  This prospectus describes Pacific Select Exec--a Flexible Premium Variable
Life Insurance Policy (individually, the "Policy," and collectively, the
"Policies") offered by Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company ("Pacific
Mutual," "we," "us," or "our"). The Policy, for so long as it remains in
force, provides lifetime insurance protection on the Insured named in the
Policy through the Maturity Date. The Policy is designed to provide maximum
flexibility in connection with premium payments and death benefits by
permitting the Policy Owner ("Owner," "you" or "your"), subject to certain
restrictions, to vary the frequency and amount of premium payments and to
increase or decrease the death benefit payable under the Policy. This
flexibility allows you to provide for changing insurance needs under a single
insurance policy. A Policy may also be surrendered for its Cash Surrender
Value less outstanding Policy Debt.     
   
  Net premium payments may be allocated at your discretion to one or more of
the thirteen Investment Options available to you. Each of the twelve Variable
Investment Options ("Variable Account") is a subaccount of our separate
account called the Pacific Select Exec Separate Account (the "Separate
Account"). Any portion of a net premium allocated to one or more of the
Variable Accounts is invested in the corresponding portfolios of the Pacific
Select Fund (the "Fund"): the Money Market Portfolio, the High Yield Bond
Portfolio, the Managed Bond Portfolio, the Government Securities Portfolio,
the Growth Portfolio, the Aggressive Equity Portfolio, the Growth LT
Portfolio, the Equity Income Portfolio, the Multi-Strategy Portfolio, the
Equity Index Portfolio, the International Portfolio, and the Emerging Markets
Portfolio. A fixed option called the Fixed Account is also available. Your
Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account will accrue interest at an interest
rate that is guaranteed by us.     
 
  To the extent that all or a portion of net premium payments are allocated to
the Separate Account, the Accumulated Value under the Policy will vary based
upon the investment performance of the Variable Accounts to which the
Accumulated Value is allocated. No minimum amount of Accumulated Value is
guaranteed.
   
  The Policy also permits you to choose from two death benefit options: under
one option, the death benefit remains fixed at the Face Amount you choose (or,
if greater, it equals Accumulated Value multiplied by a certain percentage)
(Option A); under the other option, the death benefit equals the Face Amount
plus Accumulated Value (or, if greater, Accumulated Value multiplied by a
certain percentage) (Option B). Under the latter option, the death benefit
will vary daily with the investment performance of the Variable Accounts for
any Owner who has allocated Accumulated Value to the Variable Accounts. Under
either option, for so long as the Policy remains in force, the death benefit
will never be less than the current Face Amount.     
 
  A Policy may be returned according to the terms of its Free-Look Right (see
"Right to Examine aPolicy--Free-Look Right," page 21), during which time net
premium payments allocated to the Separate Account will be invested in the
Money Market Variable Account.
 
  It may not be advantageous to replace existing insurance with the Policy.
   
  This prospectus generally describes only the portion of the Policy involving
the Separate Account. For a brief summary of the Fixed Account, see "The Fixed
Account," page 31.

                                IMPORTANT TERMS
   
Accumulated Value--The total value of the amounts in the Investment Options
for the Policy as well as any amount set aside in the Loan Account to secure
Policy Debt as of any Valuation Date.     
Age--The Insured's age as of his or her nearest birthday as of the Policy
Date, increased by the number of complete Policy Years elapsed.

later designation to receive the death benefit proceeds upon the death of the
Insured.     
Cash Surrender Value--The Accumulated Value less the surrender charge.
Face Amount--The minimum death benefit for so long as the Policy remains in
force. The Face Amount may be increased or decreased under certain
circumstances.
   
Fixed Account--An account that is part of our General Account to which all or
a portion of net premium payments may be allocated for accumulation at a fixed
rate of interest (which may not be less than 4.0%) declared periodically by
us.

ends at the close of the next succeeding Valuation Date.
   
Variable Account--A separate account of ours or a subaccount of such a
separate account, which is used only to support the variable death benefits

Variable Account, Aggressive Equity Variable Account, Growth LT Variable
Account, Equity Income Variable Account, Multi-Strategy Variable Account,
Equity Index Variable Account, International Variable Account, and Emerging
Markets Variable Account are all subaccounts of the Pacific Select Exec

                             SUMMARY OF THE POLICY
   
  This summary is intended to provide a brief overview of the more significant
aspects of the Policy. Further detail is provided in this prospectus and in the
Policy. Unless the context indicates otherwise, the discussion in this summary
and the remainder of the prospectus relates to the portion of the Policy
involving the Separate Account. The Fixed Account is briefly described under
"The Fixed Account," on page 31 and in the Policy.     
 
PURPOSE OF THE POLICY
   
  The Policy offers you insurance protection on the life of the Insured through
the Maturity Date for so long as your Policy is in force. Like traditional
fixed life insurance, the Policy provides for a death benefit equal to its Face
Amount, accumulation of cash value, and surrender and loan privileges. Unlike
traditional fixed life insurance, the Policy offers a choice of investment
alternatives and an opportunity for your Policy's Accumulated Value and, if
elected by you and under certain circumstances, its death benefit to grow based
on investment results. The Policy is a flexible premium policy, so that, unlike
many other insurance policies and subject to certain limitations, you may
choose the amount and frequency of premium payments.     
 
POLICY VALUES
   
  You may allocate net premium payments among the various Variable Accounts
that are available to you and that invest in corresponding Portfolios of the
Pacific Select Fund. A Policy Owner may also allocate net premium payments to
the Fixed Account.     
   
  Depending on the investment experience of the selected Variable Accounts, the
Accumulated Value may increase or decrease on any day. The death benefit may or
may not increase or decrease depending upon several factors, including the
death benefit option you select, although the death benefit will never decrease
below the Face Amount provided your Policy is in force. There is no guarantee
that your Policy's Accumulated Value and death benefit will increase. You bear
the investment risk on that portion of your net premiums and Accumulated Value
allocated to the Separate Account.     
   
  Your Policy will remain in force until the earliest of the Maturity Date, the
death of the Insured, or a full surrender of your Policy, unless, before any of
these events, Accumulated Value less Policy Debt is insufficient to pay the
current monthly deduction on a Monthly Payment Date and a Grace Period expires
without sufficient additional premium payment or loan repayment by you.     
 
THE DEATH BENEFIT
   
  You may elect one of two Options to calculate the amount of death benefit
payable under the Policy. Under Option A, the death benefit will be equal to
the Face Amount of the Policy or, if greater, Accumulated Value multiplied by a
death benefit percentage. Under Option B, the death benefit will be equal to
the Face Amount of the Policy plus the Accumulated Value (determined as of the
date of the Insured's death) or, if greater, Accumulated Value multiplied by a
death benefit percentage. Owners seeking to have favorable investment
performance reflected in increasing Accumulated Value should choose Option A;
Owners seeking to have favorable investment performance reflected in increasing
insurance coverage should choose Option B. You may change the death benefit
option subject to certain conditions. See "Death Benefit" and "Changes in Death
Benefit Option," pages 15 and 16, respectively.     
 
PREMIUM FEATURES
   
  We require an Owner to pay an initial premium equal to at least 25% of an
annual premium that will be estimated by us. Thereafter, subject to certain
limitations, you may choose the amount and frequency of premium payments. The
Policy, therefore, provides you with the flexibility to vary premium payments
to reflect varying financial conditions.     
 
                                       5
<PAGE>
 
   
  When applying for a Policy, you will determine a Planned Periodic Premium
that provides for the payment of level premiums over a specified period of
time. You will receive a premium reminder notice or listbill for multiple
policies on an annual, semi-annual, or quarterly basis, or if a listbill, a
monthly basis, at your option; however, you are not required to pay Planned
Periodic Premiums. Premiums may be paid monthly under the Uni-check electronic
funds transfer plan where you authorize us to withdraw premiums from your
checking account each month. The minimum initial premium required must be paid
before the Uni-check plan will be accepted by us.     
   
  The amount, frequency, and period of time over which you pay premiums may
affect whether or not the Policy will be classified as a modified endowment
contract, which is a type of life insurance contract subject to different tax
treatment for certain pre-death distributions. For more information on the tax
treatment of life insurance contracts, including those classified as modified
endowment contracts, see "Federal Income Tax Considerations," page 26.     
   
  Payment of the Planned Periodic Premiums will not guarantee that a Policy
will remain in force. Instead, the duration of the Policy depends upon the
Policy's Accumulated Value. Even if Planned Periodic Premiums are paid, the
Policy will lapse any time Accumulated Value less Policy Debt is insufficient
to pay the current monthly deduction and a Grace Period expires without
sufficient payment. Any premium payment must be for at least $50.00. We also
may reject or limit any premium payment that would result in an immediate
increase in the net amount at risk under the Policy, although such a premium
may be accepted with satisfactory evidence of insurability.     
   
INVESTMENT ALLOCATION OPTIONS     
   
  The Variable Accounts invest in portfolios of a mutual fund which offers you
the opportunity to direct us to invest in diversified portfolios of stocks,
bonds, money market instruments, or a combination of these securities, or in
securities of foreign issuers. The Variable Accounts available to you invest
exclusively in shares of corresponding Portfolios of the Pacific Select Fund
(the "Fund"), which are: the Money Market Portfolio, the High Yield Bond
Portfolio, the Managed Bond Portfolio, the Government Securities Portfolio, the
Growth Portfolio, the Aggressive Equity Portfolio, the Growth LT Portfolio, the
Equity Income Portfolio, the Multi-Strategy Portfolio, the Equity Index
Portfolio, the International Portfolio, and the Emerging Markets Portfolio. See
"The Pacific Select Fund," page 10.     
          
  You may choose to allocate net premium payments among the twelve Variable
Accounts and the Fixed Account.     
 
TRANSFER OF ACCUMULATED VALUE
   
  You may transfer Accumulated Value among the Variable Accounts, and, subject
to certain other limitations, between the Variable Accounts and the Fixed
Account. Transfers may be made by telephone if an Authorization For Telephone
Requests has been properly completed, signed and filed at our Home Office. See
"Transfer of Accumulated Value," page 15.     
 
POLICY LOANS
   
  You may borrow from us an amount up to the greater of (1) 90% of your
Policy's Accumulated Value allocated to the Variable Accounts and 100% of
Accumulated Value allocated to the Fixed Account, less any surrender charges
that would have been imposed if your Policy were surrendered on the date the
loan is taken, or (2) 100% of the product of (a X b/c - d) where (a) equals
your Policy's Accumulated Value less any surrender charge that would be imposed
if your Policy were surrendered on the date the loan is taken and less 12 times
the current monthly deduction; (b) equals 1 plus the annual loan interest rate
credited; (c) equals 1 plus the annual loan interest rate currently charged;
and (d) equals any existing Policy Debt. The minimum loan is $500. Your Policy
will be the only security required for a loan. See "Policy Loans," page 19.
    
                                       6
<PAGE>
 
   
  The amount of any Policy Debt is subtracted from the death benefit or from
your Cash Surrender Value upon surrender. See "Policy Loans," page 19. Your
Policy will lapse when Accumulated Value less Policy Debt is insufficient to
cover the current monthly deduction on a Monthly Payment Date, and a Grace
Period expires without a sufficient premium or repayment of Policy Debt.     
 
FREE-LOOK RIGHT
   
  You may obtain a full refund of the premium paid if your Policy is returned
within 10 days after you receive it (30 days if you are a resident of
California and are age 60 or older), within 10 days after we mail or deliver
the notice of the right of withdrawal, or 45 days after the application for the
Policy is completed, whichever is later. During the Free-Look Period, net
premiums will be allocated to the Money Market Variable Account, which invests
in the Money Market Portfolio of the Fund. See "Allocation of Net Premiums,"
page 13.     
 
SURRENDER RIGHT
   
  You can surrender the Policy during the life of the Insured and receive its
Net Cash Surrender Value, which is equal to the Accumulated Value less the
surrender charge and less any outstanding Policy Debt.     
 
PREFERRED AND PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL BENEFITS
   
  Two partial surrender benefits are available under the Policy. The first, the
Preferred Withdrawal Benefit, permits one withdrawal of Net Cash Surrender
Value per year. The portion of a Preferred Withdrawal of up to 10% of the sum
of your total premium payments will not reduce the Face Amount under your
Policy. Any excess withdrawal amount will affect the Face Amount under a Policy
in the same manner as a Partial Withdrawal. This benefit is available on your
first Policy Anniversary until the 15th Policy Anniversary. The second partial
surrender benefit, the Partial Withdrawal Benefit, is available on and after
the 15th Policy Anniversary. Under this Benefit, you may make "Partial
Withdrawals" of Net Cash Surrender Value. A Partial Withdrawal may decrease the
Face Amount on a Policy on which the Owner has elected death benefit Option A,
and will decrease the death benefit if the death benefit is greater than the
Face Amount under either Option A or B. See "Preferred and Partial Withdrawal
Benefits," page 20.     
 
  Among other restrictions, both Preferred and Partial Withdrawals must be for
a least $500, and the Policy's Net Cash Surrender Value after the withdrawal
must be at least $500. No surrender charge will be assessed upon a Preferred or
Partial Withdrawal.
 
CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
 
 Premium Load
   
  A premium load is deducted from each premium payment under your Policy prior
to allocation of the net premium to your Accumulated Value. The premium load
consists of the following items:     
 
  --A sales load equal to 4% of each premium paid during the first ten Policy
    Years and 2% of each premium paid thereafter. (For information on the
    sales surrender charge, see page 25.)
     
  --A state and local premium tax charge equal to 2.35% of each premium paid.
       
 Deductions from Accumulated Value
 
  A charge called the monthly deduction is deducted from a Policy's Accumulated
Value on each Monthly Payment Date. The monthly deduction consists of the
following items:
     
  --Cost of Insurance: This monthly charge compensates us for providing life
    insurance coverage for the Insured. The amount of the charge is equal to a
    current cost of insurance rate multiplied by the net amount at risk under
    a Policy at the beginning of the Policy Month.     
 
                                       7
<PAGE>
 
 
  --Administrative Charge. A monthly administrative charge is deducted equal
    to $25 in each of the first 12 Policy Months and, after the first Policy
    Year, is equal to $7.50 per month for Face Amounts of less than $100,000,
    and $5.00 per month for Face Amounts of $100,000 or more. This charge is
    guaranteed not to exceed $25 in each of the first 12 Policy Months and
    $10.00 per month thereafter.
     
  --Mortality and Expense Risk Charge: A monthly charge is deducted for
    mortality and expense risks we assume. During the first ten Policy Years,
    this charge is equal to .000625 multiplied by a Policy's Accumulated Value
    less any amount in the Loan Account, which is equivalent to an annual rate
    of .75% of Accumulated Value less any amount in the Loan Account. After
    the tenth Policy Year, the charge is equal to .000208333 multiplied by a
    Policy's Accumulated Value less any amount in the Loan Account, which is
    equivalent to an annual rate of .25% of Accumulated Value less any amount
    in the Loan Account.     
 
  --Optional Insurance Benefits Charges: The monthly deduction will include
    charges for any optional insurance benefits added to the Policy by Rider.
   
  A death benefit change charge, if applicable, will also be deducted from your
Accumulated Value. If you request and we accept an increase in Face Amount or a
change in death benefit option from Option A to Option B, a charge of $100 will
be deducted from Accumulated Value on the effective date of the increase or
option change to cover processing costs.     
 
 Surrender Charge
 
  Pacific Mutual will assess a surrender charge against Accumulated Value upon
surrender of a Policy until the tenth Policy Anniversary. The surrender charge
consists of two charges: an underwriting surrender charge and a sales surrender
charge.
 
  --Underwriting Surrender Charge: The underwriting surrender charge is equal
    to a specified amount that varies with the Age of the Insured for each
    $1,000 of a Policy's initial Face Amount in accordance with a schedule
    shown on page 25. The amount of the charge remains level for five Policy
    Years. After the fifth Policy Year, the charge decreases by 1.666% per
    month until it reaches zero at the end of the 120th Policy Month.
     
  --Sales Surrender Charge: The sales surrender charge is equal to 26% of the
    lesser of the premiums paid under the Policy or a maximum amount that is
    called the Sales Surrender Target. The Sales Surrender Target is an
    estimation of an annual premium that you would pay based upon the Age of
    the Insured and the Face Amount on the Policy Date. After the fifth Policy
    Year, the charge decreases from its maximum by 1.666% per month until it
    reaches zero at the end of the 120th Policy Month.     
   
  The operating expenses of the Separate Account are paid by us. Investment
advisory fees and operating expenses of the Fund are paid by the Fund. For a
description of these charges, see "Charges and Deductions," page 23.     
 
TAX TREATMENT OF INCREASES IN ACCUMULATED VALUE
   
  The Accumulated Value under the Policy is currently subject to the same
federal income tax treatment as the cash value under fixed life insurance.
Therefore, generally you will not be deemed to be in constructive receipt of
the Accumulated Value unless and until you are deemed to be in receipt of a
distribution from your Policy. For information on the tax treatment of the
Policy and on the tax treatment of a surrender, a Preferred or Partial
Withdrawal, or a Policy loan, see "Federal Income Tax Considerations," page 26.
    
TAX TREATMENT OF DEATH BENEFIT
 
  The death benefit under the Policy is currently subject to federal income tax
treatment consistent with that of fixed life insurance. Therefore, generally
the death benefit will be fully excludable from the gross income of the
Beneficiary under the Internal Revenue Code. See "Federal Income Tax
Considerations," page 26.
 
                                       8
<PAGE>
 
 
THE FIXED ACCOUNT
   
  You may allocate all or a portion of net premium payments and transfer
Accumulated Value to the Fixed Account. Amounts allocated to the Fixed Account
are held in our General Account. We guarantee that the Accumulated Value
allocated to the Fixed Account will be credited interest monthly at a rate
equivalent to an effective annual rate of 4%. In addition, we may at our sole
discretion pay interest in excess of the guaranteed amount. See "The Fixed
Account," page 31.     
 
CONTACTING PACIFIC MUTUAL
   
  All written requests, notices, and forms required by the Policies, and any
questions or inquiries should be directed to Pacific Mutual, Policy Benefits
and Services Department at 700 Newport Center Drive, P.O. Box 7500, Newport
Beach, California 92658-7500.     
   
  The effective date of certain notices or of instructions is determined by the
date and time on which Pacific Mutual "receives" the notice or instructions.
Unless otherwise stated, we "receive" this information only when it arrives
"properly completed" at our Home Office. Premium payments after your initial
premium payment, transfer requests, and withdrawal requests we receive before
4:00 p.m. Eastern time (or the close of the New York Stock Exchange, if
earlier) will normally be effective as of the end of the Valuation Day that we
receive them "properly completed," unless the transaction or event is scheduled
to occur on another day. Transactions are effected as of the end of the
Valuation Date on which they are effective. "Properly completed" may require,
among other things, a signature guarantee or other verification of
authenticity. We do not generally require a signature guarantee unless it
appears that your signature may have changed over time or due to other
circumstances. Requests regarding death benefits must be accompanied by both
proof of death and instructions regarding payment satisfactory to us. You
should call your registered representative or Pacific Mutual if you have
questions regarding the required form of a request.

     INFORMATION ABOUT PACIFIC MUTUAL, THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT, AND THE FUND
 
PACIFIC MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
   
  Pacific Mutual is a mutual life insurance company organized under the laws
of the State of California. We were authorized to conduct business as a life
insurance company on January 2, 1868, as Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company
of California, and were reincorporated under our present name on July 22,
1936.     
   
  We offer a complete line of life insurance policies and annuity contracts,
as well as financial and retirement services. We are admitted to do business
in the District of Columbia, and in all states except New York. As of the end
of 1995, we had over $44.2 billion of life insurance in force and total assets
of $17.6 billion. Together with our subsidiaries and affiliated enterprises,
we had total assets and funds under management of over $116.6 billion. We have
been ranked according to assets as the 24th largest insurance carrier in the
nation for 1994.     
   
  The Principal Underwriter for the Policies is Pacific Mutual Distributors,
Inc. ("PMD") (formerly known as Pacific Equities Network). PMD is registered
as a broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pacific Mutual.     
 
PACIFIC SELECT EXEC SEPARATE ACCOUNT
   
  The Pacific Select Exec Separate Account ("Separate Account") is one of our
separate investment accounts used only to support the variable death benefits
and policy values of variable life insurance policies. The assets in the
Separate Account are kept separate from the assets of our General Account and
our other separate accounts.     
   
  We own the assets in the Separate Account and are required to maintain
sufficient assets in the Separate Account to meet anticipated obligations of
the Policies funded by the Account. The Separate Account is divided into
subaccounts called Variable Accounts. The income, gains, or losses, realized
or unrealized, of each Variable Account are credited to or charged against the
assets held in the Variable Account without regard to our other income, gains,
or losses. Assets in the Separate Account attributable to the reserves and
other liabilities under the Policies are not chargeable with liabilities
arising from any other business that we conduct. However, we may transfer to
our General Account any assets which exceed anticipated obligations of the
Separate Account. All obligations arising under the Policy are general
corporate obligations of Pacific Mutual. We may accumulate in the Separate
Account proceeds from various Policy charges and investment results applicable
to those assets.     
   
  The Separate Account was established on May 12, 1988 under California law
under the authority of our Board of Directors. The Separate Account is
registered as a unit investment trust with the SEC. Such registration does not
involve any supervision by the SEC of the administration or investment
practices or policies of the Account.     
   
  Each Variable Account invests exclusively in shares of a designated
Portfolio of the Fund. We may in the future establish additional Variable
Accounts within the Separate Account, which may invest in other Portfolios of
the Fund or in other securities.     
 
THE PACIFIC SELECT FUND
   
  The Fund is a diversified, open-end management investment company of the
series type. The Fund is registered with the SEC under the Investment Company
Act of 1940. The Fund currently offers twelve separate Portfolios to the
Separate Account. Each Portfolio pursues different investment objectives and
policies. We purchase shares of each Portfolio for the corresponding Variable
Account at net asset value, i.e., without sales load. All dividends and
capital gains distributions received from a Portfolio are automatically
reinvested in such Portfolio at net asset value, unless we, on behalf of the
Separate Account, elect otherwise. Fund shares will be redeemed by us at their
net asset value to the extent necessary to make payments under the Policies.

THE INVESTMENT ADVISER     
   
  Pacific Mutual, located at 700 Newport Center Drive, Newport Beach,
California 92660, serves as Investment Adviser to each Portfolio of the Fund.
We are registered with the SEC as an Investment Adviser. For ten of the
Portfolios, the Investment Adviser and the Fund have engaged other firms to
serve as Portfolio Managers which are shown in the chart above.     
 
                                      11
<PAGE>
 
                                  THE POLICY
 
  The variable life insurance benefits provided by the Policies are funded
through the Policy Owner's Accumulated Value in the Separate Account and the
Fixed Account. The information included below describes the benefits,
features, charges, and other major provisions of the Policies.
 
APPLICATION FOR A POLICY
   
  The Policy is designed to meet the needs of individuals and for corporations
who wish to provide coverage and benefits for key employees. Anyone wishing to
purchase the Policy may submit an application to us. A Policy can be issued on
the life of an Insured for Ages up to and including Age 80 with evidence of
insurability satisfactory to us. The Insured's Age is calculated as of the
Insured's birthday nearest the Policy Date. Acceptance is subject to our
underwriting rules, and we reserve the right to request additional information
and to reject an application.     
   
  Each Policy is issued with a Policy Date, which is the date used to
determine the Monthly Payment Date, Policy Months, Policy Years, and Policy
Monthly, Quarterly, Semi-annual and Annual Anniversaries. If the application
is accompanied by all or a portion of the initial premium and is accepted by
us, the Policy Date is usually the date the application and premium payment
were received at our Home Office, although the Policy Date will never be the
29th, 30th, or 31st of any month. If an application is not accompanied by all
or a portion of the initial premium payment, the Policy Date is usually the
date the application is accepted by us. We first become obligated under the
Policy on the date the total initial premium is received or on the date the
application is accepted, whichever is later. Any monthly deductions due will
be taken on the Monthly Payment Date on or next following the date Pacific
Mutual becomes obligated. The initial premium must be received within 20 days
after your Policy is issued, although we may waive the 20 day requirement at
our discretion. If the initial premium is not received or the application is
rejected by us, your Policy will be cancelled and any partial premium received
will be refunded.     
   
  Subject to our approval, your Policy may be backdated, but the Policy Date
may not be more than six months prior to the date of the application.
Backdating can be advantageous if the Insured's lower issue Age results in
lower cost of insurance rates. If your Policy is backdated, the minimum
initial premium required will include sufficient premium to cover the
backdating period. Monthly deductions will be made for the period the Policy
Date is backdated.     
   
  Insureds are assigned to underwriting (risk) classes which are used in
calculating the cost of insurance charges. In assigning Insureds to
underwriting classes, we will normally use the medical or paramedical
underwriting method, which may require a medical examination of a proposed
Insured, although other forms of underwriting may be used when deemed
appropriate by us.     
 
PREMIUMS
   
  The Policy is a flexible-premium policy, and it provides considerable
flexibility, subject to the limitations described below, to pay premiums at
your discretion. We usually require you to pay a minimum initial premium equal
to at least 25% of the sum of your Policy's monthly deductions plus premium
load for the first year, which will be based upon your Policy's Face Amount
and the Age, smoking status, gender (unless unisex cost of insurance rates
apply, see "Cost of Insurance," page 23), and underwriting class of the
Insured. Thereafter, subject to the limitations described below, you may
choose the amount and frequency of premium payments. The Policy, therefore,
provides you with the flexibility to vary premium payments to reflect varying
financial conditions.     
   
  When applying for a Policy, an Owner will determine a Planned Periodic
Premium that provides for the payment of level premiums over a specified
period of time. Each Owner will receive a premium reminder notice, or a
listbill for multiple policies, on an annual, semiannual, or quarterly basis,
or, if a listbill, a monthly basis, at the option of the Owner; however, the
Owner is not required to pay Planned Periodic Premiums. Premiums may be paid
monthly under the Uni-check electronic funds transfer plan where you authorize
us to withdraw     
 
                                      12
<PAGE>
 
   
premiums from your checking account each month. The minimum initial premium
required must be paid before the Uni-check plan will be accepted by Pacific
Mutual. You may elect the day each month on which premiums are paid under the
Uni-check plan, provided the day elected is between the 4th and the 28th day
of the month. If you do not elect a payment day, the day on which premiums are
paid will be the monthly Anniversary.     
   
  The amount, frequency and period of time over which you pay premiums may
affect whether the Policy will be classified as a modified endowment contract,
which is a type of life insurance contract subject to different tax treatment
for certain pre-death distributions than conventional life insurance
contracts. Accordingly, variations from the Planned Periodic Premiums on a
Policy that is not otherwise a modified endowment contract may result in the
Policy becoming a modified endowment contract for tax purposes.     
   
  In order for your Policy to avoid being treated as a modified endowment
contract, the sum of the premiums paid less a portion of any Partial
Withdrawals may not exceed the "seven pay premium" limit as defined in the
Internal Revenue Code. (See "Federal Income Tax Considerations"). If we
receive any premium payment that we believe, if applied to your Policy in that
Policy year, would cause your Policy to become a modified endowment contract,
the portion of the payment that we believe would cause your Policy to become a
modified endowment contract will not be applied to your Policy, but will be
returned to you, unless you had previously notified us that payments that
cause your Policy to become a modified endowment contract may be accepted by
us and applied to your Policy. However, for premium payments received by us at
our Home Office within 20 days before the upcoming Annual Anniversary of your
Policy, we may apply the portion of the premium payment that we believe would
cause your Policy to become a modified endowment contract to your Policy on
the upcoming Annual Anniversary.     
   
  Payment of the Planned Periodic Premium will not guarantee that your Policy
will remain in force. Instead, the duration of your Policy depends upon your
Policy's Accumulated Value. Even if Planned Periodic Premiums are paid, your
Policy will lapse any time Accumulated Value less Policy Debt is insufficient
to pay the current monthly deduction and a Grace Period expires without
sufficient payment. See "Lapse," page 22.     
   
  Any premium payment must be for at least $50.00. We also may reject or limit
any premium payment that would result in an immediate increase in the net
amount at risk under the Policy, although such a premium may be accepted with
satisfactory evidence of insurability. See "Cost of Insurance," page 23. A
premium payment would result in an immediate increase in the net amount at
risk if the death benefit under your Policy is, or upon acceptance of the
premium would be, equal to your Accumulated Value multiplied by a death
benefit percentage. See "Death Benefit," page 15. If satisfactory evidence of
insurability is not received, the payment, or portion thereof may be returned.
All or a portion of a premium payment will be rejected and returned to you if
it would exceed the maximum premium limitations prescribed by federal tax law.
       
  Certain charges will be deducted from each premium payment. See "Charges and
Deductions," page 23. The remainder of the premium, known as the net premium,
will be allocated as described below under "Allocation of Net Premiums."
Additional payments will first be treated as repayments of Policy Debt unless
you request otherwise. Any portion of a payment that exceeds the amount of
Policy Debt will be applied as an additional premium payment.     
 
ALLOCATION OF NET PREMIUMS
   
  In the application for your Policy, you select the Investment Options to
which net premium payments will be allocated. During the Free-Look Period, net
premiums will be allocated to the Money Market Variable Account, which invests
in the Money Market Portfolio of the Fund (except for amounts allocated to the
Loan Account to secure a Policy loan). Your Accumulated Value will be
automatically allocated according to your instructions contained in the
application the later of 15 days after the Policy is issued or 45 days after
the application is completed, or, if longer, upon receipt of the minimum
initial premium (the "Free-Look Period"). Net premiums received after the
Free-Look Period will be allocated upon receipt among the Investment Options
according to your most recent instructions. Available allocation alternatives
include the twelve Variable Accounts and the Fixed Account.     
   
  You may change the allocation of net premiums by submitting a proper written
request to our Home Office. Changes in net premium allocation instructions may
be made by telephone if a properly completed Authorization     
 
                                      13
<PAGE>
 
   
for Telephone Requests has been filed at our Home Office. We reserve the right
to discontinue telephone net premium allocation instructions.     
   
PORTFOLIO REBALANCING     
   
  You may direct us to automatically re-set the percentage of your Accumulated
Value allocated to each Variable Account at a predetermined level. This
process is called portfolio rebalancing. (The Fixed Account is not available
for portfolio rebalancing.) Over time, the variations in each Variable
Account's investment results will shift the percentage allocations of your
Accumulated Value. The portfolio rebalancing feature will automatically
transfer your Accumulated Value among the Variable Accounts back to the preset
percentages. Rebalancing can be made quarterly, semi-annually or annually,
measured from your Policy Date ("frequency period"). Rebalancing may result in
transferring amounts from a Variable Account with relatively higher investment
performance to a Variable Account with relatively lower investment
performance.     
   
  You may initiate portfolio rebalancing by sending our Home Office a signed,
written request in good form or a properly completed Automatic Portfolio
Rebalancing form. You must specify the frequency for rebalancing and a
beginning date. The first rebalancing will usually occur on your Monthly
Payment Date that starts the frequency period you elected and that occurs on
or follows the beginning date you elected. If you stop portfolio rebalancing,
you must wait 30 days to begin again. Portfolio rebalancing cannot be used
with the Dollar Cost Averaging Option.     
   
  We may modify, terminate or suspend the portfolio rebalancing feature at any
time.     
 
DOLLAR COST AVERAGING OPTION
   
  We currently offer an option under which you may dollar cost average your
allocations in the Variable Accounts under your Policy by authorizing us to
make periodic allocations of Accumulated Value from any one Variable Account
to one or more of the other Variable Accounts. Dollar cost averaging is a
systematic method of investing in which securities are purchased at regular
intervals in fixed dollar amounts so that the cost of the securities gets
averaged over time and possibly over various market values. The option will
result in the allocation of Accumulated Value to one or more Variable
Accounts, and these amounts will be credited at the Accumulation Unit values
as of the end of the Valuation Dates on which the transfers are processed.
Since the value of Accumulation Units will vary, the amounts allocated to a
Variable Account will result in the crediting of a greater number of units
when the Accumulation Unit value is low and a lesser number of units when the
Accumulation Unit value is high. Similarly, the amounts transferred from a
Variable Account will result in a debiting of a greater number of units when
the Accumulation Unit value is low and a lesser number of units when the
Accumulation Unit value is high. Dollar cost averaging does not guarantee
profits, nor does it assure that you will not have losses.     
   
  A Dollar Cost Averaging Request form is available upon request. On the form,
you must designate the specific dollar amounts or percentage to be
transferred, the Variable Account or Accounts to which the transfer will be
made, the desired frequency of the transfer, which may be on a monthly,
quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis and the length of time during which
the transfers shall continue or the total amount to be transferred over time.
       
  To elect the Dollar Cost Averaging Option, your Accumulated Value in the
Variable Account from which the Dollar Cost averaging transfers will be made
must be at least $5,000; the Dollar Cost Averaging Request form will not be
considered complete until your Accumulated Value in the Variable Account from
which the transfers will be made is at least $5,000. After we have received a
Dollar Cost Averaging Request in proper form at our Home Office, we will
transfer Accumulated Value in amounts designated by you from the Variable
Account from which transfers are to be made to the Variable Account or
Accounts chosen by you. The minimum amount that may be transferred to any one
Variable Account is $50. After the Free-Look Period, the first transfer will
be effected on the Policy's Monthly, Quarterly, Semi-Annual, or Annual
Anniversary, whichever corresponds to the period selected by you, coincident
with or next following receipt at our Home Office of a Dollar Cost Averaging
Request in proper form, and subsequent transfers will be effected on the
following Monthly, Quarterly, Semi-Annual, or Annual Anniversary for so long
as you designate, until the total amount     
 
                                      14
<PAGE>
 
   
elected has been transferred, until Accumulated Value in the Variable Account
from which transfers are made has been depleted, or until your Policy enters
the Grace Period. Amounts periodically transferred under this option will not
be subject to any transfer charges that may be imposed by us in the future,
except as may be required by applicable law.     
   
