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 November 30, 1999, there were 157,640 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 becomes subject
          by reason of being or having been an 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 a only a director that was successful on the merits in a
          suit, under Article VIII, Section 1 of the Registrant Sections 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 directors or officers 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.

          Additionally, the directors and officers of Hartford and Hartford
          Securities Distribution Company, Inc. ("HSD") are covered under a
          directors and officers


<PAGE>


          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. 33-73566

Dear Sir/Madam:

I have acted as General Counsel to Hartford Life Insurance Company (the
"Company"), a Connecticut insurance company, and Hartford Life Insurance Company
Putnam Capital Manager Trust Separate Account (the "Account") in connection 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 validly 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,

/s/ Lynda Godkin
Lynda Godkin
