THE AMERICAN FRANKLIN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
SEPARATE ACCOUNT VUL-2
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1995
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
The American Franklin Life Insurance Company (American Franklin) is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The Franklin Life Insurance Company.
American Franklin established Separate Account VUL-2 (Account) as a
unit investment trust registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940. The Account, which consists of ten investment divisions, was
established on April 9, 1991 in conformity with Illinois Insurance
Law. The assets in each division are invested in units of beneficial
interest (shares) of a designated portfolio (Portfolio) of two mutual
funds, sponsored by Fidelity Investments, Variable Insurance Products
Fund and Variable Insurance Products Fund II (Funds). The Money
Market, Equity-Income, Growth, Overseas, and High Income Divisions of
the Account are invested in shares of a corresponding Portfolio of
Variable Insurance Products Fund, while the Investment Grade Bond,
Asset Manager, Index 500, Asset Manager: Growth and Contrafund
Divisions of the Account are invested in shares of a corresponding
Portfolio of Variable Insurance Products Fund II. The Account's
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements of the Funds. The Account commenced operations on
September 30, 1991.
The Account was established by American Franklin to support the
operations of American Franklin's EquiBuilder II-TM- Flexible Premium
Variable Life Insurance Policies (EquiBuilder II Policies). The
Account also supports the operations of American Franklin's
EquiBuilder III-TM- Flexible Premium Variable Life Insurance Policies
(EquiBuilder III Policies) (the EquiBuilder II Policies and the
EquiBuilder III Policies are referred to collectively as the
Policies). At December 31, 1995, American Franklin had obtained the
necessary state insurance department approvals for the sale of the
EquiBuilder III Policies in 42 states.
Franklin Financial Services Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
The Franklin Life Insurance Company, acts as the principal
underwriter, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, of the
Policies. The assets of the Account are the property of American
Franklin. The portion of the Account's assets applicable to the
Policies is not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other
business American Franklin may conduct.
The net assets of the Account may not be less than the reserves
applicable to the Policies. Assets may also be set aside in American
Franklin's General Account based on the amounts allocated under the
Policies to American Franklin's Guaranteed Interest Division and for
policy loans. Additional assets are set aside in American Franklin's
General Account to provide for (i) the unearned portion of the monthly
charges for mortality costs and administrative expenses made under the
Policies and (ii) other policy benefits.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The significant accounting policies of the Account are as follows:
Investments in shares of the Funds are carried at fair value.
Investments in shares of the Funds are valued at the net asset values
of the respective Portfolios of the Funds corresponding to the
investment divisions of the Account. Investment transactions are
recorded on the trade date. Dividends are recorded as received.
Realized gains and losses on sales of the Funds' shares are determined
based on the specific identification method.
The operations of the Account are included in the federal income tax
return of American Franklin. Under the provisions of the Policies,
American Franklin has the right to charge the Account for federal
income tax attributable to the Account. No charge is currently being
made against the Account for such tax since, under current tax law,
American Franklin pays no tax on investment income and capital gains
reflected in variable life insurance policy reserves. However,
American Franklin retains the right to charge for any federal income
tax incurred which is attributable to the Account if the law is
changed. Charges for state and local taxes, if any, attributable to
the Account may also be made.

3. SALES AND ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGES
Certain jurisdictions require that deductions be made from premium
payments for taxes. The amount of such deductions varies and may be
up to 5% of the premium. With respect to the EquiBuilder III
Policies, American Franklin makes a sales expense deduction equal to
5% of each premium paid during any policy year up to a "target
premium", which is based on the annual premium for a fixed whole life
insurance policy on the life of the insured person (no sales expense
deduction is made for premiums in excess of the target premium paid
during that policy year). The balance remaining after any such
deduction, the net premium, is placed by American Franklin in a Policy
Account established for each policyowner. Each month American
Franklin makes a charge against each Policy Account for:
administrative expenses (currently $6 per month plus an additional
charge of $24 per month for each of the first 12 months a policy is in
effect); cost of insurance, which is based on the insured person's
age, sex, risk class, amount of insurance, and additional benefits, if
any. In addition, American Franklin will make charges for the
following: a partial withdrawal of net cash surrender value
(currently $25 or 2% of the amount withdrawn, whichever is less); an
increase in the face amount of insurance (currently a $1.50
administrative charge for each $1,000 increase up to a maximum charge
of $300); and a transfer between investment divisions in any policy
year in which four transfers have already been made (up to $25 for
each additional transfer in a given policy year). Charges may also be
made for providing more than one illustration of policy benefits to a
given policyholder. American Franklin assumes mortality and expense
risks related to the operations of the Account and deducts a charge
from the assets of the Account at an effective annual rate of .75% of
the Account's net assets to cover these risks. The total charges paid
by the Account to American Franklin were $7,806,000 in 1995.
During the first ten years a Policy is in effect, a surrender charge
may be deducted from a Policy Account by American Franklin if: the
Policy is surrendered for its net cash surrender value, the face
amount of the Policy is reduced or the Policy is permitted to lapse.
The maximum total surrender charge applicable to a particular Policy
is specified in the Policy and is equal to 50% of one target premium.
This maximum will not vary based on the amount of premiums paid or
when they are paid. At the end of the sixth policy year and at the
end of each of the four succeeding policy years, the maximum surrender
charge is reduced by an amount equal to 20% of the initial maximum
surrender charge until, after the end of the tenth policy year, there
is no surrender charge. Subject to the maximum surrender charge, the
surrender charge with respect to the EquiBuilder II Policies will
equal 30% of actual premiums paid during the first policy year up to
one target premium, plus 9% of all other premiums actually paid during
the first ten policy years, and the surrender charge with respect to
the EquiBuilder III Policies will equal 25% of actual premiums paid
during the first policy year up to one target premium, plus 9% of all
other premiums actually paid during the first ten policy years.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Board of Directors
The American Franklin Life Insurance Company
Policyowners of Separate Account VUL-2
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of Separate Account
VUL-2 (comprising, respectively, the Money Market, Equity-Income, Growth,
Overseas, High Income, Investment Grade Bond, Asset Manager, Index 500, Asset
Manager: Growth and Contrafund Divisions) as of December 31, 1995, and the
related statements of operations and changes in net assets for the Money Market,
Equity-Income, Growth, Overseas, High Income, Investment Grade Bond, Asset
Manager, and Index 500 Divisions for the year then ended and for the Asset
Manager: Growth and Contrafund Divisions for the period from May 1, 1995 (date
of inception) to December 31, 1995. These financial statements are the
responsibility of Separate Account VUL-2 management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The
statement of changes in net assets for the year ended December 31, 1994, was
audited by other auditors whose report dated February 1, 1995, expressed an
unqualified opinion on that statement.
We conducted our audit 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. Our procedures
included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 1995 by
correspondence with the custodian. 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
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the 1995 financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of each of the respective
Divisions constituting Separate Account VUL-2 at December 31, 1995, and the
results of their operations and changes in net assets for the Money Market,
Equity-Income, Growth, Overseas, High Income, Investment Grade Bond, Asset
Manager, and Index 500 Divisions for the year then ended and for the Asset
Manager: Growth and Contrafund Divisions for the period from May 1, 1995 (date
of inception) to December 31, 1995 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
