                               PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

            On behalf of Nationwide Life Insurance Company, we are pleased to
            present the 1999 semi-annual report of the Nationwide VLI Separate
            Account-2.

            Equity investments performed well during the first half of 1999 with
            the major market indices showing double-digit gains. Fixed income
            investments did not fare as well during this period in the face of
            the Federal Reserve's inflation cautiousness. The Fed is mindful of
            the resilient U.S. economy and the increasingly tight labor pool
            that portends future wage inflation. Accordingly, we have seen a
            ratcheting-up of short-term interest rates to dampen the momentum of
            the current expansion. How aggressively the Fed may react to the
            perceived inflation threat only adds uncertainty to the already
            jittery equity markets. Over the long term, however, a slower but
            sustainable rate of growth, with low inflation, provides a favorable
            environment for further advances in financial assets.

            At mid-year, we are pleased to report that all the mission-critical
            systems used to service our variable annuity and variable life
            business have been internally inventoried, assessed and tested as
            being Year 2000 compliant. We are currently contacting our critical
            business partners to determine if they will be Year 2000 compliant.
            Contingency plans are being developed and are to be completed by the
            end of the third quarter. All these steps are being taken to assure
            that Nationwide Financial will be able to continue to serve your
            financial needs into the Year 2000 and beyond.

            Thank you for selecting Nationwide Financial to help you achieve
            your financial planning and retirement savings goals. You have our
            commitment to provide the consistent, high quality service you
            expect and deserve.


                              /s/ Joseph J. Gasper

                        NATIONWIDE VLI SEPARATE ACCOUNT-2

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                          JUNE 30, 1999, 1998 AND 1997
                                   (UNAUDITED)

(1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     (a) Organization and Nature of Operations

         The Nationwide VLISeparate Account-2 (the Account) was established
         pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of Nationwide Life
         Insurance Company (the Company) on May 7, 1987. The Account has been
         registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act
         of 1940.

         The Company offers Single Premium, Modified Single Premium, Flexible
         Premium and Last Survivor Flexible Premium Variable Life Insurance
         Policies through the Account. The primary distribution for the
         contracts is through the brokerage community; however, other
         distributors may be utilized.

     (b) The Contracts

         Prior to December 31, 1990, only contracts without a front-end sales
         charge, but with a contingent deferred sales charge and certain other
         fees, were offered for purchase. Beginning December 31, 1990, contracts
         with a front-end sales charge, a contingent deferred sales charge and
         certain other fees, are offered for purchase. See note 2 for a
         discussion of policy charges, and note 3 for asset charges.

</TABLE>

         At June 30, 1999, contract owners have invested in all of the above
         funds. The contract owners' equity is affected by the investment
         results of each fund, equity transactions by contract owners and
         certain contract expenses (see notes 2 and 3). The accompanying
         financial statements include only contract owners' purchase payments
         pertaining to the variable portions of their contracts and exclude any
         purchase payments for fixed dollar benefits, the latter being included
         in the accounts of the Company.

         A contract owner may choose from among a number of different underlying
         mutual fund options. The underlying mutual fund options are not
         available to the general public directly. The underlying mutual funds
         are available as investment options in variable life insurance policies
         or variable annuity contracts issued by life insurance companies or, in
         some cases, through participation in certain qualified pension or
         retirement plans.

         Some of the underlying mutual funds have been established by investment
         advisers which manage publicly traded mutual funds having similar names
         and investment objectives. While some of the underlying mutual funds
         may be similar to, and may in fact be modeled after, publicly traded
         mutual funds, the underlying mutual funds are not otherwise directly
         related to any publicly traded mutual fund. Consequently, the
         investment performance of publicly traded mutual funds and any
         corresponding underlying mutual funds may differ substantially.

     (c) Security Valuation, Transactions and Related Investment Income

         The market value of the underlying mutual funds is based on the closing
         net asset value per share at June 30, 1999. Fund purchases and sales
         are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is
         executed). The cost of investments sold is determined on a specific
         identification basis, and dividends (which include capital gain
         distributions) are accrued as of the ex-dividend date.

     (d) Federal Income Taxes

         Operations of the Account form a part of, and are taxed with,
         operations of the Company, which is taxed as a life insurance company
         under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.

