                                  INTRODUCTION
 
    This prospectus relates to Contracts issued by Security First which are
group fixed and variable annuity contracts previously issued by Capitol Life
Separate Account A and The Capitol Life Insurance Company and assumed by
Security First. Because the Variable Annuity benefits provided under these
Contracts are based upon the changing values of mutual funds, where the
investment risk is borne by the Owner or Participant, they are securities under
federal law and are accordingly registered under the Securities Act of 1933.
 
                           SYNOPSIS OF THE CONTRACTS
 
   
    Under the Contracts Purchase Payments will be made to Security First until a
specific date, after which Annuity benefits become payable. The minimum monthly
Purchase Payment is $20, with an annual minimum of $240. State and municipal
premium taxes, if applicable, may be deducted from each Purchase Payment as
received, from the Participant's General Account values at the time that a
transfer of amounts to the Separate Account is elected, or from the
Participant's Account at the time Annuity payments commence. However, no such
premium taxes are presently being deducted and, until further notice, such
premium taxes, which range from 0% to 3.5%, will be absorbed by Security First.
(See "Premium Taxes," page 11.)
    
 
    Purchase Payments made under the Contracts are allocated initially to
Security First's General Account to provide Fixed Annuity benefits. Thereafter,
the Participant may elect to transfer a portion of the resulting General Account
values to the Separate Account to provide the Variable Annuity benefits
described herein subject to certain limitations. (See "The Separate Account,"
page 10.) All or a portion of payments received by Security First, together with
or following a valid written election by the Participant subject to certain
limitations, may be immediately transferred from the General Account to the
Separate Account. The minimum amount of any such immediate transfer is $20.
Except in the case of Contracts issued to certain state and local governmental
units pursuant to section 457 of the Code, up to 48% of the value of
Accumulation Units provided by payments received prior to the receipt by
Security First of a Participant's written election, subject to certain
limitations, may be transferred to the Separate Account in equal monthly
installments of not less than $50 each over a period of at least 48 months from
the date of election. However, no such installment transfers are permitted with
respect to General Account values acquired by a particular payment where any
part of such values has already been transferred to the Separate Account as the
result of a prior election. In all cases, amounts which have been transferred
from the General Account to the Separate Account may not be transferred back to
the General Account except to provide immediate Fixed Annuity benefits.
 
    Each transfer from the General Account to the Separate Account is treated as
a surrender from the General Account and is subject to a refundable sales charge
which varies in amount from 0% to 7%, depending on the length of time the
amounts to be transferred have remained in the General Account. This charge will
be restored, in whole or in part, as an Annuity Bonus when Annuity payments
begin under the Contract.
 
   
    Pursuant to the Participant's designation, amounts transferred to the
Separate Account are invested at a net asset value in Accumulation Units of one
or more of five Series of the Separate Account, each of which consists of the
shares of a different Fund. The five Funds which constitute the underlying
investment media for the Contracts offered by this prospectus are the T. Rowe
Price Bond Series of Security First Trust ("T. Rowe Price Bond Series"), the T.
Rowe Price Growth and Income Series of Security First Trust ("T. Rowe Price
Growth and Income Series"), T. Rowe Price Growth Stock Fund, Inc. ("Growth Stock
Fund"), T. Rowe Price Prime Reserve Fund, Inc. ("Prime Reserve Fund"), and the
T. Rowe Price International Stock Fund, Inc. ("International Stock Fund")
corresponding respectively to the aforementioned Series. (See "The Funds," page
9.)
    
 
   
    If a Certificate is issued in connection with a plan qualifying under Code
section 403(b) or in connection with the purchase of an IRA under section
408(b), amounts transferred to the Separate Account may be invested only in two
Series: the T. Rowe Price Bond Series and the T. Rowe Price Growth and Income
Series of Security First Trust. If a Certificate has been issued pursuant to a
plan qualifying under Code section 457, any amounts transferred to the Separate
Account may be invested in all five Series.
    
 
    T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. ("Price Associates") provides investment
advisory and administrative services to Growth Stock Fund, Prime Reserve Fund
and International Stock Fund ("T. Rowe Price Funds"). Security First Investment
Management Corporation ("Security Management") is investment adviser and manager
to Security First
 
                                        4

Trust. Under a subadvisory agreement with Security Management, Price Associates
provides investment advisory services to the series of Security First Trust.
 
    During the accumulation period, a Participant may elect to have all or part
of the amounts allocated to any one Separate Account Series converted to another
Separate Account Series, subject to certain limitations. (See "Conversion Among
Series," page 13.) Each such conversion is subject to a $10 conversion charge
and to a $1,000 minimum amount. Such conversions are also permitted after the
Annuity Date, subject to the same $10 charge. Except in the case of Contracts
issued to certain state and local governmental units pursuant to section 457 of
the Code, an administrative charge ranging from $30 to $40 will be assessed
against a Participant's Account on each anniversary of the date such account was
established and on the date such account is cancelled as the result of a
complete surrender. A daily deduction for mortality and expense risks under the
Contracts, at the rate of .0000244 (equivalent to .89% annually) is assessed
against and deducted from the assets of each Series in the Separate Account.
(See "Contract Charges," page 11.)
 
    The Internal Revenue Code limits withdrawals from 403(b) Annuity Contracts
to circumstances only: when the Participant attains age 59 1/2, separates from
service, dies, becomes disabled (within the meaning of Section 72(m)(7) of the
Code), or in the case of hardship. Withdrawals for hardship are restricted to
the portion of the Participant's Account Value which represents contributions
made by the Participant and does not include any investment results. The
limitations on withdrawals apply only to: (1) salary reduction contributions
made after December 31, 1988; (2) income attributable to such contributions; and
(3) income attributable to amounts held as of December 31, 1988. The limitations
on withdrawals do not affect rollovers or exchanges between retirement plans
which receive favorable tax treatment under the Code. Tax penalties may also
apply.
 
    Participants should consult their own tax counsel or other tax adviser
regarding any distributions.
 
    Subject to the foregoing, a Participant may at any time before the Annuity
Date surrender all or part of his interest under the Contract, provided that no
partial surrender is permitted if it would reduce the Participant's interest in
any Series to less than $200 unless his entire interest in that Series is being
surrendered. Surrenders from any Separate Account Series are subject to a $10
charge and are effected on the basis of the current value of Accumulation Units
in such Series. (See "Termination (Redemption)," page 14.) In the event of the
Annuitant's death prior to attaining age 65 and before the Annuity Date,
Security First will pay as a death benefit the accumulated value of the
Participant's Account or, if greater, the total of the Participant's Purchase
Payments reduced by any amounts previously applied to provide Annuity income or
withdrawn as partial surrenders. (See "Death Benefits," page 17.)
 
    Since the contracts are designed to fulfill long-term financial needs,
purchasers should not consider them as short-term or temporary investments. The
Code provides for various taxes which may be assessed upon amounts that are
withdrawn prematurely under the Contracts. (See "Federal Income Tax Status,"
page 18.)

                     EXPLANATION OF FEE TABLE AND EXAMPLES
 
1. The purpose of the foregoing table and examples is to assist the Participant
   in understanding the various costs and expenses that he or she will bear
   directly or indirectly. The table reflects expenses of the Separate Account
   as well as the underlying funds. For additional information see "Contract
   Charges," beginning on page 11 of this prospectus. The examples do not
   illustrate the tax consequences of surrendering a Contract.
 
   
2. The examples assume that the initial transfer from the General Account to the
   Separate Account occurred during the first certificate year and that,
   therefore, the maximum sales charge of 7% is applied against the initial
   $1,000 investment. The 7% charge, however, should not be considered an
   expense if the Certificate is not surrendered, since that amount is placed in
   the Participant's fixed account to be refunded upon annuitization and payable
   in the form of a fixed annuity. Thus, for example, if the Participant began
   an annuity payout at any of the time periods indicated in the examples, he or
   she would receive an additional value (based upon the $1,000 hypothetical
   investment) of: 1 year $74, 3 years $81, 5 years $89 and 10 years $114 to be
   applied to a fixed annuity. In the case of an annuitization, the examples of
   expense incurred would be as follows:

THE GENERAL ACCOUNT
 
    The General Account is made up of all of the assets of Security First, other
than those in the Separate Account and any other segregated asset account. The
Owner may allocate amounts to the General Account at the time of purchase or by
subsequent transfers from the Separate Account. Amounts allocated to the General
Account will be credited with interest on the basis of interest rates guaranteed
or declared by Security First under the terms of the Contract. Instead of the
Owner bearing the risk of fluctuations in the value of the assets as is the case
for amounts invested in the Separate Account, Security First bears the full
investment risk for amounts in the General Account. Security First has sole
discretion to invest the assets of the General Account, subject to applicable
law. The General Account provisions of the Contract are not intended to be
offered by this Prospectus. Contract Owners are referred to the terms of the
Contract itself for more information concerning those provisions.
 
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
 
    The Separate Account was established by Security First on May 29, 1980, in
accordance with the provisions of the Delaware Insurance Code. It is registered
as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940
Act"). Registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") does not
involve supervision by the SEC of the management or investment practices or
policies of the Separate Account or Security First.
 
    The Separate Account and each Series therein are administered and accounted
for as part of the general business of Security First, but the income and
realized capital gains or losses of each Series are credited to or charged
against the assets held for that Series in accordance with the terms of the
Contracts. This is done without regard to the income, realized capital gains or
losses of any other Series or the experience of Security First in any other
business it may conduct. The assets within each Series are not chargeable with
liabilities incurred by any other Series, or arising out of any other business
Security First may conduct.
 
    All obligations arising under the Contracts, including the guarantee to make
Annuity payments, are general corporate obligations of Security First, and all
of Security First's assets are available to meet its expenses and obligations
under the Contracts. However, while Security First is obligated to make the
Variable Annuity payments under the Contracts, the amount of such payments is
guaranteed only to the extent of the level amount calculated at the beginning of
each Annuity year. (See "Level Payments Varying Annually," page 17.)
 
   
    The Separate Account is divided into a number of Series of Accumulation and
Annuity Units, five of which are available under the Contracts and each Series
invests in the shares of only one of the Funds (for this purpose, the term
"Fund" shall include each investment series of a multiple series management
investment company.) Series B, G, T, P and I, respectively, invest solely in the
shares of the T. Rowe Price Bond Series, the T. Rowe Price Growth and Income
Series, Growth Stock Fund, Prime Reserve Fund and the International Stock Fund.
The shares of each Fund are purchased for the corresponding Separate Account
Series at the net asset value per share next determined by each Fund following
its receipt of the applicable payment, without sales charge. Any dividend or
capital gain distributions received from a Fund are reinvested in Fund shares
which are retained as assets of the applicable Separate Account Series. Fund
shares will be redeemed without fee to the Separate Account to the extent
necessary for Security First to make Annuity or other payments under the
Contracts.
    
 
    If a Certificate is issued in connection with a tax sheltered annuity under
section 403(b) of the Code or an IRA, amounts transferred to the Separate
Account may be invested only in two Series: Series B and Series G. If a
Certificate has been issued in connection with a deferred compensation plan
described in section 457 of the Code, any amounts transferred to the Separate
Account may be invested in five Series: Series B, Series G, Series T, Series P
and Series I. These restrictions also apply to conversion between Series.
 
    If shares of any Fund should no longer be available for investment by a
Series or if in the judgment of Security First's management further investment
in the shares of any fund should become inappropriate in view of the purposes of
the Contracts issued, Security First may substitute for the Fund shares already
purchased, and apply future Purchase Payments under the Contracts to the
purchase of shares of another Fund or other securities. No substitution of
securities of any Series may take place, however, without a prior favorable vote
of a majority of the Owners entitled to vote who have invested in the Series and
the prior approval of the SEC.
 
