             INDIVIDUAL NON-TAX QUALIFIED VARIABLE ANNUITY CONTRACTS

                          237 WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT ROAD

This prospectus offers a multiple funded, single purchase payment, individual
variable annuity contract, designed for non-tax qualified retirement plans, that
provides for the accumulation of values and the payment of annuity benefits on a
variable and/or fixed basis. Unless specifically stated otherwise, only
provisions relating to the variable portion of the contracts are described in
this prospectus. The fixed portion ("Guaranteed Accumulation Account") is
briefly described in an appendix to the Statement of Additional Information.

Variable annuities are designed to provide lifetime annuity payments which will
vary with the investment results of the investment vehicle chosen. The
accumulation value of a contract will vary with the investment performance of
Ohio National Fund, Inc. (the "Fund"), prior to the annuity payout date, and the
amount of each annuity payment will vary with the Fund's investment performance
subsequent to the commencement of annuity payments. There can be no assurance
that the value of a contract during the years prior to the annuity payout date
or the aggregate amount of annuity payments received after such date will equal
or exceed the purchase payments made therefor.

The variable annuity contracts offered by this prospectus are flexible purchase
payment contracts designed to be sold on an individual basis for use in
retirement plans which do not qualify for special tax treatment under the
Internal Revenue Code.

The minimum purchase payment is $10,000. Generally, the maximum purchase payment
is $500,000.

The net purchase payment (after deduction of any applicable state premium tax)
is allocated to one or more subaccounts of Ohio National Variable Account B
("VAB") in such portion as the contract owner may choose. VAB is a separate
account established by The Ohio National Life Insurance Company ("Ohio National
Life"). The assets of VAB are invested in shares of the Fund, a mutual fund
having nine investment portfolios: Equity Portfolio, Money Market Portfolio,
Bond Portfolio, Omni Portfolio, International Portfolio, Capital Appreciation
Portfolio, Small Cap Portfolio, Global Contrarian Portfolio and Aggressive
Growth Portfolio (see the accompanying prospectus of the Fund).

All or part of the contract's accumulation value may be withdrawn before the
annuity payout date. Amounts withdrawn may be subject to federal income tax
penalties, and a contingent deferred sales charge may be assessed up to 6% of
the amount withdrawn.

The contracts offered hereby may be revoked by the purchaser without penalty
within 20 days of their delivery.

THIS PROSPECTUS SHOULD BE RETAINED FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. IT SETS FORTH THE
INFORMATION ABOUT VAB AND THE VARIABLE ANNUITY CONTRACTS OFFERED BY THIS
PROSPECTUS THAT YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE INVESTING. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT
VAB HAS BEEN FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION IN A STATEMENT OF
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION DATED MAY 1, 1996. THE STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION IS INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE AND IS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST
AND WITHOUT CHARGE BY WRITING OR CALLING OHIO NATIONAL LIFE AT THE ABOVE
ADDRESS. THE TABLE OF CONTENTS FOR THE STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IS ON

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND
EXCHANGE COMMISSION NOR HAS THE COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY
OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

The purpose of the above table is to help you to understand the costs and
expenses that a variable annuity contractowner will bear directly or indirectly.
THE EXAMPLE INCLUDED IN THE ABOVE TABLE SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A
REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE EXPENSE, AND ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR
LESS THAN THOSE SHOWN. Note that the expense amounts shown in the example are
aggregate amounts for the total number of years indicated. Neither the table nor
the example reflect any premium taxes that may be applicable to a contract,
which currently range from 0% to 3.5%. The above table and example reflect only
the charges for contracts currently offered by this prospectus and not other
contracts that may be offered by Ohio National Life. For further details, see
Deductions and Expenses, page 7.

*For the Money Market Porfolio, management fees in excess of 0.25% are presently
being waived by the Fund's investment adviser. Without the waiver, the Money
Market Portfolio's Management Fee would be 0.30%, its Total Fund Annual Expenses
would be 0.49%, and its expenses would total $76 for a $1,000 contract
surrendered at the end of 1 year, $84 if surrendered at the end of 3 years, $98
if surrendered at the end of 5 years or $167 if surrendered at the end of 10
years. For a $1,000 contract annuitized or not surrendered, the expenses without
the waiver would be $14 for 1 year, $44 for 3 years, $76 for 5 years or $167 for
10 years.

The complete financial statements of VAB and Ohio National Life, and the

Additional Information.

                           THE OHIO NATIONAL COMPANIES


OHIO NATIONAL LIFE

Ohio National Life was organized under the laws of Ohio in 1909 as a stock life 
insurance company and became a mutual life insurance company in 1959. It writes
life, accident and health insurance and annuities in 46 states and the District
of Columbia. Currently it has assets in excess of $5.5 billion and equity in
excess of $500 million. Its home office is located at 237 William Howard Taft
Road, Cincinnati, Ohio.

OHIO NATIONAL VARIABLE ACCOUNT B

VAB was established in 1969 by Ohio National Life as a separate account under
Ohio law for the purpose of funding variable annuity contracts. Purchase
payments for the variable annuity contracts are allocated to one or more
subaccounts of VAB. Income, gains and losses, whether or not realized, from
assets allocated to VAB are, as provided in the contracts, credited to or
charged against VAB without regard to other income, gains or losses of Ohio
National Life. The assets maintained in VAB will not be charged with any
liabilities arising out of any other business conducted by Ohio National Life.
Nevertheless, all obligations arising under the contracts, including the
commitment to make annuity payments, are general corporate obligations of Ohio
National Life. Accordingly, all of Ohio National Life's assets are available to
meet its obligations under the contracts. VAB is registered as a unit investment
trust under the 1940 Act.

OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.

The assets of each subaccount of VAB are invested at net asset value (without an
initial sales charge) in shares of a corresponding portfolio of the Fund: the
Equity Portfolio, Money Market Portfolio, Bond Portfolio, Omni Portfolio (a
flexible portfolio fund), International Portfolio, Capital Appreciation
Portfolio, Small Cap Portfolio, Global Contrarian Portfolio or Aggressive Growth
Portfolio. The Fund is a diversified, open-end, management investment company
registered under the 1940 Act. The value of the Fund's investments fluctuates
daily and is subject to the risk of changing economic conditions as well as the
risk inherent in the ability of management to anticipate changes necessary in
such investments to meet changes in economic conditions. The Fund receives
investment advice, for a fee, from its investment adviser, Ohio National
Investments, Inc., and from Societe Generale Asset Management Corp. (sub-adviser
to the International and Global Contrarian Portfolios), T. Rowe Price
Associates, Inc. (sub-adviser to the Capital Appreciation Portfolio), Founders
Asset Management, Inc. (sub-adviser to the Small Cap Portfolio), and Strong
Capital Management, Inc. (sub-adviser to the Aggressive Growth Portfolio). For
additional information concerning the Fund, including the investment objectives
of each of its portfolios, see the attached Fund prospectus. Read the Fund
prospectus carefully before investing.

