This Prospectus describes a flexible premium variable life insurance policy
('Policy') offered by Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America
('Company'). The Policy has been designed to be used in connection with estate
planning and other insurance needs of individuals.
Upon acceptance, premiums will be allocated to Allianz Life Variable
Account A ('Variable Account'), a separate account of the Company. The Variable
Account is divided into Sub- Accounts. Each Sub-Account invests in one Fund of
Franklin Valuemark Funds ('Trust'). The Trust is a series fund with twenty-three
Funds, seventeen of which are currently available in connection with the Policy:
the Money Market Fund, the High Income Fund, the Templeton Global Income
Securities Fund, The U.S. Government Securities Fund, the Growth and Income
Fund, the Income Securities Fund, the Mutual Shares Securities Fund, the Real
Estate Securities Fund, the Rising Dividends Fund, the Templeton Global Asset
Allocation Fund, the Utility Equity Fund, the Precious Metals Fund, the Small
Cap Fund, the Templeton Developing Markets Equity Fund, the Templeton Global
Growth Fund, the Templeton International Equity Fund, and the Templeton Pacific
Growth Fund. Prior to May 1, 1996, the Templeton Global Income Securities Fund
was known as the Global Income Fund. See 'Summary' and 'Tax Status
Diversification' for a discussion of owner control of the underlying investments
in a variable life policy. IN CALIFORNIA, THE MUTUAL SHARES SECURITIES FUND IS
NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL APPROVED BY THE CALIFORNIA INSURANCE DEPARTMENT. (CHECK WITH
YOUR AGENT REGARDING AVAILABILITY.)
The Owner of the Policy bears the complete investment risk for all
amounts allocated to the Variable Account. The Cash Value and under certain
circumstances, the Death Benefit of the Policy may increase or decrease
depending on the investment experience of the Variable Account.
IT MAY NOT BE ADVANTAGEOUS TO PURCHASE THE POLICY AS A REPLACEMENT FOR
ANOTHER TYPE OF LIFE INSURANCE. IT ALSO MAY NOT BE ADVANTAGEOUS TO PURCHASE
FLEXIBLE PREMIUM VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL INSURANCE
PROTECTION IF THE PURCHASER ALREADY OWNS ANOTHER FLEXIBLE PREMIUM LIFE INSURANCE
POLICY.
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.
PLEASE READ THIS PROSPECTUS CAREFULLY AND RETAIN IT FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
THIS PROSPECTUS MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY OR PRECEDED BY A CURRENT PROSPECTUS FOR
FRANKLIN VALUEMARK FUNDS.

<PAGE>
SUMMARY
THE POLICY
The Policy described in this Prospectus is a flexible premium variable life
insurance policy. The Policy is 'flexible' because unlike the fixed premium and
benefits of an ordinary whole life insurance policy, the frequency and amount of
premium payments can vary, the Owner can choose between death benefit options
and can increase or decrease the amount of insurance coverage, all within the
same policy of insurance.
The Policy is 'variable' because the Policy Account, when allocated to the
Variable Account, and under certain circumstances the death benefit under the
Policy, may increase or decrease depending upon the investment results of the
selected Eligible Investments or Portfolios within an Eligible Investment.
There are two death benefit options: Option A and Option B. If Death
Benefit Option A is in effect, the Death Benefit is the greater of the total
Face Amount at the beginning of the Policy Month when the death occurs or the
Policy Account on the date of death multiplied by the applicable factor. Under
this option, the amount of the Death Benefit is fixed, except when it is
determined by such a percentage. If Death Benefit Option B is in effect, the
Death Benefit is the greater of the total Face Amount at the beginning of the
Policy Month when the death occurs plus the Policy Account on the date of death
or the Policy Account on the date of death multiplied by the applicable factor.
Under this option, the amount of the Death Benefit is variable. The Owner may
change the death benefit option which was selected.
During the life of the Insured, the Owner can surrender the Policy for all
or part of its Net Cash Value.
The Owner may obtain a Policy Loan, using the Policy Cash Value as
security.
The Company makes available a number of riders that can be elected to meet
a variety of needs of the Insured. See 'Death Benefit' section for a description
of the Guaranteed Death Benefit Rider and the Accelerated Benefit Rider.
The Policy has been designed to comply with the definition of life
insurance contained in Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended ('Code'). However, the law in this regard is very complex and unclear.
While every attempt has been made to comply, there is the risk that the Internal
Revenue Service will not concur with the Company's interpretations of Section
7702 that were made in determining such compliance. Furthermore, under certain
circumstances, the Policy could be treated as a 'modified endowment contract'
under Section 7702A of the Code. For a further discussion, see 'Tax Status --
Tax Treatment of the Policy.'
THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT
The Variable Account is a separate account of the Company which was
established to hold the investments which underlie the Policy. The Variable
Account is divided into Sub-Accounts. Each of the Sub-Accounts is invested
solely in the shares of one of the Funds of the Trust. (See 'Franklin Valuemark
Funds.')
The Treasury Department has indicated that guidelines may be forthcoming
under which a variable life insurance policy will not be treated as life
insurance for tax purposes if the Owner of the Policy has excessive control over
the investments underlying the Policy. The issuance of such guidelines may
require the Company to impose limitations on the Owner's right to control the
investment. It is not known whether any such guidelines would have a retroactive
effect. (See 'Tax Status -- Diversification.')
DEDUCTIONS AND CHARGES
The Company makes certain deductions from premiums, the Policy Account and
from the assets of the Variable Account. These deductions are made for premium
taxes, for mortality and expense risks, for administrative expenses, for sales
charges and for providing life insurance protection. These deductions can be
summarized as follows:
Charge for Premium Taxes. This charge is for state and local premium
taxes and is deducted from each premium payment. The charge is equal to
2.5% of each premium payment and approximates the average expenses to the
Company associated with premium taxes. See 'Deductions and Charges --
Premium Taxes.'
Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. This risk charge is guaranteed not
to exceed, on an annual basis, 0.90% of the average daily net assets of
each Sub-Account and is deducted from the Sub-Account on each Valuation
Date. The current risk charge is equal, on an annual basis, to 0.60% of the
average daily net assets of each Sub-Account.
Administrative Charges. These charges are equal to:
a) on an annual basis, 0.15% of the average daily net assets of
each Sub-Account and is deducted from the Sub-Account on each
Valuation Date; plus
2
<PAGE>
b) $20 per Policy Month for the first Policy Year, and $9 per
Policy Month guaranteed thereafter. Currently, the charge is $5 per
Policy Month after the first Policy Year. These amounts are deducted
from the Policy Account on the Monthly Anniversary Date.
Charges for Additional Benefit Riders. The amount of the charge, if
any, each Policy Month for additional benefit riders is determined in
accordance with the rider and is shown on the Coverage Page of the Policy.
Insurance Risk Charge. On each Monthly Anniversary Date, the Company
deducts from the Policy Account the cost of insurance for the next Policy
Month. This charge provides death benefit protection for the following
Policy Month.
Surrender Charges. A Surrender Charge may be deducted in the event of
a full or partial surrender. The Surrender Charges contain: a Deferred
Administrative Expense and a Deferred Sales Load. The Deferred
Administrative Expense is $5.00 per $1,000 of Face Amount of Insurance for
the first three Policy Years, then grades linearly to zero over Policy
Years 4 through 13. The Deferred Sales Load is the lesser of 30% of the
Surrender Charge Premium, plus 5% of all premiums over the Surrender Charge
Premium (SCP), or the following percentage of SCP.
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
YEARS % OF SCP
------------------------------------- ---------------
1-8.................................. 65%

11................................... 44%
12................................... 33%
13................................... 22%
14................................... 11%
15+.................................. 0%
</TABLE>
The Surrender Charge Premium (SCP) is equal to the Annual Guaranteed
Coverage Premium for the base policy death benefit coverage of a standard
mortality risk. The SCP will vary with the issue age, sex, and smoking
classification of the Insured as well as the face amount of the base
policy.
For some higher issue ages, the Standard Non-Forfeiture Law of the
state where the Policy is delivered may limit Surrender Charges to amounts
less than those defined above. A Surrender Charge may also be deducted in
the event of a decrease in Face Amount.
Partial Surrender Fee. If the Owner surrenders only a portion of the
Net Cash Value at any time during the Insured's lifetime, there is an
administrative fee assessed which is currently equal to the lesser of $25
or 2% of the Partial Surrender Amount. A Partial Surrender that does not
exceed 10% of the Net Cash Value may be made once each Policy Year without
incurring a Surrender Charge or the Partial Surrender Fee.
Transfer Fee. The Owner may transfer values from one Sub-Account to
another or to or from the Fixed Account. The first 12 transfers in a Policy
Year are free. The fee for each additional transfer is the lesser of $25 or
2% of the amount transferred. Prescheduled automatic dollar cost averaging
transfers are not counted.
Other Expenses. The investment managers for the Trust are paid fees
for their services based upon each Fund's net assets.
RIGHT TO EXAMINE
The Policy may be cancelled by returning it with a written request for
cancellation to the Company at its ValueLife Service Center by the later of: (a)
the 20th day after the Owner receives it; or (b) the 45th day after the
application was signed. If this is done, the Company will refund any premium
paid. Prior to the Reallocation Date, premiums will be allocated to the Money
Market Sub-Account. On the Reallocation Date, the amount in the Money Market
Sub-Account will be allocated to the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account and to
the unloaned portion of the Fixed Account according to the allocation
percentages on the application. This transfer does not count in determining the
applicability of the transfer fee. The Reallocation Date is the date 30 days
after the Policy is released to an active status in the Company's processing
system.
CHANGE IN PLAN
The Owner may exchange the Policy for a similar one for another plan of
insurance. Any such change of plan is subject to the Company's approval and the
requirements and payment it may determine.

The Variable Account is divided into Sub-Accounts with the assets of each
Sub-Account invested in one of the Funds of Franklin Valuemark Funds.