THE FUNDS
 
    Each Fund in which a Separate Account Series is invested is a diversified,
open-end, management investment company, or a separate investment series
thereof, registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Such registration
does not involve supervision by the Securities and Exchange Commission of the
investments or investment
 
                                        9

policies of the Funds. The investment objectives of the Funds are set forth
below. There can be no assurance that the investment objectives of any of the
Funds will be achieved.
 
   
    The principal investment objective of the T. Rowe Price Bond Series is to
achieve the highest investment income over the long-term of Security First Trust
consistent with the preservation of principal through investment primarily in
marketable debt instruments. A secondary objective is growth of principal and
income with respect to those Fund assets that are invested in common and
preferred stocks.
    
 
   
    The principal investment objectives of the T. Rowe Price Growth and Income
Series are capital growth and production of income. Conservation of principal is
a secondary objective. While this Fund will generally invest in common stocks
and other equities, it may, depending on economic conditions, reduce such
investments and substitute fixed income instruments.
    
 
    The principal investment objective of Growth Stock Fund is long-term growth
of capital through investments, primarily in common stocks of growth companies.
 
    The investment objectives of Prime Reserve Fund are to seek the highest
possible levels of current income while preserving capital and maintaining
liquidity by investing primarily in money market (short-term debt) instruments.
 
    The investment objectives of the International Stock Fund are total return
on its assets from long-term growth of capital and income, principally through
investments in common stocks of established non-U.S. companies. Investments may
be made solely for capital appreciation or solely for income or any combination
of both for the purpose of achieving a higher overall return.
 
    Price Associates provides investment advisory services and administrative
services for the T. Rowe Price Funds. Security Management is the investment
advisor and manager to the Security First Trust. Under a subadvisory agreement
with Security Management, Price Associates provides investment management
services to each of the series of Security First Trust. Security First Trust, a
Massachusetts business trust, intends to offer its shares to separate accounts
funding variable annuity issued by both affiliated and unaffiliated insurance
companies. This practice, referred to as shared funding, presents the potential
for certain conflicts of interest which are discussed in the prospectus for
Security First Trust.

                                       10
<PAGE>   14
 
                                CONTRACT CHARGES
 
    Contract charges are assessed in the following ways: (i) as charges on
transfers from the General Account to the Separate Account, which may be deemed
to be in the nature of sales charges, (ii) as charges against each Participant's
Account for the administration of such account and (iii) as charges against the
value of the assets of the Separate Account Series for the assumption of
mortality and expense risks. These charges may not be changed under the
Contract.
 
    A Participant should note that there are deductions from and expenses paid
out of the assets of the underlying Funds that are described in their respective
prospectuses.
 
PREMIUM TAXES
 
    The Contracts permit Security First to deduct any applicable state premium
taxes, from each payment as received, from the Participant's General Account
values at the time that a transfer of amounts to the Separate Account is
elected, or from the Participant's Account at the time Annuity payments
commence. However, until further notice, such premium taxes, which range from 0%
to 2.35% (3.50% in Nevada), will be absorbed by Security First and will not be
charged against any Participant's Account.
 
REFUNDABLE SALES CHARGE
 
    Whenever a Participant elects to make a transfer from the General Account to
the Separate Account, such transfer is treated as a surrender from the General
Account and is subject to a percentage charge that varies according to the
length of time that payment amounts received by Security First have remained in
the General Account before being transferred. Such charge is never imposed on
earnings of the Separate Account. This charge amounts to:
    7% for amounts received in the calendar year of the transfer;
    6% for amounts received in the calendar year before the transfer;
    5% for amounts received in the 2nd calendar year before the transfer;
    4% for amounts received in the 3rd calendar year before the transfer;
    3% for amounts received in the 4th calendar year before the transfer;
    0% for all amounts received prior to the 4th calendar year before the
    transfer;
 
    These charges are applied by reducing the Participant's interest in the
General Account Series by an amount determined by dividing the amount elected to
be transferred to the Separate Account by a factor derived from the above
percentage charges. This factor is equivalent to (a) -- (b) where (a) is 1 and
(b) is the percentage charge expressed as a decimal. The General Account units
are cancelled on a first-in, first-out basis. The effect of this varying
schedule of percentage charges is that amounts left in the General Account for
longer periods of time are subject to a lower charge than amounts immediately
transferred. Thus, for example, if a Participant makes a written election to
transfer $500 of a Purchase Payment to Series B of the Separate Account
simultaneous with or prior to making the periodic payment, the General Account
Series would be reduced by $537.63 ($500 divided by a factor of 0.93). On the
other hand, if such transfer was a part of an election pertaining to a payment
that had been deposited in the second calendar year prior to the election to
transfer, the General Account Series would be reduced by only $526.32 ($500
divided by a factor of 0.95). (See "Transfers from the General Account to the
Separate Account," page 13.)
 
    While there is no direct correlation between the percentage charge and the
sales commissions that Security First pays to agents who sell the Contracts
described in this prospectus, such charge may nevertheless be deemed to be in
the nature of a sales charge for purposes of the 1940 Act. If, however, a
Participant's Account is applied to provide Annuity income, all percentage
charges (other than premium taxes, if any) previously imposed on that
Participant's transfers from the General Account to the Separate Account will be
restored in full or in part, as an Annuity bonus. (See "Annuity Payments," page
15.)
 
ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGES
 
    At the end of each Certificate Year, and on the date a Participant's Account
is cancelled as a result of a complete redemption, Security First will deduct an
administrative charge equal to $27.50 plus $2.50 for each General Account and
Separate Account Series for which there are Accumulation Units included in the
value of such account. These charges will thus range from a minimum of $30 to a
maximum of $40 on an annual basis. With respect to certain Contracts issued to
fund deferred compensation plans for state and local government employees
described in section 457 of the Code, Security First has agreed to waive a
portion of this annual administrative charge. As a result, the charge will be
equal to $12 for a single Series, plus $2.50 for each additional Series and the
administrative charges
 
                                       11
<PAGE>   15
 
will therefore range from $12 to $22. The administrative charge is designed to
cover the costs of administering the contracts.
 
    Administrative expenses include the cost of policy issuance, salaries, rent,
postage, telephone, travel expenses, legal, administrative, actuarial and
accounting fees, periodic reports, office equipment, stationery, office space
and custodial expenses.
 
    A $10 conversion charge is deducted from a Participant's Account for each
allowable election to convert Accumulation Units or Annuity Units from any one
Series to another. (See "Conversion Among Series," page 13.) A $10 surrender
charge is deducted from a Participant's Account for each partial surrender to
cover the costs of redemption. (See "Termination (Redemption)," page 14.)
 
    All of the various types of charges described above are effected by
cancelling Accumulation Units equal in value to the charges, and are allocated
(i) to the Series from which a surrender or transfer is being made or (ii) in
the case of periodic administrative charges, among the General Account and
Separate Account Series on the basis of their relative values at the time the
deduction is made.
 
MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE
 
    The minimum death benefit provided for by the Contracts requires Security
First to assume a mortality risk that the accumulated Contract value credited to
a Participant will be less than the Participant's adjusted Purchase Payments.
(See "Death Before the Annuity Date," page 17.) In addition, because the
Contracts provide life Annuity options, Security First assumes a mortality risk
that the death rate of Annuitants as a group will be lower than the death rate
upon which the mortality tables specified in the Contracts are based. Security
First also assumes the risk that the amounts collected as "Administrative
Charges" may be insufficient to cover its actual costs. A fee will be charged by
Security First to compensate it for assuming these mortality and expense risks
in connection with amounts allocated to the Separate Account. In valuing the
Separate Account, Security First will make a daily deduction from the Separate
Account determined by multiplying the value of the assets of the Separate
Account by .0000244 (.89% on an annual basis -- approximately .40% for mortality
risks and .49% for expense risks).
 
    In the event Security First has gains from the receipt of this fee over its
costs of assuming actuarial risks under the Contracts, some portion of the gains
may be allocated to Participants' Accounts under such Contracts as experience
credits if permitted by the plan under which the Contract is issued.
 
    To the extent there is a profit from the mortality and expense risk charges,
Security First may use such profit in its discretion, including the use of such
profit to offset expenses incurred in the distribution of the Contracts.
 
                          DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTRACTS
 
ANNUITY CERTIFICATES
 
    A group Contract is issued to a Contract Owner who is typically an employer,
a trustee, or a government organization establishing a retirement plan.
Employees who become Participants in the retirement plan are covered by a group
Contract and may be issued a Certificate which evidences their participation and
summarizes their rights under the Contract. No Certificates are issued to
Participants under a deferred compensation or qualified retirement plan since
all ownership rights in the Contract are held by the employer or the plan trust.
Since the Contracts are designed to fulfill long-term financial needs,
purchasers should not consider them as short-term or temporary investments.
 
ASSIGNMENT
 
    The rights of Participants under the Contract may be restricted or augmented
by the terms of the particular retirement plan or by the Code. For example, the
Code provides rules as to the amount of contributions, the time when
distributions must be commenced, and the Annuity options which are available. In
particular, the Code provides that Certificates issued in connection with
section 401 and 403 plans and IRAs must be nontransferable and nonassignable.
 
PURCHASE PAYMENTS
 
    Purchase Payments may be made on an annual, semi-annual, quarterly, or
monthly basis, or at such intervals as may be agreed to by Security First. The
frequency of Purchase Payments may be changed if permitted by the applicable
plan. The minimum annual Purchase Payment is $240; with each monthly purchase
payment subject to a $20 minimum. Purchase Payments will be invested in the
General Account Series to purchase Accumulation Units at their
 
                                       12
<PAGE>   16
 
value on the date the payment is received by Security First. Security First may
also accept Transfer Payments from other annuity contracts. Confirmation of each
Purchase or Transfer Payment received will be sent to the Owner or Participant
as appropriate.
 
TRANSFERS FROM THE GENERAL ACCOUNT TO THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
 
    The entire Purchase Payment, minus a 7% sales charge, may be transferred
immediately to the Separate Account if written instructions are received prior
to or simultaneous with the receipt of the payments affected. The minimum amount
that may be transferred with respect to any payment is $20.
 
    With the exception of certain deferred compensation plans described in
section 457 of the Code, if Purchase Payments are not transferred immediately,
subsequent elections to transfer are restricted to 48% of such payments and are
transferred in equal monthly installments over a period of at least 48 months.
Each monthly installment is subject to a $50 minimum. Transfers from the General
Account to the Separate Account are not permitted after Annuity payments have
commenced. No monthly transfers may be made from General Account Accumulation
Units which have been subject to any prior conversion election.
 
    All amounts transferred represent the current surrender value of the General
Account Accumulation Units which are cancelled. Pursuant to the Participant's
designation, and certain limitations described in "The Separate Account," page
9, amounts transferred to the Separate Account are invested at net asset value
in Accumulation Units of one or more of five Series, each of which consists of
the shares of a different Fund. The investment performance of the Fund and
deductions of certain changes affect the Accumulation Unit value. Amounts may
also be transferred back from the Separate Account to the General Account, but
only in connection with an election to apply the resulting General Account
values to provide Fixed Annuity benefits. In addition, all or part of the
percentage transfer charge may be restored as an Annuity bonus upon
annuitization. (See "Annuity Payments," page 15.)
 
CONVERSION AMONG SERIES
 
   
    A Participant may by written direction to Security First convert either
Accumulation Units or Annuity Units from any Separate Account Series to any one
or more other Separate Account Series. If a Certificate has been issued to fund
a tax sheltered annuity described in Section 403(b) of the Code, an IRA or a
deferred compensation plan for state or local employees described in Section 457
of the Code, conversions are subject to certain limitations. (See "The Separate
Account," page 9.) The minimum amount to be converted is $1,000 and is based
upon the value of the affected Series at the close of trading on the New York
Stock Exchange (currently 4:00 P.M. Eastern Time) on the Business Day such
conversion of a unit occurs, subject to a conversion charge of $10.
    
