REPRESENTATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS.
Note: The figures below present investment performance information for the
periods ended June 30, 2000. While these numbers represent the returns as of
that date, they do not represent performance information of the portfolios since
that date. Performance information for the periods after June 30, 2000 may be
different than the numbers shown below.
PART 1 - SEPARATE ACCOUNT PERFORMANCE
The portfolios listed below began operations before June 30, 2000. As a
result, performance information is available for the accumulation unit values
investing in these portfolios.
* Column A presents performance figures for the accumulation units which
reflect the insurance charges, the contract maintenance charge, the fees
and expenses of the investment portfolio, and assume that you make a
withdrawal at the end of the period and therefore the withdrawal charge is
<PAGE>
reflected.
* Column B presents performance figures for the accumulation units which
reflect the insurance charges as well as the fees and expenses of the
investment portfolio.
The inception dates shown below reflect the dates the Separate Account first
invested in the Portfolio. The performance returns for accumulation units
