  This prospectus describes Pacific Select Estate Preserver II--a Last
Survivor 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
lives of two Insureds named in the Policy, with a death benefit payable when
the last surviving Insured dies while the Policy is in force. Four death
benefit options are available under the Policy. The Policy is designed to
provide flexibility in connection with premium payments and death benefits to
permit a Policy Owner to provide for changing insurance needs under a single
insurance policy. A Policy may be surrendered for its Cash Surrender Value,
less outstanding Policy Debt.
 
  Net premium payments may be allocated at the Policy Owner's discretion to
one or more of the Investment Options available under the Policy to the Owner.
Variable Investment Options are funded by one of our separate accounts, the
Pacific Select Exec Separate Account (the "Separate Account"), which is
divided into Variable Accounts. Each of the fourteen Variable Accounts that
are currently available to the Owner invest in a corresponding portfolio of
the Pacific Select Fund (the "Fund"):
 
                Money Market Portfolio            Equity Income Portfolio
                High Yield Bond Portfolio         Multi-Strategy Portfolio
                Managed Bond Portfolio            Equity Portfolio
                Government Securities Portfolio   Bond and Income Portfolio
                Growth Portfolio                  Equity Index Portfolio
                Aggressive Equity Portfolio       International Portfolio
                Growth LT Portfolio               Emerging Markets Portfolio
 
  Net premium payments also may be allocated to the Fixed Account. The
Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account will accrue interest at an interest
rate that is guaranteed by us. 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.
 
  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 insures the lives of two Insureds and is intended to provide
death benefits after the deaths of both of the Insureds. Prospective
applicants for the Policy should consult with their agent regarding the
appropriateness of the Policy, relative to a life insurance policy insuring
the life of only one person, for their financial planning goals.
 
  It may not be advantageous to replace existing insurance with this Policy.
The Policy may be returned according to the terms of its Free-Look Right (see
"Right to Examine a Policy--Free-Look Right," page 22).

                             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
 
  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, your 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 life insurance policies and subject
to certain limitations, you may choose the amount and frequency of premium
payments.
 
  Your Policy offers you lifetime insurance protection on the lives of two
Insureds for so long as your Policy is in force. The death benefit proceeds
under your Policy are payable upon the death of the last surviving Insured
named in your Policy. The Policy is intended for situations in which you desire
to provide a benefit to beneficiaries after the deaths of two persons. For
example, the Policy could be used where two spouses wish to provide an estate
benefit for their children after the death of both spouses. The Policy might
not be appropriate where one spouse wishes to provide a benefit to the other
spouse after the death of the first spouse. An insurance policy for a single
insured may be better in this situation. We offer variable life insurance
policies that provide protection for the life of one insured. Applicants should
consult their agent on the appropriateness of the Policy for their situation.
 
POLICY VALUES
 
  You may allocate net premium payments among the various Investment Options
available to you.
 
  You bear the investment risk on that portion of the net premiums and
Accumulated Value allocated to the Variable Accounts. 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.
 
  Your Policy will remain in force until the earliest of the death of the
Survivor, lapse, or a full surrender of your Policy.
 
THE DEATH BENEFIT
 
  You may elect one of four death benefit options under the Policy. THE AMOUNT
OF DEATH BENEFIT IS THE GREATER OF THE POLICY'S GUIDELINE MINIMUM DEATH BENEFIT
OR THE DEATH BENEFIT UNDER THE OPTION YOU SELECT.
 
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
       OPTION                            DEATH BENEFIT

      Option C   Face Amount plus premiums paid minus Partial Withdrawals
      Option D   Face Amount multiplied by the applicable Death Benefit Factor
</TABLE>
 
  You may change the death benefit option to Option A or B subject to certain
conditions. See "Death Benefit" and "Changes in Death Benefit Option," pages 15
and 18, respectively.
 
                                       5

PREMIUM FEATURES
 
  We require you 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.
 
INVESTMENT OPTIONS
 
  You may choose to allocate net premium payments to one or more of the fifteen
Investment Options available to you.
 
  The fourteen Variable Accounts available to you 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. Each of
the available Variable Accounts invests exclusively in shares of a designated
Portfolio of the Fund. Each of the Portfolios of the Fund, which are shown in
the chart on page 11, has a different investment objective or objectives. See
"The Pacific Select Fund," page 10.
 
  You also may allocate all or a portion of net premium payments and transfer
Accumulated Value to the Fixed 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%, and may in its sole discretion
pay interest in excess of the guaranteed amount. See "The Fixed Account," page
31.
 
TRANSFER OF ACCUMULATED VALUE
 
  Subject to certain limitations, you may transfer Accumulated Value among the
Variable Accounts and between the Variable Accounts and the Fixed Account. 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, or (2) 100% of the product of
(a X b/c - d) where (a) equals the Policy's Accumulated Value 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 ($200 in
Connecticut, $250 in Oregon). Your Policy will be the only security required
for a loan. The amount of any Policy Debt is subtracted from the death benefit
or from your Cash Surrender Value upon surrender. See "Policy Loans," page 20.
 
FREE-LOOK RIGHT
 
  A Policy Owner may obtain a full refund of the premium paid if the Policy is
returned within 10 days after the Owner receives it (15 days in Colorado; 20
days in North Dakota; and 30 days if the Owner is a resident of California and
is age 60 or older), or within 45 days after the application for the Policy is
signed, whichever is later (the "Free-Look Period"). However, in Pennsylvania,
you have a different Free-Look Right, under which your Policy may be returned
only within 10 days after you receive it. See "Right to Examine a Policy--Free-
Look Right," page 22.
 
SURRENDER RIGHT
 
  You can surrender the Policy while either Insured is living and receive your
Net Cash Surrender Value, which is equal to your Policy's Accumulated Value
less any outstanding Policy Debt.
 
 
                                       6
<PAGE>
 
PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS
 
  After the first Policy Anniversary and subject to certain restrictions, you
may make Partial Withdrawals of Net Cash Surrender Value. A withdrawal fee of
$25 will be assessed upon a Partial Withdrawal. A Partial Withdrawal might
decrease the Face Amount on a Policy. See "Partial Withdrawals," page 21.
 
CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
 
 Premium Load
 
  A premium load is deducted from each premium payment under a Policy prior to
allocation of the net premium to the Policy Owner's Accumulated Value. The
premium load consists of the following items:
 
  --A sales load equal to 6% of each premium paid during the first ten Policy
   Years and 4% of each premium paid thereafter.
 
  --A state and local premium tax charge equal to 2.35% of each premium paid.
 
  --A federal tax charge equal to 1.50% of each premium paid.
 
 Deductions from Accumulated Value
 
  A charge called the monthly deduction is deducted from the Policy's
Accumulated Value on each Monthly Payment Date. The monthly deduction consists
of the following items:
 
  --Cost of Insurance: The amount of the charge is equal to a current cost of
   insurance rate multiplied by the net amount at risk (the death benefit
   less Accumulated Value) under a Policy at the beginning of the Policy
   Month.
 
  --Administrative Charge: A monthly administrative charge is deducted equal
   to $16 in each of the first five Policy Years, and thereafter at a rate
   equal to $6 per month.
 
  --Mortality and Expense Risk Charge: The mortality and expense risk charge
  consists of two components:
 
    (1) Face Amount Component--During the first ten Policy Years, the Face
        Amount Component will be assessed at a rate determined with reference
        to the Joint Equal Age of the Insureds and the initial Face Amount of
        the Policy. This component is not assessed after the tenth Policy
        Year.
 
    (2) Accumulated Value Component--The Accumulated Value Component is
        assessed at an annual rate equal to .30% of Accumulated Value in the
        first 20 Policy Years and an annual rate equal to .10% of Accumulated
        Value thereafter. For purposes of this component, the Accumulated
        Value is determined after the deduction of the cost of insurance
        charge and charges for any optional insurance Riders or Benefits
        added to the Policy.
 
  --Optional Insurance Benefits Charges: The monthly deduction will include
   charges for any optional insurance Riders or Benefits added to the Policy.
 
 Surrender Charge
 
  No surrender charge will be assessed against Accumulated Value upon surrender
of a Policy.
 
                                       7

FUND ANNUAL EXPENSES AFTER EXPENSE LIMITATION (as a percentage of each
Portfolio's average daily net assets)
 
  Investment advisory fees and operating expenses of the Fund are paid by the
Fund. Fund expenses are not specified under the terms of the Policy, and they
may vary from year to year.

</TABLE>
 
  The expenses listed for the Fund Portfolios reflect current expenses for the
six month period ending June 30, 1996 adjusted to reflect a decrease in fees
for certain operating expenses. The Aggressive Equity and Emerging Markets
Portfolios did not begin operations until April 1, 1996 and their "other
expenses" are on an annualized basis and reflect the policy adopted by Pacific
Mutual as Investment Adviser to the Fund, to waive its fees or otherwise
reimburse expenses so that operating expenses (exclusive of advisory fees,
additional custodial fees associated with holding foreign securities, foreign
taxes on dividends, interest or capital gains, and extraordinary expenses)
expressed as a decimal are not greater than 0.0025 of average daily net assets
per year. We began this policy in 1989 and intend to continue this policy until
at least December 31, 1998, but may discontinue it after that time. In the
absence of this policy, it is estimated that such expenses for the Aggressive
Equity Portfolio and the Emerging Markets Portfolio would exceed this expense
cap in 1996 and total adjusted expenses would be approximately 1.21% and 1.65%
on an annualized basis, respectively. No reimbursement to the other Portfolios
was necessary for the Fund's six month period ended June 30, 1996.
 
  The Fund's expenses are assessed at the Fund level and are not direct charges
against the Variable Accounts or the Policy's Accumulated Value. These expenses
are taken into account in computing each Portfolio's per share net asset value,
which in turn is used to compute the corresponding Variable Account's
Accumulation Unit Value. The Fund's investment advisory fees and operating
expenses are more fully described in the Fund's prospectus, which accompanies
this Prospectus.
 
TAX TREATMENT OF INCREASES IN ACCUMULATED VALUE
 
  We believe that the Accumulated Value under the Policy is currently subject
to the same federal income tax treatment as the cash value under traditional
fixed life insurance. Therefore, generally you will not be deemed to be in
constructive receipt of your 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 Partial
Withdrawal, or a Policy loan, see "Federal Income Tax Considerations," page 25.
 
TAX TREATMENT OF DEATH BENEFIT
 
  We believe that the death benefit under the Policy is currently subject to
federal income tax treatment consistent with that of traditional 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 25.

CONTACTING PACIFIC MUTUAL
 
  All written requests, notices, and forms required by the Policies, and any
questions or inquiries should be directed to our 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, loan requests, loan repayments 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
 
  We are 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 $44.2 billion of individual life insurance in force and total
assets of $17.6 billion. We and our subsidiaries and affiliated enterprises
together had total assets and funds under management of $116.6 billion as of
the end of 1995. We have been ranked according to assets as the 23rd largest
life insurance carrier in the nation for 1995.
 
  The principal underwriter for the Policies is Pacific Mutual Distributors,
Inc. ("PMD"), one of our wholly owned subsidiaries. PMD is registered as a
broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").
 
PACIFIC SELECT EXEC SEPARATE ACCOUNT
 
  The Separate Account is a separate investment account of ours that is 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
our General Account assets 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 insurance 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 variable life insurance policies
funded by the Separate Account 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 our general
corporate obligations. 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.
 
  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.
 
  Each Variable Account available to you 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, generally known as a mutual fund. The Fund is registered with the
SEC under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Fund currently offers
fourteen separate Portfolios that fund the Variable Investments Options
available to you. Each Portfolio pursues different investment objectives and
policies. The shares of each Portfolio are purchased by us 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.
 
 
                                      10
<PAGE>
 
  Shares of the Fund currently are offered only to separate accounts of ours
and an affiliated insurer to serve as an investment medium for variable life
insurance policies and variable annuity contracts issued or administered by
these insurers. Shares of the Fund may also be sold in the future to separate
accounts of other insurance companies, either affiliated or not affiliated
with us. Investment in the Fund by other separate accounts in connection with
variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts may potentially create
conflicts. See "MORE ON THE FUND'S SHARES" in the accompanying prospectus of
the Fund.
 
  The chart below summarizes some basic data about each Portfolio of the Fund
offered to the Separate Account. There can be no assurance that any Portfolio
will achieve its objective. This chart is only a summary. You should read the
more detailed information which is contained in the accompanying prospectus of
the Fund, including information on the risks associated with the investments
and investment techniques of each of the Portfolios.
 
  THE FUND'S PROSPECTUS ACCOMPANIES THIS PROSPECTUS AND SHOULD BE READ

THE INVESTMENT ADVISER AND PORTFOLIO MANAGERS
 
  We serve as Investment Adviser to each Portfolio of the Fund. We are
registered with the SEC as an Investment Adviser. For twelve of the
Portfolios, we and the Fund have engaged other firms to serve as Portfolio
Managers, which are shown in the chart above.
 
                                  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 by insuring the
lives of two Insureds. Anyone wishing to purchase the Policy may submit an
application to us. A Policy can be issued on the life of Insureds for Ages 20
through Age 85 with evidence of insurability satisfactory to us. An Insured's
Age is calculated for most purposes 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. If your application is accompanied
by all or a portion of the initial premium and is accepted by us, your Policy
Date is usually the date the application and premium payment were received at
our Home Office, although your Policy Date will never be the 29th, 30th, or
31st of any month. If your application is not accompanied by all or a portion
of the initial premium payment, your Policy Date is usually the date your
application is accepted by us. We first become obligated under your Policy on
the date your total initial premium is received or on the date your
application is accepted, whichever is later. Any monthly deductions due will
be taken on the Monthly Payment Date on or next following the date we become
obligated. Your 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 your initial premium is not received or your 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 your Policy Date
may not be more than six months prior to the date of your application.
Backdating can be advantageous if the Insureds' lower issue Ages 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 your Policy
Date is backdated.
 
