                                  DEFINITIONS

THIS PROSPECTUS CONTAINS SOME SPECIALIZED TERMS. WE HAVE DEFINED SPECIALIZED
TERMS ON THE PAGE WHERE THEY FIRST APPEAR. THE DEFINITIONS WILL APPEAR ON THE
PAGE IN A BOX LIKE THIS ONE.

PURPOSE OF THE CONTRACT

     The Contract is an Individual Flexible Payment Variable Annuity Contract
(the "Contract" or "Contracts").

     The Contract is designed to allow an owner to make purchase payments to the
Company under the Contract. Those purchase payments are allocated at the owner's
choice among the subaccounts of MONY America Variable Account A and the
Guaranteed Interest Account with Market Value Adjustment. Those purchase
payments can accumulate for a period of time and create fund values for the
owner. The owner can choose the length of time that such purchase payments may
accumulate. The owner may choose at some point in the future to receive annuity
benefits based upon those accumulated fund values.

     An owner may use the Contract's design to accumulate fund values for
various purposes including retirement or to supplement other retirement
programs. Some of these retirement programs (the "Qualified Plans") may qualify
for federal income tax advantages available under Sections 401, 403 (other than
Section 403(b)), 408, 408A and 457 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code").

QUALIFIED PLANS -- Retirement plans that receive favorable tax treatment under
Section 401, 403, 408 or 457 of the Internal Revenue Code.

QUALIFIED CONTRACTS -- Contracts issued under Qualified Plans.

     The Contract is also designed to allow the owner to request payments of
part or all of the accumulated fund values before the owner begins to receive
annuity benefits. This payment may result in the imposition of a surrender
charge and a market value adjustment. The market value adjustment will not apply
to contracts issued in certain states. It may also be subject to income and
other taxes.

PURCHASE PAYMENTS AND FUND VALUES

     The purchase payments you make for the Contract are received by the
Company. Currently those purchase payments are not subject to taxes imposed by
the United States Government or any state or local government.

     You may allocate your purchase payments to one or more of the subaccounts
of MONY America Variable Account A that are available under the Contract and/or
to the Guaranteed Interest Account with

                                        1
<PAGE>   18

Market Value Adjustment. The purchase payments you allocate among the various
subaccounts of MONY America Variable Account A may increase or decrease in value
on any day depending on the investment experience of the subaccounts you select.
There is no guarantee that the value of the purchase payments you allocate to
any of the subaccounts of MONY America Variable Account A will increase or that
the purchase payments you make will not lose value.

     Purchase payments you allocate to the Guaranteed Interest Account will be
credited with interest at a rate determined by the Company. That rate will not
be less than 3.5%.

MONY AMERICA VARIABLE ACCOUNT A

     MONY America Variable Account A is a separate investment account of MONY
Life Insurance Company of America (the "Company"). MONY America Variable Account
A's assets are owned by the Company, but are not chargeable with liabilities
arising from any other business the Company conducts.

     The subaccounts of MONY America Variable Account A invest in shares of MONY
Series Fund, Inc. and The Enterprise Accumulation Trust (collectively called the
"Funds") at their net asset value. (See "The Funds" at page   ). Owners bear the
entire investment risk for all amounts allocated to MONY America Variable
Account A subaccounts.

OWNER -- The person so designated in the application.  If a Contract has been
absolutely assigned, the assignee becomes the Owner. A collateral assignee is
not the Owner.

PURCHASE PAYMENT (PAYMENT) -- An amount paid to the Company by the Owner or on
the Owner's behalf as consideration for the benefits provided by the Contract.

GUARANTEED INTEREST ACCOUNT WITH MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT

     The Guaranteed Interest Account is part of the Company's general account.
It consists of all the Company's assets other than assets allocated to
segregated investment accounts of the Company. Net Purchase Payments allocated
to the Guaranteed Interest Account will be credited with interest at rates
guaranteed by the Company for specified periods. (See "Guaranteed Interest
Account" at page   .)

MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT

     A market value adjustment will be imposed on transfers or surrenders
(partial or full) from the Guaranteed Interest Account in most states. A market
value adjustment will not be imposed on contracts issued in the states of
Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South
Carolina, Texas and Washington. The adjustment can be either a positive or
negative adjustment. No adjustment is made for the amount withdrawn or
transferred within 30 days before the end of the accumulation period, nor to
benefits paid as a result of the death of the Owner. The Guaranteed Interest
Account and its market value adjustment feature are described in a separate
prospectus which accompanies this prospectus.

FUND VALUE -- The aggregate dollar value as of any Business Day of all amounts
accumulated under each of the subaccounts, the Guaranteed Interest Account, and
the Loan Account of the Contract. If the term Fund Value is preceded or followed
by the terms subaccount(s), the Guaranteed Interest Account, and the Loan
Account, or any one or more of those terms, Fund Value means only the Fund Value
of the subaccount, the Guaranteed Interest Account or the Loan Account, as the
context requires.

                                        2
<PAGE>   19

BUSINESS DAY -- Each day that the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading.

MINIMUM PURCHASE PAYMENTS

     The minimum purchase payment for individuals varies depending upon the
purchaser of the contract and the method of paying the purchase payments. See
"Payment and Allocation of Payment" on page 21.

     Additional purchase payments of at least $100 may be made at any time.
However, for certain automatic payment plans, the smallest additional payment is
$50. (See "Issuance of the Contract" at page 21.) The Company may change any of
these requirements in the future.

TRANSFER OF FUND VALUES

     You may transfer fund value among the subaccounts and to or from the
Guaranteed Interest Account. Transfers from the Guaranteed Interest Account may
be subject to a Market Value Adjustment for contracts issued in certain states.
Transfers may be made by telephone if the proper form has been completed,
signed, and received by the Company at its Syracuse Operations Center. See
"Transfers", page 26.

CONTRACT LOANS

     If your contract permits, you may borrow up to 50% of your Contract's fund
value from the Company. Your contract will be the only security required for the
loan. Contracts issued to Qualified Plans are generally the only Contracts which
permit loans. An amount equal to the amount of the loan is transferred to the
loan account as security for the loan. The loan account is part of the Company's
general account.

     We will charge you interest on the amount borrowed. If you do not pay the
interest when due, the amount due will be borrowed from the Contract's fund
value.

SURRENDER

     You may surrender all or part of the Contract at any time and receive its
cash value while the annuitant is alive prior to the annuity starting date. We
may impose a surrender charge and market value adjustment (if applicable). The
amounts you receive upon surrender may be subject to income taxes. (See "Federal
Tax Status" at page 44.)

CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS

     The Contract provides for the deduction of various charges and expenses
from the fund value of the Contract. These deductions are summarized in the
table on page 31   and discussed in greater detail beginning on page 31.

NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACTS -- Contracts issued under Non-Qualified Plans.

NON-QUALIFIED PLANS -- Retirement Plans that do not receive favorable tax
treatment under Sections 401, 403, 408, or 457 of the Internal Revenue Code.

                                        3
<PAGE>   20

RIGHT TO RETURN CONTRACT PROVISION

     You have the right to examine the Contract when you receive it. You may
return the Contract for any reason within ten days from the day you receive it.
You will receive a full refund of the purchase payments received by the Company.
During the Right to Return Contract period, purchase payments will be retained
in the Company's general account and will earn interest at a rate not less than
3 1/2% per year.

DEATH BENEFIT

     If the Annuitant (and the Secondary Annuitant, if any) dies before the date
the annuity payments start, the Company will pay a death benefit to the
Beneficiary. Under certain circumstances, an Enhanced Death Benefit may be
payable. If the Annuitant dies after annuity payments start, no death benefit is
payable except as may be payable under the settlement option selected. (See
"Death Benefit" at page   and "Enhanced Death Benefit" at page 29.)

ANNUITANT -- The person upon whose continuation of life any annuity payment
depends and to whom annuity payments are made.

SECONDARY ANNUITANT -- The party designated by the Owner to become the
Annuitant, subject to certain conditions, on the death of the Annuitant.

BENEFICIARY -- The party entitled to receive benefits payable at the death of
the Annuitant or (if applicable) the Secondary Annuitant.

* The Surrender Charge percentage, which reduces to zero as shown in the table
  on page 34, is determined by the Contract Year in which the surrender occurs.

     The Surrender Charge may be reduced under certain circumstances which
include reduction in order to guarantee that certain amounts may be received
free of surrender charge. See "Charges against Fund Value -- Free Partial
Surrender Amount" at page 34.
- ---------------
  ** The Annual Contract Charge is currently $0. However, the Company may in the
     future change the amount of the charge to an amount not exceeding $50 per
     contract year (except for contracts issued in the states of Maryland,
     Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina,
     Texas and Washington where the charge may not exceed $30). See "Charges
     Against Fund Value -- Annual Contract Charge", at page 32. The Transfer
     Charge currently is $0. However,

                                        5
<PAGE>   22

     the Company has reserved the right to impose a charge for each transfer,
     which will not exceed $25 (except for contracts issued in the states of
     South Carolina and Texas where it will not exceed $10). See "Charges
     Against Fund Value -- Transfer Charge" at page 32.

 *** The Mortality and Expense Risk charge is deducted daily equivalent to a
     current annual rate of 1.25 percent (and is guaranteed not to exceed a
     daily rate equivalent to an annual rate of 1.35%) from the value of the net
     assets of the Separate Account.

(1) Expenses also include custodial credit percentages as follows: Intermediate
    Term Bond -- .009%; Long Term Bond -- .005%; Government Securities -- .012%;
    Money Market -- .004%. Absent custodial credits, expenses would have been as
    follows: Intermediate Term Bond -- .62%, Long Term Bond -- .58%, Government
    Securities -- .64% and Money Market -- .45%.

(2) Reflects expense reimbursements in effect since May 1, 1996. Absent these
    expense reimbursements, expenses would have been as follows: Equity -- .83%;
    Small Company Value -- .85%; Managed -- .76%; International Growth 1.22%;
    and High Yield Bond -- .72%. The Equity, Small Company Value, and Managed
    Portfolio reimbursements relate to mutual fund accounting expense.

(3) Subaccounts purchasing shares of the Small Company Growth, Equity Income,
    Capital Appreciation, Growth and Income, and Growth Portfolios commenced
    operations on December 1, 1998. Absent these expense reimbursements,
    expenses would have been as follows: Small Company Growth -- 60.67%; Equity
    Income -- 66.67%; Capital Appreciation -- 63.71%; Growth and
    Income -- 60.68%; Growth -- 25.33%. The Small Company Growth, Equity Income,
    Capital Appreciation, Growth, and Income and Growth Portfolio reimbursements
    relate to operating expenses.

   + The name, but not the investment objectives or policies, of the Small Cap
     Portfolio was changed effective May 1, 1998 to the Small Company Value
     Portfolio.

  ++ The Sub-accounts corresponding to these Portfolios first became available
     for allocation in November 1998.

The purpose of the Table of Fees beginning on page 5 is to assist the Owner in
understanding the various costs and expenses that the Owner will bear, directly
or indirectly. The table reflects the expenses of the separate account as well
as of MONY Series Fund, Inc. and Enterprise Accumulation Trust. MONY Series
Fund, Inc. and the Enterprise Accumulation Trust have provided information
relating to their respective operations. The expenses borne by the Separate
Account are explained under the caption "Charges and Deductions" at page 31 of
this Prospectus. The expenses borne by the MONY Series Fund, Inc. are explained
under the caption "Management of the Fund" at page 15 of the accompanying
prospectus for MONY Series Fund, Inc. The expenses borne by the Enterprise
Accumulation Trust assume that the expense reimbursements in effect on and after
May 1, 1990 for the Equity, Small Company Value, and Managed Portfolios which
limit the total annual expenses to 1.00% of average net assets and expense
reimbursements which, on and after November 16, 1994 (commencement of
operations), limit the total annual expenses of the International Growth
Portfolio to 1.55% of average net assets and the High Yield Bond Portfolio to
 .85% of average net assets, will continue throughout the period shown and are
explained under the caption "Portfolio Management" at page 24 of the
accompanying prospectus for the Accumulation Trust. Effective on and after May
1, 1996 and at least through April 1, 1999, as a part of the increase in
investment advisory fees, the investment adviser has agreed to reimburse the
Accumulation Trust for expenses which exceed .95% of the average daily net
assets of the Equity, Small Company Value, and Managed Portfolios of the Trust.
The table does not reflect income taxes or penalty taxes which may become
payable under the Internal Revenue Code or premium or other taxes which may be
imposed under state or local laws.

                     DETAILED INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY
                      AND MONY AMERICA VARIABLE ACCOUNT A

MONY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA

     MONY Life Insurance Company of America issues the policy. In this
prospectus MONY Life Insurance Company of America is called the "Company". The
Company is a stock life insurance company organized in the State of Arizona. The
Company is currently licensed to sell life insurance and annuities in 49 states
(not including New York), the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S.
Virgin Islands.

     The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of MONY Life Insurance Company
("MONY"). The principal office of the Company is located at 1740 Broadway, New
York, New York 10019. MONY was organized as a mutual life insurance company
under the laws of the State of New York in 1842 as The Mutual Life Insurance
Company of New York. In 1998, The Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York
converted to a stock company through demutualization and was renamed MONY Life
Insurance Company. The demutualization does not have any material effect on the
Company, MONY America Variable Account A, or the Contract.

     At May 1, 1999, the rating assigned to the Company by A.M. Best Company,
Inc., an independent insurance company rating organization, was A+(Excellent).
This rating is based upon an analysis of financial condition and operating
performance through the end of 1997. The A.M. Best rating of the Company should
be considered only as bearing on the ability of the Company to meet its
obligations under the policies.

YEAR 2000 ISSUE

     The Year 2000 issue is the result of widespread use of computer programs
which use two digits (rather than four) to define a year. By use of a two-digit
field, the industry avoided the greater cost of additional mainframe capacity.
As a result, any of the Company's computer systems that have time-sensitive
software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year
2000. This could result in a major system failure or in miscalculations.

  State of Readiness

     The Company has a service agreement with MONY whereby MONY provides
services and equipment including computer and information systems to the Company
to conduct its business.

     In 1996, the Company initiated in conjunction with MONY and its affiliates
(hereafter collectively referred to as "MONY and its subsidiaries") a formal
Year 2000 Project to resolve the Year 2000 issue. The scope of the Project was
identified, and funding was established. In early 1997, MONY and its
subsidiaries retained Command Systems, Inc., and Keane, Inc. to assist the
Company in bringing the Company's computer and information systems into Year
2000 compliance. MONY and its subsidiaries' overall goal for information
technology ("IT") related items is to have business-critical hardware and
software compliant by December 31, 1998, with additional testing and enterprise
end-to-end testing occurring in 1999. MONY and its subsidiaries have also
retained Technology Resource Solutions to assist in the evaluation of Year 2000
issues affecting the Company's non-IT systems in facilities and equipment which
may contain date logic in embedded chips. MONY's overall goal is to have all
non-IT systems compliant by mid-1999.

     The scope of the Project includes:

     - ensuring the compliance of all applications, operating systems and
       hardware on mainframe, PC and LAN platforms;

     - ensuring the compliance of voice and data network software and hardware;
       addressing issues related to non-IT systems in buildings, facilities and
       equipment which may contain date logic in embedded chips; and

     - addressing the compliance of key vendors and other third parties.

                                       11
<PAGE>   28

     The phases of the Project are:

          (i) inventorying Year 2000 items and assigning priorities;

          (ii) assessing the Year 2000 compliance of items;

          (iii) remediating or replacing items that are determined not to be
     Year 2000 compliant;

          (iv) testing items for Year 2000 compliance; and

          (v) designing and implementing Year 2000 contingency and business
     continuity plans.

     To determine that all IT systems (whether internally developed or
purchased) are Year 2000 compliant, each system is tested using a standard
testing methodology which includes unit testing, baseline testing, and future
date testing. Future date testing includes critical dates near the end of 1999
and into the year 2000, including leap year testing.

     The inventory and assessment phases of the Project were completed prior to
mid 1998. At December 31, 1998, MONY and its subsidiaries' application systems
had been remediated, and current date tested. In addition, approximately 94% of
MONY and its subsidiaries' applications had been future date tested, with future
date testing for the remaining 6% scheduled for completion by mid-1999. New
implemented applications and new releases of software packages will be tested in
1999 as part of the implementation process. Approximately 87% of the operating
systems, systems software, and hardware for mainframe, PC and LAN platforms were
deemed compliant based on information supplied by vendors verbally, in writing,
or on the vendor's Internet site. Of the IT business critical items, essentially
all were compliant and tested by December 31, 1998. The remaining items will be
resolved and tested in the first quarter of 1999. Approximately 50% of non-IT
business critical items had been remediated as of December 31, 1998. Ongoing
testing for Year 2000 compliance will continue in 1999, and is expected to be
completed by mid-1999.

     As part of the Project, significant service providers, vendors, suppliers,
and other third parties that are believed to be critical to business operations
after January 1, 2000, have been identified and steps are being undertaken in an
attempt to reasonably ascertain their stage of Year 2000 readiness through
questionnaires, interviews, on-site visits, and other available means.

