SUMMARY
A. CONTRACTS OFFERED
Group contracts issued in conjunction with a Deferred Compensation Plan or a
Qualified Plan of an employer are offered.
The Qualified Plan contracts available with respect to DC-II are limited to
plans established and sponsored by Employers for their Employees. Qualified
Plans provide a way for an Employer to establish a funded retirement plan for
its Employees. The contract is normally issued to the Employer or to the trustee
or custodian of the Employer's Plan.
Contract Owners who have purchased a prior series of contracts may continue
to make Contributions to such contracts subject to the terms and provisions of
their contracts. New Participants may be added to existing contracts of the
prior series but no new contracts of that series will be issued. Prior Contract
Owners are referred to the Appendix (commencing on page ) for a description of
the sales charges and other expenses applicable to earlier series of contracts.
B. ACCUMULATION PERIOD UNDER THE CONTRACTS
During the Accumulation Period under the contracts, Contributions made by
the Employer to the contracts are used to purchase variable account interests.
Contributions allocated to purchase variable interests may, after the deductions
described hereafter, be invested in selected Sub-Accounts of DC-I or DC-II, as
appropriate.
C. CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGES
No deduction for sales expense is made at the time of allocation of
Contributions to the contracts. A deduction for contingent deferred sales
charges is made if there is any surrender of contract values during the first 12
Participant Contract Years. During the first 6 years thereof, a maximum
deduction of 5% will be made against the full amount of any such surrender.
During the next 2 years thereof, a maximum deduction of 4% will be made against
the full amount of any such surrender. During the next 2 years thereof, a
maximum deduction of 3% will be made against the full amount of any such
surrender. During the next 2 years thereof, a maximum deduction of 2% will be
made against the full amount of any such surrender. Such charges will in no
event exceed 8.50% when applied as a percentage against the sum of all
Contributions to a Participant's Individual Account. The amount or term of the
contingent deferred sales charge may be reduced (see "Experience Rating of
Contracts", page ).
No deduction for contingent deferred sales charges will be made in certain
cases. (See "Is there ever a time when the sales charges do not apply?"
commencing on page .)
Hartford Life reserves the right to limit any increase in the Contributions
made to a Participant's Individual Account under any contract to no more than
three times the total Contributions made on behalf of such Participant during
the initial 12 consecutive months following the Date of Coverage. Increases in
excess of those described will be accepted only with the consent of Hartford
Life and subject to the then current deductions being made under the contracts.
D. TRANSFER BETWEEN ACCOUNTS
During the Accumulation Period a Contract Owner may allocate monies held in
the Separate Account among the available Sub-Accounts of the Separate Account.
Each transfer under the contract may be subject to a $5.00 Transfer Fee (see
"Experience Rating of Contracts", page ). However, there may be additional
restrictions under certain circumstances (see "May I transfer assets between
Sub-Accounts?" commencing on page ).
E. ANNUITY PERIOD UNDER THE CONTRACTS
Contract values held with respect to Participants' Individual Accounts with
respect to DC-I or DC-II, as appropriate, at the end of the Accumulation Period
(and any additional Contributions that a Deferred Compensation Plan Contract
Owner (DC-I, only) elects to make at the commencement of the Annuity Period)
will, at the direction of the Contract Owner, be allocated to establish
Annuitants' Accounts to provide Fixed and/or Variable Annuities under the
contracts.
7
<PAGE>
Additional Contributions made under the contracts (on Deferred Compensation
Plans written with respect to DC-I only) at the beginning of the Annuity Period,
to effect increased Fixed and/or Variable Annuity payments, will be subject to a
sales charge deduction in the maximum amount of 3.50% of such Contribution. (See
"How are Contributions made to establish my Annuity account?" commencing on page
.)
F. MINIMUM DEATH BENEFITS
A Minimum Death Benefit is provided in the event of death of the Participant
under a Participant's Individual Account prior to the earlier of the
Participant's 65th birthday or the Annuity Commencement Date. (see "What would
my Beneficiary receive as death proceeds?" commencing on page .)
G. ANNUITY OPTIONS
The Annuity Commencement Date will not be deferred beyond the Participant's
75th birthday or such earlier date as may be required by applicable law and/or
regulation. If a Contract Owner does not elect otherwise, Hartford Life reserves
the right to begin Annuity payments automatically at age 65 under an option
providing for a life Annuity with 120 monthly payments certain. (see "What are
the available Annuity Options under the contracts?" commencing on page .)
However, Hartford Life will not assume responsibility in determining or
monitoring minimum distributions beginning at age 70 1/2.
H. DEDUCTIONS FOR PREMIUM TAXES
Deductions will be made during the Accumulation Period and Annuity Period,
as appropriate, for the payment of any Premium Taxes that may be levied against
the contract by a state or other governmental entity. The range is generally
between 0% and 3.50%. (see "Charges Under The Contract" on page .)
I. ASSET CHARGE IN THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
During both the Accumulation Period and the Annuity Period a charge is made
by Hartford Life for providing the mortality, expense and administrative
undertakings under the contracts. With respect to contract values held in DC-I,
such charge is an annual rate of 1.10% (.70% for mortality, .15% for expense and
.25% for administrative undertakings) of the average daily net assets of DC-I.
With respect to contract values held in DC-II, such charge is an annual rate of
1.25% (.85% for mortality, .15% for expense and .25% for administrative
undertakings) of the average daily net assets of DC-II. The rate charged for the
mortality, expense and administrative undertakings under the contracts may be
reduced (see "Experience Rating of Contracts", page ). The rate charged for
the mortality, expense and administrative undertakings may be periodically
increased by Hartford Life subject to a maximum annual rate of 2.00%, provided,
however, that no such increase will occur unless the Commission shall have first
approved any such increase. (See "Charges Under The Contract," page .)
J. FUND FEES AND CHANGES
The Funds are subject to certain fees, charges and expenses. See the
accompanying Prospectus for the Funds.
K. MINIMUM PAYMENT
The minimum Contribution that may be made each month on behalf of a
Participant's Individual Account under a contract is $30.00 unless the
Employer's plan provides otherwise.
L. PAYMENT ALLOCATION TO DC-I AND DC-II
The contracts permit the allocation of Contributions, in multiples of ten
percent of each Contribution among the several Sub-Accounts of DC-I and DC-II.
The minimum amount that may be allocated to or invested in Accumulation Units of
any Sub-Account in a Separate Account shall not be less than $10.00.
M. VOTING RIGHTS OF CONTRACT OWNERS

When a Sub-Account advertises its standardized total return, it will usually
be calculated for one year, five years, and ten years or some other relevant
periods if the Sub-Account has not been in existence for at least ten years.
Total return is measured by comparing the value of an investment in the
Sub-Account at the beginning of the relevant period to the value of the
investment at the end of the period (assuming the deduction of any contingent
deferred sales charge which would be payable if the investment were redeemed at
the end of the period). Total return figures are not of all Fund level
management fees and charges, the mortality and expense risk charge and the
Annual Contract Fee.
The Bond Fund and Mortgage Securities Fund Sub-Accounts may advertise yield
in addition to total return. The yield will be computed in the following manner:
The net investment income per unit earned during a recent 30 day period is
divided by the unit value on the last day of the period. This figure reflects
the recurring charges on the Separate Account level including the Annual
Contract Fee and the mortality and expense risk charge.
The Money Market Fund and U.S. Government Money Market Fund Sub-Accounts may
advertise yield and effective yield. The yield of the Sub-Account is based upon
the income earned by the Sub-Account over a seven-day period and then
annualized, i.e. the income earned in the period is assumed to be earned every
seven days over a 52-week period and stated as a percentage of the investment.
Effective yield is calculated similarly but when annualized, the income earned
by the investment is assumed to be reinvested in Sub-Account units and thus
compounded in the course of a 52-week period. Yield and effective yield reflect
the recurring charges on the Separate Account level including the Annual
Contract Fee and the mortality and expense risk charge.
Total return at the Separate Account level includes all contract charges:
contingent deferred sales charges, mortality and expense risk charges, and the
Annual Contract Fee and is therefore lower than total return at the Fund level,
with no comparable charges. Likewise, yield at the Separate Account level
includes all recurring charges (except sales charges), and is therefore lower
than yield at the Fund level, with no comparable charges.

INTRODUCTION
This Prospectus has been designed to provide you with the necessary
information to make a decision on purchasing contracts issued in conjunction
with a Deferred Compensation Plan or Qualified Plan of an Employer offered by
Hartford Life in Separate Account DC-I or DC-II. This Prospectus describes only
the elements of the contracts pertaining to the variable portion of the
contract. The contracts may contain a General Account option which is not
described in this Prospectus. Please read the Glossary of Special Terms on pages
and prior to reading this Prospectus to familiarize yourself with the
terms being used.
THE DC-I AND DC-II CONTRACT AND
SEPARATE ACCOUNT DC-I AND
SEPARATE ACCOUNT TWO (DC-II)
WHAT ARE THE DC-I AND DC-II CONTRACTS?
On contracts issued in conjunction with a Deferred Compensation Plan of an
Employer, variable account Contributions are held in Hartford Life Insurance
Company DC Variable Account-I ("DC-I") during the Accumulation Period and in a
series of Hartford Life Insurance Company Separate Account Two ("DC-II")
during the Annuity Period.
On contracts issued in conjunction with a Qualified Plan of an Employer,
Contributions are held in DC-II during both the Accumulation Period and
Annuity Period.
The Qualified Plan contracts available with respect to DC-II are limited to
voluntary plans established and sponsored by Employers for their Employees.
Qualified Plans provide a way for an Employer to establish a funded retirement
plan for its Employees. The contract is normally issued to the Employer or to
the trustee or custodian of the Employer's Plan.
Deferred Compensation Plans provide a way for an Employer and its Employees
to arrange for eligible employees to defer a certain portion of their income
("Deferred Compensation") to a determinable future date and thereby defer
current federal income taxes on such deferred compensation until actually
received by the Employee according to the terms of the Employer's Plan. An
Employer contemplating the offering of such a Plan should consult with its
legal counsel with respect to any securities aspects of interest in such
Plans. At all times, the Employer is the sole and exclusive owner of the
contract issued with respect to the Plan. An Employee electing to participate
in the Employer's Plan is, at all times, a general creditor of the Employer
establishing the Plan.
During the Accumulation Period under the contracts, Contributions made by
the Employer to the contracts are used to purchase variable account interests.
Contributions allocated to purchase variable interests may, after the
deductions described hereafter, be invested in selected Sub-Accounts of DC-I
or DC-II, as appropriate.
WHO CAN BUY THESE CONTRACTS?
The group variable annuity contracts offered under this Prospectus are for
use in connection with plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or 403(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code, including annuity purchase plans adopted by public
school systems and certain tax-exempt organizations according to Section
403(b) of the Internal Revenue Code; annuity purchase plans adopted according
to Section 408 of the Internal Revenue Code, including employee pension plans
established for employees by a state, a political subdivision of a state, or
an agency or instrumentality of either a state or a political subdivision of a
state, and certain eligible deferred compensation plans as defined in Section
457 of the Internal Revenue Code; and pension or profit-sharing plans
described in Section 401(a) and 401(k) ("Qualified Contracts").
WHAT ARE THE SEPARATE ACCOUNTS AND HOW DO THEY OPERATE?
Provision has been made for two different Separate Accounts (DC-I and a
series of Separate Account Two (DC-II)), to be operative during the life of
the contracts which are issued in conjunction with Deferred Compensation
Plans. This arrangement provides for tax treatment of DC-I which may provide
tax
14
<PAGE>
advantages to Deferred Compensation Plan Contract Owners. (see "Federal Tax
Considerations," commencing on page .) Provision has been made for DC-II
only, to be operative during the life of a contract issued in conjunction with
a Qualified Plan. DC-I and a series of Separate Account Two (DC-II) have been
organized as unit investment trust types of investment companies and have been
registered as such with the Commission under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended. The Separate Accounts meet the definition of "separate
account" under federal securities law.
Registration of the Separate Accounts with the Commission does not involve
supervision of the management or investment practices or policies of the
Separate Account or of Hartford Life by the Commission. However, Hartford Life
and the Separate Accounts are subject to supervision and regulation by the
Department of Insurance of the State of Connecticut.
Under Connecticut law, the assets of the Separate Accounts attributable to
the contracts offered under this Prospectus are held for the benefit of the
owners of, and the persons entitled to payments under, those contracts. Also,
in accordance with the contracts, the assets in the Separate Accounts
attributable to contracts participating in the Separate Accounts are not
chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business Hartford Life
may conduct. So, you will not be affected by the rate of return of Hartford
Life's general account, nor by the investment performance of any of Hartford
Life's other separate accounts.
Your contributions are allocated to one or more Sub-Accounts of the Separate
Account. Each Sub-Account is invested exclusively in the assets of one
underlying Fund. Contributions and proceeds of transfers between Sub-Accounts
are applied to purchase shares in the appropriate Fund at net asset value
determined as of the end of the Valuation Period during which the payments
were received or the transfer made. All distributions from the Fund are
reinvested at net asset value. The value of your investment during the
Accumulation Period will therefore vary in accordance with the net income and
fluctuation in the individual investments within the underlying Fund portfolio
or portfolios. During the Variable Annuity payout period, both your annuity
payments and reserve values will vary in accordance with these factors.
HARTFORD LIFE DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE INVESTMENT RESULTS OF THE SUB-ACCOUNTS
OR ANY OF THE UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS. THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT THE VALUE OF
A CONTRACT DURING THE YEARS PRIOR TO RETIREMENT OR THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF THE
VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS WILL EQUAL THE SUM OF ALL CONTRIBUTIONS MADE UNDER
THE CONTRACT. SINCE EACH UNDERLYING FUND HAS DIFFERENT INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES,
EACH IS SUBJECT TO DIFFERENT RISKS. THESE RISKS ARE MORE FULLY DESCRIBED IN
THE ACCOMPANYING FUND PROSPECTUS.
Hartford Life reserves the right, subject to compliance with the law, to
substitute the shares of any other registered investment company for the
shares of any Fund held by the Separate Account. Substitution may occur if
shares of the Fund(s) become unavailable or due to changes in applicable law
or interpretations of law. Current law requires notification to you of any
such substitution and approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Hartford Life also reserves the right, subject to compliance with the law to
offer additional Sub-Accounts with differing investment objectives.
The Separate Account may be subject to liabilities arising from series whose
assets are attributable to other variable annuity contracts or variable life
insurance policies offered by the Separate Account which are not described in
this Prospectus.
Hartford Life may offer additional Separate Account options from time to
time under these contracts. Such new options will be subject to the then in
effect charges, fees, and or transfer restrictions for the contracts for such
additional separate accounts.
OPERATION OF THE CONTRACT
HOW ARE CONTRIBUTIONS CREDITED?
A group contract is issued to an Employer adopting a Plan and will cover all
present and future Participants in the Employer's Plan. Contracts provide for
a variable (Separate Account) Contributions during the Accumulation Period.
The number of Accumulation Units purchased is determined by dividing the
Contribution amount by the appropriate Accumulation Unit Value on the date the
Contribution is credited to the Participant's Individual
15
<PAGE>
Account. Initial Contributions are credited to a Participant's Individual
Account within two days of receipt of a properly completed application and the
initial Contribution. Subsequent Contributions are credited to a Participant's
Individual Account on the date following receipt of the Contribution by
Hartford Life at its home office, P.O. Box 2999, Hartford, CT 06104-2999. If
an application or any other information is incomplete when received,
Contributions will be credited to the Participant's Individual Account within
five business days. If an initial contribution is not credited within five
business days, it will be immediately returned unless you have been informed
of the delay and request that the Contribution not be returned. Subsequent
payments cannot be credited on the same day of receipt unless they are
accompanied by adequate instructions.
The number of Sub-Account Accumulation Units will not change because of a
subsequent change in an Accumulation Unit's value, but the dollar value of an
Accumulation Unit will vary to reflect the investment experience of the
appropriate Fund shares that serve as the underlying investment for the
Sub-Account.
MAY I MAKE CHANGES IN THE AMOUNTS OF MY CONTRIBUTION?
Yes, however the minimum Contribution that may be made at any one time on
behalf of a Participant during the Accumulation Period under a contract is $30
unless the Employer's Plan provides otherwise. If the Plan adopted by the
Contract Owner so provides, the contract permits the allocation of
Contributions, in multiples of 10% among the several Sub-Accounts of DC-I and
DC-II. The minimum amount that may be allocated to any Sub-Account in a
Separate Account shall not be less than $10. Such changes must be requested in
the form and manner prescribed by Hartford Life.
MAY I TRANSFER ASSETS BETWEEN SUB-ACCOUNTS?
Yes, during the Accumulation Period you may transfer the values of your
Sub-Account allocations from one or more Sub-Accounts to another.
The following transfer restrictions apply to contracts issued or amended on
or after May 1, 1992.
Transfers of assets presently held in the General Account, or which were
held in the General Account at any time during the preceding 3 months, to the
Money Market Fund Sub-Account or to the U.S. Government Money Market
Sub-Account are prohibited.
Similarly, transfers of assets presently held in the Money Market Fund
Sub-Account or U.S. Government Money Market Sub-Account, or which were held in
either of these two Sub-Accounts or the General Account during the preceding 3
months, to the General Account are prohibited.
Transfers between Sub-Accounts and changes in Sub-Account allocations may be
made by written request or by calling 1-800-771-3051. Any transfers or changes
made in writing will be effected as of the date the request is received by
Hartford Life at its home office, P.O. Box 2999, Hartford, 06104-2999.
Telephone transfer changes may not be permitted in some states. The policy of
Hartford Life and its agents and affiliates is that they will not be
responsible for losses resulting from acting upon telephone requests
reasonably believed to be genuine. Hartford Life will employ reasonable
procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine;
otherwise Hartford Life may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or
fraudulent instructions. The procedures Hartford Life follows for transactions
initiated by telephone include requirements that Participant's provide certain
identifying information. All transfer instructions by telephone are recorded.
Each transfer may be subject to a $5.00 transfer fee (see "Experience Rating
of Contracts".)
In addition, the right, with respect to a Participant's Individual Account,
to transfer monies between Sub-Accounts is subject to modification if Hartford
Life determines, in its sole opinion, that the exercise of that right by the
Contract Owner/Participant is, or would be, to the disadvantage of other
Contract Owners/ Participants. Any modification could be applied to transfers
to or from the same or all of the Accounts and could include, but not be
limited to, the requirement of a minimum time period between each transfer,
not accepting transfer requests of an agent acting under a power of attorney
on behalf of more than one Participant or Contract Owner, or limiting the
dollar amount that may be transferred between Sub-Accounts by a Contract
Owner/Participant at any one time. Such restrictions may be applied in any
manner reasonably designed to prevent any use of the transfer right which is
considered by Hartford Life to be to the disadvantage of other Contract
Owners/Participants.
16
<PAGE>
WHAT HAPPENS IF THE CONTRACT OWNER FAILS TO MAKE CONTRIBUTIONS?
A contract will be deemed paid-up within 30 days after any anniversary date
of the contract if the Contract Owner has not remitted a Contribution to
Hartford Life during the preceding 12 month period. Effective with a change of
the contract to paid-up status, no further Contributions will be accepted by
Hartford Life and each Participant's Individual Account will be considered an
inactive account until the commencement of Annuity payments or until the value
of the Participant's Individual Account is disbursed or applied in accordance
with the termination provisions. (See "How can a contract be redeemed or
surrendered?" page ). Once a contract has been placed on a paid-up status it
may not be reinstated. Persons receiving Annuity payments at the time of any
change to paid-up status will continue to receive their payments.
MAY I ASSIGN OR TRANSFER THE CONTRACT?
The group contracts issued with respect to Deferred Compensation Plans may
be assigned by the Contract Owner. Some forms of Qualified Plans prohibit the
assignment of a contract or any interest therein. No assignment will be
effective until a copy has been filed at the offices of Hartford Life at
Hartford, Connecticut, prior to settlement for Hartford Life's liability under
the contract. Hartford Life assumes no responsibility for the validity of any
such assignments. Participants may not assign their individual account
interests.
HOW DO I KNOW WHAT MY ACCOUNT IS WORTH?
The value of the Accumulation Units in DC-I or DC-II representing an
interest in the appropriate Fund shares that are held under the contract were
initially established on the date that Contributions were first contributed to
the appropriate Sub-Account of the Separate Account. The value of the
respective Accumulation Units for any subsequent day is determined by
multiplying the Accumulation Unit value for the preceding day by the net
investment factor of the appropriate Sub-Account, as appropriate (see "How is
the Accumulation Unit value determined?" below).
The value of a Participant's Individual Account under a contract at any time
prior to the commencement of Annuity payments can be determined by multiplying
the total number of Sub-Account Accumulation Units credited to a Participant's
Individual Account by the current Accumulation Unit value for the respective
Sub-Account. There is no assurance that the value in the Sub-Accounts will
equal or exceed the Contributions made by the Contract Owner to such
Sub-Accounts.
HOW IS THE ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE DETERMINED?
The Accumulation Unit value for each Sub-Account will vary to reflect the
investment experience of the applicable Fund and will be determined on each
"Valuation Day" by multiplying the Accumulation Unit value of the particular
Sub-Account on the preceding Valuation Day by a "Net Investment Factor" for
that Sub-Account for the Valuation Period then ended. The Net Investment
Factor for each of the Sub-Accounts is equal to the net asset value per share
of the corresponding Fund at the end of the Valuation Period (plus the per
share amount of any dividends or capital gains by that Fund if the ex-dividend
date occurs in the Valuation Period then ended) divided by the net asset value
per share of the corresponding Fund at the beginning of the Valuation Period
and subtracting from that amount the amount of any charges assessed during the
Valuation Period then ending. You should refer to the Prospectuses for each of
the Funds which accompany this Prospectus for a description of how the assets
of each Fund are valued since each determination has a direct bearing on the
Accumulation Unit value of the Sub-Account and therefore the value of a
contract.
HOW ARE THE UNDERLYING FUND SHARES VALUED?
The shares of the Fund are valued at net asset value on a daily basis. A
complete description of the valuation method used in valuing Fund shares may
be found in the accompanying Prospectus of each Fund.