  Insureds are assigned to underwriting (insurance 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 "Charges and Deductions: Cost of Insurance"), and underwriting
classes of the Insureds. Thereafter, subject to the limitations described
below, you may choose the amount and frequency of premium payments. The
Policy, therefore, provides the Policy Owner with the flexibility to vary
premium payments to reflect varying financial conditions.
 
  When applying for a Policy, you will determine a Planned Periodic Premium
that provides for the payment of level premiums at fixed intervals over a
specified period of time. You will receive a premium reminder notice
 
                                      12
<PAGE>
 
annually, semi-annually, or quarterly; 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. 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
no day is elected by you, the day on which premiums are paid will be the
Monthly Anniversary.
 
  Payment of the Periodic Planned Premium will not guarantee that your Policy
will remain in force. Instead, the continuation of your Policy depends upon
your Policy's Accumulated Value. Even if Periodic Planned Premiums are paid,
your Policy will lapse any time Net Cash Surrender Value is insufficient to
pay the current monthly deduction and a grace period expires without
sufficient payment. See "Lapse".
 
  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 "Charges and Deductions: Cost of
Insurance". 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 Guideline Minimum Death Benefit. See
"Death Benefit". 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. We also reserve the right
to make distributions from your Policy to the extent we deem it necessary to
continue to qualify your Policy as life insurance under the Internal Revenue
code.
 
  The amount, frequency, and period of time over which you pay premiums might
affect whether your 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.
 
  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 have 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.
 
  Certain charges will be deducted from each premium payment. See "Charges and
Deductions". 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 premium payments unless you request
otherwise.
 
ALLOCATION OF NET PREMIUMS
 
  In your application for the Policy, you select the Investment Options to
which net premium payments will be allocated. When your application is
approved and your Policy is issued, your Accumulated Value will be
automatically allocated according to your instructions contained in your
application, or more recent written instructions, if any (except for amounts
allocated to the Loan Account to secure any Policy Debt). For residents of
states that require a refund of premium to an Owner who returns the Policy
during the Free-Look Period, net premiums received by us before the Free-Look
Transfer Date will be allocated to the Money Market Variable Account (except
for amounts allocated to the Loan Account to secure any Policy loan). The
Free-Look Transfer Date is the later of 15 days after the Policy is issued or
45 days after the application is signed, or, if longer, upon receipt of the
minimum initial premium. Net premiums received after the Free-Look Transfer
Date will be allocated upon receipt among the Investment Options according to
your most recent instructions.
 
                                      13
<PAGE>
 
  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 for Telephone
Requests is on file at our Home Office. We reserve the right to suspend or
discontinue telephone net premium allocation instructions.
 
DOLLAR COST AVERAGING OPTION
 
  We currently offer an option under which you may dollar cost average your
allocations in the available 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 under 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. Dollar cost averaging does not
guarantee profits, nor does it assure that a Policy Owner will not have
losses.
 
  A Dollar Cost Averaging Request Form is available upon request. To elect the
Dollar Cost Averaging Option, the Accumulated Value in the Variable Account
from which the Dollar Cost Averaging transfers will be made must be 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 you
designate from the Variable Account from which transfers are to be made to the
Variable Account or Accounts you choose. 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 your Policy's Monthly, Quarterly, Semi-
Annual, or Annual Anniversary, whichever corresponds to the period selected by
you, on or next following receipt at our Home Office of a Dollar Cost
Averaging Request in proper form. 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 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 this option by written request
to our Home Office. We may discontinue, modify, or suspend the Dollar Cost
Averaging Option at any time.
 
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.
 
                                      14

TRANSFER OF ACCUMULATED VALUE
 
  Accumulated Value may be transferred among the Variable Accounts by the
Policy Owner upon proper written request to our Home Office. Transfers may not
be made until after the Free-Look Transfer Date if you reside in a state that
requires us to refund premiums if you exercise your Free-Look Right. 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 is on file 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 your Policy is in the grace
period and a payment required to avoid lapse is not paid. See "Lapse". 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 impose other reasonable limits or suspend or discontinue
telephone transfers.
 
  Accumulated Value may also be transferred after the Free-Look Transfer Date
from the Variable Accounts to the Fixed Account; however, such a transfer will
only be permitted in the Policy Month preceding your Policy Anniversary,
except that if you reside in Connecticut, Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina,
North Dakota, or Pennsylvania, you 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".
 
DEATH BENEFIT
 
  When your Policy is issued, we will determine the initial amount of
insurance based on the instructions provided in the 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 $100,000. We
may reduce the minimum Face Amount required at issuance under certain
circumstances.
 
  For so long as your Policy remains in force, we will, upon proof of the
death of both Insureds, 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).
 
  Each Policy Owner may select one of four death benefit options: Option A,
Option B, Option C, or Option D. Generally, you designate the death benefit
option in your application. If no option is designated, Option A will be
assumed by us to have been selected. Subject to certain restrictions, you may
change the death benefit option selected to Option A or B.
 
  The death benefit upon the death of the Survivor will be equal to the death
benefit option selected or, if greater, the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit,
which is Accumulated Value (determined as of the end of the Valuation Period
during which the Survivor dies) multiplied by the Death Benefit Percentage.
The Death Benefit Percentage varies according to the Age of the younger
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 Appendix C to this prospectus and
in the Policy. Under any option, for so long as your Policy remains in force,
the death benefit will never be less than the Face Amount of your Policy and
will always be sufficient to qualify the Policy as life insurance under
Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code.
 
  Option A. Under Option A, the death benefit will be equal to the Face Amount
of your Policy.
 
  Option B. Under Option B, the death benefit will be equal to the Face Amount
of your Policy plus the Accumulated Value. The death benefit under Option B
will always vary as Accumulated Value varies.
 
 
                                      15
<PAGE>
 
  Option C. Under Option C, the death benefit will be equal to the Face Amount
of your Policy plus the total premiums paid minus the sum of any partial
withdrawals taken and any other distribution of Accumulated Value.
 
  Option D. Under Option D, the death benefit will be equal to the Face Amount
of the Policy multiplied by a Death Benefit Factor. Death Benefit Factors for
Joint Equal Ages and Policy years, each at 5 year intervals, are shown in
Appendix D; a complete chart is contained in your Policy. Generally, the Death
Benefit Factor is a number from 1.0 to 2.0. The factor that applies to a
Policy varies with the Joint Equal Age of the Insureds and the number of
completed Policy Years, and changes on each Policy Anniversary. Generally, the
Death Benefit Factor will reach the maximum of 2.0 when the sum of the Joint
Equal Age and the number of completed Policy Years is between 85 and 90, so
that the minimum death benefit at that time would be equal to twice the amount
of the Face Amount.
 
  Choosing Among the Options. Options A through D are intended to provide
flexibility in the amount of insurance protection provided under a Policy.
Option A provides for the smallest amount of insurance protection, in that the
death benefit is equal to the Face Amount (assuming that the Guideline Minimum
Death Benefit is not greater than the Face Amount). Under this option,
favorable investment performance will be reflected in increasing Accumulated
Value rather than insurance protection. Options B and C provide for a greater
degree of insurance protection, in that the death benefit under Option B
includes Accumulated Value, and the benefit under Option C includes the amount
of premiums paid minus withdrawals and any other distributions of Accumulated
Value. As between Options B and C, the death benefit under Option B will
reflect the value of growth in Accumulated Value due to performance, and
Option C will not (assuming that Guideline Minimum Death Benefit is not
greater than the death benefit otherwise determined). Option D provides some
assurance that the death benefit will increase gradually over time without
regard to the investment performance of the Investment Options.
 
                                      16

  Examples of Death Benefit Options. The following examples demonstrate the
determination of death benefits under Options A through D. The examples show
eight hypothetical Policies, each with a Face Amount of $1,000,000 and where
the two Insureds are male and female nonsmokers, each Age 45 at the time of
issue, and assuming that there is no outstanding Policy Debt, that no
withdrawals have been taken, and the other assumptions shown below. (The
examples are intended to portray differences in death benefits; Accumulated
Value assumptions may not be realistic.)

</TABLE>
 
  The death benefit shown in these examples is based upon the Guideline
Minimum Death Benefit for the following examples: Policy II, Option A; Policy
III, Options A and D; Policy IV, Options A, C, and D; Policy VII, Option A;
and Policy VIII, Options A and C.
 
  If the death benefit is equal to the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit, we
reserve the right to reduce the death benefit by requiring Partial Withdrawals
be made in order to maintain the net amount at risk at a level that will not
exceed three times the death benefit on the Policy Date. Such Partial
Withdrawals may be taxable to you in whole or in part. See "Federal Income Tax
Considerations." The $25.00 withdrawal fee will not be assessed on Partial
Withdrawals we require.
 
  The Policy is intended to qualify as a life insurance contract under the
Internal Revenue Code for Federal tax purposes, and the death benefit under
the Policy is intended to qualify for the income tax exclusion under the
Internal Revenue Code. Unless otherwise specified by you in writing, it is
intended that the Policy will not be treated as a modified endowment contract
under the Internal Revenue Code. To these ends, the provisions of the Policy,
including any other Rider, Benefit, or endorsement, are to be interpreted to
ensure such tax qualification and to prevent the Policy from being treated as
a modified endowment contract, notwithstanding any other provisions to the
contrary.
 
  If at any time the premiums paid under your Policy exceed the amount
allowable for such tax qualification, such excess amount shall be removed from
the Policy as of the date of its payment, and any appropriate adjustment in
the death benefit shall be made as of such date. The excess amount shall be
refunded to you no later than 60 days after the end of the applicable Policy
Year. The excess amount removed from the Policy and refunded to you may be
adjusted for interest or for changes in Accumulated Value attributable to the
excess amount. If for some reason this excess amount is not refunded by then,
the death benefit under this Policy shall
 
                                      17
<PAGE>
 
be increased retroactively and prospectively so that at no time is the death
benefit ever less than the amount needed to ensure such tax qualification. To
the extent that the death benefit as of any time is increased by this
provision, appropriate adjustments shall be made retroactively in any cost of
insurance or supplemental benefits as of that time that are consistent with
such an increase.
 
  If at any time the premiums or other amounts paid under the Policy exceed
the limit for avoiding modified endowment contract treatment, and you have not
specified in writing that such treatment is acceptable to you, such excess
amount shall be removed from the Policy as of the date of its payment, and any
appropriate adjustment in the Policy's death benefit shall be made as of such
date. This excess amount shall be refunded to you no later than 60 days after
the end of the applicable Policy Year. The excess amount removed from the
Policy and refunded to you may be adjusted for interest or for changes in
Accumulated Value attributable to the excess amount. If this excess amount is
not refunded by then, the death benefit under your Policy shall be increased
retroactively and prospectively to the minimum amount necessary so that at no
time is the death benefit ever less than the amount needed to avoid modified
endowment contract treatment. To the extent the death benefit as of any time
is increased by this provision, appropriate adjustments shall be made,
retroactively or otherwise, in any cost of insurance or supplemental benefits
as of that time that are consistent with such an increase.
 
  All calculations of death benefit will be made as of the end of the
Valuation Period during which the Survivor dies. We will pay interest on death
benefit proceeds from the date of the Survivor's death to the date of payment
at an annual rate of not less than 4% or if higher, the interest rate required
by state law. Death benefit proceeds may be paid to the Beneficiary in a lump
sum or under a payment plan offered under the Policy. Your Policy should be
consulted for details.
 
CHANGES IN DEATH BENEFIT OPTION
 
  After the fifth Policy Year, you may request that the death benefit option
under your Policy be changed to Option A or B. Changes to Option C or D will
not be available. Changes in the death benefit option may be made only once
per Policy Year and should be made in writing to our Home Office. The
effective date of any such change shall be the next Monthly Payment Date on or
next following the date we receive your written request at our Home Office.
 
  A change in the death benefit under a Policy will result in a change in the
Face Amount of the Policy so that the death benefit under the new death
benefit option will equal the death benefit under the former option
immediately prior to the change. From that point on, the change in option will
affect the determination of the death benefit. In addition, 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. A change will not be
permitted if it would result in a Face Amount of less than $100,000, although
we reserve the right to waive this minimum under certain circumstances.
 
  Unless otherwise specified by you in writing, any request for a death
benefit option change will not be accepted by us if the option change would
cause your Policy to be treated as a modified endowment contract.
 
DECREASE IN FACE AMOUNT
 
  You may request a decrease in the Face Amount under your Policy subject to
approval from us. A decrease in Face Amount may only be made once per Policy
Year and only after the first Policy Year. 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. A decrease in Face Amount may decrease the
net amount at risk, which may decrease your cost of insurance charge.
 
  Any request for a 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 the date we receive your written request at
our Home Office.
 
                                      18
<PAGE>
 
  A decrease will not be permitted if the Face Amount would fall below
$100,000, although we reserve the right to waive the minimum Face Amount under
certain circumstances, such as for group or sponsored arrangements. 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 may 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, (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, or
(3) if the decrease would cause your Policy to be treated as a modified
endowment contract and you have not specified in writing that such treatment
is acceptable to you.
 
