Transferring among investment options
You can transfer among the investment options during the life of your policy
without paying any current income tax. There is currently no charge for
transfers.
You can make as many transfers as you like between variable investment options.
You can also make automatic transfers from one variable investment option to
another using our dollar cost averaging or portfolio rebalancing program. These
programs are not available for the fixed options.
You can only make one transfer from each fixed option in any 12-month period.
For the Fixed account, each transfer may be no more than $5,000 or 25% of the
accumulated value in the Fixed account, whichever is greater. For the Fixed LT
account, each transfer may be no more than $5,000 or 10% of the accumulated
value in the Fixed LT account. You can only transfer to the fixed options in

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Taking out a loan
You can take out a loan from us using your policy's accumulated value as
security. You pay interest on the amount you borrow at an annual rate of 4.5%
during the first 10 policy years and 4.25% thereafter. The accumulated value used
to secure your loan is set aside in a loan account, where it earns interest at an
annual rate of 4%.
The amount in the loan account is not available to help pay for any policy
charges. Taking out a loan affects the accumulated value of your policy because
the amount set aside in the loan account misses out on the potential earnings
available through the investment options.
Surrendering your policy
You can surrender or cash in your policy for its net cash surrender value while
either of the two people insured by the policy is still living. If you
surrender your policy during the first 10 policy years, we'll apply a surrender
charge.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How we calculate the death benefit for Option D
If you choose Option D, we'll calculate the death benefit by multiplying the
face amount by a death benefit factor. The death benefit factor is a number
from 1.0 to 2.0. A factor of 1.0 means the death benefit equals the face
amount. A factor of 2.0 means the death benefit is two times the face amount.
The factor changes on each policy anniversary and is based on the joint equal
age of the people insured by the policy and the number of completed policy
years. Joint equal age is a calculation that blends the ages and insurance
risks of the two people insured by the policy. Generally, the death benefit
factor will reach the maximum of 2.0 when joint equal age plus the number of
completed policy years is between 85 and 90. You'll find more information about
how we calculate joint equal age in Appendix A.
You'll find more information about the death benefit factor in Appendix D and
in your policy.

THE DEATH BENEFIT
<S> <C>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Comparing the death benefit options The tables below compare the death benefits provided by the policy's four death
benefit options. The examples are intended only to show differences in death
benefits and net amounts at risk. Accumulated value assumptions may not be
realistic.
These examples show that each death benefit option provides a different level
of protection. Keep in mind that cost of insurance charges, which affect your
policy's accumulated value, increase with the amount of the death benefit, as
well as over time. The cost of insurance is charged at a rate per $1,000 of the
discounted net amount at risk. As the net amount at risk increases, your cost
of insurance increases. Accumulated value also varies depending on the
performance of the investment options in your policy.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your first premium payment We usually require you to make a minimum initial premium payment that's equal
to at least 25% of the sum of your premium load and your policy's monthly
charges for the first year.
The amount of the monthly charge and premium load are calculated based on your
policy's face amount and the age, smoking status, gender (unless unisex cost of
insurance rates apply), and risk classes of the people insured by your policy.
We describe premium load later in this section. You'll find an explanation of

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deductions from your premiums We deduct a premium load from each premium payment you make. The load is made
up of three charges:
Your net premium is your premium
payment less the premium load. Sales load
During the first 10 years of your policy, we deduct a 5% sales load from each
premium payment you make. The sales load is reduced to 3% after the 10th policy
year.
This charge helps pay for the cost of distributing our policies and is
guaranteed not to increase. If our sales and distribution expenses are more
than the sales load, we can recover these expenses from other charges, such as
the mortality and expense risk charge and the surrender charge, and from any
mortality gains.
State and local tax charge
We deduct 2.35% from each premium payment to pay state and local premium and
other taxes. The actual taxes we pay vary from state to state, and in some
instances, among municipalities. This rate approximates the average rate we pay
for all states. We do not expect to profit from this charge, and do not expect
to change the rate unless the rate we pay increases.
Federal tax charge
We deduct 1.50% from each premium payment to pay federal taxes. We reserve the
right to change this rate to respond to changes in law.

We may refuse to accept all or part of a premium payment if, by accepting it,
you will exceed your policy's guideline premium limit. If we find that you've
exceeded your guideline premium limit, we may remove all or part of a premium
you've paid from your policy as of the day we applied it, and return it to you.

A life insurance policy will become a modified endowment contract if the sum of
premium payments made during the first seven contract years, less a portion of
withdrawals, exceeds the seven-pay limit defined in Section 7702A of the
Internal Revenue Code.
Unless you've told us in writing that you want your policy to become a modified
endowment contract, we'll remove all or part of the premium payment from your
policy as of the day we applied it and return it to you. We'll also adjust the
death benefit retroactively to that date to reflect the reduction in premium
payments. If we receive such a premium within 20 days before your policy
anniversary, we'll hold it and apply it to your policy on the anniversary date.
In both of these situations, if we remove an excess premium from your policy,
we'll return the premium amount to you no later than 60 days after the end of
that policy year. We may adjust the amount for interest or for changes in
accumulated value that relate to the amount of the excess premium payment we're
returning to you.
If we do not return the premium amount to you within that time, we'll increase
your policy's death benefit retroactively, to the day we applied the premium,
and prospectively, so that it's always the amount necessary to ensure your
policy qualifies as life insurance, or to prevent it from becoming a modified
endowment contract. If we increase your death benefit, we'll adjust cost of
insurance or rider charges retroactively and prospectively to reflect the
increase.

determining policy benefits and charges.
We use it to calculate how much money is available to you for loans and
withdrawals, and how much you'll receive if you surrender your policy. It also
affects the amount of the death benefit if you choose a death benefit option
that's calculated using accumulated value.
The accumulated value of your policy is not guaranteed - it depends on the
performance of the investment options you've chosen, the premium payments
you've made, policy charges and how much you've borrowed or withdrawn from the
policy.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Calculating your policy's accumulated value Your policy's accumulated value is the total amount allocated to the variable
investment options and the fixed options, plus the amount in the loan account.
We determine the value allocated to the variable investment options on any
business day by multiplying the number of accumulation units for each variable
investment option credited to your policy on that day, by the variable
investment option's unit value at the end of that day. The process we use to
calculate unit values for the variable investment options is described in Your
investment options.

policy might lapse, and what you can do to
reinstate it, later in this section. There are maximum or guaranteed cost of insurance rates associated with your
policy. When the younger of the two people insured by your policy reaches age
100, the guaranteed cost of insurance rate is zero - in other words, you no
longer pay any cost of insurance.
The guaranteed rates include the insurance risks associated with insuring two
people. They are calculated using 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary
Mortality Tables or the 1980 Commissioners Ordinary Mortality Table B, which
are used for unisex cost of insurance rates. The rates are also based on the
ages, gender and risk classes of the people insured by the policy unless unisex
rates are required.
Our current cost of insurance rates are based on the ages, risk classes and
genders (unless unisex rates are required) of the two people insured by the
policy. These rates generally increase as the ages of the two people increase,
and they vary with the number of years the policy has been in force. Our
current rates are lower than the guaranteed rates and they will not exceed the
guaranteed rates in the future.

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
YOUR POLICY'S ACCUMULATED VALUE
<S> <C>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How we calculate cost of insurance
We calculate cost of insurance by multiplying the current cost of insurance
rate by a discounted net amount at risk at the beginning of each policy month.
Net amount at risk for the cost of insurance calculation is the difference
between a discounted death benefit that would be payable if both people insured
by the policy died, and the accumulated value of your policy. We calculate it
in two steps:
. Step 1: we divide the death benefit that would be payable at the beginning of
the policy month by 1.00327374.
. Step 2: we subtract your policy's accumulated value at the beginning of the
policy month from the amount we calculated in step 1.
Administrative charge
We deduct a charge of $16 a month during the first five policy years to help
cover the costs of administering and maintaining our policies. After five
policy years, we reduce this charge to $6 a month. We guarantee that this
charge will not increase. When the younger of the two people insured by the
policy reaches age 100, the administrative charge is zero - in other words, you
no longer pay any administrative charge.
If you buy additional Pacific Select Estate Preserver policies that insure the
same two people, we will not deduct the administrative charge from the
additional policies. Instead, we'll deduct $200 from each policy's first
premium payment to help cover our processing costs.
Mortality and expense risk charge
Mortality risk is the chance that the people insured by policies we've issued
do not live as long as expected. This means the cost of insurance charges
specified in the policies may not be enough to pay out actual claims.
Expense risk is the chance that our actual administrative and operating
expenses are more than the fees and expenses deducted under the policies and
the separate account.
The mortality and expense risk charge helps compensate us for these risks.
It has two components, which are described in the box on the following page.
We guarantee this charge will not increase.
Charges for optional riders
If you add any riders to your policy, we add any charges for them to your
monthly charge.
Proceeds from charges
We may use any profit derived from any charges under the policy for any lawful
purpose, including our sales and distribution expenses.

we deduct the cost of insurance and charges for any optional riders.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lapsing and reinstatement Your policy will lapse if there is not enough accumulated value, after
subtracting any outstanding loan amount, to cover the monthly charge on the day
we make the deduction. Your policy's accumulated value is affected by the
following:
. loans or withdrawals you make from your policy
. not making planned premium payments
. the performance of your investment options
. charges under the policy.
There is no guarantee that your policy will not lapse even if you pay your
planned periodic premium.
If there is not enough accumulated value to pay the total monthly charge, we
deduct the amount that's available and send you, and anyone you've assigned
your policy to, a notice telling you the minimum amount you have to pay to keep
your policy in force. This minimum amount is equal to three times the monthly
charge that was due on the monthly payment date when there was not enough
accumulated value to pay the charge.
We'll give you a grace period of 61 days from when we send the notice to pay
the required premium. Your policy will remain in force during the grace period.
If you do not make the minimum payment
If we do not receive your payment within the grace period, your policy will
lapse with no value. This means we'll end your life insurance coverage.

