Re: AIG Life Insurance Company
Variable Account II
Registration Number 33-90684
Gentlemen:
I am Assistant Secretary and Associate Counsel for AIG Life Insurance Company
(the "Company"), a Delaware stock life insurance corporation. In connection
with the offering of Variable Life Policies (the "Policies") of Variable
Account II (the "Account"), a segregated investment account of the Company, I
have examined such records and documents and have made such further
investigation and examination as I deemed necessary for the purpose of this
opinion.
It is my opinion that the Policies, the registration of which is made definite
by the accompanying Rule 24f-2 Notice of the Account, were legally issued,
fully paid and non-assessable by the Account to the extent set forth in the
Account's prospectus forming part of its Registration Statement on Form S-6
filed under the Securities Act of 1933 as Registration Number 33-90684.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with said Rule 24f-2 Notice.
Sincerely,
Kenneth D. Walma /s