 
MODIFICATION OF THE CONTRACT
 
    The Contracts include Security First's assurance that Annuity payments
involving life contingencies will be based on the minimum guaranteed annuity
purchase rates incorporated in the Contracts, regardless of actual mortality
experience. The Contracts include provisions legally binding on Security First
with respect to these Annuity purchase rates and such other matters as death
benefits, deductions from Purchase Payments, deductions from individual accounts
for actuarial risk and other fees, and guaranteed rates with respect to fixed
benefits. Security First may unilaterally change such provisions, but only: (i)
with respect to Participants who become covered under a Contract after the
effective date of the change; (ii) with respect to benefits and values provided
by Purchase Payments made after the effective date of the change to the extent
that such Purchase Payments in any Certificate Year exceed the first year's
Purchase Payments; (iii) with respect to benefits and values provided by any
Transfer Payment from another tax deferred annuity contract which is accepted by
Security First after the effective date of the change; or (iv) to the extent
necessary to make the Contract conform to any federal or state law, regulations
or ruling.
 
    A contract may also be modified by agreement between Security First and the
Contract Owner, provided that no such modification will affect a Participant's
Account without that Participant's written consent.
 
    Inquiries as to Contract provisions should be made in writing to Security
First Life Insurance Company, P.O. Box 92193, Los Angeles, California 90009 or
by calling (310) 312-6100.

<PAGE>   17
 
                              ACCUMULATION PERIOD
 
CREDITING ACCUMULATION UNITS
 
    Accumulation Units are credited to a Participant's Account upon receipt of
each payment, transfer or conversion, as the case may be. The number of
Accumulation Units to be credited is determined by dividing the net amount
allocated to the Series in question by the value of an Accumulation Unit in that
Series next computed following receipt of the payment, transfer or conversion.
 
VALUATION OF AN ACCOUNT
 
   
    The value of a Participant's Account prior to the Annuity Date is determined
each business day as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange
(currently 4:00 P.M. Eastern Time) by multiplying the total number of
Accumulation Units credited to the account for each Series by the current value
of an Accumulation Unit in that Series. Prior to the Annuity Date, each
Participant will be provided with a written statement of account for each
calendar quarter in which a transaction occurred, but in no event less than once
annually. The statement of account will show all transactions for the period
being reported as well as the number of Accumulation Units of each Series then
credited to the Participant's Account, the current Accumulation Unit value for
each such Series, and the total value of the Participant's Account as of the end
of the reporting period.
    
 
SEPARATE ACCOUNT ACCUMULATION UNIT CURRENT VALUES
 
    The current value of Separate Account Accumulation Units for a Series varies
with the investment experience of the Fund in which assets of that Series are
invested. Such value is determined by multiplying the value of an Accumulation
Unit in the Series on the immediately preceding Business Day by the net
investment factor for the period since that day (see below). The Participant
bears the investment risk that the aggregate value of that portion of the
Participant's Account which is allocated to the Separate Account may at any time
be less than, equal to, or more than the amounts transferred to the Separate
Account.
 
NET INVESTMENT FACTOR
 
    The Separate Account net investment factor is an index of the percentage
change (adjusted for distributions by the Fund and the deduction of the
actuarial risk fee) in the net asset value of the Fund in which the Series is
invested, since the preceding Business Day. The net investment factor may be
either positive or negative, depending upon the Fund's investment performance.
 
TERMINATION (REDEMPTION)
 
    To the extent permitted by the Code and the plan under the terms of which
the Contract is purchased, a Participant's Account may be terminated fully or
partially at any time prior to the Annuity Date. As terminations may be
restricted or result in adverse federal income tax consequences, Participants
should consult their tax advisers before terminating their accounts. (See
"Accumulation Period -- Limitations on Redemptions," page 15.)
 
    The termination value (redemption value) of a Participant's interest in the
Separate Account prior to the Annuity Date may be determined at any time by
multiplying the number of Accumulation Units for each Series credited to the
Participant's Account by the value of an Accumulation Unit in such Separate
Account Series at that time. Upon receipt of an application for a full or
partial termination of a Participant's Account, Security First will determine
the value of the number of Accumulation Units terminated at the Accumulation
Unit value next computed following receipt of such written request by Security
First.
 
   
    A request for a partial termination (partial surrender) of a Participant's
Account containing more than one Series of Accumulation Units must specify the
allocation of the partial termination among the Series of Accumulation Units. In
the case of partial surrenders, a charge of the lesser of $10 or 2% of the
amount of the surrender is assessed against the value of each Series from which
a surrender is being made. No partial termination may be made that would cause a
Participant's interest in any Series in the Separate Account or the General
Account to have a value after the termination of less than $200, unless the
entire amount allocated to such Series is being withdrawn. Any termination in
the Separate Account will result in full or partial forfeiture of the right to
have charges previously imposed on transfers from the General Account to the
Separate Account restored in the form of an Annuity bonus. (See "Annuity
Payments," page 15.)
    
 
                                       14
<PAGE>   18
 
    Payment of any amount surrendered from the Separate Account will be made
within seven days of the date the request is received by Security First.
Payments of termination values may be suspended when: (i) trading on the New
York Stock Exchange is restricted by the SEC or such Exchange is closed for
other than weekends or holidays; (ii) the SEC has by order permitted such
suspension; or (iii) an emergency, as determined by the SEC, exists making
disposal of portfolio securities or valuation of assets of the Funds not
reasonably practicable.
 
    Repayment of the amount received from the Separate Account upon such a
termination may be made if such repayment is received by Security First within
30 days of the date such amount was mailed to the Participant by Security First,
provided that this reinstatement right may be exercised one time only. An amount
repaid under this provision will be applied to purchase Separate Account
Accumulation Units at the unit values prevailing at the time the repayment is
received by Security First. Failure to exercise such repayment privilege after a
full termination will result in cancellation of a Participant's Account under
the Contract.
 
LIMITATIONS ON REDEMPTIONS
 
    Participant account values attributable to contributions made pursuant to a
salary reduction agreement, as defined in section 403(b)(11) of the Code, may be
redeemed only: when the Participant attains age 59 1/2, separates from service,
dies, becomes disabled (within the meaning of Section 72(m)(7) of the Code) or
in the case of hardship.
 
    Redemptions in the case of hardship may not include any income attributable
to salary reduction contributions.
 
    Redeemed amounts may be taxable and may be subject to a penalty tax. If a
withdrawal is taxable, Security First will process required tax withholding
against a Participant's Account. A Participant should first consult with a tax
adviser before terminating any portion of his or her Account. If these
limitations are violated, the Participant's Certificate may be disqualified
under section 403(b) of the Code, resulting in immediate taxation.
 
    The above limitations affect contributions made pursuant to a salary
reduction agreement after December 31, 1988 and to income attributable to such
contributions and to income attributable to amounts held as of December 31,
1988. The limitations generally do not apply to rollovers or exchanges between
retirement plans which receive favorable tax treatment under the Code.
Participants should consult their own tax counsel or other tax adviser.
 
                                 ANNUITY PERIOD
 
ANNUITY PAYMENTS
 
    When Annuity payments are to begin, the value of a Participant's Account is
determined by multiplying the number of Accumulation Units of each Series in his
account by the value of an Accumulation Unit in the account in that Series on
the last Business Day of the second calendar week immediately preceding the date
on which the first Annuity payment is to be made. Immediately prior to this
valuation, Separate Account values may be transferred among the Separate Account
and General Account Series in order to allocate benefits during the Annuity
period between Fixed and Variable Annuity payments as desired by the
Participant, subject to a $10 conversion charge. (This is the only circumstance
under which amounts may be transferred from the Separate Account back to the
General Account.)
 
    In the absence of such allocation, General Account Accumulation Units will
be applied to provide a Fixed Annuity, and Separate Account Accumulation Units
will be applied to provide a Variable Annuity. The dollar amount of Variable
Annuity payments will reflect investment gains and losses and investment income
in the Separate Account both before and after the Annuity Date (assuming
variable accumulation) but will not be affected by adverse mortality experience
or by an increase in Security First's expenses which may exceed the various
administrative charges provided for under the Contracts.
 
    When a Participant's interest in the Separate Account is applied to provide
Annuity income then, if such Participant has made no terminations (redemptions)
from the Separate Account, Security First will add an Annuity bonus to the
amount available to provide Fixed Annuity benefits under the Contract. The
Annuity bonus will be equal to the sales charges previously imposed upon the
Participant's Account with respect to transfers from the General Account to one
or more Separate Account Series, together with interest on such amount. If the
Participant has made partial terminations (redemptions) from the Separate
Account, an Annuity bonus will still be credited but will be reduced
proportionately to
 
                                       15
<PAGE>   19
 
reflect those terminations. The Annuity bonus will be reduced by the same
proportion which the amount of the termination then bears to the Participant's
entire interest in the Separate Account.
 
ELECTION OF ANNUITY DATE AND FORM OF ANNUITY
 
    The date on which Annuity payments are to begin and the form of option are
elected by the Participant or Owner, as the case may be. The normal Annuity Date
is the Certificate anniversary nearest to the Annuitant's 75th birthday, or the
10th anniversary of the Certificate Date, whichever is later, except as the Code
may otherwise require. However, to the extent not prohibited by any applicable
plan restrictions, an optional Annuity Date may be elected; such date may be the
first day of any month prior to the normal Annuity Date. The election must be
made at least 31 days before the optional Annuity Date.
 
    The normal form of Annuity under the Contracts is Option 2, a life Annuity
with 120 monthly payments certain. Unless indicated otherwise, Option 2 will be
automatically applied. Changes in the optional form of Annuity payment may be
made at any time up to 31 days prior to the date on which Annuity payments are
to begin. Options 1 through 4 may be elected as either Variable Annuities or
Fixed Annuities, while Option 5 may be elected only as a Fixed Annuity. The
first Annuity payments described in Options 1 through 4 are determined on the
basis of (i) the mortality table specified in the Contracts, (ii) the age and
where permitted the sex of the Annuitant, (iii) the type of Annuity payment
option(s) selected, and (iv) the assumed interest rate selected. Fixed Annuity
payments described in Option 5 are determined on the basis of (i) the number of
years in the payment period and (ii) the interest rate guaranteed with respect
to the option.
 
OPTION 1 -- LIFE ANNUITY
 
    An Annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of an individual, ceasing
with the last payment due prior to the death of an individual. This option
offers the maximum level of monthly payments since there is no guarantee of a
minimum number of payments or of death benefits for beneficiaries.
 
OPTION 2 -- LIFE ANNUITY WITH 120, 180 OR 240 MONTHLY PAYMENTS CERTAIN
 
    An Annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of an individual with a
guaranteed minimum number of monthly payments of not less than 120, 180 or 240
months, as elected. If at the death of the individual the specified number of
payments have not been made, Annuity payments will be continued during the
remainder of such period to the designated beneficiary.
 
OPTION 3 -- INSTALLMENT REFUND LIFE ANNUITY
 
    An Annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of an individual with a
guaranteed minimum number of monthly payments equal to the amount applied under
this option divided by the first monthly payment.
 
OPTION 4 -- JOINT AND LAST SURVIVOR ANNUITY
 
    An Annuity payable monthly during the joint lifetime of an individual and
thereafter during the lifetime of the survivor, ceasing with the last payment
due prior to the death of the survivor.
 
OPTION 5 -- PAYMENTS FOR A DESIGNATED PERIOD
 
    A fixed dollar Annuity payable monthly for a specified number of years from
5 to 30. The amount of each payment will be based on an interest rate determined
by Security First, which will not be less than 4% per annum for designated
periods of 10 to 30 years, and 3% per annum for designated periods of 5 to 9
years. Participants who are age 60 or older on the Annuity Date, or who have
submitted evidence of their election to begin payments under their employer's
retirement program, may elect a designated period of 3 years for the Fixed
Annuity payments under this option. Fixed Annuity payments under this option may
not be commuted to a lump sum, except as provided under "Death Benefits," page
17.
 
