EXPLANATION OF FEE TABLE AND EXAMPLES
1. The purpose of these tables and examples is to assist you in understanding
the various costs and expenses that you 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 ____.
2. Security First Life has determined to voluntarily waive its administration
fee to .10% per year. Absent this waiver, the fee would have been .15% per
year. This may be terminated at any time, but any change in this waiver
will not affect Certificates issued prior to the change.
3. A portion of the brokerage commissions that certain funds pay was used to
reduce fund expenses. In addition, through arrangements with certain
funds', or FMR on behalf of certain funds', custodian, credits realized as
a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a portion of each
applicable fund 's expenses. Without these reductions, the total operating
expenses presented in the table would have been .57% for Equity-Income
Portfolio, .66% for Growth Portfolio, .91% for Overseas Portfolio, .63%
for Asset Manager Portfolio, .67% for Contrafund Portfolio, .71% for Asset
Manager: Growth Portfolio, .57% for Balanced Portfolio, .69% for Growth
Opportunities Portfolio, and .60% for Growth & Income Portfolio.
FMR agreed to reimburse a portion of Index 500 Portfolio's and Mid Cap
Portfolio's expenses during the period. Without this reimbursement, the
Portfolios' management fee, other expenses and total expenses would gave
been .24%, .10%, .34% and .57%, 2.77% and 3.34%, respectively.
4. The examples assume that there were no transactions that would result in
the imposition of a Transaction Charge (other than in connection with the
assumed redemption or annuitization at the end of the periods shown).
Contract Maintenance Charges, which vary from $30 to $52.50 annually
depending on how many Series the Participant has invested in, are not
reflected in the examples because they are currently waived. Premium taxes
are not reflected. Presently, premium taxes ranging from 0% to 2.35% (3.5%
in Nevada) may be deducted from each Purchase Payment, or upon
annuitization. Until further notice, Security First Life absorbs these
charges.
5. The examples reflect the fact that a purchase payment withdrawn at the end
of a 1 year period will necessarily be withdrawn in the calendar year
following the calendar year of the purchase payment and thus will incur a
surrender charge of 6% rather than the maximum of 7%. Similarly, the data
for the 3-year periods reflect a surrender charge of 4%.
6. THE EXAMPLES ARE NOT REPRESENTATIONS OF PAST OR FUTURE EXPENSES. ACTUAL
EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN THOSE SHOWN
CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

FINANCIAL AND PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
From time to time, Security First may advertise the performance of a Series.
This performance information may include:
- the yield and effective yield of Series invested in the Money
Market Portfolio of the Separate Account
- average annual total returns for the other Series of the
Separate Account.
Yield is the net income generated by an investment in the Money Market Portfolio
for a specific seven-day period, expressed as a percentage of the value of the
Series' Accumulation Units. Yield is an annualized figure, which means that
Security First Life assumes that the Series will generate the same level of net
income over a one-year period and compounds that income on a semi-annual basis.
Because of the assumed compounding, the Money Market Series' effective yield
will be slightly higher than its yield. The computation of yield reflects all
recurring
19
<PAGE>
changes under the Contract to all Participants' Account, including the mortality
and expense risk charge and the administrative expense charge. Yield does not
reflect the possible imposition of early withdrawal charges. Early withdrawal
charges would reduce your performance experience.
Annual return measures the net income of a Series and any realized or unrealized
gains or losses of the underlying investments in the Series, over the period
stated. Average annual total return figures are annualized and, therefore,
represent the average annual percentage change in the value of an investment in
a Series over the period stated. Average annual total returns are expressed for
at least one, five and ten year periods (or from a Series' inception if the
Series has been in existence for less than ten years).
The computation of average annual total returns reflects all recurring charges
and applicable fees under the Contract to all Participants' Accounts, including
the following:
- the mortality and expense risk charge,
- the administrative expense charge, and
- the applicable early surrender charge that may be charged at
the end of the period in question.
[SIDE BAR: All performance numbers are based upon historical earnings. These
numbers are not intended to indicate future results. Yields and average annual
total returns are determined in accordance with the computation methods required
by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in the Form N-4
Registration Statement. These methods are described in detail in the Statement
of Additional Information.]
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Financial Statements of the Separate Account and Security First Life are
contained in the Statement of Additional Information. Please see the first page
of this Prospectus for information on how to obtain a copy of the Statement.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITY FIRST LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, THE GENERAL ACCOUNT, THE
SEPARATE ACCOUNT, THE FUNDS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS
SECURITY FIRST LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
Security First Life is a stock life insurance company founded in 1960 and
organized under the laws of the State of Delaware. Its principal executive
offices are located at 11365 West Olympic Boulevard, Los Angeles, California
90064. Security First Life is authorized to transact the business of life
insurance, including annuities, and is currently licensed to do business in 49
states and the District of Columbia.
20
<PAGE>
Security First Life is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Security First Group, Inc.
("SFG"). SFG in turn is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Metropolitan Life Insurance
Company ("MetLife"), a New York life insurance company.
MetLife, a wholly owned subsidiary of MetLife, Inc., a publicly traded company,
is a leading provider of insurance and financial services to a broad spectrum of
individual and group customers. With approximately $420 billion worth of assets
under management as of December 31, 1999, MetLife provides individual insurance
and investment products to approximately 9 million households in the United
States.
THE GENERAL ACCOUNT
All of the assets of Security First Life, except for those in the Separate
Account and other segregated asset accounts, make up the assets of the General
Account. You may allocate amounts to the General Account when you purchase your
Contract or you may transfer amounts from the Separate Account at a later date.
Amounts allocated to the General Account are credited with interest at an
interest rate that is guaranteed by Security First Life. Instead of you bearing
the risk of fluctuations in the value of the assets as is the case for amounts
invested in the Separate Account, Security First Life bears the full investment
risk for amounts in the General Account. Security First Life 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. Please see the terms of the actual Contract for more
information.
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
Security First Life established the Separate Account on May 29, 1980 in
accordance with the Delaware Insurance Code. The purpose of the Separate Account
is to hold the variable assets that underlie the Contract and some other
variable annuity contract that Security First Life offers. The Separate Account
is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act.
The assets of the Separate Account are held in Security First Life's name on
behalf of the Separate Account and legally belong to Security First Life.
Although the Separate Account, and each of the Series that make up the Separate
Account, are considered as part of Security First Life's general business, the
Separate Account's assets are solely for the benefit of those who invest in the
Separate Account and no one else, including Security First Life's creditors. All
the income, gains and losses (realized and unrealized) resulting from these
assets are credited to or charged against the Contract issued from this Separate
Account without regard to Security First Life's other business. Under state law
and the terms of the Contract, the assets of the Separate Account will not be
responsible for liabilities arising out of Security First Life's other business.
Furthermore, Security First Life is obligated to pay all money it owes under the
Contract even if that amount exceeds the assets in the Separate Account.
However, the amount of these payments is guaranteed only to the extent of the
level amount calculated at the beginning of each annuity year.
21
<PAGE>
The Separate Account is divided into a number of investment Series of
Accumulation and Annuity Units. Ten of these Series are available under the
Contract as investment choices.
Each Series invests in the shares of only one of the Funds.
THE FUNDS

</TABLE>
Each Series buys and sells shares of the corresponding mutual fund. These Funds
invest in stocks, bonds and other investments as indicated above. All dividends
declared by the Funds are earned by the Separate Account and reinvested.
Therefore, no dividends are distributed to you under the Contract. Instead,
dividends generally increase the Accumulation or Annuity Unit Value. You pay no
transaction expenses (i.e., front-end or back-end load sales charges) as a
result of the Separate Account's purchase or sale of these mutual fund shares.
23
<PAGE>
The Funds listed above are available only by purchasing annuities and life
insurance policies offered by Security First Life or by other insurance
companies and are never sold directly to the public. The shares of each Fund are
purchased, without sales charge, for the corresponding Series at the next net
asset value per share determined by a Fund after your payment is received by
Security First Life. Fund shares will be redeemed by the Series to the extent
necessary for Security First Life to make annuity or other payments under the
Contract.
Each of the Funds is a portfolio or series of an open-end management investment
company registered with the SEC under the 1940 Act. Registration does not
involve supervision by the SEC of the investment or investment policies of the
Funds. There can be no guarantee that a Fund will meet its investment
objectives.
The Funds are available to other registered separate accounts offering variable
annuity and variable life products in addition to Security First Life's Separate
Account. In the future, a conflict may develop between one or more separate
accounts invested in the same Fund. The conflict could develop due to change in
the law affecting variable annuity products or from differences in voting
instructions of owners of the different separate accounts. Security First Life
monitors the Series for this type of conflict and will remedy the situation if
such a conflict develops. This may include the withdrawal of amounts invested in
the Funds by you and other Certificate holders.
[SIDE BAR: While the Series and their comparably named Funds may have names,
investment objectives and management which are identical or similar to publicly
available mutual funds, these are not those mutual funds. The Funds most likely
will not have the same performance experience as any publicly available mutual
fund.]
SUBSTITUTION OF FUND SHARES
Security First Life may substitute shares of another fund for Fund shares
directly purchased and apply future Purchase Payments under the Contract to the
purchase of these substituted shares if the shares of a Fund are no longer
available or further investment in such shares is determined to be inappropriate
by Security First Life's management in view of the purposes of the Contract.
However, no substitution is allowed unless a majority of the persons entitled to
vote (those who have invested in the Series) and the SEC approve the
substitution.
[SIDE BAR: The Funds are more fully described in the Fund prospectuses and
their Statements of Additional Information. The prospectuses are
distributed with this Prospectus. The Statements of Additional
Information are available upon your request.]

PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER
Security First Financial, Inc., 11365 West Olympic Boulevard, Los Angeles,
California 90064, a broker-dealer registered under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 and a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., is
the principal underwriter for the Contract. Security First Financial, Inc. is a
Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of SFG.
SERVICING AGENT
SFG provides Security First Life with administrative services, including: office
space, supplies, utilities, office equipment, travel expenses and periodic
reports.
CUSTODIAN
Security First Life is the custodian of the assets of the Separate Account. The
assets of each Series will be physically segregated by Security First Life and
held separate from the assets of the other Series and of any other firm, person
or corporation. The assets of the Separate Account are further protected by
fidelity bonds which cover all of Security First Life's officers and employees.
CONTRACT CHARGES
Security First Life deducts the charges described below. Security First Life
represents that the charges are reasonable for the service and benefits
provided, costs and expenses incurred, and risks assumed under the Contract.
SERVICES AND BENEFITS SECURITY FIRST LIFE PROVIDES INCLUDE:
- the ability for you to make withdrawals and surrenders under
the Contract;
- the death benefit paid at your death,
- the available funding options and related programs (including
dollar-cost averaging programs);
- administration of the annuity options available under the
Contract; and
- the distribution of various reports.
COSTS AND EXPENSES INCURRED BY SECURITY FIRST LIFE INCLUDE:
- losses associated with various overhead and other expenses
from providing the services and benefits under the Contract;
- sales and marketing expenses; and
- other costs of doing business.
25
<PAGE>
RISKS ASSUMED BY SECURITY FIRST LIFE INCLUDE:
- risks that Annuitants may live longer than estimated when the
annuity factors under the Contract were established;
- that the amount of the death benefit will be greater than the
Participant's Account; and
- that the costs of providing the services and benefits under
the Contract will exceed the charges deducted.
Security First Life may also deduct a charge for taxes, if applicable.
Unless otherwise specified, charges are deducted proportionately from all
funding options in which you are invested.
These charges may not be changed under the Contract, and Security First Life may
profit from these charges in the aggregate.
PREMIUM TAXES
Some states assess premium taxes on the Purchase Payments you make. Generally,
premium taxes range from 0% to 2.35% (3.50% in Nevada), depending on the state.
The Contract permit Security First Life to deduct any applicable premium taxes
from the Participant's Account at or after the time they are incurred. Security
First Life currently does not deduct for these taxes at the time you make a
Purchase Payment. However, Security First Life reserves our right to deduct the
total amount of premium taxes, if any, from the Participant's Account when you
elect to begin receiving Annuity payments (Annuitization).
SURRENDER CHARGE
No sales charge is deducted from any Purchase Payment. However, a surrender
charge (contingent deferred sales charge) may be imposed upon a partial or full
surrender of your Participant's Account. During the accumulation phase, you can
withdraw part or all of the Participant's Account. In the first surrender of
each year, you can withdraw up to 10% of your interest in the General Account
and the Separate Account free of surrender charges. If you withdraw money in
excess of 10%, you might have to pay a surrender charge on the excess amount.
Withdrawals from 403(b) plans may be restricted by the Code.
The following schedule shows the surrender charges that apply during the five
years following each Purchase Payment:
26
<PAGE>
- - 7% in 1st Certificate Year
- - 6% in 2nd Certificate Year
- - 5% in 3rd Certificate Year
- - 4% in 4th Certificate Year
- - 3% in 5th Certificate Year
- - 0% after the 5th Certificate Year
plus any transaction fee
The surrender charge is calculated by subtracting from the Series or General
Account from which you are withdrawing a Purchase Payment an amount determined
as follows:
the surrender amount
------------------------------------------------------
1 - the percentage surrender charge expressed as a decimal
Accumulation Units are canceled on a first-in, first-out basis. In no event will
a surrender charge imposed on Accumulation Units be more than 9% of Purchase
Payments allocated to the Separate Account. The effect of this varying schedule
of percentage charges is that amounts that you leave in the Separate Account for
longer periods of time are subject to a lower charge than amounts immediately
surrendered.
If you make a partial surrender, you will receive a check in the amount
requested. The surrender charge, if any, will be deducted from the Series from
which the partial surrender was taken. If the amount in a particular Series is
completely surrendered, the charge will be taken from the remaining Series in
which you have an interest.
Surrender charges will be eliminated when contracts are offered to officers,
directors, or full time employees of Security First Life.
EXCEPTIONS TO SURRENDER CHARGE
In some cases, Security First Life will not charge you the surrender charge when
you make a withdrawal. You do not pay the surrender charge:
- on transfers made within the Contract
- on withdrawals of Purchase payments you made over five years
ago
- If you withdraw no more than 10% of your interest in the
General and Separate Accounts
- If you are confined to a hospital for at least 30 consecutive
days or a skilled nursing home for at least 90 consecutive
days. The withdrawal must be in a lump sum and must be
requested within 60 days after termination of confinement
- When you are an officer, director or full time employee of
Security First Life or its affiliates. In this case, the
purchase of the Contract is for investment personal purposes
only
27
<PAGE>
ADMINISTRATION FEES
An administration fee of .10% (.000274% deducted daily from the assets of the
Separate Account) is deducted from your Account on a yearly basis. The fee is
prorated between Series in your Participant's Account based on their values on
the date of the deduction.
Contract administration expenses include:
- the cost of policy issuance
- rent
- stationery and postage
- telephone and travel expenses
- salaries
- legal, administrative, actuarial and accounting fees
- periodic reports
- office equipment, and custodial expenses
CONTRACT MAINTENANCE CHARGE
Security First Life may deduct a contract maintenance charge each year. This fee
will not exceed $27.50 plus $2.50 for each Series in which you have Accumulation
Units in your Participant's Account. The fee will be prorated between Series on
the basis of their respective values on the date of the deduction. Until further
notice, Security First Life will waive this fee. This waiver is permanent for
Certificates issued prior to the termination or change in this waiver.
TRANSACTION CHARGES
A $10 transaction charge will be deducted from your Account for each transfer
from a Series (See "Transfers" page ____) and upon annuitizaton of all or a
portion of your Account (see "Annuity Benefits" page _____). When you make a
full or partial surrender, a transaction charge will be deducted from your
Account in an amount equal to the lesser of:
- $10 OR
- 2% of the amount surrendered.
28
<PAGE>
These charges are at cost. Security First Life does not anticipate profiting
from them. As of March 8, 1993, transaction charges for transfers from one
series of the Separate Account to another series of the Separate Account will be
waived.
MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE
Security First Life charges a fee for bearing certain mortality and expense
risks under the policy. Examples of these risks include a guarantee of annuity
rates, the death benefits, and assuming the risk that the expense charges and
fees are less than actual administrative and operating expenses. As compensation
for assuming these risks, Security First Life will make a daily deduction from
the value of the Separate Account's assets equal to 1.25% per year.
If Security First Life has gains from the receipt of the mortality and expense
risk charges over its cost of assuming these risks, it may use the gains as it
sees fit. This may include the reduction of expenses incurred in distributing
the Contract.
Security First Life may voluntarily waive a portion of the mortality and
administration expense risk charges. Any waiver of these expenses may be
terminated at any time.
FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL TAXES
Security First Life may in the future deduct charges from the Participant's
Account for any taxes it incurs because of the Contract. However, no deductions
are being made at the present time.
[SIDE BAR: Please note that deductions are made and expenses paid out
of the underlying Funds' assets, as well. A description of these
fees and expenses are described in each Fund's prospectus which
follows this Prospectus.]
29
<PAGE>
FREE LOOK PERIOD
You may cancel your interest in the Contract within a certain time period. This
is known as a "free look." Your Free Look Period is the 20-day period (or longer
in certain states) starting when you receive your Certificate. If you decide to
cancel your Certificate, Security First Life must receive your request to cancel
in writing at its administrative office within the 20-day period. If the
Certificate is mailed to Security First Life, it will be considered to be
received on the postmark date. If the Certificate is sent by certified or