  Costs

     The estimated total cost of the Year 2000 Project is approximately $2.0
million. The total amount expended on the Project through December 31, 1998 was
$1.8 million. The estimated future cost of completing the Year 2000 Project is
estimated to be approximately $0.2 million. These amounts include costs
associated with the current development of contingency plans.

  Risks

     The Company believes that completed and planned modifications and
conversions of its internal systems and equipment will allow it to be Year 2000
compliant in a timely manner. There can be no assurance, however, that the
Company's internal systems or equipment or those third parties on which the
Company relies will be Year 2000 compliant in a timely manner or that the
Company's or third parties' contingency plans will mitigate the effects of any
noncompliance. The failure of the systems or equipment of the Company or third
parties (which the Company believes is the most reasonable likely worst case
scenario) could affect the distribution and sale of life insurance, annuity and
investment products and could have a material effect on the Company's financial
position and results of operations.

  Contingency Plans

     MONY and its subsidiaries have retained outside consultants to assist in
the development of Business Continuity Plans, which includes identification of
third party service providers, information systems, equipment, facilities, and
other items which are mission critical to the operation of the business. In

                                       12
<PAGE>   29

conjunction with this effort, the Company is developing a Year 2000 Contingency
Plan to address failures due to the Year 2000 problem of third parties and other
items, which are critical to the ongoing operation of the business. The
Contingency Plan includes the performance of alternate processing as well as
consideration for changing third party service providers, vendors, and suppliers
if necessary. The scheduled date for completion of the Contingency Plan is mid
1999. The Company believes that due to the pervasive nature of potential Year
2000 issues, the contingency planning process is an ongoing one that will
require further modifications as the Company obtains additional information
regarding the status of third party Year 2000 readiness.

     MONY Series Fund and the Accumulation Trust have reviewed their investment
advisers and other suppliers of services with respect to the Year 2000 issue.
MONY Series Fund and the Accumulation Trust prospectuses, which are included in
the Prospectus Portfolio, contain the results of these reviews. See MONY Series
Fund prospectus at page 15. Accumulation Trust prospectus at page 18.

     The investment objectives of each portfolio are fundamental and may not be
changed without the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of the portfolio affected. For each of the Funds a majority means the
lesser of:

          (1) 67% of the portfolio shares represented at a meeting at which more
     than 50% of the outstanding portfolio shares are represented, or

          (2) More than 50% of the outstanding portfolio shares.

     Each Owner should periodically review their allocation of purchase payments
and Cash Values among the subaccounts and the guaranteed interest account in
light of their current objectives, the current market conditions, and the risks
of investing in each of the Funds' various portfolios. A full description of the
objectives, policies, restrictions, risks and expenses for each of the Funds'
portfolios can be found in the accompanying prospectus for each of the Funds.
The prospectus for each of the Funds should be read together with this
prospectus.

PURCHASE OF PORTFOLIO SHARES BY MONY AMERICA VARIABLE ACCOUNT A

     MONY America Variable Account A will buy and redeem shares from the Funds
at net asset value. Shares will be redeemed when needed for the Company to:

     - Collect charges under the Contracts.

     - Pay Cash Value on full surrenders of the Contracts.

     - Fund partial surrenders.

     - Provide benefits under the Contracts.

     - Transfer assets from one subaccount to another or between one or more
       subaccounts of MONY America Variable Account A and the Guaranteed
       Interest Account as requested by Owners.

Any dividend or capital gain distribution received from a portfolio of a Fund
will be:

     - Reinvested immediately at net asset value in shares of that portfolio.

     - Kept as assets of the corresponding subaccount.

CASH VALUE -- The Contract's Fund Value, less (1) any applicable Surrender
Charge, (2) any outstanding loan, and (3) any applicable market value
adjustment.

     The Board of Directors of MONY Series Fund, Inc. and the Board of Trustees
of The Enterprise Accumulation Trust monitor the respective Fund for the
existence of material irreconcilable conflict between the interests of variable
annuity Owners and variable life insurance Owners. The Boards shall report any
such conflict to the boards of the Company and its affiliates. The Boards of
Directors of the Company and its affiliates have agreed to be responsible for
reporting any potential or existing conflicts to the Directors and Trustees of
each of the Funds. The Boards of Directors of the Company and its affiliates
will remedy any conflict at their own cost. The remedy may include establishing
a new registered management investment company and segregating the assets
underlying the variable annuity contracts and the variable life insurance
contracts.

GUARANTEED INTEREST ACCOUNT

     The Guaranteed Interest Account is a part of the Company's General Account
and consists of all the Company's assets other than assets allocated to
segregated investment accounts of the Company, including MONY America Variable
Account A.

     Crediting of Interest.  The entire initial purchase payment always earns
interest at a rate not less than 3.5% per year until the end of the Right to
Return Contract period. When the Right to Return Contract period ends, the
entire initial purchase payment plus interest earned is transferred to the
selected subaccounts and Guaranteed Interest Account accumulation periods.

     Any Net Purchase Payments you as Owner of the Contract allocate to the
Guaranteed Interest Account will be credited with interest at the rate declared
by the Company. The Company guarantees that the rate credited will not be less
than 3.5% (0.0094%, compounded daily). If you allocate purchase payments (or
transfer funds) to the Guaranteed Interest Account, you will choose between
accumulation periods of 3, 5, 7, or 10 years for contracts issued in most
states. The accumulation period is limited to one year for contracts issued in
the states of Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Oregon,
Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas and Washington. Before the beginning of each
calendar month, the Company will declare interest rates for each period, if
those rates will be higher than the guaranteed rate. Each interest rate declared
by the Company will be applicable for all Net Purchase Payments received or
transfers from MONY America Variable Account A completed within the period
during which it is effective. Purchase payments you allocate to the Accumulation
Period you select will receive this interest rate for the entire period. Within
45 days, but not less than 15 days before the Accumulation Period expires, we
will notify you of the new rates we are then declaring. When the period expires
you can elect an accumulation period of 3, 5, 7, or 10 years or may elect to
transfer the entire amount allocated to the expiring accumulation period to the
separate account. This election is not permitted for contracts issued in the
states of Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania,
South Carolina, Texas and Washington. If you make no election, the entire amount
allocated to the expiring accumulation period will automatically be held for an
accumulation period of the same length. If that period will extend beyond the
maturity date or if that period is no longer offered, the money will be
transferred into the Money Market subaccount.

     Surrenders.  When you as Contract Owner request Contract Fund Values from
the Guaranteed Interest Account be transferred to MONY America Variable Account
A, surrendered, loaned to you, or used to pay any charge imposed in accordance
with the Contract, you must tell the Company the source by interest rate
accumulation period of amounts you request be transferred, surrendered, loaned,
or used to pay charges.

     Market Value Adjustment.  Amounts taken from the Guaranteed Interest
Account because of partial and full surrenders or transfers from the Guaranteed
Interest Account are subject to Market Value

                                       20
<PAGE>   37

Adjustment for contracts issued in most states. This Adjustment is determined by
multiplying the amount of the surrender or transfer from each accumulation
period and interest rate by the following factor:

                         [(1 + a)/(1 + b)](n-t)/12) - 1

where

        a = rate declared at the beginning of accumulation period

        b = rate then currently declared for an accumulation period equal to the
            time remaining in the guaranteed period, plus 0.25%

        n = guaranteed period in months

        t = number of elapsed months (or portion thereof) in the guaranteed
period

     If an Accumulation Period equal to the time remaining is not issued by the
Company, the rate will be an interpolation between two available Accumulation
Periods. If two such Periods are not available, we will use the rate for the
next available Accumulation Period.

     Market Value Adjustments do not apply for partial or full surrenders or
transfers requested within 30 days of the end of the accumulation period, nor to
any benefits paid upon the death of the Annuitant. The Market Value Adjustment
does apply to benefits paid upon death of the Owner. Market Value Adjustments
also do not apply to contracts issued in certain states.

     The Guaranteed Interest Account and its Market Value Adjustment feature are
described in greater detail in a separate prospectus attached to this prospectus
for your convenience.

                     DETAILED INFORMATION ABOUT THE POLICY

     The Fund Value in MONY America Variable Account A and in the Guaranteed
Interest Account with Market Value Adjustment provide many of the benefits of
your Contract. The information in this section describes the benefits, features,
charges and major provisions of the Contract and the extent to which those
depend upon the Fund Value, particularly the Fund Value in MONY America Variable
Account A. Attached to this prospectus is a prospectus describing the Guaranteed
Interest Account with Market Value Adjustment and its various features, charges
and major provisions.

GOVERNMENT ALLOTMENT PLANS -- Payroll deduction plans used for financial
products by government employees.

Additional purchase payments of at least $100 may be made at any time. However,
for certain automatic payment plans, the smallest additional payment is $50.

     The Company reserves the right to revise its rules from time to time to
specify different minimum Purchase Payments. In addition, the prior approval of
the Company is needed before it will accept a Purchase Payment if, with that
Payment:

          (1) Cumulative Purchase Payments made under any one or more Contracts
     held by the Contract Owner, less

          (2) The amount of any prior partial surrenders and their Surrender
     Charges, exceed

          (3) $1,500,000.

     The Company reserves the right to reject an application for any reason
permitted by law.

EFFECTIVE DATE -- The date the contract begins as shown in the Contract.

     Net Purchase Payments received before the Effective Date will be held in
the Company's General Account and will be credited with interest at not less
than 3.5% per year if:

          (1) The Contract is issued by the Company, and

          (2) The Contract is accepted by the Owner.

No interest will be paid if the Contract is not issued or if it is declined by
the Owner. Net Purchase Payments will be held in the Company's General Account
if:

          (1) The application is approved,

          (2) The Contract is issued, and

          (3) The Owner accepts the Contract.

These amounts will be held in that Account pending end of the Right to Return
Contract Period. (See page 23.) Interest will be credited on amounts held in the
General Account beginning on the date the amounts are received. Amounts are
received on the day of actual receipt at the

                                       22
<PAGE>   39

Company's Operation Center. The prospective buyer will be told the reasons for
the delay, the initial Purchase Payment will be returned in full and the
application declined if:

          (1) The application is not complete when received, and

          (2) The application is not completed within 5 days.

The application will not be declined if the prospective buyer consents to the
Company's keeping the Purchase Payment until the application is completed.

  Right to Return Contract Provision

     The Owner may return the Contract within 10 days of the delivery date. The
Contract must be returned to the Company or any agent of the Company. When the
Company receives the Contract, it will be voided as if it were never in effect.
The amount to be refunded is equal to all purchase payments received by the
Company.

  Allocation of Payments and Fund Value

     Allocation of Payments.  On the application, the Owner may allocate Net
Purchase Payments to the subaccount(s) of MONY America Variable Account A or to
the Guaranteed Interest Account. Net Purchase Payments (and any interest
thereon) are held in the General Account if they are received before the end of
the Right to Return Contract Period. The Net Purchase Payments will earn
interest at a rate not less than 3.5% per year beginning on the later of:

          (1) The Effective Date of the Contract, and

          (2) The date the Payment is received at the Company's Operations
     Center.

     Net Purchase Payments will continue to earn 3.5% annual interest until the
Right to Return Contract Period expires (See "Right to Return Contract
Provision" above.) After the Right to Return Contract Period has expired, the
Contract's Fund Value will automatically be transferred to MONY America Variable
Account A subaccount(s) or to the Guaranteed Interest Account according to the
Owner's percentage allocation.

     After the Right to Return Contract Period, under a non-automatic payment
plan, if the Owner does not:

          (1) Specify the amount to be allocated among subaccounts, or

          (2) Specify the percentage to be allocated among subaccounts, or

          (3) The amount or percentage specified is incorrect or incomplete,

the Net Purchase Payments will be allocated under the Owner's most recent
instructions on record with the Company. The amount specified must not be less
than $10.00 and the percentage specified must not be less than 10% of the
Payment. For automatic payment plans, Net Purchase Payments will be allocated
according to the Owner's most recent instructions on record.

     The Owner may change the specified allocation formula for future Net
Purchase Payments at any time without charge by sending written notification to
the Company at the Operations Center. Prior allocation instructions may also be
changed by telephone subject to the rules of the Company and its right to
terminate telephone allocation. The Company reserves the right to deny any
telephone allocation request. If all telephone lines are busy (for example,
during periods of substantial market fluctuations), Owners may be unable to
request telephone allocation changes by telephone. In such cases, a Owner would
submit a written request. Any such change, whether made in writing or by
telephone, will be effective when recorded on the records of the Company, in
accordance with the requirements of state insurance departments and the
Investment Company Act of 1940. The Company has adopted rules relating to
changes of allocations by telephone which, among other things, outlines
procedures designed,

                                       23
<PAGE>   40

and which the Company believes are reasonable, to prevent unauthorized
instructions. If these procedures are followed:

          (1) The Company shall not be liable for any loss as a result of
     following fraudulent telephone instructions, and

          (2) The Owner will therefore bear the entire risk of loss due to
     fraudulent telephone instructions.

A copy of the rules and the Company's form for electing telephone allocation
privileges is available from licensed agents of the Company who are registered
representatives of MSC or by calling 1-800-487-6669. The Company's form must be
signed and received at the Company's Operations Center before telephone
allocation instructions will be accepted.

     Net Purchase Payments may be allocated in whole percentages to any number
of the available subaccounts and to the Guaranteed Interest Account. Allocations
must be in whole percentages, and no allocation may be for less than 10% of a
Net Purchase Payment. Allocation percentages must total 100%. Contracts issued
in the states of Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Oregon,
Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas and Washington must maintain a minimum fund
value balance of $2,500 in the Guaranteed Interest Account when an allocation to
said account is chosen.

     When allocated Purchase Payments are received they are credited to
subaccounts of MONY America Variable Account A in the form of Units. The number
of Units is determined by dividing the dollar amount allocated to a particular
subaccount by the unit value for that subaccount for the Business Day on which
the Purchase Payment is received.

  Calculating Unit Values for Each Subaccount

     The unit value of each subaccount on its first Business Day was set at
$10.00. The Company computes the unit value of a subaccount on any later
Business Day as follows:

          (1) Calculate the value of the shares of the portfolio belonging to
     the subaccount as of the close of business that Business Day. This
     calculation is done before giving effect to any policy transactions for
     that day, such as purchase payments or surrenders. For this purpose, the
     net asset value per share reported to the Company by the managers of the
     portfolio is used.

          (2) Add the value of any dividends or capital gains distributions
     declared and reinvested by the portfolio during the valuation period.
     Subtract from this amount a charge for taxes, if any.

          (3) Subtract a charge for the mortality and expense risk assumed by
     the Company under the policy. If the previous day was not a Business Day,
     then the charge is adjusted for the additional days between valuations.

          (4) Divide the resulting amount by the number of units held in the
     subaccount on the Business Day before the purchase or redemption of any
     units on that date.

     The unit value of these subaccounts may increase, decrease or remain the
same from Business Day to Business Day. The Unit value depends on the investment
performance of the portfolio of the Fund in which the subaccount invests and any
expenses and charges deducted from MONY America Variable Account A. The Owner
bears the entire investment risk. Owners should periodically review their
allocations of payments and values in light of market conditions and overall
financial planning requirements.

                                       24
<PAGE>   41

  Calculation of Guaranteed Interest Account Fund Value

     Net Purchase Payments to be allocated to the Guaranteed Interest Account
will be credited to the accumulation period chosen by the Contract Owner on:

          (1) The date received at the Operations Center, or

          (2) If the day Payments are received is not a Business Day, then on
     the next Business Day.

Interest will be credited daily. That part of a Net Purchase Payments allocated
to the Guaranteed Interest Account that exceeds the $250,000 limit imposed by
the Company will be returned to the Owner.

  Calculation of Fund Value

     The Contract's Fund Value will reflect:

     - The investment performance of the selected subaccount(s) of MONY America
       Variable Account A.

     - Amounts credited (including interest) to the Guaranteed Interest Account.

     - Any Net Purchase Payments.

     - Any Partial Surrenders.

     - All Contract charges (including surrender charges and market value
       adjustments) imposed.

There is no guaranteed minimum Fund Value, except to the extent Net Purchase
Payments have been allocated to the Guaranteed Interest Account. Because a
Contract's Fund Value at any future date will be dependent on a number of
variables, it cannot be predetermined.

     The Fund Value will be computed first on the Effective Date and thereafter
on each Business Day. On the Effective Date, the Contract's Fund Value will be
the Net Purchase Payments received plus any interest credited on those Payments
during the period when Net Purchase Payments are held in the General Account.
(See "Issuance of the Contract" at page 21.)

     After allocation of the amounts in the General Account to MONY America
Variable Account A or the Guaranteed Interest Account, on each Business Day, the
Contract's Fund Value will be computed as follows:

          (1) Determine the aggregate of the Fund Values attributable to the
     Contract in each of the subaccounts on the Business Day. This is done by
     multiplying the subaccount's Unit value on that date by the number of
     subaccount Units allocated to the Contract;

          (2) Add any amount credited to the Guaranteed Interest Account. This
     amount is the aggregate of all Net Purchase payments and:

               - The addition of any interest credited.