FREQUENCY OF PAYMENT
 
    Payments under all options will be made on a monthly basis, unless a
different arrangement has been requested by the Participant and agreed to by
Security First. If at any time any payments to be made to any individual under
any Series are or become less than $50 each, Security First shall have the right
to decrease the frequency of payments to such interval as will result in a
payment of at least $50.
 
                                       16

LEVEL PAYMENTS VARYING ANNUALLY
 
    Under the Contracts, Variable Annuity payments are determined annually
rather than monthly, so that Annuity payments, uniform in amount, are made
monthly during each Annuity year. The level of payments for each year is based
on the investment performance of the Separate Account up to the Valuation Date
as of which the payments are determined for the year. Thus, amounts of the
Annuity payments vary with the investment performance of the Separate Account
from year to year rather than from month to month. An amount is removed from the
Separate Account at the beginning of each year during which Annuity income
payments are to be made. The monthly Annuity payments for the year are made from
the General Account and are determined using an assumed investment rate of 4.25%
unless an alternate assumed investment rate has been selected by the individual.
(See "Alternate Assumed Investment Rates," page 17.) Security First will profit
on the amounts placed in the General Account to provide level monthly payments
during that year to the extent that net investment income and gains in the
General Account exceed the assumed investment rate selected.
 
ALTERNATE ASSUMED INVESTMENT RATES
 
    Variable Annuity payments will vary to reflect the investment experience of
the Separate Account and the assumed investment return is the fulcrum rate
around which Variable Annuity payments will fluctuate to reflect whether the
investment experience of the Separate Account is better or worse than the
assumed rate. A higher assumed investment rate will result in a higher initial
payment, but more slowly rising or more rapidly falling subsequent payments than
a lower assumed investment rate.
 
    Unless otherwise provided, the assumed investment rate will be 4.25% per
annum. To the extent permitted by state law and regulations, Security First will
permit election of an assumed investment rate of 3.50%, 5% or 6%. It should not
be inferred, however, that such rates will bear any relationship to the actual
net investment experience of the Separate Account.
 
ANNUITY UNIT VALUES
 
    The value of an Annuity Unit for each Series on any date is determined by
multiplying the value of an Annuity Unit at the end of the preceding Valuation
Period by the "Annuity change factor" for the second preceding Valuation Period.
The Annuity change factor is an adjusted measurement of the investment
performance of the Separate Account since the end of the preceding Valuation
Period. The Annuity change factor is determined by dividing the value of an
Accumulation Unit at the end of the Valuation Period by the value of an
Accumulation Unit at the end of the preceding Valuation Period and multiplying
the result by a neutralization factor.
 
                                 DEATH BENEFITS
 
DEATH BEFORE THE ANNUITY DATE
 
    For certificates issued other than in connection with a section 401 plan, a
section 403(b) plan, a section 457 plan or an IRA, the following provisions
apply:
 
    1. If the beneficiary is the Participant's spouse, the spouse shall be
       deemed to be the Participant and succeeds to all the Contract rights that
       relate to the Contract.
 
    2. If the beneficiary is not the Participant's spouse, the beneficiary may
       elect to receive a lump sum settlement, or to receive annuity income
       under Annuity Income Options One, Two, or Five. (See "Annuity Payments,"
       page 15). The lump sum settlement must be made within five years of the
       death of the participant. Payments under the Annuity Income Options must
       begin within one year of the Participant's death and the period of
       payments may not be longer than the beneficiary's life expectancy as
       specified by the Internal Revenue Service tables.
 
    For certificates issued in connection with a section 401 plan, a section
403(b) plan, a section 457 plan or an IRA, and except as otherwise provided in
the plan under the terms of which the Contract was purchased, the following
provisions apply:
 
    1. If the beneficiary is the Participant's spouse, the spouse may elect to
       receive annuity income under Annuity Income Options One, Two, or Five, or
       to treat the Contract as his or her own. Payments under the Annuity
       Income Options must begin prior to the date on which the deceased
       Participant would have attained age 70 1/2.
 
                                       17
<PAGE>   21
 
    2. If the beneficiary is not the Participant's spouse, the beneficiary may
       elect to receive a lump sum settlement or to receive annuity income under
       Annuity Income Options One, Two, or Five. The lump sum settlement must be
       made within five years of the death of the participant. Payments under
       the Annuity Income Options must begin within one year of the
       participant's death and the period of payments may not be longer than the
       beneficiary's life expectancy as specified by the Internal Revenue
       Service tables.
 
    The death benefit under the Contracts will be calculated as of the date of
payment after receipt of due proof of death.
 
DEATH AFTER THE ANNUITY DATE
 
    With respect to section 401 and 403(b) plans and IRA certificates, whenever
issued, and all other certificates issued after January 18, 1985, if the
Annuitant dies on or after the Annuity Date, the remaining portion of his or her
interest will be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method of
distribution being used at the date of the Annuitant's death. If no designated
beneficiary survives the Annuitant, the present value of any remaining payments
certain on the date of death of the Annuitant may be paid in one sum, calculated
on the basis of the assumed investment rate previously elected, to the estate of
the Annuitant unless another provision has been made and approved by Security
First. This value is calculated as of the date of payment following receipt of
due proof of death.
 
WITHDRAWAL
 
    Unless otherwise restricted, a beneficiary receiving variable payments under
Annuity Income Options 2 or 3 after the death of the Annuitant may elect at any
time to receive the present value of the remaining number of Annuity payments
certain in a single payment calculated on the basis of the assumed investment
rate previously elected. However, such election is not available to a
beneficiary receiving Fixed Annuity payments.
 
                           FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS
 
    The operations of the Separate Account form part of the operations of
Security First. Under the Code as it is now written no federal income tax is
payable by Security First on the investment income and capital gains of the
Separate Account. Moreover, as long as the Separate Account meets the
diversification requirements of section 817(h) of the Code, no federal income
tax is payable by the Participant on the investment income and capital gains
under a Certificate until Annuity payments commence or a full or partial
withdrawal is made. It is intended that the Separate Account will continue to
meet the requirements of section 817(h) of the Code.
 
    Employers may deduct their contributions to self-employed and corporate
pension and profit-sharing plans described in section 401 of the Code and tax
sheltered annuities described in section 403(b) in the year when made up to the
limits specified in the Code. In addition, some employer plans may permit
nondeductible employee contributions.
 
    All distributions, with the exception of a return of permitted nondeductible
employee contributions, are included in gross income. In the case of section 401
and 403(b) plans and IRAs, a distribution is includible in the year in which it
is paid. In the case of a 457 plan, a distribution is includible in the year it
is paid or made available. Under certain limited circumstances, a lump sum
distribution from a section 401 plan may qualify for special 5-year or 10-year
forward income averaging or long-term capital gains treatment.
 
    In the case of section 401, section 403(b), section 457 plans and IRAs,
Annuity payments for life or a period not exceeding the life expectancy of the
Participant or the Participant and a designated beneficiary must commence by
April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the employee
attains age 70 1/2 (or retires in this case of government plans) (excluding
account values in a 403(b) plan at December 31, 1986). Distributions under
sections 401, 403(b) and 457 plans must also meet the minimum incidental death
benefit requirements of the Code.
 
    Except as described below, the Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable
portion of any distribution from qualified retirement plans, including both 401
and 403(b) plans. To the extent amounts are not includable in gross income
because they have been rolled over to an IRA or to another 403(b) annuity, no
tax penalty will be imposed. The tax penalty will not apply to the following
distributions: (a) if distribution is made on or after the date on which the
Participant reaches age 59 1/2; (b) distributions following the death or
disability of the Participant (for this purpose disability is defined in Section
72(m)(7) of the Code); (c) after separation from service, distributions that are
part of substantially equal periodic payments, not less frequently than
annually, made for the life (or life expectancy) of the Participant or the joint
lives (or joint life expectancies) of such Participant and his designated
beneficiary;
 
                                       18
<PAGE>   22
 
(d) distributions to a Participant who has separated from service after
attaining age 55; (e) distributions made to the Participant to the extent such
distributions do not exceed the amount allowable as a deduction under Code
Section 213 to the Participant for amounts paid during the taxable year for
medical care; and (f) distributions made to an alternate payee pursuant to a
qualified domestic relations order.
 
    Similar rules apply to IRAs, but there are fewer exceptions to the 10%
penalty tax. The taxable portion of an IRA distribution will not be subject to
the tax penalty if: (a) it is made on or after the date on which the Participant
reaches age 59 1/2; (b) it is made following the death or disability of the
Participant; or (c) it is part of substantially equal periodic payments, not
less frequently than annually, made for the life (or life expectancy) of the
Participant or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of such Participant
and his or her designated beneficiary. The 10% penalty tax does not apply to
section 457 plans.
 
    The Code prohibits the withdrawal of amounts contributed or earned under a
403(b) annuity on or after January 1, 1989, except in these circumstances: (a)
the Participant attains age 59 1/2 years, separates from service, dies, becomes
disabled (within the meaning of Section 72(m)(7) of the Code), or (b) in the
case of hardship as determined in accordance with applicable regulations,
including with respect to the existence of a Participant's hardship
circumstances. Withdrawals for hardship are restricted to the portion of the
Participant's Account which represents contributions by the Participant and does
not include any investment results. These limitations on withdrawals apply only
to salary reduction contributions made after December 31, 1988 and to income
attributable to such contributions and to income attributable to amounts held as
of December 31, 1988. The limitations on withdrawals do not affect rollovers or
exchanges between section 403(b) annuities.
 
    Providing certain requirements of the Code are met, distributions from a
plan may be rolled over tax free to another plan. Distributions from a section
401 plan may be rolled over to a section 401 defined contribution plan, a 403(a)
annuity or an IRA. Distributions from a tax sheltered annuity may be rolled over
to another tax sheltered annuity or an IRA. Distributions from an IRA may be
rolled over to another IRA and, if the IRA contains only permissible rollover
amounts, to a section 401 plan or a tax sheltered annuity.
 
    Distributions from a non-qualified retirement plan prior to age 59 1/2 will
be subject to an additional tax of 10%, unless otherwise exempt or the
distribution is made from a section 457 plan.
 
    The discussion contained in the Prospectus regarding withdrawals and other
distributions from a Participant's Account should be considered in light of the
above.
 
WITHHOLDING
 
    Security First is required to withhold federal income tax on Annuity
payments, distributions, partial and full surrenders. However, recipients of
contract distributions are allowed to make an election not to have federal
income tax withheld. After such election is made with respect to Annuity
payments, an Annuitant may revoke the election at any time, and thereafter
commence withholding. Security First will notify the payee at least annually of
his or her right to change such election.
 
    Security First Life is required to withhold 20% of certain taxable amounts
constituting "eligible rollover distributions" to participants (including lump
sum distributions) in retirement plans under Code Section 401 and tax deferred
annuities under Code Section 403(b). This withholding requirement does not apply
to distributions from such plans and annuities in the form of a life and life
expectancy annuity (individual or joint), an annuity with a designated period of
10 years or more, or any distribution required by the minimum distribution
requirements of Code Section 401(a)(9). Withholding on these latter types of
distribution will continue to be made under the rules described in the prior
paragraph. A participant cannot elect out of the 20% withholding requirement.
However, if an eligible rollover distribution is rolled over into an eligible
retirement plan or IRA in a direct trustee-to-trustee transfer, no withholding
will be required.
 
    Payees are required by law to provide Security First (as payor) with their
correct taxpayer identification number ("TIN"). If the payee is an individual,
the TIN is the same as such person's social security number.
 
MULTIPLE CONTRACTS
 
    Code Section 72(e)(11) provides that multiple deferred annuity contracts
which are issued within a 12-month period to the same Contract Owner by one
company or its affiliates are treated as one annuity contract for purposes of
determining the tax consequences of any distribution. Such treatment may result
in adverse tax consequences.
 
