been calculated based on participants'
contributions plus interest credited less applicable contract
charges. The average interest rate credited on investment product
policy reserves was 5.6%, 6.0% and 6.1% for the years ended
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
Future policy benefits for traditional life insurance policies
have been calculated by the net level premium method using
interest rates varying from 6.0% to 10.5% and estimates of
mortality, morbidity, investment yields and withdrawals which were
used or which were being experienced at the time the policies were
issued, rather than the assumptions prescribed by state regulatory
authorities.

NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
(g) Participating Business
Participating business represents approximately 29% in 1999 (40%
in 1998 and 50% in 1997) of the Company's life insurance in force,
69% in 1999 (74% in 1998 and 77% in 1997) of the number of life
insurance policies in force, and 13% in 1999 (14% in 1998 and 27%
in 1997) of life insurance statutory premiums. The provision for
policyholder dividends is based on current dividend scales and is
included in "Future policy benefits and claims" in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
(h) Federal Income Tax
The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return with
Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company (NMIC), the majority
shareholder of Nationwide Corp. The members of the consolidated
tax return group have a tax sharing arrangement which provides, in
effect, for each member to bear essentially the same federal
income tax liability as if separate tax returns were filed.
The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting
for income tax. Under this method, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit
carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. Under this method, the effect on deferred
tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized
in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce the
deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.
(i) Reinsurance Ceded
Reinsurance premiums ceded and reinsurance recoveries on benefits
and claims incurred are deducted from the respective income and
expense accounts. Assets and liabilities related to reinsurance
ceded are reported on a gross basis.
(j) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In March 1998, The American Institute of Certified Public
Accountant's Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued
Statement of Position (SOP) 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of
Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." The
SOP, which has been adopted prospectively as of January 1, 1999,
requires the capitalization of certain costs incurred in
connection with developing or obtaining internal use software.
Prior to the adoption of SOP 98-1, the Company expensed internal
use software related costs as incurred. The effect of adopting the
SOP was to increase net income for 1999 by $8.3 million.
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
issued Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" (FAS 133). FAS 133 establishes accounting
and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging
activities. Contracts that contain embedded derivatives, such as
certain investment and insurance contracts, are also addressed by
the Statement. FAS 133 requires that an entity recognize all
derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of
financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. In
July 1999 the FASB issued Statement No. 137 which delayed the
effective date of FAS 133 to fiscal years beginning after June 15,
2000. The Company plans to adopt this Statement in first quarter
2001 and is currently evaluating the impact on results of
operations and financial condition.
(k) Reclassification
Certain items in the 1998 and 1997 consolidated financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to the 1999
presentation.

Proceeds from the sale of securities available-for-sale during 1999,
1998 and 1997 were $513.1 million, $610.5 million and $574.5 million,
respectively. During 1999, gross gains of $10.4 million ($9.0 million
and $9.9 million in 1998 and 1997, respectively) and gross losses of
$28.0 million ($7.6 million and $18.0 million in 1998 and 1997,
respectively) were realized on those sales. In addition, gross gains of
$15.1 million and gross losses of $0.7 million were realized in 1997
when the Company paid a dividend to NFS, which then made an equivalent
dividend to Nationwide Corp., consisting of securities having an
aggregate fair value of $850.0 million.
The Company had $15.6 million of real estate investments at December
31, 1999 that were non-income producing the preceding twelve months.
During 1998 the Company had investments of $42.4 million that were
non-income producing, which consisted of $32.7 million of securities
available-for-sale and $9.7 million of real estate.
Real estate is presented at cost less accumulated depreciation of $24.8
million as of December 31, 1999 ($21.5 million as of December 31, 1998)
and valuation allowances of $5.5 million as of December 31, 1999 ($5.4
million as of December 31, 1998).
The recorded investment of mortgage loans on real estate considered to
be impaired was $3.7 million as of both December 31, 1999 and 1998. No
valuation allowance has been recorded for these loans as of December
31, 1999 or 1998. During 1999, the average recorded investment in
impaired mortgage loans on real estate was approximately $3.7 million
($9.1 million in 1998) and there was no interest income recognized on
those loans. Interest income recognized on impaired loans was $0.3
million in 1998 which is equal to interest income recognized using a
cash-basis method of income recognition.