GENERAL
There is no assurance that the investment objectives of any of the Funds
will be met. Owners bear the complete investment risk for Policy Account values
allocated to a Sub-Account.
Additional Funds and/or additional Eligible Investments may, from time to
time, be made available as investments to underlie the Policy. However, the
right to make such selections will be limited by the terms and conditions
imposed on such transactions by the Company.
Trust shares are issued and redeemed only in connection with variable
annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies issued through separate
accounts of the Company and its affiliates. The Trust does not foresee any
disadvantage to Owners arising out of the fact that the Trust may be made
available to separate accounts which are used in connection with both variable
annuity and variable life insurance products. Nevertheless, the Trust's Board of
Trustees intends to monitor events in order to identify any material
irreconcilable conflicts which may possibly arise and to determine what action,
if any, should be taken in response thereto. If such a conflict were to occur,
one of the separate accounts might withdraw its investment in the Trust. This
might force the Trust to sell portfolio securities at disadvantageous prices.
SUBSTITUTION OF SECURITIES
If the shares of any Fund of the Trust should no longer be available for
investment by the Variable Account or if, in the judgment of the Company, the
substitution of shares of any Fund for another would be in the best interests of
Policy Owners in view of the purpose of the Policy, the Company may substitute
shares of another Eligible Investment (or Fund within the Trust). No
substitution of securities in any Sub-Account may take place without prior
approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission and under such requirements
as it may impose.
PREMIUM PAYMENTS
GENERAL
The initial premium for a Policy is due before the Company will deliver the
Policy. Before the Company will deliver a Policy, the application and the
premium must be in good order as determined by the Company's administrative
rules.
PLANNED PERIODIC PREMIUMS
Planned periodic premiums may be paid annually, semi-annually, quarterly or
monthly. The Owner selects the planned periodic premium and payment interval at
the time of application. The Owner may change the amount and frequency of
premiums. The Company has the right to limit the amount of any increase. Each
premium after the initial premium must be at least $25 ($50 in Maryland). Except
in Maryland, the Company may increase this minimum limit 90 days after it sends
the Owner a written notice of such increase.
UNSCHEDULED PREMIUMS
Additional unscheduled premium payments can be made at any time while the
Policy is in force. The Company has the right to limit the number and amount of
such premium payments. In order to preserve the favorable tax status of the
Policy, the Company may limit the amount of premiums paid and may return any
premiums that exceed the limits under the tax laws of the United States.
5
<PAGE>
GRACE PERIOD
During the first 10 Policy Years (5 Policy Years in Massachusetts), a grace
period begins on the Monthly Anniversary Date when:
o the Net Cash Value is not large enough to cover the monthly deduction
made on that date; and
o adjusted premium payments are less than Accumulated Guaranteed Coverage
Premiums.
Adjusted premium payments as of a Monthly Anniversary Date equal:
o total premiums the Company has received on or before that date; minus
o any partial surrenders the Owner has made on or before that date, and
any Policy Debt.
Accumulated Guaranteed Coverage Premiums as of a Monthly Anniversary Date
equal:
o the Total Guaranteed Coverage Premium; multiplied by
o one plus the number of months the Policy has been in force as of that
Monthly Anniversary Date.
If the same Total Guaranteed Coverage Premium has not been in effect every
month during this period, Accumulated Guaranteed Coverage Premiums will be based
on the different premiums that were in effect and the number of months for which
each applied.
After the first 10 Policy Years (5 Policy Years in Massachusetts), a grace
period begins on the Monthly Anniversary Date when the Net Cash Value is not
large enough to cover the monthly deduction made on that date.
The Company will continue the Policy in effect for 61 days after a grace
period begins. If the Insured dies during a grace period, the Company will
deduct the premium that would have been required to keep the Policy from
terminating at the end of the grace period, as described below, from the amount
it would otherwise pay.
The Policy will terminate without value at the end of a grace period unless
the Company receives a premium large enough to keep the Policy from terminating
at the end of that grace period, as described below, before the grace period
ends. This premium must also meet the minimum premium requirements.
During the first 10 Policy Years (5 Policy Years in Massachusetts), the
premium required to keep the Policy from terminating at the end of a grace
period equals the lesser of:
o three monthly deductions; or
o Accumulated Guaranteed Coverage Premiums for the Monthly Anniversary
Date when the grace period began minus adjusted premium payments as of
that date.
After the first 10 Policy Years (5 Policy Years in Massachusetts), the
premium required to keep the Policy from terminating at the end of a grace
period equals three monthly deductions.
The Company will notify the Owner in writing at least 31 days before a
grace period ends. The notice will show how much must be paid to keep the Policy
from terminating at the end of that grace period. The Company will send the
notice to the Owner's last known address on file.
REINSTATEMENT
The Policy may be reinstated (coverage restored) anytime within five years
after it has terminated at the end of a grace period. To reinstate the Policy
the Owner must:
o submit an application for reinstatement;
o submit proof satisfactory to the Company that the Insured is still
insurable at the risk classification that applies for the latest Face
Amount portion then in effect;
o pay or agree to reinstatement of any Policy Debt; and
o pay the premium required to reinstate the Policy.
The premium required to reinstate the Policy equals the total of the
following amounts:
o the amounts that would have been required for the Policy to continue in
force without entering a grace period for each month during the grace
period at the end of which it terminated; and
o the amount that will be required for the Policy to continue in force
without entering a grace period for the next 3 months after the
reinstatement date.
The reinstatement date will be the Monthly Anniversary Date on or following
the day the Company approves the application for reinstatement. The Policy
Account on the reinstatement date will be equal to the Policy Account on the
Monthly Anniversary Date when the grace period
6
<PAGE>
ended. The Surrender Charge on the reinstatement date will be equal to the
Surrender Charge on the Monthly Anniversary Date when the grace period ended.
The Policy may not be reinstated after:
o it has been surrendered for its Net Cash Value; or
o the Insured's Death; or
o the Maturity Date.
ALLOCATION OF PREMIUM
The premium is allocated to the Fixed Account or one or more of the
Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account as selected by the Owner. IN CALIFORNIA,
THE MUTUAL SHARES SECURITIES FUND IS NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL APPROVED BY THE
CALIFORNIA INSURANCE DEPARTMENT. (CHECK WITH YOUR AGENT REGARDING AVAILABILITY.)
Prior to the Reallocation Date, the initial premium is allocated to the Money
Market Sub-Account.
On the Reallocation Date, the Policy Account will be allocated to one or
more of the Sub-Accounts in accordance with the premium allocation on record.
This allocation is not deemed to be a transfer subject to the transfer fee
provision (see 'Transfer Fee'). The Company reserves the right to limit the
number of investment options (17 Franklin Funds and the Fixed Account) that an
Owner may invest in at any one time. Currently, the Owner may only be invested
in a maximum of seven investment options at any one time throughout the life of
the Policy.
DOLLAR COST AVERAGING
Dollar Cost Averaging is a program which, if elected, enables an Owner to
systematically allocate specified dollar amounts from the Money Market
Sub-Account or The U.S. Government Securities Sub-Account to the Policy's other
Sub-Accounts (maximum of five) at regular intervals. By allocating on a
regularly scheduled basis, as opposed to allocating the total amount at one
particular time, an Owner may be less susceptible to the impact of market
fluctuations.
Dollar Cost Averaging may be selected for 12 to 36 months. The minimum
amount per period to allocate is $1,000. All dollar cost averaging transfers
will be made effective the tenth of the month (or the next Valuation Date if the
tenth of the month is not a Valuation Date). Election into this program may
occur at any time by properly completing the Dollar Cost Averaging election
form, returning it to the Company by the first of the month, to be effective
that month, and insuring that sufficient value is in either the Money Market
Sub-Account or The U.S. Government Securities Sub-Account. When utilizing the
Dollar Cost Averaging program, an Owner must be invested in either the Money
Market Sub-Account or The U.S. Government Securities Sub-Account and may be
invested in a maximum of five of the other Sub-Accounts.
Dollar Cost Averaging will terminate when any of the following occurs: (1)
the number of designated transfers has been completed; (2) the value of the
Money Market Sub-Account or The U.S. Government Securities Sub-Account (as
applicable) is insufficient to complete the next transfer; (3) the Owner
requests termination in writing and such writing is received by the first of the
month in order to cancel the transfer scheduled to take effect that month; or
(4) the Policy is terminated. There is no current charge for Dollar Cost
Averaging but the Company reserves the right to charge for this program. The
Company does not intend to profit from any such charge. In the event there are
additional transfers, the transfer fee may be charged.
DEDUCTIONS AND CHARGES
Deductions under the Policy will be made as follows:
MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE
The Company deducts a Mortality and Expense Risk Charge from each
Sub-Account on each Valuation Date. This risk charge is guaranteed not to
exceed, on an annual basis, 0.90% of the average daily net assets of the
Sub-Account. The current risk charge is equal, on an annual basis, to 0.60% of
the average daily net assets of each Sub-Account. This risk charge compensates
the Company for assuming the mortality and expense risks under the Policy. The
mortality risk assumed by the Company is that the Insureds, as a group, may not
live as long as expected. The expense risk assumed by the Company is that actual
expenses may be greater than those assumed. The Company is responsible for all
administration of the Policy and the Variable Account. The Company expects to
profit from this charge.
ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGES
The Company deducts Administrative Charges from each Sub-Account on each
Valuation Date and from the Policy Account on each
7
<PAGE>
Monthly Anniversary Date. The asset-based charge is equal, on an annual
basis, to 0.15% of the average daily net assets of the Sub-Account. The Policy
charge is equal to $20 per Policy Month for the first Policy Year and $9 per
Policy Month guaranteed thereafter. Currently, the charge is $5 per Policy Month
after the first Policy Year. This charge reimburses the Company for expenses
incurred in the administration of the Policies and the Variable Account. Such
expenses include but are not limited to: confirmations, annual reports and
account statements, maintenance of Policy records, maintenance of Variable
Account records, administrative personnel costs, mailing costs, data processing
costs, legal fees, accounting fees, filing fees, the costs of other services
necessary for Policy Owner servicing and all accounting, valuation, regulatory
and updating requirements. The Company will not profit from the charges and they
will be reduced to the extent that the amount of the charges is in excess of
that necessary to reimburse the Company for its administrative expenses. Should
the guaranteed charges prove to be insufficient, the Company will not increase
the charges above such guaranteed levels and will incur the loss.
INSURANCE RISK CHARGES
The insurance risk charge for each Policy Month equals the total of the
insurance risk charges for that month for each Face Amount portion then in
effect. To determine the insurance risk charge for a Face Amount portion for a
Policy Month the Company multiplies:
o the Insurance Risk Amount for the Face Amount portion for that month;
by
o the cost of insurance rate that applies to the Face Amount portion for
that month.
The Insurance Risk Amount for a Face Amount portion for a Policy Month
equals the excess of:
o the Death Benefit associated with that Face Amount portion; over
o the amount of the beginning Policy Account, before the monthly
deduction for the month is subtracted, applied to reduce the risk
amount for that Face Amount portion.
If Death Benefit Option B is in effect, the beginning Policy Account is
attributed to the Initial Face Amount in determining the Death Benefit
associated with each Face Amount portion.
The amount of the Death Benefit based on the beginning Policy Account may
exceed the sum of the Face Amount portions and any beginning Policy Account
attributed to the Initial Face Amount. The excess will be attributed to the most
recent Face Amount portion then in effect in determining the Death Benefit
associated with each Face Amount portion.
The beginning Policy Account is applied, first, to reduce the risk amount
for the Initial Face Amount. Any beginning Policy Account in excess of the
Initial Face Amount is then applied to reduce the risk amount for the first Face
Amount increase portion in an amount up to that Face Amount portion. Remainders
are successively applied to reduce the risk amount for the following Face Amount
increase portions in the order of the increases until the entire Policy Account
has been applied.
The cost of insurance rate for a Face Amount portion for a Policy Month
equals the sum of:
o the standard cost of insurance rate for that month from the table of
standard cost of insurance rates declared by the Company's Board of
Directors (the declared standard cost of insurance rate); and
o an additional rate for any extra mortality risk classification that
applies for the Face Amount portion as shown on the Coverage Page of
the Policy, or the supplement to the Coverage Page if the Face Amount
has been changed.
The additional rate for an extra mortality risk classification for any
Policy Month equals the amount of extra mortality that the risk classification
represents for that month.
The total cost of insurance rate for a Policy Month will be uniform for all
Face Amount portions that:
o are in the same Face Amount band, sex, and risk classification;
o take effect when the Insureds are the same age; and
o have been in force the same length of time.
The Company may change the declared cost of insurance rates from time to
time based on its expectations as to future cost elements such as: investment
earnings, mortality, persistency, expenses and taxes. Any change
8
<PAGE>
the Company makes will apply to all Face Amount portions in the same risk
classification.
The declared standard cost of insurance rates for each Policy Month will
not be more than the amount shown in the table contained in the Policy. The
table is based on the Insured's age at his or her last birthday at the beginning
of each year (attained age), the Insured's sex and whether or not the Insured
has qualified for the non-smoker classification. For the Initial Face Amount,
the Insured's attained age is determined at the beginning of each Policy Year.
For each Face Amount increase, attained age is determined at the beginning of
each Policy Year measured from the date the increase took effect.
Since the mortality tables used with the Policy distinguish between males
and females, the cost of insurance and the benefits payable will differ between
males and females of the same age. Employers, employee plans and employee
organizations should seek legal advice to determine whether the Civil Rights Act
of 1964, Title VII, or other applicable law prohibits the use of sex distinct
mortality tables. The Company will offer the Policy based upon unisex mortality
tables where required.
CHARGES FOR ADDITIONAL BENEFIT RIDERS
The amount of the charge, if any, each Policy Month for additional benefit
riders is determined in accordance with the rider and is shown on the Coverage
Page of the Policy.
SURRENDER CHARGES
A Surrender Charge may be deducted in the event of a full or partial
surrender. The Surrender Charge consists of two parts: a Deferred Administrative
Expense and a Deferred Sales Load. The Deferred Administrative Expense is $5.00
per $1,000 of Face Amount of Insurance for the first three Policy Years, then
grades linearly to zero over Policy Years 4 through 13. The Deferred Sales Load
is the lesser of 30% of the Surrender Charge Premium, plus 5% of all premiums
over the Surrender Charge Premium (SCP), or the following percentage of SCP.
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
YEARS % OF SCP
------------------------------------- -------------
1-8.................................. 65%
9................................... 60%
10................................... 55%
11................................... 44%
12................................... 33%
13................................... 22%
14................................... 11%
15+.................................. 0%
</TABLE>
The Surrender Charge Premium (SCP) is equal to the Annual Guaranteed
Coverage Premium for the base policy death benefit coverage of a standard
mortality risk. The SCP will vary with the issue age, sex, and smoking
classification of the Insured as well as the face amount of the base policy.
For some higher issue ages, the Standard Non-Forfeiture Law of the state
where the Policy is delivered may limit Surrender Charges to amounts less than
those defined above.
The Surrender Charge may also be deducted in the event of a decrease in
Face Amount.
The Surrender Charge at any time during the first Policy Year equals the
Surrender Charge at the end of the year. The Surrender Charge during any
subsequent Policy Year will be calculated based on end of year Surrender Charges
and the portion of the year that has been completed.
When the Policy terminates, the Policy Account may be less than the
Surrender Charge. If so, the Owner will not have to pay the difference. If the
Policy is reinstated, the Surrender Charge will also be reinstated.
PARTIAL SURRENDER FEE
If the Owner surrenders only a portion of the Net Cash Value at any time
during the Insured's lifetime, there is an administrative fee assessed which is
currently equal to the lesser of $25 or 2% of the Partial Surrender Amount. (See
'Policy Account, Cash Value, Net Cash Value, Transfer Rights and Surrenders --
Partial Surrenders.') A Partial Surrender that does not exceed 10% of the Net
Cash Value may be made once each Policy Year without incurring a Surrender
Charge or the Partial Surrender Fee.
PREMIUM TAXES
There is a charge for state and local premium taxes and it is deducted from
each premium payment. The charge is equal to 2.5% of each premium payment and
approximates the average expenses to the Company associated with premium taxes.
Premium taxes currently imposed on the Policies range from 2% to 3.5% of
9
<PAGE>
premium payments. It is therefore possible that an Owner may be assessed a
charge for premium taxes which is greater than the applicable charge in his or
her state.
TRANSFER FEE
The Owner may transfer values from one Sub-Account to another or to or from
the Fixed Account. The first 12 transfers in a Policy Year are free. The fee for
each additional transfer is currently the lesser of $25 or 2% of the amount
transferred. Prescheduled automatic dollar cost averaging transfers are not
counted nor is the transfer of the initial premium at the end of the free look
period.
OTHER EXPENSES
The Managers for the Trust are paid fees for their services based upon each
Fund's net assets which are described in the accompanying Trust prospectus.
INCOME TAX CHARGE
The Company does not currently assess any charge for income taxes incurred
by the Company as a result of the operation of the Sub-Accounts of the Variable
Account. The Company reserves the right to assess a charge for such taxes
against the Sub-Accounts if the Company determines that such taxes will be
incurred.
DEATH BENEFIT
DEATH BENEFIT
The amount of the Death Benefit depends on the total Face Amount, the
Policy Account on the date of the Insured's death and the Death Benefit option
(Option A or Option B) in effect at that time.
The total Face Amount is the sum of all of the Face Amount portions. The
Initial Face Amount and each Face Amount increase still in effect are Face
Amount portions. The Initial Face Amount and the Death Benefit option in effect
on the Issue Date are shown on the Coverage Page of the Policy.
Option A. The amount of the Death Benefit under Option A is the greater of:
o the total Face Amount at the beginning of the Policy Month when the
death occurs; or
o the Policy Account on the date of death multiplied by the applicable
factor from the Table of Death Benefit Factors contained in the Policy.
Option B. The amount of the Death Benefit under Option B is the greater of:
10
<PAGE>
o the total Face Amount at the beginning of the Policy Month when the
death occurs plus the Policy Account on the date of death; or
o the Policy Account on the date of death multiplied by the applicable
factor from the Table of Death Benefit Factors.
CHANGE IN DEATH BENEFIT
The Owner may change the Death Benefit option after the Policy has been in
force for at least one year, subject to the following requirements:
o the Owner must request the change in writing;
o once the Death Benefit option has been changed, it cannot be changed
again for the next three years;
o if Death Benefit Option A is to be changed to Option B, the Owner must
submit proof satisfactory to the Company that the Insured is still
insurable at the risk classification that applies for the Initial Face
Amount as shown on the Coverage Page of the Policy. The Face Amount
will not change; and
o if Death Benefit Option B is changed to Option A, the Face Amount will
be increased by an amount equal to the Policy Account on the date of
the change. The risk classification for the last Face Amount portion to
go into effect which is still in force will apply to the Face Amount
increase. This increase will not result in any increase in premiums,
expense charges or Surrender Charges.
Any change in a Death Benefit option will take effect on the Monthly
Anniversary Date on or following the date the Company approves the request for
the change.
