Re: Registration No. 33-25434
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have served as counsel to The Prudential Insurance Company of
America (the "Company") and to The Prudential Individual Variable
Contract Account (the "Account") in connection with the registration
with the Securities and Exchange Commission of an indefinite number of
securities (specifically variable annuity contracts) pursuant to Rule
24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The
Company and the Account are preparing to file a Rule 24f-2 Notice with
the Commission pursuant to which the registration of $277,608,000
worth of such securities issued during the year ended December 31,
1995 is made definite.
Based on our examination of the relevant documents contained in
the Account's registration statement, and assuming that the variable
annuity contracts were issued in accordance with the terms described
in that registration statement, that the Account received payment for
the contracts, and that the appropriate action was taken to qualify
the sale of the variable annuity contracts under applicable state
laws, we are of the opinion that the variable annuity contracts are
valid, legal and binding obligations of the Account in accordance with
their terms and are nonassessable.
We consent to the filing of this opinion, in connection with the
Rule 24f-2 Notice, with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Very truly yours,
SHEA & GARDNER