If you make the minimum payment
If we receive your payment within the grace period, we'll allocate your net

each option.
Remember to tell us if a payment is a If your policy is in danger of lapsing and you have an outstanding loan amount,
premium payment or a loan repayment. you may find that making the minimum payment would cause the total premiums
paid to exceed the maximum amount for your policy's face amount under tax laws.
In that situation, we will not accept the portion of your payment that would
exceed the maximum amount. To stop your policy from lapsing, you'll have to
repay a portion of your outstanding loan amount.
How to avoid future lapsing
To stop your policy from lapsing in the future, you may want to make larger or
more frequent premium payments if tax laws permit it. Or if you have a loan,
you may want to repay a portion if it.
Paying death benefit proceeds during the grace period
If the last surviving person insured by the policy dies during the grace
period, we'll pay death benefit proceeds to your beneficiary. We'll reduce the
payment by any unpaid monthly charges and any outstanding loan amount.
Reinstating a lapsed policy
If your policy lapses, you have five years from the end of the grace period to
apply for a reinstatement. We'll reinstate it if you send us the following:
. a written application
. evidence satisfactory to us that the two people insured by the policy are
still insurable
. a premium payment sufficient to keep your policy in force for three months
after the day your policy is reinstated
. payment of all unpaid monthly charges that were due in the grace period.
We'll reinstate your policy as of the first monthly payment date on or after
the day we approve the reinstatement. Once we reinstate your policy, its
accumulated value will be the same as it was on the day your policy lapsed.
We'll allocate it according to your most recent premium allocation
instructions.
Reinstating a lapsed policy with an outstanding loan amount
If you had an outstanding loan amount when your policy lapsed, we will not pay
or credit interest on it during the period between the lapsing and
reinstatement of your policy. There are special rules that apply to reinstating
a policy with an outstanding loan amount:
. If we reinstate your policy on the first monthly payment date that
immediately follows the lapse, we'll also reinstate the loan amount that was
outstanding the day your policy lapsed.
. If we reinstate your policy on any monthly payment date other than the
monthly payment date that immediately follows the lapse, we'll deduct the
outstanding loan amount from your policy's accumulated value. This means you
will no longer have an outstanding loan amount when your policy is
reinstated.

If a scheduled transaction falls on a day that is not a business day, we'll
process it as of the end of the next business day. For your monthly charge,
we'll use the unit value calculated on your monthly payment date. If your
monthly payment date does not fall on a business day, we'll use the unit value
calculated as of the end of the next business day.
The unit value calculation is based on the following:
. the investment performance of the underlying portfolio
. any dividends or distributions paid by the underlying portfolio
. any charges for any taxes that are, or may become, associated with the
operation of the variable account.
The unit value of a variable account will change with the value of its
corresponding Pacific Select Fund portfolio. Changes in the unit value of a
variable account will not change the number of accumulation units credited to
your policy.
A look at performance
Performance information may appear in advertisements, sales literature, or
reports to policy owners or prospective buyers.
Information about the performance of any variable account of the separate
account reflects only the performance of a hypothetical policy. The
calculations are based on allocating the hypothetical policy's accumulated
value to the variable account during a particular time period.
Performance information is no guarantee of how a variable account will perform
in the future. You should keep in mind 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 period of time that's
shown.
We may show performance information in any way that's allowed under the law
that applies to it. This may include presenting a change in accumulated value
due to the performance of one or more variable accounts, or as a change in a
policy owner's death benefit.

YOUR INVESTMENT OPTIONS
<S> <C>
We may show performance as a change in accumulated value over time or in terms
of the average annual compounded rate of return on accumulated value. This
would be based on allocating premium payments for a hypothetical policy to a
particular variable account over certain periods of time, including one year,
or from the day the variable account started operating. If a portfolio has
existed for longer than its corresponding variable account, we may also show
the hypothetical returns that the variable account would have achieved had it
invested in the portfolio from the day the portfolio started operating.
Performance may reflect the deduction of all policy charges including premium
load, the cost of insurance, the administrative charge, and the mortality and
expense risk charge. The different death benefit options will result in
different expenses for the cost of insurance, and the varying expenses will
result in different accumulated values.
Performance may also reflect the deduction of the surrender charge, if it
applies, by assuming the hypothetical policy is surrendered at the end of the
particular period. At the same time, we may give other performance figures that
do not assume the policy is surrendered and do not reflect any deduction of the
surrender charge.
In our advertisements, sales literature and reports to policy owners, we may
compare performance information for a variable account to:
. other variable life separate accounts, mutual funds, 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
. the Consumer Price Index, to assess the real rate of return from buying a
policy by taking inflation into consideration.
Reports and promotional literature may also contain our rating or a rating of
our claims-paying ability. These ratings are set by firms that analyze and rate
insurance companies and by nationally recognized statistical rating
organizations.

How withdrawals affect your policy's death benefit
Making a withdrawal will affect your policy's death benefit in the following
ways:
. if your policy's death benefit does not equal the guideline minimum death
benefit, the death benefit will decrease by the amount of your withdrawal.
. if your policy's death benefit equals the guideline minimum death benefit,
the death benefit may decrease by more than the amount of your withdrawal.
How withdrawals affect your policy's face amount
If you've chosen death benefit Option B or Option C, making a withdrawal does
not reduce your policy's face amount.
If you've chosen death benefit Option A or Option D, a withdrawal may reduce
your face amount. You can make one withdrawal during each of the first 15
policy years of $10,000 or 10% of your policy's cash surrender value, whichever
is less, without reducing your policy's face amount. If you withdraw a larger
amount, or make additional withdrawals, the face amount will be reduced by the
amount if any, by which the face amount exceeds the death benefit immediately
before the withdrawal, minus the amount of the withdrawal.

Calculating the surrender charge on a decrease in face amount
Here's how we calculate the surrender charge on a decrease in face amount:
. Step 1: we divide the amount of the decrease by your policy's face amount
immediately before the decrease
. Step 2: we multiply the amount we calculated in step 1 by the total surrender
charge that would apply if you surrendered your policy.
We deduct the amount we calculated in step 2 from your investment options in
proportion to the accumulated value you have in each option.
We calculate any surrender charge after a decrease in face amount by dividing
the new face amount by the old face amount, and multiplying the result by the
surrender charge that would have applied before the decrease.

income benefits we may make available from time to time.
The following is one income benefit available under the Pacific Select Estate
Preserver policy:
. The income benefit is based on the life of the person receiving the income.
If the policy owner is buying the income benefit, monthly income will be
based on the owner's life. If the policy's beneficiary buys the income
benefit, monthly income will be based on the beneficiary's life.
. We'll pay a monthly income for at least 10 years regardless of whether the
person receiving the income is still alive.
. After 10 years, we'll only pay the monthly income for as long as the person
receiving it is still alive.
. The minimum monthly income benefit calculated must be at least $100.
. For this income benefit, the amount you receive will always be at least as
much as the amount guaranteed by your policy.

Replacement of life insurance or The term replacement has a special meaning in the life insurance industry.
annuities Before you make a decision to buy, we want you to understand what impact a
replacement may have on your existing insurance policy.
A replacement occurs when you buy a new life insurance policy or annuity
contract, and a policy or contract you already own has been or will be:
. lapsed, forfeited, surrendered or partially surrendered, assigned to the
replacing insurer, or otherwise terminated
. converted to reduced paid-up insurance, continued as extended term insurance,
or otherwise reduced in value by the use of nonforfeiture benefits or other
policy values
. amended to effect either a reduction in benefits or in the term for which
coverage would otherwise remain in force or for which benefits would be paid
. reissued with any reduction in cash value, or
. pledged as collateral or subject to borrowing, whether in a single loan or
under a schedule of borrowing over a period of time.
There are circumstances when replacing your existing life insurance policy or
annuity contract can benefit you. As a general rule, however, replacement is
not in your best interest. You should carefully compare the costs and benefits
of your existing policy or contract with those of the new policy or contract to
determine whether replacement is in your best interest.

Contesting the validity We have the right to contest the validity of your policy for two years from the

date during the lifetime of the people insured by the policy, we generally lose
the right to contest its validity.
We also have the right to contest the validity of a policy that you reinstate
for two years from the day that it was reinstated. Once your reinstated policy
has been in force for two years from the reinstatement date during the lifetime
of the people insured by the policy, we generally lose the right to contest its
validity. During this period, we may contest your policy only if there is a
material misrepresentation on your application for reinstatement.
Regardless of the above, we can contest the validity of your policy for failure
to pay premiums at any time. The policy will terminate upon successful contest
with respect to either person insured by the policy.

This discussion about taxes is based on our understanding of the present
federal income tax laws as they are currently interpreted by the Internal
Revenue Service (IRS). It's based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, (the tax code) and does not cover any state or local tax laws.
This is not a complete discussion of all federal income tax questions that may
arise under the policy. There are special rules that we do not include here

. You'll generally not be taxed on any or all of your policy's accumulated value
unless you receive a cash distribution by making a withdrawal, surrendering
your policy, or in some instances, taking a loan from your policy.
The tax laws defining life insurance, however, do not cover all policy
features. Your policy may have features that could prevent it from qualifying
as life insurance. For example, the tax laws have yet to address many issues
concerning the treatment of substandard risk policies, policies with term
insurance on the people insured by the policy or certain tax requirements
relating to joint survivorship life insurance policies. We can make changes to
your policy if we believe the changes are needed to ensure that your policy
continues to qualify as a life insurance contract.
Tax regulations deal with allowable charges for mortality costs and other
expenses that are used in calculating whether a policy qualifies as life
insurance. 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.

VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE AND YOUR TAXES

While the Treasury Department has issued proposed regulations about reasonable
standards for mortality charges, the standards that apply to joint survivor
life insurance policies are not entirely clear. While we believe that our
mortality costs and other expenses used in calculating whether the policy
qualifies as life insurance are reasonable under current laws, we cannot be
sure that the IRS agrees with us. We can change our mortality charges if we
believe the changes are needed to ensure that your policy qualifies as a life
insurance contract.
Section 817(h) of the tax code describes Diversification rules and ownership of the separate account

unless the separate account follows certain rules requiring diversification of

Select Fund in the attached Pacific Select
Fund prospectus. The Treasury Department has announced that the diversification rules "do not
provide guidance concerning the circumstances in which it will treat an
investor, rather than the insurance company, as the owner of the assets in a
separate account." The IRS treats a variable policy owner as the owner of
separate account assets if he or she has the ability to exercise investment
control over them. Owners of the assets are taxed on any income or gains the
assets generate. Although the Treasury Department announced it would provide
further guidance on the issue, it had not done so when we wrote this
prospectus.
No IRS rulings deal with policies that have exactly the same ownership rights
as your policy. Since you have additional flexibility in allocating premiums
and policy values, it is possible the IRS would treat you as the owner of your
policy's proportionate share of the assets of the separate account.
We do not know what will be in future Treasury Department regulations. We
cannot guarantee that the fund's 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 policies. We can modify your policy if
we believe it will prevent you from being considered the owner of your policy's
proportionate share of the assets of the separate account.
Policy exchanges fall under Section 1035(a) Policy exchanges
of the tax code.
If you exchange your entire policy for another one that insures the same
people, it generally will be treated as a tax-free exchange and, if so, will
not result in the recognition of gain or loss. If any of the people insured by
the policy are changed, the exchange will be treated as a taxable exchange.

distributions less any withdrawals or policy.

taxable. Making a withdrawal
If you make a withdrawal after your policy has been in force for 15 years,
you'll only be taxed on the amount you withdraw that exceeds the cost basis in
the policy.
Special rules apply if you make a withdrawal within the first 15 policy years
and it's accompanied by a reduction in benefits. In this case, there is a
special formula under which you may be taxed on all or a portion of the
withdrawal amount.
Taking out a loan
If you take out a loan, you will not pay tax on the loan amount unless your
policy is surrendered or lapses and you have not repaid your outstanding loan
amount. The interest you pay, or that's accrued, on a loan is generally
nondeductible. Ask your tax adviser for more information.
Loans and corporate owned-policies
If you borrow money to buy or carry certain life insurance policies, tax law
provisions may limit the deduction of interest payable on loan proceeds. If the
taxpayer is an entity that's a direct or indirect beneficiary of certain life
insurance, endowment or annuity contracts, a portion of the entity's deductions
for loan interest may be disallowed, even though this interest may relate to
debt that's completely unrelated to the contract. There may be a limited
exception that applies to contracts issued on 20% owners, officers, directors
or employees of the entity. For more information about this exception, you
should consult your tax adviser.

Surrendering your policy
If you surrender your policy, you're taxed on the amount by which the cash
surrender value exceeds the cost basis in the policy.
Making a withdrawal or taking out a loan
If you make a withdrawal or take out a loan from a modified endowment contract,
you're taxed on the amount of the withdrawal or loan that's considered income,
including all previously non-taxed gains. Income is the difference between the
cash surrender value and the cost basis in your policy. It's unclear whether
interest paid, or accrued, on a loan is considered interest for federal income
tax purposes. If you borrow money to buy or carry certain life insurance
policies, tax law provisions may limit the deduction of interest payable on
loan proceeds. You should consult your tax adviser.
All modified endowment contracts we or our affiliates issue to you in a
calendar year are treated as a single contract when we calculate whether a
distribution amount is subject to tax.
10% penalty tax
If any amount you receive from a modified endowment contract is taxable, you
may also have to pay a penalty tax equal to 10% of the taxable amount.
A taxpayer will not have to pay the penalty tax if any of the following
exceptions apply:
. you're at least 59 1/2 years old
. you're receiving an amount because you've become disabled
. you're receiving an amount that's part of a series of substantially equal
periodic payments, paid out at least annually. These payments may be made for
your life or life expectancy or for the joint lives or joint life expectancies
of you and your beneficiaries.
Distributions before a policy becomes a modified endowment contract
If your policy fails the seven-pay test and becomes a modified endowment
contract, any amount you receive or are deemed to have received during the two
years before it became a modified endowment contract may be taxable. The
distribution would be treated as having been made in anticipation of the
policy's failing to meet the seven-pay test under Treasury Department
regulations which are yet to be prescribed.

<S> <C>
Pacific Life Insurance Company is a life insurance company based in California.
Along with our subsidiaries and affiliates, our operations include life
insurance, annuities, pension and institutional products, group employee
benefits, broker-dealer operations, and investment advisory services. At the
end of 1998, we had over $89.6 billion of individual life insurance and total
admitted assets of approximately $37.6 billion. In 1998, we were ranked the
18th largest life insurance carrier in the U.S. in terms of admitted assets.
Pacific Life, together with its affiliated enterprises, has total assets and
funds under management of over $290 billion. We are authorized to conduct our
life and annuity business in the District of Columbia and in all states except
New York. Our principal office is at 700 Newport Center Drive, Newport Beach,
California 92660.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How we're organized Pacific Life was established on January 2, 1868 under the name, Pacific Mutual
Life Insurance Company of California. It was reincorporated as Pacific Mutual
Life Insurance Company on July 22, 1936. On September 1, 1997, Pacific Life
converted from a mutual life insurance company to a stock life insurance
company. Pacific Life is a subsidiary of Pacific LifeCorp, a holding company,
which in turn is a subsidiary of Pacific Mutual Holding Company, a mutual
holding company.
Under their charters, Pacific Mutual Holding Company must always hold at least
51% of the outstanding voting stock of Pacific LifeCorp. Pacific LifeCorp must
always own 100% of the voting stock of Pacific Life. Owners of Pacific Life's
annuity contracts and life insurance policies have certain membership interests
in Pacific Mutual Holding Company. They have the right to vote on the election
of the Board of Directors of the mutual holding company and on other matters.
They also have certain rights if the mutual holding company is liquidated or
dissolved.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How policies are distributed Pacific Mutual Distributors, Inc. (PMD), our subsidiary, is the distributor of
our policies. PMD is located at 700 Newport Center Drive, Newport Beach,
California 92660.
PMD is registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC and is a member of the
National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD). We pay PMD for its services
as our distributor.
The policies are sold by registered representatives of broker-dealers who have
signed agreements with us and PMD. Registered representatives must be licensed
to sell variable life insurance under the state insurance and securities
regulations that apply. Broker-dealers must be registered with the SEC.
How we pay broker-dealers
We pay broker-dealers commission for promoting, marketing and selling our
policies. Broker-dealers pay a portion of the commission to their registered
representatives, under their own arrangements.

surrenders and loans and Appendix B. . 90% of premiums paid up to the first sales surrender target premium
. 6% of the premiums paid under sales surrender targets 2 and 3
. 4% of premiums paid in excess of sales surrender target 3
. 2% of premiums paid after policy year 10.
We may pay broker-dealers an annual renewal commission of up to 0.20% of a
policy's accumulated value less any outstanding loan amount. We calculate the
renewal amount monthly and it becomes payable on each policy anniversary.
We may also pay override payments, expense and marketing allowances, bonuses,
wholesaler fees and training allowances.
Registered representatives who meet certain sales levels can qualify for sales
incentives programs we sponsor. We may also pay them non-cash compensation like
expense-paid trips, expense-paid educational seminars, and merchandise. They
can choose to receive their compensation on a deferred basis.

your net premiums to these accounts according to the investment options you've
chosen.

other income, gains or losses.
Making changes to the separate account
We can add, change or remove any securities that the separate account or any
variable account holds or buys, as long as we comply with the laws that apply.
We can substitute shares of one Pacific Select Fund portfolio with shares of
another portfolio or fund if:
. any portfolio is no longer available for investment
. our management believes that a portfolio is no longer appropriate in view of
the purposes of the policy.
We'll give you any required notice or receive any required approval from policy
owners or the SEC before we substitute any shares. We'll comply with the filing
or other procedures established by insurance regulators as required by law.
We can add new variable accounts, which may include additional subaccounts of
the separate account, to serve as investment options under the policies. These
may be managed separate accounts or they may invest in a new portfolio of the
fund, or in shares of another investment company or one of its portfolios, or
in a suitable investment vehicle with a specified investment objective.
We can add new variable accounts when we believe that it's warranted by
marketing needs or investment conditions. We'll decide on what basis we'll make
new accounts available to existing policy owners.
We can also eliminate any of our variable accounts if we believe marketing, tax
or investment conditions warrant it. We can terminate and liquidate any
variable account.
If we make any changes to variable accounts or substitution of securities, we
can make appropriate changes to this policy or any of our other policies, by
appropriate endorsement, to reflect the change or substitution.