  You may instruct us at any time to terminate the option by written request
to our Home Office. In that event, the Accumulated Value in the Variable
Account from which transfers were being made that has not been transferred
will remain in that Variable Account, subject to monthly deductions, unless
you instruct otherwise or until your Policy enters the Grace Period. If you
wish to continue transferring on a dollar cost averaging basis after the
expiration of the applicable period, the total amount elected has been
transferred, or the Variable Account has been depleted, or after the Dollar
Cost Averaging Option has been cancelled, a new Dollar Cost Averaging Request
must be completed and sent to our Home Office. The Variable Account from which
transfers are to be made must meet the $5,000 minimum amount of the
Accumulated Value. We may discontinue, modify, or suspend the Dollar Cost
Averaging Option at any time.     
 
TRANSFER OF ACCUMULATED VALUE
   
  You may transfer Accumulated Value among the Variable Accounts after the
Free-Look Period upon proper written request to our Home Office. Transfers
(other than transfers in connection with the Dollar Cost Averaging Option) may
be made by telephone if a properly completed Authorization For Telephone
Requests has been filed at our Home Office. Currently, there are no
limitations on the number of transfers between Variable Accounts, no minimum
amount required for a transfer, nor any minimum amount required to be
remaining in a given Variable Account after a transfer (except as required
under the Dollar Cost Averaging Option). No transfer may be made if a Policy
is in the Grace Period and a payment required to avoid lapse is not paid. See
"Lapse," page 22. No charges are currently imposed upon such transfers. We
reserve the right, however, at a future date to limit the size of transfers
and remaining balances, to assess transfer charges, to limit the number and
frequency of transfers, and to suspend and discontinue telephone transfers.
       
  Accumulated Value may also be transferred after the Free-Look Period from
the Variable Accounts to the Fixed Account; however, such a transfer will only
be permitted in the Policy Month preceding a Policy Anniversary, except that
Policy Owners residing in Maryland, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania may make
such a transfer at any time during the first 18 Policy Months. Transfers from
the Fixed Account to the Variable Accounts are restricted as described in "The
Fixed Account," page 31.     
 
DEATH BENEFIT
   
  When your Policy is issued, we will determine the initial amount of
insurance based on the instructions provided in your application. That amount
will be shown on the specifications page of your Policy and is called the
"Face Amount." The minimum Face Amount at issuance of a Policy is $50,000. We
may reduce the minimum Face Amount required at issuance under certain
circumstances, such as for group or sponsored arrangements.     
 
  For so long as the Policy remains in force, Pacific Mutual will, upon proof
of the death of an Insured, pay death benefit proceeds to a named Beneficiary.
Death benefit proceeds will consist of the death benefit under the Policy,
plus any insurance proceeds provided by rider, reduced by any outstanding
Policy Debt (and, if in the Grace Period, any overdue charges).
   
  You may select one of two death benefit options: Option A or Option B.
Generally, an applicant designates the death benefit option in the
application. If no option is designated, Option A will be assumed by us to
have been selected. Subject to certain restrictions, you can change the death
benefit option selected. So long as the Policy remains in force, the death
benefit under either option will never be less than the Face Amount of the
Policy.     
 
  Option A. Under Option A, the death benefit will be equal to the Face Amount
of the Policy or, if greater, Accumulated Value (determined as of the end of
the Valuation Period during which the Insured dies) multiplied
 
                                      15
<PAGE>
 
by a death benefit percentage. The death benefit percentages vary according to
the Age of the Insured and will be at least equal to the cash value corridor
in Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code, which addresses the definition
of a life insurance policy for tax purposes. The death benefit percentage is
250% for an Insured at Age 40 or under, and it declines for older Insureds. A
table showing the death benefit percentages is in the Appendix to this
Prospectus and in the Policy. Policy Owners who are seeking to have favorable
investment performance reflected in increasing Accumulated Value, and not in
increasing insurance coverage, should choose Option A.
 
  Option B. Under Option B, the death benefit will be equal to the Face Amount
of the Policy plus the Accumulated Value (determined as of the end of the
Valuation Period during which the Insured dies) or, if greater, Accumulated
Value multiplied by a death benefit percentage. The specified percentage is
the same as that used in connection with Option A and as stated in the
Appendix. The death benefit under Option B will always vary as Accumulated
Value varies. Therefore, Policy Owners who seek to have favorable investment
performance reflected in increased insurance coverage should choose Option B.
 
  Examples of Options A and B. The following examples demonstrate the
determination of death benefits under Options A and B. The examples show three
Policies--Policies I, II, and III--with the same Face Amount, but Accumulated
Values that vary as shown, and which assume an Insured is Age 40 at the time
of death and that there is no outstanding Policy Debt.

</TABLE>
 
  Under Option A, the death benefit for Policy I is equal to $100,000 since
the death benefit is the greater of the Face Amount ($100,000) or the
Accumulated Value at the date of death multiplied by the death benefit
percentage ($25,000 x 250% = $62,500). In contrast, for both Policies II and
III under Option A, the Accumulated Value multiplied by the death benefit
percentage ($50,000 x 250% = $125,000 for Policy II; $75,000 x 250% = $187,500
for Policy III) is greater than the Face Amount ($100,000), so the death
benefit is equal to the higher value. Under Option B, the death benefit for
Policy I is equal to $125,000 since the death benefit is the greater of Face
Amount plus Accumulated Value ($100,000 + $25,000 = $125,000) or the
Accumulated Value multiplied by the death benefit percentage ($25,000 x 250% =
$62,500). Similarly, in Policy II, Face Amount plus Accumulated Value
($100,000 + $50,000 = $150,000) is greater than Accumulated Value multiplied
by the death benefit percentage ($50,000 x 250% = $125,000). In contrast, in
Policy III, the Accumulated Value multiplied by the death benefit percentage
($75,000 x 250% = $187,500) is greater than the Face Amount plus Accumulated
Value ($100,000 + $75,000 = $175,000), so the death benefit is equal to the
higher value.
   
  All calculations of death benefit will be made as of the end of the
Valuation Period during which the Insured dies. Death benefit proceeds may be
paid to your Beneficiary in a lump sum or under a payment plan offered under
the Policy. The Policy should be consulted for details.     
 
CHANGES IN DEATH BENEFIT OPTION
   
  You may request that the death benefit under your Policy be changed from
Option A to Option B, or from Option B to Option A. Changes in the death
benefit option may be made only once per Policy Year and should be made in
writing to our Home Office. A change from Option B to Option A may be made
without evidence of insurability; a change from Option A to Option B will
require evidence of insurability satisfactory to us. The effective date of any
such change shall be the next Monthly Payment Date after the change is
accepted.     
   
  A change in the death benefit from Option A to Option B will result in a
reduction in the Face Amount of your Policy by the amount of the Policy's
Accumulated Value, with the result that the death benefit payable under Option
B at the time of the change will equal that which would have been payable
under Option A     
 
                                      16
<PAGE>
 
   
immediately prior to the change. The change in option will affect the
determination of the death benefit from that point on since Accumulated Value
will then be added to the new Face Amount, and the death benefit will then
vary with Accumulated Value. This change will not be permitted if it would
result in a Face Amount of less than $50,000, although we reserve the right to
waive this minimum under certain circumstances, such as for group or sponsored
arrangements. A charge of $100 will be deducted from your Accumulated Value on
the effective date of the change from Option A to Option B to cover the costs
of processing the request. This fee will be deducted from the Investment
Options in the proportion that each bears to your Accumulated Value less Debt.
       
  A change in the death benefit from Option B to Option A will result in an
increase in the Face Amount of your Policy by the amount of your Policy's
Accumulated Value, with the result that the death benefit payable under Option
A at the time of the change will equal that which would have been payable
under Option B immediately prior to the change. However, the change in option
will affect the determination of the death benefit from that point on since
your Accumulated Value will no longer be added to the Face Amount in
determining the death benefit. From that point on, the death benefit will
equal the new Face Amount (or, if higher, the Accumulated Value times the
applicable specified percentage). No charge will be made on a change from
Option B to Option A.     
 
  A change in death benefit option may affect the monthly cost of insurance
charge since this charge varies with the net amount at risk, which generally
is the amount by which the death benefit exceeds Accumulated Value. See "Cost
of Insurance," page 23. Assuming that the Policy's death benefit would not be
equal to Accumulated Value times a death benefit percentage under either
Option A or B, changing from Option B to Option A will generally decrease the
net amount at risk, and therefore decrease the cost of insurance charges.
Changing from Option A to Option B will generally result in a net amount at
risk that remains level. Such a change, however, will result in an increase in
the cost of insurance charges over time, since the cost of insurance rates
increase with the Insured's Age.
 
CHANGES IN FACE AMOUNT
   
  You may request an increase or decrease in the Face Amount under your Policy
subject to our approval. A change in Face Amount may only be made once per
year, and a decrease in Face Amount may only be made after the fifth Policy
Year, or after the fifth Policy Year following the last increase in Face
Amount. Increasing the Face Amount could increase the death benefit under your
Policy, and decreasing the Face Amount could decrease the death benefit. The
amount of change in the death benefit will depend, among other things, upon
the death benefit option chosen by you and whether, and the degree to which,
the death benefit under your Policy exceeds the Face Amount prior to the
change. Changing the Face Amount could affect the subsequent level of the
death benefit while your Policy is in force and the subsequent level of Policy
values. An increase in Face Amount may increase the net amount at risk under
your Policy, which will increase your cost of insurance charge. Conversely, a
decrease in Face Amount may decrease the net amount at risk, which will
decrease your cost of insurance charge.     
   
  Any request for an increase or decrease in Face Amount must be made by
written application to our Home Office. It will become effective on the
Monthly Payment Date on or next following our acceptance of the request. If
you are not the Insured, we will also require the consent of the Insured
before accepting a request.     
 
                                      17
<PAGE>
 
   
  Increases. Additional evidence of insurability satisfactory to us will be
required for an increase in Face Amount. An increase will not be given for
increments of Face Amount less than that indicated in the table below. A
charge of $100 will be deducted from the Accumulated Value on the effective
date of the increase in Face Amount to cover the costs of processing the
request. This fee will be deducted from the Investment Options in the
proportion that each bears to your Accumulated Value less Debt.

  Decreases. Any decrease in Face Amount will first be applied to the most
recent increases, then the next most recent increases successively, and
finally to the original Face Amount. A decrease will not be permitted if the
Face Amount would fall below $50,000, although we reserve the right to waive
the minimum Face Amount under certain circumstances, such as for group or
sponsored arrangements. No charge will be deducted in connection with a
decrease. If a decrease in the Face Amount would result in total premiums paid
exceeding the premium limitations prescribed under tax law to qualify your
Policy as a life insurance contract, we will refund to you the amount of such
excess above the premium limitations.     
   
  We reserve the right to disallow a requested decrease, and will not permit a
requested decrease, among other reasons, (1) if compliance with the guideline
premium limitations under tax law resulting from the requested decrease would
result in immediate termination of your Policy, or (2) if, to effect the
requested decrease, payments to you would have to be made from Accumulated
Value for compliance with the guideline premium limitations, and the amount of
such payments would exceed the Net Cash Surrender Value under your Policy.
    
POLICY VALUES
   
  Accumulated Value. Your Accumulated Value is the sum of the amounts under
your Policy held in each Investment Option, as well as the amount set aside in
the Loan Account to secure any Policy Debt.     
   
  On each Valuation Date, the portion of your Accumulated Value allocated to
any particular Variable Account will be adjusted to reflect the investment
experience of that Variable Account. On each Monthly Payment Date, the portion
of the Accumulated Value allocated to a particular Variable Account also will
be adjusted to reflect the assessment of the monthly deduction. See
"Determination of Accumulated Value," page 19. No minimum amount of
Accumulated Value is guaranteed. You bear the risk for the investment
experience of Accumulated Value allocated to the Variable Accounts.     
   
  Cash Surrender Value. The Cash Surrender Value of your Policy equals your
Accumulated Value less the surrender charge. Thus, your Accumulated Value will
exceed your Policy's Cash Surrender Value by the amount of the surrender
charge. Once the surrender charge has expired, your Accumulated Value will
equal the Cash Surrender Value.     
   
  Net Cash Surrender Value. The Net Cash Surrender Value of your Policy equals
your Cash Surrender Value less any outstanding Policy Debt. You can surrender
your Policy at any time while the Insured is living and receive your Net Cash
Surrender Value. See "Surrender," page 20.     
 
                                      18
<PAGE>
 
DETERMINATION OF ACCUMULATED VALUE
   
  Although your death benefit under your Policy can never be less than the
Policy's Face Amount, the Accumulated Value will vary to a degree that depends
upon several factors, including investment performance of the Variable
Accounts to which Accumulated Value has been allocated, payment of premiums,
the amount of any outstanding Policy Debt, Preferred or Partial Withdrawals,
and the charges assessed in connection with the Policy. There is no guaranteed
minimum Accumulated Value and you bear the entire investment risk relating to
the investment performance of Accumulated Value allocated to the Variable
Accounts.     
   
  The amounts allocated to the Variable Accounts available to you will be
invested in shares of the corresponding Portfolio of the Fund. The investment
performance of each Variable Account will reflect increases or decreases in
the net asset value per share of the corresponding Portfolio and any dividends
or distributions declared by a Portfolio. Any dividends or distributions from
any Portfolio of the Fund will be automatically reinvested in shares of the
same Portfolio, unless we, on behalf of the Separate Account, elect otherwise.
       
  Assets in the Variable Accounts are divided into accumulation units, which
are a measure of value used for bookkeeping purposes. When you allocate net
premiums to a Variable Account, your Policy is credited with accumulation
units. In addition, other transactions including loans, a surrender, Preferred
and Partial Withdrawals, transfers, and assessment of charges against your
Policy affect the number of accumulation units credited to your Policy. The
number of units credited or debited in connection with any such transaction is
determined by dividing the dollar amount of such transaction by the unit value
of the affected Variable Account. The unit value of each Variable Account is
determined on each Valuation Date. The number of units credited will not
change because of subsequent changes in unit value.     
   
  The accumulation unit value of each Variable Account's unit initially was
$10. The unit value of a Variable Account on any Valuation Date is calculated
by adjusting the unit value from the previous Valuation Date for (1) the
investment performance of the Variable Account, which is based upon the
investment performance of the corresponding Portfolio of the Fund, (2) any
dividends or distributions paid by the corresponding Portfolio, and (3) the
charges, if any, that may be assessed by us for income taxes attributable to
the operation of the Variable Account.     
 
POLICY LOANS
   
  You may borrow money from us using your Policy as the only security for the
loan by submitting a proper written request to our Home Office. We may in our
discretion permit loans to be made by telephone if an Authorization For
Telephone Requests has been properly completed and signed and filed at our
Home Office. A loan may be taken any time your Policy is in force. The minimum
loan that can be taken at any time is $500. The maximum amount that can be
borrowed at any time is the greater of (1) 100% of the Accumulated Value in
the Fixed Account plus 90% of the Accumulated Value in the Variable Accounts,
and less any surrender charges that would have been imposed if the Policy were
surrendered on the date the loan is taken or (2) 100% of the product of
(a X b/c - d) where (a) equals the Policy's Accumulated Value less any
surrender charge that would be imposed if the Policy were surrendered on the
date the loan is taken and less 12 times the current monthly deduction; (b)
equals 1 plus the annual loan interest rate credited; (c) equals 1 plus the
annual loan interest rate currently charged; and (d) equals any existing
Policy Debt.     
   
  When you take a loan, an amount equal to the loan is transferred out of your
Accumulated Value in the Investment Options into the Loan Account to secure
the loan. Unless you request otherwise, loan amounts will be deducted from the
Investment Options in the proportion that each bears to the Accumulated Value
less Debt.     
   
  The Policy loan annual effective interest rate maximum is 4.75% per year for
the first 10 years and 4.25% thereafter. We will credit interest monthly on
amounts held in the Loan Account to secure the loan at an annual effective
rate of 4.0%.     
   
  You may repay all or part of the loan at any time while your Policy is in
force. Interest on a loan is accrued daily and is due for the prior year on
each Policy Anniversary. If interest is not paid when due, it will be added to
the amount of the loan principal and interest will begin accruing thereon from
that date. An amount equal to     
 
                                      19
<PAGE>
 
   
the loan interest charged will be transferred to the Loan Account from the
Investment Options on a proportional basis.     
   
  Unless you request otherwise, any loan repayment will be transferred into
the Investment Options in accordance with your most recent premium allocation
instructions. In addition, any interest earned on the loan balance held in the
Loan Account will be transferred to each of the Investment Options in
accordance with your most recent premium allocation instructions.     
   
  While the amount to secure the loan is held in the Loan Account, you forgo
the investment experience of the Variable Accounts and the current interest
rate of the Fixed Account on the loaned amount. Thus a loan, whether or not
repaid, will have a permanent effect on your Policy's values and may have an
effect on the amount and duration of the death benefit. If not repaid, your
Policy Debt will be deducted from the amount of death benefit paid upon the
death of the Insured, the Cash Surrender Value paid upon surrender or
maturity, or the refund of premium upon exercise of the Free-Look Right.     
   
  A loan may affect the length of time your Policy remains in force. Your
Policy will lapse when Accumulated Value minus Policy Debt is insufficient to
cover the monthly deduction against your Policy's Accumulated Value on any
Monthly Payment Date and the minimum payment required is not made during the
Grace Period. Moreover, your Policy may enter the Grace Period more quickly
when a loan is outstanding, because the loaned amount is not available to
cover the monthly deduction. Additional payments or repayment of a portion of
Policy Debt may be required to keep the Policy in force. See "Lapse," page 22.
       
  A loan will not be treated as a distribution from your Policy and will not
result in taxable income to you unless your Policy is a modified endowment
contract, in which case a loan will be treated as a distribution that may give
rise to taxable income.     
 
  For information on the tax treatment of loans, see "Federal Income Tax
Considerations," page 26.
 
BENEFITS AT MATURITY
   
  If the insured is living on your Policy Anniversary nearest the Insured's
Age 95, we will pay to you, as an endowment benefit, your Accumulated Value,
reduced by any Policy Debt. Payment ordinarily will be made within seven days
of your Policy Anniversary, although payments may be postponed in certain
circumstances. See "Payments," page 34.     
 
SURRENDER
   
  You may fully surrender your Policy at any time during the life of the
Insured. The amount received in the event of a full surrender is your Policy's
Net Cash Surrender Value, which is equal to your Accumulated Value less any
applicable surrender charge and less any outstanding Policy Debt.     
   
  You may surrender your Policy by sending a written request together with
your Policy to our Home Office. The proceeds will be determined as of the end
of the Valuation Period during which your request for a surrender is received.
You may elect to have the proceeds paid in cash or applied under a payment
plan offered under the Policy. See "Payment Plan," page 35. For information on
the tax effects of a surrender of a Policy, see "Federal Income Tax
Considerations," page 26.     
 
PREFERRED AND PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL BENEFITS
   
  We offer two partial surrender benefits by which you can obtain a portion of
your Net Cash Surrender Value: the Preferred Withdrawal Benefit and the
Partial Withdrawal Benefit. The Preferred Withdrawal Benefit is available
starting on your first Policy Anniversary and before your 15th Policy
Anniversary. Under this Benefit, you may make one "Preferred Withdrawal" of
the Net Cash Surrender Value per year. The portion of a Preferred Withdrawal
of up to 10% of the amount of your total premium payments received and
accepted prior to the withdrawal will not reduce the Face Amount under your
Policy. The excess of any Preferred Withdrawal over 10% of total premiums
received and accepted prior to the withdrawal will be treated in the same
manner as     
 
                                      20
<PAGE>
 
a "Partial Withdrawal" and therefore may cause a reduction in Face Amount if
the death benefit option is Option A, as described below.
   
  The Partial Withdrawal Benefit is available on and after your 15th Policy
Anniversary. Under this Benefit, you may make "Partial Withdrawals" of Net
Cash Surrender Value. The limit of one withdrawal per year does not apply to
Partial Withdrawals.     
   
  Both Preferred and Partial Withdrawals must be for at least $500, and your
Policy's Net Cash Surrender Value after the withdrawal must be at least $500.
If there is any Policy Debt, the maximum Partial Withdrawal is limited to the
excess, if any, of the Cash Surrender Value immediately prior to the
withdrawal over the result of the Policy Debt divided by 90%. In addition, the
amount of a Partial Withdrawal is further limited on Policies on which the
Owner has chosen death benefit Option A so that the withdrawal will not cause
the Face Amount to be less than $50,000, although Pacific Mutual reserves the
right to waive the minimum Face Amount under certain circumstances, such as
for group or sponsored arrangements. If the Policy Owner does not exercise the
Preferred Withdrawal Benefit during one of the first 15 Policy Years, the
amount that the Policy Owner could have withdrawn without affecting Face
Amount does not carry over in the following year.     
   
  You may make a Preferred or Partial Withdrawal by submitting a proper
written request to our Home Office. As of the effective date of any
withdrawal, your Accumulated Value, Cash Surrender Value, and Net Cash
Surrender Value will be reduced by the amount of the withdrawal. The amount of
the withdrawal will be allocated proportionately to your Value in the
Investment Options unless you request otherwise. If the Insured dies after the
request for a withdrawal is sent to us and prior to the withdrawal being
effected, the amount of the withdrawal will be deducted from the death benefit
proceeds, which will be determined without taking into account the withdrawal.
No surrender charge or withdrawal fee will be charged for a Preferred or
Partial Withdrawal.     
 
  When a Partial Withdrawal is made on a Policy on which the Owner has
selected death benefit Option A, the Face Amount under the Policy is decreased
by the lesser of (1) the amount of the Partial Withdrawal or (2) if the death
benefit prior to the withdrawal is greater than the Face Amount, the amount,
if any, by which the Face Amount exceeds the difference between the death
benefit and the amount of the Partial Withdrawal. A Partial Withdrawal will
not change the Face Amount of a Policy on which the Owner has selected death
benefit Option B. However, assuming that the death benefit is not equal to
Accumulated Value times a death benefit percentage, the Partial Withdrawal
will reduce the death benefit by the amount of the Partial Withdrawal. To the
extent the death benefit is based upon the Accumulated Value times the death
benefit percentage applicable to the Insured, a Partial Withdrawal may cause
the death benefit to decrease by an amount greater than the amount of the
Partial Withdrawal. See "Death Benefit," page 15.
 
  For information on the tax treatment of Preferred and Partial Withdrawals,
see "Federal Income Tax Considerations," page 26.
 
RIGHT TO EXAMINE A POLICY--FREE-LOOK RIGHT
   
  You have a Free-Look Right, under which your Policy may be returned within
10 days after you receive it (30 days if you are a resident of California and
are age 60 or older), within 10 days after we mail or deliver a notice of the
right of withdrawal, or within 45 days after you complete the application for
insurance, whichever is later. It can be mailed or delivered to us or our
agent. The returned Policy will be treated as if we never issued it and we
will promptly refund the full amount of the premium paid. If you have taken a
loan during the Free-Look Period, your Policy Debt will be deducted from the
amount refunded. During the Free-Look Period, net premiums will be allocated
to the Money Market Variable Account, which invests in the Money Market
Portfolio of the Fund (except for amounts allocated to the Loan Account to
secure a Policy loan). See "Allocation of Net Premiums," page 13.     
 
                                      21
<PAGE>
 
LAPSE
   
  Your Policy will lapse only when your Accumulated Value less Policy Debt is
insufficient to cover the current monthly deduction against your Policy's
Accumulated Value on any Monthly Payment Date, and a Grace Period expires
without you making a sufficient payment. If Accumulated Value less Policy Debt
is insufficient to cover the current monthly deduction on a Monthly Payment
Date, you must pay during the Grace Period a minimum of three times the full
monthly deduction due on the Monthly Payment Date when the insufficiency
occurred to avoid termination of your Policy. We will not accept any payment
if it would cause your total premium payments to exceed the maximum
permissible premium for your Policy's Face Amount under the Internal Revenue
Code. This is unlikely to occur unless you have outstanding Policy Debt, in
which case you could repay a sufficient portion of the Policy Debt to avoid
termination. In this instance, you may wish to repay a portion of Policy Debt
to avoid recurrence of the potential lapse. If premium payments have not
exceeded the maximum permissible premiums for your Policy's Face Amount, you
may wish to make larger or more frequent premium payments to avoid recurrence
of the potential lapse.     
   
  If your Accumulated Value less Policy Debt is insufficient to cover the
monthly deduction on a Monthly Payment Date, we will deduct the amount that is
available. We will notify you (and any assignee of record) of the payment
required to keep your Policy in force. You will then have a "Grace Period" of
61 days, measured from the date the notice is sent, to make the required
payment. Your Policy will remain in force through the Grace Period. Failure to
make the required payment within the Grace Period will result in termination
of coverage under your Policy, and your Policy will lapse with no value. If
the required payment is made during the Grace Period, any premium paid will be
allocated among the Investment Options in accordance with your current premium
allocation instructions. Any monthly deduction due will be charged to the
Investment Options on a proportionate basis. If the Insured dies during the
Grace Period, the death benefit proceeds will equal the amount of the death
benefit immediately prior to the commencement of the Grace Period, reduced by
any unpaid monthly deductions and any Policy Debt.     
 
REINSTATEMENT
   
  We will reinstate a lapsed Policy (but not a Policy which has been
surrendered for its Net Cash Surrender Value) at any time within five years
after the end of the Grace Period but before the Maturity Date provided we
receive the following: (1) your written application, (2) evidence of
insurability satisfactory to us, and (3) payment of all monthly deductions
that were due and unpaid during the Grace Period, and payment of a premium at
least sufficient to keep the Policy in force for three months after the date
of reinstatement.     
   
  When your Policy is reinstated, your Accumulated Value will be equal to your
Accumulated Value on the date of the lapse subject to the following: If your
Policy is reinstated after your first Monthly Payment Date following lapse,
your Accumulated Value will be reduced by the amount of Policy Debt on the
date of lapse and no Policy Debt will exist on the date of the reinstatement.
If your Policy is reinstated on your Monthly Payment Date next following
lapse, any Policy Debt on the date of lapse will also be reinstated. No
interest on amounts held in the Loan Account to secure Policy Debt will be
paid or credited between lapse and reinstatement. Reinstatement will be
effective as of your Monthly Payment Date on or next following the date of our
approval, and your Accumulated Value minus, if applicable, Policy Debt will be
allocated among the Investment Options in accordance with your most recent
premium allocation instructions.

                            CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
 
PREMIUM LOAD
   
  A premium load is deducted from each premium payment under your Policy prior
to allocation of the net premium to your Accumulated Value. The premium load
consists of the following items:     
 
    Sales Load. The sales load is equal to 4% of each premium paid during the
  first ten Policy Years and 2% of each premium paid thereafter.
     
    The sales load is deducted to compensate us for the cost of distributing
  the Policies. The amount we derive from the sales load is not expected to
  be sufficient to cover the sales and distribution expenses in connection
  with the Policies. If surrendered within 10 years after issuance, the
  Policy will also be subject to a sales surrender charge, which is described
  on page 25. To the extent that sales and distribution expenses exceed sales
  loads and any amounts derived from the sales surrender charge, such
  expenses may be recovered from other charges, including amounts derived
  indirectly from the charge for mortality and expense risks and from
  mortality gains.     
     
    We may reduce or waive the sales load on Policies sold to the directors
  or employees of Pacific Mutual or any of our affiliates or to trustees or
  any employees of the Fund.     
 
    State and Local Premium Tax Charge. A charge equal to 2.35% is assessed
  against each premium to pay applicable state and local premium taxes.
  Premium taxes vary from state to state, and in some instances, among
  municipalities. The 2.35% rate approximates the average tax rate expected
  to be paid on premiums from all states.
 
DEDUCTIONS FROM ACCUMULATED VALUE
   
  A charge called the monthly deduction is deducted from your Accumulated
Value in the Investment Options beginning on the Monthly Payment Date on or
next following the date we first become obligated under your Policy and on
each Monthly Payment Date thereafter. The monthly deduction consists of the
following items:     
   
  Cost of Insurance. This monthly charge compensates us for the anticipated
cost of paying death benefits in excess of Accumulated Value to Beneficiaries
of Insureds who die. We may use any profit derived from this charge for any
lawful purpose, including the cost of claims processing and investigation. The
amount of the charge is equal to a current cost of insurance rate multiplied
by the net amount at risk under your Policy at the beginning of the Policy
Month. The net amount at risk for these purposes is equal to the amount of
death benefit payable at the beginning of the Policy Month divided by 1.004074
(a discount factor to account for return deemed to be earned during the month)
less your Accumulated Value at the beginning of your Policy Month.     
   
  The Policy contains guaranteed cost of insurance rates that may not be
increased. The guaranteed rates are no greater than certain of the 1980
Commissioners Standard Ordinary Mortality Tables (and where unisex cost of
insurance rates apply, the 1980 Commissioners Ordinary Mortality Table B).
These rates are based on the Age and underwriting class of the Insured. They
are also based on the sex of the Insured, except that unisex rates are used
where appropriate under applicable law, including in the state of Montana and
in Policies purchased by employers and employee organizations in connection
with employment-related insurance or benefit programs. As of the date of this
prospectus, we charge "current rates" that are lower (i.e., less expensive)
than the guaranteed rates, and we may also charge current rates in the future.
Like the guaranteed rates, the current rates also vary with the Age, gender,
and underwriting class of the Insured. In addition, they also vary with the
Insured's smoking status, size of the Face Amount, and the policy duration.
Policies with Face Amounts of $500,000 or more receive more favorable rates
than Policies with smaller Face Amounts. The cost of insurance rate generally
increases with the Age of the Insured.     
   
  If there have been increases in your Face Amount, then for purposes of
calculating the cost of insurance charge, your Accumulated Value will first be
applied to the initial Face Amount. If your Accumulated Value exceeds the
initial Face Amount divided by 1.004074, the excess will then be applied to
any increase in Face Amount in the order of the increases. If the death
benefit equals Accumulated Value multiplied by the applicable death benefit
percentage, any increase in Accumulated Value will cause an automatic increase
in the death     
 
                                      23
<PAGE>
 
benefit. The underwriting class and duration for such increase will be the
same as that used for the most recent increase in Face Amount (that has not
been eliminated through a subsequent decrease in Face Amount).
   
  Administrative Charge. A monthly administrative charge is deducted equal to
$25 in each of the first 12 Policy Months and which varies with the size of a
Policy's Face Amount thereafter. For Face Amounts of less than $100,000, the
charge is equal to $7.50 per month; for Face Amounts of $100,000 or more, the
charge is equal to $5.00 per month. For purposes of this charge, only the
initial Face Amount is considered. The administrative charge is assessed to
reimburse us for the expenses associated with administration and maintenance
of the Policies. The administrative charge is guaranteed never to exceed $25
during the first 12 Policy Months and $10 per month thereafter. We do not
expect to profit from this charge.     
   
  Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. A monthly charge is deducted for
mortality and expense risks assumed by us. During the first ten Policy Years,
this charge is equal to .000625 multiplied by a Policy's Accumulated Value
less any amount in the Loan Account, which is equivalent to an annual rate of
 .75% of Accumulated Value less any amount in the Loan Account. After the tenth
Policy Year, the charge is equal to .000208333 multiplied by a Policy's
Accumulated Value less any amount in the Loan Account, which is equivalent to
an annual rate of .25% of Accumulated Value less any amount in the Loan
Account. For purposes of this charge, the Accumulated Value is based upon its
value on the Monthly Payment Date after the deduction of the charge for the
cost of insurance and any optional insurance benefits added by rider.     
   
  The mortality and expense risk charge is assessed to compensate us for
assuming certain mortality and expense risks under the Policies. The mortality
risk assumed is that Insureds, as a group, may live for a shorter period of
time than estimated and, therefore, the cost of insurance charges specified in
the Policy will be insufficient to meet actual claims. The expense risk
assumed is that other expenses incurred in issuing and administering the
Policies and operating the Separate Account will be greater than the charges
assessed for such expenses. We will realize a gain from this charge to the
extent it is not needed to provide the mortality benefits and expenses under
the Policies, and will realize a loss to the extent the charge is not
sufficient. We may use any profit derived from this charge for any lawful
purpose, including any distribution expenses not covered by the sales load or
sales surrender charge. See "Surrender Charge," below.     
   
  Optional Insurance Benefits Charges. The monthly deduction will include
charges for any optional insurance benefits added to the Policy by Rider. See
"Optional Insurance Benefits," page 35.     
   
  A death benefit change charge, if applicable, will also be deducted from
your Accumulated Value. If you request and we accept an increase in Face
Amount or a change in death benefit option from Option A to Option B, a charge
of $100 will be deducted from your Accumulated Value on the effective date of
the increase or option change to cover processing costs. The charge will be
deducted from the Investment Options in the proportion each bears to the
Accumulated Value of your Policy less Policy Debt.     
 
SURRENDER CHARGE
   
  We will assess a surrender charge against your Accumulated Value upon
surrender of your Policy within ten years after its issuance. The surrender
charge consists of two charges: an underwriting surrender charge and a sales
surrender charge.     
 
  Underwriting Surrender Charge. The underwriting surrender charge is equal to
a specified amount that varies with the Age of the Insured for each $1,000 of
a Policy's initial Face Amount in accordance with the following schedule:
 
<TABLE>

             41-50                                                  4.50
             51-60                                                  5.50
             61-80                                                  6.50
</TABLE>
 
                                      24
<PAGE>
 
The amount of the charge remains level for five Policy Years. After the fifth
Policy Anniversary, the charge decreases by 1.666% per month until it reaches
zero at the end of the 120th Policy Month.
 
  The charge is based upon the Age of the Insured and the Face Amount on the
Policy Date, and it does not increase as the Insured gets older or with
changes in the Face Amount. For example, if an Insured Age 25 purchases a
Policy with an initial Face Amount of $50,000 and surrenders the Policy in the
third Policy Year, the underwriting surrender charge would be $125.
   
  The underwriting surrender charge is designed to cover the administrative
expenses associated with underwriting and issuing a Policy, including the
costs of processing applications, conducting medical examinations, determining
insurability and the Insured's underwriting class, and establishing policy
records. We do not expect to profit from the underwriting surrender charge.
    
  Sales Surrender Charge. The sales surrender charge is equal to 26% of the
lesser of the premiums paid under the Policy or a maximum amount that is
called the Sales Surrender Target. The Sales Surrender Target is equal to the
premium that would be payable under a Policy for one year if a Policy Owner
were to pay level annual premiums for the life of the Policy, and taking into
account certain Policy charges including the premium load, the guaranteed cost
of insurance, and the mortality and expense risk charge, and assuming net
investment earnings at an annual rate of 5%. The Sales Surrender Target does
not increase as the Insured gets older or with changes in the Face Amount.
Generally, if a Policy Owner pays Planned Periodic Premiums, the sales
surrender charge will be 26% of premium payments until the first Policy
Anniversary, and will be 26% of the Sales Surrender Target thereafter. The
sales surrender charge will not exceed 26% of the Sales Surrender Target for
five Policy Years. After the fifth Policy Year, the charge decreases from its
maximum by 1.666% per month until it reaches zero at the end of the 120th
Policy Month.
 