(4) Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company uses derivative financial instruments, principally interest
rate swaps, interest rate futures contracts and foreign currency swaps,
to manage market risk exposures associated with changes in interest
rates and foreign currency exchange rates. Provided they meet specific
criteria, interest rate swaps and futures are considered hedges and are
accounted for under the accrual method and deferral method,
respectively. The Company has no significant derivative positions that
are not considered hedges.
<PAGE> 13
NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
(a wholly owned subsidiary of
Nationwide Financial Services, Inc.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
Interest rate swaps are primarily used to convert specific investment
securities and interest bearing policy liabilities from a fixed-rate to
a floating-rate basis. Amounts receivable or payable under these
agreements are recognized as an adjustment to net investment income or
interest credited to policyholder account balances consistent with the
nature of the hedged item. The changes in fair value of the interest
rate swap agreements are not recognized on the balance sheet, except
for interest rate swaps designated as hedges of fixed maturity
securities available-for-sale, for which changes in fair values are
reported in accumulated other comprehensive income.
Interest rate futures contracts are primarily used to hedge the risk of
adverse interest rate changes related to the Company's mortgage loan
commitments and anticipated purchases of fixed rate investments. Gains
and losses are deferred and, at the time of closing, reflected as an
adjustment to the carrying value of the related mortgage loans or
investments. The carrying value adjustments are amortized into net
investment income over the life of the related mortgage loans or
investments.
Foreign currency swaps are used to convert cash flows from specific
policy liabilities and investments denominated in foreign currencies
into U.S. dollars at specified exchange rates. Gains and losses on
foreign currency swaps are recorded in earnings based on the related
spot foreign exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. Gains
and losses on these contracts offset those recorded as a result of
translating the hedged foreign currency denominated liabilities and
investments to U.S. dollars.
The following table summarizes the notional amount of derivative
financial instruments classified as hedges outstanding as of December
31, 1999. Prior to 1999 the Company's activities in derivatives were
not significant.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management
considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion of the

deductible amounts can be offset by future taxable amounts or recovery
of federal income tax paid within the statutory carryback period. There
has been no change in the valuation allowance for the years ended
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997.
The Company's current federal income tax liability was $104.7 million
and $72.8 million as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

(7) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following disclosures summarize the carrying amount and estimated
fair value of the Company's financial instruments. Certain assets and
liabilities are specifically excluded from the disclosure requirements
of financial instruments. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts
presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.
<PAGE> 16
NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
(a wholly owned subsidiary of
Nationwide Financial Services, Inc.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
The fair value of a financial instrument is defined as the amount at
which the financial instrument could be exchanged in a current
transaction between willing parties. In cases where quoted market
prices are not available, fair value is to be based on estimates using
present value or other valuation techniques. Many of the Company's
assets and liabilities subject to the disclosure requirements are not
actively traded, requiring fair values to be estimated by management
using present value or other valuation techniques. These techniques are
significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount
rate and estimates of future cash flows. Although fair value estimates
are calculated using assumptions that management believes are
appropriate, changes in assumptions could cause these estimates to vary
materially. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be
substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases,
could not be realized in the immediate settlement of the instruments.
Although insurance contracts, other than policies such as annuities
that are classified as investment contracts, are specifically exempted
from the disclosure requirements, estimated fair value of policy
reserves on life insurance contracts is provided to make the fair value
disclosures more meaningful.
The tax ramifications of the related unrealized gains and losses can
have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been
considered in the estimates.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in
estimating its fair value disclosures:
Fixed maturity and equity securities: The fair value for fixed
maturity securities is based on quoted market prices, where
available. For fixed maturity securities not actively traded, fair
value is estimated using values obtained from independent pricing
services or, in the case of private placements, is estimated by
discounting expected future cash flows using a current market rate
applicable to the yield, credit quality and maturity of the
investments. The fair value for equity securities is based on
quoted market prices. The carrying amount and fair value for fixed
maturity and equity securities exclude the fair value of
derivatives contracts designated as hedges of fixed maturity and
equity securities.
Mortgage loans on real estate, net: The fair value for mortgage
loans on real estate is estimated using discounted cash flow
analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for similar
loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings. Loans with similar
characteristics are aggregated for purposes of the calculations.
Fair value for mortgage loans in default is the estimated fair
value of the underlying collateral.
Policy loans, short-term investments and cash: The carrying amount
reported in the consolidated balance sheets for these instruments
approximates their fair value.
Separate account assets and liabilities: The fair value of assets
held in separate accounts is based on quoted market prices. The
fair value of liabilities related to separate accounts is the
amount payable on demand, which is net of certain surrender
charges.
Investment contracts: The fair value for the Company's liabilities
under investment type contracts is disclosed using two methods.
For investment contracts without defined maturities, fair value is
the amount payable on demand. For investment contracts with known
or determined maturities, fair value is estimated using discounted
cash flow analysis. Interest rates used are similar to currently
offered contracts with maturities consistent with those remaining
for the contracts being valued.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
Policy reserves on life insurance contracts: Included are
disclosures for individual life insurance, universal life
insurance and supplementary contracts with life contingencies for
which the estimated fair value is the amount payable on demand.
Also included are disclosures for the Company's limited payment
policies, which the Company has used discounted cash flow analyses
similar to those used for investment contracts with known
maturities to estimate fair value.
Commitments to extend credit: Commitments to extend credit have
nominal fair value because of the short-term nature of such
commitments. See note 8.
Futures contracts: The fair value for futures contracts is based
on quoted market prices.
Interest rate and foreign currency swaps: The fair value for
interest rate and foreign currency swaps are calculated with
pricing models using current rate assumptions.
Carrying amount and estimated fair value of financial instruments
subject to disclosure requirements and policy reserves on life
insurance contracts were as follows as of December 31:

(8) Risk Disclosures
The following is a description of the most significant risks facing
life insurers and how the Company mitigates those risks:
Credit Risk: The risk that issuers of securities owned by the Company
or mortgagors on mortgage loans on real estate owned by the Company
will default or that other parties, including reinsurers, which owe the
Company money, will not pay. The Company minimizes this risk by
adhering to a conservative investment strategy, by maintaining
reinsurance and credit and collection policies and by providing for any
amounts deemed uncollectible.
<PAGE> 18
NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
(a wholly owned subsidiary of
Nationwide Financial Services, Inc.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
Interest Rate Risk: The risk that interest rates will change and cause
a decrease in the value of an insurer's investments. This change in
rates may cause certain interest-sensitive products to become
uncompetitive or may cause disintermediation. The Company mitigates
this risk by charging fees for non-conformance with certain policy
provisions, by offering products that transfer this risk to the
purchaser, and/or by attempting to match the maturity schedule of its
assets with the expected payouts of its liabilities. To the extent that
liabilities come due more quickly than assets mature, an insurer would
have to borrow funds or sell assets prior to maturity and potentially
recognize a gain or loss.
Legal/Regulatory Risk: The risk that changes in the legal or regulatory
environment in which an insurer operates will result in increased
competition, reduced demand for a company's products, or create
additional expenses not anticipated by the insurer in pricing its
products. The Company mitigates this risk by offering a wide range of
products and by operating throughout the United States, thus reducing
its exposure to any single product or jurisdiction, and also by
employing underwriting practices which identify and minimize the
adverse impact of this risk.
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk: The Company is a
party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the
normal course of business through management of its investment
portfolio. These financial instruments include commitments to extend
credit in the form of loans and derivative financial instruments. These
instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in
excess of amounts recognized on the consolidated balance sheets.
Commitments to fund fixed rate mortgage loans on real estate are
agreements to lend to a borrower, and are subject to conditions
established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed
expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment
of a deposit. Commitments extended by the Company are based on
management's case-by-case credit evaluation of the borrower and the
borrower's loan collateral. The underlying mortgage property represents
the collateral if the commitment is funded. The Company's policy for
new mortgage loans on real estate is to lend no more than 75% of
collateral value. Should the commitment be funded, the Company's
exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the borrower
is represented by the contractual amounts of these commitments less the
net realizable value of the collateral. The contractual amounts also
represent the cash requirements for all unfunded commitments.
Commitments on mortgage loans on real estate of $216.2 million
extending into 2000 were outstanding as of December 31, 1999. The
Company also had $28.0 million of commitments to purchase fixed
maturity securities outstanding as of December 31, 1999.
Notional amounts of derivative financial instruments, primarily
interest rate swaps, interest rate futures contracts and foreign
currency swaps, significantly exceed the credit risk associated with
these instruments and represent contractual balances on which
calculations of amounts to be exchanged are based. Credit exposure is
limited to the sum of the aggregate fair value of positions that have
become favorable to NLIC, including accrued interest receivable due
from counterparties. Potential credit losses are minimized through
careful evaluation of counterparty credit standing, selection of
counterparties from a limited group of high quality institutions,
collateral agreements and other contract provisions. At December 31,
1999, NLIC's credit risk from these derivative financial instruments
was $6.1 million.
Significant Concentrations of Credit Risk: The Company grants mainly
commercial mortgage loans on real estate to customers throughout the
United States. The Company has a diversified portfolio with no more
than 23% (22% in 1998) in any geographic area and no more than 2% (2%
in 1998) with any one borrower as of December 31, 1999. As of December
31, 1999, 39% (42% in 1998) of the remaining principal balance of the
Company's commercial mortgage loan portfolio financed retail
properties.

NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
Reinsurance: The Company has entered into a reinsurance contract to
cede a portion of its general account individual annuity business to
The Franklin Life Insurance Company (Franklin). Total recoveries due
from Franklin were $143.6 million and $187.9 million as of December 31,
1999 and 1998, respectively. The contract is immaterial to the
Company's results of operations. The ceding of risk does not discharge
the original insurer from its primary obligation to the policyholder.
Under the terms of the contract, Franklin has established a trust as
collateral for the recoveries. The trust assets are invested in
investment grade securities, the market value of which must at all
times be greater than or equal to 102% of the reinsured reserves.
(9) Pension Plan and Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions
The Company is a participant, together with other affiliated companies,
in a pension plan covering all employees who have completed at least
one year of service. The Company funds pension costs accrued for direct
employees plus an allocation of pension costs accrued for employees of
affiliates whose work efforts benefit the Company. Assets of the
Retirement Plan are invested in group annuity contracts of NLIC.
Pension cost (benefit) charged to operations by the Company during the
years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 were $(8.3) million, $2.0
million and $7.5 million, respectively. The Company has recorded a
prepaid pension asset of $13.3 million and $5.0 million as of December
31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
In addition to the defined benefit pension plan, the Company, together
with other affiliated companies, participates in life and health care
defined benefit plans for qualifying retirees. Postretirement life and
health care benefits are contributory and generally available to full
time employees who have attained age 55 and have accumulated 15 years
of service with the Company after reaching age 40. Postretirement
health care benefit contributions are adjusted annually and contain
cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance. In addition,
there are caps on the Company's portion of the per-participant cost of
the postretirement health care benefits. These caps can increase
annually, but not more than three percent. The Company's policy is to
fund the cost of health care benefits in amounts determined at the
discretion of management. Plan assets are invested primarily in group
annuity contracts of NLIC.
The Company elected to immediately recognize its estimated accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation (APBO), however, certain affiliated
companies elected to amortize their initial transition obligation over
periods ranging from 10 to 20 years.
The Company's accrued postretirement benefit expense as of December 31,
1999 and 1998 was $49.6 million and $40.1 million, respectively, and
the net periodic postretirement benefit cost (NPPBC) for 1999, 1998 and
1997 was $4.9 million, $4.1 million and $3.0 million, respectively.