               - Addition or subtraction of any amounts transferred.

               - Subtraction of any partial surrenders.

               - Subtraction of any Contract charges, deductions, and any Market
                 Value Adjustments

          (3) Add the value attributable to any loan account;

          (4) Add any Net Purchase Payment received on that Business Day;

          (5) Subtract any partial surrender amount and its Surrender Charge
     made on that Business Day;

          (6) Subtract any Annual Contract Charge and/or transfer charge
     deductible on that Business Day.

                                       25
<PAGE>   42

     In computing the Contract's Fund Value, the number of subaccount Units
allocated to the Contracts is determined after any transfers among subaccounts
or between one or more of the subaccounts and the Guaranteed Interest Account.
Any transfer charges are also deducted. However, the computation of the
Contract's Fund Value is done before any other Contract transactions on the
Business Day, such as:

     - Receipt of Net Purchase Payments.

     - Partial Surrenders.

If a transaction would ordinarily require that the Contract's Fund Value be
computed for a day that is not a Business Day, the next following Business Day
will be used.

     Transfers.  You may transfer the value of the Contract among the
subaccounts after the Right to Return Contract Period has expired by sending a
proper written request to the Company's Operations Center. Transfers may be made
by telephone if you have proper authorization. See "Allocations of Payments and
Fund Value," page 23. Currently, there are no limitations on the number of
transfers between subaccounts.

     A transfer charge is not currently imposed on transfers. (See "Charges
Against Fund Value -- Transfer Charge" at page 32.) However, the Company
reserves the right to impose a charge which will not exceed $25 per transfer
(except for contracts issued in the states of South Carolina and Texas where it
will not exceed $10). If imposed the charge will be deducted from the first
subaccount(s) or the Guaranteed Interest Account from which the amounts are
transferred. This charge is in addition to the amount transferred. All transfers
in a single request are treated as one transfer transaction. A transfer
resulting from the first reallocation of Fund Value at the end of the Right to
Return Contract Period will not be subject to a transfer charge. Under present
law, transfers are not taxable transactions.

CONTRACT YEAR -- Any period of twelve (12) months commencing with the Effective
Date and each Contract Anniversary thereafter.

     Transfers Involving the Guaranteed Interest Account.  Transfers may be made
from the Guaranteed Interest Account at any time, but, if they are made before
the end of the 3, 5, 7, or 10 year accumulation period there will be a Market
Value Adjustment for contracts issued in most states. If the transfer request is
received within 30 days before the end of the Accumulation Period, no market
value adjustment will apply.

     Contracts issued in Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oklahoma,
Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas and Washington must maintain a minimum Fund
Value in the Guaranteed Interest Account of $2,500.

TERMINATION OF THE CONTRACT

     The Contract will remain in effect until the earlier of:

          (1) The date the Contract is surrendered in full,

          (2) The date annuity payments start,

          (3) The Contract Anniversary on which, after deduction for any Annual
     Contract Charge then due, no Fund Value in the subaccounts and the
     Guaranteed Interest Account remains in the Contract, and

          (4) The date the Death Benefit is payable under the Contract.

CONTRACT ANNIVERSARY -- An anniversary of the Effective Date of the Contract.

EFFECTIVE DATE -- The date shown as the Effective Date of the Contract.

                                   SURRENDERS

     The Owner may elect to make a surrender of all or part of the Contract's
value provided it is:

     - On or before the annuity payments start, and

     - During the lifetime of the Annuitant.

Any such election shall specify the amount of the surrender. The surrender will
be effective on the date a proper written request is received by the Company at
its Operation Center.

     The amount of the surrender may be equal to the Contract's Cash Value,
which is its Fund Value less

          (1) any applicable Surrender Charge,

          (2) any applicable Market Value Adjustment, and

          (3) any Outstanding Debt.

The Surrender may also be for a lesser amount (a "partial surrender"). Requested
partial surrenders that would leave a Fund Value of less than $1,000 are treated
and processed as a full surrender. In such case, the entire Cash Value will be
paid to the Owner. For a partial surrender, any Surrender Charge or any
applicable Market Value Adjustment will be in addition to the amount requested
by the Owner.

MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT -- An amount added to or deducted from the amount
surrendered or transferred from the Guaranteed Interest Account for Contracts
issued in certain states.

ACCUMULATION PERIOD -- Currently 3, 5, 7 and 10 years. The Period starts on the
Business Day that falls on, or next follows the date the purchase payment is
transferred into the Guaranteed Interest Account and ends on the monthly
contract anniversary immediately prior to the last day of that Period. (The
accumulation period is limited to one year for contracts issued in the states of
Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South
Carolina, Texas and Washington.)

     A surrender will result in the cancellation of Units and the withdrawal of
amounts credited to the Guaranteed Interest Account accumulation periods as
chosen by the Owner. The aggregate value of the surrender will be equal to the
dollar amount of the surrender plus, if applicable, any Surrender Charge and any
applicable Market Value Adjustment. For a partial surrender, the Company will
cancel Units of the particular subaccounts and withdraw amounts from the
Guaranteed Interest Account accumulation period under the allocation specified
by the Owner. The Unit value will be calculated as of the Business Day the
surrender request is received. Allocations may be by either amount or
percentage. Allocations by percentage must be in whole percentages (totaling
100%). At least 10% of the partial surrender must be allocated to any subaccount
designated by the Owner. The request will not be accepted if:

     - There is insufficient Fund Value in the Guaranteed Interest Account or a
       subaccount to provide for the requested allocation against it, or

     - The request is incorrect.

     Any surrender charge will be allocated against the Guaranteed Interest
Account and each subaccount in the same proportion that each allocation bears to
the total amount of the partial surrender. Contracts issued in Maryland,
Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas and
Washington must maintain a minimum Fund Value in the Guaranteed Interest Account
of $2,500.

     Any cash surrender amount will be paid in accordance with the requirements
of state insurance departments and the Investment Company Act of 1940. However,
the Company may be permitted to

                                       27
<PAGE>   44

postpone such payment under the 1940 Act. Postponement is currently permissible
only for any period during which

          (1) the New York Stock Exchange is closed other than customary weekend
     and holiday closings, or

          (2) trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted as determined
     by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or

          (3) an emergency exists as a result of which disposal of securities
     held by the Fund is not reasonable practicable or it is not reasonably
     practicable to determine the value of the net assets of the Fund.

Any cash surrender involving payment from amounts credited to the Guaranteed
Interest Account may be postponed, at the option of the Company, for up to 6
months from the date the request for a surrender or proof of death is received
by the Company. Surrenders involving payment from the Guaranteed Interest
Account may in certain circumstances and in certain states also be subject to a
Market Value Adjustment, in addition to a surrender charge. The Owner may elect
to have the amount of a surrender settled under one of the Settlement Options of
the Contract. (See "Annuity Provisions" at page   .)

     Contracts offered by this prospectus may be issued in connection with
retirement plans meeting the requirements of certain sections of the Internal
Revenue Code. Owners should refer to the terms of their particular retirement
plan for any limitations or restrictions on cash surrenders.

     The tax results of a cash surrender should be carefully considered. (See
"Federal Tax Status" at page 44.)

                                     LOANS

     Qualified Contracts issued under an Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k)
plan will have a loan provision (except in the case of contracts issued in
Vermont). All of the following conditions apply in order for the amount to be
considered a loan, rather than a (taxable) partial surrender:

     - The term of the loan must be 5 years or less.

     - Repayments are required at least quarterly and must be substantially
       level.

     - The loan amount is limited to certain dollar amounts as specified by the
       IRS.

     The Owner (Plan Trustee) must certify that these conditions are satisfied.

     In any event, the maximum outstanding loan on a contract is 50% of the Fund
Value of the subaccounts and/or the Guaranteed Interest Account. Loans are not
permitted before the end of the Right to Return Period. In requesting a loan,
the Contract Owner must specify the subaccounts from which Fund Value equal to
the amount of the loan requested will be taken. Loans from the Guaranteed
Interest Account are not taken until Fund Value in the subaccounts is exhausted.
If in order to provide the Contract Owner with the amount of the Loan requested,
Fund Values must be taken from the Guaranteed Interest Account, then the
Contract Owner must specify the Accumulation Periods from which Fund Values
equal to such amount will be taken. If the Contract Owner fails to specify
subaccounts and Accumulation Periods, the request for a loan will be returned to
a Contract Owner.

     Values are transferred to a loan account that earns interest at an annual
rate of 3.5%. The annual loan interest rate charged will be 6%.

     Loan repayments must be specifically earmarked as loan repayment and will
be allocated to the subaccounts and/or the Guaranteed Interest Account using the
most recent payment allocation on record.

                                 DEATH BENEFIT

DEATH BENEFIT PROVIDED BY THE CONTRACT

     The Company will pay a Death Benefit to the Beneficiary if:

     - The Annuitant dies; and

     - The death occurs before the annuity payments start.

     The amount of the Death Benefit will be the greater of

          (1) The Fund Value less any Outstanding Debt on the date of the
     Annuitant's death;

          (2) The Purchase Payments paid, less any partial surrenders and their
     Surrender Charges; and

          (3) The Enhanced Death Benefit, if any.

If there are funds allocated to the Guaranteed Interest Account at the time of
death, any applicable market value adjustment will be waived. If the death of
the Annuitant occurs on or after the annuity payments start, no Death Benefit
will be payable except as may be provided under the Settlement Option elected.

ENHANCED DEATH BENEFIT

     Your Contract provides for an enhanced death benefit.

     On the 5th Contract anniversary and each subsequent 5th Contract
anniversary prior to the Annuitant's 71st birthday (prior to the first 5th
anniversary for issue ages greater than 65), the Guaranteed Minimum Death
Benefit may be increased. If the Fund Value is greater than the current
Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit, a new the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit is
equal to:

          1.  the Fund Value on the date the new Guaranteed Minimum Death
     Benefit is to be calculated;

          2.  the current Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit proportionately
     reduced by any partial surrenders including surrender charges and any
     applicable market value adjustments assessed since the last recalculation
     of the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit

          3.  In no event will the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit exceed 200%
     of the total purchase payments made, reduced proportionately for:

             - Each partial surrender (including surrender charges and
               applicable market value adjustments, if applicable), less

             - Any Outstanding Debt.

     The proportionate reduction for each partial surrender will be equal to:

          (1) The amount of that partial surrender (including any surrender
     charges and applicable market value adjustment, if applicable, assessed),
     divided by

          (2) The Fund Value immediately before that partial surrender,
     multiplied by,

          (3) The enhanced death benefit immediately before the surrender.

     All subaccounts are eligible for Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit coverage.

     The cost of this enhancement is reflected in the mortality and expense risk
charge. Once the last value is set (prior to the Annuitant's 71st birthday or on
the first 5th anniversary if the Contract is purchased after age 65), it will
not be recalculated.

     All other basic death benefits as described in this prospectus continue to
apply. The largest death benefit under any of these provisions will be paid.

                                       29
<PAGE>   46

ELECTION AND EFFECTIVE DATE OF ELECTION

     The Owner may elect to have the Death Benefit of the Contract applied under
one of four Settlement Options to effect an annuity for the Beneficiary as payee
after the death of the Annuitant. The election must take place:

     - During the lifetime of the Annuitant, and

     - Before the annuity payments start.

If no election of a Settlement Option for the Death Benefit is in effect on the
date when proceeds become payable, the Beneficiary may elect

          (1) to receive the Death Benefit in the form of a cash payment; or

          (2) to have the Death Benefit applied under one of the Settlement
     Options.

(See "Settlement Options" at page 36.) If an election by the payee is not
received by the Company within one month following the date proceeds become
payable, the payee will be considered to have elected a cash payment. Either
election described above may be made by filing a written election with the
Company in such form as it may require. Any proper election of a method of
settlement of the Death Benefit by the Owner will become effective on the date
it is signed. However, any election will be subject to any payment made or
action taken by the Company before receipt of the notice at the Company's
Operation Center.

     Settlement option availability may be restricted by the terms of any
applicable retirement plan and any applicable legislation for any limitations or
restrictions on the election of a method of settlement and payment of the Death
Benefit.

PAYMENT OF DEATH BENEFIT

     If the Death Benefit is to be paid in cash to the Beneficiary, payment will
be made within seven (7) days of the date

     - the election becomes effective, or

     - the election is considered to become effective, and

     - due proof of death is received.

The Company may be permitted to postpone such payment under the 1940 Act. If the
death benefit is to be paid in one sum to the Successor Beneficiary, or to the
estate of the deceased Annuitant, payment will be made within seven (7) days of
the date due proof of the death of the Annuitant and the Beneficiary is received
by the Company.

</TABLE>

The following provides additional details of the charges and deductions under
the Contract.

DEDUCTIONS FROM PURCHASE PAYMENTS

     Deductions may be made from purchase payments for premium or similar taxes
prior to allocation of any net purchase payment among the subaccounts.
Currently, the Company makes no deduction, but may do so with respect to future
payments. If the Company is going to make deductions for such tax from future
purchase payments, it will give notice to each affected Owner.

CHARGES AGAINST FUND VALUE

  Daily Deduction from MONY America Variable Account A

     Mortality and Expense Risk Charge

     The Company assumes mortality and expense risks. A charge for assuming such
risks is deducted daily from the net assets of Variable Account A. This daily
charge from MONY America Variable Account A is deducted at a current daily rate
equivalent to an annual rate of 1.25% from the value of the net assets of MONY
America Variable Account A. The rate is guaranteed not to exceed a daily rate
equivalent to an annual rate of 1.35% from the value of the net assets of MONY
America Variable Account A. Of the 1.25% charge, .80% is for assuming mortality
risks (which is guaranteed no to exceed .90%), and .45% is for assuming expense
risks. The charge is deducted from MONY America Variable

                                       31
<PAGE>   48

Account A, and therefore the subaccounts, on each Business Day. These charges
will not be deducted from the Guaranteed Interest Account. Where the previous
day (or days) was not a Business Day, the deduction currently on the next
Business Day will be 0.003425% (guaranteed not to exceed 0.003699%) multiplied
by the number of days since the last Business Day. The Company reserves the
right to increase the charge up to a maximum annual rate of 1.35%.

     The Company believes that this level of charge is within the range of
industry practice for comparable individual flexible payment variable annuity
contracts.

     The mortality risk assumed by the Company is that Annuitants may live for a
longer time than projected. If that occurs, an aggregate amount of annuity
benefits greater than that projected will be payable. In making this projection,
the Company has used the mortality rates from the 1983 Table "a" (discrete
functions without projections for future mortality), with 3 1/2% interest. The
expense risk assumed is that expenses incurred in issuing and administering the
Contracts will exceed the administrative charges provided in the Contracts.

     The Company does not expect to make a profit from the mortality and expense
risk charge. However, if the amount of the charge exceeds the amount needed, the
excess will be kept by the Company in its general account. If the amount of the
charge is inadequate, the Company will pay the difference out of its general
account.

  Deductions from Cash Value

     Annual Contract Charge

     The Company has primary responsibility for the administration of the
Contract and MONY America Variable Account A. An annual Contract charge helps to
reimburse the Company for administrative expenses related to the maintenance of
the Contract. Ordinary administrative expenses expected to be incurred include
premium collection, recordkeeping, processing death benefit claims and
surrenders, preparing and mailing reports, and overhead costs. In addition, the
Company expects to incur certain additional administrative expenses in
connection with the issuance of the Contract, including the review of
applications and the establishment of Contract records.

     The Company intends to administer the Contract itself through an
arrangement whereby it may buy some administrative services from MONY and such
other sources as may be available.

     Currently, there is no annual Contract charge. The Company may in the
future impose a Contract charge. The charge will never, however, exceed $50
(except for contracts issued in the states of Maryland, Massachusetts, New
Jersey, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas and Washington
where it will not exceed $30). The Owner will receive a written notice 30 days
in advance of any change in the charge. Any applicable charge will be assessed
once per year on the contract anniversary, starting on the first contract
anniversary.

     If imposed, the Annual Contract Charge is deducted from the Fund Value on
each Contract Anniversary before the date annuity payments start.

The amount of the charge will be allocated against the Guaranteed Interest
Account and each subaccount of MONY America Variable Account A in the same
proportion that the Fund Value in those accounts bears to the Fund Value of the
Contract. The Company does not expect to make any profit from the administrative
cost deductions.

     Transfer Charge

     Contract value may be transferred among the subaccounts or to or from the
Guaranteed Interest Account and one or more of the subaccounts (including
transfers made by telephone, if permitted by the Company). The Company reserves
the right to impose a transfer charge for each transfer instructed by the Owner
in a Contract year. The transfer charge compensates the Company for the costs of
effecting the transfer. The transfer charge will not exceed $25 (except in for
contracts issued in the states of South Carolina and Texas where is will not
exceed $10). The Company does not expect to make a profit from

                                       32
<PAGE>   49

the transfer charge. If imposed, the transfer charge will be deducted from the
Contract's Fund Value held in the subaccount(s) or from the Guaranteed Interest
Account from which the first transfer is made.