  For example, if a Male Insured Age 25 purchases a Policy with a Face Amount
of $50,000, the sales surrender target, based upon the assumptions described
above, would be $387.50. The maximum sales surrender charge during the first
five Policy Years would be 26% of this amount, or $100.75.
   
  The purpose of the sales surrender charge is to reimburse us for some of the
expenses of distributing the Policies.     
   
  We may reduce or waive the sales surrender charge on Policies sold to the
directors or employees of Pacific Mutual or any of our affiliates or to
trustees or any employees of the Fund.     
 
CORPORATE PURCHASERS
   
  The Policy is available for individuals and for corporations and other
institutions. For corporate or other group or sponsored arrangements
purchasing one or more Policies, we may reduce the amount of the sales
surrender charge, underwriting surrender charge, or other charges where the
expenses associated with the sale of, or the underwriting or other
administrative costs associated with the Policy or Policies are reduced.
Sales, underwriting or other administrative expenses may be reduced for
reasons such as expected economies resulting from a corporate purchase or a
group or sponsored arrangement, from the amount of the initial premium payment
or payments, or the amount of projected premium payments.     
 
OTHER CHARGES
   
  We may charge the Variable Accounts for federal income taxes incurred by us
that are attributable to the Separate Account and its Variable Accounts. No
such charge is currently assessed. See "Charge for Pacific Mutual Income
Taxes," page 29.     
   
  We will bear the direct operating expenses of the Separate Account. Each
Variable Account available to you purchases shares of the corresponding
Portfolio of the underlying Fund. The Fund and each of its Portfolios incur
certain charges including the investment advisory fee and certain operating
expenses. The Fund is governed by its Board of Trustees. The Fund's expenses
are not fixed or specified under the terms of the Policy, and these expenses
may vary from year to year. The advisory fees and other expenses are more
fully described in the prospectus of the Fund.

GUARANTEE OF CERTAIN CHARGES
   
  We guarantee that certain charges will not increase. This includes the
charge for mortality and expense risks, the administrative charge with respect
to the guaranteed rates described above, the premium load, the guaranteed cost
of insurance rates, and the surrender charge.     
 
                               OTHER INFORMATION
 
FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS
   
  The following discussion provides a general description of the federal
income tax considerations relating to the Policy. This discussion is based
upon our understanding of the present federal income tax laws as they are
currently interpreted by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"). This discussion
is not intended as tax advice. Because of the inherent complexity of such laws
and the fact that tax results will vary according to the particular
circumstances of the individual involved, tax advice may be needed by a person
contemplating the purchase of the Policy. It should, therefore, be understood
that these comments concerning federal income tax consequences are not an
exhaustive discussion of all tax questions that might arise under the Policy
and that special rules which are not discussed herein may apply in certain
situations. Moreover, no representation is made as to the likelihood of
continuation of federal income tax or estate or gift tax laws or of the
current interpretations by the IRS or the courts. Future legislation may
adversely affect the tax treatment of life insurance policies or other tax
rules described in this discussion or that relate directly or indirectly to
life insurance policies. Finally, these comments do not take into account any
state or local income tax considerations which may be involved in the purchase
of the Policy.     
   
   While we believe that the Policy meets the statutory definition of life
insurance and hence will receive federal income tax treatment consistent with
that of fixed life insurance, the area of the tax law relating to the
definition of life insurance does not explicitly address all relevant issues
(including, for example, the treatment of substandard risk Policies and
Policies with term insurance on the Insured). We reserve the right to make
changes to the Policy if changes are deemed appropriate by us to attempt to
assure qualification of the Policy as a life insurance contract. If a Policy
were determined not to qualify as life insurance, the Policy would not provide
the tax advantages normally provided by life insurance. The discussion below
summarizes the tax treatment of life insurance contracts.     
   
  The death benefit under a Policy should be excludable from the gross income
of the Beneficiary (whether the Beneficiary is a corporation, individual or
other entity) under Section 101(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") for
purposes of the regular federal income tax and you generally should not be
deemed to be in constructive receipt of the cash values, including increments
thereof, under the Policy until a full surrender thereof, maturity of the
Policy, or a Preferred or Partial Withdrawal. In addition, certain Policy
loans may be taxable in the case of Policies that are modified endowment
contracts. Prospective Owners that intend to use Policies to fund deferred
compensation arrangements for their employees are urged to consult their tax
advisors with respect to the tax consequences of such arrangements.
Prospective corporate Owners should consult their tax advisors about the
treatment of life insurance in their particular circumstances for purposes of
the alternative minimum tax applicable to corporations and the environmental
tax under IRC section 59A. Changing the Policy Owner may also have tax
consequences. Exchanging a Policy for another involving the same Insured
generally will not result in the recognition of gain or loss according to
Section 1035(a) of the IRC. Changing the Insured under a Policy will, however,
not be treated as a tax-free exchange under Section 1035, but rather as a
taxable exchange.     
 
  Diversification Requirements. To comply with regulations under Section
817(h) of the IRC, each Portfolio of the Fund is required to diversify its
investments. For details on these diversification requirements, see "What is
the Federal Income Tax Status of the Fund" in the Fund's prospectus.
 
  The IRS has stated in published rulings that a variable contract owner will
be considered the owner of separate account assets if the contract owner
possesses incidents of ownership in those assets, such as the ability to
exercise investment control over the assets. In those circumstances, income
and gains from the separate
 
                                      26
<PAGE>
 
account assets would be includable in the variable policy owner's gross
income. The Treasury Department also announced, in connection with the
issuance of regulations concerning diversification, that those regulations "do
not provide guidance concerning the circumstances in which investor control of
the investments of a segregated asset account may cause the investor [i.e. the
Policy Owner], rather than the insurance company, to be treated as the owner
of the assets in the account." This announcement also stated the guidance
would be issued by way of regulations or rulings on the "extent to which
policyholders may direct their investments to particular subaccounts without
being treated as owners of the underlying assets." As of the date of this
prospectus, no such guidance has been issued.
   
  The ownership rights under your Policy are similar to, but different in
certain respects from, those described by the IRS in rulings in which it was
determined that policy owners were not owners of separate account assets. For
example, you have additional flexibility in allocating premium payments and
Policy values. These differences could result in your being treated as the
owner of your Policy's pro rata portion of the assets of the Separate Account.
In addition, we do not know what standards will be set forth, if any, in the
regulations or ruling which the Treasury Department has stated it expects to
issue. We therefore reserve the right to modify the Policy, as deemed
appropriate by us, to attempt to prevent you from being considered the owner
of your Policy's pro rata share of the assets of the Separate Account.
Moreover, in the event that regulations are adopted or rulings are issued,
there can be no asssurance that the Portfolio will be able to operate as
currently described in the Prospectus, or that the Fund will not have to
change any Portfolio's investment objective or investment policies.     
   
  Tax Treatment of Policies. IRC Section 7702A defines a class of life
insurance contracts referred to as modified endowment contracts. Under this
provision, the Policies will be treated for tax purposes in one of two ways.
Policies that are not classified as modified endowment contracts will be taxed
as conventional life insurance contracts, as described below. Taxation of pre-
death distributions from Policies that are classified as modified endowment
contracts and that are entered into on or after June 21, 1988 is somewhat
different, as described below.     
   
  A life insurance contract becomes a "modified endowment contract" if, at any
time during the first seven contract years, the sum of actual premiums paid
exceeds the sum of the "seven-pay premium." Generally, the "seven-pay premium"
is the level annual premium, such that if paid for each of the first seven
years, will fully pay for all future death and endowment benefits under a
contract. For example, if the "seven-pay premiums" were $1,000, the maximum
premiums that could be paid during the first seven years to avoid "modified
endowment" treatment would be $1,000 in the first year; $2,000 through the
first two years and $3,000 through the first three years, etc. Under this
test, a Select Exec Policy may or may not be a modified endowment contract,
depending on the amount of premiums paid during each of the Policy's first
seven contract years. Changes in the policy, including changes in death
benefits, may require "retesting" of a Policy to determine if it is to be
classified as a modified endowment contract.     
 
  Conventional Life Insurance Policies. If a Policy is not a modified
endowment contract, upon full surrender or maturity of a Policy for its Net
Cash Surrender Value, the excess, if any, of the Net Cash Surrender Value plus
any outstanding Policy Debt over the cost basis under a Policy will be treated
as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. Such a Policy's cost basis
will usually equal the premiums paid less any premiums previously recovered in
Preferred or Partial Withdrawals. Under Section 7702 of the IRC, if a
Preferred Withdrawal occurring within 15 years of the Policy Date is
accompanied by a reduction in benefits under the Policy, special rules apply
to determine whether part or all of the cash received is paid out of the
income of the Policy and is taxable. Cash distributed to a Policy Owner on
Partial Withdrawals occurring more than 15 years after the Policy Date will be
taxable as ordinary income to the Policy Owner to the extent that it exceeds
the cost basis under a Policy.
   
  We also believe that loans received under Policies that are not modified
endowment contracts will be treated as indebtedness of the Owner for Federal
income tax purposes, and that no part of any loan under the Policy will
constitute income to the Owner unless the Policy is surrendered or matures or
lapses. Consult with your tax advisor on whether interest paid (or accrued by
an accrual basis taxpayer) on a loan under a Policy that is not a modified
endowment contract may be deductible. Tax law provisions may limit the
deduction of interest payable on loan proceeds that are used to purchase or
carry certain life insurance policies.     
 
                                      27
<PAGE>
 
  Modified Endowment Contracts. Pre-death distributions from modified
endowment contracts may give rise to taxable income. Upon full surrender or
maturity of the Policy, the Policy Owner would recognize ordinary income for
federal income tax purposes equal to the amount by which the Net Cash
Surrender Value plus Policy Debt exceeds the investment in the Policy (usually
the premiums paid plus certain pre-death distributions that were taxable less
any premiums previously recovered that were excludable from gross income).
Upon Preferred and Partial Withdrawals and Policy loans, the Policy Owner
would recognize ordinary income to the extent allocable to income (which
includes all previously non-taxed gains) on the Policy. The amount allocated
to income is the amount by which the Accumulated Value of the Policy exceeds
investment in the Policy immediately before the distribution. Under a tax law
provision, if two or more policies which are classified as modified endowment
contracts are purchased from any one insurance company, including Pacific
Mutual, during any calendar year, all such policies will be aggregated for
purposes of determining the portion of the pre-death distributions allocable
to income on the policies and the portion allocable to investment in the
policies.
 
  Amounts received under a modified endowment contract that are included in
gross income are subject to an additional tax equal to 10% of the amount
included in gross income, unless an exception applies. The 10% additional tax
does not apply to any amount received: (i) when the taxpayer is at least 59
1/2 years old; (ii) which is attributable to the taxpayer becoming disabled;
or (iii) which is part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments
(not less frequently than annually) made for the life (or life expectancy) of
the taxpayer or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the taxpayer
and his or her beneficiary.
 
  If a Policy was not originally a modified endowment contract but becomes
one, under Treasury Department regulations which are yet to be prescribed,
pre-death distributions received in anticipation of a failure of a Policy to
meet the seven-pay premium test are to be treated as pre-death distributions
from a modified endowment contract (and, therefore, are to be taxable as
described above) even though, at the time of the distribution(s) the Policy
was not yet a modified endowment contract. For this purpose, pursuant to the
IRC, any distribution made within two years before the Policy is classified as
a modified endowment contract shall be treated as being made in anticipation
of the Policy's failing to meet the seven-pay premium test.
   
  It is unclear whether interest paid (or accrued by an accrual basis
taxpayer) on Policy Debt with respect to a modified endowment contract
constitutes interest for federal income tax purposes. Consult your tax
advisor. Tax law provisions may limit the deduction of interest payable on
loan proceeds that are used to purchase or carry certain life insurance
policies.     
          
  Reasonableness Requirement for Charges. Another provision of the tax law
deals with allowable charges for mortality costs and other expenses that are
used in making calculations to determine whether a contract qualifies as life
insurance for federal income tax purposes. For life insurance policies entered
into on or after October 21, 1988, these calculations must be based upon
reasonable mortality charges and other charges reasonably expected to be
actually paid. The Treasury Department has issued proposed regulations and is
expected to promulgate temporary or final regulations governing reasonableness
standards for mortality charges. While we believe under IRS pronouncements
currently in effect that the mortality costs and other expenses used in making
calculations to determine whether the Policy qualifies as life insurance meet
the current requirements, complete assurance cannot be given that the IRS
would necessarily agree. It is possible that future regulations will contain
standards that would require us to modify our mortality charges used for the
purposes of the calculations in order to retain the qualification of the
Policy as life insurance for federal income tax purposes, and we reserve the
right to make any such modifications.     
 
  Other. Federal estate and gift and state and local estate, inheritance, and
other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of Policy proceeds depend on
the jurisdiction and the circumstances of each Owner or Beneficiary.
 
  For complete information on federal, state, local and other tax
considerations, a qualified tax adviser should be consulted.
 
  PACIFIC MUTUAL DOES NOT MAKE ANY GUARANTEE REGARDING THE TAX STATUS OF ANY
POLICY.

<PAGE>
 
CHARGE FOR PACIFIC MUTUAL INCOME TAXES
   
  For federal income tax purposes, variable life insurance generally is
treated in a manner consistent with fixed life insurance. We will review the
question of a charge to the Separate Account for our federal income taxes
periodically. A charge may be made for any federal income taxes incurred by
Pacific Mutual that are attributable to the Separate Account. This might
become necessary if the tax treatment of Pacific Mutual is ultimately
determined to be other than what we currently believe it to be, if there are
changes made in the federal income tax treatment of variable life insurance at
the insurance company level, or if there is a change in our tax status.     
   
  Under current laws, we may incur state and local taxes (in addition to
premium taxes) in several states. At present, these taxes are not significant.
If there is a material change in applicable state or local tax laws, we
reserve the right to charge the Account for such taxes, if any, attributable
to the Account.     
 
VOTING OF FUND SHARES
   
  In accordance with its view of present applicable law, we will exercise
voting rights attributable to the shares of each Portfolio of the Fund held in
the Variable Accounts at any regular and special meetings of the shareholders
of the Fund on matters requiring shareholder voting under the Investment
Company Act of 1940. We will exercise these voting rights based on
instructions received from persons having the voting interest in corresponding
Variable Accounts of the Separate Account. However, if the Investment Company
Act of 1940 or any regulations thereunder should be amended, or if the present
interpretation thereof should change, and as a result we determine that we are
permitted to vote the shares of the Fund in its own right, we may elect to do
so.     
   
  You are the person having the voting interest under a Policy. Unless
otherwise required by applicable law, the number of votes as to which a Policy
Owner will have the right to instruct will be determined by dividing your
Accumulated Value in a Variable Account by the net asset value per share of
the corresponding Portfolio of the Fund. Fractional votes will be counted. The
number of votes as to which you will have the right to instruct will be
determined as of the date coincident with the date established by the Fund for
determining shareholders eligible to vote at the meeting of the Fund. If
required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, we reserve the right to
determine in a different fashion the voting rights attributable to the shares
of the Fund based upon the instructions received from Policy Owners. Voting
instructions may be cast in person or by proxy.     
   
  Voting rights attributable to the Policy Owner's Accumulated Value held in
each Variable Account for which no timely voting instructions are received
will be voted by us in the same proportion as the voting instructions which
are received in a timely manner for all policies participating in that
Variable Account. We will also exercise the voting rights from assets in each
Variable Account which are not otherwise attributable to policy owners, if
any, in the same proportion as the voting instructions which are received in a
timely manner for all policies participating in that Variable Account. If we
hold shares of a Portfolio in our General Account and/or if any of our non-
insurance subsidiaries holds shares of a Portfolio, such shares will be voted
in the same proportion as votes cast by the Separate Account and our other
separate accounts, in the aggregate.     
 
DISREGARD OF VOTING INSTRUCTIONS
   
  We may, when required by state insurance regulatory authorities, disregard
voting instructions if the instructions require that voting rights be
exercised so as to cause a change in the subclassification or investment
objective of a Portfolio or to approve or disapprove an investment advisory
contract. In addition, we may disregard voting instructions of changes
initiated by Policy Owners in the investment policy or the investment adviser
(or portfolio manager) of a Portfolio, provided that our disapproval of the
change is reasonable and is based on a good faith determination that the
change would be contrary to state law or otherwise inappropriate, considering
the Portfolio's objectives and purpose, and considering the effect the change
would have on us. In the event we do disregard voting instructions, a summary
of that action and the reasons for such action will be included in the next
report to Policy Owners.

CONFIRMATION STATEMENTS AND OTHER REPORTS TO OWNERS     
   
  A statement will be sent quarterly to you setting forth a summary of the
transactions which occurred during the quarter and indicating the death
benefit, Face Amount, Accumulated Value, Cash Surrender Value, and any Policy
Debt. In addition, the statement will indicate the allocation of Accumulated
Value among the Investment Options and any other information required by law.
Confirmations will be sent out upon premium payments, transfers, loans, loan
repayments, withdrawals, and surrenders. Confirmations of scheduled
transactions under dollar cost averaging, portfolio rebalancing and monthly
deductions will appear on your quarterly statements.     
   
  You will also be sent an annual and a semiannual report containing financial
statements for the Separate Account and the Fund, the latter of which will
include a list of the portfolio securities of the Fund, as required by the
Investment Company Act of 1940, and/or such other reports as may be required
by federal securities laws.     
 
SUBSTITUTION OF INVESTMENTS
   
  We reserve the right, subject to compliance with the law as then in effect,
to make additions to, deletions from, or substitutions for the securities that
are held by the Separate Account or any Variable Account or that the Separate
Account or any Variable Account may purchase. If shares of any or all of the
Portfolios of the Fund should no longer be available for investment, or if, in
the judgment of our management, further investment in shares of any or all
Portfolios of the Fund should become inappropriate in view of the purposes of
the Policies, we may substitute shares of another Portfolio of the Fund or of
a different fund for shares already purchased, or to be purchased in the
future under the Policies.     
   
  Where required, we will not substitute any shares attributable to your
interest in a Variable Account or the Separate Account without notice, your
approval, or prior approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission and
without following the filing or other procedures established by applicable
state insurance regulators.     
   
  We also reserve the right to establish additional Variable Accounts of the
Separate Account, each of which would invest in a new Portfolio of the Fund,
or in shares of another investment company, a portfolio thereof, or suitable
investment vehicle, with a specified investment objective. New Variable
Accounts may be established when, at our sole discretion, marketing needs or
investment conditions warrant, and any new Variable Accounts will be made
available to existing Policy Owners on a basis to be determined by us. We may
also eliminate one or more Variable Accounts if, in our sole discretion,
marketing, tax, or investment conditions so warrant. We may also terminate and
liquidate any Variable Account.     
   
  In the event of any such substitution or change, we may, by appropriate
endorsement, make such changes in this and other policies as may be necessary
or appropriate to reflect such substitution or change. If deemed by us to be
in the best interests of persons having voting rights under the Policies, the
Separate Account may be operated as a management investment company under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 or any other form permitted by law, it may be
deregistered under that Act in the event such registration is no longer
required, or it may be combined with other separate accounts of Pacific Mutual
or an affiliate thereof. Subject to compliance with applicable law, we also
may combine one or more Variable Accounts and may establish a committee,
board, or other group to manage one or more aspects of the operation of the
Separate Account.     
 
CHANGES TO COMPLY WITH LAW
   
  We reserve the right to make any change without your consent to the
provisions of the Policy to comply with, or give you the benefit of, any
Federal or State statute, rule, or regulation, including but not limited to
requirements for life insurance contracts under the Internal Revenue Code,
under regulations of the United States Treasury Department or any state.

                            PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
   
  Performance information for the Variable Accounts may appear in
advertisements, sales literature, or reports to Policy Owners or prospective
purchasers. Performance information in advertisements or sales literature may
be expressed in any fashion permitted under applicable law, which may include
presentation of a change in a Policy Owner's Accumulated Value attributable to
the performance of one or more Variable Accounts, or as a change in Policy
Owner's death benefit. Performance quotations may be expressed as a change in
a Policy Owner's Accumulated Value over time or in terms of the average annual
compounded rate of return on the Policy Owner's Accumulated Value, based upon
a hypothetical Policy in which premiums have been allocated to a particular
Variable Account over certain periods of time that will include one year, or
from the commencement of operation of the Variable Account. If a Portfolio has
been in existence for a longer period of time than its corresponding Variable
Account, we may also present hypothetical returns that the Variable Account
would have achieved had it invested in its corresponding Portfolio for periods
through the commencement of the operation of the Portfolio. For the period
that a particular Variable Account has been in existence, the performance will
be actual performance and not hypothetical in nature. Any such quotation may
reflect the deduction of all applicable charges to the Policy including
premium load, the cost of insurance, the administrative charge, and the
mortality and expense risk charge. The quotation may also reflect the
deduction of the surrender charge, if applicable, by assuming a surrender at
the end of the particular period, although other quotations may simultaneously
be given that do not assume a surrender and do not take into account deduction
of the surrender charge or other charges.     
   
  Performance information for a Variable Account may be compared, in
advertisements, sales literature, and reports to Policy Owners to: (i) other
variable life separate accounts or investment products tracked by research
firms, ratings services, companies, publications, or persons who rank separate
accounts or investment products on overall performance or other criteria; and
(ii) the Consumer Price Index (measure for inflation) to assess the real rate
of return from the purchase of a Policy. Reports and promotional literature
may also contain our rating or a rating of our claim-paying ability as
determined by firms that analyze and rate insurance companies and by
nationally recognized statistical rating organizations.     
 
  Performance information for any Variable Account of the Separate Account
reflects only the performance of a hypothetical Policy whose Accumulated Value
is allocated to the Variable Account during a particular time period on which
the calculations are based. Performance information should be considered in
light of the investment objectives and policies, characteristics and quality
of the Portfolio of the Fund in which the Variable Account invests, and the
market conditions during the given period of time, and should not be
considered as a representation of what may be achieved in the future.
 
                               THE FIXED ACCOUNT
   
  You may allocate all or a portion of your net premium payments and transfer
Accumulated Value to the Fixed Account. Amounts allocated to the Fixed Account
become part of our General Account, which supports insurance and annuity
obligations. Because of exemptive and exclusionary provisions, interests in
the Fixed Account have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933
and the Fixed Account has not been registered as an investment company under
the Investment Company Act of 1940. Accordingly, neither the Fixed Account nor
any interest therein is generally subject to the provisions of these Acts and,
as a result, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has not
reviewed the disclosure in this prospectus relating to the Fixed Account.
Disclosures regarding the Fixed Account may, however, be subject to certain
generally applicable provisions of the federal securities laws relating to the
accuracy and completeness of statements made in the prospectus. For more
details regarding the Fixed Account, see the Policy itself.     
 
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
   
  Amounts allocated to the Fixed Account become part of our General Account
which consists of all assets owned by us other than those in the Separate
Account and our other separate accounts. Subject to applicable law, we have
sole discretion over the investment of the assets of our General Account.     
 
                                      31
<PAGE>
 
   
  You may elect to allocate net premium payments to the Fixed Account, the
Separate Account, or both. You may also transfer Accumulated Value from the
Variable Accounts to the Fixed Account, or from the Fixed Account to the
Variable Accounts, subject to the limitations described below. We guarantee
that the Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account will be credited with a
minimum interest rate of .32737% per month, compounded monthly, for a minimum
effective annual rate of 4%. Such interest will be paid regardless of the
actual investment experience of the Fixed Account. In addition, we may in our
sole discretion declare current interest in excess of the 4%, which will be
guaranteed for one year. (The portion of your Accumulated Value that has been
used to secure Policy Debt will be credited with an interest rate of .32737%
per month, compounded monthly, for an effective annual rate of 4%.)     
   
  We bear the full investment risk for the Accumulated Value allocated to the
Fixed Account.     
 
DEATH BENEFIT
   
  The death benefit under the Policy will be determined in the same fashion
for an Owner who has Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account as for an Owner
who has Accumulated Value in the Variable Accounts. The death benefit under
Option A will be equal to the Face Amount of the Policy or, if greater,
Accumulated Value multiplied by a death benefit percentage. Under Option B,
the death benefit will be equal to the Face Amount of the Policy plus the
Accumulated Value or, if greater, Accumulated Value multiplied by a death
benefit percentage. See "Death Benefit," page 15.     
 
POLICY CHARGES
   
  Policy charges will be the same whether you allocate net premiums or
transfer Accumulated Value to the Fixed Account or allocate net premiums to
the Variable Accounts. These charges consist of the premium load, including
the sales load and state and local premium tax charge; the deductions from
Accumulated Value, including the charges for the cost of insurance,
administrative charge, mortality and expense risk charge, the charge for any
optional insurance benefits added by rider, any death benefit change charge;
and the surrender charge, including the underwriting surrender charge and the
sales surrender charge. Any amounts that we pay for income taxes allocable to
the Variable Accounts will not be charged against the Fixed Account. In
addition, the operating expenses of the Variable Accounts, as well as the
investment advisory fee charged by the Fund, will not be paid directly or
indirectly by you to the extent the Accumulated Value is allocated to the
Fixed Account; however, to such extent you will not participate in the
investment experience of the Variable Accounts.     
 
TRANSFERS, SURRENDERS, WITHDRAWALS, AND POLICY LOANS
   
  Amounts may be transferred after the Free-Look Period from the Variable
Accounts to the Fixed Account and from the Fixed Account to the Variable
Accounts, subject to the following limitations. You may not make more than one
transfer from the Fixed Account to the Variable Accounts in any 12-month
period. Further, effective June 1, 1996, you may not transfer more than the
greater of 25% of your Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account or $5,000 in any
year. Until June 1, 1996, if you have $1,000 or more in the Fixed Account, you
may not transfer more than 20% of such amount to the Variable Accounts in any
year. Currently there is no charge imposed upon transfers; however, we reserve
the right to assess such a charge in the future and to impose other
limitations on the number of transfers, the amount of transfers, and the
amount remaining in the Fixed Account or Variable Accounts after a transfer.
Transfers from the Variable Accounts to the Fixed Account may be made in the
Policy Month preceding a Policy Anniversary, except that Policy Owners
residing in Maryland, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania may make such a transfer
at any time during the first 18 Policy Months.     
   
  You may also make full surrenders, Preferred Withdrawals and Partial
Withdrawals to the same extent as a Policy Owner who has invested in the
Variable Accounts. See "Surrender," page 20, and "Preferred and Partial
Withdrawal Benefits," page 20. You may borrow up to the greater of (1) 90% of
the Accumulated Value in the Variable Accounts and 100% of the Accumulated
Value in the Fixed Account, less any surrender charges that would have been
imposed if your Policy were surrendered on the date the loan is taken or (2)
100% of the product of (a X b/c - d) where (a) equals your Policy's
Accumulated Value less any surrender charge that would be imposed if your
Policy were surrendered on the date the loan is taken and less 12 times the
current     
 
                                      32

monthly deduction; (b) equals 1 plus the annual loan interest rate credited;
(c) equals 1 plus the annual loan interest rate currently charged; and (d)
equals any existing policy Debt. See "Policy Loans," page 19. Transfers,
surrenders, and withdrawals payable from the Fixed Account, and the payment of
Policy loans allocated to the Fixed Account, may be delayed for up to six
months.     
 
                             MORE ABOUT THE POLICY
 
OWNERSHIP
   
  The Policy Owner is the individual named as such in the application or in
any later change shown in our records. While the Insured is living, the Policy
Owner alone has the right to receive all benefits and exercise all rights that
the Policy grants or we allow.     
 
  Joint Owners. If more than one person is named as Policy Owner, they are
joint owners. Any Policy transaction requires the signature of all persons
named jointly. Unless otherwise provided, if a joint owner dies, ownership
passes to the surviving joint owner(s). When the last joint owner dies,
ownership passes through that person's estate, unless otherwise provided.
 
BENEFICIARY
   
  The Beneficiary is the individual named as such in the application or any
later change shown in our records. You may change the Beneficiary at any time
during the life of the Insured by written request on forms provided by us,
which must be received by us at our Home Office. The change will be effective
as of the date this form is signed. Contingent and/or concurrent Beneficiaries
may be designated. You may designate a permanent Beneficiary, whose rights
under the Policy cannot be changed without his or her consent. Unless
otherwise provided, if no designated Beneficiary is living upon the death of
the Insured, you are or your estate is the Beneficiary.     
   
  We will pay the death benefit proceeds to the Beneficiary. Unless otherwise
provided, in order to receive proceeds at the Insured's death, the Beneficiary
must be living at the time of the Insured's death.     
 
EXCHANGE OF INSURED
   
  After the first Policy Year and subject to our approval, you may exchange
the named Insured on the Policy upon written application, evidence of
insurability satisfactory to us, and payment of a charge of $100. The exchange
is effective the first Monthly Payment Date on or after the exchange is
approved. Coverage on the new Insured will become effective on the exchange
date. Coverage on the current Insured will terminate on the day preceding the
exchange date. The Policy Date will not be changed unless the new Insured was
born after the Policy Date. In such case, the Policy Date will be changed to
the Policy anniversary on or next following the birth date of the new Insured.
The cost of insurance charge will be based on the new Insured's Age and
underwriting class.     
   
  We reserve the right to disallow a requested exchange of the named Insured,
and will not permit a requested exchange, among other reasons, (1) if
compliance with the guideline premium limitations under tax law resulting from
the exchange of Insured would result in the immediate termination of the
Policy, or (2) if, to effect the requested exchange of Insured, payments to
you would have to be made from Accumulated Value for compliance with the
guideline premium limitations, and the amount of such payments would exceed
the Net Cash Surrender Value under the Policy.     
   
  A fee of $100 will be charged to cover the costs of processing the exchange
of Insured. This amount will not be credited to or deducted from Accumulated
Value but must be paid directly to us by you before the request for an
exchange of Insured will be processed.

THE CONTRACT
 
  This Policy is a contract between the Owner and Pacific Mutual. The entire
contract consists of the Policy, a copy of the initial application, all
subsequent applications to change the Policy, any endorsements, all Riders,
and all additional Policy information sections (specification pages) added to
the Policy.
 
PAYMENTS
   
  We ordinarily will pay death benefit proceeds, Net Cash Surrender Value on
surrender, Preferred Withdrawals, Partial Withdrawals, and loan proceeds based
on allocations made to the Variable Accounts, and will effect a transfer
between Variable Accounts or from a Variable Account to the Fixed Account
within seven days after we receive all the information needed to process a
payment or, if sooner, other period required by law.     
   
  However, we can postpone the calculation or payment of such a payment or
transfer of amounts based on investment performance of the Variable Accounts
if:     
 
  . The New York Stock Exchange is closed on other than customary weekend and
    holiday closing or trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted
    as determined by the SEC; or
 
  . An emergency exists, as determined by the SEC, as a result of which
    disposal of securities is not reasonably practicable or it is not
    reasonably practicable to determine the value of the Account's net
    assets; or
 
  . The SEC by order permits postponement for the protection of Policy
    Owners.
 
ASSIGNMENT
   
  You may assign a Policy as collateral security for a loan or other
obligation. No assignment will bind us unless the original, or a copy, is
received at our Home Office, and will be effective only when recorded by us.
An assignment does not change the ownership of the Policy. However, after an
assignment, the rights of any Owner or Beneficiary will be subject to the
assignment. The entire Policy, including any attached payment option or Rider,
will be subject to the assignment. We will rely solely on the assignee's
statement as to the amount of the assignee's interest. We will not be
responsible for the validity of any assignment. Unless otherwise provided, the
assignee may exercise all rights this Policy grants except (a) the right to
change the Owner or Beneficiary; and (b) the right to elect a payment option.
Assignment of a Policy that is a modified endowment contract may generate
taxable income. (See "Federal Income Tax Considerations," page 26.)     
 
ERRORS ON THE APPLICATION
   
  If the Age or sex of the Insured has been misstated, the death benefit under
your Policy will be the greater of that which would be purchased by the most
recent cost of insurance charge at the correct Age and sex, or the death
benefit derived by multiplying Accumulated Value by the death benefit
percentage for the correct Age and sex. If the Insured's Age or sex is
misstated in the application, the Accumulated Value will be modified by
recalculating all prior cost of insurance charges and other monthly deductions
based on the correct Age and sex. If unisex cost of insurance rates apply, no
adjustment will be made for a misstatement of sex. See "Cost of Insurance,"
page 23.     
 
INCONTESTABILITY
   
  We may contest the validity of your Policy if any material misstatements are
made in the application. However, your Policy will be incontestable after the
expiration of the following: the initial Face Amount cannot be contested after
your Policy has been in force during the Insured's lifetime for two years from
the Policy Date; if the Insured is changed, your Policy cannot be contested
after it has been in force during the new Insured's lifetime for two years
from the effective date of the exchange; and an increase in the Face Amount
cannot be contested after the increase has been in force during an Insured's
lifetime for two years from its effective date.     
 
                                      34
<PAGE>
 
PAYMENT IN CASE OF SUICIDE
   
  If the Insured dies by suicide, while sane or insane, within two years from
the Policy Date, we will limit the death benefit proceeds to the premium
payments less any withdrawal amounts and less any Policy Debt. If the Insured
has been changed and the new Insured dies by suicide, while sane or insane,
within two years of the exchange date, the death benefit proceeds will be
limited to your Net Cash Surrender Value as of the exchange date, plus the
premiums paid since the exchange date, less the sum of any increases in Debt,
withdrawal amounts, and any dividends paid in cash since the exchange date. If
an Insured dies by suicide, while sane or insane, within two years of the
effective date of any increase in the Face Amount, we will refund the cost of
insurance charges made with respect to such increase.     
 
PARTICIPATING
   
  The Policy is participating and will share in our surplus earnings. However,
the current dividend scale is zero and we do not anticipate that dividends
will be paid. Any dividends that do become payable will be paid in cash.     
 