                                       19
<PAGE>   23
 
OBTAINING TAX ADVICE
 
   
    It should be recognized that the federal income tax information in this
Prospectus is not exhaustive and is for information purposes only. The
discussion above does not purport to cover all situations involving the purchase
of an Annuity or the election of an option under the Contract. Tax results may
vary depending upon individual situations and special rules may apply in certain
cases. State and local tax results may also vary. For these reasons a qualified
tax adviser should be consulted.
    
 
                                 VOTING RIGHTS
 
    Unless otherwise restricted by the plan under which a Contract is issued,
each Participant will have the right to instruct Security First with respect to
voting the Fund shares which are the assets underlying his interest in the
Separate Account, at all shareholders' meetings. Security First will mail to
each person having voting rights under the Contracts, at his last known address,
all periodic reports and proxy material of the applicable Fund and a form with
which to give voting instructions. Fund shares as to which no timely
instructions are received will be voted by Security First in proportion
according to the instructions received from all persons giving timely
instructions. Security First is under no duty to inquire as to the instructions
received or the authority of persons to instruct the voting of Fund shares, and
unless Security First has actual knowledge to the contrary, the instructions
given it will be valid as they affect Security First or the Funds.
 
    To the extent that a Participant has vested rights in the Contract pursuant
to sections 403(b) or 408(b) of the Code, such Participant will have the right
to instruct Security First as to how Fund shares attributable to such
Participant are to be voted on his or her behalf. In all other cases, the Owner
shall have the right to instruct Security First as to the casting of votes under
the Contract. Once Annuity payments with respect to a Participant's Account have
begun, the Annuitant shall have any voting rights exercisable with respect to
such account.
 
    The number of votes to be cast by each person having the right to vote shall
be determined as of a record date within 90 days prior to the meeting of the
Fund, and voting instructions will be solicited by written communication at
least 10 days prior to such meeting. To be entitled to vote, an Owner or
Participant or Annuitant must have been such on the record date. The number of
Fund shares as to which voting instructions may be given to Security First is
determined by dividing the value, on such record date, of that portion of the
Participant's Account then allocated to the Series for that Fund by the net
asset value of a Fund share as of the same date.
 
                               LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
    Security First, in the ordinary course of its business, is engaged in
litigation of various kinds which in its judgment is not of material importance
in relation to its total assets. There are no present or pending material legal
proceedings affecting the Separate Account.

Security First Life Insurance Company ("Security First Life") is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Security First Group, Inc. ("SFG"). The common shares of SFG are
held by London Insurance Group, Inc., a Canadian insurance service corporation
and publicly traded subsidiary of the Trilon Financial Corporation of Toronto,
Canada.
    

THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT

The Security First Life Separate Account A ("Separate Account") presently funds
group variable annuity Contracts offered by Security First Life on Forms 226 R1,
234, 236 and an individual variable annuity Contract on Form 135. These group
and individual annuity contracts are described in other prospectuses. The group
variable annuity contracts ("Contracts") described in this Statement of
Additional Information and related prospectus is a distinct contract from the
above described group and individual annuity contracts.

   
Amounts allocated to the Separate Account are invested in the securities of five
Funds. (For purposes of this Statement of Additional Information, the term
"Fund" includes each investment series of a multiple series management
investment company.) These Funds are: the T. Rowe Price Bond Series and T. Rowe
Price Growth and Income Series of Security First Trust; the T. Rowe Price Growth
Stock Fund, Inc.; the T. Rowe Price Prime Reserve Fund Inc.; and the T. Rowe
Price International Stock Fund, Inc. The Separate Account is divided into
multiple Series of Accumulation and Annuity Units; including Series B, Series G,
Series T, Series P and Series I, corresponding respectively to these five Funds.
    

THE FUNDS

   
Security First Trust is a Massachusetts business trust formed on February 13,
1987. Two of the Series of the Trust are offered under the Contracts:

The principal investment objective of the T. Rowe Price Bond Series of the
Security First Trust (formerly the Bond Series) is to achieve the highest
investment income over the long term consistent with the preservation of
principal through investment primarily in marketable debt instruments. A
secondary objective is growth of principal and income with respect to those Fund
assets that are invested in common and preferred stocks.

The principal investment objectives of the T. Rowe Price Growth and Income
Series of the Security First Trust (formerly the Growth and Income Series) are
capital growth and production of income. Conservation of principal is a
secondary objective. While this Fund will generally invest in common stocks and
other equities, it may, depending on economic conditions, reduce such
investments and substitute fixed income instruments.
    

T. Rowe Price Growth Stock Fund, Inc. is an open-end management investment
company which seeks long-term growth of capital through investments, primarily
in common stocks of growth companies.

T. Rowe Price Prime Reserve Fund, Inc. is an open-end management investment
company which seeks the highest possible levels of current income while
preserving capital and maintaining liquidity by investing primarily in money
market (short-term debt) instruments.

T. Rowe Price International Stock Fund is an open-end management investment
company which seeks total return on its assets from long-term growth of capital
and income, principally through investments in common stocks of established
non-U.S. companies. Investments may


                                       3
<PAGE>   28
be made solely for capital appreciation or solely for income or any combination
of both for the purchase of achieving a higher overall return.

   
The two Funds which are available from the Security First Trust have contracted
to receive investment advice and management from Security First Investment
Management Corporation ("Security Management") a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Security First Group, Inc., and an affiliate of Security First Life Insurance
Company and Security First Financial, Inc. Security Management receives an
annual fee, accrued daily and payable in monthly installments, based on 0.50% of
the average daily net assets of each Fund. Security Management has entered into
Sub-Advisory Agreements with T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. ("Price Associates")
under which Price Associates provides investment advisory services to each of
the two series of Security First Trust. Price Associates receives an annual fee
from Security Management, accrued daily and payable in monthly installments,
equal to 0.35% of average daily net assets of each of the series.
    

T. Rowe Price Growth Stock Fund, Inc., is managed by Price Associates, which
provides administrative services and investment advice and makes all investment
decisions for the Fund. It receives from the Fund a monthly fee of 0.50% of the
first $50,000,000 of the net assets of the Fund, 0.40% of the next $100,000,000
of such assets, 0.35% of the next $850,000,000 of such assets, and 0.30% of such
assets over $1,000,000,000. This monthly fee is subject to an upward or downward
adjustment depending upon whether and to what extent, the investment performance
of the Fund exceeds or is exceeded by the investment record of the Standard &
Poor's 500 Stock Composite Index.

T. Rowe Price Prime Reserve Fund, Inc. is managed by Price Associates, which,
pursuant to contract, provides investment advisory and certain other services to
the Fund in return for an annual fee payable in monthly installments and based
on the Fund's average daily net assets. The fee specified in the contract is
0.40% of the first $1,000,000,000 of average daily net assets, 0.35% of the next
$500,000,000 of such assets, 0.275% of the next $500,000,000 of such assets, and
0.25% of such assets in excess of $2,000,000,000.

T. Rowe Price International Stock Fund Inc. is managed by Rowe-Price Fleming
International, Inc. ("Price-Fleming"). Price-Fleming receives an investment
management fee consisting of a flat individual fund fee equal to .35% per annum
of the funds assets and a group fee of .34% per annum of fund assets (which fee
varies based on the combined net assets of all mutual funds sponsored and
managed by Price-Fleming and T. Rowe Price Associates, excluding the T. Rowe
Price Spectrum Fund, Inc. and any institutional or private label mutual funds.

The T. Rowe Price Prime Reserve Fund, Inc. has determined to maintain a net
asset value per share of $1.00 by rounding to the nearest $.01. This method of
valuation is commonly referred to as "penny rounding" and is permitted under
Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This Fund has instituted procedures to assure, to
the extent reasonably practicable, that the price per share of the Fund
portfolio will remain at $1.00. However, Participants who select this Fund as
the basis for Annuity payments should be aware that the value of Accumulation
Units representing an investment in this Fund will not be stabilized.
Furthermore, despite the procedures that will be followed to maintain a
stabilized price, there is no assurance that at some future time there will not
be a rapid increase in interest rates, a default by an issuer of a portfolio
security or some other event that could cause the Fund's price per share to
change from $1.00.

The primary objective of a Variable Annuity having Separate Account assets
chiefly invested in a portfolio of common stocks is to provide Annuitants with
Annuity payments which will tend to remain level during a period when the
economy is relatively stable and to provide increased Annuity payments during
periods of economic growth and inflation. It is believed 


                                       4
<PAGE>   29

that the value of such Separate Account investment will, over the long term,
tend to reflect changes in the general economic price level. Historically, the
value of a diversified portfolio of common stocks held for an extended period of
time has tended to rise during periods of economic growth and inflation.
However, there is no exact correlation between the two. In some periods the
value of a common stock portfolio has declined while the cost of living has
increased.

   
The primary objective of a Variable Annuity having Separate Account assets
chiefly invested in fixed income securities is to provide Annuitants with
Annuity payments which will be higher in amount than those provided by
conventional Fixed Annuities. It should be recognized, however, that a portfolio
consisting of nonconvertible fixed income securities and which is designed to
obtain a high level of current yield involves market risks that are not found in
a Fixed Annuity and differ from those found in a Variable Annuity which is
invested primarily in common and preferred stocks. The market value of
nonconvertible fixed income securities usually reflects yields then generally
available in securities of similar quality and type. Based upon historical
analysis, when interest rates decline, the market value of a portfolio already
invested at higher interest rates may be expected to rise if such securities are
not subject to call at the option of the issuer. Conversely, when such interest
rates increase, the market value of a portfolio already invested at lower
interest rates may be expected to decline. The T. Rowe Price Bond Series and the
T. Rowe Price Growth and Income Series of the Security First Trust may, pursuant
to their investment policies, invest a significant portion of their assets in
long-term fixed income securities. Because of this, Participants who select one
of these Funds as the basis for Annuity payments should recognize that Annuity
payments may decrease during periods when interest rates and general prices are
rising.
    

Participants should carefully consider which of the available underlying Funds
is best suited to an Annuitant's long-term needs.

PURCHASE OF SECURITIES BEING OFFERED

Purchase Payments may be made on an annual, semi-annual, quarterly, or monthly
basis, or at such intervals as may be agreed to by Security First Life. The
minimum annual purchase payment is $240; with each monthly purchase payment
subject to a $20 minimum. All payments will be initially invested in the General
Account Series. Thereafter, and before any Annuity payments have commenced, the
Participant may elect to transfer all or a portion of the resulting General
Account values from additional payments to the Separate Account to provide
Variable Annuity benefits.

Each transfer is subject to a refundable sales charge that varies in amount from
0% to 7% depending on the length of time the payment amount remains in the
General Account before transfer, as described in the prospectus. These charges
are applied by reducing the Participant's interest in the General Account Series
by an amount determined by dividing the amount to be transferred by a factor
derived from the percentage charges indicated above.

The factor used in determining the number of Accumulation Units to be cancelled
from the General Account Series is determined by the calendar year in which the
transfer of amounts is made in relation to the year such amounts were deposited
in the General Account, and is equivalent to (a) - (b) where (a) is 1 and (b) is
the applicable percentage charge expressed as a decimal. Such General Account
Accumulation Units will be cancelled on a first-in, first-out basis. Thus, for
example, if a Participant elects to transfer $500 to Series B of the Separate
Account prior to or concurrent with his making a periodic purchase payment, the
factor would be .93, determined by subtracting .07 from 1, and the General
Account Series would be reduced by $537.63, which is the result obtained by
dividing $500 by .93. Alternatively, if the Participant elected in the second
year following the deposit of the Purchase Payment to 


                                       5
<PAGE>   30

transfer the same $500 amount the factor would be .95 (obtained by subtracting
 .05 from 1), and the General Account Series would be reduced by only $526.32,
the result obtained by dividing $500 by .95. The foregoing charges are subject
to possible restoration in the form of an Annuity Bonus.