                                       5
<PAGE>   10
In addition to being offered to VAB, Fund shares are currently offered to other
separate accounts of Ohio National Life in connection with variable annuity
contracts and a separate account of Ohio National Life Assurance Corporation in
connection with variable life insurance contracts. In the future, Fund shares
may be offered to other insurance company separate accounts. It is conceivable
that in the future it may become disadvantageous for both variable life and
variable annuity separate accounts to invest in the Fund. Although neither Ohio
National Life nor the Fund currently foresees any such disadvantage, the Board
of Directors of the Fund will monitor events in order to identify any material
conflict between variable life and variable annuity contractowners and to
determine what action, if any, should be taken in response thereto, including
the possible withdrawal of VAB's participation in the Fund. Material conflicts
could result from such things as (1) changes in state insurance law; (2) changes
in federal income tax law; (3) changes in the investment management of any
portfolio of the Fund; or (4) differences between voting instructions given by
variable life and variable annuity contractowners.


VOTING RIGHTS

Ohio National Life shall vote Fund shares held in VAB at meetings of Fund
shareholders in accordance with voting instructions received from contract
owners. The number of Fund shares for which an owner is entitled to give
instructions will be determined by Ohio National Life in the manner described
below, not more than 90 days prior to the meeting of the Fund. Fund proxy
material will be distributed to each owner together with appropriate forms for
giving voting instructions. Fund shares held in VAB, for which no timely
instructions are received, will be voted by Ohio National Life in proportion to
the instructions which are received with respect to all contracts participating
in VAB.

During the accumulation period, the number of Fund shares for which instructions
may be given to Ohio National Life is determined by dividing the variable
accumulation value of a subaccount of the contract by the net asset value of a
share of the corresponding Fund portfolio as of the same date. During the
annuity payment period, the number of Fund portfolio shares for which such
instructions may be given is determined by dividing the actuarial liability for
variable annuities in the course of payment by the net asset value of a Fund
portfolio share as of the same date. Generally, the number of votes tends to
decrease as annuity payments progress.


                   DISTRIBUTION OF VARIABLE ANNUITY CONTRACTS

The variable annuity contracts are sold by Ohio National Life insurance agents
who are also registered representatives (a) of The O. N. Equity Sales Company
("ONESCO"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ohio National Life, registered under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and a member of the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. or (b) of other broker-dealers that have entered into
distribution agreements with the principal underwriter of the contracts. At the
date of this prospectus ONESCO was the principal underwriter of the contracts.
However, pending receipt of necessary regulatory approvals, Ohio National
Equities, Inc., a new wholly-owned subsidiary of Ohio National Life, will become
the principal underwriter. As compensation for their sales efforts, ONESCO and
the other broker-dealers will receive a fee from Ohio National Life equal to 6%
of purchase payments. ONESCO and the other broker-dealers will remunerate their
registered representatives from their own funds. Purchase payments on which no
compensation is paid to registered representatives will not be included in
amounts on which the 6% sales compensation will be paid to ONESCO and the other
broker-dealers. To the extent that the amount of the contingent deferred sales
charge received by Ohio National Life is not sufficient to recover the fee paid
to ONESCO and the other broker-dealers, any deficiency will be made up from Ohio
National Life's general account assets which include, among other things, any
profit from the mortality and expense risk charges.

                             DEDUCTIONS AND EXPENSES


CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE

No deduction for sales expense is made from purchase payments. A contingent
deferred sales charge may be assessed by Ohio National Life when a contract is
surrendered or a partial withdrawal of accumulation value is made before the
annuity payout date to defray expenses relating to the sale of the contract,
including compensation to sales personnel, cost of sales literature and
prospectuses, and other expenses related to sales activity. Such charge equals a
percentage of the contract value withdrawn. This percentage will vary with the
contract year in which the surrender or withdrawal occurs as follows:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
                     CONTRACT YEAR                      PERCENTAGE
                     -------------                      ----------
                     <S>                                <C>
                           1                                6%
                           2                                5%
                           3                                4%
                           4                                3%
                           5                                2%
                           6                                1%
                      7 and later                           0%
</TABLE>

Once each contract year, a partial withdrawal of not more than 10% of the
accumulation value (as of the first day of the contract year) may be made
without the imposition of the contingent deferred sales charge.


DEDUCTION FOR ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

A deduction is made at the end of each valuation period equal to 0.25% on an
annual basis of the contract value for administrative expenses. This deduction
is not designed to produce a profit but to reimburse Ohio National Life for
expenses incurred for accounting, auditing, legal, contract owner services,
reports to regulatory authorities and contract owners, contract issue, etc.
Because the administrative expense deduction is a percentage of assets, it is
possible that larger contracts may bear a portion of the cost of administering
smaller contracts.


DEDUCTION FOR RISK UNDERTAKINGS

Prior to the annuity payout date, Ohio National Life guarantees that the
accumulation value of all contracts will not be affected by any excess of sales
and administrative expenses over the deductions provided therefor. Ohio National
Life also guarantees to pay a death benefit in the event of the annuitant's
death prior to the annuity payout date (see Death Benefit, page 10). After the
annuity payout date, Ohio National Life guarantees that variable annuity
payments will not be affected by adverse mortality experience or expenses.

For assuming these risks, Ohio National Life, in determining the accumulation
unit values and the annuity unit values for each subaccount, makes a deduction
from the applicable investment results equal to 0.65% of the contract value on
an annual basis. Such deduction may be decreased by Ohio National Life at any
time and may be increased not more frequently than annually to not more than
1.55% on an annual basis. Although Ohio National Life views the risk charge as
an indivisible whole, of the amount currently being deducted, it has estimated
that a reasonable allocation would be 0.25% for mortality risk, and 0.4% for
expense risk. Although Ohio National Life hopes to realize a profit from this
charge, if the deduction is insufficient to cover the actual risk involved, the
loss will fall on Ohio National Life; conversely, if the deduction proves more
than sufficient, the excess will be a gain to Ohio National Life.


TRANSFER FEE

A transfer fee of $3 (which may be increased to $10) is made for transferring
contract values from one or more subaccounts to one or more other subaccounts.
The fee is charged against the subaccount(s) from which the transfer is
effected. Currently, no fee is charged for the first four transfers each year.