POLICY ILLUSTRATIONS
   
  Upon request, Pacific Mutual will send the Policy Owner an illustration of
future benefits under the Policy based on both guaranteed and current cost
factor assumptions. However, we reserve the right to charge a fee for requests
for illustrations in excess of one per Policy Year.     
 
PAYMENT PLAN
   
  Maturity, surrender, or withdrawal benefits may be used to purchase a
payment plan providing monthly income for the lifetime of the Insured, and
death benefit proceeds may be used to purchase a payment plan providing
monthly income for the lifetime of the Beneficiary. The monthly payments
consisting of proceeds plus interest will be paid in equal installments for at
least ten years. The purchase rates for the payment plan are guaranteed not to
exceed those shown in your Policy, but current rates that are lower (i.e.,
providing greater income) may be established by us from time to time. This
benefit is not available if the income would be less than $25 a month.
Maturity, surrender, or withdrawal benefits or death benefit proceeds may be
used to purchase any other payment plan that we make available at that time.
    
OPTIONAL INSURANCE BENEFITS
   
  At the time you complete the application for a Policy and subject to certain
requirements, you may elect to add one or more Riders to the Policy as
optional insurance benefits (subject to approval of state insurance
authorities). These optional benefits are: additional insurance coverage for
the accidental death of the Insured (Accidental Death Rider); term insurance
on the Insured's children (Children's Term Rider); annual renewal term
insurance on the Insured or any member of his or her immediate family (Annual
Renewable Term Rider); added protection benefit on the Insured (Added
Protection Benefit Rider); the right to purchase additional insurance on the
Insured's life on certain specified dates without proof of insurability
(Guaranteed Insurability Rider); additional protection in the event of a
disability (Waiver of Charges Rider); or early payment of coverage if the
Insured is diagnosed with a terminal illness (Accelerated Living Benefit
Rider). The cost of any additional insurance benefits will be deducted as part
of the monthly deduction against Accumulated Value. See "Charges and
Deductions," page 23. The amounts of these benefits are fully guaranteed at
issue. Certain restrictions may apply and are described in the applicable
Rider. Under certain circumstances, a Policy can be combined with an annual
renewable term insurance rider (or added protection benefit rider) to result
in a combined coverage amount (face amount) equal to the same Face Amount that
could be acquired under a single Policy. For a given Insured, combining a
Policy and a rider may result in a surrender charge for the Policy that is
lower than the single Policy providing the same Face Amount. An insurance
agent authorized to sell the Policy can describe these extra benefits further.
Samples of the provisions are available from Pacific Mutual upon written
request.

LIFE INSURANCE RETIREMENT PLANS     
 
  Any Policy Owners or applicants who wish to consider using the Policy as a
funding vehicle for (non-qualified) retirement plans may obtain additional
information from Pacific Mutual. An Owner could pay premiums under a Policy
for a number of years, and upon retirement, could utilize a Policy's loan and
partial withdrawal features to provide retirement income for a period of time.
   
  Ledger illustrations are available upon request that portray how the Policy
can be used as a funding mechanism for (non-qualified) retirement plans,
referred to herein as "life insurance retirement plans," for individuals.
Ledger illustrations provided upon request show the effect on Accumulated
Value, Net Cash Surrender Value, and the net death benefit of premiums paid
under a Policy and partial withdrawals and loans taken for retirement income,
or reflecting allocation of premiums to specified Variable Accounts. This
information will be portrayed at hypothetical rates of return that are
requested. Charts and graphs presenting the results of the ledger
illustrations or a comparison of retirement strategies will also be furnished
upon request. Any graphic presentations and retirement strategy charts must be
accompanied by a corresponding ledger illustration; ledger illustrations must
always include or be accompanied by comparable information that is based on
guaranteed cost of insurance rates and that presents a hypothetical gross rate
of return of 0%. Retirement illustrations will not be furnished with a
hypothetical gross rate of return in excess of 12%.     
 
  The hypothetical rates of return in ledger illustrations are illustrative
only and should not be interpreted as a representation of past or future
investment results. Policy values and benefits shown in the ledger
illustrations would be different if the gross annual investment rates of
return were different from the hypothetical rates portrayed, if premiums were
not paid when due, and loan interest was paid when due. Withdrawals or loans
may have an adverse effect on Policy benefits.
          
RISKS OF LIFE INSURANCE RETIREMENT PLANS     
   
  Using your Policy as a funding vehicle for a life insurance retirement plan
presents several risks, including the risk that if your Policy is
insufficiently funded in relation to the income stream from your Policy, your
Policy can lapse prematurely and result in significant income tax liability to
you in the year in which the lapse occurs. Other risks associated with
borrowing from your Policy also apply. Loans will be automatically repaid from
the gross death benefit at the death of the Insured, resulting in the
estimated payment to the Beneficiary of the net death benefit, which will be
less than the gross death benefit and may be less than the Face Amount. Upon
surrender or maturity, the loan will be automatically repaid, resulting in the
payment to you of the Net Surrender Value. Similarly, upon lapse, the loan
will be automatically repaid. The automatic repayment of the loan upon
maturity, lapse, or surrender will cause the recognition of taxable income to
the extent that Net Surrender Value plus the amount of the repaid loan exceeds
your basis in the Policy. Thus, under certain circumstances, maturity,
surrender, or lapse of your Policy could result in tax liability to you. In
addition, to reinstate a lapsed Policy, you would be required to make certain
payments as described under "Reinstatement," page 22. Thus, you should be
careful to fashion a retirement plan so that your Policy will not lapse
prematurely under various market scenarios as a result of withdrawals and
loans taken from your Policy.     
   
  Your Policy will lapse if your Accumulated Value less Policy Debt is
insufficient to cover the current monthly deduction on any Monthly Payment
Date, and a Grace Period expires without your making a sufficient payment. To
avoid lapse of your policy, it is important to fashion a payment stream that
does not leave your Policy with insufficient Accumulated Value. Determinations
as to the amount to withdraw or borrow each year warrant careful
consideration. Careful consideration should also be given to any assumptions
respecting the hypothetical rate of return, to the duration of withdrawals and
loans, and to the amount of Accumulated Value that should remain in your
Policy upon its maturity. Poor investment performance can contribute to the
risk that your Policy may lapse. In addition, the cost of insurance generally
increases with the Age of the Insured, which can further erode existing
Accumulated Value and contribute to the risk of lapse.     
 
                                      36
<PAGE>
 
   
  Further, interest on a Policy loan is due to Pacific Mutual for any Policy
Year on the Policy Anniversary. If this interest is not paid when due, it is
added to the amount of the outstanding Policy Debt, and interest will begin
accruing thereon from that date. This can have a compounding effect, and to
the extent that the outstanding loan balance exceeds your basis in the Policy,
the amounts attributable to interest due on the loans can add to your federal
(and possibly state) income tax liability.     
   
  You should consult with your financial advisers in designing a private
retirement plan that is suitable. Further, you should continue to monitor the
Accumulated Value net of loans remaining in a Policy to assure that it is
sufficiently funded to continue to support the desired income stream and so
that it will not lapse. In this regard, you should consult your periodic
statements to determine the amount of their remaining Accumulated Value minus
the outstanding loan balance. Illustrations showing the effect of charges
under the Policy upon existing Accumulated Value or the effect of future
withdrawals or loans upon the Policy's Accumulated Value and death benefit are
available from your agent. Consideration should be given periodically to
whether the Policy is sufficiently funded so that it will not lapse
prematurely.     
   
  Because of the potential risks associated with borrowing from a Policy, use
of the Policy in connection with a life insurance retirement plan may not be
suitable for all Policy Owners. These risks should be carefully considered
before borrowing from the Policy to provide an income stream, such as in the
case of a private retirement plan.     
 
DISTRIBUTION OF THE POLICY
   
  Pacific Mutual Distributors, Inc. ("PMD") is principal underwriter
(distributor) of the Policies. PMD is registered as a broker-dealer with the
SEC and is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers
("NASD"). Pacific Mutual pays PMD for acting as principal underwriter under a
Distribution Agreement. PMD is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pacific Mutual.
       
  Pacific Mutual and PMD have sales agreements with various broker-dealers
under which the Policy will be sold by registered representatives of the
broker-dealers. The registered representatives are required to be authorized
under applicable state regulations to sell variable life insurance. The
broker-dealers are required to be registered with the SEC and members of the
NASD. We pay compensation directly to broker-dealers for promotion and sales
of the Policy. The compensation payable to a broker-dealer for sales of the
Policy may vary with the Sales Agreement, but is not expected to exceed 90% of
expected first year premiums commissions, 4% of premiums paid through the 10th
Policy Year and 2% premiums paid thereafter. Broker-dealers may also receive
annual renewal compensation of up to .20% of Accumulated Value less Policy
Debt, depending upon the circumstances. The annual renewal compensation will
be computed monthly and payable starting on the fifth or the tenth Policy
Year, depending upon the circumstances. In addition, we may also pay override
payments, expense allowances, bonuses, wholesaler fees, and training
allowances. Registered representatives earn commissions from the broker-
dealers with whom they are affiliated for selling our Policies. Compensation
arrangements vary among broker-dealers. In addition, registered
representatives who meet specified production levels may qualify, under sales
incentive programs adopted by us, to receive non-cash compensation such as
expense-paid trips, expense-paid educational seminars and merchandise. We make
no separate deductions, other than as previously described, from premiums to
pay sales commissions or sales expenses.

  No officer or director listed above receives any compensation from the
Separate Account. No separately allocable compensation has been paid by us or
any of our affiliates to any person listed for services rendered to the
Account.     
 
STATE REGULATION
   
  We are subject to the laws of the state of California governing insurance
companies and to regulation by the Commissioner of Insurance of California. In
addition, we are subject to the insurance laws and regulations of the other
states and jurisdictions in which we are licensed or may become licensed to
operate. An annual statement in a prescribed form must be filed with the
Commissioner of Insurance of California and with regulatory authorities of
other states on or before March 1st in each year. This statement covers our
operations for the preceding year and our financial condition as of December
31st of that year. Our affairs are subject to review and examination at any
time by the Commissioner of Insurance or his agents, and subject to full
examination of our operations at periodic intervals.     
 
TELEPHONE TRANSFER AND LOAN PRIVILEGES
   
  You may request a transfer of Accumulated Value or a Policy Loan by
telephone if an Authorization for Telephone Requests ("Telephone
Authorization") has been properly completed, signed, and filed at our Home
Office. All or part of any telephone conversation with respect to transfer or
loan instructions may be recorded by us. Telephone instructions received by us
by 1:00 P.M. Pacific time, or the close of the New York Stock Exchange, if
earlier, on any Valuation Date will be processed as of the end of that
Valuation Date in accordance with your instructions (presuming that the Free-
Look Period has expired). We reserve the right to deny any telephone transfer
or loan request. If all telephone lines are busy (which might occur, for
example, during periods of substantial market fluctuations), you might not be
able to request transfers and loans by telephone and would have to submit
written requests.     
 
 
                                      40
<PAGE>
 
   
  We have established procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by
telephone are genuine. Under the procedures, any person requesting a transfer
by telephone must provide certain personal identification as requested by us,
and we will send a written confirmation of all transfers requested by
telephone within 7 days of the transfer. Upon your submission of a Telephone
Authorization, you authorize us to accept and act upon telephonic instructions
for transfers or loans involving your Policy, and agree that neither Pacific
Mutual, any of our affiliates, Pacific Select Fund, nor any of their
directors, trustees, officers, employees or agents, will be liable for any
loss, damages, cost, or expense (including attorney's fees) arising out of any
requests effected in accordance with the Telephone Authorization and believed
by us to be genuine, provided that we have complied with our procedures. As a
result of this policy on telephonic requests, you will bear the risk of loss
arising from the telephone transfer and loan privileges.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors
Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company


We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the
Pacific Select Exec Separate Account (comprised of the Money Market, Managed
Bond, Government Securities, High Yield Bond, Growth, Equity Income, Multi-
Strategy, International, Equity Index, and Growth LT Variable Accounts) as of
December 31, 1995 and the related statements of operations for the year then
ended and statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years ended
December 31, 1995 and 1994.  These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Separate Account's management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards 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.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of each of the respective Variable
Accounts constituting the Pacific Select Exec Separate Account as of 
December 31, 1995 and the results of their operations for the year then ended 
and the changes in their net assets for each of the two years then ended, in 
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                     PACIFIC SELECT EXEC SEPARATE ACCOUNT

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The Pacific Select Exec Separate Account (the "Separate Account") is
registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended, and is currently comprised of ten subaccounts called Variable
Accounts: the Money Market Variable Account, the Managed Bond Variable Account,
the Government Securities Variable Account, the High Yield Bond Variable
Account, the Growth Variable Account, the Equity Income Variable Account, the
Multi-Strategy Variable Account, the International Variable Account, the Equity
Index Variable Account, and the Growth LT Variable Account. The assets in each
Variable Account are invested in shares of the corresponding portfolios of
Pacific Select Fund (the "Fund"), each of which pursues different investment
objectives and policies.

     The Separate Account was established by Pacific Mutual Life Insurance
Company ("Pacific Mutual") on May 12, 1988 and commenced operations on 
November 22, 1988. Under applicable insurance law, the assets and liabilities of
the Separate Account are clearly identified and distinguished from the other
assets and liabilities of Pacific Mutual. The assets of the Separate Account
will not be charged with any liabilities arising out of any other business
conducted by Pacific Mutual, but the obligations of the Separate Account,
including benefits related to variable life insurance, are obligations of
Pacific Mutual.

     The Separate Account held by Pacific Mutual represents funds from 
individual flexible premium variable life policies. The assets of these accounts
are carried at market value.

     The preparation of the accompanying financial statements requires 
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported 
amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

  A. Valuation of Investments

     Investments in shares of the Fund are valued at the reported net asset
values of the respective portfolios.

  B. Security Transactions

     Transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on
sales of investments are determined on the basis of identified cost.

  C. Federal Income Taxes

     The operations of the Separate Account will be reported on the Federal
income tax return of Pacific Mutual, which is taxed as a life insurance company
under the provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986. Under current tax law, no
Federal income taxes are expected to be paid by Pacific Mutual with respect to
the operations of the Separate Account.

2. DIVIDENDS

     During 1995, the Fund has declared dividends for each portfolio. The
amounts accrued by the Separate Account for its share of the dividends were
reinvested in additional full and fractional shares of the related portfolio.

3. CHARGES AND EXPENSES

     With respect to variable life insurance policies funded by the Separate
Account, Pacific Mutual makes certain deductions from premiums for sales load
and state premium taxes before amounts are allocated to the Separate Account.
Pacific Mutual also makes certain deductions from the net assets of each
Variable Account for the mortality and expense risks Pacific Mutual assumes,
administrative expenses, cost of insurance, charges for optional benefits and
any sales and underwriting surrender charges. The operating expenses of the
Separate Account are paid by Pacific Mutual.

4. RELATED PARTY AGREEMENT

     Pacific Equities Network, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pacific Mutual, is
the principal underwriter of variable life insurance policies funded by
interests in the Separate Account, and is compensated by Pacific Mutual.

    INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
    ----------------------------
 
    Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company:
 
    We have audited the accompanying statements of financial position of
    Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company as of December 31, 1995 and 1994,
    and the related statements of operations and surplus, and of cash flow
    for the years then ended. 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 in accordance with generally accepted auditing
    standards. Those standards 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. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
    principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
    as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
    that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
    In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all
    material respects, the financial position of Pacific Mutual Life
    Insurance Company as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of
    its operations and its cash flow for the years then ended, in
    conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the
    Insurance Department of the State of California and with generally
    accepted accounting principles.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
    DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
    Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company ("Pacific Mutual") was established
    in 1868 and is organized under the laws of the State of California as a
    mutual life insurance company. Pacific Mutual conducts business in every
    state except New York.
 
    Pacific Mutual, including its subsidiaries and affiliates, has primary
    business segments which consist of life insurance, annuities, pension
    products, group employee benefits and investment management and advisory
    services. These primary business segments provide products for
    individuals and corporations and offer a range of investment products to
    institutions and pension plans.
 
    BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    Pacific Mutual's financial statements are prepared in accordance with
    accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Department
    of the State of California, which are currently considered generally
    accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for mutual life insurance
    companies. Prescribed statutory accounting practices include a variety of
    publications of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners
    ("NAIC"), as well as state laws, regulations, and general administrative
    rules. Permitted statutory accounting practices encompass all accounting
    practices not so prescribed. The financial statements of Pacific Mutual
    are not consolidated with those of its subsidiaries.
 
    The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued certain
    pronouncements effective for 1996 financial statements and thereafter
    that will no longer allow statutory financial statements of mutual life
    insurance companies to be described as being prepared in conformity with
    GAAP.
 
    Upon the effective date of these pronouncements, in order for their
    financial statements to be described as being prepared in accordance with
    GAAP, mutual life insurance companies and their insurance subsidiaries
    will be required to adopt all applicable authoritative GAAP
    pronouncements in any general purpose financial statements that they may
    issue. Pacific Mutual intends to issue 1996 general purpose financial
    statements reflecting the adoption of all applicable GAAP pronouncements.
 
    INVESTMENTS
 
    Bonds qualifying for amortization are carried at amortized cost; all
    other bonds are carried at prescribed values. Preferred stocks are
    principally stated at amortized cost. Unaffiliated common stocks are
    carried at market value. Investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries are
    reported on the equity method of accounting, except for Pacific
    Corinthian Life Insurance Company ("PCL") (Note 2) which is carried at
    cost.
 
    Mortgage loans and policy loans are stated at unpaid principal balances.
    Real estate is valued at the lower of depreciated cost or market, less
    related mortgage debt. Real estate is depreciated using the straight-line
    method over 30 years.
 
    Short-term investments generally mature within a year and are carried at
    amortized cost which approximates estimated fair value.
 
    The Asset Valuation Reserve ("AVR") is computed in accordance with a
    prescribed formula and is designed to stabilize surplus against valuation
    and credit-related losses for certain invested assets. Changes to the AVR
    are reported as direct additions or deductions from surplus. The Interest
    Maintenance Reserve ("IMR"), included in other liabilities on the
    accompanying statements of financial position, results in the deferral of
    after-tax realized capital gains and losses attributable to interest rate
    fluctuations on fixed income investments. These capital gains and losses
    are amortized into investment income over the remaining life of the
    investment sold. The IMR was $25.3 million and $13.1 million as of
    December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
 
    Net realized capital gains and losses are determined on the specific
    identification method and are presented net of federal capital gains tax
    of $18.5 million and $(2.3) million and transfers to the IMR of $22.6
    million and $(.4) million for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994,
    respectively.
 
    Derivatives which qualify for hedge accounting are valued consistently
    with the hedged items. Realized hedged gains and losses on fixed income
    contracts are deferred and amortized over the average life of the related
    hedged assets or insurance liabilities. Realized gains and losses on
    equity securities, which are marked to market, are recognized
    immediately. Derivatives which do not qualify for hedge accounting are
    valued at market value through surplus while still held and when realized
    through income.
 
    On November 15, 1994, Pacific Financial Asset Management Corporation
    ("PFAMCo"), a wholly-owned, subsidiary of Pacific Mutual, and five of its
    subsidiaries (Pacific Investment Management Company and subsidiaries,
    Parametric Portfolio Associates, Inc., Cadence Capital Management
    Corporation, NFJ Investment Group, Inc. and Blairlogie Capital Management
    Limited) entered into an agreement and plan of consolidation with Thomson
    Advisory Group L.P., a Delaware limited partnership with publicly traded
    units, to merge into a newly capitalized partnership named PIMCO Advisors
    L.P. Collectively, PFAMCo and various of its subsidiaries beneficially
    own approximately 42% of the outstanding general and limited partner
    units of PIMCO Advisors L.P. as of December 31, 1995 and 1994. Net cash
    distributions received on these units are recorded as income as permitted
    by the Insurance Department of the State of California.
 
    On December 21, 1995, Pacific Mutual completed a subsidiary
    reorganization in which PFAMCo became a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary
    of Pacific Mutual. Prior to that PFAMCo was a wholly-owned second-tier
    subsidiary of Pacific Mutual. The intermediate company, Pacific Financial
    Holding Company ("PFHC") and certain of its assets and liabilities were
    merged into PFAMCo in connection with this reorganization. The remaining
    assets were merged into Pacific Mutual which consisted of investments in
    subsidiaries as follows: Pacific Equities Network, PM Group Life
    Insurance Company and PFAMCo.
 
    POLICY RESERVES AND DEPOSIT FUNDS
 
    Life insurance reserves are valued using the net level premium method,
    the Commissioners' Reserve Valuation Method, or other modified reserve
    methods.
 
    Reserves for individual annuities are maintained principally on the
    Commissioners' Annuity Reserve Valuation Method. Group annuity contract
    reserves are valued using the net single premium method.
 
    The liability for deposit funds, including guaranteed interest contracts,
    is based primarily upon and is not less than the policyowners' equity in
    their deposit accounts, including credited interest.
 
    REVENUES AND EXPENSES
 
    Premiums are recognized as income over the premium paying period.
    Deposits made in connection with annuity contracts are recognized as
    revenue when received. Investment income is recorded as earned.
 
    Expenses, including policy acquisition costs, such as commissions, and
    Federal income taxes are charged to operations as incurred.
 
    DIVIDENDS
 
    Dividends are provided based on dividend formulas approved by the Board
    of Directors and reviewed for reasonableness and equitable treatment of
    policyowners by an independent consulting actuary.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
 
    FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
 
    Pacific Mutual is taxed as a life insurance company for Federal income
    tax purposes. Pacific Mutual's income tax return is consolidated with all
    its includable domestic subsidiaries except PCL. The amount of Federal
    income tax expense includes an equity tax calculated by a prescribed
    formula that incorporates a differential earnings rate between stock and
    mutual life insurance companies. Under prescribed statutory accounting
    practices, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recorded. The
    difference between the effective tax rate and the statutory tax rate of
    35% for 1995 and 1994 is primarily due to certain policy acquisition
    costs being deferred and amortized over a ten-year period for tax
    purposes, reserve differences, non-taxable investment income and the
    equity tax.
 
    OTHER SURPLUS TRANSACTIONS
 
    Other surplus transactions consist primarily of unrealized capital gains
    and losses, changes in nonadmitted assets, and changes in the AVR.
 
    SEPARATE ACCOUNTS
 
    Separate account assets are recorded at market value and the related
    liabilities represent segregated contract owner funds maintained in
    accounts with individual investment objectives. The investment results of
    separate account assets generally pass through to separate account policy
    owners and contract owners.
 
    FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
    The estimated fair value of financial instruments disclosed in Notes 3
    and 4 have been determined using available market information and
    appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is
    required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value.
    Accordingly, the estimates presented may not be indicative of the amounts
    Pacific Mutual could realize in a current market exchange. The use of
    different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a
    significant effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
 
    USE OF ESTIMATES
 
    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
    practices prescribed or permitted by regulatory authorities and generally
    accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
    assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 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
    from those estimates.
 
    RECLASSIFICATIONS
 
    Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1995
    financial statement presentation.
 
2.  REHABILITATION OF FIRST CAPITAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
 
    Pursuant to a five-year rehabilitation agreement approved by a California
    Superior Court and the Insurance Department of the State of California in
    July 1992, Pacific Mutual, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, PCL, will
    facilitate the rehabilitation of First Capital Life Insurance Company
    ("FCL"). In accordance with the rehabilitation agreement, insurance
    policies of FCL were restructured and assumed by PCL on December 31,
    1992.
 
    The rehabilitation agreement provides for the holders of restructured
    policies to share in a substantial percentage of the unallocated surplus
    of PCL at the end of the rehabilitation period. Policyholders have the
    option to surrender their restructured policies with reduced benefits
    during this five-year period. During the rehabilitation

2.  REHABILITATION OF FIRST CAPITAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY (CONTINUED)

    plan period, PCL is prohibited from issuing new insurance policies. At
    the end of the rehabilitation period, PCL will merge into Pacific Mutual,
    with Pacific Mutual as the surviving entity. Substantially all of the
    assets and certain of the liabilities of FCL were assumed by PCL on
    December 31, 1992, pursuant to an assumption reinsurance agreement and
    asset purchase agreement.
 
    In accordance with the rehabilitation agreement, PCL was capitalized by a
    cash contribution of $8.3 million from Pacific Mutual and a $45 million
    certificate of contribution provided by a wholly-owned subsidiary of
    Pacific Mutual for a total of $53.3 million initial capitalization.
 
    In the event PCL is unable to pay contract benefits, Pacific Mutual is
    obligated to contribute funds to pay those benefits in accordance with
    the rehabilitation agreement.
 
3.  INVESTMENTS IN DEBT SECURITIES
 
    The statement value, gross unrealized gains and losses and estimated fair
    value of bonds and redeemable preferred stocks ("debt securities"),
    including short-term investments, are shown below. The estimated fair
    value of publicly traded securities was based on quoted market prices.
    For securities not actively traded, estimated fair values were provided
    by independent pricing services specializing in "matrix pricing" and
    modeling techniques. Pacific Mutual also estimates certain fair values
    based on interest rates, credit quality and average maturity or from
    securities with comparable trading characteristics.

4.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
    The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair
    values of these financial instruments as of December 31, 1995 and 1994:
 
    PREFERRED AND COMMON STOCKS
 
    The estimated fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer
    quotes.
 
    MORTGAGE LOANS
 
    The estimated fair value of the mortgage loan portfolio is determined by
    discounting the estimated future cash flows, using a year-end market rate
    which is applicable to the yield, credit quality and average maturity of
    the composite portfolio.
 
    POLICY LOANS
 
    The statement value of policy loans is a reasonable estimate of their
    fair value.
 
    GUARANTEED INTEREST CONTRACTS AND DEPOSIT LIABILITIES
 
    The estimated fair values of fixed-maturity guaranteed interest contracts
    are estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar
    remaining maturities. The estimated fair values of deposit liabilities
    with no defined maturities are the amounts payable on demand.
 
    Pacific Mutual has issued PRO GIC and Diversifier GIC contracts to plan
    sponsors totaling $914 million as of December 31, 1995, pursuant to the
    terms of which the plan sponsor retains direct ownership and control of
    the assets related to these contracts. Pacific Mutual agrees to provide
    benefit responsiveness in the event that plan benefit requests exceed
    plan cash flows. In return for this guarantee, Pacific Mutual receives a
    fee which varies by contract. Pacific Mutual sets the investment
    guidelines to provide for appropriate credit quality and cash flow
    matching.
 
    ANNUITY LIABILITIES
 
    The fair value of annuity liabilities approximates statement value and
    primarily includes policyholder deposits and accumulated credited
    interest.
 
    DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
    Pacific Mutual utilizes certain derivative financial instruments to
    diversify its business risk and to minimize its exposure to fluctuations
    in market prices, interest rates, or basis risk. Pacific Mutual has also
    set aside a corporate total return portfolio utilizing derivative
    financial instruments. These instruments include interest rate and
    currency swaps, asset swaps, credit derivatives, forwards, options held,
    options written, and futures contracts, and involve elements of credit
    risk and market risk in excess of amounts recognized in the accompanying
    financial statements. The notional amounts of those instruments reflect
    the extent of involvement in those various types of financial
    instruments. The estimated fair values of these instruments are based on
    market or dealer quotes. Pacific Mutual determines, on an individual
    counterparty basis, the need for collateral or other security to support
    financial instruments with off-balance sheet credit risks.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
4.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
    Options and Floors
 
    Pacific Mutual uses options and floors to hedge against fluctuations in
    interest rates and in its corporate total return portfolio. Cash
    requirements on options held are limited to the premium paid by Pacific
    Mutual at acquisition. Pacific Mutual uses written options on a limited
    basis consisting primarily of covered calls. Gains and losses on covered
    calls are offset by gains and losses on the underlying position. Options
    and floors held are reported as assets and options written are reported
    as liabilities. As of December 31, 1995, the notional amount of options
    held and options written approximated $1.3 billion and $30 million,
    respectively. As of December 31, 1994, the notional amount of options
    held and options written approximated $1.5 billion and $42 million,
    respectively. Option contracts mature during 1996 through 2007.
 
    Interest Rate Swap Contracts
 
    Pacific Mutual has entered into interest rate swap contracts to reduce
    the impact of changes in interest rates on its variable short-term and
    long-term investments. These contracts effectively change the interest
    rate exposure on variable rate notes to fixed rates which range from 1.9%
    to 8.9% as of December 31, 1995, and from 1.9% to 8.6% as of December 31,
    1994. Interest rate swap contracts mature during 1996 through 2013. As of
    December 31, 1995 and 1994, interest rate swap contracts outstanding with
    financial institutions had a total notional amount of $656 million and
    $411 million, respectively.
 
    Asset Swap Contracts
 
    Pacific Mutual has entered into an asset swap contract to reduce interest
    rate risk by shortening both the duration and maturity of one of its
    fixed rate investments. The asset swap contract matures during 1998. As
    of December 31, 1995, the asset swap contract had a notional amount of
    $10 million.
 
    Credit Derivatives
 
    Pacific Mutual uses credit derivatives to take advantage of market
    opportunities. As of December 31, 1995 and 1994, the notional amount of
    credit derivatives outstanding approximated $90 million and $66 million,
    respectively. Credit derivatives mature during 1996 through 2000.
 
    Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
 
    Pacific Mutual enters into foreign currency exchange contracts that are
    used to hedge against fluctuations in foreign currency-denominated assets
    and related income. Gains and losses on such agreements offset currency
    gains and losses on the related assets. As of December 31, 1995 and 1994,
    the notional amount of foreign currency exchange contracts approximated
    $15 million and $35 million, respectively. Foreign currency exchange
    contracts expire during 1998 and 1999.
 
    Future Contracts
 
    Pacific Mutual uses exchange-traded futures contracts for asset and
    liability management of fixed maturity securities and insurance
    liabilities and for hedging market fluctuations on equity securities.
    Price changes on futures are settled daily through the daily margin cash
    flows. As of December 31, 1995 and 1994, the notional amounts of futures
    contracts were $340 million and $163 million, respectively. The notional
    amounts of the contracts do not represent future cash requirements, as
    Pacific Mutual intends to close out open positions prior to expiration.

4.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
    CONTRIBUTION CERTIFICATES
 
    The estimated fair value of contribution certificates is based on market
    quotes.
 
5.  CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
 
    Pacific Mutual manages its investments to limit credit risk by
    diversifying its portfolio among various security types and industry
    sectors. The credit risk of financial instruments is controlled through
    credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. Real estate and
    mortgage loan investments are diversified by geographic location and
    property type. Management believes that significant concentrations of
    credit risk do not exist.
 
    Pacific Mutual is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance
    by the other parties to the interest rate swaps contracts and other
    derivative securities. However, Pacific Mutual does not anticipate
    nonperformance by the counterparties.
 
6.  UNCONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES
 
    Pacific Mutual's subsidiary operations primarily include other life and
    health insurance and investment management and advisory services. As of
    December 31, 1995 and 1994, subsidiary assets were $4.5 billion and
    liabilities were $4.3 billion as of December 31, 1995 and $4.2 billion as
    of December 31, 1994.
 
    Revenue and net income, including PCL, were $908 million and $63 million
    for the year ended December 31, 1995, and $1.1 billion and $75 million
    for the year ended December 31, 1994. Dividends from subsidiaries totaled
    $64.7 million and $2 million for the years ended December 31, 1995 and
    1994, respectively. Earnings of subsidiaries, excluding PCL, and
    excluding capital gains, are included in net investment income.
 
7.  BORROWINGS
 
    Pacific Mutual borrows for short-term needs by issuing commercial paper.
    Approximately $50 million was outstanding as of December 31, 1994,
    bearing an interest rate of 5.86%, and was repaid in January, 1995. There
    were no borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 1995.
 
    In addition, Pacific Mutual had available a revolving credit facility
    totaling approximately $250 million as of December 31, 1995 and 1994.
    There were no borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 1995 and 1994.
 
8.  CONTRIBUTION CERTIFICATES
 
    Pacific Mutual has $150 million of Contribution Certificates (the
    "Certificates"), also referred to as Surplus Notes, outstanding at an
    interest rate of 7.9% maturing on December 30, 2023. Interest is payable
    semiannually on June 30 and December 30. The Certificates may not be
    redeemed at the option of Pacific Mutual or any holder of the
    Certificates. The Certificates are unsecured and subordinated to all
    present and future senior indebtedness and policy claims of Pacific
    Mutual. Each payment of interest on and the payment of principal of the
    Certificates may be made only out of Pacific Mutual's surplus and with
    the prior approval of the Insurance Commissioner of the State of
    California. In accordance with accounting practices prescribed or
    permitted by the Insurance Department of the State of California, the
    Certificates are not part of the liabilities of Pacific Mutual and are
    included in surplus.

9.  REINSURANCE

    Pacific Mutual has reinsurance agreements with other insurance companies
    for the purpose of diversifying risk and limiting exposure on larger
    risks. For the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, individual life
    and annuity premiums assumed were $16 million and $20 million and
    premiums ceded were $339 million and $363 million, respectively. Amounts
    recoverable from reinsurers for individual life and annuities include
    reinsured and paid claims of $8 million and $13 million as of December
    31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Policy benefits payable are net of
    reinsurance recoveries of $8 million and $4 million at December 31, 1995
    and 1994, respectively.
 
    Pacific Mutual also reinsures substantially all of its group life and
    health business with a subsidiary insurance company. Premiums of $72
    million and $90 million, and benefits of $53 million and $70 million were
    ceded during the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
 
    Amounts payable to the subsidiary under this agreement were $6 million
    and $8 million as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
 
    To the extent that the assuming companies become unable to meet their
    obligations under these treaties, Pacific Mutual remains contingently
    liable. However, Pacific Mutual does not anticipate nonperformance by
    these assuming companies.
 
10. PENSION PLAN AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
 
    PENSION PLAN
 
    Pacific Mutual maintains a defined benefit pension plan covering eligible
    employees and agents. In 1995, Pacific Mutual accrued $2.5 million in
    pension expense that will be funded in 1996 based on the latest actuarial
    valuation report. No expense or contributions were made during 1994
    because of the funded status of the plans and related income tax
    considerations. Accumulated benefits and net assets available for
    benefits as of the latest valuation dates (January 1, 1995 and April 1,
    1994) are as follows:

    The above present values were determined using an assumed discount rate
    of 8.5% in 1995 and 1994.
 