CHANGE IN FACE AMOUNT
The Owner may change the Face Amount of the Policy on any Monthly
Anniversary Date after the Policy has been in force at least one year, subject
to the following requirements. Once the Face Amount has been changed, it cannot
be changed again for the next twelve months.
Face Amount Increase. To increase the Face Amount the Owner must:
o submit an application for the increase;
o submit proof satisfactory to the Company that the Insured is an
insurable risk; and
o pay any additional premium which is required.
The Face Amount can only be increased before the Insured reaches age 81.
Each Face Amount increase must be at least as large as the Minimum Face Amount
Increase (currently $25,000). A Face Amount increase will take effect on the
Monthly Anniversary Date on or following the day the Company approves the
application for the increase.
The risk classification that applies for any Face Amount increase may be
different from the risk classification that applies for the Initial Face Amount.
The following changes will be made to reflect the increase:
o the Guaranteed Coverage Premium will be increased.
o the Monthly Administrative Charge will increase to $20 per month for
the twelve months following the increase.
o additional Surrender Charges equal to the Face Amount increase (in
$1,000's) multiplied by the Surrender Charge Factors will apply for 13
years following the increase.
The Company will furnish a supplement to the Coverage Page of the Policy
that shows:
o the risk classification and the amount of the increase; and
o the values for the changes described above.
Face Amount Decrease. The Owner must request in writing any decrease in the
Face Amount. The decrease will take effect on the later of:
o the Monthly Anniversary Date on or following the day the Company
receives the Owner's request for the decrease; or
o the Monthly Anniversary Date one year after the last change in Face
Amount was made.
A Face Amount decrease will be used to reduce any previous Face Amount
increases which are then in effect starting with the latest increase and
continuing in the reverse order in which the increases were made. If any portion
of the decrease is left after all Face Amount increases have been reduced, it
will be used to reduce the Initial Face Amount. The Company will not permit a
Face Amount decrease that would reduce the
11
<PAGE>
Initial Face Amount below the Minimum Face Amount, currently $100,000.
The Guaranteed Coverage Premium will be reduced to reflect the Face Amount
decrease. The new Guaranteed Coverage Premium will be shown on a supplement to
the Coverage Page of the Policy.
The Company will deduct a charge from the Policy Account when the Face
Amount is decreased. The maximum charge the Company will deduct each time the
Face Amount is decreased is the lesser of:
o the total of the current Surrender Charge for the amount of each Face
Amount portion reduced; or
o the Policy Account when the decrease is made.
The charge will be deducted for each Face Amount portion reduced, starting
with the charge for the first Face Amount portion reduced, and continuing in the
same order in which the reductions are made until the charge is completely
deducted.
Future Surrender Charges will be reduced proportionately for any charges
deducted. After the Face Amount is decreased, the Surrender Charges for each
Face Amount portion for which a charge is deducted will be equal to the
Surrender Charges shown for that Face Amount portion on the Coverage Page of the
Policy, or in the supplement to the Coverage Page, multiplied by the ratio of:
o the amount of the Surrender Charge in effect for the Face Amount
portion at the time the charge is deducted minus the amount of the
charge deducted for the Face Amount portion; divided by
o the amount of the Surrender Charge in effect for the Face Amount
portion at the time the charge is deducted.
GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT RIDER
The Owner can elect a Guaranteed Death Benefit Rider. This Rider provides
that the Policy will remain in force to attained age 95 for Death Benefit Option
A Policies and to attained age 80 for Death Benefit Option B Policies,
regardless of the performance of the underlying Fund, so long as the minimum
required premium is paid. The premium required is significantly higher than the
minimum premium required to issue the Policy and to keep it in force. There is
an additional charge for this benefit, currently $0.01 per $1000 of Face Amount
per Policy Month. A Policy cannot have both the Guaranteed Death Benefit Rider
and any of the following riders:
o Insured Term Rider
o Spouse Term Rider
ACCELERATED BENEFIT RIDER
The Owner can elect the Accelerated Benefit Rider. This rider provides that
the Owner may elect to receive some of the death benefit proceeds of the Policy
if the Insured is suffering from a terminal illness, as defined in the rider.
Death Benefits, Cash Values, if any, and Loan Values, if any, will be reduced if
a benefit is paid pursuant to this rider.
POLICY ACCOUNT, CASH VALUE, NET CASH VALUE, TRANSFER RIGHTS AND SURRENDERS
POLICY ACCOUNT
On the Issue Date, the beginning Policy Account equals:
o the first premium paid less the charge for premium taxes, the initial
Insurance Risk Charge and the initial charge for any additional benefit
riders; minus
o the monthly deduction for the first Policy Month.
After the Issue Date the Policy Account equals the sum of the amounts in
the Fixed Account and in the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account under the
Policy.
METHOD OF DETERMINING SUB-ACCOUNT VALUES
Sub-Account values will fluctuate in accordance with the investment
experience of the applicable underlying Fund held within the Sub-Account. In
order to determine these Sub-Account values, the Company utilizes Sub-Account
valuation units. The value of a unit applicable during any Valuation Period is
determined at the end of that Period.
When the first shares of the Funds were purchased for the Sub-Accounts,
each Sub-Account valuation unit was valued at $10. The value of a unit within
each Sub-Account on any Valuation Date thereafter is determined by dividing (a)
by (b), where:
(a) is equal to:
1. the total value of the net assets in the Sub-Account; minus
2. the daily Mortality and Expense Risk Charge; minus
12
<PAGE>
3. the daily charge for the asset-based Administrative Charge; plus or
minus
4. a charge or credit for any tax provision established for the
Sub-Account.
and (b) is the total number of units applicable to that Sub-Account at the
end of the Valuation Period.
A valuation unit may increase or decrease in value from Valuation Date to
Valuation Date.
CASH VALUE, NET CASH VALUE
The Cash Value equals:
o the Policy Account; minus
o the Surrender Charges.
See 'Deductions and Charges' regarding a description of the Surrender
Charges.
The Net Cash Value equals:
o the Cash Value; minus
o any Policy Debt.
During the Insured's life the Owner may:
o take loans based on the Cash Value;
o make Partial Surrenders; or
o surrender the Policy for its Net Cash Value.
TRANSFER RIGHTS
At the Owner's request the Company will transfer amounts from the value in
any Sub-Account of the Variable Account to one or more of the other Sub-Accounts
of the Variable Account or to the Fixed Account. The minimum amount that can be
transferred from the value in a Sub-Account of the Variable Account on any date
is the lesser of the Minimum Transfer Amount (currently $500) or the value in
that Sub-Account on that date. The Owner may transfer on any Policy Anniversary
an amount from the unloaned value in the Fixed Account to one or more
Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account. However, transfers will be made only if:
o the Company receives such request at least 30 days before that Policy
Anniversary; and
o the amount requested is not more than the greater of 25% of the
unloaned value in the Fixed Account on that Anniversary or the Minimum
Transfer Amount.
In no event will the Company transfer more than such unloaned value. The
minimum amount that the Company will transfer from the value in the Fixed
Account on any Policy Anniversary is the lesser of the Minimum Transfer Amount,
currently $500, or the unloaned value in the Fixed Account on that date.
Twelve transfers may be made in a Policy Year without the imposition of a
charge. The Company may charge a transfer fee for additional transfers in a
Policy Year. The current transfer fee is the lesser of $25 or 2% of the amount
transferred. The Owner may tell the Company how much of such a transfer fee is
to come from the unloaned value in the Fixed Account and from the values in each
of the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account. If the Owner does not tell the
Company, it will make such deduction based on the proportions that the unloaned
values in the Fixed Account and the value in the Sub-Accounts of the Variable
Account bear to the total unloaned value in the Policy Account.
Neither the Variable Account nor the Trust is designed for professional
market timing organizations, other entities, or individuals using programmed,
large, or frequent transfers. A pattern of exchanges that coincides with a
'market timing' strategy may be disruptive to the Fund and may be refused.
Accounts under common ownership or control may be aggregated for purposes of
transfer limits. In coordination with the Trust, the Company reserves the right
to restrict the transfer privilege or reject any specific premium allocation
request for any person whose transactions seem to follow a timing pattern.
An Owner may elect to make transfers by telephone. To elect this option the
Owner must do so in writing to the Company. If there are Joint Owners, unless
the Company is informed to the contrary, instructions will be accepted from
either one of the Joint Owners. The Company will use reasonable procedures to
confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine. If it does not,
the Company may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent
instructions. The Company tape records all telephone instructions.
PARTIAL SURRENDERS
The Owner may make a partial surrender from the Net Cash Value at any time
during the Insured's life and before the Policy has terminated. The Minimum
Partial Surrender Amount is currently $500. The Partial Surrender may not exceed
the Net Cash Value, less $300.
The Company will assess a Partial Surrender Fee when a partial surrender is
made. The maximum Partial Surrender Fee the Company will make is $50 and the
current charge is the lesser of
13
<PAGE>
2% of the Partial Surrender Amount or $25. In addition, a Surrender Charge may
be assessed on the amount withdrawn. See 'Surrender Charges' above. A Partial
Surrender that does not exceed 10% of the Net Cash Value may be made once each
Policy Year without incurring a Surrender Charge or the Partial Surrender Fee.
When a partial surrender is made, the amount of the partial surrender, the
Partial Surrender Fee and the Surrender Charge, if any, will be deducted from
the Policy Account. The Owner elects how much of each partial surrender, Partial
Surrender Fee and Surrender Charge is to come from the unloaned value in the
Fixed Account and from values in each of the Sub-Accounts of the Variable
Account. If the Owner does not so elect, or if the Company cannot make the
Surrender on the basis of the Owner's direction or those allocation percentages,
the Company will make it based on the proportions that the unloaned value in the
Fixed Account and unloaned values in the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account
bear to the total unloaned value in the Policy Account.
The Face Amount will be reduced if Death Benefit Option A is in effect when
a partial surrender is made. Such a reduction will be equal to the amount of the
partial surrender minus the excess, if any, of:
o the Death Benefit at the time the partial surrender is made; over
o the Face Amount at the time the partial surrender is made.
However, if the amount of the partial surrender is less than or equal to
the excess described above, the Face Amount will not be reduced.
Any Face Amount reduction will be used first to reduce any Face Amount
increases then in effect starting with the latest increase and continuing in the
reverse order in which the increases were made. If any of the reduction is left
after all Face Amount increases have been reduced, it will be used to reduce the
Initial Face Amount.
The Company will not permit a partial surrender that would reduce the Face
Amount below the minimum Face Amount (currently $100,000). The Company may limit
the number of partial surrenders in a Policy Year, but this limit will not be
less than one.
FULL SURRENDERS
The Owner may completely surrender the Policy and receive the Net Cash
Value anytime during the Insured's life and before the Policy has terminated.
The full surrender will take effect on the later of:
o the date the Company receives the Owner's written request for the
surrender; or
o the date the Owner requests, in writing, for the surrender to take
effect.
The Policy and all coverage under it will terminate at 12:01 a.m. at the
Company's ValueLife Service Center on the date the surrender takes effect.
Partial and full surrenders may have federal tax consequences (see 'Tax
Status').
LOAN PROVISIONS
POLICY LOANS
The Company will loan money to the Owner at the loan interest rate the
Company establishes for each Policy Year during which the loan is outstanding.
The request by the Owner for a loan must be in writing.
The Policy Loan will be divided into two parts, the Preferred Loan and the
Non-Preferred Loan. A Preferred Loan may be made not more than once per Policy
Year, beginning the later of the tenth Policy Anniversary or the anniversary
following the Insured's 60th birthday. No more than 10% of the Cash Value of the
Policy at the time of the loan may be made as a Preferred Loan. Any portion of a
loan that is not a Preferred Loan is a Non-Preferred Loan.
The Policy Loan must be allocated to the Fixed Account. If the Policy Loan
requested exceeds the loan limit, the Owner may also request a transfer of
values from the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account to the Fixed Account, if
such values are available. These values will be determined at the time of the
request for transfer. If the Owner does not indicate the proportions of the
Sub-Accounts to be transferred, the Company will make the transfers based on the
proportions that the values in the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account bear to
the total unloaned value in the Policy Account.
Policy loans may have federal tax consequences (see 'Tax Status').
14
<PAGE>
LOAN INTEREST CHARGED
There may be a lower declared loan interest rate each year for the
Preferred Loan than for the Non-Preferred Loan. The Company will determine the
loan interest rates for a Policy Year at least 60 days before the Policy Year
begins. The maximum annual loan interest rates the Company will use for
Preferred and Non-Preferred Loans for a Policy (the maximum allowable rate) are
the greater of:
o the guaranteed interest rate for the Fixed Account shown on the
Coverage Page of the Policy for a Policy Year (currently 3.5% for all
Policy Years) plus 1%; or
o Moody's Corporate Bond Yield Average, Monthly Average Corporates as
published by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., for the calendar month
ending two months before the date on which the loan interest rate is
determined.
If Moody's Corporate Bond Yield Average, Monthly Average Corporates is no
longer published on a timely basis, the Company will use a substantially similar
average approved by the insurance department in the state where the Policy was
delivered to determine the maximum allowable rate.
If the maximum allowable rate for a Policy is at least 1/2% lower than the
loan interest rate in effect for the previous Policy Year, the Company will
decrease the loan interest rate to not more than the maximum allowable rate. If
the maximum allowable rate for a Policy Year is at least 1/2% higher than either
loan interest rate in effect for the previous Policy Year, the Company may
increase either loan interest rate to not more than the maximum allowable rate.
The Company will not use a loan interest rate for any Policy Year that exceeds
15%. The Company will notify the Owner as to the Preferred Loan and
Non-Preferred Loan interest rates that apply at the time a new loan is made or
when any Policy Debt is reinstated. If either loan interest rate that applies to
an existing Policy Loan is increased, the Company will notify the Owner in
writing at least 30 days before the new rate takes effect.
When a loan is made, interest for the rest of the current Policy Year must
be paid in advance. If interest is not paid when due, it will be added to the
Policy Debt and allocated to the Fixed Account. The accumulation of Preferred
Loans, together with interest on such loans, is the Preferred Debt. The
accumulation of Non-Preferred Loans, together with interest on such loans, is
the Non-Preferred Debt. Total Policy Debt is the sum of the Preferred Debt and
the Non-Preferred Debt, and equals the total outstanding loan with interest. If
the Total Policy Debt (including interest in advance) exceeds the Fixed Account,
the Company will transfer values from the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account
to the Fixed Account if such values are available, based on the proportions that
the values in the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account bear to the total value
of the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account. The unpaid interest will then be
treated as part of the Policy Debt and will bear interest at the loan rates.
LOAN LIMIT
A loan may be for any amount which does not exceed the loan limit.
The loan limit equals:
o the Cash Value on the date the loan is made; minus
o interest for the rest of the current Policy Year; minus
o any existing Policy Debt.
SECURITY
The Policy will be the only security for the loan.
RESTRICTIONS ON MAKING LOANS
Loans will not be available during a grace period or after the Insured
dies.
REPAYING POLICY DEBT
The Policy Debt, or any part, may be repaid at any time as long as the
Policy is in force. The Company has the right to not accept partial loan
repayments for amounts less than $50. Any Policy Debt outstanding will be
deducted before any benefit proceeds are paid or applied under a payment option.
Repayments will be applied first to the Non-Preferred Debt Account, and
then to the Preferred Debt Account, unless the Owner specifies differently.
Repayments will be allocated to the Fixed Account and to the Sub-Accounts
of the Variable Account based on the premium allocation schedule then in effect,
unless a different allocation is requested.
When there is Policy Debt outstanding, any payments received will be
applied first as repayment of debt, rather than as premium, unless the Company
is instructed otherwise.
15
<PAGE>
LIMIT ON POLICY DEBT
Total Policy Debt must not exceed the Cash Value. If Total Policy Debt,
adjusted for any unearned loan interest, ever equals or exceeds the Cash Value,
the Company can terminate the Policy. The Policy will terminate 61 days after
the Company has mailed a written notice to the Owner and to anyone who is
relying on the Policy as collateral security as shown on the Company's records.
A notice will be sent to the last known address the Company has on file.
OWNERSHIP
The Owner, as of the Issue Date, is named on the Coverage Page of the
Policy. The Owner may be the Insured or someone other than the Insured. If
another person has become the Owner after the Issue Date, the Company will have
a record of such change.
During the Insured's life, the Owner may exercise any rights and receive
all benefits described in the Policy.
While the Insured is alive, the Owner may exercise all the rights of the
Policy subject to the rights of:
1. any assignee under an assignment filed with the ValueLife Service
Center; and
2. any irrevocably named Beneficiary.
TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP
The Owner may transfer ownership of the Policy. The Company will not be
responsible for any payment it makes or other action the Company takes before a
copy of the written transfer is received by it. The Company is not responsible
for the validity of the transfer. The Company may require the Policy to record
the transfer.
The new Owner takes the Policy subject to all Policy Debt.
ASSIGNMENT
The Owner may assign the Policy. A copy of any assignment must be filed
with the ValueLife Service Center. The Company is not responsible for the
validity of any assignment. If the Owner assigns the Policy, the Owner's rights
and those of any revocably-named person will be subject to the assignment. An
assignment will not affect any payments the Company may make or actions it may
take before such assignment has been recorded at the Company's ValueLife Service
Center.
16
<PAGE>
BENEFICIARY PROVISIONS
The Company will pay any Death Benefit proceeds to the Primary Beneficiary.
Contingent Beneficiaries may be named to receive the proceeds if the Primary
Beneficiary dies before the Insured. If no named Beneficiary is living when the
Insured dies, the proceeds will be paid to the Owner or the Owner's estate.
Primary and Contingent Beneficiaries are as named in the application,
unless changed by the Owner. The Beneficiaries may be changed by the Owner at
any time during the Insured's life. To change a Beneficiary, a written request
must be made to the Company. The Company may require the Policy to record the
change. The request will take effect when signed, subject to any action the
Company takes before receiving it.
One or more irrevocable Beneficiaries may be named. An irrevocable
Beneficiary is one whose rights cannot be reduced or destroyed without his or
her consent.
If a Beneficiary is a minor, the Company will make payment to the guardian
of his or her estate. The Company may require proof of age of any Beneficiary.
Proceeds payable to a Beneficiary will be free from the claims of
creditors, to the extent allowed by law.
DELAY OF PAYMENTS
The Company will generally pay Policy proceeds within seven business days
of receipt of a completed request for such payment. The Company reserves the
right to suspend or postpone any type of payment from the Variable Account for
any period when:
a. the New York Stock Exchange is closed (other than customary weekend
and holiday closings);
b. trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted;
c. an emergency exists as a result of which disposal of securities
held in the Variable Account is not reasonably practicable or it is not
reasonably practicable to determine the value of the Variable Account's net
assets; or
d. the Securities and Exchange Commission, by order, so permits delay
for the protection of Owners.
The applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission will govern
as to whether the conditions described in (b) and (c) exist.
The insurance laws of some states require that the Company reserve the
right to defer making payment of Cash Surrender Values and loans from the Fixed
Account for up to six months from the date of request. In such states the
Company provides a Policy reserving this right.