POLICY VALUES
 
  Accumulated Value. The Accumulated Value is the sum of the amounts under the
Policy held in each Investment Option, as well as the amount set aside in our
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 Investment Option also will
be adjusted to reflect the assessment of the monthly deduction. See
"Determination of Accumulated Value". 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 the
Accumulated Value.
 
  Net Cash Surrender Value. The Net Cash Surrender Value of your Policy equals
the Cash Surrender Value less any outstanding Policy Debt. You can surrender
your Policy at any time while either Insured is living and receive its Net
Cash Surrender Value. See "Surrender".
 
DETERMINATION OF ACCUMULATED VALUE
 
  Although the death benefit under your Policy can never be less than the
Policy's Face Amount, your 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, Partial Withdrawals, and the
charges assessed in connection with your 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 will be invested in shares of
the corresponding Portfolio of the Fund. The investment performance of the
Variable Accounts 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, the Policy is credited with accumulation
units. In addition, other transactions including loans, a surrender, 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.
 
 
                                      19
<PAGE>
 
  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 a properly completed
Authorization For Telephone Requests has been 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 ($200 in Connecticut, $250 in Oregon). The maximum
amount that can be borrowed at any time is the greater of (1) 100% of your
Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account plus 90% of your Accumulated Value in
the Variable Accounts or (2) 100% of the product of (a X b/c - d) where (a)
equals the Policy's Accumulated Value 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 your Accumulated Value
less Policy Debt.
 
  The Policy loan interest rate is 4.50% for years one through ten, 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 4.00%.
 
  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 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 the most recent premium allocation
instructions. In addition, on each Policy Anniversary 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. Any payment we receive from you while you have a loan
outstanding will be first considered a premium payment, unless you tell us in
writing it is a loan repayment.
 
  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 might have an
effect on the amount and duration of the death benefit. If not repaid, the
Policy Debt will be deducted from the amount of death benefit upon the death
of the Survivor, the Cash Surrender Value upon surrender, 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 Net Cash Surrender Value 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 your Policy in force. See "Lapse".
 
                                      20
<PAGE>
 
  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".
 
SURRENDER
 
  You may fully surrender your Policy at any time during the life of either
Insured. The amount received in the event of a full surrender is your Policy's
Net Cash Surrender Value, which is equal to its Accumulated Value 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 the 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". For information on the tax
effects of a surrender of a Policy, see "Federal Income Tax Considerations".
 
PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS
 
  A Policy Owner may make Partial Withdrawals of Net Cash Surrender Value
starting on the first Policy Anniversary. The portion of the first Partial
Withdrawal in each of the first 15 Policy Years of up to the lesser of $10,000
or 10% of the Cash Surrender Value will not reduce the Face Amount under your
Policy. The excess of any Partial Withdrawal over this amount may cause a
reduction in Face Amount if the death benefit option is Option A or D, as
described below.
 
  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 your Cash Surrender Value immediately prior to the withdrawal over the
result of the Policy Debt divided by 90%. If you do not make a Partial
Withdrawal during one of the first 15 Policy Years, the amount that you could
have withdrawn without affecting Face Amount does not carry over in the
following year.
 
  You may make a 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 Accumulated Value in the Investment Options unless you
request otherwise. If the Survivor 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. A withdrawal fee of $25
will be charged for a Partial Withdrawal. (See "Charges and Deductions.")
 
  Except as noted above, when a Partial Withdrawal is made on a Policy on
which you have selected death benefit Option A or D, the Face Amount under
your Policy is decreased by the excess, if any, of the Face Amount over the
result of the death benefit immediately prior to the Partial Withdrawal minus
the amount of the Partial Withdrawal. A Partial Withdrawal will not change the
Face Amount of your Policy if you have selected death benefit Option B or C.
However, assuming that the death benefit is not equal to the Guideline Minimum
Death Benefit, the Partial Withdrawal will reduce the death benefit by the
amount of the Partial Withdrawal. To the extent the death benefit is the
Guideline Minimum Death Benefit, a Partial Withdrawal may cause the death
benefit to decrease by an amount greater than the amount of the Partial
Withdrawal. See "Death Benefit".
 
  Unless otherwise specified by you in writing, no Partial Withdrawal request
will be accepted by us if the Partial Withdrawal would cause your Policy to be
treated as a modified endowment contract.
 
  For information on the tax treatment of Partial Withdrawals, see "Federal
Income Tax Considerations".
 
                                      21

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 (15 days in Colorado; 20 days in North Dakota;
and 30 days if you are a resident of California and are age 60 or older), or
within 45 days after you complete the application for insurance, whichever is
later. However, in Pennsylvania, you have a different Free-Look Right, under
which your Policy may be returned only within 10 days after you receive it.
For this purpose, your application is considered complete when you sign it. It
can be mailed or delivered to us or our agent. The returned Policy will be
treated as if we never issued it, except as indicated below, and we will
refund any charges deducted from premiums received, any net premium allocated
to the Fixed Account, plus the sum of your Accumulated Value allocated to the
Variable Accounts plus any Policy Charges and Fees deducted from your
Accumulated Value in the Variable Accounts. If you reside in a state that
requires us to return premium payments to Policy Owners who exercise the Free-
Look Right, we will refund the amount of the premium paid. If you have taken a
loan during the Free-Look Period, the Policy Debt will be deducted from the
amount refunded. When the application is approved and the Policy is issued,
net premiums will be allocated according to your instructions, unless the
Policy is sold to a resident of a state that requires a refund of premium, in
which case, until the Free-Look Transfer Date, net premiums received by us
will be allocated to the Money Market Variable Account (except for amounts
allocated to the Loan Account to secure a Policy loan). See "Allocation of Net
Premiums".
 
LAPSE
 
  Your Policy will remain in force until the earliest of the death of the
Survivor or a full surrender of your Policy, unless before either 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 your Policy Owner.
If your 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 Survivor 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 provided we receive the following: (1) a
written application from the Policy Owner; (2) evidence of insurability
satisfactory to us for each Insured; 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.
 
                                      22
<PAGE>
 
  When your Policy is reinstated, the 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 the first Monthly Payment Date following lapse, the
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 the Monthly Payment Date next following lapse, any
Policy Debt on the date of lapse will also be reinstated. No interest on
amounts held in our Loan Account to secure Policy Debt 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 us,
and 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 a Policy prior to
allocation of the net premium to the Policy Owner's Accumulated Value. The
premium load consists of the following items:
 
    Sales Load. The sales load is equal to 6% of each premium paid during the
  first ten Policy Years and 4% of each premium paid thereafter.
 
    The sales load is deducted to compensate us for the cost of distributing
  the Policies. The amount derived by us from the sales load is not expected
  to be sufficient to cover the sales and distribution expenses in connection
  with the Policies. To the extent that sales and distribution expenses
  exceed sales loads, such expenses may be recovered from other charges,
  including amounts derived from the charge for mortality and expense risks
  and from mortality gains.
 
    We may reduce or waive the sales load on Policies sold to our directors
  or employees 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. Premium taxes vary from state to
  state, and in some instances, among municipalities. We reserve the right to
  change the premium tax charge to reflect any changes in the law. We do not
  expect to profit from this charge.
 
    Federal Tax Charge. A charge equal to 1.50% is assessed against each
  premium to pay applicable Federal Tax. We reserve the right to change the
  Federal Tax charge to reflect any changes in the law.
 
DEDUCTIONS FROM ACCUMULATED VALUE
 
  A charge called the monthly deduction is deducted from a Policy's
Accumulated Value in the Investment Options beginning on the Monthly Payment
Date on or next following the date we first become obligated under the Policy
and on each Monthly Payment Date thereafter. Unless you request otherwise, the
monthly deduction will be deducted from the Investment Options on a prorata
basis. 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 joint Insureds who die. 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. We may use any profit we derive from this
charge for any lawful purpose, including the cost of claims processing and
investigation. 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 1.00327374 (a discount factor to account for return deemed to be earned
during the month) less the Accumulated Value at the beginning of the Policy
Month.
 
  Each Policy contains guaranteed cost of insurance rates that may not be
increased. The guaranteed rates are intended to reflect the insurance risk
associated with joint Insureds. They are based on certain of the 1980
 
                                      23
<PAGE>
 
Commissioners Standard Ordinary Mortality Tables (and where unisex cost of
insurance rates apply, the 1980 Commissioners Ordinary Mortality Table B), and
the Ages, gender (where permissible), and underwriting classes of the
Insureds. The guaranteed cost of insurance rates are set equal to zero
starting at the Policy Anniversary where the younger Insured reaches age 100,
and will remain zero from that point on. 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 Ages, gender (where
permissible), and underwriting classes of the Insureds. They also vary with
the number of completed Policy Years. The cost of insurance rates generally
increase with the Ages of the Insureds.
 
  Administrative Charge. A monthly administrative charge is deducted equal to
$16 in each of the first 60 Policy Months and $6 per month thereafter. 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 $16 during the first 60 Policy Months and $6 per
month thereafter. We do not expect to profit from this charge.
 
  The monthly administrative charges will be waived on the second or
subsequent Policies acquired by you on the lives of the Insureds who are the
same Insureds as on your initial Policy, and that Policy is in force. However,
we deduct $200 from the initial premium to cover processing costs.
 
  Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. A monthly charge is deducted for
mortality and expense risks assumed by us. The mortality and expense risk
charge consists of two components: a Face Amount Component and an Accumulated
Value Component.
 
  During the first ten Policy Years, the Face Amount Component will be
assessed at a rate determined with reference to the initial Face Amount of the
Policy. The rate will be equal to a Face Amount Component Factor per $1,000 of
initial Face Amount. Face Amount Component Factors are shown in Appendix B,
and they are based upon the Joint Equal Age of the Insureds at the Policy
Date. For example, for a Policy where the Joint Equal Age attributable to the
Insureds is 50 on the Policy Date, and where the Face Amount is $100,000, the
Face Amount Component Factor would be 0.102, and the monthly Face Amount
Component for the first ten Policy Years would be $10.20. This component is
not assessed after the tenth Policy Year.
 
  In addition, a monthly Accumulated Value Component is assessed at an annual
rate equal to .30% of Accumulated Value during the first twenty Policy Years
and .10% of Accumulated Value thereafter. For purposes of this component, the
Accumulated Value is based upon its value on the Monthly Payment Date after
the deduction of the cost of insurance charge and charges for any optional
insurance Riders or Benefits added.
 
  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.
 
  Optional Insurance Benefits Charges. The monthly deduction will include
charges for any optional insurance Riders or Benefits added to the Policy. See
"Optional Insurance Benefits".
 
WITHDRAWAL CHARGE
 
  A withdrawal fee of $25 will be deducted proportionately from the
Accumulated Value in the Investment Options each time a Partial Withdrawal
occurs.

CORPORATE PURCHASERS
 
  The Policy is available for individuals and for corporations and other
institutions. For corporations or other group or sponsored arrangements
purchasing one or more Policies, we may reduce the amount of charges where the
expenses associated with the sale of the Policy or Policies 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 arrangements, from the amount of the initial
premium payment or payments, or the amount of projected premium payments.
 
OTHER CHARGES
 
  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 "Summary of the Policy: Fund Annual Expenses After Expense
Limitation" and 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, and the guaranteed
cost of insurance rates.
 
                               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 under Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") and hence
will receive federal income tax treatment consistent with that of traditional
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, policies with term
insurance on the Insureds, and certain tax requirements relating to joint
survivorship life insurance policies). 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 IRC Section 101(a)(1) for purposes of the
 
                                      25
<PAGE>
 
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 or a Partial Withdrawal. In
addition, certain Policy loans may be taxable in the case of Policies that are
modified endowment contracts. PROSPECTIVE POLICY 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 Insureds generally will not result in the recognition of
gain or loss according to Section 1035(a) of the IRC. Changing the Insureds
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 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 that 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 assurance that the Portfolios 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 life
insurance 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 Estate Preserver Policy II may or may not be a
modified endowment contract, depending on the amount of premiums paid during
each of the Policy's first seven
 
                                      26
<PAGE>
 
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 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 Partial Withdrawals.
Under IRC Section 7702, if a Partial 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.
 
  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 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. If two or more policies which
are classified as modified endowment contracts are purchased from any one
insurance company, including us, 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
 
                                      27
<PAGE>
 
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. Under
the proposed regulations, the standards applicable to joint survivor life
insurance policies are not entirely clear. 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 the 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.
 
  Accelerated Living Benefits. An Accelerated Living Benefit Rider is
available in connection with the Policy. Benefits under the Accelerated Living
Benefit Rider may be taxable. The Internal Revenue Service has issued proposed
regulations and is expected to issue final regulations in the near future
under which accelerated living benefits that meet the requirements set forth
in the regulations can be received without incurring a Federal income tax. The
precise requirements which will be incorporated in the final regulations are
not known.
 
  In some cases, there may be a question as to whether a life insurance policy
that has an accelerated living benefit rider can meet certain technical
aspects of the definition of "life insurance contract" under the Code. The IRS
regulations mentioned above are expected to set forth the requirements under
which a policy with an accelerated living benefits rider will be deemed to
meet the definitional requirements of a life insurance contract. Pacific
Mutual reserves the right to (but is not obligated to) modify the Rider to
conform with requirements under the final regulations. OWNERS CONSIDERING
ADDING AN ACCELERATED LIVING BENEFIT RIDER OR EXERCISING RIGHTS UNDER THE
RIDER SHOULD FIRST CONSULT A QUALIFIED TAX ADVISOR.
 
