Report of Independent Accountants
To the Contract Owners of Investors Life Insurance Company of North America
Separate Account I and the Board of Directors of Investors Life Insurance
Company of North America
In our opinion, the accompanying combined balance sheet and the related
individual statements of operations and of changes in total assets present
fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of the
subdivisions comprising the Investors Life Insurance Company of North America
Separate Account I (the Separate Account) at December 31, 1999, the results of
each of their operations for the year then ended and the changes in each of
their total assets for the two years in the period then ended, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. 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 of these financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in the
United States which 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, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 1999 by
correspondence with the underlying funds provide a reasonable basis for the
opinion expressed above.

INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NORTH AMERICA
SEPARATE ACCOUNT I
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1999
Note 1. Organization
Investors Life Insurance Company of North America ("Investors Life") established
Investors Life Insurance Company of North America - Separate Account I (the
"Separate Account") as a unit investment trust registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended. Operations of the Separate Account commenced on
September 15, 1982. The Separate Account currently has four Divisions each
corresponding to a portfolio of Putnam Variable Trust (formerly known as Putnam
Capital Manager Trust). Prior to the substitution of shares of Putnam Variable
Trust for shares of CIGNA Annuity Funds Group as the underlying funding vehicle
for the Separate Account (the "Substitution"), the Separate Account contained
five divisions. The Substitution was effective as of April 18, 1995, following
approvals of the Substitution by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and
the contractholders having their contract values determined by the affected
portfolios of the CIGNA Annuity Funds Group. In connection with the
Substitution, the Equity Division was merged with the Growth and Income
Division; thereafter, the Equity Division was renamed the Growth and Income
Division II. Each Division contains two subdivisions, one for the allocation of
tax qualified and one for the allocation of non-tax qualified net payments made
under variable annuity contracts.
Net purchase payments to the Separate Account may be allocated to one or more of
the following classes of shares of the Putnam Variable Trust: Putnam Variable
Trust Money Market Fund, Putnam Variable Trust Income Fund (formerly Putnam
Variable Trust U.S. Government and High Quality Bond Fund), Putnam Variable
Trust Growth and Income Fund or Putnam Variable Trust Voyager Fund. The contract
owners' equity of each subdivision of the Separate Account is affected by the
investment results of the appropriate portfolio(s) of shares of Putnam Variable
Trust designated for the subdivision and the mortality risk and expense fees
guarantees assessed on the Separate Account assets (See Note 3), and the
administrative charge deductions.
Under the current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"),
transfers of contract values from one division of the Separate Account to
another division are not subject to current taxation. There can be no assurance
that future changes in the Code will not subject such transfers to current
taxation.
<PAGE>
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
Following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Separate
Account:
(a) the market value of the investments is based on closing bid prices (net
asset value) at December 31, 1999; (b) investment transactions are accounted for
on the trade date and income is recorded on the ex-dividend date; (c) the cost
of investments sold is determined on the specific identification method. See
Notes 4 and 5 with respect to income taxes.
Note 3. Contract Owner Transactions
Net contract considerations represent gross contributions under variable annuity
contracts less deductions by Investors Life for any applicable premium taxes.
Net contract considerations for the year ended December 31, 1999, were $117,666
after deductions for premium taxes of $0 . Contract owners have limited rights
to transfer their contract values between Separate Account Divisions. For the
year ended December 31, 1999, the total of all transfers was $259,621. Contract
surrender benefits amounted to $5,656,717. Annuity benefits amounted to
$415,291. Investors Life charges a fee to each Separate Account subdivision for
assuming the mortality risk and expense fees guarantees. The daily equivalent of
the annual charge of 1.2% is made against the average net value of the Separate
Account.
Note 4. Income Taxes
Investors Life is taxed as a life insurance company under the Code. The Separate
Account is taxed as a part of Investors Life. Under the current provisions of
the Code, no federal income taxes are payable by Investors Life with respect to
the operations of the Separate Account when such operations are used to
determine the contract values of the Separate Account. Investors Life retains
the right to make adjustments for taxes to Separate Account assets should future
changes in the Internal Revenue Code so warrant.
Note 5. Diversification Requirements
Under the provisions of Section 817(h) of the Code, a variable annuity contract,
other than a contract issued in connection with certain types of employee
benefit plans, will not be treated as an annuity contract for federal tax
purposes for any period for which the investments of the segregated asset
account on which the contract is based are not adequately diversified. The Code
provides that the "adequately diversified" requirement may be met if the
underlying investments satisfy either a statutory safe harbor test or
diversification requirements set forth in regulations issued by the Secretary of
Treasury.
The Internal Revenue Service has issued regulations under section 817(h) of the
Code. Investors Life believes that the Separate Account satisfies the current
requirements of the regulations.