registered mail, the date of certification or registration will be considered
the date of its return to Security First Life.
The returned Contract will be treated as if Security First Life never issued it,
and Security First Life will refund your Purchase Payments or, if required by
state law, the greater of the Purchase Payments or the Participant's Account.
Purchase Payments that you make to the Separate Account will be allocated to the
Money Market Portfolio for the number of days of the Free Look Period required
by the state in which you live. At the end of the Free Look Period, the account
value in the Money Market Portfolio will be reallocated to the Series of the
Separate Account that you selected in your Contract application.
DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS
For qualified 457 deferred compensation Plans, Security First Life may agree to
reduce or waive the administrative fees, transaction charges, and the
distribution expense fee. Also, deductions for sales charges may be reduced or
waived if a surrender is the result of your:
- death,
- disability,
- retirement,
- termination of employment,
- financial hardship, or
- transfer to another investment provider.
DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTRACT
30
<PAGE>
GENERAL
The Contracts (known as Form 230) are group contracts designed to provide
annuity benefits to employees of the following:
- Public School Systems
- Churches
- Certain tax-exempt organizations under Section 403(b) of the Code
- Employees covered under various types of Section 457 deferred
compensation Plans
- Retirement plans held by trusts which qualify under Section 401 of
the Code
These group contracts are also designed for individuals as individual retirement
accounts under Section 408 of the Code (see "Federal Income Tax Status" page
___).
The Contract are designed to fulfill long-term financial needs. They should not
be considered as short-term or temporary investments.
A group Contract is issued to an employer or organization which is the Owner.
This Contract covers all present and future Participants. After completing an
enrollment form and arranging for Purchase Payments to begin, you and all other
Participants will receive a Certificate that gives you a summary of the Contract
provisions. This Certificate also serves as evidence of your participation in
the Plan. Please note that no Certificates are issued to Participants under
deferred compensation or qualified corporate retirement Plans.
The group Contract may be restricted by the Plan as to your exercise of certain
rights provided in the Contract. You should refer to the Plan for information
concerning these restrictions.
ASSIGNMENT
If permitted by the Plan, you may assign your interest in the Contract by
providing Security First Life with written notice. Where a Contract is issued in
connection with a deferred compensation plan, all rights and powers under the
Contract are vested in the Owner, not you.
PURCHASE PAYMENTS
You may make Purchase Payments yearly, semi-yearly, quarterly, monthly, or in
periods agreed to by Security First Life. You may change when you make Purchase
Payments if permitted by the Plan. The minimum Purchase Payment is $20, with a
yearly minimum of $240. Purchase Payments may be allocated to the Separate
Account, the General Account, or between them according to your decision. You
will periodically receive a confirmation of Purchase Payments which have been
received.
31
<PAGE>
TRANSFERS
ACCUMULATION UNITS
You may transfer Accumulation Units among the Funds or to the General Account at
any time. You may not make a transfer from the General Account to Accumulation
Units of more than 20% of your interest in the General Account in any one year.
Amounts transferred from the General Account will be based upon accumulated
payment value and a proportional reduction will be made in the annuity value of
your interest in the General Account.
Your transfer instructions must be in writing or, if permitted by Security First
Life, by telephone. If Security First Life permits Accumulation Units to be
transferred by telephone, you will be required to complete an authorization on
the contract application or on another form that Security First Life will
provide. Security First Life will employ reasonable procedures to confirm that
telephone instructions are genuine. This will include a requirement that you
provide one or more forms of personal identification when requesting a transfer.
Security First Life will not be liable for following instructions it reasonably
believes to be genuine.
Your Accumulation Units will be transferred on the first valuation after receipt
of written or telephone instructions. Accumulation Unit values are determined at
the close of trade on the New York Stock Exchange, which is currently 4:00 p.m.
Eastern time. If your transfer instructions are received up to that time your
transfer will be effected at the value calculated on that date. If your
instructions are received after 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on a valuation day, your
transfer instructions will be carried out at the value next calculated.
ANNUITY UNITS
You may transfer Annuity Units among the Series at any time. You may not
transfer Annuity Units to the General Account. However, any amounts that you
have in the General Account that have not been applied to a fixed annuity income
option may be transferred to Annuity Units in one or more Series for a variable
payout. Transfers of Annuity Units may only be requested in writing and will be
effective on the first valuation following receipt of the instructions.
MINIMUM TRANSFER
A minimum of $500 must be transferred from any Series or from the General
Account, except as permitted under the dollar cost averaging program. The value
of the Accumulation and Annuity Units transferred will be calculated as of the
close of business on the day that the transfer occurs.
32
<PAGE>
DOLLAR COST AVERAGING
Dollar cost averaging (or "automated transfers") allows you to transfer a set
dollar amount to other funding options on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or
annual basis so that more accumulation units are purchased in a funding option
if the cost per unit is low and less accumulation units are purchased if the
cost per unit is high. Therefore, a lower average cost per unit may be achieved
over the long run.
You may participate in this program at no charge if your Participant's Account
is $5,000 or more. Under the program, your Accumulation Units from the Series
invested in the Money Market Portfolio of the Variable Insurance Products Fund
will be periodically transferred to another Series that you select. The program
allows you to invest in non-money market Series over any time period that you
choose instead of investing in these other Series all at once.
You choose whether the transfer will be made monthly, quarterly, semi-annually
or annually. The minimum transfer amount is $100. You may terminate the program
at any time by sending a written notice to Security First Life. (Security First
Life reserves the right to limit the number of Series to which transfers can be
made.)
LOANS (403(b) PLANS ONLY)
If you are in a 403(b) Plan, you may obtain a loan under the Contract from the
part of your Participant's Account allocated to the General Account.
Accumulation Units in the Separate Account are taken into account in determining
the maximum amount of the loan. You would then be permitted to transfer
Accumulation Units from the Separate Account to the General Account before the
loan is made. Your Account serves as the only security for the loan. Security
First Life may terminate a loan at its discretion in the event of a request for
surrender.
The Code imposes limits on the amounts, duration, and repayment schedule for all
403(b) plan loans. If the Plan is subject to the requirements of Title 1 of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, eligibility for, and the terms
and conditions of the loan may be further limited by the terms of the plan and
will be determined by the plan administrator or other designated plan official.
Loan proceeds may cause you to incur tax liability (see "Federal Tax
Considerations" page ___).
Security First Life may modify or terminate the granting of loans at any time,
provided that any modification or termination will not affect outstanding loans.
33
<PAGE>
Fees may be charged for loan set-up and administration. Currently, the loan
set-up fee is $50. This amount is deducted from the proceeds. At this time,
there is no fee for administration.
MODIFICATION OF THE CONTRACT
Security First Life must make Annuity payments involving life contingencies at
no less than the minimum guaranteed Annuity rates incorporated into the
Contract, even if actual mortality experience is different.
Security First Life is legally bound under the Contract to maintain these
Annuity purchase rates. Security First Life must also abide by the Contract's
provisions concerning:
- death benefits
- deductions from Purchase Payments
- deductions from Participant's Accounts for transaction charges
- deductions from the Separate Account for actuarial risk and
administration expense risk fees
- guaranteed rates with respect to fixed benefits
Security First Life may change such provisions without your consent to the
extent permitted by the Contract, but only:
- with respect to any Purchase Payments received as a tax free
transfer under the Code after the effective date of the
change;
- 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; or
- to the extent necessary to conform the Contract to any Federal
or state law, regulation or ruling.
If you have any questions about any of the provisions of your Contract, you may
write or call:

ACCUMULATION PERIOD
CREDITING ACCUMULATION UNITS IN THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
Security First Life will credit Accumulation Units to a Series upon receipt of
your Purchase Payment or transfer. Security First Life determines the number of
Accumulation Units to be credited to a Series by dividing the net amount
allocated to a Series out of your Purchase Payment by the value of an
Accumulation Unit in the Series next computed following receipt of the Purchase
Payment or transfer.
SEPARATE ACCOUNT ACCUMULATION UNIT CURRENT VALUES
The current value of Accumulation Units of a particular Series depends upon the
investment experience of the Fund in which the Series invests its assets. The
value of Accumulation Units is determined each business day at the close of
trading on the New York Stock Exchange (currently 4:00 p.m. Eastern time ). The
value is calculated by multiplying the value of an Accumulation Unit in the
Series on the immediately preceding valuation date by the net investment factor
for the period since that day. You bear the risk that the aggregate current
value invested in the Series may at any time be less than, equal to or more than
the amount that you originally allocated to the Series.
[Side Bar: The NET INVESTMENT FACTOR is an index of the percentage change
(adjusted for distributions by the Fund and the deduction of the
administration fee, mortality and expense risk fee) in the net asset
value of the Fund in which a Series is invested, since the preceding
Valuation Date. The net investment factor may be greater or less than
1 depending upon the Fund's investment performance.
SURRENDER FROM THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
To the extent permitted by the Plan and applicable provisions of the Code, you
may surrender all or a portion of your Certificate at any time prior to the
Annuity Date. A surrender may result in adverse federal income tax consequences
to you including current taxation on the distribution and a penalty tax on the
early withdrawal. These consequences are discussed in more detail under "Federal
Tax Considerations" on page ___. You should consult your tax adviser before
making a withdrawal.
The cash value of your interest in the Separate Account prior to the Annuity
Date is determined by multiplying the number of Accumulation Units for each
Series credited to the Contract by the current value of an Accumulation Unit in
the Series and subtracting any applicable surrender charges. Security First Life
will determine the value of the number of Accumulation Units withdrawn at the
next computed Accumulation Unit value.
35
<PAGE>
If you request a partial surrender from more than one Series you must specify
the allocation of the partial surrender among the Series. You may not make a
partial surrender if a withdrawal would cause your interest in any Series or the
General Account to have an after surrender value of less than $200.
However, if you are withdrawing the entire amount allocated to a Series these
restrictions do not apply.
PAYMENT OF SURRENDER AMOUNT
Payment of any amount surrendered from a Series will be made to you within seven
days of the date that Security First Life receives your written request.
Security First Life may suspend surrenders when:
- The SEC restricts trading on the New York Stock Exchange or
the Exchange is closed for other than weekends or holidays.
- The SEC permits the suspension of withdrawals.
- The SEC determines that an emergency exists that makes
disposal of portfolio securities or valuation of assets of the
Funds not reasonably practicable.
ACCOUNT STATEMENTS
You will receive a written account statement each calendar quarter in which a
transaction occurs before the Annuity Date. Even if you do not engage in any
transactions you will receive at least one written account statement per year.
The statement shows:
- all transactions for the period being reported;
- the number of Accumulation Units that are credited to your
Participant's Account in each Series;
- the current Accumulation Unit value for each Series; and
- your Participant's Account as of the end of the reporting
period.
36
<PAGE>
Security First Life is careful to ensure the accuracy of calculations and
transfers to and within the Separate Account. However, errors may still occur.
You should review your statements and confirmations of transactions carefully
and promptly advise Security First Life of any discrepancy. Allocations and
transfers reflected in a statement will be considered final at the end of 60
days from the date of the statement.
ANNUITY BENEFITS
VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS
Your interest in the Series is applied to provide you with a Variable Annuity.
The dollar amount of the Variable Annuity payments that you receive will reflect
the investment experience of the Series but will not be affected by adverse
mortality experience which may exceed the mortality risk charge established
under the Contract.
ASSUMED INVESTMENT RETURN
Unless you elect otherwise, the Assumed Investment Return is 4.25% per year. If
the laws and regulations of your State allow, you may elect an Assumed
Investment Return of 3.50%, 5% or 6%. The Assumed Investment Return does not
bear any relationship to the actual net investment experience of the Series.
Your choice of Assumed Investment Return affects the pattern of your Annuity
payments. Your Annuity payments will vary from the Assumed Investment Return
depending on whether the investment experience of the Series in which you have
an interest is better or worse than the Assumed Investment Return. The higher
your Assumed Investment Return, the higher your first Annuity payment will be.
Your next payments will only increase in proportion to the amount the investment
experience of your chosen Series exceeds the Assumed Investment Return and
Separate Account charges. Likewise, your payments will decrease if the
investment experience of your chosen Series is less than the Assumed Investment
Return and Separate Account charges. A lower Assumed Investment Return will
result in a lower initial Annuity payment, but subsequent Annuity payments will
increase more rapidly or decline more slowly as changes occur in the investment
experience of the Series. Conversely, a higher Assumed Investment Return would
result in a higher initial payment than a lower Assumed Investment Return, but
later payments will rise more slowly or fall more rapidly.
ELECTION OF ANNUITY DATE AND FORM OF ANNUITY
You choose the Annuity Date and the form of Annuity payment.
37
<PAGE>
ELECTION OF ANNUITY DATE
If you do not choose an Annuity Date at least thirty-one days before
Annuitization, your Normal Annuity Date automatically will be the later of:
- the month in which you attain age 75, or
- the date you are required to take a distribution under the
terms of the Plan to which the Contract is issued.
You may select an optional Annuity Date that is earlier than the Normal Annuity
Date described above. This Annuity Date may be the first day of any month before
the Normal Annuity Date.
Please note that the Qualified Contract may require a different Normal Annuity
Date and may prohibit the selection of certain optional Annuity Dates.
FORM OF ANNUITY
[SIDE BAR: There are two people who are involved in payments under your
Annuity:
- you and
- your Beneficiary
Currently, Security First Life provides you with five forms of Annuity payments.
Each Annuity payment option, except Option 5, is available on both a Fixed and
Variable Annuity basis. Option 5 is available on a Fixed basis only.
OPTION 1 - LIFE ANNUITY
You receive Annuity payments monthly during your lifetime. These payments stop
with the last payment due before your death. Because Security First Life does
not guarantee a minimum number of payments under this arrangement, this option
offers the maximum level of monthly payments, involving a life contingency.
38
<PAGE>
OPTION 2 - LIFE ANNUITY WITH 120, 180, OR 240 MONTHLY PAYMENTS CERTAIN
You receive a guaranteed minimum number of monthly Annuity payments during your
lifetime. In addition, Security First Life guarantees that your Beneficiary will
receive monthly payments for the remainder of the period certain, if the
Annuitant dies during that period.
OPTION 3 - INSTALLMENT REFUND LIFE ANNUITY
An Annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of an individual. You receive a
guaranteed minimum number of monthly payments which are equal to the amount of
your Participant's Account allocated to this option divided by the first monthly
payment. If you die before receiving the minimum number of payments, the
remaining payments will be made to your Beneficiary.
OPTION 4 - JOINT AND LAST SURVIVOR LIFE ANNUITY
Annuity payments are made monthly during your lifetime and the lifetime of
another payee (the joint payee) and during the lifetime of the survivor of the
two of you. Security First Life stops making payments with the last payment
before the death of the last surviving payee. Security First Life does not
guarantee a minimum number of payments under this arrangement. For example, you
or the other payee might receive only one Annuity payment if both of you die
before the second Annuity payment. The election of this option is ineffective if
either of you dies before Annuitization. In that case, the survivor becomes the
sole payee, and Security First Life does not pay death proceeds because of the
death of the other payee.
OPTION 5 - PAYMENTS FOR A DESIGNATED PERIOD (FIXED ANNUITY ONLY)
Security First Life makes Annuity payments monthly to you or to the Beneficiary
at your death, for a selected number of years ranging from five to thirty. The
amount of each payment will be based on an interest rate determined by Security
First Life that will not be less than 3.50% per year. You may not commute Fixed
Annuity payments to a lump sum under this option.
If you do not choose a form of Annuity payment, Option 2, a life annuity with a
guaranteed minimum of 120 monthly payments, will automatically be applied. You
may make changes in the optional form of Annuity payment at any time until 31
days before the Annuity date.
39
<PAGE>
The first year's Annuity payment described in Options 1 - 4 are calculated on
the basis of:
- the mortality table specified in the Contract
- the age and where permitted the sex of the Annuitant
- the type of Annuity payment option selected, and
- the assumed investment return selected.
The fixed Annuity payments described in Option 5 are calculated on the basis of:
- the number of years in the payment period, and
- the interest rate guaranteed with respect to the option.
Fixed Annuities are funded through the General Account of Security First Life.
FREQUENCY OF PAYMENT
Your payments under all options will be made on a monthly basis unless you and
Security First Life have agreed to a different arrangement.
Payments from each Series must be at least $50 each. If a payment from a Series
will be less than $50, Security First Life has the right to decrease the
frequency of payments so that each payment from a Series will be at least $50.
LEVEL PAYMENTS VARYING ANNUALLY
Your variable Annuity payments are determined yearly rather than monthly. As a
result, you will receive a uniform monthly Annuity payment for each Annuity
year. The level of payments for each year is based on the investment performance
of the Series up to the Valuation Date as of which the payments are determined
for the year. As a result, the amounts of the Annuity payments will vary with
the investment performance of the Series from year to year rather than from
month to month. Your monthly variable Annuity payments for the first year will
be calculated on the last Valuation Date of the second calendar week before the
Annuity date. The amount of your monthly variable Annuity payments will be
calculated using a formula described in the Contract. On each anniversary of the
Annuity date, Security First Life will determine the total monthly payments for
the year then beginning. These payments will be determined by multiplying the
number of Annuity units in each Series from which payments are to be made by the
annuity unit value of that Series for the valuation period in which the first
payment for that period is due.
40
<PAGE>
After calculating the amount due to you, Security First Life transfers the
amount of the year's Variable Annuity payments to a General Account at the
beginning of the year. Although the amount in the Separate Account is credited
to you and transferred to the General Account, you do not have any property
rights in this amount. You do have a contractual right to receive your Annuity
payments.
The monthly Annuity payments for the year are made from the General Account with
interest using the standard assumed investment return of 4.25% or the Assumed
Investment Return that you selected. As a result, Security First Life will
experience profits or losses on the amounts placed in the General Account in
providing level monthly payments to you during the year that meet the Assumed
Investment Return that you selected. For example, if the net investment income
and gains in the General Account are lower than the Assumed Investment Return
selected, Security First Life will experience a loss.
You will not benefit from any increases or be disadvantaged from any decreases
in any Annuity Unit Values during the year because the Annuity payments for that
year are set at the beginning of the year. These increases and decreases will be
reflected in the calculation of Annuity payments for the following year.
ANNUITY UNIT VALUES
This is how Security First Life calculates the Annuity Unit Value for each
Series:
- First, Security First Life determines the change in investment
experience (including any investment-related charge) for the
underlying Fund from the previous trading day to the current
trading day.
- Next, it subtracts the daily equivalent of your
insurance-related charge (general administrative expense and
mortality and expense risk charges) for each day since the
last day the Annuity Unit Value was calculated.
- Then, it divides the result by the quantity of one plus the
weekly equivalent of your Assumed Investment Return.
- Finally, the previous Annuity Unit Value is multiplied by this
result.
41
<PAGE>
DEATH BENEFITS
DEATH BEFORE THE ANNUITY DATE
If you die before the Annuity Date, your Beneficiary(ies) will receive a death
benefit that is equal to the Participant's Account.
If you are younger than age 65 at the time of your death, your Beneficiary(ies)
will be entitled to receive a lump sum settlement equal to the greater of:
- your Purchase Payments less partial withdrawals or amounts already
applied to Annuity payments; or
- your Participant's Account.
Your Beneficiary(ies) receive the death benefit as either:
1) A lump sum that must be made within five (5) years of your
death.
Or
2) Annuity income under Annuity Income Options One, Two or Five
described in Article 7 of the Contract.
If your Beneficiary(ies) chooses one of the Annuity income options:
- Payments must begin within one year of your death
(However, your spouse may delay commencement of
payments to the date that you would have reached
70 1/2.)
- The guaranteed period under Option Two or the
designated period under Option Five may not be
longer than the Beneficiary's life expectancy
under applicable tables specified by the Internal
Revenue Service.
- The Participant's Account on the date of the first
Annuity payment will be used to determine the
amount of the death benefit.
If your spouse is your sole Beneficiary, he or she may choose to succeed to your
rights as Owner rather than to take the death benefit. If you have more than one
42
<PAGE>
Beneficiary living at the time of your death, each will share the proceeds of
the death benefit equally unless you elect otherwise.
If you outlive all of your Beneficiaries, the death benefit will be paid to your
estate in a lump sum. No Beneficiary shall have the right to assign or transfer
any future payments under the Options, except as provided in the election or by
law.
You will also be considered to have outlived your Beneficiary(ies) in the
following situations:
- Your Beneficiary(ies) and you die at the same time.
- Your Beneficiary(ies) dies within 15 days of your death
and proof of your death is received by Security First
Life before the date due.
Proof of death includes a certified death certificate, or attending physician's
statement, a decree of a court of competent jurisdiction as to the finding of
death, or other documents that Security First Life agrees to accept as proof of
death.
DEATH AFTER THE ANNUITY DATE
If you die on or after the Annuity Date, the amounts payable to the
Beneficiary(ies) or other properly designated payees will consist of any
continuing payments under the Annuity Payment option in effect. In this case,
the Beneficiary will:
- have all the remaining rights and powers under a
Certificate, and
- be subject to all the terms and conditions of the
Certificate.
If none of your Beneficiaries survive your death, the value of any remaining
payments certain on the death of Annuitant, calculated on the basis of the
assumed investment return that you previously chose, will be paid in a lump sum
to your estate unless other provisions have been made and approved by Security
First Life. This value is calculated on the next day of payment following
receipt of due proof of death.
Unless otherwise restricted, a Beneficiary receiving variable payments under
Option Two or Three may elect at any time to receive the present value of the
remaining number of Annuity payments certain in a lump sum payment after the
death of an Annuitant. The present value of the remaining Annuity payments will
be calculated on the basis of the assumed investment return previously selected.
This lump sum payment election is not available to a Beneficiary receiving Fixed
Annuity payments.

FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
The following general discussion of the federal income tax consequences under
this Contract is not intended to cover all situations, and is not meant to
provide tax advice. Because of the complexity of the law and the fact that the
tax results will vary depending on many factors, you should consult your tax
adviser regarding your personal situation. Additional tax information is
included in the SAI. (Neither this Prospectus nor the SAI addresses state, local
or foreign tax matters.)
GENERAL TAXATION OF ANNUITIES
Congress has recognized the value of saving for retirement by providing certain
tax benefits, in the form of tax deferral, for money put into an annuity. The
Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") governs how this money is ultimately taxed.
There are different rules for Qualified and Non-qualified Contracts and
depending on how the money is distributed, as briefly described below.
You generally will not be taxed on increases in the value of your Contract until
a distribution occurs - either as a withdrawal or as an Annuity payment. This
concept is known as tax deferral. In addition, Security First Life will not be
taxed on the investment income and capital gains of the Separate Account.
[SIDE BAR: A QUALIFIED CONTRACT is a Contract that is purchased for certain
types of tax-advantaged retirement plans (previously defined as
"qualified plans").
For purposes of this Prospectus, qualified plans include:
- SECTION 401 PLANS (pension and profit-sharing plans, including plans for
the self-employed);
- SECTION 403(b) PLANS (tax-deferred annuities);
- SECTION 457 PLANS (deferred compensation plans);
- TRADITIONAL INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS AND ANNUITIES ("IRAs"); and
- ROTH IRAs.
A NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACT is a Contract that is purchased on an individual basis
with after-tax dollars and not under one of the programs listed above in the
description of a Qualified Contract.]
[SIDE BAR: Please note that the terms of your particular plan, IRA or Roth
IRA may limit your rights otherwise available under the Contract.]
44
<PAGE>
NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACTS
If you are the owner of a Non-qualified Contract, you do not receive any tax
benefit (deduction or deferral of income) on Purchase Payments (for example,
there is no deduction available for Purchase Payments), but you will not be
taxed on increases in the value of your Contract until a distribution occurs --
either as a withdrawal (that is, a distribution made prior to Annuitization) or
as Annuity payments.
Any direct or indirect borrowing against the value of the Contract or pledging
of the Contract as security for a loan will be treated as a cash distribution
under the tax law. A lump sum taken in lieu of remaining Annuity payments will
be treated as a withdrawal for tax purposes.
If a Non-qualified Contract is owned by someone other than an individual (for
example, by a corporation), the Contract will generally not be treated as an
annuity for tax purposes. For these entities, any increases in the value of the
Contract attributable to Purchase Payments made after February 28, 1986 are
includible in the Owner's annual income.
WITHDRAWALS
If you make a partial withdrawal, for tax purposes, the amount withdrawn will
generally be treated as first coming from earnings and then from your Purchase
Payments. These withdrawn earnings are includible in your gross income and are
taxed at ordinary income rates.
[SIDE BAR: Earnings are the income that your Contract generates.
There is income in the Contract to the extent the Contract Value exceeds your
investment in the Contract. The investment in the Contract equals the total
Purchase Payments you paid less any amount received previously which was
excludible from gross income.]
ANNUITY DISTRIBUTIONS
When you receive an Annuity payment, part of each payment is considered a return
of your Purchase Payments and will not be taxed. The remaining portion of the
Annuity payment (that is, any earnings) is included in your gross income and
will be considered ordinary income for tax purposes.
How the Annuity payment is divided between taxable and non-taxable portions
depends upon the period over which the Annuity payments are expected to be made.
Annuity payments received after you have received all of your premium payments
are fully includible in income.
45
<PAGE>
EARLY SURRENDER PENALTY
The Code also provides that income distributed as an Annuity or lump sum
withdrawal from a Non-qualified Contract may be subject to a penalty. The amount
of the penalty is equal to 10% of the amount that is includible in income. Some
withdrawals will be exempt from the penalty. They include any amounts:
- paid on or after the date you reach age 59-1/2;
- paid to your Beneficiary(ies) after you die;
- paid if you become totally disabled (as that term is defined in
the Code);
- paid in a series of substantially equal payments made annually (or
more frequently) under a life or joint life expectancy Annuity;
- paid under an immediate Annuity; and
- which come from Purchase Payments made prior to August 14, 1982.
(Other exceptions to the penalty may be available, and if you are not yet age
59-1/2, you should consult your tax advisor to determine whether you have met
all of the requirements for any particular exception.)
The penalty also will be imposed if you elect to receive payments in
substantially equal installments as a life or life expectancy Annuity prior to
age 59-1/2 and then change the method of distribution before you reach the age
of 59-1/2. You will be assessed the penalty even after age 59-1/2 if payments
have not continued for five years.
If you are issued multiple annuity contracts within a calendar year by one
company or its affiliates, the tax law may treat these contracts as one annuity
contract for purposes of determining your tax on any distribution. This
treatment may result in adverse tax consequences for you.
[Side Bar: The dollars in a qualified plan are tax deferred. Annuities purchased
for use with a qualified plan provide no additional tax deferral.]
46
<PAGE>
QUALIFIED CONTRACTS
The full amount of all distributions received from a Section 401, 403(b), 457
plan or IRA (except for a return of non-deductible employee or IRA
contributions) are generally included in your gross income and are taxed at
ordinary income rates unless the distribution is transferred in an eligible
rollover to the Contract. In certain cases, distributions received from a Roth
IRA are also included in gross income.
Generally, distributions are included in your income in the year in which they
are paid. However, in the case of a Section 457 plan, a distribution is
includible in the year it is paid or when it is made available, depending upon
whether certain Code requirements are met. In very limited situations, a lump
sum distribution from a Section 401 plan may qualify for special tax treatment,
including special forward income averaging, special long term capital gain
treatment or deferral with respect to net unrealized appreciation.
MANDATORY MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS
If you are a participant in a Section 401, 403(b) or 457 plan or an IRA, you
generally must begin receiving withdrawals from your Contract Value or Annuity
payments for life or a period not exceeding the life expectancy of you or you
and a beneficiary by April 1 of the calendar year following the year you turn
70-1/2 (or, in some cases, the year you retire, if later).
In addition, distributions under Section 401, 403(b) and 457 plans and IRAs must
satisfy the minimum distribution incidental benefit requirements of the Code,
which impose additional minimum distribution requirements during life. However,
if the distributions described in the preceding paragraph are made to you over
your life expectancy or the joint life expectancy of you and your spouse, the
minimum incidental death benefit requirements are treated as satisfied.
If you are the owner of a Roth IRA, distributions are not required during your
lifetime.
EARLY SURRENDER PENALTY
If you receive a taxable distribution from a Section 401 plan, Section 403(b)
plan or IRA under your Contract before you reach age 59-1/2, this amount may be
subject to a 10% penalty tax in addition to ordinary income tax.
47