         The Company does not provide for income taxes within the Account. Taxes
         are the responsibility of the contract owner upon termination or
         withdrawal.

     (e) Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
         accepted accounting principles may require management to make estimates
         and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
         liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, if
         any, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
         of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
         could differ from those estimates.

     (f) Reclassifications

         Certain 1997 amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current
period presentation.

(2)  POLICY CHARGES

     (a) Deductions from Premiums

         For single premium contracts, no deduction is made from any premium at
         the time of payment. On multiple payment contracts and flexible premium
         contracts, the Company deducts a charge for state premium taxes equal
         to 2.5% of all premiums received to cover the payment of these premium
         taxes. The Company also deducts a sales load from each premium payment
         received not to exceed 3.5% of each premium payment.

         On last survivor flexible premium contracts, the Company deducts a
         charge for state premium taxes equal to 3.5% of all premiums received
         to cover the payment of these premium taxes. The Company also deducts a
         sales load from each premium payment received not to exceed 5% of each
         premium payment during the first ten years and 1.5% of each premium
         payment thereafter.

         The Company may at its sole discretion reduce this sales loading.

     (b) Cost of Insurance

         A cost of insurance charge is assessed monthly against each contract by
         liquidating units. The amount of the charge is based upon age, sex,
         rate class and net amount at risk (death benefit less total contract
         value).

         For last survivor flexible premium contracts, the monthly cost of
         insurance is determined in a manner that reflects the anticipated
         mortality of the two insureds and the fact that the death benefit is
         not payable until the death of the second insured policyholder.

     (c) Administrative Charges

         An administrative charge is assessed against each contract to recover
         policy maintenance, accounting, record keeping and other administrative
         expenses and is assessed against each contract by liquidating units.

                                       21

<PAGE>   22

         For single premium contracts, the Company deducts an annual
         administrative charge which is determined as follows:

              Contracts issued prior to April 16, 1990:
                Purchase payments totalling less than $25,000 - $10/month
                Purchase payments totalling $25,000 or more - none

              Contracts issued on or after April 16, 1990:
                Purchase payments totalling less than $25,000 - $90/year
                ($65/year in New York)
                Purchase payments totalling $25,000 or more - $50/year

         For multiple payment contracts, the Company currently deducts a monthly
         administrative charge of $5 (may deduct up to $7.50, maximum).

         For flexible premium contracts, the Company currently deducts a monthly
         administrative charge of $12.50 during the first policy year and $5 per
         month thereafter (may deduct up to $7.50, maximum). Additionally, the
         Company deducts an increase charge of $2.04 per year per $1,000 applied
         to any increase in the specified amount during the first 12 months
         after the increase becomes effective.

         For modified single premium contracts, the monthly charge is equal to
         an annual rate of .30% multiplied by the policy's cash value. For
         policy years 11 and later, this monthly charge is reduced to an annual
         rate of 0.15% of the policy's cash value. The monthly charge is subject
         to a $10 minimum.

         For last survivor flexible premium contracts, the Company deducts a
         monthly administrative charge equal to the sum of the policy charge and
         the basic coverage charge. For policy years one through ten the policy
         charge is $10. Additionally, there is a $0.04 per $1000 basic coverage
         charge (not less than $20 or more than $80 per policy). For policy
         years eleven and after, the policy charge is $5. Additionally, there is
         a $0.02 per $1000 basic coverage charge (not less than $10 or more than
         $40 per policy). Additionally, the Company deducts a monthly increase
         charge of $2.40 per $1000 applied to any increase in the specified
         amount during the first 12 months after the increase becomes effective.
         The charge may be raised to $3.60 per $1000 of increase per year at the
         Company's discretion.

     (d) Surrender Charges

         Policy surrenders result in a redemption of the contract value from the
         Account and payment of the surrender proceeds to the contract owner or
         designee. The surrender proceeds consist of the contract value, less
         any outstanding policy loans, and less a surrender charge, if
         applicable. The charge is determined according to contract type.