     Surrender Charge

     A contingent deferred sales charge (called a "Surrender Charge") will be
imposed when a full or partial surrender is requested or at the start of annuity
benefits if it is during the first eight years of the contract.

     The Surrender Charge will never exceed 7% of total Fund Value. The
Surrender Charge is intended to reimburse the Company for expenses incurred in
distributing the Contract. To the extent such charge is insufficient to cover
all distribution costs, the Company will make up the difference. The Company
will use funds from its General Account, which may contain funds deducted from
Variable Account A to cover mortality and expense risks borne by the Company.
(See "Mortality and Expense Risk Charge" at page 31.)

     A Surrender Charge will be computed when a surrender is made and will be
deducted from the Fund Value if:

          (1) All or a part of the Contract's Cash Value (See "Surrenders" at
     page 27) is surrendered, or

          (2) The Cash Value is received at maturity when the annuity payments
     start.

     A Surrender Charge will not be imposed:

          (1) Against Fund Value surrendered after the eighth Contract Year.

          (2) To the extent necessary to permit the Owner to obtain an amount
     equal to the Free Partial Surrender Amount (See "Free Partial Surrender
     Amount" at page 34.)

          (3) If the Contract is surrendered after the third Contract Year and
     the surrender proceeds are paid under either Settlement Option 3 or
     Settlement Option 3A (See "Settlement Options" at page 36.)

In no event will the aggregate Surrender Charge exceed 7% of the Fund Value. The
amount deducted from the Fund Value to cover the surrender charge is not subject
to the surrender charge.

     For a partial surrender, the Surrender Charge will be deducted from any
remaining Fund Value, if sufficient. If the Fund Value is not sufficient, it
will be deducted from the amount surrendered. Any Surrender Charge will be
allocated against the Guaranteed Interest Account and each subaccount of
Variable Account A in the same proportion that the amount of the partial
surrender allocated against those accounts bears to the total amount of the
partial surrender.

     No Surrender Charge will be deducted from Death Benefits except as
described in "Death Benefit" at page 29.

                                       33
<PAGE>   50

     Amount of Surrender Charge.  The amount of the Surrender Charge is equal to
a varying percentage of Fund Value during the first 8 Contract years. The
percentage is determined by multiplying the Surrender Charge Percentage for the
Contract Year by the amount of Fund Value requested as follows:

The amount of the Surrender Charge is in addition to any applicable Market Value
Adjustment that may be made if the surrender is made from Fund Value in the
Guaranteed Interest Account with Market Value Adjustment. See "Guaranteed
Interest Account -- Surrenders" at page 38 and the prospectus for the Guaranteed
Interest Account with Market Value Adjustment which accompanies this prospectus
for further details.

     Free Partial Surrender Amount.  The surrender charge may be reduced by
using the Free Partial Surrender Amount provided for in the Contract. The
surrender charge will not be deducted in the following circumstances:

          (1) For Qualified Contracts, (other than Contracts issued for IRA and
     SEP-IRA), an amount up to the greater of:

             (a) $10,000 (but not more than the Contract's Fund Value), or

             (b) 10% of the Contract's Fund Value (at the beginning of the
        Contract year, except if the surrender is requested during the first
        Contract Year, then 10% of the Contract's Fund Value at the time the
        surrender is requested)

           may be received in each Contract Year without a surrender charge

          (2) For Non-Qualified Contracts (and Contracts issued for IRA and
     SEP-IRA), an amount up to 10% of the Fund Value of the Contract may be
     received in each Contract Year without a surrender charge.

Contract Fund Value here means the Fund Value at the beginning of the contract
year in the subaccounts (and the Guaranteed Interest Account not the Loan
Account). This reduction of Surrender Charge does not affect any applicable
Market Value Adjustment that may be made if the surrender is made from Fund
Value in the Guaranteed Interest Account with Market Value Adjustment. See
"Guaranteed Interest Account -- Surrenders" at page 38 and the prospectus for
the Guaranteed Interest Account with Market Value Adjustment which accompanies

  Taxes

     Currently, no charge will be made against MONY America Variable Account A
for federal income taxes. However, the Company may make such a charge in the
future if income or gains within MONY America Variable Account A will incur any
federal income tax liability. Charges for other taxes, if any, attributable to
MONY America Variable Account A may also be made. (See "Federal Tax Status" at
page 44.)

  Investment Advisory Fee

     Because MONY America Variable Account A purchases shares of the Funds, the
net assets of MONY America Variable Account A will reflect the investment
advisory fee and other expenses incurred by the Funds. See "Table of Fees"
beginning at page 5 for a table which shows the fees and expenses incurred
during 1998 and "The Funds -- MONY Series Fund, Inc." and "The
Funds -- Enterprise Accumulation Trust" at pages 16 -19 for a table setting
forth the investment advisory fees.

                               ANNUITY PROVISIONS

ANNUITY PAYMENTS

     Annuity payments under a Contract will begin on the date that is selected
by the Owner when the Contract is applied for. The date chosen for the start of
annuity payments may be:

          (1) No earlier than the Contract Anniversary after the Annuitant's
     10th birthday, and

          (2) No later than the Contract Anniversary after the Annuitant's 95th
     birthday.

     The minimum number of years from the Effective Date to the start of annuity
payments is 10. The date when annuity payments start may be:

          (1) Advanced to a date that is not earlier than the 10th Contract
     Anniversary.

          (2) Deferred from time to time by the Owner by written notice to the
     Company.

     The date when annuity payments start will be advanced or deferred if:

          (1) Notice of the advance or deferral is received by the Company prior
     to the current date for the start of annuity payments.

          (2) The new start date for annuity payments is a date which is not
     later than the Contract Anniversary after the Annuitant's 95th birthday.

A particular retirement plan may contain other restrictions.

     When annuity payments start, unless Settlement Option 3 or 3A is elected,
the Contract's Cash Value, less any state taxes which may be imposed upon
annuitization, will be applied to provide an annuity or any other option
previously chosen by the Owner and permitted by the Company. If Settlement
Option 3 or 3A is elected, the Contract's Fund Value (less any state taxes
imposed upon annuitization) will be applied to provide an annuity. A
supplementary contract will be issued. That contract will describe the terms of
the settlement. No payments may be requested under the Contract's surrender
provisions after annuity payments start. No surrender will be permitted except
as may be available under the Settlement Option elected.

     For Contracts issued in connection with retirement plans, reference should
be made to the terms of the particular retirement plan for any limitations or
restrictions on when annuity payments start.

                                       35
<PAGE>   52

ELECTION AND CHANGE OF SETTLEMENT OPTION

     During the lifetime of the Annuitant and prior to the start of annuity
payments, the Owner may elect:

        - One or more of the Settlement Options described below, or

        - Another settlement option as may be agreed to by the Company.

The Owner may also change any election if written notice of the change is
received by the Company at its Operation Center prior to the start of annuity
payments. If no election is in effect when annuity payments start, a lump sum
payment will be considered to have been elected.

     Settlement Options may also be elected by the Owner or the Beneficiary as
provided in the Death Benefit and Surrender sections of this Prospectus. (See
"Death Benefit" at page 29 and "Surrenders" at page 27.)

     Where applicable, reference should be made to the terms of a particular
retirement plan and any applicable legislation for any limitations or
restrictions on the options that may be elected.

SETTLEMENT OPTIONS

     Proceeds settled under the Settlement Options listed below or otherwise
currently available will not participate in the investment experience of the
Variable Account.

     Settlement Option 1 -- Interest Income:  Interest on the proceeds at a rate
(not less than 2 3/4 percent per year) set by the Company each year.

     Settlement Option 2 -- Income for Specified Period:  Fixed monthly payments
for a specified period of time, as elected. The payments may, at the Company's
option, be increased by additional interest each year.

     Settlement Option 3 -- Single Life Income:  Payments for the life of the
payee and for a period certain. The period certain may be (a) 0 years, 10 years,
or 20 years, or (b) the period required for the total income payments to equal
the proceeds (refund period certain). The amount of the income will be
determined by the Company on the date the proceeds become payable.

     Settlement Option 3A -- Joint Life Income:  Payments during the joint
lifetime of the payee and one other person, and during the lifetime of the
survivor. The survivor's monthly income may be equal to either (a) the income
payable during the joint lifetime or (b) two-thirds of that income. If a person
for whom this option is chosen dies before the first monthly payment is made,
the survivor will receive proceeds instead under Settlement Option 3, with 10
years certain.

     Settlement Option 4 -- Income of Specified Amount:  Income, of an amount
chosen, for as long as the proceeds and interest last. The amount chosen to be
received as income in each year may not be less than 10 percent of the proceeds
settled. Interest will be credited annually on the amount remaining unpaid at a
rate determined annually by the Company. This rate will not be less than 2.75
percent per year.

     The Contract contains annuity payment rates for Settlement Options 3 and 3A
described in this Prospectus. The rates show, for each $1,000 applied, the
dollar amount of the monthly fixed annuity payment, when this payment is based
on minimum guaranteed interest as described in the Contract.

     The annuity payment rates may vary according to the Settlement Option
elected and the age of the payee. The mortality table used in determining the
annuity payment rates for Options 3 and 3A is the 1983 Table "a" (discrete
functions, without projections for future mortality), with 3.5 percent interest.

     Under Settlement Option 3, if income based on the period certain elected is
the same as the income provided by another available period or periods certain,
the Company will consider the election to have been made of the longest period
certain.

     In Qualified Plans, settlement options available to Owners may be
restricted by the terms of the plans.
                                       36
<PAGE>   53

FREQUENCY OF ANNUITY PAYMENTS

     At the time the Settlement Option is chosen, the payee may request that it
be paid:

     - Quarterly

     - Semiannually

     - Annually

If the payee does not request a particular installment payment, the payments
will be made in monthly installments. However, if the net amount available to
apply under any Settlement Option is less than $1,000, the Company has the right
to pay such amount in one lump sum. In addition, if the payments provided for
would be less than $25, the Company shall have the right to change the frequency
of the payments to result in payments of at least $25.

ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

     The Company may require proof of the age of the Annuitant before making any
life annuity payment under the Contract. If the Annuitant's age has been
misstated, the amount payable will be the amount that would have been provided
under the Settlement Option at the correct age. Once life income payments begin,
any underpayments will be made up in one sum with the next annuity payment.
Overpayments will be deducted from the future annuity payments until the total
is repaid.

     The Contract must be returned to the Company upon any settlement. Prior to
any settlement of a death claim, proof of the Annuitant's death must be
submitted to the Company.

     Where any benefits under the Contract are contingent upon the recipient's
being alive on a given date, the Company require proof satisfactory to it that
such condition has been met.

     The Contracts described in this Prospectus contain annuity payment rates
that distinguish between men and women. On July 6, 1983, the Supreme Court held
in Arizona Governing Committee v. Norris that optional annuity benefits provided
under an employer's deferred compensation plan could not, under Title VII of the
Civil Rights Act of 1964, vary between men and women on the basis of sex.
Because of this decision, the annuity payment rates that apply to Contracts
purchased under an employment-related insurance or benefit program may in some
cases not vary on the basis of the Annuitant's sex. Unisex rates to be provided
by the Company will apply for Qualified Plans.

     Employers and employee organizations should consider, in consultation with
legal counsel, the impact of Norris, and Title VII, generally and any comparable
state laws that may apply, on any employment-related plan for which a Contract
may be purchased.

                          GUARANTEED INTEREST ACCOUNT

     The Guaranteed Interest Account is a part of the Company's General Account.
It consists of all the Company's assets other than assets allocated to
segregated investment accounts of the Company, including Variable Account A.

     Crediting of Interest.  The entire initial purchase payment always earns
interest at a rate not less than 3.5% per year until the end of the Right to
Return Contract Period. At such time, it is transferred to the selected
subaccounts and/or accumulation periods of the Guaranteed Interest Account. Net
Purchase Payments allocated by a Owner to the Guaranteed Interest Account will
be credited with interest at the rate declared by the Company for the specified
period selected.

     Net purchase payments allocated by an Owner to the Guaranteed Interest
Account will be credited with an interest rate declared by the Company. The
interest rate is guaranteed not to be less than 3.5% annually (0.0094%
compounded daily). Contract Owners who allocate purchase payments to or transfer
funds into the Guaranteed Interest Account choose between a 3, 5, 7, or 10 year
accumulation period except in certain states. The accumulation period is limited
to one year for contracts issued in the states of

                                       37
<PAGE>   54

Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South
Carolina, Texas and Washington. Prior to the beginning of each calendar month,
interest rates will be declared for each period, if more favorable than the
guaranteed rate. Each interest rate declared by the Company applies for all net
purchase payments received or transfers from the Variable Account completed
within the period during which it is effective. The purchase payment is locked
in to this interest rate for the entire duration of the period selected by the
Contract Owner. Within 45 days, but not less than 15 days before the
Accumulation Period expires, we will send notice of the new rates being declared
by the Company. When the period expires the Contract Owner can:

          (1) Elect an accumulation period of 3, 5, 7, or 10 years (except in
     certain states where the accumulation period is limited to a one year
     period), or

          (2) May elect to transfer the entire amount allocated to the expiring
     accumulation period to the separate account.

If no election is made, the entire amount allocated to the expiring period will
automatically be held for an accumulation period of the same duration. If that
period will extend beyond the maturity date or if the period is no longer
offered, the money will be transferred into the Money Market subaccount.

     Surrenders.  The Contract Owner must specify the source by interest rate
accumulation period of amounts withdrawn from the Guaranteed Interest Account as
a result of a:

     - Transfer

     - Partial surrender

     - Loan

     - Any charge imposed in accordance with the Contract.

Partial and full surrenders or transfers from the Guaranteed Interest Account
are subject to the Market Value Adjustment for contracts issued in most states.
This adjustment is determined by multiplying the amount of the surrender or
transfer from each accumulation period and interest rate by the following
factor:
                                         (n-t)/12
                         [(1+a) / (1+b)]           - 1

where

        a = rate declared at the beginning of accumulation period

        b = rate then currently declared for an accumulation period equal to the
            time remaining in the guaranteed period, plus 0.25%

        n = guaranteed period in months

        t = number of elapsed months (or portion thereof) in the guaranteed
period

     If an Accumulation Period equal to the time remaining is not issued by the
Company, the rate will be an interpolation between two available Accumulation
Periods. If two such Periods are not available, we will use the rate for the
next available Accumulation Period.

     Market Value Adjustments do not apply for partial or full surrenders or
transfers requested within 30 days before the end of the accumulation period,
nor to any benefits paid upon the death of the Annuitant. The Market Value
Adjustment does apply to benefits paid upon death of the Owner. The Market Value
Adjustment does not apply to contracts issued in the states of Maryland,
Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas
and Washington. In addition, contracts issued in these states must maintain a
minimum fund value balance of $2,500 in the Guaranteed Interest Account when an
allocation to said account is chosen.

                                OTHER PROVISIONS

OWNERSHIP

     The Owner has all rights and may receive all benefits under the Contract.
During the lifetime of the Annuitant (and Secondary Annuitant if one has been
named), the Owner is the person so designated in the application, unless:

          (1) A change in Owner is requested, or

          (2) A Successor Owner becomes the Owner.

     The Owner may name a Successor Owner or a new Owner at any time. If the
Owner dies, the Successor Owner, if living, becomes the Owner. Any request for
change must be:

          (1) Made in writing; and

          (2) Received at the Company.

The change will become effective as of the date the written request is signed. A
new choice of Owner or Successor Owner will apply to any payment made or action
taken by the Company after the request for the change is received. Owners should
consult a competent tax advisor prior to changing Owners.

SUCCESSOR OWNER -- The living person who, at the death of the Owner, becomes the
new Owner.

PROVISION REQUIRED BY SECTION 72(s) OF THE CODE

     The Contract under a Non-Qualified Plan will be surrendered as of the date
of the Owner's death if:

     - The Owner dies:

      - Before the start of annuity payments, and

      - While the Annuitant is living, and

     - That Owner's spouse is not the Successor Owner as of the date of the
       Owner's death.

      - Satisfactory proof of death must be provided to the Company.

The surrender proceeds may be paid over the life of the Successor Owner if:

     - The Successor Owner is the Beneficiary, and

     - The Successor Owner chooses that option.

- - Payments must begin no later than one year after the date of death. If the
  Successor Owner is a surviving spouse, then the surviving spouse will be
  treated as the new Owner of the Contract. Under such circumstances, it is not
  necessary to surrender the Contract. The proceeds must be distributed within 5
  years after the date of death if:

  - The spouse is not the Successor Owner, and

  - There is no designated Beneficiary.

- - However, under the terms of the Contract, if the spouse is not the Successor
  Owner,

  - the Contract will be surrendered as of the date of death, and

  - the proceeds will be paid to the Beneficiary.

This provision shall not extend the term of the Contract beyond the date when
death proceeds become payable.

                                       39
<PAGE>   56

     If the Owner dies on or after annuity payments start, any remaining portion
of the proceeds will be distributed using a method that is at least as quick as
the one used as of the date of the Owner's death.