<PAGE>
PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
WHAT WOULD MY BENEFICIARY RECEIVE AS DEATH PROCEEDS?
The contracts provide that in the event the Participant dies before the
selected Annuity Commencement Date or the Participant's age 65 (whichever
occurs first) the Minimum Death Benefit payable on such contract will be the
greater of (a) the value of the Participant's Individual Account determined as
of the day written proof of death of such person is received by Hartford Life,
or (b) 100% of the total Contributions made to such Account, reduced by any
prior partial surrenders.
The benefit may be taken by the Contract Owner in a single sum, in which
case payment will be made within seven days of receipt of proof of death by
Hartford Life, unless subject to postponement as explained below. In lieu of
payment in one sum, a Contract Owner may elect that the amount be applied,
subject to the suspension provisions described below, under any one of the
optional Annuity forms provided under DC-II (see "What are the available
Annuity options under the contracts?" commencing on page ) to provide
Annuity payments to the Beneficiary.
An election to receive death benefits under a form of Annuity must be made
prior to a lump sum settlement with Hartford Life and within one year after
the death by written notice to Hartford Life at its offices in Hartford,
Connecticut. Benefit proceeds due on death may be applied to provide variable
payments, fixed payments, or a combination of variable and fixed payments. No
election to provide Annuity payments will become operative unless the initial
Annuity payment is at least $20.00 on either a variable or fixed basis, or
$20.00 on each basis when a combination benefit is elected. The manner in
which the Annuity payments are determined and in which they may vary from
month to month are the same as applicable to a Participant's Individual
Account after retirement (see "How are Contributions made to establish my
Annuity account?" page ).
HOW CAN A CONTRACT BE REDEEMED OR SURRENDERED?
THERE ARE CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON SECTION 403(B) TAX-SHELTERED ANNUITIES. AS
OF DECEMBER 31, 1988, ALL SECTION 403(B) ANNUITIES HAVE LIMITS ON FULL AND
PARTIAL SURRENDERS. CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE CONTRACT MADE AFTER DECEMBER 31, 1988
AND ANY INCREASES IN CASH VALUE AFTER DECEMBER 31, 1988 MAY NOT BE DISTRIBUTED
UNLESS THE CONTRACT OWNER/EMPLOYEE HAS (A) ATTAINED AGE 59 1/2, (B) TERMINATED
EMPLOYMENT, (C) DIED, (D) BECOME DISABLED OR (E) EXPERIENCED FINANCIAL
HARDSHIP.
DISTRIBUTIONS DUE TO FINANCIAL HARDSHIP OR SEPARATION FROM SERVICE MAY STILL
BE SUBJECT TO A PENALTY TAX OF 10%.
HARTFORD LIFE WILL NOT ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY IN DETERMINING WHETHER A
WITHDRAWAL IS PERMISSIBLE, WITH OR WITHOUT TAX PENALTY, IN ANY PARTICULAR
SITUATION; OR IN MONITORING WITHDRAWAL REQUESTS REGARDING PER OR POST JANUARY
1, 1989 ACCOUNT VALUES.
On termination of Contributions to a contract by the Contract Owner on
behalf of a Participant prior to the selected Annuity Commencement Date for
such Participant, the Contract Owner will have the following options:
1.To continue a Participant's Individual Account in force under the
contract. Under this option, when the selected Annuity Commencement Date
arrives, the Contract Owner will begin to receive Annuity payments under the
selected Annuity option under the contract. (See "What are the available
Annuity options under the contracts?" commencing on page .) At any time in
the interim, a Contract Owner may surrender a Participant's Individual
Account for a lump sum cash settlement in accordance with 3. below.
2.To provide Annuity payments immediately. The values in a Participant's
Individual Account may be applied, subject to contractual provisions, to
provide for Fixed or Variable Annuity payments, or a combination thereof,
commencing immediately, under the selected Annuity option under the
contract. (See "What are the available Annuity options under the contracts?"
commencing on page .)
3.To surrender a Participant's Individual Account under the contract for a
lump sum cash settlement, in which event the Annual Contract Fee and any
applicable contingent deferred sales charges will be
18
<PAGE>
deducted. (See "How are the charges under these contracts made?" commencing
on page .) The amount received will be the net termination value next
computed after receipt by Hartford Life at its home office, P.O. Box 2999,
Hartford, CT 06104-2999, of a written surrender request for complete
surrender. Payment will normally be made as soon as possible but not later
than seven days after the written request is received by Hartford Life.
4.In the case of a partial surrender the amount requested is either taken
out of the specified Sub-Account(s) or if no Sub-Account(s) are
specified, the requested amount is taken out of all applicable Sub-
Account(s) on a pro rata basis. Within this context, the contingent deferred
sales charges are taken as a percentage of the amount withdrawn (see "How
are the charges under these contracts made?" page ). If the contingent
deferred sales charges have been experience rated (see "How are the charges
under these contracts made?", page ), any amounts not subject to the
contingent deferred sales charge will be deemed to be surrendered last.
CAN PAYMENT OF THE REDEMPTION OR SURRENDER VALUE EVER BE POSTPONED BEYOND THE
SEVEN DAY PERIOD?
Yes. It may be postponed whenever (a) the New York Stock Exchange is closed,
except for holidays or weekends, or trading on the New York Stock Exchange is
restricted as determined by the Securities and Exchange Commission; (b) the
Securities and Exchange Commission permits postponement and so orders; or (c)
the Securities and Exchange Commission determines that an emergency exists
making valuation of the amounts or disposal of securities not reasonably
practicable.
MAY I SURRENDER ONCE ANNUITY PAYMENTS HAVE STARTED?
Except with respect to Option 5 (on a variable payout), once Annuity
payments have commenced for an Annuitant, no surrender of a life Annuity
benefit can be made for the purpose of receiving a partial withdrawal or a
lump sum settlement in lieu thereof. Any surrender out of Option 5 will be
subject to contingent deferred sales charges, if applicable.
ARE THERE DIFFERENCES IN THE CONTRACT RELATED TO THE TYPE OF PLAN IN WHICH THE
PARTICIPANT IS ENROLLED?
Annuity Rights are provided under contracts issued only in conjunction with
Deferred Compensation Plans, with respect to DC-I only, entitling the Contract
Owner to have Annuity payments at the rates set forth in the contract at the
time of issue. Such rates will be made applicable to all amounts held in a
Participant's Individual Account during the Annuity Period under such contract
which do not exceed five times the gross Contributions made during the
Accumulation Period with respect to such Participant's Individual Account
thereunder. To the extent that the value of a Participant's Individual Account
at the end of the Accumulation Period is insufficient to fund the Annuity
Rights provided, the Contract Owner shall have the right to apply additional
Contributions to the values held in a Participant's Individual Account in
order to exercise all of the Annuity Rights provided. Any amounts in excess
thereto may be applied by Hartford Life at Annuity rates then being offered by
Hartford Life.
CAN A CONTRACT BE SUSPENDED BY A CONTRACT OWNER?
A contract may be suspended by the Contract Owner by giving written notice
at least 90 days prior to the effective date of such suspension to Hartford
Life at its home office, P.O. Box 2999, Hartford, Connecticut 06104-2999. A
contract will be suspended automatically on its anniversary if the Contract
Owner fails to assent to any modification of a contract, as described under
the caption "Can a contract be modified?" which modifications would have
become effective on or before that anniversary. Upon suspension, Contributions
will continue to be accepted by Hartford Life under the contract, and subject
to the terms thereof, as they are applicable to Participant's Individual
Accounts under the contracts prior to such suspension, but no Contributions
will be accepted on behalf of any new Participant's Individual Accounts.
Annuitants at the time of any suspension will continue to receive their
Annuity payments. The suspension of a contract will not preclude the Contract
Owner's applying existing Participant's Individual Accounts under DC-I or
DC-II, as appropriate, to the purchase of Fixed or Variable Annuity benefits.
HOW DO I ELECT AN ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE AND FORM OF ANNUITY?
The Contract Owner selects an Annuity Commencement Date, usually between a
Participant's 50th and 75th birthdays, and an Annuity Option. The Annuity
Commencement Date may not be deferred beyond a
19
<PAGE>
Participant's 75th birthday or such earlier date as may be required by
applicable law and/or regulation. The Annuity Commencement Date and/or the
Annuity option may be changed from time to time, but any such change must be
made at least 30 days prior to the date on which Annuity payments are
scheduled to begin. Annuity payments will normally be made on the first
business day of each month.
The contract contains five optional annuity forms which may be selected on
either a Fixed or Variable Annuity basis, or a combination thereof. If a
Contract Owner does not elect otherwise, Hartford Life reserves the right to
begin Annuity payments at age 65 under Option 2 with 120 monthly payments
certain. However, Hartford Life will not assume responsibility in determining
or monitoring minimum distributions beginning at age 70 1/2.
When an Annuity is purchased by a Contract Owner for an Annuitant, unless
otherwise specified, DC-I or DC-II Accumulation Unit values will be applied to
provide a Variable Annuity under DC-II.
WHAT IS THE MINIMUM AMOUNT THAT I MAY SELECT FOR AN ANNUITY PAYMENT?
The minimum Annuity payment is $20.00. No election may be made which results
in a first payment of less than $20.00. If at any time Annuity payments are or
become less than $20.00, Hartford Life has the right to change the frequency
of payment to intervals that will result in payments of at least $20.00.
HOW ARE CONTRIBUTIONS MADE TO ESTABLISH MY ANNUITY ACCOUNT?
During the Annuity Period, contract values and any allowable additional
Contributions made by the Contract Owner for the purpose of effecting Annuity
payments under the contract (Deferred Compensation Plans Only) are, based upon
the information received from the Contract Owner, applied to establish
Annuitant's Accounts under the contracts to provide Fixed or Variable Annuity
payments.
At the end of the Accumulation Period with respect to a Participant's
Individual Account there is an automatic transfer of all DC-I values to DC-II
which are used to establish Annuitant's Accounts with respect to DC-II. Such
transfer will be effected by a transfer of ownership of DC-I interests in the
underlying securities to DC-II. The value of a Participant's Individual
Account that is transferred to DC-II hereunder will be without application of
any sales charges or other expenses, with the exception of any applicable
Premium Taxes. DC-II values held during the Accumulation Period under a
contract are retained in DC-II.
In addition to having the right to allocate the value of a Participant's
Individual Account held in the Separate Account during the Accumulation Period
to establish an Annuitant's Account during the Annuity Period, a Deferred
Compensation Plan Contract Owner (with respect to DC-I, only) may make
additional Contributions at the beginning of the Annuity Period for the
purpose of effecting increased Annuity payments for Participants. All such
additional Contributions shall be subject to a deduction for sales expenses,
as well as any applicable Premium Taxes as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