(10) Shareholder's Equity, Regulatory Risk-Based Capital, Retained Earnings
and Dividend Restrictions
Ohio, NLIC's and NLAIC's state of domicile, imposes minimum risk-based
capital requirements that were developed by the NAIC. The formulas for
determining the amount of risk-based capital specify various weighting
factors that are applied to financial balances or various levels of
activity based on the perceived degree of risk. Regulatory compliance
is determined by a ratio of the company's regulatory total adjusted
capital, as defined by the NAIC, to its authorized control level
risk-based capital, as defined by the NAIC. Companies below specific
trigger points or ratios are classified within certain levels, each of
which requires specified corrective action. NLIC and NLAIC each exceed
the minimum risk-based capital requirements.
The statutory capital and surplus of NLIC as of December 31, 1999, 1998
and 1997 was $1.35 billion, $1.32 billion and $1.13 billion,
respectively. The statutory net income of NLIC for the years ended
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 was $276.2 million, $171.0 million and
$111.7 million, respectively.
The Company is limited in the amount of shareholder dividends it may
pay without prior approval by the Department. As of December 31, 1999
$40.2 million of dividends could be paid by NLIC without prior
approval.
<PAGE> 23
NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
(a wholly owned subsidiary of
Nationwide Financial Services, Inc.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
In addition, the payment of dividends by NLIC may also be subject to
restrictions set forth in the insurance laws of New York that limit the
amount of statutory profits on NLIC's participating policies (measured
before dividends to policyholders) that can inure to the benefit of the
Company and its shareholder.
The Company currently does not expect such regulatory requirements to
impair its ability to pay operating expenses and shareholder dividends
in the future.
(11) Transactions With Affiliates
During second quarter 1999 the Company entered into a modified
coinsurance arrangement to reinsure the 1999 operating results of an
affiliated company, Employers Life Insurance Company of Wausau (ELOW)
retroactive to January 1, 1999. In September 1999, NFS acquired ELOW
for $120.8 million and immediately merged ELOW into NLIC terminating
the modified coinsurance arrangement. Because ELOW was an affiliate,
the Company accounted for the merger similar to poolings-of-interests;
however, prior period financial statements were not restated due to
immateriality. The reinsurance and merger combined contributed $1.46
million to year to date net income.
The Company has a reinsurance agreement with NMIC whereby all of the
Company's accident and health business is ceded to NMIC on a modified
coinsurance basis. The agreement covers individual accident and health
business for all periods presented and group and franchise accident and
health business since July 1, 1999. Either party may terminate the
agreement on January 1 of any year with prior notice. Prior to July 1,
1999 group and franchise accident and health business and a block of
group life insurance policies were ceded to ELOW under a modified
coinsurance agreement. Under a modified coinsurance agreement, invested
assets are retained by the ceding company and investment earnings are
paid to the reinsurer. Under the terms of the Company's agreements, the
investment risk associated with changes in interest rates is borne by
the reinsurer. Risk of asset default is retained by the Company,
although a fee is paid to the Company for the retention of such risk.
The ceding of risk does not discharge the original insurer from its
primary obligation to the policyholder. The Company believes that the
terms of the modified coinsurance agreements are consistent in all
material respects with what the Company could have obtained with
unaffiliated parties. Revenues ceded to NMIC and ELOW for the years
ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 were $193.0 million, $216.9
million, and $315.3 million, respectively, while benefits, claims and
expenses ceded were $216.9 million, $259.3 million, and $326.6 million,
respectively.
Pursuant to a cost sharing agreement among NMIC and certain of its
direct and indirect subsidiaries, including the Company, NMIC provides
certain operational and administrative services, such as sales support,
advertising, personnel and general management services, to those
subsidiaries. Expenses covered by such agreement are subject to
allocation among NMIC and such subsidiaries. Measures used to allocate
expenses among companies include individual employee estimates of time
spent, special cost studies, salary expense, commission expense and
other methods agreed to by the participating companies that are within
industry guidelines and practices. In addition, beginning in 1999
Nationwide Services Company, a subsidiary of NMIC, provides computer,
telephone, mail, employee benefits administration, and other services
to NMIC and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including
the Company, based on specified rates for units of service consumed.
For the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, the Company made
payments to NMIC and Nationwide Services Company totaling $124.1
million, $95.0 million, and $85.8 million, respectively. In addition,
the Company does not believe that expenses recognized under these
agreements are materially different than expenses that would have been
recognized had the Company operated on a stand-alone basis.
The Company leases office space from NMIC and certain of its
subsidiaries. For the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, the
Company made lease payments to NMIC and its subsidiaries of $9.9
million, $8.0 million and $8.4 million, respectively.