If we believe it's in the best interests of people holding voting rights under
the policies and we meet any required regulatory approvals we can do the
following:
. operate the separate account as a management investment company, unit
investment trust, or any other form permitted under securities or other laws
. register or deregister the separate account under securities law
. combine the separate account with one of our other separate accounts or our
affiliates' separate accounts
. combine one or more variable accounts
. create a committee, board or other group to manage the separate account
. change the classification of any variable account.
Taxes we pay
We may be charged for state and local taxes. Currently, we pay these taxes
because they are small amounts with respect to the policy. If these taxes
increase significantly, we may deduct them from the separate account.
We may charge the separate account for any federal, state and local taxes that
apply to the separate account or to our operations. This could happen if our
tax status or the tax treatment of variable life insurance changes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Voting rights We're the legal owner of the shares of the Pacific Select Fund that are held by
the variable accounts. We may vote on any matter at shareholder meetings of the
fund. However, we are required by law to vote as you instruct on the shares
relating to your allocation in a variable investment option. This is called
your voting interest.
Your voting interest is calculated as of a day set by the Board of Trustees of
the fund called the record date. Your voting interest equals the accumulated
value in a variable investment option divided by the net asset value of a share
of the corresponding portfolio. Fractional shares are included. If allowed by
law, we may change how we calculate your voting interest.
We'll send you documents from the fund called proxy materials. They include
information about the items you'll be voting on and forms for you to give us
your instructions. We'll vote shares held in the separate account for which we
do not receive voting instructions in the same proportion as all other shares
in the portfolio held by that separate account for which we've received timely
instructions.
We'll vote shares of any portfolio we hold in our general account in the same
proportion as the total votes for all of our separate accounts, including this
separate account. We'll vote shares of any portfolio held by our non-insurance
affiliates in the same proportion as the total votes for all separate accounts
of ours and our insurance affiliates.
If the law changes to allow it, we can vote as we wish on shares of the
portfolios held in the separate account.
When required by state insurance regulatory authorities, we may disregard
voting instructions that:
. would change a portfolio's investment objective or subclassification
. would approve or disapprove an investment advisory contract.

otherwise be inappropriate, considering the portfolio's objectives and
purpose, and considering what effect the change would have on us.

Preparing for the year 2000 Pacific Life long ago recognized the challenges associated with the Year 2000
date change. This change involves the ability of computer systems to properly
recognize the Year 2000. The inability to do so could result in major failures
or miscalculations. We began prior to 1995 to assess and plan for the potential
impact of the Year 2000. More recently, Pacific Life has been executing a
company-wide plan adopted during 1998 which called for correction or
replacement of remaining non-compliant systems by December 31, 1998.
We have successfully executed this project plan to date. Virtually all affected
systems were remediated and tested in time for use during 1998 year-end
processing cycles. Although it is not possible to certify that any system will
be completely free of Year 2000 problems, we have performed extensive testing
to identify and deal with such potential problems. Additionally, most of the
company's critical systems were subject to an independent third-party review
process which used sophisticated automated tools to identify Year 2000 related
bugs. The results have been very positive and we feel the company's internal
systems are positioned well for the date change in the century.
We plan to continue to test and re-test throughout 1999 and we will respond
promptly should any problems arise at any time thereafter.
We are continuing to work on contingency plans for critical business processes.
When appropriate, alternative methods and procedures are being developed to
work around unanticipated problems.
In addition to the above, we will continue to carefully evaluate responses from
vendors and significant business partners regarding the compliance of their
critical business processes and products. Although ultimately Pacific Life
cannot be responsible for the Year 2000 compliance efforts of these outside
entities, we will take appropriate steps wherever possible to develop

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 during 1998 was comprised of eighteen 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, the Growth LT Variable Account, the Equity Income Variable Account,
the Multi-Strategy Variable Account, the Equity Variable Account, the Bond and
Income Variable Account, the Equity Index Variable Account, the International
Variable Account, the Emerging Markets Variable Account, and the Variable
Accounts I through IV. The assets in each of the first fourteen Variable
Accounts are invested in shares of the corresponding portfolios of Pacific
Select Fund and the assets of the last four Variable Accounts are invested in
shares of the corresponding portfolios of M Fund, Inc. (collectively, the
"Funds"). Each Variable Account pursues different investment objectives and
policies. The financial statements of the Funds, including the schedules of
investments, are either included in Section B of this report or provided
separately and should be read in conjunction with the Separate Account's
financial statements.
The Separate Account was established by Pacific Life Insurance Company
(formerly named Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company--see Note 1 to Financial
Statements of the Fund on B-58) 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 Life. The assets of the Separate Account will
not be charged with any liabilities arising out of any other business conducted
by Pacific Life, but the obligations of the Separate Account, including
benefits related to variable life insurance, are obligations of Pacific Life.
The Separate Account held by Pacific Life represents funds from individual
flexible premium variable life policies. The assets of the Separate Account 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 Funds are valued at the reported net asset values
of the respective portfolios. Valuation of securities held by the Funds is
discussed in the notes to their financial statements.
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 Life, 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 Life with respect to the
operations of the Separate Account.
2. DIVIDENDS
During 1998, the Funds 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 Life makes certain deductions from premiums for sales load and
state premium taxes before amounts are allocated to the Separate Account.
Pacific Life also makes certain deductions from the net assets of each Variable
Account for the mortality and expense risks Pacific Life 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 Life.
4. RELATED PARTY AGREEMENT
Pacific Mutual Distributors, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pacific Life,
serves as principal underwriter of variable life insurance policies funded by
interests in the Separate Account, without remuneration from the Separate
Account.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
----------------------------
Pacific Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial
condition of Pacific Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries (the
"Company") as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholder's equity and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. 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 consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Pacific Life Insurance
Company and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 1998 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
CONVERSION TO MUTUAL HOLDING COMPANY STRUCTURE
Pursuant to consent received from the Insurance Department of the State of
California, Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company ("Pacific Mutual")
implemented a plan of conversion to form a mutual holding company structure
(the "Conversion") on September 1, 1997. The Conversion created Pacific
LifeCorp, an intermediate stock holding company and Pacific Mutual Holding
Company ("PMHC"), a mutual holding company. Pacific Mutual was converted to
a stock life insurance company and renamed Pacific Life Insurance Company
("Pacific Life"). Under their respective charters, PMHC must always own at
least 51% of the outstanding voting stock of Pacific LifeCorp, and Pacific
LifeCorp must always own 100% of the voting stock of Pacific Life. Owners
of Pacific Life's annuity contracts and life insurance policies have
certain membership interests in PMHC, consisting principally of the right
to vote on the election of the Board of Directors of PMHC and on other
matters, and certain rights upon liquidation or dissolution of PMHC.
As a result of the Conversion, $65 million of retained earnings was
allocated for the issuance of 600,000 shares of common stock with a par
value totaling $30 million and $35 million to paid-in capital.
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Pacific Life was established in 1868 and is organized under the laws of the
State of California as a stock life insurance company. Pacific Life
conducts business in every state except New York.
Pacific Life and its subsidiaries and affiliates have primary business
operations which consist of life insurance, annuities, pension and
institutional products, group employee benefits, broker-dealer operations
and investment management and advisory services. Pacific Life's primary
business operations provide a broad range of life insurance, asset
accumulation and investment products for individuals and businesses and
offer a range of investment products to institutions and pension plans.
Additionally, through its major subsidiaries and affiliates, Pacific Life
provides a variety of group employee benefits, broker-dealer operations and
investment management and advisory services.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Pacific Life
Insurance Company and Subsidiaries (the "Company") have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and
include the accounts of Pacific Life and its wholly-owned insurance
subsidiaries, PM Group Life Insurance Company ("PM Group") and World-Wide
Holdings Limited, and its wholly-owned noninsurance subsidiaries, Pacific
Asset Management LLC ("PAM"), Pacific Mutual Distributors, Inc. ("PMD"),
Pacific Mutual Realty Finance, Inc. and Pacific Mezzanine Associates,
L.L.C. (50% owned). All significant intercompany transactions and balances
have been eliminated. Pacific Life prepares its regulatory financial
statements based on accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the
Insurance Department of the State of California. These consolidated
financial statements differ from those followed in reports to regulatory
authorities (Note 2).
PAM was initially capitalized on December 31, 1997, when Pacific Life
completed a subsidiary restructuring in which all the assets and
liabilities of Pacific Financial Asset Management Corporation ("PFAMCo")
were contributed into this newly formed limited liability company. PFAMCo
was then merged into Pacific Life. On October 30, 1997, Pacific Corinthian
Life Insurance Company ("PCL"-Note 4), a wholly-owned insurance subsidiary,
was merged into Pacific Life, with Pacific Life as the surviving entity.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
During 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," SFAS No. 131,
"Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," and
SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other
Postretirement Benefits."
73
<PAGE>
Pacific Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
SFAS No. 130 established standards for the reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components in financial statements (Note 11).
SFAS No. 131 established standards for the way information about operating
segments is reported in financial statements. It also established standards
for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and
major customers (Note 13). SFAS No. 132 standardized disclosure
requirements for employers' pensions and other retiree benefits (Note 14).
Adoption of these accounting standards did not have a significant impact on
the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the
Company.
On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants ("AICPA") Statement of Position ("SOP") 97-3,
"Accounting by Insurance and Other Enterprises for Insurance-Related
Assessments." SOP 97-3 provides guidance on when a liability should be
recognized for guaranty fund and other assessments and how to measure the
liability. Adoption of this accounting standard did not have a significant
impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of
the Company.
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No.
133 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. SFAS No.
133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments and hedging activities. The Company currently plans to adopt
SFAS No. 133 on January 1, 2000. The impact on the consolidated financial
position or results of operations of the Company due to the adoption of
this statement has not yet been determined.
In March 1998, the AICPA issued SOP 98-1, "Accounting for the Cost of
Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." SOP 98-1
requires that certain costs incurred in developing internal use computer
software be capitalized. The Company currently plans to adopt SOP 98-1 on
January 1, 1999. The adoption is not expected to have a significant impact
on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the
Company.
INVESTMENTS
Available for sale fixed maturity and equity securities are reported at
estimated fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of deferred
income tax and adjustments related to deferred policy acquisition costs,
included as a separate component of equity on the accompanying consolidated
statements of financial condition. Trading securities, which are included
in short-term investments, are reported at estimated fair value with
unrealized gains and losses included in net realized capital gains on the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
For mortgage-backed securities included in fixed maturity securities, the
Company recognizes income using a constant effective yield based on
anticipated prepayments and the estimated economic life of the securities.
When estimates of prepayments change, the effective yield is recalculated
to reflect actual payments to date and anticipated future payments. The net
investment in the securities is adjusted to the amount that would have
existed had the new effective yield been applied since the acquisition of
the securities. This adjustment is reflected in net investment income on
the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined on a
specific identification basis and are included in net realized capital
gains on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Short-term investments are carried at estimated fair value and include all
trading securities.
Derivative financial instruments are carried at estimated fair value.
Unrealized gains and losses of derivatives used to hedge securities
classified as available for sale are reflected in a separate component of
equity on the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition,
similar to the accounting of the underlying hedged assets. Realized gains
and losses on derivatives used for hedging are deferred and amortized over
the average life of the related hedged assets or insurance liabilities.
Unrealized gains and losses of other derivatives are included in net
realized capital gains on the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations.
Mortgage loans and policy loans are stated at unpaid principal balances.