On excess over $100,000................................. 1.00%
</TABLE>
WHAT ARE THE AVAILABLE ANNUITY OPTIONS UNDER THE CONTRACTS?
OPTION 1: LIFE ANNUITY
A Life Annuity is an Annuity payable during the lifetime of the Annuitant
and terminating with the last monthly payment preceding the death of the
Annuitant. Life Annuity options (options 1-4) offer the maximum level of
monthly payments of any of the options since there is no guarantee of a
minimum number of payments nor a provision for a death benefit payable to a
Beneficiary.
It would be possible under this option for an Annuitant to receive only one
Annuity payment if he died prior to the due date of the second Annuity
payment, two if he died before the due date of the third Annuity payment, etc.
*OPTION 2: LIFE ANNUITY WITH 120, 180 OR 240 MONTHLY PAYMENTS CERTAIN
This Annuity option is an Annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of an
Annuitant with the provision that payments will be made for a minimum of 120,
180 or 240 months, as elected. If, at the death of the
20
<PAGE>
Annuitant, payments have been made for less than the minimum elected number of
months, then any remaining guaranteed monthly payments will be paid to the
Beneficiary or Beneficiaries designated unless other provisions will have been
made and approved by Hartford Life.
*OPTION 3: UNIT REFUND LIFE ANNUITY
This Annuity option is an Annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of the
Annuitant terminating with the last payment due prior to the death of the
Annuitant except that an additional payment will be made to the Beneficiary or
Beneficiaries if (a) below exceeds (b) below:
total amount applied under the option
(a) = at the Annuity Commencement Date
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Annuity Unit value at the Annuity Commencement Date
number of Annuity Units represented by number of monthly
(b) = each monthly Annuity Payment made X Annuity Payments made
The amount of the additional payments will be determined by multiplying such
excess by the Annuity Unit value as of the date that proof of death is
received by Hartford Life.
OPTION 4: JOINT AND LAST SURVIVOR ANNUITY
An Annuity payable monthly during the joint lifetime of the Annuitant and a
designated second person, and thereafter during the remaining lifetime of the
survivor, ceasing with the last payment prior to the death of the survivor.
At the Annuitant's death, payments will continue to be made to the
contingent annuitant, if living for the remainder of the contingent
annuitant's life. When the Annuity is purchased, the Annuitant elects what
percentage (50%, 66 2/3%, or 100%) of the monthly Annuity payment will
continue to be paid to the contingent annuitant.
It would be possible under this Option for an Annuitant and designated
second person in the event of the common or simultaneous death of the parties
to receive only one payment in the event of death prior to the due date for
the second payment and so on.
*OPTION 5: PAYMENTS FOR A DESIGNATED PERIOD
An amount payable monthly for the number of years selected. Under the
contracts the minimum number of years is three.
In the event of the Annuitant's death prior to the end of the designated
period, any then remaining balance of proceeds will be paid in one sum to the
Beneficiary of Beneficiaries designated unless other provisions will have been
made and approved by Hartford Life. Option 5 is an option that does not
involve life contingencies and thus no mortality guarantee.
Surrenders are subject to the limitations set forth in the contract and any
applicable contingent deferred sales charges. (See "How are charges under
these contracts made?" page .)
* ON QUALIFIED PLANS, OPTIONS 2, 3 AND 5 ARE AVAILABLE ONLY IF THE GUARANTEE
PAYMENT PERIOD IS LESS THAN THE LIFE EXPECTANCY OF THE ANNUITANT AT THE TIME
THE OPTION BECOMES EFFECTIVE. SUCH LIFE EXPECTANCY SHALL BE COMPUTED ON THE
BASIS OF THE MORTALITY TABLE PRESCRIBED BY THE IRS, OR IF NONE IS PRESCRIBED,
THE MORTALITY TABLE THEN IN USE BY HARTFORD LIFE.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UNDER ANY OF THE ANNUITY OPTIONS ABOVE, EXCEPT OPTION 5 (ON A VARIABLE BASIS),
NO SURRENDERS ARE PERMITTED AFTER ANNUITY PAYMENTS COMMENCE.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW ARE VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS DETERMINED?
The value of the Annuity Unit for each Sub-Account in the Separate Account
for any day is determined by multiplying the value for the preceding day by
the product of (1) the net investment factor (see "How is the Accumulation
Unit value determined?" commencing on page ) for the day for which the
Annuity Unit value is being calculated, and (2) a factor to neutralize the
assumed net investment rate discussed below.
21
<PAGE>
When Annuity payments are to commence, the value of the contract is
determined as the product of the value of the Accumulation Unit credited to
each Sub-Account as of the close of business on the fifth business day
preceding the date the first Annuity payment is due and the number of
Accumulation Units credited to each Sub-Account as of the date the Annuity is
to commence.
The contract contains tables indicating the dollar amount of the first
monthly payment under the optional forms of Annuity for each $1,000 of value
of a Sub-Account under a contract. The first monthly payment varies according
to the form of Annuity selected. The contract contains Annuity tables derived
from the 1983a Individual Annuity Mortality Table with an assumed interest
rate ("A.I.R.") of 4.00% or 5.00% per annum. The total first monthly Annuity
payment is determined by multiplying the value (expressed in thousands of
dollars) of a Sub-Account (less any applicable Premium Taxes) by the amount of
the first monthly payment per $1,000 of value obtained from the tables in the
contracts. With respect to fixed annuities only, the current rate will be
applied if it is higher than the rate under the tables in the contract.
Level Annuity payments would be provided if the net investment rate remained
constant and equal to the A.I.R. In fact, payments will vary up or down in the
proportion that the net investment rate varies up or down from the A.I.R. A
higher assumed interest rate may produce a higher initial payment but more
slowly rising and more rapidly falling subsequent payments than would a lower
interest rate assumption.
The amount of the first monthly Annuity payment, determined as described
above, is divided by the value of an Annuity Unit for the appropriate
Sub-Account as of the close of business on the fifth business day preceding
the day on which the payment is due in order to determine the number of
Annuity Units represented by the first payment. This number of Annuity Units
remains fixed during the Annuity Period, and in each subsequent month the
dollar amount of the Annuity payment is determined by multiplying this fixed
number of Annuity Units by the then current Annuity Unit value.
The Annuity payments will be made on the date selected. The Annuity Unit
value used in calculating the amount of the Annuity payments will be based on
an Annuity Unit value determined as of the close of business on a day not more
than the fifth business day preceding the date of the Annuity payment.
Here is an example of how a variable annuity is determined:

</TABLE>
The above figures are simply to illustrate the calculation of a variable
annuity and have no bearing on the actual historical record of any Separate
Account.
CAN A CONTRACT BE MODIFIED?
The contracts may, subject to any federal and state regulatory restrictions,
be modified at any time by written agreement between the Contract Owner and
Hartford Life. No modification will affect the amount or term of any Annuities
begun prior to the effective date of the modification, unless it is required
to conform the contract to, or give the Contract Owner the benefit of, any
federal or state statutes or any rule or regulation of the U.S. Treasury
Department or Internal Revenue Service.
On or after the fifth anniversary of any contract Hartford Life may change,
from time to time, any or all of the terms of the contracts by giving 90 days
advance written notice to the Contract Owner, except that the Annuity tables,
guaranteed interest rates and the contingent deferred sales charges which are
applicable at the time a Participant's Individual Account is established under
a contract, will continue to be applicable. In addition, the limitations on
the deductions for the Mortality, Expense Risks and Administrative
Undertakings and the Annual Contract Fee will continue to apply in all
Contract Years.
22
<PAGE>
Hartford Life reserves the right to modify the contract, but only if such
modification: (i) is necessary to make the contract or the Separate Account
comply with any law or regulation issued by a governmental agency to which
Hartford Life is subject; or (ii) is necessary to assure continued
qualification of the contract under the Code or other federal or state laws
relating to retirement annuities or annuity contracts; or (iii) is necessary
to reflect a change in the operation of the Separate Account or the
Sub-Account(s); or (iv) provides additional Separate Account options; or (v)
withdraws Separate Account options. In the event of any such modification
Hartford Life will provide notice to the Contract Owner or to the payee(s)
during the Annuity period. Hartford Life may also make appropriate endorsement
in the contract to reflect such modification.
CHARGES UNDER THE CONTRACT
HOW ARE THE CHARGES UNDER THESE CONTRACTS MADE?
No deduction for sales expense is made at the time of allocation of
Contributions to the contracts. A deduction for contingent deferred sales
charges is made if there is any surrender of contract values during the first
12 Participant Contract Years. During the first 6 years thereof, a maximum
deduction of 5% will be made against the full amount of any such surrender.
During the next 2 years thereof, a maximum deduction of 4% will be made
against the full amount of any such surrender. During the next 2 years
thereof, a maximum deduction of 3% will be made against the full amount of any
such surrender. During the next 2 years thereof, a maximum deduction of 2%
will be made against the full amount of any such surrender. Such charges will
in no event ever exceed 8.50% when applied as a percentage against the sum of
all Contributions to a Participant's Individual Account. The amount or term of
the contingent deferred sales charge may be reduced (see "Experience Rating of
Contracts", page ).
In the case of a redemption in which you request a certain dollar amount be
withdrawn, the sales charge is deducted from the amount withdrawn and the
balance is paid to you. Example: You request a total withdrawal, your account
value is $1,000 and the applicable sales load is 5%. Your Sub-Account(s) will
be surrendered by $1,000 and you will receive $950 (i.e., the $1,000 total
withdrawal less the 5% sales charge). This is the method applicable on a full
surrender of your contract. In the case of a partial redemption in which you
request to receive a specified amount, the sales charge will be calculated on
the total amount that must be withdrawn from your Sub-Account(s) in order to
provide you with the amount requested. Example: You request to receive $1,000
and the applicable sales load is 5%. Your Sub-Account(s) will be reduced by
$1,052.63 (i.e., a total withdrawal of $1,052.63 which results in a $52.63
sales charge ($1,052.63 X 5%) and a net amount paid to you of $1,000 as
requested).
Hartford Life reserves the right to limit any increase in the Contributions
made to a Participant's Individual Account under any contract to not more than
three times the total Contributions made on behalf of such Participant during
the initial 12 consecutive months following the Date of Coverage. Increases in
excess of those described will be accepted only with the consent of Hartford
Life and subject to the then current deductions being made under the
contracts.
IS THERE EVER A TIME WHEN THE SALES CHARGES DO NOT APPLY?
No deduction for contingent deferred sales charges will be made on
contracts: (1) in the event of death of a Participant, (2) if the value of a
Participant's Individual Account is paid out under one of the available
Annuity options under the contracts (except that a surrender out of Annuity
Option 5 is subject to sales charges, if applicable) or (3) if on Public
Employee Deferred Compensation Plans only, a Participant in a Plan makes a
financial hardship withdrawal as defined in the Regulations issued by the IRS
with respect to the IRC Section 457 governmental deferred compensation plans.
The Plan of the Employer must also provide for such hardship withdrawals.
WHAT DO THE SALES CHARGES COVER?
The contingent deferred sales charges, when applicable, will be used to
cover expenses relating to the sale and distribution of the contracts,
including commissions paid to any distribution organization and its sales
personnel, the cost of preparing sales literature and other promotional
activities. It is anticipated that
23
<PAGE>
gross commissions paid on the sale of the contracts will not exceed 5% of a
Contribution. To the extent that these charges do not cover such distribution
expenses they will be borne by Hartford Life from its general assets,
including surplus or possible profit from mortality and expense risk charges.
WHAT IS THE MORTALITY, EXPENSE RISK AND ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGE?
Although Variable Annuity payments made under the contracts will vary in
accordance with the investment performance of the underlying Fund shares held
in the Sub-Account(s), the payments will not be affected by (a) Hartford
Life's actual mortality experience among Annuitants before or after retirement
or (b) Hartford Life's actual expenses, including certain administrative
expenses, if greater than the deductions provided for in the contracts because
of the mortality and expense undertakings by Hartford Life.
In providing an expense undertaking with respect to both DC-I and DC-II,
Hartford Life assumes the risk that the deductions for contingent deferred
sales charges, and the Annual Contract Fee under the contracts may be
insufficient to cover the actual future costs.
The mortality undertaking provided by Hartford Life under the contracts,
assuming the selection of one of the forms of life annuities, is to make
monthly Annuity payments (determined in accordance with the annuity tables and
other provisions contained in the contract) to Contract Owners on Annuitants'
Accounts regardless of how long all Annuitants may live and regardless of how
long all Annuitants as a group may live. This undertaking assures a Contract
Owner that neither the longevity of an Annuitant nor an improvement in life
expectancy will have any adverse effect on the monthly Annuity payments the
Employee will receive under the contract. It thus relieves the Contract Owner
from the risk that Participants in the Plan will outlive the funds
accumulated. The mortality undertaking is based on Hartford Life's present
actuarial determination of expected mortality rates among all Annuitants.
If actual experience among Annuitants deviates from Hartford Life's
actuarial determination of expected mortality rates among Annuitants because,
as a group, their longevity is longer than anticipated, Hartford Life must
provide amounts from its general funds to fulfill its contract obligations. In
that event, a loss will fall on Hartford Life. Conversely, if longevity among
Annuitants is lower than anticipated, a gain will result to Hartford Life.
Hartford Life also assumes the liability for payment of the Minimum Death
Benefit provided under the contract.
The administrative undertaking provided by Hartford Life assures the
Contract Owner that administration will be provided throughout the entire life
of the contract.
For assuming these risks Hartford Life presently charges 1.10% (.70% for
mortality, .15% for expense and .25% for administrative undertakings) of the
average daily net assets of DC-I and 1.25% (.85% for mortality, .15% for
expense and .25% for administrative undertakings) of the average daily net
assets of DC-II, as appropriate. The rate charged for mortality, expense and
administrative undertakings under the contracts may be reduced (see
"Experience Rating of Contracts", page ). The rate charged for mortality,
expense and administrative undertakings may be periodically increased by
Hartford Life subject to a maximum of 2.0%, provided, however, that no such
increase will occur unless the Commission shall have first approved such
increase.
EXPERIENCE RATING OF CONTRACTS
Certain of the charges and fees described in this Prospectus may be reduced
("experience rated") for contracts depending on some or all of the following
factors: the total number of Participants, the sum of all Participants'
Individual Account values which are allocated to funds managed by affiliates
of Hartford Life, anticipated present or future expense levels, anticipated
present or future commission levels, and whether or not Hartford Life is an
exclusive annuity Contract provider. Experience rating of a contract may be
discontinued in the event of a change in the applicable factors. Hartford
Life, in its discretion, may experience rate a contact (either prospectively
or retrospectively) by: (1) reducing the amount or term of any applicable
contingent deferred sales charge, (2) reducing the amount of, or waiving, the
Annual Contract Fee, (3) reducing the amount of, or waiving, the Transfer Fee,
(4) reducing the mortality, expense and administrative risk charge, or (5) by
any combination of the above. Reductions in these charges will not be unfairly
discriminatory against any person, including the affected
Contractholders/Participants funded by the Separate Account. Experience rating
credits have been given on certain cases. Participants in Contracts receiving
experience rating credits will receive notification regarding any reduction in
charges or fees.
24
<PAGE>
HOW MUCH ARE THE DEDUCTIONS FOR PREMIUM TAXES ON THESE CONTRACTS?
A deduction is also made for Premium Taxes, if applicable, imposed by a
state or other governmental entity. Certain states impose a Premium Tax,
ranging up to 3.50%. On any contract subject to Premium Taxes, Hartford Life
will pay the taxes when imposed by the applicable taxing authorities. Hartford
Life, at its sole discretion, will deduct the taxes from Contributions when
received, from the proceeds at surrender, or from the amount applied to effect
an Annuity at the time Annuity payments commence.
WHAT CHARGES ARE MADE BY THE FUNDS?
Deductions are made from assets of the Funds to pay for management fees and
the operating expenses of the Funds. A full description of the Funds, their
investment policies and restrictions, risks, charges and expenses and all
other aspects of their operation is contained in the accompanying Prospectus
for the Funds.
ARE THERE ANY OTHER DEDUCTIONS?
Reallocation of monies between or among Sub-Accounts under the contracts may
be subject to a $5.00 charge for each such transfer (see "Experience Rating of
Contracts", page ).
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
AND THE FUNDS
WHAT IS HARTFORD LIFE?
Hartford Life Insurance Company ("Hartford Life") was originally
incorporated under the laws of Massachusetts on June 5, 1902. It was
subsequently redomiciled to Connecticut. It is a stock life insurance company
engaged in the business of writing health and life insurance, both individual
and group, in all states of the United States and the District of Columbia.
The offices of Hartford Life are located in Simsbury, Connecticut; however,
its mailing address is P.O. Box 5085, Hartford, CT 06102-5085.
Hartford Life is ultimately 100% owned by Hartford Fire Insurance Company,
one of the largest multiple lines insurance carriers in the United States. On
December 20, 1995, Hartford Fire Insurance Company became an independent,
publicly traded corporation.
Hartford Life is rated A+ (superior) by A.M. Best and Company, Inc., on the
basis of its financial soundness and operating performance. Hartford Life is
rated AA+ by both Standard & Poor's and Duff and Phelps on the basis of its
claims paying ability.
These ratings do not apply to the performance of the Separate Account.
However, the contractual obligations under this variable annuity are the
general corporate obligations of Hartford Life. These ratings do apply to
Hartford Life's ability to meet its insurance obligations under the contracts.
WHAT ARE THE FUNDS?
Hartford Stock Fund, Inc. was organized on March 11, 1976. The Calvert
Responsibly Invested Balanced Fund (Calvert Responsibly Invested Balanced

