Re: Registration Statement No. 2-75185
Gentlemen:
I have examined the documents relating to the establishment of NWNL Select
Variable Account, (the "Separate Account") for variable annuity contracts
established by the Board of Directors of Northwestern National Life Insurance
Company (the "Company") as a separate account pursuant to Minnesota Statutes
Section 61A.13 to 61A.21, as amended, and other matters of law as deemed
necessary for this opinion and advise you that in my opinion:
1. The Separate Account is a separate account of the Company duly created and
validly existing pursuant to the laws of the State of Minnesota.
2. The contracts that have been issued by the Company to date are described
in the prospectuses which constitute a part of the registration statements
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and are legal and
binding obligations of the Company in accordance with their respective
terms.
3. The portion of the assets held in the Separate Account equal to the
reserves and other contract liabilities with respect to the Separate
Account are not chargeable with liabilities out of any other business of
the Company.
I consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and Exchange
Commission in connection with the Company's filing a Rule 24f-2 Notice under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Robert B. Saginaw
Robert B. Saginaw
