          SUPPLEMENT DATED DECEMBER 29, 2000 TO MAY 1, 2000 PROSPECTUS

The information in this supplement updates and amends certain information
contained in the prospectus dated May 1, 2000 and replaces the Supplement
X.INGS2-00 dated August 21, 2000. You should read this supplement along with the
prospectus.

    - Effective November 17, 2000, Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company's
      ("ALIAC") broker-dealer subsidiary, Aetna Investment Services, Inc. (which
      was subsequently converted to Aetna Investment Services, LLC) ("AIS"),
      became the principal underwriter for the securities sold under the
      prospectus. AIS, a Delaware limited liability company, is registered as a
      broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission. AIS is also a
      member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and the
      Securities Investor Protection Corporation. AIS' principal office is
      located at 151 Farmington Avenue, Hartford, Connecticut 06156. ALIAC is no
      longer a registered broker-dealer.

    - On December 13, 2000, ALIAC became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of
      ING Groep N.V. ("ING"). ING is a global financial institution active in
      the fields of insurance, banking and asset management. The terms of your
      contract will not be affected by this change in ownership. In the future,
      you may begin to see the use of the ING lion logo on our printed
      materials.

    - The following information updates and replaces the third paragraph of the
      "The Company and Management" section on page 23 of the prospectus:

      The following are the Directors and Executive Officers of Aetna Life
      Insurance and Annuity Company.*

    - The following information updates and replaces the "Legal Matters and
      Proceedings" subsection on page 26 of the prospectus:

      LEGAL MATTERS AND PROCEEDINGS

      We are aware of no material legal proceedings pending which involve the
      Separate Account as a party or which would materially affect the Separate
      Account. The validity of the securities offered by this Prospectus has
      been passed upon by Counsel to the Company.

      In recent years, several life insurance and annuity companies have been
      named as defendants in class action lawsuits, relating to life insurance
      and annuity pricing and sales practices. The Company is a defendant in one
      such lawsuit, a purported class action which was filed against the Company
      in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida on
      June 30, 2000, by Helen Reese, Richard Reese, Villere Bergeron and Alan
      Eckert (the "Reese Complaint"). The Reese Complaint claims that the
      Company engaged in unlawful sales practices in marketing life insurance
      policies. The Company intends to defend this action vigorously.

      The Company also is a party to other litigation and arbitration
      proceedings in the ordinary course of its business, none of which is
      expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

         (A WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF AETNA RETIREMENT HOLDINGS, INC.)

              CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  (UNAUDITED)

(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The consolidated financial statements include Aetna Life Insurance and
Annuity Company ("ALIAC") and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Aetna Insurance
Company of America ("AICA"), Aetna Investment Adviser Holding Company, Inc.
("IA Holdco") and Aetna Investment Services, Inc. (collectively, the "Company").
ALIAC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Aetna Retirement Holdings, Inc.
("HOLDCO"). HOLDCO is a wholly owned subsidiary of Aetna Retirement
Services, Inc., whose ultimate parent is Aetna Inc. ("Aetna"). On June 30, 2000
HOLDCO contributed Aetna Investment Services, Inc. ("AISI") to the Company.
(Refer to note 2). The Company has two business segments: Financial Products and
Investment Management Services. On October 1, 1998, the Company sold its
individual life insurance business to Lincoln National Corporation ("Lincoln")
and accordingly, it is now classified as Discontinued Operations.

    These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles and are unaudited. The
contribution of IA Holdco to the Company, which occurred on July 1, 1999, and
the contribution of AISI to the Company were each accounted for in a manner
similar to that of a pooling-of-interests and, accordingly, the Company's
historical consolidated financial statements have been restated to include the
accounts and results of operations of IA Holdco and AISI. Certain
reclassifications have been made to 1999 financial information to conform to the
2000 presentation. These interim statements necessarily rely heavily on
estimates, including assumptions as to annualized tax rates. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results for the
interim periods have been made. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring
nature. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes
as presented in ALIAC's 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain financial
information that is normally included in annual financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, but that is not
required for interim reporting purposes, has been condensed or omitted.

(2) CONTRIBUTION OF AISI FROM HOLDCO

    On June 30, 2000, HOLDCO contributed AISI to the Company. AISI is registered
with the Securities Exchange Commission as a broker/dealer and is a member of
the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. It is also registered with
the appropriate state securities authorities as a broker/ dealer. The principal
operation of AISI is the sale of fixed and variable annuities and mutual funds
through its registered representatives.