ALL FUNDS
The Funds are available only to serve as the underlying investment for the
variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts issued by Hartford
Life.
It is conceivable that in the future it may be disadvantageous for variable
annuity separate accounts and variable life insurance separate accounts to
invest in the Funds simultaneously. Although Hartford Life and the Funds do
not currently foresee any such disadvantages either to variable annuity
Contract Owners or to variable life insurance Policy Owners, the Funds' Board
of Directors intends to monitor events in order to identify any material
conflicts between such Contract Owners and Policy Owners and to determine what
action, if any, should be taken in response thereto. If the Board of Directors
of the Funds were to conclude that separate funds should be established for
variable life and variable annuity separate accounts, the variable annuity
Contract Owners would not bear any expenses attendant to the establishment of
such separate funds, but variable annuity Contract Owners and variable life
insurance Policy Owners would no longer have the economics of scale resulting
from a larger combined fund.
Shares of Calvert Responsibly Invested Balanced Fund, a series of Acacia
Capital Corporation which is unaffiliated with Hartford Life, are offered to
other unaffiliated separate accounts. Hartford Life and the Board of Trustees
of Acacia Capital Corporation intend to monitor events to identify any
material irreconcilable conflicts which may arise and to determine what
action, if any, should be taken in response thereto.
Hartford Life reserves the right, subject to compliance with the law, to
substitute the shares of any other registered investment company for the
shares of any Fund held by the Separate Account. Substitution may occur if
shares of the Fund(s) become unavailable or due to changes in applicable law
or interpretations of law. Current law requires notification to you of any
such substitution and approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Hartford Life also reserves the right, subject to compliance with the law to
offer additional Funds with differing investment objectives.
The U.S. Government Money Market Fund and Advisers Fund Sub-Accounts were
not available under contracts issued prior to May 2, 1983. The Capital
Appreciation Fund Sub-Account was not available under contracts issued prior
to May 1, 1984. The Mortgage Securities Fund Sub-Account was not available
under contracts issued prior to January 15, 1985. The Index Fund Sub-Account
was not available under contracts issued prior to May 1, 1987. The Dividend
and Growth Fund Sub-Account was not available under contracts issued prior to
May 1, 1995. Funds not available prior to the issue date of a contract may be
requested in writing by the Contract Owner.
The Hartford Investment Management Company ("HIMCO") has been serving as
investment manager or adviser to each of the Funds. In addition, Wellington
Management Company ("Wellington Management") has served as sub-investment
adviser to certain of the Funds since August 1984.
HIMCO serves as investment manager for Hartford Advisers, Hartford Capital
Appreciation, Hartford Dividend and Growth, Hartford International
Opportunities and Hartford Stock Funds pursuant to an Investment Management
Agreement between each. Wellington serves as sub-investment adviser to each of
these funds pursuant to a Sub-Investment Advisory Agreement between Wellington
Management and HIMCO on behalf of each fund.
HIMCO serves as the investment adviser to Hartford Bond, Hartford Index,
Hartford Mortgage Securities, Hartford U.S. Government Money Market and HVA
Money Market Funds pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement between these
funds and HIMCO.
The Calvert Asset Management Company serves as investment adviser and United
States Trust Company of Boston serves as sub-investment-adviser to Calvert
Responsibly Invested Balanced Fund.
A full description of the Funds, their investment policies and restrictions,
risks, charges and expenses and all other aspects of their operations is
contained in the accompanying Funds' Prospectus which should be read in
conjunction with this Prospectus before investing, and in the Funds' Statement
of Additional Information which may be ordered from Hartford Life.

DOES HARTFORD LIFE HAVE ANY INTEREST IN THE FUNDS?
As of December 31, 1995, certain Hartford Life group pension contracts held
direct interest in shares as follows:
<TABLE>

</TABLE>
FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE FEDERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES WHICH AFFECT THESE CONTRACTS?
A. GENERAL
SINCE THE TAX LAW IS COMPLEX AND SINCE TAX CONSEQUENCES WILL VARY ACCORDING
TO THE ACTUAL STATUS OF THE CONTRACT OWNER INVOLVED AND THE TYPE OF PLAN UNDER
WHICH THE CONTRACT IS PURCHASED, LEGAL AND TAX ADVICE MAY BE NEEDED BY A
PERSON, EMPLOYER OR OTHER ENTITY CONTEMPLATING THE PURCHASE OF A CONTRACT
DESCRIBED HEREIN.
It should be understood that any detailed description of the federal income
tax consequences regarding the purchase of these contracts cannot be made in
this Prospectus and that special tax rules may be applicable with respect to
certain purchase situations not discussed herein. For detailed information, a
qualified tax adviser should always be consulted. This discussion is based on
Hartford Life's understanding of current federal income tax laws as they are
currently interpreted.
B. HARTFORD LIFE AND DC-I AND DC-II
DC-I is not taxed as a part of Hartford Life. The taxation of DC-I is
governed by Subchapter M of Chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code")
pursuant to an Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") Private Letter Ruling issued
with respect to DC-I. By distributing substantially all of the net income and
realized capital gains of DC-I to Contract Owners no federal income tax
liability will be incurred by DC-I on the income and gain so distributed.
While Hartford Life has no reason to believe that the above referenced Private
Letter Ruling will ever be withdrawn by the IRS, in the event that it is the
taxation of DC-I and DC-II would be identical from the effective date of any
such withdrawal.
DC-II is taxed as part of Hartford Life which is taxed as a life insurance
company in accordance with the Code. Accordingly, DC-II will not be taxed as a
"regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Code. Investment
income and any realized capital gains on the assets of DC-II are reinvested
and are taken into account in determining the value of the Accumulation and
Annuity Units. (See "How is the Accumulation Unit value determined?"
commencing on page .) As a result, such investment income and realized
capital gains are automatically applied to increase reserves under the
contract.
No taxes are due on interest, dividends and short-term or long-term capital
gains earned by DC-II with respect to qualified or non-qualified contracts.
C. INFORMATION REGARDING TAX QUALIFIED PLANS
The tax rules applicable to tax qualified contract owners, including
restrictions on contributions and distributions, taxation of distributions and
tax penalties, vary according to the type of plan as well as the terms and
conditions of the plan itself. Various tax penalties may apply to
contributions in excess of specified limits, to distributions in excess of
specified limits, distributions which do not satisfy certain requirements and
certain other transactions with respect to qualified plans. Accordingly, this
summary provides only general information about the tax rules associated with
use of the Contract by a qualified plan. Contract owners, plan participants
and beneficiaries are cautioned that the rights and benefits of any
28
<PAGE>
person to benefits are controlled by the terms and conditions of the plan
regardless of the terms and conditions of the Contract. Some qualified plans
are subject to distribution and other requirements which are not incorporated
into Hartford Life's administrative procedures. Owners, participants and
beneficiaries are responsible for determining that contributions,
distributions and other transactions comply with applicable law. Because of
the complexity of these rules, owners, participants and beneficiaries are
encouraged to consult their own tax advisors as to specific tax consequences.
1. QUALIFIED PENSION PLANS.
Provisions of the Code permit eligible employers to establish pension or
profit sharing plans (described in Section 401(a) and 401(k), if applicable,
and exempt from taxation under Section 501(a) of the Code), and Simplified
Employee Pension Plans (described in Section 408(k)). Such plans are subject
to limitations on the amount that may be contributed, the persons who may be
eligible and the time when distributions must commence. Corporate employers
intending to use these contracts in connection with such plans should seek
competent advice.
2. TAX SHELTERED ANNUITIES UNDER SECTION 403(B).
Section 403(b) of the Code permits public school employees and employees of
certain types of charitable, educational and scientific organizations
specified in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code to purchase annuity contracts, and,
subject to certain limitations, exclude such contributions from gross income.
Generally, such contributions may not exceed the lesser of $9,500 or 20% of
the employees "includable compensation" for his most recent full year of
employment, subject to other adjustments. Special provisions may allow some
employees to elect a different overall limitation.
Tax-sheltered annuity programs under Section 403(b) are subject to a
PROHIBITION AGAINST DISTRIBUTIONS FROM THE CONTRACT ATTRIBUTABLE TO
CONTRIBUTIONS MADE PURSUANT TO A SALARY REDUCTION AGREEMENT unless such
distribution is made:
(a) after the participating employee attains age 59 1/2;
(b) upon separation from service;
(c) upon death or disability, or
(d) in the case of hardship.
The above restrictions apply to distributions of employee contributions made
after December 31, 1988, earnings on those contributions, and earnings on
amounts attributable to employee contributions held as of December 31, 1988.
They do not apply to distributions of any employer or other after-tax
contributions, employee contributions made on or before December 31, 1988, and
earnings credited to employee contributions before December 31, 1988.
3. DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS UNDER SECTION 457.
Employees and independent contractors performing services for such employers
may contribute on a before tax basis to the Deferred Compensation Plan of
their employer in accordance with the employer's plan and Section 457 of the
Code. Section 457 places limitations on contributions to Deferred Compensation
Plans maintained by a State ("State" means a State, a political sub-division
of a State, and an agency or instrumentality of a State or political
sub-division of a State) or other tax-exempt organization. Generally, the
limitation is 33 1/3% of includable compensation (25% of gross compensation)
or $7,500, whichever is less. The plan may also provide for additional
"catch-up" deferrals during the three taxable years ending before a
Participant attains normal retirement age.
An employee electing to participate in a plan should understand that his
rights and benefits are governed strictly by the terms of the plan, that the
employer is legal owner of any contract issued with respect to the plan and
that deferred amounts will be subject to the claims of the employer's
creditors. The employer as owner of the contract(s) retains all voting and
redemption rights which may accrue to the contract(s) issued with respect to
the plan. The participating employee should look to the terms of his plan for
any charges in regard to participating therein other than those disclosed in
this Prospectus.

Distributions from a Section 457 Deferred Compensation Plan are prohibited
unless made after the participating employee attains the age specified in the
plan, separates from service, dies, becomes permanently and totally disabled
or suffers an unforeseeable financial emergency. Present federal tax law does
not allow tax-free transfers or rollovers for amounts accumulated in a Section
457 plan except for transfers to other Section 457 plans in limited cases.
4. INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES UNDER SECTION 408.
Section 408 of the Code permits eligible individuals to establish individual
retirement programs through the purchase of Individual Retirement Annuities
("IRAs"). IRAs are subject to limitations on the amount that may be
contributed, the contributions that may be deducted from taxable income, the
persons who may be eligible and the time when distributions may commence.
Also, distributions from certain qualified plans may be "rolled-over" on a
tax-deferred basis into an IRA.
5. TAX PENALTIES.
Distributions from retirement plans are generally taxed under Section 72 of
the Code. Under these rules, a portion of each distribution may be excludable
from income. The excludable amount is the portion of the distribution which
bears the same ratio as the after-tax contributions bear to the expected
return.
A. PREMATURE DISTRIBUTION.
Distributions from a qualified plan before the Participant attains age
59 1/2 are generally subject to an additional tax equal to 10% of the taxable
portion of the distribution. The 10% penalty does not apply to distributions
made after the employee's death, on account of disability and distributions in
the form of a life annuity and, except in the case of an IRA, certain
distributions after separation from service at or after age 55 and certain
distributions for eligible medical expenses. A life annuity is defined as a
scheduled series of substantially equal periodic payments for the life or life
expectancy of the Participant (or the joint lives or life expectancies of the
Participant and Beneficiary).
B. MINIMUM DISTRIBUTION TAX.
If the amount distributed is less than the minimum required distribution for
the year, the Participant is subject to a 50% tax on the amount that was not
properly distributed.
An individual's interest in a retirement plan must generally be distributed
or begin to be distributed not later than April 1 of the calendar year in
which the individual attains age 70 1/2 ("required beginning date"). The
required beginning date with respect to certain government plans may be
further deferred. The entire interest of the Participant must be distributed
beginning no later than this required beginning date over a period which may
not extend beyond a maximum of the life expectancy of the Participant and a
designated Beneficiary. Each annual distribution must equal or exceed a
"minimum distribution amount" which is determined by dividing the account
balance by the applicable life expectancy. This account balance is generally
based upon the account value as of the close of business on the last day of
the previous calendar year. In addition, minimum distribution incidental
benefit rules may require a larger annual distribution.
If an individual dies before reaching his or her required beginning date,
the individual's entire interest must generally be distributed within five
years of the individuals death. However, this rule will be deemed satisfied,
if distributions begin before the close of the calendar year following the
individual's death to a designated Beneficiary (or over a period not extending
beyond the life expectancy of the beneficiary). If the Beneficiary is the
individual's surviving spouse, distributions may be delayed until the
individual would have attained age 70 1/2.
If an individual dies after reaching his or her required beginning date or
after distributions have commenced, the individual's interest must generally
be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution in
effect at the time of the individual's death.
C. EXCESS DISTRIBUTION TAX.
If the aggregate distributions from all IRAs and certain other qualified
plans in a calendar year exceed the greater of (i) $150,000, or (ii) $112,500
as indexed for inflation ($155,000 as of January 1, 1996), a penalty tax of
15% is generally imposed on the excess portion of the distribution.
30
<PAGE>
D. WITHHOLDING.
Periodic distributions from a qualified plan lasting for a period of 10 or
more years are generally subject to voluntary income tax withholding. The
recipient of periodic distributions may generally elect not to have
withholding apply or to have income taxes withheld at a different rate by
providing a completed election form. Otherwise, the amount withheld on such
distributions is determined at the rate applicable to wages as if the
recipient were married claiming three exemptions.
Nonperiodic distributions from an IRA are subject to income tax withholding
at a flat 10% rate. The recipient may elect not to have withholding apply.
Nonperiodic distributions from other qualified plans are generally subject
to mandatory income tax withholding at the flat rate of 20% unless such
distributions are:
1) the non-taxable portion of the distribution;
2) required minimum distributions;
3) eligible rollover distributions.
Eligible rollover distributions are direct payments to an IRA or to another
qualified employer plan.
Any distribution from plans described in Section 457 of the Code is subject
to regular wage withholding rules.
D. DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
Section 817 of the Code provides that a variable annuity contract will not
be treated as an annuity contract for any period during which the investments
made by the separate account or underlying fund are not adequately diversified
in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Treasury Department. If a
Contract is not treated as an annuity contract, the Contract Owner will be
subject to income tax on the annual increases in cash value.
The Treasury Department has issued diversification regulations which
generally require, among other things, that no more than 55% of the value of
the total assets of the segregated assets account underlying a variable
contract is represented by any one investment, no more than 70% is represented
by any two investment, no more than 80% is represented by any three
investments, and no more than 90% is represented by any four investments. In
determining whether the diversification standards are met, all securities of
the same issuer, all interests in the same real property project, and all
interests in the same commodity are each treated as a single investment. In
addition, in the case of government securities, each government agency or
instrumentality shall be treated as a separate issuer.
A separate account must be in compliance with the diversification standards
on the last day of each calendar quarter or within 30 days after the quarter
ends. If an insurance company inadvertently fails to meet the diversification
requirements, the company may comply within a reasonable period and avoid the
taxation of contract income on an ongoing basis. However, either the company
or the Contract Owner must agree to pay the tax due for the period during
which the diversification requirements were not met.
Hartford Life monitors the diversification of investments in the separate
accounts and tests for diversification as required by the Code. Hartford Life
intends to administer all contracts subject to the diversification
requirements in a manner that will maintain adequate diversification.
E. OWNERSHIP OF THE ASSETS IN THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
In order for a variable annuity contract to qualify for tax deferral, assets
in the segregated asset accounts supporting the variable contract must be
considered to be owned by the insurance company and not by the variable
contract owner. The IRS has issued several rulings which discuss investor
control. The IRS has ruled that incidents of ownership by the contract owner,
such as the ability to select and control investments in a separate account,
will cause the contract owner to be treated as the owner of the assets for tax
purposes.
Further, in the explanation to the temporary Section 817 diversification
regulations, the Treasury Department noted that the temporary regulations "do
not provide guidance concerning the circumstances in which investor control of
the investments of a segregated asset account may cause the investor, rather
than the insurance company, to be treated as the owner of the assets in the
account." The explanation further
31
<PAGE>
indicates that "the temporary regulations provide that in appropriate cases a
segregated asset account may include multiple sub-accounts, but do not specify
the extent to which policyholders may direct their investments to particular
sub-accounts without being treated as the owners of the underlying assets.
Guidance on this and other issues will be provided in regulations or revenue
rulings under Section 817(d), relating to the definition of variable
contract." The final regulations issued under Section 817 did not provide
guidance regarding investor control, and as of the date of this prospectus, no
other such guidance has been issued. Further, Hartford Life does not know if
or in what form such guidance will be issued. In addition, although
regulations are generally issued with prospective effect, it is possible that
regulations may be issued with retroactive effect. Due to the lack of specific
guidance regarding the issue of investor control, there is necessarily some
uncertainty regarding whether a Contract Owner could be considered the owner
of the assets for tax purposes. Hartford Life reserves the right to modify the
contracts, as necessary, to prevent Contract Owners from being considered the
owners of the assets in the separate accounts.
F. NON-NATURAL PERSONS, CORPORATIONS
The annual increase in the value of the contract is currently includable in
gross income of a non-natural person. There is an exception for annuities held
by structured settlement companies and annuities held by an employer with
respect to a terminated pension plan. A non-natural person which is a
tax-exempt entity for federal tax purposes will not be subject to income tax
as a result of this provision.
G. ANNUITY PURCHASES BY NONRESIDENT ALIENS AND FOREIGN CORPORATIONS
The discussion above provides general information regarding U.S. federal
income tax consequences to annuity purchasers that are U.S. citizens or
residents. Purchasers that are not U.S. citizens or residents will generally
be subject to U.S. federal income tax and withholding on annuity distributions
at a 30% rate, unless a lower treaty rate applies. In addition, purchasers may
be subject to state premium tax, other state and/or municipal taxes, and taxes
that may be imposed by the purchaser's country of citizenship or residence.
Prospective purchasers are advised to consult with a qualified tax advisor
regarding U.S., state, and foreign taxation with respect to an annuity
purchase.
MISCELLANEOUS
WHAT ARE MY VOTING RIGHTS?
Hartford Life shall notify the Contract Owner of any Fund shareholders'
meeting if the shares held for the Contract Owner's accounts may be voted at
such meetings. Hartford Life shall also send proxy materials and a form of
instruction by means of which the Contract Owner can instruct Hartford Life
with respect to the voting of the Fund shares held for the Contract Owner's
account. In connection with the voting of Fund shares held by it, Hartford
Life shall arrange for the handling and tallying of proxies received from
Contract Owners. Hartford Life as such, shall have no right, except as
hereinafter provided, to vote any Fund shares held by it hereunder which may
be registered in its name or the names of its nominees. Hartford Life will,
however, vote the Fund shares held by it in accordance with the instructions
received from the Contract Owners for whose accounts the Fund shares are held.
If a Contract Owner desires to attend any meeting at which shares held for the
Contract Owner's benefit may be voted, the Contract Owner may request Hartford
Life to furnish a proxy or otherwise arrange for the exercise of voting rights
with respect to the Fund shares held for such Contract Owner's account. In the
event that the Contract Owner gives no instructions or leaves the manner of
voting discretionary, Hartford Life will vote such shares of the appropriate
Fund, including any of its own shares, in the same proportion as shares of
that Fund for which instructions have been received.
Every Participant under a contract issued with respect to DC-II who has a
full (100%) vested interest under a group contract, shall receive proxy
material and a form of instruction by means of which Participants may instruct
the Contract Owner with respect to the number of votes attributable to his
individual participation under a group contract.
A Contract Owner or Participant, as appropriate, is entitled to one full or
fractional vote for each full or fractional Accumulation or Annuity Unit
owned. The Contract Owner has voting rights throughout the life of the
contract. The vested Participant has voting rights for as long as
participation in the contract continues. Voting rights attach only to Separate
Account interests.
32
<PAGE>
During the Annuity period under a contract the number of votes will decrease
as the assets held to fund Annuity benefits decrease.