                                       7
<PAGE>   12
DEDUCTION FOR STATE PREMIUM TAX

Most states do not presently charge a premium tax for these contracts. Where a
tax applies, the rates are presently 1.0% in Puerto Rico, West Virginia and
Wyoming, 1.25% in South Dakota, 2.0% in Kansas, Kentucky and Maine, 2.25% in the
District of Columbia, 2.35% in California and 3.5% in Nevada. Normally, any such
applicable taxes will not be deducted until annuity payments begin. However, in
Kansas, South Dakota and Wyoming, they are presently being deducted from the
purchase payment.

FUND EXPENSES

There are deductions from, and expenses paid out of, the assets of the Fund.
These are described in the attached Fund prospectus.


                    DESCRIPTION OF VARIABLE ANNUITY CONTRACTS


20-DAY FREE LOOK

The contract owner may revoke the contract at any time until the end of 20 days
after receipt of the contract and receive a refund of the entire purchase price.
To revoke, the owner must return the contract to Ohio National Life within the
20 day period. In those states where required by state law, the value of the
contract as of the date of cancellation will be returned in lieu of the entire
purchase price in case of revocation during the 20 day free look period.

ACCUMULATION PERIOD

PURCHASE PAYMENT PROVISIONS

The contracts provide for a single minimum purchase payment of $10,000 and a
maximum payment of $500,000. A larger payment, or more than one payment, may be
made with Ohio National Life's consent.


ACCUMULATION UNITS

Prior to the annuity payout date, the contract value is measured by accumulation
units. The purchase payment results in the crediting of accumulation units to
the contract (see Crediting Accumulation Units, below). The number of
accumulation units so credited remains constant but the dollar value of
accumulation units will vary depending upon the investment results of the
particular subaccount to which contract values are allocated.


CREDITING ACCUMULATION UNITS

Completed application forms, together with a check for the purchase payment, are
forwarded to the home office of Ohio National Life for acceptance. Upon
acceptance, a contract is issued to the contract owner, and the purchase payment
is then credited to the contract in the form of accumulation units. The purchase
payment is credited not later than two business days after receipt if the
application and all information necessary for processing the purchase payment
are complete. If an application is not accepted within five business days, the
purchase payment will be returned immediately to the applicant unless the
applicant specifically consents to having Ohio National Life retain the purchase
payment until the application is completed. After that, the purchase payment
will be credited within two business days.


ALLOCATION OF THE PURCHASE PAYMENT

In the contract application, you may direct the allocation of your purchase
payment among the subaccounts of VAB and the general account of Ohio National
Life. The amount allocated to any subaccount or the general account must equal a
whole percentage.

                                       8
<PAGE>   13
ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE AND ACCUMULATION VALUE

The accumulation unit value of each subaccount of VAB was set at $10 when the
first payment was allocated to each such subaccount. The accumulation unit value
for any subsequent valuation period is determined by multiplying the
accumulation unit value for the immediately preceding valuation period by the
net investment factor (described below) for such subsequent valuation period.
The accumulation value is determined by multiplying the total number of
accumulation units (for each subaccount) credited to the contract by the
accumulation unit value (for such subaccount) for the valuation period for which
the accumulation value is being determined.


NET INVESTMENT FACTOR

The net investment factor is a quantitative measure of the investment results of
each subaccount of VAB. The net investment factor for each subaccount for any
valuation period is determined by dividing (a) by (b), then subtracting (c) from
the result, where:

(a)  is -

(1)  the net asset value of a share in the appropriate portfolio of the Fund 
     determined as of the end of a valuation period, plus

(2)  The per share amount of any dividends or other distributions declared for
     that portfolio by the Fund if the "ex-dividend" date occurs during the
     valuation period, plus or minus

(3)  per share charge or credit for any taxes paid or reserved for which is
     determined by Ohio National Life to result from the maintenance or
     operation of that subaccount of VAB; (No federal income taxes are
     applicable under present law.)

     (b) is the net asset value of a share in the appropriate portfolio of the 
         Fund determined as the end of the preceding valuation period; and

     (c) is the deduction for administrative and sales expenses and risk
         undertakings. (See Deduction for Administrative Expenses, page 7, and
         Deduction for Risk Undertakings, page 7.)


SURRENDER AND PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL

Prior to the annuity payout date, the owner of a contract may surrender (totally
withdraw the value of) his or her contract for its accumulation value or elect a
partial (at least $500) withdrawal therefrom. These transactions may be subject
to the contingent deferred sales charge described on page 7. Such charge is a
percentage of the total amount withdrawn. For example, if a partial withdrawal
of $500 is requested during the first contract year, Ohio National Life would
pay you $500, but the total amount deducted from the accumulation value would be
$531.91 (i.e., $531.91 x 6% $31.91). Unless otherwise specified, the withdrawal
will be made pro-rata from the values of each subaccount. The amount available
for withdrawal is the sum of the subaccount values less any contingent deferred
sales charge, provided, however, that no partial withdrawal that would cause the
contract value to fall below $5,000 will be allowed. Payment by Ohio National
Life shall be made within seven days from the date of receipt of the request for
such payment except as it may be deferred under the circumstances described
below. (For tax consequences of a surrender or withdrawal, see Federal Tax
Status, page 13.)

Occasionally Ohio National Life may receive a request for a surrender or partial
withdrawal before the check for your purchase payment has cleared the banking
system. Ohio National Life may delay the surrender or partial withdrawal until
your check has cleared. Ohio National Life requires the return of the contract
in the case of a complete surrender.

The right to withdraw may be suspended or the date of payment postponed (1) for
any period during which the New York Stock Exchange is closed (other than
customary weekend and holiday closings) or during which trading on the Exchange,
as determined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, is restricted; (2) for
any period during which an emergency, as determined by the Commission, exists as
a result of which disposal of securities held in the Fund is not reasonably
practical, or it is not reasonably practical to determine the value of the
Fund's net assets; or (3) or such other periods as the Commission may by order
permit for the protection of security holders.

                                       9
<PAGE>   14
TRANSFERS AMONG SUBACCOUNTS

Contract values may be transferred from one subaccount to another upon the
request of the owner. Transfers may be made at any time during the accumulation
period. The amount of any such transfer must be at least $300 (or the entire
value of the contract's interest in a subaccount, if less). Ohio National Life
reserves the right to limit the number, frequency, method or amount of
transfers. Transfers from any portfolio of the Fund on any one day may be
limited to 1% of the previous day's total net assets of that portfolio if Ohio
National Life or the Fund, in its or their discretion, believes that the
portfolio might otherwise be damaged. After the annuity payout date, transfers
among subaccounts can only be made once each calendar quarter. Such transfers
may then be made without a transfer fee. (See Transfer Fee, page 7, and
Transfers After Annuity Payout Date, page 12.)