NET INVESTMENT FACTOR

The Separate Account net investment factor is an index of the percentage change
(adjusted for distributions by the Fund and the deduction of the actuarial risk
fee) in the net asset value of the Fund in which the Series is invested, since
the preceding Business Day. The Separate Account net investment factor for each
Series of Accumulation Units is determined for any Business Day by dividing (i)
the net asset value of a share of the Fund which is represented by such Series
at the close of business on such day, plus the per share amount of any
distributions made by such Fund on such day by (ii) the net asset value of a
share of such Fund determined as of the close of business on the preceding
Business Day and then subtracting from this result the actuarial risk fee factor
of 0.0000244 for each calendar day between the preceding Business Day and the
end of the current Business Day.

ANNUITY PAYMENTS

Basis of Variable Annuity Benefits

The Variable Annuity benefit rates used in determining Annuity payments under
the Contracts are based on actuarial assumptions, reflected in tables in the
Contracts, as to the expected mortality of a large group of Annuitants of the
same sex, where permitted, and adjusted age and the form of Annuity selected.
The mortality basis for these tables is Security First Life's Modified Select
Annuity Mortality Table, projected to the year 2000 on Projection Scale C, with
interest at 4.25% for all functions involving life contingencies and the portion
of any period certain beyond 10 years, and 3.25% for the first 10 years of any
certain period.

Adjusted age in those tables means actual age to the nearest birthday at the
time the first payment is due, adjusted according to the following table:

</TABLE>

Determination of Amount of Monthly Variable Annuity Payments for First Year

The Separate Account value used to establish the monthly payment for the first
payment year consists of the value of Accumulation Units of each Series of the
Separate Account held in the Participant's Account on the last day of the second
calendar week before the Annuity Date. The Contracts contain tables showing
monthly payment factors and Annuity premium rates per $1,000 of Separate Account
value to be applied under Options 1 through 4.

At the beginning of the first payment year an amount is transferred from the
Separate Account to the General Account and level monthly Annuity payments for
the year are made out of the General Account for that year. The amount
transferred is determined by multiplying the Annuity premium rate per $1,000 set
forth in Contract tables by the number of thousands of


                                       6
<PAGE>   31
dollars of Separate Account value in the individual's account. The level monthly
payment for the first payment year is then determined by multiplying the amount
transferred (the Annuity premium) by the monthly payment factor in the same
table. In the event the account involved has Separate Account Accumulation Units
in more than one Series of the Separate Account, the total monthly Annuity
payment for the first year is the sum of the monthly Annuity payments,
determined in the same manner as above, for each Separate Account Series.

At the time the first year's monthly payments are determined, a number of
Annuity Units for each Separate Account Series is also established for the
Annuitant by dividing the monthly payment derived from that Series for the first
year by the Separate Account Annuity Unit values for the Series on the last
Business Day of the second calendar week before the first Annuity payment is
due. The number of Annuity Units remains fixed during the Annuity period unless
Annuity Units are converted to another Series.

Determination of Amount of Monthly Variable Annuity Payments for Second and
Subsequent Years

As of each anniversary of the Annuity Date, Security First Life will determine
the amount of the monthly Variable Annuity payments for the year then beginning.
Separate determinations will be made for each Separate Account Series in which
the Annuitant has Annuity Units, with the total Annuity payment being the sum of
the payments derived from the Series. The amount of monthly payments for any
Separate Account Series for any year after the first will be determined by
multiplying the number of Annuity Units for that Series by the Annuity Unit
value for that Series for the Valuation Period in which the first payment for
the year is due. It will be Security First Life's practice to mail Variable
Annuity payments no later than seven days after the last day of the Valuation
Period upon which they are based or the monthly anniversary thereof.

Annuity Unit Values

The value of an Annuity Unit was, or will be, set at $5 for each Series for the
first Valuation Period as of which the first Variable Annuity payment from such
Series is made. The value of an Annuity Unit for each Series on any later date
is determined by multiplying the value of an Annuity Unit at the end of the
preceding Valuation Period by the "Annuity change factor" for the second
preceding Valuation Period. The Annuity change factor is an adjusted measurement
of the investment performance of the Fund since the end of the preceding
Valuation Period. The Annuity change factor is determined by dividing the value
of an Accumulation Unit at the end of the Valuation Period by the value of an
Accumulation Unit at the end of the preceding Valuation Period and multiplying
the result by a neutralization factor.

Variable Annuity payments for each year after the first reflect variations in
the investment performance of the Separate Account above and below an assumed
investment rate (see below). This assumed investment rate is included for
purposes of actuarial computations and does not relate to the actual investment
performance of the underlying fund. Therefore, the assumed investment rate must
be "neutralized" in computing the Annuity change factor. For weekly Valuation
Periods and a 4.25% assumed investment rate, the neutralization factor is
0.9991999.

Alternate Assumed Investment Rates

The choice of the assumed investment rate affects the pattern of Annuity
payments. Over a period of time, if the Separate Account achieved a net
investment result equal to the assumed investment rate applicable to a
particular option, the Annuity Unit would not change in value, and the amount of
the Annuity payments would be level. However, if the Separate Account 


                                       7
<PAGE>   32

achieved a net investment result greater than the assumed investment rate, the
Annuity Unit would increase in value and the amount of the Annuity payments
would increase each year. Similarly, if the Separate Account achieved a net
investment result smaller than the assumed investment rate, the Annuity Unit
would decrease in value and the amount of the Annuity payments would decrease
each year. Although a higher initial payment would be received under a higher
assumed investment rate, there is a point in time after which payments under a
lower assumed investment rate would be greater, assuming payments continue
through that point in time. The effect of a higher or lower assumed investment
rate can be summarized as follows: a higher assumed investment rate will result
in a larger initial payment but more slowly rising or more rapidly falling
subsequent payments than a lower assumed investment rate.

The objective of a variable annuity contract is to provide level payments during
periods when the economy is relatively stable and to reflect as increased
payments only the excess of investment results flowing from inflation or an
increase in productivity. The achievement of this objective will depend in part
upon the validity of the assumption that the net investment rate of the Separate
Account equals the assumed investment rate during periods of stable prices.
Subsequent years' payments will be smaller than, equal to or greater than the
first year's payments depending on whether the actual net investment rate for
the Separate Account is smaller than, equal to or greater than the assumed
investment rate.

ADDITIONAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION

Qualified Plans

Certain tax advantages are available when the Contract is issued under a
retirement plan which meets the qualification requirements of sections 401, 403,
or 408 of the Code ("qualified plan"). Further information regarding federal
income tax aspects of the various types of qualified plans is set forth below.

Public School Systems, Churches and Certain Tax-Exempt Organizations

Under section 403(b) of the Code, purchase payments made to purchase annuities
by public school systems, churches, or certain tax-exempt organizations for
their employees are excludable from the gross income of the employee to the
extent that aggregate purchase payments for the employee do not exceed certain
limitations imposed by the Code.

Pension, Profit-Sharing, and Annuity Plans for Corporations and Unincorporated
Businesses

If a Participant dies after distributions have commenced, the remaining portion
of his or her interest must continue to be distributed at least as rapidly as
under the schedule used prior to death. If distributions have not commenced
before death, the entire interest must be distributed within five years of the
Participant's death except the interest may be distributed for the life or a
period not exceeding the life expectancy of a designated beneficiary in
substantially equal payments commencing no later than one year after the
Participant's death. If the designated beneficiary is the surviving spouse,
distributions may be postponed until the date the Participant would have been 70
1/2. If the surviving spouse dies before distributions commence, the
distribution rules will apply as if he or she were the Participant.

A pension or profit sharing plan established by any kind of organization which
primarily benefits "key employees" (known as a "top-heavy" plan) will be subject
to special rules on: vesting; minimum contributions and benefits for non-key
employees; compensation which may be taken into account to determine
contributions or benefits for key employees; the aggregate limit on
contributions and benefits; and rollovers.


                                       8
<PAGE>   33

The tax treatment of pension and profit sharing plans established by
self-employed individuals (known as "Keogh" or "H.R. 10" plans) is essentially
the same as corporate plans. Some special restrictions apply to self-employed
individuals who are "owner-employees." An owner employee is a sole proprietor or
a partner who owns more than a 10% capital or profits interest in the
partnership.

Additionally, the definition of a lump sum distribution for a self-employed
individual does not include a distribution on account of separation from
service, but does include a distribution on account of total disability.

Eligible Deferred Compensation (section 457) Plans

The Code permits employees and independent contractors of state and local
government units and tax-exempt organizations under "eligible deferred
compensation plans" to defer compensation up to certain amounts.

In the case of a section 457 plan, the employer is the owner of the Contract and
has all of the rights and powers attributable to such ownership. These include
the exclusive right to partially or fully terminate any Participant's Account
under such a Contract and to receive all payments under the Contract, including
Annuity payments. Employees participating in such plans are referred to as
Participants in such Contracts and in this prospectus solely for the purpose of
establishing a method of recording allocations applicable to such employees'
accounts. Such employees have no elective rights under the Contracts.

Employees receiving amounts under such section 457 plans from their employers
include such amounts in income in the year they are received or made available
and pay ordinary income taxes thereon. Amounts may not be made available to any
employee except upon separation from service or for an unforeseeable emergency.

In the case of a section 457 plan for a tax-exempt organization, the following
provisions apply: (a) the Contract value must be distributed or annuity payments
commenced by April 1 of the calendar year following the later of the calendar
year in which the employee retires or attains age 70 1/2, (b) annuity payments
are limited to a period not exceeding the life (lives) or life expectancy
(expectancies) of the employee (and a designated beneficiary), (c) the benefits
will be subject to minimum incidental benefit distribution requirements and (d)
if the employee dies before his or her entire interest has been distributed, any
amount remaining will be distributed to the designated beneficiary at least as
rapidly as during the employee's life. In the case of section 457 plans of state
and local governments where joint and survivor benefits commence before death,
the amount payable to the employee must exceed one-half of the maximum that
could have been payable to the employee if there were no joint annuitant.

Individual Retirement Annuities ("IRAs")

Any individual is permitted to establish an individual retirement arrangement
described in section 408 of the Code. Of these, only the individual retirement
Annuity described in section 408(b) is available in connection with the
Contract.

Purchase payments for an IRA may be made by an individual, under the age of 70
1/2, up to the lesser of $2,000 or 100% of gross annual compensation. If the
individual (or spouse filing a joint return) is an active participant in a
qualified plan, the full amount of the IRA contribution may be deducted only if
adjusted gross income does not exceed (a) $25,000 for an individual return, (b)
$40,000 for a joint return and (c) $0 for a married person filing a separate
return. As adjusted gross income increases over these amounts, the deductible
amount decreases. An 


                                       9
<PAGE>   34

individual filing a joint return with a spouse under the age of 70 1/2, who has
no compensation during the year or elects to be treated as having no
compensation, can purchase an IRA contract for his or her spouse ("spousal
IRA"). The total annual contribution is limited to $2,250 or 100% of the working
spouse's compensation for the year. A divorced or legally separated spouse may
continue annual contributions to his or her spousal IRA up to $2,000 or 100% of
his or her annual compensation.

The annual limits on purchase payments do not apply to tax-free rollovers to an
IRA from another qualified retirement plan. An individual can roll over: all or
a portion of a termination or lump sum, or partial distribution from a section
401(a) plan, excluding nondeductible employee contributions; all or a portion of
a lump sum or partial distribution from a section 403(b) Annuity plan; or all or
a portion of a distribution received from another IRA or from an individual
retirement account or bond, but only once a year. An individual must make a
tax-free rollover to the IRA within 60 days after receiving the distribution
from the other plan.