TAX STATUS
NOTE: The following description is based upon the Company's understanding
of current federal income tax law applicable to life insurance in general. The
Company cannot predict the probability that any changes in such laws will be
made. Purchasers are cautioned to seek competent tax advice regarding the
possibility of such changes. Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the 'Code'), defines the term 'life insurance contract' for purposes
of the Code. The Company believes that the Policies to be issued will qualify as
'life insurance contracts' under Section 7702. The Company does not guarantee
the tax status of the Policies. Purchasers bear the complete risk that the
Policies may not be treated as 'life insurance' under federal income tax laws.
Purchasers should consult their own tax advisers. It should be further
understood that the following discussion is not exhaustive and that special
rules not described in this Prospectus may be applicable in certain situations.
INTRODUCTION
The discussion contained herein is general in nature and is not intended as
tax advice. Each person concerned should consult a competent tax adviser. No
attempt is made to consider any applicable state or other tax laws. Moreover,
the discussion herein is based upon the Company's understanding of current
federal income tax laws as they are currently interpreted. No representation is
made regarding the likelihood of continuation of those current federal income
tax laws or of the current interpretations by the Internal Revenue Service.
The Company is taxed as a life insurance company under the Code. For
federal income tax purposes, the Variable Account is not a separate entity from
the Company and its operations form a part of the Company.
DIVERSIFICATION
Section 817(h) of the Code imposes certain diversification standards on the
underlying assets of variable life insurance policies. The Code provides that a
variable life insurance policy will not be treated as life insurance for any
period (and any subsequent period) for which the investments are not, in
accordance with regulations prescribed by the United States Treasury Department
('Treasury Department'), adequately diversified. Disqualification of the Policy
as a life insurance contract would result in the imposition of federal income
tax on the Owner with respect to earnings allocable to the Policy prior to the
receipt of payments under the Policy. The Code contains a safe harbor provision
which provides that life insurance policies such as the Policies meet the
diversification requirements if, as of the close of each quarter, the underlying
assets meet the diversification standards for a regulated investment company and
no more than fifty-five (55%) percent of the total assets consist of cash, cash
items, U.S. Government securities and securities of other regulated investment
companies. There is an exception for securities issued by the U.S. Treasury in
connection with variable life insurance policies.
On March 2, 1989, the Treasury Department issued Regulations (Treas. Reg.
Section 1.817-5), which establish diversification requirements for the
investment portfolios underlying variable contracts such as the Policies. The
Regulations amplify the diversification requirements for variable contracts set
forth in the Code and provide an alternative to the safe harbor provision
described above. Under the Regulations, an investment portfolio will be
18
<PAGE>
deemed adequately diversified if: (i) no more than 55% of the value of the total
assets of the portfolio is represented by any one investment; (ii) no more than
70% of the value of the total assets of the portfolio is represented by any two
investments; (iii) no more than 80% of the value of the total assets of the
portfolio is represented by any three investments; and (iv) no more than 90% of
the value of the total assets of the portfolio is represented by any four
investments. For purposes of these Regulations, all securities of the same
issuer are treated as a single investment.
The Code further provides that, for purposes of determining whether or not
the diversification standards imposed on the underlying assets of variable
contracts by Section 817(h) of the Code have been met, 'each United States
government agency or instrumentality shall be treated as a separate issuer.'
The Company intends that each Fund of the Trust underlying the Policies
will be managed by the Managers for the Trust in such a manner as to comply with
these diversification requirements.
The Treasury Department has indicated that the diversification Regulations
do not provide guidance regarding the circumstances in which Owner control of
the investments of the Variable Account will cause the Owner to be treated as
the owner of the assets of the Variable Account, thereby resulting in the loss
of favorable tax treatment for the Policy. At this time it cannot be determined
whether additional guidance will be provided and what standards may be contained
in such guidance.
The amount of Owner control which may be exercised under the Policy is
different in some respects from the situations addressed in published rulings
issued by the Internal Revenue Service in which it was held that the policy
owner was not the owner of the assets of the separate account. It is unknown
whether these differences, such as the Owner's ability to transfer among
investment choices or the number and type of investment choices available, would
cause the Owner to be considered as the owner of the assets of the Variable
Account.
In the event any forthcoming guidance or ruling is considered to set forth
a new position, such guidance or ruling will generally be applied only
prospectively. However, if such ruling or guidance was not considered to set
forth a new position, it may be applied retroactively resulting in the Owner
being retroactively determined to be the owner of the assets of the Variable
Account.
Due to the uncertainty in this area, the Company reserves the right to
modify the Policy in an attempt to maintain favorable tax treatment.
TAX TREATMENT OF THE POLICY
The Policy has been designed to comply with the definition of life
insurance contained in Section 7702 of the Code. Although some interim guidance
has been provided and proposed regulations have been issued, final regulations
have not been adopted. Section 7702 of the Code requires the use of reasonable
mortality and other expense charges. In establishing these charges, the Company
has relied on the interim guidance provided in IRS Notice 88-128 and proposed
regulations issued on July 5, 1991. Currently, there is even less guidance as to
a Policy issued on a substandard risk basis and thus it is even less clear
whether a Policy issued on such basis would meet the requirements of Section
7702 of the Code.
While the Company has attempted to comply with Section 7702, the law in
this area is very complex and unclear. There is a risk, therefore, that the
Internal Revenue Service will not concur with the Company's interpretations of
Section 7702 that were made in determining such compliance. In the event the
Policy is determined not to so comply, it would not qualify for the favorable
tax treatment usually accorded life insurance policies. Owners should consult
their tax advisers with respect to the tax consequences of purchasing the
Policy.
POLICY PROCEEDS
The tax treatment accorded to loan proceeds and/or surrender payments from
the Policies will depend on whether the Policy is considered to be a Modified
Endowment Contract. (See 'Tax Treatment of Loans and Surrenders.') Otherwise,
the Company believes that the Policy should receive the same federal income tax
treatment as any other type of life insurance. As such, the death benefit
thereunder is excludable from the gross income of the Beneficiary under Section
101(a) of the Code. Also, the Owner is not deemed to be in constructive receipt
of the Policy Account or Net Cash Value, including increments thereon, under a
Policy until there is a distribution of such amounts.
Federal, state and local estate, inheritance and other tax consequences of
ownership, or receipt of Policy proceeds, depend on the circumstances of each
Owner or Beneficiary.
19
<PAGE>
TAX TREATMENT OF LOANS AND SURRENDERS
Section 7702A of the Code sets forth the rules for determining when a life
insurance policy will be deemed to be a Modified Endowment Contract. A Modified
Endowment Contract is a contract which is entered into or materially changed on
or after June 21, 1988 and fails to meet the 7-pay test. A Policy fails to meet
the 7-pay test when the cumulative amount paid under the Policy at any time
during the first 7 Policy Years exceeds the sum of the net level premiums which
would have been paid on or before such time if the Policy provided for paid-up
future benefits after the payment of seven (7) level annual premiums. A material
change would include any increase in the future benefits or addition of
qualified additional benefits provided under a policy unless the increase is
attributable to: (1) the payment of premiums necessary to fund the lowest death
benefit and qualified additional benefits payable in the first seven policy
years; or (2) the crediting of interest or other earnings (including
policyholder dividends) with respect to such premiums.
Furthermore, any Policy received in exchange for a Policy classified as a
Modified Endowment Contract will be treated as a Modified Endowment Contract
regardless of whether it meets the 7-pay test. The status of an exchange of a
contract issued before June 21, 1988 is unclear, however, the Internal Revenue
Service has taken the position in a Private Letter Ruling that a contract
received in an exchange on or after June 21, 1988 will be considered as entered
into as of the date of the exchange and therefore subject to Section 7702A.
Due to the flexible premium nature of the Policy, the determination of
whether it qualifies for treatment as a Modified Endowment Contract depends on
the individual circumstances of each Policy.
If the Policy is classified as a Modified Endowment Contract, then
surrenders and/or loan proceeds are taxable to the extent of income in the
Policy. Such distributions are deemed to be on a last-in, first-out basis, which
means the taxable income is distributed first. Loan proceeds and/or surrender
payments may also be subject to an additional 10% federal income tax penalty
applied to the income portion of such distribution. The penalty shall not apply,
however, to any distributions: (1) made on or after the date on which the
taxpayer reaches age 59 1/2; (2) which is attributable to the taxpayer becoming
disabled (within the meaning of Section 72(m)(7) of the Code); or (3) which is
part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments made not less
frequently than annually for the life (or life expectancy) of the taxpayer or
the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of such taxpayer and his
beneficiary.
If a Policy is not classified as a Modified Endowment Contract, then any
surrenders shall be treated first as a recovery of the investment in the Policy
which would not be received as taxable income. However, if a distribution is the
result of a reduction in benefits under the Policy within the first fifteen
years after the Policy is issued in order to comply with Section 7702, such
distribution will, under rules set forth in Section 7702, be taxed as ordinary
income to the extent of income in the Policy.
Any loans from a Policy which is not classified as a Modified Endowment
Contract, will be treated as indebtedness of the Owner and not a distribution.
Personal interest payable on a loan under a Policy owned by an individual
is generally not deductible. Furthermore, no deduction will be allowed for
interest on loans under Policies covering the life of any employee or officer of
the taxpayer or any person financially interested in the business carried on by
the taxpayer to the extent the indebtedness for such employee, officer or
financially interested person exceeds $50,000. The deductibility of interest
payable on Policy loans may be subject to further rules and limitations under
Sections 163 and 264 of the Code.
Policy Owners should seek competent tax advice on the tax consequences of
taking loans, distributions or surrendering any Policy.
MULTIPLE POLICIES
The Code further provides that multiple Modified Endowment Contracts that
are issued within a calendar year period to the same owner by one company or its
affiliates are treated as one Modified Endowment Contract for purposes of
determining the taxable portion of any loans or distributions. Such treatment
may result in adverse tax consequences including more rapid taxation of the
loans or distributed amounts from such combination of contracts. Policy Owners
should consult a tax adviser prior to purchasing more than one Modified
Endowment Contract in any calendar year period.
TAX TREATMENT OF ASSIGNMENTS
An assignment of a Policy may be a taxable event. Policy Owners should
therefore consult competent tax advisers should they wish to assign their
Policies.
20
<PAGE>
QUALIFIED PLANS
The Policies may be used in conjunction with certain Qualified Plans.
Because the rules governing such use are complex, a purchaser should not do so
until he has consulted a competent Qualified Plans consultant.
VARIABLE ACCOUNT VOTING RIGHTS
In accordance with its view of present applicable law, the Company will
vote the shares of the Trust held in the Variable Account at special meetings of
the shareholders of the Trust in accordance with instructions received from
Owners (or Beneficiaries if applicable) having the voting interest in the
Variable Account. The Company will vote shares for which it has not received
instructions in the same proportion as it votes shares for which it has received
instructions. The Company will vote shares it owns in the same proportion as it
votes shares for which it has received instructions. The Trust does not hold
regular meetings of shareholders.
If the Investment Company Act of 1940 or any regulation thereunder should
be amended or if the present interpretation thereof should change, and as a
result the Company determines that it is permitted to vote the shares of the
Trust in its own right, it may elect to do so.
The voting interests of the Owner (or the Beneficiary if applicable) in the
Trust will be determined as follows: Owners may cast one vote for each $100 of
Account Value of the Policy allocated to the Sub-Account on the record date for
the shareholder meeting of the Trust. Fractional votes are counted.
The number of shares which a person has a right to vote will be determined
as of the date to be chosen by the Company not more than sixty (60) days prior
to the meeting of the Trust. Voting instructions will be solicited by written
communication at least fourteen (14) days prior to such meeting.
Each Owner (or Beneficiary if applicable) having the voting interest in the
Variable Account will receive periodic reports relating to the Trust in which he
or she has an interest, proxy material and a form with which to give such voting
instructions with respect to the proportion of the shares held in the Variable
Account corresponding to his or her interest in the Variable Account.
DISREGARD OF VOTING INSTRUCTIONS
The Company may, when required to do so by state insurance authorities,
vote shares of the Trust without regard to instructions from Owners if such
instructions would require such shares to be voted to cause any Fund of the
Trust to make (or refrain from making) investments which would result in changes
in the sub-classification or investment objectives of the Trust or a Fund. The
Company may also disapprove changes in the investment policy initiated by the
Owners or trustees of the Trust, if such disapproval is reasonable and is based
on a good faith determination by the Company that the change would violate state
or federal law or the change would not be consistent with the investment
objectives of the Trust or a Fund or which varies from the general quality and
nature of investments and investment techniques used by other funds with similar
investment objectives underlying other separate accounts of the Company or of an
affiliated life insurance company. In the event the Company does disregard
voting instructions, a summary of this action and the reasons for such action
will be included in the next semi-annual report to Owners.
DISTRIBUTION OF THE POLICY
The Policy is sold by licensed insurance agents, where the Policy may be
lawfully sold, who are registered representatives of broker-dealers which are
registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are members of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
The Policy is distributed through the principal underwriter, NALAC
Financial Plans, Inc., 1750 Hennepin Avenue, Minneapolis, MN, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company.
Commissions will be paid to broker-dealers who sell the Policies.
Broker-dealers will be paid commissions and expense reimbursements up to an
amount equal to 100% of the first Guaranteed Coverage Premium; 4% of the next
six Guaranteed Coverage Premiums; and 2% of all premiums paid thereafter.
Similar commissions are paid on premiums received after any increase in Face
Amount, or the addition of a rider. In addition, broker-dealers may also receive
additional compensation, based on meeting certain production standards.
REPORTS TO OWNERS
The Company will send to each Owner annual reports of the Variable Account.
Within 30 days after each Policy Anniversary, an annual statement will be sent
to each Owner. The statement will show the current amount of death benefit
payable under the Policy, the current Policy Account, the current Net Cash
Value, current Indebtedness and will show all transactions previously confirmed.
The statement will also show premiums paid, investment returns and all charges
21
<PAGE>
deducted during the Policy Year.
Confirmations will be mailed to Policy Owners within seven days of the
transaction of: (a) the receipt of premium other than by monthly pre-authorized
checks or drafts or government allotments; (b) any transfer between Sub-
Accounts; (c) any loan, interest repayment, or loan repayment; (d) any
surrender; (e) exercise of the free look privilege; (f) any exchange of the
Policy; and (g) payment of the death benefit under the Policy. Upon request, a
Policy Owner shall be entitled to a receipt evidencing payment of premium.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no legal proceedings to which the Variable Account or the
principal underwriter is a party or to which the assets of the Variable Account
are subject. The Company is not involved in any litigation that is of material
importance in relation to its total assets or that relates to the Variable
Account.