SCHEDULED TRANSFERS (DOLLAR COST AVERAGING)

Ohio National Life administers a scheduled transfer ("DCA") program enabling you
to preauthorize automatic monthly or quarterly transfers of a specified dollar
amount from any variable subaccount(s) to any other subaccount(s), including the
Guaranteed Accumulation Account. Each DCA transfer must be at least $500 and at
least 12 DCA transfers must be scheduled. No transfer fee is charged for DCA
transfers. Ohio National Life may discontinue the DCA program at any time. You
may also discontinue further DCA transfers by giving Ohio National Life written
notice at least 7 business days before the next scheduled transfer.

DCA generally has the effect of reducing the risk of purchasing at the top, and
selling at the bottom, of market cycles. DCA Transfers from a fund with a
stabilized net asset value, such as the Money Market subaccount, will generally
reduce the average total cost of indirectly purchasing Fund shares because
greater numbers of shares will be purchased when the share prices are lower than
when prices are higher. However, DCA does not assure you of a profit, nor does
it protect against losses in a declining market. Moreover, for transfers from a
subaccount not having a stabilized net asset value, DCA will have the effect of
reducing the average price of the shares being redeemed. DCA might also be used
to systematically transfer accumulation values from variable subaccounts to the
General Accumulation Account, in anticipation of retirement, in order to reduce
the risk of making a single transfer during a low market.


TELEPHONE TRANSFERS

If the contract owner first submits a pre-authorization form to Ohio National
Life, transfers may be made by telephoning Ohio National Life at 1-800-635-3225.
Ohio National Life will honor pre-authorized telephone transfer instructions
from anyone who is able to provide the personal identifying information
requested, but reserves the right to refuse to honor any such request if that
seems prudent. Ohio National Life will use reasonable procedures to confirm that
telephone instructions are genuine. (Otherwise, Ohio National Life may be liable
for any losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions.) A written
confirmation will be sent following each telephone transfer.


DEATH BENEFIT

In the event of the death of the annuitant prior to the annuity payout date, the
contract provides a death benefit to be paid to a designated beneficiary. The
amount of the death benefit will be determined as of the end of the valuation
period in which written notice of death of the annuitant is received by Ohio
National Life. It will be paid in one sum into an interest-bearing checking
account established in the beneficiary's name with Bank One, Springfield,
Illinois, unless the owner or beneficiary elects settlement under one or more of
the settlement options provided in the contract. The checking account will bear
interest based upon then current money market rates. The beneficiary will then
be able to write checks against such account at any time and in any amount up to
the total in the account. Such checks must be for a minimum of $250. The amount
of death benefit is the accumulation value of the contract or, if greater, the
difference between your purchase payment and any partial withdrawals.

                                       10

OHIO NATIONAL LIFE EMPLOYEE DISCOUNT

Ohio National Life and its affiliated companies offer a credit on the purchase
of contracts by any of their employees, directors or retirees, or their spouse
or the surviving spouse of a deceased retiree, covering any of the foregoing or
any of their minor children, or any of their children ages 18 to 21 who is
either (i) living in the purchaser's household or (ii) a full-time college
student being supported by the purchaser or any of the purchaser's minor
grandchildren under the Uniform Gifts to Minors Act. This credit is treated as
additional income under the contract. The amount of the credit equals 3.5% of
the single purchase payment. Ohio National Life credits the Guaranteed
Accumulation Account of the employee's contract in this amount at the time the
purchase payment is made by the employee.


ANNUITY PERIOD
ANNUITY PAYOUT DATE

Annuity payments under a contract will begin on the annuity payout date. This
date is selected by the owner at the time the contract is issued and must be at
least 30 days after the contract date. It may be changed from time to time by
the owner so long as the annuity payout date selected is the first day of any
month at least 30 days after the date of such change. The contract restricts the
annuity payout date to not later than the first of the month following the
annuitant's 75th birthday; however, this restriction may be waived by mutual
agreement between Ohio National Life and the owner.

The contracts include Ohio National Life's assurance that annuity payments will
be paid for the lifetime of the annuitant in accordance with the annuity rates
contained in the contract, regardless of actual mortality experience.

Once annuity payments commence, the contract cannot be surrendered for cash
except that, upon the death of the annuitant, the beneficiary shall be entitled
to surrender the contract for the commuted value of any remaining period-certain
payments.


ANNUITY OPTIONS

The owner may elect one or more of the following annuity options, and may change
such election anytime before the annuity payout date.

       Option 1(a):    Life Annuity with installment payments for the
                       lifetime of the annuitant (under this option it is
                       possible for the annuitant to receive only one payment;
                       this could happen if the annuitant should die before
                       receiving the second payment; there is no residual value
                       of the contract after annuitant's death).

       Option 1(b):    Life Annuity with installment payments guaranteed
                       for five years and continuing thereafter during the
                       remaining lifetime of the annuitant.

       Option 1(c):    Life Annuity with installment payments guaranteed
                       for ten years and continuing thereafter during the
                       remaining lifetime of the annuitant.

       Option 1(d):    Installment Refund Life Annuity with payments
                       guaranteed for a period certain and continuing thereafter
                       during the remaining lifetime of the annuitant. The
                       number of period-certain payments is equal to the amount
                       applied under this option divided by the amount of the
                       first payment.

       Option 2(a):    Joint & Survivor Life Annuity with installment
                       payments during the lifetime of an annuitant and
                       continuing during the lifetime of a designated contingent
                       annuitant (under this option it is possible for the
                       annuitant and contingent annuitant to receive only one
                       payment; this could happen if both were to die before
                       receiving the second payment).

       Option 2(b):    Joint & Survivor Life Annuity with installment
                       payments guaranteed for ten years and continuing
                       thereafter during the remaining lifetime of the annuitant
                       or a designated contingent annuitant.

                                       11
<PAGE>   16
Unless the contract owner directs otherwise, as of the annuity payout date the
contract values will be applied to provide annuity payments pro-rata from each
subaccount in the same proportion as the contract values immediately prior to
the annuity payout date.

If no election is in effect on the annuity payout date, the accumulation value
of the contract will be applied under Option 1(c) with the beneficiary as payee
for an remaining period-certain installments payable after the death of the
annuitant. Options 2(a) and 2(b) are available only with the consent of Ohio
National Life if the contingent annuitant is not related to the annuitant.

Other settlement options are available as agreed to by Ohio National Life.