PROVISION REQUIRED BY SECTION 401(a)(9) OF THE CODE

     The entire interest of a Qualified Plan participant under the Contract will
be distributed to the Owner or his/her Designated Beneficiary. Distribution will
occur either by or beginning not later than April 1 of the calendar year
following the calendar year the Qualified Plan Participant attains age 70 1/2.
The interest is distributed:

     -  over the life of such Participant, or

     -  the lives of such Participant and Designated Beneficiary.

     If (i) distributions have begun, and (ii) the Participant dies before the
Owner's entire interest has been distributed to him/her, the remaining
distributions will be made using a method that is at least as quick as that used
as of the date of the Participant's death. The Contract will be surrendered as
of the Participant's death if:

          (1) The Participant dies before the start of such distributions, and

          (2) There is no designated Beneficiary.

The surrender proceeds must be distributed within 5 years after the date of
death. But, the surrender proceeds may, be paid over the life of any Designated
Beneficiary at his/her option. In such case, distributions will begin not later
than one year after the Participant's death. If the Designated Beneficiary is
the surviving spouse of the Participant, distributions will begin not earlier
than the date on which the Participant would have attained age 70 1/2. If the
surviving spouse dies before distributions to him/her begin, the provisions of
this paragraph shall be applied as if the surviving spouse were the Participant.
If the Plan is an IRA under Section 408 of the Code, the surviving spouse may
elect to forgo distribution and treat the IRA as his/her own plan.

     It is the Owner's responsibility to assure that distribution rules imposed
by the Code will be met. Qualified Plan Contracts include those qualifying for
special treatment under Sections 401, 403, 408 and 408A of the Code.

SECONDARY ANNUITANT

     Except where the Contract is issued in connection with a Qualified Plan, a
Secondary Annuitant may be designated by the Owner. Such designation may be made
once before annuitization, either

          (1) in the application for the Contract, or

          (2) after the Contract is issued, by written notice to the Company at
     its Operation Center.

The Secondary Annuitant may be deleted by written notice to the Company at its
Operation Center. A designation or deletion of a Secondary Annuitant will take
effect as of the date the written election was signed. The Company, however,
must first accept and record the change at its Operations Center. The change
will be subject to:

     -  any payment made by the Company, or

     -  action taken by the Company before the receipt of the notice at the
Company's Operation Center.

The Secondary Annuitant will be deleted from the Contract automatically by the
Company as of the Contract Anniversary following the Secondary Annuitant's 95th
birthday.

                                       40
<PAGE>   57

     On the death of the Annuitant, the Secondary Annuitant will become the
Annuitant, under the following conditions:

          (1) the death of the Annuitant must have occurred before the Annuity
     Commencement Date;

          (2) the Secondary Annuitant is living on the date of the Annuitant's
     death;

          (3) if the Annuitant was the Owner on the date of death, the Successor
     Owner must have been the Annuitant's spouse; and

          (4) if the date annuity payments start is later than the Contract
     Anniversary nearest the Secondary Annuitant's 95th birthday, the date
     annuity payments start will be automatically advanced to that Contract
     Anniversary.

     Effect of Secondary Annuitant's Becoming the Annuitant.  If the Secondary
Annuitant becomes the Annuitant, the Death Benefit proceeds will be paid to the
Beneficiary only on the death of the Secondary Annuitant. If the Secondary
Annuitant was the Beneficiary on the Annuitant's death, the Beneficiary will be
automatically changed to the person who was the Successor Beneficiary on the
date of death. If there was no Successor Beneficiary, then the Secondary
Annuitant's executors or administrators, unless the Owner directed otherwise,
will become the Beneficiary. All other rights and benefits under the Contract
will continue in effect during the lifetime of the Secondary Annuitant as if the
Secondary Annuitant were the Annuitant.

ASSIGNMENT

     The Company will not be bound by any assignment until the assignment (or a
copy) is received by the Company at its Administrative Office. The Company is
not responsible for determining the validity or effect of any assignment. The
Company shall not be liable for any payment or other settlement made by the
Company before receipt of the assignment.

     If the Contract is issued under certain retirement plans, then it may not
be assigned, pledged or otherwise transferred except under conditions allowed
under applicable law.

     Because an assignment may be a taxable event, a Owner should consult a
competent tax advisor before assigning the Contract.

CHANGE OF BENEFICIARY

     So long as the Contract is in effect, the Beneficiary or Successor
Beneficiary may be changed. A change is made by submitting a written request to
the Company at its Operation Center. The form of the request must be acceptable
to the Company. The Contract need not be returned unless requested by the
Company. The change will take effect as of the date the request is signed,
whether or not the Annuitant is living when the request is received by the
Company. The Company will not, however, be liable for any payment made or action
taken before receipt and acknowledgement of the request at its Operation Center.

SUBSTITUTION OF SECURITIES

     The Company may substitute shares of another mutual fund for shares of the
Funds already purchased or to be purchased in the future by Contract Purchase
Payments if:

          (1) the shares of any portfolio of the Funds is no longer available
     for investment by MONY America Variable Account A or,

          (2) in the judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, further
     investment in shares of one or more of the portfolios of the Funds is
     inappropriate based on the purposes of the Contract.

A substitution of securities in any subaccount will take place only with prior
approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission and under such requirements
as it may impose.

                                       41
<PAGE>   58

MODIFICATION OF THE CONTRACTS

     Upon notice to the Owner, the Contract may be modified by the Company, but
only if such modification

          (1) is necessary to make the Contract or MONY America Variable Account
     A comply with any law or regulation issued by a governmental agency to
     which the Company is subject or

          (2) is necessary to assure continued qualification of the Contract
     under the Internal Revenue Code or other federal or state laws relating to
     retirement annuities or annuity contracts or

          (3) is necessary to reflect a change in the operation of MONY America
     Variable Account A or the subaccounts or the Guaranteed Interest Account or

          (4) provides additional Settlement Options or fixed accumulation
     options. In the event of any modification, the Company may make appropriate
     endorsement in the Contract to reflect such modification.

CHANGE IN OPERATION OF MONY AMERICA VARIABLE ACCOUNT A

     MONY America Variable Account A may be operated as a management company
under the 1940 Act or it may be deregistered under the 1940 Act in the event the
registration is no longer required

     - at the Company's election, and

     - subject to any necessary vote by persons having the right to give voting
       instructions for shares of the Funds held by the subaccounts.

Deregistration of MONY America Variable Account A requires an order by the
Securities and Exchange Commission. If there is a change in the operation of
MONY America Variable Account A under this provision, the Company may make
appropriate endorsement to the Contract to reflect the change and take such
other action as may be necessary and appropriate to effect the change.

                                 VOTING RIGHTS

     All of the assets held in the subaccounts of MONY America Variable Account
A will be invested in shares of the designated portfolios of the Funds. The
Company is the legal holder of these shares. As such, it has the right to vote
on the following matters:

          (1) Election of the Board of Directors of MONY Series Fund, Inc. or
     the Board of Trustees of The Enterprise Accumulation Trust.

          (2) Certain matters that are required by the 1940 Act to be approved
     or ratified by the shareholders of a mutual fund.

          (3) Any other matter that may be voted upon at a shareholders'
     meeting.

To the extent required by law, the Company will vote the shares of each of the
Funds held in MONY America Variable Account A (whether or not attributable to
Owners). The Company will vote at shareholder meetings of each of the Funds
according to the instructions received from Owners. The number of votes will be
determined as of the record date selected by the Board of Directors or the Board
of Trustees of the respective Fund. The Company will furnish Owners with the
proper forms to enable them to give it these instructions. Currently, the
Company may disregard voting instructions under the circumstances described in
the following paragraph.

     The Company may, if required by state insurance officials, disregard voting
instructions if those instructions would require shares to be voted to

     - Cause a change in the subclassification or investment objectives or
       policies of one or more of the portfolios of either or both of the Funds.

                                       42
<PAGE>   59

     - Approve or disapprove an investment adviser or principal underwriter for
       either or both of the Funds.

In addition, the Company itself may disregard voting instructions that would
require the above changes if the Company reasonably disapproves those changes in
accordance with applicable federal regulations. If the Company does disregard
voting instructions, it will advise Owners of that action and its reasons for
the action in the next semiannual report to Owners.

     - Each Owner will have the equivalent of one vote per $100 of value
       attributable to the Contract held in each subaccount of MONY America
       Variable Account A.

     - Each owner will have fractional votes for amounts less than $100.

     - For voting purposes, this value attributable to the Contract is equal to
       the Fund Value.

     - The votes are represented as votes per $100 of value in each subaccount
       of MONY America Variable Account A. These votes are converted into a
       proportionate number of votes in shares of the corresponding portfolio of
       each of the Funds.

     - Shares for which timely voting instructions are not received from Owners
       will be voted by the Company. The Company will vote the shares in the
       same proportion as those shares in that subaccount for which instructions
       are received.

     - Should applicable federal securities laws or regulations permit, the
       Company may elect to vote shares of each of the Funds in its own right.

     The number of corresponding shares of the portfolio for which the Owner may
give instructions is computed by:

          (1) Determining the value attributable to the Contract held in that
     subaccount.

          (2) Dividing that value by the net asset value of one share in the
     designated portfolio of the respective Fund.

Example:  Contract value held in subaccount = $540
         Net asset value of portfolio shares = $20 per share on the record date
         May give instructions on 5.4 votes ($540 divided by $100)
         Converts into instructions on 27 shares of the Fund ($540 divided by
$20)

     Matters on which Owners may give voting instructions include the following:

          (1) approval of any change in the Investment Advisory Agreement and
     Services Agreement, if any, for the portfolio(s) of the Fund(s)
     corresponding to the Owner's selected subaccount(s);

          (2) any change in the fundamental investment policies of the
     portfolio(s) corresponding to the Owner's selected subaccount(s); and

          (3) any other matter requiring a vote of the shareholders of either of
     the Funds.

Owners participating in a particular portfolio will vote separately on the
following matters pursuant to the requirements of Rule 18f-2 under the 1940 Act:

          (1) approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement, or

                         DISTRIBUTION OF THE CONTRACTS

     MONY Securities Corporation ("MSC"), a New York corporation organized on
September 26, 1969 which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, will act

Contracts are sold by individuals who are registered representatives of MSC and
who are licensed as life insurance agents for the Company. The Contracts may
also be sold through other broker-dealers authorized by MSC and applicable law
to do so. Commissions and other expenses directly related to the sale of the
Contract will not exceed 6.0% of Purchase Payments. Additional compensation may
be paid for persistency, sales quality, and contract size and for other services

training of personnel and the production of promotional material.

                               FEDERAL TAX STATUS

INTRODUCTION

     The Contracts described in this prospectus are designed for use by
retirement plans that may or may not qualify for favorable tax treatment under
the provisions of Section 401, 403 (other than 403(b)), 408(b), and 457 of the
Code. The ultimate effect of federal income taxes on

     - the value of the Contract's Fund Value,

     - annuity payments, and

     - economic benefit to the Owner, Annuitant, and the Beneficiary may depend
       upon

     - the type of retirement plan for which the Contract is purchased, and

     - the tax and employment status of the individual concerned.

     The following discussion of the treatment of Contracts and of the Company
under the federal income tax laws is general in nature. The discussion is based
on the Company's understanding of current federal income tax laws, and is not
intended as tax advice. Any person considering the purchase of a Contract should
consult a qualified tax adviser. A more detailed description of the treatment of
the Contract under federal income tax laws is contained in the Statement of
Additional Information. THE COMPANY DOES NOT MAKE ANY GUARANTEE REGARDING ANY
TAX STATUS, FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL, OF ANY CONTRACT OR ANY TRANSACTION
INVOLVING THE CONTRACTS.

TAX TREATMENT OF THE COMPANY

     Under existing federal income tax laws, the income of MONY America Variable
Account A, to the extent that it is applied to increase reserves under the
Contracts, is substantially nontaxable to the Company.

TAXATION OF ANNUITIES IN GENERAL

     The Contracts offered by this prospectus are designed for use in connection
with Qualified Plans and Non-Qualified Plans. All or a portion of the
contributions to such plans will be used to make Purchase Payments under the
Contracts. In general, contributions to Qualified Plans and income earned on
contributions to all plans are tax-deferred until distributed to plan
participants or their beneficiaries. Such tax deferral is not, however,
available for Non-Qualified Plans if the Owner is other than a natural person
unless the contract is held as an agent for a natural person. Annuity payments
made as retirement distributions under a Contract are generally taxable to the
annuitant as ordinary income except to the extent of

     - Participant contributions (in the case of Qualified Plans), or

     - Owner contributions (in the case of Non-Qualified Plans).

Owners, Annuitants, and Beneficiaries should seek qualified advice about the tax
consequences of distributions, withdrawals, and payments under the retirement
plans in connection with which the Contracts are purchased.

                                       44
<PAGE>   61

     The Company will withhold and remit to the United States Government and,
where applicable to state governments part of the taxable portion of each
distribution made under a Contract unless the Owner or Annuitant

     - provides his or her taxpayer identification number to the Company, and

     - notifies the Company that he or she chooses not to have amounts withheld.

     The Technical and Miscellaneous Revenue Act of 1988 ("TAMRA") has
requirements for determining the amount includable in gross income with respect
to distributions not received as an annuity. Distributions include those
resulting from gratuitous transfers. When computing the distributions for any 12
month period, distributions from all annuity contracts issued by the same
company to the Owner (other than those issued to qualified retirement plans)
will be treated as one annuity contract. The IRS is given power to prescribe
additional rules to prevent avoidance of this rule through serial purchases of
contracts or otherwise. None of these rules is expected to affect tax-benefited
plans.

     Effective January 1, 1993, distributions of plan benefits from qualified
retirement plans, other than individual retirement arrangements ("IRAs"),
generally will be subject to mandatory federal income tax withholding unless
they either are:

        1. Part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least
annually) for

          - the participant's life or life expectancy,

          - the joint lives or life expectancies of the participant and his/her
            beneficiary,

          - or a period certain of not less than 10 years, or

        2. Required by the Code upon the participant's attainment of age 70 1/2
or death.

     Such withholding will apply even if the distribution is rolled over into
another qualified plan, including an IRA. The withholding can be avoided if the
participant's interest is directly transferred by the old plan to another
eligible qualified plan, including an IRA. A direct transfer to the new plan can
be made only in accordance with the terms of the old plan. If withholding is not
avoided, the amount withheld may be subject to income tax and excise tax
penalties.

     Under the generation skipping transfer tax, the Company may be liable for
payment of this tax under certain circumstances. In the event that the Company
determines that such liability exists, an amount necessary to pay the generation
skipping transfer tax may be subtracted from the death benefit proceeds.

RETIREMENT PLANS

     The Contracts described in this Prospectus currently are designed for use
with the following types of retirement plans:

          (1) Pension and Profit Sharing Plans established by business employers
     and certain associations, as permitted by Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the
     Code, including those purchasers who would have been covered under the
     rules governing H.R. 10 (Keogh) Plans;

          (2) Individual Retirement Annuities permitted by Section 408(b) of the
     Code, including Simplified Employee Pensions established by employers
     pursuant to Section 408(k);

          (3) Deferred compensation plans provided by certain governmental
     entities under Section 457; and

          (4) Non-Qualified Plans.

     The tax rules applicable to participants in such retirement plans vary
according to the type of plan and its terms and conditions. Therefore, no
attempt is made here to provide more than general information about the use of
Contracts with the various types of retirement plans. Participants in such plans
as well as Owners, Annuitants, and Beneficiaries are cautioned that the rights
of any person to any benefits under

                                       45
<PAGE>   62

these plans are subject to the terms and conditions of the plans themselves,
regardless of the terms and conditions of the Contracts. The Company will
provide purchasers of Contracts used in connection with Individual Retirement
Annuities with such supplementary information as may be required by the Internal
Revenue Service or other appropriate agency. Any person contemplating the
purchase of a Contract should consult a qualified tax adviser.

                                PERFORMANCE DATA

     We may advertise the performance of the MONY America Variable Account A
subaccounts. We will also report performance to contract owners and may make
performance information available to prospective purchasers. This information
will be presented in compliance with applicable law.

     Performance information contained in these advertisements is based upon
historical earnings and is not indicative of future performance. The data for
each subaccount reflects the investment results of the designated portfolio of
the Fund and recurring charges and deductions borne by or imposed on the
portfolio and the subaccount. Set forth below for each subaccount is the manner
in which the data contained in such advertisements will be calculated.

     Money Market Subaccount.  The performance data for this subaccount will
reflect the "yield" and "effective yield". The "yield" of the subaccount refers
to the income generated by an investment in the Subaccount over the seven day
period stated in the advertisement. This income is "annualized", that is, the
amount of income generated by the investment during that week is assumed to be
generated each week over a 52 week period and is shown as a percentage of the
investment. The "effective yield" is calculated similarly, but, when annualized,
the income earned by an investment in the subaccount is assumed to be
reinvested. The "effective yield" will be slightly higher than the "yield"
because of the compounding effect of this assumed reinvestment.