ALLIANZ LIFE VARIABLE ACCOUNT A
OF ALLIANZ LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NORTH AMERICA
================================================================================
Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 1996 (unaudited)
1. Organization
Allianz Life Variable Account A (Variable Account) is a segregated investment
account of Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America (Allianz Life)
registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a unit investment
trust pursuant to the provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (as
amended). The Variable Account was established on May 31, 1985 and commenced
operations September 8, 1987. Accordingly, it is an accounting entity wherein
all segregated account transactions are reflected.
The Variable Account's assets are the property of Allianz Life and are held for
the benefit of the owners and other persons entitled to payments under variable
life policies issued through the Variable Account and underwritten by Allianz
Life. The assets of the Variable Account, equal to the reserves and other
liabilities of the Variable Account, are not chargeable with liabilities that
arise from any other business which Allianz Life may conduct.
The Variable Account's sub-accounts may invest, at net asset values, in one or
more of the funds of the Franklin Valuemark Funds (FVF), managed by Franklin
Advisers, Inc., in accordance with the selection made by the policy owner. Not
all funds are available as investment options for the products which comprise
the Variable Account.
Certain officers and trustees of the FVF are also officers and/or directors of
Franklin Advisers, Inc. and/or Allianz Life.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
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.
Investments
Investments of the Variable Account are valued daily at market value using net
asset values provided by Franklin Advisers, Inc.
Realized investment gains include realized gain distributions received from the
respective funds and gains on the sale of fund shares as determined by the
average cost method.
Realized gain distributions are reinvested in the respective funds. Dividend
distributions received from the FVF are reinvested in additional shares of the
FVF and are recorded as income to the Variable Account on the ex-dividend date.
A Fixed Account investment option is available to variable universal life policy
owners. This account is comprised of equity and fixed income investments which
are part of the general assets of Allianz Life. The liabilities of the Fixed
Account are part of the general obligations of Allianz Life and are not included
in the Variable Account. The guaranteed minimum rate of return on the Fixed
Account is 3.5%.
The Templeton Developing Markets Equity Fund, Templeton Global Growth Fund and
Fixed Account were added as available investment options on July 1, 1994. The
Templeton Global Asset Allocation Fund and Small Cap Fund were added as
available investment options on May 1, 1995 and November 1, 1995, respectively.
The Small Cap Fund had no investment activity during 1995. The Zero Coupon -
1995 Fund matured and was closed on December 15, 1995.
The Capital Growth Fund and Templeton International Smaller Companies Fund were
added as available investment options on May 1, 1996. These funds had no
investment activity during the period ended June 30, 1996 (unaudited).
On May 1, 1995, the Equity Growth Fund name was changed to Growth and Income
Fund. The Global Income Fund name was changed to Templeton Global Income
Securities Fund on May 1, 1996.
Expenses
Asset Based Expenses
A mortality and expense risk charge is deducted from the Variable Account on a
daily basis equal, on an annual basis, to .60% of the daily net assets of the
Variable Account.
An administrative charge is deducted from the Variable Account on a daily basis
equal, on an annual basis, to .15% of the daily net assets of the Variable
Account.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)
Expenses (cont.)
Contract Based Expenses
A cost of insurance charge is deducted against each policy by liquidating units.
The amount of the charge is based upon age, sex, rate class and net amount at
risk (death benefit less total cash surrender value). Total cost of insurance
charges paid by the policy owners for the period ended June 30, 1996 (unaudited)
and the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 were $343,065, $581,193 and
$123,231, respectively.
A deferred issue charge is deducted annually, at the end of the policy year,
from each single premium variable life policy for the first ten policy years by
liquidating units. The amount of the charge is 7% of the single premium
consisting of 2.5% for premium taxes, 4% for sales charge and .5% for policy
issue charge (in the State of California, 2.35%, 4.15% and .5%, respectively).
If the policy is surrendered before the full amount is collected, the
uncollected portion of this charge is deducted from the account value. Total
deferred issue charges paid by the policy owners for the period ended June 30,
1996 (unaudited) and the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 were $24,480,
$28,613 and $32,516, respectively.
A policy charge is deducted on each monthly anniversary date from each variable
universal life policy by liquidating units. The amount of the charge is equal to
2.5% of each premium payment for premium taxes plus $20 per month for the first
policy year and $9 per month guaranteed thereafter. Currently, Allianz Life has
agreed to voluntarily limit the charge to $5 per month after the first policy
year. Total policy charges paid by the policy owners for the period ended June
30, 1996 (unaudited) and the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 were
$100,993, $292,695 and $64,030, respectively.
Twelve free transfers are permitted each contract year. Thereafter, the fee is
the lesser of $25 or 2% of the amount transferred. No transfer charges were paid
by the policy owners during the period ended June 30, 1996 (unaudited) and the
years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Transfers to the Fixed
Account during the period ended June 30, 1996 (unaudited) and the years ended
December 31, 1995 and 1994 were $13,877, $21,713 and $3,609, respectively.
The cost of insurance, deferred issue, policy and transfer charges paid are
reflected in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets as other transactions.