Pacific Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Real estate is carried at depreciated cost, or for real estate acquired in
satisfaction of debt, estimated fair value less estimated selling costs at
the date of acquisition if lower than the related unpaid balance.
On November 15, 1994, certain of the Company's investment management and
advisory subsidiaries 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. ("PIMCO Advisors"). In December 1997, PIMCO Advisors
completed a transaction in which it acquired the assets of Oppenheimer
Capital, L.P., including its interest in Oppenheimer Capital, by issuing
approximately 33 million PIMCO Advisors General and Limited Partner units.
In connection with this transaction, the Company increased its investment
in PIMCO Advisors to reflect the excess of the Company's pro rata share of
PIMCO Advisors partners' capital subsequent to this transaction over the
carrying value of the Company's investment in PIMCO Advisors. The net
result of this transaction was to directly increase stockholder's equity by
$85.1 million. The Company's beneficial ownership in PIMCO Advisors was
approximately 42% prior to this transaction and 31% as of December 31,
1997. During 1998, the Company increased its investment in PIMCO Advisors
to reflect its pro rata share of the increase to PIMCO Advisors partners'
capital due to the issuance of additional partnership units. For the year
ended December 31, 1998, there was a direct increase to the Company's
stockholder's equity of $6.1 million. During 1998, the Company also
acquired the beneficial ownership of additional partnership units which
increased its ownership to 33% as of December 31, 1998. Deferred taxes
resulting from these transactions have been included in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements. The Company's investment in PIMCO
Advisors, which is included in other investments on the accompanying
consolidated statements of financial condition, is accounted for using the
equity method.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents include all liquid debt instruments with an
original maturity of three months or less.
DEFERRED POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS
The costs of acquiring new insurance business, principally commissions,
medical examinations, underwriting, policy issue and other expenses, all of
which vary with and are primarily related to the production of new
business, have been deferred. For universal life, annuity and other
investment contract products, such costs are generally amortized in
proportion to the present value of expected gross profits using the assumed
crediting rate. Adjustments are reflected in earnings or equity in the
period the Company experiences deviations in gross profit assumptions.
Adjustments directly affecting equity result from experience deviations due
to changes in unrealized gains and losses in investments classified as
available for sale. For life insurance products, such costs are being
amortized over the premium-paying period of the related policies in
proportion to premium revenues recognized, using assumptions consistent
with those used in computing policy reserves. For the years ended December
31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, net amortization of deferred policy acquisition
costs included in commission expenses amounted to $73.0 million,
$50.2 million and $42.6 million, respectively, and included in operating
expenses amounted to $33.5 million, $29.4 million and $27.4 million,
respectively, on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
PRESENT VALUE OF FUTURE PROFITS
In connection with the rehabilitation of First Capital Life Insurance
Company ("FCL"-Note 4), an asset was established which represented the
present value of estimated future profits of the acquired business. The
future profits were discounted to provide an appropriate rate of return and
were amortized over the rehabilitation plan period. Amortization for the
years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 amounted to $16.1 million and
$24.2 million, respectively, and is included in commission expenses on the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations. During 1996, the
Company changed certain assumptions regarding the estimated life which
resulted in an increase in amortization in 1996 of approximately $17.0
million.

Pacific Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
UNIVERSAL LIFE, ANNUITY AND OTHER INVESTMENT CONTRACT DEPOSITS
Universal life, annuity and other investment contract deposits are valued
using the retrospective deposit method and consist principally of deposits
received plus interest credited less accumulated assessments. Interest
credited to these policies primarily ranged from 4.0% to 8.4% during 1998,
1997 and 1996.
FUTURE POLICY BENEFITS
Life insurance reserves are valued using the net level premium method.
Interest rate assumptions ranged from 4.5% to 9.3% for 1998, 1997 and 1996.
Mortality, morbidity and withdrawal assumptions are generally based on the
Company's experience, modified to provide for possible unfavorable
deviations. Future dividends for participating business are provided for in
the liability for future policy benefits. Dividends to policyholders are
included in policy benefits paid or provided on the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations.
Dividends are accrued based on dividend formulas approved by the Board of
Directors and reviewed for reasonableness and equitable treatment of
policyholders by an independent consulting actuary. As of December 31, 1998
and 1997, participating experience rated policies paying dividends
represented approximately 1% of direct written life insurance in force.
REVENUES AND EXPENSES
Insurance premiums are recognized as revenue when due. Benefits and
expenses, other than deferred policy acquisition costs, are recognized when
incurred.
Generally, receipts for universal life, annuities and other investment
contracts are classified as deposits. Policy fees from these contracts
include mortality charges, surrender charges and earned policy service
fees. Expenses related to these products include interest credited to
account balances and benefit amounts in excess of account balances.
Commission revenue from Pacific Life's broker-dealer subsidiaries is
generally recorded on the trade date.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
Depreciation of investment real estate is computed on the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives which range from 5 to 30 years.
Certain other assets are depreciated or amortized on the straight-line
method over periods ranging from 3 to 40 years. Depreciation of investment
real estate is included in net investment income on the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations. Depreciation and amortization of
other assets is included in operating expenses on the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations.
INCOME TAXES
Pacific Life is taxed as a life insurance company for income tax purposes
and is included in the consolidated income tax returns of PMHC. Prior to
1998, Pacific Life was subject to an equity tax calculated by a prescribed
formula that incorporated a differential earnings rate between stock and
mutual life insurance companies. In December 1998, the Internal Revenue
Service released Revenue Ruling 99-3 which exempts Pacific Life from this
tax for taxable years beginning in 1998. Deferred income taxes are provided
for timing differences in the recognition of revenues and expenses for
financial reporting and income tax purposes.
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 contract
owners.

ESTIMATED FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The estimated fair value of financial instruments disclosed in Notes 6 and
7 has 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 the Company
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.
BUSINESS RISKS
The Company operates in a business environment that is subject to various
risks and uncertainties. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not
limited to, interest rate risk, credit risk, and legal and regulatory
changes.
Interest rate risk is the potential for interest rates to change, which can
cause fluctuations in the value of investments. To the extent that
fluctuations in interest rates cause the duration of assets and liabilities
to differ, the Company may have to sell assets prior to their maturity and
realize losses. The Company controls its exposure to this risk by, among
other things, asset/liability matching techniques which attempt to match
the duration of assets and liabilities and utilization of derivative
instruments. Additionally, the Company includes contractual provisions
limiting withdrawal rights for certain of its products. A substantial
portion of the Company's liabilities are not subject to surrender or can be
surrendered only after deduction of a surrender charge or a market value
adjustment.
Credit risk is the risk that issuers of investments owned by the Company
may default or that other parties may not be able to pay amounts due to the
Company. The Company 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 approval procedures, limits and ongoing monitoring. Real estate and
mortgage loan investment risks are limited by diversification of geographic
location and property type. Management does not believe that significant
concentrations of credit risk exist.
The Company is also exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance
by the counterparties to interest rate swap contracts and other derivative
securities. The Company manages this risk through credit approvals and
limits on exposure to any specific counterparty. However, the Company does
not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties.
The Company is subject to various state and Federal regulatory authorities.
The potential exists for changes in regulatory initiatives that can result
in additional, unanticipated expense to the Company. Existing Federal laws
and regulations affect the taxation of life insurance or annuity products
and insurance companies. There can be no assurance as to what, if any,
cases might be decided or future legislation might be enacted, or if
decided or enacted, whether such cases or legislation would contain
provisions with possible negative effects on the Company's life insurance
or annuity products.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 1998
financial statement presentation.

2. STATUTORY RESULTS (Continued)
RISK-BASED CAPITAL
Risk-based capital is a method developed by the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC") to measure the minimum amount of capital
appropriate for an insurance company to support its overall business
operations in consideration of its size and risk profile. The formulas for
determining the amount of risk-based capital specify various weighting
factors that are applied to financial balances or various levels of
activity based on the perceived degree of risk. The adequacy of a company's
actual capital is measured by comparing it to the risk-based capital as
determined by the formulas. Companies below minimum risk-based capital
requirements are classified within certain levels, each of which requires
specified corrective action. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, Pacific Life
and PM Group exceeded the minimum risk-based capital requirements.
CODIFICATION
In March 1998, the NAIC adopted the Codification of Statutory Accounting
Principles ("Codification"). The Codification, which is intended to
standardize regulatory accounting and reporting for the insurance industry,
is proposed to be effective January 1, 2001. However, statutory accounting
principles will continue to be established by individual state laws and
permitted practices and it is uncertain when, or if, the states of
California and Arizona will require adoption of Codification for the
preparation of statutory financial statements. The Company has not
finalized the quantification of the effects of Codification on its
statutory financial statements.
DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS
Dividend payments by Pacific Life to its parent in any 12-month period
cannot exceed the greater of 10% of statutory capital and surplus as of the
preceding year-end or the statutory net gain from operations for the
previous calendar year, without prior approval from the Insurance
Department of the State of California. Based on this limitation and 1998
statutory results, Pacific Life could pay approximately $240.9 million in
dividends in 1999 without prior approval. No dividends were paid during
1998.
Extraordinary dividends to Pacific Life from PM Group are subject to
regulatory restrictions and approvals by the Insurance Department of the
State of Arizona, PM Group's state of domicile. The maximum amount of
ordinary dividends that can be paid by PM Group without restriction cannot
exceed the lesser of 10% of surplus as regards policyholders, or the
statutory net gain from operations. PM Group received approval to pay
dividends of $14 million and $25 million for the years ended December 31,
1997 and 1996 of which $8 million and $18 million, respectively, were
considered extraordinary. No dividends were paid during 1998.
PERMITTED PRACTICE
As discussed in Note 1, the Company beneficially owns approximately 33% of
the outstanding General and Limited Partner units in PIMCO Advisors L.P. as
of December 31, 1998. Net cash distributions received on these units are
recorded as income as permitted by the Insurance Department of the State of
California for statutory accounting purposes.
3. CLOSED BLOCK
In connection with the Conversion, an arrangement known as a closed block
(the "Closed Block"), was established, for dividend purposes only, for the
exclusive benefit of certain individual life insurance policies that had an
experience based dividend scale for 1997. The Closed Block was designed to
give reasonable assurance to holders of Closed Block policies that policy
dividends will not change solely as a result of the Conversion.
Assets of Pacific Life have been allocated to the Closed Block in an amount
that produces cash flows, which, together with anticipated revenues, are
expected to be sufficient to support the policies. Pacific Life is not