The IRA contracts will be nontransferable and nonforfeitable. Distributions must
commence no later than April 1 of the year following the year in which the
individual attains age 70 1/2; otherwise each year a 50% nondeductible excise
tax will apply to the difference between what was actually paid out and the
minimum amount required to be distributed each year. The entire interest in the
Contract must be distributed within the first year, or over the life of the
individual or the joint lives of the individual and a designated beneficiary or
over a period certain not extending beyond the individual's life expectancy or
the joint life expectancy of the individual and a designated beneficiary. All
distributions will be taxed as ordinary income when received, except for the
portion of each distribution which bears the same ratio to the distribution as
the total nondeductible IRA contributions bears to the total IRA contributions.

Any distribution made before the individual reaches age 59 1/2 will be penalized
by a 10% additional income tax on the amount of the distribution, unless made by
reason of death or disability. Borrowing under the Contract or pledging the
Contract as security for a loan will be deemed to be a distribution of the full
market value of the Contract as of that day. The distribution-at-death rules for
an IRA are the same as for a section 401(a) plan except that the individual's
beneficiary or estate is not allowed the normal exclusion of up to $5,000.

Withholding on Annuity Payments and Other Distributions

Security First Life is required to withhold federal income tax on Contract
distributions (such as Annuity payments, lump sum distributions or partial
surrenders). However, recipients of Contract distributions are allowed to make
an election not to have federal income tax withheld. After such election is made
with respect to Annuity payments, an Annuitant may revoke the election at any
time, and thereafter commence withholding. In such a case, Security First Life
will notify the payee at least annually of his or her right to change such
election.

The withholding rate followed by Security First Life will be applied only
against the taxable portion of Contract distributions. Federal tax will be
withheld from Annuity payments pursuant to the recipient's withholding
certificate. If no withholding certificate is filed with Security First Life,
federal tax will be withheld from Annuity payments on the basis that the payee
is married with three withholding exemptions. Federal tax on the taxable portion
of a partial or total surrender (i.e., non-periodic distribution) generally will
be withheld at a flat 10% rate. In the case of a plan qualified under Sections
401(a) or 403(a) of the Code, if the balance to the credit of a participant in a
plan is distributed within one taxable year to the recipient ("total
distribution") the amount of withholding will approximate the federal income tax
on a lump sum distribution. If a total distribution is made from such a plan or
a tax-


                                       10
<PAGE>   35

sheltered annuity contract on account of the Participant's death, the amount of
withholding will reflect the exclusion from federal income tax for
employer-provided death benefits.

Security First Life is required to withhold 20% of certain taxable amounts
constituting "eligible rollover distributions" to participants (including lump
sum distributions) in retirement plans under Code Section 401 and tax deferred
annuities under Code Section 402(b). This withholding requirement does not apply
to distributions from such plans and annuities in the form of a life and life
expectancy annuity (individual or joint), an annuity with a designated period of
10 years or more, or any distribution required by the minimum distributions
requirements of Code Section 401(a)(9). Withholding on these latter types of
distribution will continue to be made under the rules described in the prior
paragraph. A participant cannot elect out of the 20% withholding requirement.
However, if an eligible rollover distribution is rolled over into an eligible
retirement plan or IRA in a direct trustee-to-trustee transfer, no withholding
will be required.

Payees are required by law to provide Security First Life (as payor) with their
correct taxpayer identification number ("TIN"). If the payee is an individual,
the TIN is his or her social security number. If the payee elects not to have
federal income tax withheld on an Annuity payment or a non-periodic distribution
and a correct TIN has not been provided, such election is ineffective, and such
payment will be subject to withholding as noted above.

Obtaining Tax Advice

It should be recognized that the federal income tax information in this
Statement of Additional Information is not exhaustive and is for information
purposes only. The description does not purport to cover all situations
involving the purchase of an Annuity or the election of an option under the
Contract. Tax results may vary depending upon individual situations and special
rules may apply in certain cases. State and local tax results may also vary. For
these reasons a qualified tax adviser should be consulted.

UNDERWRITERS, DISTRIBUTION OF THE CONTRACTS

   
The Contracts will be sold as a continuous offering by individuals who are
appropriately licensed as insurance agents of Security First Life for the sale
of life insurance and Variable Annuity Contracts in the state where the sale is
made. In addition, these individuals will be registered representatives of the
principal underwriter, Security First Financial, Inc., or of other
broker-dealers registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 whose
registered representatives are authorized by applicable law to sell Variable
Annuity Contracts issued by Security First Life. Commissions on sales of
contracts range from 0% to 8.5%. Agents are paid from the General Account of
Security First Life. Such commissions bear no direct relationship to any of the
charges under the Contracts. It is expected that the Contracts will be sold in
30 states. No direct underwriting commissions are paid to Security First
Financial, Inc.
    

VOTING RIGHTS

Unless otherwise restricted by the plan under which a Contract is issued each
Owner will have the right to instruct Security First Life with respect to voting
the Fund shares which are the assets underlying his interest in the Separate
Account, at all regular and special shareholders meetings. An Annuitant's voting
power with respect to Fund shares held by the Separate Account declines during
the time he is receiving a Variable Annuity based on the investment performance
of the Separate Account, because amounts attributable to his interest are being
transferred annually to the General Account to provide the variable payments.

SAFEKEEPING OF SECURITIES

All assets of the Separate Account are held in custody of Security First Life.
The assets of each Separate Account Series will be kept physically segregated by
Security First Life and held separate from the assets of any other firm, person,
or corporation. Additional protection for the assets of the Separate Account is
afforded by fidelity bonds covering all of Security First Life's officers and
employees.

SERVICING AGENT

   
An administrative services agreement has been entered into between Security
First Life and SFG under which the latter has agreed to perform certain of the
administrative services relating to the Contracts and for the Separate Account.
SFG performs substantially all of the recordkeeping and administrative services
for the Separate Account.
    

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The financial statements of Security First Life Insurance Company and Security
First Life Separate Account A included in this Statement of Additional

independent auditors, for the periods indicated in their reports thereon which
appears elsewhere herein and in the Registration Statement. The financial
statements audited by Ernst & Young LLP have been included in reliance on their

LEGAL MATTERS

   
Legal matters concerning federal securities laws applicable to the issue and

STATE REGULATION OF SECURITY FIRST LIFE

   
Security First Life is subject to the laws of the state of Delaware governing
insurance companies and to regulation by the Delaware Commissioner of Insurance.
An annual statement, in a prescribed form, is filed with the Commissioner on or
before March 1 each year covering the operations of Security First Life for the
preceding year and its financial condition on December 31 of such year. Security
First Life's books and assets are subject to review or examination by the
Commissioner or his agents at all times, and a full examination of its
operations is usually conducted by the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners at least once in every three years. Security First Life was last
examined as of December 31, 1993. While Delaware insurance law prescribes
permissible investments for Security First Life, it does not prescribe
permissible investments for the Separate Account, nor does it involve
supervision of the investment management or policy of Security First Life.
    

In addition, Security First Life is subject to the insurance laws and
regulations of other jurisdictions in which it is licensed to operate. State
insurance laws generally provide regulations for the licensing of insurers and
their agents, govern the financial affairs of insurers, require approval of
policy forms, impose reserve requirements and require filing of an annual
statement. Generally, the insurance departments of these other jurisdictions
apply the laws of Delaware in determining permissible investments for Security
First Life.

                         Report of Independent Auditors


To the Board of Directors
Security First  Life Insurance Company
         and Contract Owners
Security First Life Separate Account A

   
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the schedules of investments, of Security First Life Separate Account A
(comprised of Series B, G, T, P, I, FA, FG, FI, FO, FM, SU, SV, and commencing
on May 16, 1995, Series FC, commencing on May 22, 1995, Series AS and SI, and
commencing on May 25, 1995, Series FE) as of December 31, 1995, and the related
statements of operations for the year or period then ended and changes in net
assets for each of the two years or periods then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Separate Account's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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 financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 1995, by correspondence with
the respective mutual fund managers. 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
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Security First Life Separate
Account A (comprised of the above referenced Series) at December 31, 1995, the
results of their operations for the year or period then ended, and the changes
in their net assets for each of the two years or periods then ended, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

SECURITY FIRST LIFE SEPARATE ACCOUNT A

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 1995

NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Security First Life Separate Account A (Separate Account) was established on May
29, 1980, as a separate account of Security First Life Insurance Company
(Security Life), the sponsor company, and is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 as a unit investment trust. The Separate Account is designed
to provide annuity benefits pursuant to certain variable annuity contracts (the
Contracts) issued by Security Life.

In accordance with the terms of the Contracts, all payments allocated to the
Separate Account by the contract owners must be allocated to purchase shares of
any or all of four series of Security First Trust (the Trust), a Massachusetts
business trust, and twelve mutual funds (investment companies). The series of
the Trust are Bond Series, Growth and Income Series, Value Equity Series, and
U.S. Government Income Series and the mutual funds are T. Rowe Price Growth
Stock Fund, Inc., T. Rowe Price Prime Reserve Fund, Inc., T. Rowe Price
International Stock Fund, Inc., Alger American Small Capitalization Portfolio,
Scudder International Fund, and Fidelity Investments: VIP Asset Manager, VIP
Growth Portfolio, VIP Index 500, VIP Overseas Portfolio, VIP Contra Fund, VIP
Equity Income Portfolio and VIP Money Market Fund. The Trust and the (investment
companies) are registered as diversified, open-end management investment
companies under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Separate Account is
correspondingly divided into sixteen series of Accumulation Units, Series B, G,
SU, SV, T, P, I, AS, SI, FA, FG, FI, FO, FC, FE and FM, relating to investments
in each of the investment companies, respectively. For the year ended December
31, 1994 and prior, assets held by certain Series (SF 135R2S contracts) were
reported separately in the financial statements. For the year ended December 31,
1995 these contracts were combined with the other contracts that shared the same
series.

All series of the Trust receive administrative services for a fee from Security
First Investment Management Corporation (Security Management). Security First
Financial, Inc. is the principal underwriter for the Contracts. Security Life,
Security Management, and Security First Financial, Inc. are wholly-owned
subsidiaries of Security First Group, Inc. Investment advice is provided to the
Security First Trust Bond Series and Growth and Income Series by T. Rowe Price
Associates, Inc. and to the Security First Trust Value Equity and U. S.
Government Income Series by Virtus Capital Management.

SECURITY FIRST LIFE SEPARATE ACCOUNT A

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)

The Separate Account and each series therein are administered and accounted for
as part of the business of Security Life, but the investment income and capital
gains and losses of each Separate Account series are identified with the assets
held for that series in accordance with the terms of the Contracts, without
regard to investment income and capital gains and losses arising out of any
other business Security Life may conduct.

The Separate Account incurs no liability for remuneration to directors, advisory
boards, officers or such other persons who may from time to time perform
services for the Separate Account.

NOTE 2 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS -- Investments are carried at market value, which is
determined by multiplying the investment company's shares owned by the Separate
Account by the reported net asset value per share of each respective investment
company. Realized investment gains and losses are determined on the first-in,
first-out cost basis.

EXPENSES AND CHARGES -- The Separate Account accrues charges incurred for the
mortality and expense risk assumed by Security Life. The charges are calculated
daily by multiplying the value of the assets of the Separate Account by the
daily mortality and expense risk rate. Security Life has the option of calling
for payment of such charges at any time. The following table illustrates the
rates for the respective contracts:

</TABLE>


The following charges are deducted from a contract holder's account by Security
Life as a capital transaction by reducing the separate account units held, and
such charges are not an expense of the Separate Account. An administration
charge (contract charge) is deducted from each contract and paid to Security
Life at the end of each contract year prior to the annuity date, and when the
entire contract value is withdrawn on any date other than a contract
anniversary. In the event that a participant withdraws

SECURITY FIRST LIFE SEPARATE ACCOUNT A

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

NOTE 3 -- FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The operations of the Separate Account form a part of, and are taxed with, the
operations of Security Life, which is taxed as a "life insurance company" under
the Internal Revenue Code, and as such, Security Life is liable for income
taxes, if any, which become payable with respect to the Separate Account's
operations.