DETERMINATION OF AMOUNT OF THE FIRST VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENT

The first variable annuity payment is determined by applying the accumulation
value for each subaccount in accordance with the settlement option tables
contained in the contract. The rates contained in those tables depend upon the
annuitant's (and any contingent annuitant's) age and sex and the option
selected. The accumulation value to be applied is determined at the end of a
valuation period (selected by Ohio National Life and uniformly applied) not more
than 10 valuation periods before the annuity payout date.

If the amount to be applied under an option is less than $5,000, the option
shall not be available and accumulation value shall be paid in a single sum to
the annuitant. If the first periodic payment under any option would be less than
$25, Ohio National Life reserves the right to change the frequency of payments
so that the first such payment is at least $25.


ANNUITY UNIT AND THE DETERMINATION OF SUBSEQUENT PAYMENTS

Subsequent variable annuity payments will vary to reflect the investment
performance of each applicable subaccount. The amount of each subsequent payment
is determined by annuity units. The number of annuity units for each subaccount
is determined by dividing the dollar amount of the first annuity payment from
each subaccount by the value of the subaccount annuity unit for the same
valuation period used to determine the accumulation value of the contract
applied to provide annuity payments. This number of annuity units remains fixed
during the annuity payment period unless changed as provided below.

The annuity unit value for each subaccount was set at $10 for the valuation
period as of which the first variable annuity payable from each subaccount of
VAB was calculated. The annuity unit value for each subsequent valuation period
equals the annuity unit value for the immediately preceding valuation period
multiplied by the net investment factor (see page 9) for such subsequent
valuation period and by a factor (0.9998925 for a one-day valuation period) to
neutralize the assumed interest rate discussed below.

The dollar amount of each subsequent variable annuity payment is equal to the
fixed number of annuity units for each subaccount multiplied by the value of the
annuity unit for the valuation period.

The annuity rate tables contained in the contracts are based on the Progressive
Annuity Mortality Table with compound interest at the effective rate of 4% per
year. A higher interest assumption would mean a higher initial annuity payment
but a more slowly rising series of subsequent annuity payments if annuity unit
values were increasing (or a more rapidly falling series of subsequent annuity
payments if annuity unit values were decreasing). A lower interest assumption
would have the opposite effect. If the actual net investment rate were equal to
the assumed interest rate, annuity payments would be level.


TRANSFERS AFTER ANNUITY PAYOUT DATE

After annuity payments have been made for at least 12 months, the annuitant can,
once each 12 months, change the subaccount(s) on which variable annuity payments
are based. On at least 30 days written notice to Ohio National Life at its home
office, that portion of the periodic variable annuity payment directed by the
annuitant will be changed to reflect the investment results of a different
subaccount. The annuity payment immediately after such change will be the amount
that would have been paid without such change. Subsequent payments will reflect
the new mix of subaccount allocation.

                                       12
<PAGE>   17
OTHER CONTRACT PROVISIONS
ASSIGNMENT

Any amount payable in settlement of the contracts may not be commuted,
anticipated, assigned or otherwise encumbered. To the extent permitted by law,
no such amounts shall be subject in any way to any legal process to subject them
to payment of any claims against an annuitant before the annuity payout date. A
contract may be collaterally assigned and the ownership may be transferred by
the owner before the annuity payout.


PERIODIC REPORTS

Ohio National Life will furnish each owner, at least annually after the first
contract year, and prior to the annuity payout date, a statement showing the
number of accumulation units credited to the contract by subaccount and the
accumulation unit value of each such unit as of a date not more than four months
from the date of furnishing of the report. In addition, as long as the contract
remains in effect, Ohio National Life will forward such periodic reports as may
be furnished it by the Fund.


SUBSTITUTION FOR FUND SHARES

If investment in the Fund is no longer possible or in Ohio National Life's
judgment becomes inappropriate to the purposes of the contract, Ohio National
Life may substitute another mutual fund. Substitution may be made with respect
to both existing investments and the investment of future purchase payments.
However, no such substitution will be made without any necessary approval of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. We may also add other investment portfolios
of the Fund as eligible investments of VAB.


CONTRACT OWNER INQUIRIES

Any questions from contract owners should be directed to Ohio National Life,
Variable Annuity Administration, P.O. Box 2669, Cincinnati, Ohio 45201;
telephone (513) 559-6452.


PERFORMANCE DATA

Ohio National Life may advertise performance data for the various Fund
portfolios showing the percentage change in the value of an accumulation unit
based on the performance of the applicable portfolio over a period of time
(usually a calendar year). Such percentage change is determined by dividing the
increase (or decrease) in value for the unit by the accumulation unit value at
the beginning of the period. This percentage figure will reflect the deduction
of any asset-based charges under the contracts but will not reflect the
deduction of any applicable contingent deferred sales charge which would reduce
any percentage increase or make greater any percentage decrease.

Any such advertising will also include average annual total return figures
calculated as shown in the Statement of Additional Information. The average
annual total return figures will reflect the deduction of applicable contingent
deferred sales charges as well as applicable asset-based charges.

Ohio National Life may also distribute sales literature comparing separate
account performance to the Consumer Price Index or to such established market
indexes as the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock
Index, IBC's Money Fund Reports, Lehman Brothers Bond Indices, Morgan Stanley
Europe Australia Far East Index, Morgan Stanley World Index, Russell 2000 Index,
or other variable annuity separate accounts.

                               FEDERAL TAX STATUS

The following discussion of federal income tax treatment of amounts received
under a variable annuity contract is not exhaustive, does not purport to cover
all situations, and is not intended as tax advice. A qualified tax adviser
should always be consulted with regard to the application of law to individual
circumstances. Tax laws can change, even with respect to contracts that have
already been issued. Tax law revisions, with unfavorable consequences to
contracts offered by this prospectus, could have retroactive effect on
previously issued contracts or on subsequent voluntary transactions in
previously issued contracts.

                                       13
<PAGE>   18
Ohio National Life is taxed as a life insurance company under Subchapter L of
the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). Since the operations of VAB are a part
of, and are taxed with, the operations of Ohio National Life, VAB is not
separately taxed as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the
Code.

The contracts described in this prospectus are considered annuity contracts
under Section 72 of the Code, which generally provides for taxation of
annuities. Under existing provisions of the Code, if the owner of the contract
is a natural person, any increase in the accumulation value of the contract is
not taxable to you as the owner or annuitant until you receive it, either in the
form of annuity payments, as contemplated by the contract, or in some other form
of distribution. With certain exceptions, where the owner of the contract is a
non-natural person (corporation, partnership or trust) any increase in the
accumulation value of the contract attributable to a purchase payment made after
February 28, 1986 will be treated as ordinary income received or accrued by the
owner during the current tax year.