     Subaccounts other than the Money Market Subaccount.  The performance data
for these subaccounts will reflect the "yield" and "total return". The "yield"
of each of these subaccounts refers to the income generated by an investment in
that subaccount over the 30 day period stated in the advertisement and is the
result of dividing that income by the value of the subaccount. The value of each
subaccount is the average daily number of Units outstanding multiplied by the
Unit Value on the last day of the period. The "yield" reflects deductions for
all charges, expenses, and fees of both the Funds and the Variable Account other
than the Surrender Charge. "Total return" for each of these subaccounts refers
to the return a Owner would receive during the period indicated if a $1,000
Purchase Payment was made the indicated number of years ago. It reflects
historical investment results less charges and deductions of both the Funds and
MONY America Variable Account A, including any Surrender Charge imposed as a
result of the full Surrender, with the distribution being made in cash rather
than in the form of one of the settlement options, at the close of the period
for which the "total return" data is given. Total return data may also be shown
assuming that the Contract continues in force (i.e., was not surrendered) beyond
the close of the periods indicated, in which case that data would reflect all
charges and deductions of both the Funds and the Variable Account other than the
Surrender Charge. Returns for periods exceeding one year reflect the average
annual total return for such period. In addition to the total return data
described above based upon a $1,000 investment, comparable data may also be
shown for an investment equal to the amount of the average purchase payment made
by a purchaser of a Contract during the prior year.

     Non-Standardized Performance Data.  From time to time, average annual total
return or other performance data may also be advertised in non-standardized
formats. Non-standard performance data will be accompanied by standard
performance data, and the period covered or other non-standard features will be
disclosed.

     Performance information for MONY America Variable Account A may be compared
in advertisements, sales literature, and reports to contract owners to various
indices, including, without limitation, the Standard & Poor's 500 Indices and
the Lehman Brothers, Shearson, CDA/Wiesenberger, Russell, Merrill Lynch, and
Wilshire indices, and to various ranking services, including, without
limitation,

                                       46
<PAGE>   63

the Lipper Annuity and Closed End Survey compiled by Lipper Analytical Services
and the VARDS report compiled by Variable Annuity Research and Data Service and
to the Consumer Price Index (a measure for inflation)in order to provide the
reader a basis for comparison of performance. Reports and promotional literature
may also contain the Company's rating or a rating of the Company's claims paying
ability as determined by firms that analyze and rate insurance companies and by
nationally recognized statistical rating organization.

                             ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

                               LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     There are no legal proceedings to which MONY America Variable Account A is
a party. The Company and the principal underwriter are engaged in various kinds
of routine litigation which, in the opinions of the Company and the principal
underwriter, are not of material importance in relation to the total capital and
surplus of the Company or the principal underwriter.

                              FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The financial statements for the Company should be distinguished from the
financial statements of MONY America Variable Account A and should be considered
only as bearing on the ability of the Company to meet its obligations under the
Contracts. The financial statements of the Company should not be considered as
bearing on the investment performance of the assets held in MONY America
Variable Account A. The financial statements of the Company and MONY America
Variable Account A are included in the Statement of Additional Information.

                     MONY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA

     MONY Life Insurance Company of America ("Company"), is a stock life
insurance company organized in the state of Arizona. The Company is the
corporate successor of Vico Credit Life Insurance Company, incorporated in
Arizona on March 6, 1969, re-named Vico Life Insurance Company on July 7, 1972,
and re-named Consumers National Life Insurance Company on December 22, 1977. The
Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York purchased Consumers National Life
Insurance Company on December 10, 1981 and changed the corporate name to MONY
Life Insurance Company of America. The Company is currently licensed to sell
life insurance in 49 states (not including New York), the District of Columbia,
the U.S. Virgin Island, and Puerto Rico.

     The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MONY Life Insurance Company
("MONY"). MONY was organized as a mutual life insurance company under the laws
of the state of New York in 1842. MONY converted to a stock life insurance
company in November 1998 through demutualization and assumed its present name at
that time. In addition, MONY became wholly-owned subsidiary of the MONY Group at
that time. If completed, it is not expected that demutualization will have any
material effect on the Company, MONY America Variable Account A or the
Contracts. The principal offices of both MONY and the Company are at 1740
Broadway, New York, New York 10019. MONY had consolidated assets at the end of
1998 of approximately $25.0 billion. As of December 31, 1998, MONY had
approximately $289.8 million invested in the Company to support its insurance
operations. MONY intends from time to time to make additional capital
contributions to the Company as needed to enable it to meet its reserve
requirements and expenses in connection with its business. Generally, MONY is
under no obligation to make such contributions, and its assets do not back the
benefits payable under the Contracts.

     At May 1, 1999, the rating assigned to the Company by A.M. Best Company,
Inc., an independent insurance company rating organization, was A- (Excellent)
based upon an analysis of financial condition and operating performance through
the end of 1997. At the same date, the Company was rated A- on the same basis.
The A.M. Best rating of the Company should be considered only as bearing on the
ability of the Company to meet its obligations under the Contracts.

     The Company has a service agreement with MONY whereby MONY provides the
Company with such personnel, facilities, etc., as are reasonably necessary for
the conduct of the Company's business. These services are provided on a cost
reimbursement basis. The Company intends to administer the Contract itself
utilizing the services provided by MONY as a part of the Service Agreement.

     During 1998, the Company paid MONY $84,872,878 for all services provided
under the Service Agreement.

                                 LEGAL OPINION

     Legal matters relating to federal securities laws applicable to the issue
and sale of the Contract and all matters of Arizona law pertaining to the
Contract, including the validity of the Contract and the Company's right to
issue the Contract, have been passed upon by Edward P. Bank, Esq., Vice
President and Deputy General Counsel, MONY.

                            INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

     The audited financial statements of the Company and the Variable Account
appearing on the following pages have been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers

                               FEDERAL TAX STATUS

INTRODUCTION

     The Contract is designed for use to fund retirement plans which may or may
not be Qualified Plans under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (the
"Code"). The ultimate effect of federal income taxes on the Contract value, on
annuity payments, and on the economic benefit to the Owner, Annuitant, or
Beneficiary depends on the type of retirement plan for which the Contract is
purchased and upon the tax and employment status of the individual concerned.
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.

TAXATION OF ANNUITIES IN GENERAL

     Section 72 of the Code governs taxation of annuities in general. Except in
the case of certain corporate and other non-individual Owners, there are no
income taxes on increases in the value of a Contract until a distribution
occurs, in the form of a full surrender, a partial surrender, a death benefit,
an assignment or gift of the Contract, or as annuity payments.

SURRENDERS, DEATH BENEFITS, ASSIGNMENTS AND GIFTS

     An Owner who fully surrenders his or her Contract is taxed on the portion
of the payment that exceeds his or her cost basis in the Contract. For
Non-Qualified Contracts, the cost basis is generally the amount of the Purchase
Payments made for the Contract, and the taxable portion of the surrender payment
is taxed as ordinary income. For Qualified Contracts, the cost basis is
generally zero, except to the extent of non-deductible employee contributions,
and the taxable portion of the surrender payment is generally taxed as ordinary
income subject to special elective 5-year (and, for certain eligible persons,
10-year) income averaging in the case of certain Qualified Contracts. A
Beneficiary entitled to receive a lump sum death benefit upon the death of the
Annuitant is taxed on the portion of the amount that exceeds the Owner's cost
basis in the Contract. If the Beneficiary elects to receive annuity payments
within 60 days of the Annuitant's death, different tax rules apply. (See
"Annuity Payments" below.)

     Partial surrenders received under Non-Qualified Contracts prior to
annuitization are first included in gross income to the extent Surrender Value
exceeds Purchase Payments less prior non-taxable distributions, and the balance
is treated as a non-taxable return of principal to the Owner. For partial
surrenders under a Qualified Contract, payments are generally prorated between
taxable income and non-taxable return of investment.

     There are special rules for Qualified Plans or contracts involving 85
percent or more employee contributions. Since the cost basis of Qualified
Contracts is generally zero, however, partial surrender amounts will generally
be fully taxed as ordinary income.

     An Owner who assigns or pledges a Non-Qualified Contract is treated as if
he or she had received the amount assigned or pledged and thus is subject to
taxation under the rules applicable to surrenders. An Owner who gives away the
Contract (i.e., transfers it without full and adequate consideration) to anyone
other than his or her spouse is treated for income tax purposes as if he or she
had fully surrendered the Contract.

ANNUITY PAYMENTS

     The non-taxable portion of each annuity payment is determined by an
"exclusion ratio" formula which establishes the ratio that the cost basis of the
Contract bears to the total expected value of annuity payments for the term of
the annuity. The remaining portion of each payment is taxable. Such taxable
portion is taxed at
                                       (2)
<PAGE>   68

ordinary income rates. For Qualified Contracts, the cost basis is generally
zero. With annuity payments based on life contingencies, the payments will
become fully taxable once the Annuitant lives longer than the life expectancy
used to calculate the non-taxable portion of the prior payments. Conversely, a
tax deduction in the Annuitant's last taxable year, equal to the unrecovered
cost basis, is available if the Annuitant does not live to life expectancy.

PENALTY TAX

     Payments received by Owners, Annuitants, and Beneficiaries under both
Qualified and Non-Qualified Contracts may be subject to both ordinary income
taxes and a penalty tax equal to 10 percent of the amount received that is
includable in income. The penalty is not imposed on amounts received: (a) after
the taxpayer attains age 59 1/2; (b) in a series of substantially equal payments
made for life or life expectancy following separation from service; (c) after
the death of the Owner (or, where the Owner is not a human being, the death of
the Annuitant); (d) if the taxpayer is totally disabled; (e) upon early
retirement under the plan after the taxpayer's attainment of age 55; or (f)
which are used for certain medical care expenses. Exceptions (e) and (f) do not
apply to Individual Retirement Accounts and Annuities and Non-Qualified
Contracts. An additional exception for Non-Qualified Contracts is amounts
received as an immediate annuity.

INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING

     The Company is required to withhold federal, and, where applicable, state,
income taxes on taxable amounts paid under the Contract unless the recipient
elects not to have withholding apply. The Company will notify recipients of
their right to elect not to have withholding apply.

     Effective January 1, 1993, distributions of plan benefits from qualified
retirement plans, other than individual retirement arrangements ("IRAs"),
generally will be subject to mandatory federal income tax withholding unless
they either are:

          1. Part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least
     annually) for the participant's life or life expectancy, the joint lives or
     life expectancies of the participant and his/ her beneficiary, or a period
     certain of not less than 10 years, or

          2. Required by the Code upon the participant's attainment of age
    70 1/2 or death.

     Such withholding will apply even if the distribution is rolled over into
another qualified plan, including an IRA. The withholding can be avoided if the
participant's interest is directly transferred by the old plan to another
eligible qualified plan, including an IRA. A direct transfer to the new plan can
be made only in accordance with the terms of the old plan. If withholding is not
avoided, the amount withheld may be subject to income tax and excise tax

DIVERSIFICATION STANDARDS

     The United States Secretary of the Treasury has the authority to set
standards for diversification of the investments underlying variable annuity
contracts (other than pension plan contracts). The Secretary of the Treasury has
issued certain regulations. Further regulations may be issued. The Fund is
designed to be managed to meet the diversification requirements for the Contract
as those requirements may change from time to time. The Company intends to
satisfy those requirements so that the Contract will be treated as an annuity
contract.

     The Secretary of the Treasury has announced that he expects to issue
regulations or Revenue Rulings that will prescribe the circumstances in which an
Owner's control of the investments of a segregated asset account may cause the
Owner, rather than the insurance company, to be treated as the owner of the
assets of the account. The regulations or Revenue Rulings could impose
requirements that are not reflected in the Contract. The Company, however, has
reserved certain rights to alter the Contract and investment alternatives so as
to comply with such regulations or Revenue Rulings. Since the regulations or
Revenue Rulings have not been issued, there can be no assurance as to the
content of such regulations or Revenue Rulings or even

                                       (3)
<PAGE>   69

whether application of the regulations or Revenue Rulings will be prospective.
For these reasons, Owners are urged to consult with their own tax advisers.

QUALIFIED PLANS

     The Contract is designed for use with several types of Qualified Plans. The
tax rules applicable to participants in such Qualified Plans vary according to
the type of plan and the terms and conditions of the plan itself. Moreover, many
of these tax rules were changed by the Tax Reform Act of 1986. Therefore, no
attempt is made herein to provide more than general information about the use of
the Contract with the various types of Qualified Plans. Participants under such
Qualified Plans as well as Owners, Annuitants, and Beneficiaries are cautioned
that the rights of any person to any benefits under such Qualified Plans may be
subject to the terms and conditions of the plans themselves, regardless of the
terms and conditions of the Contract issued in connection therewith. Following
are brief descriptions of the various types of Qualified Plans and of the use of
the Contract in connection therewith. Purchasers of the Contract should seek
competent advice concerning the terms and conditions of the particular Qualified
Plan and use of the Contract with that plan.

H.R. 10 PLANS

     The Self-Employed Individuals Tax Retirement Act of 1962, as amended, which
is commonly referred to as "H.R. 10," permits self-employed individuals to
establish Qualified Plans for themselves and their employees. The tax
consequences to participants under such plans depend upon the plan itself. In
addition, such plans are limited by law to maximum permissible contributions,
distribution dates, and tax rates applicable to distributions. In order to
establish such a plan, a plan document, usually in prototype form pre-approved
by the Internal Revenue Service, is adopted and implemented by the employer.

INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS AND ANNUITIES

     Section 408 of the Code permits eligible individuals to contribute to
individual retirement programs known as "Individual Retirement Accounts" and
"Individual Retirement Annuities." These Individual Retirement Accounts and
Annuities are subject to limitations on the amounts which may be contributed,
the persons who may be eligible, and on the time when distributions may
commence. In addition, distributions from certain types of Qualified Plans may
be placed on a tax-deferred basis into an Individual Retirement Account or
Annuity.

CORPORATE PENSION AND PROFIT-SHARING PLANS

     Sections 401(a) and 403(a) of the Code permit corporate employers to
establish various types of retirement plans for employees. Such retirement plans
may permit the purchase of the Contract to provide benefits under the plans.

CERTAIN GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES

     Section 457 of the Code permits certain governmental entities to establish
deferred contribution plans. Such deferred contribution plans may permit the
purchase of the Contract to provide benefits under the plans.

                                PERFORMANCE DATA

MONEY MARKET SUBACCOUNT

     For the seven-day period ended December 31, 1998, the yield was 3.68% and
the effective yield was 3.74%.

     The yield is calculated by dividing the result of subtracting the value of
one Unit at the end of the seven day period ("Seventh Day Value") from the value
of one Unit at the beginning of the seven day period ("First Day Value") by the
First Day Value (the resulting quotient being the "Base Period Return") and
multiplying the Base Period Return by 365 divided by 7 to obtain the annualized
yield.

     The effective yield was calculated by compounding the Base Period Return
calculated in accordance with the preceding paragraph, adding 1 to the Base
Period Return, raising that sum to a power equal to 365 divided by 7 and
subtracting 1 from the result.

     As the Money Market Subaccount invests only in shares of the Money Market
Portfolio of the Fund, the First Day Value reflects the per share net asset
value of the Money Market Portfolio (which will normally be $1.00) and the
number of shares of the Money Market Portfolio of the Fund held in the Money
Market Subaccount. The Seventh Day Value reflects increases or decreases in the
number of shares of the Money Market Portfolio of the Fund held in the Money
Market Subaccount due to the declaration of dividends (in the form of shares and
including dividends (in the form of shares) on shares received as dividends) of
the net investment income and the daily charges and deductions from the
Subaccount for mortality and expense risks and a deduction for the Annual
Contract Charge imposed on each Contract Anniversary which has been pro-rated to
reflect the shortened 7-day period and allocated to the Money Market Subaccount
in the proportion that the total value of the Money Market Subaccount bore to
the total value of the Variable Account at the end of the period indicated. Net
investment income reflects earnings on investments less expenses of the Fund
including the Investment Advisory Fee (which for calculating the yield and
effective yield quoted above is assumed to be .40 percent, the fee which would
be charged based upon the amount of assets under management on the last day of
the period for which the quoted yield is stated). Not reflected in either the
yield or effective yield are surrender charges, which will not exceed 7% of
total Purchase Payments made in the Contract Year of surrender and the preceding
7 Contract Years.

MONY America Variable Account A commenced operations on November 25, 1987. Total
return for the period since inception reflects the average annual total return
since the inception (commencement of operations) of each of the respective
Subaccounts, which is August 1988 for the Equity and Managed Subaccounts,
September 1988 for the Small Company Value Subaccount, January 1988 for the
Intermediate Term Bond Subaccount, February 1988 for the Long Term Bond
Subaccount, November 1994 for the Government Securities Subaccount, November
1994 for the International Growth and for the High Yield Bond Subaccounts and
November 1998 for the Equity Income, Growth and Income, Growth, Capital
Appreciation, and Small Company Growth Subaccounts, adjusted to reflect the
charges and expenses imposed by the Contract. Total return is not indicative of
future performance.