The Company also participates in intercompany repurchase agreements
with affiliates whereby the seller will transfer securities to the
buyer at a stated value. Upon demand or a stated period, the securities
will be repurchased by the seller at the original sales price plus a
price differential. Transactions under the agreements during 1999 and
1998 were not material. The Company believes that the terms of the
repurchase agreements are materially consistent with what the Company
could have obtained with unaffiliated parties.
The Company and various affiliates entered into agreements with
Nationwide Cash Management Company (NCMC), an affiliate, under which
NCMC acts as a common agent in handling the purchase and sale of
short-term securities for the respective accounts of the participants.
Amounts on deposit with NCMC were $411.7 million and $248.4 million as
of December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and are included in
short-term investments on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
As part of certain restructuring activities that occurred prior to the
March 1997 IPO, the Company paid a dividend valued at $485.7 million to
Nationwide Corp. on January 1, 1997 consisting of the outstanding
shares of common stock of ELOW, National Casualty Company (NCC) and
West Coast Life Insurance Company (WCLIC). Also, on February 24, 1997,
the Company paid a dividend to NFS, and NFS paid an equivalent dividend
to Nationwide Corp., consisting of securities having an aggregate fair
value of $850.0 million. The Company recognized a gain of $14.4 million
on the transfer of securities.
Certain annuity products are sold through three affiliated companies,
which are also subsidiaries of NFS. Total commissions and fees paid to
these affiliates for the three years ended December 31, 1999 were $56.0
million, $60.0 million and $66.1 million, respectively.
(12) Bank Lines of Credit
NFS, NLIC and NMIC are parties to a $600.0 million revolving credit
facility which provides for a $600.0 million loan over a five year term
on a fully revolving basis with a group of national financial
institutions. The credit facility provides for several and not joint
liability with respect to any amount drawn by any party. NFS, NLIC and
NMIC pay facility and usage fees to the financial institutions to
maintain the revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 1999 the
Company had no amounts outstanding under the agreement.
(13) Contingencies
On October 29, 1998, the Company was named in a lawsuit filed in Ohio
state court related to the sale of deferred annuity products for use as
investments in tax-deferred contributory retirement plans (Mercedes
Castillo v. Nationwide Financial Services, Inc., Nationwide Life
Insurance Company and Nationwide Life and Annuity Insurance Company).
On May 3, 1999, the complaint was amended to, among other things, add
Marcus Shore as a second plaintiff. The amended complaint is brought as
a class action on behalf of all persons who purchased individual
deferred annuity contracts or participated in group annuity contracts
sold by the Company and the other named Company affiliates which were
used to fund certain tax-deferred retirement plans. The amended
complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages. No class
has been certified. On June 11, 1999, the Company and the other named
defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On March 8,
2000, the court denied the motion to dismiss the amended complaint
filed by the Company and other named defendants. The Company intends to
defend this lawsuit vigorously.
(14) Segment Information
The Company uses differences in products as the basis for defining its
reportable segments. The Company reports three product segments:
Variable Annuities, Fixed Annuities and Life Insurance.
<PAGE> 25
NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
(a wholly owned subsidiary of
Nationwide Financial Services, Inc.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
The Variable Annuities segment consists of annuity contracts that
provide the customer with access to a wide range of investment options,
tax-deferred accumulation of savings, asset protection in the event of
an untimely death, and flexible payout options including a lump sum,
systematic withdrawal or a stream of payments for life. The Company's
variable annuity products consist almost entirely of flexible premium
deferred variable annuity contracts.
The Fixed Annuities segment consists of annuity contracts that generate
a return for the customer at a specified interest rate fixed for a
prescribed period, tax-deferred accumulation of savings, and flexible
payout options including a lump sum, systematic withdrawal or a stream
of payments for life. Such contracts consist of single premium deferred
annuities, flexible premium deferred annuities and single premium
immediate annuities. The Fixed Annuities segment includes the fixed
option under variable annuity contracts.
The Life Insurance segment consists of insurance products, including
variable universal life insurance and corporate-owned life insurance
products, that provide a death benefit and may also allow the customer
to build cash value on a tax-deferred basis.
In addition to the product segments, the Company reports corporate
revenue and expenses, investments and related investment income
supporting capital not specifically allocated to its product segments,
revenues and expenses of its investment advisor subsidiary, revenues
and expenses related to group annuity contracts sold to Nationwide
Insurance employee and agent benefit plans and all realized gains and
losses on investments in a Corporate and Other segment.
During 1999 the Company revised the allocation of net investment income
among its Life Insurance and Corporate and Other segments. Also,
certain amounts previously reported as other income were reclassified
to operating expense. Amounts reported for prior periods have been
restated to reflect these changes.
The following table summarizes the financial results of the Company's
business segments for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997.

Item 27. NUMBER OF CONTRACT OWNERS
The number of contract owners of Qualified and Non-Qualified
Contracts as of February 1, 2000 was 43,646 and 42,408
respectively.
Item 28. INDEMNIFICATION
Provision is made in Nationwide's Amended and Restated Code of
Regulations and expressly authorized by the General Corporation
Law of the State of Ohio, for indemnification by Nationwide of any
person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party
to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative by reason of the fact that such person is or was a
director, officer or employee of Nationwide, against expenses,
including attorneys fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding, to the extent and
under the circumstances permitted by the General Corporation Law
of the State of Ohio.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 ("Act") may be permitted to directors,
officers or persons controlling Nationwide pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, Nationwide has been informed that in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment
by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the
securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
Item 29. PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER
(a) Nationwide Investment Services Corporation ("NISC") acts as
principal underwriter and general distributor for the
Nationwide Multi-Flex Variable Account, Nationwide Variable

the Securities and Exchange Commission to the American Council of
Life Insurance (publicly available November 28, 1988) permitting
withdrawal restrictions to the extent necessary to comply with
Section 403(b)(11) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Nationwide represents that the fees and charges deducted under the
contract in the aggregate are reasonable in relation to the
services rendered, the expenses expected to be incurred and risks
assumed by Nationwide.