DISTRIBUTION OF CONTRACTS

Underwriter for the securities issued with respect to the Separate Account. HSD
is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hartford Life. The principal business address
of HSD is the same as Hartford Life.
The securities will be sold by salespersons of HSD who represent Hartford Life

Prior to June 26, 1995, the Principal Underwriter for the Separate Account was
Hartford Equity Sales Company, Inc., an NASD member Broker-Dealer.
The offering of the Separate Account contracts is continuous.
ANNUITY PERIOD
A. Annuity Payments
Variable Annuity payments are determined on the basis of (1) a mortality
table set forth in the contracts which reflects the age of the Annuitant
and the type of Annuity payment option selected, and (2) the investment
performance of the investment medium selected. Fixed Annuity payments will
be no less than those calculated at rates based on the annuity tables
contained in the contracts.
The amount of the Annuity payments will not be affected by adverse
mortality experience or by an increase in expenses in excess of the expense
deduction for which provision has been made (see "Charges Under the
Contracts," in the Prospectus).
The Annuitant will be paid the value of a fixed number of Annuity Units
each month. The value of such units and the amounts of the monthly
Variable Annuity payments will, however, reflect investment income
occurring after retirement, and thus the payments will vary with the
investment experience of the Fund shares selected.
Illustration of Calculation of Annuity Unit Value

1. Net Investment Factor for period .000498
2. Adjustment for 4% Assumed Rate of Net Investment Return .999892
<PAGE>

3. 2x(1+1.000000) 1.000390
4. Annuity Unit value, beginning of period .995995
5. Annuity Unit value, end of period (3x4) .996383
B. Electing the Annuity Commencement Date and Form of Annuity
Depending on the Contract involved, the Contract Owner or Participant
selects an Annuity Commencement Date, usually between a Participant's 50th
and 75th birthdays, and an Annuity option. The Annuity Commencement Date
may not be deferred beyond the Participant's 75th birthday. The Annuity
Commencement Date and/or the Annuity option may be changed from time to
time, but any such change must be made at least 30 days prior to the date
on which Annuity payments are scheduled to begin. Annuity payments will be
made on the first business day of each month.
The contracts contain the five optional Annuity forms described below,
which may be selected on either a Fixed or Variable Annuity basis, or a
combination thereof. If a Contract Owner does not elect otherwise,
Hartford Life reserves the right to begin Annuity payments at age 65 under
Option 2 with 120 monthly payments certain.
When an Annuity is purchased for an Annuitant, unless otherwise specified,
DC-I or DC-II Accumulation Unit values will be applied to provide a
Variable Annuity under DC-II.
The minimum Annuity payment is $20. No election may be made which results
in a first payment of less than $20. If at any time Annuity payments are
or become less than $20, Hartford Life has the right to change the
frequency of payment to such intervals as will result in payments of at
least $20.
C. Optional Annuity Forms
OPTION 1: Life Annuity
A life Annuity is an Annuity payable during the lifetime of the Annuitant
and terminating with the last monthly payment preceding the death of the
Annuitant. Life Annuity Options (Options 1-4) offer the maximum level of
monthly payments of any of the options since there is no guarantee of a
minimum number of payments nor a provision for a death benefit payable to a
Beneficiary.
It would be possible under this option for an Annuitant to receive only one
Annuity payment if he died prior to the due date of the second Annuity
payment, two if he died before the due date of the third Annuity payment,
etc.
* OPTION 2: Life Annuity with 120, 180 or 240 Monthly Payments Certain
This Annuity option is an Annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of an
Annuitant with
<PAGE>
-4-
the provision that if, at the death of the Annuitant, payments have been
made for less than 120, 180 or 240 months, as elected, then the present
value as of the date of the Participant's death at the current dollar
amount at the date of death of any remaining guaranteed monthly payments
will be paid in one sum to the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries designated
unless other provisions will have been made and approved by Hartford Life.
Illustration of Annuity Payments
Individual Age 65, Life Annuity
With 120 Payments Certain
-------------------------
1. Net amount applied 13,978.25
2. Initial monthly income per $1,000 of payment applied 5.93
3. Initial monthly payment (1x2/1,000) 82.89
4. Annuity Unit value .953217
5. Number of monthly Annuity Units (3DIVIDED BY4) 86.959
6. Assume Annuity Unit value for second month equal to .963723
7. Second monthly payment (6x5) 83.80
8. Assume Annuity Unit value for third month equal to .964917
9. Third month payment (8x5) 83.91
For the purpose of this illustration, purchase is assumed to have been made
on the 5th business day preceding the first payment date. In determining
the second and subsequent payments the annuity unit value of the 5th
business day preceding the annuity due date is used.
* OPTION 3: Unit Refund Life Annuity
This Annuity option is an Annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of
the Annuitant terminating with the last payment due prior to the death of
the Annuitant except that an additional payment will be made to the
Beneficiary or Beneficiaries if (a) below exceeds (b) below:
total amount applied under the option
at the Annuity Commencement Date
(a) = ____________________________________
Annuity Unit value at the Annuity
Commencement Date
(b) = number of Annuity Units represented number of monthly
by monthly Annuity payment made X Annuity payments made
The amount of the additional payments will be determined by multiplying
such excess by the Annuity Unit value as of the date that proof of death is
received by Hartford Life.
<PAGE>
-5-
For example, if $20,000 were applied to the purchase of an Annuity under
this option, the value of an Annuity Unit was $1.25 on the Annuity
Commencement Date, the number of Annuity Units represented by each monthly
payment was 91.68 (the number applicable to an individual electing this
option to commence at age 65), 60 monthly Annuity payments were made prior
to the date of death, and the value of an Annuity Unit on the date of
receipt of proof of an Annuitant's death was $1.50, the amount paid to the
Beneficiary would be $15,748.80, computed as follows:
$20,000 (91.68 x 60) = 10,499.200
------- -
$1.25
or
16,000.000 - 5,500.800 = 10,499.200
10,499.200 x $1.50 = $15,748.80
OPTION 4: Joint and Last Survivor Annuity
An Annuity payable monthly during the joint lifetime of the Annuitant and a
designated second person, and thereafter during the remaining lifetime of
the survivor, ceasing with the last payment prior to the death of the
survivor.
It would be possible under this Option for an Annuitant and designated
second person in the event of the common or simultaneous death of the
parties to receive only one payment in the event of death prior to the due
date for the second payment and so on.
* OPTION 5: Payments for a Designated Period
An amount payable monthly for the number of years. Under most group
contracts, the minimum number of years is three.
In the event of the Annuitant's death prior to the end of the designated
period, any then remaining balance of proceeds will be paid in one sum to
the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries designated unless other provisions will
have been made and approved by Hartford Life.
Option 5 is an option that does not involve life contingencies and thus no
mortality guarantee.
Surrenders under Option 5 will be subject to the limitations set forth in
the Contract and any applicable contingent deferred sales charges (see "How
do I select an Annuity Commencement Date and Form of Annuity?" in the
Prospectus.)
* On Qualified Plans, Options 2, 3 and 5 are available only if the guaranteed
payment period is less than the life expectancy of the Annuitant at the
time the option becomes effective. Such life expectancy shall be computed
on the basis of the mortality table prescribed by the
<PAGE>
-6-
Internal Revenue Service, or if none is prescribed, the mortality table

YIELD OF THE HVA MONEY MARKET FUND AND U.S. GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND
SUB-ACCOUNTS. As summarized in the Prospectus under the heading "Performance
Related Information," the yield of the Money Market Fund and U.S. Government
Money Market Fund Sub-Accounts for a seven-day period (the "base period") will
be computed by determining the "net change in value" (calculated as set forth
below) of a hypothetical account having a balance of one share at the beginning
of the period, dividing the net change in account value by the value of the
account at the beginning of the base period to obtain the base period return,
and multiplying the base period return by 365/7 with the resulting yield figure
carried to the nearest hundredth of one percent. Net changes in value of a
hypothetical account will include net investment income of the account (accrued
daily dividends as declared by the underlying funds, less daily expense and
contract charges of the account) for the period, but will not include realized
gains or losses or unrealized appreciation or depreciation on the underlying
fund shares.
The Money Market Fund and U.S. Government Money Market Fund Sub-Accounts yield
and effective yield will vary in response to fluctuations in interest rates and
in the expenses of the two Sub-Accounts.
The current yield and effective yield reflect recurring charges on the Separate
Account level, including the maximum Annual Contract Fee.
Money Market Fund Sub-Account
The yield and effective yield for the seven day period ending December 31, 1995
is as follows:
($18 Annual Contract Fee)
Yield 4.11%
Effective Yield 4.19%
U.S. Government Money Market Fund Sub-Account
The yield and effective yield for the sub-account for the seven day period
ending December 31, 1995 is as follows:
($18 Annual Contract Fee)
Yield 3.81%
Effective Yield 3.88%

YIELDS OF HARTFORD BOND FUND AND HARTFORD MORTGAGE SECURITIES FUND SUB-ACCOUNTS.
As summarized in the Prospectus under the heading "Performance Related
Information," yields of these two Sub-Accounts will be computed by annualizing a
recent month's net investment income, divided by a Fund share's net asset value
on the last trading day of that month. Net changes in the value of a
hypothetical account will assume the change in the underlying mutual funds "net
asset value per share" for the same period in addition to the daily expense
charged assessed, at the sub-account level for the respective period. The Bond
Fund and Mortgage Securities Fund Sub-Accounts' yields will vary from time to
time depending upon market conditions and, the composition of the underlying
funds' portfolios. Yield should also be considered relative to changes in the
value of the Sub-Accounts' shares and to the relative risks associated with the
investment objectives and policies of the Bond Fund and Mortgage Securities
Fund.
The yield reflects recurring charges on the Separate Account level, including

Bond Fund Sub-Account
Yield calculations of the Sub-Account used for illustration purposes reflect the
interest earned by the Sub-Account, less applicable asset charges assessed
against a Contract Owner's contract over the base period. The following is the
method used to determine the yield for the 30 day period ended December 31,
1995.
Example:
6
Current Yield Formula for the Sub-Account 2*[((A-B)/(C*D) + 1) - 1]
Where A = Dividends and interest earned during the period.
B = Expenses accrued for the period (net of reimbursements).
C = The average daily number of units outstanding during the period
that were entitled to receive dividends.
D = The maximum offering price per unit on the last day of the period.
Yield = 5.15% (DCI and DCII)
Mortgage Securities Fund Sub-Account
Yield calculations of the Sub-Account used for illustration purposes reflect the
interest earned by the Sub-Account, less applicable asset charges assessed
against a Contract Owner's account over the base period. The following is the
method used to determine the yield for the 30 days period

ended December 31, 1995.
Example:
6
Current Yield Formula for the Sub-Account 2*[((A-B)/(C*D) + 1) - 1]
Where A = Dividends and interest earned during the period.
B = Expenses accrued for the period (net of reimbursements).
C = The average daily number of units outstanding during the period
that were entitled to receive dividends.
D = The maximum offering price per unit on the last day of the period.
Yield = 5.58% (DCI and DCII)
At any time in the future, yields and total return may be higher or lower than
past yields and there can be no assurance that any historical results will
continue.
The method of calculating yields described above for these Sub-Accounts differs
from the method used by the Sub-Accounts prior to May 1, 1988. The denominator
of the fraction used to calculate yield was previously the average unit value
for the period calculated. That denominator will hereafter be the unit value of
the Sub-Accounts on the last trading day of the period calculated.
CALCULATION OF TOTAL RETURN. As summarized in the Prospectus under the heading
"Performance Related Information", total return is a measure of the change in
value of an investment in a Sub-Account over the period covered. The formula
for total return used herein includes three steps: (1) calculating the value of
the hypothetical initial investment of $1,000 as of the end of the period by
multiplying the total number of units owned at the end of the period by the unit
value per unit on the last trading day of the period; (2) assuming redemption at
the end of the period and deducting any applicable contingent deferred sales
charge and (3) dividing this account value for the hypothetical investor by the
initial $1,000 investment and annualizing the result for periods of less than
one year. Total return will be calculated for one year, five years and ten
years or some other relevant periods if a Sub-Account has not been in existence
for at least ten years.
PERFORMANCE COMPARISONS
YIELD AND TOTAL RETURN. Each Sub-Account may from time to time include its
total return in advertisements or in information furnished to present or
prospective shareholders. Each Sub-Account may from time to time include its
yield and total return in advertisements or information furnished to present or
prospective shareholders. Each Sub-Account may from time to time include in
advertisements its total return (and yield in the case of certain Sub-Accounts)
the ranking of those performance figures relative to such figures for groups of
other annuities analyzed by Lipper Analytical Services as having the same
investment objectives.
<PAGE>