  Split Policy Option Rider. This Rider permits a Policy to be split into two
individual policies. A Policy split could have adverse tax consequences. For
example, it is not clear whether a Policy split will be treated as a
nontaxable exchange under IRC Section 1031 through 1043. If a Policy split is
not treated as a nontaxable exchange, a split could result in the recognition
of taxable income in an amount up to any gain in the Policy at the time of the
split. OWNERS CONSIDERING ADDING A SPLIT POLICY OPTION RIDER OR EXERCISING
RIGHTS UNDER THIS RIDER SHOULD FIRST CONSULT A QUALIFIED TAX ADVISER.
 
  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.
 
  WE DO NOT MAKE ANY GUARANTEE REGARDING THE TAX STATUS OF ANY POLICY.
 
CHARGE FOR OUR INCOME TAXES
 
  For federal income tax purposes, variable life insurance generally is
treated in a manner consistent with traditional fixed life insurance. We will
review the question of the charge to the Separate Account for our federal
income taxes periodically. A charge may be made for any federal income taxes
incurred by us that are attributable to the Separate Account or to our
operations with respect to the Policy. A charge might become necessary if our
tax treatment 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.
 
                                      28
<PAGE>
 
VOTING OF FUND SHARES
 
  In accordance with our 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 or by the Fund. 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
our 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 you 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 a Policy Owner 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 SEC, 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.
 
  If there are shares of a Portfolio held by a Variable Account for which we
do not receive timely voting instructions, we will vote those shares in the
same proportion as all other shares of that Portfolio held by that Variable
Account for which we have received timely voting instructions. If we hold
shares of a Portfolio in our General Account, we will vote those shares in the
same proportion as other votes cast by all of our 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.
 
REPORT TO OWNERS
 
  A statement will be sent quarterly to you setting forth a summary of the
transactions which occurred during the Policy 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 unscheduled premium payments and
transfers, loans, loan repayments, withdrawals, and surrenders. Confirmation
of scheduled transactions under dollar cost averaging and portfolio
rebalancing will appear on your quarterly statement.
 
  You will also be sent annual 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
 
                                      29
<PAGE>
 
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 a Policy
Owner's interest in a Variable Account or the Separate Account without notice,
Policy Owner approval, or prior approval of the SEC 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. New Variable Accounts may be established when, in 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 cease offering or 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 our or an
affiliate of ours. 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 and modified endowment contracts
under the IRC, under regulations of the United States Treasury Department or
any state.
 
                            PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
 
  Performance information for the Variable Accounts of the Separate Account
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 a 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 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 varying
death benefit options will result in different expenses for the cost of
insurance, and the varying expenses will result in different Accumulated
Values. Since the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit is equal to a percentage
(e.g., 250% for an Insured Age 40)
 
                                      30
<PAGE>
 
times Accumulated Value, it will vary with Accumulated Value. The cost of
insurance charge varies according to the Ages of the Insureds and therefore
the cost of insurance charge reflected in the performance for the hypothetical
Policy is based on the hypothetical Insureds and death benefit option assumed.
 
  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 our 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 SEC 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 other separate accounts of ours. Subject to applicable law, we
have sole discretion over the investment of the assets of our General Account.
 
  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 at 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 a Policy Owner who has Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account as for a
Policy Owner who has Accumulated Value in the Variable Accounts. See "Death
Benefit".

  Policy charges will be the same whether you who 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, state and local premium tax charge, and federal 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 withdrawal 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 your 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 from the Variable Accounts to the Fixed Account
and from the Fixed Account to the Variable Accounts, subject to the following
limitations. If you reside in states that require us to refund premiums to
Owners who return their Policies during the Free Look Period, you may not make
transfers until after the Free Look Transfer Date. No transfer may be made if
the Policy is in a grace period and the required premium has not been paid.
You may not make more than one transfer from the Fixed Account to the Variable
Accounts in any 12-month period. Further, you may not transfer more than the
greater of 25% of your Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account or $5,000 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 if you reside in
Connecticut, Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, or Pennsylvania, you may make
such a transfer at any time during the first eighteen Policy Months.
 
  You may also make full surrenders and Partial Withdrawals from the Fixed
Account to the same extent as an Owner who has invested in the Variable
Accounts. See "Surrender" and "Partial Withdrawals". You may borrow up to the
greater of (1) 90% of your Accumulated Value in the Variable Accounts and 100%
of your Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account, and (2) 100% of the product of
(a X b/c - d) where (a) equals the Policy's Accumulated Value less 12 times
the current monthly deductions; (b) equals 1 plus the annual loan interest
rate credited; (c) equals 1 plus the annual loan rate currently charged; and
(d) equals any existing Policy Debt. See "Policy Loans". 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 Insureds are 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 either 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
 
                                      32
<PAGE>
 
this form is signed. Contingent and/or concurrent Beneficiaries may be
designated. You may designate a permanent Beneficiary, whose rights under your
Policy cannot be changed without his or her consent. Unless otherwise
provided, if no designated Beneficiary is living upon the death of the
Survivor, you are the Beneficiary, if living; otherwise 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 Survivor's death, the
Beneficiary must be living at the time of the Survivor's death.
 
THE CONTRACT
 
  This Policy is a contract between the Owner and us. The entire contract
consists of the Policy, a copy of the initial application, all subsequent
applications to change the Policy, any endorsements, any Riders and Benefits,
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, 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, any
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 a Variable 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, Rider,
Benefit, and endorsement, will be subject to the assignment. 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 Policy 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".)
 
ERRORS ON THE APPLICATION
 
  If the Age or sex of either Insured has been misstated, the Face Amount
shall be adjusted as follows in order to reflect the correct Age or sex: the
Face Amount before the adjustment will be multiplied by the monthly cost of
insurance rate used in the Policy Year in which the misstatement is
discovered, based on the misstated Age or sex, and the result will be divided
by the monthly cost of insurance rate for the Policy Year in which the
misstatement is discovered, based on the correct Age and sex. For all Policy
Months following the discovery of the misstatement, Accumulated Value will be
calculated using cost of insurance charges, Rider charges and Benefit charges
based on the correct Age and sex, but Accumulated Value for all Policy Months
through the Month in which the misstatement is discovered will not be
recalculated. Mortality and expense risk charges will not be recalculated. If
unisex cost of insurance rates apply, no adjustment will be made for a
misstatement of sex. See "Charges and Deductions: Cost of Insurance".

<PAGE>
 
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 with
respect to a given Insured after the Policy has been in force during the
Insured's lifetime for two years from the Policy Date; and reinstatement
cannot be contested after it has been in force during an Insured's lifetime
for two years from the date of reinstatement.
 
PAYMENT IN CASE OF SUICIDE
 
  If either 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, dividends paid by us in cash, and Policy
Debt.
 
DIVIDENDS
 
  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, we will send you an illustration of future benefits under your
Policy based on both guaranteed and current cost factor assumptions. However,
we reserve the right to charge a $25 fee for requests for illustrations in
excess of one per Policy year.
 
PAYMENT PLAN
 
  Surrender or withdrawal benefits may be used to purchase a payment plan
providing monthly income for the lifetime of the Insureds, 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 the 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 $100 a month. 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 AND OTHER POLICIES
 
  Subject to certain requirements, you may elect to add one or more of the
following optional insurance benefits to the Policy by a Rider at the time of
application for your Policy (subject to approval of state insurance
authorities). These optional benefits are: guaranteed payment of a specified
coverage amount upon the death of the Survivor, subject to stated conditions;
provision for level or varying coverage on the same two Insureds; renewable
level or varying term insurance on either Insured, or individually on the
Insureds; allowance to split the Policy into individual policies for each
Insured without evidence of individual insurability; allowance to split the
Policy into individual policies for each Insured subject to evidence of
individual insurability; and Policy Owner access to a portion of the Policy's
proceeds if an Insured has been diagnosed with a terminal illness resulting in
a life expectancy of six months or less (or such other period that may be
required by state insurance authorities). The cost of any additional insurance
benefits will be deducted as part of the monthly deduction against Accumulated
Value. See "Charges and Deductions". The amounts of these benefits are fully
guaranteed at issue. Certain restrictions may apply and are described in the
applicable Rider or Benefit. Under certain circumstances, a Policy can be
combined with an added protection benefit to result in a combined coverage
amount (face amount) equal to the same Face Amount that could be acquired
under a single policy. For given Insureds, combining a Policy and a benefit
may result in a Face Amount component of the mortality and expense risk charge
for a Policy that are lower than the single Policy providing the same Face
Amount. We offer other variable life insurance policies that provide insurance
protection on the lives of two insureds or on the life of a single insured,
whose loads and charges may vary. An insurance agent authorized to sell the
Policy can describe these extra optional benefits and other policies further.
Samples of the provisions for the extra optional benefits are available from
us 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 purposes may obtain additional
information from us. 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 access Accumulated Value as a source of retirement
income for a period of time. This use of a Policy does not alter an Owner's
rights or our obligations under a Policy; the Policy would remain a life
insurance contract that, so long as it remains in force, provides for a death
benefit payable when the Survivor dies.
 
  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 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 the Policy as a funding vehicle for retirement income purposes
presents several risks, including the risk that if the Policy is
insufficiently funded in relation to the income stream from the Policy, the
Policy can lapse prematurely and result in significant income tax liability to
the Owner in the year in which the lapse occurs. Other risks associated with
borrowing from the Policy also apply. Loans will be automatically repaid from
the gross death benefit at the death of the Survivor, 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, the loan will be automatically repaid, resulting in the payment to
you of the Net Cash Surrender Value. Similarly, upon lapse, the loan will be
automatically repaid. The automatic repayment of the loan upon lapse or
surrender will cause the recognition of taxable income to the extent that Net
Cash Surrender Value plus the amount of the repaid loan exceeds your basis in
the Policy. Thus, under certain circumstances, surrender or lapse of the
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". Thus, you should be careful to fashion a life insurance
plan so that the Policy will not lapse prematurely under various market
scenarios as a result of withdrawals and loans taken from the Policy.
 
  The Policy will lapse if your Net Cash Surrender Value 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.
 
  Further, interest on a Policy loan is due to us 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
 
                                      35
<PAGE>
 
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 attorney and financial advisers in designing a
life insurance retirement plan that is suitable. Further, you should continue
to monitor the Accumulated Value net of loans remaining in a Policy to assure
that the Policy 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.
 
DISTRIBUTION OF THE POLICY
 
  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, Inc. ("NASD"). We pay PMD for acting as
principal underwriter under a Distribution Agreement. PMD is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Pacific Mutual. PMD's principal business address is 700 Newport
Center Drive, Newport Beach, California 92660.
 
  We 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 and is based on predefined premium receipt levels
(called "targets") and the year in which premiums are received. The targets
are equal to a specified amount that varies with the Joint Equal Age of the
Insureds for each $1000 of a Policy's initial Face Amount in accordance with a
schedule shown in Appendix B. Compensation is not expected to exceed 30% of
premiums paid up to the first target, 24% of the premiums paid under targets
2-5, and on the premium in excess of the sum of targets 1-5, 6% of premiums
paid in Policy years 1-10 and 4% of premiums paid thereafter. Broker-dealers
may also receive annual renewal compensation of up to .20% of Accumulated
Value less Policy Debt. The annual renewal compensation will be computed
monthly and payable on each Policy Anniversary. 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 and may
elect to receive compensation on a deferred basis. We make no separate
deductions, other than as previously described, from premiums to pay sales
commissions or sales expenses.

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
 
  A Policy Owner may request a transfer of Accumulated Value or a Policy Loan
by telephone if a properly completed Authorization for Telephone Requests
("Telephone Authorization") has been 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), Policy Owners might not be able
to request transfers and loans by telephone and would have to submit written
requests.
 
  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 the submission of a Telephone
Authorization, you authorize us to accept and act upon telephone instructions
for transfers or loans involving your Policy, and agree that neither we, any
of our affiliates, Pacific Select Fund, nor any of our or 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 its 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.
 
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
  There are no legal proceedings pending to which the Separate Account is a
party, or which would materially affect the Separate Account.

                          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.

                     PACIFIC SELECT EXEC SEPARATE ACCOUNT

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)


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 twelve subaccounts called Variable
Accounts:  the Money Market Variable Account, the High Yield Bond Variable
Account, the Managed Bond Variable Account, the Government Securities Variable
Account, the Growth Variable Account, the Aggressive Equity Variable Account
(Note 5), the Growth LT Variable Account, the Equity Income Variable Account,
the Multi-Strategy Variable Account, the Equity Index Variable Account, the
International Variable Account, and the Emerging Markets Variable Account (Note
5). 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 1996, 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 Mutual Distributors, Inc. (formerly known as 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.

5. AGGRESSIVE EQUITY VARIABLE ACCOUNT AND EMERGING MARKETS VARIABLE ACCOUNT

   The Separate Account has organized and registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission two new Variable Accounts, the Aggressive Equity Variable
Account and the Emerging Markets Variable Account.  Both Variable Accounts
commenced operations on April 8, 1996.

    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.

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.

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 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

    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.

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:

    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.

    The assumed health care cost trend rate used in measuring the accumulated
    benefit obligation was 10% for 1995 and 11% for 1994, and is assumed to
    decrease gradually to 5% in 2003 and remain at that level thereafter. The

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.

    opinion of management, the outcome of these proceedings is not likely to
    have a material adverse effect on the financial position of Pacific
    Mutual.