ALLIANZ LIFE VARIABLE ACCOUNT A
OF ALLIANZ LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NORTH AMERICA
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors of Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America and
Policyholders of Allianz Life Variable Account A:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the
sub-accounts of Allianz Life Variable Account A as of December 31, 1995, and
the related statements of operations and changes in net assets for each of the
years in the three-year period then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Variable Account'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.
Investment securities held in custody for the benefit of the Variable Account
were confirmed to us by the Franklin Valuemark Funds. 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 assets and liabilities of the sub-accounts of
Allianz Life Variable Account A at December 31, 1995, and the results of their
operations and the changes in their net assets for each of the years in the
three-year period then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

ALLIANZ LIFE VARIABLE ACCOUNT A
of
ALLIANZ LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NORTH AMERICA
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1995
1. ORGANIZATION
Allianz Life Variable Account A (Variable Account) is a segregated investment
account of Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America (Allianz Life)
registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a unit investment
trust pursuant to the provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (as
amended). The Variable Account was established on May 31, 1985 and commenced
operations September 8, 1987. Accordingly, it is an accounting entity wherein
all segregated account transactions are reflected.
The Variable Account's assets are the property of Allianz Life and are held
for the benefit of the owners and other persons entitled to payments under
variable life policies issued through the Variable Account and underwritten by
Allianz Life. The assets of the Variable Account, equal to the reserves and
other liabilities of the Variable Account, are not chargeable with liabilities
that arise from any other business which Allianz Life may conduct.
The Variable Account's sub-accounts may invest, at net asset values, in one or
more of the funds of the Franklin Valuemark Funds (FVF), managed by Franklin
Advisers, Inc., in accordance with the selection made by the policy owner.
Not all funds are available as investment options for the products which
comprise the Variable Account.
Certain officers and trustees of the FVF are also officers and/or directors of
Franklin Advisers, Inc. and/or Allianz Life.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
USE OF ESTIMATES
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.
INVESTMENTS
Investments of the Variable Account are valued daily at market value using net
asset values provided by Franklin Advisers, Inc.
Realized investment gains include realized gain distributions received from
the respective funds and gains on the sale of fund shares as determined by the
average cost method.
Realized gain distributions are reinvested in the respective funds. Dividend
distributions received from the FVF are reinvested in additional shares of the
FVF and are recorded as income to the Variable Account on the ex-dividend
date.
A Fixed Account investment option is available to variable universal life
policy owners. This account is comprised of equity and fixed income
investments which are part of the general assets of Allianz Life. The
liabilities of the Fixed Account are part of the general obligations of
Allianz Life and are not included in the Variable Account. The guaranteed
minimum rate of return on the Fixed Account is 3.5%.
The Templeton Developing Markets Equity Fund, Templeton Global Growth Fund and
Fixed Account were added as available investment options on July 1, 1994. The
Templeton Global Asset Allocation Fund and Small Cap Fund were added as
available investment options on May 1, 1995 and November 1, 1995,
respectively. The Small Cap Fund had no investment activity during 1995. The
Zero Coupon - 1995 Fund matured and was closed on December 15, 1995.
In April 1995, the Equity Growth Fund name was changed to Growth and Income
Fund.
EXPENSES
ASSET BASED EXPENSES
A mortality and expense risk charge is deducted from the Variable Account on a
daily basis equal, on an annual basis, to .60% of the daily net assets of the
Variable Account.
An administrative charge is deducted from the Variable Account on a daily
basis equal, on an annual basis, to .15% of the daily net assets of the
Variable Account.
CONTRACT BASED EXPENSES
A cost of insurance charge is deducted against each policy by liquidating
units. The amount of the charge is based upon age, sex, rate class and net
amount at risk (death benefit less total cash surrender value). Total cost of
insurance charges paid by the policy owners for the years ended December 31,
1995, 1994 and 1993 were $581,193, $123,231 and $46,026, respectively.
A deferred issue charge is deducted annually, at the end of the policy year,
from each single premium variable life policy for the first ten policy years
by liquidating units. The amount of the charge is 7% of the single premium
consisting of 2.5% for premium taxes, 4% for sales charge and .5% for policy
issue charge (in the State of California, 2.35%, 4.15% and .5%, respectively).
If the policy is surrendered before the full amount is collected, the
uncollected portion of this charge is deducted from the account value. Total
deferred issue charges paid by the policy owners for the years ended December
31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 were $28,613, $32,516 and $34,016, respectively.
A policy charge is deducted on each monthly anniversary date from each
variable universal life policy by liquidating units. The amount of the charge
is equal to 2.5% of each premium payment for premium taxes plus $20 per month
for the first policy year and $9 per month guaranteed thereafter. Currently,
Allianz Life has agreed to voluntarily limit the charge to $5 per month after
the first policy year. Total policy charges paid by the policy owners for the
years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 were $292,695 and $64,030,
respectively. There were no variable universal life policies issued during
the year ended December 31, 1993.
Twelve free transfers are permitted each contract year. Thereafter, the fee
is the lesser of $25 or 2% of the amount transferred. No transfer charges
were paid by the policy owners during the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994
and 1993, respectively. Transfers to the Fixed Account during the years ended
December 31, 1995 and 1994 were $21,713 and $3,609, respectively.
The cost of insurance, deferred issue, policy and transfer charges paid are
reflected in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets as other transactions.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors
Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Allianz Life
Insurance Company of North America (a wholly owned subsidiary of Allianz of
America, Inc.) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
related consolidated statements of income, stockholder's equity and cash flows
for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1995. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
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. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position
of Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America and subsidiaries as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of their operations and changes in
stockholder's equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year
period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
In 1994, as discussed in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the
Company adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. In 1993, as discussed in notes 1,
8 and 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted the
provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statements of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, Accounting for Postretirement Benefits
Other Than Pensions and No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America (the Company) is a wholly
owned subsidiary of Allianz of America, Inc. (AZOA), a majority-owned
subsidiary of Allianz A.G. Holding, a Federal Republic of Germany company.
The Company is a life insurance company which is licensed to sell both group
and individual life, annuity and accident and health policies in the United
States, Canada and several U.S. territories. Based on 1995 gross premium
volume, 13%, 71% and 16% of the Company's business is life, annuity and
accident and health, respectively. The Company's primary distribution
channels are through strategic alliances with other insurance companies and
third party marketing organizations. The Company has a significant
relationship as of December 31, 1995 with a mutual fund company and its
broker/dealer network related to sales of its variable life and variable
annuity products and another significant administration, marketing and
reinsurance relationship with an unrelated insurance company.
Following is a summary of the significant accounting policies reflected in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) which vary in certain respects
from accounting rules prescribed or permitted by state insurance regulatory
authorities. The accounts of the Company's major subsidiaries, Preferred Life
Insurance Company of New York and Canadian American Financial Corporation and
other less significant subsidiaries have been consolidated. All significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Certain amounts as previously reported have been reclassified to be consistent
with the current year's presentation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires
management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported
assets and liabilities including reporting or disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could vary
significantly from management's estimates.
RECOGNITION OF TRADITIONAL LIFE, GROUP LIFE AND GROUP ACCIDENT AND HEALTH
REVENUE
Traditional life products include products with guaranteed premiums and
benefits and consist principally of whole life and term insurance policies,
limited payment contracts and certain annuity products with life
contingencies.
Premiums on traditional life and group life products are recognized as income
when due. Group accident and health premiums are recognized as earned on a pro
rata basis over the risk coverage periods. Benefits and expenses for
traditional and group products are matched with earned premiums so that
profits are recognized over the premium paying periods of the contracts. This
matching is accomplished by establishing provisions for future policy benefits
and policy and contract claims, and deferring and amortizing related policy
acquisition costs.
<PAGE>
RECOGNITION OF NONTRADITIONAL AND VARIABLE LIFE AND ANNUITY REVENUE
Nontraditional and variable life insurance and interest sensitive contracts
that have significant mortality or morbidity risk are accounted for in
accordance with the retrospective deposit method. Interest sensitive
contracts that do not have significant mortality or morbidity risk are
accounted for in a manner consistent with interest bearing financial
instruments. For both types of contracts, premium receipts are reported as
deposits to the contractholder's account while revenues consist of amounts
assessed against contractholders including surrender charges and earned
administrative service fees. Mortality or morbidity charges are also
accounted for as revenue on those contracts containing mortality or morbidity
risk. Benefits consist of interest credited to contractholder's accounts and
claims or benefits incurred in excess of the contractholder's balance.
DEFERRED ACQUISITION COSTS
Acquisition costs, consisting of commissions and other costs which vary with
and are primarily related to production of new business, are deferred. For
traditional life and group life products, such costs are amortized over the
revenue-producing period of the related policies using the same actuarial
assumptions used in computing future policy benefit reserves. Acquisition
costs for accident and health insurance policies are deferred and amortized
over the lives of the policies in the same manner as premiums are earned. For
interest sensitive products, acquisition costs are amortized in relation to
the present value of expected future gross profits from investment margins and
mortality, morbidity and expense charges. Deferred acquisition costs amortized
during 1995, 1994 and 1993 were $117,782, $108,676 and $72,431, respectively.
FUTURE POLICY BENEFIT RESERVES
Future policy benefit reserves on traditional life products are computed by
the net level premium method based upon estimated future investment yield,
mortality and withdrawal assumptions, commensurate with the Company's
experience, modified as necessary to reflect anticipated trends, including
possible unfavorable deviations. Most life reserve interest assumptions are
graded from 9% to 5.5%.
Future policy benefit reserves for interest sensitive products are generally
carried at accumulated contract values. Reserves on some deferred annuity
contracts are computed based on contractholder cash value accumulations,
adjusted for mortality, withdrawal and interest margin assumptions.
Fair values of investment contracts, which include deferred annuities and
other annuities without significant mortality risk, were determined by testing
amounts payable on demand against discounted cash flows using interest rates
commensurate with the risks involved. Fair values are based on the amount
payable on demand at December 31, 1995 and 1994.
POLICY AND CONTRACT CLAIMS
Policy and contract claims represent an estimate of claims and claim
adjustment expenses on accident and health and life insurance policies that
have been reported but not yet paid and incurred but not yet reported as of
December 31.
REINSURANCE
Insurance liabilities are reported before the effects of reinsurance. Amounts
paid or deemed to have been paid for claims covered by reinsurance contracts
are recorded as reinsurance receivable. Reinsurance receivables are recognized
in a manner consistent with the liabilities related to the underlying
reinsured contracts.
<PAGE>
INVESTMENTS
On January 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and
Equity Securities which addresses the accounting and reporting for investments
in equity securities that have readily determinable fair values and for all
investments in debt securities. Those investments are classified in one of
three categories. Debt securities that the Company has the positive intent
and ability to hold to maturity are classified as "held-to-maturity
securities" and reported at amortized cost. Debt and equity securities bought
and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are
classified as "trading securities" and reported at fair value, with unrealized
gains and losses included in earnings. Debt and equity securities not
classified as either "held-to-maturity securities" or "trading securities" are
classified as "available-for-sale securities" and reported at fair value, with
unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of stockholders'
equity, net of deferred taxes. SFAS No. 115 did not permit retroactive
application of its provisions. The Company classified the majority of its
investment portfolio as "available-for-sale securities" with a limited number
of securities classified as "held-to-maturity" at January 1, 1994.
At December 31, 1995, the Company transferred all of its securities with an
amortized cost of $83,357 classified as "held-to-maturity' to the
"available-for-sale" classifications as provided in the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) Special Report on the implementation of SFAS No. 115.
The effect of this transfer was an increase in stockholder's equity of $1,789.
All of the Company's investment portfolio is classified as
"available-for-sale" at December 31, 1995.
Short-term investments are carried at amortized cost which approximates
market. Policy loans are reflected at their unpaid principal balances.
Mortgage loans are reflected at unpaid principal balances adjusted for premium
and discount amortization and an allowance for uncollectible balances. During
1995, the Company adopted SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment
of a Loan and SFAS No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
Loan-Income Recognition and Disclosures. SFAS No. 114 addresses accounting by
creditors for impairment of certain loans. It requires that impaired loans
within the scope of the Statement be measured based on the present value of
expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate
or, alternatively, at the loan's observable market price of the fair value of
supporting collateral. The Company analyzes loan impairment at least once a
year when assessing the adequacy of the allowance for possible credit losses.
SFAS No. 118 permits existing income recognition practices to continue. The
Company does not accrue interest on impaired loans and accounts for interest
income on a cash basis. The adoption of these Statements did not have a
material impact on the Company's net income or financial position.
Investments in real estate are reflected at the lower of cost or market value.
Real estate occupied by the Company is reflected at cost, less accumulated
depreciation. Investments in real estate, exclusive of land, are being
depreciated on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives ranging from
3 to 30 years.
Realized gains and losses are computed based on the specific identification
method.
As of December 31, 1995 and 1994, investments with a carrying value of $37,879
and $44,337, respectively, were held on deposit with various insurance
departments as required by statutory regulations.
The fair values of invested assets, excluding investments in real estate, are
deemed by management to approximate their estimated market values. The fair
value of mortgage loans has been calculated using discounted cash flows and is
based on pertinent information available to management as of year end. Policy
loan balances which are supported by the underlying cash value of the policies
approximate fair value. Changes in market conditions subsequent to year end
<PAGE>
may cause estimates of fair values to differ from the amounts presented
herein.
INCOME TAXES
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax
rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those
temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on
deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period that includes the enactment date.
SEPARATE ACCOUNTS
Separate accounts represent funds for which investment income and investment
gains and losses accrue directly to the policyholders and contractholders.
Each account has specific investment objectives and the assets are carried at
market value. The assets of each account are legally segregated and are not
subject to claims which arise out of any other business of the Company.
Fair values of separate accounts assets were determined using the market value
of the investments held in segregated fund accounts. Fair values of separate
accounts liabilities were determined using the cash surrender values of the
policyholder's and contractholder's account.
RECEIVABLES
Receivable balances approximate estimated fair values. This is based on
pertinent information available to management as of year end including the
financial condition and credit worthiness of the parties underlying the
receivables. Changes in market conditions subsequent to year end may cause
estimates of fair values to differ from the amounts presented herein.
ACCOUNTING CHANGES
The impact of implementation of SFAS No. 115 in 1994 was an increase in equity
of $74,866 at January 1, 1994.

ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS TO BE ADOPTED
In March 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of, which requires
impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when
indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated
to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount.
SFAS No. 121 also addresses the accounting for long-lived assets that are
expected to be disposed of by a company. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 121
in the first quarter of 1996 and, based on current circumstances, does not
believe the effect of adoption will be material.

(2) BUSINESS COMBINATION
On May 31, 1993, the Company acquired the majority of the assets and
liabilities of Fidelity Union Life Insurance Company (FULICO), a wholly owned
subsidiary of AZOA, through an assumption reinsurance arrangement. FULICO
remained in existence retaining only its corporate charter and those assets
necessary to maintain its charter and licenses to conduct life insurance and
annuity business until it was sold in 1994.
The Company accounted for this transaction as an "as-if pooling of interests"
involving the combination of entities under the common control of AZOA.
Accordingly, all financial data for periods prior to May 31, 1993 were
restated to include the operations of FULICO and all intercompany transactions
were eliminated.

In 1995, in conjunction with an expanded marketing agreement, the Company
provided an unrelated insurance company with $30 million in exchange for a
fifteen year convertible debenture paying 5% interest for the first five years
with the interest rate reset annually thereafter at the one-year LIBOR plus
1%. If converted, the Company would obtain approximately 10% equity ownership
in the unrelated company. The Company has no intention of converting the
debenture in the near term.
During 1995 and 1994, the Company entered into mortgage backed security
reverse repurchase transactions ("dollar rolls") with certain securities
dealers. Under this program, the Company sells certain securities for
delivery in the current month and simultaneously contracts with the same
dealer to repurchase similar, but not identical, securities on a specified
future date. The Company gives up the right to receive principal and interest
on the securities sold. As of December 31, 1995 there were no outstanding
amounts under the Company's dollar roll program. As of December 31, 1994,
mortgage backed securities underlying the agreements were carried at a market
value of $58,174 and other liabilities included $58,150 for funds received
under these agreements. Average balances outstanding were $67,735 and $66,110
and weighted average interest rates were 7.4% and 6.5% during 1995 and 1994,
respectively.
During 1995 and 1994 the Company participated in a securities lending program
that is administered by Allianz Investment Corporation (AIC), an affiliated
company. Under this program, the Company loans U.S. Treasury Notes to
qualified third parties. The Company obtains collateral for the loan equal to
102 percent of the estimated market value and accrued interest on the loaned
securities and receives a portion of the interest earned on the collateral.
In addition, the Company maintains full ownership rights to the securities
loaned, including investment income and has the ability to sell the securities
while they are on loan with the consent of the borrower. There were no
securities on loan at December 31, 1995. As of December 31, 1994, the
estimated market value of the loaned securities was $110,063, collateralized
by investments in FNMA securities.

(6) ACCIDENT AND HEALTH CLAIMS RESERVES
Accident and health claims reserves are based on long-range projections
subject to uncertainty. Uncertainty regarding reserves of a given accident
year is gradually reduced as new information emerges each succeeding year,
thereby allowing more reliable re-evaluations of such reserves. While
management believes that reserves as of December 31, 1995 are adequate,
uncertainties in the reserving process could cause such reserves to develop
favorably or unfavorably in the near term as new or additional information
emerges. Any adjustments to reserves are reflected in the operating results
of the periods in which they are made. Movements in reserves which are small
relative to the amount of such reserves could significantly impact future
reported earnings of the Company.

Activity in the accident and health claims reserves, exclusive of long term
care, hospital indemnity and AIDS reserves of $18,858, $11,149 and $8,742 in

(7) REINSURANCE
In the normal course of business, the Company seeks to limit its exposure to
loss on any single insured and to recover a portion of benefits paid by ceding
risks under excess coverage and coinsurance contracts. The Company retains a
maximum of $1 million coverage per individual life.
Reinsurance contracts do not relieve the Company from its obligations to
policyholders. Failure of reinsurers to honor their obligations could result
in losses to the Company; consequently, allowances are established for amounts
deemed uncollectible. The Company evaluates the financial condition of its
reinsurers and monitors concentrations of credit risk to minimize its exposure
to significant losses from reinsurer insolvencies.
Included in reinsurance receivables at December 31, 1995 are $873,724, $67,819
and $148,319 recoverable from insurers who, as of December 31, 1995, were
rated A+, A+ and B++, respectively by Best's Insurance Reports. A contingent
liability exists to the extent that the Company's reinsurers are unable to
meet their contractual obligations. Management is of the opinion that no
liability will accrue to the Company with respect to this contingency.