The total return and yield may also be used to compare the performance of the
Sub-Accounts against certain widely acknowledged outside standards or indices
for stock and bond market performance. The Standard & Poor's Composite Index of
500 Stocks (the "S&P 500") is a market value-weighted and unmanaged index
showing the changes in the aggregate market value of 500 stocks relative to the
base period 1941-43. The S&P 500 is composed almost entirely of common stocks
of companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange, although the common stocks
of a few companies listed on the American Stock Exchange or traded
over-the-counter are included. The 500 companies represented include 400
industrial, 60 transportation and 40 financial services concerns. The S&P 500
represents about 80% of the market value of all issues traded on the New York
Stock Exchange.
The NASDAQ-OTC Price Index (the "NASDAQ Index") is a market value-weighted and
unmanaged index showing the changes in the aggregate market value of
approximately 3,500 stocks relative to the base measure of 100.00 on February 5,
1971. The NASDAQ Index is composed entirely of common stocks of companies
traded over-the-counter and often through the National Association of Securities
Dealers Automated Quotations ("NASDAQ") system. Only those over-the-counter
stocks having only one market maker or traded on exchanges are excluded.
The Shearson Lehman Government Bond Index (the "SL Government Index") is a
measure of the market value of all public obligations of the U.S. Treasury;
all publicly issued debt of all agencies of the U.S. Government and all
quasi-federal corporations; and all corporate debt guaranteed by the U.S.
Government. Mortgage-backed securities, flower bonds and foreign targeted
issues are not included in the SL Government Index.
The Shearson Lehman Government/Corporate Bond Index (the "SL
Government/Corporate Index") is a measure of the market value of approximately
5,300 bonds with a face value currently in excess of $1.3 trillion. To be
included in the SL Government/Corporate Index, an issue must have amounts
outstanding in excess of $1 million, have at least one year to maturity and be
rated "Baa" or higher ("investment grade") by a nationally recognized rating
agency.
The manner in which total return and yield will be calculated for public use is
described above. The following table summarizes the calculation of total return
and yield for each Sub-Account, where applicable, through December 31, 1995.

DC VARIABLE ACCOUNT-I
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1995
1. ORGANIZATION:
DC Variable Account-I (the Account) is a separate investment account with
Hartford Life Insurance Company (the Company) and is registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as a unit investment trust under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Both the Company and the
Account are subject to supervision and regulation by the Department of
Insurance of the State of Connecticut and the SEC. The Account invests
deposits by variable annuity contractholders of the Company in various
mutual funds (the Funds) as directed by the contractholders.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the
Account, which are in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the investment company industry:
a) SECURITY TRANSACTIONS--Security transactions are recorded on the trade
date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Cost of investments
sold is determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend and capital
gains income are accrued as of the ex-dividend date. Capital gains
income represents dividends from the Funds which are characterized as
capital gains under tax regulations.
b) SECURITY VALUATION--The investment in shares of the Hartford and Calvert
Responsibly Invested Series mutual funds are valued at the closing net
asset value per share as determined by the appropriate Fund as of
December 31, 1995.
c) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES--For Federal income tax purposes, the Account
intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M
of the Internal Revenue Code by distributing substantially all of its
taxable income to variable annuity contract owners and otherwise
complying with the requirements for regulated investment companies.
Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made. For
purposes of determining net realized taxable gains to be distributed,
the capital gains and losses of each Sub-Account within the Account are
combined. Distribution of any net realized capital gains so determined
will be made to the contract owners of the Sub-Account having net
realized capital gains. The cumulative realized losses used to offset
realized capital gains in each Sub-Account will be considered in the
determination of future distributions of realized capital gains to each
Sub-Account.
d) USE OF ESTIMATES--The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of income and expenses during the period. Operating
results in the future could vary from the amounts derived from
management's estimates.
3. ADMINISTRATION OF THE ACCOUNT AND RELATED CHARGES:
a) MORTALITY AND EXPENSE UNDERTAKINGS--The Company, as issuer of variable
annuity contracts, provides the mortality and expense undertakings and,
with respect to the Account, receives a maximum annual fee of up to
1.25% of the Account's average daily net assets.
b) DEDUCTION OF ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE--Annual maintenance fees are
deducted through termination of units of interest from applicable
contract owners' accounts, in accordance with the terms of the
contracts.
4. DIVIDEND AND CAPITAL GAIN DISTRIBUTIONS:
The Board of Directors of the Company declared distributions from net
investment income to contract owners of record on December 31, 1995.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To Hartford Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hartford Life
Insurance Company (a Connecticut corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of
Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company) and subsidiaries as of December
31, 1995 and 1994, and the related consolidated statements of income,
stockholder's equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1995. These consolidated financial statements and the
schedules referred to below are the responsibility of Hartford Life Insurance
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements and schedules 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 consolidated financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated
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
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Hartford Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and
1994, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 1 in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Hartford
Life Insurance Company adopted new accounting standards promulgated by the
Financial Accounting Standards Board, changing its methods of accounting, as of
January 1, 1994, for debt and equity securities.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules listed in
the Index to Consolidated Financial Statements and Schedules are presented for
purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and
are not a required part of the basic consolidated financial statements. These
schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits
of the basic consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly
state in all material respects the financial data required to be set forth
therein in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a
whole.

HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(A) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These consolidated financial statements include Hartford Life Insurance Company
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries ("Hartford Life" or the "Company"), ITT
Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company ("ILA") and ITT Hartford
International Life Reassurance Corporation ("HLRe"), formerly American Skandia
Life Reinsurance Corporation. Hartford Life is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company ("HLA"). Hartford Life is
ultimately owned by Hartford Fire Insurance Company ("Hartford Fire"), which is
ultimately owned by ITT Hartford Group, Inc. ("ITT Hartford"), formerly a
subsidiary of ITT Corporation ("ITT"). On December 19, 1995, ITT Corporation
distributed all of the outstanding shares of ITT Hartford Group to ITT
Corporation Shareholders of record in an action known herein as the
"Distribution". As a result of the Distribution, ITT Hartford became an
independent publicly traded company.
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 revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The
Company offers life, annuity, pension, and disability insurance products.
These products are distributed and marketed by multiple distribution channels
which include broker-dealers, agents and banks, as well as a captive sales
force. Hartford Life conducts business primarily in the United States and is
licensed to write business in all 50 states. The Company is headquartered in
Simsbury, Connecticut and has 3,045 direct employees.
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles which differ in certain material respects from
the accounting practices prescribed or permitted by various insurance
regulatory authorities.
(B) CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
Effective January 1, 1994, Hartford Life adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities". The new standard requires, among other things,
that securities be classified as "held-to-maturity", "available-for-sale" or
"trading" based on Hartford Life's intentions with respect to the ultimate
disposition of the security and its ability to effect those intentions. The
classification determines the appropriate accounting carrying value (cost basis
or fair value) and, in the case of fair value, whether the adjustment impacts
Stockholder's Equity directly or is reflected in the Consolidated Statements of
Income. Investments in equity securities had previously been and continue to
be recorded at fair value with the corresponding impact included in
Stockholder's Equity. Under SFAS No. 115, Hartford Life's fixed maturities
are classified as "available-for-sale" and accordingly, these investments are
reflected at fair value with the corresponding impact included as a component
of Stockholder's Equity designated as "Unrealized loss on investments, net of
tax." As with the underlying investment security, unrealized gains and losses
on derivative financial instruments are considered in determining the fair
value of the portfolios. The impact of adoption was an increase to
Stockholder's Equity of $91. Hartford Life's cash flows were not impacted by
this change in accounting principle.
(C) REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenues for universal life policies and investment products consist of policy
charges for the cost of insurance, policy administration and surrender charges
assessed to policy account balances. Premiums for traditional life insurance
policies are recognized as revenues when they are due from policyholders.
Deferred acquisition costs are amortized using the retrospective deposit method
for universal life and other types of contracts where the payment pattern is
irregular or surrender charges are a significant source of profit and the
prospective deposit method is used where investment margins are the primary
source of profit.
F-6
<PAGE>
(D) FUTURE POLICY BENEFITS AND OTHER POLICYHOLDER FUNDS
Liabilities for future policy benefits are computed by the net level premium
method using interest rate assumptions varying from 3% to 11% and withdrawal,
mortality and morbidity assumptions which vary by plan, year of issue and
policy durations and include a provision for adverse deviation. Other
policyholder funds which represent liabilities for universal life insurance and
investment products reflect policy account balances before applicable surrender
charges.
(E) POLICYHOLDER REALIZED GAINS AND LOSSES
Realized gains and losses on security transactions associated with Hartford
Life's immediate participation guaranteed contracts are excluded from
revenues, since under the terms of the contracts the realized gains and losses
will be credited to policyholders in future years as they are entitled to
receive them.
(F) DEFERRED POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS
Policy acquisition costs, including commissions and certain underwriting
expenses associated with acquiring traditional life insurance products, are
deferred and amortized over the lesser of the estimated or actual contract
life. For universal life insurance and investment products, acquisition costs
are being amortized generally in proportion to the present value of expected
gross profits from surrender charges, investment, mortality and expense
margins.
(G) INVESTMENTS
Hartford Life's investments in fixed maturities include bonds, redeemable
preferred stock and commercial paper which are classified as "available-for-
sale" and accordingly are carried at market value with the after-tax difference
from cost reflected as a component of Stockholder's Equity designated
"Unrealized loss on investments, net of tax". Equity securities, which include
common and non-redeemable preferred stocks, are carried at market value with
the after-tax difference from cost reflected in Stockholder's Equity. Realized
investment gains and losses, after deducting life and pension policyholders'
share, are reported as a component of revenue and are determined on a specific
identification basis.
(H) DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Hartford Life uses a variety of derivative financial instruments including,
swaps, caps, floors, options, forwards and exchange traded financial futures as
part of an overall risk management strategy. These instruments, are used as a
means of hedging exposure to price, foreign currency and/or interest rate risk
on planned investment purchases or existing assets and liabilities. Hartford
Life does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading
purposes. Hartford Life's accounting for derivative financial instruments used
to manage risk is in accordance with the concepts established in SFAS No. 80,
"Accounting for Futures Contracts," SFAS No. 52 , "Foreign Currency
Translation", American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of
Position 86-2, "Accounting for Options" and various Emerging Issues Task Force
pronouncements. Written options are in all cases used in conjunction with other
assets and derivatives as part of an overall risk management strategy.
Derivative instruments are carried at values consistent with the asset or
liability being hedged. Derivatives used to hedge fixed maturities or equities
are carried at fair value with the after-tax difference from cost reflected in
Stockholder's Equity. Derivatives used to hedge other invested assets or
liabilities are carried at cost.
Derivatives, used as part of a risk management strategy, must be designated at
inception as a hedge and measured for effectiveness both at inception and on an
ongoing basis. Hartford Life's minimum correlation threshold for hedge
designation is 80%. If correlation, which is assessed monthly and measured
based on a rolling three month average, falls below 80%, hedge accounting will
be terminated. Derivatives used to create a synthetic asset must meet synthetic
accounting criteria including designation at inception and consistency of terms
between the synthetic and the instrument being replicated. Synthetic
instrument accounting, consistent with industry practice, provides that the
synthetic asset is accounted for like the financial instrument it is intended
to replicate. Derivatives which fail to meet risk management criteria are
marked to market with the impact reflected in the Consolidated Statements
of Income.
Gains or losses on financial futures contracts entered into in anticipation
of the future receipt of product cash flows are deferred and, at the time of
the ultimate purchase, reflected as a basis adjustment to the purchased
asset. Gains or losses on futures used in invested asset risk management are
deferred and adjusted into the basis of the hedged asset when the contract
futures are closed, except for futures used in duration hedging which are
deferred and basis adjusted on a quarterly basis. The basis adjustments are
amortized into investment income over the remaining asset life.
F-7
<PAGE>
Open forward commitment contracts are marked to market through Stockholder's
Equity. Such contracts are recorded at settlement by recording the purchase of
the specified securities at the previously committed price. Gains or losses
resulting from the termination of the forward commitment contracts before the
delivery of the securities are recognized immediately in the Consolidated
Statements of Income as a component of net investment income.
The cost of options entered into as part of a risk management strategy are
basis adjusted to the underlying asset or liability and amortized over the
remaining life of the hedge. Gains or losses on expiration or termination are
adjusted into the basis of the underlying asset or liability and amortized over
the remaining asset life.
Interest rate swaps involve the periodic exchange of payments without the
exchange of underlying principal or notional amounts. Net receipts or payments
are accrued and recognized over the life of the swap agreement as an
adjustment to income. Should the swap be terminated, the gain or loss is
adjusted into the basis of the asset or liability and amortized over the
remaining life. Should the hedged asset be sold or liability terminated without
terminating the swap position, any swap gains or losses are immediately
recognized in earnings. Interest rate swaps purchased in anticipation of an
asset purchase ("anticipatory transaction") are recognized consistent with the
underlying asset components such that the settlement component is recognized in
the Consolidated Statements of Income while the change in market value is
recognized as an unrealized gain or loss.
Premiums paid on purchased floor or cap agreements and the premium received on
issued floor or cap agreements (used for risk management), are adjusted into
the basis of the applicable asset and amortized over the asset life. Gains or
losses on termination of such positions are adjusted into the basis of the
asset or liability and amortized over the remaining asset life. Net payments
are recognized as an adjustment to income or basis adjusted and amortized
depending on the specific hedge strategy.
Forward exchange contracts and foreign currency swaps are accounted for in
accordance with SFAS No. 52.
(I) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Transactions of Hartford Life with its parent and affiliates relate principally
to tax settlements, insurance coverage, rental and service fees and payment of
dividends and capital contributions. In addition, certain affiliated insurance
companies purchased group annuity contracts from Hartford Life to fund pension
costs and claim annuities to settle casualty claims.
On June 30, 1995, the assets of Lyndon Insurance Company ("Lyndon") were
contributed to ILA. As a result, ILA received approximately $365 in fixed
maturities, equity securities and cash, $26 in receivables, $187 of current
tax liability, $20 in deferred tax liability, and $3 of other liabilities.
The excess of assets over liabilities of $181 were recorded as an increase to
paid-in capital.
Substantially all general insurance expenses related to Hartford Life,
including rent expenses, are initially paid by Hartford Fire. Direct expenses
are allocated to Hartford Life using specific identification and indirect
expenses are allocated using other applicable methods.
The rent paid to Hartford Fire for the space occupied by Hartford Life was $3
in 1995, 1994, and 1993 respectively. Hartford Life expects to pay rent of $3
in 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, and 2000, respectively and $57 thereafter, over the
contract life of the lease.
(J) DIVIDEND TO POLICYHOLDERS
Dividends to policyholders primarily represent those amounts paid to corporate
owned life insurance ("COLI") policyholders. These dividend liabilities, which
appear as other policyholder funds on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, are
recorded when approved by the board of directors.
See Note (4) for the related party coinsurance agreements.