3. CLOSED BLOCK (Continued)
required to support the payment of dividends on these policies from its
general funds. The Closed Block will continue in effect until either the
last policy is no longer in force, or the dissolution of the Closed Block.
Total assets of $311.6 million and $316.2 million and total liabilities of
$352.8 million and $356.0 million for the Closed Block are included in
other assets and other liabilities, respectively, on the accompanying
consolidated statements of financial condition as of December 31, 1998 and
1997, respectively. The contribution to income from the Closed Block of
$5.1 million and $5.7 million, consisting of net revenues and expenses
generated by the Closed Block, is included in other income on the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the years ended
December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
4. REHABILITATION OF FIRST CAPITAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
On September 30, 1997, PCL completed the rehabilitation of FCL pursuant to
a five-year rehabilitation plan approved by the California Superior Court
and the Insurance Department of the State of California (the
"Rehabilitation Plan"). Under the terms of the Rehabilitation Plan, FCL's
insurance policies in force, primarily individual annuities and universal
life insurance, were restructured and assumed by PCL on December 31, 1992,
pursuant to an assumption reinsurance agreement and asset purchase
agreement. On October 30, 1997, PCL was merged into Pacific Life, with
Pacific Life as the surviving entity.
5. ACQUISITION OF INSURANCE BLOCKS OF BUSINESS
On June 1, 1997, Pacific Life acquired a block of corporate-owned life
insurance ("COLI") policies from Confederation Life Insurance Company
(U.S.) in Rehabilitation, which is currently under rehabilitation
("Confederation Life"), which consisted of approximately 38,000 policies
having a face amount of insurance of $8.6 billion and reserves of
approximately $1.7 billion. The assets received as part of this acquisition
amounted to approximately $1.2 billion in cash and approximately $0.4
billion in policy loans. This block is primarily non-leveraged COLI.
The remaining cost of acquiring this business, representing the amount
equal to the excess of the estimated fair value of the reserves assumed
over the estimated fair value of the assets acquired, amounted to $36.5
million and $43.4 million as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively,
and is included in deferred policy acquisition costs on the accompanying
consolidated statements of financial condition. Amortization of this asset
for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 was $7.7 million and $0.9
million, respectively, and is included in commission expenses on the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
In January 1999, Pacific Life signed a definitive agreement to acquire a
payout annuity block of business from Confederation Life. This block of
business consists of approximately 18,000 policies, having reserves
amounting to approximately $2.0 billion. The transaction is subject to
various regulatory and Court approvals and is anticipated to close during
1999.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
7. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value
of these financial instruments as of December 31, 1998 and 1997:
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 carrying amounts of policy loans are a reasonable estimate of their
fair values.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The carrying amounts of these items are a reasonable estimate of their fair
values.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Derivatives are financial instruments whose value or cash flows are
"derived" from another source, such as an underlying security. They can
facilitate total return and, when used for hedging, they achieve the lowest
cost and most efficient execution of positions. Derivatives can also be
used to leverage by using very large notional amounts or by creating
formulas that multiply changes in the underlying security. The Company's
approach is to avoid highly leveraged or overly complex investments. The
Company 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 as well as for facilitating total
return. Risk is limited through modeling derivative performance in product
portfolios for hedging and setting loss limits in total return portfolios.
Derivatives used by the Company involve elements of credit risk and market
risk in excess of amounts recognized in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements. The notional amounts of these instruments reflect the
extent of involvement in the various types of financial instruments. The
estimated fair values of these instruments are based on dealer quotations
or internal price estimates believed to be comparable to dealer quotations.
These amounts estimate what the Company would have to pay or receive if the
contracts were terminated at that time. The Company determines, on an
individual counterparty basis, the need for collateral or other security to
support financial instruments with off-balance sheet counterparty risk.

</TABLE>
Interest Rate Floors, Caps, Options and Swaptions
-------------------------------------------------
The Company uses interest rate floors, caps, options and swaptions to hedge
against fluctuations in interest rates and to take positions in its total
return portfolios. Interest rate floor agreements entitle the Company to
receive the difference when the current rate of the underlying index is
below the strike rate. Interest rate cap agreements entitle the Company to
receive the difference when the current rate of the underlying index is
above the strike rate. Options purchased involve the right, but not the
obligation, to purchase the underlying securities at a specified price
during a given time period. Swaptions are options to enter into a swap
transaction at a specified price. The Company uses written covered call
options on a limited basis. Gains and losses on covered calls are offset by
gains and losses on the underlying position. Floors, caps and options are
reported as assets and options written are reported as liabilities in the
accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition. Cash
requirements for these instruments are generally limited to the premium
paid by the Company at acquisition. The purchase premium of these
instruments is amortized on a constant effective yield basis and included
as a component of net investment income in the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations over the term of the agreement. Interest rate
floors and caps, options and swaptions mature during the years 1999 through
2017.
Interest Rate Swap Contracts
----------------------------
The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk and to
take positions in its total return portfolios. The interest rate swap
agreements generally involve the exchange of fixed and floating rate
interest payments or the exchange of floating to floating interest payments
tied to different indexes. Generally, no premium is paid to enter into the
contract and no principal payments are made by either party. The amounts to
be received or paid pursuant to these agreements are accrued and recognized
through an adjustment to net investment income in the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations over the life of the agreements. The
interest rate swap contracts mature during the years 1999 through 2021.

Pacific Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
7. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)
Asset Swap Contracts
--------------------
The Company uses asset swap contracts to manage interest rate and equity
risk to better match portfolio duration to liabilities. Asset swap
contracts involve the exchange of upside equity potential for fixed income
streams. The amounts to be received or paid pursuant to these agreements
are accrued and recognized through an adjustment to net investment income
in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations over the life of
the agreements. The asset swap contracts mature during the years 2000
through 2005.
Credit Default and Total Return Swaps
-------------------------------------
The Company uses credit default and total return swaps to take advantage of
market opportunities. Credit default swaps involve the receipt of fixed
rate payments in exchange for assuming potential credit exposure of an
underlying security. Total return swaps involve the exchange of floating
rate payments for the total return performance of a specified index or
market. The amounts to be received or paid pursuant to these agreements are
accrued and recognized through an adjustment to net investment income in
the accompanying consolidated statements of operations over the life of the
agreements. Credit default and total return swaps mature during the years
1999 through 2028.
Financial Futures Contracts
---------------------------
The Company uses exchange-traded financial futures contracts to hedge cash
flow timing differences between assets and liabilities and overall
portfolio duration. Assets and liabilities are rarely acquired or sold at
the same time, which creates a need to hedge their change in value during
the unmatched period. In addition, foreign currency futures may be used to
hedge foreign currency risk on non-U.S. dollar denominated securities.
Financial futures contracts obligate the holder to buy or sell the
underlying financial instrument at a specified future date for a set price
and may be settled in cash or by delivery of the financial instrument.
Price changes on futures are settled daily through the required margin cash
flows. The notional amounts of the contracts do not represent future cash
requirements, as the Company intends to close out open positions prior to
expiration.
Foreign Currency Derivatives
----------------------------
The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts and swaps to
hedge against fluctuations in foreign currency exposure. Foreign currency
derivatives involve the exchange of foreign currency denominated payments
for U.S. dollar denominated payments. Gains and losses on foreign exchange
forward contracts offset losses and gains, respectively, on the related
foreign currency denominated assets. The amounts to be received or paid
under the foreign currency swaps are accrued and recognized through an
adjustment to net investment income in the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations over the life of the agreements. Foreign currency
derivatives expire during the years 1999 through 2013.
GUARANTEED INTEREST CONTRACTS AND DEPOSIT LIABILITIES
The estimated fair value of fixed maturity guaranteed interest contracts is
estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar
remaining maturities. The estimated fair value of deposit liabilities with
no defined maturities is the amount payable on demand.
ANNUITY LIABILITIES
The estimated fair value of annuity liabilities approximates carrying value
and primarily includes policyholder deposits and accumulated credited
interest.

SHORT-TERM DEBT
The carrying amount of short-term debt is a reasonable estimate of its fair

SURPLUS NOTES

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK
Pacific Life has issued certain contracts to 401(k) plans totaling $1.6
billion as of December 31, 1998, pursuant to the terms of which the 401(k)
plan retains direct ownership and control of the assets related to these
contracts. Pacific Life agrees to provide benefit responsiveness in the
event that plan benefit requests exceed plan cash flows. In return for this
guarantee, Pacific Life receives a fee which varies by contract. Pacific
Life sets the investment guidelines to provide for appropriate credit
quality and cash flow matching.