         For single premium contracts, the charge is determined based upon a
         specified percentage of the original purchase payment. For single
         premium contracts issued prior to April 16, 1990, the charge is 8% in
         the first year and declines to 0% after the ninth year. For single
         premium contracts issued on or after April 16, 1990, the charge is 8.5%
         in the first year, and declines to 0% after the ninth year.

         For multiple payment contracts and flexible premium contracts, the
         amount charged is based upon a specified percentage of the initial
         surrender charge, which varies by issue age, sex and rate class. The
         charge is 100% of the initial surrender charge in the first year,
         declining to 0% after the ninth year.

         For modified single premium contracts, the amount charged is based on
         the original purchase payment. The charge is 10% in the first year,
         declining to 0% in the ninth year.

         For last survivor flexible premium contracts, the charge is 100% of the
         initial surrender charge, declining to 0% in the fourteenth year if the
         average issue age is 74 or less. The charge is 100% of the initial
         surrender charge, declining to 0% in the ninth year if the average
         issue age is 75 or greater. For last survivor flexible payment
         contracts, the initial surrender charge is comprised of two components,
         an underwriting surrender charge and a sales surrender charge.

         The Company may waive the surrender charge for certain contracts in
         which the sales expenses normally associated with the distribution of a
         contract are not incurred.

(3)  ASSET CHARGES

     For single premium contracts, the Company deducts a charge from the
     contract to cover mortality and expense risk charges related to operations,
     and to recover policy maintenance and premium tax charges. For contracts
     issued prior to April 16, 1990, the charge is equal to an annual rate of
     .95% during the first ten policy years, and .50% thereafter. A reduction of
     charges on these contracts is possible in policy years six through ten for
     those contracts achieving certain investment performance criteria. For
     single premium contracts issued on or after April 16, 1990, the charge is
     equal to an annual rate of 1.30% during the first ten policy years, and
     1.00% thereafter.

     For multiple payment contracts and flexible premium contracts, the Company
     deducts a charge equal to an annual rate of .80%, with certain exceptions,
     to cover mortality and expense risk charges related to operations. The
     above charges are assessed through the daily unit value calculation.

     For modified single premium contracts, the Company deducts an annual rate
     of .90% charged against the cash value of the contracts. This charge is
     assessed monthly against each contract by liquidating units.

     For last survivor flexible premium contracts, the Company deducts an annual
     rate of .80% in policy years one through ten. This charge is assessed
     monthly by liquidating units. In policy years eleven and greater, the
     Company deducts an annual rate of .80% if the cash value of the contract is
     less than $100,000. If the cash value is greater than or equal to $100,000,
     the Company reduces the annual asset fee rate to .30%.

     The following table provides mortality and expense risk charges by contract
     type for the period ended June 30, 1999

(4)  DEATH BENEFITS

     Death benefits result in a redemption of the contract value from the
     Account and payment of the death benefit proceeds, less any outstanding
     policy loans (and policy charges), to the legal beneficiary. For last
     survivor flexible premium contracts, the proceeds are payable on the death
     of the last surviving insured. The excess of the death benefit proceeds
     over the contract value on the date of death is paid by the Company's
     general account.

(5)  POLICY LOANS (NET OF REPAYMENTS)

     Contract provisions allow contract owners to borrow up to 90% (50% during
     first year of single and modified single premium contracts) of a policy's
     cash surrender value. For single premium contracts issued prior to April
     16, 1990, 6.5% interest is due and payable annually in advance. For single
     premium contracts issued on or after April 16, 1990, multiple payment,
     flexible premium, modified single and last survivor flexible premium
     contracts, 6% interest is due and payable in advance on the policy
     anniversary when there is a loan outstanding on the policy.

     At the time the loan is granted, the amount of the loan is transferred from
     the Account to the Company's general account as collateral for the
     outstanding loan. Collateral amounts in the general account are credited
     with the stated rate of interest in effect at the time the loan is made,
     subject to a guaranteed minimum rate. Loan repayments result in a transfer
     of collateral, including interest, back to the Account.

(6)  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     The Company performs various services on behalf of the Mutual Fund
     Companies in which the Account invests and may receive fees for the
     services performed. These services include, among other things, shareholder
     communications, preparation, postage, fund transfer agency and various
     other record keeping and customer service functions. These fees are paid to
     an affiliate of the Company.