</TABLE>
(a) Inverse floaters are variations of CMO's for which the coupon rates
move inversely with an index rate (e.g. LIBOR). The risk to principal is
considered negligible as the underlying collateral for the securities is
guaranteed or sponsored by government agencies. To address the volatility
risk created by the coupon variability, Hartford Life uses a variety of
derivative instruments, primarily interest rate swaps and issued floors.
(b) Includes issued caps $475 with a weighted average strike rate of 8.5%
(ranging from 7.0% to 10.4%) and over 85% mature in 2000 through 2004. Issued
floors totaled $236, have a weighted average strike rate of 8.1% (ranging
from 5.3% to 10.9%) and mature through 2007 with 76% maturing by 2004.
(c) Comprised of purchased floors of $1.8 billion and purchased caps of $1.7
billion. The floors have a weighted average strike price of 5.8% (ranging from
3.7% to 6.8%) and over 85% mature in 1997 through 1999. The caps have a
weighted average strike price of 7.5% (ranging from 4.5% and 10.1%) and over
82% mature in 1997 through 1999.
(d) Over 95% of futures contracts expire before December 31, 1996.
(e) Deferred gains and losses on anticipatory transactions are included in the
carrying value of bond investments in the consolidated balance sheets. At the
time of the ultimate purchase, they are reflected as a basis adjustment to the
purchased asset. At December 31, 1995, there were $5.3 in net deferred losses
for futures, interest rate swaps and purchased options.
(f) The following table summarizes the maturities by notional value of interest
rate swaps outstanding at December 31, 1995 and the related weighted average

In addition to risk management through derivative financial instruments
pertaining to the investment portfolio, interest rate sensitivity related to
certain Company liabilities was altered primarily through interest rate swap
agreements. The notional
F-11
<PAGE>
amount of the liability agreements in which Hartford Life generally pays one
variable rate in exchange for another, was $1.7 billion at December 31, 1995 and
1994 respectively. The weighted average pay rate is 5.9%; the weighted average
receive rate is 6.0% , and these agreements mature at various times through
2001.
(F) CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
Hartford Life has a reinsurance recoverable of $5.6 billion from Mutual Benefit
Life Assurance Corporation (Mutual Benefit). The risk of Mutual Benefit
becoming insolvent is mitigated by the reinsurance agreement's requirement that
the assets be kept in a security trust with Hartford Life as sole beneficiary.
Excluding investments in U.S. government and agencies, Hartford Life has no
other significant concentrations of credit risk.
Included in fixed maturity investments at December 31, 1995 were $39 of
Orange County, California Pension Obligation Bonds, $17 of which were carried
in the general account and $22 which were included in Hartford Life's
guaranteed separate accounts. During 1995 all interest payments due were
received. While Orange County is currently operating under Protection of
Chapter 9 of the Federal Bankruptcy Laws, Hartford Life believes the bonds
are not impaired other than on a temporary basis.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instrument: fair value for fixed maturities and equity
securities approximate those quotations published by applicable stock exchanges
or are received from other reliable sources; policy and mortgage loan carrying
amounts approximate fair value; investments in partnerships and trusts are based
on external market valuations from partnership and trust management; and other
policy claims and benefits payable are determined by estimating future cash
flows discounted at the current market rate.
3. INCOME TAX
Hartford Life is included in ITT Hartford Group's consolidated U.S. Federal
income tax return and remits to (receives from) ITT Hartford Group, Inc. a
current income tax provision (benefit) computed in accordance with the tax
sharing arrangements between its insurance subsidiaries. The effective tax
rate was 32% in 1995 and 1994, and approximates the U.S. statutory tax rate
of 35% in 1993.

--------- ---------
</TABLE>
Prior to the Tax Reform Act of 1984, the Life Insurance Company Income Tax Act
of 1959 permitted the deferral from taxation of a portion of statutory income
under certain circumstances. In these situations, the deferred income was
accumulated in a "Policyholders' Surplus Account" and will be taxable in the
future only under conditions which management considers to be remote; therefore,
no Federal income taxes have been provided on this deferred income. The balance
for tax return purposes of the Policyholders' Surplus Account as of December 31,
1995 was $37.
4. REINSURANCE
Hartford Life cedes insurance to non-affiliated insurers in order to limit its
maximum loss. Such transfer does not relieve Hartford Life of its primary
liability. Hartford Life also assumes insurance from other insurers. Group
life and accident and health insurance business is substantially reinsured to
affiliated companies.
Life insurance net retained premiums were comprised of the following:

Life reinsurance recoveries, which reduced death and other benefits, for the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 approximated $220, $164, and $149,
respectively.
In December 1994, Hartford Life assumed from a third party approximately $500
of corporate owned life insurance reserves on a coinsurance basis. In
December 1995, this block of business was reinsured to HLRe utilizing
modified coinsurance, with the assets and policy liabilities placed in a
separate account. In October 1994, HLRe recaptured approximately $500 of
corporate owned life insurance from a third party reinsurer. Subsequent to
this transaction, Hartford Life and HLRe restructured their coinsurance
agreement from coinsurance to modified coinsurance, with the assets and
policy liabilities placed in the separate account. These transactions did not
have a material impact on consolidated net income.
Also in December 1994, ILA ceded to a third party $1.0 billion in individual
fixed and variable annuities on a modified coinsurance basis. In December 1995,
Hartford Life ceded approximately $1.2 billion in individual variable annuities
on a modified coinsurance basis to a third party. These transactions did not
have a material impact on consolidated net income.
In May 1994, Hartford Life assumed the life insurance policies and the
individual annuities of Pacific Standard with reserves and account values of
approximately $400. Hartford Life received cash and investment grade assets
to support the life insurance and individual annuity contract obligations
assumed.
In November 1993, ILA acquired, through an assumption reinsurance
transaction, substantially all of the individual fixed and variable annuity
business of HLA. As a result of this transaction, the assets and liabilities
of Hartford Life increased approximately $1 billion. The excess of
liabilities assumed over assets received, of $2, was recorded as a decrease
to capital surplus. The remaining $41 in assets and liabilities were
transferred in October 1995. The impact on consolidated net income was not
significant.
In August 1993, Hartford Life received assets of $300 for assuming the group
COLI contract obligations of Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company, through
an assumption reinsurance transaction. Under the terms of the agreement,
Hartford Life coinsured back 75% of the liabilities to Mutual Benefit Life
Insurance Company. All assets supporting Mutual Benefit's reinsurance
liability to Hartford Life are placed in a "security trust", with Hartford
Life as the sole beneficiary. The impact on 1993 consolidated net income was
not significant.
5. PENSION PLANS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
Hartford Life's employees are included in Hartford Fire's noncontributory
defined benefit pension plans. These plans provide pension benefits that are
based on years of service and the employee's compensation during the last ten
years of employment. Hartford Life's funding policy is to contribute annually
an amount between the minimum funding requirements set forth in the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and the maximum amount that can be
deducted for Federal income tax purposes. Generally, pension costs are funded
through the purchase of Hartford Life's group pension contracts. The cost to
Hartford Life was approximately $2, $2, and $3 in 1995, 1994 and 1993,
respectively.
Hartford Life provides certain health care and life insurance benefits for
eligible retired employees. A substantial portion of Hartford Life's employees
may become eligible for these benefits upon retirement. Hartford Life's
contribution for health care benefits will depend on the retiree's date of
retirement and years of service. In addition, the plan has a defined dollar cap
which limits average company contributions. Hartford Life has prefunded a
portion of the health care and life insurance obligations through trust funds
where such prefunding can be accomplished on a tax effective basis.
Postretirement health care and life insurance benefits expense, allocated by
Hartford Fire were immaterial for 1995, 1994, and 1993 respectively.
The assumed rate of future increases in the per capita cost of health care (the
health care trend rate) was 10.1% for 1995, decreasing ratably to 6.0% in the
year 2001. Increasing the health care trend rates by one percent per year would
have an immaterial impact on the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation
and the annual expense. To the extent that the actual experience differs from
the inherent assumptions, the effect will be amortized over the average future
service of the covered employees.

8. SEPARATE ACCOUNTS
Hartford Life maintains separate account assets and liabilities totaling $36.3
billion and $22.8 billion at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively which
are reported at fair value. Separate account assets are segregated from other
investments and investment income and gains and losses accrue directly to the
policyholder. Separate accounts reflect two categories of risk assumption:
non-guaranteed separate accounts totaling $25.9 billion and $14.8 billion at
December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, wherein the policyholder assumes the
investment risk, and guaranteed separate account assets totaling $10.4 billion
and $8.0 billion at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, wherein Hartford
Life contractually guarantees either a minimum return or account value to the
policyholder. Included in the non-guaranteed category are policy loans
totaling $1.7 billion and $0.5 billion at December 31, 1995 and 1994,
respectively. Investment income (including investment gains and losses) and
interest credited to policyholders on separate account assets are not
reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Separate account
management fees, net of minimum guarantees, were $387, $256, and $189, in
1995, 1994, and 1993, respectively.
F-16
<PAGE>
The guaranteed separate accounts include modified guaranteed individual
annuity, and modified guaranteed life insurance. The average credit interest
rate on these contracts is 6.62%. The assets that support these liabilities
were comprised of $10.4 billion in bonds at December 31, 1995. The portfolios
are segregated from other investments and are managed so as to minimize
liquidity and interest rate risk. In order to minimize the risk of
disintermediation associated with early withdrawals, individual annuity and
modified guaranteed life insurance contracts carry a graded surrender charge
as well as a market value adjustment. Additional investment risk is hedged
using a variety of derivatives which totaled $133 million in carrying value
and $2.7 billion in notional amounts at December 31, 1995.
9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In August 1994, Hartford Life renewed a two year note purchase facility
agreement which in certain instances obligates Hartford Life to purchase up to
$100 million in collateralized notes from a third party. Hartford Life is
receiving fees for this commitment. At December 31, 1995, Hartford Life had
not purchased any notes under this agreement.
Under insurance guaranty fund laws in most states, insurers doing business
therein can be assessed up to prescribed limits for policyholder losses
incurred by insolvent companies. The amount of any future assessments on
Hartford Life under these laws cannot be reasonably estimated. Most of these
laws do provide, however, that an assessment may be excused or deferred if it
would threaten an insurer's own financial strength. Additionally, guaranty
fund assessments are used to reduce state premium taxes paid by the Company in
certain states. Hartford Life paid guaranty fund assessments of approximately
$10, $8 and $6 in 1995, 1994, and 1993, respectively.
Hartford Life is involved in various legal actions, some of which involve
claims for substantial amounts. In the opinion of management the ultimate
liability with respect to such lawsuits, as well as other contingencies, is
not considered material in relation to the consolidated financial position of
Hartford Life.

See Exhibit 26.
Item 27. Number of Contract Owners
As of December 31, 1995, there were Contract Owners of qualified
Contracts and Contract Owners of non-qualified Contracts.
Item 28. Indemnification
Under Section 33-320a of the Connecticut General Statutes, the
Registrant must indemnify a director or officer against judgments,
fines, penalties, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses,
including attorneys' fees, for actions brought or threatened to be
brought against him in his capacity as a director or officer when it
is determined by certain disinterested parties that he acted in good
faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the best
interests of the Registrant. In any criminal action or proceeding, it
also must be determined that the director or officer had no
<PAGE>
reason to believe his conduct was unlawful. The director or officer
must also be indemnified when he is successful on the merits in the
defense of a proceeding or in circumstances where a court determines
that he is fairly and reasonably entitled to be indemnified, and the
court approves the amount. In shareholder derivative suits, the
director or officer must be finally adjudged not to have breached his
duty to the Registrant or a court must determine that he is fairly and
reasonably entitled to be indemnified and must approve the amount. In
a claim based upon the director's or officer's purchase or sale of the
Registrant's securities, the director of officer may obtain
indemnification only if a court determines that, in view of all the
circumstances, he is fairly and reasonably entitled to be indemnified,
and then for such amount as the court shall determine.
The foregoing statements are specifically made subject to the detailed
provisions of Section 33-320a.
The directors and officers of Hartford Life and Hartford Securities
Distribution Company, Inc. ("HSD") are covered under a directors and
officers liability insurance policy issued to ITT Hartford Group, Inc.
and its subsidiaries. Such policy will reimburse the Registrant for
any payments that it shall make to directors and officers pursuant to
law and will, subject to certain exclusions contained in the policy,
further pay any other costs, charges and expenses and settlements and
judgments arising from any proceeding involving any director or
officer of the Registrant in his past or present capacity as such, and
for which he may be liable, except as to any liabilities arising from
acts that are deemed to be uninsurable.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the
Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has
been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question 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.

PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT, dated as of the June 26, 1995, made by and between HARTFORD LIFE
INSURANCE COMPANY ("HLIC" or the "Sponsor"), a corporation organized and
existing under the laws of the State of Connecticut, and HARTFORD SECURITIES
DISTRIBUTION COMPANY, INC. ("HSD"), a corporation organized and existing under
the laws of the State of Connecticut,
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of HLIC has made provision for the establishment
of separate accounts within HLIC in accordance with the laws of the State of
Connecticut, which separate accounts were organized and are established and
registered as unit investment trust type investment companies with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940
("1940 Act"), as amended, and which are designated Hartford Life Insurance
Company DC Variable Account -I, Hartford Life Insurance Company Separate Account
Two (DC Variable Account-II), Hartford Life Insurance Company Separate Account
Two (Variable Account A), Hartford Life Insurance Company Separate Account Two
(QP Variable Account), and Hartford Life Insurance Company Separate Account Two
(NQ Variable Account), (referred to collectively as the "Separate Accounts");
and
WHEREAS, HSD offers to the public a certain Group Variable Annuity Contracts
(the "Contract") issued by HLIC with respect to the UIT units of interest
thereunder which are registered under the Securities Act of 1933 ("1933 Act"),
as amended; and
WHEREAS, HSD has previously agreed to act as distributor in connection with
offers and sales of the Contract under the terms and conditions set forth in
this Principal Underwriter Agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements made herein, HLIC and
HSD agree as follows:
I.
HSD'S DUTIES
1. HSD, as successor principal underwriter to Hartford Equity Sales Company,
Inc. for the Contract, will use its best efforts to effect offers and sales
of the Contract through broker-dealers that are members of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and whose registered
representatives are duly licensed as insurance agents of HLIC. HSD is
responsible for compliance with all applicable requirements of the 1933
Act, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("1934 Act"), as
amended, and the 1940 Act, as amended, and the rules and regulations
relating to the sales and distribution of the Contract, the need for which
arises out of its duties as principal underwriter of said Contract and
relating to the creation of the UIT.
<PAGE>
2. HSD agrees that it will not use any prospectus, sales literature, or any
other printed matter or material or offer for sale or sell the Contract if
any of the foregoing in any way represent the duties, obligations, or
liabilities of HLIC as being greater than, or different from, such duties,
obligations and liabilities as are set forth in this Agreement, as it may
be amended from time to time.
3. HSD agrees that it will utilize the then currently effective prospectus
relating to the UIT's Contracts in connection with its selling efforts.
As to the other types of sales materials, HSD agrees that it will use only
sales materials which conform to the requirements of federal and state
insurance laws and regulations and which have been filed, where necessary,
with the appropriate regulatory authorities.
4. HSD agrees that it or its duly designated agent shall maintain records of
the name and address of, and the securities issued by the UIT and held by,
every holder of any security issued pursuant to this Agreement, as required
by the Section 26(a)(4) of the 1940 Act, as amended.
5. HSD's services pursuant to this Agreement shall not be deemed to be
exclusive, and it may render similar services and act as an underwriter,
distributor, or dealer for other investment companies in the offering of
their shares.
6. In the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or
reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder on the part of
HSD, HSD shall not be subject to liability under a Contract for any act or
omission in the course, or connected with, rendering services hereunder.
II.
1. The UIT reserves the right at any time to suspend or limit the public
offering of the Contracts upon 30 days' written notice to HSD, except where
the notice period may be shortened because of legal action taken by any
regulatory agency.
2. The UIT agrees to advice HSD immediately:
(a) Of any request by the Securities and Exchange Commission for amendment
of its 1933 Act registration statement or for additional information;
(b) Of the issuance by the Securities and Exchange Commission of any stop
order suspending the effectiveness of the 1933 Act registration
statement relating to units of interest issued with respect to the UIT
or of the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose;
<PAGE>
(c) Of the happening of any material event, if known, which makes untrue
any statement in said 1933 Act registration statement or which
requires a change therein in order to make any statement therein not
misleading.
HLIC will furnish to HSD such information with respect to the UIT and the
Contracts in such form and signed by such of its officers and directors and
HSD may reasonably request and will warrant that the statements therein
contained when so signed will be true and correct. HLIC will also furnish,
from time to time, such additional information regarding the UIT's
financial condition as HSD may reasonably request.
III.
COMPENSATION
In accordance with an Expense Reimbursement Agreement between HLIC and HSD, HSD
is obligated to reimburse HSD for all operating expenses associated with the
services provided on behalf of the UIT under this Principal Underwriter
Agreement. No additional compensation is payable in excess of that required
under the Expense Reimbursement Agreement.
IV.
RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL OF PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER
HSD may resign as a Principal Underwriter hereunder, upon 120 days' prior
written notice to HLIC. However, such resignation shall not become effective
until either the UIT has been completely liquidated and the proceeds of the
liquidation distributed through HLIC to the Contract owners or a successor
Principal Underwriter has been designated and has accepted its duties.
V.

implement reasonable procedures for periodic inspection and
supervision of sales practices of its Registered Representatives.