                          NOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)
 
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    The information set forth in the statement of financial position as of
    September 30, 1996 and the statements of operations and surplus and of
    cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 is
    unaudited. The information reflects all adjustments, consisting only of
    normal recurring adjustments, that, in the opinion of management, are
    necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of
    operations of Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company ("Pacific Mutual")
    for the periods indicated. Results of operations for the interim periods
    are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full
    year. For further information, refer to the financial statements and
    footnotes thereto included in Pacific Mutual's audited financial
    statements for the years ended December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994.
 
    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 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 December 31, 1996 general purpose
    financial statements reflecting the adoption of all applicable GAAP
    pronouncements.

                                 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 are illustrated based on the Guideline Premium Test and include
the following:
 
  Death Benefit Option A, Face Amount $1,500,000, Annual Premium $33,456,
  male nonsmoker, issue Age 55, and female nonsmoker, issue Age 55, current
  cost of insurance rates.
 
  Death Benefit Option A, Face Amount $1,500,000, Annual Premium $33,456,
  male nonsmoker, issue Age 55, and female nonsmoker, issue Age 55,
  guaranteed cost of insurance rates.
 
  Death Benefit Option B, Face Amount $1,500,000, Annual Premium $126,322,
  male nonsmoker, issue Age 55, and female nonsmoker, issue Age 55, current
  cost of insurance rates.
 
  Death Benefit Option B, Face Amount $1,500,000, Annual Premium $126,322,
  male nonsmoker, issue Age 55, and female nonsmoker, issue Age 55,
  guaranteed cost of insurance rates.
 
  Death Benefit Option C, Face Amount $1,500,000, Annual Premium $81,176,
  male nonsmoker, issue Age 55, and female nonsmoker, issue Age 55, current
  cost of insurance rates.
 
  Death Benefit Option C, Face Amount $1,500,000, Annual Premium $81,176,
  male nonsmoker, issue Age 55, and female nonsmoker, issue Age 55,
  guaranteed cost of insurance rates.
 
  Death Benefit Option D, Face Amount $1,500,000, Annual Premium $54,601,
  male nonsmoker, issue Age 55, and female nonsmoker, issue Age 55, current
  cost of insurance rates.
 
  Death Benefit Option D, Face Amount $1,500,000, Annual Premium $54,601,
  male nonsmoker, issue Age 55, and female nonsmoker, issue Age 55,
  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 Fund's 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 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 fees, operating
expenses and any foreign taxes. Foreign taxes (annualized) for the six month
period ended June 30, 1996 were 0.55% of the average daily net assets of the
International Portfolio, 0.07% for the Equity Income Portfolio, 0.01% for the
Multi-Strategy Portfolio, 0.02% for the Equity Index Portfolio, 0.04% for the
Growth LT Portfolio and 0.27% for the Emerging Markets Portfolio. SEE "Summary
of the Policy: Fund Annual Expenses After Expense Limitation" for more
complete information on Fund investment advisory fees and operating expenses.

<PAGE>
 
  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 -0.87%, 5.08%, and
11.03%. 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 Insureds' Ages, underwriting classes, 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.

                                  APPENDIX A
 
                  DESCRIPTION OF JOINT EQUAL AGE CALCULATION
 
1. A Joint Equal Age (JEA) conversion changes many possible combinations of
   Ages, risk classes, substandard ratings and sexes for two lives into a "two
   life status" in which both Insureds are assumed to have the same Age, sex
   (both always male), and risk class (both nonsmoker, or smoker).
 
2. Certain Policy charges are based on the JEA determined at issue. JEA
   eliminates many of the tables needed when Age rates are used. JEA will be
   used to determine the rates per $1000 of initial Face Amount for the Sales
   Surrender Target, underwriting surrender charge and the Face Amount
   component of the mortality and expense risk charge. JEA determined at issue
   is also used to determine the death benefit under Death Benefit Option D.
   Age is used for cost of insurance rates, both current and guaranteed.
 
3. To calculate JEA, the two Ages are each converted to an adjusted Age, the
   difference in adjusted Ages is converted to an Age add-on, and the Age add-
   on is added to the younger adjusted Age. The steps are as follows:
 
   a. Smoker Age Adjustment:
 
    If both Insureds are smoker or both Insureds are nonsmoker, no smoker
    adjustment is made. If exactly one Insured is a smoker, the Age of the
    smoker is adjusted as follows:
 
<TABLE>

         1 unisex         +5
         2                0
</TABLE>
 
   b. Sex Age Adjustment:
 
      Each female Insured has a 5 year Age reduction. Each male Insured has a
      0 year Age reduction. Each unisex Insured has a 1 year Age reduction.
 
   c. Table rating Age adjustment:
 
    The substandard Table ratings represent a multiple of standard
    mortality rates. An Age adjustment will be added to each Insured with a
    substandard Table rating as follows:

</TABLE>
 
    The adjusted Age for substandard is capped at Age 100.
 
    For uninsurable Insureds, the adjusted Age will always be 100,
    independently of the Age and sex of the uninsurable Insureds. (We
    reserve the right to reject an application for a policy.)

  d. After the Ages are adjusted for sex, smoker, and table ratings, the
     younger adjusted Age is subtracted from the older adjusted Age. The
     difference is used to determine an adjusted Age add-on.

FROM
     Clement B. Penrose
SUBJECT
     PACIFIC SELECT EXEC SEPARATE ACCOUNT


RECOMMENDATION:
- -------------- 

That you authorize the establishment of the Pacific Select Exec Separate
Account, as requested in the attached May 11, 1988 memo from Ms. Ledger and Mr.
Hezzelwood.

WHY RECOMMENDATION IS SUBMITTED AT THIS TIME:
- -------------------------------------------- 

Documentation of this authorization must accompany the registration filing about
to be made with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the Pacific Select
Exec Individual Flexible Premium Variable Life Insurance Policy.

BACKGROUND:
- ---------- 

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.

OTHERS CONSULTED:

Mr. Joanning concurs in this recommendation.

OFFICE MEMORANDUM

DATE: January 26, 1993

TO:  Mr. Thomas C. Sutton

FROM: Arthur Kesselhaut

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.

AUTHORIZATION:

On behalf of Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company, the Pacific Select Exec
Separate Account is hereby authorized to be used in connection with additional

                             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, PEN is registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the "Securities Exchange Act") and is a member of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"); and

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
<PAGE>
 
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 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.
<PAGE>
 
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 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
general agent and their agents, representatives or sub-agents who are licensed,
registered and otherwise qualified to sell the Contracts; calculating and
furnishing the fees payable to Brokers or general agents; and for furnishing
periodic reports to Pacific Mutual as to the sale of Contracts made pursuant to
this Agreement.

10.  Records.  Pen shall maintain and preserve such records as are required of
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
<PAGE>
 
general agents to sell Contracts under agreements entered into pursuant to
Section 2, hereof, in amounts as may be agreed to by Pacific Mutual and PEN
specified in such written agreements.

12.  Investigation and Proceedings.  PEN and Pacific Mutual agree to cooperate
fully in any 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
<PAGE>
 
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; 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
an officer, director, employee, or agent of PEN, who may be or become an
officer, director, employee, or agent of Pacific Mutual or the Separate Account
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
for PEN and not as an officer, director, employee, or agent or one under the
control or direction of Pacific Mutual or the Separate Account even though paid
by Pacific Mutual or the Separate Account.

15.  Books and Records.  It is expressly understood and agreed that all
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
<PAGE>
 
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.

16.  Employees.  PEN will not employ, except with the prior written approval of
the Commissioner of Insurance of the state of California, in any material
connection with the handling of the Separate Account's assets any person who, to
the knowledge of PEN:

     (a) in the last 10 years has been convicted of any felony or misdemeanor
     arising out of conduct involving embezzlement, fraudulent conversion, or
     misappropriation of funds or securities, or involving violations of
     Sections 1341, 1342, or 1343 of Title 18, United States Code; or

     (b) within the last 10 years has been found by any state regulatory

     regulatory authorities to have violated or have acknowledged violation of

assignment without the prior written consent of both parties.  This Agreement
may be terminated at any time, for any reason, by either party on 60 days'
written notice to the other party, without the payment of any penalty. Upon
termination of this Agreement, all authorizations, rights and obligations shall
cease except the obligation to settle accounts hereunder, including commissions
on premiums subsequently received for Contracts in effect at time of
termination, and the agreements contained in Sections 12 and 13 hereof.

18.  Regulation.  This Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of the 1940
Act and the Securities Exchange Act and the rules, regulations and rulings
thereunder, and of the applicable rules and regulations of the NASD, and
applicable state insurance law and other applicable law, from time to time in
effect, and the terms hereof shall be interpreted and construed in accordance

<PAGE>
 
                                      II.
                     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.

                                      III.
                 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.

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 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.

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.

                                       6
<PAGE>
 
B.  LIMITATIONS

  The Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent are independent contractors with
respect to Pacific Mutual and PEN.  No party other than Pacific Mutual and or
PEN, as the case may be, shall have the authority to: (i) make, alter or
discharge any Contract issued by Pacific Mutual; (ii) waive any forfeiture or
extend the time of making any payments; (iii) enter into any proceeding in a
court of law or before a regulatory agency in the name of or on behalf of
Pacific Mutual or PEN; (iv) contract for the expenditure of funds of Pacific
Mutual or PEN; (v) alter the forms which PEN prescribes, or substitute other
forms in place of those prescribed by PEN.

C.  FIDELITY BOND AND OTHER LIABILITY COVERAGE

  Selling Broker-Dealer and General Agent each represent that all directors,
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

  This Agreement shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the
parties to it and their respective successors and assigns provided that neither
Selling Broker-Dealer nor General Agent may assign this Agreement or any rights
or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Pacific Mutual.

E.  REGULATIONS

  All parties agree to observe and comply with the existing laws and rules or
regulations of applicable local, state, or federal regulatory authorities and
with those which may be enacted or adopted during the term of this Agreement
regulating the business contemplated hereby in any jurisdiction in which the
business described herein is to be transacted.

F.  INDEMNIFICATION

Dealer and General Agent, their officers, directors, agents and employees,
against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may
become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, or other federal or state
statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or
are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact or any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be
stated or necessary to make the statements made not misleading in the
registration statement for the Contracts or for the shares of Pacific Select
Fund (the "Fund") filed pursuant to the 1933 Act, or any prospectus included as

Face Amount of the base policy or any rider, a change in the target amount of
any benefit, or addition of riders or  benefits after the policy date.

EVIDENCE OF INSURABILITY --- is information, including medical information,
satisfactory to the company that is used to determine each insured's risk
classification.

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

FACE AMOUNT --- is the amount used to determine the policy's death benefit.  The
initial Face Amount is shown on page 3.

SURVIVOR --- is the insured remaining alive after the first death of the two
insureds that occurs while this policy is in force.

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

SEPARATE ACCOUNT --- refers to the Pacific Select Exec Separate Account which is
a separate account of PM that consists of subaccounts, which may be referred to
as Variable Accounts.  Each Variable Account may invest its assets in a separate
class of shares of a designated investment company or companies.

VARIABLE ACCOUNT --- A separate account of PM or a subaccount of a PM separate
account in which assets of PM are segregated from its assets in PM's general
account and other separate accounts and to which premiums and Accumulated Value
under this policy may be allocated for variable accumulation.

OWNER AND BENEFICIARY

OWNER --- The owner of this policy is shown on the policy specifications pages.
A change of  owner may be made by written request on forms provided by PM.  A
change of owner will take place only when recorded at our Home Office.  When
recorded, such change will take effect as of the date the written request was
signed.  If there are two or more owners, they will own this policy as joint
tenants with right of survivorship unless otherwise stated.

ASSIGNMENT --- This policy may be assigned at any time.  PM is not bound by any
assignment unless it is in writing and recorded at our Home Office.  We are not
responsible for the validity of any assignment.

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

A change of beneficiary may be made by written request on forms provided by PM
while either insured is living.  The change will take place as of the date the
request is signed.

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 before the initial premium is
paid.  No premium may be less than $50.  Premiums may be paid at any time
subject to the limitations described in the Premium Limitation provision.
Premiums are payable either at our Home Office or to an agent of the Company.
Upon written request, we will give you a premium receipt signed by a Company
officer.

                                    Page 5
<PAGE>
 
PREMIUM ALLOCATION --- The initial premium, less the Premium Load, will be
allocated to the Fixed and Variable Accounts according to the premium allocation
specified in the application or your most recent instructions received by us, if
any.

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.

PREMIUM LIMITATION --- 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.
No premium payment will be accepted after the youngest insured reaches age 100.

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 on 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 Guideline Premium changes
will be shown in a supplemental schedule of benefits and premiums that we will
send to you.

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 the Guideline Premium 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.

In order for this policy to avoid being treated as a Modified Endowment Contract
(MEC), the sum of premiums paid less a portion of any Withdrawals may not exceed
the 7-Pay limit as defined in the Internal Revenue Code.  In the event that a
premium payment would exceed the 7-Pay limit, we reserve the right to refund the
excess payment to the owner, unless the owner has previously notified us in
writing that payments that cause this policy to become a MEC may be accepted by
us and applied to the policy.

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.

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 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:

   --- a written application;

   --- evidence of insurability satisfactory to us for each insured living as of
   the beginning of the grace period;

   --- 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 premium payment, less the Premium Load,
to the Fixed and Variable Accounts according to your most recent premium
allocation instructions.


                                    Page 6
<PAGE>
 
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 is 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.

OPTION C --- The death benefit is the greater of:

   --- the Face Amount plus the sum of the premiums paid to the date of death
   minus the sum of any partial withdrawals taken and any other distribution of
   the Accumulated Value to the date of death; or

   --- the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit.