[As indicated in the chart below, some distributions prior to age 59 1/2 are
exempt from the penalty. Some of these exceptions include any amounts received.

ROLLOVERS OF PLAN CONVERSIONS
You may roll over distributions (other than certain distributions, such as
required distributions) from one plan or arrangement to another plan or
arrangement without incurring any Federal income tax under some circumstances.
These circumstances are as follows:

- -----------------------------------------------------------------
DEDUCTIONS FOR PLAN CONTRIBUTIONS
You may deduct your contributions to Section 401 plans and Section 403(b) plans
in the year when made up to the limits specified in the Code. These plans may
also permit non-deductible employee contributions. Any non-deductible employee
contribution that you make will be received tax free as a portion of each
Annuity payment.
WITHHOLDING
MANDATORY 20% WITHHOLDING FOR "ELIGIBLE ROLLOVER DISTRIBUTIONS"
If you are participating in a Section 401 plan or a Section 403(b) plan,
Security First Life is required to withhold 20% of the taxable portion of your
withdrawal that constitutes an "eligible rollover distribution" for Federal
income tax purposes.
Generally, an "eligible rollover distribution" is any taxable amount that you
receive from a Qualified Contract, except for distributions that are:
o paid over your life or the joint life expectancy of you and
your Beneficiary(ies);
o paid over a period of 10 years or more;
o necessary to satisfy the minimum distribution requirements; or
o certain Hardship Distributions from Section 401 and Section 403(b)
plans.
The requirements discussed below under "Other tax withholding" will apply to any
distribution that is not an eligible rollover distribution.
You may not elect out of the 20% withholding requirement. However, Security
First Life is not required to withhold the money if an eligible rollover
distribution is rolled over into
49
<PAGE>
an IRA or other eligible retirement plan, or is directly transferred in a
trustee-to-trustee transfer to either arrangement.
OTHER TAX WITHHOLDING
Different withholding rules apply to taxable withdrawals such as Annuity
payments and partial withdrawals that are not eligible rollover distributions.
The withholding rules are determined at the time of payment. You may elect out
of these withholding requirements at any time. You may also revoke a
non-withholding election made with respect to Annuity payments at any time and
tax withholding will begin again at that time. Security First Life will notify
you at least annually of your right to revoke or reinstate tax withholding.
TAXPAYER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER ("TIN")
You are required by law to provide Security First Life (as payor) with your
correct TIN. If you are an individual, the TIN is your social security number.
50
<PAGE>
VOTING RIGHTS
As the owner of the Separate Account, Security First Life is the legal owner of
the shares of the funding options. Based upon Security First Life's current view
of applicable law, you have voting interests under the Contract concerning Fund
shares and are entitled to vote on Fund proposals at all regular and special
shareholders meetings. Therefore, you are entitled to give us instructions for
the number of shares which are deemed attributable to your Participant's Account
or the Contract.
Security First Life will vote all shares of the underlying Funds as directed by
you and others who have voting interests in the Funds. Security First Life will
send you, at a last known address, all periodic reports, proxy materials and
written requests for instructions on how to vote those shares. When Security
First Life receives these instructions, it will vote all of the shares in
proportion to the instructions. If Security First Life does not receive your
voting instructions, it will vote your interest in the same proportion as
represented by the votes it receives from the other Owners and Participants. If
Security First Life determines that it is permitted to vote the shares in its
own right due to changes in the law or in the interpretation of the law it may
do so.
Security First Life is under no duty to inquire into voting instructions or into
the authority of the person issuing such instructions. All instructions will be
valid unless Security First Life has actual knowledge that they are not.
When Annuity payments begin, the Annuitant will have all voting rights in regard
to Fund shares.
There are certain circumstances under which Security First Life may disregard
voting instructions. However, in this event, a summary of our action and the
reasons for such action will appear in the next semiannual report.
The number of votes that each person having the right to vote receives is
determined on a record date that is set no more than 90 days before the meeting.
Voting instructions will be requested at least 10 days before the meeting. Only
Owners or Annuitants on the record date may vote.
The number of shares to which you are entitled to vote is calculated by dividing
the portion of your Participant's Account allocated to that Fund on the record
date by the net asset value of a Fund share on the same date.

THE INSURANCE COMPANY
Security First Life Insurance Company ("Security First Life") is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Security First Group, Inc. ("SFG"). SFG, the parent of Security
First Life, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company
("MetLife"), a New York life insurance company. MetLife is a wholly owned
subsidiary of MetLife, Inc., a publicly traded company, with assets under
management of $420 billion at December 31, 1999.
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
The Security First Life Separate Account A ("Separate Account") presently funds
the group variable annuity contracts issued by Security First Life on Forms SF
224FL, SF 226R1, SF 1700, SF 230, SF 234, SF 236FL and individual annuity
contracts on Form SF 137, Form SF 135R2C and Form 135PB2. These individual and
group variable annuity contracts are described in other prospectuses. The
combination fixed and variable contracts ("Contracts") described in this
Statement of Additional Information and related prospectus are distinct
contracts from the above described individual and group variable annuity
contacts.
Amounts transferred to the Separate Account under the Contracts will be invested
in the securities of ten Funds: (i) the Money Market Portfolio and Growth
Portfolio of the Fidelity Investments Variable Insurance Products Fund; (ii) the
Asset Manager Portfolio, Contrafund Portfolio and Index 500 Portfolio of the
Fidelity Investments Variable Insurance Products Fund II; (iii) the Neuberger
Berman Bond Series, T. Rowe Price Growth and Income Series and BlackRock U.S.
Government Income Series of the Security First Trust; (iv) the International
Portfolio of the Scudder Variable Life Investment Fund; and (v) the Small
Capitalization Portfolio of The Alger American Fund. The Separate Account is
divided into a number of Series of Accumulation and Annuity Units, which
correspond respectively to these ten funds.
NET INVESTMENT FACTOR
The Separate Account net investment factor is an index of the percentage change
(adjusted for distributions by the Funds and the deduction of the mortality and
expense risk fees and the administration fees) in the net asset value of the
Fund in which a particular 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 Fund at the close of the 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 fund share determined as of the close of
business on the preceding Business Day and then subtracting from this result the
mortality and expense risk fees and the administration fees factor of .003699%
for each calendar day between the preceding Business Day and the end of the
current Business Day.

