NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS EXCEPT FOR SHARE DATA UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(A) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Hartford Life
Insurance Company and subsidiaries ("Hartford Life Insurance Company" or the
"Company") have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures
which are normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the
disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments which
were normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. For a
description of significant accounting policies, see Note 2 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements in Hartford Life Insurance Company's 1998 Form
10-K Annual Report.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial information to
conform to the current year classification of transactions and accounts.
(B) CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 133". This statement amends SFAS No. 133 to defer its effective
date for one year, to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Initial
application for Hartford Life Insurance Company will begin for the first quarter
2001.
Effective January 1, 1999, Hartford Life Insurance Company adopted Statement of
Position (SOP) No. 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software
Developed or Obtained for Internal Use". This SOP provides guidance on
accounting for costs of internal use software and in determining whether
software is for internal use. The SOP defines internal use software as software
that is acquired, internally developed, or modified solely to meet internal
needs and identifies stages of software development and accounting for the
related costs incurred during the stages. Adoption of this SOP did not have a
material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
Effective January 1, 1999, Hartford Life Insurance Company adopted SOP No. 97-3,
"Accounting by Insurance and Other Enterprises for Insurance-Related
Assessments". This SOP addresses accounting by insurance and other enterprises
for assessments related to insurance activities, including recognition,
measurement and disclosure of guaranty fund or other assessments. Adoption of
this SOP did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or
results of operations.
2. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Hartford Life Insurance Company adopted SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information", during the fourth quarter of
1998. This statement replaces SFAS No. 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of
a Business Enterprise", and establishes new standards for reporting information
about operating segments in annual financial statements and in interim financial
reports issued to shareholders. It also establishes standards for related
disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers.
This statement requires that the reportable operating segments be based on the
Company's internal operations. On this basis, Hartford Life Insurance Company's
segments represent strategic operations which offer different products and
services as well as serve different markets.
Hartford Life Insurance Company is organized into three reportable operating
segments: Investment Products, Individual Life and Corporate Owned Life
Insurance (COLI). Investment Products offers individual variable annuities,
fixed market value adjusted (MVA) annuities and fixed and variable immediate
annuities, deferred compensation and retirement plan services, structured
settlement contracts and other special purpose annuity contracts. Individual
Life sells a variety of life insurance products, including variable life,
universal life, interest-sensitive whole life and term life insurance. COLI
primarily offers variable products used by employers to fund non-qualified
benefits or other post-employment benefit obligations as well as leveraged COLI.
The Company includes in "Other" corporate items not directly allocable to any of
its reportable operating segments as well as certain employee benefit products
including group life and disability insurance that is directly written by the
Company and is substantially ceded to its parent, Hartford Life and Accident
Insurance Company.
F-5
<PAGE>
The accounting policies of the reportable operating segments are the same as
those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 2 of
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Hartford Life Insurance Company's
1998 Form 10-K Annual Report. Hartford Life Insurance Company evaluates
performance of its segments based on revenues, net income and the segment's
return on allocated capital. The Company charges direct operating expenses to
the appropriate segment and allocates the majority of indirect expenses to the
segments based on an intercompany expense arrangement. Intersegment revenues are
not significant and primarily occur between corporate and the operating
segments. These amounts include interest income on allocated surplus and the
allocation of net realized capital gains and losses through net investment
income utilizing the duration of the segment's investment portfolios. The
following tables present summarized financial information concerning the
Company's segments.

3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
LITIGATION
Hartford Life Insurance Company is involved in pending and threatened litigation
in the normal course of its business in which claims for monetary and punitive
damages have been asserted. Although there can be no assurances, at the present
time the Company does not anticipate that the ultimate liability arising from
such pending or threatened litigation, after consideration of provisions made
for potential losses and costs of defense, will have a material adverse effect
on the financial condition or operating results of the Company.
(b) INVESTMENTS
In October 1998, the Company became aware of allegations of improper activities
at Commercial Financial Services Inc. ("CFS"), a securitizer and servicer of
asset backed securities, and on December 11, 1998, CFS filed for protection
under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. As a result, the Company recognized
$25, after-tax, writedown related to the asset backed securities during the
fourth quarter of 1998. In June 1999, CFS ceased operations at which time the
Company recognized an additional $28, after-tax, writedown. In August 1999, the
Company sold all of its CFS holdings at a nominal gain, recovering its June 30,
1999 amortized cost of $23.
(c) TAX MATTERS
Hartford Life Insurance Company's federal income tax returns are routinely
audited by the Internal Revenue Service. Management believes that adequate
provision has been made in the financial statements for items that may result
from tax examinations and other tax related matters.