OPTION D --- The death benefit is the greater of:

   --- the Face Amount times the death benefit factor for the current policy
   year as shown on the policy specifications pages; 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. The original election of the Death
Benefit Option may not be changed until after completion of the fifth policy
year.  Thereafter, the Death Benefit Option may be changed to Option A or B upon
written request at a maximum of once per policy year.  Changes to Option C or D
will not be permitted.  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 change will be effective on the monthly
payment date on or next following the day the written request is received by us
at PM's Home Office.

Unless specified otherwise by you in writing, any request for a death benefit
option change will not be processed if the option change would cause the policy
to be treated as a MEC.

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

The age is the age of the younger insured at issue, increased by the number of
complete policy years elapsed.

PM reserves the right to reduce the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit by requiring
partial withdrawals be made in order to maintain the net amount at risk at a
level that will not exceed three times the Death Benefit on the Policy Date.
The net amount at risk is the difference between the Death Benefit and the
Accumulated Value.

This policy is intended to qualify as a life insurance contract under the
Internal Revenue Code for Federal tax purposes, and the death benefit under this
policy is intended to qualify for the income tax exclusion under the Internal
Revenue Code.  To that end, the provisions of this policy, including any other
rider, benefit, or endorsement, are to be interpreted to ensure such tax
qualification, notwithstanding any other provisions to the contrary.


                                    Page 7
<PAGE>
 
If at any time the premiums paid under this policy exceed the amount allowable
for such tax qualification, such excess amount shall be removed from the policy
as of the date of its payment, and any appropriate adjustment in the death
benefit shall be made as of such date.  This excess amount shall be refunded to
the Owner no later than 60 days after the end of the applicable contract year.
We shall adjust the excess amount refunded for interest from the date of its
payment or for changes in Accumulated Value attributable to the excess amount.
If the excess amount is not refunded by then, the death benefit under this
policy shall be increased retroactively and prospectively so that at no time is
this death benefit ever less than the amount needed to ensure such tax
qualification. To the extent that the death benefit as of any time is increased
by this provision, appropriate adjustments shall be made retroactively in any
cost of insurance or supplemental benefits as of that time that are consistent
with such an increase.

Unless specified otherwise by you in writing, it is intended that this policy
will not be treated as a Modified Endowment Contract (MEC) under the Internal
Revenue Code.  To that end, the provisions of this policy, including any other
rider, benefit or endorsement, are to be interpreted to prevent the policy from
being subject to such treatment, notwithstanding any other provisions to the
contrary.

If at any time the premiums or other amounts paid under the policy exceed the
limit for avoiding such MEC treatment, unless otherwise specified in writing by
you that such MEC treatment is acceptable, such excess amount shall be removed
from the policy as of the date of its payment, and any appropriate adjustment in
the policy's death benefit shall be made as of such date.  This excess amount
shall be refunded to the owner no later than 60 days after the end of the
applicable contract year.  We shall adjust the excess amount refunded for
interest from the date of its payment or for changes in Accumulated Value
attributable to the excess amount.  If this excess amount is not refunded by
then, the death benefit under the policy shall be increased retroactively and
prospectively to the minimum amount necessary (e.g., to the end of any test
period) so that at no time is this death benefit ever less than the amount
needed to avoid such MEC treatment.  To the extent that the death benefit as of
any time is increased by this provision, appropriate adjustments shall be made,
retroactively or otherwise, in any cost of insurance or supplemental benefits as
of that time that are consistent with such an increase.

DEATH BENEFIT PROCEEDS --- When we receive proof that both insureds' deaths
occurred while this policy was in force, we will pay the death proceeds in
effect for this policy as of the date of the survivor's death.  If both insureds
die either simultaneously or in circumstances where it is not clear which
insured died first, the older of the two insureds will be deemed to be the
survivor.  Proof of death of each insured should be sent to the Home Office or
to an agent of the Company within 90 days of death.

We will pay the death benefit proceeds to the beneficiary.  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 the grace period.  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.

We will pay interest on death benefit proceeds from the date of the Survivor's
death to the date of payment at a rate not less than 4%, or if higher, the
interest rate required by the state in which this policy is issued.

DECREASE PROVISION  --- Subject to PM's approval, the owner may decrease the
Face Amount of insurance if such request is made:

   --- while either or both insureds are living;

   --- after the first policy year;

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

   --- in writing while this policy is in force.

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.

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.


                                    Page 8
<PAGE>
 
The request for a decrease in the face amount will be subject to the Guideline
Premiums Limitation as defined in the Internal Revenue Code.  This may result in
a refund of premiums and/or the distribution of Accumulated Value in order to
maintain compliance with such limitations.  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 our minimum issue limit in effect on
the date of the request.

Unless specified otherwise by you in writing, no request for a face amount
decrease will be  processed if the decrease would cause the policy to be treated
as a MEC.

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 and any interest
credited thereon.

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 from 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;

   --- 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.

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 that both the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and Pacific
Mutual's administrative offices are open. If any transaction or event is
scheduled to occur on a day that is not a Valuation Date, such transaction or
event will be deemed to occur on the next following Valuation Date unless
otherwise specified.


                                    Page 9
<PAGE>
 
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 an annual effective rate of 4%.  At our discretion, we may credit
a higher rate of interest periodically.  We will credit interest on the amount
in the Loan Account at a rate of .32737% per month, compounded monthly.  This is
equivalent to an annual effective rate of 4%.

On each policy anniversary, any interest earned and held in the Loan Account
will be transferred to the Fixed and Variable Accounts in accordance with your
most recent premium allocation instructions.

TRANSFERS --- 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.

Transfers from the Fixed Account to the Variable Accounts will be limited to the
greater of 25% of the Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account or $5,000 in any
year.  Transfers from the Variable Accounts to the Fixed Account may be made
only during the policy month preceding each policy anniversary.

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.

POLICY CHARGES

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;

   --- the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge; and

   --- the monthly charge of any riders or 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 policy face amount.

The monthly Cost of Insurance Charge for the death benefit payable under this
policy is determined as follows:  (1) is 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
   1.00327374; 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.

COST OF INSURANCE RATES --- The Cost of Insurance Rates are based on the
policy's duration and on the two insureds' ages and risk classifications on the
policy date. 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 pairs of insureds of the same ages,
risk classifications and duration under this policy.

MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE --- The Mortality and Expense Risk Charge is
to compensate us for the risk we assume that mortality and expenses will be
greater than estimated. The Mortality and Expense Risk Charge consists of the
following:

   --- a maximum monthly charge of .00025 (.30% annually) in the first 20 policy
   years; and .000083333 (.10% annually) thereafter, multiplied by the result of
   the Accumulated Value in the Fixed and Variable Accounts at the beginning of
   the policy month less the Cost of Insurance Charge and less the monthly
   charge for any riders or benefits.

   --- a monthly charge equal to the rates shown in the policy specifications
   pages, multiplied by the Face Amount of the policy at issue.

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.  The monthly charge will be set to zero after the youngest
insured reaches age 100.


                                    Page 10
<PAGE>
 
If you already own a policy under PM form 97-56, we will waive the
Administrative Charges of this policy while Administrative Charges are being
paid under the other policy, if the insureds of both policies are the same.
However, we will deduct a charge of $200 from the initial premium of this
policy.

PREMIUM LOAD --- A Premium Load will be charged each time a premium is paid to
cover state premium tax, federal tax and contribute towards covering our sales
and distribution expenses. The Premium Load consists of the following:

   --- a sales load equal to 6% in the first ten policy years and 4% thereafter;

   --- a charge of 2.35% for state premium taxes; and

   --- a charge of 1.50% for federal taxes.

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

We reserve the right to increase the Premium Load with respect to the load for
state premium taxes and federal taxes.  We will only increase the Premium Load
if the effective taxes paid by us increase.

WITHDRAWAL FEE --- A withdrawal fee of $25 will be deducted from the Accumulated
Value each time a partial withdrawal occurs. The withdrawal fee will be deducted
from the Fixed and Variable Accounts in the same proportion as the partial
withdrawal.

OTHER DEDUCTIONS --- In addition to the charges imposed under Premium Load and
elsewhere, we reserve the right to make a charge for federal, state or local
taxes that may be attributable to the Variable Accounts or to our operations
with respect to this policy if we incur any such taxes.

SURRENDER AND WITHDRAWAL OF VALUES

SURRENDER --- Upon written request while either 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 at the Home Office.

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.

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

Upon written request on or after the first policy anniversary while either
insured is living, you may withdraw a portion of the Net Cash Surrender Value of
this policy as a partial withdrawal. The Withdrawal Fee described above will
apply.

A partial withdrawal may cause a decrease in the Face Amount if the Death
Benefit Option is A or D. The Face Amount will be reduced by the excess, if any,
of the Face Amount over the result of (a) minus (b) where:

   --- (a) is the death benefit immediately prior to the partial withdrawal; and

   --- (b) is the amount of the partial withdrawal.

However, for the first withdrawal in each of the first 15 policy years, the Face
Amount will be reduced only to the extent that the withdrawal exceeds the lesser
of $10,000 or 10% of the Cash Surrender Value.

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 the withdrawal
over the result of the debt divided by 90%.

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 survivor dies after the request for a withdrawal is sent to us
and prior to the withdrawal being paid, the amount of the withdrawal will be
deducted from the death benefit proceeds.

Unless specified otherwise by you in writing, no request for a partial
withdrawal will be processed if the partial withdrawal would cause the policy to
be treated as a MEC.

INCOME BENEFITS

INCOME BENEFITS --- Surrender or withdrawal benefits may be used to purchase a
lifetime monthly income. Death benefits may be used to purchase a monthly income
for the lifetime of the beneficiary. Monthly income payments will automatically
be guaranteed to continue for at least ten years, unless another form of payment
is requested. Under the automatic form of payment, if the income recipient dies
before the end of the ten-year period, payments will continue to the end of the
ten-year period to a person designated by the income recipient in writing.

Other options of monthly income benefits are available upon request.  We may
require evidence of the income recipient's survival when monthly income payments
have been made for more than ten years.

The purchase rates for the monthly income will be set periodically by the
Company.  However, under the automatic form, the monthly income bought by each
$1000 of benefit amount will always be at least as large as that shown below.

Monthly income amounts for ages not shown are halfway between the two amounts
for the nearest two ages which are shown.

Guaranteed amounts for ages under 30 are the same as those for age 30;
guaranteed amounts for ages over 75 are the same as those for age 75. Amounts
shown are based on 1983 Table a mortality with interest at 3%.  This benefit is
not available if the income would be less than $100 a month.

POLICY LOANS

POLICY LOANS --- You may obtain loans by written request while this policy is in
force 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.  The minimum amount of a loan must be at least $500.

PM may defer granting a loan for up to six months from the date of request.
However, we will not defer payment of any loan if it is to be used to pay the
premium on any policy currently in force and issued by the company.

LOAN INTEREST --- Interest will accrue daily and is payable in arrears at the
annual rate of:

   --- 4.50% for years one through ten; and

   --- 4.25% for years eleven and after.

Any loan 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 from the Fixed and Variable Accounts into the Loan Account to secure
the loan.  Unless you request otherwise, loan amounts will be deducted from the
Fixed and Variable Accounts 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
premium payment, unless you tell us in writing it is a loan payment.

GENERAL PROVISIONS

ENTIRE CONTRACT --- This policy is a contract between the 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, riders or benefits are the entire contract.

Only the Chief Executive Officer, President or Secretary of PM is permitted to
change this contract or waive any of its terms.  The change must be in writing.

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 or any subsequent applications.

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 with respect to a given
   insured after the policy has been in force during that insured's lifetime for
   two years from the policy date.

If this policy has been reinstated, it cannot be contested with respect to a
given insured after it has been in force during that insured's lifetime for two
years from the date of reinstatement.  Except for failure to pay premiums, in no
event will a contest be made after reinstatement unless there is a material
misrepresentation in the reinstatement application.

This policy will terminate upon successful contest with respect to either
insured.

PARTICIPATING --- 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 annually.

SUICIDE EXCLUSION --- If either 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 partial withdrawal amounts, and any dividends paid by us in cash.

MISSTATEMENT --- If there is a misstatement of either insured's age or sex in
the application, the Face Amount shall be adjusted as follows in order to
reflect the correct age or sex.  The adjusted Face Amount shall equal (a) times
(b) divided by (c) where:

   (a) is the Face Amount before this adjustment;

   (b) is the monthly Cost of Insurance Rate actually used to calculate Cost of
   Insurance Charges in the policy year in which the misstatement is discovered,
   based on the misstated age or sex; and

   (c) is the monthly Cost of Insurance Rate for the policy year in which the
   misstatement is discovered, based on the correct age and sex.

For all policy months after the policy month in which the misstatement is
discovered, the Accumulated Value will be calculated using Cost of Insurance
Charges, Rider Charges and Benefit Charges based on the correct age and sex.
The Accumulated Value for the policy months through the month in which the
misstatement is discovered will not be recalculated.  Mortality and Expense Risk
Charges will not be recalculated.

If unisex Cost of Insurance Rates apply, no adjustment will be made for a
misstatement of sex.

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

   --- the Accumulated Value;

   --- the Cash Surrender Value;

   --- the current death benefit;

   --- transactions that occurred during the policy quarter;

   --- existing debt;

   --- changes in the Guideline Premiums; and

   --- any information required by law.

In addition to the above reports, we will send you annual financial statements
for the Separate Account and annual and semi-annual financial statements for 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 and/or
any other reports as required by federal securities law.