Representative of Broker-Dealer, is disqualified for continued
registration or has their registration suspended by the NASD or
otherwise fails to meet the rules and standards imposed by Broker-
Dealer, Broker-Dealer shall immediately notify such Registered
Representative that he or she is no longer authorized to solicit
applications, on behalf of the Companies, for the sale of Registered
Products. Broker-Dealer shall immediately notify Distributor of

applicable state and federal laws. Broker-Dealer shall be notified
by Companies or Distributor of the availability of the Registered
Products in each state.

comply with the prospectus delivery requirements under the
Securities Act of 1933. In addition, Broker-Dealer shall ensure

reasonable grounds to believe that the

Practice. Broker-Dealer shall ensure that each application
obtained by its Registered Representatives shall bear evidence of

Companies for any reason return any premium on a Registered Product
which was solicited by a Registered Representative of Broker-Dealer.
(h) PREMIUM COLLECTION
Broker-Dealer only has the authority to collect initial premiums
unless specifically set forth in the applicable commission schedule.
Unless previously authorized by Distributor, neither Broker-Dealer

termination. No further commissions or other compensation shall
thereafter be payable.
(c) COMPENSATION PAYABLE TO AFFILIATES

contractually affiliated insurance agency, a wholly-owned life
agency affiliate of Broker-Dealer, or a Registered Representative or

EXHIBIT B
In accordance with Section V.(c) of the Broker-Dealer-Dealer Sales and
Supervision Agreement, no compensation is payable unless Broker-Dealer and
Registered Representative have first complied with all applicable state
insurance laws, rules and regulations. Distributor must ensure that any Broker-
Dealer with whom Distributor intends to enter into an Agreement and any
Registered Representatives meet the licensing and registration requirements of
the state(s) Broker-Dealer operates in and the NASD.
Companies are required by the Insurance Department in all 50 states to pay
compensation only to individuals and entities that are properly insurance
licensed and appointed. For registered products, Distributor must also comply
with NASD regulations that require Distributor to pay compensation to an NASD
registered Broker-Dealer. Distributor must comply with both state and NASD
requirements.
Distributor requires confirmation that Broker-Dealer holds current state
insurance licenses or markets insurance products through a contractual affiliate
or wholly owned life agency, which is properly insurance licensed. If Broker-
Dealer is properly state licensed then compensation may be paid to Broker-Dealer
in compliance with both state and NASD requirements.
If Broker-Dealer is not state insurance licensed and relies on the licensing of
a contractual affiliate or wholly owned life agency, the SEC has issued a number
of letters indicating that, under specific limited circumstances, it will take
"no action" against insurers (Distributor) paying compensation on registered
products to Broker-Dealer's contractual affiliate or wholly owned life agency.
At the request of Broker-Dealer, Distributor will provide copies of several of
these letters as well as a summary of their requirements.
If Broker-Dealer intends to rely on one of these "no-action" letters, legal
counsel for Broker-Dealer must confirm to Distributor in writing that all of the
circumstances of any one of the SEC no-action letters are applicable. Broker-
Dealer's counsel must summarize each point upon which the no-action relief was
granted and represent that Broker-Dealer's method of operation is identical or
meets the same criteria. Broker-Dealer's counsel must also confirm that, to the
best of counsel's knowledge, the SEC has not rescinded or modified its no-action
position since the letter was released.
The Broker-Dealer Sales and Supervision Agreement will not be finalized and no
new applications for registered products will be accepted or no new compensation
will be payable unless the appropriate proof of state licensing or no-action
relief is confirmed. In addition to a letter from Broker-Dealer's counsel,
copies of the following documentation is required:
-- life insurance licenses for all states in which Broker-Dealer holds
these licenses and intends to operate and/or;
-- life insurance licenses for any contractual affiliate or wholly owned
life agency; and
-- the SEC No-Action Letter that will be relied upon.
If you have any questions regarding these matters, please contact your Life
Licensing and Contracting representative.

VALUATION
PROVISIONS NET CONTRIBUTIONS
The net contribution to a Participant's Individual Account is
equal to the total contributions made on behalf of that
Participant less any applicable premium taxes.
The net contribution for the General Account or Separate Account
(determined in occordance with the Account allocation percentages
elected) is applied to provide General Account values or Separate
Account Accumulation Units. The number of Accumulation Units
credited to each variable account is determined by dividing the
net contribution for that account by the dollar value of one
Accumulation Unit next computed after the receipt of the
contribution by the Company.
The Company may at its option determine the value of the General
Account portion of the Contract by accumulating the net
contributions on the basis of actual cash value or through the
use of General Account Accumulation Units. In applying the
actual cash value approach, the Company will credit such net
contributions with the applicable rates of interest set forth on
Page 3, which shall be compounded annually.
Distributed earnings with respect to the underlying securities
will be credited to Contract Owners by increasing the value of
units of interest held under this contract. Contract
<PAGE>
VALUATION
PROVISIONS
(Continued) Owners owning DC-1 interest only may, however, elect to receive
such distributed earnings in cash. If such an election is made,
a sufficient number of Accumulation Units under this contract
will be surrendered to provide for the cash payment of any such
distributed earnings to the Contract Owner.
The number of Accumulation Units so determined will not be
affected by any subsequent change in the value of Accumulation
Units. The Accumulation Unit value in the Separate Account may
decrease or increase from day to day as specified below.
NET INVESTMENT RATE AND NET INVESTMENT FACTOR
The General Account net investment rate applicable to a
Participant's individual Account for any day is guaranteed to be
at least equivalent to the rate as shown on Page 2.
The net investment rate for the Separate Account for any day is
equal to the gross investment rate for each Account in the
Separate Account expressed in decimal form to six places, less
applicable deductions by the Company each year for the expense,
mortality, and administrative undertakings as set forth on Page
3. The gross investment rate for an account is (a) its
investment income for the day plus its capital gains and minus
its capital losses, whether realized or unrealized, and less a
deduction for any applicable taxes arising from the income and
the realized and unrealized capital gains attributable to that
Account, divided by (b) the value of that Account on the previous
day.
The net investment factor for each Account is the sum of 1.00000
plus the net investment rate for that account.
SEGREGATION OF SEPARATE ACCOUNT ASSETS
That portion of the assets of the Separate Account equal to the
reserves and other control liabilities of the Separate Account
shall not be chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other
business the Company may conduct.
ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE
The value of an Accumulation Unit for each Account of the
Separate Account was fixed at $1 each on the date the Account was
initially established. The value of the respective Accumulation
Units for any subsequent day is determined by multiplying the
Accumulation Unit value for the preceding day by the net
investment factor for that Account for the current day.
ANNUITY UNIT VALUES DURING THE ANNUITY PERIOD
The value of an Annuity Unit for each Account in the Separate
Account was fixed at $1 each on the date the Account was
initially established and for any day thereafter is determined by
multiplying the value of the Annuity Unit for that Account on the
preceding day by the product of (a) 0.999892 and (b) the net
investment factor for that Account of the Separate Account for
the day for which the annuity value is being calculated.
ANNUAL POLICY FEE
During each year that this contract is in force prior to the
Annuity Commencement Date, an Annual Policy Fee, as set forth on
Page 3, will be deducted from each Participant's Individual
Account on the last day of the Participant's Contract Year or on
the date of
<PAGE>
surrender of a Participant's Individual Account under this
contract, if earlier. The Fee will be charged against the value
of a Participant's Individual Account at the end of each
Participant's Contract Year by reducing the value or number of
Accumulation Units held on that date on a pro-rata basis with
respect to each active Account under a Participant's Individual
Account.
TERMINATION TERMINATION OF A PARTICIPANT'S INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNT
PROVISIONS
On termination of Contributions on behalf of a Participant prior
to the specified Annuity Commencement Date, the Participant will
notify the Company as to the manner in which the then value of
the Participant's Individual Account is to be disbursed or
applied in accordance with the terms of this contract.
The termination value of a Participant's Individual Account for
any day prior to the Annuity Commencement Date is equal to the
value of the Participant's Individual Account on that day, less:
(a) any applicable premium taxes not previously deducted;
and
(b) the Annual Policy Fee as described on Page 3, and
(c) any applicable Contingent Deferred Sales Charges as set
forth on page 3.
The termination value of the portion of the Participant's
Individual Account in the Separate Account may decrease or
increase from day to day.
PARTIAL SURRENDER OF GENERAL ACCOUNT VALUES
The Company has the absolute right to deny any request for a
partial surrender of General Account values in the Active Life
Fund under this contract when the cumulative requests for partial
surrenders in any Contract Year would exceed one sixth (1/6th) of
the General Account values held in such Active Life Fund on the
preceding Contract Anniversary.
FULL SURRENDER OF GENERAL ACCOUNT VALUES
The Company has the absolute right to pay any requested full
surrender of General Account values in six equal installments,
plus any interest due, annually over a period of five (5) years.
Upon acceptance by the Company of a request for a full surrender
of General Account values such General Account values in the
Active Life Fund will be credited with interest at the rate of
four percent (4%) per annum from the date of acceptance of such
request. The Company shall pay the first installment (1/6th of
the value) upon acceptance of the request for a full surrender
with the remaining installments, plus interest, on each
successive anniversary of such request until the sixth and final
payment has been made.
TRANSFER OR RE-ALLOCATION OF CONTRACT VALUES WITHIN THE CONTRACT
Variable contract values may be re-allocated between accounts
within the Separate Account and transferred to the General
Account at any time. A Transfer Fee, as described on Page 3,
shall be charged against each such transfer which takes place
within each Participant's Individual Account.
General Account values may be transferred to an account in the
Separate Account subject
<PAGE>
TERMINATION
PROVISIONS
(Continued)
to the absolute right of the Company to limit any such transfer,
on a non-cumulative basis, in any Participants' Contract Year to
one sixth (1/6th) of the General Account Value of a Participant's
Individual Account in any Participant's Contract Year. Any such
transfer shall be subject to the Transfer Fee described on Page
3.
TERMINATION AFTER THE ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE
An annuity effected under this contract may not be surrendered
for its termination value after the commencement of annuity
payments.
PAYMENT OF TERMINATION VALUE
When all or any part of the Separate Account termination value of
a Participant's Individual Account is taken by the Participant in
the form of a cash settlement, payment will be made within seven
(7) days following the day the request is received, except as the
Company may be permitted to defer payment under the Investment
Company Act of 1940.
ACTIVE LIFE FUND
An Active Life Fund will be maintained by the Company with
respect to this contract. At all times it will consist of the
sum of the values of all Participant's Individual Accounts.
SETTLEMENT
PROVISIONS ADDITIONAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANNUITANT'S ACCOUNTS
The Contract Owner may make additional contributions at the
beginning of the Annuity Period for the purpose of effecting
increased annuity payments. All such additional contributions

Up to and including $50,000 3.50%
More than $50,000 and up to and including $100,000 2.00%
More than $100,000 1.00%
A deduction will be made as an asset charge against the average
daily net assets of DC-11 for provision of the mortality, expense
and administrative undertakings of the Company in the same manner
and amount as provided for in DC-1 (see Deductions for "Mortality
Expense and Administrative Undertakings", page 3).
ANNUITY RIGHTS
"Annuity Rights" shall be provided under the contract entitling
the Contract Owner to have annuity payments made at the rates set
forth in this contract. Such rates will be made applicable to
all amounts held in a Participant's Individual Account during the
Accumulation Period, including any repayments of partial
withdrawals which do not exceed five times the gross
contributions made during the Accumulation Period with
<PAGE>
SETTLEMENT
PROVISIONS
(Continued)
respect to such Participant's Individual Account. To the extent
that the value of a Participant's Individual Account at the end
of the Accumulation Period is insufficient to fund the Annuity
Rights provided, the Contract Owner shall have the right to apply
any additional contributions, as described above, to the values
held in a Participant's Individual Account in order to exercise
all of the Annuity Rights provided herein. Any amounts in excess
thereof may be applied at annuity rates then being offered by the
Company.
ELECTION OF ANNUITY OPTION
The Annuity Commencement Date may be the first day of any month
before or including the month of a Participant's 75th birthday,
or such earlier date as applicable laws shall prescribe, but in
the absence of a written election to the contrary, the Annuity
Commencement Date shall be the first day of the month coincident
with or next following the Participant's 65th birthday.
Provision is made for both variable and fixed dollar annuity
payments.
The Contract Owner may elect to have the value of the
Participant's Individual Account applied on the Annuity
Commencement Date under either one of the annuity options
described below, but in the absence of such election the value of
the Participant's Individual Account will be applied on the
Annuity Commencement Date under the Second Option to provide a
life annuity with 120 monthly payments certain. The Separate
Account value of the Participant's Individual Account is
determined on the basis of the Accumulation Unit value of the
fifth business day preceding the date annuity payments commence.
Election of any of these options, including any optional Annuity
Commencement Date, must be made by notice in writing to the
Office of the Company in Hartford, Connecticut at least 30 days
prior to the date such election is to become effective.
DATE OF PAYMENT- The first payment under any option shall be made
immediately upon arrival of claim for settlement or on any other
specified date, the subsequent payments shall be made
periodically in accordance with the manner of payment elected on
the first business day of the month in which a payment is due.
The Contract Owner, after the death of a Participant, may elect
in lieu of payment in one sum, that any amount or part thereof
due by the Company under this contract to the Contract Owner be
applied under any of the options described below. Such election
must be made within one year after the death of the Participant
by written notice to the Office of the Company in Hartford,
Connecticut.
ALLOCATION OF ANNUITY
At the time election of one of the annuity options is made, the
Contract Owner, may further elect to have the value of the
Participant's Individual Account applied to provide a variable
annuity, a fixed dollar annuity or a combination of both.
VARIABLE ANNUITY - A variable annuity is an annuity with payments
decreasing or increasing in amount in accordance with the net
investment result of the Account or Accounts in the Separate
Account as described in "Valuation Provisions," commencing on
Page 9. After the first monthly payment for variable annuity has
been determined in
<PAGE>
SETTLEMENT
PROVISIONS
(Continued)
accordance with the provisions of this contract, a number of
Annuity Units is determined by dividing that first monthly
payment by the Appropriate Annuity Unit value o the effective
date of the annuity payments. Once variable annuity payments
have begun, the number of Annuity Units remains fixed. The
method of calculating the Annuity Unit value is described under
"Valuation Provisions."
The dollar amount of the second and subsequent variable annuity
payments is not predetermined and may decrease of increase from
month to month. The actual amount of each variable annuity
payment after the first is determeined by multiplying the number
of Annuity Units by the appropriate Annuity Unit value for each
account as described in the Valuation Provisions, for the fifth
business day preceding the date the annuity payment is due.
MORTALITY, EXPENSE AND ADMINISTRATIVE UNDERTAKING
The Company guarantees that the dollar amount of variable annuity
payments will not be adversely affected by variations in the
actual expenses incurred in providing and administering this
contract, or in the actual mortality experience of payees from
the mortality assumption, including any age adjustments, used in
determining the first monthly payment.
FIXED DOLLAR ANNUITY - A fixed dollar annuity is an annuity with
payments which remain fixed as to dollar amount throughout the
payment period. Although fixed dollar annuity payments may never
be less than the first monthly payment, each payment after the
first may be increased as a result of excess interest credits
declared by the Directors of the Company.
DEATH OF A PARTICIPANT OR BENEFICIARY
In the event a Participant dies before his Annuity Commencement
Date, the Contract Owner will receive the value of the
Participant's Individual Account on the date of receipt of due
proof of death at the Office of the Company in Hartford,
Connecticut, except that if upon death prior to the Annuity
Commencement Date the Participant had not attained his 65th
birthday, the Contract Owner will receive the greater of the then
value of the Participant's Individual Account or 100% of all
contributions made on behalf of a Participant reduced by the
dollar amount of any partial terminations not repaid. The death
benefit may be taken in one sum or under any of the settlement
options available in the Company's individual variable annuities
then being issued and will be paid to the Contract Owner or the
beneficiary designated by the Contract Owner.
When payment is taken in one sum, a variable payment will be made
within 7 days after the date due proof of death is received,
except as the company may be permitted to defer such payment
under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
In the event of the death of the Annuitant while receiving
annuity payments, the present values at the current dollar amount
on the date of death of any remaining guaranteed number of
payments, will be paid in one sum to the beneficiary designated
by the Contract Owner unless other provisions shall have been
made and approved by the Company. In the case of the Separate
Account, calculations for such present value of the guaranteed
number of payments remaining will be based on assumed net
investment rate of 4% per annum. In the case of the General
Account the net investment rate assumed
<PAGE>
SETTLEMENT
PROVISIONS
(Continued)
will be the rate that is used by the Company to determine the
amount of each certain payment. The Annuity Unit value on the
date of receipt of due proof of death shall be used for the
purpose of determining such present value.