    POSTRETIREMENT HEALTHCARE AND LIFE INSURANCE PLANS
 
    Pacific Mutual sponsors a defined benefit health care plan and a defined
    benefit life insurance plan ("The Plans") that provide postretirement
    benefits for all eligible retirees and their dependents. Generally,
    qualified employees may become eligible for these benefits if they reach
    normal retirement age, have been covered under Pacific Mutual's policy as
    an active employee for a minimum continuous period prior to the date
    retired, and have an employment date before January 1, 1990. The Plans
    contain cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance and
    require retirees to make contributions which can be adjusted annually.

10. PENSION PLAN AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS (CONTINUED)

    commitment to qualified employees who retire after April 1, 1994 is
    limited to specific dollar amounts. Pacific Mutual reserves the right to
    modify or terminate The Plans at any time. As in the past, the general
    policy is to fund these benefits on a pay-as-you-go basis. The amount of
    benefits paid under The Plans for the years ended December 31, 1995 and
    1994 was approximately $1.7 million for both years.
 
    Pacific Mutual utilizes the accrual method of accounting for the costs of
    The Plans as prescribed by the Insurance Department of the State of
    California and amortizes its transition obligation of $26.7 million over
    twenty years.
 
    Components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost are as follows (In

10. PENSION PLAN AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS (CONTINUED)

    rate assumptions were increased by 1%, the accumulated postretirement
    benefit obligation as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 would be increased by
    10.9% and 11.2%, respectively. The effect of this change would increase
    the aggregate of the service, interest and amortization cost components
    of the net periodic benefit cost by 11.4% and 13.6%, respectively.
 
    The discount rate used in determining the accumulated postretirement
    benefit obligation is 7% and 8% for 1995 and 1994, respectively.

12. LITIGATION
 
    Pacific Mutual and its subsidiaries are respondents in a number of legal
    proceedings, some of which involve extra-contractual damages. In the
    opinion of management, the outcome of these proceedings is not likely to
    have a material adverse effect on the financial position of Pacific
    Mutual.

                                 ILLUSTRATIONS
 
  The following tables illustrate how the death benefits, Accumulated Values
and Net Cash Surrender Values of a hypothetical policy may vary over an
extended period of time assuming hypothetical rates of return equivalent to
constant gross annual rates of 0%, 6% and 12%.
 
  The policies illustrated include the following:
 
    1. Age 40, Option A, $10,000 annual premium, Current Cost of Insurance
  Rates.
 
    2. Age 40, Option A, $10,000 annual premium, Guaranteed Cost of Insurance
  Rates.
 
    3. Age 40, Option B, $10,000 annual premium, Current Cost of Insurance
  Rates.
 
    4. Age 40, Option B, $10,000 annual premium, Guaranteed Cost of Insurance
  Rates.
 
  The values would be different from those shown if the gross annual
investment rates of return averaged 0%, 6% or 12% over a period of years, but
also fluctuated above or below those averages for individual policy years.
 
  The second column of each table, labeled "Total Premiums Paid Plus Interest
at 5%," shows the amount which would accumulate if an amount equal to the
annual premium (after taxes) were invested to earn interest at 5% compounded
annually. All premium payments are illustrated as if they were made at the
beginning of the year. These illustrations assume that no Policy loans have
been made.
   
  The amounts shown for the death benefits, Accumulated Values and Net Cash
Surrender Values reflect the fact that the net investment return on the
Variable Accounts is lower than the gross investment return on the assets as a
result of charges levied against the Variable Accounts. These values also take
into account the premium loads, the administrative charges and the mortality
and expense risk charges. The daily investment advisory fee is assumed to be
equivalent to an annual weighted rate of 0.64% of the aggregate average daily
net assets of the Fund. This hypothetical rate is representative of the
weighted average investment advisory fee applicable to the twelve Portfolios
of the Fund available as options under the Policy. The amounts shown would
differ if unisex rates were used or if the Insureds were females and female
rates were used. On those illustrations assuming current rates, the amounts
would also differ if either Insured were a smoker and smoker rates were used.
       
  The tables also reflect other expenses of the Fund at the weighted rate of
0.23% of the average daily net assets of a Portfolio, which amounts to 0.87%
of the average daily net assets of a Portfolio including the investment
advisory fee, and any foreign taxes. For the year ended December 31, 1995, the
total expenses of each Portfolio were the following percentages of the average
daily net assets of the Portfolios: 0.53% for the Money Market Portfolio;
0.83% for the Equity Income Portfolio; 0.84% for the Multi-Strategy Portfolio;
1.42% for the International Portfolio; 0.76% for the Managed Bond Portfolio;
0.82% for the Government Securities Portfolio; 0.77% for the High Yield Bond
Portfolio; 0.79% for the Growth Portfolio; 0.94% for the Growth LT Portfolio;
and 0.42% for the Equity Index Portfolio. For Aggressive Equity and Emerging
Markets Portfolios, which had not commenced operations as of December 31,
1995, it is estimated that operating expenses, including advisory fees and
foreign taxes, after the expense limitation described below, will be 1.04% and
1.58% of average daily net assets, respectively. We have agreed, until at
least December 31, 1997, to waive our fees or otherwise reimburse each
Portfolio for its operating expenses to the extent that such expenses,
exclusive of advisory fees, additional custodial charges associated with
holding foreign securities, foreign taxes on dividends, interest and gains,
and extraordinary expenses, exceed 0.25% of any Portfolio's average daily net
assets. We began this expense reimbursement policy in April 1989. Such
expenses of the Portfolios for the year ending December 31, 1995 did not
exceed the 0.25% expense caps. In the absence of this policy, it is estimated
that the Emerging Markets Portfolio's total expenses, including advisory fees
and foreign taxes for the Fund's current year ending December 31, 1996 will be
1.63%. There can be no assurance that the expense reimbursement arrangement
will continue after December 31, 1997, and any unreimbursed expenses would be
reflected in the Policy Owner's Accumulated Value and in some instances, the
death benefit.

  After deduction of the charges and Fund expenses described above, the
illustrated gross annual investment rates of return of 0%, 6%, and 12%
correspond to approximate net annual rates of return of -0.90%, 5.05%, and
10.99%. The hypothetical values shown in the tables do not reflect any charges
against the Variable Accounts for income taxes that may be attributable to the
Variable Accounts in the future, since we are not currently making these
charges.     
   
  We will furnish upon request a comparable illustration reflecting the
proposed Insured's Age, underwriting class, Face Amount, death benefit and
premium amounts requested. In addition, upon request, illustrations will be
furnished reflecting allocation of premiums to specified Variable Accounts.
Such illustrations will reflect the expenses of the Portfolio of the Fund in
which the Variable Account invests. Illustrations that use a hypothetical
gross rate of return in excess of 12% are available to certain large
institutional investors upon request.

Account, as requested in the attached May 11, 1988 memo from Ms. Ledger and Mr.
Hezzelwood.

General Management has approved the development of a second variable life
product, Pacific Select Exec Individual Flexible Premium Life Insurance Policy.
Amounts received by Pacific Mutual in connection with the sale of this new
product will be allocated to the Pacific Select Exec Separate Account, and among
its eight subaccounts, at the policyowners' direction.

On November 20, 1986, the Board of Directors of Pacific Mutual adopted a
resolution authorizing any officer of the corporation to take whatever action is
necessary to establish and maintain Separate Accounts which may be required in
connection with variable life insurance policies.  Outside counsel for our
variable life products recommends that this authorization for the new Separate
Account be obtained from the Chief Executive Officer of Pacific Mutual.

SUBJECT  Pacific Select Exec Separate Account Variable Life Products

RECOMMENDATION:

That you authorize that, in addition to the Pacific Select Exec Flexible Premium
Variable Life Insurance policy, the Pacific Select Exec Separate Account may be
used in connection with additional variable life insurance products that Pacific
Mutual may develop and establish.

WHY RECOMMENDATION IS REQUESTED:

Documentation of this authorization must accompany variable life insurance
product registration filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission
and the California Insurance Department.

BACKGROUND:

On November 20, 1986 and on November 22, 1989, the Board of Pacific Mutual Life
Insurance Company adopted resolutions authorizing any Officer of the Corporation
to take whatever action necessary to establish and maintain Separate Accounts
and to register, file or qualify variable life insurance policies for sale.  The
Pacific Select Exec Separate Account was established pursuant to the November
20, 1986 resolution and a Memorandum dated May 12, 1988.

The original authorization for the Pacific Select Exec Separate Account referred
specifically to the Pacific Select Exec Flexible Premium Variable Life Insurance
product, however, Pacific Mutual intends to develop and establish additional
variable life insurance products that may utilize the Pacific Select Exec
Separate Account.

OTHERS CONSULTED:

Mr. Lynn Miller and Ms. Sharon Cheever concur in this recommendation.

On behalf of Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company, the Pacific Select Exec
Separate Account is hereby authorized to be used in connection with additional
variable life insurance products that Pacific Mutual may develop and establish.

                 Distribution Agreement between Pacific Mutual
              Life Insurance Company and Pacific Equities Network
<PAGE>
 
                             DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT
                             ----------------------


AGREEMENT made this 7th day of September, 1988, by and between Pacific Mutual
Life Insurance Company, a California company, ("Pacific Mutual") on its own
behalf and on behalf of the Pacific Select Exec Separate Account ("Separate
Account"), and Pacific Equities Network, a California corporation, ("PEN").

WHEREAS, Pacific Mutual has established and maintains the Separate Account, a
separate investment account, for the purpose of selling variable life contracts
("Contracts") to commence after the effectiveness of the Registration Statement
relating thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on form S-6
pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), through
PEN, acting as general agent of Pacific Mutual;

WHEREAS, the Separate Account is registered as a unit investment trust under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 ("the 1940 Act");

WHEREAS, Pacific Mutual desires to retain PEN as the Distributor and Principal
Underwriter to provide for the sale and distribution to the public of the
Contracts issued by Pacific Mutual and funded by interests in the General
Account of Pacific Mutual and in the Separate Account and PEN is willing to
render such services:

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
hereinafter set forth, the parties agree as follows:

1.  Principal Underwriter.  Pacific Mutual hereby appoints PEN, during the term
    ---------------------                                                      
of this Agreement, subject to the registration requirements of the 1933 Act and
the 1940 Act and the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act, to be the
Distributor and Principal Underwriter for the sale of Contracts to the public in
each state and other jurisdictions in which the Contracts may be lawfully sold.
Pacific Mutual also appoints PEN as its independent General Agent for sale of
its Contracts (including any riders which Pacific Mutual may make available in
connection therewith or any contracts for which the Contracts may be exchanged
or converted) and for sale of such other insurance contracts or annuity
contracts as Pacific Mutual may, from time to time, authorize in writing by
amendment thereto.  PEN shall offer the Contracts for sale and distribution at
premium rates set by Pacific Mutual.

2.  Selling Agreements.  PEN is hereby authorized to enter into separate written
    ------------------                                                          
agreements, on such terms and conditions as PEN determines are not inconsistent
with this Agreement, with such organizations which agree to participate as a
general agent and/or broker-dealer in the distribution of the Contracts and to
use their best efforts to solicit applications for Contracts.  Any such broker-
dealer (hereinafter "Broker") shall be both registered as a broker-dealer under
the Securities Exchange Act and a member of the NASD.  PEN shall be responsible
for ensuring that Broker and its agents or representatives and general agent and
its sub-agents soliciting applications for Contracts shall be duly and
appropriately licensed, registered and otherwise qualified for the sale of the
Contracts (and the riders and other contracts offered in connection therewith)
under the insurance
<PAGE>
 
laws and any applicable blue sky laws of each state or other jurisdiction in
which such policies may be lawfully sold and in which Pacific Mutual is licensed
to sell such Contracts.  Pacific Mutual shall undertake to appoint Broker's
qualified agents or representatives and general agent's sub-agents as life
insurance agents of Pacific Mutual, provided that Pacific Mutual reserves the
right to refuse to appoint any proposed representative, agent, or sub-agent, or
once appointed, to terminate such appointment.  PEN shall be responsible for
ensuring that Broker and general agent supervise its agents, representatives, or
sub-agents.

PEN is also authorized to enter into separate written agreements, on such terms
and conditions as PEN determines are not inconsistent with this Agreement, with
such organizations ("wholesalers") that agree to participate in the distribution
of the Contracts and to use their best efforts to solicit Brokers and general
agents that, in turn, will solicit applications of the Contracts.

3.  Life Insurance Agents.  Pacific Mutual shall be responsible for ensuring
    ---------------------                                                   
that Broker and its agents or representatives and general agent and its sub-
agents meet all qualifications and hold any licenses or authorizations that may
be required for the solicitation or sale of the Contracts under the insurance
laws of the applicable jurisdictions.

4.  Suitability.  Pacific Mutual desires to ensure that Contracts will be sold
    -----------                                                               
to purchasers for whom the Contract will be suitable.  PEN shall take reasonable
steps to ensure that the various representatives of Broker and sub-agents of
general agents shall not make recommendations to an applicant to purchase a
Contract in the absence of reasonable grounds to believe the purchase of the
Contract is suitable for such applicant.  While not limited to the following, a
determination of suitability shall be based on information furnished to a
representative or sub-agent after reasonable inquiry of such applicant
concerning the applicant's other security holdings, insurance and investment
objectives, financial situation and needs, and the likelihood that the applicant
will continue to make any premium payments contemplated by the Contracts and
will keep the Policy in force for a sufficient period of time so that Pacific
Mutual's acquisition costs are amortized over a reasonable period of time.

5.  Conformity With Registration Statement and Approved Sales Materials.  In
    -------------------------------------------------------------------     
performing its duties as Distributor, PEN will act in conformity with the
Prospectus and with the instructions and directions of Pacific Mutual, the
requirements of the 1933 Act, the 1940 Act, the Securities Exchange Act, and all
other applicable federal and state laws and regulations.  PEN shall not give any
information nor make any representations, concerning any aspect of the Contract
or of Pacific Mutual's operations to any persons or entity unless such
information or representations are contained in the Registration Statement and
the pertinent prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or
are contained in sales or promotional literature approved by Pacific Mutual.
PEN will not use and will take reasonable steps to ensure Broker will not use
any sales promotion material and advertising which has not been previously
approved by Pacific Mutual.

6.  Expenses.  During the term of this Agreement, PEN will bear all of its
    --------                                                              
expenses in complying with this Agreement, including the following expenses:

    (a)  costs of sales presentations, mailings, sales promotion materials,
    advertising, and any
<PAGE>
 
    other marketing efforts by PEN in connection with the distribution or sale
    of the contracts; and

    (b) any compensation paid to employees of PEN and to wholesalers, Brokers
    and general agents in connection with the distribution or sale of the
    Contracts.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, it is understood and
agreed that Pacific Mutual shall at all times retain the ultimate responsibility
for and control of all functions performed pursuant to this Agreement, and for
marketing the Contract, and reserves the right to direct, approve or disapprove
any action hereunder taken on its behalf by PEN.

7.  Applications.  Completed applications for Contracts solicited by such Broker
    ------------                                                                
through its agents or representatives or by general agent through its sub-agents
shall be transmitted directly to Pacific Mutual.  All payments under the
Contracts shall be made by check to Pacific Mutual or by other method acceptable
to Pacific Mutual, and if received by PEN, shall be held at all times in a
fiduciary capacity and remitted promptly to Pacific Mutual.  All such payments
will be the property of Pacific Mutual.  Pacific Mutual has the sole authority
to approve or reject such applications or payments and maintains ultimate
responsibility for underwriting.  Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, Pacific Mutual retains the ultimate right to control the sale
of the Contracts and to appoint and discharge life insurance agents of Pacific
Mutual.

8.  Standard of Care.  PEN shall be responsible for exercising reasonable care
    ----------------                                                          
in carrying out the provisions of this Agreement.

9.  Reports.  PEN shall be responsible for maintaining the records of Broker and
    -------

it by applicable laws and regulations.  The books, accounts and records of
Pacific Mutual, the Separate Account and PEN shall be maintained so as to
clearly and accurately disclose the nature and details of the transactions,
including such accounting information as necessary to support the reasonableness
of the amounts to be paid by Pacific Mutual hereunder.

11.  Compensation.  For the services rendered and product development in the
     ------------                                                           
initial sales efforts and continuing obligations under this Agreement, Pacific
Mutual shall pay PEN in the amounts set forth in Schedule A, which schedule is
incorporated herein.  Pacific Mutual shall arrange for the payment of
commissions, through PEN, to those Brokers and general agents that sell
Contracts under agreements entered into pursuant to Section 2, hereof, and to
wholesalers that solicit brokers and general agents to sell Contracts under
agreements entered into pursuant to Section 2, hereof, in amounts as may be

12.  Investigation and Proceedings.  PEN and Pacific Mutual agree to cooperate

fully in any
<PAGE>
 
insurance regulatory investigation or proceeding or judicial proceeding arising
in connection with the Contracts distributed under this Agreement.  PEN further
agrees to furnish regulatory authorities with any information or reports in
connection with such services which may be requested in order to ascertain
whether the operations of Pacific Mutual and the Separate Account are being
conducted in a manner consistent with applicable laws and regulations.  PEN and
Pacific Mutual further agree to cooperate fully in any securities regulatory
investigation or proceeding with respect to Pacific Mutual, PEN, their
affiliates and their agents or representatives to the extent that such
investigation or proceeding is in connection with Contracts distributed under
this Agreement.  Without limiting the foregoing:

    (a) PEN will be notified promptly of any customer complaint or notice of any
    regulatory investigation or proceeding or judicial proceeding received by
    Pacific Mutual with respect to PEN or any agent, representative, or sub-
    agent of a Broker or general agent or which may affect Pacific Mutual's
    issuance of any Contract sold under this Agreement; and

    (b) PEN will promptly notify Pacific Mutual of any customer complaint or
    notice of any regulatory investigation or proceeding received by PEN or its
    affiliates with respect to PEN or any agent, representative, or sub-agent of
    a Broker or general agent in connection with any Contract distributed under
    this Agreement or any activity in connection with any such Contract.

In the case of a meritorious customer complaint, PEN and Pacific Mutual will
cooperate in investigating such complaint and any response will be sent to the
other party to this Agreement for approval not less than five business days
prior to its being sent to the customer or regulatory authority, except that if
a more prompt response is required, the proposed response shall be communicated
by telephone or telegraph.

13.  Indemnification.  Pacific Mutual hereby agrees to indemnify and hold
     ---------------                                                     
harmless PEN and its officers and directors, and employees for any expenses
(including legal expenses), losses, claims, damages, or liabilities incurred by
reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or representation of a material
fact or any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be
stated to make other statements not misleading, if made in reliance on any
prospectus, registration statement, post-effective amendment thereof, or sales
materials supplied or approved by Pacific Mutual or the Separate Account.
Pacific Mutual shall reimburse each such person for any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such loss,
liability, damage, or claim.  However, in no case shall Pacific Mutual be
required to indemnify for any expenses, losses, claims, damages, or liabilities
which have resulted from the willful misfeasance, bad faith, negligence,
misconduct, or wrongful act of PEN.

PEN hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Pacific Mutual, its officers,
directors, and employees, and the Separate Account for any expenses, losses,
claims, damages, or liabilities arising out of or based upon any of the
following in connection with the offer or sale of the contracts:  1) except for
such statements made in reliance on any prospectus, registration statement or
sales material supplied or approved by Pacific Mutual or the Separate Account,
any untrue or alleged untrue statement or representation made; 2) any failure to
deliver a currently effective prospectus;
<PAGE>
 
3) the use of any unauthorized sales literature by any officer, employee, agent,
or sub-agent of PEN, Broker or general agent; or 4) any willful misfeasance, bad
faith, negligence, misconduct or wrongful act.  PEN shall reimburse each such
person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, liability, damage, or claim.

Promptly after receipt by a party entitled to indemnification ("indemnified
party") of notice of the commencement of any action, if a claim for
indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against Pacific Mutual or PEN
("indemnifying party") such indemnified party will notify indemnifying party in
writing of the commencement thereof, but failure to notify the indemnifying
party of any claim shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to
the person against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this
agreement contained in this Section 13.  The indemnifying party will be entitled
to participate in the defense of the indemnified party and such participation
will not relieve such indemnifying party of the obligation to reimburse the
indemnified party for reasonable legal and other expenses incurred by such
indemnified party in defending himself.

14.  Agent of Pacific Mutual or Separate Account.  Any person, even though also
     -------------------------------------------

shall be deemed when rendering services to Pacific Mutual or the Separate
Account or acting in any business of Pacific Mutual or the Separate Account, to
be rendering such services to or acting solely for Pacific Mutual or the
Separate Account and not as an officer, director, employee, or agent or one
under the control or direction of PEN even though paid by PEN.  Likewise, any
person even though also an officer, director, employee, or agent of Pacific
Mutual or the Separate Account, who may be or become an officer, director,
employee, or agent of PEN shall be deemed, when rendering services to PEN or
acting in any business of PEN, to be rendering such services to or acting solely

documents, reports, records, books, files and other materials relating to this
Agreement and the services to be performed hereunder shall be the sole property
of Pacific Mutual and the Separate Account and that such property shall be held
by PEN as agent, during the effective term of this Agreement.  This material
shall be delivered to Pacific Mutual upon the termination of this Agreement free
from any claim or retention of rights by PEN.  During the term of this Agreement
and for a period of three years from the date of termination of this Agreement,
PEN will not disclose or use any records or information and will regard and
preserve as confidential all information related to the business of Pacific
Mutual or the Separate Account that may be obtained by PEN from any source as a
result of this Agreement and will disclose such information only if Pacific
Mutual or the Separate Account has authorized such disclosure, or if such
disclosure is expressly required by applicable federal or state regulatory
authorities.  PEN further acknowledges and agrees that, in the event of a breach
or threatened breach by it of the provisions of this article, Pacific Mutual
will have no adequate remedy in moneys or damages and, accordingly, Pacific
Mutual shall be entitled in its discretion to seek an injunction against such
breach.  However, no specification in this Agreement of a specific legal or
equitable remedy shall be construed as a waiver or prohibition against any other
legal or equitable remedy in the event of a breach of a provision of this
Agreement.

                                       I.
                                  APPOINTMENT

  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Pacific Mutual and PEN
hereby appoint Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent for the solicitation of
applications for the purchase of the Contracts.

  Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent accept such appointment and each

                     AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF GENERAL AGENT

A.  LICENSING AND APPOINTMENT OF SUB-AGENTS

  General Agent is authorized to appoint sub-agents ("Sub-agents") to solicit
sales of the Contracts. General Agent agrees to fulfill all requirements set
forth in the General Letter of Recommendation attached as Schedule A hereto in
conjunction with its submission of licensing and appointment papers for all Sub-
agents.

  General Agent warrants that it and all of its Sub-agents appointed pursuant to
this Agreement shall not solicit nor aid, directly or indirectly, in the
solicitation of any application for any Contract until they are fully licensed
by the proper authorities under the applicable insurance laws within the
applicable jurisdictions where General Agent and Sub-agents propose to offer the
Contracts, where Pacific Mutual is authorized to conduct business and where the
Contracts may be lawfully sold.

  General Agent shall periodically provide Pacific Mutual with a list of all
Sub-agents appointed by General Agent and the jurisdictions where such Sub-
agents are licensed to solicit sales of the Contracts. Pacific Mutual shall
periodically provide General Agent with a list which shows; (i) the
jurisdictions where Pacific Mutual is authorized to do business; and (ii) any
limitations on the availability of the Contracts in any of such jurisdictions.

  General Agent shall prepare and transmit the appropriate appointment forms to
Pacific Mutual. General Agent shall pay all fees to state insurance regulatory
authorities in connection with obtaining necessary licenses and authorizations
for Sub-agents to solicit and sell the Contracts.  Pacific Mutual will pay
appointment fees for General Agent and resident appointment fees for Sub-agents.
Non-resident appointment fees for Sub-agents will be paid by the General Agent.
All renewal appointment fees will be paid by the General Agent for Sub-agents
who have generated less than $20,000 target premium within the prior 12 months.
Pacific Mutual may refuse for any reason to apply for the appointment of a Sub-
agent and may cancel any existing appointment at any time.

B.  REJECTION OF SUB-AGENT

  Pacific Mutual or PEN may refuse for any reason, by written notice to General
Agent, to permit any Sub-agent the right to solicit applications for the sale of
any of the Contracts.  Upon receipt of such notice, General Agent immediately
shall cause such Sub-agent to cease such solicitations of sales and cancel the
appointment of any Sub-agent under this agreement.

C.  SUPERVISION OF SUB-AGENTS

  General Agent shall supervise all Sub-agents appointed pursuant to this
Agreement to solicit sales of the Contracts and bear responsibility for all acts
and omissions of each Sub-agent. General Agent shall comply with and exercise
all responsibilities required by applicable federal and state law and
regulations.  General Agent shall train and supervise its Sub-agents to ensure
that purchase of a Contract is not recommended to an applicant in the absence of
reasonable grounds to believe the purchase of the Contract is suitable for that
applicant.  While not limited to the following, a determination of suitability
shall be based on information furnished to a Sub-agent after reasonable inquiry
of such applicant concerning the applicant's insurance and investment
objectives, financial situation and needs, and the likelihood that the applicant
will continue to make any premium payments contemplated by the Contracts and
will keep the Contract in force for a sufficient period of time so that Pacific
Mutual's acquisition costs are amortized over a reasonable period of time.

  Nothing contained in this Agreement or otherwise shall be deemed to make any
Sub-agent appointed by General Agent an employee or agent of Pacific Mutual or
PEN.  Pacific Mutual and PEN shall not have any responsibility for the training
and supervision of any Sub-agent or any other employee of General Agent.  If the
act or omission of a Sub-agent or any other employee of General Agent is the
proximate cause of claim, damage or liability (including reasonable attorneys'
fees) to Pacific Mutual or PEN, General Agent shall be responsible and liable
therefor.

                 AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF SELLING BROKER-DEALER

  Selling Broker-Dealer agrees that it has full responsibility for the training
and supervision of all persons, including Sub-agents of General Agent,
associated with Selling Broker-Dealer who are engaged directly or indirectly in
the offer or sale of Securities Regulated Contracts.  All such persons shall be
registered representatives of Selling Broker-Dealer and shall be subject to the
control of Selling Broker-Dealer with respect to their securities regulated
activities.  Broker-Dealer shall: (i) train and supervise Sub-agents, in their
capacity as registered representatives, in the sale of Securities Regulated
Contracts; (ii) use its best efforts to cause such Sub-agents to qualify under
applicable federal and state laws to engage in the sale of Securities Regulated
Contracts; (iii) provide Pacific Mutual and PEN to their satisfaction with
evidence of Sub-agents' qualifications to sell Securities Regulated Contracts;
(iv) notify Pacific Mutual if any of such Sub-agents ceases to be a registered
representative of Selling Broker-Dealer; and (v) train and supervise Sub-agents
to ensure compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, rules,
regulations, statements of policy thereunder and with NASD rules. Selling
Broker-Dealer shall train and supervise Sub-agents to ensure that purchase of a
Contract is not recommended to an applicant in the absence of reasonable grounds
to believe the purchase of the Contract is suitable for that applicant.  While
not limited to the following, a determination of suitability shall be based on
information furnished to a Sub-agent after reasonable inquiry of such applicant
concerning the applicant's other security holdings, financial situation and
needs.  Selling Broker-Dealer shall ensure that any offer of a Securities
Regulated Contract made by a Sub-agent will be made by means of a currently
effective prospectus.

  Pacific Mutual and PEN shall not have any responsibility for the supervision
of any registered representative or any other employee or affiliate of Selling
Broker-Dealer.  If the act or omission of a registered representative or any
other employee or affiliate of Selling Broker-Dealer is the proximate cause of
any claim, damage or liability (including reasonable attorney's fees) to Pacific
Mutual or PEN, Selling Broker-Dealer shall be responsible and liable therefor.

  Selling Broker-Dealer at all times shall be duly registered as a broker-dealer
under the 1934 Act, a member in good standing of the NASD and duly licensed in
all states and jurisdictions where required to perform pursuant to this
agreement.  Selling Broker-Dealer shall fully comply with the requirements of
the 1934 Act and all other applicable federal or state laws and with the rules
of the NASD.  Selling Broker-Dealer shall establish such rules and procedures as
may be necessary to cause diligent supervision of the securities activities of
the Sub-agents including ensuring compliance with the prospectus delivery
requirements of the 1933 Act.


                                      IV.
                            AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF
                    GENERAL AGENT AND SELLING BROKER-DEALER

A.  CONTRACTS

  The securities and insurance regulated Contracts issued by Pacific Mutual to
which this Agreement applies are listed in Schedule B, which may be amended from
time to time by Pacific Mutual.  Pacific Mutual, in its sole discretion, with
prior or concurrent written notice to Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent,
may suspend distribution of any Contract.  Pacific Mutual also has the right to
amend any Contract at any time.

B.  SECURING APPLICATIONS

  Each application for a Contract shall be made on an application form provided
by Pacific Mutual, and all payments collected by Selling Broker-Dealer, General
Agent or any registered representative and Sub-agent shall be remitted promptly
in full, together with such application form and any other required
documentation, directly to Pacific Mutual at the address indicated on such
application or to such other address as may be designated by Pacific Mutual.
All such payments and documents shall be the property of Pacific Mutual.
Selling Broker-Dealer and 

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
General Agent shall review all such applications for completeness and for
compliance with the conditions herein, including the suitability and prospectus
delivery requirements set forth above under Sections II.C and III. Check or
money order in payment of such Contracts should be made payable to the order of
"Pacific Mutual". All applications are subject to acceptance or rejection by
Pacific Mutual in its sole discretion.

C.  RECEIPT OF MONEY

  All money payable in connection with any of the Contracts, whether as premium,
purchase payment or otherwise and whether paid by or on behalf of any contract
owner or anyone else having an interest in the Contracts, is the property of
Pacific Mutual and shall be transmitted immediately in accordance with the
administrative procedures of Pacific Mutual without any deduction or offset for
any reason including, but not limited to, any deduction or offset for
compensation claimed by Selling Broker-Dealer or General Agent, unless there has
been a prior arrangement for net wire transmissions between Pacific Mutual and
Selling Broker-Dealer or General Agent.

D.  NOTICE OF SUB-AGENT'S NONCOMPLIANCE

  Selling Broker-Dealer shall immediately notify PEN and General Agent in the
event a Sub-agent fails or refuses to submit to the supervision of Selling
Broker-Dealer or General Agent in accordance with this Agreement, the agreement
between Selling Broker-Dealer, General Agent and Sub-agent referred to in
Section IV.H, below, or otherwise fails to meet the rules and standards imposed
by Selling Broker-Dealer or its registered representatives or General Agent or
its Sub-agents.  Selling Broker-Dealer or General Agent shall also immediately
notify such Sub-agent that he or she is no longer authorized to sell the
Contracts, and both Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent shall take whatever
additional action may be necessary to terminate the sale activities of such Sub-
agent relating to the Contracts.

E.  SALES PROMOTION, ADVERTISING AND PROSPECTUSES

  No sales promotion materials, circulars, documents or any advertising relating
to any of the Contracts shall be used by Selling Broker-Dealer, General Agent or
any Sub-agents unless the specific item has been approved in writing by PEN and
Pacific Mutual prior to use.  Selling Broker-Dealer shall be provided, without
any expense to Selling Broker-Dealer, with prospectuses relating to Securities
Regulated Contracts.  Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent shall be provided
with such other material as PEN determines necessary or desirable for use in
connection with sales of the Contracts.  Nothing in these provisions shall
prohibit Selling Broker-Dealer or General Agent from advertising life insurance
and annuities on a generic basis.

  Selling Broker-Dealer, General Agent and Sub-agents shall make no material
representations relating to the Securities Regulated Contracts, other than those
contained in the relevant registration statement, as may be amended, or in sales
promotion or other materials approved by Pacific Mutual and PEN as provided in
this section.

F.  CONFIDENTIALITY

  Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent shall keep confidential all
information obtained pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation,
names of the purchasers of the Policies, and shall disclose such information,
only if Pacific Mutual or PEN have authorized such disclosure in writing, or if
such disclosure is expressly required by applicable federal or state regulatory
authorities.

G.  RECORDS

  Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent shall have the responsibility for
maintaining the records of its Sub-agents and representatives licensed,
registered and otherwise qualified to sell the Contracts.  Selling Broker-Dealer
and General Agent shall maintain such other records as are required of them by
applicable laws and regulations.  The books, accounts and records of Selling
Broker-Dealer and General Agent relating to the sale of the Contracts shall be
maintained so as to clearly and accurately disclose the nature and details of
the transactions.  Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent each agree to make
the books and records relating to the sale of the Contracts available to Pacific
Mutual or PEN upon their written request.

<PAGE>
 
H.  SUB-AGENT AGREEMENTS

  Before a Sub-agent is permitted to sell the Contracts, General Agent, Selling
Broker-Dealer and Sub-agent shall have entered into a written agreement pursuant
to which: (i) Sub-agent is appointed a Sub-agent of General Agent and a
registered representative of Selling Broker-Dealer; (ii) Sub-agent agrees that
his or her selling activities relating to Securities Regulated Contracts shall
be under the supervision and control of Selling Broker-Dealer; and (iii) that
Sub-agent's right to continue to sell such Contracts is subject to his or her
continued compliance with such agreement and any procedures, rules or
regulations implemented by Selling Broker-Dealer or General Agent.

                                       V.
                                  COMPENSATION

A.  COMMISSIONS AND FEES

  Commissions and fees payable to General Agent or any Sub-agent in connection
with the Contracts shall be paid by Pacific Mutual through PEN to General Agent,
or as otherwise permitted by law or regulation.  General Agent shall pay Sub-
agents.  PEN will provide Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent with a copy of
its current Compensation Schedule(s), attached hereto as Schedule B.  Unless
otherwise provided in Schedule B, compensation will be paid as a percentage of
premiums or purchase payments (collectively, "Payments") received in cash or
other legal tender and accepted by Pacific Mutual on applications obtained by
the various Sub-agents appointed by General Agent hereunder.  Upon termination
of this Agreement, all compensation to General Agent hereunder shall cease.
However, General Agent shall be entitled to receive compensation for all new and
additional premium payments which are in process at the time of termination, and
shall continue to be liable for any charge-backs pursuant to the provisions of
said Schedule B, or for any other amount advanced by or otherwise due Pacific
Mutual or PEN hereunder.  Pacific Mutual reserves the right not to pay
compensation on a policy or contract for which the premium is paid in whole or
in part by the loan or surrender value of any other life insurance policy or
annuity contract issued by Pacific Mutual.