When annuity payments commence under the contract each payment is taxable under
Section 72 of the Code as ordinary income in the year of receipt if the
annuitant has neither paid any portion of the purchase payment for the contract
nor has previously been taxed on any portion of the purchase payment. If any
portion of the purchase payment has been paid from or included in your taxable
income, this aggregate amount will be considered your "investment in the
contract." You will be entitled to exclude from your taxable income a portion of
each annuity payment equal to your "investment in the contract" divided by the
period of expected annuity payments, determined by your life expectancy and the
form of annuity benefit. Once your "investment in the contract" is recovered,
the entire portion of each annuity payment will be included in your taxable
income.

If an election is made to receive the accumulated value in a single sum in lieu
of annuity payments, the net amount so received will be treated as taxable
income to the extent it exceeds the "investment in the contract." A partial
withdrawal of contract values is taxable as income to the extent that the
accumulated value of the contract immediately before the payment exceeds the
"investment in the contract." Such a withdrawal is treated as a distribution of
earnings first and only second as a recovery of your "investment in the
contract." If any part of the value of the contract is assigned or pledged to
secure a loan, such value will be taxed as if it had been a partial withdrawal,
and it may be subject to the penalty tax.

There is a penalty tax equal to 10% of any amount that must be included in gross
income for tax purposes. The penalty will not apply to a redemption that is (1)
received on or after the taxpayer reaches age 59 1/2; (2) made to a beneficiary
on or after the death of the annuitant; (3) attributable to the taxpayer's
becoming disabled; (4) made as a series of substantially equal periodic payments
for the life of the annuitant (or joint lives of the annuitant and beneficiary);
(5) from a contract that is a qualified funding asset for purposes of a
structured settlement; or (6) made under an annuity contract that is purchased
with a single premium and with an annuity payout date not later than a year from
the purchase of the annuity. If an election is made not to have withholding
apply to the early withdrawal or if an insufficient amount is withheld, the
contract owner may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may also
incur penalties under the estimated tax rules if the withholding and estimated
tax payments are not sufficient. Failure to provide your taxpayer identification
number will automatically subject any payments under the contract to
withholding.

Section 1035(a) of the Code provides for tax-free exchanges of annuity
contracts, with the new contract maintaining the same tax status as the old. To
the extent that the value of a new contract is allocable to payments made prior
to August 14, 1982 under the old contract, any withdrawal of contract values
will be treated as a return of the investment in the contract to the extent
available. Amounts in excess of the investment in the contract will be treated
as ordinary income. Such contracts will be subject to the penalty tax only with
respect to amounts attributable to payments made after August 13, 1982.

When a contract is issued in connection with a deferred compensation plan or
arrangement, all rights, discretions and powers relative to the contract, are
vested in the employer and you must look only to your employer for the payment
of deferred compensation benefits. Generally an annuitant will have no
"investment in the contract" and amounts received by you from your employer
under a deferred compensation arrangement will be taxable in full as ordinary
income in the year of receipt.

CUSTODIAN

Ohio National Life has executed an agreement with The Provident Bank ("the
Bank"), Cincinnati, Ohio, pursuant to which the shares of Ohio National Fund,
Inc. ("Fund") and other assets credited to VAB will be held in the custody of
the Bank. The agreement provides that the Bank will purchase Fund shares at
their net asset value determined as of the end of the valuation period of VAB
during which the purchase payment is received by Ohio National Life. The Bank
effects redemptions of Fund shares held by VAB upon instructions from Ohio
National Life at net asset value determined as of the end of the valuation
period of VAB during which a redemption request is received or made by Ohio
National Life. In addition, the Bank maintains appropriate records with respect
to all transactions in Fund shares relative to VAB.

The agreement requires the Bank to have at all times an aggregate capital,
surplus and undivided profit of not less than $2 million and prohibits
resignation by the Bank until (a) a successor custodian bank having the
qualifications enumerated above shall have agreed to serve as custodian, or (b)
VAB has been completely liquidated and the proceeds of such liquidation properly
distributed. Subject to these conditions the agreement of custodianship may be
terminated by either party upon sixty days written notice. For its services as
custodian, the Bank will be paid a fee to be agreed upon from time to time by
the Bank and Ohio National Life.

INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

contracts. The aggregate amount of underwriting commissions paid to ONESCO with
respect to contracts issued by VAB, and the amounts retained by ONESCO, for each
of the last three years have been:

Pending receipt of necessary regulatory approvals, Ohio National Equities, Inc.,
a new wholly-owned subsidiary of Ohio National Life, will become the principal
underwriter of the contracts.

CALCULATION OF MONEY MARKET SUBACCOUNT YIELD

The current yield of the Money Market subaccount for the seven days ended on
December 31, 1995, was 4.53%. This was calculated 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 subaccount at the
beginning of the seven-day period, dividing the net change in subaccount value
by the value of the subaccount at the beginning of the base period to obtain the
base period return, and multiplying the difference by 365/7. The resulting
figure is carried to the nearest hundredth of one percent.

TOTAL RETURN

The average compounded rate of return for a contract with respect to a
particular subaccount over a given period is found by equating the initial
amount invested to the ending redeemable value using the following formula:


                                 P(1 + T) to the nth power = ERV

                  where:     P = a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000,
                             T = the average annual total return,
                             n = the number of years, and
                           ERV = the ending redeemable value of a hypothetical 
                                 $1,000 beginning-of-period payment at the end
                                 of the period (or fractional portion thereof).

For this purpose, it should be noted that the current series of contracts were
initially offered on October 7, 1993. Hypothetical results based upon the
performance of the subaccounts prior to that date assume that the same charges
and deductions applicable to the current contracts were in effect from the
inception of each corresponding portfolio of the Fund. Based on those
assumptions, the average annual total returns for contracts in each of the
subaccounts from the inception of the subaccount and for the one-, five- and
ten-year periods ending on December 31, 1995, and assuming surrender of the
contract on the latter date, are as follows:

TRANSFER LIMITATIONS

To the extent that transfers, surrenders, partial withdrawals and annuity
payments from a subaccount exceed net purchase payments and transfers into that
subaccount, securities of the corresponding portfolio of the Fund may have to be
sold. Excessive sales of a portfolio's securities on short notice could be
detrimental to that portfolio and to contractowners with values allocated to the
corresponding subaccount. To protect the interests of all contractowners, Ohio
National Life reserves the right to limit the number, frequency, method or
amount of transfers. Transfers from any portfolio of the Fund on any one day may
be limited to 1% of the previous day's total net assets of that portfolio if
Ohio National Life or the Fund, in its or their discretion, believes that the
portfolio might otherwise be damaged.