(3) RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

    AGREEMENT TO SELL AETNA FINANCIAL SERVICES AND AETNA INTERNATIONAL

    On July 20, 2000, Aetna Inc. ("Aetna"), the ultimate parent of the Company,
announced that it reached a definitive agreement to sell its Aetna Financial
Services and Aetna International businesses to ING Groep N.V. ("ING") in a
transaction valued at approximately $7.7 billion. The Company is part of the
Aetna Financial Services business and will be included in the sale to ING. Under
the terms of the agreement, in two effectively simultaneous steps: (1) Aetna
will spin off to its shareholders the shares of a standalone health company that
will be comprised primarily of its Aetna U.S. Healthcare

and Large Case Pensions businesses; and (2) Aetna, which then will be comprised
of Aetna Financial Services and Aetna International, will merge with a newly
formed subsidiary of ING.

    Aetna's goal is to close the transaction, which is subject to receipt of
required shareholder, regulatory and other consents and approvals, as well as
other closing conditions, by year-end 2000. An Aetna shareholders' meeting has
been scheduled for November 30, 2000 to consider the transaction and certain
other matters. The full impact of the sale to ING on the Company's financial
position and results of operations cannot be determined at this time.

(4) NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD

    On January 1, 2000, the Company adopted Statement of Position 98-7, Deposit
Accounting: Accounting for Insurance and Reinsurance Contracts That Do Not
Transfer Insurance Risk, issued by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants. This statement provides guidance on how to account for all
insurance and reinsurance contracts that do not transfer insurance risk, except
for long-duration life and health insurance contracts. The adoption of this
standard had no impact on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

(5) FUTURE ACCOUNTING STANDARD

    In September 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Financial Accounting Standard ("FAS") No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities which replaces
FAS No. 125, Accounting for Transfers and Services of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities. This standard revises the methods for accounting
for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral as
outlined in FAS No. 125, and requires certain additional disclosures. For
transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities,
this standard will be effective for the Company's June 30, 2001 financial
statements. However, for disclosures regarding securitizations and collateral,
as well as recognition and reclassification of collateral, this standard will be
effective for the Company's December 31, 2000 financial statements. The Company
is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard, however it
does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material effect on its
financial position or results of operations.

    In June 1998, the FASB issued FAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities. In June 2000, further guidance related to
accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities was provided when
the FASB issued FAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and
Certain Hedging Activities -- an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. This
standard, as amended, requires companies to record all derivatives on the
balance sheet as either assets or liabilities and measure those instruments at
fair value. The manner in which companies are to record gains or losses
resulting from changes in the values of those derivatives depends on the use of
the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. As amended by
FAS No. 137, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities --
Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133, this standard is
effective for the Company's financial statements beginning January 1, 2001, with
early adoption permitted. The impact of FAS No. 133, as amended, on the
Company's financial statements will vary based on certain factors including
future interpretive guidance from the FASB, the

extent of the Company's hedging activities, the types of hedging instruments
used and the effectiveness of such instruments. The Company is evaluating the
impact of the adoption of this standard, as amended, and currently does not
believe that it will have a material effect on the Company's financial position
or results of operations.

(8) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

    COMMITMENTS

    Through the normal course of investment operations, the Company commits to
either purchase or sell securities or money market instruments at a specified
future date and at a specified price or yield. The inability of counterparties
to honor these commitments may result in either higher or lower replacement
cost. Also, there is likely to be a change in the value of the securities
underlying the commitments between the time that the Company enters into the
commitments and the specified future date on which the Company must purchase or
sell the securities, as the case may be. As of September 30, 2000, there were no
such off-balance sheet commitments.

    LITIGATION

    In recent years, several life insurance and annuity companies have been
named as defendants in class action lawsuits relating to life insurance and
annuity pricing and sales practices. The Company has been a defendant in two
such lawsuits.

    A purported class action complaint was filed in the Circuit Court of
Lauderdale County, Alabama on March 28, 2000 by Loretta Shaner against ALIAC
(the "Shaner Complaint"). This case was removed to the United States District
Court for the Northern District of Alabama. The Shaner Complaint sought
unspecified compensatory damages from ALIAC and unnamed affiliates of ALIAC. The
Shaner Complaint claimed that ALIAC's sale of deferred annuity products for use
as investments in tax-deferred contributory retirement plans (e.g., IRAs) was
improper. On August 31, 2000, the Court entered an order and judgement
dismissing the case. The case has been refiled as an individual action in the
Alabama state court.

    A purported class action complaint was filed in the United States District
Court for the Middle District of Florida on June 30, 2000, by Helen Reese,
Richard Reese, Villere Bergeron and Allan Eckert against ALIAC (the "Reese
Complaint"). The Reese Complaint seeks compensatory and punitive damages and
injunctive relief from ALIAC. The Reese Complaint claims that ALIAC engaged in
unlawful sales practices in marketing life insurance policies. ALIAC has moved
to dismiss the Reese Complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief
can be granted. This litigation is in the preliminary stages. The Company
intends to defend the action vigorously.

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

(9) DIVIDENDS

    During 2000, the Company paid $10.1 million in dividends to HOLDCO, which
did not require approval from the Insurance Commissioner of the State of
Connecticut.