2023. Interest is payable semiannually on June 30 and December 30. The
surplus notes may not be redeemed at the option of Pacific Life or any
holder of the surplus notes. The surplus notes are unsecured and
subordinated to all present and future senior indebtedness and policy
claims of Pacific Life. Each payment of interest on and the payment of
principal of the surplus notes may be made only with the prior approval of
the Insurance Commissioner of the State of California. Interest expense
amounted to $11.8 million for each of the years ended December 31, 1998,
1997 and 1996 and is included in net investment income on the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations.
10. INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. The
deferred tax consequences of changes in tax rates or laws must be computed
on the amounts of temporary differences and carryforwards existing at the
date a new tax law is enacted. Recording the effects of a change involves
adjusting deferred tax liabilities and assets with a corresponding charge or
credit recognized in the provision for income taxes. The objective is to
measure a deferred tax liability or asset using the enacted tax rates and
laws expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which the
deferred tax liability or asset is expected to be settled or realized.
The provision for income taxes is as follows:

13. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company's six operating segments are Individual Insurance,
Institutional Products Group, Annuities, Group Employee Benefits, Broker-
Dealers and Investment Management. These segments have been identified
based on differences in products and services offered. All other activity
is included in Corporate and Other.
The Individual Insurance segment offers universal life, variable universal
life and other life insurance products to individuals, small businesses and
corporations through a network of distribution channels that include branch
offices, marketing organizations, national accounts and a national producer
group. The Institutional Products Group segment offers investment and
annuity products to pension fund sponsors and other institutional investors
primarily through its home office marketing team. The Annuities segment
offers variable and fixed annuities to individuals, small businesses and
qualified plans through financial institutions, National Association of
Securities Dealers ("NASD") firms, and regional and national wirehouses.
The Group Employee Benefits segment offers group life, health and dental
insurance, and stop loss insurance products to corporate, government and
labor-management-negotiated plans. The group life, health and dental
insurance is distributed through a network of sales offices and the stop
loss insurance is distributed through a network of third party
administrators. The Broker-Dealers segment includes five NASD registered
firms that provide securities and affiliated insurance brokerage services
and investment advisory services through more than 3,100 registered
representatives. The Investment Management segment is primarily comprised
of the Company's investment in PIMCO Advisors (Note 1). PIMCO Advisors
offers a diversified range of investment products through separately
managed accounts, and institutional, retail and offshore funds.
Corporate and Other primarily includes investment income, expenses and
assets not attributable to the major segments and the operations of the
Company's reinsurance subsidiary located in the United Kingdom. Corporate
and Other also includes the elimination of intersegment revenues, expenses
and assets.

segment income and assets as it uses to measure its consolidated net income
and assets. Net investment income and capital gains are allocated based on
invested assets purchased and held as is required for transacting the
business of that segment. Overhead expenses are allocated based on services
provided. Interest expense is allocated based on the short-term borrowing
needs of the segment and is included in net investment income. The income
tax provision is allocated based on each segment's actual tax liability.
Intersegment revenues include commissions paid by the Individual Insurance
segment and the Annuities segment for variable product sales to the Broker-
Dealers segment. Investment Management segment assets have been reduced by
an intersegment note payable of $110 million as of December 31, 1998. The
related intersegment note receivable is included in Corporate and Other
segment assets.
The Company generates substantially all of its revenues and income from
customers located in the United States. Additionally, substantially all of
the Company's assets are located in the United States.
Depreciation expense and capital expenditures are not material and have not

14. PENSION PLANS, POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS AND OTHER PLANS
PENSION PLANS
Pacific Life has defined benefit pension plans which cover all eligible
employees who have one year of continuous employment and have attained age
21. The full-benefit vesting period for all participants is five years.
Benefits for employees are based on years of service and the highest five
consecutive years of compensation during the last ten years of employment.
Pacific Life's funding policy is to contribute amounts to the plan
sufficient to meet the minimum funding requirements set forth in the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, plus such additional
amounts as may be determined appropriate. Contributions are intended to
provide not only for benefits attributed to employment to date but also for
those expected to be earned in the future. All such contributions are made
to a tax-exempt trust. Plan assets consist primarily of group annuity
contracts issued by Pacific Life, as well as mutual funds managed by an
affiliate of Pacific Life.
Components of net periodic pension cost are as follows:

In determining the actuarial present value of the projected benefit
obligation as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the weighted average discount
rate used was 6.5% and 7.0%, respectively, and the rate of increase in
future compensation levels was 5.0% and 5.5%, respectively. The expected
long-term rate of return on plan assets was 8.5% in 1998 and 1997.
In connection with the merger of PCL into Pacific Life as discussed in Note
4, Pacific Life assumed sponsorship of PCL's defined benefit pension plan.
This pension plan provides for retirement income benefits at age 65 with
reduced benefits for early retirement. Effective December 31, 1997, PCL's
defined benefit plan merged into Pacific Life's plan. All benefits
associated with PCL's plan remain unchanged subsequent to the merger.
POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
Pacific Life 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 Life'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
96

coinsurance, and require retirees to make contributions which can be
adjusted annually. Pacific Life's commitment to qualified employees who
retire after April 1, 1994 is limited to specific dollar amounts.
Pacific Life 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 net periodic postretirement benefit cost for the years ended December
31, 1998, 1997 and 1996 is $0.7 million, $0.8 million and $1.4 million,
respectively. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the accumulated benefit
obligation is $19.3 million and $20.0 million, respectively. The fair value
of the plan assets as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 is zero. The amount of
accrued benefit cost included in other liabilities on the accompanying
consolidated statements of financial condition is $25.3 million and $26.0
million as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
The Plans include both indemnity and HMO coverage. The assumed health care
cost trend rate used in measuring the accumulated benefit obligation for
indemnity coverage was 8% and 9% for 1998 and 1997, respectively, and is
assumed to decrease gradually to 3.5% in 2003 and remain at that level
thereafter. The assumed health care cost trend rate used in measuring the
accumulated benefit obligation for HMO coverage was 7% and 8% for 1998 and
1997, respectively, and is assumed to decrease gradually to 3% in 2003 and
remain at that level thereafter.
The amount reported is materially effected by the health care cost trend
rate assumptions. If the health care cost trend rate assumptions were
increased by 1%, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation as of
December 31, 1998 would be increased by 8.0%, and the aggregate of the
service and interest cost components of the net periodic benefit cost would
increase by 7.5%. If the health care cost trend rate assumptions were
decreased by 1%, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation as of
December 31, 1998 would be decreased by 6.8%, and the aggregate of the
service and interest cost components of the net periodic benefit cost would
decrease by 6.5%.
The discount rate used in determining the accumulated postretirement
benefit obligation is 6.5% and 7.0% for 1998 and 1997, respectively.
OTHER PLANS
Pacific Life provides a voluntary Retirement Incentive Savings Plan
("RISP") pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code covering
all eligible employees of the Company. Effective October 1, 1997, Pacific
Life's RISP changed the matching percentage of each employee's
contributions from 50% to 75%, up to a maximum of 6% of eligible employee
compensation and restricted the matched investment to an Employee Stock
Ownership Plan ("ESOP") sponsored by Pacific LifeCorp. The ESOP was formed
at the time of the Conversion and is currently only available to the
participants of the RISP in the form of matching contributions.
Pacific Life also has a deferred compensation plan which permits certain
employees to defer portions of their compensation and earn a guaranteed
interest rate on the deferred amounts. The interest rate is determined
annually and is guaranteed for one year. The compensation which has been
deferred has been accrued and the primary expense, other than compensation,
related to this plan is interest on the deferred amounts.
The Company also has performance based incentive compensation plans for its
employees.
15. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Pacific Life serves as the investment advisor for the Pacific Select Fund,
the investment vehicle provided to the Company's variable life and variable
annuity contractholders. Pacific Life charges fees based upon the net asset
value of the portfolios of the Pacific Select Fund, which amounted to $42.1
million, $27.5 million and $14.3 million for the years ended December 31,
1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. In addition, Pacific Life provides
certain support services to the Pacific Select Fund for an administration
fee which is based on an
97

allocation of actual costs. Such administration fees amounted to $232,000,
$165,000 and $108,000 for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
PIMCO Advisors provides investment advisory services to the Company for
which the fees amounted to $16.9 million, $11.4 million and $6.2 million
for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
Included in equity securities on the accompanying consolidated statements
of financial condition are investments in mutual funds and other
investments managed by PIMCO Advisors which amounted to $40.3 million and
$46.5 million as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
Pacific Life provides certain support services to PIMCO Advisors. Charges
for these services are based on an allocation of actual costs and amounted
to $1.2 million, $1.2 million and $1.4 million for the years ended December
31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
16. TERMINATION AND NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENTS
Effective November 15, 1994, in connection with the PIMCO Advisors
transaction (Note 1), termination and non-competition agreements were
entered into with certain former key employees of PAM's subsidiaries. These
agreements provide terms and conditions for the allocation of future
proceeds received from distributions and sales of certain PIMCO Advisors
units and other noncompete payments. When the amount of future obligations
to be made to a key employee is determinable, a liability for such amount
is established.

18. LITIGATION
The Company was named in civil litigation proceedings similar to other
litigation brought against many life insurers alleging misconduct in the
sale of products, sometimes referred to as market conduct litigation. The
class of plaintiffs included, with some exceptions, all persons who owned,
as of December 31, 1997 (or as of the date of policy termination, if
earlier), individual whole life, universal life or variable life insurance
policies sold by the Company on or after January 1, 1982. The Company has
settled this litigation pursuant to a finalsettlement agreement approved by
the Court in November 1998. The settlement agreement is currently being
implemented. The cost of the settlement has been included in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations during the three years
ended December 31, 1998.
Further, the Company is a respondent in a number of other legal
proceedings, some of which involve allegations for extra-contractual
damages. In the opinion of management, the outcome of the foregoing
proceedings is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the
consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.