Item 26. Persons Controlled By or Under Common Control with the Depositor or
Registrant
Filed herewith as Exhibit 16.
Item 27. Number of Contract Owners
As of December 31, 1999, there were 245,227 Contract Owners.
Item 28. Indemnification
Under Section 33-772 of the Connecticut General Statutes, unless
limited by its certificate of incorporation, the Registrant must
indemnify a director who was wholly successful, on the merits or
otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which he was a
party because he is or was a director of the corporation against
reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with the
proceeding.
The Registrant may indemnify an individual made a party to a
proceeding because he is or was a director against liability incurred
in the proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of
the Registrant, and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no
reason to believe his conduct was unlawful. Conn. Gen. Stat.
Section 33-771(a). Additionally, pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat.
Section 33-776, the Registrant may indemnify officers and employees or
agents for liability incurred and for any expenses to which they become
subject by reason of being or having been employees or officers of the
Registrant. Connecticut law does not prescribe standards for the
indemnification of officers, employees and agents and expressly
states that their indemnification may be broader than the right of
indemnification granted to directors.
The foregoing statements are specifically made subject to the
detailed provisions of Section 33-770 et seq.
Notwithstanding the fact that Connecticut law obligates the
Registrant to indemnify only a director that was successful on
the merits in a suit, under Article VIII, Section 1 of the
Registrant's bylaws, the Registrant must indemnify both directors
and officers of the Registrant for (1) any claims and liabilities
to which they become subject by reason of being or having been a
director or officer of the company and legal and (2) other
expenses incurred in defending against such claims, in each case,
to the extent such is consistent with statutory provisions.
<PAGE>
Additionally, the directors and officers of Hartford and Hartford
Securities Distribution Company, Inc. ("HSD") are covered under a
directors and officers liability insurance policy issued to The
Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Such
policy will reimburse the Registrant for any payments that it
shall make to directors and officers pursuant to law and will,
subject to certain exclusions contained in the policy, further pay
any other costs, charges and expenses and settlements and
judgments arising from any proceeding involving any director or
officer of the Registrant in his past or present capacity as such,
and for which he may be liable, except as to any liabilities
arising from acts that are deemed to be uninsurable.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities 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 against such liabilities (other than the payment
by the Registrant of expenses 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.

RE: PUTNAM CAPITAL MANAGER TRUST SEPARATE ACCOUNT
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
FILE NO. 333-91929
Dear Sir/Madam:
I have acted as General Counsel to Hartford Life Insurance Company (the
"Company"), a Connecticut insurance company, and Putnam Capital Manager Trust
Separate Account (the "Account") in Connecticut with the registration of an
indefinite amount of securities in the form of variable annuity contracts (the
"Contracts") with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended. I have examined such documents (including the Form N-4
registration statement) and reviewed such questions of law as I considered
necessary and appropriate, and on the basis of such examination and review, it
is my opinion that:
1. The Company is a corporation duly organized and validly existing as a
stock life insurance company under the laws of the State of Connecticut
and is duly authorized by the Insurance Department of the State of
Connecticut to issue the Contracts.
2. The Account is a duly authorized and existing separate account
established pursuant to the provisions of Section 38a-433 of the
Connecticut Statutes.
3. To the extent so provided under the Contracts, that portion of the assets
of the Account equal to the reserves and other contract liabilities with
respect to the Account will not be chargeable with liabilities arising
out of any other business that the Company may conduct.
4. The Contracts, when issued as contemplated by the Form N-4 Registration
Statement, will constitute legal, validly issued and binding obligations
of the Company.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Form N-4
registration statement for the Contracts and the Account.
Sincerely yours,
/S/ Lynda Godkin
