As you have been advised, all MBL Life separate accounts

the accounts, will be terminated on or about June 25, 1999 (the
"Termination Date").
Effective as of the close of business on April 30, 1999, the
Account will close to new deposits, including deposits under
salary deduction plans. No transfers between the Account and MBL
Variable Contract Account-7 will be accepted. Contract holders
and group participants may redeem any or all of their Account
units at any time through the Termination Date, subject to the
redemption procedures described in the Account's prospectus.
Any contracts still with MBL Life on the Termination Date will be
terminated. Contract holders and group participants will be
provided with adequate notice and disclosure regarding the
termination of the Account. During the period leading up to the
Termination Date, certain contract holders and group participants
will be given the opportunity to exchange, on a tax-free basis,
their MBL Life contracts for annuity contracts issued by other
insurance companies or for other applicable tax-deferred
investment vehicles. Contract holders and group participants may
also have the option of redeeming the value of their contracts in
accordance with Internal Revenue Service guidelines. Contract
holders and group participants may incur a tax liability and
should consult with their tax advisors regarding the implications
associated with the exchange or redemption of a contract.