Illustrations 1 through 10, which appear on the following pages, illustrate how
the death benefit, accumulated value and net cash surrender value of a
hypothetical policy may vary over an extended period of time, based on certain
hypothetical rates of return.
These illustrations are based on a hypothetical policy with the following
characteristics:

Assumptions
The illustrations are based on the guideline premium test. Here are the
assumptions we're using:
. The hypothetical rates of return are equal to constant gross annual rates of
0%, 6% and 12%.
. All premium payments are made at the beginning of the policy year.
. An amount equal to the annual premium, after taxes, is invested to earn
interest at 5% compounded annually for the second column of each table, Total
premiums paid plus interest at 5%, which shows the amount that would
accumulate.
. No policy loans have been taken out.
. The amounts shown for the death benefits, accumulated values and net cash
surrender values reflect charges deducted from the variable accounts. This
means that the net investment return on the variable accounts is lower than
the gross investment return on the assets.
. The amounts shown for the death benefits, accumulated values and net cash
surrender values also reflect premium loads, administrative charges and

expenses are shown in An overview of . Illustrations 1 to 8 assume total annual advisory fees and expenses of .77%
Pacific Select Estate Preserver. of total average daily net assets of the fund. This reflects average advisory
fees of .69% and average expenses of .08% based upon fees and expenses of
portfolios available as investment options under the policy.
. Illustrations 9 and 10 assume total annual advisory fees and expenses of .72%
of total average daily net assets of the fund. This reflects weighted average
advisory fees of .65% and weighted average expenses of .08% based upon fees
and expenses of portfolios available as investment options under the policy.

<TABLE>
<S> <C>
. There are no charges against the variable accounts for income taxes but we
reserve the right to impose charges in the future.
Things to keep in mind
Here are a few things to keep in mind when reviewing the illustrations:
. The values shown would be different if, although the gross annual investment
rates of return averaged 0%, 6% or 12% over a period of years, they also rose
above or fell below those averages for individual policy years.
. After we've deducted the charges and fund expenses described in the
assumptions above, the illustrated gross annual investment rates of return of
0%, 6% and 12% correspond to approximate net annual rates of return of -0.77%,
5.18%, and 11.14%, for illustrations 1 to 8 and -0.72%, 5.24% and 11.19% for
illustrations 9 and 10.
. The amounts shown would be different if unisex insurance rates were used or
if the people insured by the policy were females and insurance rates for
females were used.
. For the illustrations that assume current cost of insurance rates, the
amounts shown would be different if either person insured by the policy was a
smoker and rates for smokers were used.
. The fund expenses used in the illustrations do not include foreign taxes.
Here's what foreign taxes were for the year ended December 31, 1998:

APPENDIX A - JOINT EQUAL AGE
<S> <C>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An example Joint equal age is a calculation that combines the ages and insurance risks of
two people insured by a policy. It changes many possible combinations of ages,
This example assumes a male smoker risk classes, nonstandard ratings and genders for the two people insured by the
who is age 65 and a female nonsmoker policy into a two life status. With joint equal age, we assume that both people
who is age 55 and has a Table D have the same age, gender (both always male), and risk class (both smoker or
nonstandard rating. both nonsmoker).
Here's how we calculate the joint equal How we use joint equal age
age. Using the joint equal age of the two people insured by the policy eliminates
many of the tables needed when age rates are used. We use the joint equal age
Step 1 for calculating the following:
. certain policy charges. We use joint equal age to determine the rates per

Adjusted ages after Step 2: Step 1 Adjust ages for smoker status

number of years to the age of the smoker. We do not adjust the age of the

Step 3 Adjust ages for table ratings
We add years to the adjusted age in Step 2, based on the nonstandard table
rating for each person insured by the policy. The table below shows how we make
the adjustment.
Table ratings represent a multiple of standard mortality rates. Ratings other
than 0 represent nonstandard ratings.

We cap the adjusted age for nonstandard at age 100.
For people who are uninsurable, the adjusted age will always be 100, regardless
of their age and gender. We reserve the right to reject an application for a
policy.
After Steps 1 through 3, we have each person's adjusted age.
Step 4 Determine the add-on factor
We subtract the younger adjusted age from the older adjusted age. We find the
difference between the two in the table below and go across the row to
determine the add-on factor.

Step 5 Calculate joint equal age
We add the add-on factor to the younger adjusted age (from Step 3).
The sum is the joint equal age.

Illustrations 1 and 2, which appear on the following pages, illustrate how the
death benefit, accumulated value and net cash surrender value of a hypothetical
policy may vary over an extended period of time, based on certain hypothetical
rates of return.
These illustrations are based on a hypothetical policy with the following
characteristics:

. All premium payments are made at the beginning of the policy year.
. An amount equal to the annual premium, after taxes, is invested to earn
interest at 5% compounded annually for the second column of each table, Total
premiums paid plus interest at 5%, which shows the amount that would
accumulate.
. No policy loans have been taken out.
. The amounts shown for the death benefits, accumulated values and net cash
surrender values reflect charges deducted from the variable accounts. This
means that the net investment return on the variable accounts is lower than
the gross investment return on the assets.
. The amounts shown for the death benefits, accumulated values and net cash
surrender values also reflect premium loads, administrative charges and
mortality and expense risk charges.

reserve the right to impose charges in the future.
Things to keep in mind
Here are a few things to keep in mind when reviewing the illustrations:
. The values shown would be different if, although the gross annual investment
rates of return averaged 0%, 6% or 12% over a period of years, they also rose
above or fell below those averages for individual policy years.
. After we've deducted the charges and fund expenses described in the
assumptions above, the illustrated gross annual investment rates of return of
0%, 6% and 12% correspond to approximate net annual rates of return of -.80%,
5.15%, and 11.10%.
. The amounts shown would be different if unisex insurance rates were used or
if the people insured by the policy were females and insurance rates for
females were used.
. For the illustration that assumes current cost of insurance rates, the
amounts shown would be different if either person insured by the policy was a
smoker and rates for smokers were used.
. The portfolio expenses used in the illustrations do not include foreign
taxes. Here's what foreign taxes were for the year ended December 31, 1998:

ENDORSEMENT
(ADDING FIXED LT ACCOUNT)
This endorsement becomes part of the policy to which it is attached. Its
purpose is to provide another fixed-rate interest option, called the Fixed LT
Account. The following changes to your policy occur in the order in which they
appear in this endorsement.
The following is added to the Definitions section:
Fixed Options - consist of the Fixed Account and the Fixed LT Account, which
are part of our general account.
Investment Options - consist of the Variable Accounts and the Fixed Options.
The words "the Investment Options" replace the following:
- The words "the Variable Accounts and Fixed Account" occurring in the 2nd
paragraph of the Grace Period and Lapse subsection of the Premiums section;
and
- The words "each Variable Account and the Fixed Account" occurring in the
Monthly Deduction subsection of the Policy Charges section; and
- The words "the Fixed and Variable Accounts" wherever they occur throughout
the policy.
The words "the Fixed Account" wherever they occur throughout the policy are
replaced by "each Fixed Option".
The Fixed Account subsection of the Accumulated Value section is replaced by the
following:
Fixed Options - For each Fixed Option, the Accumulated Value on any date is:
- the Accumulated Value in the Fixed Option on the prior monthly payment
date, increased by interest;
- plus the amount of any premiums less Premium Load received and allocated to
the Fixed Option since the last monthly payment date, increased by
interest;
- minus the monthly deduction and other deductions due, if any, and assessed
against the Fixed Option, increased by interest;
- minus the amount of any withdrawals, or transfers from the Fixed Option,
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 Option, including transfers
from the Loan Account, since the last monthly payment date, increased by
interest.
The first paragraph of the Interest subsection of the Accumulated Value section
is replaced by the following:
Interest - We will credit interest on each Fixed Option and on the Loan
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 on the Fixed Options. Each Fixed Option may
have its own unique rate.
The Transfers subsection of the Accumulated Value section is replaced by the
following:
Transfers - After your initial Net Premium has been allocated according to
your instructions and while your policy is in force, you may, upon Written
Request, transfer your Accumulated Value, or a part of it, among the
Investment Options as provided in this subsection. No transfer may be made if
the policy is in a grace period and the required premium has not been paid.
Transfers from the Variable Accounts to the Fixed Options may be made only
during the policy month preceding each policy anniversary.
Page 1
<PAGE>
Transfers from the Fixed Account: Only one transfer from the Fixed Account
may be made in any twelve-month period. Transfers from the Fixed Account will
be limited to the greater of $5,000 or 25% of the Accumulated Value in the
Fixed Account.
Transfers from the Fixed LT Account: Only one transfer from the Fixed LT
Account may be made in any twelve-month period. Transfers from the Fixed LT
Account will be limited to the greater of $5,000 or 10% of the Accumulated
Value in the Fixed LT Account.
Allocations into the Fixed LT Account: We reserve the right to limit the
amount allocated to the Fixed LT Account to $1,000,000 during the most recent
12 months for all policies in which you have an ownership interest or to which
payments are made by a single payor. Allocations include Net Premium
payments, transfers and loan repayments. Any excess over $1,000,000 will be
transferred to your other Investment Options relative to your most recent
instructions. We may increase the $1,000,000 limit at any time at our sole
discretion. You may contact us to find out if a higher limit is in effect.
We reserve the right:
. to limit the size of transfers so that each transfer is at least $500;
. to require that the remaining balance in any account as a result of a
transfer be at least $500; and
. to assess a charge of $50 for each transfer exceeding 6 per policy year.
The Fixed Account subsection of the Payments section is re-titled to "Fixed
Options".
The Index entry "Fixed Account" is changed to "Fixed Options".

RE: Pacific Select Estate Preserver 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 Life Insurance Company, I have provided actuarial advice concerning:
The preparation of the Post-Effective Amendment No. 5 of the Registration
Statement on Form S-6 filed by Pacific 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 ages 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,