                                    Page 13
<PAGE>
 
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, not to exceed $25.00, for
this service.

BASIS OF VALUES --- A detailed statement showing how values are determined has
been filed with the state insurance department.  No values are less than the
minimums required by the Standard Nonforfeiture Law and by the law in the state
in which this policy is delivered.  All guaranteed values and the guaranteed
maximum monthly Cost of Insurance Rates are based on the 1980 CSO Mortality
Table (ANB) and interest at the rate of 4% per year.  For policies that are
issued on a unisex basis, the 1980 CSO Mortality Table B (ANB) applies.

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.

PAYMENTS

VARIABLE ACCOUNTS --- We will calculate the Net Cash Surrender Value on
surrender, partial withdrawals, and loan proceeds based on allocations made to
the Variable Accounts, and unless transfers are restricted, transfers between
Variable Accounts or from Variable Accounts to the Fixed Account based on
allocations made to the Variable Accounts as of the end of the Valuation Date on
or next following the day on which such instructions are received. We will
calculate death benefit proceeds based on allocations made to the Variable
Accounts as of the end of the Valuation Date on or next following the day on
which the survivor's death occurs. We will pay such amounts and will effect a
transfer between Variable Accounts within seven days after we receive all the
information needed to process a payment or transfer.

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, 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 credit 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. However, we will not
defer payment of any such amounts if they are to be used to pay the premium on
any policy issued by the company.

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 or 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 assets.

                                    Page 14
<PAGE>
 
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 any Variable Account under the Investment Company
   Act of 1940;

   --- to change the classification of any Variable Account;

   --- operate any Variable Account as a managed investment company or as a unit
   investment trust;

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

   --- transfer the assets of any Variable Account to other separate accounts or
   subaccounts thereof 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
   any Variable 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;

   --- change the allocations permitted under the policy;

   --- terminate and liquidate any Variable Account; 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
following the filing and other procedures 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.

Accelerated Living Benefit Rider
<PAGE>
 
                        ACCELERATED LIVING BENEFIT RIDER

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 non-correctable 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

   - 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 at 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.

R92-ABR                                1
<PAGE>
 
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.

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.

R92-ABR                                2
<PAGE>
 
   - 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.

which it is attached.

Policy Split Option Rider














<PAGE>
 
                           POLICY SPLIT OPTION RIDER

BENEFIT - You may exchange this policy for two new individual policies, one on
each of the two insureds, subject to this rider's terms.

EXCHANGE CONDITIONS - To exercise this option, you must:

    - request the exchange in writing on a form that we will provide;

    - return the base policy; and

    - provide evidence of insurability satisfactory to us for both insureds.


A $200 Administrative Charge will be deducted from the Accumulated Value of the
base policy on the day prior to the Exchange Date.  This charge is to cover
expenses associated with the evaluation of the evidence of insurability.

We reserve the right to deduct a charge from the base policy's Accumulated Value
to cover PM's expenses arising from any state or federal taxes generated by the
exchange.

EXCHANGE DATE - The exchange will be effective on the Exchange Date, which is
the date all of the above exchange conditions are met.

NEW POLICIES - The exchange may be to any individual flexible premium adjustable
life policy that we regularly issue at the time of exchange, subject to our
approval.  The policy date of each of the two new individual policies will be
the Exchange Date.  The new policy on each insured will be based on that
insured's age and risk classification as of the Exchange Date.  The new policies
will only take effect once the original policy has terminated and will not
provide any insurance until such time.

The Accumulated Value less the Surrender Charge under the original policy on the
day prior to the Exchange Date will be divided and allocated to the two new
individual policies in proportion to their face amounts.  Any policy debt under
the original policy on the day prior to the Exchange Date will also be divided
and allocated to the new policies in proportion to their face amounts.  This
will result in the Cash Surrender Value of each new policy being equal to the
Cash Surrender Value in the original policy multiplied by the face amount of the
new policy and divided by the sum of the face amounts of the two new policies.

The face amount of each new individual policy may be for any amount you elect,
provided that the sum of the face amounts of the two now policies does not
exceed the sum, as of the Exchange Date, of the base policy's Death Benefit plus
the Coverage Amount under the Last Survivor Added Protection Benefit, if such
benefit is attached to the base policy.  Your signature of consent is required
if the face amounts of the two new individual policies are not equal.

Subject to our approval, riders or benefits may be added to the new policies
where available.

ASSIGNMENT - Any assignment of this policy will apply to each new individual
policy.

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

TERMINATION - Coverage under this rider will terminate on the earliest of:

    - your written request; or

    - the date that the first death of the two insureds occurs; or

    - termination of the base policy; or

    - the policy anniversary nearest the 80th birthday of the older of the two

Last Survivor Added Protection Benefit

<PAGE>
 
                     LAST SURVIVOR ADDED PROTECTION BENEFIT


COVERAGE - When we receive proof that the survivor's death occurred while this
benefit was in force, we will pay the Coverage Amount in effect, if any, under
this benefit on the date of the survivor's death.

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.  Unscheduled increases or decreases in
the Coverage Amount may take place after the policy date as described below.

The initial Coverage Amount is the Coverage Amount on this benefit's effective 
date.

UNSCHEDULED INCREASE IN COVERAGE AMOUNT - You may request an unscheduled
increase in the Coverage Amount subject to the following conditions:

   - you provide evidence of insurability satisfactory to us for both insureds;

   - both insureds consent to the increase;

   - the effective date of the increase is after the first policy year;

   - no previous increase became effective during the same policy year;

   - the Coverage Amount is increased by at least $10,000; and

   - we receive your written request for the increase while this policy is in
     force.
     
The effective date of the unscheduled increase in the Coverage Amount will be
the first monthly payment date on or following the date all of the above
conditions are met.

An Administrative Charge of $200 will be deducted from the base policy's
Accumulated Value on the effective date of any unscheduled increase in the
Coverage Amount.  This charge is to cover expenses associated with the
evaluation of the evidence of insurability.

Upon approval of any unscheduled increase, we will issue a supplemental schedule
of coverage, which will include the following information:

   - the effective date of the increase in the Coverage Amount;

   - the amount of the increase;

   - each insured's risk classification for the increase; and 

   - the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates applicable to the
     increase.
     
UNSCHEDULED DECREASE IN COVERAGE AMOUNT - You may request an unscheduled
decrease in the Coverage Amount subject to the following conditions:

   - you request the decrease while either or both insureds are living;

   - the effective date of the decrease is after the first policy year;

   - no previous decrease became effective during the same policy year; and

   - we receive your written request for the decrease while this policy is in
     force.
     
The effective date of the unscheduled decrease in the Coverage Amount will be
the first monthly payment date on or following the date all of the above
conditions are met.  The existing Coverage Amount will be decreased or
eliminated in the following order:

   - first, the most recent increase in the Coverage Amount;

R96-LSAPB                              1
<PAGE>
 
   - then, the next most recent increases successively; and

   - finally, the initial Coverage Amount.

In the case of a Coverage Amount that varies by policy year, any unscheduled
decrease in the Coverage Amount which you request for any policy year will
require equivalent decreases in the Coverage Amount for future policy years.
You will be informed of such equivalent future decreases, and your consent will
be obtained before your requested decrease becomes effective.

Upon approval of any unscheduled decrease, we will issue a supplemental schedule
of coverage, which will include the following information:

   - the effective date of the decrease in the Coverage Amount;

   - the amount of the decrease; and

   - the resulting Coverage Amount remaining in force after the decrease.

BENEFIT CHARGES - The monthly charge for this benefit is equal to the sum of the
Benefit Charges applicable to the following portions of the Coverage Amount:

   - initial Coverage Amount remaining in force for that month; plus

   - each increase in the Coverage Amount remaining in force for that month.

The Benefit Charge for each portion of the Coverage Amount noted above is
obtained by multiplying the applicable monthly Cost of Insurance Rate by the
appropriate portion of the Coverage Amount at the beginning of the policy month
divided by 1.00327374.

If there has been an unscheduled decrease in the Coverage Amount, see the
Unscheduled Decrease in Coverage Amount provision for a description of the order
in which the existing Coverage Amount has been decreased or eliminated.

COST OF INSURANCE RATES - The Cost of Insurance Rates for the initial Coverage
Amount are based on the policy duration and on the two insured's ages and risk
classifications on the policy date.  The Cost of Insurance Rates for each
increase in the Coverage Amount are based on the policy duration applicable to
the increase and on the two insured's ages and risk classifications on the
effective date of the increase.

The current monthly Cost of Insurance Rates will be determined by the
Company 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 on the
policy specifications pages.  Any change in the current Cost of Insurance
Rates will apply uniformly for all pairs of insureds of the same ages, risk
classifications and policy duration under this benefit form.

The Cost of Insurance Rates used to calculate the Cost of Insurance Charges for
an increase in coverage necessary to meet the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit
will be the same as those used for the most recent Coverage Amount in force
under this benefit.

DEATH BENEFIT - The death benefit of the policy to which this benefit is
attached is modified to include the Coverage Amount under this benefit.  The
death benefit for this policy will be determined by the death benefit option
selected for the base policy and will be one of the following:

OPTION A - The death benefit is the greater of:

   - the base policy face amount plus this benefit Coverage Amount; or

   - the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit.

R96-LSAPB                              2
<PAGE>
 
OPTION B - The death benefit is the greater of:

   - the base policy face amount plus this benefit Coverage Amount, plus the
     Accumulated Value on the date of death; or

   - the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit.

OPTION C - The death benefit is the greater of:

   - the base policy face amount plus this benefit Coverage Amount, plus the sum
     of the premiums paid to date minus the sum of any partial withdrawals taken
     and any other distribution of the Accumulated Value to the date of death;
     or

   - the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit.

OPTION D - The death benefit is the greater of:

   - the result of the base policy face amount plus this benefit Coverage
     Amount, times the death benefit factor for the current policy year as shown
     on the policy specifications pages; or

   - the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit.


DECREASE/WITHDRAWALS

DECREASE - The Decrease provision of the policy to which this benefit is
attached is modified to include this benefit. This benefit will always be
decreased or eliminated before any decrease is applied to the base policy face
amount in effect on the policy date. 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 Last Survivor Added Protection Benefit is considered

eliminated before any decrease is applied to the base policy face amount in
effect on the policy date. For details, please see the Withdrawals provision of
your contract.

MISSTATEMENT - The Misstatement provision of the policy, to which this benefit 
is attached, is modified to include this benefit. For the purpose of the 
Misstatement provision, the Last Survior Added Protection Benefit is considered

Misstatement provision of your contract.

described below under the Termination provision.

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

TERMINATION - Coverage under this benefit will terminate on the earlier of:

   - your written request;

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

In the event of any conflict between the terms of this benefit and the terms of
the base policy, the terms of this benefit shall prevail over the terms of the
base policy.

                     INDIVIDUAL ANNUAL RENEWABLE TERM RIDER

COVERED PERSON - As used in this rider, "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 satisfactory to us, added to this
rider.  When this occurs, we will send you revised policy specifications pages.
This rider is only available to the two insureds under the base policy.

COVERAGE - When we receive proof that a Covered Person's death occurred while
this rider was in force, we will pay the Face Amount in effect on that Covered
Person under this rider on the date of that Covered Person's death.

FACE AMOUNT - The Face Amount provided by this rider may be level or varying by
policy year and is shown on the policy specifications pages.  Unscheduled
increases or decreases in the Face Amount may take place after the policy date
as described below.

UNSCHEDULED INCREASE in FACE AMOUNT - You may request an unscheduled increase in
the Face Amount of this rider for any Covered Person subject to the following
conditions:

   - you provide evidence of insurability satisfactory to us for that Covered
     Person;

   - that Covered Person consents to the increase;

   - the effective date of the increase is after the first policy anniversary;

   - no previous increase has been effective during the same policy year;

   - the Face Amount is increased by at least $10,000; and

   - we receive your written request for the increase while this policy is in

are met.

An Administrative Charge of $100 will be deducted from the base policy's
Accumulated Value on the effective date of any unscheduled increase in the Face
Amount of this rider for any Covered Person.

This charge is to cover expenses associated with the evaluation of the evidence
of insurability.

Upon approval of any unscheduled increase, we will issue a supplemental schedule
of coverage, which will include the following information:

   - the effective date of the increase in the Face Amount;

   - the amount of the increase;

   - the risk classification for the increase; and

   - the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates applicable to the
     increase.

UNSCHEDULED DECREASE IN FACE AMOUNT - You may request an unscheduled decrease in

conditions:

   - you request the decrease while that Covered Person is living;

   - the effective date of the decrease is after the first policy year;

   - we receive your written request for the decrease while this policy is in
     force; and

   - first, the most recent increase in the Face Amount on that Covered Person;

<PAGE>
 
   - second, the next most recent increases on that Covered Person successively;
     and

   - finally, the initial Face Amount on that Covered Person.

In the case of a Face Amount that varies by policy year, any unscheduled
decrease in the Face Amount which you request for any policy year will require
associated decreases in the Face Amount for future policy years. You will be
informed of such associated future decreases, and your consent will be obtained
before your requested decrease becomes effective.

Upon approval of any unscheduled decrease, we will issue a supplemental schedule
of coverage, which will include the following information:

   - the effective date of the decrease in the Face Amount; and

   - the amount of the decrease; and 

   - the resulting Face Amount remaining in force after the decrease.