     The table above assumes that a $1,000 payment was made to each Subaccount
at the beginning of the period shown, that no further payments were made, that
any distributions from the corresponding Portfolio of the Funds were reinvested,
and that the Owner surrendered the Contract for cash, rather than electing
commencement of annuity benefits in the form of one of the Settlement Options
available, at the end of the period shown. The average annual total return
percentages shown in the table reflect the historical rates of return,
deductions for all charges, expenses, and fees of both the Funds (including the
Investment Advisory Fees described in the Prospectus (see "Investment Advisory
Fee" at page 22) and the Variable Account which would be imposed on the payment
assumed, including a contingent deferred sales (Surrender) charge imposed as a
result of the full surrender allocated to each Subaccount in the proportion that
the total value of that Subaccount bore to the total value of the Variable
Account at the end of the period indicated.

The 30-day yield is not indicative of future results.

     For the Intermediate Term Bond, and Long Term Bond, Government Securities,
and High Yield Bond Portfolios, net investment income is the net of interest
earned on the obligation held by the Portfolio and expenses accrued for the
period. Interest earned on the obligation is determined by (i) computing the
yield to

                                       (7)

maturity based on the market value of each obligation held in the corresponding
Portfolio at the close of business on the thirtieth day of the period (or as to
obligations purchased during that 30-day period, based on the purchase price
plus accrued interest); (ii) dividing the yield to maturity for each obligation
by 360; (iii) multiplying that quotient by the market value of each obligation
(including actual accrued interest) for each day of the subsequent 30-day month
that the obligation is in the Portfolio; and (iv) totaling the interest
except, in the case of the column headed "Contract Continues In Force", no
contingent deferred sales (surrender) charge or annual contract charge has been
deducted:

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors of
MONY Life Insurance Company of America and the
Contractholders of MONY America Variable Account A -- MONY Custom Master:

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities and the
related statements of operations and of changes in net assets present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of each of the respective
subaccounts constituting MONY America Variable Account A (comprising MONY Custom
Master's Intermediate Term Bond, Long Term Bond, Government Securities, Money
Market, Equity, Small Company Value, Managed, International Growth, High Yield
Bond, Growth, Growth and Income, Small Company Growth, Equity Income, and
Capital Appreciation Subaccounts) at December 31, 1998, and the results of each
of their operations and the changes in each of their net assets for the periods
presented, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the MONY Life Insurance Company
of America's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
which 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, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities at December 31, 1998 by correspondence with the
custodian, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

                               VARIABLE ACCOUNT A

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

     MONY America Variable Account A (the "Variable Account") is a separate
investment account established on March 27, 1987 by MONY Life Insurance Company
of America ("MONY America"), under the laws of the State of Arizona.

     The Variable Account operates as a unit investment trust under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"). The Variable Account holds
assets that are segregated from all of MONY America's other assets and, at
present, is used only to support flexible payment variable annuity policies
(MONYMaster, ValueMaster and MONY Custom Master). These policies are issued by
MONY America, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MONY Life Insurance Company
("MONY"). For presentation purposes, the information related only to MONY Custom
Master is presented here.

     There are currently fourteen MONY Custom Master subaccounts within the
Variable Account, and each invests only in a corresponding portfolio of the MONY
Series Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") or the Enterprise Accumulation Trust
("Enterprise") (collectively, the "Funds"). The Funds are registered under the
1940 Act as open end, diversified, management investment companies.

     A full presentation of the related financial statements and footnotes of
the Fund and Enterprise are contained on pages hereinafter and should be read in
conjunction with these financial statements.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  Investments:

     The investment in shares of each of the respective Funds' portfolios is
stated at value which is the net asset value of each portfolio. Except for the
Money Market Portfolio, net asset value is based upon market valuations of the
securities held in each of the corresponding portfolios of the Funds. For the
Money Market Portfolio, the net asset value is based on the amortized cost of
the securities held which approximates value.

  Taxes:

     MONY America is currently taxed as a life insurance company and will
include the Variable Account's operations in its tax return. MONY America does
not expect, based upon current tax law, to incur any income tax burden upon the
earnings or realized capital gains attributable to the Variable Account. Based
on this expectation, no charges are currently being deducted from the Variable
Account for Federal income tax purposes.

3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     MONY America is the legal owner of the assets of the Variable Account.

     Purchase payments received from MONY America by the Variable Account
represent gross purchase payments recorded by MONY America less deductions
retained for any premium taxes.

     MONY America receives from the Variable Account the amounts deducted for
mortality and expense risks at an annual rate of 1.25 percent of average daily
net assets of the subaccounts. As investment adviser to the Fund, it receives
amounts paid by the Fund for those services.

     Enterprise Capital Management, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of MONY,
acts as investment adviser to Enterprise, and it receives amounts paid by
Enterprise for those services.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors of
MONY Life Insurance Company of America

     In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheets and the related statements
of income and comprehensive income, changes in shareholder's equity and cash
flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of MONY
Life Insurance Company of America (the "Company") at December 31, 1998 and 1997,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
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, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

     As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company adopted in
1996, Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 120 (SFAS 120) and
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 40 (FIN
40) which required implementation of several accounting pronouncements not
previously adopted. The effects of adopting SFAS 120 and FIN 40 were
retroactively applied to the Company's previously issued financial statements,
consistent with the implementation guidance of those standards.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS:

     MONY Life Insurance Company of America (the "Company"), an Arizona stock
life insurance company, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MONY Life Insurance
Company of New York (MONY Life), a stock life insurance company. MONY Life is a
wholly owned subsidiary of The MONY Group, Inc. (the "MONY Group").

     The Company's primary business is to provide asset accumulation and life
insurance products to business owners, growing families, and pre-retirees. The
Company's insurance and financial products are marketed and distributed directly
to individuals primarily through MONY Life's career agency sales force. These
products are sold throughout the United States (except New York) and Puerto
Rico.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

  Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Prior to 1996, the Company,
as a wholly-owned stock insurance subsidiary of a mutual life insurance company
(MONY Life), prepared its financial statements in conformity with accounting
practices prescribed or permitted by the Arizona State Insurance Department
("SAP"), which accounting practices were considered to be GAAP for mutual life
insurance companies and their wholly-owned stock insurance subsidiaries. As of
January 1, 1996, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board
("FASB") Interpretation No. 40, Applicability of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles to Mutual Life Insurance and Other Enterprises (the
"Interpretation"), and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.
120, Accounting and Reporting by Mutual Life Insurance Enterprises and by
Insurance Enterprises for Certain Long Duration Participating Policies (the
"Standard"). The Interpretation and the Standard require mutual life insurance
companies and their wholly-owned stock insurance subsidiaries to adopt all
applicable authoritative GAAP pronouncements in their general purpose financial
statements. Accordingly, the initial effect of applying the Interpretation and
the Standard has been reported retroactively through the restatement of
previously issued financial statements presented herein for comparative purposes
(see Note 13).

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 significantly
from those estimates. The most significant estimates made in conjunction with
the preparation of the Company's financial statements include those used in
determining (i) deferred policy acquisition costs, (ii) the liability for future
policy benefits, and (iii) valuation allowances for mortgage loans and real
estate to be disposed of, and impairment writedowns for real estate held for
investment.

     During 1997, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive
Income, which was issued by the FASB in June of 1997. SFAS No. 130 established
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components
in general purpose financial statements. All periods presented herein reflect
the provisions of SFAS No. 130.

  Valuation of Investments and Realized Gains and Losses

     All of the Company's fixed maturity securities are classified as
available-for-sale and are reported at estimated fair value. Unrealized gains
and losses on fixed maturity securities are reported as a separate component of
other comprehensive income, net of deferred income taxes and an adjustment for
the effect on deferred policy acquisition costs that would have occurred if such
gains and losses had been realized. The cost of fixed maturity securities is
adjusted for impairments in value deemed to be other than temporary. These

                                      F-18
<PAGE>   92
                     MONY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

adjustments are reflected as realized losses on investments. Realized gains and
losses on sales of investments are determined on the basis of specific
identification.

     Mortgage loans on real estate are stated at their unpaid principal
balances, net of valuation allowances. Valuation allowances are established for
the excess of the carrying value of a mortgage loan over its estimated fair
value when the loan is considered to be impaired. Mortgage loans are considered
to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable
that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the
contractual terms of the loan agreement. Estimated fair value is based on either
the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's
original effective interest rate, or the loan's observable market price (if
considered to be a practical expedient), or the fair value of the collateral if
the loan is collateral dependent and if foreclosure of the loan is considered
probable. The provision for loss is reported as a realized loss on investment.
Loans in foreclosure and loans considered to be impaired, other than
restructured loans, are placed on non-accrual status. Interest received on
non-accrual status mortgage loans is included in investment income in the period
received. Interest income on restructured mortgage loans is accrued at the
restructured loans' interest rate.

     Real estate held for investment, as well as related improvements, are
generally stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is determined using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset (which may
range from 5 to 40 years). Cost is adjusted for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not
be recoverable. In performing the review for recoverability, management
estimates the future cash flows expected from real estate investments, including
the proceeds on disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash
flows is less than the carrying amount of the real estate, an impairment loss is
recognized. Impairment losses are based on the estimated fair value of the real
estate, which is generally computed using the present value of expected future
cash flows from the real estate discounted at a rate commensurate with the
underlying risks. Real estate acquired in satisfaction of debt is recorded at
estimated fair value at the date of foreclosure. Real estate that management
intends to sell is classified as "to be disposed of". Real estate to be disposed
of is reported at the lower of its current carrying value or estimated fair
value less estimated sales costs. Changes in reported values relating to real
estate to be disposed of and impairments of real estate held for investment are
reported as realized gains or losses on investments.

     Policy loans are carried at their unpaid principal balances.

     Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks and
highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of three months or
less.

  Recognition of Insurance Revenue and Related Benefits

     Premiums from universal life and investment-type contracts are reported as
deposits to policyholders' account balances. Revenue from these types of
products consists of amounts assessed during the period against policyholders'
account balances for policy administration charges, cost of insurance and
surrender charges. Policy benefits charged to expense include benefit claims
incurred in the period in excess of the related policyholders' account balance.

     Premiums from non-participating term life and annuity policies with life
contingencies are recognized as premium income when due. Benefits and expenses
are matched with such income so as to result in the recognition of profits over
the life of the contracts. This match is accomplished by means of the provision
for liabilities for future policy benefits and the deferral and subsequent
amortization of policy acquisition costs.

  Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs ("DAC")

     The costs of acquiring new business, principally commissions, underwriting,
agency, and policy issue expenses, all of which vary with and are primarily
related to the production of new business, are deferred.
                                      F-19
<PAGE>   93
                     MONY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     For universal life products and investment-type products, DAC is amortized
over the expected life of the contracts (ranging from 15 to 30 years) as a
constant percentage based on the present value of estimated gross profits
expected to be realized over the life of the contracts using the initial
locked-in contract rate. The contract rate for all products is 8 percent.
Estimated gross profits arise principally from investment results, mortality and
expense margins and surrender charges.

     For non-participating term policies, DAC is amortized over the expected
life of the contracts (ranging from 5 to 20 years) based on the present value of
the estimated gross premiums.

     DAC is subject to recoverability testing at the time of policy issuance and
loss recognition testing at the end of each accounting period. The effect on the
amortization of DAC of revisions in estimated experience is reflected in
earnings in the period such estimates are revised. In addition, the effect on
the DAC asset that would result from the realization of unrealized gains
(losses) is recognized through an offset to Other Comprehensive Income as of the
balance sheet date.

  Policyholders' Account Balances and Future Policy Benefits

     Policyholders' account balances for universal life and investment-type
contracts represent an accumulation of gross premium payments plus credited
interest less expense and mortality charges and withdrawals. The weighted
average interest crediting rate for universal life products was approximately
5.7%, 5.8%, and 5.8% for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996,
respectively. The weighted average interest crediting rate for investment-type
products was approximately 5.6% for each of the years ended December 31, 1998,
1997, and 1996, respectively.

     GAAP reserves for non-participating term life policies are calculated using
a net level premium method on the basis of actuarial assumptions equal to
expected investment yields, mortality, terminations, and expenses applicable at
the time the insurance contracts are made, including a provision for the risk of
adverse deviation.

  Federal Income Taxes

     The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return with its parent,
MONY Life, along with MONY Life's other life and non-life subsidiaries. Deferred
income tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the difference between
financial statement carrying amounts and income tax bases of assets and
liabilities using enacted income tax rates and laws.

     The method of allocation between the companies is subject to written
agreement, approved by the Board of Directors. The allocation of federal income
taxes will be based upon separate return calculations with current credit for
losses and other federal income tax credits provided to the life insurance
members of the affiliated group. Intercompany balances are settled annually in
the fourth quarter of the year in which the return is filed.

  Reinsurance

     The Company has reinsured certain of its life insurance and annuity
business with life contingencies with MONY Life and other insurance companies
under various agreements. Amounts due from reinsurers are estimated based on
assumptions consistent with those used in establishing the liabilities related
to the underlying reinsured contracts. Policy and contract liabilities are
reported gross of reserve credits. Gains on reinsurance are deferred and
amortized into income over the remaining life of the underlying reinsured
contracts.

     The reinsurer's investment in a reinsurance contract consists of amounts
paid to the ceding company at the inception of the contract (e.g. expense
allowances and the excess of liabilities assumed by the reinsurer over the
assets transferred to the reinsurer under the contract) plus the amount of
capital required to support such business consistent with prudent business
practices, regulatory requirements, and the reinsurer's credit rating. The

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

Company estimates the capital required to support such business based on what it
considers to be an appropriate level of risk-based capital in light of
regulatory requirements and prudent business practices.

  Separate Accounts

     Separate accounts are established in conformity with insurance laws and are
generally not chargeable with liabilities that arise from any other business of
the Company. Separate account assets are subject to general account claims only
to the extent that the value of such assets exceeds the separate account
liabilities. Investments held in separate accounts and liabilities of the
separate accounts are reported separately as assets and liabilities.
Substantially all separate account assets are reported at estimated fair value.
Investment income and gains or losses on the investments of separate accounts
accrue directly to contractholders and, accordingly, are not reflected in the
Company's statements of income and cash flows. Fees charged to the separate
accounts by the Company (including mortality charges, policy administration fees
and surrender charges) are reflected in the Company's revenues.

  Statements of Cash Flows -- Non-cash Transactions

     For the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively, real
estate of $0.5 million, $0.0 million, and $0.0 million was acquired in
satisfaction of debt. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company owned real
estate acquired in satisfaction of debt of $8.0 million and $21.7 million,
respectively.

  New Accounting Pronouncements

     In January 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
issued Statement of Position (SOP) 97-3, "Accounting by Insurance and Other
Enterprises for Insurance-Related Assessments". SOP 97-3 provides guidance for
determining when an entity should recognize a liability for guaranty fund and
other insurance-related assessments and when it may recognize an asset for a
portion or all of the assessment liability or paid assessment that can be
recovered through premium tax offsets or policy surcharges. SOP 97-3 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. Adoption of SOP
97-3 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial
condition or results of operations.

     In June 1998, The FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133 requires all derivatives to be
recognized in the statement of financial position as either assets or
liabilities and measured at fair value. The corresponding derivative gains and
losses should be reported based on the hedge relationship that exists, if there
is one. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are not designated as
hedges or that do not meet the hedge accounting criteria in SFAS 133, are
required to be reported in earnings. SFAS 133 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 1999. Adoption of SFAS 133 is not expected to have a
material effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

3.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

     MONY Life has guaranteed to certain states that the statutory surplus of
the Company will be maintained at amounts at least equal to the minimum surplus
for admission to those states.

     At December 31, 1998 and 1997, approximately 23% and 26% of the Company's
investments in mortgages were held through joint participation with MONY Life,
respectively. In addition, 100% of the Company's real estate and joint venture
investments were held through joint participation with MONY Life at December 31,
1998 and 1997.

     The Company and MONY Life are parties to an agreement whereby MONY Life
agrees to reimburse the Company to the extent that the Company's recognized loss
as a result of mortgage loan default or foreclosure or subsequent sale of the
underlying collateral exceeds 75 percent of the appraised value of the loan at
origination

for each such mortgage loan. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company received
payments from MONY Life of $0.1 million in each of the years ending December 31,
1998, 1997 and 1996.

     The Company has a service agreement with MONY Life whereby MONY Life
provides personnel services, facilities, supplies and equipment to the Company
to conduct its business. The associated costs related to the service agreement
are allocated to the Company based on methods that management believes are
reasonable, including a review of the nature of such costs and time studies
analyzing the amount of employee compensation costs incurred by the Company. For
the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, the Company incurred expenses
of $63.6 million, $37.1 million and $32.3 million as a result of such
allocations. The allocated costs, however, are only partially reimbursable to
MONY Life by the Company. Accordingly, the Company recorded capital
contributions from MONY Life of $12.5 million, $10.8 million, and $13.4 million
during 1998, 1997 and 1996 respectively. At December 31, 1998 and 1997 the
Company had a payable to MONY Life in connection with this service agreement of
$9.0 million and $10.7 million, respectively, which is reflected in Accounts
Payable and Other Liabilities.