Although realization is not assured, the Company believes it is not necessary
to establish a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset as it is more
likely than not the deferred tax asset will be realized principally through
future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and future taxable
income. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however,
could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future reversals of existing
taxable temporary differences and future taxable income are reduced.
As of December 31, 1995, the Company had no tax loss carryforwards or
alternative minimum tax credits.
The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return with AZOA and all
of its wholly owned subsidiaries. The consolidated tax allocation agreement
stipulates that each company participating in the return will bear its share
of the tax liability pursuant to United States Treasury Department
regulations. The Company and each of its insurance subsidiaries generally
will be paid for the tax benefit on their losses, and any other tax
attributes, to the extent they could have obtained a benefit against their
<PAGE>
post-1990 separate return taxable income or tax. Income taxes paid by the
Company were $14,865, $15,162 and $28,465 in 1995, 1994 and 1993,
respectively. At December 31, 1995 and 1994 the Company has a tax recoverable
from AZOA of $3,257 and $5,095 and a recoverable from Revenue Canada Taxation
of $690 and a payable to Revenue Canada Taxation of $1,301, respectively.
(9) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In November 1995, the Company purchased the 400 non-voting common shares in
its subsidiary, Canadian American Financial Corporation from AZOA for $7,903.
The acquisition of the shares increased the Company's equity ownership in both
voting and non-voting common stock to 100%.
As of December 31, 1995 and 1994, Allianz Real Estate (AzRE), a wholly owned
subsidiary of AZOA, owned 100% of the stock or was a limited partner of
certain entities whose assets include mortgage loans issued by the Company
amounting to $6,245 and $12,100, respectively. Included in the mortgage loans
are properties originally foreclosed upon by the Company of which the balances
at December 31, 1995 and 1994 are $1,650 and $4,575, respectively.
Allianz Investment Corporation (AIC) manages the Company's investment
portfolio. The Company paid AIC $1,024, $1,285 and $1,207 in 1995, 1994 and
1993, respectively, for investment advisory fees. The Company's liability to
AIC was $377 and $0 at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
The Company shares a data center with affiliated insurance companies. Usage
charges paid to the data center by the Company were $3,752, $4,228 and $4,715
in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The Company's liability for data center
charges was $337 and $457 at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
The Company reimbursed AZOA $738, $817 and $339 in 1995, 1994 and 1993,
respectively, for certain administrative services performed. The Company's
liability to AZOA was $528 and $264 at December 31, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.
In June 1994, the Company authorized 200 million shares of preferred stock
with a par value of $1 per share. This preferred stock is issuable in series
with the number of shares, redemption rights and dividend rate designated by
the Board of Directors for each series. Dividends are cumulative at a rate
reflective of prevailing market conditions at time of issue and are payable
semiannually. Dividend payments are restricted by provisions in State of
Minnesota statutes. In June 1994, the Company issued 25 millions shares of
Series A preferred stock with a dividend rate of 6.4% to AZOA for $25,000. In
December 1994, the Company issued 15 millions shares of Series B preferred
stock with a dividend rate of 6.95% to AZOA for $15,000. In December 1995,
the Company redeemed and canceled the 15 million shares of Series B preferred
stock issued to AZOA. There are currently 25 million shares of Series A
preferred stock issued and outstanding.
In 1995 and 1994, AZOA contributed additional capital to the Company of $594
and $5,190, respectively.
(10) EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company participates in the Allianz Primary Retirement Plan (Primary
Retirement Plan), a defined contribution plan. The Company makes
contributions to a money purchase pension plan on behalf of eligible
participants. All employees, excluding agents, are eligible to participate in
the Primary Retirement Plan after two years of service. The contributions are
based on a percentage of the participant's salary with the participants being
100% vested upon eligibility. It is the Company's policy to fund the plan
costs as accrued. Total pension contributions were $860, $918 and $1,363 in
1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
<PAGE>
The Company participates in the Allianz Asset Accumulation Plan (Allianz
Plan), a defined contribution plan sponsored by AZOA. Under the Allianz Plan
provisions, the Company will match from 50% to 100% of eligible employees'
contributions up to a maximum of 6% of a participant's compensation. The
total Company match for 1995, 1994 and 1993 Plan participants was 100%. All
employees, excluding agents, are eligible to participate after one year of
service and are fully vested in the Company's matching contribution after
three years of service. The Allianz Plan will accept participants' pretax or
after-tax contributions up to 15% of the participant's compensation. It is the
Company's policy to fund the Allianz Plan costs as accrued. The Company has
accrued $1,188, $1,266 and $1,270 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively, toward
planned contributions.
The Company sponsors an asset accumulation plan for field agents. Under the
Plan provisions, the Company will match 100% of eligible agents' contributions
up to a maximum of 3% of a participant's compensation. The Plan accepts
participant's pretax or after tax contributions up to 10% of participant's
compensation. It is the Company's policy to fund the Plan costs as accrued.
In 1995, the Company discontinued support of its individual agency field force
and suspended contributions to the Plan as of January 1, 1996. Also during
1995, participation in the Plan decreased significantly resulting in a partial
plan termination whereby participants as of January 1, 1995 became fully
vested in the Plan. The Company has no intention to fully terminate the Plan
in the near term. Total Company contributions to the Plan were $118, $386 and
$319 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 106, effective January 1, 1993 which requires
benefits paid to retirees, other than pension benefits, to be accrued. The
transition obligation associated with this adoption was $4,006, which is net
of a $2,064 tax benefit. The Company's current plan obligation is $5,532 and
the liability is included in "Other liabilities" in the accompanying balance
sheet.
(11) STATUTORY FINANCIAL DATA AND DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS
Statutory accounting is directed toward insurer solvency and protection of
policyholders. Accordingly, certain items recorded in financial statements
prepared under GAAP are excluded in determining statutory policyholders'
surplus. These items include, among other, deferred acquisition costs,
furniture and fixtures, accident and health premiums receivable which are more
than 90 days past due, deferred taxes and undeclared dividends to
policyholders. Additionally, future life policy and annuity benefit reserves
calculated for statutory accounting do not include provisions for withdrawals.

</TABLE>
The Company is required to meet minimum statutory capital and surplus
requirements. The Company's statutory capital and surplus as of December 31,
1995 and 1994 was in compliance with these requirements. The maximum amount
of dividends which can be paid by Minnesota insurance companies to
stockholders without prior approval of the Commissioner of Commerce is subject
to restrictions relating to statutory earned surplus, also known as unassigned
funds. Unassigned funds are determined in accordance with the accounting
procedures and practices governing preparation of the statutory annual
statement, minus 25% of earned surplus attributable to unrealized capital
gains. In accordance with Minnesota Statutes, the Company may declare and pay
from its surplus, cash dividends of not more than the greater of 10% of its
beginning of the year statutory surplus in any year, or the net gain from
operations of the insurer, not including realized gains, for the 12-month
period ending the 31st day of the next preceding year. In 1995 and 1994,
respectively, the Company paid dividends on preferred stock in the amount of
$2,651 and $413, respectively to AZOA. Dividends of $23,433 could be paid in
1996 without prior approval of the Commissioner of Commerce.
REGULATORY RISK BASED CAPITAL
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
An insurance enterprise's state of domicile imposes minimum risk-based capital
requirements that were developed by the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners (NAIC). The formulas for determining the amount of risk-based
capital specify various weighting factors that are applied to financial
balances or various levels of activity based on the perceived degree of risk.
Regulatory compliance is determined by a ratio of an enterprise's regulatory
total adjusted capital to its authorized control level risk-based capital, as
defined by the NAIC. Enterprises below specific triggerpoints or ratios are
classified within certain levels, each of which requires specified corrective
action. The levels and ratios are as follows:
Ratio of total adjusted capital to
authorized control level risk-based
Regulatory Event Capital (less than or equal to)
- ------------------------ ------------------------------------
<S> <C>
Company action level 2 (or 2.5 with negative trends)
Regulatory action level 1.5
Authorized control level 1
Mandatory control level 0.7
</TABLE>
The Company met the minimum risk-based capital requirements for the years
ended December 31, 1995 and 1994.
<PAGE>
PERMITTED STATUTORY ACCOUNTING PRACTICES
The Company is required to file annual statements with insurance regulatory
authorities which are prepared on an accounting basis prescribed or permitted
by such authorities. Currently, prescribed statutory accounting practices
include state laws, regulations, and general administrative rules, as well as
a variety of publications of the NAIC. Permitted statutory accounting
practices encompass all accounting practices that are not prescribed; such
practices differ from state to state, may differ from company to company
within a state, and may change in the future. The NAIC currently has a
project underway to codify statutory accounting practices, the result of which
is expected to constitute the only source of "prescribed" statutory accounting
practices. Accordingly, that project will likely change the definition of
what comprises prescribed versus permitted statutory accounting practices, and
may result in changes to existing accounting policies insurance enterprises
use to prepare their statutory financial statements. The Company does not
currently use permitted statutory accounting practices which have a
significant impact on its statutory financial statements.
(12) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various pending or threatened
legal proceedings arising from the conduct of their business. In the opinion
of management, the ultimate resolution of such litigation will not have a
material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position of the Company.
The Company is contingently liable for possible future assessments under
regulatory requirements pertaining to insolvencies and impairments of
unaffiliated insurance companies. Provision has been made for assessments
currently received and assessments anticipated for known insolvencies.
(13) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
The net assets of the Company's foreign operations are translated into U.S.
dollars using exchange rates in effect at each year end. Translation adjustments
arising from differences in exchange rates from period to period are included in
the accumulated foreign currency translation adjustment reported as a separate
component of stockholder's equity. An analysis of this account for the respective

APPENDIX A
ILLUSTRATION OF POLICY VALUES
The following tables illustrate how Policy Account values, Cash Values and
death benefits of a Policy change with the investment experience of the
Sub-Accounts. The illustrations are hypothetical and may not be used to project
or predict investment results. The Policy Account values, Cash Values and death
benefits in the tables take into account all charges and deductions against the
Policy. These tables assume that the cost of insurance rates for the Policy are
based on the current and guaranteed rates appropriate to the class indicated.
These tables also assume that a level annual premium of $1,200 was paid. These
tables all assume that the Insured is in the most favorable male risk status,
i.e., Non-Smoker. For Insureds who are classified as Smoker or less favorable
risk status, the cost of insurance will be greater and thus Policy values will
be less given the same assumed hypothetical gross annual investment rates of
return. The cost of insurance will be less and thus Policy values will be
greater for female Insureds of comparable risk status. Some states require that
the Policies contain tables based upon unisex rates.
Gross investment returns of 0%, 6% and 12% are assumed to be level for all
years shown. The values would be different if the rates of return averaged 0%,
6% and 12% over the period of years but fluctuated above and below those
averages during individual years.
The values shown reflect the fact that the net investment return of the
Sub-Accounts is lower than the gross investment return on the assets held in the
Funds because of the charges levied against the Sub-Accounts. The daily
investment advisory fee is assumed to be equivalent to an annual rate of 0.69%
of the net assets of the Funds of the Trust (which is the average of the
investment advisory fees assessed the Trust in 1995 weighted by Sub-Account
value as of 12/31/95). The values also assume that each Fund of the Trust will
incur expenses annually which are assumed to be 0.06% of the average net assets
of the Fund. This is the average in 1995 weighted by Sub-Account value as of
12/31/95. The Sub-Accounts will be assessed for mortality and expense risks at a
guaranteed annual rate not to exceed 0.90% (the current annual rate is 0.60%) of
the average daily net assets of the Sub-Account and for administrative expenses
at an annual rate of 0.15% of the average daily net assets of the Sub-Account.
After taking these expenses and charges into consideration, the illustrated
gross annual investment rates of 0%, 6% and 12% are equivalent to net rates of
- -1.49%, 4.42% and 10.33%.
The Company deducts an insurance risk premium for a Policy Month from the
Policy Account values. The insurance risk premium rate is based on the sex
(where permitted by state law), attained age and rate class of the Insured.
Upon request, the Company will provide a comparable illustration based upon
the attained age, sex (where permitted by state law) and rate class of the
proposed Insured and for the face amount or premium requested.

PART II
UNDERTAKINGS TO FILE REPORTS
Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, the undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file
with the Securities and Exchange Commission such supplementary and periodic
information, documents, and reports as may be prescribed by any rule or
regulation of the Commission theretofore or hereafter duly adopted pursuant to
authority conferred in that section.
REPRESENTATION
Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America ("Company") hereby represents
that the fees and charges deducted under the Policy described in the Prospectus,
in the aggregate, are reasonable in relation to the services rendered, the
expenses to be incurred and the risks assumed by the Company.
INDEMNIFICATION
The Bylaws of the Company provide that:
Each person (and the heirs, executors, and administrators of such person) made
or threatened to be made a party to any action, civil or criminal, by reason
of being or having been a director, officer, or employee of the corporation (or
by reason of serving any other organization at the request of the corporation)
shall be indemnified to the extent permitted by the laws of the State of
Minnesota, and in the manner prescribed therin.
Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted for directors and officers or controlling persons of the
Company pursuant to the foregoing, or otherwise, the Company has been advised
that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the Policies issued
by the Variable Account, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel
the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT RIDER
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RIDER BENEFIT
This rider provides a guarantee that this policy will not terminate due to the
policy's Net Cash Value being insufficient to cover the monthly deduction due
on a monthly anniversary date, while the Death Benefit Guarantee is in effect.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MONTHLY RIDER CHARGE
While this rider is in effect the Guaranteed Death Benefit Rider Charge shown on
the Coverage Page will be deducted monthly.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RIDER TERMINATION DATE
The Death Benefit Guarantee and this rider will terminate on the earliest of the
following dates:
- - the date the Owner surrenders the policy for its Net Cash Value; or
- - the date of the Insured's death; or
- - the Maturity Date if Death Benefit Option A was always in effect under the
policy; or
- - the Policy Anniversary following the Insured's 80th birthday if Death Benefit
Option B was ever in effect; or
- - the monthly anniversary date next following our receipt of the Owner's written
request to cancel this rider; or
- - the end of a 61 day grace period following the monthly anniversary date on
which the policy fails to satisfy either the Cumulative Premium Test or the
Fund Value Test.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CUMULATIVE PREMIUM TEST
We will apply the Cumulative Premium Test to the policy at the beginning of each
Policy Month. The policy will satisfy the test if (a) is greater than (b),
where:
(a) is the sum of all premiums received, less any Partial Surrenders and any
Policy Debt; and
(b) is the sum of the Total Guaranteed Death Benefit Premiums due since the
Issue Date.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TOTAL GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT PREMIUM
The Total Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium is the amount due at the beginning of
each Policy Month to meet the Cumulative Premium Test. If the Death Benefit
Guarantee is not in effect, premium payments in addition to the Total Guaranteed
Death Benefit Premium may be required to keep this policy in force. The Total
Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium is shown on the Coverage Page. The Total
Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium may change if:
- - the Face Amount of the policy is increased or decreased;
- - an Additional Benefit is added, changed, or terminated;
- - the Insured's rate class changes; or
- - a temporary additional rate is added or terminated.
We will inform the Owner of any change in the Total Guaranteed Death Benefit
Premium.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUND VALUE TEST
We will apply the Fund Value Test if the policy does not satisfy the Cumulative
Premium Test, and the policy has reached the Policy Anniversary following the
Insured's 60th birthday. The policy will satisfy the Fund Value Test if the Net
Cash Value is equal to or greater than the Total Face Amount multiplied by the
Age Factor from the table below.

GRACE PERIOD
We will notify the Owner if the policy fails to satisfy both the Cumulative
Premium Test and the Fund Value Test. We will allow a 61-day grace period from
the monthly anniversary date on which neither test is satisfied for a premium to
be paid to keep the Death Benefit Guarantee in effect. The required payment will
be equal to the amount needed to satisfy the Cumulative Premium Test or the Fund
Value Test, plus the Total Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium for the next two
Policy Months. If we do not receive the required payment by the end of the
61-day grace period, the Death Benefit Guarantee and this rider will terminate.
Once the Death Benefit Guarantee terminates, it cannot be reinstated.

with the provisions of this rider.

