                        valued in accordance with generally-accepted accounting

                   As of the filing date of this Form
                   N-8B-2, the Policies have not been offered to
                   the public.

         (c)  If there is any variation in the offering price of the trust's
              securities to any person or classes of persons other than
              underwriters, state the nature and amount of such variation and
              indicate the person or classes of persons to whom such offering
              is made.

                   The Company does not require a premium payment of a fixed
                   amount at fixed intervals for a specified time period.  A
                   Policyowner may, subject to certain limitations, pay
                   premiums at any frequency in any amount.  Nonetheless,
                   Policyowners will need to pay sufficient premiums to
                   maintain adequate cash value to pay monthly charges,
                   including the cost of insurance.  The cost of insurance will
                   vary, depending upon the insured's issue age, sex, and risk
                   classification.  In addition, there will be additional
                   charges if optional insurance benefits are elected.

                   Thus, for the Policy to remain in force, a Policyowner will
                   need to take the cost of insurance, as well as other factors
                   such as investment performance, into consideration in
                   determining the amount and frequency of premium payments.

    45.  Furnish the following information with respect to any suspension of
         the redemption rights of the securities issued by the trust during the
         three fiscal years covered by the financial statements filed herewith:

              (b)  the number of days' notice given to security holders prior
                   to suspension of redemption rights.

              (c)  reason for suspension.

              (d)  period during which suspension was in effect.

                        Not applicable.

                   The Company assumes the risk that the deduction made for
                   mortality risks will prove inadequate to cover actual
                   mortality costs.  The Company also assumes the risk that
                   deductions for expenses may be inadequate.

              proceeds of policies must be put.

                   beneficiary, any contingent beneficiaries, or the estate of
                   the Policyowner as stated in the application for the Policy
                   or as subsequently modified by the Policyowner.  There is no

              remains in force except in the case of lapse.

         (g)  The method of determining the amount of premiums to be paid by
              holders of securities.

              during the last fiscal year.

                   Not applicable.

              part of such premiums, the name of each such person and the

                   risks.