If and when transfers must be so limited, some transfer requests will not be
made. In determining which requests will be made, scheduled transfers (that is,
those pursuant to a pre-existing dollar cost averaging program) will be made
first, followed by mailed written requests in the order postmarked and, lastly,
telephone and facsimile requests in the order received. Contractowners whose
transfer requests are not made will be so notified. Current SEC rules preclude
Ohio National Life from processing at a later date those requests that were not
made. Accordingly, a new transfer request would have to be submitted in order to
make a transfer that was not made because of these limitations.

The Board of Directors
        The Ohio National Life Insurance Company

The Contract Owners
        Ohio National Variable Account B

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and contract owners'
equity of Ohio National Variable Account B as of December 31, 1995, and the
related statements of operations, changes in contract owners' equity and
schedules of changes in unit values for each of the periods indicated herein.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 1995, by examination of the
underlying mutual fund. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Ohio National Variable Account
B at December 31, 1995, and the results of its operations, changes in contract
owners' equity and changes in unit values for each of the periods indicated
herein, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                DECEMBER 31, 1995

(1)    BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Ohio
       National Variable Account B (the Account) is a separate account of The
       Ohio National Life Insurance Company (ONLIC) and all obligations arising
       under variable annuity contracts are general corporate obligations of
       ONLIC. The account has been registered as a unit investment trust under
       the Investment Company Act of 1940.

       Assets of the Account are invested in shares of Ohio National Fund, Inc.
       (the Fund), a diversified open-end management investment company. The
       Fund's investments are subject to varying degrees of market, interest and
       financial risks; the issuers' abilities to meet certain obligations may
       be affected by economic developments in their respective industries.

       Annuity reserves are computed for currently payable contracts according
       to the Progressive Annuity Mortality Table. The assumed interest rate is
       3.5 and 4.0 percent depending on the contract selected by the annuitant.
       Charges to annuity reserves for adverse mortality and expense risk
       experience are reimbursed to the Account by ONLIC.

       Investments are valued at the net asset value of fund shares held at
       December 31, 1995. Share transactions are recorded on the trade date.
       Income and capital gain distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend
       date. Net realized capital gain or loss is determined on the basis of
       average cost.

       The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
       accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
       assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
       and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
       financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
       during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
       estimates.

</TABLE>

(4)     RISK AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE

        A deduction is made at the end of each valuation period, equal to 0.25%
        on an annual basis, of the contract value for administrative expenses,
        based on premiums established at the time the contracts are issued.

        Although variable annuity payments differ according to the investment
        performance of the Accounts, they are not affected by mortality or
        expense experience because ONLIC assumes the expense risk and the
        mortality risk under the contracts. ONLIC charges the Accounts' assets
        for assuming those risks, based on the contract value at a rate of 0.25%
        for mortality risk and 0.4% for expense risk on an annual basis.

        The expense risk assumed by ONLIC is the risk that the deductions for
        sales and administrative expenses provided for in the variable annuity
        contract may prove insufficient to cover the cost of those terms.

        The mortality risk results from a provision in the contract in which
        ONLIC agrees to make annuity payments regardless of how long a
        particular annuitant or other payee lives and how long all annuitants or
        other payees as a class live if payment options involving life
        contingencies are chosen. Those annuity payments are determined in
        accordance with annuity purchase rate provisions established at the time
        the contracts are issued.

(5)     CONTRACT CHARGES

        No deduction for a sales charge is made from purchase payments. A
        contingent deferred sales charge ranging from 0% to 6% may be assessed
        by ONLIC when a contract is surrendered or a partial withdrawal of
        accumulation value is made before the annuity payout date.

        A transfer fee is charged for each transfer from one subaccount to
        another. The fee is charged against the contract owner's equity in the
        subaccount from which the transfer is effected.

        State premium taxes presently range from 0% to 2 1/2% for these
        contracts. In those jurisdictions permitting, such taxes will be
        deducted when annuity payments begin. Elsewhere, they will be deducted
        from purchase payments.

(6)     FEDERAL  INCOME TAXES

        Operations of the Account form a part of, and are taxed with, operations
        of ONLIC which is taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal
        Revenue Code. Taxes are the responsibility of the contract owner upon
        termination or withdrawal. No Federal income taxes are payable under
        present law on dividend income or capital gains distribution from the
        Fund shares held in the Account or on capital gains realized by the
        Account on redemption of the Fund shares.

(7)      NOTE TO SCHEDULE 1

         Schedule 1 presents the components of the change in the unit values,
         which are the basis for determining contract owners' equity. This
         schedule is presented for each series, as applicable, in the following
         format:

           -      Beginning unit value

           -      Reinvested capital gains and dividends
                  (This amount reflects the increase in the unit value due to
                  capital gain and dividend distributions from the underlying
                  mutual fund.)

           -      Unrealized gain (loss)
                  (This amount reflects the increase (decrease) in the unit
                  value resulting from the market appreciation (depreciation) of
                  the fund.)

           -      Contract charges
                  (This amount reflects the decrease in the unit value due to
                  Risk and Administrative Expenses discussed in note 4 to the
                  financial statements.)

           -      Ending unit value

           -      Percentage increase (decrease) in unit value.

                                    APPENDIX

GUARANTEED ACCUMULATION ACCOUNT

The Guaranteed Accumulation Account guarantees a fixed return for a specified
period of time and guarantees the principal against loss. Any portion of a
contract relating to the Guaranteed Accumulation Account is not registered under
the Securities Act of 1933. The Guaranteed Accumulation Account is not
registered as an investment company under the 1940 Act. Accordingly, neither the
Guaranteed Accumulation Account nor any interests in it are subject to the
provisions or restrictions of either such Act, and the disclosures in this
appendix have not been reviewed by the staff of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

The Guaranteed Accumulation Account consists of all of Ohio National Life's
general assets other than those allocated to a separate account. Accumulation
values under a contract will be allocated between the Guaranteed Accumulation
Account and VAB. The allocation will be as elected by the owner at the time of
purchase or as subsequently changed.

Ohio National Life will invest its general assets in its discretion as allowed
by applicable state law. Investment income from Ohio National Life's general
assets will be allocated to those contracts having guaranteed accumulation
values in accordance with the terms of such contracts.

The amount of investment income allocated to the contracts will vary from year
to year in Ohio National Life's sole discretion. However, Ohio National Life
guarantees that it will credit interest at a rate of not less than 3% per year,
compounded annually, to contract values allocated to the Guaranteed Accumulation
Account. Ohio National Life may credit interest at a rate in excess of 3%, but
any such excess interest credit will be in Ohio National Life's sole discretion.