ACCELERATED BENEFIT RIDER
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTICE: DEATH BENEFITS, CASH VALUES, IF ANY, AND LOAN VALUES, IF ANY WILL BE
REDUCED IF A LIVING BENEFIT IS PAID, as described in the EFFECT ON THE POLICIES
provision on page 3. There is no premium or charge for this rider, unless the
Owner elects the Living Benefit.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TAX CONSEQUENCES: THE RECEIPT OF A LIVING BENEFIT UNDER THIS RIDER MAY BE
TAXABLE. BEFORE ELECTING A LIVING BENEFIT, YOU SHOULD SEEK ADVICE OF YOUR
PERSONAL TAX ADVISOR.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE BENEFIT WE WILL PAY
We will pay the Owner the Living Benefit in one sum after we receive and approve
an election for the Living Benefit.
Only one Living Benefit may be paid under this rider.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE LIVING BENEFIT
The LIVING BENEFIT equals the Eligible Proceeds, multiplied by the Living
Benefit Percentage. This amount is then discounted to reflect interest and our
assumptions about the reduced life expectancy of the Insured.
The interest rate we will use to calculate the Living Benefit will not be higher
than the greater of:
- - the current yield on 90-day U.S. Treasury bills; or
- - the current maximum statutory adjustable policy loan interest rate.
A lower interest rate may be used on portions of the Eligible Proceeds
associated with other policies or riders which have either fixed loan interest
rates or lower maximum loan interest rates.
The calculation of the Living Benefit will also take into consideration the
following, if they apply:
- - expected future premiums;
- - future dividends at the scale in effect when the Owner elects a Living
Benefit; and
- - a processing charge, not to exceed the lesser of $1,000 or 2% of the Living
Benefit.
The Living Benefit will not be less than the proportional share of the Net Cash
Value of the policies which comprise the Qualified Benefit, multiplied by the
Living Benefit Percentage.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUALIFIED BENEFIT
The QUALIFIED BENEFIT is an amount based upon the amount of current Death
Benefit on the Insured under the policy, and includes the Owner's other current
life insurance coverage on the insured with the Company, if any. The Qualified
Benefit is reduced by the amount of any debt associated with the included
policies.
The Qualified Benefit under this rider includes:
- - the current Death Benefit on the life of the Insured under the policy;
- - the current Death Benefit on the life of the Insured under other participating
or non-participating whole life or endowment insurance, universal
life insurance, or reduced paid-up insurance policies with the Company;
- - the current Death Benefit on the life of the Insured under a term rider
attached to this policy or another life insurance policy insured with
the Company, with a term period ending more than five years from the date the
Living Benefit is elected, or which has a conversion right as of the election
date;
- - the current Death Benefit on the life of the insured under a term policy
insured with the Company with a term period ending more than five years from
the date of election, or which has a conversion right as of the date the
election is made; and
- - any current Death Benefit on the Life of the Insured under an extended term
insurance policy insured with the Company with a term period extending
beyond five years of the date the Living Benefit is elected.
The Qualified Benefit under this rider does not include:
- - any accidental death benefit coverage on the Insured;
- - any extended term insurance on the Insured with a term period ending within
five years of the date the Living Benefit is elected;
- - any term policy or term rider on the Life of the Insured with a term period
ending within five years of the date the Living Benefit is elected, and
which has no conversion right as of the date the election is made;
- - any life insurance coverage on the Insured that is owned by someone other than
the Owner; or
- - any policy or rider that is assigned to us as security for a loan.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ELIGIBLE PROCEEDS
The ELIGIBLE PROCEEDS of the policy equals all or a portion of the Qualified
Benefit, under the following restrictions:
- - the Eligible Proceeds may not exceed $500,000; and
- - the Eligible Proceeds may not exceed 75% of the Qualified Benefit.
The Owner may choose which portions of policies and riders that comprise the
Qualified Benefit will contribute toward the Eligible Proceeds, subject to the
above restrictions on amounts.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TERMINAL ILLNESS
TERMINAL ILLNESS means a medical condition of the Insured, resulting from bodily
injury, disease, or both:
- - which has been diagnosed by a licensed and qualified medical doctor;
- - which diagnosis is supported by clinical, radiological, or laboratory evidence
or other evidence which is satisfactory to us;
- - which a licensed and qualified medical doctor certifies is expected to result
in death within 12 months; and
- - which is confirmed by a second opinion of a licensed and qualified medical
doctor, based upon that doctor's examination of the Insured.
The doctor selected to provide a second opinion must be acceptable to both the
Owner and us. Any second opinion will be conclusive as to whether the
Insured suffers from a Terminal Illness. We may, at our discretion, waive the
requirement of a second opinion.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW TO SELECT THE LIVING BENEFIT
Subject to the terms of this rider, the Owner may elect by written request
during the lifetime of the Insured to exchange a portion of the Eligible
Proceeds for a Living Benefit if the Insured is suffering from a Terminal
Illness. The portion of the Eligible Proceeds elected is the Living Benefit
Percentage. It cannot be less than 25%.
If more than one policy or term rider is included in the Qualified Benefit, the
Owner may choose the order in which the current Death Benefits of individual
policies and term riders are applied toward the Eligible Proceeds. A policy may
not be completely applied to the Eligible Proceeds if any attached term rider on
the Insured is not also completely applied.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EFFECT ON THE POLICIES
The total amount of coverage under the policies and riders included in the
Qualified Benefit is reduced by the amount of Eligible Proceeds exchanged. After
such exchange, each policy or term rider included, all or in part, in the
Qualified Benefit may be completely or partially exchanged. Any coverage not
included in the amount of Eligible Proceeds will not be affected.
If a policy is completely exchanged, then:
- - all other coverage under that policy on the life of the Insured will
terminate; and
- - any other coverage under that policy that is on the life of someone other than
the Insured will be treated in the same way as if the Insured had died.
If a term rider is completely exchanged, then that term rider will terminate.
If a policy or term rider is partially exchanged, then all values and amounts of
insurance for coverage included as part of the Eligible Proceeds will be reduced
in the same proportion as the amount of Eligible Proceeds exchanged bears to the
portion of the Qualified Benefit that is attributable to that policy or rider.
The new premiums will be those which would apply if the policy or rider had been
originally issued for the reduced amount.
If, on the date that we approve the Living Benefit, a policy or term rider
includes a disability benefit which waives a specified premium or benefit amount
or the monthly deductions due on the policy or rider, we will consider the
Insured to have met the definition of total disability under that benefit,
effective on the date we approve the Living Benefit.
When we receive a Living Benefit election from the Owner, we will send to the
Owner and to any irrevocable beneficiary a statement showing the effect, if any,
that the payment of the Living Benefit will have on each policy or rider Cash
Value, Policy Account, Death Benefit, premiums, policy loans, or other
values defined in that policy or rider. This will be done for each policy or
term rider that is included in the definition of Qualified Benefit.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONDITIONS
An election under this rider is subject to the following conditions:
- - if this policy is in force as extended term insurance, the term period must
extend at least five years from the date the election is made;
- - this policy must not be assigned except to us as security for a loan;
- - any irrevocable beneficiary must consent in writing at the time the Owner
elects to receive the Living Benefit;
- - if the Owner is required by law to use this rider to meet the claims of
creditors, whether in bankruptcy or otherwise, the Owner is not eligible
to elect the Living Benefit; and
- - if the Owner is required by a government agency to use this rider in order to
apply for, obtain, or keep a government benefit or entitlement, the Owner is
not eligible to elect the Living Benefit.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NON-PARTICIPATING
This rider is non-participating.

This rider will terminate on the earliest to occur of the following:
- - the date the policy terminates; or

THE BENEFIT WE WILL PAY
If the Insured dies while this rider is in force, we will pay the Beneficiary
the benefit amount shown for this rider on the Coverage Page of the policy when
we receive proof of the death. Payment of this benefit is subject to the terms
of this rider.
This benefit will be in addition to any other benefits payable under the policy.
WHEN THIS RIDER TERMINATES
This rider terminates upon the earliest of:
- - the date this rider is exchanged for a whole life, universal life, variable
universal life or endowment insurance policy on the life of the Insured; or
- - the date this rider is automatically exchanged for a face amount increase on
the base policy; or
- - the date the policy terminates.
The Owner may cancel this rider on any monthly anniversary date by sending us a
written request accompanied by the policy.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RIGHT TO EXCHANGE FOR WHOLE LIFE, UNIVERSAL LIFE, VARIABLE UNIVERSAL LIFE OR
ENDOWMENT INSURANCE
This rider may be exchanged for a whole life, universal life, variable universal
life or endowment insurance policy on the life of the Insured without evidence
of insurability, subject to the following terms.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
REQUIREMENTS TO EXCHANGE THE INSURANCE UNDER THIS RIDER
The exchange may be made any time within ten years from the Issue Date of this
rider.
The policy and this rider must be in effect on the date of the exchange, but
they may not be in effect under the Grace Period provision. We must receive a
written request for the exchange and the first premium for the new policy within
31 days of the date of the exchange. The Insured must be alive on both the day
the request is made and the day the exchange takes effect. Coverage under this
rider stops when the exchange is made.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ABOUT THE NEW POLICY
The new policy may be any whole life, universal life, variable universal life or
endowment insurance policy that we issue at the time of the exchange. At least
one plan of insurance will be available under this right of exchange. The new
policy may be for any amount up to the benefit amount for this rider. But we are
not required to issue a new policy if the face amount would be less than our
minimum issue amount for the plan selected.
The Issue Date of the new policy will be the date the exchange is made. The
issue age under the new policy will be based on the Insured's age at that time.
The risk classification for the new policy will be the same as shown for this
rider on the Coverage Page of this policy. Premiums for the new policy will be
based on premium rates we are using when the exchange is made.
The periods specified for applying the SUICIDE and LIMITATIONS ON CONTESTING THE
POLICY provisions in the new policy will run from the Issue Date of this rider.
If we agree, a disability benefit rider and an accidental death benefit rider
can be added to the new policy. Adding these riders will be subject to our
requirements at the time of the exchange.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EARLIER ISSUE DATE
An Issue Date that is earlier than the date the exchange is made can be selected
for the new policy. But the date chosen cannot be earlier than this rider's
Issue Date. Any exchange on this basis is subject to our approval and the
requirements and payment we determine.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AUTOMATIC EXCHANGE TO FACE AMOUNT INCREASE
On the 10th anniversary of the Issue Date of this rider, the coverage in force
under this rider will automatically be exchanged for a face amount increase on
the base policy. There will be no additional Monthly Administrative Charge nor
any additional Surrender Charge associated with this exchange.
The periods specified for applying the Suicide and Limitations on Contesting the
Policy provisions applicable to the increase will run from the Issue Date of
this rider.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OTHER PROVISIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MONTHLY DEDUCTIONS
To determine the monthly deduction for each month of coverage provided under
this rider we multiply:
- - the benefit amount for this rider shown on the Coverage Page of the policy; by
- - the cost of insurance rate for additional term insurance coverage for that
rider month.
The cost of insurance rate for additional term insurance coverage for a rider
month equals the sum of:
- - the standard cost of insurance rate for that month from the table of standard
cost of insurance rates for additional term insurance coverage declared by
our Board of Directors (the declared standard cost of insurance rate for
additional term insurance coverage); and
- - an appropriate additional rate for any extra mortality risk classification
that applies for this rider as shown on the Coverage Page of the policy.
The additional rate for any rider month for an extra mortality risk
classification equals the amount of extra mortality that the risk classification
represents for that month.
The total cost of insurance rate for additional term insurance coverage for a
rider month will be uniform for all insurerds:
- - who are the same issue age, sex and risk classification; and
- - whose riders are in the same face amount band and have been in force the same
length of time.
We may change the declared standard cost of insurance rates for additional term
insurance coverage from time to time based on our expectations as to future
mortality experience. Any change we make will apply to all riders in the same
risk classification.
The declared standard cost of insurance rates for additional term insurance
coverage for each rider month will not be more than the amounts shown in the
Table of Guaranteed Maximum Standard Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates in the
policy. When the table is used for this rider, the Insured's attained age is
the age of the beginning of each rider year.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXPENSE CHARGE FOR TERM RIDER ADDITIONS
When this rider is added to the policy after the Issue Date of the policy,
an expense charge of $15.00 per month for the twelve months following the
addition will be added to the monthly deduction defined above. This same
expense charge will apply for the twelve months following any increase in the
benefit amount of the Term Rider.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUICIDE
If the Insured commits suicide, while sane or insane, within two years from the
Issue Date of this rider, the only benefit we will pay under this rider will be
the total premiums paid for the rider. If the law of the state where this rider
is delivered provides a shorter period, that law will govern.
We will pay this benefit in one sum to the Beneficiary. This rider will then
terminate.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DISABILITY BENEFIT RIDER
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
During the Insured's total disability, we will credit payments to the Policy
Account subject to the terms of this rider. We will credit these payments on
each monthly anniversary date. The payments will be allocated to the
Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account and to the Fixed Account according to
the premium allocation percentages then in effect.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MEANING OF TOTAL DISABILITY
For a disability to be a total disability, it must:
- - result from bodily injury or disease;
- - start while this rider is in effect;
- - continue for at least 4 months; and
- - prevent the Insured from working at an occupation for compensation or profit.
For the first 24 months of disability, OCCUPATION means the Insured's occupation
when disability started. Afterwards, it is any occupation for which he or she is
reasonably suited by education, training or experience.
The phrase PREVENT THE INSURED FROM WORKING means the inability of the insured
to perform the substantial and material duties of an occupation.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PERMANENT LOSS
The following are considered total disabilities as soon as they happen. They
need not prevent the Insured from working.
- - permanent and total loss of sight of both eyes.
- - permanent and total loss of use of both hands or both feet.
- - permanent and total loss of use of one hand and one foot.
- - permanent and total loss of sight of one eye and use of either one hand or one
foot.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW TO MAKE A CLAIM FOR BENEFITS
Send written notice of the Insured's total disability to our ValueLife Service
Center. Before any payment is credited, proof of total disability must be
received at our ValueLife Service Center:
- - while the policy and this rider are in effect;
- - during the Insured's lifetime;
- - while the total disability continues; and
- - before the policy anniversary on or following the Insured's 60th birthday.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE PAYMENT AMOUNT WE WILL CREDIT
The monthly Payment Amount we will credit under this rider is shown on the
Coverage Page of the policy. We will credit the Monthly Payment Amount on
each monthly anniversary date during the Insured's total disability.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHEN WE WILL START TO CREDIT PAYMENTS
We will start to credit payments when we receive proof of the Insured's total
disability. The payments will be credited from the next monthly anniversary date
after the Insured's total disability started.
But we will not credit payments for more than 4 months prior to the date we
receive notice of any total disability.
If the Insured suffers a PERMANENT LOSS, we will credit the Monthly Payment
Amount beginning the next monthly anniversary date after the total disability
started.
If a disability must continue for at least 4 months to be considered a total
disability, payments for the first 4 months of the disability will be credited
at the end of that period. Afterwards, payments will be credited monthly.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW LONG WE WILL CREDIT PAYMENTS
As long as the total disability continues, we will credit payments until the
date the policy terminates.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISABILITIES FOR WHICH WE WILL NOT CREDIT PAYMENTS
We will not credit payments if disability results from:
- - a bodily injury received or a disease contracted while this rider is not in
effect; or
- - intentionally self-inflicted injuries; or
- - descent from any aircraft while in flight; or
- - any act or incident of war, declared or not.
However, no claims for disability (as defined in this rider) commencing after
two years from the Issue Date of this rider will be reduced or denied on the
ground that a disease or physical condition has existed prior to the effective
date of this rider.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RECOVERY FROM DISABILITY
Before crediting any payment, we may require proof that the Insured is still
disabled. If proof is not given when requested, no further payments will be
credited. After 2 full years of disability, we will not require proof more often
than once a year.
No further payments will be credited if the insured returns to work at an
occupation, unless he or she has suffered one of the losses listed under
PERMANENT LOSS above.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHEN THIS RIDER TERMINATES
This rider terminates upon the earlier of:
- - the policy anniversary on or following the Insured's 60th birthday; or
- - the date the policy terminates.
The Owner may terminate this rider on any monthly anniversary date by making a
written request accompanied by the policy. After this rider terminates, we will
still consider claims for any disability that starts before this rider
terminates. But we must receive notice of any such disability within 5 months
after the rider terminates.