RIDER CHARGES - The monthly charge for this rider is calculated separately for
each Covered Person.  The monthly charge for each Covered Person is equal to the
sum of the Rider Charges applicable to the following portions of the Face
Amount:

   - the portion of the initial Face Amount on that Covered Person remaining in
     force for that month; plus

   - any portion of each increase in the Face Amount on that Covered Person
     remaining in force for that month.


The Rider Charge for each portion of the Face Amount noted above is obtained by
multiplying the applicable monthly Cost of Insurance Rate by the appropriate
Face Amount.

If there has been an unscheduled decrease in the Face Amount, see the
Unscheduled Decrease in Face Amount provision for a description of the order in
which the existing Face Amount has been decreased or eliminated.

COST OF INSURANCE RATES - The Cost of Insurance Rates for the initial Face
Amount are based on each Covered Person's age and risk classification on the
policy date.  The Cost of Insurance Rates for each increase in the Face Amount
are based on each Covered Person's age and risk classification on the effective
date of the increase.

The nonguaranteed monthly Cost of Insurance Rates will be determined by the
Company and are subject to change by us at any time, but will not exceed the
Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates for this rider shown on the
policy specifications pages.  Any change in the nonguaranteed Cost of Insurance
Rates will apply uniformly for all insureds of the same age and risk
classification under this rider form.

RENEWAL - Coverage under this rider is renewable annually until terminated as
described below under the Termination provision.

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

Enhanced Policy Split Option Rider 

<PAGE>
 
                       ENHANCED POLICY SPLIT OPTION RIDER

BENEFIT - While both insureds under the base policy are living, you may exchange
this policy for two new individual policies, one on each of the two insureds,
subject to this rider's terms.  Evidence of insurability will not be required to
exercise this option.

EXCHANGE CONDITIONS - To exercise this option, you must request the exchange in
writing on a form that we will provide, and you must return the base policy
within 90 days after a change in the Federal Estate Tax Law which results in any
of the following:

     1.  complete removal or material limitation of . the Unlimited Marital
     Deduction, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code. A material limitation
     is defined as one which meets at least one of the following two conditions:
 
         a. if the limitation is expressed as a percentage of the estate, the
         limitation must cap the Unlimited Marital Deduction at 50"/'o or less
         of the value of the estate;

         b. if the limitation is expressed as a dollar amount, the limitation
         must cap the Unlimited Marital deduction at an amount which is less
         than the base policy face amount plus any Target Amount under the Last
         Survivor Added Protection Benefit. if such benefit is attached to the
         base policy.

     2.  reduction by 50% or more in the dollar amount of the Federal Unified
     Credit, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code; or

     3.  subtraction of 25% or more from the percentage Federal Estate Tax rate
     that would be applicable to the estate of the surviving spouse.

We reserve the right to deduct a charge from the base policy's Accumulated Value
to cover PM's expenses arising from any state -or federal taxes generated by
the,exchange.

EXCHANGE DATE - The exchange will be effective on the Exchange Date, which is
the date all of the above Exchange Conditions are met.

NEW POLICIES - The exchange may be to any individual flexible premium adjustable
life policy that we regularly issue at the time of exchange, subject to our
approval.  The policy date of each of the two new individual policies will be
the Exchange Date.  The new policy on each insured will be based on that
insured's age as of the Exchange Date, and risk classification as of the date of
the most recent increase in any rider face amount or benefit target amount, or
if there has been no such increase, as of the policy date.  The new policies
will only take effect once the original policy has terminated and will not
provide any insurance until such time.

If either insured's risk classification under this policy is select nonsmoker
and you exchange to a policy that does not have the select nonsmoker risk
classification, the new policy will be issued as nonsmoker.

The Accumulated Value less the Surrender Charge under the original policy on the
day prior to the Exchange Date will be divided and allocated to the two new
individual policies in proportion to their face amounts.  Any pol icy debt under
the original policy on the day prior to the Exchange Date will also be divided
and allocated to the new policies in proportion to their face amounts.  This
will result in the Cash Surrender Value of each new policy being equal to the
Cash Surrender Value in the original policy multiplied by the face amount of the
new policy and divided by the sum of the face amounts of the two new policies.

The face amount of each new individual policy may be for any amount you elect,
up to one half of the sum as of the Exchange Date of the base policy's Death
Benefit plus the Coverage Amount under the Last Survivor Added Protection
Benefit, if such benefit is attached to the base policy.  Your signature of
consent is required if the face amounts of the two new individual policies are
not equal.

R96-EPSO                            Page 1
<PAGE>
 
Subject to availability, riders or benefits may be continued or may be added to
the new policies only upon the provision of evidence of insurability
satisfactory to us.

SUICIDE EXCLUSION AND INCONTESTABILITY - The Suicide Exclusion and
Incontestability provisions will not apply to the new policies provided that
they have expired under the original policy.

If these provisions have not expired under the original policy, the time
remaining under these provisions will be transferred to each new policy.

Any new riders or new benefits added to the new policies will be subject to the
Suicide Exclusion and Incontestability provisions of the base policies.

ASSIGNMENT - Any assignment of this policy will apply to each new individual
policy.

EFFECTIVE DATE - This rider is effective on the policy date.

Termination - Coverage under this rider will terminate on the earliest of:

     - your written request; or

     - the date that the first death of the two insureds occurs under this
       policy; or

     - termination of the base policy; or

     - the policy anniversary nearest the 80th birthday of the older of the two
       insureds; or

     - exercise of the option to exchange this policy under this rider.

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

In the event of any conflict between the terms of this rider and the terms of
the base policy, the terms of this rider shall prevail over the terms of the
base policy.

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

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
chairman.

WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, the Fund is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") as an open-end management investment company under the Investment

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

an investment medium for Variable Contracts offered by insurance companies that

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

accounts funding variable annuity contracts or scheduled or flexible premium
variable life insurance contracts of both affiliated and unaffiliated life

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

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

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

of each shall not give any information or make any representations on behalf of

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.

the 1933 Act), Statements of Additional Information, reports, solicitations for
voting instructions, and all amendments or supplements to any of the above, that

promptly after the filing of such document with the SEC or other regulatory
authority.

promotional material" includes, but is not limited to, advertisements (such as

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

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

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

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

<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

time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the

I represent that the foregoing answers and statements contained in Parts I and 
II are correctly recorded, complete, and true to the best of my knowledge and 
belief. I understand that:

(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 Senior Vice-President and General Counsel of Pacific Mutual
Life Insurance Company ("Pacific Mutual") I, or attorneys employed by Pacific
Mutual under my general supervision, have supervised the establishment of
Pacific Select Exec Separate Account of Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company
which has been authorized by resolutions of the Board of Directors of Pacific
Mutual adopted November 20, 1986 and November 22, 1989 and Memoranda dated
May 12, 1988 and July 26, 1993 concerning Pacific Select Exec Separate Account
as the separate account for assets applicable to Select Estate Preserver II Last
Survivor Flexible Premium Variable Life Insurance Policies ("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 interests in the Pacific Select Exec Separate Account
funding the Policies.

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 Policies is not chargeable with
liabilities arising out of any other business Pacific Mutual may conduct,
pursuant to the aforesaid provision of California law.

<PAGE>
 

4. The 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, except as limited by
bankruptcy and insolvency laws effecting the rights of creditors generally.

I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement.
 
Very truly yours,

RE:  Pacific Select Estate Preserver II Last Survivor Flexible Premium Variable 
     Life Insurance Policy

To whom it may concern:

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

The preparation of 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 Insureds of the policies at age 55 in the 
underwriting classes illustrated than to prospective Insureds of Policies at 
other ages or underwriting classes.

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

Sincerely,


/s/ PIERRE DELISLE

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 Pacific Select Estate Preserver II Flexible
Premium Joint Survivorship Variable Life Insurance Policy ("Policy"), the
transfer of assets held under the Policies, and the redemption by Policy owners
of their interests in said Policies.

I.   PURCHASE AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

     A.   Premium Schedules and Underwriting Standards
          --------------------------------------------

     The Policy is a flexible premium joint survivorship variable life insurance
policy.  The Policy provides lifetime insurance protection on the lives of two
insureds named in the Policy, with a death benefit payable when the last
surviving insured dies while the Policy is in force.  A Policy owner may elect
one of four 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 classes of the insureds.  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 insureds are 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 first become obligated under a Policy when the total initial premium is
received or on the date the application is accepted by Pacific Mutual, whichever
is later.

     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 premium is received at Pacific Mutual's home office, or, if later, the date
the application is accepted.  The Policy date is the date used to determine
Policy years, Policy months, and Policy monthly, quarterly, semi-annual and
annual anniversaries.

                                       1
<PAGE>
 
     C.   Additional Premium Payments
          ---------------------------

     The Policy is a flexible premium policy, and it provides flexibility to pay
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 of fixed intervals over a specified period of time. Each
Policy owner will receive a premium reminder notice on either an annual, semi-
annual, or quarterly 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.  When an application is approved and a Policy is issued, the
Accumulated Value will be automatically allocated according to the Policy
owner's instructions in the application or more recent instructions if any
(except for amounts allocated to the Loan Account to secure any Debt). The
initial allocation must be made in the application for the Policy.  For
residents of states that require a refund of premium, 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 (Free Look Right)), 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 signed, or
if longer, upon receipt of the minimum initial premium (the Free Look Transfer
Date).

     Additional net premium payments will be allocated among the investment
alternatives according to the Policy owner's instructions (after the Free-Look
Transfer Date if the owner resides in a state that requires refund of premium if
the owner exercises his or her Free Look Right).  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 6 of this document) at any time within five years after
the end of the grace period, provided Pacific Mutual receives the following:
(1) a written application of the Policy owner; (2) evidence of insurability
satisfactory to Pacific Mutual for each insured; and (3) payment of all monthly
charges

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
and deductions that were due and unpaid during the grace period, and payment of
a premium at least equal to three times the most recent monthly deduction.

     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 debt on the date of
lapse and no Policy debt will exist on the date of reinstatement; (2) if the
Policy is reinstated on the monthly payment date next following lapse, any
Policy debt 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 debt 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 debt 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 the greater
of (1) 100% of accumulated value allocated to the fixed account and 90% of the
Policy's accumulated value allocated to the variable accounts, less any
outstanding Policy debt, or (2) 100% of the product of (a X b/c - d) where (a)
equals the Policy's accumulated value 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 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 4.50% for years one through twenty, and 4.25%
thereafter. 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 debt will reduce the amount of death proceeds paid upon the
death of the surviving insured, the cash surrender value paid upon surrender, or
the refund of premium upon exercise of the free-look right.

     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.

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
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 fourteen variable accounts which invest
in shares of a corresponding portfolio of Pacific Select Fund (the "Fund"), the
investment vehicle of the Separate Account. The Fund is registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as
an open-end management investment company of the series type. The portfolios of
the Fund, each of which has a different investment objective, 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 Portfolio, the Bond and Income Portfolio, the
Equity Index Portfolio, the International Portfolio, and the Emerging Markets
Portfolio.

     A Policy owner may allocate accumulated value among the variable accounts
in any way he or she chooses.  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; and (2) the Policy owner may
transfer no more than the greater of 25% of the Accumulated Value in the Fixed
Account of $5000 to the Variable Accounts in any 12-month period.

III. REDEMPTION PROCEDURES:  SURRENDER AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

     A.   Surrender for Net Cash Surrender Value
          --------------------------------------

     A Policy owner can make partial withdrawals of the net cash surrender value
of the Policy starting on the first Policy anniversary.  During the first
fifteen Policy years, the portion of a partial withdrawal of up to the lesser of
$10,000 or 10% of cash surrender value will not reduce the face amount under the
Policy.

     A partial withdrawal must be for at least $500, and the Policy's net cash
surrender value after the withdrawal must be at least $500.  If there is any
Policy debt, the maximum partial withdrawal amount 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 may be further limited so that face amount will not be less than
$100,000.

                                       4
<PAGE>
 
     When a partial withdrawal is made on a Policy on which the owner has
selected Death Benefit Option A or Death Benefit Option D, the face amount under
the Policy is decreased by the excess, if any, of the face amount over the
result of the death benefit immediately prior to the partial withdrawal minus
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
or Death Benefit Option C.  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 insureds, 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 both insureds, 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, plus any insurance proceeds provided by rider, reduced by adjustments
for any outstanding Policy debt (and, if in the grace period, any overdue
charges).

     The death benefit will be the greater of accumulated value multiplied by a
death benefit percentage, or one of the following four options:  (1) Death
Benefit Option A - the face amount of the Policy; (2) Death Benefit Option B -
the face amount of the Policy plus the accumulated value; (3) Death Benefit
Option C - the face amount of the Policy plus the total premiums paid minus
total withdrawals; or (4) Death Benefit Option D - the face amount of the Policy
multiplied by a death benefit factor shown on a Policy's specifications pages.
The specified death benefit percentages vary according to the age of the younger
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 while the Policy is in force, a
decrease in the accumulated value may decrease the death benefit but never below
the face amount while the Policy is in force.

     The face amount of the Policy may be decreased by the Policy owner.  A
decrease in face amount may only be made after the first Policy year.  Such a
change may change the death benefit, depending, among other things, upon the
death benefit option chosen by the owner and 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 by written application to
Pacific Mutual's home office.  A Policy owner may make only one such request per
Policy year.

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
     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.

     If the required payment is made during the grace period, such payment will
be allocated among the variable accounts and the fixed account in accordance
with the Policy owner's allocation instructions.  If the survivor 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 debt.

     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 2 of this document.

     D.   Policy Loans
          ------------

     See Section I.F. on page 3 of this document.