Ohio National Life guarantees that the guaranteed accumulation value of a
contract will never be less that (a) the amount of purchase payments allocated
to, and transfers into, the Guaranteed Accumulation Account, plus (b) interest
credited at the rate of 3% per year compounded annually, plus (c) any additional
excess interest Ohio National Life may credit to guaranteed accumulation values,
and less (d) any partial withdrawals and transfers from the guaranteed
accumulation values, and less (e) any contingent deferred sales charges on
partial withdrawals, state premium taxes and transfer fees. No deductions are
made from the Guaranteed Accumulation Account for administrative expenses or
risk undertakings. (See "Deductions and Expenses" in the prospectus.)

Not more than 20% of the guaranteed accumulation value of a contract (or $1,000,
if greater), as of the beginning of any contract year, may be transferred to one
or more variable subaccounts during that contract year. As provided by
applicable state law, Ohio National Life reserves the right to defer the payment
of amounts withdrawn from the Guaranteed Accumulation Account for a period not
to exceed six months from the date written request for such withdrawal is
received by Ohio National Life.

ITEM 26.  PERSONS CONTROLLED BY OR UNDER COMMON CONTROL WITH THE DEPOSITOR OR
          REGISTRANT

The Organization Chart showing the relationships among the Depositor, the
Registrant and their affiliated entities is on page 4A hereof.

ITEM 27.  NUMBER OF CONTRACTOWNERS

As of February 1, 1996, the Registrant's contracts were owned by 7,023 owners.

ITEM 28.  INDEMNIFICATION

The sixth article of the Depositor's Articles of Incorporation, as amended,
provides as follows:

     Each former, present and future Director, Officer or Employee of the
     Corporation (and his heirs, executors or administrators), or any such
     person (and his heirs, executors or administrators) who serves at the
     Corporation's request as a director, officer, partner, member or employee
     of another corporation, partnership or business organization or association
     of any type whatsoever shall be indemnified by the Corporation against
     reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fine and amounts
     paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
     with the defense of any contemplated, pending or threatened action, suit or
     proceeding, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, other than an
     action by or in the right of the corporation, to which he is or may be made
     a party by reason of being or having been such Director, Officer, or
     Employee of the Corporation or having served at the Corporation's request
     as such director, officer, partner, member or employee of any other
     business organization or association, or in connection with any appeal
     therein, provided a determination is made by majority vote of a
     disinterested quorum of the Board of Directors (a) that such a person acted
     in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not
     opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and (b) that, in any
     matter the subject of criminal action, suit or proceeding, such person had
     no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of
     any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction,
     or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself
     create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith in any
     manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
     interests of the Corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or
     proceeding, he had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was
     unlawful. Such right of indemnification shall not be deemed exclusive of
     any other rights to which such person may be entitled. The manner by which
     the right to indemnification shall be determined in the absence of a
     disinterested quorum of the Board of Directors shall be set forth in the
     Code of Regulations or in such other manner as permitted by law. Each
     former, present, and future Director, Officer or Employee of the
     Corporation (and his heirs, executors or administrators) who serves at the
     Corporation's request as a director, officer, partner, member or employee
     of another corporation, partnership or business organization or association
     of any type whatsoever shall be indemnified by the Corporation against
     reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably
     incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of any
     contemplated, pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding, by or in
     the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor, to which
     he is or may be a party by reason of being or having been such Director,
     Officer or Employee of the Corporation or having served at the
     Corporation's request as such director, officer, partner, member or
     employee of any other business organization or association, or in
     connection with any appeal therein, provided a determination is made by
     majority vote of a disinterested quorum of the Board of Directors (a) that
     such person was not, and has not been adjudicated to have been negligent or
     guilty of misconduct in the performance of his duty to the Corporation or
     to such other business organization or association, and (b) that such
     person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in
     or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation.


                                      -5-
<PAGE>   41
     Such right of indemnification shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
     rights to which such person may be entitled. The manner by which the right
     of indemnification shall be determined in the absence of a disinterested
     quorum of the Board of Directors shall be as set forth in the Code of
     Regulations or in such other manner as permitted by law.

In addition, Article XII of the Depositor's Code of Regulations states as
follows:

     If any director, officer or employee of the Corporation may be entitled to
     indemnification by reason of Article Sixth of the Amended Articles of
     Corporation, indemnification shall be made upon either (a) a determination
     in writing of the majority of disinterested directors present, at a meeting
     of the Board at which all disinterested directors present constitute a
     quorum, that the director, officer or employee in question was acting in
     good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
     to the best interests of this Corporation or of such other business
     organization or association in which he served at the Corporation's
     request, and that, in any matter which is the subject of a criminal action,
     suit or proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct
     was unlawful and in an action by or in the right of the Corporation to
     procure a judgment in its favor that such person was not and has not been
     adjudicated to have been negligent or guilty of misconduct in the
     performance of his duty to the Corporation or to such other business
     organization or association; or (b) if the number of all disinterested
     directors would not be sufficient at any time to constitute a quorum, or if
     the number of disinterested directors present at two consecutive meetings
     of the Board has not been sufficient to constitute a quorum, a
     determination to the same effect as set forth in the foregoing clause (a)
     shall be made in a written opinion by independent legal counsel other than
     an attorney, or a firm having association with it an attorney, who has been
     retained by or who has performed services for this Corporation, or any
     person to be indemnified within the past five years, or by the majority
     vote of the policyholders, or by the Court of Common Pleas or the court in
     which such action, suit or proceeding was brought. Prior to making any such
     determination, the Board of Directors shall first have received the written
     opinion of General Counsel that a number of directors sufficient to
     constitute a quorum, as named therein, are disinterested directors. Any
     director who is a party to or threatened with the action, suit or
     proceeding in question, or any related action, suit or proceeding, or has
     had or has an interest therein adverse to that of the Corporation, or who
     for any other reason has been or would be affected thereby, shall not be
     deemed a disinterested director and shall not be qualified to vote on the
     question of indemnification. Anything in this Article to the contrary
     notwithstanding, if a judicial or administrative body determines as part of
     the settlement of any action, suit or proceeding that the Corporation
     should indemnify a director, officer or employee for the amount of the
     settlement, the Corporation shall so indemnify such person in accordance
     with such determination. Expenses incurred with respect to any action, suit
     or proceeding which may qualify for indemnification may be advanced by the
     Corporation prior to final disposition thereof upon receipt of an
     undertaking by or on behalf of the director, officer or employee to repay
     such amount if it is ultimately determined hereunder that he is not
     entitled to indemnification or to the extent that the amount so advanced
     exceeds the indemnification to which he is ultimately determined to be
     entitled.