     The Company has an investment advisory agreement with MONY Life whereby
MONY Life provides investment advisory services with respect to the investment
and management of the Company's investment portfolio. The amount of expenses
incurred by the Company related to this agreement was $0.9 million; $1.0 million
and $0.7 million for 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. In addition, the Company
recorded an intercompany payable of $88,401 and $81,414 at December 31, 1998 and
1997, respectively, related to this agreement which is included in Accounts
payable and other liabilities in the balance sheet.

     In addition to the agreements discussed above, the Company has various
other service and investment advisory agreements with MONY Life and affiliates
of the Company. The amount of expenses incurred by the Company related to these
agreements was $2.0 million, $2.6 million and $2.6 million for 1998, 1997 and
1996, respectively. In addition, the Company recorded an intercompany
(receivable)/payable of $(0.2) million and $0.3 million at December 31, 1998 and
1997, respectively, related to these agreements.

     The Company is required to establish a valuation allowance for any portion
of the deferred tax asset that management believes will not be realized. In the
opinion of management, it is more likely than not that it will realize the
benefit of the deferred tax assets and, therefore, no such valuation allowance
has been established.

     Impaired mortgage loans that do not have valuation allowances are loans
where the net present value of the expected future cash flows related to the
loan or the fair value of the collateral equals or exceeds the recorded
investment in the loan. Such loans primarily consist of restructured loans or
loans on which impairment writedowns were taken prior to the adoption of SFAS
No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan".

     During 1998 and 1997, the average recorded investment in impaired mortgage
loans was approximately $15.1 million and $16.3 million, respectively. During
1998, 1997, and 1996, the Company recognized $1.1 million, $1.1 million, and
$1.4 million, respectively, of interest income on impaired loans.

     At December 31, 1998 and 1997, there were no mortgage loans which were
non-income producing for the twelve months preceding such dates.

     At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had restructured mortgage loans
of $14.3 million and $13.5 million, respectively. Interest income of $1.0
million, $1.0 million, and $1.2 million was recognized on restructured mortgage
loans in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Gross interest income on these
loans that would have been recorded in accordance with the original terms of
such loans amounted to approximately $1.4 million in 1998, 1997 and 1996.

     Real estate is net of accumulated depreciation of $1.9 million and $2.8
million for 1998 and 1997, respectively, and depreciation expense recorded was
$0.6 million, $0.4 million and $0.8 million for the years ended December 31,
1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

     At December 31, 1998 and 1997, there was no real estate which was
non-income producing for the twelve months preceding such dates.

     The carrying value of impaired real estate as of December 31, 1998 and 1997
was $8.3 million and $2.8 million, respectively. The depreciated cost of such
real estate as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 was $10.2 million and $3.3 million
before impairment writedowns of $1.9 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The
aforementioned impairments occurred primarily as a result of low occupancy
levels and other market related factors. There were no losses recorded during
1998, 1997, and 1996 related to impaired real estate.

9.  ESTIMATED FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

     The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments
approximate their carrying amounts. The methods and assumptions utilized in
estimating the fair values of the Company's financial instruments are summarized
as follows:

  Fixed Maturities

     The estimated fair values of fixed maturity securities are based upon
quoted market prices, where available. The fair values of fixed maturity
securities not actively traded and other non-publicly traded securities are
estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services or, in the
case of private placements, by discounting expected future cash flows using a
current market interest rate commensurate with the credit quality and term of
the investments.

  Mortgage Loans

     The fair values of mortgage loans are estimated by discounting expected
future cash flows, using current interest rates for similar loans to borrowers
with similar credit risk. Loans with similar characteristics are aggregated for
purposes of the calculations. The fair value of mortgages in process of
foreclosure is the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral.

  Policy Loans

     Policy loans are an integral component of insurance contracts and have no
maturity dates. Management has determined that it is not practicable to estimate
the fair value of policy loans.

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

  Separate Account Assets and Liabilities

     The estimated fair value of assets held in Separate Accounts is based on
quoted market prices. The fair value of liabilities related to Separate Accounts
is the amount payable on demand, which includes surrender charges.

  Investment-Type Contracts

     The fair values of annuities are based on estimates of the value of
payments available upon full surrender. The fair values of the Company's
liabilities under guaranteed investment contracts are estimated by discounting
expected cash outflows using interest rates currently offered for similar
contracts with maturities consistent with those remaining for the contracts
being valued.

10.  REINSURANCE:

     Life insurance business is ceded on a yearly renewable term basis under
various reinsurance contracts. The Company's general practice is to retain no
more than $0.5 million of risk on any one person for individual products and
$0.5 million for last survivor products.

     The following table summarizes the effect of reinsurance for the years
indicated ($ in millions):

     The Company is contingently liable with respect to ceded insurance should
any reinsurer be unable to meet its obligations under these agreements. To limit
the possibility of such losses, the Company evaluates the financial condition of
its reinsurers and monitors concentration of credit risk.

11.  OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK:

  Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk:

     Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with a major financial
institution, the Company from time to time lends securities to approved
borrowers. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, securities loaned by the Company under
this agreement had a carrying value of approximately $4.1 million and $0.1
million, respectively. The minimum collateral on securities loaned is 102
percent of the market value of the loaned securities. Such securities are marked
to market on a daily basis and the collateral is correspondingly increased or
decreased.

  Concentration of Credit Risk:

     At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had no single investment or
series of investments with a single issuer, (excluding US Treasury securities
and obligations of U.S. government agencies) exceeding 1.5% of total cash and
invested assets.

     The Company's fixed maturity securities are diversified by industry type.
The industries that comprise 10% or more of the carrying value of the fixed
maturity securities at December 31, 1998 are Consumer Goods and Services of
$138.5 million (13.3%), Non-Government Asset/Mortgage-Backed of $124.5 million
(11.9%), Public Utilities of $123.2 million (11.8%), Financial Services of
$119.8 million (11.5%), Other Manufacturing of $116.4 million (11.1%),
Government and Agencies of $113.6 million (10.9%), and Energy of $112.1 million
(10.7%).

     At December 31, 1997 the industries that comprise 10% or more of the
carrying value Company's fixed maturity securities were Financial Services of
$136.1 million (12.4%), Non-Government Asset/Mortgage Backed of $132.0 million
(12.0%), Government and Agencies of $131.9 million (12.0%), Energy of $131.2
million (11.9%), Public Utilities of $126.7 million (11.5%), and Consumer Goods
and Services of $121.4 million (11.1%).

     The Company holds below investment grade fixed maturity securities with a
carrying value of $52.3 million at December 31, 1998. These investments consist
mostly of privately issued bonds which are monitored by the Company through
extensive internal analysis of the financial condition of the issuers and which
generally include protective debt covenants. At December 31, 1997, the carrying
value of the Company's investments in below investment grade fixed maturity
securities amounted to $79.2 million.

     The Company has investments in commercial and agricultural mortgage loans
and real estate (including partnerships). The locations of property
collateralizing mortgage loans and real estate investment carrying values at
December 31, 1998 and 1997 are as follows ($ in millions):

12.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

     (a) In late 1995 and thereafter, a number of purported class actions were
commenced in various state and federal courts against MONY Life and the Company
("the Companies") alleging that the Companies engaged in deceptive sales
practices in connection with the sale of whole and/or universal life insurance
policies in the 1980s

                                      F-30
<PAGE>   104
                     MONY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

and 1990s. Although the claims asserted in each case are not identical, they
seek substantially the same relief under essentially the same theories of
recovery (i.e., breach of contract, fraud, negligent misrepresentation,
negligent supervision and training, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment
and/or violation of state insurance and/or deceptive business practice laws).
Plaintiffs in these cases (including the Goshen case discussed below) seek
primarily equitable relief (e.g., reformation, specific performance, mandatory
injunctive relief prohibiting the Company from canceling policies for failure to
make required premium payments, imposition of a constructive trust and/or
creation of a claims resolution facility to adjudicate any individual issues
remaining after resolution of all class-wide issues) as opposed to compensatory
damages, although they also seek compensatory damages in unspecified amounts.
The Company has answered the complaints in each action (except for one recently
filed action and another being voluntarily held in abeyance), has denied any
wrongdoing and has asserted numerous affirmative defenses.

     On June 7, 1996, the New York State Supreme Court certified the Goshen
case, being the first of the aforementioned class actions filed, as a nationwide
class consisting of all persons or entities who have, or at the time of the
policy's termination had, an ownership interest in a whole or universal life
insurance policy issued by the Companies and sold on an alleged "vanishing
premium" basis during the period January 1, 1982 to December 31, 1995. On March
27, 1997, the Company filed a motion to dismiss or, alternatively, for summary
judgment on all counts of the complaint. All of the other putative class actions
(with one exception discussed below) have been consolidated and transferred by
the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation to the United States District
Court for the District of Massachusetts, or are being voluntarily held in
abeyance pending the outcome of the Goshen case. The Massachusetts District
Court in the Multidistrict Litigation has entered an order essentially holding
all of the federal cases in abeyance pending the outcome of the Goshen case. On
October 21, 1997, the New York State Supreme Court granted the Companies' motion
for summary judgment and dismissed all claims filed in the Goshen case against
the Companies' on the merits.

     In addition to the foregoing, from time to time the Company is a party to
litigation and arbitration proceedings in the ordinary course of its business,
none of which is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

     Insurance companies are subject to assessments, up to statutory limits, by
state guaranty funds for losses of policyholders of insolvent insurance
companies. In the opinion of management, such assessments will not have a
material adverse effect on the financial position and the results of operations
of the Company.

     At December 31, 1998, the Company had commitments to issue $9.7 million of
fixed rate agricultural loans with periodic interest rate reset dates. The
initial interest rates on such loans range from approximately 6.75% to 7.50%.
The Company had no private fixed maturity securities commitments outstanding as
of December 31, 1998. In addition, at that date the Company had no outstanding
commitments to issue any fixed rate commercial mortgage loans.

     (b) The order, referred to above, by the New York State Supreme Court on
October 21, 1997 was affirmed by the New York State Appellate Division, First
Department on March 18, 1999. All actions before the United States District
Court for the District of Massachusetts are still pending. In addition, on or
about February 25, 1999, a purported class action was filed against the Company
in Kentucky State Court covering policyholders who purchased individual
universal life insurance policies from the Company after January 1, 1988
claiming breach of contract and violations of the Kentucky Consumer Protection
Act. On March 26, 1999, the Company removed that action to the United States
District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky, requested the Judicial
Panel on the multidistrict litigation to transfer the action to the
multidistrict litigation in the District of Massachusetts and sought a stay of
further proceedings in the Kentucky District Court pending a determination on
the multidistrict transfer. The Company intends vigorously to defend that
litigation. Due to the early stage of this litigation no determination can be
made as to whether the Company will incur any loss with respect to this matter.

13.  STATUTORY FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND REGULATORY RISK-BASED CAPITAL
DISCLOSURE:

     Financial statements of the Company prepared in accordance with SAP for
filing with the Arizona State Insurance Department (the "Department") differ
from financial statements of the Company prepared in accordance with GAAP. The
principal differences result from the following: (i) acquisition costs are
charged to operations as incurred under SAP rather than being amortized over the
expected life of the contracts under GAAP; (ii) certain assets designated as
"non-admitted assets" are charged directly to statutory surplus under SAP but
are reflected as assets under GAAP; (iii) federal income taxes are provided only
on taxable income for which income taxes are currently payable under SAP,
whereas under GAAP deferred income taxes are recognized; (iv) an interest
maintenance reserve ("IMR") and asset valuation reserve ("AVR") are computed
based on specific statutory requirements and recorded under SAP, whereas under
GAAP, such reserves are not recognized; (v) premiums for universal life and
investment-type products are recognized as revenue when due under SAP, whereas
under GAAP, such amounts are recorded as deposits and not included in the
Company's revenues; (vi) future policy benefit reserves are based on specific
statutory requirements regarding mortality and interest, without consideration
of withdrawals, and are reported net of reinsurance under SAP, whereas, under
GAAP, such reserves are calculated using a net level premium method based on
actuarial assumptions equal to guaranteed mortality rates and are reported gross
of reinsurance; (vii) investments in bonds are generally carried at amortized
cost under SAP, whereas under GAAP, such investments are classified as
"available for sale" and reported at estimated fair value; and (viii) methods
used for calculating real estate and mortgage loan impairments, valuation
allowances, and real estate depreciation under GAAP are different from those
permitted under SAP.

     The Company is restricted as to the amounts it may pay as dividends to MONY
Life. Under the Arizona Insurance Law, the Arizona Superintendent has broad
discretion to determine whether the financial condition of a stock life
insurance company would support the payment of dividends to its shareholders.
Under the insurance laws of the State of Arizona, the Company's state of
domicile, dividends or distributions in a twelve-month period exceeding the
lesser of either 10 percent of an insurance company's surplus or 100% of net
income, excluding realized gains, for the previous calendar year are generally
considered extraordinary and require such approval. Insurance Department has
established informal guidelines for the Superintendent's determinations which
focus upon, among other things, the overall financial condition and
profitability of the insurer under SAP.

     Set forth below are reconciliations of the Company's combined capital and
surplus and the net change in capital and surplus, determined in accordance with
SAP, with its equity and net income reported in accordance with GAAP as of and
for each year ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The
reconciliations for 1996 also present the effect of restating previously
reported amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 1996 for the adoption
of the Interpretation and the Standard (see Note 2).

     The difference between statutory basis "net income" and the "net change in
capital and surplus, and AVR" reflected in the reconciliation above primarily
relates to the AVR, unrealized gains (losses) on equity securities, non-admitted
assets, and certain contingency provisions. which for statutory reporting
purposes are charged directly to surplus and are not reflected in statutory
basis net income. Statutory net income reported by the Company for the years
ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996 was $11.1 million, $9.7 million, and
$8.0 million, respectively.

     In March 1998, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC")
voted to adopt its Codification of Statutory Accounting Principles project
(referred to hereafter as "codification"). Codification is a modified form of
statutory accounting principles that will result in changes to the current NAIC
Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual applicable to insurance enterprises.
Although adoption of codification by all states is not a certainty, the NAIC has
recommended that all states enact codification as soon as practicable with an
effective date of January 1, 2001. It is currently anticipated that codification
will become a NAIC state accreditation requirement starting in 2002. In
addition, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the NAIC
have agreed to continue to allow the use of certain permitted accounting
practices when codification becomes effective in 2001. Any accounting
differences from codification principles, however, must be disclosed and
quantified in the footnotes to the audited financial statements. Therefore,
codification will likely result in changes to what are currently considered
prescribed statutory insurance accounting practices.

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     Each insurance company's state of domicile imposes minimum risk-based
capital requirements. 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 the Company's regulatory total adjusted
capital, as defined by the NAIC, to its authorized control level risk-based
capital, as defined by the NAIC. Companies below specific trigger points or
ratios are classified within certain levels, each of which requires specified
corrective action. The Company exceeded the minimum risk based capital
requirements.

     As part of their routine regulatory oversight, the Department recently
completed an examination of the Company for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 1996. The report did not cite any matters which will
result in a material effect on the Company's financial condition or results of
operations.

controlled by or under common control with MONY Life Insurance Company of
America, showing the state or other sovereign power under the laws of which each
is organized and the percentage ownership of voting securities giving rise to
the control relationship. (See diagram on following page.) Omitted from the
diagram are subsidiaries of MONY that, considered in the aggregate, would not
constitute a "significant subsidiary" (as that term is defined in Rule 8b-2
under Section 8 of the Investment Company Act of 1940) of MONY.

ITEM 27.  NUMBER OF CONTRACT OWNERS:

     As of December 31, 1998 MONY America Variable Account A had 101,993 owners
of Contracts.

ITEM 28.  INDEMNIFICATION

     The By-Laws of MONY Life Insurance Company of America provide, in Article
VI as follows:

     SECTION 1.  The Corporation shall indemnify any existing or former
director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation against all expenses
incurred by them and each of them which may arise or be incurred, rendered or
levied in any legal action brought or threatened against any of them for or on
account of any action or omission alleged to have been committed while acting
within the scope of employment as director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation, whether or not any action is or has been filed against them and
whether or not any settlement or compromise is approved by a court, all subject
and pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation of this
Corporation.

     SECTION 2.  The indemnification provided in this By-Law shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be
entitled under By-Law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested
directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to
action in another capacity while holding office, and shall continue as to a
person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall
inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a
person.

     Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
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 is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification for such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expense incurred or
paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant, 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.

ITEM 29.  PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITERS

     (a) MONY Securities Corporation ("MSC") is the principal underwriter of the
Registrant and the Fund. The Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York ("MONY")
also acts as sub-investment adviser to the Fund through a services agreement.

MONY and MSC are listed on Schedules A and D of the respective Forms ADV for
MONY (Registration No. 801-13564), as filed with the Commission on December 20,
