RE: N-4 Filing by Separate Account I of National Integrity Life Insurance
Company ("National Integrity")
Accession No: 0001047469-98-018280
------------------------------------
Dear Sir/Madam:
On May 5, 1998, National Integrity filed a post-effective amendment to a
registration statement pursuant to Rule 485 (b) on Form N-4 on behalf of its
Separate Account I (File Nos. 33-56658 and 811-4846). Due to an error by our
printer/EDGAR filer, a portion of Part C of this registration statement was
inadvertently omitted. Accordingly, National Integrity requests that the
above-referenced filing on Form N-4 be withdrawn. This Form N-4 will be refiled
later today with a filing date of May 6, 1998.
Your consideration in this matter is very much appreciated. If you should
have any questions regarding this request, please feel free to call the
undersigned at (502) 582-7956.
Sincerely,
/s/ Kevin L. Howard
Kevin L. Howard
Assistant General Counsel