  PEN shall deduct any chargebacks from compensation otherwise due General Agent
or Selling Broker-Dealer.  If any amount to be deducted exceeds compensation
otherwise due, General Agent and/or Selling Broker-Dealer shall promptly pay
back the amount of the excess following a written demand by PEN or Pacific
Mutual.  General Agent and Selling Broker-Dealer are jointly and severally
liable for such chargebacks.

  Pacific Mutual reserves the right to reduce first year commissions and renewal
commissions, if necessary, on any life policies sold to residents of the State
of Kentucky and paid for after May 1, 1991.  Such reduction shall be in an
amount sufficient to cover any premium tax levied by cities and counties within
the State of Kentucky which is over and above the premium tax paid by Pacific
Mutual to the State of Kentucky.

  Pacific Mutual recognizes the Contract owners' right on issued Contracts to
terminate Selling Broker-Dealer and/or change a Selling Broker-Dealer, provided
that the Contract owner notifies PEN in writing.  When a Contract owner
terminates Selling Broker-Dealer, no further compensation on any payments due or
received, or on any increases in face amount in the existing policy after
termination, shall be payable to that Selling Broker-Dealer in accordance with
Schedule B after the notice of termination is received and accepted by PEN.
However, when a Contract owner designates a Selling Broker-Dealer other than the
Selling Broker-Dealer of record, compensation on any payments due or received,
or on any increases in face amount in the existing Contract after the change,
shall be payable to the new Selling Broker-Dealer in accordance with Schedule B
in effect at the time of issuance of the Contract.

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
  A change of Selling Broker-Dealer request shall be honored only if there
exists a valid Selling Agreement between  Pacific Mutual, PEN and the new
Selling Broker-Dealer and (1) the Contract owner(s) requests in writing that the
Sub-agent remains as representative of record, or (2) both the former and future
Selling Broker-Dealers direct Pacific Mutual and PEN in a joint writing to
transfer all policies and future compensation to the new Selling Broker-Dealer,
or (3) the NASD approves and effects a bulk transfer of all representatives to a
new Selling Broker-Dealer.

B.  TIME OF PAYMENT

  PEN will pay any commissions due General Agent at least twice monthly in
accordance with Schedule B of this Agreement, as it may be amended from time to
time.

C.  AMENDMENT OF SCHEDULES

  PEN may amend Schedule B upon at least ten (10) days' prior written notice to
Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent.  The submission of an application for
the Contracts by Selling Broker-Dealer or General Agent after the effective date
of any such amendment shall constitute agreement to such amendment.  Any such
amendment shall apply to compensation due on applications received by Pacific
Mutual after the effective date of such notice.

D.  Prohibition Against Rebates

  Pacific Mutual or PEN may terminate this Agreement if Selling Broker-Dealer,
General Agent or any Sub-agent rebates, offers to rebate or withholds any part
of any Payment on the Contracts.  If Selling Broker-Dealer, General Agent or any
Sub-agent of General Agent shall at any time induce or endeavor to induce any
owner of any Contract issued hereunder to discontinue payments or to relinquish
any such Contract, except under circumstances where there is reasonable grounds
for believing the Contract is not suitable for such person, any and all
compensation due General Agent hereunder shall cease and terminate.

E.  INDEBTEDNESS AND RIGHT OF SET OFF

  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as giving Selling
Broker-Dealer or General Agent the right to incur any indebtedness on behalf of
Pacific Mutual or PEN.  Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent hereby authorize
PEN and Pacific Mutual to set off liabilities of Selling Broker-Dealer and
General Agent to Pacific Mutual and PEN against any and all amounts otherwise
payable to Selling Broker-Dealer or General Agent.


                                      VI.
                               GENERAL PROVISIONS

A.  Waiver

  Failure of any party to insist upon strict compliance with any of the
conditions of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any of the
conditions, but the same shall remain in full force and effect.  No waiver of
any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to be, or shall
constitute, a waiver of any other provisions, whether or not similar, nor shall
any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

extend the time of making any payments; (iii) enter into any proceeding in a

officers, agents, employees and Sub-agents who are licensed pursuant to this
Agreement as Pacific Mutual agents for state insurance law purposes or who have
access to funds of Pacific Mutual, including but not limited to, funds submitted
with applications for the Contracts are and shall be covered by a blanket
fidelity bond, including coverage for larceny and embezzlement, issued by a
reputable bonding company.  This bond shall be maintained by Selling Broker-
Dealer or General Agent at their expense.  Such bond shall be, at a minimum, of
the form, type, and amount required under NASD Rules, endorsed to extend
coverage to transactions relating to the Contracts.  Pacific Mutual may require
evidence, satisfactory to it, that such coverage is in force and Selling Broker-
Dealer or General Agent, as the case may be, shall give prompt written notice to
Pacific Mutual of any notice of cancellation of the bond or change of coverage.

  Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent hereby assign any proceeds received
from a fidelity bonding company, error and omissions or other liability
coverage, to Pacific Mutual or PEN as their interest may appear, to the extent
of their loss due to activities covered by the bond, policy or other liability
coverage. If there is any deficiency amount, whether due to a deductible or
otherwise, Selling Broker-Dealer or General Agent shall promptly pay such
amounts on demand.  Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent hereby indemnify and
hold harmless Pacific Mutual and PEN from any such deficiency and from the costs
of collection thereof (including reasonable attorneys' fees).

D.  BINDING EFFECT

parties to it and their respective successors and assigns provided that neither

                     times the target premium; C% of all premium in excess of

2.  Compensation Schedules:  "Standard Compensation" Schedule shall apply to all
policies solicited and issued under this agreement other than those to which the
"Affiliate Compensation" Schedule applies.  The "Affiliate Compensation"
Schedule will become effective only upon acceptance by Pacific Equities Network
("PEN") of the fully executed Affiliate Acknowledgment and Approval form.  The
"Affiliate Compensation" Schedule election may be rescinded at any time, as
provided in the Affiliate Acknowledgment and Approval form.  Upon such rescision
the "Standard Compensation" Schedule will become effective.

3.  Target Premium:  The target premium is an amount determined from tables
published by PM with respect to a policy or rider upon which commissions are
based.  Target premiums shall be calculated in accordance with the rates and
methods of calculations described in the Pacific Select Exec Rates and Values
Booklet.  As it applies to future business, the target premium may be changed
from time to time by PM.  The target premium applicable to a particular coverage
shall be determined from the table in force when the first premium for such
coverage is entered as paid in the accounting records of PM.  There is a
separate table of target premiums for guaranteed issue policies.

4.  Commission Calculation:  Commissions shall only be calculated on premium
actually received and accepted by PM.  Commissions shall only be paid on an
earned basis.

5.  Commission Rates on Increase in Face Amount:  After a policy has had an
increase in face amount, premiums paid shall be allocated to the initial face
amount and to each increase in proportion to the respective target premiums.

6.  Guaranteed Issue:  The commission target premium has been reduced for Issue
Ages 41 and above for males, females and unisex policies.  (See current Rates
and Values Booklet for more details.)

7.  Trail Commission:  A trail commission shall be credited on an annualized
basis.  Such trail commission shall be computed monthly as of the end of each
policy month on the policy's Accumulated Value less policy debt.  The total of
such amounts for the first ten policy years shall be payable on the tenth policy
anniversary.  For the policy years after the tenth year, the trail commission
shall be payable on each policy anniversary.  Trail commission shall be paid
only if the policy is in force on the date the trail commission becomes payable.

<PAGE>
 
8.  Compensation Payments:  Compensation on initial premium shall be due to the
General Agent and/or Selling Broker/Dealer at the time of the issuance of the
policy and for all other premium payments at the time of the receipt and
acceptance of premium by PM.  After a change of Compensation Schedule or a
change of Broker/Dealer compensation due on existing policies shall be payable
to the General Agent and/or Selling Broker/Dealer in accordance with the
Schedule B in effect at the time of solicitation of the policy.  Moreover, when
a Contract Owner terminates a Broker/Dealer, no further commissions or
compensation due on existing policies after termination shall be payable to the
General Agent and/or Selling Broker/Dealer after the notice of termination is
received and accepted by PM.

     The amount, if any, and the time of payment of compensation on
replacements, changes, conversions, exchanges, term renewals, premiums paid in
advance, policies issued on a "guaranteed issue" basis, life policies issued
over age 70, policies in excess of PM's retention or policies requiring
reinsurance, and other special cases and programs shall be governed by PM's
underwriting and administrative rules then in effect.

9.  Commission Chargeback:  In the event that a policy for which a commission
has been paid is lapsed or surrendered by the Contract Owner during the first
two policy years, or is returned to PEN or PM for refund of premium within the
later of 10 days after the purchaser receives it or 45 days after the
application for the policy is completed, or a premium for which commission has
been paid is refunded by PM, PEN shall require reimbursement from General Agent
and/or Selling Broker/Dealer as follows:

 .  100% of the commission if the lapse, surrender, return or refund occurs
   within six months of the policy issue date;

 .  50% of the commission if the lapse, surrender, return or refund occurs during
   the seventh through twelfth months after the policy issue date;

 .  25% of the commission if the lapse, surrender, return or refund occurs during
   the thirteenth through twenty-fourth months after the policy issue date.

If the amount to be deducted exceeds compensation otherwise due, General Agent
and/or Selling Broker/Dealer shall reimburse PEN before the next commission
cycle or within 10 business days from the date of mailing of a written demand
for reimbursement, whichever is later.

PM and PEN reserve the right to terminate or amend this schedule by providing
written notification to other parties in accordance with Section VI.G of the
Selling Agreement.

This Schedule shall be effective as of ______________________.

POLICY DATE - is shown on page 3.  Policy months, years and anniversaries are
measured from this date.

AGE - means age nearest birthday as of the Policy Date, increased by the number
of complete policy years elapsed.

EVIDENCE OF INSURABILITY - is information, including medical information,
satisfactory to us that is used to determine insurability and the insured's
class of risk.

DEBT - means all unpaid policy loans plus accrued interest on such loans.

WRITTEN REQUEST - is a request in writing satisfactory to PM and filed at its
Home Office.

MATURITY DATE - is the policy anniversary nearest the insured's 95th birthday.

OWNER AND BENEFICIARY

OWNER - The Owner of this policy is as shown on the Policy Specifications pages
or in a later written change.  If there are two or more owners, they will own
this policy as joint tenants with right of survivorship, unless otherwise
stated.

ASSIGNMENT - You may assign this policy by written request.  An assignment will
take place only when recorded at our Home Office.  When recorded, the assignment
will take effect as of the date the written request was signed.  Any rights
created by the assignment will be subject to any payments made or actions taken
by PM before the change is recorded.  PM will not be responsible for the
validity of any assignment.

BENEFICIARY - The beneficiary is named by you in the application to receive the
death proceeds. The interest of any beneficiary will be subject to any
assignment.

You may make a change of beneficiary by written request on forms provided by PM
while the insured is living.  The change will take place as of the date the
request is signed.  Any rights created
<PAGE>
 
by the change will be subject to any payments made or actions taken by PM before
the written request is received.  You may designate a permanent beneficiary
whose rights under the policy cannot be changed without his or her consent.

The interest of a beneficiary who does not survive to receive payment will pass
to the surviving beneficiaries in proportion to their share in the proceeds,
unless otherwise provided.  If no beneficiaries survive to receive payment, the
death benefit proceeds will pass to the owner, or the owner's estate if the
owner does not survive to receive payment.

PREMIUMS

PREMIUMS - This policy will not be in force until the initial premium is paid.
No premium may be less than $50.  Premiums may be paid at any time prior to the
maturity date, subject to the premium limitations shown on the following page.
Premiums are payable either at our Home Office or to an agent of PM.  On written
request a premium receipt signed by an officer of PM will be given after
payment.

PREMIUM ALLOCATION - The initial premium, less the Premium Load, will be
allocated to the Money Market Variable Account on the date it is received.  On
the date which is the later of 15 days after the policy is issued or 45 days
after the date the application is signed, the Accumulated Value in the Money
Market Variable Account will be allocated to the Fixed and Variable Accounts
according to the premium allocation specified in the application.  Any
additional premiums received by us prior to such date, less the Premium Load,
will be allocated to the Money Market Variable Account.

Upon written request, you may change the premium allocation.  Subsequent
premiums received by us, less the Premium Load, will be allocated to the Fixed
and Variable Accounts according to your most recent instructions, subject to the
following.  The Accumulated Value may be allocated to no more than five of the
Fixed and Variable Accounts.  If we receive a premium and your most recent
allocation instructions would violate this requirement, we will allocate the
premium, less the Premium Load, to the Fixed and Variable Accounts in the same
proportion as the Accumulated Value in those accounts.

PREMIUM LIMITATION - In order for this policy to be treated as life insurance
under the Internal Revenue Code, the sum of the premiums paid less a portion of
any Withdrawals as defined in the Internal Revenue Code may not exceed the
greater of:

- - the Guideline Single Premium; or

- - the sum of the Guideline Level Premiums to the date of payment.

The amounts of the Guideline Premiums are shown in the Policy Specifications
pages.  The Guideline Premiums will change whenever there is a change in the
face amount of insurance or in other policy benefits.  Such change will be shown
in the supplemental schedule of benefits and premiums.
<PAGE>
 
The Guideline premiums are determined according to the rules applicable to this
policy set forth in the Internal Revenue Code.  The Guideline Premiums will be
adjusted to conform to any changes in the Internal Revenue Code.

In the event that a premium payment would exceed these limits, we reserve the
right to refund the excess payment to the owner.  Further, we reserve the right
to make distributions from the policy to the extent we deem it necessary to
continue to qualify this policy as life insurance under the Internal Revenue
Code.

We reserve the right to require evidence of insurability, satisfactory to us,
for any premium payment that would result in an immediate increase in the
difference between the death benefit and the Accumulated Value.

GRACE PERIOD AND LAPSE - If the Accumulated Value less debt on a monthly payment
date is not sufficient to cover the current monthly deduction, a grace period of
61 days will be allowed for the payment of sufficient premium to keep your
policy in force.  At the start of the Grace Period, we will transfer with no
charge, the portion of the Accumulated Value in all Variable Accounts into the
Money Market Variable Account.

We will send a notice at the start of the grace period to you at your last known
address and to any assignee of record.  The grace period will end 61 days after
we mail you the notice.  The notice will state the due date and the amount of
premium required to keep your policy in force.  A minimum of three times the
monthly deduction due when the insufficiency occurred must be paid.  Upon
receipt of payment, we will allocate the Accumulated Value in the Money Market
Account and the premium payment, less the Premium Load, to the Variable Accounts
and Fixed Account according to your most recent premium allocation instructions.
Your Policy will remain in force during the grace period.  If sufficient premium
is not paid by the end of the grace period, a lapse will occur.  We will send
you and any assignee of record, a written notice 30 days prior to lapse.  Upon
lapse, the policy will terminate with no value.

REINSTATEMENT - If it has not been surrendered, this policy may be reinstated
not more than five years after the end of the grace period.  To reinstate this
policy you must provide us with:

- - written application;

- - evidence of insurability satisfactory to us;

- - payment of sufficient premium to cover all monthly deductions that were due
  and unpaid during the grace period; plus

- - payment of sufficient premium to keep the policy in force for three months
after the date of reinstatement.

When this policy is reinstated, the Accumulated Value will be equal to the
Accumulated Value on the date of lapse subject to the following.  We will
allocate the Accumulated Value and your
<PAGE>
 
premium payment, less the Premium Load, to the Variable Accounts and Fixed
Account according to your most recent premium allocation instructions.  If the
policy is reinstated after the first monthly payment date following lapse, the
Accumulated Value will be reduced by the amount of any debt on the date of lapse
and no policy debt will exist on the date of reinstatement.  If the policy is
reinstated on the first monthly payment date following lapse, any debt on the
date of lapse will also be reinstated, with the corresponding portion of the
Accumulated Value allocated to the Loan Account as described in the Policy Loans
provision.

The effective date of the reinstated policy will be the first monthly payment
date on or following the date we approve your reinstatement application.

POLICY BENEFITS

DEATH BENEFIT OPTIONS - The death benefit for this policy will be one of the
following.

OPTION A - The death benefit equals the greater of:

- - the face amount; or

- - the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit.

OPTION B - The death benefit is the greater of:

- - the face amount plus the Accumulated Value on the date of death; or

- - the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit.

The owner elects the Death Benefit Option in the application.  If no option is
elected, Option A is the automatic option.  Thereafter the option may be changed
on written request.  After any such change, the face amount will be that amount
which results in the death benefit after  the change being equal to the death
benefit before the change.  The Death Benefit Option may not be changed more
than once in any policy year.

Changing from Option A to Option B will require evidence of insurability
satisfactory to PM and will be subject to an administrative charge of $100.
This charge will be deducted from the Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account and
the Variable Accounts in the proportion that each bears to your Accumulated
Value less debt on the effective date of the change.

THE GUIDELINE MINIMUM DEATH BENEFIT at any time is the Accumulated Value
multiplied by the Death Benefit Percentage shown below:

</TABLE>

DEATH BENEFIT PROCEEDS - The actual amount payable to the beneficiary if the
insured dies while your policy is in force is called the death benefit proceeds.
The death benefit proceeds are equal to the death benefit provided by your
policy, as of the date of death, less any debt and less any due and unpaid
monthly deductions occurring during a grace period.

We will pay the death benefit proceeds to the beneficiary after we receive, at
our Home Office, proof of the insured's death satisfactory to us and such other
information as we may reasonably require. The actual death benefit proceeds paid
are subject to the conditions and adjustments defined in other policy
provisions, such as General Provisions, Withdrawals and Policy Loans.

CHANGE PROVISION - Subject to PM's approval, the owner may change the face
amount of insurance if such request is made:

- - during the lifetime of the insured;

- - after the fifth policy year following the later of the policy date or the most
recent increase in face amount if the change is a decrease; this restriction
does not apply for changes from Death Benefit Option A to Option B;

- - no more often than once in any policy year; and

- - on written request while this policy is in force.

INCREASE - The effective date of the increased face amount will be the first
monthly payment date on or following the date the all applicable conditions are
met.  A supplemental schedule of benefits
<PAGE>
 
and premiums will be issued.  This schedule will include the following
information:

- - the effective date of the increased face amount;

- - the amount of the increase and the increased face amount; and

- - the class of risk; and

- - the new Guideline Premiums.

An increase in face amount will be allowed only if it results in a death benefit
increase no less than our minimum limit in effect on the date of the request.

A charge of $100 will be deducted from the Accumulated Value in the Fixed
Account and the Variable Accounts in the proportion that each bears to your
Accumulated Value less debt on the effective date of the increase.

DECREASE - The effective date of the decreased face amount will be the first
monthly payment date on or following the date the written request is received by
us.  Existing insurance will be decreased or eliminated in the following order:

- - first, the most recent increase;

- - second, the next most recent increases successively; and

- - finally, the original face amount.

A supplemental schedule of benefits and premiums will be issued.  This schedule
will include the following information:

- - the effective date of the decreased face amount;

- - the amount of the decrease and the decreased face amount; and

- - the new Guideline Premiums.

The request for a decrease in the face amount will be subject to the Guideline
Premiums Limitation as defined in the Internal Revenue Code.  Such request will
not be allowed if the resulting Guideline Premiums could cause an amount in
excess of the Net Cash Surrender Value to be distributed from the policy.  The
face amount of this policy may not be decreased to less than the our minimum
issue limit in effect on the date of the request.

Any decrease in the face amount must result in a death benefit decrease no less
than our minimum limit in effect on the date of the request.
<PAGE>
 
ACCUMULATED VALUE

ACCUMULATED VALUE - The Accumulated Value on any date is the sum of your
policy's Accumulated Value in the Fixed and Variable Accounts, plus the amount
set aside in the Loan Account to secure any policy debt.

The amount set aside to secure debt in the Loan Account on each policy
anniversary is equal to the amount of debt.  During each policy year, the amount
in the Loan Account on any date is:

- - the amount in the Loan Account on the prior anniversary increased by interest;

- - plus any loan taken since the prior anniversary increased by interest; and

- - minus any loan amount repaid since the prior anniversary increased by
interest.

FIXED ACCOUNT - The Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account on any date is:

- - the Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account on the prior monthly payment date
increased by interest;

- - plus the amount of any premiums less Premium Load received and allocated to
the Fixed Account since the last monthly payment date, increased by interest;

- - minus the monthly deduction and other deductions due, if any, and assessed
against the Fixed Account increased by interest:

- - minus the amount of any Withdrawals, or transfers from the Fixed Account,
including transfers to the Loan Account, since the last monthly payment date,
increased by interest; and

- - plus the amount of any transfer to the Fixed Account, including transfers from
the Loan Account, since the last monthly payment date, increased by interest.

VARIABLE ACCOUNTS - Assets in the Variable Accounts are divided into
Accumulation units, which are a measure of value used for bookkeeping purposes.
We credit your policy with Accumulation units in each Variable Account as a
result of:

- - the amount of any premiums less Premium Load received and allocated to the
Variable Account; and

- - transfers of Accumulated Value to the Variable Account, including transfers to
the Loan Account;

We debit Accumulation units in each Variable Account as a result of:

- - transfers from the Variable Account, including transfers to the Loan Account;
<PAGE>
 
- - surrenders and Withdrawals from the Variable Account; and

- - the monthly deduction and other deductions due, if any, and assessed against
the Variable Account.

To determine the number of Accumulation units debited or credited in connection
with a transaction, we divide the dollar amount of the transaction by the unit
value of the affected Variable Account.

The unit value of each Variable Account is determined on each Valuation Date.
The number of units in each Variable Account will not change because of
subsequent changes in unit value.

The Accumulation unit value of each Variable Account initially was $10.  To
calculate the unit value of a Variable Account on any Valuation Date, we adjust
the unit value from the previous Valuation Date, for:

- - the investment performance of the Variable Account;

- - any dividends or distributions paid to the Variable Account;

- - charges, if any, that may be assessed by us for income taxes attributable to
the operation of the Variable Account.

A Valuation Date is each day required by applicable law and currently includes
each day the New York Stock Exchange is open.

To determine your Accumulated Value in each Variable Account, we multiply the
number of units in the Variable Account by the unit value of such account.

INTEREST - We will credit interest on the Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account
at a rate not less than .32737% per month, compounded monthly.  This is
equivalent to 4% annually.  At our discretion, we may credit a higher rate of
interest from time to time.  We will credit interest on the amount in the Loan
Account at a rate of .32737% per month, compounded monthly.

TRANSFERS - After the Free Look Right period and while your policy is in force,
you may, upon written request, transfer your Accumulated Value, or a part of it,
among the Fixed and Variable Accounts subject to the following.  No transfer may
be made if the policy is in a grace period and the required premium has not been
paid.  Only one transfer from the Fixed Account may be made in any twelve month
period.  If the Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account is at least $1000,
transfers from the Fixed Account will be limited to 20% of the Accumulated Value
in the Fixed Account.  Transfers from the Variable Accounts to the Fixed Account
may be made only during the policy month preceding each policy anniversary.
After each transfer, the Accumulated Value may be allocated to no more than five
of the Fixed and Variable Accounts.

No charges are currently imposed upon a transfer.  We reserve the right at a
future date to limit the size of transfers and remaining balances, to assess
transfer charges and to limit the number and frequency of transfers.
<PAGE>
 
MONTHLY DEDUCTION - A Monthly Deduction for a policy month is due on each
monthly payment date and is equal to the sum of the following items:

- - the monthly Cost of Insurance Charge;

- - the Administrative Charge, if any;

- - the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge; and

- - the monthly charge of any rider benefits.

The Monthly Deduction will be charged proportionately to the Accumulated Value
in each Variable Account and the Fixed Account on the monthly payment date.

COST OF INSURANCE CHARGE - Beginning on the policy date and monthly thereafter,
there will be a charge equal to the Cost of Insurance applicable to the
following.

- - the initial face amount; plus

- - each increase in the face amount.

The monthly Cost of Insurance Charge for the death benefit payable under this
policy, is (1) multiplied by the result of (2) minus (3), where:

- - (1) is the applicable monthly Cost of Insurance Rate;

- - (2) is the death benefit at the beginning of the policy month divided by
1.004074; and

- - (3) is the Accumulated Value at the beginning of the policy month before the
Monthly Deduction due, including any interest credited to the Loan Account.

If there have been increases in the face amount, then, for purposes of
calculating the Cost of Insurance Charge, the Accumulated Value will first be
considered applicable to the initial face amount.  If the Accumulated Value
exceeds the initial face amount divided by 1.004074, the excess will then be
considered applicable to any additional face amount resulting from increases in
the order of the increases.

COST OF INSURANCE RATES - The Cost of Insurance Rates are based on the insured's
age, gender, risk classification, and the policy duration.  The current monthly
Cost of Insurance Rates will be determined by us.  These rates will not exceed
the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates shown on the Policy
Specifications pages.  Any changes in the Cost of Insurance Rates will apply
uniformly to all members of the same class.

If the death benefit equals a percentage of the Accumulated Value, any increase
in Accumulated Value will cause an automatic increase in the death benefit.  The
risk classification and duration for
<PAGE>
 
such increase will be the same as that used for the most recent increase in face
amount that has not been eliminated through the Decrease provision.

MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE - Beginning on the policy date and monthly
thereafter, there will be a charge equal to .000625 (.75% annually) in the first
10 policy years; .000208333 (.25% annually) thereafter multiplied by the
Accumulated Value less debt at the beginning of the policy month less the Cost
of Insurance Charge and less the monthly charge for rider benefits, if any.  The
Mortality and Expense Risk Charge is to compensate us for the risk we assume
that mortality and expenses will be greater than estimated.

ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGE - Beginning on the policy date and monthly thereafter,
there will be an Administrative Charge against the Accumulated Value.  The
amount of this charge, will not exceed the amount shown on the Policy
Specifications pages.

PREMIUM LOAD - A Premium Load will be charged each time a premium is paid to
cover premium tax and our sales and distribution expenses.  The Premium Load
will equal a certain percentage of the corresponding premium and consists of the
following:

- - a sales load equal to 4% in the first 10 policy years and 2% thereafter; and

- - a charge of 2.35% for premium taxes.

The Premium Load associated with each premium will be immediately deducted from
the premium paid.

OTHER DEDUCTIONS - On the effective date of any increase in face amount or a
change from Option A to Option B we will deduct $100 from your Accumulated Value
in the Fixed and Variable Accounts in the proportion that each bears to your
Accumulated Value less debt.  However, if the face amount is increased strictly
as a result of a change from Option B to Option A, the charge for an increase
will be waived.

MATURITY, SURRENDER AND WITHDRAWAL OF VALUES

MATURITY - If the insured is living on the maturity date, this policy will then
terminate.  We will pay to you the Accumulated Value less Debt as a final
settlement.

SURRENDER - Upon written request while the insured is living you may surrender
this policy for its Net Cash Surrender Value.  The policy will terminate on the
date the request is received.

NET CASH SURRENDER VALUE - The Net Cash Surrender Value is the Cash Surrender
Value less any policy debt.

CASH SURRENDER VALUE - The Cash Surrender Value is the Accumulated Value less
any surrender charge.
<PAGE>
 
SURRENDER CHARGE - A surrender charge will be deducted from the Accumulated
Value upon surrender of the policy.  The surrender charge is needed to help pay
for underwriting, policy issue, and sales costs.  The total surrender charge is
equal to the sum of an Underwriting Surrender Charge and a Sales Surrender
Charge.

The Underwriting Surrender Charge is shown on the Policy Specifications pages.
It remains level for 5 policy years and then decreases by 1.666% per month to
zero at the 120th month.

The Sales Surrender Charge is equal to 26% of the premiums paid up to the Sales
Surrender Target. The Sales Surrender Target is shown on the Policy
Specifications pages.  The Sales Surrender Charge increases as premiums are paid
until the Sales Surrender Target is reached.  After the 5th policy year the
maximum Sales Surrender Charge decreases by 1.666% per month to zero at the
120th month.

WITHDRAWALS - Withdrawals of the Net Cash Surrender Value may be taken as
follows:

Upon written request on or after the first policy anniversary and before the
15th policy anniversary, while the insured is living, you may withdraw a portion
of the Net Cash Surrender Value of this policy as a Preferred Withdrawal.  A
maximum of one Preferred Withdrawal may be taken in each policy year.  Preferred
Withdrawals will not be allowed on or after the 15th policy anniversary.

The portion of a Preferred Withdrawal up to 10% of the sum of all premiums paid
will not affect the face amount of this policy.  The excess of any Preferred
Withdrawal over 10% of the sum of all premiums paid will be treated as a Partial
Withdrawal and will therefore cause a reduction in face amount, as described
below, if the Death Benefit is Option A.

Upon written request on or after the 15th policy anniversary while the insured
is living, you may withdraw a portion of the Net Cash Surrender Value of this
policy as a Partial Withdrawal.  Partial Withdrawals will not be allowed prior
to the 15th policy anniversary.

When a Partial Withdrawal is taken and the Death Benefit Option is A, the face
amount will be reduced by the lesser of:

- - (1) the amount of the Partial Withdrawal; or

- - (2) the excess, if any, of the face amount over the result of (a) minus (b)
where:

- - (a) is the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit immediately prior to the Partial
Withdrawal; and

- - (b) is the amount of the Partial Withdrawal.

Preferred and Partial Withdrawals will be subject to the following conditions:
The amount of each withdrawal must be at least $500 and the Net Cash Surrender
Value remaining after each withdrawal must be at least $500.  Also, if there is
any policy debt at the time of each withdrawal, the amount of the withdrawal is
limited to the excess, if any, of the Cash Surrender Value immediately prior to
<PAGE>
 
the withdrawal over the result of the debt divided by 90%.

A withdrawal will not be allowed if it causes the face amount to drop below our
minimum issue limit.  The amount of each withdrawal will be allocated
proportionately to the Accumulated Value in the Fixed and Variable Accounts
unless otherwise requested by you.  If the insured dies after the request for a
withdrawal is sent to us and prior to withdrawal being effected, the amount of
the withdrawal will be deducted from the death benefit proceeds, which will be
determined without taking the withdrawal into account.

INCOME BENEFITS

INCOME BENEFITS - Maturity, surrender or withdrawal benefits may be used to buy
a lifetime monthly income.  Death benefits may be used to buy a monthly income
for the lifetime of the beneficiary.  The monthly income will be payable for at
least ten years.  The purchase rates for the monthly income will be set from
time to time.  However, the income bought by each $1,000 will always be at least
as large as that shown below.

<PAGE>
 
POLICY LOANS

POLICY LOANS - You may obtain loans by written request after the Free Look
Period on the sole security of the amount in the Loan Account for this policy.

AMOUNT AVAILABLE - The amount available for a loan is equal to 100% of the
Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account plus 90% of the Accumulated Value in the
Variable Accounts, less any debt and less any surrender charges that would be
imposed if the policy were surrendered on the date the loan was taken.  The
amount of a loan must be at least $500.

LOAN INTEREST - Interest will accrue daily and is payable in arrears at the
annual rate of 4.75%. Interest not paid when due will be added to the loan
principal and bear interest at the same rate of interest.

LOAN ACCOUNT - When a loan is taken, an amount equal to the loan is transferred
out of the Accumulated Value in the Fixed and Variable Accounts into the Loan
Account to secure the loan. Unless you request otherwise, loan amounts will be
deducted from the Variable Accounts and the Fixed Account on a proportionate
basis, up to the amount available.  We will credit interest monthly on amounts
in the Loan Account at a rate equivalent to an annual effective rate of 4%.

On each policy anniversary, if the amount in the Loan Account exceeds policy
debt, the excess will be transferred from the Loan Account to the Fixed and
Variable Accounts according to your most recent instructions.  If policy debt
exceeds the amount in the Loan Account, an amount equal to such excess will be
transferred from the Fixed and Variable Accounts on a proportionate basis to the
Loan Account.

REPAYMENT - Loans may be repaid at any time prior to lapse of this policy.  An
amount equal to the portion of any loan repaid, but not more than the amount in
the Loan Account, will be transferred from the Loan Account to the Fixed and
Variable Accounts according to your most recent instructions.

Any payment we receive from you while you have a loan will be first considered a
loan repayment, unless you tell us in writing it is a premium payment.

GENERAL PROVISIONS

ENTIRE CONTRACT - This policy is a contract between owner and PM.

This policy, the attached copy of the initial application, any applications for
reinstatement, all subsequent applications to change the policy, any
endorsements or riders, and all additional policy information sections added to
this policy are the entire contract.

Only an authorized officer is permitted to change this contract or extend the
time for paying premiums.
<PAGE>
 
All statements in the application shall, in the absence of fraud, be deemed
representations and not warranties.  PM will not use any statement to contest
this policy or defend a claim on grounds of misrepresentation unless the
statement is in the application.

INCONTESTABILITY - Except for failure to pay premiums, this policy cannot be
contested after the expiration of the following time period:

- - The initial face amount cannot be contested after the policy has been in force
during the insured's lifetime for two years from the policy date; and

- - an increase in face amount cannot be contested after the increased amount has
been in force during the insured's lifetime for two years from its effective
date.

PARTICIPATING - This policy is participating and will share in the surplus
earnings of PM. However, the current dividend scale is zero and it is not
expected that dividends will be paid.  Any dividends that do become payable will
be paid in cash.

JUVENILE INSURED - If an insured's age on the policy date is less than 20, the
insured will be notified at least 60 days prior to attainment of age 20 of the
option to apply for "Nonsmoker" risk status.

This option must be requested in writing and accompanied by satisfactory
evidence of nonsmoking.

SUICIDE EXCLUSION - If the insured dies by suicide, while sane or insane, within
two years of the policy date, no death benefit proceeds will be paid.  Instead,
we will return the sum of the premiums paid, less the sum of any debt, any
withdrawal amounts, and any dividends paid in cash.

If the insured dies by suicide, while sane or insane, within two years of the
effective date of any increase in the face amount, no benefit will be paid with
respect to such increase.  Instead, we will refund the Cost of Insurance Charges
made with respect to that increase.

