unit investment trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940
as amended, was established by Empire Fidelity Investments Life Insurance
Company (EFILI) on July 15, 1991 and exists in accordance with the
regulations of the New York Insurance Department. The account is a funding
vehicle for individual Retirement Reserves and Income Advantage variable
annuity contracts. EFILI is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fidelity
Investments Life Insurance Company which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
FMR Corp.
Beginning in 1995, EFILI added two new subaccounts to the Account; Asset
Manager: Growth and Contrafund.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Investments are made in the portfolios of the Variable Insurance Products
Fund and the Variable Insurance Products Fund II and are valued at the
reported net asset values of such portfolios. Transactions are recorded on
the trade date. Income from dividends is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Realized gains and losses on the sales of investments are computed on the
basis of the identified cost of the investment sold.
In addition to the Account, a contractholder may also allocate funds to the
Fixed Account, which is part of EFILI's general account. Because of
exemptive and exclusionary provisions, interests in the Fixed Account have
not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and EFILI's general
account has not been registered as an investment company under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.
Annuity reserves are computed for contracts in the income stage according
to the 1983a Individual Annuitant Mortality Table. The assumed investment
return is 3.5% unless the annuitant elects otherwise, in which case the
rate may vary from 3.5% to 7%, as regulated by the laws of New York. The
mortality risk is fully borne by EFILI and may result in additional amounts
being transferred into the Account by EFILI.
The operations of the Account are included in the federal income tax return
of EFILI, which is taxed as a Life Insurance Company under the provisions
of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code).
3. EXPENSES.
EFILI deducts a daily charge from the net assets of the Account (equivalent
to an effective annual rate of 1% of net assets) for administrative
expenses and for the assumption of mortality and expense risks. Under the
Retirement Reserves contract EFILI also deducts an annual maintenance
charge of $30 from the contract value. The maintenance charge is waived on
certain contracts. 
Under the current provisions of the Code, EFILI does not expect to incur
federal income taxes on the earnings of the Account to the extent the
earnings are credited under the contracts. EFILI incurs federal income
taxes on the difference between the financial statement carrying value of
reserves for contracts in the income stage and those reserves held for
federal income tax purposes. The tax effect of this temporary difference is
expected to be recovered by EFILI. As such, no charge is being made
currently to the Account for federal income taxes. EFILI will review
periodically the status of such decision based on changes in the tax law.
Such a charge may be made in future years for any federal income taxes that
would be attributable to the contracts.
4. AFFILIATED COMPANY TRANSACTIONS.
The contracts are distributed through Fidelity Brokerage Services, Inc.
(FBSI) and Fidelity Insurance Agency, Inc. (FIA), both of which are
affiliated with FMR Corp. FBSI is the distributor and principal underwriter
of the contracts. Fidelity Management & Research Company, an affiliate of
FMR Corp., acts as investment advisor to each portfolio. Fidelity
Investments Institutional Operations Co., an affiliate of FMR Corp., is the
transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the portfolios.
