A Message
From
The Chairman of the Board
and President of
AUL American Series Fund, Inc
To Participants in AUL American Individual Variable Life Unit Trust
The current economic expansion has been particularly impressive and is now
entering its eighth year, setting a new record as the longest period of
peacetime growth. This expansion has been unique in that it has been accompanied
by low inflation, low interest rates and low unemployment. At the same time,
positive consumer confidence has translated into greater consumer spending and
strong corporate profits have resulted in increased capital spending, both major
drivers to economic growth. However, the playing field changed dramatically
during the third quarter of 1998 when financial difficulties in Russia, Asia and
Latin America and losses incurred by several well-known hedge funds caused a
great deal of concern. In addition, the capital markets had to contend with a
possible credit crunch, increased antagonism with Iraq, and the threat of
political instability here at home.
The stock market experienced a marked downturn during the third quarter in
response to these concerns. To help alleviate market stress, the Federal Reserve
Board intervened on three occasions by cutting the federal funds rate a total of
75 basis points (0 75%). The Fed's actions, coupled with an easing of the global
concerns, provided renewed vigor for the stock market during the last three
months of the year.
Treasury yields declined sharply in the second half of the year as investors
around the world sought the safety and liquidity of U S government-backed,
dollar denominated securities. Yield declines for corporate bonds and
mortgage-backed securities, however, were much smaller. Investors were
particularly leery of smaller, less liquid bond issues, especially those backed
by lower quality credits.
At the present time, most economists are expecting U S economic growth to
decelerate in 1999. The slowdown in foreign economies has led to a decline in
demand for American-made products which results in a contraction in U S exports.
Generally, economists are also expecting consumer spending to ease and the level
of corporate fixed investments to decline. In such an environment, it will be
difficult for the stock market to achieve above average returns in the coming
year.

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets, and the related
statements of operations and of changes in net assets present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of AUL American Individual Variable
Life Unit Trust at December 31, 1998, the results of its operations and changes
in its net assets from April 30, 1998 (commencement of operations) to December
31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards which 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at
December 31, 1998, by correspondence with the custodian, provide a reasonable
basis for the opinion expressed above.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The AUL American Individual Variable Life Unit Trust (Variable Account) was
established by American United Life Insurance Company (AUL) on July 10, 1997,
under procedures established by Indiana law and is registered as a unit
investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The
Variable Account commenced operations on April 30, 1998. The Variable Account is
a segregated investment account for individual variable life insurance contracts
issued by AUL and invests exclusively in shares of mutual fund portfolios
offered by the AUL American Series Fund, Inc (AUL American Series Fund),
Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Fund and Fidelity Variable Insurance
Products Fund II(Fidelity), American Century Variable Portfolios, Inc (American
Century), Alger American Fund (Alger), and T Rowe Price Equity Series, Inc (T
Rowe Price).
Security Valuation Transactions and Related Income
The market value of investments is based on the closing bid prices at December
31, 1998 Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date and
dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Taxes
Operations of the Variable Account are part of, and are taxed with, the
operations of AUL, which is taxed as a "life insurance company" under the
Internal Revenue Code. Under current law, investment income, including realized
and unrealized capital gains of the investment accounts, is not taxed to AUL to
the extent it is applied to increase reserves under the contracts. The Variable
Account has not been charged for federal and state income taxes since none have
been imposed.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates
2. Account Charges