MISSTATEMENT OF AGE OR SEX - If the insured's age or sex is misstated in the
application, the amount of the death benefit shall be the greater of that which
would be purchased by the most recent Cost of Insurance Charge at the correct
age and sex, or the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit for the correct age and sex.

If the insured's age or sex is misstated in the application, the Accumulated
Value will be modified by recalculating all prior Cost of Insurance charges and
other monthly deductions based on the correct age and sex.

REPORTS - A report will be mailed to you at the end or each policy quarter to
your last known address.  This report will include the following information for
the policy quarter:

- - the Accumulated Value;
<PAGE>
 
- - the Cash Surrender Value;

- - the current death benefit;

- - transactions that occurred during the policy quarter;

- - existing debt;

- - changes in the Guideline Premiums;

- - surrender charges; and

- - any information required by law.

In addition to the above reports, a semi-annual and an annual report will also
be mailed to you. These reports will contain financial statements for the
Separate Account and the designated investment company or companies in which the
Separate Account invests, the latter of which will include a list of the
portfolio securities of the investment company, as required by the Investment
Company Act of 1940.  We will also send any other reports as required by federal
securities law.

POLICY ILLUSTRATIONS - Upon request we will give you an illustration of the
future benefits under this policy based upon both guaranteed and current cost
factor assumptions.  However, if you ask us to do this more than once in any
policy year, we reserve the right to charge you a fee for this service.

BASIS OF VALUES - A detailed statement showing how values are determined has
been filed with the state insurance department.  All values are not less than
the minimums required by the law in the state in which this policy is delivered,
based on the Commissioner's 1980 Standard Ordinary Mortality Table and interest
at the rate of 4%, except for unisex issues which are based on the 1980 CSO
Table B and interest at the rate of 4%.

OWNERSHIP OF ASSETS - We have the exclusive and absolute control of our assets,
including all assets in the Separate Account.

COMPLIANCE - We reserve the right to make any change to the provisions of this
policy to comply with, or give you the benefit of, any federal or state statute,
rule or regulation, including but not limited to requirements for life insurance
contracts under the Internal Revenue Code or any state.

We will provide you with a copy of any such change, and will also file such a
change with the insurance supervisory official of the state in which this policy
is delivered.  You have the right to refuse any such change.

EXCHANGE OF INSURED

BENEFIT - After the first policy year, you may exchange the named insured on
this policy for a new
<PAGE>
 
insured, subject to the following provisions.

EXCHANGE CONDITIONS - Exercise of this exchange will be subject to the following
conditions:

- - the new insured must submit evidence of insurability satisfactory to us;

- - you must make written application for the exchange and return this policy for
  reissue; and

- - you must pay $100 to cover the administrative costs for processing the
  exchange.

A request for an exchange of insured will be subject to the Guideline Premiums
Limitation as defined in the Internal Revenue Code.  Such request will not be
allowed if the resulting Guideline Premiums could cause an amount in excess of
the Net Cash Surrender Value to be distributed from the policy.

The charge of $100 will be deducted from the Accumulated Value in the Fixed
Account and the Variable Accounts in the proportion that each bears to your
Accumulated Value less debt on the effective date of the exchange.

EXCHANGE DATE - The exchange date is the first monthly payment date on or after
the date the exchange conditions are met.

COVERAGE ON NEW INSURED - Coverage on the new insured will become effective on
the exchange date.  Coverage on the current insured will terminate on the day
before the exchange date.

The policy date will not be changed unless the new insured was born after the
policy date.  In that case, the new policy date will be the policy anniversary
on or next following the birth date of the new insured.

The Cost of Insurance Rates for the new insured will be those applicable for the
new insured's age, risk classification, and the policy duration.  Riders on the
new insured will be added only with our consent and subject to our requirements.

The face amount will not be affected by the exchange.  If a different face
amount is desired on the new insured, the Increase or Decrease provision of the
policy can be exercised.

SUICIDE EXCLUSION - If the new insured dies by suicide, while sane or insane,
within two years of the exchange date, no death benefit proceeds will be paid.
Instead, we will return the Net Cash Surrender Value as of the exchange date,
plus the premiums paid since the exchange date, less the sum of any increase in
debt, any withdrawal amounts, and any dividends paid in cash since the exchange
date.

INCONTESTABILITY - Except for failure to pay premiums, this policy cannot be
contested after it has been in force during the new insured's lifetime for two
years from the exchange date.
<PAGE>
 
GENERAL CONDITIONS - Any debt or assignment outstanding against this policy will
not be affected by the exchange.

PAYMENTS

VARIABLE ACCOUNTS - We will pay death benefit proceeds, Net Cash Surrender Value
on surrender, Preferred Withdrawals, Partial Withdrawals, and loan based on
allocations made to the Variable Accounts, and will effect a transfer between
Variable Accounts or from a Variable Account to the Fixed Account within seven
days after we receive all the information needed to process a payment.

However, we may postpone the calculation or payment of such a payment or
transfer of amounts based on investment performance of the Variable Accounts if:

The New York Stock Exchange is closed on other than customary weekend and
holiday closings or trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted as
determined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC); or

An emergency exists, as determined by the SEC, as a result of which disposal of
securities is not reasonably practicable to determine the value of the Account
assets; or

The SEC by order permits postponement for the protection of policy owners.

FIXED ACCOUNT - As to amounts allocated to the Fixed Account, we may defer
payment of any Net Cash Surrender Value on surrender, Preferred Withdrawals,
Partial Withdrawals, or loan amounts or defer transfers from the Fixed Account
for up to six months after we receive a request for it.  We will allow interest,
at a rate of at least 4% annually, on any Net Cash Surrender Value or withdrawal
benefit derived from the Fixed Account that we defer for 30 days or more.

SEPARATE ACCOUNT PROVISIONS

SEPARATE ACCOUNT - We established the Separate Account and maintain it under the
laws of California.  The Separate Account is divided into subaccounts, called
Variable Accounts.  Realized and unrealized gains and losses from the assets of
each Variable Account are credited or charged against it without regard to our
other income, gains, or losses.  Assets may be put in our Separate Account to
support this policy and other variable life insurance policies.  Assets may be
put in our Separate Account for other purposes, but not to support contracts or
policies other than variable life contracts of policies.

The assets of our Separate Account are our property.  The portion of its assets
equal to the reserves and other policy liabilities with respect to our Separate
Account will not be chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other
business we conduct.  We may transfer assets of a Variable Account in excess of
the reserves and other liabilities with respect to that account to another
Variable Account or to our general account.  All obligations arising under the
policy are general corporate obligations of Pacific Mutual.  We do not hold
ourselves out to be trustees of the Separate Account
<PAGE>
 
assets.

VARIABLE ACCOUNTS - Each Variable Account may invest its assets in a separate
class of shares of a designated investment company or companies.  The Variable
Accounts of our Separate Account that were available for your initial
allocations, are shown on the Policy Specifications pages.  The allocations that
you initially choose are shown on the copy of the application attached to this
Policy. From time to time we may make other Variable Accounts available to you.
We will provide you with written notice of all material details including
investment objectives and all charges.

We reserve the right, subject to compliance with the law then in effect, to:

- - change or add designated investment companies;

- - add, remove or combine Variable Accounts;

- - add, delete or make substitutions for the securities that are held or
  purchased by the Separate Account or any Variable Account;

- - register or deregister the Separate Account under the Investment Company Act
  of 1940;

- - operate the Separate Account as a managed investment company;

- - combine the assets of the Separate Account with other separate accounts of PM
  or an affiliate thereof;

- - run any Variable Account under the direction of a committee, board, or other
  group;

- - restrict or eliminate any voting rights of policy owners with respect to the
Separate Account, or other persons who have voting rights as to any Variable
Account.  Also, unless required by law or regulation, an investment policy may
not be changed without our consent; and

- - comply with law.

If any of these changes result in a material change in the underlying
investments of a Variable Account of our Separate Account, we will notify you of
such change.

We will not change the investment policy of the Separate Account without the
approval of the Insurance Commissioner in the state of California and without
following the filing and other procedures established by insurance regulators of
the state of issue, with whom the approval process if on file.

ANNUAL RENEWABLE AND CONVERTIBLE TERM RIDER

COVERED PERSON - As used in this rider, the term "Covered Person" means any of
the individuals covered under this rider on the Policy Date, Covered Persons may
be deleted from or, with evidence of insurability, added to this rider.  When
this occurs, we will give you a revised Policy Specifications page.

BENEFIT AMOUNT - The Benefit Amount is shown on the Policy Specifications pages
for each Covered Person.

Any reduction in Benefit Amount requested after the policy issue date for any
year may require a reduction in Benefit Amounts for future years.  Any decrease
in the face amount of the policy to which this rider is attached may require a
decrease in the Benefit Amounts under this rider.

We will pay the Benefit Amount for this rider when we receive proof that the
death of a Covered Person occurred while this rider was in effect.

MORTALITY CHARGES - The Mortality Charges for this rider are calculated
separately for each Covered Person.  The monthly Mortality Charge for any
Covered Person is equal to the product of the applicable monthly cost of
insurance rate times the Benefit Amount for such Covered Person.

The cost of insurance rates are based on the Covered Person's attained age, risk
classification, and duration applicable to this rider.  The current monthly cost
of insurance rates will be determined by the company.  These rates will not
exceed the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates shown on the
Policy Specifications pages.

RENEWAL - Coverage under this rider will be automatically renewed on each
Covered Person on each monthly payment date for which there is an applicable
Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rate shown on the Policy
Specifications pages.

CONVERSION - While this rider is in effect or upon termination of this policy by
death of the insured, the Benefit Amount for this rider may be converted to a
new policy on any Covered Person's life at any time before such Covered Person
becomes age 65.  This rider may be converted during the first two years it is in
effect regardless of the Covered Person's age.  The Covered Person's Benefit
Amount for this rider will be cancelled on the new policy's issue date.

The amount of insurance under the new policy will be the same as the Covered
Person's Benefit Amount under this rider.  A lower amount may be selected as
long as it is not less than our regular minimum limit at the time of conversion.

The new policy may be on the whole life or any higher premium plan we regularly
issue at the time of conversion.  It will be issued in the same underwriting
class and contain the same restrictions, if any, as this rider.  It will be
issued at our published rates which apply at the Covered Person's age on the new
policy's issue date.
<PAGE>
 
Riders will not be included in the new policy without our consent at the time.

If we are waiving charges for this rider at the Covered Person's age 65, and if
this rider is converted to a whole life policy in the manner described above, we
will waive premiums under the new policy while total disability continues
without interruption.

EFFECTIVE DATE - This rider is effective on the policy date unless otherwise
stated.  This rider will terminate:

- - on your written request; or

- - on lapse or termination of this policy.

GENERAL CONDITIONS - This rider is part of the policy to which it is attached.
As applied to this rider, the periods stated in this policy's Incontestability

WAIVER OF CHARGES RIDER

BENEFIT - Subject to this rider's terms, we will waive any monthly Cost of
Insurance Charges, any monthly Administrative Charges and any monthly cost of
any rider benefits for this policy which falls due while the insured is totally
disabled.

We will not waive any charges which fall due more than one year before we
receive proof of total disability.  We will not waive any charges which fall due
before the insured's age 5.  If total disability begins during the grace period
for an unpaid premium, that premium must be paid in order to establish a valid
claim under this rider.

TOTAL DISABILITY - Total disability means a condition which:

- - results from bodily injury accidentally sustained or disease which first
  manifests itself while this rider is in effect;
- - occurs before the insured's age 60;
- - lasts continuously for at least 3 months; and, either
- - stops the insured from performing the substantial and material duties of the
  job; or
- - includes the insured's total and irrecoverable loss of sight of both eyes or
  use of two hands, two feet or one hand and one foot.

During the first 24 months of disability, "the job" means the insured's
occupation for compensation or profit at the time total disability began.  After
that, "the job" means any one for which the insured is or becomes reasonably
fitted by education, training or experience.  If the insured is a student when
disability begins, "the job" means attending school.

NOTICE OF DISABILITY CLAIM - We must receive notice of the insured's total
disability: at our home office; on forms we provide; during the insured's
lifetime; and while the insured is disabled.

If it is not reasonably possible for you to give us notice within the time
limits above, you must give us notice within one year from the time total
disability ends.

PROOF OF DISABILITY - Before we pay a benefit, we must receive proof of total
disability.  From time to time after the insured is disabled, we may require
proof of continuing disability.  This proof may include a medical exam by a
physician we select and pay.  After two years of disability, we will not require
proof of total disability more often than once a year.  We will not require
proof after the insured's age 70.

WAR SERVICE NOT COVERED - Disability occurring in a period during which the
insured is in the armed forces of any country at war (declared or not) is not
covered under this rider.  No insurance charges for this rider will be made for
such a period; if any are made we will reverse them.

INSURANCE CHARGES - The monthly Insurance Charge for this rider is based on the
total net amount at risk under the policy including any Annual Renewable
Convertible Term (ART) rider.
<PAGE>
 
The monthly Insurance Charge for the base policy is (1) multiplied by the result
of (2) minus (3), where:

- -(1) is the applicable monthly Waiver of Charges Rate;
- -(2) is the death benefit at the beginning of the policy month divided by
     1.004074; and
- -(3) is the Accumulated Value at the beginning of the policy month before the
     Monthly Deduction due.

The monthly Insurance Charge for any ART rider is equal to the applicable
monthly Waiver of Charges Rate multiplied by the Benefit amount of any such ART
rider.

The Waiver of Charges Rates are shown on the Policy Specifications pages.

EFFECTIVE DATE - This rider is effective on the policy date unless otherwise
stated.  This rider will terminate (without affecting any claim for disability
occurring before such termination):

- - on your written request; or
- - on lapse or termination of this policy; or
- - when the insured becomes age 60.

INCONTESTABILITY - This rider will be incontestable after it has been in force
for two years, excluding any period the insured is disabled.

GENERAL CONDITIONS - This rider is part of the policy to which it is attached.
All terms of the policy which do not conflict with this rider's terms apply to
this rider.

Added Protection Benefit Rider
<PAGE>
 
                           ADDED PROTECTION BENEFIT

INSURED - As used in this benefit, "Insured" means the individual covered under
this benefit.  The Insured must be the same individual covered under the base
policy.

COVERAGE AMOUNT - The Coverage Amount provided by this benefit in any policy
year is the amount you specified in the application for that policy year.  This
Coverage Amount is also shown in the Policy Specifications pages:  such amount
may be level or varying by policy year.

Subject to our approval, you may change the Coverage Amount for any policy year
if you request such change in writing during the lifetime of the insured.  Such
change requests may be made not more than once per policy year.  You must
provide evidence of insurability satisfactory to us before any request for an
increase in Coverage Amount becomes effective.  An Administrative Charge of $100
will be deducted from the base policy's Accumulated Value on the effective date
of any such increase in Coverage Amount.  The effective date of the increase
will be the first monthly payment date on or following the date all applicable
conditions are met.

Any decrease in Coverage Amount which you request for any policy year will
result in equivalent decreases in Coverage Amounts for future policy years.  Any
decrease will first be applied against the most recent increase, if any, and
then against successively earlier increases, if any, and finally against the
original Coverage Amount.  The effective date of the decrease will be the first
monthly payment date on or following the date the written request is received by
us.

COST OF INSURANCE CHARGE - The monthly Cost of Insurance Charge is calculated
separately for this benefit.  The Cost of Insurance Charge for any policy year
is equal to the product of (1) times the excess of (2) over (3) where:

     (1) is the applicable monthly Cost of Insurance Rate;

     (2) is the Coverage Amount divided by 1.004074; and

     (3) is equal to the greater of zero or the excess of (4) over (5) where:

     (4) is the Accumulated Value at the beginning of each policy month before
         the Monthly Deduction due as defined in this policy; and

     (5) is the face amount of the base policy, including any face amount
         increase effective before this benefit effective date, divided by
         1.004074.

COST OF INSURANCE RATES - The Cost of Insurance Rates vary by age, benefit
duration, and risk classification and are subject to change by us at any time,
but will not exceed the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates for
this benefit shown in the Policy Specifications pages.  Any such change will be
made without regard to any change in the health of the Insured.

The Cost of Insurance Rates used to calculate the Cost of Insurance Charges for
an increase in
<PAGE>
 
coverage necessary to meet the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit will be the same
as those used for this benefit.  However, should an increase in the base face
amount occur after this benefit's effective date, the Cost of Insurance Rates
used for an increase in coverage necessary to meet the Guideline Minimum Death
Benefit will be the same as those applicable to the most recent increase in face
amount which has not been eliminated through the Decrease provision.

DEATH BENEFIT - The death benefit of the policy to which this benefit is
attached is modified to include the Coverage Amount under this benefit.  It is
now as follows:

Option A - The death benefit equals the greater of (1) or (2) where:

     (1)  is the base policy face amount plus this benefit Coverage Amount; and

     (2)  is the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit; or

Option B - The death benefit equals the greater of (1) or (2) where:

     (1) is the base policy face amount plus this benefit Coverage Amount plus
the Accumulated Value on the date of death; and

     (2) is the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit

DECREASE - The Decrease provision of the policy to which this benefit is
attached is modified to include this benefit.  For the purpose of the Decrease
provision, the Added Protection Benefit is treated the same way as any other
increase in the base policy face amount.  This benefit will always be decreased
or eliminated before any decrease is applied to the original base policy face
amount. For further details, please see the Decrease provision of your contract.

WITHDRAWALS - The Withdrawals provision of the policy, to which this benefit is
attached, is modified to include this benefit.  For the purpose of the
Withdrawals provision, the Added Protection Benefit is treated the same as any
other increase in the base policy face amount.  This benefit will always be
decreased or eliminated before any decrease is applied to the original base
policy face amount.  For further details, please see the Withdrawals provision
of contract.

EFFECTIVE DATE - This benefit is effective on the policy date unless otherwise
notified.

TERMINATION - it will terminate on the earliest of:

     -  your written request, or

     -  lapse of this policy; or

     -  termination of this policy.

GENERAL CONDITIONS - This benefit is part of the policy to which it is attached.
As applied to this
<PAGE>
 
benefit, the periods stated in this policy's Incontestability and Suicide
provisions will start with this benefit's effective date.  This will also apply
to any increase in the Coverage Amount under this benefit.  All terms of this
policy which do not conflict with this benefit's terms apply to this benefit.

Accelerated Living Benefit Rider
<PAGE>
 
THIS RIDER IS ATTACHED TO AND MADE PART OF YOUR POLICY.

ISSUE DATE:  ______________________________________________

POLICY NUMBER:  ______________________________________________

AN ACCELERATED BENEFIT RECEIVED UNDER THIS RIDER MAY BE TAXABLE.  YOU SHOULD
CONSULT YOUR PERSONAL TAX ADVISOR PRIOR TO REQUESTING THIS BENEFIT.

ANY BENEFIT RECEIVED UNDER THIS RIDER MAY IMPACT YOUR ELIGIBILITY FOR MEDICAID
OR OTHER GOVERNMENT BENEFITS.

This rider is not meant to cause involuntary access to proceeds ultimately
payable to the beneficiary. Therefore, this benefit is not available:

a) if either the owner or insured is required by law to use this benefit to meet
the claims of creditors, whether in bankruptcy or otherwise; or

b) if either the owner or insured is required by a government agency to use this
benefit in order to apply for, obtain or otherwise keep a government benefit or
entitlement.

Accelerated Benefit

The owner may elect to receive, while the insured is living, a portion of the
policy's proceeds.  We will pay an Accelerated Benefit if an insured has been
diagnosed with a noncorrectable terminal illness and has a life expectancy of 6
months or less.

Definitions

Accelerated Benefit Payment is the actual dollar amount of benefit you will
receive under this rider.

Requested Portion is the amount of the policy proceeds the owner requests.  The
Requested Portion divided by the Eligible Coverage will be called the Requested
Percentage.  The Requested Portion cannot exceed the lesser of a) 50% of the
Eligible Coverage, or b) $250,000 for all policies in force with us.

Eligible Coverage is the portion of the policy proceeds which will qualify for
determining the Accelerated Benefit under this rider.

The Eligible Coverage includes:

- - the base policy death benefit;

- - any paid-up additions; and
<PAGE>
 
- - any term rider, term policy or term coverage on the primary insured that has
at least two years of coverage remaining.  For coverage amounts that vary by
year, the lowest coverage amount during the remaining two year period will be
used.

- - Survivor Life policies will be eligible for acceleration only after the death
of the first insured and the surviving insured has been diagnosed as terminally
ill.  Any term rider, term policy or term coverage on the surviving insured that
has a least two years of coverage remaining, will be eligible for acceleration.
For coverage amounts that vary by year, the lowest coverage amount during the
remaining two year period will be used.

Eligible Coverage does not include:

- - any insurance provided under the policy on the life of someone other than the
insured;

- - the face amount of any scheduled increase(s) in insurance as provided by an
additional benefit rider during the 12 month period after the date the
accelerated payment is requested;

- - the amount of any accidental death benefit.

The minimum Accelerated Benefit Payment amount is $500.  The Accelerated Benefit
will be paid either in a lump sum or any other payment plan available at the
time of payment.  WE WILL PAY THE ACCELERATED BENEFIT AMOUNT ONLY ONCE PER
INSURED.  If a settlement option is selected and the insured dies before all
payments are made, the remaining amount will be paid to the beneficiary.

Accelerated Benefit Payment

The Accelerated Benefit Payment will be determined as of the date we approve
your written request. Your Accelerated Benefit Payment will equal the Requested
Portion less the following adjustments:

1. An actuarial discount will apply to the Requested Portion.  This discount
reflects the early payment of the Requested Portion of your policy.  The
discount will be based on an annual interest rate declared by us and which is in
effect as of the date we approve your written request.

2. If there is a policy loan outstanding on your policy as of the date we
approve your written request, we will reduce the Requested Portion in order to
repay a portion of the outstanding policy loan equal to the Requested Percentage
times the outstanding loan.

3. A reduction to the Requested Portion will be applied to any premiums due and
unpaid if the policy has entered the Grace Period at the time we approve your
request.

4. An administrative charge not to exceed $150.

We will refund the amounts discussed in 1. and 4. above should the death of the
insured occur within 30 days of the Accelerated Benefit Payment.
<PAGE>
 
Impact on Policy

After an Accelerated Benefit Payment is made, the policy and all riders will
remain in force subject to the following adjustments.  The policy death benefit,
any cash value, any paid-up additions, Accumulated Value, if any, and any term
insurance eligible to be accelerated under this rider, and any required premium
payments will be reduced by the Requested Percentage.  Any outstanding policy
loan will be reduced as specified in the Accelerated Benefit Payment Section.

Any adjustment in Accumulated Value will be allocated to the Fixed Account and
Variable Accounts on a prorata basis.  Cost of Insurance Charges will be
adjusted to reflect the reduction in the death benefit.

Eligibility

The following conditions must be met prior to any Accelerated Benefit Payment:

- - The policy must be in force on the date the Accelerated Benefit Payment is
approved.  If you have a term insurance policy or your policy is on Extended
Term, a minimum period of two years of coverage must be remaining in order to
qualify for an Accelerated Benefit Payment.

- - We must receive written proof satisfactory to us that the insured's or for
Survivor Life policies the surviving insured's life expectancy is 6 months or
less from the date of the written request.  Proof will include the certification
by a licensed physician, who is not yourself or a member of your family.  Such
proof should include documentation supported by clinical, radiological or
laboratory evidence of the condition.  We reserve the right to obtain a second
medical opinion from a physician of our choice at our expense.

- - Owner or legal guardian must apply in writing for this benefit on a form
supplied by us.

- - Written consent from any irrevocable beneficiary is required in order to apply
for accelerated benefits.

- - Written consent from any assignee must be obtained.

Incontestability

This rider is subject to the Incontestability provision of the base policy to
which it is attached.

Effective Date

This rider is effective on the issue date specified.

General Provisions.  There will be an administrative charge, not to exceed $150,
which will be deducted from the Accelerated Benefit.
<PAGE>
 
This rider will terminate:

- - on your written request;

- - on lapse or termination of the policy; or

- - when an Accelerated Benefit is paid under this rider.

any election and before the voting begins.

       SEC. 7.  Quorum.  - The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of
five percent (5%) of the members entitled to vote at any meeting shall
constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.  The members present at a

any member or his proxy, the inspector or inspectors shall make a report in
writing of any challenge or question or matter determined by them and execute a
certificate of any fact found by them.  If there be three inspectors of
election, the decision, act or certificate of a majority shall be effective in
all aspects as the decision, act or certificate of all, an shall be final and
conclusive as to all matters passed upon and determined.  If there be one
inspector of election, his decision, act or certificate shall be final and

may be filled by appointment made by the board of directors in advance of the
convening of the meeting, or at the meeting by the person or officer acting as

Fund Participation Agreement

<PAGE>
 
FUND PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT

This AGREEMENT is made this 6th day of November, 1992, by and between Pacific
Mutual Life Insurance Company (the "Company"), a life insurance company
domiciled in California, on its behalf and on behalf of the segregated asset
accounts of the Company listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement (the "Separate
Accounts"); Pacific Select Fund (the "Fund"), a Massachusetts business trust;
and Pacific Equities Network ("Distributor"), a California corporation.

WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, the Fund is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") as an open-end management investment company under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act") and the Fund is authorized to issue
separate classes of shares of beneficial interests ("shares"), each representing
an interest in a separate portfolio of assets known as a "series" and each
series has its own investment objective, policies, and limitations; and

WHEREAS, the Fund is available to offer shares of one or more of its series to
separate accounts of insurance companies that fund variable life insurance
policies and variable annuity contracts ("Variable Contracts") and to serve as
an investment medium for Variable Contracts offered by insurance companies that
have entered into participation agreements substantially similar to this
agreement ("Participating Insurance Companies"), and the Fund is currently
comprised of nine separate series, and other series may be established in the
future; and

WHEREAS, the Fund has obtained an order from the SEC granting Participating
Insurance Companies, separate accounts funding Variable Contracts of
Participating Insurance Companies, and the Fund exemptions from the provisions
of sections 9(a), 13(a), 15(a), and 15(b) of the 1940 Act and paragraph (b)(15)
of Rule 6e-3(T) under the 1940 Act, to the extent necessary to permit such
persons to rely on the exemptive relief provided under paragraph (b)(15) of Rule
6e-3(T), even though shares of the Fund may be offered to and held by separate
accounts funding variable annuity contracts or scheduled or flexible premium
variable life insurance contracts of both affiliated and unaffiliated life
insurance companies (the "Shared Funding Exemptive Order"); and

WHEREAS, the Distributor is registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("1934 Act"), and is a member in
good standing of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD");
and

WHEREAS, to the extent permitted by applicable insurance laws and regulations,
the Company wishes to purchase shares of one or more of the Fund's series on
behalf of its Separate Accounts to serve as an investment medium for Variable
Contracts funded by the Separate Accounts, and the Distributor is authorized to
sell shares of the Fund's series;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises and
covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I.    Sale of Fund Shares

                                       1
<PAGE>
 
1.1.  The Distributor agrees to sell to the Company those shares of the series
offered and made available by the Fund and identified on Exhibit B ("Series")
that the Company orders on behalf of its Separate Accounts, and agrees to
execute such orders on each day on which the Fund calculates its net asset value
pursuant to rules of the SEC ("business day") at the net asset value next
computed after receipt and acceptance by the Fund or its agent of the order for
the shares of the Fund.

1.2.  The Fund agrees to make available on each business day shares of the
Series for purchase at the applicable net asset value per share by the Company
on behalf of its Separate Accounts' provided, however, that the Board of
Trustees of the Fund may refuse to sell shares of any Series to any person, or
suspend or terminate the offering of shares of any Series, if such action is
required by law or by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction or is, in the
sole discretion of the Trustees, acting in good faith and in light of the
Trustees' fiduciary duties under applicable law, necessary in the best interests
of the shareholders of any Series.

1.3.  The Fund and the Distributor agree that shares of the Series of the Fund
will be sold only to Participating Insurance Companies, their separate accounts,
and other persons consistent with each Series being adequately diversified
pursuant to Section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
("Code") and the regulations thereunder.  No shares of any Series will be sold
directly to the general public.

1.4.  The Fund and the Distributor will not sell shares of the Series to any
insurance company or separate account unless an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as this Agreement is in effect to govern such sales.

1.5.  Upon receipt of a request for redemption in proper form from the Company,
the Fund agrees to redeem any full or fractional shares of the Series held by
the Company, ordinarily executing such requests on each business day at the net
asset value next computed after receipt and acceptance by the Fund or its agent
of the request for redemption, except that the Fund reserves the right to
suspend the right of redemption, consistent with Section 22(e) of the 1940 Act
and any rules thereunder. Such redemption shall be paid consistent with
applicable rules of the SEC and procedures and policies of the Fund as described
in the current prospectus.

1.6.  The Company agrees to purchase and redeem the shares of each Series in
accordance with the provisions of the current prospectus for the Fund.

1.7.  The Company shall pay for shares of the Series on the same day that it
places an order to purchase shares of the Series.  Payment shall be in federal
funds transmitted by wire.

1.8.  Issuance and transfer of shares of the Series will be by book entry only
unless otherwise agreed by the Fund.  Stock certificates will not be issued to
the Company or the Separate Accounts unless otherwise agreed by the Fund.
Shares ordered from the Fund will be recorded in an appropriate title for the
Separate Accounts or the appropriate subaccounts of the Separate Accounts.

1.9.  The Fund shall promptly furnish notice (by wire or telephone, followed by
written confirmation) to the Company of any income dividends or capital gain
distributions payable on the

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
shares of the Series.  The Company hereby elects to reinvest in the Series all
such dividends and distributions as are payable on a Series' shares and to
receive such dividends and distributions in additional shares of that Series.
The Company reserves the right to revoke this election in writing and to receive
all such dividends and distributions in cash.  The Fund shall notify the Company
of the number of shares so issued as payment of such dividends and
distributions.

1.10.  The Fund shall instruct its recordkeeping agent to advise the Company on
each business day of the net asset value per share for each Series as soon as
reasonably practical after the net asset value per share is calculated.

ARTICLE II.    Representations and Warranties

2.1.  The Company represents and warrants that it is an insurance company duly
organized and in good standing under applicable law and that it is taxed as an
insurance company under Subchapter L of the Code.

2.2.  The Company represents and warrants that it has legally and validly
established each of the Separate Accounts as a segregated asset account under
the ________________________ Insurance Code, and that each of the Separate
Accounts is a validly existing segregated asset account under applicable federal
and state law.

2.3.  The Company represents and warrants that the Variable Contracts issued by
the Company or interests in the Separate Accounts under such Variable Contracts
(1) are or, prior to issuance, will be registered as securities under the
Securities Act of 1933 ("1933 Act") or, alternatively (2) are not registered
because they are properly exempt from registration under the 1933 Act or will be
offered exclusively in transactions that are properly exempt from registration
under the 1933 Act.

2.4.  The Company represents and warrants that each of the Separate Accounts (1)
has been registered as a unit investment trust in accordance with the provisions
of the 1940 Act or, alternatively (2) has not been registered in proper reliance

2.5.  The Company represents that it believes, in good faith, that the Variable
Contracts issued by the Company are currently treated as annuity contracts or
life insurance policies (which may include modified endowment contracts),
whichever is appropriate, under applicable provisions of the Code.

2.6.  The Company represents and warrants that any of its Separate Accounts that
fund variable life insurance contracts and that are registered with the SEC as
investment companies rely on the exemptions provided by Rule 6e-3(T), or any
successor thereto, and not on Rule 6e-2 under the 1940 Act.

2.7.  The Fund represents and warrants that it is duly organized as a business
trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and is in good
standing under applicable law.

ARTICLE III.    General Duties

3.1.  The Fund shall take all such actions as are necessary to permit the sale
of the shares of each Series to the Separate Accounts, including maintaining its
registration as an investment company under the 1940 Act, and registering the
shares of the Series sold to the Separate Accounts under the 1933 Act for so
long as required by applicable law.  The Fund shall amend its Registration
Statement filed with the SEC under the 1933 Act and the 1940 Act from time to
time as required in order to effect the continuous offering of the shares of the
Series.  The Fund shall register and qualify the shares for sale in accordance
with the laws of the various states to the extent deemed necessary by the Fund
or the Distributor.

3.2.  The Fund shall make every effort to maintain qualification of each Series
as a Regulated Investment Company under Subchapter M of the Code (or any
successor or similar provision) and shall notify the Company immediately upon
having a reasonable basis for believing that a Series has ceased to so qualify
or that it might not so qualify in the future.

3.3.  The Fund shall make every effort to enable each Series to comply with the
diversification provisions of Section 817(h) of the Code and the regulations
issued thereunder relating to the diversification requirements for variable life
insurance policies and variable annuity contracts and any prospective amendments
or other modifications to Section 817 or regulations thereunder, and shall
notify the Company immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that
any Series has ceased to comply.

3.4.  The Fund shall be entitled to receive and act upon advice of its General
Counsel or its outside counsel in meeting the requirements specified in Sections
3.2 and 3.3 hereof.

3.5  The Company shall take all such actions as are necessary under applicable
federal and state law to permit the sale of the Variable Contracts issued by the
Company, including registering each Separate Account as an investment company to
the extent required under the 1940 Act, and registering the Variable Contracts
or interests in the Separate Accounts under the Variable Contracts to the extent
required under the 1933 Act, and obtaining all necessary approvals to offer the
Variable Contracts from state insurance commissioners.

3.6.  The Company shall make every effort to maintain the treatment of the
Variable Contracts issued

                                       4
<PAGE>
 
by the Company as annuity contracts or life insurance policies, whichever is
appropriate, under applicable provisions of the Code, and shall notify the Fund
and the Distributor immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing
that such Variable Contracts have ceased to be so treated or that they might not
be so treated in the future.

3.7.  The Company shall offer and sell the Variable Contracts issued by the
Company in accordance with applicable provisions of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act,
the 1940 Act, the NASD Rules of Fair Practice, and state law respecting the
offering of variable life insurance policies and variable annuity contracts.

3.8.  The Distributor shall sell and distribute the shares of the Series of the
Fund in accordance with the applicable provisions of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act,
the 1940 Act, the NASD Rules of Fair Practice, and state law.