ANNUITY PAYMENTS
The primary theory of a variable annuity having underlying 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 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
the 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 theory of a variable annuity having underlying assets chiefly
invested in fixed-income securities (such as the Neuberger Berman Bond Series)
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 non-convertible 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 that differ from those found in
a variable annuity invested primarily in common and preferred stocks. Certain
securities (high yield bonds) in the portfolio will be very sensitive to adverse
economic changes and corporate developments. Adverse publicity and investor
perceptions, whether or not based on fundamental analysis, may decrease the
values and liquidity of high yield bonds, especially in a thin market. In
addition, periods of economic uncertainty and change may result in increased
volatility of both the market prices of high yield bonds and the fund's net
asset value.
The market value of non-convertible 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 Asset Manager
Portfolio, Neuberger Berman Bond Series and T. Rowe Price Growth and Income
Series may, pursuant to the investment policies, invest a significant portion of
their assets in long-term fixed-income securities. Because of this, Participants
who select one of these series 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 underlying series is best
suited to their long-term needs.
Basis of Variable Annuity Benefits
The Variable Annuity benefits 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 and adjusted age and the form of Annuity
selected. The mortality basis for these tables is Annuity 2000 Mortality Table,
projected to the year 2020 on Projection Scale G, 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:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
YEAR OF BIRTH AGE ADJUSTMENT
BEFORE 1945 ACTUAL AGE
1946- 1965 AGE MINUS 1 YEAR
1966 - 1985 AGE MINUS 2 YEARS
1986 - 2005 AGE MINUS 3 YEARS
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Determination of Amount of Monthly Variable Annuity Payments for First Year
The Separate Account value used to establish the monthly Variable Annuity
Payment for the first year consists of the value of Accumulation Units of each
Series of the Separate Account credited to a Participant on the last day of the
second calendar week before the Annuity Date. The Contract contains 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 Security First Life's General Account and level monthly
Annuity payments for the year are made out of the General Account. The amount to
be transferred is determined by multiplying the Annuity premium rate per $1,000
set forth in the Contract tables by the number of thousands of dollars of
Separate Account Value credited to a Participant. 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 Contract involved has Separate Account Accumulation Units in more than
one Series, 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
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
5
<PAGE>
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 and the monthly anniversary thereof.
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 return of the
Separate Account equals the Assumed Investment Return 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
return for the Separate Account is smaller than, equal to or greater than the
Assumed Investment Return.
Annuity Unit Values
The Separate Account annuity unit values for each Series was originally
established at $5 per unit. The value of an annuity unit for each Series for any
subsequent valuation period 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 current valuation period. The Annuity Change Factor is an adjusted
measurement of the investment performance of the Series since the end of the
preceding valuation period. The Annuity Change Factor for any valuation period
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
immediately 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 return. This assumed investment rate is included for purposes of
actuarial computations and does not relate to the actual investment performance
of the underlying Series. Therefore, the Assumed Investment Return must be
"neutralized" in computing the Annuity Change Factor. The Interest
Neutralization Factor is determined by dividing 1 by the effective weekly
equivalent of the assumed investment return previously selected by the
annuitant. For example, the Interest Neutralization Factor for an assumed
investment return of 4.25% is calculated as follows:
(1/52)
Interest Neutralization Factor: 1/[(1 + 0.0425) ] = 0.9991999
ADDITIONAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION
Security First Life is required to withhold federal income tax on any Contract
distributions to Participants (such as Annuity payments, lump sum distributions
or partial surrenders). However, except as noted below, Participants are allowed
in some cases 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.
6
<PAGE>
The withholding rate followed by Security First Life will be applied only
against the taxable portion of the 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 rate 10% rate. In the case of a plan qualified under
Sections 401(a) or 403(b) 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-sheltered annuity 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 will be 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 new 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 distributions 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 new 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 the same as 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 the
prospectus and this Statement of Additional Information is not exhaustive and is
for information purposes only. The discussions do 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.
7
<PAGE>
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 7.5%. 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. No direct underwriting commissions are paid to
Security First Financial, Inc.
CALCULATION OF PERFORMANCE DATA
a. Money Market Portfolio. The yield of the Money Market Portfolio of the
Separate Account for the seven day period ended December 31, 1999, was 2.48%.
This yield was computed by determining the net change, exclusive of capital
changes, in the value of a hypothetical pre-existing account having a balance of
one accumulation unit of the Series at the beginning of a seven-day base period,
subtracting a hypothetical charge reflecting deductions from account values, and
dividing the difference by the value of the account at the beginning of the base
period to obtain the base period return, and multiplying the base period return
by (365/7) with the resulting yield figure carried to a least the nearest
hundredth of one percent.
The effective yield of the Money Market Portfolio over the same period was
2.51%. This was computed by determining the net change, exclusive of capital
changes, in the value of a hypothetical pre-existing account having a balance of
one accumulation unit of the Series at the beginning of the period, subtracting
a hypothetical charge reflecting deductions from account values, and dividing
the difference by the value of the account at the beginning of the base period
to obtain the base period return, and then compounding the base period return by
adding 1, raising the sum to a power equal to 365 divided by 7, and subtracting
1 from the result, according to the following formula:
(365/7)
EFFECTIVE YIELD = (BASE PERIOD RETURN + 1) - 1.
b. Other Series. The average annual returns of the other Series of the Separate
Account are computed by finding the average annual compounded rates of return
over the specified periods that would equate the initial amount invested to the
ending redeemable value, according to the following formula:
P(1+T)n = ERV
Where:
P = a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000
T = average annual total return
n = number of years in the period
ERV = ending redeemable value of a hypothetical $1,000 payment made at
the beginning of the period (or fractional portion thereof)
The computation of average annual total returns does take into consideration
recurring charges and any non-recurring charges applicable to a Contract which
is surrendered in full at the end of the stated holding period.
For periods occurring prior to commencement of operations of a Series of the
8
<PAGE>
Separate Account, the performance computed will be derived from that of the
corresponding underlying Fund, adjusted for all Contract charges applicable to
the Separate Account. The inception date, if applicable, will be that of the
underlying Fund in such cases. Advertisements will always include total return
data for one, five and ten year periods (or since inception) but may include
other periods as well.
On the foregoing basis, the derived total return data for the Series other than
the Money Market Portfolio for periods ending December 31, 1999, are as follows:

Certain expenses of the Index 500 Portfolio have been reimbursed by the
portfolio's investment adviser. Reimbursement of expenses to a series increases
average annual total returns, and repayment of such reimbursements reduces these
returns.
VOTING RIGHTS
Unless otherwise restricted by the Plan under which a Contract is issued, each
Participant will have the right to instruct Security First Life with respect to
voting the Fund shares which are the assets underlying the Participant's
interest in the Separate Account, at all regular and special shareholder
meetings. An Annuitant's voting power with respect to Fund shares held by the
Separate Account declines during the time the Annuitant is receiving a Variable
Annuity based on the investment performance of the Separate Account, because
amounts attributable to the Annuitant's 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 the custody of Security First
Life. Security First Life's principal offices are located at 11365 West Olympic
Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90064. 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
10
<PAGE>
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 record keeping and administrative services
for the Separate Account.
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The financial statements and the related financial statement schedules of
Security First Life Insurance Company at December 31, 1998 and 1999 and the
financial statements and the related financial statement schedules of Security
First Life Separate Account A at December 31, 1998 and 1999 included elsewhere
in the registration statement have been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP,
independent auditors, as stated in their reports appearing elsewhere in the
registration statement, and are included in reliance upon the reports of such
firm given upon their authority as experts in accounting and auditing.
LEGAL MATTERS
Legal matters concerning federal securities laws applicable to the issue and
sale of the Contracts have been passed upon by Sullivan & Worcester LLP, 1025
Connecticut Avenue, N.W., Washington D.C. 20036. Prior to January 31, 1998, such
legal matters were passed upon by Routier and Johnson, P.C., 1700 K Street,
N.W., Suite 1003, Washington, D.C. 20006.
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, 1997. 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.
11
<PAGE>
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.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements of Security First Life contained herein should be
considered only for the purposes of informing investors as to its ability to

SECURITY FIRST LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND 1998
NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION -- Security First Life Insurance Company (the Company) is
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Security First Group, Inc. (SFG). Effective October
31, 1997, SFG became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Metropolitan Life Insurance
Company (MetLife). Prior to that date, SFG was a wholly-owned subsidiary of
London Insurance Group, Inc. The Company sells a broad range of fixed and
variable annuity contracts.
The Company's financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP) which differ in some respects from
statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by regulatory authorities
(statutory basis).
INVESTMENTS -- Investments are reported on the following bases:
Fixed Maturities -- 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.
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 classifies its fixed maturities as available-for-sale. The
Company does not maintain a trading portfolio.
Mortgage loans -- at amortized cost, net of valuation allowances, if any,
which approximates fair value.
Policy loans -- at unpaid balances, which approximate fair value.
Short-term investments -- at cost, which approximates fair value.
Other investments -- at fair value.
Realized gains and losses on disposal of investments are determined on a
specific identification basis.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS -- Cash equivalents consist of investments in money
market funds. The carrying amount of cash equivalents approximates fair value.
DEFERRED POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS -- Deferred policy acquisition costs consist
of commissions and other costs of acquiring annuities that vary with and are
primarily related to the acquisition of such business. 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.
POLICYHOLDER LIABILITIES -- Policyholder liabilities for two-tier annuities are
the lower tier account values. 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):
Carrying Amount Estimated Fair Value
--------------- --------------------
December 31, 1999 $ 2,247,045 $ 2,188,033
December 31, 1998 2,202,198 2,141,415
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 -- 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.
SEPARATE ACCOUNTS -- The assets held in separate accounts represent funds that
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.
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 annuitized during the period and the related policyholder
liability balances.