Separate accounts are generally required to meet certain diversification
requirements for their assets. However, separate accounts which solely provide
benefits for "pension plan contracts" are exempt from the diversification
requirements. Pension plan contracts include: (i) tax qualified plans; (ii)
employee annuities; (iii) plans for employees of life insurance companies; (iv)
tax sheltered annuities of exempt organizations; (v) individual retirement
accounts or annuities, and (vi) deferred compensation plans of certain
governmental or tax-exempt organizations. The Contracts issued by Security Life
are offered in connection with both pension plan contracts and non-qualified
contracts, therefore the Separate Account is subject to the diversification
requirements. Management believes that the Separate Account has met the
diversification requirements.

NOTE 6 -- SECURITY FIRST TRUST - MONEY MARKET SERIES INVESTMENT OPTION

Effective January 31, 1994, the Security First Trust Money Market Series (Series
M) was closed and liquidated. Policyholders were notified of this and allowed to
transfer their funds. The Fidelity Investments VIP Money Market Fund has similar
investment objectives and many policyholders elected to transfer their Security
First Trust Money Market investments into it.

                         Report of Independent Auditors

Board of Directors
Security First Life Insurance Company

   
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Security First
Life 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
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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 financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Security First
Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
consolidated 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 Notes 3 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements, Security
First Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries made certain accounting changes in
1994 and 1993.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1994

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION -- Security First Life Insurance Company (Security First
Life) and subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) is a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Security First Group, Inc. (SFG), formerly The Holden Group, Inc. SFG has
been a wholly-owned subsidiary of London Insurance Group, Inc. (LIG) since May
1994. The Company sells a broad range of fixed and variable annuity contracts.
The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) which vary in some respects from
statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by regulatory authorities
(statutory basis) and include the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries,
Fidelity Standard Life Insurance Company (Fidelity Standard Life) and Security
First Life Insurance Company of Arizona (SFL-Arizona). All significant
intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated in consolidation.

INVESTMENTS -- Investments are reported on the following bases:

     Fixed Maturities:

         Available-for-sale -- at fair value, which differs from the amortized
         cost of such investments. Unrealized gains and losses on these
         investments (net of related adjustments for deferred policy acquisition
         costs and applicable deferred income taxes) are credited or charged to
         stockholder's equity and, accordingly, have no effect on net income.

         Held-for-investment -- at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium or
         accretion of discount and other-than-temporary declines in fair value.
         The amortized cost of such investments differs from their fair values.
         See Note 3 regarding the reclassification in 1995 of
         held-for-investment securities to available-for-sale.

         For those fixed maturities which are mortgage-backed, the Company
         recognizes income using a constant effective yield based on anticipated
         prepayments and the estimated economic life of the securities. When
         actual prepayments differ significantly from anticipated prepayments,
         the effective yield is recalculated to reflect actual payments to date
         and anticipated future payments. The net investment in the security is
         adjusted to the amount that would have existed had the new effective
         yield been applied since the acquisition of the security. Such
         adjustment is included in net investment income.

         The Company does not maintain a trading portfolio, or at December 31,
         1995, a held-for-investment portfolio.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

     Equity securities (common and non-redeemable preferred stocks) -- at fair
     value if publicly traded. Changes in fair values of equity securities, net
     of applicable deferred income taxes, are reported as unrealized gains or
     losses directly in stockholder's equity and, accordingly, have no effect on
     net income.

     Investment real estate -- at lower of cost less accumulated depreciation or
     fair value.

     Mortgage loans and policy loans -- at unpaid balances.

     Short-term investments -- at cost, which approximates fair value.

     Realized gains and losses on disposal of investments are determined on a
     specific identification basis.

CASH EQUIVALENTS -- Cash equivalents consist of investments in money market
funds. The carrying amount of cash equivalents approximates fair value.

DEFERRED POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS -- As of January 1, 1995, the Company adopted
the account value deposit method of reporting on two-tier annuities (those
annuities that have a different interest credited rate for annuitization as
compared to withdrawal). The Company had previously adopted this method for
single-tier annuities. Under this method, commissions and other costs of
acquiring annuities that vary with and are primarily related to the acquisition
of such business are included in deferred policy acquisition costs. Prior to
that date, certain commission costs for two-tier annuities were reported as a
component of policyholder liabilities. As a result of this change, deferred
policy acquisition costs and policyholder liabilities increased by $38,590,000
on January 1, 1995 with no effect on stockholder's equity. Additionally, the
presentation of certain revenue and expense items in the consolidated statement
of income for the year ended December 31, 1995 has been effected by this change
with no significant impact on net income.

Deferred policy acquisition costs are being amortized in proportion to the
present value of estimated future gross margins which includes the impact of
realized investment gains and losses.

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

POLICYHOLDER LIABILITIES -- As indicated previously, the Company adopted the
account value deposit method for reporting on two-tier annuities as of January
1, 1995. Under this method, the policyholder liabilities for two-tier annuities
are the lower tier account values. Prior to that date, policyholder liabilities
for the Company's two-tier fixed annuity products were calculated using a
prospective approach. Under the prospective approach, the policyholder liability
was equal to the present value of future benefits using a "break-even" discount
rate which resulted in no gain or loss when a policy was issued. This method
allowed profits to emerge in relation to the difference between actual
investment earnings and the break-even discount rate used in the calculation of
the policyholder liabilities. Policyholder liabilities for the Company's
single-tier fixed annuity products are the account values.

The fair value of policyholder liabilities is estimated assuming all
policyholders surrender their policies. The carrying amounts and estimated fair
values are as follows (in thousands):

     December 31, 1994                                       1,790,456                   1,760,999
</TABLE>


NOTES PAYABLE -- Notes payable are carried at their unpaid balances which
approximate fair value because the interest rates on these notes approximate
market rates.

INCOME TAXES -- The Company files consolidated federal income tax returns with
SFG. Income taxes are provided on the basis as if the companies filed
separately.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases. Such differences are related principally to the deferral of policy
acquisition costs, the valuation of fixed maturities and the provision for
policyholder liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using
enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect
on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period that includes the enactment date.

SEPARATE ACCOUNTS -- The assets held in separate accounts represent funds which
are separately administered by the Company pursuant to variable annuity
contracts. The liabilities related to separate accounts consist of policyholder
liabilities for variable annuities. The separate account assets and liabilities
are reported at fair value. The Company receives a fee for administrative
services provided to the separate accounts. Investment risks associated with
fair value changes are borne by the contract holders.

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

ANNUITY REVENUES AND BENEFITS -- Annuity product income represents fees earned
from policyholders of annuity contracts, including surrender charges,
annuitization charges and administration fees. Benefits in excess of
policyholder liabilities consists of the difference between the policyholder
account values surrendered or annuitized during the period and the related
policyholder liability balances.

ESTIMATES -- Certain amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements are based on management's best estimates and judgments.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD -- In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) issued a new standard on accounting for long-lived assets which are
impaired or to be disposed of. The Company must adopt the standard by 1996. The
standard requires that an impaired long-lived asset be measured based on the
fair value of the asset to be held and used or the fair value less cost to sell
the asset to be disposed of. When adopted, this standard is not expected to have
a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the
Company.

RECLASSIFICATIONS -- Certain reclassifications of prior-year amounts have been
made to conform with current-year classifications.

The difference between statutory-basis net income (loss) and net income reported
based on GAAP relates primarily to different reserving methods used to calculate
policyholder liabilities, the recognition of deferred policy acquisition costs
and deferred income taxes.

Security First Life and Fidelity Standard Life are incorporated and domiciled in
Delaware. SFL-Arizona is incorporated and domiciled in Arizona. The payment of
dividends by Security First Life and each of its subsidiaries is subject to
statutory limitations which are based on each company's statutory-basis net
income and surplus levels. At December 31, 1995, the maximum amount of dividends
Security First Life could pay SFG without prior approval from state insurance
regulatory authorities is $9,762,000.

NOTE 3 -- INVESTMENTS

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 (SFAS
No. 115), Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, as
of January 1, 1994. In accordance with SFAS No. 115, prior period financial
statements were not restated to reflect the change in accounting principle. The
cumulative effect as of January 1, 1994 of adopting SFAS No. 115 was an increase
in stockholder's equity of $28,618,000 -- net of related adjustments for
deferred policy acquisition costs of $62,166,000 which was recorded as an
adjustment to policyholder liabilities and deferred income taxes of $14,743,000
- -- to reflect the net unrealized gains on securities previously carried at
amortized cost. There was no effect on net income as a result of the adoption of
SFAS No. 115.

In November 1995, the FASB issued a Special Report, A Guide to Implementation of
Statement 115 on Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities. In accordance with provisions in that Special Report, the Company
chose to reclassify securities from held-for-investment to available-for-sale.
At the date of transfer, the amortized cost of those securities was $169,879,000
and the unrealized gain on those securities was $2,291,000, which is included in
stockholder's equity.

Unrealized investment gains and losses reported in the accompanying financial
statements are as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 3 -- INVESTMENTS (continued)

The Company has recorded a valuation reserve for possible other-than-temporary
impairment in the value of fixed maturities of $2,000,000 at December 31, 1995
and 1994.

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to fixed maturities are limited due
to the large number of issues owned and their dispersion across many different
industries and geographic areas. Accordingly, at December 31, 1995, the Company
had no significant concentration of credit risk.

The fair values for fixed maturities and equity securities are primarily based
on values obtained from independent pricing services.

The cost of equity securities was $5,214,000 and $6,177,000 on December 31, 1995
and 1994, respectively.

Investment real estate is net of accumulated depreciation of $1,596,000 and
$1,538,000 as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, and a $2,250,000
provision for decline in fair value at those dates.

The carrying amount of mortgage loans ($945,000 and $934,000 at December 31,
1995 and 1994, respectively) and policy loans ($17,853,000 and $15,305,000 at
December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively) approximates fair value because the
interest rates on these loans approximate market rates.

The Company places its temporary cash investments with high-credit quality
financial institutions and, by corporate policy, limits the amount of credit
exposure to any one financial institution.

At December 31, 1995, investment securities having an amortized cost of
$10,561,000 were on deposit with various states in accordance with state
insurance department requirements.

SECURITY FIRST LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

NOTE 7 -- COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND RISKS

The Company has forward contracts with commitments to purchase mortgage-backed
securities with total par values of $25,500,000 at December 31, 1995. The
Company uses these contracts to hedge the interest rate risk on future
investments that match policyholder liabilities, primarily related to
guaranteed-rate products. Gains or losses realized on such contracts are
included in the carrying value of the underlying anticipated investment. The
Company is subject to the risk that the counterparties to such contracts would
fail to deliver the securities to the Company on settlement date, if the Company
were to hold the contract on that date. The Company's current cash balances and
expected future cash flows are sufficient to settle the commitments under these
forward contracts.

Included in the accompanying balance sheet are assets of $6,000,000 at December
31, 1995 related to The Capitol Life Insurance Company (CLICO) and its parent.
CLICO is currently operating under supervision by the Colorado Division of
Insurance. The Company anticipates that CLICO will continue as an ongoing
enterprise. However, there can be no certainty that this will occur.

NOTE 8 -- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company has marketing and administrative agreements with SFG and previously
with its subsidiary, Holden Financial Company, under which these companies
provide all of the Company's marketing and policyholder administration services.
Amounts incurred under these agreements were $38,954,000, $31,183,000 and
$26,026,000 for 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

The Company has management agreements with SFG under which the latter provides
certain personnel, administrative services and office space. Amounts incurred
under these agreements were $4,308,000 in 1995 and 1994 and $4,248,000 in 1993.

The Company has investment advisory agreements with Security First Investment
Management Corporation, a subsidiary of SFG. Fees of $4,756,000, $4,508,000 and
$4,067,000 were paid in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively, pursuant to these
agreements.