3.9.  A majority of the Board of Trustees of the Fund shall consist of persons
who are not "interested persons" of the Fund ("disinterested Trustees"), as
defined by Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, except that if this provision of
this Section 3.9 is not met by reason of the death, disqualification, or bona
fide resignation of any Trustee or Trustees, then the operation of this
provision shall be suspended (a) for a period of 45 days if the vacancy or
vacancies may be filled by the Fund's Board; (b) for a period of 60 days if a
vote of shareholders is required to fill the vacancy or vacancies; or (c) for
such longer period as the SEC may prescribe by order upon application.

3.10.  The Company agrees to provide, as promptly as possible, notice to the
Fund and to the Distributor if the Company has reason to know about a meeting of
some or all of the owners of the Variable Contracts or shareholders of the Fund,
where the agenda or purpose of the meeting relates, in whole or in part, to the
Fund and that has not been called by the Fund's Board of Trustees (and which
shall not include a vote of Variable Contract Owners having an interest in a
Separate Account to substitute shares of another investment company for
corresponding shares of the Fund or a Series, as described in Section 9(e) and
to which the notice provision of Section 9.2 shall apply).  In such an event,
the Company agrees to distribute proxy statements and any additional
solicitation materials upon the request of the Fund or the Distributor to the
owners of the Variable Contracts issued by the Company at least 30 days prior to
the meeting.  The Company further agrees that it shall take no action, directly
or indirectly, in furtherance of shareholders of the Fund or Contract Owners
taking any action with respect to the Fund by written consent and without a
meeting.

3.11.  Each party hereto shall cooperate with each other party and all
appropriate governmental authorities having jurisdiction (including, without

such authorities reasonable access to its books and records in connection with
any investigation or inquiry relating to this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby.

ARTICLE IV.  Potential Conflicts

4.1.  The Fund's Board of Trustees shall monitor the Fund for the existence of
any material irreconcilable conflict (1) between the interests of owners of
variable annuity contracts and variable

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
life insurance policies, and (2) between the interests of owners of Variable
Contracts ("Variable Contract Owners") issued by different Participating
Insurance Companies that invest in the Fund. An irreconcilable material conflict
may arise for a variety of reasons, including:  (a) an action by any state
insurance regulatory authority; (b) a change in applicable federal or state
insurance, tax, or securities laws or regulations, or a public ruling, private
letter ruling, no-action or interpretive letter, or any similar action by
insurance, tax, or securities regulatory authorities; (c) an administrative or
judicial decision in any relevant proceeding; (d) the manner in which the
investments of the Fund or any Series are being managed; or (e) a decision by a
Participating Insurance Company to disregard the voting instructions of Variable
Contract Owners.

4.2.  The Company agrees that it shall be responsible for reporting any
potential or existing conflicts to the Fund's Board of Trustees.  The Company
will be responsible for assisting the Board of Trustees of the Fund in carrying
out its responsibilities under this agreement, by providing the Board with all
information reasonably necessary for the Board to consider any issues raised.
This includes, but is not limited to, an obligation by the Company to inform the
Board whenever Variable Contract Owner voting instructions are disregarded.  The
Company shall carry out its responsibility under this Section 4.2 with a view
only to the interests of the Variable Contract Owners.

4.3.  The Company agrees that in the event that it is determined by a majority
of the Board of Trustees of the Fund or a majority of the Fund's disinterested
Trustees that a material irreconcilable conflict exists, the Company shall, to
the extent reasonably practicable (as determined by a majority of the
disinterested Trustees of the Board of the Fund), take whatever steps are
necessary to eliminate the irreconcilable material conflict, including: (1)
withdrawing the assets allocable to some or all of the Separate Accounts from
the Fund or any Series and reinvesting such assets in a different investment
medium, which may include another series of the Fund, or submitting the question
of whether such segregation should be implemented to a vote of all affected
Variable Contract Owners and, as appropriate, segregating the assets of any
appropriate group (i.e., Contract Owners of Variable Contracts issued by one or
more Participating Insurance Companies) that votes in favor of such segregation,
or offering to the affected Variable Contract Owners the option of making such a
change; and (2) establishing a new registered management investment company or
managed separate account.  If a material irreconcilable conflict arises because
of the Company's decision to disregard Variable Contract Owners' voting
instructions and that decision represents a minority position or would preclude
a majority vote, the Company shall be required, at the Fund's election, to
withdraw the Separate Accounts' investment in the Fund, and no charge or penalty
will be imposed as a result of such withdrawal.  The Fund shall neither be
required to bear the costs of remedial actions taken to remedy a material
irreconcilable conflict nor shall it be requested to pay a higher investment
advisory fee for the sole purpose of covering such costs.  In addition, no
Variable Contract Owner shall be required directly or indirectly to bear the
direct or indirect costs of remedial actions taken to remedy a material
irreconcilable conflict.  A new funding medium for any Variable Contract need
not be established pursuant to this Section 4.3, if an offer to do so has been
declined by vote of a majority of Variable Contract Owners materially adversely
affected by the irreconcilable material conflict.  All reports received by the
Fund's Board of Trustees of potential or existing conflicts, and all Board
action with regard to determining the existence of a conflict, notifying
Participating Insurance Companies and the Fund's investment adviser of a
conflict, and determining whether any proposed action adequately remedies a
conflict, shall be properly recorded

                                       6
<PAGE>
 
in the minutes of the Board of Trustees of the Fund or other appropriate
records, and such minutes or other records shall be made available to the SEC
upon request.  The Company and the Fund shall carry out their responsibilities
under this Section 4.3 with a view only to the interests of the Variable
Contract Owners.

4.4.  The Board of Trustees of the Fund shall promptly notify the Company in
writing of its determination of the existence of an irreconcilable material
conflict and its implications.

ARTICLE V.    Prospectuses and Proxy Statements; Voting

5.1.  The Company shall distribute such prospectuses, proxy statements and
periodic reports of the Fund to the owners of Variable Contracts issued by the
Company as required to be distributed to such Variable Contract Owners under
applicable federal or state law.

5.2.  The Distributor shall provide the Company with as many copies of the
current prospectus of the Fund as the Company may reasonably request.  If
requested by the Company in lieu thereof, the Fund shall provide such
documentation (including a final copy of the Fund's prospectus as set in type or
in camera-ready copy) and other assistance as is reasonably necessary in order
for the Company to print together in one document the current prospectus for the
Variable Contracts issued by the Company and the current prospectus for the
Fund.  The Fund shall bear the expense of printing copies of its current
prospectus that will be distributed to existing Variable Contract Owners, and
the Company shall bear the expense of printing copies of the Fund's prospectus
that are used in connection with offering the Variable Contracts issued by the
Company.

5.3.  The Fund and the Distributor shall provide (1) at the Fund's expense, one
copy of the Fund's current Statement of Additional Information ("SAI") to the
Company and to any owner of a Variable Contract issued by the Company who
requests such SAI, (2) at the Company's expense, such additional copies of the
Fund's current SAI as the Company shall reasonably request and that the Company
shall require in accordance with applicable law in connection with offering the
Variable Contracts issued by the Company.

5.4.  The Fund, at its expense, shall provide the Company with copies of its
proxy material, periodic reports to shareholders and other communications to
shareholders in such quantity as the Company shall reasonably require for
purposes of distributing to owners of Variable Contracts issued by the Company.
The Fund, at the Company's expense, shall provide the Company with copies of its
periodic reports to shareholders and other communications to shareholders in
such quantity as the Company shall reasonably request for use in connection with
offering the Variable Contracts issued by the Company.  If requested by the
Company in lieu thereof, the Fund shall provide such documentation (including a
final copy of the Fund's proxy materials, periodic reports to shareholders and
other communications to shareholders, as set in type or in camera-ready copy)
and other assistance as reasonably necessary in order for the Company to print
such shareholder communications for distribution to owners of Variable Contracts
issued by the Company.

5.5.  For so long as the SEC interprets the 1940 Act to require pass-through
voting by Participating Insurance Companies whose Separate Accounts are
registered as investment companies under the

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
1940 Act, the Company shall vote shares of each Series of the Fund held in a
Separate Account or a subaccount thereof, whether or not registered under the
1940 Act, at regular and special meetings of the Fund in accordance with
instructions timely received by the Company (or its designated agent) from
owners of Variable Contracts funded by such Separate Account or subaccount
thereof having a voting interest in the Series.  The Company shall vote shares
of a Series of the Fund held in a Separate Account or a subaccount thereof that
are attributable to the Variable Contracts as to which no timely instructions
are received, as well as shares held in such Separate Account or subaccount
thereof that are not attributable to the Variable Contracts and owned
beneficially by the Company (resulting from charges against the Variable
Contracts or otherwise), in the same proportion as the votes cast by owners of
the Variable Contracts funded by that Separate Account or subaccount thereof
having a voting interest in the Series from whom instructions have been timely
received.  The Company shall vote shares of each Series of the Fund held in its
general account, if any, in the same proportion as the votes cast with respect
to shares of the Series held in all Separate Accounts of the Company or
subaccounts thereof, in the aggregate.

5.6.  The Fund shall disclose in its prospectus that (1) shares of the Series of
the Fund are offered to affiliated or unaffiliated insurance company separate
accounts which fund both annuity and life insurance contracts, (2) due to
differences in tax treatment or other considerations, the interests of various
Variable Contract Owners participating in the Fund or a Series might at some
time be in conflict, and (3) the Board of Trustees of the Fund will monitor for
any material conflicts and determine what action, if any, should be taken.  The
Fund hereby notifies the Company that prospectus disclosure may be appropriate
regarding potential risks of offering shares of the Fund to separate accounts
funding both variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and
to separate accounts funding Variable Contracts of unaffiliated life insurance
companies.

ARTICLE VI.  Sales Material and Information

6.1.  The Company shall furnish, or shall cause to be furnished, to the Fund or
its designee, each piece of sales literature or other promotional material in

Distributor is named, and no such sales literature or other promotional material
shall be used without the approval of the Fund and the Distributor or the
designee of either.

6.2.  The Company agrees that neither it nor any of its affiliates or agents
shall give any information or make any representations or statements on behalf
of the Fund or concerning the Fund other than the information or representations
contained in the Registration Statement or prospectus for the Fund shares, as
such registration statement and prospectus may be amended or supplemented from
time to time, or in reports or proxy statements for the Fund, or in sales

6.4.  The Fund and the Distributor agree that each and the affiliates and agents
of each shall not give any information or make any representations on behalf of
the Company or concerning  the Company, the Separate Accounts, or the Variable
Contracts issued by the Company, other than the information or representations
contained in a registration statement or prospectus for such Variable Contracts,
as such registration statement and prospectus may be amended or supplemented
from time to time, or in reports for the Separate Accounts or prepared for
distribution to owners of such Variable Contracts, or in sales literature or
other promotional material approved by the Company or its designee, except with
the permission of the Company.

6.5.  The Fund will provide to the Company at least one complete copy of all
prospectuses, Statements of Additional Information, reports, proxy statements
and other voting solicitation materials, and all amendments and supplements to
any of the above, that relate to the Fund or its shares, promptly after the
filing of such document with the SEC or other regulatory authorities.

6.6.  The Company will provide to the Fund at least one complete copy of all
prospectuses (which shall include an offering memorandum if the Variable
Contracts issued by the Company or interests therein are not registered under
the 1933 Act), Statements of Additional Information, reports, solicitations for
voting instructions, and all amendments or supplements to any of the above, that
relate to the Variable Contracts issued by the Company or the Separate Accounts
promptly after the filing of such document with the SEC or other regulatory
authority.

6.7.  For purposes of this Article VI, the phrase "sales literature or other
promotional material" includes, but is not limited to, advertisements (such as

Trustees and officers, any affiliated person of the Fund within the meaning of

"Indemnified Parties" for purposes of this Section 7.1) against any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with
the written consent of the Company) or litigation expenses (including legal and
other expenses), to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject under any
statute, regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or litigation expenses are related to the sale or
acquisition of the Fund's shares or the Variable Contracts issued by the Company
and:

(i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of any material

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
fact contained in the registration statement or prospectus (which shall include

sales literature for such Variable Contracts (or any amendment or supplement to
any of the foregoing), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, provided that this
agreement to indemnify shall not apply as to any Indemnified Party if such
statement or omission or such alleged statement or omission was made in reliance
upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company by or on behalf
of the Fund for use in the registration statement or prospectus for the Variable
Contracts issued by the Company or sales literature (or any amendment or
supplement) or otherwise for use in connection with the sale of such Variable
Contracts or Fund shares; or

persons under its control) or wrongful conduct of the Company or any of its
affiliates, employees or agents with respect to the sale or distribution of the

except to the extent provided in Sections 7.1(b) and 7.1(c) hereof.

7.1(b).  The Company shall not be liable under this indemnification provision

with respect to any claim made against an Indemnified Party unless such Party
shall have notified the Company in writing within a reasonable time after the
summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the
claim shall have been served upon such Indemnified Party (or after such Party

against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid

state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statement or statements therein not misleading, if such statement or
omission was made in reliance upon information furnished to the Company by or on
behalf of the Fund;

except to the extent provided in Sections 7.2(b) and 7.2(c) hereof.

                                       11
<PAGE>
 
7.2(b).  The Distributor shall not be liable under this indemnification
provision with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or litigation
expenses to which an Indemnified Party would otherwise be subject by reason of
willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of his or
her duties or by reason of his or her reckless disregard of obligations and
duties under this Agreement or to the Company or the Separate Accounts.

provision with respect to any claim made against the Indemnified Party unless
such Party shall have notified the Distributor in writing within a reasonable
time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the

(DETACH-LEAVE WITH APPLICANT)

                 DISCLOSURE NOTICE TO APPLICANTS FOR INSURANCE

This brief description of our underwriting process is designed to help you to 
understand how an application for insurance is handled, the types and sources of
information we may collect about you, the circumstances under which we may 
disclose that information to others and your right to learn the nature and 
substance of that information upon written request. The purpose of the 
underwriting process is to make sure you qualify for insurance under Pacific 
Mutual's rules, and assuming you do, establish the proper premium charge for 
that insurance. This process - the evaluation of risks - assures that the cost 
of insurance is distributed equitably among all policyowners, and that each 
individual pays his or her fair share. To determine your insurability, we must 
consider such factors as your medical history, physical condition, occupation 
and hazardous avocations. We get this information from various sources.

                            SOURCES OF INFORMATION

Application and Medical Records - Your application, including the medical 
history, is the primary source of information in the evaluation process. In 
addition, we may ask you to take a physical examination or other special test 
such as an electrocardiogram. We may also ask for a report from your doctor or 
hospital, another insurance company, or the Medical Information Bureau. When we 
do so, we will use the authorization form you signed with your application.

MIB, Inc., (Medical Information Bureau) - MIB, Inc., is a non-profit corporation
which operates an information exchange on behalf of member life insurance
companies. As a member company, we will ask the MIB if it has a record
concerning you. If you previously applied to a member company for insurance, MIB
may have information about you in its file. The purpose of the MIB is to protect
member companies and their policyowners from those who would conceal significant
facts relevant to their insurability. The information which is obtained from MIB
may be used only as an alert to the possible need for further independent
investigation. It cannot be used as a basis in making a final underwriting
decision.

Information regarding your insurability will be treated as confidential. Pacific
Mutual, its subsidiaries or its reinsurer(s) may, however, make a brief report 
to the MIB. If you later apply to another MIB member company for life or health 
insurance coverage, or a claim for benefits is submitted to such a company, the 
MIB, upon request, will supply the company with the information it may have 
about you in its file. Pacific Mutual, its subsidiaries or its reinsurer(s) may 
also release information in its file to other life insurance companies to whom 
you may apply for life or health insurance, or to whom a claim for benefits may 
be submitted.

At your request, the MIB will arrange disclosure of any information it may have 
about you in its file. If you question the accuracy of information on file, you 
may contact the MIB and seek a correction in accordance with the procedures set 
forth in the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act. The address of the information 
office of MIB, Inc. is Post Office Box 105, Essex Station, Boston, Massachusetts
02112, telephone number (617) 426-3660.

Investigative Consumer Report - As part of our underwriting procedure, we may 
request an investigative consumer report from a consumer reporting agency. 
Because you may want to know more about the nature and scope of such a report, 
we are providing this information on the reverse side as part of this Notice.


                          (Continued on reverse side)

AP9500                                                         15-19503-00 10/95

           DISCLOSURE NOTICE TO APPLICANTS FOR INSURANCE (continued)

A consumer report confirms and supplements the information on your application 
pertaining to employment and residence verification, smoking habits, marital 
status, occupation, hazardous avocations and general health. This report may 
also cover information concerning your general reputation, personal 
characteristics and mode of living, (except as may be related directly or 
indirectly to your sexual orientation) including drug and alcohol use, motor 
vehicle driving record and any criminal activity. This information may be 
obtained through personal interviews with you, your family, friends, neighbors 
and business associates. If a report is required and you wish to be personally 
interviewed, please let us know and we will notify the consumer reporting 
agency.

The information contained in the report may be retained by the consumer 
reporting agency and subsequently disclosed to other companies to the extent 
permitted by the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Investigative consumer reports are held in strict confidence and used only to 
evaluate your application on a fair and equitable basis. You have a right to 
inspect and obtain a copy of the report from the consumer reporting agency. 
These reports may have an adverse affect on an individual's eligibility for 
insurance. If it should, however, we will notify you in writing and identify 
the reporting agency.

                             DISCLOSURE TO OTHERS

Personal information obtained about you during the underwriting process is 
confidential and will not be disclosed to other persons or organizations without
your written authorization except to the extent necessary for the conduct of our
business. Examples of situations where we may share information about you are as
follows:

    1.  The agent may retain a copy of your application.

    2.  If reinsurance is required, the reinsurance company would have access to
        our application file.

    3.  We may release information to another life insurance company to whom you
        have applied for life or health insurance or to whom you have submitted
        a claim for benefits, if you have authorized it to obtain such
        information.

    4.  As stated earlier, we may report information to the Medical Information
        Bureau.

    5.  We will disclose information to government regulatory officials, law
        enforcement authorities and others where required by law.

                               DISCLOSURE TO YOU

In general, you have a right to learn the nature and substance of any personal 
information about you in our file upon written request. Whenever an adverse 
underwriting decision is made, we will notify you of the reason(s) for the 
decision and the source of the information upon which our action is based. 
Medical record information, however, will normally be given only to a licensed 
physician of your choice. Please refer to the section on MIB, Inc., for that 
organization's disclosure procedure.

Should you feel that any information we have is inaccurate or incomplete, please
write to the Manager, Risk Selection Department, Pacific Mutual Life Insurance 
Company, 700 Newport Center Drive, Newport Beach, California 92660. Your 
comments will be carefully considered and corrections made where justified.

We hope this Notice will help you to understand how we obtain and use personal 
information in the underwriting process, and the ways you can learn about this 
information. We are concerned with insuring privacy as well as lives, and the 
collection, use and disclosure of personal information is limited to those 
specified in this Notice.

Dear Sirs:

In my capacity as Second Vice President, Associate General Counsel of Pacific
Mutual Life Insurance Company ("Pacific Mutual"), I have supervised the
establishment of Pacific Select Exec Separate Account of Pacific Mutual Life
Insurance Company on November 20, 1986, by resolution of the Board of Directors
of Pacific Mutual and Memorandum dated May 12, 1988 concerning Pacific Select
Exec Separate Account as the separate account for assets applicable to Pacific
Select Exec variable life policies, pursuant to the provisions of Section 10506
of the Insurance Code of the State of California.  Moreover, I have been
associated with the preparation of the Registration Statement on Form S-6
("Registration Statement") filed by Pacific Mutual and Pacific Select Exec
Separate Account with the Securities and Exchange Commission (File No. 811-5563)
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for the registration of the
Variable Life Insurance Policies to be issued with respect to Pacific Select
Exec Separate Account.

I have made such examination of the law and examined such corporate records and
such other documents as in my judgment are necessary and appropriate to enable
me to render the following opinion that:

1. Pacific Mutual has been duly organized under the laws of the State of
California and is a validly existing corporation.

2. Pacific Select Exec Separate Account is duly created and validly existing as
a separate account pursuant to the aforesaid provisions of California law.

3. The portion of the assets to be held in Pacific Select Exec Account equal to
the reserves and other liabilities under the Pacific Select Exec Variable Life
Insurance Policies is not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other
business Pacific Mutual may conduct.

4. The Pacific Select Exec Variable Life Insurance Policies have been duly
authorized by Pacific Mutual and, when issued as contemplated by the
Registration Statement, will constitute legal, validly issued and binding
obligations of Pacific Mutual.

I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration

PACIFIC MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
700 Newport Center Drive
Newport Beach, CA  92660

Gentlemen:

In my capacity as Second Vice President of the Product Design Department of
Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company, I have provided actuarial advice
concerning:

The preparation of the pre-effective amendment Number 1 to the registration
statement on Form S-6, filed by Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933 with respect
to variable life insurance policies (the "Registration Statement") and the
preparation of the policy forms for the variable life insurance policies
described in the Registration Statement (the "Policies").

It is my professional opinion that:

The illustration of death benefits, cash values and accumulated premiums shown
in the Appendix to the prospectus, based on the assumptions stated in the
illustrations and on two pages immediately preceding the illustrations, are
consistent with the provisions of the Policies.  The rate structure of the
Policies has not been designed so as to make the relationship between premiums
and benefits, as shown in the illustrations, appear to be correspondingly more
favorable to the prospective purchaser of the Policies at ages 35 and 50 in the
underwriting classes illustrated than to prospective purchasers of Policies at
other ages or underwriting classes.

I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement and to the use of my name under the heading "Experts" in the
prospectus.

Sincerely,

/s/JAMES T. MORRIS

Memorandum Describing Issuance,
Transfer and Redemption Procedures
<PAGE>
 
Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company's
Description of Issuance, Transfer and Redemption
Procedures for Policies Pursuant to
Rule 6e-3(T)(B)(12)(iii)


This document sets forth the administrative procedures that will be followed by
Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company ("Pacific Mutual") in connection with the
issuance of its Flexible Premium Variable Life Insurance Policy ("Policy"), the
transfer of assets held under the contract, and the redemption by policy owners
of their interests in said contracts.


I. PURCHASE AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

A. Premium Schedules and Underwriting Standards

The contract is a flexible premium variable life insurance policy.  The Policy
provides lifetime insurance protection on the life of the insured named in the
Policy through the maturity date so long as the Policy is not surrendered or in
default beyond the grace period.  A policy owner may elect one of two options to
calculate the amount of death benefit payable under the Policy.  The Policy will
be offered and sold pursuant to an established mortality structure and
underwriting standards in accordance with state insurance laws which prohibit
unfair discrimination among policy owners, but allow cost of insurance rates to
be based upon factors such as age, health or occupation.

The minimum initial premium to purchase a Policy must be equal to at least 25%
of the sum of the Policy's monthly deductions plus premium load for the first
year, which will be based upon the Policy's face amount and the age, smoking
status, gender, and underwriting class of the Insured. Thereafter, a policy
owner may choose the amount and frequency of premium payments.  Pacific Mutual
may reduce the minimum initial premium required under certain circumstances.


B. Application and Initial Premium Processing

Upon receipt of a completed application for a Policy, Pacific Mutual will follow
certain insurance underwriting (i.e., evaluation of risk) procedures designed to
determine whether the proposed insured is insurable.  This process may involve
verification procedures and may require that further information be provided by
the applicant before a determination can be made.  Pacific Mutual will not
become obligated under a Policy until an initial premium and a completed
application have been received by Pacific Mutual, and this underwriting
procedure has been completed.

After the Policy is issued, insurance coverage under the Policy will be deemed
to have begun as of the policy date.  The policy date is usually the date the
application is accepted, or, if later, the date the premium is received at
Pacific Mutual's home office.  The policy date is the date used to determine
policy years, policy months, and policy anniversaries.
<PAGE>
 
C. Additional Premium Payments

The Policy is a flexible-premium policy, and it provides flexibility to premiums
at the policy owner's discretion.  When applying for a Policy, a policy owner
will determine a planned periodic premium that provides for the payment of level
premiums over a specified period of time.  Each policy owner will receive a
premium reminder notice on either an annual, semi-annual, quarterly, or monthly
basis, at the option of the policy owner; however, the policy owner is not
required to pay planned periodic premiums.

Payment of the planned periodic premium will not guarantee that a Policy will
remain in force. Instead, the duration of the Policy depends upon the Policy's
accumulated value.  Even if planned periodic premiums are paid, the Policy will
lapse any time accumulated value less policy debt is insufficient to pay the
current monthly deduction and a grace period expires without sufficient payment.
Any premium payment must be for at least $50.00.  Pacific Mutual also may reject
or limit any premium payment that would result in an immediate increase in the
net amount at risk under the Policy, although such a premium may be accepted
with satisfactory evidence of insurability.

D. Premium Allocation

A policy owner may allocate net premiums among the variable accounts and/or the
fixed account. The initial allocation must be made in the application for the
Policy.  During the free-look period (a limited period of time during which the
policy owner may return and cancel the Policy for a full refund of premiums
paid), all net premiums are allocated to the Money Market Variable Account. The
accumulated value is allocated according to the policy owner's instructions the
later of 15 days after the Policy is issued or 45 days after the application is
completed.  The accumulated value may be allocated to no more than five
investment alternatives at any time.  Those alternatives currently include eight
variable accounts and a fixed account.

Additional net premium payments will be allocated among the investment
alternatives according to the policy owner's instructions.  If the current
instructions would cause the accumulated value to be allocated to more than five
investment alternatives, the premium payment less the premium load will be
allocated to the variable accounts and fixed account in the same proportion as
the accumulated value in those accounts.  A policy owner may change the
allocation of accumulated value by submitting a proper written request to
Pacific Mutual's home office.

E. Reinstatement

Pacific Mutual will reinstate a lapsed Policy (see "Policy Lapsation," Section
III.C. on page 12 of this document) at any time within five years after the end
of the grace period but before the maturity date, provided Pacific Mutual
receives the following: (1) a written application of the policy owner; (2)
evidence of insurability satisfactory to Pacific Mutual; and (3) payment of all
monthly charges and deductions that were due and unpaid during the grace period,
payment of the amount by which net cash surrender value was less than zero at
the beginning of the grace period, and payment of a premium at least equal to
three times the most recent monthly deduction.
<PAGE>
 
When the Policy is reinstated, the accumulated value will be equal to the
accumulated value on the date of the lapse subject to the following:  (1) If the
Policy is reinstated after the first monthly payment date following lapse, the
accumulated value will be reduced by the amount of policy indebtedness on the
date of lapse and no policy indebtedness will exist on the date of
reinstatement; (2) If the Policy is reinstated on the monthly payment date next
following lapse, any policy indebtedness on the date of lapse will also be
reinstated; and (3) No interest on amounts held in Pacific Mutual's Loan Account
to secure policy indebtedness will be paid or credited between lapse and
reinstatement.

Reinstatement will be effective as of the monthly payment date on or next
following the date of approval by Pacific Mutual, and accumulated value minus
policy indebtedness will be allocated among the variable accounts and the fixed
account in accordance with the policy owner's current premium allocation
instructions.

F. Policy Loans

A policy owner may borrow from Pacific Mutual an amount up to 90% of the
Policy's accumulated value allocated to the variable accounts and 100% of
accumulated value allocated to the fixed account less any outstanding policy
debt and less the amount of any surrender charge that would be imposed if the
Policy were surrendered on the date the loan was taken.  The minimum loan that
may be taken is $500.  A policy is the only security required for a loan.

When a policy owner takes a loan, an amount equal to the loan is transferred out
of the policy owner's accumulated value in the variable accounts and the fixed
account on a proportional basis, unless the policy owner instructs Pacific
Mutual otherwise.

The interest rate on loans is 4.75% a year.  Pacific Mutual will credit interest
monthly on amounts held in the Loan Account to secure the loan at an annual rate
of 4.0%.  The owner may repay all or part of the loan at any time while the
Policy is in force.  If not repaid, the policy indebtedness will reduce the
amount of death proceeds paid upon the death of the insured or the cash
surrender value paid upon surrender or maturity.

A loan may affect the length of time the Policy remains in force.  The Policy
will lapse when accumulated value minus policy debt is insufficient to cover the
monthly deduction against the Policy's accumulated value on any monthly payment
date and the minimum payment required is not made during the grace period.
Moreover, the Policy may enter the grace period more quickly when a loan is
outstanding, because the loaned amount is not available to cover monthly
deductions and charges.


II.  TRANSFER AMONG INVESTMENT DIVISIONS

The Pacific Select Exec Separate Account (the "Separate Account") is a separate
investment account of Pacific Mutual used to support the variable death benefits
and policy values of Pacific Mutual's life insurance policies.  The Separate
Account currently is made up of eight variable accounts which
<PAGE>
 
invest in shares of a corresponding series of Pacific Select Fund (the "Fund"),
the investment vehicle of the Separate Account.  The Fund is registered with the
SEC under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end management
investment company of the series type.  The series of the Fund, each of which
has a different investment objective, are the Money Market Series, the Managed
Bond Series, the Government Securities Series, the High Yield Bond Series, the
Growth Series, the Equity Income Series, the Multi-Strategy Series and the
International Series.

A policy owner may allocate accumulated value among the variable accounts in any
way he or she chooses.  However, after the transfer, the accumulated value may
be allocated to no more than five investment alternatives.  No transfers are
allowed during the grace period if the required premium has not been paid.
There is currently no charge imposed upon transfers, and no limit to the number
and frequency of transfers permitted.

Accumulated value may also be transferred from the variable accounts to the
fixed account. However, such a transfer will only be permitted in the policy
month preceding a policy anniversary. Transfers from the fixed account to the
variable account are also permitted, subject to the following restrictions: (1)
The policy owner may not make more than one transfer from the fixed account to
the variable accounts in any 12-month period; (2) If a policy owner has $1,000
or more in the fixed account, the policy owner may not transfer more than 20% of
such amount to the variable accounts in any year.


III. REDEMPTION PROCEDURES: SURRENDER AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

A. Surrender for Net Cash Surrender Value

A policy owner can obtain a portion of the net cash surrender value under two
partial surrender benefits:  the preferred withdrawal benefit and the partial
withdrawal benefit.  The preferred withdrawal benefit is available on the first
policy anniversary until the 15th policy anniversary.  The portion of a
preferred withdrawal of up to 10% of the amount of the policy owner's total
premium payments received and accepted prior to the withdrawal will not reduce
the face amount under the Policy.  The partial withdrawal benefit is available
on and after the 15th policy anniversary.

Both preferred and partial withdrawal must be for at least $500, and the
Policy's net cash surrender value after the withdrawal must be at least $500.
The amount that can be withdrawn is also limited so that after the withdrawal,
any policy debt is no greater than 90% of the new cash surrender value. In
addition, the amount of a partial withdrawal and the excess of a preferred
withdrawal over 10% of total premiums received and accepted prior to the
withdrawal, may be further limited so that face amount will not be less than
$50,000.

When a partial withdrawal is made on a Policy on which the Owner has selected
the death benefit option equal to the face amount of the Policy or, if greater,
accumulated value multiplied by a death benefit percentage, the face amount
under the Policy is decreased by the lesser of (1) the amount of the partial
withdrawal or (2) if the death benefit prior to the withdrawal is greater than
the face amount, the amount, if any, by which the face amount exceeds the
difference between the death
<PAGE>
 
benefit and the amount of the partial withdrawal.  However, assuming that the
death benefit is not equal to accumulated value times a death benefit
percentage, the partial withdrawal will reduce the death benefit by the amount
of the partial withdrawal.  To the extent the death benefit is based upon the
accumulated value times the death benefit percentage applicable to the Insured,
a partial withdrawal may cause the death benefit to decrease by an amount
greater than the amount of the partial withdrawal.

B. Death Claims

Upon the death of an insured, Pacific Mutual will pay to a named beneficiary
death benefit proceeds, either in a lump sum or under a payment plan offered
under the Policy.  The proceeds will be the death benefit under the Policy
reduced by adjustments for any outstanding policy indebtedness.

The death benefit will be either the face amount of the Policy or, if greater,
accumulated value multiplied by a death benefit percentage, or the face amount
of the Policy plus the accumulated value, or if greater, accumulated value
multiplied by a death benefit percentage.  The specified percentages vary
according to the age of the Insured, and are shown in a table in the Policy.
Because the specified percentage is applied to a policy owner's accumulated
value, an increase in accumulated value may increase the death benefit.
However, because the death benefit will never be less than the face amount, a
decrease in the accumulated value may decrease the death benefit but never below
the face amount.

The face amount of the Policy may be changed by the policy owner.  A decrease in
face amount may only be made after the fifth policy year, or after the fifth
policy year following the last increase in face amount.  Such a change may
change the death benefit, depending, among other things, upon whether and the
degree to which the death benefit under a Policy exceeds the face amount prior
to the change.  A change in the face amount may affect the net amount at risk
under a Policy, which may affect a policy owner's cost of insurance charge.  For
these purposes, the net amount at risk is equal to the death benefit less the
policy owner's accumulated value.

Any request for a change in face amount must be in writing at Pacific Mutual's
home office.  A policy owner may make only one such request per policy year.  In
the case of a request for an increase, additional evidence of insurability
satisfactory to Pacific Mutual will also be required.

C. Policy Lapsation

If the accumulated value less policy debt of a Policy is insufficient to cover
deductions and charges on a monthly payment date, Pacific Mutual will give
written notice to the policy owner that if an amount shown in the notice (which
will be sufficient to cover the deduction amount(s) due) is not paid within 61
days (the "grace period"), the policy owner faces a danger of lapse.  The Policy
will remain in force through the grace period, but if no payment is forthcoming,
it will terminate at the end of the grace period.  In order to avoid
termination, the policy owner must pay an amount equal to three times the
charges and deductions due on the monthly payment date in which the
insufficiency occurred.
<PAGE>
 
If the required payment is made during the grace period, such payment and the
accumulated value in the money market variable account (to which accumulated
value in the variable accounts is transferred when lapsation is threatened) will
be allocated among the variable accounts and the fixed account in accordance
with the policy owner's allocation instructions.  If the Insured dies during the
grace period, the death benefit proceeds will equal the amount of the death
benefit immediately prior to the commencement of the grace period, reduced by
any unpaid monthly deductions and charges dues and any policy indebtedness.

A lapsed policy may be reinstated at any time within five years after the end of
the grace period but before the maturity date.  See "Reinstatement," Section
I.E. on page 5 of this document.