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
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 STANDARDS -- In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137,
ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES - DEFERRAL OF THE
EFFECTIVE DATE OF FASB STATEMENT NO. 133 (SFAS 137). SFAS 137 defers the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, ACCOUNTING
FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES (SFAS 133) until January 1,
2001. SFAS 133 requires, among other things, that all derivatives be recognized
in the balance sheets as either assets or liabilities and measured at fair
value. The corresponding derivative gains and losses should be reported based
upon the hedge relationship, if such a relationship exists. Changes in the fair
value of derivatives that are not designated as hedges or that do not meet the
hedge accounting criteria in SFAS 133 are required to be reported in operations.
The Company is in the process of quantifying the impact of SFAS 133 on its
financial statements.
In December 1997, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
Statement of Position 97-3, ACCOUNTING FOR INSURANCE AND OTHER ENTERPRISES FOR
INSURANCE RELATED ASSESSMENTS (SOP 97-3). SOP 97-3 provides guidance on
accounting by insurance and other enterprises for assessments related to
insurance activities including recognition, measurement and disclosure of
guaranty fund and other insurance related assessments. The Company adopted SOP
97-3 effective January 1, 1999. Adoption of SOP 97-3 did not have a material
effect on the Company's financial statements.
NOTE 2 -- STATUTORY CAPITAL AND RESTRICTIONS
The Company is required to file annual statements with various state insurance
regulatory authorities on a statutory basis. The statutory-basis capital and
surplus at December 31, 1999 and 1998 and statutory-basis net income for those
years are as follows (in thousands):
Capital Net

-----------------
Security First Life Insurance Company $ 128,520 $ 7,674
The Company is incorporated and domiciled in Delaware. The payment of dividends
is subject to statutory limitations which are based on statutory-basis net
income and surplus levels. At December 31, 1999, the maximum amount of dividends
the Company could pay SFG without prior approval from state insurance regulatory
authorities is $16,682,000.

NOTE 2 -- STATUTORY CAPITAL AND RESTRICTIONS (CONTINUED)
In December 1999, the Company transferred $100,000 of paid-in-capital to common
stock to comply with state insurance department requirements. As a result of
this transfer the total value of the common stock differs from the par value
times the number of shares. This had no impact on the Company's financial
position or results of operations.

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, 1999, the Company
had no significant concentration of credit risk.
The fair values for fixed maturities are primarily based on values obtained from
independent pricing services. Such independent values are not available for
private placement securities. The carrying amount of the Company's private
placement securities, which is the Company's estimate of fair value, was
$275,600,000 and $254,400,000 at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. In
order to determine the carrying value of private placement securities, the
Company uses market values of public securities of similar credit quality,
yields, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, and other market data.

Mortgage loans are collateralized by properties located throughout the United
States. At December 31, 1999, approximately 12% and 18% of the mortgages were
collateralized by properties located in New York and California, respectively.
All of the mortgage loans at December 31, 1999, are in good standing, and the
Company was not holding any valuation allowances related to such loans. Mortgage
loans outstanding at December 31 are summarized as follows (in thousands):

</TABLE>
The carrying amount of policy loans and mortgage loans approximates fair value
because the interest rates on these loans approximate market rates.
The Company's short-term balances are invested in the Metropolitan Money Market
Pool (the Pool) which is managed by MetLife for the benefit of its subsidiaries.
The Pool invests solely in instruments having a maturity of one year or less. At
December 31, 1999, the interest rate on the Pool was 5.8%.
On February 5, 1998, the Company entered into an interest-rate cap agreement
with a large counterparty for the purpose of minimizing exposure to fluctuations
in interest rates in its policyholders liabilities. An interest-rate cap is a
contract whereby one party agrees to pay a premium at the inception of the
contract in exchange for the assumption of risk that the market interest rate
will exceed the cap rate. Under the interest-rate cap agreement, the
counterparty agrees to pay the Company, on a quarterly basis, an amount by which
the 5-year Constant Maturity Treasury Rate exceeds the interest-rate cap of
7.90% applied to the notional amount of $250,000,000. The 5-year Constant
Maturity Treasury Rate was 6.33% as of December 31, 1999, and the fair value of
the interest-rate cap as of that date was $114,000. The interest-rate cap
agreement expires February 9, 2001.
Any income or expense from the interest-rate cap is recorded on an accrual basis
as an adjustment to the yield of the related interest-bearing liabilities in the
periods covered by the contract. The Company is exposed to a potential loss in
the event of non-performance by the counterparty, although such non-performance
is not anticipated.
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, 1999, investment securities having an amortized cost of
$5,568,000 were on deposit with various states in accordance with state
insurance department requirements.

NOTE 9 -- IMPACT OF YEAR 2000 (unaudited)
The Company has conducted a comprehensive review of its computer systems to
identify the systems that could be affected by the Year 2000 issue and has
implemented a plan to resolve the issue. The Company believes that, with the
modifications made to existing software and conversions to new software and
hardware, the Year 2000 will not pose significant operational problems for the
Company's computer systems. However, there can be no assurances that the Year
2000 plan of the Company or that of its vendors or third parties have resolved
all Year 2000 issues.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Board of Directors
Security First Life Insurance Company:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the schedules of investments, of the Security First Life Separate Account A (the
"Separate Account") Series B, G, T, P, I, FA, FG, FI, FO, FM, SU, SV, AS, SI,
FC, FE, NG, NP, JW, MFSG, MFSR, MFND, AC, AB, AV, AI, FDE, FDH, FDA, FDG, OB,
OG, OM, OS, OSM, VKEM, VKER, and VKS, as of December 31, 1999, and the related
statements of operations for the year then ended (as to Series MFSG, MFSR, MFND,
AC, AB, AV, AI, FDE, FDH, FDA, FDG, OB, OG, OM, OS, OSM, VKEM, VKER, and VKS,
for the period from commencement of operations through December 31, 1999) and
statements of changes in net assets for the periods ended December 31, 1999 and
1998. 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. 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, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of each of the respective Series constituting
the Security First Life Separate Account A as of December 31, 1999, and the
results of their operations for the year then ended (as to Series MFSG, MFSR,
MFND, AC, AB, AV, AI, FDE, FDH, FDA, FDG, OB, OG, OM, OS, OSM, VKEM, VKER, and
VKS, for the period of commencement of operations through December 31, 1999) and
the changes in their net assets for the periods ended December 31, 1999 and
1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

SECURITY FIRST LIFE SEPARATE ACCOUNT A
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999

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

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 thirty-four mutual funds (the investment companies). The
series of the Trust are Bond Series, T. Rowe Price Growth and Income Series,
Equity Series, and U.S. Government Income Series and the mutual funds are T.

NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)
Growth and Income Series by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., to the Security
First Trust Bond Series by Neuberger and Berman, and to the Security First Trust
Equity Series and to the Security First Trust U.S. Government Income Series by
Blackrock, Inc.
The Separate Account and each series therein are administered and accounted for
as part of the business of Security Life. 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
INVESTMENTS -- Investments are carried at fair value, which is determined by
multiplying the investment companies' 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:
Contract Type Annual Rate Daily Rate
SF 135R2V; SF 224FL; SF 89; SF 234;
SF 236FL; SF 1700 Contracts .89% .0000244
SF 228DC Contracts 1.25% .0000342

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
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, if applicable, 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 all or a portion of the
participant's account, a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) may be applied
to the amount of the contract value withdrawn to cover certain expenses relating
to the sale of contracts. The following table illustrates contract charges and
CDSC with respect to the various types of contracts:

NOTE 2 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
In addition, transaction charges of $10 are charged to the contract by Security
Life for each surrender or annuitization. Upon conversion of either accumulation
or annuity units from one series to another, a $10 conversion charge is charged
to the contract. The amount deducted for contract charges and CDSC was
$1,889,180 for the year ended December 31, 1999, and $1,507,924 for the year
ended December 31, 1998.
INCOME RECOGNITION AND REINVESTMENT -- Income is recognized as declared payable
by the investment companies. All distributions received are reinvested in the
investment companies.
ESTIMATES -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principals requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
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 - IMPACT OF YEAR 2000 (unaudited)
The Company has conducted a comprehensive review of its computer systems to
identify the systems that could be affected by the Year 2000 issue and has
implemented a plan to resolve the issue. The Company believes that, with the
modifications made to existing software and conversions to new software and
hardware, the Year 2000 will not pose significant operational problems for the
Company's computer systems. However, there can be no assurances that the Year
2000 plan of the Company or that of its vendors or third parties have resolved
all Year 2000 issues.
