Re: Separate Account I of Integrity Life Insurance Company
This opinion is furnished in connection with the filing by Integrity Life
Insurance Company ("Integrity") of a Notice (the "Notice") pursuant to Rule 24f-
2 (the "Rule") under the Investment Company Act of 1940 relating to the
registration by Integrity and its Separate Account I (also known as Separate
Account INA) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") of an indefinite
number of units of interest (the "Units") of group deferred variable annuity
contracts (the "Contracts"). In reliance upon the Rule, 6,160,733 Units with an
aggregate sale price of $115,577,094 were sold in 1996 (the "1996 Units").
I have examined all such corporate records of Integrity and such other documents
and such laws as I consider appropriate as a basis for the opinion hereinafter
expressed. On the basis of such examination, it is my opinion that the
Contracts under which the 1996 Units were issued, the registration of which the
Notice makes definite in number, are validly issued and binding obligations of
Integrity in accordance with their terms and are nonassessable.
Sincerely,
/s/ Kevin L. Howard
